Answer:

The supplier should ship 2 days using B as it yields the lowest cost.

Explanation:

Base on the scenario been described in the question, we can use the following method to solve the question

Units 410

Unit price $ 156.00

total cost of product to be shipped = (Unit price * Units) = 410*156 $ 63,960.00

Holding cost = 39% ,39%*63960 $ 24,944.400

Holding cost for 1 day = 24944.40/365 $ 68.341

Shipper A

Alternative Shippping cost Holding days Holding days * Holding cost for 1 day Total cost = Shipping + holding cost

2-Day $ 538.00 2 $ 136.682 $ 674.68

3 day $ 472.00 3 $ 205.022 $ 677.02

9 day $ 406.00 9 $ 615.067 $ 1,021.07

Shipper b

Alternative Shippping cost Holding days Holding days * Holding cost for 1 day Total cost = Shipping + holding cost

2-Day $ 529.00 2 $ 136.682 $ 665.68

4 day $ 455.00 4 $ 273.363 $ 728.36

7 Day $ 428.00 7 $ 478.386 $

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

$359,000

Explanation:

Total Bond issue costs  can be calculated by adding all the cost related to the issue of bond.

Bond Certificate printing cost        =    $24,000

Legal fees paid                                =    $90,000

CPA registration                               =    $15,000

Underwriting Commission                =   $230,000

Total Bond issue costs                      =   $359,000

After adding all the cost we reached at 359,000 and its closest to Option A 360,000

Your project sponsor has asked you to explain the negative or threat risk response strategies and the opportunity or positive ri
Semmy [17]

Answer: kindly check explanation

Explanation: Risk as related to a project may be reffered to as occurrences or factors which could affect a project, they may not always be negative as usually perceived, they may be positive. Hence, when a perceived negative risk is perceived, it is essential to escalate and ensure that the necessary stakeholders become aware so as to find ways of mitigating or avoiding such happening.

In the case of positive risk or opportunity, escalating is equally important as it ensures relevant executives are aware and hence work on ways or processes to foster, embrace and exploit the advantage.

Income Statement For the Year Ended on December 31 J&H Corp. Industry Average Net sales $39,000,000 $48,750,000 Operating co
noname [10]

Answer:

1.J&H Corp’s NOPAT is $3,744,000, which is $936,000 lower than industry average of $4,680,000

2.Net operating working capital of $18,000 is been used by the company.

3.J&H Corp will be generating $5,019,600 in net cash flow from its operations and an accounting profit of $3,369,600

4.Therefore the firm uses $978,000 of total net operating capital to run the business.

Explanation:

J&H Corp

1. Calculation for NOPAT

NOPAT = 6,240,000 x (1- 40%)

= 6,240,000 x (1 – 0.4)

= 6,240,000 x 0.6

= $3,744,000

Calculation for Industry Average

Industry Average= 7,800,000 x (1- 40%)

7,800,000×(1-0.4)

7,800,000×0.6

=$4,680,000

Hence:

($4,680,000-$3,744,000)=$936,000

J&H Corp’s NOPAT is $3,744,000, which is $936,000 lower than industry average of $4,680,000

2:Calculation for Net Operating Working Capital

Net Operating Working Capital= Current Operating Assets − Current Operating Liabilities

Net Operating Working Capital= (Cash + Accounts Receivable + Inventories)− (Accounts Payable + Accrued Expenses)

Short term investments won't be included in Current Operating Assets

Given current assets = $600,000 ×12% in Short term investments = $72,000

Therefore Current Operating Assets will be: 600,000 – 72,000 = $528,000

Current Operating Liabilities = $510,000

Net Operating Working Capital

= $528,000 - $510,000 = $18,000

Net operating working capital of $18,000 is been used by the company.

3. Calculation for Net cash flow operations

Net cash flow from operations = Net income + Depreciation & Amortization + Changes in Working Capital

Changes in working capital = Working capital of the year

= $600,000 - $510,000

= $90,000

Net cash flow from operations will be:

$3,369,600 + $1,560,000 + $90,000 = $5,019,600

The Accounting profit will be the total revenue less the explicit costs

Explicit costs includes operating expenses, depreciation, interest and taxes.

Hence, the Accounting Profit will be :

Net income = $3,369,600

J&H Corp will be generating $5,019,600 in net cash flow from its operations and an accounting profit of $3,369,600

4. Calculation for the Total net operating capital

Total net operating capital = Net Operating Working Capital + Non-current Operating Assets

$528,000 - $510,000 = $18,000

Net Operating Working Capital = $18,000

Non-current Operating Assets = operating long term assets = $960,000

Total net operating capital

= $18,000 + $960,000

= $978,000

Therefore the firm uses $978,000 of total net operating capital to run the business. Thus the value is been computed as the sum of J&H Corp’s net operating working capital and its Non-current Operating Assets.
