Answer:
Increase by $31,500
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the operating income
First step is to calculate the Total relevant cost
DIFFERENTIAL ANALYSIS
MAKE BUY
Variable cost $144,900 $0
(2,100*$69)
Fixed cost $46,200 $0
(2,100*55*40%)
Purchase cost $0 (2100*76) = $159,600
Total relevant cost $191,100 $159,600
Now let determine the Increase or decrease of the company's operating income
Increase by =($191,100- $159,600)
Increase by = $31,500
Therefore Buying the valves from the outside supplier instead of making them would cause the company's operating income to: Increase by $31,500
Answer:
To create the collar, the customer would: <u>buy 1 PHLX 59 SF Call and sell 1 PHLX 61 SF Call.</u>
Explanation:
The meaning of a "collar" is that a put is bought at a strike price that is less than the price of the underlying instrument (this implies that a floor has been put on the price of the instrument); and that a call is disposed at a strike price which is higher than the price of the underlying instrument (this indicates that a ceiling above which the instrument will be called away has been created).
When a collar is put on the price, it indicates that the customer is majorly giving a guarantee for the underlying instrument's minimum and maximum price.
This should make the net cost of the collar to be close to zero due to the fact that the two contracts are "out the money" and also because the premium paid to buy the put is offset by the premium received when the call was sold.
Therefore, since customer in the question wishes to place a collar on the position using PHLX SF FLEX options, he would <u>buy 1 PHLX 59 SF Call and sell 1 PHLX 61 SF Call</u> to create the collar.
Answer:
23%
Explanation:
The computation of the average rate is shown below:
But before that following calculations to be done
Annual Depreciation is
= ($132,000 - $16,000) ÷ 10
= $11,600
The Annual Net Income would increase by
= $34,000 - $5,380 - $11,600
= $17,020
Now Average Investment is
= ($132,000 + $16,000) ÷ 2
= $74000
The Average rate of return is
= Increase in Annual Net Income ÷ Average Investment
= $17,020 ÷ $74,000
= 23%
Answer: b. Sales Returns, Wages, Machinery, Discount Allowed
Explanation:
Sales returns reduce the sales made. Sales are put on the credit side so transactions that will reduce sales such as sales returns would have to go on the debit side.
Wages are an expense and expenses are debited to show they are increasing so they have a debit balance.
Machinery is an asset and assets have debit balances.
Discount allowed reduces the sales balance and as mentioned above, transactions that reduce sales go on the debit side so this has a debit balance as well.
