Which of the following investments would have the highest future value at the end of 10 years? Assume that the effective annual

rate for all investments is the same and is greater than zero. a. Investment D pays $2,500 at the end of 10 years (just one payment). b. Investment A pays $250 at the beginning of every year for the next 10 years (a total of 10 payments). c. Investment E pays $250 at the end of every year for the next 10 years (a total of 10 payments). d. Investment C pays $125 at the beginning of every 6-month period for the next 10 years (a total of 20 payments).

Answer:

The investment that will have the highest future value is option b.

Explanation:

First lets suposse the effective annual rate is 10%  

a. Future value= $2,500  

c. First you must obtain the net present value of all cash flows with the formula attached, for example:  

NVP= ($250/(1+10%)^1)+($250/(1+10%^2)+($250/(1+10%^3)... and so on until year 10  

With the excel formula "NPV" you can calculate the net present value specifying the interest rate, the cash flows.  

The NPV= $1,536.14  

And then you calculate the future value of this answer with this formula:  

VF=VP(1+i)^n  

VF= $1,536.14*(1+10%)^10  

VF=$3,984.36  

b. If payments are due at the beginning of every year means that at year 0 you start with $250. You must calculate the NPV in this way  

NPV= $250+($250/(1+10%)^1)+ )+($250/(1+10%^2)+($250/(1+10%^3)... and so on until year 10  

NPV= $1,786,14

And then you calculate the future value of this answer:

VF= $1,786,14*(1+10%)^10  

VF=$4,632.79

d. First, you must convert the annual interest rate into semi-annually interest

10% Annually effective is 4,88% Semi-anually effective

NPV=$125+($125/(1+4,88%)^1)+ )+($125/(1+4,88%^2)+($125/(1+4,88%^3)... and so on until period 20

NPV=$1,698.75

And then you calculate the future value of this answer:

VF= $1,698 *(1+10%)^10  

VF=$4,405.37

The investment that will have the highest future value is option b.

Kenneth Corporation expects to incur indirect overhead costs of $166,400 per month and direct manufacturing costs of $22 per uni
Eva8 [605]

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1.  For Predetermined overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead for 4 months) ÷ (Total number of units)

where,

Total estimated direct manufacturing cost is

= $166,400 × 4 months

= $665,600

And, the total number of units is

= 4,700 units + 8,700 units + 4,300 units + 7,900 units

= 25,600 units

So, the predetermined overhead rate is

= $665,600 ÷ 25,600 units

= $26 per unit

2. Now the allocated cost for each month is shown below:

For January

= 4,700 units × $26

= $122,200

For February

= 8,700 units × $26

= $226,200

For March

= 4,300 units × $26

= $111,800

For April

= 7,900 units × $26

= $205,400

c. Now the total cost per unit is

= $22 + $26

= $48 per unit

Direct Labor Variances The following data relate to labor cost for production of 20,000 cellular telephones: Actual: 8,450 hrs.
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is given below:

a)  

Direct labor rate variance = (Actual rate - Standard rate) × Actual hours  

= ($22.50 - $23) × 8,450 hours

= -$4,225.00 Favorable

Direct labor time variance = (Actual hours - Standard hours) × Standard rate  

= (8,450 hours - 8,400 hours) × $23

= $ 1,150.00 Unfavorable

Total direct labor cost variance is

= Direct labor rate variance + Direct labor time variance  

= $4,225 Favorable + $1,150 Unfavorable

= -$3,075.00 Favorable

b.  In the case when the employees are not much experienced or they are poorly trained so the less experience cause to less performance due to which the actual time needed should be more than the standard one
