Answer:

Without a good credit score and history, the experts say, it's more difficult to qualify for a mortgage or car loan – and more expensive, too, because you won't get the best interest rates. In many states, bad credit can even raise your insurance premiums, cost you a rental apartment, or make it harder to get hired.

Explanation:

Computation of raw material purchases

Raw material consumption

Qtr No of Units per qtr Total Requirement

1 9,000 * 7 gms per unit = 63,000 gms

2 12,000 * 7 gms per unit = 84,000 gms

3 11,000 * 7 gms per unit = 77,000 gms

4 10,000 * 7 gms per unit = 70,000 gms

Total Year 294,000 gms

Raw Material Purchases for each quarter

Purchases = Closing inventory + Consumption - Opening inventory

1 21,000 (84,000gms * 25 % ) + 63,000 - 15.750 = 68,250 gms

2 19,250 (77,000gms* 25 %) + 84,000 - 21,000 = 82,250 gms

3 17,500 ( 70,000gms* 25 %) + 77,000-19,250 = 75,250 gms

4 8,000 ( As per data) + 70,000-17.500 = 60,500 gms

Total year purchases = = 286,250 gms

Cost of purchases

Quarter 1 68,250 gms * $ 1.20 = $ 81,900

Quarter 2 82,250 gms * $ 1.20 = $ 98,700

Quarter 3 75,250 gms * $ 1,20 = $ 90,300

Quarter 4 60,500 gms * $ 1,20 = $ 72,600

Total purchases $ 343,500

Computation of cash disbursements for purchases

Quarter 1 Payments = Opening Payables + 60 % of quarter 1

$ 5,600 + ( 60 %* $ 81,900) = $ 5,600 + $ 49,140 = $ 54,740

Quarter 2 payments

(40 % of quarter 1) + ( 60 % of quarter 2)

($ 81,900 * 40 %) + ( $ 98,700 * 60 %)

$ 32,760 + $ 59,220 = $ 91,980

Quarter 3 payments

(40 % of quarter 2) + ( 60 % of quarter 3)

($ 98,700 * 40 %) + ( $ 90,300 * 60 %)

$ 39,480 + $ 54,180 = $ 93.660

Quarter 4 payments

(40 % of quarter 3) + ( 60 % of quarter 4)

($ 90,300 * 40 %) + ( $ 72,600 * 60 %)

$ 36,120 + $ 43,560 = $ 79,680

Total payments for purchases for the year $ 320,060

Computation of direct labor cost

No of units * Estimated Direct labor hours * Labor rate per hour

Quarter 1 = 9,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50 = $ 27.900

Quarter 2 = 12,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50 = $ 37.200

Quarter 3 11,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50 = $ 34.100

Quarter 4 10,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50 = $ 31.000

Total cost for Direct labour $ 130,200

Six months ago, Benders Gym repurchased $140,000 of its common stock. The company pays regular dividends totaling $18,500 per qu

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

$168,400

Explanation:

Benders Gym repurchased their common stock at the rate of $140,000

Benders Gym pays a regular dividend of $18,500 four times in a year

For a period of one year 1,200 shares was issued at the rate of $38 per share

Therefore, the amount of cash flow to the stockholders for the past one year can be calculated as follows

=[18,500×4]-[1,200×38-(140,000)]

= 74,000-[45,600-140,000]

= 74,000-[-94,000]

= 74,000+94,000

= $168,400

Hence the amount of cash flow to the stock holders for a period of one year is $168,400
