Answer:
$360
Explanation:
Interest Expense associated with the loan is the only operating cash flow. We need to calculate the interest expense first
As the note is issued on August 1, year 1, only 5 months has been passed on December 31, year 1, So we calculate the interest expense for only 5 months.
Interest Expense = Value of Note x Stated Interest rate x 5/12 = $10,800 x 8% x 5/12 = $360
It is assumed that the interest is paid on December 31, year 1.
Cost of equity is calculated as -
Cost of equity = Risk free return + Beta * (Market risk - Risk free return)
Given,
Risk free return = 5.3 %
Market risk = 12 %
Beta = 1.05
Cost of equity = 5.3 % + (1.05*(12-5.3%))
Cost of equity = 12.335 % or 12.24 %
Answer:
Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.
Explanation:
Absolute advantage is defined as the ability of a firm to produce higher amounts of a product as a result of use of the same resources with other competitors. It is usually bad a result of more efficient production process.
Comparative advantage is the ability of a firm to produce goods at a lower opportunity cost. Therefore they are able to sell at lower price compared to competitors.
Georgeland can produce 18 units of clothe per year while Alland can produce 16 units per year, so Georgeland has absolute advantage.
In producing clothes Georgeland has opportunity cost of 36 units of food which is higher than that of Alland which is 32 units of food. So Georgeland does not have comparative advantage in producing clothes.
Answer:
A.Pattern Department 57 per DLH
Cut and Sew Department 78 per DLH
B.Small glove 8.52
Medium glove 10.65
Large glove 12.78
Explanation:
a) Calculation to Determine the two production department factory overhead rates.
Pattern Department = 165,200/2,900
= 56.9 Approximately 57 per DLH
Cut and Sew Department = 273,000/3,500
= 78 per DLH
Therefore two production department factory overhead rates will be :
Pattern Department 57 per DLH
Cut and Sew Department 78 per DLH
b) Calculation of the factory overhead cost per unit
Small glove (57*.04+78*.08)=8.52
Medium glove (57*.05+78*.10)=10.65
Large glove (57*.06+78*.12)=12.78
Therefore the factory overhead per unit for each product will be: Small glove 8.52
Medium glove 10.65
Large glove 12.78
Answer:
Journal Entry
01 July Debit Investment $240 million Credit Bank $200 million Credit Discount on investment $40 million
31 Dec Debit Bank $7,2 Million Debit Discount on Bond $0.8 million Credit Interest Income $8 million
Debit Fair Value loss on investment $30 million Credit Investment $30 million
Explanation:
Interest is received semiannually
6%/2 = 3%
interest = $240 million * 3% =7,200,000
8%/2 = 4%
Interest market $200 million * 4% =8,000,000
Fair value loss = 240 million - 210 million
= 30 million loss because cost is greater than fair value
