Answer:

Cost per equivalent unit Materials =  $ 2.82

Cost per equivalent unit Conversion =  $2.65

Explanation:

Richards Corporation

1) We first calculate the fifo equivalent units .

FIFO Equivalent units can be calculated by the following.

Particulars          Units        % of Completion             Equivalent Units

                                              Mat. Con. Costs       Materials C. Costs

Transferred out, 366,000        100       100             366,000   366,000

Ending inventory, 39,000         30         15              11700         5850

Total Weighted Equivalent Units                           377,700     371,850

Less

<u> Beginning Inventory: 98,000, 80%  20%             78,400        18000</u>

<u>FIFO Equivalent Units                                          299,300       353,850 </u>  

2) We calculate the total costs

                                                   Direct Materials  Conversion

Costs in beginning Work in Process -$55,200       $97,700

<u>Costs incurred in October -                 $844,050      $937,300. </u>

Total Cost                                           $ 899250         1035,000  

<u />

<u>3) In FIFO The cost per unit is  based only on the current costs and current period unit productions.</u>

Materials = $844050/299300= $2.82

Conversion = 937,300  / 353,850   = 2.6488= $2.65

Bond J has a coupon of 7.6 percent. Bond K has a coupon of 11.6 percent. Both bonds have 12 years to maturity and have a YTM of
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Bond J has a coupon of 7.6%  

Bond K has a coupon of 11.6%

12 years to maturity and YTM of 8.2%

first we must determine the current market price of both bonds using the yield to maturity formula:

YTM = {C + [(FV - PV) / n]} /  [(FV + PV) / 2]

  • YTM = 8.2%
  • C = coupon payment = $76 and $116
  • FV = face value or value at maturity = $1,000
  • PV = present value or current market value = ???
  • n = 12 years

current market value of Bond J:

0.082 = {76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]} /  [(1,000 + PV) / 2]

[(1,000 + PV) / 2]  x 0.082 = 76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]

41 + 0.041PV = 76 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.124PV = 118.33

PV = 118.33 / 0.124 = $954.27

current market value of Bond K:

41 + 0.041PV = 116 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.124PV = 158.33

PV = 158.33 / 0.124 = $1,276.85

a. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2.2 percent, what is the percentage price change of these bonds?

YTM = {C + [(FV - PV) / n]} /  [(FV + PV) / 2]

  • YTM = 8.2% + 2.2% = 10.4%
  • C = coupon payment = $76 and $116
  • FV = face value or value at maturity = $1,000
  • PV = present value or current market value = ???
  • n = 12 years

market value of Bond J:

0.102 = {76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]} /  [(1,000 + PV) / 2]

[(1,000 + PV) / 2]  x 0.102 = 76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]

102 + 0.051PV = 76 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.134PV = 157.33

PV = 57.33 / 0.134 = $427.84

market value of Bond K:

102 + 0.051PV = 116 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.134PV = 97.33

PV = 97.33 / 0.134 = $726.34

Bond J's market price will decrease by ($427.84 - $954.27) / $954.27 = -55.17%

Bond K's market price will decrease by ($726.34 - $1,276.85) / $1,276.85 = -43.11%

b. If interest rates suddenly fall by 2.2 percent, what is the percentage price change of these bonds?

YTM = {C + [(FV - PV) / n]} /  [(FV + PV) / 2]

  • YTM = 6%
  • C = coupon payment = $76 and $116
  • FV = face value or value at maturity = $1,000
  • PV = present value or current market value = ???
  • n = 12 years

current market value of Bond J:

0.06 = {76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]} /  [(1,000 + PV) / 2]

[(1,000 + PV) / 2]  x 0.06 = 76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]

30 + 0.030PV = 76 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.113PV = 129.33

PV = 129.33 / 0.113 = $1,144.51

current market value of Bond K:

30 + 0.030PV = 116 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.113PV = 169.33

PV = 169.33 / 0.113 = $1,498.50

Bond J's market price will increase by ($1,144.51 - $954.27) / $954.27 = 19.94%

Bond K's market price will increase by ($1,498.50 - $1,276.85) / $1,276.85 = 17.36%

On February 1, 2021, Arrow Construction Company entered into a three-year construction contract to build a bridge for a price of
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

2021

revenue                 2,666,667

we have cost for <u>  2,000,000  </u>

income for                666,667

2022

revenue                     3.278.400‬

cost                       <u>     2,500,000    </u>

income                          778.400‬

2023

revenue          2,054,933‬

cost             <u>    3,800,000   </u>

loss                   1,745,067‬

Explanation:

2,000,000/ (2,000,000 + 4,000,000) = 1/3

in 2021 a third of the contract was complete therefore we recognize a third of revenue:

8,000,000 x 1/3 = 2,666,667

we have cost for   2,000,000

income for                666,667

2,500,000 / (2,500,000 + 3,600,000) = 0,4098

we recognize revenues for 40.98 of the total contract value.

8,000,000 x 40.98 = 3.278.400‬

cost                       <u>     2,500,000    </u>

income                          778.400‬

2023

we recognize the remaining revenue.

8,000,000 - 2,666,667 - 3,278,400 = 2.054.933‬ revenue

cost 3,800,000

loss   1,745,067‬

SVEN [57.7K]

At the completion of a long project, aileen gives her assistant a day off with pay to acknowledge all of his hard work. This is an example of reward power.

<h3>What is reward?</h3>

The reward system is a collection of brain structures that are responsible for incentive salience, associative learning, and positively-valenced emotions, particularly those that have pleasure as a key component.

When it comes to benefits and incentives, rewarding employees is one of the most effective strategies to increase retention and employee happiness. According to Think Smart research, firms that use incentive programs achieve their goals with a 79 percent success rate when the right reward is presented.

78 percent of employees said recognition stimulates them in their job, while a combined 68 percent of respondents in REBA's The Rewards Report 2016 indicated recognition with a reward helped them feel valued or motivated at work.

Room Chill Company manufactures ceiling fans and uses an activityminusbased costing system. Each ceiling fan has 20 separate par
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Total unitary cost= $121.5

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each ceiling fan has 20 separate parts.

The direct materials cost is $85

Each ceiling fan requires 3.5 hours of machine time to manufacture.

Activity Allocation Base Allocation Rate

Materials handling Number of parts $ 0.08

Machining Machine hours 7.20

Assembling Number of parts 0.35

Packaging Number of finished units 2.70

To calculate the unitary manufacturing cost, we need to use the following formula:

Unitary manufacturing cost= direct material per unit + allocated overhead per unit

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Materials handling= 0.08*20= $1.6

Machining= 7.20*3.5= $25.2

Assembling= 0.35*20= $7

Packaging= 2.70*1= $2.7

Total= $36.5

Total unitary cost= 85 + 36.5= $121.5

Dave has $100,000 to invest in 10 mutual fund alternatives with the following restrictions. For diversification, no more than $2
Over [174]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Let the binary variables be: x1,x2,x3.....x10. If x1=0, no amount is invested in fund 1 and if it is 1 it means that an amount is invested. Let y1,y2.....y 10 be the variables for the amount invested.

Kindly check the first attached image for the table.

The objective is to maximize the return. Hence our objective function is: 6.7%*y1+7.65%*y2+7.55%*y3+7.45%*y4+7.5%*y5+6.45%*y6+7.05%*y7+6.9%*y8+5.2%*y9+5.9%*y10. This has to be maximized.

Constraints:

(i) y1,y2.....y10<=25,000 (no more than $25,000 can be invested in any one fund)

(ii) If x1=1, y1>=10,000, 0. This what if formula will be applicable for all the variables. (If a fund is chosen for investment, then at least $10,000 will be invested in it).

(iii) x1+x2+x3+x4<=2 (No more than two of the funds can be pure growth funds)

(iv) y9+y10>=y1+y2+y3+y4 (at least as much as the amount invested in pure amount invested in pure bond funds must be at least as much as the amount invested in pure growth funds)

(v) all x's are binary and all y's>=0. (vi) y1+y2+y3+y4....y10 = 100,000 (amount to be invested)

Solving in excel using the solver function the following solution is obtained:

Kindly check the second attached image for the table.

Thus the maximum return = $7056.25

Amount invested in different funds are:

Kindly check the Third attached image for the table.
