Answer:

The direct material quantity variance is $10,800 favourable.  (the options in the question are not correct).

Explanation:

The direct materials quantity variance represents a difference between what was actually produced and the standard or idea that should have been produced especially with regards to the use of direct materials.

To calculate material quantity variance

Step 1:Calculate the Standard Usage of Material

Formula= (Actual Units of Finished goods Purchased x Standard Price of Material per unit)

= 4,000 units x 15 Pounds

= 60,000 Pounds

This means the standard material usage is 60,000 pounds

Step 2: Now calculate the Direct Material Quantity Variance

Formula= (Standard Material Usage - Actual Material Usage) x The Standard Price per Unit of Material

= 60,000 pounds (computed in step 1) - 40,000 pounds (given in the question)

= 20,000 pounds x $0.54

=$10,800

Since the standard Material is higher than the actual material usage, it means that the answer is as follows;

The direct material quantity variance is $10,800 favourable.

Kindly note that the multiple options in the question above are for a different set of figures and a different question.

Direct materials            $15,478

Direct labor                    $7,400

Manufacturing Overhead  $5,611

Direct Material Cost per unit= $ 15478/9190= $ 1.684

Conversion Cost per unit=   $13011 / 8260= 1.575=$ 1.58

Direct Material Cost for Completed units = 6400 * $1.684= $ 10,779

Conversion Cost for Completed units = 6400 *1.575= $ 10,081

Which of the following statements about the inclusion of boot in a nontaxable exchange is false? Multiple Choice The purpose of
ankoles [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The purpose of including boot in a nontaxable exchange is to equalize the adjusted tax bases of the properties exchanged. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

A nontaxable exchange is a trade wherein you are not exhausted on any addition, and you cannot deduct any loss. On the off chance that you get property in a "nontaxable business", its premise usually is equivalent to the assumption of the property you moved.

You are given the following information for Lightning Power Co. Assume the company’s tax rate is 24 percent. Debt: 19,000 6.8 pe
diamong [38]

Answer:

Company's WACC is 9.6%

Explanation:

WACC is the average cost of capital of the firm based on the weightage of the debt and weightage of the equity multiplied to their respective costs.

Formula for WACC

Weighted Average Cost of Capital = (Cost of Equity x Weightage of equity) + (Cost of preferred Stock x Weightage of preferred Stock ) + (Cost of Debt (1 -t) x Weightage of Debt)

Market Values

Equity = 520,000 x $70 = $36,400,000

Preferred = 23,000 x $91 = $2,093,000

Debt  = $1,110 x 19,000 = $21,090,000

Total Value = $36,400,000 + $2,093,000 + $21,090,000 = $59,583,000

Cost of Equity :

We can calculate cost of equity using CAPM

Capital asset pricing model measure the expected return on an asset or investment. it is used to make decision for addition of specific investment in a well diversified portfolio.

Formula for CAPM

Cost of Equity = Risk free rate + beta ( market return - risk free rate )

Cost of Equity = Rf + β ( Rm - Rf )

Cost of Equity = 5.5% + 1.21 ( 6% )

Cost of Equity = 12.76%

Cost of Preferred stock = 4.6%

We need to calculate the yield to maturity

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

Placing value in the formula

Yield to maturity = [ 34 + ( $1,000 - $1,110 ) / 48 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1,110 ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = 3% semiannually = 6% annually

Placing values in the formula

Weighted Average Cost of Capital = (12.76% x $36,400,000 / $59,583,000 ) + ( 4.6% x $2,093,000 / $59,583,000 ) + (6% (1 - 0.24 ) x $21,090,000 / $59,583,000 )

Weighted Average Cost of Capital = 7.80% + 0.16% + 1.61% = 9.57%
