The funded status of Hilton Paneling Inc.'s defined benefit pension plan and the balances in prior service cost and the net gain

krok68 [10]

Answer:

1. Actual return on Plat assets

= Ending plan assets - beginning assets - employer contribution + retirees payment

= 2,591 - 2,400 - 245 + 270

= $216,000

2. Gain(loss) on plan assets

= Actual return - expected return

= 216,000 - (10% * 2,400,000-beginning assets)

= ($24,000) loss

3. Service cost

= Ending Projected benefit obligation - Beginning Projected benefit obligation - Interest cost + Retiree benefits

= 2,501 - 2,300 - (7% * 2,300) + 264

= $304,000

4. Pension expense

= Interest cost + expected return + Amortization of prior service cost + amortization of net gain + Service cost

= Interest cost + expected return + (beginning prior service cost - ending prior cost) + (Beginning net gain - ending net gain - loss on plan asset) + Service cost

= (7% * 2,300) + 240 + (325 - 300) + (330 - 300 - 24) + 304

= $736,000

5. Average remaining service life of active employees

= (Beginning Net gain - expected return) / Amortization of net gain

= (330 - 300) / (330 - 300 - 24)

= 5 years

Spencer Enterprises is attempting to choose among a series of new investment alternatives. The potential investment alternatives

fomenos

Answer:

Assume: only one of the ware house expansion projects can be implemented and suppose that, if test marketing of the new product is carried out, the advertising campaign also must be conducted and vice versa. Also suppose that the purchase of new equipment cannot be undertaken unless the basic research or the extensive warehouse expansion are implemented.

Formulate the corresponding model for maximizing the net present value subject to the restrictions stated above

Yi (1 if investment alternative is selected, o otherwise)

i = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Max Z = $4,000y1 + 6,000y2 + 10,500y3 + 4,000y4 + 8,000y5 + 3,000y6

∴ NPV = 17,500
