Answer:

a. $700,000.

Explanation:

20,000,000 x 35% = 7,000,000

purchase cost:          7,000,000

nor goodwill or excess of value should be recognized.

But, if the face value is 15,000,000 then:

15,000,000 x 35% =  5,250,000

we recognize a goodwill of 1,750,000

which will be amortized over 5 year thus:

1,750,000 / 5 = 350,000

For the income of Frenton it will recognize the proportion of the net income and subtract the amortization on the goodwill.

3,000,000 x 35% =   1,050,000

amortization        <u>       (350,000)  </u>

<em>income from Frenton  700,000</em>

Catering Corp. reported free cash flows for 2008 of $8.17 million and investment in operating capital of $2.17 million. Catering
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

$11.59 million

Explanation:

The computation of earning before interest and tax is shown below:-

Free cash flow = Operating cash flow - Investment in operating cash flow

$8.17 million = Operating cash flow - $2.17 million

Operating cash flow = $10.34 million

For calculating the earning before interest

Operating cash flow = Earning before interest - Taxes + Depreciation

$10.34 million = Earning before interest - $2.17 million + $0.92 million

= $10.34 million = Earning before interest - $1.25 million

Earning before interest = $11.59 million

butalik [34]

Answer:

Outside vendors specializing in all aspects of benefits administration would provide improved support to the firm's employees.

Explanation:

Shared services HR teams provide specialized support of day-to-day transactional HR activities to the company's employees by focusing on using centralized call centers and outsourcing arrangements with vendors (like benefits providers).

Blade Breeze Company manufactures ceiling fans and uses an activity-based costing system. Each ceiling fan has 20 separate parts
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

cost of machining per ceiling fan= $18  per unit

Explanation:

<em>Activity-based costing is a form of absorption costing where overheads are charged to product using cost drivers. Under this method, overheads are first analyzed and categorized by the activities responsible for them and then charged to product based on the amount of benefits enjoyed using cost drivers.</em>

For example, the machining overhead would charged to each ceiling fan using the machining overhead rate per machine hours.

Cost of machining per ceiling fan = Machining hours × overhead rate per machine hours

= 2.50 × $7.20= $18  per unit

cost of machining per ceiling fan= $18  per unit
