Boney Corporation processes sugar beets that it purchases from farmers. Sugar beets are processed in batches. A batch of sugar b

eets costs $52 to buy from farmers and $11 to crush in the company's plant. Two intermediate products, beet fiber, and beet juice emerge from the crushing process. The beet fiber can be sold as is for $16 or processed further for $15 to make the end product industrial fiber that is sold for $64. The beet juice can be sold as is for $47 or processed further for $19 to make the end product refined sugar that is sold for $64.

Answer:

$31

Explanation:

The incremental revenue and cost is calculated as stated below to arrive at the financial advantage

                              Beet Fiber          Beet Juice

Un processesd        16                         47                         63

Processed                64                         64                       128

Cost of further         15                         19                          34

Processing

Financial advantage = Incremental revenue - incremental cost

= 128-(63+24)= 31

Financial advantage from further processing    $31

However , i will like to mention that the financial advantage could have increased by $2 if the Beet juice is not processed further as the incremental cost is more than incremental revenue

Answer

Financial advantage from further processing    $31

Explanation:

<em>A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.  </em>

<em>Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point (the cost of crushing) are irrelevant to the decision to process further .  </em>

<em>                                                                                                     $</em>

Sales revenue after the split off point( 64+64)                       128

Sales revenue at the split-off point (16+47)                            <u> 63</u>

Additional sales revenue                                                          65

Further processing cost ( 15+19)                                              <u>(34 )</u>

<em>Net income after further processing                                        31</em>

Financial advantage from further processing    $31

An investor in a T-bill earns interest by _________. receiving interest payments every 90 days receiving dividend payments every
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

buying the bill at a discount from the face value to be received at maturity.

Explanation:

Treasury bills also referred to as T-bills are short term financial instruments. T-bills are issued at a discount from the face value or par value of the bill. Therefore, a T-bill which has a face value of $2000 may have a purchase price of $1,500. The investor will buy the T-bill for $1,500 and upon maturity of the instrument, the investor will receive $2000. The difference between the purchase price of $1,500 and the amount received at maturity of $2000 is interest earned by the investor.

Answer:

Buy

Explanation:

First, we need to find out what is the cost incurred by the company in building the power station and after that, we will compare that cost with the selling price of the power from Tri-county G&T. the lower-priced option will be considered as best option.

Cost incurred by the company in building the power station = $10,000,000 + (150,000 x $35)

Cost incurred by the company in building the power station = $10,000,000 + $5,250,000

Cost incurred by the company in building the power station = $15,250,000

Selling price of the power from Tri-county G&T = 150,000 x $75

Selling price of the power from Tri-county G&T = 11,250,000

Decision: It would be a wise option for the company to buy it. From buying the power the company will save $4m.
