Answer:

Correct Option is B) Rochester Income Increase, Reedsburg Income No effect

Explanation:

As per IFRS,

When a company holds share of any company up to 20% then it is an associate, and in this case Rochester holds only 15% and thus will increase its net income with dividend received. (Cost method is followed)

When a company holds more than 20 % and less than 50% then the equity method is followed until and unless major significance is not exercised, generally it is exercised. In that case equity method is followed, and any income received is adjusted from cost of investment, and do not form part of income.

Selling price per unit = $160

Sales volume = 27,000 units

Sales revenue = $4,320,000 ($160 * 27,000)

Variable production cost = $106 per unit

Total variable production costs = $2,862,000 ($106 * 27,000)

Fixed production cost =                     200,000

Total production cost =                $3,062,000

                                                   Total          Per Unit

Sales revenue =                    $4,320,000    $160

Variable production costs = $2,862,000      106

Variable expenses                     378,000         14

Total variable costs              $3,240,000    $120

Contribution =                       $1,080,000      $40

Contribution margin ratio = 25% ($40/$160 * 100)

Total fixed costs:

Production costs = $200,000

Selling and admin = 325,000

Total fixed costs = $525,000

Break-even point = Fixed costs/Contribution margin per unit

= $525,000/$40 = 13,125

Break-even point in dollars = $525,000/25% = $2,100,000

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

$1,464,000

Explanation:

The computation of the depletion expense is shown below:

Purchase price plus additional cost = $5,640,000

Extracted tons during four year period = 940,000 tons

Current year tons extracted = 244,000 tons

So,

Depletion expense = Purchase price plus additional cost ÷ extracted tons during four year period × current year tons extracted

= $5,640,000 ÷ 940,000 tons × 244,000 tons

= $1,464,000

Your firm is planning to invest in a new electrostatic power generation system. Electrostat Inc is a firm that specializes in th
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The cost of capital for electrostatic power generators is closest to 7.75%

Explanation:

In order to calculate the estimate of your cost of capital for electrostatic power generators we would have to make the following calculation:

Step-1, Calculation of the Overall Beta

Market Value of Equity = $40,00,00,000 [160,00,000 Shares x $25 per share]

Market Value of Debt = $22,00,00,000

Total Market Value = $62,00,00,000

Therefore, Beta = [Equity Beta x Weight of Equity] + [Debt Beta x Weight of Debt]

= [1.18 x ($40,00,00,000 / $62,00,00,000)] + [0.08 x ($22,00,00,000 / $62,00,00,000)]

= 0.761290 + 0.028387

= 0.789677

Step-2, Cost of capital

As per CAPM Approach, Cost of capital = Risk-free Rate x (Beta x Market Risk Premium)

= 3% + (0.789677 x 6%)

= 3% + 4.75%

= 7.75%

Therefore, the cost of capital for electrostatic power generators is closest to  7.75%
