Answer:

C. 31.25%.

Explanation:

PRODUCTS                   X               Y                 Z               Total

Sales in dollars         $20,000   $40,000   $100,000     $160,000

CM ratio                     45%              40%           25%

Contribution margin ratio can be calculated by weighted average method base on the sales ratio of each product.

Contribution margin as a whole = ( CM ratio of X x Ratio of X in total sales ) + ( CM ratio of Y x Ratio of Y in total sales ) + ( CM ratio of Z x Ratio of Z in total sales )

Contribution margin as a whole = ( 45% x $20,000 / $160,000 ) + ( 40% x $40,000 / $160,000 ) + ( 25% x $100,000 / $160,000 )

Contribution margin as a whole = 5.625% + 10% + 15.625% = 31.25%

Answer:

predetermined overhead per direct labor hour: $11.02

Explanation:

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

To solve for overhead rate we determinate the expected cost and distribute them over a cost driver which is, in this case; direct labor hours

<u>Expected overhead cost:</u>

Machinery maintenance   $   181,350

Utilities                              $  226,380

Supervision                        $   191,000

Materials handling cost     $    67,000

Building occupancy costs $    98,270

Indirect materials               $<u>     31,650 </u>

Total overhead:                 $  795,650

Total direct labor:    72,000

Overhead rate:   795,650 / 72,000 = 11.0206944= $11.02

Suppose that you open a mutual fund account with a deposit of 500 dollars. 5 months later, the fund balance is 600 dollars, and
faust18 [17]

Answer:

The question is not complete, below is the complete question:

Suppose that you open a mutual fund account with a deposit of 500 dollars. 5 months later, the fund balance is 600 dollars, and you withdraw 216 dollars. A year after the account was opened, your balance is X dollars. If the dollar weighted and time weighted rates of return were the same, what is the rate of return? (Assume simple interest for the dollar weighted calculation.) Answer should be a percent!!!

Answer:

The rate of return is 48% on deposited fund.

Explanation:

The rate of return on investment is the percentage increase on an amount invested for a particular period of time, and to calculate this, we will use the simple interest formula:

I = P × R × T

Where:

P = principal = $500

R = rate in decimal ( %rate/100)

T = time = 5 months = 5/12 years

I = interest = Principal - final balance = 600 - 500 = $100

∴ 100 = 500 × R/100 × 5/12

100 = \frac{2500R}{1200}

120,000 = 2500R

∴ R = 120,000 ÷ 2500 = 48%

Therefore rate of return (R) = 48%

For a clearer understanding of the concept of interests, let us calculate for the balance after one year (X) as shown below:

I = P×R×T

T = 1 because, X is the balance after one year.

I = 500 × 48/100 × 1

I = $240

therefore the final amount after one year = interest + principal

= 240 + 500 = 740

but we were told that $216 was withdrawn at 5 months, hence the balance after one year = 740 - 216 = $524

timama [110]

Question

you are a consultant to a firm evaluating an expansion of its current business. The cash flow forecasts (in millions of dollar) for the project as follows:

Year     cashflow

0           -100

1-10            15

0n the basis of the behavior of the firm's stock, you believe that the beta of the firm is 1.30. Assuming that the rate of return available on risk-free investments is 5% and that the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 15% what is the net present value of the project

Answer:

NPV= -$32.58

Explanation:

The net present value of the investment is the cash inflow from the investment discounted at required rate of return. The required rate of return can be determined using the the formula below:

Ke= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)  

Ke =? , Rf- 5%,, Rm-15%, β- 1.30

Ke=5% + 1.30× (15-5)=  18%

The NPV = Present value of cash inflow - initial cost

 =  A×(1-(1+r)^(-10)/r  - initial cost

A- 15, r-18%

NPV = 15× (1-1.18^(-10)/0.18 - 100= -32.58

NPV = -$32.58
