A company manufactures a product using machine cells. Each cell has a design capacity of 250 units per day and an effective capa

city of 230 units per day. At present, actual output averages 200 units per cell, but the manager estimates that productivity improvements soon will increase output to 220 units per day. Annual demand is currently 50,000 units. It is forecasted that within two years, annual demand will triple. How many cells will the company require to satisfy predicted demand under these conditions

Answer:

1.90

Explanation:

Calculation for how many cells that the company require to satisfy predicted demand

Using this formula

Numbers of cell=Projected annual demand/Annual capacity per cell

Based on the information given we were told that Annual demand is 50,000 units in which it is forecasted that within 2 years it will tripple which means that Annual demand will be calculated as:

Projected annual demand = 50,000*2 years

Projected annual demand=100,000

Let plug in the formula

Numbers of cell=100,000÷(220 units/day × 238 days/year)

Numbers of cell=100,000÷52,360

Numbers of cell=1.90

Therefore the amount of cells that the company require to satisfy predicted demand will be 1.90

Answer:

Net working capital addition was for 8,108 dollars

Explanation:

To solve for NWC we start form the accounting equation and then, we expand it to get the NWC expression:

Assets = Liabilies + Equity

we expend the formula

current assets + fixed assets = current liabliies + non-currnet liab + stock + RE

NWC = net working capital

being: current assets - current liabilities

(current assets - current liabilities) =  non-currnet liab + stock + RE - fixed assets

NWC = -3,283 + 5,629 + RE - 24,154

We need to solve fotr the change in Retained Earnings:

which is net income - dividends:

sales                                316,547

costs                              (219,406)

other expenses                 (8,481)

depreciation expense    (18,633)

interest expense             (14,216)

taxes                                 (15,217)

                 net income      40,594

                dividends         (10,678)

          change in RE           29,916

NWC = -3,283 + 5,629 + 29,916 - 24,154

NWC = 8,108

Beverly Company has determined a standard variable overhead rate of $3.10 per direct labor hour and expects to incur 0.50 labor
Damm [24]

Answer:

Variable overhead rate variance = $ 875 favorable

Variable overhead efficiency variance = $ 4,185 favorable

Variable overhead cost variance = $5,060 Favorable

Explanation:

Standard hours = 1 hr x 2600 units = 2600 hours

Standard rate = $3.10

Actual hours = 1,250 hours

Actual rate = $2.40

Variable overhead rate variance =  ( Standard Rate - Actual Rate ) x Actual Hrs

=  ( $ 3.10 - $2.40 ) x 1250 Hrs

= $0.7 x 1250

=$ 875 favorable

Variable overhead efficiency variance = (Standard hours - Actual hours) x Standard Rate

= (2600 - 1250 ) x $ 3.10

= $ 4,185 favorable

Variable overhead spending variance = Variable overhead rate variance +  Variable overhead efficiency variance

= $875 + $4,185

= $ 5,060 favorable

Variable overhead cost variance = Standard cost - Actual Cost

= (2600 X 3.10) - (1250 X 2.40) = 8,060 - 3000

= $5,060 Favorable

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:            ke = D1/Po + g

                 0.1025 = D1/57.50 + 0.06

        0.1025-0.06 = D1/57.50

            0.0425     = D1/57.50

                      D1    = 0.0425 x 57.50

                      D1    = $2.444

           

Explanation: Cost of equity is equal to dividend in 1 year's time divided by the current market price plus the growth rate. Other variables were provided in the question except the dividend at the end of the year (D1).

Thus, D1 becomes the subject of the formula. The appropriate cost of equity is $2.44. The correct answer is B.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

If an investment project can be repeated, i.e. its life cycle can be extended by reinvesting, the NPV of the project will change.

When considering two mutually exclusive projects, the NPV method should always be considered before the IRR as a means of evaluating which project should be carried out.
