WARRIOR [948]

Answer;

Cost of goods manufactured =  Cost of finished goods available for sale - Beginning inventory of finished goods.

Cost of goods sold = Cost of finished goods available for sale - Ending finished goods

a. Cost of goods manufactured =  Cost of finished goods available for sale - Beginning inventory of finished goods.

331,000 = a - 64,900

a = 331,000 + 64,900

= $395,900

b. Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods manufactured - Ending finished goods

b = 395,900  - 76,800

= $319,800

c. Cost of goods manufactured =  Cost of finished goods available for sale - Beginning inventory of finished goods.

c = 178,600 - 18,800

= $159,800

d. Cost of goods sold = Cost of finished goods available for sale - Ending finished goods

d = 178,600 - 37,500

= $141,100

e. Cost of goods manufactured =  Cost of finished goods available for sale - Beginning inventory of finished goods.

65,800 = 103,400 - e

e = 103,400 - 65,800

= $37,600

f. Cost of goods sold = Cost of finished goods available for sale - Ending finished goods

- missing figure (ending finished goods).

Strategic PlanningImagine that IBM has decided to diversify into the telecommunications business to provide online cloud-computi
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

IBM could either diversify by the strategy of market penetration, which consists in increasing the market share in a particular sector (in this case, cloud computing) through more marketing efforts.

Or it could integrate horizontally, acquiring a possible competitor that is more advanced in the cloud-computing business. Or even a start-up with good prospects, because with the amount of capital that IBM has, it could more easily expand the start-up operation as a new internal business division.

Hi-Tek is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next 9 years, because the firm needs to plow
Elza [17]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $16.83

Explanation:

The current price per share can be estimated using constant growth model of  the DDM. The price per share can be calculated using the following formula,

P0 = D1 / r - g

To calculate the price today, we use the dividend expected for the next period. Thus, using the dividend that will be paid at t=11 or D11, we can calculate the price of the stock at t=10. We further need to discount this price using the required rate of return for 10 years to calculate the price of the stock today.

P10 = 6 * (1+0.04)  /  (0.14 - 0.04)

P10 = $62.4

The price of the stock today will be,

P0 = 62.4 / (1.14)^10

P0 = $16.83

Raspberry Company's actuary has computed its prior service cost to be $8,000,000. Raspberry amortizes the prior service cost by
Andrews [41]

Answer: $910,000

Explanation:

Pension expense is calculated by the formula:

= Prior Service cost  for the year+ Service cost + Interest cost - Expected return on plant assets

Prior Service cost = Prior service cost / Service life of active employees

= 8,000,000 / 20

= $400,000

Expected return on plan assets = Plan assets * Interest rate

= 1,500,000 * 10%

= $150,000

Pension expense = 400,000 + 560,000 + 100,000 - 150,000

= $910,000
