Answer:

a. 2643

b. 1321

c. 5524.77

d. 55.25

e. $8,156,074.321

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Production = 292,000

Daily demand, d = 400

Annual demand, D = 400 × 365 = 146,000

Production rate, P = 292000 ÷ 365 =800

set-up cost, Cs = $100

Holding cost, Ch = $55.75 × 15% = $8.3625

Now,

a) Economic production quantity, EPQ = $\sqrt{\frac{2\times D\times Cs}{Ch}\times(\frac{p}{(p-d)})}$

Or

= $\sqrt{\frac{2\times 146,000\times 100}{8.3625}\times(\frac{800}{(800-400)})}$

= 2642.64 ≈ 2643

b. Maximum inventory level that the company is capable of having on hand, $I_{max}$

= EPQ × [ 1 - (d ÷ p) ]

= 2642.64 × [ 1 - (400 ÷ 800) ]

= 1321.32 ≈ 1321

c. Cost of managing the inventory

= $Ch\times(\frac{I_{max}}{2})$

= 8.3625 × [ 1321.32 ÷ 2 ]

= 5524.77

d. Number of setups

= [ Annual demand ] ÷ EPQ

= 146,000 ÷ 2642.64

= 55.25

e. Total cost including the unit cost

= Setup cost + Holding cost + Unit cost

= ( [ 146000 ÷ 2642.64 ] × 100 ) + ( [ 2642.64 ÷ 2 ] × 8.3625 ) + ( 146000× 55.75 )

= $8,156,074.321

Warnes Motors' stock is trading at $20 a share. Three-month call options with an exercise price of $20 have a price of $1.50. Wh

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

B. The price of the call option will increase by less than $2, but the percentage increase in price will be more than 10%.

Explanation:

Given

Trading price = $20

Exercise price of call option = $20

Call option price = $1.50

Price increment = 10% to $22

It's not be noted that the discounted present value of a price of an option is represented by its expected payoff.

An increment of $2 in stock price attracts an increment of more than $2 in the payoff option.

Having highlighted that, it's also to be noted that the increment in expected payoff will be by an amount less than $2 and same with present value because the possibility is less than 1. So, the price of the option will increase by less than $2.

Moving to the percentage increase;

This will be larger than 10%.

This is because when stock price increases by 10%, the value of the option will increase by more than 10%.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Accounts, Amounts, and Effects on the Accounting Equation:

Apr. 30 Assets increase (Cash +$876,000) = Liabilities increase(Promissory note payable (Commercial Bank) +$876,000) + Equity

June 6 Assets increase (Inventory +$98,000) = Liabilities increase (Accounts payable +$98,000) + Equity

Aug. 31 Assets increase (Cash +$35,500) = Liabilities increase (Deferred Revenue +$35,500) + Equity

Dec. 31 Assets = Liabilities increase (Salary and wages payable +$63,000) + Equity decrease (Retained earnings (Salary and wages expenses) -$63,000)

Dec. 31 Assets = Liabilities increase (Interest payable +$49,640) + Equity decrease (Retained earnings (Interest Expense) -$49,640)

Dec. 31 Assets = Liabilities decrease (Deferred Revenue -$23,667) + Equity increase (Retained earnings (Security Service Revenue) +$23,667)
