Universal Electronics, Inc. (UEI), which started operations one year ago, has two divisions: Consumer and Commercial. Both divis

ions invest heavily in R&D, which is assumed to benefit five years. R&D spending is made uniformly throughout the year. UEI has a cost of capital of 11 percent. Selected financial information for the two divisions (in thousands of dollars) for the year just completed follows. Consumer Commercial Sales revenue $ 54,000 $ 85,000 Divisional income 11,500 11,925 Divisional investment 35,500 39,750 Current liabilities 4,200 4,000 R&D 4,200 4,200 Required: Evaluate the performance of the two divisions assuming UEI uses economic value added (EVA)

Answer:

Consumer    EVA 7, 133.00

Commercial EVA 7,090.50

<u>Both are profitable</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The EVA (economic value added) is the result from subtracting the cost of capital of the investment to their divisional income. This will determinate if the division increase the company's capital or destroyed (as it return less than optimal/desired)

Consumer Income                     11,500

Investment: 35,500 + 4,200 = 39,700

EVA:     11,500 - 39,700 x 11% =  7,  133

Commercial Income                  11,925

Investment: 39,750 + 4,200 = 43,950

EVA: 11,925 - 43,950 x 11%   =  7090.5

Both division are profitable as they generate more income than the cost of the investment

UA Hamburger Hamlet (UAHH) places a daily order for its high-volume items (hamburger patties, buns, milk, and so on). UAHH count
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

730 items

Explanation:

The objective of the given information is to determine the number of hamburgers UAHH should order for the following conditions:

Average daily demand 600

Standard deviation of demand 100

Desired service probability 99%

Hamburger inventory 800

The formula for a given order quantity in a fixed period of time can be expressed as :

q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I

where;

q =  order quantity = ???

\overline d = daily demand average = 600

L = lead time in days = 1

T = time taken = 1

z = no of standard deviation = ???

\sigma_{L+T} = standard deviation of usage in lead time and time taken = ???

I = present inventory level = 800

\sigma_{L+T} = \sqrt 2 × standard deviation of daily demand

\sigma_{L+T} = \sqrt{2} *100

\sigma_{L+T} = 1.4142 * 100

\sigma_{L+T} = 141.42 items

From the Desired service probability 99% = 0.99; we can deduce the no of standard deviation by using the excel function (=NORMSINV (0.99))

z = 2.33

From q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I

q =600(1+1)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800

q =600(2)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800

q =1200+329.5086-800

q = 729.5086 items

q ≅ 730 items

Therefore; the  number of hamburgers UAHH should order from the following given conditions = 730 items

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

$16.20

Explanation:

Calculation for How much is the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials

Cost per equivalent unit for direct materials=($36,000+$186,000)/[11,000+(3,000*90%)]

Cost per equivalent unit for direct materials=$222,000/(11,000+2,700)

Cost per equivalent unit for direct materials=$222,000/13,700

Cost per equivalent unit for direct materials=$16.20

Therefore the the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials will be $16.20

Alex

Answer: Debit Accounts receivable for $600.

Explanation:

The customer had not been billed so that means that they still owe the company. This would make them an accounts receivable so the adjusting entry will have to debit the Accounts Receivable account for $600 to show that it is increasing.

This amount will be credited to the Accrued revenue account to show that the cash has not yet been received.

The future value of a lump sum is the amount expected at a future date when a sum of money is invested today at a particular rate of interest for certain number of years

.

This implies compounding the initial amount invested ($300) at the given interest rate(11%) for 10 years.This will be done as follows:

<em />

FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)

FV-Future value

r- rate of return per period

n- Number of period

PV - 300

r-11%

DATA

FV- ?

PV - 300

n- 10

FV= 300 × 1.11^10 = 851.83

The balance in the account = $851.8
