Answer:
The optimum production quantity is 72 wheel bearings per batch.
Explanation:
Wheel Rite can produce 480 wheel bearings per day.
Setup cost are $39 per batch.
Holding costs are $0.70 per unit per year.
The optimum batch size can be calculated as the one that minimizes the cost. This can be calculated with the Economic Order Quantity formula:
In this case, the units are:
D: daily demand (52 u.)
S: Setup cost per order ($39)
H: holding cost per unit per year ($0.70)
Then, we have:
The optimum production quantity is 72 per batch.
Answer:
The investor will pay up the rereofitted pumps in a period of 22.52 months.
Explanation:
<em><u>First,</u></em> we solve for the amount of profit generate per month:
21,000 gallons a month x $0.09 per gallon = $1,890
Now, we calcualte the time at which an monthly income of 1890 discounted at 2% per month matches a present value of 34,000
C $1,890.00
time n
rate 0.02
PV $34,000.0000
We use logarithmics properties to solve for n:
-22.52006579
n = 22.5200 = 22 and a half month.
Answer:
To support a high stock price, to support a bond or stock offering, or to increase the company's stock price.
Explanation:
The motivation to publish fraudulent financial statements varies depending on the situation. A common theme in many cases of fraud is the attempt to improve the reported financial information to maintain high stock prices, support bonds or stock quotes, or raise a company's stock price. In many companies that published fraudulent financial statements, senior executives held significant stocks or stock options, and lowering the price of the stock would significantly reduce personal net worth or make worthless options. As a result, senior management had to maintain the high share price and therefore needed high returns to maintain the high share price. Investors value reports that increase profits each year. Indeed, the decline in earnings can significantly lower a company's stock price. Sometimes fraudulent financial reports cause line managers to exaggerate the results to meet the company or other expectations. Sometimes the cost of failure in corporate governance is high, and when it comes to choosing between failure and fraud, some managers quickly turn to fraud.
Answer:
Production= 13,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated inventory (units), June 1 18,500
Desired inventory (units), June 30 19,000
Expected sales volume (units):
Area X 3,000
Area Y 4,000
Area Z 5,500
Total= 12,500
To calculate the production for the period, we need to use the following formula:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Production= 12,500 + 19,000 - 18,500
Production= 13,000
Answer:
P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64
Option c is the correct answer
Explanation:
Using the two stage growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula to calculate the price of the stock today is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n + [(D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2) / (r - g2)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
- g1 is the initial growth rate
- g2 is the constant growth rate
- r is the required rate of return
P0 = 2* (1+0.2) / (1+0.1) + 2 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.1)^2 + 2 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.1)^3
+ 2 * (1+0.2)^4 / (1+0.1)^4 + 2 * (1+0.2)^5 / (1+0.1)^5 +
[(2 * (1+0.2)^5 * (1+0.04) / (0.1 - 0.04)) / (1+0.1)^5]
P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64
