Answer:

A. Take $1 million now.

Explanation:

A. If we take $1 million now the present value of the money is $1 million.

B. If we choose to take $1.2 million paid out over 3 years then present value will at 10% will be;

$300,000 + $300,000 / 1.2 + $300,000/ 1.44 + $300,000 / 1.728

$300,000 + $250,000 + $208,000+ $173,611 = $931,944

The present value of option B is less than present value of option A. We should select option A and take $1 million now.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

a. $392, 265

Explanation:

Given that:

i. Purchasing department, overhead allocation rate is $77 per purchase order.

ii. Assembly department, overhead allocation rate is $5 per part.

iii. Packaging department, overhead allocation rate is $4 per unit.

iv. Direct material cost is $70 per unit.

v. Each stereo has 50 parts.

Total parts required = 1200 x 50

                                 = 60000

vi. 45 purchase order was required for 1200 stereos.

Thus:

i. $77 x 45 = $3465

ii. $5 x 60000 = $300000

iii. $4 x 1200 = $4800

iv. $70 x 1200 = $84000

Therefore,

total cost for 1200 stereos = $3465 + $300000 + $4800 + $84000

                                            = $392, 265

Robinson Manufacturing found the following information in its accounting​ records: $ 519 comma 800 of direct materials​ used, $
Damm [24]

Answer:

Cost of good manufactured=  $1507100

Explanation:

To calculate the cost of manufactured goods we need to use the following formula:

Cost of good manufactured= Beginning work in progress+ direct materials of the period + direct labor + manufactured overhead - ending work in progress

Beginning work in progress= 72400

Direct materials = beginning inventory + purchase - ending inventory= 519800

Direct labor= 226700

Manufactured overhead= 775800

Ending work in progress= 87600

Cost of good manufactured= 72400 + 519800 + 226700 + 775800 - 87600= $1507100

Bette and Jamal are partners at a management consulting firm.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Jamal

Explanation:

Given that

Number of required slides = 50 slides

Creating slides Per hour = 15 slides

Bill amount per hour = $750

So by considering the above information, Bette's opportunity cost of creating slides would be

= Bill amount per hour ÷ creating slides per hour

= $750 ÷ 15 per hour

= $50

For making 50 slides, the opportunity cost would be

= $50 × 50 slides

= $2,500

And, Jamal opportunity cost is 30% lower, so it would be  

= $50 - $50 × 30%

= $50 - $15

= $35

And, the billing rate is 25% higher, so it would be

= $750 + $750 × 25%

= $750 + $187.50

= $937.50

So in one hour, it would be

= $937.50 ÷ 35 slides

= 26 slides

Based on the creating slides, the Jamal gains a competitive advantage over Bette

The following information was reported by Young's Air Cargo Service for 2017: Net fixed assets (beginning of year) $ 1,860,000 N
Degger [83]

Answer:

1.56

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Net fixed assets (beginning of year) = $1,860,000

Net fixed assets (end of year) = $2,280,000

Net operating revenues for the year = $3,230,000

Net income for the year = $1,600,000

Now,

company's fixed asset turnover ratio for the year

= Net operating revenues ÷ Average total assets

Also,

Average total assets

= [Net fixed assets (beginning of year) + Net fixed assets (end of year) ] ÷ 2

= [ $1,860,000 + $2,280,000 ] ÷ 2

= $2,070,000

Therefore,

Company's fixed asset turnover ratio for the year

= $3,230,000 ÷ $2,070,000

= 1.56
