Answer:

1. Hourly Direct Labor Cost rate = Direct Labor cost / Direct Labor hours

Hourly Direct Labor Cost rate = 2,500,000 / 25,000

Hourly Direct Labor Cost rate = $100 per hour

<u>Computation of Indirect cost</u>

Office Rent                     $320,000

Support staff salaries    $1,260,000

Utilities                           <u>$420,000</u>

Total Indirect Costs      <u>$2,000,000</u>

Predetermined indirect cost allocation rate = = Total Estimated indirect cost / Total estimated direct labor cost  = 2,000,000 / 2,500,000  = 80% of Direct Cost

2.  Direct Labor            $25,000  (250 * 100)

Indirect Cost               <u>$20,000</u>  (25,000 * 80%)

Total Predicted cost   <u>$45,000</u>

3. Predicted cost                   $45,000

Desired Profit                       <u>$22,500</u> (50% of $45,000)

Nordstrom, Inc. operates department stores in numerous states. Suppose selected financial statement data (in millions) for 2020
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

a. Current ratio = Total current assets/Total current liabilities

Current ratio = $6,840/$3,420

Current ratio = 2 : 1

b. Accounts receivable turnover = Net credit sales / [Net beginning accounts receivables + Net ending accounts receivables / 2]

Accounts receivable turnover = $13,940 / [$3,300+$3,500/2]

Accounts receivable turnover = $13,940 / $3,400

Accounts receivable turnover = 4.1 times

c. Average collection period = 365 / Accounts receivables turnover

Average collection period = 365 / 4.1

Average collection period = 89.0244

Average collection period = 89 days

d. Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / [Beginning inventory+Ending inventory/2]

Inventory turnover = $9,000 / [$1,500+$1,500/2]

Inventory turnover = $9,000 / $1,500

Inventory turnover = 6 times

e. Days in inventory at the end of the current year = 365 / Inventory turnover

Days in inventory at the end of the current year = 365 / 6

Days in inventory at the end of the current year = 60.8333

Days in inventory at the end of the current year = 61 days

CAPM and Valuation. You are considering acquiring a firm that you believe can generate expected cash flows of $10,000 a year for
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The value of the firm or worth of the firm is $147058.82 rounded off to 2 decimal places

Explanation:

We first need to calculate the required rate of return for this firm that will be used as the discount rate in the valuation of the firm using the discounted cash flow methods.

Using the CAPM we can calculate the required rate of return as,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rM is the return on Market

So,

r = 0.04 + 0.4 * (0.11 - 0.04)

r = 0.068 or 6.8%

As the cash flows the firm can generate are expected to remain constant through out and they are generated after equal interval of time, this can be treated as a perpetuity.

The present value of a perpetuity is calculated as follows,

Present Value of perpetuity = Cash Flow / r

Present value of perpetuity = 10000 / 0.068

Present value of perpetuity = $147058.8235

So, the value of the firm or worth of the firm is $147058.82 rounded off to 2 decimal places

The double-entry principle in the balance-of-payments
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The Current account is for goods and services.

The Financial account is for exchange of currencies and financial assets across countries.

Miguel, a U.S. resident, buys an HDTV set for  $2,500 and sends it to Mexico as a gift to his parents. <u>DEBIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. CREDIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. </u>

Miguel buys the good in the U.S. and then sends it so this falls under the current account alone.

Arielle, a French tourist, stays at a hotel in San  Francisco and pays $400 for it with her debit  card issued by a French bank. <u>DEBIT FINANCIAL ACCOUNT. CREDIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. </u>

The Financial account should be debited to show that currency is coming into the U.S. from outside the country and current account should be credited for services rendered.

A U.S. computer manufacturer purchases hard  drives from a Korean company, paying the funds  from its bank account in Korea. <u>DEBIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. CREDIT FINANCIAL ACCOUNT. </u>

Current account should be debited to reflect that goods are coming into the country but the financial account should be credited to show that currency is leaving the ownership of an American entity so it is passing out of American hands.

Ending total assets are $1,500,000, inventory turnover is 6.0 times, net sales are $8,000,000 and the asset turnover is 4.0 time
NARA [144]

Answer:

$2,500,000

Explanation:

Data provided

Ending assets = $1,500,000

Inventory turnover = 6.0 times

Net sales = $8,000,000

The computation of beginning total asset balance is shown below:-

Average total assets = $8,000,000 ÷ 4

= $2,000,000

Total assets = $2,000,000 × 2

= $4,000,000

Beginning assets  = Total assets - Ending assets

= $4,000,000  - 1,500,000

= $2,500,000

Therefore we applied the above formula
