Answer:

Highlands Company

The interest capitalized for 2018 using the specific interest method is:

= $268,740.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Amount borrowed on January 1, 2018 = $2,350,000

Rate of interest for the construction loan = 9%

Outstanding debts throughout 2018:

$7,000,000, 14% bonds

$3,000,000, 9% long-term note

Construction Expenditures incurred during 2018:

Date                    Expenditure     Weight       Weighted Average

January 1             $ 960,000         12/12           $960,000

March 31              1,560,000           9/12            1,170,000

June 30               1,232,000           6/12              616,000

September 30      960,000            3/12             240,000

December 31        760,000            0/12                         0

Total accumulated weighted-average expenditure = $2,986,000

Interest capitalized for 2018 using the specific interest method:

= $268,740 ($2,986,000 * 9%)

Net operating income would be decreased by $137,000

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Sales                                          $490,000

Less: Variable expenses           ($221,000)

Contribution margin                  $269,000

Less

Fixed manufacturing expenses ($90,000)

Fixed selling and administrative expenses ($42,000)

As an importer of grain into Japan from the United States, you have agreed to pay $377,287 in 90 days after you receive your gra
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

B)  ¥6092.53

Explanation:

We can hedge the risk by buying dollars forward contract at a price of ¥106.02/$ which is 90 days forward rate because the payment is due in 90 days. The total contract would amount to ¥106.02/$ * $377,287 = ¥39,999,967.74

The second alternative is to buy dollar at todays date. The present value of the dollars will be ;

$377,287 / 1.008125 = $374,246.25  

If we buy dollars at spot rate then,

¥106.35/$ × $374,246.25 = ¥39,801,088.69

The future value of yen will be :

¥39,801,088.69 × (1.00484375) = ¥39,993,875.2

The difference between the two alternatives will be :

¥39,999,967.74 -  ¥39,993,875.2 =  ¥6092.53

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$32,000

Explanation:

Net advantage = Annual operating cost

Net advantage = [(Old machine - New machine)*10 life] - New machine cost + Old machine cost

Net advantage = [($320000 - $240000)*10] - $800000 + $32000

Net advantage = [($80000)*10 - $768,000

Net advantage = $800,000 - $768,000

Net advantage = $32,000

So, the net advantage of replacing the old machine is $32,000
