Answer and explanation:
a.
the table below shows the impact of dropping beta product
Loss of Contribution Margin if Beta is Dropped (75,000*64) -$4,800,000
Traceable Fixed Manufacturing Overhead (123,000*33) $4,059,000
Incremental Contribution Margin from Additional Alpha Sales (15,000*72)
$1,080,000
Increase in Net Operating Income if Beta is Dropped $339,000
Notes:
Contribution Margin Per Unit (Beta) = 150 (Selling Price) - 15 (Direct Material) - 28 (Direct Labor) - 20 (Variable Manufacturing Overhead) - 23 (Variable Selling Expenses) = $64 per unit
Contribution Margin Per Unit (Alpha) = 195 (Selling Price) - 40 (Direct Material) - 34 (Direct Labor) - 22 (Variable Manufacturing Overhead) - 27 (Variable Selling Expenses) = $72 per unit

Answer:
Present Value 5,715,331.32
We are going to accept the project only if the initial investment is at 5,715,331 or below in order to achieve the return to support the cost of capital structure of the company
Accepting a project with a higher cost will not generate enought cashflow to sustain the patyment of debt and the return expected from the stockholders therefore, will generate a economic result and investor will leave the company for other which can sustain their desired return.
Explanation:
We are going to discount the yearly cash-flow at the given rate of 12.50%
then, the terminal value which is the present value of the future period will also be discounted at this rate.
The sum of all this will be the present value of the firm.

The formula we use the present value of a lump sum:

Answer:
Capital gain tax = $1,540.
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
For stocks of A
Profit = (selling price - purchasing price) × units
= ($19 - $23) × 200
= -$800
For stocks of B
Profit = ($57-$41) × 600
= $9,600
Total profit = profit for stock A + profit for stock B
= -$800 + $9,600
= $8,800
Therefore, capital gain for both year = $8,800
Tax rate = 35%
Capital gain tax = Capital gain × Tax rate
= $8,800 × 35%
=$3,080
As share holds for more than a year,
So, Capital gain tax = $3,080 ÷ 2 = $1,540.
