Borques Company

a. Unit inventory cost = $7.27

b. Ending inventory = 3,900 units

c. Absorption-costing operating income = $73,569

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Variable costs per unit:

Direct materials      $2.85

Direct labor             $1.92

Variable overhead $1.60  $6.37

Variable selling     $0.90   $7.27

Fixed costs per year:

Fixed overhead                $180,000

Selling and administrative $96,000  $276,000

Selling price per unit = $9

Acceptable per-unit inventory cost:

Variable product cost per unit = $6.37

Total variable production cost = $1,274,000

Fixed production cost =                   180,000

Total production cost =              $1,453,000

Unit inventory cost = $7.27 ($1,453,000/200,000)

b. Ending inventory

Beginning inventory   8,200

Production units = 200,000

Units available       208,200

Sales units =          204,300

Ending inventory       3,900

c. Absorption Costing Operating Income:

Sales Revenue                 $1,838,700 ($9 * 204,300)

Cost of goods sold             1,485,261 ($7.27 * 204,300)

Gross profit                        $353,439

Selling expenses:

Variable ($0.90 * 204,300) 183,870

Fixed                                     96,000

Total selling expenses    $279,870

Operating income             $73,569

If d0 = $1.75, g (which is constant) = 3.6%, and p0 = $40.00, what is the stock's expected total return for the coming year?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

The answer is <u>"a. 8.13%".</u>

Explanation:

Given that;

d0 = $1.75

p0 = $40.00

g = 3.6% = 0.036

By using the formula;

Price of the stock = (Dividend this year)(1+g) ÷ (r - g)  

By putting the values;

40 = (1.75)(1+0.036) ÷ (r - 0.036)

r - 0.036 = (1.75)(1.036) ÷ 40

r - 0.036 = 1.813 ÷ 40

r - 0.036 = 0.045325

r = 0.045325 + 0.036

r = 0.081325 = 0.081325 x 100

<u>r = 8.13%</u>

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The Project should be rejected.

The Net present value is lower than zero. Meaning the returns on the investment yields a loss, as we are not able to cover our initial investments.

Explanation:

The Present value of the inflow and outflow should be considered before deciding the viability of the project.

Using the Net Present Value approach, we will want to consider against the outflows and at a certain cost of capital/rate of return if this projects meets at least the minimum threshold of breaking even. At this point the net cash flow would be at least zero for the project to be accepted.

Functions of money and barter
blagie [28]

Solution :

When the people of this economy trades three of their goods, the price of the good must list 1 price and then the economy requires 3 prices for the people to carry transactions.

Suppose the number of the goods that people trade increases to 15 number, then the price of the goods must list one price and the number of the price that the economy requires increases to 15.

Money has an intrinsic value and it is the unit of account, while that of the currency is the measure of the value and have a purchasing power that government is bestowed on it being a legal tender.

The store of the value characteristics is negatively impacted. But because the ongoing increase in the cost of the standard implies inflation that means that the value of the assets as accounted by the store has a value function as the money decreases.

Even when the cost of the living increases, the money serves as the best medium of exchange and a unit of the account.

Double coincidence of the wants is the barter system that is required.
