In the welding operations of a bicycle manufacturer, a bike frame has a flow time of about 13.6 hours. The time in the welding o

peration is spent as follows: 3 hours waiting in front of the cutting machine for the batch to start, 3 hours waiting for the setup of the machine, 1 hour waiting for the other pieces of the batch to go through cutting, 2 minute at the cutting machine, and 3 hours waiting for the transfer to the welding machine. Then, at the welding machine, the unit spends 1 hour waiting in front of the welding machine for the batch to start, 1 hour waiting for the setup of the welding machine, 0.6 hour waiting for the other pieces of the batch to go through welding, 0.65 minute at the welding machine, and 1 hour waiting for the transfer to the next department.

Answer:

Exact flow time in hours

13.64416 hours

% value added flow time = 0.3236

Explanation:

Hours to start = 3

Set up = 3 hours

Time spent cutting = 2 minutes

Time through cutting = 1 hour

Transfer = 3 hours

Time waiting for welding machine = 1 hour

Time for set up = 1 hour

Time waiting for pieces of batch = 0.6 hours

Time at welding machine = 0.65 minutes

Time to transfer to next department = 1 hour

To get the exact flow time we convert the minutes to hour

2 minutes to hour = 2/60 = 0.03333

0.65 minutes to hour = 0.65/60 = 0.01083

We sum up all of these hours

3+3+0.03333+1+3+1+1+0.6+0.01083+1 = 13.64416 hours

1.

13.64416 is the exact flow time in hours.

2.

Value added percentage of flow time

13.64416-13.6

= 0.04416

Percentage = 0.04416/13.64416*100

= 0.003236x100

= 0.3236%

Portman Industries just paid a dividend of $1.68 per share. The company expects the coming year to be very profitable, and its d
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

What is the expected dividend yield for Portman's stock today?

d. 6.40%

Suppose Portman is considering issuing 62,500 new shares at a price of $26.78 per share. If the new shares are sold to outside investors, by how much will Judy's investment in Portman Industries be diluted on a per-share basis?

a. $0.52 per share

Thus, Judy's investment will be diluted, and Judy will experience a total loss of $0.52 x 7,500 = $3,900

Explanation:

cost of equity = Re = risk free rate of return + (Beta × market premium) = 5% + (0.90 x 6%) = 10.4%

dividend in one year = $1.68 x 120% = $2.016

intrinsic stock price = $2.016 / (10.4% - 4%) = $31.50

expected dividend yield = dividend / stock price = $2.016 / $31.50 = 6.4%

Judy's loss per share = ($31.50 - $26.78) x (62,500 / 562,500) = $0.5244

Answer:

A good use of free cash flow is to Invest in nonoperating assets

Explanation:

Free cash flow (FCF) is a measure of how much cash a business generates after accounting for capital expenditures such as buildings or equipment. This cash can be used for expansion, dividends, reducing debt, or other purposes.

If the underlying objective is to maximize shareholder wealth by increasing the firm’s value. Any use of FCF that negatively affects the firm’s value is not considered a good use of the FCF.
