Answer:

The firm's profits if it charges the two prices as mentioned above = $ 1425

Explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

Proof -

we calculate the profits individually for 2 different prices:

When price = $75:

Quantity sold = 15 units

Total revenue = 15 × 75 = $1125

Total cost = Marginal cost × quantity

                  = 20 x 15 = $ 300

⇒Total cost = $300

So,

Profit = 1125 - 300 = $825

When price = $35 :

Quantity sold = 55 - 15 (quantity purchased at price = $75)

⇒Quantity sold = 40

Total revenue = 40 × 35 = $1400

Total cost = Marginal cost × quantity

                 = 20 x 40 = $ 800

⇒Total cost = $800

So,

Profit = 1400 - 800 = $600

Now,

Total combined profit = 825 + 600 = $1425

∴ we get

The firm's profits if it charges the two prices as mentioned above = $ 1425

Orlov [11]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

The sentence is too long and it is missing proper punctuations(like a comma). Reading it without punctuation does not provide room for breathing and therefore needs editing. It will be correct if framed like this; Although you may not have received the e-mail, we have been informed that the division head of the Finance Department is leaving at the end of the month. This sentence has a comma in the right place.

The debt has an interest rate of 8.50% (short term) and 10.50% (long term). The expected rate of return on the company's shares
viva [34]

Answer:

Re = 16.02%

Explanation:

current stock price 36 x 7,660,000 = 275,760,000

cost of equity = 17.5%

current short term debt = 141,600,000

cost of short term debt = 8.5%

current long term debt = 210,600,000

cost of long term debt = 10.5%

total financing = 627,960,000

  • equity = 275,760,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.4391
  • short term debt = 141,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2255
  • long term debt = 210,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.3354

WACC = (0.4391 x 0.175) + (0.2255 x 0.085 x 0.75) + (0.3354 x 0.105 x 0.75) = 0.0768 + 0.0144 + 0.0264 = 0.1176 or 11.76%

under the new structure:

total financing = 627,960,000

  • equity = 325,760,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.5188
  • short term debt = 141,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2255
  • long term debt = 160,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2557

assuming WACC remains unchanged:

0.1176 = (0.5188 x Re) + (0.2255 x 0.085 x 0.75) + (0.2557 x 0.105 x 0.75) = (0.5188 x Re) + 0.0144 + 0.0201 = (0.5188 x Re) + 0.0345

0.5188 x Re = 0.1176 - 0.0345 = 0.0831

Re = 0.0831 / 0.5188 = 0.1602 or 16.02%

Road Gripper Tire Co. manufactures automobile tires. Standard costs and actual costs for direct materials, direct labor, and fac
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

a.

In part a, we need to find the following 3 requirements:

1. Direct Materials Price Variance

2. Direct Materials Quantity Variance

3. Total Direct Materials Cost Variance

Direct Materials Price Variance:

It can be calculated by using the following formula:

DMPV = AQ multiplied by (AP minus the SP)

Where,  

DMPV = Direct Materials Price Variance

AQ = Actual Quantity

AP = Actual Price

SP = Standard Price

We do have all the data, so just plug in the values into the above equation to get the DMPV.

AQ = 101,000

AP  = 6.50 USD

SP = 6.40 USD

So,

DMPV = 101,000 ( 6.50 - 6.40)

DMPV = 10,100 USD

Direct Materials Quantity Variance:

DMQV = SP ( AQ - SQ )

Where,

DMQV = Direct Materials Quantity Variance = ?

SP  = Standard Price  = 6.40 USD

AQ = Actual Quantity  = 101,000

SQ = Standard Quantity  = 100,000

Plugging in the values:

DMQV  = 6.40  ( 101,000 - 100,000)

DMQV = 6400 USD

Total Direct Materials Cost Variance:

DMCV = SMC - AMC

Where,

DMCV =  Direct Materials Cost Variance = ?

SMC = Standard Market Cost = 6.40 USD x 100,000

AMC = Actual market Cost = 6.50 USD x 101,000

DMCV = (6.40 USD x 100,000) - (6.50 USD x 101,000)

DMCV = 640,000 - 656,500

DMCV =  16,500 USD

b.

For part b, we need following particulars:

1. Direct Labor Rate Variance (DLRV)

2. Direct Labor Time Variance (DLTV)

3. Direct Labor Cost Variance  (DLCV)

Direct Labor Rate Variance (DLRV) :

DLRV = (ADLR - SDLR) x ADLH

Where,

ADLR  = Actual Direct Labor Rate = 15.40 USD

SDLR = Standard Direct Labor Rate = 15.75 USD

ADLH = Actual Direct Labor Hour = 2000

So,

DLRV = (ADLR - SDLR) x ADLH

DLRV =  (15.40 USD  - 15.75 USD  ) x 2000

DLRV = 700 USD

Direct Labor Time Variance (DLTV):

DLTV = ( ADLH - SDLH ) x SDLR

SDLH = Standard Direct Labor Hour = 2080

DLTV = ( 2000  - 2080 ) x 15.75 USD  

DLTV = 1260 USD

Direct Labor Cost Variance  (DLCV)

DLCV = SDLC - ADLC

SDLC = Standard Direct Labor Cost  

ADLC = Actual Direct Labor Cost

DLCV =  (1540 x 2000) - (15.75 x 2080)

DLCV = 1960 USD

c.

For Part c, we need following:

1. variable factory overhead controllable variance (VFOCV)

2. fixed factory overhead volume variance (FFOVV)

3. Total factory overhead cost variance (TFOCV)

variable factory overhead controllable variance (VFOCV):

VFOCV =  AFO - B

Where,

AFO = Actual Factory Overhead  = 8200

B = Budgeted Allowance Based on Standard Hours Allowed = 4160x0.5x4

B = 8320 USD

VFOCV =  8200 - 8320  

VFOCV =   120 USD

fixed factory overhead volume variance (FFOVV) :

FFOVV = (S - BH ) x SOR

Where,

S = Standard Hours for actual output = 4160 x 0.5

BH = Budgeted Hours = 2080

SOR = Standard Overhead Rate = 6 USD

FFOVV = (4160 x 0.5  - 2080) x 6

FFOVV =  0 USD

Total factory overhead cost variance (TFOCV):

TFOCV = AFO - SO

Where,

AFO = Actual Factory Overhead = 20,200

SO = Standard Overhead = 2080 x 10

TFOCV =  20,200 - ( 2080 x 10  )

TFOCV =  600 USD
