A manager wants to determine the number of containers to use for incoming parts for a kanban system to be installed next month.

The process will have a usage rate of 70 pieces per hour. Because the process is new, the manager has assigned an inefficiency factor of .15. Each container holds 40 pieces and it takes an average of 45 minutes to complete a cycle.
a-1. How many containers should be used? (Round up your answer to the next whole number.) Number of containers __________a-2. As the system improves, will more or fewer containers be required?*Fewer*More

Answer:

a. 1.51 containers

b. Fewer

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

a. The number of containers would be

= Annual demand × time × (1 + inefficiency factor) ÷ holding pieces

= 70 × 0.75 × (1 + 0.15) ÷ 40

= 1.51 containers

The time is converted from minutes to hour i.e 45 minutes ÷ 60 minutes = 0.75

b. If the system improves, the fewer containers are required i.e 2 containers approximate because inefficiency factor got decreased

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

the earning per common share is $3.83 per share

Explanation:

The computation of the earning per common share is shown below

= Net income ÷ weighted number of outstanding shares

= $1,143,000 ÷ (298,000 shares)

= $3.83 per share

We simply divided the net income from the  weighted number of outstanding shares so that the earning per share could be determined

hence, the earning per common share is $3.83 per share

On January 1, 2016 Ballard Company spent $13,000 on an asset to improve its quality. The asset had been purchased on January 1,
tekilochka [14]

$24,800 would be the book value of the asset on January 1, 2019

Explanation:

Straight-line depreciation is a popular depreciation process in which the value of a fixed asset slowly declines over its useful life.

Straight line depreciation is the default method used to slowly reduce the amount of a fixed product over its useful life.

Divide the estimated useful life (in years) into 1 to arrive at the straight-line depreciation rate.

Multiply the depreciation rate by the asset cost (less salvage value).

For example, if a of $20,000 and a useful life of 5 years. The straight line depreciation for the machine would be calculated as follows: Cost of the asset: $100,000. Cost of the asset – Estimated salvage value: $100,000 – $20,000 = $80,000 total depreciable cost.

Firm A has a 21 percent marginal tax rate, and Firm Z has a 28 percent marginal tax rate. Firm A owns a controlling interest in
Aliun [14]

Answer:

a. $7,505

b.$6,840

Explanation:

a. Computation for the after-tax cost of the expense assuming that Firm A incurs the expense

Using this formula

After-tax cost = Deductible Expense - (Firm A Marginal tax rate* Deductible Expense)

Let plug in the formula

After-tax cost = ($9,500 - ($21%*9500)

After-tax cost = ($9,500 - $1,995)

After-tax cost=$7,505

Therefore the after-tax cost of the expense assuming that Firm A incurs the expense is $7,505

B. Computation for the after-tax cost of the expense assuming that Firm Z incurs the expense

Using this formula

After-tax cost = Deductible Expense - (Firm Z Marginal tax rate*Deductible Expense)

Let plug in the formula

After-tax cost =$9,500 -(28%*$9500)

After-tax cost =($9,500 - $2,660 )

After-tax cost=$6,840

Therefore the after-tax cost of the expense assuming that Firm Z incurs the expense is $6,840
