Under which conditions, according to the Porter five-forces model, can a supplier group gain power?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

b. When there is a lack of importance of the buyer to the supplier group

Explanation:

According to Porter there are five forces that can cause rivalry in a production industry. These are supplier power, threat of new entrants, buyer power, threat of substitutes, and degree of rivalry.

Supplier power is when suppliers are able to benefit from the producers by increasing prices of inputs and gaining some industry profit. Since suppliers supply input and labour to the producer they have a greater control of there is lack of importance of the buyer to the supplier group.

This means that the supplier group has more control on price and quality it supplies to the buyer with buyer having little choice but to buy.

If however buyer is more important to the supplier it means they can control price and quality of inputs

Kohler Corporation reports the following components of stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2018. Common stock—$10 par value, 10
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Kohler Corporation

Journal Entries:

Jan. 2:

Debit Treasury Stock $45,000

Debit Paid-in Capital In Excess of Par $67,500

Credit Cash Account $112,500

To record the purchase of 4,500 shares of its own stock at $25 per share.

Jan. 5:

Debit Dividends $71,000

Credit Dividends Payable $71,000

To record the declaration of $2 per share cash dividend.

Feb. 28:

Debit Dividends Payable $71,000

Credit Cash Account $71,000

To record the payment of cash dividend on 35,500 shares at $2 per share.

July 6:

Debit Cash Account $48,952

Credit Treasury Stock $16,880

Credit Paid-in Capital In Excess of Par $32,072

To record the sale of treasury stock shares at $29 per share.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Common stock—$10 par value, 100,000 shares authorized,

40,000 shares issued and outstanding $ 400,000

Paid-in capital in excess of par value,

common stock                                             60,000

Retained earnings                                      460,000

Total stockholders' equity                      $ 920,000

b) The purchase on Jan. 2 of its own stock of 4,500 shares, the cash receipt is credited to the Cash Account while the Treasury Stock is debited, but only with the par value of the repurchased shares if the par value method is adopted.  If the costing method is adopted, the value to be debited to the Treasury Stock account would have $112,500 without any debit to the Paid-in Capital In Excess of Par.  This is also followed when the sale of 1,688 treasury shares at $29 per share takes place on July 6, but with opposite entries.

c) To compute the dividend payable, the treasury stock shares of 4,500 are deducted from the outstanding shares of 40,000.  This means that the shareholders of record have shares outstanding totalling 35,500 (40,000 - 4,500).

d) The general journal is used in these cases to record the transactions initially in the books of Kohler Corporation.  They show the accounts to be debited and the others to be credited, since two accounts or more are usually involved in any business transaction.

A produce distributor uses 774 packing crates a month, which it purchases at a cost of $12 each. The manager has assigned an ann
ki77a [65]

Answer:

$444.42

Explanation:

For computing the saving amount, first need to calculate the economic order quantity, total cost etc

The economic order quantity is

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

where,

Annual demand is

= 774 packaging crates × 12 months

= 9,932 crates

And, the carrying cost is

= $12 × 34%

= $4.08

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{9,288}\times \text{\$29}}{\text{\$4.08}}}

= 363.37 crates

Now the total cost is

= Annual ordering cost + Annual carrying cost

= Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit

= 9,288 ÷ 363 × $29 + 363 ÷ 2 × $4.08

= $742.02 + $740.52

= $1,482.54

Now the total cost in case of 774 packing crates is

= Annual ordering cost + Annual carrying cost

= Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit

= 9,288 ÷ 774 × $29 + 774 ÷ 2 × $4.08

= $348 + $1,578.96

= $1,926.96

So, the annual saving cost is

= $1,926.96 - $1,482.54

= $444.42
