Answer:

total $3.36

Explanation:

required for producing 50 gallons of wine:

2,400 ounces of grape concentrate at $0.01 per ounce = $24 / 50 = $0.48 x 1.04 = $0.50

54 pounds of granulated sugar at $0.50 per pound  = $27 / 50 = $0.54 x 1.1 = $0.59

60 lemons at $0.80 each  = $48 / 50 = $0.96 x 1.25 = $1.20

100 yeast tablets at $0.21 each  = $21 / 50 = $0.42

100 nutrient tablets at $0.14 each  = $14 / 50 = $0.28

3,700 ounces of water at $0.005 per ounce = $18.50 / 50 = $0.37

Hank estimates that 4% of the grape concentrate is wasted, 10% of the sugar is lost, and 25% of the lemons cannot be used.

total standard cost per gallon:

  • grape concentrate = $0.50
  • granulated sugar = $0.59
  • lemons = $1.20
  • yeast tablets = $0.42
  • nutrient tablets = $0.28
  • water = $0.37
  • total $3.36

Kohler Inc. wants to replace a 10 year old machine with a new machine that is more efficient. The old machine cost $80,000 when
Reptile [31]

Answer:

no option is correct, the correct answer is $12,630

Explanation:

after tax salvage value of old machine = $12,000 - [($12,000 - $15,000) x 21%] = $12,000 - (-$3,000 x 21%) = $12,000 - -$630 = $12,630

the tax shield generated by this loss (market value is lower than book value) = $630

the cash received form the sale = $12,000

the combined effect = $12,000 + $630 = $12,630

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Effect on income= $15,000 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

It has just determined that another $40,000 of repair work is required. Alternatively, it has found a newer used lift that is for sale for $170,000. The company estimates that both lifts would have useful lives of 6 years. The new lift is more efficient and thus would reduce operating expenses by about $20,000 per year. Darcy Roofing could also rent out the new lift for about $10,000 per year. The old lift is not suitable for rental. The old lift could currently be sold for $25,000 if the new lift is purchased.

Year 0= -170,000 + 25,000 + 40,000= -105,000

Year 1 trough 6= 20,000*6= 120,000

Effect on income= $15,000 favorable

Ric wants to invest in government securities that promise to pay $1,000 at maturity. The opportunity cost (interest rate) of hol
lutik1710 [3]

Answer: An investment that matures in five years

Explanation:

Both investments may be of equal risks, but by virtue of having different maturity dates, they will not be priced the same.

This is because the discount rate (opportunity cost) will discount the maturity value more the longer the investment is such that the present value is lower.

4 year investment

= 1,000 / (1.068)^4

= $768.63

5 year investment

= 1,000 / (1.068)^5

= $719.69

The 5 year investment will have a lower present value and will be charged lower.
