CarCut Corporation has been employing the Fixed-Order Quantity model to manage the inventory of its best selling 3D printer. The current inventory policy places exactly 60 orders each year. The monthly inventory holding cost is $25 per unit and the setup cost is $50 per order. The demand during lead time is constant, and it takes a lead time of 2 days to receive a shipment. Assume CarCut operates 360 days per year. What is the optimal reorder point in units
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The optimal reorder point in units is calculated as the average daily sales unit multiplied by the delivery lead time.
In the question, we're not provided with the annual demand as this is vital in order to know the average daily unit. Therefore, the question is incomplete
The CarCut Corporation's optimal reorder point in units is 208 units.
Data and Calculations:
Number of orders per year = 60 orders
Monthly inventory holding cost = $25 per unit
Setup cost = $50 per order
Number of operating days per year = 360 days
Lead time = 2 days
Number of times for orders per year = 180 (360/2)
Total annual demand = 10,800 (60 x 180)
Optimal reorder point in units = EOQ = square root of (2 x 10,800 x $50)/$25
= 208 units

The Smoot-Hawley Act, signed into law in 1930, increased U.S. tariffs to an unprecedented level of 53%, causing a sharp decline in U.S. exports. In 1934, however, changes in the U.S. trade policy enabled U.S. manufacturers to resume business with their foreign distributors. Which of the following is the most likely reason for the increase in U.S. exports after these changes?
A. The president received the authority to negotiate bilateral tariff-reduction agreements with foreign governments.
B. The scientific tariff was introduced, which allowed the president to increase tariff levels if foreign production costs were below those of the United States.
C. Congress was given the authority to approve bilateral trade agreements.
Answer:
A. The president received the authority to negotiate bilateral tariff-reduction agreements with foreign governments.
Explanation:
Since in the given situation it is mentioned that in the year 1934 the change in the trade policy enables the manufactured of U.S to restart their business with the foreign distributors so the reason that would increase the U.S exports would be that the president should received the authority in order to negotiate the agreement with the foreign government with respect to the decrease in the bilaterial tariff
Hence, the option A is corrrect

Marilee's Electronics uses a periodic inventory system and the average cost retail method to estimate ending inventory and cost of goods sold. The following data is available from the company records for the month of June 2021:
Cost Retail Beginning inventory $ 120,000 $ 146,000 Net purchases 383,000 580,000 Net markups 33,000 Net markdowns 51,000 Net sales 600,000
To the nearest thousand, estimated ending inventory is:_______.
Answer:
$76,680
Explanation:
With regards to the above
Using the cost method
Goods available for sale:
= Beginning inventory + Purchases
= $120,000 + $383,000
= $503,000
Using retail method
Goods available for sale
= Beginning inventory + Purchases + Net markups - Net markdowns
= $146,000 + $580,000 + $33,000 - $51,000
= $708,000
Now, cost to retail ratio
= $503,000 ÷ $708,000
= 0.71
Estimated ending inventory at retail
= Goods available for sale under retail method - Net sales revenue
= $708,000 - $600,000
= $108,000
Therefore, estimated ending inventory = Estimated ending inventory at retail × Cost to retail ratio
= $108,000 × 0.71
= $76,680
Kayak Company uses a job order costing system and allocates its overhead on the basis of direct labor costs. Kayak Company's production costs for the year were: direct labor, $30,000; direct materials, $50,000; and factory overhead applied $6,000. The predetermined overhead rate was: Multiple Choice 5.0%. 12.0%. 20.0%. 500.0%. 16.7%
Answer:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 20%
Explanation:
To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
6,000= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate*30,000
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 6,000 /30,000
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $0.2 per direct labor dollar
As a percentage= (0.2/1)*100= 20%

Blossom Company has the following inventory data: July 1 Beginning inventory 35 units at $22 $770 7 Purchases 124 units at $24 2976 22 Purchases 18 units at $26 468 $4214 A physical count of merchandise inventory on July 30 reveals that there are 57 units on hand. Using the LIFO inventory method, the amount allocated to ending inventory for July is
Answer:
Ending invenory= $1,298
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
July 1 Beginning inventory 35 units at $22 $770
July 7 Purchases 124 units at $24 $2,976
July 22 Purchases 18 units at $26 $468
A physical count of merchandise inventory on July 30 reveals that there are 57 units on hand.
To calculate the ending inventory using the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory:
Ending inventory= 35*22 + 22*24
Ending invenory= $1,298
Create a business decision based on the company where you work (can be any company), a small business you hope to own someday or just make something up - then identify, define and explain an incremental cost, opportunity cost and sunk cost. You will need to be somewhat creative in your response.
Respond to this question with 5-7 meaningful sentences (or more - this one could be more)
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The business decision based on the company where you work would be this. To open a new small branch of the fast-food restaurant as a concession in the municipal stadium.
The incremental cost is the future costs as a result of this business decision. This means that we have to consider extra money on a monthly basis to pay for the rent of the concession booth at the Municipal stadium.
The opportunity cost is that instead of opening our branch in the new downtown mall, we decided to move with the stadium option. Having decided to be at the mall could have allowed us to have more clients on a daily basis, especially on weekends.
The sunk cost is a cost from the past, an historical cost that really is not important in the present time to make a decision. Maybe, just a reference to a case in the past. And that's it.
Here we can refer to a cost when we opened the first location of the restaurant, but it was five years ago. Those were different situations, necessities, and conditions.
You are given the following information on Parrothead Enterprises:
Debt: 9,300 6.5 percent coupon bonds outstanding, with 22 years to maturity and a quoted price of 104.75. These bonds pay interest semiannually and have a par value of $1,000.
Common stock: 240,000 shares of common stock selling for $64.80 per share. The stock has a beta of.93 and will pay a dividend of $3.00 next year. The dividend is expected to grow by 5.3 percent per year indefinitely.
Preferred stock: 8,300 shares of 4.65 percent preferred stock selling at $94.30 per share. The par value is $100 per share.
Market: 11.7 percent expected return, risk-free rate of 3.75 percent, and a 23 percent tax rate.
Calculate the company's WACC. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) WACC %
Answer:
8.19%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the company's WACC
First step is to calculate the CAPM rate of equity
Using this formula
CAPM rate of equity = Risk free rate + market risk premium * beta
Let plug in the formula
CAPM rate of equity=3.75%+(11.7%-3.75%)*0.93
CAPM rate of equity=11.14%
Second step is to calculate the DDM rate of equity
Using this formula
DDM rate of equity= Expected dividend next year/Price today + Growth rate
Let plug in the formula
DDM rate of equity=3/64.8+5.3%
DDM rate of equity=9.93%
Third step is to calculate the Cost of equity using this formula
Cost of equity = Average of CAPM and DDM
Let plug in the formula
Cost of equity=(11.14%+9.93%)/2
Cost of equity= 10.54%
Fourth Step is to calculate the Cost of debt (after tax)
Cost of debt (after tax) using financial calculator to compute YTM
PV -1047.5
FV 1000
PMT 1000*6.5%/2 32.5
N 22*2 44
Compute I 3.05%
YTM =3.05%*2 6.10%
Tax rate = 23%
Hence,
Rate of debt (after tax) = 6.1%*(1-23%)
Rate of debt (after tax) = 4.70%
Fifth step is to calculate the Rate of preferred stock using this formula
Rate of preferred stock = Annual dividend/Current price
Let plug in the formula
Rate of preferred stock=4.65/94.3
Rate of preferred stock=4.93
Sixth step is to calculate the Weight
Market value
Source
equity 240000*64.8= 15552000
debt 1047.5*9300= 9741750
preferred stock 8300*94.3=782690
Total 26076440
equity 15552000/26076440= 59.64%
debt 9741750/26076440=37.36%
preferred stock 782690/ 26076440=3.00%
Now let calculate compute WACC
WACC= weight * cost
equity 59.64%*10.54%=6.28%
debt 37.36%* 4.70% =1.76%
preferred stock3.00%*4.93%=0.15%
WACC = 8.19%
(6.28%+1.76%+0.15%)
Therefore the company's WACC is 8.19%
On January 1, 2018, ABC purchased a commercial truck for $48,000 and uses the straight-line depreciation method. The truck has a useful life of eight years and an estimated residual value of $8,000. Assume the truck was totaled in an accident on December 31, 2019. What amount of gain or loss should ABC record on December 31, 2019 (If a loss, put a minus number in front)
Answer:
$38,000 Loss
Explanation:
Calculation to determine What amount of gain or loss should ABC record on December 31, 2019
First step is to calculate the depreciation per year
Depreciation per year =($48,000 − $8,000)/8 years
Depreciation per year= $5,000
Now let determine calculation the book value After two years,
Book value= [$48,000 − ($5,000 × 2 years)]
Book value=$48,000-$10,000
Book value= $38,000 Loss
Therefore the amount of loss that ABC should record on December 31, 2019 is $38,000
The balance sheet of Indian River Electronics Corporation as of December 31, 2020, included 11.75% bonds having a face amount of $91.5 million. The bonds had been issued in 2013 and had a remaining discount of $4.5 million at December 31, 2020. On January 1, 2021, Indian River Electronics called the bonds before their scheduled maturity at the call price of 102.
Required: Prepare the journal entry by Indian River Electronics to record the redemption of the bonds at January 1, 2021. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field. Enter your answers in whole dollars.)
Answer:
January 1, 2021
Bonds Payable $91.5 million Dr
Loss on Redemption-Bonds Payable $6.33 million Dr
Discount on Bonds Payable $4.5 million Cr
Cash $93.33 million Cr
Explanation:
To calculate the loss on redemption of the bonds, we first need to calculate the value at which bonds have been redeemed. The bonds are redeemed at 102 which means they are redeemed at 102% of the face value.
Redemption amount = 91.5 million * 102% = 93.33 million
The bonds have a carrying value on redemption date of,
Carrying value = Face Value - Discount
Carrying value = 91.5 - 4.5 = $87 million
The loss on redemption of bonds is = 93.33 - 87 = $6.33 million

A $500,000 bond issue sold at 98. Therefore, the bonds: Multiple Choice Sold at a premium because the stated rate of interest was higher than the yield rate. Sold at a discount because the stated rate of interest was lower than the effective rate. Sold at a discount because the effective interest rate was lower than the face rate. Sold for the $500,000 face amount less $10,000 of accrued interest.
Answer: Sold at a discount because the stated rate of interest was lower than the effective rate.
Explanation:
The stated rate of interest is the coupon rate. This is the interest rate at which the bond will make periodic payments.
The effective rate is the market rate. This is the rate that will discount the bond to the present.
If the effective rate is higher than the stated rate of interest, the coupon payments will be discounted such that the current price of the bond will be less than par.
The above bond had a par of 100 but was issued at 98. It was issued at a discount which means that the effective rate was higher than the stated rate.
Levine Inc., which produces a single product, has prepared the following standard cost sheet for one unit of the product. Direct materials (9 pounds at $1.90 per pound) $17.10 Direct labor (4 hours at $10.00 per hour) $40.00 During the month of April, the company manufactures 160 units and incurs the following actual costs. Direct materials purchased and used (2,100 pounds) $4,410 Direct labor (680 hours) $6,664 Compute the total, price, and quantity variances for materials and labor.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. Total materials variance
= (Actual quantity - Actual price) - (Standard quantity × Standard price)
= $4,410 - [(160 × 9) × $1.9]
= $4,140 - $2,736
= $1,404 unfavorable
2. Materials price variance
= (Actual quantity × Actual price) - (Actual quantity × Standard price)
= $4,140 - (2,100 × $1.9)
= $4,140 - $3,990
= $150 unfavorable
3. Materials quantity variance
= (Actual quantity × Standard price) - (Standard quantity × Standard price)
= (2,100 × $1.9) - [(160 × 9) × $1.9]
= $3,990 - $2,736
= $1,254 unfavorable
4. Total labor variance
= (Actual hours × Actual rate) - (Standard hours - Standard rate)
= $6,664 - (160 × 4) × $10
= $6,664 - $6,400
= $264 unfavorable

1. What is the company’s contribution margin (CM) ratio?
Contribution margin (CM) = Total sales - Total variable expenses = $282,000 - $214,320 = $67,680
Contribution margin (CM) ratio = Contribution margin / Total sales = $67,680 / $282,000 = 0.24, or 24%
2. What is the estimated change in the company’s net operating income if it can increase total sales by $1,700? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Estimated change in the company’s net operating income = Increase total in sales * Contribution margin (CM) ratio = $1.700 * 24% = $408

For 2021, Rahal's Auto Parts estimates bad debt expense at 1% of credit sales. The company reported accounts receivable and an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $91,000 and $3,000, respectively, at December 31, 2020. During 2021, Rahal's credit sales and collections were $413,000 and $417,000, respectively, and $3,690 in accounts receivable were written off. Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021, is:
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021 would be calculated as;
Step 1
= $413,000 × 1%
= $413,000 × 0.01
= $4,130
Step 2
= $3,000 - $3,690
= ($690)
Step 3
= $4,130 + ($690)
= $4,130 - $690
= $3,440
Therefore, Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2020 is $3,440

Complete sentences are not necessary. Lesson 1 (5.0 points) 1. What is outsourcing
Answer:
Outsourcing is a cost reduction practice where Company A contracts Company B or another party to carry out services or produce goods that Company A used to produce for itself.
It is done when paying Company B to perform the services, is cheaper than performing it themselves which would enable Company A to cut down on costs.
For example, it costs Company A $5 per customer service call if they do it themselves but it would cost $3 per call if they let Company B handle it. Outsourcing is where they pay Company B that $3 to handle the calls and save $2.
The cashew industry is perfectly competitive and until now each of the identical firms in the industry have been earning zero economic profits while selling ay units of output each (for a combined industry-wide total of qy units) at a market equilibrium price of P1 per unit. An unexpected increase in the demand for cashews raises the market equilibrium price to P2, which creates a situation in which P2 exceeds MC at 91 units of output.
a. If the firms continued producing 91 units each, would their combined output of cashews be too little, too much, or just right to achieve allocative efficiency?
i. Just right
ii. Too much
iii. Too little
b. In the long run, what will happen to the supply of cashews and the price of cashews?
i. The industry's supply of cashews will exceed Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P1.
ii. The industry's supply of cashews will be less than Q1 and the price of cashews will be less than P1.
iii. The industry's supply of cashews will equal Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P2.
iv. The industry's supply of cashews will exceed Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P2.
Answer:
a. iii. Too little
b. i. The industry's supply of cashews will exceed Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P1.
Explanation:
Allocative efficiency refers to the point in production where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal cost. As this is a perfectly competitive market, marginal revenue is the same as price which as shown in the question, exceeds Marginal cost. The firms are therefore producing too little to achieve allocative efficiency and need to produce more to make price and marginal cost equal.
In the long run, the firms will produce more such that supply would exceed the original quantity supplied of Q1. This will lead to the price falling back to P1 as there is now less scarcity.
