(b1) Waterways is thinking of mass-producing one of its special-order sprinklers. To do so would increase variable costs for all sprinklers by an average of $0.70 per unit. The company also estimates that this change could increase the overall number of sprinklers sold by 10%, and the average sales price would increase $0.20 per unit. Waterways currently sells 491,740 sprinkler units at an average selling price of $26.50. The manufacturing costs are $6,863,512 variable and $2,050,140 fixed. Selling and administrative costs are $2,651,657 variable and $794,950 fixed. If Waterways begins mass-producing its special-order sprinklers, how would this affect the company

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

operating income will increase by $81,137.10 or 12.09%

Explanation:

we must first determine the old contribution margin of the sprinklers:

total variable costs = $6,863,512 + $2,651,657 = $9,515,169

total units sold = 491,740

variable cost per unit = $9,515,169 / 491,740 = $19.35

selling price per unit = $26.50

old contribution margin = $26.50 - $19.35 = $7.15

the new contribution margin per unit:

selling price = $26.70

variable cost per unit = $20.05

new contribution margin = $6.65

increase in units sold = 491,740 x 10% = 49,174 units

the impact of new product:

before, the company's total contribution margin was 491,740 x $7.15 = $3,515,941

operating income = $3,515,941 - $2,050,140 - $794,950 = $670,851

the new total contribution margin = 540,914 x $6.65 = $3,597,078.10

new operating income = $3,597,078.10 - $2,050,140 - $794,950 = $751,988.10

change in operating income = $751,988.10 - $670,851 = $81,137.10 or 12.09% increase

You can purchase a tract of land for $75,000 that you believe you can develop and sell as a residential development. Your development costs are $60,000 to be incurred immediately. You expect to sell all the lots in years 3-5 at a net income of $70,000, $85,000, and $68,000 respectively. Your required rate of return is 12 percent. Do you purchase the tract of land? HTML EditorKeyboard Shortcuts

Answers

Answer:

The tract of land should be purchased

Explanation:

To determine if the land should be bought, compare the present value of the income that would be derived from selling the lots to the cost of the land

Total cost of the land = $75,000 + $60,000 = $135,000

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 1 and 2 = 0

Cash flow in year 3 =  $70,000

Cash flow in year 4 =  $85,000

Cash flow in year 5 =  $68,000

I = 12%

Present value = $142,428.68

The tract of land should be purchased because the present value of the cash flows is greater than the cost of the land

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Answers

Answer: See attachment

Explanation:

Note:

April 17:

Account payable- Lyon Company:

= $5000 - $750

= $4250

Merchandise inventory:

= $4250 × 2%

= $4250 × 0.02

= $85

Cash = $4250 - $85

= $4165

April 28:

Account payable- Frist Corp:

= $9300 - $500

= $8800

Merchandise inventory:

= $8800 × 1%

= $8800 × 0.01

= $88

Cash = $8800 - $88

= $8712
