Of all the promotional tools we looked at, which one is the most effective in getting your attention and interesting you in a product? Conversely, which of the tools is something that has a slim to zero chance of reaching you, much less interesting you?

Answers

Answer:

There are basically four tools of promotion namely, Advertisement, public relations, sales promotions, and direct marketing.

Of these, direct marketing will be most effective in capturing my attention while public relations will be less effective to me.

Explanation:

Direct marketing involves establishing direct communication with the potential buyer. It allows for a personal relationship with the buyer. Media such as telemarketing, direct mails, and face-to-face marketing are used to sell the goods. I will be easily convinced because I can easily relate with the person selling the goods and ask questions about the product.

Public relations refers to ways the company formally promotes its image to maintain its customer base. Press release is a measure employed by these companies. I will not be captivated by this because of the formality involved. I believe that through these measures, the company only lets out information they will like you t know.

If a firm has a cash cycle of 30 days and an operating cycle of 64 days, what is its average payment period

Answers

Answer: 34 days

Explanation:

The average payment period is a measure that is used to show the time the firm takes on average to pay its creditors.

The formula is:

Cash cycle = Operating cycle - Average payment period

30 = 64 - APP

APP + 30 = 64

APP = 64 - 30

APP = 34 days

Answers

Answer:

$187,750

Explanation:

Computation for operating income for the West Division.

OPERATING INCOME FOR THE WEST DIVISION

Sales $450,000

Less Cost of goods sold ($155,000)

Gross profit $295,000

($450,000-155,000)

Less: Salary Expense ($51,000)

Allocated rent ($56,250)

($90,000 * 11250/18,000)

West Division income $187,750

Total area of both division = 11,250 + 6,750 = 18,000 square feet

Therefore operating income for the West Division is $187,750

asino Inc. expects to pay a dividend of $3 per share at the end of year 1 (Div1) and these dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 6 percent per year forever. If the required rate of return on the stock is 18 percent, what is the current value of the stock today?

Answers

Answer:

the current stock of the value today is $25

Explanation:

The computation of the current stock of the value today is shown below:

Next year dividend D1 = $3

growth rate g =6% forever

rate of return = 18%

So,

Current Stock Price P = D1 ÷ (r - g)

=3 ÷ (18% - 6%)

= 3 ÷ 12%

= 3 ÷ 0.12

= $25

Hence, the current stock of the value today is $25

Both Bond Sam and Bond Dave have 8 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Sam has 3 years to maturity, whereas Bond Dave has 18 years to maturity. If interest rates suddenly rise by 5 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of Bond Sam

Answers

Answer: -12.1%

Explanation:

Bond Sam was priced at Par which means it could have been priced at $1,000 and its yield was the same as the coupon rate of 8%.

If interest rates rise by 5%, the yield becomes:

= 8% + 5%

= 13%

Price of bond is attached:

Yield = 13% /2 = 6.5% per semiannual period

Coupon = 8% * 1,000 * 0.5 = $40 per semi annual period

Period till maturity = 3 * 2 = 6 semiannual periods

Price = $878.97

Percentage change in price:

= (878.97 - 1,000) / 1,000 * 100%

= -12.1%

A company has already incurred $7,200 of costs in producing 6,000 units of Product XY. Product XY can be sold as is for $31 per unit. Instead, the company could incur further processing costs of $10 per unit and sell the resulting product for $35 per unit. Should the company sell Product XY as is or process it further

Answers

Answer: Sell as is or lose $36,000

Explanation:

If the company sells as is, they could sell at a price of $31 per unit.

If they process further and sell at $35, they would incur a cost of $10 per unit which leaves them with profit of:

= 35 - 10

= $25

This is lower than the selling price if they sell as is and will therefore give a loss of:

= (31 - 25) * 6,000 units

=- $36,000

Company should sell as is so as not to lose $36,000

Suppose you purchase a $1,000 TIPS on January 1, 2021. The bond carries a fixed coupon of 1 percent. Over the first two years, semiannual inflation is 4 percent, 1 percent, 2 percent, and 3 percent, respectively. For each six-month period, calculate the accrued principal and coupon payment.

Answers

Answer:

FOR THE FIRST SIX-MONTH PERIOD

Accrued principal = $1,040

Coupon payment = $5.20

FOR THE SECOND SIX-MONTH PERIOD

Accrued principal = $1,050.40

Coupon payment = $5.25

FOR THE THIRD SIX-MONTH PERIOD

Accrued principal = $1,071.41

Coupon payment = $5.36

FOR THE FOURTH SIX-MONTH PERIOD

Accrued principal = $1,103.55

Coupon payment = $5.52

Explanation:

These can be calculated using the following formulae:

Accrued principal = Amount or previous accrued principal * (100% + inflation rate) ...........(1)

Coupon payment = Accrued principal * (Fixed coupon rate * (6 months / 12 months))............(2)

Therefore, we have:

FOR THE FIRST SIX-MONTH PERIOD

Accrued principal = $1,000 * (100% + 4%) = $1,040

Coupon payment = $1,040 * (1% * (6 / 12)) = $5.20

FOR THE SECOND SIX-MONTH PERIOD

Accrued principal = $1,040 * (100% + 1%) = $1,050.40

Coupon payment = $1,050.40 * (1% * (6 / 12)) = $5.25

FOR THE THIRD SIX-MONTH PERIOD

Accrued principal = $1,050.40 * (100% + 2%) = $1,071.41

Coupon payment = $1,071.41 * (1% * (6 / 12)) = $5.36

FOR THE FOURTH SIX-MONTH PERIOD

Accrued principal = $1,071.41 * (100% + 3%) = $1,103.55

Coupon payment = $1,103.55  * (1% * (6 / 12)) = $5.52

You plan to save $6,500 per year for the next 8 years. After the last deposit, you will keep the money in the account for 6 more years. The account will earn an interest rate of 6.8 percent. How much will there be in the account 14 years from today

Answers

Answer:

$98,254.57

Explanation:

Value after 8 years

Future Value of Annuity = P * ((1 + r)^n - 1 ) / r

Future Value of Annuity = 6500 * ((1 + 6.8%)^8 - 1) / (6.8%)

Future Value of Annuity = 6500 * [(1.69266113113-1) / 0.068]

Future Value of Annuity = 6500 * 10.18619

Future Value of Annuity = $66,210.24

Value after 14 years

FV = PV * (1 + r )^n

FV = 66210.26*(1+ 6.8%)^6

FV = 66210.26 * 1.483978

FV = $98,254.57

So, the amount that will be there in the account 14 years from today is $98,254.57.

January 10,000 $17,000

February 8,000 13,500

March 9,000 14,400

April 7,000 12,500

To calculate the variable cost per unit and the total fixed cost, we need to use the following formula:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (17,000 - 12,500) / (10,000 - 7,000)

Variable cost per unit= $1.5

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 17,000 - (1.5*10,000)

Fixed costs= $2,000

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 12,500 - (1.5*7,000)

Fixed costs= $2,000

Job W, which is still in process at year-end, shows charges of $4,300 for direct materials and $5,400 for direct labor.
Required:
Calculate the overhead cost be added to Job W at year-end.

Answers

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $3,672

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Job V:

DM= $6,300

DL= $8,600

Overhead= $5,848

Job W:

DM= $4,300

DL= $5,400

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate based on Job V:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

5,848 = Estimated manufacturing overhead rate*8,600

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 5,848/8,600

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $0.68

Now, the allocated overhead to Job W:

Allocated MOH= 0.68*5,400

Allocated MOH= $3,672

You are considering an investment project with an internal rate of return of 8.7 percent, a net present value of $393, and a payback period of 2.44 years. Which one of the following is correct given this information?
A. The discount rate used to compute the net present value is equal to the Internal rate of return.
B. The discounted payback period will be less than 2.44 years.
C. The required payback period must be greater than 2.44 years.
D. The discount rate used in computing the net present value was less than 8.7 percent.
E. This project should be rejected based on the net present value.

Answers

Answer:

Hence the correct option is d) The discount rate used in computing the net present value was less than 8.7 percent.

Explanation:  

As the discount rate increases, the present value decreases, and also at IRR the present value is zero, thus the answer is:-

d) The discount rate used in computing the net present value was less than 8.7 percent

Answer:

D). The discount rate used in computing the net present value was less than 8.7 percent.

Explanation:

'Net Present Value' is described as the 'difference that exists between existing values of cash inflows, as well as, cash outflows for a particular time period.' This assists in evaluating the profitability of an investment and make worthy decisions regarding investment.

As per the details provided, the discount rate considered for estimating the Net Present Value of the investment had been lesser than 8.7% which shows that the Net Present Value in positive i.e. $ 393. However, the investment project is not beneficial at all rather it may cause losses because the required return rate is 9.5% which is actually lesser and therefore, the project would prove incompetent and it must be rejected at once. Thus, option D is the correct answer.

If the State of California raised the average state consumer sales tax rate from 9.25 percent to 15 percent, then this sales tax will have its heavist impact on and raise the marginal cost curves for California businesses.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer: False

Explanation:

Consumer sales tax is not charged to businesses but rather to the customers through a business. The tax would therefore increase the prices of goods and services for consumers and not the businesses.

The businesses would therefore not see their marginal cost curves increase. They could still be affected however, by Californians demanding less goods and services because it is now more expensive for them on account of the new sales tax.

The production possibilities model illustrates an inverse relationship between two goods or services because Group of answer choices of diminishing returns. some goods are more difficult to produce that others. the opportunity cost of producing more of something will rise. production of different types will compete for limited resources.

Answers

Answer:

production of different types will compete for limited resources.

Explanation:

The production possibilities curve (PPC) is also known as the production possibilities frontier (PPF) and its a curve which illustrates the maximum (best) combinations of two products that can be produce in an economy if they both depend on these factors;

1. Technology is fixed.

2. Resources are fixed.

Hence, the production possibilities curve represents maximum combinations of products available with fixed resources and technology.

Additionally, the production possibilities curve influences the choice of production used by companies and as such it helps to make the best decision regarding the optimum product mix for a company.

Basically, the production possibilities model illustrates an inverse relationship between two goods or services (an increase in the production of one good or service results in a decrease in the production of another and vice-versa) because production of different types will compete for limited resources.

This ultimately implies that the manufacturing or production of one item (product) is likely to rise or increase provided the production of the other item (product) falls or decreases.

Answers

Answer:

Overhead rate = $20.74

Explanation:

Below is the given values:

Given the direct labor hours = 8200

Direct labor dollars = $64200

Factory overhead costs  =$170100

Use below formula to find the overhead rate.

overhead rate = Overhead cost / Direct labor hours

Now plug the values in formula:

Overhead rate = 170100 / 8200

Overhead rate = $20.74

(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) Your Company has a truck that needs a new engine that would cost $35,000. This will extend the useful life of the truck by 5 years. As an alternative, Your Company could buy a brand new truck for $120,000. The new truck would also last 5 years. The annual operating expenses of the old truck are $8,500. The annual operating expenses of the new truck will only be $5,000. The old truck has a salvage value of $12,000 now and $3,500 in 5 years. The new truck is expected to have a $10,000 salvage value in 5 years. Your Company discount rate is 6%. What is the net present value of the decision to buy the new truck instead of repairing the old truck

Answers

Answer:

Hence the net cost to the company is 68,160.

NPV to buy a new truck instead of repairing  

NPV = -65390

Explanation:

Step 1:-

P.V. of Old Truck Repaired  

Given  

Discount rate = 6%  

New engine = 35000  

Life = 5 years  

Annual operating expenses = 8500  

Salvage (after 5 years)= 3500

Step 2:-  

Repair  

Net Cost to company  = Cost + Annual operating expenses x P.V. Annuity              

                                               Factor (6%, 5) - Salvage value x P.V. Intrinsic  

                                              Factor (6%, 5)  

 P.V.A.F. (6%, 5)= [tex]\sum_{5}^{1}1 / (1.06)^{n} = 4.21[/tex]  

 n = 4.21

 P.V.I.F. (6%, 5) = [tex]1/ (1.06)^{5} =0.75[/tex]

 

Net Cost to company:  = 35000 + 8500 x 4.21 - 3500 x 0.75  

= 35000 + 35785 - 2625  

= 68,160

P.V. of New truck purchased  

New Truck  

Cost = 120000  

Discount rate = 6%  

Life = 5 years  

Annual operating expenses = 5000  

Salvage (after 5 years)= 10000  

Net Cost to company:  = Cost + Annual operating expenses x P.V. Annuity

                                           Factor (6%, 5) - Salvage value x P.V. Intrinsic  

                                                                                            Factor (6%, 5)  

= 120000 + 5000 x 4.21 - 10000 x 0.75  

= 120000 + 21050 - 7500  

= 133550

NPV to buy a new truck instead of repairing  

NPV = Net cost of repairing - Net cost of new truck  

= 68160 - 133550  

= -65390

A property title search firm is contemplating using online software to increase the productivity of the researcher performing the search. Currently, an average of 64 minutes is needed to do a title search. The researcher cost is $1.70 per minute. Clients are charged a fee of $410. Company A’s software would reduce the average search time by 20 minutes, at a cost of $3.50 per search. Company B’s software would reduce the average search time by 21 minutes at a cost of $5.50 per search.
a. Calculate the productivity in terms of revenue per dollar of input.
b. Which option would have the highest productivity in terms of revenue per dollar of input?
a) Company A
b) Company B
c) Current

Answers

Answer:

a. Productivity in terms of revenue per dollar input:

Cost = Average time taken * Cost per minute + additional cost per search

Current cost = 64 * 1.70 = $108.80

Company A cost = (64 - 20 mins) * 1.70 + 3.50 = $78.30

Company B cost = (64 - 21) * 1.70 + 5.50 = $78.60

Productivity = Client fee / Cost

Current productivity

= 410 / 108.80

= $3.77

Company A

= 410 / 78.30

= $5.24

Company B

= 410 / 78.60

= $5.22

b. Company A is best.
