A company purchased 10 units for $5 on January 3. It purchased 10 units for $7 each on February 28. It sold 10 units on March 1. If the company uses the last in, first out (LIFO) inventory costing method, what is the dollar amount for ending inventory on the December 31 balance sheet, assuming that the company uses a perpetual inventory system

Answers

Answer:

The dollar amount for ending inventory using the last-in-first-out method of inventory valuation is $50

Explanation:

Using LIFO,last-in-first-out  method of inventory valuation,items received last into the store are deemed to be sold first, hence the sales of 10 units on March 1 was the inventory purchased on February 28, leaving the items of inventory purchased on January 3 as closing inventory

value of closing inventory using LIFO=10*$5=$50

The 6.3 percent, semi-annual coupon bonds of PE Engineers mature in 13 years and have a price quote of 99.2. These bonds have a current yield of ________ percent, a yield to maturity of ________ percent, and an effective annual yield of ________ percent.

Answers

Answer:

Current yield is 6.35%

YTM is 6.40%

Effective annual yield is 6.50%

Explanation:

Current yield =coupon amount/price=6.3%*$1000/$1000*99.2%=6.35%

Yield to maturity can be computed using excel rate formula as below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon payments of the bond which is 13*2

pmt is the annual coupon=6.3%*$1000=$63/2=$31.5

pv is the current price=99.2%*$1000=$992

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(13*2,31.5,-992,1000)=3.20%

Semiannual yield =3.20%

annual yield=3.20%*2=6.40%

effective annual yield=(1+YTM/2)^2-1

effective annual yield=(1+6.40%/2)^2-1=6.50%

Prince Electronics, a manufacturer of consumer electronic goods, has five distribution centers in different regions of the country. For one of its products, a highspeed modem priced at $330 per unit, the average weekly demand at each distribution center is 70 units. Average shipment size to each distribution center is 350 units, and average lead time for delivery is 2 weeks. Each distribution center carries 2 weeks' supply as safety stock but holds no anticipatory inventory.a. On average, how many dollars of pipeline inventory will be in transit to each distribution center?b. How much total inventory (cycle, safety, and pipeline) does Prince hold for all five distribution centers?

Answers

Answer:

a. $231,000

b. 2,450 units

Explanation:

a. On average, how many dollars of pipeline inventory will be in transit to each distribution center?

This is the inventory level that has to be in transit every 2 weeks in order to meet average demand. This can be calculated as follows:

Pipeline inventory = Number of distribution centers * Price per unit * Average weekly demand * Average delivery lead time = 5 * $330 * 70 * 2 = $231,000.

Therefore, the dollars of pipeline inventory that will be in transit to each distribution center is $231,000.

b. How much total inventory (cycle, safety, and pipeline) does Prince hold for all five distribution centers?

Inventory in hand = Average shipment size *  Number of distribution centers = 350 * 5 = 1,750

Safety inventory = Number of distribution centers * Average weekly demand * Average delivery lead time = 5 * 70 * 2 = 700

Note: Safety inventory is the inventory held in the store for the purpose of meeting rise in demand or for overcoming delay in supply.

Inventory cycle = Inventory in hand - safety inventory = 1,750 - 700 = 1,050

Pipeline inventory = Number of distribution centers * Average weekly demand * Average delivery lead time = 5 * 70 * 2 = 700

Total inventory held = Inventory cycle + Safety inventory + Pipeline inventory = 1,050 + 700 + 700 = 2,450 units.

Therefore, the total inventory (cycle, safety, and pipeline) Prince holds for all five distribution centers is 2,450 units.

Deere is a global manufacturer and distributor of agricultural, construction, and forestry equipment. Suppose it reported the following information in its 2017 annual report. (In millions)
2017 2016 Inventories (LIFO) $2,267 $2,999
Current asset 32,910
Current liabilities 11,711
LIFO reserve 1,389
Cost of goods sold 15,661
Compute Deere inventory turnover for 2017 ratio.

Answers

Answer:

5.95

Explanation:

Deere inventory turnover for 2017 ratio is:

Formula for Inventory Turnover Ratio= Cost of Goods sold / Average Inventory

Where Average Inventory = (Previous Inventory + Current Inventory) / 2

= ($2,267 + $2,999) / 2

=$5,266 / 2

=$2,633

Average Inventory = $2,633

Therefore, Inventory Turnover Ratio =  $15,661 / $2,633 = 5.9479 = 5.95

Deere Inventory Turnover for 2017 Ratio is  5.95.

Chobani's equipment runs for 10 hours and must be idle for 4 hours while being cleaned. Its plants operate day and night all week long. What are the implications for the company's purchasing, inventory control, scheduling and quality control functions. Your answer should be detailed and well thought out.

Answers

Answer:

For the company's purchasing ;leasing  the machine for the active period i.e 10 hours a day would be cheaper because the cost of cleaning and maintenance would be eliminated

For the company's inventory control; if the company leases the equipment that would reduce it's setup cost keeping its inventory low

For the company's scheduling; scheduling deals with completing a job within a given time and it is very essential to utilize the productive time

For the company's quality control functions; the company has to ensure that in as much as it has to meet its production schedule the quality of the products should be paramount

Explanation:

Running time = 10 hours. Idle time = 4 hours

The implications of the machine:

For the company's purchasing ; since the equipment has to be used everyday and after the 10 hours it will run, it has to be ideal for 4 hours for it to be cleaned and maintained every day. therefore the purchasing department of the company will have to sort for an alternative equipment which would be less expensive and would have less idle time during cleaning and maintenance. but  if this alternative is more expensive, then leasing  the machine for the active period i.e 10 hours a day would be cheaper because the cost of cleaning and maintenance would be eliminated

For the company's inventory control : inventory for every company is the stock of the company that remains unsold and every company should aim to keep this as low as possible and one way is by reducing setup costs and safety cost. if the company leases the equipment that would reduce it's setup cost keeping its inventory low

For the company's scheduling : scheduling deals with completing a job within a given time and it is very essential to utilize the productive time i.e 10 hours  of the equipment in order to avoid unwanted direct and indirect cost.

For the company's quality control functions: As the equipment runs for 10 hours day and night in other to meet up with the production and scheduling the quality of the products might be adversely affected hence the company has to ensure that in as much as it has to meet its production schedule the quality of the products should be paramount

Answers

Answer:  a physical inventory count should be taken at least annually

Explanation: That an inventory is perpetual does not discount the need for taking physical inventory at least once a year. This is important because it helps in the identification of shrinkage or shortages and to also test the accuracy of the perpetual records under use. Now, a perpetual inventory is a kind of inventory that tracks and records continuously, items as they are added to or subtracted from the inventory thus keeping it updated and aids in keeping the track of the cost of goods bought and sold.

Due to the adoption of a just in time assembly line system, NWC is expected to decrease. Inventory is expected to decrease from $254600 to $143072 while accounts payable will also decrease by $26648. What is the cash flow impact for the change in net working capital to be included in the initial investment

$84,880

Explanation:

Since there is a decrease in inventory from $254,600 to $143,072 i.e $111,528 and the account payable is also decreased by $26,648

So, there is an increase in cash flow due to the change in net working capital of

= Decrease in inventory - decrease in account payable

=  $111,528 - $26,648

= $84,880

Hence, the cash flow impact is of $84,880 i.e to be included in the initial investment

A worker can choose high (H) or low (L) effort. If the worker chooses high effort, she incurs a personal cost of 1. In this case, output is high with probability one. If the worker chooses low effort, she incurs a personal cost of 0. In this case, output is low with probability one. When output is high, the firm receives revenue of O and zero otherwise. Can the same outcome be achieved when effort is unobservable?
A. Yes, because the firm would find it wothwhile to pay the bonus for high effort.
B. No, because for any bonus offered, the worker will claim to have exerted high effort.
C. No, because the firm has to pay the bonus based on output.
D. Yes, because effort can be perfectly inferred from output, which is observable.

Answers

Answer:

B. No, because for any bonus offered, the worker will claim to have exerted high effort.

Explanation:

This question required some basic reasoning about how human beings function. We all like to receive things from others, and if they are free (or without cost or effort) the more we like them. And we all believe that good things should happen to us and that we are entitled to receive good things. That is the basic reason why jealousy and envy exist.

Now, back to our case. If the company simply hands out bonuses to everyone regardless of their personal effort, every single worker will be convinced that they really deserve the bonus. Even if the worker didn't even try to do his best or didn't do anything right at all, he/she will be convinced that they deserve the bonus. Each and every single worker will claim that the reason they are receiving the bonus is due to their work. Everyone will say that they worked hard and their work was good.

Imagine this happened at school. One day, the teacher decides to give As to half the class in alphabetical order (or any other random way). The half that got the As will believe that they deserved the As while the other half will be very unhappy. If everyone got As, then everyone will be convinced that thy got As because they deserved them.

An all-equity business has 100 million shares outstanding selling for $20 a share. Management believes that interest rates are unreasonably low and decides to execute a leveraged recapitalization (a recap). It will raise $1 billion in debt and repurchase 50 million shares. a. What is the market value of the firm prior to the recap? What is the market value of equity? b. Assuming the Irrelevance Proposition holds, what is the market value of the firm after the recap? What is the market value of equity? c. Do equity shareholders appear to have gained or lost as a result of the recap? Please explain. d. Assume now that the recap increases total firm cash flows, which adds $100 million to the value of the firm. Now what is the market value of the firm? What is the market value of equity? e. Do equity shareholders appear to have gained or lost as a result of the recap in this revised scenario?

Answers

Answer:

a) Market Value = $100 million × $20 = $2,000 million = $2 billion

Market value of equity would remain same = $2 billion

b) Market value would remain same after recap. Only market capitalization would reduce to half.

Market value of equity = 1 billion

c) Buying back shares increases the stock price which demonstrates the faith of the company in its work. But creditors have capital gains.

d) After recap and cash flow firm total value has increased to $2 billion + $100 Million = $2.1 billion and market value of equity has increased from $20 to $22 . ($1000 + $100)/50 = $22.

=> fraction of the portfolio that should be allocated to T-bills = 0.4482 = 44.82%.

=> fraction to equity = 0.5518 = 55.18%.

Explanation:

So, in this question or problem we are given the following parameters or data or information which are; that the utility function is U = E(r) – 0.5 × Aσ2 and the risk-aversion coefficient is A = 4.4.

The fraction of the portfolio that should be allocated to T-bills and its equivalent fraction to equity can be calculated by using the formula below;

The first step is to determine or Calculate the value of fraction to equity.

Hence, the fraction to equity = risk premium/(market standard deviation)^2 - risk aversion.

= 8.10% ÷ [(20.48%)^2 × 3.5 = 0.5518.

Therefore, the value for fraction of the portfolio that should be allocated to T-bills = 1 - fraction to equity = 1 - 0.5518 =0.4482 .

Quality Jewelers uses the perpetual inventory system. On April 2, Quality sold merchandise for $50,000 to a customer on account with terms of 3/15, n/30. The allowances and returns on this sale amounted to $3,000 and $9,000, respectively. The cost of goods sold was $20,000. On April 20, Quality received payment from the customer. Calculate the amount of gross profit.

Answers

Answer:

The Gross profit is $18,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amount of gross profit we would have to make the following calculation:

Gross Profit = Sale - Allowance - Sales Returns - Discount - Cost of Goods Sold

Sale=$50,000

Allowance=$3,000

Sales Returns=$9,000

Cost of Goods Sold =$20,000

Discount. As the payment is done after the expiry of 15 days is discount is 0

Gross Profit= $50,000 - $3,000 - $9,000 - 0 - $20,000

Gross Profit= $18,000

The Gross profit is $18,000

Lipman Auto Parts, a family-owned auto parts store, began January with $10,300.00 in cash. Management forecasts that collections from credit customers will be $11,400.00 in January and $14,800.00 in February. The store is scheduled to receive $5,000.00 in cash on a business note receivable in January. Projected cash payments include inventory purchases ($13,000.00 in January and $13,600.00 in February) and operating expenses ($2,700.00 each month). Lipman Auto Parts’ bank requires a $10,000.00 minimum balance in the store’s checking account. At the end of any month when the account balance dips below $10,000.00, the bank automatically extends credit to the store in multiples of $1,000.00. Lipman Auto Parts borrows as little as possible and pays back loans in quarterly installments of $2,000.00, plus 4 percent interest on the entire unpaid principal. The first payment occurs three months after the loan.

you work at an electronYou work at a local electronics store, Electronics Warehouse. While you are working you spot a customer who appears to place something into their backpack (which you think is an item they haven't paid for). Before they exit the store you yell "STOP THAT THIEF" and another employee tackles the customer at the exit. When the customer is tackled he injures his knee and is spotted by his current boss. You and the employee escort the customer back to the security office and rummage through his backpack, but unfortunately you don't find any evidence that something was stolen, so you release the customer and apologize for the mix-up. The next day the customer returns to his job and is fired for being "a thief" by his boss who witnessed the events at the electronics store the day before. a. Explain in detail what tort theories the customer can sue the Electronics Warehouse. Would he be successful? b. Can you or the other employee be sued for a tort? If so, what tort(s)? c. What defenses would the Electronics Warehouse raise? Would they be successful?

Answers

Answer: The answers are provided below

Explanation:

a. Yes, the customer can sue the Electronics warehouse. The customer was wrongly accused of stealing and was called a thief in front of everyone present in the store. In this case, the customer has lost his reputation.

The customer can be successful because he was called a thief which he wasn't. He got injured due to this and also lost his job. This is a serious misconduct and offense and the customer can be successful if he sue the Electronics company.

b. Yes, the employee and I can be sued for tort as we called him a thief without investigation and injured him. This has led to a big harm for the customer who lost his job due to this issue. With the illegal approach, both the employee and the electronic store can face the legal proceedings asnthey can be sued for major loss for the customer.

c. The Electronic Warehouse can raise the defense that they have apologized to the customer and they can also say that they took the measure to protect their stores from theft.

No, they can't be successful as they easily stop the customer without tackling him and making a mockery of him by calling him a thief. He also lost his job due to this. Hence, this is a serious issue that has created emotional and financial damage for the customer.

The multiple choices are:

a. $200 Million

b. $50 Million

c. $1.4 Billion

d. $100 Million

The correct option is A,$200 million

Explanation:

The increase in cash recorded from the statement of cash flows prepared in the year plus the opening balance of cash at the beginning of the year gives the cash balance at the end of the year shown below:

Increase in cash in the year=cash flow from operations+cash flow from financing activities-cash flow used on investing activities

increase in cash in the year=$325+($500-$100)-$600=$125  million

cash at the end of the year=$125 +$75=$200 million

You own a farm, you hire labor and capital to produce apples. The marginal product of the last unit of labor input is 15 and the marginal product of the last unit of capital input is 45. The market wage for labor is $8. If you are using the optimal combination of inputs, then the price of capital is

Answers

Answer:

$24

Explanation:

We can say the Optimal combination of inputs can be expressed as the ratio of marginal productivity of labor to the marginal productivity of capital is equal to the ratio of price of labor(wage) to the price of capital(RENT).

Lets denote:

marginal productivity of labor = MPL

marginal productivity of capital = MPC  

Wage= W

Rent= R

Then the formula will be

[tex]\frac{MPL}{MPC}=\frac{W}{R}[/tex]

Workings:

Lets put in the values in the formula

[tex]\frac{15}{45} = \frac{8}{R}[/tex]

We have to find out R(Rent)

R= 8x3

R= $24

Based upon the preceding data, would you expect the inventory to be higher or lower using the last-in, first-out method?

Answers

Answer:

a) UNDER FIFO

November 1 Inventory 120 units at $39

November 10 Sale 90 units

COGS = 90 X $39 = $3,510remaining inventory = 30 x $39 = $1,170

November 15 Purchase 140 units at $40

November 20 Sale 110 units

COGS = (30 x $39) + (80 x $40) = $1,170 + $3,200 = $4,370remaining inventory = 60 x $40 = $2,400

November 24 Sale 45 units

COGS = 45 x $40 = $1,800remaining inventory = 15 x $40 = $600

November 30 Purchase 160 units at $43

remaining inventory = $600 + (160 x $43) = $7,480

b. UNDER LIFO

November 1 Inventory 120 units at $39

November 10 Sale 90 units

COGS = 90 X $39 = $3,510remaining inventory = 30 x $39 = $1,170

November 15 Purchase 140 units at $40

November 20 Sale 110 units

COGS = 110 x $40 = $4,400 remaining inventory = (30 x $40) + (30 x $39)  = $2,370

November 24 Sale 45 units

COGS = (30 x $40) + (15 x $39) = $1,785remaining inventory = 15 x $39 = $585

November 30 Purchase 160 units at $43

remaining inventory = $585 + (160 x $43) = $7,465

Under LIFO, the ending inventory is lower than under FIFO.

"First in first out" or FIFO is a method of inventory evaluation by which the process of goods buying and selling are assumed as having same chronological order.

FIFO

As per the question, if units are in inventory at two different costs, than the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), and Inventory will be different, as per the given information:

⇒November 1, Inventory 120 units at $39

  November 10, Sale 90 units

  Cost of Goods Sold = 90 X $39 = $3,510

  Remaining inventory = (120-90) x $39 = $1,170

⇒ November 15, Purchase 140 units at $40

  November 20, Sale 110 units

  Cost of Goods Sold  = (30 x $39) + (80 x $40) = $1,170 + $3,200 = $4,370

Remaining inventory = 60 x $40 = $2,400

⇒ November 24, Sale 45 units

COGS = 45 x $40 = $1,800

Remaining inventory = 15 x $40 = $600

⇒November 30, Purchase 160 units at $43

  Remaining inventory = $600 + (160 x $43) = $7,480

B. Under Last in, First Out (LIFO)

⇒November 1, Inventory 120 units at $39

November 10, Sale 90 units

COGS = 90 × $39 = $3,510

Remaining inventory = 30 x $39 = $1,170

⇒November 15, Purchase 140 units at $40

November 20, Sale 110 units

COGS = 110 x $40 = $4,400

Remaining inventory = (30 x $40) + (30 x $39)  = $2,370

⇒November 24, Sale 45 units

COGS = (30 x $40) + (15 x $39) = $1,785

Remaining inventory = 15 x $39 = $585

November 30, Purchase 160 units at $43

Remaining inventory = $585 + (160 x $43) = $7,465

Hence, the results shows that the Inventory is LOWER when used Last-in, First out Method.
