ZeroSun Pictures is a Denver-based video production start-up agency. Imagine the founders are currently trying to decide between two cost structures, one that has a greater proportion of fixed costs (e.g., proprietary equipment), the other that is more heavily weighted to variable costs (e.g., leased equipment). Estimated revenue and cost data for each alternative is as follows:


Alternative #1 Alternative #2
Selling price per unit $100 $100
Variable cost per unit $85 $80
Fixed cost per year $40,000 $45,000

a. Under Alternative #1, what is the amount of revenues that would allow the company to breakeven?
b. What sales volume, in units, is needed for the total costs in each structure alternative to be the same?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Alternative #1 Alternative #2

Selling price per unit $100 $100

Variable cost per unit $85 $80

Fixed cost per year $40,000 $45,000

To calculate the break-even point in sales, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 40,000 / [(100 - 85) / 100]

Break-even point (dollars)= $266,666.67

Now, we can determine the sales volume for the two options:

Alternative 1:

Total cost= 40,000 + 85x

Alternative 2:

Total cost= 45,000 + 80x

x= number of units

40,000 + 85x = 45,000 + 80x

5x = 5,000

x= 1,000 units

The indifference point is 1,000 units.

Prove:

Total cost= 40,000 + 85*1,000= $125,000

Total cost= 45,000 + 80*1,000= $125,000

The demand for wooden pencils is very responsive to a change in price. That is, the demand for these pencils is highly elastic. Suppose that workers in this industry are successful in negotiating a higher wage from management. As a result:______
A. The price and quantity of pencils purchased will fall, and gross revenues will rise.
B. Price and quantity purchased will rise, and gross revenues will fall.
C. Price will fall, quantity purchased will rise, and gross revenues will rise.
D. Price will rise, quantity purchased will fall, and gross revenues will fall.

Answers

Answer:

D. Price will rise, quantity purchased will fall, and gross revenues will fall.

Explanation:

It will lead to a higher price of the good as the management has to take into consideration the amount to wages to be paid to the workers, thus increasing the price of the goods. This will result to a lower demand at a higher price  because the price increases and competitions will take advantage of the situation and that will also reduce the revenue of the firm.

The opportunity cost of an action is always equal to: multiple choice the things you could have done instead of the action you chose to undertake. the time you give up to undertake the action. the money you give up to undertake the action. the next-best alternative for the resources used to undertake the action.

Answers

Answer:

the next-best alternative for the resources used to undertake the action.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.

Simply stated, it is the cost of not enjoying the benefits, profits or value associated with the alternative forgone or best alternative choice available.

For instance, if you decide to invest resources such as money in a food business (restaurant), your opportunity cost would be the profits you could have earned if you had invest the same amount of resources in a salon business or any other business as the case may be.

Hence, the opportunity cost of an action is always equal to the next-best alternative for the resources used to undertake the action.

A pension fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The first is a stock fund, the second is a long-term government and corporate bond fund, and the third is a T-bill money market fund that yields a sure rate of 4.1%. The probability distributions of the risky funds are: Expected Return Standard Deviation Stock fund (S) 11 % 33 % Bond fund (B) 8 % 25 % The correlation between the fund returns is .1560. Suppose now that your portfolio must yield an expected return of 9% and be efficient, that is, on the best feasible CAL. a. What is the standard deviation of your portfolio

Answers

Answer:

standard deviation of your portfolio = 21.35%

Explanation:

Without mincing words, let's dive straight into the solution to this particular question. The following parameters are given in  the question and they are:

The expected Return Standard Deviation Stock fund (S) = 11 % with standard deviation of 33%[=0.33] and the expected Return Standard Deviation Stock fund is 8% with standard deviation of 25 %[=0.25]. Also, it is given that the correlation between the fund returns = .1560.

STEP ONE: Determine the proportion of stock in minimum risky portfolio.

Therefore, the proportion of stock in minimum risky portfolio = [( 0.25)² - ( 0.33 × 0.25 ×.1560)] ÷ [ (0.33²) + (0.25²) - ( 2 × 0.33 × 0.25 × 0.156)] = 34.07%[=0.3407].

STEP TWO: Determine the proportion of bond fund in minimum risky portfolio.

The proportion of bond fund in minimum risky portfolio = 1 - 0.3407 = 0.6593 = 65.93.

STEP THREE: Determine the expected return of minimum risky portfolio.

The expected return of minimum risky portfolio = 0.3407 × 0.11 + 0.6593 × 0.08 = 0.0902= 9.02%.  

STEP FOUR: Determine the standard deviation of your portfolio.

The standard deviation of your portfolio = [(0.6593²) × (0.25²) × (0.3407²) × (0.33²) + ( 2 × 0.6593 × 0.340 × 0.33 × 0.25 × 0.156)]^0.5 = 0.2135 = 21.35%

Suppose the price of movie tickets changes. The price change leads to a 10 percent decrease in the quantity demanded of movie tickets. This causes the total revenue from movie tickets to increase by 5 percent. Is the demand for movie tickets elastic, inelastic, or unit-elastic

Answers

Answer:

inelastic

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.  

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.  

Demand is inelastic because the change in total revenue is less than the change in price.

elasticity of demand = 5/10 = 0.5

Elasticity of demand is less than 1

RKI Instruments borrowed $4,100,000 from a private equity firm for expansion of its facility for manufacturing carbon monoxide monitors. The company repaid the loan after 1 year with a single payment of $5,325,000. What was the interest rate on the loan

Answers

Answer:

29.88%(30% when rounded to the nearest whole percentage)

Explanation:

The amount borrowed was the present value of the loan while the amount repaid was the future value of the loan, hence, considering the relationship between the present value and the future value, we can determine the interest rate on the loan as shown thus:

FV=PV*(1+r)^n

FV=future value=the repayment=$5,325,000

PV=present value=loan amount= $4,100,000

r=rate of interest=the unknown

n=the duration of the loan=1 year

$5,325,000= $4,100,000*(1+r)^1

$5,325,000/$4,100,000=1+r

r=($5,325,000/$4,100,000)-1

r=1.298780488 -1

r=29.88%

Calculate the present value PV of an investment that will be worth $1,000 at the stated interest rate after the stated amount of time. HINT [See Quick Example 4.] (Round your answer to the nearest cent.) 15 years, at 3% per year, compounded annually

Answers

Answer:

$641.86

Explanation:

Future value = $1,000

Years = 15

Rate = 3%

The present value = FV*1/(1+i)^n

The present value = 1,000*1/(1+0.03)^15

The present value = 1,000*1/(1.03)^15

The present value = 1,000*1/1.5579674166

The present value = 1,000*0.6418619473970326

The present value = 641.8619473970326

The present value = $641.86

The present value of the investment is $641.86.

The present value of an investment is the value of the investment today. The present value can be determined by discounting the future value using the stated interest rate.

Present value = [tex]\frac{FV}{(1 + r)^{t} }[/tex]

FV = future value = $1000 r = interest rate = 3%t = time = 15

[tex]\frac{1000}{(1.03)^{15} }[/tex] = $641.86

Answers

Answer:

$28.96%

Explanation:

Given the above information, we would calculate first the total variable cost

Total variable cost = Variable manufacturing selling expense + Variable selling and administrative expense

= $942,000 + $358,000

= $1,300,000

The next is to compute the contribution margin

Contribution margin = Sales - Total variable cost

= $1,830,000 - $1,300,000

= $530,000

Therefore,

Contribution margin ratio = (Contribution margin / Sales) × 100

= ($530,000 / $1,830,000) × 100

= 28.96%

Let's examine the market for iPads. Assume iPads are a normal good, Microsoft Surfaces are a substitute, and Apple Pencils are a complement. If the price of silicon (a key component of iPads) increases, what would happen to Supply or Demand for iPads (all else held equal)?

Answers

Answer:

the supply curve for iPads would shift to the left, decreasing the quantity supplied at every price level. This shift would result in a price increase. Since the price of iPads increased, the demand will decrease, also decreasing the demand of Apple Pencils.

Since Microsoft Surface are substitutes, when the price of iPads increase, the demand for Surface tablets will increase.

Assume the following capital structure: Preferred stock, 5%, $50 par value, 1,200 shares issued and outstanding with dividends in arrears for the three prior years. Common stock, $100 par value, 2,200 shares issued and outstanding. Total dividends declared and paid in current year were $52,000. How much of the current dividend will be paid to the preferred stockholders assuming the preferred stock is cumulative

Answers

Answer:

$12,000

Explanation:

The computation of the preferred dividend in the case when the preferred stock is cumulative is given below:

= Dividend percentage × par value of each share × number of shares issued × number of years

= 5% × $50 × 1,200 shares × 4 years

= $12,000

Hence, the preferred dividend in the case when the preferred stock is cumulative is $12,000

Therefore, the Future Value of $82,797 in 30 years with 16% interest rate =$7,108,112.26

Three years ago, Charles purchased a health policy from the QRS Company; he has purchased two additional contracts from the same insurer since. Each contract contains the Other Insurance With This Insurer Provision. What happens if Charles has a claim

Answers

Answer: a. Only one policy will pay, the premiums for the other contracts will be returned.

Explanation:

When there are multiple insurance contracts from the same insurer and these contracts have a ''Other Insurance With This Insurer'' provision, it means that in cases where the insured wants to claim, they can choose whichever of the policies they want and that one will pay out but they cannot pick them all.

The premiums paid on the other contracts/s will be returned to the insured because it represents excess coverage.

g The Nelson Company has $1,312,500 in current assets and $525,000 in current liabilities. Its initial inventory level is $385,000, and it will raise funds as additional notes payable and use them to increase inventory. How much can Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) increase without pushing its current ratio below 2.0

Answers

Answer:

$262,500

Explanation:

Current ratio = Current asset/Current liabilities

In line with the current ratio formula, to calculate the amount of short term debt increase, with the amount of current assets and current liabilities, we must add an amount such that the result 2.0

(1,312,500 + x) / (525,000 + x) = 2.0

Cross multiply

(1,312,500 + x) = 2.0 × (525,000 + x)

Open the brackets

1,312,500 + x = 1,050,000 + 2x

Collect like terms

1,312,500 - 1,050,000 = 2x - x

262,500 = x

It therefore means that the maximum that should be borrowed to buy inventory is $262,500

3. 1.3x + 1.2y [tex]\leq[/tex] 1500 For Finishing

c)

x [tex]\geq[/tex] 500

y [tex]\geq[/tex] 650

Explanation:

Data Given:

Contemporary Style Cabinets Sells For = $90

Farmhouse Style Cabinets Sell For = $85

Hours per process:

For Contemporary:

Time for Carpentry = 2.0

Time for Painting = 1.5

Time for Finishing = 1.3

Similarly,

for Farmhouse Cabinet style:

Time for Carpentry = 2.5

Time for Painting =  1.0

Time for Finishing = 1.2

Costing for Processes:

Carpentry = $15/hr

Painting = $12/hr

Finishing = $18/hr

Availability of hours in the week:

Carpentry = 3000 hours

Painting = 1500 hours

Finishing = 1500 hours

Orders for Cabinets in the week:

Contemporary Cabinets = 500 units/week

Farmhouse Style = 650 units/week  

Suppose,

x = number of contemporary style cabinets

y = number of Farmhouse cabinets

Step 1:

We need to calculate the total cost of the cabinets first.

Cost of Contemporary Style:

(2 x $15) + (1.5 x $12) + (1.3 x $18) = $71.4/cabinet

Similarly,

Cost of Farmhouse Style:

(2.5 x $15) + (1 x $12) + (1.2 x $18) = $71.1/cabinet

We know that the selling price of Contemporary and Farmhouse cabinets is $90 and $85 respectively. So, we can calculate the profit of both the cabinets.

For Contemporary Style:

Profit = ($90-$71.4) =$18.6

For Farmhouse Style:

Answers

Answer:

The land should be reported in the financial statement at $40,800

Explanation:

At the time the fixed asset is being recorded, it should be recorded at the purchase cost or historical price.

Since the land was purchased at $40,800 according to the question, also it is assessed for tax purpose at $27,900 and was valued at $48,900 by other appraisers including an offer of cash payment of $44,200.

Assume that you open a 100 share short position in Jiffy Inc. common stock at the bid-ask price of $32.00 - $32.50. When you close your position the bid-ask prices are $32.50 - $33.00. If you pay a commission rate of 0.5%, calculate your profit or loss on the investment position

Answers

Answer:

There is a net loss of $132.50

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the cash flows at the time of open the position and close the position.

Cash outflow

Cash flow from opening the position = Value of position + Commission

Where

Value of position = Numbers of shares - opening value per stock = 100 x 33 = $3,300

Commision = 100 x 33 x 0.5% = $16.50

Placing values in the formula

Cash flow from opening the position = $3,300 + $16.50 = $3,316.50

Cash inflow

Cash flow from Closing the position = Value of position - Commission

Where

Value of position = Numbers of shares - opening value per stock = 100 x 32 = $3,200

Commision = 100 x 32 x 0.5% = $16

Placing values in the formula

Cash flow from opening the position = $3,200 - $16 = $3,184

Now calculate the profit or loss on the position

Net profit / loss = Cashinflow - Cash outflow = $3,184 - $3,316.50

Net Loss = $132.50
