The Holmes Company's currently outstanding bonds have a 10% coupon and a 10% yield to maturity. Holmes believes it could issue new bonds at par that would provide a similar yield to maturity. If its marginal tax rate is 25%, what is Holmes' after-tax cost of debt

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7.5%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what is Holmes' after-tax cost of debt

Using this formula

After-tax cost of debt=YTM (1-Taxes)

Where,

YTM = 10%

Tax Rate = 25%

Let plug in the formula

After-tax cost of debt= 10%(1-25%)

After-tax cost of debt=10%(75%)

After-tax cost of debt=0.075*100

After-tax cost of debt=7.5%

Therefore Holmes' after-tax cost of debt is 7.5%

Baker Winery manufactures a fine wine in two departments, Fermenting and Bottling. In the Fermenting Department, grapes are aged in casks for a period of 30 days. In the Bottling Department, the wine is bottled and then sent to the finished goods warehouse. Labor and overhead are incurred uniformly through both processes. Materials are entered at the beginning of both processes. Cost and production data for the Fermenting Department for December 2020 are presented below: Cost data Beginning work in process inventory $37,000 ($30,000 of materials cost) Materials 390,000 Conversion costs 116,000 Total costs $543,000 Production data Beginning work in process (gallons) 5,000 (40%) Gallons started into production 79,000 Ending work in process (gallons) 8,000 (75%)
Instructions:
a) compute the equivalent units of production
b) Determine the unit production costs
c) Determine the costs to be assigned to units transferred out and ending work in process.

Answers

Answer:

a)   84,000 units  ( materials )

     82,000 units ( conversion )

b) $6.5

c)  $494,000 ( material )

   $494,000 ( conversion )

Explanation:

a) Calculate the equivalent unit of production

applying the weighted average method

for the units completed and transferred out

= 5000 + 79000 - 8000 = 76000 ( material ) , Conversion = 76000

For ending work in process

= 8000 ( material ) , conversion = 8000 * 75% = 6000

∴ equivalent units of production

= 76000 + 8000 = 84,000 units  ( materials )

and

= 76000 + 6000 = 82,000 units ( conversion )

B) calculate the unit production costs

Total cost incurred till date = beginning work in process + current period cost  

 = 30,000 + 390,000 = 420,000 ( material )

(conversion) = 123,000.

Equivalent units = 84,000 ( materials ) , 82,000 ( conversion )

cost per unit = 420,000 / 84000 ,   123000/ 82,000

                     = 5 , 1.5

Hence Total unit cost = $6.5 ( i.e. 1.5 + 5 )

C) cost to be assigned

76000 * 6.5 = $494,000 ( material )

76000 * 6.5 = $494,000 ( conversion )

When the existing spot rate exceeds the exercise price, a call option is ____, and a put option is ____. Group of answer choices out of the money; in the money out of the money; out of the money in the money; in the money in the money; out of the money

Answers

Answer:

in the money; out of the money.

Explanation:

Secondary market can be defined as a market where various investors sell and buy securities from other investors.

Some examples of secondary market around the world are New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NASDAQ, London Stock Exchange (LSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE).

On the other hand, the primary market refers to the market where these securities that are being sold are issued or created.

In trading and investment, a stock option can be defined as a contract that states that the buyer as the right to buy (call) or sell (put) an asset at a particular price at any time but necessarily obligational. Thus, it is strictly at the discretion of the buyer (investor).

Generally, in a long (buy) position, a buyer hopes that the price of stocks will rise because he or she will typically profit from a rise in price.

However, a short (buy) position, a buyer hopes that the price of stocks will fall because he or she will typically profit from a fall in price.

A spot rate is the cash or exchange rate placed on a contract in the stock exchange market.

When the existing spot rate exceeds the exercise price, a call option is in the money, and a put option is out of the money.

B. Accounts Receivable $770,000

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $32,200

Bad Debt Expense $25,200

C. $744,800

Explanation:

a. Calculation to Determine the amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts using this formula

Uncollectible accounts Adjusting entry= Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Credit balance on Allowance for doubtful accounts

Let plug in the formula

Uncollectible accounts Adjusting entry=$32,200 - $7,000

Uncollectible accounts Adjusting entry= $25,200

Therefore the amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts is $25,200

B. Based on the information given the adjusted balances of Accounts Receivable will be $770,000

Based on the information given the adjusted balances of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts will be $32,200

Bad Debt Expense = $32,200 - $7,000

Bad Debt Expense= $25,200

c. Calculation to Determine the net realizable value of accounts receivable

Using this formula

Net realizable value of accounts receivable = Accounts receivables - Bad debt

Let plug in the formula

Net realizable value of accounts receivable= $770,000 - $25,200

Net realizable value of accounts receivable=$744,800

Therefore Net realizable value of accounts receivable is $744,800

Use the following information to answer question. Madelyn owns a small pottery factory. She can make 1,000 pieces of pottery per year and sell them for $100 each. It costs Madelyn $20,000 for the raw materials to produce the 1,000 pieces of pottery. She has invested $100,000 in her factory and equipment: $50,000 from her savings and $50,000 borrowed at 10 percent (assume that she could have loaned her money out at 10 percent, too). Madelyn can work at a competing pottery factory for $40,000 per year.

Required:
The economic profit at madelyn's pottery factory is:_________

Answers

Answer:

$30,000

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Total number of pieces per year = 1,000

Selling price per piece = $100 per piece

So, Total revenue = $100 × 1,000 = $100,000

Raw material = $20,000

Investment = $100,000

So, interest on investment = 10% × $100,000 = $10,000

Opportunity cost = $40,000

So, we can calculate the economic profit by using following formula,

Economic profit = Total revenue - Raw material - interest on investment - Opportunity cost

By putting the value, we get

Economic profit = $100,000 - $20,000 - $10,000 - $40,000

= $30,000

Answers

Answer:

Annual Cash Dividends

a. = $347,645.10

b. = $145,450

c. = $317,200

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

1. $3.30 Cumulative Preferred Stock:

Authorized shares = 210,000

Issued shares =        146,000

Treasury shares =     40,653

Outstanding shares 105,347

Cash dividend = $347,645.10 ($3.30 * 105,347)

2. 5% Preferred Stock, $40 par value:

Authorized shares = 293,000

Issued shares =         165,000

Outstanding shares   72,725 * $40 = $2,909,000

Cash dividend = $145,450 ($2,909,000 * 5%)

3. 12.2% cumulative preferred, $100 stated value, $108 liquidating value:

Authorized shares =   81,000

Issued shares =         42,000

Outstanding shares  26,000 * $100 = $2,600,000

Cash dividend = $317,200 ($2,600,000 * 12.2%)

For 2019, sales were $413,000, cost of goods sold was $281,000, ending inventory was $149,000, ending accounts receivables were $48,000, and ending accounts payable were $36,000. What was the cash cycle for 2019 based on a 365-day year

Answers

Answer:

190.27 days

Explanation:

Average accounts receivable = (Ending accounts receivable 2018 + Ending accounts receivable 2019) / 2

Average accounts receivable = ($46,000 + $48,000)/2

Average accounts receivable = $47,000

Average accounts payable = (Ending accounts payable 2018 + Ending accounts payable 2019) / 2

Average accounts payable = ($38,000 + $36,000)/2

Average accounts payable = $37,000

Average inventory = (Ending inventory 2018 + Ending inventory 2019) / 2

Average inventory = ($154,000 + $149,000)/2

Average inventory = $151,500

Days sales outstanding = (Average accounts receivable*365 days)/Sales

Days sales outstanding = ($47,000*365 days)/$413,000

Days sales outstanding = $17,155,000/$413,000

Days sales outstanding = 41.54 days

Days payable outstanding = (Average accounts payable*365 days)/Cost of goods sold

Days payable outstanding = ($37,000*365 days)/$281,000

Days payable outstanding = $13,505,000/$281,000

Days payable outstanding = 48.06 days

Days inventory outstanding = (Average inventory*365 days)/Cost of goods sold

Days inventory outstanding = ($151,500*365 days)/$281,000

Days inventory outstanding = $55,297,500/$281,000

Days inventory outstanding = 196.79 days

Cash cycle = Days sales outstanding + Days inventory outstanding - Days payable outstanding

Cash cycle = 41.54 days + 196.79 days - 48.06 days

Cash cycle = 190.27 days

Hence, the cash cycle for 2019 based on a 365-day year is 190.27 days

a. Wheat used to make flour at General Mills.
b. Sales commissions paid to sales personnel at Gap retail stores.
c. Costs incurred by General Motors to ship automobile seats purchased from the Lear Corporation to GM assembly plants.
d. Insurance paid on the Target retail stores in Michigan.

Answers

Answer:

Product costs refer to the costs incurred to produce a good while period costs are more like general expenses incurred during a period.

a. Wheat used to make flour at General Mills. ⇒ PRODUCT COST. DIRECT MATERIAL.

Wheat is a main ingredient in producing flour so it is a product cost. It is also a direct material cost because it is directly involved in the making of flour which is the main product of General Mills.

b. Sales commissions paid to sales personnel at Gap retail stores. ⇒ PERIOD COST.

Sales commissions have nothing to do with the production of the goods so is a period cost that relates to general expenses incurred in a period.

c. Costs incurred by General Motors to ship automobile seats purchased from the Lear Corporation to GM assembly plants. ⇒ PRODUCT COST. DIRECT MATERIAL COST.

The automobile seats are necessary for the production of cars which makes them a product cost. Cars are the main product of GM and chairs are necessary for that so this is a direct material.

d. Insurance paid on the Target retail stores in Michigan. ⇒ PERIOD COST.

General period expense.

Ohio Swiss Milk Products manufactures and distributes ice cream in Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia. The company wants to expand operations by locating another plant in northern Ohio. The size of the new plant will be a function of the expected demand for ice cream within the area served by the plant. A mar-ket survey is currently under way to determine that demand. Ohio Swiss wants to estimate the relationship between the manufacturing cost per gallon and the number of gallons sold in a year to determine the demand for ice cream and, thus, the size of the new plant. The following data have been collected.

Plant Cost per Thousand Gallons (Y) Thousands of Gallons Sold (X)
1 $1,015 416.9
2 973 472.5
3 1,046 250

c. Suppose that the market survey indicates a demand of 325,000 gallons in the Bucyrus Ohio, area. Estimate the manufacturing cost per gallon for a plant producing 325,000 gallons peryear.

Answers

Answer:

a. The regression equation required is Y = 915.18 – 0.2819X.

b. b-1. Correlation coefficient (r) = –0.9423

b-2. Coefficient of determination = r^2 = 88.80%

b-3. The negative correlation coefficient of -0.9423 implies that increase in X mostly causes a decrease in Y. The coefficient of determination implies that 88.80% variation in Y is explained by X.

c. The manufacturing cost per gallon is $823.56.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of Mean of X and Y and other values.

a. Develop a regression equation to forecast the cost per gallon as a function of the number of gallons produced.

The regression can be written as follows:

Y = bo + b1X ………………… (1)

b1 = (Sum of (Y - Mean of Y) * (X - Mean of X)) / (Sum of (X - Mean of X)^2) = –34,273.08 / 121,585.14 = –0.2819

b0 = Mean of Y – (b1 * Mean of X) = 1,018.20 - (365.44 * 0.2819) = 915.18

Substituting b) and b1 values into equation (1), regression equation to forecast the cost per gallon as a function of the number of gallons produced can be written as follows:

Y = 915.18 – 0.2819X ……………………….. (2)

Equation (2) is the regression equation required.

b. What are the correlation coefficient and the coefficient of determination? Comment on your regression equation in light of these measures.

b-1. Correlation coefficient (r) can be calculated using the following formula:

r = (Sum of (Y - Mean of Y) * (X - Mean of X)) / ((Sum of (Y - Mean of Y)^2) * (Sum of (X - Mean of X)^2))^0.5 = –34,273.08 / (10,879.60 * 121,585.14)^0.5 = –0.9423

b-2. Coefficient of determination = r^2 = –0.94^2 = 0.8880, or 88.80%

b-3. The negative correlation coefficient of -0.9423 implies that increase in X mostly causes a decrease in Y. The coefficient of determination implies that 88.80% variation in Y is explained by X.

c. Suppose that the market survey indicates a demand of 325,000 gallons in the Bucyrus Ohio, area. Estimate the manufacturing cost per gallon for a plant producing 325,000 gallons per year.

Since X and Y are in thousands, 325,000 gallons implies we have:

X = 325

Substitute X = 325 into equation (2), we have:

Y = 915.18 - (0.2819 * 325)

Expressing in full form, we have:

Y = $823

Therefore, the manufacturing cost per gallon is $823.56.

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Transfer Pricing: Various Computations

Corning Company has a decentralized organization with a divisional  structure. Two of these divisions are the Appliance Division and the Manufactured Housing Division. Each divisional manager is evaluated on the basis of ROI.

The Appliance Division produces a small automatic dishwasher that the Manufactured Housing Division can use in one of its models. Appliance can produce up to 20,000 of these dishwashers per year. The variable costs of manufacturing the dishwashers are $98.The Manufactured Housing Division inserts the dishwasher into the model house and then sells the manufactured house to outside customers for $73,000 each. The division's capacity is 4,000 units. The variable costs of the manufactured house (in addition to the cost of the dishwasher itself) are $42,600.  

Required:

Assume each part is independent, unless otherwise indicated.

1) Assume that all of the dishwashers produced can be sold to external customers for $320 each. The Manufactured Housing Division wants to buy 4,000 dishwashers per year. What should the transfer price be?

2) Refer to Requirement 1. Assume $24 of avoidable distribution costs. Identify the maximum and minimum transfer prices.  

3) Assume that the Appliance Division is operating at 75 percent capacity. The Manufactured Housing Division is currently buying 4,000 dishwashers from an outside supplier for $290 each. Assume that any joint benefit will be split evenly between the two divisions. What is the expected transfer price?

Answer:

a) The transfer price TP is the market ( $ 320 )

b)

- minimum transfer price : $ 296

- maximum transfer price : $ 320

c) the expected transfer price is $ 194

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) What should the transfer price be?

The transfer price TP is the market ( $ 320 ) as all the dishwashers produced will be sold to the external customers for $ 320 .

b) Identify the maximum and minimum transfer prices?

Refer to question 1 above and assuming $24 of avoidable distribution costs.

the maximum and minimum transfer prices will be;

- minimum transfer price : $ 320 - $ 24 = $ 296

- maximum transfer price : $ 320

c) What is the expected transfer price?

given that; the variable costs of manufacturing the dishwashers are $98.

The Manufactured Housing Division is currently buying 4,000 dishwashers from an outside supplier for $290 each.

so potential gain = $290 - $98

= $ 192

thus, share of gain of each division will be;

⇒ $ 192 / 2 = $ 96

so the transfer price will be;

⇒ $ 98 + $ 96

= $ 194

Therefore, the expected transfer price is $ 194

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The preparation of the production budget is presented below;

Expected sales units 800,000 candles

Add: Desired closing inventory, Dec 31 20,000 units  

Total units available 820,000 units  

Subtract: Estimated opening inventory,Jan 1 -35,000  units

Total units to be produced 785,000  units

Hence, the above format should be prepared for the production budget

Key Co. plans to present comparative financial statements for the years ended December 31, 20X1 and 20X2, respectively. Smith, CPA, audited Key's financial statements for both years and plans to report on the comparative financial statements on May 1, 20X3. Key's current management team was not present until January 1, 20X2. What period of time should be covered by Key's management representation letter

Answers

Answer: B.  January 1, 20X1, through May 1, 20X3

Explanation:

The management representation letter should cover all the periods that will be in the auditor's report not just the periods that the current management team was in effect in.

Even though the financial statements are for the years ended December 31, 20X1 and 20X2, the auditor has a responsibility to include the events that happened all the way up to the date the reports will be released on May 20X3.

This is why the management representation letter needs to include the entire period of January 1, 20X1, through May 1, 20X3 because those will be in the audit report.

Answers

Answer:

Part a

Debit  : Work in Process - Rolling Department $510,000

Credit : Work in Process - Casting Department $510,000

Part b

Debit  : Work in Process - Overheads $54,700

Debit  : Work in Process - Direct labor $26,500

Credit : Accounts Payable $81,200

Part c

Debit  : Finished Goods Inventory $553,200

Credit : Work in Process - Rolling Department $553,200

Part d

Debit  : Finished Goods Inventory $553,200

Credit : Work in Process - Rolling Department $553,200

Part e

$18200 credit

The following appeared in the October 15, 2021, issue of the Financial Smarts Journal:

Required:
1. Based on the information provided in the announcement, indicate whether the market rate of interest is higher or lower than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.
2. If debt issue costs were $75,000 and the bonds were issued on an interest payment date, what entry did Craft use to record the sale?

Answers

Answer:

1. The market rate of interest is higher than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

2. Debit Cash for $746,700,000; Dbit Discount on bond payable for $3,225,000; Debit Bond issue cost for $75,000; and Credit Bond payable for $750,000,000.

Explanation:

1. Based on the information provided in the announcement, indicate whether the market rate of interest is higher or lower than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

From the information provided, it can be observed that the face value of this bond is 100% but it is issued at 99.57% price. Since the issue price of 99.57% is less than the face value, this implies that the bond is issued at a discount.

When a bond is issued at a discount, it indicates the stated interest rate is lower than the market interest rate.

Therefore, the market rate of interest is higher than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

2. If debt issue costs were $75,000 and the bonds were issued on an interest payment date, what entry did Craft use to record the sale?

Before the journal entry is prepared, the following are first calculated:

Proceeds from bond issue = Bond price * Total face value = $750,000,000 * 99.57% = $746,775,000

Discount on bond = Total face value - Proceeds from bond issue = 750,000,000 - $746,775,000 = $3,225,000

Cash = Proceeds from bond issue - Debt issue costs = $746,775,000 - $75,000 = $746,700,000

The journal entry will now look as follows:

Description                                 Debit ($)                Credit ($)      

Cash                                        746,700,000

Discount on bond payable        3,225,000

Bond issue cost                               75,000

  Bond payable                                                      750,000,000

(To record bond issue at a discount.)

Answers

aAnswer:

Note: See the lower part of the attached excel for the table for the answer.

Explanation:

In the attached excel file, the following calculations are done:

(a) Operating income = Sales * Profit margin = $6,000,000 * 20% = $1,200,000

(b) Invested assets = Operating income / Return on investment = $1,200,000 / 16% = $7,500,000

(c) Investment turnover = Return on investment / Profit margin = 16% / 20% = 0.80 times

(d) Sales = Operating income / Profit margin = 1,512,000.00 / 12% = $12,600,000

(e) Investment assets = Sales / Investment turnover = $12,600,000 / 1.40 = $9,000,000.00

(f) Return on investment = Investment turnover * Profit margin = 1.40 * 12% = 16.80%

(g) Operating income = Invested assets * Return on investment = $11,000,000 / 17.50% = $1,925,000

(h) Profit margin = (Operating income / Sales) * 100 = ($1,925,000 / $13,750,000) * 100 = 14.0%

(i) Investment turnover = Return on investment / Profit margin = 17.50% / 14.0% = 1.25 times

(j) Return on investment = (Operating income / Invested assets) * 100 = ($840,000 / $3,500,000) * 100 = 24.0%

(k) Profit margin = (Operating income / Sales) * 100 = ($840,000 / $5,250,000) * 100 = 16.0%

(l) Investment turnover = Return on investment / Profit margin = 24.0% / 16.0% = 1.50
