Corny and Sweet grows and sells sweet corn at its roadside produce stand. The selling price per dozen is $4.75, variable costs are $2.00 per dozen, and total fixed costs are $1100.00. How many dozens of ears of corn must Corny and Sweet sell to breakeven? (Round your final answer to the nearest unit amount.)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Selling price = $4.75

Variable costs= $2.00

Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin / sale

= ($4.75 - $2.00) / $4.75 = 57.8%

Break even sale in dollars = fixed costs / contribution margin ratio

= $1100 / 57.8% = $1903

Breakeven Sales = $1903

Byrd Company produces one product, a putter called GO-Putter. Byrd uses a standard cost system and determines that it should take one hour of direct labor to produce one GO-Putter. The normal production capacity for this putter is 120,000 units per year. The total budgeted overhead at normal capacity is $1,080,000 comprised of $420,000 of variable costs and $660,000 of fixed costs. Byrd applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours. During the current year, Byrd produced 74,000 putters, worked 98,300 direct labor hours, and incurred variable overhead costs of $133,200 and fixed overhead costs of $612,000.

Required:
a. Compute the predetermined variable overhead rate and the predetermined fixed overhead rate.
b. Compute the applied overhead for Byrd for the year.
c. Compute the total overhead variance.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard= 1 direct labor hour per unit

The total budgeted overhead at normal capacity is $1,080,000 comprised of $420,000 of variable costs and $660,000 of fixed costs.

During the current year, Byrd produced 74,000 putters, worked 98,300 direct labor hours, and incurred variable overhead costs of $133,200 and fixed overhead costs of $612,000.

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= (420,000 + 660,000)/120,000

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $9 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

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

Allocated MOH= 9*98,300= $884,700

Finally, the total overhead variance:

Overhead variance= real overhead - allocated overhead

Overhead variance= 745,200 - 884,700

Overhead variance= 139,500 favorable

For a present sum of $840,000, determine the annual worth (in then-current dollars) in years 1 through 6 if the market interest rate is 10% per year and the inflation rate is 3% per year. The annual worth is:________ $ .

Answers

Answer:

The annual worth is:________

$667,380

Explanation:

Present value of investment  = $840,000

Number of years = 6

Market interest rate = 10%

Inflation rate = 3%

Real interest rate = 7%

PV Annuity factor = 4.767

Total FV of annuity = $840,000 * 4.767 = $4,004,280

Annual worth = $4,004,280/6 - $667,380

The annual worth of the investment of $840,000 will be $667,380 based on the market-adjusted interest rate of 7% (10 - 3).

James, Inc., has purchased a brand new machine to produce its High Flight line of shoes. The machine has an economic life of 5 years. The depreciation schedule for the machine is straight-line with no salvage value. The machine costs $540,000. The sales price per pair of shoes is $77, while the variable cost is $29. Fixed costs of $245,000 per year are attributed to the machine. The corporate tax rate is 22 percent and the appropriate discount rate is 9 percent. What is the financial break-even point? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16)

Answers

Answer:

3,074 units sold or total revenue of $236,698 per year

Explanation:

cost of machine $540,000

depreciation expense per year = $540,000 / 5 = $108,000

contribution margin per unit sold = $77 - $29 = $48

we generally calculate the financial break even point of a business by using the following formula:

= EBIT × (1 - interest expense) × (1 - tax rate) - preferred dividends

But when we are dealing with projects, the financial break even point is the sales level at which the project's NPV = $0. If the sales level is lower, then the project will be rejected, and if the sales level is higher, then it should be accepted.

using an annuity formula, the free cash flow per year needed for the NPV = $0 is $540,000 / 3.8897 (PV annuity factor, 9%, 5 periods) = $138,828.19

$138,828.19 = {[(unit sales x $48) - $108,000] x 0.78} + $108,000

$30,828.19 = [(unit sales x $48) - $108,000] x 0.78

$39,523.32 = (unit sales x $48) - $108,000

$147,523.32 = unit sales x $48

unit sales = $147,523.32 / $48 = 3,073.40 units ≈ 3,074 units sold

Final answer:

The financial break-even point is approximately 5,104 units.

Explanation:

The financial break-even point can be calculated by determining the number of units that need to be sold in order to cover the fixed costs. First, we need to calculate the contribution margin per unit, which is the sales price per unit minus the variable cost per unit. In this case, it is $77 - $29 = $48. Next, we divide the fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit to find the break-even point in units. Using the formula: Break-even point (in units) = Fixed costs / Contribution margin per unit. Plugging in the numbers, we get: $245,000 / $48 = 5,104.17. Therefore, the financial break-even point is approximately 5,104 units.

Lake Corp., a newly organized company, reported pretax financial income of $100,000 for 20X0. Among the items reported in Lake's 20X0 income statement are the following: Premium on officer's life insurance with Lake as owner and beneficiary of $15,000

Interest received on municipal bonds of $ 20,000

The enacted tax rate for 20X0 is 30% and 25% thereafter. In its December 31, 20X0, balance sheet, Lake should report a deferred income tax liability of:

a.$4,500

b.$0

c.$3,750

d.$28,500

Answers

Answer:

b.$0

Explanation:

As we know that

When there is a temporary discrepancy between financial income and taxable income a deferred tax benefit or liability occurs. Temporary difference means an benefit or cost with respect to treatment that has just a timing gap.

Moreover, the Premium on officer's life insurance is tax deductible i.e $15,000  as it is paid by the company due to which difference arise between the financial and taxable income.

And,  

Interest received on municipal bonds $20,000 are mostly exempt from federal income tax.

Therefore, it shows no such difference as it indicates the permanent difference

A firm facing a price of $15 in a perfectly competitive market decides to produce 100 widgets. If its marginal cost of producing the last widget is $12 and it is seeking to maximize profit, the firm should

Answers

Answer:

Produce more widgets.

Explanation:

Given the price charge by the competitive firm is = $15

The unit produced = 100

The marginal cost of the last unit =  $12

The firm should produce more widget because in the competitive market the firm charge the price that is equal to MC. Moreover, in the given question the price is greater than the marginal cost. Therefore, the firm should produce more widgets in order to reach the condition “P=MC”.
