For a manufacturing company that you are consulting for, managers are unsure about making inventory decisions associated with a key engine component. The annual demand is estimated to be 15,000 units and is assumed to be constant throughout the year. Each unit costs $80. The companys accounting department estimates that its opportunity cost for holding this item in stock for one year is 18% of the unit value. Each order placed with the supplier costs $220. The companys policy is to place a fixed order for Q units whenever the inventory reaches a predetermined reorder point that provides sufficient stock to meet demand until the suppliers order can be shipped and received. As a consultant, your task is to develop and implement a decision model to help them arrive at the best decision. As a guide, consider the following:1. Define the data, uncontrollable inputs, and decision variables that influence total inventory cost.2. Develop mathematical functions that compute the annual ordering cost and annual holding cost based on average inventory held throughout the year in order to arrive at a model for total cost.3. Implement your model on a spreadsheet.4. Use data tables to find an approximate order quantity that results in the smallest total cost.5. Use Solver to verify your result.6. Conduct what-if analyses to study the sensitivity of total cost to changes in the model parameters.7. Explain your results and analysis in a memo to the vice president of operations.

If a war destroys a large portion of a country's capital stock but the saving rate is unchanged, the Solow model predicts output will grow and that the new steady state will approach: A. a higher output level than before. B. the same output level as before. C. a lower output level than before. D. the Golden Rule output level.

Answers

Answer:

B. The same output level as before.

Explanation:

If there is a war broke out in a country and because of the war a large potion of the country's capital stock is destroyed but the thing that is unchanged is saving rate.

So according to the solow model the output will grow and the steady state that is new will be the same level of output as before.

Prescott expects to produce 225,000 basic models and 225,000 professional models. Compute the predetermined overhead allocation rates using activity-based costing. How much overhead is allocated to the basic model? To the professional model?Estimated overhead cost / Estimated qty of the allocation base= Predetermined OH Basic Model Professional ModelManufacturing overhead assembly 264800 195200Manufacturing overhead packaging 55200 227700Total manufacturing overhead cost 320000 422900

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The Calculation of Predetermined OH Rate is shown below:

For Materials Handling, it is

= Estimated Overhead Costs ÷ Estimated allocated base Quantity  

= $54,000 ÷ 96

= $562.50 per part

For Machine Setup, it is

= Estimated Overhead Costs ÷ Estimated allocated base Quantity

= $204,000 ÷ 60

= $3,400 per setup

For Insertion of Parts, it is

= Estimated Overhead Costs ÷ Estimated allocated base Quantity  

= $486,000 ÷ 96

= $5,062.50 per part

Now  

Calculation of allocated OH is

For Basic Model:

Allocated OH is

= $562.50 × 32 + $3,400 × 20 + $5,062.50 × 32

= $248,000

For Professional Model:

Allocated OH is

= $562.50 × 64 + $3,400 × 40 + $5,062.50 × 64

= $496,000

Dimitrov Corporation, a company that produces and sells a single product, has provided its contribution format income statement for July.Sales (6,800 units) $401,200
Variable expenses 265,200

Contribution margin 136,000
Fixed expenses 103,500
Net operating income $32,500



If the company sells 6,700 units, its net operating income should be closest to:

a. $31,979
b. $32,500
c. $28,000
d. $30,500

Answers

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Contribution margin per unit:

= Contribution margin ÷ No. of units sold

= 136,000 ÷ 6,800

= $20 per unit

If the company sells 6,700 units, then

Net operating income:

= Contribution margin - Fixed expenses

= (6,700 units × $20 per unit) - $103,500

= $134,000 - $103,500

= $30,500

Therefore, the net operating income of this company is closest to $30,500.

Final answer:

In March 2014, Traveling Gourmet, Inc. had several transactions that affected its financial accounts. These transactions included receiving cash from shareholders, purchasing a store with a mortgage, borrowing money from a bank, purchasing supplies, catering events, selling food at the retail store, and making dividend payments. By analyzing these transactions, we can compute the ending balances for different accounts and prepare an income statement for the month.

Explanation:

To compute the ending balances for the various accounts, we need to track the cash inflows and outflows for each transaction. Here is a summary of the transactions and their effects on the accounts:

  1. a. Cash received from the two shareholders increases the Cash account; the accounts receivable, equipment, van, and supplies are assets that also increase. The issuance of common stock does not affect cash; it increases the Common Stock and Additional Paid-in Capital accounts.
