Stratford Company purchased a machine with an estimated useful life of seven years. The machine will generate cash inflows of $90,000 each year over the next seven years. If the machine has no salvage value at the end of seven years, and assuming the company's discount rate is 10%, what is the purchase price of the machine if the net present value of the investment is $170,000? A. $438,120 B. $170,000 C. $221,950 D. $268,120

$268,120 The machine's positive net present value means that the present value of the $90,000 annual cash inflows exceeds the purchase price by $170,000. The present value of the annual cash flows discounted at 10% is $438,120 ($90,000 x 4.868); therefore the purchase price of the machine is $268,120 ($438,120 - $170,000).

At a break-even point of 400 units sold, variable expenses were $4,000 and fixed expenses were $2,000. What will the 401st unit sold contribute to profit? - $15 - $0 - $10 - $5

$5 Break-even point (units) = Fixed expenses ¸Contribution margin per unit Substituting: 400=$2,000 / Contribution margin per unitContribution margin per unit = $5

If the contribution margin ratio is 32%, target operating income is $60,000, and the sales revenue needed to achieve the target operating income is $400,000, what are total fixed expenses? - $188,000 - $68,000 - $19,200 - $128,000

$68,000 S - VC= CM - FC = P .32(400,000) - FC = $60,000 128,000 - FC = $60,000 128,000 - 60,000 = 68,000FC

Kyle Manufacturing produces two types of products - Card Games and Puzzles. The following information is available related to each product: Card Games Puzzles Sales price per unit: $6.00$15.00 Variable costs per unit: 2.00 3.50 60% of the products sold are Card Games and 40% are Puzzles (3:2). If total fixed costs are $24,500, how many Puzzles need to be sold in order for the company to break-even? A. 1,400 B. 852 C. 3,500 D. 1,265

1,400 WACM = $4(.6) + 11.5(.4) = $2.40 + $4.60 =$7 BE in total units = 24,500/7 = 3,500 unitsPuzzles portion = 3,500 x .4 = 1,400 units

The Silverside Company is considering investing in two alternative projects: Project 1 Project 2 Investment: $500,000 $260,000 Useful life (years): 8 8 Estimated annual net cash inflows for useful life: $110,000 $45,000 Residual value: $32,000 $16,000 Depreciation method: Straight-line Straight-line Required rate of return: 12% 10% What is the accounting rate of return for Project 1? A. 33.70% B. 10.30% C. 22.00% D. 15.60%

10.30% (Annual net cash flow - depreciation) / Investment = Accounting rate of return ($110,000 - ((500,000 - 32,000) / 8)) / 500,000 ($110,000 - 58,500) / 500,000 = 10.30%

Spencer Corporation has a single product whose selling price is $10. At an expected sales level of $1,000,000, the company's variable expenses are $600,000 and its fixed expenses are $300,000. The marketing manager has recommended that the selling price be increased by 20%, with an expected decrease of only 10% in unit sales. What would be the company's net operating income if the marketing manager's recommendation is adopted? - $240,000 - $290,000 - $180,000 - $132,000

240,000 Sales in units = $1,000,000 ¸ $10 = 100,000 units Variable expense per unit = $600,000 100,000 units = $6 per unit Proposed new selling price = $10 ´ (1 + .20) = $12 Proposed new contribution margin per unit = $12 - $6 = $6 New sales units = 100,000 units - (10% ´100,000) = 90,000 units Proposed contribution margin ....... $540,000 (90,000 units x $6) ................................... Fixed expenses .......................................... 300,000 Proposed net operating income ... $240,000

Given breakeven sales in units of 28,000 and a unit contribution margin of $4, how many units must be sold to reach a target operating income of $4,000? - 1,000 - 27,000 - 29,000 - 16,000

29,000 FC @ BE = CM @ BE FC = 28,000 x 4 = $112,000 FC + TP / CM = $112,000 + 4,000 / $4 = 29,000

Last month Kelly Company had a $30,000 loss on sales of $250,000. Fixed costs are $60,000 a month. What sales revenue is needed for Kelly to break even? - $220,000 - $166,667 - $280,000 - $500,000

500,000 Contribution margin ratio is ($60,000 - $30,000)/$250,000 = 12%. Break-even sales is $60,000/0.12 = $500,000.

Redwood Corporation is considering two alternative investment proposals with the following data: Proposal X Proposal Y Investment: $830,000 $510,000 Useful life: 8 years 8 years Estimated annual netcash inflows for 8 years: $135,000 $83,000 Residual value: $50,000 $- Depreciation method: Straight-line Straight-line Required rate of return: 16% 9% How long is the payback period for Proposal X? A. 12.00 years B. 6.00 years C. 6.15 years D. 10.00 years

6.15 years Payback = Investment / annual cash flow $830,000 / $135,000 = 6.15 years

Adam Corp produces three products, and is currently short on machine hours since one of its two machines is down - only 360 hours are available this month. The selling price, costs, labor requirements, and demand of the three products are as follows: Selling Price: A $5 B $3 C $5 Variable cost per unit: A $3.50 B $2 C $2 Machine hours per unit: A .75 B .25 C 1 Demand: A 300 B 400 C 210 How many of each product should be sold while the machine is down to maximize profit? A. 200 of Product A, 0 of Product B, and 210 of Product C B. 66 of Product A, 400 of Product B, and 210 of Product C C. 300 of Product A, 400 of Product B, and 210 of Product C D. 0 of Product A, 1,440 of Product B, and 0 of Product C

66 of Product A, 400 of Product B, and 210 of Product C The contribution margin per machine hour is $2 for A, $4 for B, and $3 for C. Profit will be maximized by prioritizing B, then C, then A. Filling the 400 demand for B will leave 360 - 400 ´ .25 = 260 machine hours. Filling the 210 demand for C will leave 260 - 210 ´ 1 = 50 machine hours, which allows for production of 50/.75 = 66 units of A.

All else being equal, which of the following would not cause the contribution margin to decrease? 1. An increase in total variable costs. 2. A decrease in the sales price per unit. 3. A decrease in variable costs per unit. 4. A decrease in sales volume.

A decrease in variable costs per unit.
