Answer:
a. Gross amount of each bonus = $309.84
b. Net amount of each bonus = $129.10
Explanation:
Since the supplemental tax percent is used, the following are the relevant tax rates to be applied in the calculations:
STP = Supplemental tax percent = 25%
FICASO = Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) social security tax = 6.2%
FICAM = Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) Medicare tax = 1.45%.
SIT = State income tax = 2.8%
We therefore proceed as follows:
a. What will be the gross amount of each bonus if each employee pays a state income tax of 2.8% (besides the other payroll taxes)? You may need to add one penny to the gross so that net bonus exactly equals $200. Round your calculations and final answers to the nearest cent.
Given the tax rates above, the following formula is used to calculate the gross amount of each bonus:
Gross amount of each bonus = Holiday bonus amount / (100% - STP - FICASO - FICAM - SIT) …… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Gross amount of each bonus = $200/ (100% - 25% - 6.20% - 1.45% - 2.8%)
Gross amount of each bonus = $200 / 64.55%
Gross amount of each bonus = $309.837335398916
To the nearest cent which implies to two decimal places, we have:
Gross amount of each bonus = $309.84
b. What would the net amount of each bonus check be if the company did not gross-up the bonus? Round your intermediary calculations to the nearest cent.
The net amount of each bonus can be calculated using the following formula:
Net amount of each bonus = Holiday bonus amount * (100% - STP - FICASO - FICAM - SIT) …… (2)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (2), we have:
Net amount of each bonus = $200 * (100% - 25% - 6.20% - 1.45% - 2.8%)
Net amount of each bonus = $200 * 64.55%
Net amount of each bonus = $129.10

Assume Merck (MRK) just announced that its next dividend will be $2, paid one year from now (you just missed the prior annual dividend). You expect the dividend will grow (after the $2 dividend) by 3% per year forever. Your required return is 10%. What are you willing to pay for a share of Merck stock
Answer:
$28.57
Explanation:
Current price = D1/(Required return-Growth rate)
D1 (Next dividend) = $2
Required return = 10% = 0.1
Growth rate = 3% = 0.03
Current price = $2/(0.1-0.03)
Current price = $2 / 0.07
Current price = $28.57143
Current price = $28.57
Hence, i will be willing to pay $28.57 for a share of Merck stock.

The number of people or subordinates that a manager effectively controls and directs is called the manager's span of:
Answer: Span of Control
Explanation:
A Manager's span of control refers to all the subordinates that report to that manager. The manager therefore effectively controls and directs them and as such is answerable for them.
Spans of Control are different depending on the type of company it is. A manager with a lot of people in their span of control is said to have a Wide span of control and the reverse is a Narrow Span of control.
A very important part of management is determining the largest number of subordinates that can be in a span of control without overwhelming the manager.

Assume you make monthly deposits of $200 starting one month from now into an account that pays 6% per year, compounded semiannually. If you want to know how much you will have after four years, the value of i you should use in the F/A factor, assuming no interperiod interest, is
Answer:
3%
Explanation:
the account pays a 6% annual rate, but since it is compounded semiannually, you must divide it by 2 = 6% / 2 = 3%
since no interperiod interest is paid, the semiannual payment = $200 x 6 = $1,200
the future value = $1,200 x 8.8923 (FV annuity factor, 3%, 8 periods) = $10,670.76
Mathias Corporation manufactures and sells wire rakes. The rakes sell for $20 each. Information about the company's costs is as follows.
Variable manufacturing cost per unit $6
Variable selling and administrative cost per unit 2
Fixed manufacturing overhead per month $300,000
Fixed selling and administrative cost per month 600,000
Required:
a. Determine the company's monthly break-even point in units.
b. Determine the sales volume (in dollars) required for a monthly operating income of $1,200,000.
c. Compute the company’s margin of safety if its current monthly sales level is $2,500,000.
d. Estimate the amount by which monthly operating income will increase if the company anticipates a $100,000 increase in monthly sales volume.
Answer:
a. 75,000 units
b. $1,700,000
c. 0.40 or 40 %
d. $60,000
Explanation:
Break-even point is the level of activity where a firm neither makes a profit nor a loss.
Break-even point (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit
Where,
Contribution per unit = Unit Selling Price less Variable Costs per unit
= $20 - $6 - $2
= $12.00
Therefore,
Break-even point (units) = ($300,000 + $600,000) ÷ $12.00
= 75,000 units
Sales (dollars) to reach target profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio
Where,
Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales
= $12.00 ÷ $20.00
= 0.60
Therefore,
Sales (dollars) to reach target profit = ($300,000 + $600,000 + 1,200,000) ÷ 0.60
= $1,700,000
Margin of Safety = (Sales level - Break-even Sales level) ÷ Sales level
= ($2,500,000 - $1,500,000) ÷ $2,500,000
= 0.40 or 40 %
Calculation of Incremental Monthly Operating Income
Incremental Sales $100,000
Less Incremental Variable Costs (5,000 × $8) ($40.000)
Incremental Contribution $60,000
Less Incremental Fixed Costs $0
Incremental Operating Income $60,000
What are some of the government requirements imposed on a public corporation that are not imposed on a private, closely held corporation? Discuss pros and cons of each
Answer:
The government (the SEC) imposes several regulations on publicly traded corporations and requires mandatory reporting regarding their financial position, compensation to key employees, auditing and accounting procedures, conflicts of interest between upper management and shareholders, operating results, etc.
The pros of that large amount of reports is that it makes management accountable for what happens and it makes their job more transparent.
The downside is that they are expensive and time consuming.
On the other hand, privately held corporations decide what to disclose to the general public or the government. The IRS is something that cannot be avoided, but the SEC and its scrutiny is avoided.
Other advantages of publicly held corporations:
a publicly held corporation should be able to raise larger amounts of capitalsince the number of owners is larger, debt per ownership stake is generally much lowertop management tends to be more independent and suffer less pressures from individual stockholderspublicly trades corporations tend to receive more publicity and are better knownthey also attract more talentOther disadvantages of publicly held corporations:
publicly held corporation have a lot of owners and they all have the right to be informed about what happens within the corporation and vote to elect the board of directorssome decisions require that shareholders vote on them, e.g. mergersstock prices suffer from market riskgoing public is also expensiveWhat is the term for the relationship between printer and paper?

Champion manufactures winter fleece jackets for sale in the United States. Demand for jackets during the season is normally distributed, with a mean of 20,000 and a standard deviation of 10,000. Each jacket sells for $60 and costs $30 to produce. Any leftover jackets at the end of the season are sold for $25 at the year-end clearance sale. Holding jackets until the year-end sale adds another $5 to their cost. A recent recruit has suggested shipping leftover jackets to South America for sale in the winter there rather than running a clearance. Each jacket will fetch a price of $35 in South America, and all jackets sent there are likely to sell. Shipping costs add additional $5 to the cost of any jacket sold in South America, along with the $5 for holding jackets till the end of the season.
Required:
a. Would you recommend the South American option? Support your decision with calculations.
b. How will the South American option affect production and profitability at Champion?
c. On average, how many jackets will Champion ship to South America each season? (Note: you have already calculated this value in order to get the expected profit for the South American option.

Answer:
A. $36.28
B. $8.48
Explanation:
a. Calculation for the amount of OASDI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay
OASDI taxes is 6.2%
Hence,
OASDI taxes to withhold = 585.15*0.62
OASDI taxes to withhold = $36.28
Therefore the OASDI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay is $36.28
b. Calculation for the amount of HI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay
HI taxes is 1.45%
Hence,
HI taxes to withhold =585.15*0.0145
HI taxes to withhold=$8.48
Therefore HI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay is $8.48
Consider a project to supply Detroit with 20,000 tons of machine screws annually for automobile production. You will need an initial $3,000,000 investment in threading equipment to get the project started; the project will last for four years. The accounting department estimates that annual fixed costs will be $850,000 and that variable costs should be $450 per ton; accounting will depreciate the initial fixed asset investment straight-line to zero over the four-year project life. It also estimates a salvage value of $280,000 after dismantling costs. The marketing department estimates that the automakers will let the contract at a selling price of $600 per ton. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $300,000. You require a return of 18 percent and face a marginal tax rate of 38 percent on this project.
Required:
a. What is the estimated OCF for this project?
b. Suppose you believe that the accounting department’s initial cost and salvage value projections are accurate only to within ±15 percent; the marketing department’s price estimate is accurate only to within ±10 percent; and the engineering department’s net working capital estimate is accurate only to within ±5 percent. What is your worst-case and best-case scenario for this project?
Answer:
a) expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $600 = $12,000,000 per year
initial investment = $3,000,000 + $300,000 = $3,300,000
contribution margin per unit = $600 - $450 = $150
total contribution margin = $150 x 20,000 = $3,000,000
annual fixed costs = $850,000
depreciation expense per year = $750,000
tax rate = 38%
required return rate = 18%
after tax salvage value = $280,000 x (1 - 38%) = $173,600

NCF₃ = $1,618,000
NCF₄ = $1,618,000 + $300,000 + $173,600 = $2,091,600
NPV = $1,296,797.61
IRR = 36.36%
b) our best case scenario:
expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $660 = $13,200,000 per year
initial investment = $2,550,000 + $285,000 = $2,835,000
contribution margin per unit = $660 - $450 = $210
total contribution margin = $210 x 20,000 = $4,200,000
annual fixed costs = $850,000
depreciation expense per year = $637,500
tax rate = 38%

NPV = $3,655,445.13
IRR = 74.34%
our worst case scenario:
expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $540 = $10,800,000 per year
initial investment = $3,450,000 + $315,000 = $3,765,000
contribution margin per unit = $540 - $450 = $90
total contribution margin = $90 x 20,000 = $1,800,000
annual fixed costs = $850,000
depreciation expense per year = $862,500
tax rate = 38%
required return rate = 18%
after tax salvage value = $238,000 x (1 - 38%) = $147,560
NCF₀ = -$3,765,000
NCF₁ = [($1,800,000 - $850,000 - $862,500) x 0.62] + $862,500 = $916,750

garland mills purchased a certain piece of macinery 3 years ago for $500,000. Its present resale value is $320,000. Assuming that the macine's resale value decreases exponentially, what will it be 4 years from now
Answer:
New value= $80,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $500,000
Current value= $320,000
First, we need to calculate the annual decrease in value:
Total decrease 3 years= 500,000 - 320,000= 180,000
Annual decrease= 180,000/3 = $60,000
Now, the value of the machine 4 years from now:
New value= 320,000 - (60,000*4)
New value= $80,000

SY Manufacturers (SYM) is producing T-shirts in three colors: red, blue, and white. The monthly demand for each color is 3,487 units. Each shirt requires 0.75 pound of raw cotton that is imported from the Luft-Geshfet-Textile (LGT) Company in Brazil. The purchasing price per pound is $1.55 (paid only when the cotton arrives at SYM's facilities) and transportation cost by sea is $0.70 per pound. The traveling time from LGT’s facility in Brazil to the SYM facility in the United States is two weeks. The cost of placing a cotton order, by SYM, is $186 and the annual interest rate that SYM is facing is 32 percent of total cost per pound.

g. If the annual interest cost is only 5 percent, how will it affect the annual number of orders, the optimal batch size, and the average inventory?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
Given the following :
Price per pound = $1.55
Raw material required = 0.75 pound
Transport cost by sea = $0.70
Monthly demand for each of the three colors = 3487
EOQ = √2DS / H
D = 3 * 12 * 3487 * 0. 75 = 94149
Total cost of purchase = 1.55 + 0.70 = 2.25
Setup cost (S) = $186
Holding cost = 32% * 2.25 = 0.72
EOQ = √(2*94149*186) / 0.72
= 6974.50
b. How frequently should the company order cotton?
Annual demand / EOQ
94149 / 6974.50
= 13.50 ;
12 months / 13.50 = 0.89 month
c. Assuming that the first order is needed on 1-Jul, when should SYM place the order?
Since lead time is 2 weeks, order should be made 2 weeks before : 17th June
d. How many orders will SYM place during the next year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Annual demand / EOQ
94149 / 6974.50
= 13.50 times
e. What is the resulting annual holding cost? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Holding cost * EOQ /2
0.75 * (6974.50/2) = 2615.44
f. What is the resulting annual ordering cost?
Annual ordering cost $
Ordering cost * number of orders
$186 * 13.50 = $2,511

10-13 Given the cost per king-size sheet set above, and assuming the manufacturer has total fixed costs of $500,000 and estimates first year sales will be 50,000 sets, determine the price to consumers if the company desires a 40 percent margin on sales.
10-14 If the company decides to sell through retailers instead of directly to consumers online, to maintain the consumer price you calculated in the previous question, at what price must it sell the product to a wholesaler who then sells it to retailers? Assume wholesalers desire a 10 percent margin and retailers get a 20 percent margin, both based on their respective selling prices.
Answer:
10-13 : $277
10-14 : $199.40
Explanation:
10-13
therefore Cost per king-size sheet set will be
$28 + $12 + $10 + $3 + $16 + $14 + $5 + $8 + $15 + $30 + $15 = $ 156
First year sales = 50,000 sets
Total cost = $500,000
Average fixed cost = $500,000/50,000 = $10
Total Cost per king-size sheet set = ( cost per king-size sheet )$156 + (Average fixed cost ) $10 = $166
Desired margin on sales = 40%
Let us consider the sale price to be $100x
since the margin is 40% of the sales this means margin = (40/100)*100x = 40x
So, cost price should be= $(100 – 40) = $60x
Also, Cost price = $166
which means : $166 = 60x
hence x = 166 / 60 = 2.77
therefore the sale price = ( 100 * 2.77 ) = $277
10 - 14
The Retailer sells to customers at a price of $277 after buying from the wholesaler
The retailer gets the margin of 20%, therefore the margin of retailer will be = (20/100)*277 = $55.4
Therefore the price at which retailer will buy the sheet set from the wholesaler will be = $277 ( original price ) - ( 20% of $277) $55.4 = $221.60
While the Wholesaler sells the sheet set to the retailer for $221.60 and gets the margin of 10%
hence the margin of the wholesaler = 10%*221.60 = $22.16
Then the wholesaler will get the sheet set at
= $221.6 – $22.16 = $199.40
This the price at which the company will now sell the sheets to the wholesaler

What is an economy?An economy is a region where products and services are produced, distributed, traded, and consumed. It is generally understood to be a social domain that places an emphasis on the behaviors, discourses, and tangible manifestations connected to the creation, utilization, and management of finite resources.
One's culture, values, education, technological advancement, history, social organization, political structure, legal system, and natural resources are all major determinants of an economy's processes.
