Chad is the founder of a firm producing self-driving vehicles. Because the industry is so new and chaotic, Chad favors a top-down strategic planning approach in which he exerts strong control over all aspects of the business, from product development and design to manufacturing and marketing. What is wrong with this scenario

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. The self-driving vehicle industry is changing too much for the top- down approach to be effective.

Explanation:

The top-down strategic planning approach involves the company goals and their subdivisions. The aim is to gradually move from the top to down in a specific hierarchy. This approach lies on higher authority and in contrast the bottom-up strategy favors decision making that gives complete staff a voice.

To meet projected annual sales, Bluegill Manufacturers, Inc. needs to produce 75,000 machines for the year. The estimated January 1 inventory is 7,000 units, and the desired December 31 inventory is 12,000 units. What are projected sales units for the year? fill in the blank 1 units

Answers

Answer: 70,000 units

Explanation:

You can use the formula for the ending inventory to get this:

Ending inventory = Opening inventory + Production for the year - Projected sales

12,000 = 7,000 + 75,000 - Projected sales

12,000 + Projected sales = 82,000

Projected sales = 82,000 - 12,000

Projected sales = 70,000 units

Galaxy Air, previously a no-growth firm, has two million shares outstanding. Until now, it consistently earned $20 million per year on its assets. (It has no debt and pays out all earnings as dividends. Its cost of capital is 10 percent.) Due to its newly appointed CEO, Galaxy Air is now able to squeeze out 1 percent annual growth by plowing back 5 percent of earnings. Calculate its stock price per share

Answers

Answer: $106.61

Explanation:

The following can be deduced from the information given:

Net Income = $20

Weighted Average no. of shares = 2

Earning per share (EPS) = $20/2 = $10

DPS =(100% - 5%) of EPS

= 95% × $10 = $9.5

Growth Rate (g) = 1%

Cost of equity (Ke) = 10%

DPS1 = [9.5 × (1+0.01)] = 9.595

Price of Stock will now be

= Po = DPS1/(Ke-g)

= 9.595/(0.10-0.01)

= 106.61

An owner lists her home at a 7% commission rate and wants to net $45,000 after paying the mortgage balance of $68,000 and the broker's commission. To the nearest dollar, what should the selling price be to net her $45,000

Answers

Answer: $121505

Explanation:

Let the selling price be represented by x.

Then the broker's commission will be:

= 7% of x = 0.07 × x = 0.07x

Based on the information given,

Selling price - (Mortgage balance + Broker's commission) = $45000

Therefore, x - ($68000 + 0.07x) = $45000

x - $68000 - 0.07x = $45000

x - 0.07x = $45000 + $68000

0.93x = $113000

x = $113000/0.93

x = $121505

Therefore, the selling price is $121505

Beagle Corporation has 26,000 shares of $10 par common stock outstanding and 16,000 shares of $100 par, 5.50% cumulative, nonparticipating preferred stock outstanding. Dividends have not been paid for the past two years. This year, a $420,000 dividend will be paid. What are the dividends per share payable to preferred and common, respectively

Answers

Answer:

$16.5 per share; $6 per share

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the dividends per share payable to preferred and common, respectively

DIVIDENDS PER SHARE PAYABLE TO PREFERRED

First step

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders

= Outstanding preferred stock × Par value of preferred stock × 5.50% × Number of years

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders= 16000 × 100 × 5.50% × 3

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders= $264,000

Second step

Total dividend per share paid to Preferred Stockholders= Total dividend paid to preferred ÷ No. of outstanding shares

Total dividend per share paid to Preferred Stockholders= $264,000 ÷ 16,000 shares

Total dividend per share paid to Preferred Stockholders= $16.5 per share

DIVIDENDS PER SHARE PAYABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS

First step

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders

= Outstanding preferred stock × Par value of preferred stock × 5.50% × Number of years

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders= 16000 × 100 × 5.50% × 3

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders= $264,000

Second step

Total dividend per share paid to common Stockholders= (Dividend paid in the current year - Total dividend paid to preferred) ÷ Common stock outstanding shares

Total dividend per share paid to common Stockholders= ($420,000 - $264,000) ÷ 26,000

Total dividend per share paid to common Stockholders= $156,000 ÷ 26,000 shares

Total dividend per share paid to common Stockholders= 6 per share

Therefore the dividends per share payable to preferred and common, respectively is:

$16.5 per share; $6 per share

AMD has bonds outstanding with a face value of $1,000, 13 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 6.5 percent, paid annually. What is the company's pretax cost of debt if the bonds currently sell for $1,056

Answers

Answer: 5.90%

Explanation:

The pre-tax cost of debt refers to the yield on the bonds.

The Yield is calculated by the formula:

= (Annual coupon + (Face value - Present value) / Periods till maturity) ÷ ((Face value + Present value)/2)

Annual coupon = 6.5% * 1,000 = $65

Yield is:

= (65 + (1,000 - 1,056) / 13) ÷ ((1,000 + 1,056) / 2)

= 5.90%

Overhead applied = 98,000 * $9 per DLH

Overhead applied = $882,000

Assume, for this question only, the following: During the negotiations Juan guaranteed Sarita that the business had turned a profit in each of the past 5 years. Actually, it lost money in each of those years, although Juan did not know that. When Juan made the statement about the business's profitability, however, Sarita was conferring with her attorney and did not hear it. Her friend Harry, who was observing the negotiations, heard Juan's statement. Before long, when Sarita realizes what a bad deal she's made, she laments the fact to Harry. When Harry inquires how a business that had been profitable under Juan was suddenly losing money, Sarita is confused. They finally realize that Harry heard Juan's misstatement about the business's profitability and Sarita did not. Even so, Sarita is thrilled. With Harry as her key witness, she seeks to rescind the sale agreement claiming innocent misrepresentation. Which of the following is true?
A. Rescission, because Juan intended to defraud Sarita.
B. No rescission, because Juan's claims of the business's profitability would not have been material to Sarita if she had heard them.
C. No rescission, because Juan lacked sufficient knowledge of the false nature of his statement and did not intend to trick Sarita.
D. Rescission, because Juan's claims of the business's profitability would have been material to Sarita if she had heard them. E. No rescission, because Sarita did not actually rely on Juan's false statement about the business's profitability.

Answers

Answer:

The true statement about this case is:

D. Rescission, because Juan's claims of the business's profitability would have been material to Sarita if she had heard them.

Explanation:

Though Juan was unaware that the statement was false at the time the contract was signed, the remedy is recession since no damage has been sustained by the other party.  The false statement borders on negligent misrepresentation because Juan was supposed to be aware of the company's profitability by investigating the material fact.  While it is not clear if reliance was placed on the statement when the contract was signed, the fact remains that there was a negligent misrepresentation.

Dilts Company has a unit selling price of $400, unit variable costs of $250, and fixed costs of $210,000. Compute the break-even point in units using (a) the mathematical equation and (b) unit contribution margin.

Answers

Answer:

(a) Break-even point in units using the mathematical equation = 1,400 units

(b) Break-even point in units using unit contribution margin = 1,400 units

Explanation:

(a) Break-even point in units using the mathematical equation

Break-even point in units using the mathematical equation = Fixed costs / (Unit selling price - Unit variable costs) …………….. (1)

Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:

Break-even point in units using the mathematical equation = $210,000 / ($400 - $250) = 1,400 units

(b) Break-even point in units using unit contribution margin

Unit contribution margin = Unit selling price - Unit variable costs = $400 - $250 = $150

Therefore, we have:

Break-even point in units using unit contribution margin = Fixed costs / Unit contribution margin = = $210,000 / $50 = 1,400 units

why multinational company are developed​

Answers

Answer:

Multinationals provide an inflow of capital into the developing country.

Explanation:

This capital investment helps the economy develop and increase its productive capacity.

Multinational corporations (MNCs) have a global presence, even in developing countries. There are over 80,000 companies that drive the 21st-century economy. For example, Coca-Cola sells its product in nearly every country and has established over 900 bottling facilities worldwide. MNCs have propelled the GDP of their parent countries, most notably the United States, Japan, China and Western Europe, but how do their international operations affect developing countries?

It is difficult to say whether multinational corporations in developing countries are decidedly ‘good’ or ‘bad.’ One must consider many perspectives before making that judgment. However, researchers have identified a variety of positive and negative impacts applicable to most MNCs

In the short run, open-market purchases a. increase investment and real GDP, and decrease interest rates. b. increase real GDP and interest rates, and decrease investment. c. increase investment and interest rates, and decrease real GDP. d. decrease investment, interest rates, and real GDP.

Answers

Answer: a. increase investment and real GDP, and decrease interest rates.

Explanation:

During an Open Market Purchase, the central bank of the country would be buying back securities from the public which means that it would be infusing money into the economic system.

With an increased amount of money in the economy, people will be able to save more which means that interests rate will drop because there are now more loanable funds. This drop in interest rates will encourage more companies and people to borrow cash for investment which will then lead to a higher GDP.

In the short run, in the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in investment and real GDP and decreased interest rates. Thus option A is correct.

The interest rate has been the amount of interest lent onto the principal sum. The GDP has been the gross domestic product that has been the market value of the final products.

In the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in the amount of money in the market. The government has been buying the securities and results in the market flow of money. The market flow will eventually result in an increase in the GDP with the decreased interest rates.

Thus in the short run, in the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in investment and real GDP and decreased interest rates. Thus option A is correct.

Min. req'd rate of return           15.00 %                     18.40 %            12.00 %

Required:

1. Compute the return on investment (ROI) for each division using the formula stated in terms of margin and turnover.

2. Compute the residual income (loss) for each division.

3. Assume that each division is presented with an investment opportunity that would yield a 17% rate of return. a. If performance is being measured by ROI, which division or divisions will probably accept or reject the opportunity? b. If performance is being measured by residual income, which division or divisions will probably accept the opportunity?

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:

1. Compute the return on investment (ROI) for each division using the formula stated in terms of margin and turnover.

The relevant formulae to use are as follows:

Margin = Net Operating Income / Sales

Turnover = Sales / Average Operating Assets

Return on Investment = Margin * Turnover

Therefore, we have:

Division A:

Margin = $317,200 / $6,100,000 = 0.0520, or 5.20%

Turnover = $6,100,000 / $1,525,000 = 4 times

Return on Investment = 5.2% * 4 = 0.2080, or 20.80%

Division B:

Margin = $929,200 / $10,100,000 = 0.0920, or 9.20%

Turnover = $10,100,000 / $5,050,000 = 2 times

Return on Investment = 9.20% * 2 = 0.1840, or 18.40%

Division C:

Margin = $225,400 / $9,200,000 = 0.0245, or 2.45%

Turnover = $9,200,000 / $2,300,000 = 4 times

Return on Investment = Margin * Turnover = 2.45% * 4 = 0.0980, or 9.80%

2. Compute the residual income (loss) for each division.

The formula for calculating this is:

Residual Income (loss) = Net Operating Income - Minimum Required Return * Average Operating Assets

Therefore, we have:

Division A's Residual Income (loss) = $317,200 - (15.00 % * $1,525,000) = $88,450

Division B's Residual Income (loss) = $929,200 - (18.40 % * $5,050,000) = $0

Division C's Residual Income (loss) = $225,400 - (12.00 % * $2,300,000) = ($50,600)

3. Assume that each division is presented with an investment opportunity that would yield a 17% rate of return.

3-a. If performance is being measured by ROI, which division or divisions will probably accept or reject the opportunity?

The decision criterion is for a division to accept the investment opportunity if its Return on Investment (ROI) is lower than 17%.

Based on the results in part 1 above, only Division C will accept the investment opportunity.

3-b. If performance is being measured by residual income, which division or divisions will probably accept the opportunity?

The decision criterion is for a division to accept the investment opportunity if its minimum required rate of return is lower than 17%.

Based on the information in the question, Divisions A and C will accept the investment opportunity.

One gift of $91,000 is restricted to pay the salaries of the entity's workers. One gift of $121,000 must be held forever with the income to be used to provide food for needy families. In the current year, income of $11,000 was earned but not spent. What is the increase in the current year in net assets with donor restrictions

Answers

Answer: $294,000

Explanation:

Gift of $71,000 is time restricted as it cannot be spent for 4 years.

Gift of $91,000 is purpose restricted as it must be used for the purpose of salaries.

Gift of $121,000 is permanently restricted as it must be held forever.

Income earned from the above gift of $11,000 is purpose restricted for needy families.

The gifts with donor restrictions total:

= 71,000 + 91,000 + 121,000 + 11,000

Therefore,

1000 = 150000/ Contribution per unit

Contribution per Unit will now be:

= 150000 / 1000

= 150

It should be noted that after the break even point, every unit sold will lead to an increase in the contribution per unit to the net operating income. Therefore, the amount that'll be contributed to net operating income by the 2,001st unit sold is $150.

If sales are $822,000, variable costs are 79% of sales, and operating income is $244,000, what is the contribution margin ratio? a.75% b.25% c.21% d.79%

Answers

Answer:

c.21%

Explanation:

The computation of the contribution margin ratio is shown below

Sales is $822,000

Variable cost ratio 79% of sales

So,  

Variable cost (79% of $822,000 ) $649,380

Now contribution margin is

= Sales - variable cost

= $822,000 - $649,380

= $172,620

Now

Contribution margin ratio is

= Contribution ÷ Sales × 100  

= $172,620  ÷ $822,000 × 100

= 21%

Therefore the option c is correct
