Last year, Dora, Inc. produced 70,000 widgets and incurred $210,000 of variable costs and $196,000 of fixed costs. Dora has received a special order from a foreign customer for 3,000 widgets. Dora has sufficient capacity to fill the order without jeopardizing regular sales. Dora would incur $3,150 in additional shipping charges to fulfill this special order. If Dora wants to break even on this order, what should the unit selling price be:A : $4.05
B : $6.85
C : $5.80
D : $3.00

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

B : $6.85

Explanation:

Because Dora, Inc. has enough capacity to fill the special order in excess of regular sales volume, the fixed cost of its remain unchanged at $196,000.

Widget variable cost per unit of Dora is 210,000/70,000 = $3

To break even on the special order, the respective total sales amount  has to cover all related cost, including allocated fixed cost, variable cost as well as additional shipping charges. Putting all the numbers together, we have:

3,000 x P - 196,000 x (3,000/73,000) - 3 x 3,000 - 3,150 = 0 with P is the selling price.

Solve the equation we get P = 6.73. Option answer A,C or D will result in loss for this special order. So, the suitable answer is B.

For all other assets and liabilities, book value and fair value were equal. Any excess of costover fair value was attributed to goodwill, which has not been impaired.

What is the amount of goodwill associated with the investment?

Answers

Answer:

Amount of goodwill associated with the investment is $500,000

Explanation:

The first step is to calculate the total value of GainsvilleCo:

Total Value of GainsvilleCo  = 2,500,000 / 25% = $10,000,000

Book value of GainsvilleCo's underlying assets = $8,000,000

Goodwill = 10,000,000 - 8,000,000 = 2,000,000

Austin Corp Investor share = 25% of 2,000,000 = $500,000

Comparing Costs of Credit Using Three Calculation Methods. You have been pricing a compact disk player in several stores. Three stores have the identical price of $300. Each store charges 18 percent APR, has a 30-day grace period, and sends out bills on the first of the month. On further investigation, you find that store A calculates the finance charge by using the average daily balance method, store B uses the adjusted balance method, and store C uses the previous balance method. Assume you purchased the disk player on May 5 and made a $100 payment on June 15. What will the finance charge be if you made your purchase from store A? From store B? From store C? (Obj. 2)

Answers

Answer:

Store A = 3.4521

Store B = 2.9589

Store C =  4.4384

Explanation:

Store A charges ADB method

purchase made on 5th first payment on 15th of 100

so from 5th to 15th Average daily balance =300 for 10 days

then from 15th to 4th for remaining 20 days average daily balance = 200

Average Daily Balance = (300*10+200*20)/30

Total finance charge = ADB*(APR*(Days/365))

=300*((0.18)*(10/365))+200*((0.18)*(20/365))

= 1.4795+1.9726=3.4521

Store B

Adjusted Balance Method uses adjusted balance to calculate the charges

Adjusted balance=Starting balance adjusted for credit and debit

Adjusted balance =300-100=200

Financial Charges = 200*(.18*(30/365))=2.9589

Store C

Previous Balance Method the interest is calculated on amount of balance carried from previous billing cycle

Balance Carried = 300

Charges =300*(.18*(30/365))= 4.4384

Answer:

Store A finance charge = $140.625

Store B finance charge = $90

Store C finance charge = $202.5

Explanation:

Store A

Average daily balance                            Finance Charge

(300*200)/2 = $250                              3.75(250*0.15) = $140.625

Store B

Adjusted balance method

(300-100) = $200                                    3.00*(200*0.15) = $90

Store C

Previous balance method      

300 - 0 = $300                                        4.50(300*0.15) = $202.5
