V & T Faces, Inc., is a makeup company. They currently produce small plastic containers used to provide samples of the products. Management is interested in outsourcing the production of the plastic containers to a reputable manufacturing company that can supply the containers for $0.04 each. V & T Faces, Inc., incurs the following monthly production costs to produce 1,000,000 plastic containers internally:

Per unit Total monthly costs at 1,000,000 units
Variable production cost 0.02 20,000
Fixed production cost 25,000
Total production cost 45,000

If production is outsourced, all variable production costs and 70 percent of fixed production costs will be eliminated.

Required:

Perform differential analysis. Assume making the containers internally is Alternative 1 and buying the containers from an outside manufacturer is Alternative 2.

  • Which alternative is best? Explain.
  • Summarize the result of outsourcing production of the containers.
  • Assume all the facts of this problem remain the same. However, management of V & T Faces, Inc., has an opportunity to lease the space it currently uses to produce containers for $4,000 per month if production of the containers is outsourced. Determine if V & T Faces, Inc., would be better off outsourcing production.
  • Identify at least one qualitative factor that should be considered before management decides to outsource production of the containers.

A) Relying STRICTLY on our classroom discussion: the US corporate tax rate was recently reduced from 35% to 21%. In the near future, would you expect the target (optimal) D/V ratios of US companies to increase or decrease as the result of this change? (2-3 sentences)

B) What LEGISLATIVE change (i.e. a law or a regulation), if adopted, would most likely cause the target (optimal) D/V ratios of US companies to move in the OPPOSITE direction compared to the one you predicted in part (A)? (2-3 sentences)

C) Relying STRICTLY on our classroom discussion: Assume US personal tax rates on capital gains will be reduced next month. In the near future, would you expect the propensity to pay dividends among US companies to increase or decrease as the result of this change? (2-3 sentences)

D) The need for financial flexibility is sometimes used as explanation for the tendency of US firms to utilize LOWER D/V ratios compared to the (optimal) target ratios based on the trade-off between tax benefits and distress- or agency-related drawbacks associated with debt financing. Give one argument for why the need for financial flexibility is likely NOT the reason for relatively low D/V ratio utilized by Walmart. (2-3 sentences)

James has just jumped out of an airplane. After he opens his parachute he experiences 2 forces: the constant force of gravity, and a wind drag that is proportional to his velocity. His height may therefore follow the equation: d2h/dt2 = -9.8 - 2(dh/dt). As a second-order differential equation, this is not technically solvable by separation of variables. However, because the variable h appears only in its derivatives, we can turn this into a first-order equation, and solve that by separation.

a) Letting v = dh/dt, rewrite the above equation as a first-order differential equation in v.

b) Your equation in part a suggests that there is one velocity for which dv/dt = 0. What is this velocity?

c) Solve your equation using separation of variables. Your solution should contain an arbitrary constant: call it C1.

d) Calculate lim t to infinite v(t) and use it to describe what is physically happening to James after he's been in the air for a long time.

e) Now that you have a velocity function v(t), integrate it with respect to t to find a position function h(t). This will introduce a second constant C2.

f) Suppose James begins at a height of 3000m with no initial velocity, what is his height 3s later?

PYTHON Define a function named variousChanges(...) which receives one string (origst) (with letters, digits or special characters), possibly empty, and returns a new string containing the following.

a) in those positions where the original string has an even digit, the corresponding character in the new (returned) string should have the string digit '0'
b) in those positions where the original string has a vowel letter (upper or lower case), the new (returned) string should have the letter 'V'. Note that the vowels are : 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'
c) any other position in the new (returned) string should have a star ('*')

AND
d) at the end of the new string, there should be a number attached, which is the number of upper case letters in the original string.

For example,
variousChanges("A>e>X34S") should return the string "V*V***0*3" because:

'A' (in position 0) and 'e' (in position 2) are vowels --- so the new string has a 'V' in those positions
'4' (in position 6) is an even digit --- so the new string has a '0' in that position
all other positions have '*' in the new string
'A' , 'X' and 'S' are three upper case letters in the original string --- so the new string has a 3 at the end

How cold is it outside? The temperature alone is not enough to provide the answer. Other factors including wind speed, relative humidity, and sunshine play important roles in determining coldness outside. In 2001, the National Weather Service (NWS) implemented the new wind-chill temperature to measure the coldness using temperature and wind speed. The formula is:

twc = 35.74 + 0.6215ta - 35.75v0.16 + 0.4275tav0.16

t w c = 3.74 + 0.6215 t a − 35.75 v 0.16 + 0.4275 t a v 0.16

where ta is the outside temperature measured in degrees Fahrenheit, v is the speed measured in miles per hour, and twc is the wind-chill temperature. The formula cannot be used for wind speeds below 2mph or temperatures below -58°F or above 41°F.

Write a program that prompts the user to enter a temperature between -58°F and 41°F and a wind speed greater than or equal to 2 then displays the wind-chill temperature. Use Math.pow(a, b) to compute v0.16. Your class must be named Windchill. Here is a sample run:

Enter a temperature between -58°F and 41°F: 5.3
Enter the wind speed (>= 2) in miles per hour: 6
The wind chill index is -5.567068455881625

This is what I made:

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Windchill
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
//create Scanner
Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in);
double ta= 5.3;
int v= 6;
double v2= Math.pow(v,.16);
double Windchill= 35.74 + 0.6215 * ta-35.75 * v2+0.4275 * ta * v2;
//get temperature in Fahrenheit
System.out.println("Enter a temperature between -58°F and 41°F:" +" "+ ta);
//get wind speed
System.out.println("Enter the wind speed (>= 2) in miles per hour"+" "+ v);
//get windchill index
System.out.println("The windchill index is"+" "+ Windchill);
}
}

My teacher told me: "your program needs to let the user enter the temperature and wind speed at the keyboard."

How do I fix this? please help.

At year-end 2016, Wallace Landscaping’s total assets were $1.9 million, and its accounts payable were $335,000. Sales, which in 2016 were $2.0 million, are expected to increase by 30% in 2017. Total assets and accounts payable are proportional to sales, and that relationship will be maintained. Wallace typically uses no current liabilities other than accounts payable. Common stock amounted to $470,000 in 2016, and retained earnings were $340,000. Wallace has arranged to sell $80,000 of new common stock in 2017 to meet some of its financing needs. The remainder of its financing needs will be met by issuing new long-term debt at the end of 2017. (Because the debt is added at the end of the year, there will be no additional interest expense due to the new debt.) Its net profit margin on sales is 4%, and 35% of earnings will be paid out as dividends. What was Wallace's total long-term debt in 2016? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $ What were Wallace's total liabilities in 2016? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $ How much new long-term debt financing will be needed in 2017? (Hint: AFN - New stock = New long-term debt.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $
