What is the total amount of traceable fixed manufacturing overhead for the Alpha product line and for the Beta product line? |
|
2. |
What is the company’s total amount of common fixed expenses? |

Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 100,000 Alphas during the current year. One of Cane's sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 30,000 additional Alphas for a price of $160 per unit. If Cane accepts the customer’s offer, how much will its profits increase or decrease? |
|
4. |
Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 110,000 Betas during the current year. One of Cane’s sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 2,000 additional Betas for a price of $83 per unit. If Cane accepts the customer’s offer, how much will its profits increase or decrease? |

Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 115,000 Alphas during the current year. One of Cane's sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 30,000 additional Alphas for a price of $160 per unit. If Cane accepts the customer’s offer, it will decrease Alpha sales to regular customers by 14,000 units. |

Parker Products manufactures a variety of household products.
The company is considering introducing a new detergent. The
company's CFO has collected the following information about the
proposed product. (Note: You may or may not need to use
all of this information, use only the information that is
relevant.)
|
· |
The project has an anticipated economic life of 4 years. |
|
· |
The company will have to purchase a new machine to produce the detergent. The machine has an up-front cost (t = 0) of $2 million. The machine will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over 4 years (that is, the company's depreciation expense will be $500,000 in each of the first four years (t = 1, 2, 3, and 4). The company anticipates that the machine will last for four years, and that after four years, its salvage value will equal zero. |
|
· |
If the company goes ahead with the proposed product, it will have an effect on the company's net operating working capital. At the outset, t = 0, inventory will increase by $440,000 and accounts payable will increase by $140,000. At t = 4, the net operating working capital will be recovered after the project is completed. |
|
· |
The detergent is expected to generate sales revenue of $2 million the first year (t = 1), $3 million the second year (t = 2), $4 million the third year (t = 3), and $4 million the final year (t = 4). Each year the operating costs (not including depreciation) are expected to equal 60 percent of sales revenue. |
|
· |
The company's interest expense each year will be $400,000. |
|
· |
The new detergent is expected to reduce the after-tax cash flows of the company's existing products by $200,000 a year (t = 1, 2, 3, and 4). |
|
· |
The company's overall WACC is 10 percent. However, the proposed project is riskier than the average project for Parker; the project's WACC is estimated to be 12 percent. |
|
· |
The company's tax rate is 40 percent. |
Estimate the project net cash flows. Make sure to put the cash
flows in order: CF0 in blank 1, CF1 in Blank 2, CF2 in Blank 3,
etc. Round it to a whole dollar, and do not include the $
sign.

In manufacturing, does worker productivity drop on Friday? In an
effort to determine whether it does, a company’s personnel
department randomly selects from a manufacturing plant five workers
who make the same part. They measure their output on Wednesday and
again on Friday and obtain the following results.
| Worker | Wednesday Output | Friday Output |
| 1 | 72 | 53 |
| 2 | 56 | 47 |
| 3 | 75 | 52 |
| 4 | 67 | 55 |
| 5 | 74 | 55 |
They use α = 0.05 and assume the difference in
productivity is normally distributed. Do the samples provide enough
evidence to show that productivity drops on Friday?
Round the intermediate values to 3 decimal places.
Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

Shanks Corporation is considering a capital budgeting project that involves investing $600,000 in equipment that would have a useful life of 3 years and zero salvage value. The company would also need to invest $20,000 immediately in working capital which would be released for use elsewhere at the end of the project in 3 years. The net annual operating cash inflow, which is the difference between the incremental sales revenue and incremental cash operating expenses, would be $300,000 per year. The project would require a one-time renovation expense of $60,000 at the end of year 2. The company uses straight-line depreciation and the depreciation expense on the equipment would be $200,000 per year. Assume cash flows occur at the end of the year except for the initial investments. The company takes income taxes into account in its capital budgeting. The income tax rate is 35%. The after-tax discount rate is 15%.

Performance Tires plans to engage in direct mail advertising. It is currently in negotiations to purchase a mailing list of the names of people who bought sports cars within the last three years. The owner of the mailing list claims that sales generated by contacting names on the list will more than pay for the cost of using the list. (Typically, a company will not sell its list of contacts, but rather provides the mailing services. For example, the owner of the list would handle addressing and mailing catalogs.)
Before it is willing to pay the asking price of $3 per name, the company obtains a sample of 225 names and addresses from the list in order to run a small experiment. It sends a promotional mailing to each of these customers. The data for this exercise show the gross dollar value of the orders produced by this experimental mailing. The company makes a profit of 20% of the gross dollar value of a sale. For example, an order for $100 produces $20 in profit.
Should the company agree to the asking price?
this is one part of the question i am stuck on the other 3 parts i did already
How is the certainty of your decision dependent on the number of names in the sample list? How would, for example, doubling the number of sample names change the certainty of your decision?
