Poma Manufacturing Corporation has a traditional costing system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to its products using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours (DLHs). The company has two products, R78S and N32Y, about which it has provided the following data:

The company's estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year is $1,427,040 and the company's estimated total direct labor-hours for the year is 24,000.

The company is considering using a variation of activity-based costing to determine its unit product costs for external reports. Data for this proposed activity-based costing system appear below:

The unit product cost of product N32Y under the activity-based costing system is closest to:

A: $136.16

B: $136.00

C: $76.70

D: $59.30

PLEASE HELP! Even if you could just explain the process for just one of them that would be helpful. I assume once you get the first one the other ones should follow the same method of solving. I would really appreciate anyone's help as soon as possible.

WACC and Optimal Capital Structure

F. Pierce Products Inc. is considering changing its capital structure. F. Pierce currently has no debt and no preferred stock, but it would like to add some debt to take advantage of low interest rates and the tax shield. Its investment banker has indicated that the pre-tax cost of debt under various possible capital structures would be as follows:

* Use the exact value of 2/3 in your calculations.

F. Pierce uses the CAPM to estimate its cost of common equity, r_s and at the time of the analaysis the risk-free rate is 7%, the market risk premium is 6%, and the company's tax rate is 35%. F. Pierce estimates that its beta now (which is "unlevered" because it currently has no debt) is 1.25. Based on this information, what is the firm's optimal capital structure, and what would be the weighted average cost of capital at the optimal capital structure? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Debt:   %
Equity:   %
WACC:   %

1.Figure out the M² measure for Fund A and B

2.Figure out the best fund based on the information ratio

Use the following table.

3.Figure out your portfolio return and the total extra return.

4.Figure out the contribution of security/sector selection.

We have a bond with a coupon rate of 12% paid annually, 3 years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and the yield to maturity of 1$0%.

5.Figure out the duration of the bond.

6.You believe that the Fed is about to increase interest rates by 60 basis points (0.6%). Figure out the percentage change in the bond price using the duration. (If you cannot figure out the duration above, please use a duration of 3.)

Kaelea, Inc., has no debt outstanding and a total market value of $90,000. Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT, are projected to be $8,000 if economic conditions are normal. If there is strong expansion in the economy, then EBIT will be 20 percent higher. If there is a recession, then EBIT will be 30 percent lower. The company is considering a $34,000 debt issue with an interest rate of 6 percent. The proceeds will be used to repurchase shares of stock. There are currently 3,600 shares outstanding. Assume the company has a market-to-book ratio of 1.0.

a. Calculate return on equity, ROE, under each of the three economic scenarios before any debt is issued, assuming no taxes.

b. Calculate the percentage changes in ROE when the economy expands or enters a recession, assuming no taxes.

Assume the firm goes through with the proposed recapitalization and no taxes.
c. Calculate return on equity, ROE, under each of the three economic scenarios after the recapitalization.

d. Calculate the percentage changes in ROE for economic expansion and recession.

Assume the firm has a tax rate of 35 percent.
e. Calculate return on equity, ROE, under each of the three economic scenarios before any debt is issued. Also, calculate the percentage changes in ROE for economic expansion and recession.

f. Calculate return on equity, ROE, under each of the three economic scenarios after the recapitalization. Also, calculate the percentage changes in ROE for economic expansion and recession, assuming the firm goes through with the proposed recapitalization.

7. OR. If you prefer, calculate Proj_CS(A)b using the approach of Example 8 on page 266 instead. You should get an infinite number of solutions for x to the normal equation. Any solution for x will work, and then calculate Ax to get Proj_CS(A)
   • For either approach, briefly explain why Proj_CS(A)b is the closest vector in your plane to the vector (See Theorem 5.15 if needed.)
8. Choose 5 arbitrary unique vectors in R² that are not on the same line or scalar multiples of each other. What are your 5 vectors in R²?
   • Use normal equations (see page 265, if needed) to determine the equation of the least square regression line for this set of 5 points.
9. Choose any 2 of the 5 vectors in the above problem that will form a nonstandard basis for R², which we will call B’. (12 points for entire problem)
   • What are your two vectors in B’?
   • If B is the standard basis for R² (I.e. B ={(1.0). (0.1)}, determine the transition matrix (called P^-1 in our text) from B to B’.
   • Use P^-1 to calculate the coordinates for (1,5) with respect to the basis B’.
10. Investigate the following linear differential equation: y’’ + 4y = 0; Solutions {sin(2x), cos(2x)}

• Verify that each solution satisfies the differential equation.
• Use the Wronskian to verify that the solution set is linearly independent.
• Write the general solution of the differential equation.

Suppose you have an electric hot water heater for your house which is an aluminum cylinder which has a 0.56 m radius and is 2 m high. The walls are 1.0 cm thick. The thermal conductivity of Aluminum is 217 W/(m K). Assume that the temperature of the hot water inside the hot water heater is kept at a constant 90 C, and the external temperature is 27 C.

Part A:

What is the surface area of the cylinder?

Part B:

How much energy is lost through the walls of the hot water heater in one week? (Assume thinner surface of the heater is 90 C and the outer surface is 27 C.)

Part C:

Assume you pay $0.10 per kW-hour for electricity. How much would it cost just to keep the hot water inside the heater for one week?

Part D:

Suppose that you wrap the hot water heater on all sides with a 10 cm thick blanket of fiberglass insulation which has a thermal conductivity of 0.04 W/(m K). Assume the inner surface of the fiberglass insulation is at 90 C and the outer surface is at 27 C, and the total surface area is still what you calculated in part A.

Part E:

Assume you pay $0.10 per kW-hour for electricity. How much would it cost just to keep the hot water inside the fiberglass-wrapped heater for one week?

A wing-body model is tested in a wind tunnel with a flow of 100 m/s at standard sea-level conditions.

The wing area is 1.5 m^2 and the mean aerodynamic chord length is 0.45 m. Measurements of lift force, L, and moment about the center of gravity, MCG are made using the wind tunnel force balance.

The lead mass is removed and a horizontal tail without an elevator is added to the model. The distance from the airplane center of gravity to the aerodynamic center of the tail is 1.0 m.

The area of the tail is 0.4 m2 and the tail-setting angle is -2.0°. The tail has a lift-curve slope of 0.12 per degree. Experimental measurements give the downwash in terms of angle of attack, ε = α 0.42 , i.e. the downwash is zero for zero angle of attack, 0
ε = 0

For the case where the angle of attack, α = 5.0°, and the lift, L= 4134 N:

(i) Calculate MCG
(ii) Determine whether the model possesses longitudinal static stability. Calculate Mo
(iii) Calculate the location of the neutral point and the static margin if h = 0.26.
(iv) An elevator is added to the horizontal tail with the property / 0.04 L E T
∂ ∂ = C δ per degree.

In two ways calculate the elevator deflection angle required to trim the aircraft at an angle of attack of 8.0°. Answer should be the same.
