The accountant preparing the financial statements has asked you to provide the fair value as of the end of the year for the investments. Present the information as it would be shown on the financial statements. Last year, The Wellington Company reported costs of $68,000 in trading investments and $82,000 in available-for-sale investments. Refer to the journal entries shown on The Wellington Company panel. Assume that all investments sold during this year were trading investments and that purchases during the year were new investments.

1. Select the correct label for each line and fill in the amount. In classifying the investments, choose a categorization which seems most likely, given the pattern of transactions in the journal entries. Enter all amounts as positive numbers.

Section 8.1 Expanded: Constructing the nonlinear profit contribution expression

Let PS and PD represent the prices charged for each standard golf bag and deluxe golf bag respectively. Assume that “S” and “D” are demands for standard and deluxe bags respectively.

S = 2250 – 15PS                                                                                                                                                  (8.1)

D = 1500 – 5PD                                                                                                                                                   (8.2)

Revenue generated from the sale of S number of standard bags is PS*S. Cost per unit production is $70 and the cost for producing S number of standard bags is 70*S.

So the profit for producing and selling S number of standard bags = revenue – cost = PSS – 70S                      (8.3)

By rearranging 8.1 we get                            

15PS = 2250 – S or

                                PS = 2250/15 – S/15 or

                                PS = 150 – S/15                                                                                                                                                  (8.3a)

Substituting the value of PS from 8.3a in 8.3 we get the profit contribution of the standard bag:

                                (150 –S/15)S – 70S = 150S – S2/15 – 70S = 80S – S2/15                                                                      (8.4)

Revenue generated from the sale of D number of deluxe bags is PD*D. Cost per unit production is $150 and the cost for producing D number of deluxe bags is 150*D.

So the profit for producing and selling D number of deluxe bags = revenue – cost = PDD – 150D                     (8.4a)

By rearranging 8.2 we get                            

5PD = 1500 – D or

                                PD = 1500/5 – D/5 or

                                PD = 300 – D/5                                                                                                                                                   (8.4b)

Substituting the value of PD from 8.4b in 8.4a we get the profit contribution of the deluxe bags:

                                (300 -D/5)D – 150D = 300D – D2/5 – 150D = 150D – D2/5                                                                 (8.4c)

By adding 8.4 and 8.4c we get the total profit contribution for selling S standard bags and D deluxe bags.

                                Total profit contribution = 80S –S2/15 + 150D – D2/5                                                                         (8.5)

Homework assignment:

Reconstruct new objective function for 8.5 by changing “15PS” to “8PS” in 8.1, “5PD” to “10PD” in 8.2, cost per unit standard bag from 70 to “70+last two digits of your UTEP student ID” and cost per unit deluxe bag from 150 to 125. Keep other parameter values unchanged. Use up to 2 decimal points accuracy. Substitute your new expression for 8.5 in the excel solver workbook as explained in the class and solve for the optimal combination values for S and D. Submit the printout from the excel solution in either March 02, 2019 or March 4, 2020 class. Instructor will not accept any homework late or submitted outside the class. Make sure you submit the results (just one page excel printout). Write/type your full name (first name first) in upper case, last 4 of your UTEP student ID, and, your new objective function expression (like equation 8.5 above) on the printout. Use S and D instead of b15 or c15 in writing the formulation. If you fail to follow the instructions, you will lose points.

Your firm designs training materials for computer training classes, and you have just received a request...

  1. Your firm designs training materials for computer training classes, and you have just received a request to bid on a contract to produce a complete set of training manuals for an 8-session class. From previous experience, you know that your firm follows an 85% learning rate. For this contract, it appears that the effort will be substantial, running 50 hours for the first session. Your firm bills at the rate of $100/hour and the overhead is expected to run a fixed $600 per session. The customer will pay you a flat fixed rate per session (Per Session Price.) If your profit markup is 20%, what will be the Total Price, the Per Session Price, and at what session will you break even?

Answer the following three questions:

  1. What is the Total Price? This is what you would charge the customer so that you can have your profit markup of 20% over all of your costs. To calculate this, first figure out your cost per each session, add them up, and then add your profit.
  2. What is the Per Session Price? This is the revenue that the customer pays you each time you complete a session. It is calculated by dividing the Total Price by the number of sessions.
  3. What is the Break Even Point? At the beginning, your cost per session is more than your revenue per session. Gradually, your cumulative revenue matches the cumulative cost, and eventually exceeds it so that you can end up with the desired profit. The break-even point is the session at which, for the first time, your revenue exceeds your cost.
  1. A manufacturing firm has set up a project for developing a new machine for one of its production lines. The most likely estimated cost of the project itself is $1 million, but the most optimistic estimate is $900,000 while the pessimists predict a project cost of $1,200,000. The real problem is that even if the project costs are within those limits, if the project itself plus its implementation cost exceed 1,425,000, the project will not meet the firm’s NPV hurdle. There are four cost categories involved in adding the prospective new machine to the production line: (1) engineering labor cost, (2) non-engineering labor cost, (3) assorted materials cost, and (4) production line down-time cost.

The engineering labor requirement has been estimated to be 600 hours, plus or minus 15% at a cost of $80 per hour. The non-engineering labor requirement is estimated to be 1500 hrs., but could be as low as 1200 hrs. or as high as 2200 hrs. at a cost of $35 per hour. Assorted material may run as high as $155,000 or as low as $100,000 but is most likely to be about $135,000. The best guess of time lost on the production line is 110 hours, possibly as low as 105 hours and as high as 120 hours. The line contributes about $500 per hour to the firms profit and overhead. What is the probability that the new machine project will meet the firm’s NPV hurdle? Use Crystal Ball simulation to answer the question.
