Over the last 50 years the financial reporting systems have dramatically changed and will continue to change as the financial world faces changes such as globalization, changing regulations and the increased use of technology. The accounting profession must be ready to not only face these changes but to also adapt to them, providing relevant and reliable information to the many internal and external users of financial and managerial accounting reports.

Perform an incremental analysis of the two finalist projects using the data provided below.

The company uses a MARR of 10% and depreciates its assets using 7-year MACRS. The company’s effective income tax rate is 25%.

Project 1: Milling machines Equipment cost: Two (2) machines that each cost $380,000 including trade-in allowance and sales tax. The total cost of the freight and handling is expected to be $25,000. The total cost to install the machines is $30,000. Total testing and startup costs to place the machines into service are estimated to be $32,000. Useful life: 8 years. It is estimated that the machines can be sold for a total of $105,000 at the end of the project.

Each machine requires one operator at a time at a rate of $32.00 per hour. The plant operates 4080 hours per year. Total maintenance labor costs are estimated to be 20% of operating hours at $22.00 per hour. Total annual direct materials are estimated at $290,000. Manufacturing overhead exclusive of depreciation is expected to be an additional $270,000 per year.

Revenues are expected to be $1,025,000 each year as a result of this project. The project would run for 8 years.

Project 2: Painting Line Equipment cost: $315,000 including trade-in allowance and sales tax. The total cost for freight and handling is expected to be $15,000. The total cost to install the line is $35,000. Testing and startup costs to place the line in service are estimated to be $24,000. Useful life: 8 years. It is estimated that the line can be sold for a total of $70,000 at the end of the project.

The line requires one operator at a time a rate of $30.00 per hour and one helper at a time at a rate of $19.75 per hour. The plant operates 4080 hours per year. Total annual direct materials are estimated at $150,000. Maintenance labor costs are estimated to be 20% of operating hours at $19.00 per hour. Manufacturing overhead exclusive of depreciation is expected to be $220,000 per year.

Revenues are expected to be $635,000 for the first year as a result of the project and are expected to increase by 2% each year throughout the project. The project would run for 8 years.

Market Planning, Inc., a marketing research firm, has obtained the prescription sales data in the table below for n = 20 independent pharmacies.

These variables can be described precisely as follows:

y = average weekly prescription sales over the past year (in units of $1000)

x₁ = floor space (in square feet)

x₂= percent of floor space allocated to the prescription department

x₃ = number of parking spaces available for the store

x₄ = monthly per capita income for the surrounding community (in units of $100)

x₅ is an independent variable that equals 1 if the pharmacy is located in a shopping center and equals 0 otherwise (x₅ is called a dummy variable)

a. Output the stepwise regression of the data in this exercise. Set, both alpha_entry and alpha_stay equal to .15. What is the final model arrived at by stepwise regression?

b. Perform a backward elimination procedure on the same data. Describe the order in which the independent variables are removed by the backward elimination procedure.

c. Is the model arrived at by backward elimination the same as the model arrived at by stepwise regression?

The average temperatures (°F) for an 8-day period are: 32,35,34,36,48,43,42, and 40. If the area has an initial SWE of 2.46 in, K=0.06in/deg-day, and a runoff coefficient of CR = 0.5, plot the estimated daily runoff (in) from the watershed and determine the total melt and runoff for the 8-day period.
