1. Tickets for the school play cost $5 for students and $8 for adults. On opening night, all 360 seats were filled, and the box office revenues were $2610. How many student and how many adult tickets were sold?

2. A $76,000 trust is to be invested in bonds paying 8%, CDs paying 7%, and mortgages paying 10%. The bond and CD investment must equal the mortgage investment. To earn a $6670 annual income from the investments, how much should the bank invest in bonds?

3. Suppose that Janine desires 46 grams of protein and 38 grams of dietary fiber daily. One serving of kidney beans has 8 grams of protein and 6 grams of dietary fiber. One serving of refried pinto beans has 6 grams of protein and 6 grams of dietary fiber. If a serving of kidney beans costs $0.45 and a serving of refried pinto beans costs $0.35, then how many servings of each should Janine eat to minimize cost and still meet her requirements?

2. Calculate the value of a periodic inventory using the four cost methods:

          Assume the beginning inventory as of January 1 consisted of 500 units that were purchased for $8.25 each. During the month, three new purchases were made. The first purchase consisted of 700 units costing $8.50 each, the second purchase had 800 units costing $9.00 each, and the third purchase had 600 units costing $9.50 each.  

Units              Cost per Unit                      

Beg. inventory, January 1             500                 @ $8.25

First purchase                                  700                 @ $8.50

Second purchase                             800                 @ $9.00

Third purchase                                 600                 @ $9.50

Total                                               2,600              

At the end of the month, ending inventory shows 700 units.

Compute the following for each of the methods:

1. Cost of goods sold

2. The cost of ending inventory

a. Specific identification: Of the units sold, 300 were from the beginning inventory, 600 from the first purchase, 700 from the second purchase, and 300 from the third purchase.   (Show your work)

Nona Sports is considering the purchase of new production equipment. The equipment will cost $135,000. It has an expected useful of life of 5 years, but will require refurbishing at the end of 3 years. The refurbishment will cost $5,000. The estimated salvage value at the end of the useful life is $10,000. The increased annual net income from the equipment is projected to be $40,000. Using a hurdle rate of 12%, calculate the NPV for the equipment.

Sirius has decided to acquire a new equipment at a cost of $748,000. The equipment has an expected life of 6 years and will be depreciated using 5-year MACRS with rates of .20, .32, .192, .1152, .1152, and .0576 (note that 5-year MACRS depreciation actually takes place over 6 years). There is no actual salvage value. Travis Capital has offered to lease the equipment to Sirius for $153,000 a year for 6 years, with lease payment at the end of each year. Sirius has a cost of equity of 11 percent, a pre-tax cost of debt of 7 percent, and a marginal tax rate of 25 percent. Should Sirius lease or buy?
