Tara Inc. is considering using stocks of an old raw material in a special project. The special project would require all 160 kil

ograms of the raw material that are in stock and that originally cost the company $1,136 in total. If the company were to buy new supplies of this raw material on the open market, it would cost $7.25 per kilogram. However, the company has no other use for this raw material and would sell it at the discounted price of $6.50 per kilogram if it were not used in the special project. The sale of the raw material would involve delivery to the purchaser at a total cost of $75.00 for all 160 kilograms. What is the relevant cost of the 160 kilograms of the raw material when deciding whether to proceed with the special project?

Answer:

The relevant cost of the 160 kilograms is $965

Explanation:

In deciding whether to proceed with the special project, the relevant cost of the is the total disposal value of the old stock less the cost of delivery to purchaser at $75.

The open market price is not relevant as the raw materials is not being used and needs not be replenished when it is exhausted.

The original cost of $1,136 to the company is not also relevant as it is a sunk cost.

Hence the relevant cost of the 160 kilograms is computed thus:

($6.50*160)-$75=$965

Sphinxa [80]
<span>$322,970 The expression for the cash balance at the end of the month is B = I + R - P where B = Balance at the end of the month. I = Initial balance at the beginning of the month. R = Receipts received during the month. P = Payments made during the month. So let's substitute the known values we have and solve for P B = I + R - P 95230 = 72600 + 345600 - P 95230 = 418200 - P 95230 + P = 418200 P = 322970 So the cash payments made were $322,970</span>

harkovskaia [24]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Direct material = 4 × 33300 = Make $133200 ; Net income increase

Direct labor = 5 × 33300 = Make $166500 ; Net income increase

Variable costing= 0.61 × $166500 = Make $101565 ; Net income increase

Fixed manufacturing = Make 43100 ; Buy 43100 ;

Purchase price = 13.16 × 33300 = Buy $438228 ; Net income decrease

Total annual cost:

Make: $444365

Buy: $481328

Net income decrease = $36963

b. No, Pottery Ranch should not buy the finials. There's an incremental cost of $36963.

c. Incremental revenue = $50,367

Incremental cost = $36963

Incremental revenue = $50367 - $36963 = $13404

In this case, it should be bought.

ipn [44]

The computation of the amount of bond issuance is shown below:

= Raise capital + attorney cost - underwriter spread

= $2,000,000 + $150,000 - 3% of $2,150,000

= $2,150,000 - 3% of $2,150,000

= $2,150,000 - $64,500

= $2,085,500

Hence, the amount of bond issuance is $2,085,500
