Due to customer no-shows, the Inn at Charlotte hotel is considering implementing overbooking. The Inn at Charlotte has 150 rooms

, and the full fare is $200. The forecast of no-shows is normally distributed with a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 3. The Inn is sensitive about the quality of service, so it estimates that cost of failing to honor a reservation is $325 in lost goodwill and explicit expenses. What is the unit underage cost if the Inn underestimates the number of no-shows

Answer:

The unit=9

Explanation:

The Cost of underage Cu= price -cost =200-0 =200 ( as there is no variable cost of the unsold room)

Cost of overage Co= cost - salvage value = 0 -(-325) =325

Service level = Cu / Cu+Co = 200/ 325+200 = 0.3809

which corresponds to the z value of -0.3

the optimum overbooking = mean + z x SD

= 10+ 3 x (-0.3) =9

fiasKO [112]

The equity cost of capital for the Jumbuck Exploration is 22%

Explanation:

Equity cost refers to the return offered to the customers in place of their investment in the organisation stocks. It is calculated by the formula

Rₐ = (D₁/P₀)+g

Where Rₐ= cost of equity

D₁= dividends announced

P₀=share price (current)

g= growth rate

Now given details-

Dividend announced (D₁)- $ 0.26

Current market price (P₀) - $ 2.00

Expected price= $ 2.10

growth rate= expected price- current price

growth rate (g) =$ 0.10

Putting the values to find Rₐ

Rₐ=(0.26/2.00)+0.10

Rₐ=0.23 or 23%

Nearest answer is 22%

Hence the equity cost of the capital is 22%

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Option C-$172.50

Option C,($190,000)is correct

Explanation:

Target cost=competitive market price-target operating profit

competitive market price is $230

target operating profit is 25% of selling price=$230*25%=$57.50

target cost=$230-$57.50=$172.50

Current operating income =($270-$210)*5000=$300,000

new operating income=($230-$210)*(5000*110%)

                                      =$20*5500=$110,000

The new operating is $110,000 from $300,000 recorded earlier,in a nutshell ,the operating income would reduce by $190,000($300,000-$110,000)

Option C is the correct answer

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Effective accounting tax rate =  17.61%

Explanation:

given data

Pre Tax book income = $1,026,000

Reserve for warranties = $101,300

Tax depreciation = $206,500

Deduction inform of dividends received = $55,200

to find out

accounting effective tax rate

solution

we assume here tax rate is 21 %

So Taxable income will be here as  

Taxable income = [ $1,026,000 + $101,300 ] - [ $206,500 + $55,200 ]

Taxable income = $1,127,300 - $261,700

Taxable income = $865,600

Tax @21% = $865,600 × 21%

Tax  = $181,776

Effective accounting tax rate will be

Effective accounting tax rate = \frac{181776}{1026000}  

Effective accounting tax rate =  17.61%
