Consider two products, X and Y, that have identical cost, retail price, and demand parameters and the same short selling season

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: b. stocking quantity of product B is higher.

Explanation:

We are using the Newsvendor model and are told that the products have identical cost, retail price, and demand parameters and the same short selling season.

Using this model, it is important to understand 2 terminologies for this question, Overage cost and Underage costs.

Overage Costs is the cost of unused inventor and is calculated by subtracting Salvage Value from the cost price.

Underage costs are costs arising from unmet Demand. In this scenario they are the same because both products share the same demand.

The Overage costs for the products are,

Overage cost for Product X =100-75

=25%

Overage cost for Product Y = 20%

When deciding which product to stick more of we look at the one with the higher CRITICAL RATIO.

The formula of which is,

= Cu/(Cu+Co)

Where,

Cu is the Underage cost,

Co is the Overage cost

As earlier mentioned, both have the same Underage cost meaning that B will give a higher CRITICAL ratio as it's Co is smaller.

Product B should therefore be stocked more than Product A.

In 2016, Chaya Corporation, an accrual basis, calendar year taxpayer, provided services to clients andearned $25,000. The client

Artemon [7]

Answer:

$27,333.33

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of income reported is shown below:

= Provided services to the customer + Payment received × number of months ÷ given number of months

= $25,000 + $12,000 × 7 months ÷ 36 months

= $25,000 + $2,333.33

= $27,333.33

The seven months is calculated from the June 1 to December 31. We assume the books are closed on December 31

When a furniture manufacturer buys the lumber and other raw materials, machines and equipment, manufacturing supplies, and offic

boyakko [2]

Answer:

Procurement

Explanation:

The process of "procurement" refers to purchasing the goods and services that will be used in the company's business. This gives the company the ability to choose where and from whom they will buy their supplies. This allows "fairness" and promotes<em> competition. </em>

The act of buying lumber and raw materials by the furniture manufacturer, including its machines, equipment, manufacturing supplies and office supplies belong to the process of procurement. Companies set their <u>own procurement policies</u> in order to ensure that<em> it aligns with the interest of the public.</em>

So, this explains the answer.

Peachtree Company borrows $30,000 from the local bank at 7% interest. The term of the note is five years, and the annual payment

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Here, in this question, we are asked to determine the decrease in notes payable that peachtree should record in the first year.

To determine this, we proceed as follows;

Interest payment for the first year = 30000*7% i.e 2100

Principal amount paid = Total amount paid - Interest amount

= 7317 -2100 i.e 5217

Notes payable should be reduced by 5217

g100num [7]

Complete question:

Assume that your uncle holds just one stock, East Coast Bank (ECB), which he thinks has very little risk. You agree that the stock is relatively safe, but you want to demonstrate that his risk would be even lower if he were more diversified. You obtain the following returns data for West Coast Bank (WCB). Both banks have had less variability than most other stocks over the past 5 years.

Year ECB WCB

2004 40.00% 40.00%

2005 -10.00% 15.00%

2006 35.00% -5.00%

2007 -5.00% -10.00%

2008 15.00% 35.00%

a. What is the expected return and risk of each stock?

b. Measured by the standard deviation of returns, by how much would your uncle's risk have been reduced if he had held a portfolio consisting of 60% in ECB and the remainder in WCB? In other words, what is the difference between portfolio's standard deviation and weighted average of components' standard deviations? (Hint: check the example on page 11-12 on my note).

Solution:

The estimated return of the stock is the average profit.

So the average of ECB is (40-10+35-5+15)/5

= $\frac{75 percent}{5}$

= 15% expected return

WCB expected return = 40+15-5-10+35

= $\frac{75 percent}{5}$

= 15%

They've had the same planned return.

This is generally defined in the Greek letter Mu, (U) A weighted average may also be used to calculate portfolio volatility.

Standard deviation of ECB is $\sqrt{{ sum [(x-U)^2]/5}}$

so for ECB:

$(40-15)^2$ = $25^2$ =6.25%

$(-10-15)^2$ = $-35^2$ = 0.1225

$(35-15)^2$ = $20^2$ = 0.04

$(-5-15)^2$ = $-20^2$ = 0.04

$(15-15)^2$ =0

now 0.0625+0.1225+0.04+0.04+0=0.265

stdev= $\sqrt{(0.265/5)}$ = 0.23

So WCB is the same except in a different order to make things quick I'm only going to add the median again WCB=0.23

Then the 60/40 portfolio will be the "weighted average" of the returns.

portfolio returns

2004: (60%*40%)+(40%*40%) = 40%

2005: (60%*-10%)+(40%*15%) = 0%

2006: (60%*35%)+(40%*-5%) = 19%

2007: (60%*-5%)+(40%*-10%) = -7%

2008:(60%*15%)+(40%*35%) = 23%

we have an average return of (40+19-7+23)/5 = 75/5 =15%

The estimated return of all combined stocks is a better way to do so.

we knew they both had expected returns of 15% so we can say

(60%*15%)+(40%*15%)=15% so the portfolio has an expected return of 15%

Now we do the standard deviation for the whole portfolio and get

$(40-15)^2$ = $25^2$ =6.25%

$(0-15)^2$ = - $25^2$ =6.25%

$(19-15)^2$ = $4^2$ = 0.16%

$(-7-15)^2$ = $-22^2$ = -4.84%

$(23-15)^2$ = $8^2$ = 0.64%

now add them up and get 9.78%

$\sqrt{(9.78%/5)}$ = 13.98%

Therefore, the normal portfolio variance is 13.98 per cent and the predicted portfolio return is 15 per cent.

Every stock has a standard deviation of 23 per cent and an average return of 15 per cent, meaning that the fund has the same estimated return but with less standard deviation. This ensures that the same gain is less costly. It's stronger than any of these products.
