The expected return is 17.5%. The expected return is determined as the weighted average of anticipated returns for each scenario, adjusted by their respective probabilities. The holding period returns (HPR) for three different scenarios are provided for calculations leading to the expected return.

Manager receives a forecast for next year. demand is projected to be 600 units for the first half of the year and 900 units for
marusya05 [3725]

A) For the first half of the year, the monthly demand averages to 560 / 6 = 93.33
Order size for the first six months can be calculated using: Sqrt(2 x A x O / C)
Where:
O is the cost of placing an order
C is the carrying cost per order
= Sqrt(2 x 93.33 x 55 / 2) = 71.65, rounded to 72
For the second half of the year, the monthly demand is 900 / 6 = 150
Order size for the second six months:
= Sqrt(2 x A x O / C)
= Sqrt(2 x 150 x 55 / 2)
= 90.83 or 91
B) For the first six months: Total monthly cost = (Q/2) x H + (d/Q) x S= (72 / 2) x 2 + (93.33 / 72) x 5 = $143.30 With a $10 discount, S = $ 55 - $10 = $ 45
Monthly TC at Q = 50 = (50/2) x 2 + (93.33 / 50)x 45 = $134.0 Monthly TC at Q = 100 = (100/2) x 2 + (93.33 / 100) x 45 = $142.00
Monthly TC at Q = 150 = (150/2) x 2 + (93.33 / 150) x 45 = $178.00
C)
Indeed, the manager should take advantage of this proposal and order Q = 50 units for the first six months. For the second six months, d = monthly demand = 900 / 6
= 150,

H = $2.00 for each unit monthly, S = $55, & EOQ = 91.
Calculating Monthly TC (Q = 91):
= (91/2) x 2 + (150/91) x 55
= $181.66
Monthly TC (Q = 50):= (50/2)x2 + (150/50)x 45= $185 Monthly TC (Q = 100) = (100/2) x 2 + (150/100) x 45= $167.50
Monthly TC (Q = 150)= (150/2) x 2 + (150/150) x 45= $195

On April 24 of the current year, The Memphis Pecan Company experienced a tornado that destroyed the company's entire inventory.
stepan [3596]
The total value of the inventory lost in the tornado is $105,700. Explanation: The relationship is captured in this equation: Beginning inventory + inventory purchases + Gross profit = Sales + ending inventory. Plugging in the figures, $228,350 + $199,400 + $322,050 = $644,100 + ending inventory resolves to $749,800 = $644,100 + ending inventory. Thus, determining that the ending inventory amounts to $749,800 - $644,100 results in $105,700. The gross profit is calculated as Gross profit percentage multiplied by sales: 50% multiplied by $644,100 yields $322,050. Since the inventory was destroyed in the tornado, we assume the ending inventory lost corresponds to $105,700.

stepan [3596]

Response:

The answer follows below.

Clarification:

Concept of Economic Unit

                      2014 2015

Jannison Inc. 308000 364000

Techron Co. 98000 126000

Subtotal 406000 490000

Subtract: Amortization 11000 11000

Net Income Total 395000 479000

Non-Controlling Interest

= 10 % of Techron Co,

(after accounting for amortization costs)

= 10% (98000-11000) 8700

= 10% (126000-11000)  11500

Total Consolidated Income 386300 467500

(post Noncontrolling interest distribution)

According to the Economic Unit concept, both companies are viewed as a single entity, thus their incomes are aggregated to determine the overall business income
