Question 1

The Guillermo Furniture Store Scenario ? Write a paper of at least 1,500 words that focuses on the different alternatives available to Guillermo. ? Prepare an Income Statement for each of the alternatives from the data provided. Compare the results of the two new alternatives to the existing operations and explain the causes for the differences (contribution margins, volumes, leverage, fixed costs, sensitivity analysis, etc.) Assume for the Hi-Tech alternative the new equipment can be leased from the manufacturer for five years at a monthly cost of $23,000 and treated as an operating lease. ? Determine the weighted average cost of capital for the existing operations and each of the two alternatives. Assume the equity (market) value of the company is 0.70 sales and the market value of the debt is equal to the balance sheet value. Compute the required rate of return on equity using the CAPM formula: the risk free rate is 3%, the market rate is 12%, the beta for existing operations is 1.5, the beta for the hi tech alternative is 1.8 and the beta for the broker alternative is 1.2. The cost of debt and the tax rate are as given in the data provided. ? Discuss the factors that affect the risk of a typical project (Chapter 8) and how they might influence a project?s risk (discount rate) versus the firm?s risk (WACC).,No formatting or referencing is necessary.

Question 5

Hello, I have the following problem that I have been working on and need help. I posted this question already and hope the same instructor will get this. It is not a duplicate. The one I posted first is due next weekend. It is the same problem, but for the acquisition/payment process. This one below is due TONIGHT and is the same problem but is for the SALES/COLLECTION process. If you are the same professor and you can do both separately for the first $50 have pending on my first submission, great. If not, please do this one first (the sales/collection process) and it will be an additional $50. If you do them both (but it must be two total different diagrams) for the original $50, please cancel this one. Thank you and please accept my apologies for posting this again. " Quandrax Computers is a store that buys computer components for low prices, assembles the components into computers, and then sells the computers at high prices. Each computer is assigned a unique identification number, and computers that have common configurations are categorized into types (e.g. Longitude is a laptop that is easily networked and is recommended for businesses, Element is a desktop that is intended for home and small businesses). Categories can be entered into the database before any computers in the categories are actually assembled. The computer components are purchased from wholesalers. One of Quandrax?s purchasing agents submits an order to the wholesaler that has listed a given component for sale. If the order is accepted, one of Quandrax?s inventory clerks receives the items. Multiple orders accepted by the same supplier may be consolidated into one purchase. Orders are accepted in their entirety or not at all. Nearly all of Quandrax?s orders are accepted. Sometimes the incorrect components are delivered to Quandrax and Quandrax has to return them to the appropriate supplier. Sometimes Quandrax returns components to suppliers for other reasons, such as the result of a change in planned production of a certain category of computers. Only about 10 percent of Quandrax?s purchased components are returned to suppliers, and any return would result from only one purchase. When payment is due for a purchase, one of Quandrax?s cashiers issues one check for payment in full for the items on that purchase. Sometimes if multiple purchases have been made from the same supplier within a short time, Quandrax pays for those purchases with just one check. One of Quandrax?s managers is required to not only authorize all purchase orders greater than $5,000 but also to sign all checks (including checks written for expenditures other than purchases of computer components). Quandrax needs to keep track of the managers? participation in these events as well as the participation of other employees in these events. In physically implementing the conceptual model into the database tables, Quandrax wants to combine all employee types into just one table. This means Quandrax would keep the separate employee entities on the E-R diagram, but make just one employee table to represent all of the employee entities, then post keys or make relationship tables as necessary to implement all relationships of employees to the relevant events. All sales are handled via mail or e-mail, as Quandrax does not have any showrooms. Quandrax assigns salespeople to its large corporate customers and the salespeople take sample computers to the customer locations to demonstrate features as part of their sales calls. Only a small percentage of Quandrax?s sales calls result in orders, and sometimes a salesperson might need to make several sales calls to the same customer to obtain one order from that customer. Orders also result from customers surfing the Internet and seeing descriptions of the computers on Quandrax?s website. These customers are not assigned to specific salespeople; Quandrax only tracks the salesperson that actually took the order. Some of Quandrax?s salespeople are hired to handle just such orders and as such are not assigned specifically to any customers. If a customer orders multiple computers on one sale order and some of the computers are immediately available whereas the others are not yet assembled, Quandrax ships the available computers right away and then ships the remainder of the order when the rest of the computers are assembled. Sometimes Quandrax combines computers from multiple sale orders into a single shipment. For example, once a customer ordered 10 computers and the next day decided that wouldn?t be enough so he ordered 4 more. Quandrax shipped all 14 computers in one shipment. Quandrax only accepts checks for its sales of computers; customers can pay for multiple sales with a single check, but no partial payments are accepted. Each sale transaction is tracked by a shipment ID; an invoice is sent to the customer that is due within 10 days, with no discounts allowed. Quandrax does not allow any sale returns, that is, all sales are final. Cash receipts are never split between two cash accounts; rather each receipt is assigned to one of Quandrax?s cash accounts by one of Quandrax?s cashiers. Quandrax also receives cash from other activities such as loans, so the database must allow for that. Suppliers, employees, and customers need to be entered into the database before any transactions involving them occur. The following attributes are of interest to Quandrax; some are related to the acquisition/payment cycle. The attributes that are related to the sales/collection process must be included in your solution. Do not add attributes to the list. Use the boldface attribute abbreviations in parentheses next to the attributes in the list. List any assumptions you make, along with the reasons behind your assumptions (i.e., state what you think is vague in the problem, say what you are going to assume to clear up the ambiguity, and make a case for that assumption).
