National Restaurant Supply, Inc., sells restaurant equipment and supplies throughout most of the United States. Management is considering adding a machine that makes sorbet to its line of ice cream making machines. Management will negotiate the purchase price of the sorbet machine with its Swedish manufacturer.

- Global Reach, Inc., is considering opening a new warehouse to serve the Southwest region. Darnell Moore, controller for Global Reach, has been reading about the advantages of foreign trade zones. He wonders if locating in one would be of benefit to his company, which imports about 90 percent of its merchandise (e.g., chess sets from the Philippines, jewelry from Thailand, pottery from Mexico, etc.). Darnell estimates that the new warehouse will store imported merchandise costing about 16.78 million per year. Inventory shrinkage at the warehouse (due to breakage and mishandling) is about 8 percent of the total. The average tariff rate on these imports is 5.5 percent. Required: 1. If Global Reach locates the warehouse in a foreign trade zone, how much will be saved in tariffs? Why? (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.) 2. Suppose that, on average, the merchandise stays in a Global Reach warehouse for nine months before shipment to retailers. Carrying cost for Global Reach is 6 percent per year. If Global Reach locates the warehouse in a foreign trade zone, how much will be saved in carrying costs? What will the total tariff-related savings be? (Round your answers to the nearest dollar.) 3. Suppose that the shifting economic situation leads to a new tariff rate of 13 percent, and a new carrying cost of 6.5 percent per year. To combat these increases, Global Reach has instituted a total quality program emphasizing reducing shrinkage. The new shrinkage rate is 7 percent. Given this new information, if Global Reach locates the warehouse in a foreign trade zone, how much will be saved in carrying costs? What will the total tariff-related savings be? (Round your answers to the nearest dollar.)arrow_forwardYou are the purchasing agent for Air France and you are planning to purchase 10 airplanes from Boeing. The planes cost $100 million each and will not be delivered for three years. The contract states that payment will be in US dollars upon delivery. At the time the order was placed, the Euro was valued at $1.15. You anticipate the Euro will be valued at $1.45 at the time of delivery. Is this a good deal for Air France or not? Explain in terms of how much Air France will pay in US dollars at the time of delivery.arrow_forwardThink back to the International Collections case in Assignment 5. Assume that the 60-day payment terms that you gave your buyer are typical, and that you will be required to carry up to $2,500,000.00 per month in accounts receivable for export sales. To be able to produce inventory for additional sales while while you carry 60 days of accounts receivable, you are going to need to find an outside source of additional export working capital. Discuss in detail two different options for financing export working capital to keep production going while you wait for payment from the last 60 days of sales.arrow_forward

To improve the performance of Canadian salespeople, Xorex has decided to buy a new sales software; however, they need to train all Canadian salespeople before they start using this new software. Therefore, Xorex has decided to send 3 Canadian salespeople to the US for training each month, so all Canadian salespeople will have been trained in the US by the end of the year. They think that when all employees are trained, they can implement the new sales program and each salesperson can sell 21 printers in Canada each month.
