Hanover Glassware produces crystal serve ware and uses process costing. At the start of May, 2,300 units were in process. During May, 11,000 units were completed and 2,000 units were in process at the end of May. The units in process at the end of May were 80% complete with respect to material and 30% complete with respect to conversion costs. Other information is as follows: Work in process, May 1: ​ Direct material $28,800 ​ Conversion costs 48,000 Costs incurred during May: ​ Direct material $198,000 ​ Conversion costs 242,000 How much is the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials during May?

Answers

Answer:

$18.00

Explanation:

First calculate the equivalent units of production with respect for direct materials.

Ending Work In Process (2,000 × 80%)                                            =  1,600

Completed and transferred out (11,000 × 100%)                              = 11,000

Equivalent units of production with respect to direct materials     = 12,600

Then, calculate the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units

                                        = ($28,800 ​+ $198,000) ÷ 12,600

                                        = $18.00

Cantlay, Inc., earns pretax book net income of $800,000 in 2019. Cantlay acquires a depreciable asset that year, and first-year tax depreciation exceeds book depreciation by $80,000. Cantlay reported no other temporary or permanent book-tax differences. The pertinent U.S. Federal corporate income tax rate is 21% and Cantlay earns an after-tax rate of return on capital of 8%. What is Cantlay’s current income tax expense for the year?

Answers

Answer:  $151,200

Explanation:

The Tax depreciation exceeds book depreciation so this excess will have to be removed from the income before tax is calculated as it is tax deductible.

Current Income Tax = (Pretax book income - Excess tax depreciation) * Income tax rate

= (800,000 - 80,000) * 21%

= $151,200

Sampson Industries has an annual plant capacity of 70,000 ​units; current production is 59,000 units per year. At the current production​ volume, the variable cost per unit is $26.00 and the fixed cost per unit is $4.80. The normal selling price of Sampson​'s product is $41.00 per unit. Sampson has been asked by Caldwell Company to fill a special order for 7,000 units of the product at a special sales price of $20.00 per unit. Caldwell is located in a foreign country where Sampson does not currently operate. Caldwell will market the units in its country under its own brand​ name, so the special order is not expected to have any effect on Sampson​'s regular sales. Read the requirementsLOADING....

Answers

Answer:

Sampson Industries

1. How would accepting the special order impact Sampson​'s operating​ income?

The acceptance of the special order will decrease Sampson's operating income by $42,000.

2. Should Sampson accept the special​ order?

No.  Sampson should not accept the special order.  It does not make any contribution in reducing the fixed costs.  Instead, it decreases the net income.  Special orders should be accepted when they add to the contribution in defraying the fixed costs, even if they do not add to the net income.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Annual plant capacity = 70,000 units

Current production = 59,000

Variable cost per unit = $26.00

Fixed cost per unit = $4.80

Normal Selling price per unit = $41

Special order = 70,000

Price of special order = $20

Incremental Analysis of Special Sales Order Decision

Total Order (7,000 units)

Revenue from special order $140,000

Less expenses associated with the order:

Less: Variable manufacturing cost 182,000

Contribution margin $(42,000)

Less: Additional fixed expenses associated with the order –

They mature exactly 10 years from today. The yield to maturity is 12%, so the bonds now sell below par. What is the current market value of the firm's debt

Answers

Answer:

$5,412,000

Explanation:

The semi annual interest = $20

Periods (n) till maturity are 10*2 = 20

Discounting rate is 12%/2 = 6%

Principal amount is $1,000

Market Value = 20 * PVIFA (20,6%) + 1,000 * PVIF (20,6%)

Market Value = 20 * 11.4699 + 1,000 * 0.3118

Market Value = 229.398 + 311.8

Market Value = 541.198

Market value = $541.20

Number of bonds = 10,000,000/1,000

Number of bonds = 10,000

Current market value = Number of bonds * Market value

Current market value = 10,000 * 541.20

Current market value = $5,412,000

Employees can elect to receive payment in lieu of vacation days. At December 31, 2021, M's unadjusted balance of liability for compensated absences was $32,400. M estimated that there were 200 total vacation days available at December 31, 2021. M's employees earn an average of $162 per day. In its December 31, 2021, balance sheet, what amount of liability for compensated absences is M required to report

Answers

Answer:

$28,200

Explanation:

There are 200 vacation days available as at December 31, 2021.

The liability compensated absences will be the amount that M Corp. owes employees should they take those 200 vacation days.  

Amount of liability = Number of total vacation days * Wage per day

Amount of liability = 200 * 141 per day

Amount of liability = $28,200

The following account balances were listed on the trial balance of Edgar Company at the end of the period: AccountBalance Accounts Payable$31,600 Cash 49,900 Common Stock 35,000 Equipment 16,000 Land 47,500 Notes Payable 62,500 The company’s trial balance is not in balance and the company’s accountant has determined that the error is in the cash account. What is the correct balance in the cash account?

Answers

Answer: $65,600

Explanation:

Debits should equal credits

Debits = Cash + Equipment + Land

= 49,900 + 16,000 + 47,500

= $113,400

Credits = Accounts Payable + Common stock + Notes Payable

= 31,600 + 35,000 + 62,500

= $129,100

The difference will be added to the Cash account where the error is from.

= 49,900 + (129,100 - 113,400)

= $65,600

The total expenses included cost of goods sold of $50 million, salaries and other administrative expenses of $9 million, $11 million of interest paid on a building's mortgage, and $14 million of depreciation. Assuming Roose is subject to the interest expense limitation, what amount of interest expense can the business deduct in the current year

Answers

Answer:

Roose, Inc.

The business can deduct $9.5 million in the current year.

Explanation:

Revenue = $92 million

Expenses allowed = 73 million ( $84 - $11 million for interest expense)

Adjusted taxable income before interest = $19 million

50% of adjusted taxable income = $9.5 million

Disallowed interest expense in the current year = $1.5 million

The interest expense allowed (deductible) is 50% for 2019 and 2020, as amended by the CARES Act) of the taxpayer's adjusted taxable income.

Answers

Answer:

Effective Annual Rate  = 8.1600%

Explanation:

The effective annual rate the interest rate that is adjusted for compounding over a given period of time. It is given by the formula:

[tex]r = (1+\frac{i}{n})^n -1\\where:\\r = effective\ annual\ rate\\i = nominal\ interest\ rate\ = 8.00\% = 0.08 \\n = number\ of\ compounding\ periods\ per\ year\ = 2\ (semi-annually)[/tex]

[tex]r = (1+\frac{0.08}{2})^2 -1\\r = (1\ +\ 0.04)^2 - 1\\r = (1.04)^2 - 1\\r = 1.0816 - 1\\r = 0.0816\\r = 8.1600 \%[/tex]

Future Value= $18,630,000

Initial Investment= $1,100,000

Interest rate= 0.0625/4= 0.01563

To calculate the time required to reach the objective, we need to use the following formula:

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)

n= ln(18,630,000 / 1,100,000) / ln (1.01563)

n= 182,44

It will take 182.44 quarters to reach $18,630,000.

Corporation A has the following returns for the past three years: 7 percent, 13 percent, and 10 percent. Assume each year return had the same probability (weights of 1/3 each). Calculate the expected return

Answers

Answer:

10.00%

Explanation:

The expected return is the weighted average of all the returns recorded thus far wherein the probability of each return occurring is used as the weight of each return as shown below:

Expected return=sum of (weight* value of return)

Expected return=(7%*1/3)+(13%*1/3)+(10%*1/3)

Expected return=0.023333333 +0.043333333 +0.033333333

Expected return=10.00%

The following financial information was summarized from the accounting records of Train Corporation for the current year ended December 31: Rails Division Locomotive Division Corporate Total Cost of goods sold $45,500 $31,400 Direct operating expenses 27,800 22,800 Sales 91,800 66,500 Interest expense $2,800 General overhead 18,400 Income tax 4,500 The income from operations for the Rails Division is a.$46,300 b.$91,800 c.$18,500 d.$64,000

Answers

Answer: $18500

Explanation:

The income from operations for the rail divisions will be calculated thus:

For the rail division,

Sales = $91800

Cost of goods sold = $45500

Direct operating expense = $27800

Income from operations:

= $91800 - $45500 - $27800

= $18500

Your firm has a credit rating of BBB. You notice the credit spread for 5yr maturity BBB debt is 1.1% or 110 basis points. Your firm's 5yr debt has a coupon rate of 6% with annual payments. You see that new 5yr Treasury bonds are being issued at par with a coupon rate of 2.6%. What should the price of your outstanding 5yr bonds be per $100 face value?
a. $110.33.b. $115.75.c. $123.71.d. $112.54.

Answers

Answer:

Bond Price = $110.3260609 rounded off to $110.33

Option A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and annual interest rate in the market will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = 100 * 0.06 = $6

Total periods (n) = 5'

i or market interest rate = 2.6% + 1.1% = 3.7%

We use the market interest rate for BBB rated bonds in the calculation. The market rate can be found by taking the risk free rate and adding the credit spread for BBB rating bond in this case. The market rate comes out to be 3.7%

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

Bond Price = 6 * [( 1 - (1+0.037)^-5) / 0.037]  +  100 / (1+0.037)^5

Bond Price = $110.3260609 rounded off to $110.33

Flyer Company has provided the following information prior to any year-end bad debt adjustment: Cash sales, $152,000 Credit sales, $452,000 Selling and administrative expenses, $112,000 Sales returns and allowances, $32,000 Gross profit, $492,000 Accounts receivable, $130,000 Sales discounts, $16,000 Allowance for doubtful accounts credit balance, $1,400 Flyer prepares an aging of accounts receivable and the result shows that 3% of accounts receivable is estimated to be uncollectible. How much is bad debt expense

Answers

Answer:

$2,500

Explanation:

The computation of bad debt expense is shown below:-

Total Bad Debt = $130,000 × 3%

= $3,900

Balance of allowance for doubtful accounts after Bad debt Expense = Total bad debt - Allowance for doubtful account credit balance

= $3,900 - $1,400

= $2,500

So, we have applied the above formula.

The same is to be considered

The maintenance expense (paid at the end of the year) on a machine, with 6 years of useful life, is expected to be (in constant dollars of year 0) $5,000 during the first year and to increase (in constant dollars) $500 each year for the following five years. The average inflation rate for the next 6 years is calculated to be 3%. What is the equivalent equal annual maintenance cost (in actual dollars) for the machinery if the interest rate is 8%

Answers

Answer: $1387.5

Explanation:

Given data:

Useful life of the machine = 6years

Inflation for the 6years period = 3%

Interest rate = 8%.

Cost of maintenance = $5000

Yearly increments = $500 for five years.

Solution:

Total cost of maintenance for five years

= cost of maintenance + yearly increments x 5

= $5000 + $500(5)

= $5000 + $2500

= $7500.

Interest rate on the machinery = 8%

= 0.08 x $7500

= $600

Inflation rate

= 0.03 x 7500

= $225

Equal yearly maintenance cost

= $7500 + $600 + $225/ 6

= $8325/6

= $1387.5

ACE Co. stock is not paying a dividend today, but has announced it will start paying a dividend in year 4 of $2.00 per share, and that will increase 5% per year forever. What is an estimate of the price of the stock today if r

Answers

Answer:

$77.22

Explanation:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar question and found that Re = 9%

Div₀ = 0

Div₁ = 0

Div₂ = 0

Div₃ = 0

Div₄ = $2

the terminal value at year 3 = Div₄ / (Re - g) = $4 / (9% - 5%) = $100

in order to determine the current stock price we must discount $100 by 9% for 3 periods = $100 / 1.09³ = $77.22

Kahn Company paid $240,000 to purchase a machine on January 1, Year 1. During Year 3, a technological breakthrough resulted in the development of a new machine that costs $300,000. The old machine costs $100,000 per year to operate, but the new machine could be operated for only $36,000 per year. The new machine, which will be available for delivery on January 1, year 3, has an expected useful life of four years. The old machine is more durable and is expected to have a remaining useful life of four years. The current market value of the old machine is $80,000. The expected salvage value of both machines is zero.
Required:
Based on this information, recommend whether to replace the machine. Support your recommendation with appropriate computations.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, the machine should be replaced

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Particulars              old Machine            New machine

Purchase price                                       $300,000

Less:

Salvage value                                        -$80,000

Operating cost         $400,000              $144,000

                          ($100,000 × 4 )        ($36,000 × 4)

Total cost                 $400,000                $364,000

So, the financial advantage is

= $400,000 - $364,000

= $36,000

Since there is a financial advantage of $36,000 so the old machine should be replaced with the new machine
