Solution :
When the people of this economy trades three of their goods, the price of the good must list 1 price and then the economy requires 3 prices for the people to carry transactions.
Suppose the number of the goods that people trade increases to 15 number, then the price of the goods must list one price and the number of the price that the economy requires increases to 15.
Money has an intrinsic value and it is the unit of account, while that of the currency is the measure of the value and have a purchasing power that government is bestowed on it being a legal tender.
The store of the value characteristics is negatively impacted. But because the ongoing increase in the cost of the standard implies inflation that means that the value of the assets as accounted by the store has a value function as the money decreases.
Even when the cost of the living increases, the money serves as the best medium of exchange and a unit of the account.
Double coincidence of the wants is the barter system that is required.

c. Operating activities: As there is a decrease in raw material inventory as compared to the last year so the same is come under this activity
d. Investing activities: As the marketing rights are purchased so the same would be come under this activity
For each of the following scenarios, show how each market is affected. Label the initial equilibrium price P1, and the original quantity Q1. Label the new equilibrium price P2 and the quantity Q2.Due to perfect weather conditions, there is a larger than expected crop of oranges this year. The weather conditions do not affect the crop of tangerines. Citrus juice is made from either oranges or tangerines and consumers have no preference for one or the other. Lastly, citrus juice and oatmeal are complements and oats are required to make oatmeal.a. Market for oranges,b. Market for citrus juice,c. Market for tangerines,d. Market for oatmeal,e. Market for oats.
Answer:
See answers below; in details.
Explanation:
A rephrase of the question:
Consider the following conditions and describe what happens to equilibrium price and quantity in each of the listed markets.
(A) MARKET FOR ORANGES
- There are better (or perfect) weather conditions this year
- This will bring about a larger harvest of oranges
- Q2 > Q1
- P2 < P1 , owing to the law of demand and supply. Truly, in this case, 'all other things' such as consumer taste are constant and the weather conditions didn't increase or reduce the turnout of tangerines.
(B) MARKET FOR CITRUS JUICE
- The information given (where consumer taste is constant) shows that the law of rationality applies. Customers/Consumers are rational. They'll go for the cheaper type of citrus juice and this price depends on the magnitude of raw materials such as the tangerines or oranges themselves.
- Given a higher output of oranges, the market for citrus juice will boom. Hence Q2 of citrus juice > Q1 of citrus juice
- P2 of citrus juice < P1 of citrus juice
(C) MARKET FOR TANGERINES
- The information given about absence of consumer preference shows that oranges & tangerines are perfect substitutes.
- Substitution here means that one can perfectly replace the other and/or both fruits give the same value to end users.
- This means that there'll be less purchase of tangerines (either raw or juice) owing to the increased availability of oranges. Keep in mind that the quantity of tangerines harvested or produced did not fall in the year.
- So Q2 = Q1
- There is less purchase of tangerines this year and tangerine is a perishable good (it spoils or loses value with time) so, to encourage consumer purchase, producers in the market for tangerine will reduce the price. So P2 < P1
(D) MARKET FOR OATMEAL & (E) MARKET FOR OATS
- Citrus juice and oatmeal are complements. This means that they go together; in consumption. Just like the consumption of PMS is complementary to the consumption of car tires.
- The markets for oats and oatmeal will boom because the market for citrus juice is booming.
- As people consume more citrus juice, they'll purchase and consume more oatmeal.
- The output of oats under this weather condition isn't given so, we'll assume it to be constant.
- So the quantity of oats is constant but the price of oats will rise because its demand will rise or has risen. Q2 = Q1 ; P2 > P1
- In the market for oatmeal, quantity will increase and price will rise, due to higher demand. Q2 > Q1 ; P2 > P1
Reamer Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. The Corporation has provided the following estimated costs for next year: Direct materials $ 1,000 Direct labor $ 3,000 Sales commissions $ 4,000 Salary of production supervisor $ 2,000 Indirect materials $ 400 Advertising expense $ 800 Rent on factory equipment $ 1,000 Reamer estimates that 500 direct labor-hours and 1,000 machine-hours will be worked during the year. The predetermined overhead rate per hour will be:
Answer:
$3.40 per machine-hour
Explanation:
Calculation for what The predetermined overhead rate per hour will be:
First step is to calculate the Total estimated manufacturing overhead
Manufacturing overhead:
Salary of production supervisor $2,000
Indirect materials $400
Rent on factory equipment$1,000
Total estimated manufacturing overhead $3,400
Now let calculate the Predetermined overhead rate using this formula
Predetermined overhead rate=Total estimated manufacturing overhead/Estimated machine-hours
Let plug in the formula
Predetermined overhead rate=$3,400/1,000
Predetermined overhead rate=$3.40 per machine-hour
Therefore The predetermined overhead rate per hour will be:$3.40 per machine-hour
Abigail has just signed a 5-year lease for her new business. The full annual lease amount is due at the beginning of every year and such cash flows have been agreed to be 20,156 dollars now and the subsequent payments to increase by 5% per year until maturity. Given that the prevailing average market interest rate is 8% per year compounded monthly, compute the present value of this financial asset. (note: round your answer to the nearest cent and do not include spaces, currency signs, or commas)
Answer: $93,088
Explanation:
Rate is compounded monthly which makes it:
= 8% / 12
= 0.6667%
= 0.006667
The payment of $20,156 is to increase yearly at a rate of 5%. Payments are at the beginning of the period so the first payment does not have to be discounted.
[tex]= 20,156 + \frac{20,156 * 1.04}{(1 + 0.006667)^{12} } + \frac{20,156 * 1.04^{2} }{(1 + 0.006667)^{24} } + \frac{20,156 * 1.04^{3} }{(1 + 0.006667)^{36} } + \frac{20,156 * 1.04^{4} }{(1 + 0.006667)^{48} }\\\\= 20,156 + 19,355.65 + 18,587.08 + 17,849.02 + 17,140.27\\\\= 93,088.02[/tex]
= $93,088
On January 1, 2021, Tiny Tim Industries had outstanding $1,000,000 of 12% bonds with a book value of $967,000. The indenture specified a call price of $983,500. The bonds were issued previously at a price to yield 14% and interest payable semi-annually on July 1 and January 1. Tiny Tim called the bonds (retired them) on July 1, 2021. What is the amount of the loss on early extinguishment
Answer:
$8,810
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the amount of the loss on early extinguishment
First step is to calculate the Call price of bond
Call price of bond=$967,000 + ($967,000*(14%/2)) - ($1,000,000*(12%/2))
Call price of bond= $967,000 + ($967,000*7%) - ($1,000,000*6%)
Call price of bond=$967,000+$67,690+$60,000
Call price of bond= $974,690
Now let calculate the Amount of loss on early extinguishment
Amount of loss on early extinguishment = $983,500 - $974,690
Amount of loss on early extinguishment = $8,810
Therefore Amount of loss on early extinguishment will be $8,810
When you retire 35 years from now, you want to have $1.25 million. You think you can earn an average of 13.5 percent on your investments. To meet your goal, you are trying to decide whether to deposit a lump sum today, or to wait and deposit a lump sum 2 years from today. How much more will you have to deposit as a lump sum if you wait for 2 years before making the deposit
Answer:
$19,144.61
Explanation:
The first step would be to determine the present value of $1.25 million. After, the future value of that amount in 2 years has to be calculated
The formula for calculating future value:
P = FV / (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
$1.25 million / (1.135)^35 = $14,861.23
Now we find the future value using this formula :
FV = P (1 + r)^n
$14,861.23 x (1.135)^2 = $19,144.61

Makers Corp. had additions to retained earnings for the year just ended of $194,000. The firm paid out $184,000 in cash dividends, and it has ending total equity of $4.89 million. The company currently has 120,000 shares of common stock outstanding. a. What are earnings per share
Answer:
Makers Corp.
The Earnings Per Share are:
= $3.15.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Additions to retained earnings for the year = $194,000
Cash dividends paid out = 184,000
Net income = $378,000
Total equity = $4.89 million
Outstanding shares = 120,000
Earnings per share = Net Income/Outstanding shares
= $378,000/120,000
= $3.15
b) The earnings per share (EPS) is a financial metric that is widely used to corporate value. It indicates the amount of money that a company makes for its stockholders per share. It is computed by dividing the net income by the number of outstanding shares.
On January 1, 2020, Bridgeport Corporation issued $3,740,000 of 10-year, 8% convertible debentures at 102. Interest is to be paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31.

Debit Interest Payable $127,160
Credit Cash $127,160
To record payment of interest for the six months.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Issue of 10-year 8% Convertible Debentures at 102 = $3,814,800 (Cash)
Debenture premium $74,800
Half-yearly premium amortization = $74,800/20 = $3,740
Face value = $3,740,000
b) Interest on Debenture = $3,740,000 * 8% * 1/2 = $149,600
c) $374,000 debentures converted into 8 shares for every $1,000.
= $374,000/1,000 * 8 = 2,992 shares at $100 par value
d) Interest on Debentures ($3,740,000 - $374,000) * 8% * 1/4
= $3,366,000 * 8% * 1/4 = $67,320
Plus
$3,366,000 - $374,000 * 8% * 1/4 = $59,840
Total interest = $127,160

In the Excel, or spreadsheet, approach to recording financial transactions, if manufacturing overhead is underapplied by X dollars, the Manufacturing Overhead account is closed out by deducting X dollars in the Manufacturing Overhead column and deducting X dollars in the Retained Earnings column.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
To close the underapplied Manufacturing Overhead account requires that the Cost of Goods Sold is debited, say with $100 while the Manufacturing Overhead account is credited with the same amount. Underapplied Manufacturing Overhead account means that a debit balance is left after applying the overhead to production. To close this debit, therefore, a credit entry is required to the manufacturing overhead account. The corresponding debit entry goes to the Cost of Goods Sold, or this may be apportioned among Cost of Goods Sold, Finished Goods Inventory, and Work-in-Process, as may be the case.
Answer:
True.

Required:
a. Compute the number of regular models and deluxe models that must be sold to break even.
b. Using information only from the total column of the income statement, compute the sales revenue that must be generated for the company to break even.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the sales proportion of each product:
Regular= 12,000,000/22,720,000= 0.53
Deluxe= 10,720,000/22,720,000= 0.47
Now, we will determine the break-even point for the company as a whole:
Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin
Total fixed costs= 2,160,000 + 1,702,400= $3,862,400
Unitary contribution margin:
Regular= 4,800,000/100,000= $48
Delux= 4,288,000/20,000= $214.4
Weighted average contribution margin= (0.53*48) + (0.47*214.4)
Weighted average contribution margin= $128.35
Break-even point (units)= 3,862,400/128.35
Break-even point (units)= 30,093
For each product:
Regular= 0.53*30,093= 15,949
Deluxe= 0.47*30,093= 14,144
Finally, we need to calculate the break-even point in dollars for the whole company:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 3,862,400/ (9,088,000/22,720,000)
Break-even point (dollars)= 3,862,400/0.4
Break-even point (dollars)= $9,206,000
A consulting engineer has been engaged to advise a town how best to proceed with the construction of a 200,000 water supply reservoir. Since only 120,000 of storage will be required for the next 25 years, an alternative to building the full capacity now is to build the reservoir in two stages. Initially, the reservoir could be built with 120,000 of capacity and then, 25 years hence, the additional 80,000 of capacity could be added by increasing the height of the reservoir. Estimated costs are as follows construction cost, and annual maintenance cost, build in 2 stages first stage 120,000 reservoir $14'200,000 $75,000; second stage add 80,000 of capacity $120600,000 and $25,000 additional construction cost build in full capacity now 200,000 reservoir $22'400,000 and $100,000 if the interest is computed at 4%, which construction plan is preferred?
Answer:
Single stage construction
PW of Cost = $22,400,000 + 100,000(P/A, 4%, 25)
PW of Cost = $22,400,000 + 100,000(15.622)
PW of Cost = $22,400,000 + $1,562,200
PW of Cost = $23,962,200
Tow stage construction
PW of cots = $14,200,000 + $75,000(P/A, 4%, 25) + $12,600,000(P/F, 4%, 25)
PW of cost = $14,200,000 + $75,000(15.622) + $12,600,000(0.3751)
PW of cost = $14,200,000 + $1,171,650 + $4,726,260
PW of cost = $20,097,910
Conclusion: We should choose two stage construction as it has lesser Present worth of cost.
Here we preferred two stage construction as it has lesser Present worth of cost.
Calculation of the selection of the construction plan:For Single stage construction
PW of Cost = $22,400,000 + 100,000(P/A, 4%, 25)
= $22,400,000 + 100,000(15.622)
= $22,400,000 + $1,562,200
= $23,962,200
Now
For Tow stage construction
PW of cots = $14,200,000 + $75,000(P/A, 4%, 25) + $12,600,000(P/F, 4%, 25)
= $14,200,000 + $75,000(15.622) + $12,600,000(0.3751)
= $14,200,000 + $1,171,650 + $4,726,260
= $20,097,910

The total amount of depreciation recorded against an asset over the entire time the asset has been owned: Multiple Choice Is shown on the income statement of the final period. Is referred to as an accrued asset. Is only recorded when the asset is disposed of. Is referred to as depreciation expense. Is referred to as accumulated depreciation.
Answer:
Is referred to as accumulated depreciation.
Explanation:
Depreciation can be defined as the reduction of cost of a fixed asset systematically until the value of the asset becomes zero.
The Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) can be defined as a depreciation system that avails business owners or companies the ability and opportunity to recover or recoup the cost basis of physical assets that have experienced deterioration over a specific period of time.
In the United States of America, the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) is used mainly for tax purposes because it gives room for faster depreciation of a physical asset in its first years or initial usage and reduces depreciation as it is being used over a long period of time.
Hence, the total amount of depreciation recorded against an asset over the entire time the asset has been owned is referred to as accumulated depreciation.

Answer:
34 coupons. $33.75Explanation:
The coupons are the interest payments the bond makes.
1. The bond has a term of 17 years and coupons are to be paid semi-annually.
This means that for every year, 2 coupon payments will be made.
In 17 years therefore:
= 17 * 2
= 34 coupons
2. The interest on this bond is 6.75% in a year. The coupon is however, semi-annual. Payment per coupon will therefore be half of the yearly rate:
= 6.75% * 1,000 * 1/2
= $33.75

Manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by $30,000.
Explanation:
Since it is given that
The debit to the manufacturing overhead is $97,000
And, the total credit is $67,000
So, the remaining amount would be
= $97,000 - $67,000
= $30,000
This $30,000 represent the underapplied overhead

Gonzalez, Inc. has a fiscal year-end of September 30th. On March 1, 2018, Gonzalez authorized $800,000 of bonds payable, with a term of 12 years. The bonds carry a stated interest rate of 6%, with interest to be paid semi-annually on February 28th and August 31st. On August 1, 2019, Gonzalez issued three-quarters of the bonds for cash, at a premium of $25,400.
Required:
Prepare the journal entries that would be required relating to the bonds over period March 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019.
Answer:
August 1, 2019
Dr. Cash $625,400
Cr. Premium on Bond $25,400
Cr. Bond Payable $600,000
August 31, 2019
Dr. Interest Expense $16,941.67
Dr. Premium on Bond $1,058.33
Cr. Cash __________$18,000
September 30, 2019
Dr. Interest Expense $2,823.61
Dr. Premium on Bond $176.39
Cr. Cash __________$3,000
Explanation:
August 1, 2019
As the Bond was issued on August 1, 2019, So the first entry will be made at the issuance
Issuance of Bond = Total authorized x 3/4 = $800,000 x 3/4 = $600,000
Cash receipt = Face value + Premium on Bond = $600,000 + $25,400 = $625,400
August 31, 2019
As interest is paid on this date.
Interst payment = Face value x Coupon rate = $600,000 x 6% x 6/12 = $18,000
Amortization of Bond Premium ( Straight line ) = Premium on Bond / ( Years to maturity x Coupon payment period per year ) = $25,400 / ( 12 years x 2 periods per year ) = $1,058.33
September 30, 2019
On this date interest of one month is accrued which needs to be recorded.
Interest payable = 600,000 x 6% x 1/12 = $3,000
Amortization of Bond Premium ( Straight line ) = ( 25,400 / 24 ) / 6 = $176.39
Lee Financial Services pays employees monthly. Payroll information is listed below for January 2018, the first month of Lee's fiscal year. Assume that none of the employees exceeded any relevant wage base.
Salaries $470,000
Federal income taxes to be withheld 94,000
Federal unemployment tax rate 0.60%
State unemployment tax rate (after
FUTA deduction) 5.40%
Social security tax rate 6.20%
Medicare tax rate 1.45%
Required:
1. Calculate the income and payroll taxes for the January 2018 pay period.
2. Prepare the appropriate journal entries to record salaries and wages expense (not paid) and payroll tax expense for the January 2018 pay period.
Answer and Explanation:
1. The computation is shown below:
As we know that employee taxes involved the social security tax, medicare tax and the income tax
Social security tax
= Gross pay × 6.2%
= $470,000 × 6.2%
= $29,140
Medicare tax
= Gross pay × 1.45%
= $470,000 × 1.45%
= $6,815
And,
Income tax withheld = $94,000
Now payroll taxes involved social security tax, Medicare tax, Federal unemployment tax, and state unemployment tax.
Social security tax
= Gross pay × 6.2%
= $470,000 × 6.2%
= $29,140
Medicare tax
= Gross pay × 1.45%
= $470,000 × 1.45%
= $6,815
Federal unemployment tax is
= Gross pay × 0.6%
= $470,000 × 0.6%
= $2,820
State unemployment tax
= Gross pay × 5.40%
= $470,000 × 5.40%
= $25,380
2. Now the journal entries are
On January, 2018
Salaries wages expense $470,000
To Withholding income tax payable $94,000
To Social security tax payable $29,140
To Medicare tax payable $6,815
to Salaries and wages payable $340,045
(being salaries and wages expense is recorded)
On Jan 2018
Payroll tax expense $64,155
To Social security tax payable $29,140
To Medicare tax payable $6,815
To Federal unemployment tax payable $2,820
To State unemployment tax payable $25,380
(being tax liabilities is recorded)

a. What are the company's capital structure weights on a book value basis? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 4 decimal places, e.g., 32.1616.) Equity / Value Debt / Value
b. What are the company's capital structure weights on a market value basis? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 4 decimal places, e.g., 32.1616.) Equity / Value Debt / Value
c. Which are more relevant? Market value weights or Book value weights
Answer:
a. Book Value of Common Stock = [9,000,000 shares * $7.00 per share] = $63,000,000
Book Value of Debt = [$80,000,000 + $55,000,000] = $135,000,000
Total Book Value = $63,000,000 + $135,000,000 = $198,000,000
Capital structure weights of Common Stock = [$63,000,000 / $198,000,000] = 0.3182
Capital structure weights of Debt = [$135,000,000 / $198,000,000] = 0.6818
b. Market Value of Common Stock = [9,000,000 shares x $88 per share] = $792,000,000
Market Value of Debt = [($80,000,000 x 98%) + ($55,000,000 x 106%)] = $136,700,000
Total Market Value = $792,000,000 + $136,700,000 = $928,700,000
Capital structure weights of Common Stock = [$792,000,000 / $928,700,000] = 0.8528
Capital structure weights of Debt = [$136,700,000 / $928,700,000] = 0.1472
c. Market values/weigh are always preferred because they reflect the current scenario.
