Answers

Answer:

Total allocated overhead= $11,435

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Materials handling $196,000 4,900 pounds

Machine setup $19,600 560 setups  

Machine repair $1,600 32,000 machine hours

Inspections $16,500 330 inspections

Job 971

Direct labor 20 hours

Direct materials 220 pounds

Machine setup 30 setups

Machine hours 16,700 machine hours

Inspections 15 inspections

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate for each activity:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Materials handling= 196,000/4,900= $40 per pound

Machine setup= 19,600/560= $35 per setup  

Machine repair= 1,600/32,000= $0.05 per machine hour

Inspections= 16,500/330= $50 per inspection

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Materials handling= 40*220= 8,800

Machine setup= 35*30= 1,050  

Machine repair= 0.05*16,700=835

Inspections= 50*15= 750

Total allocated overhead= $11,435

Explanation:

1) Corporation management means that experts can be hired as managers.  On the other hand, the managers may not act in the best interest of the owners, even though, they are legally required to do so.

2) Limited liability of stockholders, government regulations, and additional taxes are the major disadvantages of a corporation.  Limited liability of stockholders may be a disadvantage to non-stockholders, but it is an advantage for stockholders, who will not be required to contribute more money to offset liabilities of the corporation in the event of liquidation.  Since corporations are distinct persons in law, they also need to be regulated and taxed as separate persons.  So, this is not a disadvantage.  It is only a consequence of being separate entity, like all individuals.

3) Organization costs include legal payments, state and federal registration, and incorporation fees, promotions, and charges associated with the underwriting of stocks and bonds. Organization costs can be classified as assets on the company's balance sheet.

4) A share in a company's stock accords some rights on the holder as itemized above.

5) The number of issued shares may be equal to or less than the authorized shares.  Some companies do not issue all the shares that they are authorized to issue at the same time.

6) Authorization of capital stock does not require a journal entry.  A memorandum record of the authorization is instead maintained to show the number of authorized capital shares and the par value.

7) There is no question 7.

8) Initial public offerings are made directly to investors.  The stock exchange market caters for the exchange of shares among investors.  The company is not involved and does not take any financial record, except the register of shareholders.

9) The market price of shares may be more or less than the par value.  The market price is determined by investors, who exchange shares at arm's length in the stock exchange market.  The par value is determined by those authorizing the issue of shares.

10) Retained Earnings are the income generated by the corporation which have not been distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends.

Cost of goods manufactured equals $55,000 for 2020. Finished goods inventory is $2,000 at the beginning of the year and $5,500 at the end of the year. Beginning and ending work in process for 2020 are $4,000 and $5,000, respectively. How much is cost of goods sold for the year?

Answers

Answer:

$51,500

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of goods sold for the year is shown below:

As we know that

Cost of Goods Sold = Beginning balance of Finished Goods Inventory + Cost of Goods Manufactured – Ending balance of Finished Goods Inventory

= $2,000 + $55,000 - $5,500

= $51,500

We simply applied the cost of goods sold formula by taking the three items into the computation part

The Solow model predicts that, over time, real GDP in developing economies could potentially converge to the same level of real GDP as developed economies. Which of the following is not consistent with convergence?

a. Investors seeking to build new factories would likely build those factories in developing economies that have some political stability.
b. Developing nations should converge because they can take advantage of technological discoveries made by developed economies.
c. Over time, developing economies become richer, and developed economies become poorer, until they reach the same level of wealth.
d. Because investment in developing nations yields relatively greater returns, capital will flow into developing economies, leading to relatively greater economic gro

Answers

Answer: c. Over time, developing economies become richer, and developed economies become poorer, until they reach the same level of wealth.

Explanation:

The Solow model which is a neoclassical framework focuses on long term Economics and does indeed speak to the convergence of the Real GDPs of Developed Countries with that of Developing countries.

However, of all the options listed, Option C goes against the model because convergence cannot happen if the Developed Countries keep getting richer while Developing countries keep getting poorer. Should that happen, they will never get to the same level of wealth and indeed might end up on opposite sides of the wealth spectrum with Developed Countries being extremely wealthy and Developing countries being extremely poor.

For convergence to happen, the conditions in A, B and D are preferable as they can indeed bring about the said convergence.

Oriole Inc manufactures model airplanes and repair kits. The planes account for 75% of the sales mix, and the kits the remainder. The variable cost ratio for the planes is 80% and 65% for the kits. Fixed costs are $114000. Compute the breakeven point in sales dollars.

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point (dollars)= $480,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs are $114000.

Sales mix:

Planes= 0.75

Kits= 0.25

Contribution margin ratio:

Planes= 0.20

Kits= 0.35

To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin ratio

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= sales mix*contribution margin ratio

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= 0.75*0.2 + 0.25*0.35

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= 0.2375

Break-even point (dollars)= 114,000/0.2375

Break-even point (dollars)= $480,000

Bandar Industries Berhad of Malaysia manufactures sporting equipment. One of the company’s products, a football helmet for the North American market, requires a special plastic. During the quarter ending June 30, the company manufactured 3,100 helmets, using 2,077 kilograms of plastic. The plastic cost the company $13,708. According to the standard cost card, each helmet should require 0.62 kilograms of plastic, at a cost of $7.00 per kilogram.
Required:
1. What is the standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) that is allowed to make 3,100 helmets?
2. What is the standard materials cost allowed (SQ × SP) to make 3,100 helmets?
3. What is the materials spending variance?
4. What is the materials price variance and the materials quantity variance? (For requirements 3 and 4, indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Answers

Answer:

1. 1,922

2. $13,454

3. $254 Unfavorable

4. 831 Favorable

$1,085 Unfavorable

Explanation:

1. The computation of standard quantity of kilograms of plastic is shown below:-

Standard quantity of kilograms allowed = Helmets manufactured × Required kilograms of plastic

= 3,100 × 0.62

= 1,922

2. The computation of standard materials cost allowed is shown below:-

Standard cost allowed for actual output = Standard quantity of kilograms allowed × Cost per kilogram

= 1,922 × $7

= $13,454

3. The computation of materials spending variance is shown below:-

Materials spending variance = Plastic cost - Standard cost allowed for actual output

= $13,708 - $13,454

= $254 Unfavorable

4. The computation of materials price variance and the materials quantity variance is shown below:-

Materials price variance = Plastic cost - (Plastic in kilograms × Cost per kilograms)

= $13,708 - (2,077 × $7)

= 831 Favorable

Materials quantity variance = Cost per kilograms × (Plastic in kilograms - Standard quantity of kilograms allowed)

= $7 × (2,077 - 1,922)

= $1,085 Unfavorable

Sheridan Company uses the periodic inventory system. For the current month, the beginning inventory consisted of 485 units that cost $66 each. During the month, the company made two purchases: 725 units at $69 each and 364 units at $71 each. Sheridan Company also sold 1198 units during the month. Using the average cost method, what is the amount of ending inventory? (Round average cost per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 21.48.)

Answers

Answer:

Value of closing inventory = $25771.04

Explanation:

To calculate the value of ending inventory under a periodic average cost method, we will calculate the average price per unit of inventory at the end of the month. To calculate the average price per unit, we simply divide the total cost of the inventory by the total number of units for the month.

Average cost per unit = Total cost of all units for the month / Total units available for the month

Total cost of all units:

Beginning inventory (485 * 66)            32010

Purchase 1     (725 * 69)                        50025

Purchase 2     (364 * 71)                        25844

Total                                                       107879

Total Units

Beginning Inventory     485

Purchase 1                     725

Purchase 2                    364

Total                              1574

Average cost per unit =   107879 / 1574

Average cost per unit = $68.54

Units of closing inventory = 1574 - 1198     =   376 units

Value of closing inventory =  376 * 68.54

Value of closing inventory = $25771.04

Zeke Company sells 26,900 units at $16 per unit. Variable costs are $9 per unit, and fixed costs are $38,100. The contribution margin ratio and the unit contribution margin, respectively, are

Answers

Answer:

Contribution margin ratio= 0.4375

Contribution margin= $7

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Zeke Company sells 26,900 units at $16 per unit. Variable costs are $9 per unit, and fixed costs are $38,100.

To calculate the contribution margin per unit, we need to use the following formula:

Contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost

Contribution margin= 16 - 9= $7

Now, we can calculate the contribution margin ratio:

Contribution margin ratio= contribution margin/ selling price

Contribution margin ratio= 7/16

Contribution margin ratio= 0.4375

An intellectual property is an embodiment of the creative work such as trademark, patent or copyright of an individual, usually an inventor.

Technology transfer agreements allows an intellectual property owner to license or grant to another the right to use its protected technology in return for some form of compensation and permit a company to quickly penetrate a foreign market without incurring the substantial financial and legal risks associated with direct investment because this will further enhance foreign direct investments, expansion and deeply foster world trade among countries.

Church Inc. is presently enjoying relatively high growth because of a surge in the demand for its new product. Management expects earnings and dividends to grow at a rate of 22% for the next 4 years, after which competition will probably reduce the growth rate in earnings and dividends to zero, i.e., g = 0. The company's last dividend, D0, was $1.25, its beta is 1.20, the market risk premium is 5.50%, and the risk-free rate is 3.00%. What is the current price of the common stock?
a. $32.69
b. $26.57
c. $27.37
d. $28.97
e. $23.39

Answers

Answer:

Option B ,$26.57 is correct

Explanation:

The cost of equity =Rf+Beta*Mrp

Rf is the risk free rate of 3.00%

Beta of equity is 1.20

Mrp is the market risk premium which is 5.50%

Cost of equity=3.00%+(1.20*5.50%)=9.60%

Stock price =present value of dividends+present value of terminal value

D1=$1.25*(1+22%)/(1+9.6%)^1=$ 1.39

D2=$1.25*(1+22%)^2/(1+9.6%)^2=$ 1.55  

D3=$1.25*(1+22%)^3/(1+9.6%)^3=$ 1.72  

D4=$1.25*(1+22%)^4/(1+9.6%)^4=$ 1.92  

terminal value=year 4 dividend/(r-g)

year 4 dividend=$1.25*(1+22%)^4= 2.77  

r is the cost of equity of 9.6%

g is the dividend afer year 4 which is 0%

terminal value= 2.77/(9.6%-0%)=$ 28.85  

present value of terminal value= 28.85/(1+9.6%)^4=$ 19.99  

Total present values=$ 1.39+$ 1.72+$ 1.92  +$ 1.92 +$ 19.99  =$26.58

According to the question Option B ,$26.57 is correct

How to calculate of common stock?

When The cost of equity = [tex]Rf+Beta "/times" Mrp[/tex]

After that, Rf is the risk free rate of 3.00%

then Beta of equity is[tex]1.20[/tex]

After that Mrp is the market risk premium which is 5.50%

So that, Cost of equity 3.00%+(1.20*5.50%)=9.60% = 9.60%

Then The Stock price is = present value of dividends + present value of terminal value

Now, D1 is = $[tex]1.25 "/times" (1+22[/tex]%[tex])/(1+9.6[/tex]%)^[tex]1=$ 1.39[/tex]

Then, D2 is = $[tex]1.25 "/times" (1+22[/tex]%[tex])^2/(1+9.6[/tex]%)^[tex]2=$ 1.55[/tex]  

Then D3 is = $1.25 "/times" (1+22%)^3/(1+9.6%)^3=$ 1.72  

After that D4 is = $[tex]1.25*(1+22[/tex]%[tex])^4/(1+9.6[/tex]%)^[tex]4=$ 1.92[/tex]

Then the terminal value is = year 4 dividend/(r-g)

Then year 4 dividend is = $[tex]1.25×(1+22[/tex]%)^4= 2.77  

Then r is the cost of equity of 9.6%

Now, g is the dividend after year 4 which is 0%

After that terminal value is = 2.77/(9.6%-0%)=$ 28.85  

Then present value of terminal value is = [tex]28.85/(1+9.6[/tex]%)^4=$ 19.99  

Thus, The Total present values is =$ [tex]1.39+$ 1.72+$ 1.92  +$ 1.92 +$ 19.99[/tex]  =$26.57

The rate of economic growth per capita in france from 1996 to 2000 was 1.9% per year, while in korea over the same period it was 4.2%. Per capita real GDP was $28,900 in france in 2003, and $12,700 in korea. Assume the growth rates for each country remain the same.
1. Compute the doubling time for France’s per capita real GDP.
2. Compute the doubling time for Korea’s per capita real GDP.
3. What will France’s per capita real GDP be in 2045?
4. What will Korea’s per capita real GDP be in 2045?

Answers

Answer:

36.83 years

16.85 years

$63,710.88

$ 71,490.43  

Explanation:

We can use the nper  formula in excel  to compute the doubling time for the capital real GDP of both countries

=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)

FV is the future real GDP which $28,900*2=$57,800 for France while that of Korea is $25,400 ($12,700*2)

PV is the present real GDP

rate is the economic growth rate of 4.2% in Korea and 1.9% in France

France=nper(1.9%,0,-28900,57800)= 36.83  

Korea=nper(4.2%,0,-12700,25400)= 16.85  

In 2045 ,which is 42 years from now the real GDP are shown thus:

=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)=fv(1.9%,42,0,-28900)=$63,710.88  

=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)=fv(4.2%,42,0,-12700)=$ 71,490.43  

An asset is acquired using a noninterest-bearing note payable for $100,000 due in two years.

Management has properly recorded the transaction.B. Management has not considered the present value of the note in recording the asset.C. Management should not record the asset until the note has been paid.D. Management should record the note for more than $100,000 to account for the underlying interest.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is A. Management has properly recorded the transaction.

Explanation:

According to the given data Since the note is non interest bearing, no interest will be paid on the bond.

Therefore, asset will be debited and note payable will be credited by the full amount.

Therefore, the Management has properly recorded the transaction.

The joural entry would be as follows:

Melody and Todd are married and have employee wages of $250,000 each in 2019. They have no other income. How much additional 0.9% Medicare tax will Melody and Todd have to pay or receive as a refund when they file their 2019 income tax return?

Answers

Answer:

$1,350

Explanation:

The computation of the amount pay or received as a refund at the time of filing the income tax return for the year 2019 is shown below:

As we know that

The Medicare tax rate is 1.45% till $200,000

And, if it is above $200,000 than 2.35% is charged (1.45% + 0.9%)

Now

For individually calculated,

Melody = ($200,000 × 1.45%) + ($50,000 × 2.35%) = $4,075

Todd = ($200,000 × 1.45%) + ($50,000 × 2.35%) = $4,075

So, the total is

= $4,075 + $4,075

= $8,150

Now if they filling their joint return so

Total salary is $500,000   ($250,000 × 2)

Medicare upto $250,000 = $3,625 ($250,000 × 1.45%)

for remaining $250,000 = $5,875 ($250,000 × 2.35%)

So, the Total is

= $3,625 + $5,875

= $9,500

Now the refund is

= Joint return - individually return for each one

= $9,500 - $8,150

= $1,350

The RST Company makes 38,000 parts to be used in its main products. The cost per part at this activity level is:

A company uses the percent of sales method to determine its bad debts expense. At the end of the current year, the company's unadjusted trial balance reported the following selected amounts: Accounts receivable $ 345,000 debit Allowance for uncollectible accounts 700 debit Net Sales 790,000 credit All sales are made on credit. Based on past experience, the company estimates that 0.6% of net credit sales are uncollectible. What amount should be debited to Bad Debts Expense when the year-end adjusting entry is prepared?

Answers

Answer: $5,440

Explanation:

When using the percent of sales method to determine bad debts, the company estimates a percentage that it believes will results in uncollectible debt and then applies it to the sales/revenue figure. The figure that is calculated is then debited along with the debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful accounts to the Bad debts account for the year and credited to the Allowance for doubtful accounts.

This company estimates that they will have 0.6% of credit sales uncollectible.

There are also $790,000 in sales of which all are on credit.

The Uncollectible estimate is therefore,

= 790,000 * 0.6%

= $4,740

This figure is then added to the debit amount on the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts.

= 4,470 + 700

= $5,440

Note; A debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful debt account signifies that the bad debts were higher than anticipated the last time. This is why the figure is added to the current bad debts expense.

You just made the last monthly payment on a 30 year mortgage -- the house is yours! In your joyous moment, you calculate how much you made in payments over those 30 years, and it is $647,514! If your interest rate was an APR of 6%, and you made equal monthly payments, how much did you originally borrow for this house

Answers

Answer:

$112,807

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of money you borrowed, you have to use the formula to calculate the present value:

PV=FV/(1+r)^n

PV= pressent value

FV= future value= 647,514

r= rate= 6%

n= number of periods of time= 30

PV=647,514/(1+0.06)^30

PV=647,514/(1.06)^30

PV=647,514/5.74

PV=112,807

According to this, you originally borrowed $112,807 for this house.

You are an owner of a bakery, and you meet with other neighborhood bakery owners. In an attempt to increase sales, you collectively decide to lower prices by 10%. Which of the following are consequences of this price change?
A. The supply of fresh baked goods will decrease.
B. The quantity supplied of fresh baked goods will decrease.
C. Demand for processed baked goods will decrease.
D. The supply of fresh baked goods will increase.
E. The demand for fresh baked goods will not change.
F. The demand for fresh baked goods will increase.

Answers

Answer:

The quantity supplied of fresh baked goods will decrease ( B )

Demand for processed baked goods will decrease. ( C )

The demand for fresh baked goods will not change ( E )

Explanation:

When the neighbourhood bakery owners agree to lower prices of goods by 10% it will not have any effect on the demand for fresh baked goods hence the demand for fresh baked goods will not change because the demand for fresh baked goods have an in-elastic curve

Also since there is s drop in price the quantity supplied by the suppliers will decrease. while The demand for processed baked goods will decrease because of the substitute it has in fresh baked goods that just got its price slashed by 10%

During the​ year, direct labor costs of​ $30,000 were​ incurred, manufacturing overhead totaled ​$42,000, materials purchased were​ $27,000, and selling and administrative costs were​ $22,000. Champagne sold​ 25,000 units of product during the year at a sales price of​ $5.00 per unit. What were the total manufacturing costs for the year assuming ​$2 comma 080 of indirect materials were used during the​ period?

Answers

Answer:

Using the models for total manufacturing cost that includes just direct labour costs, direct materials cost and overhead costs, total manufacturing cost = $99,000

Using the model that includes selling and administrative costs & indirect materials cost, total manufacturing cost = $123,080

Explanation:

Total manufacturing cost is a sum of the amount of cost incurred by a business to produce goods in a reporting period.

It usually consists of direct labour costs, direct materials cost and overhead costs.

In some models, the selling and administrative costs & cost of indirect materials are included.

Direct labour cost = $30,000

Manufacturing overhead costs = $42,000

Direct materials cost = $27,000

Total manufacturing cost = 30000 + 42000 + 27000 = $99,000

Selling and Administrative costs = $22,000

Indirect materials cost = $2,080

Total materials cost including selling and administrative costs & indirect materials cost = 99000 + 22000 + 2080 = $123,080

Fast-food restaurants like McDonald's are replacing cashiers with touch-screen ordering kiosks. Currently the MPL for an additional cashier is 48 customers served per hour and the MPK for an additional kiosk is 32 customers served per hour. A cashier can be hired for wage of $15; a kiosk rents for $12.
(a) Is Whataburger using the optimal cost-minimizing mix of cashiers and kiosks? Explain.
(b) What can Whataburger do to improve its mix of inputs – hire more cashiers or fewer? Rent more kiosks or fewer?

Answers

Answer:

a. Whataburger is not using the optimal cost-minimizaing mix of cashier and kiosks.

b. Whataburger should hire more cashier and rent fewer kiosks in order to improve its mix of inputs and minimize the cost

Explanation:

a. According to the given data we have the following:

Let "C" is a cashier.

"K" is a kiosk

MPC = 48 (Marginal Product of Cashier)

MPK = 32 (Marginal Product of Kiosk)

PC = $15 (cashier can be hired for a wage of $15)

PK = $12 (Kiosk rents for $12)

At optimal cost minimization point, (MPC / MPK) = (PC / PK)

(MPC / PC) = (MPK / PK)

(MPC / PC) = (48 / 15) = 3.2

(MPK / PK) = (32 / 12) = 2.67

Since the (MPC / PC) and (MPK / PK) is not equal. It implies Whataburger is not using the optimal cost-minimizaing mix of cashier and kiosks.

b. We have to use the following:

(MPC / PC) > (MPK / PK)

i.e., 3.2 > 2.67

It means Whataburger hire more cashier and rent fewer kiosks in order to improve its mix of inputs and minimize the cost.

There are 100 used laptop g for sale on the market. 40% of them are in good condition, and the rest of them are broken, which is the common knowledge to the owners and the buyers. Owners of broken laptops are willing to sell them for $300. Owners of good used laptops are willing to sell them if the price is above $1600 but will keep them if the price is lower than $1600. There is a large number of potential buyers who are willing to pay $2000 for a good laptop and $600 for a broken laptop. Buyers can't tell good laptops from bad, but original owners know. In equilibrium, what could be the maximum price set for a broken laptop to be sold

Answers

Answer:

In equilibrium the maximum price set for a broken laptop to be sold is $600

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

It is given that 40% laptops are in good condition. This implies that 60% are in bad condition.

In ordert to calculate the maximum price set for a broken laptop to be sold we would have to calculate the expected price that the buyers will be willing to pay for a  laptop as follows:

Expected price=0.60($2000)+0.40($600)

Expected price=$1,200+$240

Expected price=$1,440

As the owners of good laptops are willing to sell their laptops for $1,800, whis is more that $1,440, they will not sell their products.

This implies that only bad laptops are sold in the market. The willingless to pay for the bad laptops is $600

Therefore, In equilibrium the maximum price set for a broken laptop to be sold is $600
