Answer:
Dr cash $120,000
Cr Notes payable $120,000
Dr interest expense $2,400
Dr notes payable $30,000
Cr cash $32,400
Explanation:
The issuance of the notes payable of $120,000 means that White Corporation's cash inflow has increased by $120,000 while its corresponding loan obligation has also gone up by the same amount.
On 31 December 2018,White Corporation would need to repay $30,000 principal plus interest of $2,400 ($120,000*2%).The interest payment is debited to interest expense while $30,000 repayment is debited to notes payable and cash is credited with the total of $32,400

Lansing, Inc., provided the following data for its two producing departments: Molding Polishing Total Estimated overhead $400,000 $80,000 $480,000 Direct labor hours (expected and actual): Form A 1,000 5,000 6,000 Form B 4,000 15,000 19,000 Total 5,000 20,000 25,000 Machine hours: Form A 3,500 3,000 6,500 Form B 1,500 2,000 3,500 Total 5,000 5,000 10,000 Machine hours are used to assign the overhead of the Molding Department, and direct labor hours are used to assign the overhead of the Polishing Department. There are 30,000 units of Form A produced and sold and 50,000 of Form B. Required:
1. Calculate the overhead rates for each department.
2. Using departmental rates, assign overhead to the two products and calculate the overhead cost per unit. How does this compare with the plantwide rate unit cost, using direct labor hours?
3. What if the machine hours in Molding were 1,200 for Form A and 3,800 for Form B and the direct labor hours used in Polishing were 5,000 and 15,000, respectively? Calculate the overhead cost per unit for each product using departmental rates, and compare with the plantwide rate unit costs calculated in Requirement 2. What can you conclude from this outcome?
Answer:
1. Form A$80 per machine hour
Form B $4 per direct labor hour
2.Form A from $3.84 to $10.00
Form B from $7.30 to $3.60
3. Form A Unit overhead cost $ 3.87
Form B Unit overhead cost $ 7.28
Explanation:
Lansing, Inc
1. Overhead rates for each department will be;
Molding
$400,000/5,000
= $80 per machine hour
Polishing
$80,000/20,000
= $4 per direct labor hour
2. The overhead assignment:
Form A
($80 ×3,500) + ($4 ×5,000)
$280,000+$20,000
=$300,000
Form B
($80 ×1,500) + ($4 ×15,000)
$120,000+$20,000
=$180,000
Total applied overhead $300,000 and $180,000
Units of production Form A :
300,000÷30,000
=Unit overhead cost $10.00
Units of production Form B
180,000÷50,000
= Unit overhead cost $3.60
Plantwide rate Will be :
$480,000/25,000
= $19.20 per direct labor hour
Form A overhead cost in units will be:
$19.20 ×6,000/30,000
$19.20×0.2
$3.84
Form B overhead cost in unit will be :
$19.20 ×19,000/50,000
$19.20×0.38
$7.296 approximately $7.30
The plantwide rate for Form A
$3.84 to $10.00
The plantwide rate for Form B
$7.30 to $3.60
3. Overhead assignment:
Form A
($80 ×1,200) + ($4 ×5,000)
=$96,000+$20,000
=$116,000
Form B
($80 ×3,800) + ($4 ×15,000)
=$304,000 +$60,000
=$364,000
Total applied overhead
Form A $116,000
Form B $364,000
Units of production
Form A
$116,000 ÷ 30,000
=Unit overhead cost $ 3.87
Form B
$364,000÷ 50,000
Unit overhead cost $ 7.28
When compared to the plantwide unit overhead costs the cost will be $0.03 more higher for Form A and $0.02 less for Form B.
Which means that departmental rates may not cause a change in the assignments because It will depends on the complexity of each product and the way in which the resource demands are been made in each of the department.
Which of the following statements is correct?a. The cost of new equity (re) could possibly be lower than the cost of retained earnings (rs) if the market risk premium, risk-free rate, and the company's beta all decline by a sufficiently large amount.b. The component cost of preferred stock is expressed as rp(1 - T), because preferred stock dividends are treated as fixed charges, similar to the treatment of interest on debt.c. Its cost of retained earnings is the rate of return shareholders require on a firm's common stock.d. We should use historical measures of the component costs from prior financing when estimating a company's WACC for capital budgeting purposes.
Answer:
c. Its cost of retained earnings is the rate of return shareholders require on a firm's common stock.
Explanation:
The formula to compute the cost of retained earning is as follows
Cost of retained earning = (Expected annual dividend ÷ Price of the stock) + growth rate
It is the rate of return that equates with the cost of equity plus it also earns on the investment done in the company i.e equity
In a mathematical expression,
Cost of retained earnings = Cost of equity
hence, the correct option is c.

Suppose your employer offers you a choice between a $ 4 comma 600 bonus and 200 shares of the company stock. Whichever one you choose will be awarded today. The stock is currently trading for $ 64 per share. Ignore transaction costs. a. Suppose that if you receive the stock bonus, you are free to trade it. Which form of the bonus should you choose? What is its value? b. Suppose that if you receive the stock bonus, you are required to hold it for at least one year. What can you say about the value of the stock bonus now? What will your decision depend on?
Answer:
a. Suppose that if you receive the stock bonus, you are free to trade it. Which form of the bonus should you choose? What is its value?
I would choose the stock bonus because the current market price = 200 x $64 = $12,800 which is much higher than $4,600 (cash bonus)
b. Suppose that if you receive the stock bonus, you are required to hold it for at least one year. What can you say about the value of the stock bonus now? What will your decision depend on?
Even if you are required to hold the stock for one year, the price difference with the cash bonus is too great = ($12,800 - $4,600) / $4,600 = 178% higher. Since you are employed by the company, you should know if the company is doing well or not, and the probable future stock price.
Only if something catastrophic happened to the company would make the cash bonus more attractive.
Marigold Corp. budgeted costs for 70000 linear feet of block are: Fixed manufacturing costs$24000 per month Variable manufacturing costs$16 per linear foot Marigold installed 40000 linear feet of block during March. How much is budgeted total manufacturing costs in March
Answer:
$664,000
Explanation:
The computation of the total budgeted manufacturing cost is shown below:
Total manufacturing costs = Variable manufacturing cost + Fixed manufacturing cost
= ($16 × 40,000 units ) + $24,000
= $664,000
We simply added the variable manufacturing cost and the Fixed manufacturing cost so that the total budgeted manufacturing cost could come and the same is to be considered

Machine setup Setups $16,000 40 25 15
Machining Machine hours 110,000 5,000 1,000 4,000
Packing Orders 30,000 500 150 350
Required:
Prepare a schedule showing the computations Of the activity-based Overhead rates per cost driver.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Machine setup Setups $16,000 40 25 15
Machining Machine hours $110,000 5,000 1,000 4,000
Packing Orders $30,000 500 150 350
To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Machine setup= 16,000/(40+25+15)= $200 per setup
Machining= 110,000/ (5,000 + 1,000 + 4,000= $11 per machine hour
Packing= 30,000/ (500 + 150 + 350)= $30 per order
Kerbow Corporation uses part B76 in one of its products. The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the 12,000 units of the part that are needed every year. An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $27.40 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $6,000 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided. In addition, the space used to produce part B76 could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $29,000 per year for that product.A. Prepare a report that shows the effect on the company's total net operating income of buying part B76 from the supplier rather than continuing to make it inside the company.B. Identify which alternative the company should choose and explain why.C. Determine what errors managers may make when considering make or buy decisions and basing the decision solely on the data?
Answer:
12,000 units
outside supplier offers at $27.40 each = $328,800
current relevant costs:
direct materials $7.20 x 12,000 = $86,400direct labor $7.10 x 12,000 = $85,200variable overhead $3.50 x 12,000 = $42,000 supervisor's salary $4.70 x 12,000 = $56,400total = $270,000only $6,000 of allocated fixed costs can be avoided
additional revenue from using the freed space $29,000
A. Prepare a report that shows the effect on the company's total net operating income of buying part B76 from the supplier rather than continuing to make it inside the company.
Keep Buy Differential
producing from vendor amount
production cost $270,000 $0 $270,000
purchase cost $0 $328,800 ($328,800)
avoidable costs $0 ($6,000) $6,000
additional revenue $0 ($29,000) $29,000
total $270,000 $293,800 ($23,800)
B. Identify which alternative the company should choose and explain why.
The company should keep producing the part because production costs are lower than buying it from an outside vendor.
C. Determine what errors managers may make when considering make or buy decisions and basing the decision solely on the data?
If we had made this decision based on total production costs, then management would have erroneously chosen to purchase the part from an outside vendor. Total production costs are $28.30 per unit, but almost $5.80 per unit are not avoidable (mostly fixed and general overhead), so the company will incur them no matter what. You have to compare only relevant costs or revenues.
A firm's bonds have a maturity of 14 years with a $1,000 face value, have an 8% semiannual coupon, are callable in 7 years at $1,073.00, and currently sell at a price of $1,135.93. What are their nominal yield to maturity and their nominal yield to call? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.
Answer:
YTM = 6.51%
YTC = 6.40%
Explanation:
We need to solve using excel goal seek or bond formulas to generate the yield (interest rate) which matches the future couponb and maturity payment with the current selling price of the bond:

A company purchased 10 units for $5 on January 3. It purchased 10 units for $7 each on February 28. It sold 10 units on March 1. If the company uses the last in, first out (LIFO) inventory costing method, what is the dollar amount for ending inventory on the December 31 balance sheet, assuming that the company uses a perpetual inventory system
Answer:
The dollar amount for ending inventory using the last-in-first-out method of inventory valuation is $50
Explanation:
Using LIFO,last-in-first-out method of inventory valuation,items received last into the store are deemed to be sold first, hence the sales of 10 units on March 1 was the inventory purchased on February 28, leaving the items of inventory purchased on January 3 as closing inventory
value of closing inventory using LIFO=10*$5=$50
"Addison Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. The equipment will have an initial cost of $522,000, a 3 year life, and no salvage value. If the accounting rate of return for the project is 6%, what is the annual increase in net cash flow
Answer:
$31,320.00
Explanation:
The formula for accounting rate of return is the annual net cash flow divided by the initial investment.
If the initial investment was $522,000 and the accounting rate of return is computed to be 6% per year, hence the annual increase in cash flow accruing from the investment can be calculated by changing the subject of the formula.
ARR=annual increase in cash flow/initial investment
ARR is 6%
initial investment is $522,000
annual increase in cash flow?
6%=annual increase in cash flow/$522,000
annual increase in cash flow=6%*$522,000= $31,320.00
Jasper and Crewella Dahvill were married in year 0. They filed joint tax returns in years 1 and 2. In year 3, their relationship was strained and Jasper insisted on filing a separate tax return. In year 4, the couple divorced. Both Jasper and Crewella filed single tax returns in year 4. In year 5, the IRS audited the couple’s joint year 2 tax return and each spouse’s separate year 3 tax returns. The IRS determined that the year 2 joint return and Crewella’s separate year 3 tax return understated Crewella’s self-employment income, causing the joint return year 2 tax liability to be understated by $12,700 and Crewella’s year 3 separate return tax liability to be understated by $7,350. The IRS also assessed penalties and interest on both of these tax returns. Try as it might, the IRS has not been able to locate Crewella, but they have been able to find Jasper. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required.)
a. What amount of tax can the IRS require Jasper to pay for the Dahvill’s year 2 joint return?
Amount of Tax:__________________
b. What amount of tax can the IRS require Jasper to pay for Crewella’s year 3 separate tax return?
Amount of Tax:__________________
Answer: a. $12,700
b. $0
Explanation:
a. As Jasper and Crewella Dahvill filed joint tax returns in Year 2, both of them are joint and severally liable for any errors that may arise in the filing. The IRS could not find Crewella but they could find Jasper and as he is liable as well, he will have to pay the full amount that Crewella understated their tax liability by.
b. In year 3, Jasper and Crewella Dahvill had a strained relationship and filed their returns separately. As a result Jasper is not liable for any errors that will arise from Crewella's tax returns filing including the understatement of tax liability.
Cinnamon Buns Co. (CBC) started 2018 with $52,600 of merchandise on hand. During 2018, $297,000 in merchandise was purchased on account with credit terms of 3/10 n/30. All discounts were taken. Purchases were all made f.o.b. shipping point. CBC paid freight charges of $9,400. Merchandise with an invoice amount of $2,100 was returned for credit. Cost of goods sold for the year was $309,000. CBC uses a perpetual inventory system. Assuming CBC uses the gross method to record purchases, ending inventory would be:
Answer:
$39,053
Explanation:
The computation of the ending inventory is shown below:
Beginning inventory $52,600
Add: Inventory purchased $297,000
Add: Freight in $9,400
Less: Merchandise returned -$2,100
Less: Discounts -$8,847 ($297,000 - $2,100) × 3%
Less: Cost of goods sold -$309,000
Ending inventory $39,053
Hence, the ending inventory using the gross method is $39,053
A store sells 20 ice cream bars per hour for $4 each, but on discount days, it sells 35 ice cream bars per hour for $3. Based on these two data points, what would be the slope for the relationship between the price and the quantity of ice cream sold?
Answer:
The slope for the relationship between the price and the quantity of ice cream sold would be of -1/15
Explanation:
In order to calculate the slope for the relationship between the price and the quantity of ice cream sold we would have to calculate the following formula:
Slope= change in yaxis( vertical)/change in xaxis(horizontal)
Slope= change in price/change in quantity demand
Slope=P2-P1/Q2-Q1
Slope=3-4/35-20
Slope=-1/15
The slope for the relationship between the price and the quantity of ice cream sold would be of -1/15

Trademark dilution laws: Select one: a. protect "distinctive" or "famous" marks from unauthorized uses even when confusion is not likely to occur. b. are intended at protecting consumers rather than focusing on protecting the investment of trademark owners. c. permit a company to quickly penetrate a foreign market without incurring the substantial financial and legal risks associated with direct investment. d. require the licensee to transfer any inventions it derives from the licensed technology to the licensor.
Answer:
a. protect "distinctive" or "famous" marks from unauthorized uses even when confusion is not likely to occur.
Explanation:
Trademark dilution laws are rules and regulations that seek to protect the trademarks of well known brands from unauthorized use by other brands, in such a way that the distinctive attribute of the trademark is minimized. Trademark dilution laws are meant to ensure that the main purpose for which a product's trademark is known is meant to stand out significantly in the mind of consumers.
Smaller companies might want to copy the trademark of famous brands for their products which might be different. These laws seek to prevent this act even if it may not cause confusion in the minds of consumers as to which brand owns a product.

From the question, the boss is concerned about the research plan and says that he does not believe that we are ready to run causal research on the effects of advertising and further said we should re-evaluate the descriptive research options.
Based on the scenario above, I'll choose to research the attitudes that U.S. women and consumers over 35 have towards the eSports industry. By choosing this option, I'll have a large sample size to carry out the descriptive research.
It should also be noted that the descriptive method consist of qualitative natural survey and also the cross sectional research. By researching the attitude of women and consumers, this will give us the opportunity to utilize the cross sectional research. Therefore, the second option is the correct answer.
Scora, Inc., is preparing its master budget for the quarter ending March 31. It sells a single product for $50 per unit. Budgeted sales for the next three months follow. January February March Sales in units 1,000 2,600 1,200 Prepare a sales budget for the months of January, February, and March.
Answer:
Sale budget January= $50,000
Sales budget February= $130,000
Sales budget March= $60,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
It sells a single product for $50 per unit. Budgeted sales for the next three months follow. January February March Sales in units 1,000 2,600 1,200
The sales budget is a simple multiplication between the selling price per unit and the number of units sold.
Sale budget January= 1,000*50= $50,000
Sales budget February= 2,600*50= $130,000
Sales budget March= 1,200*50= $60,000
Playful Pens, Inc., makes a single model of a pen. The cartridge for the pen (which contains the ink) is manufactured on one machine. The cartridge holder (which you hold when you use the pen)is manufactured on another machine. Monthly capacities and production levels are as follows:
Machine 1 (Cartridge) Machine 2 (Holders)
Monthly capacity 1,000,000 800,000
Monthly production 800,000 800,000
The company could sell 1,000,000 pens per month. The units (cartridge inside of holder) sell for $10.40 each and have a variable cost of $4.10 each. Fixed costs are $4,200,000 per month.
Required:
a. Is there a bottleneck at Playful Pens on Machine 1 or Machine 2?
A. Machine 1
B. Machine 2
b. Playful Pens's production supervisors state they could increase machine 2's capacity by 200,000 per month by producing holders on the weekend. Producing on the weekend would not affect the sales price. Variable cost per unit would increase by $1.10 for those produced on the weekend because of the premium paid to labor. Fixed costs would also increase by $820,000 per month.
b-1. Calculate the differential operating profit (loss). (Losses and amounts to be deducted should be indicated with a minus sign.)

b-2. Should Playful Pens produce holders on the weekend?
Yes
No
c. Independent of the situation in requirement (b), Playful Pens could expand the capability of machine 2 by adding additional workers to perform ongoing maintenance. This would increase its capacity by 100,000 holders per month. This would not affect sales price or fixed costs, but would increase variable cost to $4.62 per unit for all units produced.
c-1. Calculate the differential operating profit (loss). (Losses and amounts to be deducted should be indicated with a minus sign.)

c-2. Should Playful Pens expand Machine 2's capability by adding these additional workers?
Yes
No
Answer:
a) B. Machine 2
b) $220,000
b-2) Yes , positive differential profit.
c-1) $162,000
c-2) Yes , positive differential profit.
Explanation:
B) Differential revenues = $10.40 x 200,000 = $2,080,000
Differential costs:
Variable cost on new production = $5.20 x 200,000 = $1,040,000
Fixed costs = $820,000
differential profit = $2,080,000 - $1,040,000 - $820,000 = $220,000
c) Differential revenues = $10.40 x 100,000 = $1,040,000
Differential costs:
Variable cost increase on current production = ($4.62 - $4.10) x 800,000 = $416,000
Variable cost on new production = $4.62 x 100,000 = $462,000
differential profit = $1,040,000 - $878,000 = $162,000

Explanation:
The explanation has been attached.
It should be noted that:
Income tax expense = $448,000 × 29%
= $448,000 × 29/100
= $448,000 × 0.29
= $129,920
Other comprehensive income will be the unrealized holding gain on the security which will be:
= $89,000 × (100% - 29%)
= $89,000 × 71%
= $89,000 × 0.71
= $63,190

As a manager your organization is constantly confronted with a variety of changes in the market or a wide range of situations. You have to recruit and select a manager for a group of employees responsible for several related products. You have just read about Fiedler’s Contingency model and decided to use the LPC score to aid you in selecting a leader for the management group. You have interviewed four candidates for the job (Erin, Josh, Michael, Tabitha) and the scores for each of the candidates were Erin=high LPC, Josh=moderately high LPC, Michael=middle LPC, Tabitha=low LPC. Which of the candidates would you hire?A. ErinB. JoshC. MichaelD. TabithaE. None of these.
Answer:
C. Michael
Explanation:
The least preferred coworker scale is a method used to determine the leadership style of individuals. It was developed by Fred Fiedler and American scholar.
When a person gives positive feedback on coworkers they are more relationship oriented and get a high LPC score.
For those that give negative feedback on coworkers, they are task oriented and will get low LPC scores.
Relationship oriented style is used when employees are experienced and know what to do, while task oriented leadership is needed when the team is less experienced or results need to be delivered in a short time.
The organization is constantly confronted with a variety of changes in the market or a wide range of situations. So this requires a mix of both relationship and task oriented leadership to adapt to changing organisational needs.
Michael is the best option with middle LPC score.

Using ABC, compute the overhead cost per unit for each product line. (Round your final answers to 2 decimals places.)2. Determine the total cost per unit for each product line if the direct labor and direct materials costs per unit are $250 for Model 145 and $180 for Model 212. (Round your final answers to 2 decimals places.)3. Assume if the market price for Model 145 is $820 and the market price for Model 212 is $480, determine the profit or loss per unit for each model. (Round your final answers to 2 decimals places.)
Answer:
1. Overhead cost per unit for Model 145 is $515.59, and overhead cost per unit for Model 212 is $265.12.
2.Total cost per unit for Model 145 is $765.59, and total cost per unit for Model 212 is $445.12.
3. Profit per unit for Model 145 is $54.41, while profit per unit for Model 212 is $34.88.
Explanation:
1. Using ABC, compute the overhead cost per unit for each product line. (Round your final answers to 2 decimals places.)
Note: See the attached excel file for the computation.
2. Determine the total cost per unit for each product line if the direct labor and direct materials costs per unit are $250 for Model 145 and $180 for Model 212. (Round your final answers to 2 decimals places.)
Total cost per unit for each model = Overhead cost per unit + direct labor and direct materials costs per unit.
Therefore, we have:
Total cost per unit for Model 145 = $515.59 + $250 = $765.59
Total cost per unit for Model 212 = $265.12 + $180 = $445.12
3. Assume if the market price for Model 145 is $820 and the market price for Model 212 is $480, determine the profit or loss per unit for each model. (Round your final answers to 2 decimals places.)
Profit or loss per unit for each model = Market price per unit - Total cost per unit.
Therefore, we have:
Profit or loss per unit for Model 145 = $820 - $765.59 = $54.41 profit
Profit or loss per unit for Model 212 = $480 - 445.12 = $34.88 profit

Compute the break-even sales (units) for the overall enterprise product, E. units b. How many units of each product, baseball bats and baseball gloves, would be sold at the break-even point
Answer:
a)Break-even sales in units= 9,100 units
b)The number of units of each products:
Bat= 3,640 units
Gloves= 5,460 units
Explanation:
The break-even sales in unit = total general fixed cost/Average contribution per unit
Average contribution per unit = (40%× (40-30) )+ (60%×(100-60) )=28
Break-even Sales = $254,800/$28=9100 units
Break-even sales in units= 9,100 units
The number of units of each products:
Bat = 40%×9100 =3,640 units
Gloves = 60%× 9,100 =5,460 units
Bat= 3,640 units
Gloves= 5,460 units

Break-Even Sales Currently, the unit selling price of a product is $370, the unit variable cost is $300, and the total fixed costs are $1,001,000. A proposal is being evaluated to increase the unit selling price to $410. a. Compute the current break-even sales (units). units b. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units), assuming that the unit selling price is increased and all costs remain constant. units
Answer:
a. 14,300 units
b. 9,100 units
Explanation:
a. For computation of current break-even sales (units) first we will find out the contribution margin per unit which is shown below:-
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost
= $370 - $300
= $70
Current break-even sales (units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= $1,001,000 ÷ $70
= 14,300 units
b. For computation of anticipated break-even sales (units) first we will find out the contribution margin per unit which is shown below:-
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost
= $410 - $300
= $110
Anticipated break-even sales (units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= $1,001,000 ÷ $110
= 9,100 units
So, we have applied the above formula.
A firm has fixed assets of $28,000, long-term debt of $12,000, current liabilities of $4,000, current assets of $5,000 and equity of $17,000. What is the total of the assets side of the balance sheet of the firm
Answer:
$33,000
Explanation:
assets = liabilities + stockholders' equity
assets include current assets + non current or fixed assets = $5,000 + $28,000 = $33,000
liabilities and stockholders' equity include current liabilities + long term liabilities + equity = $4,000 + $12,000 + $17,000 = $33,000
both sides of the accounting equation must always be equal, that is meant by balance.
