Answer and Explanation:
Direct material cost variance-
Purchasing
Direct material efficiency variance-
Production
Direct labor cost variance- Human Resources
Direct labor efficiency variance-Production
The $1650 favorable direct material cost variance indicates that actual direct materials cost per pound was less than standard cost per pound. This increased Martin Inc's operating income by 1560.
Therefore Martin Inc bought lower than they normally purchase raw materials(pounds) which invariably increased profit(operating income)
The 650 unfavorable Direct Materials efficiency variance indicates that the actual pounds used was more than the total pounds allowed to manufacture 6500 glasses. This decreased Martin Inc's operating income by $650.
Efficiency was low as more materials were used than planned, therefire more cost and less profit
The $9100 favorable direct labor price variance means that Martin Inc's employees were paid less than budgeted. This increased Martin Inc's operating income by $9100.
Employees(labour) cost lower than expected hence higher profit(operating income)
The $11,700 favouravle direct labor efficiency variance means that it actually took fewer direct labor hours than were budgeted to produce 6500 glasses. Thus increased Martin Inc's operating income by $11,700.
Labour hours were lower than expected hence less cost more profit
e market for iPhones, the following two changes take place: (1) the cost of making iPhones rises, and (2) customers begin to prefer Android-platform smartphones over iPhones. What happens to equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity
Answer: The equilibrium price is indeterminate, but the equilibrium quantity falls.
Explanation:
As a result of the cost of iPhones rising, the production and supply for iPhones will decrease in the market to save costs. This will cause the supply curve to shift to the left.
With customers preferring android to iPhones, the demand for iPhones will decrease which will shift the demand curve left as well.
Looking at the graph attached, notice how when both supply and demand shift left at the same time, equilibrium quantity will reduce and equilibrium price however will remain indeterminate and dependent on the magnitude of the shift.
At the end of the year, a company has a $1,200 debit balance in Manufacturing Overhead. As a result, the company:a.makes an adjusting journal entry by debiting Manufacturing Overhead for $1,200 and crediting Manufacturing Overhead for $1,200. b.makes no adjusting journal entry because the difference between actual overhead and the amount applied are a normal part of job order costing and will average out over the next year. c.makes an adjusting journal entry by debiting Manufacturing Overhead Expense for $1,200 and crediting Manufacturing Overhead for $1,200. d.makes an adjusting journal entry by debiting Cost of Goods Sold for $1,200 and crediting Manufacturing Overhead for $1,200.
Answer:
d. makes an adjusting journal entry by debiting Cost of Goods Sold for $1,200 and crediting Manufacturing Overhead for $1,200.
Explanation:
The debit balance of $1,200 in the Manufacturing Overhead account represents under-applied overhead. To ensure that the Cost of Goods Sold is accurate, the debit balance is debited to the Cost of Goods Sold while the corresponding credit goes to the Manufacturing Overhead account.

Suppose that Sophia expects to serve 15 percent more meals in the next quarter. Unit variable costs are expected to remain unchanged. However, Sophia knows that if the restaurant serves over 5,500 meals in a quarter, she must hire an additional manager (part-time) at a cost of $6,450 for the quarter. Other fixed costs are expected to increase by 10 percent. Calculate the unit cost and the total cost if 5,750 meals are served next quarter
Answer:
$87,975
15.30
Explanation:
The computation of unit cost and total cost is shown below:-
Managers' salary ($22,000 + $6,450) $28,450
Rent $18,000
Depreciation on equipment $2,000
Other fixed cost (3,000 × 1.1) 3,300
Total Fixed cost $51,750
Total Cost = $36,225 + $51,750
= $87,975
Unit Cost = 87,975 ÷ 5,750
= 15.30
Osgood Company, which applies overhead at the rate of 190% of direct material cost, began work on job no. 101 during June. The job was completed in July and sold during August, having accumulated direct material and labor charges of $27,000 and $15,000, respectively. On the basis of this information, the total overhead applied to job no. 101 amounted to:
Answer: $51300
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Osgood applies overhead at rate of 190% of direct cost material and we've been given the direct cost material as $27, 000. Therefore, the total overhead applied to the job will be:
= $27000 × 190%
= $27000 × 1.9
= $51300
Southern Imports is an all-equity firm with a beta of 1.32. The firm is considering a new project that entails less risk than its current operations and thus management feels that the firm's beta should be lowered by .18 when assigning a discount rate to this project. The market rate of return is 9.4 percent and the risk-free rate is 2.8 percent. What discount rate should be assigned to this project
Answer:
The answer is "10.32%".
Explanation:
The actual beta firm =1.32
if new beta reduced by 1.8
beta firm= 1.14(1.32-1.8)
market return= 9.4%
risk-free return=2.8%
formula:
[tex]\to \text{Discount rate= risk} +beta \times (return-risk)}[/tex]
[tex]=2.8+1.14(9.4-2.8)\\\\=10.32%[/tex]
D0 is currently $3.00, Ke is 8 percent, and g is 5 percent. Under Plan A, D0 would be immediately increased to $3.40 and Ke and g will remain unchanged. Under Plan B, D0 will remain at $3.00 but g will go up to 6 percent and Ke will remain unchanged. a. Compute P0 (price of the stock today) under Plan A. Note D1 will be equal to D0 × (1 + g) or $3.40 (1.05). Ke will equal 8 percent, and g will equal 5 percent. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a.
P0 = 3.4 * (1+0.05) / (0.08 - 0.05)
P0 = $119
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
Do is dividend today g is the growth rate r is the required rate of returna.
P0 = 3.4 * (1+0.05) / (0.08 - 0.05)
P0 = $119

A company distributes a product that sells for $50 per unit. Variable expenses are $10 per unit, and fixed expenses total $15,000 annually. Assume that the company sold 4,000 units last year. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price, combined with a $30,000 increase in advertising expenditures, would increase annual unit sales by 50%. If these changes were made, by how much would net operating income increase or decrease?
Answer:
Income will increase by $20,000.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the current income:
Current income= 4,000*(50 - 10) - 15,000= $145,000
Now, the new selling price, fixed costs, and sales in units:
Selling price= 50*0.9= $45
Fixed costs= $45,000
Sales= 4,000*1.5= 6,000
New income= 6,000*(45 - 10) - 45,000= $165,000
Difference= 165,000 - 145,000= 20,000
Income will increase by $20,000.
If the interest rate this year is 8.8% and the interest rate next year will be 10.8%, what is the future value of $1 after 2 years? What is the present value of a payment of $1 to be received in 2 years?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The interest rate this year is 8.8% and the interest rate next year will be 10.8%.
a) To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV1= 1*1.088= 1.088
FV2= 1.088*1.108=$1.206
b) To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula:
PV=FV/(1+i)^n
PV2= 1/1.108= 0.903
PV1= 0.903/1.088= $0.83
Yoshi Co.'s 12/31/2020 inventory on a FIFO basis was $980,000. The following information is available: Estimated selling price is $1,020,000; Estimated cost of disposal is $40,000; Normal profit margin is $120,000; and Current replacement cost is $900,000. At 12/31/2020, assuming Yoshi uses the loss method, what amount of loss should Yoshi record from applying LCM
Answer:
Yoshi Co.
The amount of loss that Yoshi Co. should record from applying LCM (the lower of Cost or Market price) is:
$40,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
FIFO inventory on 12/31/2020 = $980,000
Current replacement cost = $900,000
Net realizable value = $980,000 ($1,020,000 - $40,000)
Normal profit margin = $120,000
Loss to be recognized based on current replacement cost = FIFO purchase cost minus Current replacement cost
= $80,000 ($980,000 - $900,000)
b) Under the US GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) of prudence and conservatism, the loss of $80,000 must be recognized in the current period, since the inventory will be booked at $900,000, its current replacement cost, which is lower than the FIFO purchase cost of $980,000.

Wholemark is an Internet order business that sells one popular New Year greeting card once a year. The cost of the paper on which the card is printed is $0.40 per card, and the cost of printing is $0.10 per card. The company receives $3.75 per card sold. Since the cards have the current year printed on them, unsold cards have no salvage value. Their customers are from the four areas: Los Angeles, Santa Monica, Hollywood, and Pasadena. Based on past data, the number of customers from each of the four regions is normally distributed with mean 2,300 and standard deviation 200. (Assume these four are independent.)
What is the optimal production quantity for the card?
Answer:
≈ 9644 quantity of card
Explanation:
given data:
n = 4 regions/areas
mean demand = 2300
standard deviation = 200
cost of card (c) = $0.5
selling price (p) = $3.75
salvage value of card ( v ) = $ 0
The optimal production quantity for the card can be calculated using this formula below
= u + z (0.8667 ) * б
= 9200 + 1.110926 * 400
≈ 9644 quantity of card
First we have to find u
u = n * mean demand
= 4 * 2300 = 9200
next we find the value of Z
Z = ( [tex]\frac{p-c}{p-v}[/tex] )
= ( 3.75 - 0.5 ) / 3.75 = 0.8667
Z( 0.8667 ) = 1.110926 ( using excel formula : NORMSINV (0.8667 )
next we find б
б = 200[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex] = 400
Target Profit Outdoors Company sells a product for $110 per unit. The variable cost is $65 per unit, and fixed costs are $288,000. Determine (a) the break-even point in sales units and (b) the break-even point in sales units if the company desires a target profit of $54,720.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Target Profit Outdoors Company sells a product for $110 per unit. The variable cost is $65 per unit, and fixed costs are $288,000.
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 288,000 / (110 - 65)
Break-even point in units= 6,400
Now, we incorporate the desired profit in the formula:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (288,000 + 54,720) / 45
Break-even point in units= 7,616 units

Simpkins Corporation does not pay any dividends because it is expanding rapidly and needs to retain all of its earnings. However, investors expect Simpkins to begin paying dividends, with the first dividend of $2.00 coming 3 years from today. The dividend should grow rapidly - at a rate of 80% per year - during Years 4 and 5. After Year 5, the company should grow at a constant rate of 5% per year. If the required return on the stock is 13%, what is the value of the stock today (assume the market is in equilibrium with the required return equal to the expected return)
Answer:
The answer is "$ 52.17"
Explanation:
Third-year dividend, [tex]D_3 = \$ \ 2.00[/tex] Increasing at [tex]80 \ \%[/tex] per year in years 4 and 5.
[tex]\to D_4 = 2.00(1.80)=3.6\\\\\to D_5 = 3.6 (1.80) = 4.48\\\\[/tex]
Now, rising at a steady rate of 5 percent per year in year 6
[tex]\to D_6 = 6.48(1.05) =6.804[/tex]
[tex]\text{Price of the stock} = \frac{Expected \ dividend}{(Required \ return - growth \ rate)}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{6.804}{(0.13 - 0.05)}\\\\ =\frac{6.804}{(0.08)}\\\\ = \$ \ 85.05[/tex]
The present value of all flows of cash:
[tex]= \frac{2.00}{(1.13)^3} + \frac{3.6}{(1.13)^4} + \frac{(4.48+ 85.05)}{(1.13)^5}\\\\ = \frac{2.00}{1.442897} + \frac{3.6}{1.63047361} + \frac{(4.48+ 85.05)}{1.84243518}\\\\ = \frac{2.00}{1.442897} + \frac{3.6}{1.63047361} + \frac{(89.53)}{1.84243518}\\\\= 1.38 +2.20+ 48.59\\\\=52.17[/tex]
