The Cheyenne Hotel in Big Sky, Montana, has accumulated records of the total electrical costs of the hotel and the number of occupancy-days over the last year. An occupancy-day represents a room rented for one day. The hotel's business is highly seasonal, with peaks occurring during the ski season and in the summer.

Month Occupancy-Days Electrical Costs
January 1,736 $4,127
February 1,904 $4,207
March 2,356 $5,083
April 960 $2,857
May 360 $1,871
June 744 $2,696
July 2,108 $4,670
August 2,406 $5,148
September 840 $2,691
October 124 $1,588
November 720 $2,454
December 1,364 $3,529

Required:
a. Using the high-low method, estimate the fixed cost of electricity per month and the variable cost of electricity per occupancy-day.
b. What other factors other than occupancy-days are likely to affect the variation in electrical costs from month to month?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Total cost= 1,395 + 1.56x

x= number of units of activity

Explanation:

To calculate the unitary and fixed costs, we need to use the following formulas:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (5,148 - 1,588) / (2,406 - 124)

Variable cost per unit= $1.56

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 5,148 - (1.56*2,406)

Fixed costs= $1,395

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 1,588 - (1.56*124)

Fixed costs= $1,395

The total cost is given by:

Total cost= 1,395 + 1.56x

x= number of units of activity

The electrical costs can vary with the season. In summer a higher electricity use is required to cool down the rooms and, some artifacts such as freezers and refrigerators usage increase. In winter the days are shorter, artificial lighting increases.

What was the company's plantwide predetermined overhead rate? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $11.15 per machine hour

Explanation:

Molding Fabrication Total

Estimated total machine-hours used 2,500 1,500 4,000

Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead $ 14,000 $ 17,400 $ 31,400

Estimated variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $ 3.00 $ 3.80

To calculate a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:

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

Total fixed overhead= $31,400

Total variable overhead= (3*2,500) + (3.8*1,500)= $13,200

Total Machine hours= 4,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (31,400 + 13,200) / 4,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $11.15 per machine hour

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

May 1:

Assets (Cash + $15,000) = Liabilities + Equity (Common Stock + $15,000)

May 2:

Assets (Cash - $600) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings - $600)

May 3:

May 30:

Assets (Cash - $180) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings - $180)

Explanation:

The accounting equation shows that Assets = Liabilities + Equity.  This equation is the basis of the double-system of accounting. It is always in balance when each transaction is correctly posted.  The implication is that every business transaction affects, in two ways, either the assets side or the liabilities and equity side or both.

Molly is trying to talk Sharon into going to the dance with her brother, who has a big crush on Sharon. Unfortunately for Molly, there is a statute in her state outlawing talking on a cell phone while operating a motor vehicle. Molly crashes into the side of Sam's new convertible when she looks down to pick up a can of soda she just dropped onto her new jeans. A police officer just down the street comes over to investigate. Molly explains to him that it was difficult to hold the cell phone in one hand, the soda in the other, and also drive. The officer was not impressed. Around that time Sam comes along. He is furious regarding the significant dent in his new car. Molly says she has insurance and that she will cover the whole incident. Sam says that is insufficient.

On January 1, 2020, Stream Company acquired 30 percent of the outstanding voting shares of Q-Video, Inc., for $770,000. Q-Video manufactures specialty cables for computer monitors. On that date, Q-Video reported assets and liabilities with book values of $1.9 million and $700,000, respectively. A customer list compiled by Q-Video had an appraised value of $300,000, although it was not recorded on its books. The expected remaining life of the customer list was five years with straight-line amortization deemed appropriate. Any remaining excess cost was not identifiable with any particular asset and thus was considered goodwill. Q-Video generated net income of $250,000 in 2020 and a net loss of $100,000 in 2021. In each of these two years, Q-Video declared and paid a cash dividend of $15,000 to its stockholders. During 2020, Q-Video sold inventory that had an original cost of $100,000 to Stream for $160,000. Of this balance, $80,000 was resold to outsiders during 2020, and the remainder was sold during 2021. In 2021, Q-Video sold inventory to Stream for $175,000. This inventory had cost only $140,000. Stream resold $100,000 of the inventory during 2021 and the rest during 2022. For 2020 and then for 2021, compute the amount that Stream should report as income from its investment in Q-Video in its external financial statements under the equity method. (Enter your answers in whole dollars and not in millions. Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Answers

Answer:

Stream Company

The amount that Stream Company should report as income from its investment in Q-Video in its external financial statements under the equity method:

2020 = $75,000

2021 = ($30,000)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Equity share in Q-Video, Inc. = 30%

Cost of equity investment = $770,000

Q-Video Profits and dividends     Stream's share                

2020 net income = $250,000     $75,000 ($250,000 * 30%)

2021 net loss of $100,000          ($30,000) ($100,000 * 30%)

2020 dividends = $15,000             $4,500 ($15,000 * 30%)

2021 dividends = $15,000              $4,500 ($15,000 * 30%)

b)The equity method is used by Stream Company because its investment in Q-Video, Inc. is less than 51% and more than 20%.  Under the equity method, Stream accounts for its share of net income and net loss.  The investment is initially recorded at cost.  Adjustments are then made to the cost balance at the end of every period by increasing it with the share of net income and decreasing it with its share of net loss and dividends received.

Consider two neighboring island countries called Euphoria and Contente. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce corn, jeans, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of corn or jeans that can be produced using 1 hour of labor.

Country Corn (Bushels per hour of labor) Jeans (Pairs per hour of labor)
Euphoria 4 16
Contente 6 12

Initially, suppose Contente uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 3 million hours per week to produce corn, while Euphoria uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 1 million hours per week to produce corn. Consequently, Euphoria produces 12 million pairs of jeans and 16 million bushels of corn, and Contente produces 6 million pairs of jeans and 36 million bushels of corn. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of jeans and corn it produces.

Euphoria's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of corn is___________ pair of jeans, and Contente's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of corn is__________ pair of jeans. Therefore,___________ has a comparative advantage in the production of corn, and__________ has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans.

Answers

Answer:

4

2

Contente

Euphoria

Explanation:

Euphoria's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of corn is [tex]\frac{16}{4}[/tex] = 4 pair of jeans, and Contente's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of corn is [tex]\frac{12}{6}[/tex] = 2 pair of jeans. Therefore,  Contente has a comparative advantage in the production of corn, and Euphoria  has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans.

Each scenario below gives some information about price elasticity of demand for a firm. Use this information to answer the questions. Round answers to two places after the decimal where applicable. Honest Abe's Used Cars estimates the price elasticity of demand for their cars to be 4.60 . Last month, Abe tried a new marketing scheme which decreased the number of cars sold by 67 %.

Abe must have_________ prices. Therefore, Abe's total revenue ____________ Abe's prices must have changed by:________%
At Webs-R-Us, a website design company, the new manager has decided to increase the price of Webs-R-Us services by 45%.
If Webs-R-Us has a price elasticity of demand at 0.70, we can expected the number of websites designed to ___________

Answers

Answer:

increased

fell

14.57%

decrease

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.

Honest Abe's Used Cars has an elastic demand because its coefficient of elasticity is greater than one. Because demand is elastic, a rise in price would lead to a decrease in the number of cars sold. If price is increased, demand would fall more than the change in price, so total revenue would fall.

4.6 = 0.67 / percentage change in price

Percentage change in price = 0.67 / 4.6 = 0.1457 = 14.57%

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Webs-R-Us services has an inelastic demand.

If prices are increased, demand would fall but it would fall less than the increase in price

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded

2. Management by exception
A. means that only unfavorable differences will be investigated.
B. means that material differences will be investigated.
C. means that all differences will be investigated.
D. causes managers to be buried under voluminous paperwork.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the total manufacturing cost is shown below:

As we know that

Total manufacturing cost is

= Direct raw material used + direct labor cost + manufacturing overhead cost

= ($260,000 + $800,000 - $310,000) + $670,000 + $640,000

= $2,060,000

2. The management of exception means examining the financial and operational business results and considered the issues that faced by the company by having attention on it. ALso it considered teh differences arise from the expected amount

So here means that non-favorable difference would be investigated or material difference would be investigated

Keuka Studies does custom metal sculptures of horses and other animals. A horse sculpture is composed of numerous parts. They use a lathe to construct two types of parts. The "Body" part is used to support the torso of the horse and the "Leg" part is used to support the legs. Each horse sculpture needs 1 Body part and 4 Leg parts. Switching between either of the types of parts requires 12 minutes. Once ready to produce, the lathe produces a Body part in 3 minutes and a single Leg part in 3 minutes. The lathe only makes horse parts. For parts (a)-(d) assume Keuka operates a cyclic schedule in which they make 100 Body parts and then 400 Leg parts. Furthermore, assume the lathe is the bottleneck. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.
a. What is the maximum number of horse sculptures Keuka can make per hour? Do not round intermediate calculations. Enteryour answer as a percentage rounded to 2 decimal places.
b. What is the utilization (%) of the lathe?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of the maximum number of horse sculptures can make per hour is shown below:

= (12 × 2) + (100 × 3) + (400 × 3)

= 24 + 300 + 1200

= 1524 minutes

Now cycle time in hours

= 1524 ÷ 60

= 25.40 hours

Number of horse scupltures could made is

= 400 ÷ 4

= 100

In per hour, it would be

= 100 ÷ 25.40 hours

= 3.94 hours

b. The utilization rate is

= (100 × 3) + (400 × 3) ÷ 1524 minutes

= 300 + 1200  ÷ 1524 minutes

= 1500 ÷ 1524 minutes

= 98.43%

The general price level is 150.00 and people expect it to increase to 156.00 next year. Therefore, the expected rate of inflation equals percent. Moreover, there is a one-year bond that promises to pay $107,000.00 next year and is selling for $100,000.00 in the bond market today. So, the nominal interest rate equals percent, and the ex-ante real interest rate on this bond equals percent. Because of some news about the state of the economy, people revise their expectations of the future price level to 159.00. According to the Fisher Effect, the price of the bond today will change to_______ dollars.

Answers

Answer:

$98,165.14

Explanation:

Note: There are missing word but the full question is attached as picture below

Here, Initial Nominal Interest rate = 7%

Inflation expectation= 4%

So, real return = 3%

Now, investors would want same real return

New inflation = (159 - 150)/150 *100 = 6%

Nominal interest rate = 6 %+ 3% = 9%

Price after 1 year = $107,000

So, current price changes to = $107,000/(1+0.09) = $107,000/1.09 = $98,165.14

Kevin Jones, of Elon, North Carolina, is single and recently graduated from law school. He is employed and earns $9,000 per month, an awesome salary for someone only 26 years old. He also has $1,600 withheld for federal income tax, $520 for state income taxes, $690 for Medicare and Social Security taxes, and $220 for health insurance every month. Kevin has outstanding student loans of almost $80,000 on which he pays about $950 per month and a 0% loan on an auto loan payment of $300 on a Ford Fusion Hybrid he purchased new during law school. He is considering taking out a loan to buy a Kawasaki motorcycle.

Required:
a. What is kevins debt payments to disposable income ratio?
b. Based on your answer to part (a), how would you advise kevin about his plan.

Answers

Answer:

Kevin Jones

a. Kevin's debt payments to disposable income ratio = 21%

b. The first question that Kevin should ask himself is whether he actually requires the Kawasaki motorcycle and for what purpose.  Since he is already paying for a new auto that he purchased during law school, Kevin should try to limit his expenses to enable him save money for retirement.  He has enough debts now.  He should consider paying off his loans or rather investing some reasonable savings.  The earlier he does, the better for him.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Monthly salary = $9,000

Monthly Deductions:

Federal income tax withheld =       $1,600

State income taxes =                           520

Medicare & Social Security taxes =    690

Health insurance =                              220

Total deductions =                         $3,030

Monthly Disposable income = $5,970 ($9,000 - $3,030)

Debt payments:

Outstanding student loans = $80,000

Monthly repayment of student loans = $950

Auto loan = $300

Total monthly debt payments = $1,250

Debt payments to Disposable income ratio = $1,250/$5,970 = 0.209

= 21%

The 2018 balance sheet of Speith’s Golf Shop, Inc., showed long-term debt of $5 million, and the 2019 balance sheet showed long-term debt of $5.25 million. The 2019 income statement showed an interest expense of $165,000. The 2018 balance sheet showed $510,000 in the common stock account and $4.6 million in the additional paid-in surplus account. The 2019 balance sheet showed $550,000 and $4.8 million in the same two accounts, respectively. The company paid out $410,000 in cash dividends during 2019. Suppose you also know that the firm’s net capital spending for 2019 was $1,370,000, and that the firm reduced its net working capital investment by $69,000. What was the firm's 2019 operating cash flow, or OCF?

Answers

Answer:

$1,386,000

Explanation:

The computation of the operating cash flow is shown below:

But before that following calculations must be done

Cash Flow to Creditors

Cash Flow to Creditors = Interest Expenses Paid - Net Increase in Long term debt

= Interest Expenses Paid - [Ending Long term debt  - BEginning Long term Debt]

= $165,000 - [$5,250,000 - $5,000,000]

= $165,000 - $250,000

= -$85,000

Cash Flow to Stockholders

Cash Flow to Stockholders = Dividend Paid - Net New Equity

= Dividend Paid - [(Ending Common stock  + Ending Additional paid-in surplus account ) - (Opening Common stock  + OPening Additional paid-in surplus account )

= $410,000 - [($550,000 + $4,800,000) - ($510,000 + $4,6000,000)]

= $410,000 - [$5,350,000 - $5,110,000]

= $410,000 - $240,000

= $170,000  

Cash Flow from assets

Cash Flow from assets = Cash Flow to Creditors + Cash Flow to Stockholders

= -$85,000 + $170,000

= $85,000

Operating Cash Flow  

= Operating Cash flows - Change in Net Working capital - Net Capital Spending

$85,000 = Operating cash flow - (-$69,000) - $1,370,000

= $85,000 - $69,000 + $13,70,000

= $1,386,000

Amazon Company uses predetermined departmental overhead rates based on direct labor cost to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. The predetermined overhead rate for Department A this year was 200% of direct labor cost. The predetermined overhead rate for Department B this year was 50% of direct labor cost. Job Delta, which used labor time in both departments, was charged with the following costs.
Dept A Dept B
Direct materials $50,000 $10.000
Direct labor ? $60.000
Manufacturing overhead $80.000 ?
What was the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job Delta?
a. $270,000
b. $360,000
c. $390.000
d. $480.000

Answers

Answer:

a. $270,000

Explanation:

Department A:

Manufacturing overhead=200% of direct labor

80000 = 200% of direct labor

So, direct labor = 80000/200%=$40,000

Department B:

Manufacturing overhead=50% of direct labor

So, Manufacturing overhead = 50%*60000=$30,000

Total manufacturing cost = Material cost + Labor cost + Manufacturing overhead

- Material cost = 50000+10000=$60,000

- Direct labor cost = 40000+60000=$100,000

- Manufacturing overhead = 80000+30000=$110,000

Total manufacturing cost = $60,000 + $100,000 + $110,000

Total manufacturing cost = $270,000

Stewart owns a home with a replacement cost of $300,000. He purchased $200,000 of property insurance on the house with a $1,000 deductible for all losses. The house caught on fire and sustained $100,000 worth of damage. The actual cash value (ACV) of the damaged portion of the property was $80,000. How much will Stewart receive as reimbursement for the loss

Answers

Answer:

$82,333

Explanation:

The computation of the amount received as reimbursement for the loss is given below:

Given that

House Replacement= $300,000

80% of replacement cost = 80% of $300,000 = $240,000

Value of insurance = $200,000

Now

Amount of claim = [($200,000 ÷  $240,000) × $100,000] - $1,000 (deductible for all losses)

= $83,333 - $1,000

= $82,333
