(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) The Sawyer Corporation has $145,000 to invest and is considering two different projects, X and Y. The following data are available on the projects: Click here to view Exhibit 8B-1 and Exhibit 8B-2 to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using tables. Project X Project Y Cost of equipment needed now $ 145,000 Working capital requirement - $ 145,000 Annual cash operating inflows $ 37,000 $ 32,000 Salvage value in 5 years $ 6,000 - Both projects will have a useful life of 5 years; at the end of 5 years, the working capital will be released for use elsewhere. Sawyer's discount rate is 9%. The net present value of project Y is closest to:
Answer: -$20,529.60
Explanation:
Net Present value of Y = Present Value of Inflows - Present value of Outflows
Present Value of Y inflows
$32,000 inflows for 5 years. This is therefore an annuity
Present value of annuity = Annuity * Present value interest factor, 9%, 5 years
= 32,000 * 3.8897
= $124,470.40
Net Present Value = 124,470.40 - 145,000
= -$20,529.60

Delphi Company uses job-order costing. It applies overhead to jobs using a predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, Delphi estimated that it would work 37,000 machine-hours and incur $222,000 in manufacturing overhead cost. The following transactions were recorded for the year: a. Raw materials were issued for use in production, $367,000 ($345,000 direct and $22,000 indirect). b. Employee costs were incurred: direct labor, $309,000; indirect labor, $44,000; and administrative salaries, $155,000. c. Factory depreciation, $175,000. d. Selling costs, $140,000. e. Manufacture overhead was applied to jobs. The actual machine hours for the year were 35,000 hours. a. Compute the total manufacturing overhead cost applied to jobs during the year.
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $210,000
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 222,000/37,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $6 per machine hour
Now, we cal allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 6*35,000
Allocated MOH= $210,000
Jake owns a company called Boat Builders, LLC and one evening he took several of his employees out after work to a bar. After eating and drinking for several hours Jake invited them back to the Boat Builders premises so he and some of the employees could show off a boat they’d been working on. After arriving at Boat Builders they all continued to drink and two of the employees, Tyler and Mark, got into an argument. When Tyler went to use the bathroom Mark attacked him from behind causing him to lose consciousness and break a tooth. Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it and went to check on Tyler. Tyler sat up and asked what happened and Jake told him that Mark had attacked him from behind. About an hour passed by during which time Jake went out to his car and got his phone so he could play music for everyone. After an hour, Tyler and Mark began to argue again and they walked outside into the Boat Builders parking lot where Mark attacked Tyler again. Mark left and was later arrested for aggravated battery. Tyler regained consciousness after 10 minutes and drove home even though he was badly injured.
Does Tyler have a negligence claim against Boat Builders? Why or why not? A complete answer will be at least 5 sentences and mention critical facts.
Answer:
Yes, because Boat Builders, LLC failed to exercise a reasonable standard of care at their premises.
Explanation:
Remember, we are told, "Jake... invited them back to the Boat Builders premises," meaning they (Boat Bilders, LLC) had a duty of care responsibility toward all of his employees present.
Note we are told, "Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it," this was a moment that shows Jake's negligence because as the owner of Boat Builders he had a duty of care to ensure no one is hurt without their own fault within their premises (which included their "parking lot").
Gates entered into a contract with Mennonite Deaconess Home & Hospital for the installation of a new, "one-ply roofing system." The work was to be done by an installer chosen by Mennonite but approved by Gates. When the work was nearly complete, but before Gates had approved the work, the hospital paid the installer 90 percent of the balance due. After inspection, Gates did not approve, and in addition, the roof leaked and had to be replaced at the hospital’s expense. The hospital claimed that Gates was responsible for the quality of the work. Gates claimed that he could not be held accountable because service contracts are not covered by the Uniform Commercial Code. Did the contract involve goods or services, and will Gates be held responsible? [Mennonite Deaconess Home & Hospital Inc. v. Gates Engineering Co., 363 N.W.2d 155 (Nebraska)]
Answer:
The Supreme Court of Nebraska ruled that the core of the contract involved the sale of goods, since the Hospital was purchasing the one-ply roofing system. Even though labor was included, the contract was predominantly about a good, not a service. E.g. when you purchase a car, someone sells it to you, but the core of the contract is the sale of the car.
In other words, Gates was responsible for selling a roofing system (good) and he is responsible for any defects.
Newman Consulting Company maintains its records on a cash basis. During 2021 the following cash flows were recorded: cash received for services rendered to clients, $420,000; and cash paid for salaries, utilities, and advertising, $240,000, $35,000, and $12,000, respectively. You also determine that customers owed the company $52,000 and $60,000 at the beginning and end of the year, respectively, and that the company owed the utility company $6,000 and $4,000 at the beginning and end of the year, respectively. Determine accrual net income for the year
Answer: $143,000
Explanation:
Accrual Income for the year = Cash from clients + Closing receivable balance - Opening receivable balance - Salaries - (Utilities - Opening utilities owed + closing utilities owed) - Advertising
= 420,000 + 60,000 - 52,000 - 240,000 - (35,000 - 6,000 + 4,000) - 12,000
= $143,000
Rufus Inc. and Hardy Company are negotiating a nontaxable exchange of business properties. Rufus’s property has a $50,000 tax basis and a $77,500 FMV. Hardy’s property has a $60,000 tax basis and a $90,000 FMV. Which party to the exchange must pay boot to make the exchange work? How much boot must be paid? Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Rufus realize and recognize on the exchange, and what tax basis will Rufus take in the property acquired? Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Hardy realize and recognize on the exchange and what tax basis will Hardy take in the property acquired?
Answer:
Which party to the exchange must pay boot to make the exchange work?
Rufus must pay boot since the FMV of its property is less than the FMV of Hardy's property.How much boot must be paid?
$90,000 - $77,500 = $12,500Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Rufus realize and recognize on the exchange, and what tax basis will Rufus take in the property acquired?
Rufus doesn't have any gain, and the tax basis for the new asset will be $50,000 + $12,500 = $62,500Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Hardy realize and recognize on the exchange and what tax basis will Hardy take in the property acquired?
Since Hardy's property basis is $60,000 and it would be receiving $50,000 (Rufus's property) + $12,500 = $62,500, then it must recognize a $2,500 gain. The basis of Hardy's new property will be $62,500.You invest 1,000 in a project today. the project will generate a cash flow of 3186 three years from now. if the interest rate is 3%, what is the net present value of the project?
Answer:
NPV= $1,915.64
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow= $3,186
Number of periods= 3 years
Interest rate= 3%
Initial investment (Io)= $1,000
To calculate the net present value, we need to use the following formula:
NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]
NPV= -1,000 + (3,186/1.03^3)
NPV= $1,915.64
Smith and Jones start a business to build custom bicycles. Smith invests personal funds of $100,000 and Jones invests $70,000. Grandma Smith loans the company $24,000 with the provision it is to be paid back in 12 equal monthly payments plus 1.5% monthly interest on her original contribution. Smith and Jones agreed that ownership would be proportional to their equity investments. In addition, they borrow $40,000 from the bank at interest of 1.5% per month payable monthly. (They do not have to pay back the principal for five years, so ignore it.) They buy $120,000 worth of parts. They use $80,000 of those parts in the first month. They pay factory workers a total of $15,000 for the first month. They pay rent of $4,000 for the month for a factory. They each (not Grandma) draw salaries of $4,000 per month. They sell the resulting bicycles for $150,000. a. Prepare a balance sheet for day zero, that is, store is ready, people hired, parts on hand, money collected from bank, Grandma, Smith, and Jones. b. Prepare an income statement for the first month. c. Prepare a balance sheet for the last day of the first month. d.

Profit (added to reserves) $42,040
Short term loan $22,000
Long term loan $40,000
Total liabilities $274,040
Question d
Grandma is not an equity owner since she will be repaid after 1 year.
Therefore, percentage ownership by Smith, Jones and Grandma will be as follows in the ratio of their equity contribution.
Total capital contributed = 100,000 + 70,000 = 170,000
Smith percentage ownership = [tex]\frac{100,000}{170,000}[/tex] = 58.8%
Jones percentage ownership = [tex]\frac{70,000}{170,000}[/tex] = 41.2%
Grandma's ownership = 0% (no equity contribution).

You paid $10,000 for an investment that promises to pay $750 at the end of each of the next 5 years, then an additional lump sum payment of $10,000 at the end of the 5th year. What is the expected rate of return on this investment? Discuss.
a. 12.39%.b. 15.23%.c. 12.91%.d. 11.49%.e. 10.46%.
Answer:
7.50%
Explanation:
The formula to solve this problem is stated below.
[tex]p=\frac{A(1-(1+r)^{-n} }{r} + \frac{F}{(1+r)^{n} }[/tex]
where p = price paid = $10,000
A = annual coupon payment = $750
n = tenor = 5 years
F = face value paid at maturity = $10,000
r, the unknown = rate of return.
Using extrapolation, the value of r that resolves the problem = 7.5%. The is expected since the price of the bond is the same as face value. As such, the rate of return was the same as [tex]\frac{A}{p}=\frac{750}{10,000}[/tex] = 7.5%.
[tex]10,000=\frac{750(1-(1.075)^{-5} }{0.075} + \frac{10,000}{(1.075)^{5} }[/tex].
Troy Blackford smashed a slot machine while he was gambling at Prairie Meadows Casino. He was banned form the premises. Despite the ban, he later gambled at the casino and won $9,387. When he tried to collect his winnings, the casino refused to pay. He filed a suit for breach of contract, arguing that he and the casino had a contract because he had accepted its offer to gamble. Is there a contract between the casino and Blackford? Discuss
Answer:
No.
Explanation:
Technically when an individual enters into a casino and decides to play on of the games in the casino (such as the slot machines) they enter into an agreement with the casino stating that they agree to all losses and profits that may arise from using the machines. Unfortunately, being banned from the casino is also a form of contract which states that if the individual is prohibited from entering the casino or using any of its machines, and also nullifies any winnings gained from the casino's services (such as the slot machines). Therefore in this scenario, there is no contract between the casino and Blackford that supports his claim.

Cosi Company uses a job order costing system and allocates its overhead on the basis of direct labor costs. Cosi expects to incur $900,000 of overhead during the next period, and expects to use 60,000 labor hours at a cost of $10.00 per hour. What is Cosi Company's overhead application rate
Answer:
150%
Explanation:
Calculation for overhead application rate
First step is to calculate the Total Direct labor cost
Total Direct Labor Cost = 60,000 hours * $10/hr Total Direct Labor Cost= $600,000
Last step is to calculate Overhead application rate
Overhead application rate = $900,000/$600,000
Overhead application rate = 1.5*100
Overhead application rate=150%
Therefore Cosi Company's overhead application rate is 150%

b. If the Treasury also received $750 million in non-competitive bids, who will receive T-bills, in what quantity, and at what price?
Answer: $9909
Explanation:
Let the amount that will be paid be represented by y. The question can now be solved as:
(10000 - y)/10000 × 360/182 = 0.018
(10000-y)/10000 = 0.018 × 182/360
(10000 - y)/10000 = 0.0091
10000-y = 0.0091 × 10000
10000 - y = 91
y = 10000 - 91
y = $9909
At the end of the year, Breyer Associates had a credit balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts of $12,000 before adjustment. The balance in Breyer's gross accounts receivable is $600,000. Breyer's management estimates that 10% of its accounts receivable balance will not be collected. What journal entry should Breyer record to adjust its allowance for uncollectible accounts
Answer:
December 31, 202x, adjustment to allowance for doubtful accounts
Dr Bad debt expense 48,000
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 48,000
Explanation:
total estimated bad debt = $600,000 x 10% = $60,000
allowance for doubtful accounts balance = $12,000
this account must be increased by $60,000 - $12,000 = $48,000
Allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra asset account that decreases the net balance of accounts receivable. In this case, the net balance of accounts receivable after the adjustment = $600,000 - $60,000 = $540,000

consultant tells the factory supervisor that the lighting bill can be reduced to $8,000 a year if $50,000 is invested in new lighting in the building. If the new lighting system is installed, an incremental maintenance cost of $3,000 per year must be taken into account. The new lighting system has zero salvage value at the end of its life. If the old lighting system also has zero salvage value, and the new lighting system is estimated to have a life of 20 years, what is the net annual benefit for this investment in new lighting
Answer:
$2,306.02
Explanation:
two things are missing, so I looked for similar questions:
original lighting expenses = $20,000MARR = 12%initial investment = -$50,000
our annual cash flows = ($20,000 - $8,000) - $3,000 = $9,000
the PV of the cash flows = $9,000 x 7.4694 (PV annuity factor, 20 periods, 12%) = $67,224.60
we must calculate the NPV = -$50,000 + $67,224.60 = $17,224.60
net annual benefit = NPV / annuity factor = $17,224.60 / 7.4694 = $2,306.02
ABC common stock just paid a dividend of $2.50 per share. The ABC dividend is expected to grow 20% per year for two years, and then the growth rate will settle into a constant 6%. If the discount rate is 15% on ABC common stock, what should be the current share price
Answer and Explanation:
Given that the dividend will grow at 20% for two years and then a constant 6% at third year
1st year dividend at 20%= $3
Present value of the dividend for the first year=PV factor at 15%(from table) = $2.61
2nd year dividend at 20% = $3.60
Present value of the dividend for the second year = PV factor at 15%(from table) $2.72
3rd year dividend at 6% growth rate =
$42.40
Present value of the dividend for the third year = PV factor at 15% = $32.06
Current price of the stock =$2.61+$2.72+$32.06
=$37.39

Wesimann Co. issued 10-year bonds a year ago at a coupon rate of 7 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments and have a par value of $1,000. If the YTM on these bonds is 5.3 percent, what is the current bond price?
Answer:
$1,123.69
Explanation:
We can use the yield to maturity formula to determine the current market price of the bonds.
YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]
YTM = 5.3% / 2 = 2.65%coupon = $1,000 x 7% x 1/2 = $35face value = $1,000n = 9 years x 2 = 180.0265 = {35 + [(1,000 - M)/18]} / [(1,000 + M)/2]
0.0265 x [(1,000 + M)/2] = 35 + [(1,000 - M)/18]
0.0265 x (500 + 0.5M) = 35 + 55.56 - 0.05555M
13.25 + 0.01325M = 90.56 - 0.05555M

M = 77.31 / 0.0688 = $1,123.69
Suppose there are 100 million in the labor force, and 6 million unemployed people. During the next month, 200,000 people lose their jobs and 300,000 find jobs. The new total of employed persons is ________ and the new unemployment rate is ________.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the currently employed people and the unemployment rate:
Employed people= 100,000,000 - 6,000,000= 94,000,000
Unemployment rate= unemployed people / labor force
Unemployment rate= 6,000,000 / 100,000,000
Unemployment rate= 0.06= 6%
Now, the newly employed people and the unemployment rate:
Employed people= 94,000,000 + 300,000 - 200,000
Employed people= 94,100,000
Unemployment rate= 5,900,000 / 100,000,000
Unemployment rate= 0.059 = 5.9%

where I= interest, P= principal amount, r = interest rate, t is time
for Neil interest will be= $15,000 x 3/100 x 10
=$15,000 x 0.03 x 10
=$4500
Neil will have principal + interest amount
=$4,500 + $15,000
=$19,500
John invested in a compound interest account.
The amount after ten years will be
The formula for compound interest is
FV = PV × (1+r)^n
where FV = Future Value
PV = Present Value
r = annual interest rate
n = number of periods
After ten years, John will have
Fv= $15,000 x (1 + 3/100)^10
Fv= $15,000 x (1.03)^10
FV =$15,000 x 1.34391
Fv = $15,158.75
John will be able to clear his mortgage.
John will be able to repay the amount from this investment easier than Neil.
Because Neil has invested in simple interest, his amount at the end of 10 years will be equal to the interest earned and the principal amount.
According to the problem:
P (principal) = $15,000, I = 3%=0.03 and t =10 years
Therefore, I = P x r x t = 15,000 x 0.03 x 10 = $4,500
The amount at the end of 10 years
= principal + interest
= 15,000 + 4,500
= $19,500
On the other hand, John has invested his $15,000 in 3 percent compound interest compounded annually for 10 years.
According to the problem: P
= $15,000
I
= 3% = 0.03
n
= 10
Therefore, according to the formula
M = P( 1 + i )n where M is the final amount at the end of the term, we have
M = 15,000(1+0.03)10
= 20,158.75 (approximately).
= $20,158.75
Therefore, John will be able to repay the debt from this investment easily, because Neil is $500 short of the required amount.
At LK Corporation, budgeted sales in units for January, February, and March are 15,000, 20,000, and 18,000 units, respectively. If the selling price per unit is $5, what is expected sales revenue for March
Answer:
$90,000
Explanation:
The expected sales revenue for March is computed as
Expected sales revenue in March = budgeted sales in March × Selling price per unit
= 18,000 units × $5
= $90,000
Please note that the information given for January and February are not relevant since we are asked to compute expected sales revenue in March.
Rocky Mountain Bottling Company produces a soft drink that is sold for a dollar. At production and sales of 1,000,000 units, the company pays $700,000 in production costs, half of which are fixed costs. At that volume, general, selling, and administrative costs amount to $320,000, of which $70,000 are fixed costs. What is the amount of contribution margin per unit
Answer:
contribution margin per unit = $0.40
Explanation:
total variable production costs = $350,000
total fixed production costs = $350,000
total variable S&A expenses = $250,000
total fixed S&A expenses = $70,000
total costs = $1,020,000
total fixed costs = $420,000
total variable costs = $600,000
sales price = $1
variable cost per unit = $600,000 / 1,000,000 = $0.60
contribution margin per unit = $1 - $0.60 = $0.40
