Overtime pay, however, is paid in the next biweekly period. Bonita accrues salaries expense only at its December 31 year end. Data relating to salaries earned in December 2020 are as follows: Last payroll was paid on 12/26/20, for the 2-week period ended 12/26/20. Overtime pay earned in the 2-week period ended 12/26/20 was $26000. Remaining work days in 2020 were December 29, 30, 31, on which days there was no overtime. The recurring biweekly salaries total $445000.
Assuming a five-day workweek, Bonita should record a liability at December 31, 2020 for accrued salaries of:________
Answer:
$159,500
Explanation:
Liability for accrued salaries = $26,000 + ($445,000/10*3)
Liability for accrued salaries = $26,000 + $133,500
Liability for accrued salaries = $159,500
So, Bonita should record a liability at December 31, 2020 for accrued salaries of $159,500

Last year Kruse Corp had $440,000 of assets (which is equal to its total invested capital), $403,000 of sales, $28,250 of net income, and a debt-to-total-capital ratio of 39%. The new CFO believes the firm has excessive fixed assets and inventory that could be sold, enabling it to reduce its total assets and total invested capital to $252,500. The firm finances using only debt and common equity. Sales, costs, and net income would not be affected, and the firm would maintain the same capital structure (but with less total debt). By how much would the reduction in assets improve the ROE
Answer:
The reduction in assets would improve the ROE by 7.81%.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Previous equity = (100% - Debt-to-total-capital ratio) * Previous total invested capital = (100% - 39%) * $440,000 = 61% * $440,000 = $268,400
Previous return on equity (ROE) = (Net income / Previous equity) * 100 = ($28,250 / $268,400) * 100 = 10.53%
New equity = (100% - Debt-to-total-capital ratio) * New total invested capital = (100% - 39%) * $252,500 = 61% * $252,500 = $154,025
New ROE = (Net income / New equity) * 100 = ($28,250 / $154,025) * 100 = 18.34%
Change in ROE = New ROE - Previous ROE = 18.34% - 10.53% = 7.81%
Since change in ROE is 7.81% and positive, this implies that the reduction in assets would improve the ROE by 7.81%.
BSW Corporation has a bond issue outstanding with an annual coupon rate of 5.4 percent paid quarterly and four years remaining until maturity. The par value of the bond is $1,000. Determine the fair present value of the bond if market conditions justify a 11 percent, compounded quarterly, required rate of return. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Answer:
$820.74
Explanation:
Rate = 11%/4 = 0.0275
Nper = 4*4 = 16
Pmt = 1000*5.4%*1/4 = $13.50
Fv = $1,000.00
Present value of bond = PV (Rate, Nper, Pmt, Fv)
Present value of bond = PV(0.0275, 16, 13.50, 1000)
Present value of bond = $820.74
So, the fair present value of the bond if market conditions justify a 11 percent, compounded quarterly is $820.74
Calculating Earnings per Share Little, Inc., reported earnings of $162,000 for 2013, and at the end of the year, had the following securities outstanding: 60,000 shares of common stock. (The year-end share price was $25 per share). Employee stock options for the purchase of 8,000 common shares at an exercise price of $22 per share. (The options are fully vested).
(a) Calculate the basic earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013. Round to two decimal places.
(b) Calculate the diluted earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013. Round to two decimal places.
Answer:
(a) Basic earnings per share = $2.70 per share
(b) Diluted earnings per share = $2.38 per share
Explanation:
(a) Calculate the basic earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013. Round to two decimal places.
Basic earnings per share = Earnings / Number of shares of common stock .......... (1)
Where;
Earnings = $162,000
Number of shares of common stock = 60,000
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Basic earnings per share = $162,000 / 60,000 = $2.70 per share
(b) Calculate the diluted earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013. Round to two decimal places.
Diluted earnings per share = Earnings / (Number of shares of common stock + Number of common shares for employee stock options) ............ (2)
Where;
Earnings = $162,000
Number of shares of common stock = 60,000
Number of common shares for employee stock options = 8,000
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
Diluted earnings per share = $162,000 / (60,000 + 8,000) = $162,000 / 68,000 = $2.38 per share
Answer: See Explanation
Explanation:
a. Calculate the basic earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 201
(Net income - Preferred stock dividend) / Weighted SVF shaers of the common stock outstanding
= ($162,000 - 0) / 60,000
= $162000 / 60000
= $2.70
b. Calculate the diluted earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013
= ($162,000 - 0) / (60,000+8,000)
= $162000 / 68000
= $2.38

Toby Toy Store has noticed the following items that need to be considered for its income statement for the year ended December 31, 2019: Commissions of $3,000 for salespeople who made sales in December will be paid on January 3, 2020.
The phone bill of $400 for December was received and will be paid on January 20, 2020.
The store rent of $2,000 for January 2020 was paid on December 28, 2019.
At the beginning of November, Toby paid $1,500 for advertising in a monthly magazine that is distributed in November and December of 2019, and January of 2020.
What is the proper amount of expenses to be included in the income statement for the year?
a. $4,400.
b. $6,900.
c. $6,400.
d. $5,900.
Answer: $4400
Explanation:
The proper amount of expenses to be included in the income statement for the year will be calculated as:
Commissions for salespeople who made sales in December = $3000
Add: Phone bill = $400
Add: Advertisement = $1000
Total expense = $3000 + $400 + $1000 = $4400
N.B: The commission and telephone charge were incurred in December 2019 and should be added.
The store rent of $2,000 for January 2020 was paid on December 28, 2019. This won't be added since it was for 2020.
Advertisiment of $1,500 was paid for November 2019, December 2019 and January 2020. We are concerned with that of November and December 2019. This will be: $1500 × 2/3 = $1000

Aaron, clerical supervisor for a health maintenance organization, wants to hire the best person for the receptionist job. Ramona, his manager, is doubtful that the candidate Aaron has selected will be capable because she uses a wheelchair. Ramona is concerned that other workers will have to spend a lot of time helping the receptionist get in and out of the office for lunch, breaks, and so on. How can Aaron ensure that his candidate will be an asset to the firm?
Answer:
Explanation:
There are two things that Aaron can do to make sure of this. The first is to make the office wheelchair-friendly. Meaning installing ramps in the necessary places so that the candidate can easily traverse the office and get to and from the places she needs easily and by herself. The second thing that Aaron can do is make sure that the candidate's abilities are better than the other candidates. These skills will make her an asset because she will be able to bring insight and experience that the other candidates would never be able to.

A machine at a cost of $5,000 was purchased 3 years ago. It can be sold now for $3,000. If the machine is kept, the annual operating and maintenance costs will be $1,500. If it is kept and operated for next five years, determine the amount at time 0 (now) equivalent to the cost of owning and operating the machine for the next five-year period. It is anticipated that the machine can be sold for $1,000 at the end of the five-year period. Use an interest rate of 10%
Answer:
$10,065.26
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the present value of machine operating cost using the following formula
PV of operating cost = Yearly Operating cost x ( 1 - ( 1 + Interest rate )^-numbers of years ) / Interest rate
Where
Yearly operating cost = $1,500
Interest rate = 10%
Numbers of years = 5 years
Placing values in the formula
PV of operating cost = $1500 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 10% )^-5 ) / 10%
PV of operating cost = $5,686.18
Now calculate the present vlaue of salvahge value
PV of SAlvage value = Slavage value / ( 1 + Interest rate )^Numbers of years
where
Salvage Value = $1,000
Interest rate = 10%
Numbers of years = 5 years
PLacing values in the formula
PV of SAlvage value = $1,000 / ( 1 + 10% )^5
PV of SAlvage value = $620.92
Net cost at time 0 = Initial purchase cost + PV of operating cost - Present value of salvage value = $5,000 + $5,686.18 - $620.92 = $10,065.26

George Gershwin Co. sold $2,000,000 of 10%, 10-year bonds at 104 on January 1, 2020. The bonds were dated January 1, 2020, and pay interest on July 1 and January 1. If Gershwin uses the straight-line method to amortize bond premium or discount, determine the amount of interest expense to be reported on July 1, 2020, and December 31, 2020.
Answer:
July 1, 2020 $96,000
December 31, 2020 $96,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of interest expense to be reported on July 1, 2020, and December 31, 2020.
Firststep is to get calculate the Premium amortization (Straight-line)
Issue price of the bonds $2,080,000
($2,000,000 x 1.04)
Less Par value of bonds ($2,000,000)
Premium on bonds payable $80,000
÷ Numbet of interest payments 20 times
(10 years x 2 times)
= Premium amortization (Straight-line) $4,000
($80,000÷20 times)
Now let calculate the Interest expense
Interest payment $100,000
(2,000,000 x 10% x 6/12)
Less Premium amortization ($4,000)
Interest expense $96,000
($100,000-$4,000)
Hence,using the straight line method, Interest expense will be $96,000 for every time.
Therefore the amount of interest expense to be reported on July 1, 2020 is $96,000, and December 31, 2020 is $96,000
On October 21, 2004, Abitibi-Consolidated Inc., a large Canadian-based newsprint and groundwood producer, reported net income for its third quarter, 2004, of $182 million. This compares with a net loss for the same quarter of 2003 of $70 million. Sales for the quarter were up, to $1528 million, and earnings excluding low persistence items, was a loss of $27 million. the low - persistence items included a gain of $239 million before tax from foreign exchange conversion. Much of the company's long term debt is denominated in US dollars. The foreign exchange gain arose because of the rising value of the Canadian dollar, relative to the US dollar, during the quarter. Comparable figures for the third quarter of 2003 were as follows: sales of $ 1,340 mil-lion, a loss before low- persistence items of $ 32 million, and foreign exchange conversion gain of $ 13 million. There is no mention of R& D costs in the company’s third quarter report. Its 2003 annual report mentions R& D only in passing, with reference to forest conservation. Presumably, R& D expenditures are relatively low. Abitibi- Consolidated’s share price rose $ 0.59 to $ 7.29 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on October 21, 2004. The S& P/ TSX Composite index gained 59 points to close at 8,847 on the same day. According to media reports, the increases were driven by a "red- hot" materials and energy sect
Solution :
The unexpected earnings is the term used to address the difference between the actual earning of the company for a period as well as the expected earnings for the period. The financial analyst make a mathematical as well as a financial models of the company earnings from the other accounting periods. The unexpected aspect of the earnings also means the price of the stock that can price up of fall dramatically over the course of the day.
Here,
For Q3 2004 2003
Net reported income 82M (70M)
Expected earnings (27M)
Unexpected earnings 55M
Thus we consider the earnings excluding the low persistence items. The low persistence items do not included the sinte there is no continuity or durability of the earnings currently, as they can vary on the large scale.
Also we are given company beta was 0.779 which indicates less volatility. Even though the stock price went up from 0.59 to 0.79, the difference can be considered as the unexpected earnings.
i.e. [tex]$7.29 - 0.59 =6.7 $[/tex] increase per share.

Manufacturing overhead was estimated to be $249,600 for the year along with 20,800 direct labor hours. Actual manufacturing overhead was $219,000, and actual labor hours were 21,900. The amount debited to the Manufacturing Overhead account would be: Multiple Choice $219,000. $249,600. $233,000. $262,800.
Answer:
Debit to manufacturing overhead= $262,800
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= 249,600/20,800
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $12 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 12*21,900
Allocated MOH= $262,800
Debit to manufacturing overhead= $262,800
A forklift will last for only 2 more years. It costs $5,000 a year to maintain. For $20,000 you can buy a new lift that can last for 10 years and should require maintenance costs of only $2,000 a year. a-1. Calculate the equivalent cost of owning and operating the forklift if the discount rate is 4% per year. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) a-2. Should you replace the forklift
Answer:
The equivalent cost of owning and operating the forklift is $4,465.82
We should replace the forklift.
Explanation:
The Equivalent annual cost can be calculated using the following formula
Equivalent annual cost = PV of cost / Annuity factor
Old forklift
PV of Cost = Annual cost x 2 years Annuity factor at 4% / 2 years Annuity factor at 4%
Hence
PV of cost = Annual cost = $5,000
New forklift
10 years Annuity factor at 4% = 1 - ( 1 + 4%)^-10 )/4% = 8.11090
PV of cost = ( Annual Cost x 10 years Annuity factor at 4% ) + Initial cost
PV of cost = ( $2,000 x 8.11090 ) + $20,000
PV of cost = 16,221.79 + $20,000
PV of cost = 36,221.79
Placing values in the formula
Equivalent annual cost = $36,221.79 / 8.11090
Equivalent annual cost = $4,465.82
As the equivalent annual cost of the new lift is lower than the the old one, we should replace the forklift
