Answer:
future payment $100,000 in 6 years
agreed interest rate 7%
the present value of the $100,000:
PV = $100,000 / (1 + 7%)⁶ = $66,634
if your grandmother really likes you and offers to either reduce the interest rate or the number of years, you should choose a reduction in the interest rate:
PV at 6% = $100,000 / (1 + 6%)⁶ = $66,634
PV at 5% = $100,000 / (1 + 5%)⁶ = $74,622
PV at 4% = $100,000 / (1 + 4%)⁶ = $79,031
PV at 3% = $100,000 / (1 + 3%)⁶ = $83,748
PV at 2% = $100,000 / (1 + 2%)⁶ = $88,797
PV at 1% = $100,000 / (1 + 1%)⁶ = $94,205
the less the interest rate, the higher the present value of the $100,000
Managers can use CSR and sustainability information as important feedback to guide decision making in a variety of areas. Which of the following areas is least likely to be impacted by this feedback?
a. cost control decisions
b. FASB compliance with U.S. GAAP
c. strategic and operational areas
d. resource allocation decisions
Answer:
Option B. FASB compliance with U.S. GAAP
Explanation:
Because FASB is an independent body and publishes amendmends in Accounting standards which are internationally accepted so it has nothing to do with the US GAAP. Our decision making impact can be seen on the matters that are dependent on us not on the things we don't have control of or if they independent body. So the least impacted would be FASB compliance with US GAAP.
Whereas the rest of options are controlled by the managers so they can be easily influenced by the decision making power of the managers.
Ma Barker Company has a job-order costing system and uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. Manufacturing overhead cost and direct labor hours were estimated at $100,000 and 40,000 hours, respectively, for the year. In July, Job #334 was completed at a cost of $5,000 in direct materials and $2,400 in direct labor. The labor rate is $6 per hour. If Job #334 contained 200 units, the unit product cost on the completed job cost sheet would be:___________.
a) $42.00
b) $39.50
c) $41.90
d) $37.00
Answer:
The correct answer is option (A) $42.00
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The established rate is given as = 100,000/40,000
= $2.5 per hour
Thus
The cost of the job is shown is shown below:
The direct material = $5,000
The direct labor = $2400
Then
The manufacturing overheard is = 400 * 2.5 = $1,000
So,
The total cost is = $5,000 + $2400 + $1000 = $8,400
To get our unit cost,
Unit cost = $8400/200 = $42.00
It is important to know that, the number of labor hours used in jobs = Total labor cost/Rate per hour
=2,400/6 = 400 hours
Atkinson Construction assembles residential houses. It uses a job-costing system with two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct labor) and one indirect-cost pool (assembly support). Direct labor-hours is the allocation base for assembly support costs. In December 2016, Atkinson budgets 2017 assembly-support costs to be $8,800,000 and 2017 direct labor-hours to be 220,000.At the end of 2017, Atkinson is comparing the costs of several jobs that were started and completed in 2017.Laguna Model Mission ModelConstruction period Feb-June 2017 May-0ct 2017Direct material costs $106,550 $127,450Direct labor costs $ 36,250 $41,130Direct labor-hours 970 1,000Direct materials and direct labor are paid for on a contract basis. The costs of each are known when direct materials are used or when direct labor-hours are worked. The 2017 actual assembly-support costs were $8,400,000, and the actual direct labor-hours were 200,000.Required:1. Compute the (a) budgeted indirect-cost rate and (b) actual indirect-cost rate. Why do they differ?2. What are the job costs of the Laguna Model and the Mission Model using (a) normal costing and (b) actual costing?3. Why might Atkinson Construction prefer normal costing over actual costing?
Answer:
1. Compute the
(a) budgeted indirect-cost rate
$40 per labor hour
and (b) actual indirect-cost rate.
$42 per labor hour
Why do they differ?
Because total assembly support costs and labor hours were different.They both were actually lower than expected, but the labor hours were 9% lower while the costs were around 5% lower. That is why the actual rate increased (denominator decreased more than numerator).
2. What are the job costs of the Laguna Model and the Mission Model using (a) normal costing
Laguna Model Mission Model
assembly-support cost $38,800 $40,000
and (b) actual costing?
Laguna Model Mission Model
assembly-support cost $40,7400 $42,000
3. Why might Atkinson Construction prefer normal costing over actual costing?
The problem with actual costing is that they cannot be budgeted, you can only budget normal costing. Any business has to prepare budgets in order to control how their operations are being carried out and then they need to adjust them to the actual costs incurred.

Suppose that M = 300, P = 100, and Y = 6. Then the velocity of circulation equals Select one: a. 2.00. b. 3.00. c. 50 d. 0.50. e. 0.02.
Answer:
a. 2.00.
Explanation:
The formula and the computation of the velocity of circulation are shown below:
According to the quantity money theory
M = Total money
V = Velocity
P = Price level
Y = Volume of goods and services
As we know that
Total amount of money in the economy × velocity = Price level × volume of goods and services
300 × velocity = 100 × 6
300 × velocity = 600
So, the velocity is
= 600 ÷ 300
= 2
Hence, the first option is correct
you work at an electronYou work at a local electronics store, Electronics Warehouse. While you are working you spot a customer who appears to place something into their backpack (which you think is an item they haven't paid for). Before they exit the store you yell "STOP THAT THIEF" and another employee tackles the customer at the exit. When the customer is tackled he injures his knee and is spotted by his current boss. You and the employee escort the customer back to the security office and rummage through his backpack, but unfortunately you don't find any evidence that something was stolen, so you release the customer and apologize for the mix-up. The next day the customer returns to his job and is fired for being "a thief" by his boss who witnessed the events at the electronics store the day before. a. Explain in detail what tort theories the customer can sue the Electronics Warehouse. Would he be successful? b. Can you or the other employee be sued for a tort? If so, what tort(s)? c. What defenses would the Electronics Warehouse raise? Would they be successful?
Answer: The answers are provided below
Explanation:
a. Yes, the customer can sue the Electronics warehouse. The customer was wrongly accused of stealing and was called a thief in front of everyone present in the store. In this case, the customer has lost his reputation.
The customer can be successful because he was called a thief which he wasn't. He got injured due to this and also lost his job. This is a serious misconduct and offense and the customer can be successful if he sue the Electronics company.
b. Yes, the employee and I can be sued for tort as we called him a thief without investigation and injured him. This has led to a big harm for the customer who lost his job due to this issue. With the illegal approach, both the employee and the electronic store can face the legal proceedings asnthey can be sued for major loss for the customer.
c. The Electronic Warehouse can raise the defense that they have apologized to the customer and they can also say that they took the measure to protect their stores from theft.
No, they can't be successful as they easily stop the customer without tackling him and making a mockery of him by calling him a thief. He also lost his job due to this. Hence, this is a serious issue that has created emotional and financial damage for the customer.
Assume that the full-employment level of output is $5000 billion and the natural unemployment rate is 5%. Suppose the current unemployment rate is 8%. What would be the current level of output according to Okun's law (when the Okun's law coefficient is 2)?
Answer:
$4700 Billion
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
Assume that full-employment level of output is =$5000 billion
Natural employment rate is =5%
Current unemployment rate = 8%
Now,
We find the current level of output according to Okun's law when the Okun's law coefficient is 2 which is given below:
2 (unemployment rate -natural unemployment) = potential GDP - actual GDP/potential GDP *100% this is known as the Okun's law
Thus
2( 8 - 5 ) = 5000 - actual GDP / 5000 * 100
or (6 * 5000 ) / 100 = 5000 - actual GDP = $4700 Billion
or
300 = 5000 - actual GDP
Hence, the actual GDP or current output = 5000 - 300 = 4700 $ billion
Suppose you have a linear integer optimization problem.

Assume that MP recently paid $ 500 comma 000 for a patent on a new laser printer. Although it gives legal protection for 20 years, the patent is expected to provide a competitive advantage for only eight years.
Requirements
1. Assuming the straight-line method of amortization, make journal entries to record (a) the purchase of the patent and (b) amortization for the first full year.
2. After using the patent for four years, MP learns at an industry trade show that another company is designing a more efficient printer. On the basis of this new information, MP decides, starting with year 5, to amortize the remaining cost of the patent over two remaining years, giving the patent a total useful life of six years. Record amortization for year 5.
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
1. The journal entries to record the purchase of the patent and the amortization for the first full year has been solved and attached.
2. The amortization expense of he 4 years will be:
= $62500 × 4
= $250,000
Therefore, the book value of the patent will be:
= Cost of the patent - amortization expense
= 500,000 - 250,000
= $250,000
Amortization for year 5 = Book value/Estimated useful life remaining
= 250,000/2
= $125,000
The journal for the amortization expense for year 5 has been attached
Based on guidelines established by the accounting manager, Jaime, the accounts payable clerk, makes payments to vendors in order to maximize discounts. What type of decision does this represent?
Answer:
Programmed.
Explanation:
This is a form of decision that is has been made or is been made by as manager just like Jaime the account managing clerk which is repetitive or occurs steadily and over and over. The fact that it happens this steadily makes it a programmed decision.
This decision making are always taken in accordance with some establishment habit, regulations or procedures while the nature of problem that requires a non programmed decision is unstructured and something different. It needs a higher management participation.
In programmed decision making, there could likely be no error in the decisions because it is a routine and managers usually have the information they need to create rules and guidelines to be followed by others.
The Fine Point Company currently produces all of the components for its one product, an electric pencil sharpener. The unit cost of manufacturing the motor for this pencil sharpener is: Direct materials$1.75 Direct labor$1.65 Variable overhead$0.75 Fixed overhead$0.60 The company is considering the possibility of buying this motor from a subcontractor and has been quoted a price of $3.60 per unit. The relevant cost of manufacturing the motor to be considered in reaching the decision is:
Answer:
$4.15 per unit
Explanation:
The computation of the relevant cost of manufacturing the motor is shown below:
Relevant cost per unit = Direct material per unit + direct labor per unit + variable overhead per unit
= $1.75 + $1.65 + $0.75
= $4.15 per unit
For reaching the decision, we simply added the direct material per unit, direct labor per unit and variable overhead per unit so that the correct answer could arrive

She meets with the company's executive vice-president in her third interview, and they spend most of the time discussing Eleanor's experiences working in different corporate cultures. This interview is likely a structured interview.A. TrueB. False
Answer:
The correct answer is the option A: True.
Explanation:
To begin with, the term of "structured interview" refers to the type of interview that is previously planned in order to already had the questions by the time the person comes to the interview, and therefore that it does not implicates to be doing questions at random. Moreover, it is used in order to gain time and to obtain the major amount of information about the person that the interviewer wants. That is why, that in this case is likely an structured interview due to the fact that the employeer already knew what he wanted to know about the person and therefore he is focus on having that information, in this case, previous experience work.
Suppose that the last four months of sales were 8, 10, 15, and 9 units, respectively. Suppose further that the last four forecasts were 5, 6, 11, and 12 units, respectively. What is the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) of this forecasting period?
A. 2
B. -10
C. 5.5
D. 9
E. 10.5
Answer:
-25.5
Explanation:
First, we find the Mean

Absolute mean value= (5-34) + (6-34) + (11-34) + (12-34) = -102/4=-25.5
You own shares in Yahoo that were purchased at a price of $ 24 per share. Microsoft has offered to purchase Yahoo and buy your shares at a price of $ 34 per share. What will be your return if you tender your shares to Microsoft and the deal is completed
Answer:
Return = 41.67%
Explanation
The return on a share is the sum of e capital gains and the dividend received all expressed as a percentage of the of the amount invested.
In the absence of the payment of dividend, the return
Return = capital gain/ Price of share × 100
Capital gain= Price of shares now - cost of shares
Capital gain = 34- 24 = 10
Return = 10/24 × 100 = 41.66666667
Return (%) = 41.67%
Overhead Variance (Over- or Underapplied), Closing to Cost of Goods Sold At the end of the year, Estes Company provided the following actual information: Overhead $412,600 Direct labor cost 532,000 Estes uses normal costing and applies overhead at the rate of 75% of direct labor cost. At the end of the year, Cost of Goods Sold (before adjusting for any overhead variance) was $1,670,000.Required:
1. Calculate the overhead variance for the year. $2. Dispose of the overhead variance by adjusting Cost of Goods Sold.
Answer:
1.
$13,600 unfavorable
2.
$1,683,600
Explanation:
Overhead variance is difference between the budgeted and actual values of the overhead incurred by a company.
Applied Overhead is the overhead value calculated by multiplying the actual activity and budgeted applied rate.
Applied Overheads = $532,000 x 75% = $399,000
Actual Overheads = $412,600
Overheads Variance = Applied Overheads - Actual Overheads
Overheads Variance = $399,000 - $412,600 = -$13,600
As actual overheads are incurred more than the applied overhead, so the variance is unfavorable.
$13,600 unfavorable
2.
As the overhead is under-applied and it need to be adjusted and added in the cost of goods sold.
Cost of Goods sold = $1,670,000
Adjusted cost of goods sold = $1,670,000 + $13,600
Adjusted cost of goods sold = $1,683,600

Loans 200
a. 1. What is the amount of excess reserves in this banking system?
2. What is the maximum amount the banking system might lend?
3. Show how the balance sheet would look after this amount has been lent
(construct new balance sheet or add columns).
4. What is the size of the monetary multiplier?
b. 1. Answer the questions in part a assuming the reserve ratio is 15 percent.
2. What is the resulting difference in the amount that the banking system can
lend? How do you explain the difference?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
Excess reserve = (Actual reserve - required reserve)
Required reserve = reserve ratio × Checkable deposit
Required reserve = 0.25 × $400 billion
Required reserve = $100 billion
Excess reserve = $96 - $100 = - $4billion
B) money multiplier = 1/ required reserve ratio
1/0.25 = 4
Maxumum amount that can be Lent = 4 × 4 = $16 million
If reserve ratio = 15%
Required reserve = 0.15 × $400 billion = $60 billion
Excess reserve = $96 - $60 = $36 billion
Monetary multiplier = 1/ 0.15 = 6.667
Maximum amount of loan = 6.667 × 36 = $240 billion
The expected average rate of return for a proposed investment of $800,000 in a fixed asset with a useful life of four years, straight-line depreciation, no residual value, and an expected total net income of $360,000 for the four years is
Answer:
22.5%
Explanation:
For computation of return on investment first we need to find out the average investment and average income per year which is shown below:-
Average investment = Proposed investment ÷ Average
= $800,000 ÷ 2
= $400,000
Now, the Average income per year = Expected total net income ÷ Number of year
= $360,000 ÷ 4
= $90,000
Return on investment = Average income per year ÷ Average investment
= $90,000 ÷ $400,000
= 0.225
or
= 22.5%

margin of safety in $ = $633,550margin of safety in % = 36.55%4. What does this tell you about the risk of McKnight making a loss? What are the most likely reasons for this risk to increase?
Since the contribution margin is relatively high, this means that the production costs are relatively low (compared to selling price). The associated risks may come from high leverage, e.g. machinery purchased on credit that results in high interest expense. For the most part, having a high contribution margin is generally very good, just ask Apple.Explanation:
break even point is $ = $1,100,000 (= break even point units x selling price)
fixed costs = $660,000
contribution margin % = (total sales - total variable costs) / total sales
total variable costs = $1,100,000 - $660,000 = $440,000
contribution margin % = ($1,100,000 - $660,000) / $1,100,000 = 40%
variable costs = $16 per unit
0.4 = (x - $16) / x
0.4x = x - $16
$16 = 0.6x
x = $26.67
65,000 x $26.67 = $1,733,550
margin of safety in $ = $1,733,550 - $1,100,000 = $633,550
margin of safety in % = $633,550 / $1,733,550 = 36.55%

Exercise 11-6 Net present value LO P3 A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $520,000 and have a useful life of six years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $150,000 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $10,000. A machine costs $380,000, has a $20,000 salvage value, is expected to last eight years, and will generate an after-tax income of $60,000 per year after straight-line depreciation. Assume the company requires a 10% rate of return on its investments. Compute the net present value of each potential investment. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
Answer:
NPV of investment 1: $509,131
NPV of investment 2: $269,513
Explanation:
initial investment -$520,000
6 year useful life, depreciation per year = ($520,000 - $10,000) / 6 = $85,000
free cash flow per year = $150,000 + $85,000 = $235,000
free cash flow last year = $235,00 + $10,000 = $245,000
NPV = -$520,000 + $235,000/1.1 + $235,000/1.1² + $235,000/1.1³ + $235,000/1.1⁴ + $235,000/1.1⁵ + $245,000/1.1⁶ = -$520,000 + $213,636 + $194,215 + $176,559 + $160,508 + $145,917 + $138,296 = $509,131
initial investment -$380,000
8 year useful life, depreciation per year = ($380,000 - $20,000) / 6 = $60,000
free cash flow per year = $60,000 + $60,000 = $120,000
free cash flow last year = $120,00 + $20,000 = $140,000
NPV = -$380,000 + $120,000/1.1 + $120,000/1.1² + $120,000/1.1³ + $120,000/1.1⁴ + $120,000/1.1⁵ + $120,000/1.1⁶ + $120,000/1.1⁷ + $140,000/1.1⁸= -$380,000 + $109,091 + $99,174 + $90,158 + $81,962 + $74,501 + $67,737 + $61,579 + $65,311 = $269,513
Chang Industries has 1,200 defective units of product that have already cost $13.20 each to produce. A salvage company will purchase the defective units as they are for $4.20 each. Chang's production manager reports that the defects can be corrected for $6.80 per unit, enabling them to be sold at their regular market price of $19.40. The incremental income or loss on reworking the units is: Multiple Choice $18,240 income. $10,080 loss. $8,160 loss. $15,120 income. $10,080 income.
Answer:
$10,080 income
Explanation:
The computation of incremental income or loss on reworking the units is shown below:-
Incremental income on reworking unit = Sales after reworking - Sales to salvage company - Incremental cost
= (1,200 × $19.40) - (1,200 × $4.20) - (1,200 × $6.80)
= $23,280 - $5,040 - $8,160
= $10,080 income
Therefore for computing the Incremental income on reworking unit we simply applied the above formula.

Maxxie purchased a tract of land for $24,500. Today, the same land is worth $43,800. How many years have passed if the price of the land has increased at an annual rate of 6.4 percent
Answer:
9.35 years
Explanation:
To find the numbers of years that have passed, you can use the following formula:
n = ln(FV / IV)/ln(1 + r)
n= number of periods
FV= Future value= $43,800
IV= Initial value= $24,500
r= rate= 6.4%
n=ln(43,800/24,500)/ln(1+0.064)
n= ln1.79/ln1.064
n=0.58/0.062
n= 9.35
According to this, 9.35 years have passed.
CalculatorPrint Item On October 1, Black Company receives a 6% interest-bearing note from Reese Company to settle a $15,000 account receivable. The note is due in six months. At December 31, Black should record interest revenue of a.$225 b.$235 c.$232 d.$222
