Answer:
PES = 1.59 elastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity of supply = percentage change in quantity supplied / percentage change in price
% change in quantity = (Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2] = (10 - 7) / [(10 + 7) / 2] = 3 / 8.5 = 35.29%
% change in price = (50 - 40) / [(50 + 40) / 2] = 10 / 45 = 22.22%
PES = 35.29% / 22.22% = 1.59 elastic

A firm' s sales procedure involves preparing sales invoices based on shipping documents; posting the sales amounts to accounts receivable records; and posting quantities billed to the inventory records. Due to control weaknesses in the procedure, certain goods that are shipped may not be reflected in the sales invoices. The exposure from this risk can result in:
Answer: understatement of revenues and receivables and over statement of inventory
Explanation:
Control weakness simply refers to the failure by a company to implement the internal controls. Based on the information given, the exposure from this risk can result in understatement of revenues and receivables and over statement of inventory.
There'll be understatement of revenue and receivables since sales is not recorded while the inventory will be overstated.
Concord Corporation had 302000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at December 31, 2020. No common stock was issued during 2021. On January 1, 2021, Concord issued 201000 shares of nonconvertible preferred stock. During 2021, Concord declared and paid $100000 cash dividends on the common stock and $81000 on the preferred stock. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $611000. What should be Concord's 2021 earnings per common share
Answer:
$1.05 per share
Explanation:
Earnings per share is computed as
= (Net income reported - Preferred stock dividend) ÷ (Outstanding number of shares + additional shares issued)
= ($611,000 - $81,000) ÷ (302,000 + 201,000)
= $530,000 ÷ 503,000
= $1.05 per share.
Therefore, Concord's 2021 earnings per common share is $1.05 per share.

You own a house that you rent for $1,275 per month. The maintenance expenses on the house average $235 per month. The house cost $226,000 when you purchased it 4 years ago. A recent appraisal on the house valued it at $248,000. If you sell the house you will incur $19,840 in real estate fees. The annual property taxes are $2,850. You are deciding whether to sell the house or convert it for your own use as a professional office. What value should you place on this house when analyzing the option of using it as a professional office?
Answer: $228,160
Explanation:
The value that should be placed on this house when analyzing the option of using it as a professional office will be the value of the net proceeds from selling the house and this will be:
= Value of house - Real estate fees
= $248000 - $19840
= $228,160
Therefore, the value that should be place on this house when analyzing the option of using it as a professional office is $228,160
Total demand for Oxy is 10,000 units and for Sonic is 6,000 units. Machine time is a scarce resource. During the year, 50,000 machine hours are available. Oxy requires 4 machine hours per unit, while Sonic requires 2.5 machine hours per unit. What is the maximum contribution margin Garrison can achieve during a year
Answer:
$444,250
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the maximum contribution margin Garrison can achieve during a year
First step is to calculate the Contribution margin per hour
Oxy sonic
Sales $75 $44
Less: variable cost $40 $21
=Contribution margin per unit 35 23
÷Machine hour per unit 4 2.5
=Contribution margin per hour $8.75 $9.2
Ranking 2 1
Second step is to calculate the Hour required for sonic
Hour required for sonic = 6,000*2.5
Hour required for sonic= 15,000 hours
Third step is to calculate the Hour available for oxy
Hour available for oxy = 50,000-15,000
Hour available for oxy = 35,000 hours
Fourth step is to calculate the Production of Oxy
Production of Oxy = 35,000/4
Production of Oxy= 8,750 units
Now let calculate the Maximum contribution margin
Maximum contribution margin = 8,750*35+ 6000*23
Maximum contribution margin =306,250+,138,000
Maximum contribution margin = $444,250
Therefore the maximum contribution margin Garrison can achieve during a year is $444,250
small accounting firm is considering the purchase of a computer software package that would greatly reduce the amount of time needed to prepare tax forms. The software costs $2150 and this expense will be incurred immediately. The firm estimates that it will save $650 of cash flow at the end of each year beginning in one year for 5 consecutive years, and also save $1788 in year 6. What is the payback on the computer package
Answer:
Pay back period =3 years 4 months
Explanation:
The payback period is the estimated length of time it takes cash inflow from a project to recoup the cash outflow.
The payback period uses cash flows and not profit.
The payback period can be determined by accumulation the cash inflow consecutively to ascertain the length of time it will take the sum to equate the initial cost.
This will be done as follows:
The sum of the cash in flows for the first three years would equal
650× 3= 1,950
The balance required to equate 2,150 would be
balance = 2150-1950 = 200
Pay back period = 3 years + (200/650)× 12 months
= 3 years 3.6months
Pay back period =3 years 4 months

Wilde forecasts the following interest expenses, which are expected to grow at a constant 3% rate after Year 3. Wilde's tax rate is 25%. Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Interest expenses $80 $95 $140 What is the horizon value of the interest tax shield
Answer: $400.56
Explanation:
Horizon value = Tax shield in 3rd year * (1 + growth rate) / (Required return - Growth rate)
Tax shield in year 3 = Interest expense * tax rate
= 140 * 25%
= $35
Horizon value = 35 * ( 1 + 3%) / (12% - 3%)
= $400.56
Company A Company B Market Value of Equity $400,000 $600,000 Market Value of Debt $100,000 $800,000 Cost of Equity 9% 9% Cost of Debt 3% 4% Tax Rate 35% 35% Based solely on their current weighted average cost of capital, which company should pursue an investment opportunity with an expected return of 6.5%
Answer:
Company B should pursue the investment
Explanation:
To determine a profitable investment opportunity to pursue, we would compare the weighted average cost of capital WACC to the expected return on the investment opportunity. An investment return greater than the cost of capital implies a profitable investment and vice versa
The weighted average cost of capital (WAAC) is the average cost of all the various sources of long-term finance used by a business weighted according to the proportion which each source of finance bears to the the entire pool of fund.
Lets first work the after tax cost of debt for the companies:
After tax- cost of debt = cost of debt × (1-tax rate)
Company A= 3%× (1-35%) = 1.95%
Company B = 4%× (1-35%)= 2.6%
WACC coy A= 9%× (4/4+1) + 1.95% × 1/(4+1) = 7.6%
WACC coy B= 9%× (6/6+8) + 2.6% × 8/(6+8) = 5.3%
Company B has a cost of capital of 5.3% which represents the minimum
return required by by the providers of capital. An investment an expected return of 6.% appears profitable as it is greater than the company's cost of fund of 5.3%
Company B should pursue the investment

Actual sales revenue in dollars is 3.5% higher than budgeted, actual sales price is 10% lower than budgeted, actual sales volume in units is 15% higher than budgeted, actual input prices are 5% lower than budgeted, and actual input quantities per unit are 5% lower than budgeted. Characterize input price and input efficiency variances as favorable (F) or unfavorable (U):
Answer:
Input price and input efficiency variances are:
Favorable.
Explanation:
The input price is the cost of production. When the actual cost of production (input price) is 5% lower than budgeted, it is a favorable outcome. Similarly, when the input efficiency (that is the quantity of input) is 5% lower than budgeted, it shows a favorable outcome. Therefore, the variances of these input elements (price and efficiency) are all together favorable.

Swifty Enterprises reported cost of goods sold for 2020 of $1,453,700 and retained earnings of $5,392,600 at December 31, 2020. Swifty later discovered that its ending inventories at December 31, 2019 and 2020, were overstated by $102,820 and $37,880, respectively. Determine the corrected amounts for 2020 cost of goods sold and December 31, 2020, retained earnings.
Answer:
Corrected cost of goods sold $1,388,760
Corrected retained earnings $5,354,720
Explanation:
First, we need to determine corrected cost of goods sold
Corrected cost of goods sold at December 31, 2020
= Beginning inventory - Purchases - Ending inventory
= $1,453,700 - [$102,820 - $37,880]
= $1,453,700 - $64,930
= $1,388,760
The December 31,2020 corrected retained earnings would be computed as;
= Ending retained earnings - Overstated ending inventories at December 31, 2020
= $5,392,600 - $37,880
= $5,354,720
The fact that most medical care purchases are financed through insurance Group of answer choices has no effect on health care consumption because aggregate costs are the same regardless of payment method. reduces the amount of health care consumed by raising the price of additional units of care. has decreased health care costs and therefore reduced aggregate health care expenditures. increases the amount of health care consumed by reducing the price of additional units of care.
Answer: increases the amount of health care consumed by reducing the price of additional units of care.
Explanation:
When individuals have health insurance, they pay only a certain amount of premiums per period yet when they have a health problem, the insurance company will cover the cost of that problem for the most part.
This means that the insured only have to pay a certain amount for healthcare which reduces their overall cost were they to consume additional units because they would not have to pay for those additional units.
Haylock Inc. bases its manufacturing overhead budget on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 7,500 direct labor-hours will be required in August. The variable overhead rate is $1.50 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $100,410 per month, which includes depreciation of $8,940. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The August cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:
Answer:
Overhead cash disbursement= $102,720
Explanation:
First, we need to allocate variable overhead using the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 1.5*7,500
Allocated MOH= $11,250
Now, we can calculate the cash disbursement for August. Depreciation is not a cash expense. We should deduct it from fixed costs.
Overhead cash disbursement= 11,250 + 100,410 - 8,940
Overhead cash disbursement= $102,720
