Hall Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data concerning the first processing department for the most recent month are listed below:

Beginning work in process inventory:

Units in beginning work in process inventory 1,000
Materials costs $7,100
Conversion costs $6,400
Percent complete with respect to materials 65%
Percent complete with respect to conversion 30%
Units started into production during the month 13,600
Units transferred to the next department during the month 12,300
Materials costs added during the month $137,224
Conversion costs added during the month $215,050

Ending work in process inventory:
Units in ending work in process inventory 2,300
Percent complete with respect to materials 60%
Percent complete with respect to conversion 25%


The total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department during the month is closest to:______

a. $356,256
b. $380,435
c. $341,325
d. $349,856

Answers

Answer:

c. $341,325

Explanation:

First determine the Equivalent Units of Production

Materials

Units completed and transferred (12,300 × 100%)              = 12,300

Units in Ending Work In Process Inventory ( 2,300 ×60%) =   1,380

Equivalent Units of Production                                             = 13,680

Conversion

Units completed and transferred (12,300 × 100%)              = 12,300

Units in Ending Work In Process Inventory ( 2,300 ×25%) =      575

Equivalent Units of Production                                             = 12,875

Next Determine the Total Cost Incurred during the period

Materials

Cost in Units of Opening Work In Process     =      $7,100

Incurred during the period                               = $137,224

Total Cost                                                          = $144,324

Conversion

Cost in Units of Opening Work In Process     =     $6,400

Incurred during the period                               = $215,050

Total Cost                                                          = $221,450

Then Determine the Total Cost per Equivalent unit of Production

Cost per Equivalent unit = Total Cost / Total Equivalent Units

Materials = $144,324 / 13,680

               = $10.54

Conversion = $221,450 / 12,875

                   = $17.20

Total = $10.54 + $17.20 = $27.74

Finally calculate total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department

total cost transferred  = Units transferred × Total cost per equivalent unit of production.

                                     = 12,300 × $27.74

                                     = $341,202

Conclusion :

The total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department during the month is closest to $341,325

A new company plans to lose money for the first 5 years of its existence. They think they will lose $4,000,000 in year 1 and the losses are expected to decrease by $150,000 per year for the next three years. At 8% MARR what is the Annual Worth of their losses

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $3,789.363

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

For the first 5 years of functioning, a new company plans to lose money.

In the first year  they think they will lose money of the amount = $4,000,000

The expected decrease (losses) is =$150,000 (next three years)

MARR = 8%

Now

We find the annual worth losses which is given below:

Annual worth  = $4,000,000 - $150,000(A/G, 8%, 4)

(A/G,i, N) = 1/i - N/(1 +i)^N -1

= 1/0.08 - 4/(1 + 0.08)^4 -1

= 12.5 -4/1.360488961 -1

=12.5 - 11.09606977

=1.40425

Thus,

AW = $4,000,000 - $150,000 ( 1.40425)

AW = $4,000,000 -$210637.5

AW = $3,789. 363

Therefore, the annual worth pf their losses is $3,789.363

Answer:

Ending inventory balance is $ 779,914.13  

Explanation:

The cost of goods sold formula can be used to determine the ending inventory by rearranging the formula and making the ending inventory the subject of the formula:

cost of goods=beginning inventory+inventory purchased-ending inventory

ending inventory=beginning inventory+inventory purchased-costs of goods sold

ending inventory=$864,593+(11,752*$11.73)-(18971*$11.73)=$ 779,914.13

Which of the following statements is most correct? a. All else equal, if a bond’s yield to maturity increases, its price will fall. b. All else equal, if a bond is down graded by the rating agencies its yield to maturity will increase. c. If a firm has two bond issues that are identical except one is subordinate to the other, the subordinate issue will have a higher yield to maturity than the other issue. d. A B and C are correct. e. None of the above are correct

Answers

Answer: d. A B and C are correct.

Explanation:

A bond's price and it's Yield to Maturity (YTM) are inversely related such that when Yield to Maturity rises, the price of the bond falls. This is a because a higher YTM signifies that the bond is riskier so it will compensate by being cheaper.

If a bond is downgraded by Ratings agencies then it means that the bond is now riskier. As it is riskier investors will charge more interest for taking on the risk. The interest is the YTM and so it rises.

A Subordinate bond means that if the company were to go into bankruptcy for instance, the Subordinate bond would only be paid for after the bond that is not Subordinated. This means that there is a chance that Subordinate bond holders will not get anything from the liquidation of the company. Investors will therefore charge a higher YTM to cater for the risk that this happens.

Using the simple money multiplier formula (i.e., individuals hold no cash), if the required reserve ratio is 40%, the maximum possible amount that the banking system can now add to the money supply is:Group of answer choices$15,000$20,000$25,000$40,000

Answers

Answer: $25,000

Explanation:

The Money Multiplier allows us to calculate how much money banks can create in an economic given a certain reserve ratio.

The formula is;

Money Multiplier = 1 /reserve ratio

= 1/ 0.4

= 2.5

The reserve ratio is 40% which means the bank should be holding 40% of deposits as reserves.

= 100,000 * 40%

= $40,000

Yet they are holding $50,000. They are holding $10,000 more than required. Should they release that $10,000 then they will create;

= 10,000 * money Multiplier

= 10,000 * 2.5

= $25,000

Using both the supply and demand for bonds and liquidity preference framework, show how interest rate are affected when the riskiness of bonds rises. Are the results the same in the two frame works

Answers

Answer:

Yes, the results are the same in both frameworks. Please see below for explanation.

Explanation:

With regards to the bond supply and demand framework, people will look to buy more bonds since they are more wealthy now. Hence, the supply of bonds will increase. The supply curve and the demand curve will both move to the right, with the former shifting more than the latter. The equilibrium interest rate will increase.

With regards to the liquidity preference framework, once the economy experiences a positive shift, there will also be an increase in the demand for money. People will make an increased number of transactions as well and hence, the demand curve will move towards the right. The equilibrium interest rate will rise too.

Platen purchased inventory on August 17 and received an invoice with a list price amount of $5,900 and payment terms of 4/10, n/30. Platen uses the net method to record purchases. For what amount should Platen record the purchase

Answers

Answer:

$5,664

Explanation:

Calculation of the amount that Platen should record the purchase.

Using this formula

List price -(Percentage of payment term × list price)

Let plug in the formula

$5,900 -(4%×5,900 )

=$5,900-$236

=$5,664

Therefore Platen should record the purchase on August 17 as a:

Debit to Purchases (periodic system) and a Credit to Accounts Payable for $5,664

Therefore the amount that Platen should record the purchase will be $5,664

CMS Corporation's balance sheet as of today is as follows: Long-term debt (bonds, at par) $10,000,000 Preferred stock 2,000,000 Common stock ($10 par) 10,000,000 Retained earnings 4,000,000 Total debt and equity $26,000,000 The bonds have a 4.0% coupon rate, payable semiannually, and a par value of $1,000. They mature exactly 10 years from today. The yield to maturity is 12%, so the bonds now sell below par. What is the current market value of the firm's debt

Answers

Answer:

$5,412,000

Explanation:

Given:

Long-term debt (bonds, at par):$10,000,000

Preferred stock :2,000,000

Common stock ($10 par): 10,000,000

Retained earnings: 4,000,000

Total debt and equity :$26,000,000

Coupon rate = 4%(semi annually)

Par value = $1000

YTM = 12%

Required:

Find the current market value of the firm's debt.

Find the bond price:

Bond price [tex] = (C * (\frac{1 - (\frac{1}{(1+i)^n})}{i}) + (\frac{m}{(1+i)^n}) [/tex]

[tex] = (C * (\frac{1 - (\frac{1}{(1+0.06)^2^0})}{0.06}) + (\frac{1000}{(1+0.06)^2^0}) [/tex]

[tex] = 541.20 [/tex]

Bond price = $541.20

Find number of bonds:

Number of bonds [tex] = \frac{10,000,000}{1,000} = 10,000[/tex]

Now, to find the current market value of the firm's debt, use:

Current market value of debt = number of bonds × bond price

= 10,000 × 541.20

= $5,412,000

Current market value of the firm's debt = $5,412,000

Big Canyon Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with 17 years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and a price of $969. At this price, the bonds yield 8.1 percent. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds?

Answers

Answer:

7.8%

Explanation:

For computing the coupon rate first we have to determine the PMT by using the PMT formula which is shown in the attachment below:

Given that,  

Present value = $969

Future value or Face value = $1,000  

RATE =8.1%

NPER = 17 years

The formula is shown below:  

= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after applying the above formula, the PMT is $77.58

Now the coupon rate is

= $77.58 ÷ $1,000

= 7.8%

Deborah Lewis, general manager of the Northwest Division of Berkshire Co., has significant authority over pricing decisions as well as programs that involve cost reduction/control. The data that follow relate to upcoming divisional operations:



Average invested capital: $15,000,000

Annual total fixed costs: $3,900,000

Variable cost per unit: $80

Number of units expected to be sold: 120,000

Assume the unit selling price is $132 and that Berkshire has a 16% imputed interest charge.

Top management will promote Deborah to corporate headquarters if her division can generate $200,000 of residual income (RI). If Deborah desires to move to corporate, what adjustment must the division do to the amount of annual total fixed costs?

Answers

Answer:

The revised fixed costs = $3,640,000

Explanation:

Calculation of Residual Income:

Residual Income = Net income - (Invested capital * Minimum required rate of return)

Net Income = Sales - Variable costs - Fixed costs

Net Income = (120,000*132) - (120,000*80) - 3,900,000

Net Income = $2,340,000

Invested capital = $15,000,000

Minimum required rate of return = 16%

Therefore, residual income = $2,340,000 - ($15,000,000 * 16%)

= -$60,000

Hence, adjustment to be made to the amount of fixed costs so that residual income becomes $200,000 = $200,000+$60,000 = $260,000

Therefore, revised fixed costs = $3,900,000 - $260,000 = $3,640,000

Dec. 31 Ending Inventory  55             $31.59          $1,737.50

Explanation:

To use the weighted average method, we divide the cost of goods available for sale by the number of units available for sale, which yields the weighted-average cost per unit.  The cost of goods available for sale is the sum of beginning inventory and net purchases.

g A particular brand of toothpaste costs 4 British pounds in London. The nominal exchange rate is .80 and the real exchange rate is about 1.16. These numbers imply that the U.S. price of the same toothpaste is about a. $5.79 b. $4.29 c. $3.70 d. $2.76

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option (d)$2.76

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The cost of a particular brand of toothpaste = 4 pounds

The exchange rate = .80

Real exchange rate = 1.16

Now

Real exchange rate is given as:

R = real exchange rate

e = nominal exchange rate

PF = foreign price

P = domestic price

Suppose we say that U.S. is a domestic country and British is a foreign country we have the following formula below:

R =  e(PF/P)

R = 1.16

e = 0.80

PF = 4

Thus

R =  e(PF/P)  

1.16 = 0.80(4/P)

P = 3.2/1.16

= 2.7586207

= $2.76

Therefore, The U.S rice of the same toothpaste is about $2.76

ABC Appliance offers a warranty requiring an annual fee. The warranty may be purchased at the time of sale or at any time within the first year after the appliance was purchased. The warranty fee after the date of purchase is twice the time-of-purchase fee. When asked why the fee was higher after the date of purchase, ABC's president said, "Buying a warranty is voluntary. We've noted that those who buy the warranty after the purchase date have a greater need for service." Charging the same rate or a lower rate after the date of purchase would expose ABC to what problem that also impacts private insurers?

Answers

Answer: adverse selection

Explanation:

Adverse selection is a situation whereby the sellers possesses information that the buyers do not have. It may also be the other way round whereby the buyers have information which the sellers don't have regarding the quality of a product.

There is information failure between both parties; typically, it's usually the sellers who has more information. Therefore, base on the scenario above, charging same rate or lower rate after the date of the purchase would expose ABC to adverse selection problems.

Kansas Company acquired a building valued at $151,000 for property tax purposes in exchange for 12,000 shares of its $3 par common stock. The stock is widely traded and selling for $18 per share. At what amount should the building be recorded by Kansas Company

Answers

Answer:

The building would be recorded by Kansas Company for an amount of $216,000

Pettygrove Company had 1,700,000 shares of $10 par value common stock outstanding. The amount of additional paid-in capital is $8,500,000, and Retained Earnings is $2,550,000. The company issues a 2-for-1 stock split. The market price of the stock is $11. What is the balance in the Common Stock account after this issuance

Answers

A game popular in Nevada gambling casinos is Keno, which is played as follows: Twenty numbers are selected at random by the casino from the set of numbers 1 through 80. A player can select from 1 to 15 numbers; a win occurs if some fraction of the players chosen subset matches any of the 20 numbers drawn by the house. The payoff is a function of the number of elements in the players selection and the number of matches. For instance, if the player selects only 1 number, then he or she wins if this number is among the set of 20, and the payoff is $2.20 won for every dollar bet. (As the players probability of winning in this case is , it is clear that the "fair" payoff should be $3 won for every $1 bet). When the player selects 2 numbers, a payoff (of odds) of $12 won for every $1 bet is made when both numbers are among the 20.A) What would be the fair payoff in this case? Let P, k denote the probability that exactly k of the n numbers chosen by the player are among the 20 selected by the house. B) Compute Pn, k.C) The most typical wager at Keno consists of selecting 10 numbers. For such a bet, the casino pays off as shown in the following table. Compute the expected payoff.
