Clayborn Company deposits all cash receipts on the day they are received and makes all cash payments by check. At the close of business on May 31, its Cash account shows a debit balance of $28,525. Clayborn's May bank statement shows $25,000 on deposit in the bank. Determine the adjusted cash balance using the following information:Deposit in transit $5,200Outstanding checks $4,600Bank service fees, not yet recorded by company $25A NSF check from a customer, not yet recorded by the company $600Required:What should be the adjusted cash balance?
Answer:
$27,900
Explanation:
The computation of adjusted cash balance is shown below:-
Adjusted cash balance = Balance at May 31 - bank service fees - NSF check
= $28,525 - $25 - $600
= $27,900
Therefore for computing the adjusted cash balance we simply deduct the bank service fee and NSF check from balance at may 31
Hence, the adjusted cash balance is $27,900
Trade Mart has recently had lackluster sales. The rate of inventory turnover has? dropped, and the merchandise is gathering dust. At the same time, competition has forced AquariumAquarium's suppliers to lower the prices that Aquarium will pay when it replaces its inventory. It is now December 31, 2016, and the current replacement cost Aquarium's ending inventory is $75,000 below what Aquarium actually paid for the goods, which was $200,000.
Before any adjustments at the end of the? period, the Cost of Goods Sold account has a balance of $$820,000.
Requirements:
a. What accounting action should Aquarium take in this situation?
b. Give any journal entry required.
c. At what amount should Aquarium report Inventory on the balance? sheet?

b. Give any journal entry required.
Dr Cost of goods sold 75,000
Cr Inventory 75,000
c. At what amount should Aquarium report Inventory on the balance? sheet?
Inventory = $200,000 - $75,000 = $125,000
d. At what amount should the company report Cost of Goods Sold on the income statement?

OJ's Orange Juice produces orange juice to sell in a competitive market.Given uncertainty in weather patterns, OJ has to determine how much juice to produce before knowing the competitive price. It is estimated that there is a 10 percent chance the competitive price will be $5 and a 90 percent chance the price will be $2. If the marginal cost of producing orange juice is MC(Q) = 2Q, then to maximize expected profits, OJ should produce:__________.a- 0.25 units. b- 2.5 units. c- 1.15 units. d- 0.9 units.
Answer:
c- 1.15 units.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Expected price at 10 percent = $5 * 10% = $0.5
Expected price at 90 percent = $2 * 90% = $1.80
Total expected price (EP) = $0.5 + $1.80 = $2.3
Since profit is maximized when EP = MC, we have:
2.3 = 2Q
Q = 2.3 / 2 = 1.15
Therefore, OJ should produce 1.15 units to maximize expected profit. The correction is therefore c- 1.15 units.
Explain how the Federal Reserve Board can increase or decrease the money supply using each of the following tools: reserve requirements, open-market activities, and discount rates
Answer:
Reserve requirements – Reserve requirement increases to decrease the money supply or vice versa.
Open-market activities – the Fed sell the securities to reduce money supply or purchase it to increase the money supply.
Discount rates – Decrease the discount rate to increase the money supply or vice versa.
Explanation:
The Federal Reserve increases or decreases the money supply by using various tools. So in the case of the reserve requirement, the bank increases the percentage of reserve requirement if the Fed wants to decrease the money supply and to increase the money supply it reduces the reserve requirements. In the case of open market operations, the Fed sells securities and bonds in the market in order to reduce the supply of money or to decrease the supply of money it buys the securities from the market.
In the case of a discount rate, the Fed reduces the discount rate to increase the money supply because reducing the discount rate will induce the banks to give more loans. But to decrease the money supply, the Fed increases the discount rate because an increase in the discount rate reduces the ability of banks to give loans.

If Galaxia has a GDP that is 10 times larger than Myopia, which country would likely have greater marginal returns to capital based on the law of diminishing returns to capital
Answer:
Myopia
Explanation:
The law of marginal returns states that as the total amount of any production factor increases, the output per unit of that factor will start to decrease. In other words, the marginal output or return from that factor will decrease. E.g. if you invest $100 in a small business, you will require a very high rate of return. If instead, you invest $1,000 in corporate bonds, you will only obtain moderate to low yields.
In this case, $1,000 invested in Myopia (smaller economy) should return a higher yield than $1,000 invested in Galaxia. Also, the $1,000 invested in Myopia will have a larger economic effect than the $1,000 invested in Galaxia.

During a Value-Added Flow Analysis, the team studied a process step where they checked the customer's credit. What is the best label for this step?
Answer:
Non-Value-Adding but required.
Explanation:
A Value-Added flow analysis is a graphical visualization tool that is used for identifying non-essential activities or steps within a process. It basically, allows individuals or team to analyze, identify and separate value-adding activities from non-value-adding activities or steps in an organization. This simply means that, it avails an organization or business the ability to separate activities that add value for the user from the activities that are non-value-adding.
The value-adding activities are the steps that adds value to an organization's product or project while the non-value-adding activities are those steps which do not add any value to the organization's product.
In this scenario, during a value-added flow analysis, the team studied a process step where they checked the customer's credit. The best label for this step is Non-value-adding but required.
The process of checking a customer's credit is a necessary task or a required step but in the real sense of lean, it is considered as a non-value-adding activity. This is simply because, it is required to check the customer's credit in order to update the balance sheet and to know the amount that is granted to these customers.
However, it does not add any value to the organization.

Swifty snowboards converts regulat snowboards by adding outriggers and seats so that people who use wheel chairs can snowboard. the income statement for lasst yeaar in which 500 snowboards were produced and sold, appears here.
Revenue $150,000
Expenses:
Variable production costs $60,000
Fixed production costs 25,000
Variable selling and administration 10,000
Fixed selling and administration 35,000 130,000
$20.000
Income
Required:
A. What vołume of snowboards must be sold to ean pretax profits of $30,000?
B. Snowbird's supplier of snowboards is unable to ship more than 500 boards for the upcoming season. Snowbird has been paying the supplier $85 for each snowboard. (The cost of the snowboards is incłuded in variable production costs). More expensive snowboards are available from other manufacturers for conversion. If Snowbird's managers expect to sell more than 500 converted snowboards in the upcoming season, what is the most they would be willing to pay outside suppliers for each additional snowboard?
C. Suppose Snowbird pays the price you calculated in part (B) and sells an additional 200 snowboards. What is the commany's incremental profit on the 200 snowboards?
Answer:
A. 563 snowboards
B. $120
C. Incremental Profit:$32,000
Explanation:
Volume to meet target profit = (Target Profit + Fixed Cost) / Contribution per unit
Calculation of Contribution per unit
Revenue $150,000
Less Variable Costs ;
Variable production costs ($60,000)
Variable selling and administration ($10,000)
Contribution $80,000
Contribution per unit = $80,000 / 500 snowboards
= $160
Volume to meet target profit = ($30,000 + $25,000 + $35,000) / $160
= 562.50 or 563 snowboards
For the Additional Snowboats,Snowbird's managers are willing to pay a price close to cost of making the regular snowboards internally.
Cost of Making :
Variable production costs ($60,000 / 500) = $120
Total Cost = $120
Therefore, Snowbird's managers are willing to pay $120
For Incremental Profit or Loss, prepare a differential analysis for the additional 200 snowboards.
Differential analysis for the additional 200 snowboards
Sales (200 snowboards × $300) $60,000
Less Incremental Production Costs ( 200 × $120) ($24,000)
Less Incremental selling and administration (200 × $20) ($4,000)
Incremental Profit $32,000
Assume that Clampett, Inc., has $390,000 of sales, $340,000 of cost of goods sold, $250,000 of interest income, and $230,000 of dividends. What is Clampett, Inc.'s excess net passive income
Answer:
Clampett, Inc.'s excess net passive income is $262,500.
Explanation:
First we need to calculate the Gross Receipt
Gross Receipt
Sales $390,000
Interest Income $250,000
Dividend $230,000
Gross receipts $870,000
25% of Gross receipt = $870,000 x 25% = $217,500
Now Calculate the passive income
Interest Income $250,000
Dividend $230,000
Passive Income $480,000
Now calculate the excess passive income
Excess passive income = Passive income - 25% of gross receipt
Excess passive income = $480,000 - $217,500 = $262,500

Cash $6,500,000
b)Journal to record payment for additional cost associated with the purchase of oil reserve
Account and particulars Debit Credit
Oil and gas properties $1,030,000
Cash $1,030,000
Calculation
550,000 for additional geological tests of the property + $ 480,000 for drilling =$1,030,000
c))Journal to record depletion expense for oil and gas properties
Account and particulars Debit Credit
Depletion expense $1,506,000
Accumulated depletion $1,506,000
Calculation
Depreciation for a unit = Cost - Residual value/ useful unit
Total cost = Purchase of oil reserve + geological tests +drilling.
= $6,500,000+550,000+$ 480,000= $7,530,000
Depreciation per unit =$7,530,000- $0/300,000 = $25.10per barrel
Depletion expense=
Depreciation for units of barrel sold =Price per barrel x units sold
$25.1 x 60,000 = $1,506,000
Second question

Total cost = Purchase of oil reserve + geological tests +drilling.
= $6,300,000+560,000+$ 440,000= $7,300,000
Depreciation per unit =$7,300,000- $0/400,000 = $18.25 per barrel
Depletion expense=

You expect your salary to be $42,000 one year from now and you also expect your salary to increase at a rate of 5% per year as long as you work. To save for your retirement, you plan on making annual contributions to a retirement account. Your first contribution will be made on your 31st birthday and will be 8% of this year's salary. Likewise, you expect to deposit 8% of your salary each year until you reach age 65. Assume that the rate of interest is 9%. The present value (PV) (at age 30) of your retirement savings is closest to
Answer:
$50,855.62
Explanation:
I prepared an excel spreadsheet to determine the yearly contributions to the plan and their future value.

Sheboygan Co. purchased a new vehicle at a cost of $42,000 on July 1. The vehicle is estimated to have a useful life of 6 years and a salvage value of $3,000. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. How much depreciation expense will be recorded for the vehicle during the first year ended December 31?
Answer:
The depreciation at the end of first year = $3250
Explanation:
The cost of a new vehicle on July 1st = $42000
The estimated useful life of vehicle = 6 years
The salvage value of vehicle = $3000
It is given that the company uses the straight-line method for depreciation so we have to calculate the depreciation by subtracting the salvage value from its cost and dividing by years.
Depreciation = ($42000 – $3000) / 6 = $6500
So annual depreciation is $6500.
Therefore depreciation at the end of the first yThe depreciation at the end of first year = $3250ear that is for 6 months = $3250

When the end-of-period spreadsheet is complete, the adjustment columns should have:_________. a) total debits greater than total credits if a net income was earned b) total debits greater than total credits if a net loss was incurred c) total debits are equal to total credits d) total credits greater than total debits if a net income was earned
Answer:
C. Total debits are equal to total credits
Explanation:
When the end-of-period spreadsheet is complete, the adjustment columns should have:
Total debits equal to total credits.

1. Write about whether or not you believe productivity would go up, down, or stay the same in an enterprise where the workers are owners versus a traditional workplace. How would this affect GDP, inflation, and other macroeconomic variables
Answer:
Productivy would go up only as long as some of the workers can become competent managers.
Explanation:
The problem with worker ownership of the means of production (the firm), which is what socialism is about, is that workers do not necessarily have managerial skill, and as result, are likely to be unable to run the company efficiently.
In case this does not happen, and the workers manage to run the company well, GDP would increase because productivity in the firm would rise. Inflation would likely fall down because more productivity means more output of goods and services, and inflation tends to have a inverse relationship with output (although it also depends on other variables like the rate of growth of the money supply).
Finally, another macroeconomic variable that would positively affected is employment rate, because a more efficient company would likely require new workers.
