Answer:
The equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method is 26,400 units.
Explanation:
The equivalent units of production for the month when the company uses the weighted average method is the addition of the units completed and transferred to next stage and degree of completion of the units in ending Work in Process inventory.
This can therefore be calculated as follows:
Equivalent units of production for the month = Units completed and transferred to next stage + Units in ending Work in Process inventory
Since,
Units completed and transferred to next stage = 16,500 units
Units in ending Work in Process inventory = 16,500 * 60% complete = 9,900 units
Therefore, we have:
Equivalent units of production for the month = 16,500 + 9,900 = 26,400 units
Therefore, the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method is 26,400 units.
The City of Southern Pines maintains its books so as to prepare fund accounting statements and records worksheet adjustments in order to prepare government-wide statements. As such, the City’s internal service fund, a motor pool fund, is included in the proprietary funds statements. Balance sheet asset accounts include: Cash, $102,000; Investments, $150,400; Due from the General Fund, $18,300; Inventories, $396,000; and Capital Assets (net), $1,169,700. Liability accounts include: Accounts Payable, $61,500; Long-Term Advance from Enterprise Fund, $738,000. The only transaction in the internal service fund that is external to the government is interest revenue in the amount of $4,400. Exclusive of the interest revenue, the internal service fund reported net income in the amount of $84,000. An examination of the records indicates that services were provided as follows: one-third to general government, one-third to public safety, and one-third to public works. Prepare necessary adjustments in order to incorporate the internal service fund in the government-wide statements as a part of governmental activities. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)
Answer: The answer has been attached
Explanation:
The journal is a book in accounting that is used to record the transactions that affect a business. It should be noted that the double entry method of bookkeeping is utilised while recording in a journal.
The journal has been attached in the following way:
1. The journal was used to record the balance sheet particulars.
2. To record the transaction in the internal service fund that is external to the government.
3. To record the internal service fund in the government-wide statements as a part of governmental activities.
It should also be noted that the net income of $84,000 was to be shared as one-third to general government, one-third to public safety, and one-third to public works. This means they'll all receive ($84,000/3) = $28,000 each.
Further explanation can be found in the attached file.
1. Prepare a journal entry showing the transfer of Job 102 into Finished Goods Inventory upon its completion. 2. Prepare the journal entries to recognize the sales revenue and cost of goods sold for Job 101. 3. Prepare the journal entry to transfer the balance of the Manufacturing Overhead account to Cost of Goods Sold.
Answer and Explanation:
Before recording the journal entries first we need to do the computations which are shown below:
The predetermined overhead rate is
= $420,000 ÷ 60,000 machine hours
= $7 per machine hour
Now
Particulars Job 101 Job 102 Job 103 Total
Direct materials used 19,200 14,400 9,600 43,200
Direct labor 28,800 11,200 9,600 49,600
overhead applied 7000 28000 14000 49000
total 55,000 53,600 33,200 141,800
COGS Finished WIP
Now the journal entries are as follows
1 Finished goods inventory $53,600
To Work in process inventory $53,600
(Being the transfer of job 102 is recorded)
2a) Cost of goods sold $55,000
To Finished goods inventory $55,000
(being the cost of goods sold is recorded)
2b) Cash $60,000
To sales revenue $60,000
(being the sales revenue is recorded)
3) Manufacturing overhead $4,000 ($49,000 - $45,000)
To Cost of goods sold $4,000
(Being the balance of the manufacturing overhead is recorded)
An electric utility is considering a new power plant in northern Arizona. Power from the plant would be sold in the Phoenix area, where it is badly needed. Because the firm has received a permit, the plant would be legal; but it would cause some air pollution. The company could spend an additional $40 million at Year 0 to mitigate the environmental Problem, but it would not be required to do so. The plant without mitigation would cost $209.71 million, and the expected cash inflows would be $70 million per year for 5 years. If the firm does invest in mitigation, the annual inflows would be $75.84 million. Unemployment in the area where the plant would be built is high, and the plant would provide about 350 good jobs. The risk adjusted WACC is 17%.a) Calculate the NPV and IRR with and without mitigation.
b) How should the environment effects be dealt with when evaluating this project?
c) Should this project be undertaken? If so, should the firm do the mitigation?
Answer:
Without Mitigation:
Net Present Value $14,244,200
IRR 19.92%
With mitigation
Net Present Value: $ -7,071,600
IRR = 15.76%
The project should be started without hte mitigation effort as would decrease the return below the cost of capital of the company.
Explanation:

An analyst wants to estimate the yield to maturity on a non-traded 4-year, annual pay bond rated A. Among actively traded bonds with the same rating, 3-year bonds are yielding 3.2% and 6-year bonds are yielding 5.0%. Using matrix pricing the analyst should estimate a YTM for the non-traded bond that is closest to:
Answer:
3.8%
Explanation:
3 year bonds yielding 3.2%
6 year bonds yielding 5.0
Annual pay bond 4 years
Yielding bond+[(Annual pay bond- Bonds years)/bond years]×(Yielding bond-Yeilding bonds)
Let plug in the formula
Interpolating: 3.2% + [(4 - 3) / (6 - 3)] × (5.0% - 3.2%)
=3.2%+[1/3×(1.8%)]
= 3.2%+(0.33333×1.8%)
=3.2%+0.006
=0.032+0.006
=0.038×100
=3.8%
Alternatively,
Interpolating: 3.2% + [(4 - 3) / (6 - 3)] × (5.0% - 3.2%) =3.8%
In this case the analyst should estimate a YTM for the non-traded bond that is closest to: 3.8%
The following selected transactions were completed by Fasteners Inc. Co., a supplier of buttons and zippers for clothing:
20Y3
Nov.
21 Received from McKenna Outer Wear Co., on account, a $66,000, 60-day, 8% note dated November 21 in settlement of a past due account.
Dec.
31 Recorded an adjusting entry for accrued interest on the note of November 21. 20Y4
Jan.
20 Received payment of note and interest from McKenna Outer Wear Co.
Required:
Journalize the entries to record the transactions.
Answer:
20Y3
Nov. 21 :
Debit Notes receivable $66,000
Credit Accounts receivable $66,000
(To recognize notes receivable iro past due account)
Dec. 31:
Debit Interest revenue $161.33
Credit Interest receivable $161.33
(To record accrued interest on notes receivable)
Jan. 20:
Debit Cash $66,880
Credit Notes receivable $66,000
Credit Interest receivable $880
(To record payment of note and interest on Nov. 21 notes)
Explanation:
Note receivable is a promissory note with a written promise made by the borrower to the lender (payee) to pay a certain, definite sum at a specified date.
Interest revenue on the notes is calculated as: Principal x Interest Rate x Time
In this case, the total interest expense is $66,000 x 8%/12 x 2 months = $880.
Total interest expense to the Company as at December 31 is therefore $880 / 60 days x 11 days = $161.33.
Mars Corp. is choosing between two different capital investment proposals. Machine A has a useful life of four years, and machine B has a useful life of six years. Each proposal requires an initial investment of $200,000, and the company desires a rate of return of 10 percent. Although machine B has a useful life of six years, it could be sold at the end of four years for $35,000.
Year Present Value of $1 at 10 Percent
1 0.909
2 0.826
3 0.751
4 0.683
5 0.621
6 0.513
Machine A will generate net cash flow of $70,000 in each of the four years. Machine B will generate $80,000 in year 1, $70,000 in year 2, $60,000 in year 3, and $40,000 per year for the remaining three years of its useful life. Which of the following statements portrays the most accurate analysis between the two proposals?
a. Mars should invest in Machine A becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is higher than the net present value of Machine B after 4 years.
b. Mars should invest in Machine B becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is lower than the net present value of Machine B after 6 years.
c. Mars should invest in Machine B becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is lower than the net present value of Machine B after 4 years.
d. Mars should invest in Machine A becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is higher than the net present value of Machine B after 6 years.
Answer:
c. Mars should invest in Machine B becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is lower than the net present value of Machine B after 4 years.
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
Considering that machine b can be sold on 4 years, The NPV of machine b should be calculated based on the cash flow in for 4 years
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator.
Machine A :
Cash flow in year 0 = $-200,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 4 = $70,000
I = 10%
NPV = 21,890.58
Machine B :
Cash flow in year 0 = $-200,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 = $80,000
Cash flow each year from year 2 = $70,000
Cash flow each year from year 3 = $60,000
Cash flow each year from year 4 = $40000 + $35,000 = $75,000
I = 10%
NPV = $26,883.41
Machine b should be accepted because its NPV is greater than that of machine A
To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute

Periodic Inc. provides formal training to newly recruited Business Developers to guide them in designing new business initiatives. The new recruits are in the _____ stage of the creative process.
Answer:
Preparation stage.
Explanation:
Since Periodic Inc. provides formal training to newly recruited Business Developers to guide them in designing new business initiatives. The new recruits are in the preparation stage of the creative process.
A creative process is a mental approach to innovation, it involves all the process of conceiving an idea and using this ideas to create a new and original product.
Generally, the creative process can be classified into five (5) stages, these are;
1. Preparation: this is typically the first stage of the creative process and it involves the process of gathering information by doing a whole lot of background research that would inspire you to do it.
2. Incubation: at this second stage of the creative process, you will let your mind wander away in imagination, in order to construct your thoughts.
3. Insight: this is the third stage of the creative process and it involves connecting the dots in your thoughts. It is simply the "eureka" moment where a perfect idea fits into your head.
4. Evaluation: this is the fourth stage of the creative process and it involves verifying and sifting your ideas to ensure they are in tandem with your aim, objectives and goals.
5. Implementation: this is the final stage of the creative process and it is the stage where the beautiful and insightful ideas are put into actions to develop a product.
Hence, the new recruits are in the preparation stage of the creative process.
Master Hatter's demand for hats is 25,000 per year. The order cost is $425 and the carrying cost is $4.50 per unit. The cost paid (price) to the hat manufacturer is $75 per hat.
A. Compute the Economic Order Quantity and enter it here.
B. The supplier has indicated that Master Hatter can have a price of $25 per hat if he orders at least 2000 at a time.
C. In order to minimize total costs (inventory plus purchase costs). Master Hatter should order blank hats and will save blank dollars each year.
Answer with its Explanation:
Part A. Economic order quantity Computation
Economic order quantity can be calculated by using the following formula:
EOQ = Squaroot of (2* D * S / H)
Here
Ordering cost per order is $425 which is S
Annual Holding cost per unit per year is $4.5 which is H
Annual Demand is 25000 Units
By putting values, we have:
EOQ = (2 * 25000 * $425 / $4.5) ^(1 / 2) = 2173 Hats
Part B.
Total Cost at EOQ = Purchasing Cost + Total Ordering cost + Holding Cost
By putting values, we have:
Total Cost = 25,000 Units * $25 per unit + ($25,000 / 2173 Hats) * $425 + (2173 Hats / 2) * $4.5 = $634,778 Annual Cost
Part C.
For ordering at-least 2000 units per order, the total cost would be:
Total Cost under 2000 order quantity = 25,000 * $25 per unit + (25000/2000) * $425 + (2000/2) * $4.5
Total Cost under 2000 order quantity = $634,813
By ordering at least 2000 hats will bring a loss of $35 ($634,778 - $634,813), hence Master Hatter must only order in EOQ.
Accounting practice in the United States follows the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) developed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), which is a nongovernmental, professional standards body that monitors accounting practices and evaluates controversial issues. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires all publicly traded companies to periodically report their financial information.
A publicly held corporation must publish an annual report that contains the balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows, statement of retained earnings, and other financial information for analysis.
The following descriptions of the major financial statements and reports that a firm publishes. Identify the correct statement or report for each description.
Description :
a. Is required by the SEC and includes the audited document that shows the company's financial results for the past year and management's discussion about the future outlook and plans
b. Gives details about the firm's sales, costs, and profits for the past accounting period
c. Details changes in the capital received from investors in exchange for stock (paid-in capital), donated capital, and retained earings.
d. Provides details about the flow of funds from operating, investing, and financing activities.
e. Summarizes a company's assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity at a specific point in time.
Answer: a. Annual Report
b. Income statement
c. Statement of Shareholder Equity.
d. Cashflow Statement
e. Balance Sheet.
Explanation:
The Annual Report is a comprehensive report that aims to show stakeholders including the SEC what the company has been up to in the previous year. It analyzes the business's financial report and also the strategic goals of the business as well.
The Income Statement lets stakeholders know how the company's business transactions went for the previous period. It shows how much goods and services were sold as well as the expenses involved.
The Statement of Shareholder Equity aims to show how the business's dealings during the year have impacted the ownership of the company. It shows the Capital and the Retained Earnings.
The Cashflow Statement aims to show just how much actual cash that the business has. To do so it usually divides the cash transactions into Operating, Investing, and Financing activities.
The Balance Sheet summarizes the components of the Accounting Equation which includes Assets, Liabilities and Equity. This way a person can see at a glance how the business operates.
Bonita Company uses a job order cost system in each of its three manufacturing departments. Manufacturing overhead is applied to jobs on the basis of direct labor cost in Department D, direct labor hours in Department E, and machine hours in Department K.
In establishing the predetermined overhead rates for 2020, the following estimates were made for the year.
Department
D E K
Manufacturing overhead $990,000 $1,750,000 $1,080,000
Direct labor costs $1,237,500 $1,875,000 $675,000
Direct labor hours 150,000 125,000 60,000
Machine hours 600,000 750,000 120,000
During January, the job cost sheets showed the following costs and production data.
Department
D E K
Direct materials used $140,000 $126,000 $78,000
Direct labor costs $120,000 $110,000 $37,500
Manufacturing overhead incurred $99,000 $124,000 $79,000
Direct labor hours 8,000 11,000 3,500
Machine hours 34,000 45,000 10,400
Required:
a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each department.
b. Compute the total manufacturing costs assigned to jobs in January in each department.
c. Compute the under- or overapplied overhead for each department at January 31.
Answer:
a.Department D = $0.80 per direct labor cost, Department E = $14 per direct labor hour, Department K = $9 per machine hour.
b.Department D = $96,000, Department E = $154,000, Department K = $93,600
c.Department D = $ 3,000 Under-applied, Department E = $30,000 Over-applied, Department K = $14,600 Over-applied
Explanation:
Predetermined Overhead Rate is used to apportion Factory Overheads to Jobs or Products.
Predetermined Overhead Rate = Budgeted Overheads / Budgeted Activity
Department D = $990,000 / $1,237,500
= $0.80 per direct labor cost
Department E = $1,750,000 / 125,000
= $14 per direct labor hour
Department K = $1,080,000 / 120,000
= $9 per machine hour
Overheads Assigned to Jobs = Predetermined Overhead Rate × Actual Activity.
Department D = $0.80 × $120,000
= $96,000
Department E = $14 × 11,000
= $154,000
Department K = $9 × 10,400
= $93,600
If, Actual Overheads > Assigned Overheads = Under-applied
If, Actual Overheads < Assigned Overheads = Over-applied
Department D = $ 99,000 - $96,000
= $ 3,000 Under-applied
Department E = $154,000 - $124,000
= $30,000 Over-applied
Department K = $93,600 - $79,000
= $14,600 Over-applied
A machine that cost $500,000 has an estimated residual value of $25,000 and an estimated useful life of five years. The company uses straight-line depreciation. Calculate its book value at the end of year 4. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
$120,000
Explanation:
Book value in year 1 = Cost of asset - Depreciation expense of year 1
Book value in year in subsequent years = previous book value - that year's depreciation expense
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
( $500,000 - $25,000 ) / 5 = $95,000
The depreciation expense each year would be $95,000.
Book value in year 1 = $500,000 - $95,000 = $405,000
Book value in year 2 =$405,000 - $95,000 = $310,000
Book value in year 3 = $310,000 - $95,000 = $215,000
Book value in year 4 =$215,000 - $95,000 = $120,000

Value of a retirement annuity Personal Finance Problem An insurance agent is trying to sell you an annuity, that will provide you with $6 comma 200 at the end of each year for the next 20 years. If you don't purchase this annuity, you can invest your money and earn a return of 4%. What is the most you would pay for this annuity right now? Ignoring taxes, the most you would pay for this annuity is
Answer:
The maximum to be paid= $84,260.023
Explanation:
The maximum amount to be paid is the present value of the series of annual cash inflow discounted at the opportunity cost rate of 4% per annum.
This is given in the relationship below:
PV = A ×( 1- (1+r)^(-n))/r )
A- annual amount receivable- 6,200. r-rate of return - 4%, n-number of years- 20
PV = 6,200 × ( 1 - (1+0.04)^(-20)/0.04)
= 6,200 × 13.5903
= $84,260.023
The maximum to be paid= $84,260.023
Gerald received a one-third capital and profit (loss) interest in XYZ Limited Partnership (LP). In exchange for this interest, Gerald contributed a building with an FMV of $37,000. His adjusted basis in the building was $18,500. In addition, the building was encumbered with a $9,750 nonrecourse mortgage that XYZ LP assumed at the time the property was contributed. What is Gerald's outside basis immediately after his contribution
Answer:
$12,000
Explanation:
According to the given situation,the computation of the outside basis is shown below:-
Total Outside basis = Adjusted basis - Non-recourse mortgage + G's share of mortgage
= $18,500 - $9,750 + ($9,750 × 3)
= $18,500 - $9,750 + $3,250
= $12,000
Therefore for computing the total outside basis we simply applied the abovbe formula.

art E14 is used by M Corporation to make one of its products. A total of 20,000 units of this part are produced and used every year. The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the part at this level of activity: Per Unit Direct materials $ 4.30 Direct labor $ 8.90 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 9.40 Supervisor's salary $ 4.80 Depreciation of special equipment $ 3.20 Allocated general overhead $ 8.40 An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $30.30 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including the direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company, none of which would be avoided if the part were purchased instead of produced internally. In addition, the space used to make part E14 could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $32,000 per year for that product. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of buying part E14 from the outside supplier should be:
Answer:
It is more profitable to continue making the product. On this level of production, the company saves $26,000 if it makes the product in-house.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units= 20,000
Per Unit Cost:
Direct materials $4.30
Direct labor $8.90
Variable manufacturing overhead $9.40
Supervisor's salary $4.80
An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $30.30 each.
Rent space= $32,000 per year
We will take into account only the differential costs.
Make in-house:
Total cost= 20,000* (4.3 + 8.9 + 9.4 + 4.8)= $548,000
Buy:
Total cost= 20,000*30.3 - 32,000= $574,000
It is more profitable to continue making the product. On this level of production, the company saves $26,000 if it makes the product in-house.

5. Sarasota Bicycles has been manufacturing its own wheels for its bikes. The company is currently operating at 100% capacity, and variable manufacturing overhead is charged to production at the rate of 30% of direct labor cost. The direct materials and direct labor cost per unit to make the wheels are $3.00 and $3.60 respectively. Normal production is 200,000 wheels per year. A supplier offers to make the wheels at a price of $8 each. If the bicycle company accepts this offer, all variable manufacturing costs will be eliminated, but the $84,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead currently being charged to the wheels will have to be absorbed by other products. Required: a. Prepare an incremental analysis for the decision to make or buy the wheels. b. Should Sarasota Bicycles buy the wheels from the outside supplier
Answer:
It is better to make the wheels
Explanation:
Sarasota Bicycles
Incremental Analysis
Make Buy
Direct materials $3.00
Direct labor $3.60

Normal production 200,000 200,000
Total Costs 1536000 1600,000
Fixed Overheads 84,000 84,000
Total Costs 1620,000 1684,000
As fixed costs are irrelevant costs that would not change whether the company makes or buys wheels and the cost to make the wheels $7.08 is less than the cost to buy $ 8.0. It is better to make the wheels . Buying the wheels from the outside supplier is costly.
a. Incremental Analysis for making the wheels at Sarasota Bicycles is as follows:
Make Buy Differential
Alternative 1 Alternative 2 Cost
Relevant cost per unit $7.68 $8.00 $0.32 ($8.00 - $7.68)
Total cost $1,536,000 $1,600,000 $64,000 (200,000 x $0.32)
b. Sarasota should not buy the wheels from the outside supplier. It should continue to make them as it saves $64,000 per year from making the wheels.
Data and Calculations:
Direct materials cost per unit = $3.00
Direct labor cost per unit = $3.60
Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.08 ($3.60 x 30%)
Total variable cost per unit = $7.68
Number of wheels per year = 200,000
Outside Supplier's Price = $8 per unit
Thus, Sarasota Bicycles gains $64,000 by making the wheels instead of buying from the outside supplier.

The following dividends will be $.32, $.47, and $.77 a share annually for the following three years, respectively. After that, dividends are projected to increase by 2.3 percent per year. How much are you willing to pay today to buy one share of this stock if your desired rate of return is 12 percent
Answer:
The maximum hat should be paid for the stock today is $6.48
Explanation:
The price of the stock today can be calculated using the dividend discount model. It bases the price or value of a stock on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.
The price of the stock today is,
P0 = 0.27/(1+0.12) + 0.32/(1+0.12)^2 + 0.47/(1+0.12)^3 + 0.77/(1+0.12)^4
[ (0.77 * (1+0.023)) / (0.12 - 0.023) ] / (1+0.12)^4
P0 = $6.48092 rounded off to $6.48

Suppose that a young couple has just had their first baby and they wish to ensure that enough money will be available to pay for their child's college education. Currently, college tuition, books, fees, and other costs average $20,000 per year. On average, tuition and other costs have historically increased at a rate of 6% per year. Assuming that college costs continue to increase an average of 6% per year and that all her college savings are invested in an account paying 8% interest, then the amount of money she will need to have available at age 20 to pay for all four years of her undergraduate education is closest to ________.
Answer:
$256,571
Explanation:
College Graduation fee for four years in the present value
PV = $20,000 x 4 = $80,000
As historically the fee has risen by 6% we need to find future value when the baby will be 20 years old by using future value formula
Let's say
FV = Future value
PV = Present value
n = number of years
i = Interest
Workings
FV = PV x ((1+growth rate)^n)
FV = $80,000 x ( (1+0.06)^20)
FV = $256,571
As the bank interest rate is 8% the saving need to be deposited annualy can be calculated as
Savings = (FV x i) / ((1+i)^n)-1)
Savings = ($256,571 x 0.08) / ((1+0.08)^20)-1)
Savings = 20,525.68 / 3.66
Savings = $5,608
The following monthly data are available for Sheridan Company which produces only one product: Selling price per unit, $38; Unit variable expenses, $14; Total fixed expenses, $42000; Actual sales for the month of June, 7000 units. How much is the margin of safety for the company for June
Answer:
$199,500
Explanation:
The computation of the margin of safety is shown below:
As we know that
margin of safety = Actual sales - break even sales
where,
Actual sales is
= Actual sales units × Selling price per unit
= 7,000 units × $38
= $266,000
And, the break even sales is
= Fixed cost ÷ contribution margin per unit
= $42,000 ÷ ($38 - $14)
= $42,000 ÷ $24
= 1,750 units
Now the break even sales is
= Break even units × selling price per unit
= 1,750 units × $38
= $66,500
So, the margin of safety is
= $266,000 - $66,500
= $199,500
The balance in Ashwood Company's Accounts Payable account at December 31, 2016, was $1,200,000 before any necessary year-end adjustment relating to the following: Goods were in transit from a vendor to Ashwood on December 31, 2016. The invoice cost was $85,000, and the goods were shipped FOB shipping point on December 29, 2016. The goods were received on January 2, 2017. Goods shipped FOB shipping point on December 20, 2016, from a vendor to Ashwood were lost in transit. The invoice cost was $40,000. On January 5, 2017, Ashwood filed a $40,000 claim against the common carrier. Goods shipped FOB destination on December 22, 2016, from a vendor to Ashwood were received on January 6, 2017. The invoice cost was $20,000. What amount should Ashwood report as accounts payable on its December 31, 2016, balance sheet? a. $1,345,000 b. $1,325,000 c. $1,260,000 d. $1,285,000
Answer:
$1,325,000 is the amount to be recorded as accounts payable on Ashwood's report of 31 December, 2016 balance sheet
Explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the amount that Ashwood should report as accounts payable on its December 31, 2016 balance sheet.
The correct answer to this is adding together : The balance in Ashwood Company's Accounts Payable account at December 31, 2016 + Invoice cost of goods in transit from vendor on December 31, 2016 + invoice cost of goods lost in transit
From the question, we can identify the following;
Balance in Ashwood Company's Accounts Payable account at December 31, 2016 = $1,200,000
invoice cost of goods in transit from vendor on December 31, 2016 = $85,000
invoice cost of goods lost in transit = $40,000
Plugging these values into the equation, we have;
1,200,000 + 85,000 + 40,000 = $1,325,000
Synovec Co. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 24 percent for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 7 percent thereafter. If the required return is 11 percent, and the company just paid a dividend of $2.05, what is the current share price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
The current price per share is $84.16
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) estimates the value of a share/stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. We will use the two stage growth model of DDM here as the growth in dividends of the stock is divided into two stages.
The formula for current price under two stage growth model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n +
[( D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2)) / (r - g2)] / (1+r)^n
Where,
g1 is initial growth rate
g2 is the constant growth rate
r is the required rate of return
So, the price of the stock today will be,
P0 = 2.05 * (1+0.24) / (1+0.11) + 2.05 * (1+0.24)^2 / (1+0.11)^2 +
2.05 * (1+0.24)^3 / (1+0.11)^3 + [( 2.05 * (1+0.24)^3 * (1+0.07)) / (0.11 - 0.07)] / (1+0.11)^3
P0 = $84.1556 rounded off to $84.16
Oscar Clemente is the manager of Forbes Division of Pitt, Inc., a manufacturer of biotech products. Forbes Division, which has $4 million in assets, manufactures a special testing device. At the beginning of the current year, Forbes invested $5 million in automated equipment for test machine assembly. The division's expected income statement at the beginning of the year was as follows:Sales revenue $ 16,000,000 Operating costs Variable 2,000,000 Fixed (all cash) 7,500,000 Depreciation New equipment 1,500,000 Other 1,250,000 Division operating profit $ 3,750,000A sales representative from LSI Machine Company approached Oscar in October. LSI has for $6.5 million a new assembly machine that offers significant improvements over the equipment Oscar bought at the beginning of the year. The new equipment would expand division output by 10 percent while reducing cash fixed costs by 5 percent. It would be depreciated for accounting purposes over a three-year life. Depreciation would be net of the $500,000 salvage value of the new machine. The new equipment meets Pitt's 20 percent cost of capital criterion. If Oscar purchases the new machine, it must be installed prior to the end of the year. For practical purposes, though, Oscar can ignore depreciation on the new machine because it will not go into operation until the start of the next year. The old machine, which has no salvage value, must be disposed of to make room for the new machine. Pitt has a performance evaluation and bonus plan based on ROI. The return includes any losses on disposal of equipment. Investment is computed based on the end-of-year balance of assets, net book value. Ignore taxes. Oscar Clemente is still assessing the problem of whether to acquire LSI’s assembly machine. He learns that the new machine could be acquired next year, but if he waits until then, it will cost 15 percent more. The salvage value would still be $500,000. Other costs or revenue estimates would be apportioned on a month-by-month basis for the time each machine (either the current machine or the machine Oscar is considering) is in use. Fractions of months may be ignored. Ignore taxes.Required: Calculate ROI for the coming year assuming that the new equipment is bought at the beginning of the year. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to nearest whole percentage.)

ROI = $1,900,000/$4,500,000 x 100 = 42.222%
(Return on Investment = Operating Income/net book value of new investment x 100)
Explanation:
a) Forbes Division's Expected Income Statement at the beginning of the year: Year 1 Year 2
Sales revenue $ 16,000,000 $ 17,600,000
Operating costs:
Variable 2,000,000 2,200,000

Disposal of old equipment (loss) 3,500,000
Division operating profit $ 3,750,000 $ 1,900,000
b) Return on Investment (ROI) is a financial performance measure which evaluates the efficiency of an investment, by trying to directly measure the amount of return on a particular investment, relative to the investment's cost.
c) The Formula for ROI calculation is to subtract the initial value of the investment from the final value of the investment (which equals the net return), then dividing this new number (the net return) by the cost of the investment, and, finally, multiplying it by 100. In this Forbes Division, the operating income is taken as the difference between the initial value of the investment and the final value of the investment.
Jack's Construction Co. has 80,000 bonds outstanding that are selling at par value. Bonds with similar characteristics are yielding 8.5%. The company also has 4 million shares of common stock outstanding. The stock has a beta of 1.1 and sells for $40 a share. The U.S. Treasury bill is yielding 4% and the market risk premium is 8%. Jack's tax rate is 35%. What is Jack's weighted average cost of capital
Answer:
The answer is =10.36%
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is a way that a company calculates its cost of financing and acquiring assets by comparing the debt and equity structure of the business.
WACC = WeRe + WdRd
We is weight of equity
Re is cost of equity
Wd is weight of debt
Rd is cost of debt
For its cost of equity:
Ke = Rf + beta(market risk premium)
Where Ke is cost of equity
Rf is risk free rate of return( treasury bill return)
4% + 1.1 x 8%
= 12.8%
Total debt 80,000 x $1,000 = $80million
Common: 4million x $40 = $160million
Total = $80milllion + $160million
=$240million.
Therefore, WACC is
WdRd= 80/240 x [8.5% x(1-35%)]
80/240 x 5.5%
=1.83%
WeRe = 160/240 x 12.8%
= 8.53%
=1.83% + 8.53%
=10.36%

10. Problems and Applications Q10 High-income people are willing to pay more than lower-income people to avoid the risk of death. For example, they are more likely to pay for safety features on cars. True or False: One reason a rich town may put in a traffic light while a poor town does not is that the rich town may value a human life more highly in its cost-benefit analysis. True False
Answer:
True
True
Explanation:
Cost benefit analysis is used in decision making. This involves weighting the cost of doing something to the benefit derived from it which can be monetary or in this case non-monetary.
The cost benefit analysis is subjective and in our case it differs from lower-income people to that of higher - income people. A rich town may value a human life more highly in its cost-benefit analysis and would be willing to pay more than lower-income people to avoid the risk of death.
