A publishing house is using 400 printers and 200 printing presses to produce books. The printers' wage rate is $20 and the price of a printing press is $100. The last printer added 20 books to total output, while the last press added 50 books to total output. In order to maximize the number of books published with a budget of $28,000, the publishing house

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The publishing house is not using cost minimizing combination of printers and printing press.

Explanation:

The publishing house go towards more of printers and less of printing press because the cost of printing price is almost three times higher than the cots of printers. Also the output of printing press is lower and the output of printers is almost double. The publishing house should use such a combination of both the available resources which maximizes its revenue.

Answers

Answer:

option 1

$4,056,237.49

Explanation:

To determine the better option, we have to determine the present value of options 2 and 3

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

option 2

Cash flow in year 0 = $34,000

Cash flow in year 1  to 6 =  $9,300  

I = 7 %

PV =  78,328.82

Option 2

Cash flow in year 1  to 6 =  $$18,400

I = 7 %

PV = 87704.33

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

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  

It is the first option that has the highest value

The formula for calculating future value = A / annuity factor

Rainey Company's true cash balance at October 31 is $4,700. The following information is available for the bank reconciliation: Outstanding checks, $740 Deposits in transit, $540 Bank service charges, $110 The bank had collected an account receivable for Rainey Company, $1,200 The bank statement included an NSF check written by one of Ramsey's customers for $720. What was the unadjusted book balance at October 31

Answers

Answer: $4330

Explanation:

The unadjusted book balance at October 31 is calculated below:

True cash balance = $4700

Add: Bank service charge = $110

Add: NSF Check = $720

Less: Account receivable = $1200

Unadjusted book balance = $4330

On average, your firm receives 65 checks a day from customers. These checks, on average, are worth $39.90 each and clear the bank in 1.5 days. In addition, your firm disburses 38 checks a day with an average amount of $89.50. These checks clear your bank in 2 days. What is the average amount of the collection float? $2,473.80 $3,401.00 $3,890.25 $5,101.50 $6,802.00

Answers

Answer:

$3,890.25

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the average amount of the collection float

Using this formula

Collection float =Average Checks received ×Average checks worth×Bank checks clearing numbers of days

Let plug in the formula

Collection float =65 x $39.90 x 1.5 days

Collection float = $3,890.25

Therefore the average amount of the collection float will be $3,890.25

Times-Roman Publishing Company reports the following amounts in its first three years of operation: ($ in thousands) 2021 2022 2023 Subscription revenue recognized (earned) $ 350 $ 360 $ 320 Subscription payments received in cash 390 340 360 The difference between pretax accounting income and taxable income is due to subscription revenue for one-year magazine subscriptions being reported for tax purposes in the year received, but reported in the income statement in later years when the performance obligation is satisfied. The income tax rate is 25% each year. Times-Roman anticipates profitable operations in the future. Required: 1. What is the balance sheet account that gives rise to a temporary difference in this situation

Answers

Answer: Unearned subscription revenue.

Explanation:

Tax is made on a cash basis which means that a transaction is eligible for taxation once cash has been paid for it. Businesses however have to use the Accrual basis which only record transactions in the period that they have been incurred.

In this scenario, there is more subscription payment in cash than the company recognized which means that the company has not yet delivered the service they were paid for and so could not recognize the subscriptions. They will however be taxed on those amounts because the cash has come in.

The account giving this temporary difference is therefore the Unearned Subscription Revenue account.

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:

Answers

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.

Which of the following statements about annuities are true? Check all that apply. An ordinary annuity of equal time earns less interest than an annuity due. Annuities are structured to provide fixed payments for a fixed period of time. When equal payments are made at the beginning of each period for a certain time period, they are treated as ordinary annuities. When equal payments are made at the beginning of each period for a certain time period, they are treated as an annuity due.

Answers

Answer:

The true statements are:

Annuities are structured to provide fixed payments for a fixed period of time.

When equal payments are made at the beginning of each period for a certain time period, they are treated as an annuity due.

Explanation:

Annuities provide fixed payments for a lifetime or a specified period of time.  With equal payments at the beginning of each period for a fixed period of time, the annuity is regarded as an annuity due.  But with equal payments at the end of the period, it is an ordinary annuity.  A common example of annuity due is payment for Rent at the beginning of the month or year.  If the Rent is paid at the end of the month or year, it is an ordinary annuity.

An investor thought that market interest rates were going to decline. He paid $19,000 for a corporate bond with a face value of $20,000. The bond has an interest rate of 10% per year payable annually. If the investor plans to sell the bond immediately after receiving the 4th interest payment, how much will he have to receive in order to make a return of 14% per year? Solve using:

a. tabulated factors
b. the GOAL SEEK tool on a spreadsheet.

Answers

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

a. In this part, we need to calculate the present worth using the formula to calculate the sale price of the bond.

As the coupon rate = 10% per year

So,

The Annual dividend will = 2000 = 10% x 20,000

19000 = 2000 (P/A, 14%,4) + B(P/F,14%,4)

19000 = 2000 (2.9137) + B (0.592)

Solving for B = Desired sales price of the bond

B = [tex]\frac{19000 - 5827.4}{0.592}[/tex]

B = 22251

b. Part b of this question is to solve using GOAL SEEK feature of a spreadsheet so, I have attached it in the attachment. Please refer to the attachment for the solution of part b.

Chen Company's Small Motor Division manufactures a number of small motors used in household and office appliances. The Household Division of Chen then assembles and packages such items as blenders and juicers. Both divisions are free to buy and sell any of their components internally or externally. The following costs relate to small motor LN233 on a per unit basis.
Fixed cost per unit $5.20
Variable cost per unit $10.81
Selling price per unit $34.55
Assuming that the Small Motor Division has excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of small motor LN233 to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Minimum transfer price $ per unit
Assuming that the Small Motor Division does not have excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of the small motor to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

1. If the small motor division has excess capacity,

Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost

Variable cost per unit = $10.81

Add:

Opportunity cost per unit = $0.00 (Because the company has sufficient excess capacity)

Minimum transfer price = $10.81

2. If the small motor division has excess capacity,

Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost

Variable cost per unit = $10.81

Add:

Opportunity cost per unit = $23.74 (As the company has no excess capacity, contribution lost is the opportunity cost)

Minimum transfer price = $34.55

N.B

Contribution lost = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $34,55 - $10.8 = $23.74

You have decided that one year from today you will begin depositing 3 percent of your annual salary in an account that will earn 11 percent per year. Your salary will increase at 6 percent per year throughout your career.
Required: How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today?

Answers

Answer:

The amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.

Explanation:

This can be determined using the formula for calculating the future value of growing annuity as follows:

FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - (1 + g)^n) / (r - g)) ...................................... (1)

Where

FV = Future value or the amount on the date of retirement = ?

M = First annual deposit = Annual salary * Deposit percentage = $58,000 * 3% = $1,740

r = annual interest rate = 11%, or 0.11

g = salary growth rate = 6%, or 0.06

n = number of years = 40 years

Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:

FV = $1,740 * (((1 + 0.11)^40 - (1 + 0.06)^40) / (0.11 - 0.06))

FV = $1,740 * 1,094.30298736951

FV = $1,904,087.20

Therefore, the amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.
