Using the average-cost method, the amount allocated to the ending inventory on June 30 is

Answers

Answer:

Ending inventory cost= $599

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

June 1 150 units $ 390 (2.6)

June 10 200 units 585 (2.93)

June 15 200 units 630 (3.15)

June 28 150 units 495 (3.3)

Ending inventory in units= 200

To calculate the ending inventory, first, we need to calculate the average price:

Average price= (2.6 + 2.93 + 3.15 + 3.3) / 4= $2.995

Now, the ending inventory:

Ending inventory= 2.995*200

Ending inventory= $599

a. 22 and 18
b. 23.16 and 16.84
c. 22.29 and 16.71
d. 23.5 and 16.5
e. 24 and 16

Answers

Answer:

b. 23.16 and 16.84

Explanation:

Mean (X-bar) = Sum of observations / No of observations

Range (R) = Highest observation - Lowest observation

Machine 1

Mean (X-bar) = (17 + 15 + 15 + 17) / 4

Mean (X-bar) = 16

Range (R) = (17 - 15)

Range (R) = 2

Machine 2

Mean (X-bar) = (16 + 25 + 18 + 25) / 4

Mean (X-bar) = 21

Range (R) = (25 - 16)

Range (R) = 9

Machine 3

Mean (X-bar) = (23 + 24 + 23 + 22) / 4

Mean (X-bar) = 23  

Range (R) = (24 - 22)

Range (R) = 2

Mean of means (X-double bar) = Sum of X-bar / Number of samples = (16 + 21 + 23) / 3 = 20

Mean of ranges (R-bar) = Sum of R / Number of samples = (2 + 9 + 2) / 3  = 4.33

From table of constants for calculating the 3-sigma upper and lower control limits, For n = 4, A2 = 0.729

UCL = X-double bar + (A2 x R-bar)

UCL = 20 + (0.729 x 4.33)

UCL = 23.1566

UCL = 23.16

LCL = X-double bar - (A2 x R-bar)

LCL = 20 - (0.729 x 4.33)

LCL = 16.8434

LCL = 16.84

Tamarisk, Inc. purchased a delivery truck for $29,200 on January 1, 2020. The truck has an expected salvage value of $2,200, and is expected to be driven 100,000 miles over its estimated useful life of 8 years. Actual miles driven were 16,100 in 2020 and 12,800 in 2021.
1. Calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.
2. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double- declining-balance method.
3. Prepare the journal entry to record 2020 depreciation.
4. Assume that Marigold uses the straight-line method. Show how the truck would be reported in the December 31, 2020, balance sheet.

Answers

Answer:

1. Depreciation expense per mile = $0.27 per mile

2-1. The straight-line method

We have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = $3,375

Depreciation expense for 2021 = $3,375

2-2. Units-of-activity method

We have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = $4,347

Depreciation expense for 2021 = $3,456

2-3. The double-declining-balance method

We have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = $7,300

Depreciation expense for 2021 = $5,475

3. See the journal entries below.

4. Net book value = $25,825

Explanation:

1. Calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.

Depreciation expense per mile = (Purchase price delivery truck - Expected salvage value) / Expected driven miles = ($29,200 - $2,200) / 100,000 = $0.27 per mile

2. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double- declining-balance method.

2-1. The straight-line method

Annual depreciation expense = (Purchase price of the delivery truck - Expected salvage value) / Estimated useful life = ($29,200 - $2,200) / 8 = $3,375

Therefore, we have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = Annual depreciation expense = $3,375

Depreciation expense for 2021 = Annual depreciation expense = $3,375

2-2. Units-of-activity method

Depreciable amount = Purchase price of the delivery truck - Expected salvage value = $29,200 - $2,200 = $27,000

Therefore, we have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = Depreciable amount * (Actual miles driven in 2020 / Expected driven miles) = $27,000 * (16,100 / 100,000) = $4,347

Depreciation expense for 2021 = Depreciable amount * (Actual miles driven in 2021 / Expected driven miles) = $27,000 * (12,800 / 100,000) = $3,456

2-3. The double-declining-balance method

Straight-line method depreciation rate = 1 / Estimated useful life = 1 / 8 = 0.1250, or 12.50%

Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = Straight-line method depreciation rate * 2 = 12.50% * 2 = 25%

Therefore, we have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = Purchase price of the delivery truck * Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = $29,200 * 25% = $7,300

Depreciation expense for 2021 = (Purchase price of the delivery truck - Depreciation expense for 2020) * Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = ($29,200 - $7,300) * 25% = $5,475

The average variable costs of a company are equal to $20 per unit produced at its current level of output in the short run. Its average fixed costs are equal to $30 per unit produced. The total costs at this output level are equal to $2,500.

Required:
a. What is the company’s current output level?
b. What are the total variable costs at this output level?
c. What are the total fixed costs?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the number of units produced:

Number of units= total cost/ average unitary cost

Number of units= 2,500 / (20 + 30)

Number of units= 50 units

Now, the total variable cost:

Total variable cost= 50*20

Total variable cost= $1,000

Finally, the fixed costs:

Fixed cost= 50*30

Fixed cost= $1,500

Answers

Answer: c. vertical, which implies that monetary and fiscal policies cannot influence the level of unemployment in the long run.

Explanation:

The Phillip Curve is used to show that unemployment and inflation have an inverse relationship such that when inflation is increasing, unemployment is decreasing. Fiscal and monetary policies can be used to increase or decrease inflation and unemployment.

In the long run however, the Philips Curve is vertical which means that unemployment will no longer be affected by fiscal and monetary policies that aim to impart inflation because the economy will be at the natural rate of unemployment.

Answers

Answer:

The amount that would be shown as a transfer out in the governmental activities column in the Statement of Activities would be:

= $0.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Transfer from the General Fund to a debt service fund = $1,100,000

You are the manager of a local bank. Due to unstable financial conditions, savers are worried that your bank may fail. When they show up in large numbers to withdraw their savings, you find that you do not have enough cash to meet the obligations. Where can you turn for a loan if no other bank will lend to you? The stock market The bond markets The discount window The market for overnight loans

Answers

Answer:

The discount window

Explanation:

As we can see that there is a liquidity problem for the bank as it has not enough funds to payoff back to the depositors. Also No other bank is ready to lend.

The discount window would be the monetary policy instrument that controlled by the central bank in which it permits the institutions that they are eligible for borrow the money so that they could meet their shortage and this money would be lend for short term duration by the central bank

Therefore it is a discount window

Robert Company, which allocates overhead to production on the basis of machine hours, reported the following data for the period just ended:

Actual units produced: 12,000
Actual variable overhead incurred: $77,770
Actual machine hours worked: 18,800
Standard variable overhead cost per machine hour: $4.50

Robert estimates that it takes 1.5 hours to manufacture a completed unit.

Required:
Compute all standards & variances. Prepare all journal entries using standard costing.

Answers

Answer:

Variable overhead rate variance = Actual Variable overhead incurred - Actual Hours of Input, at Standard Rate

Variable overhead rate variance = ($4.5*18800 - $77,700)

Variable overhead rate variance  = $6,900 Favorable

Variable overhead efficiency variance = Actual Hours of Input, at Standard Rate - Standard Hours allowed for Actual Output at Standard Rate

Variable overhead efficiency variance = (12000*1.5 - $18,800)*$4.5 =

Variable overhead efficiency variance  = $3,600 Unfavorable

Variable overhead cost variance = Actual Variable overhead incurred - Standard Hours allowed for Actual Output at Standard Rate

Variable overhead cost variance  = (12000*1.5*$4.5) - $77,700

Variable overhead cost variance  = $3,300 Favorable

Irene has made Sara an offer on the purchase of a capital asset. Irene will pay (1) $200,000 cash or (2) $50,000 cash and a 6% installment note for $150,000 guaranteed by City Bank of New York. If Sara sells for $200,000 cash, she will invest the after-tax proceeds in certificates of deposit yielding 6% interest. Sara’s cost of the asset is $25,000. Why would Sara prefer the installment sale?

Answers

Answer:

Irene would prefer the instalment sale because she can defer the payment of tax until a future date. On the other hand, if she accept the cash sale, she would have to pay the tax immediately. The amount invested in certificate of deposit would be after tax.

Thus the value of an instalment payment would be greater than the value of a cash payment

Explanation:

As a policy option for regulating natural monopoly, average (total) cost pricing is attractive because Select one: a. the resulting output exceeds that which would occur in a perfectly competitive industry. b. the losses that occur are a sign that consumers are not harmed by the firm's exercise of market power. c. it ensures productive efficiency. d. the regulated firm will always break even.

Answers

Answer: c. it ensures productive efficiency.

Explanation:

The average cost pricing is used by the government in order to control the price that may be charged by the monopolist.

With the average cost pricing, monopolists are forced to reduce the price that twhy charge for a product to a point whereby the average total cost of the firm and the market demand curve will intersect.

This is vital as it brings about productive efficiency, increase production and also the reduction in the price of a good.

Therefore, the correct option is C "it ensures productive efficiency".

Explanation:

When a business is faced with a problem of shortage of a resource which can be used to produced more than one product type, to maximize the use of the resource , the business should allocate the scare resource for production purpose in such a way that it maximizes the contribution per unit of the scare resource.

The labour hours required per unit of scarce resource=

Basic    = 1/10 hr=  0.10

Classic =1/8 hr    = 0.13          

Deluxe= 1/4  hr   = 0.25

                                                  Basic               Classic           Deluxe

Contribution per  unit                  15                       25                 55

Hour per unit                             0.10                     0.13               0.25

Contribution per hour              150                       200                220

Product         Unit                                         Hours used

Deluxe        180,000    180000×  0.25         45,000

Classic         468,000   468,00×   0.13          58,500

Basic            365,000**    365,000×0.10       36,500*

Total hours                                                        140,000

*   = 140,000 - 45,000-58500= 36,500 hours

**  = 36,500 hours/0.1 hour = 365,000 units

Units to be produced = 36,500/0.10= 365,000 units

Profitable sales mix :

Deluxe - 180,000 units,

Classic - 58,500 units,

Basic- 365,000 units

 

Jonathan has a debt of $3,000 that needs to be repaid with 3 annual equal principal repayments with interest on the outstanding balance. The debt has an annual effective interest rate of 8%. In order to match his payment obligations exactly, Jonathan decides to purchase the following zero coupon bonds. Time to Maturity Par Value 1 year $1,000 2 years $ 800 3 years $ 900 Calculate the number of units of the 3-year bond Jonathan should buy, assuming fractional purchase is possible

Answers

Answer:

Jonathan

The number of units of the 3-year bond that Jonathan should buy is:

3.88 or 3 and 22/25 bonds.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Present value of debt = $3,000

Annual effective interest rate = 8%

Total future value of the debt with interest = $3,492.30

Equal annual repayment of the debt = $1,164.10 ($3,492.30/3)

Number of 3-year bond that Jonathan should buy = $3,492.30/$900 = 3.88 or 3 and 22/25 bonds

Time to Maturity    Par Value

1 year                        $1,000

2 years                      $ 800

3 years                      $ 900

From an online calculator, the total amount to be paid with interest is $3,492.30:

N (# of periods)  3

I/Y (Interest per year)  8

PV (Present Value)  3000

FV (Future Value)  0  

Results

PMT = $1,164.10

Sum of all periodic payments $3,492.30

Total Interest $492.30

Answer:

1.2

Explanation:

Given that we are making 3 Equal Principle Payments on a loan of $3000, the principle that we will repay each year will be [tex]\frac{3000}{3} = $1000[/tex].

First Year:

The interest that we will need to repay during the first year will be 3000*.08 which will be $240 dollars of interest, so we will be paying a total of 1000 + 240, or $1240 for the first year reducing the amount due to $2000.

Second Year:

The interest that we will need to repay during the second year will be 2000*.08 which will be $160 of interest, so we will be paying a total of 1000 + 160, or $1160 which will reduce the amount due $1000.

Third Year:

This is the year that we care for. We have a total interest amount of $80, so we will be paying a total of $1080 for the third year.

Given that the par value of the Zero Coupon bond for the third year is $900, we will need [tex]\frac{1080}{900} = 1.2[/tex] coupons for the final year, giving us our answer of 1.2 3-year bonds that Jonathan should buy.

A company had credit sales of $46,000 and cash sales of $18,000 during the month of May. Also during May, the company paid wages of $16,000 and utilities of $5800. It also received payments from customers on account totaling $15,800. At the beginning of May, the company had a cash balance of $25,000. What is the company's cash balance at the end of May

Answers

Answer:

the cash balance at the end of May is $37,000

Explanation:

The computation of the cash balance at the end of May is shown below:

= Opening cash balance + cash sales + received payment - paid wages - utilities

= $25,000 + $18,000 + $15,800 - $16,000 - $5,800

= $37,000

Hence, the cash balance at the end of May is $37,000

We simply applied the above formula to determine the cash balance at the end of May
