Answer:
1)
If the manufacturer's assumptions are correct, it would need to replace 8.23% of its batteries free of charge.
Option a) 8.23% is the correct option
2)
the required standard deviation is 3.8
Option a) 3.8 is the correct answer
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
mean μ = 44
standard deviation σ = 3.6
if a battery fails within 39 months of purchase, the manufacturer replaces the battery at no charge to the consumer. If the battery fails after 39 months but within 50 months
1)
If the manufacturer's assumptions are correct, it would need to replace_____ of its batteries free of charge
p( X < 39 ) = P( X-μ/σ < 39-μ/σ )
we substitute
= p( Z < ((39-44)/3.6 ))
= p( Z < -1.39 )
from standard normal table; p( Z < -1.39 ) = 0.08226 ≈ 0.0823
p( X < 39 ) = 0.0823 or 8.23%
Therefore, If the manufacturer's assumptions are correct, it would need to replace 8.23% of its batteries free of charge.
Option a) 8.23% is the correct option
2)
The company finds that it s replacing 9.34% of its batteries free of charge. It suspects that its assumption about the standard deviation of the life of its batteries is incorrect. A standard deviation of ______ results in a 9.34% replacement rate.
given that;
P( Z < x-μ/σ ) = 9.34%
⇒ P( Z < 39-44/σ ) = 0.0934 ----- let this be equation 1
now, from standard normal tables
∅( -1.32 ) = 0.0934 ---------- let this equation 2
so from equation 1 and 2
39-44/σ = -132
-5/σ = -1.32
σ = -5 / - 1.32
σ = 3.7879 ≈ 3.8
Therefore, the required standard deviation is 3.8
Option a) 3.8 is the correct answer
Supler Corporation produces a part used in the manufacture of one of its products. The unit product cost is $22, computed as follows: Direct materials $ 9 Direct labor 7 Variable manufacturing overhead 1 Fixed manufacturing overhead 5 Unit product cost $ 22 An outside supplier has offered to provide the annual requirement of 7200 of the parts for only $19 each. The company estimates that 80% of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost above could be eliminated if the parts are purchased from the outside supplier. Assume that direct labor is an avoidable cost in this decision. Based on these data, the financial advantage (disadvantage) of purchasing the parts from the outside supplier would be:
Answer:
$ 2 per unit on average
Explanation:
Calculation for what the financial advantage (disadvantage) of purchasing the parts from the outside supplier would be:
First step is to calculate the Relevant cost of making
Relevant cost of making = 9 + 7 + 1 + ( 5 * 80 % ) Relevant cost of making= $ 21
Now let calculate the Financial advantage of buying
Financial advantage of buying = ( 21 - 19 )
Financial advantage of buying= $ 2 per unit on average
Therefore the financial advantage (disadvantage) of purchasing the parts from the outside supplier would be:$ 2 per unit on average
Two years ago, Kimberly became a 30 percent partner in the KST Partnership with a contribution of investment land with a $12,750 basis and a $19,850 fair market value. On January 2 of this year, Kimberly has a $18,300 basis in her partnership interest, and none of her pre-contribution gain has been recognized. On January 2 Kimberly receives an operating distribution of a tract of land (not the contributed land) with a $15,575 basis and an $22,675 fair market value.
a. What is the amount and character of Kimberly's recognized gain or loss on the distribution?
b. What is Kimberly’s remaining basis in KST after the distribution?
c. What is KST's basis in the land Kimberly contributed after Kimberly recevies the distribution?
Answer:
a. What is the amount and character of Kimberly's recognized gain or loss on the distribution?
Kimberly's capital gain = land's FMV - other land's FMV = $22,675 - $19,850 = $2,825
b. What is Kimberly’s remaining basis in KST after the distribution?
Kimberly's basis = basis + gain - land basis = $18,300 + $2,825 - $15,575 = $5,550
c. What is KST's basis in the land Kimberly contributed after Kimberly receives the distribution?
KST's basis on the land = land's basis + Kimberly's gain = $12,750 + $2,825 = $15,575
A company incurs factory overhead costs of $1,200 and applied $1,500. If the difference is considered immaterial, then the:_______
a) adjusting entry will require a debit to Cost of Goods Sold.
b) adjusting entry will require a credit to Cost of Goods Sold.
c) Factory Overhead account has a credit balance of $300 before adjusting.
d) Factory Overhead account has a debit balance of $300 before adjusting.
Answer:
b) adjusting entry will require a credit to Cost of Goods Sold.
c) Factory Overhead account has a credit balance of $300 before adjusting.
Explanation:
Given that
Actual Overhead = $1200 i.e. debited to the factory overhead account
And,
Applied overhead = $1500 i.e. Credited to the factory overhead account
So, the Factory overhead account has a credit balance of $300 prior adjusting
Also the applied overhead is higher than the actual one so the adjusting entry would needed to credit to the cost of goods sold
A sole proprietor in the 37% tax bracket pays her 16-year-old son a reasonable salary of $14,000 for services performed for the proprietorship. Compute the family's income tax savings if the son has no other income and takes a $12,400 standard deduction.
Answer: $5020
Explanation:
The family's income tax savings if the son has no other income and takes a $12,400 standard deduction will be calculated as:
Explanation:
Tax savings from deduction = ($14,000 × 37%) = $5180
Less: Tax on child's taxable income = 10% × ($14,000 - $12,400) = 10% × $1600 = $160
Family's income tax savings = $5180 - $160 = $5020

B. The cost of an asset and its fair value are never the same.
C. The historical cost principle requires that when assets are acquired, they should be recorded at market price.
D. Stockholders' equity can be described as ownership claim on total assets.
E. The historical cost principle requires that when assets are acquired, they should be recorded at appraisal value.
Answer:
d
Explanation:
A stockholder is an investor that purchases shares in a company. A stockholder is regarded as the owner of the company.
According to accounting information :
Stockholders' equity = total assets - Total liabilities.
Stockholders' equity is the claim a shareholder has on a company's assets after total liabilities have been subtracted
The historical cost principle requires assets to be recorded at its historical cost regardless of changes in the value of the asset
A bank currently has $150 million in "hot money" deposits against which it wants to hold an 80 percent reserve and $90 million in vulnerable deposits against which it wants to hold a 30 percent reserve. It also has $45 million in stable deposits against which it wants to hold a 5 percent reserve. Legal reserves for the bank are 5 percent of all deposits. What is the bank's liability liquidity reserve?
Answer:
The right response is "141.7875".
Explanation:
According to the question,
The total reserves held will be:
= [tex]0.8\times 150+0.3\times 90+0.05\times 45[/tex]
= [tex]120+27+2.25[/tex]
= [tex]149.25[/tex]
Deductions will be:
= [tex]5 \ percent \ of \ 149.25[/tex]
= [tex]0.05\times 149.25[/tex]
= [tex]7.4625[/tex]
now,
The bank's liability liquidity reserve will be:
= [tex]Total \ reserves \ held-Deductions[/tex]
= [tex]149.25-7.4625[/tex]
= [tex]141.7875[/tex]
Jasper Company has a payback goal of three years on acquisitions of new equipment. A new piece of equipment that costs $450,000 and that has a five-year life is being considered. Straight-line (SL) depreciation will be used, with zero salvage value. Jasper is subject to a 40% combined income tax rate, t. To meet the company's payback goal, the equipment must generate reductions in annual cash operating costs of at least:
Answer: $190,000
Explanation:
The required annual return should pay back the $450,000 in 3 years so that amount will be:
= 450,000 / 3
= $150,000
Depreciation will be:
= 450,000 / 5 years useful life
= $90,000
Assume the reductions that should be generated is r:
Required return = r - (r - depreciation) * tax rate
150,000 = r - (r - 90,000) * 40%
150,000 = r - 0.4r + 36,000
0.6r = 150,000 -36,000
r = 114,000 / 0.6
= $190,000
Donna Pierce manages a business that distributes imported woolen fabrics. Donna's business offers a 2.5% cash discount on any amount paid within 10 days of the invoice date. On January 28, a client purchased fabrics priced at $14,500, and on February 1 the client sent in a $10,000 check. Compute the unpaid balance. (This problem involves the partial payment of an invoice within the discount period.)
Answer:
Donna Pierce
The unpaid balance is:
= $4,243.60.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cash discount on any amount paid within 10 days of the invoice = 2.5%
Sales value of Fabrics bought on January 28 by a client = $14,500
Check made by the client on February 1 = $10,000
Total amount paid through the check = $10,000/100-2.5%
= $10,000/0.975 = $10,256.40
Amount unpaid = $4,243.60 ($14,500 - $10,256.40)
Check:
2.5% discount on $10,256.40 = $256.40 ($10,256.40 * 2.5%)

During 2012, Charles Inc. recorded credit sales of $2,000,000. Based on prior experience, it estimates a 1 percent bad debt rate on credit sales. At the beginning of the year, the balance in net accounts receivable was $150,000. At the end of the year, but before the bad debt expense adjustment was recorded and before any bad debts had been written off, the balance in net accounts receivable was $125,000. Assume that on December 31, 2012, the appropriate bad debt expense adjustment was recorded for the year 2012 and accounts receivable totaling $10,000 were written off for the year, what was the receivables turnover ratio for the year? Please round to one decimal place
Answer:
Charles Inc.
The receivables turnover ratio for the year is:
= 14.5
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Credit Sales for 2012 = $2,000,000
Allowance for bad debt = 1% on credit sales ($20,000)
Beginning net accounts receivable = $150,000
Ending net accounts receivable = $125,000
Average receivable = ($150,000 + $125,000)/2 = $275,000/2 = $137,500
Receivables turnover ratio = Sales/Average receivable
= $2,000,000/$137,500
= 14.5
b) Charles Inc.'s Receivables Turnover Ratio shows how efficiently the company is able to manage its credit sales through effective and efficient collection of trade debts from customers. It is computed by dividing the credit sales by the average receivable.

Isaac Inc. began operations in January 2021. For some property sales, Isaac recognizes income in the period of sale for financial reporting purposes. However, for income tax purposes, Isaac recognizes income when it collects cash from the buyer's installment payments. In 2021, Isaac had $621 million in sales of this type. Scheduled collections for these sales are as follows:
2021 $61 million
2022 121 million
2023 131 million
2024 152 million
2025 156 million
$621 million
Assume that Isaac has a 25% income tax rate and that there were no other differences in income for financial statement and tax purposes. Ignoring operating expenses and additional sales in 2022, what deferred tax liability would Isaac report in its year-end 2022 balance sheet?
a. $128 million.
b. $59 million.
c. $104 milion.
d. $8 million.
Answer:
$109,750,000
Explanation:
Note: Options provided in the question belong to similar question but different numbers
Deferred Tax liability = (Revenue from specific sales in 2021 - Cash received against it up to 2022) * Tax rate
Deferred Tax liability = ($621 million - $61 million - $121 million) * 25%
Deferred Tax liability = $439 million * 25%
Deferred Tax liability = $109,750,000

The owner of Genuine Subs, Inc., hopes to expand the present operation by adding one new outlet. She has studied three locations. Each would have the same labor and materials costs (food, serving containers, napkins, etc.) of $1.70 per sandwich. Sandwiches sell for $2.50 each in all locations. Rent and equipment costs would be $5,300 per month for location A, $5,650 per month for location B, and $5,900 per month for location C.
A. Determine the volume necessary at each location to realize a monthly profit of $9,500.
B. If expected sales at A, B, and C are 20,500 per month, 22,500 per month, and 23,500 per month, respectively, calculate the profit of the each locations.
Answer:
To find the volume necessary to make a certain profit, use the formula:
= (Fixed costs + Profit) / Contribution margin
Contribution margin = Selling price - variable cost
= 2.50 - 1.7
= $0.80
Location A Location B
= (5,300 + 9,500) / 0.80 = (5,650 + 9,500) / 0.80
= 18,500 sandwiches = 18,938 sandwiches
Location C
= (5,900 + 9,500) / 0.80
= 19,250 sandwiches
B. Profit at A:
= Contribution margin * sales - fixed costs
= 0.8 * 20,500 - 5,300
= $11,100
Profit at B:
= 0.8 * 22,500 - 5,650
= $12,350
Profit at C:
= 0.8 * 23,500 - 5,900
= $12,900

Beginning work in process inventory:
Cost $ 19,000
Units 30,000 units
Percent completion with respect to materials 100 %
Percent completion with respect to conversion 60 %
Units completed and transferred out 82,000 units
Cost per equivalent unit:
Material $ 1.50
Material $ 0.75
The cost of units transferred out was:________.
a. $184,500
b. $149,500
c. $167,500
d. $145,000
Answer:
a. $184,500
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of units transferred out is shown below:
Total unit cost is
= $1.50 + $0.75
= $2.25 per unit
And, Unit completed and transferred out = 82000
So, Cost of unit completed and transferred out is
= 82,000 units × $2.25
= $184,500
hence, the correct option is a.

Challenger Factory produces two similar products: regular widgets and deluxe widgets. The total factory overhead budget is $589,600 with 376,800 estimated direct labor hours. Deluxe widget production requires 4 direct labor hours for each unit, and regular widget production requires 4 direct labor hours for each unit. Using a single plantwide factory overhead rate with an allocation base of direct labor hours, the factory overhead that Challenger Factory will allocate to regular widget production if budgeted production of regular widgets for the period is 75,000 units and actual production of regular widgets for the period is 127,500 units would be
Answer:
Challenger Factory
The total factory overhead that Challenger Factory will allocate to regular widget production if budgeted production is 75,000 units and actual production for the period is 127,500 units would be:
= $795,600.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Total budgeted factory overhead = $589,600
Total estimated direct labor hours = 376,800
Overhead rate = $589,600/376,800 = $1.56
Direct labor hours per unit of widget = 4 hours
Budgeted production of regular widgets for the period = 75,000 units
Total direct labor hours for the period = 75,000 * 4 = 300,000 hours
Actual production of regular widgets for the period = 127,500
Total direct labor hours for regular widgets = 510,000 (127,500 *4)
Total factory overhead that Challenger Factory will allocate to regular widget production if budgeted production is 75,000 units and actual production for the period is 127,500 units would be:
= 510,000 * $1.56 = $795,600
Assume that the fair values of the investee's net assets approximated the recorded book values of the investee's net assets, except the fair value of the investee's identifiable noncurrent assets is $30,000 higher than book value. In addition, the investee's pre-transaction tax bases in its individual net assets approximate their reported book values. This difference relates entirely to tax-deductible items. Assume the marginal tax rate is 40% for the investor and investee. What amount of goodwill should be reported in the investor's consolidated balance sheet prepared immediately after this business combination
Answer:
$57,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount of goodwill should be reported
Total assets $270,000
Less Liabilities ($120,000)
Book value $150,000
($270,00-$120,000)
Acquistion price $225,000
Less Book value ($150,000)
excess price over book value 75,000
($225,000-$150,000)
Allocated to non current assets $18,000
(30000*(1-.4))
Goodwill (75000-18000) $57,000
Therefore the amount of goodwill should be reported is $57,000
Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $36,000. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, the van will be worth $6,400. During the four-year period, the company expects to drive the van 148,000 miles. Actual miles driven each year were 40,000 miles in year 1 and 46,000 miles in year 2. Required: Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years of the van using each of the following methods. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Year 1 = $8000
Year 2 = $9200
Explanation:
($36000 - $6400) ÷ 148000 = $0.2 /miles
Year 1,
40000 × $0.2 = $8000
Year 2,
46000 × $0.2 = $9200
but I don't know these were pure logic, no formula whatsoever... feel free to delete them if its wrong..
Nolan Company acquired a tract of land containing a natural resource. Nolan is required by the purchase contract to restore the land after extraction. Geological surveys show that the estimated amount to be extracted will be 5,000,000 tons, and that the land will have a value of $1,000,000 after restoration. Relevant costs:Land $7,000,000Estimated restorationcosts: 1,500,000What should be the charge to depletion expense per ton of extracted material?
Answer:
1.50
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what should be the charge to depletion expense per ton of extracted material
Land cost $7,000,000
Add: Estimated restoration costs $1,500,000
Less: Value of Land after restoration (-$1,000,000)
Cost for Depletion $7,500,000
($7,000,000+$1,500,000-$1,000,000)
÷Divide by Total tons 5,000,000 tons
Depletion expense per ton 1.50
(7,500,000÷5,000,000 tons)
Therefore what should be the charge to depletion expense per ton of extracted material is 1.50
