Answer:
the payback period is 5 years
Explanation:
The computation of the payback period is shown below;
Payback period = initial investment ÷ annual cash flows
= $1,000,000 ÷ $200,000
= 5 years
hence, the payback period is 5 years
We ignored the required rate of return as it is considered in the discounted payback period
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come
And, the same is to be considered
Answer:5 years

Beacon Industries,Inc. thinking about having one of its products manufactured by a subcontractor.Currently , the cost of manufacturing 1,000 units follows :
Direct material $45,000
Direct labor 30,000
Factory overhead (30 % is variable ) 98,000

Answer:
It is cheaper to buy the product.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production:
Direct material $45,000
Direct labor 30,000
Factory overhead (30 % is variable ) 98,000
Buy:
Total cost= $100,000
I will assume that none of the fixed overhead avoidable. Therefore, we will take into account only the variable overhead.
Total variable production cost= 45,000 + 30,000 + (98,000*0.3)
Total variable production cost= $104,400
It is cheaper to buy the product.

Accounts Receivable account has a beginning balance of $52,000 and an ending balance of $69,000. If $47,000 was sold on account during the year, what were the total collections on account
Answer:
$30,000
Explanation:
Total collections on account is computed as;
= Accounts receivable at the beginning + Sales during the year - Accounts receivable at the end
Given that;
Accounts receivable at the beginning = $52,000
Sales during the year = $47,000
Accounts receivable at the end = $69,000
Therefore,
Total collections on account
= [($52,000 + $47,000) - $69,000]
= $30,000
The Dennis Company reported net income of $50,000 on sales of $300,000. The company has average total assets of $500,000 and average total liabilities of $100,000. What is the company's return on equity ratio?

where,
equity is
= Total assets - total liabilities
= $500,000 - $100,000
= $400,000
Now the return on equity is
= $50,000 ÷ $400,000
= 12.50%
Hence, the return on equity is 12.50%
Therefore the corredct option is c.

Jessica retired at age 65. On the date of her retirement, the balance in her traditional IRA was $218,000. Over the years, Jessica had made $21,800 of nondeductible contributions and $69,000 of deductible contributions to the account. If Jessica receives a $68,000 distribution from the IRA on the date of retirement, what amount of the distribution is taxable?
and its not 51000
Answer:
The amount of the distribution that is taxable is $61,200.
Explanation:
The following are given in the question:
Balance in IRA = $218,000
Nondeductible contributions = $21,800
Amount of distribution received = $68,000
Therefore, we have:
Nondeductible portion = Nondeductible contributions / Balance in IRA = $21,800 / $218,000 = 0.10
Taxable portion = 1 - Nondeductible portion = 1 - 0.10 = 0.90
Taxable amount = Taxable portion * Amount of distribution received = 0.90 * $68,000 = $61,200
Therefore, the amount of the distribution that is taxable is $61,200.

On December 31, Strike Company traded in one of its batting cages for another one that has a cost of $500,000. Strike receives a trade-in allowance of $11,000. The old equipment had an initial cost of $215,000 and has accumulated depreciation of $185,000. Depreciation has been recorded up to the end of the year. The difference will be paid in cash. What is the amount of the gain or loss on this transaction
Answer:
the amount of loss is $19,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of the gain or loss is shown below:
Old equipment cost is
= Initial cost of the equipment - accumulated depreciation
= $215,000 - $185,000
= $30,000
Now the gain or loss is
= Book value of an equipment - trade in allowance
= $30,000 - $11,000
= $19,000
hence, the amount of loss is $19,000
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

Some individuals argue that accountants should focus on producing financial statements and leave the design and production of managerial reports to information systems specialists. What are the advantages and disadvantages of following this advice? To what extent should accountants be involved in producing reports that include more than just financial measures of performance? Why?
Answer:
If this advice was followed, two systems would result which means higher costs. Accountants must be aware of what is happening in the organization in order to perform correctly. This doesn't mean that only accountants should be involved, but you cannot exclude them.
Accountants are trained in systems development and they should be able to produce reliable information. In order for information to be useful, it must be reliable and relevant. If accountants do not participate in the development of a company's system, then the quality of the information will decrease. Non-reliable information is not useful.
How much money did he save by paying
You want to have $500,000 in today's (real) dollars when you retire in 40 years. The expected inflation rate is 1.1% and the nominal return on your investments is 6.5%. How much money do you have to save now if you can't make any additional deposits?
Answer:
Initial deposit= $62,378.07
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the nominal value of $500,000 in 40 years:
Future Value= PV*(1+r)^n
r= inflation rate
FV= 500,000*(1.011^40)
FV= $774,490.74
Now, the initial deposit (PV) to be made in the present:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
i= interest rate
PV= 774,490.74 / (1.065^40)
PV= $62,378.07
A portfolio has 225 shares of Stock C that sells for $42 and 190 shares of Stock D that sells for $33. What is Stock C's weight?
Answer:

Explanation:
Weight of stock C = Value of stock C / total value of portfolio
225 x $42 / (225 x $42) + (190 x $33) = $9450 /15720 = 60.11%
A firm has a tax burden of 0.6, a leverage ratio of 1.2, an interest burden of 0.7, and a return-on-sales ratio of 14%. The firm generates $2.64 in sales per dollar of assets. What is the firm's ROE
Answer:
18.63%
Explanation:
Calculation for the firm's ROE
Using this formula for
ROE=(Tax burden)(Leverage ratio)(Interest burden)(Return-on-sales ratio)(Sales per dollar of assets)
Let plug in the formula
ROE = (.6)(1.2)(.7)(.14)(2.64)
ROE=18.63%
Therefore the firm's ROE is 18.63%

12.Sunnydale Organics, Inc. harvests crops in roughly 90-day cycles based on a 360-day year. The firm receives payment from its harvests sometime after shipment. Due in part to the firm's rapid growth, it has been borrowing to finance its harvests using 90-day bank notes on which the firm pays 12 percent discount interest. If the firm requires $60,000 in proceeds from each note, what must be the face value of each note
Answer: $61857
Explanation:
Let the face value of each note be represented by y.
We should also note that we are given a time period of 90 days = 3 months.
Discount interest = 12%. This will be 3% for every 3 months.
Face value of each nite will then be:
y = 60000/(100%-3%)
y = 60000 / 97%
y = 60000/0.97
y = 61,856.67
What is the maximum hourly output from a process with four steps having outputs of 20 units/hour, 25 units/hour, 30 units/hour and 15 units/hour?
Answer:
The maximum hourly output from the process with four steps is:
22.5 units/hour.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Outputs:
20 units/hour,
25 units/hour,
30 units/hour and
15 units/hour
Total units 90
Total hours = 4
Maximum hourly output = Total output units divided by the total hours
= 90/4
= 22.5 units per hour.
b) This implies that the process can produce 22.5 units per hour at its maximum performance. This is also the average output from the four processing steps.
