Answer:
a. Complex Systems' bond price today = $1,476.36
Explanation:
a. If bonds of similar risk are currently earning a rate of return of 9%, how much should the Complex Systems bond sell for today?
This can be calculated by adding the Present Value of Coupons and the Present Value of Par Value as follows:
Calculation of Present Value of Coupons
The present of coupons is calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
Present value of coupons = C × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + r)]^n} ÷ r] …………………………………. (1)
Where;
C = Annual coupon amount = Par value * Coupon rate = $1,000 * 16% = $160
r = required rate of return or return of similar risk = 9%, or 0.09
n = number of years = 11
Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:
Present value of coupons = $160 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.09)]^11} ÷ 0.09] = $1,088.83
Calculation of Present Par of Value
To calculate this, we use the present value formula as follows:
Present Value of Par Value = Par value / (1 + r)^n
Since Par Value is $1000 and r and n are as already given above, we have:
Present value of Par Value = $1,000 / (1 + 0.09)^11 = $387.53
Therefore, we have:
Complex Systems' bond price today = Present value of coupons + Present value of Par Value = $1,088.83 + $387.53 = $1,476.36
b. Describe the two possible reasons why the rate on similar-risk bonds is below the coupon interest rate on the Complex Systems bond.
The following are the possible two reasons:
1. Interest may vary bust the coupon is fixed. What can cause the interest rate to vary is the bond rating by rating agency. But his will not affect the coupon rate which is fixed. When the rating is high, the interest will be low. But when the rating is low, the interest will be high. This indicates a negative relationship between the rating and the interest rate.
2. The level of demand may also influence the interest rate to change. When the demand is high, the interest will be low. But when the demand is low, the interest will be high. This also indicates a negative relationship between the demand and the interest rate.
c. If the required return were at 16% instead of 9%, what would the current value of Complex Systems' bond be? Contrast this finding with your findings in part a and discuss.
To do this, we simply change he required return to 16% (or 0.16) in part a and proceed as follows:
Present value of coupons at 16% = $160 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.16)]^11} ÷ 0.016] = $804.58
Present value of Par Value at 16% = $1,000 / (1 + 0.16)^11 = $195.42
Complex Systems' bond price today at 16% = $804.58 + $195.42 = $1,000.00
Comparing part c result with part a result shows that if the coupon rate is greater than the required rate of return, the bond is sold at a premium. That is, price of bond will be more than par. As it can be seen in part a, the price of bond is $1,476.36 when the coupon rate of 16% is greater than the required return of 9%.
Also, the bond will be sold at par when the coupon rate and require return are equal. This is shown in part c where the bond is sold at $1,000 when both coupon rate and required return rate are equal to 16%.
By implication, we can also infer without doing any calculation that the bond will be sold at a discount if the coupon rate is less than the required rate of return.
McCoy Brothers manufactures and sells two products, A and Z in the ratio of 5:2. Product A sells for $75; Z sells for $95. Variable costs for product A are $35; for Z $40. Fixed costs are $418,500. Compute the contribution margin per composite unit
Answer:
Weighted average contribution margin= $44.29
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales proportion:
Product A= 5/7= 0.714
Product Z= 2/7= 0.286
Product A sells for $75; Z sells for $95.
Variable costs for product A are $35; for Z $40.
To determine the contribution margin per composite unit, we need to use the following formula:
Weighted average contribution margin= (weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary variable cost)
Weighted average contribution margin= (0.714*75 + 0.286*95) - (0.714*35 + 0.286*40)
Weighted average contribution margin= 80.72 - 36.43
Weighted average contribution margin= $44.29
Which of the following is not descriptive of external environmental scanning? used as a tool for corporations to avoid strategic surprise used to monitor, evaluate, and disseminate information relevant to the organizational development of strategy used to identify major stockholders used to determine a firm's competitive advantage used as a tool to ensure a corporation's long-term health
Answer:
used to identify major stockholders
Explanation:
Environmental scanning is a management strategy that focuses on systematically acquiring informations about occasions, trends, events or patterns through surveys and analysis of these information in an organisation's external and internal environment. The informations acquired through environmental scanning is then used by the executive management in strategically planning the organisation's future and exploitation of available opportunities for the success of the organization.
The internal environmental scanning offers an organization strength and weakness while the external environmental scanning provides information about opportunities and threats.
Generally, the external environmental scanning gives an overview of the opportunities in the market as well as potential threats to an organization.
Hence, the following are descriptive of an external environmental scanning;
1. Used as a tool for corporations to avoid strategic surprise.
2. Used to monitor, evaluate, and disseminate information relevant to the organizational development of strategy.
3. Used to determine a firm's competitive advantage.
4. Used as a tool to ensure a corporation's long-term health.
Deborah Lewis, general manager of the Northwest Division of Berkshire Co., has significant authority over pricing decisions as well as programs that involve cost reduction/control. The data that follow relate to upcoming divisional operations:
Average invested capital: $15,000,000
Annual total fixed costs: $3,900,000
Variable cost per unit: $80
Number of units expected to be sold: 120,000
Assume the unit selling price is $132 and that Berkshire has a 16% imputed interest charge.
Top management will promote Deborah to corporate headquarters if her division can generate $200,000 of residual income (RI). If Deborah desires to move to corporate, what adjustment must the division do to the amount of annual total fixed costs?
Answer:
The revised fixed costs = $3,640,000
Explanation:
Calculation of Residual Income:
Residual Income = Net income - (Invested capital * Minimum required rate of return)
Net Income = Sales - Variable costs - Fixed costs
Net Income = (120,000*132) - (120,000*80) - 3,900,000
Net Income = $2,340,000
Invested capital = $15,000,000
Minimum required rate of return = 16%
Therefore, residual income = $2,340,000 - ($15,000,000 * 16%)
= -$60,000
Hence, adjustment to be made to the amount of fixed costs so that residual income becomes $200,000 = $200,000+$60,000 = $260,000
Therefore, revised fixed costs = $3,900,000 - $260,000 = $3,640,000
In 2010, the BowWow Company purchased 11,752 units from its supplier at a cost of $ 11.73 per unit. BowWow sold 18,971 units of its product in 2010 at a price of $ 24.86 per unit. BowWow began 2010 with $ 864,593 in inventory (inventory is carried at a cost of $ 11.73 per unit). Using this information, compute BowWow's 2010 ending inventory balance (in dollars).
Answer:
Ending inventory balance is $ 779,914.13
Explanation:
The cost of goods sold formula can be used to determine the ending inventory by rearranging the formula and making the ending inventory the subject of the formula:
cost of goods=beginning inventory+inventory purchased-ending inventory
ending inventory=beginning inventory+inventory purchased-costs of goods sold
ending inventory=$864,593+(11,752*$11.73)-(18971*$11.73)=$ 779,914.13

Demand for dishwasher water pumps is 8 per day. The standard deviation of demand is 3 per day, and the order lead time is four days. The service level is 95%. What should the reorder point be?
Answer:
41.9 units
Explanation:
Reorder point can be defined as the level of inventory which help to triggers an action to replace that particular inventory stock in such a way that when the stock level reduced the item must be reordered because it is the minimum unit quantity that a business owner or an organisation should always have in available inventory before they need to reorder more product.
Using this formula
Reorder point= Demand during the lead time + Z for customer service level * standard deviation * Square root of lead time multiplier.
Where,
Demand during the lead time =(8*4)
Z for customer service level =1.65
Standard deviation =3
Square root of lead time multiplier=4
Let plug in the formula
Reorder point=(8*4) + 1.65*3* square root of(4)
= 41.9 units.
Therefore the Reorder point is 41.9 units
If the unit price of inventory is increasing during a period, a company using the LIFO inventory method will show less gross profit for the period, than if it had used the FIFO inventory method.

b. False
A) I think the answer should be True
Assume the profit margin is projected to increase to 9 percent while the dividend payout ratio remains constant. If sales increase by 12 percent, what is the projected total retained earnings (hint: add the additional RE onto the current RE)? Currently, the firm’s sales =$4,700, net income is $420, total assets=7890, dividends=125, A/P =790, LTD= 3130, and common stock=2780, and retained earnings =1190.
Answer:
The projected retained earnings are $1538.76
Explanation:
Profit margin=net income/sales
profit margin is 9%
sales growth rate is 12%
9%=net income/($4,700*(1+12%))
9%=net income/5264
9%*5264=net income
net income=$473.76
Projected total retained earnings=$1190+$473.76-$125=$1538.76
Faucet Company reported the following information for 2008: October November December Budgeted sales $620,000 $580,000 $720,000 All sales are on credit. Customer amounts on account are collected 50% in the month of sale and 50% in the following month. How much cash will Faucet receive in November
Answer:
Cash receipt for the month of November is $600000
Explanation:
The receipt of the cash will be such that the sales made in a particular month will be calculated half in the month of sale and half in the next month. Thus, the cash receipt from the accounts receivables for the month of November will be,
Cash received from the October sales = 620000 * 0.5 = $310000
Cash received from the November sales = 580000 * 0.5 = $290000
Total cash receipt in the month of November will be,
Cash receipt - November = 310000 + 290000
Cash receipt - November = $600000

Explanation:
Steven has a typed copy of a contract, which he would like to have Thomas sign. Thomas, who needs glasses to read typing, doesn't want to sign until he has read the document, but Steven convinces Thomas to sign it anyway, because it is a "standard" contract for this type of situation. Is the contract which Thomas signed binding upon him?
Answer:
Yes, because he was negligent in not ascertaining its contents
Explanation:
Based on the information provided regarding the scenario at hand it can be said that Yes, this contract is binding upon Thomas because he was negligent in not ascertaining its contents. Each individual is responsible for completely reading and fully understanding the contents of the contract before they sign. Once an individual signs the contract it means that they fully agree with all that is specified in the contract and are held liable. Thomas should have waited until he had his glasses and read the contract before signing, regardless of what Steven had to say.
Platen purchased inventory on August 17 and received an invoice with a list price amount of $5,900 and payment terms of 4/10, n/30. Platen uses the net method to record purchases. For what amount should Platen record the purchase
Answer:
$5,664
Explanation:
Calculation of the amount that Platen should record the purchase.
Using this formula
List price -(Percentage of payment term × list price)
Let plug in the formula
$5,900 -(4%×5,900 )
=$5,900-$236
=$5,664
Therefore Platen should record the purchase on August 17 as a:
Debit to Purchases (periodic system) and a Credit to Accounts Payable for $5,664
Therefore the amount that Platen should record the purchase will be $5,664
If the government began providing free textbooks to college students who would otherwise have bought their books from the private sector, the government's action would result in:_______
A) a Ricardian dilemma.
B) a direct expenditure offset.
C) an increase in real Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
D) a reduction of the government deficit.
Answer:
Option (B) is the correct answer to this question.
Explanation:
As the government spends more money, businesses within the private sector typically spend less.
Specific budget offsets refer to the private-sector expenditures through which compensation was generated as a result of expansionary budgetary policy decisions becoming implemented. The private sector activities in investment profits that counter government spending behavior by the state. Some income from federal spending in an environment competing with corporate companies must be offset by any government expenditure.
Other options are incorrect because they are not related to the given scenario.
A company received a bank statement showing a balance of $78,000. Reconciling items included outstanding checks of $2,400 and a deposit in transit of $9,400. What is the company's adjusted bank balance
Answer:
Adjusted Bank Balance = $85,000
Explanation:
Adjustment of bank balance is a bank reconciliation procedure, that is used to match the amount in the bank statement with the amount in the company's balance sheet.
To adjust the bank balance, particulars that need to be subtracted or added to the bank statement balance has to be identified and treated accordingly.
For this example, the adjusted balance is calculated thus:
Adjusted bank balance = (Bank statement balance) - (outstanding checks) +(deposit in transit)
Adjusted Bank Balance = 78,000 - 2,400 + 9,400 = $85,000
Note:
outstanding checks are subtracted because they are payments to be made made by the company, representing a liability to the company (payer)
deposit in transit is an income to the company that has not been credited yet, but that will be credited.
If the marginal cost of producing the fifth unit of output is higher than the marginal cost of producing the fourth unit of output, then at five units of output, average total cost must be rising.
a. True
b. False
Answer: a. True
Explanation:
Marginal Cost as well known is the cost of producing an extra unit of a good. Average Cost on the other hand is the cost of producing all the goods divided by the number of units that are produced.
It therefore stands to reason that if goods are getting more expensive to produce, the Average Cost will rise.
For example, take 2 scenarios.
Scenario 1.
Cost of producing units 1 to 5 is $2 each.
Average Cost = (2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2) / 5
= 10/5
Average Cost = $2
Scenario 2
Cost of Producing Units 1 to 5 are;
Unit 1 - $2
Unit 2 - $2
Unit 3 - $2
Unit 4 - $2
Unit 5 - $4
Average cost at unit 5 = (2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 4)/5
= 12/5
= $2.40
Average Cost has increased by $0.40
CMS Corporation's balance sheet as of today is as follows: Long-term debt (bonds, at par) $10,000,000 Preferred stock 2,000,000 Common stock ($10 par) 10,000,000 Retained earnings 4,000,000 Total debt and equity $26,000,000 The bonds have a 4.0% coupon rate, payable semiannually, and a par value of $1,000. They mature exactly 10 years from today. The yield to maturity is 12%, so the bonds now sell below par. What is the current market value of the firm's debt
Answer:
$5,412,000
Explanation:
Given:
Long-term debt (bonds, at par):$10,000,000
Preferred stock :2,000,000
Common stock ($10 par): 10,000,000
Retained earnings: 4,000,000
Total debt and equity :$26,000,000
Coupon rate = 4%(semi annually)
Par value = $1000
YTM = 12%
Required:
Find the current market value of the firm's debt.
Find the bond price:
Bond price [tex] = (C * (\frac{1 - (\frac{1}{(1+i)^n})}{i}) + (\frac{m}{(1+i)^n}) [/tex]
[tex] = (C * (\frac{1 - (\frac{1}{(1+0.06)^2^0})}{0.06}) + (\frac{1000}{(1+0.06)^2^0}) [/tex]
[tex] = 541.20 [/tex]
Bond price = $541.20
Find number of bonds:
Number of bonds [tex] = \frac{10,000,000}{1,000} = 10,000[/tex]
Now, to find the current market value of the firm's debt, use:
Current market value of debt = number of bonds × bond price
= 10,000 × 541.20
= $5,412,000
Current market value of the firm's debt = $5,412,000
Liability policies, such as personal liability, professional malpractice, or business liability insurance, do NOT protect the insured against a. a personal injury on the insured's property, such as the mail carrier who slips and falls on the owner's sidewalk. b. intentional harm caused by the insured. c. someone injured by the insured away from home or business. d. claims for property damaged by the insured.
Answer:
b. intentional harm caused by the insured.
Explanation:
Liability insurance is a means to provide the insured party with some protection against claims resulting from injuries and damage to people or property, covering both legal costs and any payouts for which the insured party would be responsible if found legally liable.
Note that there are two types of liability coverage: bodily injury and property damage. Most states in the US require liability coverages, subject to limits, which is the maximum amount the insurer will pay when the incident occurs. For example, a car accident can be expensive. This is why there is a limit of compensation which an insurer can offer.
Depreciation associated with a project will: Answer A. cause incremental cash flows to increase B. only affect the fixed asset account as depreciation is a sunk cost C. have no effect on incremental cash flows D. cause incremental operating cash flows to decrease
Answer: A. cause incremental cash flows to increase
Explanation:
Incremental Cashflow (ICF) is the added cash that a company gets from embarking on a project which means that this Cashflow must be independent of expenses. If ICF is positive then the company will see it's Cashflow increase if they accept the project because it will contribute to their cash flow.
ICF is calculated from the Net Income of the project but seeing as Depreciation is a non-cash expense that is removed from the Income Statement. In calculating ICF it is added back as ICF deals with actual cash and Depreciation did not cost any actual cash.
More Depreciation therefore means an increase in Incremental Cash flow when it is being calculated from Net Income.
Emily is considering purchasing a new home for $400,000. She intends to put 20% down and finance $320,000, but is unsure which financing option to select. Emily is considering the following options: o Option 1: Fixed rate mortgage over 30 years at 8% interest, zero points, or o Option 2: Fixed rate mortgage over 30 years at 4% interest, plus two discount points. How long would her financial planner recommend that she live in the house to break even using Option 2 presuming she is not financing the points
Answer:
The break even for Emily using Option 2 presuming she is not financing the points is 7.8
Explanation:
Solution
In this case, in other to determine this problem, we need to find the monthly payments for both options
For option 1 (EMI)
Where
P = 320,000,
r =0.08/12 = 0.00667
n = 360
Now,
EMI = P *r * (1 + r)^n/ (1 + r)^n -1
So,
EMI =320,000 * 0.00667 * (1 + 0.00667)^360/ (1 + 0.00667)^360
EMI = 23329.56/9.93573
=2348.05
For Option 2
P = 320,000,
n = 360
r = 4%/12 = 0.003333
Thus,
EMI =320,000 * 0.003333 * (1 + 0.003333)^360/ (1 + 0.003333)^360
EMI = 3534.398/2.313498
=1527.73
Note:
When Emily is paying 2 discount point in the second option, she is paying the following:
2% * 320000 = 6400
Also she is saving the following:
2.348.05 - 1527.73
=820.32 on payment (monthly) because of the reduction of EMI in the second option
Thus,
The break even time is =payments due to points/ monthly savings
=6400/820.32
=7.8
Webster's Discount Appliances expects sales of $12,000, $15,000, and $25,000 during April, May, and June (big sale in June). To build business, Webster let's all customers buy on credit, and all do so. In the past, 20% of Webster's Discount Appliances sales have been collected during the month of sale, 65% are collected the following month, and 15% the month after that. If this trend continues, what will be Webster's total cash collections in the month of June
Answer:
$16,550
Explanation:
The computation of total cash collections in the month of June is shown below:-
Total cash collections in the month of June = (June sales × Percentage of collection) + (May sales × Percentage) + (April × Percentage)
= ($25,000 × 20%) + ($15,000 × 65%) + ($12,000 × 15%)
= $5,000 + $9,750 + $1,800
= $16,550
So, for computing the total cash collections in the month of June we simply applied the above formula.
We use 2,000 electric drills per year in our production process. The ordering cost for these is $100 per order and the Holding( carrying) cost is assumed to be 40% of the per unit cost. Each drill costs $78. What is the optimal quantity that would minimize the sum of Holding and Ordering costs.
Answer:
The Optimal Quantity to minimize Holding and Ordering Costs:
This is also known as the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ).
We can work it out using the EOQ formula.
The formula for EOQ is:
Q = √(2DS)/H
where:
Q=EOQ units
D=Demand in units (typically on an annual basis) = 2,000
S=Order cost (per purchase order) = $100
H=Holding costs (per unit, per year) = $31.20 ($78 x 40%)
Formula and Calculation of Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)
Q = √(2x2,000x $100)/$31.2
Q = √12,820.5 = 113.228 or 113 approximately.
Explanation:
EOQ is an important cash flow management tool. The formula assists a company to control the amount of cash tied up in inventory. For many companies, inventory is their largest asset. Companies hold enough inventory to meet customers' demand. Since EOQ minimizes the level of inventory, the cash savings can be used for some other business purposes or investments.
The goal of the EOQ formula is to identify the optimal number of product units to order. If achieved, a company can minimize its costs for buying, delivery, and storing units, including the costs from running out of inventory.
Review the "Types of Distribution Channels" study material. Explain why the selection of distribution channels is essential to a successful marketing strategy. Provide an example of a well-known company's distribution channels and defend their choices. In replies to peers, agree or disagree with their assessment and justify your response.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although the question does not provide a specific text, we can say that the selection of distribution channels is essential to a successful marketing strategy because that is how companies deliver their products to consumers. This is of key importance due to the fact that there are numerous competitors selling the same or similar products so the company has to be precise and effective in delivering the product to match the client's expectations.
One good example of a successful company would be Underarmour. This Maryland company sells its products through direct distribution, uses intermediaries and brokers, has open many outlets where the company sells direct to the consumer, and also sells products through e-commerce portals. You can find Underarmour apparel in big chain stores, fashion stores, the internet, and sports stores.
Rogers Inc. has provided the following data for the month of June. There were no beginning inventories; consequently, the direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead applied listed below are all for the current month.
Work in process Finished goods Cost of goods sold Total
Direct materials $2,380 16790 43930 $63,100
Direct labor 1710 16060 42020 $59,790
Manufacturing overhead applied 1520 9880 26600 $38,000
Total $5,610 $42,730 $112,550 $160,890
Manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by $1,000. The company allocates any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead among work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold at the end of the month on the basis of the overhead applied during the month in those accounts. The work in process inventory at the end of June after allocation of any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead for the month is closest to:
a. $5,570
b. $5,575
c. $5,645
d.$5,650
Answer:
d.$5,650
Explanation:

Under applied 40 260 700
Total $ 5650 42990 113250
We find the percentage of the manufacturing overhead applied and multiply it with the under applied amount. Then we add the underapplied amount to the total to get the actual amount.
Kansas Company acquired a building valued at $151,000 for property tax purposes in exchange for 12,000 shares of its $3 par common stock. The stock is widely traded and selling for $18 per share. At what amount should the building be recorded by Kansas Company
Answer:
The building would be recorded by Kansas Company for an amount of $216,000
Explanation:
In order to calculate the amount should the building be recorded by Kansas Company we would have to calculate the value of the building with the following formula:
value of the building= shares exchanged*Market value per share
shares exchanged=12,000 shares
Market value per share=$18
Therefore, value of the building=12,000*$18
value of the building=$216,000
The building would be recorded by Kansas Company for an amount of $216,000
In the long run, profits in a monopolistically competitive market are zero because: a. of government regulations. b. of collusion. c. firms are free to enter and exit the market. d. firms produce a differentiated product.
Answer:
c. firms are free to enter and exit the market.
Explanation:
A monopolistically competitive market is a market in which there are a lot of organizations that sell products that are similar and it tends to be easy to enter and leave the industry. Because it is easy for a company to enter the market and there is a lot of competition, in the long run the economic profit is zero. According to this, the answer is that in the long run, profits in a monopolistically competitive market are zero because firms are free to enter and exit the market.
The other options are not right because a monopolistically competitive market has zero profits because of its low entry barriers and amount of competitors not because of government regulations or an illegal agreement between organizations to control competition. Also, in a monopolistically competitive market the products are similar.

At the beginning of the period, the Cutting Department budgeted direct labor of $136,000, direct materials of $150,000 and fixed factory overhead of $11,900 for 8,000 hours of production. The department actually completed 10,600 hours of production. The appropriate total budget for the department, assuming it uses flexible budgeting, is Round your final answer to the nearest dollar. Do not round interim calculations.
Answer:
Total cost under flexible budgeting is $390,850
Explanation:
Calculation of Standard direct labor Cost
Standard Direct labor Cost=Budgeted Labor cost/Budgeted hour of Production
=$136,000 / 8,000
=$17 per hour
Calculation of Standard material Cost
Standard material Cost = Budgeted material Cost /Budgeted hour of Production
=$150,000 / 8,000
=$18.75 per hour
Calculation of Total cost under flexible budgeting
Direct Material Cost = 10,600 * $18.75 = $198,750
Direct Labour Cost= 10,600 * 17 = $180,200
Fixed factory overhead= $11,900
Total budgeted cost $390,850
Your parents are giving you $170 a month for 5 years while you are in college. At a 7 percent discount rate, what are these payments worth to you when you first start college
Answer:
PV= $8,586.15
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow= $170
Number of months= 5*12= 60
Discount rate= 0.07/12= 0.00583
First, we need to calculate the future value, using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {170*[(1.00583 ^60)-1]} / 0.00583
FV= $12,169.53
Now, the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 12,169.53/(1.00583^60)
PV= $8,586.15
For each of the following errors, considered individually, indicate whether the error would cause the adjusted trial balance totals to be unequal. If the error would cause the adjusted trial balance totals to be unequal, indicate whether the debit or credit total is higher and by how much.
a. The adjustment for accrued wages of $5,200 was journalized as a debit to Wages Expense for $5,200 and a credit to Accounts Payable for $5,200.
b. The entry for $1,125 of supplies used during the period was journalized as a debit to Supplies Expense of $1,125 and a credit to Supplies of $1,152.
Answer:
a) The debit and credit side of the unadjusted trial balance would be increased by $ 5200.
b) The debit side would remain unchanged. No effect will be seen in the adjusted trial balance.
Explanation:
Effect of adjustments on adjusted Trial Balance.
This first entry would increase the wages expense and increase the liability account in the adjusted trial balance. Both debit and credit side would be increased by an equal amount.
b) This would decrease the Supplies account and increase the supplies expense in the unadjusted account. As both are on the debit side there would be no effect in the debit total.
Sr No Account Debit Credit
Original Entries
a. Wages Expense 5200
Accounts Payable 5200
b. Supplies Expense 1125
Supplies Account 1125
Correct Entries
a. Wages Expense 5200
Accrued Wages Account Payable 5200
b. Supplies Expense 1125
Supplies Account 1125
Difference:
a) We see that the first entry which was original passed the debit side is correct but the credit side would have been of accrued wages instead of accounts payable . This is to raise the amount by which wages are still outstanding by an amount 5200 at the end of the month.
This would decrease the accounts payable increase the wages payable . If the adjustment is not made it the salaries payable is understated .
b)This adjusting entry is correct.
