The following units of an inventory item were available for sale during the year. Use this information to answer the following questions.
Beginning inventory 10 units at $55
First purchase 25 units at $60
Second purchase 30 units at $65
Third purchase 15 units at $70
The firm uses the periodic inventory system. During the year, 60 units of the item were sold.
The value of ending inventory using FIFO is:________
a. $1,350
b. $1,150
c. $1,375
d. $1,250
Answer:
The value of ending inventory using FIFO is $1,375
Explanation:
Under FIFO the items of inventory purchases earlier will be sold first and the items purchased later will be sold at last.
First, we need to calculate the total available inventory units
Numbers of units available to sale = Beginning Inventory + First purchase + Second purchase + Third purchase = 10 units + 25 units + 30 units + 15 units = 80 units
Now 60 units out of 80 are sold the remaining 20 units ( 80 units - 60 units ) will be in the ending inventory.
As per FIFO 20 units will be values as per the last 20 units purchases which will be as follow
Ending Invetory = ( 15 units x $70 ) + ( (20-15) units x $65 ) = $1,375

The company has provided the following estimated costs for the next year: Direct materials - $1000, Direct labor - $3000, Sales commissions - $4000, Salary of production supervisor - $2000, Indirect materials - $400, Advertising expense - $800, Rent on factory equipment - $1000. Reamer estimates that 500 direct labor hours and 1000 machine hours will be worked during the year. The predetermined overhead rate per hour will be:__________
A. $6.80
B. $6.00
C. $3.00
D. $3.40
Answer:
D. $3.40
Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:
Predetermined overhead rate is
= Estimated manufacturing overhead ÷ estimated machine hours
= ($2,000 + $400 + $1,000) ÷ (1,000 machine hours)
= $3,400 ÷ $1,000 machine hours
= $3.40 per hour
in one paragraph describe the general advantages and drawbacks of the premium pricing strategy.For exapmle, explain where it falls on the intersection of quality and price.
Please dont copy paste from the internet, will be flagged.
Answer:
The main advantage resulting from a premium pricing strategy is the higher profits. Another advantage is that customers that purchase premium products seek higher quality and tend to show higher brand loyalty associated with the status of using premium products. The disadvantages of premium pricing are that it cannot be applied to all products, the marketing efforts tend to be more specific, and therefore, represent a higher percentage of sales, and finally, not everyone is willing to pay premium prices.

If you deposit $5,000 4 years from today, how much can you withdraw 10 years from today if interest is 6 percent per year compounded annually?
Answer:
the future value is $7,093
Explanation:
The computation of the future value is shown below:
As we know that
Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years
= $5,000 × (1 + 0.06)^6
= $5,000 × 1.06^6
= $7,093
Hence, the future value is $7,093

Ken went shopping with only $160 on him. He wants to buy a new pair of sneakers and a pair of designer pants. Each item costs exactly $160, so he can only purchase one of the two. This scenario directly illustrates the basic concept that:________
1) most consumers are self-interested
2) society can produce more output when workers "specialize" in production
3) irrational people never respond to incentives
4) when resources are scarce, people face tradeoffs
Answer:
4) when resources are scarce, people face tradeoffs
Explanation:
All resources are scarce, but some are more scarce than others. For example, the day of the richest or poorest person in the world last exactly the same, 24 hours. You cannot buy more time per day. Even the richest person in the world has a limited amount of money, he/she cannot own all the money in the world. Some countries are rich in natural resources, but do not have capital. This leads to the concept of opportunity costs, which are the benefits lost or extra costs associated with choosing one alternative action or investment over another one. If Ken buys the new pair of sneakers, his opportunity cost is the pair of designer pants.

Sunland Company, has 14700 shares of 4%, $100 par value, cumulative preferred stock and 60200 shares of $1 par value common stock outstanding at December 31, 2021. There were no dividends declared in 2019. The board of directors declares and pays a $113000 dividend in 2020 and in 2021. What is the amount of dividends received by the common stockholders in 2021
Answer:
2021 Common Stockholders dividends = $49,600
Explanation:
Preference Shareholders are always paid their dividends first before Common Stockholders. If dividend is not declared, Preference dividends are cumulated to the next period and are due !
2019
Preferred Stockholders Dividends = 14700 x $100 x 4% = $58,800
Common Stockholders dividends = $ 0
2020
Preferred Stockholders Dividends = $58,800 (2019) + $54,200 (2020)
Common Stockholders dividends = $0
2021
Preferred Stockholders Dividends = $4,600 (2020 arrears) + $58,800 (2021) = $63,400
Common Stockholders dividends = $113,000 - $63,400 = $49,600
8. Agreement and disagreement among economists Suppose that Tim, an economist from a business school in Georgia, and Alyssa, an economist from a university in Massachusetts, are arguing over government bailouts. The following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate: Alyssa: Thanks to recent financial crises, the concept of bailouts is a hot topic for debate among everyone these days. Tim: Indeed, it's gotten crazy! A government bailout of severely distressed financial firms is unnecessary because free markets will properly price assets. Alyssa: I don't know about that. Without a bailout of severely distressed financial firms, the economy will experience a deep recession. The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to .
Answer:

On November 1, 2018, a company using accrual accounting, pays for a television advertising campaign. Commercials will run evenly over six months beginning on November 1, 2018. How much Advertising Expense will be reported on an income statement prepared for the year ended December 31, 2018?
Answer:
the advertising expense reported is $340,000
Explanation:
The computation of the advertising expense reported is as follows:
= Amount to be paid × number of months ÷ given months
= $1,020,000 × 2 months ÷ 6 months
= $340,000
Here the number of months would be 2 that is taken from Nov 1, 2018 to December 31,2018
Hence, the advertising expense reported is $340,000
Suppose that you are selling comic books door to door. You purchased all your comic books up front so your costs are currently all sunk. You are currently selling comic books for $3.50 apiece and you sell 25 comic books per day. You know that the elasticity of demand for comic books at your current price is -.6. Is your price too high or too low
Answer: The price can be said to be too low.
Explanation:
Since the elasticity of demand for comic books at the current price is -0.6, then we can say that the price is too low as the demand is inelastic.
An elasticity of demand that is less than one shows that a product has an inelastic demand. This simply means that the change in price would bring about a very little change to the quantity of the comic books that'll be bought.

At December 31, 2026, the following balances existed for MICPA Corporation: Bonds Payable (6%) $600,000 Discount on Bonds Payable 50,000 The bonds mature on 12/31/28. Straight-line amortization is used. If 60% of the bonds are retired at 103 on January 1, 2028, what is the gain or loss on early extinguishment
Answer:
$25,800
Explanation:
The bonds would mature at the end of the year 2028, which means in 2 years, as result, annual discount amortization is computed thus:
annual discount amortization=$50,000/2=$25,000
On January 1,2028, the balance in discount amortization is $25,000
Proceeds for 60% redemption=$600,000*60%*103%=$370,800
60% of bonds payable=$600,000*60%=$360,000
60% of unamortized discount=60%*$25,000=$15,000
In effecting the journal entries, bonds payable is debited with $360,000 while cash and discount on bonds payable are credited with $370,800 and $15,000 respectively.
Total credits=$370,800+$15,000=$385,800
total debit=$360,000
loss on early extinguishment is $25,800($385,800-$360,000)

On January 1, year 8, Derek Co.’s defined benefit pension plan had plan assets with a fair value of $750,000, and a projected benefit obligation of $875,000. In addition: Actual and expected return on plan assets – 7% Interest cost – 9% Service costs - $24,000 Unamortized prior service cost - $120,000 Employer contributions to the plan - $45,000 Distributions to employees from the plan - $60,000 Unamortized prior service cost is being amortized over the expected remaining service lives of covered employees, which consists of a total of 9 employees: 2 employees are each expected to have 9 years remaining 3 employees are each expected to have 6 years remaining 4 employees are each expected to have 1 year remaining How much amortization of prior service cost will be included in Derek Co.’s pension expense for year 8?
Answer: $27,000
Explanation:
Amortization of prior cost = (No. of employees / Total number of years left) * Unamortized prior service cost
Total number of years left:
2 employees are each expected to have 9 years remaining = 2 * 9
= 18 years
3 employees are each expected to have 6 years remaining = 3 * 6
= 18 years
4 employees are each expected to have 1 year remaining = 4 * 1
= 4 years
Total number of years = 18 + 18 + 4
= 40 years
Amortization of prior cost = (9 / 40) * 120,000
= $27,000

The difference between a property's current market value and any outstanding liens or mortgages is referred to as equity in a home. Through their recurring mortgage payments and any value growth of the home, homeowners gradually increase the equity in their properties.
Homeowners can utilize the equity they have accumulated to buy a new house if they decide to sell their current one. They can utilize the equity to pay for the down payment on a new house or to lower the size of the mortgage they need to take out. The most typical situation in which homeowners spend their equity in their homes is this one.Therefore, Most homeowners make use of their equity when they sell their house and purchase a new one.

Assume Italy and Chad can both produce grain and dates, and that the only limited resource is the farming labor force, meaning that land, water, and all other resources are plentiful in both countries. Each farmer in Italy can produce 10 t of grain or 5 t of dates in a season. Each farmer in Chad can also produce 10 t of grain or 25 t of dates.
1. Which country has the absolute advantage in producing dates?
A. Italy.
B. Chad.
C. Neither.
2. Which country has the absolute advantage in producing grain?
A. Italy.
B. Chad.
C. Neither.
3. Which country has the competitive advantage in producing dates?
A. Italy.
B. Chad.
C. Neither.
4. Which country has the comparative advantage in producing grain?
A. Italy.
B. Chad.
C. Neither.
Answer:
chad
neither
chad
Italy
Explanation:
A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.
The opportunity cost of Italy in producing one unit of grain = 5/10 = 0.5t dates
The opportunity cost of Italy in producing one unit of dates = 10/5 = 2grains
The opportunity cost of Chad in producing one unit of grain = 25/10 = 2.5 dates
The opportunity cost of Chad in producing one unit of dates = 10/25 = 0.4 grains
Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of grains while Chad has a comparative advantage in the production of dates
A country has absolute advantage in the production of a good or service if it produces more quantity of a good when compared to other countries. Chad produces 25t of dates while Italy produces 5t of dates, this shows that Chad has an absolute advantage in the production of dates. Both Italy and Chad produces the same quantity of grains so neither have an absolute advantage in the production of grains.
1-a. Allocate the lump-sum purchase price to the separate assets purchased. 1-b. Prepare the journal entry to record the purchase. 2. Compute the first-year depreciation expense on the building using the straight-line method, assuming a 15-year life and a $28,000 salvage value. 3. Compute the first-year depreciation expense on the land improvements assuming a five-year life and double-declining-balance depreciation.
Answer:
1. a. Allocated prices
First add the market values = 444,150 + 255,150 + 56,700 + 189,000 = $945,0
00
Building allocated price Land allocated price
= 444,150/ 945,000 * 830,000 = 255,150/945,000 * 830,000
= $390,100 = $224,100
Land improvement allocated price Four vehicles allocate price
= 56,700/945,000 * 830,000 = 189,000/945,000 * 830,000
= $49,800 = $166,000
b. Journal entry
Date Account Details Debit Credit
Jan. 1, 2017 Building $390,100
Land $224,100
Land improvement $49,800
Vehicles $166,000
Cash $830,000
2. Depreciation on building using straight-line method.
= (390,100 - 28,000) / 15
= $24,140
3. Depreciation on land improvements using double declining method.
First do straight line:
= 49,800/ 5 years
= $9,960
Straight line rate of depreciation = 9,960/49,800 = 20%
Double declining will be twice that rate = 40%
Depreciation = 40% * 49,800
= $19,920
Alicia owns a small pottery factory. She can make 1000 pots per year and sell them for $100 each. It costs Alicia $20,000 for the raw materials to produce the 1000 pots. She has invested $100,000 in her factory and equipment: $50,000 from her savings and $50,000 borrowed at 10%. Alicia can work at a competing pottery factory for $40,000/year. What is the accounting profit at Alicia's factory?
Answer:
$-20,000
Explanation:
Accounting profit = total revenue - total explicit cost
Total revenue = price x quantity produced
$100 x 1000 = $100,000
Total explicit cost = fixed cost + variable cost
Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with output. e,g amount invested in the factory
Variable costs are costs that vary with production. e.g. cost of raw materials
$100,000 + $20,000 = $120,000
Accounting profit = $100,000 - $120,000 = $-20,000
Murphy Company, a cash-basis, calendar-year taxpayer, received a call on December 28, year 1, from a client stating that a check for $9,000 as payment in full for their services can be picked up at their offices, two blocks away, any weekday between 1:00 and 6:00 P.M. Murphy does not pick up the check until January 3, year 2. In which year does Murphy recognize the income?
Answer:
Murphy Company
The year in which Murphy recognizes the income is year 2.
Explanation:
As a cash basis taxpayer, Murphy Company reports income and deductions in the year that they are actually paid or received. Similarly, as a cash basis taxpayer, Murphy Company deducts expenses in the year the expenses are paid off, which is not necessarily the year they were incurred. The income for services of $9,000 rendered to a customer, for which payment was received on January 3, year 2, will be recognized in year 2 and not in year 1 when the services were performed.
A 30-year maturity, 8% coupon bond paying coupons semiannually is callable in five years at a call price of $1,100. The bond currently sells at a yield to maturity of 7% and has a par value of $1,000. What is its yield to call
Answer:
6.74%
Explanation:
The computation of the yield to call is as followS;
But before that the present value is
Given that
PMT = $1,000 × 8% ÷ 2 = $40
NPER = 30 × 2 = 60
RATE = 7% ÷ 2 = 3.50
FV = $1,000
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(RATE, NPER, PMT, FV,TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the present value is $1,124.72
Now the yield to call is
Given that
PMT = $1,000 × 8% ÷ 2 = $40
NPER = 5 × 2 = 10
PV = $1,124.72
FV = $1,100
The formula is given below:
= RATE(NPER,PMT,-PV,FV,TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the yield to call is
= 3.37% × 2
= 6.74%

(f) $251,100
(g) $19,100
(h) $81,800
(i) $412,060
Explanation:
$59,750 + $50,000 - $198,600 = $88,850
$198,600 - $224,960 = $26,360
$224,960 - $189,300 = $35,660
$73,230 + $90,370 + $84,670 = $248,270
$248,270 + $19,770 = $268,040
$268,040 - $16,940 = $251,100
$133,500 + $104,900 - $257,500 = $19,100
$257,500 - $339,300 = $81,800
$339,300 + $72,760 = $412,060

22) One year ago the spot rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars was $1/C$1. Since that time the rate of inflation in the U.S. has been 4% greater than that in Canada. Based on the theory of Relative PPP, the current spot exchange rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars should be approximately ________. A) $0.96/C$ B) $1/C$1 C) $1.04/C$1 D) relative PPP provides no guide for this type of question
Answer: C) $1.04/C$1
Explanation:
We define the inflation rate in a certain country as
a rate at which the value of a currency is falling as a result the usual level of prices for goods and services keeps rising.1 year ago the spot rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars was $1/C$1.
That time inflation rate in US was 4% greater than in Canada.
So, the current spot exchange rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars :
($1 + 4% of $1)/C$1
=($1+$0.04)/ C$1
=$1.04 / C$1
Hence, the correct option is C) $1.04/C$1
