Answer:
b. Enterprise fund and depreciation on the capital assets should be recorded.
Explanation:
Cash flow can be defined as the net amount of cash and cash- equivalents that is flowing into (received) and out (given) of a business. There are three components of the cash flow;
1. Operating cash flow: all cash generated from the business activities of an organization.
2. Financing cash flow: all payments made by an organization and profits from issuance of debts and equity.
3. Investing cash flow: costs associated with purchasing of capital assets and investments of cash resources in other businesses.
Capital assets used by an enterprise fund should be accounted for in the enterprise fund and depreciation on the capital assets should be recorded.
Additionally, depreciation can be defined as the reduction of cost of a fixed asset systematically until the value of the asset becomes zero.
According to the theory of comparative advantage, consumers in all nations can consume more if there are
Answer:
no restrictions on trade
Explanation:
Comparative advantage in economics is the ability of an individual or country to produce a specific good or service at a lower opportunity cost better than another individual or country.
The comparative advantage gives a country a stronger sales margin than their competitors as they are able to sell their specific products or render their peculiar services at a lower opportunity cost.
In 1817, David Ricardo who is an english political economist talked about the law of comparative advantage in his book “On the Principles of Political Economy and Taxation." where he asserted that countries can become better off by specializing in what they do or produce best and eliminate trade barriers (restrictions).
This simply means that, any country applying the principle of comparative advantage, would enjoy an increase in output and consequently, a boost in their Gross Domestic Products (GDP).
Hence, according to the theory of comparative advantage, consumers in all nations can consume more if there are no restrictions on trade.

Using FIFO for Multiproduct Inventory Transactions (Chapters 6 and 7) [LO 6-3, LO 6-4, LO 7-3] Skip to question [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] FindMe Inc., (FI) has developed a coin-sized tracking tag that attaches to key rings, wallets, and other items and can be prompted to emit a signal using a smartphone app. FI sells these tags, as well as water-resistant cases for the tags, with terms FOB shipping point. Assume FI has no inventory at the beginning of the month, and it has outsourced the production of its tags and cases. FI uses FIFO and has entered into the following transactions:
Jan. 2: FI purchased and received 260 tags from Xioasi Manufacturing (XM) at a cost of $7 per tag, n/15.
Jan. 4: FI purchased and received 60 cases from Bachittar Products (BP) at a cost of $2 per case, n/20.
Jan. 6: FI paid cash for the tags purchased from XM on Jan. 2.
Jan. 8: FI mailed 160 tags via the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) to customers at a price of $30 per tag, on account.
Jan. 11: FI purchased and received 360 tags from XM at a cost of $10 per tag, n/15.
Jan. 14: FI purchased and received 160 cases from BP at a cost of $3 per case, n/20.
Jan. 16: FI paid cash for the cases purchased from BP on Jan. 4.
Jan. 19: FI mailed 120 cases via the USPS to customers at a price of $15 per case, on account.
Jan. 21: FI mailed 260 tags to customers at a price of $30 per tag.
1. Calculate the dollars of gross profit and the gross profit percentage from selling tags and cases.
2. Which product line yields more dollars of profit? - Which product line yields more profit per dollar of sales?
3. Calculate the dollars of gross profit and the gross profit percentage from selling tags and cases. (Round your "Gross Profit Percentage" answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
1-a. Dollars of gross profit from selling tags = $9,180
1-b. Dollars of gross profit from selling cases = $1,500
1-c. Gross profit percentage from selling tags = 72.86%
1.d. Gross profit percentage from selling cases = 83.33%
2-a. Tag yields more dollars of profit.
2-b. Tag yields more profit per dollar of sales.
Explanation:
Note: The requirements for this question are two not three as erroneously stated. This is because, the first and the third question are the same. Therefore, the two relevant requirements of the question are:
1. Calculate the dollars of gross profit and the gross profit percentage from selling tags and cases.
2. Which product line yields more dollars of profit? - Which product line yields more profit per dollar of sales?
The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:
1. Calculate the dollars of gross profit and the gross profit percentage from selling tags and cases.
Sales revenue from tags = Sales value of 160 tags mailed to customers on Jan. 8 at a price of $30 per tag + Sales value of 260 tags mailed to customers on Jan. 21 at a price of $30 per tag = (160 * $30) + (260 * $30) = $12,600
Sales revenue from cases = Sales value of 120 cases mailed to customers on Jan. 19 at a price of $15 per case = 120 * $15 = $1,800
Total number of tags sold = 160 tags mailed to customers + 260 tags mailed to customers on Jan. 21 = 420
Total number of cases sold = 120 cases mailed to customers on Jan. 19 at a price of $15 per case = 120
Using FIFO, we have:
Cost of tags sold = Value of 260 tags purchased on Jan.2 from Xioasi Manufacturing (XM) at a cost of $7 per tag + Value of the remaining 160 (i.e. 420 – 260 = 160) tags sold based on the 360 tags purchased on Jan. 11 from XM at a cost of $10 per tag = (260 * $7) + (160 * $10) = $3,420
Cost of cases sold = Value of 60 cases purchased on Jan.4 from Bachittar Products (BP) at a cost of $2 per case + Value of the remaining 60 cases sold based on the 160 cases purchased on Jan. 14 from BP at a cost of $3 per case = (60 * $2) + (60 * $3) = $300
Therefore, we have:
1-a. Dollars of gross profit from selling tags = Sales revenue from tags - Cost of tags sold = $12,600 - $3,420 = $9,180
1-b. Dollars of gross profit from selling cases = Sales revenue from cases - Cost of cases sold = $1,800 - $300 = $1,500
1-c. Gross profit percentage from selling tags = (Dollars of gross profit from selling tags / Sales revenue from tags) * 100 = ($9,180 / $12,600) * 100 = 72.86%
1.d. Gross profit percentage from selling cases = (Dollars of gross profit from selling cases / Sales revenue from cases) * 100 = 83.33%
2. Which product line yields more dollars of profit? - Which product line yields more profit per dollar of sales?
2-a. Which product line yields more dollars of profit?
From part 1 above, we have:
Dollars of gross profit from selling tags = $9,180
Dollars of gross profit from selling cases = $1,500
Since the dollars of gross profit from selling tags of $9,180 is greater than the dollars of gross profit from selling cases of $1,500, this implies that Tag yields more dollars of profit.
2-b. Which product line yields more profit per dollar of sales?
From part 1 above, we have:
Total number of tags sold = 420
Total number of cases sold = 120
Therefore, we have:
Tag's profit per dollar of sales = Dollars of gross profit from selling tags / Total number of tags sold = $9,180 / 420 = $21.86
Case's profit per dollar of sales = Dollars of gross profit from selling cases / Total number of cases sold = $1,500 / 120 = $12.50
Since Tag's profit per dollar of sales of $21.86 is greater than Case's profit per dollar of sales of $12.50, this implies that Tag yields more profit per dollar of sales.
Activity-Based Costing for a Service Business Sterling Hotel uses activity-based costing to determine the cost of servicing customers. There are three activity pools: guest check-in, room cleaning, and meal service. The activity rates associated with each activity pool are $8.40 per guest check-in, $21.00 per room cleaning, and $4.00 per served meal (not including food). Julie Stone visited the hotel for a 6-night stay. Julie had 3 meals in the hotel during the visit. Determine the total monthly activity-based cost for Washington during the month.
Answer:
Total allocated cost= $146.4
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Julie Stone visited the hotel for a 6-night stay.
Julie had 3 meals in the hotel during the visit.
guest check-in= $8.40 per guest check-in
room cleaning= $21.00 per room cleaning
meal service= $4.00 per served meal
To allocate costs based on the activity, we need to use the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
guest check-in= 8.40*1= 8.4
room cleaning= 21.00*6= 126
meal service= 4.00*3= 12
Total allocated cost= $146.4

The cost of beginning work in process and the costs added during May were as follows:
DM Conversion
work in process, May 1 $94,128 $59,904
costs added during May $418,986 $372,816
Calculate the total cost of the 113,000 units in beginning work in process using the FIFO process costing method.
Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
This total cost of the 113,000 units in beginning work in process using the FIFO process costing method calculated using the following 4 steps:
Step 1: Calculation of equivalent units
Particulars DM Conversion
To complete work in process, May 1:
113000*(1-33%) 75,710
113000*(1-48%) 58,760
Units started and completed (w.1) 88,000 88,000
Work in process, May 31:
169000*74% 125,060
169000*28% 47,320
Equivalent units 288,770 194,080
Step 2: Calculation of cost per equivalent units
Cost per Equivalent unit = Costs incurred during May / Equivalent units ....... (1)
Using equation (1), we have:
DM Cost per Equivalent unit = $418,986 / 288,770 = $1.45
Conversion Cost per Equivalent unit = $288,770 / 194,080 = $1.92
Step 3: Calculation of Total Cost to complete work in process, May 1
Cost to complete work in process, May 1 = To complete work in process, May 1 * Cost per Equivalent unit ................ (2)
Using equation (1), we have:
DM Cost to complete work in process, May 1 = 75,710.00 * $1.45 = $109,850.16
Conversion Cost to complete work in process, May 1 = 58,760 * $1.92 = $112,874.42
Total Cost to complete work in process, May 1 = DM Cost to complete work in process, May 1 + Conversion Cost to complete work in process, May 1 = $109,850.16 + $112,874.42 + $222,724.58
Step 4: Calculation of Total cost of the 113,000 units in beginning work in process
Total cost of the 113,000 units in beginning work in process = Work in process, May 1 + Cost to complete work in process, May 1 = $59,904 + $222,724.58 + $282,628.58
Workings:
w.1: Units started and completed = Units started during May - Work in process, May 1 = 201,000 - 113,000 = 88,000

The Sunland Inc., a manufacturer of low-sugar, low-sodium, low-cholesterol TV dinners, would like to increase its market share in the Sunbelt. In order to do so, Sunland has decided to locate a new factory in the Panama City area. Sunland will either buy or lease a site depending upon which is more advantageous. The site location committee has narrowed down the available sites to the following three very similar buildings that will meet their needs. Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $612,100, useful life 26 years. Building B: Lease for 26 years with annual lease payments of $71,490 being made at the beginning of the year. Building C: Purchase for $655,200 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 26 years at a net annual rental of $6,850. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year. The Sunland Inc. has no aversion to being a landlord.
Instructions:
In which building would you recommend that Brubaker Inc. locate, assuming a 12% cost of funds?
Answer:
Building C
Explanation:
To solve this, we find the present value of each of the buildings.
Building A: We are told that it is to be Purchased for a cash price of $612,100, useful life 26 years. Thus;
PV = $612000
Building B: PV = 71490 + (71490 × ((1+r)ⁿ - 1)/(r(1+r)ⁿ)
Where,
r = 12% = 0.12
n = 26 - 1 = 25
Thus;
PV = 71490 + (71490 × (1 + 0.12)^(25) -1)/(0.12(1 + 0.12)^25)
PV = = $632196
Building C:
PV = 655200 - 6850 × ((1+r)ⁿ - 1)/(r(1+r)ⁿ)
Where;
r = 12% = 0.12
n=26
Thus;
PV = 655200 - (6850 × (1 + 0.12)^(25) -1)/(0.12(1 + 0.12)^25)
PV = $601474
Thus, the minimum PV is building C and therefore it is the one I will recommend that Brubaker Inc. locate
usiness Solutions sells upscale modular desk units and office chairs in the ratio of 3:2 (desk unit:chair). The selling prices are $1,250 per desk unit and $500 per chair. The variable costs are $750 per desk unit and $250 per chair. Fixed costs are $120,000. Required: 1. Compute the selling price per composite unit. 2. Compute the variable costs per composite unit. 3. Compute the break-even point in composite units. 4. Compute the number of units of each product that w
Answer:
1. Selling price per composite unit = Price of desk unit * (Ratio of desk unit) + Price of chair * (Ratio of chair)
= $1250*(3) + $500*(2)
= $3,750 + $1,000
= $4,750
2. Variable costs per composite unit = Variable cost per desk unit * (Ratio of desk unit) + Variable cost per chair * (Ratio of chair)
= $750*(3) + $250*(2)
= $2,250 + $500
= $2,750
3. Break even point in composite units = Fixed costs / (Composite selling price - Composite variable cost)
= $120,000 / ($4750 - $2750)
= $120,000 / $2000
= 60 units
4. Number desk units sold at break even point = 60 composite units* 3 per composite unit = 180 units
Number of chairs sold at break even point = 60 composite units * 2 per composite unit = 120 units
John's House of Pancakes uses a weighted moving average method to forecast pancake sales. It assigns a weight of 5 to the previous month's demand, 3 to demand two months ago, and 1 to demand three months ago. If sales amounted to 992 pancakes in May, 2,222 pancakes in June, and 2,907 pancakes in July, what should be the forecast for August
Answer:
2,466
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what should be the forecast for August
August Forecast =[992 pancakes +(2,222 pancakes x3)+(2,907 pancakes x5)]/(5+3+1) =
August Forecast =(992 pancakes+6,666 pancakes+14,535 pancakes)/9
August Forecast =22,193 pancakes/9
August Forecast =2,466
Therefore should be the forecast for August is 2,466

g Sparky Corporation uses the weighted-average method of process costing. The following information is available for February in its Molding Department: Units: Beginning Inventory: 27,000 units, 100% complete as to materials and 55% complete as to conversion. Units started and completed: 114,000. Units completed and transferred out: 141,000. Ending Inventory: 31,000 units, 100% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion. Costs: Costs in beginning Work in Process - Direct Materials: $45,000. Costs in beginning Work in Process - Conversion: $50,850. Costs incurred in February - Direct Materials: $311,160. Costs incurred in February - Conversion: $601,150. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit of conversion. Group of answer choices $4.76 $3.96 $5.29 $4.34 $5.69
Answer:
Conversion cost per equivalent unit = $4.76
Explanation:
Conversion cost per equivalent unit = Total conversion cost / Equivalent units
Conversion cost is the sum of the direct labour cost and the factory overhead cost.
Equivalent units are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion cost between work progress and completed work. These units are determined as follows:
Equivalent units = Degree of work done(%) × units of inventory
Equivalent units
Item Unit Equivalent unit
Completed unit 140,000 140000× 100% 140,000
Closing inventory 31,000 31,000× 30% 9,300
Total equivalent unit 149,300
Completed units = opening inventory + units started in the period - closing inventory
Completed units = 27000 + 114,000 - 31,000 = 140,000
The conversion cost = 50,850 + 601,150 = 652,000
conversion cost per equivalent unit = 652,000 /140,000 = 4.65
Conversion cost per equivalent unit = $4.76
Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below:
Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost
Direct materials 4.6 pounds $2.50 per pound $11.50
Direct labor 0.2 hours $18.00 per hour $3.60
During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded:
a. Twenty thousand pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.35 per pound.
b. All of the material purchased was used to produce 4,000 units of Zoom.
c. 750 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $14,925.
Required:
Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month.
Answer:
AQ = Actual quantity = 20,000 pounds
AP = Actual price = $2.35 per pound.
SQ = Standard quantity = 4,000 units*4.6 pounds per unit = 18,400 pounds
SP = Standard price = $2.50 per unit
AH = Actual hours = 750 hours.
AR = Actual rate = Total actual cost/Actual hours = $14,925/750 hours = $19.90.
SH= Standard hours = 0.2 hours per unit*4,000 units = 800 hours.
SR = Standard rate = $18 per hour
Materials price variance = (AQ *AP) - (AQ *SP) =
Materials price variance = (20,000*$2.35) - (20,000 *$2.50)
Materials price variance = $47,000 - $50,000
Materials price variance = $3,000 (F)
Material quantity variance = (AQ*SP) - (SQ*SP)
Material quantity variance = (20,000*$2.50) - (18,400*$2.50)
Material quantity variance = $50,000 - $46,000
Material quantity variance = $4,000 (U)
All of the following regarding accounting for Treasury Stock are true except: Multiple Choice Corporations do not record gains or losses on transactions involving their own stock. Treasury Stock receives cash dividends but not stock dividends. Purchasing Treasury Stock reduces the corporation’s assets and equity by equal amounts. Treasury Stock is presented on the balance sheet as a contra equity account. Treasury Stock does not have voting rights.
Answer:
Treasury Stock receives cash dividends but not stock dividends.
Explanation:
Shares owned by the issuing company itself are considered as Treasury Stock. Prime reason company buys their own stock to reduce dividend expense and save cash. So, it does not make any sense to pay dividends to Treasury stock.
Advisors, an international pension fund manager, uses the concepts of purchasing power parity(PPP) and the International Fisher Effect (IFE) to forecast spot exchange rates. Omni gathers the financial information as follows:
Base price level 100
Current U.S. price level 105
Current South African price level 111
Base rand spot exchange rate $0.175
Current rand spot exchange rate $0.158
Expected annual U.S. inflation 7%
Expected annual South African inflation 5%
Expected U.S. one-year interest rate 10%
Expected South African one-year interest rate 8%
Required:
Calculate the following exchange rates (ZAR and USD refer to the South African rand and U.S. dollar, respectively)
a. The current ZAR spot rate in USD that would been forecast by PPP.
b. Using the IFE, the expected ZAR spot rate in USD one year from now.
c. Using PPP, the expected ZAR spot rate in USD four years from now.
Answer:
a. Current spot rate / Base spot rate = Price level in home country / Price level in foreign country
CSR / 0.175 =105 / 111
CSR = (105/ 111) * 0.175
= $0.1655 / ZAR
b. Expected ZAR spot rate / Current ZAR spot rate = (1 + interest rate in home country) / (1 + interest rate in foreign country)
Expected ZAR spot rate / 0.158 = (1 + 10%) / ( 1 + 8%)
Expected ZAR spot rate = (1.1/1.08) * 0.158
= $0.1609 / ZAR
c. Expected ZAR spot rate / Current ZAR spot rate = (1 + inflation rate in home country) / (1 + inflation rate in foreign country)
Expected ZAR spot rate / 0.158 = (1 + 7%) / ( 1 + 5%)
= 1.07/1.05 * 0.158
= $0.1610 / ZAR

The process of earning compound interest allows a depositor or investor to earn interest on any interest earned in prior periods.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
A) true
Explanation:
Compound interest can be regarded as
adding of interest gotten to the principal sum of a deposit or the principal sum of a loan. It's one that is gotten after reinvesting of ones interest instead of paying it out, as a result of this the interest that comes in
next period will be earned on the principal sum along with those interests accumulated before. It should be noted the process of earning compound interest allows a depositor or investor to earn interest on any interest earned in prior periods.
Suppose you win on a scratch‑off lottery ticket and you decide to put all of your $3,500 winnings in the bank. The reserve requirement is 10%. What is the maximum possible increase in the money supply as a result of your bank deposit? Which events could cause the increase in the money supply to be less than its potential?
A. Banks decide to keep some excess reserves on hand.
B. Banks choose to loan out all excess reserves.
C. All money loaned out is deposited back into the banking system.
D. Some loan recipients choose to hold some cash instead of depositing all of it in banks.
Answer:
35000
A, d
Explanation:
Reserve requirement is the portion of deposit received by banks that the central bank requires to be kept as deposit.
If $3500 is deposited and reserve requirement is 10%
reserves would increase by $3500 x 0.10 = $350
Increase in the total value of checkable deposit is determined by the money multiplier
Money multiplier = amount deposited / reserve requirement
3500 / 0.1 = 35000
If the banks keep excess reserves, the amount of money available to be loaned out would reduce and this would reduce the increase in money supply.
Also, if individuals keep the money at home, it would reduce the amount of money that can be loaned out by banks
