A company uses a process costing system. Its Assembly Department's beginning inventory consisted of 54,800 units, 75% complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. The department completed and transferred out 115,500 units this period. The ending inventory consists of 44,800 units that are 25% complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. The department incurred direct labor costs of $36,000 and overhead costs of $44,000 for the period. Assuming the weighted average method, the direct labor cost per equivalent unit (rounded to the nearest cent) is:
Answer:
$0.28/EUP
Explanation:
Calculation for the direct labor cost per equivalent unit (rounded to the nearest cent) is:
First step is to calculate the Total EUP's
Completed and transferred out 115,500
Add EGIP $11,200
(44,800 * 25%)
Total EUP's $126,700
Now let calculate direct labor cost per equivalent unit using this formula
Direct labor cost per equivalent unit=Cost / Eup
Let plug in the formula
Direct labor cost per equivalent unit=($36,000/$126,700)
Direct labor cost per equivalent unit=$0.28/EUP
Therefore Assuming the weighted average method, the direct labor cost per equivalent unit (rounded to the nearest cent) is:$0.28/EUP
Marigold Corp. took a physical inventory on December 31 and determined that goods costing $155,000 were on hand. Not included in the physical count were $28,000 of goods purchased from Pelzer Corporation, FOB shipping point, and $21,800 of goods sold to Alvarez Company for $30,400, FOB destination. Both the Pelzer purchase and the Alvarez sale were in transit at year-end. What amount should Marigold report as its December 31 inventory
Answer: $204,800
Explanation:
When a good is shipped FOB shipping point, it means that the buyer assumes responsibility for the goods as soon as the goods reach the place they will be shipped from. The purchase from Pelzer should therefore be included in inventory because it has already been shipped.
A good shipped FOB Destination means that the buyer only assumes responsibility after the goods have been delivered to them. As the sale to Alvarez was still in transit, it is still the responsibility of Marigold and should be included in inventory.
Inventory is therefore:
= 155,000 + 28,000 + 21,800
= $204,800
is it possible for a company to be too liquid
Answer:
yes it is possible ......
Answer:
A company can have too much liquidity, which may be a sign that it's holding onto cash that could be invested. In a sense, even borrowing money is another typical source of liquidity for businesses. To meet its obligations, the ability to take out loans will be a factor in its liquidity.

A congresswoman from a state with several semiconductor factories argues that the government should impose a tariff on semiconductors because they are a necessary input into the production of various weapons. Free trade, she contends, would make the United States overly dependent on foreign countries for the supply of semiconductors and thus, in case of war, unable to make enough weapons to defend itself. Which of the following justifications is the senator using to argue for the trade restriction on semiconductors?
a. Infant-industry argument
b. Using-protection-as-a-bargaining-chip argument
c. Jobs argument
d. Unfair-competition argument
e. National-security argument
Answer:
National-security argument
Explanation:
Governments may intervene in markets for any reason at all.
A tariff is simply known as a tax
that is imposed on imports. There are various reasons why trade is restricted for product or services. The different arguments for restricting trade includes:
1. jobs argument
2. national security argument
3. infant-industry argument
4. unfair-competition argument
5. protection-as-bargaining-chip argument
The national security argument state that industries or product important to national security should be protected from foreign competition and not allow to focus mainly on dependence on imports that could be scattered during wartime.
The National Security Response is said to be as good as long as we base policy on true security needs.
Riverside Oil Company in eastern Kentucky produces regular and supreme gasoline. Each barrel of regular sells for $21 and must have an octane rating of at least 90. Each barrel of supreme sells for $25 and must have an octane rating of at least 97. Each of these types of gasoline are manufactured by mixing different quantities of the following three inputs:
Input Cost per Barrel Octane Rating Barrels Available in (1000s)
1 $17.25 100 150
2 $15.75 87 350
3 $17.75 110 300
Riverside has orders for 300,000 barrels of regular and 450,000 barrels of supreme. How should the company allocate the available inputs to the production of regular and supreme gasoline to maximize profits?
a. Formulate and LP model for this problem.
b. What is the optimal solution?
Solution :
Here,
[tex]$X_{iR}$[/tex] = the number of the barrels mixed i to manufacture the regular gasoline
[tex]$X_{iS}$[/tex] = the number of the barrels mixed i to manufacture the supreme gasoline.
The [tex]$\text{selling price}$[/tex] of each of the barrel of both gasoline is [tex]$\$ 21$[/tex] and [tex]$\$25$[/tex]. So the total [tex]$\text{selling price}$[/tex] of both types of gasoline is represented by :
[tex]$21 \times \sum X_{iR} +25 \times \sum X_{iS}$[/tex]
The cost prices of one barrel of the three types of input are 17.25, 1575 and 17.75.
So the total price is represented by :
[tex]$17.25 \times (X_{iR}+X_{iS})+15.75 \times (X_{2R}+X_{2S})+17.75 \times (X_{3R}+X_{3S})$[/tex]
The company wants to increase the profit. So maximize objective function will be used.
Max Z = [tex]$(21. \times \sum X_{iR} +24 \times \sum X_{iS})-[17.25 \times (X_{iR}+X_{iS})+17.75 \times (X_{2R}+X_{2S})+17.75 \times (X_{3R}+X_{3S})]$[/tex]The company has 150,000 barrels of input 1 available. So,
[tex]$X_{1R}+ X_{1S} \leq 150,000$[/tex]
[tex]$X_{2R}+ X_{2S} \leq 350,000$[/tex]
[tex]$X_{3R}+ X_{3S} \leq 300,000$[/tex]
The company got an order to sell 300,000 barrels of regular and 450,000 barrels of supreme gasoline. So,
[tex]$X_{1R}+X_{2R}+X_{3R} = 300,000$[/tex]
[tex]$X_{1S}+X_{2S}+X_{3S} = 450,000$[/tex]
The company wishes the regular gasoline to have octane number of at least 90. So,
[tex]$\frac{100 \times X_{1R}+87 \times X_{2R} +10 \times X_{3R}}{\sum X_{iR}}\geq 90$[/tex]
The company wishes the supreme gasoline to have octane number of at least 97. So,
[tex]$\frac{100 \times X_{1S}+87 \times X_{2S} +10 \times X_{3S}}{\sum X_{iR}}\geq 97$[/tex]
Formulating the LP model :
Max :
[tex]$[21 \times \sum X_{iR}+25 \times \sum X_{iS}]$[/tex] [tex]$-[17.25 \times (X_{1R}+X_{1S})+15.75 \times (X_{2R}+X_{2S})+17.75 \times (X_{3R}+X_{3S})]$[/tex]
Subject to :
[tex]$X_{1R}+ X_{1S} \leq 150,000$[/tex]
[tex]$X_{2R}+ X_{2S} \leq 350,000$[/tex]
[tex]$X_{3R}+ X_{3S} \leq 300,000$[/tex]
Also,
[tex]$X_{1R}+X_{2R}+X_{3R} = 300,000$[/tex]
[tex]$X_{1S}+X_{2S}+X_{3S} = 450,000$[/tex]
[tex]$\frac{100 \times X_{1R}+87 \times X_{2R} +10 \times X_{3R}}{\sum X_{iR}}\geq 90$[/tex]
[tex]$\frac{100 \times X_{1S}+87 \times X_{2S} +10 \times X_{3S}}{\sum X_{iR}}\geq 97$[/tex]
Riverbed Company had $151,800 of net income in 2016 when the selling price per unit was $151, the variable costs per unit were $91, and the fixed costs were $575,800. Management expects per unit data and total fixed costs to remain the same in 2017. The president of Riverbed Company is under pressure from stockholders to increase net income by $64,300 in 2017.
1. Compute the number of units sold in 2016. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 1,225.)
2. Compute the number of units that would have to be sold in 2017 to reach the stockholders' desired profit level.
3. Assume that Naylor Company sells the same number of units in 2017 as it did in 2016. What would the selling price have to be in order to reach the stockholders? (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.)
Answer:
Riverbed Company
1. The number of units sold in 2016:
= 12,127
2. The number of units that would have to be sold in 2017 to meet desired profit level of stockholders:
= 13,199
3. Assuming that Naylor Company sells the same number of units in 2017 as it did in 2016, the selling price have to increase to $156.30 per unit, in order to achieve stockholders' desire for more profitability.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
2016 net income = $151,800
Selling price = $151
Variable cost per unit = $91
Contribution = $60
Fixed costs = $575,800
Units sold = 12,127 ($575,800 + 151,800)/$60
When net income increases by $64,300, the units sold will increase by 1,072 ($64,300/$60)
Sales volume = 13,199 (12,127 + 1,072)
To achieve the same level of profitability ($216,100) at the same level of units sold, the price will increase by $5.30 ($64,300/12,127) to $156.30.
Bonita Enterprises reported cost of goods sold for 2020 of $1,419,800 and retained earnings of $5,569,300 at December 31, 2020. Bonita later discovered that its ending inventories at December 31, 2019 and 2020, were overstated by $99,040 and $31,710, respectively. Determine the corrected amounts for 2020 cost of goods sold and December 31, 2020, retained earnings.
Answer:cost of goods sold in 2020 = $1,352,470
retained earnings in December 31, 2020 =$5,537,590
Explanation:
For cost of goods sold in 2020
Corrected cost of goods sold = Reported cost of goods sold in 2020 - overstated value of ending inventory in year 2019 + overstated value of ending inventory in year 2020
= $1,419,800 -$99,040+ $31,710,
= $1,352,470
For retained earnings in December 31, 2020
Corrected retained earnings == Reported retained earning in 2020 - overstated value of ending inventory in year 2020
= $5,569,300-$31,710
=$5,537,590
Longobardi Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on the estimated labor-hours for the upcoming year. At the beginning of the most recently completed year, the Corporation estimated the labor-hours for the upcoming year at 35,600 labor-hours. The estimated variable manufacturing overhead was $6.76 per labor-hour and the estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead was $906,732. The actual labor-hours for the year turned out to be 32,000 labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to:
Answer: $32.23 per labor-hour
Explanation:
To solve the question, we need to first calculate the estimated total manufacturing overhead which will be:
= $906,732 + ($6.76 per labor-hour × 35,600 labor-hours)
= $906732 + $240656
= $1,147,388
Predetermined overhead rate will then be:
= $1,147,388 / 35,600 labor-hours
= $32.23 per labor hour

After reading the article, select the statements that are correct. Choose one or more: A. Elizabeth Warren has proposed using a new inflation measure that outpaces the current one used. B. The former program trustee argues that the current inflation measure overcompensates seniors since it ignores the substitution effect. C. According to advocates for seniors, the 2020 COLA is not enough to compensate for rising healthcare costs. D. Next year, the average monthly Social Security payment will be almost $1,800. E. The cost-of-living adjustment for 2020 is more than what it was in 2019.
Answer:
A). Elizabeth Warren has proposed using a new inflation measure that outpaces the current one used.
B). The former program trustee argues that the current inflation measure overcompensates seniors since it ignores the substitution effect.
C). According to advocates for seniors, the 2020 COLA is not enough to compensate for rising healthcare costs.
Explanation:
In the context of the article titled 'Social Security checks to rise modestly amid a push to expand benefits,' the first three statements assert the appropriate claims. It correctly states the new course of action for dealing with inflation as proposed by Elizabeth Warren after Blahous and seniors' complaint about the problems associated with the present rate for adjusting inflation as it ignored the impact created by substitution. Since the present program(COLA) could not fulfill the compensation needs of the seniors, the new program has been proposed to overcome these flaws and compensate them appropriately.
The Duerr Company manufactures a single product. All raw materials used are traceable to specific units of product. Current information for the Duerr Company follows:
Beginning raw materials inventory $28,000
Ending raw materials inventory 31,000
Raw material purchases 105,000
Beginning work in process inventory 40,000
Ending work in process inventory 50,000
Direct labor 130,000
Total factory overhead 105,000
Beginning finished goods inventory 80,000
Ending finished goods inventory 60,000
The company's cost of raw materials used, cost of goods manufactured and cost of goods sold is:________.
A. Cost of Materials Used Cost of Goods Manufactured Cost of Goods Sold
$105,000 $327,000 $307,000
B. $100,000 $327,000 $342.000
Answer:
Direct material used= $102,000
Cost of goods manufactured= $327,000
COGS= $347,000
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the cost of direct material used:
Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory
Direct material used= 28,000 + 105,000 - 31,000
Direct material used= $102,000
Now, the cost of goods manufactured:
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials used + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
cost of goods manufactured= 40,000 + 102,000 + 130,000 + 105,000 - 50,000
cost of goods manufactured= $327,000
Finally, the cost of goods sold:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory
COGS= 80,000 + 327,000 - 60,000
COGS= $347,000
Routsong Corporation had the following sales and production for the past four years:
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4

Sales in units 6,000 6,000 5,000 7,000
Selling price per unit, variable cost per unit, and total fixed cost are the same each year. There were no beginning inventories in Year 1. Which of the following statements is not correct?
A. Under variable costing, net operating income for Year 1 and Year 2 would be the same.B. Because of the changes in production levels, under variable costing the unit product cost will change each year.C. The total net operating income for all four years combined would be the same under variable and absorption costing.D. Under absorption costing, net operating income in Year 4 would be less than the net operating income in Year 2.
Answer:
B. Because of the changes in production levels, under variable costing the unit product cost will change each year
Explanation:
In variable costing, Product Cost is the total of variable manufacturing costs only. Whereas in Absorption costing, the Product cost is the total of both variable and fixed manufacturing overheads.
The following statements is not correct : Because of the changes in production levels, under variable costing the unit product cost will change each year.
ASC 480-10 provides guidance on determining whether (1) certain financial instruments with both debt-like and equity-like characteristics should be accounted for outside of equity (i.e., as liabilities or, in some cases, assets) by the issuer and (2) SEC registrants should present certain redeemable equity instruments as temporary equity. Examples of contracts and transactions that may require evaluation under ASC 480-10 include:________
Answer:
. Redeemable shares.
• Redeemable noncontrolling interests.
• Forward contracts to repurchase own shares.
• Forward contracts to sell redeemable shares.
• Written put options on own stock.
• Warrants (and written call options) on redeemable equity shares.
• Warrants on shares with deemed liquidation provisions.
• Puttable warrants on own stock.
• Equity collars.
• Share-settled debt (this term is used to describe a share-settled obligation that is not in the legal form of debt but has the same economic payoff profile as debt).
• Preferred shares that are mandatorily convertible into a variable number of common shares.
• Unsettled treasury stock transactions.
• Accelerated share repurchase programs.
• Hybrid equity units.
Explanation:
ASC 480-10 is used when an issuer, in the declaration of its financial position, has to categorize some financial instruments that share the characteristics of liabilities and equities. The issuer always classifies legal-form debt as liability and this makes it not applicable under the ASC 480-10.
Under the ASC 480-10, three types of financial instruments are meant to be classified and they include;
1. Mandatorily redeemable financial instruments
2. Obligations to repurchase the entity’s equity shares by transferring assets, and
3.Certain obligations to issue a variable number of equity shares

Budgeted sales for the month at 4,600 units. Budgeted variable selling and admin expense is $7.30 per unit. Budgeted fixed selling and admin expense is $51,980 of which $6,440 is depreciation. What is the budgeted cash disbursement amount for selling and administrative expense for the month?
Answer:
$79,120
Explanation:
Calculation for the budgeted cash disbursement amount for selling and administrative expense for the month
First step is to calculate the Total variable selling and administrative expense
Using this formula
Total variable selling and administrative expense= Budgeted unit sales for August × variable selling and administrative expense per unit
Let plug in the formula
Total variable selling and administrative expense= 4,600 × $7.30
Total variable selling and administrative expense= $33,580
Second step is to calculate the Total fixed selling and administrative expense
Total fixed selling and administrative expense
= Budgeted fixed selling and administrative expense - Depreciation per month
Let plug in the formula
Total fixed selling and administrative expense= $51,980 - $6,440
Total fixed selling and administrative expense=$45,540
Now let calculate the budgeted cash disbursement amount for selling and administrative expense for the month
Using this formula
Budgeted cash disbursement = Total variable selling and administrative expense + Total fixed selling and administrative expense
Let plug in the formula
Budgeted cash disbursement= $33,580 + $45,540
Budgeted cash disbursement= $79,120
Therefore the budgeted cash disbursement amount for selling and administrative expense for the month will be $79,120
A bank has kept records of the checking balances of its customers and determined that the average daily balance of its customers is $300 with a standard deviation of $56. A random sample of 200 checking accounts is selected. You are interested in calculating the following probabilities below.1. Assuming that the population of the checking account balances is normally distributed, what is the probability that a randomly selected account has a balance of more than $305?2. What is the probability that the mean balance for the selected sample is above $295?3. What is the probability that the mean balance for the selected sample is below $290?4. What is the probability that the mean balance for the selected sample is between $302 and $304?
Answer:
1. P(X > 305) = $0.1038
2. P ( X > 295) = $0.8962
3. P ( X > 290) = $0.0057
4. P(302 < X < 304 ) = $0.1488
Explanation:
Solution:
Data Given:
Mean = u = $300
SD = Standard Deviation = $56
Sample Size = n = 200
uX = u = 300
SDX = [tex]\frac{SD}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{56}{\sqrt{200} }[/tex] = 3.96
1.
P(X > 305) = 1-P ([tex]\frac{X - uX}{SDX} < \frac{305 - 300}{3.96}[/tex])
P(X > 305) = 1-P (Z < 1.26)
Using Standard Normal Table, we have:
P(X > 305) = 1 - 0.8962
Probability = $0.1038
2.
P ( X > 295) = 1 - P ( [tex]\frac{X - uX }{SDX} < \frac{295 - 300}{3.96}[/tex] )
P ( X > 295) = 1 - P (Z< 1.26)
Using standard normal table, we have:
P ( X > 295) = 1 - 0.1038
P ( X > 295) = $0.8962
3.
P ( X > 290) = P ( [tex]\frac{X - uX }{SDX} < \frac{290 - 300}{3.96}[/tex] )
P ( X > 290) = P ( z< -2.53)
Using Standard normal table, we have:
P ( X > 290) = $0.0057
4.
P(302 < X < 304 ) = P ( [tex]\frac{302 - 300}{3.96} < \frac{X - uX}{SDX} < \frac{304 - 300}{3.96}[/tex] )
P(302 < X < 304 ) = P ( 0.51 < z < 1.01)
P(302 < X < 304 ) = P (z < 1.01) - P (z < 0.51)
P(302 < X < 304 ) = 0.8438 - 0.6950
P(302 < X < 304 ) = $0.1488

Answer the question on the basis of the following two schedules, which show the amounts of additional satisfaction (marginal utility) that a consumer would get from successive quantities of products J and K.
Units of J MUj Units of K MUk
1 56 1 32
2 48 2 28
3 32 3 24
4 24 4 20
5 20 5 12
6 16 6 10
7 12 7 8
If the consumer's money income were cut from $52 to $28, and the prices of J and K remain at $8 and $4, respectively, she would maximize her satisfaction by purchasing:
a. 4 units of J and 5 units of K.
b. 6 units of J and 3 units of K.
c. 5 units of J and 5 units of K.
d. 2 units of J and 7 units of K.
Answer:
d. 2 units of J and 7 units of K.
Explanation:
Marginal utility of a consumer is the measure of the benefit gained by consuming each additional unit. In the given scenario the consumer will gain from consuming each additional unit of J and K. When the consumer will have more of J then his marginal utility will decline which indicates that there should be combination of J and K.
On January 1, 2021, The Barrett Company purchased merchandise from a supplier. Payment was a noninterestbearing note requiring five annual payments of $20,000 on each December 31 beginning on December 31, 2021, and a lump-sum payment of $100,000 on December 31, 2025. A 10% interest rate properly reflects the time value of money in this situation.Required:Calculate the amount at which Barrett should record the note payable and corresponding merchandise purchased on January 1, 2021.
Answer:
Barrett Company
The amount at which Barrett should record the note payable and corresponding merchandise purchased on January 1, 2021 is:
= $125,500.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Non-interest-bearing note annual payment = $20,000
Date of annual payments = December 31
Lump sum payment on December 31, 2025 = $100,000
Interest rate reflecting the time value of money = 10%
The amount for the note payable and corresponding merchandise on January 1, 2021 is:
PV annuity factor for 4 years at 10% = 3.170
Total PV of annual payments = $63,400 ($20,000 * 3.170)
PV of lump-sum payment = 62,100 ($100,000 * 0.621)
Total PV of payments = $125,500
Assume markup is based on cost. Find the dollar markup and selling price for the following problem.
Item Cost Markup percent Dollar markup Selling price
Burberry men’s watch $590 20%
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the dollar markup and the selling price is shown below
The dollar markup is
= $590 × 20%
= $118
And, the selling price
= Cost + dollar markup
= $590 + $118
= $708
hence, the same would be relevant and considered too
Assume the perpetual inventory method is used:
a. Green Company purchased merchandise inventory that cost $16,800 under terms of 2/10, n/30 and FOB shipping point.
b. Green Company paid freight cost of $680 to have the merchandise delivered.
c. Payment was made to the supplier on the inventory within 10 days.
d. All of the merchandise was sold to customers for $25,100 cash and delivered under terms FOB destination with freight cost amounting to $480.
The gross margin from these transactions of Green Company is:________
Answer:
Gross margin = $8156
Explanation:
Formula for gross margin is given by;
Gross margin = Revenue - Cost of goods sold
where,
Revenue = $25100
Cost of goods sold = (cost of Purchase × ( 1 - Discount rate)) + freight cost
Thus;
Cost of goods sold = $16800 - (16800 × 0.02)) + $480
Cost of goods sold = $16944
Thus;
Gross margin = $25100 - $16944
Gross margin = $8156

The Board of Ursinus College in Pennsylvania raised its tuition and fees 17.6 percent to $23,460 in 2000. It subsequently received 200 more applications than the year before. The president of the college surmised that "applicants had apparently concluded that if the college cost more, it must be better." Other colleges that raised tuition to match rival colleges in recent years include University of Notre Dame, Bryn Mawr College, Rice University, and the University of Richmond. They also experienced an increase in applications. In contrast, North Carolina Wesleyan College lowered their tuition and fees about 10 years ago by 22 percent and attracted fewer students. The college president concluded that "it didn't work out the way it had been hoped. People don't want cheap."
You are hired as a consultant to a President of a liberal arts college in the East. You are asked to evaluate a recommendation by the college's Admissions Director. Susan Hansen, to increase tuition and to reduce financial aid to students. Susan argues that the data from competing colleges suggest that the demand curves for colleges slope upward-the quantity demanded increases with price. Susan projects that the increase in tuition and reduction in financial aid will solve the school's financial problems. Last year, the college enrolled 400 new students who each paid an effective tuition of $15,000 (after financial aid), totaling $6,000,000. She projects that with the increased demand from charging an effective tuition of $25,000, the college will be able to enroll 600 new students (of equal or better quality), totaling $15,000,000.
Required:
Evaluate Susan's analysis and recommendation
Solution :
The demand curve : The quantity demanded for each price
[tex]$D=Q(P)$[/tex]
The prices goes up, quantity demanded will decreases.
The price goes up, quantity demanded will increase
Board of the Ursinus College in Pennsylvania raised tuition fees : $ 23,460 which is 17.6 % more to 2000.
The applicants : 200 more from previous year.
Therefore the college cost most, then it must be better.
Other rival competitions have also seen same scenarios. When cost goes down, the demand decreases.
Susan's perceptive :
Demand increases with cost increase and the demand curve slopes upwards.
Our understanding is completely different with the understanding of the college administrative officer, Susan.
Our understanding is negative slope of the demand curve other than change in price of any other parameter will lead to shift in demand curve, either in or out.
If all the tuitions fees are increased, then financial aid needs to be sponsored by the 'state'. That will effect reserves which leads to the failure of the sole purpose of aids.
Our recommendation should be to tell the board members the long term effects of the increase in the tuitions fees and no financial aid will create.
