Answer:
under-applied with $738
Explanation:
If Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads, we have under-applied overheads.
and
If Applied Overheads > Actual Overheads, we have over-applied overheads.
From the question amounts for overheads are as follows :
Actual Overheads = $540,708 (given)
Applied Overheads = $540,708 / 21,980 hours x 21,950 hours = $539,970
Therefore,
Since Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads
Under-applied Overheads = $540,708 - $539,970 = $738
Conclusion :
Overhead at the end of the year was: under-applied with $738
Naylor Company had $153,300 of net income in 2016 when the selling price per unit was $150, the variable costs per unit were $90, 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 Naylor Company is under pressure from stockholders to increase net income by $65,200 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:
Naylor Company
1. The number of units sold in 2016 is:
= 12,152.
2. The number of units that would have to be sold in 2017 to reach the stockholders' desired profit level is:
= 13,238.
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 $155.37 in order to reach the stockholders' desired profit level.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Net income in 2016 = $153,300
Selling price per unit = $150
Variable costs per unit = $90
Contribution margin per unit = $60
Fixed costs = $575,800
Contribution margin = Fixed costs + Net income
= $575,800 + $153,300
= $729,100
Units sold = $729,100/$60 = 12,152
b) To increase net income by $65,200 in 2017, contribution margin will also increase by the same amount. Therefore, the total contribution margin = $794,300 ($729,100 + $65,200).
Units sold = $794,300/$60 = 13,238
c) The selling price will have to increase by $5.37 ($65,200/12,152) to $155.37.
g An investment bank agrees to underwrite an issue of 5 million shares of stock for Longard Corp. (1). If the investment bank underwrites the stock on a firm commitment basis, it agrees to pay $15 per share to Longard Corp. for the 5 million shares of stock. It can then sell those shares to the public for $20 per share. How much money does Longard Corp. receive
Answer:
Longard Corp.
The money that Longard Corp. receives is:
= $75 million.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Number of shares issued = 5 million
Investment bank underwriter pays per share to Longard Corp = $15
Stock price to the public = $20 per share
Total amount received from the underwriter = $75 million ($15 * 5 million)
b) The calculations show that the investment bank will eventually receive $100 million ($20 * 5 million) from the public offer. It then charges $5 per share (representing a total underwriting fee of $25 million). This is why it remits only $75 million to Longard Corp.
Leslie's Unique Clothing Stores offers a common stock that pays an annual dividend of $3.00 a share. The company has promised to maintain a constant dividend. How much are you willing to pay for one share of this stock if you want to earn a return of 15.80 percent on your equity investments
Answer:
You are willing to pay $18.99 for one share of this stock.
Explanation:
This can be calculated using the following formula:
P = d / r .............................. (1)
Where;
P = price per share = ?
d = annual dividend per share = $3.00
r = equity investments return = 15.80%, or 0.1580
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
P = $3.00 / 0.1580
P = $18.99
Therefore, you willing to pay $18.99 for one share of this stock.

A privately owned summer camp for youngsters has the following data for a 12-week session: Charge per camper Fixed costs Variable cost per camper Capacity $480 per week $192,000 per session $320 per week 200campers (a) Develop the mathematical relationships for total cost and total revenue. (b) What is the total number of campers that will allow the camp to just break even
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $192,000
Unitary variable cost= $320 per week
Selling price per unit= $480 per week
To calculate the total cost, we need to use the following formula:
Total cost= fixed costs + unitary variable cost*number of units
Total cost= 192,000 + 320*number of weeks
Now, the total revenue:
Total revenue= selling price per week*Number of weeks
Total revenue= 480*x
Finally, the break-even point in units:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 192,000 / (480 - 320)
Break-even point in units= 1,200 campers

Statute of frauds is used as a defense to a lawsuit and not as an offense. For example, S owns a lot that B wishes to purchase. They enter into a verbal contract whereby B will deliver $6,000 at noon on Friday to S, and S will provide B with the deed to the property. If either party breaches the contract for the sale of the real estate lot and is sued by the other party, the defendant may raise statute of frauds as a defense, saying that there is nothing in writing or signed by the defendant.
Required:
What is the result?
Answer:
Since both parties can breach the contract without fearing any penalty as a result of doing it, its execution will depend on the good will of both parties. It will also require a coordinated action where B hands out the money at the same time they are receiving the deed. If both things do not occur simultaneously, for example, S promises to deliver the deed the next day or B promises to pay the next day, they will not do it. For example, B pays the $5,000 and S decides to increase the price to $10,000. Or S gives the deed and B says that the agreed price was $1,000.

Hyde Boats purchased machinery on January 1 at a list price of $295,000, with credit terms 3/10, n/30. Payment was made within the discount period. Hyde Boats paid $17,700 sales tax on the machinery, and paid installation charges of $3,900. Hyde Boats also paid $15,900 to pour a concrete base that was necessary to place the machinery in service.
What is the total cost of the new machinery?
A. $332.500
B. $323.650
C. $307.750
D. $319.750
Answer:
Total purchase price= $323,650
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $295,000
Installation= $3,900
Concrete for installation= $15,900
The total cost of the machine includes the purchase price and all costs required to put it into operation. Taxes are part of the purchase cost.
First, we need to calculate the net cash discount:
Net discount= 295,000 * 0.03= $8,850
Now, the total purchase price:
Total purchase price= (295,000 - 8,850) + 17,700 + 3,900 + 15,900
Total purchase price= $323,650
Information concerning a product produced by Ender Company appears here: Sales price per unit $ 164 Variable cost per unit $ 94 Total annual fixed manufacturing and operating costs $ 434,000 Required Determine the following: Contribution margin per unit. Number of units that Ender must sell to break even. Sales level in units that Ender must reach to earn a profit of $182,000. Determine the margin of safety in units, sales dollars, and as a percentage.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the unitary contribution margin, we need to use the following formula:
Contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost
Contribution margin= 164 - 94
Contribution margin= $70
Now, to determine the break-even point in units and sales dollars, we need to use the following formulas:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 434,000 / 70
Break-even point in units= 6,200
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 434,000 / (70 / 164)
Break-even point (dollars)= $1,016,800
The desired profit is $182,000:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (434,000 + 182,000) / 70
Break-even point in units= 8,800
Finally, the margin of safety in units, sales dollars, and as a percentage:
Margin of safety (units)= (current sales level - break-even point)
Margin of safety (units)= 8,800 - 6,200
Margin of safety (units)= 2,600
Margin of safety (dollars)= (8,800*164) - 1,016,800
Margin of safety (dollars)= $426,400
Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level
Margin of safety ratio= 426,400 / 1,443,200
Margin of safety ratio= 0.295

Consider this data for Marston Manufacturing Company and use it to complete the table:
Selected Financial Data for
Marston Manufacturing Company
Average cash $57,813
Average accounts payable $320,000
Average accounts receivable $1,387,500
Average inventories $693,750
Average cash sales $4,625,000
Average credit sales $13,875,000
Average cost of goods sold $8,325,000
Average number of days per year 365 days
Inventory conversion period 30.42 days
Payables deferral period days
Receivables conversion period
Operating cycle 66.92 days
Cash conversion cycle 52.89 days
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Payable Deferral Period = 365 ÷ Payable turnove ratio
where,
Payables Turnover Ratio = Average Cost of Goods Sold ÷ Average Accounts Payable
= ($8,325,000 ÷ $320,000)
= 26.02
Now payable deferral period is
= 365 ÷ 26.02
= 14.02 days
And, the receivables conversion period is
= 365 ÷ receivable turnover ratio
where
Receivables Turnover Ratio = Average credit sales ÷ Average Accounts receivable
= ($13,875,000 ÷ $1,387,500)
= 10
Now receivable turnover period is
= 365 ÷ 10
= 36.50 days

Diz Co. is a U.S.-based MNC with net cash inflows of euros and net cash inflows of Swiss francs. These two currencies are highly correlated in their movements against the dollar. Yanta Co. is a U.S.-based MNC that has the same level of net cash flows in these currencies as Diz Co. except that its euros represent net cash outflows. Yanta Co has a higher exposure to exchange rate risk than Diz Co.
Required:
Which firm has a higher exposure to exchange rate risk? Why?
Answer:
Yanta Co. has a higher exposure to exchange rate risk than Diz Co.

Explanation:
a) Data and Analysis:
Diz Co. has net cash inflows of euros and net cash inflows of swiss francs
Yanta Co. has net cash outflows of euros and net cash inflows of swiss francs
b) Exposure to exchange rate risk or currency risk is the financial risk arising from fluctuations in the value of the US dollars against the Euro or Swiss Francs in which Diz Co. has some foreign assets while Yanta Co. has foreign obligations.

Under LIFO method, likewise the last entered inventory will be available for sale and the inventory at the end of period will be valued at the price at which the inventory first bought i.e $890, therefore the value amounts to 180 units*$890=$160200
Under Average cost method the effect of differential price is distributed over the quantity bough during a period so that the company remains in ineffective condition during the period from the price change
Average cost per unit= (129*$890 +172*$1340+ 172*$1440+129*$1140)/602 units
=$1229.29
and for the 180 units the value amounts to 180*$122.29=$221271.429
so, as per explanation given above, it is certain that the highest value will be in average cost method.
The correct option is - c. the average cost method.
On January 1, 2020, Castaway Corp. issued 5,000 shares of preferred stock ($15 par value) at $45 per share. Each share of preferred stock is redeemable at the option of the stockholder at $45 per share. On September 1, 2020, preferred shareholders holding 1,000 shares of preferred stock redeemed their stock.
The entry recorded by Castaway Corp. on September 1, 2020, would include the following:
A. No net change to stockholdersâ equity.
B. A decrease to retained earnings for $5,000.
C. A decrease to assets for $45,000.
D. No net change to preferred stock outstanding.
Answer: C. A decrease to assets for $45,000.
Explanation:
When shareholders redeem their stock, the company pays them for the redeemed stock at a certain price which in this case is $45.
The total cost of redemption is therefore:
= 45 * 1,000
= $45,000
The company uses cash to pay for this which is an asset. Assets will therefore reduce by $45,000 which is the amount of cash paid.
