has a standard of 2 direct labor hours per unit. The standard wage rate of each worker is $32.50 per hour. In July, the company produced 4,770 units and paid workers $190,000 for a total of 8,940 direct labor hours. Compute the direct labor efficiency variance.
Answer:
$130 Favourable
Explanation:
Given the above information,
Standard hours = 2 × 4770 = 9,540
Actual hours = 8,940
Standard rate = $32.50
Then, Direct labor efficiency variance is computed as
= ( Standard hours allowed for production - Actual hours taken) × Standard rate per direct labor hour
= [(2 × 4,770) - 8,940] × $32.50
= [9,540 - 8,940] × $32.50
= 600 × $32.50
= $130 Favourable
Margaret Lindley paid $15,160 of interest on her $301,600 acquisition debt for her home (fair market value of $501,600), $4,160 of interest on her $30,160 home-equity debt, $1,160 of credit card interest, and $3,160 of margin interest for the purchase of stock. Assume that Margaret Lindley has $10,160 of interest income this year and no investment expenses. How much of the interest expense may she deduct this year
Answer:
Margaret Lindley
Margaret Lindley can deduct $12,320 of the interest expense this year.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Interest on $301,600 acquisition debt for her home = $15,160
Fair market value of home = $501,600
Interest on her $30,160 home-equity debt = $4,160
Credit card interest = $1,160
Margin interest expense = $3,160
Interest income received = $10,160
Deductible interest expense:
Interest on debt for her home = $15,160
Interest on home-equity debt = $4,160
Margin interest expense = $3,160
Interest income received = ($10,160)
Deductible interest expense = $12,320
b) Margaret cannot deduct her credit card interest because it is considered as a type of personal consumer finance interest. This type of interest expense is not tax-deductible.

The 1-year, 2-year. 3-year,and 4-year risk-free zero rates are 4%, 4.5%, 4.75%, and 5% with continuous compounding. What is the forward rate for the one year period beginning in two years
Answer:
5.25%
Explanation:
Mathematically, investing at the 3-year risk-free zero rate should be the same as investing at a 2-year risk-free zero rate and one-year forward rate beginning in two years as shown thus
(1+S3)^3=(1+S2)^2*(1+y2y1)^1
S3=4.75%
S2=4.5%
y2y1=unknown
(1+4.75%)^3=(1+4.5%)^2*(1+y2y1)
1+y2y1=(1+4.75%)^3/(1+4.5%)^2
y2y1=((1+4.75%)^3/(1+4.5%)^2)-1
y2y1=5.25%

Explanation:
In a closed economy, saving and investment must be equal, but this is not the case in an open economy. In the following problem, you will explore how saving and investment are connected to the international flow of capital and goods in an economy. Before delving into the relationship between these various components of an economy, you will be asked to recall some relationships between aggregate variables that will be useful in your analysis.
Recall the components that makeup GDP. National income (Y) equals total expenditure on the economy's output of goods and services. Thus, where C= consumption, I= investment, G =government purchases, X=exports, M =imports, and NX= net exports.
Y= _____
Also, national saving is the income of the nation that is left after paying for _____. Therefore, national saving (S) equals:
S=_____
Rearranging the previous equation and solving for Y yields, Y= _____ Plugging this into the original equation showing the various components of GDP results in the following relationship:
S=_____
Answer:
Y = C + I + G + NX
S = Y - C
S = I + G + NX
Explanation:
National Income Y = C + I + G + NX ; {where consumption, investment, government purchases, net exports ie exports - imports are corresponding expenditure of households, firms, government, rest of the world}
National Saving (S) is income (Y) left after paying for consumption (C) . So, S = Y - C
Using above equations, Y = C + S , Y = C + I + G + NX
C + S = C + I + G + NX
So, S = I + G + NX
If you have PhP 5,000.00, which of the following investment alternatives would provide the greatest ending wealth for your one-year investment?
7/10 percent compounded annually
7/10 percent compounded semi-annually
72/100 percent simple interest
7/10 percent compounded quarterly
NO FILES AND CHAIN MESSAGE OR ELSE I'LL REPORT YOUR ACCOUNT.
Answer:
7/10 percent compounded quarterly
Explanation:
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r/m)^mn
m = number of compounding
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
Simple interest = principal x time x interest rate
1. 5000 x (1.007) = 5035
2. 5000 x (1 + 0.007/2)^2 = 5035.06
5000 x (1 + 0.007/4)^4 = 5035.09
Colorado Rocky Cookie Company offers credit terms to its customers. At the end of 2021, accounts receivable totaled $625,000. The allowance method is used to account for uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncol- lectible accounts had a credit balance of $32,000 at the beginning of 2021 and $21,000 in receivables were writ- ten off during the year as uncollectible. Also, $1,200 in cash was received in December from a customer whose account previously had been written off. The company estimates bad debts by applying a percentage of 10% to accounts receivable at the end of the year.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record the write-off of receivables, the collection of $1,200 for previously written off receivables, and the year-end adjusting entry for bad debt expense.
2. How would accounts receivable be shown in the 2016 year-end balance sheet?
Answer:
1. 1. Dr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $21,000
Cr Accounts receivable $21,000
2. Dr Accounts receivable $1800
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $1800
3. Dr Cash $1,200
Cr Accounts receivable $1,200
4. Dr Bad debt expense $50,300
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $50,300
2.Current Assets
Accounts receivable (net) $562,500
Explanation:
1. Preparation of journal entries to record the write-off of receivables
1. Dr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $21,000
Cr Accounts receivable $21,000
(To record written off of accounts receivable)
2. Dr Accounts receivable $1800
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $1800
(To record reinstatement of account previously written off)
3. Dr Cash $1,200
Cr Accounts receivable $1,200
(To record collection of account previously written off)
4. Dr Bad debt expense $50,300
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $50,300
(To record bad debt expense for the year)
Working:
Estimated bad debts expense= $625,000*10%= $62,500
Bad debt expense for the year= $32,000-21000+1200-62,500= $50,300
2. Calculation to determine How would accounts receivable be shown in the 2016 year-end balance sheet
Using this formula
Accounts receivable (net) = Beginning balance-Estimated bad debts expense
Let plug in the formula
Accounts receivable (net)= $625,000-($625,000*10%)
Accounts receivable (net)=$625,000 -$62,500
Accounts receivable (net)=$562,500
Therefore the accounts receivable be shown in the 2016 year-end balance sheet as:

ack purchased 200 shares of Apple stock earlier this month at the price of $210 per share. Apple stock is trading at $218 today and will pay a dividend of $2/share with tomorrow being the ex-date. Jack faces an ordinary income tax rate of 35% and a capital gain tax rate of 18.8%. How much unrealized capital gains will he have after the dividend payment
Answer:
The amount of unrealized capital gains he will have after the dividend payment is $1,200.
Explanation:
Apple stock price per share today = $218
Dividend per share = $2
Apple stock ex-date price per share = Apple stock price per share today - Dividend per share = $218 - $2 = $216
Unrealized capital gains = Number of Apple stock shares purchased * (Apple stock ex-date price per share - Price per share at which Apple stock shares were purchased) = 200 * ($216 - $210) = 200 * $6 = $1,200
Therefore, the amount of unrealized capital gains he will have after the dividend payment is $1,200.
Ahsan Company makes 60,000 units per year of a part it uses in the products it manufactures. The unit product cost of this part is computed as follows: Direct materials $12.60 Direct labor 17.20 Variable manufacturing overhead 4.10 Fixed manufacturing overhead 15.00 Unit product cost $48.90 An outside supplier has offered to sell the company all of these parts it needs for $69.70 a unit. If the company accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to make the part could be used to make more units of a product that is in high demand. The additional contribution margin on this other product would be $319,600 per year. If the part were purchased from the outside supplier, all of the direct labor cost of the part would be avoided. However, $4.30 of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost being applied to the part would continue even if the part were purchased from the outside supplier. This fixed manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to the company's remaining products.

(a) Determine the fixed and variable cost components using the high-low method.
(b) What electricity cost does the cost equation estimate for a level of activity of 450 machine hours?
(c) What electricity cost does the cost equation estimate for a level of activity of 750 machine hours?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
January $2,650 200
February 3,100 320
March 3,570 450
April 4,750 695
May 3,160 500
June 4,910 750
July 4,130 630
August 3,810 580
September 5,060 680
October 4,390 610
November 3,290 320
December 8,920 770
To calculate the variable and fixed components using the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (8,920 - 2,650) / (770 - 200)
Variable cost per unit= $11
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 8,920 - (11*770)
Fixed costs= $450
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 2,650 - (11*200)
Fixed costs= $450
Now, the total cost if the machine hours equals 450:
Total cost= 11*450 + 450= $5,400
Finally, 750 hours:
Total cost= 11*750 + 450= $8,700
Skip and Trace decide to start a business. They sign a partnership agreement providing that Skip will contribute $6,000 toward the necessary $10,000 in start-up capital and Trace will contribute $4,000. If the agreement is silent as to management and profits, Skip should receive:
Answer: 50% of the profit and share equal management.
Explanation:
Since the agreement is silent as to management and profits, Skip should receive 50% of the profit and share equal management.
It should be noted that when profit sharing and the management related isn't defined, profits and management will be divided equally among the partners. Therefore, in this case, profit will be shared equally.
You wish to earn a return of 13% on each of two stocks, X and Y. Stock X is expected to pay a dividend of $3 in the upcoming year while Stock Y is expected to pay a dividend of $4 in the upcoming year. The expected growth rate of dividends for both stocks is 7%. The intrinsic value of stock X______
a. cannot be calculated without knowing the market rate of return
b. will be greater than the intrinsic value of stock Y
c. will be the same as the intrinsic value of stock Y
d. will be less than the intrinsic value of stock Y
e. none of the above is a correct answer.
Answer: D. will be less than the intrinsic value of stock Y
Explanation:
Based on the information given above, the intrinsic value of Stock X will be calculated thus:
D1 = Dividend in next year = $3
g = growth rate = 7%
r = = 13%
Therefore, intrinsic value of Stock X will be:
= D1 / (r-g)
= 3 / (13% - 7%)
= 3/6%
= 3 / 0.06
= $50
Therefore, the intrinsic value of stock X is $50.
Intrinsic value of Stock Y will b calculated thus:
D1 = $4
g = 7%
r = 13%
Intrinsic value of Stock Y will be:
= D1 / (r-g)
= 4 / (13% - 7%)
= 4/6%
= 4 / 0.06
= 66.67
Intrinsic value of Stock Y is $66.67
Therefore, the intrinsic value of Stock X will be less than the intrinsic value of Stock Y

Petty Cash Fund Entries
Journalize the entries to record the following:
Check No. 12-375 is issued to establish a petty cash fund of $500.
The amount of cash in the petty cash fund is now $40. Check No. 12-476 is issued to replenish the fund, based on the following summary of petty cash receipts: office supplies, $212; miscellaneous selling expense, $156; miscellaneous administrative expense, $61. (Because the amount of the check to replenish the fund plus the balance in the fund do not equal $500, record the discrepancy in the cash short and over account.)

he following materials standards have been established for a particular product: Standard quantity per unit of output 5.0 meters Standard price $18.90 per meter The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual materials purchased 8,500 meters Actual cost of materials purchased $170,000 Actual materials used in production 8,000 meters Actual output 1,570 units What is the materials price variance for the month
Answer:
the material price variance is $9,350 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the material price variance is shown below
Materials Price Variance
= (Standard price - Actual price) ×Actual quantity
= ($18.90 - $170,000 ÷ 8,500) × 8,500
= ($18.90 - $20) × 8,500
= $9,350 Unfavorable
hence, the material price variance is $9,350 unfavorable
Management team of Wolverine Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. They believe that new equipment is more efficient and would result in cost savings. Management estimates that the cost savings from the new equipment would result in an annual increase in net income of $200,000. The new equipment will have an initial cost of $1,200,000 and have an 8 year life. The salvage value of the new equipment is estimated to be $200,000. The hurdle rate is 10%. Ignore income taxes.
a. What is the accounting rate of return?
b. What is the payback period?
c. What is the net present value?
d. What would the net present value be with a 15% hurdle rate?
Answer:
Wolverine Corp.
a. The accounting rate of return = 50%
b. The payback period = 6 years ($200,000 * 6)
c. The net present value = ($39,600)
d. The net present value at 15% = ($237,200)
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Initial investment cost in new equipment = $1,200,000
Annual incremental net income from cost savings = $200,000
Salvage value of the new equipment = $200,000
Estimated useful life of equipment = 8 years
Hurdle rate = 10%
a. Accounting rate of return = (($200,000 * 8 + $200,000) - $1,200,000)/$1,200,000
= ($1,800,000 - $1,200,00)/$1,200,000
= $600,000/$1,200,000 * 100 = 50%
NPV at 10% hurdle rate:
Initial investment = $1,200,000 * 1 = $1,200,000
Annual incremental savings:
= $200,000 * 5.335 = $1,067,000
Salvage value = $200,000 * 0.467 93,400
Total benefits $1,160,400
NPV = ($39,600)
NPV at 15% hurdle rate:
Initial investment = $1,200,000 * 1 = $1,200,000
Annual incremental savings:
= $200,000 * 4.487 = $897,400
Salvage value = $200,000 * 0.327 65,400
Total benefits $962,800
NPV = ($237,200)
