Answer:
$42,700 cash is available for distribution
Explanation:
In order to calculate the cash available for sharing, we will first identify the debit and credit transactions. Debit transactions are expenditures, while credit transactions are incomes, hence we need to calculate the difference between the income and the expenditure.
Available cash = Everett (credit) - Miguel (debit) + Ramona (credit)
Available cash = 52,800 - 47,500 + 37,400 = $42,700
Therefore $42,700 is available in cash for distribution to the partners
Bob's lawn-mowing service is a profit-maximizing, competitive firm. Bob mows lawns for $30 each. His total cost each day is $250, of which $50 is a fixed cost. He mows 5 lawns a day. In the short run, Bob should_________ . In the long run, Bob should___________ the industry.
Answer:
In this case, the unitary variable cost is higher than the selling price. In the short run, Bob should leave the industry.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Earning a day= 30*5= $150
Unitary variable cost= (250 - 50)/5= $40
Fixed costs= $50
The general rule is that if the selling price is higher than the unitary variable cost, in the short run the company should continue operations. If this situation continues, in the long run, the company should stop operations.
In this case, the unitary variable cost is higher than the selling price. In the short run, Bob should leave the industry.
1) Using the average cost method, compute the equivalent units of production in each of the following cases:
A) Units started in production during the month, 72,000; units completed and transferred, 52,800; and units in process at the end of the month (100% complete as to materials; 60% complete as to conversion), 19,200. (There was no beginning inventory.
B) Units in process at the beginning of the month (100% complete as to materials; 30% complete as to conversion), 12,000; units started during the month, 48,000; and units in process at the end of the month (100% complete as to materials; 40% complete as to conversion), 24,000.
2) In Department D, materials are added uniformly throughout processing. The beginning inventory was considered 80% complete, as was the ending inventory. Assume that there were 6,000 units in the beginning inventory and 20,000 in the ending inventory, and that 80,000 units were completed and transferred out of Department D. What are the equivalent units for the period using the average cost method?
3) If in question 2 the total costs charged to the department amounted to $960,000, including the $48,000 cost of the beginning inventory, what is the cost of the units completed and transferred out?
Answer:
1. the equivalent units of production
A. Materials = 72,000 units Conversion = 64,320 units
B. Materials = 60,000 units Conversion = 45,600 units
2. Materials = 45,600 units
3. $ 1,684,000
Explanation:
1. the equivalent units of production
The Concept of Equivalent Units of Production Measures the number of units completed to the extend of inputs introduced in the process
A.
Materials
units completed and transferred (52,800×100%) = 52,800
units in Ending Work In Process (19,200 × 100%) = 19,200
Total equivalent units of production = 72,000
Conversion
units completed and transferred (52,800×100%) = 52,800
units in Ending Work In Process (19,200 × 60%) = 11,520
Total equivalent units of production = 64,320
B.
First Determine the number of units completed and transferred.
units completed and transferred = 12,000 + 48,000 - 24,000
= 36,000
Materials
units completed and transferred (36,000×100%) = 36,000
units in Ending Work In Process (24,000 × 100%) = 24,000
Total equivalent units of production = 60,000
Conversion
units completed and transferred (36,000×100%) = 36,000
units in Ending Work In Process (24,000 × 40%) = 9,600
Total equivalent units of production = 45,600
2. the equivalent units of production
Materials
units completed and transferred (80,000×100%) = 80,000
units in Ending Work In Process (20,000 × 80%) = 16,000
Total equivalent units of production = 45,600
3. the cost of the units completed
First Calculate the cost per equivalent of production
cost per equivalent = Total Cost / Total Equivalent units
= $960,000 / 45,600
= $21.05
Then , calculate the cost of the units completed and transferred out
cost of the units completed and transferred = $21.05 × 80,000
= $ 1,684,000
Jarrett Baker is the founder of an enterprise software company located in Chevy Chase, Maryland. By looking at the income statements for Jarrett’s business over the past 3 years, you see that its working capital has declined from $42,400 in 2012 to $17,900 in 2013 to $3,100 in 2014. If this trend continues, in what ways could it jeopardize the future of Jarrett’s business?
Answer and Explanation:
In this particular case, the working capital continues to fall and hits a value below zero otherwise the business would have a negative cash flow.
Company's assets are below its liabilities which including its current working capital would not be able to manage its debts. The Company would be faced with extreme difficulty in paying back its creditors.
If, as in the case at hand , the company continues to operate in low working capital and work capital declines over time, the company can encounter extremely serious financial problems.
Following Effects may include declining revenue from purchases, non-inventory management, or issues with the specific total accounts receivable.
If the interest rate in the United Kingdom is 8 percent, the interest rate in the United States is 10 percent, the spot exchange rate is $1.75/£1, and interest rate parity holds, what must be the one-year forward exchange rate?
Answer:
The answer is $1.78 / £1
Explanation:
Solution
Given that
Interest rate of United kingdom = 8%
Interest rate of United States =10%
Spot exchange rate =$1.75£1
The next step is to find the one year forward rate of exchange
Thus
Forward Rate = S₀ * [ ( 1 + Rus) / ( 1 + RE) ]
=$ 1.75 * ( ( 1 + 10%) / ( 1 + 8%) )
$1.78
Therefore, the forward exchange rate is $ 1.78 / £1
The company has an opportunity to sell 40,000 additional units at $12 per unit. The additional sales would not affect its current expected sales. Direct materials and labor costs per unit would be the same for the additional units as they are for the regular units. However, the additional volume would create the following incremental costs: (1) total overhead would increase by 16% and (2) administrative expenses would increase by $172,000.
Calculate the combined total net income if the company accepts the offer to sell additional units at the reduced price of $13 per unit.
Answer:
$1,576,000
Explanation:
The computation of the combined total net income is shown below:

According to the Phillips curve, policymakers could reduce both the inflation rate and the unemployment rate by Group of answer choices increasing the money supply. raising taxes. increasing government expenditures None of the other answers is correct
Answer:
None of the other answers is correct.
Explanation:
Williams A. Phillips was a notable economist born in New Zealand. Phillips wrote a famous article titled "The Relation between Unemployment and the Rate of Change of Money Wage Rates in the United Kingdom, 1861-1957" published in 1958 by Economica. In the article, he used data for the United Kingdom (U.K) to illustrate on a graph, a negative or inverse relationship between the rate of change of employee wages in the U.K and the unemployment rate in the United Kingdom (U.K).
Consequently, using the Phillips curve it is practically impossible for policymakers to reduce both the inflation rate and the unemployment rate because as the inflation rate decreases; the unemployment rate increases and vice-versa.
However, according to the Phillips curve, policymakers can reduce inflation and increase unemployment if aggregate demand is contracted.
Lynn, a company owner, looks at her financial statements. She wants to know how much the cash balance contributed to total assets on the balance sheet. What would you suggest
Answer:
conduct a vertical financial analysis using a total from the balance sheet
Explanation:
Based on what exactly Lynn wants, the best suggestion for her in this scenario would be to conduct a vertical financial analysis using a total from the balance sheet. This is a method of financial statement analysis in which each line item is listed as a percentage of a base figure within the statement. Doing so will give her the percentage that each asset contributed to the total balance sheet.
Morrow Company uses the high-low method to estimate the cost function. The information for 2020 is provided below: Machine-hours Labor Costs Highest observation of cost driver 900 $36,000 Lowest observation of cost driver 100 $14,000 What is the estimated total cost when 450 machine-hours are used
Answer:
Total cost at 450 machine hours = $23625
Explanation:
The high-low method is used to calculate the variable cost per unit element in a mixed cost. A mixed cost is a cost which is made up of both the fixed and the variable cost. The formula for variable cost per unit is,
Variable cost per unit = (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost) / (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit = (36000 - 14000) / (900 - 100)
Variable cost per unit = $27.5
Thus, the fixed element is = 36000 - (27.5 * 900)
Fixed cost element = $11250
Thus, the cost equation is,
Total cost = 27.5x + 11250
Where x is the number of machine hours.
Total cost at 450 machine hours = 27.5 * 450 + 11250
Total cost at 450 machine hours = $23625
Expenses for a Pizza restaurant include raw material for pizza at $4.00 per slice, $116.00 as monthly rental and $45.00 monthly as insurance. Lost sale expense is considered to be $4.00 per unhappy customer. Leftover Pizza can be sold for $3. The restaurant is open 25 days in a month. Today the restaurant prepared 200.00 pizza slices and sells them for $10.00/slice. There was a party at a nearby office so the demand for pizza went up to 212.00 slices. How much profit did the restaurant earn today
Answer:
The restaurant earned a profit of $1145.56 which is approximately $1146
Explanation:
the formula is given as:
Q x (sale price – material cost) – ( rental + insurance)/day - loss
Q = 200
Sale price = $10
Material cost = $4
rental = $116
insurance = $45
lost sale expense = $4
day = 25
increased demand = 212
= 200(10 - 4) - (116 + 45)/25 - (212 - 200)4
= 200(6) - 6.44 - 48
= 1200 - 6.44 - 48
= $1145.56
This is approximately $1146

The traditional short-run Phillips curve implies a powerful role for monetary policy. According to the theory, place the events in order based on what happens when the central bank unexpectedly expands the money supply.
a. the economy is in equiblirium at full employment (u=u)
b. the central bank injects new money into the money supply
c. aggerate demand increases
d. the inflation rate rises and the unemployment rate falls to a new equilibrium
Answer: A -> B -> C -> D
Explanation:
The Short Run Phillips Curve holds that in the short run, there is an inverse relationship between Unemployment and inflation because there is a trade-off between the two. As one rises, the other falls.
The sequence of events is,
At first, the Economy is in Equilibrium at u=u*.
The Central Bank then embarks on Expansionary Monetary policy and injects money into the economy. This will have the effect of putting more money into people's pockets.
As this happens, people will then have more money to buy more goods and services which they will. This is a rise in Aggregate Demand in the economy.
As Aggregate Demand rises, the Economic equation kicks in which is that the higher the demand, the higher the price. This increase will therefore lead to an increase in price levels which is inflation. The Unemployment rate will then fall because as the Phillips Curve shows, Unemployment falls as inflation rises.
Consider the following activities that take place in a veterinary clinic. (a.) Cleaning cages. (b.) Heating and air conditioning the clinic. (c.) Sending blood work to a lab. (d.) Dispensing medicine. Which of the following statements is true? A. Sending blood work to a lab is a facility level activity. B. Dispensing medicine is a facility level activity. C. Service entities cannot use ABC for overhead allocation. D. Heating and air conditioning the clinic is a facility level activity. E. Cleaning cages is a facility level activity
Answer: D. Heating and air conditioning the clinic is a facility level activity.
Explanation:
Facility Level Activities affect the entire operations/ facility of a firm and as such cannot be apportioned or traced to the individual products that the company makes. They are thus fixed and do not vary with production level.
From the above options, Heating and Air Conditioning the clinic affects the entire facility and cannot be apportioned to the services that the veterinary clinic offers. As such it is indeed a Facility Level Activity.
The opening balance of Company A is 25,000, and the repayment is scheduled for 1,000 per month at an annual interest rate of 5%. Use the average debt balance to calculate the interest payment. The closing balance of debt at the end of the month is _____ and the interest payment is _____.
Answer:
Closing balance of debt at the end of the month = $24,000
Interest payment = $102.08
Explanation:
The computation of closing balance of debt at the end of the month and the interest payment is shown below:-
Closing balance of debt at the end of the month = Opening balance of company A - Scheduled Repayment per month
= $25,000 - $1,000
= $24,000
Interest payment = Average Debt × Annual interest rate × 12 months
= (($25,000 + $24,000) ÷ 2) × 0.05 ÷ 12 months
= $102.08
Therefore we have applied the above formulas.
Your uncle lends you $2,000 less $100 (interest at 5 percent), and you receive $1,900. Use the APR formula to find the true annual percentage rate. Assume you repay the entire loan in one year
Answer:
APR =5.263%
Explanation:
Computation of the true annual percentage rate
Using the APR formula to find the true annual percentage rate
APR=(2 × n × I) / [P × (N + 1)]
Hence;
APR= (2 × 1 × $100) / [$1,900 × (1 + 1)]
APR=$200/($1,900×2)
APR=$200/$3,800
APR= 0.05263 ×100
APR =5.263%
Therefore the true annual percentage rate using the APR formula will be 5.263%
Suppose only two airlines, United and Delta provide flights between Atlanta and Greenville. Both firms must choose whether to advertise or not advertise.The advertising straategies with corresponding profits are depicted in the payoff matrix. United Aitlines profits are in blue and Deltas Airlines are in red.United Airlines dominant strategy is advertise or not advertise ( choose one),and Delta donminant strategy is to advertise or not advertise (choose ones)What is the Nash equilibrium for this game? (choose one)a) United will choose to advertise and Delta will choose not to advertiseb) United will choose not to advertise and Delta will choose to advertisec) United and Delta will both choose to advertised) United and Delta will both choose not to advertise
Answer and Explanation:
(1) A dominant strategy is a strategy selected by one player regardless of the other player 's strategy.
According to the question
United dominant strategy is to Advertise, as it contains higher payoff ($9,000 > $1,000 and $16,000 > $11,000).
While on the other hand, Delta dominant strategy is to Advertise, as it contains higher payoff ($9,000 > $1,000 and $16,000 > $11,000).
(2) If Delta advertises, the best option for United is to advertise as the payout is higher($9,000 > $1,000).
If Delta does not advertise, the better option for United is to advertise as the payoff is higher($16,000 > $11,000).
The best strategy for Delta as United Advertises is to advertise because the payoff is higher ($9,000 > $1,000).
If United doesn't advertise, the best strategy for Delta is to advertise as the payoff is higher($16,000 > $11,000).
Hence Nash equilibrium is: (United Advertises, Delta Advertises)

Ginny currently earns a (real or nominal) wage of $12.00 per hour; in other words, the amount of her paycheck each week is $12.00 per hour times the number of hours she works. Suppose the price of sparkling water is $2.50 per gallon; in this case, Ginny (real or nominal) wage, in terms of the amount of sparkling water she can buy with her paycheck, is gallons of sparkling water per hour. When workers and firms negotiate compensation packages, they have expectations about the price level (and changes in the price level) and agree on a (real or nominal) wage with those expectations in mind. If the price level turns out to be higher than expected, a worker's (real or nominal) wage is than both the worker and employer expected when they agreed to the wage.
Ginny and her employer both expected inflation to be 4% between 2012 and 2013, so they agreed, in a two-year contract, that she would earn $12.00 per hour in 2012 and $12.48 per hour in 2013. However, suppose inflation between 2012 and 2013 actually turned out to be 5%, not 4%. For example, suppose the price of apple juice rose from $2.00 per gallon to $2.10 per gallon. This means that between 2012 and 2013, Ginny's nominal wage by___________ % , and her real wage by approximately____________ .
Answer:
since we are using this year as our base year, Ginny's real and nominal wage is $12 per hour
price of sparkling water $2.50 per gallon
Ginny can buy 4.8 gallons of sparkling water per hour of work
If the price level turns out to be higher than expected, a worker's real wage is LOWER than both the worker and employer expected when they agreed to the wage.
Ginny and her employer both expected inflation to be 4% between 2012 and 2013, so they agreed, in a two-year contract, that she would earn $12.00 per hour in 2012 and $12.48 per hour in 2013. However, suppose inflation between 2012 and 2013 actually turned out to be 5%, not 4%. This means that between 2012 and 2013, Ginny's nominal wage INCREASED by 4%, and her real wage by DECREASED BY approximately 0.92%.
Ginny's real wage in 2013 = $12.48 / 1.05 = $11.89
it decreased by ($11.89 - $12) / $12 = -0.92%

Required:
Compute cost of goods manufactured $____________________
Answer:
The cost of goods manufactured is $557,300
Explanation:
In order to calculate the cost of goods manufactured we would have to make the following calculation:
cost of goods manufactured=Work in process inventory 1/1+Total manufacturing costs-Work in process 12/31
Work in process inventory 1/1)= $13,500
Total manufacturing costs=Direct materials used+Direct labor+Manufacturing overhead
Total manufacturing costs=166000+220000+180000=$566,000
Work in process 12/31=$22,200
Cost of goods manufactured=$13,500 +$566,000 -$22,200
Cost of goods manufactured= $557,300
The cost of goods manufactured is $557,300

During 2013, $600,000 of raw materials were purchased, direct labor costs amounted to $500,000, and manufacturing overhead incurred was $480,000.
To calculate the cost of goods manufactured, we need to use the following formula:
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials used + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
cost of goods manufactured= 300,000 + (310,000 + 600,000 - 260,000) + 500,000 + 480,000 - 160,000
cost of goods manufactured= $1,770,000

Kanye Company is evaluating the purchase of a rebuilt spot-welding machine to be used in the manufacture of a new product. The machine will cost $176,000, has an estimated useful life of 7 years, a salvage value of zero, and will increase net annual cash flows by $35,000.
What is its approximate internal rate of return?
Answer:
i think the answer218
Explanation:
if you add 176.000+35.000=211+7=218 you get the right answer
The approximate internal rate of return is 176.000+35.000=211+7=218. From calculating the cost and salvage value we get the internal rate of return.
What is internal rate of return?In financial analysis, the internal rate of return (IRR) is a statistic used to calculate the profitability of possible investments. IRR is a discount rate that, in a discounted cash flow analysis, reduces all cash flows' net present values (NPV) to zero. The same formula is used for NPV calculations and IRR calculations.
A useful tool for comparing investments is the internal rate of return (IRR), which is the interest rate at which the sum of all cash flows equals zero. If we substitute 13.92% for the 8% in the aforementioned case, NPV will be zero, and that represents your IRR. IRR is therefore defined as the discount rate at which a project's NPV equals zero.
IRR can be used to rank a variety of potential investments or projects on a pretty even basis because it is consistent for investments of all types. Generally speaking, the investment with the highest IRR would be regarded as the best when comparing options with other similar attributes.

Mr. Thano, age 47, withdrew $22,000 from his employer-sponsored qualified retirement plan to pay for his daughter's wedding. Compute the tax cost of the withdrawal if Mr. Thano has a 24% marginal tax rate on ordinary income. Tax Cost is_____
Answer:
$7,480
Explanation:
Mr Thano withdrew $22,000 at the age of 47
Marginal Tax rate= 24%
At the age of 47 means that the withdraw was made prematurely. Immature withdrawal of retirement plans means withdrawal made before the age of 60-65 years depending on the Country Policy
Hence, Tax Cost = 24% * 22,000
Tax cost = 5,280.

10% * 22000 = 2,200.
In total, the tax cost on the withdrawal of $22,000 is = $5,280 + $2,200 = $7,480
