Answer:
The change in the dollar amount of inventory is $200 due to change in the inventory costing method.
Explanation:
The variable cost per unit is $6.00 while the fixed cost per unit is $2.00
Variable cost per unit = $6.00
Absorption cost pet units = $8.00
Total cost under absorption costing = Absorption cost per unit / number of units in ending inventory
Total absorption cost = $8.00 × 100 = $800
Total cost under variable cost = Variable cost per unit × number of units in ending inventory
Total variable cost = $6.00 × 100 = $600
Change in cost = Total absorption cost - Total variable cost
Change in cost = $800 - $600 = $200
Sorin Incorporated, a company that produces and sells a single product, has provided its contribution format income statement for January. Sales (4,000 units) $ 112,000 Variable expenses 47,040 Contribution margin 64,960 Fixed expenses 46,800 Net operating income $ 18,160 If the company sells 4,700 units, its total contribution margin should be closest to: (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Total contribution margin= $76,328
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= 64,960 / 4,000
Unitary contribution margin= $16.24
Now, the total contribution margin for 4,700 units:
Total contribution margin= 16.24*4,700
Total contribution margin= $76,328
Dehner Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on the following data: Total direct labor-hours 47,000 Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 202,100 Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour $ 2.00 Recently, Job P951 was completed with the following characteristics: Number of units in the job 50 Total direct labor-hours 100 Direct materials $ 850 Direct labor cost $ 4,700 The total job cost for Job P951 is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Total cost= $6,180
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (202,100/47,000) + 2
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $6.3 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 6.3*100
Allocated MOH= 630
Finally, the total cost:
Total cost= 850 + 4,700 + 630
Total cost= $6,180
Nattel Corp. issues 10,000, $1,000 face amount bonds at 104. Each bond can be converted into 25 shares of no-par common stock. Margarita, Inc., purchased 2,500 of the bonds and converts them after 2 years. At that time, the balance in the premium on bond investment is $75,000. Margarita should recognize this conversion by debiting investment in common stock for
Answer: $2,575,000
Explanation:
The value of the bonds purchased is:
= 2,500 * 1,000
= $2,500,000
There is a premium on the bon investment so the net value of the bonds is:
= 2,500,000 + 75,000
= $2,575,000
This is the amount that will be converted to common stock and so should be debited to the investment in common stock.

Marketing mix can be defined as the choices about product attributes, pricing, distribution, and communication strategy that a company blends and offer its targeted markets (customers) so as to build and maintain a desired response.
Generally, a marketing mix is made up of the four (4) Ps;
1. Products: this is typically the goods and services that gives satisfaction to the customer's needs and wants. They are either tangible or intangible items.
2. Price: this represents the amount of money a customer buying goods and services are willing to pay for it.
3. Place: this represents the areas of distribution of these goods and services for easier access by the potential customers.
4. Promotions: for a good sales record or in order to increase the number of people buying a product and taking services, it is very important to have a good marketing communication such as advertising, sales promotion, direct marketing etc.
In this scenario, The Hopper Leg Winery from California's Sonoma Valley is trying to enter the wine market in France. To the company's surprise, it found that the France wine distribution channel was difficult to access as an outsider. Based on this, the market must have an exclusive distribution channel i.e the exclusive or unique rights to be a retailer for the supplier or manufacturer of the wine products.

On the basis of this information, the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:_____.
a. 80%.b. 70%.c. 60%.d. 40%.
Answer:
c. 60%.
Explanation:
Calculation for what the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:
First step is to calculate the Ending WIP
Ending WIP = 5,000 - 3,500
Ending WIP = 1,500 units
Now let calculate the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion using this formula
Ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completio
4,400 = 3,500 + (x% * 1,500)
4,400 = 3,500 + 15x
15x = 4,400 - 3,500
15x = 900
x = 900/15
x = 60%
Therefore the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:60%

A small town is considering paving paradise hotel to put up a parking lot. The land will cost $25,000 and the construction of the lot is estimated to be $150,000. Each year, costs associated with the parking lot are estimated to be $17,500. The income from the lot is expected to be $18,000 the first year and increase by $3,500 each year for the 12 year life of the lot. Determine the B/C ratio if interest rate is 12%. [4 points]
Answer:
0.71
Explanation:
The benefit cost ratio is used to determine the profitability of an investor. It is determined by dividing the present value of benefit by the present value of cost
Benefit cost ratio (BC) = present value of benefits / present value of costs
if BC is greater than 1, the project is profitable
If BC is less than 1, the project is not profitable
Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows
Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator
Present value of the benefits
Cash flow in year 1 = $18,000
Cash flow in year 2 = $18,000 + 3500 = $21500
Cash flow in year 3 = $18,000 + (3500 x 2) = $25,000
Cash flow in year 4 = $18,000 + (3500 x 3) = $28500
Cash flow in year 5 = $18,000 + (3500 x 4) = $32,000
Cash flow in year 6 = $18,000 + (3500 x 5) = $35,500
Cash flow in year 7 = $18,000 + (3500 x 6) = $39,000
Cash flow in year 8 = $18,000 + (3500 x 7) = $42,500
Cash flow in year 9 = $18,000 + (3500 x 8) = $46,000
Cash flow in year 10 = $18,000 + (3500 x 9) = $49500
Cash flow in year 11 = $18,000 + (3500 x 10) = $53,000
Cash flow in year 12 = $18,000 + (3500 x 11) = $56,500
I = 12 %
PV = $202,331.70
Present value of the cost
Cash flow in year 0 = $25,000 + $150,000 = $175,000
Cash flow in year 1 to 12 = $17,500.
I = 12 %
PV = $283,401.55
B/C ratio = $202,331.70 / $283,401.55 = 0.71
To find the PV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute

Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $210 and $172, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $8 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 128,000 units of each product. Its unit costs for each product at this level of activity are given below :
Alpha Beta
Direct materials $40 $24
Direct labor $38 $34
Variable manufacturing overhead $25 $23
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead $33 $36
Variable selling expenses $30 $26
Common fixed expenses $33 $28
Total cost per unit $199 $171
The company considers its traceable fixed manufacturing overhead to be avoidable, whereas its common fixed expenses are deemed unavoidable and have been allocated to products based on sales dollars.
Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 113,000 Alphas during the current year. One of Cane's sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 28,000 additional Alphas for a price of $152 per unit. If Cane accepts the customer's offer, it will decrease Alpha sales to regular customers by 13,000 units.
a. Calculate the incremental net operating income if the order is accepted. (Loss amount should be indicated with a minus sign.)
b. Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 108,000 Betas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much will profits increase or decrease?
c. Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 58,000 Betas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much will profits increase or decrease?
d. Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 78,000 Betas and 98,000 Alphas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, its sales representatives could increase sales of Alpha by 11,000 units. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much would profits increase or decrease?
e. Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 98,000 Alphas during the current year. A supplier has offered to manufacture and deliver 98,000 Alphas to Cane for a price of $152 per unit. If Cane buys 98,000 units from the supplier instead of making those units, how much will profits increase or decrease?
f. Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 73,000 Alphas during the current year. A supplier has offered to manufacture and deliver 73,000 Alphas to Cane for a price of $152 per unit. If Cane buys 73,000 units from the supplier instead of making those units, how much will profits increase or decrease?
Answer:
Cane Company
a) The incremental net operating income
= -$964,000
b. Profits would decrease by $3,132,000.
c. Profits would decrease by $1,682,000.
d. Profits would decrease by $1,778,000.
e. If Cane buys 98,000 units from the supplier instead of making those units, profits (savings) would increase by $588,000.
f. If Cane buys 73,000 units from the supplier instead of making those units, profits (savings) would increase by $438,000.

Total avoidable cost of 13,000 * $166 2,158,000 (572,000)
Operating loss if the order is accepted -$964,000
Beta:
Selling price per unit = $172
Incremental cost per unit = $143
Contribution per unit = $29
Total contribution margin = $3,132,000 ($29 * 108,000)
Total contribution margin = $1,682,000 ($29 * 58,000)
Total contribution margin = $2,262,000 ($29 * 78,000)
Increase in alpha contribution (484,000) ($44 * 11,000)
Loss of profit = $1,778,000
Cost price for outside supply = $152
Incremental unit cost (internal) $166
Difference in cost per unit $6
Profits increase from outside supplier = $6 * 98,000 = $588,000
Profits increase from outside supplier = $6 * 73,000 = $438,000

A large global automobile manufacturer is considering outsourcing the manufacturing of a solenoid used in the transmission of its SUVs. The company estimates that annual fixed costs of manufacturing the part in-house, which include equipment, maintenance, and manage-ment, amounts to $6 million. The variable costs of labor and material are $5.00 per unit. The company has an offer from a major subcontractor to produce the part for $8.00 per unit. However, the subcontractor wants the company to share in the costs of the equipment. The automobile company estimates that the total cost would be $4 million, which also includes management oversight for the new supply contact
Required:
a. How many solenoids would the automobile company need per year to make theâ in-house option leastâcostly?
b. What otherâ factors, besidesâ costs, should the automobile company consider before revising its supply chain forâ SUVs?
Answer:
A) The company must consume more than 666667 solenoids per year to make the in-house option least costly.
B) - quality of the product
- prompt delivery of products
- good communication & relationship with external parties.
Explanation:
A) Since if they use a subcontractor, they will share part of the equipment cost, Let the cross over point for manufacturing the solenoid in house and using a contractor be denoted as x.
Now, variable costs of labor and material are $5.00 per unit. This is 5x
Also from the subcontractor, production of the part is estimated at $8.00 per unit. This is 8x.
Thus;
6000000 + 5x = 4000000 + 8x
Rearranging, we have;
6000000 - 4000000 = 8x - 5x
3x = 2000000
x = 2000000/3
x ≈ 666667
Thus, the company must consume more than 666667 solenoids per year to make the in-house option least costly.
B) Apart from cost, other factors the company must consider are quality of the product, prompt delivery of products, good communication & relationship with stakeholders involved.
Required: a. Adams Company's production cycle starts in Department A. The following information is available for July: Units Work in process, July 1 (60% complete) 71,000 Started in July 360,000 Work in process, July 31 (20% complete) 39,000 Materials are added at the beginning of the process in Department A. Using the weighted-average method, what are the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs for the month of July, respectively
Answer:
materials = 431,000 units and
conversion = 399,800 units
Explanation:
Note that Adams Company uses weighted-average method. This means we calculate equivalent units of production on the number of physical units completed and transferred and units in ending inventory.
Step 1 : Determine units completed and transferred
Units completed and transferred = Opening Inventory + Units Started - Ending Inventory
= 71,000 + 360,000 - 39,000
= 392,000
Step 2 : Determine equivalent units of production
Materials
Units completed and transferred (392,000 x 100%) = 392,000
Units in ending inventory (39,000 x 100%) = 39,000
Total equivalent units of production = 431,000
Conversion
Units completed and transferred (392,000 x 100%) = 392,000
Units in ending inventory (39,000 x 20%) = 7,800
Total equivalent units of production = 399,800

Consider the following information about employment across industries in Chicago.
Number of employees Location Quotient
Manufacturing 58,435 0.559
Finance and insurance 102,751 1.825
Administrative and support 107,618 1.181
Educational services 9,379 1.566
Health care and social assistance 179,570 1.046
Arts, entertainment, and recreation 19,132 0.986
If there were a national downturn in these industries, which is likely to be most closely linked to the residential real estate market in Chicago?
A. Manufacturing
B. Finance and Insurance
C. Administrative and Support
D. Educational services
E. Health care and social assistance
F. Arts, entertainment, and recreation
G. None of the above.
Answer:
B. Finance and Insurance
Explanation:
The Location Quotient (LQ) value of finance and insurance is the highest (1.825) and its employment concentration (102,751) is higighesth as well although not the highest.
We know that when (LQ) is greater that 1, its indicates the high concentration in regional growth and opportunities as finance and insurance is concerned.
On the other hand lowest, (LQ) at manufacturing is less than 1 and the employment is also low (58,435), that indicates that manufacturing employment has less of a share of the total in regional growth and opportunities.
So, if there were a national downturn in these industries, Finance and Isurance is likely to be most closely linked to the residential real estate market in Chicago.

Rupesh wants to buy a new BMW priced at $54,000. He makes a down payment of 20% of the original price. He also trades-in his old car for $10,000. (This means he sells the old car to the dealer for $10,000). For the balance, Rupesh takes a 60-month car loan at an interest rate of 3.45%. What will be the approximate payment at the end of every month
Answer:
The approximate payment at the end of every month will be $603.22.
Explanation:
Since the payment is going to be made at the end of every month, this can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value or the balance = Price of BMW - Down payment - Old car sales amount = $54,000 - ($54,000 * 20%) - $10,000 = $33,200
P = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = Annual interest rate / 12 = 3.45% / 12 = 0.0345 /
12 = 0.002875
n = number of months = 60
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for P, we have:
$33,200 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.002875))^60) / 0.002875)
$33,200 = P * 55.0377058660197
P = $33,200 / 55.0377058660197
P = $603.22
Therefore, the approximate payment at the end of every month will be $603.22.
You just got a job and plan to save for the college expenses for your kids. You have a son and a daughter. Your son is 4 years old, and your daughter is only 1 year old. Both of them plan to go to a four-year college at the age of 18. The estimated college expense is about $40,000 per year. Assume you plan to invest into a portfolio that offers you return about 6% per year until your daughter is graduated from college. How much money do you need to save every year if your first saving is in one year
Answer:
$11,508.25
Explanation:
your son will start college in 14 years, and the present value of his college tuition = $40,000 x 3.4651 (PVIFA, 6%, 4 periods) = $138,604
your daughter will start college in 17 years, so you need in today's dollars $138,604
you will need to save enough money to cover both tuitions;
money required to cover your son's tuition = $138,604 / 21.015 (FVIFA, 6%, 14 periods) = $6,595.48
money required to cover your daughter's tuition = $138,604 / 28.213 (FVIFA, 6%, 14 periods) = $4,912.77
total annual savings = $11,508.25

2. The first payment is received on December 31, 2018, and interest is compounded annually.
3. The first payment is received on December 31, 2019, and interest is compounded quarterly.
Answer:
1. Present value on December 31, 2018 = $18,023.88
2. Present value on December 31, 2018 = $20,186.75
3. Present value on December 31, 2018 = $17,780.59
Explanation:
1. The first payment is received on December 31, 2019, and interest is compounded annually.
This is an example of ordinary annuity. Therefore, the present value on December 31, 2018 can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = present value on December 31, 2018 = ?
P = Annual annuity = $5,000
r = Annual interest rate = 12%, or 0.12
n = number of years = 5
Substitute the values into equation (1), we have:
PV = $5,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.12))^5) / 0.12)
PV = $5,000 * 3.60477620234501
PV = $18,023.88
2. The first payment is received on December 31, 2018, and interest is compounded annually.
This is an example of annuity due. Therefore, the present value on December 31, 2018 can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an annuity due as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - [1 / (1+r))^n) / r) * (1+r) .................................. (2)
Where;
Where;
PV = present value on December 31, 2018 = ?
P = Annual annuity = $5,000
r = Annual interest rate = 12%, or 0.12
n = number of years = 5
Substitute the values into equation (1), we have:
PV = $5,000 * ((1 - [1 / (1+0.12))^5) / 0.12) * (1+0.12)
PV = $5,000 * 3.60477620234501 * 1.12
PV = $5,000 * 4.03734934662641
PV = $20,186.75
3. The first payment is received on December 31, 2019, and interest is compounded quarterly.
Note: See the calculation of the present value on December 31, 2018 in the attached excel file.
This is also an example of ordinary annuity.
