Answer:
The depreciation expense for the second year is $22800
Explanation:
The double declining balance method is an accelerated form of allocating the depreciation expense to the asset. This method charges a high depreciation expense in the initial years of the estimated useful life of the asset and lower depreciation in the later years.
The formula to calculate the depreciation expense per year under this method is,
Depreciation expense = 2 * [ (Cost - Accumulated depreciation) / estimated useful life of the asset]
Double Declining Balance Method - Depreciation expense:
Year 1 = 2 * [ (95000 - 0) / 5]
Year 1 = $38000
Year 2 = 2 * [ (95000 - 38000) / 5]
Year 2 = $22800
When a company borrows $150 million during the year and also repays $120 million of debt, the company can disclose the $30 million net amount as excess of borrowings over re-payments in the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
Cash inflows and outflows for borrowing and repayment of debt are reported separately at gross amounts in the financial activities section of the cash flow statement.
When a company borrows $150 million during the year and also repays $120 million of debt. In this scenario, both amount of transaction (borrowing and repayment) will be reported separately at gross amount in the financial activities section of the cash flow statement.
Faucet Company reported the following information for 2008: October November December Budgeted sales $620,000 $580,000 $720,000 All sales are on credit. Customer amounts on account are collected 50% in the month of sale and 50% in the following month. How much cash will Faucet receive in November
Answer:
Cash receipt for the month of November is $600000
Explanation:
The receipt of the cash will be such that the sales made in a particular month will be calculated half in the month of sale and half in the next month. Thus, the cash receipt from the accounts receivables for the month of November will be,
Cash received from the October sales = 620000 * 0.5 = $310000
Cash received from the November sales = 580000 * 0.5 = $290000
Total cash receipt in the month of November will be,
Cash receipt - November = 310000 + 290000
Cash receipt - November = $600000

Steven has a typed copy of a contract, which he would like to have Thomas sign. Thomas, who needs glasses to read typing, doesn't want to sign until he has read the document, but Steven convinces Thomas to sign it anyway, because it is a "standard" contract for this type of situation. Is the contract which Thomas signed binding upon him?
Answer:
Yes, because he was negligent in not ascertaining its contents
Explanation:
Based on the information provided regarding the scenario at hand it can be said that Yes, this contract is binding upon Thomas because he was negligent in not ascertaining its contents. Each individual is responsible for completely reading and fully understanding the contents of the contract before they sign. Once an individual signs the contract it means that they fully agree with all that is specified in the contract and are held liable. Thomas should have waited until he had his glasses and read the contract before signing, regardless of what Steven had to say.
Which of the following is true about the leveraging effect? Under economic growth conditions, firms with relatively low financial leverage will have higher expected returns. Under economic growth conditions, firms with relatively more financial leverage will have higher expected returns.

At the beginning of the period, the Cutting Department budgeted direct labor of $136,000, direct materials of $150,000 and fixed factory overhead of $11,900 for 8,000 hours of production. The department actually completed 10,600 hours of production. The appropriate total budget for the department, assuming it uses flexible budgeting, is Round your final answer to the nearest dollar. Do not round interim calculations.
Answer:
Total cost under flexible budgeting is $390,850
Explanation:
Calculation of Standard direct labor Cost
Standard Direct labor Cost=Budgeted Labor cost/Budgeted hour of Production
=$136,000 / 8,000
=$17 per hour
Calculation of Standard material Cost
Standard material Cost = Budgeted material Cost /Budgeted hour of Production
=$150,000 / 8,000
=$18.75 per hour
Calculation of Total cost under flexible budgeting
Direct Material Cost = 10,600 * $18.75 = $198,750
Direct Labour Cost= 10,600 * 17 = $180,200
Fixed factory overhead= $11,900
Total budgeted cost $390,850
The following is a list of characteristics that describe a firm operating under monopolistic competition. Indicate whether these characteristics occur in the short run, the long run, or both.
a. The firm produces a differentiated product.
b. The firm maximizes profits.
c. The firm earns zero economic profit.
d. All factors of production (inputs) are variable.
Answer:
a. Both
b. Both
c. Long Run
d. Long Run
Explanation:
a. Differentiating products ensures that a Company's products have an edge in the market that could gain them more customers and hence increase sales. The company therefore will differentiate in both the Short and the long run to ensure that they improve sales and Profitability.
b. The company will always seek to maximize profits regardless of whether it is in the short run or the long run. Maximising profit ensures that the company does not waste resources and remains viable and sustainable.
c. When a company is making Economic profit in the short run it attracts competitors such that in the long run, these competitors will drive down the profit that the firms in the market are making until no firm is making Economic profit.
d. In the long run, all factors of production are variable. This means that even though production capacity could not be changed in the short run, in the long run this is no longer the case. A well known example of this is Facility. In the short run, a company cannot build a new facility to bolster production but in the long run it will be able to.
Webster's Discount Appliances expects sales of $12,000, $15,000, and $25,000 during April, May, and June (big sale in June). To build business, Webster let's all customers buy on credit, and all do so. In the past, 20% of Webster's Discount Appliances sales have been collected during the month of sale, 65% are collected the following month, and 15% the month after that. If this trend continues, what will be Webster's total cash collections in the month of June
Answer:
$16,550
Explanation:
The computation of total cash collections in the month of June is shown below:-
Total cash collections in the month of June = (June sales × Percentage of collection) + (May sales × Percentage) + (April × Percentage)
= ($25,000 × 20%) + ($15,000 × 65%) + ($12,000 × 15%)
= $5,000 + $9,750 + $1,800
= $16,550
So, for computing the total cash collections in the month of June we simply applied the above formula.

Assume the assembly division of Baxter Bicycles wants to buy 5,800 trailers per year from the trailer division. If the trailer division can sell all of the trailers it manufactures to outside customers, what price should be used on transfers between Baxter Bicycles's divisions
Answer: $104
Explanation:
The Trailer division has the capacity to sell ALL of its inventory to outside customers for a price of $104.
They will therefore transfer the trailers to the Assembly line at the same price of $104 that they charge outside customers because anything less would be a loss on profit that could have been made from selling the trailers outside.
This loss on profit would affect the entire Baxter Bicycles and not just the Trailer Division so it is better to sell and transfer at the same price.
Review the "Types of Distribution Channels" study material. Explain why the selection of distribution channels is essential to a successful marketing strategy. Provide an example of a well-known company's distribution channels and defend their choices. In replies to peers, agree or disagree with their assessment and justify your response.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although the question does not provide a specific text, we can say that the selection of distribution channels is essential to a successful marketing strategy because that is how companies deliver their products to consumers. This is of key importance due to the fact that there are numerous competitors selling the same or similar products so the company has to be precise and effective in delivering the product to match the client's expectations.
One good example of a successful company would be Underarmour. This Maryland company sells its products through direct distribution, uses intermediaries and brokers, has open many outlets where the company sells direct to the consumer, and also sells products through e-commerce portals. You can find Underarmour apparel in big chain stores, fashion stores, the internet, and sports stores.
Rodgers Inc. is imports paper from Shanghai China. In a typical transaction Rodgers receives a delivery of paper from the Chinese Company and pays the company in Yuan. In all transactions, the amounts and payments are set today, but all deliveries, payments, and revenues come 90 days later. How can Rodgers hedge its foreign currency risk
Answer:
Rodgers can hedge its foreign risk by using a Contract to buy Yuan in the futures market today at an agreed upon price in 90 days.
Explanation:
Solution
Since Rodgers receives a delivery of paper from the Chinese Company and pays the company in Yuan, so he has to hedge his exchange rate risk by buying or purchasing Yuan future contract for 90 days.
So, Rodgers Incorporation should make a contract to buy Yuan in the future market today at an agreed price in 90 days.

You purchase a bond with a coupon rate of 8.6 percent, a par value of $1,000, semiannual coupons, and a clean price of $860. If the next coupon payment is due in three months, what is the invoice price
Answer:
The answer is $881.5
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The accrued interest is refers to the payment (coupon) for the time with the fraction of the time that has exceed since the last coupon payment.
Since we have a semiannual coupon bond, the coupon payment for six months is 1/2 of the annual coupon payment.
Three months has exceeded since the last coupon payment.
So the accrued interest for the bond is given below:
Accrued Interest = $86/2 * 3/6
= $21.5
Thus
The price (dirty) = Clean Price + Accrued Interest
= $860 + $21.5
= $881.5
Therefore the invoice price is $881.5
Assume the profit margin is projected to increase to 9 percent while the dividend payout ratio remains constant. If sales increase by 12 percent, what is the projected total retained earnings (hint: add the additional RE onto the current RE)? Currently, the firm’s sales =$4,700, net income is $420, total assets=7890, dividends=125, A/P =790, LTD= 3130, and common stock=2780, and retained earnings =1190.
Answer:
The projected retained earnings are $1538.76
Explanation:
Profit margin=net income/sales
profit margin is 9%
sales growth rate is 12%
9%=net income/($4,700*(1+12%))
9%=net income/5264
9%*5264=net income
net income=$473.76
Projected total retained earnings=$1190+$473.76-$125=$1538.76
A company received a bank statement showing a balance of $78,000. Reconciling items included outstanding checks of $2,400 and a deposit in transit of $9,400. What is the company's adjusted bank balance
Answer:
Adjusted Bank Balance = $85,000
Explanation:
Adjustment of bank balance is a bank reconciliation procedure, that is used to match the amount in the bank statement with the amount in the company's balance sheet.
To adjust the bank balance, particulars that need to be subtracted or added to the bank statement balance has to be identified and treated accordingly.
For this example, the adjusted balance is calculated thus:
Adjusted bank balance = (Bank statement balance) - (outstanding checks) +(deposit in transit)
Adjusted Bank Balance = 78,000 - 2,400 + 9,400 = $85,000
Note:
outstanding checks are subtracted because they are payments to be made made by the company, representing a liability to the company (payer)
deposit in transit is an income to the company that has not been credited yet, but that will be credited.

We use 2,000 electric drills per year in our production process. The ordering cost for these is $100 per order and the Holding( carrying) cost is assumed to be 40% of the per unit cost. Each drill costs $78. What is the optimal quantity that would minimize the sum of Holding and Ordering costs.
Answer:
The Optimal Quantity to minimize Holding and Ordering Costs:
This is also known as the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ).
We can work it out using the EOQ formula.
The formula for EOQ is:
Q = √(2DS)/H
where:
Q=EOQ units
D=Demand in units (typically on an annual basis) = 2,000
S=Order cost (per purchase order) = $100
H=Holding costs (per unit, per year) = $31.20 ($78 x 40%)
Formula and Calculation of Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)
Q = √(2x2,000x $100)/$31.2
Q = √12,820.5 = 113.228 or 113 approximately.
Explanation:
EOQ is an important cash flow management tool. The formula assists a company to control the amount of cash tied up in inventory. For many companies, inventory is their largest asset. Companies hold enough inventory to meet customers' demand. Since EOQ minimizes the level of inventory, the cash savings can be used for some other business purposes or investments.
The goal of the EOQ formula is to identify the optimal number of product units to order. If achieved, a company can minimize its costs for buying, delivery, and storing units, including the costs from running out of inventory.
Clothing Emporium was organized on January 1, 2021. The firm was authorized to issue 100,000 shares of $5 par value common stock. During 2021, Clothing Emporium had the following transactions relating to stockholders’ equity: Issued 30,000 shares of common stock at $7 per share. Issued 20,000 shares of common stock at $8 per share. Reported a net income of $100,000. Paid dividends of $50,000. What is the total stockholders' equity at the end of 2021?
Answer:
The total stockholders' equity at the end of 2021 is $250,000
Explanation:
In order to calculate the total stockholders' equity at the end of 2021 we would have to calculate the transactions relating to stockholders’ equity times the $5 par value common stock as follows:
stockholders' equity at the end of 2021=Issue of 30,000 shares*$5+Issue of 20,000 shares*$5
stockholders' equity at the end of 2021=$150,000+$100,000
stockholders' equity at the end of 2021=$250,000
The total stockholders' equity at the end of 2021 is $250,000

Jerome is shopping for work supplies; he purchases 5 binders, 7 pens, and 3 reams of paper. The binders cost $4.50 each; the pens cost $1.10 each; and the reams of paper cost $4.25 each. The sales tax for his purchase is 7.75%. What is the total cost of Jerome’s purchase?
Answer:
$46.278625
Explanation:
5 blinder = 5 x $4.50 = $22.5
7 pens = 7 x $1.10 = $7.7
3reams =3 x $4.25 = $12.75
Total cost before sales tax= $42.95
Sales tax = $42.95 x 7.75% = $3.328625
Total cost after sales tax = $42.95 + $3.328625
Total cost after sales tax = $46.278625

Cash flow from Operating ActivitiesCash flow from Financing ActivitiesCash flow from Investing ActivitiesOn January 2, 2020, Bridgeport Company borrowed $174,000 from Lyon Country Bank. The terms of the loan agreement specified 4 equal annual payments at 4% annual interest. Compute the amount of each of these payments, assuming they begin on December 31, 2020.
Answer:
annual payment = $50,460
Explanation:
In order to solve this, we will use the formula for calculating simple interest on an invested amount over a period of time.
Simple interest = Principal × Rate × Time
Where:
Principal = $174,000
Rate = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04
Time = 4 years (4 annual payments)
∴ Simple interest = 174,000 × 0,04 × 4 = $27,840
Total amount to be paid = principal + interest
= 174,000 + 27,840 = $201,840
since 4 equal annual payments were made, the amount to be repaid is divided into 4. This is done as follows:
annual payments = 201,840 ÷ 4 = $50,460
Grand Garden is a luxury hotel with 165 suites. Its regular suite rate is $210 per night per suite. The hotel’s cost per night is $135 per suite and consists of the following.
Variable direct labor and materials cost $ 36
Fixed cost [($5,970,000/165 suites) ÷ 365 days] 99
Total cost per night per suite $ 135
The hotel manager received an offer to hold the local Bikers’ Club annual meeting at the hotel in March, which is the hotel’s low season with an occupancy rate of under 55%. The Bikers’ Club would reserve 45 suites for three nights if the hotel could offer a 55% discount, or a rate of $94 per night. The hotel manager is inclined to reject the offer because the cost per suite per night is $135.
Required:
Prepare an analysis of this offer for the hotel manager.
Answer:
rental price per night $210
variable direct labor and materials $36
fixed costs $5,970,000
assuming 100% occupancy rate during the whole year, fixed cost per unit = $99 per night
total cost per night $135
assuming a 55% occupancy rate = 90.75 rooms per night
fixed costs are equal in both scenarios, so they are not relevant
alternative A alternative B differential
not rent rent to bikers amount
rental revenue $19,057.50 $23,310 ($4,252.50)
per day
variable costs -$3,267 -$4,887 $1,620
total per night $15,790.50 $18,423 ($2,632.50)
x 3 nights $47,371.50 $55,269 ($7,897.50)
By not renting the rooms to the Biker Club, the hotel will be losing $7,897.50 during the 3 nights.
The allocation of fixed costs per night assumes that all the hotel rooms are being rented every night and that is not true, so the total cost per night is not a valid amount. They should allocate fixed costs based on the average occupancy rates per month.
