Consider the elements of cost in Geordie Ltd, namely, the cost of a product, the cost of direct labour and the cost of non-labour expenses (usually referred to as the overhead). In this company the material cost of a product is $6 less than thrice the cost of the direct labour; and the overhead is 3/4 of the direct labour cost. Knowing that the total cost of the product is $120, compute the amount of the material cost of the product, rounded to nearest 100-th
Answer:
$73.58
Explanation:
Total cost of product = $120
Total cost of product = Cost of material + Direct labor + Overhead
Cost of material = (3 * direct labor) - $6
Overhead = ¾ of Direct labor
Total cost of product = 3DL - $6 + DL + ¾ of DL
$120 = 3DL - $6 + DL + 0.75 DL
$126 = 4.75 DL
Direct Labor = 126/4.75
Direct Labor = $26.53
Material cost = 3 * $26.53 - $6
Material cost = $73.58

6. Job 412
Selling price per unit = $9,253
Explanation:
Estimated manufacturing overhead = $360,000
Estimated direct labor hours = 900
Predetermined overhead rate = $360,000/900 = $400 per DLH
Beginning Inventory Balances:
Raw materials $49,000
Work in process $40,000
Finished Goods $79,000
Job 412
Direct materials = $9,900
Direct labor hours = 35
Direct labor cost = $10,800
Applied overhead = $14,000 ($400 * 35)
Total cost = $34,700
Units in Job 412 = 6
Unit cost = $5,783 ($34,700/6)
Selling price = 60% markup
ASC 480-10 provides guidance on determining whether (1) certain financial instruments with both debt-like and equity-like characteristics should be accounted for outside of equity (i.e., as liabilities or, in some cases, assets) by the issuer and (2) SEC registrants should present certain redeemable equity instruments as temporary equity. Examples of contracts and transactions that may require evaluation under ASC 480-10 include:________
Answer:
. Redeemable shares.
• Redeemable noncontrolling interests.
• Forward contracts to repurchase own shares.
• Forward contracts to sell redeemable shares.
• Written put options on own stock.
• Warrants (and written call options) on redeemable equity shares.
• Warrants on shares with deemed liquidation provisions.
• Puttable warrants on own stock.
• Equity collars.
• Share-settled debt (this term is used to describe a share-settled obligation that is not in the legal form of debt but has the same economic payoff profile as debt).
• Preferred shares that are mandatorily convertible into a variable number of common shares.
• Unsettled treasury stock transactions.
• Accelerated share repurchase programs.
• Hybrid equity units.
Explanation:
ASC 480-10 is used when an issuer, in the declaration of its financial position, has to categorize some financial instruments that share the characteristics of liabilities and equities. The issuer always classifies legal-form debt as liability and this makes it not applicable under the ASC 480-10.
Under the ASC 480-10, three types of financial instruments are meant to be classified and they include;
1. Mandatorily redeemable financial instruments
2. Obligations to repurchase the entity’s equity shares by transferring assets, and
3.Certain obligations to issue a variable number of equity shares
The following production and average cost data for two levels of monthly production volume have been supplied by a company that produces a single product: Production volume 2,000 units 4,000 units Direct materials $ 88.40 per unit $ 88.40 per unit Direct labor $ 20.60 per unit $ 20.60 per unit Manufacturing overhead $ 86.90 per unit $ 55.30 per unit The best estimate of the total variable manufacturing cost per unit is: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.) Multiple Choice
Answer:
$132.70
Explanation:
The computation of the total variable manufacturing cost per unit is shown below
But before that manufacturing overhead per unit is recorded
Variable manufacturing overhead
= (Cost at the highest activity - Cost at the lowest activity) ÷ (Highest activity-Lowest activity)
= [(2000 × 86.90) - (4000 × 55.30)] ÷ (2000 - 4000)
= (173,800 - 221,200) ÷ (-2000)
= 23.70 per unit
Now Total manufacturing cost per unit
= Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Variable Manufacturing Overhead
= $88.40 + $20.60 + $23.70
= $132.70
Equipment was purchased for $94700 on January 1, 2021. Freight charges amounted to $3800 and there was a cost of $12000 for building a foundation and installing the equipment. It is estimated that the equipment will have a $25000 salvage value at the end of its 5-year useful life. What is the amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2022 if the straight-line method of depreciation is used
Answer:
$34,200
Explanation:
Step 1 : Cost of Equipment
Cost of Equipment include Purchase Price plus other costs directly incurred to put the asset in location and condition intended for use by management
Cost of Equipment = $110,500
Step 2 : Depreciation
Depreciation = (Cost - Residual Value)/ Useful Life
= $17,100
Step 3 : Accumulated Depreciation
Accumulated Depreciation = $17,100 x 2 = $34,200
Therefore,
the amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2022 is $34,200
The following situations refer only to the preceding data; there is no connectionbetween the situations. Unless stated otherwise, assume a regular selling price of $6 per unit. Choose the best answer to each question. Show your calculations.1.The pen is usually produced and sold at the rate of 240,000 units per year (an average of 20,000 per month). The selling price is $6 per unit, which yields total annual revenuesof $1,440,000. Total costs are $1,416,000, and operating income is $24,000, or $0.10 per unit. Market research estimates that unit sales could be increased by 10% if prices were cut to $5.80. Assuming the implied cost-behavior patterns continue, this action, if taken, would
Answer:
If prices are cut by $0.2 then the operating income will increase by $91,200.
Explanation:
Current Gross Profit is :
Revenue [240,000 * $6] = $1,440,000
Cost of Sales = $1,416,000
Gross Profit = $24,000
If selling price is reduced to $5.80
Revenue $5.80 * [ 240,000 * 1.10 % ] = $1,531,200
Cost of Sales $1,416,000
Gross Profit = $115,200
The United States is said to have an absolute advantage in producing food compared with Japan. What does that mean?
It must import most of its food from Japan.
It produces food more efficiently than Japan.
It produces food at a higher cost than Japan.
It must export most of its food to Japan.
Answer:
It produces food more efficiently than Japan.
Explanation:
Given that an ABSOLUTE ADVANTAGE is when a country or company can produce the same quantity of goods more efficiently than another country or company with lesser input or produce more quantities of goods with more efficiently with the same input.
Hence, in this case, when it is said that the United States has an absolute advantage in producing food compared with Japan, it means that "It produces food more efficiently than Japan."
The correct answer would be B: It produces food more efficiently than Japan
Bonita Enterprises reported cost of goods sold for 2020 of $1,419,800 and retained earnings of $5,569,300 at December 31, 2020. Bonita later discovered that its ending inventories at December 31, 2019 and 2020, were overstated by $99,040 and $31,710, respectively. Determine the corrected amounts for 2020 cost of goods sold and December 31, 2020, retained earnings.
Answer:cost of goods sold in 2020 = $1,352,470
retained earnings in December 31, 2020 =$5,537,590
Explanation:
For cost of goods sold in 2020
Corrected cost of goods sold = Reported cost of goods sold in 2020 - overstated value of ending inventory in year 2019 + overstated value of ending inventory in year 2020
= $1,419,800 -$99,040+ $31,710,
= $1,352,470
For retained earnings in December 31, 2020
Corrected retained earnings == Reported retained earning in 2020 - overstated value of ending inventory in year 2020
= $5,569,300-$31,710
=$5,537,590

The Board of Ursinus College in Pennsylvania raised its tuition and fees 17.6 percent to $23,460 in 2000. It subsequently received 200 more applications than the year before. The president of the college surmised that "applicants had apparently concluded that if the college cost more, it must be better." Other colleges that raised tuition to match rival colleges in recent years include University of Notre Dame, Bryn Mawr College, Rice University, and the University of Richmond. They also experienced an increase in applications. In contrast, North Carolina Wesleyan College lowered their tuition and fees about 10 years ago by 22 percent and attracted fewer students. The college president concluded that "it didn't work out the way it had been hoped. People don't want cheap."
You are hired as a consultant to a President of a liberal arts college in the East. You are asked to evaluate a recommendation by the college's Admissions Director. Susan Hansen, to increase tuition and to reduce financial aid to students. Susan argues that the data from competing colleges suggest that the demand curves for colleges slope upward-the quantity demanded increases with price. Susan projects that the increase in tuition and reduction in financial aid will solve the school's financial problems. Last year, the college enrolled 400 new students who each paid an effective tuition of $15,000 (after financial aid), totaling $6,000,000. She projects that with the increased demand from charging an effective tuition of $25,000, the college will be able to enroll 600 new students (of equal or better quality), totaling $15,000,000.
Required:
Evaluate Susan's analysis and recommendation
Solution :
The demand curve : The quantity demanded for each price
[tex]$D=Q(P)$[/tex]
The prices goes up, quantity demanded will decreases.
The price goes up, quantity demanded will increase
Board of the Ursinus College in Pennsylvania raised tuition fees : $ 23,460 which is 17.6 % more to 2000.
The applicants : 200 more from previous year.
Therefore the college cost most, then it must be better.
Other rival competitions have also seen same scenarios. When cost goes down, the demand decreases.
Susan's perceptive :
Demand increases with cost increase and the demand curve slopes upwards.
Our understanding is completely different with the understanding of the college administrative officer, Susan.
Our understanding is negative slope of the demand curve other than change in price of any other parameter will lead to shift in demand curve, either in or out.
If all the tuitions fees are increased, then financial aid needs to be sponsored by the 'state'. That will effect reserves which leads to the failure of the sole purpose of aids.
Our recommendation should be to tell the board members the long term effects of the increase in the tuitions fees and no financial aid will create.

Question 2 is attached.
During its first year of operations, the McCormick Company incurred the following manufacturing costs: Direct materials, $6 per unit, Direct labor, $4 per unit, Variable overhead, $5 per unit, and Fixed overhead, $220,000. The company produced 22,000 units, and sold 16,000 units, leaving 6,000 units in inventory at year-end. Income calculated under variable costing is determined to be $330,000. How much income is reported under absorption costing
Answer:
$390,000
Explanation:
Given the above information, we'll determine first the total variable cost.
Total variable cost = (direct materials + direct labor + variable overhead) × units produced
= ($6 + $4 + $5) × 22,000 units
= $15 × 22,000 units
= $330,000
Per unit fixed cost = Fixed cost / total units produced
= $220,000/$22,000
= $10
Fixed cost in inventory = Inventory at year end × Per unit fixed cost
= 6,000 × $10
= $60,000
Net income under absorption costing = income under variable costing + Fixed cost on inventory
= $330,000 + $60,000
= $390,000

a. Green Company purchased merchandise inventory that cost $16,800 under terms of 2/10, n/30 and FOB shipping point.
b. Green Company paid freight cost of $680 to have the merchandise delivered.
c. Payment was made to the supplier on the inventory within 10 days.
d. All of the merchandise was sold to customers for $25,100 cash and delivered under terms FOB destination with freight cost amounting to $480.
The gross margin from these transactions of Green Company is:________
Answer:
Gross margin = $8156
Explanation:
Formula for gross margin is given by;
Gross margin = Revenue - Cost of goods sold
where,
Revenue = $25100
Cost of goods sold = (cost of Purchase × ( 1 - Discount rate)) + freight cost
Thus;
Cost of goods sold = $16800 - (16800 × 0.02)) + $480
Cost of goods sold = $16944
Thus;
Gross margin = $25100 - $16944
Gross margin = $8156
Riverbed Company had $151,800 of net income in 2016 when the selling price per unit was $151, the variable costs per unit were $91, 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 Riverbed Company is under pressure from stockholders to increase net income by $64,300 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:
Riverbed Company
1. The number of units sold in 2016:
= 12,127
2. The number of units that would have to be sold in 2017 to meet desired profit level of stockholders:
= 13,199
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 $156.30 per unit, in order to achieve stockholders' desire for more profitability.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
2016 net income = $151,800
Selling price = $151
Variable cost per unit = $91
Contribution = $60
Fixed costs = $575,800
Units sold = 12,127 ($575,800 + 151,800)/$60
When net income increases by $64,300, the units sold will increase by 1,072 ($64,300/$60)
Sales volume = 13,199 (12,127 + 1,072)
To achieve the same level of profitability ($216,100) at the same level of units sold, the price will increase by $5.30 ($64,300/12,127) to $156.30.
A congresswoman from a state with several semiconductor factories argues that the government should impose a tariff on semiconductors because they are a necessary input into the production of various weapons. Free trade, she contends, would make the United States overly dependent on foreign countries for the supply of semiconductors and thus, in case of war, unable to make enough weapons to defend itself. Which of the following justifications is the senator using to argue for the trade restriction on semiconductors?
a. Infant-industry argument
b. Using-protection-as-a-bargaining-chip argument
c. Jobs argument
d. Unfair-competition argument
e. National-security argument
Answer:
National-security argument
Explanation:
Governments may intervene in markets for any reason at all.
A tariff is simply known as a tax
that is imposed on imports. There are various reasons why trade is restricted for product or services. The different arguments for restricting trade includes:
1. jobs argument
2. national security argument
3. infant-industry argument
4. unfair-competition argument
5. protection-as-bargaining-chip argument
The national security argument state that industries or product important to national security should be protected from foreign competition and not allow to focus mainly on dependence on imports that could be scattered during wartime.
The National Security Response is said to be as good as long as we base policy on true security needs.
On January 1, 2021, The Barrett Company purchased merchandise from a supplier. Payment was a noninterestbearing note requiring five annual payments of $20,000 on each December 31 beginning on December 31, 2021, and a lump-sum payment of $100,000 on December 31, 2025. A 10% interest rate properly reflects the time value of money in this situation.Required:Calculate the amount at which Barrett should record the note payable and corresponding merchandise purchased on January 1, 2021.
Answer:
Barrett Company
The amount at which Barrett should record the note payable and corresponding merchandise purchased on January 1, 2021 is:
= $125,500.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Non-interest-bearing note annual payment = $20,000
Date of annual payments = December 31
Lump sum payment on December 31, 2025 = $100,000
Interest rate reflecting the time value of money = 10%
The amount for the note payable and corresponding merchandise on January 1, 2021 is:
PV annuity factor for 4 years at 10% = 3.170
Total PV of annual payments = $63,400 ($20,000 * 3.170)
PV of lump-sum payment = 62,100 ($100,000 * 0.621)
Total PV of payments = $125,500
Answer the question on the basis of the following two schedules, which show the amounts of additional satisfaction (marginal utility) that a consumer would get from successive quantities of products J and K.
Units of J MUj Units of K MUk
1 56 1 32
2 48 2 28
3 32 3 24
4 24 4 20
5 20 5 12
6 16 6 10
7 12 7 8
If the consumer's money income were cut from $52 to $28, and the prices of J and K remain at $8 and $4, respectively, she would maximize her satisfaction by purchasing:
a. 4 units of J and 5 units of K.
b. 6 units of J and 3 units of K.
c. 5 units of J and 5 units of K.
d. 2 units of J and 7 units of K.
Answer:
d. 2 units of J and 7 units of K.
Explanation:
Marginal utility of a consumer is the measure of the benefit gained by consuming each additional unit. In the given scenario the consumer will gain from consuming each additional unit of J and K. When the consumer will have more of J then his marginal utility will decline which indicates that there should be combination of J and K.
Cecil Green sells golf hats. He knows that most people will not pay more than $23 for a golf hat. Cecil needs a 39% markup on cost. What should Cecil pay for his golf hats? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Answer: $16.55
Explanation:
People will not pay more than $23 for a golf hat but Mr. Green still needs to add a 39% markup on cost.
Assume the price Mr. Green sells at is $23. His cost to get one hat should be denoted as x:
23 = x + (x * 39%)
23 = x + 0.39x
23 = 1.39x
x = 23/1.39
x = $16.55
A bank has kept records of the checking balances of its customers and determined that the average daily balance of its customers is $300 with a standard deviation of $56. A random sample of 200 checking accounts is selected. You are interested in calculating the following probabilities below.1. Assuming that the population of the checking account balances is normally distributed, what is the probability that a randomly selected account has a balance of more than $305?2. What is the probability that the mean balance for the selected sample is above $295?3. What is the probability that the mean balance for the selected sample is below $290?4. What is the probability that the mean balance for the selected sample is between $302 and $304?
Answer:
1. P(X > 305) = $0.1038
2. P ( X > 295) = $0.8962
3. P ( X > 290) = $0.0057
4. P(302 < X < 304 ) = $0.1488
Explanation:
Solution:
Data Given:
Mean = u = $300
SD = Standard Deviation = $56
Sample Size = n = 200
uX = u = 300
SDX = [tex]\frac{SD}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{56}{\sqrt{200} }[/tex] = 3.96
1.
P(X > 305) = 1-P ([tex]\frac{X - uX}{SDX} < \frac{305 - 300}{3.96}[/tex])
P(X > 305) = 1-P (Z < 1.26)
Using Standard Normal Table, we have:
P(X > 305) = 1 - 0.8962
Probability = $0.1038
2.
P ( X > 295) = 1 - P ( [tex]\frac{X - uX }{SDX} < \frac{295 - 300}{3.96}[/tex] )
P ( X > 295) = 1 - P (Z< 1.26)
Using standard normal table, we have:
P ( X > 295) = 1 - 0.1038
P ( X > 295) = $0.8962
3.
P ( X > 290) = P ( [tex]\frac{X - uX }{SDX} < \frac{290 - 300}{3.96}[/tex] )
P ( X > 290) = P ( z< -2.53)
Using Standard normal table, we have:
P ( X > 290) = $0.0057
4.
P(302 < X < 304 ) = P ( [tex]\frac{302 - 300}{3.96} < \frac{X - uX}{SDX} < \frac{304 - 300}{3.96}[/tex] )
P(302 < X < 304 ) = P ( 0.51 < z < 1.01)
P(302 < X < 304 ) = P (z < 1.01) - P (z < 0.51)
P(302 < X < 304 ) = 0.8438 - 0.6950
P(302 < X < 304 ) = $0.1488
A man uses 1/8 of his salary after tax on
house rent and a 3/5 on transport, food and
other household items. He then reserves
5/8 of the remainder on leisure and
incidentals while saving the rest. If he
saves $37135 every month. How much is
his Salary after tax? (round to the nearest
whole number)
Answer:
$360,534
Explanation:
The computation of the salary after tax is shown below:
Let us assume the salary be x
So 1 by 8 of x = 0.125x
And, 3 by 5 of x = 0.6x
Now
X - (0.125x + 0.6x) = 0.275x
Balance = 0.275x
5 by 8 of 0.275x = 0.172x
0.275x - 0.172x = 0.103x
Now
0.103x = $37135
So,
x = $360,534
Longobardi Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on the estimated labor-hours for the upcoming year. At the beginning of the most recently completed year, the Corporation estimated the labor-hours for the upcoming year at 35,600 labor-hours. The estimated variable manufacturing overhead was $6.76 per labor-hour and the estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead was $906,732. The actual labor-hours for the year turned out to be 32,000 labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to:
Answer: $32.23 per labor-hour
Explanation:
To solve the question, we need to first calculate the estimated total manufacturing overhead which will be:
= $906,732 + ($6.76 per labor-hour × 35,600 labor-hours)
= $906732 + $240656
= $1,147,388
Predetermined overhead rate will then be:
= $1,147,388 / 35,600 labor-hours
= $32.23 per labor hour
An individual has $40,000 invested in a stock with a beta of 0.6 and another $60,000 invested in a stock with a beta of 2.1. If these are the only two investments in her portfolio, what is her portfolio's beta? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
Portfolio beta= 1.50
Explanation:
The portfolio beta is the weighted average beta which is the sum of the individual beta in the portfolio weighted according to the proportion that each individual asset value bears to the total asset value.
This is given in the relationship below
Portfolio beta = WaRa + Wb+Rb + Wn+Rn
W- weight, R- stock beta
Portfolio beta = (40,000/100,000)×0.6 + = (60,000/100,000)×2.1
=1.50
Portfolio beta= 1.50

Marigold Corp. took a physical inventory on December 31 and determined that goods costing $155,000 were on hand. Not included in the physical count were $28,000 of goods purchased from Pelzer Corporation, FOB shipping point, and $21,800 of goods sold to Alvarez Company for $30,400, FOB destination. Both the Pelzer purchase and the Alvarez sale were in transit at year-end. What amount should Marigold report as its December 31 inventory
Answer: $204,800
Explanation:
When a good is shipped FOB shipping point, it means that the buyer assumes responsibility for the goods as soon as the goods reach the place they will be shipped from. The purchase from Pelzer should therefore be included in inventory because it has already been shipped.
A good shipped FOB Destination means that the buyer only assumes responsibility after the goods have been delivered to them. As the sale to Alvarez was still in transit, it is still the responsibility of Marigold and should be included in inventory.
Inventory is therefore:
= 155,000 + 28,000 + 21,800
= $204,800
A company uses a process costing system. Its Assembly Department's beginning inventory consisted of 54,800 units, 75% complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. The department completed and transferred out 115,500 units this period. The ending inventory consists of 44,800 units that are 25% complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. The department incurred direct labor costs of $36,000 and overhead costs of $44,000 for the period. Assuming the weighted average method, the direct labor cost per equivalent unit (rounded to the nearest cent) is:
Answer:
$0.28/EUP
Explanation:
Calculation for the direct labor cost per equivalent unit (rounded to the nearest cent) is:
First step is to calculate the Total EUP's
Completed and transferred out 115,500
Add EGIP $11,200
(44,800 * 25%)
Total EUP's $126,700
Now let calculate direct labor cost per equivalent unit using this formula
Direct labor cost per equivalent unit=Cost / Eup
Let plug in the formula
Direct labor cost per equivalent unit=($36,000/$126,700)
Direct labor cost per equivalent unit=$0.28/EUP
Therefore Assuming the weighted average method, the direct labor cost per equivalent unit (rounded to the nearest cent) is:$0.28/EUP
