Answer:
The opportunity cost of John's decision is the benefit that he could have derived from the:
New pair of jeans,
which he did not choose to buy.
Explanation:
In this scenario, John is faced with two alternative decisions. By choosing to spend his limited financial resource, $40, on the amusement park, the forgone benefit that would have been derived by choosing a new pair of jeans is lost by the cost of visiting the amusement park. The concept of opportunity cost helps in clarifying economic decisions among alternative courses of action, enabling the decision-maker to reach a favorable decision.
Marigold Corp. uses the periodic inventory system. For the current month, the beginning inventory consisted of 477 units that cost $65 each. During the month, the company made two purchases: 715 units at $68 each and 364 units at $70 each. Marigold Corp. also sold 1197 units during the month. Using the LIFO method, what is the amount of cost of goods sold for the month?
Answer:
COGS= $81,770
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= 477 units that cost $65 each.
Purchases:
715 units at $68 each
364 units at $70 each.
Units sold= 1,197
To calculate the cost of goods sold under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the lasts units incorporated into inventory:
COGS= 364*70 + 715*68 + 118*65
COGS= $81,770
Jorgansen Lighting, Inc., manufactures heavy-duty street lighting systems for municipalities. The company uses variable costing for internal management reports and absorption costing for external reports to shareholders, creditors, and the government. The company has provided the following data:
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3
Inventories:
Beginning (units) 200 170 180
Ending (units) 170 180 220
Variable costing net operating income $1,080,400 $1,032,400 $996,400
The company's fixed manufacturing overhead per unit was constant at $560 for all three years.
Requried:
Determine each yearâs absorption costing net operating income.
The absorption costing net operating income for Year 1, 2 and 3 is $1,063,000, $1,038,000, $1,018,800 respectively.
The absorption costing NOI of Year 1Change in inventory = Beginning Inventory - Ending Inventory
= 200 units - 170 units
= 30 units
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Beginning = Beginning Inventory units * Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit
= 200 units * $560
= $112,000
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Ending = Ending Inventory units * Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit
= 170 units * $560
= $95,200
Deferred in/(release) =Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Ending - Fixed Manufacturing overhead Beginning
= $95,200 - $112,00
= -$16,800
Absorption Costing NOI = Variable Costing NOI + Fixed manufacturing overhead from inventory deferred during the period
= $1,012,400 + -$16,800
= $1,063,000
The absorption costing NOI of Year 2Change in inventory = Beginning Inventory - Ending Inventory
= 170 units - 180 units
= -10 units
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Beginning = Beginning Inventory units * Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit
= 170 units * $560
= $95,200
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Ending = Ending Inventory units * Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit
= 180 units * $560
= $100,800
Deferred in/(release) =Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Ending - Fixed Manufacturing overhead Beginning
= $100,800 - $95,200
= $5,600
Absorption Costing NOI = Variable Costing NOI + Fixed manufacturing overhead from inventory deferred during the period
= $1,032,400 + $5,600
= $1,038,000
The absorption costing NOI of Year 3Change in inventory = Beginning Inventory - Ending Inventory
= 180 units - 220 units
= -40 units
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Beginning = Beginning Inventory units * Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit
= 180 units * $560
= $100,800
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Ending = Ending Inventory units * Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit
= 220 units * $560
= $123,200
Deferred in/(release) =Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Ending - Fixed Manufacturing overhead Beginning
= $123,200 - $100,800
= $22,400
Absorption Costing NOI = Variable Costing NOI + Fixed manufacturing overhead from inventory deferred during the period
= $996,400 + $22,400
= $1,018,800

You plan to purchase a $340,000 house using either a 25-year mortgage obtained from your local savings bank with a rate of 8.10 percent, or a 10-year mortgage with a rate of 7.10 percent. You will make a down payment of 20 percent of the purchase price.
a. Calculate the amount of interest and, separately, principal paid on each mortgage. What is the difference in interest paid?
b. Calculate your monthly payments on the two mortgages. What is the difference in the monthly payment on the two mortgages?
Answer:
a. Interest under 10 year mortgage = CUMIPMT(7.1%/12, 10*12, 340000*80%, 1, 10*12, 0)
Interest under 10 year mortgage = 108662.44
Interest under 25 year mortgage = CUMIPMT(8.1%/12, 10*12, 340000*80%, 1, 25*12, 0)
Interest under 25 year mortgage = 363217.16
Difference in interest = 363217.16 - 108662.44
Difference in interest = 254554.72
b. Monthly payment under 10 year = PMT(7.1%/12, 10*12, 340000*80%)
Monthly payment under 10 year = 3172.19
Monthly payment under 25 year = PMT(8.1%/12, 25*12, 340000*80%)
Monthly payment under 25 year = 2117.39
Difference in the monthly payment = 3172.19 - 2117.39
Difference in the monthly payment = 1054.80

What is the book value of total shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2019?
Answer:
$30,290,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the book value of total shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2019
First step is to calculate the Paid up share capital
Paid up share capital =200000*10
Paid up share capital=20,00,000
Second step is to calculate the Securities premium
Securities premium=2,00,000*5
Securities premium=10,00,000
Third step is to calculate the Net income after dividend
Net income after dividend=750,000-3,80,000
Net income after dividend=370,000
Fourth step is to calculate the Treasury stock at par value
Treasury stock at par value =8,000*10
Treasury stock at par value=80,00
Now let calculate the total shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2019
Total Equity share holders Fund=20,00,000+10,00,000+370,000-80,000
Total Equity share holders Fund=$30,290,000
Therefore the book value of total shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2019 is $30,290,000

Oak Island Amusements Center provides the following data on the costs of maintenance and the number of visitors for the last three years. Number of Visitors per Year(thousands) Maintenance Costs ($000) 1,875 $ 4,110 2,055 4,515 3,385 7,281 Required: a. Use the high-low method to estimate the fixed cost of maintenance annually and the variable cost of maintenance per visitor. b. The company expects a record 2,900,000 visitors next year. What would be the estimated maintenance costs
Answer:
Part a
Variable Cost = $1.50 per visitor
Fixed Cost = $187,500
Part b
$4,087,500
Explanation:
Step 1 : Identify the High and Low Point
High : 2,375,000 visitors at $3,750,000
Low : 1,825,000 visitors at $2,925,000
Step 2 : Determine Variable Cost
Variable Cost = Diff in Overheads ÷ Diff in Visitors
= ($3,750,000 - $2,925,000) ÷ ( 2,375,000 - 1,825,000)
= $825,000 ÷ 550,000
= $1.50
Step 2 : Determine the Fixed Cost
Fixed Cost = Total Overheads - Variable Costs
Choosing the High point
= $3,750,000 - $1.50 x 2,375,000
= $187,500
Step 3 : Determine Maintenance Cost on 2,600,000 visitors
Cost formula : Maintenance Cost = $187,500 + $1.50 per visitor
therefore,
for 2,600,000 visitors,
Maintenance Cost = $187,500 + $1.50 x 2,600,000
= $4,087,500
On December 31, 2020, Swifty Corporation sold for $152000 an old machine having an original cost of $265000 and a book value of $113000. The terms of the sale were as follows: $39000 down payment $56500 payable on December 31 each of the next two years The agreement of sale made no mention of interest; however, 8% would be a fair rate for this type of transaction. What should be the amount of the notes receivable net of the unamortized discount on December 31, 2020 rounded to the nearest dollar
Answer:
the amount of the note receivable net of the unamortized discount is $100,754
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of the note receivable net of the unamortized discount is shown below:
= $56,500 × present value of an ordinary annuity for 2 years at 8%
= $56,500 × 1.783265
= $100,754
hence, the amount of the note receivable net of the unamortized discount is $100,754
Bonita Beauty Corporation manufactures cosmetic products that are sold through a network of sales agents. The agents are paid a commission of 20% of sales. The income statement for the year ending December 31, 2020, is as follows.

The company is considering hiring its own sales staff to replace the network of agents. It will pay its salespeople a commission of 8% and incur additional fixed costs of $9,540,000.
Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation's break-even point in sales dollars for the year 2020.
Answer:
$80,940,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the estimated sales volume in sales dollars that would generate an identical net income for the year ending December 31, 2020
First step is to calculate New Sales commission
New Sales commission = $79,500,000*8%
New Sales commission= 6,360,000
Second step is to calculate Cm ratio
Cm ratio = (79,500,000-6,360,000-33,390,000)/79,500,000 = 50%
Now let calculate the Estimated sales revenue
Estimated sales revenue = (8,670,000+10260000+ 10,159,000+$11,381,000)/.50 = $80,940,000
Therefore the estimated sales volume in sales dollars that would generate an identical net income for the year ending December 31, 2020 will be $80,940,000
For each of the following unrelated situations, calculate the annual amortization expense and prepare a journal entry to record the expense: A patent with a 10-year remaining legal life was purchased for $350,000. The patent will be commercially exploitable for another eight years. A patent was acquired on a device designed by a production worker. Although the cost of the patent to date consisted of $52,300 in legal fees for handling the patent application, the patent should be commercially valuable during its entire remaining legal life of 10 years and is currently worth $400,000. A franchise granting exclusive distribution rights for a new solar water heater within a three-state area for five years was obtained at a cost of $70,000. Satisfactory sales performance over the five years permits renewal of the franchise for another three years (at an additional cost determined at renewal).
Answer:
(a) Debit Amortization expense - Patents for $43,750; and Credit Patents for $43,750.
(b) Debit Amortization expense - Patents for $5,230; and Credit Patents for $5,230.
(c) Debit Amortization expense - Franchise for $14,000; and Credit Franchises for $14,000.
Explanation:
(a) A patent with a 10-year remaining legal life was purchased for $350,000. The patent will be commercially exploitable for another eight years.
Annual amortization expenses = Purchase cost of the patent / Number of commercially exploitable years = $350,000 / 8 = $43,750
Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:
General Journal
Description Debit ($) Credit ($)
Amortization expense - Patents 43,750
Patents 43,750
(To record patent amortization.)
(b) A patent was acquired on a device designed by a production worker. Although the cost of the patent to date consisted of $52,300 in legal fees for handling the patent application, the patent should be commercially valuable during its entire remaining legal life of 10 years and is currently worth $400,000.
Annual amortization expenses = Legal fees / Remaining legal life = $52,300 / 10 = $5,230
Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:
General Journal
Description Debit ($) Credit ($)
Amortization expense - Patents 5,230
Patents 5,230
(To record patent amortization.)
(c) A franchise granting exclusive distribution rights for a new solar water heater within a three-state area for five years was obtained at a cost of $70,000. Satisfactory sales performance over the five years permits renewal of the franchise for another three years (at an additional cost determined at renewal).
Annual amortization expenses = Cost of acquiring the franchise / Number of years acquired = $70,000 / 5 = $14,000
Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:
General Journal
Description Debit ($) Credit ($)
Amortization expense - franchise 14,000
franchise 14,000
(To record franchise amortization.)
The current spot price of WTI Houston Crude Oil Futures, expiring in 1-year, is $43 (per bbl). You can contract storage cost for oil, for one year, at 2% (of the underlying spot price) on a continuously compounded basis. The risk-free rate is 0.5% per annum on a continuously compounded basis. If the current spot price for oil is $40.50, what is the implied convenience yield for this contract?
Answer:
-3.49%
Explanation:
Theoretical price (Ft) = $43
Current spot price (St) = $40.5
Storage cost (u) = 2%
Risk free rate (Rf) = 0.5%
T = 1 year
Let y = Convenience yield
Ft = St e^(Rf + u - y)T
43 = 40.5 e^(0.005 + 0.02 - y)
y = - 3.49%
Hence, convenience yield = -3.49%

[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Campus Stop, Inc., is a student co-op. Campus Stop uses a perpetual inventory system. The following transactions (summarized) have been selected for analysis: a. Sold merchandise for cash (cost of merchandise $152,070). $ 275,000 b. Received merchandise returned by customers as unsatisfactory (but in perfect condition) for cash refund (original cost of merchandise $800). 1,600 c. Sold merchandise (costing $9,000) to a customer on account with terms n/30. 20,000 d. Collected half of the balance owed by the customer in (c). 10,000 e. Granted a partial allowance relating to credit sales the customer in (c) had not yet paid. 1,800 Compute the gross profit percentage. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
Answer: 45%
Explanation:
First calculate the sales:
= Cash sales + credit sale
= 275,000 + 20,000
= $295,000
Terms on credit sale was 2/10 n/30 and they paid half in time($10,000) but a partial allowance of $1,800 was granted:
Net sales would be:
= Sales - sales returns - sales discount
= 295,000 - 1,600 - (10,000 * 2%) - 1,800
= $291,400
COGS = 152,070 + 9,000 - 800
= $160,270
Gross profit percentage = (Sales - Cost of goods sold) / Sales
= (291,400 - 160,270) / 291,400 * 100%
= 45%

Vaughn uses the periodic inventory system. For the current month, the beginning inventory consisted of 7200 units that cost $14.00 each. During the month, the company made two purchases: 3000 units at $15.00 each and 12200 units at $15.50 each. Vaughn also sold 13100 units during the month. Using the FIFO method, what is the ending inventory?
Answer:
Ending inventory= $144,150
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory consisted of 7200 units that cost $14.00 each.
Purchase:
3000 units at $15.00 each
12,200 units at $15.50 each.
Vaughn also sold 13,100 units during the month.
To calculate the ending inventory using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the lasts units incorporated into inventory:
Ending inventory= 9,300*15.5
Ending inventory= $144,150
A college student has been looking for a new tires. The student feels that the warranty period is a good estimate of the tire life and that 10% interest rate is appropriate. Given 4 options find the minimum Equivalent Uniform Monthly Cost. (Note: the student wants to buy 4 tires)
Warranty time (months) | Tire price (all 4 tires)
12 | 31
24 | 51
36 | 69
48 | 94
Answer:
The minimum Equivalent Uniform Monthly Cost = $2.2264
Explanation:
To find the Equivalent Uniform Monthly Cost: EUAC = P(A/P,I,N)
Where i = 10% => 10% / 12 =
N = 12 , 24 , 36 & 48 months
12 months Warranty time = 31(A/P,10%/12,12)
12 months Warranty time = 31 * 0.0879
12 months Warranty time = $2.7254
24 months Warranty time =51(A/P,10%/12,24)
24 months Warranty time = 51 * 0.0461
24 months Warranty time = $2.3534
36 months Warranty time = 69(A/P,10%/12,36)
36 months Warranty time = 69 * 0.0323
36 months Warranty time = $2.2264
48 months Warranty time =94(A/P,10%/12,48)
48 months Warranty time = 94 * 0.0254
48 months Warranty time = $2.3841
