Answer:
$62.40
Explanation:
Cost per unit = Total manufacturing cost + 40 % markup
therefore
Total manufacturing cost = $16 + $10 + $16 + ($502,200 ÷ 27,900)
= $60
Cost per unit = $60 + ($60 x 40 %)
= $62.40
Conclusion
The total cost per unit is $62.40

A building with an appraisal value of $136,787 is made available at an offer price of $157,859. The purchaser acquires the property for $34,148 in cash, a 90-day note payable for $27,610, and a mortgage amounting to $58,126. The cost basis recorded in the buyer's accounting records to recognize this purchase is
Answer:
the cost basis recorded to recognize this purchase is $119,884
Explanation:
The computation of the cost basis recorded to recognize this purchase is shown below:
= Acquired property in cash + note payable + mortgage
= $34,148 + $27,610 + $58,126
= $119,884

Consider a mutual fund with $219 million in assets at the start of the year and with 12 million shares outstanding. The fund invests in a portfolio of stocks that provides dividend income at the end of the year of $6 million. The stocks included in the fund's portfolio increase in price by 7%, but no securities are sold, and there are no capital gains distributions. The fund charges 12b-1 fees of 0.50%, which are deducted from portfolio assets at year-end. a. What is the net asset value at the start and end of the year
Answer:
Missing word "What is the Rate of return"
a. Asset at the end of the year = (Asset at the start of the year + Increase in value) * 12b-1 charges
Asset at the end of the year = ($219 million+ ($219 million * 7%)) * (1-0.50%)
Asset at the end of the year = ($219 million + $15.33 million) * 0.9950
Asset at the end of the year = $234.33 million * 0.9950
Asset at the end of the year = $233.16 million
Net asset value at the end of the year = Asset at the end of the year / Number of shares
Net asset value at the end of the year = $233.15835 million / 12 million
Net asset value at the end of the year = $19.430
b. Rate of return = (Net asset value at the end of the year + dividend per share - Net asset value at the start of the year) / Net asset value at the start of the year
Rate of return = ($19.430 + ($6 / 12) - $18.250) / $18.250
Rate of return = ($19.430 + $0.50 - $18.250) / $18.250
Rate of return = $1.68 / $18.250
Rate of return = 9.20%
Santa Monica adopted a rent control ordinance authorizing the Rent Control Board to set the amount of rents that could be charged. At a hearing before it, the board determined that McHugh was charging his tenants a rent higher than the maximum allowed. McHugh claimed that the action of the board was improper because there was no jury trial. Is McHugh correct
Answer:
No. McHugh is not correct.
Explanation:
A jury trial is not necessarily required in all cases. The Board is like a panel of judges who decide a case after preliminary investigations have been conducted and the facts established. Moreover, the case is a civil matter and not a criminal issue that would require the presence of a jury. It is not improper for a legally constituted board to hear a civil disobedience case and render a verdict, according to established rules.

Explanation:
Charlotte's Crochet Shoppe has 11,300 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $65 and a rate of return of 11.21 percent. The company also has 340 bonds outstanding, with a par value of $1,000 per bond. The pretax cost of debt is 5.93 percent and the bonds sell for 94.2 percent of par. What is the firm's WACC if the tax rate is 39 percent
Answer:
Please see below
Explanation:
Given that;
Common stock outstanding = 11,300
Price per share = $65
Number of bonds outstanding = 340
Bonds sell for $94.2 percent of par
Par value per bond = $1,000
Market value of common stock = Common stock outstanding × Price per share
= 11,300 × $65
= $734,500
Market value of debt:
Number of bonds outstanding × [Percent of par × Par value]
= 340 × [0.942 × $1,000]
= 340 × $942
= $320,280
Total market value:
= Market value of common stock + Market value of debt
= $734,500 + $320,280
= $1,054,780
WACC:
= [(Market value of debt ÷ Total market value) × Pretax cost of debt × (1 - Tax rate)] + [(Market value of common stock ÷ Total market value) × Rate of return]
= [($320,280 ÷ $1,054,780) × 0.00593 × (1 - 0.39)] + [($734,500 ÷ $1,054,780) × 0.1121]
= [(0.303646258) × 0.0036173 + [0.00780612545]
= 0.0010983796 + 0.00780612545
= 0.008904505
= 0.89%
Stewart Marketing Inc. manufactures two products, A and B. Presently, the company uses a single plant-wide factory overhead rate for allocating overhead to products. However, management is considering moving to a multiple department rate system for allocating overhead. From the following information, using a single plant-wide rate, determine the overhead rate per unit for Product A:
Overhead Direct Labor Product
Hours (dlh) A B
Painting Dept. $248,000 10,000 dlh 16 dlh 4 dlh
Finishing Dept. 72,000 10,000 4 16
Totals $320,000 20,000 dlh 20 dlh 20 dlh
======== ========== ====== ======
a. $496.00 per unit
b. $320.00 per unit
c. $144.00 per unit
d. $640.00 per unit
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $320
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Overhead Direct Labor Product
Hours (dlh) A B
Painting Dept. $248,000 10,000 dlh 16 dlh 4 dlh
Finishing Dept. 72,000 10,000 4 16
Totals $320,000 20,000 dlh 20 dlh 20 dlh
First, we need to calculate the plantwide overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 320,000 / 20,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $16 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 16*20
Allocated MOH= $320

Applying Closing Procedures Assume you are in the process of closing procedures for Echo Corporation. You have already closed all revenue and expense accounts to the Retained Earnings account. The total debits to Retained Earnings equal $308,800 and total credits to Retained Earnings equal $347,400. The Retained Earnings account had a credit balance of $99,000 at the start of this current year. What is the post-closing ending balance of Retained Earnings at the end of this current year
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Given the above details, post closing ending balance of retained earnings would be calculated by
= Debit balance in the retained earning + credit in the retained earnings - Credit balance in the retained earnings
= $308,800 + $99,000 - $347,400
= $60,400
Assume a market is currently at the equilibrium price and quantity, and a price ceiling is set below equilibrium price. Which of the following statements is true:
Select the correct answer below:
A. The quantity demanded will rise and the quantity supplied will fall, causing a shortage.
B. There is nothing causing the price to fall from the equilibrium level.
C. There is nothing preventing the price from rising to its equilibrium level.
D. The quantity supplied will rise and the quantity demanded will fall, causing a surplus.
Answer:
Option A: The quantity demanded will rise and the quantity supplied will fall, causing a shortage.
Explanation:
Price ceilings helps to hinder a price from rising above a known level. The assumption under it is that if a price ceiling is fixed (set) below the equilibrium price of the goods, this will definitely lead to quantity demanded exceeding quantity supplied. And when this happens, the result will be excess demand or shortages will come about. The use of Price floors hinders a price from going down below a certain level.

Bryant leased equipment that had a retail cash selling price of $750,000 and a useful life of six years with no residual value. The lessor spent $605,000 to manufacture the equipment and used an implicit rate of 8% when calculating annual lease payments of $150,219 beginning January 1, the beginning of the lease. Lease payments will be made January 1 each year of the lease. Incremental costs of consummating the lease transaction incurred by the lessor were $22,500. What is the effect of the lease on the lessor’s earnings during the first year, not including any effect of depreciation no longer required on the asset under lease (ignore taxes)? (Input decreases to income as negative amounts. Round Interest revenue to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer: $170,482.48
Explanation:
Effect of lease:
= Sales - Cost of goods sold (cost to manufacture) + Interest revenue - Selling expense
Interest revenue = (Selling price - Interest paid) * Interest rate
= (750,000 - 150,219) * 8%
= $47,982.48
Effect of lease = 750,000 - 605,000 + 47,982.48 - 22,500
= $170,482.48
ims Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The Assembly Department started the month with 5,000 units in its beginning work in process inventory that were 70% complete with respect to conversion costs. An additional 68,500 units were transferred in from the prior department during the month to begin processing in the Assembly Department. There were 33,000 units in the ending work in process inventory of the Assembly Department that were 60% complete with respect to conversion costs. What were the equivalent units for conversion costs in the Assembly Department for the month
Answer:
60,300
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the equivalent units for conversion costs in the Assembly Department for the month
Conversion
Units transferred to the next department 40,500
(5,000 + 68,500 - 33,000 )
Add Ending work in process 19,800
Conversion: (33,000 units × 60%)
Equivalent units of production 60,300
(40,500+19,800)
Therefore the equivalent units for conversion costs in the Assembly Department for the month is 60,300
Question 10 of 10
Which of the following is a true statement based upon the principle of the
time value of money?
A. The value of money does not increase or decrease as time
passes.
B. Money loses value over time if not used.
C. It is always best to receive money at a later point in time rather
than an earlier point in time.
O D. Money increases in value as time passes so long as it is not
invested.
Answer:
B. Money loses value over time if not used.
Explanation:
Money loses value over time and the reason why is inflation.
Inflation is the general increase in the price of the goods and services within an economy. Inflation causes money to lose value over time if not used because it reduces the purchasing power of money. This is why money should be used if it is not to be spent, mainly as a form of investment with the goal of earning an interest rate that is higher than inflation, or at least, equal to inflation.
Answer:
B. Money loses value over time if not used.
Explanation:
Money loses value over time and the reason why is inflation. Inflation is the general increase in the price of the goods and services within an economy. Inflation causes money to lose value over time if not used because it reduces the purchasing power of money. This is why money should be used if it is not to be spent, mainly as a form of investment with the goal of earning an interest rate that is higher than inflation, or at least, equal to inflation.

C. Ana and Shen face identical opportunity costs
Answer:
B
Explanation:
We have to consider the opportunity cost of both parties
Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.
If Ana chooses to shear, she would be forgoing an income $120
If Shen chooses to shear for 6 hours, she would be forgoing an income ($15 x 6) = 90
Shen has a lower opportunity cost and should shear
Flood damage in the Brush Creek area averages $7,000 annually. Civil engineers with floodplain expertise have designed a series of small dams to restrain the flow. They will cost $25,000 and will involve annual maintenance charges of $500. What is the anticipated benefit/cost ratio if the interest rate is 6 %, the service life is 10 years, and the salvage value is $5,000
Answer:
1.89
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 benefitsCash flow each year from year 1 to 9 = $7,000
Cash flow in year 10 = $7000 + 5000 = $12,000
I = 6%
PV = $54,312.58
Present value of costsCash flow in year 0 = $25,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 10 = $500
I = 6%
PV = $28,680.04
Benefit cost ratio = $54,312.58 / $28,680.04 = 1.89
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

Answer:
$(79,000)
Explanation:
Calculation to determine What would Market's profit margin be if the Talbot division was dropped and all fixed costs are unavoidable
Using this formula
Market's profit margin =Contribution margin - Fixed costs
Let plug in the formula
Market's profit margin=$101,000-$180,000
Market's profit margin=$(79,000)
Therefore What would Market's profit margin be if the Talbot division was dropped and all fixed costs are unavoidable is $(79,000)
The following December 31, 2021, fiscal year-end account balance information is available for the Stonebridge Corporation:
Cash and cash equivalents $5,800
Accounts receivable (net) 28,000
Inventory 68,000
Property, plant, and equipment (net) 160,000
Accounts payable 47,000
Salaries payable 19,000
Paid-in capital 140,000
The only asset not listed is short-term investments. The only liabilities not listed are $38,000 notes payable due in two years and related accrued interest of $1,000 due in four months. The current ratio at year-end is 1.6:1.
Required:
Determine the following at December 31, 2021:
1. Total current assets.
2. Short-term investments.
3. Retained earnings.
Answer and Explanation:
The calculations are given below:
1. Total current assets
we know that
Current ratio = Current assets ÷ current liabilities
where,
Current liabilities is
= Accounts payable + Accrued interest + Salaries payable
= $47,000 + $1,000 + $19,000
= $67,000
And,
Current ratio = 1.6:1
So,
Total current assets is
= 1.6 × $67,000
= $107,200
b. Short term investment is
Short term investment = Total current assets - Cash and cash equivalents - Accounts receivables - Inventories
= $107,200 - ($5,800 + $28,000 + $68,000)
= $5,400
c. Now retained earning is
Total assets
= Total current assets + Property, plant and equipment
= $107,200 + $160,000
= $267,200
Total liabilities is
= Current liabilities + Notes payable
= $67,000 + $38,000
= $105,000
Now Retained earnings is
= Total assets - Total liabilities - Paid in capital
= $267,200 - $105,000 - $140,000
= $22,200
Crane Company uses the periodic inventory system. For the current month, the beginning inventory consisted of 485 units that cost $60 each. During the month, the company made two purchases: 720 units at $63 each and 355 units at $65 each. Crane Company also sold 1200 units during the month. Using the FIFO method, what is the amount of cost of goods sold for the month? $72000. $75935. $74145. $75024.
Answer:
COGS= $74,145
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= 485 units that cost $60 each.
Purchases:
720 units at $63 each
355 units at $65 each.
Units sold= 1,200
To calculate the cost of goods sold (COGS) under the FIFO (first-in, first-out), we need to use the cost of the last units incorporated into inventory:
COGS= 485*60 + 715*63
COGS= $74,145
Moonbeam Company manufactures toasters. For the first 8 months of 2020, the company reported the following operating results while operating at 75% of plant capacity:
Sales (350,000 units) $4,375,000
Cost of goods sold 2,600,000
Gross profit 1,775,000
Operating expenses 840,000
Net income $ 935,000
Cost of goods sold was 70% variable and 30% fixed; operating expenses were 80% variable and 20% fixed. In September, Moonbeam receives a special order for 15,000 toasters at $7.60 each from Luna Company. Acceptance of the order would result in an additional $3,000 of shipping costs but no increase in fixed costs.
Instructions
a. Prepare an incremental analysis for the special order.
b. Should Moonbeam accept the special order?
Answer:
Moonbeam Company
a) Incremental Analysis for the Special Order:
Sales (15,000) at $7.60 $114,000
Variable cost of sales 5.20 78,000
Variable overhead 1.92 28,800
Total variable costs ($106,800)
Contribution $7,200
b) Moonbeam should accept the special order. It makes a contribution of $7,200 to the defraying of the fixed costs.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
operating results while operating at 75% of plant capacity:
Total Unit
Sales (350,000 units) $4,375,000 $12.50
Cost of goods sold 2,600,000
Variable (70%) $1,820,000 5.20
Fixed (30%) 780,000
Gross profit 1,775,000
Operating expenses 840,000
Variable (80%) $672,000 1.92
Fixed (20%) 168,000
Net income $ 935,000
Incremental Analysis for the Special Order:
Sales (15,000) at $7.60 $114,000
Variable cost of sales 5.20 78,000
Variable overhead 1.92 28,800
Total variable costs ($106,800)
Contribution $7,200
b) Incremental analysis concentrates on the variable elements of costs. The method disregards all fixed costs as they are regarded as sunk or past costs, and therefore, irrelevant to the decision at hand.
Suppose there is one firm in a market with linear demand function. The firm has a constant marginal cost of $9. The firm is currently charging $15 per unit, where the elasticity of demand is 3. The new CEO of this firm suspects that the current pricing strategy of this firm might not be profit maximizing. He hires you as an economic consultant to offer advice to this firm. Base on the information given, is the firm currently maximizing profits (choosing a monopoly price and quantity)? If not, should the firm raise its price or lower its price? Explain.
Answer:
We employ the fact that Pprofit Maximizing Price = Marginal cost * (ed/ed + 1)
Price = $9 * (-3 / (-3 + 1))
Price = $9 * (-3/-2)
Price = $9 * 1.5
Price = $13.5
As we can see that the profit maximizing price is 13.5. Whereas, the current price of $15 which is not profit maximizing. So the firm should reduce the price to 13.5 per unit so as to be maximizing profit.
You invest $1,000 in a risky asset with an expected rate of return of 0.17 and a standard deviation of 0.40 and a T-bill with a rate of return of 0.04. What percentages of your money must be invested in the risk-free asset and the risky asset, respectively, to form a portfolio with a standard deviation of 0.20
Answer:
50%, 50%
Explanation:
% of money invested in risky asset = Portfolio standard deviation/Standard deviation of risky asset
% of money invested in risky asset = 0.20/0.40
% of money invested in risky asset = 50.00%
% of money invested in risk free asset = 1 - 50.00%
% of money invested in risk free asset = 50.00%

Work in process inventory was $13,300 at January 1 and $17,200 at December 31. Finished goods inventory was $68,800 at January 1 and $47,900 at December 31.
Required:
a. Compute cost of goods manufactured.
b. Compute cost of goods sold.
Answer:
a. $352,200
b. $372,100
Explanation:
The cost of goods manufactured
Consider only the manufacturing costs
Cost of goods manufactured = $122,200 + $69,200 + $17,600 + $113,100 + $34,000 + $13,300 - $17,200
=$352,200
Cost of goods sold
Add Cost of goods manufactured to the net of Finished inventory balance
Cost of goods sold = $47,900 $68,800 + $352,200 - $47,900
= $372,100
