Answer:
$10,680
Explanation:
Computation of the amount of how much more tax that Logan will pay currently if MG is a C corporation compared to the tax he would pay if it were an S corporation
Logan would pay the amount of $19,320 in taxes if Military Gear Inc. is a C corporation ($80,500 ×24%).
In a situation were it is an S corporation, that means he would pay the amount of $8,640 in taxes (($80,500 - $44,500) × 24%).
Therefore he has to pay the amount of $10,680 more in his taxes which is ($19,320 - $8,640) currently if Military Gear, Inc.
Logan's tax basis $155,500 -$111,000 tax loss for the year =$44,500
Therefore the amount of money that Logan will tend to pay MG is a C corporation compared to the tax he would pay if it were an S corporation would be $10,680.
At Nice Price for the Ice, an ice cream parlor, customers routinely buy a scoop of ice cream for $2.75. If consumers purchase one scoop of ice cream at $2.75, then why don't they keep buying more and more scoops for $2.75 until the store sells out?
Answer:
Consumers would not keep buying ice cream at $2.75 because after purchasing a certain amount of ice cream, utility would be maximised and consumers would not value ice cream at $2.75 anymore. Consumers would not purchase a product it the marginal utility that would be derived from consuming the product is less than the price.
According to the law of diminishing marginal utility, as more units of a product is increased, total utility increases but at a decreasing rate.
Explanation:
Marginal utitiy is the increase in utility that is derived from consuming one more unit of a product.
If annual demand is 12,000 units, the ordering cost is $6 per order, and the holding cost is $2.50 per unit per year, which of the following is the optimal order quantity using the fixed-order quantity model?
A. 421
B. 234
C. 78
D. 26
E. 312
Answer:
240 units
Explanation:
We can find Optimal order quantity easily by Optimal order quantity formula using the fixed order quantity formula
Formula:: Optimal order quantity = [tex]\sqrt[2]{\frac{2CoD}{Ch} }[/tex]
Where
Co = Ordering cost per order
D = Annual demand
Ch = Holding cost per unit
Calculations
Lets put in the values
Optimal order quantity = [tex]\sqrt[2]{\frac{2CoD}{Ch} }[/tex]
Optimal order quantity = [tex]\sqrt[2]{\frac{2*6*12000}{2.5} }[/tex]
Optimal order quantity = 240 units
Note: There must have been a mistake in question options the answer is 240 and closest to 240 is option B
The point factor method may appear to be a very objective approach to valuing jobs, but like other job evaluation methods, it relies heavily on _____________.
a. Projective values
b. Historical events
c. Standardized scoring
d. Subjective judgments
e. Compensable expert
Answer: Subjective judgments
Explanation:
Point factor method is an important method used during job evaluation. The responsibilities, requirements, and every other aspects of the job will be evaluated by using some set of standardised factors whereby points will be given to every job description.
It I based on subjective judgements because it is based on the personal judgement of the individual rating as no formal calculations will be made but just the opinion of the subject and also his or her past experience.
Standard Product Cost, Direct Materials Variance Condiments Company uses standards to control its materials costs. Assume that a batch of ketchup (2,300 pounds) has the following standards: Standard Quantity Standard Price Whole tomatoes 3,800 lbs. $0.46 per lb. Vinegar 210 gal. 2.80 per gal. Corn syrup 18 gal. 10.20 per gal. Salt 84 lbs. 2.60 per lb. The actual materials in a batch may vary from the standard due to tomato characteristics. Assume that the actual quantities of materials for batch 08-99 were as follows: 4,000 lbs. of tomatoes 202 gal. of vinegar 19 gal. of corn syrup 83 lbs. of salt a. Determine the standard unit materials cost per pound for a standard batch. If required, round amounts to the nearest cent.
Answer:
Standard unit materials cost per pound=$1.11 per pound
Explanation:
The standard material cost for a standard batch = Total material cost / standard qty (in pounds)
Total material cost = (3,800× $0.46) + (210× 2.80) (84×2.60)=$2554.4
Total standard quantity = 2,300 pounds
Standard unit materials cost per pound =$2554.4/ 2,300 pounds=$1.11 per pounds
standard unit materials cost per pound=$1.11 per pound
The accounting scandals of the early 2000s led many people to question the legitimacy of: ratio analysis as a means of evaluating the performance of a firm. relying on the recommendations of tax accountants to find ways of reducing the taxes owed by a business organization. publishing financial information about a firm on the Internet. allowing an accounting firm to do both consulting and auditing work for the same company.
Answer:
The accounting scandals of the early 2000sled many people to question the legitimacy of:
allowing an accounting firm to do both consulting and auditing work for the same company.
Explanation:
1) Enron and WorldCom fell from grace during the scandal. And Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 was introduced to regulate the practise of auditing, which was before self-regulated.
2) People felt that accounting firms were getting so much revenue from consulting that they did not pay much attention to their auditing work.
3) They also felt that the consulting relationship was jeopardizing their responsibilities and commitments as independent auditors.
4) Since they were involved in consulting and offering management services, they paid a lip service to their main responsibilities and directly compromised their positions as verifiers of the truth and fairness in the presentation of financial statements.
5) According to Paul Krugman of The New York Times, “the Enron debacle is not just the story of a company that failed; it is the story of a system that failed. And the system didn’t fail through carelessness or laziness; it was corrupted.” People felt that the corruption arose from the performance of these separate services by the same auditing personnel and firm.

Suppose you are trying to decide whether to invest in a company that generates a high expected ROE, and you want to conduct further analysis on the company’s performance. If you wanted to conduct a comparative analysis for the current year, you would: Compare the firm’s financial ratios for the current year with its ratios in previous years Compare the firm’s financial ratios with other firms in the industry for the current year
Answer:
Compare the firm’s financial ratios with other firms in the industry for the current year
Explanation:
return on equity (ROE) = net income / stockholders' equity
it measures how profitable the company is according the amount of money that stockholders' invested in it.
Since you are trying to conduct a comparative analysis for the current year, it doesn't make sense to compare the current financial ratios with the financial ratios of previous years. If you want to compare the current year, you must compare the current financial ratios to the ratios of other companies in the same industry or the industry as a whole.
On December 31, 2018, a company had assets of $29 billion and stockholders' equity of $22 billion. That same company had assets of $55 billion and stockholders' equity of $17 billion as of December 31, 2019. During 2019, the company reported total sales revenue of $22 billion and total expenses of $20 billion. What is the company's debt-to-assets ratio on December 31, 2019
Answer:
0.69
Explanation:
From the question above on December 31, 2018 a company has an assets of $29 billion and stockholders equity of $22 billion.
On December 31, 2019 the same company recorded an assets of $55billion and stockholders equity of $17billion
Inorder to calculate the debt-to-assess ratio the first step is to find the amount of liabilities
Liabilities= Assets-Stockholders equity
Assets= $55 billion
Stockholders equity= $17 billion
= $55billion-$17billion
= $38 billion
Therefore, the debt-to-assets ratio can be calculated as follows
Debt-to-assets ratio= Total liabilities/Total Assets
= $38 billion/ $55 billion
= 0.69
Hence on December 31, 3019 the debt-to-assets ratio is 0.69
One-year Treasury securities yield 4%. The market anticipates that 1-year from now 1-year Treasury securities will yield 2.1%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what should be the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities? Write your answer as a percentage, i.e. for example write 8% as 8.
Answer:
3.05%
Explanation:
According to Pure Expectation Theory, the future short term interest rates are actually the forward rates.
Mathematically,
(1 + r2,0)^2 = (1 + r1,0)^1 * (1 + r1,1)^1
Here,
r2,0 is the rate of interest for 2 year treasury security from today
r1,0 is the rate of the interest for 1 year treasury security from today
r1,1 is the rate of the interest for 2 year treasury security from Year 1
By Putting Values, we have:
(1 + r2,0)^2 = (1 + 0.04)^1 * (1 + 0.021)^1
(1 + r2,0)^2 = 1.06184
By taking square-root on both sides, we have:
(1 + r2,0) = 1.0305
r2,0 = 3.05%
On January 1, 2019, Upward Company purchased a copy machine. The machine costs $320,000, its estimated useful life is 8 years, and its expected salvage value is $20,000. What is the depreciation expense for 2020 using double-declining-balance method
Answer:
$60,000
Explanation:
Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset
Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2 / 8 = 0.25
Depreciation expense in 2019 = 0.25 x $320,000 = $80,000
Book value at the beginning of 2020 = $320,000 - $80,000 = $240,000
Depreciation expense in 2020 = 0.25 x $240,000 = $60,000

An insurance policy sells for $1200. Based on past data, an average of 1 in 100 policyholders will file a $10 comma 000 claim, an average of 1 in 250 policyholders will file a $40 comma 000 claim, and an average of 1 in 400 policyholders will file an $80 comma 000 claim. Find the expected value (to the company) per policy sold. If the company sells 30 comma 000 policies, what is the expected profit or loss?
Answer:
Expected Value = $740
Expected profit = $22.2m
Explanation:
We can easily calculate the expected value and expected profit/loss in this situation by some minor working
Expected values = Expected Claim - per policy cost
Expected profit/loss = (Expected claim - per policy cost) x number of policies
As you can see per policy cost and no of policies are given in the question data we just need to find expected claim for calculation of expected profit or loss and expected value
Expected Claim = (1/100x$10,000)+(1/250x$40,000)+(1/400x$80,000)
Expected Claim = 100 + 160 + 200
Expected Claim = 460
Now we have a value of expected claim lets put it into Expected profit/loss formula and expected value formula
Expected value = 460-1200
Expected value = -740
-$740 is the value per policy
Expected profit/loss = (460 - $1200 per policy) x 30,000
Expected profit or loss = -22,200,000
Expected loss to the customer = -$22.2 m
Expected profit for the company = $22.2m
Gates Corporation reported the following information concerning its direct materials: Direct materials purchased (actual) $ 673,000 Standard cost of materials purchased $ 688,000 Standard price times actual amount of materials used $ 444,000 Actual production 22,000 units Standard direct materials costs per unit produced $ 20Required: Compute the direct materials cost variances.
Answer:
The answer is 15000 F
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
Direct materials purchased = $673,000
Standard cost of materials purchased = $688,000
Actual production = 22,000 unit
Standard price times real amount of materials = $ 444,000
Now we find the direct materials cost variances.
Thus
Direct material price variance = (444000-673000)
= 229000 U
Then
Direct material efficiency variance = (688000-444000)
= 244000 F
Total cost variance = (688000-673000)
= 15000 F
Therefore the direct materials variances is 15000 F
Au Sable Corporation reported taxable income of $760,000 in year 2 and paid federal income taxes of $176,500. Not included in the computation was a disallowed penalty of $42,000, and life insurance proceeds of $185,000. Included in the computation of taxable income is a deduction for the bargain element of exercised nonqualified stock options of $67,000. The corporation's current earnings and profits for year 2 would be:
Answer:
$726,500
Explanation:
The computation of current earnings and profits for year 2 is shown below:-
current earnings and profits for year 2 = Profit as per Income Tax - Penalty disallowed + Life insurance proceed - Tax Expenses
= $760,000 - $42,000 + $185,000 - $176,500
= $945,000 - $42,000 - $176,500
= $726,500
Therefore we have applied the above formula to reach out the current earnings and profits for year 2.
Finch Company began its operations on March 31 of the current year. Finch has the following projected costs: May June April $159,700 890 Manufacturing costs (1) Insurance expense (2) Depreciation expense Property tax expense (3) $192,500 890 1,920 $214,400 890 1,920 1,920 440 440 440
(1) Of the manufacturing costs, three-fourths are paid for in the month they are incurred; one fourth is paid in the following month
(2) Insurance expense is $890 a month; however, the insurance is paid four times yearly in the first month of the quarter, (i.e., January, April, July, and October).
(3) Property tax is paid once a year in November The cash payments expected for Finch Company in the month of May are
a. $224 225
b. $144,375
c. $184,300
d. $39,925
Answer:
$184,300
Explanation:
1 There will be no cash payment for insurance expense because it has been already paid.
2 Depreciation is not a cash expense
3 Property tax will be paid in November
4 Only the manufacturing cost is to be paid in May
Manufacturing cost = May(75%) + April(25%)
Manufacturing cost = ($192,500 x 75%) + ($159,700 x 25%)
Manufacturing cost = $184,300

Answer:
1. Compute the following for Business Unit 1:
a) Operating Income = $117,500
b) Profit Margin = 20.7%
c) Investment Turnover = 0.86
d) Return on Investment = 0.2
2. Compute the following for Business Unit 2:
a) Operating Income = $69,750
b) Profit Margin = 12.2%
c) Investment Turnover = 1.18
d) Return on Investment = 0.1
Explanation:
1. Compute the following for Business Unit 1:
a) Operating Income
Operating Income = Revenue – Operating expenses = $280,000 – $162,500 = $117,500
Using the Dupont Formula:
b) Profit Margin % (round % to 1 decimal)
Net income = Operating income – Services department charges = $117,500 - $59,500 = $58,000
Profit Margin = Net income / Revenue = ($58,000 / $280,000) * 100 = 20.7%
c) Investment Turnover (round to 2 decimals)
Investment Turnover = Revenue / Invested Assets = $280,000 / $325,000 = 0.86
d) Return on Investment (round 1 decimal)
Return on Investment = Net income / Invested Assets = $58,000 / $325,000 = 0.1785 = 0.2
2. Compute the following for Business Unit 2:
a) Operating Income
Operating Income = Revenue – Operating expenses = $222,500 – $152,750 = $69,750
Using the Dupont Formula:
b) Profit Margin % (round % to 1 decimal)
Net income = Operating income – Services department charges = $69,750 - $42,625 = $27,125
Profit Margin = Net income / Revenue = ($27,125 / $222,500) * 100 = 12.2%
c) Investment Turnover (round to 2 decimals)
Investment Turnover = Revenue / Invested Assets = $222,500 / $189,000 = 1.18
d) Return on Investment (round 1 decimal)
Return on Investment = Net income / Invested Assets = $27,125 / $189,000 = 0.1435 = 0.1
1.List the three steps of the planning phase of the strategic marketing process. Briefly describe the core elements and the purpose of the three steps. 2.Which demographic cohorts are also known as the Millennial and Z Generations? Describe the interests and lifestyles of each cohort and explain why it is important to marketers. 3.Explain the actions and considerations that relate to the five stages of the consumer purchase decision process.
Answer:
1.List the three steps of the planning phase of the strategic marketing process.
The three sepecifc steps are:
Defining target audience - in this step, a segment of the market is chosen as the target for the good or service. (for example, young people, old people, wealthy people, poor people, etc).Setting measurable goals - in this step, a specific sales volume goal is determined.Developing budget - in this step, a detailed budget is developed in order to carry out the strategy that should help the company reach its marketing goal (previous step).2.Which demographic cohorts are also known as the Millennial and Z Generations?
Millenials: those born between 1981 and 1996. They tend to be progressive, and be interested in social media, internet culture, and technology.
Generation Z: those born between 1996 and and the early 2010s. They are much like millenials but even more so: more progressive, more interested in technology, and in social justice causes.
This information is crucial for marketers because they help complete the first step in the marketing planning process: targeting an audience. The demographic cohorts are in fact, market segments, albeit very broad ones.
3.Explain the actions and considerations that relate to the five stages of the consumer purchase decision process.
Problem or need recognition: in this stage, the customer becomes aware of a need that has not been met.
Information search: the customer looks for a product or service that can meet his needs.
Evaluation of alternatives: the customer chooses among the goods or services that could meet his needs.
Purchase: the customer completes the market transaction: the purchase of the good or service.
Post-purchase behaviour: the customer makes use of the product, or service, and decides whether his need was satisfied or not. ALso decides whether to buy the same good or service in the future or not.

Compute ending inventory and cost of goods sold under FIFO, LIFO, and average cost inventory costing methods.
Answer:
FIFO : Ending Inventory = $6,000, Cost of Goods Sold = $36,000
LIFO : Ending Inventory = $36,000, Cost of Goods Sold = $28,000
Weighted Average Cost Method : Ending Inventory = $10,500, Cost of Goods Sold = $31,500
Explanation:
FIFO
Assumes that the first goods received by business will be the first ones to be delivered to the final customer.
Ending Inventory
Ending Inventory = Units left × Earliest Price
= 3000 units × $2
= $6,000
Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold : 2000 units × $5 = $10,000
6000 units × $4 = $24,000
1000 units × $2 = $2,000
Total = $36,000
LIFO
Assumes that the last goods purchased are the first ones to be issued to the final customer.
Ending Inventory
Ending Inventory 2000 units × $5 = $10,000
6000 units × $4 = $24,000
1000 units × $2 = $2,000
Total = $36,000
Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold : 4000 units × $2 = $8,000
5000 units × $4 = $20,000
Total = $28,000
Weighted Average Cost Method
The average cost of goods held is recalculated each time a new delivery of goods is received Issues are then priced out at this weighted average cost.
First Calculate the Average Cost
Average Cost = Total Cost / Total Units
= (2000 × $5 + 6000 × $4 + 4000 × $2) / 12,000
= $42,000 / 12,000
= $3.50
Ending Inventory
Ending Inventory = Units left × Average Price
= 3000 units × $3.50
= $10,500
Cost of goods sold
Ending Inventory = Units Sold × Average Price
= 9,000 units × $3.50
= $31,500
Roses, Incorporated made a batch of flower arrangements that were sold to grocery stores for Valentine's Day. The standard and actual costs of the roses used in each arrangement are as follows:
Standard Actual
No of roses per arrangement 6 6.1
Price per rose .60 .58
A. The company made and sold 1,000 of the Valentine's Day arrangement. Based on this informaton the materials price variance was:________.
a. $122 favorable.
b. $122 unfavorable.
c. $60 favorable.
d. $60 unfavorable.
B Based on this informaton the materials usage variance was:_______.
a. $122 favorable.
b. $122 unfavorable.
c. $ 60 favorable.
d. $60 unfavorable.
Answer:
b. $122 unfavorable.
d. $60 unfavorable.
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that
Material Price Variance = (Standard price - Actual price ) × Actual quantity of Roses
where,
Actual quanity is
= 6.1 × 1,000 arrangements
= 6,100 roses
And,
Standard price = 0.6 and Actual price = 0.58
So, the material price variance is
= ($0.6 - $0.58 ) × 6,100 roses
= $122 Favorable
2, Now the material usage variance is
Material usage variance = (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) Standard price per rose
= ($6 × 1,000 - 6,100) × 0.6
= $60 Unfavorable
you want to buy a new ski boat 2 years from now, and you plan to save $7,000 per year, beginning one year from today. you will deposit your savings in an account that pays 6.2% interest. how much will you have just after you make your second deposit, 2 years from now
Answer:
$14,434
Explanation:
The question is asking to find the future value of making a payment of $7,000 every year for two years
The formula for finding future value =
FV = A x annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r) ^N ] - 1} / r
A = amount = $7,000
R = interest rate = 6.2%
N = 2
[(1.062) ^2 - 1 ] / 0.062 = 2.062
2.062 x $7,000 = $14,434
I hope my answer helps you
Answer: $14429
Explanation:
For this question, we will use the annuity formula to solve. The future value of an annuity is given as:
= C × ([(1+i)^n - 1] / i)
where,
C = The Cash flow per period
= $7000
i = the interest rate
= 6.2%
n = number of years
= 2
Future value of annuity will now be:
= 7000 × ([(1+0.062)²- 1]/0.062)
= 7000 × ([1.062)² - 1]/0.062)
= 7000 × [(1.1278 - 1)/0.062)]
= 7000 × (0.1278/ 0.062)
= 7000 × 2.0613
= $14429
The answer is $14429
Sumner sold equipment that it uses in its business for $31,800. Sumner bought the equipment a few years ago for $79,100 and has claimed $39,550 of depreciation expense. Assuming that this is Sumner's only disposition during the year, what is the amount and character of Sumner's gain or loss
Answer:
Sumner's has a loss of $-7750 from the sale of the equipment
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
We compute the amount of profit and loss, few steps will be taken which is given below:
Step 1: we compute the book value of the equipment which is shown below:
Book value = purchase price - depreciation claimed
= $79,100 -$39,550
= $39550
Therefore then book value is $39,550
Step 2: we calculate the amount of Sumner's gain or loss which is shown below:
The gain (loss) is = the value (sale) - book value
= $31,800 - 39550
= -7750
Therefore the loss from the sale of the equipment is -$7750
Which implies that Sumner's has a loss of $-7750
On March 1, Bartholomew Company purchased a new stamping machine with a list price of $70,000. The company paid cash for the machine; therefore, it was allowed a 5% discount. Other costs associated with the machine were: transportation costs, $1,300; sales tax paid, $3,120; installation costs, $1,000; routine maintenance during the first month of operation, $1,200. What is the cost of the machine
Answer:
$73,120
Explanation:
Bartholomew company purchased a new stamping machine with a list price of $70,000
They were given a discount of 5%
Other costs that are associated with the machine include
Transportation costs= $1,300
Sales tax= $3,120
Installation costs= $1,000
Routine maintenance during the first month= $1,200
Then, the cost of the machine can be calculated as follows
(70,000-5/100×70,000) + $1,300+$3,120+$1,000+$1,200
$66,500+$1,300+$3,120+$1,000+$1,200
= $73,120
Hence the cost of the machine is $73,120
On January 1, 2021, Pharoah, Inc. signed a 10-year noncancelable lease for a heavy duty drill press. the lease stipulated annual payments of $340,000 starting at the beginning of the first year, with title passing to Pharoah at the expiration of the lease. Pharoah treated this transaction as a finance lease. The drill press has an estimated useful life of 15 years, with no salvage value. Pharoah uses straight-line depreciation for all of its plant assets. Aggregate lease payments were determined to have a present value of $2,002,339, based on implicit interest of 11%.In its 2021 income statement, what amount of interest expense should Pharoah report from this lease transaction
Answer:
$182,857.29
Explanation:
Here, Pharoah, Inc. average lease payments have a present value of $2,002,339
First lease payment = $340,000
Interest rate = 11%
To find the interest rate, first deduct the first lease payment.
$2,002,339 - $340,000
= $1,662,339
This is deducted so as to reduce total lease liability.
Find the amount of interest expense:
$1,662,339 × interest rate
= $1,662,339 × 11%
= $182,857.29
In its 2021 income statement, the amount of interest expense Pharoah should report from this lease transaction is $182,857.29
An investment will pay $200 at the end the year, $250 at the end of the next year, $400 at the end of the third year, and $500 at the end of the 4th year. Other investments of equal risk earn 6%. How much is this investment worth today
Answer:
PV= $1,143.03
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
An investment will pay $200 at the end of the year, $250 at the end of the next year, $400 at the end of the third year, and $500 at the end of the 4th year. Other investments of equal risk earn 6%.
To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula on each cash flow:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
Cf1= 200/1.06= 188.68
Cf2= 250/1.06^2= 222.50
Cf3= 400/1.06^3= 335.85
Cf4= 500/1.06^4= 396
PV= $1,143.03
Currently, the price of Mattco stock is $30 a share. You have $30,000 of your own funds to invest. Using the maximum margin allowed of 50%, what is your percentage profit or loss if you purchase the stock and it rises to $33 a share
Answer:
The percentage profit or loss if you purchase the stock and it rises to $33 a share is 20%
Explanation:
In order to calculate the percentage profit or loss if you purchase the stock and it rises to $33 a share we would have to make the following calculation:
percentage profit or loss=Total Gain/Amount invested
Amount invested=$30,000
According to the given data we have the following:
Share price=$30
Amount invested=$30000
Therefore, Number of shares purchased= ($30,000/50% *1/30)=$2,000
Gain per share ($33-$30)=$3
Therefore, Total Gain=$2,000*$3=$6,000
Therefore, percentage profit or loss= $6,000/$30,000
percentage profit or loss=20%
The percentage profit or loss if you purchase the stock and it rises to $33 a share is 20%
