Moorcroft’s assistant controller suggested that Moorcroft hire a part time collector to encourage customers to pay more promptly and to reduce the amount of uncollectible accounts. Sales are still 40% cash and 60% credit but the assistant controller predicted that this would cause credit sales to be collected 30% in the month of the sale, 50% in the month following sale, and 18% in the second month following sale; 2% are uncollectible.Prepare a schedule of expected collections from customers for June. How did these changes impact cash collections?

Complete Question:

Edna is a leading brain surgeon in the United States. She enters into a contract to perform a complicated brain surgery on Ben. However, since Edna is very busy, she wants to assign this contract to a less experienced surgeon, Charles. This would be Charles's first operation of this type. Ben can object to this assignment and prevent it because the contract between Ben and Edna is a(n):

Group of answer choices.

A. contract for services to be performed in the future.

B. contract involving personal skill.

C. services contract.

D. employment contract.

Answer:

B. contract involving personal skill.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Edna a leading brain surgeon in the United States enters into a contract to perform a complicated brain surgery on Ben. However, Edna is very busy and wants to assign this contract to a less experienced surgeon, Charles which would be his first operation of this type. Hence, Ben can object to this assignment (brain surgery) and prevent it because the contract between Ben and Edna is a contract involving personal skill.

Apparently, it can be deduced that Edna has competent and professional skills which is the reason why she's the leading brain surgeon in USA. Ben having this information at his disposal chose to go into the contract with Edna, who is an experienced brain surgeon. Therefore, the contract between the two (2) parties is solely based on Edna's personal skill.

The explanations to the answer is now given as follows:

Calculation of the average rate of return for this investment

Average rate of return (ARR) is a financial ratio that is used to determine the rate of return that is expected from an asset over its lifetime. ARR is calculated as the total income from the assets divided by the initial investment on the assets.

The average rate of return for this investment can be calculated as follows:

Total income form operations over five years = $100,000 + $40,000 + $40,000 $ $10,000 + $10,000 = $200,000

Average income = Total income form operations over five years / Number of years = $200,000 / 5 = $40,000

Average rate of return for this investment = Average income / Cost of Machine = $40,000 / $490,000 = 0.08, or 8%

Therefore, the average rate of return is 8%.

Answer:

$671.13

Explanation:

Abby had a checkbook balance of $1,002.45

$76.98 was paid to the electric company

$254.34 was paid to the water company

Therefore the current checkbook balance can be calculated as follows

=$1,002.45-($76.98+$254.34)

= $1,002.45-$331.32

= $671.13

Hence Abby's current checkbook balance is $671.13

Answer:

$14,143.86 can be withdrawn each month from the account for 20 years.

Explanation:

To determine this, the first step is to use the formula for calculating the future value (FV) of ordinary annuity to calculate the FV of both stock and bond as follows:

Calculation of Future Value of Stock

FVs = M × {[(1 + r)^n - 1] ÷ r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FVs = Future value of the amount invested in stock after 25 years =?

M = Monthly investment = $880

r = Monthly interest rate = 10.8% ÷ 12 = 0.9%, or 0.009

n = number of months = 25 years × 12 months = 300

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

FVs = $880 × {[(1 + 0.009)^360 - 1] ÷ 0.009}

FVs = $880 × 1,522.3445923122

FVs = $1,339,663.24

Calculation of Future Value of Bond

FVd = M × {[(1 + r)^n - 1] ÷ r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FVd = Future value of the amount invested in bond after 25 years =?

M = Monthly investment = $480

r = Monthly interest rate = 6.8% ÷ 12 = 0.566666666666667%, or 0.00566666666666667

n = number of months = 25 years × 12 months = 300

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

FVd = $480 × {[(1 + 0.00566666666666667)^300 - 1] ÷ 0.00566666666666667}

FVd = $480 × 784.895879465925

FVd = $376,750.02

Calculation of the amount that can be withdrawn monthly for 20 years

To calculate this, the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity is used as follows:

PV = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1+r)]^n} ÷ r] …………………………………. (3)

Where;

PV = Combined present values of stock and bond investments after retirement = FVs + FVb = $1,339,663.24 + $376,750.02 = $1,716,413.26

P = Monthly withdrawal = ?

r = Monthly interest rate = 7.8% ÷ 12 = 0.65%, or 0.0065

n = number of months = 20 years * 12 months = 240

Substitute the values into equation (3) and solve for P to have:

PV = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1+r)]^n} ÷ r]

$1,716,413.26 = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.0065)]^240} ÷ 0.0065]

$1,716,413.26 = P × 121.353915567094

P = $1,716,413.26 / 121.353915567094

P = $14,143.86

Therefore, $14,143.86 can be withdrawn each month from the account for 20 years.

Answer:

Regulation A

Explanation:

Answer:

unit cost for 2,000 units=$115

unit cost for 2,500 units =$113

unit cost for 5,000 units= $109

Explanation:

Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e.g machine hours, labour hours e.t.c. Units are valued using full cost per unit

Full cost per unit= Direct material cost + direct labor cost  + Variable production overhead + Fixed production overhead

Fixed production overhead = Budgeted overhead/Budgeted production units

unit cost for 2,000 units

unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/2000) = $115

unit cost for 2,500 units

unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/2,500)= $113

unit cost for 5,000 units

unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/5,000) = $109

unit cost for 2,000 units=$115

unit cost for 2,500 units =$113

unit cost for 5,000 units= $109

Answer: fall; rise

Explanation:

The real interest rate is the rate of interest that is received by an investor, lender or after inflation has been taken into consideration.

The real interest rate is when the inflation rate is deducted from the nominal interest rate. A reduction in the domestic real interest rate would cause a fall in net exports and a rise in the exchange rate.

Answer:

Stakeholders.

Explanation:

Stakeholders are the group of people who may be interested in the processes of a particular company. They are formed by the group of employees, suppliers and customers, who are the stakeholders in the organization.

Therefore, it is necessary that strategic actions and business processes are aimed at satisfying the interests and needs of stakeholders, who are the company's public, that is, the reason for the existence of a company.

It is important for the company to identify who its stakeholders are and how they directly impact the business, so that it can shape a strategy that is aligned with its interests and what they expect from the company.

Satisfying stakeholders and adopting corporate governance, contributes to the company having a strong market position and achieving several competitive and strategic advantages in the market, increasing its results and profitability.

Answer:

We have many formulas to arriving at the stock price but here we use Gordon growth model.

Formula for getting stock price is:

D1/r - g

Where:

D1 - is the next year dividend or expected dividend to be paid next.

r is the rate of return

g is the growth rate

$0.75/0.105 - 0.064

$0.75/0.041

$18.29.

Therefore, the stock's current price is $18.29

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance= $6,250 unfavorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard:

3 pounds of direct materials at $5 per pound.

10,000 units of product were produced last month and 31,250 pounds of direct materials were used.

To calculate the direct material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (3*10,000 - 31,250)*5

Direct material quantity variance= $6,250 unfavorable

Answer:

Maximum Amount Payable = $8333.33

Explanation:

Perpetual Annuity Payment = $500

Growth Rate = 3%

Discount Rate = 9%

Maximum Amount Payable = Present Value of Perpetual Annuity

Present Value of Perpetual Annuity =  Perpetual Annuity Payment / (Discount rate - Growth rate)

Maximum Amount Payable = $500 / (0.09 - 0.03)

Maximum Amount Payable = $500 / 0.06

Maximum Amount Payable = $8333.33

Answer:

dividends paid during 2015:

preferred stock dividends = $20,000, dividend per preferred stock = $0.25

common stock dividends = $0, dividend per common stock = $0

dividends paid during 2016:

preferred stock dividends = $28,000, dividend per preferred stock = $0.35

common stock dividends = $0, dividend per common stock = $0

dividends paid during 2017:

preferred stock dividends = $30,000, dividend per preferred stock = $0.375

common stock dividends = $170,000, dividend per common stock = $0.85

dividends paid during 2018:

preferred stock dividends = $30,000, dividend per preferred stock = $0.375

common stock dividends = $320,000, dividend per common stock = $1.60

Since the preferred stocks are not cumulative, any preferred dividends that are not paid during a year will not be paid in future years.

A contract which is an agreement between two individual is meant to be kept in any given business situation. In a situation where there is a need not to meet the elements of the contracts, there might be cancellation of the contract if both parties agrees.

When one of the parties refuses, he or she would go to court inorder to enforce the agreement. In most cases, the court would see reasons on why the agreements must be enforced.

Answer:

first we must determine taxable income = due income taxes / tax rate = $297,000  / 0.4 = $742,500

interest received on municipal bonds $9,300

unearned rent revenue = $42,800

deferred tax asset = $42,800 x 0.4 = $17,120

total pretax financial income = $742,500 + $9,300 + $124,000 - $42,800 = $833,000

deferred tax liability = $124,000 x .4 = $49,600

Answer:

The answer is: interest rates will decrease

Explanation:

Just got correct on edge

If there is an increase in the interest rate, then borrowing will decrease.

The term "domino effect" refers to the cumulative effect that is produced by one event that eventually leads to the same effect on others. In other words, the domino effect is when one disaster affects or brings destruction or disruption to others, leading to similar events.

In a domino effect, one event will bring the fall of the other. Therefore, if the interest rates increase, there will only be more problems for the customers. This will leave them reducing or decreasing the borrowing rate in the market. Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Answer:

C. Fixed rules.

Explanation:

This is simply a policy that is seen to be a monetary or in some cases fiscal; they are said to be automated in most of its cases and are based on the criteria that are predetermined.

In most cases, these policies are seen to be binding and also categorically constrain officials' policy choices based on certain predetermined criteria to direct them toward serving the public interest.

Many cases by policymakers made this policy to be put in place because most of them generally cannot bind their own future choices, also fixed policy rules usually have to be enforced by some kind of higher authority in order to be binding etc.

Answer:

The firm's annual cash flows resulting from the new project is $58,220

Explanation:

Increase in EBIT               $81,000

(65,000 + 16,000)

Less: Depreciation           $14,000

Profit before tax               $67,000  

Less: Tax at 34%              $22,780

Net income                       $44,220  

Add: Depreciation            $14,000

Operating cash flows     $58,220

Note: Depreciation = $140,000/10 years = $14,000

Answer:

Explanation:

Capitalized cost = Initial cost + Interest.

Initial cost = Principal - $10,000

Interest = Principal * Rate * Time/100

Given Principal = $10,000

Rate (in %) = 10%

Time (in years) = 5 years

Interest = 10,000*10*5/100

Interest = $5000

Capitalized cost = Initial cost + Interest.

Capitalized cost = $10,000+$5,000

Capitalized cost = $15,000

Hence the capitalized cost of $10,000 every 5 years forever, starting now at an interest rate of 10% per year, is closest to $15,000

Answer: Nether Australia or Europe

Explanation:

Purchasing power parity is a notion that states that prices of the same or similar goods should have the same price across the world after adjusting for exchange rate differences.

If the price of a tall latte in the U.S. is $4,00, it should be the same price in Europe and Australia after exchange rate adjustments.

$4.00 in Euro is:                                                  $4.00 in Australian dollars is:

= 4 * 0.8                                                                 = 4 * 1.4

= €3.20                                                                 = $5.60

Purchasing power parity does not hold in wither countries because the prices of the lattes are not equal to the $4.00 in the U.S. after adjustments for exchange rates.

Complete Question:

Crossfire Company segments its business into two regions - East and West.  The company prepared a contribution format segmented income statement as shown below:

                                                Total Company         East              West

Sales                                            $900,000        $600,000       $300,000

Variable Expenses                        675,000           480,000          195,000

Contribution margin                     225,000            120,000          105,000

Traceable Fixed Expenses            141,000              50,000            91,000

Segment Margin                          $84,000            $70,000          $14,000

Common Fixed Expenses            59,000

Net Operating Income               $25,000

Instructions: (As given).

Answer:

1. Computation of the companywide break-even point in dollar sales:

Break-even point in dollar sales

= Sales = Total costs

Sales = $816,000

Total costs = Variable costs + Traceable fixed costs

= $675,000 + $141,000

= $816,000

2. Computation of the break-even point in dollar sales for the East region:

Break-even point in dollar sales

= Sales = Total costs

= $530,000

Total costs = $530,000 ($480,000 + 50,000)

3. Computation of the break-even point in dollar sales for the West region:

Break-even point in dollar sales

= Sales = Total costs

= $286,000

Total costs = $286,000 ($195,000 + 91,000)

4. A new segmented income statement based on the break-even dollar sales that are computed in requirements 2 and 3:

                                                Total Company         East              West

Sales                                             $816,000        $530,000       $286,000

Variable Expenses                        675,000           480,000          195,000

Contribution margin                       141,000             50,000          105,000

Traceable Fixed Expenses            141,000             50,000            91,000

Segment Margin                                $0                     $0                   $0

Common Fixed Expenses            59,000

Net Operating Income/(loss)    ($59,000)

Crossfire's net operating income (loss) in the new segmented income statement is: $59,000

5. I think that Crossfire should allocate the common fixed expenses to the East and West regions when computing the break-even points for each region.

This ensures that Crossfire does not run into net operating loss, company-wide.  The segmented sales revenues for the regions can be used to allocate the common fixed expenses.  Other suitable bases are traceable fixed expense, number of sales and administrative staff, or activity cost pools, using activity-based costing technique.

Explanation:

a) Break-even point in sales dollars is the sales point at which Crossfire's sales revenue will be equal to the total costs.  At this point, Crossfire will not make any profit or incur any loss.
