Answer:
The answer is $66,800
Explanation:
Beginning accounts receivable balance ---$37,800
Ending accounts receivable balance -----$31,000
Total credits to Accounts Receivable------ $73,600
Credit sales = (Total credits to Accounts Receivable + Ending accounts receivable balance) - Beginning accounts receivable balance
($73,600 + $31,000) - $37,800
$104,600 - $37,800
= $66,800
Nidal Company reported inventory in the 2020 year-end balance sheet, using the FIFO method, as $185,000. In 2021, the company decided to change its inventory method to average cost. If the company had used the average cost method in 2020, ending inventory would have been $171,000. What adjustment would Nidal make for this change in inventory method
Answer:
Dr Retained earnings $14,000
Cr Inventory $14,000
Explanation:
There is a need to make adjustment to the inventory . Therefore,
Adjusted inventory
= New method of $171,000 - Old method of $185,000
= $14,000 decrease
It is to be noted that a lower inventory will have high costs associated with goods sold hence reduces profit/net income for the previous year by $14,000.
Also, the net income reports to retained earnings account hence decreases retained earnings.
Having made the above adjustment, we can assume that the average cost method was used for 2020 books.
Answer:
Dr Retained earnings for $14,000
Cr Inventory for $14,000
Explanation:
Calculation of the adjustment that Nidal would make for this change in inventory method
Based of the information given the adjustment will records the decrease in inventory of $14,000 which is calculated as ( Inventory of $185,000 − Ending inventory of $171,000) as well as the decrease in retained earnings, just as if average cost had been used in 2020.]
Therefore the adjustment that Nidal would make for this change in inventory method will be:
Dr Retained earnings for $14,000
Cr Inventory for $14,000.
Product X used the following quantity of activity drivers to produce 100 units of final product: 25 setups, 40 material moves and 75 machine hours What is the total indirect manufacturing cost per unit for product X based on an ABC system? g
Answer:
$137.50 per unit
Explanation:
The computation of the total indirect manufacturing cost per unit is shown below:
Machine setups 15000 ÷ 100 × 25 = $3750
Material moves 22500 ÷ 225 × 40 = $4000
M/c. Operations 14000 ÷ 175 × 75 = $6000
Total Cost for 100 units $13,750
And since there is 100 units
So, the total indirect manufcturing cost per unit is
= $13,750 ÷100 units
= $137.50
A machine can be purchased for $140,000 and used for five years, yielding the following net incomes. In projecting net incomes, straight-line depreciation is applied, using a five-year life and a zero salvage value.
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5
Net income $ 9,500 $ 23,500 $ 64,000 $ 35,500 $ 94,000
Compute the machine’s payback period (ignore taxes). (Round your intermediate calculations to 3 decimal places and round payback period answer to 3 decimal places.)
Year Net Income Depreciation Net Cash Flow Cumulative Cash Flow

3 64,000
4 35,500 0
5 94,000 0
Payback period =
Answer:
2.554 years
Explanation:
Payback period calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.
to derive cash flow from net income, add depreciation back
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
$140,000 / 5 = $28,000
depreciation expense each year would be $28,000
cash flow in year 1 = $9500 + $28,000 = $37,500
cash flow in year 2= $23,500 + $28,000 =$51,500
cash flow in year 3 =$64,000 + $28,000 = $92,000
cash flow in year 4 =$35,500 + $28,000 = $63,500
cash flow in year 5 =$94,000 + $28,000 = $122,000
in year 1, the amount recovered = $-140,000 + $37,500 = $-102,500
in year 2, the amount recovered = $-102,500 + $51,500 = $-51,000
in year 3, the amount recovered = $-51,000 + $92,000 = $41,000
the amount invested is recovered in 2 years + 51,000 / 92,000 = 2.554 years
Suppose a Roasted Olive restaurant is considering whether to (1) bake bread for its restaurant in-house or (2) buy the bread from a local bakery. The chef estimates that variable costs of making each loaf include $.52 of ingredients, $.24 of variable overhead (electricity to run the oven), and $.70 of direct labor for kneading and forming the loaves. Allocating fixed overhead (depreciation on the kitchen equipment and building) based on direct labor assigns $.96 of fixed overhead per loaf. None of the fixed costs are avoidable. The local bakery would charge $1.75 per loaf.
a. What is the unit cost of making the bread in-house (use absorption costing)?
b. Should Roasted Olive bake the bread in-house or buy from the local bakery? Why?
Answer:
Roasted Olive should bake the bread in-house.
Because, It is cheaper to bake the bread in-house than to purchase as this saves $0.29 per loaf of bread.
Explanation:
Cost of Making
Unit Cost (Absorption Costing) = All Manufacturing Cost (Fixed and Variable)
= $0.52 + $0.24 + $0.70 + $0.96
= $2.42
Cost of Buying from Local Bakery
Note that the fixed costs are note avoidable, meaning that they would be incurred whether or not the bread is made internally or purchased from local Bakery
Cost of Purchase Option per unit :
Purchase Price $1.75
Add Fixed Overhead per loaf $0.96
Total unit cost $2.71
Conclusion :
It is cheaper to bake the bread in-house than to purchase as this saves ( $2.71 - $2.42) $0.29 per loaf of bread.
Therefore, Roasted Olive should bake the bread in-house.
UA Hamburger Hamlet (UAHH) places a daily order for its high-volume items (hamburger patties, buns, milk, and so on). UAHH counts its current inventory on hand once per day and phones in its order for delivery 24 hours later. Determine the number of hamburgers UAHH should order for the following conditions:
Average daily demand 600
Standard deviation of demand 100
Desired service probability 99%
Hamburger inventory 800
Answer:
730 items
Explanation:
The objective of the given information is to determine the number of hamburgers UAHH should order for the following conditions:
Average daily demand 600
Standard deviation of demand 100
Desired service probability 99%
Hamburger inventory 800
The formula for a given order quantity in a fixed period of time can be expressed as :
[tex]q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I[/tex]
where;
[tex]q[/tex] = order quantity = ???
[tex]\overline d[/tex] = daily demand average = 600
L = lead time in days = 1
T = time taken = 1
z = no of standard deviation = ???
[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = standard deviation of usage in lead time and time taken = ???
I = present inventory level = 800
[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt 2[/tex] × standard deviation of daily demand
[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{2} *100[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = 1.4142 * 100
[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = 141.42 items
From the Desired service probability 99% = 0.99; we can deduce the no of standard deviation by using the excel function (=NORMSINV (0.99))
z = 2.33
From [tex]q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I[/tex]
[tex]q =600(1+1)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800[/tex]
[tex]q =600(2)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800[/tex]
[tex]q =1200+329.5086-800[/tex]
q = 729.5086 items
q ≅ 730 items
Therefore; the number of hamburgers UAHH should order from the following given conditions = 730 items

Answer:
a. $64 per hour
b. Tortilla chips = $9.60, Potato chips = $7.68 , Pretzels = $6.40
Explanation:
Plant-wide factory overhead rate = Budgeted Overhead / Budgeted Activity
Calculation of Budgeted Overheads :
Hint : Consider only Indirect Manufacturing Costs
Factory depreciation $13,645
Indirect labor $33,817
Factory electricity $3,856
Indirect materials $8,010
Total $59,328
Calculation of Budgeted Hours :
Tortilla chips (1,500 × 0.15) = 225
Potato chips (3,600 × 0.12) = 432
Pretzels (2,700 × 0.10 ) = 270
Total = 927
Plant-wide factory overhead rate = $59,328 / 927
= $64 per hour
Factory overhead allocated to each of the three products :
Tortilla chips (0.15 × $64) = $9.60
Potato chips 0.12 × $64) = $7.68
Pretzels (0.10 × $64) = $6.40

Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Factory 1
Estimated factory overhead= $18,500,000
Estimated machine hours for year 1,250,000
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 18,500,000/1,250,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.8 per machine hour

Braynerd Chemicals sells 40 million shares of stock in an SEO—25 million being primary shares issued by the company and 15 million being secondary shares sold by investors in the company. At the time of the sale, Braynerd's stock was selling at $21.00 per share. If the underwriter charges 5% of the gross proceeds as a fee, how much money was raised in the sale?
Answer: $498.75 million
Explanation:
Of the 40 million shares sold by Braynerd Chemicals, 15 million were sold as secondary shares by investors in the company. The proceeds from these 15 million will therefore not go to the company but to the investors so they are not counted.
Gross total money raised will be;
= 25 million * 21.00
= $525 million
The Underwriter charges 5% of the gross amount as a fee so the Net amount raised will be;
Net Total = 525 * ( 1 - 5%)
Net Total = $498.75 million
Harmony Company sells handminusknit scarves. Each scarf sells for $ 45. The company pays $ 70 to rent vending space for one day. The variable costs are $ 12 per scarf. How many scarves should the company sell each day in order to break even? (Round your answer up to the nearest whole scarf.)
Answer:
2.12, rounded up to 3
Explanation:
To solve the equation, we first need to set up an equation.
Let x represent the number of scarves. We want one side of the equation to be the amount earned and the other to be the cost
45x is how much they earn since each scarf is $45
70+12x is how much they cost for rent and production
45x=70+12x
Subtract 12x from both sides
33x=70
Divide both sides by 33
x=2.12
It says we should round up so 3 scarves to break even

1. Peter applied for a job at an accounting firm and a consulting firm. He knows that 50% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the accounting firm; only 40% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the consulting firm Peter also knows that 60% of similarly qualified applicants receive an offer from one firm or the other. Hints: A
Answer:
75%
Explanation:
Assume that:
X is the probability that the Peter, qualified accountant would receive offer from the accounting firm AND
Y is the probability that the Peter, qualified accountant would receive offer from the consulting firm.
Here,
P(X) is 50%, P(Y) is 40% and P(X∪Y) is 60%
Now we want to find P(X/Y) = ?
We also know that:
P(X/Y) = P(X∩Y) STEP1 / P(Y)
By putting values, we have:
P(X/Y) = 0.3 / 0.4 = 0.75 = 75%
Step 1: Find P(X∩Y)
P(X∪Y) = P(X) + P(Y) - P(X∩Y)
This implies that:
P(X∩Y) = P(X) + P(Y) - P(X∪Y)
By putting values we have:
P(X∩Y) = 0.5 + 0.4 - 0.6 = 0.3
Discuss the requisite skills a person needs to lead change for a chosen organization. How can the organization’s structure accommodate change?
Explanation:
Organizational changes can create insecurity in workers, often caused by a lack of sufficient information and fear of the unknown.
Therefore, in the case of any organizational change, however small, it must be properly communicated to all employees, then communication is the essential ability of a leader to promote a transition of some practice or procedure in a rational, objective and clear way.
It is ideal that the leader knows how to communicate the changes using various channels, such as e-mail, panel, meetings, and explain in detail that the change will generate positive results for the work and for the organization, in order to make the workers safe and prepared.
It is also essential to provide adequate training in the event of changes in work, technological innovations, etc. The essential thing is that people management is geared towards the improvement of the employee along with the changes that are necessary and happen in every organization.
The risk-free rate is 4.5 percent and the market expected return is 10.8 percent. What is the expected return of a stock that has a beta of 1.30
Answer:
Expected return = 12.69%
Explanation:
The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model for estimating the return on a stock.. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk. Systematic risks are those which affect all economic actors in the market, they include factors like changes in interest rate, inflation, etc. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.
Under CAPM,
E(r)= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)
E(r)- expected return, Rf-risk-free rate , β= Beta, Rm= Return on market.
Using this model, we can work out the value of beta as follows:
β-1.30, Rf- 4.5%, Rm = 10.8%
E(r) = 4.5% + 1.30 × (10.8 - 4.5)%= 12.69
Expected return = 12.69%

You would expect a bond of the U.S. government to pay higher interestrate as compared to a bond of an Eastern European government.
A. True
B. False
Answer: False
Explanation:
Bond interest is determined in part by the riskiness of the Issuer of the bond. The United States is one of the most trust-worthy countries in the world and this is reflected by the US T-bills being considered a risk-free asset the world over.
The less risky an asset is, the less interest it has to pay as it does not have to compensate its investors for more added risk. A United States Bond is definitely safer than an Eastern European Government bond who are not as developed as the Western Europeans speaking in an unbiased manner. Therefore the US Bond will pay a lower interest relative to a bond of an Eastern European government.

Reno contributed $104,000 in cash plus equipment valued at $27,000 to the RD Partnership. The journal entry to record the transaction for the partnership is:
Answer:
Debit cash $104,000; debit equipment $27,000; credit Reno, Capital $131,000.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Reno contributed $104,000 in cash plus equipment valued at $27,000 to the RD Partnership. The journal entry to record the transaction for the partnership is debit cash $104,000; debit equipment $27,000; credit Reno, capital $131,000.
In Financial accounting, debit refers to an entry made which would either increase an expense or asset account; therefore, decreasing an equity or liability account. Credit refers to an entry made which would either increase an equity or liability account; therefore, decreasing an expense or asset account.
Generally, debit is an accounting entry which is made to the left of an account while credit is an accounting entry which is made to the right of an account. The standard rule is that, when a credit decreases an account, the opposite account should be increased with a debit.
Hence, in this case the RD Partnership will debit the cash received, $104,000 plus equipment valued at $27,000. Also, the opposite account or receivable account (Reno, capital) would be credited with $131,000 ($104,000+$27,000 = $131,000).

Baj Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate base on machine-hours that it recalculates at the beginning of each year. The company has provided the following data for the most recent year. Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead from the beginning of the year $ 534,000 Estimated activity level from the beginning of the year 30,000machine-hours Actual total fixed manufacturing overhead $ 487,000 Actual activity level 27,400machine-hours The predetermined overhead rate per machine-hour would be closest to:__________
A) $17.80
B) $19.49
C) $16.23
D) $17.77
Answer:
A) $17.80
Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined overhead rate per machine hour is shown below:
= Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead from the beginning of the year ÷ estimated activity level from the beginning year machine hours
= $534,000 ÷30,000 machine hours
= $17.80
We simply applied the above formula so that the predetermined overhead rate could come
The following data concerns a proposed equipment purchase: Cost $ 144,000 Salvage value $ 4,000 Estimated useful life 4 years Annual net cash flows $ 46,100 Depreciation method Straight-line Assuming that net cash flows are received evenly throughout the year, the accounting rate of return is (ignore income taxes):
Answer:Accounting rate of return = 15%
Explanation:
Accounting rate of return =Net income(Net cash flow - depreciation expense) / Average investment x 100
but depreciation = Cost of equipment - salvage value/ useful life
=(144,000 - 4000)/ 4= 140,000/ 4= $35,000
also,
Average Investment = Cost of equipment +salvage value /2
=( 144,000+4000)/ 2= 148,000 /2 = $74,000
Accounting rate of return =Net income(Net cash flow - depreciation expense) / Average investment x 100
(46,100 - 35,000)/ 74,000} x 100 =11,100/74,000=0.15 x 100= 15%

Hernandez, Inc. signed a ten-year noncancelable lease for a heavy duty drill press. The lease stipulated annual payments of $300,000 starting at the beginning of the first year, with title passing to Hernandez at the expiration of the lease. Hernandez treated this transaction as a operating lease. The drill press has an estimated useful life of 15 years, with no salvage value. Hernandez uses straight-line amortization for all of its plant assets. Aggregate lease payments were determined to have a present value of $1,800,000, based on implicit interest of 10%. What amount of amortization expense should be recorded for 2021?
Answer: $120,000
Explanation:
Depreciation is to be based on the cost of the asset being depreciated. In this scenario, the cost of the heavy duty drill press will be the Present Value of all the lease payments for the entire 10 years because it is said that the title will pass to Hernandez Inc. afterwards so the lease payments can be considered as payment.
Straight Line Amortisation = [tex]\frac{Cost of Asset - Salvage Value}{Estimated Useful Life}[/tex]
Straight Line Amortisation = [tex]\frac{1,800,000 - 0}{15}[/tex]
Straight Line Amortisation = $120,000 per year
