Answer:
1. Prepare journal entries to record the sale of merchandise (omit any entry that might be required for the cost of the goods sold), any December 31, 2021 interest accrual, and the March 31, 2022 collection.
June 30, 2021, merchandise sold in exchange for note receivable
Dr Notes receivable 40,000
Cr Sales revenue 37,600
Cr Unearned interest revenue 2,400
December 31, 2021, accrued interests (= $2,400 x 6/9)
Dr Unearned interest revenue 1,600
Cr Interest revenue 1,600
March 31, 2022, note receivable is collected
Dr Cash 40,000
Cr Note receivable 40,000
Dr Unearned interest revenue 800
Cr Interest revenue 800
2. What is the effective interest rate on the note
effective period rate = $2,400 / $37,600 = 6.3829% (for 9 months)
annual rate = 6.3829% x 12/9 = 8.51%
You are the new manager in an Indian office. You ask one of your supervisors to move a desk and place it in another corner of the office. The next day you notice it has not yet been done. Why
Answer:
Explanation:
Since not much information has been provided, the two most likely reasons as to why this has not been done would be the following,
One would be that the supervisor did not understand your request due to language barriers that you are not accustomed to since this is your first time working in an Indian office.
The Second most likely reason is that it is not the supervisors job to move your office furniture around. The supervisor is a higher position than manager and his primary responsibility is to look over your performance and make sure that you are doing what you have been hired to do.
The company can manufacture either two food processors per machine hour or three espresso machines per machine hour. The company's production capacity is 1,200 machine hours per month. What is the contribution margin per machine hour for food processors?
Answer:
The contribution margin per machine hour is $150.
Explanation:
Note: The missing part of the question is
Food Processor Espresso Machines
Sales price $125 $225
Variable costs $50 $150
Solution
Contribution Margin per Machine = Sales Price - Variable Cost
=$125 - $50
=$75
Contribution Margin = Contribution per Machine × Number of Machines Produced in 1 Machine Hour
= $75 * 2
= $150
Thus, the contribution margin per machine hour for food processors is $150.
Jay Seago is suing the manufacturer of his car for $3.5 million because of a defect that he believes caused him to have an accident. The accident kept him out of work for a year. The company has offered him a settlement of $700,000, of which Jay would receive $600,000 after attorneys’ fees. His attorney has advised him that he has a 50% chance of winning his case. If he loses, he will incur attorneys’ fees and court costs of $75,000. If he wins, he is not guaranteed his full requested settlement. His attorney believes that there is a 50% chance he could receive the full settlement, in which case Jay would realize $2 million after his attorney takes her cut, and a 50% chance that the jury will award him a lesser amount of $1 million, of which Jay would get $500,000. Using decision tree analysis, decide whether Jay should proceed with his lawsuit against the manufacturer.
Answer:
Since the expected value is higher for not suing ($600,000), then Jay should not sue. The expected value of the best case scenario in case of suing is only $500,000 and in the expected value of the worst case scenario is -$37,500.
Explanation:
he decides to not sue = expected value $600,000
he decides to sue:
50% chance of winning
expected value
$2,000,000 x 50% x 50% = $500,000$500,000 x 50% x 50% = $125,00050% chance of losing
expected value = -$75,000 x 50% = -$37,500A push strategy will be used by a company that wants to Multiple Choice emphasize personal selling. focus on mass media advertising. reach as many people as possible very quickly. require very little involvement of a sales force. rely heavily on online advertising.
Answer:
Emphasize personal selling
Explanation:
The push strategy emphasizes personal selling. It consists on bringing the product to the final customer, and making sure that most of the potential customers end up buying the product.
The push strategy is specially used by new companies, or by companies that sell goods that are complex. For this type of products (for example, some consumer electronics), emphasizinig personal selling by having the seller interact directly with the customer, in order to explain to the customer the product well, is very important.
Equipment was purchased for $78000 on January 1, 2018. Freight charges amounted to $4400 and there was a cost of $10400 for building a foundation and installing the equipment. It is estimated that the equipment will have a $15100 salvage value at the end of its 5-year useful life. What is the amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019, if the straight-line method of depreciation is used
Answer:
The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019 is $31,080
Explanation:
Straight line method, charges a fixed amount of depreciation over the use of an asset in the business.
Depreciation Expense Using Straight line method is calculated as :
Depreciation Expense = (Cost - Salvage Value) / Estimated useful life
First step is to determine the cost of the equipment.
Calculation of Cost of Equipment :
Purchase price $78,000
Freight charges $4,400
Installation costs $10,400
Total Costs $92,800
Then calculate the depreciation expense :
Depreciation Expense = ($92,800 - $15,100) / 5 years
= $15,540
Accumulated depreciation by December 31, 2019 is calculated as :
Accumulated depreciation = $15,540 × 2
= $31,080
Conclusion :
The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019 is $31,080.

North Dakota Electric Company estimates its demand trend line (in millions of kilowatt hours) to be:
D= 77 +0.43Q
where Q refers to the sequential quarter number and Q=1 for winter of year 1. In addition, the multiplicative seasonal factors are as follows:
Quarter Factor (index)
winter .8
spring 1.1
summer 1.4
fall .7
Find the forecast of for the four quarters of year of 17.
Answer:
The demand forecast for the four quarters of the year of 17 is
Demand for winter of year 17 = 83.96 million kWh
Demand for spring of year 17 = 115.92 million kWh
Demand for summer of year 17 = 148.13 million kWh
Demand for fall of year 17 = 74.37 million kWh
Explanation:
The North Dakota Electric Company estimates its demand trend line by the following equation.
[tex]D = 77 + 0.43Q[/tex]
Where Q is the sequential quarter number.
The multiplicative seasonal factors are as follows:
winter = 0.8
spring = 1.1
summer = 1.4
fall = 0.7
We are asked to find the forecast for the four quarters of the year of 17.
Since the quarter numbers are sequential,
Q = 1 + 16×4
Q = 65 for winter of year 17
Q = 66 for spring of year 17
Q = 67 for summer of year 17
Q = 68 for fall of year 17
Demand Winter year 17:
[tex]D = 77 + 0.43(65) = 104.95 \times 0.8 = 83.96[/tex]
Demand Spring year 17:
[tex]D = 77 + 0.43(66) = 105.38 \times 1.1 = 115.92[/tex]
Demand Summer year 17:
[tex]D = 77 + 0.43(67) = 105.81 \times 1.4 = 148.13[/tex]
Demand Fall year 17:
[tex]D = 77 + 0.43(68) = 106.24 \times 0.7 = 74.37[/tex]
Therefore, the demand forecast for the four quarters of the year of 17 is
Demand for winter of year 17 = 83.96 million kWh
Demand for spring of year 17 = 115.92 million kWh
Demand for summer of year 17 = 148.13 million kWh
Demand for fall of year 17 = 74.37 million kWh
Dée Trader opens a brokerage account and purchases 300 shares of Internet Dreams at $40 per share. She borrows $4,000 from her broker to help pay for the purchase. The interest rate on the loan is 8%. a. What is the margin in Dée’s account when she first purchases the stock?
Answer:
Margin in Dee's account when she first purchase the stock is $8,000
Explanation:
The total value of stock purchased = $40 × 300 shares = $12,000
Since the amount borrowed from the broker is $4,000. Therefore, Dee's margin will be calculated as;
= Total purchase price - Net borrowing
= $12,000 - $4,000
= $8,000
In theory, Texas has a dual-budget system, meaning the budget authority is shared by the governor and the legislature; however, in practice, the primary player(s) in the budget is/are
Answer:
The legislature.
Explanation:
A budget can be defined as a financial plan of estimated revenues, resources and expenses over a specific period of time in a particular country. It is usually reevaluated based on future plans and objectives periodically, typically on an annual basis.
In theory, Texas has a dual-budget system, meaning the budget authority is shared by the governor and the legislature; however, in practice, the primary player in the budget is the legislature.
In accordance with the guidelines set by the Legislative Budget Board (LBB) in Texas, all agencies in the state prepares and send a Legislative Appropriations Request (LAR) to the Legislative Budget Board (LBB) and the Governor’s Office of Budget, Planning and Policy (GOBPP).
The legislature is the primary player in the budget process because it is responsible for reviewing the budget proposals through the House Finance Committees and the Senate.
The legislature being the primary player in the budget comprises of ten (10) members from the Texas House of Representatives and Texas Senate, it is chaired by the Lieutenant Governor. A single bill is then passed after the appropriation bill has been voted on by the respective chambers.
Additionally, the single bill is then sent to the Comptroller's office for verification and certification, and lastly it's signed by the Governor into law.
If increasing the number of goods produced is one way to increase productivity what is the other way to increase productivity?
A. Raise the price of the goods
B. Decrease the resources invested
C. Increase market share
D. Lower the quality of the materials used
Answer:
Explanation:
Start with D. You might be able to make a cheaper product and increase your profit margin, but eventually the word would would get around and it may lower your productivity because the sales would decrease.
The market determines whether or not you would be able increase the market share. I suppose this answer is possible, but it would mean that you would need to have capital to do it. The market need not cooperate. I wouldn't pick C unless I had to.
How can you reduce the resources invested? That should decrease the number of objects originally need for manufacturing the poduct in the first place. Not B.
Raise the price of the goods? How can that help? That increases the profit margin, not the number of goods produced.
I don't know what the best answer is out of these 4. None of them seem appropriate.
If I had to choose, I guess the best one is D
Answer:
im pretty its C
Explanation:
A manufacturer of hardboard and fiber cement sidings and panels purchased new equipment for its new product line for $20,000. A declining balance depreciation at a rate of 1.5 times the straight line rate with a 5-year recovery period and an estimated salvage value of $8000 was used to write off the capital investment. The company expects to realize net revenue of $57,000 each year for the next 5 years. However, due to the sudden change in business direction, the company decided to sell the equipment after 2 years of operation for $21,000. Assuming an effective tax of 40% and an after-tax MARR of 12% per year, calculate the future worth of the after-tax cash flow at the end of year 2.(HINT: skip $ and comma symbols) Year BTCF ATCF 0 -20000 -20,000 1 57,000 36,600.00 2a 57,000 35,880.00 2b 25579 ...
Answer:
Hello from your question there is a mix up of the figures for the BTCF AFTER 2 years and the BTCF given in the table so i would work with the value contained in the table i.e ( 25579 )
answer : 71052
Explanation:
Declining balance amount can be expressed/calculated using this formula a
[tex]\frac{1.5}{N} ; d_{k} = B ( 1 - k )^{k-1} (R ) ;\\ Bv_{k} = B ( 1 - R )^{k}[/tex] also R = 1.5 / 5 = 0.3 , k = 2 years
therefore Bv[tex]_{2}[/tex] = 20000 ( 1 - 0.3 [tex])^{2}[/tex] = 9800
Mv = 25579
Recapturing depreciation = Mv - Bv = 25579 - 9800 = 15779
BTCF is calculated as = ( capital investment + GI - expense incurred )
TI = GI - Expense - Depreciation + Depreciation recapture + capital gain
ATCF = BTCF - taxes
taxes = TI (l)
The future worth of the after-tax cash flow at the end of Year 2
Fw = -20000(f/p,12%,2) + 36600(f/p,12,1) + 35880 + 19268
= -20000(1.2544) + 36600(1.1200) + 55148 = 71052
attached below is the complete table used for the calculation

Bethesda Water has an issue of preferred stock outstanding with a coupon rate of 4.80 percent that sells for $92.78 per share. If the par value is $100, what is the cost of the company's preferred stock?
Answer:
Cost of preferred stock=5.17%
Explanation:
A preferred stock entitles its investor to a fixed amount of dividend for the foreseeable future. The dividend payable by a preferred stock is similar to a perpetuity. Hence, the price of the stock would be the same as the present value of the dividend payable for the foreseeable future.
A preferred stock entitles its owner to a fixed amount of dividend. It is calculated as follows:
Cost of preferred stock = (Preference dividend/stock price ) × 100
Preference dividend = Coupon rate × Nominal value
DATA
Coupon = 4.80%
Nominal Value = 100
Stock price = $92.78
Preference dividend = 4.80% × 100=4.8
Cost of preferred stock = 4.8/92.78× 100 = 5.17%
Cost of preferred stock=5.17%

Which of the following markets has a barrier to entry? A. There are already many fast food restaurants in the City of Buffalo. B. Stan's Garbage Company runs the only trash collection service in town. C. Crystal develops a new product and patents it. D. Gold can only be mined in certain places in the world.
Answer: C. Crystal develops a new product and patents it.
Explanation:
A Patent is one of the ways that a monopoly can be formed in an industry. A Patent is a government issued guarantee that other entities should not tamper with the product that was patented unless they get permission from the patentee to do so.
Patents in the United States usually last for 20 years and in that time only the people who patented it may use it. This is a Government enforced barrier to entry as other companies cannot make the product in question thereby creating a monopoly for the people that did patent it.
QS 18-9 CVP analysis and target income LO P2 SBD Phone Company sells its waterproof phone case for $107 per unit. Fixed costs total $197,000, and variable costs are $32 per unit. Compute the units of product that must be sold to earn pretax income of $224,500.
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 5,620 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $107 per unit.
Fixed costs total $197,000
Variable costs= $32 per unit.
Desired profit= $224,500
To calculate the number of units required to reach the objective, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (197,000 + 224,500) / (107 - 32)
Break-even point in units= 5,620 units
When labor productivity increases over time, generally A) it is due to increases in the number of workers b) so do average wages C) it results in higher prices for goods and services .
Answer:
b) so do average wages
Explanation:
In perfect competition's equilibrium, productive factors are paid according to their marginal productivity. This means that productive factors' payments will be directly explained by their productivity. This comes from the fact that a firm maximizes profits, subject to its budget constraint, in an optimal way. Equilibrium solution will result in the following condition: [tex]\frac{MP_L}{MP_K} =\frac{P_L}{P_K}=\frac{Wages}{P_K}[/tex], where [tex]MP_L[/tex] is the marginal productivity of labour and [tex]PM_K[/tex] is the marginal product of capital,[tex]P_L[/tex] is the price of labour (or wages) and [tex]P_K[/tex] is the price of capital. Then, because the price of labour is proportional to its productivity, if labour productivity rises, the price of labour will increase.In the multiple-step income statement, cost of merchandise sold is subtracted from a.selling expenses. b.sales. c.gross profit. d.operating expenses.
Answer:
b.sales
Explanation:
As we know that
Income statement refers to the statement in which the revenues and the expenses incurred should be recorded
While on the other hand the multiple-step income statement refer to the statement in which there are various level like gross profit, total operating expenses etc
Plus we also know that
Gross profit = Sales - cost of goods sold
Therefore the cost of merchandise should be deducted from sales so that we can find out the gross profit
A company incurs $2,700,000 of overhead each year in three departments: Ordering and Receiving, Mixing,?
and Testing. The company prepares 2,000 purchase orders, works 50,000 mixing hours, and performs 1,500 tests per year in producing 200,000 drums of Goo and 600,000 drums of Slime. The following data are available:
Department Expected use of Driver Cost
Ordering and Receiving 2,000 $800,000
Mixing 50,000 1,000,000
Testing 1,500 900,000
Production information for Slime is as follows:
Expected use of Driver
Ordering and Receiving 1,600
Mixing 30,000
Testing 1,000
Compute the amount of overhead assigned to Slime.
a) $1,350,000
b) $2,025,000
c) $1,645,234d) $1,840,000
Answer:
Total allocated overhead= $1,840,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Department Expected use of Driver Cost
Ordering and Receiving 2,000 $800,000
Mixing 50,000 1,000,000
Testing 1,500 900,000
Production information for Slime is as follows:
Expected use of Driver
Ordering and Receiving 1,600
Mixing 30,000
Testing 1,000
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each activity:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Ordering and Receiving= 800,000/2,000= $400 per order
Mixing= 1,000,000/50,000= $20 per mixing hour
Testing= 900,000/1,500 = $600 per test
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Ordering and Receiving= 400*1,600= 640,000
Mixing=20*30,000= 600,000
Testing= 600*1,000= 600,000
Total allocated overhead= $1,840,000

Solution
Percentage of market share and rate of on-time deliveries are indicators of the customer perspective or view
Customer: A customer is a person or business that buys another company's goods or services. most public-facing businesses participate with other companies to attract customers, either by forcefully advertising their products or by reducing prices to broaden their customer bases.
Sandpiper Inc. has a division that manufactures a component that sells for $ 160$160 and has a variable cost of $ 30$30. Another division of the company wants to purchase the component. Fixed cost per unit of the component is $ 20$20. What is the minimum transfer price if the division is operating at capacity?
Answer:
If the division is operating at full capacity and selling all the units that it produces, then it must treat the other division as a normal customer, so the selling price should be the same ($160 per unit). The company is currently making $110 in profits per unit sold (= $160 - $30 - $20 = $110).
If the division sold their products at a lower price, they would be losing money, and no division wants to lose money in order to benefit another division and make them earn higher profits.
If the division was operating below full capacity, then it could sell their products at a lower value.

Answer:
is useful to the IRS in assessing taxes to business entities.
Explanation:
The financial accounting standards board (FASB) is a private, non-profit organization saddled with the responsibility of establishing and maintaining standard financial accounting and reporting for general guidance of individuals such as investors, issuers and auditors.
Financial reporting can be defined as the formal communication or disclosure of financial information and statements to present and potential users such as investors and creditors.
The objective of financial reporting include all of the following to provide information that:
1. Is useful to those making investment decisions. This information would help creditors to determine whether they should lend to a client or not; or assist investors in deciding whether they should invest in a business or not.
2. Is useful to those lending out money to business entities. When investors and creditors are well furnished with financial information about an organization, they would be able to assess the amounts of cash, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows from dividends or interest.
3. Is useful to creditors in making decisions about providing resources to business entities.
In conclusion, the financial report is not useful to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in assessing taxes to business entities.

Answer:
This is an example of barter
Explanation:
Barter in trade, is a term used to describe a system of exchange where goods and services are exchanged for other goods or services directly. It is used most often in international trading, when there is a financial crisis, or when currency is unstable.
Barter is advantageous when money is in short supply, and when traders cannot afford to store a short supply of money, especially during hyperinflation.
However, there are some challenges with barter, which includes:
that both parties might not have what each other need in goods (double coincidence of wants), there is no common measure of value and indivisibility of certain goods when only half the worth is to be exchanged.

Which of the following are restrictive covenants often used to protect the firm’s bond value and bondholder wealth? Check all that apply. Provisions that require firing the firm’s CEO whenever the firm’s bond price decreases by more than 15% Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels Provisions that require issuing new debt securities whenever interest rates drop below 5%
Answer:
1. Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels.
2. Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels.
Explanation:
A bond refers to a fixed income instrument that signifies the indebtedness of the borrower to the bond issuer (investor or creditor). Basically, they are loans that are given to government or large corporations.
This simply means that, when a bondholder or creditor purchases a bond, an agreed amount of money is being borrowed to the bond issuer as a loan. As a result of the loan being borrowed, the bond issuer is required to pay an interest with a return of principal at maturity to the bondholder (investor or creditor).
A bond covenant can be defined as a standard and legally binding agreement between an investor or creditor (bondholder) and the issuer of a bond (bond issuer) in order to protect their respective interests. The bond covenant is classified into two (2) categories;
1. Positive or affirmative covenants: which states certain requirements that must be met by the bond issuer.
2. Negative or restrictive covenants: which states certain actions that are forbidden to the bond issuer.
The following are restrictive covenants often used to protect the firm’s bond value and bondholder wealth;
1. Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels.
2. Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels.
The restrictive covenants are written directly in the trust indenture or bond deed. Also note, the more the restrictive covenants that exists in a bond, the lower its interest rate because it makes the bond appear safer.
Given these observed times (in minutes) for four elements of a job, determine the observed time (OT) for each element. Note: the second element only occurs every other cycle.
Element Cycle 1 Cycle 2 Cycle 3 Cycle 4 Cycle 5 Cycle 6
1 4.1 4.0 4.6 4.1 4.1 4.1
2 - 1.5 - 2.4 - 1.4
3 3.2 3.2 3.8 3.2 3.3 3.3
4 2.7 3.0 2.7 2.8 2.8 2.8
Answer:
Element 1 = 4.17 Observed time
Element 2 = 1.77 Observed time
Element 3 = 3.33 Observed time
Element 4 = 2.8 Observed time
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the observed time (OT) for each element
Based on the information given we have 4 Element and 6 Cycle for Element 1,3 and 4 while Element 2 has 3 cycle
First step is sum up each element cycle i.e addition of cycle 1 to cycle 6
Element Cycle 1 Cycle 2 Cycle 3 Cycle 4 Cycle 5 Cycle 6
1. 4.1 +4.0 +4.6 + 4.1 +4.1 + 4.1 = 25
2. - 1.5 - 2.4 - 1.4 =(1.5+2.4+1.4)=5.3
3. 3.2 +3.2 +3.8 +3.2+ 3.3 +3.3= 20
4. 2.7 +3.0 +2.7 +2.8 +2.8+ 2.8 = 16.8
Now let find the Observed time by dividing the figure that was sum up for each of the element by the numbers of cycle that each element has.
OBSERVED TIME
Element Cycle 1 Cycle 2 Cycle 3 Cycle 4 Cycle 5 Cycle 6
1. 4.1 +4.0 +4.6 + 4.1 +4.1 + 4.1 = 25/6= 4.17 Observed time
2. - 1.5 - 2.4 - 1.4 =(1.5+2.4+1.4)=5.3/3=1.77 Observed time
3. 3.2 +3.2 +3.8 +3.2+ 3.3 +3.3= 20/6= 3.33 Observed time
4. 2.7 +3.0 +2.7 +2.8 +2.8+ 2.8 = 16.8/6=2.8 Observed time
The question is about the observed time cycles of 4 given elements.
OT of each cycles will be added together for each element. and divided by total number of cycles for each element.
1 4.1+4.0+4.6+4.1+4.1+4.1 = 25 / 6 = 4.17
2 -1.5 -2.4 -1.4 = 5.3 / 3 = 1.77
3 3.2+3.2+3.8+3.2+3.3+3.3 = 20 / 6 = 3.33
4 2.7+3.0+2.7+2.8+2.8+2.8 = 16.8 / 6 = 2.8
Each elements total cycle OT is added and then it is divided with each elements relevant number of cycles and this as a result provides the answer to the question
