Answer:
$1,296.90
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the least that each of the bonds is worth today
First step is to calculate the stock each bond worth
Stock each bond worth=20 shares ×$65
Stock each bond worth= $1,300
Second step is to calculate what the bond is each worth using this formula
PV= PMT[PVFAk,n] + FV[PVFk,n]
Let plug in the formula
PV= $55[PVFA4,40] + $1,000[PVF4,40]
PV= $55(19.7928) + $1,000(.2083)
PV= $1,088.60 + $208.30
PV= $1,296.90
Therefore Based on the above calculation the least that each of the bonds is worth today is $1,296.90

Answer:
A. Dr Finished Goods $560,240.00
Cr Work In Process $560,240.00
B. $76,760.00
Explanation:
A. Preparation of the journal entry to record the jobs complete
First step is to Calculate the amount of total jobs completed
Job 210 182,500.00
Job 224 232,190.00
Job 216 78,300.00
Job 230 67,250.00
Cost of completed jobs 560,240.00
(182,500.00+232,190.00+78,300.00+67,250.00)
Now let prepare the Journal Entry
Dr Finished Goods $560,240.00
Cr Work In Process $560,240.00
B. Calculation to Determine the cost of the unfinished jobs at January 31.
First step is to calculate the work in process Amount
Balance at January 1 85,800.00
Add Direct Materials 115,000.00
Add Direct Labor 140,000.00
Add Factory Overhead 296,200.00
Balance in work in process 637,000.00
Now let determine the cost of the unfinished jobs at January 31
Balance in work in process 637,000.00
Less: Cost of completed jobs 560,240.00
Cost of unfinished jobs on January 31 76,760.00
Therefore the cost of the unfinished jobs at January 31 will be $76,760.00
The aggregate demand aggregate supply mode is quite useful tool for us to understand the economy. So far, we saw only one change at a time, however, in reality, there can be multiple shocks at the same time. The economy was in long run equilibrium. Assuming all else equal, world scientists collaborated to invent a vaccine for everyone to be safe from deadly virus, raising productivity. This makes consumers and businesses optimist about the economy. At the same time, commodity market, namely oil market is calm, maintaining a stable supply.
1. Given above scenario, what do you think will happen to the LRAS, SRAS and AD curves in each in short run?
2. And what would happen to price level and output in the economy?
3. What about in long run?
Answer:
Explained below
Explanation:
1) From the question, we can deduce that in the short run, there will likely be news of the discovery/invention of a super vaccine which will make the consumers and the businesses to be optimistic about the future of the economy. Therefore, this will in turn lead to an increase in consumption by consumers and thus also lead to an producers making an increase in investment.
2) From answer 1 above, since there is an increase in consumption as well as investment, this will in turn also lead to an increase in the aggregate demand of the economy. Whereas, we are told that the oil market is calm and therefore we can say it does not have an effect on the supply curve.
From the first image attached, increase in the aggregate demand led to an increase in price level from point P to P1 on the y-axis while output output level increased from point Y to point Y1 on the x-axis.
3) In the long run, due to the increase in demand in the short run that makes the supply curve shift to its right, it means the producers will have more of the goods produced. This will in turn reduce the price to its initial level and also increase the output level. From the second diagram, this will lead to a shift long run aggregate supply from LRAS to LRAS1 on the x-axis.

Cincinnati Exporters wants to raise $40 million to expand its business. To accomplish this, it plans to sell 22-year, $1,000 face value, semiannual coupon bonds. The bonds will be priced to yield 6.85 percent and coupon rate of 5.72 percent. What is the minimum number of bonds it must sell to raise the money it needs
Answer:
Minimum number of units to be issued = 45,791.4 units
Explanation:
The units of the bonds to be sold to raise the money equals to the price of the bonds divided by the sum to be raised
The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.
These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value
The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payment
Semi-annual coupon rate = 5.72/2 = 2.86 %
Semi-annual Interest payment =( 2.86 %×$1000)= $28.6
Semi annual yield = 6.85%/2 = 3.42%
PV of interest payment
= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r
A- interest payment, r- yield -3.42%, n- no of periods- 2 × 22 = 44 periods
= 28.6× (1-(1.0342)^(-44)/0.0342)= 645.82
Step 2
PV of redemption value (RV)
PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)
RV - redemption value- $1000, n- 7, r- 4.5%
= 1,000 × (1+0.0342)^(-2×22)
= 1000 × 1.0342^(-44)= 227.7
Step 3
Price of bond = PV of interest payment + PV of RV
645.82 + 227.7= 873.525
Minimum number of units to be issued = $40 million/873.5= 45,791.4 units
Minimum number of units to be issued = 45,791.4 units
Dallas Company uses a job order costing system. The company's executives estimated that direct labor would be $4,590,000 (270,000 hours at $17/hour) and that factory overhead would be $1,570,000 for the current period. At the end of the period, the records show that there had been 250,000 hours of direct labor and $1,270,000 of actual overhead costs. Using direct labor hours as a base, what was the predetermined overhead rate? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Answer: $5.82 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
The predetermined overhead rate will be calculated as:
= Estimated overhead cost / Estimated direct labor hours
= 1570000/270000
= 5.82 per direct labor hour
Therefore, the predetermined overhead rate will be $5.82 per direct labor hour
Swifty Hardware reported cost of goods sold as follows. 2022 2021 Beginning inventory $ 31,000 $ 21,500 Cost of goods purchased 203,500 153,000 Cost of goods available for sale 234,500 174,500 Less: Ending inventory 35,000 31,000 Cost of goods sold $199,500 $143,500 Swifty made two errors: 1. 2021 ending inventory was overstated by $3,600. 2. 2022 ending inventory was understated by $6,550. Compute the correct cost of goods sold for each year. 2022 2021 Cost of goods sold
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. Correct amount of cost of goods sold 2022
= beginning inventory + cost of goods purchased - correct ending inventory
= $31,000 + $203,500 - ($35,000 - $6,550)
= $234,500 - $28,450
= $206,050
2.Correct amount of cost of goods sold 2021
= $21,500 + $153,000 - ($31,000 - $3,600)
= $139,900
The BX11160 company has provided its contribution format income statement for a given month. Sales (8,000 units) $ 440,000 Variable expenses 280,000 Contribution margin 160,000 Fixed expenses 103,500 Net operating income $ 56,500 If the BX11160 company sells 7,900 units next month, how much would its net operating income expected to be next month? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Net operating income= $48,500
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= 160,000 / 8,000
unitary contribution margin= $20
Now, the net income for 7,600 units:
Contribution margin= 7,600*20= 152,000
Fixed expenses= (103,500)
Net operating income= $48,500

Answer:
Net Income = $33,820
Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity = $108,620
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as the introductory paragraph and the numbering are omitted. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
The Pet Store experienced the following events for the Year 1 accounting period:
1. Acquired $70,000 cash from the issue of common stock.
2. Purchased $61,000 of inventory on account.
3. Received goods purchased in Event 2 FOB shipping point; freight cost of $1,870 paid in cash.
4. Sold inventory on account that cost $51,000 for $97,000.
5. Freight cost on the goods sold in Event 4 was $1,020. The goods were shipped FOB destination. Cash was paid for the freight cost.
6. Customer in Event 4 returned $4,540 worth of goods that had a cost of $2,320.
7. Collected $79,540 cash from accounts receivable.
8. Paid $56,200 cash on accounts payable.
9. Paid $3,020 for advertising expense.
10. Paid $4,050 cash for insurance expense.
Required:
a. Which of these events affect period (selling and administrative) costs? Which result in product costs? If neither, label the transaction NA.
b. Record each event in a horizontal statements model. The first event is recorded as an example. (In the Cash Flow column, use OA to designate operating activity, IA for investment activity, FA for financing activity, NC for net change in cash, and NA to indicate the element is not affected by the event. Enter any decreases to account balances and cash outflows with a minus sign.)
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
a. Which of these events affect period (selling and administrative) costs? Which result in product costs? If neither, label the transaction NA.
Period costs are costs that include selling and asministrative costs which are not related to cost of producing a product.
Product costs can be described as costs of creating or producing a product that is meant for sale to customers.
Therefore, we have:
Event Cost
1 . NA
2. Product costs
3. Product costs
4. NA
5. NA
6. NA
7. NA
8. NA
9. Period costs
10. Period costs
b. Record each event in a horizontal statements model. The first event is recorded as an example. (In the Cash Flow column, use OA to designate operating activity, IA for investment activity, FA for financing activity, NC for net change in cash, and NA to indicate the element is not affected by the event. Enter any decreases to account balances and cash outflows with a minus sign.)
Note: See the attache excel file for the horizontal statements.

Amrik started a business on 1 January 2017 and purchased a machine costing $18 000. He decided to depreciate the machine at 20% per annum using the reducing (diminishing) balance method. No depreciation was to be charged in the year of disposal. The machine was up sold for \$13 30 300 on 1 July 2018. What was the profit or loss on the sale of the machine? A Loss $1100 B Loss $4700 C Profit $1780 D Profit $2500 ОА Ов Ос OD
Answer: A. Loss $1,100
Explanation:
Value at the end of the first year after depreciation:
= 18,000 * (1 - 20%)
= $14,400
No depreciation was charged in the year of sale which is 2018 so only a year of depreciation applies.
Profit (loss) = Sales price - Net book value
= 13,300 - 14,400
= -$1,100
Manufacturing uses normal costing for its job-costing system, which has two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct manufacturing labor) and one indirect-cost category (manufacturing overhead). The following information is obtained for:_____.
• Total manufacturing costs, $8,450,000 • Manufacturing overhead allocated, $3,750,000 (allocated at a rate of 250% of direct manufacturing labor costs) • Work-in-process inventory on January 1, 2017, $390,000 • Cost of finished goods manufactured, $8,020,000
Requirements:
1. Use information in the first two bullet points to calculate (a) direct manufacturing labor costs in and (b) cost of direct materials used in .
2. Calculate the ending work-in-process inventory on December 31, 2011.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Total manufacturing costs, $8,450,000
Manufacturing overhead allocated, $3,750,000 (allocated at a rate of 250% of direct manufacturing labor costs)
Work-in-process inventory on January 1, 2017, $390,000
Cost of finished goods manufactured, $8,020,000
First, we need to calculate the direct material and direct labor:
Direct labor= Manufacturing overhead allocated/2.5
Direct labor= 3,375,000 / 2.5
Direct labor= $1,350,000
Total manufacturing costs= Direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead
8,450,000= Direct material + 1,350,000 + 3,375,000
Direct material= $3,725,000
Finally, the ending work-in-process:
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
8,020,000= 390,000 + 8,450,000 - Ending WIP
Ending WIP= $820,000

A company expects to pay a dividend of $3.50 per share one year from today. the dividend is expected to grow at 30 percent per year for three years. Thereafter, the dividend will grow at 4 percent per year in perpetuity. if the appropriate discount rate for the stock is 13 percent, what is the price of the stock today
Answer: $70
Explanation:
Price = Present value of year 1 dividend + Present value of year 2 dividend + Present value of year 3 dividend + Present value of year 4 dividend + Present value of year 4 price
Year 4 price = Year 4 dividend / ( Required return - Growth rate after 3 years)
= (3.50 * 1.30³ * 1.04) / (13% - 4%)
= $88.856
Price = (3.50 / (1 + 13%)) + ( (3.50 * 1.3) / 1.13²) + ( (3.50 * 1.3²) / 1.13³) + ( (3.50 * 1.3³) / 1.13⁴) + 88.856/1.13⁴
= $69.97
= $70

Minstrel Manufacturing uses a job order costing system. During one month, Minstrel purchased $226,800 of raw materials on credit; issued materials to production of $219,000 of which $37,200 were indirect. Minstrel incurred a factory payroll of $164,400, of which $47,200 was indirect labor. Minstrel uses a predetermined overhead application rate of 150% of direct labor cost. Minstrel's beginning and ending Work in Process Inventory are $17,900 and $31,800 respectively. Compute the cost of jobs transferred to Finished Goods Inventory.
Answer:
$460,900
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of jobs transferred to Finished Goods Inventory is shown below:
= beginning wip + Direct material + direct labor + manufacturing overhead - closing wip
= $17,900 + ($219,000 - $37,200) + ($164,400 - $47,200) + 150% of $117,200 - $31,800
= $17,900 + $181,800 + $117,200 + $175,800 - $31,800
= $460,900

Margerit is reviewing a project with projected sales of 1,500 units a year, a cashflow of $40 a unit and a three-year project life. The initial cost of the project is$95,000. The relevant discount rate is 15%. Margerit has the option to abandonthe project after one year at which time she feels she could sell the project for$60,000. At what level of sales should she be willing to abandon the project
Answer: 923 units
Explanation:
Margerit should abandon the project in a year if the cashflow associated with the project brings in a present value of less than or equal to $60,000 in a year.
The present value in year one should be set at $60,000.
The cashflow for the two years at a present value of $60,000 would be:
60,000 = Amount * Present value interest factor of an annuity, 2 periods, 15%
60,000 = Amount * 1.6257
Amount = 60,000 / 1.6257
= $36,907
The above is the amount received per sales that she should abandon the project at.
In units this is:
= 36,907 / 40 per unit
= 923 units

2) Ralph Wood, the Vice President for Marketing, is planning to fly in his eight area sales managers for a yearly planning session. Sarah Sayre, the Vice President for Finance, complains that the company is in a weak, cash position and looks to Bill for a technological alternative to the planning session planned by Ralph. What are other companies doing about this
Answer:
Web conferencing
Explanation:
The technological alternative that can be suggested by Bill considering the company's weak cash position would be the use of Web conferencing session to host the yearly planning session, because that way the cost of accommodation, flight and other logistics can be avoided and the aim of the yearly planning session will still be achieved without having the company's finance suffering a lot.
Most companies are now adopting Web conferencing as a new and innovative means of holding meetings and very important sessions across their various offices simultaneously.

Meredith, Linda, and Peter are working together in a project team at a home appliances company. They had to select two out of five new products to be introduced in the next quarter. The team has a conflict over the choice of those two products. (a) Meredith, who is uncomfortable with confrontations, chooses to remain neutral by staying away from the argument. (b) Linda and Peter had a few arguments which were finally resolved when Linda gave in to Peter's demands.
In this situation, (a) Meredith used the____style of conflict resolution and (b) Linda used the_____style of conflict resolution.
Answer:
a) avoiding
b) accommodation
Explanation:
a) Meredith feels uncomfortable with confrontations, she chooses to remain neutral while staying away from the discussion, so it is correct to say that she used the style of avoiding conflict resolution, which occurs when individuals prefer to avoid a situation that can generate conflicts as in the case described in the matter, and so they prefer to act diplomatically avoiding confrontations and not giving opinions contrary to a given situation.
b) Linda used the accommodation style as she gave in to Peter's demands for the choice of products. In this style, the individual values the relationship with the other individual above his personal opinion, and therefore gives up on maintaining the conflict because of a situation that is less important to him than the maintenance of the relationship.
