Answer:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $3,000 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard= 2 hours of labor per unit, at $12 per hour.
In producing 3800 units, Waterway used 7350 hours of labor.
To calculate the direct labor quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Standard quantity= 2*3,800= 7,600 hours
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (7,600 - 7,350)*12

If a perfectly competitive firm and a monopolistic competitor in long-run equilibrium face the same demand and cost curves, then the competitive firm will produce a
Answer: a. the former will earn zero economic profits, but the latter will earn positive economic profits.
Explanation:
In the long-run, conditions are different for Monopolies and Perfectly competitive firms.
In the long -run, a Perfectly competitive firm would see no economic profits due to the low barriers to entry in the market which will see companies coming into the market and increasing competition to a point where no single firm can make an economic profit.
With a Monopoly though, they are the single supplier in the market and as such will make economic profits in the long run from charging consumers are a rate higher than their marginal cost. As they are the only or major ones in the market, the price will not be challenged leading to an economic profit.
If a perfectly competitive firm and a Monopoly had the same demand and cost curves, the Perfect competition firm would make less as their cost curves would be close or at the same level with the demand but the cost curves would be less than demand for the Monopoly leading to economic profits.

The _________ price is the price at which a dealer is willing to sell a security. A. bid B. ask C. clearing D. settlement
Answer: B. ask
Explanation:
The ask also known as the offer price is the price at which seller is willing to sell a security after which the buyer must have stated a bid price of how much he or she wants to pay for the security. The bid price is known to be always lower than the ask price , of which the difference between both prices is called a bid-ask spread.
For example, if an investor wants to buy a security, he or she will first determine how much the seller is willing to sell it for, which is the ask price--- least price the seller is willing to sell the security for. However on the other hand, the seller in order to sell his or her security will first determine the highest price at which a buyer would be willing to pay for the security.

Noncash investing and financing activities is included in the statement of cash flows. Operating cash receipts minus operating cash payments equals net cash provided (used by)operating activities. Net income is adjusted for changes in noncurrent assets and noncurrent liabilities. The income statement is prepared under the cash basis of accounting.
Answer:
Operating cash receipts minus operating cash payments equals net cash provided (used by) operating activities.
Explanation:
A statement of cash flows is also known as cash flow statement and it is a financial statement which is used to illustrate how changes in income and various account of the balance sheet affect cash and cash equivalents.
The statement of cash flows is also used by financial experts or accountants to breakdown the cash-flow analysis into;
1. Cash-flow from financing activities: it represents the cash flow from debt or equity. Typically, it's the costs used in a financing a business.
2. Cash-flow from investing activities: it represents the cash flow from investment such as proceeds from the sale of plant, equipments, etc.
3. Cash-flow from operating activities: it represents cash-flow and transactions from operational business activities such as employee salary, sales of goods, etc.
In Financial accounting, the direct method of reporting operating cash flows uses actual cash inflows and outflows from the operating activities of a company by generating data from the income statement (cash receipts and cash disbursements/payments).
Hence, when the operating activities section of the statement of cash flows is reported using the direct method; operating cash receipts minus operating cash payments (disbursements) equals net cash provided, that is typically used by operating activities.

Cheyenne Corp. had the following transactions that took place during the year:I.Recorded credit sales of $2250II.Collected $1350 from customersIII.Recorded sales returns of $450 and credited the customer's account.What is the total effect of these transactions on free cash flow?a) No Effectb) Cannot be determinedc) Increased) Decrease
Answer:
The correct option is d) Decrease.
Explanation:
Free cash flow (FCF) can be described as the cash that is generated by a company after cash outflows required to support operations and maintain the capital assets of the company have been accounted for.
Therefore, FCF can be calculated by adjusting for non-cash expenses, changes in working capital, and capital expenditures to reconcile net income.
The total effect of these transactions on free cash flow can be determined by first calculating the account receivable for the year as follows:
Calculation of account receivable for the year:
Particular Amount ($)
Credit sales 2,250
Cash collected from the customer (1,350)
Sales returns (450)
Account receivable 450
A partial free cash flow statement can therefore be prepared as follows:
Cheyenne Corp.
Free cash flow statement (Partial)
Particular Amount ($)
Net income xx
(Increase) decrease in non-cash current assets:
Increase in account receivable (450)
Free cash flow (450)
Since the free cash flow is negative or minus $450, it therefore implies that the total effect of these transactions on free cash flow is a decrease.
Therefore, the correct option is d) Decrease.

$218,500
Explanation:
net operating cash flows = net income + adjustments
the adjustments include: depreciation expense (which is added), any increase in accounts receivables, inventory or prepaid expenses is subtracted, any increase in accounts payable or current liabilities is added.
net operating cash flows = $224,000 - ($47,500 - $46,000) + ($34,000 - $38,000) = $224,000 - $1,500 - $4,000 = $218,500

Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The company sells the product for $127.20 per unit.
Sales volume (units) 5,000 6,000
Cost of Sales $419,000 $502,800
First, we need to determine the unitary variable cost:
unitary variable cost= 419,000/5,000= $83.8
unitary variable cost= 502,800/6,000= $83.8
Now, the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= 127.2 - 83.8= $43.4
Finally, the total contribution margin:
total contribution margin= 5,300*43.4= $230,020
The best estimate of the total contribution margin when 5,300 units are sold is option A $230,020.
Total Contribution Margin
To Calculate the Contribution Margin, we need to find the value of the unitary variable cost, and their margin. We are provided with these information:
Selling price $127.20 per unit.
Sales volume 5,000, & 6,000
Cost of Sales $419,000 & $502,800
To find the value of Total Contribution margin:
Step 1: Unitary Variable Cost= 419,000/5,000= $83.8
Step 2: Unitary Variable Cost= 502,800/6,000= $83.8
Step 3: Unitary Contribution Margin= 127.2 - 83.8= $43.4
Step 4: Total contribution margin when 5300 units are sold= 5,300×43.4= $230,020.
Hence, option A is correct.

Sager Industries is considering an investment in equipment that will replace direct labor. The equipment has a cost of $1,200,000 with a $300,000 residual value and a 10-year life. The equipment will replace three employees who has an average total wages of $180,000 per year. In addition, the equipment will have operating and energy costs of $7,500 per year.
Determine the average rate of return on the equipment, giving effect to straight-line depreciation on the investment.
Answer:
Average rate of return = 11%
Explanation:
Depreciation = (Cost of equipment - Residual value) / Useful years
Depreciation = (1,200,000-300,000) / 10
Depreciation = 90,000
Increase in net annual income = 180,000 - 90,000 - 7,500
Increase in net annual income = 82,500
Average investment = (1,200,000 + 300,000) / 2 = 750,000
Average rate of return = Increase in net annual income / Average investment
Average rate of return = 82,500/750,000
Average rate of return = 0.11
Average rate of return = 11%

the weighted average cost of capital is 6.31 %
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the return required by the providers of long term permanent source of capital to the firm.
WACC = Ke × (E/V) + Kp × (P/V) + Kd × (D/V)
Ke = Cost of equity
= $1.20 / $37.00 + 0.04
= 0.0724 or 7.24 %
E/V = Weight of Equity
= (200,000 × $37) ÷ (200,000 × $37 + 4,500 × $1,000 × 99%)
= $7,400,000 ÷ ($7,400,000 + $4,455,000)
= 62.42 %
Kd = Cost of Debt
= Interest × (1 - tax rate)
= 6.70 % × (1 - 0.34)
= 4.42 %
D/V = Weight of Debt
= (4,500 × $1,000 × 99%) ÷ (200,000 × $37 + 4,500 × $1,000 × 99%)
= $4,455,000 ÷ ($7,400,000 + $4,455,000)
= 37.28 %
Therefore,
WACC = 7.24 % × 62.42 % + 4.42 % × 37.28 %
= 6.31 %
The Baldwin Company currently has the following balances on their balance sheet: Total Assets $260,881 Total Liabilities $150,673 Retained Earnings $52,700 Suppose next year the Baldwin Company generates $44,200 in net profit, pays $12,000 in dividends, total assets increase by $55,000, and total liabilities remain unchanged. What will ending Baldwins balance in Common Stock be next year
Answer:
common stock = $80,308
Explanation:
assets = liabilities + equity
current balance:
$260,881 = $150,673 + $110,208
$110,208 = common stock + retained earnings = $57,508 + $52,700
next year:
net income = $44,200
dividends = $12,000
assets = $260,881 + $55,000 = $315,881
liabilities = $150,673
equity = $315,881 - $150,673 = $165,208
retained earnings = $52,700 + $44,200 - $12,000 = $84,900
common stock = $165,208 - $84,900 = $80,308
