The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] McAllister, Inc. employs a normal costing system. The following information pertains to the year just ended.
Total manufacturing costs were $1,310,000.
Cost of goods manufactured was $1,275,500.
Applied manufacturing overhead was 30% of total manufacturing costs.
Manufacturing overhead was applied to production at a rate of 80 percent of direct-labor cost
Work-in-process inventory on January 1 was 75% of work-in-process inventory on December 31.
Requlred:
1. Compute the total direct-labor cost for the year.
2. Calculate the total cost of direct material used during the year
3. Compute the value of the company's work-in-process inventory on December 31.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Given that
Total manufacturing costs = $1,310,000
Cost of goods manufactured = $1,275,500
Applied manufacturing O.H = 30% of manufacturing costs
= 0.3 of 1,310,000
= $393,000
(1)
The direct labor cost is
80% of direct labor cost = Applied overhead
So direct labor cost = $393,000 ÷ 80%
= $491,250
(2) The total cost of direct material is
As we know that
Total manufacturing costs = Direct materials + Direct labor + Applied Overhead
So,
Direct materials = Total manufacturing costs - Direct labor - Applied overhead
= $1,310,000 - $491,250 - $393,000
= $425,750
(3)
The Ending work in process inventory is
As we know that
Cost of goods manufactured = Beginning work in process + Total manufacturing costs - Ending work in process
Le us s assume X to be ending work in process
Beginning work in process = X × 75% = 0.75X
Now
$1,275,500 = 0.75X + $1,310,000 - X
X = $138,000
Materials are added at the beginning of a production process, and ending work in process inventory is 30% complete with respect to conversion costs. Use the information provided to complete a production cost report using the weighted-average method.
Costs to Account For
Beginning inventory: materials $9,000
Beginning inventory: conversion 18,000
Direct material 39,000
Direct labor 75,000
Applied overhead 36,355
Total costs to account for $177,355
Units to Account For
Beginning work in process 6,000
Units started into production 18,000
Transferred out 19,000
Answer:
Production Cost Report
INPUTS
Units Costs
Beginning Inventory 6,000 $27,000
Started 18,000 $150,355
Total 24,000 $204,355
OUTPUTS
Completed and Transferred 19,000 $157,890
Ending Inventory 5,000 $19,465
Total 24,000 $177,355
Explanation:
Step 1 : Units in Ending Work in Progress
Units in Ending Work in Progress = 6,000 + 18,000 - 19,000 = 5,000 units
Step 2 : Equivalent Units
Materials = 19,000 x 100 % + 5,000 x 100% = 24,000 units
Conversion Costs = 19,000 x 100 % + 5,000 x 30% = 20,500 units
Step 3 : Cost per Equivalent units
Materials = ($9,000 + $39,000) ÷ 24,000 units = $2.00
Conversion Costs = ($18,000 + $75,000 + $36,355) ÷ 20,500 units = $6.31
Total = $2.00 + $6.31 = $8.31
Step 4 : Cost of units transferred and units in ending inventory
Cost of units transferred = $8.31 x 19,000 = $157,890
Cost of units in ending inventory = $2.00 x 5,000 + $6.31 x 1,500 = $19,465
Assume the firms operating in an oligopolistic market experience a relatively small change in marginal costs. According to the kinked demand curve model this would: A) cause a large change in the profit-maximizing level of output. B) leave the equilibrium price unchanged. C) cause the profit-maximizing level of output to change by the same amount and in the same direction. D) cause the profit-maximizing price to change by the same amount but in the opposite direction.
Answer:
B) Leave the equilibrium price unchanged.
Explanation:
Oligopolistic market is the arrangement where few companies offer same product to the customers. There is very less competition in the market so every supplier has fair chance for operating their business successfully. The kinked demand model curve in oligopolistic market would leave the equilibrium price unchanged.

LUVFINANCE, Inc. is estimating its WACC. It is operating at its optimal capital structure. Its outstanding bonds have a 12 percent coupon, paid semiannually, a current maturity of 17 years, and sell for $1,162. It has 100,000 bonds outstanding. The firm can issue new 20-year maturity semiannual bonds at par but will incur flotation costs of $50 per bond. The firm could sell, at par, $100 preferred stock that pays a 12 percent annual dividend that is currently selling for $120. The firm currently has 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding. Rollins' beta is 0.94, the risk-free rate is 3.72 percent, and the market risk premium is 6 percent. The common stock currently sells for $100 a share and there are 5,000,000 shares outstanding. The firm's marginal tax rate is 40 percent.
Required:
What is the WACC?
Solution :
Given :
The cost of the debt is yield to the maturity of the bonds.
The yield on the bond is 10%
The tax rate is 40%
After the tax cost of the debt = 10 ( 1- 0.4 )
= 6 %
Add floatation cost at the rate of 5% = 11%
Cost of the preferred stock = [tex]$\frac{\text{dividend}}{\text{price}}$[/tex]
= [tex]$\frac{120}{12}$[/tex] = 10%
The cost of equity = risk free rate + β x market risk premium
= 3.72 + 0.94 x 6
= 9.36%
WACC is weighted average of the individual securities :
Particulars Value per No. of Market value Weight Cost of Product
security securities security
Bonds 1162 100,000 116,200,000 0.1578 11 1.73621298

Therefore, WACC of the firm is 9.72%
How have technological Innovations Increased risks in business organizations!
Answer:
Businesses are more susceptible to information leakages as a result of technological inventions.
They also have to spend more money in the purchase of technologies that might be expensive to maintain.
Explanation:
1. Business organizations carry out a lot of activities that center on information sharing. The advent of technologies comes with risks from hackers who might want to intrude in the information of the company. When the system is compromised, customers can be disappointed and important and sensitive information may be lost to attackers or competing organizations that might fund such attacks. This will impose an information risk to the company.
2. The purchase of new technologies come at a high price. Personnel conversant with the use and operation of these technologies may be hard to find and might require training to be effective in the use of these machines. These machines can easily fall into disuse when they are not properly maintained. This will impose a financial risk to the company.
Answer:
Businesses are more susceptible to information leakages as a result of technological inventions.
They also have to spend more money in the purchase of technologies that might be expensive to maintain.

A lender is considering what terms to allow on a loan. Current market terms are 8 percent interest for 25 years for a fully amortizing loan. The borrower, Rich, has requested a $100,000 loan. The lender believes that extra credit analysis and careful loan control will have to be exercised because Rich has never borrowed such a large sum before. In addition, the lender expects that market rates will move upward very soon, perhaps even before the loan is closed. To be on the safe side, the lender decides to extend Rich a fixed rate, constant payment mortgage (CPM) loan commitment of $95,000 at 9 percent interest for 25 years. However, the lender wants to charge a loan origination fee to make the mortgage loan yield 10%. What origination fee should the lender charge? What fee should be charged if it is expected that the loan will be repaid after 10 years?
Answer:
1. The origination fee that the lender should charge if Rich will repay the loan after 25 years = $20,000 approximately.
2. The origination fee that the lender should charge if Rich will repay the loan after 10 years = $6,600 approximately.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Amount requested by Rich = $100,000
Amount the bank is willing to lend Rich = $95,000
Interest rate = 9%
Period of loan = 25 years or 10 years
From an online finance calculator:
At 10% interest rate:
PMT = $-10,465.97
Sum of all periodic payments = $-261,649.17
Total Interest = $166,649.17
At 9% interest rate:
PMT = $-9,671.59
Sum of all periodic payments = $-241,789.84
Total Interest = $146,789.84
Expected Origination Fee:
Interest at 10% = $166,649.17
Interest at 9% = $146,789.84
Required origination fee = $19,859.32 ($166,649.17 - $146,789.84)
This is equivalent to $20,000
Payment after 10 years:
At 10% interest rate:
PMT = $-15,460.81
Sum of all periodic payments = $-154,608.13
Total Interest = $59,608.13
At 9% interest rate:
PMT = $-14,802.91
Sum of all periodic payments = $-148,029.09
Total Interest = $53,029.09
Expected Origination Fee:
Interest at 10% = $59,608.13
Interest at 9% = $53,029.09
Required origination fee = $6,579.04 or $6,600 ($59,608.13 - $53,029.09)

. Explain factors which may cause the demand curve to shift outward
Answer:
Answer is below
Explanation:
Factors that may cause the demand curve to shift outward are:
1. changes in tastes and preference: when there is a change in taste for example commodity A, whereby people tend to enjoy its taste, the will be an outward shift in the demand curve of commodity A
2. income of the consumers: when the income of consumers increases, they tend to buy more of a certain commodity they enjoy, hence there will be an outward shift in that commodity's demand curve
3. prices of substitute or complement goods: for example, an increase in the price of a substitute will cause consumers to demand more for a particular commodity, hence, outward in demand shift curve occurs
4. expectations about future conditions and prices: when there is speculation about an increase in the price of an essential commodity or goods consumers enjoy, people tend to buy more in a given moment, hence there exists an outward shift in the demand curve
5. Population of consumers in the market: increase in the population of consumers of a certain commodity is directly proportional to an increase in demand of that commodity, hence there exists an outwards shift in the demand curve.

QS 8-7 Computing revised depreciation LO C2 On January 1, the Matthews Band pays $65,200 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for five years and after five years it can sell the equipment for $2,000. Matthews Band uses straight-line depreciation but realizes at the start of the second year that this equipment will last only a total of three years. The salvage value is not changed. Compute the revised depreciation for both the second and third years.
Answer:
$25,280 per year
Explanation:
The computation of the revised depreciation for both the second and third years is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
Depreciation for year 1 = [Cost – Salvage Value] ÷Useful Life
= [$65,200 - 2,000] ÷ 5 Years
= $12,640
Now Book Value at point of revision is
= Cost - First year depreciation
= $65,200 - $12,640
= $52,560
Now
Remaining Depreciable Cost = Book Value at the point of revision - Salvage Value
= $52,560 – 2,000
= $50,560
And, finally Depreciation per year for Year 2 and 3 is
= Depreciable cost / Remaining useful life
= $50,560 ÷ 2 Year
= $25,280 per year

The present value of $2,515 due in 10 years at 10% and 5%. Present value at 10%: $ Present value at 5%: $
Answer:
$651.56
$1037.50
$245.57
$969.64
$1543.99
Explanation:
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
a. 400 x (1.05)^10 = $651.56
b. 400 x (1.1)^10 = $1037.50
formula for determining present value is
PV = f / (1 + r)^n
$400/ (1.05)^10 = $245.57
d. $2515 / (1.1)^10 = $969,64
$2515 / (1.05)^10 = $1543.99
Answer the below case problem, giving the legal issue, the governing law and the rationale in support of your conclusion.
Arthur Jensen, Inc., was a corporation engaged in the housing construction business.
Arthur Jensen set up and was the sole owner and president of the corporation. Alaska Valuation Service [AVS] conducted housing appraisals for Jensen on numerous occasions over the years. When AVS took the orders for appraisals, it was not aware that it was dealing with a corporation. It believed that it was dealing directly with Jensen [i.e., as a sole proprietor]. Jensen never specifically informed AVS of his status as the president of Arthur Jensen, Inc. When AVS was not paid for appraisal services that it had performed, AVS sued Arthur Jensen, attempting to hold him personally liable for the unpaid appraisals.
Arthur Jensen argued that he could not be personally liable because he had acted on behalf of his corporation.
1. Decide the case based on the above stated facts.
2. Assuming Arthur Jensen could be held personally liable, how could Arthur
Jensen have better protected himself? [we discussed this in class]
Answer:
1. Decide the case based on the above stated facts.
Corporations provide limited liability to their owners, and one person corporations are legal in all states. Depending on how Arthur handled his business, the corporate veil might or not be lifted. If he separated the corporate account and managed the corporation separately for his other assets, then he is not liable.
On the other hand, if he paid the bills using his personal account, or used the corporation's assets as his own, then the outcome might change. We are not given enough details.
2. Assuming Arthur Jensen could be held personally liable, how could Arthur Jensen have better protected himself?
Simple, he should sign as the president of the corporation and pay using the corporation's account.
Pedro, not a dealer, sold real property that he owned with an adjusted basis of $120,000 and encumbered by a mortgage for $56,000 to Pat in 2018. The terms of the sale required Pat to pay $28,000 cash, assume the $56,000 mortgage, and give Pedro 11 notes for $12,000 each (plus interest at the Federal rate). The first note was payable two years from the date of sale, and each succeeding note became due at two-year intervals. Pedro did not elect out of the installment method for reporting the transaction. If Pat pays the 2020 note as promised, what is the recognized gain to Pedro in 2020 (exclusive of interest)
Answer:
$64,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the recognized gain to Pedro in 2020
First step is to calculate the Realized gain
Realized gain=($120,000+$12,000+$28,000+$56,000-$120,000)
Realized gain=$96,000
Second step is to calculate the Contract Price
Contract Price=$216,000-$56,000
Contract Price=$160,000
Now let calculate the recognized gain to Pedro in 2020
Recognized gain=$160,000-$96,000
Recognized gain=$64,000
Therefore the recognized gain to Pedro in 2020 is $64,000

Trendy Toes produces sports socks. The company has fixed expenses of $85,000 and variable expenses of $1.20 per package. Each package sells for $2.00.
Requirements:
1. Compute the contribution margin per package and the contribution margin ratio.
2. Find the breakeven point in units and in dollars.
3. Find the number of packages Trendy Toes needs to sell to earn a $26,000 operating income.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the contribution margin and contribution margin ratio we need to use the following formulas:
contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost
contribution margin= 2 - 1.2= 0.8
contribution margin ratio= contribution margin / selling price
contribution margin ratio= 0.8 / 2
contribution margin ratio= 0.4
Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units and dollars:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 85,000 / 0.8
Break-even point in units= 106,250
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 85,000 / 0.4
Break-even point (dollars)= $212,500
Finally, the desired profit is $26,000:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 111,000 / 0.8
Break-even point in units= 138,750
Suppose two factors are identified for the U.S. economy: the growth rate of industrial production, IP, and the inflation rate, IR. IP is expected to be 4% and IR 6%. A stock with a beta of 1 on IP and 0.7 on IT currently is expected to provide a rate of return of 12%. If industrial production actually grows by 5%, while the inflation rate turns out to be 8%, what will be your expected rate of return on the stock, given the new information about the industrial production rate and the inflation rate
Answer:
14.4%
Explanation:
Calculation for what will be your expected rate of return on the stock.
Expected rate of return on the stock=12% + 1(5%-4%) + .7(8%-6%)
Expected rate of return on the stock=12%+1(1%)+.7(2%)
Expected rate of return on the stock=12%+1%+1.4%
Expected rate of return on the stock=14.4%
Therefore your expected rate of return on the stock is 14.4%
An environmental consultant is considering the installation of a water storage tank for a client. The tank is estimated to have an initial cost of $309,000, and annual maintenance costs are estimated to be $7,100 per year. As an alternative, a holding pond can be provided a short distance away at an initial cost of $225,000 for the pond plus $90,000 for pumps and piping. Annual operating and maintenance costs for the pumps and holding pond are estimated to be $16,000. The planning horizon is 20 years, and at that time, neither alternative has any salvage value.
Required:
Determine the preferred alternative based on a present worth analysis with a MARR of 20 percent/year.
Answer:
The preferred alternative based on a present worth analysis with a MARR of 20% per year is:
the Installation of a water Storage Tank
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
MARR = 20% per year
Time period or planning horizon = 20 years
Alternatives
Tank Pond
Initial costs $309,000 $315,000 ($225,000 + $90,000)
Annual maintenance costs 7,100 16,000
PV annuity factor 4.870 4.870
Total PV: maintenance cost $34,577 $77,920 ($16,000 * 4.870)
Total PW costs $343,577 $392,920 ($315,000 + $77,920)
Present worth is the same as the present value (PV) of a future amount, discounted to the present using a specified rate.
Farmer Owens has an apple orchard that must be pollinated by bees in order to bear fruit. Farmer Owens's neighbor, Maude, owns beehives with bees that can pollinate the apple trees. Suppose the benefit of the bees to Farmer Owens is $ per year. Suppose the bees provide no benefit to Maude but she must pay $ per year to maintain the hives. If Farmer Owens and Maude engage in Coase bargaining, what would likely result?
Answer: A. Farmer Owens would pay Maude between $3,000 and $5,000 to maintain the hives.
Explanation:
Coarse bargaining refers to a scenario where parties involved in a conflict over property rights can reach an efficient agreement that would reflect the costs and values of the property in question.
In this scenario, Farmer Owens is making a benefit of $5,000. Owens would therefore be willing to pay a maximum of $5,000 for the benefit and no more.
Maude spends $3,000 on the hives which means that she needs a minimum of $3,000 to cover those costs.
They should therefore reach an agreement where Farmer Owens would pay between $3,000 and $5,000 to Maude so that she can maintain the hives.

Rental income accrued during March, tenant to pay in April: $910.
Supplies used in March: $310.
Fees earned in March that had been collected in advance: $3,700.
After recording these adjustments, net income for March is:_________
a. $112,400.
b. $113,620.
c. $117,000.
d. $110,800.
Answer:
Net income after adjustment $225,000
Explanation:
The various adjustments are effected below:
$ Note
Net income before adjustment 232,500
Depreciation (4,400) 1
Rental income 910 2
Supplies (310) 3
Fees earned (3,700) 4
Net income after adjustment 225,000
Notes
1 Depreciation represents a consumption of asset hence it is an expense which reduces profit .So, it deducted
2. Rental income accrued implies income earned but not received. So we need to record it for the period it was earned, hence we add it.
3. Supplies used represents consumption of assets, i.e an expense. So, we deduct it from the income.
4. The income received in advance represents unearned income . This would be deducted from the net income
Nadine Chelesvig has patented her invention. She is offering a patent manufacturer two contracts for the exclusive right to manufacture and market her product. Plan A calls for an immediate single lump payment to her of $35,000. Plan B calls for an annual payment of $1,200 plus a royalty of $0.40 per unit sold. The remaining life of the patent is 10 years. Nadine uses a MARR of 7 %/year.
a. What must be the uniform annual sales volume of the product for Nadine to be indifferent between the contracts, based on a present worth analysis?
b. If the sales volume is below the volume determined in (a), which contract would the manufacturer prefer?
Answer:
A) 9458 units
B) She would prefer the one with the single lump payment of $35,000 because the present value of the other one would increase with an increase in the units sold.
Explanation:
A) To calculate the uniform annual sales volume based on a present worth analysis, we will make use of the formula for present value of annuity.
Thus;
P = PMT × (1 - ((1/(1 - rⁿ))/r
From the question, we are given;
P = $35,000
PMT = (1200 + 0.4x)
r = 7% = 0.07
n = 10
Thus, Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
(1200 + 0.4x)((1 - (1/(1 + 0.07)^10))/0.07 = 35000
This gives;
(1200 + 0.4x) × 7.0236 = 35000
(1200 + 0.4x) = 35000/7.0236
(1200 + 0.4x) = 4983.2
0.4x = 4983.2 - 1200
0.4x = 3783.2
x = 3783.2/0.4
x = 9458 units
B) She would prefer the one with the single lump payment of $35,000 because the present value of the other one would increase with an increase in the units sold.
