A manufacturing company that has only one product has established the following standards for its variable manufacturing overhead. Variable manufacturing overhead standards are based on machine-hours. Standard hours per unit of output 4.50 machine-hours Standard variable overhead rate $11.52 per machine-hour
The following data pertain to operations for the last month:
Actual hours 8,900 machine-hours Actual total variable manufacturing overhead cost $95,920 Actual output 1,800 units
What is the variable overhead rate variance for the month?
Answer:
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= $7,209 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard variable overhead rate $11.52 per machine-hour
Actual hours 8,900 machine-hours
Actual total variable manufacturing overhead cost $95,920
To calculate the variable overhead rate variance, we need to use the following formula:
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= (standard rate - actual rate)* actual quantity
Standard rate= 95,290/8,900= 10.71
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= (11.52 - 10.71)*8,900

Coffer Co. is analyzing two projects for the future. Assume that only one project can be selected. Project X Project Y Cost of machine $ 77,000 $ 55,000 Net cash flow: Year 1 28,000 2,000 Year 2 28,000 25,000 Year 3 28,000 25,000 Year 4 0 20,000 If the company is using the payback period method and it requires a payback of three years or less, which project should be selected?
Answer: Project X
Explanation:
Payback period is a method of capital budgeting that judges a project's viability based on when it will be able to pay back the initial investment.
Payback period Project X
Cost of machines is $77,000
= Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3
= 28,000 + 28,000 + 28,000
= $84,000
Means it paid back within 3 years.
= Year + Year 2
= 28,000 + 28,000
= $56,000
At year 2 how much was left;
= 77,000 - 56,000
= 21,000
= Amount left/ amount paid in year
= 21,000/28,000
= 0.75
= 2 years + 0.75 years
It took 2.75 years to pay off the Project X
Payback period Project Y
Cost of machines is $55,000
= Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3
= 2,000 + 25,000 + 25,000
= $52,000
Means it did not payback within 3 years.
In 4th year
= 55,000 - 52,000
= $3,000
= 3,000/20,000
= 0.15
It took 3 years + 0.15 year = 3.15 years to pay off.
Project X should be selected as it pays back within 3 years.
To determine cash payments for operating expenses for the statement of cash flows using the direct method, a decrease in accrued expenses is added to operating expenses other than depreciation.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
To determine cash payments under direct method the decrease in accrued expenses is added to the operating expenses payable . Accrued expense mean expenses incurred but not yet paid. A decrease in accrued expenses would suggest that accrued expenses have been paid therefore there has been an outflow of cash which will be added to cash paid for operating expenses.
The revenue is $94,000, the cost of goods sold is $51,000, other expenses (from selling and administration) are $21,000, and depreciation is $12,000. What is the EBIT?
Answer:
$10,000
Explanation:
EBIT is earnings before interest and tax
EBIT = Revenue - cost of goods sold - other expenses - depreciation
$94,000 - $51,000 - $21,000 - $12,000 = $10,000
Waterway Industries's direct materials budget shows total cost of direct materials purchases for January $200000, February $220000 and March $290000. Cash payments are 60% in the month of purchase and 40% in the following month. The budgeted cash payments for March are
Answer:
Total cash disbursement= $262,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchases:
January= $200,000
February= $220,000
March= $290,000
Cash payments are 60% in the month of purchase and 40% in the following month.
Cash disbursement March.
Purchase on cash March= 290,000*0.6= 174,000
Purchase on account from February= 220,000*0.4= 88,000
Total cash disbursement= $262,000
what happens to aggregate output if both taxes and government spending are lowered by $300 billion and mpc
Answer:
The answer is:
1. consumers' expenditure increases by $150 billion
2. output will decrease by $600 billion
Explanation:
Tax impact:
$300 billion x 0.5
= $150 billion.
If taxes are lowered by $300 billion, consumers' expenditure increases by $150 billion because with lower tax, there is money money to be spent because their disposable income has increased.
Government spending impact:
$300/(1-0.5)
$300/0.5
=$600 billion.
Due to government spending that has increased by this amount, output will decrease by this amount too because government has directly competed with firms that should have used this money to increase the total output.
Therefore, net effect on total output is $300billion($600 - $300)
Kennywood Inc., a manufacturing firm, is able to produce 1,500 pairs of pants per hour, at maximum efficiency. There are three eight−hour shifts each day. Due to unavoidable operating interruptions, production averages 850 units per hour. The plant actually operates only 28 days per month. Based on the current budget, Kennywood estimates that it will be able to sell only 504,000 units due to the entry of a competitor with aggressive marketing capabilities. But the demand is unlikely to be affected in future and will be around 516,000. Assume the month has 30 days. What is the theoretical capacity for the month?
Answer:
1,080,000 units
Explanation:
Given the below information;
Theoretical capacity per hour = 1,500 units per hour
Hours per shift = 8 hours
Number of shift in each day = 3
Number of days per month = 30
Theoretical capacity for the month
= Theoretical capacity per hour × number of shift per day × hours per shift/day × number of days in a month
= 1,500 × 3 × 8 × 30
= 1,080,000 units
Horse and Buggy Inc. is in a declining industry. Sales, earnings, and dividends are all shrinking at a rate of 10% per year. a. If r = 15% and DIV1 = $3, what is the value of a share?
Answer:
$12
Explanation:
The computation of the value of the share is shown below:
Value of the share is
= Dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - shrinking rate)
where,
The Dividend is $3
The Required rate of return is 15%
And the shrinking rate is 10%
Now placing these values to the above formula
= $3 ÷ (15% - (-10%)
= $3 ÷ 25%
= $12

Suppose that Dunkin Donuts reduces the price of its regular coffee from $2 to $1 per cup, and as a result, the quantity sold per day increased from 10 to 40. Over this price range, the price elasticity of demand for Dunkin Donuts’ regular coffee is:
Answer:
PED = -6
Explanation:
The PED or price elasticity of demand for a product measures the responsiveness of a product's demand to the changes in the price of the product. The PED is calculated as follows,
PED = % change in Quantity demanded / % change in price
PED = [(40 - 10) / 10] / [(1 - 2) / 2]
PED = -6
A PED of -6 represents that quantity demanded is highly price elastic and a negative sign means that it is a normal good.

On January 1, Parson Freight Company issues 9.0%, 10-year bonds with a par value of $3,400,000. The bonds pay interest semiannually. The market rate of interest is 10.0% and the bond selling price was $3,168,967. The bond issuance should be recorded as:
Answer:
January 1
Cash $3168967 Dr
Discount on Bonds Payable $231033
Bonds Payable $3400000 Cr
Explanation:
The issuance of bond on January 1 is at a discount as the coupon rate paid by the bond is less than the market interest rate. In such case the bond is issued at a lower value than its par/face value. The discount on bonds payable is the difference between the face value and the cash received on issuance.
The entry to record the issues include a debit to cash account as cash is received, a debit to the discount on bonds payable account for the amount of discount and a credit to bonds payable account as liability is created as a result of the issuance of the bonds.
Discount = 3400000 - 3168967 = 231033

The mode of transportation that results in the lowest transportation cost will also lower total costs for a supply chain.
a) true
b) false
Answer: False
Explanation:
Transportation is the movement of individuals or goods from one place to another. Supply chain are the steps that are involved before a product will finally get to the consumer.
It should be noted that the mode of transportation that results in the lowest transportation cost will not necessarily lower total costs for a supply chain. This I because transportation isn't the only process involved on supply chain.
Problem 14-13 Calculating the WACC [LO3] Dinklage Corp. has 4 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $70, and the book value per share is $9. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $75 million, a coupon rate of 7 percent, and sells for 95 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $60 million, a coupon rate of 6 percent, and sells for 107 percent of par. The first issue matures in 25 years, the second in 8 years. Suppose the most recent dividend was $4.30 and the dividend growth rate is 4.5 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 21 percent. What is the company’s WACC? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
WACC = 8.97%
Explanation:
total value of equity = $70 x 4,000,000 = $280,000,000
cost of equity:
$70 = $4.4935 / (Re - 4.5%)
Re - 4.5% = 6.42%
Re = 10.92%
total value of debt:
$75 million x 0.95 = $71,250,000
YTM = {70 + [(1,000 - 950)/25]} / [(1,000 + 950)/2] = 72 / 975 = 7.3846%
$60 million x 1.07 = $64,200,000
YTM = {60 + [(1,000 - 1,070)/8]} / [(1,000 + 1,070)/2] = 51.25 / 1,035 = 4.9517%
weighted cost of debt = ($71,250,000 / $135,450,000 x 7.3846%) + ($64,200,000 / $135,450,000 x 4.9517%) = 3.8845% + 2.347% = 6.2315%
total value of the firm = $280,000,000 + $135,450,000 = $415,450,000
equity weight = $280,000,000 / $415,450,000 = 0.674
debt weight = 1 - 0.674 = 0.326
WACC = (0.674 x 10.92%) + (0.326 x 6.2315% x 0.79) = 7.36% + 1.605% = 8.965% = 8.97%
If income rises from $1,000 to $1,400 and consumption rises from $800 to $1,168, the marginal propensity to consume is __________ percent.
Answer:
The marginal propensity to consume is 92 percent.
Explanation:
Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) refers to the additional expenditure on consumption by consumer as a result of an in national income.
That is, MPC is a measure of the proportion or percentage of the additional income that goes consumption expenditure.
MPC can be calculated using the following formula
MPC = ΔC / ΔY ......................................... (1)
Where;
ΔC = Change in consumption = New consumption - Old consumption = $1,168 - $800 = $368
ΔY = Change in income = New income - Old income = $1,400 - $1,000 = $400
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
MPC = $368 / $400 = 0.92, or 92%
Therefore, the marginal propensity to consume is 92 percent.
If an investor purchases a bond when its current yield is higher than the coupon rate, then the bond's price will be expected to
Answer:
The answer is: The bond price is expected to Increase over time, reaching par value at maturity
Explanation:
If an investor purchased a bond when the bond current yield-to-maturity is higher than the bond's price, the bond is said to be bought at discount (its price is less than the face value at maturity). With this, the bond price will be expected to Increase over time, reaching par value at maturity.
And when the opposite happens i.e coupon rate higher than the current yield-to-maturity, the bond is said to be bought at premium.

Occupational fraud comes in many shapes and sizes. The fraud at Rite Aid is one such case. On February 10, 2015, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that a former Rite Aid vice president, Jay Findling, pleaded guilty to charges in connection with a $29.1 million dollar surplus inventory sales/kickback scheme. Another former vice president, Timothy P. Foster, pleaded guilty to the same charges and making false statements to the authorities. Both charges are punishable by up to five years' imprisonment and a $250,000 fine.
The charges relate to a nine-year conspiracy to defraud Rite Aid by lying to the company about the sale of surplus inventory to a company owned by Findling when it was sold to third parties for greater amounts. Findling would then kick back a portion of his profits to Foster.
Findling admitted he established a bank account under the name "Rite Aid Salvage Liquidation" and used it to collect the payments from the real buyers of the surplus Rite Aid inventory. After the payments were received, Findling would send lesser amounts dictated by Foster to Rite Aid for the goods, thus inducing Rite Aid to believe the inventory had been purchased by J. Finn Industries, not the real buyers. The government alleged Findling received at least $127.7 million from the real buyers of the surplus inventory but, with Foster's help, only provided $98.6 million of that amount to Rite Aid, leaving Findling approximately $29.1 million in profits from the scheme. The government also alleged that Findling kicked back approximately $5.7 million of the $29.1 million to Foster.
Foster admitted his role during the guilty plea stage of the trial. He voluntarily surrendered $2.9 million in cash he had received from Findling over the life of the conspiracy. Foster had stored the cash in three 5-gallon paint containers in his Phoenix, Arizona, garage.

In its first year, a project is expected to generate earnings before interest and taxes of $237,884 and its depreciation expense is expected to be $87,882. If the company’s tax rate is 35%, what is the project’s expected net operating profit after taxes for the year?
Answer:
Net operating income= $242,506.6
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Earnings before interest and taxes= $237,884
Depreciation expense= $87,882.
Tax rate= 35%
To calculate the net operating profit, we need to use the following structure:
EBIT= 237,884
Tax= (237,884*0.35)= (83,259.4)

Explanation:
The standard cost card of the product will be,
$
Material (0.3 * 31) 9.3
Direct Labor (0.4 * 10) 4
Overheads (0.4 * 16) 6.4
Total cost per unit 19.7
Thus, the standard cost per unit will be $19.7
David Ortiz Motors has a target capital structure of 45% debt and 55% equity. The yield to maturity on the company's outstanding bonds is 12%, and the company's tax rate is 40%. Ortiz's CFO has calculated the company's WACC as 11.35%. What is the company's cost of equity capital
Answer:
the company's cost of equity capital is 14.75 %.
Explanation:
WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)
Where,
ke = cost of equity
= this is unknown
E/V = Weight of Equity
= 55%
kd = cost of debt
= Interest × ( 1 - tax rate)
= 12% × ( 1 - 0.40)
= 7.20 %
D/V = Weight of Debt
= 45%
Therefore,
WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)
11.35% = 55%ke + 7.20 % × 45%
11.35% = 55%ke + 3.24 %
55%ke = 8.11 %
ke = 14.75 %
Consider a $1,000-par-value 20-year zero-coupon bond issued at a yield to maturity of 10%. If you buy that bond when it is issued and continue to hold the bond as yields decline to 9%, the imputed interest income for the first year of that bond is
Answer:
$14.87
Explanation:
Computation the imputed interest income for the first year of the bond
First step
Using this formula
Imputed interest income= Par value/(1+yield to maturity)^Numbers of years
Let plug in the formula
Imputed interest income$1,000/(1.10)^20
Imputed interest income= $1,000/6.72749
Imputed interest income=$148.64
Second step
Imputed interest income=$1,000/(1.10)^19= Imputed interest income=$1,000/6.11590
Imputed interest income=$163.51
Hence,
Imputed interest income=$163.51 - $148.64
Imputed interest income= $14.87
Therefore the imputed interest income for the first year of the bond will be $14.87
