Garth Corporation sells a single product. If the selling price per unit and the variable expense per unit both increase by 10% and fixed expenses do not change, then: Contribution margin per unit Contribution margin ratio Break-even in units A) Increases Increases Decreases B) No change No change No change C) No change Increases No change D) Increases No change Decreases Option C Option B Option D Option A
Answer:
D) Increases No change Decreases
Explanation:
Contribution margin is Sales less Variable Costs. This will increase if the selling price per unit and the variable expense per unit both increase.
Contribution margin ratio is Contribution expressed as a percentage of Sales. This will stay the same when the selling price per unit and the variable expense per unit both increase by the same percentage.
Break-even in units is Fixed Costs divided my contribution per unit. This will decrease as the Contribution margin has increased.

Sewtfi951 Corporation makes an extra large part to use in one its fabulous products. A total of 14,500 units of this extra large part are produced and used every year. The company's costs of producing the extra large part at this level of activity are below:
Per Unit
Direct materials $3.20
Direct labor $7.80
Variable manufacturing overhead $8.30
Supervisor's salary $3.70
Depreciation of special equipment $2.10
Allocated general overhead $7.30
An outside supplier has offered to make the extra large part and sell it to Sewt1951 for $32.30 each If this offer is accepted the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including the direct labor, can be avoided The special equipment used to make the extra large part has no salvage value or other use The allocated general overhead representa fixed costs of the entire Sewt1951 company. none of which would be avoided at the part were purchased instead of produced internally. In addition, the space used to make the extra large part could be used to make more of one of the company's other fabulous products, generating an additional segment margin of $34,500 per year for that product
What would be the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for Sewt1951 Corp as a result of buying the extra large part from the outside supplier?
Answer:
($100,350)
Explanation:
Relevant cost to make
Per Unit 14,500 units

What are the "flows" within a supply chain, and why are they important?
Answer:
Supply chain management is the coordination, management and strategy that drives the flow of data, information, resources and materials to deliver the best product and service to all stakeholders in the process of converting raw goods to a salable product and delivering it to the ultimate customer. There are three main flows of supply chain management: the product flow, the information flow, and the finances flow. The product flow involves the movement of goods from a supplier to a customer. This supply chain management flow also concerns customer returns and service needs.
Explanation:
During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded: Twenty thousand pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.35 per pound. All of the material purchased was used to produce 4,000 units of Zoom. 750 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $14,925. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The following can be derived from the question:
Actual quantity = 20,000 pounds
Actual price = $2.35
Standard price = $2.50 per unit
Actual hours = 750 hours.
The standard quantity will be calculated as:
= 4,000 units × 4.6
= 18,400 pounds
The Actual rate will be calculated as:
= Total labor cost / Actual hours
= $14,925 / 750
= $19.90
Standard hours will be:
= 0.2 hours × 4,000 units
= 800 hours.
Standard rate = $18 per hour
1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month.
Material price variance:
= (AQ × AP) - (AQ × SP)
= (20,000 × $2.35) - (20,000 × $2.50)
= 47000 - 50000
= -3000
Material quantity variance:
= (AQ × SP) - (SQ × SP)
= (20,000 × $2.50) - (18,400 × $2.50)
= 50,000 - 46000
= 4000
2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.
Labor rate variance:
= (AH × AR) - (AH × SR)
= ($750 × $19.90) - (750 × $18)
= 14925 - 13500
= 1425
Labor efficiency variance:
= (AH × SR) - (SH × SR)
= (750 × $18) - (800 × $18)
= 13500 - 14400
= 900

Bronco High School issues $10 million in bonds on January 1, 2021 that pay interest semi-annually on June 30 and December 31. A portion of the bond amortization schedule appears below: Date Cash Paid Interest Expense Increase in Carrying Value Carrying Value 01/01/2021 $ 8,800,000 06/30/2021 $ 400,000 $ 440,000 $ 40,000 8,840,000 12/31/2021 400,000 442,000 42,000 8,882,000 What is the face amount of the bonds
Answer:
the face amount of the bonds is $10 million
Explanation:
the journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds is:
January 1, 2021, bonds issued at a discount
Dr Cash 8,800,000
Dr Discount on bonds payable 1,200,000
Cr Bonds payable 10,000,000
the face value of the bonds = total amount of the issue, while the carrying value of the bonds = face value - discount = $10,000,000 - $1,200,000 = $8,800,000
Data for Yvavxs408 Corporation and its two divisions, Domestic and Foreign, appear below:

Traceable fixed expenses, Domestic $ 74,100
Sales revenues, Foreign $478,400
Variable expenses, Foreign $273,000
Traceable fixed expenses, Foreign $ 61,900
(ID#54797) In addition, Yvavxs408's common fixed expenses totaled S167.800 and were allocated as follows: 587,100 to the Domestic division and $80.700 to the Foreign division
What is the segment margin for the Domestic division?
Answer:
Segment margin Domestic = $186,200
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales revenues= $620,000
Variable expenses= $359,700
Traceable fixed expenses= $74,100
To calculate the segment margin for the Domestic division, we need to use the following formula:
Segment margin Domestic = segment contribution margin - traceable fixed expense
Segment margin Domestic = (620,000 - 359,700) - 74,100
Segment margin Domestic = $186,200

Which of the following applies to Jeff regarding filing status?a) Jeff can file using any status he wants for the next 3 yearsb) Since Jeff’s spouse died during the year, he may be entitled to the special qualifying widower with dependent child benefits for tax year 2017 and 2018c) Since Jeff’s spouse died during the year, he may be entitled to the special qualifying widower with dependent child benefits for tax year 2016 onlyd) Since Jeff’s spouse died during the year, he may be entitled to the special qualifying widower with dependent child benefits for tax year 2017 only
Answer:
(D) I think
Explanation:
When your husband or spouse dies,you file as a widower. If he has children he could get extra benefits because he can file his kids as a Dependent on his Taxes.
Hope this helps:)!
Stay beautiful ❤️
With Riley having died in 2016, the procedure would be that b) Since Jeff’s spouse died during the year, he may be entitled to the special qualifying widower with dependent child benefits for tax year 2017 and 2018.
Special Qualifying WidowerAllows a widower to still fill taxes jointly as a married person for two years after the spouse dies. Can only apply if there is at least a single dependent child.There are two dependent children in this scenario so Jeff qualifies for this filling status. As Riley died in 2016, Jeff's two years would be the years 2017 and 2018.
In conclusion, option B is correct.

Sralbn620 Corporation has two divisions: Domestic Division and Foreign Division. Last month, the corporation reported a contribution margin of $47,800 for Domestic Division. Foreign Division had a contribution margin ratio of 25% and its sales were $235,000. Net operating income for the Sralbn620 Corporation was $35,700 and traceable fixed expenses were $55,400.
(ID#32648)
What were Sraibn 620 Corporation's common fixed expenses?
a) $15,450
b) $106,550
c) $55,400
d) $70,850
Answer:
Common fixed expense= $15,450
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total contribution margin from the two divisions:
Domestic Division= $47,800
Foreign Division= 235,000*0.25= $58,750
Total contribution margin= $106,550
Now, we can determine the common fixed expense using the following formula:
Net operating income= total contribution margin - traceable fixed expense - common fixed expense
35,700 = 106,550 - 55,400 - common fixed expense
common fixed expense= 51,150 - 35,700
common fixed expense= $15,450

Gallonte Inc. began operations in April of this year. It makes all sales on account, subject to the following collection pattern: 30% are collected in the month of sale; 60% are collected in the first month after sale; and 10% are collected in the second month after sale. If sales for April, May, and June were $60,000, $80,000, and $70,000, respectively, what were the firm's budgeted collections for May
Answer:
Total cash collection May= $60,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash collection:
30% are collected in the month of sale
60% are collected in the first month after sale
10% are collected in the second month after sale.
Sales:
April= $60,000
May= $80,000
We need to calculate the cash collection for May:
Cash collection:
Sales in cash May= (80,000*0.3)= 24,000
Sales in account from April= (60,000*0.6)= 36,000
Total cash collection May= $60,000

Zepol Company is planning to produce 600,000 power drills for the coming year. The company uses direct labor hours to assign overhead to products. Each drill requires 0.75 standard hour of labor for completion. The total budgeted overhead was $1,777,500. The total fixed overhead budgeted for the coming year is $832,500. Predetermined overhead rates are calculated using expected production, measured in direct labor hours. Actual results for the year are:
Answer:
Actual results are missing, so I looked for a similar question and found:
Actual results for the year are: Actual production (units) 594,000 Actual variable overhead $928,000 Actual direct labor hours (AH) 446,000 Actual fixed overhead $835,600
1. Compute the applied fixed overhead
2. Compute the fixed overhead spending and volume variances
1) budgeted labor hours = 600,000 units x 0.75 labors hours per unit = 450,000 labor hours
standard fixed overhead rate = $832,500 / 450,000 labor hours = $1.85 per labor hour
applied fixed overhead = actual labor hours x standard fixed overhead rate = 446,000 x $1.85 = $825,100
2) Fixed overhead volume variance = applied fixed overhead – budgeted fixed overhead = $825,100 - $832,500 = -$7,400 favorable
Fixed overhead spending variance = actual fixed overhead - applied fixed overhead = $835,600 - $825,100 = $10,500 unfavorable
total fixed overhead variance = -$7,400 + $10,500 = $3,100 unfavorable

Determine the impact of the stock repurchase on assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity. (Enter your answers in whole dollars not in millions (i.e., 1,000,000 not 1.0). Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.)
The impact includes Assets = -$32,90,00,000, Liabilities = No Effect and Stockholder's Equity = -$32,90,00,000.

Assets = Cash (7,000,000*$47)
Assets = -$329,000,000
Thus, the assets will decrease by $329,000,000.
Liabilities = No Effect
