Answer:
total accounts receivable = $585,000 + $399,000 + $93,000 + $39,000 + $21,000 + $33,000 = $1,170,000
a. Estimate the balance of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts assuming the company uses 6% of total accounts receivable to estimate uncollectibles, instead of the aging of receivables method.
bad debt = $1,170,000 x 6% = $70,200
b. Prepare the adjusting entry to record Bad Debts Expense using the estimate from part a. Assume the unadjusted balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a $12,300 credit.
= $70,200 - $12,300 = $57,900
Dr Bad debt expense 57,900
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 57,900
c. Prepare the adjusting entry to record bad debts expense using the estimate from part a. Assume the unadjusted balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a $1,300 debit.
= $70,200 + $1,300 = $71,500
Dr Bad debt expense (= $70,200 + $1,300) 71,500
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 71,500
Since the allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance, any previous debit balance must be cancelled by crediting the amount.

Lord Greystroke uses his limited income to purchase fruits and nuts; he is currently buying 10 pounds of fruits at a price of $2 per pound and 5 pounds of nuts at a price of $6 per pound. The last pound of fruits added 10 units to Lord Greystroke's total utility, while the last pound of nuts added 30 units. Lord Greystroke:__________.
1. is making the utility-maximizing choice.
2. should buy more fruits and less nuts because the last pound of fruits cost less than the last pound of nuts.
3. should buy more fruits and less nuts because the last dollar spent on fruits added more to total utility than the last dollar spent on nuts.
4. should buy more nuts and less fruits because the last pound of nuts added more to total utility than the last pound of fruits.
5. should buy more nuts and less fruits because the last dollar spent on nuts added more to total utility than the last dollar spent on fruits.
Answer:
1. Is the answer
Explanation:
the utility-maximizing choice between consumption goods happens where the marginal utility per dollar is the same for both goods, and the consumer has finished his or her budget. By buying 10 pounds of fruits at a price of $2 per pound and 5 pounds of nuts at a price of $6 per pound. The last pound of fruits added 10 units to Lord Greystroke's total utility, while the last pound of nuts added 30 units. Lord Greystroke is utilizing this concept
A company is considering constructing a plant to manufacture a proposed new product. The land costs $300,000, the building costs $600,000, the equipment costs $250,000, and $100,000 additional working capital is required. It is expected that the product will result in sales of $750,000 per year for 10 years, at which time the land can be sold for $400,000, the building for $350,000, and the equipment for $50,000. All of the working capital would be recovered at the EOY 10. The annual expenses for labor, materials, and all other items are estimated to total $475,000. If the company requires a MARR of 15% per year on projects of comparable risk, determine if it should invest in the new product line. Use the AW method. (Sullivan, 20180327, p. 234) Sullivan, W. G., Wicks, E. M., Koelling, C. P. (20180327). Engineering Economy, 17th Edition. [[VitalSource Bookshelf version]]. Retrieved from vbk://9780134838229 Always check citation for accuracy before use.
Answer:
$327,909.14
Explanation:
Calculation to determine if it should invest in the new product line.
First step
The Investment cost will be:
Land costs $300,000
Building costs $600,000
Equipment costs $250,000
Additional working capital $100,000
=$1,250,000
Annual revenue $750,000
Annual expenses$475,000
Market value:
$400,000 +$350,000 + $50,000 = $80,0000
N: 10 year
MARR: 15% per year
Using PW method
-$1250000 + ($750,000 – $475,000) (P/A, 15%, 10) +$ 80000(P/F, 15%, 10)
-$1250000-$275,000((1+15)^¹⁰−1/15(1+15)^¹⁰+$3000
Hence,
=-$1,250,000 – $275,000(5.0188) + $3000(0.2472)
= $327,909.14

Hulston Appliances Co. wants to introduce a new digital display, laser driven iron to the market. The estimated unit sales price is $44.00. The required investment is $88,000. Unit sales are expected to be 8,800 and the minimum required rate of return on all investments is 10.00%. Compute the target cost per iron.
Answer:
Target cost per unit = $43 per unit
Explanation:
Target cost is the cost at which a product must be produced and sold to achieve a desired profit margin
Target cost =(Sales revenue - (ROI × capital) )/ No of units
Target cost =( (44 × 8,800) - (10%× $88,000 ) )/ 8,800 guns
Target cost per unit = (387200 - 8800 ) / 8,800 units= $43 per unit
Target cost per unit = $43 per unit
On November 1, Alan Company signed a 120-day, 12% note payable, with a face value of $15,300. What is the adjusting entry for the accrued interest at December 31 on the note
Answer:
DebitbAccrued Interest on Note receivable -$311.1
Credit Interest Income -$311.1
Explanation:
Preparation of the adjusting entry for the accrued interest at December 31 on the note for Alan Company
The Interest earned till 31 December will be :
(30+31 days)=61 days
=(15,300×12%×61days)÷360 days
=$111,996÷360 days
=$311.1

Debit Accrued Interest on Note receivable -$311.1
Credit Interest Income -$311.1
The adjusting entry for the accrued interest on December 31 on the note
Debit - Accrued Interest on Note receivable -$311.1
Credit - Interest Income -$311.1
An adjusting entry is an accounting entry made at the conclusion of an accounting period to update the accounts and put them in line with the accrual accounting method.
It is required because some transactions or occurrences may have been missed or recorded incorrectly throughout the period.
The Interest earned till 31 December will be :
(30+31 days)=61 days
=(15,300×12%×61days)÷360 days
=$111,996÷360 days

answer: 42022.34
Explanation:
On the new discovery using the formula
T(N) = T( N^log(L)/log(2) ) to calculate labor hours
T = 100000 , N = 1 then labor hours = 100000
T = 100000 , N = 2 then labor hours = 70000
T = 100000, N = 3 then labor hours = 56818.03
T = 100000, N = 4 then labor hours = 49000
T = 100000, N = 5 then labor hours = 43684.64
T = 100000, N = 6 then labor hours = 39772.62
T = 100000, N = 7 then labor hours = 36739.67
Total of labor hours = 396014.97
Therefore the cost savings to except = 438037.3031 - 396014.97 = 42022.34
A company wants to determine its reorder point (R). Demand is variable and they want to build a safety stock into R. The company wants to have a service level of 95 percent. If average daily demand is 8, lead time is 3 days and the standard deviation of demand during lead time is 2, what is the desired value of R
Answer: 27.28 units
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that a company wants to determine its reorder point (R) and that demand is variable and they want to build a safety stock into R. We have also been given the information that the company wants to have a service level of 95 percent and that average daily demand is 8, lead time is 3 days and the standard deviation of demand during lead time is 2.
It should be noted that a service level of 95% will have a desired z score of 1.64. To get the desired value of R, we multiply the average daily demand by the number of the days in lead time and then add to the multiplication between the standard deviation during the lead time and the desired z score. Mathematically, this will be expressed as:
= (8 × 3) + (2 × 1.64)
= 24 + 3.28
= 27.28
Therefore, the desired value of R = 27.28 units

Peanuts are an input in the production of peanut butter. If a decrease in the supply of peanuts increases the price of peanuts, what will happen to the equilibrium price and quantity in the peanut butter market?
Answer:
Equilibrium price would rise
Equilibrium quantity would fall
Explanation:
If the supply of peanuts falls, it would lead to a rise in the price of peanuts because the demand for peanuts woild exceed its supply.
The rise in price would increase the cost of production of peanut butter because peanut is an input in the production of peanut butter. This rise in cost would discourage suppliers and supply of peanut butter would fall. As a result equilibrium quantity would fall. As a result of a fall in supply of peanut butter, demand would exceed supply and equilibrium price would rise.

We entered into this contract 66 months ago so that when we entered into the contract, the expiration was T = 1T=1 year. The stock price$ 66 months ago was S_0 = 100S 0 =100, the current stock price is 125125 and the current interest rate is r = 10\%r=10% compounded semi-annually. (This is the same rate that prevailed 66 months ago.) What is the current value of our forward contract? Please submit your answer in dollars rounded to one decimal place so if your answer is 42.67842.678 then you should submit an answer of 42.742.7.
Answer:
The current value of our forward contract is $105.1
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
Spot - 6 months ago=$ 100
Spot - Current=125
Interest rate= 10%
Time=12 months
Therefore, to calculate the current value of our forward contract we would have to make the following calculation:
Forward Price=Spot price*e^(rt)
=$100*e^(0.1*0.5)
Forward Price=$105.1
The current value of our forward contract is $105.1
The benefits associated with a nuclear power plant cooling water filtration project located on the Ohio River are $10,000 per year forever starting in year 1. The costs are $50,000 in year 0 and $50,000 in year 2. What is the B/C ratio at i
Answer:
1.1
Explanation:
B/C ratio at i=10% per year?
Benefit= A/i%
Cost= initial cost- present worth
B/C= benefit/ cost
= [10,000/0.1]/[50,000 + 50000](p/f,10%,2)
= [100000/50000 + 50000(0.8264)]
= 1.1
A zero-coupon bond is selling at a deep discount price of $450. It matures in 11 years. If the yield to maturity of the bond is 6.2%, what is the duration of the bond (rounded to two places)
Answer:
Duration is 11 years
Explanation:
The Duration of a zero coupon bond is equal to it's maturity. Since it matures at 11 years the duration of the bond is therefore also 11 years.
It is a bond that pays no interest. A zero-coupon bond is a bond where the face value is what is repaid during the time of maturity. There are no periodic interest payments, or have so-called coupons, that is why they are referred to as zero-coupon bond. Investor gets par value when it matures.
Take the factors considered by earned value analysis and subtract those considered by tracking Gantt charts. The factor(s) you have remaining are:
a. Cost and schedule.
b. Performance.
c. Schedule and performance.
d. Cost.
Answer: cost
Explanation:
In earned value analysis also referred to as the gold triangle method, the cost, performance and time are considered. A tracking Gantt chart shows the stage of completion for every task. It allows individuals or project team make comparison between two sets of dates in order to track the progress of an acctivity against the original plan. Therefore, the tracking Gantt chart comsiders the performance and time.
Therefore cost is the only factor remaining
Jayne Butterfield, a single mother with three children, lived in Sacramento, California. Sarah Huckleberry also lived in California until she moved to New York City to open and operate an art gallery. Huckleberry asked Butterfield to manage the gallery under a one-year contract for an annual salary of $90,000. To begin work, Butterfield relocated to New York. As part of the move, Butterfield transferred custody of her children to her husband, who lived in London, England. In accepting the job, Butterfield also forfeited her husband's alimony and child-support payments, including unpaid amounts of nearly $45,000. Before Butterfield started work, Huckleberry repudiated the contract. Unable to find employment for more than an annual salary of $30,000, Butterfield moved to London to be near her children. She filed a suit in an California state court against Huckleberry, seeking damages for breach of contract. Should the court hold, as Huckleberry argued, that Butterfield did not take reasonable steps to mitigate her damages? Why or why not?
Answer:
No, the court should not hold in favor of Huckleberry.
Explanation:
The rule of mitigation that Huckleberry tries to use in her favor states that the non-breaching party (Butterfield) should have taken all the necessary steps to reduce her loss, e.g. take a job in New York. She probably argued that Butterfield leaving for England to meet with her children made things worse.
But in this case, Butterfield relied on Huckleberry's promise to organize her life and the well being of her children. Butterfield made a lot of changes and sacrifices in her life because of this, e.g. forfeiting unpaid alimony, transferring custody of her children , etc.
Moving to a different city or country requires a lot of work, expat life is not easy and not everyone can handle it. Butterfield took decisions that affected the lives of many people and she is not responsible for Huckleberry's breaching, the only party responsible for all this mess is Huckleberry and it is normal that Butterfield would want to go to where her children are.

(Round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer:
Budgeted Income Statement For Quarter Ended March 31
Sales $3,675,000
Cost of goods sold $1,764,000
Gross profit $1,911,000
Operating expenses
Commissions expense $404,250
Rent expense $60,000
Advertising expense $441,000
Office salaries expense $222,000
Depreciation expense $147,000
Interest expense $ 7,425
Total operating expenses $1,281,675
Income before taxes $629,325
Income tax expense $251,730
Net income $ 377,595
Explanation:
Commissions 11 % of sales dollars
Rent $ 20,000 per month
Advertising 12 % of sales dollars
Office salaries $ 74,000 per month
Depreciation $ 49,000 per month
Interest 11 % annually on a $270,000 note payable
Tax rate 40%
Sales = Number of units for first quarter × price per unit
= (39,000 + 59,000 + 49,000) × $25
= $3,675,000
Cost of goods = (39,000 + 59,000 + 49,000) × $12
= $1,764,000
Commissions expense = 11 % of sales = 11% × $3,675,000 = $404,250
Advertising expense = 12 % of sales = 12% × $3,675,000 = $441,000
Interest expense = 11 % annually on a $270,000
= 11% × 270,000 × 3/12
= $ 7,425
Income = Gross profit - total operating expenses
= $1,911,000 - $1,281,675
= $629,325
Income tax expenses = 40% × $629,325 = $251,730

Explanation:
Calculate Payroll An employee earns $25 per hour and 2 times that rate for all hours in excess of 40 hours per week. Assume that the employee worked 48 hours during the week. Assume further that the social security tax rate was 6.0%, the Medicare tax rate was 1.5%, and federal income tax to be withheld was $239.15. a. Determine the gross pay for the week. $ b. Determine the net pay for the week. Round to two decimal places. $
Answer:
A) 1,400
B) 1,055.85
Explanation:
An employee earns $25 per hour at 2 times the rate for all hours in excess of 40 hours per week
The employee works for 48 hours in that week
Social security tax rate is 6.0%
Medicare tax rate is 1.5%
Federal income tax= $239.15
(a) Gross pay= Regular pay+overtime
The regular pay can be calculated by multiplying the amount earned by the number of hours spent in the week
Regular pay= 40×25
= 1,000
The overtime can be calculated by multiplying the extra hours spent (48 hours-40 hours= 8 hours) by the amount earned and the rate
Overtime = 8× 25× 2
= 400
Gross pay= 1,000+400
= 1,400
(B) Net pay= Gross pay-Federal taxes withheld-Taxes payable
= 1,400-239.15-(6.0% of 1400-1.5% of 1,400)
= 1,400-239.15-84-21
= 1,055.85
Hence the gross pay is 1,400 and the net pay is 1,055.85
A corporation can earn 7.5% if it invests in municipal bonds. The corporation can also earn 8.30% (before-tax) by investing in preferred stock. Assume that the two investments have equal risk. What is the break-even corporate tax rate that makes the corporation indifferent between the two investments? Assume a 70% dividend exclusion for tax on dividends. (Do not round your intermediate answer and round your final answer to two decimal places.)
Answer:
32.13%
Explanation:
The computation of the break-even corporate tax is shown below:
As we know that
Municipal bond return = preferred stock return before tax × [1 - (1 - dividend exclusion) × Break even corporate tax]
7.5 = 8.30 × [1 - ( 1 - 0.70) × Break even corporate tax ]
7.5 ÷ 8.30 = 1 - 0.30 × Break even corporate tax
0.9036 = 1 - 0.30 × Break even corporate tax
0.30 × Break even corporate tax = 1 - 0.9036
So, Break even corporate tax is
= 0.0964 ÷ 0.30
= 32.13%
Basically we applied the above formula
What provision in an independent contractor agreement states the associate will not hold the broker responsible for claims, demands, suits, costs or expenses based on the associates representation of the agreement
What provision in an independent contractor agreement states the associate will not hold the broker responsible for claims, demands, suits, costs or expenses based on the associates' representation of the agreement?
A) Disputes and Litigation
B) Termination of Agreement
C) Indemnification
D) Regulatory Compliance
Answer:
The correct option is C) Indemnification Clause
Explanation:
This simply means that if the associate is found liable by a third-party due to errors and omissions or any action of tort, the principal or the broker, will not be vicariously held liable.
This clause may seem unfair given that for the most part of the relationship, the associate and the broker are bound by similar interests. However, sometimes one party may become self-focused, and this results in errors which translate to lawsuits.
This clause is a way of protecting the Broker. It is also implied that the associate will also enjoy immunity from any costs and damages which the broke may be held liable to.
