14. The last department in a production process shows the following information at the end of the period: Units Beginning Work in Process 25,000 Started into Production 240,000 Ending Work in Process 50,000 How many units have been transferred out to finished goods during the period
Answer:
the number of units transferred out to finished goods is 215,000 units
Explanation:
The computation of the number of units transferred out to finished goods is shown below;
= beginning work in process units + started into production units - ending work in process units
= 25000 + 240000 - 50000
= 215,000 units
Hence, the number of units transferred out to finished goods is 215,000 units
A division earning a positive profit will always increase its return on investment (ROI) if it increases operating expenses and Group of answer choices investment by the same dollar amount. sales by the same percentage. sales by the same dollar amount. investment by the same percentage.
Answer: Sales by the same dollar amount.
Explanation:
Return on Investment is calculated by the formula:
= (Sales - Operating income) / Investment
From the above, you can see that if investment is increased relative to sales and operating expenses are increased as well, ROI will decrease instead of increase.
This formula deals with dollar amounts not percentages so increasing sales by the same percentage is not right.
Only correct option is to increase sales dollar amount as this would lead to a higher numerator which would then give a larger ROI.
[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Campus Stop, Inc., is a student co-op. Campus Stop uses a perpetual inventory system. The following transactions (summarized) have been selected for analysis: a. Sold merchandise for cash (cost of merchandise $152,070). $ 275,000 b. Received merchandise returned by customers as unsatisfactory (but in perfect condition) for cash refund (original cost of merchandise $800). 1,600 c. Sold merchandise (costing $9,000) to a customer on account with terms n/30. 20,000 d. Collected half of the balance owed by the customer in (c). 10,000 e. Granted a partial allowance relating to credit sales the customer in (c) had not yet paid. 1,800 Compute the gross profit percentage. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
Answer: 45%
Explanation:
First calculate the sales:
= Cash sales + credit sale
= 275,000 + 20,000
= $295,000
Terms on credit sale was 2/10 n/30 and they paid half in time($10,000) but a partial allowance of $1,800 was granted:
Net sales would be:
= Sales - sales returns - sales discount
= 295,000 - 1,600 - (10,000 * 2%) - 1,800
= $291,400
COGS = 152,070 + 9,000 - 800
= $160,270
Gross profit percentage = (Sales - Cost of goods sold) / Sales
= (291,400 - 160,270) / 291,400 * 100%
= 45%
You own a coal mining company and are considering opening a new mine. The mine will cost $120 million to open. If this money is spent immediately, the mine will generate $20 million for the next 10 years. After that, the coal will run out and the site must be cleaned and maintained at environmental standards. The cleaning and maintenance are expected to cost $2 million per year in perpetuity. What does the IRR rule say about whether you should accept this opportunity
Answer: B. There are two IRRs so you cannot use the IRR as a criterion for accepting the opportunity.
Explanation:
The Internal Rate of Return can be useful in capital budgeting to enable a company know if an investment will be profitable. It is defined as the discount rate that causes the Net Present Value(NPV) to be zero. If the IRR is greater than the required return then the project should be accepted as it will have a profitable NPV.
IRR has some problems however and one of them is reflected here. There can sometimes be two IRRs and when this happens, using IRR as a viability measure cannot be done because a single rate is needed for comparison with the required return.
Consider two $10,000 face value corporate bonds. Bond A is currently selling for $9,980 and matures in 15 years. The Bond B sells for $9,350 and matures in 3 years. a) Calculate the current yield as a percentage to 2 decimal places for both bonds if both have a coupon rate equal to 5%. Bond A % Bond B % b) Calculate the yield to maturity as a percentage to 2 decimal places for both bonds if both have a coupon rate equal to 5%. Bond A % Bond B % Which current yield is a better approximation of the yield to maturity, A or B
Solution :
Current yield of the Bond if the bonds are selling at a price of $ 9980.
Current yield = annual coupon amount / current selling price
Current yield [tex]$=\frac{10000 \times 5\%}{9980}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{500}{9980}$[/tex]
= 0.0501
= 5.01 %
The current yield of a bond if the bonds are selling at $ 9350
Current yield = annual coupon amount / current selling price
Current yield [tex]$=\frac{10000 \times 5\%}{9350}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{500}{9350}$[/tex]
= 0.0535
= 5.35 %

Bad debt expense
2. Accounts receivable turnover ratio
Answer:
Cordova, Inc.
1. Bad Debt Expense account of $41,800 will also appear in Cordova's 2021 income statement.
2. Receivables Turnover ratio = 4.32
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Partial Balance Sheet of Cordova, Inc.:
Current assets:
Accounts receivable, net of $45,000 in allowance for
uncollectible accounts $ 377,000
Interest receivable 15,000
Notes receivable 350,000
Notes Receivable:
Dated October 31, 2020, payable October 31, 2021 = $120,000
Dated March 31, 2020, payable March 31, 2021 = 230,000 (8%)
Total Notes Receivable = $350,000
Accounts receivable:
Beginning balance $422,000
Sales Revenue = 2,050,000
Cash collections 1,910,000
Bad Debts w/off 34,000
Ending balance = $528,000
Allowance for Uncollectible accounts:
Beginning balance $45,000
Bad debts w/off (34,000)
Bad debts expense 41,800
Ending balance (52,800)
Receivables Turnover ratio = Sales Revenue/Average Receivables
= $2,050,000/$475,000
= 4.32
Average Receivables = ($422,000 + $528,000)/2 = $475,000

For each of the following transactions that occur in their lives, identify whether it is included in the calculation of U.S. GDP as part of consumption (C), investment (I), government purchases (G), exports (X), or imports (M). Check all that apply.
Transaction C I G X M
Hilary gets a new video camera made in the United States.
Kevin buys a new set of tools to use in his plumbing business.
The state of Pennsylvania repaves highway PA 320, which goes
through the center of Swarthmore.
Edison buys a sweater made in Guatemala.
Edison's employer assigns him to provide consulting services to
an Australian firm that's opening a manufacturing facility in China.
Answer:
Hilary gets a new video camera made in the United States. ⇒ Consumption .
It is bought for personal use in the United States so falls under the consumption of the U.S.
Kevin buys a new set of tools to use in his plumbing business. ⇒ Investment.
This is investment because it was bought to improve the reduction capacity of the business.
The state of Pennsylvania repaves highway PA 320, which goes through the center of Swarthmore. ⇒ Government Purchases (G).
The state of Pennsylvania paid for this so it is government expenditure.
Edison buys a sweater made in Guatemala. ⇒ Imports (M).
The sweater was imported into the U.S. from Guatemala so falls under imports.
Edison's employer assigns him to provide consulting services to an Australian firm that's opening a manufacturing facility in China. ⇒ Exports.
Edison's skills are being sent to Australia and China indirectly so they represent exports as they are being sent out of the country.

Both Bond Sam and Bond Dave have 7.3 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Sam has three years to maturity, whereas Bond Dave has 20 years to maturity. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of Bond Sam and Bond Dave
Answer:
-5.14 for sam
-18.01% for dave
Explanation:
We first calculate for Sam
R = 7.3%
We have 2% increase
= 9.3%
We calculate for present value of coupon and present value at maturity using the formula for present value in the attachment
To get C
1000 x 0.073/2
= 36.5
time= 3 years x 2 times payment = 6
Ytm = rate = 9.3%/2 = 0.0465
Putting values into the formula
36.5[1-(1+0.0465)^-6/0.0465]
= 36.5(1-0.7613/0.0465)
36.5(0.2385/0.0465)
= 36.5 x 5.129
Present value of coupon = 187.20
We solve for maturity
M = 1000
T = 6 months
R = 0.0465
1000/(1+0.0465)⁶
= 1000/1.3135
Present value = 761.32
We add up the value of present value at maturity and that at coupon
761.32 + 187.20
= $948.52
Change in % = 948.52/1000 - 1
= -0.05148
= -5.14 for sam
We calculate for Dave
He has 20 years and payment is two times yearly
= 20x2 = 40
36.5 [1-(1+0.0465)^-40/0.0465]
Present value = 36.5 x 18.014
= 657.511
At maturity,
Present value = 1000/(1+0.0465)⁴⁰
= 1000/6.1598
= 162.34
We add up these present values
= 657.511+162.34 = $819.851
Change = 819.851/1000 -1
= -0.1801
= -18.01%
Select the correct statement below regarding Manufacturing Overhead: Multiple Choice Manufacturing overhead is always an estimated cost. Manufacturing overhead is a clearing account and is neither shown on the balance sheet or income statement in published financial statements. Manufacturing overhead is an inventory account that is shown on the balance sheet. Manufacturing overhead is an expense account for all factory costs that are neither direct materials or direct labor.
Answer:
D) Expense account for all factory costs, except direct material or labour

Manufacturing Overhead refers to indirect costs, incurred during the process of production. This is charged as cost - to the units produced, during a reporting period. Example : Depreciation of asset, cost of asset is spread to all the useful years (& corresponding period output)
Blake doesn't much care about cars but is engaging in a substantial amount of information search about cars since he is about to buy a new car. In terms of involvement, Blake is Multiple Choice high in product involvement; low in purchase involvement. low in product involvement; low in purchase involvement. high in product involvement; high in purchase involvement. low in product involvement; high in purchase involvement. high in value-expressive involvement; low in product involvement.
Answer:
The answer "low in product involvement; high in purchase involvement".
Explanation:
In this question, Blake doesn't care a great deal about vehicles and is looking for something like a lot of information about cars when he's about to install a separate vehicle. Blake's involvement throughout the product is low; he is quite involved in purchasing because Low-involvement products were normally inexpensive, so if the customer makes an error by purchasing these they present a low risk. This same customer is related to excessive participation products if their fail, are complex, and are due to greater sticker prices. Somewhere in the middle of minimal participation products were falling.

Bing Book Bindery has identified two activity cost pools: printing, with an activity driver of batches processed, and binding, with an activity driver of direct labor hours. For the coming quarter, total factory overhead of $140,000 is split such that 65% is allocated to printing and 35% is allocated to binding. Bing makes two types of books: hard cover and soft cover. During the quarter, it expects to produce 5,200 hard cover books and 12,000 soft cover books. Hard covers are produced in batch sizes of 100 and soft covers are produced in batch sizes of 300. A hard cover book requires 0.75 hours of direct labor, while a soft cover book requires 0.25 hours. What is the overhead allocation to soft covers for printing
Answer:
Bing Book Bindery
The overhead allocation to soft covers for printing is:
= $68,250.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Activity Cost Pools Overhead Activity Driver Number Overhead
Cost Usage Rates
Printing $91,000 Batches processed 400 $227.50
Binding $49,000 Direct labor hours 150 $326.67
Total $140,000
Overhead rates:
Printing = $227.50 ($91,000/400)
Binding = $326.67 ($49,000/150)
Hard Cover Soft Cover Total
Units produced 5,200 12,000 17,200
Batches 100 300 400
Direct labor hours 0.75 0.25
Total direct labor hours 75 (0.75*100) 75 (0.25*300) 150
Overhead allocated to Soft Cover:
Printing = ($227.50 * 300) $68,250
Binding = ($326.67 * 75) 24,500
Total overhead = $92,750
Overhead allocated to Harc Cover:
Printing = ($227.50 * 100) $22,750
Binding = ($326.67 * 75) 24,500
Total overhead = $47,250

A college student has been looking for a new tires. The student feels that the warranty period is a good estimate of the tire life and that 10% interest rate is appropriate. Given 4 options find the minimum Equivalent Uniform Monthly Cost. (Note: the student wants to buy 4 tires)
Warranty time (months) | Tire price (all 4 tires)
12 | 31
24 | 51
36 | 69
48 | 94
Answer:
The minimum Equivalent Uniform Monthly Cost = $2.2264
Explanation:
To find the Equivalent Uniform Monthly Cost: EUAC = P(A/P,I,N)
Where i = 10% => 10% / 12 =
N = 12 , 24 , 36 & 48 months
12 months Warranty time = 31(A/P,10%/12,12)
12 months Warranty time = 31 * 0.0879
12 months Warranty time = $2.7254
24 months Warranty time =51(A/P,10%/12,24)
24 months Warranty time = 51 * 0.0461
24 months Warranty time = $2.3534
36 months Warranty time = 69(A/P,10%/12,36)
36 months Warranty time = 69 * 0.0323
36 months Warranty time = $2.2264
48 months Warranty time =94(A/P,10%/12,48)
48 months Warranty time = 94 * 0.0254
48 months Warranty time = $2.3841
Last year, Rocket Inc. earned a % return. Farmer's Corp. earned %. The overall market return last year was %, and the risk-free rate was %. If Rocket stock has a beta of and Farmer's has a beta of , which stock performed better once you take risk into account? 19 12 16 3 1.9 0.5 Click the icon to see the Worked Solution. Rocket's expected return is %. (Enter as a percentage and round to one decimal place.) Farmer's expected return is %. (Enter as a percentage and round to one decimal place.) Which stock performed better once you take risk into account? (Select the best answer below.)
Answer:
a) Expected Return for Rocket Inc. = 27.7 %
b) Expected Return for Farmer's Corp. = 9.5 %
c) The Stock performed better once you take risk into account = Rocket Inc.
Explanation:
Given - Last year, Rocket Inc. earned a 19 % return. Farmer's Corp. earned 12 %. The overall market return last year was 16 %, and the risk-free rate was 3 %. If Rocket stock has a beta of 1.9 and Farmer's has a beta of 0.5.
To find - (a) Rocket's expected return is ... ?
(b) Farmer's expected return is ... ?
(c) Which stock performed better once you take risk into account ?
Solution -
The formula for Expected return is -
Expected Return = Risk-free rate + Systematic Risk ( Market Return - Risk-free rate )
a)
Now,
For Rocket Inc. -
Expected Return = 3% + 1.9 ( 16% - 3% )
= 3% + 1.9 (13 %)
= 3% + 24.7 %
= 27.7 %
⇒Expected Return for Rocket Inc. = 27.7 %
b)
For Farmer's Corp. -
Expected Return = 3% + 0.5 ( 16% - 3% )
= 3% + 0.5 (13 %)
= 3% + 6.5 %
= 9.5 %
⇒Expected Return for Farmer's Corp. = 9.5 %
c)
Now,
Given that,
Actual Return of Rocket Inc. = 19 %
Expected Return of Rocket Inc. = 27.7 %
⇒ Performance is better
Now,
Actual Return of Farmer's Corp. = 12 %
Expected Return of Farmer's Corp. = 9.5 %
⇒ Performance is worst
∴ we get
The Stock performed better once you take risk into account = Rocket Inc.
You purchase a life insurance policy which involves making 5 annual premium payments (the first payment starting today). The original premium is $1800 and the premium increases 4% each year. The time line for the payments is drawn for you.
Today 1 2 3 4
$1,800 $1,872 $1,947 $2,025 $2,106
Now assume the insurance company offers you a level payment plan that has the same present value as the payment stream above but where all the premiums are the same. If the insurance company earns 10% compounded annually on its assets, what would the level payments be?
Today 1 2 3 4
$X $X $X $X $X
Answer:
$1,935.38
Explanation:
Rate = 10% = 0.1
Present value of premiums = Premium Today + Premium 1/(1+r) + Premium 2/(1+r)^2 + Premium 3/(1+r)^3 + Premium 4/(1+r)^4
Present value of premiums = $1800 + $1872/1.1 + $1947/(1.1)^2 + $2025/(1.1)^3 + $2106/(1.1)^4
Present value of premiums = $1800 + $1701.82 + $1609.10 + $1521.41 + $1438.43
Present value of premiums = $8070.76
Present value of level payments = $8070.29 / (((1-(1+10%)^(-5))/10%)*(1+10%))
Present value of level payments = $8070.29 / 4.169865447

On January 1, Year 1, Eller Company purchased an asset that had cost $24,000. The asset had an 8-year useful life and an estimated salvage value of $1,000. Eller depreciates its assets on the straight-line basis. On January 1, Year 5, the company spent $6,000 to improve the quality of the asset. Based on this information, the recognition of depreciation expense in Year 5 would:
Answer:
Reduce total equity by $4,375
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what the recognition of depreciation expense in Year 5 would:
First step is to calculate the Depreciation amount for each year
Depreciation = $23,000/8
Depreciation= $2,875
Second step is to calculate the Depreciation for 4 years
Depreciation for 4 years = $2,875* 4
Depreciation for 4 years = $11,500
Third step is to calculate the Carrying value of asset
Carrying value of asset = ($24,000 - $11,500)+$6,000
Carrying value of asset = $12,500+$6,000
Carrying value = $18,500
Now let calculate what the recognition of depreciation expense in Year 5 would:
Recognition of depreciation expense in Year 5 = ($18,500 - $1,000)/4
Recognition of depreciation expense in Year 5 = $4,375
Therefore Recognition of depreciation expense in Year 5 would Reduce total equity by $4,375
Daniel, age 38, is single and has the following income and expenses in 2016.
Salary income $60,000
Net rent income 6,000
Dividend income 3,500
Payment of alimony 12,000
Mortgage interest on residence 4,900
Property tax on residence 1,200
Contribution to traditional IRA 5,000
Contribution to United Church 2,100
Loss on the sale of real estate (held for investment) 2,000
Medical expenses 3,250
State income tax 300
Federal income tax 7,000
a. Calculate Daniel's AGI.
b. Should Daniel itemize his deductions from AGI or take the standard deduction? Explain.
Answer: See Explanation
Explanation:
A. Calculate Daniels AGI
To calculate Daniel's AGI, we have to get his gross income first which will be:
=
Salary income + Net rent + Dividend income
= $60,000 + $6000 + $3500
= $69500
His deductions FOR AGI will be calculated as:
Alimony paid = $12,000
Contribution to traditional IRA = $5,000
Loss on sale of real estate = $2,000 Deduction for AGI = ($19,000)
Adjusted gross income will now be:
= $69500 - $19000
= $50,500
b. Should Daniel itemize his deductions from AGI or take the standard deduction? Explain.
The itemized deductions include:
Mortgage interest on residence = $4,900
Add: Property tax on the residence = $1,200
Add: Contribution to United church = $2,100
Add: State income tax = $300
Total itemized deductions = $ 8,500
Since the total itemized deductions is $8,500 and the deduction for AGI is $19000, he should therefore itemize his deductions as it is cheaper.
Which of the following is an accurate statement about the consequence of nonbinding price ceiling?
a. They prevent the seller from receiving the equilibrium price.
b. They require the seller to advertise the product at the equilibrium price.
c. They create a surplus in the legal market.
d. They do not change the quantity of goods bought or sold in the legal market.
e. They increase the quantity demanded of the good in question.
Answer:
d. They do not change the quantity of goods bought or sold in the legal market.
Explanation:
A price refers to the amount of money a customer or consumer buying goods and services are willing to pay for the goods and services being offered. The price of goods and services are primarily being set by the seller or service provider.
Price control can be defined as standard restrictions or regulatory conditions that are typically set and enforced by the government of a country.
This ultimately implies that, price controls are used to impose the minimum and maximum prices set by the government, which are to be charged for various goods and services in the market. This minimum price that can be charged such as minimum wage is known as price floor while the maximum price that can be charged such as rent control is known as price ceiling.
A nonbinding price ceiling can be defined as a price that do not have any effect on the price of goods or services in the market.
Hence, an accurate statement about the consequence of nonbinding price ceiling is that they do not change the quantity of goods bought or sold in the legal market.
As a consumer, why is it good for us when a store has a surplus of an item we want?
Answer:
Usually prices are lower when you have a surplus amount of an item. However, if there was a low amount of one item the price would be extremely high and competitive. Hope that helps!!!
Explanation:
Answer:
A lower consumer surplus leads to higher producer surplus and greater inequality. Consumer surplus enables consumers to purchase a wider choice of goods.
A manufacturing company that has only one product has established the following standards for its variable manufacturing overhead. The company bases its variable manufacturing overhead standards on direct labor-hours. Standard hours per unit of output 5.30 DLHs Standard variable overhead rate $ 11.66 per DLH The following data pertain to operations for the last month: Actual direct labor-hours 8800 DLHs Actual total variable manufacturing overhead cost $ 96,000 Actual output 1500 units What is the variable overhead rate variance for the month
Answer:
$9,911 Unfavorable
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the variable overhead rate variance for the month
First step is to calculate the Standard labor hours Using this formula
Standard labor hours = Actual output x Standard hours per unit of output
Let plug in the formula
Standard labor hours= 1500 x 5.30
Standard labor hours= 7,950
Now let calculate the Variable overhead efficiency variance using this formula
Variable overhead efficiency variance = Actual labor hours - Standard labor hours) x hourly rate for standard variable overhead
Let plug in the formula
Variable overhead efficiency variance= ( 8,800-7,950) x 11.66
Variable overhead efficiency variance=850×11.66
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $9,911 Unfavorable
Therefore the variable overhead rate variance for the month is $9,911 Unfavorable

In supply and demand theory, an increase in consumer income for a normal good will: A. Shift the demand curve in and to the left, lowering the equilibrium price but raising the equilibrium quantity. B. Shift the demand curve out and to the right, raising the equilibrium price and quantity. C. Shift the supply curve out and to the right, lowering the equilibrium price but raising the equilibrium quantity. D. Shift the supply curve in and to the left, lowering the equilibrium price and quantity. E. Shift the demand curve out and to the right, lowering the equilibrium price but raising the equilibrium quantity.
Answer:
b
Explanation:
Normal goods are goods that are goods whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls
If income increases, demand increases. the demand curve shifts to the right. This leads to an increase in equilibrium price and quantity
