In 2017, Costello Company performs work for a customer and bills the customer $10,000; it also pays expenses of $3,000. The customer pays Costello in 2018. If Costello uses the accrual-basis of accounting, then Costello will report:_____
a. revenue of $10,000 in 2018.
b. revenue of $10,000 in 2017.
c. net income of $7,000 in 2018.
d. expenses of $3,000 in 2018.
Answer: revenue of $10,000 in 2017
Explanation:
Accrual basis of accounting is a method that is used in accounting whereby the revenue or expenses have to be recorded when the transaction is made and not when the payment dor the transaction is made or received.
Since we are told that Costello Company performs work for a customer and bills the customer $10,000 in 2017, therefore if Costello uses the accrual-basis of accounting, then Costello will report revenue of $10,000 in 2017.
2014 ending inventory was overstated by $25,000, but it was too late to correct the financial statements. Which of the following describes the effect of the inventory error on the 2014 financial statements?A. Net income and stockholders' equity are both understated.
B. Net income is understated and stockholders' equity is correct.
C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
D. Net income and stockholders' equity are both unaffected.
Answer:
C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
Explanation:
In the income statement , ending inventory is deducted from the addition of the beginning inventory and net purchases to arrive at the cost of goods sold. Therefore, the cost of goods can be stated as an equation stated as follows:
Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + Net purchases - Ending inventory
From the above equation, it can be observed that if the ending inventory is overstated, cost of goods sold will be understated by that amount.
Since gross income is determined by deducting cost of goods sold from the net sales, an understated cost of goods sold will result in an overstated gross income and subsequently overstated net income.
Since net income is one of the components of the stockholders' equity, an overstated net income will leads to an overstated stockholders' equity.
Therefore, the correct option is C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
A client believes that XYZZY stock has topped out in price and is ready for a steep drop. What recommendation would give the customer the smallest profit if this occurs
Answer: Buy XYZZ stock and sell an XYZZ call
Explanation:
Since the buyer seems convinced that XYZZ stock has bottomed its price, he should purchase the stock since it has gotten to its cheapest Point.
And since he believes that XYZZ's price would rebound soon, He should exercise a little patience and not sell at a call option for XYZZ. Because if he attempts to sell at a call option then his earnings becomes very limited, since the price set at the call option would be very low.
My best advice would be for him to hold on to XYZZ stock for a while and allow for its price to rebound.
At the beginning of the year, Ann and Becky own equally all of the stock of Whitman, Inc., an S corporation. Whitman generates a $120,000 loss for the year. On the 189th day of the year, Ann sells her half of the Whitman stock to her son, Scott. Becky's stock basis is $41,300. How much of the Whitman loss belongs to Ann and Becky
Answer:
Becky's loss = $60,000
Ann's loss = $31,068
Explanation:
Assuming a 365 day year, the loss allocation should be as follows:
Ann (then Scott) 50% x $120,000 = $60,000Becky 50% x $120,000 = $60,000From the 50% that corresponds to Ann:
Ann = 189/365 x $60,000 = $31,068.49 = $31,068Scott = $60,000 - $31,068 = $28,932Magic Realm, Inc., has developed a new fantasy board game. The company sold 48,500 games last year at a selling price of $61 per game. Fixed expenses associated with the game total $873,000 per year, and variable expenses are $41 per game. Production of the game is entrusted to a printing contractor. Variable expenses consist mostly of payments to this contractor. Required: 1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year. 1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage. 2. Management is confident that the company can sell 60,625 games next year (an increase of 12,125 games, or 25%, over last year). Given this assumption: a. What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year? b. What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)
Answer:
1a.
Contribution format income statement for the game last year
Sales ( 48,500 games × $61) $2,958,500
Less Variable Expenses ( 48,500 games × $41) ($1,988,500)
Contribution $970,000
Less Fixed Costs ($873,000)
Net Income / (loss) $97,000
1b. 10.00
2a. 250%
2b. $339,500
Explanation:
Contribution Income Statement : Shows Separately the Variable Costs and Fixed Cost
Degree of operating leverage = Contribution / EBIT
= $970,000 / $97,000
= 10.00
Increase in net operating income = Degree of operating leverage × Percentage Increase in Sales
= 10.00 × 25%
= 250%
Expected amount of net operating income = Last Year`s net operating income × 3.5
= $97,000 × 3.5
= $339,500
Big Byte Inc. sold 15,000 computers to the government of India. Instead of receiving cash, the company received refined petroleum as payment. This is an example of
Answer:
This is an example of barter
Explanation:
Barter in trade, is a term used to describe a system of exchange where goods and services are exchanged for other goods or services directly. It is used most often in international trading, when there is a financial crisis, or when currency is unstable.
Barter is advantageous when money is in short supply, and when traders cannot afford to store a short supply of money, especially during hyperinflation.
However, there are some challenges with barter, which includes:
that both parties might not have what each other need in goods (double coincidence of wants), there is no common measure of value and indivisibility of certain goods when only half the worth is to be exchanged.
The combination of the degree of complexity and the degree of change existing in an organization's external environment is/are called:________
a. strategic fit.
b. strategic issues.
c. scenarios.
d. environmental uncertainty.
e. strategic factors.
Answer:
D. environmental uncertainty.
Explanation:
This could be explained to be a condition or situation when an organisation in form of a firm is said to have little or no information about its external environment and in this condition, making it unpredictable; especially when not expected. In other words, the term environmental uncertainty can be easily explained to be unpredicted, unexpected uncertainties that are said to happen in an external environment.
Global warming can be capitalized to be one of the physical and major environmental uncertainties that occurs in such a place.

In response to the economic crisis in 2008, President Merkel "highlighted in her speech what the German government has already done: a financial sector rescue package worth up to €500 billion, and a proposed stimulus package of tax breaks [on income] and spending measures aimed at triggering investments of up to €50 billion over the next two years." Which parts of the stimulus plan will increase labor supply?
Answer:
Chancellor Merkel's proposed stimulus consisted of two parts:
a financial rescue package worth €500 billion (which I personally believe only helped bankers but didn't increase labor supply)tax breaks and investment measures worth €50 billionThe only part of the stimulus package that would actually help to increase labor supply is the last part, which also is the smallest part, since it should have increased investments. When investment increases, the interest rates decrease and aggregate demand increases. As aggregator demand increases, the demand for labor also increases. An increase in the demand for labor results in higher wages, which in turn increases labor supply until an equilibrium is reached.
Governments generally rescue financial institutions arguing that they are really important to the economy, but what is really amazing and repeats itself all over the world is that the same governments favor free markets. When small businesses fail, governments do not care, and small businesses represent 99% of America's companies. Governments only start caring when rich people lose money, since free market rules only apply to them when they favor them. If free market rules do not favor the rich, they are bad and governments intervene.
A stock just paid a dividend of $3. The stock is expected to increase its dividend payment by 30% per year for the next 3 years. After that, dividends will grow at a rate of 8% forever. If the required rate of return is 10%, what is the price of the stock today?
Answer:
Price of stock today = $334.56
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.
This model would be applied as follows:
Year Present Value ( PV)
1 3 × 1.3 × 1.1^(-1) = 3.5454
2 3 × 1.3^2 × 1.1^(-2) = 4.1900
3 3 × 1.3^3 × 1.1^(-3) = 4.9519
Total 12.6874
Year 4 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
Step 1
D× (1+g)/k-g
3 × 1.3^4/(0.1-0.08)
=428.415
Step 2
Present Value in year 0
=428.415 × 1.1^(-3) = 321.87
Total present value = 12.6874 + 321.87 = 334.56
Price of stock today = $334.56

The benefit of adding a pound of compost is the extra revenue you’ll get from the extra tomatoes
that result. The cost of adding a pound of compost is 50 cents. By adding the fourth pound of
compost you’ll get 2 extra pounds of tomatoes, or 60 cents in extra revenue, which more than
covers the 50-cent cost of the extra pound of compost. But adding the fifth pound of compost
gives only 1 extra pound of tomatoes, so the corresponding revenue increase (30 cents) is less than
the cost of the compost. You should add 4 pounds of compost and no more.
3. Residents of your city are charged a fixed weekly fee of $6 for garbage collection. They are
allowed to put out as many cans as they wish. The average household disposes of three cans of
garbage per week under this plan. Now suppose that your city changes to a "tag" system. Each
can of refuse to be collected must have a tag affixed to it. The tags cost $2 each and are not
reusable. What effect do you think the introduction of the tag system will have on the total
quantity of garbage collected in your city? Explain briefly.
In the first case, the cost is $6/week no matter how many cans you put out, so the cost of
disposing of an extra can of garbage is $0. Under the tag system, the cost of putting out an extra
can is $2, regardless of the number of the cans. Since the relevant costs are higher under the tag
system, we would expect this system to reduce the number of cans collected.

3. If the retail store wants to minimize ordering and holding cost, what order size do you recommend?
4. How much would the optimal order reduce holding and ordering cost relative to the current policy?
Answer:
(1) The annual holding cost is =$6250, The ordering costs is = 500 units
(2) The total cost is = $7450
(3)224 unit
(4) $1,864.30
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The annual demand = 520 units * 12
= 6,240 units
The cost per order = $100 per order
The Carrying Cost = 0.25% * $100
= 25 per unit per year
Thus
(1) The Ordering quantity = 500 units every month
The annual holding cost =0.5*quantity ordered*holding cost
The Annual Holding cost = 0.5*500*25
Annual Holding cost =$6250
(2) The ordering (Annual)cost = number of orders *cost per order
Annual ordering cost =(500*12/500)*100
Annual ordering cost =$1200
Total cost = 6250+1200=7450
(3)Thus
EOQ=(2*D*S/h)^0.5
EOQ=(2*6240*100/25^)0.5
EOQ=223.43
=224 unit
(4)The ordering cost =(6240/224)*100=2785.70
Holding cost=0.5*224*25
=2800
Total cost= 2785.70+2800
Total cost=5585.70
Total savings = 7450 - 5585.70
= $1,864.30

Jay Seago is suing the manufacturer of his car for $3.5 million because of a defect that he believes caused him to have an accident. The accident kept him out of work for a year. The company has offered him a settlement of $700,000, of which Jay would receive $600,000 after attorneys’ fees. His attorney has advised him that he has a 50% chance of winning his case. If he loses, he will incur attorneys’ fees and court costs of $75,000. If he wins, he is not guaranteed his full requested settlement. His attorney believes that there is a 50% chance he could receive the full settlement, in which case Jay would realize $2 million after his attorney takes her cut, and a 50% chance that the jury will award him a lesser amount of $1 million, of which Jay would get $500,000. Using decision tree analysis, decide whether Jay should proceed with his lawsuit against the manufacturer.
Answer:
Since the expected value is higher for not suing ($600,000), then Jay should not sue. The expected value of the best case scenario in case of suing is only $500,000 and in the expected value of the worst case scenario is -$37,500.
