Bridges and Lloyd, an accounting firm, provides consulting and tax planning services. For many years, the firm's total administrative cost (currently $250,000) has been allocated to services on the basis of billable hours to clients. A recent analysis found that 65% of the firm's billable hours to clients resulted from tax planning services, while 35% resulted from consulting services. The firm, contemplating a change to activity-based costing, has identified three components of administrative cost, as follows: Staff Support $ 180,000 In-house computing charges 50,000 Miscellaneous office costs 20,000 Total $ 250,000 A recent analysis of staff support found a strong correlation between the number of staff personnel and the number of clients served (consulting, 20; tax planning, 60). In contrast, in-house computing and miscellaneous office cost varied directly with the number of computer hours logged and number of client transactions, respectively. Consulting consumed 30% of the firm's computer hours and had 20% of the total client transactions. If Bridges and Lloyd switched from its current accounting method to an activity-based costing system, the amount of administrative cost chargeable to consulting services would:
Answer: Decrease by $23,500
Explanation:
The Consulting cost under their current accounting system is:
= 250,000 * 35%
= $87,500
Under Activity based:
Staff support for Consulting:
20 goes to Consulting, 60 to tax planning.
Total = 20 + 60 = 80
Consulting is 20/80 of Staff support amount
= 20/80 * 180,000
= $45,000
In house computing charges for Consulting
Consulting consumed 30% of the firm's computer hours.
= 30% * 50,000
= $15,000
Miscellaneous office costs
Consulting consumed 20% of total client transactions
= 20% * 20,000
= $4,000
Total cost for Consulting under Activity based = 45,000 + 15,000 + 4,000
= $64,000
Difference = 87,500 - 64,000
= $23,500
Shandra Corporation (a U.S.-based company) expects to order goods from a foreign supplier at a price of 131,000 pounds, with delivery and payment to be made on April 20. On February 20, when the spot rate is $1.37 per pound, Shandra purchases a two-month call option on 131,000 pounds and designates this option as a cash flow hedge of a forecasted foreign currency transaction. The time value of the option is excluded in assessing hedge effectiveness; the change in time value is recognized in net income over the life of the option. The option has a strike price of $1.37 per pound and costs $1,310. The goods are received and paid for on April 20. Shandra sells the imported goods in the local market by May 31. The spot rate for pounds is $1.42 on April 20. What amount will Shandra Corporation report as foreign exchange gain or loss in net income for the quarter ended June 30
Answer:
Shandra Corporation
The amount which Shandra Corporation will report as foreign exchange gain in net income for the quarter ended June 30 is:
$5,240
Explanation:
Price of goods = 131,000 pounds
Delivery and payment date = April 20
On February 20, the spot rate for call option on 131,000 pounds = $1.37
Cost of the option = $1,310
The spot rate on April 20 = $1.42
The foreign exchange gain or loss to be reported in net income for the quarter ended June 30 = $0.05 ($1.42 - $1.37
Total gain = ($0.05 * 131,000) - $1,310
= $6,550 - $1,310
= $5,240
b) With this call option, which gives Shandra the right to buy the underlying asset, Shandra hedges his contract to purchase goods from a foreign supplier, and therefore, profits when the spot rate increases from $1.37 on February 20 to $1.42 on April 20. The profit made is reduced by the cost of the call option.

Cost of goods manufactured during the year is $240,000, and work in process inventory on December 31 is $50,000. Work in process inventory during the year decreased by 60%. Total manufacturing costs incurred are
Answer:
$165,000
Explanation:
The first step is to calculate the work in process inventory
= 50,000/40/100
= 50,000/0.4
= 125,000
Therefore the total manufacturing cost can be calculated as follows
= 240,000-125,000+50,000
= 115,000+50,000
= 165,000
Hence the total manufacturing costs is $165,000

Scott wants to accumulate $3,800 over a period of 11 years so that a cash payment can be made for roof maintenance on his summer cottage. To have this amount when it is needed, he will make annual deposits at the end of each year into a savings account that earns 7.0% annual interest per year. How much must each annual deposit be
Answer:
$240.76
Explanation:
The formula to determine the annual deposit is :
p = FV / annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
Annuity factor = (1.07^11 - 1) / 0.07 = 15.783599
p = $3800 / 15.783599 = $240.76
Company C had the following investment. Help them determine the financial statement implications of the investment.

Answer:
$9,156
Explanation:
Income = (Sales-expenses) + $10,000
Income = ($1,670,200 - $1,536,600) + $10,000
Total income = $143,600
Tax = Income * Tax Rate = $143,600 * 0.21 = $30,156
Now, total taxes payable is $30,156,but they estimated that payment to be $21,000, So company C has reserved $21,000 for future tax payments
So, Net deferred tax payable = $30,156 - $21,000 = $9,156. Therefore, ending balance of taxes payable on the 20X1 balance sheet is $9,156.

Analysis of a company's financial statements: Below are simplified versions of the balance sheet and income statement for Toys by Tom, Inc. Use this information to answer the following question. A 15% increase in inventory turns for Toys by Tom, Inc. would bring this ratio to ____, suggesting ________ in ________.
Answer: 3.9 times; an improvement; efficiency
Explanation:
Inventory turns is calculated by the formula:
= COGS / Inventory
= 8.4 / 2.50
= 3.36
Increased by 15%:
= 3.36 * (1 + 15%)
= 3.864
= 3.9 times
Inventory turns is used to show how often the inventory was sold in a period. A higher ratio therefore presents increased efficiency and is desired.
The Morrit Corporation has $900,000 of debt outstanding, and it pays an interest rate of 9% annually. Morrit's annual sales are $6 million, its average tax rate is 25%, and its net profit margin on sales is 3%. If the company does not maintain a TIE ratio of at least 6 to 1, then its bank will refuse to renew the loan, and bankruptcy will result. What is Morrit's TIE ratio
Answer:
TIE ratio = 3.962
Explanation:
given data
debt outstanding = $900000
rate = 9 %
annual sales = $6 million
average tax rate = 25%
net profit margin = 3%
TIE ratio = 6 to 1
solution
first we get here interest amount that is here express as
interest amount = 900000 × 0.09
interest amount = 81000
and
net profit will be 3 % of 6 million
net profit = 180000
so here net profit + tax will be
net profit + tax = profit before tax
net profit + tax = 180000 ÷ (1-0.25)
net profit + tax = 240000
and
profit before tax + interest = earning before interest and tax
profit before tax + interest = 81000+240000
profit before tax + interest = 321000
and
TIE ratio will be
TIE ratio = EBIT ÷ Interest
TIE ratio = 321000 ÷ 81000
TIE ratio = 3.962

Webber Technologies is an emerging manufacturer of 3.5 inch diagonal touch screens for mobile communication devices/media players. 2011 industry sales were reported at 17.50 million units. This number represents an 17.7 % increase over 2010 industry sales. Webber Technologies had a 2010 market share of 5.9 %, compared with a 2011 market share of 4.2%. What was the change in unit sales for Webber Technologies, from 2010 to 2011, attributable to the change in industry sales
Answer:
Industry Sales (2011) = 17,500,000
Industry Sales (2010) = Sales of 2011/1+growth = 17,500,000/1+17.7% = 17,500,000/1.177 = $14868309.26083263 = $14,868,309.26
Company Sales (2011) = 17,500,000 * 4.2% = $735,000
Company Sales (2010) = 14,868,309.26 * 5.9% = $877,230.25
Change in units = Company sales in 2011 - Company Sales in 2010 = $735,000 - $877,230.25 = $142,230.25
Change due to change in Industry growth = Company Sales in 2010 * 17.7% = $877,230.25 * 17.7% = 155,269.75
So, there is net increase of 155,269.75 units of sales due to industry growth.
