Suppose your friend is a music major who sings at weddings. She has no fixed or marginal costs for singing and has two types of customers: 20 customers think it is worth paying $200 to have her sing at their wedding, whereas 10 customers think her singing services are worth only $100. Il earn S if she can charge only one price to:________.
(a) If your friend is able to sing at each wedding and maximizes profits all customers.
(b) She will earn S If she can perfectly price discriminate.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a. $4,000

b. $5,000

Explanation:

a. If she can sing at each wedding but decides to maximise profits, she will only sing at the weddings of those paying her $200 as it is the higher of the two payment options.

Should she sing at the $200 customer weddings, she would make;

= 20 people * $200

= $4,000

b. Price Discrimination is the charging of different types of customers different prices for the same or similar goods.

If your friend knows how to perfectly charge the two different groups the different prices that they value her at then she will be able to attend and sing at both weddings making her revenue;

= (10* $100) + (20 * $200)

= 1,000 + 4,000

= $5,000

Which of the following statements is most CORRECT?a. The firm's taxable income was $637,400. b. The firm's after-tax income was $405,564. c. The firm's marginal tax rate was 39 percent. d. The firm's tax for the year was $113,900. e. None of the above

Answers

Answer:

e. None of the above

Explanation:

total revenue $980,000

- operating costs $196,000

- depreciation $50,000

- interests $95,000

income $639,000

+ dividends from outside corporation = $8,000 x (1 - 80% DRD) = $1,600

total taxable income = $639,000 + $1,600 = $640,600

current corporate tax is 21%, so the company's marginal tax rate would be 21%

income taxes for the year = $640,600 x 21% = $134,526

the company's after tax income = $640,600 - $134,526 = $506,074

The receiving department has three activities: unloading, counting goods, and inspecting. Unloading uses a forklift that is leased for $15,000 per year. The forklift is used only for unloading. The fuel for the forklift is $3,600 per year. Other operating costs (maintenance) for the forklift total $1,500 per year. Inspection uses some special testing equipment that has depreciation of $1,200 per year and an operating cost of $750. Receiving has three employees who have an average salary of $50,000 per year. The work distribution matrix for the receiving personnel is as follows:
Activity Percentage of Time on Each Activity
Unloading 40%
Counting 25
Inspecting 35
No other resources are used for these activities.
Required:
Calculate the cost of each activity.
Unloading $
Counting $
Inspecting $

Answers

Answer:

Calculating the cost of each activity,

Unloading = $ 80,100

Counting = $ 37,500

Inspecting = $54,450

Explanation:

Given:

Unloading lease = $15,000 per year

Fuel for the forklift = $3,600 per year

Maintenance for the forklift = $1,500 per year

Inspection uses some special testing equipment that has depreciation of $1,200 per year

Operating cost = $750.

Receiving employees average salary = $50,000 per year

Salaries; 3 × 50,000 = 150,000

Unloading salary = 40%  × 150,000 = 60,000

Counting salary = 25%  × 150,000 = 37,500

Inspecting salary = 35% × 150,000 = 52,500

Megginson, Inc. issued a five-year corporate bond of $300,000 with a 5% interest rate for $290,000. What effect would the bond issuance have on Megginson, Inc.'s accounting equation

Answers

Answer:

Megginson, Inc.

Effect of the Bond Issuance on Megginson, Inc.'s accounting equation:

(The account equation states that Assets = Liabilities + Equity.)

With the bond issuance, the Assets (Cash) will increase by $290,000 and the Liabilities (Bonds Payable) will increase by $300,000, and there will be a loss (Equity - Retained Earnings) of $10,000 in the form of Discount on Bonds.  This discount on bonds is usually amortized over the bonds' life, thus increasing the interest payable.

Explanation:

The issuance of bonds is one of the means of obtaining finance for business operations.  It is a long-term borrowing, which entities use to finance the activities when funds cannot be sourced from other sources or when it is considered cheaper to borrow from outside sources.

Assume the following cost of goods sold data for a company: 2018$1417000 20171204000 20161018000 If 2016 is the base year, what is the percentage increase in cost of goods sold from 2016 to 2018

Answers

Answer:

39.19%

Explanation:

2018              $1,417,000

2017              $1,204,000

2016              $1,018,000

if 2016 was the base year, then the % from 2016 to 2018 = ($1,417,000 - $1,018,000) / $1,018,100 = 39.19%

we can also calculate the % increase from 2016 - 2017 and from 2017 - 2018 in a similar manner:

2016 to 2017 increase = ($1,204,000 - $1,018,000) / $1,018,100 = 18.27%

2017 to 2018 increase = ($1,417,000 - $1,204,000) / $1,204,100 = 17.69%

a. obtain damages from HLI.
b. recover nothing.
c. set aside the settlement withHLI.

Answers

Answer: set aside the settlement withHLI.

Explanation:

From the question, Linea, who is an employee of Hard Labor Industries (HLI), is injured in a work-related accident and based on the diagnosis of Newt, who is a doctor, Linea accepts $50,000 from HLI and waives the right to future claims.

We are also informed that Newt's diagnosis later proves to have been wrong. In terms of the impact on Linea's agreement with HLI, Newt's mis-diagnosis is to set aside the settlement with HLI.

This will be necessary to make them understand that it was a mistake and make a settlement with Hard Labor Industries so that Linea won't be affected as they make think she has it planned in order to collect money from them so the hospital should make a settlement.

The expected average rate of return for a proposed investment of $636,800 in a fixed asset with a useful life of 4 years, straight-line depreciation, no residual value, and an expected total net income of $191,560 for the 4 years is (round to two decimal points)

Answers

Answer: 15.96

Explanation:

The expected rate of return will be the Average income divided by the average cost.

It is stated that the asset has a useful life of 4 years with no residual value so at the end of 4 years it will be worth $0.

The Average Cost/ Value of the Asset is calculated as;

= (Beginning Asset value - Ending Asset Value) / 2

= (600,000 - 0) /2

= 300,000

Total Income of $191,560 for the 4 years so Average income will be,

= 191,560/4

= $47,890

Expected Average Rate of Return = 47,890/300,000

= 15.96%

Answers

Answer:

1. What was the balance in gross accounts receivable as of 12/31/2020?

= allowance for doubtful accounts 2020 / 10% = $28,000 / 10% = $280,000

2. What journal entry should Johnson record to recognize bad debt expense for 2021?

Dr Bad debt expense (= 46,670 + 51,300) 97,970

3. Assume Johnson made no other adjustment of the allowance for uncollectible accounts during 2021. Determine the amount of accounts receivable written off during 2021.

= credit balance allowance for doubtful accounts January 1 + debit balance allowance for doubtful accounts December 31 = $28,000 + $51,300 = $79,300

4. If Johnson instead used the direct write-off method, what would the bad debt expense be

The bad debt expense would equal $79,300. The allowance for doubtful accounts is used as an estimate of future bad debt expense, while the direct write off method directly writes off bad debt as they occur.

Explanation:

beginning balance of allowance for doubtful accounts $28,000

gross accounts receivable $466,700 x 10% = $46,670 bad debt

before adjustments, the allowance for doubtful accounts had a debit balance of $51,300

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

For each situation, identify the possible root cause or causes of activity cost, among these:

1. Plant Layout

2. Process design

3. Product design

(A) PROCESS DESIGN

The design of the process of production is the root cause of activity cost here. From the rates given, it's clear that the manual method of production costs more time and money than the mechanical production method.

A minor cause of activity cost here is the PRODUCT DESIGN; the cost of which varies with the use of labour and the use of machine.

(B) PRODUCT DESIGN

Change in design of the gear (removal of some component parts) reduces set up time and cost.

(C) PLANT LAYOUT

Redesign of manufacturing plant saves the time and cost of moves.

5. Which of the following types of bonds has the least default risk?
A. Corporate bonds
B. Treasury bonds
C. Municipal bonds

Answers

Answer: 1. A . Treasury bonds are not completely riskless, since their prices will decline when interest rates rise.

2. A. The New York City government

3. B. Municipal bonds

4. A. An investor from Kansas that invests in a municipal bond issued by the State of Kansas will pay neither state nor federal taxes on the bond’s coupon payments

5. B. Treasury bonds

Explanation:

1. Treasury Bonds are known as the safest bonds in the world and so are generally considered risk-less. However this is not so as they still fall victim to Interest rate risk which is the risk that their prices will decline when interest rates rise because bond prices are inversely related to price.

2. The City of New York issued to bonds in question so it is a New York City Government bond.

3. Municipal Bonds are issued by a state, county or a municipality so the above is a Municipal bond as it was issued by the City of New York.

4. Municipal Bonds attract no Federal taxes and when buying a Municipal bond as a resident of the Municipality you are in, you will.not get charged the Municipal taxes either on the bond coupon payments.

5. Default risk is the risk that the issuer will not pay back. US Treasury Bonds are known as the safest in the world and have not been defaulted on in over a century. They therefore have the lowest default risk.

g n a certain economy, when income is $100, consumer spending is $60. The value of the multiplier for this economy is 4. It follows that, when income is $101, consumer spending is a. $60.25. b. $60.75. c. $61.33. d. $64.00.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option (b) $60.75

Explanation:

Solution

Given that

A certain economy, Income is =$100

Consumer spending is =$60

The value of multiplier is =4

Now we need to know when the income is $101, consumer spending, the customer spending will be what?

Now,

Multiplier (k)= 1/1-MPC (marginal propensity to consume)

4=1/1-MPC

Thus

MPC= 1-1/4

MPC=3/4

MPC=.75

So,

MPC= Change in consumption/change in income.

.75=Change in C/101-100

Change in C=.75*1

Change in C=.75

Hence

The new consumption =60+.75=60.75

Therefore, when the income is $101, the consumer spending is $60.75

Based on the income and the amount of money spent from it, the consumer spending at that amount will be b. $60.75

The question can be answered with the Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC) which is calculated as:

Multiplier = 1 / (1 - MPC)

4 = 1 / (1 - MPC)

MPC = 0.75

If the income is $101, the amount that will be spent is:

= Income + (Increase in income x Marginal Propensity to Consume)

= 100 + (1 x 0.75)

= $60.75

In conclusion, $60.75 will be the consumer spending.

Assuming the preferred stock is cumulative and noncumulative, how much of the $22,000 dividend will be paid to preferred stockholders and how much will be paid to common stockholders in 2018? Cumlative Non Cumlativepreferred Dividends for 2018 preferred Dividends in arrears for 2017 Remaining Dividends to common stockholders Total Dividens:

Answers

Answer:

1.

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $20000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $2000

2.

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $10000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 =  $12000

Explanation:

The preferred stock dividends are always paid before the common stock dividends.

Cumulative preferred stock is the stock which accumulates or accrues dividends if the dividends are partially paid or not paid at all in a particular year. These dividends are accrued and are required to be paid by the company whenever it declares dividends.

Non cumulative preferred stock does not accrue or accumulates dividends. Thus, if dividends are not paid in a particular year, the company has no obligation to pay these dividends ever in the future.

1.

If the preferred stock is assumed to be cumulative, then the dividends in arrears for 2017 will be paid in 2018 along with dividends for 2018 on preferred stock before paying the common stock holders.

Preferred stock dividend per year = 2000 * 100 * 0.05  

Preferred stock dividend per year = $10000

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 10000 + 10000 = $20000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 22000 - 20000 = $2000

2.

If the preferred stock is assumed to be non cumulative, then the dividends in arrears for 2017 will not be paid in 2018. Only the dividends for 2018 on preferred stock will be paid before paying the common stock holders.

Preferred stock dividend per year = 2000 * 100 * 0.05  

Preferred stock dividend per year = $10000

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $10000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 22000 - 10000 = $12000

Jason just joined a new gym and signed up for a one-year membership. Membership fees can be paid in 12 monthly payments of $50, due at the beginning of each month or in one payment today. If the appropriate interest rate is 11%,.How much should he pay today for the annual membership?

Answers

Answer:

$570.91

Explanation:

For computing, the amount pay today for the annual membership we just need to apply the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attachment

Provided that

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 11% ÷ 12 months  = 0.916666%

NPER = 12 months

PMT = $50

The formula is shown below:

= PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after applying the above formula, the amount paid today for the membership is $570.91

Gilbert Company generated sales revenues of $1,800,000 in 2017. Its cost of goods sold amounted to $990,000. Calculate Gilbert's gross profit percentage. Supporting Materials Cost of goods sold / Group of answer choices 55% 45% 222% 182%

Answers

Answer:

45%

Explanation:

The computation of the gross profit percentage is shown below:

As we know that

Gross profit percentage = Gross profit ÷ Sale revenue × 100

where,

Gross profit is

= Sales revenue - the cost of goods sold

= $1,800,000 - $990,000

= $810,000

And, the sales revenue is $1,800,000

So, the gross profit percentage is

= $810,000 ÷ $1,800,000

= 45%

Hence, the gross profit percentage is 45%

Tax is a compulsory sum levied on goods and services. Taxes increases the price of goods and services

Supply is elastic if a small change in price leads to a greater change in the quantity supplied.

Demand is inelastic if there's little or no change in demand when price is increased.

More burden of tax should fall on the consumers because their demand is inelastic. So, if prices rise as a result of the tax, there would be little or no change in quantity demanded.

But in the case of suppliers, they are sensitive to price and a rise in price would cause quantity supplied to fall and revenue would fall.

Torque Manufacturing forecasts that its production will require 600,000 tons of bauxite over its planning period. Demand for Torque's products is stable over time. Ordering costs amount to an average of $15.00 per order. Holding costs are estimated at $1.25 per ton of bauxite. If Torque uses an inventory quantity of 3,000 tons, what will be the total annual cost of inventory

Answers

Answer:

Total annual cost of inventory is 4875.

Explanation:

The demand for bauxite by Torque manufacturing  (A) = 600000 tons.

It is given that the demand is stable.

The average ordering cost of bauxite (O) = $15 per order.

The cost of holding to bauxite (CP)  = $1.25 per ton.

The economics order quantity (EOQ) = 3000

The total annual cost of inventory = ordering cost  + inventory cost

[tex]\text{Total annual cost} = \frac{A}{EOQ} \times O + \frac{EOQ}{2} \times CP \\[/tex]
