Answer:
Unearned membership revenue of $9,000
Explanation:
The sales on credit during January 2017 was valued at $12,000 ($200 x 60).
In March 2017, customers paid $3,000, leaving the balance of $9,000 outstanding.
Since the season for which sales and collections were made starts March 1, 2017, when reporting the financial statements for the period ending March 31, 2017, the Membership Revenue would be $3,000 only and the balance $9,000 would be reported as Unearned Membership Revenue in the Balance Sheet with a further $9,000 reported in the Accounts Receivable to balance the records.
This shows that Unearned Membership Revenue of $9,000 is the only valid statement.
AllCity, Inc., is financed 36 % with debt, 14 % with preferred stock, and 50 % with common stock. Its cost of debt is 5.7 %, its preferred stock pays an annual dividend of $ 2.45 and is priced at $ 29. It has an equity beta of 1.13. Assume the risk-free rate is 2.4 %, the market risk premium is 7.3 % and AllCity's tax rate is 35 %. What is its after-tax WACC? g
Answer:
WACC is 7.84%
Explanation:
First we need to calculate the after-tax cost of debt
Cost of Debt (after Tax) = Pre-tax cost of debt ( 1 - Tax rate )
Cost of Debt (after Tax) = 5.7% x ( 1 - 35% ) = 3.705%
Now calculate the cost of preferred share
Cost of preferred share = Dividend on Preferred share / Market value of preferred share
Cost of preferred share = $2.45 / $29 = 0.0845 = 8.45%
Now calculate the cost f equity
Cost of equity = Rf + Beta x Market risk premium
Cost of equity = 2.4% + 1.13 x 7.3%
Cost of equity = 2.4% + 8.249%
Cost of equity = 10.649%
Now use following formula to calclulate the WACC
WACC = ( Cost of Equity x Weight of common stock ) + ( Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt ) + ( Cost of preferred share x weight of preferred share )
WACC = ( 10.649% x 50% ) + ( 3.705% x 36% ) + ( 8.45% x 14% )
WACC = 5.3245% + 1.3338% + 1.183%
WACC = 7.8413%
Pizza is a normal good if the demand:__________
a. for pizza rises when income rises.
b. for pizza rises when the price of pizza falls.
c. curve for pizza slopes upward.
d. curve for pizza shifts to the right when the price of burritos rises, assuming pizza and burritos are substitutes.
Answer:
a. for pizza rises when income rises.
Explanation:
A normal good is a good that people purchase more when their income increases and that have a lower demand when their income decreases, for example, clothing. According to this, the answer is that Pizza is a normal good if the demand for pizza rises when income rises.
The other options are not right because a normal good is determined by the way in which the demand of a product behaves when the income increases or decreases.
Computing unit and inventory costs under absorption costing LO P1

Overhead costs for the year $100,000 per year
Variable overhead 200,000 per year
Fixed overhead Units produced this year 25,000 units
Units sold this year 19,000 units
Ending finished goods inventory in units 6,000 units
Compute the cost per unit using absorption costing Cost per unit of finished goods using: Absorption costing Cost per unit of finished goods
Determine the cost of ending finished goods inventory using absorption costing
Answer:
Unitary production cost= $42
Ending inventory= $252,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials $ 13 per unit
Direct labor $ 17 per unit
Fixed overhead costs for the year= $100,000 per year
Variable overhead= 200,000 per year
Units produced this year 25,000 units
Ending finished goods inventory in units 6,000 units
The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.
First, we need to calculate the unitary fixed and variable cost:
Unitary overhead= (100,000 + 200,000)/25,000= $12
Unitary production cost= 13 + 17 + 12= $42
COGS= 19,000*42= $798,000
Ending inventory= 6,000*42= $252,000

Determine the total equivalent units for direct materials, assuming that the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories. Assume that all direct materials are placed in the process at the beginning of production.
Answer:
37,000 units
Explanation:
The computation of the total equivalent units for direct material is shown below:
= Transferred to finished goods during the month of July + Ending work in process during the month of July - Inventory in process, July 1
= 37,500 units + 3,500 units - 4,000 units
= 41,000 units - 4,000 units
= 37,000 units
We simply applied the above formula so that the total equivalent units for direct materials could come
A well-known industrial firm has issued $1,000 bonds that carry a 4% coupon interest rate paid semiannually. The bonds mature 20 years from now, at which time the industrial firm will redeem them from $1,000 plus the terminal semiannual interest payment. From the financial pages of your newspaper you learn that the bonds may be purchased for $715 each ($710 for the bond plus a $5 sales commission). What nominal annual rate of return would you receive if you purchased the bond now and held it to maturity 20 years from now
Answer:
5.59%
Explanation:
$1,000 bonds carrying a 4% coupon rate, semiannual coupon $20, matures in 20 years
if you purchase the bonds at $715, the nominal annual rate of return = coupon payments / bond price = ($20 + $20) / $715 = $40 / $715 = 5.59%
The nominal annual rate of return is calculated by dividing the revenue generated by an investment by the cost of the investment.
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
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%
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)
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%

Consider the simple leisure model in which the individual chooses between leisure (L) and money income (M). The marginal utility of leisure (MUL) is 15 and the marginal utility of money (MUM) is 3. At the optimum, the wage rate:_______
a. $45
b. $0.20
c. $5
d. $15
Answer:
Wage rate is $5
Explanation:
The marginal utility of money=marginal utility of leisure/wage rate
When the formula is rearranged,wage rate is given thus:
wage rate=marginal utility of leisure/marginal utility of money
wage rate=15/3
wage rate =$5
In other words, the correct option is C,wage rate is $5
Option D would have been correct if the requirement was to calculate marinal utility of leisure

If it wants to increase the production of Alpha, it could pay as much as ($195 - $183) / 8 = $1.50 extra per pound if it wants to maximize profits. Maximum price = $6.50 per pound. At this point, marginal revenue = price.
Taco Hut purchased equipment on May 1, 2021, for $12,000. Residual value at the end of an estimated eight-year service life is expected to be $3,000. Calculate depreciation expense using the straight-line method for 2021 and 2022, assuming a December 31 year-end. (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer:
Depreciation expense in 2021 = $750
Depreciation expense in 2021 = $1125
Explanation:
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($12,000 - $3,000) / 8 = $1125
Depreciation expense each year would be $1125.
Depreciation expense in 2021
There are 12 months in a year, so the depreciation expense each month would be $1125 / 12 = $93.75
Number of months in 2021 for which asset is used ( May to December) = 8 months
$93.75 x 8 = $750
Depreciation expense in 2022 would be $1125 since the machine was used for a full year.

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
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]
[tex]\text{Total annual cost} = \frac{600000}{3000} \times 15 + \frac{3000}{2} \times 1.25 = 4875[/tex]

If the economy booms, RTF, Inc., stock is expected to return 11 percent. If the economy goes into a recessionary period, then RTF is expected to only return 4 percent. The probability of a boom is 72 percent while the probability of a recession is 28 percent. What is the variance of the returns on RTF, Inc., stock
Answer:
0.000988
Explanation:
For calculation of the variance of the returns on RTF, Inc., stock first we need to find out the expected rate of return which is shown below:-
Expected rate of return = (Boom percentage × Expected return) + (Recession percentage × Expected return)
= (0.72 × 0.11) + (0.28 × 0.04)
= 9.04%
The Variance of the returns = Boom percentage × (Expected return - Expected rate of return)^2 + Probability recession × (Expected return - Expected rate of return)^2
= 72% × (0.11 - 0.0904)^2 + 28% × (0.04 - 0.0904)^2
= 0.000988
Suppose a consumer has the following utility function defined over the 2 goods X and Y: a. If this consumer originally consumed 10 units of X and 24 units of Y, and if the consumption of X were increased to 12 units, how much Y would be would the consumer be willing to give up and maintain the initial level of satisfaction
Answer:
Y = 22 units (Approx)
Explanation:
Note:
The utility function is not given, the utility function is as follows.
U(X ,Y) = 2X + [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
So,
U(X ,Y) = 2X + [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
When X = 10 and Y = 24 units
U(10 ,24) = 2(10) + [tex]16(24)^{1/2}[/tex]
U(10 ,24) = 98.4
U(10 ,24) = 99 Units (Approx)
So,
U(X ,Y) = 2X + [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
When X = 12 Find Y
99 units = 2(12) + [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
75 = [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
Y = 21.97
Y = 22 units (Approx)
You are the financial manager for a recreation center that has signed an option to purchase new elliptical machines for $22,000 in two years. If you have an investment opportunity that guarantees 7% interest, how much must you invest to have the necessary funds to purchase the elliptical machines
Answer:
$19,215.65
Explanation:
To the determine the amount to be invested, we have to find the present value of $22,000 at 7%
P= FV ( 1 + r) ^-n
FV = Future value = $22,000
P = Present value
R = interest rate = 7%
N = number of years = 2
$22,000(1.07)^-2 = $19,215.65

A portfolio consists of $13,600 in Stock M and $19,400 invested in Stock N. The expected return on these stocks is 8.10 percent and 11.70 percent, respectively. What is the expected return on the portfolio
Answer:
Portfolio return is 10.22%
Explanation:
The expected return of a portfolio is the function of the weighted average of the individual stock returns that form up the portfolio. The formula to calculate the expected return of the portfolio is as follows,
Portfolio Return = wA * rA + wB * rB + ... + wN * rN
Where,
w is the weightage of each asset/stock in the portfolior is the return of each stockThe weightage of each stock can be calculated by dividing the investment in the stock by the total investment in the portfolio.
Total investment - portfolio = 13600 + 19400 = $33000
Portfolio Return = 13600/33000 * 0.0810 + 19400/33000 * 0.1170
Portfolio Return = 0.10216 or 10.216% rounded off to 10.22%
