he following labor standards have been established for a particular product: Standard labor-hours per unit of output 10.1 hours Standard labor rate $ 13.90 per hour The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual hours worked 7,900 hours Actual total labor cost $ 106,650 Actual output 1,100 units
What is the labor efficiency variance for the month?
a. $47,779 F
b. $47,779 U
c. $43,335 F
d. $44,619 F
Answer:
d. $44,619 Favorable
Explanation:
Given the above information, labor efficiency variance is computed as;
= (Standard quantity - Actual quantity) × Standard rate
Standard quantity = 10.1 × 1,100 = 11110
Actual quantity = 7,900
Standard rate = $13.9
Then,
Labor efficiency variance =
(11,110 - 7,900) × $13.90
= (3,210) × $13.90
= $44,619 favorable

For what reason might keeping an accounts payable subsidiary ledger be unnecessary for a business? A. if the business is very small B. if the business processes invoices for payment. C. if the business pays only on account D. if the business has more customers then vendors
Answer:
A. if the business is very small
Explanation:
Subsidiary ledgers are maintained to support the entries in the main ledger. They give more details of the individual items in the main ledger.
They are usually used when a company has large sales volumes to make sure transactions are accurate.
However in small businesses there no need for subsidiary ledger in a small company.
Accounts payable subsidiary ledger shows details of amounts owed to suppliers by a business.
When the business is very small there will be no need for this.
On March 1, 2021, McHugh Enterprises issued 1000 of its 8%, $1,000 bonds dated January 1, 2021 at 98. Interest is payable semiannually on January 1 and July 1. The bonds mature on January 1, 2031. McHugh paid $50,000 in bond issue costs. McHugh uses straight-line amortization. The interest expense recognized on July 1, 2021 will be:__________
Answer: $82000
Explanation:
Interest will be calculated as:
= No of shares x Face value per Share x Interest rate
= 1000 × $1000 × 8%
= 1000 × $1000 × 0.08
= $80000
Total face value of shares issued = 1000 × $1000 = $1,000,000
Issue Amount will be:
= No of shares x Face value per Share x Issue rate
= 1,000 x 1,000 x 98 %
= $980,000
Discount on issue will be:
= $1,000,000 - $980,000
= $20,000
Amortization of Discount on issue per annum will be:
= $20,000/10
= $2000
Therefore, interest expense will be:
= $80000 + $2000
= $82000

Sabrina Company borrowed $225,000 to buy an equipment on January 1, 2019, and signed a 7% instalment note requiring annual equal payments of $24,704, including principal and interest at the end of every year for 15 years. Rounded to the nearest dollar, determine the balance in the Instalment Note Payable account on January 1, 2021, after making the first two annual payments.
a. $189,613.
b. $206,466.
c. $199.194.
d. $216,046.
Answer:
The correct option is b. $206,466.
Explanation:
Interest expense on December 31, 2019 = Note payable on January 1, 2019 * Interest rate = $225,000 * 7% = $15,750
Principal paid on December 31, 2019 = Annual fixed installment - Interest expense on December 31, 2019 = $24,704 - $15,750 = $8,954
Note Payable balance on January 1, 2020 = Note payable on January 1, 2019 - Principal paid on December 31, 2019 = $225,000 - $8,954 = $216,046
Interest expense on December 31, 2020 = Note payable on January 1, 2020 * Interest rate =$216,046 * 7% = $15,123
Principal paid on December 31, 2020 = Annual fixed installment - Interest expense on December 31, 2020 = $24,704 - $15,123 = $9,581
Note Payable balance on January 1, 2021 = Note payable balance on January 1, 2020 - Principal paid on December 31, 2020 = $216,046 - $9,581 = 206,465
From the options in the question, the closest one to the Note Payable balance on January 1, 2021 calculated above is b. $206,466. Therefore, the correct option is b. $206,466.
Following the sale by one of its partners of her interest in the partnership, Glendale Partnership is required to increase the basis of its assets under Code Sec. 743(b). The total Code Sec. 743(b) adjustment is $8,000. The purchasing partner's share of the partnership's assets is as follows:
Inventory $2,000 $5,000
Property 1 (Sec. 1231 asset) 10,000 25,000
Property 2 (Sec. 1231 asset) 20,000 10,000
$32,000 $40,000
How much of the basis adjustment should be allocated to the inventory?
a. $1,000.
b. $3,000.
c. zero.
d. none of these.
Answer:
b. $3,000.
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of the basis adjustment allocated to the inventory is shown below;
= $5,000 - $2,000
= $3,000
This $3,000 would represent the basis adjustment and the same would be allocated to the inventory
hence, the correct option is b.
And, the rest of the options would be incorrect
Assume that during 2019, Cypress Semiconductor Corporation reported net cash provided by operating activities of $155,955,000, net cash used in investing activities of $207,200,000 (including cash spent for plant assets of $132,930,000), and net cash used in financing activities of $33,350,000. Dividends of $4,860,000 were paid.
Required:
Calculate free cash flow.
Answer:
$18,165,000
Explanation:
Given that;
Cash provided by operating activities = $155,955,000
Net cash used in investing activities = $207,200,000 (including cash spent for plant asset of $132,930,000)
Net cash used in financing activities = $33,350,000
Dividends = $4,860,000
Then,
The free cash flow
= Cash provided by operating activities - Net cash used in investing activities - Dividends
= $155,955,000 - $132,930,000 - $4,860,000
= $18,165,000
The Pampered Pet Shop operates in a perfectly competitive industry and hires you as an economic consultant. The firm is currently producing at a point where market price equals its marginal cost. Its market price is less than its average variable cost. You advise the firm to:_____.
a. raise its price until it breaks even.
b. lower it's price so it can sell more units of output.
c. cease production immediately, because it is incurring a loss.
d. produce in the short run to minimize its loss, but exit the industry in the long run.
Answer:
c. cease production immediately, because it is incurring a loss.
Explanation:
When a business engages in production it looks to make profit. That is for the production price to be higher than cost incurred in producing the good.
However when the price is lower than the average variable cost as is indicated in the scenario then the firm needs to shut down production in the short term.
Factors that will adversely affect a firm in the short term are price, average total cost, and average variable cost.
Once price is less than average total cost or average variable cost it is better to stop production.
As they are incurring an economic loss
Answer: cease production immediately, because it is incurring a loss
Explanation:
A perfectly competitive industry is an industry whereby firms make similar products, and there are many firms and customers.
Since from the scenario, the market price is less than its average variable cost, it is advisable for the firm to stop producing. This is because the firm isn't covering its variable cost, therefore it's running at a loss.

On January 1, Marigold Corp. issued $6600000, 9% bonds for $7029000. The market rate of interest for these bonds is 8%. Interest is payable annually on December 31. Marigold uses the effective-interest method of amortizing bond premium. At the end of the first year, Marigold should report unamortized bond premium of:________
a) $397320
b) $398580
c) $375320
d) $297000
Answer:
a) $397320
Explanation:
Total premium of bond = Issue price - Par value
Total premium of bond = $7,029,000 - $6,600,000
Total premium of bond = $429,000
Total Annual payment to be made by firm = Coupon rate* par value of bond
= 0.09*$6,600,000
= $594,000
Interest part of the total annual payment made by firm = Market rate*Issue price of bond
= 0.08*$7,029,000
= $562,320
Premium of bond to be amortized at the end of year 1 = Total Annual payment to be made by firm - Interest part of the total annual payment made by firm
= $594,000 - $562,320
= $31,680
Unamortized premium at the end of year 1 = total premium of bond - amortized premium at the end of year 1
= $429,000 - $31,680
= $397,320

Answer:
He should choose Option B because it has the highest equivalent annual annuity,
Explanation:
To decide which option is better, calculate the equivalent annual annuity using the following formula
Equivalent Annual Annuity = Total Present value / Total Present value Factor
Option A
Where
Total Present value = $37,245,058
Total Present value Factor = 5.30781306
Placing values in the formula
Equivalent Annual Annuity = $37,245,058 / 5.30781306 = $7,017,025.18
Option B
Where
Total Present value = $46,675,950
Total Present value Factor = 4.144303839
Placing values in the formula
Equivalent Annual Annuity = $46,675,950 / 4.144303839 = $11,262,675.64
Option C
Where
Total Present value = $48,905,550
Total Present value Factor = 4.754748665
Placing values in the formula
Equivalent Annual Annuity = $48,905,550 / 4.754748665 = $10,285,622.48
Tyreek Hill should choose option C.
In order to determine the choice he would make, the present value of each option has to be determined. Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows. Present value can be determined using a financial calculator.
Present value of Option A using a discount rate of 10.375% = 37.28 million

Butler Corporation is considering the purchase of new equipment costing $84,000. The projected annual after-tax net income from the equipment is $3,000, after deducting $28,000 for depreciation. The revenue is to be received at the end of each year. The machine has a useful life of 3 years and no salvage value. Butler requires a 9% return on its investments. The present value of an annuity of $1 for different periods follows:
Periods 11 Percent
1 0.9009
2 1.7125
3 2.4437
4 3.1024
What is the net present value of the machine?
a. $(4,502).
b. $48,000.
c. $5,400.
d. $43,498.
e. $39,099.
Answer:
($16,2470.30)
Explanation:
After-tax cash flow = After-tax net income + Depreciation
After-tax cash flow = $3,000 + $28,000
After-tax cash flow = $31,000
Net present value = Purchase cost + After-tax cash flow*PVIFA(%, n)
Net present value = -$84,000 + $31,000*PVIFA(9%, 3)
Net present value = -$84,000 + $31,000*2.5313
Net present value = -$84,000 + $78,470.30
Net present value = -$16,2470.30

The Morgan Corporation has two different bonds currently outstanding. Bond M has a face value of $30,000 and matures in 20 years. The bond makes no payments for the first six years, then pays $800 every six months over the subsequent eight years, and finally pays $1,000 every six months over the last six years. Bond N also has a face value of $30,000 and a maturity of 20 years; it makes no coupon payments over the life of the bond. If the required return on both these bonds is 8 percent compounded semiannually, what is the current price of Bond M? of Bond N?
Answer:
a. Current value of Bond M = $5,066.47
b. Current value of Bond N = $1,380.93
Explanation:
a. Calculation of current price of Bond M
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the total present of value of the coupon payment of Bond M.
From the attached excel file, we have:
Total present of value of the coupon payment of Bond M = $3,685.54
Present value of the face value of Bond M = Face value / (100% + Required return)^(Number of years to maturity * Number of years in a year) = $30,000 / (100% + 8%)^(20 * 2) = $1,380.93
Current value of Bond M = Total present of value of the coupon payment of Bond M + Present value of the face value of Bond M = $3,685.54 + $1,380.93 = $5,066.47
b. Calculation of current price of Bond N
Since no coupon payments is made over the life of Bond N, we have:
Current value of Bond N = Present value of the face value of Bond N = Face value / (100% + Required return)^(Number of years to maturity * Number of years in a year) = $30,000 / (100% + 8%)^(20 * 2) = $1,380.93
