Answer:
Corrected Income before taxes are $115,000 (2015), $315,000 (2016) and $185,000 (2017)
Explanation:
in the calculation of a company's income before tax, the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) is done using the basic formulae by Adding Opening year inventory with Purchases and subtracting Ending year Inventory. In the case where Ending year inventory has been overstated, the COGS that has been calculated is understated which implies that the Income before tax has been overstated.
In the vice versa scenario, where Ending year inventory has been understated, the COGS that has been calculated is overstated which implies that the Income before tax has been understated. The calculation of the same is done below:
Year 2015
Income Before Tax (Previous) - Ending year Inventory = Income before Tax (Corrected)
138,000 - 23,000 = $115,000
Year 2016
Income Before Tax (Previous) + Ending year Inventory = Income before Tax (Corrected)
254,000 + 61,000 = $315,000
Year 2017
Income Before Tax (Previous) + Ending year Inventory = Income before Tax (Corrected)
168,000 + 17,000 = $185,000

Radek computes a total of $3,200 in estimated uncollectible accounts as of its current year-end. Its accounts receivable has a balance of $73,000, and its allowance for uncollectible accounts has an unused balance of $900 before any year-end adjustments. What amount of bad debts expense will Radek Company report in its income statement for the current year
Answer:
the bad debt expense that reported in the income statement is $2,300
Explanation:
The computation of the bad debt expense that reported in the income statement is as follows;
= Total estimated uncollectible accounts - unused balance
= $3,200 - $900
= $2,300
Hence, the bad debt expense that reported in the income statement is $2,300
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
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
The Tinsley Company exchanged land that it had been holding for future plant expansion for a more suitable parcel located farther from residential areas. Tinsley carried the land at its original cost of $62,500. According to an independent appraisal, the land currently is worth $150,000. Tinsley paid $25,000 in cash to complete the transaction. Required: 1. What is the fair value of the new parcel of land received by Tinsley assuming the exchange has commercial substance
Answer:
$175,000
Explanation:
When an exchange transaction has commercial substance, the accounting standard IAS 16 requires that the cost price of the item acquired be at fair Value of the asset given up.
Fair Value of Asset given up is $150,000.
However Tinsley has also paid a trade -in allowance for the new parcel of land of $25,000.
Therefore, the fair value of the new parcel of land received by Tinsley assuming the exchange has commercial substance is $175,000 ($150,000 + $25,000)

Company C had the following investment. Help them determine the financial statement implications of the investment. Tax rate 21% Estimated tax payment 21,000 Investment cost and ending fair values for 20X1 and 20X2: 20X1 20X2 Cost 100,000 100,000 Fair value 110,000 134,000 Total gain 10,000 34,000 20X1 income statement information: Sales 1,670,200 Expenses 1,536,600 Assuming the investement is short-term, what is the ending balance of taxes payable on the 20X1 balance sheet?
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.

Answer:
ABC Services
The total liabilities at the end of September, 2013
= $9,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Capital contribution = $23,500
Equipment = $11,500
Cash payment for equipment = $2,500
Note payable on equipment = $9,000
Insurance expense paid = $1,350
Utility expense paid = $980
Rent paid = $2,000
Sales = $12,000
Cash Sales = $7,200 (60% of $12,000)
Credit Sales = $4,800 (40% of $12,000)
Office furniture paid = $9,700
Therefore, total liabilities at the end of September, 2013 = $9,000. This represents the note payable for the office equipment purchased in B.

DRK, Inc., has just sold 100,000 shares in an initial public offering. The underwriter’s explicit fees were $60,000. The offering price for the shares was $40, but immediately upon issue, the share price jumped to $44. a. What is the total cost to DRK of the equity issue? b. Is the entire cost of the underwriting a source of profit to the underwriters? multiple choice Yes No
Answer: a. $460,000 ; b. No
Explanation:
a. What is the total cost to DRK of the equity issue?
First, we calculate the implicit cost per share which will be:
= $44 - $40 = $4.
Therefore, the total implicit cost will be:
= $4 × 100,000
= $400,000
Therefore, total cost to DRK of the equity issue will be:
= Implicit cost + Explicit cost
= $400,000 + $60,000
= $460,000
b. Is the entire cost of the underwriting a source of profit to the underwriters?
No. The entire cost of the underwriting would not be a source of profit to the underwriters. This is because the cost of underpricing isn't included.

Total cost is increasing slower and slower. marginal cost falls.
Answer:
The following cost information shows that as production increases, the
average total cost decreases and then increases.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Quantity Total Cost Marginal Average
produced/day Cost Total Cost
0 $2,000 $2,000 $0
1 $2,500 $500 $2,500
2 $2,800 $300 $1,400
3 $3,300 $500 $1,100
4 $4,100 $800 $1,025
5 $5,300 $1,200 $1,060
6 $7,000 $1,700 $1,167
b) The average total cost is the total cost divided by the quantity produced per day. When no unit was produced, the company still incurred some cost, known as fixed cost for production infrastructure, etc. As the quantity produced increases, the average total cost tends to decrease until the quantity increased to 5 units. Perhaps, the factory capacity was exceeded at this point. No wonder the entity recorded an increase in the average total cost.
You are considering an investment in Cruise, Inc. and want to evaluate the firm's free cash flow. From the income statement, you see that Cruise earned an EBIT of $203 million, paid taxes of $50 million, and its depreciation expense was $74 million. Cruise's gross fixed assets increased by $71 million from 2017 to 2018. The firm's current assets decreased by $11 million and spontaneous current liabilities increased by $6.1 million. What is Cruise's operating cash flow, investment in operating capital and free cash flow for 2018, respectively in millions
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Cruise's operating cash flow would be calculated as:
= EBIT + Depreciation + Taxes
= 203 + 74 - 50
= $227 million
Cruise's investment in operating capital will b calculated as:
= 71 - 11 - 6.1
= $53.9 million
Cruise's free cash flow for 2018 will be calculated as:
= operating cash flow - investment in Operating capital
= 227 - 53.9
= $173.1 million
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Operating cash flow = EBIT - taxes + depreciation expense
= $203 million -$50 million + $74 million
= $227 million
The investment in operating capital is
= Gross fixed asset - decrease in current asset + increase in current liability
= $71 million - $11 million + $6.1 million
= $66.1 million
And, the free cash flow is
= Operating cash flow - investment in operating capital
= $227 million - $66.1 million
= $160.90 million

Capital balance: $100,000
Bonus share: 10% × $10000 = ($10,000)
New capital balance: $90,000
The answer is $216,000 , $144,000 , $90,000
Suppose two projects have the same expected business value. Project A has a very high estimated business value along with a high probability of failure. Project B has a much lower estimated business value along with a low probability of failure. If you could do only one of the projects, which one would you choose and under what conditions
Answer:
Project B has a much lower estimated business value along with a low probability of failure.
Explanation:
In order to do only one type of project that has the same business values. I would choose a project that has a low probability of failure. Though it has a low value but in the long run will lead to economic profit and shareholders value. For selection, we need to find out the benefits gained by the project.If a person could choose only one project he must select Project B as it has a much lower estimated business value along with a low probability of failure.
What are the selection criteria for the project?Project B would be a better option to choose as it is giving less risk to business as compared to Project B in terms of failure. However, the value of Project B is less but it has the potential to generate economic profits in the long run.
Therefore, by evaluating the cost and benefit from two projects shareholder's interest would be intact more through Project B.
