Answer:
the labor efficiency variance for the month is $23,256 Favorable.
Explanation:
Labor efficiency variance = (Aq × SP) - (Sq × Sp)
= (7,600 × $13.60) - ((950 × 9.8) × $13.60)
= (7,600 × $13.60) - (9.310 × $13.60)
= $23,256 Favorable
Computing absorption cost per unit and variable cost per unit Adamson, Inc. has the following cost data for Product X:
Direct materials $41 per unit
Direct labor 57 per unit
Variable manufacturing overhead 7 per unit
Fixed manufacturing overhead 20,000 per year
Required:
Calculate the unit product cost using absorption costing and variable costing when production is 2,000 units, 2,500 units, and 5,000 units.
Answer:
unit cost for 2,000 units=$115
unit cost for 2,500 units =$113
unit cost for 5,000 units= $109
Explanation:
Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e.g machine hours, labour hours e.t.c. Units are valued using full cost per unit
Full cost per unit= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + Variable production overhead + Fixed production overhead
Fixed production overhead = Budgeted overhead/Budgeted production units
unit cost for 2,000 units
unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/2000) = $115
unit cost for 2,500 units
unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/2,500)= $113
unit cost for 5,000 units
unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/5,000) = $109
unit cost for 2,000 units=$115
unit cost for 2,500 units =$113
unit cost for 5,000 units= $109
uppose a Starbucks tall latte cost $4.00 in the United States, 5.00 euros in the euro area and $2.50 Australian dollars in Australia. Nominal exchange rates are .80 euros per dollar and 1.4 Australian dollars per U.S. dollar. Where does purchasing power parity hold
Answer: Nether Australia or Europe
Explanation:
Purchasing power parity is a notion that states that prices of the same or similar goods should have the same price across the world after adjusting for exchange rate differences.
If the price of a tall latte in the U.S. is $4,00, it should be the same price in Europe and Australia after exchange rate adjustments.
$4.00 in Euro is: $4.00 in Australian dollars is:
= 4 * 0.8 = 4 * 1.4
= €3.20 = $5.60
Purchasing power parity does not hold in wither countries because the prices of the lattes are not equal to the $4.00 in the U.S. after adjustments for exchange rates.
For the following investments, identify whether they are: Trading debt securities. Available-for-sale debt securities. Held-to-maturity debt securities. None of the above. Each case is independent of the other.
(a) A bond that will mature in 4 years was bought 1 month ago when the price dropped. As soon as the value increases, which is expected next month, it will be sold.
(b) 10% of the outstanding stock of Farm-Co was purchased. The company is planning on eventually getting a total of 30% of its outstanding stock.
(c) Bonds were purchased in December of this year. The bonds are expected to be sold in January of next year.
(d) Bonds that will mature in 5 years are purchased. The company would like to hold them until they mature, but money has been tight recently and they may need to be sold.
(e) Preferred stock was purchased for its constant dividend. The company is planning to hold the preferred stock for a long time.
(f) A bond that matures in 10 years was purchased. The company is investing money set aside for an expansion project planned 10 years from now.
Answer:
(a) A bond that will mature in 4 years was bought 1 month ago when the price dropped. As soon as the value increases, which is expected next month, it will be sold. - Trading Debt Securities
Trading debt securities such as these are held only for a short time before they are sold with the goal being short term profit.
(b) 10% of the outstanding stock of Farm-Co was purchased. The company is planning on eventually getting a total of 30% of its outstanding stock. - None of the Above
This is an Equity Investment.
(c) Bonds were purchased in December of this year. The bonds are expected to be sold in January of next year. - Trading Debt Securities
Like the bond in (a), this is being held for a short while only and then it will be sold so it is a Trading debt security.
(d) Bonds that will mature in 5 years are purchased. The company would like to hold them until they mature, but money has been tight recently and they may need to be sold. - Available-for-sale debt securities
Available for sale debt securities are to be sold before maturity and therefore have no certain selling time. The bond above has no selling time as it might be sold at any point so it is an Available-for-sale debt security.
(e) Preferred stock was purchased for its constant dividend. The company is planning to hold the preferred stock for a long time. - None of the above.
This is an Equity investment as well.
(f) A bond that matures in 10 years was purchased. The company is investing money set aside for an expansion project planned 10 years from now. - Held-to-maturity debt securities.
Held to Maturity bonds are bought with no intention of selling and the company hopes to hold them till they mature like this bond which will be held for 10 years.

. A stock is expected to pay a dividend of $0.75 at the end of the year. The required rate of return is rs = 10.5%, and the expected constant growth rate is g = 6.4%. What is the stock's current price
Answer:
The answer is $18.29
Explanation:
We have many formulas to arriving at the stock price but here we use Gordon growth model.
Formula for getting stock price is:
D1/r - g
Where:
D1 - is the next year dividend or expected dividend to be paid next.
r is the rate of return
g is the growth rate
$0.75/0.105 - 0.064
$0.75/0.041
$18.29.
Therefore, the stock's current price is $18.29

Answer:
Pattison Corporation
Activity Variance for "Travel expenses" for May would have been closest to:
$1,500 Favorable
Explanation:
Data and Calculations:
Fixed Element Variable Element per
per Month Customer Served
Revenue $5,500
Employee salaries
and wages $46,300 $1,000
Travel expenses $ 500
Other expenses $32,500
The Travel Expenses Activity Variance = Actual cost minus budgeted cost
= $8,500 - $10,000
= $1,500 Favorable
Actual travel expenses = ($500 x 17)
= $8,500
Budgeted travel expenses = ($500 x 20)
= $10,000
Pattison Corporation's activity variance for Travel Expenses for the month of May is the difference between the actual travel expenses and the budgeted travel expenses. The budgeted expenses are based on budgeted number of customers served in May while the actual expenses are based on actual number of customers served in May.

The firm has a target debt-equity (D/E) ratio of 0.76. Its cost of equity is 15.3 percent, and its pretax cost of debt is 9 percent. What is the WACC given a tax rate of 21 percent
Answer:
11.76%
Explanation:
The computation of the Weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is shown below:
= Weightage of debt × cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)+ (Weightage of common stock) × (cost of common stock)
= (0.76 ÷ 1.76 × 9%) × ( 1 - 21%) + (1 ÷ 1.76 × 15.3%)
= 3.07% + 8.69%
= 11.76%
Hence, the WACC is 11.76%
We simply multiplied the weight of capital stucture with its cost

Group of answer choices.
A. contract for services to be performed in the future.
B. contract involving personal skill.
C. services contract.
D. employment contract.
Answer:
B. contract involving personal skill.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Edna a leading brain surgeon in the United States enters into a contract to perform a complicated brain surgery on Ben. However, Edna is very busy and wants to assign this contract to a less experienced surgeon, Charles which would be his first operation of this type. Hence, Ben can object to this assignment (brain surgery) and prevent it because the contract between Ben and Edna is a contract involving personal skill.
Apparently, it can be deduced that Edna has competent and professional skills which is the reason why she's the leading brain surgeon in USA. Ben having this information at his disposal chose to go into the contract with Edna, who is an experienced brain surgeon. Therefore, the contract between the two (2) parties is solely based on Edna's personal skill.

On June 13, the board of directors of Siewert Inc. declared a 2-for-1 stock split on its 120 million, $1 par, common shares, to be distributed on July 1. The market price of Siewert common stock was $35 on June 13. Prepare a journal entry that summarizes the declaration and distribution of the stock split if it is not to be effected in the form of a stock dividend. What is the par per share after the split
Answer:
Siewert Inc.
Journal Entry:
Memo: This is note that the stock has been split 2-for-1 and the number of common shares increased to 240 (120 x 2) million.
No journal entry is required for a split of 2-for-1 shares. What is required is a memo that indicates that the shares have been split.
The par value is now $0.50 ($1/2)
Explanation:
When the directors of Siewert Inc. declare a stock split, it does not require any journal entry. Instead, a memo is required to describe the declaration and the new number of shares that are now authorized if this has increased, and outstanding. The 2-for-1 split means that stockholders who held 1 share before will now be entitled to 2 shares. This doubling of the number of shares will affect the par value of the shares, causing it to divide by 2. For example, Siewert Inc.'s par value of common shares was $1 before the declaration of the split. After the split, the par value will change to $0.50 or half. This split will also affect the market price of the shares as investors are likely to reduce the current market price to about half of its prevailing price.
The capitalized cost of $10,000 every 5 years forever, starting now at an interest rate of 10% per year, is closest to
Answer:
$15,000Explanation:
Capitalized cost = Initial cost + Interest.
Initial cost = Principal - $10,000
Interest = Principal * Rate * Time/100
Given Principal = $10,000
Rate (in %) = 10%
Time (in years) = 5 years
Interest = 10,000*10*5/100
Interest = $5000
Capitalized cost = Initial cost + Interest.
Capitalized cost = $10,000+$5,000
Capitalized cost = $15,000
Hence the capitalized cost of $10,000 every 5 years forever, starting now at an interest rate of 10% per year, is closest to $15,000
he carrying value of Blossom’s net identifiable assets, including the goodwill, at year-end is $855,000. Prepare Cullumber’s journal entry, if necessary, to record impairment of goodwill.
Answer:
Goodwill Impairment (Debit)
Goodwill (Credit)
Explanation:
In case goodwill is impaired, then the entry to record this impairment will be Goodwill Impairment Debit and Goodwill Credit.
By crediting the Goodwill, the account will be reduced. This shows that the business is currently worth less than is accounted for. The Goodwill account is reduced to identify this difference.
The Impairment loss is an expense and must be reflected in the income statement. Therefore, while we reduce Goodwill amount from balance sheet. We record the expense on the income statement, which would mean that the current year profit amount will be reduced.
The following information is available for Blossom Corporation for 2020.1. Depreciation reported on the tax return exceeded depreciation reported on the income statement by $124,000. This difference will reverse in equal amounts of $31,000 over the years 2021–2024.2. Interest received on municipal bonds was $9,300.3. Rent collected in advance on January 1, 2020, totaled $64,200 for a 3-year period. Of this amount, $42,800 was reported as unearned at December 31, 2020, for book purposes.4. The tax rates are 40% for 2020 and 35% for 2021 and subsequent years.5. Income taxes of $297,000 are due per the tax return for 2020.6. No deferred taxes existed at the beginning of 2020.Requried:Prepare the income tax expense section of the income statement for 2020.
Answer:
first we must determine taxable income = due income taxes / tax rate = $297,000 / 0.4 = $742,500
interest received on municipal bonds $9,300
unearned rent revenue = $42,800
deferred tax asset = $42,800 x 0.4 = $17,120
total pretax financial income = $742,500 + $9,300 + $124,000 - $42,800 = $833,000
deferred tax liability = $124,000 x .4 = $49,600
Income tax expense section
For the year ended December 31, 2020
Total pretax financial income $833,000
Income tax expense:
Income taxes $297,000Deferred tax liability $49,600Deferred tax asset -$17,120 -$329,480Net income $503,520

Explanation:
Margaret’s car loan statement said that she would pay $7,683.20 in interest for a 5-year loan at an interest rate of 9.8%. Assuming this is an example of simple interest, how much did Margaret borrow to buy the car?
Answer: $15680
Explanation:
Principal = Unknown
Time = 5 years
Rate = 9.8%
Simple interest = $7683.20
Simple interest= PRT/100
7683.20 = (P × 9.8 × 5)/100
7683.20 = 49P/100
Cross multiply
768320 = 49P
P = 768320/49
Principal = $15680
Margaret borrowed $15680 to buy the car.

Which of the following approaches should the Fed use if it experiences large lags and mistakes in monetary policy?
a. Discretionary policy
b. An eclectic approach
c. Fixed rules
d. Fiscal policy
Answer:
C. Fixed rules.
Explanation:
This is simply a policy that is seen to be a monetary or in some cases fiscal; they are said to be automated in most of its cases and are based on the criteria that are predetermined.
In most cases, these policies are seen to be binding and also categorically constrain officials' policy choices based on certain predetermined criteria to direct them toward serving the public interest.
Many cases by policymakers made this policy to be put in place because most of them generally cannot bind their own future choices, also fixed policy rules usually have to be enforced by some kind of higher authority in order to be binding etc.

You are considering buying a perpetuity contract from your insurance company that will pay you $500 annually where the payment will grow by 3% each year. Using a discount rate of 9%, the most you should be willing to pay for this contract is closest to:
Answer:
Maximum Amount Payable = $8333.33
Explanation:
Perpetual Annuity Payment = $500
Growth Rate = 3%
Discount Rate = 9%
Maximum Amount Payable = Present Value of Perpetual Annuity
Present Value of Perpetual Annuity = Perpetual Annuity Payment / (Discount rate - Growth rate)
Maximum Amount Payable = $500 / (0.09 - 0.03)
Maximum Amount Payable = $500 / 0.06
Maximum Amount Payable = $8333.33
Suppose we have the following information for 2008: Potential output: $17 trillion Actual output: $16 trillion Actual Deficit: $ 500 billion Tax Rate: 15% What is the structural deficit in 2008
Answer:
The structural budget in 2008 is $350 billion
Explanation:
Actual deficit = Government spending - Tax Revenue Collection
i.e Actual deficit = G-T
T = (Tax rate) (Actual output)
$500 billion = G - (0.15)($16 trillion)
$500 billion = G - 2400 billion
G = $500 billion + 2400 billion
G = $2900 billion
Thus, Government spending is $2900 billion
Structural deficit = G - T'
T' = (Tax rate)(Potential output)
T' = (0.15)(17000 billion)
T' = $2550 billion
Structural deficit = G - T'
Structural deficit = $2900 billion - $2550 billion
Structural deficit = $350 billion
Thus, the structural budget in 2008 is $350 billion
