Explanation:
a. What are the book value and market value of the firm?
The book value will be the amount of money that Alchemy invested which will be $1,500,000.
Market value = Value of patent + Value of production plant
= $75 million + $1,500,000
= $76.5 million
b. If there are 1 million shares of stock in the new corporation, what would be the price per share and the book value per share?
Price per share = Market value / Number of shares
= $76.5 million / 1 million
= $76.5 per share
Book value per share = Book value / Number of shares
= $1.5million/ 1 million
= $1.5 per share
A company bought machinery on January 1, 2016, for $200,000. On January 1, 2018, the machinery had a book value of $100,000. It is estimated that the machine will generate future cash flows of $70,000 and its current fair value is $60,000. How much impairment loss should be recorded
Answer:
The impairment loss that should be recorded is:
= $40,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of machinery on January 1, 2016 = $200,000
Book value of machinery on January 1, 2018 = $100,000
Estimated future cash flows from the machinery = $70,000
Estimated fair value of the machinery = $60,000
Impairment loss to be recorded = Book value Minus Fair Market Value
= $40,000 ($100,000 - $60,000)
b) The impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the asset's carrying cost of $100,000 and the lower market value of $60,000 instead of $70,000.

Complex buying behavior.Dissonance-reducing buying behavior.Habitual buying behavior.Variety seeking behavior.The Tuck Shop began the current month with inventory costing $10,000, then purchased inventory at a cost of $35,000. The perpetual inventory system indicates that inventory costing $30,000 was sold during the month for $40,000. If an inventory count shows that inventory costing $14,500 is actually on hand at month-end, what amount of shrinkage occurred during the month
Answer:
$500 shrinkage
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of shrinkage occurred during the month
Using this formula
Shrinkage=Ending inventory-Actual count
Let plug in the formula
Ending inventory=$10,000 + $35,000 - $30,000 Ending inventory= $15,000
Shrinkage=$15,000 - $14,500
Shrinkage= $500
Therefore the amount of shrinkage occurred during the month is $500
Ripka Company has 20,000 units in inventory that had a production cost of $4 per unit. These units cannot be sold through normal channels due to a significant technology change. These units could be reworked at a total cost of $30,000 and sold for $35,000. Another alternative is to sell the units to a junk dealer for $10,500. The relevant cost for Ripka to consider in making its decision is Select one: a. $110,000 for reworking the units b. $30,000 for reworking the units c. $80,000 of original product costs d. $35,000 for selling the units to the junk dealer
Answer:
Ripka Company
The relevant cost for Ripka to consider in making its decision is:
b. $30,000 for reworking the units
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Inventory = 20,000 units
Production cost already incurred = $4 per unit
Total production cost = $80,000 (20,000 * $4)
Total Cost of Reworking the units = $30,000
Sales revenue after rework = $35,000
Alternative sales revenue without reworking = $10,500
b) Relevant cost is the avoidable cost. The cost that can be avoided in this instance is the cost of reworking the units, amounting to $30,000.

For a project being considered by a city, the following cost data is available. (a) Determine both the modified and conventional B/C ratios and offer a recommendation, and (b) if you are concerned because the data is not capturing the effects of Estimated annual disbenefits, how large would these have to be in order for you to change your recommendation (if at all) using the conventional B/C ratio?
Initial cost = $10,000,000
O & M cost / year = $450,000
Estimated annual benefits = $850,000
Life = 25 Years
Salvage value = $1 million
MARR = 6%
Solution :
Given :
Initial cost = $10,000,000
Salvage, S = $1,000,000
O and M Cost/year = AOM = $450,000
Benefit per year, AWB = $ 850,000
Equivalent initial cost per year = C
Equivalent salvage per year = S x (A/F, 0.06, 25) = 1,000,000 x (A/F, 0.06, 25)
Let us calculate the interest factors,
[tex]$(A/P,i,n)=\frac{i}{1-\frac{1}{(1+i)^n}}$[/tex]
[tex]$(A/P,0.06,25)=\frac{0.06}{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.06)^{25}}}=0.078226718$[/tex]
[tex]$(A/P,i,n)= \frac{i}{(1+i)^n-1}[/tex]
[tex]$(A/P,0.06, 25)= \frac{0.06}{(1+0.06)^{25}-1} = 0.018226718[/tex]
The equivalent initial cost per year = AWC = 10000000 x 0.078226718 = $ 782267.18
Equivalent salvage per year, AWS = 1,000,000 x 0.018226718 = $ 18226.72
Conventional B-C ratio = AWB/(AWC-AWS+AOM)
= 850000/(782267.18-18226.72+450000)
= 0.7001
Modified B-C ratio = (AWB-AOM)/(AWC-AWS)
= (850000-450000)/(782267.18-18226.72)
= 0.5235
In this case. both the conventional B-C ratio and modified B-C ratio are less than 1, the project is not acceptable.
Braun Company has one service department and two operating (production) departments. Maintenance Department costs are allocated to the two operating departments based on square feet occupied. Listed below are the operating data for the current period: Department Direct Expenses Square Feet Maintenance $27,000 6,000 Milling 77,500 12,000 Assembly 106,400 18,000 The total cost of operating the Assembly Department for the current period is:_____.a. $91,800. b. $115,600. c. $105,400. d. $120,700. e. $130,900.
Answer:
$122,600
Explanation:
Maintenance department cost = $27,000
Assembly department cost = $106,400
Square feet occupied by Milling department = 12,000
Square feet occupied by Assembly department = 18,000
Total square feet occupied by two production departments = Square feet occupied by Milling department + Square feet occupied by Assembly department
= 12,000 + 18,000
= 30,000
Maintenance department cost allocated to Assembly department = Maintenance department cost * (Square feet occupied by Assembly department / Total square feet occupied by two production departments)
= 27,000 * (18,000/30,000)
= 27,000 * 0.6
= 16,200
The total cost of operating the Assembly department for the current period = Assembly department cost + Maintenance department cost allocated to Assembly department
= $106,400 + $16,200
= $122,600

Swifty Football Co. had a player contract with Watts that is recorded in its books at $8340000 on July 1, 2020. Blossom Football Co. had a player contract with Kurtz that is recorded in its books at $10700000 on July 1, 2020. On this date, Swifty traded Watts to Blossom for Kurtz and paid a cash difference of $1070000. The fair value of the Kurtz contract was $12600000 on the exchange date. The exchange had no commercial substance. After the exchange, the Kurtz contract should be recorded in Swifty's books at:_______.
Answer:
"$9,410,000" is the appropriate answer.
Explanation:
Given that,
Fair value,
= $12600000
Cash difference,
= $1070000
Books value before transaction,
= $8340000
Now,
The deferred gain will be:
= [tex](Fair \ value-Cash \ difference)-Books \ value \ before \ transaction[/tex]
= [tex](12600000 -1070000)-8340000[/tex]
= [tex]11530000 -8340000[/tex]
= [tex]3,190,000[/tex] ($)
hence,
The Kurtz contact value will be:
= Fair value - Deferred gain
= [tex]12600000-3190000[/tex]
= [tex]9,410,000[/tex] ($)
When a perfectly competitive firm decides to shut down, Group of answer choices marginal cost is above average variable cost.
Answer:
price is below average variable cost
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
firms should shutdown when price is less than average variable cost and exit when price is less than average total cost

Megan Corp. recognizes revenue over time to account for long-term contracts. At the date the contract is signed, the price is $600,000 and the expected costs to complete the contract are $400,000. The following information is available:
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Costs incurred to date $200,000 $350,000 $500,000 Estimated costs to complete 200,000 150,000 0 Progress billings 200,000 200,000 200.000
What is the amount of gross profit or loss that is recognized in year 2?
a. $30,000 loss
b. $40,000 gross profit
c. $150,000 loss
d. $200,000 gross profit
Answer:
a. $30,000 loss
Explanation:
Calculation to determine What is the amount of gross profit or loss that is recognized in year 2
First step is to calculate the Year 1 Cost to cost ratio using this formula
Year 1 Cost to cost ratio = 200,000 / ( Costs incurred + Cost to complete)
Let plug in the formula
Year 1 Cost to cost ratio= 200,000 / (200,000 + 200,000)
Year 1 Cost to cost ratio= 50%
Second step is to calculate the Gross profit or loss using this formula
Gross profit/Loss = 50% * ( Price - estimated cost to complete)
Let plug in the formula
Gross profit/Loss= 50% ( 600,000 - 400,000)
Gross profit/Loss= $100,000
Third step is to calculate the Year 2 Cost to cost ratio
Using this formula
Year 2 Cost to cost ratio = 350,000 / ( Costs incurred + Cost to complete)
Let plug in the formula
Year 2 Cost to cost ratio = 350,000 / (350,000 + 150,000)
Year 2 Cost to cost ratio = 350,000 / 500,000
Year 2 Cost to cost ratio = 70%
Now let calculate the gross profit or loss using this formula
Gross profit = 70% * ( Price - estimated cost to complete) - Previous Gross
Let plug in the formula
Gross profit= 70% ( 500,000 - 400,000) - 100,000
Gross profit= -$30,000
Gross Loss of $30,000 in Year 2

g Artis Sales has two store locations. Store A has fixed costs of $125,000 per month and a variable cost ratio of 60%. Store B has fixed costs of $200,000 per month and a variable cost ratio of 30%. At what sales volume would the two stores have equal profits or losses
Answer:
$250,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine At what sales volume would the two stores have equal profits or losses
First step is to determine the Difference in Fixed Cost
Fixed Cost - Store B $200,000
Fixed Cost - Store A $125,000
Different in Fixed Cost $75,000
($200,000-$125,000)
Second step is to determine the Change in Variable Cost Ratio
Variable Cost Ratio - Store A 60%
Variable Cost Ratio - Store B 30%
Change in Variable Cost Ratio 30%
(60%-30%)
Now let determine what the sales volume would the two stores have equal profits or losses
Using this formula
Sales volume = Fixed Cost/Change in Variable Cost Ratio
Let plug in the formula
Sales volume=$75,000/30%
Sales volume=$250,000
Therefore the sales volume in which the two stores would have equal profits or losses is $250,000
