Answer and Explanation:
a) The amount of initially rent equal to the requirement per contact i.e $5,000
b) Now the Profit is
= Future contract × (rise future prices - initial future prices)
= 100 × ($1,255 - $1,250)
= $500
And, the percentage return is
= Profit ÷ requirement
= $500 ÷ $5,000
= 10.00%
c) Now the loss is
= Future contract × (decline future prices - initial future prices)
= 100 × ($1,248 - $1,250)
= -$200
And, the loss percentage return is
= Loss ÷ requirement
= -$200 ÷ $5,000
= -4.00%
d) Now of the price of future price falls so the balance in account left is
= Requirement - future contract × (future price of gold - declined future prices)
= $5,000 - 100 × ($1,250 - $1,238)
= $3,800
Since as we can see the balance is more than the maintenance margin so there is nothing to be done
e) Now if the future price continues to falls to $1,210 so
Balance in the account is
= Requirement - future contract × (future price of gold - declined future prices)
= 5000 - 100 × ($1,250 - $1,210)
= $1,000
As we can see that the balance of the margin account is less than the maintenance margin so the initial margin i.e $5,000 is to be deposited
So, the amount deposited is
= $5,000 - $1,000
= $4,000
f)Now for closing the position can be done by entering into the inverse transaction i.e by selling off one futures contract.
On December 31, the end of the first year of operations, Frankenreiter Inc. manufactured 25,600 units and sold 24,000 units.

Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 25,600 units
Units sold= 24,000
Variable cost of goods sold= $5,376,000
Fixed manufacturing costs= $1,664,000
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.
The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).
Variable costing method:
Unitary product cost= 5,376,000/25,600= $210
Absorption costing:
Unitary product cost= 210 + (1,664,000/25,600)= $275
A truck was purchased 3 years ago for $50,000 and can be sold today for $25,000. The operating costs are $9,000 per year, and it is expected to last 4 more years with a $5,000 salvage value. A new truck, which will perform that same service, can be purchased for $55,000, and it will have a life of 10 years with operating costs of $28,000 per year and a $10,000 salvage value. What is the value that should be used as P for the presently owned vehicle in a replacement study
Answer:
P = $25,000
Explanation:
Cost price of truck = $50,000
Present value = $25,000
Operating costs = $9,000 per year
Salvage value = $4,000
Find remaining amount for old truck:
Amount remaining = $50,000 - $25,000 = $25,000
Total amount, since it has a salvage value of $5,000:
Total = $25,00 + $5,000 = $30,000
For new truck:
Cost price = $55,000
Operating costs = $28,000 per year
Salvage value = $10,000
To find the value that should be used as P for the presently owned vehicle in a replacement study:
P = Cost of new truck - Total amount remaining from old truck
P = $55,000 - $30,000
P = $25,000
Therefore, the value that should be used as P for the presently owned vehicle in a replacement study is $25,000
Use the 2012 segment information provided by BMW and Volkswagen to an- swer the following questions: a. Which company is more multinational? b. Which company is more internationally diversified? c. In which region(s) of the world did each company experience the greatest growth from 2011–2012? the greatest decline?
Answer with its Explanation:
a). The total revenue of Volkswagen and BMW in the 2012 segment given shows that the revenue is $192,676 and BMW which is $76,848. As the revenue of Volkswagen is more than the BMW hence Volkswagen is more multinational.
b). The regional sales section shows that the Volkswagen is more internationally recognized as per the regional sales which is substantially higher than the regional sales of BMW. So its crystal clear that Volkswagen is the one which more internationally diversified.
c). The 2012 segment information shows that the BMW greatest growth was in China then in USA and then greatest growth was in Rest of the Europe and the greatest decline was in Rest of the America.
For Volkswagen, the greatest growth was in North America then in Asia and then in South America. The greatest decline wasn't seen in the segment information but lowest increase was seen in Germany and then in the European countries.
Consider a business cycle theory that combines the classical âIS-LM model with the assumption that temporary changes in government purchases are the main source of cyclical fluctuations. According to thisâ theory, what happens after a temporary increase in government purchases to each of the followingâ variables?
a. Employment
b. The real wage
c. Average labor productivity
d. Investment
e. The price level
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
The IS-LM model, simply is an acronym which represents "investment-savings" and the "liquidity preference of money supply". The model indicates the interaction between market for economic goods and the loanable funds market which is also called the money market.
The variables are explained below:
a. Employment: A rise in the spending expenditure will result into an increase in the current or future taxes which will have an effect on the workers by making them poorer and therefore making them offer their services to the labor market. This will lead to a rise in labor supply.
b. The real wage: Due to the increase in labor supply, the real wage will reduce because the supply of labor will be more than the demand.
c. Average labor productivity: The marginal productivity of labor or production function is not influenced by fiscal policy changes.
d. Investment: There will be a leftward upward shift of the LM curve. Due to increase in price of goods and services, and the fall in real money supply, the interest rate will rise therefore making investment to reduce.
e. The price level: Demand for output is more than the full employment level of output. This will bring about increase in price.
On January 1, ABC sold $30,000 in products to a customer on account. Then on January 10, ABC collected the cash on that account. What is the impact on ABC's accounting equation from the collection of cash on January 10?
Answer:
Collection of Cash on January 10
The Impact on ABC's accounting equation:
The Assets (Cash) will increase by $30,000 and another type of Assets (Accounts Receivable) will decrease by $30,000.
The collection of cash on January 10 does not affect the other side of the accounting equation.
Explanation:
The accounting equation shows that for every transaction, the Assets will be equal to the Liabilities + Owners' Equity. The explanation is that the financial resources which an entity owns actually belong to either creditors or equity owners in the form of financial obligations (liabilities) or contributed capital plus some parts of the net income over the years which the entity has reinvested in its business.
The accounting equation is the fulcrum of the double-entry accounting system. On a company's balance sheet, the accounting equation shows that assets equal the sum of the company's liabilities and shareholders' equity.
Sue and Andrew form SA general partnership. Each person receives an equal interest in the newly created partnership. Sue contributes $18,000 of cash and land with an FMV of $63,000. Her basis in the land is $28,000. Andrew contributes equipment with an FMV of $20,000 and a building with an FMV of $41,000. His basis in the equipment is $16,000, and his basis in the building is $28,000. How much gain must the SA general partnership recognize on the transfer of these assets from Sue and Andrew
Answer:
$0
Explanation:
Given that
Sue contributed amount = $18,000
FMV of land = $63,000
Basis in land = $28,000
Andrew contributed amount = $20,000
FMV of Building = $41,000
Basis in equipment = $16,000
Basis in building = $28,000
Based on the above information, the gain that would be recognized is $0 as Partnerships recognize no gain on receiving contributed valued property. At the disposal of the asset, the constructed-in benefit or constructed-in loss will be revealed. For this, the partnership basis property i.e being acquired should be based on a carryover basis.
Lease A does not contain a bargain purchase option, but the lease term is equal to 90% of the estimated economic life of the leased property. Lease B does not transfer ownership of the property to the lessee by the end of the lease term, but the lease term is equal to 75% of the estimated economic life of the leased property. Based on this information alone, how should the lessee classify these leases
Answer: Lease A Capital lease
Lease B Capital lease
Explanation:
A Capital lease is known as a lease agreement in which the lessor ( someone giving out the property) agrees to transfer the ownership rights to the lessee ( someone acquiring or needing the services of the property). After completion of the agreed lease period.
In a capital lease, the lessor is usually mandated to transfer the ownership rights of the asset to the lessee upon the end of the agreed lease term between both parties.

Suppose the following selected condensed data are taken from a recent balance sheet of Bob Evans Farms (in millions of dollars).
Cash $ 31.9
Accounts receivable 21.0
Inventory 28.1
Other current assets 23.0
Total current assets $104.0
Total current liabilities $200.0
Answer:
The answer is
1. -$96 million
2. 0.52:1
Explanation:
1. Working capital = total current assets - total current liabilities
Current assets:
Cash. $ 31.9 million
Accounts receivable $21.0 million
Inventory $28.1 million
Other current assets. $23.0 milllion
Total current assets $104.0 million
And current liabilities is$200.0 million
Therefore, working capital is:
$104 - $200
= -$96 million
2. Current ratio = current assets/current liabilities
$104 million / 200 miliion
=0.52:1
Nuzum Corporation has two divisions: Division M and Division N. Data from the most recent month appear below: Total Company Division M Division N Sales $557,000 $254,000 $303,000 Variable expenses 144,910 81,280 63,630 Contribution margin 412,090 172,720 239,370 Traceable fixed expenses 273,000 128,000 145,000 Segment margin 139,090 44,720 94,370 Common fixed expenses 94,690 43,180 51,510 Net operating income $ 44,400 $ 1,540 $ 42,860 Management has allocated common fixed expenses to the Divisions based on their sales. The break-even in sales dollars for Division N is closest to:
Answer:
$ 183,544.30 = $ 183,544
Explanation:
Nuzum Corporation
Total Division M Division N
Sales $557,000 $254,000 $303,000
Variable expenses 144,910 81,280 63,630
Contribution margin 412,090 172,720 239,370
Traceable fixed expenses 273,000 128,000 145,000
Segment margin 139,090 44,720 94,370
Common fixed expenses 94,690 43,180 51,510
Net operating income $ 44,400 $ 1,540 $ 42,860
First we find the Segment CM ratio by the following formula:
Segment Contribution Margin Ratio= Segment Sales- Segment Variable Expenses/ Sales
Segment Contribution Margin Ratio= 303,000 -63630/303000
Segment Contribution Margin Ratio= 239370/303000=0.79
Then we find the break even sales in dollars.
Break Even Sales in Dollars= Traceable Fixed Expense/ Segment Contribution Margin Ratio
Break Even Sales in Dollars =145,000/0.79= $ 183,544.303
An uninterruptible power system used in a small production facility at Acme Manufacturing has a basis of $56,000 and is expected to have $5750 salvage value after 125,000 hours of use. Calculate the depreciation rate per hour of use and the book value after 77,000 hours of operation.
Answer:
The depreciation rate per hour is 0.402
The Book value is $25,046
Explanation:
In order to calculate the depreciation rate per hour of use we would have to calculate the following:
depreciation rate per hour=(basis- salvage value)/hours of use
depreciation rate per hour=($56,000-$5750)/125,000
depreciation rate per hour=0.402
To calculate the book value we would have to make the following calculation:
Book value=basis-(depreciation rate per hour*77,000 hours of operation)
Book value=$56,000-(0.402*77,000)
Book value=$25,046

The Viper retires a $49.4 million bond issue when the carrying value of the bonds is $53.1 million, but the market value of the bonds is $46.5 million. The entry to record the retirement will include: Multiple Choice A debit of $6.6 million to a loss account. No gain or loss on retirement. A credit to cash for $53.1 million. A credit of $6.6 million to a gain account.
Answer:
A debit of $6.6 million to a loss account
Explanation:
The entry to record the retirement Viper retires
Carrying value of the bonds $53.1 million
Less the market value of the bonds is $46.5 million
=$6.6 million loss
The answer is a debit of $6.6 million to a loss account because the carrying value of the bonds was $53.1 million while the market value of the bonds was $46.5 million which means we have to deduct the carrying value from the market value which gave us a loss of $6.6 million .
Assume that the cost of money is 10% per year. The initial cost of a small personal aircraft is $35,000, the annual repair and maintenance cost is $20,000 and the salvage value is $10,000. The aircraft is kept for 2 years. The present worth of the aircraft is :__________
Answer:
The present worth of aircraft = $29137.82
Explanation:
Given the cost of money (r ) = 10%
The initial cost of small aircraft = $35000
Annual repair and maintenance costs (A) = $20000
Salvage valaue = $10000
Now calculate the present value of aircraft by adding the initial cost of annual maintenance and salvage value and subtracting the initial cost.
[tex]Present worth = initial cost + \frac{A[1-(1+r)^{-n}]}{r} - \frac{Salvage \ value}{(1 + r)^{n}} \\= 35000 + \frac{20000 [1 – (1+ 0.01)^{-2}]}{0.01} - \frac{10000}{(1 + 0.01)^{2}} \\= $29137.82[/tex]
Horgen Corporation manufactures two products: Product M68B and Product H27T. The company is considering implementing an activity-based costing (ABC) system that allocates its manufacturing overhead to four cost pools. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Products M68B and H27T.
Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Total Cost Total Activity
Machining Machine-hours $299,000 13,000 MHs
Machine setups Number of setups $240,000 400 setups
Product design Number of products $80,000 2 products
Order size Direct labor-hours $290,000 10,000 DLHs
Activity Measure Product Product
Machine-hours M68B H27T
Number of setups 6,000 7,000
Number of products 250 150
Direct labor-hours 4,000 6,000
Using the ABC system, how much total manufacturing overhead cost would be assigned to Product H27T?
a. $291,000
b. $174,000
c. S465,000
d. $454,500
Answer: $465,000
Explanation:
The activity-based costing (ABC) is used to know the total cost of activities that is vital to make a product. In ABC system, for every activity which goes into production, a cost will be assigned.
Based on the figures in the question, the following can be deduced:
Machining:
= 299,000/13,000 × 7,000
= 23 × 7,000
= $161,000
Machine set up:
= 240,000/400 × 150
= 600 × 150
= $90000
Product design:
= 80,000/2
= $40,000
Order size:
= 290,000/10,000 × 6,000
= 29 × 6,000
= $174,000
Total = $161,000 + $90,000 + $40,000 + $174,000
= $465,000
The total manufacturing overhead cost that would be assigned to Product H27T is $465,000.
The total manufacturing overhead cost that would be assigned to Product H27T is $465,000.
Product H27T Machining = $299,000/13,000 × 7,000
Product H27T Machining = $23 × 7,000
Product H27T Machining = $161,000
Product H27T Machine set up = $240,000/400 × 150
Product H27T Machine set up = $600 × 150
Product H27T Machine set up = $90000
Product H27T Product design = $80,000/2
Product H27T Product design = $40,000
Product H27T Order size = $290,000/10,000 × 6,000
Product H27T Order size = $29 × 6,000
Product H27T Order size = $174,000
Total manufacturing overhead cost = $161,000 + $90,000 + $40,000 + $174,000
Total manufacturing overhead cost = $465,000
In conclusion, the total manufacturing overhead cost that would be assigned to Product H27T is $465,000.

On January 1 of the current year, Barton Corporation issued 11% bonds with a face value of $105,000. The bonds are sold for $99,750. The bonds pay interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31, and the maturity date is December 31, five years from now. Barton records straight-line amortization of the bond discount. The bond interest expense for the year ended December 31 is a.$13,125 b.$12,600 c.$5,775 d.$525
Answer:
b.$12,600
The bond effective interest expense for the year ended December 31 is $12,600
Explanation:
We need to get the computation of the discount value of the bond using the straight-line method first and Interest Earned
Discount Value= (Face Value - Sales Value) / Years
D.V= $105,000 - $99,750 / 5
D.V= $1,050 Per year
Interest Expenses= Face Value * Bond issued
=$105,000 * 11%
=$11,550
We need to Compute the interest expense of the bond as well
Bond Interest Expenses = Interest Expense + Discount Value
=$11,550 + $1,050
=$12,600
The bond effective interest expense for the year ended December 31 is $12,600

Volume at the high point: ____
Variable cost per unit ____
Total variable costs at the high point ____
Total fixed costs ____
Total cost at the low point ____
Variable costs at the low point
Volume at the low point ____
Variable cost per unit
Total variable costs at the low point
Total fixed costs ____
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $240
Fixed costs= $1,910
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
June 9 $5,200
July 18 $6,650
August 12 4,850
September 15 5,750
October 21 6,650
November 24 6,950
December 6 3,350
To calculate the variable and fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (6,950 - 3,350) / (21 - 6)
Variable cost per unit= $240
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 6,950 - (240*21)
Fixed costs= $1,910
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 3,350 - (240*6)
Fixed costs= $1,910

Kahn of Portland Oregon sent a letter to Lischner of Los Angeles inquiring whether Kushner’s property in Humboldt County was for sale. Lischner replied that he was interested in selling and asked Kahn about the fair market value. Kahn wrote that it was difficult to make an offer without a legal description of the property and asked for it and the annual taxes. These were provided by Lischner. Subsequently, Kahn wrote, "I hesitate to place a value on someone else’s property, but I can tell you that I have been offered a similar track of property for $2,000. Since your property is closer to mine, I would prefer to buy yours, and offer a four-year term contract at a total price of $2,500." The two parties ultimately agreed on a cash price of $2,500. Shortly after contracting with Kahn, Lischner went to Humboldt county and readily learned, upon the most superficial inquiry that the property was worth more than $2,500. He sold the property to Pacoima Lumber Sales, Inc. for $7,500. Thereupon, Kahn sued Lischner for $5,000. Lischner responded that he had been induced to contract by a fraudulent misrepresentation as to the value of the property by Kahn and therefore could rescind their contract of sale.What are the elements that must be present for fraudulent misrepresentation?

Agent Jennings makes a presentation on Medicare advertised as an educational event. Agent Jennings distributes materials that are solely educational in nature. However, she gives a brief presentation that mentions plan-specific premiums. Is this a prohibited activity at an event that has been advertised as educational?

Yes it is
Explanation:
Yes. When an event has been advertised as educational, going ahead to discuss plan-specific premiums is impermissible
The event for which Mary made the presentation is clearly an educational event so she should have concentrated fully on only educational contents that pertains to the event.
