At the beginning of 2021, Terra Lumber Company purchased a timber tract from Boise Cantor for $2,950,000. After the timber is cleared, the land will have a residual value of $670,000. Roads to enable logging operations were constructed and completed on March 30, 2021. The cost of the roads, which have no residual value and no alternative use after the tract is cleared, was $228,000. During 2021, Terra logged 570,000 of the estimated 5.7 million board feet of timber. Required: Calculate the 2021 depletion of the timber tract and depreciation of the logging roads assuming the units-of-production method is used for both assets
Answer:
depletion of the timber tract = $228,000 and
depreciation of the logging roads = $22,800
Explanation:
Timber tract
Depletion rate = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated units
= ($2,950,000 - $670,000) ÷ 5,700,000
= $0.40
Depletion expense = Units used x Depletion rate
= 570,000 x $0.40
= $228,000
Logging Roads
Depreciation rate = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated units
= ($228,000 - $0) ÷ 5,700,000
= $0.04
Depreciation expense = Units used x Depreciation rate
= 570,000 x $0.04
= $22,800
Diving Fiasco. Mike, who owns a dive shop in the United States, decides to take a group of his customers diving in U.S. waters. Mike is aware that sharks occasionally visit the area where the divers will be visiting. He is also aware that while stingrays are usually tame, they can become aggressive when fed. Mike does not reveal that information to the group of divers going with him. The divers go down into the water, and some have squid with which to feed the stingrays. During the dive, one of the stingrays becomes agitated and latches onto diver Susie's arm. Susie is so disconcerted that she drops her regulator (her breathing device) from her mouth and is in considerable difficulty. Another diver, Billy, encounters a shark, which snaps at him. While the shark does not actually bite Billy, the attack results in damage to his diving equipment. Mike, who is in charge of the dive, does nothing to help and leaves the other divers to return to the boat because the dive turned out to be more trouble than expected. Wendy, another diver on the trip, also returns to the boat without doing anything to help the divers in distress. Sam, on the other hand, goes to rescue the divers who are in distress. He manages to do so but in the process he pulls his back and requires medical care. All divers are very unhappy with Mike. Billy and Susie are annoyed that Mike did not come to their assistance. Which is true regarding Mike's duty to provide assistance to them during the dive?
A) Mike had no duty to provide any assistance to them.
B) Mike had a duty to come to their aid because he arranged the dive and was charging them.
C) Mike had a duty to come to their assistance only if he had specifically agreed to do so prior to the dive.
D) Mike had a duty to come to their assistance only if they were minors.
E) Mike had a duty to come to their assistance only if no one else did so.
Answer:
B) Mike had a duty to come to their aid because he arranged the dive and was charging them.
Explanation:
Mike organized the diving trip as part of his business activities. he is making money out of it, he is not doing it for free. He should haver warned the other divers about the risks involved and should also help them in case they are in trouble. When you provide a service, you are responsible for your customers' safety.

d. If money demand does not depend on the interest rate, the LM curve is vertical. True False e. If money demand does not depend on income, the LM curve is horizontal. True False f. If money demand is extremely sensitive to the interest rate, the LM curve is horizontal. True False g. Suppose the government wants to change the level of output. If the LM curve is horizontal, then fiscal policy is completely ineffective, whereas monetary policy is highly effective. monetary policy
Answer:
d. True
e. False
f. True
g. True
Explanation:
Interest rate movement is based on the fiscal policy of the government. If interest rates changes there is movement in the LM curve. This is because LM curve represents money market equilibrium of real interest rates. Monetary policy is completely ineffective if the interest rates does not change since the LM curve will be horizontal.

Joint products Alpha and Beta emerge from common processing that costs $200,000 and yields 9,000 units of Product Alpha and 5,600 units of Product Beta. Product Alpha can be sold for $150 per unit. Product Beta can be sold for $90 per unit. What amount of the joint costs will be assigned to Product Beta if joint costs are allocated on the basis of number of units produced
Answer:
the amount of the joint cost allocated is $76,712.32
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of the joint cost allocated is shown below"
= Processing cost × beta units ÷ (alpha units + beta units)
= $200,000 × 5,600 units ÷ (9,000 units + 5,600 units)
= $76,712.32
Hence, the amount of the joint cost allocated is $76,712.32
The aggregate demand curve is downward sloping because production costs decline as real GDP increases. is upward sloping because a higher price level is necessary to make production profitable as production costs rise. shows the amount of expenditures required to induce the production of each possible level of real GDP. shows the amount of real GDP that will be demanded at each possible price level. g
Answer: shows the amount of real GDP that will be demanded at each possible price level.
Explanation:
The Aggregate Demand curve shows how much of real GDP is demanded at each possible price level which means that is shows the effect of the price level on real GDP.
If the price level rises, real GDP will decrease and if the price level falls, real GDP rises. This is why the aggregate demand curve is downward sloping, to reflect this inverse relationship between real GDP and price level.

Members of 67 countries attended a conference on economic development hosted by an international organization based in Gent, Belgium. Attendees of the workshop learned about techniques designed to assist countries in expanding their degree of economic development. Emerging markets act as manufacturing bases for global Miltinationals Enterprises because of ________.
Answer:
High availability.of cheaper labour
Explanation:
An emerging market is defined as one that does not meet the standards of a fully developed market. For example in the area.of labour cost there is no standard set for it.
So companies can get cheap labour from these economies.
Companies like Apple and Nike have used cheap labour from emerging countries to reduce their cost of production.
Manufacturing bases are established in relatively poorer economies where the workers are willing to work for cheap wage

Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
First of all, this question is not complete and lacks the group of answer choices. However, I have found that question with complete options on the internet.
So,
The Correct option is: D
Option D = Not enough information
Reasoning:
For overestimated or underestimated or not full information required i.e. cost under traditional method and cost under activity based cost method , both information required for compare methods cost under each method.
Under Activity base costing all indirect cost is applied as per activities use by each product but under traditional method only one key factor use for applied overheads i.e. direct labor hours or machine hours etc.
crane company purchased aa depreciatble asset for $614000 on january 1, 2018. the estimated salvage value os $56000 and the estimated useful life is 9 years. the straight-line method is used for depreciztion. in 2021, crane changed its estimates to a total useful life of 5 years with a salvage value of $92000. what is 2021 depreciation expense
Answer:
$166,000
Explanation:
The computation of the 2021 depreciation expense is shown below:
Depreciation expense is
= (Cost - Salvage value) ÷ Useful life
= ($614,000 - $56,000) ÷ 9
= $62000/year
Now book value as on 2021 is
= (Cost - Accumulated depreciation expense)
= $614,000 - (62000 × 3)
= $424000
Now revised depreciation expense is
= ($424,000 - $92,000) ÷ 2
= $166,000

Community hospital of the west is experiencing changes occurring throughout the facility, many of the employees are concerned about how the change will affect their current position and workflow. Although the employees are aware that change is occurring in the facility, there has been little communication regarding the changes and the employees are feeling unsettled. Describe the steps the hospital needs to do in order to better support employees during the transitional phase of change. What are some consequences for the hospital if this type of support is not provided
Answer:
in order to support the employees during the transitional phase of change, the hospital could try helping the employees get used to the new changes by maybe adding facilities that they are used to or maybe arrange some colleagues that the employees are familiar with to work with them, so they can get used to the new things with some support by their side.
consequences the hospital May face if they don't support their employees to make them feel more comfortable in their workplace, many of their workers May quit and it would be hard to find new employees and it would be time-consuming to teach the new employees all over again.
another consequence is that if their employees are the ones that make a lot of people want to go to their Hospital community, then losing them may make the people that go to the hospital community to not want to return again and maybe leave a bad review, since the help support care and treatment probably isn't the same.

Dawson Toys, Ltd., produces a toy called the Maze. The company has recently established a standard cost system to help control costs and has established the following standards for the Maze toy:Direct materials: 6 microns per toy at $1.50 per micron Direct labor: 1.3 hours per toy at $21 per hourDuring July, the company produced 3,000 Maze toys. Production data for the month on the toy follow:Direct materials: 25,000 microns were purchased at a cost of $1.48 per micron. 5,000 of these microns were still in inventory at the end of the month.Direct labor: 4,000 direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $88,000.Required: 1. Compute the following variances for July:a. The materials price and quantity variances.b. The labor rate and efficiency variances.
Answer:
1. a. The materials price and quantity variances
Material price variance: Standard cost per micron is $1.50 and actual cost per micron is $1.48. So, price variance is 1.48 - 1.5 = $(0.02) per micron
Quantity variance: Based on standard bill of material, Dawson Toys need 3,000 x 6 = 18,000 microns to produce 3,000 Maze toys. Actual consumption volume is 25,000 - 5,000 = 20,000 microns. So, quantity variance is 20,000 - 18,000 = 2,000 microns.
1. b. The labor rate and efficiency variances
Actual labor rate = Actual labor cost / Actual hour = 88,000/4,000 = $22 per hour.
Efficiency variance = Actual labor rate - Standard labor rate = 22 - 21 = $1 per hour.
2. Prepare a brief explanation of the possible causes of each variance.
Direct material cost variance: Total actual material cost is 20,000 x 1.48 = $29,600, higher than standard material cost of 18,000 x 1.5 = $27,000. This is mainly due to higher production waste as compared to standards.
Direct labor cost variance: Total actual labor cost is $88,000, higher than standard labor cost of 4,000 x 21 = $84,000. This is mainly due to lower labor rate per hour than expected.

= (standard quantity - actual quantity) × standard rate
= (6.3 × 890 - 7,150) × $15.10
= (5,607 - 7,150) × $15.10
= $23,299.30 unfavorable
Hence, the material quantity variance is $23,299.30 unfavorable
When the price of a good is $5, the quantity demanded of a good is 30 units, and the quantity supplied of the good is 50 units. For every $1 decrease in the price of this good, quantity demanded rises by 5 units and quantity supplied falls by 5 units. The equilibrium price of this good is ___________and the equilibrium quantity of this good is _________ units.
Answer:
the equilibrium price is $3 and equilibrium quantity is 40
Explanation:
The computation of the equilibrium price and quantity is shown below:
Price Quantity demanded Quantity supplied
$5 30 50
$4 35 45
$3 40 40
$2 45 35
$1 50 30
The equilibrium price is the price where the quantity demanded is equivalent to the quantity supplied
So the equilibrium price is $3 and equilibrium quantity is 40
Assume you are using the dividend growth model to value stocks. If you expect the inflation rate to increase, you should also expect: A. market value of all stocks to decrease, all else equal. B. market value of all stocks to remain constant as the dividend growth will offset the increase in inflation. C. stocks that do not pay dividends to decrease in price while dividend paying stocks maintain a constant price.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
the constant dividend growth model
price = d1 / (r - g)
d1 = next dividend to be paid
r = interest rate
g = growth rate
Interest rate used is usually nominal, thus, it increases with inflation rate
We can see that the interest rate is an inverse function of the value, thus when inflation increases, interest rate increases and price declines
Example
d1 = 5
r = 10%
g = 5%
5/ (0.1 - 0,05) = 100
when interest rate increases to 20% as a result of inflation, value becomes
5 / 0.2 - 0.05 = 33.33
value decreased with increase in inflation
The bond, which has a $1,000 face value and a coupon rate equal to 10 percent, matures in six years. Interest is paid every six months; the next interest payment is scheduled for six months from today. Assuming the yield on similar risk investments is 14 percent, calculate the current market value (price) of the bond.
Answer:
Market value of bond = 841.14
Explanation:
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV) discounted at the yield rate.
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of bond can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
Calculate the PV of interest payments
Semi annual interest payment
= 10% × 1,000× 1/2 = 50
PV of interest payment
A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r
r- semi-annual yield = 14%/2 = 7%
n- 6× 2 = 12
= 50× (1-(1.07^(-12)/0.07
= 397.13
Step 2
PV of redemption Value
PV = $1000 × (1.07)^(-12)
= 444.011
Step 3
Price of bond
= 397.13 +444.01
=841.14
Market value of bond = 841.14

Ivan Knobel holds a well-diversified portfolio that has an expected return of 11.0% and a beta of 1.20. He is in the process of buying 1,000 shares of Syngine Corp at $10 a share and adding it to his portfolio. Syngine has an expected return of 13.0% and a beta of 1.50. The total value of Ivan's current portfolio is $90,000. What will the expected return and beta on the portfolio be after the purchase of the Syngine stock? a. 11.76%; 1.29 b. 10.64%; 1.17 c. 12.97%; 1.42 d. 12.35%; 1.36 e. 11.20%; 1.23
Answer:
e. 11.20%; 1.23
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return and the beta is shown below
For expected return
= ($10,000 ÷ ($10,000 + $90,000) × 13%) + (0.9 × 11%)
= ($10,000 ÷ $100,000 × 13%) + (0.9 × 11%)
= (0.1 × 13%) + (0.9 × 11%)
= 11.20%
And, the beta is
= ($10,000 ÷ 100,000 × 1.50) + ($90,000 ÷ 100,000 × 1.20 )
= 1.23
