a. Revenue            Overstatements

b. Assets               Overstatements

c. Liabilities           Understatements

Explanation:

Auditors are generally concerned about these assertions when auditing financial statements and their related disclosures: accurate recording, completeness, cut-off, existence, rights and obligations, and valuation.  For revenue and assets, they want to ensure that these are not overstated.  Their overstatement will increase the reported profits of the entity, which is a kind of cooking the books to please analysts.  They are also interested in ensuring that liabilities and expenses are not understated for the same purpose.

Barbara is a single taxpayer who had a 2020 adjusted gross income of $25,000 and contributed $4,000 to her traditional IRA. Assuming she has a $2,000 income tax liability for the year, what is her maximum retirement contribution savings credit

Answers

Answer:

$200

Explanation:

The retirement contribution savings credit is designed to benefit low and middle income tax payers that contribute to retirement accounts.

The maximum credit ranges from $200 to $1,000 per taxpayer.

Since Barbara earned below $32,500, she applies for this tax credit.

Since her AGI is over $21,251, she can only deduct 10% of the first $2,000 contributed to her IRA account = $2,000 x 10% = $200

Abbott Landscaping purchased a tractor at a cost of $29,000 and sold it three years later for $15,700. Abbott recorded depreciation using the straight-line method, a five-year service life, and a $4,000 residual value. Tractors are included in the Equipment account.

Required:
Record the sale of equipment.

Answers

Answer:

Cash                                             15700 Dr

Accumulated depreciation         15000 Dr

   Equipment - Tractor                       29000 Cr

   Gain on sale - Equipment               1700 Cr

Explanation:

The straight line method of depreciation charges a constant depreciation expense per year throughout the useful life of the asset. The formula for depreciation expense under this method is,

Depreciation expense = (Cost - Residual value) / Estimated useful life of the asset

Depreciation expense per year = (29000 - 4000) / 5 = $5000 per year

As the asset was sold after three years, the accumulated depreciation on the asset would be = 5000 * 3 = $15000

The NBV or carrying value of the asset will be = 29000 - 15000 = 14000

The gain on sale of equipment will be = 15700 - 14000 = $1700

Novak Corp. had accounts receivable of $140,000 on January 1, 2022. The only transactions that affected accounts receivable during 2022 were net credit sales of $3,795,000, cash collections of $3,725,000, and accounts written off of $20,000.

Required:
a. Compute the ending balance of accounts receivable.
b. Compute the accounts receivable turnover for 2016.
c. Compute the average collection period in days.

Answers

Answer:

a $210,000

b 21.69 times

c 16.83 average days

Explanation:

a. The ending balance of accounts receivable

= Accounts receivables at the beginning - Cash collections + Net Credit sales

Given that;

Accounts receivables at the beginning = $140,000

Cash collections = $3,725,000

Net Credit sales = $3,795,000

Ending balance of accounts receivable

= $140,000 + $3,795,000 - $3,725,000

= $210,000

b. Compute the accounts receivable turnover

= Net credit sales + [(Beginning account receivable + Ending account receivable) / 2]

= $3,795,000 ÷ [ ($140,000 + $210,000)/2]

= $3,795,000 ÷ $175,000

= 21.69 times

c. Compute the average collection period

= Average accounts receivable ÷ [Annual sales ÷ 365]

= $175,000 ÷ ($3,795,000 ÷ 365)

= $175,000 ÷ $10,397

= 16.83 average days to collect receivables

Each unit of finished goods requires 3 grams of raw material. The company plans to sell 170,000 units during the year. How much of the raw material should the company purchase during the year?

a. 552,000 grams
b. 540,000 grams
c. 530,000 grams
d. 582,000 grams

Answers

Answer:

c.530,000 grams

Explanation:

Calculation for How much of the raw material should the company purchase during the year

First step is to prepare the Production Budget

PRODUCTION BUDGET

Budgeted unit sales 170,000

Add desired ending finished goods inventory

32,000

Total 202,000

(170,000+32,000)

Less beginning finished goods inventory (22,000)

Required production in units 180,000

(202,000-22,000)

Second step is to prepare Materials Budget

MATERIALS BUDGET

Raw materials required for production 540,000

(180,000*3 grams)

Add desired ending finished goods inventory

42,000

Total raw materials needed 582,000

(540,000+42,000)

Less beginning finished goods inventory (52,000)

Required material purchases 530,000 grams

(582,000-52,000)

Therefore the amount of the raw material that the company should purchase during the year is $530,000 grams

a. $75.98 per minute
b. $6.96 per minute
c. $39.66 per minute
d. $12.32 per minute

Answers

Answer:

the least profitable is $39.66 per unit or 9.72 per minute

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

The Price Per Unit for WX is

= $355.20 - $259.22

= $95.98

Price Per Unit for KD is

= $228.48 - $173.04

= $55.44

And, the Price Per Unit for FS is

= $199.23 - $159.57

= $39.66

Now

Price per Minute for WX is

= $95.98 ÷ 7.70

= 12.46

Price Per Minute for KD is

= $55.44 ÷ 4.50

= 12.32

And, Price Per Minute for FS is

= $55.44 ÷ 5.70

= 9.72

So here the least profitable is $39.66 per unit or 9.72 per minute

Answers

Answer:

b. 162.5

Explanation:

Missing question "long-run cost functions are given by TC(Q)= 6Q^3-30Q^2+200Q"

TC(Q)= 6Q^3-30Q^2+200Q"

Marginal cost = 18Q^2 - 60Q + 200

Average Total Cost = 6Q^2 - 30Q + 200

ЭATC / ЭQ = 0

12Q - 30 = 0

Q = 2.5

ATC = 6Q^2 - 30Q + 200

ATC = 6*(2.5)^2 - 30(2.5) + 200

ATC = 37.5 - 75 + 200

ATC = 162.5

Thus, P = 162.5

Barbara's employer offers health coverage to its employees. However, Barbara feels it is unaffordable and wants to apply for a health insurance premium tax credit. In order for the coverage to be deemed unaffordable in 2020, Barbara's self-only premium must exceed ___% of her household income.

Answers

Answer:

9.83%

Explanation:

If the health insurance premium represents 9.83% of Barbara's income or less, it is considered affordable coverage. Only if it exceeds the 9.83% threshold, will Barbara be able to request a health insurance premium tax credit. Theoretically, if Barbara's health insurance was purchased in the Health Insurance Marketplace, the tax credit should be automatic and her premium should be lowered so that it can become affordable.

Although the cost-plus method approach to product pricing may be used by management as a general guidance, when are some examples of other factors that managers should also consider in setting product prices?

Explanation:

In its literal sense, value-based pricing means basing pricing on the advantages of the product perceived by the consumer rather than on the exact cost of product creation.

y = 3.8785x + 18.3538

x will be 30 because the variables are based on 100 square feet so, 3,000/100 = 30

y = 3.8785 *(30) + 18.3538

= $134.7088 (thousands of dollars)

= $134,708.80
