Answer:

These statements are true:

Classified balance sheet to provide useful information about liquidity and long-term solvency.

From balance sheet information, liquidity financial ratios can be made, like current ratio (current assets / current liabiliies), or the acid test (Current assets - inventory / current liabilities).

Liquidity refers to an assessment of whether a company will be able to pay all its liabilities.

Liquidity can be defined as the amount of liquid assets that a company has. Liquid assets are those that can be easily sold and bought in the market without a loss of value. Cash, and cash equivalents are the most important liquid accounts. If a firm has a lot of cash, it is likely to have enough liquidity to pay off its debts in the future.

Halifax Manufacturing allows its customers to return merchandise for any reason up to 90 days after delivery and receive a credit to their accounts. All of Halifax's sales are for credit (no cash is collected at the time of sale). The company began 2021 with a refund liability of $400,000. During 2021, Halifax sold merchandise on account for $13,400,000. Halifax's merchandise costs is 65% of merchandise selling price. Also during the year, customers returned $661,000 in sales for credit, with $365,000 of those being returns of merchandise sold prior to 2021, and the rest being merchandise sold during 2021. Sales returns, estimated to be 5% of sales, are recorded as an adjusting entry at the end of the year. Required: 1. Prepare entries to (a) record actual returns in 2021 of merchandise that was sold prior to 2021; (b) record actual returns in 2021 of merchandise that was sold during 2021; and (c) adjust the refund liability to its appropriate balance at year end. 2.

Balance of allowance for sales refunds:   409,000

Explanation:

When returning their goods the customer's receivables are canceled.

We also need to calculate the cost of these goods that return to the company's inventory.

365,000 x 65% = 237,250

296,000 x 65% = 192,400

credit-sales: 13,400,000

estimated returns: 5% >> 670,000

estimated  inventory-returns 670,000 x 65% = 435,500

We work with our liabilities and return accounts rather than the cost of good sold and sales returns as these are adjusted at year-end based on credit sales.

Between quarter 10 and quarter 11, real GDP grew by what percentage?
a. 5%
b. 6%
c. 3%
d. 4%
e. –5%

Answers

Incomplete question.

However, let's assume the real GDP for quarter 10 was  $45,000and for quarter 11 is $47,250.

Answer:

a. 5%

Explanation:

First, remember that the real GDP refers to the total value of all of the final goods and services produced in an economy during a given period (usually a year) after taking into account inflation.

To find the percentage increase, we subtract

$47250-$45,000 = $2250

Next, we find the percentage of the amount on $45,000

$2250/$45000 * 100 = 5%

Zipcar: Creating Value in the Marketplace Zipcar: Creating Value in the Marketplace Nearly a decade ago, the founders of Zipcar decided to bring the car-sharing experience to the United States. Since then, Zipcar has developed the gold standard by offering its members 24/7 access to thousands of cars around the world and creating a revolution in the way many think about alternate transportation. This activity is important because understanding the marketplace, especially consumers' needs and wants, is fundamental to marketing success. The goal of this exercise is to demonstrate how marketing focuses on creating value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large. Read the case of about how Zipcar creates value in the car-sharing services market and answer the questions that follow. Zipcar is a membership-based car sharing service offering automobile rental to its members in hour or day increments. Zipcar was founded in 2000 by Robin Chase and Antje Danielson, who were inspired by the success of car sharing in Europe; Avis Budget Group acquired the company in 2013. Zipcar has become the world's largest car-sharing service in over 50 North American cities, 20+ European cities, and over 100 college campuses in North America. Zipcar offers different types of membership, with plans aimed at both occasional and frequent drivers. In addition, special plans for corporations and universities are offered. In addition to monthly or annual membership fees, customers pay rental charges to use a Zipcar. Members can view vehicle accessibility and reserve a vehicle on Zipcar's website, using its mobile app, or on the telephone. "Zipsters" (as Zipcar members are called) are given a "Zipcard" that contains a wireless chip that opens their reserved vehicle; keys are stored inside the vehicle, along with a gas card members can use to fill the tank. When the Zipster is done with the car, s/he returns it to the car's home location (a reserved spot for the automobile in the member's area). Zipcar's fleet consists of automobiles from Audi, BMW, Ford, Honda, Nissan, and Toyota Ford and Toyota have partnered with Zipcar to test their new electric and hybrid options with Zipcar members. Zipcar focuses not only on creating a convenient experience for its members, but also on developing awareness about alternative transportation options.

You are 20 years old and have completed your BBA and want to pursue further education but you don’t want to make money from your father. Your plan is to start working and earn enough money so that you can finance your degree on your own and get yourself enrolled in five years’ time. You estimate that the annual cost of doing an MBA 5 years from today will be PKR 400,000 and the program will be two years long. You will need the money at the beginning of your program so that you are not worried about how to clear your dues during your studies. Luckily you go for a job interview and they hire you and you start working at a salary of PKR 25,000. So you decide that 50% you will deposit in a saving account at a 10% rate with monthly compounding for your further studies and the remaining amount you will use for your daily expenses. 1. Will you be able to meet your goal at this current saving rate? 2. What percentage of your salary should you save if you want to have exactly your university expenses amount? 3. How would your answer to part 1 change if the saving account rate changed to 5%? Comment on your answer. 4. If you are given an option to invest at the 10% saving rate with monthly compounding or 10.5% semiannual compounding, which would you chose? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

1. Yes, you will be able to meet your goal at this current saving rate since the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years of PKR  967,963.40 is greater than Total MBA cost for 2 years of PKR 800,000.

2. Percentage of monthly salary to save = 41%.

3. You will still be able to meet your goal at the saving rate of 5% since the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years of PKR 850,076.04 is greater than Total MBA cost for 2 years of PKR 800,000. Although, the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years of PKR 967,963.40 at 10% is higher than the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years of PKR 850,076.04 at 5% saving rate.

4. I would choose the saving rate of 10% monthly compounding. The reason is that the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years at 10% semiannual compounding saving rate of PKR 967,963.40 is greater than the Future value of the semiannual savings after 5 years at 10.5% saving rate semiannual compounding of PKR 954,422.88 by an amount of PKR 13,540.52 (i.e. PKR 967,963.40 - PKR 954,422.88 = PKR 13,540.52).

Explanation:

Monthly salary = PKR 25,000

Monthly savings = PKR 25,000 * 50% = PKR 12,500

Annual MBA cost = PKR 400,000

Total MBA cost for 2 years = PKR 400,000 * 2 = PKR 800,000

1. Will you be able to meet your goal at this current saving rate?

To determine this, the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity is used as follows:

FV = M * {[(1 + r)^n - 1] / r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FV = Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years =?

M = Monthly savings = PKR 12,500

r = Monthly interest rate = 10% / 12 = 0.10 /12 = 0.00833333333333333

n = number of months the savings will be made = 5 year * 12 months = 60

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

FV = 12,500 * (((1 + 0.00833333333333333)^60 - 1) / 0.00833333333333333)

FV = 12,500 * 77.4370721734302

FV = PKR 967,963.40

Yes, you will be able to meet your goal at this current saving rate since the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years of PKR  967,963.40 is greater than Total MBA cost for 2 years of PKR 800,000.

2. What percentage of your salary should you save if you want to have exactly your university expenses amount?

To determine this, we still make use of equation (1) in part (1) above by changing Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years (FV) to PKR 800,000 while other values remains the same and solve for Monthly savings (M) after substituting the values into equation (1) follows:

800,000 = M * (((1 + 0.00833333333333333)^60 - 1) / 0.00833333333333333)

800,000 = M * 77.4370721734302

M = 800,000 / 77.4370721734302

M = PKR 10,330.97

Percentage of salary to save = M / Monthly salary = PKR 10,330.97 / PKR 25,000 = 0.41323876409392, or 41%

3. How would your answer to part 1 change if the saving account rate changed to 5%? Comment on your answer.

We use equation (1) is part 1, retain all the other values except r which is obtained as follows:

r = Monthly interest rate = 5% / 12 = 0.05 / 12 = 0.00416666666666667

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

FV = 12,500 * (((1 + 0.00416666666666667)^60 - 1) / 0.00416666666666667)

FV = 12,500 * 68.0060828408433

FV = PKR 850,076.04

You will still be able to meet your goal at the saving rate of 5% since the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years of PKR 850,076.04 is greater than Total MBA cost for 2 years of PKR 800,000. Although, the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years of PKR 967,963.40 at 10% is higher than the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years of PKR 850,076.04 at 5% saving rate.

4. If you are given an option to invest at the 10% saving rate with monthly compounding or 10.5% semiannual compounding, which would you chose? Explain your answer.

From part 1 above, the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years at 10% saving rate monthly compounding is PKR 967,963.40.

To obtain the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years at 10.5% semiannual compounding saving rate, we use equation (1) with changes in definitions to semiannual where:

FV = Future value of the semiannual savings after 5 years =?

M = Semiannual total savings = Monthly saving * 6 months = PKR 12,500 * 6 = PKR 75,000

r = Semiannual interest rate = 10.5% / 2 = 0.105 / 2 = 0.0525

n = number of semiannual the savings will be made = 5 year * 2 semiannuals = 10 semiannuals

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

FV = 75,000 * (((1 + 0.0525)^10 - 1) / 0.0525)

FV = 75,000 * 12.7256383972991

FV = PKR 954,422.88

Therefore, I would choose the saving rate of 10% monthly compounding.

The reason is that the Future value of the monthly savings after 5 years at 10% semiannual compounding saving rate of PKR 967,963.40 is greater than the Future value of the semiannual savings after 5 years at 10.5% saving rate semiannual compounding of PKR 954,422.88 by an amount of PKR 13,540.52 (i.e. PKR 967,963.40 - PKR 954,422.88 = PKR 13,540.52).

Equivalent Units of Materials Cost The Rolling Department of Kraus Steel Company had 4,600 tons in beginning work in process inventory (70% complete) on October 1. During October, 77,000 tons were completed. The ending work in process inventory on October 31 was 3,900 tons (40% complete). What are the total equivalent units for direct materials for October if materials are added at the beginning of the process? 80,900 units

Answers

Answer:

Total equivalent units= 80,900 tons

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

During October, 77,000 tons were completed. The ending work in process inventory on October 31 was 3,900 tons (40% complete).

Because the direct material is added at the beginning of the process, we should not take into account the beginning inventory. It was recognized the previous month.

For direct material, each ton is completed at 100%.

Units completed= 77,000*1 = 77,000

Ending inventory= 3,900*1= 3,900

Total equivalent units= 80,900 tons

Jiminy Cricket Removal has a profit margin of 7.6%, total asset turnover of 1.73, and ROE of 17.2%. What is this firm s debt-equity ratio?

Answers

Answer:

The debt to equity ratio is 30.81%

Explanation:

The computation of the debt equity ratio is shown below:

ROE = Profit margin × Asset turnover × equity multiplier

17.2% = 7.6% × 1.73 × (1 + debt ÷ equity)

17.2 ÷ 13.148  =  (1 + debt ÷ equity)

1.308184 = (1 + debt ÷ equity)

So, after solving this,

hence, The debt to equity ratio is 30.81%

You can buy property today for $3 million and sell it in 5 years for $4 million. (You earn no rental income on the property.) (LO5-2) a. If the interest rate is 8%, what is the present value of the sales price? b. Is the property investment attractive to you? c. Would your answer to part (b) change if you also could earn $200,000 per-year rent on the property? The rent is paid at the end of each year.

Answers

Answer:

a) Present Value of sales = $2,722,332.78

b) Property is not attractive. NPV$ (277,667.21)

c) Property is attractive. NPV-$520,874.79

Explanation:

The present value of the property

PV = S×  (1+r)^(-n)

S- Sales value

r- interest rate -8%

n- number of years

PV - present value

PV = 4,000,000× 1.08^(-5) = $2,722,332.78

b.  Is the property investment attractive to you?

We calculated the PV of the investment as follows

NPV = PV of sales value - initial cost

= 2,722,332.78 - 3,000,000=$ (277,667.21)

The property investment is not attractive because it will produce a loss in capital i.e negative NPV

C

To determine we will calculate the NPV again with considering the additional rental income

PV of annual rent = 200,000 ×  (1-1.08^(-5))/0.08= 798,542.00

NPV = 798,542.00  + 277,667.2119  - 3,000,000 =520,874.79

The property is attractive as it produces positive NPV

So,

Current asset is

= $3,640 + $5,430

= $9,070

Now the current ratio is

= $9,070 ÷ $5,430

= 1.67 times

b. The quick ratio is

Quick ratio = (Current asset - Inventory) ÷  Current liability

= ($9,070 - $4,290)÷  $5,430

= $4,780 ÷ $5,430

= 0.88 times

Shares Remaining After Recapitalization Dye Trucking raised $290 million in new debt and used this to buy back stock. After the recap, Dye's stock price is $8.5. If Dye had 75 million shares of stock before the recap, how many shares does it have after the recap? Enter your answers in millions. For example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. million shares

Answers

Answer: 40.8824 million

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Dye Trucking raised $290 million in new debt and used this to buy back stock and that after the recap, Dye's stock price is $8.5.

If Dye had 75 million shares of stock before the recap, the number of shares that it'll have after the recap goes thus:

The number of shares repurchased is:

= $290million/$8.5

= 34,117,647

= 34.1176 million

Shares after the recap will now be:

= 75 million - 34.1176 million

= 40.8824 million

What is the amount of the non-cash Items for 2015?
a. $481 million
b. $227 million
c. $311 mllon
d. $473 million?

Answers

Answer: c. $311 mllon

Explanation:

Non-cash items are those items that go into the income statement and can either increase or decrease profits but do not have an actual cash value. In other words, they may affect the calculation of profit but they do not impact the company's cash flow.

Examples include; Depreciation and Amortization

, deferred income taxes  and loss on disposal of property and equipment.  

From the statements of Woodlands Inc., there seems to be only one non-cash item which is Depreciation at a value of $311 million.

B. Conduct interviews with subject experts.
C. Go to the library, and look for books on the subject.
D. Hold focus groups.

Answers

Answer:

A. Search electronic databases for relevant material.

C. Go to the library, and look for books on the subject.

Explanation:

In a research study, a secondary source is a term that describes a form of source which is not the original source to the interpreted data. In other words, it involves already prepared data which can easily be found in places like academic books and journals

Hence, in this case, when performing secondary-source research, the following should be done amongst others:

1. Search electronic databases for relevant material.

2. Go to the library, and look for books on the subject.

This is because the aforementioned involves a place to get a secondary source and it will save time and effort.

On the other hand, Holding focus groups and conducting interviews involves primary source research

Manufacturer A has a profit margin of 2.0%, an asset turnover of 1.7 and a liabilities-to-assets ratio of 0.8. Manufacturer B has a profit margin of 2.3%, an asset turnover of 1.1 and an equity multiplier of 4.7. How much asset turnover should manufacturer B have to match manufacturer A's ROE

Answers

Answer:

1.54

Explanation:

The computation of the asset turnover for manufacturer B to match with the manufacturer A is shown below:

As we know that

Return on equity = profit margin × asset turnover × gearing

2 × 1.7 × 4.9 = 2.3 ×  Asset tunover × 4.7

After solving this, the asset turnover is 1.54 times

So it should be 1.54 for matching

Also, we assume that there is an equity multiplier for manufacturer A of 4.9 instead of liabilities-to-assets ratio so we considered the same in the above computation part

Explanation:

A manufacturer of tiling grout has supplied the following data:
Kilograms produced and sold 340,000
Sales revenue $1,910,000
Variable manufacturing expense $956,000
Fixed manufacturing expense $258,000
Variable selling and administrative expense $363,000
Fixed selling and administrative expense $224,000
Net operating income $109,000
The company's contribution margin ratio is closest to:_______.
(A) 49.9%
(B) 81.0%
(C) 30.9%
(D) 74.8%

Answers

Answer:

(C) 30.9%

Explanation:

Calculation for the company's contribution margin ratio

First step is to find the Contribution margin using this formula

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable expenses

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin = $1,910,000-$1,319,000

Contribution margin = $591,000

Second step is to calculate for the Contribution margin ratio using this formula

Contribution margin ratio= Contribution margin ÷ Sales

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin ratio = $591,000 ÷ $1,910,000

Contribution margin ratio = 0.309×100

Contribution margin ratio=30.9%

Calculation for Total Variable expenses

Variable manufacturing expense $956,000

Variable selling and administrative expense $363,000

Total $1,319,000

Therefore the Contribution margin ratio will be 30.9%

The company's contribution margin ratio is closest to 30.9%. A company's contribution margin ratio (CM ratio) is determined by dividing revenue by revenue less all variable costs. It stands for the small gain from manufacturing an extra unit. Thus, option C is correct.

The company's contribution margin ratio is calculated as:

Sales minus variable costs equal contribution margin.

formula:

Margin of contribution = $1,910,000 - $1,319,000

Margin of contribution = $591,000

The Contribution margin ratio is calculated in the following step using this formula.

Sales Contribution Margin to Calculate Contribution Margin Ratio

formula:

The ratio of contribution: $591,000 divided by $1,910,000

Contribution margin ratio: 0.309 to one hundred.

The ratio of contribution is 30.9%

Total Variable Expense Calculation

$956,000 in variable manufacturing costs

$363,00 in variable marketing and administrative costs

Total $1,319,000

The Contribution Margin Ratio will thus be 30.9%.

Revenue is less variable costs equal contribution margin. The formula for calculating the contribution margin ratio is (Revenue - Variable Costs) / Revenue.

The contribution margin may not always be a reliable indicator of economic gain.  There may be major fixed costs that businesses must take into account. To ascertain how many units must be sold at what price for a business to break even, a break-even analysis may be necessary.

Kayleigh is looking over a number of material requisition slips from her employees. She has to sign off on each request after reviewing it, which she thinks is a waste of time and effort. Kayleigh believes that having the name of the employee who requested the materials should be enough. Is she correct?

Answers

Answer: B :  No, approval by an individual other than the requestor establishes greater accountability over inventory.

Explanation:

The purpose of reviewing the material requisition slips is to ensure that there is greater accountability in inventory acquisition and this is why it is important that someone else apart from the person requesting approves the inventory request as it will reduce chances of fraud.  

If the person requesting could also approve, there is a chance that inventory that is not needed will be ordered and then used for purposes other than to benefit the business but to benefit the person who requested it.
