Answer:
Break-even point in units= 32 slices
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $14.22
Unitary variable cost= $9.22
Fixed costs= 106 + 55= $161
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 161/ (14.22 - 9.22)
Break-even point in units= 32 slices
A company applies overhead at a rate of 150% of direct labor cost. Actual overhead cost for the current period is $1,150,000, and direct labor cost is $565,000. Determine whether there is over- or underapplied overhead using the T-account below. Factory OverheadActual Overhead 950,000 Overapplied overhead 950,000
Answer:
Under applied overheads= $302,500
Explanation:
Overheads are charged to units produced by the means of an estimated overhead absorption rate. This rate is computed using budgeted overhead and budgeted activity level.
As a result of this, overhead charged to total units product might be over or under absorbed compared to the actual amount incurred.
Overhead absorption rate
=budgeted Overhead/Budgeted labour cost × 100
This already given in the question as 150% of the direct labour rate
= 150% of direct labour cost
Applied overhead= OAR× actual labour cost
= 150% × $565,000=$847,500
Under applied overhead = is the difference between actual overhead and applied overhead
$1,150,000 - $847,500 = $302,500
Under applied overheads= $302,500
Here it is under applied because the applied is less than the actual overhead cost

On January 1, 20X6, Plus Corporation acquired 90 percent of Side Corporation for $180,000 cash. Side reported net income of $30,000 and dividends of $10,000 for 20X6, 20X7, and 20X8. On January 1, 20X6, Side reported common stock outstanding of $100,000 and retained earnings of $60,000, and the fair value of the noncontrolling interest was $20,000. It held land with a book value of $30,000 and a market value of $35,000 and equipment with a book value of $50,000 and a market value of $60,000 at the date of combination. The remainder of the differential at acquisition was attributable to an increase in the value of patents, which had a remaining useful life of five years. All depreciable assets held by Side at the date of acquisition had a remaining economic life of five years. Plus uses the equity method in accounting for its investment in Side. Based on the preceding information, the increase in the fair value of patents held by Side is:
Answer:
$25,000
Explanation:
Plus corporation acquired 90% of Side Corporation for $180,000 cash.
Net income = $30,000
Dividend for 3 years = $10,000
Common stock outstanding = $100,000
Retained earnings = $60,000
Fair value = $20,000
Book value of land = $30,000
Market value of land = $35,000
Book value of equipment = $50,000
Market value of equipment = $60,000
Required:
Find the increase in the fair value of patents held by Side Corporation.
To find the increase in the fair value of patents, use:
Increase in fair value = Fair value of corporation - Total value without patent.
Where
Fair value = $180,000 + $20,000 = $200,000
Total value without patent = common stoc(100,000) + retained earnings(60,000) + equipment adjustment($60,000 - $50,000 = $10,000) + land adjustment($35,000 - $30,000= $5,000) =
$100,000 + $60,000 + $10,000 + $5,000 = $175,000
Therefore,
Increase = Fair value of corporation($200,000) - Total value without patent($175,000) = $25,000
The increase in the fair value of patents held by Side Corporation is $25,000
Bolton Tire Manufacturing and the union came to an impasse during negotiation of the collective bargaining agreement. Specifically, they could not agree on the wage increase for the employees.

C. The employees have engaged in a sitdown strike.
D. None of the choices are correct.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option A: the employees have engaged in an unfair labor practice strike.
Explanation:
To begin with, due to the fact that the union was already establishing the area for the negotiation and they might have planeed obviously to keep trying to increase the situation in their favour then the action taken by the employees was a bit hurry and was obvious that was not thought very well with calm minds and therefore that they engaged in an unfair labor practice strike because they had to be patience and wait for the union to improve the situation for them, because their are the representatives and if the company sees that the workers do not obey to the representatives then the union will lose negotiation power and the situation will get worse for them.

Answer: C $9,400,000 E $600,000; B $10,000,000
Explanation:
The Company Issued bonds worth $10,000,000 but only received $9,400,000 in cash.
This means that they issued the Bonds at a discount. With the discount being the difference between how much was issued and how much was received.
This discount will be sent to the Discount on Bonds Payable account.
The Cash received of $9,400,000 will be sent to the cash account.
The company will still have to pay the entire figure of $10,000,000 in bonds so the full amount will go to the Bonds Payable account.
The Journal Entry is thus,
DR Cash $9,400,000
DR Discount on Bonds Payable $600,000
CR Bonds Payable $10,000,000

False True e. In a perfectly competitive market, marginal revenue is equal to the market price. False True
Answer:
A. False
B. True
C. False
D. False
E. True
F. True
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterised 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.
If a seller increases her price, her demand would fall to zero because customers woild patronize other suppliers. Also, there is no incentive to reduce price because the firm would be making a loss. This is the reason why the firm's demand curve is perfectly elastic, the firm can only sell at one price. This price is set by the market forces.
The market's demand curve is downward sloping
Price = average revenue = Marginal revenue

Suppose that in the rice market demand shifts greatly due to a new rice diet that is being marketed heavily in the U.S. as a cure for cancer. Simultaneously the supply curve shifts slightly due to a healthy rainy season that positively affects the rice crop in California. What is the most likely outcome in this situation?
Answer:
the equilibrium price increases, albeit by a negligible amount
Explanation:
Here are the options to this question :
the supply curve will shift again after demand meets supply
the equilibrium price increases
the equilibrium price increases, albeit by a negligible amount
the demand curve will shift back to its original level
The new rice diet that is being marketed heavily in the U.S. as a cure for cancer would increase the demand for rice. This would shift the demand curve rightward. This shift of the demand curve would increase demand and price
The hw healthy rainy season that positively affects the rice crop in California woild increase the supply of rice and as a result the supply curve would shift to the right. The rightward shift of the supply curve would cause quantity to rise and price to fall.
This combined effect would lead to a rise in quantity and a rise in price by only a negligible amount.

When a monopolistically competitive market opens up to international trade, each firm produces a greater quantity of output than it did before. Explain why this is
Answer:
The correct answer is the increase in the amount of buyers.
Explanation:
To begin with, due to the fact that the company is now selling internationally then the market is wide more open for them to increase the portfolio of clients and moreover to increase the amount of sales that the company is having. Therefore that when the company starts to trade internationally it will increase its amount of consumers that will be able to buy from them and also the amount of resellers that can buy from them to buy to final consumers. Primarily, the improvement in the increase of buyers will tend to increase the amount of production that the company is producing and so also the amount of sales so therefore that the company will produce a greater quantity of output than it did before.

(4%×233,000)
Cr Estimated Warranty Liability 9,320
Deborah Lewis, general manager of the Northwest Division of Berkshire Co., has significant authority over pricing decisions as well as programs that involve cost reduction/control. The data that follow relate to upcoming divisional operations:
Average invested capital: $15,000,000
Annual total fixed costs: $3,900,000
Variable cost per unit: $80
Number of units expected to be sold: 120,000
Assume the unit selling price is $132 and that Berkshire has a 16% imputed interest charge.
Top management will promote Deborah to corporate headquarters if her division can generate $200,000 of residual income (RI). If Deborah desires to move to corporate, what adjustment must the division do to the amount of annual total fixed costs?
Answer:
The revised fixed costs = $3,640,000
Explanation:
Calculation of Residual Income:
Residual Income = Net income - (Invested capital * Minimum required rate of return)
Net Income = Sales - Variable costs - Fixed costs
Net Income = (120,000*132) - (120,000*80) - 3,900,000
Net Income = $2,340,000
Invested capital = $15,000,000
Minimum required rate of return = 16%
Therefore, residual income = $2,340,000 - ($15,000,000 * 16%)
= -$60,000
Hence, adjustment to be made to the amount of fixed costs so that residual income becomes $200,000 = $200,000+$60,000 = $260,000
Therefore, revised fixed costs = $3,900,000 - $260,000 = $3,640,000

Suppose you borrow $10,000 right now to start a business. If the terms of the loan require you to pay back $16,000 in 5 years, what is the implied annual compound interest rate
Answer:
r = 9.86%
Explanation:
The formula for calculating the future value of an invested amount yielding a compound interest is given by:
[tex]FV=PV(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]
where:
FV = future value = $16,000
PV = present value = $10,000
r = interest rate = ?
n = number of compounding period per year = 1
t = time in years = 5
∴ [tex]16000=10000(1+\frac{r}{1})^{5}[/tex]
dividing both sides by 10,000
[tex]\frac{16000}{10000} =\frac{10000(1+\frac{r}{1})^{5}}{10000}[/tex]
[tex]1.6 = (1 + r)^{5}[/tex]
to remove the power of 5, we have to take the 5th root of both sides:
[tex](1.6)^{1/5} = (1 + r )^{5 * 1/5}[/tex]
Using your calculator:
1.09856 = 1 + r
∴ r = 1.09856 - 1 = 0.09856
r = 0.0986 = 9.86%
∴ r = 9.86%
In 2010, the BowWow Company purchased 11,752 units from its supplier at a cost of $ 11.73 per unit. BowWow sold 18,971 units of its product in 2010 at a price of $ 24.86 per unit. BowWow began 2010 with $ 864,593 in inventory (inventory is carried at a cost of $ 11.73 per unit). Using this information, compute BowWow's 2010 ending inventory balance (in dollars).
Answer:
Ending inventory balance is $ 779,914.13
Explanation:
The cost of goods sold formula can be used to determine the ending inventory by rearranging the formula and making the ending inventory the subject of the formula:
cost of goods=beginning inventory+inventory purchased-ending inventory
ending inventory=beginning inventory+inventory purchased-costs of goods sold
ending inventory=$864,593+(11,752*$11.73)-(18971*$11.73)=$ 779,914.13

Answer:
III. The profits that could be earned in another business using the same amount of resources.
Explanation:
Opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.
Simply stated, it is the cost of not enjoying the benefits, profits or value associated with the alternative forgone or best alternative choice available.
Hence, the opportunity cost of owning a business is the profits that could be earned in another business using the same amount of resources.
For instance, if you decide to invest resources such as money in a food business (restaurant), your opportunity cost would be the profits you could have earned if you had invest the same amount of resources in a salon business or any other business as the case may be.

Platen purchased inventory on August 17 and received an invoice with a list price amount of $5,900 and payment terms of 4/10, n/30. Platen uses the net method to record purchases. For what amount should Platen record the purchase
Answer:
$5,664
Explanation:
Calculation of the amount that Platen should record the purchase.
Using this formula
List price -(Percentage of payment term × list price)
Let plug in the formula
$5,900 -(4%×5,900 )
=$5,900-$236
=$5,664
Therefore Platen should record the purchase on August 17 as a:
Debit to Purchases (periodic system) and a Credit to Accounts Payable for $5,664
Therefore the amount that Platen should record the purchase will be $5,664
T. Boone Pickens football stadium at Oklahoma State University has a seating capacity of about 40,000. Assume the stadium sells out all six home games before the season begins and the athletic department collects $31 million in ticket sales.
Required:
a. What was the average price per season ticket and average price per individual game ticket sold?
b. Record the advance collection of $29 million in ticket sales.
c. Record the revenue earned after the first home game was completed.
Answer:
Total collection of ticket sales is $31 million
Seating capacity is 40,000 tickets
Average price per season ticket = Total collection / Seating capacity
=$31,000,000 / 40,000
=$775
Therefore, the average price per season ticket is $775
Average price per individual game ticket sold = Average price per ticket / Number of games
= 775 / 6
= $129
Therefore, the average price per individual game sold is $129 and the number of games is 6

Between April 1 and May 1, Bob's price increased by____________ or __________
Between May 1 and June 1, Bob's price decreased by ___________ or ___________
Suppose that at a gas station across the street, prices are always 20% higher than Bob’s. In absolute dollar terms, the difference between Bob’s prices and the prices across the street is___________ when gas costs $3.90 than when gas costs $3.40.
Some economists blame high commodity prices (including the price of gas) on interest rates being too low.
Suppose the Fed raises the target for the federal funds rate from 2% to 2.5%. This change of _________ percentage points means that the Fed raised its target by approximately __________
Answer:
1. Bob's Corner Station:
Prices of Gas per gallon:
Between April 1 and May 1, Bob's price increased by___$0.50_________ or ____14.7%______
Between May 1 and June 1, Bob's price decreased by ___$0.50________ or ____12.82%_______.
2. In absolute dollar terms, the difference between Bob’s prices and the prices across the street is___$0.02________ when gas costs $3.90 than when gas costs $3.40.
3. Suppose the Fed raises the target for the federal funds rate from 2% to 2.5%. This change of ___25______ percentage points means that the Fed raised its target by approximately ____25%______
Explanation:
a) Computation of Price Increases:
i) Gas at Bob's
Between April 1 and May 1, price increased by $0.50 ($3.90 - $3.40)
This is an increase of 14.7% ($0.50/$3.40 x 100).
Between May 1 and June 1, price decreased by $0.50 ($3,90 - $3.40)
This is a decrease of 12.82% ($0.50/$3.90 x 100)
ii) When gas costs $3.40 at Bob's, the price at the other gas station will be $4.08 ($3.40 x 1.2), a difference of $0.68 ($4.08 - $3.40).
iii) When gas costs $3.90 at Bob's, the price at the other gas station will be $4.68 ($3.90 x 1.2), a difference of $0.78 ($4.68 - $3.90).
iv) So in absolute terms, the dollar difference is $0.02 ($0.78 - $0.68) when gas costs $3.90 than when gas costs $3.40.
v) Percentage and percentage points describe the relationship between two sets of data. Percent refers to the rate of change, whereas percentage point measures the actual amount of change.
vi) The percent change in our case is calculated as follows:
Change in Rate divided by Former Rate = (2.5 - 2)/ 2 = 0.25 = 25%.
The percentage point of 25% = 25.
