b. Independent of your answer to part a, assume that the proceeds were 514,820,000. Use the horizontal model (or write the journal entry) to show the effect of issuing the bonds.
c. Calculate the interest expense that Coley Co. will show with respect to these bonds in its income statement for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, assuming that the discount of 5180,000 is amortized on a straight-line basis.
Answer:
a. Assume that the market interest rates were slightly higher than 9% when the bonds were sold. Would the proceeds from the bond issue have been more than, less than, or equal to the face amount? Explain.
If the market interest is higher than the coupon interest, then the bonds will sell at a discount. This means that the amount of cash received will be less than the $515 million face valueb. Independent of your answer to part a, assume that the proceeds were 514,820,000. Use the horizontal model (or write the journal entry) to show the effect of issuing the bonds.

Abburi Company's manufacturing overhead is 55% of its total conversion costs. If direct labor is $45,900 and if direct materials are $27,200, the manufacturing overhead is:
Answer:
Manufacturing Overheads = $56100
Explanation:
The conversion cost defined simply is the cost involved in turning the raw material or direct material into the finished products. Conversion cost is calculated by adding the direct labor cost and the manufacturing overhead cost.
Conversion cost = Direct labor + Manufacturing overheads
As we know that the manufacturing overhead is 55% of conversion cost, then the direct labor cost is 45% of conversion cost.
If 45% of conversion cost is $45900, then the total conversion cost will be,
Conversion cost = 45900 * 100/45 = $102000
Manufacturing Overheads = 102000 - 45900 = $56100

O'NeillO'Neill's Products manufactures a single product. Cost, sales, and production information for the company and its single product is as follows:
Selling price per unit is $54
Variable manufacturing costs per unit manufactured includes direct materials DM, direct labor DL, and variable MOH $27.
Variable operating expenses per unit sold $4
Fixed manufacturing overhead (MOH) in total for the year $120,000
Fixed operating expenses in total for the year $92,000
Units manufactured and sold for the year 12,000 units
Required:
a. Prepare an income statement for the upcoming year using variable costing.
b. Prepare an income statement for the upcoming year using absorption costing.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
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).
Absorption costing income statement:
Sales= 12,000*54= 648,000
COGS= (12,000*27) + 120,000= (444,000)
Gross profit= 204,000
Total operating expenses= (12,000*4) + 92,000= (140,000)
Net operating income= 64,000
Variable costing income statement:
Sales= 648,000
Total variable cost= 12,000*(27 + 4)= (372,000)
Total contribution margin= 276,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead= (120,000)
Fixed operating expenses= (92,000)
Net operating income= 64,000

A. True
B. False
he Clark Company fails to record these two adjusting journal entries: Depreciation on Equipment: $10 Cash Dividends declared: $40 Working capital will be:
Answer:
Working Capital will be overstated by the amount of $40.
Explanation:
Of the two the adjusting entries, we need to identify the adjusting entry that affects any element of Working Capital (Current Assets or Current Liability).
Depreciation Entries include : Debit Depreciation Expense (Expense) $10 and Credit Accumulated Depreciation $10.
Cash Dividends Declared Entries include : Debit Dividend (Equity) $40 and Credit Shareholders for Dividends (Liability) $40.
Thus, the Liabilities will be understated due to omission of Cash Dividends Declared Entries.
Subsequently, Working Capital will be overstated by the amount of $40.

A firm only has current assets and fixed assets. Its current assets are $100,000 and total assets are $300,000. The firm's sales are $900,000. The firm's fixed asset turnover is
Answer:
Firm's fixed asset turnover = 4.5
Explanation:
Given:
Current assets = $100,000
Total assets = $300,000
Firm's sales = $900,000
Find:
Firm's fixed asset turnover
Computation:
Fixed assets = Total assets - Current assets
Fixed assets = $300,000 - $100,000
Fixed assets = $200,000
Fixed asset turnover = Sales / Fixed asset
Firm's fixed asset turnover = $900,000 / $200,000
Firm's fixed asset turnover = 4.5
The following data relate to factory overhead cost for the production of 10,000 computers:
Actual: Variable factory overhead $262,000
Fixed factory overhead 90,000
Standard: 14,000 hrs. at $25 350,000
If productive capacity of 100% was 15,000 hours and the total factory overhead cost budgeted at the level of 14,000 standard hours was $356,000, determine the variable factory overhead controllable variance, fixed factory overhead volume variance, and total factory overhead cost variance. The fixed factory overhead rate was $6.00 per hour.
Answer:
1.-4,000 Favorable
2.6,000 Unfavorable
3.$2,000 Unfavorable
Explanation:
1.Preparation to determine variable factory overhead Controllable variance

Variable Factory Overhead Controllable Variance $4,000 Favorable
Fixed Factory Overhead Volume Variance $6,000 Unfavorable
Factory Overhead Cost Variance$2,000 Unfavorable
When units produced are greater than units sold under variable costing, fixed overhead is an expense and results in___________(lower, higher) net income than under absorption costing.
Answer: lower
Explanation:
Variable costing is a method used in accounting whereby the manufacturing overhead will be incurred at the particular period when the product is produced.
In the absorption costing method, the indirect expenses which are the overheads and the direct costs are taken into consideration.
The variable costing helps to solve the issue regarding absorption costing which allows for an increase in income as there is am increase in production.
In 2008, the United States began to witness one of the worst recessions since the 1930s. The collapse of the housing bubble in 2006 led to a massive decline in real estate prices, affecting consumers and institutions, especially banking and financial entities. Severe liquidity shortfalls in the United States as well as other global markets led to a serious credit crisis. During the credit crisis of 2008–2009, several banks and other businesses went through a reorganization process or were forced to liquidate. Consider the following example:________.
In January 2009, American electronics retailer Circuit City Inc. closed all of its stores and sold all of its merchandise.
The above is an example of:______.
A. Reorganization
B. Liquidation.
Answer:
B. Liquidation.
Explanation:
Liquidation is and aftermath of the inability of a company or establishment to meet up with her obligations at the required moment. Thus, the company folds-up, lay off her staff and stop operating. While reorganization is a form of restructuring in a company or establishment. It may involve change of positions and duties among capable staff.
The example in the given scenario is that of liquidation because it ceased from operation.
Saint Nick Enterprises has 17,500 shares of common stock outstanding at a price of $69 per share. The company has two bond issues outstanding. The first issue has 7 years to maturity, a par value of $1,000 per bond, and sells for 101.5 percent of par. The second issue matures in 21 years, has a par value of $2,000 per bond, and sells for 106.5 percent of par. The total face value of the first issue is $250,000, while the total face value of the second issue is $350,000. What is the capital structure weight of debt
Answer:
total weight of debt = 0.343 or 34.3%
Explanation:
stock's market value = 17,500 x $69 = $1,207,500
bond₁'s market value = $250,000 x 101.5% = $256,750
bond₂'s market value = $350,000 x 106.5% = $372,750
total market value of the firm = $1,837,000
weighted capital structure:
market value weight
stocks $1,207,500 0.657
bond₁ $256,750 0.140
bond₂ $372,750 0.203
total $1,837,000 1
total weight of debt = 0.343 or 34.3%

At the beginning of year 1, Looby Corp. purchases equipment for $100,000. The equipment has a residual value of $20,000 and an expected useful life of 10 years. What is accumulated depreciation at the end of year 2 using straight-line depreciation
Answer:
Accumulated Depreciation at the end of year = $16,000
Explanation:
Under the straight line method of depreciation, the cost of an asset less the salvage value is spread equally over the expected useful life.
An equal amount is charged as annual depreciation over the life of the asset. The annual depreciation is calculated as follows:
Annual depreciation:
= (cost of assets - salvage value)/ Estimated useful life
Cost - 100,000
Residual value = 20,000
Estimated useful life = 10 years
Annual depreciation = (100,000- 20,000)/10 =8,000
Annual depreciation = 8,000
Accumulated Depreciation for 2 years = Annual depreciation× number of years
= 8,000× 2 = 16,000
Accumulated Depreciation for 2 years = $16,000
1. Suppose the Kenyan shilling (KS) is currently traded at KS 1.4/$.The Ethiopian Birr (EB) is traded at E B1.39/$.Ignoring transaction costs: A. Determine the KS/EB exchange rate consistent with these direct quotations
Answer:
The answer is KS 1.01/EB.
Explanation:
This is an example of a cross rate.
Cross rate refers to an exchange rate between two currencies that is calculated based on the exchange rate of each of the two currencies to a third currency.
For this question, the cross rate KS/EB will be estimated by reference the US dollar which is third currency. This can be calculated by simply dividing the KS 1.4/$ by the E B1.39/$ as follows:
KS/EB = 1.4 / 1.39 = 1.01
That is, the answer is KS 1.01/EB.
Game theory is useful for understanding oligopoly behavior because: there are so many firms in an oligopoly that all are price takers. firms must differentiate their products if they are to remain in business. firms recognize that because there are only a few firms mutual interdependence is important. without it firms would not be able to maintain cartel agreements. it allows firms to develop greater monopoly power.
Answer:
firms recognize that because there are only a few firms mutual interdependence is important.
Explanation:
Game theory is useful for understanding oligopoly behavior because firms recognize that because there are only a few firms mutual interdependence is important.
An oligopoly can be defined as a market structure comprising of a small number of firms (sellers) offering identical or similar products, wherein none can limit the significant influence of others.
Hence, under the game theory, when firms makes a decision about their business, it is expected that they consider how the other firms would react to such decisions.
James just received an $8,000 inheritance check from the estate of his deceased rich uncle. James wants to set aside enough money to pay for a trip in five years. If the trip is expected to cost $5,000, how much of the $8,000 must James deposit now if the rate of return is 12% per year in order to have the $5,000 in five years
Answer:
$2831.13
Explanation:
The computation of the present value of 5,000 in five years is shown below:-
Present Value of 5,000 in five years = Expected cost ÷ (1 + Rate of return)^Number of years
= $5,000 ÷ (1 + 12%)^5
= $
5,000 ÷ (1.12)^5
= $2831.13
Therefore for computing the present value of 5,000 in five years we simply applied the above formula.

Break-even point Currently, the unit selling price of a product is $160, the unit variable cost is $120, and the total fixed costs are $725,000. A proposal is being evaluated to increase the unit selling price to $170.
A. Compute the current break-even sales (units).
B. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units), assuming that the unit selling price is increased and all costs remain constant.
Answer:
A. 18,125 units
B. 14,500 units
Explanation:
Break -even is the level of activity where a firm neither makes a profit nor a loss.
Break-even sales (units) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit
= $725,000 ÷ ( $160 - $120)
= 18,125 units
New Break-even sales (units) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit
= $725,000 ÷ ( $170- $120)
= 14,500 units

Intra-Spect Mining Co. acquired mineral rights for $153,000,000. The mineral deposit is estimated at 90,000,000 tons. During the current year, 23,400,000 tons were mined and sold.
Required:
a. Determine the amount of depletion expense for the current year. Round the depletion rate to two decimals places.
b. Journalize the adjusting entry on December 31 to recognize the depletion expense.
Answer:
a. Determine the amount of depletion expense for the current year.
$39,780,000
b. Journalize the adjusting entry on December 31 to recognize the depletion expense.
Dr Depletion expense 39,780,000
Cr Accumulated depletion: Mine 39,780,000
Explanation:
depletion expense per ton mined = $153,000,000 / 90,000,000 = $1.70 per ton
depletion expense for current year = $1.70 x 23,400,000 = $39,780,000
Depletion expense is similar to depreciation expense since the carrying value of the asset decreases as minerals are being mined.

Using a financial calculator, the Future Value (FV) is $16,050.57
Therefore, the amount invested will amount to $16,050.57 in 6 year.
Next we then calculate the interest rate that will give us $26300 in the next four years (remainder of the 10 years)
PV = -$16,050.57
FV = $26,300
P/yr = 1
n = 4
Pmt = $0
r = ?
Using a financial calculator, the Interest rate (r) is 13.14 %
Conclusion :
Over the last 4 years to accomplish this goal the annual interest rate must be 13.14 %.

Suppose you deposit your paycheck, drawn on another bank. The total money supply in the banking system will ___________ because:
a. Assets of your bank would increase by more than the amount withdrawn from the other bank.
b. An increase in the assets of your bank by the amount of your paycheck would simply decrease the assets of another bank by the same amount.
c. Assets of the other bank would decrease by a fraction of the amount deposited at your bank.
Answer:
Option B, An increase in the assets of your bank by the amount of your paycheck would simply decrease the assets of another bank by the same amount, is correct.
Explanation:
The total money supply in the banking system will remain the “same” because it is given that paycheck is drawn from another bank. So, if a person withdraws money from another bank it implies that there is a decrease in money supply in the banking system and when the cheque is deposited in the other bank so again the money supply will increase in the banking system. However, the amount of money supply will remain the same. Therefore, option B is the right answer.
In #31, Kathryn and Jose decide to try mediation instead of arbitration. They can select one of the following, which are the typical types of mediation (select one):
Answer: e. two of the above.
Explanation:
The typical types of mediation in the options include both Facilitative and Evaluative;
Facilitative mediating is the most common and basic of mediation techniques. It involves the use of mediators who create an environment for negotiations. In other words they facilitate negotiations amongst the parties in conflict in the hopes that both parties can come to an agreement that favors the both of them and results in lasting peace. Evaluative Mediating on the other hand emulates Settlement conferences which is like a pre-trial where a Judge attempts to get both parties to settle a case before they go to court. Evaluative mediating therefore involves the use of a mediator who will act like a judge and show the parties where they are both falling short and then attempt to settle the issue they way they think a Judge would.How could managers use increased worker flexibility and diligence to increase the competitiveness of their manufacturing sites
