Under its executive stock option plan, N Corporation granted options on January 1, 2021, that permit executives to purchase 11.0 million of the company's $1 par common shares within the next eight years, but not before December 31, 2023 (the vesting date). The exercise price is the market price of the shares on the date of grant, $16 per share. The fair value of the options, estimated by an appropriate option pricing model, is $4 per option. No forfeitures are anticipated. Ignoring taxes, what is the effect on earnings in the year after the options are granted to executives? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)

Answer:

N. Corporation

There is no effect on earnings in the year after the options are granted.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of stock options granted to executives = 11.0 million

Par value of common stock = $1

Period before the vesting of interest = 8 years

Grant date = January 1, 2021

Vesting date = December 31, 2023

Exercise price on the date of grant = $16

Fair value of the options = $4 per option

Total compensation expense for the stock option = $44 million ($4 * 11 million)

b) The compensation expense is accrued starting from the vesting date and not before.  Therefore, there is no effect on the earnings in the year after the options are granted to the executives.

Petty Cash Fund Entries
Journalize the entries to record the following:
Check No. 12-375 is issued to establish a petty cash fund of $500.
The amount of cash in the petty cash fund is now $40. Check No. 12-476 is issued to replenish the fund, based on the following summary of petty cash receipts: office supplies, $212; miscellaneous selling expense, $156; miscellaneous administrative expense, $61. (Because the amount of the check to replenish the fund plus the balance in the fund do not equal $500, record the discrepancy in the cash short and over account.)

In a closed economy, saving and investment must be equal, but this is not the case in an open economy. In the following problem, you will explore how saving and investment are connected to the international flow of capital and goods in an economy. Before delving into the relationship between these various components of an economy, you will be asked to recall some relationships between aggregate variables that will be useful in your analysis.

Recall the components that makeup GDP. National income (Y) equals total expenditure on the economy's output of goods and services. Thus, where C= consumption, I= investment, G =government purchases, X=exports, M =imports, and NX= net exports.
Y= _____

Also, national saving is the income of the nation that is left after paying for _____. Therefore, national saving (S) equals:
S=_____

Rearranging the previous equation and solving for Y yields, Y= _____ Plugging this into the original equation showing the various components of GDP results in the following relationship:
S=_____

Ahsan Company makes 60,000 units per year of a part it uses in the products it manufactures. The unit product cost of this part is computed as follows: Direct materials $12.60 Direct labor 17.20 Variable manufacturing overhead 4.10 Fixed manufacturing overhead 15.00 Unit product cost $48.90 An outside supplier has offered to sell the company all of these parts it needs for $69.70 a unit. If the company accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to make the part could be used to make more units of a product that is in high demand. The additional contribution margin on this other product would be $319,600 per year. If the part were purchased from the outside supplier, all of the direct labor cost of the part would be avoided. However, $4.30 of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost being applied to the part would continue even if the part were purchased from the outside supplier. This fixed manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to the company's remaining products. How much of the unit product cost of $48.90 is relevant in the decision of whether to make or buy the part? Multiple Choice $44.60 $17.20 $69.70
