Answer:
b. It is the budgeted amount used to calculate the actual costs.
Explanation:
Static budget is the budget which remains the same even if there is some changes made but the flexible budget do not remain the same.
Moreover, the static budget is the main budget that used to prepare the standard cost by considering the budgeted activity level
Therefore it is the budget in which the budgeted amount should be considered in order to determine the actual cost that helps to make the flexible budget
DSO and accounts receivable Ingraham Inc. currently has $205,000 in accounts receivable, and its days sales outstanding is 71 days. It wants to reduce its DSO to 20 days by pressuring more of its customers to pay their bills on time. If this policy is adopted, the company's average sales will fall by 15%. What will be the level of accounts receivable following the change? Assume a 365- day year.
Answer:
$49,084.51
Explanation:
days of sales outstanding (DSO) = accounts receivable / average daily sales
71 days = $205,000 / (total sales / 365 days)
total sales / 365 days = $205,000 / 71 days
total sales = ($205,000 / 71 days) x 365 days = $1,053,873.24
after the change, annual sales will decrease by 15%:
$1,053,873.24 x (1 - 15%) = $895,792.25
average sales per day = $895,792.25 / 365 = $2,454.23 per day
new DSO = accounts receivable / average sales per day
20 days = accounts receivable / $2,454.23 per day
accounts receivable = $2,454.23 per day x 20 days = $49,084.51
Common stock $10 par value 20,000 shares authorized and 10,000 shares issued, 9,000 shares outstanding $100,000 Paid-in capital in excess of par value, common stock 50,000 Retained earnings 25,000 Treasury stock 11,500 Assuming the treasury shares were all purchased at the same price, the cost per share of the treasury stock is:
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
The following data has been collected about Keller Company's stockholders' equity accounts: Common stock $10 par value 20,000 shares authorized and 10,000 shares issued, 9,000 shares outstanding $100,000 Paid-in capital in excess of par value, common stock 50,000 Retained earnings 25,000 Treasury stock 11,500 Assuming the treasury shares were all purchased at the same price, the cost per share of the treasury stock is:______
Answer:
$11.5
Explanation:
The data that was gotten from Keller company stockholders equity account include:
Amount shares in common stock is 20,000 shares
The number of issued shares is 10,000
Number of outstanding shares is 9,000
The excess paid-in capital is $100,000
The common stock is 50,000
The retained earnings is 25,000
Treasury stock is 11,500
The first step is to calculate the amount of shares that was acquired in the treasury stock
= Number of issued shares-number of outstanding shares
= 10,000-9,000
= 1,000
Therefore, the cost per share of the stock in the treasury can be calculated as follows
= Treasury stock value/amount of shares acquired
= 11,500/1,000
= 11.5
Hence the cost per share of the treasury stock is $11.5

Which of the following markets has a barrier to entry? A. There are already many fast food restaurants in the City of Buffalo. B. Stan's Garbage Company runs the only trash collection service in town. C. Crystal develops a new product and patents it. D. Gold can only be mined in certain places in the world.
Answer: C. Crystal develops a new product and patents it.
Explanation:
A Patent is one of the ways that a monopoly can be formed in an industry. A Patent is a government issued guarantee that other entities should not tamper with the product that was patented unless they get permission from the patentee to do so.
Patents in the United States usually last for 20 years and in that time only the people who patented it may use it. This is a Government enforced barrier to entry as other companies cannot make the product in question thereby creating a monopoly for the people that did patent it.
The rate established prior to the beginning of a period that uses estimated overhead and an allocation factor such as estimated direct labor, and that is used to assign overhead cost to jobs, is the:
Answer:
This is the Predetermined overhead rate
Explanation:
The predetermined overhead rate assigns a particular amount of manufacturing overhead to each direct labor or machine hour. This helps businesses allocate resources and also set pricing. This computation is usually done at the beginning of each period.
To calculate this, we divide the estimate of the manufacturing overhead cost total by the estimated number of machine hours. It is used to assign overhead cost to jobs.
If increasing the number of goods produced is one way to increase productivity what is the other way to increase productivity?
A. Raise the price of the goods
B. Decrease the resources invested
C. Increase market share
D. Lower the quality of the materials used
Answer:
Explanation:
Start with D. You might be able to make a cheaper product and increase your profit margin, but eventually the word would would get around and it may lower your productivity because the sales would decrease.
The market determines whether or not you would be able increase the market share. I suppose this answer is possible, but it would mean that you would need to have capital to do it. The market need not cooperate. I wouldn't pick C unless I had to.
How can you reduce the resources invested? That should decrease the number of objects originally need for manufacturing the poduct in the first place. Not B.
Raise the price of the goods? How can that help? That increases the profit margin, not the number of goods produced.
I don't know what the best answer is out of these 4. None of them seem appropriate.

Explanation:
The Allowance for Bad Debts account had a balance of $7,000 at the beginning of the year and $9,500 at the end of the year. During the year (including the year-end adjustment), bad debts expense of $12,800 was recognized.
Required:
Calculate the total amount of past-due accounts receivable that were written off as uncollectible during the year.
Answer:
$10,300
Explanation:
The allowance for bad debts account reports that an estimated amount of the account is going to be uncollectible. The write-offs decrease the balance if account received by the amount that is going to be uncollectible.
Write-offs = Beginning allowance + Bad debt - Ending allowance
Write-offs= $7,000 + $12,800 - $9,500
Write-offs= $10,300
The company can manufacture either two food processors per machine hour or three espresso machines per machine hour. The company's production capacity is 1,200 machine hours per month. What is the contribution margin per machine hour for food processors?
Answer:
The contribution margin per machine hour is $150.
Explanation:
Note: The missing part of the question is
Food Processor Espresso Machines
Sales price $125 $225
Variable costs $50 $150
Solution
Contribution Margin per Machine = Sales Price - Variable Cost
=$125 - $50
=$75
Contribution Margin = Contribution per Machine × Number of Machines Produced in 1 Machine Hour
= $75 * 2
= $150
Thus, the contribution margin per machine hour for food processors is $150.
The overall economic performance of developing countries is expected to outpace that of the United States over the coming years. A customer that wishes to profit from this should receive which recommendation and accompanying risk disclosures?
A.
The customer should be recommended a special situations fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume regulatory risk and market risk
B.
The customer should be recommended a specialty fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume credit risk and extension risk
C.
The customer should be recommended an emerging markets fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume political risk and exchange rate risk
D.
The customer should be recommended a sector fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume unsystematic risk and market risk
Answer: C. The customer should be recommended an emerging markets fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume political risk and exchange rate risk
Explanation:
In order to take advantage of the opportunity that presents itself from developing countries outpacing that of the US in years to come, the customer should invest in an Emerging Markets fund. This fund invests in securities from the more rapidly developing countries like China and Brazil so the customer will be poised to take advantage of the opportunities offered by this.
However, they should be wary of Exchange rate risks as their currencies are not as strong as the US dollar and can be unstable.
They also need to worry about political instability as quite a lot of developing countries do not have strong democracies and Economic decisions are influenced by political decisions a bit too much.
Jay Seago is suing the manufacturer of his car for $3.5 million because of a defect that he believes caused him to have an accident. The accident kept him out of work for a year. The company has offered him a settlement of $700,000, of which Jay would receive $600,000 after attorneys’ fees. His attorney has advised him that he has a 50% chance of winning his case. If he loses, he will incur attorneys’ fees and court costs of $75,000. If he wins, he is not guaranteed his full requested settlement. His attorney believes that there is a 50% chance he could receive the full settlement, in which case Jay would realize $2 million after his attorney takes her cut, and a 50% chance that the jury will award him a lesser amount of $1 million, of which Jay would get $500,000. Using decision tree analysis, decide whether Jay should proceed with his lawsuit against the manufacturer.
Answer:
Since the expected value is higher for not suing ($600,000), then Jay should not sue. The expected value of the best case scenario in case of suing is only $500,000 and in the expected value of the worst case scenario is -$37,500.
Explanation:
he decides to not sue = expected value $600,000
he decides to sue:
50% chance of winning
expected value
$2,000,000 x 50% x 50% = $500,000$500,000 x 50% x 50% = $125,00050% chance of losing
expected value = -$75,000 x 50% = -$37,500In theory, Texas has a dual-budget system, meaning the budget authority is shared by the governor and the legislature; however, in practice, the primary player(s) in the budget is/are
Answer:
The legislature.
Explanation:
A budget can be defined as a financial plan of estimated revenues, resources and expenses over a specific period of time in a particular country. It is usually reevaluated based on future plans and objectives periodically, typically on an annual basis.
In theory, Texas has a dual-budget system, meaning the budget authority is shared by the governor and the legislature; however, in practice, the primary player in the budget is the legislature.
In accordance with the guidelines set by the Legislative Budget Board (LBB) in Texas, all agencies in the state prepares and send a Legislative Appropriations Request (LAR) to the Legislative Budget Board (LBB) and the Governor’s Office of Budget, Planning and Policy (GOBPP).

Answer:
is useful to the IRS in assessing taxes to business entities.
Explanation:
The financial accounting standards board (FASB) is a private, non-profit organization saddled with the responsibility of establishing and maintaining standard financial accounting and reporting for general guidance of individuals such as investors, issuers and auditors.
Financial reporting can be defined as the formal communication or disclosure of financial information and statements to present and potential users such as investors and creditors.
The objective of financial reporting include all of the following to provide information that:
1. Is useful to those making investment decisions. This information would help creditors to determine whether they should lend to a client or not; or assist investors in deciding whether they should invest in a business or not.
2. Is useful to those lending out money to business entities. When investors and creditors are well furnished with financial information about an organization, they would be able to assess the amounts of cash, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows from dividends or interest.
3. Is useful to creditors in making decisions about providing resources to business entities.
In conclusion, the financial report is not useful to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in assessing taxes to business entities.
Suppose that a baseball player eligible for free agent status signs a contract with a new team that promises to pay him $100,000 more than his current team for each of the next three years. Assuming the discount rate is 6 percent, what is the maximum the current costs of moving could be and still have this investment be worthwhile?
Answer:
Maximum current cost = $267,301.19
Explanation:
The maximum current costs of his moving would be worth of the $100,000 annuity in today's dollars, that is the present value.
The present value of the annuity would be determined as follows:
PV = A × (1- (1+r)^(-n) )/ r
Annual cash flow, n- number of years, r-rate of interest
A- 100,000, r- 6%, n- 3
PV - 100,000 × (1- 1.06^(-3))/0.06
PV = $ 267,301.19
Maximum current cost = $267,301.19

Home Depot entered fiscal 2014 with a total capitalization of $27,213 million. In 2014, debt investors received interest income of $830 million. Net income to shareholders was $6,345 million. (Assume a tax rate of 35%.) Calculate the economic value added assuming its cost of capital is 10%.
Answer:
Economic value added=$4,163.20
Explanation:
Calculatation for the economic value added assuming its cost of capital is 10 percent
The first step is to find the After-tax operating income using this formula
After-tax operating income = (1 - tax rate) * Interest expense + Net income
Where,
Tax rate=35%
Interest expense =$830
Net income=$6,345
Let plug in the formula
After-tax operating income=(1 - .35) *$830 + $6,345
After-tax operating income=0.65*$830×$6,345
After-tax operating income= $539.50+$6,345
After-tax operating income=$6,884.50
The next step is to find the Economic value added using this formula
Economic value added= Ater-tax operating income - (Cost of capital * Total capitalization)
Where,
Ater-tax operating income =$6,884.50
Cost of capital =10%
Total capitalization=$27,213
Let plug in the formula
Economic value added=$6,884.50 - (.10 * $27,213)
Economic value added=$6,884.50-$2,721.3
Economic value added=$4,163.20
Therefore the Economic value added assuming its cost of capital is 10% will be $4,163.20
You often find that employees choose a health care plan without carefully considering their options.

There are several bridges along highway 280 which are free to ride on. This bridge was built and is being maintained by the government... not the "free" market. Let's think about why that is the case... The economic logic of government ownership and having a marginal price of 0 (that is, it is free to cross the bridge) is:
Answer:
The bridge 's owner has a natural monopoly, and the marginal production cost (letting another car drive through it) is close to nil.
Explanation:
Since building several bridges to compete is inefficient, but building one bridge at a lower average cost to customers would be effective. If the private monopolist builds the bridge it can charge customers exceptionally high prices.
There is a high fixed cost involved with constructing a bridge. Hence constructing a bridge is a mere privilege. Furthermore, there is no extra cost to allow another car to cross the bridge. It means that the marginal cost is zero or closer.

A stock has a beta of 1.29 and an expected return of 11.57 percent. If the risk-free rate is 4.4 percent, what is the stock's reward-to-risk ratio
Answer:
5.56%
Explanation:
the reward to risk ratio of this stock is:
reward to risk = (expected return - risk free rate) / beta
reward to risk = (11.57% - 4.4%) / 1.29 = 5.56%
The reward to risk ratio shows the investors how much extra money they should expect to earn for every dollar that they invest in a certain stock due to the stock's risk. A stock with a beta of 1 only carries the market risk, but since this stock's beta is 1.29, its risk is higher.

The current zero-coupon yield curve for risk-free bonds is as follows: Maturity (years) 1 2 3 4 5 YTM 5.05 % 5.49 % 5.78 % 5.93 % 6.09 % What is the price per $ 100 face value of a four-year, zero-coupon, risk-free bond?
Answer:
The answer is $79.42
Explanation:
Zero-coupon bonds does not make any periodic payments of interest. It pays both the interest and the face value at maturity.
N(Number of periods) = 4 years
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 5.93 percent
PV(present value or market price) = ?
PMT( coupon payment) = 0
FV( Future value or par value) = $100
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 4; I/Y = 5.93; PMT = 0; FV= $100; CPT PV= -79.42
Therefore, the market price of the bond is $79.42

The company also had notes payable of $850,000. These notes carried an interest rate of 5 percent. Depreciation was $123,000. The tax rate was 23 percent. a. What was the company’s net income? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 1,234,567.) b. What was the company’s operating cash flow? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 1,234,567.)
Answer:
Net income= $139,755
Operating cash flow= $346,835
Explanation:
Senbet discount tire company has a gross sale of $1.24 million
The cost of goods sold is $593,000
The selling expense is $246,000
The company has a note payable of $850,000 with an interest rate of 5%
Depreciation is $123,000
Tax rate is 23%
(a) Inorder to calculate the tax expense the first step is to find the interest
Interest= debt×interest rate
= $850,000×5/100
= 850,000×0.05
= 42,500
Therefore, the net income can be calculated as follows
= (sales-cost of goods sold-selling expense-depreciation-interest)(1-tax rate)
=( $593,000-$246,000-$123,000-42,500)(1-0.23)
= 181,500×0.77
= $139,755
(b) Inorder to calculate the operating cash flow the first step is to find the tax expense
Tax expense= (gross sales-cost of goods sold-selling expense-depreciation-interest)× tax
($1,240,000-$593,000-$246,000-$123,000-42,500)×0.23
= $235,500×0.23
= $54,165
Therefore, the operating cash flow can be calculated as follows
= gross sales-cost of goods sold-selling expense-depreciation-tax expense+depreciation
=$1,240,000-$593,000-$246,000-$123,000-$54,165+$123,000
= $346,835
Hence the net income is $139,755 and the operating cash flow is $346,835
A company incurs $2,700,000 of overhead each year in three departments: Ordering and Receiving, Mixing,?
and Testing. The company prepares 2,000 purchase orders, works 50,000 mixing hours, and performs 1,500 tests per year in producing 200,000 drums of Goo and 600,000 drums of Slime. The following data are available:
Department Expected use of Driver Cost
Ordering and Receiving 2,000 $800,000
Mixing 50,000 1,000,000
Testing 1,500 900,000
Production information for Slime is as follows:
Expected use of Driver
Ordering and Receiving 1,600
Mixing 30,000
Testing 1,000
Compute the amount of overhead assigned to Slime.
a) $1,350,000
b) $2,025,000
c) $1,645,234d) $1,840,000
Answer:
Total allocated overhead= $1,840,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Department Expected use of Driver Cost
Ordering and Receiving 2,000 $800,000
Mixing 50,000 1,000,000
Testing 1,500 900,000
Production information for Slime is as follows:
Expected use of Driver
Ordering and Receiving 1,600
Mixing 30,000
Testing 1,000
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each activity:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Ordering and Receiving= 800,000/2,000= $400 per order
Mixing= 1,000,000/50,000= $20 per mixing hour
Testing= 900,000/1,500 = $600 per test
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Ordering and Receiving= 400*1,600= 640,000
Mixing=20*30,000= 600,000
Testing= 600*1,000= 600,000
Total allocated overhead= $1,840,000
Which of the following are restrictive covenants often used to protect the firm’s bond value and bondholder wealth? Check all that apply. Provisions that require firing the firm’s CEO whenever the firm’s bond price decreases by more than 15% Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels Provisions that require issuing new debt securities whenever interest rates drop below 5%
Answer:
1. Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels.
2. Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels.
Explanation:
A bond refers to a fixed income instrument that signifies the indebtedness of the borrower to the bond issuer (investor or creditor). Basically, they are loans that are given to government or large corporations.
This simply means that, when a bondholder or creditor purchases a bond, an agreed amount of money is being borrowed to the bond issuer as a loan. As a result of the loan being borrowed, the bond issuer is required to pay an interest with a return of principal at maturity to the bondholder (investor or creditor).
A bond covenant can be defined as a standard and legally binding agreement between an investor or creditor (bondholder) and the issuer of a bond (bond issuer) in order to protect their respective interests. The bond covenant is classified into two (2) categories;
1. Positive or affirmative covenants: which states certain requirements that must be met by the bond issuer.
2. Negative or restrictive covenants: which states certain actions that are forbidden to the bond issuer.
The following are restrictive covenants often used to protect the firm’s bond value and bondholder wealth;
1. Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels.
2. Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels.
The restrictive covenants are written directly in the trust indenture or bond deed. Also note, the more the restrictive covenants that exists in a bond, the lower its interest rate because it makes the bond appear safer.
Matthews Fender, which uses a standard cost system, manufactured 20 comma 000 boat fenders during 2018, using 143 comma 000 square feet of extruded vinyl purchased at $ 1.30 per square foot. Production required 400 direct labor hours that cost $ 16.00 per hour. The direct materials standard was seven square feet of vinyl per fender, at a standard cost of $ 1.35 per square foot. The labor standard was 0.028 direct labor hour per fender, at a standard cost of $ 15.00 per hour. Complete the costs and efficiency variances for Direct materials and direct labor. Does the pattern of variances suggest Pro Fender's managers have been making trade-offs? Explain.
