All of the following are inventoried under variable costing except: utilities cost consumed in manufacturing. raw materials used in production. direct labor. sales commissions.

Answers

Answer:

The right approach is Option d (Sales commissions).

Explanation:

Sales commission seems to be an expense for the time that is not reflected throughout inventory commodity prices. That would be the amount that could be received by a sales agent as well as a sales representative including its price of a property. The cost of products generated, credit card payments, postage charges the sales commission that you will allocate to sales workers are including variable costs.

Some other three choices are not associated with the case in question. So, option d seems to be the right choice.

Swifty Corporation sells one product and uses a perpetual inventory system. The beginning inventory consisted of 79 units that cost $19 per unit. During the current month, the company purchased 477 units at $19 each. Sales during the month totaled 355 units for $42 each. What is the cost of goods sold using the LIFO method

Answers

Answer:

COGS= $6,745

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning inventory= 79 units at $19

Purchase= 477 units at $19

Sales= 355 units

The units cost the same. In this case, it doesn't matter which method you use, the ending value will be the same.

COGS= 355*19= $6,745

It increases it, i.e., make-to-stock becomes more desirable.2. It has no impact.3. It decreases it. i.e., make-to-stock becomes less desirable.4. We cannot determine from the given information.

Answers

Answer:

Over time, consumers have less of a need for a broad product offering. How does this shift in preferences alter the desirability of make-to-stock production relative to make-to-order production?

3. It decreases it. i.e., make-to-stock becomes less desirable.

Explanation:

Given the above scenario, there will be no need for a company to produce goods that will be stored.  Instead, it will wait to receive orders before it commences production of any goods.  This is caused by the shift in preferences "consumers have less of a need for a broad product offering." This means that make-to-order will be highly prioritized while reducing or eliminating make-to-stock production facilities.

Blossom provides environmentally friendly lawn services for homeowners. Its operating costs are as follows.

Depreciation $1,400 per month
Advertising $200 per month
Insurance $3,680 per month
Weed and feed materials $13 per lawn
Direct labor $16 per lawn
Fuel $3 per lawn

Blossom charges $80 per treatment for the average single-family lawn.

Required:
Determine the company.

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point = 110 lawns & Break-even sales point = $8,800

Explanation:

Total fixed costs = Depreciation + Advertising + Insurance

Total fixed costs = 1,400 + 200 + 3,680

Total fixed costs = $5280/month

Total variable cost per unit = Weed + Direct labor + Fuel

Total variable cost per unit = 13 + 16 + 3

Total variable cost per unit = $32/lawn

Contribution margin ratio = (Sales per unit - variable cost per unit) / sales per unit

Contribution margin ratio = (80 - 32) / 80

Contribution margin ratio = 0.6

Contribution margin ratio = 60%

Break-even sales = Fixed costs / contribution margin ratio

Break-even sales = $5280 / 60%

Break-even sales = $8800

Break-even sales units = Break-even sales / sales per unit

Break-even sales units = 8800 / 80

Break-even sales units = 110 lawns

Break-even point = 110 lawns & Break-even sales point = $8,800

One-year Treasury securities yield 4.25%. The market anticipates that 1 year from now, 1-year Treasury securities will yield 6.9%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities? Calculate the yield using a geometric average.

Answers

Answer:

5.57%

Explanation:

Assuming that pure expectation theory holds, then the compounded returns of 1 year treasury security rate multiplied by the compounded return of 1 year security rate 1 year from now is equal to the compounded return of the 2 year treasury rate.

1 year treasury security rate = 4.25%

1 year treasury security rate 1 year from now = 6.9%

To solve, we have

1.0425 * 1.069 = (1 + x)²

1.1144 = (1 + x)², finding the square root of both sides

√1.1144 = 1 + x

1.0557 = 1 + x

x = 1.0557 - 1

x = 0.0557

Therefore, the yield today for 2 year treasury securities is 5.57%

Tinsel Co.'s balances in allowance for uncollectible accounts were $70,000 at the beginning of the current year and $55,000 at year end. During the year, receivables of $35,000 were written off as uncollectible. What amount should Tinsel report as uncollectible accounts expense at year end

Answers

Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

to determine the amount that Tinsel should report as bad debt expense (or uncollectible accounts expense), we must start with the beginning balance of allowance for doubtful accounts, and then we must subtract the account's ending balance and any bad debts write offs recorded during the year:

beginning account balance   $70,000

- ending account balance     ($50,000)

- write offs                              ($35,000)

total                                        ($20,000)

If income increases by $100 and consumption increases by $75, the slope of the consumption function equals _____.

Answers

Answer:

3/4

Explanation:

The marginal propensity to consume mpc, is the slope of the consumption function and it is what this question requires us to find

We have income increase to be = 100 dollars

Then consumption increase = 75 dollars

MPC = increase in consumption ,75/increase in income 100

= 75/100

= 3/4

Therefore the marginal propensity to consume also called the slope is 3/4

The long-term trend only Least-Squares Regression Model is the same as a simple linear regression with time (t) as the independent variable and our time series (Yt) as the dependent variable.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Fowler, Inc., just paid a dividend of $2.55 per share on its stock. The dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 3.9 percent per year, indefinitely. If investors require a return of 10.4 percent on this stock, what is the current price

Answers

Answer:

The current price of the stock is $40.76

Explanation:

The computation of the current price is shown below:

Current price is

= Current year dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)

= ($2.55 × (1 + 0.039) ÷ (10.4% - 3.9%)

= $2.6495 ÷ (0.104 - 0.039)

= $2.6495 ÷ 0.065

= $40.76

Hence, the current price of the stock is $40.76

A $1,000 par bond with a semi-annual coupon and 12 years to maturity is currently priced $880 and has a yield to maturity of 5.37%. What is the bonds coupon rate

Answers

Answer:

Annual Coupon rate = 0.040005 or 4.0005% rounded off to 4.00%

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = C

Total periods (n) = 12 * 2 = 24

r or YTM = 0.0537 * 6/12 = 0.02685 or 2.685%%

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

We will first calculate the value of semi coupon payment  made by the bond.

880 = C * [( 1 - (1+0.02685)^-24) / 0.02685]  + 1000 / (1+0.02685)^24

880 = C * 17.52482779  +  529.4583737

880 -  529.4583737  =  C * 17.52482779

350.5416263 / 17.52482779 = C

C = 20.0025718 rounded off to 20.00

 

The annual coupon payment will be = 20.0025718  * 2 = 40.00514361 rounded off to 40.01

Annual Coupon rate = 40.00514361  / 1000 = 0.040005 or 4.0005% rounded off to 4.00%

Equipment was purchased for $50,000. At that time, the equipment was expected to be used eight years and have a residual value of $10,000. The company uses straight-line depreciation. At the beginning of the third year, the company changed its estimated useful life to a total of six years (four years remaining) and the residual value to $8,000. What is depreciation expense in the third year?

a. $8,000.

b. $5,000.

c. $7,000.

d. $5,500.

Answers

Answer:

Annual depreciation= $8,000

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the accumulated depreciation for the first two years:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (50,000 - 10,000) / 8

Annual depreciation= $5,000

Accumulated depreciation= 5,000*2= $10,000

Now, we can calculate the new depreciation expense:

Annual depreciation= [(50,000 - 10,000) - 8,000]/4

Annual depreciation= $8,000
