Answer:
c. There is no standard distance of indentation.
Explanation:
The correct statement about indentation in formal reports is, " There is no standard distance of indentation."
The above information is accurate in the sense that when formatting a formal report, indenting paragraphs can be one-half inch. However, another standard method is to insert a blank line between paragraphs, thereby indenting the paragraphs will not be necessary.
Also, in some cases, indentation size dependent on the font size. For example, a formal report of 12-pt font requires an indentation of about 12 points.

A company just starting business made the following four inventory purchases in June: June 1 150 units $ 390 June 10 200 units 585 June 15 200 units 630 June 28 150 units 495 $2,100 A physical count of merchandise inventory on June 30 reveals that there are 200 units on hand. Using the average-cost method, the amount allocated to the ending inventory on June 30 is
Answer:
Ending inventory cost= $599
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
June 1 150 units $ 390 (2.6)
June 10 200 units 585 (2.93)
June 15 200 units 630 (3.15)
June 28 150 units 495 (3.3)
Ending inventory in units= 200
To calculate the ending inventory, first, we need to calculate the average price:
Average price= (2.6 + 2.93 + 3.15 + 3.3) / 4= $2.995
Now, the ending inventory:
Ending inventory= 2.995*200
Ending inventory= $599
The average variable costs of a company are equal to $20 per unit produced at its current level of output in the short run. Its average fixed costs are equal to $30 per unit produced. The total costs at this output level are equal to $2,500.
Required:
a. What is the company’s current output level?
b. What are the total variable costs at this output level?
c. What are the total fixed costs?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the number of units produced:
Number of units= total cost/ average unitary cost
Number of units= 2,500 / (20 + 30)
Number of units= 50 units
Now, the total variable cost:
Total variable cost= 50*20
Total variable cost= $1,000
Finally, the fixed costs:
Fixed cost= 50*30
Fixed cost= $1,500
Robert Company, which allocates overhead to production on the basis of machine hours, reported the following data for the period just ended:
Actual units produced: 12,000
Actual variable overhead incurred: $77,770
Actual machine hours worked: 18,800
Standard variable overhead cost per machine hour: $4.50
Robert estimates that it takes 1.5 hours to manufacture a completed unit.
Required:
Compute all standards & variances. Prepare all journal entries using standard costing.
Answer:
Variable overhead rate variance = Actual Variable overhead incurred - Actual Hours of Input, at Standard Rate
Variable overhead rate variance = ($4.5*18800 - $77,700)
Variable overhead rate variance = $6,900 Favorable
Variable overhead efficiency variance = Actual Hours of Input, at Standard Rate - Standard Hours allowed for Actual Output at Standard Rate
Variable overhead efficiency variance = (12000*1.5 - $18,800)*$4.5 =
Variable overhead efficiency variance = $3,600 Unfavorable
Variable overhead cost variance = Actual Variable overhead incurred - Standard Hours allowed for Actual Output at Standard Rate
Variable overhead cost variance = (12000*1.5*$4.5) - $77,700
Variable overhead cost variance = $3,300 Favorable
As a policy option for regulating natural monopoly, average (total) cost pricing is attractive because Select one: a. the resulting output exceeds that which would occur in a perfectly competitive industry. b. the losses that occur are a sign that consumers are not harmed by the firm's exercise of market power. c. it ensures productive efficiency. d. the regulated firm will always break even.
Answer: c. it ensures productive efficiency.
Explanation:
The average cost pricing is used by the government in order to control the price that may be charged by the monopolist.
With the average cost pricing, monopolists are forced to reduce the price that twhy charge for a product to a point whereby the average total cost of the firm and the market demand curve will intersect.
This is vital as it brings about productive efficiency, increase production and also the reduction in the price of a good.
Therefore, the correct option is C "it ensures productive efficiency".
Irene has made Sara an offer on the purchase of a capital asset. Irene will pay (1) $200,000 cash or (2) $50,000 cash and a 6% installment note for $150,000 guaranteed by City Bank of New York. If Sara sells for $200,000 cash, she will invest the after-tax proceeds in certificates of deposit yielding 6% interest. Sara’s cost of the asset is $25,000. Why would Sara prefer the installment sale?
Answer:
Irene would prefer the instalment sale because she can defer the payment of tax until a future date. On the other hand, if she accept the cash sale, she would have to pay the tax immediately. The amount invested in certificate of deposit would be after tax.
Thus the value of an instalment payment would be greater than the value of a cash payment
Explanation:
Splish Company purchased a computer for $9,920 on January 1, 2019. Straight-line depreciation is used, based on a 5-year life and a $1,240 salvage value. On January 1, 2021, the estimates are revised. Splish now feels the computer will be used until December 31, 2022, when it can be sold for $620. Compute the 2021 depreciation. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.) Depreciation expense, 2021 g
Answer:
$2914
Explanation:
The following steps would be taken to determine the answer
1. Calculate depreciation expense given the initial information
2. calculate the accumulated depreciation by the second year. Accumulated depreciation is sum of depreciation expense
3. subtract the accumulated depreciation from the cost price of the asset. This would give the book value
4. calculate the depreciation expense using the new information and the book value
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($9,920 - $1240) / 5 = $1736
Accumulated depreciation = 1736 x 2 = $3472
Book value at the beginning of 2021 = 9920 - 3472 = $6448
Depreciation expense in 2021 = (6448 - 620) / 2 = $2914

A. Laurie recognize income in the amount of his discharge of indebtedness; $60,000.
B. Laurie has a gain on the transfer and must recognize income of $40,000.
C. Laurie has $40,000 of income; a gain of $30,000 on the transfer and discharge of indebtedness of $10,000.
D. Both (a) and (b).
E. None of the above.
Answer:
D. Both a and b.
Explanation:
Laurie has land of $60,000 as mortgage. Her basis in the land is $20,000 which means she can recognize the income of $40,000 as a gain on transfer. The fair market value of land is $50,000, the amount of discharge of indebtness is $60,000 which is the amount of mortgage.
A government had the following transfers reported in its governmental funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances: (1) a transfer from the General Fund to a debt service fund in the amount of $1,100,000; and (2) a transfer from the General Fund to a special revenue fund in the amount of $500,000. The amount that would be shown as a transfer out in the governmental activities column in the Statement of Activities would be: $0. $500,000. $1,100,000. $1,600,000.
Answer:
The amount that would be shown as a transfer out in the governmental activities column in the Statement of Activities would be:
= $0.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Transfer from the General Fund to a debt service fund = $1,100,000
Transfer from the General Fund to a special revenue fund = $500,000
Transfer out = $0
b) The transfers of $1,100,000 to the Debt Service Fund and $500,000 to the Special Revenue Fund are Internal Service funds involving governmental activities. They are unlike enterprise funds that reach the control of the government's internal services. In this case, therefore, there is no transfer out, as the transfers were within or internal.
A company had credit sales of $46,000 and cash sales of $18,000 during the month of May. Also during May, the company paid wages of $16,000 and utilities of $5800. It also received payments from customers on account totaling $15,800. At the beginning of May, the company had a cash balance of $25,000. What is the company's cash balance at the end of May
Answer:
the cash balance at the end of May is $37,000
Explanation:
The computation of the cash balance at the end of May is shown below:
= Opening cash balance + cash sales + received payment - paid wages - utilities
= $25,000 + $18,000 + $15,800 - $16,000 - $5,800
= $37,000
Hence, the cash balance at the end of May is $37,000
We simply applied the above formula to determine the cash balance at the end of May

Answer:
$197,500
Explanation:
Calculation for July cash collections
Cash collection = $ 190,000 x 25 % + $ 200,000 x 75 %
= $197,500
The total amount of cash expected to be collected from customers in July is $197,500.
Santa Fe Corporation manufactured inventory in the United States and sold the inventory to customers in Mexico. Gross profit from the sale of the inventory was $200,000. Title to the inventory passed FOB: shipping point. How much of the gross profit is treated as foreign source income for purposes of computing the corporation's foreign tax credit in the current year
Answer: $0
Explanation:
None of this income should be treated as foreign source income as they are all U.S. based/ sourced income.
FOB shipping point means that the seller takes responsibility of the goods as soon as the goods are shipped. This is essentially saying that the Santa Fe Corporation should recognize the sale as soon as they ship the goods.
The goods were shipped in the United States so the sale should be recognized as having happened in the United States which means that it is a U.S. sourced income.
You are the manager of a local bank. Due to unstable financial conditions, savers are worried that your bank may fail. When they show up in large numbers to withdraw their savings, you find that you do not have enough cash to meet the obligations. Where can you turn for a loan if no other bank will lend to you? The stock market The bond markets The discount window The market for overnight loans
Answer:
The discount window
Explanation:
As we can see that there is a liquidity problem for the bank as it has not enough funds to payoff back to the depositors. Also No other bank is ready to lend.
The discount window would be the monetary policy instrument that controlled by the central bank in which it permits the institutions that they are eligible for borrow the money so that they could meet their shortage and this money would be lend for short term duration by the central bank
Therefore it is a discount window

Tamarisk, Inc. purchased a delivery truck for $29,200 on January 1, 2020. The truck has an expected salvage value of $2,200, and is expected to be driven 100,000 miles over its estimated useful life of 8 years. Actual miles driven were 16,100 in 2020 and 12,800 in 2021.
1. Calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.
2. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double- declining-balance method.
3. Prepare the journal entry to record 2020 depreciation.
4. Assume that Marigold uses the straight-line method. Show how the truck would be reported in the December 31, 2020, balance sheet.
Answer:
1. Depreciation expense per mile = $0.27 per mile
2-1. The straight-line method
We have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = $3,375
Depreciation expense for 2021 = $3,375
2-2. Units-of-activity method
We have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = $4,347
Depreciation expense for 2021 = $3,456
2-3. The double-declining-balance method
We have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = $7,300
Depreciation expense for 2021 = $5,475
3. See the journal entries below.
4. Net book value = $25,825
Explanation:
1. Calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.
Depreciation expense per mile = (Purchase price delivery truck - Expected salvage value) / Expected driven miles = ($29,200 - $2,200) / 100,000 = $0.27 per mile
2. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double- declining-balance method.
2-1. The straight-line method
Annual depreciation expense = (Purchase price of the delivery truck - Expected salvage value) / Estimated useful life = ($29,200 - $2,200) / 8 = $3,375
Therefore, we have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = Annual depreciation expense = $3,375
Depreciation expense for 2021 = Annual depreciation expense = $3,375
2-2. Units-of-activity method
Depreciable amount = Purchase price of the delivery truck - Expected salvage value = $29,200 - $2,200 = $27,000
Therefore, we have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = Depreciable amount * (Actual miles driven in 2020 / Expected driven miles) = $27,000 * (16,100 / 100,000) = $4,347
Depreciation expense for 2021 = Depreciable amount * (Actual miles driven in 2021 / Expected driven miles) = $27,000 * (12,800 / 100,000) = $3,456
2-3. The double-declining-balance method
Straight-line method depreciation rate = 1 / Estimated useful life = 1 / 8 = 0.1250, or 12.50%
Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = Straight-line method depreciation rate * 2 = 12.50% * 2 = 25%
Therefore, we have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = Purchase price of the delivery truck * Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = $29,200 * 25% = $7,300
Depreciation expense for 2021 = (Purchase price of the delivery truck - Depreciation expense for 2020) * Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = ($29,200 - $7,300) * 25% = $5,475
3. Prepare the journal entry to record 2020 depreciation.
3-1. The straight-line method

A quality analyst wants to construct a control chart for determining whether three machines, all producing the same product, are in control with regard to a particular quality variable. Accordingly, he sampled four units of output from each machine, with the following results.
Machine 1 Measirement 17 15 15 17
Machine 2 Measurement 16 25 18 25
Machine 3 Measurement 23 24 23 22
What are the Mean chart three-sigma upper and lower control limits?
a. 22 and 18
b. 23.16 and 16.84
c. 22.29 and 16.71
d. 23.5 and 16.5
e. 24 and 16
Answer:
b. 23.16 and 16.84
Explanation:
Mean (X-bar) = Sum of observations / No of observations
Range (R) = Highest observation - Lowest observation
Machine 1
Mean (X-bar) = (17 + 15 + 15 + 17) / 4
Mean (X-bar) = 16
Range (R) = (17 - 15)
Range (R) = 2
Machine 2
Mean (X-bar) = (16 + 25 + 18 + 25) / 4
Mean (X-bar) = 21
Range (R) = (25 - 16)
Range (R) = 9
Machine 3
Mean (X-bar) = (23 + 24 + 23 + 22) / 4
Mean (X-bar) = 23
Range (R) = (24 - 22)
Range (R) = 2
Mean of means (X-double bar) = Sum of X-bar / Number of samples = (16 + 21 + 23) / 3 = 20
Mean of ranges (R-bar) = Sum of R / Number of samples = (2 + 9 + 2) / 3 = 4.33
From table of constants for calculating the 3-sigma upper and lower control limits, For n = 4, A2 = 0.729
UCL = X-double bar + (A2 x R-bar)
UCL = 20 + (0.729 x 4.33)
UCL = 23.1566
UCL = 23.16
LCL = X-double bar - (A2 x R-bar)
LCL = 20 - (0.729 x 4.33)
LCL = 16.8434
LCL = 16.84
The standard cost of product 5252 includes 1.90 hours of direct labor at $17.40 per hour. The predetermined overhead rate is $22.00 per direct labor hour. During July, the company incurred 4,000 hours of direct labor at an average rate of $17.70 per hour and $82,200 of manufacturing overhead costs. It produced 2,000 units. (a) Compute the total, price, and quantity variances for labor.
Answer and Explanation:
a, The computation is shown below:
Computation of labor variances:
Total Labor variance = Standard Labor cost - Actual Labor cost
= {(2000 × 1.90 × $17.40) - (4000 × $17.70)
= $66,120 - $70,800
= $4,680 Unfavorable
Labor price variance = (Standard price - actual price) × actual labor hours
= ($17.40 - $17.70) × 4,000
= $1,200 Unfavorable
And,
Labor quantity variance = (Standard hours - actual hours) × standard rate per hour
= {(2,000 × 1.90) - 4,000) × $17.40
= $3,480 Unfavorable

Purvell Corporation has just acquired a new machine with the following characteristics (Ignore income taxes.): Cost of the equipment $ 50,000 Annual cash savings $ 15,000 Life of the machine 8 years The company uses straight-line depreciation and a $5,000 salvage value. Assume cash flows occur uniformly throughout a year except for the initial investment and the salvage at the end of the project. The simple rate of return would be closest to:
Answer:
18.75%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The simple rate of return would be closest to:
First step is to calculate the Depreciation using this formula
Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/ life
Let plug in the formula
Depreciation= ($50,000-$5000)/8 years
Depreciation=$40,000/8
Depreciation=$5,625
Second step is to calculate the annual net cash savings:
Annual cash savings $15,000
Less: Depreciation ($5,625)
(45,000/8 = $5,625)
Annual net cash savings $ 9,375
($15,000-$5,625)
Now let calculate the Simple rate of return
Using this formula
Simple rate of return = Annual net cash savings / Initial investment
Let plug in the formula
Simple rate of return= $9,375/$50,000
Simple rate of return= 18.75%
Therefore The simple rate of return would be closest to:18.75%
The following labor standards have been established for a particular product: Standard labor-hours per unit of output 9.4 hours Standard labor rate $ 13.20 per hour The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual hours worked 7,200 hours Actual total labor cost $ 92,160 Actual output 1,050 units What is the labor efficiency variance for the month
Answer:
the labor efficiency variance is $35,244 favorable
Explanation:
The computation of the labor efficiency variance is shown below:
As we know that
Efficiency Variance is
= Standard rate × (Standard hours - Actual Hours)
= $13.20 × (9.4 ×1,050 units - 7,200 hours)
= $13.20 × (9,870 hours - 7,200 hours)
= $35,244 favorable
hence, the labor efficiency variance is $35,244 favorable
g Projects with different lives: Your firm is deciding whether to purchase a high-quality printer for your office or one of lesser quality. The high-quality printer costs $45,000 and should last four years. The lesser quality printer costs $35,000 and should last three years. If the cost of capital for the firm is 14 percent, then what is the equivalent annual cost for the best choice for the firm
Answer:
The lesser quality machine should be purchased because it has a lower equivalent annual cost of $15,075.60
Explanation:
The equivalent annual cost is the present value of the printer machine divided by the present value annuity factor.
Annuity factor for n years = 1- (1+r)^(-n)/r
Annuity factor for four years = (1- 1.14^-4)/0.14 =2.9137
Annuity factor for three years =(1- 1.14^-3)/0.14= 2.3216
Printer Equivalent annual cost of printer
High quality 45,000/2.9137 15,444.22
Lesser quality 35,000/2.3216 15,075.60
The lesser quality machine should be purchased because it has a lower equivalent annual cost of $15,075.60
Milton Friedman and Edmund Phelps argued in the late 1960s that in the long run the Phillips curve is a. downward-sloping, which implies that monetary and fiscal policies can influence the level of unemployment in the long run. b. downward-sloping, which implies that monetary and fiscal policies cannot influence the rate of inflation in the long run. c. vertical, which implies that monetary and fiscal policies cannot influence the level of unemployment in the long run. d. vertical, which implies that monetary and fiscal policies cannot influence the rate of inflation in the long run
Answer: c. vertical, which implies that monetary and fiscal policies cannot influence the level of unemployment in the long run.
Explanation:
The Phillip Curve is used to show that unemployment and inflation have an inverse relationship such that when inflation is increasing, unemployment is decreasing. Fiscal and monetary policies can be used to increase or decrease inflation and unemployment.
In the long run however, the Philips Curve is vertical which means that unemployment will no longer be affected by fiscal and monetary policies that aim to impart inflation because the economy will be at the natural rate of unemployment.

Explanation:
Jonathan has a debt of $3,000 that needs to be repaid with 3 annual equal principal repayments with interest on the outstanding balance. The debt has an annual effective interest rate of 8%. In order to match his payment obligations exactly, Jonathan decides to purchase the following zero coupon bonds. Time to Maturity Par Value 1 year $1,000 2 years $ 800 3 years $ 900 Calculate the number of units of the 3-year bond Jonathan should buy, assuming fractional purchase is possible
Answer:
Jonathan
The number of units of the 3-year bond that Jonathan should buy is:
3.88 or 3 and 22/25 bonds.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Present value of debt = $3,000
Annual effective interest rate = 8%
Total future value of the debt with interest = $3,492.30
Equal annual repayment of the debt = $1,164.10 ($3,492.30/3)
Number of 3-year bond that Jonathan should buy = $3,492.30/$900 = 3.88 or 3 and 22/25 bonds
Time to Maturity Par Value
1 year $1,000
2 years $ 800
3 years $ 900
From an online calculator, the total amount to be paid with interest is $3,492.30:
N (# of periods) 3
I/Y (Interest per year) 8
PV (Present Value) 3000
FV (Future Value) 0
Results
PMT = $1,164.10
Sum of all periodic payments $3,492.30
Total Interest $492.30
Answer:
1.2
Explanation:
Given that we are making 3 Equal Principle Payments on a loan of $3000, the principle that we will repay each year will be [tex]\frac{3000}{3} = $1000[/tex].
First Year:
The interest that we will need to repay during the first year will be 3000*.08 which will be $240 dollars of interest, so we will be paying a total of 1000 + 240, or $1240 for the first year reducing the amount due to $2000.
Second Year:
The interest that we will need to repay during the second year will be 2000*.08 which will be $160 of interest, so we will be paying a total of 1000 + 160, or $1160 which will reduce the amount due $1000.
Third Year:
This is the year that we care for. We have a total interest amount of $80, so we will be paying a total of $1080 for the third year.
Given that the par value of the Zero Coupon bond for the third year is $900, we will need [tex]\frac{1080}{900} = 1.2[/tex] coupons for the final year, giving us our answer of 1.2 3-year bonds that Jonathan should buy.
