Answer:
A). Dependent demand is directly related to the demand of other stock-keeping units (SKUs) and can be calculated without needing to be forecasted.
Explanation:
The first statement asserts a true claim as it correctly states that 'dependent demand is promptly associated to the demand of further SKUs and therefore, it can be measured without requiring any prediction.' Dependent demand is characterized as a demand that is reliant on the other products' demand. This is why such demands are directly influenced by a rise or fall in the other products' demand and this is the reason due to which dependent demand can be calculated easily without any prediction because it will observe a similar impact as its associated product would face. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
It is a statement that describes the desired long-term results of your company's efforts. *
The answer is your mission statement
A mission statement states each goal the company has with their organization and what they wanna do
Superior Company has provided you with the following information before any year-end adjustments: Net credit sales are $131,750. Historical percentage of credit losses is 3%. Allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance of $400. Accounts receivables ending balance is $43,500. What is the estimated bad debt expense using the percentage of credit sales method
Answer:
$3,553
Explanation:
Credit losses = Net credit sales × Historical percentage of credit losses
= $131,750 × 3%
= $3,953
Allowance for doubtful account has a credit balance of $400
The estimated bad debt expense can therefore be calculated as:
Bad debt expense = Credit losses - Allowance for doubtful accounts credit balance
= $3,953 - $400
= $3,553
Hence, the estimated bad debt expense using the percentage of credit sales method is $3,553

The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class life category. Assume a tax rate of 34 percent and a discount rate of 11 percent. If the lathe can be sold for $5,100 at the end of year 3, what is the after-tax salvage value
Answer:
$4,650.89
Explanation:
Year Depreciation rate Depreciation Book Value
(51000*Rate)
1 33.33% $16,998.30 $34,001.70
2 44.45% $22,669.50 $11,332.20

Hudson Corporation is considering three options for managing its data warehouse: continuing with its own staff, hiring an outside vendor to do the managing (referred to as outsourcing), or using a combination of its own staff and an outside vendor. The cost of the operation depends on future demand. The annual cost of each option (in thousands of dollars) depends on demand as follows:
Demand
Staffing Options High Medium Low
Own staff 650 650 600
Outside vendor 900 600 300
Combination 800 650 500
Required:
a. If the demand probabilities are 0.2, 0.5, and 0.3, which decision alternative will minimize the expected cost of the data processing operation?
b. Construct a risk profile for the optimal decision in part (a).
Answer:
Explanation:
a. If the demand probabilities are 0.2, 0.5, and 0.3, which decision alternative will minimize the expected cost of the data processing operation?
Expected value own staff = 0.2(650 + 0.5(650) + 0.3(300) = 635
EV outside vendor = 0.2(900) + 0.5(600) + 0.3(300) = 570
EV combination = 0.2(800) + 0.5(650) + 0.3(500) = 635
Therefore, the correct answer is outside vendor since it has the minimum expected value.
b. Construct a risk profile for the optimal decision in part (a)
Demand Cost Probability
Low. 300000. 0.3
Medium. 600000. 0.5
High 900000. 0.2
The required probability is 0.2
Asian Lamp Company manufactures lamps. The estimated number of lamp sales for the last three months for the current year are as follows: Month Sales October 10,000 November 14,000 December 13,000 Finished goods inventory at the end of September was 3,000 units. Ending finished goods inventory is budgeted to equal 25 percent of the next month's sales. Asian Lamp expects to sell the lamps for $25 each. January sales is projected at 16,000 lamps. How many lamps should be produced in October
Answer:
13,750 lamps
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How many lamps should be produced in October
Numbers of lamps=(13,000 × 0.25) + 14,000 − (14,000 × 0.25)
Numbers of lamps=3,250+14,000-3,500
Numbers of lamps= 13,750 lamps
Therefore The numbers of lamps that lamps should be produced in October is 13,750 lamps
You own a small manufacturing business that produces widgets. You have spent $150,000 acquiring the fixed assets you need to produce widgets. Each widget costs you $2 to make and they sell for $15 each, so your variable cost is 13.3% of the overall revenue. At your current level of operating leverage, how many widgets must you sell to break even
Answer:
11,538 units
Explanation:
Given that:
Fixed assets = $150,000
Variable cost = $2
Sales price = $15
Break even point = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin
Contribution margin = Sales per unit - Variable cost per unit = $15 - $2 = $13
Break even point (Sales) = $150,000 ÷ $13 = 11,538 units
Therefore, 11,538 widgets must be sold to break even.

They periodically have partners' meeting where they report to each other on the financial status of their areas and discuss potential new business. Jason's area of business has recently become extremely profitable, and Ellen and Frank are so happy with the new financials that they have not closely questioned Jason about the details especially since the partners continue to receive an equal share of the business profits each of them brings in. Ellen and Frank are shocked when the FBI comes to the office one Friday afternoon and arrest Jason. The FBI also informs Ellen and Frank that the office equipment is being seized and the partnership bank accounts have been frozen. Which of the following is a correct statement of the law?
a. Both Ellen and Frank can face criminal prosecution because the business was operated as a partnership.
b. Ellen and Frank will not be liable for Frank's conduct because Frank independently operated his area of the business.
c. Ellen and Frank should immediately file a Notice of Dissociation so that they will not be liable for Jason's conduct.
d. By not closely questioning Jason about his area of the business, Ellen and Frank will be seen to have ratified Jason's partnership operations.
Answer:
d. By not closely questioning Jason about his area of the business, Ellen and Frank will be seen to have ratified Jason's partnership operations.
Explanation:
Because Ellen and frank are partners with Jason, they would also both be liable for Franks conduct because the three of them are business partners and have shared profits equally in Jasons area of the business without paying attention to details about the source of the profit. This would make it seem like they were in agreement and accomplices with Jason.

If the selling price of the product is increased by 10 percent, what is the dollar increase in net profit at full capacity if the income tax rate is 35 percent of gross earnings?
Answer:
a. Breakeven point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin
Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable costs per unit
Variable cost per unit = 2,000,000 / (5,000 * 365 days)
= $1.10
Contribution margin = 1.75 - 1.10
= $0.65
Breakeven point = 700,000 / 0.65
= 1,076,923 kg
Fixed cost per kilogram at those units is:
= 700,000 / 1,076,923
= $0.65
_________________________________________________________
b. Net profit at original prices:
= (Contribution margin * units produced) - Fixed costs
= (0.65 * 5,000 * 365) - 700,000
= $486,250
Less taxes:
= 486,250 * (1 - 35%)
= $316,062.50
Net profit after price increase:
New selling price = 1.75 * 1.1
= $1.93
Net profit = ((Selling price - Variable cost) * units sold) - fixed cost
= ( (1.93 - 1.10) * 5,000 * 365) - 700,000
= $814,750
After tax:
= 814,750 * (1 - 35%)
= $529,587.50
Dollar increase:
= 529,587.50 - 316,062.50
= $213,525
Which of the following two ARMs is likely to be priced higher, that is, offered with a higher initial interest rate?
a. ARM A has a margin of 3 percent and is tied to a three-year index with payments adjustable every two years; payments cannot increase by more than 10 percent from the preceding period; the term is 30 years.
b. ARM B has a margin of 3 percent and is tied to a one-year index with payments to be adjusted each year; payments cannot increase by more than 10 percent from the preceding period; the term is 30 years.
Answer: ARM A
Explanation:
The issuers of Adjustable-Rate Mortgage adjust its rate based on a certain index in the market, the purpose of which is to reflect the current cost being incurred by the issuer for loaning out money.
Both these mortgages are similar in everything except the index period. ARM A has a longer index period which means that it is expose to more forward rates and as the yield curve is generally upward trending(interest rates are higher in future), ARM A will be offered at a higher interest rate.
Part U67 is used in one of Broce Corporation's products. The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the 15,400 units of the part that are needed every year.
Per Unit
Direct materials $2.30
Direct labor $3.30
Variable overhead $6.10
Supervisor's salary $6.60
Depreciation of special equipment $7.70
Allocated general overhead $4.80
An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $27.00 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $21,400 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided.
Required:
a. Prepare a report that shows the financial impact of buying part U67 from the supplier rather than continuing to make it inside the company.
b. Which alternative should the company choose?
Answer:
Broce Corporation
a. The Financial Impact of Buying Part U67 is as follows:
Differential Analysis:
Cost of buying from supplier = $415,800 (15,400 * $27)
Avoidable cost of making = 303,220
Differential cost for buying = $112,500
b. The company should choose to continue to produce the part internally.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Production units for the year = 15,400
Per Unit Costs:
Direct materials $2.30
Direct labor $3.30
Variable overhead $6.10
Total variable costs $11.70
Supervisor's salary $6.60
Depreciation of special equipment $7.70
Allocated general overhead $4.80
Total fixed costs $19.10
Total costs $30.80
Outside supplier's offer per unit = $27
Avoidable costs:
Direct materials $2.30
Direct labor $3.30
Variable overhead $6.10
Supervisor's salary $6.60
Total avoidable variable costs $18.30 * 15,400 = $281,820
General overhead costs 21,400
Total avoidable costs = $303,220
Differential Analysis:
Cost of buying from supplier = $415,800 (15,400 * $27)
Avoidable cost of making = 303,220
Differential cost for buying = $112,500
