At the beginning of 20X1, a company issues 100,000 shares of 4%, $10 par value, cumulative preferred stock. All remaining shares outstanding are common stock. The company does not pay any dividends in 20X1, but pays dividends of $100,000 at the end of 20X2. How much of the dividend will be paid to common stockholders in 20X2?
a. $20,000.
B. $100,000.
C. $80,000.
D. $60,000.
Answer:
a. $20,000.
Explanation:
The computation of the dividend that will be paid to common stockholders in 20X2 is shown below:
= $100,000 - ($100,000 × 10 × 4% × 2 years)
= $100,000 - $80,000
= $20,000
Hence, the dividend that will be paid to common stockholders in 20X2 is $20,000
Therefore the option a is correct
Mark Johnson saves a fixed percentage of his salary at the end of each year. This year he saved $2,000. For each of the next 5 years, he expects his salary to increase at an 4% annual rate, and he plans to increase his savings at the same 4% rate. There will be a total of 6 investments, the initial $2,000 plus five more. If the investments earn a return of 15% per year, how much will Mark have at the end of six years
Answer:
Mark will have $19,878.70 at the end of six years
Explanation:
Use the following formula to calculate the present value of cash flows
PV = [tex]A [\frac{1 - (\frac{1+g}{1+r})^n }{r - g} ][/tex]
Where
A = Investment = $2,000
g = growth rate = 4%
r = 15%
n = 6
Placing values in the formula
PV = [tex]2,000 [\frac{1 - (\frac{1+0.06}{1+0.15})^6 }{0.15 - 0.06} ][/tex]
PV = $8,594.11
Now calculate the future value in order to determine the amount Mark will have at the ned of six years
Future value = [tex]PV ( 1 + r )^n[/tex]
Where
PV = $8,594.11
r = 15%
n = 6
Placing values in the formula
Future value = [tex]8,594.11 ( 1 + 0.15 )^6[/tex]
Future value = $19,878.70

A. $21,000 Favorable B. $21,000 Unfavorable C. $22,000 Favorable D. $22,000 Unfavorable E. $23,500 Unfavorable The direct labor EFFICIENCY variance is:_______. A. $21,000 Favorable B. $21,000 Unfavorable C. $22,000 Favorable D. $22,000 Unfavorable E. $23,500 Unfavorable
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Actual Hours Used 22,000
Actual Rate per Hour 15
Standard Rate per Hour 14
Standard Hours for Units Produced 23,500
To calculate the direct labor rate and efficiency variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Direct labor rate variance= (14 - 15)*22,000
Direct labor rate variance= $22,000 unfavorable
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (23,500 - 22,000)*14
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $21,000 favorable

Describe the reason that accrued expenses often require adjusting entries but not in every situation. g
Answer:
Following are the solution to the given question:
Explanation:
Accrued Expenses:
The expenses accumulated were costs pending only at the conclusion of the financial day to be paid. Your financial reports would be made around an accrual basis, meaning the revenue would be booked appropriately without receiving the money. Likewise, the costs incurred during the existing fiscal year will be booked irrespective of if they're not paid.
Usually, know that such a cost is incurred only at end of the fiscal year until we have been paid.
When at the conclusion of a fiscal year we won't receive this bill, therefore the costs will have to be modified directly. In case the payment is not received.

Western Company is preparing a cash budget for June. The company has $11,800 cash at the beginning of June and anticipates $30,200 in cash receipts and $34,900 in cash disbursements during June. Western Company has an agreement with its bank to maintain a minimum cash balance of $10,000. As of May 31, the company owes $15,000 to the bank. To maintain the $10,000 required balance, during June the company must: Multiple Choice Borrow $2,900. Repay $2,900. Borrow $10,000. Repay $7,100. Borrow $4,700.
Answer: Borrow $2900
Explanation:
To maintain the $10,000 required balance, during June the amount that the company must borrow will be calculated thus:
Firstly, the ending cash balance without considering borrowings will be:
= Beginning balance + Receipts - Disbursements
= $11800 + $30200 - $34900
= $7100
Therefore, to maintain the $10,000 required balance, during June the company must borrow:
= $10000 - $7100
= $2900
The company must borrow $2900
A firm has an equity beta of 1.2, the risk-free rate is 3.4 percent, the market return is 15.7 percent, and the pretax cost of debt is 9.4 percent. The debt-equity ratio is .47. If you apply the common beta assumptions, what is the firm's asset beta
Answer:
0.82
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the firm's asset beta
Using this formula
Firm's asset beta=Equity beta/(1+/D/E)
Let plug in the formula
Firm's asset beta=1.2/(1+0.47)
Firm's asset beta=1.2/1.47
Firm's asset beta=0.816
Firm's asset beta=0.82 (Approximately)
Therefore the firm's asset beta is 0.82
XYZ manufactures dolls in two departments, Molding and Assembly. In the Molding Department, plastic is injected into a lizard-shaped mold. The dolls that come out of the molds are then transferred to the Assembly Department where hair is applied. Kota uses a weighted-average process cost system to collect costs in both departments. On January 1, the Molding Department had 32,000 dolls in process. These dolls were 0% complete with respect to direct materials and 30% complete with respect to conversion cost. During January, Molding completed 600,000 dolls. On January 31, Molding had 50,000 dolls in work in process.

Ending work in process 50,000 dolls 0% 40%
Units started during January 618,000 dolls
= Dolls completed in January Plus Ending work in process Minus Beginning work in process
= 618,000 (600,000 + 50,000 - 32,000)
contractor decided to bid for a major commercial project. The total price of her bid is $10 million. Estimate the total cost of estimating and preparing the bid proposal.
Answer: $150,000
Explanation:
The total cost of estimating and preparing the bid would normally fall between 1% and 2% of the total price of the bid.
It would therefore be best to use an average rate of these:
= ( 1 + 2) / 2
= 1.5%
The estimate will therefore be:
= 1.5% * 10,000,000
= $150,000
