b. $135,290
c. $117,200
d. $216,900
e. $252,490
f. $96,890
Explanation:
direct labor cost = $83,600 - $1,990 = $81,610
manufacturing overhead cost = $28,700 + $1,990 + 31,400 + $31,600 + $13,600 + 28,000 = $135,290
prime cost = $35,600 + $81,610 = $117,200
conversion cost = $81,610 + $135,290 = $216,900
total manufacturing cost = $135,290 + $117,200 = $252,490
period expenses = $19,900 + $8,050 + $61,300 + $7,640 = $96,890
A grocery store that uses local distributors is am example of what stage of globalization
Answer: Domestic stage
Explanation:
In the domestic stage of production, the entity is only involved in the domestic arena. The production facilities they have are limited to the country they are in and they only operate in the domestic market and at this point, the company is not trying to get into foreign markets.
The grocery store above uses only local distributors which means that they are only servicing the local market which therefore puts them at the domestic stage of globalization.

4. Nike reports an increase in assets of $1.04 billion and an increase in liabilities of $0.3 billion.
5. Kellogg reports a decrease in liabilities of $0.40 billion and an increase in stockholders' equity of $0.02 billion.
Required:
a. What is the amount of stockholders' equity of ExxonMobi?
b. What is the amount of total assets of Citigroup?
c. What is the amount of total liabilities of Amazon.com?
d. What is the amount of the change in stockholders' equity of Nike?
Answer:
a. The amount of stockholders' equity of ExxonMobil is $105 billion.
b. The amount of total assets of Citigroup is $1,434 billion
c. The amount of total liabilities of Amazon.com is $2.96 billion.
d. The amount of the change in stockholders' equity of Nike is $0.74 billion
Explanation:
We will the accounting equation to answer the question
Accounting Equation
Total Assets = Total Equity + Total Liabilities
a.
ExxonMobil
Where
Total assets = $196 billion
Total liabilities = $91 billion
Placing values in the equation
$196 billiom = Total Equity + $91 billion
Total Equity = $196 - $91 billion
Total Equity = $105 billion
b.
Citigroup
where
Total liabilities = $1,340 billion
Stockholders' equity = $94 billion
Placing values in the equation
Total Assets = $94 billion + $1,340 billion
Total Assets = $1,434 billion
c.
Amazon.com
Where
Total assets = $3.1 billion
Total stockholders' equity = $0.14 billion
placing values in the equation
$3.1 billion = $.14 billion + Total Liabilities
Total Liabilities = $3.1 billion - $.14 billion
Total Liabilities = $2.96 billion
d.
Nike
Change in Assets = Change in equity + Change in liabilities
Where
Increase in assets = $1.04 billion
Increase in liabilities = $0.3 billion
Placing values in the equation
$1.04 billion = Change in equity + $0.3 billion
Change in equity = $1.04 billion - $0.3 billion
Change in equity = $0.74 billion
After a financial crisis hits the country of Barbaria, 8 million people become unemployed. If 35 million individuals are lucky enough to keep their jobs, what is the unemployment rate
Answer:
18.60%
Explanation:
Total labor force = $8 million + $35 million = $43 million
Unemployment Rate = (Unemployed/Labor force)*100
Unemployment Rate = $8 million/$43 million * 100
Unemployment Rate = 0.1860465 * 100
Unemployment Rate = 18.60%
Lauren Fine Clothing manufactures clothes for professional women. Lauren applies overhead at the rate of $15 per direct labor hour. During April, the company has budgeted 9,420 direct labor hours. At the end of April, 9,200 direct labor hours and $132,670 in manufacturing overhead had been incurred. To adjust for the difference between applied and incurred overhead, which journal entry would the firm record (using the pro-rated approach) given the following ending balances:
Answer: Debit MOH and credit cost if goods sold by 5330.
Explanation:
From the question, we are given the following information:
Overhead rate = $15 per direct labor hour
Direct labor hour incurred = 9,200
Manufacturing overhead cost incurred $132,670
We will then calculate the value for the applied manufacturing overhead which will be the direct labor hour incurred multiplied by the predetermined overhead rate. This will be:
= 9,200 x 15
= $138,000
Then, we have to calculate the overapplied manufacturing overhead which will be:
= $138,000 - $132,670
= $5,330
The journal entry will then be:
Debit: Manufacturing overhead (MOH) $5330
Credit: Cost of goods sold $5330
Madison's gross tax liability is $11,450. Madison had $3,030 of tax credits available and she had $10,650 of taxes withheld by her employer. What are Madison's taxes due (or taxes refunded) with her tax return
Answer:
the madison taxes refunded is -$2,230
Explanation:
The computation of the madison taxes due is shown below:
= Gross tax liability - tax credits available - taxes withheld by the employer
= $11,450 - $3,030 - $10,650
= -$2,230
Hence, the madison taxes refunded is -$2,230

Mr. Frohardt donated $40,000 toward future scholarships. The scholarships are to be paid according to the following schedule:
• end of year 1: $1,000,
• end of year 2: $1,500,
• end of year 3: $2,000,
• and so on...
with the amount increasing $500 each year until the scholarship reaches $5,000. The annual scholarship will remain at $5,000 until the fund is depleted. If the account balance is less than $5,000 at the end of any year (i.e., after the awarding of the $5,000 for that year), that remaining amount immediately will be awarded as a smaller scholarship, and the account will be closed. The scholarship fund earns interest at an effective annual rate of 8%. Determine how many full $5,000 scholarships will be awarded.

A total of 1,550 units were produced in Job 313. Required: a. What is the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 313
Required:
What is the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 313? What is the unit product cost for Job 313?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 1.15*10,700= $12,305
Now, we can determine the total manufacturing cost:
Total manufacturing cost= 15,745 + 10,700 + 12,305
Total manufacturing cost= $38,750
Finally, the unitary cost:
Unitary cost= 38,750 / 1,550
Unitary cost= $25

Debt and equity are not. The company maintains a constant 30 percent dividend payout ratio. What is the internal growth rate? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
9.69%
Explanation:
Calculate for the internal growth rate
First step is to calculate the ROA
ROA = $4,819/$38,200
ROA=.1262*100
ROA= 12.62%
Second step is to calculate the plowback ratio b
The plowback ratio, b= 1 – .30
b= .70
Now let calculate the Internal growth rate using this formula
Internal growth rate=(ROA × b)/[1 – (ROA × b)]
Let plug in the formula
Internal growth rate=[.1262(.70)]/[1 – .1262(.70)]
Internal growth rate=.0969*100
Internal growth rate= 9.69%
Therefore the internal growth rate will be 9.69%
A company is currently selling 10,000 units of product monthly for $40 per unit. The unit contribution margin is $27. The company believes that spending $50,000 per month on advertising will allow them to increase the selling price to $45 and that sales will increase by 750 units per month. The company should ______.
Answer:
The company should accept the idea reason been that the profit will increase by $24,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine What should the company do
First step
Increased CM = [10,750 x (27+(40-45))]- (10,000 x 27)
Increased CM = [10,750 x(27+5)]- (10,000 x 27)
Increased CM = (10,750 x 32) - (10,000 x 27)
Increased CM = $344,000-$270,000
Increased CM = $74,000
Now let calculate the profit
Profit =$74,000-$50,000
Profit=$24,000 Increase
Therefore based on the above calculation The company should accept the idea reason been that the profit will increase by the amount of $24,000
Cain Components manufactures and distributes various plumbing products used in homes and other buildings. Over time, the production staff has noticed that products they considered easy to make were difficult to sell at margins considered reasonable while products that seemed to take a lot of staff time were selling well despite recent price increases. A summer intern has suggested that the cost system might be providing misleading information. The controller decided that a good summer project for the intern would be to develop,in one self-contained area of the plant, an alternative cost system with which to compare the current system. The intern identified the following cost pools and, after discussion with some plant personnel, appropriate cost drivers for each pool. There were:
Cost Pools Costs Activity Drivers
Receiving $600,000 Direct material cost
Manufacturing 5,500,000 Machine-hours
Machine setup 900,000 Production runs
Shipping $1,000,000 Units shipped
In this particular area, Cain produces two of its many products: Standard and Deluxe.The following are data for production for the latest full year of operations:
Standard Deluxe
Total direct material costs $245,000 $155,000
Total direct labor costs $650,000 $250,000
Total machine-hours 150,000 100,000
Total number of setups 75 125
Total pounds of material 18,000 9,000
Total direct labor-hours 6,000 3,750
Number of units produced and shipped 20,000 5,000
The intern decides to look more closely at the manufacturing activity and determines that it can be broken down into two activities: production and engineering. Production covers the costs of ongoing manufacturing while engineering includes those activities dealing with engineering changes, design modifications, and so on.
The costs attributed to production are $3,300,000 and the costs attributed to engineering are $2,200,000. After discussion with plant engineers, the intern decides that the best cost driver for engineering is setups, because most of the work arises from changes in the way the product is run.
Required:
a. Compute the totals of the cost driver rates.
b. What unit product costs will be reported for the two products if the revised ABC system is used?
Solution :
Standard Deluxe Total
Total cost of direct material 245000 155000 400000
Total cost of direct labor 650000 250000 900000

A firm is considering three capacity alternatives: A, B, and C. Alternative A would have an annual fixed cost of $105000 and variable costs of $24 per unit. Alternative B would have annual fixed costs of $126000 and variable costs of $25 per unit. Alternative C would have fixed costs of $82000 and variable costs of $37 per unit. Revenue is expected to be $52 per unit.
a. Which alternative has the lowest break-even quantity?
b. Which alternative will produce the highest profits for an annual output of 10,000 units?
c. Which alternative would require the lowest volume of output to generate an annual profit of $50,000?
Solution :
Alternative A Alternative B Alternative C
Annual fixed cost 105000 126000 82000
Variable fixed cost 24 25 37
a). We have to find out the Break even quantity :
Break Even quantity for A [tex]$=\frac{\text{annual fixed cost}}{(\text{price - variable cost per unit})}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{105000}{52-24}$[/tex]
= 3750 units
Break Even quantity for B [tex]$=\frac{\text{annual fixed cost}}{(\text{price - variable cost per unit})}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{126000}{52-25}$[/tex]
= 4666 units
Break Even quantity for C [tex]$=\frac{\text{annual fixed cost}}{(\text{price - variable cost per unit})}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{82000}{52-37}$[/tex]
= 5466 units
Therefore, Alternate A has the lowest Break Even quantity.
b). Now,
[tex]$\text{Profit} = (\text{price - variable cost per unit}) \times \text{units to sell - total fixed cost}$[/tex]
[tex]$\text{Profit of A} = (52 - 24) \times 10000 - 105000$[/tex]
= 280,000 - 105,000
= 175,000
[tex]$\text{Profit of B} = (52 - 25) \times 10000 - 126000$[/tex]
= 270,000 - 126,000
= 144,000
[tex]$\text{Profit of C} = (52 - 37) \times 10000 - 82000$[/tex]
= 150,000 - 105,000
= 45,000
Thus, alternate A has the highest amount of profit.
c).
[tex]$\text{Units of target profit = break even quantity} + \frac{\text{target profit} }{(\text{price - variable cost per unit })}$[/tex]
Units of the target profit for A [tex]$=3750 + \frac{50000}{52-24}$[/tex]
= 5535 units
Units of the target profit for B [tex]$=4666 + \frac{50000}{52-25}$[/tex]
= 6517 units
Units of the target profit for C [tex]$=5466 + \frac{50000}{52-37}$[/tex]
= 8799 units
Thus Alternative A will require the lowest volume of the output.
at the beginning of the month there were no units in beginning work in process and 115,000 units were begun during the month. At the end of the month there were 40,000 units that were 30% complete as to conversion costs in ending work in process. If all materials are included when the production begins, the equivalent units for conversion costs is:
Answer:
The equivalent units for conversion costs is 87,000 units
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the completed during the month
Completed units = Units begun during the month - Units in Work in process
Completed units = 115,000 - 40,000
Completed units = 75,000 units
Now calculate the equivalent unit in respect of conversion cost as follow
Equivalent units ( Conversion cost ) = Units completed in the month + ( Units in work in process x percentage of completion )
Equivalent units ( Conversion cost ) = 75,000 units + ( 40,000 x 30% )
Equivalent units ( Conversion cost ) = 75,000 units + 12,000 unints
Equivalent units ( Conversion cost ) = 87,000 units
Suppose there are only two firms that sell tablets, Padmania and Capturesque. The payoff matrix below shows the profits (in millions of dollars) each company will earn depending on whether it sets a high or low price for its tablets. For example, the lower-left cell shows that if Padmania prices low and Capturesque prices high, Padmania will earn a profit of $15 million and Capturesque will earn a profit of $2 million. Assume this is a simultaneous game and Padmania and Capturesque are both profit-maximizing firms.
Capturesque
Padmania high price low price
high price 11,11 2,15
low price 15, 2 8, 8
1. If Padmania prices high, Capturesque will make more profit if it chooses a _____ price, and if Padmania prices low, Capturesque will make more profit if it chooses a _____ price.
2. If Capturesque prices high, Padmania will make more profit if it chooses a _____ price, and if Capturesque prices low, Padmania will make more profit if it chooses a _____ price.
3. Considering all of the information given, pricing low _____ a dominant strategy for both Padmania and Capturesque.
4. If the firms do not collude, what strategies will they end up choosing?
a. Both Padmania and Capturesque will choose a low price.
b. Padmania will choose a high price and Capturesque will choose a low price.
c. Both Padmania and Capturesque will choose a high price.
d. Padmania will choose a low price and Capturesque will choose a high price.
5. True or False: The game between Padmania and Capturesque is an example of the prisoners' dilemma.
Answer:
low low
2. low low
3. pricing low is a dominant strategy for Padmania and Capturesque.
4. price low
5. yes
Explanation:
Game theory looks at the interactions between participants in a competitive game and calculates the best choice for the player.
Dominant strategy is the best option for a player regardless of what the other player is playing.
Nash equilibrium is the best outcome for players where no player has an incentive to change their decisions.
A prisoner's dilemma is when there is a motivation for a player to make a decision that would create a less optimal outcome for other players
If Padmania prices high, Capturesque can either charge low or high. If it charges low, it would earn 15 and if it charges high, it would earn 11. It is better to charge low.
if Padmania prices low, Capturesque can either charge low or high. If it charges low, it would earn 8 and if it charges high, it would earn 2. It is better to price low
If Capturesque prices high, Padmania can either charge low or high. If it charges low, it would earn 15 and if it charges high, it would earn 11. It is better to charge low.
If Capturesque prices low, Padmania can either charge low or high. If it charges low, it would earn 8 and if it charges high, it would earn 2. It is better to charge low.
Three years ago, you invested $3,350.00. Today, it is worth $4,100.00. What rate of interest did you earn
Answer:
6.97%
Explanation:
the formula to be used is
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
$4,100.00 = $3,350.00 x ( 1 + r)^3
divide both sides of the equation by $3,350.00
$4,100.00 / $3,350.00 = ( 1 + r)^3
1.223881 = ( 1 + r)^3
find the cube root of both sides
1.069661 = 1 + r
r = 6.97%
I wanna know about debit and credit full explanation
Answer:
Explanation:
A debit is an entry made in an account. It either increases an asset or expense account or decreases equity, liability, or revenue accounts.
A credit is an entry alsom made in an account. It either increases equity, liability, or revenue accounts or decreases an asset or expense account.
Answer:
CREDIT vs. DEBIT
Explanation:
Debit :- A debit is an accounting entry that results in either an increase in assets or a decrease in liabilities on a company's balance sheet ... For instance , if a firm takes out a loan to purchase equipment , it would debit fixed assets and at the same time credit a liabilities account , depending on the nature of the loan .
Credit :- Generally defined as a contractual agreement in which a borrower receives something of value now and agrees to repay the lender at a later date—generally with interest .
Main Difference :- When you use a debit card, the funds for the amount of your purchase are taken from your checking account in almost real time . When you use a credit card , the amount will be charged to your line of credit , meaning you will pay the bill at a later date , which also gives you more time to pay .
A remotely located air sampling station can be powered by solar cells or by running an above ground electric line to the site and using conventional power. Solar cells will cost $18,000 to install and will have a useful life of 5 years with no salvage value. Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, and other maintenance issues are expected to be $2,400. A new power line will cost $27,500 to install, with power costs expected to be $1,000 per year. Since the air sampling project will end in 5 years, the salvage value of the line is considered to be zero. At an interest rate of 10% per year,
a. Which alternative should be selected on the basis of an annual worth analysis
b. What must be the first cost of the above ground line to make the two alternatives equally attractive economically?
Answer:
a) should install the solar cells
alternative 1, solar cells
initial investment $18,000
annual expenses $2,400 (5 years)
NPV = $27,097.89
AW = (10% x $27,097.89) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁵] = $7,148.36
alternative 2, power line
initial investment $27,500
annual expenses $1,000 (5 years)
NPV = $31,290.79
AW = (10% x $31,290.79) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁵] = $8,254.43
b) $23,307.10

You are planning to save for retirement over the next 25 years. To do this, you will invest $820 per month in a stock account and $420 per month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 10.2 percent, and the bond account will pay 6.2 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with a 7.2 percent return. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 20-year withdrawal period? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
The withdraw amount is "11,227.42".
Explanation:
The given values are:
In stock account,
PMT = $820
Interest rate = [tex]\frac{10.2 \ percent}{12}[/tex]
N = 300
PV = 0
In Bond account,
PMT = $420
Interest rate = [tex]\frac{6.2 \ percent}{12}[/tex]
N = 300
PV = 0
Now,
By using the FV (Future value) function, the value in Stock account will be:
= [tex]FV(rate,nper,pmt,[pv],[type])[/tex]
= [tex]1,125,795.30[/tex]
By using the FV (Future value) function, the value in Stock account will be:
= [tex]FV(rate,nper,pmt,[pv],[type])[/tex]
= [tex]300,181.3321[/tex]
After 25 years,
The value throughout the account, will be:
= [tex]300,181.3321 + 1,125,795.30[/tex]
= [tex]1,425,976.63[/tex]
By using the PMT function, we can find the with drawling amount. The amount will be:
= [tex]PMT(rate, nper, pv, [fv], [type])[/tex]
= [tex]11,227.42[/tex]
