A company can sell all the units it can produce of either Product A or Product B but not both. Product A has a unit contribution margin of $16 and takes two machine hours to make and Product B has a unit contribution margin of $30 and takes three machine hours to make. If there are 5,000 machine hours available to manufacture a product, income will be:

a. $10,000 more if Product A is made.
b. $10,000 less if Product B is made.
c. $10,000 less if Product A is made.
d. the same if either product is made.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Product B has a net income of $10,000 superior to Product A.

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Product A:

Unitary contribution margin= $16

Machine-hours required= 2

Product B:

Unitary contribution margin= $30

Machine-hours required= 3

First, we will calculate the total income of both products.

Product A= 16*(5,000/2)= $40,000

Product B= 30*(5,000/3)= $50,000

Product B has a net income of $10,000 superior to Product A.

Which of the following is true of a stock dividend? Multiple Choice It is a liability on the balance sheet. The decision to declare a stock dividend resides with the shareholders. Transfers a portion of equity from retained earnings to a cash reserve account. Does not affect total equity, but transfer amounts between the components of equity. Reduces a corporation's assets and stockholders' equity.

Answers

Answer:

Yes it is true that a stock dividend does not affect total equity.

Explanation:

A stock dividend is a non cash payment given to shareholders. Instead of cash, additional shares that is equivalent to the earnings that accrue is given to shareholders.

While this may increase the number of shares held, it does not affect total equity.

One of the benefits of stock dividends tax exemption and retained equity which translates to additional investment.

However, the additional; shares created could dilute the share prices.

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent Units

Material cost = 26,560

Conversion Cost= 25,540

Explanation:

We would assume the company uses  weighted average method of valuation.

Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.

Equivalent units = Degree of completion (%) × Number of units

Scenario 28-1 Suppose that the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the entire adult population of Mankiwland can be categorized as follows: 25 million people employed, 3 million people unemployed, 1 million discouraged workers, and 1 million people who are either students, homemakers, retirees, or other people not seeking employment. Refer to Scenario 28-1. What is the unemployment rate?

Answers

Answer:

10.7%

Explanation:

Solution:

Recall that:

The Reports from Bureau of labor statistics is shown as follows:

Employed people = 25 million

Unemployed people = 3 million

Discouraged workers = 1 million

Workers or Homemakers or retirees, or students = 1 million

The next step from this scenario is to find out the unemployment rate

Now,

The rate of unemployed =  (unemployed x 100 ) / labor force

= 300/28

=10.7%

Suppose the economy is in long-run equilibrium. In a short span of time, there is a sharp rise in the stock market, an increase in government purchases, an increase in the money supply and a decline in the value of the dollar. In the short run a. the price level and real GDP will both rise. b. the price level and real GDP will both fall. c. neither the price leave nor real GDP will change. d. All of the above are possible.

Answers

Answer:

All of the above are possible.

Explanation:

Discussions here center on equilibrium of an economy in a long run, and here after the government activities, their is a decline in dollar value; therefore in the short run, the price level and real GDP will both rise in as much as the price level and real GDP will also both fall. It is also gathered that neither the price leave nor real GDP will change.

The transition from the short run to the long run may be done by considering some short run equilibrium that is also a long run equilibrium as to supply and demand, then comparing that state against a new short run and long run equilibrium state from a change that disturbs equilibrium, say in the sales tax rate, tracing out the short run adjustment first, then the long run adjustment.

Calculation of Average Profits

Average Profit = Sum of Profits / Number of Years

                        = (300,000+290,000+240,000×8)/10

At the beginning of last year, Tarind Corporation budgeted $900,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead and chose a denominator level of activity of 600,000 machine-hours. At the end of the year, Tari's fixed manufacturing overhead budget variance was $12,000 favorable. Its fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance was $19,200 favorable. Actual direct labor-hours for the year were 625,000. What was Tari's total standard machine-hours allowed for last year's output?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 612800 hours

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

At the start of last year, Tari Corporation budgeted $900,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead and chose a denominator level of activity of 600,000 machine-hours.

At the end of the year, Tari's fixed manufacturing overhead budget variance was $12000 favorable. Its fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance was $19200 favorable. The direct actual labor-hours for the year were 625,000. What was Tari's standard total machine-hours allowed for last year's output?

Now,

The Budgeted at beginning of  the year =  $900,000

fixed manufacturing overhead for =  600,000 machine hours

Thus,

The Standard = $900,000 / 600,000 hours = $1.5 fixed overhead / machine/machining hour

So,

At end of year, manufacturing overhead volume was $19,200 favorable which means  that,

$19200 / $1.5 = 12800 additional hours.

Total Standard Machine Allowance Allowed for output = 600,000 +12800 = 612800 hours

Therefore, Tari's total standard machine-hours allowed for last year's output is 612800 hours

If  Tarind Corporation budgeted $900,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead and chose a denominator level of activity of 600,000 machine-hours. At the end of the year, Its fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance was $19,200 favorable. What Tari's total standard machine-hours allowed for last year's output will be is: 612,800 machine hours

Using this formula

Total standard machine-hours=Machine -hours level of activity+ [Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance÷(Fixed manufacturing overhead÷ Machine -hours level of activity)]

Where:

Machine -hours level of activity=600,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance=$19,200

Fixed manufacturing overhead=$900,000

Let plug in the formula

Total standard machine-hours=600,000+[$19,200÷($900,000÷600,000)]

Total standard machine-hours=600,000+($19,200÷1.5)

Total standard machine-hours=600,000+12,800

Total standard machine-hours=612,800 machine hours

Inconclusion if Tarind Corporation budgeted $900,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead and chose a denominator level of activity of 600,000 machine-hours. At the end of the year, Its fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance was $19,200 favorable. What Tari's total standard machine-hours allowed for last year's output will be is: 612,800 machine hours

The management of Ballard MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for $74,000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs $19,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost $9,000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use could be sold now for a salvage value of $31,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value. Required: 1. What is the annual depreciation expense associated with the new bottling machine

Answers

Answer:

$7,400 per year

Explanation:

Data provided for computing the annual depreciation expense is here below:-

Automated bottling machine = $74,000

Useful life = 10 years

The calculation of annual depreciation expense is given below:-

Annual depreciation expense = Automated bottling machine ÷ Useful life

= $74,000 ÷ 10

= $7,400 per year

Therefore for computing the annual depreciation expense we simply divide the automated bottling machine by useful life.

Suppose that the standard deviation of monthly changes in the price of commodity A is $2. The standard deviation of monthly changes in a futures price for a contract on commodity B (which is similar to commodity A) is $3. The correlation between the futures price and the commodity price is 0.9. What hedge ratio should be used when hedging a one month exposure to the price of commodity A

Answers

Answer:

0.6

Explanation:

Correlation r = 0.9,

Standard deviation of monthly change in price of commodity A, σA = 2,

Standard deviation of monthly change in price of commodity B, σB = 3

The hedge ratio will be calculated using the formula

Hedge ratio=r×σA÷σB

Hedge ratio=0.9×2÷3

Hedge ratio = 0.6

Therefore, the hedge ratio used when hedging a one month exposure to the price of commodity A is 0.6.

Crowl Corporation is investigating automating a process by purchasing a machine for $793,800 that would have a 9-year useful life and no salvage value. By automating the process, the company would save $133,000 per year in cash operating costs. The new machine would replace some old equipment that would be sold for scrap now, yielding $21,200. The annual depreciation on the new machine would be $88,200. The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to
a. 5.80%
b. 11.12%
c. 16.72%
d. 5.12%

Answers

Answer:

Simple rate of return is 5.8%

Therefore option (a) is correct option.

Explanation:

It is given that purchase cost = $793800

Company saving per year = $133000

Yielding = $21200

Annual depreciation = $88200

Annual profit = $133000 - $88200 = $44800

Net investment is equal to = $793800 - $21200 = $772600

Simple rate of return [tex]=\frac{44800}{772600}=0.0579[/tex]

= 5.8%

Therefore simple rate of return is 5.8 %

So option (a) is correct.

The predetermined overhead rate for Zane Company is $5, comprised of a variable overhead rate of $3 and a fixed rate of $2. The amount of budgeted overhead costs at normal capacity of $150000 was divided by normal capacity of 30000 direct labor hours, to arrive at the predetermined overhead rate of $5. Actual overhead for June was $9500 variable and $6050 fixed, and standard hours allowed for the product produced in June was 3000 hours. The total overhead variance is

Answers

Answer:

Total Overhead Variance= $500 unfavorable

Explanation:

The total overhead variance is the difference between actual overhead and the applied overhead.

Actual Overhead = Variable + Fixed= $9500 + $6050= $ 15,550

Budgeted Overhead for 30000 direct labor hours = $ 150,000

Applied Overhead for 3000 hours = 3000 *$5= $15000

Total Overhead Variance= Actual Overhead Less Applied Overhead

                                    = $15,500- $ 15000= $500 unfavorable

As actual is greater than applied it is unfavorable.

Answer:

$550 unfavorable.

Explanation:

Total actual overhead = $9,500 + $6,050 = $15,550

Total predetermined overhead = Predetermined overhead rate * Standard hours = $5 * 3,000 = $15,000

Total overhead variance = $15,550 - $15,000 = $550 unfavorable.

Note: It is unfavorable because total actual is greater than total predetermined overhead.

Hancock Medical Supply Co., earned $90,500 of revenue on account during Year 1, its first year of operation. During Year 1, Hancock collected $71,400 of cash from its receivables accounts. The company did not write-off any uncollectible accounts. It estimates that it will be unable to collect 1% of revenue on account. What is the net realizable value of receivables that will be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1

Answers

Answer:

$18,195

Explanation:

The computation of the net realizable value is shown below:

As we know that

Net Realizable Value of Receivables =  Ending Accounts Receivable - Estimated Uncollectibles  amount

where,

Ending balance of Accounts Receivable is

= Revenue on Account - Accounts collected

= $90,500 - $71,400

= $191,00

And,

Estimated Uncollectibles i.e  Bad debt Expense is

= Revenue on Account × given percentage

= $90,500 × 1%

= $905

So, the net realizable value is

= $19,100 - $905

= $18,195

We simply applied the above formula

Your bagel shop uses both capital and labor in the production of bagels. In this production process capital and labor are substitutes. If you install a new oven and the marginal product of capital increases, you will:

a. reduce the number of workers you employ
b. increase the number of workers you employ
c. reduce the amount of capital you are using not make any changes since you are already maximizing profit

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option A) reduce the number of workers you employ

Explanation:

Installing a new oven is capital intensive. So, for a business person to incur an additional capital cost to aid the efficiency of production, something has to give.

In this case, where capital and labor are substitutes, installing a new oven will drastically reduce the workload thereby necessitating a reduction in the number of workers.

By implication, the cost of paying wages which is a recurrent expenditure will reduce. In the long run and if the oven is maintained, it will e a very cost effective option.

Installing a new oven also suggests a marginal increment in capital.

On January 1, 2021, the Blackstone Corporation purchased a tract of land (site number 11) with a building for $600,000. Additionally, Blackstone paid a real estate brokerâs commission of $36,000, legal fees of $6,000, and title insurance of $18,000. The closing statement indicated that the land value was $500,000 and the building value was $100,000. Shortly after acquisition, the building was razed at a cost of $75,000.
Blackstone entered into a $3,000,000 fixed-price contract with Barnett Builders, Inc., on March 1, 2021, for the construction of an office building on land site 11. The building was completed and occupied on September 30, 2022. Additional construction costs were incurred as follows:
Plans, specifications, and blueprints .....................$ 12,000
Architectsâ fees for design and supervision ............95,000
To finance the construction cost, Blackstone borrowed $3,000,000 on March 1, 2021. The loan is payable in 10 annual installments of $300,000 plus interest at the rate of 14%. Blackstoneâs average amounts of accumulated building construction expenditures were as follows:
For the period March 1 to December 31, 2021 ...........$ 900,000
For the period January 1 to September 30, 2022 .......2,300,000
Required:
1. Prepare a schedule that discloses the individual costs making up the balance in the land account in respect of land site 11 as of September 30, 2022.
2. Prepare a schedule that discloses the individual costs that should be capitalized in the office building account as of September 30, 2022.

Answers

Answer:

Blackstone Corporation

1. A schedule that discloses the individual costs making up the balance in the land account in respect of land site 11 as of September 30, 2022:

Cost of Land =              $600,000

Broker's Commission =  $36,000

Legal Fees  =                    $6,000

Title Insurance =              $18,000

Razing of old building =  $75,000

Total  =                          $735,000

2. A schedule that discloses the individual costs that should be capitalized in the office building account as of September 30, 2022:

Payment to contractor for building =  $3,000,000

Plans, specifications, and blueprints =      $12,000

Architect's fees (design & supervision = $95,000

Capitalized Interest ($3m x14%/10 x 2) = $84,000

Total =                                                    $3,191,000

Explanation:

a) The cost of land to recognize includes the actual cost for the parcel of land, including the building which was razed.  All other expenses incurred ordinarily and necessarily in order to put the land to its intended use are also capitalized.  The costs for the broker's commission, legal fees, title insurance, and razing of old building were incurred ordinarily and necessarily for the land and are therefore capitalized in determining the value of the land.

b) The capitalized interest portion for the building is the interests paid to date.  The contractor's fee, payments for plans, architect's fee, and interests are included as costs of the building.

Your client has $80,000 invested in stock A. She would like to build a two-stock portfolio by investing another $80,000 in either stock B or C. She wants a portfolio with an expected return of at least 15% and as low a risk as possible, the standard deviation must be no more than 25%. Expected Return Standard Deviation Correlation With A A 18% 30% 1.0 B 17% 25% 0.3 C 15% 15% 0.4_____

Answers

Answer: Please see below for answer

Explanation:

Expected Return  Standard Deviation   Correlation With A  

 A 18%                         30%                        1.0  

B     17%                       25%                         0.3

C   15%                     15%                              0.4_____

Expected return of A (RA) = 18%

Expected return of B (RB) = 17%

Standard Deviation of A (σA) = 30%

Standard Deviation of B (σB) = 25%

Weight of A (WA) = 50% (Since equal amount of $80,000 is being invested)

Weight of B (WB) = 50%

Correlation = 0.3

Portfolio Returns = WARA + WBRB = (18%*50%) + (17%*50%) = 17.5%

Portfolio Standard Deviation = (WA2 * σA2 + WB2 * σB2 + 2*(WA)*(WB)*CorrelationAB* σA* σB)(1/2)

= [(50%2 X 30%2) + (50%2 X 25%2) + (2 X 50% X 50%X 0.3 X 30% X 25%)](1/2)

=0.0025 +0.015625+SQR 0.01125

=0.0025+0.015625+0.1061=0.1241= 12.4%

If Invested in Stock C

Expected return of A (RA) = 18%

Expected return of C (RC) = 15%

Standard Deviation of A (σA) = 30%

Standard Deviation of C (σC) = 15%

Weight of A (WA) = 50% (Since equal amount of $80,000 is Being invested)

Weight of C (WC) = 50%

Correlation = 0.4

Portfolio Returns = WARA + WCRC = (18%*50%) + (15%*50%) = 16.5%

Portfolio Standard Deviation = (WA2 * σA2 + WC2 * σC2 + 2*(WA)*(WC)*CorrelationAC* σA* σC)(1/2)

= [(50%²X 30%²) + (50%² X 15%²) + (2 X 50% X 50%X 0.4 X 30% X 15%)]^1/2

=  0.0025+0.005625+ SQR 0.009= 0.1029= 10.29%= 10.3%

The  expected return and standard deviation  if invested in Stock B is 17.5% and  12.4% while that of  STOCK C is 16.5% and 10.2 % but the client wants  expected return of at least 15% and at low risk as possible with standard deviation not more than 25%, it is advised that the client invest in stock C as the values obtained are more towards her choice.
