Answer:
d. INTC: 2.36 TXN: 3.43
Explanation:
The property , plant equipment turnover is the ratio of sales divided by the amount of PPE as shown below:
PPE turnover=sales/(beginning PPE+ending PPE)/2
Intel Corporation (INTC):
PPE turnover=$38,826/($15,768+$17,111)/2
PPE turnover=$38,826/$16,439.50
PPE turnover=2.36 times
Texas Instruments (TXN):
PPE turnover=$13,392/( $3,918+$3,899)/2
PPE turnover=$13,392/$3,908.50
PPE turnover=3.43 times
The correct option is D
Suppose that a consumer has an initial endowment of 48.00 eggs. He is able to sell these eggs freely on the market for $1.00 per egg, but has no other income. However, he still demands some eggs himself. His demand is given by the following equation:
x1 = 16.00+ m/4p1
The price for eggs increases to $2.00 per egg. Calculate this consumer's endowment income effect.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the consumer's endowment income effect is as follows:
But before that following calculations must be done
Beginning value of the endowment,
m = 48 × 1
= 48
Now New value of endowment,
m' = 48 × new price
= 48 × 2
= 96
so,
Consumer's endowment income effect is
= x1(p1', m') - x1(p1', m)
= 28 - 22
= 6 eggs.
Working notes:
(x1(p1', m') is
= 16 + (96 ÷ 4 × 2)
= 16 + (96 ÷ 8)
= 16 + 12
= 28
And, x1(p1', m) is
= 16 + (48 ÷ 4 × 2)
= 16 + (48 ÷ 8)
= 16 + 6
= 22
Prepare Krum Co.'s journal entries to record the following transactions involving its short-term investments in available-for-sale debt securities, all of which occurred during the current year. a. On August 1, paid $70,000 cash to purchase Houtte's 11%, six-month debt securities ($70,000 principal), dated August 1. b. On October 30, received a check from Houtte for 90 days' interest on the debt securities in transaction a
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entries are shown below:
On Aug 1
Short-term investments $70,000
To Cash $70,000
(Being the short term investment is recorded)
Here short term investment is debited as it increased the asset and credited the cash as it decreased the asset
On Oct 30
Cash ($70,000 × 11% × 90 days ÷ 360 days) 1,925
To Interest revenue $1,925
(Being the interest revenue is recorded)
here cash is debited as it increased the asset and credited the interest revenue as it also increased the revenue
Here we assume 360 days in a year

Melissa is an unmarried person who earns a salary of $54,000 per year and has $500 of interest income. Her itemized deductions total $2,500. She is able to use a non-refundable credit of $400. She has $5,000 of federal income taxes withheld from her wages. What is the amount of Melissa's REFUND OR TAX DUE FOR 2020
Answer:
$6150
Explanation:
These are the details of Melissa's income
Salary = $54000
Interest income = 500
Itemized deductions = $ 2500
Non refundable credit = $400
Withheld federal income tax = $5000
We have to calculate the amount of her tax return for year 2020
Taxable income = 54000+500-2500
= $52500
Tax rate 22%
Tax on taxable income = 52500x0.22
= 11550
Minus non refundable credit = 11550-400
Minus federal tax withheld = 11550-400-5000
= $6150
Reamer Company uses a predetermined overhead rate based on machine hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. The company has provided the following estimated costs for the next year: Direct materials - $1000, Direct labor - $3000, Sales commissions - $4000, Salary of production supervisor - $2000, Indirect materials - $400, Advertising expense - $800, Rent on factory equipment - $1000. Reamer estimates that 500 direct labor hours and 1000 machine hours will be worked during the year. The predetermined overhead rate per hour will be:__________
A. $6.80
B. $6.00
C. $3.00
D. $3.40
Answer:
D. $3.40
Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:
Predetermined overhead rate is
= Estimated manufacturing overhead ÷ estimated machine hours
= ($2,000 + $400 + $1,000) ÷ (1,000 machine hours)
= $3,400 ÷ $1,000 machine hours
= $3.40 per hour
Ayala Inc. has conducted the following analysis related to its product lines, using a traditional costing system (volume-based) and an activity-based costing system. Both the traditional and the activity-based costing systems include direct materials and direct labor costs.
Products Sales Revenue Traditional ABC
Product 540X $195,000 $56,000 $46,600
Product 137Y 158,000 55,000 37,000
Product 249S 84,000 10,000 37,400
Instructions
a) For each product line, compute operating income using the traditional costing system.
b) For each product line, compute operating income using the activity-based costing system
c) Using the following formula, compute the percentage difference in operating income for each of the product lines of Ayala:{Operating Income (ABC)-Operating Income traditional cost)]divided operating Income (traditional cost)(round the percentage to two decimals).
Answer:
a. Operating income of Product 540X under traditional costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $195,000 - $56,000 = $139,000
Operating income of Product 137Y under traditional costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $158,000 - $55,000 = $103,000
Operating income of Product 249S under traditional costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $84,000 - $10,000 = $74,000
b. Operating income of Product 540X under activity-based costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $195,000 - $46,600 = $148,400
Operating income of Product 137Y under activity-based costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $158,000 - $37,000 = $121,000
Operating income of Product 249S under activity-based costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $84,000 - $37,400 = $46,600
c. % of the difference between the operating income of Product 540X under traditional costing system and ABC system = Operating Income (ABC) - [Operating Income (Traditional cost)/Operating Income (Traditional cost)] * 100
= $148,400 - $139,000/$139,000 * 100
= $9,400/$139,000 * 100
= 0.0676258992805755 * 100
= 6.76%
% of the difference between the operating income of Product 137Y under traditional costing system and ABC system = Operating Income (ABC) - [Operating Income (Traditional cost)/Operating Income (Traditional cost)] * 100
= $121,000 - $103,000/$103,000 * 100
= $18,000/$103,000*100
= 0.1747572815533981 * 100
= 17.48%
% of the difference between the operating income of Product 249S under traditional costing system and ABC system = Operating Income (ABC) - [Operating Income (Traditional cost)/Operating Income (Traditional cost)] * 100
= $46,600 - $74,000/$74,000 * 100
= -$27,400/$74,000 * 100
= -0.3702702702702703 * 100

Return to questionItem 4 Required information Skip to question Retained earnings at the beginning of the period was $300. During the period, Kilgore Company earned revenue of $1,100 and incurred expenses of $400. Assuming dividends paid to stockholders were $200, the ending balance in retained earnings must have been:
Answer:
$800
Explanation:
The first task here is to determine the amount of net income recognized in the year which is the earned revenue minus incurred expenses as shown thus:
net income=earned revenue-incurred expenses
earned revenue= $1,100
incurred expenses=$400
net income=$1,100-$400=$700
retained earnings for the period=net income-dividends paid
dividends paid=$200
retained earnings for the period=$700-$200=$500
ending balance of retained earnings=beginning retained earnings+retained earnings for the period
beginning retained earnings=$300
ending balance of retained earnings=$300+$500=$800
A company issued 8%, 15-year bonds with a face amount of $100 million. The market yield for bonds of similar risk and maturity is 6%. Interest is paid semiannually. At what price did the bonds sell
Answer:
$119.60 million
Explanation:
The bond price formula provided below is very useful in determining the amount of money received from the bond investors when the bond were issued:
Bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+semiannual coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n/r
face value=$100 million
r=semiannual yield=6%*6/12=3%
n=number of semiannual coupon payments in 15 years=15*2=30
semiannual coupon=face value*coupon rate*6/12=$100million*8%*6/12=$4 million
bond price=$100/(1+3%)^30+$4*(1-(1+3%)^-30/3%
bond price=$100/(1.03)^30+$4*(1-(1.03)^-30/0.03
bond price=$100/2.42726247+$4*(1-0.41198676)/0.03
bond price=$100/2.42726247+$4*0.58801324/0.03
bond price=$41.20+$ 78.40=$119.60 million
DRK, Inc., has just sold 100,000 shares in an initial public offering. The underwriter’s explicit fees were $60,000. The offering price for the shares was $40, but immediately upon issue, the share price jumped to $44. a. What is the total cost to DRK of the equity issue? b. Is the entire cost of the underwriting a source of profit to the underwriters? multiple choice Yes No
Answer: a. $460,000 ; b. No
Explanation:
a. What is the total cost to DRK of the equity issue?
First, we calculate the implicit cost per share which will be:
= $44 - $40 = $4.
Therefore, the total implicit cost will be:
= $4 × 100,000
= $400,000
Therefore, total cost to DRK of the equity issue will be:
= Implicit cost + Explicit cost
= $400,000 + $60,000
= $460,000
b. Is the entire cost of the underwriting a source of profit to the underwriters?
No. The entire cost of the underwriting would not be a source of profit to the underwriters. This is because the cost of underpricing isn't included.
Baxter Inc. has a target capital structure of $30 million debt, $15 million preferred stock, and $55 million common equity. The company's after-tax cost of debt is 7%, its cost of preferred stock is 11%, its cost of retained earnings is 15%, and its cost of new common stock is 16%. The company stock has a beta of 1.5 and the company's marginal tax rate is 35%. What is the company's weighted average cost of capital if retained earnings are used to fund the common equity portion
Answer:
12%
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of Capital = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Preferred Stock * Cost of Preferred Stock + Weight of Debt * Cost of Debt
Particluars Weights (given) Cost Weights*Cost
Common stock 55% or 0.55 16% = 8.8 %
Debt 30 % or 0.30 7% (after tax) = 2.1 %
Preferred Stock 15 % or 0.15 7.15 % = 1.0725 %
WACC 12 %
On November 1, 2018, Taylor signed a one-year contract to provide handyman services on an as-needed basis to King Associates, with the contract to start immediately. King agreed to pay Taylor $5,520 for the one-year period. Taylor is confident that King will pay that amount, but payment is not scheduled to occur until 2019. Taylor should recognize revenue in 2018 in the amount of:_____.
a. $900.
b. $2,700.
c. $0.
d. $5,400.
Answer: 920
Explanation:
Since the transaction took place in November, we should note that revenue should be recognized for 2 months by Taylor.

= 5520/12 × 2
= 460 × 2
= 920
You have decided to invest $15,000 in a money market fund that pays you interest at the annual rate of 6% and compounds interests monthly. Your plan is to take out your money in a year and pay taxes on the interest earned. If the corresponding tax rate is 20%, how much money in total will you expect to receive in a year after paying taxes.
Answer:
$15,869.66
Explanation:
The formula for determining the future value of the amount invested is :
FV = PV x (1 + r / m)^mn
FV = Future value
PV = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
m = number of compounding
$15,000 x (1+ 0.06/12)^12 = $15,925.17
Interest earned = future value - present value
$15,925.17 - $15,000 = $925.17
Tax paid on interest earned = 0.06 x $925.17 = $55.51
Interest after taxes = $925.17 - $55.51 = $869.66
Total amount expected = $15,000 + $869.66 = $15,869.66

A firm with a net income of $30,000 and weighted average actual shares outstanding of 15,000 for the year also had the following two securities outstanding the entire year: (1) 2,000 options to purchase one share of stock for $12 per share. The average share price during the year was $20, (2) cumulative convertible preferred stock with an annual dividend commitment of $4,500. Total common shares issued on conversion are 2,900. Compute diluted EPS for this firm.
Answer:
$1.68
Explanation:
Diluted EPS = Earnings Attributable to Potential Ordinary Shareholders ÷ Weighted Average Number Ordinary Shareholders plus Potential Voting Rights
where,
Earnings Attributable to Potential Ordinary Shareholders = $30,000
and
Weighted Average Number Ordinary Shareholders plus Potential Voting Rights
Weighted average actual shares outstanding = 15,000
Plus Potential voting rights of 2,000 options = 1
Plus Potential voting right of preferred stock = 2,900
Total = 17,901
therefore,
Diluted EPS = $30,000 ÷ 17,901
= $1.68

Answer:
When telling a friend about your new job, how would you describe this company’s operations?
Neither effective nor efficient
Explanation:
The company's operations will be considered effective if they achieve objectives. But they do not produce the desired results because drivers often get the wrong addresses, making freights not to arrive at their destinations. Similarly, the company's operations cannot be described as efficient because trucks go out half full with wrong addresses. This is a waste of time, money, and efforts, and the performance competence of the company is questionable. Efficient operations accomplish results with the least amount of resources. Effective operations achieve desired results successfully.
Indiana Co. began a construction project in 2018 with a contract price of $161 million to be received when the project is completed in 2020. During 2018, Indiana incurred $33 million of costs and estimates an additional $89 million of costs to complete the project. Indiana recognizes revenue over time and for this project recognizes revenue over time according to the percentage of the project that has been completed. Suppose that, in 2019, Indiana incurred additional costs of $66 million and estimated an additional $53 million in costs to complete the project. Indiana:________
a. Recognized $3.75 million loss on the project in 2022.
b. Recognized $5.25 million gross profit on the project in 2022.
c. Recognized $7.5 million gross profit on the project in 2022.
d. Recognized $1.5 million loss on the project in 2022.
Answer:
Recognized $3.75 million loss on the project in 2017.
Explanation:
Calculation for what Indiana Co. Recognized
First step is to calculate the Percentage of contract is completed in 2019
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=($33 million+$66 million )/($33 million+$66 million + $53 million)
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=$96 million/$149 million
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=0.64429*100
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=64.43%
Second step is to calculate The estimated gross profit
Estimated gross profit=$161 million-$149 million
Estimated gross profit=$12 million
Fourth step is to calculate gross profit to date
Gross profit to date=64.43%*161=103.7
gross profit to date=33 million / (33 + 89 million) * 161 million
gross profit to date=33 million/122 million* 161 million
gross profit to date=43.54
= $44.01 million in revenue in 2021 (4)

General Manufacturing expects to have 40,000 pounds of raw materials inventory on hand on June 30, the end of the current year. The company has budgeted the following production for the first four months of the coming year:
Production (units)
July 100,000
August 120,000
September 150,000
October 110,000
General Manufacturing desires each month's ending raw materials inventory to be 20% of the following month's production needs. A finished unit requires two pounds of raw materials. General Manufacturing's budgeted purchases of materials for September is:
a. 60,000 lbs.
b. 248,000 lbs.
c. 228,000 lbs.
d. 284,000 lbs.
e. 300,000 lbs.
Answer:
d. 284,000 lbs.
Explanation:
The computation of the budgeted purchase of material for the september month is as follows
= Raw material needed for production + closing stock - opening stock
= (150,000 × 2) + (110,000 × 2 × 20%) - 60,000
= 300,000 + 44,000 - 60,000
= 284,000 lbs
Hence, the budgeted purchase of material for the september month is 284,000 lbs
Marcus was offered a job as a senior manager by Super Corp. The offer, which was made over the phone, was for a three-year contract for $120,000 salary per year. Marcus orally accepted, there was no writing. The state in which Marcus was offered the job requires that such contracts be in writing. Marcus quit his current job, which paid $75,000 a year, and headed to the state where Super Corp was headquartered. When he arrived, the director at Super Corp who had originally offered him the job said that they were revoking and that there was no contract, as Marcus never signed an employment agreement. If Marcus sues Super Corp, what is the likely result
,Answer:
-Marcus is owed something by Super Corp because he relied reasonably and to his detriment on Super Corp's offer.
Explanation:
Employment contracts can be written, oral, or implied and each of these are binding to some extent.
In the given instance it is required that employment should be written in the state where Super Corp operates.
So Marcus will not be able to compel them to give him a job as the offer was made and accepted orally.
However the offer resulted in him quitting his current job, which paid $75,000 a year, and heading to the state where Super Corp was headquartered.
He relied on the offer to his detriment of losing his current job, so Super Corp owes him for the damages incurred
3. You are considering investing in a startup company called Minions Technologies. After careful analysis, you determine that Minions will be able to generate $100,000 in cash flow at the end of each year for the first 5 years. Then, Minions will generate cash flow of $400,000 at the end of the 6th year, after which it will grow at 11% per year forever. Using a discount rate of 18%, what is the amount you would be willing to invest
Answer:
$2,810,467
Explanation:
we need to determine the enterprise value of Minions Technologies
first, the terminal value at year 5 = $400,000 / (18% - 11%) = $5,714,286
then we must find the present value of all future cash flows, including the terminal value
PV of 5 five cash flows = $100,000 x 3.127 (PV annuity factor, 18%, 5 periods) = $312,700
PV of terminal value = $5,714,286 / 1.18⁵ = $2,497,767
total enterprise value = $2,810,467

A company purchased $10,700 of merchandise on June 15 with terms of 2/10, n/45, and FOB shipping point. The freight charge, $850, was added to the invoice amount. On June 20, it returned $1360 of that merchandise. On June 24, it paid the balance owed for the merchandise taking any discount it is entitled to. The cash paid on June 24 equals:______
a. $10,003.
b. $9,224.
c. $11,550.
d. $11,210.
e. $11,11Ο.
Answer:
a. $10,003.
Explanation:
The terms of 2/10, n/45 means that there is a 2% discount if the payment is made within 10 days of the sales date and rhe net credit period is 45 days.
Calculate total invoice value
Total Invoice value = Merchandise value + Freight Charges = $10,700 + $850 = $11,550
As the payment is made on June 24 within the discount period, the discount will be availed
Discount = ( Purchases made - Returns ) x 2% = ( $10,700 - $1,360 ) x 2% = $186.80 = $187
Now the Amount paid
Amount Paid = Invoice value - Return - Discount avaialed = $11,550 - $1360 - 187 = $10,003
During a meeting with a potential customer, you are asked to explain the difference between two different types of systems that your company is developing. Although you feel confident that you correctly explained the systems, after the meeting you realize that you inadvertently confused some of the characteristics, and partly described a third system that the customer had not even asked about. The systems are still prototypes and there is no publicly available information about them, so it is unlikely that the potential customer will realize that you confused the systems and are not up-to-date on your company's products. What should you do?
Answer:
First, update your knowledge of the company's product (especially at this development stage). The purpose is for a demonstration of general knowledge and not for you to provide all the technical details to the potential customers. So, try to stick to the claims about the product's performance and not the details.
Secondarily, request for the documentation of research and development activities. This will provide some literature for the sales and marketing efforts to be effective. Study the available data about the product development, customer requirements, and lifecycle.
Explanation:
In marketing newly developed products, the marketing personnel should bear in mind that effective communication of value to the potential customers is what is required at the initial stage, without too much details. The effort should be to convince customers of the value of the products under development.

Kilt Company used a predetermined overhead rate of $41 per direct labor hour for the year and estimated that direct labor hours would total 6,100 hours. Assume the only inventory balance is an ending Work in Process balance of $17,700. How much overhead was applied during the year
Answer:
$205,000
Explanation:
The above is an incomplete question as we were not given actual direct labor hours. From a similar question, I picked 5,000 as the direct labor hours .
With regards to the above information, applied overhead is computed as;
Applied overhead = Overhead rate × Actual direct labor hour
Given that;
Overhead rate = $41
Actual direct labor hour = 5,000
Therefore,
Applied overhead = $41 × 5,000 = $205,000
