Answer:
$18,000
Explanation:
The computation of overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income is shown below:-
Current Proposed
Sales $800,000 $837,000
(200 × 4000) (200 - 14) × (4,000 + 500)
Variable expenses $160,000 $180,000
(40 × 4000) (40 × (4,000 + 500))
Contribution margin $640,000 $657,000
Fixed expenses $531000 $566,000
($531,000 + $35,000)
Net operating
income $109,000 $91,000
Decrease in net operating income = Current - Proposed
= $109,000 - $91,000
= $18,000
So, for computing the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income we simply applied the above formula.

Okun's law states that
a. a change in the output gap occurs with a change in the rate of unemployment that is smaller in magnitude and in the opposite direction.
b. a change in the output gap occurs with a change in the rate of unemployment that is larger in magnitude and in the opposite direction.
c. inflation causes a decrease in the value of money held by the public.
d. the government may temporarily suspend citizens' rights during periods of hyperinflation in an attempt to maintain security and stability.
Answer:
C, I think is the answer.
Explanation:
Due to historical differences, countries often differ in how quickly a change in actual inflation is incorporated into a change in expected inflation. In a country such as Japan, which has had very little inflation in recent memory, it will take longer for a change in the actual inflation rate to be reflected in a corresponding change in the expected inflation rate. In contrast, in a country such as Zimbabwe, which has recently had very high inflation, a change in the actual inflation rate will immediately be reflected in a corresponding change in the expected inflation rate.

The slope of Japan’s short-run Phillips curve will be a flat downward slope because "it will take longer for a change in the actual inflation rate to be reflected in a corresponding change in the expected inflation rate".
Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
Blossom Co. leased machinery from Young, Inc. on January 1, 2020. The lease term was for 8 years, with equal annual rental payments of $5,800 at the beginning of each year. In addition, the lease provides an option to purchase the machinery at the end of the lease term for $1,500, which Blossom is reasonably certain it will exercise as it believes the fair value of the machinery will be at least $5,000. The machinery has a useful life of 10 years and a fair value of $43,000. The implicit rate of the lease is not known to Blossom. Blossom’s incremental borrowing rate is 9%. Prepare Blossom’s 2020 journal entries
Answer and Explanation:
The Journal entry is shown below:-
1. Right of use Dr, $35,743.93
To lease liability $35,743.93
(Being lease assets and lease liability is recorded)
Working note as attached using spreadsheet
Here we debited the right of use as it increased the assets and we credited the lease liability as it also increased the liability
2. Lease liability Dr, $5,800
To Cash $5,800
(Being payment on lease liability is recorded)
Here, we debited the lease liability as it decrease the liability and we credited the cash as it decreased the asset
3. Interest expenses Dr, $2,694.95
To Lease liability $2,694.95
(Being interest expenses is recorded)
Here we debited the interest expense as it increased the expenses and we credited the leased liability as it increased the liability
4. Amortization expenses Dr, $3,574.39 ($35,743.93 ÷ 10 )
To Right of use $3,574.39
(Being amortization expenses is recorded)
Here we debited the amortization expenses as it increase the expenses and we credited the right of use as it reduced the assets
Working Note
Interest expenses = (Lease liability - First lease payment) × Incremental borrowing rate
= ($35,743.93 - $5,800) × 9%
= $2,694.95
You pay $20,800 to the Laramie Fund which has a NAV of $18.00 per share at the beginning of the year. The fund deducted a front-end load of 3.00%. The securities in the fund increased in value by 12% during the year. The fund's expense ratio is 1.50% and is deducted from year end asset values. What is your rate of return on the fund if you sell your shares at the end of the year
Answer:
6.92%
Explanation:
Beginning investment fund is $20,800.
Now, fund available= Beginning fund(1-front end load)
=20,800(1-0.03)=$20176
Now, the number of shares that can be brought with the available fund
[tex}\text{Number of shares}=\frac{\text{fund available}}{NAV_{beginning}}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{20176}{18}[/tex]
=1120
Now calculating closing NAV
NAV(closing)=NAV(beginning)=(1+increased%)
=$18(1+12%)=18×1.12
=$20.16
Calculate year end asset value
Year end asset value =NAV(closing)×No. of shares
=$20.16×1120=$22579.2
Value of investment after deducting the expense ratio
Closing investment value = Year end asset value×(1-expense ratio)
=$22579.2×(1-1.5%)
=$22240.512
Now,
Return on the fund =[(closing investment value)-(Beginning investment fund)]÷Beginning investment fund
=(22240.512-20800)÷20800
=0.0692
or, 6.92%
Teel Printing uses two measures of activity, press runs, and book set-ups, in the cost formulas in its budgets and performance reports. The cost formula for wages and salaries is $7,850 per month plus $402 per press run plus $952 per book set-up. The company expected its activity in July to be 206 press runs and 113 book set-ups, but the actual activity was 203 press runs and 112 book set-ups. The actual cost for wages and salaries in July was $196,180.
The spending variance for wages and salaries in July would be closest to

Company A sells paper coffee cups to all Caribou Coffee locations in the US. Company B sells dinner plates to Applebee’s. Company A charges $1 for a pack of 100 cups and Company B charges $3 for 1 dinner plate. Tell us exactly what information you would need to determine whether Company A or Company B has higher annual revenue and explain how you would calculate these two figures.
Answer:
Company A and Company B
Determination of annual revenue:
a) The information needed to determine which company has higher annual revenue include:
i) The annual quantities of packs of paper coffee cups sold to the Caribou Coffee locations in the US for a number of years.
ii) The annual quantities of dinner plates sold to Applebee's for the same years as above.
b) The annual revenues can be calculated by multiplying the price for a pack of 100 cups by the annual quantity sold.
Explanation:
Revenue is a function of price and quantity sold. The price is unit selling price and the quantity depends on the period for which revenue is being computed.
Revenue is the earnings from the sale of goods and services. The excess of revenue over cost of sales gives the gross profit, from which expenses would be deducted to arrive at net income after adding other incomes from non-operational activities.

Ending WIP 36000 60 40 21,600 14,400
Total Equivalent Units 471,600 464,400
Transferred Out units are calculated by adding Opening Inventory and production started and subtracting ending inventory units.
Transferred Out units = Opening Inventory+ production started -ending inventory units
Transferred Out units =76,000 + 410,00 - 36000= 450000 units.
2. Cost Per Equivalent Units
Materials Conversion
Cost Of Opening Inventory 117,900 53600
Cost Added 613,080 294,700
Total Costs 624,980 348,300
Equivalent Units 471,600 464,400
Cost per Equivalent Unit 624980/471600 348300/464400
$ 1.33 $ 0.75
3. Cost of Ending Work In Process $ 39528
Materials = 21600 * $ 1.33= $ 28728
Conversion = 14400 * $ 0.75= $10800
We multiply the equivalent number of units with the cost per unit to find the cost.
4. Cost Of Units Transferred Out = $ 936,000
Materials = 450 000 * $ 1.33= $ 598,500
Conversion = 450000 * $ 0.75 = $ 337,500

Total 627 228** 348,300
These calculated costs reconcile with the costs given in the above data.
Materials Conversion
Cost Of Opening Inventory 117,900 53600
Cost Added 613,080 294,700
Total Costs 624,980** 348,300
The difference is in the cost of materials which is actually 624,980** and we found it out to be 627 228** . This is because we rounded the Cost per Equivalent Unit of material from $ 1.325 to $1.33
If we multiply 1.325 * 471,600 we get $ 624870 which is almost the same.

The Refining Department of SweetBeet, Inc. had 79,000 tons of sugar to account for in July. Of the 79,000 tons, 49,000 tons were completed and transferred to the Boiling Department, and the remaining 30,000 tons were 50% complete. The materials required for production are added at the beginning of the process. Conversion costs are added evenly throughout the refining process. The weighted-average method is used. Calculate the total equivalent units of production for direct materials.
Answer:
79,000 tons
Explanation:
When you use the weighted average method for determining equivalent units, the total number of equivalent units = units completed and transferred out + equivalent units in ending inventory.
In this case, since the materials are added at the beginning of the production process, all the units are 100% complete regarding direct materials.
During April, the production department of a process operations system completed and transferred to finished goods 18,000 units that were in process at the beginning of April and 90,000 units that were started and completed in April. April's beginning inventory units were 100% complete with respect to materials and 40% complete with respect to labor. At the end of April, 30,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to labor. The beginning inventory included materials cost of $107,000 and the production department incurred direct materials cost of $329,000 during the month. Compute the direct materials cost per equivalent unit for the department using the weighted-average method
Answer:
Cost per equivalent unit of materials = $3.16
Explanation:
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.
Cost per equivalent unit = cost / total equivalent units
Total units completed and transferred out= 18,000 + 90000= 108,000
Items Unit Equivalent unit
Completed units 108,000 100% × 108,000 = 108,000
Closing inventory 30,000 100% × 30,000 = 30,000
Total equivalent unit of material 138,000
Cost per equivalent unit = Total cost/Total equivalent unit
= (107,000 + 329,000) /138,000 units
= $3.16

In January 2020, Sunland Company, a newly formed company, issued 10300 shares of its $8 par common stock for $13 per share. On July 1, 2020, Sunland Company reacquired 1030 shares of its outstanding stock for $10 per share. The acquisition of these treasury shares decreased total stockholders' equity. increased total stockholders' equity. did not change total stockholders' equity. decreased the number of issued shares.
Answer:
The correct option is the acquisition of these treasury shares decreased total stockholders' equity.
Explanation:
Initially the total stockholders' equity is $133,900 ($13*10,300) which comprised of $82,400 common stock ($8*10,300) $51,500 paid in capital in capital in excess of par value.
By repurchasing 1,030 treasury stock at $10,the total stockholders' equity decrease by $10,300,which leaves a balance of $123,600 ($133,900-$10,300).
In other words,the first option is the correct choice of answer
Lidell Inc. budgeted production of 48,000 personal journals in 20Y6. Each journal requires assembly. Assume that three minutes are required to assemble each journal. If assembly labor costs $13 per hour, determine the direct labor cost budget for 20Y6. Do not round your intermediate calculations but, if required, round your final answer to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
Direct labor cost= $31,200
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 48,000 units
Standard time= 3 minutes per unit
Rate= $13 per hour
First, we need to calculate the number of hours required:
The proportion of minuted per hour= 3/60= 0.05
Number of hours= 48,000*0.05= 2,400 hours

Assume the economy of country C produces hotdogs and buns in the following quantities and prices in 2016 and 2017. Assume also that 2016 is the base year and the real GDP will be calculated using 2016 prices. What is the real GDP 2017? Hot Dogs Buns Quantity Price Quantity Price Year 2016 (base year) 6 million $2 4 million $1 Year 2017 8 million $3 6 million $2 a. $22 million. b. $26 million c. $16 million. d. $36 million.
Answer:
Option (a).
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
Real GDP = Base Year Price × Current Year Quantity
Real GDP in 2016= $2 × 6 million + $1 × 4 million
= $12 million + $4 million = $16 million
Real GDP in 2017 = $2 × 8 million + $1 × 6 million
= $16 million + $6 million = $22 million
According to the analysis, the real GDP in 2017 is $22 million. So (a) option is correct.
Bonnie Jo purchased a used camera (five-year property) for use in her sole proprietorship. The basis of the camera was $3,000. Bonnie Jo used the camera in her business 60 percent of the time and used it for personal purposes the rest of the time during the first year. Calculate Bonnie Jo's depreciation deduction during the first year, assuming the sole proprietorship had a loss during the year. (Bonnie did not place the property in service in the last quarter.)
Answer:
$360
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation deduction during the first year is shown below:
= Basis of the camera × given percentage × weightage
= $3,000 × 60% × 20%
= $360
Since the 60% is used for business and 40% used for personal
And there is a recovery period of assets of 5 years so half year convention period applies
The president of Ravens Inc. attended a seminar about the contribution margin model and returned to her company full of enthusiasm about it. She requested that last year’s traditional model income statement be revised, and she received the following report: Division Total Company A B C Sales $ 484,000 $ 188,000 $ 128,000 $ 168,000 Variable expenses 268,000 112,000 66,000 90,000 Contribution margin $ 216,000 $ 76,000 $ 62,000 $ 78,000 Fixed expenses 172,000 54,000 68,000 50,000 Net income (loss) $ 44,000 $ 22,000 $ (6,000 ) $ 28,000 The president was told that the fixed expenses of $172,000 included $94,500 that had been split evenly between divisions because they were general corporate expenses. After looking at the statement, the president exclaimed, "I knew it! Division B is a drag on the whole company. Close it down!"
Evaluate the President's remark.
Answer and Explanation:
a. The president remark in case of the allocated fixed expenses should be ignored the misleading result as it is seen that the division B has suffered a loss of $6,000 due to which the president exclaimed "I knew it!.
Moreover the president ignored the given information i.e $172,000 included $94,500 that had been split evenly between divisions as they are classified as a general corporate expenses
So if it is split evenly the general corporate expenses for division B is $31,500 which is come from by dividing the $94,500 from 3 divisions
And if we do not allocated the expenses so all divisions would come in profit
Waterways puts much emphasis on cash flow when it plans for capital investments. The company chose its discount rate of 8% based on the rate of return it must pay its owners and creditors. Using that rate, Waterways then uses different methods to determine the best decisions for making capital outlays.
In 2017 Waterways is considering buying five new backhoes to replace the backhoes it now has. The new backhoes are faster, cost less to run, provide for more accurate trench digging, have comfort features for the operators, and have 1-year maintenance agreements to go with them. The old backhoes are working just fine, but they do require considerable maintenance. The backhoe operators are very familiar with the old backhoes and would need to learn some new skills to use the new backhoes.
The following information is available to use in deciding whether to purchase the new backhoes.
Old Backhoes New Backhoes
Purchase cost when new $90,000 $200,000
Salvage value now $42,000
Investment in major overhaul needed in next year $55,000
Salvage value in 8 years $15,000 $90,000
Remaining life 8 years 8 years
Net cash flow generated each year $30,425 $43,900
Required:
1. Evaluate in the following ways whether to purchase the new equipment or overhaul the old equipment. (Hint: For the old machine, the initial investment is the cost of the overhaul. For the new machine, subtract the salvage value of the old machine to determine the initial cost of the investment.)
a. Using the net present value method for buying new or keeping the old
b. Using the payback method for each choice. (Hint: For the old machine, evaluate the payback of an overhaul.)
c. Comparing the profitability index for each choice.
d. Calculate the internal rate of return for the new and old blackhoes.
e. Comparing the internal rate of return for each choice to the required 8% discount rate.

On January 2, 2020, Concord Corporation replaced its boiler with a more efficient one. The following information was available on that date: Purchase price of new boiler $140500 Carrying amount of old boiler 8500 Fair value of old boiler 3200 Installation cost of new boiler 21600 The old boiler was sold for $3200. What amount should Concord capitalize as the cost of the new boiler
Answer:
The amount that Concord should capitalize as the cost of the new boiler is $162,100
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
The price of purchasing a new boiler = $140500
The amount of old boiler = 8500
The cost of installation of new boiler = $21600

A company determined that the budgeted cost of producing a product is $30 per unit. On June 1, there were 86000 units on hand, the sales department budgeted sales of 370000 units in June, and the company desires to have 160000 units on hand on June 30. The budgeted cost of goods sold for June would be
Answer:
The budgeted cost of goods sold for June would be $ 13,320,000
Explanation:
Budgeted cost per unit = $30
Sales budget = 370,000 units
Less: Beginning inventory = 86,000 units
Add: Ending inventory = 160,000 units
Therefore budgeted cost of goods sold for June = (370,000 - 86,000 + 160,000) × $30
= 444,000 × $30
= $13,320,000

The standard price per gram for Whiplash, Ltd. is closest to:
Answer:
$2 per gram.
Explanation:
We are given the following parameters in the question above; the production of output in July: Actual number of units of output produced = 7,800 units, the Materials quantity variance = $2,609, the favorable (F) Materials spending variance = $3,744, the Favorable (F) Standard amount of materials used per unit of output = 5.0 grams per unit , the Actual total materials purchased/used = 37,830 grams and the Actual price per gram purchased/used = $2.20 per gram.
(37,830 × standard price) - (37,830 × 2.2 ) =$3,744.
Thus, (37,830 × standard price) = 79482.
Approximately, standard price = $2 per gram
Answer:
The standard price per gram for Whiplash, Ltd. is closest to $2.23 per gram
Explanation:
In order to calculate the The standard price per gram for Whiplash, Ltd we would have to use the following formula:
Material quantity variance=(standard quantity-Actual quantity)×standard price
