Flesch Corporation produces and sells two products. In the most recent month, Product C90B had sales of $24,080 and variable expenses of $6,020. Product Y45E had sales of $26,660 and variable expenses of $13,330. The fixed expenses of the entire company were $23,200. If the sales mix were to shift toward Product C90B with total dollar sales remaining constant, the overall break-even point for the entire company:_________.

a. would not change.

b. would decrease.

c. would increase.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: c. would increase

Explanation:

Given Data:

Sales of product C90B= $24,080

Variable expense = $6,020

Sales of Product Y45E = $26,660 Variable expenses = $13,330.

Fixed expenses of entire company = $23,200

Therefore:

Contribution Margin: Total Contribution ÷ Total Sales

Product C90B:

= $( 24,080 - 6,020 ) ÷ $24,080 * 100

= 75%

Product Y45E

= $( 26660 - 13330 ) ÷ $26660 * 100

= 50%

Since the contribution margin of product C90B is greater than Y45E, they would be an increase.

The stock of Cooper Corporation is​ 70% owned by Carole and​ 30% owned by​ Carole's brother, Chris. During​ 2017, Chris transferred property​ (basis of​ $100,000 and FMV of​ $120,000) as a contribution to the capital of Cooper. During February​ 2018, Cooper adopted a plan of liquidation and subsequently made a pro rata distribution of the property back to Carole and Chris. At the time of the​ liquidation, the property had an FMV of​ $80,000. What amount of loss can be recognized by Cooper on the distribution of​ property?

Answers

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

Since 100% of Cooper Corporation's stock were owned by Carole and Chris (who are siblings), then no one can recognize any loss or gain from the contribution of property (nor the distribution of property). Under section 351, no gain or loss can be recognized for the contribution of property in exchange for stocks in a controlled corporation.

Since the contribution was made through a carryover basis transaction less than 5 years before the liquidation, the distribution is carried out in the same way.

Andy Anderson is the only supplier of email updates on avalanche conditions in the mountains above the two towns of Vanee and Keno. The marginal cost of producing these updates is zero (with zero fixed costs) and the inverse demand for these updates in Vanee is p = 42-q and p = 9-q in Keno. Suppose that in each of the two towns, all of the demand comes from one customer. Andy cannot identify which customer is which. To get around this, he creates two kinds of packages, one containing 42 updates and one containing 9. He allows his customers to simply buy one and only one of the kind of package that they prefer. What is the maximum price Andy could charge for the large package if he wants the Vanee customer to buy the package of 42 and the Keno customer to buy the package of 9?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

He will charge for smaller package Equal to consumer surplus of keno customer with q = 9  

Price of small package = 1 / 2 * 9 * 9

                                       =40.5

If veno willingness to pay for 9 updates is

= 1 / 2 * 9 * 9 + 9 * (42 - 9)

= 40.5 + 9 * 33

= 40.5 + 297 = 337.5

So he will get surplus of (337.5 - 40.5 = 297 by buying smaller package.

Veno willingness to pay for larger package = 1/2 * 42 * 42 = 882

To make veno buy larger package ,andy need to make sure that veno also get same CONSUMERs surplus by buying larger package.

So price for larger package = 882 - 297 = 585

A manufacturing company that has only one product has established the following standards for its variable manufacturing overhead.

Standard hours per unit of output 3.20 DLHs Standard variable overhead rate $ 10.55 per DLH The following data pertain to operations for the last month: Actual direct labor-hours 9,400 DLHs Actual total variable manufacturing overhead cost $ 95,780 Actual output 2,700 units What is the variable overhead efficiency variance for the month?

Answers

Answer:

 Variable overhead efficiency variance $ 8,018 Unfavorable

Explanation:

Variable overhead efficiency variance: Variable overhead efficiency variance aims to determine whether or not their exist savings or extra cost incurred on variable overhead as a result of workers being faster or slower that expected.  

Since the variable overhead is charged using labour hours, any amount by which the actual labour hours differ from the standard allowable hours would result in a variance

Balser Corporation manufactures and sells a number of products, including a product called JYMP. Results for last year for the manufacture and sale of JYMPs are as follows: Sales $ 960,000 Less expenses: Variable production costs $ 464,000 Sales commissions 144,000 Salary of product manager 100,000 Fixed product advertising 160,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead 132,000 1,000,000 Net operating loss $ (40,000 ) Balser is trying to decide whether to discontinue the manufacture and sale of JYMPs. All expenses other than fixed manufacturing overhead are avoidable if the product is dropped. None of the fixed manufacturing overhead is avoidable. Assume that dropping Product JYMP would result in a $90,000 increase in the contribution margin of other products. If Balser chooses to discontinue JYMP, the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) of eliminating this product should be:

Answers

Answer:

$2,000 disadvantage

Explanation:

The computation of the annual financial advantage or disadvantage of eliminating the product is shown below:

Sales                                            $960,000

Less Variable production costs    ($464,000)

Less Sales commission                    ($144,000)

Less salary of product manager    ($100,000)

Less fixed product advertising    ($160,000.00)

Less contribution margin from other products        ($90,000)

Income from JYMP                         2,000.00

This is the financial disadvantage for eliminating the product of $2,000 so the company should continue to manufactured the JYMP

And the fixed cost is not considered here as it is not relevant because it has fixed in nature does not have create any impact whether company should manufactured the product or not

On September 1, Jenkins Company purchased $2,520 of supplies on account. By the end of the calendar year, $2,000 of supplies remains. Required: 1. How much has been expensed by the end of the year? 2. How much will be in the Supplies account at the end of the year, after the adjusting entries have been prepared and posted?

Answers

Answer:

The amount expensed by the end of the year is $520.The balance in the supplies account at the end of the year, after the adjusting entries have been prepared and posted is $2,000.

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of supplies that was expensed, we simply deduct the closing balance of $2,000 from the opening balance of $2,520, as follows: $2,520 - $2,000 = $520. So, the amount of $520 was expensed during the year and the appropriate entries recorded will be:

Debit Supplies expense $520

Credit Supplies $520

(To record the amount of supplies expensed)

Paddle​ Paradise, Inc. sells 2 comma 000 canoes per year at a sales price of $ 470 per unit. It sells in a highly competitive market and uses target pricing. The company has calculated its target full product cost at $ 800 comma 000 per year. Fixed costs are $ 320 comma 000 per year and cannot be reduced. What is the target variable cost per unit assuming units sold are equal to units​ produced

Answers

Answer:

Target unitary variable cost= $240 per unit

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales in units= 2,000

Selling price= $470

Total cost= $800,000 per year

Fixed costs= $320,000 per year.

First, we need to calculate the total variable cost:

Total variable cost= total cost - total fixed costs

Total variable cost= 800,000 - 320,000

Total variable cost= 480,000

Now, we can calculate the target unitary variable cost:

Target unitary variable cost= 480,000/2,000

Target unitary variable cost=$240 per unit

Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances At the beginning of June, Bezco Toy Company budgeted 10,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct materials and direct labor costs as follows: Direct materials $10,500 Direct labor 4,800 Total $15,300 The standard materials price is $0.7 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $12 per hour. At the end of June, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows: Actual direct materials $9,500 Actual direct labor 4,400 Total $13,900 There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct materials inventory balances in June. Bezco Toy Company actually produced 8,800 units during June. Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal places, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

Answers

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance = -$260 Unfavorable

Direct labor time variance = -$176 Unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances is shown below:-

Direct material quantity variance = (Standard Direct material ÷ Company budgeted × Produced units) - Actual direct material

= ($10,500 ÷ 10,000 × 8,800) - $9,500

= ($1.05 × 8,800) - $9,500

= $9,240 - $9,500

= -$260 Unfavorable

Direct labor time variance = (Standard Direct labor ÷ Company budgeted × Produced units) - Actual direct labor

= ($4,800 ÷ 10,000 × 8,800) - $4,400

= $0.48 × 8,800) - $4,400

= $4,224 - $4,400

= -$176 Unfavorable

Therefore we have applied the above formula.

Which of the following situations leads to an unplanned increase in inventories of $2.0 trillion? A. real GDP = $5.0 trillion and aggregate planned expenditures = $7.0 trillion B. real GDP = $5.0 trillion and aggregate planned expenditures = $5.0 trillion C. real GDP = $6.0 trillion and aggregate planned expenditures = $4.0 trillion D. real GDP = $8.0 trillion and aggregate planned expenditures = $5.0 trillion E. More information is needed about planned investment and actual investment.

Answers

Answer: C. real GDP = $6.0 trillion and aggregate planned expenditures = $4.0 trillion

Explanation:

Unplanned Inventory arises when Real GDP is larger than Planned Expenditure because it must satisfy the below formula,

Real GDP = Planned + Unplanned expenditure

For Option C,

Real GDP = 6.0 trillion,

Planned expenditure = 4.0 trillion

Unplanned Expenditure = Real GDP - Planned Expenditure

= $6.0 trillion - $4.0 trillion

= $2.0 trillion

Therefore Option C is correct as it led to a $2.0 trillion increase in Expenditure which translates to inventory.

Suppose that annual output in year 1 in a 3-good economy is 3 quarts of ice cream, 1 bottle of shampoo, and 3 jars of peanut butter. In year 2, the output mix changes to 5 quarts of ice cream, 2 bottles of shampoo, and 2 jars of peanut butter. If the prices in both years are $4 per quart for ice cream, $3 per bottle of shampoo, and $2 per jar of peanut butter, what was the economy's GDP in year 1? What was its GDP in year 2?

Answers

Answer:

a) Adjusting entries are end-of-the-period journal entries used to recognize income or expenses that occurred but are not accurately displayed in your records.  They are made to comply with the accrual concept and the matching principle, which demand that expenses and income should matched to the period they were incurred, whether paid for or not.

b) The three-sided ledger accounts show the debit, credit, and balance columns.  This means that it shows the balance per transaction of any particular account.

c) Mortgage interest is calculated as (6% of $37,200)/12, so as to accrue for one month only.  Other expenses are calculated for one month only.

To measure value, the concept of time value of money is used a. To determine the interest rate paid on corporate debt. b. To bring the future benefits and costs of a project, measured by its expected profits, back to the present. c. To bring the future benefits and costs of a project, measured by its cash flows, back to the present. d. To ensure that expected future profits exceed current profits today

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be Option C.

Explanation:

The time value of money seems to be the method used mostly for estimating the current value including all possible retained earnings. Those are classified underneath the strategies of capital budgeting.It's being used to know whether the project is feasible. It measures up the preliminary project expense to future revenues by reducing investment returns.

The other available scenarios have no connection with the particular circumstance. So option C seems to be the correct answer to that.

Pricing Strategy, Sales Variances Eastman, Inc., manufactures and sells three products: R, S, and T. In January, Eastman, Inc., budgeted sales of the following. Budgeted Volume Budgeted Price Product R 125,900 $26 Product S 156,500 22 Product T 22,500 21 At the end of the year, actual sales revenue for Product R and Product S was $3,220,000 and $3,358,000, respectively. The actual price charged for Product R was $25 and for Product S was $20. Only $11 was charged for Product T to encourage more consumers to buy it, and actual sales revenue equaled $645,150 for this product. Required: 1. Calculate the sales price and sales volume variances for each of the three products based on the original budget.

What pricing strategy is Eastman, Inc., following for this product? Check My Work

Answers

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Sales price variance = (Actual price - Budgeted price) * Actual units sold

Product R : ($25 - $26) * 123000 = $123000 unfavorable

Product S:($20 - $22) * 162700 = $325400 unfavorable

Product T: ($10 - $20) * 54000 = $540000 unfavorable

Sales volume variance = (Actual units - Budgeted units) * Standard price

Product R : (120000 - 123000) * 26 = $78000 favorable

Product S:(150000 - 162700) * 22 = $279400 favorable

Product T: (20000 - 54000) * 20 = $680000 favorable

Notes:

Actual units:

Product R = $3075000/ $25 = 123000

Product S = $3254000/$20 = 162700

Product T = $540000/$10 = 54000 units

Debtors are interested in the times interest earned ratio because they want to a.know the tax effect of lending to a corporation b.be sure their debt is backed by collateral c.know what rate of interest the corporation is paying d.have adequate protection against a potential drop in earnings jeopardizing their interest payments

Answers

Answer: d.have adequate protection against a potential drop in earnings jeopardizing their interest payments

Explanation:

The Times Interest Earned Ratio is a measure that allows for the analysis of if a company can keep up it's debt payments.

It is calculated by dividing the Earnings before Interest and Tax by the Interest Expense of the debt.

The higher the number, the better because it means that they can keep up debt payments several times over.

As Debtors therefore, this figure is important because missing a debt payment is very bad for credit ratings and this matrix helps them realise if they can keep paying for debt even if their Earnings drop.

Zanny Moldings has the following estimated costs for the upcoming year:
Direct materials used $25,800
Direct labor costs $62,600
Salary of factory supervisor $37,600
Advertising expense $33,800
Heating and lighting costs for factory $22,000
Depreciation on factory equipment $5600
Sales commissions $8100
The company estimates that 2100 direct labor hours will be worked in the upcoming year, while 2700 machine hours will be used during the year. The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per direct labor hour is closest to:____________
A) $72.
B) $51.
C) $29.
D) $31.

Answers

Answer:

D) $31.

Explanation:

The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:  

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead ÷ estimated direct labor hours

where,

Estimated manufacturing overhead is

= Salary of factory supervisor + Heating and lighting costs for factory + Depreciation on factory equipment

= $37,600 + $22,000 + $5,600

= $65,200

And, the direct labor hours is 2,100

So, the predetermined overhead rate is

= $65,200 ÷ 2,100

= $31

Analysis reveals that a company had a net increase in cash of $22,750 for the current year. Net cash provided by operating activities was $20,500; net cash used in investing activities was $11,250 and net cash provided by financing activities was $13,500. If the year-end cash balance is $27,750, the beginning cash balance was: Multiple Choice $5,000. $17,750. $50,500. $45,500. $44,500.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer = $5,000

Explanation:

First of all, let us find the difference between the total cash provided and the total cash used up within the period:

Total cash provided = operating activities + financing activities

Total cash provided = 20,500 + 13,500 = $34,000

Total cash used up = investing activities = $11,250

Retained balance from the activities of the period = Total cash provided - Total cash used up

= 34,000 - 11,250 = $22,750

Retained balance from the activities of the period = $22,750

However, we are told that the year-end cash balance = $27,750. This means that the excess cash on the retained balance from operating activities within the period is from the beginning cash balance, and this is calculated as follows:

year-end cash balance = Retained balance from the activities  + beginning cash balance

27,750 = 22,750 + beginning cash balance

∴ beginning cash balance = 27,750 - 22,750 = $5,000

∴ beginning cash balance = $5,000

Which factors are relevant to the time a consumer spends looking at a product on the shelf prior to selection? The article "Effects of Base Price Upon Search Behavior of Consumers in a Supermarket" (J. Econ. Psycho., 2003: 637-652) reported the following data on elapsed time (sec) for fabric softener purchasers and washing-up liquid purchasers; the former product is significantly more expensive than the latter. These products were chosen because they are similar with respect to allocated shelf space and number of alternative brands. Calculate a 90% confidence interval for the true difference between the means for the two products.

Answers

Answer:

Shown below.

Explanation:

In this case we need to compute a 90% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean elapsed time (sec) for fabric softener purchasers and washing-up liquid purchasers.

It is provided that these products were chosen because they are similar with respect to allocated shelf space and number of alternative brands.

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for the true difference between the means, when the population standard deviations are not known, is given as follows:

[tex]CI=(\bar x_{1}-\bar x_{2})\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n_{1}+n_{2}-2)}\times S_{p}\times\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}}}[/tex]

Here,

[tex]\bar x_{1}=\text{sample mean for fabric softener purchasers}\\\bar x_{2}=\text{sample mean for washing-up liquid purchasers}\\S_{p}=\text{pooled standard deviation}[/tex]

The formula to compute the value of [pooled standard deviation is:

[tex]S_{p}=\sqrt{\frac{(n_{1}-1)s_{1}^{2}+(n_{2}-1)s_{2}^{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}-2}}[/tex]

Which of the following statements is FALSE? Group of answer choices The right discount rate for a cash flow is the rate of return available in the market on other investments of comparable risk and term. To compensate for the risk that they will receive less than promised if the firm defaults, investors demand a lower interest rate than the rate on U.S. Treasuries. The equivalent after-tax interest rate is r(1 - τ). The actual cash flow that the investor will get to keep will be reduced by the amount of any tax payments.

Answers

Answer:

To compensate for the risk that they will receive less than promised if the firm defaults, investors demand a lower interest rate than the rate on U.S. Treasuries.

Explanation:

Investors are risk averse, this means that they will always prefer those investments with lower risks. Since US treasuries are considered the safest investments,  they are used to calculate the risk free rate.

When investors invest in other securities (not US government) they will always demand a higher return because a private entity or even a state or local government can default on a their debt. That difference between the return yielded by a US security and the return from any other investment is called the risk premium.

Answer:

The multiple choices are as follows:

Group of answer choices:

A. Present Value

B. Future Value

C. Discounted Value

D. Annuity

E. Lump Sum

The correct option is C,discounted value

Explanation:

The worth of the cash flow which is $1,000 is given with reference to the worth in 5 years' terms,hence restating the cash flow to its worth in two years' time is discounting to its two years' worth.

The answer cannot be present value since the cash flow is not being discounted to today's equivalent amount.

Also,future value is not correct since future value of $1,000 is already provided in the question

Great Adventures Problem
[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]
Tony and Suzie see the need for a rugged all-terrain vehicle to transport participants and supplies. They decide to purchase a used Suburban on July 1, 2022, for $15,600. They expect to use the Suburban for five years and then sell the vehicle for $6,300. The following expenditures related to the vehicle were also made on July 1, 2022:_________.
1. The company pays $2,700 to GEICO for a one-year insurance policy.
2. The company spends an extra $6,600 to repaint the vehicle, placing the Great Adventures logo on the front hood, back, and both sides. An additional $2,900 is spent on a deluxe roof rack and a trailer hitch.
3. The painting, roof rack, and hitch are all expected to increase the future benefits of the vehicle for Great Adventures. In addition, on October 22, 2022, the company pays $2,200 for basic vehicle maintenance related to changing the oil, replacing the windshield wipers, rotating the tires, and inserting a new air filter.
Great Adventures
4. Record the depreciation expense and any other adjustments related to the vehicle on December 31, 2022. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The Journal entry is shown below:-

Amount should be capitalized for new vehicle = Cost + Painting and new logo cost + Deluxe Roof rack and trailer hitch

= $15,600 + $6,600 + $2,900

= $25,100

We took the cost of painting and deluxe roof and trailer hitch costs into account as they are supposed to increase the vehicle's future benefits.

Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Number of Years

= ($25,100 - $6,300) ÷ 5

= $3,760 per year

In the year 2022 vehicle is used only for 6 months (July to Dec), depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 is

= $3,760 × 6 ÷ 12

= $1,880

So, the Journal entry is

Depreciation expense Dr, $1,880

         To Accumulated Depreciation $1,880

(Being depreciation provided for the year 2022 is recorded)

Therefore for recording the depreciation provided for the year 2022 we simply debited the depreciation expenses while we credited the accumulated depreciation.

The journal entry will include a depreciation account as well as accumulated depreciation.

What is depreciation?

Depreciation can be defined as the amount deducted from the asset because of the wear and tear of the asset after its use Which will reduce the price of the asset.

Capitalization for a new car should be calculated as follows: Cost + Painting and Logo Cost + Deluxe Roof Rack and Trailer Hitch

= $15,600 + $6,600 + $2,900

= $25,100

We factored in the price of the painting, a luxurious roof, and a trailer hitch because such expenses should raise the car's potential future value.

Depreciation is calculated as (Cost - Salvage Value) x Years.

= ($25,100 - $6,300) ÷ 5

= $3,760 annually

For the year ending December 31, 2022, the depreciation expense for the automobile operated for only 6 months (July to December) is

= $3,760 × 6 ÷ 12

= $1,880

The journal entry is therefore

depreciation costs (dr.)  $1,880

accumulated depreciation     $1,880
