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

Answers

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

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.

Answers

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

b. 248,000 lbs.
c. 228,000 lbs.
d. 284,000 lbs.
e. 300,000 lbs.

Answers

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

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

Answers

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

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.

Answers

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

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.

Answers

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)

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.

Answers

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

How did she commit the fraud

Answers

Unclear question. However, I answered based on the case above.

Answer:

by stealing from the utility cash payments

Explanation:

Recall we are told that the utility payments are received in both cash and check form.

Hence, it is possible for the clerk to steal from the cash utility payment rather than the checks because it can easily go unnoticed by customers, or differences may be overlooked by some, and so she was able to commit this fraud.

Answers

Answer:

C. $1.78 $1.75

Explanation:

Calculation for What amounts should Strauch report as earnings per share in its 2025 and 2024 comparative income statements issued early in 2026

Calculation for What amounts should Strauch report as earnings per share in its 2025

First step is to calculate the Weighted average shares for year 2025

Weighted average shares 2025 = [100,000 + 20,000(9/12)]÷2

Weighted average shares 2025=(100,000+15,000)*2

Weighted average shares 2025=115,000*2

Weighted average shares 2025= 230,000

Now let calculate the Earnings per share for year 2025

2025 Earnings per share for year= $410,000/230,000

2025 Earnings per share for year= $1.78

Therefore the 2025 Earnings per share for year will be $1.78

Calculation for What amounts should Strauch report as earnings per share in its 2024

First step is to calculate the Weighted average shares for year 2024

Weighted average shares 2024= 100,000(2)

Weighted average shares 2024= 200,000

Now let calculate the Earnings per share for year 2024

2024 Earnings per share = $350,000/200,000 2024 Earnings per share= $1.75

Therefore the Earnings per share for year 2024 will be $1.75

Answers

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

= -37.03%

Lucas Diving Supplies Company, in its first year of business, had labor costs of $57,000, overhead costs of $88,000, materials purchases of $25,000, and ending Materials and Work-in-Process Inventories of $3,000 and $5,000, respectively. What is the amount of cost of goods manufactured in the first year of operations

Answers

Answer:

$162,000

Explanation:

The amount of cost of goods manufactured is computed as

= Labor cost + Direct materials purchased + overhead costs - ending balance of materials - ending balance of work in process

= $57,000 + $25,000 + $88,000 - $3,000 - $5,000

= $162,000

Hence, the cost of goods manufactured is $162,000

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

Answers

,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

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

Answers

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.
