At December 31, 2020, Suffolk Corporation had an estimated warranty liability of $105,000 for accounting purposes and $0 for tax purposes. (The warranty costs are not deductible until paid.) The effective tax rate is 20%. Compute the amount Suffolk should report as a deferred tax asset at December 31, 2020.

Answers

Answer:

Deferred tax asset = $21000

Explanation:

Given the warranty liability = $105000

Effective tax rate = 20%

The deferred tax asset can be calculated by calculating the effective tax from the warranty liability. Therefore, just multiply the effective tax rate to the warranty liability.

Deferred tax asset = Effective tax rate x Warranty liability

Deferred tax asset = 20% x $105000

Deferred tax asset = $21000

Influence tactics can be regarded as steps that can be taken by people in order to exert influence on others in a particular organization, thereby bringing about achieving their goals. If successfully applied, influence tactics can help junior managers or lower level that lack substantial sources of power to be able to exert impact on both behavior and decisions of others within that organization.

Silent Authority can be regarded as silent application of authority, which can be elaborated as when someone complies with a particular request as a result of the requester’s legitimate hierarchical power and role expectations of the target person. This condition is often been referred to as deference to authority. As regards to deference, it takes place, where one comply with ones boss in completion of particular task, let say this task falls within one's job scope and ones boss has the right in making this request, then we can say the influence strategy works without persuasion or negotiation.

The cost of the ending inventory       $11,050     $8,500      $10,200

The cost of goods sold                    $24,950   $27,500     $25,800

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Beginning inventory 100 units           $10,000 $100

Purchase of 200 units                         26,000 $130

Total units available for sale = 300 $36,000

Ending inventory - 85 units

Units sold = 215 units

Weighted-average cost per unit = $120 ($36,000/300)

FIFO:

Cost of goods sold = $24,950 ($36,000 - $11,050)

Ending inventory = $11,050 (85 * $130)

LIFO:

Cost of goods sold = $27,500 ($36,000 - $8,500)

Ending inventory = $8,500 (85 * $100)

Weighted-average:

Cost of goods sold = $25,800 (215 * $120)

Ending inventory = $10,200 (85 * $120)

A 5-year treasury bond with a coupon rate of 8% (paid semiannually) has a face value of $1,000. What is the semiannual coupon payment

Answers

Answer:

$40

Explanation:

Coupon payment = Face value * Coupon rate * 1/2

Coupon payment = $1,000 * 8% * 1/2

Coupon payment = $1,000 * 0.08 * 1/2

Coupon payment = $40

So, the semiannual coupon payment is $40.

Other things equal, compared to using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) inventory cost method, using the last-in-first-out (LIFO) method in a rising price environment will result in a higher:____________
A. quick ratio.
B. inventory turnover ratio.
C. gross profit margin.

Answers

Answer:

B. inventory turnover ratio.

Explanation:

My best guess is that the inventory turnover ratio will be greater when LIFO is used during rising price environment because COGS will be higher and the inventory costs will be lower under LIFO than under FIFO.

The Alpha Division has sales of $635,000, variable expenses of $345,800, and traceable fixed expenses of $135,900. The total amount of common fixed expenses not traceable to the individual divisions is $138,200. What is the company's net operating income?

Answers

Answer:

Net operating income= $107,700

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beta Division:

Sales= $325,000

Variable expense= $159,600

Traceable fixed expense= $72,800

Alpha Division:

Sales= $635,000

Variable expense= $345,800

Traceable fixed expense= $135,900

We need to calculate the net operating income:

Beta division partial income= 325,000 - 159,600 - 72,800= 92,600

Alpha division partial income= 635,000 - 345,800 - 135,900= 153,300

Common fixed expense= (138,200)

Net operating income= $107,700

Cost of Goods Sold Direct Materials Available for Use 98000 Cost of Goods Manufactured 199000
Cost of Goods Available for Sale
Total Operating Costs
Cost of Goods Sold

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the cost of goods manufactured using the following formula:

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

cost of goods manufactured= 42,000 + (28,000 + 70,000 - 30,000) + 86,000 + 38,000 - 35,000

cost of goods manufactured= $199,000

Now, the cost of goods sold:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

We do not have information regarding the beginning and ending finished goods inventory. But, suppose the beginning inventory equals $45,000 and the ending inventory $30,000:

COGS= 45,000 + 199,000 - 30,000

COGS= $214,000

A- In some countries, like China and India, it is not customary to publicly disclose company financial information.
B- In countries with high power distance, where inequality between managers and employees is expected, companies may have difficulty using open-book management.
C- Employees in some countries are not sufficiently well educated to understand company financial information.

Answers

Answer:

A- In some countries, like China and India, it is not customary to publicly disclose company financial information. B- In countries with high power distance, where inequality between managers and employees is expected, companies may have difficulty using open-book management.

Explanation:

Using open book management would mean disclosing financial information to ensure that employees know how best to use that information to push the company forward. If this is looked down upon in a country like in China and India, Recology would not be able to properly implement its open-book management style so it should take that into consideration.

This is the same problem as countries with high power distance. Inequality is expected and even encouraged between managers and employees yet Recology practices open-book management which actually tries to reduce this equality so Recology needs to properly consider such countries before they move in.

The managers must take into consideration when deciding where and how to operate is that;

In countries with high power distance, where inequality between managers and employees is expected, companies may have difficulty using open-book management.

When there is high power distances, lower-ranking citizens and employees is prone to accept and expect that power will not be distributed equally, and this also makes politicians and business leaders are distanced or isolated from others.

In business, managers need consider the following; information, time, personnel, equipment, and supplies and and also note any limiting factors.

Managers should boast the morale of employees so as to focus on their individual job performance and reward them for individual result.

c. $2960 per direct labor hour
d. $712 per direct labor hour
e. $0.14 per direct labor hour

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $36.72 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (3,700,000 + 890,000) / 125,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 4,590,000 / 125,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $36.72 per direct labor hour

Answers

Answer:

Bart Inc.

The initial value of the machine is:

= $114,240.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date of purchase of machine from Fell Corp. = December 31, 2016

Annual payments for a non-interest-bearing note = $20,000

Appropriate present value of the annuity due = 5.712

PV of the annual payments for 8 years = $114,240 ($20,000 * 5.712)

First payment date = December 31, 2016

Period of payments = 8 years

Prevailing interest rate for this type of note = 11%

Check from an online financial calculator:

N (# of periods)  8

I/Y (Interest per year)  11

PMT (Periodic Payment)  20000

FV (Future Value)  0

Results

PV = $114,243.93

Sum of all periodic payments = $160,000.00

Total Interest = $45,756.07

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

(Advanced analysis) Answer the question on the basis of the following information for a mixed open economy. The letters Y, Ca, Ig, Xn, G, and T stand for GDP, consumption, gross investment, net exports, government purchases, and net taxes respectively. Figures are in billions of dollars.

Ca = 25 + 0.75(Y - T)

Ig = Ig0 = 50

Xn = Xn0 = 10

G = G0 = 70

T = T0 = 30

Refer to the information. If government desired to raise the equilibrium GDP to $650, it could:

a. raise G by $45 or reduce T by $10.

b. raise G by $40 and reduce T by $30.

c. raise G by $30 or reduce T by $40.

d. raise both and T by $40.

e. reduce G by $30 and increase T by $40.

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Equilibrium GDP (Y) can be obtained as follows:

Y = C + G + I + Xn …………………….. (1)

Substituting all the values in the question into equation (1) and solve for Y, we have:

Y = 25 + 0.75(Y - 30) + 70 + 50 + 10

Y = 0.75Y - 22.50 + 155

Y – 0.75Y = 132.50

0.25Y = 132.50

Y = 132.50 / 0.25

Y = 530

Therefore, we have:

Y = Current equilibrium GDP = $530

Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required = Desired equilibrium GDP – Current equilibrium GDP = 650 - 530 = 120

From the question, we have:

Ca = 25 + 0.75(Y - T) ………………. (2)

The 0.75 in equation (2) is the marginal propensity to consume (MPC). Therefore, we have:

MPC = 0.75

Expenditure multiplier = 1 / (1 - 0.75) = 4

Tax multiplier = - MPC / (1 – MPC) = -0.75 / (1 – 0.75) = -3

Amount of increase in G or government expenditure required = Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required / Expenditure multiplier = 120 / 4 = $30

Amount of tax cut or decrease in T required = Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required / Tax multiplier = 120 / (-3) = -$40

Therefore, correct option is c. raise G by $30 or reduce T by $40.

Would the company purchase the new games?

Answers

Answer:

     a. 5 years

     b. Yes they will because the payback period is 5 years.

Explanation:

a. Payback period

First calculate the annual cash inflow:

= Net income + Depreciation

= 66,500 + 28,500

= $95,000

The investment cost was $475,000

Payback period = Investment cost / Annual cash inflow

= 475,000 / 95,000

= 5 years

b. The company will purchase the games because they have a payback period of 5 years.
