Answer:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $4,560 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard= Direct labor 0.6 hours $ 24.00 per hour $ 14.40
Actual production= 3,500 units.
2,290 direct labor-hours were used.
To calculate the direct labor efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Standard quantity= 3,500*0.6= 2,100
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (2,100 - 2,290)*24
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $4,560 unfavorable
The labor efficiency variance is $4,560 unfavorable.
Calculation of the labor efficiency variance:The following formula should be used for determining the same.
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Here,
Standard quantity= 3,500*0.6= 2,100
So,
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (2,100 - 2,290)*24
= $4,560 unfavorable

An economy begins in long-run equilibrium, and then a change in government regulations makes holding money less attractive. a. (1.5 points) How does this change affect the demand for money
Answer: Demand Curve shifts left
Explanation:
Money is now less attractive to hold so people will demand less of it. This will cause the demand curve in the monetary market therefore to shift to the left.
Shifts in the demand curve for money are usually caused when a non-interest determinant of demand changes such as a decrease in income.
Cole Co. began constructing a building for its own use in January 2016. During 2016, Cole incurred interest of $50,000 on specific construction debt, and $20,000 on other borrowings. Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 2016 was $40,000. What amount of interest should Cole capitalize?
Answer:
$40,000
Explanation:
The accounting procedure involved in the above is that one picks the lower between the actual interest incurred and the interest computed on the weighted average amount of accumulated expenditures for PPE.
The actual interest incurred on specific construction debt and other borrowings
= $50,000 + $20,000
= $70,000
Since the interest computed on the weighted average amount of accumulated expenditure for the building is $40,000 , the lower between the actual interest incurred and interest on weighted average amount of accumulated expenditure is $40,000, hence will be the capitalized amount.

On December 18, 2017, Stephanie Corporation acquired 100 percent of a Swiss company for 4.0 million Swiss francs (CHF), which is indicative of book and fair value. At the acquisition date, the exchange rate was $1.00 = CHF 1. On December 18, 2017, the book and fair values of the subsidiary’s assets and liabilities were:
Cash CHF 814,000
Inventory 1,314,000
Property, plant & equipment 4,014,000
Notes payable 2,128,000
Stephanie prepares consolidated financial statements on December 31, 2017. By that date, the Swiss franc has appreciated to $1.10 = CHF 1. Because of the year-end holidays, no transactions took place prior to consolidation.
Required:
a. Determine the translation adjustment to be reported on Stephanie’s December 31, 2017, consolidated balance sheet, assuming that the Swiss franc is the Swiss subsidiary’s functional currency. What is the economic relevance of this translation adjustment?
b. Determine the remeasurement gain or loss to be reported in Stephanie’s 2017 consolidated net income, assuming that the U.S. dollar is the functional currency. What is the economic relevance of this remeasurement gain or loss?
Answer:
a. Translation adjustment = $401,400
b. Remeasurement loss = –$131,400
Explanation:
a. Determine the translation adjustment to be reported on Stephanie’s December 31, 2017, consolidated balance sheet, assuming that the Swiss franc is the Swiss subsidiary’s functional currency. What is the economic relevance of this translation adjustment?
This can determined as follows:
Step 1: Calculation of beginning net asset in
Particular Amount (CHF)
Cash CHF 814,000
Inventory 1,314,000
Property, plant & equipment 4,014,000
Notes payable (2,128,000)
Beginning net asset 4,014,000
Beginning net asset in USD = Beginning net asset in Swiss francs (CHF) * Beginning exchange rate = CHF4.014,000 * $1 = $4,014,000
Step 2: Calculation of ending net asset
Ending net asset in USD = Beginning net asset in Swiss francs (CHF) * Ending exchange rate = CHF4.014,000 * $1.10 = $4,415,400
Step 3: Calculation translation adjustment
Translation adjustment = Ending net asset in USD - Beginning net asset in USD = $4,415,400 - $4,014,000 = $401,400
Economic relevance of this translation adjustment
The positive translation adjustment implies that the equity of stockholders has increased by $401,000.
We obtained a positive value because the net position of the subsidiary in Switzerland is CHF4,014,000 and there was a Swiss franc appreciation of $0.10 (i.e. $1.10 - $1.00 = $0.10).
The translation adjustment of $401,000 does not however implies that it was made as a dollar cash flow. The only condition that can make to turn to a profit is if this operation is sold at CHF4,014,000 on December 31 and the amount realized as a proceed is changed to dollars at ruling exchange rate of $1.10 to a Swiss franc on December 31, 2017.
b. Determine the remeasurement gain or loss to be reported in Stephanie’s 2017 consolidated net income, assuming that the U.S. dollar is the functional currency. What is the economic relevance of this remeasurement gain or loss?
This can be determined as follows:
Beginning net liabilities in Swiss franc = Cash - Note payable = CHF814,000 - CHF2,128,000 = –CHF1,314,000
Beginning net liabilities in USD = Beginning net liabilities in Swiss franc * Beginning exchange rate = –CHF1,314,000 * $1.00 = –$1,314,000
Ending net liabilities in USD = Beginning net liabilities in Swiss franc * Ending exchange rate = –CHF1,314,000 * $1.10 = –$1,445,400
Remeasurement loss = Ending net liabilities in USD – Beginning net liabilities in USD = [–$1,445,400] – [–$1,314,000] = –$131,400
Economic relevance of this remeasurement gain or loss
There is a negative remeasurement or remeasurement lost because the net monetary liability position of the Swiss subsidiary is CHF 1,314,000. The appreciation of the Swiss franc by $0.10 results in a loss of $131,400] that not is unrealized.
The readjustment loss of $131,400 does not however implies that it was a dollar cash outflow. The only condition that can make it to turn to a loss is if this operation is sold on December 31. This will lead to the realization of a transaction gain of $81,400 [i.e. CHF814,000 x ($1.10 - $1.00)].
Also, the Swiss franc note payable will be paid off by using the US dollar. This will bring about the realization of a truncation loss of $212,800 [i.e. CHF2,128,000 x ($1.10 - $1.00)].
Juice Drinks has beginning inventory of $10,000, purchases in the amount of $150,000, and ending inventory of $8,000. Juice Drinks cost of goods sold is $ ____________.
Answer:

Yan Yan Corp. has a $3,000 par value bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.2 percent paid semiannually and 25 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.8 percent. What is the price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
$3,173.63
Explanation:
For computing the price of the bond we need to apply the present value i.e to be shown in the attachment
Given that,
Future value = $3,000
Rate of interest = 4.8% ÷ 2 = 2.4%
NPER = 25 years × 2 = 50 years
PMT = $3,000 × 5.2% ÷ 2 = $78
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the price of the bond is $3,713.63

Yellowstone Corporation has just announced the repurchase of $125,000 of its stock. The company has 39,000 shares outstanding and earnings per share of $3.29. The company stock is currently selling for $76.09 per share. What is the price–earnings ratio after the repurchase?
Answer:
The price–earnings ratio after the repurchase is 22.18
Explanation:
First calculate Numbers of new shares
New Shares = Old Shares - ( Repurchased Shares / Price per share )
New Shares = 39,000 - ( $125,000 / $76.09 )
New Shares = 39,000 - 1,642.79
New Shares = 37,357.21 shares
New compute the old earning
Old Earning = EPS x Numbers of old shares = $3.29 x 39,000 = $128,310
New compute revised Earning per share
Revised EPS = Earning / New shares = $128,310 / 37,357.21 shares = $3.43
Now we need to calculate the Price earning ratio
P/E Ratio = Price per share / Revised earning per share = $76.09 / $3.43 = 22.18 times
The following data regarding purchases and sales of a commodity were taken from the related perpetual inventory account:

Required:
Calculate the cost of the ending inventory at June 30, using (a) the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and (b) the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Identify the quantity, unit price, and total cost of each lot in the inventory.
Answer:
Under LIFO:
date transaction units unit price total
1 Balance 25 $60 $1,500
6 Sale 20 $60 $1,200
8 Purchase 20 $61 $1,220

23 Sale 20 $62 $1,240
23 Sale 5 $61 $305
30 Purchase 15 $63 $945
ending inventory = total purchases + beginning balance - COGS = ($1,220 + $1,240 + $945) + $1,500 - ($1,200 + $610 + $1,240 + $305) = $3,405 + $1,500 - $3,355 = $1,550
Under FIFO:
date transaction units unit price total
1 Balance 25 $60 $1,500
6 Sale 20 $60 $1,200
8 Purchase 20 $61 $1,220

20 Purchase 20 $62 $1,240
23 Sale 15 $61 $915
23 Sale 10 $62 $620
30 Purchase 15 $63 $945
ending inventory = total purchases + beginning balance - COGS = ($1,220 + $1,240 + $945) + $1,500 - ($1,200 + $300 + $305 + $915 + $620) = $3,405 + $1,500 - $3,340 = $1,565
On January 1, 2017, Boston Enterprises issues bonds that have a $1,850,000 par value, mature in 20 years, and pay 7% interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds are sold at par. 1. How much interest will Boston pay (in cash) to the bondholders every six months
Answer:
Interest per six months =$64,750 .
Explanation:
Bonds are instruments used by companies, governments and other entries to borrow from the public.
They represent a contractual agreement where the borrower commits to pay a percentage of the principal amount borrowed plus the principal amount to the lender or investor.
The proportion of the amount borrowed which is paid as interest is called coupon. The interest payment is computed as the the coupon rate in percentage multiplied by the amount borrowed.
Interest payment = Coupon rate (%) × Nominal Value
Annual interest payment = 7% × 1,850,000 =$129,500
Semi-annual interest payment = Annual interest payment/2
Semi-annual interest payment =129,500 /2 =64,750 .
Interest per six months =$64,750 .
Note we had to divide by 2 because they are two six months in a year.
The term economies of scale refers to the fact that as the:
o physical size of the product gets larger, the costs of production become lower
O quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit increases
o quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit remains constant
quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit decreases
Need!
Answer:
quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit decreases
Explanation:
Economies of scale happens when the average total cost (variable + fixed production costs per unit) decreases as total output increases. This generally takes place because fixed costs are the same for a small number of units produced or a large number of units produced, so the average fixed cost per unit tend to decrease as more units are produced (at least up to certain point).

Answer:
25%
Explanation:
The expected before-tax IRR on a potential real estate investment is 14%
The expected after-tax IRR is 10.15%
Therefore, the effective tax rate on this investment can be calculated as follows
Effective tax rate= 1-(after-tax IRR/before-tax IRR)
Effective tax rate= 1-(10.15/14)
= 1-0.75
= 0.25×100
= 25%
Hence the effective tax rate is 25%

In a transaction for a good valued at $550 by a buyer and $500 by a seller, what percentage sales tax (assume tax on $500) would result in an unconsummated transaction
Answer:
A percentage sales tax that is more than 10% will result in an unconsummated transaction, because the buyer is not willing to pay more than $550 for the good.
Explanation:
A sales tax of 10% will make the good to cost $550 ($500 x 1.1). This is the maximum value placed on the good by the buyer. If the rate of the sales tax exceeds this rate, the buyer will likely not buy the good unless it is an essential good that she cannot do without. So, in levying sales taxes, it is important to understand the demand elasticity of the good. A good whose demand is inelastic is more likely to favor high sales tax rates than a similar good with elastic demand. This elasticity of demand tries to explain the response that demand will generate based on an increase or a decrease in price of a good.

For the coming year, Belton Company estimates fixed costs of $60,000, the unit variable cost of $25, and the unit selling price of $50.
a. Determine the break-even point in units of sales.
b. Determine the unit sales required to realize operating income of $100,000.
c. Determine the probable operating income if sales total $400,000.
Answer:
1. Break even point in units = 2,400 units
2. Sales required = 6,400 units
3. Operating income = $140,000
Explanation:
Given:
Fixed costs = $60,000
Variable cost =$25 per unit
Selling price = $50 per unit
Computation:
1. Break-even point in units of sales.
Contribution per unit = sales - VC
Contribution per unit = $50 - $25
Contribution per unit = $25
Break even point in units = Fixed costs / Contribution per unit
Break even point in units = $60,000 / $25
Break even point in units = 2400 units
2. Unit sales required to realize operating income = $100,000
Sales required = (Fixed costs + Operating income) / Contribution per unit
Sales required = ($60,000 + $100,000) / $25
Sales required = 6400 units
3. Operating income if sales total = $400,000
Contribution margin = [$25/ $50]100 = 50%
Operating income = Contribution margin - Fixed costs
Operating income = ($400,000 × 50%) - $60,000
Operating income = $140,000
A newly issued 20-year maturity, zero-coupon bond is issued with a yield to maturity of 8% and face value $1,000. Find the imputed interest income in: (a) the first year; (b) the second year; and (c) the last year of the bond’s life.
Answer:
First Year $ 17.17
Second Year $ 18.53
Last Year $ 74.08
Explanation:
Computation to Find the imputed interest income in: (a) the first year; (b) the second year; and (c) the last year of the bond’s life
Imputed Interest
First step
Using this formula
Imputed interest=(Present Value /1+Yield to maturity)^Numberd of years
Year Years Remaining to Maturity Constant Yield Value ( 1 / 1.08)^n
0 20 (1/1.08)^20= $ 214.54
1 19 (1/1.08)^19=$ 231.71
2 18 (1/1.08)^18=$ 250.24
19 1 (1/1.08)^1=$ 925.92
20 0 (1/1.08)^0=$ 1,000
Second step is to find the Imputed interest for the first year, second year; and the last year of the bond’s life
Year Years Remaining to Maturity Constant Yield Value ( 1 / 1.08)^n =Imputed Interest
0 20 $ 214.54
1 19 $ 231.71 $17.17
($231.71-$214.54)= $17.17
2 18 $ 250.24 $18.53
($250.24-$231.71)=$18.53
19 1 $ 925.92
20 0 $ 1,000 $74.08
($1,000-$925.92) =$74.08
Therefore the imputed interest will be:
First Year $ 17.17
Second Year $ 18.53
Last Year $ 74.08

When analyzing the changes on a spreadsheet used to prepare a statement of cash flows, the cash flows from operating activities generally are affected by
Answer: a. Net income, current assets, and current liabilities
Explanation:
The Operating Cashflow relates to cash transactions that have to do with the normal operations of the business. In other words, the business that the firm does to make revenue. It therefore includes, production, purchases, admin expenses, net income and the assets required to run the business.
Operating cashflows will therefore be affected by the Net Income as this is the end result of the business transactions the business engaged in. The current assets were needed to sell goods as well as being derived from selling goods and the current liabilities enabled the company to buy goods that they sell amongst other things.
Net income, current assets, and current liabilities are directly related to the operations of the business and so affect the Operating cashflows.
