This means producers of tomato juice face__________ input prices, and the supply curve for tomato juice ____________). The resulting ____________ in the price of tomato juice causes people to substitute (away from tomato juice and toward orange juice/away from orange juice and toward tomato juice), so the demand for orange juice ________.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Falls; lowers; falls; decrease; lower; increases; fall; away from orange juice and toward; fall.

Explanation:

In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.

The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal. On the other hand, law of supply states that the higher the price of goods and services, the lower the supply.

Generally, consumers would like to be buy a product as its price falls or become inexpensive.

For substitute or complement products (goods), the price elasticity of demand is always positive because the demand of a product increases when the price of its close substitute (alternative) increases.

In this scenario, Ketchup is a complement (as well as a condiment) for hot dogs. If the price of hot dogs rises, the quantity of hot dogs demanded falls, which lowers the demand for ketchup. Because of the change in the equilibrium quantity of ketchup, the demand for tomatoes by ketchup producers falls, causing the equilibrium price of tomatoes to decrease. This means producers of tomato juice face lower input prices, and the supply curve for tomato juice increases. The resulting fall in the price of tomato juice causes people to substitute away from orange juice and toward tomato juice, so the demand for orange juice falls.

The company budgeted for $52,500 in total overhead costs for the year. The cost driver associated with the overhead is machine hours and the company expected to use 10,500 machine hours.
REQUIRED:
1) Compute the amount of over-applied or under-applied overhead cost for the year.
2) Determine the cost of goods manufactured for the year.

Answers

Answer:

See Below

Explanation:

1.

= Actual manufacturing overhead cost - Budgeted total overhead

Actual manufacturing overhead cost = $48,000

Budgeted total overhead = $52,500

= $48,000 - $52,500

= $4,500

The above is under applied overhead since Budgeted overhead is more than the actual overhead expended.

2. Cost of goods manufactured

Inventories ; raw materials at the beginning

Many investment advisors argue that after stocks have declined in value for 2 consecutive years, people should invest heavily because the market rarely declines 3 years in a row. a) Since the stock market began in 1872, there have been two consecutive losing years eight times. In six of those cases, the market rose during the following year. Does this confirm the advice

Answers

Answer: Yes it does

Explanation:

The investment advisors say that the market rarely declines three years in a row.

Since 1872, it has declined two years in a row 8 times and three years in a row, only twice.

This means out of 8 times, it declined twice. Percentage of times it declined was:

= 2 / 8 * 100%

= 25%

25% while not rare, is a good enough percentage to trust the advice of the investment advisors.

For the year, Jensen's has depreciation of $2,058, dividends paid of $125, interest expense of $382, an addition to retained earnings of $3,408, and an increase in common stock of $2,500. The total tax rate is 21 percent. What is the operating cash flow

Answers

Answer:

$5,973

Explanation:

The computation of operating cash flow is seen below;

Net income = $125 + $3,408 = $3533

Net income $3,533 - Interest expense $382 - Depreciation $2,058 = EBIT $1,093

Tax = 21% × $1,093 = $229.53

Operating cash flow = $1,093 + $2,058 + $2,700 - $229.53 = $5,973

a) Data and Calculations:

Cash Account

Common stock $89,000

Furniture            (32,000)

Equipment         (40,000)

Salaries               (12,000)

Wages                (21,000)

Raw materials   (26,000)

Sales                   72,000

Cash balance  $30,000

Inventory:

Cost = $26,000

Units produced = 10,000 units

Cost per unit = $2.60 ($26,000/10,000)

Cost of goods sold = 8,000 * $2.60 = $20,800

Ending inventory = 2,000 * $2.60 = $5,200

Sales Revenue = 8,000 * $9 = $72,000

Assets:

Change in profit margin : The Profit Margin has fallen from 5% to 3.10 % in 2017 by 2.10% . The cause of this decline is a concern and must be investigated. The Profit margin rate measure the success with respect of earnings on sales thus more investigations must be done on what caused the earnings to decline in 2017.

Part 1

Cost of Goods Sold has increased by $28,000 ($1,015,000 -$987,000). Income tax rate has not changed.

a. Impact of the change on multi-step income statement

The items of Gross Profit and Income from Operations will decline by $28,000.

b. Impact of the change on profitability ratios

The Profit ratios will decline. Profit margin will be 1.73 %. Gross Profit margin will be 50.49 %

Explanation:

Multiple Step Income Statement shows separately the Operating Income and the Net Income. Operating Income being Income derived from Primary Activities of the Company whilst the Net Income includes the Secondary Activities of the Company such as Income taxes or Sale of assets.

Other Workings :

Profit margin = Net Income / Net Sales x 100

                     =  $63,500 / $2,050,000 x 100

                     =  3.10 %

Gross Profit rate = Gross Profit / Net Sales x 100

                           = $1,063,000 / $2,050,000 x 100

                           =51.85 %

As part of her purchase, she took out a bank loan that will require $76,265.00 per year in interest. She anticipates paying a 32.00% tax rate on income. She estimates that the deli will attract 200.00 customers per day. Each customer will spend $12.00 on average. The cost of goods per customer will be $4.50. She will operate the deli 350.00 days per year. What is the projected net profit margin for the deli

Answers

Answer:

27%

Explanation:

The computation of the net profit margin is shown below;

As we know that

net profit margin = Net profit ÷ sales

where

net profit is

Particulars                                                                 Amount

Sales (200 customers × $12 × 350 days) $840,000

Less: cost of goods sold (200 customers × $4.50 × 350 days) -$315,000

Gross profit $525,000

Less:

Selling and admin expense -$98,510

Depreciation expense - $20,000

Bank loan interest -$76,265

Net income before tax $330,225

Less tax at 32% -$105,672

Net income after tax $224,553

Now the net profit margin is

= $224,553 ÷ $840,000

= 27%

f.       $0                   $2,500

g.      $0                  $5,000

Explanation:

a) Data:

Investor's tax bracket = 33% (same as the short-term capital gains taxes)

Long-term capital gains taxes = 15%

b) Events and Calculations:

a) Net short-term capital gains of $3,000; net long-term capital gains of $4,000

Short-term tax = $990 ($3,000*33%)

Long-term tax = $600 ($4,000*15%)

Total taxes =    $1,590

b) Net short-term capital gains of $3,000; net long-term capital losses of $4,000

Long-term capital losses = $4,000

Short-term capital gains =   (3,000)

Savings =                             $1,000

c) Net short-term capital losses of $3,000; net long-term capital gains of $4,000

Long-term capital gains = $4,000

Short-term capital losses  (3,000)

Long-term capital gains taxes = $150 ($1,000 * 15%)

d) Net short-term capital gains of $3,000; net long-term capital losses of $2,000

Short-term capital gains = $3,000

Long-term capital losses   (2,000)

Savings =                            $1,000

e) Net short-term capital losses of $4,000; net long-term capital gains of $3,000

Short-term capital losses = $4,000

Long-term capital gains       (3,000)

Savings                                $1,000

f) Net short-term capital losses of $1,000; net long-term capital losses of $1,500

Short-term capital losses = $1,000

Long-term capital losses      1,500

Savings =                            $2,500

g) Net short-term capital losses of $3,000; net long-term capital losses of $2,000

Short-term capital losses = $3,000

Long-term capital losses      2,000

Savings =                            $5,000

Batch Co. employs knowledge workers and is finding that its employees are retiring closer to age 75 than to age 65. As a result, they recently amended their defined benefit pension plan such that benefits will begin at age 72, with certain exceptions for those employees demonstrating an earlier need, instead of at age 60. Batch Co. has been able to measure the actuarial present value of this amendment, which is the change in the projected benefit obligation (PBO) that results from the change. How will this affect pension expense in current and future periods?

Answers

Answer:

It will decrease prior service cost and, as prior service cost is amortized, will decrease pension expense.

Explanation:

In the given if there is any change in the projected benefit obligation so the pension expense would impact in the present and future period by reducing the service cost that incurred before also the service cost that incurred before would be amortized that ultimately reduce the pension expense

Therefore the first option is correct

Bridges and Lloyd, an accounting firm, provides consulting and tax planning services. For many years, the firm's total administrative cost (currently $250,000) has been allocated to services on the basis of billable hours to clients. A recent analysis found that 65% of the firm's billable hours to clients resulted from tax planning services, while 35% resulted from consulting services. The firm, contemplating a change to activity-based costing, has identified three components of administrative cost, as follows: Staff Support $ 180,000 In-house computing charges 50,000 Miscellaneous office costs 20,000 Total $ 250,000 A recent analysis of staff support found a strong correlation between the number of staff personnel and the number of clients served (consulting, 20; tax planning, 60). In contrast, in-house computing and miscellaneous office cost varied directly with the number of computer hours logged and number of client transactions, respectively. Consulting consumed 30% of the firm's computer hours and had 20% of the total client transactions. If Bridges and Lloyd switched from its current accounting method to an activity-based costing system, the amount of administrative cost chargeable to consulting services would:

Answers

Answer: Decrease by $23,500

Explanation:

The Consulting cost under their current accounting system is:

= 250,000 * 35%

= $87,500

Under Activity based:

Staff support for Consulting:

20 goes to Consulting, 60 to tax planning.

Total = 20 + 60 = 80

Consulting is 20/80 of Staff support amount

= 20/80 * 180,000

= $45,000

In house computing charges for Consulting

Consulting consumed 30% of the firm's computer hours.

= 30% * 50,000

= $15,000

Miscellaneous office costs

Consulting consumed 20% of total client transactions

= 20% * 20,000

= $4,000

Total cost for Consulting under Activity based = 45,000 + 15,000 + 4,000

= $64,000

Difference = 87,500 - 64,000

= $23,500

Answers

Answer:

C)There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.

D)There is a lack of standardization.

E)There is difficulty in accumulating wealth.

Explanation:

barter in a trade can be regarded as a system of exchange that involves exchange of goods and services for another without using money as a medium of exchange. Barter is been considered as 'inefficient' as a result of the needs for 'double coincidence of wants'. For instance in a situation whereby someone is buying particular amount of another's goods, but the payment he/she has is for just one indivisible unit of another good, and the worth is higher than what he/she want to obtain, in this case there won't be barter transaction.

It should be noted that the costs and sources of inefficiency in a barter are;

✓There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.

✓There is a lack of standardization.

✓There is difficulty in accumulating

Last month, you lent a work colleague $5000 to cover some overdue bills. He agreed to pay you in 1 month with interest at 2% for the month, thus owing you $5100. Today, when the repayment is due, he asked you to extend the loan for another month and he would pay you the $5100 next month. In the meantime, you have had the offer to invest as much as you wish in an oil-well venture that is expected to pay 40% per year and a hot new IT stock that is estimated to return 39% the first year. If you let your colleague have another month, what is the opportunity cost of your decision

Answers

Answer:

The opportunity cost of lending the money to the friend is the largest expected return that could be earned with the money loaned to the friend. From the available opportunity, the investor could earn maximum of 40% by investing in oil well venture. Thus, the opportunity cost to the investor is 40%

The opportunity cost in dollar = Investment * Opportunity cost in %

= $5,000 * 40%

= $2,000

Thus, the opportunity cost in dollar is $2,000

how to journalize this?

Answers

When a business transaction requires a journal entry, we must follow these rules:

The entry must have at least 2 accounts with 1 DEBIT amount and at least 1 CREDIT amount.

The DEBITS are listed first and then the CREDITS.

The DEBIT amounts will always equal the CREDIT amounts.

For another example, let’s look at the transaction analysis we did in the previous chapter for Metro Courier (click Transaction analysis):

1. The owner invested $30,000 cash in the corporation. We analyzed this transaction by increasing both cash (an asset) and common stock (an equity) for $30,000. We learned you increase an asset with a DEBIT and increase an equity with a CREDIT. The journal entry would look like this:

2. Purchased $5,500 of equipment with cash. We analyzed this transaction as increasing the asset Equipment and decreasing the asset Cash. To increase an asset, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit. This journal entry would be:

one thanks give me motivation for answering

plz mark me brainliest

Answer:

All the journal entries illustrated so far have involved one debit and one credit; these journal entries are called simple journal entries. Many business transactions, however, affect more than two accounts. The journal entry for these transactions involves more than one debit and/or credit. Such journal entries are called compound journal entries.

Explanation:

1.  The owner invested $30,000 cash in the corporation.  We analyzed this transaction by increasing both cash (an asset) and common stock (an equity) for $30,000. We learned you increase an asset with a DEBIT and increase an equity with a CREDIT

2.  Purchased $5,500 of equipment with cash.  We analyzed this transaction as increasing the asset Equipment and decreasing the asset Cash.  To increase an asset, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit.

3. Purchased a new truck for $8,500 cash.   We analyzed this transaction as increasing the asset Truck and decreasing the asset Cash.  To increase an asset, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit.

4.  Purchased $500 in supplies on account.  We analyzed this transaction as increasing the asset Supplies and the liability Accounts Payable.  To increase an asset, we debit and to increase a liability, use credit.

5.  Paid $300 for supplies previously purchased.  Since we previously purchased the supplies and are not buying any new ones, we analyzed this to decrease the liability accounts payable and the asset cash.  To decrease a liability, use debit and to decrease and asset, use debit.

6.  Paid February and March Rent in advance for $1,800.  When we pay for an expense in advance, it is an asset.  We want to increase the asset Prepaid Rent and decrease Cash.  To increase an asset, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit.

7.  Performed work for customers and received $50,000 cash.  We analyzed this transaction to increase the asset cash and increase the revenue Service Revenue.  To increase an asset, use debit and to increase a revenue, use credit.

8.  Performed work for customers and billed them $10,000.  We analyzed this transaction to increase the asset accounts receivable (since we have not gotten paid but will receive it later) and increase revenue.  To increase an asset, use debit and to increase a revenue, use credit.

9.  Received $5,000 from customers from work previously billed.  We analyzed this transaction to increase cash since we are receiving cash and we want to decrease accounts receivable since we are receiving money from customers who we billed previously and not new work we are doing.  To increase an asset, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit.

10 Paid office salaries $900.  We analyzed this transaction to increase salaries expense and decrease cash since we paid cash.  To increase an expense, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit.

In 1963, an investor opened a savings account with $LaTeX: \text{K} K earning simple interest at annual rate of LaTeX: 2.5\% 2.5 % . Four years later, the investor closed the account and invested the accumulated amount in a savings account earning LaTeX: 5\% 5 % compound interest. Determine the number of years (since 1963) necessary for the balance to reach $LaTeX: 3K 3 K .

Answers

Answer:

The number of years necessary for the balance to turn from K to 3K (since 1963) in the given situation = 24.5636 years rounded off to 25 years

Explanation:

The simple interest earned is at the rate of 2.5%. The formula for simple interest per year is,

Simple interest per year = Investment * interest rate

Simple interest per year = 1K * 2.5%  => $0.025K

Simple interest for 4 years = 0.025 * 4 = $0.1K

So, total investment at the after 4 years = 1K + 0.1K = $1.1K

The formula for future value of a sum of amount will be used to calculate the value of investment at a future date. The formula is as follows,

Future value = Present value * (1+r)^t

Where,

r is the interest rate or rate of returnt is the time period

So, accumulated earnings ($1.1K) are invested at 5% compound interest. The value of t necessary for 1.1K to turn into 3K can be found as follows,

3 = 1.1 * (1.05)^t

3 / 1.1 = 1.05^t

2.727272727 = 1.05^t

ln(2.727272727) / ln(1.05) = t

t = 20.5636 years rounded off to 21 years

The number of years necessary for the balance to turn from K to 3K in the given situation = 4 + 20.5636 = 24.5636 rounded off to 25 years
