Answer:
$2575
Explanation:
Total variable overhead estimated=(6*31,500)= $189,000
Hence total overhead estimated=Total variable overhead estimated+Total fixed overhead estimated = $189,000 + $220,500 = $409,500
Hence, predetermined overhead rate = $409,500 / 31,500 = $13 per machine hour
Hence, total overhead applied=(13*400) = $520
Hence, total job cost=Direct material+Direct labor+Total overhead = $685 + $1,370 + $520 = $2575
Adriana and Belen are partners who share income in the ratio of 3:2 and have capital balances of $50,000 and $90,000 at the time they decide to terminate the partnership. After all noncash assets are sold and all liabilities are paid, there is a cash balance of $90,000. How much cash should be distributed to Adriana
Answer:
$54,000
Explanation:
First, we add the ratios together to determine the total parts:
3+2= 5
Next, we divide the cash balance of $90,000 by the total parts:
$90,000/5 = $18,000
To find the amount of cash distributed to Adriana we multiply by her ratio:
5*18,000 = $54,000.
Sunland Company, has 14700 shares of 4%, $100 par value, cumulative preferred stock and 60200 shares of $1 par value common stock outstanding at December 31, 2021. There were no dividends declared in 2019. The board of directors declares and pays a $113000 dividend in 2020 and in 2021. What is the amount of dividends received by the common stockholders in 2021
Answer:
2021 Common Stockholders dividends = $49,600
Explanation:
Preference Shareholders are always paid their dividends first before Common Stockholders. If dividend is not declared, Preference dividends are cumulated to the next period and are due !
2019
Preferred Stockholders Dividends = 14700 x $100 x 4% = $58,800
Common Stockholders dividends = $ 0
2020
Preferred Stockholders Dividends = $58,800 (2019) + $54,200 (2020)
Common Stockholders dividends = $0
2021
Preferred Stockholders Dividends = $4,600 (2020 arrears) + $58,800 (2021) = $63,400
Common Stockholders dividends = $113,000 - $63,400 = $49,600
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
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
Because your patented Gidgit is starting to gain attention and investors are starting to show interest, the executive committee is considering becoming a publicly held company by selling the company to the government.
True
False
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
Patent can be defined as the exclusive or sole right granted to an inventor by a sovereign authority such as a government, which enables him or her to manufacture, use, or sell an invention for a specific period of time.
Generally, patents are used on innovation for products that are manufactured through the application of various technologies.
Basically, the three (3) main ways to protect an intellectual property is to employ the use of trademarks, copyright and patents.
In this scenario, Because your patented Gidgit is starting to gain attention and investors are starting to show interest, the executive committee is considering becoming a publicly held company.
Since Gidgit is patented it cannot be sold to the government because it is a registered intellectual property that cannot be used or sold without the approval or consent of the owner.
Elliot, Inc., uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior. The company observed that at 20,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $10.50 per hour. When activity jumped to 24,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $9.75. On the basis of this information, the company's fixed maintenance costs were:
Answer:
$90,000
Explanation:
At the activity level of 20,000 machine hours:
total maintenance costs=20,000* $10.50=$210,000
At the activity level of 24,000 machine hours:
total maintenance costs=24,000*$9.75=$234,000
variable maintenance cost per hour=(total maintenance costs at higher activity level-total maintenance costs at lower activity level)/(higher activity level-lower activity level)
variable maintenance cost per hour=($234,000-$210,000)/(24000-20000)
variable maintenance cost per unit=$6
Using the higher activity level data:
total cost=fixed cost+(variable maintenance cost per unit*number of hours)
$234,000=fixed cost+($6*24000)
234,000=fixed cost+$144,000
fixed cost=$234,000-$144,000
fixed cost=$90,000
Mohawk Machining, which uses a process-costing system, adds material at the beginning of production and incurs conversion cost evenly throughout manufacturing. The following selected information was taken from the company's accounting records: Total equivalent units of materials: 8,000 Total equivalent units of conversion: 7,400 Units started and completed during the period: 6,500 On the basis of this information, the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:_____.
A- 80%.
B- 70%.
C- 60%. - 40%.
D- some other percentage not listed above.
Answer:
C. 60%
Explanation:
Equivalent unit of Materials = 8,000.00
Equivalent unit of Conversion = 7,400.00
Units started and completed = 6,500.00
Since Materials are entered in the beginning it means that out of 8000 Units of Materials 6500 units are in Units started and completed and remaining 1500 Units are in Closing inventory. It also means that 1500 units are in Closing Inventory of Conversion and Equivalent production of conversion part of 1500 Units are 900 Units (7400-6500).
Let % Completion be x
X% of 1500 = 900
X = 900*100/1500
X = 60%.
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.
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
Aquatic Equipment Corporation decided to switch from the LIFO method of costing inventories to the FIFO method at the beginning of 2018. The inventory as reported at the end of 2017 using LIFO would have been $70,000 higher using FIFO. Retained earnings at the end of 2017 was reported as $880,000 (reflecting the LIFO method). The tax rate is 34%.
Required:
1. Calculate the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2013) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years.
2. Prepare the journal entry at the beginning of 2013 to record the change in accounting principle. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

Suppose that a task in a project has the following time estimates: to optimistic completion time 11 weeks tm most likely completion time 14 weeks tp pessimistic completion time 23 weeks Compute the expected task variance. The task expected task variance is weeks. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)
Answer:
6 weeks
Explanation:
Optimistic Completion Time - 11 weeks
Most likely completion time - 14 weeks
Pessimistic completion time - 23 weeks
Compute the expected task variance in weeks. Recall that Variance is a measure of dispersion - a measure that shows the distance or spread between or among values of a variable.
Expected Variance is the average of the variance values.
First,
the variance between optimistic CT and most likely CT is (14 - 11) = 3 weeks
Second,
the variance between pessimistic CT and most likely CT is (23 - 14) = 9 weeks
The expected variance is the average of these two values and that's (3 + 9)/2 = 12/2 = 6 weeks
So the expected variance from the mean completion time of 14 weeks is 6 weeks before or 6 weeks after. This accommodates both the optimist and the pessimist.

we get here monthly payment that is express as
monthly payment. = [tex]\frac{P\times r\times (1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n-1}[/tex] ...................1
put here value and we get
monthly payment. = [tex]\frac{15750\times 0.02\times (1+0.02)^{30}}{(1+0.02)^{30}-1}[/tex]
solve it we get
monthly payment. = $703.24 per month
As CEO of ​, knows it is important to control costs and to respond quickly to changes in the highly competitive​ boat-building industry. When Consulting proposes that invest in an ERP​ system, she forms a team to evaluate the​ proposal: the plant​ engineer, the plant​ foreman, the systems​ specialist, the human resources​ director, the marketing​ director, and the management accountant. A month​ later, management accountant reports that the team and estimate that if implements the ERP​ system, it will incur the following​ costs:
a. $435,000 in software costs
b. $95,000 to customize the ERP software and load Aqua Marine's data into the new ERP system
c. $105,000 for employee training
The team estimates that the ERP system should provide several benefits:
a. More efficient order processing should lead to savings of $105,000.
b. Streamlining the manufacturing process so that it maps into the ERP system will create savings of $125,000.
c. Integrating purchasing, production, marketing, and distribution into a single system will allow Aqua Marine to reduce inventories, saving $225,000.
d. Higher customer satisfaction should increase sales, which, in turn, should increase profits by $155,000.

For Evaluating the effects of integrating purchasing, production, marketing, and distribution into a single system - Plant foreman
For Estimating increase in sales from higher customer satisfaction - Marketing director
For Estimate benefits and costs - All team members
Explanation:
a.)
If the ERP installation succeeds , the dollar amount of the benefit is as follows :
From more efficient order processing savings = $105,000
From streamlining the manufacturing process savings = $125,000
From reduce inventories savings = $225,000
From increased sales profit = $155,000
⇒Total benefit = $ 105,000 + 125,000 + 225,000 + 155,000
= $610,000
⇒Total benefit if the ERP installation succeeds = $610,000
b.)
Firstly check the Costs for installation of ERP:
Software cost = $435,000
Customizing ERP and loading data cost = $95,000
Employee training cost = $105,000
⇒Total cost = $ 435,000 + 95,000 + 105,000
= $635,000
⇒Total cost = $635,000
Now,
As we have
Total Benefit in installation of ERP = $610,000
Total cost in installation of ERP = $635,000
⇒Net benefit = $610,000 - $635,000 = -$ (25,000)
∴ we get
If Aqua Marine install the ERP system , them they face loss.
So, They should not install the ERP system.

Lincoln Company purchased merchandise from Grandville Corp. on September 30, 2021. Payment was made in the form of a noninterest-bearing note requiring Lincoln to make six annual payments of $4,400 on each September 30, beginning on September 30, 2024. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your final answer to nearest whole dollar amount.) Required: Calculate the amount at which Lincoln should record the note payable and corresponding purchases on September 30, 2021, assuming that an interest rate of 9% properly reflects the time value of money in this situation.
Answer: $16,613
Explanation:
As the noninterest-bearing note required Lincoln to make six annual payments of $4,400, this is an annuity because it is a constant figure.
The amount that should be recorded is the present value of this amount.
Present value of annuity = Annuity * ( 1 - ( 1 + rate) ^ -no. of periods) / rate
= 4,400 * ( 1 - ( 1 + 9%)⁻⁶) / 9%
= $19,738
This present value is for September 30, 2023. It needs to be discounted further to September 30, 2021.
= 19,738 / (1 + 9%)²
= $16,613

3. You are considering investing in a startup company called Minions Technologies. After careful analysis, you determine that Minions will be able to generate $100,000 in cash flow at the end of each year for the first 5 years. Then, Minions will generate cash flow of $400,000 at the end of the 6th year, after which it will grow at 11% per year forever. Using a discount rate of 18%, what is the amount you would be willing to invest
Answer:
$2,810,467
Explanation:
we need to determine the enterprise value of Minions Technologies
first, the terminal value at year 5 = $400,000 / (18% - 11%) = $5,714,286
then we must find the present value of all future cash flows, including the terminal value
PV of 5 five cash flows = $100,000 x 3.127 (PV annuity factor, 18%, 5 periods) = $312,700
PV of terminal value = $5,714,286 / 1.18⁵ = $2,497,767
total enterprise value = $2,810,467

Conrad, Inc. recently lost a portion of its records in an office fire. The following information was salvaged from the accounting records.
Cost of Goods Sold $ 65,000
Work-in-Process Inventory, Beginning 10,500
Work-in-Process Inventory, Ending 9,000
Selling and Administrative Expense 15,000
Finished Goods Inventory, Ending 15,000
Finished Goods Inventory, Beginning?

Beth, an employer, wants to hire someone for a strenuous job that requires a great deal of training, which will take place over the course of several years. The applicant who appears most qualified is 58 years old; however, Beth is concerned that the applicant will not be able to handle the physical demands of the position in the long run. Further, she is concerned that the applicant will only continue working for several more years before she retires. Does Beth hire the applicant anyway
Answer:
Beth should not hire the applicant.
Explanation:
Based on common hiring practices, Beth should not hire the applicant. Mainly due to the applicant's age. It costs a company a large amount of money to properly train an employee in order to have them be as efficient as possible when working for the company. This is regardless of their current experience, therefore if a candidate is as old as this particular candidate and is already thinking of retiring then it will be a waste of company resources to hire the individual candidate. Instead, Beth should go for someone with the same experience/skills but will instead be with the company for the long term.
A manufacturing company applies factory overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that factory overhead costs would be $348,400 and direct labor hours would be 47,000. Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred were $304,000, and actual direct labor hours were 52,400. The journal entry to apply the factory overhead costs for the year would include a
Answer:
Journal Entry
Debit Work-in-Process $388,284
Credit Manufacturing Overhead $388,284
To record the application of factory overhead costs for the year.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Estimated factory overhead costs = $348,400
Estimated direct labor hours = 47,000
Predetermined overhead rate = $7.41 ($348,400/47,000)
Actual overhead costs = $304,000
Actual direct labor hours = 52,400
Applied overhead costs = $388,284 (52,400 * $7.41)
b) The overhead applied to the production for the year will be the actual direct labor hours by the predetermined overhead rate. This yields a cost that is greater than the actual overhead costs, which means that the manufacturing overhead was overapplied. The cause of this situation is the number of actual direct labor hours worked vis-a-vis the actual overhead costs and the predetermined rate.
A company purchased $10,700 of merchandise on June 15 with terms of 2/10, n/45, and FOB shipping point. The freight charge, $850, was added to the invoice amount. 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.
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

Susan and Bill Stamp want to set up a TDA that will generate sufficient interest at maturity to meet their living expenses, which they project to be $1,200 per month. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)
(a) Find the amount needed at maturity to generate $1,350 per month interest, if they can get 7 % interest compounded monthly.
(b) Find the monthly payment that they would have to make into an ordinary annuity to obtain the future value found in part (a) if their money earns 9 % and the term is twenty years.
Answer:
(a) The amount needed is $192,000.
(b) The monthly payment is $150.98.
Explanation:
Note: There are errors in this question. The correct question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Susan and Bill Stamp want to set up a TDA that will generate sufficient interest at maturity to meet their living expenses, which they project to be $1,200 per month. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)
(a) Find the amount needed at maturity to generate $1,200 per month interest, if they can get 7.25% interest compounded monthly.
(b) Find the monthly payment that they would have to make into an ordinary annuity to obtain the future value found in part (a) if their money earns 9.75% and the term is twenty years.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
(a) Find the amount needed at maturity to generate $1,200 per month interest, if they can get 7.25% interest compounded monthly.
This can be calculated using the following future value formula:
FV = P / i ........................... (1)
Where;
FV = Amount needed at maturity = ?
P = Monthly payment or amount to generate monthly = $1,200
i = monthly interest rate = Annual interest rate / 12 = 7.25% / 12 = 0.075 / 12 = 0.00625
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $1,200 / 0.00625 = $192,000
Therefore, the amount needed is $192,000.
(b) Find the monthly payment that they would have to make into an ordinary annuity to obtain the future value found in part (a) if their money earns 9.75% and the term is twenty years.
This can be calculated using the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (2)
Where,
FV = Future value = $192,000
M = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = 9.75% / 12 = 0.0975 / 12 = 0.008125
n = number of months = 25 years * Number of months in a year = 25 * 12 = 300
Substituting the values into equation (2) and solve for M, we have:
$192,000 = M * (((1 + 0.008125)^300 - 1) / 0.008125)
$192,000 = M * 1271.65920375075
M = $192,000 / 1271.65920375075
M = $150.98
Therefore, the monthly payment is $150.98.
A firm with a net income of $30,000 and weighted average actual shares outstanding of 15,000 for the year also had the following two securities outstanding the entire year: (1) 2,000 options to purchase one share of stock for $12 per share. The average share price during the year was $20, (2) cumulative convertible preferred stock with an annual dividend commitment of $4,500. Total common shares issued on conversion are 2,900. Compute diluted EPS for this firm.
Answer:
$1.68
Explanation:
Diluted EPS = Earnings Attributable to Potential Ordinary Shareholders ÷ Weighted Average Number Ordinary Shareholders plus Potential Voting Rights
where,
Earnings Attributable to Potential Ordinary Shareholders = $30,000
and
Weighted Average Number Ordinary Shareholders plus Potential Voting Rights
Weighted average actual shares outstanding = 15,000
Plus Potential voting rights of 2,000 options = 1
Plus Potential voting right of preferred stock = 2,900
Total = 17,901
therefore,
Diluted EPS = $30,000 ÷ 17,901
= $1.68
Swifty Corporation issued 100000 shares of $10 par common stock for $1250000. A year later Swifty acquired 15900 shares of its own common stock at $15 per share. Three months later Swifty sold 8500 of these shares at $19 per share. If the cost method is used to record treasury stock transactions, to record the sale of the 8500 treasury shares, Swifty should credit
