Answer:
...with rates of inflation.
Explanation:
The more that a particular currency appears in the market without any work (value) being associated with that currency, the smaller the value of that particular form of currency (For example, the U.S. dollar). When inflation is high, banks will increase interest rates on loans in order to get rid of some of the of the surplus currency in the market, bringing down inflation and increasing the total value of a particular form of currency.

Wicker Rockers, Inc. is planning to offer a defined contribution plan for its employees. The company would like to incorporate a "cliff" vesting schedule for the employer contributions into the plan. What is the minimum vesting period the company can choose for a "cliff" vesting schedule
Answer:3 years
Explanation:
Cliff vesting is when an employee of a company becomes fully vested on a specified date rather than the employee becoming partially vested in increasing amounts over extended period. Cliff Vesting is a process whereby the employees are entitled to full benefits from their firm’s pension policies and qualified retirement plans on a given date.
Upon the completion of the cliff period, employees receive full benefits. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 deduced a three-year cliff vesting schedule for the designated defined-contribution plans which includes 401Ks.
Red Co. acquired 100% of Green, Inc. on January 1, 2017. On that date, Green had land with a book value of $42,000 and a fair value of $52,000. Also, on the date of acquisition, Green had a building with a book value of $200,000 and a fair value of $390,000. Green had equipment with a book value of $350,000 and a fair value of $280,000. The building had a 10-year remaining useful life and the equipment had a 5-year remaining useful life. In Red’s December 31, 2017 consolidated worksheet, what total amount of excess fair over book value amortization expense adjustments should Red recognize resulting from its 100% acquisition of Green?
Answer:
$5,000
Explanation:
The computation of total amount of excess fair over book value amortization expense adjustments to be recognized by red is shown below:-
Excess of fair value over book value = Land fair value - Land book value
= $52,000 -$42,000
= -$10,000
Here land is not amortized
Excess of fair value over book value = Building fair value - Building book value
= $390,000 - $200,000
= $190,000
Excess fair value over book value amortization expense adjustments to be recognized by red = Excess of fair value over book value of building ÷ Number of Years
= $190,000 ÷ 10
= $19,000
Excess of fair value over book value = Equipment fair value - Equipment book value
= $280,000 - $350,000
= ($70,000)
Excess fair value over book value amortization expense adjustments to be recognized by red for equipment = Excess of fair value over book value of equipment ÷ Number of Years
= ($70,000) ÷ 5
= ($14,000)
Total amount of excess fair over book value amortization expense adjustments to be recognized by red
= $19,000 - $14,000
= $5,000
The largest national herbal supplement store is running a sale on its excess supply of Vitamin C supplements. With this new price change what do you think will happen to the Vitamin C supplement market? a. There will be a shift if the demand curve as demand increases. b. There will be an increase only in the quantity demanded. c. There will be a decrease in the quantity demanded. d. There will be a shift in the supply curve as supply increases.
Answer:
b. There will be an increase only in the quantity demanded.
Explanation:
The law of demand states that the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.
So if there's a sale, vitamin c would become cheaper and the quantity demanded would increase. This would lead to a movement along the demand curve and not a shift.

Suppose that SoS sells both versions and wants to charge different prices for different versions. What is the highest price of the bluetooth version for the high-valuation buyers? (Hint: Since low-valuation buyers will not have an incentive to buy the more expensive version, the highest price of the stripped-down version for the low-valuation buyers is equal to their willingness to pay, i.e., pL = $250)
Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
Since the high valuation customers are willing to pay $500 for the Bluetooth headphones, that price should be set for the Bluetooth versions. The problem will arise if the high valuation customers shift to the stripped down version as well. However, since they care for the Bluetooth versions and stripped down versions separately, it is highly likely that they will prefer the Bluetooth headphones.
So the highest price that can be set for the Bluetooth headphones for the high value buyer will be $500.
5) If the price is set at $500 for high value customers and $250 for low value customers, total profit can be given as
Profit = 1,000,000 * (250 - 100) + 800,000 * (500 - 100)
Profit = 150,000,000 + 320,000,000 = $470 million

CSUSM is a zero growth company. It currently has zero debt and its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $85,000. CSUSM 's current cost of equity is 11%, and its tax rate is 21%. The firm has 15,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Assume that CSUSM is considering changing from its original capital structure to a new capital structure with 39% debt and 61% equity. This results in a weighted average cost of capital equal to 8.7% and a new value of operations of $576,345. Assume CSUSM raises $165,000 in new debt and purchases T-bills to hold until it makes the stock repurchase. What is the stock price per share immediately after issuing the debt but prior to the repurchase?
Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
Calculation of CSUSM 's New value of Operation :
For the purpose of Calculation of New Value of Operation we need to first calculate new WACC
Given :
Debt value ( Wd) = 30% or 0.30
Equity Value ( We)= 70% or 0.70
Cost of Debt ( Kd) =8%
New cost of equity (Ke) =12%
WACC =Kd(1-T) * Wd + Ke* We
WACC =[8%(1-0.40) * 0.30] + [12% * 0.70]
= [4.80% * 0.30 ] + [8.4 %]
= 1.44% + 8.4%
= 9.84 %
Given EBIT = $ 80,000
Tax rate = 40%
Currently the company has no growth. Therefore growth rate is 0 %
Value of New Operation =FCF / WACC
=EBIT (1-T) / WACC
=$80,000 (1-0.40)/ 9.84%
= $ 487,804.88
EHW Office Supplies, Inc. uses the perpetual inventory system. On September 4, 2019,EHW sold merchandise inventory on account at a price of $50,000 with payment terms of 1/10, n/30.

Cash received=$50,000*(1-1%)=$49,500
discount =$50,000-$49,500=$500
The appropriate entries for cash collection:
Dr cash $49,500
Dr discount allowed $500
Cr accounts receivable $50,000
At the beginning of last year, Tarind Corporation budgeted $900,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead and chose a denominator level of activity of 600,000 machine-hours. At the end of the year, Tari's fixed manufacturing overhead budget variance was $12,000 favorable. Its fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance was $19,200 favorable. Actual direct labor-hours for the year were 625,000. What was Tari's total standard machine-hours allowed for last year's output?
Answer:
The answer is 612800 hours
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
At the start of last year, Tari Corporation budgeted $900,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead and chose a denominator level of activity of 600,000 machine-hours.
At the end of the year, Tari's fixed manufacturing overhead budget variance was $12000 favorable. Its fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance was $19200 favorable. The direct actual labor-hours for the year were 625,000. What was Tari's standard total machine-hours allowed for last year's output?
Now,
The Budgeted at beginning of the year = $900,000
fixed manufacturing overhead for = 600,000 machine hours
Thus,
The Standard = $900,000 / 600,000 hours = $1.5 fixed overhead / machine/machining hour
So,
At end of year, manufacturing overhead volume was $19,200 favorable which means that,
$19200 / $1.5 = 12800 additional hours.
Total Standard Machine Allowance Allowed for output = 600,000 +12800 = 612800 hours
Therefore, Tari's total standard machine-hours allowed for last year's output is 612800 hours
If Tarind Corporation budgeted $900,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead and chose a denominator level of activity of 600,000 machine-hours. At the end of the year, Its fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance was $19,200 favorable. What Tari's total standard machine-hours allowed for last year's output will be is: 612,800 machine hours
Using this formula
Total standard machine-hours=Machine -hours level of activity+ [Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance÷(Fixed manufacturing overhead÷ Machine -hours level of activity)]
Where:
Machine -hours level of activity=600,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance=$19,200
Fixed manufacturing overhead=$900,000
Let plug in the formula
Total standard machine-hours=600,000+[$19,200÷($900,000÷600,000)]
Total standard machine-hours=600,000+($19,200÷1.5)
Total standard machine-hours=600,000+12,800
Total standard machine-hours=612,800 machine hours
Inconclusion if Tarind Corporation budgeted $900,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead and chose a denominator level of activity of 600,000 machine-hours. At the end of the year, Its fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance was $19,200 favorable. What Tari's total standard machine-hours allowed for last year's output will be is: 612,800 machine hours

$550 unfavorable.
Explanation:
Total actual overhead = $9,500 + $6,050 = $15,550
Total predetermined overhead = Predetermined overhead rate * Standard hours = $5 * 3,000 = $15,000
Total overhead variance = $15,550 - $15,000 = $550 unfavorable.
Note: It is unfavorable because total actual is greater than total predetermined overhead.
Purdum Farms borrowed $16 million by signing a five-year note on December 31, 2017. Repayments of the principal are payable annually in installments of $3.2 million each. Purdum Farms makes the first payment on December 31, 2018 and then prepares its balance sheet. What amount will be reported as current and long-term liabilities, respectively, in connection with the note at December 31, 2018, after the first payment is made?
Answer:
Current liabilities $3.2 million
long-term liabilities =$16 million-$3.2 million-$3.2 million=$9.6 million
Explanation:
The amount classified as current liabilities as at 31st December 2018 is the portion of the loan repayable within a year,that the repayment due at 31st December 2019 which is $3.2 million.
The amount to be classified as long term liabilities is the balance of the loan after having taken out the payment in year 1 as well as the repayment to be made in year 2
Assume there is a decrease in the market demand for a good sold by price-taking firms that are initially producing the profit-maximizing level of output. How will the market adjust over time? Firms will exit the market, causing price to fall until positive profits are eliminated. Firms will exit the market, causing price to rise until losses are eliminated. Firms will enter the market, causing price to rise until losses are eliminated. Firms will enter the market, causing price to fall until positive profits are eliminated.
Answer: Firms will exit the market, causing price to rise until losses are eliminated
Explanation:
When there is a decrease in demand in a Perfectly Competitive Market, firms will have to start producing at a lower Quantity to manage their Marginal cost. This leads to Economic losses on their part in the short run.
In the long run however, should the situation remain the same, the new price would be less than their Average Cost which would deepen Economic losses. Firms would respond by exiting the market in the long run.
As the firms exit, the supply curve shifts left as supply drops. This drop in supply leads to a price rise. The exits will continue until enough firms leave that the market's remaining firms will stop suffering economic losses.
Kevin, Rajiv, and Yakov are hunters who live next to a recreational wildlife game area that is open to hunting; in other words, anyone is free to use the recreational wildlife game area for hunting. Assume that these men are the only three hunters who hunt in this recreational wildlife game area and that the recreational wildlife game area is large enough for all three hunters to hunt intensively at the same time.
Each year, the hunters choose independently how often to hunt; specifically, they choose whether to hunt intensively (that is, to set several traps and hunt long hours, which hurts the sustainability of the recreational wildlife game area if enough people do it) or to hunt nonintensively (which does not hurt the sustainability of the recreational wildlife game area). None of them has the ability to control how much the others hunt, and each hunter cares only about his own profitability and not the state of the recreational wildlife game area.
Assume that as long as no more than one hunter hunts intensively, there are enough animals to restock the recreational wildlife game area. However, if two or more hunt intensively, the recreational wildlife game area will become useless in the future. Of course, hunting intensively earns a hunter more money and greater profit because he can sell more animals.
The recreational wildlife game area is an example of _____________ because the animals in the recreational wildlife game area are ________ and ___________.
Answer: Common resource ,
Non excludable and Rival in consumption
Explanation:
Common resource is defined as the resource that is usually available to people in open form and people tend to overuse it.This creates shortage of resource and brings scarcity.They are considered rival in nature.Any good is considered rival if consumption of good by one person reduces consumption of that good for another person. It is regarded as subtractable.Non-excludable good is defined as the good that does not stop other people or group of people to consume or use it.There is no certain restriction of using particular good.According to the questions scenario, recreational wildlife game area is common resource because Yakov, Rajiv and Kevin are using that area for hunting openly .Other hunters can also use the area for hunting as it is available commonly for everyone as per their needs.
Animal of wildlife game area can be considered rival and non-excludable in consumption because they are openly available for hunter and there is no restriction on their usage (hunting) particularly.Thus, if a hunter hunts more number of animals using intensive hunting mechanism, it will reduce number of animals for other hunters .
Movers Company manufactures sneakers. Production of its new sneakers for the coming three months is budgeted as follows: August 28,000 September 50,000 October 33,000 Each sneaker requires 2.5 hours of direct labor time. Direct labor wages average $16 per hour. Monthly variable overhead averages $10 per direct labor hour plus fixed overhead of $4,500. What is the total overhead budgeted for the month of September
Answer:
Budgeted overhead cost =$1,250,000
Explanation:
Budgeted overhead for the month of September = Total labour hours × overhead rate per hour
Total labor hours = standard hours × budgeted production units
=2.5 hours × 40,000= 125,000
Budgeted overhead cost Total = $10× 125,000 =$1250000
Budgeted overhead cost =$1,250,000
Answer:
$1,254,500
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
Production of sneakers for three months budgets were :
August= 28000
September = 50,000
October = 33,000
Each sneakers requires labor time = 2.5 hours
Labor wages average = $16.
Now,
The total overhead budgeted for the month of September is calculated as follows:
The total overhead budgeted for the month of September = Variable overhead + Fixed overhead
= (50,000 units * 2.5 direct labor hours per unit * $10 per direct labor hour) + $4,500
= $1,254,500
Therefore, the total overhead budgeted for the month of September is $1,254,500
The following data pertain to last year's operations at Tredder Corporation, a company that produces a single product: Units in beginning inventory 0 Units produced 20,000 Units sold 19,000 Selling price per unit $100.00 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $12.00 Direct labor $25.00 Variable manufacturing overhead $3.00 Variable selling and administrative $2.00 Fixed expenses per year: Fixed manufacturing overhead $500,000 Fixed selling and administrative $600,000 What was the absorption costing net operating income last year?
Answer:
Net operating income= 27,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units produced 20,000
Units sold 19,000
Selling price per unit $100.00
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $12.00
Direct labor $25.00
Variable manufacturing overhead $3.00
Variable selling and administrative $2.00
Fixed expenses per year:
Fixed manufacturing overhead $500,000
Fixed selling and administrative $600,000
Under the absorption costing method, the fixed manufacturing overhead gets included in the unitary production cost. First, we need to calculate the unitary product cost.
Unitary product cost= (12 + 25 + 3) + (500,000/20,000)
Unitary product cost= 40 + 25= $65
Income statement:
Sales= 100*19,000= 1,900,000
COGS= 65*19,000= (1,235,000)
Gross profit= 665,000
Variable selling and administrative= (2*19,000)=(38,000)
Fixed selling and administrative= (600,000)
Net operating income= 27,000
At the beginning of 20D, Braga Company had office supplies inventory of $800. During 20D, the company purchased office supplies amounting to $2,500 (paid for in cash and debited to office supplies inventory). At December 31, 20D, the end of the accounting year, a count of office supplies still on hand reflected $500. The adjusting entry Braga Company will record on December 31, 20D to adjust the office supplies inventory account would include a A) debit to office supplies expense for $2,800. B) debit to office supplies inventory for $2,800. C) debit to supplies expense for $2,500. D) credit to office supplies inventory for $500.
Answer:
A) debit to office supplies expense for $2,800
Explanation:
When Supplies is purchased, Debit supplies and credit Cash/Accounts payable. As Supplies are used up, debit supplies expense (with the amount used) and Credit Supplies account.
The movement in the balance of supplies at the start and end of a period is as a result of usage and purchases. While usage reduces the balance in supplies, purchases increases the balance. This may be expressed mathematically as
Opening balance + purchases - units used = closing balance
Hence,
$800 + $2500 - amount used = $500
amount used up = $800 + $2500 - $500
= $2800

b. $72,600
c. $80,200
d. $102,600
*Formulas or explanations with each part of the problem.
Answer:
1. b. $42 per unit
2. a. $32 per unit
3. d. $69,200
4. b $72,600
Explanation:
1 and 2 The computation of unit productive cost using absorption costing and unit product cost using variable costing is shown below:-
Absorption Variable
Direct material $15 $15
Direct labor $5 $5
Variable manufacturing
overhead $12 $12
Fixed manufacturing
overhead $10
($20,000 ÷ 2000)
Product cost $42 $32
Therefore for computing the product cost of absorption and variable cost we simply added direct material, direct labor, variable manufacturing overhead and fixed overhead rate
3. The computation of the unit product cost using variable costing is shown below:-
Sales $180,000
Cost of goods manufactured ($756,00)
(1800 × $42)
Difference $104,400
Variable and selling
administrative ($25,200)
(1800 × $14)
Gross profit $79,200
Fixed selling and administrative
expenses ($10,000)
Net operating income $69,200
So, for computing the net operating income we simply deduct the Fixed selling and administrative expenses from gross profit.
4. The computation of operating income using variable costing is shown below:-
Sales $190,000
(1,900 × $100)
Variable cost of goods
manufactured $60,800
(1,900 × $32)
Gross contribution margin $129,200
Variable and selling administrative ($26,600)
(1900 × $14)
Net contribution margin $102,600
Fixed cost ($30,000)
Operating income $72,600
Therefore for computing the operating income using variable costing we simply deduct the fixed cost from net contribution margin.
A work center uses kanban containers that hold 200 parts. To produce enough parts to fill a container, 60 minutes of setup plus run time are needed. Moving the container to the next workstation, waiting time, processing time at the next work station, and return of the empty container take 120 minutes. There is an overall demand rate of 10 units per minute. Calculate the number of containers needed for this process.
Answer:
9 containers
Explanation:
Data given
Container holds (capacity) = 200 units
Demand rate per minute = 10 units
The computation of number of containers needed is shown below:-
Time to fill container = Setup time + Processing time
= 60 + 120
= 180 minutes
Number of containers (n) = (Demand × Time to fill container) ÷ Capacity of the container
= (10 × 180) ÷ 200
= 1,800 ÷ 200
= 9 containers
Therefore for computing the number of containers we simply applied the above formula.
Tom, Dan and Phil work indifferent teams at Springfield Automotive. Tom's team ensures that all the raw materials, machinery, tools and other production equipment are available for the employees around the clock. Any procurement needs have to be addressed to Tom, who also takes part in high-level decisions regarding the number of units to produced, exported and so on. Dan works as part of a team of eight members who concentrate the day-to-day productions; they also ensure that the quality checks are done and inspect each other's work. Phil is the operations manager, who works for 5 hours in the production department and then spends the rest of his time assisting management as an internal consultant on manufacturing issues. His input is crucial in improving the production process. Dan's contribution is toward the __________.
Answer: Work team
Explanation: Dan's contribution is towards the work team whereas Phil works in the parallel team while Tom is part of the management team. a work team which Dan is a member of is defined as a group of workers or employees with different set of skills that work together on a given task such as the day-to-day productions in a business, quality control and inspection, etc. Work teams are most efficient or useful where there is a frequent change in job content and employees with limited skills and a specific set of duties are unable to cope (work teams thus provide expert advice that will increase the ability of employees to participate in planning, problem-solving, and decision-making that are needed to complete a set of work and to better serve customers).
