Answer:
C. The Robinson–Patman Act of 1936
Explanation:
The Robinson-Patman Act of 1936 is an amendment to The Clayton Act of 1914, which particularly prohibits price discrimination. Price Discrimination is an act in which distributors or sellers of certain goods, give discounts to people who they seem to benefit more from while smaller shops buy the goods at a costlier price.
The instance where the major tire manufacturer has an agreement to make a price discount with the manufacturer of truck tires is an example of price discrimination, and the consequence is that other markets are affected as they now exit the market. This is a clear contravention of the Robinson-Patman Act of 1936.
LaserLife Printer Company is a decentralized organization with several autonomous divisions. The division managers are evaluated, in part, on the basis of the change in their return on invested assets. Operating results for the Packer Division for 2019 are budgeted as follows:
Sale $5,000,000
Less variable costs 2,500,000
Contribution margin 2,500,000
Less fixed expenses 1,800,000
Net operating income $ 700,000
Invested capital for the division are currently $3,600,000. For 2019, the division can add a new product line for an investment of $600,000. The new product line will generate sales of $1,600,000 and will incur fixed expenses of $600,000 annually. Variable costs of the new product will average 60% of the selling price.
REQUIRED:
1. What is current ROI? Profit margin (or Return on sales)? Investment (or Capital) turnover?
2. What is the effect on ROI of accepting the new product line?
If the company's required rate of return is 6% and residual income (RI) is used to evaluate managers, would this encourage the division to accept the new product line? Explain and show computations.
Answer:
1. The current ROI is 19.44%. The Profit margin (or Return on sales) is 14%. TheInvestment (or Capital) turnover is 1.39 times.
2. The effect on ROI of accepting the new product line is 17.62%. ROI will be decreased by 1.82%
If the company's required rate of return is 6% and residual income (RI) is used to evaluate managers the residual income amount would be of $4,000 and so Managers should accept the new product line
Explanation:
1. To calculate the profit margin we have to use the following formula:
Profit margin= Net operating income/Sale
Hence, Profit margin = $700,000/$5,000,000 = 14%
ROI= Net operating income/Invested capital
Hence, ROI = $700,000/$3,600,000 = 19.44%
Investment (or Capital) turnover=Sale/Invested capital
Hence, Investment (or Capital) turnover = $5,000,000/$3,600,000 = 1.39 times
2. The Net operating income= ($5,000,000+$1,600,000)-($2,500,000+1,600,000*60%)-$(1,800,000+$600,000) = $740,000
Hence, ROI = $740,000/$4,200,000 = 17.62%
ROI will be decreased by (19.44-17.62) 1.82%.
In order to know if the division would accept the new product line If the company's required rate of return is 6% and residual income (RI) is used to evaluate managers, we would have to calculate the residual income as follows:
Residual income = operating income - invesed capital*required rate of return
= ($740,000-$700,000)-$600,000*6%
= $4,000
Therefore, Managers should accept the new product line.
If the distribution of water is a natural monopoly, then a. a single firm cannot serve the market at the lowest possible average total cost. b. multiple firms would likely each have to pay large fixed costs to develop their own network of pipes. c. allowing for competition among different firms in the water-distribution industry is efficient. d. average cost increases as the quantity of water produced increases.
Answer:
The correct option is C) If the distribution of water is a natural monopoly, average cost increases as the quantity of water produced increases.
Explanation:
Natural monopoly occurs when there is a hig cost of entry into a particular market niche. The high cost is usually caused by expensive equipment and infrastructural set up for manufacturing as well as maintenance costs.
Therefore, If the distribution of water is a natural monopoly, average cost increases as the quantity of water produced increases.
Distribution of water falls into the category of natural monopoly. Due to the prevailing circumstances, Fixed cost is larger comparable to variable cost such that it is cheaper for a single firm to serve the market.
How Hard The Day, Inc. makes a product that has the following direct labor standards: Standard direct labor-hours 1.4 hours per unit Standard direct labor rate $ 12.00 per hour The company budgeted for production of 5,400 units in January, but actual production was 5,500 units. The company used 6,800 direct labor-hours to produce this output. The actual total direct labor cost was $82,960. The direct labor efficiency variance for January is:
Answer:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $10,800 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard direct labor-hours 1.4 hours per unit
Standard direct labor rate $ 12.00 per hour
Actual production was 5,500 units.
The company used 6,800 direct labor-hours to produce this output.
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= 5,500*1.4= 7,700
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (7,700 - 6,800)*12
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $10,800 favorable

The general fund of the Town of Dean levied property taxes of $3,000,000 for the fiscal year beginning on January 1, 20X8. It was estimated that 1% of the levy would be uncollectible. During the period January 1, 20X8, through December 31, 20X8, $2,960,000 of the property tax levy was collected. At December 31, 20X8, Dean estimated that $10,000 of property taxes levied in 20X8 would be collected during the first 60 days of 20X9. What amount of property tax revenue should be reported by the general fund for the year ended December 31, 20X8?
Answer: $2,970,000
Explanation:
According to US tax laws, property taxes can be recognised for 60 days into the next financial period because it is assumed that within this period, the taxes can still cover expenses related to the period that it is from.
Therefore, if Property taxes are paid within the first 60 days in 20X9 then the Town of Dean should recognise those taxes paid.
Those taxes amount to $10,000 so therefore, the amount to be reported in the fund is,
= 2,960,000 + 10,000
= $2,970,000
$2,970,000 is amount of property tax revenue that should be reported by the general fund for the year ended December 31, 20X8.
Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a bond with 25 years to maturity and a semiannual coupon rate of 4 percent 3 years ago. The bond currently sells for 108 percent of its face value. The company’s tax rate is 22 percent. The book value of the debt issue is $30 million. In addition, the company has a second debt issue on the market, a zero coupon bond with 10 years left to maturity; the book value of this issue is $15 million, and the bonds sell for 73 percent of par. a.What is the company’s total book value of debt? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g. 1,234,567.)b.What is the company’s total market value of debt? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g. 1,234,567.)c.What is your best estimate of the aftertax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
Explanation:
a.What is the pre-tax cost of debt?This question is basically asking for the bond’s current yield to maturity, which is the pre-tax cost of long term debt in the capital markets for this company today.Price = 1.08 * 1000 = 1080+/- PV23 * 2 = 46 N.10 * 1000 = 100 / 2 = 50 PMT1000 FVSolve for i/y = 4.5801 is the semi-annual yield to maturity * 2 = 9.1601% annual YTM
b.What is the after-tax cost of debt?9.1601 * (1 - .35) = 5.9541 after tax cost of debt.This is the true cost of debt to the company because the company gets a tax deduction (a tax shield!) for paying interest on its debt.

Amortization of Prior Service cost $1,183,000 ($1,698,300 - $1,580,000)
Interest on PBO $157,000 ($1,517,000 ×10%)
Less: Expected return on plant assets $80,300 ($803,000 × 10%)
Pension expense $1,337,700
We simply applied the above formula so that the amount of pension expense could come
On January 1, 2021, the Blackstone Corporation purchased a tract of land (site number 11) with a building for $600,000. Additionally, Blackstone paid a real estate brokerâs commission of $36,000, legal fees of $6,000, and title insurance of $18,000. The closing statement indicated that the land value was $500,000 and the building value was $100,000. Shortly after acquisition, the building was razed at a cost of $75,000.
Blackstone entered into a $3,000,000 fixed-price contract with Barnett Builders, Inc., on March 1, 2021, for the construction of an office building on land site 11. The building was completed and occupied on September 30, 2022. Additional construction costs were incurred as follows:
Plans, specifications, and blueprints .....................$ 12,000
Architectsâ fees for design and supervision ............95,000
To finance the construction cost, Blackstone borrowed $3,000,000 on March 1, 2021. The loan is payable in 10 annual installments of $300,000 plus interest at the rate of 14%. Blackstoneâs average amounts of accumulated building construction expenditures were as follows:
For the period March 1 to December 31, 2021 ...........$ 900,000
For the period January 1 to September 30, 2022 .......2,300,000
Required:
1. Prepare a schedule that discloses the individual costs making up the balance in the land account in respect of land site 11 as of September 30, 2022.
2. Prepare a schedule that discloses the individual costs that should be capitalized in the office building account as of September 30, 2022.
Answer:
Blackstone Corporation
1. A schedule that discloses the individual costs making up the balance in the land account in respect of land site 11 as of September 30, 2022:
Cost of Land = $600,000
Broker's Commission = $36,000
Legal Fees = $6,000
Title Insurance = $18,000
Razing of old building = $75,000
Total = $735,000
2. A schedule that discloses the individual costs that should be capitalized in the office building account as of September 30, 2022:
Payment to contractor for building = $3,000,000
Plans, specifications, and blueprints = $12,000
Architect's fees (design & supervision = $95,000
Capitalized Interest ($3m x14%/10 x 2) = $84,000
Total = $3,191,000
Explanation:
a) The cost of land to recognize includes the actual cost for the parcel of land, including the building which was razed. All other expenses incurred ordinarily and necessarily in order to put the land to its intended use are also capitalized. The costs for the broker's commission, legal fees, title insurance, and razing of old building were incurred ordinarily and necessarily for the land and are therefore capitalized in determining the value of the land.
b) The capitalized interest portion for the building is the interests paid to date. The contractor's fee, payments for plans, architect's fee, and interests are included as costs of the building.
Blossom Companyhad the following transactions during 2022: 1. Issued $182500 of par value common stock for cash. 2. Recorded and paid wages expense of $87600. 3. Acquired land by issuing common stock of par value $73000. 4. Declared and paid a cash dividend of $14600. 5. Sold a long-term investment (cost $4380) for cash of $4380. 6. Recorded cash sales of $584000. 7. Bought inventory for cash of $233600. 8. Acquired an investment in Zynga stock for cash of $30660. 9. Converted bonds payable to common stock in the amount of $730000. 10. Repaid a 6-year note payable in the amount of $321200. What is the net cash provided by investing activities
Answer:
($26,280)
This represents net cash used up by investing activities
Explanation:
The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.
The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.
The sale of assets, interest received, purchase of investments are examples of investing activities while the issuance of stocks, debt principal deduction (loan settlement), issuance of debt securities etc are examples of financing activities.
An increase in assets other than cash is an outflow while an increase in liabilities is an inflow and vice versa.
Hence net cash provided by investing activities
= $4380 - $30660
= ($26,280)
Other activities are operating and financing activities.
Markley Manufacturing calculated its predetermined overhead rate to be 120% of direct labor cost. During June, the company incurred $90,000 of factory labor costs, of which $85,000 is direct labor and $5,000 is indirect labor. Actual overhead incurred was $84,000. Compute the amount of manufacturing overhead applied during the month. Determine the amount of under- or over-applied manufacturing overhead.
Answer:
Applied Manufacturing Overheads are $102,000
Overapplied Manufacturing overheads are $18,000
Explanation:
Under or over applied manufacturing overhead can be determined by comparing the actual and applied manufacturing overheads.
Applied overheads can be calculated by multiplying pre-determined overhead rate and actual level of quantity. Predetermined overhead rate is calculated using estimated overhead and estimated activity on which overheads are applied.
In this question the predetermined overhead rate is 120% of direct labor cost.
Applied overhead = Direct labor cost x 120% = $85,000 x 120% = $102,000
Actual overheads incurred = $84,000
Overapplied Manufacturing overheads = $102,000 - $84,000 = $18,000
Granfield Company is considering eliminating its backpack division, which reported an operating loss for the recent year of $42,100. The division sales for the year were $961,900 and the variable costs were $476,000. The fixed costs of the division were $528,000. If the backpack division is dropped, 40% of the fixed costs allocated to that division could be eliminated. The impact on Granfield's operating income for eliminating this business segment would be:
Answer:
$274,700
Explanation:
The calculation of operating income is shown below:-
Total losses after the division is discontinued = Fixed cost × Remaining percentage
= $528,000 × 60%
= $316,800
So, the impact on net operating income would be decrease = Total losses after the division is discontinued - Operating loss for the recent year
= $316,800 - $42,100
= $274,700
Therefore for computing the impact on Granfield's operating income we simply applied the above formula.

Alden Trucking Company is replacing part of their fleet of trucks by purchasing them under a note agreement with Kenworthy on January 1, 2009. The note agreement will require $10 million in annual payments starting on December 31, 2009 and continuing for a total of five years (final payment December 31, 2013). Kenworthy will charge Alden Trucking Company the market interest rate of 10% compounded annually.
Required:
1. How much will Alden record as a debit to their equipment account and as acredit to their notes payable account on January 1, 2009?
2. How much ofthe first $10 million payment on December 31, 2009 isinterest?
3. What is theremaining obligation on January 1, 2010 after the first payment hasbeen made?
Answer:
1. $37,907,868
2. $3,790,787
3. $31,698,654
Explanation:
The cost of the trucks according to IAS 16, is the amount of cash or cash equivalent paid or the fair value of the other consideration given to acquire an asset at the time of its acquisition.
Thus=, we need to find the Fair Value or Present Value of the Note as Follows:
Pmt = $10,000,000
P/yr = 1
i = 10%
N = 5
Pv = ?
Pv = 37,907,868
Therefore Alden will record $37,907,868 as a debit to their equipment account and as a credit to their notes payable
Interest on First Payment = $37,907,868×10%
= $3,790,787
Remaining Obligation = $37,907,868 - $6,209,213 (Capital Portion) - $3,790,787 (Interest Portion)
= $31,698,654
Big and Tall, CPAs, were auditing Mountain Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2019. On January 15, 2020, a major customer of Mountain Corporation declared bankruptcy as the result of an uninsured loss due to a major fire in their warehouse on January 10, 2020. As a result, a material accounts receivable from the customer was determined to be uncollectible. Big and Tall, CPAs, would expect the client to:________.
A. Record the loss on uncollectible accounts as a routine transaction in the year 2020.
B. Treat the loss as a subsequent event and adjust the 2019 financial statements to record the loss on uncollectible accounts.
C. Treat the loss as a subsequent event and provide a footnote about the loss in the 2019 financial statements.
D. File a lawsuit against the customer in hopes of collecting some of the money owed to the client.
Answer:
The correct answer is Option B.
Explanation:
Based on IAS 10 Events after the Reporting Period, subsequent events can be an adjusting event or non-adjusting event. If it is an adjusting event, it means an event after the reporting date before the audited financial statements are signed that provides further evidence of conditions that existed at the reporting date. However, non-adjusting events are events after the reporting date that are indicative of a condition that arose after the reporting date, this requires disclosure in the financial statements while for adjusting events, the financial statements are adjusted for condition that arose after the reporting date.
The declaration of the customer as bankrupt is an adjusting event since it affects the receivable collection, hence the need to adjust it as uncollectible,

Answer:
Explanation:
In economics, profit maximization is an optimization problem for producers, who choose the quantity of output to maximize revenue net of total costs. Profit is maximized when the marginal revenue form the last unit produced is equal to the marginal cost.
Answer and Explanation:
The Winter is the peak season because for the same quantity demanded, consumers are willing to offer a higher price, as indicated by the demand curve.
Steve Company purchased a tractor at a cost of $180,000. The tractor has an estimated salvage value of $20,000 and an estimated life of 8 years, or 10,000 hours of operation. The tractor was purchased on January 1, 2019 and was used 2,400 hours in 2019 and 2,100 hours in 2020. On January 1, 2021, the company decided to sell the tractor for $70,000. Steve uses the units-of-production method to account for the depreciation on the tractor. Based on this information, the entry to record the sale of the tractor will show:
Answer:
Loss on sale = $38,000
Explanation:
The computation of sale of tractor is shown below:-
Total depreciation = ($180,000 - $20,000) × (2,400 + 2,100) ÷ 10000
= $72,000
Net book value on January 1, 2021 = Tractor cost - Total depreciation
= $180,000 - $72,000
= $108,000
Loss on sale = Total depreciation - Net book value on January 1, 2021
= $70,000 - $108,000
= $38,000
Therefore for computing the sale of tractor we simply applied the above formula.
The entry to record the sale of the tractor will show the loss of $38,000.
Here, we are going to calculate the loss or gain on the sale of the tractor.
Depreciation rate per hour = (Cost - Salvage value) / Total estimated hours
Depreciation rate per hour = ($180,000 - $20,000) / 10,000
Depreciation rate per hour = $160,000 / 10,000
Depreciation rate per hour = $16
Depreciation amount = Hours * Depreciation rate per hourDepreciation in 2019 = 2,400 hours * $16 per hour
Depreciation in 2019 = $38,400
Depreciation in 2020 = 2,100 hours * $16 per hour
Depreciation in 2020 = $33,600
Accumulated depreciation = Depreciation in 2019 +
Depreciation in 2020
Accumulated depreciation = $38,400 + $33,600
Accumulated depreciation = $72,000
Carrying value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation
Carrying value = $180,000 - $72,000
Carrying value = $108,000
Gain / (loss) = Sale price - Carrying value
Gain / (loss) = $70,000 - $108,000
Loss = $38,000
Therefore, the entry to record the sale of the tractor will show the loss of $38,000.

Which statement is false? Marginal cost and marginal productivity are inversely related. Marginal cost is the change in a firm's total cost due to a one unit change in output. Costs that are small and unimportant with little impact on profits are called marginal costs. A marginal cost curve will always intersect the average total cost curve at the minimum average total cost. Consider the table. Output 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Total cost 100 110 115 125 140 160 190 230 280 340 420 What is the marginal cost of the fifth unit based on the table? $0 −$20 $20 $160
Answer:
Option (c) Marginal cost of fifth unit = $20
