During April, the production department of a process operations system completed and transferred to finished goods 18,000 units that were in process at the beginning of April and 90,000 units that were started and completed in April. April's beginning inventory units were 100% complete with respect to materials and 40% complete with respect to labor. At the end of April, 30,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to labor. The beginning inventory included materials cost of $107,000 and the production department incurred direct materials cost of $329,000 during the month. Compute the direct materials cost per equivalent unit for the department using the weighted-average method
Answer:
Cost per equivalent unit of materials = $3.16
Explanation:
Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.
Cost per equivalent unit = cost / total equivalent units
Total units completed and transferred out= 18,000 + 90000= 108,000
Items Unit Equivalent unit
Completed units 108,000 100% × 108,000 = 108,000
Closing inventory 30,000 100% × 30,000 = 30,000
Total equivalent unit of material 138,000
Cost per equivalent unit = Total cost/Total equivalent unit
= (107,000 + 329,000) /138,000 units
= $3.16

Blossom Co. leased machinery from Young, Inc. on January 1, 2020. The lease term was for 8 years, with equal annual rental payments of $5,800 at the beginning of each year. In addition, the lease provides an option to purchase the machinery at the end of the lease term for $1,500, which Blossom is reasonably certain it will exercise as it believes the fair value of the machinery will be at least $5,000. The machinery has a useful life of 10 years and a fair value of $43,000. The implicit rate of the lease is not known to Blossom. Blossom’s incremental borrowing rate is 9%. Prepare Blossom’s 2020 journal entries
Answer and Explanation:
The Journal entry is shown below:-
1. Right of use Dr, $35,743.93
To lease liability $35,743.93
(Being lease assets and lease liability is recorded)
Working note as attached using spreadsheet
Here we debited the right of use as it increased the assets and we credited the lease liability as it also increased the liability
2. Lease liability Dr, $5,800
To Cash $5,800
(Being payment on lease liability is recorded)
Here, we debited the lease liability as it decrease the liability and we credited the cash as it decreased the asset
3. Interest expenses Dr, $2,694.95
To Lease liability $2,694.95
(Being interest expenses is recorded)
Here we debited the interest expense as it increased the expenses and we credited the leased liability as it increased the liability
4. Amortization expenses Dr, $3,574.39 ($35,743.93 ÷ 10 )
To Right of use $3,574.39
(Being amortization expenses is recorded)
Here we debited the amortization expenses as it increase the expenses and we credited the right of use as it reduced the assets
Working Note
Interest expenses = (Lease liability - First lease payment) × Incremental borrowing rate
= ($35,743.93 - $5,800) × 9%
= $2,694.95
Suppose Mr. Lane just bought a share of BlueWind Co., a renewable energy startup. BlueWind promises to pay Mr. Lane $18 in dividends for one year and then the firm will shut down. Suppose that the liquidation value of the share is $3, and the rate of time preference is 5%. Then, according to the single-period dividend discount model, the present value of the cash payment received by Mr. Lane in one year would be
Answer:
The present value of the cash payment is $20
Explanation:
The present value of cash payment receivable by Mr Lane in one year's time is the today's equivalent amount of the dividend of $18 as well as the liquidation value of $3.
The present value is the total cash inflows multiplied by the discount factor
discount factor=1/(1+r)^n
where is the rate of time preference of 5%'
n is 1 i.e in one year's time
total cash inflows=$18+$3=$21
discount factor =1/(1+5%)^1=0.95238
present value of cash payment=0.95238*$21=$20

d. If travel has both business and personal aspects, the cost of transportation is always deductible but the deductibility of lodging depends upon whether business is conducted that day.
e. None of the choices are true because business travel is not deductible.
During its first year of operations, a company granted its employees vacation privileges and pension rights estimated at a cost of $23,125 and $15,073, respectively. The vacations are expected to be taken in the next year, and the pension rights are expected to be paid in the future 5-30 years. What is the total cost of vacation pay and pension rights to be recognized in the first year
Answer:
$38,198
Explanation:
Recognization principle state that the total amount paid in the first year will be the sum of the amounts given as a whole which will inturn be considered as paid for the employees.
Therefore for the first year, the vacation pay and the pension right will be :
$23,125 +$15,073
=$38,198
Therefore the total cost of vacation pay and pension rights to be recognized in the first year will be $38,198
In 2020, Marigold Corp., issued for $102 per share, 86000 shares of $100 par value convertible preferred stock. One share of preferred stock can be converted into three shares of Marigold's $25 par value common stock at the option of the preferred stockholder. In August 2021, all of the preferred stock was converted into common stock. The market value of the common stock at the date of the conversion was $30 per share. What total amount should be credited to additional paid-in capital from common stock as a result of the conversion of the preferred stock into common stock?
Answer:
$2322,000
Explanation:
The computation of amount credited to additional paid-in capital is shown below:-
Amount credited to additional paid-in capital = Issued per share × Number of shares) - (Number if shares × Preferred stock shares converted into three shares × Par value of common stock
= ($102 × 86,000) - (86,000 × 3 × $25)
= $8,772,000 - $6,450,000
= $2322,000
So, for computing the amount credited to additional paid-in capital we simply applied the above formula.

A financier plans to invest up to $500,000 in two projects. Project A yields a return of 9% on the investment of x dollars, whereas Project B yields a return of 17% on the investment of y dollars. Because the investment in Project B is riskier than the investment in Project A, she has decided that the investment in Project B should not exceed 40% of the total investment. How much should the financier invest in each project in order to maximize the return on her investment
Answer:
She should invest $300,000 in Project A, and $200,000 in Project B.
Explanation:
Solution
Since Project B yields a higher return, she should invest as much money as possible in it, which is 40% of the total investment or
or (0.40)($500,000) = $200,000
so
The remaining $500,000 - $200,000 = $300,000 should be invested in Project A.
Therefore, she should invest $300,000 in Project A, and $200,000 in Project B.

Stahlmaere Inc. is a start-up company that manufactures simple machines. It is interested in analyzing the profit from a new machine using Monte Carlo simulation. It wants to investigate the profit resulting from a selling price of $150 per unit. The setup and advertising costs are known to total $75,000. They assume that the demand for the product is normally distributed with a mean of 1500 units and a standard deviation of 100 units. The company estimates that the raw material cost per unit is uniformly distributed between $5 and $6. The labor cost per unit is assumed to follow a discrete uniform distribution from $12 to $16. A junior analyst has devised the following Excel spreadsheet that simulates a single scenario using the information given above: Selling price per unit = 150 Set up and advertising cost = 75000 Demand = =NORM.INV(RAND(),1500,100) Raw material cost per unit = =5+(6-5)*RAND() Labor cost per unit = =RANDBETWEEN(12,16) Profit = =(B1*B4)-B2-((B5+B6)*B4) Copy-and-paste the above information into cells A1:B8 of an Excel spreadsheet. Then use a data table to repeat the simulation 1000 times. From the simulation results, estimate Stahlmaere's expected mean profit. Understanding that simulation is random in nature and that your estimate is unlikely to match any of the answer choices exactly, choose the answer choice that is closest to the estimated mean profit.

Southern Alliance Company needs to raise $70 million to start a new project and will raise the money by selling new bonds. The company will generate no internal equity for the foreseeable future. The company has a target capital structure of 60 percent common stock, 15 percent preferred stock, and 25 percent debt. Flotation costs for issuing new common stock are 12 percent, for new preferred stock, 9 percent, and for new debt, 2 percent. What is the true initial cost figure the company should use when evaluating its project ?
Answer:
$88,832,487.31
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
FT = flotation cost of new debt percent × target capital debt percent + flotation cost of new common stock percent × target capital common stock percent + flotation cost of new preferred stock percent × target capital preferred stock percent
= 0.02 × 0.25+ 0.12 × 0.60 + 0.09 × 0.15
= 0.005 + 0.072 + 0.135
= 0.212
Now
True initial cost
= $70 million ÷ ( 1 - 0.212)
= $70 million ÷ 0.788
= $88,832,487.31

The present value of $1 and present value of an annuity of $1 for different periods is presented below. Compute the net present value of the machine.Periods Present Valueof $1 at 10% Present Value of anAnnuity of $1 at 10%1 0.9091 0.90912 0.8264 1.73553 0.7514 2.48694 0.6830 3.1699
Answer:
NPV = $23,773.65
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator:
Cash flow in year 0 = $-80,000
Cash flow each year for 1 and 2 = $35,000
Cash flow each year for 3 and 4 = $30,000
I = 10%
NPV = $23,773.65
To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion for May.2. Compute the cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion for May.3. Compute the cost of ending work in process inventory for materials, conversion, and in total for May.4. Compute the cost of units transferred out to the next department for materials, conversion, and in total for May.5. Prepare a cost reconciliation report for May.
Answer:
1.Total Equivalent Units Materials 471,600 Conversion 464,400
2. Cost Per Equivalent Unit Materials $ 1.33 Conversion $ 0.75
3. Cost of Ending Work In Process $ 39528
4. Cost Of Units Transferred Out = $ 936,000
5. Cost Materials $ 627 228 and Conversion $348,300
Explanation:
Builder Products, Inc.,
Weighted-Average Method
1. Equivalent Units
Particulars Units % of Completion Equivalent Units
Materials Conversion Materials Conversion
Transferred Out 450000 100 100 450,000 450,000
Ending WIP 36000 60 40 21,600 14,400
Total Equivalent Units 471,600 464,400
Transferred Out units are calculated by adding Opening Inventory and production started and subtracting ending inventory units.
Transferred Out units = Opening Inventory+ production started -ending inventory units
Transferred Out units =76,000 + 410,00 - 36000= 450000 units.
2. Cost Per Equivalent Units
Materials Conversion
Cost Of Opening Inventory 117,900 53600
Cost Added 613,080 294,700
Total Costs 624,980 348,300
Equivalent Units 471,600 464,400
Cost per Equivalent Unit 624980/471600 348300/464400
$ 1.33 $ 0.75
3. Cost of Ending Work In Process $ 39528
Materials = 21600 * $ 1.33= $ 28728
Conversion = 14400 * $ 0.75= $10800
We multiply the equivalent number of units with the cost per unit to find the cost.
4. Cost Of Units Transferred Out = $ 936,000
Materials = 450 000 * $ 1.33= $ 598,500
Conversion = 450000 * $ 0.75 = $ 337,500
5. A Cost Reconciliation Report
Materials Conversion
Ending WIP $ 28728 $10800
Transferred Out $ 598,500 $ 337,500
Total 627 228** 348,300
These calculated costs reconcile with the costs given in the above data.
Materials Conversion
Cost Of Opening Inventory 117,900 53600
Cost Added 613,080 294,700
Total Costs 624,980** 348,300
The difference is in the cost of materials which is actually 624,980** and we found it out to be 627 228** . This is because we rounded the Cost per Equivalent Unit of material from $ 1.325 to $1.33
If we multiply 1.325 * 471,600 we get $ 624870 which is almost the same.
Piedmont Hotels is an all-equity company. Its stock has a beta of .94. The market risk premium is 7.5 percent and the risk-free rate is 3.3 percent. The company is considering a project that it considers riskier than its current operations so it wants to apply an adjustment of 2.5 percent to the project's discount rate. What should the firm set as the required rate of return for the project
Answer:
Required rate of return for the project = 9.7%
Explanation:
The risk-adjusted discount factor = cost of equity + the adjustment
Cost of equity can be calculated using the capital asset pricing model CAPM
Using the CAPM , the rate of return on equity can be determined as follows:
E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)
E(r) =? , Rf- 3.3%, Rm- 7.5%, β- 0.94
Cost of equity = Rf + β (Rm -Rf)
Cost of equity = 3.3% + 0.94×(7.5-3.3)= 7.248
The risk-adjusted discount factor= 7.248 + 2.5= 9.748
Required rate of return for the project = 9.7%

Explanation:
Stiller Corporation incurred fixed manufacturing costs of $24,000 during 2015. Other information for 2015 includes: The budgeted denominator level is 2,000 units. Units produced total 1,500 units. Units sold total 1,200 units. Beginning inventory was zero. The company uses absorption costing and the fixed manufacturing cost rate is based on the budgeted denominator level. Manufacturing variances are closed to cost of goods sold. Operating income using absorption costing will be ________ than operating income if using variable costing.
Answer:
Operating profit using absorption costing will be higher by $3,600 than operating income if using variable costing.
Explanation:
The difference between profit under variable costing and under absorption costing is simply the value of the change in inventory.
Usually, a decrease in inventory would cause profit under absorption costing to be lower . This is so because cost of goods sold would become higher leading to a lower profit . And vice versa
Difference in profit = POAR × change inventory
Predetermined Overhead absorption rate(POAR)
= Estimated overhead/ estimated production unit
= $24,000/2,000 units = $12 per unit
Change in inventory = 1500 - 1200= 300 units
Difference in profit = 300 × $12 per unit = $3,600
Operating profit using absorption costing will be higher by $3,600 than operating income if using variable costing.

Due to historical differences, countries often differ in how quickly a change in actual inflation is incorporated into a change in expected inflation. In a country such as Japan, which has had very little inflation in recent memory, it will take longer for a change in the actual inflation rate to be reflected in a corresponding change in the expected inflation rate. In contrast, in a country such as Zimbabwe, which has recently had very high inflation, a change in the actual inflation rate will immediately be reflected in a corresponding change in the expected inflation rate.
