Answer:
a. $42,780
b. $7,900
c. $50,680
Explanation:
Cost of goods transferred to finished goods inventory.
Total Cost = Total unit Cost x Units Transferred
= $4.60 x 9,300 units
= $42,780
Cost of the ending work-in-process inventory
Total Cost = Material Cost + Conversion Cost
= ($3.00 x 2,500) + ($1.60 x 2,500 x 0.10)
= $7,500 + $400
= $7,900
Total cost of the beginning work-in-process inventory plus the current manufacturing costs
This amount equals the sum of Cost of goods transferred to finished goods inventory and Cost of the ending work-in-process inventory.
Thus,
Total Cost = $42,780 + $7,900
= $50,680

Assume the company uses absorption costing. Determine its product cost per unit.
Answer:
Cool Sky
The product cost per unit under absorption costing is:
= $7.20
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
First year production units = 40,000
First year sales units = 32,000
Ending inventory = 8,000 (40,000 - 32,000)
Selling price per unit = $110
Sales revenue = $3,520,000 (32,000 * $110)
Manufacturing costs
Direct materials per unit $ 42
Direct labor per unit $ 16
Variable overhead per unit $ 5
Fixed overhead for the year $ 360,000
Selling and administrative costs:
Variable selling and administrative cost per unit $ 10
Fixed selling and administrative cost per year $ 115,000
Production Cost per Unit under Absorption Costing:
Manufacturing costs: Unit Total
Direct materials per unit $ 42
Direct labor per unit $ 16
Variable overhead per unit $ 5
Total variable cost per unit $63 $2,520,000
Fixed overhead for the year $ 360,000
Total production cost for 40,000 $2,880,000
Unit product cost = $7.20 ($2,880,000/40,000)
Alpha Enterprises currently operates 8 warehouses and holds a total inventory of 3,600 units. They want to reduce their inventory to 1,800 units. They should reduce the number of warehouses to:
Answer:
4 warehouses
Explanation:
Total warehouse = 8
Total inventory = 3,600 units
Units per warehouse = Total inventory /Total warehouse
Units per warehouse = 3,600 / 8
Units per warehouse = 450
Now, Alpha Enterprises wants to reduce their inventory to 1,800 units, the number of warehouse should then be:
= 1,800 units / 450 units
= 4 warehouses.
Blue Co. recorded a right-of-use asset of $210,000 in a 10-year operating lease. Payments of $37,167 are made annually at the end of each year. The interest rate charged by the lessor was 12% and was known by Blue. The balance in the right-of-use asset after two years will be:
Answer:
The balance in the right-of-use asset after two years will be $184,629.96.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
First year interest = Cost of the right-of-use asset * Interest rate = $210,000 * $12% = $25,200
Principal paid in the first year = Annual payment - First year interest = $37,167 - $25,200 = $11,967
Balance in the right-of-use asset after one year = Cost of the right-of-use asset - Principal paid in the first year = $210,000 - $11,967 = $198,033
Second year interest = Balance in the right-of-use asset after one year * Interest rate = $198,033 * $12% = $23,763.96
Principal paid in the second year = Annual payment - Second year interest = $37,167 - $23,763.96 = $13,403.04
Balance in the right-of-use asset after two years = Balance of the right-of-use asset after one year - Principal paid in the second year = $198,033 - $13,403.04 = $184,629.96
Therefore, the balance in the right-of-use asset after two years will be $184,629.96.
What is result driven
Answer:
Being result-driven means that you are driven by the outcome of your goal rather than the process itself. It means that you put in effort and energy in order to get the best results in the end. I think I'm a result-driven person since I strive to get high grades and also because I'm a perfectionist. All in all being result-driven means that you are an individual that strives for the end goal/result that comes from your exertion of effort in that subject area.

Strong, Inc., bundles two kinds of service activities into a single $6,000 fixed-price contract, yielding two distinct performance obligations, A and B. Each activity has a stand-alone selling price of $3,200. Obligation A is satisfied immediately upon contract signing. Obligation B is satisfied evenly over an eight-month period. After the date of contract signing and the satisfaction of obligation A, two months have passed. Cumulatively, how much revenue should Strong, Inc., recognize by the end of the second month
Answer:
the revenue recognized is $3,750
Explanation:
The computation of the revenue that recognized by the end of the second month is given below:
= $6,000 ÷ $6,400 × $3,200 + $6,000 ÷ $6,400 × $3,200 × 2 months ÷ 8 months
= $3,750
The $6,400 comes from
= $3,200 + $3,200
= $6,400
Hence, the revenue recognized is $3,750
g What is the after-tax yield on a one-year corporate bond with a 7 percent yield if your marginal federal income tax rate is 40% 2.8% 4.2% 5% 5.3% 6.2%
Answer: 4.2%
Explanation:
Bonds are debt instruments which means that the interest paid on bonds is tax deductible. After the tax is deducted, the after tax yield shows the actual yield being paid on the bond given the tax rate.
The after tax yield on a bond is calculated by the formula:
= Before tax yield * ( 1 - Tax rate)
= 7% * ( 1 - 40%)
= 4.2%
Perpetual Life Corp. has issued consol bonds with coupon payments of $50. (Consols pay interest forever and never mature. They are perpetuities.)a. If the required rate of return on these bonds at the time they were issued was 5.0%, at what price were they sold to the public
Answer: $1,000
Explanation:
The price of a perpetual bond is calculated like a perpetuity and this is calculated by dividing the coupon payment of the bond by the prevailing required rate of return.
Price of this bond is:
= Coupon payment / Required return
= 50 / 5%
= $1,000
Mcdormand inc reported a 3400 unfavorable price variance for variable overhead and a $34,000 nfavorable price variance for fixed overhead. The flexible budget had variable overhead based on 36,100 direct labor-hours; only 34,100 hours were worked. Total actual overhead was $1,810,400. The number of estimated hours for computing the fixed overhead application rate totaled 37,500 hours.
Required:
a. Prepare a variable overhead analysis.
b. Prepare a fixed overhead analysis.
Answer:
A. Variable overhead price variance 3400 U
Variable overhead efficiency variance 60000 F
Variable overhead cost variance 56600 F
B. Fixed overhead price variance 34000 U
Production volume variance 28000 U
Fixed overhead cost variance 62000 U
Explanation:
a. Preparation of a variable overhead analysis.
Variable overhead price variance = 3400 U
Calculation for Variable overhead efficiency variance
First step is to calculate the Actual input at standard rate
Actual input at standard rate = (34100*30)
Actual input at standard rate= 1023000
Second step is to calculate the Standard rate
Standard rate = 1083000/36100
Standard rate=30
Now let calculate Variable overhead efficiency variance
Variable overhead efficiency variance = (1083000-1023000)
Variable overhead efficiency variance = 60000 F
Calculation for Variable overhead cost variance
Variable overhead cost variance = (60000-3400)
Variable overhead cost variance= 56600 F
Therefore the variable overhead analysis will be:
Variable overhead price variance 3400 U
Variable overhead efficiency variance 60000 F
Variable overhead cost variance 56600 F
b. Preparation of a fixed overhead analysis.
Fixed overhead price variance = 34000 U
Calculation for Production volume variances
First step is to calculate Actual input at standard rate
Actual input at standard rate= 34100*30
Actual input at standard rate= 1023000
Second step is to calculate Fixed overhead actual
Fixed overhead actual= 1810400-(1023000+3400)
Fixed overhead actual= 784000
Third step is to calculate Budgeted fixed overhead
Budgeted fixed overhead = (784000-34000)
Budgeted fixed overhead = 750000
Fourth step is to calculate Fixed overhead applied
Fixed overhead applied= (750000/37500)*36100
Fixed overhead applied= 722000
Now let calculate Production volume variance
Production volume variance = (750000-722000) Production volume variance= 28000 U
Calculation to determine Fixed overhead cost variance
Fixed overhead cost variance = (28000+34000) Fixed overhead cost variance= 62000 U
Therefore fixed overhead analysis will be:
Fixed overhead price variance 34000 U
Production volume variance 28000 U
Fixed overhead cost variance 62000 U
Payment of an above-market wage reduces shirking by employees and reduces worker turnover because it multiple choice 2 decreases worker productivity. raises the opportunity cost of losing a job. lowers the opportunity cost of losing a job. creates more supervisory positions.
Answer:
raises the opportunity cost of losing a job.
Explanation:
Opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.
Simply stated, it is the cost of not enjoying the benefits, profits or value associated with the alternative forgone or best alternative choice available.
For example, when a business firm makes payment of an above-market wage, it reduces shirking (avoiding responsibilities) by employees and reduces worker turnover because it raises the opportunity cost of losing a job. Thus, employees take their jobs seriously and do not miss work unnecessarily due to the payment of an above-market wage.
If a firm is privately owned, and its stock is not traded in public markets, then we cannot measure its beta for use in the CAPM model, we cannot observe its stock price for use in the dividend growth model, and we don't know what the risk premium is for use in the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium method. All this makes it especially difficult to estimate the cost of equity for a private company. True False
Answer: True
Explanation:
Beta enables us to be able to calculate the risk of a stock in relation to how the market is moving. This is known as the systematic risk. Beta, needs to be calculated on based on the trading data of the stock.
If the stock is not publicly traded, it would not have the trading data required to find the beta. As we cannot get the beta, we would be unable it to calculate the return on stock and therefore the dividend growth model.
A restaurant is considering buying a new coffee making machine, which will be replaced over and over with a new one when an old one dies. Each coffee making machine costs $143,000, and is expected to die after exactly 6-years. Each machine will costs $10,200 per year to operate. The discount rate that the restaurant assigns to this coffee making machine project is 11 percent per year. The straight-line depreciation method would be used when calculating the machine's loss of value for tax purposes. Each coffee making machine will be fully depreciated all the way to zero at the end of its life. Also, each coffee making machine will have a before-tax salvage value of $10,500 at the end of its life. The restaurant's tax rate is 25 percent. As always, assume that all cash flows occur at year end. If the restaurant buys a coffee making machine over and over in perpetuity, as soon as one dies, what would be the average, or the equivalent, annual cost (EAC) of the machine?
Answer:
Coffee Making Restaurant
If the restaurant buys a coffee making machine in perpetuity, the equivalent annual cost (EAC) of the machine will be:
Equivalent annual cost of the machine = $44,994
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Initial investment cost of machine = $143,000
Expected useful life = 6 years
Discount rate = 11%
Annual operating cost = $10,200
Before-tax salvage value = $10,500
Applicable tax rate = 25%
After-tax salvage value = $7,875
Annuity factor for 6 years at 11% = 4.231
Present value of costs:
Initial investment = $143,000 ($143,000 * 1)
Annual operating cost = 43,156 ($10,200 * 4.231)
Salvage value = (4,213) ($7,875 * 0.535)
Total costs = $190,369
Equivalent annual cost of the machine = $44,994 ($190,369/4.231)

Married taxpayers Otto and Ruth are both self-employed and file a joint return. Otto earns $435,200 of self-employment income and Ruth has a self-employment loss of $23,100. How much 0.9 percent Medicare tax for high-income taxpayers will Otto and Ruth have to pay with their 2020 income tax return?
Answer: $1,458.90
Explanation:
As they are filing together, the first step would be to find out the taxable income after accounting for Ruth's loss.
Total taxable income = Otto's earnings - Ruth's loss
= 435,200 - 23,100
= $412,100
There is an additional 0.9% Medicare tax on the amount that people file that is above $250,000 when they file jointly and are married..
The additional Medicare will be:
= (412,100 - 250,000) * 0.9%
= $1,458.90
Consider the three stocks in the following table. Pt represents price at time t, and Qt represents shares outstanding at time t. Stock C splits two-for-one in the last period.
P0 Q0 P1 Q1 P2 Q2
A 99 100 104 100 104 100
B 59 200 54 200 54 200
C 118 20 128 200 64 400
Calculate the first-period rates of return on the following indexes of the three stocks:
a. A market value–weighted index
b. An equally weighted index.
Answer:
a. Rate of return = 94.51%
b. Rate of return = 1.68%
Explanation:
a. A market value–weighted index
Total market value at time 0 = Market value of Stock A at time 0 + Market value of Stock B at time 0 + Market value of Stock C at time 0 = ($99 * 100) + ($59 * 200) + ($118 * 20) = $24,060
Total market value at time 1 = Market value of Stock A at time 1 + Market value of Stock B at time 1 + Market value of Stock C at time 1 = ($104 * 100) + ($54 * 200) + ($128 * 200) = $46,800
Rate of return = (Total market value at time 1 / Total market value at time 0) – 1 = ($46,800 / $24,060) - 1 = 0.9451, or 94.51%
b. An equally weighted index
Return on a Stock for the first period = (P1 / P0) - 1 …………. (1)
Therefore, we have:
Return on Stock A for the first period = ($104 / $99) - 1 = 0.0505, or 5.05%
Return on Stock B for the first period = ($54 / $59) - 1 = - 0.0847, or - 8.47%
Return on Stock C for the first period = ($128 / $118) - 1 = 0.0847, or 8.47%
Therefore, we have:
Return of return = (Return on Stock A for the first period + Return on Stock B for the first period + Return on Stock C for the first period) / 3 = (5.05% - 8.47% + 8.47%) / 3 = 1.68%

Determine whether each of the following goods is a private good, a public good, a common resource, or a club good. Private Good Public Good Common Resource Club Good A stationary bike in a fitness room that is open to the public A large, beautiful clock in a town square A new drum set for you to play in your friend's band
Answer:
Common Resource
public good
private good
Explanation:
A club good is a type of public good. It is excludable but non-rivalrous. For example paid streaming services are an example of a club good. Those who do not subscribe are excluded from using the service. But all subscribers have equal assess to the service
A public good is a good that is non excludable and non rivalrous. Everyone has assess to the statue and because one person is enjoying the view of the clock does not means another person cannot enjoy the view of the clock
A private good is a good that is excludable and rivalrous. They are usually exchanged in the market by private sector businesses. It is only you who purchased the drum set and those you allow that can use the drum set.
A common resource is a good that is non excludable but rivalrous. The bike in the fitness room is an example. Because the gym is open to anyone, it is non excludable. Only one person can use it at a time, thus it is rivalrous

Is it true that in a short-run production process, the marginal cost curve eventually slopes upward because firms have to pay workers a higher wage rate as they produce more output? Explain your answer.
Answer:
Yes, This is True.
Explanation:
Marginal cost is the cost of one additional unit. The marginal cost curve will slope upwards because firm will pay more wage to the worker who produce more output. This can be regarded as the increase in output leads to increased wage rate. The marginal cost curve will be upward sloping because there will be addition to the marginal cost due to increase in one unit of output.
Razor Corporation's cost of preferred stock is 8%. The company's stock sells for $100 a share with selling costs are $5. What is the annual dividend to the preferred stock
Answer:
Razor Corporation
The annual dividend to the preferred stockholders is:
= $8 per share
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of preferred stock = 8%
Selling price per preferred stock = $100
Annual dividend to the preferred stock = $100 * 8% = $8 per share
b) The $8 per share annual dividend of Razor's preferred stock dividend is computed by applying the fixed percentage to the preferred stock's total par value. In the above case, it is assumed that the par value or nominal value of the stock is $100. The cost of selling or issuing the stock is not factored when calculating the dividend.

Inventory is the raw material to goods or the stocks of finished goods that are ready to be sold. g
Answer:
1. Price ceilings are governmental price that are set below the market equilibrium price.
2. This kind of policy typically creates a shortage because the quantity demanded exceeds the quantity supplied.
3. Price floors are governmental price that are imposed above the market equilibrium price.
4. This kind of policy usually generates a surplus in the market because the quantity supplied exceeds the quantity demanded.
5. Shortages and surpluses are reflected in inventories. Inventory is the raw material which is processed to goods or the stocks of finished goods that are ready to be sold.
Explanation:
Price ceilings, as a part of the price control mechanisms, seem to benefit the consumers, while price floors are attempts to support suppliers and producers. While they roll back the excesses of market forces in determining the prices of goods and services, some unintended consequences, including allocative inefficiencies, usually arise from price ceilings and price floors. Therefore, they should be applied sparingly.
When the economy is in a recession, expansionary fiscal policy can be used to stimulate and encourage economic growth. Which of the following scenarios represent expansionary fiscal policies from both a supply and demand perspective at the same time? When choosing the answer, please look if it meets three description, expansionary, fiscal policies, and involving both the supply side and the demand side. (There could be more than one answer).
A. The government lowers tax rates and undertakes a replacement of old bridges and roads.
B.The government lowers tax rates and issues a partial refund of taxes that have already been paid.
C. The government raises tax rates and reduces unemployment insurance payments.
D. The Federal Reserve increases the money supply and lowers the interest rate while the government simultaneously reduces future taxes.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Discretionary fiscal policies are deliberate steps taken by the government to stimulate the economy in order to cause the economy to move to full employment and price stability more quickly than it might otherwise.
Discretionary fiscal policies can either be expansionary or contractionary
Expansionary fiscal policy is when the government increases the money supply in the economy either by increasing spending or cutting taxes.
If taxes are cut, disposable income increases and demand increases. this is an example of demand side
On the other hand, if a replacement project is undertaken, the demand for labour increases. this is an example of supply side
Contractionary fiscal policies is when the government reduces the money supply in the economy either by reducing spending or increasing taxes
Jane Industries manufactures plastic toys. During October, Jane's Fabrication Department started work on 10,000 models. During the month, the company completed 11,000 models, and transferred them to the Distribution Department. The company ended the month with 1,500 models in ending inventory. There were 2,500 models in beginning inventory. All direct materials costs are added at the beginning of the production cycle and conversion costs are added uniformly throughout the production process. The FIFO method of process costing is being followed. Beginning work in process was 25% complete as to conversion costs, while ending work in process was 50% complete as to conversion costs.
Required:
What were the equivalent units for conversion costs during October?
Answer:
11,125 units
Explanation:
Particulars Units
Beginning WIP (2500*0.75) 25% is completed 1,875
Units started and completed during the month 8500
[10,000 -1500 as ending Inventory]
Ending Inventory [1500*0.50] 750
Equivalent units 11,125
So, the equivalent units for conversion costs during October is 11,125 units
If the shadow price for a resource is 0 (the allowable increase is 1000) and 150 units of the resource are added what happens to the optimal solution
Answer:
The answer is "No change"
Explanation:
The optimal solution is a feasible alternative where the optimal solution reaches its highest (or lowest) values, including most profit and the price is lower. There is no other viable solution with an objective function that is universally ideal. Whenever the resource regression coefficient is 0, the best solution would not be changed.
War Eagle Distributing wants to determine the most efficient method of transporting its new product- The Charles Barkley Paperweight. This item has been offered for sale for several years, but Mr. Barkley's public persona and popularity have grown steadily, and the 6-year forecast calls for year 1 sales of 1,000 pallets, with year 2-6 sales increasing by 400 pallets each year. Estimated year 1 costs of two transportation options being considered are shown below.
Mode A Mode B
Variable Costs
Transportation Costs $240,000 $270,000
Inventory Cost $100,000 $30,000
Packaging Costs $120,000 $30,000
Fixed Cost $160,000 $420,000
Total Cost $620,000 $750,000
What is the Point of Indifference (where the total cost of each option is equal) in number of pallets?
a. 1,400
b. 1,800
c. 2,000
d. 2,400
e. 2,800
Answer:
c. 2,000
Explanation:
Total Variable cost = transportation cost + inventory cost + packaging costs
Total variable cost Mode A = $240,000 + $ 100,000 + $ 120,000 = $460,000
Cost per pallets = 460,000 / 1000 = 4600
Total variable cost Mode B = $270,000 + $ 30,000 + $ 30,000 = $330,000
Cost per pallet = 330,000 / 1000 = 3300
The variable cost for both mode will be equal if the company plans to produce 2000 pallets.
