Scenario 28-1 Suppose that the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the entire adult population of Mankiwland can be categorized as follows: 25 million people employed, 3 million people unemployed, 1 million discouraged workers, and 1 million people who are either students, homemakers, retirees, or other people not seeking employment. Refer to Scenario 28-1. How many people are unemployed

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 3 million.

Explanation:

Unemployment is defined as when a member of a Country's labor force is jobless but actively looking for work.

In the Scenario 28-1, the discouraged people are not counted as they are discouraged and not looking for work and 1 million other people being students and retirees amongst others are not looking for work either.

The unemployed section of Mankiwland is therefore the 3 million unemployed people.

Analysis reveals that a company had a net increase in cash of $22,750 for the current year. Net cash provided by operating activities was $20,500; net cash used in investing activities was $11,250 and net cash provided by financing activities was $13,500. If the year-end cash balance is $27,750, the beginning cash balance was: Multiple Choice $5,000. $17,750. $50,500. $45,500. $44,500.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer = $5,000

Explanation:

First of all, let us find the difference between the total cash provided and the total cash used up within the period:

Total cash provided = operating activities + financing activities

Total cash provided = 20,500 + 13,500 = $34,000

Total cash used up = investing activities = $11,250

Retained balance from the activities of the period = Total cash provided - Total cash used up

= 34,000 - 11,250 = $22,750

Retained balance from the activities of the period = $22,750

However, we are told that the year-end cash balance = $27,750. This means that the excess cash on the retained balance from operating activities within the period is from the beginning cash balance, and this is calculated as follows:

year-end cash balance = Retained balance from the activities  + beginning cash balance

27,750 = 22,750 + beginning cash balance

∴ beginning cash balance = 27,750 - 22,750 = $5,000

∴ beginning cash balance = $5,000

Answers

Answer:

Net income= $4,836,200

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Offer:

21,000 units for $77.4

An increase in variable cost= $7.6 per unit

Direct materials $ 12.50 $ 1,050,000

Direct labor 15.00 1,260,000

Variable manufacturing overhead 14.00 1,176,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead 17.50 1,470,000

Variable selling and administrative expenses 14.00 1,176,000

Fixed selling and administrative expenses 13.00 1,092,000

Totals $ 86.00 $ 7,224,000

First, we need to calculate the effect on the income of accepting the offer:

Effect on income= 21,000*77.4 - 21,000*(12.5 + 15 + 14 + 14 + 7.6)

Effect on income= 1,625,400 - 1,325,100

Effect on income= 300,300

Net income= 84,000*140 + 300,300 - 7,224,000

Net income= $4,836,200

All of the material purchased was used to produce 2,500 units of Zoom. 450 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $4,500. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.

Answers

Answer:

1. Material Variances

Material Price Variance = $3,850 F

Material Quantity Variance = $5,200 U

2. Labor Variances

Labor Rate Variance = $1,350 U

Labor Efficiency Variance = $2,100 F

Explanation:

Calculation is as follows:

1. Material Variances

Material Price Variance = (Standard Price - Actual Price) x Actual units

Material Price Variance = ($2.60 - $2.4) x 19,250 pounds

Material Price Variance = $3,850 (favorable)

As the actual rate is less than standard rate the variance is favorable.

Standard Quantity = 2,500 x 6.9 = 17,250 pounds

Material Quantity Variance = (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) x Standard Rate

Material Quantity Variance = (17,250 - 19,250) x $2.60

Material Quantity Variance = $5,200 (Unfavorable)

As the actual raw material quantity used is higher than standard raw material quantity the variance is unfavorable.

2. Labor Variances

Actual Labor Rate = 4,500/450 = $10/hour

Labor Rate Variance = (Standard Rate - Actual Rate) x Actual Hours

Labor Rate Variance = ($7 - $10) x 450

Labor Rate Variance = $1,350 (Unfavorable)

As actual rate is higher than standard rate thus the variance is unfavorable.

Standard Hours = 2,500 x 0.3 = 750

Labor Efficiency Variance = (Standard Hours - Actual Hours) x Standard Rate

Labor Efficiency Variance = (750 - 450) x $7

Labor Efficiency Variance = $2,100 (Favorable)

As the Standard Hours is more than Actual Hours the variance is favorable.

i. Discuss the rationale of organizing an industrial strike in resolving employee dispute with the
state, focusing on the detrimental effects strikes has on various stakeholders in an economy.

Answers

Answer: The answer is provided below

Explanation:

Strike action, is a work stoppage, that is caused by mass refusal of employees to work and it usually takes place in response to the employee grievances.

Some of the reasons for strike include:

• Low wages: Employees engage in strik as a way to show their grievances to their employers that they're not well paid and want a pay rise.

• Poor communication with the organisation: Another reason for strikes is the lack of trust between employers and the trade unions. In cases whereby workers believe their employers aren't transparent with them, strike can take place.

• Employee debt: When employees are owed certain amount of money and the employer is not doing anything reasonable about paying, the workers may strike.

• Working conditions: Workers can engage in strike in order to seek for improvement in their working conditions. This may be probably because they need better equipments, medical facilities etc.

The detrimental effects that strikes has on various stakeholders in an economy are:

Effects on employers: Strike affects business and it is vital for employers to know their rights and keep up to date with the current labour laws and legislation. Strike leads to loss of revenue for the owner and if the strike continues.for a long time, it can badly affect the business.

Effects on employees: Striking employees who belong to a union are under the obligation to strike when the union wants. They can be at risk of losing their wages and benefits such as sick and holiday pay, medical aid insurance if the strike drags continues for an extended period of time.

Effect on the economy: The impact of strike will be felt by the economy in the immediate and long term future. Strike can harm a country’s investment and reputation internationally. The GDP growth will also be affected and consequences of higher wages in some sectors would lead to higher inflation.

Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances At the beginning of June, Bezco Toy Company budgeted 10,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct materials and direct labor costs as follows: Direct materials $10,500 Direct labor 4,800 Total $15,300 The standard materials price is $0.7 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $12 per hour. At the end of June, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows: Actual direct materials $9,500 Actual direct labor 4,400 Total $13,900 There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct materials inventory balances in June. Bezco Toy Company actually produced 8,800 units during June. Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal places, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

Answers

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance = -$260 Unfavorable

Direct labor time variance = -$176 Unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances is shown below:-

Direct material quantity variance = (Standard Direct material ÷ Company budgeted × Produced units) - Actual direct material

= ($10,500 ÷ 10,000 × 8,800) - $9,500

= ($1.05 × 8,800) - $9,500

= $9,240 - $9,500

= -$260 Unfavorable

Direct labor time variance = (Standard Direct labor ÷ Company budgeted × Produced units) - Actual direct labor

= ($4,800 ÷ 10,000 × 8,800) - $4,400

= $0.48 × 8,800) - $4,400

= $4,224 - $4,400

= -$176 Unfavorable

Therefore we have applied the above formula.

What pricing strategy is Eastman, Inc., following for this product? Check My Work

Answers

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Sales price variance = (Actual price - Budgeted price) * Actual units sold

Product R : ($25 - $26) * 123000 = $123000 unfavorable

Product S:($20 - $22) * 162700 = $325400 unfavorable

Product T: ($10 - $20) * 54000 = $540000 unfavorable

Sales volume variance = (Actual units - Budgeted units) * Standard price

Product R : (120000 - 123000) * 26 = $78000 favorable

Product S:(150000 - 162700) * 22 = $279400 favorable

Product T: (20000 - 54000) * 20 = $680000 favorable

Notes:

Actual units:

Product R = $3075000/ $25 = 123000

Product S = $3254000/$20 = 162700

Product T = $540000/$10 = 54000 units

In the market for lock washers, a perfectly competitive market, the current equilibrium price is $5 per box. Washer King, one of the many producers of washers, has a daily short-run total cost given by TC = 190 + 0.20Q + 0.0025Q2, where Q measures boxes of washers. Washer King's corresponding marginal cost is MC = 0.20 + 0.005Q. How many boxes of washers should Washer King produce per day to maximize profit?

Answers

Answer:

The number of boxes of washers Washer King should produce per day to maximize profit = 960 boxes.

And the corresponding maximum daily profit = $2,114

Explanation:

The daily, short-run total cost of producing Q boxes of the product is given as

TC = 190 + 0.20Q + 0.0025Q²

The unit price of the product = $5.

Total revenue = (Unit Price) × (Quantity sold) = 5Q

Profit = (Revenue) - (Total Cost)

Profit = 5Q - (190 + 0.20Q + 0.0025Q²)

Profit = P(Q) = -190 + 4.8Q - 0.0025Q²

To maximize the profits, we just obtain the point where the profit function reaches a Maximum.

At the maximum of a function, (dP/dQ) = 0 and (d²P/dQ²) < 0

Profit = P(Q) = -190 + 4.8Q - 0.0025Q²

(dP/dQ) = 4.8 - 0.005Q

At maximum point,

(dP/dQ) = 4.8 - 0.005Q = 0

Q = (4.8/0.005) = 960 boxes

(d²P/dQ²) = -0.005 < 0 (hence, showing that the this point corresponds to a maximum point truly)

Hence, the number of boxes of washers Washer King should produce per day to maximize profit = 960 boxes.

The corresponding maximum profit is then obtained from

P(960) = -190 + (4.8×960) - 0.0025(960²)

Maximum daily profit = $2,114

Molly is a 30% partner in the MAP Partnership. During the current tax year, the partnership reported ordinary income of $200,000 before any permitted deduction for guaranteed payments and distributions to partners. The partnership made an ordinary cash distribution of $20,000 to Molly and made guaranteed payments to partners Molly, Amber, and Pat of $20,000 each ($60,000 total guaranteed payments). How much will Molly's adjusted gross income increase as a result of these items

Answers

Answer:

$62,000

Explanation:

The partnership had a total ordinary income of $200,000. Then guaranteed payments were made to its three partners Molly, Amber and Pat of $20,000 each $20,000 x 3 = $60,000.

$200,000 - 60000

= $140,000

So the partnership adjusted income is reduced to $140,000, out of that amount, 30% belongs to Molly.

30/100 × 140,000

= $42,000

Molly's share of the partnership adjusted income is $42,000.

Molly's total earnings from the partnership are $62,000

= $20,000 + $42,000

= $62,000

During​ 2017, Chris transferred property​ (basis of​ $100,000 and FMV of​ $120,000) as a contribution to the capital of Cooper. During February​ 2018, Cooper adopted a plan of liquidation and subsequently made a pro rata distribution of the property back to Carole and Chris. At the time of the​ liquidation, the property had an FMV of​ $80,000. What amount of loss can be recognized by Cooper on the distribution of​ property?

Answers

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

Since 100% of Cooper Corporation's stock were owned by Carole and Chris (who are siblings), then no one can recognize any loss or gain from the contribution of property (nor the distribution of property). Under section 351, no gain or loss can be recognized for the contribution of property in exchange for stocks in a controlled corporation.

Since the contribution was made through a carryover basis transaction less than 5 years before the liquidation, the distribution is carried out in the same way.

The amount of the short-term notes payable that should be reported as current liabilities on the December 31, 2019 balance sheet which is issued on March 5, 2020 is

Answers

Answer:

$1,800,000

Explanation:

Given short term notes payable = $3,000,000

Total amount used to liquidate short term notes = $2,200,000

Balance = $3,000,000 - $2,200,000 = $800,000

The additional $1,200,000 which is borrowed from Country Bank will not increase the short term notes payable because it's a long term credit

The additional $1,000,000 cash used will now be added to the balance amount

Amount to be reported as current liabilities = $1,000,000 + $800,000

= $1,800,000

Therefore the amount of the short-term notes payable that should be reported as current liabilities on the December 31, 2019 balance sheet which is issued on March 5, 2020 is $1,800,000

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of the material price variance is shown below:

= Actual Quantity × (Standard Price - Actual Price)

= $7,260 × (2,200 pounds × $3.10 per pound)

= $440 unfavorable

b. The computation of the material quantity variance is shown below:

= Standard Price × (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)

= $3.10 × (2,200 pounds - (190 units × 6 pounds))

= $3,286 unfavorable

c. Total material variance  

= Material price variance + material quantity variance

= $440 unfavorable + $3,286 unfavorable

= $3,726 unfavorable

d. The computation of the labor price variance is shown below:

= Actual Hours × (Actual price - Standard Price)  

= $7,623 -  (770 hours × $10)

= $77 favorable

e. The computation of the labor quantity variance is shown below:

= Standard Rate × (Actual Hours - Standard hours allowed for actual units)

= $10 × (770 hours - (190 units × 4 hours)

= $100 unfavorable

Total labor variance

= Labor rate variance + labor quantity variance

= $77 favorable + 100 unfavorable

= $23 unfavorable

Here for computing the Effective price received first we need to find out the profit on future contract which is here below:-

Profit on future contract = Futures prices of Nov 1 - Dec Future prices Dec

= $1015 - $981

= $34

Effective price received = November Price + Profit on future contract

= $980 + $34

= $1,014

The effective price (after taking account of hedging) received by the company for the commodity is $1,014.

First step

Future contract profit:

Future contract profit= $1015 - $981

Future contract profit= $34

Second step

Effective price :

Effective price = $980 + $34

Effective price= $1,014

Inconclusion the effective price (after taking account of hedging) received by the company for the commodity is $1,014.

Great Adventures Problem
[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]
Tony and Suzie see the need for a rugged all-terrain vehicle to transport participants and supplies. They decide to purchase a used Suburban on July 1, 2022, for $15,600. They expect to use the Suburban for five years and then sell the vehicle for $6,300. The following expenditures related to the vehicle were also made on July 1, 2022:_________.
1. The company pays $2,700 to GEICO for a one-year insurance policy.
2. The company spends an extra $6,600 to repaint the vehicle, placing the Great Adventures logo on the front hood, back, and both sides. An additional $2,900 is spent on a deluxe roof rack and a trailer hitch.
3. The painting, roof rack, and hitch are all expected to increase the future benefits of the vehicle for Great Adventures. In addition, on October 22, 2022, the company pays $2,200 for basic vehicle maintenance related to changing the oil, replacing the windshield wipers, rotating the tires, and inserting a new air filter.
Great Adventures
4. Record the depreciation expense and any other adjustments related to the vehicle on December 31, 2022. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The Journal entry is shown below:-

Amount should be capitalized for new vehicle = Cost + Painting and new logo cost + Deluxe Roof rack and trailer hitch

= $15,600 + $6,600 + $2,900

= $25,100

We took the cost of painting and deluxe roof and trailer hitch costs into account as they are supposed to increase the vehicle's future benefits.

Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Number of Years

= ($25,100 - $6,300) ÷ 5

= $3,760 per year

In the year 2022 vehicle is used only for 6 months (July to Dec), depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 is

= $3,760 × 6 ÷ 12

= $1,880

So, the Journal entry is

Depreciation expense Dr, $1,880

         To Accumulated Depreciation $1,880

(Being depreciation provided for the year 2022 is recorded)

Therefore for recording the depreciation provided for the year 2022 we simply debited the depreciation expenses while we credited the accumulated depreciation.

The journal entry will include a depreciation account as well as accumulated depreciation.

What is depreciation?

Depreciation can be defined as the amount deducted from the asset because of the wear and tear of the asset after its use Which will reduce the price of the asset.

Capitalization for a new car should be calculated as follows: Cost + Painting and Logo Cost + Deluxe Roof Rack and Trailer Hitch

= $15,600 + $6,600 + $2,900

= $25,100

We factored in the price of the painting, a luxurious roof, and a trailer hitch because such expenses should raise the car's potential future value.

Depreciation is calculated as (Cost - Salvage Value) x Years.

= ($25,100 - $6,300) ÷ 5

= $3,760 annually

For the year ending December 31, 2022, the depreciation expense for the automobile operated for only 6 months (July to December) is

= $3,760 × 6 ÷ 12

= $1,880

The journal entry is therefore

depreciation costs (dr.)  $1,880

accumulated depreciation     $1,880

The selling price of the company’s product is $50 per unit. Required:1. Assume that the company uses absorption costing:a. Compute the unit product cost.b. Prepare an income statement for the year.2. Assume that the company uses variable costing:a. Compute the unit product cost.b. Prepare an income statement for the year.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Variable costs per unit:

Direct materials $6

Direct labor $9

Variable manufacturing overhead $3

Variable selling and administrative $4

Fixed costs per year:

Fixed manufacturing overhead$300,000

Fixed selling and administrative $190,000

During the year, the company produced 25,000 units and sold 20,000 units.

The selling price of the company’s product is $50 per unit.

The difference between the absorption costing and variable costing methods is that the first one includes the fixed manufacturing overhead to the product cost.

1) Absorption costing:

Unitary fixed overhead= 300,000/25,000= $12 per unit

Unitary product cost= 6 + 9 + 3 + 12= $30

Income statement:

Sales= 20,000*50= 1,000,000

COGS= (20,000*30)= (600,000)

Gross profit= 400,000

Total selling and administrative= (190,000 + 20,000*4)= (270,000)

Net income= 130,000

2) Variable costing method:

Unitary variable cost= 6 + 9 + 3= $18

Income statement:

Sales= 1,000,000

Variable cost= (20,000*22)= (440,000)

Contribution margin= 560,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead= (300,000)

Fixed selling and administrative= (190,000)

net income= 70,000

Which of the following statements is FALSE? Group of answer choices The right discount rate for a cash flow is the rate of return available in the market on other investments of comparable risk and term. To compensate for the risk that they will receive less than promised if the firm defaults, investors demand a lower interest rate than the rate on U.S. Treasuries. The equivalent after-tax interest rate is r(1 - τ). The actual cash flow that the investor will get to keep will be reduced by the amount of any tax payments.

Answers

Answer:

To compensate for the risk that they will receive less than promised if the firm defaults, investors demand a lower interest rate than the rate on U.S. Treasuries.

Explanation:

Investors are risk averse, this means that they will always prefer those investments with lower risks. Since US treasuries are considered the safest investments,  they are used to calculate the risk free rate.

When investors invest in other securities (not US government) they will always demand a higher return because a private entity or even a state or local government can default on a their debt. That difference between the return yielded by a US security and the return from any other investment is called the risk premium.

With your team you are working on a project that is supposed to be completed in FOUR months. You planned that EACH MONTH you are going to spend $15000 on the work for the month. At the end of the FIRST month you have spent the expected amount of $15000, but you have completed only two thirds (2/3) of the work. Answer the following questions: a) What is the Earned Value at the end of the first month. b) Calculate the Cost Variance and the Schedule Variance c) Calculate the Cost Performance Index and the Schedule Performance Index d) Analyze the progress of the project. Is the project behind or on schedule

Answers

Answer:

(a). $10000.

(b). Cost variance and Scheduled variance = -$5000.

(c). 0.66 and 0.66.

(d). task is behind schedule and the task is over budget.

Explanation:

(a). Earned value at the end of the first month can be calculated by using the formula below;

= A × B.

Where A = first month budget and B = rate at which the work is getting completed.

Earned value at the end of the first month = 15000× (2/3)

Earned value at the end of the first month = $10000

(b). The Cost Variance and the Schedule Variance can be calculated using the formula below;

Cost variance = Earned value at the end of the first month - monthly budget

Cost variance= 10000 - 15000

Cost variance = -$5000

Also, the Scheduled variance = Earned value at the end of the first month - monthly budget

= 10000 - 15000

= - $5000

(c). The cost Performance Index and the Schedule Performance Index can be calculated by using the formula below;

Cost performnace index = 10000 / 15000

= 0.66

Schedule performance index = the amount Earned / the amount that was planned.

Schedule performance index = 10000 / 15000

= 0.66.

(d). Since both schedule performance index and the Cost performance index are less than one that is 0.66, task is behind schedule and the task is over budget respectively.

Andy Anderson is the only supplier of email updates on avalanche conditions in the mountains above the two towns of Vanee and Keno. The marginal cost of producing these updates is zero (with zero fixed costs) and the inverse demand for these updates in Vanee is p = 42-q and p = 9-q in Keno. Suppose that in each of the two towns, all of the demand comes from one customer. Andy cannot identify which customer is which. To get around this, he creates two kinds of packages, one containing 42 updates and one containing 9. He allows his customers to simply buy one and only one of the kind of package that they prefer. What is the maximum price Andy could charge for the large package if he wants the Vanee customer to buy the package of 42 and the Keno customer to buy the package of 9?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

He will charge for smaller package Equal to consumer surplus of keno customer with q = 9  

Price of small package = 1 / 2 * 9 * 9

                                       =40.5

If veno willingness to pay for 9 updates is

= 1 / 2 * 9 * 9 + 9 * (42 - 9)

= 40.5 + 9 * 33

= 40.5 + 297 = 337.5

So he will get surplus of (337.5 - 40.5 = 297 by buying smaller package.

Veno willingness to pay for larger package = 1/2 * 42 * 42 = 882

To make veno buy larger package ,andy need to make sure that veno also get same CONSUMERs surplus by buying larger package.

So price for larger package = 882 - 297 = 585

Answers

Answer:

$1,552,836

Explanation:

As the auction price is determined for whole company, which includes all the assets in the company. Auction price can be allocated to an asset based on its fair value ratio to total fair value of all assets.

As per given data

Fair Value of Assets

Land            $1,795,000

Building       $2,840,000

Equipment  $2,180,000

Trucks         $3,180,000

Total           $9,995,000

Auction price allocation = (Fair value / Total Fair value of all assets) x Auction price

Placing values in the formula

Building = ( $2,840,000 / $9,995,000) x $5,465,000

Building = $1,552,836

What is the target variable cost per unit assuming units sold are equal to units​ produced

Answers

Answer:

Target unitary variable cost= $240 per unit

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales in units= 2,000

Selling price= $470

Total cost= $800,000 per year

Fixed costs= $320,000 per year.

First, we need to calculate the total variable cost:

Total variable cost= total cost - total fixed costs

Total variable cost= 800,000 - 320,000

Total variable cost= 480,000

Now, we can calculate the target unitary variable cost:

Target unitary variable cost= 480,000/2,000

Target unitary variable cost=$240 per unit

Round to the nearest whole dollar. $ Will the present value of your winnings using an interest rate of 12% be more than the present value of your winnings using an interest rate of 5%?

Answers

Answer:

Present value = $31,047,749

No. The present value when the interest rate is 12% is less than the present value when the interest rate is 5%

Explanation:

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows.

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 8 = $6,250,000

I = 12%

Present value = $31,047,748.54

Present value when interest rate is 5% = $40,395,079.75

The present value when interest rate is 5% is greater than the present value when interest rate is 12%

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.
