Answer:
$8050
Explanation:
The direct materials quantity variance is the difference between the standard cost and the actual quantity at standard price. This variance in quantity is as a result of the difference between the actual and expected quantity of materials used. The formula for direct materials quantity variance is given as:
Direct materials quantity variance = Standard Price x (Standard Quantity – Actual Quantity)
Given that: Standard Price = $0.23, Standard Quantity = 535000, Actual Quantity = 500000.
Direct materials quantity variance = $0.23 × (535000 - 500000) = $8050
Oklahoma enacts a law requiring all businesses in the state to donate 10 percent of their profits to Protestant churches that provide services to indigent persons. Price-Lo Mart files a law suit to block the enforcement of the law. The court will probably decide that this law violates: a. the Free Exercise clause. b. the Supremacy clause. c. the Equal Protection clause. d. the Establishment clause.
Answer: d. the Establishment clause.
Explanation:
The Establishment Clause was put in place as a limitation by the United States Congress to prevent excesses or stop it from passing legislation forcing an establishment, religion, which broadly made it illegal for the government to promote theocracy or promote a specific religion with taxes. As this is the case with the state asking business to donate 10% of their profit to Protestant.
Answer:
The establishment clause.
Explanation:
Establishment clause, also called establishment-of-religion clause, clause in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution forbidding Congress from establishing a state religion. It prevents the passage of any law that gives preference to or forces belief in any one religion. It is paired with a clause that prohibits limiting the free expression of religion.
As the citizenry became more diverse, however, challenges arose to existing laws and practices, and eventually, the Supreme Court was called upon to determine the meaning of the establishment clause.
Though not explicitly stated in the First Amendment, the clause is often interpreted to mean that the Constitution requires the separation of church and state.
Alpine Thrills Ski Company recently expanded its manufacturing capacity. The firm will now be able to produce up to 32,000 pairs of cross-country skis of either the mountaineering model or the touring model. The sales department assures management that it can sell between 26,000 and 30,000 units of either product this year. Because the models are very similar, the company will produce only one of the two models.
The following information was compiled by the accounting department.
Model
Mountaineering Touring
Selling price per unit $ 149.00 $ 137.00
Variable costs per unit 87.70 87.70
Fixed costs will total $622,400 if the mountaineering model is produced but will be only $526,200 if the touring model is produced. Alpine Thrills Ski Company is subject to a 50 percent income tax rate.
Required:
Compute the contribution-margin ratio for the touring model. (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
If Alpine Thrills Ski Company desires an after-tax net income of $41,620, how many pairs of touring skis will the company have to sell? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to the nearest whole unit.)
How much would the variable cost per unit of the touring model have to change before it had the same break-even point in units as the mountaineering model? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
Suppose the variable cost per unit of touring skis decreases by 15 percent, and the total fixed cost of touring skis increases by 15 percent. Compute the new break-even point. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer up to nearest whole unit.)
Answer:
35.98%
12,362 pairs
$2.53
9,688 pairs
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
1)
As we know that
Contribution margin ratio = (Contribution margin per unit) ÷ (Selling price per unit) × 100
where,
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit\
So,
Selling price = $137.00
Variable cost = $87.70
Contribution Margin = $137.00 - $87.70 = $49.30
Contribution margin ratio = $49.30 ÷ $137.00
= 35.98%
2)
Net Income after tax = $41,620
Income Before tax = $41,620 ÷ 50%
= $83,240
Now Pairs of touring skis will be sold by company = (Income before tax + fixed cost) ÷ Contribution Margin
= ($83,240 + $526,200) ÷ $49.30
= 12,362 pairs
3)
Break-even of mountaineering model
= Fixed cost ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)
= $622,400 ÷ ($149 - $87.70)
= $10,153
Now Let Variable cost be Y
$10,153 = $526,200 ÷ ($137 - Y)
Y = $85.17
Therefore, Variable cost per unit decreased by
= ($87.70 - $85.17)
= $2.53
4)
New Fixed cost
= Fixed cost × increased percentage
= $526,200 × 1.15
= $605,130
New variable cost per unit
= $87.70 × 0.85
= $74.54
New Break-even point = New Fixed cost ÷ Contribution Margin
= $605,130 ÷ ($137-$74.54)
= 9,688 pairs
Suppose the interest rate is 4.3 %. a. Having $ 400 today is equivalent to having what amount in one year? b. Having $ 400 in one year is equivalent to having what amount today? c. Which would you prefer, $ 400 today or $ 400 in one year? Does your answer depend on when you need the money? Why or why not? a. Having $ 400 today is equivalent to having what amount in one year?
Answer: a. $417.2. b. $383.51. c. $400 today.
Explanation:
a. Present value = $400
Interest rate = 4.3%
Future value= PV(1+r)^n
= 400(1+0.043)^1
= 400(1.043)
= $417.2
b. FV = $400
PV = Unknown
Interest = 4.3%
Future value= PV(1+r)^n
400 = PV(1+0.043)^1
400 = PV(1.043)
PV = 400/1.043
PV = $383.51
c. I'll prefer $400 today.
My answer does not depend on me needing money presently, I can actually invest the $400 today and get more value when it's a year. I'll have made more than $400.
Elgin Battery Manufacturers had sales of $1,000,000 in 2009 and their cost of goods sold represented 70 percent of sales. Selling and administrative expenses were 10 percent of sales. Depreciation expense was $100,000 and interest expense for the year was $10,000. The firm's tax rate is 30 percent. What is the dollar amount of taxes paid
Answer:
$27,000
Explanation:
The dollar amount of taxes paid is the earnings before tax multiplied by the tax rate.
The earnings before tax=sales-costs of sale-selling and administrative expenses-depreciation expense-interest expense
sales is $1,000,000
costs of sales=$1000,000*70%=$700,000
selling and administrative expenses=10%*$1,000,000=$100,000
depreciation expense=$100,000
interest expense=$10,000
earnings before tax=$1,000,000-$700,000-$100,000-$100,000-$10,000=$90,000
taxes paid=$90000 *30%=$27,000
In conducting the audit procedures for the search for unrecorded liabilities, the materiality/scope for this area was accessed by the auditors at $5,000. Adjustments are only recorded for individual items equal to or exceeding materiality. The company fiscal year end is December 31, 2019 and the last day of fieldwork is estimated to be February 1, 2020. Below is an item from the check/cash disbursement register, which is not recorded in the accounts payable subsidiary ledger at December 31, 2019. Daniel Breen, Esquire Check Number 1334 Check Date 1/6/2020 Amount $6,000 Nature of the Expenses: Corporate legal services for December 2019 Required: Determine if this check/cash disbursement is recorded in the proper accounting period. This transaction requires an accounting adjustment to the financial statements for the fiscal year ending 12/31/2019 - If you believe that statement is correct - answer "Yes" This transaction does NOT require an accounting adjustment to the financial statements for the fiscal year ending 12/31/2019 - If you believe that statement is correct - answer "No."
Answer:
"No."
This transaction does NOT require an accounting adjustment to the financial statements for the fiscal year ending 12/31/2019 - If you believe that statement is correct - answer "No."
Explanation:
The check disbursement does not require an adjustment to the financial statements for the fiscal year ending 12/31/2019, because the check is dated 1/6/2020.
Adjusting entries are changes to the journal entries which tries to match transactions to their correct accounting periods. A check dated January 6, 2020 does not belong to the fiscal year ending December, 2019.
Adjusting entries are usually for Accrued Revenue, Accrued Expenses, Deferred Revenue, Prepaid Expenses, and Depreciation Expenses.
Bottum Corporation, a manufacturing Corporation, has provided data concerning its operations for May. The beginning balance in the raw materials account was $23,500 and the ending balance was $43,000. Raw materials purchases during the month totaled $70,000. Manufacturing overhead cost incurred during the month was $114,500, of which $2,700 consisted of raw materials classified as indirect materials. The direct materials cost for May was:
Answer:
Direct Materials Used In May $ 50,500
Explanation:
Bottum Corporation
We add the beginning inventory with the purchases and subtract the ending inventory to get the direct materials used.
Beginning balance Raw materials $23,500
Add Raw materials purchases $70,000
Less Ending balance Raw materials $43,000
Direct Materials Used In May $ 50,500
The cost of the purchases remains the same that is $ 70,000 but the direct materials used during May are $ 50,500
Answer:
$47,800
Explanation:
Direct materials cost= beginning raw material inventory + raw material purchases - ending raw materials
$23,500 + $70,000- $43,000 - 2700 = $47,800
Smart Stream Inc. uses the total cost method of applying the cost-plus approach to product pricing. The costs of producing and selling 10,000 units of cell phones are as follows: Variable costs per unit: Fixed costs: Direct materials $150 Factory overhead $350,000 Direct labor 25 Selling and administrative expenses 140,000 Factory overhead 40 Selling and administrative expenses 25 Total variable cost per unit $240 Smart Stream desires a profit equal to a 30% return on invested assets of $1,200,000. a. Determine the total costs and the total cost amount per unit for the production and sale of 10,000 cellular phones.
Answer:
Smart Stream Inc.
a) Total costs:
Variable costs:
Direct materials = $1,500,000 ($150 x 10,000)
Direct labor = $250,000 ($25 x 10,000)
Factory overhead = $400,000 ($40 x 10,000)
Selling and Administrative = $250,000( $25 x 10,000)
Total variable costs = $2,400,000 ($240 x 10,000)
Fixed Costs:
Factory overhead = $350,000
Selling and admin = $140,000
Total fixed costs = $490,000
I) Total costs = variable plus fixed costs = $2,890,000 ($2,400,000 + 490,000)
II) Total cost per unit = $289 ($2,890,000/10,000)
Explanation:
The total cost method includes all the costs in arriving at the unit cost before adding the desired profit to arrive at the selling price of a product.
Total costs include the cost of goods sold and the expenses incurred in running the business for the period.
It is unlike the product cost-plus and variable cost-plus approaches to product pricing. For the product cost-plus approach, only the costs of production is taken into consideration for arriving at the selling price. In that case, the costs of direct materials and labor, and factory overheads would be considered, while variable and fixed selling and administrative costs are excluded. The unit cost would have been $250.
The variable cost-plus approach considers only the variable elements of costs to arrive at the selling price. These include the direct materials and labor costs, and variable element of the factory overhead and selling and administrative expenses. The unit cost would have been $240 as stated in the question.
These different cost-plus pricing approaches are more suitable for some industries than others. No matter the choice made, it must be noted that they result in different selling prices and can affect the competitiveness of a company.
Lakeside Components wishes to purchase parts in one month for sale in the next. On June 1, the company has 15,000 parts in stock, although sales for June are estimated to total 13,600 parts. Total sales of parts are expected to be 10,500 in July and 12,700 in August. Parts are purchased at a wholesale price of $30. The supplier has a financing arrangement by which Lakeside Components pays 60 percent of the purchase price in the month when the parts are delivered and 40 percent in the following month. Lakeside purchased 14,000 parts in May. Required: a. Estimate purchases (in units) for June and July. b. Estimate the cash required to make purchases in June and July.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory (parts)= 15,000 parts
Sales June= 13,600
Sales July= 10,500
Sales August= 12,700
Parts are purchased at a wholesale price of $30.
Purchasing arrangement:
60 percent on the month of the purchase.
40 percent in the following month.
Lakeside purchased 14,000 parts in May.
A) To calculate the purchase for June and July, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
June= 13,600 - 15,000= -1,400
July= 10,500 - 1,400= 9,100
B) Cash Required:
Purchase from the month
Purchase from the month before
June:
Purchase from the month= 0
Purchase from the month before= (14,000*30)*0.4= 168,000
July:
Purchase from the month= (9,100*30)*0.6= 163,800
Purchase from the month before= 0
A bidding firm, A, is worth $27,000 as a stand-alone entity. A target firm, B, is worth $12,000 as a stand-alone entity, but $18,000 if it is acquired and integrated with Firm A. Several other firms are interested in acquiring Firm B, and Firm B is also worth $18,000 if it is acquired by these other firms. If A acquired B, would this acquisition create value? If yes, how much? How much of this value would the equity holders of A receive? How much would the equity holders of B receive?
Answer and Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
Firm A’s worth as a stand-alone entity = $27,000
Firm B’s worth as a stand-alone entity = $12,000
But if Firm A acquired Firm B it’s increase worth of Firm B at $18000.
Firm A is acquired Firm B, this acquisition create value of
= $18,000 - $12000
= $6000.
With this acquisition equity holders of Firms received $18,000 which is $6,000 more than Firm B stand alone.
A large bakery makes cakes for freezing and subsequent sale. The bakery can produce cakes at the rate of 484 cakes per day. The bakery sets up the cake-production operation and produces until a predetermined number (Q) have been produced. When not producing cakes, the bakery uses its personnel and facilities for producing other bakery items. The setup cost for a production run of cakes is $100. The cost of holding frozen cakes in storage is $9 per cake per year. The annual demand for frozen cakes, which is constant over time, is 54600 cakes. Assume 364 days a year and 52 weeks a year. What is the "daily" demand rate
Answer:
150
Explanation:
The computation of the daily demand rate is shown below:
Daily demand rate = Annual demand for frozen cakes ÷ total number of days in a year
= 54,600 cakes ÷ 364 days
= 150
By dividing the annual demand from the total number of days in a year we can get the daily demand rate and the same is shown above
Maritime Sail Makers manufactures sails for sailboats. The company has the capacity to produce 37 comma 000 sails per year and is currently producing and selling 25 comma 000 sails per year. The following information relates to current production: Sales price per unit $ 185 Variable costs per unit: Manufacturing $ 60 Selling and administrative $ 20 Total fixed costs: Manufacturing $ 700 comma 000 Selling and administrative $ 250 comma 000 If a special pricing order is accepted for 5 comma 700 sails at a sales price of $ 160 per unit, fixed costs remain unchanged, and there are no variable selling and administrative costs for this order, what is the change in operating income?
Answer:
Increase in operating income = $456,000
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
Operating Income Statement
Particular Existing New order Total
Current selling 25,000 5,700 30,700
Selling price per unit $185 $160
Manufacturing variable cost per unit $60 $60
Selling and administrative variable cost per unit $20 $20
Contribution margin per unit(CMPU)= $105 $80
(sale price - variable cost)
Contribution margin $2,625,000 $456,000 $3,081,000
(sale units × CMPU)
Manufacturing fixed cost $700,000 $700,000
Selling and administrative fixed cost $250,000 $250,000
Net operating income $1,675,000 $2,131,000
So, Difference in net income are as follows:
Increase in operating income = $2,131,000 - $1,675,000
= $456,000

The classical dichotomy and the neutrality of money
The classical dichotomy is the separation of real and nominal variables. The following questions test your understanding of this distinction.
Maria spends all of her money on paperback novels and beignets. In 2011 she earned $27.00 per hour, the price of a paperback novel was $9.00, and the price of a beignet was $3.00.
Which of the following give the nominal value of a variable?
1-The price of a beignet is $3.00 in 2011.
2-Maria's wage is $27.00 per hour in 2011.
3-The price of a beignet is 0.33 paperback novels in 2011.
Which of the following give the real value of a variable?
1-The price of a paperback novel is 3 beignets in 2011.
2-Maria's wage is 9 beignets per hour in 2011.
3-The price of a paperback novel is $9.00 in 2011.
Suppose that the Fed sharply increases the money supply between 2011 and 2016. In 2016, Maria's wage has risen to $54.00 per hour. The price of a paperback novel is $18.00 and the price of a beignet is $6.00.
In 2016, the relative price of a paperback novel is _________
Between 2011 and 2016, the nominal value of Maria's wage (increases/decreases/remains the same) and the real value of her wage ____________
Monetary neutrality is the proposition that a change in the money supply ________ nominal variables and ______ real variables.
Answer:
1. Relative price = $3
2. Increases
3. affects , not affect
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
1) The relative price of a paperback novel in 2016 = Maria,s wage ÷ Price of a paperback novel
= $54÷$18
= $3
2) Between 2011 and 2016, the nominal value increases and the real value of Maria's wage remains the same.
3)Monetary neutrality is proposition that the change in the money supply affects the nominal variables but it does not affect the real variables.

As of December 31, 2019, Sheridan Company had $3500 of raw materials inventory. At the beginning of 2019, there was $3000 of materials on hand. During the year, the company purchased $315000 of materials; however, it paid for only $252500. How much inventory was requisitioned for use on jobs during 2019
Answer: $314,500
Explanation:
When calculating how much of a material of any sort was used, the following formula should be used,
= Beginning inventory + Purchases - Ending inventory
This is the same formula largely used to calculate Cost of Goods sold.
Here, the figure to be concerned about is the actual materials used not the ones paid for.
Plugging in figures into the formula then,
= 3,000 + 315,000 - 3,500
= $314,500
Thus $314,500 was the inventory requisitioned for use on jobs during 2019.
A company sells goods to a customer who will pay the full amount in 30 days.How should the company record the sale
Answer:
Credit sales
Debit receivables
Explanation:
This is a sales on account transaction which affect the sales and receivables account.
When this transaction occurs , the company has definitely made a sale which will lead to an inflow of cash in 30 days time, even though the income is recognized immediately according to the accrual method of accounting
To record this , the sales account is credited with the value of the goods sold and the account receivable is debited for with the same amount.
The receivable is a record of payment being owed to the company by its customers.
On January 1, 2021, Legion Company sold $250,000 of 6% ten-year bonds. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds were sold for $163,976, priced to yield 12%. Legion records interest at the effective rate. Legion should report bond interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021, in the amount of: (Round your answer to the nearest dollar amount.)
Answer:
The bond interest expense to be shown in profit or loss as t 30 June 2021
$9,838.56
Explanation:
The bond interest expense is the actual finance cost of using the funds made available by bondholders while the coupon payment is the portion of the finance cost paid to them periodically.
Interest expense=bonds cash proceeds*yield to maturity*6/12
bonds cash proceeds is $163,976
yield to maturity is 12%
interest expense=$163,976*12%*6/12=$9,838.56
Answer:
$9,838.56
Explanation:
Interest Expense using effective interest rate method can determined by multiplying the carrying value of the bond and yield rate of the bond because the bonds issued on the discount has different interest expense than the interest payment made to bond holder.
As the interest is paid semiannually the interest expense will be calculated for only 6 months.
Interest expense=Cash proceeds on issuance of bond x YTM x 6/12
As per given data
Cash proceeds are $163,976
YTM is 12%
Interest expense=$163,976 x 12% x 6/12=$9,838.56

Explanation:
Throughout the macroeconomic equilibrium, the aggregate supply curve becomes equivalent to something like the supply curve, the real GDP seems to be comparable to potential Output (GDP), however, if frictional as well as systemic unemployment seems to be the maximum total poverty throughout the longer term.Consequently, whenever the economy seems to be in macroeconomic equilibrium, the argument which is not accurate would be that the businesses would have excess power.So that Option C is the right answer.
A division is considering the acquisition of a new asset that will cost $2,950,000 and have a cash flow of $740,000 per year for each of the four years of its life. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis with no salvage value. Ignore taxes. Required: a. & b. What is the ROI for each year of the asset's life if the division uses beginning-of-year asset balances and net book value for the computation? What is the residual income each year if the cost of capital is 8 percent?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of ROI for each year of the asset's life and residual income each year is shown below:-
Year Investment base ROI Residual income
1 $2,950,000 8% -$233,500
2 $2,212,500 11% -$233,500
3 $1,475,000 17% -$115,500
4 $737,500 34% -$56,500
ROI = Net income ÷ Total investment × 100
Net Income = Cash flow - Depreciation
Residual income = Net income - (Investment × Cost of capital)
Depreciation = Investment base ÷ 4 years
The return on investment and the residual income can be find out by using the excel spreadsheet. Kindly find it in the attachment

Frederick Company has two service departments (Cafeteria Services & Maintenance). Frederick has two production departments (Assembly Department & Packaging Department.) Frederick uses a step allocation method where Cafeteria Services is allocated to all departments and Maintenance Services is allocated to the production departments. All allocations are based on total employees. Cafeteria Services has costs of $255,000 and Maintenance has costs of $175,000 before any allocations. What amount of Maintenance total cost is allocated to the Packaging Department? (round to closest whole dollar) Employees are: Cafeteria Services 4 Maintenance 5 Assembly Department 10 Packaging Department 10
Answer:
The Total allocation of maintenance cost of packaging department is $87,500
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
The Total Maintenance cost is $175,000 before allocation.
Total employees of in Production Department is= 10 Assembly + 10 Packaging= 20
Hence, Total maintenance cost per employee = $175,000 / 20
Total maintenance cost per employee =$8,750
Therefore, the Total allocation of maintenance cost of packaging department= Total maintenance cost per employee× Employees Packaging Department
Total allocation of maintenance cost of packaging department=$ 8,750 X 10 employees= $87,500

The Journal entry is shown below:-
1. Sales revenue Dr, $28,656 ($121,700 + $287,673) × 7%
To Sales tax payable $28,656
(Being sales tax payable is recorded)
Here we debited the sales revenue as it decreased the revenue while we credited the sales tax payable as it increased the liabilities so that the proper posting could be done
Working note
Credit sales = $130,219 × 100 ÷ 107
= $121,700
Cash sales = $302,810 × 100 ÷ 107
= $287,673

Stone Company changed its method of pricing inventories from FIFO to LIFO. What type of accounting change does this represent? A change in accounting estimate for which the financial statements for prior periods included for comparative purposes should be restated. A change in accounting principle for which the financial statements for prior periods included for comparative purposes should be presented as previously reported. A change in accounting estimate for which the financial statements for prior periods included for comparative purposes should be presented as previously reported. A change in accounting principle for which the financial statements for prior periods included for comparative purposes should be restated.
Answer:
A change in accounting principle for which the financial statements for prior periods included for comparative purposes should be presented as previously reported.
Explanation:
Since the accounting method is being changed from FIFO to LIFO, any adjusting of prior year balances would be impractical. If the change is from LIFO to FIFO, then it makes more sense to adjust prior year balances. By impractical, it means that any changes would be too difficult and expensive to determine, and the value of the change is insignificant (materiality principle).
Generally US GAAP rules require that changes from FIFO to LIFO be disclosed in the footnotes only.
Check all true statements regarding CMBS:
a.CMBS have less exposure to prepayment risk than RMBS
b.Loans in a CMBS deal are recourse loans The multifamily/apartment CRE sector never uses CMBS for financing as it relies on RMBS
c.CMBS are the main source of financing for commercial real estate loans
d.The number of commercial mortgages in a CMBS deal are usually lower than the number of residential mortgage in a RMBS deal
Answer: A and D only
Explanation:
CMBS Loan are also referred to as a Conduit Loan, this is a type of real estate loan usually commercial, which is secured by a first-position mortgage on a commercial property. These loans are usually packaged, and sold by a Conduit Lender, commercial banks, investment banks, and syndicates of banks.
Loans in a CMBS are always bigger so they are less in a CMBS deal. Sometimes it’s onlyone loan in a Single Asset (SA) CMBS deal
Prepayments are discouraged in CMBS through defeasance,prepayment penalties or yield maintenance fees.
Answer:
a.CMBS have less exposure to prepayment risk than RMBS
d. The number of commercial mortgages in a CMBS deal are usually lower than the number of residential mortgage in a RMBS deal
Explanation:
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS) as the name implies are mortgage backed securities that are secured with commercial mortgages while Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (RMBS) are mortgage backed securities secured by residential property.
a) CMBS are based on mortgages which usually have a fixed term contract in place meaning that prepayment is less of a thing with CMBS than with RMBS so the former does indeed have a less exposure to prepayment risk than the latter.
d) This is indeed true because both packages have to look appealing to investors but can only use different amounts to reach the minimum threshold. This is because Commercial Mortgages pay more than Residential Mortgages so more RMBS have to be pulled together to form an attractive investment as opposed to CMBS. This is why the number in CMBS are usually less than that of RMBS.
