Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 11.31%

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the price of a stock at the end of each of the past three years has been $14, $12, and $11 with $11 being the latest price and that the stock pays an annual dividend of $1 per share.

The average annual capital gain for the past two years will be:

= (-$2/$14) + ($-1/$12)/2

= 11.31%

Cole Co. began constructing a building for its own use in January 20X3. During 20X3, Cole incurred interest of $50,000 on specific construction debt, and $20,000 on other borrowings. Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 20X3 was $40,000. What amount of interest cost should Cole capitalize

Answers

Answer: $40,000

Explanation:

When capitalizing Interest for a PPE, accounting procedure is that one looks at the actual interests incurred vs the interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the PPE and then pick the lower of the two for capitalization.

The actual interest incurred is;

= 50,000 + 20,000

= $70,000

The Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 20X3 = $40,000. This is the lower one and so will be the amount capitalized.

Answers

Answer:

Shoe-leather Costs.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Kyoko owns and operates a store in a country experiencing a high rate of inflation. In order to prevent the value of money in her cash register from falling too quickly, Kyoko sends an employee to the bank four times per day to make deposits in an interest-bearing account that protects the store's revenues from the effects of inflation. This is an example of the shoe-leather costs of inflation.

Inflation can be defined as the persistent rise in the price of goods and services in an economy. Generally, inflation usually causes the value of money to fall and as a result, it imposes more cost on an economy.

A Shoe-leather costs can be defined as the costs associated with time, energy and effort people expend to mitigate the effect of high inflation on the depreciative purchasing power of money by frequently visiting the bank in order to minimize inflation tax they pay on holding cash.

Figuratively speaking, in order to protect the value of money or assets, some people wear out the sole of their shoes by going to financial institutions more frequently to make deposits.

Hence, Kyoko is practicing a shoe-leather cost of inflation so as to protect the store's revenues from the effects of inflation.

Answer:

Accounting rate of return =  24.10%

Explanation:

The accounting rate of return is the average annual income expressed as a percentage of the average investment.  

The simple rate of return can be calculated using the two formula below:  

Accounting rate of return  

= Annual operating income/Average investment × 100  

Average investment = (Initial cost + scrap value)/2  

Average profit = Total profit over investment period / Number of years

Total profit = 360,000 + 360,000 + 600,000 +1,080,000, + 1,200,000 + 2,520,000  + 1,444,000 =  7,564,000.00  

Average annual profit = 7,564,000/7 = 1,080,571.43  

Average Investment  = 9,000,000/2= 4500000

Accounting rate of return = 1,080,571.43  /4,500,000 × 100 = 24.10%

Accounting rate of return =  24.10%

Conner Manufacturing has two major divisions. Management wants to compare their relative performance. Information related to the two divisions is as follows:

Division 1:

Expenses: $150,000
Asset investment: $950,000

Division 2:

Sales: $45,000
Expenses: $35,000
Asset investment: $200,000

Based on ROI, which division is more profitable?

a. Division 1
b. Both divisions have the same ROI ratio
c. Division 2

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Division 1 (a.)

Explanation:

Return on investment (ROI) is a financial ratio used to calculate the benefit earned on an investment cost.

Mathematically, it is represented as:

[tex]ROI = \frac{Net\ Income}{original\ cost\ of\ investment} \times 100[/tex]

where:

Net income = Sales - expenses

Original cost of investment = asset invested

Now let us calculate the ROI for each division:

Division 1 :

Net income = Sales - Expenses = 200,000 - 150,000 = $50,000

Asset investment = $950,000

[tex]ROI = \frac{50,000}{950,000} \times 100\ \\\\ROI = 5.26\%[/tex]

Division 2:

Net income = 45,000 - 35,000 =  $10,000

Asset investment = $200,000

[tex]ROI = \frac{10,000}{200,000} \times 100\\\\= ROI = 0.05\ \times\ 100\ = 5\%[/tex]

Therefore, based on the ROI for both divisions, Division 1 has a greater ROI (5.26%) than Division 2 (5%) hence, Division 1 is more profitable.

2012                    $7,175                            $4,365

2013                    $8,052                           $5,140

2014                    $8,268                           $5,370

   

a)

gross profit ratio:

2012 = ($7,175 - $4,365) / $7,175 = 39.16%

2013 = ($8,052 - $5,140) / $8,052 = 36.16%

2014 = ($8,268 - $5,370) / $8,268 = 35.05%

b)

since the gross profit margin ratio is decreasing every year, we can assume that it will keep decreasing in 2015. Using linear regression, the slope is -0.02055. So the estimated gross profit margin ratio for 2015 = 34.33%

estimated cogs (first four months of 2015) = $527 billion x (1 - 34.33%) = $346.08 billion

estimated gross profit (first four months of 2015) = $527 billion x 34.33% = $180.92 billion

Answers

Answer:

(a) A note payable for $100,000 due in 2 years.  - Noncurrent liability

Non-current liabilities are obligations of payments by the company that extend for over a year. This note payable is due in 2 years and so is a Non-current liability.

(b) A 10-year mortgage payable of $200,000 payable in ten $20,000 annual payments.  - Noncurrent liability

This obligation also extends for over a year thereby satisfying the definition of a Non-current liability

(c) Interest payable of $15,000 on the mortgage.  - Current liability

Current Liabilities being the opposite of Non-current liabilities are obligations that are due within a year. The $15,000 interest payment is the amount due for the year and so is a Current Liability.

(d) Accounts payable of $60,000.  - Current liability

Accounts Payable are payable within the year and as such are current liabilities.

a. $100,000 decrease
b. $118,000 increase
c. $18,000 increase
d. $82,000 decrease

Answers

Answer: c. $18,000 increase

Explanation:

Department margin was $100,000 in September.

October Margin = Sales - Variable Costs - Traceable Fixed Costs

= (2,000 *( 210 - 25 - 80 - 15) ) - 62,000

= (2,000 * 90) - 62,000

= $118,000

= October Margin - September Margin

= 118,000 - 100,000

= $18,000 increase

Cole Co. began constructing a building for its own use in January 2016. During 2016, Cole incurred interest of $50,000 on specific construction debt, and $20,000 on other borrowings. Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 2016 was $40,000. What amount of interest should Cole capitalize?

Answers

Answer:

$40,000

Explanation:

The accounting procedure involved in the above is that one picks the lower between the actual interest incurred and the interest computed on the weighted average amount of accumulated expenditures for PPE.

The actual interest incurred on specific construction debt and other borrowings

= $50,000 + $20,000

= $70,000

Since the interest computed on the weighted average amount of accumulated expenditure for the building is $40,000 , the lower between the actual interest incurred and interest on weighted average amount of accumulated expenditure is $40,000, hence will be the capitalized amount.

Net Operating Income               $25,000

Instructions: (As given).

Answer:

Crossfire Company

1. Computation of the companywide break-even point in dollar sales:

Break-even point in dollar sales

= Sales = Total costs

Sales = $816,000

Total costs = Variable costs + Traceable fixed costs

= $675,000 + $141,000

= $816,000

2. Computation of the break-even point in dollar sales for the East region:

Break-even point in dollar sales

= Sales = Total costs

= $530,000

Total costs = $530,000 ($480,000 + 50,000)

3. Computation of the break-even point in dollar sales for the West region:

Break-even point in dollar sales

= Sales = Total costs

= $286,000

Total costs = $286,000 ($195,000 + 91,000)

4. A new segmented income statement based on the break-even dollar sales that are computed in requirements 2 and 3:

                                                Total Company         East              West

Sales                                             $816,000        $530,000       $286,000

Variable Expenses                        675,000           480,000          195,000

Contribution margin                       141,000             50,000          105,000

Traceable Fixed Expenses            141,000             50,000            91,000

Segment Margin                                $0                     $0                   $0

Common Fixed Expenses            59,000

Net Operating Income/(loss)    ($59,000)

Crossfire's net operating income (loss) in the new segmented income statement is: $59,000

5. I think that Crossfire should allocate the common fixed expenses to the East and West regions when computing the break-even points for each region.

This ensures that Crossfire does not run into net operating loss, company-wide.  The segmented sales revenues for the regions can be used to allocate the common fixed expenses.  Other suitable bases are traceable fixed expense, number of sales and administrative staff, or activity cost pools, using activity-based costing technique.

Explanation:

a) Break-even point in sales dollars is the sales point at which Crossfire's sales revenue will be equal to the total costs.  At this point, Crossfire will not make any profit or incur any loss.

Cost allocated to land=$605,520

Cost allocated to building=$1,482,480

Explanation:

Calculation for the amount that Schwartzkopf should report the land and the building at the end of the year

A. Calculation for Cost allocated to land

Using this formula

Cost allocated to land=Fair value of land/

Fair value of building and land×Cost

Let plug in the formula

Cost allocated to land=$826,355/($2,023,145+$826,355)×$2,088,000

Cost allocated to land=$826,355/$2,849,500×$2,088,000

Cost allocated to land=0.29×$2,088,000

Cost allocated to land=$605,520

Therefore the Cost allocated to land will be $605,520

B. Calculation for Cost allocated to building

Using this formula

Cost allocated to building=Fair value of land/

Fair value of building and land×Cost

Let plug in the formula

Cost allocated to building=$2,023,145/$2,023,145+$826,355)×$2,088,000

Cost allocated to building=$2,023,145/$2,849,500×$2,088,000

Cost allocated to building=0.71×$2,088,000

Cost allocated to building=$1,482,480

Therefore Cost allocated to building will be $1,482,480

The following information pertains to the​ company's manufacturing overhead​ data: Budgeted output units 51,000 units Budgeted machine−hours 10,200 hours Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead costs for 51,000 units $387,600 Actual output units produced 35,750 units Actual machine−hours used 14,300 hours Actual variable manufacturing overhead costs $328,900 What is the budgeted variable overhead cost rate per output​ unit?

Answers

Answer:

$7.60 per unit of output

Explanation:

Budgeted output units 51,000 units

Budgeted machine−hours 10,200 hours

Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead costs for 51,000 units $387,600

budgeted variable overhead cost per unit of output = $387,600 / 51,000 units = $7.60 per unit of output

In this case, the applied variable overhead rate = 35,750 units x $7.60 = $271,700, which would have been under-applied since the actual variable overhead costs were much higher, $328,900.

Answer:

PI for the first project = 1 + ($5,673.93 / 87,000) = 1.065

PI for the second project = 1 + ($5,561.23 / $55,000) = 1.101

b. the second project should be chosen because the PI is higher

NPV for 1 = $5,673.93

NPV for 2 =   $5,561.23

Explanation:

profitability index  = 1 + (NPV / Initial investment)

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

for the first project

Cash flow in year 0 = –$87,000

Cash flow in year 1 = 36,900

Cash flow in year 2 = 47,000

Cash flow in year 3 =  27,000

I = 10%

NPV = $5,673.93

for the second project

Cash flow in year 0 = –$55,000

Cash flow in year 1 = 11,700

Cash flow in year 2 =  34,500

Cash flow in year 3 = 28,500

Since the 1980s and 1990s, segmentation in global financial markets has been reduced. As a result of this, the correlation among securities markets has increased, thereby reducing, but not eliminating, the benefits of international portfolio diversification. True or Worse

Answers

Answer: True

Explanation:

With the on-going drive towards Globalization, companies took advantage to raise more capital by listing across various stock exchanges in the world. The result of this became that the securities market became more correlated.

This had the advantage of granting many companies enough capital that they became Multinational companies but it had the disadvantage of reducing the benefits of international portfolio diversification because the companies would be able to influence the movement of stock across the nations that they are listed in. Where before you could trade in Japan if there were losses in the NYSE, with a company being on both and suffering, both exchanges would feel it.

One Step, Inc., is trying to determine its cost of debt. The firm has a debt issue outstanding with 27 years to maturity that is quoted at 105 percent of face value. The issue makes semiannual payments and has a coupon rate of 4 percent.


Requried:

a. What is the company's pretax cost of debt?

b. If the tax rate is 23 percent, what is the aftertax cost of debt?

Answers

Answer:

Before tax cost of debt=3.72%

After-tax cost of debt =2.87 %

Explanation:

The yield to maturity to Maturity van be worked out using the formula below:

YM =( C + F-P/n) ÷ ( 1/2× (F+P))

C- annual coupon,  

F- face value ,

P- current price,  

n- number of years to maturity

YM - Yield to maturity

DATA

C- 4%× 100 = 4, P- 105, F- 100

AYM = 4 + (100-105)/27 ÷ 1/2× (100+105)

=0.0372 ×  100= 3.72%

Yield to maturity =3.72%

Before tax cost of debt = Yield to maturity

Before tax cost of debt=3.72%

After tax cost of debt =Before tax cost of debt × (1-T)

Before tax cost of debt = 3.72%

Tax rate = 23%

After-tax cost of debt = 3.72%× (1-0.23) =2.87 %

After-tax cost of debt =2.87 %

Assuming that the standard fixed overhead rate is based on full capacity, the cost of available but unused productive capacity is indicated by the a.fixed factory overhead volume variance b.direct labor rate variance c.variable factory overhead controllable variance d.direct labor time variance

Answers

Answer: a.fixed factory overhead volume variance.

Explanation:

Fixed overhead costs are the costs that are incurred by an organization that doesn't change even when the lre is a change in the volume of production activity. The fixed overhead costs are vital in order for the effective operation of the company.

When the standard fixed overhead rate is based on full capacity, the cost of available but unused productive capacity is indicated by the a.fixed factory overhead volume variance.

Variance is the data analysis tool that helps in measuring the gap between the actual and budgeted or the standard data. The standards are set based on past records and performances. There are various types of variances such as cost variance, efficiency variance, rate variance, volume variance, and many more.

The cost of available but unused productivity capacity is indicated by fixed factory overhead volume variance.

When the standard fixed overhead rate or can be said as the fixed overhead cost is constant and remains at full capacity irrespective of the changes in the volume of production activity.

In this case, the cost of productive capacity can be determined by using the fixed factory overhead volume variance. This is because it determines the difference between the fixed cost based upon the budgets and the production capacity.

Break-Even Sales and Sales to Realize Income from OperationsFor the current year ended October 31, Friedman Company expects fixed costs of $14,300,000, a unit variable cost of $250, and a unit selling price of $380.a. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units).unitsb. Compute the sales (units) required to realize income from operations of $2,405,000.units

Answers

Answer:

a. 110,000 units

b. 128,500 units

Explanation:

a. Compute the anticipated break even sales in unit

Break even point in unit = Total fixed cost / Contribution margin

Total fixed cost = $14,300,000

Contribution margin per unit = Unit selling price - Unit variable cost

= $380 - $250

= $130

Break even point in units = $14,300,000 / $130

= 110,000 units

b. Compute sales (units) required to realize income from operations of $2,405,000

Break even point + expected profits = (total fixed costs + expected profits) / Contribution margin

° total fixed cost + expected profits

= $14,300,000 + $2,405,000

= $16,705,000

°contribution margin per unit

= $380 - $250

= $130

Break even point + expected profits in unit

= $16,705,000 / $130

= 128,500 units

Jason has a loan that requires a single payment of $6,000 at the end of 3 years. The loan's interest rate is 10%, compounded semiannually. How much did Jason borrow? (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

Answers

Answer:

Jason borrowed $4,4,77.29

Explanation:

In order to calculate this, let we will use the formula for the future value on an invested amount, semiannually, yielding interest at a certain interest rate. This is done as follows:

[tex]FV\ =\ PV(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{(n\times t)}[/tex]

where:

FV =  future value = $6,000 (loan repayment)

PV = present value = amount borrowed = ??

r = interest rate = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

n = number of compounding periods per year = 2

t = time = 3 years

[tex]6,000\ =\ PV(1+\frac{0.1}{2} )^{(2\times 3)}\\6,000\ =\ PV(1+ 0.05)^{6}\\6,000\ =\ PV(1.05)^{6}\\6,000\ =\ PV (1.340096)\\diving\ both\ sides\ by\ 1.340096\\PV = \frac{6,000}{1.340096} \\PV = \$4,477.29[/tex]

Therefore, Jason borrowed $4,4,77.29
