Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
The gross income from rent = $7,000
Rental expenses = $4,900
Net income from rent = $2,100
b) Rental expenses are business expenses. They are not part of itemized deductions. They are usually subtracted before arriving at the adjusted gross income (AGI) from which itemized deductions are then made. Therefore, there is no requirement to itemize the rental expenses.
The Williams Supply Company sells for $50 one product that it purchases for $20. Budgeted sales in total dollars for the year are $3,000,000. The sales information needed for preparing the July budget follows:
Month Sales Revenue

Merchandise inventory 47,200
Accounts receivable (sales) 84,530
Accounts payable (purchases) 47,200
The company pays for one-half of its purchases in the month of purchase and the remainder in the following month. End-of-month inventory must be 40% of the budgeted sales in units for the next month. A 2% cash discount on sales is allowed if payment is made during the month of sale. Experience indicates that 60% of the billings will be collected during the month of sale, 25% in the following month, 12% in the second following month, and 3% will be uncollectible. Total budgeted selling and administrative expenses (excluding bad debts) for the fiscal year are estimated at $1,200,000, of which three-fourths is fixed expense (inclusive of a $36,000 annual depreciation charge). Fixed expenses are incurred evenly during the year. The other selling and administrative expenses vary with sales. Expenses are paid during the month incurred.

If a company purchases equipment costing $5,100 on credit, the effect on the accounting equation would be:
Answer:
assets increase $5,100 and liabilities increase $5,100
Explanation:
Assets are the items that a company owns which can provide future economic benefit.
Liabilities are future sacrifices of economic benefits that an entity is obliged to make to other entities as a result of past transactions or other past events, hence Liabilities are what a person or company owe other parties.
If a company purchases equipment costing $5,100 on credit, the assets of the company will increase by $5100 as a result of acquiring an equipment. Also, the liability will increase by $5100 as a result of debt owed.

You own a stock portfolio invested 32 percent in Stock Q, 22 percent in Stock R, 19 percent in Stock S, and 27 percent in Stock T. The betas for these four stocks are 1.63, 1.35, 2.56, and 0.68, respectively. What is the portfolio beta? Enter the answer with 4 decimals (e.g. 1.1234)
Answer:
Beta= 1.4886
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
You own a stock portfolio invested 32 percent in Stock Q, 22 percent in Stock R, 19 percent in Stock S, and 27 percent in Stock T.
The betas for these four stocks are 1.63, 1.35, 2.56, and 0.68, respectively.
To calculate the portfolio beta, we need to use the following formula:
Beta= (proportion of investment A*beta A) + (proportion of investment B*beta B)
Beta= (0.32*1.63) + (0.22*1.35) + (0.19*2.56) + (0.27*0.68)
Beta= 1.4886
XYZ shop has a favorite model that has annual sales of 145. The cost to place an order to replenish inventory is $25 per order, and annual inventory holding cost per unit is $20. Assume the store is open 350 days per year. a. What is the optimal order size
Answer:
EOQ= 19 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Demand= 145 units
Order cost= $25 per order
Holding cost= $20.
To calculate the optimal order quantity, we need to use the economic order quantity method:
Economic order quantity (EOQ)= √[(2*D*S)/H]
D= Demand in units
S= Order cost
H= Holding cost
EOQ= √[(2*145*25) / 20]
EOQ= √362.5
EOQ= 19 units

A ______ strategy aims at securing a competitive advantage by serving buyers in the target market niche at a lower cost and lower price than rivals. Multiple choice question. focused low-cost overall low-cost resource-based cost best-cost
Answer:
focused low-cost
Explanation:
Competitive advantage can be defined as conditions, factors or circumstances that allow a business firm (organization) to manufacture finished goods or services better and perhaps cheaper than other (rival) firms in the same industry. Thus, it's responsible for putting a business firm in a superior or more favorable position than rival firms.
This ultimately implies that, a competitive advantage has a significant impact on a business because it increases its level of sales, revenue generation and profit margin when compared to rival firms in the same industry.
A focused low-cost strategy is a strategic business model that's typically focused on a narrow or small customer base (segment) while providing low-cost goods and services to the customers. Thus, it is a business strategy that involves lowering the price of goods and services in order to generate more revenue and gain a competitive advantage over competitors or rivals in the same industry.
Hence, a focused low-cost strategy is typically aimed at securing a competitive advantage by means of serving buyers or consumers in the target market niche at a lower cost and lower price than rivals in the same industry.
Pujols Lumber Yard has a current accounts receivable balance of $365,061. Credit sales for the year just ended were $6,842,109. How long did it take on average for credit customers to pay off their accounts during the past year? (Enter the answer with 2 decimal places (e.g. 23.45)
Answer:
19.48 days
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How long did it take on average for credit customers to pay off their accounts during the past year
First step is to determine the receivables turnover for the company using this formula
Receivables turnover = Credit sales / Receivables
Let plug in the formula
Receivables turnover = $6,842,109 / $365,061
Receivables turnover = 18.74 times
Now let determine l the day’s sales in receivables using this formula

When you ask the controller to look into federal reimbursements to see if he can find the cause of the reduction, how might he respond? (Select all that apply) Federal reimbursements are not part of the revenue cycle, the problem lies in revenue. Since federal reimbursements are part of the revenue cycle, we might find the problem there. The problem lies in revenue so it’s possible that charges are not being generated. The problem lies in revenue so there could be a problem in claims.
Answer:
Federal reimbursements are not part of the revenue cycle, the problem lies in revenue.
The problem lies in revenue so its possible that charges are not being generated.
Explanation:
Federal reimbursements are not revenue. These reimbursements are treated separately other than revenue. The charges are not generated because federal funds are not part of revenue cycle.
A Consumer Expenditure Survey in the city of Firestorm shows that people buy only firecrackers and bandages. s AConsumer Expenditure Survey in 2016 shows that the average household spent $216 on firecrackers and $18 on bandages. In 2016, the reference base year, the price of a firecracker was $6, and the price of bandages was $2 a pack. In the current year, 2017, firecrackers are $5 each and bandages are $3 a pack Calculate the CPI market basket and the percentage of a household's budget spent on firecrackers in the base year.
The CPI market basket is nothing ______ and nothing _______ packs of bandages dollars worth of bandages . The percentage of a household's budget spent on firecrackers in the base year is_______ percent.
Answer: 92.3%
Explanation:
The total budget which is the sum of all the expenditure by the household will be the addition of the $216 spent on firecrackers and $18 on bandages. This will be:
= $216 + $18
= $234
Price of a firecracker = $6
Price of bandages = $2 a pack
Number of firecrackers = $216/$6 = 36
Number of bandages = $18/$2 = 9
CPI market basket is 36 firecrackers and 9 bandages.
Therefore, the percentage of a household's budget spent on firecrackers in the base year will be:
= Expenditures on firecrackers/Total expenditure
= $216 / $234
= 92.3%
Maxim Corp. has provided the following information about one of its products:Date Transaction Number of Units Cost per Unit1/1 Beginning Inventory 285 $ 157 6/5 Purchase 485 $ 177 11/10 Purchase 185 $ 217 During the year, Maxim sold 570 units.What is cost of goods sold using the average cost method? (Do not round intermediate computations.)
Answer:
$101,904.6
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of goods sold using the average cost method is shown below:
Beginnig Inventory 285 at $157 = $44,745
Purchases 485 at $177 = $85,845
Purchases 185 at $217 = $40,145
Total cost = $170,735
Now
Total number of units is
= 285 + 485 + 185
= 955
Now
Average Cost per unit is
= $170,735 ÷ 955
=$ 178.78
And, finally
Cost of goods Sold is
= 570 × $178.78
= $101,904.6

XYZ Corporation manufactures orange safety suits for road workers. The following information relates to the corporation's purchases and use of material for April: Material purchased 12,000 yards Material used in production 10,000 yards Standard material allowed for suits produced 10,800 yards The company's materials price variance for April was $3,000 Favorable. Its materials quantity variance for April was $5,000 Favorable. What does the company use as a standard price per yard of material for its safety suits
Answer:
$6.25 per yard
Explanation:
The computation of the standard price per yard of material for its safety suits is shown below:
Material quantity variance = Standard Price × (Actual quantity - Standard quantity)
-$5,000 = Standard price × (10,000 - 10,800)
Standard price = -$5,000 ÷ (-800)
= $6.25 per yard
Hence, the standard price per yard of material for its safety suits is $6.25 per yard
g A company's flexible budget for 15,000 units of production showed sales, $60,000; variable costs, $22,500; and fixed costs, $17,000. The sales expected if the company produces and sells 19,000 units is (Do not round intermediate calculations):
Answer:
$76,000
Explanation:
The first step is to find the sales price per unit
= 60,000/15,000
= $4
Therefore the sales expected from the company can be calculated as follow
= 4×19,000
= 76,000
Hence the expected sales is $76,000
Frank Corporation manufactures a single product that has a selling price of $25.00 per unit. Fixed expenses total $64,000 per year, and the company must sell 8,000 units to break even. If the company has a target profit of $19,000, sales in units must be:________.a. 9,648b. 8,760c. 10,375d. 10,560
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 10,375
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $25
Fixed cost= $64,000
Break-even point in units= 8,000
First, we need to determine the unitary contribution margin:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
8,000 = 64,000 / contribution margin per unit
contribution margin per unit8,000= 64,000
contribution margin per unit= 64,000 / 8,000
contribution margin per unit= $8
Now, the number of units to be sold to make a profit of $19,000:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (64,000 + 19,000) / 8
Break-even point in units= 10,375

You are planning to save for retirement over the next 25 years. To do this, you will invest $1,000 a month in a stock account and $700 a month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 9 percent, and the bond account will pay 6 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with a return of 7 percent. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 20-year withdrawal period
Answer:
Monthly withdraw= $12,452.6
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total accumulated at the moment of retirement. We will use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
Stock:
Monthly investment= $1,000
Interest rate= 0.09/12= 0.0075
Number of periods= 25*12= 300 months
FV= {1,000*[(1.0075^300) - 1]} / 0.0075
FV= $1,121,121.94
Bond:
Monthly investment= $700
Interest rate= 0.06/12= 0.005
Number of periods= 25*12= 300 months
FV= {700*[(1.005^300) - 1]} / 0.005
FV= 485,095.77
Total FV= 1,121,121.94 + 485,095.77
Total FV= $1,606,217.71
Now, the annual withdrawal:
Interest rate= 0.07/12= 0.005833
Number of months= 12*20= 240
Monthly withdraw= (FV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]
Monthly withdraw= (1,606,217.71*0.005833) / [1 - (1.005833^-240)]
Monthly withdraw= $12,452.6

Pasadena Candle Inc. projected sales of 800,000 candles for January. The estimated January 1 inventory is 35,000 units, and the desired January 31 inventory is 20,000 units. What is the budgeted production (in units) for January?
Answer:
785,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the budgeted production (in units) for January
BUDGETED PRODUCTION (in units) FOR JANUARY
Expected units to be sold 800000
Add Desired ending inventory, Dec 31 20000
Total units available 820000
(800,000+20,000)
Less Estimated beginning inventory, Jan 1 (35000)
Total units to be produced 785000
(820,000-35,000)
Therefore the budgeted production (in units) for January is 785,000
The text defines management as “The art of getting things done through the efforts of other people.” Put yourself in the shoes of a manager and explain what this definition means in the context of a company operation. You can use the example of any company (large or small) and any good or service.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although you did not attach the text, we can comment on the quote.
"The art of getting things done through the efforts of other people.”
This quote means that good managers motivate and positively influence employees to get the job done. Managers coordinate and monitor the work of the employees. Managers first plan, then establish the goals to be accomplished and then direct the work effort to be productive.
If I were a manager of a company, I definitely try to emulate what the quote says. For instance, the manager of a recreational and sports club. I would do everything to establish clear, specific, and attainable goals so my employees could understand them. Then I describe the role and responsibilities of each employee so they can do their job without any doubts. And of course, I would delegate so they can do their jobs happily. No unnescesary intromissions. The objective would be to offer the best service possible to our clients.
A company is interested in developing a quarterly aggregate production plan but they are not sure if a level strategy with backorders or a chase strategy would be better. They have the following information available regarding their production operation: Hiring Cost (per unit increase) $40 Firing (per unit decrease) $80 Inventory Cost (per unit) $40 Stockout (per unit) $150 Production (Labor) cost (per unit) $30 Subcontracting cost (per unit) $60 Previous quarter's production 1300 Previous quarter's ending inventory 0 Quarter forecasts are 4000, 3000, 4000 and 5000, respectively. Suppose that you want to use a level plan with backorders (one that produces at the average demand over the four quarters). What is the ending inventory in Quarter 2
Answer:
1000 units
Explanation:
Average demand over the next 4 quarters = (4000 + 3000 + 4000 + 5000) / 4
Average demand over the next 4 quarters = 16000 / 4
Average demand over the next 4 quarters = 4000
That is, as per the Level plan, 4000 units shall be produced in each of the next 4 quarters.
Quarter 1
Beginning Inventory = 0
Production = 4000
Demand = 4000
Ending Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Production) - Demand
Ending Inventory = (0 + 4000) - 4000
Ending Inventory = 4000 - 4000
Ending Inventory = 0 units
Quarter 2
Beginning Inventory = 0
Production = 4000
Demand = 3000
Ending Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Production) - Demand
Ending Inventory = (0 + 4000) - 3000
Ending Inventory = 4000 - 3000
Ending Inventory = 1000 units

A company has 1000000 shares outstanding trading at $15 a piece. Managers believe that the discount rate appropriate for the risk borne is 15% and total cash flows, expected to be $1 million next year, will rise by 5% per year indefinitely. Discuss a strategy that is beneficial to the current shareholders.
Answer:
Explanation:
Knowing the value of the equity and establishing the intrinsic worth of the share may help you develop a perfect strategy that will benefit the current shareholders.
Value of the equity = Cashflow÷(discount rate - growth rate)
= $1,000,000 ÷ (15%-5%)
= $1,000,000 ÷ (10%)
= $10,000,000
Intrinsic value per share = Value of the equity ÷ Shares outstanding
= $10,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000
= $10
For the share, The intrinsic value = $10
However, since the current trading share price is $15, then we can posit that the share price is over-valued.
As a result, the perfect strategy that will be beneficial to the shareholders is for the current shareholders to sell the shares (short selling at a high price and purchasing at a low price).
