Answer:
It is more convenient to continue processing. Income will increase by $37,900
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
7,700 units of product X15 are produced from each ton of clypton.
The units can either be sold at the split-off point for $13 each or processed further at a total cost of $8,300 and then sold for $19 each.
Sell now:
Effect on income= 7,700*13= 100,100
Continue processing:
Effect on income= 7,700*19 - 8,300= 138,000
It is more convenient to continue processing. Income will increase by $37,900
Answer:
Financial advantage $33,700
Explanation:
$
Sales at the split-off point ($13 × 7,000) 91,000
Sales after the split off point ($19 × 7,000) 133,000
Additional sales revenue 42,000
Further processing cost (8,300)
Financial advantage 33,700
Financial advantage $33,700
The joint costs of $80,000 is irrelevant for this decision. Whether or not the product is processed further they had already been incurred.

Haylock Inc. bases its manufacturing overhead budget on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 7,800 direct labor-hours will be required in August. The variable overhead rate is $1.20 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $100,560 per month, which includes depreciation of $8,790. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The August cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:
Answer:
Total cash= $101,130
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated direct labor hours= 7,800
The variable overhead rate is $1.20 per direct labor-hour.
The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $100,560 per month, which includes depreciation of $8,790.
We need to deduct the depreciation expense because it is not a cash disbursement.
Cash disbursement:
Variable overhead= 7,800*1.2= $9,360
Fixed overhead= (100,560 - 8,790)= $91,770
Total cash= $101,130
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.

Which of the following statements generates the greatest amount of disagreement among economists? a. Increases in the money supply shift aggregate demand to the right. b. In the long run, increases in the money supply increase prices, but not output. c. Recessions are associated with decreases in consumption, investment, and employment. d. Government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy.
Answer:
d. Government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy.
Explanation:
Suggesting that the government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy generates the greatest amount of disagreement among economists because the process of implementing fiscal policy usually experiences lag as it is being slowed down by the political system (bureaucracy) of checks and balances.
Fiscal policy is the use of government expenditures, revenues and tax policies to influence macroeconomic conditions such as employment, inflation and Aggregate Demand (ADl in a specific country.
The benefits of fiscal policy is that investments, savings and growth is usually influenced in the long-run while it basically influences aggregate demand for goods and services in the short-run.
Johnson Enterprises uses a computer to handle its sales invoices.

Management is considering updating its computer with a faster model that would eliminate all of the overtime processing.
Current Machine New Machine
Original purchase cost $15,300 $25,100
Accumulated depreciation $6,200 ------
Estimated annual operating costs $24,800 $19,800
Remaining useful life 5 years 5 years
If sold now, the current machine would have a salvage value of $10,800. If operated for the remainder of its useful life, the current machine would have zero salvage value. The new machine is expected to have zero salvage value after 5 years.
Should the current machine be replaced?
Answer:
The current machine should be replaced. It costs more plus the overhead costs to maintain the current machine than it would cost to maintain the new machine.
The analysis is as follows:
Explanation:
1. Cost Analysis of Current Machine:
Book value of equipment = $9,100 ($15,300 - $6,200)
Annual Operating Costs for 5 years = $124,000 ($24,800 x 5)
Total cost = $133,100 ($9,100 + $124,000)
2. Cost Analysis for New Machine:
Purchase cost = $25,100
Annual operating costs for 5 years = $99,000 ($19,800 x 5)
Total cost for 5 years = $124,100 ($25,100 + $99,000)
Since both machines have no salvage value at the end of 5 years, it makes sense to purchase the new machine with a cost saving of $9,000 ($133,100 - $124,100) plus the overtime cost that will be eliminated.
The corporate charter of Andromeda Co. authorized the issuance of 21 million, $1 par common shares. During 2021, its first year of operations, Andromeda had the following transactions: January 1 sold 6 million shares at $26 per share June 3 purchased 13 million shares of treasury stock at $29 per share December 28 sold the 4 million shares of treasury stock at $31 per share What amount should Andromeda report as additional paid-in capital in its December 31, 2021, balance sheet
Answer:
$158 million
Explanation:
The computation of total additional paid in capital is shown below:-
Paid in capital in excess of par value-Common Stock = ($26 - 1) × 6 million
= 25 × 6 million
= $150 million
Paid in capital from sale of treasury Stock = ($31 - $29) × 4 million
= $8 million
Total additional paid in capital = Paid in capital in excess of par value-Common Stock + Paid in capital from sale of treasury Stock
= $150 million + $8 million
= $158 million
So, for computing the total additional paid in capital we simply applied the above formula.
Financial statement data for the years ended December 31 for Parker Corporation are as follows: Current Year Prior Year Sales $2,595,600 $2,409,498 Fixed assets (net): Beginning of year $901,070 $820,000 End of year 829,330 901,070 a. Determine the fixed asset turnover ratio for the current and prior years. Round your answers to one decimal place. Current Year: Prior Year: b. Does the change in fixed asset turnover ratio from the prior year to the current year indicate a favorable or unfavorable trend
Answer:
we need to calculate the Average Fixed assets for both the periods.
Average Fixed Assets = (Fixed Assets at the beginning + Fixed assets at the ending period)/2
Current Year = ($901070+829330)/2
= 1730400/2
=$865200
Prior Year = $820000+901070
= 1721070/2
= $860535
Fixed Assets Turnover = Sales/Average Fixed Assets
Current year = $2595600/865200
= 3
Prior Year = $2409498/860535
= 2.8
b) There is an increase in the Fixed asset turnover which indicates an increase in efficiency of using fixed assets to generate sales.
Answer:
a. Current year 1.5 Prior year 1.4
b. Yes it indicates a favorable trend as it shows that sales of $1.50 was generated for every $1 invested in current year as against $1.40 for every $1 invested in prior year.
Explanation:
Fixed Asset turnover is the ratio of revenue to average Fixed assets of a company.
It is a financial indicator that shows how much revenue a company generates in an accounting period for each $ 1 invested in assets (fixed asset in this case).
Average assets in the
current year
= $901,070 + $829,330
= $1,730,400
Prior year
= $820,000 + $901,070
= $1,721,070
As such fixed assets turnover for
current year
= $2,595,600/$1,730,400
= 1.5
prior year
= $2,409,498/$1,721,070
= 1.4
Foreman Mining purchased land containing a copper deposit for $2,640,000 on January 7, 2021. The company expects to mine 770,000 tons of copper over the next 10 years, and the land is expected to have a residual value of $1,408,000. The company has also purchased mining equipment for $570,000 that will be used only at this site over the 10 years with an estimated residual value of $54,100. By the end of the first year, the company has mined and sold 61,000 tons of copper. What is the cost attributed to copper inventory for 2021, assuming the company uses the units-of-production method?
Answer:
$138,470
Explanation:
cost of mine = $2,640,000
residual value of the land = $1,408,000
cost of equipment = $570,000
residual value = $54,100
it should contain 770,000 tons of copper
units of production depreciation method:
depreciation of mine = ($2,640,000 - $1,408,000) / 770,000 tons of copper = $1.60 per ton of copperdepreciation of equipment = ($570,000 - $54,100) / 770,000 tons of copper = $0.67 per ton of coppertotal depreciation per ton of copper = $1.60 + $0.67 = $2.27since 61,000 tons were extracted, then the depreciation expense = 61,000 x $2.27 = $138,470

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.
Aquatic Equipment Corporation decided to switch from the LIFO method of costing inventories to the FIFO method at the beginning of 2021. The inventory as reported at the end of 2020 using LIFO would have been $59,000 higher using FIFO. Retained earnings at the end of 2020 was reported as $770,000 (reflecting the LIFO method). The tax rate is 35%. Required: 1. Calculate the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2021) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years. 2. Prepare the journal entry at the beginning of 2021 to record the change in accounting principle.
Answer:
1. The balance in retained earnings at the time of the change is $808,350
2. The journal entry at the beginning of 2021 to record the change in accounting principle woud be as follows:
Inventoty $59,000
Retained Earnings $38,350
Tax Payable $20,650
Explanation:
1. In order to calculate the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2021) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years we would have to make the following calculation:
balance in retained earnings at the time of the change=Begining Retained earnings of 2021+Adjusted net income
Adjusted net income=Ending inventory higher by amount×(1-tax rate)
Adjusted net income=$59,000×(1-0.35)
Adjusted net income=$38,350
balance in retained earnings at the time of the change=$770,000+$38,350
balance in retained earnings at the time of the change=$808,350
2. The journal entry at the beginning of 2021 to record the change in accounting principle woud be as follows:
Inventoty $59,000
Retained Earnings $38,350
Tax Payable $20,650= $59,000×0.35
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.

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.
Dan Bumblauskas is the owner of a small Iowa company that produces electric knives used to cut fabric. The annual demand is for 10 comma 500 knives, and Dan produces the knives in batches. On average, Dan can produce 190 knives per day; during the production process, demand has been about 70 knives per day. The cost to set up the production process is $85, and it costs Dan $1.10 to carry a knife for 1 year. How many knives should Dan produce in each batch?
Answer:
1,012.36 knives produced in each month
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Annual demand = 10,500
Ordering cost = $85
Holding cost = $1.10
Daily demand = 70 knives per day
Production knives per day = 190 knives
Based on the given information, we need to apply the formula which is shown below:[tex]Economic\ order\ quantity = \sqrt{\frac{2\times annual\ demand \times ordering\ cost}{holding\ cost} \times 1 - \frac{daily\ demand}{production}[/tex]
[tex]Economic\ order\ quantity = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 10,500 \times\$85}{\$1.10} \times 1 - \frac{70}{190}[/tex]
= 1,012.36 knives produced in each month
We simply applied the above formula to find out the knives produced in each batch

Joe Jenkins, the owner of Jenkins Manufacturing, is considering whether to produce a new product. Joe will be selling the product for a price of $70 per unit. If he uses the current equipment, Joe estimates the fixed costs per year to be $40,000 and variable costs for each unit produced to be $50. However, Joe is considering the purchase of new equipment that would produce the product more efficiently. Joe’s fixed cost would be raised to $60,000 per year, but the variable cost would be reduced to $25 per unit. If Joe's demand forecast is 900 units, should Joe produce the product using the existing or the new equipment? Produce using the existing equipment. Produce using the new equipment. Does not matter, which equipment is used. The product should not be produced at all.
Answer:
Jenkins Manufacturing
Joe should produce using the new equipment.
Explanation:
a) Costs incurred using the old equipment:
Variable costs = $45,000 ($50 x 900)
Fixed costs = $40,000
Total costs = $85,000
Operating Loss = $22,000 ($63,000 - 85,000)
b) Costs incurred using the new equipment:
Variable costs = $22,500 ($25 x 900)
Fixed costs = $60,000
Total costs = $82,500
Operating Loss = $19,500 ($63,000 - 82,500)
Production using the new equipment would reduce the operating loss by $2,500.
The company should produce by using the new equipment.
Based on thw information given, the cost that's incurred using the old equipment will be
Variable costs = ($50 x 900) = $45,000
Fixed costs = $40,000
Total costs = Fixed cost + Variable cost
= $40000 + $45,000
= $85,000
Operating Loss will be:
= ($63,000 - 85,000) = -$22000
The costs incurred using the new equipment will be:
Variable costs = ($25 x 900) = $22,500
Fixed costs = $60,000
Total costs = $60000 + $22500 = $82,500
Operating Loss = ($63,000 - 82,500) = -$19,500
Based on the calculation, the company should produce by using the new equipment.

Anderson Steel Company began 2018 with 550,000 shares of common stock outstanding. On March 31, 2018, 140,000 new shares were sold at a price of $50 per share. The market price has risen steadily since that time to a high of $55 per share at December 31. No other changes in shares occurred during 2018, and no securities are outstanding that can become common stock. However, there are two agreements with officers of the company for future issuance of common stock. Both agreements relate to compensation arrangements reached in 2017. The first agreement grants to the company president a right to 42,000 shares of stock each year the closing market price is at least $53. The agreement begins in 2019 and expires in 2022. The second agreement grants to the controller a right to 47,000 shares of stock if she is still with the firm at the end of 2026. Net income for 2018 was $5,200,000.
Required:
Compute Anderson Steel Company's basic and diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2018. (Enter your answers in thousands.)
Answer:
EPS = $7.94
diluted EPS = $7.94, since there are no diluted shares in 2018
Explanation:
January 2018 = 550,000 common stocks
March 31 = 140,000 new shares issued = 105,000 weighted stocks
net income = $5,200,000
EPS = net income / weighted common stocks = $5,200,000 / (550,000 + 105,000) = $5,200,000 / 655,000 stocks = $7.939 ≈ $7.94 per stock
there are no diluted shares since the agreement with the president of the board starts in 2019, and we are calculating the EPS for 2018. The same applies to the controller, since her agreement starts in 2026.
g Based on the Keynesian model, one reason to support government spending increases over tax cuts as a tool for stimulating the economy is: Group of answer choices the government-spending multiplier is smaller than the tax multiplier. the government-spending multiplier is larger than the tax multiplier. tax cuts do not cause the budget deficit to increase. increases in government spending do not cause the budget deficit to increase.
Answer:
The answer is: The multiplier of public spending is greater than the tax multiplier.
Explanation:
Unemployment is caused by insufficient global demand. Therefore, to combat unemployment, aggregate demand (Da) will have to be increased, and for this, according to Keynes' formula, the following components must be acted on:
-Increase demand for consumer goods (C)
To stimulate consumption, taxes will have to be reduced, thus causing an increase in the disposable income of families.
-Increase the demand for investment goods (I)
This increase will be achieved by reducing the cost of money; in other words, lowering interest rates, thus encouraging companies to invest.
-Increase public sector demand (G)
It comes from the increase in public spending by the State (more roads, more hospitals).
-Increase the demand of international markets (X-M)
To promote exports, the exchange rate will have to be reduced. Increasing exports boosts domestic production.
The following information will be used for 2 questions on this exam: Charlotte Corporation's management keeps track of the time it takes to process orders. During the most recent month, the following average times were recorded per order: Time spent between receipt of order and start of production 3.7 days Time spent ensuring quality levels 0.2 days Time spent working on the product 1.3 days Time spent transporting the product between work stations 0.8 days Time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory 6.9 days What is the throughput time?
Answer:
6.00 days
Explanation:
data provided
Inspection time = 3.7 days
Process time = 0.2 days
Move time = 1.3 days
Queue time = 0.8 days
The calculation of throughput time is given below:-
Throughput time = Inspection time + Process time + Move time + Queue time
= 3.7 days + 0.2 days + 1.3 days + 0.8 days
= 6.00 days
Here, we added the inspection time, process time , move time and queue time to reach at throughput time and we ignore the time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory as it is not relevant.
A firm that has an ROE of 12% is considering cutting its dividend payout. The stockholders of the firm desire a dividend yield of 4% and a capital gain yield of 9%. Given this information, which of the following statements is (are) correct? I. All else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change. II. All else equal, the firm's stock price will go up after the payout change. III. All else equal, the firm's P/E ratio will increase after the payout change. Multiple Choice I only
Answer:
I only is correct. That is, all else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change.
Explanation:
Holding every other condition constant, the cutting of the company's dividend payout will lead to a permanent fall in the dividend per share and this will cause a decrease in price.
However, the cutting the company's dividend payout will increased the retention rate that will increase the growth rate of the company.
Therefore, all else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change.

Stefani Company has gathered the following information about its product. Direct materials: Each unit of product contains 3.90 pounds of materials. The average waste and spoilage per unit produced under normal conditions is 1.10 pounds. Materials cost $4 per pound, but Stefani always takes the 2.00% cash discount all of its suppliers offer. Freight costs average $0.40 per pound. Direct labor. Each unit requires 1.60 hours of labor. Setup, cleanup, and downtime average 0.10 hours per unit. The average hourly pay rate of Stefani’s employees is $10.90. Payroll taxes and fringe benefits are an additional $3.20 per hour. Manufacturing overhead. Overhead is applied at a rate of $7.60 per direct labor hour. Compute Stefani’s total standard cost per unit
Answer:
$58.49 per unit
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the total standard cost by using following formula:-
Material Cost Per Unit = Material Cost × (1 - Cash Discount Rate) + Freight Average Cost
= $4 × (1 - 0.02) + .40
= $4 × 0.98 + .40
= $4.32 per pound
Material Used Per Unit = Each Unit Product Contain Material + Average Waste and Spoilage Per Unit Produced
= 3.90 + 1.10
= 5
Direct Material Cost= Material Cost Per Unit × Material Used Per Unit
= $4.32 × 5
= $21.6 per unit
Cost Per hour = Average hour Pay Rate + Payroll Taxes and Fringe Benefits Cost
= $10.90 + $3.20
= $14.1
Direct Labor hour = Cost Per hour × Each Unit Required hour
= $14.1 × (1.60 + 0.10)
= $14.1 × 1.70
= $23.97 per unit
Manufacturing Overhead
= Overhead Applied Rate Per Direct Labor hour × Each Unit Required Hour
= $7.60 × (1.60 + 0.10)
= $7.60 × 1.70
= $12.92 per unit
Total Standard Cost Per Unit = Direct Material Cost + Direct Labor Cost + Manufacturing Overhead
= $21.6 + $23.97 + $12.92
= $58.49 per unit
The Computation of Stefani's total standard cost per unit will give result of $58.49 per unit.
Total Standard Cost
To Calculate Total Standard Cost we need to add Direct Material Cost, Direct Labor Cost and Manufacturing Overhead.
A. Direct Material Cost = Material Cost Per Unit × Material Used Per Unit
Material Cost Per Unit = Material Cost × (1 - Cash Discount Rate) + Freight Average Cost
= $4 × (1 - 0.02) + .40
= $4.32 per pound.
Material Used Per Unit = Each Unit Product Contain Material + Average Waste and Spoilage Per Unit Produced
= 3.90 + 1.10
= $5
Direct Material Cost = $4.32 × 5 = $21.6 per unit.
B. Direct Labor Cost
It equals to Cost Per hour × Each Unit Required hour.
Cost Per hour = Average hour Pay Rate + Payroll Taxes and Fringe Benefits Cost
= $10.90 + $3.20
= $14.1
Direct Labor Cost = $14.1 × (1.60 + 0.10) = $23.97 per unit
C. Manufacturing Overhead
It equals to Overhead Applied Rate Per Direct Labor hour × Each Unit Required Hour
= $7.60 × (1.60 + 0.10)
= $12.92 per unit.
Total Standard Cost Per Unit = A + B + C = $21.6 + $23.97 + $12.92
= $58.49 per unit

b. Determine the variable cost markup percentage for cellular phones. Round to two decimal places.
c. Determine the selling price of cellular phones. If required, round to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
(a). Total variable Cost = $2,890,000
Total variable Cost Per Unit = $289
(b). Variable Cost Markup Percentage = 12.46%
(c). Selling Price Per Unit = $325
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
a). Total Fixed Cost = Selling and Administrative Expenses + Factory Overhead
= $140,000 + $350,000 = $490,000
Fixed Cost Per Unit = Total Fixed Cost ÷ Cost of Produced and Selling Units
= $490,000 ÷ 10,000 = $49
Total variable Cost Per Unit = Fixed Cost Per Unit + Variable Cost Per Unit
= $49 + $240 = $289
Total variable Cost = Cost of Produced and Selling Units × Total Cost Per Unit
= 10,000 × $289 = $2,890,000
b). Desired Profit = Invested Assets × 30%
= $1,200,000 × 30÷100 = $360,000
Variable Cost Markup Percentage = Desired Profit ÷ Total Cost
=$360,000 ÷ $2,890,000 = 0.1246 = 12.46%
c). Selling Price Per Unit = (1 + Variable Cost Markup Percentage) × Total Cost Per Unit
= (1 + 12.46%) × $289
= 1.1246 × $289
= $325

AOCI (net gain) amortized in 2021=$26,250
Your bagel shop uses both capital and labor in the production of bagels. In this production process capital and labor are substitutes. If you install a new oven and the marginal product of capital increases, you will:
a. reduce the number of workers you employ
b. increase the number of workers you employ
c. reduce the amount of capital you are using not make any changes since you are already maximizing profit
Answer:
The answer is option A) reduce the number of workers you employ
Explanation:
Installing a new oven is capital intensive. So, for a business person to incur an additional capital cost to aid the efficiency of production, something has to give.
In this case, where capital and labor are substitutes, installing a new oven will drastically reduce the workload thereby necessitating a reduction in the number of workers.
By implication, the cost of paying wages which is a recurrent expenditure will reduce. In the long run and if the oven is maintained, it will e a very cost effective option.
Installing a new oven also suggests a marginal increment in capital.
