Flexible Budgeting
At the beginning of the period, the Grinding Department budgeted direct labor of $159,600 and property tax of $56,000 for 7,600 hours of production. The department actually completed 9,500 hours of production.
Determine the budget for the department, assuming that it uses flexible budgeting.
$
Answer and Explanation:
The calculation is given below:
Fabricating department
The budgeted cost is
= $9,280 ÷ 640 hours × 600 hours + $2,300
= $8,700 + $2,300
= $11,000
Grinding department
= $159,600 ÷ 7,600 hours × 9,500 hours + $56,000
= $199,500 + $56,000
= $255,500
In this way the budgeted cost should be determined
ABC Corp. has a market capitalization of $300 million and a beta of 0.75. It has $75 million in outstanding debt and its debt beta is 0.20. The risk-free rate is 3% and the market risk-premium is 5%.
Required:
Calculate ABCâs unlevered cost of capital.
Answer:
6.20000%
Explanation:
The computation of the unlevered cost of capital is shown below;
Asset beta is
= (Debt × Debt beta + Equity × Equity beta) ÷ (Debt + Equity)
= (75 × 0.20 + 300 × 0.75) ÷ (75 + 300)
= 0.6400000
Now
Unlevered cost of capital is
= risk free rate + asset beta × market risk premium
= 3% + 0.6400000 × 5%
= 6.20000%

a. Answer:The corresponding probabilities are obtained by converting the percentages into probabilities. That is, by dividing each value with 100.
F/N (where F =percentage of accidents and N =100)
Explanation:
X 0 1 2 3 4
f(X) 0.096 0.57 0.238 0.077 0.019
b. The formula for the expected value of a discrete random variable is E(x)= µ=∑xf(x)
X F(X) X.f(X)
0 0.096 0
1 0.57 0.57
2 0.238 0.476
3 0.077 0.231
4 0.019 0.076
Total 1 1.353
Hence, the value for expected value of X is 1.353
The formula for the variance of the discrete random variables is Var(x)= σ² =∑(x-µ)²f(x)
X F(X) (x-µ) (x-µ)² (x-µ)².f(x)
0 0.096 -1.353 1.8306 0.1757
1 0.57 -0.353 0.1246 0.0710

3 0.077 1.647 2.7126 0.2089
4 0.019 2.647 7.0066 0.1331
Total 1 3.235 12.0930 0.6884
Hence, the variance of the random variable x is 0.6884
The formula for the standard deviation of the discrete random variables is
σ=√(∑[(x-µ)².f(x)] )
Thus, the standard deviation is σ= √0.6884
=0.8297
Hence, the standard deviation of the random variable x is 0.8297

For a model economy, the mpc (marginal propensity to consume) is 0.8. Current GDP is $100 million. Potential GDP is $60 million. To reach full employment (reduce inflationary gap), government spending must g
Answer:
To reach full employment (reduce inflationary gap), government spending must fall by $8 million.
Explanation:
Multiplier = 1 / (1 - mpc) = 1 / (1 - 0.8) = 5
Output gap = Current GDP - Potential GDP = $100 - $60 = $40 million
Amount of change in government expenditure needed = Output gap / mpc = $40 / 5 = $8 million
Since the Potential GDP is less than the Current GDP, this implies that the government spending must fall by $8 million to reach full employment.
Therefore, to reach full employment (reduce inflationary gap), government spending must fall by $8 million.

Explanation:
The Pizza Company is considering a new three-year expansion project. The key data are shown below:
The company hired a consulting firm to help evaluate the project and paid the consulting fee of $60,000. The company owns the space. If company did not invest in the project, it can receive after-tax rental fee for $300,000 per year for 3 years. However, if the
company invested in the project, it will use the space for the project.
The fixed cost to produce pizza is required at $150,000 per year.
It is estimated that 50,000 units will be sold in the first year and that 40,000 units and 30,000 units will be sold in the second and third years respectively.
Each pizza is expected to sell for $25 and the production cost will be $15 per unit.
The sales price and variable cost should increase with inflation. Expected inflation rate per year is 5%.
The project requires an initial investment in working capital of $500,000, which will be required in each year at 10% of revenue in the following year.
The purchase of the machinery at the start of the project is $1,000,000. The shipping and installation cost are $200,000. The machinery will be depreciated straight-line to zero. It is estimated that the machinery can be sold at the end of the project for $250,000.
To finance the project, the company would need to take a one-million dollar loan at 8% interest rate p.a. from HSBC over the life of the project. Annual interest expense is $80,000.
The corporate tax rate is 34%.
The Pizza Company is evaluating its cost of capital under alternative financing arrangements. In consultation with the consulting firm, the Pizza Company expects to be able to issue new Debt at Par with a coupon rate of 8% (coupons paid annually) and to issue new preferred stock with a $4 per share dividend at $32 a share. The common stock of the Pizza Company is currently selling for $22 a share while its book value is $6. The Pizza Company expects to pay a total
dividend of $525,000 for its 200,000 common shares outstanding next year. Market analysts foresee a growth in dividends of the company at the rate of 4% per year. The Pizza Company raises capital using 30% bond, 20% preferred stock, and 50% common stock

The common stock of Buffalo Inc. is currently selling at $113 per share. The directors wish to reduce the share price and increase share volume prior to a new issue. The per share par value is $10; book value is $68 per share. 8.40 million shares are issued and outstanding.
Required:
Prepare the necessary journal entries assuming the following.
a. The board votes a 2-for-l stock split.
b. The board votes a 100% stock dividend. Briefly discuss the accounting and securities market differences between these two methods of increasing the number of shares outstanding.
Answer:
Buffalo Inc.
a. Journal Entry:
No journal entry required except a memorandum to record the split.
b. Journal Entry:
Debit Stock Dividend (Retained Earnings) $84 million
Credit Stock Dividend Distributable $84 million
To record the declaration of a 100% stock dividend.
When issued:
Debit Stock Dividend Distributable $84 million
Credit Common Stock $84 million
To record the issuance of stock dividends.
2. Both methods increase the outstanding number of shares by 100%. However, with a stock split of 2-for-1, there is no journal entry except a memorandum record to state the split.
Secondly, with a stock split or 2-for-1, the market price is also halved. This does not happen with a stock dividend. The market forces will determine and correct the market price to an acceptable level. A stock dividend requires some accounting entries to be made.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Current market price of common stock per share = $113
Par value per share = $10
Book value per share = $68
Shares issued and outstanding = 8.40 million
a. The board votes a 2-for-l stock split:
Shares outstanding = 16.80 million shares
Market price = $56.50
Journal Entry:
No journal entry required except a memorandum to record the split. The value of common stock remains the same.
b. The board votes a 100% stock dividend:
Shares outstanding will increase to 16.80 million shares
Market price = $113 and level off based on demand and supply.
Journal Entry:
Stock Dividend (Retained Earnings) $84 million
Common Stock $84 million
The sequence of events that results in a new equilibrium interest rate, after the Fed makes the change you selected, may be described as follows:
Because there is ______________ money in the financial system, the quantity of interest-bearing financial assets such as bonds demanded _____________, which means that bond issuers __________________ sell the bonds. This process continues until the new equilibrium interest rate is achieved.
Answer:
Following are the responses to the given question:
Explanation:
Due to the increased amount of currency in the banking sector, the amount of interest-bearing economic stocks and bonds has reduced, because when interest rates fall and bond demand rises or vice versa, the interplay between bond yields and bond prices grows In this case, bond demand will decline, implying, therefore, corporate bonds must increase interest for issue debt still. It is because, whereas if bond rates increase, the price of the bond will drop, that will lead to an increase in the consumption for bonds.
A one-year insurance policy was purchased on June 1 for $2,400. The adjusting entry on December 31 would be:____________. (If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.) Dec. 31 i. Accounts Payable ii. Cash iii. Insurance Expense iv. Insurance Payable v. Prepaid Insurance
Answer:
Adjusting Journal Entry:
Debit Insurance Expense $1,400
Credit Prepaid Insurance $1,400
To record the insurance expense for the year (7 months).
Explanation:
This adjustment will cause the Prepaid Insurance account to remain $1,000. This balance represents the insurance cost for 5 months having deducted the insurance cost for 7 months from June 1 to December 31. So, in line with the accrual concept and the matching principle of generally accepted accounting principles, only $1,400 Insurance was incurred for the current year. The balance will be charged to the account when the service is consumed.

London Company hired some students to help count inventory during their semester break. Unfortunately, the students added incorrectly and the 2019 ending inventory was overstated by $5,000. What would be the effect of this error in ending inventory
The effect of this error in ending inventory would be decrease in cost of goods sold and increase in increasing ending inventory.
Overstating inventory decreases COGS or cost of goods sold because the surplus stock in accounting records results in a higher closing stock and lower COGS. Current assets, total assets, and retained earnings are all exaggerated as a result of overstated ending inventories.

Gravity, Inc., needs to raise $53 million to fund its expansion plans. The company will sell shares at a price of $29.00 in a general cash offer and the company's underwriters will charge a spread of 7.5 percent. How many shares need to be sold?a- 1,975,769b- 1,827,586c- 1,457,212d- 2,195,299e- 1,700,080
Answer:
a. 1,975,769
Explanation:
Underwriter's commission per share = 7.5% * $29
Underwriter's commission per share = $2.175
Amount received by company per share = Price per share in general cash offer - Underwriter's commission per share
Amount received by company per share = $29 - $2.175
Amount received by company per share = $26.825
Amount that company wants to raise = Number of shares sold * Amount received by company per share
53,000,000 = Number of shares sold * $26.825
Number of shares sold = 53,000,000 / $26.825
Number of shares sold = 1975768.87
No of shares to be sold = 1,975,768

What is the price-earnings ratio?
2. A firm has a return on equity of 18%. The total asset turnover is 1.7 and the profit margin is 6%. The total equity is $7,200.
What is the amount of the net income?
Answer:
17.43
132.19
Explanation:
Net profit margin is an example of a profitability ratio. It measures he ability of a firm to earn a profit from its assets
Net profit margin = Net income / Revenue
0.05 = x / 9800
net income = 490
net income per share = 490 / 4500 = 0.109
p/e = 1.9 / 0.109 = 17.43
Using the Dupont formula, ROE can be determined using:
ROE = Net profit margin x asset turnover x financial leverage
ROE = (Net income / Sales) x (Sales/Total Assets) x (total asset / common equity)

On January 1, 2019, Wasson Company purchased a delivery vehicle costing $36,500. The vehicle has an estimated 6-year life and a $3,500 residual value. What is the vehicle's book value as of December 31, 2020, assuming Wasson uses the straight-line depreciation method
Answer:
Book value= $25,500
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $36,500
Residual value= $3,500
Useful life= 6 years
First, we need to calculate the annual depreciation:
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (36,500 - 3,500) / 6
Annual depreciation= $5,500
Now, the accumulated depreciation and book value:
Accumulated depreciation= 5,500*2= $11,000
Book value= 36,500 - 11,000
Book value= $25,500
