Answer:
$2.35 per share
Explanation:
The computation of the earning per share is shown below:
Earning per share = (Net income - preference dividend) ÷ (Number of shares outstanding)
= ($600,000 - $12,000) ÷ (250,000 shares)
= $588,000 ÷ 250,000 shares
= $2.35 per share
The preference dividend is
= $240,000 × 5%
= $12,000
We simply applied the above formula
Matt and Joel are equal partners in the MJ Partnership. For the current year ended December 31, the partnership has book income of $80,000, which includes the following deductions: (1) guaranteed payments (salaries) to partners: Matt, $35,000; and Joel, $25,000; and (2) charitable contributions, $6,000. The book income amount does not include any sales of capital assets or Sec. 1231 assets or any taxminusexempt income. Based on the above information, what amount should be reported as ordinary income on the partnership return?
Answer:
$86,000
Explanation:
A partnership is a pass through entity that is not taxed directly, but instead its partners are taxed. Even the partners' salaries are recorded as drawings, not salary expense.
The partnership's total ordinary income = book income + any donations or contributions to charities = $80,000 + $6,000 = $86,000
At the beginning of 2020, Vaughn Company acquired a mine for $1,965,400. Of this amount, $115,000 was ascribed to the land value and the remaining portion to the minerals in the mine. Surveys conducted by geologists have indicated that approximately 11,010,000 units of ore appear to be in the mine. Vaughn incurred $195,500 of development costs associated with this mine prior to any extraction of minerals. It also determined that the fair value of its obligation to prepare the land for an alternative use when all of the mineral has been removed was $46,000. During 2020, 2,433,000 units of ore were extracted and 2,081,000 of these units were sold.
Compute the total amount of depletion for 2020.
Answer:
$462,270.00
Explanation:
The first task is to determine the depletion rate per unit of ore extracted from the mine.
depletion rate=total cost the mine/total units of ore extract
total cost of mine=acquisition cost-land value+development costs+removal cost
total cost of mine=$1,965,400-$115,000+$195,500+$46,000=$2,091,900.00
total units of ore extract is 11,010,000 units
depletion rate= 2,091,900.00/11,010,000=$0.19 per unit of ore
depletion amount in 2020=depletion rate*ore extracted in 2020=2,433,000*$0.19 =$462,270.00
Answer:
$408,903
Explanation:
Depletion is an estimated cost of a natural resource that is extracted. This resource is expensed as the extraction is made.
As per given data
Total Payment = $1,965,400
Land Value = $115,000
Value of Rights = $1,965,400 - $115,000 = $1,850,400
Estimated resources = 11,010,000 units
Resources extracted in the period = 2,433,000 units
Depletion expense is based on ratio of the amount of extraction in period to the total expected resource.
Depletion Expense = $1,850,400 x 2,433,000 / 11,010,000 units = $408,903
Topic: The Consumer and Business Market To increase revenue, many businesses, such as gift basket, insurance, tax preparation, food, and entertainment businesses, have targeted consumer and business markets. However, the decision-making process is a bit different for each market. Checklist: First, briefly describe the similarities and differences in the decision-making process between the business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) groups. Next, choose a business that predominantly targets the consumer market. Explain how they can reposition themselves to increase their sales to the business market using the business decision-making process.
Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
B2B decisions are made between business entities (business and wholesaler, wholesaler and retailer) while B2C decisions are made between business and individuals (business and individual customers). Decision Making Units (DMU) is common in B2B and B2C decisions.
In a B2B, the key DMU includes economic buyer, infrastructure buyer and the user buyer. The economic buyer is the person buying a product, infrastructure buyer is the person providing infrastructure to make the purchase happen and the user buyer is the person supplying the product.
In the case of a decision-making process in a B2C, the DMU is a group of people making the decisions on the purchase of goods. B2C decision making consists of a buying center with users, buyers, influencers, gatekeepers and deciders.
The buying center is the key DMU in a B2C segment. The initiators in the buying center offer suggestions in a product purchase. The influencers provide their opinions in a product purchase. The buyers are the persons responsible for the entire contract. The gatekeepers control the information flow. Deciders take the final decision on a purchase. End users purchase the final product and use the item.
Consider the restaurant or fast food business that predominantly targets the corporate employees. In this case, a B2B decision-making process can be used to get more customers and improve their sales.
The economic buyer in this case is the employee of the corporate, the infrastructure buyer is the corporate entity and the user buyer is the fast food company supplying the food item. In this manner, a network with various corporate entities in the local area could improve the sales of the fast food company.
Similarly, a B2C decision-making process can be used to improve the sales by directly selling to the employees of the corporate and other people requiring fast food delivery at home through a mobile app.
In the decision-making process of B2C, the buyers are the fast food company, influencers may the persons including friends, family members and other entities, end users are the persons purchasing food through mobile app and gatekeepers are the persons responsible for maintaining the mobile app.

Oak Island Amusements Center provides the following data on the costs of maintenance and the number of visitors for the last three years: Number of Visitors per Year: (thousands) Maintenance Costs ($000) 1,845 $ 2,773 2,025 3,052 2,600 3,830 Required: a. Use the high-low method to estimate the fixed cost of maintenance annually and the variable cost of maintenance per visitor. (Enter your answers in dollars not in thousands of dollars. Round "Variable cost" answer to 2 decimal places.) b. The company expects a record 2,300,000 visitors next year. What would be the estimated maintenance costs
Answer:
a. (i) $1.40
(ii) $190,000
b. $3,410,000
Explanation:
The computation of fixed cost of maintenance annually and the variable cost of maintenance per visitor is shown below:-
a. (i) Variable cost per visitor = (Maintenance cost at highest number of visitors - Maintenance cost at lowest number of visitors) ÷ (Highest number of visitor - Lowest number of visitor)
= ($3,830,000 - $2,773,000) ÷ ($2,600,000 - $1,845,000)
= $1,057,000 ÷ $755,000
= $1.40
(ii) Fixed cost of maintenance = Total costs - Variable cost at that level
= $2,773,000 - $1,845,000 × $1.40
= $2,773,000 - $2,583,000
= $190,000
b. The computation of estimated maintenance costs is shown below:-
Estimated maintenance costs = Fixed costs + Variable cost per visitors × Number of visitors
= $190,000 + 2,300,000 × $1.40
= $190,000 + $3,220,000
= $3,410,000
Mercury Company reports depreciation expense of $49,000 for Year 2. Also, equipment costing $168,000 was sold for its book value in Year 2. There were no other equipment purchases or sales during the year. The following selected information is available for Mercury Company from its comparative balance sheet. Compute the cash received from the sale of the equipment. At December 31 Year 2 Year 1 Equipment $ 655,000 $ 823,000 Accumulated Depreciation-Equipment 464,000 545,000 Multiple Choice $49,000. $87,000. $38,000. $81,000. $40,500.
Answer:
The cash received from sale is $38000
Explanation:
We first need to calculate the book value of the equipment that is sold.
Book value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation
The accumulated depreciation on the equipment sold can be calculated by calculating the change in overall accumulated depreciation. Using the following equation to calculate the closing balance of accumulated depreciation, we can calculate the accumulated depreciation for the equipment that is sold.
Closing balance = Opening balance + Depreciation expense for the year - Accumulated depreciation on the asset disposed
Let Accumulated depreciation on the asset disposed be x.
464000 = 545000 + 49000 - x
x = 594000 - 464000
x = 130000
Thus, the book value of the asset sold was,
Book value = 168000 - 130000 = $38000
As the asset is sold for its book value, the cash received from sale is also $38000

Ginger Corporation makes one product and has provided the following information: a. The budgeted selling price per unit is $89. Budgeted unit sales for August is 8,300 units. b. Each unit of finished goods requires 4 pounds of raw materials. The raw materials cost $2.00 per pound. c. The direct labor wage rate is $21.00 per hour. Each unit of finished goods requires 2.6 direct labor-hours. d. Manufacturing overhead is entirely variable and is $7.00 per direct labor-hour. Ginger Corp's estimated cost of goods sold for August is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Cost Of Goods Sold $80.8 per unit.
Explanation:
This Cost of Goods sold is calculated assuming there were no opening and ending work in process or finished goods.
Units sold in August 8,300
Raw materials used = 4* 8300= 33200 pounds
Cost of Raw materials used = $2 * 33200= $ 66400
Direct Labor Hours Required = 2.6 * 8,300= 21580 hours
Direct Labor = $ 21 * 21580 hours= $ 453180
Manufacturing Overhead= $ 7 *21580 hours =$ 151060
Cost of Goods Sold =$ 66400+ $ 453180+$ 151060= $ 670640
Cost Of Goods Sold per unit = $ 670640/ 8300= $80.8
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.
Consider the oil-producing countries of A, B, and C. Each has a marginal cost of zero. World demand is given by Q = 1430 - P. Suppose the three countries form a cartel, and that none of them has an incentive to deviate from the cartel. By how many units lower is the total output of oil under the cartel relative to the Cournot solution?
Answer: 357.50
Explanation:
Under Cournot model that has three firms, each firm produces at
q = (1430 – 0)/((3+1)×1)
= 1430/4
= 357.5 units
Total output = 357.5 × 3
= 1072.5 units
Under cartel, the marginal revenue equals to the marginal cost.
MR = MC = 0
1430 – 2Q = 0
Q = 1430/2
Q = 715 units
Difference= 1072.5 units - 715 units
= 357.5 units
Hence the units are 357.50 units lower in cartel compared to Cournot.
Oriole, Inc., management expects the company to earn cash flows of $11,800, $14,000, $18,200, and $19,000 over the next four years. If the company uses an 10 percent discount rate, what is the future value of these cash flows at the end of year 4? (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25. Do not round factor values.)
Answer:
The future value of these cash flows at the end of year 4 is $71,885.80
Explanation:
In order to calculate the future value of these cash flows at the end of year 4 we would have to use the following formula:
n
∑
FV = i=1 [CFi * (1 + r)(n - i)]
FV = [$11,800 * (1 + 0.10)∧(4-1)] + [$14,000 * (1 + 0.10)∧(4-2)] + [$18,200 * (1 + 0.10)(4-3)] + [$19,000 * (1 + 0.10)(4-4)]
FV = $15,705.80 + $16,940 + $20,020 + $19,000
FV=$71,665.80
The future value of these cash flows at the end of year 4 is $71,885.80
Answer:
Future Value of Cash Flows = $71,665.80
Explanation:
Cash Flows:
Year 1 = $11,800
Year 2 = $14,000
Year 3 = $18,200
Year 4 = $19,000
Discount Rate = 10%
Future Value of Cash Flows = $11,800 × 1.10^3 + $14,000 × 1.10^2 + $18,200 × 1.10^1 + $19,000 × 1.10^0
Future Value of Cash Flows = $11,800 × 1.331 + $14,000 × 1.21 + $18,200 × 1.10 + $19,000 × 1
Future Value of Cash Flows = $15,705.8 + $16,940 + $20,020 + $19,000
Future Value of Cash Flows = $71,665.80
So, the future value of these cash flows at the end of year 4 is $71,665.80

Answer:
NPV = $23,773.65
Explanation:
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:
Cash flow in year 0 = $-80,000
Cash flow each year for 1 and 2 = $35,000
Cash flow each year for 3 and 4 = $30,000
I = 10%
NPV = $23,773.65

Use of the marginal cost of capital
a. None of these options are correct.
b. recognizes that the return from the last dollar of funds generated should be greater than or equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised.
c. acknowledges that when retained earnings are used up as a source of equity, the cost of capital rises as new common stock is sold to support more growth and recognizes that the return from the last dollar of funds generated should be greater than or equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised.
d. acknowledges that when retained earnings are used up as a source of equity, the cost of capital rises as new common stock is sold to support more growth.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option B: recognizes that the return from the last dollar of funds generated should be greater than or equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised.
Explanation:
To begin with, the concept of ''marginal cost of capital'' refers to the composite rate of return that is required by the shareholders and the debt-holders in order to establish a new investment in the actual company. Moreover, this type of cost relates to the weighted average cost of the last dollar of new capital raised by the company and is has the necessity of being greater than or at least equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised due to the fact that only in that way the investors will consider to invest again in a new project for the company.
A disadvantage of the "few suppliers" sourcing strategy is: Question 20 options: A) the risk of not being ready for technological change. B) the lack of cost savings for customers and suppliers. C) possible violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act. D) the high cost of changing partners. E) the suppliers are less likely to understand the broad objectives of the procuring firm and the end customer.
Answer: D) the high cost of changing partners.
Explanation: The high cost of changing partners is often a disadvantage of the "few suppliers" sourcing strategy. The few suppliers sourcing strategy is one wherein companies rely on few suppliers in order to lower transaction and production costs, to keep materials and processes tightly regulated among others. It offers some advantages, some of which includes that suppliers are more likely to understand the broad objectives of the end customer ; there is creation of value by allowing suppliers to have economies of scale and the suppliers are often willing to provide technological expertise.
Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances At the beginning of June, Bezco Toy Company budgeted 10,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct materials and direct labor costs as follows: Direct materials $10,500 Direct labor 4,800 Total $15,300 The standard materials price is $0.7 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $12 per hour. At the end of June, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows: Actual direct materials $9,500 Actual direct labor 4,400 Total $13,900 There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct materials inventory balances in June. Bezco Toy Company actually produced 8,800 units during June. Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal places, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
Answer:
Direct material quantity variance = -$260 Unfavorable
Direct labor time variance = -$176 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances is shown below:-
Direct material quantity variance = (Standard Direct material ÷ Company budgeted × Produced units) - Actual direct material
= ($10,500 ÷ 10,000 × 8,800) - $9,500
= ($1.05 × 8,800) - $9,500
= $9,240 - $9,500
= -$260 Unfavorable
Direct labor time variance = (Standard Direct labor ÷ Company budgeted × Produced units) - Actual direct labor
= ($4,800 ÷ 10,000 × 8,800) - $4,400
= $0.48 × 8,800) - $4,400
= $4,224 - $4,400
= -$176 Unfavorable
Therefore we have applied the above formula.
Oriole Tire Co. just paid an annual dividend of $1.70 on its common shares. If Oriole is expected to increase its annual dividend by 3.10 percent per year into the foreseeable future and the current price of Oriole’s common shares is $19.65, what is the cost of common stock for Oriole? (Round intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places, e.g. 0.1555 and final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25%.)
Answer:
Cost of common stock is 12.02%
Explanation:
The cost of common stock can be computed from share price formula given below:
share price=do*(1+g)/r-g
do is the dividend just paid which is $1.70
g is the expected dividend growth per year which is 3.10%
r is the cost of common stock which is unknown
share price is $19.65
by changing the subject of the formula:
r=do*(1+g)/share price+g
r=1.70*(1+3.10%)/19.65+3.10%
r=1.7527/19.65+3.10%
r=0.0892+3.10%=12.02%
The company's cost of capital which is also the cost of common stock is 12.02%
At XYZ Corp., the master schedule reflects the fact that 50 percent of its output is product version A, 30 percent is version B, and 20 percent is version C. Suppose that over the coming year planned aggregate production is for 10,400 units. Once the production plan is disaggregated evenly throughout the year, what will the weekly production for version A be (assume 52 weeks per year)
Answer:
The weekly production for version A be 100 units
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
The Total aggregate forecast for the year=10,400 units
Number of weeks per year=52 weeks
The weekly production=Total aggregate forecast for the year/ numer of weeks
The weekly production=104,00/52=200 units
Therefore, the weekly production for version A=50%of 200 units
The weekly production for version A=100 units
The weekly production for version A be 100 units
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
Bass Accounting Services expects its accountants to work a total of 26 comma 000 direct labor hours per year. The company's estimated total indirect costs are $ 390 comma 000. The company uses direct labor hours as the allocation base for indirect costs. What is the indirect cost allocation rate? A. $ 18.00 per hour B. $ 30.00 per hour C. $ 15.00 per hour D. $ 150.00 per hour
Answer:
C) $ 15.00 per hour
Explanation:
total labor hours 26,000 per year
total indirect costs $390,000
if the company allocates indirect costs according to labor hours employed, the cost allocation rate should be:
$390,000 / 26,000 = $15 per direct labor hour
This means that for every labor hour employed, $15 will be allocated as indirect costs, e.g. a client requires 50 labor hours per year and $750 (= 50 x $15) in indirect costs.
Answer:
The correct answer is option (c) $15 per hour
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
Expected wok for accountants = 26,000
The company estimated total indirect costs - 390,000
The next step is to find the allocation base cost for indirect cost.
Now,
The indirect labor cost is calculated as follows:
indirect cost allocation rate:
= Total indirect costs/Labor hours
= $390,000/26,000
= $15 per hours
For purposes of determining current E&P, which of the following items cannot be deducted in the year incurred? A. dividendsminus−received deduction B. charitable contribution in excess of the 10% limitation C. life insurance premiums (in excess of the increase in cash surrender value for the policy) paid on the lives of key employees D. capital losses in excess of capital gains
Answer:
A. dividendsminus−received deduction.
Explanation:
This allows companies to avoid mostly third taxes on the same earnings.
It is explained to be a federal tax deduction in the U.S. that is given to certain corporations that get dividends from related entities. The amount of the dividend that a company can deduct from its income tax is tied to how much ownership the company has in the dividend-paying company. However, there are criteria that must be met in order to qualify for a DRD.
The dividends received deduction allows a company that receives a dividend from another company to deduct that dividend from its income and reduce its income tax accordingly.

The single milling machine at Stout Manufacturing was severely overloaded last year. The plant operates eight hours per day, five days per week, and 50 weeks per year. Management prefers a capacity cushion of 15 percent. Two major types of products are routed through the milling machine. The annual demand for product A is 3000 units and 2000 units for product B. The batch size for A is 20 units and 40 units for B. The standard processing time for A is 0.5 hours/unit and 0.8 hours/unit for B. The standard setup time for product A is 2 hours and 8 hours for product B. How many new milling machines are required if Stout does not resort to any short-term capacity options
Answer:
If we assumes we setup machine for product A x times, and B y times, the total hours required is 0.5*3000 + 0.8*2000+ 2*x + 8 *y = 3100+2x+8y. Notice that due to the capacity restriction x has to be no smaller than 150 hours (3000/20) and y has to be no smaller than 50 hours (2000/40). so total required hours must exceed 3100+2*150+8*50=3800. The management prefer a 15% capacity cushion, which means the total duration prepared for the processing should be at least 3800*(1+15%)=4370 hours.
If one machine operates eight hours per day, five days per week and 50 weeks a year, it operates 5*8*50 = 2000 hours in total.
That's why we need 2 more machines ( 3 machines in total since 4370 > 2*2000).
