Explanation:
Currency selection: EAFE/ Manager weight × Currency appreciation(E1/E0 -1)
EAFE: [0.50×(1.1-1)] + [0.20 × (1.2-1)] + [0.30 × (1.3-1)] = 18.0%
Manager: [0.40×(1.1-1)] + [0.55 × (1.2-1)] + [0.05 × (1.3-1)]= 16.5%
Loss of 1.5% relative to EAFE
Country selection:
EAFE/ Manager weight × Return on Equity Index
EAFE: 0.5×12% + 0.2 × 16% + 0.30 × 17% = 14.3%
Manager: 0.4×12% + 0.55 × 16% + 0.05 × 17% = 14.45%
Loss of 0.15% relative to Manager
stock selection : (Manager’s return - Return on Equity Index) × Manager weight
[ (14% - 12%) × 0.4] + [ (16% - 16%) × 0.55] + [(16% - 17%) × 0.05] = -7.5%
Loss of 7.5% relative to EAFE
Stellar Plastics is analyzing a proposed project with annual depreciation of $19,500 and a tax rate of 34 percent. The company expects to sell 12,000 units, plus or minus 5 percent. The expected variable cost per unit is $3.20 plus or minus 4 percent, and the expected fixed costs are $30,000 plus of minus 2 percent. The sales price is estimated at $7.50 a unit, plus or minus 4 percent. What is the operating cash flow for a sensitivity analysis using total fixed costs of $31,000
Answer:
$20,226
Explanation:
expected sales = 11,400 - 12,000 - 12,600
expected sales price = $7.20 - $7.50 - $7.80
expected variable cost = $3.072 - $3.20 - $3.328
total fixed costs = $31,000
if you use an excel spreadsheet you can calculate all the different possible simulations and combine all the expected sales x 3 different price levels x 3 different variable costs and 1 fixed cost. Once you get all the 27 possible solutions, you just get the average.

Micro Miller Company’s budgeted sales for April were estimated at $700,000, sales commissions at 4% of sales, and the sales manager's salary at $80,000. Shipping expenses were estimated at 1% of sales and miscellaneous selling expenses were estimated at $1,000, plus 0.5% of sales. Determine the budgeted selling expenses on a flexible budget for April.
Answer:
$119,500
Explanation:
Solution:
Recall that
The budgeted sales for Micro Miller company = $700,000,
Sales commissions of = 4%
The salary of sales manager = $80,000.
Now,
Since Budgeted Sales is $700,000
Then
sales commissions is calculated as follows:
Sales Commission=0.04*700000(A)= 28000
Thus,
Sales Manager's Salary(B) = $80,000
Hence,
The shipping expenses = 0.01*700000 = $7000
Miscellaneous selling expenses becomes
Fixed = 1000
Variable =3500 700000 * 0. 5 = 119500
The budgeted selling expenses on a flexible budget for April is $119,500.
The calculation is as follows:Sales commission $28,000 (4% of $700,000)
Sales manager salary $80,000
Shipping expenses $7,000 (1% of $700,000)
Miscellaneous selling expenses
Fixed $1,000
Variable $3,500 (0.5% of $700,000)
Budgeted selling expenses $119,500
Therefore we can conclude that The budgeted selling expenses on a flexible budget for April is $119,500.

Instructions: a. Calculate the breakeven point in units .(20 points) b. Comfort Homeless Inc. increases its selling price from $48 a bed to $49.95 a bed. Calculate the new breakeven points in units. (20 points) c. Find the new breakeven point in units if the cost to produce the beds will decrease to $19 each because a new supplier was found when purchasing the raw materials. (20 points) d. Comfort Homeless Inc. is considering selling mattresses. It only expects to sell one mattress for every bed it sells. Comfort Homeless Inc. can purchase the mattresses for $5 each and sell them for $9 each. Total fixed cost should remain the same at $16,000 per month. Calculate the breakeven point in units for beds and mattresses. (40 points)
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price per unit= $48
Unitary variable cost= $6
Total fixed costs= $16,000
A)
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 16,000/ (48 - 6)
Break-even point in units= 381 units
B) Selling price= $49.95 a bedpoints
Break-even point in units= 16,000/ (49.95 - 6)
Break-even point in units= 364 units
C) Unitary variable cost= 6 - 3= 3
Break-even point in units= 16,000 / (48 - 3)
Break-even point in units= 356 units
D) Matresses= 1
Beds= 1
Proportions of sales:
Matreses= 0.5
Beds= 0.5
Selling price per matress= $9
Unitary variable cost= $5
Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin ratio
Weighted average contribution margin ratio= (weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary variable cost)
Weighted average contribution margin ratio= (0.5*9 + 0.5*48) - (0.5*5 + 0.5*6)
Weighted average contribution margin ratio= $23
Break-even point (units)= 16,000/23
Break-even point (units)= 696 units

Explanation:
Sheffield Corp. issued $7080000 of 11%, ten-year convertible bonds on July 1, 2020 at 96.1 plus accrued interest. The bonds were dated April 1, 2020 with interest payable April 1 and October 1. Bond discount is amortized semiannually on a straight-line basis. On April 1, 2021, $1416000 of these bonds were converted into 600 shares of $20 par value common stock. Accrued interest was paid in cash at the time of conversion. If "interest payable" were credited when the bonds were issued, what should be the amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020
Answer:
The amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 is $194,700
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
Bond face value=$7,080,000
interest rate=11%
There are 3 months interest recognized from july to september, therefore, to calculate the amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 we would have to make the following calculation:
amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020=$7,080,000*11%*3 months / 12 months
amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020=$194,700
The amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 is $194,700
The Red Wolf Society, a nongovernmental not-for-profit organization, receives numerous contributed hours from volunteers during its busy season. Tom, a clerk at the local government utility’s office, volunteered ten hours per week for 8 weeks transferring wolf food from the port to the wolf shelter. His rate of pay at the utility office is $20 per hour, and the prevailing wage rate for laborers is $15 per hour. What amount of contribution revenue should Red Wolf Society record for this service? Multiple Choice $1,200 $400 $1,600 $0
Answer:
$1,600
Explanation:
Revenue is recognized as and when the control of a good or service is transferred to the customer.
Total Hours = 10 hours × 8 weeks
= 80 hours
Use the rate of pay at the utility office to determine the contribution revenue for Red Wolf Society
Revenue = 80 hours × $20 per hour
= $1,600
Debtors are interested in the times interest earned ratio because they want to a.know the tax effect of lending to a corporation b.be sure their debt is backed by collateral c.know what rate of interest the corporation is paying d.have adequate protection against a potential drop in earnings jeopardizing their interest payments
Answer: d.have adequate protection against a potential drop in earnings jeopardizing their interest payments
Explanation:
The Times Interest Earned Ratio is a measure that allows for the analysis of if a company can keep up it's debt payments.
It is calculated by dividing the Earnings before Interest and Tax by the Interest Expense of the debt.
The higher the number, the better because it means that they can keep up debt payments several times over.
As Debtors therefore, this figure is important because missing a debt payment is very bad for credit ratings and this matrix helps them realise if they can keep paying for debt even if their Earnings drop.
2. Identify the type of scale of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio) appropriate for each of the following types of data.
a. Star ratings of hotels
b. Sales revenues of companies
c. Grades of officers in armed forces
d. House numbers in a street
e. Prices of cars
f. Classes of accommodation on passenger flights
g. Passport numbers
h. Numbers in a rating scale on a questionnaire
i. Index numbers
Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
A Nominal Scale is a scale where variables are grouped and categorized according to certain characteristics. You cannot perform normal mathematical functions on them such as addition, subtraction and the like.
Ordinal Scales are like nominal scale but in this case the variables can be ranked. You can have a first position and a last position.
An Interval scale is numeric and as such can be ordered. You can also perform mathematical functions on them. Interval scales have no true zero and an example is Temperature. That's why temperature can drop to the negatives.
A Ratio Scale is in many ways like an Interval Scale. The main distinguishing factor is that a Ratio Scale has a true 0. This means that at there is no number before 0 and at 0 level, the variable is considered finished.
Classifying the above therefore,
a. Star ratings of hotels.
ORDINAL because they can be ranked.
b. Sales revenues of companies.
RATIO because there is a true 0. At $0, there is no revenue.
c. Grades of officers in armed forces.
ORDINAL as it can be ranked.
d. House numbers in a street.
NOMINAL as the street numbers don't mean a house is higher ranked than another.
e. Prices of cars.
RATIO as there is a true zero. A car at $0 is free. Price cannot be below $0.
f. Classes of accommodation on passenger flights.
ORDINAL as it can be ranked according to treatment in the various classes.
g. Passport numbers.
NOMINAL as the different passport numbers are simply used for identification and cannot rank people.
h. Numbers in a rating scale on a questionnaire.
ORDINAL because the variables can be ranked from top to bottom.
i. Index numbers.
ORDINAL if the index can be ranked.
Use the following information for Problems 35 through 40 A potential investor is seeking to invest $1,000,000 in a venture, which currently has 2 million shares held by its founders, and is targeting a 50% return five years from now. The venture is expected to produce 1 million dollars in income per year at year 5. It is known that a similar venture recently produced $2,000,000 in income and sold shares to the public for $20,000,000. What is the percent ownership of our venture that must be sold in order to provide the venture investor’s target return?
Answer:
0.3797 or 37.97%
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
Wants Rate on return on investment = 50%
Expected value of return on investment = invested amount × (1+g)^t
= $1,000,000 × (1+50%)^5
= $1,000,000 × 7.59375
= $7,593,750
Similar venture would achieve valuation of $20,000,000 for $2,000,000. We can expect that company would achieve similar valuation of $20,000,000 in 5 years from now.
Investor’s share value at 5 years = $7,593,750 ÷ $20,000,000
= 0.3797 or 37.97%
30. Oriole, Inc. leased equipment from Tower Company under a 4-year lease requiring equal annual payments of $254,152, with the first payment due at lease inception. The lease does not transfer ownership, nor is there a bargain purchase option. The equipment has a 4 year useful life and no salvage value. Oriole, Inc.’s incremental borrowing rate is 11% and the rate implicit in the lease (which is known by Oriole, Inc.) is 9%. Assuming that this lease is properly classified as a finance lease, what is the amount of Lease Liability reduction recorded in first year after the lease inception?
Answer:
$897,484.
Explanation:
Given:
Annual Payment = $254,152
The following company's average loan rate seems to be 11 per cent as well as the implied cost of the contract recognized by the company is 9 per cent.
Thus, the price implied in the contract that is recognized to the company would be 9 per cent although the contract doesn't often shift possession unless there is a negotiating opportunity to buy.
Let the lease year to Y = 4, and I = 9%
So, current value of the annuity is Y=4, I = 9% i.e., 3.53129
So, the cost documented for the contracted asset at the beginning of the contract [tex]=254,152\times3.53129=897,484[/tex]
Amount documented at the beginning of the contract for such contracted asset = $897,484
(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) James just received an $8,000 inheritance check from the estate of his deceased uncle. James wants to set aside enough money to pay for a trip in five years. If the trip is expected to cost $5,000 and the rate of return is 12 percent per year, how much of the $8,000 must James deposit now to have the $5,000 in five years
Answer:
$2837.13
Explanation:
The account value is multiplied by 1 +12% = 1.12 each year, so at the end of 5 years, it will have been multiplied by 1.12^5. For some investment P, we want ...
5000 = P×1.12^5
5000/1.12^5 = P ≈ $2837.13
James must deposit about $2837.13 now to have the required amount in 5 years.
Lamar Printing Company determines that a printing press used in its operations has suffered a permanent impairment in value because of technological changes. An entry to record the impairment should A. recognize additional depreciation expense for the period. B. include a credit to the equipment account. C. include a credit to the equipment accumulated depreciation account. D. not be made if the equipment is still being used.
Answer:
C. include a credit to the equipment accumulated depreciation account.
Explanation:
Since Lamar Printing Company determines that a printing press used in its operations has suffered a permanent impairment in value because of technological changes. An entry to record the impairment should include a credit to the equipment accumulated depreciation account.
In Accounting, Depreciation can be defined as the decrease in the value of an asset (factory equipment, logistics tools etc) as a result of wear or tear, within a specific period of time. Depreciation is used for the allocation of cost to tangible assets with respect to its life expentency or within its useful life.
argaryen Corporation has a target capital structure of 70 percent common stock, 5 percent preferred stock, and 25 percent debt. Its cost of equity is 10 percent, the cost of preferred stock is 5 percent, and the pretax cost of debt is 6 percent. The relevant tax rate is 23 percent.a. What is the company’s WACC?
Answer:
WACC = 8.41%
Explanation:
The weighted Average cost of Capital is the average cost of capital for the different sources of long-term capital available to a firm weighted according to the proportion each source of finance bears to the total capital in the pool..
After-tax cost of debt = (1- tax rate) × before tax cost of debt
= (1-0.23)× 6% = 4.6%
Type Cost (%) Weight cost × weight
Equity 10 70 7
Preferred stock 5 5 0.25
Debt 4.6% 25 1.155
Total 100 8.405
WACC = 8.405 / 100 × 100 = 8.41%
WACC = 8.41%
As the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) increases, the multiplier increases. decreases. remains the same. As the marginal propensity to save (MPS) increases, the multiplier decreases. remains the same. increases. If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.40 , what is the multiplier, assuming there are no taxes or imports
Answer: 1. Increases
2. Decreases
3. 1.67
Explanation:
The formula for the Investment Multiplier is,
= 1/ ( 1 - MPC)
From this formula, inferences can therefore be made.
1. As the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) increases, the Multiplier INCREASES.
As the MPC increases, it will reduce the denominator therefore increasing the Multiplier.
2. As the marginal propensity to save (MPS) increases, the multiplier DECREASES.
The Marginal Propensity to Save is ( 1 - MPC) because what isn't consumed is saved.
The MPS is therefore the denominator of the Multiplier equation.
That means then that as it rises, the Multiplier Decreases.
3. The Formula for the Investment Multiplier is, = 1 / ( 1 - MPC)
= 1 / ( 1 - 0.40)
= 1.67
Last year Kruse Corp had $380,000 of assets (which is equal to its total invested capital), $403,000 of sales, $28,250 of net income, and a debt-to-total-capital ratio of 39%. The new CFO believes the firm has excessive fixed assets and inventory that could be sold, enabling it to reduce its total assets and total invested capital to $252,500. The firm finances using only debt and common equity. Sales, costs, and net income would not be affected, and the firm would maintain the same capital structure (but with less total debt). By how much would the reduction in assets improve the ROE (percentage point change)
Answer:
=6.154%
Explanation:
Original New
Assets $380,000 $252,500
Sales $403,000 $403,000
Net income $28,250 $28,250
Debt ratio 39.00% 39.00%
Debt = Assets × debt % = $148,200 $98,475
Equity = Assets − Debt = $231,800 $154,025
ROE = NI/Equity = 12.187% 18.341%
Increase in ROE = 18.341%-12.187%
= 6.154%
Therefore, the reduction in assets improve the ROE (percentage point change) is 6.154%
Lulzbot sells 6,000 units of its product for $500 each. The selling price includes a one-year warranty on parts. It is expected that 3% of the units will be defective and that repair costs will average $50 per unit. In the year of sale, warranty contracts are honored on 120 units for a total cost of $6,000. What amount should Lulzbot accrue on December 31 for estimated warranty costs?
Answer:
$3,000
Explanation:
Warranty expense is an obligation on the business because business is liable to accept the claims of warranty. A estimated percentage of warranty expense is charges as an expense in each period.
Total Sales = $500 x 6,000 units = $3,000,000
Warranty Expense for the year = Sales units x 3% x warranty cost per unit
Warranty Expense for the year = 6,000 x 3% x $50 = $9,000
Recognised warranty cost in the year = 120 units x $50 = $6,000
Accrued Warranty expense = $9,000 - $6,000 = $3,000
The amount should Lulzbot accrue on December 31 for estimated warranty costs is $3,000
The calculation is as follows:
Total Sales = $500 × 6,000 units
= $3,000,000
Warranty Expense for the year = Sales units × 3% × warranty cost per unit
= 6,000 × 3% × $50
= $9,000
Now
Recognised warranty cost in the year = 120 units × $50
= $6,000
So,
Accrued Warranty expense should be
= $9,000 - $6,000
= $3,000

On January 1, 2019, a company issued $401,600 of 10-year, 12% bonds. The interest is payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31. The issue price was $417,153 based on a 10% market interest rate. The effective-interest method of amortization is used. Rounding all calculations to the nearest whole dollar, what is the interest expense for the six-month period ending June 30, 2019?
Answer:
$ 20,857.65
Explanation:
The interest expense for the first interest expense is cash proceeds from the bond issuance multiplied by the 10% market interest rate adjusted for semiannual amount by multiplying by 6 months and dividing by 12 months.
Interest expense=cash proceeds*market interest rate*6/12
cash proceeds is $417,153
market interest rate is 10%
interest expense for the six-month period ending June 30 2019=$417,153*10%*6/12=$ 20,857.65

Answer:
The variable cost per unit sold is closest to $14.85
Explanation:
In order to calculate the variable cost per unit sold we would have to use the following formula:
Total variable cost per unit=(Direct materials+Direct labor+Variable manufacturing overheads+Sales commissions+Variable adminsitrative expenses)
Therefore,Total variable cost per unit=$7.10+$4.00+$2.00+$1.25+$0.50
Total variable cost per unit=$14.85
The variable cost per unit sold is closest to $14.85
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
In the late 1990s, the United States experienced very high GDP growth, record low unemployment rates, and virtually nonexistent inflation. Based on the conclusions of the AD/AS model, this combination of good economic results can be explained by a __________.
a. rightward shift of the aggregate demand.
b. leftward shift of the aggregate demand.
c. rightward shift of the short- or long-run aggregate supply.
d. leftward shift of the short- or long-run aggregate supply.
Answer:
d. leftward shift of the short- or long-run aggregate supply.
Explanation:
A smaller labor force would usually lead to a reflection in the leftward shift in both short run aggregate supply and potential GDP ( gross domestic product) of the economy. What this means is it would lead to a lower level of equilibrium with GDP ( gross domestic product) and a higher price level.

During 2022, revenue of $18 million was recognized. Required: 1. Prepare a journal entry to record the 2021 development costs. 2. Calculate the required amortization for 2022. 3. Determine the amount to report for the computer software costs in the December 31, 2022, balance sheet.
Answer:
Dr research and development expense $24,000,000
Dr computer software costs $12,000,000
Cr Cash $36,000,000
Amortization is $3,600,000
Balance sheet balance in 2022 is $8,400,000
Explanation:
The cash of $36 million spent would be credited to cash account as an outflow of cash while $24 million would be debited to research and development expense account with the balance of $12 debited to computer software costs as asset
amortization for 2022=cost of software*revenue in 2022/total estimated revenue=$12,000,000*$18,000,000/$60,000,000=$3,600,00
Amount of computer software at 31 December 2022=$12,000,000-$3,600,000=$ 8,400,000
Further From Center has 11,100 shares of common stock outstanding at a price of $45 per share. It also has 260 shares of preferred stock outstanding at a price of $87 per share. There are 610 bonds outstanding that have a coupon rate of 6.4 percent paid semiannually. The bonds mature in 26 years, have a face value of $1,000, and sell at 106.5 percent of par. What is the capital structure weight of the preferred stock?
Answer:
The capital structure weight of the preferred stock is 0.019
Explanation:
In order to calculate the capital structure weight of the preferred stock we would have to calculate first the total value of all the particulars as follows:
Total value particulars=value common stockv+value preferred stock+value bonds outstanding
value common stock=11,100*$45=$499,500
value preferred stock=260*$87=$22,620
value bonds outstanding=610*($1,000*106.5%)=$649,650
Total value particulars=$499,500+$22,620+$649,650
Total value particulars=$1,171,770
Therefore, the capital structure weight of the preferred stock=value preferred stock/Total value particulars
capital structure weight of the preferred stock=$22,620/$1,171,770
capital structure weight of the preferred stock=0.019
The capital structure weight of the preferred stock is 0.019
g On January 1, you win $50,000,000 in the state lottery. The $50,000,000 prize will be paid in equal installments of $6,250,000 over eight years. The payments will be made on December 31 of each year, beginning on December 31 of this year. If the current interest rate is 12%, determine the present value of your winnings. Use the present value tables in Exhibit 7. Round to the nearest whole dollar. $ Will the present value of your winnings using an interest rate of 12% be more than the present value of your winnings using an interest rate of 5%?
Answer:
Present value = $31,047,749
No. The present value when the interest rate is 12% is less than the present value when the interest rate is 5%
Explanation:
Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows.
Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 8 = $6,250,000
I = 12%
Present value = $31,047,748.54
Present value when interest rate is 5% = $40,395,079.75
The present value when interest rate is 5% is greater than the present value when interest rate is 12%
To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute

Each unit of finished product requires 3 feet of raw materials. The company maintains raw materials inventory equal to 2,000 feet plus 10% of the next month's expected production needs. The raw material used in Dustman Manufacturing Corporation's product costs $4.50 per foot. What is the value of raw material that Dustman Manufacturing should plan on purchasing for the month of February?
Answer: $99,000
Explanation:
Given Data:
Finished products = 1 unit requires 3 feet of material
Raw material inventory = 2000 units + 10% for next month.
Cost of raw materials = $4.50/foot
Therefore:
Since Dustman manufacturing maintains an inventory of 2000 units + 10% for next month.
Total units needed for February would be
= 20,000 units + 10% * 20,000
= 20,000 + 2000
= 22,000 units
Value of raw materials for February
= 22000 units * $4.50
= $99,000

Misty and John formed the MJ Partnership. Misty contributed $50,000 of cash in exchange for her 50% interest in the partnership capital and profits. During the first year of partnership operations, the following events occurred: the partnership had a net taxable income of $20,000; Misty received a distribution of $12,000 cash from the partnership; and Misty had a 50% share in the partnership's $60,000 of recourse liabilities on the last day of the partnership year. Misty's adjusted basis for her partnership interest at year end is:
Answer:
$78,000
Explanation:
The computation of interest at year end is shown below:-
Interest at year end = Cash contribution + Income of partnership + Share of partnership liabilities - Cash from the partnership
= $50,000 + $20,000 × 50% + $60,000 × 50% - $12,000
= $90,000 + $10,000 + $30,000 - $12,000
= $78,000
Therefore for computing the partnership interest at year end we simply applied the above formula by considering all the items given in the question
