Answer:
b) Accept Project R and reject Project Q
Explanation:
We can use the following method to solve the given problem in the question
We are given
Project Q: Initial Cost = $ 257,412
Projected Cash Flows: Yr 1 : $ 123,300 Yr 2 : $ 180,300
Total Present Value of all the Future Cash Flows using 12.2% as Rate of Return
= 123,300/1.122 + 180,300/(1.122*1.122)
= 109,893 + 143,222
= $ 253,115
Profitability Index = Total Present Values of all Cash Inflows / Initial Investment
= 253,115 / 257142 = 0.98
Since the Initial Investment is greater than the Present Value of Cash Inflows, that is, l Profitability Index < 0 the Project should not be selected.
Project R: Initial Cost = $ 345,000
Projected Cash Flows: Yr 1 : $ 184,500 Yr 2 : $ 230,600
Total Present Value of all the Future Cash Flows using 12.2% as Rate of Return
= 184,500/1.122 + 230,600/(1.122*1.122)
= 164,438.5 + 183,178
= $ 347,616.5
Profitability Index = Total Present Values of all Cash Inflows / Initial Investment
= 347,616.5 / 345,000 = 1.01
Since the Initial Investment is lower that the Present Value of the Cash Inflows, that is, Profitability Index > 0 the Project should be selected.
Accept Project R and Reject Project Q, so option B is the correct answer
Minot Corporation is preparing its cash budget for August. The following information is available concerning its accounts receivable: Estimated credit sales for August $ 220,000 Actual credit sales for July $ 167,000 Estimated collections in August for credit sales in August 25 % Estimated collections in August for credit sales in July 70 % Estimated collections in August for credit sales prior to July $ 18,000 Estimated write-offs in August for uncollectible credit sales $ 8,000 Estimated provision for bad debts in August for credit sales in August $ 7,800 Required: What is the estimated amount of cash receipts from accounts receivable collections in August?
Answer:
$189,900
Explanation:
For computation of estimated amount of cash receipts from accounts receivable collections first we need to find out the credit sales in August and credit sales in July which is shown below:-
Credit sales in August = Estimated credit sales × Estimated collections in August for credit sales in August
= $220,000 × 25%
= $55,000
Credit sales in July = Actual credit sales × Estimated collections in August for credit sales in July
= $167,000 × 70%
= $116,900
Total estimated cash receipts from accounts receivable = Credit sales in August +Credit sales in July = Actual credit sales + Credit sales prior to July
= $55,000 + $116,900 + $18,000
= $189,900

Assume there is a decrease in the market demand for a good sold by price-taking firms that are initially producing the profit-maximizing level of output. How will the market adjust over time? Firms will exit the market, causing price to fall until positive profits are eliminated. Firms will exit the market, causing price to rise until losses are eliminated. Firms will enter the market, causing price to rise until losses are eliminated. Firms will enter the market, causing price to fall until positive profits are eliminated.
Answer: Firms will exit the market, causing price to rise until losses are eliminated
Explanation:
When there is a decrease in demand in a Perfectly Competitive Market, firms will have to start producing at a lower Quantity to manage their Marginal cost. This leads to Economic losses on their part in the short run.
In the long run however, should the situation remain the same, the new price would be less than their Average Cost which would deepen Economic losses. Firms would respond by exiting the market in the long run.
As the firms exit, the supply curve shifts left as supply drops. This drop in supply leads to a price rise. The exits will continue until enough firms leave that the market's remaining firms will stop suffering economic losses.
The SP Corporation makes 42,000 motors to be used in the production of its sewing machines. The average cost per motor at this level of activity is: Direct materials $ 10.10 Direct labor $ 9.10 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.75 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70 An outside supplier recently began producing a comparable motor that could be used in the sewing machine. The price offered to SP Corporation for this motor is $25.75. If SP Corporation decides not to make the motors, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost could be avoided. Direct labor is a variable cost in this company. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of making the motors rather than buying them from the outside supplier would be:
Answer:
annual financial advantage, $837,600
Explanation:
Analysis of the Make or Buy Decision - Making
Making Costs
Direct materials $ 10.10×42,000 424,200
Direct labor $ 9.10×42,000 382,200
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.75×42,000 157,500
Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70×42,000 197,400
Total 1,161,300
Buying Costs
Purchase Price $25.75×42,000 1,801,500
Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70×42,000 197,400
Total 1,998,900
It costs $837,600 more to Buy than to make.
Hence the annual financial advantage for the company as a result of making the motors rather than buying them from the outside supplier would be $837,600.
Maritime Sail Makers manufactures sails for sailboats. The company has the capacity to produce 37 comma 000 sails per year and is currently producing and selling 25 comma 000 sails per year. The following information relates to current production: Sales price per unit $ 185 Variable costs per unit: Manufacturing $ 60 Selling and administrative $ 20 Total fixed costs: Manufacturing $ 700 comma 000 Selling and administrative $ 250 comma 000 If a special pricing order is accepted for 5 comma 700 sails at a sales price of $ 160 per unit, fixed costs remain unchanged, and there are no variable selling and administrative costs for this order, what is the change in operating income?
Answer:
Increase in operating income = $456,000
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
Operating Income Statement
Particular Existing New order Total
Current selling 25,000 5,700 30,700
Selling price per unit $185 $160
Manufacturing variable cost per unit $60 $60
Selling and administrative variable cost per unit $20 $20
Contribution margin per unit(CMPU)= $105 $80
(sale price - variable cost)
Contribution margin $2,625,000 $456,000 $3,081,000
(sale units × CMPU)
Manufacturing fixed cost $700,000 $700,000
Selling and administrative fixed cost $250,000 $250,000
Net operating income $1,675,000 $2,131,000
So, Difference in net income are as follows:
Increase in operating income = $2,131,000 - $1,675,000
= $456,000
During April, the production department of a process operations system completed and transferred to finished goods 18,000 units that were in process at the beginning of April and 90,000 units that were started and completed in April. April's beginning inventory units were 100% complete with respect to materials and 40% complete with respect to labor. At the end of April, 30,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to labor. The beginning inventory included materials cost of $107,000 and the production department incurred direct materials cost of $329,000 during the month. Compute the direct materials cost per equivalent unit for the department using the weighted-average method
Answer:
Cost per equivalent unit of materials = $3.16
Explanation:
Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.
Cost per equivalent unit = cost / total equivalent units
Total units completed and transferred out= 18,000 + 90000= 108,000
Items Unit Equivalent unit
Completed units 108,000 100% × 108,000 = 108,000
Closing inventory 30,000 100% × 30,000 = 30,000
Total equivalent unit of material 138,000
Cost per equivalent unit = Total cost/Total equivalent unit
= (107,000 + 329,000) /138,000 units
= $3.16

Marquis Company estimates that annual manufacturing overhead costs will be $900,000. Estimated annual operating activity bases are direct labor cost $500,000, direct labor hours 50,000, and machine hours 100,000. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each activity base. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 10.50% or 10.50.) Overhead rate per direct labor cost enter percentages rounded to 2 decimal places % Overhead rate per direct labor hour $enter a dollar amount rounded to 2 decimal places Overhead rate per machine hour $enter a dollar amount rounded to 2 decimal places
Answer:
Basis Rate
Labour hour $18 per direct labour
Machine hour $9 per machine hour
Budgeted labour cost 180% of labour cost
Explanation:
Predetermined overhead absorption rate=
Estimated Overhead for the period/Estimated activity level
Labour hour basis
Estimated Overhead for the period/Estimated labour hours
= $900,000/50,000
=$18 per direct labour
Machine hour basis
Estimated Overhead for the period/Estimated machine hours
Overhead rate per machine hour = $900,000/100,000 hours
=$9 per machine hour
Direct labour cost basis
Pre-determined overhead rate = Estimated Overhead for the period/Estimated labour cost
=$900,000/($500,000)×100
=180 % of labour cost
Basis Rate
Labour hour =$18 per direct labour
Machine hour =$9 per machine hour
Budgeted labour cost 180% of labour cost
The FI Corporation’s dividends per share are expected to grow indefinitely by 5% per year. a. If this year’s year-end dividend is $8 and the required rate of return is 10% per year, what must the current stock price be according to the DDM? b. If the expected earnings per share are $12, what is the value of the ROE on the firm’s investment opportunities? c. How much is the market paying per share for growth opportunities?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The current stock price is
As we know that
Current stock price = (Dividend) ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)
= ($8) ÷ ( 10% - 5%)
= $160
b. Now the value of the ROE on the firm’s investment opportunities is
Given that
Dividend = $8
And,
The payout ratio = Dividend ÷ Earning per share
= $8 ÷ $12
= 0.666666666666667
And, retention ratio (b) is
= 1- 0.666666666666667
= 0.333333333333333
In addition to it
indefinite growth rate (g) = 5%
So, the ROE is
= Growth rate ÷ retention ratio
= 0.15 ÷ 0.3333
= 15%
c. And, the market paying per share is
PVGO = Price - Earning per share ÷ required rate of return
where,
PVGO = Present Value of Growth Opportunity
So, the market paying per share is
= $160 - $12 ÷ 10%
= $160 - $120
= $40

Explanation:
Kindly check the attached image below to see the step by step explanation to the question above.
Enviro Company issues 8%, 10-year bonds with a par value of $300,000 and semiannual interest payments. On the issue date, the annual market rate for these bonds is 10%, which implies a selling price of 87 1/2. The straight-line method is used to allocate interest expense. 1. Using the implied selling price of 87 ½, what are the issuer's cash proceeds from issuance of these bonds? 2. What total amount of bond interest expense will be recognized over the life of these bonds? 3. What is the amount of bond interest expense recorded on the first interest payment date?
Answer:
1. Issuer's cash is $262,500
2. Total amount of bond interest is $277,500
3. The amount of bond interest expense is $13,875.
Explanation:
1. Issuer's cash = Face Value × Selling Price
Issuer's cash = $300,000 × 87.50%
Issuer's cash = $262,500
2. Discount on bond = $300,000 × 12.5% = $37,500
Interest on bond = $300,000 × 8% = $24,000
Period of bonds= 10 years
Total amount of bond interest = Discount on Bond + (Interest on Bond × period)
Total amount of bond interest = $37,500 + ($24,000 × 10)
Total amount of bond interest = $277,500
3. Discount on bond = $300,000 × 12.5% = $37,500
Interest on bond = $300,000 × 8% = $24,000
Period = 0.5 years
The amount of bond interest expense = (Discount of Bond ÷ 20) + Interest
The amount of bond interest expense = ($37,500 ÷ 20) + ($24,000 × 0.5)
The amount of bond interest expense = $1,875 + $12,000
The amount of bond interest expense = $13,875.
Bramble Inc., which produces a single product, has prepared the following standard cost sheet for one unit of the product. Direct materials (6 pounds at $3.10 per pound) $18.60 Direct labor (4 hours at $10.00 per hour) $40.00 During the month of April, the company manufactures 190 units and incurs the following actual costs. Direct materials purchased and used (2,200 pounds) $7,260 Direct labor (770 hours) $7,623 Compute the total, price, and quantity variances for materials and labor. Total materials variance $ Materials price variance $ Materials quantity variance $ Total labor variance $ Labor price variance $ Labor quantity variance $ Click if you would like to Show Work for this question: Open Show Work LINK TO TEXT LINK TO TEXT
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation of the material price variance is shown below:
= Actual Quantity × (Standard Price - Actual Price)
= $7,260 × (2,200 pounds × $3.10 per pound)
= $440 unfavorable
b. The computation of the material quantity variance is shown below:
= Standard Price × (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)
= $3.10 × (2,200 pounds - (190 units × 6 pounds))
= $3,286 unfavorable
c. Total material variance
= Material price variance + material quantity variance
= $440 unfavorable + $3,286 unfavorable
= $3,726 unfavorable
d. The computation of the labor price variance is shown below:
= Actual Hours × (Actual price - Standard Price)
= $7,623 - (770 hours × $10)
= $77 favorable
e. The computation of the labor quantity variance is shown below:
= Standard Rate × (Actual Hours - Standard hours allowed for actual units)
= $10 × (770 hours - (190 units × 4 hours)
= $100 unfavorable
Total labor variance
= Labor rate variance + labor quantity variance
= $77 favorable + 100 unfavorable
= $23 unfavorable

Explanation:
a) Adjusting entries are end-of-the-period journal entries used to recognize income or expenses that occurred but are not accurately displayed in your records. They are made to comply with the accrual concept and the matching principle, which demand that expenses and income should matched to the period they were incurred, whether paid for or not.
b) The three-sided ledger accounts show the debit, credit, and balance columns. This means that it shows the balance per transaction of any particular account.
c) Mortgage interest is calculated as (6% of $37,200)/12, so as to accrue for one month only. Other expenses are calculated for one month only.
Gilberto Company currently manufactures 50,000 units per year of one of its crucial parts. Variable costs are $2.00 per unit, fixed costs related to making this part are $50,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $40,000 per year. Allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys the part. Gilberto is considering buying the part from a supplier for a quoted price of $3.20 per unit guaranteed for a three-year period. Calculate the total incremental cost of making 50,000 and buying 50,000 units. Should the company continue to manufacture the part, or should it buy the part from the outside supplier
Answer:
Net incremental cost of buying (10,000). \
Gilberto Company should produced the parts internally . Doing so would saving its $10,000 per year
Explanation:
The relevant cash flow from the accepting the offer of the outside suppliers include
Extra variable cost of buying
Savings in direct fixed manufacturing overhead

The formular to find the receivable turn over ratio is
= net credit sales/average.
account receivable
The values given are:
Net credit sales for the year=$252,000
Company account receivable balance at the beginning of the year= $48,000
Company account receivable balance at the end of the year= $58,000
To find the average account receivable we will sum both balance and divide by 2
= 48,000+58,000/2
= 106,000/2
= $53,000
Average account receivable is $53,000
Therefore, receivable turn over ratio is
= $252,000/$53,000
= 4.8
Thus, Beverage international's receivables turn over ratio is 4.8
During 2017, Woods Company purchased 80,000 shares of Holmes Corporation common stock for $1,260,000 as an equity investment. The fair value of these shares was $1,200,000 at December 31, 2017. Woods sold all of the Holmes stock for $17 per share on December 3, 2018, incurring $56,000 in brokerage commissions.
Required:
1. Woods Company should report a realized gain on the sale of stock in 2018 of ____________.
Answer:
The multiple choices are as follows:
a.$44,000.
b.$100,000.
c.$104,000.
d.$160,000.
Option A,$44,000 is correct
Explanation:
In the year 2017,an unrealized loss of $60,000 was recorded on the investment i.e fair value at year end of $1,200,000 minus the cost of the investment of $1,260,000
In the year 2018,the total cash proceeds from sale of investment=($17*80,000)-$56,000=$1,304,000
The realized gain on sale of stock in 2018=cash proceeds-fair value-unrealized loss of $60,000=$1,304,000-$1,200,000-$60,000 =$44,000

Method A assumes simple interest over final fractional periods, while Method B assumes simple discount over final fractional periods. The annual effective rate of interest is 20%. Find the ratio of the present value of a payment to be made in 1.5 years computed under method A to that computed under Method B.
Answer:
The answer is "1.1"
Explanation:
In the case of a single Interest, the principal value is determined as follows:
[tex]\ I = Prt \\\ A = P + I\\A = P(1+rt) \\\\A = amount \\P= principle\\r = rate\\t= time[/tex]
In case of discount:
[tex]D = Mrt \\P = M - D \\P = M(1-rt)\\\\Where, D= discount \\M =\ Maturity \ value \\[/tex]
Let income amount = 100, time = 1.5 years, and rate =20 %.
Formula:
A = P(1+rt)
A =P+I
by putting vale in the above formula we get the value that is = 76.92, thus method A will give 76.92 value.
If we calculate discount then the formula is:
P = M(1-rt)
M = 100 rate and time is same as above.
[tex]P = 100(1-0.2 \times 1.5) \\P = 100 \times \frac{70}{100} \\P = 70[/tex]
Thus Method B will give the value that is 70
calculating ratio value:
[tex]ratio = \frac{\ method\ A \ value} {\ method \ B \ value}\\\\\Rightarrow ratio = \frac{76.92}{70}\\\\\Rightarrow ratio = \frac{7692}{7000}\\\\\Rightarrow ratio = 1.098 \ \ \ \ or \ \ \ \ 1.[/tex]
Monopoly power runs counter to the public interest because it leads to high prices, resource misallocation, and inefficiency. Antitrust policy is one of the government's instruments for curbing monopoly power and protecting competition.
Suppose that a major tire retailer purchases a major manufacturer's car tires at a discount on the condition that it must also purchase the manufacturer's truck tires. As a result of the agreement, several tire manufacturers lose their market shares and eventually exit the industry. This agreement would explicitly violate which of the following laws?
The Clayton Act of 1914
The Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890
The Robinson–Patman Act of 1936
The Celler–Kefauver Act of 1950
Answer:
C. The Robinson–Patman Act of 1936
Explanation:
The Robinson-Patman Act of 1936 is an amendment to The Clayton Act of 1914, which particularly prohibits price discrimination. Price Discrimination is an act in which distributors or sellers of certain goods, give discounts to people who they seem to benefit more from while smaller shops buy the goods at a costlier price.
The instance where the major tire manufacturer has an agreement to make a price discount with the manufacturer of truck tires is an example of price discrimination, and the consequence is that other markets are affected as they now exit the market. This is a clear contravention of the Robinson-Patman Act of 1936.
For the year ended December 31, 2016, Norstar Industries reported net income of $655,000. At January 1, 2016, the company had 900,000 common shares outstanding. The following changes in the number of shares occurred during 2016: Apr. 30 Sold 60,000 shares in a public offering. May 24 Declared and distributed a 5% stock dividend. June 1 Issued 72,000 shares as part of the consideration for the purchase of assets from a subsidiary. Required: Compute Norstar's earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Answer:
1.272 per share
Explanation:
The computation of earnings per share is shown below:-
Weighted Average number of Common shares outstanding = outstanding common shares ÷ Net income
= 900,000 ÷ $707,810
= 1.272 per share
Where,
Net Income = Preferred Dividends ÷ Weighted Average number of Common shares outstanding
= $655,000 ÷ (1 + 0.05) + ( 60,000 × 8 months ÷ 12 months) × 1.05 + (72,000 × 7 months ÷ 12 months)
= $623,810 + 40,000 × 1.05 + 42,000
= $623,810 + 42,000 + 42,000
= 707,810
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 Q1 2018, CNA Companies reports the following transactions: Capital expenditures of $15 million Loss on sale of equipment of $6 million Debt principal repayment of $8 million Preferred dividend of $2 million Common dividend of $3 million Share buyback of $4 million Ignoring the effect of taxes, what is the impact of these transactions on retained earnings
Answer:
-$11 million
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the impact of transactions on retained earnings by using following formula:-
Impact of transactions on retained earnings = - common dividend - preferred dividend - loss on sale of equipment
= -$3 million - $2 million - $6 million
= - $11 million
All three items should be deducted as it has a negative impact on the retained earnings
Current liabilities are obligations that are reasonably expected to be paid from Existing Creation of Other Current Assets Current Liabilities a. No No b. Yes Yes c. Yes No d. No Yes
Answer:
The answer is option C) Yes No
Explanation:
Current liabilities are obligations that are reasonably expected to be paid from Existing Creation of Other Current Assets and not current liabilities.
This is because, Current liabilities are short term liabilities due within a year. They include accounts payable, short term debt and overdraft. This means that payment can only be generated by current assets.
Current assets are also short term assets with a life span of on year. They include accounts receivable an cash.
Therefore, Yes, Current liabilities are obligations that are reasonably expected to be paid from Existing Creation of Other Current Assets.
And No, Current liabilities are obligations that are not expected to be paid from Existing Creation of Other Current Liabilities.
Job 397 was recently completed. The following data have been recorded on its job cost sheet. Direct materials $59,400 Direct labor-hours 1,254 DLHs Direct labor wage rate $11 per DLH Number of units completed 3,300 units The company applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $37 per direct labor-hour. Required: What's the unit product cost that would appear on the job cost sheet for this job
Answer:
$36.24
Explanation:
The computation of unit product cost is shown below:-
Unit product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead) ÷ Unit completed
= ($59,400 + (1254 × $11) + (1254 × $37)) ÷ 3,300
= ($59,400 + $13,794 + $46,398) ÷ 3,300
= $119,592 ÷ 3,300
= $36.24
Therefore for computing the units product cost we simply applied the above formula.
Flychucker Corporation is evaluating an extra dividend versus a share repurchase. In either case $19,000 would be spent. Current earnings are $1.40 per share, and the stock currently sells for $50 per share. There are 5,000 shares outstanding. Ignore taxes and other imperfections. a. Evaluate the two alternatives in terms of the effect on the price per share of the stock and shareholder wealth per share
Answer:
Alternative I: (Extra dividend)
Price per share is $ 46.20
Shareholder wealth per share is $ 42.40
Alternative II: ( Share repurchase)
For share repurchase, the price per share and the shareholder wealth is equal to the stock price.
Explanation:
Alternative I: (Extra dividend)
Amount spent = $19,000
Outstanding shares = 5,000 shares
Stock price = $50
Price per share = Stock price - [tex]\frac{Amount spent}{Outstanding Shares}[/tex]
= $50 - [tex]\frac{19,000}{5,000}[/tex] = $50 - $3.8
= $ 46.20
Shareholder wealth per share = Price per share - [tex]\frac{Amount spent}{Outstanding Shares}[/tex]
= $46.20 - $3.8
=$ 42.40
Alternative II: ( Share repurchase)
For share repurchase, the price per share and the shareholder wealth is equal to the stock price.
