Answer:
$3,135 unfavorable
$9,937.50 unfavorable
Explanation:
The formula and the computation of the direct labor price and efficiency variance is shown below:
Direct labor price variance
= (Standard rate - Actual rate) × Actual hours of production
= ($15- $145,600 ÷ 9,500 hours ) × 9,500 labor hour worked
= ($15 - $15.33) × 9,500 labor hour worked
= $3,135 unfavorable
Labor efficiency variance is
= (Actual production - standard production) × standard rate per unit
= (6,600 units - 9,500 hours ÷ 1.6 hours) × $15
= (6,600 units - 5,937.0) × $15
= $9,937.50 unfavorable
Since the actual hours is more than the standard one so it would lead to unfavorable variance
On December 31, 2017, Berclair Inc. had 560 million shares of common stock and 5 million shares of 9%, $100 par value cumulative preferred stock issued and outstanding. On March 1, 2018, Berclair purchased 168 million shares of its common stock as treasury stock. Berclair issued a 5% common stock dividend on July 1, 2018. Four million treasury shares were sold on October 1. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2018, was $1,050 million.
Also outstanding at December 31 were 30 million incentive stock options granted to key executives on September 13, 2013. The options were exercisable as of September 13, 2017, for 30 million common shares at an exercise price of $56 per share. During 2018, the market price of the common shares averaged $70 per share.
Required:
a. Compute Berclair's basic and diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Answer:
Basic Earnings Per Share = $1,44
Diluted Earnings Per Share = $1,38
Explanation:
Basic Earnings Per Share = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock / Weighted Average Number of Common Shares
Calculation of Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2018, $1,050,000,000
Less cumulative preferred stock dividend ($45,000,000)
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock $1,005,000,000
Calculation of Weighted Average Number of Common Shares
1 January Outstanding Common Shares 560,000,000
March 1 - Purchases (10/12×168,000,000) 140,000,000
October 1 - Sold (3/12×4,000,0000) (1,000,000)
Weighted Average Number of Common Shares 699,000,000
Basic Earnings Per Share = $1,005,000,000/699,000,000
= $1,44
Diluted Earnings Per Share = Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock / Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Shares
Calculation of Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Shares
Weighted Average Number of Common Shares (Basic) 699,000,000
Incentive Stock Options 30,000,000
Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Shares 729,000,000
Diluted Earnings Per Share = $1,005,000,000/ 729,000,000
= $1,38

g On July 1, 2019, Sheffield Corp. issued 9% bonds in the face amount of $12400000, which mature on July 1, 2025. The bonds were issued for $11859948 to yield 10%, resulting in a bond discount of $540052. Sheffield uses the effective-interest method of amortizing bond discount. Interest is payable annually on June 30. At June 30, 2021, Sheffield's unamortized bond discount should be
Answer:
$393,063
Explanation:
The bond is issued on discount when the issuance price is less than the face value of the bond. The discount is expensed over the bond period until maturity. It is added to the interest expense value to expense it.
Unamortized Discount is the discount balance which has not been expensed or discount balance for outstanding period of the bond to maturity.
Discount Balance = $540,052
Date Interest Paid Interest Expense Amortization Book Value

This will cause a the aggregate curve to the .
Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
Increase in value of dollar has made the foreign steel (a major commodity used in production) cheaper for American producers.
This will reduce the cost of production of American Producers and would increase their profit-margin.
This will induce US firms to produce more and therefore there will be increase in short-run aggregate supply.
So, the given scenario will involve short-run aggregate supply curve and would shift the curve to the right.

Explanation:
We can consider the case where wine producers in Chile ask the government to tax imported wines from France with a tax. They consider that this tax would increase both the State's tax revenue and employment in the Chilean wine industry. What kind of economic argument is this in relation to international trade? Do you agree or not with the argument presented by wine producers in Chile? If the state government adopts this position, does it consider it to be good economic policy or not? Briefly explain your answers using the concepts of international trade discussed in your Textbook.
Answer:
If the Government executes taxes on lavender trade from France (therefore creating French wine beloved than national wine), the local wine manufacturers would take pleasure in such a strategy because it would create French wine much economical (since it'll value extra) and therefore doubtless growth in local wine drinking. This might additional because additional service chances within the national wine region and conjointly rise the Government's government revenue (income from taxes on the wine trade). Such a procedure is hidden wanting i.e. an advocate procedure in expressions of Global trade wherever the govt. is protective the benefits of the native wine manufacturers by heavy imports.
If the Chilean wine trade isn't terribly inexpensive in relations of value, feature etc. and remains at an emergent phase then it's vital to safeguard the local trade from global competition.
On January 1, 2021, Legion Company sold $250,000 of 6% ten-year bonds. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds were sold for $163,976, priced to yield 12%. Legion records interest at the effective rate. Legion should report bond interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021, in the amount of: (Round your answer to the nearest dollar amount.)
Answer:
The bond interest expense to be shown in profit or loss as t 30 June 2021
$9,838.56
Explanation:
The bond interest expense is the actual finance cost of using the funds made available by bondholders while the coupon payment is the portion of the finance cost paid to them periodically.
Interest expense=bonds cash proceeds*yield to maturity*6/12
bonds cash proceeds is $163,976
yield to maturity is 12%
interest expense=$163,976*12%*6/12=$9,838.56
Answer:
$9,838.56
Explanation:
Interest Expense using effective interest rate method can determined by multiplying the carrying value of the bond and yield rate of the bond because the bonds issued on the discount has different interest expense than the interest payment made to bond holder.
As the interest is paid semiannually the interest expense will be calculated for only 6 months.
Interest expense=Cash proceeds on issuance of bond x YTM x 6/12
As per given data
Cash proceeds are $163,976
YTM is 12%
Interest expense=$163,976 x 12% x 6/12=$9,838.56
The 2016 financial statement of Willamette Valley Vineyards reported Cost of goods sold of $7,204,884. Note 3 to the financial statements reported that Inventories consisted of: 2016 2015 Winemaking and packaging materials $ 817,836 $ 690,292 Work-in-process 6,634,014 6,058,701 Finished goods 4,518,806 3,883,469 Total inventories $11,970,656 $10,632,462 The inventory turnover for 2016 was:__________
a, 0.57
b. 0.64
c. 0.59
d. 1.71
Answer:
b. 0.64
Explanation:
The computation of the inventory turnover for the year 2016 is shown below:
Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average inventories
where,
Average inventories is
= ($11,970,656 + $10,632,462) ÷ 2
= $11,301,559
And the cost of goods sold is $7,204,884
So, the Inventory turnover is
= $7,204,884 ÷ $11,301,559
= 0.64 times
We simply applied the above formula
Fallow Corporation has two separate profit centers. The following information is available for the most recent year: West Division East Division Sales (net) $ 400,000 $ 550,000 Salary expense 46,000 60,000 Cost of goods sold 140,000 255,000 The West Division occupies 10,000 square feet in the plant. The East Division occupies 6,000 square feet. Rent, which was $ 80,000 for the year, is an indirect expense and is allocated based on square footage. Compute operating income for the West Division.
Answer:
Operating Income WEST division 164,000
Explanation:
Fallow Corporation
Income Statement
West Division East Division
Sales (net) $ 400,000 $ 550,000
Cost of goods sold 140,000 255,000
Gross Profit 260,000 295,000
Less Indirect Expenses
Salary expense 46,000 60,000
Rent * 50000 30,000
Operating Income 164,000 205,000
Rent is apportioned on the basis of the square footage.The west division has 10,000 square feet in the plant. The East Division occupies 6,000 square feet.
Rent of West Division = Area of the West/ Total Area (* RENT)
= 10,000/16,000* 80,000= $ 50,000
Rent of East Division = 6,000/16,000* 80,000= $ 30,000
(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) Assume you can invest money at a 14 percent rate of return. How much money must be invested now to be able to withdraw $5,000 from this investment at the end of each year for eight years, the first withdrawal occurring one year from now
Answer:
the original amount invested = $285,714.29
Explanation:
Let original amount invested be x
Amount to be withdrawn per year = $5,000
Total number of years = 8
Total amount to be withdrawn = 5,000 × 8 = $40,000
Next, we are told that 14% return on x is realized,
∴ 14% return on x = $40,000
0.14 × x = 40,000
x = 40,000 ÷ 0.14 = $285,714.29
Therefore, the original amount invested = $285,714.29

Lidell Inc. budgeted production of 48,000 personal journals in 20Y6. Each journal requires assembly. Assume that three minutes are required to assemble each journal. If assembly labor costs $13 per hour, determine the direct labor cost budget for 20Y6. Do not round your intermediate calculations but, if required, round your final answer to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
Direct labor cost= $31,200
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 48,000 units
Standard time= 3 minutes per unit
Rate= $13 per hour
First, we need to calculate the number of hours required:
The proportion of minuted per hour= 3/60= 0.05
Number of hours= 48,000*0.05= 2,400 hours
Now, the direct labor cost:
Direct labor cost= 2,400*13= $31,200
A Company manufactures clay molded pottery on an assembly line. Its standard costing system uses two cost categories, direct materials and conversion costs. Each product must pass through the Molding Department and the Finishing Department. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the production process. Conversion costs are allocated evenly throughout production. Data for the Assembly Department for August 2017 are: Work in process, beginning inventory: 3000 units Direct materials (100% complete) Conversion costs (40% complete) Units started during August 695 units Work in process, ending inventory: 500 units Direct materials (100% complete) Conversion costs (65% complete) Costs for August: Standard costs for Assembly: Direct materials $15 per unit Conversion costs $35.50 per unit Work in process, beginning inventory: Direct materials $12,400 Conversion costs $9450 What is the balance in ending work-in-process inventory
Answer:
Ending work-in-process inventory is $19,037.50
Explanation:
First Determine the Equivalent Units in ending work-in-process inventory in terms of direct materials and conversion costs
Direct materials ( 500 units × 100%) = 500 units
Conversion costs (500 units × 65%) = 325 units
Then determine the Value of ending work-in-process inventory
Direct materials ( 500 units × $15) = $ 7,500.00
Conversion costs (325 units × $35.50) = $ 11,537.50
Total = $19,037.50
Conclusion
Therefore, ending work-in-process inventory is $19,037.50
Project Q has an initial cost of $257,412 and projected cash flows of $123,300 in Year 1 and $180,300 in Year 2. Project R has an initial cost of $345,000 and projected cash flows of $184,500 in Year 1 and $230,600 in Year 2. The discount rate is 12.2 percent and the projects are independent. Which project(s), if either, should be accepted based on its profitability index value?
a) Reject both Project Q and R
b) Accept Project R and reject Project Q
c) Accept either Project R or Project Q, but not both
d) Accept Project Q and reject Project R
e) Accept both Project Q and R
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
Crimson Inc. recorded credit sales of $779,000, of which $590,000 is not yet due, $110,000 is past due for up to 180 days, and $79,000 is past due for more than 180 days. Under the aging of receivables method, Crimson Inc. expects it will not collect 3% of the amount not yet due, 14% of the amount past due for up to 180 days, and 21% of the amount past due for more than 180 days. The allowance account had a debit balance of $3,500 before adjustment. After adjusting for bad debt expense, what is the ending balance of the allowance account
Answer:
$49,690 credit balance
Explanation:
total credit sales = $590,000
past due up to 180 days = $110,000
past due for more than 180 days = $79,000
Crimson expects to not collect:
3% of credit sales not due yet = $590,000 x 3% = $17,70014% of credit sales past due up to 180 days = $110,000 x 14% = $15,400 21% of credit sales past due for more than 180 days = $79,000 x 21% = $16,590total = $49,690Allowance for uncollectible amounts has $3,500 debit balance
the adjusting entry should be:
Dr Bad debt expense 53,190
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts 53,190
The ending balance = $53,190 - $3,500 = $49,690
Swift Company purchased a machine on January 1, 2010, for $500,000. At the date of acquisition, the machine had an estimated useful life of six years with no salvage. The machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis. On January 1, 2013, Swift determined, as a result of additional information, that the machine had an estimated useful life of eight years from the date of acquisition with no salvage. An accounting change was made in 2013 to reflect this additional information. What is the amount of depreciation expense on this machine that should be charged in Swift's income statement for the year ended December 31, 2013
Answer:
Swift Company should charge depreciation expense of $55,556 to income statement for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Explanation:
Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($500,000 - 0) / 6 years = $83,333 yearly depreciation expense.
Accumulated depreciation as at end of 20212 = $83,333 x 2 = $166,667
Net book value (NBV) becomes $500,000 - $166,667 = $333,333
New depreciation is ($333,333 - $0) / 6 years = $55,556 yearly depreciation expenses from 2013 onward.
In the process of reconciling its bank statement for April, Donahue Enterprises' accountant compiles the following information: Cash balance per company books on April 30 $ 6,245 Deposits in transit at month-end $ 1,360 Outstanding checks at month-end $ 680 Bank charge for printing new checks $ 75 Note receivable and interest collected by bank on Donahue’s behalf $ 710 A check paid to Donahue during the month by a customer is returned by the bank as NSF $ 540 The adjusted cash balance per the books on April 30 is:
Answer:
$5,660.

Swifty Corporation had 210000 shares of common stock, 19400 shares of convertible preferred stock, and $603000 of 9% convertible bonds outstanding during 2021. The preferred stock is convertible into 40700 shares of common stock. During 2021, Swifty paid dividends of $0.54 per share on the common stock and $1.80 per share on the preferred stock. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 45 shares of common stock. The net income for 2021 was $364000 and the income tax rate was 35%.
Required:
1. Basic earnings per share for 2021 is ___________(rounded to the nearest penny).
Answer:
Earning per share = $1.40
Explanation:
Earning per share = Income available to ordinary shareholders / Number of shares available
$
Net Income 364.000
Preferred dividend (19,400× 0.54) (34920 )
329,080
Number of shares(see workings) 237,135
Earning per share = $329,080 /237,135 units = $1.39
Number of shares = (603,000/1000)*45 + 210,000 = 237,135 units
Earning per share = $1.40
Financial Crisis
Suppose that banks are less able to raise funds and so lend less. Consequently, because people and households are less able to borrow, they spend less at any given price level than they would otherwise. The crisis is persistent so lending should remain depressed for some time. Refer to Financial Crisis. In the long run, if the Fed does not respond, the change in price expectations created by the crisis shifts:
a. short-run aggregate supply right.
b. aggregate demand right.
c. aggregate demand left.
d. short-run aggregate supply left.
Answer:
The correct answer to the given question is “D – Short-Run Aggregate Supply Left”
Explanation:
While the problem is there for offering and deriving, less asset is being completed on the budget. Thus due to the lack of capital. The investment standard growing will decrease and therefore as an outcome, short run cumulative source curve will move to the left.
n the Month of March, Chester Corporation received orders of 180 units at a price of $15.00 for their product Cid. Chester uses the accrual method of accounting and offers 30 day credit terms. Chester delivers 120 units in March and the balance of 60 units in April. They received payment for 60 units in March, 60 units in April, and 60 units in May. How much revenue is recognized on the March income statement from this order? How much in the April Income statement? (Answer in thousands)

PC.54 Claire & Dee's Tire Factory in Rexburg provides a free tire-rotation service for customers who purchase tires from them. For years this process took an average employee about 20 minutes to perform. Since they make no additional revenue from this service, they would like to make this process as efficient (or productive) as possible. Recognizing this challenge, management and key employees analyzed the process and made some time-saving changes. Over the course of a month they trained all employees on the new process, and after doing so, an average employee could rotate a set of four tires in about 15 minutes.In this case, what is the output that should be used for productivity calculations?
Answer:
15 minutes which result in 4 sets of tires per hour
Explanation:
Labor productivity is determined as the total output produced by an average worker during one hour. In this case, to determine the productivity of Claire & Dee's employees, you would need to determine how many sets of tires can an employee change in one hour = 60 minutes / 15 minutes = 4.
The output that should be used for productivity calculations is the new productivity improvement rate of 8%.
Data and Calculations:
Old efficiency rate = 33% (20/60 x 100)
New efficiency rate = 25% (15/60 x 100)
Productivity Improvement Rate
The new productivity improvement rate is 8% (5/60 x 100) or (33% - 25%), showing that workers can provide 4 free tire rotation services for customers in an hour, unlike the 3 free tire rotation services they provided under the old regime.
Thus, the output that should be used for productivity calculations is the new productivity improvement rate of 8%.
