Answer:
When workers already have a large quantity of capital, giving them an additional unit of capital will not increase productivity.
Explanation:
In simple words, In economics, decreasing returning relates to the phenomenon of reduction in a manufacturing process 's total efficiency as the volume of one particular production factor decreases progressively, whereas the numbers of many other capital resources stay unchanged.
For eg, a manufacturing plant hires employees to make its goods, and the corporate works at an optimum level eventually. With several other persistent output variables, the introduction of additional staff above the optimal point would lead in less productive operations.
Hollis, an individual, makes a cash contribution to Orchestra Y, a nongovernmental not-for-profit organization, unrestricted as to use and lacking any conditions which must be met before it can be used. Hollis considers the cash contribution an investment in the cultural future of the city where Orchestra Y is located. Hollis’s contribution should be reported in Orchestra Y’s statement of cash flows as an inflow from Multiple Choice Capital and related financing activities Operating activities Investing activities Financing activities
Answer:
Operating activities
Explanation:
Operating activity of a business is the function that a business performs that is directly related to provision of goods and services to customers. It is the core business activity.
For example a car production company has manufacturing as its core operating activity.
In this scenario Hollis, an individual, makes a cash contribution to a nongovernmental not-for-profit organisation and is considered as an investment in the cultural future of the city where Orchestra Y is located.
Since the contribution is for investment in the community and this is a core function of the NGO, it can be reported as cash flow from its operating activities
The following information is available for the year ended December 31: Beginning raw materials inventory $ 11,600 Raw materials purchases 87,200 Ending raw materials inventory 11,000 Manufacturing supplies expense 840 The amount of raw materials used in production for the year is:
Answer:
Direct Material used= $87,800
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning raw materials inventory $ 11,600
Raw materials purchase 87,200
Ending raw materials inventory 11,000
To calculate the raw material used, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory
DM used= 11,600 + 87,200 - 11,000
DM used= $87,800
Flyaway Travel Company reported net income for 2021 in the amount of $105,000. During 2021, Flyaway declared and paid $3,625 in cash dividends on its nonconvertible preferred stock. Flyaway also paid $25,000 cash dividends on its common stock. Flyaway had 55,000 common shares outstanding from January 1 until 25,000 new shares were sold for cash on April 1, 2021. What is 2021 basic earnings per share?
Answer:
The 2021 basic earnings per share is $1.68
Explanation:
In order to calculate the 2021 basic earnings per share we would have to use the following formula:
Basic EPS = (Net income - Preferred Dividend) / Weighted average common shares outstanding
According to given data:
Net income=$105,000
Preferred Dividend=$3,625
The calculation of the Weighted average common shares outstanding would be as follows:
Period Months Number of shares outstanding Weighted Number
A B A*B /12
Jan 1 to Mar 31 3 55,000 13,750
April 1 to Dec. 31 9 80,000 (55,000 +25,000) 60,000
(40000+10000)
The Weighted average common shares is 60,000
Therefore, Basic EPS = (Net income - Preferred Dividend) / Weighted average common shares outstanding
Basic EPS= ($105,000 - $3,625) / 60,000
Basic EPS=$1.68
The budgeted income statement presented below is for Burkett Corporation for the coming fiscal year. If Burkett Corporation is able to achieve the budgeted level of sales, its margin of safety in dollars would be?
Sales (50,000 units) $1,000,000
Costs:
Direct materials $270,000
Direct labor 240,000
Fixed factory overhead 100,000
Variable factory overhead 150,000
Fixed marketing costs 110,000
Variable marketing costs 50,000 920,000
Pretax income $80,000
Answer:
Margin of safety= $275,862
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales (50,000 units) $1,000,000
Costs:
Direct materials $270,000
Direct labor 240,000
Fixed factory overhead 100,000
Variable factory overhead 150,000
Fixed marketing costs 110,000
Variable marketing costs 50,000
First, we need to calculate the total variable costs and total fixed costs:
Total variable costs= 270,000 + 240,000 + 150,000 + 50,000
Total variable costs= 710,000
Total fixed costs= 100,000 + 110,000= 210,000
Now, we need to determine the break-even point in dollars:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 210,000 / [(1,000,000 - 710,000)/1,000,000]
Break-even point (dollars)= 210,000/0.29
Break-even point (dollars)= 724,138
Finally, the margin of safety in dollars:
Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)
Margin of safety= 1,000,000 - 724,138
Margin of safety= $275,862
On January 1st, Guarder Consulting enters into a one-year contract with Smith Co. to restructure some of Smith's processes with a goal of cost savings. Smith pays Guarder an up-front fixed fee of $48,000 on January 1st. Guarder will also earn an additional $12,000 bonus if Smith achieves $100,000 of cost savings. Guarder estimates a 70% chance that Smith will achieve $100,000 of cost savings. Assuming that Guarder determines the transaction price as the most likely amount, what amount of revenue will be recorded at the end of the first month
Answer:
$4,700
Explanation:
Fixed fee - $48,000
Conditional bonus - $12,000
Condition for bonus = $100,000 cost saving
Estimate of achieving cost saving = 70%
As Guarder does not have an 100% assurance of meeting the $100,000 cost saving , the bonus will be multiplied by the estimated percentage of achieving it , being the most likely amount
Estimated bonus = 70%* $12,000= $8,400
Total annual contract fee = 48000+ $8,400 = $56,400
Month revenue recognition = 56,400/12 = $4,700
January recognition = $4,700.
Revenue are earned when earned , therefore the January portion of earned revenue is recorded.

Crane Company required production for June is 112000 units. To make one unit of finished product, three pounds of direct material Z are required. Actual beginning and desired ending inventories of direct material Z are 290000 and 310000 pounds, respectively. How many pounds of direct material Z must be purchased
Answer:
Purchases= 356,000 pounds
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 112,000 units.
Standard quantity= 3 pounds of direct material Z
Beginning inventory= 290,000 pounds
Desired ending inventory= 310,000 pounds
To calculate the purchase required for direct material, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 112,000*3 + 310,000 - 290,000
Purchases= 356,000 pounds

Assume that Bethany acquires a competitor's assets on March 31st. The purchase price was $150,000. Of that amount, $125,000 is allocated to tangible assets and $25,000 is allocated to goodwill (a §197 intangible asset). What is Bethany's amortization deduction for the current year? (Round final answer to the nearest whole number.)
Answer:
$1,389
Explanation:
Tangible assets are depreciated, not amortized. Only the $25,000 goodwill will be amortized.
A §197 intangible asset can be amortized over a 15 year period that starts on the month that the intangible asset was acquired. In this case, the amortization expense will include March, so we need to calculate amortization for 10/12 of a year.
The amortization per year = $25,000 / 15 years = $1,667
amortization for year one = amortization per year x number of months = $1,667 x 10/12 = $1,389
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

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

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

Gain on disposal = $197,000
Restructuring gain = $212,200
Explanation:
We need to find the gain on disposal. Let's use:
Gain on disposal = fair value of land - cost of land.
Where,
Fair value = $920,000
Cost of land = $723,000
Therefore,
Gain on disposal = $920,000 - $723,000 = $197,000
Let's find the gain on restructuring.
Restructuring gain = Loan amount + Accured interest - fair value of land
Where,
Loan amount = $1,020,000
Accured interest = $112,200
Fair value of land = $920,000
Therefore,
Restructuring gain = $1,020,000 + $112,200 - $920,000 = $212,200
On its 2021 income statement Swifty should report as a result of the troubled debt restructuring...
Gain on disposal = $197,000
Restructuring gain = $212,200

Material Price Variance = (Standard Price - Actual Price) x Actual units
Material Price Variance = ($2.60 - $2.4) x 19,250 pounds
Material Price Variance = $3,850 (favorable)
As the actual rate is less than standard rate the variance is favorable.
Standard Quantity = 2,500 x 6.9 = 17,250 pounds
Material Quantity Variance = (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) x Standard Rate
Material Quantity Variance = (17,250 - 19,250) x $2.60
Material Quantity Variance = $5,200 (Unfavorable)
As the actual raw material quantity used is higher than standard raw material quantity the variance is unfavorable.
2. Labor Variances
Actual Labor Rate = 4,500/450 = $10/hour
Labor Rate Variance = (Standard Rate - Actual Rate) x Actual Hours
Labor Rate Variance = ($7 - $10) x 450
Labor Rate Variance = $1,350 (Unfavorable)
As actual rate is higher than standard rate thus the variance is unfavorable.
Standard Hours = 2,500 x 0.3 = 750
Labor Efficiency Variance = (Standard Hours - Actual Hours) x Standard Rate
Labor Efficiency Variance = (750 - 450) x $7
Labor Efficiency Variance = $2,100 (Favorable)
As the Standard Hours is more than Actual Hours the variance is favorable.

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.
Which one of the following is not true when the economy is in macroeconomic equilibrium? A. When the economy is at long-run equilibrium, actual GDPequalspotential GDP. B. When the economy is at long-run equilibrium, firms will have excess capacity. C. When the economy is at long-run equilibrium, total unemploymentequalsfrictional unemploymentplusstructural unemployment. D. When the economy is at long-run equilibrium, SRASequalsADequalsLRAS.
Answer:
The correct answer to the following question will be Option C.
Explanation:
Throughout the macroeconomic equilibrium, the aggregate supply curve becomes equivalent to something like the supply curve, the real GDP seems to be comparable to potential Output (GDP), however, if frictional as well as systemic unemployment seems to be the maximum total poverty throughout the longer term.Consequently, whenever the economy seems to be in macroeconomic equilibrium, the argument which is not accurate would be that the businesses would have excess power.So that Option C is the right answer.
Jason and Paula are married. They file a joint return for 2019 on which they report taxable income before the QBI deduction of $200,000. Jason operates a sole proprietorship, and Paula is a partner in the PQRS Partnership. Both are a qualified trade or business and neither is a specified services business. Jason's sole proprietorship reports $150,000 of net income, W-2 wages of $45,000, and has qualified property of $50,000. Paula's partnership reports a loss for the year, and her allocable share of the loss is $40,000. The partnership reports no W-2 wages and Paula's share of the partnership's qualified property is $20,000. What is their qualified business income deduction for the year
Answer:
Their QBI deduction is $22,000
Explanation:
According to the given data Jason and Paula’s taxable income before the QBI deduction=$200,000.
Therefore,W2 wages/capital investment limitation is not applicable to them.
Jason’s QBI amt=$30,000 ($150,000 x 20%).
Paula’s QBI amount= $(8,000) [$(40,000) x 20%].
Therefore, Their combined qualified business income amount= [$30,000+$(8,000)]=$22,000
As this amount is less than the overall limitation based on modified taxable income ($200,000 x 20% = $40,000), their QBI deduction is $22,000

Answer:
The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period is $29,580
Explanation:
In order to calculate The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period we would have to calculate first the Overhead allocated to Maintenance from Payroll department as follows:
Overhead allocated=Payroll overhead×(Maintenance payroll personnel/Total personnel)
Overhead allocated=$ 20,400×(15/15+15+45)
Overhead allocated=$4,080
Therefore, to calculate the The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period we would have to use the following formula:
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=Overhead allocated+Direct overhead incurred
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=$4,080+$25,500
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=$29,580
The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period is $29,580
g Tanning Company analyzes its receivables to estimate bad debt expense. The accounts receivable balance is $276,000 and credit sales are $1,000,000. An aging of accounts receivable shows that approximately 3% of the outstanding receivables will be uncollectible. What adjusting entry will Tanning Company make if the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a credit balance of $2,200 before adjustment?
Answer:
accounts receivable = $276,000
total credit sales = $1,000,000
3% of accounts receivable will not be decollete = $276,000 x 3% = $8,280
if allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance of $2,200, you must add = $8,280 - $2,200 = $6,080
the adjusting entry should be:
Dr Bad debt expense 6,080
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 6,080
Since allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra asset account it has a credit balance that reduces the value of accounts receivable.

Foreman Mining purchased land containing a copper deposit for $2,640,000 on January 7, 2021. The company expects to mine 770,000 tons of copper over the next 10 years, and the land is expected to have a residual value of $1,408,000. The company has also purchased mining equipment for $570,000 that will be used only at this site over the 10 years with an estimated residual value of $54,100. By the end of the first year, the company has mined and sold 61,000 tons of copper. What is the cost attributed to copper inventory for 2021, assuming the company uses the units-of-production method?
Answer:
$138,470
Explanation:
cost of mine = $2,640,000
residual value of the land = $1,408,000
cost of equipment = $570,000
residual value = $54,100
it should contain 770,000 tons of copper
units of production depreciation method:
depreciation of mine = ($2,640,000 - $1,408,000) / 770,000 tons of copper = $1.60 per ton of copperdepreciation of equipment = ($570,000 - $54,100) / 770,000 tons of copper = $0.67 per ton of coppertotal depreciation per ton of copper = $1.60 + $0.67 = $2.27since 61,000 tons were extracted, then the depreciation expense = 61,000 x $2.27 = $138,470
