39. You expect to receive $5,000 in 25 years. How much is it worth today if the discount rate is 5.5%?
Answer:
PV= $1,311.17
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future Value (FV)= $5,000
Number of periods (n)= 25 years
Interest rate (i)= 5.5% compounded annually
To calculate the present value (PV), we need to use the following formula:
PV= FV / (1+i)^n
PV= 5,000 / 1.055^25
PV= $1,311.17
The following standard costs pertain to a component part manufactured by Bor Company: An outside supplier has offered to supply all of the parts needed by Bor Company for $50 each. The 60% of the manufacturing overhead cost that is fixed would be unaffected by this decision. In the decision to "make or buy," what is the relevant unit cost to make the part internally?
Answer:
$30
Explanation:
The computation of relevant unit cost to make the part internally is shown below:-
Relevant cost of making part = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead
= $4 + $10 + ($40 - (100% - $60%)
= $4 + $10 + ($40 - 40%)
= $4 + $10 + $16
= $30
So, for computing the relevant unit cost to make the part internally we simply applied the above formula.
Colorado Rocky Cookie Company offers credit terms to its customers. At the end of 2016, accounts receivable totaled $720,000. The allowance method is used to account for uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance of $51,000 at the beginning of 2016 and $30,500 in receivables were written off during the year as uncollectible. Also, $3,100 in cash was received in December from a customer whose account previously had been written off. The company estimates bad debts by applying a percentage of 10% to accounts receivable at the end of the year. Required: 1. Prepare journal entries to record the write-off of receivables, the collection of $3,100 for previously written off receivables, and the year-end adjusting entry for bad debt expense. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

On December 31, 2019, The Bates Company's revenue is $340,000 and expenses total $220,000 before consideration of the following: Accrued wages total $16,000; Accrued revenues total $46,000; Depreciation expense is $22,000; Rental revenue of $8,000 was earned; the rent from a tenant was initially recorded by Bates as unearned rent revenue; The income tax rate is 30% of income before income taxes. What is Bates' net income after consideration of the above information
Answer: $95,200
Explanation:
Net Income before tax = Revenue - Expenses
Revenue = Revenue + Accrued revenues + Rental revenue
= 340,000 + 46,000 + 8,000
= $394,000
Expenses = Expenses + Accrued wages + Depreciation expenses
= 220,000 + 16,000 + 22,000
= $258,000
Net Income before taxes = 394,000 - 258,000
= $136,000
Net Income after tax = 136,000 ( 1 - Tax rate)
= 136,000 ( 1 - 0.3)
= $95,200
Which account would be listed on a post-closing trial balance?
a. Sales Revenue
b. Depreciation Expense
c. Retained Earnings
d. Income Tax Expense.
Answer: c. Retained Earnings
Explanation:
The post-closing trial balance reflects balance sheet items that do not have a $0 balance in them when a period has ended and is prepared after the temporary accounts have been closed off. The purpose is to make sure that the debits equal the credits.
As there are no temporary accounts, all income statement items will have been closed off and moved to the Retained earnings account which will reflect the total for the income statement for the year. The only account that will be listed in the post-closing trial balance therefore will be the Retained earnings account.
Green Corporation reported pretax book income of $1,012,000. During the current year, the net reserve for warranties increased by $50,600. In addition, tax depreciation exceeded book depreciation by $103,000. Finally, Green subtracted a dividends received deduction of $25,300 in computing its current year taxable income. Green's cash tax rate is:
Answer:
19.38%
Explanation:
Green corporation reported pretax book income as $1,012,000
The net reserve warranties increased by $50,600
Tax depreciation exceeded book depreciation by $103,000
The dividend received a deduction of $25,300
Cash tax rate= taxes payable/pre tax book income
The first step is to calculate the taxes payable
= $1,012,000 + $50,600 - $103,000 - $25,300 × 21%
= $934,300× 0.21
= $196,203
Therefore the cash tax rate can be calculated as follows
Cash tax rate= $196,203/$1,012,000
= 0.1938
= 19.38%
Hence Green's cash tax rate is 19.38%

Equivalent Units of Conversion Costs The Rolling Department of Oak Ridge Steel Company had 10,712 tons in beginning work in process inventory (70% complete) on July 1. During July, 82,400 tons were completed. The ending work in process inventory on July 31 was 7,416 tons (60% complete). What are the total equivalent units for conversion costs? Round to the nearest whole unit. 83,636 units
Answer:
Total equivalent unit 86,688
Explanation:
We will use the weighted average method of valuation.
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.
Equivalent units = Degree of completion (%) × Number of units
Item Tons Working Equivalent units
Completed unit 82,400 82,400× 100% 82,400
Closing inventory 7,416 7,416 × 60% 7,416
Total equivalent unit 86,687.6

Pigot Corporation uses job costing and has two production departments, M and A. Budgeted manufacturing costs for the year are as follows: Dept. MDept. A Direct materials$718,000 $118,000 Direct labor 218,000 836,000 Factory overhead 654,000 418,000 The actual direct materials and direct labor costs charged to Job. No. 432 during the year were as follows: Direct materials $58,000 Direct labor: Department M$26,000 Department A 30,000 56,000 Pigot applies manufacturing overhead to production orders on the basis of direct labor cost using departmental rates predetermined at the beginning of the year based on the annual budget. The total cost associated with Job. No. 432 for the year should be:
Answer:
Total cost= $207,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Budgeted manufacturing costs Dept. M Dept. A:
Direct labor 218,000 836,000
Factory overhead 654,000 418,000
Job. No. 432:
Direct materials $58,000
Direct labor: Department M$26,000 Department A 30,000
First, we need to determine the predetermined overhead rate for each department:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Departement M= 654,000/218,000= $3 per direct labor dollar
Department A= 418,000/836,000= $0.5 per direct labor dollar
Now, we can calculate the total cost:
Total cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead:
Total cost= 58,000 + 56,000 + (3*26,000 + 0.5*30,000)
Total cost= $207,000
Which of the following are microeconomic problems? (You may select more than one answer.)(a) Work/leisure choice.(b) Marketing strategy.(c) Recession.(d) Inflation.(e) Federal budget deficit.
Answer:
(a) Work/leisure choice
(b) Marketing strategy
Explanation:
Microeconomic issues relate to those that are within the scope and power of individuals, households and firms which means that problems here will relate to decisions that these participants make in relation to resource allocation.
Choices relating to leisure or work have to do with the individual and the resources they would need or derive from either work or leisure and so are a microeconomic problem.
The marketing strategy that a firm should pursue is related to an individual firm and so is a microeconomic problem as well.
The following data have been recorded for recently completed Job 450 on its job cost sheet. Direct materials cost was $2,049. A total of 35 direct labor-hours and 195 machine-hours were worked on the job. The direct labor wage rate is $21 per labor-hour. The Corporation applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of machine-hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $24 per machine-hour. The total cost for the job on its job cost sheet would be:
Answer:
Total cost= $7,464
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Job 450:
Direct materials= $2,049
35 direct labor-hours
195 machine-hours
The direct labor wage rate is $21 per labor-hour.
The predetermined overhead rate is $24 per machine-hour.
The total cost is calculated using the following formula:
Total cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead
Total cost= 2,049 + 35*21 + 195*24
Total cost= 2,049 + 735 + 4,680
Total cost= $7,464

Explanation:
cost of a piano = $1,488
selling price per piano = $2,900
advertising $942 per month
sales and commissions $4,799 + 3% commissions on sales
delivery of pianos = $60 per piano
utilities expense = $650
depreciation expense = $4,945
executive salaries = $13,566
clerical salaries = $2,480 + $36 per piano
depreciation = $900
63 pianos sold during August
cost of goods sold = $1,488 x 63 = $93,744
total sales revenue = $2,900 x 63 = $182,700
sales commissions = $5,481
clerical commissions = $2,268
Galehouse Gas Stations Inc. expects sales to increase from $1,510,000 to $1,710,000 next year. Galehouse believes that net assets (Assets − Liabilities) will represent 30 percent of sales. His firm has an 8 percent return on sales and pays 45 percent of profits out as dividends. a. What effect will this growth have on funds?
Answer:
Cash position reduces by -$24,760
Explanation:
If Gatehouse sales increases as expected the increase will be
1,710,000 - 1,510,000 = $200,000
Net assets is expected to represent 50% of sales, so this sales increase is expected to have Asset Buildup of:
0.50 * 200,000 = $100,000
Asset has a negative balance so it is -$100,000
Return on sales is 8% of the new sales value:
0.080 * 1,710,000 = $136,800 (profit)
45% of profit is paid out as dividend
0.45 * 136,800= -$61,560
It is negative as it represents cash going out
Total cash position = -100,000 + 136,800 - 61,560
Total cash position = -$24,760
Cash position reduces by -$24,760
The minimum acceptable expected rate of return on a project of a specific risk is the:________
A. project cost of capital.
B. company cost of capital.
C. risk-free rate of return.
D. project beta times market risk premium.
Answer: A. project cost of capital.
Explanation:
The project cost of capital is the minimum expected rate of project given the type of risk that is attached to it.
When a project is of a certain risk, the company will need a certain rate of return to compensate it for that risk.
This rate is the cost of capital and it is usually based on the company's Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) which measure the cost the company incurs when using equity and debt to raise capital.
The project cost of capital will be a rate that compensates the company enough to enable it compensate its capital providers.
Lauren Clark works for a pottery shop. She works 40-hour weeks (5 days) and gets paid $25 per hour. If she exceeds her normal 40 hours, she gets paid time and a half. On the first week of the year, she worked a total of 38 hours but got paid 46 hours because the 1st day of the year the pottery shop was closed but she still got paid for the day. The following 4 days, she had 1.5 hours of overtime per day. How much of her pay would be considered direct labor
Answer:
D. $950; 425
Explanation:
Remember, direct labor refers to the actual time spent on working such as using machinery, performing tasks that leads to the production of products or services. Indirect labor involves time activites that do not involve any production of products or services.
First, direct pay:
38 hours of work x $25 = $950$950
Indirect pay;
8 hours from the 46 hours she was paid (8 x $25) = $200For 4 days she had 1.5 hours of overtime per day (4 x 1.5 x 37.5) = $225.Total = $425
Note: by saying if she exceeds her normal 40 hours, she gets paid time and a half implies 1.5 * $25 ($37.5)
In practice, a common way to value a share of stock when a company pays dividends is to value the dividends over the next five years or so, then find the "terminal" stock price using a benchmark PE ratio. Suppose a company just paid a dividend of $1.15. The dividends are expected to grow at 10 percent over the next five years. The company has a payout ratio of 40 percent and a benchmark PE of 19. The required return is 11 percent. a. What is the target stock price in five years? b. What is the stock price today?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The Target stock price in five years is
As we know that
Target stock price in five years = Earnings per share in Year 5 × Benchmark P/E Ratio
where,
Earnings per share in Year 5 is
= D5 ÷ Pay-out Ratio
Now
D0 = $1.15 per share
D1 = $1.15 × 1.10 = $1.265per share
D2 = $1.265 × 1.10 = $ 1.3915
D3 = $1.3915 × 1.10 = $1.53065
D4 = $1.53065 × 1.10 = $1.683715
D5 = $1.683715 x 1.10 = $1.85209
Now
Earnings per share in Year 5 is
= D5 ÷ Pay-out Ratio
= $1.85209 ÷ 0.40
= $4.630225
Now
The Target stock price in five years is
= Earnings per share in Year 5 × Benchmark P/E Ratio
= $4.630225 × 19 Times
= $87.97;
b. Now the stock price today is to be shown in the spreadsheet below
Straker Industries estimated its short-run costs using a U-shaped average variable cost function of the form and obtained the following resultsDEPENDENT VARIABLE: AVC R-SQUARE F-RATIO P-VALUE ON FOBSERVATIONS: 35 0.8713 108.3 0.0001VARIABLE PARAMETER ESTIMATE STANDARD ERROR T-RATIO P-VALUE INTERCEPT 43.40 13.80 3.14 0.0036Q -2.80 0.90 -3.11 0.0039Q2 0.20 0.05 4.00 0.0004What is the estimated equation for average variable cost (AVC)?What is the estimated equation for short-run marginal cost (SMC)?What is the estimated equation for total variable cost (TVC)?At what level of output is AVC at its minimum point for Straker Industries?If Straker Industries produces 20 units of output, what is its estimated TVC, AVC and SMC?
Answer:
Note: The organized table is attached as picture below
i. What is the estimated equation for average variable cost (AVC)?
Intercept value = 43.40, Parameter estimates of Q and Q2 = -2.80 & 0.20 respectively.
Hence, the estimated equation for AVC is:
AVC = 43.40 - 2.80Q + 0.20Q2
ii. What is the estimated equation for total variable cost (TVC)?
Similarly, the estimated equation for TVC is
= AVC * Q
= 43.40Q - 2.80Q2 + 0.20Q3
iii. At what level of output is AVC at its minimum point for Straker Industries?
AVC will attain its minimum value when its derivative is set = 0. This occurs when:
-2.80 = -0.40Q
Q = 7.
iv. What is the estimated equation for short-run marginal cost (SMC)?
SMC is the derivative of TVC, its estimated equation is given by:
= 43.40 - 5.60Q + 0.60Q2
iv. If Straker Industries produces 20 units of output, what is its estimated TVC, AVC and SMC?
TVC = 43.40Q - 2.80Q^2 + 0.20Q^3
TVC = 43.40(20) - 2.80(20)^2 + 0.20(20)^3
TVC = 868 - 1120 + 1600
TVC = 1348
At 20 unit of output, its estimated TVC is 1348
AVC = 43.40 - 2.80Q + 0.20Q^2
AVC = 43.40 - 2.80(20) + 0.20(20)^2
AVC = 43.40 - 56 + 80
AVC = 67.4
At 20 unit of output, its estimated AVC is 67.4
SMC = 43.40 - 5.60Q + 0.60Q^2
SMC = 43.40 - 5.60(20) + 0.60(20)^2
SMC = 43.40 - 112 + 240
SMC = 171.4
At 20 unit of output, its estimated SMC is 171.4.
You manage an equity fund with an expected risk premium of 10% and a standard deviation of 14%. The rate on Treasury bills is 6%. Your client chooses to invest $60,000 of her portfolio in your equity fund and $40,000 in a T-bill money market fund. What is the reward-to-volatility (Sharpe) ratio for the equity fund
Answer: 0.71
Explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
Expected risk premium = 10%
Standard deviation = 14%.
Treasury bills rate = 6%.
The expected return of equity will be:
= 10% + 6%
= 16%
The reward to voltality ratio is calculated as:
(expected return - risk free rate )/standard deviation
= (16% -6%)/14%
= 10%/14%
=0.1/0.14

5. The demand for good X is estimated to be QXd = 10,000 - 4PX + 5PY + 2M + AX where PX is the price of X, PY is the price of good Y, M is income and AX is the amount of advertising on X. Suppose the present price of good X is $50, PY = $100, M = $25,000, and AX = 1,000 units. Determine 1. a. Own price elasticity of demand b. Cross price elasticity of demand c. Income elasticity of demand d. Is good y a complement or a substitute e. Is good is normal or inferior
Answer:
We need to calculate quantity demanded of good X
Qxd = 10,000 − 4PX + 5PY + 2M + AX
Qxd = 10,000 − 4(50) + 5(100) + 2(25000) + 1000
Qxd = 10,000 - 200 + 500 + 50000 + 1000
Qxd = 61,300
a. E(P) = ∆Qx/∆Px * (Px / Qx)
E(P) = - 4 * (50 / 61,300)
{where, ∆Qx/∆Px is the price coefficient = -4}
E(P) = = - 0.003 (The absolute value is 0.003)
Demand is inelastic, because price elasticity is less than 1.
b. CPED = ∆Qx/∆Py * (Py / Qx)
CPED = 5 * (100 / 61,300)
[where, ∆Qx/∆Py is the price coefficient of good Y = 5]
CPED = 0.008
c. IED = ∆Qx/∆M * (M / Qx)
= 2 * (25,000 / 61,300)
[where, ∆Qx/∆M is the income coefficient = 2]
= 0.816
d. Good Y and X is subtitles because CPED is positive.
e. Good X is a normal good because income elasticity is positive.
or 2018, Gourmet Kitchen Products reported $22 million of sales and $18 million of operating costs (including depreciation). The company has $15 million of total invested capital. Its after-tax cost of capital is 9% and its federal-plus-state income tax rate was 35%. What was the firm's economic value added (EVA), that is, how much value did management add to stockholders' wealth during 2018
Answer:
Economic value added = $1,250,000
Explanation:
Economic value added (EVA) = Net operating profit after taxes - Invested capital * cost of capital
Economic value added= [($22,000,000 - $18,000,000) * (1 - 0.35)] - [$15,000,000 * 9%]
Economic value added = ($4,000,000 * 0.65) - $1,350,000
Economic value added = $2,600,000 - $1,350,000
Economic value added = $1,250,000
Zipcar: Creating Value in the Marketplace Zipcar: Creating Value in the Marketplace Nearly a decade ago, the founders of Zipcar decided to bring the car-sharing experience to the United States. Since then, Zipcar has developed the gold standard by offering its members 24/7 access to thousands of cars around the world and creating a revolution in the way many think about alternate transportation. This activity is important because understanding the marketplace, especially consumers' needs and wants, is fundamental to marketing success. The goal of this exercise is to demonstrate how marketing focuses on creating value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large. Read the case of about how Zipcar creates value in the car-sharing services market and answer the questions that follow. Zipcar is a membership-based car sharing service offering automobile rental to its members in hour or day increments. Zipcar was founded in 2000 by Robin Chase and Antje Danielson, who were inspired by the success of car sharing in Europe; Avis Budget Group acquired the company in 2013. Zipcar has become the world's largest car-sharing service in over 50 North American cities, 20+ European cities, and over 100 college campuses in North America. Zipcar offers different types of membership, with plans aimed at both occasional and frequent drivers. In addition, special plans for corporations and universities are offered. In addition to monthly or annual membership fees, customers pay rental charges to use a Zipcar. Members can view vehicle accessibility and reserve a vehicle on Zipcar's website, using its mobile app, or on the telephone. "Zipsters" (as Zipcar members are called) are given a "Zipcard" that contains a wireless chip that opens their reserved vehicle; keys are stored inside the vehicle, along with a gas card members can use to fill the tank. When the Zipster is done with the car, s/he returns it to the car's home location (a reserved spot for the automobile in the member's area). Zipcar's fleet consists of automobiles from Audi, BMW, Ford, Honda, Nissan, and Toyota Ford and Toyota have partnered with Zipcar to test their new electric and hybrid options with Zipcar members. Zipcar focuses not only on creating a convenient experience for its members, but also on developing awareness about alternative transportation options.

Simon Company had the following summarized operations for the month of May: cash sales, $32,000; sales on account, $18,000; expenses paid in cash, $5,000; expenses incurred on credit, $10,000. In addition, the company purchased equipment for $8,000 on account and supplies for $5,000 cash. The net income for the month of May is
Answer:
$35,000
Explanation:
The computation of net income for the month of may is given below:-
Net income for the month of may = Revenues - Expenses
= ($32,000 + $18,000) - ($5,000 + $10,000)
= $50,000 - $15,000
= $35,000
Therefore for computing the net income for the month of may we simply applied the above formula.
Hence, the net income is $35,000
