c. Normative
d. Normative
e. Positive
Explanation:
Positive Economics is objective and statements are usually based on facts and economic theory. They can be tested.
For example, there is a theory known as Phillips curve. It is when society faces a short-run trade-off between inflation and unemployment. Also it is known that lower tax increases disposable income which increases savings or consumption.
Normative economics is based value judgements, opinions and perspectives. For example, the statement - The Federal Reserve should reduce the rate of money growth is an opinion
Thompson Refrigerators Inc. needs to prepare pro forma financial statements for the next fiscal year. To do so, the company must forecast its total overhead cost. The actual machine hours and total overhead cost are presented below for the past six months. Month Total Overhead Machine Hours Jan. $8,258 2,134 Feb. 8,006 2,045 Mar. 8,387 2,276 Apr. 8,832 2,743 May 8,921 2,834 June 7,841 2,034 Using the high-low method, total monthly fixed overhead cost is calculated to be:
Answer:
$5,095.10
Explanation:
The computation of the total monthly fixed overhead cost using the high-low method is given below:
But before that the variable cost per unit is
Variable cost per unit is
= [Total cost at highest level - Total cost at lowest level] ÷ [Highest level - Lowest level]
= ($8,921 - $7,841) ÷ (2,834 - 2,034)
= $1.35
Now
The total fixed cost for the month is
= $8921 - (1.35 × 2,834)
= $5,095.10
Lloyd is the CFO for a firm that uses ISOs as part of its executive compensation plan. He receives $150,000 annually, paid semimonthly, in base salary plus 25 shares of the firm's stock per month. The stock is omitted from gross pay calculations and is valued at $52.50 per share and he may exercise his option within five years at $0.10 per share. What is Lloyd's gross pay for mid-October
Answer:
Lloyd
Gross pay for mid-October is $6,250.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Annual base salary = $150,000
Bi-weekly base salary = $6,250 ($150,000/24)
ISO = 25 shares per month valued at $52.50 per share = $1,312.50
Bi-weekly ISO = $656.25 ($1,212.50/2)
Option exercise price = $0.10 per share
b) ISOs mean incentive stock options, which are performance-based compensations to company executives in the form of shares.
c) The calculation of the mid-October gross pay is based on the division of Lloyd's annual base salary by 12 months * 2 (24 mid-months).
Two different suppliers are competing to supply a particular part for a new Boeing airliner. The Japanese supplier charges J(n) dollars for n parts whereas the Italian supplier charges I(n) dollars for n parts. (a) Which supplier should be used to supply a large number of parts if
Answer:
Italian Supplier will be chosen to supply a Large number of parts.
Explanation:
Note: This question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to solve. However I have found the missing part of this question and will be using that to solve for the sake of understanding and concept.
Data Missing:
Which supplier should be used to supply a large number of parts if:
Lim (n--> infinity) [tex]\frac{J(n)}{I(n)} = 0?[/tex] Now, this condition was missing in the question, now we can solve this question.
Solution:
Here, we can see that, the limit of function is approaching to infinity, which indicates (n--> infinity) we want to make larger number of parts. So, we also know that Limit value of this function = 0.
It means that, numerator must be smallest and the denominator must be largest to get the value = 0. And, here denominator = I(n) means Italian Supplier.
Otherwise, if we put larger values of numerator then, it is not possible to get the value of 0.
So, if we choose Italian supplier for a large number of parts, then the value of the Limit Function will be zero for it is approaching infinity.
Hence,
Italian Supplier will be chosen to supply a Large number of parts.
Martha is a regional supervisor who earns a base salary of $34,400 per year plus a 1% commission on all service contracts that she sells to existing customers. The company pays salaries on a semi monthly basis and contract commissions on a quarterly basis. As of September 30, Martha had made $38,200 in contract sales for the third quarter. What will be her gross pay on her next pay date
Answer:
Martha gross pay on her next pay date is $1,815.33.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Number of semi months in a year = 24
Semi monthly salary = Salary per year / Number of semi months in a year = $34,400 / 24 = $1,433.33
Commission from contract sales for the third quarter = Contract sales for the third quarter * Commission percentage = $38,200 * 1% = $382
Martha gross pay on her next pay date = Semi monthly salary + Commission from contract sales for the third quarter = $1,433.33 + $382 = $1,815.33
Therefore, Martha gross pay on her next pay date is $1,815.33.

c. Assume Erwin and Eleanor have adjusted gross income of $85,000, no tax-exempt interest, and $15,000 of Social Security benefits. As a result, $ of the Social Security benefits are taxable.
Answer:
a. Erwin and Eleanor are married and file a joint tax return. They have adjusted gross income of $36,000, no tax-exempt interest, and $12,400 of Social Security benefits. As a result, $ of the Social Security benefits are taxable.
Since their income is between $32,000 to $44,000, they have to pay income for 50% of their social security benefits = $12,400 x 50% = $6,200b. Assume Erwin and Eleanor have adjusted gross income of $12,000, no tax-exempt interest, and $16,000 of Social Security benefits. As a result, $ of the Social Security benefits are taxable.
Since their income is below $32,000, their social security benefits will not be taxed.c. Assume Erwin and Eleanor have adjusted gross income of $85,000, no tax-exempt interest, and $15,000 of Social Security benefits. As a result, $ of the Social Security benefits are taxable.
Since their income is higher than $44,000, they have to pay income for 85% of their social security benefits = $15,000 x 85% = $12,750
Company C had the following investment. Help them determine the financial statement implications of the investment. Tax rate 21% Estimated tax payment 21,000 Investment cost and ending fair values for 20X1 and 20X2: 20X1 20X2 Cost 100,000 100,000 Fair value 110,000 134,000 Total gain 10,000 34,000 20X1 income statement information: Sales 1,670,200 Expenses 1,536,600 Assuming the investement is short-term, what is the ending balance of taxes payable on the 20X1 balance sheet?
Answer:
$9,156
Explanation:
Income = (Sales-expenses) + $10,000
Income = ($1,670,200 - $1,536,600) + $10,000
Total income = $143,600
Tax = Income * Tax Rate = $143,600 * 0.21 = $30,156
Now, total taxes payable is $30,156,but they estimated that payment to be $21,000, So company C has reserved $21,000 for future tax payments
So, Net deferred tax payable = $30,156 - $21,000 = $9,156. Therefore, ending balance of taxes payable on the 20X1 balance sheet is $9,156.

The company observed that at 20,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $10.50 per hour. When activity jumped to 24,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $9.75. On the basis of this information, the company's fixed maintenance costs were:
Answer:
Total fixed cost element = $90000
Explanation:
To calculate the fixed maintenance cost, first we will use the high-low method to calculate the element of average variable maintenance cost per machine hour in the average total maintenance cost.
The value of highest activity = 24000 * 9.75 = $234000
The value of lowest activity = 20000 * 10.5 = $210000
Average VC per MH = (234000 - 210000) / (24000 - 20000)
Average VC per MH = $6 per machine hour
Total Average variable cost (24000 MH) = 6 * 24000 = $144000
Total fixed cost element = 234000 - 144000 = $90000

Every week for four weeks it purchases an additional 10 units at respective costs of $61, $62, $65 and $70 per unit for weeks 1 through 4. Assume that no sales occur during those four weeks.
1. Calculate the cost of goods available for sale and
2. the units available for sale for this four week period.
Answer:
1. $3,180
2. 50 units
Explanation:
1. Calculation for the cost of goods available for sale
Beginning Inventory 10units *$60= $600
Week 1 purchase 10 units*$61=$ 610
Week 2 purchase 10units* $62=$ 620
Week 3 purchase 10 units*$65= 650
Week 4 purchase 10units*$70= $700
Cost of goods available for sale =$3,180
($600+$610+$620+$650+$700)
Therefore the cost of goods available for sale will be $3,180
2. Calculation for the units available for sale for this four week period.
Units available for sale =10 units+10 units+10 units+10 units+10 units
Units available for sale=50 units
Therefore the units available for sale for this four week period will be 50 units

Green Valley Exporters USA has $100,000 of before tax foreign income. The host country has a corporate income tax rate of 25% and the U.S. has a corporate income tax rate of 35%. If the U.S. has a bilateral trade agreement with the host country that calls for the total tax paid to be equal to the maximum amount that could be paid in the highest taxing country, what is the total amount of income taxes Green Valley Exporters will pay to the host country, and how much will they pay in U.S income taxes on the foreign earned income
Answer:
Amount paid in host country will be = Income * Tax rate in host country = $100,000*25% = $25,000
Amount paid in US will be Income * Tax rate in US - Tax paid in host country (Since the tax rate in host country is lower than USA) = $100,000*35% - $25,000 = $35,000 - $25,000 = $10,000
A company purchased $10,700 of merchandise on June 15 with terms of 2/10, n/45, and FOB shipping point. The freight charge, $850, was added to the invoice amount. On June 20, it returned $1360 of that merchandise. On June 24, it paid the balance owed for the merchandise taking any discount it is entitled to. The cash paid on June 24 equals:______
a. $10,003.
b. $9,224.
c. $11,550.
d. $11,210.
e. $11,11Ο.
Answer:
a. $10,003.
Explanation:
The terms of 2/10, n/45 means that there is a 2% discount if the payment is made within 10 days of the sales date and rhe net credit period is 45 days.
Calculate total invoice value
Total Invoice value = Merchandise value + Freight Charges = $10,700 + $850 = $11,550
As the payment is made on June 24 within the discount period, the discount will be availed
Discount = ( Purchases made - Returns ) x 2% = ( $10,700 - $1,360 ) x 2% = $186.80 = $187
Now the Amount paid
Amount Paid = Invoice value - Return - Discount avaialed = $11,550 - $1360 - 187 = $10,003
In 2018, internal auditors discovered that Fay, Inc., had debited an expense account for the $4,600,000 cost of a machine purchased on January 1, 2015. The machine's useful life was expected to be 20 years with no residual value. Straight-line depreciation is used by Fay. The journal entry to correct the error will include a credit to accumulated depreciation of:_____.
Answer:
$230,000
Explanation:
Depreciation Charge (Straight line) = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated Useful Life
therefore,
2018 Depreciation Charge = ($4,600,000 - $ 0) ÷ 20
= $230,000
The journal entry to correct the error will include a credit to accumulated depreciation of $230,000

Over the past decade, many American candy companies have opened factories in Mexico and Canada to produce candy. The companies, including Hershey Company, Brach's Confections, and Ferrara Pan, then ship candy back to the United States for sale. Although lower wages in Mexico might explain part of this move, wages in Canada are comparable to U.S. wages. Price floors (price supports) for the sugar industry encouraged American candy companies to move production out of the United States. Describe how the enactment of a sugar price floor impacted the market for candy in the United States, resulting in the movement of manufacturing.
Answer:
The sugar industry in the US is very powerful and has been able to establish trade barriers and import quotas that affect domestic prices. Sugar prices in the US are extremely high compared to prices in any other country, including Canada, Mexico, China, European nation, i.e. American sugar is the most expensive in the world.
Besides imposing trade barriers, the government also imposes a binding price floor. Binding price floors always result in deadweight losses since the quantity demanded is lower than equilibrium. This is why American candy manufacturers move their production overseas. the highest cost in the candy industry is actually sugar, and wherever they decide to relocate their factories it will always be cheaper.

Michael won the Powerball jackpot of 57 million dollars. He has two options to collect the cash: (a) 30-year annuities (first payment one year from today) which future value equates the jackpot amount given that the prevailing interest rate is 8% per year; (b) a single payment now, corresponding to the present value of those 30-year annuities. Michael has big plans, hence he prefers option (b). Assuming that there are no taxes, how much money will he be able to collect now
Answer:
$5,664,627.53
Explanation:
future value of the annuity = $57 million
interest rate = 8%
number of periods = 30
FV annuity factor, 8%, 30 periods = 113.283
annual payment = future value / FV annuity factor= $57,000,000 / 113.283 = $503,164.64
the present value of an annuity = annual payments x PV annuity factor
PV annuity factor, 30 periods, 8% = 11.258
present value of the annuity = $503,164.64 x 11.258 = $5,664,627.53
Alexa and Maya, married and filing joint income tax returns, derive their entire income from the operation of their retail candy shop. Their 2019 adjusted gross income was $50,000. They itemize their deductions on Schedule-A for 2019.

Answer:
Alexa and Maya
The amount that they should deduct for taxes on Schedule A for 2019 is:
= $5,025.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Adjusted gross income = $50,000
State income tax = $1,200
Self-employment tax = $7,650
Amount they should deduct for taxes on Schedule A for 2019:
State income tax = $1,200
50% of Self-employment tax = $3,825 ($7,650 * 50%)
Total = $5,025
b) Taxpayers who itemize deductions on their federal income tax returns can deduct 50% of self-employment tax and 100% of state and local real estate and personal property taxes, as well as either income taxes or general sales taxes. Note that state and local taxes have been deductible since the inception of the federal income tax in 1913.

Cost of Units Transferred Out and Ending Work in Process The costs per equivalent unit of direct materials and conversion in the Filling Department of Eve Cosmetics Company are $0.95 and $2.90, respectively. The equivalent units to be assigned costs are as follows: Equivalent Units Direct Materials Conversion Inventory in process, beginning of period 0 5,000 Started and completed during the period 63,000 63,000 Transferred out of Filling (completed) 63,000 68,000 Inventory in process, end of period 4,000 1,200 Total units to be assigned costs 67,000 69,200 The beginning work in process inventory had a cost of $3,250. Determine the cost of completed and transferred-out production and the ending work in process inventory. If required, round to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
Cost of completed and transferred-out production = $260,300Cost of Ending inventory = $7,280Explanation:
Costs per equivalent unit of direct materials and conversion are $0.95 and $2.90, respectively.
Cost of completed and transferred-out production:
Units Transferred out of Filling (completed):
Direct materials = 63,000
Conversion = 68,000
= Cost of completed and transferred materials + cost of conversion and transferred + beginning inventory
= (63,000 * 0.95) + (68,000 * 2.90) + 3,250
= 59,850 + 197,200 + 3,250
= $260,300
Cost of Ending inventory:
Inventory in process, end of period
Direct materials = 4,000
Conversion = 1,200
= (4,000 * 0.95) + (1,200 * 2.90)
= $7,280
