Carry the hourly rate and the overtime rate to 3 decimal places and then round off to 2 decimal places (round the hourly rate to 2 decimal places before multiplying by one and one-half to determine the overtime rate).
If the third decimal place is 5 or more, round to the next higher cent.
If the third decimal place is less than 5, drop the third decimal place.
Also, use the minimum hourly wage of $7.25 in solving these problems and all that follow.
Jax Company's (a monthly depositor) tax liability (amount withheld from employees' wages for federal income tax and FICA tax plus the company's portion of the FICA tax) for July was $1,210. No deposit was made by the company until August 24, 20--. Determine the following:
Note: Round your answers to the nearest cent and assume 365 days in a year.
a. The date by which the deposit should have been made August 25
b. The penalty for failure to make timely deposit $________
c. The penalty for failure to fully pay tax when due $________
d. The interest on taxes due and unpaid (assume a 4% interest rate) $________
Answer:
A. 15th August
B. 60.5
C. 6.05
D. 1.19
Explanation:
Let assume that during the lookback period, you reported a tax rate of $50000 or less. It implies that you're a monthly depositor(based on schedule) and all taxes much be deposited on or before the 15th day of the next month.
Inability to meet up with the timely deposit has penalty based on their tiers.
For 1 - 5 days late = 2% of upaod depsot
6 - 15 late = 5% on tax payment
15 days late = 10% on deposits
10 days late of IRS = 15% on deposit
Since no deposits were made till Aug 24, then deposit has been delayed by 9 days (i.e. Aug 15 - 24)
Thus, the penalty for making timely deposit = 1210 × 0.05 = 60.5
Inability to pay the penalty = 0.5 percent per month ( for unpaid taxes).
So, the penalty for failure of fully paid tax = 120 × 0.5% = 6.05
Assuming a 4% interest rate; the interest on taxes due & unpaid is
= 1210 × 0.04 × 9/365
= 1.19
Therefore, the total penalty imposed = 60.5 + 6.05 + 1.19 = 67.74

What are the costs and sources of inefficiency in a barter B apply.) A. Productivity is increased by specialization. B. Each good has only one price. C. There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners. D. There is a lack of standardization. E. There is difficulty in accumulating wealth. OF. Transactions costs are almost always high.
Answer:
C)There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.
D)There is a lack of standardization.
E)There is difficulty in accumulating wealth.
Explanation:
barter in a trade can be regarded as a system of exchange that involves exchange of goods and services for another without using money as a medium of exchange. Barter is been considered as 'inefficient' as a result of the needs for 'double coincidence of wants'. For instance in a situation whereby someone is buying particular amount of another's goods, but the payment he/she has is for just one indivisible unit of another good, and the worth is higher than what he/she want to obtain, in this case there won't be barter transaction.
It should be noted that the costs and sources of inefficiency in a barter are;
✓There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.
✓There is a lack of standardization.
✓There is difficulty in accumulating
Miguel Alvarez in the accounting department at Baumer Company has provided the following information:
Cost per Unit Cost per Period
Direct materials $6.25
Direct labor $3.20
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.20
Fixed manufacturing overhead $13,200
Sales commissions $1.20
Variable administrative expense $0.50
Fixed selling and administrative expense $3,300
The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to:_____
The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to $10.65.
Here, the fixed cost would not be relevant for the computation.
Incremental manufacturing cost when production level changed is
= Direct material cost per unit + Direct labor cost per unit + Variable manufacturing overhead per unit
= $6.25 + $3.20 + $1.20
= $10.65
In conclusion, the incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to $10.65.

Binder Corporation agreed to build a warehouse for a client at an agreed contract price of $4,000,000. Expected (and actual) costs for the warehouse follow: 2017, $640,000; 2018, $1,600,000; and 2019, $800,000. The company completed the warehouse in 2019. Compute net income for each year 2017 through 2019 using the cost-to-cost method. a. 2017: $200,000 2018: $520,000 2019: $240,000 b. 2017: $640,000 2018: $1,600,000 2019: $800,000 c. 2017: $0 2018: $0 2019: $960,000 d. 2017: $320,000 2018: $320,000 2019: $320,000
Answer:
The correct option is a. 2017: $200,000 2018: $520,000 2019: $240,000.
Explanation:
The formula for cost to cost method is expected or actual cost incurred to date divided by the total cost of the project or contract.
Therefore, we have:
Total cost = Cost in 2017 + Cost in 2018 + Cost in 2019 = $640,000 + $1,600,000 + $800,000 = $3,040,000
Cost in 2017 contribution to total cost = Cost in 2017 / Total cost = $640,000 / $3,040,000 = 0.21
Cost in 2018 contribution to total cost = Cost in 2018 / Total cost = $1,600,000 / $3,040,000 = 0.53
Cost in 2019 contribution to total cost = Cost in 2019 / Total cost = $800,000 / $3,040,000 = 0.26
Revenue in 2017 = Cost in 2017 contribution to total cost * Contract price = 0.21 * $4,000,000 = $840,000
Revenue in 2018 = Cost in 2018 contribution to total cost * Contract price = 0.53 * $4,000,000 = $2,120,000
Revenue in 2019 = Cost in 2019 contribution to total cost * Contract price = 0.26 * $4,000,000 = $1,040,000
Therefore, net income for each year 2017 through 2019 using the cost-to-cost method can be computed as follows:
Net income for year 2017 = Revenue in 2017 - Cost in 2017 = $840,000 - $640,000 = $200,000
Net income for year 2018 = Revenue in 2018 - Cost in 2018 = $2,120,000 - $1,600,000 = $520,000
Net income for year 2019 = Revenue in 2019 - Cost in 2019 = $1,040,000 - $800,000 = $240,000
Therefore, the correct option is a. 2017: $200,000 2018: $520,000 2019: $240,000.

Explanation:
Universal Manufacturing uses a weighted-average process-costing system. All materials are introduced at the start of manufacturing, and conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the process. The company's beginning and ending work-in-process inventories totaled 10,000 units and 15,000 units, respectively, with the latter units being 2/3 complete at the end of the period. Universal started 30,000 units into production and completed 25,000 units. Manufacturing costs follow.
Beginning work in process: Materials, $60,000; conversion cost, $150,000
Current costs: Materials, $180,000; conversion cost, $480,000
Universal's equivalent-unit cost for conversion cost is:____.
a. $4.50.
b. $6.00.
c. $8.00.
d. $9.60.
e. some other amount.
Answer: b. $6.00
Explanation:
Equivalent Cost Per Unit = Total Material Cost/Materials Equivalent Units
Materials Equivalent Units
= Opening inventory + Units completed + Ending inventory
= 10,000 + 25,000 + 5,000
= 40,000 units
Equivalent cost per unit = (Beginning WIP Materials + Current costs) / Materials EUP
= (60,000 + 180,000) / 40,000
= $6.00
Note: Ending materials inventory = Units started - Units completed
In 2008, Betserai was a 10-year-old quintrillionaire living in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. He was literally rolling in money. In fact, Betserai has so much money that he decided to make kites out of billion dollar bills instead of putting the money into the bank to earn interest. None of Betserai's friends bothered to save their money, either. Rupert was Betserai's American pen pal and heard of Betserai's story and was extremely confused. He was taught that Zimbabwe was one of the poorer countries in the world, or at the least substantially poorer than the United States. Which statement best explains this phenomenon?
A. A country's wealth is based on the amount of money in circulation.
B. Zimbabwe was in the midst of an incredible economic boom, substantially increasing the wealth of all its citizens.
C. Rapid rises in price levels made the Zimbabwean dollar near worthless in terms of purchasing power.
D. All of these statements could explain what happened in Zimbabwe in 2008.
Answer:
C. Rapid rises in price levels made the Zimbabwean dollar near worthless in terms of purchasing power.
Explanation:
As in the given situation it is mentioned that 10 year old boy has the bill of billion dollar this represented that the country really printed the bill of billion dollar. It means that the attempt is to be done in order to print a currenct note of higher denomination that also represent that the country would increased such level also at the same time a big amount is required to purchased the goods and services.
Also the high denomination values would not consist of actual value as they have purchasing power i.e. negligible
The Beckham Company has the following information about their activity cost pools: Activity Cost Pools Total Overhead Cost Total Activity Machine Setups $ 125,000 5,000 setups Customer Orders $ 200,000 1,250 orders Product Design $ 300,000 2,500 product design hours The activity rate for machine setups is ________. multiple choice $125,000 $0.04 per setup $10 per setup $25 per setup
Answer:
$25 per setup
Explanation:
With regards to the above, activity rate is computed as;
= Activity cost pool resources / Activity driver
Activity cost pool resources = $125,000
Activity driver = 5,000
Activity rate for machine setup = $125,000/5,000 = $25 per setup
In 2019, Martin had two employers during the year. Both employers withheld Social Security tax from his wages in the amounts of $4,314.05 and $4,274.75. What amount can Martin claim as a credit against his income tax when he files his income tax return
Answer:
$1241.80
Explanation:
From the given information:
the social security taxes withheld by both employers are $4314.05 and $4274.75 respectively.
Let's recall that the maximum amount the IRS can also withhold from wages is $7347.00.
Therefore;
the required amount that can be claimed as a credit is:
= $4,314.05 + $4,274.75 - $7347.00
= $1241.80
Answer:
$349
Explanation:
1) 4,314.05 + 4,274.75 = 8,588.80
2) Social security withheld max: 132,900 * 6.2% = 8,239.80
3) 8,588.80 - 8,239.80 = 349

The management of Krach Corporation would like to investigate the possibility of basing its predetermined overhead rate on activity at capacity. The company's controller has provided an example to illustrate how this new system would work. In this example, the allocation base is machine-hours and the estimated amount of the allocation base for the upcoming year is 13,000 machine-hours. Capacity is 19,000 machine-hours and the actual level of activity for the year is assumed to be 9500 machine-hours. All of the manufacturing overhead is fixed and both the estimated amount at the beginning of the year and the actual amount at the end of the year are assumed to be $22,800 per year. For simplicity, it is assumed that this is the estimated manufacturing overhead for the year as well as the manufacturing overhead at capacity. It is further assumed that this is also the actual amount of manufacturing overhead for the year. If the company bases its predetermined overhead rate on capacity, what would be the cost of unused capacity reported on the income statement prepared for internal management purposes
Answer:
the cost of the unused capacity reported is $11,400
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of the unused capacity reported is as follows:
= (Estimated amount of overhead ÷ capacity machine hours) × (capacity machine hours - actual machine hours)
= ($22,800 ÷ 19,000 machine hours) × (19,000 - 9,500)
= $1.2 × (9,500)
= $11,400
hence, the cost of the unused capacity reported is $11,400

Planes frequently push back from the gate on time, but then wait 2 feet away from the gate until it is time to queue up for takeoff. This increases fuel consumption, and increases the time that passengers must sit in a cramped plane awaiting takeoff.
Which of the following performance metrics would, if emphasized in evaluations, incentivize airlines to engage in such practices?
A. A performance metric that measures customer satisfaction, based on customer comfort while on the plane
B. A performance metric that measures timeliness of the flight, where a flight is considered "on time" as long as the flight is boarded and away from the gate by the scheduled departure time
C. A performance metric that measures timeliness of the flight, where a flight is considered "on time" as long as the plane takes off by the scheduled departure time.
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
The performance metric that would incentivize this would be one that measures timeliness of the flight, where a flight is considered "on time" as long as the flight is boarded and away from the gate by the scheduled departure time. This is because the time it takes for the plane to be boarded and ready for departure can vary and ultimately depends on many factors. Once the plane is completely boarded and away from the gate, the rest of the variables that affect the plane's ETA can be easily calculated by flight control and therefore can be considered as "on time"
homeworklib Assume the following for White Top Inc. for the current fiscal year. White Top applies overhead on the basis of units produced. Budgeted overhead $ 200,000 Actual overhead $ 222,000 Actual labor hours 15,000 Actual number of units sold 43,000 Underapplied overhead $ 20,000 Budgeted production (units) 50,000 Required: How many units were produced in the current fiscal year
Answer:
50,500 Units
Explanation:
The computation of the number of units produced is shown below:
Overhead rate is
= $200,000 ÷ 50,000 units
= $4 per unit
The Actual overhead is $222,000
So,
Under applied overhead is $20,000
Now
Applied overhead is
= $222,000 - $20,000
= $202,000
And, finally
Actual unit produced is
= $202000 ÷ 4
= 50,500 Units
22) One year ago the spot rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars was $1/C$1. Since that time the rate of inflation in the U.S. has been 4% greater than that in Canada. Based on the theory of Relative PPP, the current spot exchange rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars should be approximately ________. A) $0.96/C$ B) $1/C$1 C) $1.04/C$1 D) relative PPP provides no guide for this type of question
Answer: C) $1.04/C$1
Explanation:
We define the inflation rate in a certain country as
a rate at which the value of a currency is falling as a result the usual level of prices for goods and services keeps rising.1 year ago the spot rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars was $1/C$1.
That time inflation rate in US was 4% greater than in Canada.
So, the current spot exchange rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars :
($1 + 4% of $1)/C$1
=($1+$0.04)/ C$1
=$1.04 / C$1
Hence, the correct option is C) $1.04/C$1
The following transactions took place for Tanaka company in June: Purchased equipment on account for $9,800. Billed customers $5,600 for services performed.

Less: Amount Paid = $2400
Account payable = $7400
The Accounts Receivable balances at June 30, 2016 would be:
Beginning balance = $5600
Less: Amount received = $3900
Account receivable balance = $1700
Suppose the statutory incidence were instead on the consumers. Calculate the new equilibrium price and quantity in the market. In that case, the dollar portion of the $0.75/drink tax that is borne by consumers is $ . The dollar portion of the $0.75/drink that that is borne by producers is $ .
Answer:
The new equilibrium price is $6.43 and the quantity is 374.28
The tax borne by consumers is 0.72
The tax borne by producers is 0.03
Explanation:
The old equilibrium price of the bubble tea was $5.71 while the new price of the bubble tea is $6.43. The new price includes the tax effect which is paid by the consumers. The difference in the two equilibrium prices is the tax which is borne by consumers.
The town clerk receives the mail for the Town of Charity, every day. Included in the mail are utility payments, both in cash and check form. The amount of money taken in by the Utility Department is lower than it should be. The Utility Department also takes in checks and cash on a daily basis. No customer has complained that they are not credited for payment of their bill. Different people make the ledger entries in the Utility Department Office. Different people make the bank deposits. How did she commit the fraud
Unclear question. However, I answered based on the case above.
Answer:
by stealing from the utility cash payments
Explanation:
Recall we are told that the utility payments are received in both cash and check form.
Hence, it is possible for the clerk to steal from the cash utility payment rather than the checks because it can easily go unnoticed by customers, or differences may be overlooked by some, and so she was able to commit this fraud.
On January 1, 2020, Sheridan Company sold 10% bonds with a face value of $2750000. The bonds mature in five years, and interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds were sold for $2973100 to yield 8%. Using the effective-interest method of amortization, interest expense for 2020 is
Answer:
$227,591.04
Explanation:
The computation of the interest expense is shown below;
The interest expense on the face value
= $2,750,000 × 10% × 6 months ÷ 12 months

= $118,924
Now the closing balance would be
= $2,973,100 - $137,500 - $118,924
= $2,716,676
Now the interest on the same is
= $2,716,676 × 8% × 6 months ÷ 12 months
= $108,667.04
Now the interest expense is
= $108,667.04 + $118,924
= $227,591.04

Company B acquired the following piece of equipment. Your staff accountant computed the book and tax depreciation. It is up to you to determine the deferred tax amounts. Equipment cost $50,000 Salvage 5,000 Useful life 5 Tax rate 21% Depreciation for book and tax purposes is as follows: Book Tax 20X1 9,000 20,000 20X2 9,000 12,000 20X3 9,000 7,200 20X4 9,000 4,320 20X5 9,000 1,480 What is the deferred taxes payable balance as of December 31, 20X3?
Answer:
$2,562
Explanation:
Excess tax depreciation 20X1 = 20,000 - 9,000 = $11,000
Excess tax depreciation 20X2 = 12,000 - 9,000 = $3,000
Excess tax depreciation 20X3 = 7,200 - 9,000 = ($1,800)
Total Excess tax depreciation $12,200
Deferred taxes payable balance,Dec 31. 20X3 = Total Excess tax depreciation * Tax rate = $12,200 * 21% = $2,562 Credit

Under absorption costing, which of the following costs would not be included in finished goods inventory?
Oa. variable and fixed factory overhead cost
Ob. variable and fixed selling and administrative expenses
Oc. direct labor cost
Od. direct materials cost
Answer: variable and fixed factory overhead cost
Explanation:
Matrix Inc. calculates cost for an equivalent unit of production using both the weighted-average and the FIFO methods.
Data for July:
Work-in-process inventory, July 1 (36,000 units):
Direct materials (100% completed) $122,400
Conversion (50% completed) 76,800
Balance in work in process inventory, July 1 $199,200
Units started during July 90,000
Units completed and transferred 102,000
Work-in-process inventory, July 31:
Direct materials (100% completed) 24,000
Conversion (50% completed)
Cost incurred during July:
Direct materials $180,000
Conversion costs 288,000
Cost per equivalent unit for conversion under the FIFO method is calculated to be:__________
(please provide step by step solution for further understanding)
a) $2.40.
b) $3.20.
c) $3.00.
d) $3.10.
e) $2.00.
Answer:
c) $3.00
Explanation:
The FIFO method assumes that the cost of the Beginning Work In Process will automatically go towards the completed units, because the units that were incomplete for the previous period are the first to be completed in the current period. Thus, we are only interested in the current costs instead of getting a weighted average (combining the cost of last year in beginning inventory and the cost of the current period).
Step 1
Calculate the equivalent units
To finish Beginning work in Process (36,000 x 50%) = 18,000
Started and Completed (102,000 - 36,000) x 100% = 66,000
Ending Work In Process (24,000 x 50%) = 12,000
Equivalent units of production for conversion Costs = 96,000
Step 2
Determine the Conversion Costs for the Current period
Conversion Costs incurred = $288,000
Step 3
Determine the Cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs
Cost per equivalent unit = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent units
therefore,
Cost per equivalent unit = $288,000 ÷ 96,000 = $3.00
What happens to your employer-sponsored retirement plan if you decide to change employers?
Answer:
Most 401 (k) or IRA accounts allow employees to roll-over their accounts from the old employer to the new employer.
