Murphy Company, a cash-basis, calendar-year taxpayer, received a call on December 28, year 1, from a client stating that a check for $9,000 as payment in full for their services can be picked up at their offices, two blocks away, any weekday between 1:00 and 6:00 P.M. Murphy does not pick up the check until January 3, year 2. In which year does Murphy recognize the income?
Answer:
Murphy Company
The year in which Murphy recognizes the income is year 2.
Explanation:
As a cash basis taxpayer, Murphy Company reports income and deductions in the year that they are actually paid or received. Similarly, as a cash basis taxpayer, Murphy Company deducts expenses in the year the expenses are paid off, which is not necessarily the year they were incurred. The income for services of $9,000 rendered to a customer, for which payment was received on January 3, year 2, will be recognized in year 2 and not in year 1 when the services were performed.
Which of the following statements best reflects a price-taking firm? a The firm has an incentive to charge less than the market price to earn higher revenue b If the firm were to charge more than the going price, it would sell none of its goods c The firm can sell only a limited amount of output at the market price befo
Answer:
b
Explanation:
A price taking firm is a firm that must sell at the price determined by the forces of demand and supply. This is typical of firms that in industries that sell identical products.
If the firm charges a price higher than equilibrium price, customers would go to other suppliers and the firm would sell known of its product.
There would be no incentive for a firm to sell below equilibrium price because it would be earning losses.
An example of an industry characterised by price taking firms are perfectly competitive industries.
For example, a farmer selling oranges is an example of a price taking firm
The cost of equipment purchased by Sheridan, Inc., on June 1, 2020, is $107,100. It is estimated that the machine will have a $6,300 salvage value at the end of its service life. Its service life is estimated at 7 years, its total working hours are estimated at 50,400, and its total production is estimated at 630,000 units. During 2020, the machine was operated 6,480 hours and produced 59,400 units. During 2021, the machine was operated 5,940 hours and produced 51,800 units.
Compute depreciation expense on the machine for the year ending December 31, 2020, and the year ending December 31, 2021, using the following methods. (Round depreciation per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and final answers to decimal places, e-g. 45,892.)
2020 2021
(a) Straight-line
(b) Units-of-output
(c) Working hours
(d) Sum-of-the-years'digits
(e) Double-declining-balance (twice the straight-line rate) $
Answer:
(a) Straight-line
depreciable value = $107,100 - $6,300 = $100,800
depreciation expense per year = $100,800 / 7 = $14,400
depreciation expense 2020 = $14,400
depreciation expense 2021 = $14,400
(b) Units-of-output
depreciable value = $107,100 - $6,300 = $100,800
depreciation expense per unit = $100,800 / 630,000 = $0.16
depreciation expense 2020 = $0.16 x 59,400 = $9,504
depreciation expense 2021 = $0.16 x 51,800 = $8,288
(c) Working hours
depreciable value = $107,100 - $6,300 = $100,800
depreciation expense per working hour = $100,800 / 50,400 = $2
depreciation expense 2020 = $2 x 6,480 = $12,960
depreciation expense 2021 = $2 x 5,940 = $11,880
(d) Sum-of-the-years' digits
depreciable value = $107,100 - $6,300 = $100,800
depreciation expense 2020 = $100,800 x 7/28 = $25,200
depreciation expense 2021 = $100,800 x 6/28 = $21,600
(e) Double-declining-balance (twice the straight-line rate)
depreciation expense 2020 = $100,800 x 2/7 = $28,800
depreciation expense 2021 = $72,000 x 2/7 = $20,571
On January 1, 2012, Sunland Company purchased for $690000, equipment having a useful life of ten years and an estimated salvage value of $40200.

As a result of this sale, Sunland should recognize a gain of
Answer:
$54,820
Explanation:
The computation of the gain is shown below;
But before that following calculations must be done
Annual depreciation as per the straight-line method
= ($690,000 - $40,200) ÷ (10 years)
= $64,980
Now accumulated depreciation for 9 years is
= $64,980 × 9 years
= $584,820
Now the book value is
= $690,000 - $584,820
= $105,180
Now the gain is
= Sale value - book value
= $160,000 - $105,180
= $54,820
Take-home pay is about 70% of gross pay. If your annual salary is $40,000

The following units of an inventory item were available for sale during the year. Use this information to answer the following questions.
Beginning inventory 10 units at $55
First purchase 25 units at $60
Second purchase 30 units at $65
Third purchase 15 units at $70
The firm uses the periodic inventory system. During the year, 60 units of the item were sold.
The value of ending inventory using FIFO is:________
a. $1,350
b. $1,150
c. $1,375
d. $1,250
Answer:
The value of ending inventory using FIFO is $1,375
Explanation:
Under FIFO the items of inventory purchases earlier will be sold first and the items purchased later will be sold at last.
First, we need to calculate the total available inventory units
Numbers of units available to sale = Beginning Inventory + First purchase + Second purchase + Third purchase = 10 units + 25 units + 30 units + 15 units = 80 units
Now 60 units out of 80 are sold the remaining 20 units ( 80 units - 60 units ) will be in the ending inventory.
As per FIFO 20 units will be values as per the last 20 units purchases which will be as follow
Ending Invetory = ( 15 units x $70 ) + ( (20-15) units x $65 ) = $1,375
During a meeting with a potential customer, you are asked to explain the difference between two different types of systems that your company is developing. Although you feel confident that you correctly explained the systems, after the meeting you realize that you inadvertently confused some of the characteristics, and partly described a third system that the customer had not even asked about. The systems are still prototypes and there is no publicly available information about them, so it is unlikely that the potential customer will realize that you confused the systems and are not up-to-date on your company's products. What should you do?
Answer:
First, update your knowledge of the company's product (especially at this development stage). The purpose is for a demonstration of general knowledge and not for you to provide all the technical details to the potential customers. So, try to stick to the claims about the product's performance and not the details.
Secondarily, request for the documentation of research and development activities. This will provide some literature for the sales and marketing efforts to be effective. Study the available data about the product development, customer requirements, and lifecycle.
Explanation:
In marketing newly developed products, the marketing personnel should bear in mind that effective communication of value to the potential customers is what is required at the initial stage, without too much details. The effort should be to convince customers of the value of the products under development.

Common stock, $1 par value, 2,000 shares. Total dividends declared in 2012 were $50,000. The total amount of dividends to which common stockholders are entitled is
Answer:
$45,000
