Grensfield, a state in Markova, is struggling to allocate sufficient financial resources to its employee pension funds. To fulfill its obligations to the pensioners of the state, Grensfield needs to raise funds to provide the promised pension benefits. In this case, which of the following actions by Grensfield to raise funds is likely to receive the most support from the public?
a. Coupling employee contribution plans with tax exemption benefits
b. Banning all types of labor unions
c. Doing away with employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) and 401(k) plans
d. Requesting extensive employee involvement in defined contribution pension plans
Answer:
The action by Grensfield State that is likely to receive the most support from the public is:
a. Coupling employee contribution plans with tax exemption benefits
Explanation:
The employees of Grensfield State, including the public, would support pension contribution plans that are coupled with tax exemption benefits. The exemption benefits make contribution plans attractive to the workers. Engaging in any of the other three actions will not solve the pending problem nor win the support of the public to the state government's plans.

n any quarter the college needs to make available 8 less English sections than Math sections. In any quarter student demand for the optional Philosophy course is half as many sections as English sections. Available classrooms limit the total sections of all three courses to 48 Given these constraints how many sections of each course should the college make available each quarter to meet demand
Answer:
math = 24
English = 16
Philosophy = 8
Explanation:
Given that the college needs to make 8 less English courses available compared to math In each quarter
Let English = x , math = x + 8 ( in each quarter )
philosophy demand by student in each quarter = 1/2*x = x/2
limit of all three courses in a classroom = 48
i.e. x + (x+ 8 ) + x/2 = 48
= 2x + x/2 = 48 - 8
= 2x + x/2 = 40 ∴ 5x / 2 = 40
hence : x = 80 / 5 = 16
The number of sections of each course that the college should make available in each quarter to meet demand
math = x + 8 = 16 + 8 = 24
English = x = 16
Philosophy = x/2 = 16 / 2 = 8
Answer:
Math = 24
English = 16
Philosophy = 8

The following facts relate to Oriole Corporation.
1. Deferred tax liability, January 1, 2020, $41,600.
2. Deferred tax asset, January 1, 2020, $0.
3. Taxable income for 2020, $98,800.
4. Pretax financial income for 2020, $104,000.
5. Cumulative temporary difference at December 31, 2020, giving rise to future taxable amounts, $249,600.
6. Cumulative temporary difference at December 31, 2020, giving rise to future deductible amounts, $36,400.
7. Tax rate for all years, 20%.
8. The company is expected to operate profitably in the future.
1. Compute income taxes payable for 2020:
2. Prepare the journal entry to record income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable for 2020.
3. Prepare the income tax expense section of the income statement for 2020, beginning with the line "Income before income taxes."
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The income taxes payable for 2020 will be:
= Taxable income for 2020 × Tax rate
= $98,800 × 20%
= $98,800 × 0.2
= $19760
b. The journal entry to record income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable for 2020 goes thus:
Income tax expense:
= Pretax financial income for 2020 × Tax rate
= $104,000 × 20%
= $104,000 × 0.2
= $20800
The income taxes payable = $19760
Cumulative temporary difference at December 31, 2020, giving rise to future taxable amounts = $249,600
Deferred tax liability required at December 31, 2020:
= $249,600 × 20%
= $49920
Deferred tax liability, January 1, 2020 = $41600
Therefore, the increase in deferred tax liability in 2020 will be:
= $49920 - $41600
= $8320
Cumulative temporary difference at December 31, 2020, giving rise to future deductible amounts = $36,400
Deferred tax assets balance required at December 31, 2020 will be:
= $36,400 × 20%
= $36400 × 0.2
= $7280
Deferred tax asset, January 1, 2020 = $0
Therefore, the increase in the deferred tax asset in 2020 will be:
= $7280 - 0
= $7,280
Therefore, the journal entry will be:
Debit Income Tax Expense = $20800
Debit Defered Tax Asset = $7,280
Credit Income Tax Payable = $19760
Credit Defered Tax Liability = $8320
(To record income tax expense, defered assets and defered liabilities)
c. The income tax expense section of the income statement for 2020 will be:
Income before Income Tax = $104000
Less: Income Tax expense - Current = $19760
Less: Income Tax expense - Defered = $1040
Net income = $83200
A company is trying to estimate the cost of debt for a new project. For their estimate, they will find the yield to maturity on existing company bonds. They have one outstanding bond issue at the moment that will mature in 15.00 years. The bond pays an annual coupon of 9.00%, with a face value of $1,000. The bond currently trades at 92.00% of face value. What is the yield to maturity on the existing debt
Answer:
Yield to maturity =9.9%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity is the return on debt expressed in percentage. It can be used to worked as follows using the formula below
YTM =( C + F-P/n) ÷ ( 1/2× (F+P))
C- annual coupon,
F- face value ,
P- current price,
n- number of years to maturity
YM - Yield to maturity
C- 9%× 1000 =90 , P- 92×1000= 920, F- 1000
AYM = 90 + (1000-920)/15 ÷ 1/2× (1000+920)
= 95.33 ÷ 960
Yield to maturity =9.9%

A review of current distribution procedures reveals that the Valley Voice employs 100 truck drivers to drop off bundles of newspapers to 1,300 teenagers who deliver papers to individual homes. The drivers are paid an hourly wage while the teenagers receive 4 cents for each paper they deliver.
Turkey is considering an alternative method of distributing the papers, which he says has worked in other cities the size of Flower Mound (where the Valley Voice is published). Under the new system, the newspaper would retain 20 truck drivers to transport papers to five distribution centers around the city. The distribution centers are operated by independent contractors who would be responsible for making their own arrangements to deliver papers to subscribers’ homes. The 20 drivers retained by the Valley Voice would receive the same hourly rate as they currently earn, and the independent contractors would receive 20 cents for each paper delivered.
Required:
1. What payroll information does Turkey need in order to make a decision about adopting the alternative distribution method?
2. Assume the following information:
a. The average driver earns $42,000 per year.
b. Average employee income tax withholding is 15 percent.
c. The social security tax is 6.2 percent of the first $122,700 of earnings.
d. The Medicare tax is 1.45 percent of all earnings.
e. The state unemployment tax is 5 percent, and the federal unemployment tax is 0.6 percent of the first $7,000 of earnings.
f. Workers’ compensation insurance is 70 cents per $100 of wages.
g. The paper pays $300 per month for health insurance for each driver and contributes $250 per month to each driver’s pension plan.
h. The paper has liability insurance coverage for all teenage carriers that costs $100,000 per year.
3. Prepare a schedule showing the costs of distributing the newspapers under the current system and the proposed new system. Based on your analysis, which system would you recommend to Turkey?
4. What other factors, monetary and nonmonetary, might influence your decision?
Question Completion:
The Valley Voice is a local newspaper that is published Monday through Friday. It sells 90,000 coples dally. The paper is currently in a profit squeeze, and the publisher, Tom Turkey, Is looking for ways to reduce expenses.
Answer:
Valley Voice
1. It needs to know the total costs incurred under the old system and the new system.
2. See schedules below showing the costs under the two distribution systems.
3. The old system wins under economic considerations, especially given the fact that the publisher is currently experiencing profit squeeze.
4. If the amount paid per paper to the independent contractors can be renegotiated downwards, this may change the decision. With the new arrangement, will more papers be sold each day? Labor practices and laws do not favor the use of teenagers as workers. Will the company face some penalties or sanctions as a result? What about the bad publicity that the paper will face as a backlash following the use of teenagers? There are other considerations.

avoid employment in companies whose values seem incompatible with their own values.
Explanation:
Unemployment rate refers to the percentage of the total labor force in an economy, who are unemployed but seeking to be gainfully employed. The unemployment rate is divided into various types, these include;
I. Natural Rate of Unemployment (NU).
II. Frictional unemployment rate (FU).
III. Structural unemployment rate (SU).
IV. Actual unemployment rate (AU).
V. Cyclical unemployment rate (CU).
The attraction-selection-attrition (ASA) theory was developed and introduced by Benjamin Schneider. This theory typically gives the reason why a business firm or organization looks and feels the way it does with respect to the employees and employers.
According to the attraction-selection-attrition (ASA) theory, job applicants avoid employment in companies whose values seem incompatible with their own values. Also, it states that job applicants are usually attracted to colleagues having similar assumptions and values.
Pamela was the agent in charge of distribution and collections for the Coble Dairy Products Cooperative. Thrower operated a grocery store and purchased dairy products from Coble. Pamela made false invoice sheets, showing delivery to Thrower of greater quantities than Thrower actually had ordered or received. Pamela collected from Thrower on the basis of these increased amounts, and then kept for herself the difference between the increased amounts and the amounts that should have been charged. When Thrower learned of this, he sued Coble for the excess payments he had made. Coble denied that Pamela was its agent in making excess collections. Will Thrower win?
Answer: Yes
Explanation:
This is an example of the law of agency. Since Pamela has been representing Coble in the past and engaging in transactions on behalf of Coble, any actions taking by Pamela is bidding on Coble which means that Thrower has the right to feel aggrieved with Coble and will win the case.

The IRS agent who audited the Form 1120 filed by Alano Inc. concluded that $300,000 of the salary that Alano paid to its CEO and sole shareholder was a constructive dividend. As a result: Multiple Choice The CEO/shareholder's taxable income increases by $300,000. Alano must distribute an additional $300,000 cash to the CEO/shareholder Alano must distribute an additional $300,000 cash to the CEO/shareholder. Alano's taxable income increases by $300,000.
Answer: Alano's taxable income increases by $300,000.
Explanation:
Constructive dividends are paid to a shareholder and classified in such a way that they are not to be seen as taxable dividends.
If during auditing however, the IRS determines that it was indeed a taxable dividend, it becomes a constructive dividend.
Constructive dividends are taxable by definition so Alano's taxable income increases by the amount of dividend of $300,000.

Which of the following is not true of the 3 level variance analysis of operating income?
a. Level 2 shows the direct material price and efficiency variances
b. Level 2 shows the sales-volume variance for operating income
c. Level 3 shows the fixed overhead production volume variance as a component of the sales-volume variance for operating income
d. Level 1 shows the static budget variance for operating income
Answer:
The option that is not true of the 3 level variance analysis of operating income is:
a. Level 2 shows the direct material price and efficiency variances
Explanation:
The operating income can be analyzed in three levels. The first level is the static budget versus actual results variance, which shows the difference between the planning budget and the actual results. The second level is the sale-volume variance, while the third level shows the fixed overhead variance. This can be collapsed into level 2, with the final level showing more details about direct material price and efficiency variances, etc.
Scott Bestor is an accountant for Westfield Company. Early this year, Scott made a highly favorable projection of sales and profits over the next 3 years for Westfield's hot-selling computer PLEX. As a result of the projections Scott presented to senior management, the company decided to expand production in this area. This decision led to dislocations of some plant personnel who were reassigned to one of the company's newer plants in another state. However, no one was fired, and in fact the company expanded its workforce slightly. Unfortunately, Scott rechecked his projection computations a few months later and found that he had made an error that would have reduced his projections substantially. Luckily, sales of PLEX have exceeded projections so far, and management is satisfied with its decision. Scott, however, is not sure what to do. Should he confess his honest mistake and jeopardize his possible promotion
Answer:
Scott Bestor should confess his honest mistake.
Explanation:
Two of most important attributes that are required from an accountant are integrity and trustworthiness.
Refusing to tell the management his honest mistake in order not jeopardize his possible promotion is a short-run gain to him. But confessing his honest mistake has a long run gain as this will preserve his integrity and trustworthiness forever. In addition, it is unethical and a sign of disloyalty for an accountant not to disclose all the information relevant to the company based on his position as an account.
Therefore, Scott Bestor should confess his honest mistake rather than sacrificing his integrity and trustworthiness as well as the ethic of his profession for a short-term gain (i.e. promotion).

Answer:
$34.39
Explanation:
EBIT = EBT + Interest Expense
EBIT = 369.00 + 50
EBIT = $419
Tax Rate = Tax / EBT
Tax Rate = 147.60 / 419
Tax Rate = 0.352267
Tax Rate = 35.23%
Working Capital, 2017 = Current Assets, 2017 - Current Liabilities, 2017
Working Capital, 2017 = 595 - 345
Working Capital, 2017 = $250
Working Capital, 2016 = Current Assets, 2017 - Current Liabilities, 2017
Working Capital, 2016 = 430 - 265
Working Capital, 2016 = $165
Change in Working Capital = Working Capital, 2017 - Working Capital, 2016
Change in Working Capital = $250 - $165
Change in Working Capital = $85
Capital Expenditure = Net Fixed Assets, 2017 - Net Fixed Assets, 2016
Capital Expenditure = $304 - $152
Capital Expenditure = $152
Free Cash Flow = EBIT * (1 - Tax Rate) - Change in Working Capital - Capital Expenditure
Free Cash Flow = $419*(1- 35.23%) - $85 - $152
Free Cash Flow = $271.39 - $85 - $152
Free Cash Flow = $34.39
The free cash flow for 2017 for Monarch Textiles, Inc. is $34.39

A company has current assets of 100,000, total assets of 250,000, current liabilities of 20,000, and long-term liabilities of 50,000. How much of its existing current assets can the company use to acquire equipment without allowing its current ratio to decline below 2.0 to 1
Answer:
$60,000
Explanation:
The computation is shown below
Here the current liabilities is $20,000
And, the current ratio is 2:1
So, as we know that
The current ratio = Current assets ÷ current liabilities
So, the current asset is $40,000
= $40,000 ÷ 20,000
= 2.0 to 1
Now the amount required to purchase an equipment is
= $100,000 - $40,000
= $60,000
