Answer: $2722
Explanation:
Ensley's automobile deduction under the actual cost method is calculated below:
Gas and oil = $1800
Add: Insurance = $980
Add: Repairs = $360
Add: Licenses and registration fees = $50
Total Expenses = $3190
We then calculate the business usage which will be:
= 80% of $3190
= 0.8 × $3190
= $2552
We then add the cost of business parking and tolls, then the total deduction will be:
= $2552 + $170
= $2722
At the end of April, Cavy Company had completed Jobs 766 and 765. The individual job cost sheets reveal the following information:Job Direct Materials Direct Labor Machine HoursJob 765 $6,160 $1,848 22Job 766 13,338 4,212 78Job 765 produced 132 units, and Job 766 consisted of 234 units.Assuming that the predetermined overhead rate is applied by using machine hours at a rate of $107 per hour.a. Determine the balance on the job cost sheets for each job.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The balance on the job cost sheets for each job will be:
Job 765:
Direct materials = $6160
Direct labor = $1848
Overhead cost = 22 × $107 = $2354
Total job cost = $6160 + $1848 + $2354 = $10362
Job 766:
Direct materials = $13338
Direct labor = $4212
Overhead cost = 78 × $107 = $8346
Total job cost = $13338 + $4212 + $8346 = $25896

The aggregate demand curve is downward sloping because production costs decline as real GDP increases. is upward sloping because a higher price level is necessary to make production profitable as production costs rise. shows the amount of expenditures required to induce the production of each possible level of real GDP. shows the amount of real GDP that will be demanded at each possible price level. g
Answer: shows the amount of real GDP that will be demanded at each possible price level.
Explanation:
The Aggregate Demand curve shows how much of real GDP is demanded at each possible price level which means that is shows the effect of the price level on real GDP.
If the price level rises, real GDP will decrease and if the price level falls, real GDP rises. This is why the aggregate demand curve is downward sloping, to reflect this inverse relationship between real GDP and price level.
External failure activities A. seek to prevent defects in the products or services being produced. B inspect inputs and attributes of individual units of products or services to detect whether they conform to specifications or customer expectations. C. correct defective processes or products and services before they are delivered to customers. D. are activities required after defective products or services are delivered to customers.
Answer:
D. are activities required after defective products or services are delivered to customers.
Explanation:
Six Sigma is a quality business management strategy which helps business organizations to improve the quality of processes, products and services by discovering and eliminating defects, variations or errors. It is a strategic business concept that was developed in 1986 by Motorola.
Under the six sigma approach, any process that doesn't provide customer satisfaction or causes challenges in an organisation's process should be eliminated from the system in order to produce quality products and services. It allows only 3.4 defective features for every million opportunities and as such expects processes to be defect free 99.99966 percent of the time.
The following activities are carried out in accordance with the Six Sigma model;
External failure activities are activities required after defective products or services are delivered to customers.
The other terminologies used in the manufacturing process includes;
- Prevention: seek to prevent defects in the products or services being produced.
- Appraisal: inspect inputs and attributes of individual units of products or services to detect whether they conform to specifications or customer expectations.
- Internal failure activities: correct defective processes or products and services before they are delivered to customers.
Before year-end adjusting entries, Dunn Company's account balances at December 31, 2010, for accounts receivable and the related allowance for uncollectible accounts were $600,000 and $45,000, respectively. An aging of accounts receivable indicated that $62,500 of the December 31 receivables are expected to be uncollectible. The net realizable value of accounts receivable after adjustment is
Answer: $537500
Explanation:
The net realizable value of accounts receivable after adjustment will be the difference between the account receivable at December 31st and the expected uncollectible. This will be:
= $600,000 - $62,500
= $537500
Therefore, the answer is $537500
Woolsey Corporation, a U.S. company, expects to sell goods to a British customer at a price of 250,000 pounds, with delivery and payment to be made on October 24. On July 24, Woolsey purchased a three-month put option for 250,000 British pounds and designated this option as a cash flow hedge of a forecasted foreign currency transaction expected to be completed in late October. The following exchange rates apply:
Option Strike Price = $2.17
Option Cost : $4,000
July 24th Spot Rate : $2.17
October 24th Spot Rate :$2.13
October 24th Option Premium : $.04
What amount will Woolsey include as Adjustment to Net Income for the period ended October 31?
A. $6,000 positive.
B. $6,000 negative.
C. $10,000 positive.
D. $10,000 negative.
E. $14,000 positive.
Answer:
C. $10,000 positive.
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that should be included is shown below:
= (Option strike price - spot rate) × purchased put options
= ($2.17 - $2.13) × 250,000
= $10,000
As the spot rate is less than the strike price so automatically there is a gain of $10,000
Hence, the option c is correct
Vegas Corp. is a U.S. firm that exports most of its products to Canada. It historically invoiced its products in Canadian dollars to accommodate the importers. However, it was adversely affected when the Canadian dollar weakened against the U.S. dollar. Since Vegas did not hedge, its Canadian dollar receivables were converted into a relatively small amount of U.S. dollars. After a few more years of continual concern about possible exchange rate movements, Vegas called its customers and requested that they pay for future orders with U.S. dollars instead of Canadian dollars. At this time, the Canadian dollar was valued at $.81. The customers decided to oblige, since the number of Canadian dollars to be converted into U.S. dollars when importing the goods from Vegas was still slightly smaller than the number of Canadian dollars that would be needed to buy the product from a Canadian manufacturer. Based on this situation, has transaction exposure changed for Vegas Corp.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Transaction exposure is the uncertainty
which is faced by businesses that are involved in international trade. It occurs when there's fluctuation in the exchange rates after a financial obligation has been done by a firm.
From the question above, we can agree that there will be a change in transaction exposure for the company as there'll be a reduction in the transaction exposure. This is because future orders will be in U.S. dollars instead of Canadian dollars.

Tar Heel Auto Parts owns a manufacturing facility that is currently sitting idle. The facility is located on a piece of land that cost $134,000 at the time Tar Heel Auto Parts bought it (several years ago). The facility itself cost $700,000 to build. The current book values of the land and the facility are $134,000 and $214,000, respectively. Tar Heel Auto Parts received a bid of $640,000 for the land and facility last week. They rejected this bid even though they were told that it is a reasonable offer in today's market. If Tar Heel Auto Parts were to consider using this land and facility in a new project, what cost, if any, should they include in the project analysis?
Answer:
Tar Heel Auto Parts
The cost that Tar Heel Auto Parts should include in their new project analysis for the land and facility should be:
= $640,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Analysis:
Cost Book Value
Cost of a piece of land $134,000 $134,000
Cost of idle manufacturing facility $700,000 $214,000
Current market value of the land and facility = $640,000
b) The current market value of Tar Heel's land and facility is the relevant cost for project analysis. The book value and the cost prices are no longer relevant as they relate to the past and are sunk and historical costs. Sunk and historical costs do not make any difference in decision making. The fair or current market value is a future value that is useful for Tar Heel's project analysis and decision making.

Answer:
a) The equilibrium value of Y is 41,180.
b) The value of autonomous consumption (c0) is 12557.
c) The value of MPC is 0.5.
d) The value of MPS is 0.5.
e) The value of APC is 0.70
f) The value of APS is 0.30
g) Private saving is 32286; Public saving is -1305; and National saving is 30981
h) Multiplier = 2
i) The equilibrium value of Y increases by $300.
j) The equilibrium value of Y decreases by $150.
k) The equilibrium value of Y increases by $150.
Explanation:
Note: The model is not complete as the figures in it are omitted. The complete model of the economy is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
C = 12557 + 0.5YD
I = 2281
G = 10199
T = 8894
The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:
a) What is the equilibrium value of Y?
YD = Y - T .............. (1)
Equilibrium value of Y can be obtained using the following formula:
Y = C + G + I ............................ (2)
Substituting all the values into equation (2), we have:
Y = 12557 + 0.5YD + 2281 + 10199 ………………….. (3)
Substituting equation (1) into equation (3), we have:
Y = 12557 + 0.5(Y – T) + 2281 + 10199 ……………… (4)
Substitute T = 8894 into equation (4) and solve for Y, we have:
Y = 12557 + 0.5(Y – 8894) + 2281 + 10199
Y = 12557 + 0.5Y – (0.5 * 8894) + 2281 + 10199
Y – 0.5Y = 12557 – (0.5 * 8894) + 2281 + 10199
(1 - 0.5)Y = 20590
0.5Y = 20590
Y = 20590/0.5
Y = 41,180
b) What is the value of autonomous consumption (c0)?
From C = 12557 + 0.5YD, the value of autonomous consumption (c0) is 12557.
c) What is the value of MPC?
From C = 12557 + 0.5YD, the value of MPC is 0.5.
d) What is the value of MPS?
MPS = 1 – MPC = 1 – 0.5 = 0.5
e) What is the value of APC?
YD = Y – T = 41180 – 8894 = 32286
C = 12557 + 0.5YD = C = 12557 + (0.5 * 32286) = 28,700
APC = C / Y = 28700 / 41,180 = 0.70
Note: This is not part of the answer but just additional information. Sometimes, YD is used. Then, we have:
APC = C / YD = 28700 / 32286 = 0.89
f) What is the value of APS?
APS = 1 – APC = 1 – 0.70 = 0.30
Note: This is not part of the answer but just additional information. If YD is used to calculate APC as it can be done sometimes, then we have:
APC = C / YD = 28700 / 32286 = 0.89
APS = 1 – APC = 1 – 0.89 = 0.11
g) Calculate private saving, public saving and national saving.
Private saving = Y – T = 41180 – 8894 = 32286
Public saving = T – G = 8894 – 10199 = -1305
National saving = Private saving + Public saving = 32286 -1305 = 30981
h) Calculate the multiplier.
Multiplier = 1 / MPS = 1 / 0.5 = 2
i) What happens to the equilibrium value of Y if G increases by $150?
Change in Y = Increase in G * Multiplier = $150 * 2 = $300
Since it is positive, it implies that the equilibrium value of Y increases by $300
j) What happens to the equilibrium value of Y if T increases by $150, and G remains at its original value of ?
Tax multiplier = - MPC/MPS =-0.5/0.5 = -1.0
Change in Y = Increase in T * Tax multiplier = $150 * (-1.0) = -$150
Since it is negative, it implies that the equilibrium value of Y decreases by $150.
k) What happens to the equilibrium value of Y if both G & T increase by $150 from their original amounts?
Change in Y = Change in Y as a result of change in G + Change Y as a result change in T = $300 + (-$150) = $300 - $150 = $150
Since it is positive, it implies that the equilibrium value of Y increases by $150.
The Rob Wallace Corporation has a sales budget for next month of $400,000. Cost of goods sold is expected to be $250,000. All goods are paid for in the month following their purchase. The beginning inventory of merchandise is $16,000, and an ending inventory of $12,000 is desired. Beginning accounts payable is $52,000. How much merchandise inventory will The Rob Wallace Corporation need to purchase next month
Answer: $246000
Explanation:
The amount of merchandise inventory that The Rob Wallace Corporation need to purchase next month will be:
Expected Cost of goods sold = $250000
Less: Beginning Inventory = $16000
Add: Desired Ending Inventory = $12000
The, the Required Purchase of merchandise inventory will be:
= $250000 + $12000 - $16000
= $246000
Pearsall Company has a defined benefit pension plan. On December 31 (the end of the fiscal year), the company received the PBO report from the actuary. The following information was included in the report: ending PBO, $113,000; benefits paid to retirees, $14,500; interest cost, $7,500. The discount rate applied by the actuary was 10%. What was the service cost for the year
Answer:
$45,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the service cost for the year
PBO, $113,000
Add benefits paid to retirees, $14,500
Less interest cost ($7,500)
Less Beginning PBO ($75,000)
($7,500/0.1)
Service cost $45,000
($113,000+$14,500-$7,500-$75,000)
Therefore the service cost for the year will be $45,000

On January 1, 2021, the Montgomery Company agreed to purchase a building by making six payments. The first three are to be $37,000 each, and will be paid on December 31, 2021, 2022, and 2023. The last three are to be $52,000 each and will be paid on December 31, 2024, 2025, and 2026. Montgomery borrowed other money at a 11% annual rate. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Required: 1. At what amount should Montgomery record the note payable and corresponding cost of the building on January 1, 2021
Answer:
cost of the building = $183,331.14
Explanation:
we have to calculate the present value of all the future annual payments using the 11% discount rate:
$37,000 x 2.4437 (PVIFA, 11%, 3 periods) = $90,416.90
($52,000 x 2.4437) / (1 + 11%)³ = $92,914.24
total present value = $183,331.14

Tinker was incorporated in year 2, and Mark and Lucy purchased their stock in year 4. Their adjusted basis in Chance was $200,000. Chance was incorporated in year 2, and Mark and Lucy were original stockholders. Both stocks were purchased for cash, and each corporation had total capital of $500,000. How much ordinary loss can Mark and Lucy deduct on their joint year 8 tax return as a result of these transactions
Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
Adjusted basis in Tinker = $300,000
Tinker was incorporated in year 2 and Mark and Lucy purchased their stock in Year 4
adjusted basis in chance was $200,000, each corporation had total capital of $500,000
Determine how much ordinary loss can mark and Lucy deduct on their joint year 8 tax return
If your value of share falls and you suffer loss, due to section 1244 stock the taxpayer is allowed to deduct loss as an ordinary loss up to maximum of $50,000 for single and $100,000 if MFJ
Hence the loss to be calculated
sales consideration $---
less adjusted tax basis/ loss = ($20,000 )
based on section 1244 mark and Lucy loss of complete $20,000 will be allowed since it is below $100,000
Poehling Medical Center has a single operating room that is used by local physicians to perform surgical procedures. The cost of using the operating room is accumulated by each patient procedure and includes the direct materials costs (drugs and medical devices), physician surgical time, and operating room overhead. On January 1 of the current year, the annual operating room overhead is estimated to be: Disposable supplies $278,900 Depreciation expense 69,800 Utilities 29,800 Nurse salaries 259,300 Technician wages 118,200 Total operating room overhead $756,000 The overhead costs will be assigned to procedures, based on the number of surgical room hours. Poehling Medical Center expects to use the operating room an average of eight hours per day, seven days per week. In addition, the operating room will be shut down two weeks per year for general repairs. This information has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file. Open the spreadsheet, perform the required analysis, and input your answers in the questions below.1. Determine the predetermined operating room overhead rate for the year.
2. Bill Harris has a five-hours procedure on Jan 22. How much operating room overhead would be charged to his procedure, using the rate determined in part 1?
3. During January, the operating room was used 240 hours. The actual overhead costs incurred for January were $67,250. Determine the overhead under or over applied for the period.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Total number of surgical room hours= (8*7)*52= 2,912 hours
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 756,000 / 2,912
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $259.61 per surgical room hour
Now, we can allocate costs using the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 259.61*5
Allocated MOH= $1,298.05
Finally, the under/over allocation for January:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Allocated overhead= 259.61*240= $62,306.4
Under/over applied overhead= 67,250 - 62,306.4
Underapplied overhead= $4,943.6
When the original poverty line was created, even some people living above the poverty line did not have access to a phone or running water in their homes.
Today, running water is expected. Beyond that, the norm for our contemporary society includes having cell phones and internet access. In fact, the U.S. government provides grants to bring high-speed in-home internet access to underserved rural areas.
Consider both the benefits and the shortcomings of the U.S. poverty line as a means of assessing poverty today.
The U.S. poverty line was originally set at
a. an income level of $1.90 per day.
b. sufficient income to provide for a family of four.
c. one-third of the median income in the United States.
d. three times the cost of a low-cost food plan.
Answer:
d. three times the cost of a low-cost food plan.
Explanation:
The U.S. poverty line is measured based on three times the cost of low-cost food plan. The people in the rural areas are considered more poor and they are provided with basic necessities. The U.S. government takes initiatives to encourage rural population to contribute their expertise and strengths in some projects. They provide welfare benefit to those who are needy and can not survive on their earnings.
A policy maker argues that congestion on the roads can be solved by private ownership of the roads. He argues that if the roads were privately owned, then the externality of congestion would be fully internalized and solved by the market. Discuss this by first explaining the externality problem that leads to congestion, and then explain whether the private market would deliver the efficient level of roads.
Answer:
Externalities can be defined as those activities that incurs cost on another party.
Road congestion creates externalities such as increased time for travel, more pollution in a city, more likelihood of accidents, more stress for road users.
This externaliity is caused because road users think of the private benefits that they can get from using the road but they do not take the social cost into account. We have lots of drivers on the road and non of these drivers takes cognizance of the cost that other drivers get because of this.
If road are private, congestion is going to fall and there would be excludability. But this is a public good, turning it to a private good would cause issues. Private markets benefits out is positive externalities.
The term "externality" refers to elements and situations that occur off-road and cause congestion.
In this regard, we can say that:
The externality of congestion is created by the lack of urban infrastructure, the excess of vehicles on the streets, the lack of traffic inspection, and the lack of road maintenance.All of this allows for an accumulation of vehicles on urban roads, generating congestion, which affects the city in an imposing way.These problems have been treated as public order problems as roads are a public asset managed by the government. Many people believe that government management is the main problem and that if the roads were managed by private companies, these problems would be eliminated.
Although we can recognize that many of these externalities would be solved by private companies, treating the use of roads as a private asset would not solve the problem of congestion, as it would create other externalities, especially about the freedom to use roads.
With this, we can conclude that the externality of congestion would not be reduced with the use of private companies, but maintained with other factors.

C. The government mandates that U.S. corn producers increase the acreage they devote to corn production to keep up with demand.
D. Economists publish reports in trade magazines informing farmers of the increased demand for corn.
Answer:
a. As a result of the price increase in corn, the supply of corn would increase. At the same time, the amount of acreage used in corn production would increase.
b. The most likely cause of the change in the amount of acreage used in corn production is:
A. The higher price signals suppliers that corn is becoming more valuable.
Explanation:
With corn as the major ingredient for the production of ethanol biofuel the demand and supply of corn increase to match with the increasing price. Suppliers, on their part, increase production by utilizing more acreage of land devoted for corn production. This is the typical interplay between the market forces that drive market equilibrium.
Answer:
a. As a result of the price increase in corn, the quantity supplied of corn would increase. At the same time, the amount of acreage used in corn production would increase.
The most likely cause of the change in the amount of acreage used in corn production is the higher price signals suppliers that corn is becoming more valuable.
Explanation:
Corn is an input for ethanol biofuel. An increase in demand for ethanol biofuel results in an increase in the demand for corn. As more ethanol is being produced, more corn is used in the production process.
The increase in the demand for corn increases the price of corn. As the price of corn increases, there is an increase in the quantity supplied of corn. Farmers are growing larger quantities of corn, which results in an increase in the acreage used for corn production.
An increase in price causes a movement along the supply curve. It does not cause a shift of the supply curve.
Consumers do not directly inform farmers of their increase in the demand for corn. Price serves as the market signal. Consumers are willing to pay a higher price for corn, showing that they value corn more.
The government does not generally regulate what specific crop is grown on private farmland. Furthermore, economists may publish predictions, but farmers are most responsive to changes in market price.

Assume you are the internal controls expert for your company. Your boss has read about Madoff’s Ponzi scheme described in our textbook. Your boss is now worried that your own company, which invests a significant amount of retirement funds for its employees, could fall victim to a similar scheme. He has just sent you a memo asking: "Which specific internal controls should our company adopt to avoid falling for a scheme like this?" Respond with a memo to your boss detailing at least three internal controls that you would recommend implementing at your company, assuming none are in place right now, to minimize the risk of becoming the victim of an investment fraud. For each internal control you recommend provide: A detailed description of the policy or procedure to be implemented. An explanation of how specifically it would mitigate the risk of being defrauded. A description of any disadvantages the internal control may have. After submitting your own initial post, change hats! Now assume you are the boss; read your classmates recommendations and question/challenge them as an effective boss would.
Answer:
There are many measures a company can undertake to uplift the standards of internal controls, however few of those are enumerated as under -
1. Due Diligence - almost everyone would suggest it but the implementation differs from company to company. The term encompasses wide activities i.e. from improving quality of internal audit to upkeeping of financial records etc. Keeping a check on existing & old investment pattern would certainly help in analyzing the response of investments as per prevailing market condition. Disadvantages of the process include involvment of additional manpower and cost.
2. Choosing right Investment firms and/or Fund Manager - In the complex business market which prevails today, finding the right guy seems to be a difficult job. It is important that we carefully study not only the investment patterns and subsequent returns of the Investment firms / Fund Manager but also background, qualifications and previous legal records to arrive at suitable guy for suitable job. Sometimes we choose a skeptical but a honest guy, which may lead to sacrifice in short term gains but particulary in retirement funds with long term goals, security of funds assume priority.
3. Selecting the financial products - Today there are numerous financial products available in the market, many of them offer fancy returns but the goals of such financial products must be re-aligned to the goals of the company and its employees. For the company a decent return over long run with high degree of security is the objective when it comes to retirement funds. The financial product must have an appropriate mix of debt, equity and liquid funds and particularly the component of debt must increase with the age of an employee which will ensure security of funds by the time he attains superannuation. Disadvantage majorly includes loss of returns due to less investment in equity during the final stages of career.
Explanation:
Hamlet has monotonic, strictly convex, quasilinear preferences over widgets,x, and money to spend on other goods,m, wheremis the linear term. Consider a $1 increase in the price of widgets. Hamlet knows that he if he were given $20 after the price change, his new optimal bundle would give him exactly the same utility that he had before the price change. Which of the following can be concluded from this information? (You may assume that Hamlet's income is large enough that however many widgets he might want to buy, he'll still have money left over for other goods.)
A) Hamlet's compensating variation is $20.
B) Hamlet's equivalent variation is $20.
C) Hamlet's (net) consumer surplus falls by $20 due to the price change.
D) All of the above are true.
E) None of the above are true.
Answer:
A) Hamlet's compensating variation is $20.
Explanation:
Hamlet is expecting pay rise of $20 but he thinks that his utility will remain the same. Hamlet is not getting any extra benefit due to his pay rise and his utility is same, this is compensating variation because his initial utility is not changed. Compensating variation is the extra amount of money which is needed to reach to initial utility.
