Answer:
a. What is the opportunity cost for Carlos to produce one more bushel of apples in terms of pears?
opportunity cost to produce 1 more bushel of apples = 30 / 15 = 2 bushels of pears
b. What is the opportunity cost for Donna to produce one more bushel of apples in terms of pears?
opportunity cost to produce 1 more bushel of apples = 20 / 5 = 4 bushels of pears
c. What would Donna and Carlos agree to as acceptable terms of trade?
Donna has a comparative advantage in the production of pears, so she should produce pears and exchange them for apples produced by Carlos.
Any range between 1-2 pears (higher than 1, but lower than 2) exchanged for every apple would result in mutually beneficial trade.
On April 1, Cyclone Co. purchases a trencher for $280,000. The machine is expected to last five years and have a salvage value of $40,000. Exercise 8-12 Double-declining-balance, partial-year depreciation LO C2 Compute depreciation expense at December 31 for both the first year and second year assuming the company uses the double-declining-balance method. (Enter all amounts as positive values.)
Answer:
Year 1 = $84,000Year 2 = $78,400Explanation:
Double declining means that the asset is depreciating at double the rate that it would with straight method:
Straight line depreciation = 280,000 / 5 years
= $56,000
Rate = 56,000 / 280,000 = 20%
Double declining will be:
= 20 * 2 = 40%
Year 1 Depreciation:
= 40% * 280,000 * 9/12 months
= $84,000
Year 2 Deprecation:
= 40% * Net book value
= 40% * (280,000 - 84,000)
= $78,400
Stevens Company's inventory on March 1 and the costs charged to Work in Process—Department B during March are as follows:
Beginning work in process, 12,000 units, 60% completed $62,400
From Department A, 55,000 units started this period
Direct materials added 115,500
Direct labor incurred 384,916
Factory overhead incurred 138,000
During March, all direct materials were transferred from Department A, the units in process at March 1 were completed, and of the 55,000 units entering the department, all were completed except 6,000 units that were 70% completed. Inventories are costed by the first-in, first-out method.
Required:
Prepare a cost of production report for March.
Solution :
Particulars Direct materials Conversions
Cost per equivalent unit
Total costs for month March in Department B 115500 522915
Total equivalent units 55000 58000
Cost per equivalent unit 2.10 9.0158
So, total conversion cost for March in the Department B
= 384915 + 138000
= $ 522915
Costs charged to production:
Direct Materials Conversion Total cost
Costs costs
Inventory in process, March 1 62400
Cost incurred in March 638415
Total costs accounted by the department 700815
Therefore, the cost incurred in March = 115500 + 384915 + 138000
= $ 638415

Using the midpoint method, if the price of good X is constant at $10 and the price of good Y decreases from $10 to $8, the cross price elasticity of demand is about:_________
Answer:
Quantity demanded is -0.4
Explanation:
Quantity demanded is -0.4 if the prices decline from $8 to $10. The cross price elasticity is the change in quantity demanded for the goods when the price of other goods changes. The price change can be minor and the quantity demanded change can be high.

Perfect Fit Company sells men's shirts and jeans. The average selling price and variable cost for each product follow: Selling price per shirt $22 Selling price per jean $27 Variable cost per shirt $14 Variable cost per jean $19 Fixed costs $3,200 Calculate the breakeven point in units assuming the sales mix is 1:1.
Answer:
Jeans= 200 units
Shirt= 200 units
Explanation:
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin
Weighted average contribution margin= (weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary variable cost)
Weighted average contribution margin= (22*0.5 + 27*0.5) - (14*0.5 + 19*0.5)
Weighted average contribution margin= 8
Break-even point (units)= 3,200/8
Break-even point (units)= 400 units
Jeans= 0.5*400= 200 units
Shirt= 0.5*400= 200 units

Explanation:
So adjusting entries are done at the end of the reporting period, in this case it is the end of October.
For most of these entries we recognize expenses and a corresponding decrease in assets or increase in liabilities.
As for revenue previously unearned, we have to recognize the revenue portion now earned.

Lucky Strike Mine (LLC) purchased a silver deposit for $1,500,000. It estimated it would extract 500,000 ounces of silver from the deposit. Lucky Strike mined the silver and sold it, reporting gross receipts of $1.8 million, $2.5 million, and $2 million for Years 1 through 3, respectively. During Years 1 through 3, Lucky Strike reported net income (loss) from the silver deposit activity in the amount of ($100,000), $400,000, and $100,000, respectively. In Years 1 through 3, Lucky Strike actually extracted 300,000 ounces of silver as follows: Ounces extracted per year Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 50,000 150,000 100,000 What is Lucky Strike's depletion deduction for Year 2 if the applicable percentage depletion for silver is 15 percent
Answer:
$375,000
Explanation:
depletion rate musts equal the lesser between:
net income = $400,000
or
15% of gross revenues = $2,500,000 x 15% = $375,000
in this case, $375,000 is the smallest amount.
The percentage of depletion is used by extraction companies, e.g. oil & gas companies or mining companies.
Your coworker Ethan is trying to find information on the Internet to include in his business report. In four to five sentences, give Ethan advice on some search strategies he can use to find what he's seeking.
Answer: Pick his subject title, do a search concerning it, and make his report from there
Explanation:
These is dependent on what actually he's filling in the report. I would advise Ethan to pick out the subject title of what he's searching for and place on the net. When he does that, he would get various responses. He would have to do the selection himself regarding that which fits into his search, then use it for his report
A local partnership is liquidating and has only two assets (cash of $10,000 and land with a cost of $35,000). All partnership liabilities have been paid. All partners are personally insolvent. The partners have capital balances and share profits and losses as follows. Brown, capital (40%) $ 25,000 Fish, capital (30%) 15,000 Stone, capital (30%) 5,000 If the land is sold for $25,000, how much cash does each partner receive in a final settlement
Answer:
The amount of cash that each partner receives in a final settlement is as follows:
Brown = $14,000
Fish = $10,500
Stone = $10,500
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Partnership assets:
Cash = $10,000
Land (cost) = $35,000
Capital balances and sharing of profits and losses:
Brown, capital (40%) $ 25,000
Fish, capital (30%) 15,000
Stone, capital (30%) 5,000
Cash realized from land = $25,000
Total cash available for distribution = $35,000 ($10,000 + $25,000)
Distribution:
Brown (40%) = $14,000 (40% of $35,000)
Fish (30%) = $10,500 (30% of $35,000)
Stone (30%) = $10,500 (30% of $35,000)
Total $35,000
b) When a partnership is liquidated, the partners share the net assets of the partnership in their profit and loss sharing ratios. If the net assets are negative, they also share the balance in their profit and loss sharing ratios and make the required contributions.
The balanced scorecard: Multiple Choice Fails to reflect environmental and social effects of the firm's operations. Helps focus managers' attention to bottom line profits. Is not comprehensive, since it doesn't include all the critical success factors which contribute to competitive success. Is forward looking, stressing nonfinancial measures that can lead to benefits in the future. Is heavily weighted toward the financial critical success factors.
Answer:
Is forward looking, stressing nonfinancial measures that can lead to benefits in the future.
Explanation:
Financial statements can be defined as a document used for the formal communication or disclosure of financial information and statements to present and potential users such as investors and creditors. These includes balance sheet, statement of retained earnings and income statement.
In Financial accounting, Horizontal analysis can be defined as an analysis and evaluation of a financial statement which illustrates or gives information about changes in the amount of corresponding financial statement items, benchmarks or financial ratio over a specific period of time. It is one of the most important technique that is used to measure how a business is doing financially.
Hence, the balanced scorecard is forward looking, stressing nonfinancial measures that can lead to benefits in the future and as such it is a strategic management planning technique.
Counselors of Mableton purchased equipment on January 1, 2017, for $37,000. Counselors of Mableton expected the equipment to last for five years and have a residual value of $4,500. Suppose counselors of Mableton sold the equipment for $25,200 on December 31, 2018, after using the equipment for two full years. Assume depreciation 2018 has been recorded. Journalize the sale of equipment, assuming straight-line depreciation was used
Answer:
Dr cash $25,200
Dr accumulated depreciation $13,000
Cr equipment $37,000
Cr profit on disposal $1,2000
Explanation:
The yearly depreciation expense on the equipment is computed thus:
depreciation=(cost-residual value)/useful life
cost=$37000
residual value=$4,500
useful life= 5 years
depreciation=($37000-$4500)/5
depreciation=$6,500
accumulated depreciation for 2 years=$6,500*2=$13,000
Cash proceeds from disposal=$25,200
Upon disposal, we would debit cash with $25,200 as well as accumulated depreciation with $13,000 while the equipment account is credited with the original cost of $37,000
Total debits=$25,200+$13,000=$38,200
total credit=$37,000
profit on disposal=$38,200-$37000=$1,200
Which of the following is true about specification ?
a. A specification is defined as the value separating acceptable from unacceptable performance.
b. Specifications should not be set arbitrarily. If you set a specification to loosely, the customer will be dissatisfied or upset with the performance of what you provided, even though it meets the specification.
c. The specification is set to tightly; you will spend more resources than you should to perform within the overly narrow goals.
Answer:
b. Specifications should not be set arbitrarily. If you set a specification to loosely, the customer will be dissatisfied or upset with the performance of what you provided, even though it meets the specification.
Explanation:
Specification is defined as a set of requirements that needs to be met when producing a product. They give a value that seperate this product from others in performance.
Specification should be narrowly defined as this will help effectively meet the customer needs.
When specifications are too loosely defined the product might not meet customer needs.
For example if a developer requires a laptop with high processing power and the company decides to provide a more generic and lower processing power, the target customer will not be satisfied

You are analyzing a large stable company. For the year ending 12/31/2015 the company reported earnings of $58,900 and book value at the end of 2015 was $371,700. You expect earnings to grow at 5% a year in perpetuity, and the dividend payout ratio of 70% to continue. The company borrows at 8%, and has a cost of equity of 12%. The company has 25,000 shares outstanding. What is your estimate of price per share using the dividend discount model at 12/31/2015
Answer:
$24.74
Explanation:
Total earnings for the year ending 12/31/2015= $58,900
dividend payout ratio=70%
current year total dividends= $58,900*70%
current year total dividends=$41,230.00
current dividend per share=current year total dividends/shares outstanding
current dividend per share=$41,230.00/25,000
current dividend per share=$1.6492
expected dividend=current dividend per share*(1+growth rate)
growth rate of dividends forever=5%
expected dividend=$1.6492*(1+5%)
expected dividend=$1.73166
share price=expected dividend/(cost of equity-growth rate)
cost of equity=12%
share price=$1.73166/(12%-5%)
share price=$24.74

The board of directors of a corporation:________.
a) Are elected by the corporate registrar.
b) Are responsible for day-to-day operations of the business.
c) Do not have the power to bind the corporation to contracts, due to lack of mutual agency.
d) May not also be executive officers of the corporation, due to the separate entity principle.
e) Are responsible for and have final authority for managing corporate activities.
Answer:
e) Are responsible for and have final authority for managing corporate activities.
Explanation:
A corporation can be defined as a corporate organization that has facilities and owns or controls assets used for the production of goods and services in at least one country other than its headquarter (home office) located in its home country.
This ultimately implies that, a corporation is a corporate organization that owns or controls its business in two or more countries.
Some examples of multinational firms are Ap-ple, Volkswagen, Go-ogle, Shoprite, Nestlé, Accenture, Shell BP, Chevron etc.
An owner of a corporation is known as a stockholder and he or she can decide to sell the corporation through stocks or shares as a publicly traded firm.
Basically, the board of directors who are representing the stockholders of a corporation are responsible for and have final authority for managing corporate activities because they are typically considered to be a governing body saddled with oversight functions and responsibilities.

2. Efficiency and effectiveness (Connect, Perform) Read the scenario and then complete the sentence with the correct term. Management in Life Your parents are hosting the huge annual family reunion this year, and they have determined that quite a bit of work needs to be done before all the relatives show up. They ask if you will repair the leaking faucets and replace the rec room carpet. They ask your sister to rid the lawn of weeds and reseed the bare patches, and they ask your brother to rent tents, a huge barbeque grill, and other equipment. They want the family to feel comfortable and have fun. To achieve greater , your dad decides to mount speakers around the backyard so people can listen to music streaming from his Rhapsody account. This will be less expensive than hiring a live band. In your first day as a driver for Road-O-Rama Freight, you realize that something just isn’t right. Trucks go out half full, and drivers often get the wrong addresses so freight doesn’t arrive at its destination. When telling a friend about your new job, how would you describe this company’s operations? Both effective and efficient Effective but not efficient Efficient but not effective Neither effective nor efficient
Answer:
When telling a friend about your new job, how would you describe this company’s operations?
Neither effective nor efficient
Explanation:
The company's operations will be considered effective if they achieve objectives. But they do not produce the desired results because drivers often get the wrong addresses, making freights not to arrive at their destinations. Similarly, the company's operations cannot be described as efficient because trucks go out half full with wrong addresses. This is a waste of time, money, and efforts, and the performance competence of the company is questionable. Efficient operations accomplish results with the least amount of resources. Effective operations achieve desired results successfully.
Lakeland Chemical manufactures a product called Zing. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process, and conversion activity occurs uniformly throughout production. The beginning work-in-process inventory is 60% complete with respect to conversion; the ending work-in-process inventory is 20% complete.
The following data pertain to May:
Units Work in process, May 1 15,000
Units started during May 60,000
Units completed and transferred out 68,000
Work in process, May 31 7,000 Total
Direct Materials Conversion Costs
Costs: Work in process, May 1 $ 41,250 $ 16,500 $ 24,750 Costs incurred during May 234,630 72,000 162,630 Totals $ 275,880 $ 88,500 $ 187,380 Using the weighted-average method of process costing, the cost per unit of conversion activity is:________.
a. $2.50.
b. $2.53.
c. $2.70.
d. $2.76.
Answer:
$2.38
Explanation:
Note : I have uploaded the full question below as an image
Step 1
Calculate the Equivalent units of production with respect to conversion costs
Units Completed and Transferred (81,000 x 100%) = 81,000
Plus Units in Ending Work In Process (9,000 x 20%) = 1,800
Total Equivalent Units = 82,800
Step 2
Calculate the Total Conversion Costs during the period
Total Conversion Costs = $197,380 (given)
Step 3
Calculate Cost per Equivalent Unit
Cost per Equivalent Unit = Total Cost ÷ Equivalent Units
= $197,380 ÷ 82,800
= $2.38

EVO, Inc. is evaluating a project that will have a life of four years. The operating cash flow each year is expected to be $51,500. There is a need to invest in net working capital at the start of the project in the amount of $4,250. EVO, Inc. will recover this investment in net working capital at the end of the project. EVO also needed to spend $22,400 on equipment in order to get the project started. The book value for this equipment when the project is finished, is estimated to be $4,660. This equipment will be sold at the end of the project for an estimated sales price of $5,670. EVO has a tax rate relevant to this analysis of 34 percent. Calculate the amount of cash flow in year 4 of this project
Answer:
$61,763.40
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of cash flow in year 4 is shown below:
Terminal Cash flow in year 4 is
= operating cash flow + net working capital invested + sale price of equipment - tax on profit from sale
= operating cash flow + net working capital invested + sale price of equipment - tax rate × (Sale price - book value)
= $51,500 + $4,250 + $5,670 - 34% × ($5,670 - $4,660)
= $61,763.40
You purchased a 5-year, 6% annual-coupon bond with $1,000 par value. The yield to maturity at the time of purchase was 4%. You sold the bond after one year, right after receiving the first coupon payment. The bond's yield to maturity was 3.4% when you sold it. What is your holding period return on the bond
Answer:
6.12%
Explanation:
the market value of the bond when you purchased it was:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.04⁵ = $821.93
PV of coupon payments = $60 x 4.4518 (PV annuity factor, 4%, 5 periods) = $267.11
initial investment = $1,089.04
after 1 year, you receive $60 +
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.034⁴ = $874.82
PV of coupon payments = $60 x 3.6818 (PV annuity factor, 3.4%, 4 periods) = $220.91
market price = $1,095.73
total holding return = ($1,095.73 + $60 - $1,089.04) / $1,089.04 = 6.12%
