Answer:
1.0139 times
Explanation:
Given the above information, Campbell's asset turnover is computed as
= Net sales/Average total assets
Net sales = $7,890 million
Average total assets = ($7,837 million + $7,726 million ) / 2 = $7,781.5 million
Assets turnover = $7,890 million / $7,781.5 million
Assets turnover = 1.0139 times
AudioCables, Inc., is currently manufacturing an adapter that has a variable cost of $0.60 per unit and a selling price of $1.20 per unit. Fixed costs are $14,000. Current sales volume is 30,000 units. The firm can substantially improve the product quality by adding a new piece of equipment at an additional fixed cost of $6,000. Variable costs would increase to $0.75, but sales volume should jump to 50,000 units due to a higher-quality product. a. What is the current profit and proposed profit of the sales of AudioCables
Answer:
The answer is "$4,000 and $2,500"
Explanation:
Formula:
[tex]\text{Profit = Sales - Total cost}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{\text{Selling price}}{unit} \times \text{volume of Sale} - ( \text{Fixed cost} + \frac{\text{Variable cost}}{unit} \times \text{volume of Sale})[/tex]
[tex]= 1.20 \times 30000 - ( 14,000 + 0.6 \times 30,000)\\\\= 36,000 -( 14,000 + 18,000)\\\\= 36,000 - 14,000 - 18,000 \\\\= 36,000 - 32,000 \\\\= \$ 4,000[/tex]
The scenario was revised by installing new audio connection equipment:
The volume of revised sales[tex]= 50,000[/tex]
Fixed cost updated [tex]= \$ 41,000 + \$ 6,000 = \$ 20,000[/tex]
Cost of the updated component [tex]= \frac{\$ 0.75}{unit}[/tex]
Unchanged purchase price/unit [tex]= \frac{\$ 1.2}{unit}[/tex]
[tex]= 1.2 \times 50,000 -(20,000 + 0.75 \times 50,000)\\\\= 60,000 -(20,000 + 37,500)\\\\= 60,000 -(57,500)\\\\= 60,000 -57,500 \\\\ =2,500[/tex]
Audio cable sales are actually profiting = 4,000
Proposal for audio cable sales profit = 2,500
General Manufacturing expects to have 40,000 pounds of raw materials inventory on hand on June 30, the end of the current year. The company has budgeted the following production for the first four months of the coming year:
Production (units)
July 100,000
August 120,000
September 150,000
October 110,000
General Manufacturing desires each month's ending raw materials inventory to be 20% of the following month's production needs. A finished unit requires two pounds of raw materials. General Manufacturing's budgeted purchases of materials for September is:
a. 60,000 lbs.
b. 248,000 lbs.
c. 228,000 lbs.
d. 284,000 lbs.
e. 300,000 lbs.
Answer:
d. 284,000 lbs.
Explanation:
The computation of the budgeted purchase of material for the september month is as follows
= Raw material needed for production + closing stock - opening stock
= (150,000 × 2) + (110,000 × 2 × 20%) - 60,000
= 300,000 + 44,000 - 60,000
= 284,000 lbs
Hence, the budgeted purchase of material for the september month is 284,000 lbs

Prepare Krum Co.'s journal entries to record the following transactions involving its short-term investments in available-for-sale debt securities, all of which occurred during the current year. a. On August 1, paid $70,000 cash to purchase Houtte's 11%, six-month debt securities ($70,000 principal), dated August 1. b. On October 30, received a check from Houtte for 90 days' interest on the debt securities in transaction a
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entries are shown below:
On Aug 1
Short-term investments $70,000
To Cash $70,000
(Being the short term investment is recorded)
Here short term investment is debited as it increased the asset and credited the cash as it decreased the asset
On Oct 30
Cash ($70,000 × 11% × 90 days ÷ 360 days) 1,925
To Interest revenue $1,925
(Being the interest revenue is recorded)
here cash is debited as it increased the asset and credited the interest revenue as it also increased the revenue
Here we assume 360 days in a year
On January 1, 2013, Springs Industries issued $18,000,000 of 10% ten-year bonds at 102. The bonds are callable at the option of Springs at 104. Springs pays interest annually and has recorded amortization of the bond premium on the straight-line method (which was not materially different from the effective-interest method). On December 31, 2019, Springs called in $6,000,000 of the bonds. Ignoring income taxes, Springs should report a gain or loss of:_________
Answer:
Springs should report a loss of $204,000
Explanation:
To be redeemed Premium on bonds payable = 6,000,000 * 2% = $120,000
The amortization of bond premium (annual) = 120,000/10 = $12,000
Bonds premium amortized in 7 years (From 2013 to 2019) = 12,000 * 7 = $84,000
Unamortized bond premium = 120,000 - 84,000 = $36,000
Carrying value of bonds = Face value of the bonds + un-amortized bond premium at the redemption date = 6,000,000 + 36,000 = $6,036,000
Redemption price of bonds = 6,000,000 * 104% = $6,240,000
Loss on bonds redemption = Redemption price - Carrying value of bonds = 6,240,000 - 6,036,000 = $204,000. So, Springs should report a loss of $204,000.
The following monthly data pertains to the Amnesty Company: Sales commissions 8,000 Delivery truck depreciation $2,500 Direct labor 45,000 Indirect labor 15,000 Direct materials 30,000 Indirect materials 4,000 Factory electricity and gas 8,000 Factory supervisor salary 12,000 Depreciation of factory building 7,000 Property taxes on corporate headquarters building 16,000 Determine the manufacturing overhead for the month.

Answer:
The net cash provided by financing activities -$157,600.
Explanation:
Net cash provided by financing activities refers to the difference between the total cash inflows and total cash outflows from the financing activities section of the cash flow staement.
The net cash provided by financing activities can be calculated by preparing a partial cash flow statement as follows:
Concord Corporation
Net Cash Flow Statement (Partial)
As at December 31, 2022
Details Amount
Par value common stock issued for cash 190,000
Dividend declared and paid in cash (15,200)
6-year note payable repaid (334,400)
Net cash provided by financing activities (157,600)
Therefore, the net cash provided by financing activities -$157,600.
Alternatively, the net cash provided by financing activities can be calculated as follows:
Net cash provided by financing activities = Par value common stock issued for cash - Dividend declared and paid in cash - 6-year note payable repaid = $190,000 - $15,200 - $334,400 = -$157,600
As operations manager, you are concerned about being able to meet sales requirements in the coming months. You have just been given the following production report:

Total machine hours 1,240 1,128 1,925 1,236
Average productivity 1.77 1.50 1.40 2.34
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Production report:
JAN FEB MAR APR
Units produced 2,195 1,695 2,695 2,895
Hours per machine 310 188 385 309
Number of machines 4 6 5 4
Total machine hours 1,240 1,128 1,925 1,236
b) Productivity, according to Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), is the ratio between the output volume and the volume of inputs. This means that productivity measures compute how efficiently production inputs are used to produce output. It can be measured with respect to labor, capital, and other production inputs or in aggregate with respect to all production inputs.

If required, round your final answers to the nearest dollar. Required: Compute the depreciation for 2016 and 2017 under each of the following methods:
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete and lacks necessary data and requirements to solve. However, I have found a similar question on the internet and will be using its data to solve for this question. Furthermore, it has not given the name of methods, so I will be solving for two methods, which are:
1. Straight Line Method
2. Sum of the years depreciation Method.
Solution:
Data Missing:
Machine Price = $198,000
Service Life = 5 years or 10,000 hours
Production = 180,000 units
Residual Value = $18000
Now, the data is complete and can be solved for the above mentioned methods of depreciation.
1. Straight Line Method:
As we know,
Asset Cost = $198,000
Residual Value = $18000
Life in Years = 5
Depreciation:
Formula for Straight Line Depreciation is:
(Asset Cost - Residual Value)/life in years
Plugging in the values:
Depreciation = ($198,000 - $18000)/5
Depreciation = $180,000/5
Depreciation = 36000
It will be same for both the years 2016 and 2017 as well.
2. Sum of the years Depreciation Method:
For this, we need to have the depreciable asset value:
Depreciable Asset Value = (Asset Value - Residual Value)
Depreciable Asset Value = ($198,000 - $18000)
Depreciable Asset Value = $180,000
Sum of the years for 2016
Number of years for 2016 = 5
Sum = 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 15
Number of years for 2017 = 4
So, the formula for depreciation is:
(Number of years for 2016/Sum of Years) x depreciable Asset Value
(5/15) x 180,000 = 60,000
Similarly, for 2017
(Number of years for 2017/Sum of Years) x depreciable Asset Value
(4/15) x 180,000 = 48,000
Hence,
1. Straight Line Method:
Depreciation for 2016 = 36000
Depreciation for 2017 = 36000
2. Sum of the years Depreciation Method:
Depreciation for 2016 = 60,000
Depreciation for 2017 = 48,000
A T-bill quote sheet has 90-day T-bill quotes with a 5.77 ask and a 5.71 bid. If the bill has a $10,000 face value, an investor could sell this bill for _____.
a. $9,857.25
b. $9,855.75
c. $9,859.21
d. $10,000
Answer:
a. $9,857.25
Explanation:
Price = Face value * (1 - Bid*Days/360)
Price = $10,000 * (1 - 5.71%*90/360)
Price = $10,000 * (1 - 5.71%*0.25)
Price = $10,000 * (1 - 0.014275)
Price = $10,000 * 0.985725
Price = $9,857.25

The next 5 questions use the same below information. Company C had the following investment. Help them determine the financial statement implications of the investment. Tax rate 21% Estimated tax payment 21,000 Investment cost and ending fair values for 20X1 and 20X2: 20X1 20X2 Cost 100,000 100,000 Fair value 110,000 134,000 Total gain 10,000 34,000 20X1 income statement information: Sales 1,670,200 Expenses 1,536,600 What is net income for 20X1 assuming the investment is short-term?
Answer:
$143,600
Explanation:
Calculation for What is net income for 20X1 assuming the investment is short-term
Using this formula
Net income for 20X1 = Sales – Expenses + Unrealized gain on short-term investments
Let plug in the formula
Net income for 20X1 = $1,670,200 - $1,536,600 + $10,000
Net income for 20X1= $143,600
Therefore the net income for 20X1 assuming the investment is short-term will be $143,600
Claremore Industries uses a weighted-average process-costing system. All materials are added at the beginning of the process; conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout production. The company finished 40,000 units during the period and had 15,000 units in progress at year-end, the latter at the 40% stage of completion. Total material costs amounted to $220,000; conversion costs were $414,000. The cost of the ending work in process is:
Answer: $78000
Explanation:
First, we have to calculate the total.costnoer equivalent unit which will be the addition of the material cost per unit and the conversion cost per unit. This will be:
Material cost per unit = $220,000 / (40,000+15,000)
= $220,000 / 55000
= $4
Conversion cost per unit= $414,000 / (40,000 + (15,000*40%)
= $414000 / 46000
= $9
Therefore, total cost per equivalent unit will be: $4 + $9 = $13
Then, the equivlant unit of the ending work in process would be calculated as:
= 15,000 × 40%
= 15000 × 40/100
= 15000 × 0.4
= 6,000
The cost of the ending work in process will then be:
= 6,000 × $13
= $78,000

On January 2, 2014, a calendar-year corporation sold 8% bonds with a face value of $1,500,000. These bonds mature in five years, and interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds were sold for $1,384,000 to yield 10%. Using the effective-interest method of computing interest, how much should be charged to interest expense in 2014
Answer:
$69,660
Explanation:
Calculation for how much should be charged to interest expense in 2014 Using the effective-interest method of computing interest
2014 Interest expense =($1,384,000 × .05) =
2014 Interest expense=[$1,384,000 + ($1,384,000 × .05 - $60,000)] × .05
2014 Interest expense=[$1,384,000 + ( $69,200- $60,000)] × .05
2014 Interest expense=[$1,384,000 +$9,200] × .05
2014 Interest expense=$1,393,200×0.05
2014 Interest expense=$69,660
Therefore Using the effective-interest method of computing interest, how much should be charged to interest expense in 2014 is $138,860
