Explanation:

National Orthopedics Co. issued 9% bonds, dated January 1, with a face amount of $500,000 on January 1, 2021. The bonds mature on December 31, 2024 (4 years). For bonds of similar risk and maturity the market yield was 10%. Interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Required: 1. Determine the price of the bonds at January 1, 2021. 2. Prepare the journal entry to record their issuance by National on January

Answers

Answer:

The price of the bonds $483,841.97    

Journal entry:

Dr cash $483,841.97    

Dr discount on bonds payable $16,158.03    

Cr bonds payable $500,000.00

Explanation:

Using a financial calculator, we determine the bond price by using the following inputs:

N=8(number of semiannual coupons in 4 years=4*2=8)

PMT=22500 (semiannual coupon=face value*coupon rate*6/12= $500,000*9%*6/12=$22,500)

I/Y=5(semiannual yield=10%%*6/12=5%)

FV=500000( the face value is $600,000)

CPT PV=$483,841.97    

Bond discount=face value-bond price

Bond discount=$500,000-$483,841.97    

Bond discount=$16,158.03    

The double entries are to debit cash and discount on bonds payable with $483,841.97 and $16,158.03  respectively while bonds payable is credited with the face value of $500,000

Suppose you have two friends who have the same underlying ability, took the same courses in college, and have the same GPA. One of them decides to go to a business school for an MBA, while the other one chooses to pursue a PhD in English literature. Given that the expected earnings of an MBA are much higher than the expected earnings of an English PhD, is one of your friends being irrational?

Answers

Answer:

Rational is based on the logical preference. Being irrational does not means that the choice is made based on monetary preference. It is more logical than monetary.

Explanation:

The two friends took same courses in college but after the completion of college degree one decides to go for MBA and other pursues PhD in English. The expected earnings of MBA are higher than PhD but one of friend who chooses the PhD has not considered the logical decision making based on money. He might have chose the PhD because he is more interested in becoming a professor rather than a business professional.

Marketing and common sense

Answers

1. Elevator pitch. You should be marketing all the time — wherever you are. Therefore, you need a compelling elevator pitch. Research shows the average attention span of an adult is about 6 to 8 seconds. That’s all the time you have to grab someone’s attention. If you successfully engage them, then you only have a little over a minute to really sell them on your product or service. So you need to invest the time to craft a killer elevator pitch. The return on your investment will pay huge dividends in terms of creating business opportunities.

2. Leverage Community. You don’t have to think big when it comes to your marketing efforts. Think locally. What’s going on in your community? Sponsor a Little League team or a 5k charity walk/run. Print bookmarks and leave them at the local library. If you understand who your ideal customer is, think about how and where they spend their time. Then search for opportunities to be there with your marketing message.

3. Collaborative Marketing. Put together a group of synergistic, non-competitive businesses in your area and agree to cross-promote. You can use coupons, fliers, reciprocal website links or even offer bundled promotions. By collaborating with each other you can expand your customer base because you’ll be reaching new people.

4. Networking. I’m a huge fan of networking. I don’t think there is any better way to build a business than to get out there, shake some hands, and get known. Networking requires a time commitment and it doesn’t provide instant gratification, but a strong network is one of the greatest assets any business person can have.

5. Give a Speech. A lot of people hate public speaking. However, there are lots of groups you are looking for qualified, subject-matter experts who can present to their groups. So take a deep breath and volunteer. You don’t have to be a pro as long as the information you share is helpful to the audience. And the upside — the more you do it the easier it gets. Plus it positions you as a credible authority in your field

A review of Parson Corporation's accounting records found that at a volume of 90,000 units, the variable and fixed cost per unit amounted to $8 and $4, respectively. On the basis of this information, what amount of total cost would Parson anticipate at a volume of 85,000 units

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $1,040,000

Explanation:

For 90,000 units:

Unitary variable cost= $8

Unitary fixed cost= $4

First, we need to calculate the total fixed cost:

Total fixed cost= 4*90,000= $360,000

Now, we can determine the total cost for 85,000 units:

Total cost= 85,000*8 + 360,000

Total cost= $1,040,000

Mocha Company manufactures a single product by a continuous process, involving three production departments.

B. Work in Process--Department 2 150,000
Materials 150,000
C. Materials 55,000
Work in Process--Department 2 55,000

D. Work in Process--Department 2 100,000
Materials 100,000

Answers

Answer:

A. Work in Process--Department 2 55,000

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Work in Process - Department 2 Dr $55,000

         To Materials $55,000

(Being the recording of the flow of cost for the direct material is done)

Here the work in process would be debited as it increased the asset and credited the material as it decreased the asset

Sheffield Corp. applies overhead to production at a predetermined rate of 90% based on direct labor cost. Job No. 250, the only job still in process at the end of August, has been charged with manufacturing overhead of $11700. What was the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000

Answers

Answer:

$20,300

Explanation:

Calculation for What was the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000

Direct materials charged to Job 250=$45,000 - ($11,700 / .90) - $11,700

Direct materials charged to Job 250=$45,000 - $13,000- $11,700

Direct materials charged to Job 250= $20,300

Therefore the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000 will be $20,300

g A department store chain has 15,100 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $75 and a rate of return of 14%. The company also has 400 bonds outstanding, with a par value of $1,500 per bond. The pretax cost of debt is 6.5% and the bonds sell for 98.2% of par. What is the firm's WACC if the tax rate is 29%

Answers

Answer:

10.79%

Explanation:

WACC = Pretax cost of debt*(1 - tax rate)*[(Number of bonds*Par value *selling price) / (Number of bonds*Par value*Selling price*Number of shares *Price per share)] + Rate of return*[(Number of shares*Price per share) / (Number of bonds*Par value*Selling price + Number of shares*Price per share)]

WACC = 0.065 *(1 - 0.29) * [(400*$1,500*98.2%) / (400*$1,500*98.2% + 15,100*$75)] + 0.14 x [(15,100*$75) / (400*$1,500*98.2% + 15,100*$ 75)]

WACC = 4.615%*[$ 589,200 / ($589,200 + $1,132,500)] + 0.14*[$1,132,500 / ($589,200 + $1,132,500)]

WACC= 4.615%*$589,200 / $1,721,700 + 0.14*$ 1,132,500/$ 1,721,700

WACC = 4.615%*0.342219899 + 14%*0.657780101

WACC =  1.579344834% + 9.208921415%

WACC = 10.79%

Alicia owns a small pottery factory. She can make 1000 pots per year and sell them for $100 each. It costs Alicia $20,000 for the raw materials to produce the 1000 pots. She has invested $100,000 in her factory and equipment: $50,000 from her savings and $50,000 borrowed at 10%. Alicia can work at a competing pottery factory for $40,000/year. What is the accounting profit at Alicia's factory?

Answers

Answer:

$-20,000

Explanation:

Accounting profit = total revenue - total explicit cost

Total revenue = price x quantity produced

$100 x 1000 = $100,000

Total explicit cost = fixed cost + variable cost

Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with output. e,g amount invested in the factory

Variable costs are costs that vary with production. e.g. cost of raw materials

$100,000 + $20,000 = $120,000

Accounting profit = $100,000 - $120,000 = $-20,000
