Lisa Hajak, CFA, specialized in research on real estate companies at Cornerstone Country Bank for the past twenty years. Hajak recently started her own investment research firm, Hajak Investment Advisory. One of her former clients at Cornerstone asks Hajak to update a research report she wrote on a real estate company when she was at Cornerstone. Hajak updates the report, which she had copied to her personal computer without the bank’s knowledge, and replaces references to the bank with her new firm, Hajak Investment Advisory. Hajak also incorporates the conclusions of a real estate study conducted by the Realtors Association that appeared in the Wall Street Journal. She references the Journal as her source in her report. She provides the revised report free of charge along with a cover letter for the bank’s client to become a client of her firm. Concerning the reissued research report, Hajak least likely violated the CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct because she: solicited the bank’s client. did not obtain consent to use the bank report. did not cite the actual source of the real estate study.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

solicited the bank’s client.

Explanation:

In order for Lisa to have committed solicitation and violated Standard VI(a), she must have actively searched for the bank's former client. The text states that a former client of the bank hired her, but it gives no indication that Lisa went after him. Also, Lisa is no longer working for the bank, if any of the bank's clients looks for her, she isn't doing anything wrong.

Answers

Answer:

1. a. Allocated prices

First add the market values = 444,150 + 255,150 + 56,700 + 189,000 = $945,0

00

Building allocated price                                     Land allocated price

= 444,150/ 945,000 * 830,000                        = 255,150/945,000 * 830,000

= $‭390,100‬                                                           = $224,100

Land improvement allocated price                  Four vehicles allocate price

= 56,700/945,000 * 830,000                          = 189,000/945,000 * 830,000

= $49,800                                                        = $166,000

2. Depreciation on building using straight-line method.

= (390,100 - 28,000) / 15

= $‭24,140‬

3. Depreciation on land improvements using double declining method.

First do straight line:

= 49,800/ 5 years

= $9,960

Straight line rate of depreciation = 9,960/49,800 = 20%

Double declining will be twice that rate = 40%

Depreciation = 40% * 49,800

= $‭19,920‬

2001 nominal GDP = $_________
2000 real GDP = $_________
2001 real GDP = $_________

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Nominal GDP = Sum of (Present Year Price × Present Year Quantity)

And,  

Real GDP = Sum of (Base Year Price × Present Year Quantity)

Now

(a) Nominal GDP, 2000 is

= $[(7 × 600) + (70 × 20) + (300 × 5)]

= $4,200 + $1,400 + $1,500

= $7,100

(b) Nominal GDP, 2001 is

= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]

= ($1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500)

= $4,500

(c) Real GDP, 2000 is

= $[(3 × 600) + (20 × 20) + (300 × 5)]

= $1,800 + $400 + 1,500

= $3,700

(d) Real GDP, 2001 is

= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]

= $1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500

= $4,500

At Medallion Industries, variable cost per unit is budgeted to be $8.00 and fixed cost per unit is budgeted to be $5.00 in a period when 4,000 units are produced. What is the expected total cost of the units produced at Medallion, if instead, production is actually 5,100 units

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $60,800

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

For 4,000 units:

Unitary variable cost= $8

Unitary fixed cost= $5

First, we need to calculate the total fixed cost:

Total fixed cost= 5*4,000= $20,000

Now, we can determine the total cost for 5,100 units:

Total cost= 5,100*8 + 20,000

Total cost= $60,800

Kostelnik Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on total fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $555,000, variable manufacturing overhead of $2.10 per machine-hour, and 74,000 machine-hours. The company has provided the following data concerning Job A496 which was recently completed:
Number of units in the job 20
Total machine hours 80
Direct materials $500
Direct labor cost $2,160
The amount of overhead applied to job A496 is closes to____.
A) $1,256.
B) $632.
C) $944.
D) $312.

Answers

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $768

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (555,000/74,000) + 2.1

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $9.6 per machine hour

Now, we can allocate overhead to Job A496:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 9.6*80

Allocated MOH= $768

Answers

Answer:

$13.55

Explanation:

The contribution margin per unit is computed as;

= Selling price - (Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Sales commission + Variable administrative expense)

= $28.10 - ($7.50 + $3.85 + $1.55 + $1.05 + $0.60)

= $28.10 - $14.55

b. Compute the total overhead cost applied to Job 205.
c. What would be the total manufacturing cost recorded for Job 205?
d. If the job contained 22 units, what would be the unit product cost?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each department:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Molding:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (174,000/87,000) + 3.2

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $5.2 per machine hour

Painting:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 445,890/50,100 + 5.2

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.1

Now, we can allocate overhead to Job 205:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 5.2*350 + 14.1*132

Allocated MOH= $3,681.2

Finally, the unitary cost of Job 205:

Total cost= (938 + 1,220) + (720 + 1,020) + 3,681.2

Total cost= $7,579

Unitary cost= 7,579/22

Unitary cost= $344.51

Answers

Answer:

50,500 Units

Explanation:

The computation of the number of units produced is shown below:

Overhead rate is

= $200,000 ÷ 50,000 units

= $4 per unit

The Actual overhead is $222,000

So,

Under applied overhead is $20,000

Now

Applied overhead is

= $222,000 - $20,000

= $202,000

And, finally

Actual unit produced is

= $202000 ÷ 4

= 50,500 Units

Economists develop models to A. capture every detail of the real world. B. justify the assumptions they make about%E2%80%8B people's behavior. C. make their arguments more realistic. D. help us understand economic phenomena in the real world.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

An economic model is a caricature of reality. It allows users to observe, understand and predict economic phenomena. Economic models don't capture every detail of the real world

Examples of economic models include :

the production possibility frontierthe Keynesian IS/LM modelthe Mundell-Fleming model.

The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.  

The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.  

During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000. As of year end, Beta had resold only 60 percent of these intra-entity purchases. Alpha sells inventory to Beta at the same markup it uses for all of its customers. What is the total for consolidated cost of goods sold

Answers

Answer:

a. $173,000

Explanation:

Missing word "Alpha Company owns 80 percent of the voting stock of Beta Company. Alpha and Beta reported the following account information from their year-end separate financial records: Alpha Beta Inventory $95,000 $88,000 Sales Revenue 800,000 300,000 Cost of Goods Sold 600,000 180,000 During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000."

Percentage of profits Alpha charge to other customers = ($800,000 - $600,000) / $800,000 = 25% of sales

Stock held at year end by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $100,000 * 40% =$40,000

Profit involved in stock held by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $40,000 * 25% = $10,000

So, Value of stock of Beta = $88,000 - $10,000 = $78,000

Hence, Total for consolidated inventory = $95,000 + $78,000 = $173,000

You have decided to invest $15,000 in a money market fund that pays you interest at the annual rate of 6% and compounds interests monthly. Your plan is to take out your money in a year and pay taxes on the interest earned. If the corresponding tax rate is 20%, how much money in total will you expect to receive in a year after paying taxes.

Answers

Answer:

$15,869.66

Explanation:

The formula for determining the future value of the amount invested is :

FV = PV x (1 + r / m)^mn

FV = Future value  

PV = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

m = number of compounding

$15,000 x (1+ 0.06/12)^12 = $15,925.17

Interest earned = future value - present value

$15,925.17 - $15,000 = $925.17

Tax paid on interest earned = 0.06 x  $925.17 = $55.51

Interest after taxes = $925.17 - $55.51 = $869.66

Total amount expected = $15,000 + $869.66 = $15,869.66

Consider Pacific Energy Company and U.S. Bluechips, Inc., both of which reported earnings of $967,000. Without new projects, both firms will continue to generate earnings of $967,000 in perpetuity. Assume that all earnings are paid as dividends and that both firms require a return of 13%.
A. What is the current PE ratio for each company?
B. Pacific Energy Company has a new project that will generate additional earnings of $117,000 each year in perpetuity. Calculate the new PE ratio of the company.
C. Atlantic Energy has a new project that will increase earnings by $217,000 in perpetuity. Calculate the new PE ratio of the firm.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. Current PE ratio is

For Pacific energy company

= Price ÷ Earnings

= ($967,000 ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)

= 7.69 times

For U.S Bluechips

= Price ÷ Earnings

= ($967,000 ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)

= 7.69 times

b. The new PE ratio is

= Price ÷ Earnings

= (($967,000 + $117,000) ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)

= 8.62 times

c. The new PE ratio is

= Price ÷ Earnings

= (($967,000 + $217,000) ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)

= 9.42 times

From July 1 to December 1, 20X1, Bradley Corporation produced 14,500 units. These units had a material cost of $2, labor of $4, and overhead of $2 per unit. Bradley uses LIFO inventory accounting. a. Assuming that Bradley Corporation sold 18,000 units during the last six months of the year at $13 each, what is its gross profit

Answers

Answer:

Gross profit                       $83,000

Explanation:

The computation of the gross profit is as follows:

Sales (18,000 units × $13)  $234,000

Less: Material

(14,500 × $2)                  -$29,000

(18,000 - 14,500) × $4    -$14,000

Less; labor

(14,500 × $4)                  -$58,000

(18,000 - 14,500) × $4    -$14,000

Less: Overhead

(14,500 × $2)                   -$29,000

(18,000 - 14,500) × $2     -$7,000

Gross profit                       $83,000

Universal Manufacturing uses a weighted-average process-costing system. All materials are introduced at the start of manufacturing, and conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the process. The company's beginning and ending work-in-process inventories totaled 10,000 units and 15,000 units, respectively, with the latter units being 2/3 complete at the end of the period. Universal started 30,000 units into production and completed 25,000 units. Manufacturing costs follow.
Beginning work in process: Materials, $60,000; conversion cost, $150,000
Current costs: Materials, $180,000; conversion cost, $480,000
Universal's equivalent-unit cost for conversion cost is:____.
a. $4.50.
b. $6.00.
c. $8.00.
d. $9.60.
e. some other amount.

Answers

Answer: b. $6.00

Explanation:

Equivalent Cost Per Unit = Total Material Cost/Materials Equivalent Units

Materials Equivalent Units

= Opening inventory + Units completed + Ending inventory

= 10,000 + 25,000 + 5,000

= 40,000 units

Equivalent cost per unit = (Beginning WIP Materials + Current costs) / Materials EUP

= (60,000 + 180,000) / 40,000

= $6.00

Note: Ending materials inventory = Units started - Units completed

Profit margin = 3.10 % and gross profit rate = 51.85 %

Part c

Change in profit margin : The Profit Margin has fallen from 5% to 3.10 % in 2017 by 2.10% . The cause of this decline is a concern and must be investigated. The Profit margin rate measure the success with respect of earnings on sales thus more investigations must be done on what caused the earnings to decline in 2017.

Part 1

Cost of Goods Sold has increased by $28,000 ($1,015,000 -$987,000). Income tax rate has not changed.

a. Impact of the change on multi-step income statement

The items of Gross Profit and Income from Operations will decline by $28,000.

b. Impact of the change on profitability ratios

The Profit ratios will decline. Profit margin will be 1.73 %. Gross Profit margin will be 50.49 %

Explanation:

Multiple Step Income Statement shows separately the Operating Income and the Net Income. Operating Income being Income derived from Primary Activities of the Company whilst the Net Income includes the Secondary Activities of the Company such as Income taxes or Sale of assets.

Other Workings :

Profit margin = Net Income / Net Sales x 100

                     =  $63,500 / $2,050,000 x 100

                     =  3.10 %

Gross Profit rate = Gross Profit / Net Sales x 100

                           = $1,063,000 / $2,050,000 x 100

                           =51.85 %

The Total Revenue and Net Earnings are shown individually on the Several Stage Financial Statements. Operating income comes from the company's main activities, whereas net earnings come from the industry's support functions, such as taxable income and divestments.

Profit margin = 3.10 % and gross profit rate = 51.85 %

Part. C.

Profitability has dropped by 2.10 percent from 5 percent to 3.10 percent in the year 2017. The basis for this drop is a point of anxiety that needs to be questioned.

Because the gross margin rate evaluates achievement in terms of income on selling, more analysis into what prompted the profitability to drop in 2017 is required.  

Part 1

Cost of Goods Sold has boost up by $28,000 ($1,015,000 -$987,000).

Answers

Answer:

Manufacturing overhead= $59,000

Explanation:

Manufacturing overhead refers to indirect factory-related costs that are incurred when a product is manufactured. We need to identify the indirect costs incurred in production. It includes the depreciation of factory equipment.

Manufacturing overhead= Utilities, factory + Indirect labor + Depreciation of production equipment

Manufacturing overhead= 9,000 + 25,000 + 25,000

Manufacturing overhead= $59,000
