Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. At what price were the bonds issued?
The bonds were issued at $250 million since the issue price will have thesame value as the face value in this case.
b. On July 1, 2019, the market interest rate for bonds of this risk class is 6%. What is the fair value of the bonds on this date?
The fair value of the bond on this date will be:
= {$250,000,000 × 4% × [(1-1.03)^-16]0.03} + {$250,000,000 × (1/1.03)^-16}
= $281402755
c. Suppose that 50% of the bonds were repurchased for cash on July 1, 2019, at the market price. What journal entry would the company make to record this partial retirement?
The journal entry will be:
July 1 ,2019
Debit Bond payable $250,000,000/2 = $125,000,000
Debit loss on bond redemption = $140,701,378 - $125,000,000 = $15,701,378
Credit Cash $281402755 × 50% = $140,701,378

On May 3, 2020, Sweet Company consigned 70 freezers, costing $450 each, to Remmers Company. The cost of shipping the freezers amounted to $890 and was paid by Sweet Company. On December 30, 2020, a report was received from the consignee, indicating that 35 freezers had been sold for $740 each. Remittance was made by the consignee for the amount due after deducting a commission of 6%, advertising of $200, and total installation costs of $330 on the freezers sold.
Required:
a. Compute the inventory value of the units unsold in the hands of the consignee.
b. Compute the profit for the consignor for the units sold.
c. Compute the amount of cash that will be remitted by the consignee.
Answer:
A. $16,195
B. $7,621
C. $23,816
Explanation:
a. Computation for the inventory value of the units unsold in the hands of the consignee.
Inventory value of the units unsold
First step is to calculate the Total inventory value
Inventory cost $31,500
(70 * $450)
Add Freight $890
Total inventory value $32,390
($31,500+$890)
Now let calculate the Inventory value of the units unsold
Inventory value of units unsold =($32,390 / 2)
Inventory value of units unsold =$16,195
Therefore the inventory value of the units unsold in the hands of the consignee is $16,195
b. Computation for the profit for the consignor for the units sold
Sales $25,900
(35 * $740)
Less Cost of unit sold ($16,195)
($32,390 / 2)
Less Commission ($1,554)
($25,900 * 6%)
Less Advertising ($200)
Less Installation cost ($330)
Profit for the consignor $7,621
Therefore the profit for the consignor for the units sold will be $7,621
c. Computation for the amount of cash that will be remitted by the consignee.
Sales $25,900
Less Commission ($1,554)
($25,900 * 6%)
Less Advertising ($200)
Less Installation cost ($330)
Cash remitted $23,816
Therefore the amount of cash that will be remitted by the consignee is $23,816
Recently, some college alumni started a moving service for students living on campus. They have 3 employees and are debating hiring one more. The hourly wage for an employee is $30 per hour. An average moving job takes 4 hours. The company currently does 3 moving jobs per week, but with one more employee, the company could manage 5 jobs per week. The company charges $100 for a moving job.
Instructions:
Round your answers to the nearest whole number.
a. The new employee's marginal product of labor is ______.
b. The value of that merginal product is ______.
c. The moving service should moving jobs ______- hire another worker.
Answer: a. 2
b. $200
c. Should not
Explanation:
a. The new employee's marginal product of labor is ______.
This will be:
= 5 - 3
= 2 moving jobs
b. The value of that marginal product is ______..
Since the company charges $100 for a moving job, the value of the marginal product will be:
= 2 × $100
= $200
c. The moving service should moving jobs ______- hire another worker
Marginal cost of moving 2 jobs will be:
= $30 × 4 × 2
= $240
Since the marginal cost is more than the marginal product, the company should not hire another worker.
Pamela was the agent in charge of distribution and collections for the Coble Dairy Products Cooperative. Thrower operated a grocery store and purchased dairy products from Coble. Pamela made false invoice sheets, showing delivery to Thrower of greater quantities than Thrower actually had ordered or received. Pamela collected from Thrower on the basis of these increased amounts, and then kept for herself the difference between the increased amounts and the amounts that should have been charged. When Thrower learned of this, he sued Coble for the excess payments he had made. Coble denied that Pamela was its agent in making excess collections. Will Thrower win?
Answer: Yes
Explanation:
This is an example of the law of agency. Since Pamela has been representing Coble in the past and engaging in transactions on behalf of Coble, any actions taking by Pamela is bidding on Coble which means that Thrower has the right to feel aggrieved with Coble and will win the case.

Calculate free cash flow for 2017 for Monarch Textiles, Inc., based on the financial information that follows. Assume that all current liabilities are non-interest-bearing liabilities and that no fixed assets were sold or disposed of during 2017. (Enter your answer in 1000s.) Monarch Textiles, Inc. ($ thousands) Income statement Selected balance sheet items 2017 2016 2017 Sales 1,490 Current assets 430 595 Cost of sales 830 Net fixed assets 152 304 Operating expenses 165 Current liabilities 265 345 Depreciation 76 Interest expense 50 Earnings before taxes 369.00 Tax 147.60 Net income 221.40
Answer:
$34.39
Explanation:
EBIT = EBT + Interest Expense
EBIT = 369.00 + 50
EBIT = $419
Tax Rate = Tax / EBT
Tax Rate = 147.60 / 419
Tax Rate = 0.352267
Tax Rate = 35.23%
Working Capital, 2017 = Current Assets, 2017 - Current Liabilities, 2017
Working Capital, 2017 = 595 - 345
Working Capital, 2017 = $250
Working Capital, 2016 = Current Assets, 2017 - Current Liabilities, 2017
Working Capital, 2016 = 430 - 265
Working Capital, 2016 = $165
Change in Working Capital = Working Capital, 2017 - Working Capital, 2016
Change in Working Capital = $250 - $165
Change in Working Capital = $85
Capital Expenditure = Net Fixed Assets, 2017 - Net Fixed Assets, 2016
Capital Expenditure = $304 - $152
Capital Expenditure = $152
Free Cash Flow = EBIT * (1 - Tax Rate) - Change in Working Capital - Capital Expenditure
Free Cash Flow = $419*(1- 35.23%) - $85 - $152
Free Cash Flow = $271.39 - $85 - $152
Free Cash Flow = $34.39
The free cash flow for 2017 for Monarch Textiles, Inc. is $34.39
What is free cash flow?Free cash flow (FCF) is the money a company has left, after paying off its operating expenses and capital expenditures. ·
We will calculate the below to arrive at the free cash flow.
EBIT = EBT + Interest Expense
EBIT = 369.00 + 50
EBIT = $419
Tax Rate = Tax / EBT
Tax Rate = 147.60 / 419
Tax Rate = 0.352267
Tax Rate = 35.23%
Working Capital, 2017 = Current Assets, 2017 - Current Liabilities, 2017
Working Capital, 2017 = 595 - 345
Working Capital, 2017 = $250
Working Capital, 2016 = Current Assets, 2017 - Current Liabilities, 2017
Working Capital, 2016 = 430 - 265
Working Capital, 2016 = $165
Change in Working Capital = Working Capital, 2017 - Working Capital, 2016
Change in Working Capital = $250 - $165
Change in Working Capital = $85
Capital Expenditure = Net Fixed Assets, 2017 - Net Fixed Assets, 2016
Capital Expenditure = $304 - $152
Capital Expenditure = $152
Free Cash Flow = EBIT * (1 - Tax Rate) - Change in Working Capital - Capital Expenditure
Free Cash Flow = $419*(1- 35.23%) - $85 - $152
Free Cash Flow = $271.39 - $85 - $152

A bank loan officer has been approached by a start-up company that needs a five-year loan to purchase the equipment for its first project. The project will have a life of five years. At the end of five years, the equipment will be worthless. The founders of the company told the loan officer that they would be willing to pay a much higher interest rate on a simple interest loan rather than contracting to an add-on interest loan.
A. The loan officer should offer the company an add-on interest loan because there is a high risk that the company will not be able to repay the principal on the loan at the end of the project's life.
B. The loan officer should offer the company a simple interest loan. The bank will make more money in the long run, because it can charge a much higher interest rate.
Answer:
A.
Explanation:

Sheffield Inc. manufactures two products: car wheels and truck wheels. To determine the amount of overhead to assign to each product line, the controller, Robert Hermann, has developed the following information.
Car Truck
Estimated wheels produced 36,000 11,000
Direct labor hours per wheel 1 3
Total estimated overhead costs for the two product lines are $731,400.
Required:
Calculate overhead rate.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $10.6 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Car Truck
Estimated wheels produced 36,000 11,000
Direct labor hours per wheel 1 3
Total estimated overhead costs for the two product lines are $731,400.
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
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 731,400 / (1*36,000 + 3*11,000)
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $10.6 per direct labor hour

Scott Bestor is an accountant for Westfield Company. Early this year, Scott made a highly favorable projection of sales and profits over the next 3 years for Westfield's hot-selling computer PLEX. As a result of the projections Scott presented to senior management, the company decided to expand production in this area. This decision led to dislocations of some plant personnel who were reassigned to one of the company's newer plants in another state. However, no one was fired, and in fact the company expanded its workforce slightly. Unfortunately, Scott rechecked his projection computations a few months later and found that he had made an error that would have reduced his projections substantially. Luckily, sales of PLEX have exceeded projections so far, and management is satisfied with its decision. Scott, however, is not sure what to do. Should he confess his honest mistake and jeopardize his possible promotion
Answer:
Scott Bestor should confess his honest mistake.
Explanation:
Two of most important attributes that are required from an accountant are integrity and trustworthiness.
Refusing to tell the management his honest mistake in order not jeopardize his possible promotion is a short-run gain to him. But confessing his honest mistake has a long run gain as this will preserve his integrity and trustworthiness forever. In addition, it is unethical and a sign of disloyalty for an accountant not to disclose all the information relevant to the company based on his position as an account.
Therefore, Scott Bestor should confess his honest mistake rather than sacrificing his integrity and trustworthiness as well as the ethic of his profession for a short-term gain (i.e. promotion).
Yard Tools manufactures lawnmowers, weed-trimmers, and chainsaws. Its sales mix and unit contribution margin are as follows. Sales Mix Unit Contribution Margin Lawnmowers 20 % $33 Weed-trimmers 50 % $22 Chainsaws 30 % $41 Yard Tools has fixed costs of $4,544,800. Compute the number of units of each product that Yard Tools must sell in order to break even under this product mix. Lawnmowers units Weed-trimmers units Chainsaws units
Answer:
Results are below.
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= 0.2*33 + 0.5*22 + 0.3*41
Weighted average contribution margin= $29.9
Break-even point (units)= 4,544,800 / 29.9
Break-even point (units)= 152,000 units
Now, for each product:
Lawnmowers= 0.2*152,000=30,400
Weed-trimmers= 0.5*152,000= 76,000
Chainsaws= 0.3*152,000= 45,600
Clampett, Incorporated, converted to an S corporation on January 1, 2020. At that time, Clampett, Incorporated, had cash ($54,000), inventory (FMV $74,000, basis $37,000), accounts receivable (FMV $54,000, basis $54,000), and equipment (FMV $74,000, basis $94,000). In 2021, Clampett, Incorporated, sells its entire inventory for $74,000 (basis $37,000). Assume the corporate tax rate is 21 percent. Clampett, Incorporated's taxable income in 2021 would have been $1,000,000 if it had been a C corporation. How much built-in gains tax does Clampett, Incorporated, pay in 2021
Answer:
$3,570
Explanation:
Particulars FMV Basis Differences
Inventory $74,000 $37,000 $37,000
Accounts receivable $54,000 $54,000 $0
Equipment $74,000 $94,000 -$20,000
Taxable gain $17,000
Tax rate = 21%
So, Built-in gains tax = Taxable gain × tax rate
= $17,000 × 21%
= $3,570

The following facts relate to Oriole Corporation.
1. Deferred tax liability, January 1, 2020, $41,600.
2. Deferred tax asset, January 1, 2020, $0.
3. Taxable income for 2020, $98,800.
4. Pretax financial income for 2020, $104,000.
5. Cumulative temporary difference at December 31, 2020, giving rise to future taxable amounts, $249,600.
6. Cumulative temporary difference at December 31, 2020, giving rise to future deductible amounts, $36,400.
7. Tax rate for all years, 20%.
8. The company is expected to operate profitably in the future.
1. Compute income taxes payable for 2020:
2. Prepare the journal entry to record income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable for 2020.
3. Prepare the income tax expense section of the income statement for 2020, beginning with the line "Income before income taxes."
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The income taxes payable for 2020 will be:
= Taxable income for 2020 × Tax rate
= $98,800 × 20%
= $98,800 × 0.2
= $19760
b. The journal entry to record income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable for 2020 goes thus:
Income tax expense:
= Pretax financial income for 2020 × Tax rate
= $104,000 × 20%
= $104,000 × 0.2
= $20800
The income taxes payable = $19760
Cumulative temporary difference at December 31, 2020, giving rise to future taxable amounts = $249,600
Deferred tax liability required at December 31, 2020:
= $249,600 × 20%
= $49920
Deferred tax liability, January 1, 2020 = $41600
Therefore, the increase in deferred tax liability in 2020 will be:
= $49920 - $41600
= $8320
Cumulative temporary difference at December 31, 2020, giving rise to future deductible amounts = $36,400
Deferred tax assets balance required at December 31, 2020 will be:
= $36,400 × 20%
= $36400 × 0.2
= $7280
Deferred tax asset, January 1, 2020 = $0
Therefore, the increase in the deferred tax asset in 2020 will be:
= $7280 - 0
= $7,280
Therefore, the journal entry will be:
Debit Income Tax Expense = $20800
Debit Defered Tax Asset = $7,280
Credit Income Tax Payable = $19760
Credit Defered Tax Liability = $8320
(To record income tax expense, defered assets and defered liabilities)
c. The income tax expense section of the income statement for 2020 will be:
Income before Income Tax = $104000
Less: Income Tax expense - Current = $19760
Less: Income Tax expense - Defered = $1040
Net income = $83200
Howard's Supply Co. suffered a fire loss on April 20, 2021. The company's last physical inventory was taken January 30, 2021, at which time the inventory totaled $226,000. Sales from January 30 to April 20 were $606,000 and purchases during that time were $456,000. Howard's consistently reports a 30% gross profit. The estimated inventory loss is: Multiple Choice
Answer:
$257,800
Explanation:
According to the scenario, calculation of the given data are as follows,
Inventory on Jan. 30,2021 = $226,000
Sales = $606,000
Purchase = $456,000
Gross profit = 30% × $606,000 = $181,800
So, we can calculate the inventory loss by using following formula,
Inventory loss = COG for sale - COG sold
= ($226,000 + $456,000) - ($606,000 - $181,800)
= $682,000 - $424,200
= $257,800
A growing trend to "Buy American" may encourage law makers to increase political pressure for Washington to pass legislation for more restrictive quotas on Japanese car imports. In addition, a decline in the value of the US dollar would be instrumental in Toyota’s decision to build a manufacturing plant in the United States instead of continuing to export cars from Japan. If Toyota builds a plant, it’s decision would effect...
Answer: positive result from regulatory and economic environmental forces.
Explanation:
Based on the information given, if Toyota builds a plant, then the decision would reflect positive result from the regulatory and economic environmental forces.
The regulatory forces depend impact how an organization will operate. It is part of the external marketing environment of a company whereby the political efforts has an affect on a company's marketing effort.

Assume that Jones Co. will need to purchase 100,000 Singapore dollars (S$) in 180 days. Today's spot rate of the S$ is $.50, and the 180-day forward rate is $.53. A call option on S$ exists, with an exercise price of $.52, a premium of $.02, and a 180-day expiration date. A put option on S$ exists, with an exercise price of $.51, a premium of $.02, and a 180-day expiration date. Jones has developed the following probability distribution for the spot rate in 180 days: The probability that the forward hedge will result in a higher payment than the options hedge is ____ (include the amount paid for the premium when estimating the U.S. dollars required for the options hedge).
Answer:
10%
Explanation:
Based on the information given The PROBABILITY that the FORWARD HEDGE will tend to result in a higher payment than the OPTIONS HEDGE is 10% which indicate or means that Jones will pay the amount of $48,000 calculated as ( $.48 *$100,000) which is lower or lesser than the amount of $58,000 calculated as ( $.53 *$100,000) that was been paid with the forward hedge.
Ringmeup Inc had net income of $126,300 for the year ended December 31, 2013. At the beginning of the year, 44,000 shares of common stock were outstanding. On May 1, an additional 13,000 shares were issued. On December 1, the company purchased 4,500 shares of its own common stock and held them as treasury stock until the end of the year. No other changes in common shares outstanding occurred during the year. During the year, Ringmeup, Inc., paid the annual dividend on the 7,000 shares of 4.75%, $100 par value preferred stock that were outstanding the entire year. Calculate basic earnings per share of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2013
Answer:
$1.78
Explanation:
Basic Earnings Per Share = Earnings attributable to Common Stock Holders / Weighted Average number of shares outstanding at the end of year
Earnings attributable to common stockholders = Net Income - Preferred Stock Dividend paid in the year
Earnings attributable to common stockholders = $126,300 - ($100*4.75%*7,000 Shares)
Earnings attributable to common stockholders = $126,300 - $33,250
Earnings attributable to common stock holders = $93,050
Weighted Average number of shares outstanding at the end of year = (44,000 * 11/12) + [(44,000 - 4,500) * 1/12] + (13,000 * 8/12)
= 40,333.33 + 3,291.67 + 8,666.67
= 52,291.67
Basic Earnings Per Share = $93,050 / 52,291.67 shares
Basic Earnings Per Share = $1.78
Zing Coffee Company produces Columbian coffee in batches of 6,500 pounds. The standard quantity of materials required in the process is 6,500 pounds, which cost $6 per pound. Columbian coffee can be sold without further processing for $9 per pound. Columbian coffee can also be processed further to yield Decaf Columbian, which can be sold for $12 per pound. The processing into Decaf Columbian requires additional processing costs of $10.230 per batch. The additional processing will also cause a 5% loss of product due to evaporation.
a. Prepare a differential analysis dated October 6, 2014 on whether to sell regular Columbian (Alternative 1) or process further into Decaf Columbian (Alternative 2).
b. Determine the price of Deaf Columbian that would cause neither an advantage nor a disadvantage for processing further and selling Decaf Columbian.

In this case, which of the following actions by Grensfield to raise funds is likely to receive the most support from the public?
a. Coupling employee contribution plans with tax exemption benefits
b. Banning all types of labor unions
c. Doing away with employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) and 401(k) plans
d. Requesting extensive employee involvement in defined contribution pension plans
Answer:
The action by Grensfield State that is likely to receive the most support from the public is:
a. Coupling employee contribution plans with tax exemption benefits
Explanation:
The employees of Grensfield State, including the public, would support pension contribution plans that are coupled with tax exemption benefits. The exemption benefits make contribution plans attractive to the workers. Engaging in any of the other three actions will not solve the pending problem nor win the support of the public to the state government's plans.

if a co worker asks for help with something but you're busy finishing a task, what should you say? A I have to finish this but I'm happy to help when I'm finished B I can't help you today C I'm busy can you ask someone else
Answer:
A
Explanation:
it shows that you still value the co worker and are still willing to help so its up to them if they wait then that means its something you can do whatever that might be but if said co worker moves on to another for help that means that they couldn't wait or it was something that needed two people, a trivial task.
A male worker meets and regularly exceeds the work standards in the coding unit while the female workers in the unit usually, but not always, meet basic work standards. Based upon this information, the supervisor did not recommend a merit increase for the male worker since this increase would result in him receiving a higher wage than the female workers in the same unit. Given the scenario, determine which (if any) federal regulatory requirement has been violated
Answer:
The Federal regulatory requirement here which has been breached is Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Explanation:
Acording to SEC. 2000e-2. [Section 703]
"(a) Employer practices
It shall be an unlawful employment practice for an employer -
(1) to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or otherwise to discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; or
(2) to limit, segregate, or classify his employees or applicants for employment in any way which would deprive or tend to deprive any individual of employment opportunities or otherwise adversely affect his status as an employee, because of such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin."
The supervisor might have been attempting to create equality. However, the results of the work stand out. By refusing to reward the male worker, the supervisor has discriminated against him on the basis of his gender. His work deserves merit. The work of the female worker does not.
Hence the supervisor is in violation of the statue refered above.

Related to this note, Qwest should report interest payable at December 31, 2021, in the amount of: (Round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar.) Multiple Choice $39,920. $33,267. None of these answer choices are correct. $6,653. $26,613.
Answer:
Interest Payable - 2021 = $6653.33 rounded off to 6653
Explanation:
The accrual principle in accounting requires the revenue and expenses for a period to be matched and recorded in their corresponding or respective periods. Thus, even though the interest on note will be paid at maturity in 2022, the interest expense related to the month of November 2021 and December 2021 will be recorded in the current year at 31 December as interest payable.
Interest Payable - 2021 = 499000 * 8% * 2/12
Interest Payable - 2021 = $6653.33 rounded off to 6653
A review of current distribution procedures reveals that the Valley Voice employs 100 truck drivers to drop off bundles of newspapers to 1,300 teenagers who deliver papers to individual homes. The drivers are paid an hourly wage while the teenagers receive 4 cents for each paper they deliver.
Turkey is considering an alternative method of distributing the papers, which he says has worked in other cities the size of Flower Mound (where the Valley Voice is published). Under the new system, the newspaper would retain 20 truck drivers to transport papers to five distribution centers around the city. The distribution centers are operated by independent contractors who would be responsible for making their own arrangements to deliver papers to subscribers’ homes. The 20 drivers retained by the Valley Voice would receive the same hourly rate as they currently earn, and the independent contractors would receive 20 cents for each paper delivered.
Required:
1. What payroll information does Turkey need in order to make a decision about adopting the alternative distribution method?
2. Assume the following information:
a. The average driver earns $42,000 per year.
b. Average employee income tax withholding is 15 percent.
c. The social security tax is 6.2 percent of the first $122,700 of earnings.
d. The Medicare tax is 1.45 percent of all earnings.
e. The state unemployment tax is 5 percent, and the federal unemployment tax is 0.6 percent of the first $7,000 of earnings.
f. Workers’ compensation insurance is 70 cents per $100 of wages.
g. The paper pays $300 per month for health insurance for each driver and contributes $250 per month to each driver’s pension plan.
h. The paper has liability insurance coverage for all teenage carriers that costs $100,000 per year.
3. Prepare a schedule showing the costs of distributing the newspapers under the current system and the proposed new system. Based on your analysis, which system would you recommend to Turkey?
4. What other factors, monetary and nonmonetary, might influence your decision?

1. It needs to know the total costs incurred under the old system and the new system.
2. See schedules below showing the costs under the two distribution systems.
3. The old system wins under economic considerations, especially given the fact that the publisher is currently experiencing profit squeeze.
4. If the amount paid per paper to the independent contractors can be renegotiated downwards, this may change the decision. With the new arrangement, will more papers be sold each day? Labor practices and laws do not favor the use of teenagers as workers. Will the company face some penalties or sanctions as a result? What about the bad publicity that the paper will face as a backlash following the use of teenagers? There are other considerations.
