Answer 1

Answer:

Chin Company

Journal Entries

1. Issuance of the bonds:

Debit Cash $9,594,415

Debit Bond Discounts $405,585

Credit Bonds Liability $10,000,000

To record the issuance of the bonds at a discount.

2. June 30:

Debit Bond Interest Expense $383,777

Credit Cash $350,000

Credit Amortization of Bond Discount $33,777

To record the first interest payment and amortization of bond discount.

3. December 31:

Debit Bond Interest Expense $385,128

Credit Cash $350,000

Credit Amortization of Bond Discount $35,128

To record the second interest payment and amortization of bond discount.

b. The amount of the bond interest expense for the first year:

June 30: Bonds' Interest expense = $383,777

Dec. 31: Bonds' Interest expense = $385,128

Total bond interest expense for the first year = $768,905

c. Chin Company was able to issue the bonds for only $9,594,415 rather than for the face amount of $10,000,000 because the bonds were issued at a discount and not face value.  Bonds can be issued at face value, discount, or premium, depending on the prevailing investor's sentiments and the attractiveness of the bonds to investors.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations

Face value of bonds = $10 million

Discounted value (Cash receipt) = $9,594,415

Total amount of discount = $405,585

Bond's interest rate = 7%

Market yield = 8%

Bond maturity period = 5 years

Payment period = semiannually

Issuance of the bonds:

Cash $9,594,415 Bond Discounts $405,585 Bonds Liability $10,000,000

June 30:

Cash payment for interest = $350,000 ($10,000,000 * 3.5%)

Bonds' Interest expense = $383,777 ($9,594,415 * 4%)

Amortization of bond discount = $33,777 ($383,777 - $350,000)

Bond book value = $9,628,192 ($9,594,415 + $33,777)

December 31:

Cash payment for interest = $350,000 ($10,000,000 * 3.5%)

Bonds' Interest expense = $385,128 ($9,628,192 * 4%)

Amortization of bond discount = $35,128 ( $385,128 - $350,000)

Bond book value = $9,663,410 ($9,628,192 + $35,218)

A manufacturing company applies factory overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that factory overhead costs would be $341,900 and direct labor hours would be 48,900. Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred were $307,800, and actual direct labor hours were 52,800. What is the predetermined overhead rate per direct labor hour

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

With regards to the above, the predetermined overhead rate is computed below.

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated factory overhead cost / Estimated direct labor hours

Given that;

Estimated factory overhead cost = $341,900

Estimated direct labor hours = 48,900

Therefore,

Predetermined overhead rate per direct labor hour

= $341,000 / 48,900

= $6.97 per direct labor hour

Gartner Manufacturing Inc. purchases a component from a Malaysian supplier. The demand for that component is exactly 70 units each day. The company is open for business 250 days each year. When the company reorders the product, the lead time from the supplier is exactly 10 days. The product costs $14.00. The company determined that its inventory carrying cost is 20%. The company's order cost is $30.00. How many orders per year will be made, when using the EOQ

Answers

Answer:

Number of orders= 28.59 = 29 orders

Explanation:

Economic order quantity (EOQ) is the ideal order quantity a company should purchase to minimize inventory costs such as holding costs, shortage costs, and order costs.

Economic order quantity (EOQ)= √[(2*D*S)/H]

D= Demand in units

S= Order cost

H= Holding cost

D= 70*250= 17,500

S= $30

H= 14*0.2= $2.8

Now, using the formula:

EOQ= √[(2*17,500*30) / 2.8]

EOQ= √375,000

EOQ= 612.37 = 612

Finally, the number of orders:

Number of orders= total demand / EOQ

Number of orders= 17,500 / 612

Number of orders= 28.59 = 29 orders

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 inventory

Answers

Answer:

$173,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total consolidated inventory is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Percentage profits that Alpha charge to other customers is

= ($800,000 - $600,000) ÷ $800,000

= 25% of sales

Stock held at year end is

= $100,000 × 40%

= $40,000

Profit involved in stock is

= $40,000 × 25%

= $10,000

Now the stock of beta is  

= $88,000 - $10,000

= $78,000

And finally, the Total for consolidated inventory is

= $95,000 + $78,000

= $173,000

Your retirement fund consists of a $7,500 investment in each of 20 different common stocks. The portfolio's beta is 0.65. Suppose you sell one of the stocks with a beta of 1.0 for $7,500 and use the proceeds to buy another stock whose beta is 2.25. Calculate your portfolio's new beta. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.7125

Explanation:

Calculation to determine your portfolio's new beta.

First step is to calculate the Increase in beta as a result of net sales

Increase in beta as a result of net sales=2.25-1

Increase in beta as a result of net sales=1.25

Hence:

increase/stock=1.25/20=0.0625

Now let calculate the new beta

New beta=0.65+0.0625

New beta=0.7125

Therefore your portfolio's new beta will be 0.7125

Black Oil Company considered building a service station in a new location. The owners and their accountants decided that this was the profitable thing to do. However, soon after they made this decision, both the interest rate and the cost of building the station changed. In which case do these changes both make it less likely that they will now build the station?

Answers

Answer: An increase in the Interest rates and the cost of building the station

Explanation:

Before setting out to do business, most companies and investors calculate the cost of setting up the business and what they stand to gain when the business does well and when it doesn't. Most of these analysis are done when the business is being put into consideration. When there is a change in cost of any of the items put into consideration, the business would either be carried out or cancelled. What could discourage the Black oil company would be either an increase in interest rates or cost of building the station.

b. What raw materials cost would be included in the company's flexible budget for March?
c. What is the materials price variance for March?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials: 5 pounds at $8.00 per pound $40.00

The planning budget for March was based on producing and selling 25,000 units.

a)

The material cost included in the planning budget is the standard cost multiplied for the budgeted production.

Direct material requiered= 25,000*5= 100,000 pounds

Standard cost per pound= $5

Direct material budget= 100,000*5= $500,000

b)

The raw material's flexible budget adapts to the actual production level.

Direct material flexible budget= standard cost*actual material used in production

Direct material flexible budget= 5*160,000

Direct material flexible budget= $800,000

c)

To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (5 - 7.5)*160,000

Direct material price variance= $400,000 unfavorable

For the U.S. soft drink market, of the 300 million people in the U.S., 80% of the population is the maximum number of consuming units. The average soft drink consumer buys 365 soft drinks a year at an average price of $0.98 per drink. What is the annual market potential of soft drink in dollar value

Answers

Answer:

Annual market potential = $85,848 millions

Explanation:

The annual market potential is the expected sales value for the soft drink product  for a year should the maximum number of potential consumers purchase the product at the average price.

Annual market potential = Average price × No of consuming unit × consumption rate per annum

Maximum number of consuming unit = 80%× 300 million =240 million

A portfolio is composed of two stocks, A and B. Stock A has a standard deviation of return of 23%, while stock B has a standard deviation of return of 29%. Stock A comprises 70% of the portfolio, while stock B comprises 30% of the portfolio. If the variance of return on the portfolio is 0.042, the correlation coefficient between the returns on A and B is _________. Multiple Choice 0.088 0.304 0.213 0.091

Answers

Answer:

0.304

Explanation:

The calculation has been done step by step in order to understand the final result. Note that (p) in the below working refers to the correlation coefficient between Stock A and B.

0.042 = (0.70^2)(0.23^2) + (0.30^2)(0.29^2) + 2(0.70)(0.30)(0.23)(0.29)p

0.042 = 0.0259 + 0.0076 + 0.028p

0.042 = 0.0335 + 0.028p

0.042 - 0.0335 = 0.028p

0.0085 = 0.028p

p = 0.0085 / 0.028

p = 0.304

The Argentine peso was fixed through a currency board at Ps1.00/$ throughout the 1990s. In January 2002 the Argentine peso was floated. On January 29, 2003 it was trading at Ps3.20/$. During that one year period Argentina's inflation rate was 20% on an annualized basis. Inflation in the United States during that same period was 2.2% annualized.

Required:
a. What should have been the exchange rate in January 2003 if PPP held?
b. By what percentage was the Argentine peso undervalued on an annualized basis?
c. What were the probable causes of undervaluation?

Answers

Answer:

1. 1.17416 peso/$

2. -63.30%

Explanation:

1. The exchange rate in January if PPP is held

1.00 = exchange rate

20 % = inflation in Argentina

0.22% = us inflation

1.00(1+0.20)/(1+0.022)

= 1.00x1.20/1.022

= 1.17416 pesos/$

B. Percentage by which pesos was devalued

(PPP/actual exchange rate)-1

= 1.17416/3.20 -1

= 0.366925-1

= -0.6330

= -63.30%

C. At 20 % we can see that inflation is really high in Argentina which is probably the reason for the undervaluation. But the truth is inflation alone cannot be held responsible. Severe crisis in Argentinas balance of payment is partly responsible
