Answer:
(a) The amount needed is $192,000.
(b) The monthly payment is $150.98.
Explanation:
Note: There are errors in this question. The correct question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Susan and Bill Stamp want to set up a TDA that will generate sufficient interest at maturity to meet their living expenses, which they project to be $1,200 per month. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)
(a) Find the amount needed at maturity to generate $1,200 per month interest, if they can get 7.25% interest compounded monthly.
(b) Find the monthly payment that they would have to make into an ordinary annuity to obtain the future value found in part (a) if their money earns 9.75% and the term is twenty years.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
(a) Find the amount needed at maturity to generate $1,200 per month interest, if they can get 7.25% interest compounded monthly.
This can be calculated using the following future value formula:
FV = P / i ........................... (1)
Where;
FV = Amount needed at maturity = ?
P = Monthly payment or amount to generate monthly = $1,200
i = monthly interest rate = Annual interest rate / 12 = 7.25% / 12 = 0.075 / 12 = 0.00625
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $1,200 / 0.00625 = $192,000
Therefore, the amount needed is $192,000.
(b) Find the monthly payment that they would have to make into an ordinary annuity to obtain the future value found in part (a) if their money earns 9.75% and the term is twenty years.
This can be calculated using the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (2)
Where,
FV = Future value = $192,000
M = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = 9.75% / 12 = 0.0975 / 12 = 0.008125
n = number of months = 25 years * Number of months in a year = 25 * 12 = 300
Substituting the values into equation (2) and solve for M, we have:
$192,000 = M * (((1 + 0.008125)^300 - 1) / 0.008125)
$192,000 = M * 1271.65920375075
M = $192,000 / 1271.65920375075
M = $150.98
Therefore, the monthly payment is $150.98.

Answer:
Sweet Shop Co.
Accounting Effects of Transactions:
a. Ordered and received $12,300 worth of cotton candy machines from Candy Makers Inc., which Sweet Shop Co. will pay for in 45 days.
Assets (Equipment +$12,300) = Liabilities (Accounts Payable +$12,300) + Equity
b. Sent a check for $6,300 to Candy Makers Inc. for the cotton candy machines from (a).
Assets (Cash -$6,300) = Liabilities (Accounts payable -$6,300) + Equity
c. Received $700 from customers who bought candy on account in previous months.
Assets (Cash +$700) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings +$700)
d. To help raise funds for store upgrades estimated to cost $36,500, Sweet Shop Co. issued 1,300 common shares for $25 each to existing stockholders.
Assets (Cash +$32,500) = Liabilities + Equity (Common stock +$32,500)
e. Sweet Shop Co. bought ice cream trucks for $66,000 total, paying $13,000 cash and signing a long-term note for $53,000.
Assets (Trucks +$66,000; Cash -$13,000) = Liabilities (Long-term note payable +$53,000) + Equity
Explanation:
The accounting effects of transactions show how the accounting equation will always remain in balance given each transaction's double-entry effects.

Ketchup is a complement (as well as a condiment) for hot dogs. If the price of hot dogs rises, the quantity of hot dogs demanded ____________, which _________ the demand for ketchup. Because of the change in the equilibrium quantity of ketchup, the demand for tomatoes by ketchup producers ___________, causing the equilibrium price of tomatoes to___________. This means producers of tomato juice face__________ input prices, and the supply curve for tomato juice ____________). The resulting ____________ in the price of tomato juice causes people to substitute (away from tomato juice and toward orange juice/away from orange juice and toward tomato juice), so the demand for orange juice ________.
Answer:
Falls; lowers; falls; decrease; lower; increases; fall; away from orange juice and toward; fall.
Explanation:
In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.
The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal. On the other hand, law of supply states that the higher the price of goods and services, the lower the supply.
Generally, consumers would like to be buy a product as its price falls or become inexpensive.
For substitute or complement products (goods), the price elasticity of demand is always positive because the demand of a product increases when the price of its close substitute (alternative) increases.
In this scenario, Ketchup is a complement (as well as a condiment) for hot dogs. If the price of hot dogs rises, the quantity of hot dogs demanded falls, which lowers the demand for ketchup. Because of the change in the equilibrium quantity of ketchup, the demand for tomatoes by ketchup producers falls, causing the equilibrium price of tomatoes to decrease. This means producers of tomato juice face lower input prices, and the supply curve for tomato juice increases. The resulting fall in the price of tomato juice causes people to substitute away from orange juice and toward tomato juice, so the demand for orange juice falls.
a) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $111,111 received every year. The first cash flow occurs in year 1. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate. b) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $222,222 received every second year. The first cash flow occurs in year 2. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate. c) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $333,333 received every third year. The first cash flow occurs in year 3. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.
Answer:
a) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $111,111 received every year. The first cash flow occurs in year 1. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.
PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $111,111 / 11% = $1,010,100
b) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $222,222 received every second year. The first cash flow occurs in year 2. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.
PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $222,222 / (11% x 2) = $1,010,100
c) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $333,333 received every third year. The first cash flow occurs in year 3. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.
PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $333,333 / (11% x 3) = $1,010,100
Explanation:
Since the interest rate is simple, not compounded, the three perpetuities have the same present value.

Mohawk Machining, which uses a process-costing system, adds material at the beginning of production and incurs conversion cost evenly throughout manufacturing. The following selected information was taken from the company's accounting records: Total equivalent units of materials: 8,000 Total equivalent units of conversion: 7,400 Units started and completed during the period: 6,500 On the basis of this information, the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:_____.
A- 80%.
B- 70%.
C- 60%. - 40%.
D- some other percentage not listed above.
Answer:
C. 60%
Explanation:
Equivalent unit of Materials = 8,000.00
Equivalent unit of Conversion = 7,400.00
Units started and completed = 6,500.00
Since Materials are entered in the beginning it means that out of 8000 Units of Materials 6500 units are in Units started and completed and remaining 1500 Units are in Closing inventory. It also means that 1500 units are in Closing Inventory of Conversion and Equivalent production of conversion part of 1500 Units are 900 Units (7400-6500).
Let % Completion be x
X% of 1500 = 900
X = 900*100/1500
X = 60%.
Batch Co. employs knowledge workers and is finding that its employees are retiring closer to age 75 than to age 65. As a result, they recently amended their defined benefit pension plan such that benefits will begin at age 72, with certain exceptions for those employees demonstrating an earlier need, instead of at age 60. Batch Co. has been able to measure the actuarial present value of this amendment, which is the change in the projected benefit obligation (PBO) that results from the change. How will this affect pension expense in current and future periods?
Answer:
It will decrease prior service cost and, as prior service cost is amortized, will decrease pension expense.
Explanation:
In the given if there is any change in the projected benefit obligation so the pension expense would impact in the present and future period by reducing the service cost that incurred before also the service cost that incurred before would be amortized that ultimately reduce the pension expense
Therefore the first option is correct

You are considering an investment in Crew Cut, Inc. and want to evaluate the firm's free cash flow. From the income statement, you see that Crew Cut earned an EBIT of $23.18 million, paid taxes of $3.82 million, and its depreciation expense was $7.82 million. Crew Cut's gross fixed assets increased by $10.18 million from 2017 to 2018. The firm's current assets increased by $6.18 million and spontaneous current liabilities increased by $3.82 million. What is Crew Cut's operating cash flow, investment in operating capital and free cash flow for 2018, respectively in millions
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
•Crew Cut's operating cash flow was;
Operating cash flow = EBIT - Taxes + Depreciation
= $23.18 million - $3.82 million + $7.82 million
= $27.18 million
• Investment in operating capital for 2018
Investment in operating capital = Change in gross fixed assets + Change in net working capital
= $10.18 million + ($6.18 million - $3.82 million)
= $10.18 million + $2.36 million
= $12.54 million
• Free cash flow for 2018
Free cash flow = Operating cash flow - Investment in operating capital
= $27.18 million - $12.54 million
= $14.64 million

An entrepreneur recently purchased Cocoon's, a local deli, on the beach. To operate the business, she estimates that selling and administrative expenses will be $98,510.00 per year and that depreciation will be $20,000.00 per year. As part of her purchase, she took out a bank loan that will require $76,265.00 per year in interest. She anticipates paying a 32.00% tax rate on income. She estimates that the deli will attract 200.00 customers per day. Each customer will spend $12.00 on average. The cost of goods per customer will be $4.50. She will operate the deli 350.00 days per year. What is the projected net profit margin for the deli
Answer:
27%
Explanation:
The computation of the net profit margin is shown below;
As we know that
net profit margin = Net profit ÷ sales
where
net profit is
Particulars Amount
Sales (200 customers × $12 × 350 days) $840,000
Less: cost of goods sold (200 customers × $4.50 × 350 days) -$315,000
Gross profit $525,000
Less:
Selling and admin expense -$98,510
Depreciation expense - $20,000
Bank loan interest -$76,265
Net income before tax $330,225
Less tax at 32% -$105,672
Net income after tax $224,553
Now the net profit margin is
= $224,553 ÷ $840,000
= 27%

Answer:
$159,500
Explanation:
The computation of the ending stockholder equity at the current year is given below:
As we know that
Total assets = Total liabilities + stockholder equity
Now both are increased by some amount, so the ending stockholder equity at the current year is
= ($870,000 + $59,000) - ($745,000 + $24,500)
= ($929,000) - ($769,500)
= $159,500

On the one hand, the term of "direct cost" in the field of management and accounting refers to the type of cost that is directly associated with the production of a good in particular. So that basically means that a direct cost of a product is something that was extremely necessary to use in the production of it or in the other case it could not have been made.
On the other hand, the term of "indirect cost" refers to the whole opposite concept, meaning that the indirect cost will be those who can not be directly associated with a product or its production but instead it is implicated actually with a whole other activites in the company, such is the case of the electricity of the building.

True or False
I say true because it seems like most likely answer.
The following data relate to the Torrence Company for May and August:
May August
Maintenance hours 25000 29,000
Maintenance cost $1175,000 $1247,000
May and August were the lowest and highest activity levels, and Torrence uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior. If maintenance hours are estimated to be 26,000 hours in October, which of the following statements is true?
a. The variable maintenance cost is $24 per hour.
b. The fixed maintenance cost is $72,000 per month.
c. More than one of the other answers is true.
d. The variable maintenance cost is $22 per hour.
e. The variable maintenance cost is $18 per hour.
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $18 per unit
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary and fixed costs under the high-low method:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (1,247,000 - 1,175,000) / (29,000 - 25,000)
Variable cost per unit= $18 per unit
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 1,247,000 - (18*29,000)
Fixed costs= $725,000
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 1,175,000 - (18*24,000)
Fixed costs= $725,000
Total cost= 725,000 + 18*x
x= number of hours
For 26,000:
Total cost= 725,000 + 18*26,000
Total cost= $1,193,000
