Answer:
Identifying a single, researchable question for the stated issues:
a. How probable will it be that this customer pays within 30 days?
b. How probable is it for a liability to arise from this lawsuit?
Explanation:
A good research question should be specifically focused on a single issue or some closely related ideas. This will ensure the generation of a good thesis statement. A research question that is too general or is not focused on one topic makes it difficult to carry out the research. The only solution will be to narrow down the topic to a single researchable issue. A good research question provides a clear direction. It should provide the basis for meaningful understanding of an issue through investigation.
You are analyzing a large stable company. For the year ending 12/31/2015 the company reported earnings of $58,900 and book value at the end of 2015 was $371,700. You expect earnings to grow at 5% a year in perpetuity, and the dividend payout ratio of 70% to continue. The company borrows at 8%, and has a cost of equity of 12%. The company has 25,000 shares outstanding. What is your estimate of price per share using the dividend discount model at 12/31/2015
Answer:
$24.74
Explanation:
Total earnings for the year ending 12/31/2015= $58,900
dividend payout ratio=70%
current year total dividends= $58,900*70%
current year total dividends=$41,230.00
current dividend per share=current year total dividends/shares outstanding
current dividend per share=$41,230.00/25,000
current dividend per share=$1.6492
expected dividend=current dividend per share*(1+growth rate)
growth rate of dividends forever=5%
expected dividend=$1.6492*(1+5%)
expected dividend=$1.73166
share price=expected dividend/(cost of equity-growth rate)
cost of equity=12%
share price=$1.73166/(12%-5%)
share price=$24.74
Ayala Inc. has conducted the following analysis related to its product lines, using a traditional costing system (volume-based) and an activity-based costing system. Both the traditional and the activity-based costing systems include direct materials and direct labor costs.
Products Sales Revenue Traditional ABC
Product 540X $195,000 $56,000 $46,600
Product 137Y 158,000 55,000 37,000
Product 249S 84,000 10,000 37,400
Instructions
a) For each product line, compute operating income using the traditional costing system.
b) For each product line, compute operating income using the activity-based costing system
c) Using the following formula, compute the percentage difference in operating income for each of the product lines of Ayala:{Operating Income (ABC)-Operating Income traditional cost)]divided operating Income (traditional cost)(round the percentage to two decimals).
Answer:
a. Operating income of Product 540X under traditional costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $195,000 - $56,000 = $139,000
Operating income of Product 137Y under traditional costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $158,000 - $55,000 = $103,000
Operating income of Product 249S under traditional costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $84,000 - $10,000 = $74,000
b. Operating income of Product 540X under activity-based costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $195,000 - $46,600 = $148,400
Operating income of Product 137Y under activity-based costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $158,000 - $37,000 = $121,000
Operating income of Product 249S under activity-based costing system: Operating income = Revenue - Operating cost = $84,000 - $37,400 = $46,600
c. % of the difference between the operating income of Product 540X under traditional costing system and ABC system = Operating Income (ABC) - [Operating Income (Traditional cost)/Operating Income (Traditional cost)] * 100
= $148,400 - $139,000/$139,000 * 100
= $9,400/$139,000 * 100
= 0.0676258992805755 * 100
= 6.76%
% of the difference between the operating income of Product 137Y under traditional costing system and ABC system = Operating Income (ABC) - [Operating Income (Traditional cost)/Operating Income (Traditional cost)] * 100
= $121,000 - $103,000/$103,000 * 100
= $18,000/$103,000*100
= 0.1747572815533981 * 100
= 17.48%
% of the difference between the operating income of Product 249S under traditional costing system and ABC system = Operating Income (ABC) - [Operating Income (Traditional cost)/Operating Income (Traditional cost)] * 100
= $46,600 - $74,000/$74,000 * 100
= -$27,400/$74,000 * 100
= -0.3702702702702703 * 100
= -37.03%
On April 1, Cyclone Co. purchases a trencher for $280,000. The machine is expected to last five years and have a salvage value of $40,000. Exercise 8-12 Double-declining-balance, partial-year depreciation LO C2 Compute depreciation expense at December 31 for both the first year and second year assuming the company uses the double-declining-balance method. (Enter all amounts as positive values.)
Answer:
Year 1 = $84,000Year 2 = $78,400Explanation:
Double declining means that the asset is depreciating at double the rate that it would with straight method:
Straight line depreciation = 280,000 / 5 years
= $56,000
Rate = 56,000 / 280,000 = 20%
Double declining will be:
= 20 * 2 = 40%
Year 1 Depreciation:
= 40% * 280,000 * 9/12 months
= $84,000
Year 2 Deprecation:
= 40% * Net book value
= 40% * (280,000 - 84,000)
= $78,400
Steelcase has received orders of 2400, 2200, 2700, and 2500 units of a special-purpose panel for each of the next four months. SC can meet these demands by producing the panel, by drawing from its inventory, or by using any combination of the two alternatives. The production costs during each of the next four months are projected to be $74, $75, $76, and $76.5 per unit. Because costs are rising each month, SC might be better off producing more panel than it needs in a given month and storing the excess. Production capacity, though, cannot exceed 4000 units in any one month. The monthly production is finished at the end of the month at which time the demand is met. Any remaining panel is then stored in inventory at a cost of $1.2 per panel for each month that it remains there. If production level is increased from one month to the next, then the company incurs a cost of $0.5 per unit of increased production to cover the additional labor and/or overtime. Each unit of decreased production incurs a cost of $0.3 to cover the benefits of unused employees. The production level during the previous month was 1800 units, and the beginning inventory is 1000 units. Inventory at the end of the fourth month must be at least 1500 units to cover anticipated demand. Formulate a production plan for SC that minimizes the total costs over the next four months
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
Solution:
The Production Planning of the Steel Case:
Demand (units):
Month 1: 2400
Month 2: 2200
Month 3: 2700
Month 4: 2500
Production Cost ($/unit):
Month 1: 74
Month 2: 75
Month 3: 76
Month 4: 76.5
Inventory cost ($/panel):
Month 1: 1.2
Month 2: 1.2
Month 3: 1.2
Month 4: 1.2
Starting Inventory = 1000
Ending Inventory at the end of 4th month = 1500
Starting Production Level = 1800
Cost of changing production level = $0.5/unit (increase)
= $0.3/unit (decrease)
Decision Variables:
Let Pn be the production in the month n.
[tex]I_{n}[/tex] be the inventory at the end of month n.
[tex]I_{o}[/tex] be the initial inventory at the start of month 1.
Objective Function:
The production cost is given below:
74[tex]P_{1}[/tex] + 75[tex]P_{2}[/tex] + 76[tex]P_{3}[/tex] + 76.5[tex]P_{4}[/tex]
And the holding cost is given below:
1.2( [tex]I_{1} + I_{2} + I_{3}[/tex] )
And,
Constraints:
In order to meet the demand, we have the following constraints:
[tex]P_{1}[/tex] + [tex]I_{o}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 2400
[tex]P_{2}[/tex] + [tex]I_{1}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 2200
[tex]P_{3}[/tex] + [tex]I_{2}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 2700
[tex]P_{4}[/tex] + [tex]I_{3}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 2500
Now, considering the inventory level at the end of each month:
[tex]I_{o}[/tex] = 1000
[tex]I_{1}[/tex] = [tex]P_{1}[/tex] - [tex]I_{o}[/tex] - 2400
[tex]I_{2}[/tex] = [tex]P_{2}[/tex] - [tex]I_{1}[/tex] - 2200
[tex]I_{3}[/tex] = [tex]P_{3}[/tex] - [tex]I_{2}[/tex] - 2700
[tex]I_{4}[/tex] = [tex]P_{4}[/tex] - [tex]I_{3}[/tex] - 2500
[tex]I_{4}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 1500
It is given that, at maximum 4000 units can be produced each month
So, we have the following constraints:
[tex]P_{n}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] 4000 for n = 1, 2, 3 ,4
Also,
[tex]P_{n}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 0
[tex]I_{n}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 0

Lucky Strike Mine (LLC) purchased a silver deposit for $1,500,000. It estimated it would extract 500,000 ounces of silver from the deposit. Lucky Strike mined the silver and sold it, reporting gross receipts of $1.8 million, $2.5 million, and $2 million for Years 1 through 3, respectively. During Years 1 through 3, Lucky Strike reported net income (loss) from the silver deposit activity in the amount of ($100,000), $400,000, and $100,000, respectively. In Years 1 through 3, Lucky Strike actually extracted 300,000 ounces of silver as follows: Ounces extracted per year Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 50,000 150,000 100,000 What is Lucky Strike's depletion deduction for Year 2 if the applicable percentage depletion for silver is 15 percent
Answer:
$375,000
Explanation:
depletion rate musts equal the lesser between:
net income = $400,000
or
15% of gross revenues = $2,500,000 x 15% = $375,000
in this case, $375,000 is the smallest amount.
The percentage of depletion is used by extraction companies, e.g. oil & gas companies or mining companies.

Suppose counselors of Mableton sold the equipment for $25,200 on December 31, 2018, after using the equipment for two full years. Assume depreciation 2018 has been recorded. Journalize the sale of equipment, assuming straight-line depreciation was used
Answer:
Dr cash $25,200
Dr accumulated depreciation $13,000
Cr equipment $37,000
Cr profit on disposal $1,2000
Explanation:
The yearly depreciation expense on the equipment is computed thus:
depreciation=(cost-residual value)/useful life
cost=$37000
residual value=$4,500
useful life= 5 years
depreciation=($37000-$4500)/5
depreciation=$6,500
accumulated depreciation for 2 years=$6,500*2=$13,000
Cash proceeds from disposal=$25,200
Upon disposal, we would debit cash with $25,200 as well as accumulated depreciation with $13,000 while the equipment account is credited with the original cost of $37,000
Total debits=$25,200+$13,000=$38,200
total credit=$37,000
profit on disposal=$38,200-$37000=$1,200
Assume Italy and Chad can both produce grain and dates, and that the only limited resource is the farming labor force, meaning that land, water, and all other resources are plentiful in both countries. Each farmer in Italy can produce 10 t of grain or 5 t of dates in a season. Each farmer in Chad can also produce 10 t of grain or 25 t of dates.
1. Which country has the absolute advantage in producing dates?
A. Italy.
B. Chad.
C. Neither.
2. Which country has the absolute advantage in producing grain?
A. Italy.
B. Chad.
C. Neither.
3. Which country has the competitive advantage in producing dates?
A. Italy.
B. Chad.
C. Neither.
4. Which country has the comparative advantage in producing grain?
A. Italy.
B. Chad.
C. Neither.
Answer:
chad
neither
chad
Italy
Explanation:
A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.
The opportunity cost of Italy in producing one unit of grain = 5/10 = 0.5t dates
The opportunity cost of Italy in producing one unit of dates = 10/5 = 2grains
The opportunity cost of Chad in producing one unit of grain = 25/10 = 2.5 dates
The opportunity cost of Chad in producing one unit of dates = 10/25 = 0.4 grains
Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of grains while Chad has a comparative advantage in the production of dates
A country has absolute advantage in the production of a good or service if it produces more quantity of a good when compared to other countries. Chad produces 25t of dates while Italy produces 5t of dates, this shows that Chad has an absolute advantage in the production of dates. Both Italy and Chad produces the same quantity of grains so neither have an absolute advantage in the production of grains.

Which of the following is true about specification ?
a. A specification is defined as the value separating acceptable from unacceptable performance.
b. Specifications should not be set arbitrarily. If you set a specification to loosely, the customer will be dissatisfied or upset with the performance of what you provided, even though it meets the specification.
c. The specification is set to tightly; you will spend more resources than you should to perform within the overly narrow goals.
Answer:
b. Specifications should not be set arbitrarily. If you set a specification to loosely, the customer will be dissatisfied or upset with the performance of what you provided, even though it meets the specification.
Explanation:
Specification is defined as a set of requirements that needs to be met when producing a product. They give a value that seperate this product from others in performance.
Specification should be narrowly defined as this will help effectively meet the customer needs.
When specifications are too loosely defined the product might not meet customer needs.
For example if a developer requires a laptop with high processing power and the company decides to provide a more generic and lower processing power, the target customer will not be satisfied

Each contract is quoted in cents and 1/8ths of a cent per bushel with a contract size of 5,000 bushels.
a. $45.637.50.
b. 50 $541650.00.
c. $449750.00.
d. $297700.50.
e. $2.971.000.
Answer:
c. $449750.00.
Explanation:
1/8 of 10 lots of bushels of 5,000 per lot = 1.25
Therefore, the price quote of 899'4 cents is written as 899'4+1.25 = $8.995
Total value = Wheat(bushels) * Price Quote
Total value = 50,000 * $8.995
Total value = $449,750

Grimaldi Chocolates projects its factory rent to be $8,000 in July when 4,000 pounds of candy are expected to be produced. If rent is a fixed cost, and if production is expected to increase to 6,000 units in August, what is the expected cost of rent in August
Answer:
$8,000
Explanation:
With regards to the above information, the expected cost of rent in August is $8,000. This is because the $8,000 is fixed in total.
We know that fixed costs are those costs that do not vary with the level of output. Invariably, it means they remained the same as activity level or output changes.
Although, production increases to 6,000 units in August from 4,000 candy pounds of candy that are expected to be produced in March, yet, the fixed cost of $8,000 would remain the same whether or not production increases or decreases.

Beginning work in process, 12,000 units, 60% completed $62,400
From Department A, 55,000 units started this period
Direct materials added 115,500
Direct labor incurred 384,916
Factory overhead incurred 138,000
During March, all direct materials were transferred from Department A, the units in process at March 1 were completed, and of the 55,000 units entering the department, all were completed except 6,000 units that were 70% completed. Inventories are costed by the first-in, first-out method.
Required:
Prepare a cost of production report for March.
Solution :
Particulars Direct materials Conversions
Cost per equivalent unit
Total costs for month March in Department B 115500 522915
Total equivalent units 55000 58000
Cost per equivalent unit 2.10 9.0158
So, total conversion cost for March in the Department B
= 384915 + 138000
= $ 522915
Costs charged to production:
Direct Materials Conversion Total cost
Costs costs
Inventory in process, March 1 62400
Cost incurred in March 638415
Total costs accounted by the department 700815
Therefore, the cost incurred in March = 115500 + 384915 + 138000
= $ 638415

For most of these entries we recognize expenses and a corresponding decrease in assets or increase in liabilities.
As for revenue previously unearned, we have to recognize the revenue portion now earned.
Return to questionItem 4 Required information Skip to question Retained earnings at the beginning of the period was $300. During the period, Kilgore Company earned revenue of $1,100 and incurred expenses of $400. Assuming dividends paid to stockholders were $200, the ending balance in retained earnings must have been:
Answer:
$800
Explanation:
The first task here is to determine the amount of net income recognized in the year which is the earned revenue minus incurred expenses as shown thus:
net income=earned revenue-incurred expenses
earned revenue= $1,100
incurred expenses=$400
net income=$1,100-$400=$700
retained earnings for the period=net income-dividends paid
dividends paid=$200
retained earnings for the period=$700-$200=$500
ending balance of retained earnings=beginning retained earnings+retained earnings for the period
beginning retained earnings=$300
ending balance of retained earnings=$300+$500=$800
A local partnership is liquidating and has only two assets (cash of $10,000 and land with a cost of $35,000). All partnership liabilities have been paid. All partners are personally insolvent. The partners have capital balances and share profits and losses as follows. Brown, capital (40%) $ 25,000 Fish, capital (30%) 15,000 Stone, capital (30%) 5,000 If the land is sold for $25,000, how much cash does each partner receive in a final settlement
Answer:
The amount of cash that each partner receives in a final settlement is as follows:
Brown = $14,000
Fish = $10,500
Stone = $10,500
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Partnership assets:
Cash = $10,000
Land (cost) = $35,000
Capital balances and sharing of profits and losses:
Brown, capital (40%) $ 25,000
Fish, capital (30%) 15,000
Stone, capital (30%) 5,000
Cash realized from land = $25,000
Total cash available for distribution = $35,000 ($10,000 + $25,000)
Distribution:
Brown (40%) = $14,000 (40% of $35,000)
Fish (30%) = $10,500 (30% of $35,000)
Stone (30%) = $10,500 (30% of $35,000)
Total $35,000
b) When a partnership is liquidated, the partners share the net assets of the partnership in their profit and loss sharing ratios. If the net assets are negative, they also share the balance in their profit and loss sharing ratios and make the required contributions.
The board of directors of a corporation:________.
a) Are elected by the corporate registrar.
b) Are responsible for day-to-day operations of the business.
c) Do not have the power to bind the corporation to contracts, due to lack of mutual agency.
d) May not also be executive officers of the corporation, due to the separate entity principle.
e) Are responsible for and have final authority for managing corporate activities.
Answer:
e) Are responsible for and have final authority for managing corporate activities.
Explanation:
A corporation can be defined as a corporate organization that has facilities and owns or controls assets used for the production of goods and services in at least one country other than its headquarter (home office) located in its home country.
This ultimately implies that, a corporation is a corporate organization that owns or controls its business in two or more countries.
Some examples of multinational firms are Ap-ple, Volkswagen, Go-ogle, Shoprite, Nestlé, Accenture, Shell BP, Chevron etc.
An owner of a corporation is known as a stockholder and he or she can decide to sell the corporation through stocks or shares as a publicly traded firm.
Basically, the board of directors who are representing the stockholders of a corporation are responsible for and have final authority for managing corporate activities because they are typically considered to be a governing body saddled with oversight functions and responsibilities.
