Answer:
Number of producers
Prices of other goods
Technology
Resource prices
Explanation:
Supply is the total amount of goods and services available to consumers in a market
The higher the number of producers, the higher the number of goods produced and the higher the supply all things being equal. The reverse would be the case if the number of producers fall.
If the price of other good increases, it would be more profitable to produce the other goods. As a result, the number of producers available to good would reduce.
Technological progress that reduces cost of production and makes production more efficient, would lead to an increase in supply.
If the price of inputs increases, it becomes more expensive to produce the good and as a result, supply would fall.
Baker Industries’ net income is $24,000, its interest expense is $6,000, and its tax rate is 25%. Its notes payable equals $24,000, long-term debt equals $75,000, and common equity equals $250,000. The firm finances with only debt and common equity, so it has no preferred stock. What are the firm’s ROE and ROIC? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.
Answer:
ROE = 9.6% , ROIC = 8.17%
Explanation:
1) ROE = Net Income / Common Equity
ROE = $24,000 / $250,000
ROE = 0.096
ROE = 9.6%
2) ROIC = [EBIT * (1-tax rate)] / Total Invested capital
EBT = Net income *100 / (100% - T)
EBT = $24,000 * 100% / 75%
EBT = $24,000 * 1.3333
EBT = $31,999
EBIT = EBT + interest = $31,999 + $6,000
EBIT = $37,999
Invested capital =Notes payable + Long term Debt + Common stock
Invested capital = $24,000 + $75,000 + $250,000
Invested capital = $349,000
ROIC = [$37,999 * (1 - 0.25)] / $349,000
ROIC = [$37,999 * 0.75] / $349,000
ROIC = $28,499.25 / $349,000
ROIC = 0.081660
ROIC = 8.17%
On the budgeted balance sheet,the number for notes payable will come from the ________.
A) operating budget
B) schedule of cash receipts
C) cash budget
D) cost of goods sold budget
Answer:
B) schedule of cash receipts
Explanation:
Personally, I do not consider this option to be 100% correct since it is incomplete. The correct answer is: debt service budget.
When you are preparing a budgeted balance sheet, you might get some information about receiving cash by issuing notes payables, but notes payables can include other transactions besides cash loans. E.g. You might finance the purchase of equipment by issuing a promissory note. You could also refinance outstanding credits from suppliers with notes payables. And many others, and none is related to cash receipts.

________is due to the inability to "successfully" adapt in the new country.
Answer:
Acculturative stress
Explanation:
Acculturation can be defined as the experiences and changes, which may be psychological, social or cultural that individuals and group of people undergo when they come into contact or are trying to adapt with a different culture in a society.
Hence, acculturation involves the process of transferring customs, beliefs and values from a cultural group to another.
This ultimately implies that, acculturative stress is due to the inability to "successfully" adapt in the new country. For instance, an African immigrant who migrates to the United States of America may experience a significant level of stressors in adapting to the cultural values, customs and beliefs of the people living in the particular state or region.
The following information was taken from the accounting records of Light Tool Corporation. Work in process inventory, beginning of the year $ 50,000 Cost of direct materials used 260,000 Direct labor cost applied to production 135,000 Cost of finished goods manufactured 897,750 Overhead assigned to production was $500,000. Compute the amount of the work in process inventory on hand at year-end.
Answer:
47,250
Explanation:
The manufacturing costs in the year is the sum of work in process inventory, at the beginning of the year, the cost of direct materials, the direct cost of labor and the overhead assigned to production as computed thus:
manufacturing costs=50,000+260,000+135,000+500,000
manufacturing costs=945,000
amount of the work in process inventory on hand at year-end=manufacturing costs-cost of finished goods manufactured
amount of the work in process inventory on hand at year-end=945,000-897,750= 47,250
Peta Corporation and its subsidiary reported consolidated net income of $320,000 for the year ended December 31, 20X8. Peta owns 80 percent of the common shares of its subsidiary, acquired at book value. Noncontrolling interest was assigned income of $30,000 in the consolidated income statement for 20X8. What is the amount of separate operating income reported by Peta for the year
Answer: $170,000
Explanation:
Based on the information provided in the question, the amount of separate operating income that will be reported by Peta for the year goes thus:
The total income of subsidiary is calculated as:
= [30000/(100 - 80)] × 100
= (30000/20) × 100
= 1500 × 100
= 150000
Therefore, the operating income of Peta will be:
= Consolidated income - the total Subsidiary income
= $320000 - $150000
= $170000

1. Sid bought a new $1,500,000 seven-year class asset on August 2, 2020. On December 2, 2020, he purchased $900,000 of used five-year class assets. If Sid elects Sec. 179 and does not take additional first-year depreciation, what is the maximum cost recovery deduction for these purchases for 2020
Answer:
Total cost recovery deduction = 1251450
Explanation:
Given the seven-year class asset bought by the Sid = $1500000
On 2nd December the five-year class asset bought = $900000
Now we have to find the cost recovery deduction for 2020.
900000/(900000 + 1500000) = 37.5% Thus, use half-year convention and avoid mid quarter
1500000 – 1,000,000 (Sec 179 limit) = 500000
500000 x 14.29% = 71450
900,000 x 20% = 180,000
1,000,000 + 71450 + 180,000
Cost recovery for 7 year asset = 1,071450
Cost recovery 5 year asset = 180000
Total cost recovery deduction = 1251450

Jim Company bought a machine for $36,000 with an estimated life of 5 years. The residual value of the machine is $6,000. This machine is expected to produce 120,000 units. In year 1, it produced 19,000 units, and in year 2, 38,000 units. Assuming the units-of-production method, calculate the first 2 years’ depreciation.
Answer:
Year 1 $4,750
Year 2 $9,500
Explanation:
Calculation for the first 2 years' depreciation
Since we were told that in year 1 it produced 19,000 units which means that the depreciation will be calculated as :
Year 1 Depreciation =19,000 units÷4 years
Year 1 Depreciation=$4,750
Calculation for Year 2 Depreciation
Since we were told that in year 2, 38,000 units was produce which means that the Depreciation will be calculated as :
Year 2 Depreciation =19,000 units÷2 years
Year 2 Depreciation =$9,500
Therefore Year 1 depreciation will be $4,750 while Year 2 depreciation will be $9,500.

How does the supply chain theory work with the distribution function?
Answer:
In simple words, Distribution can be characterised as a step-by - step process for transferring goods from manufacturers to end users. Distribution happens from the preceding point at any level of the supply process, including vendors, distributors or consumers.
Input materials are transported from producers to factories, and finished products are passed from factories to consumers. Distribution influences the quality of the supply chains and the consumer's service. In India, cement prices are around 30% of that same cost of manufacturing and selling cement.

The company's contribution margin ratio is closest to:_______.
(A) 49.9%
(B) 81.0%
(C) 30.9%
(D) 74.8%
Answer:
(C) 30.9%
Explanation:
Calculation for the company's contribution margin ratio
First step is to find the Contribution margin using this formula
Contribution margin = Sales - Variable expenses
Let plug in the formula
Contribution margin = $1,910,000-$1,319,000
Contribution margin = $591,000
Second step is to calculate for the Contribution margin ratio using this formula
Contribution margin ratio= Contribution margin ÷ Sales
Let plug in the formula
Contribution margin ratio = $591,000 ÷ $1,910,000
Contribution margin ratio = 0.309×100
Contribution margin ratio=30.9%
Calculation for Total Variable expenses
Variable manufacturing expense $956,000
Variable selling and administrative expense $363,000
Total $1,319,000
Therefore the Contribution margin ratio will be 30.9%
The company's contribution margin ratio is closest to 30.9%. A company's contribution margin ratio (CM ratio) is determined by dividing revenue by revenue less all variable costs. It stands for the small gain from manufacturing an extra unit. Thus, option C is correct.
The company's contribution margin ratio is calculated as:
Sales minus variable costs equal contribution margin.
formula:
Margin of contribution = $1,910,000 - $1,319,000
Margin of contribution = $591,000
The Contribution margin ratio is calculated in the following step using this formula.
Sales Contribution Margin to Calculate Contribution Margin Ratio
formula:
The ratio of contribution: $591,000 divided by $1,910,000
Contribution margin ratio: 0.309 to one hundred.
The ratio of contribution is 30.9%
Total Variable Expense Calculation
$956,000 in variable manufacturing costs
$363,00 in variable marketing and administrative costs
Total $1,319,000
The Contribution Margin Ratio will thus be 30.9%.
Revenue is less variable costs equal contribution margin. The formula for calculating the contribution margin ratio is (Revenue - Variable Costs) / Revenue.
The contribution margin may not always be a reliable indicator of economic gain. There may be major fixed costs that businesses must take into account. To ascertain how many units must be sold at what price for a business to break even, a break-even analysis may be necessary.

On January 2, 20X1, Meister Company issues $200,000 of 6% bonds. Interest of $6,000 is payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds mature in 5 years. The market yield for bonds of similar risk and maturity is 7%. Utilizing the time value of money tables in your book, calculate the issue price of the bonds (round the result to whole dollars).
Answer:
January 2, 20x1, bonds issues at a discount
Dr Cash 191,600
Dr Discount on bonds payable 8,400
Cr Bonds payable 200,000
Explanation:
the bonds' current market value = PV of face value + PV of coupon payments
The bond has a 6 percent coupon rate, matures in 5 years (10 semiannual periods), and the market rate is 7%:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3.5%)¹⁰ = $708.92
PV of coupon payments = 30 x 8.31661 (PV annuity factor, 3.5%, 10 periods) = $249.50
bond's market value = $958.42 ≈ $958 x 200 bonds = $191,600

During the current year, Elk Company incurred the following direct labor costs: January $40,000 and February $60,000. Elk uses a predetermined overhead rate of 120% of direct labor cost. Estimated overhead for the 2 months, respectively, totaled $39,000 and $71,400. Actual overhead for the 2 months, respectively, totaled $50,000 and $67,000. Was overhead under- or overapplied during January and by how much?
Answer:
January Overheads are under-applied by $2,000.
Explanation:
When,
Actual overheads > Applied overheads we say overheads are under-applied.
Actual overheads < Applied overheads we say overheads are over-applied.
Where,
Applied overheads = Predetermined overhead rate × Actual Activity
Therefore,
Applied overheads (January) = 120% × $40,000
= $48,000
Actual overheads (January) = $50,000.
Conclusion
It can be seen that from the above : Actual overheads : $50,000 > Applied overhead : $48,000, therefore overheads were under-applied.
Amount of under-applied overheads = $50,000 - $48,000
= $2,000

Answer: $12,830.91
Explanation:
Year 0
Net Cash = Revenue - Expenses - Tax
Tax = (Revenue - Deductible expenses) * tax rate
= ( 10,000 - 3,400) * 0.35
= $2,310
Net Cash = 10,000 - 3,400 - 800 - 2,310
= $3,490
Present Value is the same as this is Year 0.
Year 1
Tax = (Revenue - Deductible expenses) * tax rate
= ( 12,500 - 5,000) * 0.35
= $2,625
Net Cash = 12,500 - 5,000 - 1,100 - 2,625
= $3,775
Present Value is;
= 3,775 / ( 1 + 10%)
= $3,431.82
Year 2
Tax = (Revenue - Deductible expenses) * tax rate
= ( 18,000 - 7,000) * 0.35
= $3,850
Net Cash = 18,000 - 7,000 - 0 - 3,850
= $7,150
Present Value is;
= 7,150 / ( 1 + 10%) ^ 2
= $5,909.09
Net Present Value = PV0 + PV1 + PV2
= 3,490 + 3,431.82 + 5,909.09
= $12,830.91

C. Organizational change is more likely to succeed if there is a great deal of inconsistency between individual values and organizational values.
D. Organizations are less likely to accomplish corporate goals when employees perceive an inconsistency between the espoused values of the organization and their own personal characteristics.
Answer:
D. Organizations are less likely to accomplish corporate goals when employees perceive an inconsistency between the espoused values of the organization and their own personal characteristics.
Explanation:
When employees are not aligned or do not agree with company values such that their individual/personal values contradict that of the company, there is high likelihood that the company would be to reach it's company goals. This is because employees have to synchronize and internalize company values with theirs in order to move to achieve company goals. Example of some of the values of a company go against the moral values of some of the employees, there is an inconsistency here that could lead to less motivation from employees in achieving company goals
Organizations are less likely to accomplish corporate goals when employees perceive an inconsistency between the espoused values of the organization and their own personal characteristics. Option (d) is correct.
There is a strong possibility that the firm won't achieve its objectives if employees are not in line with or disagree with the company's principles to the extent that their personal and individual beliefs do. This is due to the fact that in order to proceed toward achieving company goals, personnel must synchronize and internalize company values with their own.
