The business pays $2,000 in cash to the landlord for office space rent. a) Expenses reduce by $2,000 b) Equity remains unchanged c) Equity reduces by $2,000 d) Assets increase by $2,000 e) Liabilities reduce by $2,000
Answer: c) Equity reduces by $2,000
Explanation:
Expenses have the effect of reducing the income that the company would have made. That income is classified under equity as retained earnings so when expenses like office rent reduce the income, they are reducing the company's equity as well.
This is why expenses are debited when they increase because they reduce the equity accounts which are credited when they increase.
Baldwin Printing Company uses a job order costing system and applies overhead based on machine hours. A total of 150,000 machine hours have been budgeted for the year. During the year, an order for 1,000 units was completed and incurred the following:"Direct material costs $1,000Direct labor costs 1,500Actual overhead 1,980Machine hours 450The accountant calculated the inventory cost of this order to be $4.30 per unit. The annual budgeted overhead in dollars was;__________a) $577,500b) $600,000c) $645,000d) $660,000
Answer:
total estimated overhead costs for the period= $600,000
Explanation:
First, we need to determine the allocated overhead for the order:
Total cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead
4,300= 1,000 + 1,500 + allocated overhead
allocated overhead= 4,300 - 1,000 - 1,500
allocated overhead= 1,800
Now, we can determine the allocation rate:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
1,800= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate*450
1,800/450= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $4 per machine hour
Finally, the budgeted manufacturing overhead:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
4= total estimated overhead costs for the period/150,000
$600,000= total estimated overhead costs for the period

Assume that for John Paxton, a soybean producer from Iowa, the only source of farm income is from the production of soybeans. Paxton produced 100,000 bushels of soybeans in 2014, receiving $8 per bushel. Assuming this producer had pro- duction expenses of $300,000, and assuming the CPI for 2014 was 2.00, his real farm income for 2014 was:_______ a. $250,000.b. $500,000. c. $800,000. d. can't tell; insufficient information
Answer:
A. $250,000
Explanation:
Real farm income can be calculated by dividing Nominal income by CPI for calculation data is given in the question.
DATA
Price per bushel = $8
units produced in 2014 = 100,000
Expense = 300,000
CPI = 2
Solution
Nominal income in 2014 = 8x100,000
Nominal income in 2014 = $800,000
Farm income = nominal income - expenses
Farm income = 800,000 - 300,000
Farm income = $500,000
real income = nominal income / CPI
real income = 500,000/2
real income = $250,000

Fuel economy when purchasing new trucks for the delivery fleet g. The cost of production when determining whether to continue to manufacture the screen for a smartphone or to purchase it from an outside supplier h. The cost of land when determining where to build a new call center i. The average cost of vehicle operation when purchasing a new delivery van j. Real estate property tax rates when selecting the location for a new order processing center
Answer:
a. The purchase price of the old computer when replacing it with a new computer with improved features - Irrelevant cost
Sunk costs are considered irrelevant and the price of the old computer is a sunk cost as it has already been incurred.
b. The cost of renovations when deciding whether to build a new office building or to renovate the existing office building - Relevant
The cost of renovations will help the company decide which alternative is cheaper between building a new office or renovating.
c. The original cost of the current stove when selecting a new, more efficient stove for a restaurant. - Irrelevant
Like the first, this is a sunk cost so it is irrelevant.
d. Local tax incentives when selecting the location of a new office complex for a company’s headquarters. - Relevant
Local tax incentives could reduce cost of operation so is relevant when choosing headquarter location.
e. The fair market value (trade-in value) of the existing forklift when deciding whether to replace it with a new, more efficient model. - Relevant
The existing machine can be traded in for part of the cost of a new one using its market value to reduce the cost of the new one. It is relevant.
f. Fuel economy when purchasing new trucks for the delivery fleet. - Relevant.
Higher fuel economy can reduce cost of transportation so is a relevant cost.
g. The cost of production when determining whether to continue to manufacture the screen for a smartphone or to purchase it from an outside supplier. - Relevant.
This is a relevant cost because the it will help the company decide the cheaper alternative.
h. The cost of land when determining where to build a new call center. - Relevant.
Some land will be in areas that will have higher real estate prices. Your preferred cost of land will help determine which areas to look for locations in.
i. The average cost of vehicle operation when purchasing a new delivery van. - Relevant.
If this cost is too high it will increase expenses. It is a relevant cost to note for cost maximisation.
j. Real estate property tax rates when selecting the location for a new order processing center. - Relevant
Real estate taxes need to be known so that cost estimation can be made on the order processing center.

Answer:
Elaine's Inflatables
The effects of the business transactions on the accounting equation for Elaine’s Inflatable.
a. Increase asset,(Cash); Increase Equity (Common Stock) by $10,000
b. Increase asset, (Equipment); Increase Liabilities (Accounts Payable) $5,000
c. Increase asset, (Supplies); Decrease asset, (Cash) $400
d. Increase asset, (Cash); Increase Equity (Retained Earnings) $2,500
e. Decrease asset, (Cash); Decrease Equity (Retained Earnings) $400
f. Decrease asset, (Cash); Decrease Equity (Retained Earnings) $1,000
g. Increase asset, (Accounts Receivable); Increase Equity (Retained Earnings) $1,000
h. Decrease asset, (Cash); Decrease Equity (Retained Earnings) $1,000
i. Increase Liabilities (Utilities Payable); Decrease Equity (Retained Earnings) $250
Explanation:
To explain the accounting equation in action, Elaine's Inflatable business transactions will always show the effects on the accounting equation. This equation states that Assets are always equal to Liabilities Plus Equity with every given transaction. This equation implies that two or more accounts are impacted by each transaction and the effect is always to keep the accounting equation in balance. For example, the payment of rent of $1,000 decreases the asset (Cash) and decreases the equity (Retained Earnings) side of the accounting equation by the same amount.
Use future value and present value calculations to determine the following: (a) The future value of a $660 savings deposit after eight years at an annual interest rate of 3 percent. Use Exhibit 1-A. (Round time value factor to 3 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.) (b) The future value of saving $1,660 a year for five years at an annual interest rate of 6 percent. Use Exhibit 1-B. (Round time value factor to 3 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.) (c) The present value of a $2,310 savings account that will earn 3 percent interest for four years. Use Exhibit 1-C. (Round time value factor to 3 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a. $836.07
b. $9,357.57
c. $8586.50
Explanation:
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
$660(1.03)^8 = $836.07
b. The formula for calculating future value of an annuity = A (B / r)
B = [(1 + r)^n] - 1
(1.06)^5 - 1 = 0.338226
( 0.338226 / 0.06) x $1,660 = $9,357.57
c. Present value can be found using a financial calculator
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 4 = $2310
i = 3%
present value = $8586.50
To find the NV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Business Scenario: Sole proprietorship
Explanation:
The sole proprietor is the sole proprietor of the business. He earns losses only from trade and only profits from trade. There is no difference between business and owner. It is very easy to create and cancel such a business because the government is not involved in it.A newly issued bond pays its coupons once annually. Its coupon rate is 5%, its maturity is 20 years, and its yield to maturity is 8%. a. Find the holding-period return for a 1-year investment period if the bond is selling at a yield to maturity of 7% by the end of the year.
Answer:
Holding Period return 19.54%
Explanation:
We purchase to get a yield of 8%
so we sovle for the present value of the bond (market value) which is the amount at which we adquire the bond:
PV of the coupon payment:
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
C ($1,000 x 5%) 50.000
time 20 years
rate 0.08
[tex]50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.08)^{-20} }{0.08} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $490.9074
Pv of maturity:
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 1,000.00
time 20.00
rate 0.08
[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.08)^{20} } = PV[/tex]
PV 214.55
PV c $490.9074
PV m $214.5482
Total $705.4556
Then, we solve for the price that 7% YTM after a year:
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
C 50.000
time 19
rate 0.07
[tex]50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-19} }{0.07} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $516.7798
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 1,000.00
time 19.00
rate 0.07
[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.07)^{19} } = PV[/tex]
PV 276.51
PV c $516.7798
PV m $276.5083
Total $793.2881
Now we compare to get hte capital gain:
year-end less beginning value
$793.29 - $705.46 = $87.83
The coupon is also a return:
$1,000 x 5% = $50
Total return $137.83
Investment $705.46
Holding-period return
137.83/705.46 = 0,195376 = 19.54%
Telecommunications equipment manufacturers in the USA sell their products to people who live in Canada. Is Canada an export?
Answer:
FALSE
Explanation:
NO Canada is NOT an export because the Telecommunications equipment was produced in USA and not in CANADA which means that the USA is an export because USA manufactured or produced the TELECOMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT which was then sold to another country which is Canada, Based on this we can defined EXPORT as a trade that occur between two countries in which a country produced good or service in which such goods or service produced by this country is been sold to another country just as in the case of USA which produced Telecommunications equipment which was then sold to Canada which means that the USA which is the manufacturer of the Telecommunications equipment sold to Canada is the EXPORT.
Example of TELECOMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT include the following;
Routers,Telecommunication towers, Switches among other.
Training and development are roles filled by human resource specialists true or false

Mitchell Inc. issued 40, 6%, $1,000 bonds on January 1, 2020. The bonds pay cash interest semiannually each July 1, and December 31, and were issued to yield 7%. Debt issuance costs were $800. The bonds mature December 31, 2022, and the company uses the effective interest method to amortize bond discounts and debt issuance costs.Required a. Determine the selling price of the bonds. Round amount to the nearest whole dollar. b. Prepare an amortization schedule for the full bond term. c. Prepare journal entries on the following dates. 1. January 1, 2020, bond issuance. 2. June 30, 2020, interest payment. 3. December 31, 2020, interest payment.
Answer:
a. Determine the selling price of the bonds.
we can use the approximate yield to maturity formula to determine the price of the bonds:
0.035 = {30 + [(1,000 - MV) / 5]} / [(1,000 + MV) / 2]
0.035 x [(1,000 + MV) / 2] = 30 + [(1,000 - MV) / 5]
0.035 x (500 + 0.5MV) = 30 + 200 - 0.2MV
17.5 + 0.0175MV = 230 - 0.2MV
0.2175MV = 212.5
MV = 212.5 / 0.2175 = $977
b. Prepare an amortization schedule for the full bond term.
I used an excel spreadsheet because there is not enough room here
c. Prepare journal entries on the following dates.
1. January 1, 2020, bond issuance.
Dr Cash 38,280
Dr Credit issuance cost 800
Dr Discount on bonds payable 920
Cr Bonds payable 40,000
2. June 30, 2020, interest payment.
Dr Interest expense 1,368
Dr Debt issue expense 146
Cr Cash 1,200
Cr Discount on bonds payable 168
Cr Credit issuance cost 146
[($40,000 - $920) x 3.5%] - $1,200 = $168
($168 / $920) x $800 = $146
3. December 31, 2020, interest payment.
Dr Interest expense 1,374
Dr Debt issue expense 151
Cr Cash 1,200
Cr Discount on bonds payable 174
Cr Credit issuance cost 151
[($40,000 - $752) x 3.5%] - $1,200 = $174
($174 / $920) x $800 = $151

One billion hours of labor are available for making products in Mandovia, and 2 billion hours of labor are available for making products in Ducennia. In a no-trade world, let’s assume that half the labor in each country gets used to make each product. Calculate the output of rotids and taurons, rounding to one decimal place.
Answer:
Mandovia
Rotid
Mandovia total labor hours is 1 billion which is to be divided equally to make one product so 500 million hours per product. It takes 50 hours to make one rotid so with 500 million;
= 500,000,000/50
= 10,000,000 rotids
Taurons
= 500,000,000/100
= 5,000,000 taurons
Ducennia
Rotids
Ducennia total labor hours is 2 billion which is to be divided equally to make one product so 1 billion hours per product. It takes 150 hours to make one rotid so with 1 billion hours will be;
= 1,000,000,000/150
= 6,666,666.7
= 6.7 million rotids
Taurons
= 1,000,000,000/20
= 50,000,000 taurons

Which of the following indicates a website is NOT secure?
Answer:
a) a lock icon is not displayed in the address bar
(d) the url of the website begins with http
Explanation:
The lock item in the address bar is proof that the communication between your computer and the website is secure because it indicates that the communication is encrypted. If it is not there therefore, the communication is not secure.
Websites with Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) are secured as the communication is encrypted by the use of Transport Layer Security unlike websites with the basic HTTP. Visits to such sites are therefore riskier as there is a higher chance of information theft.
The website is not secure when its not displaying a lock, missing an updated SSL and does start with an HTTP instead of HTTPS.
There are many methods of checking that a website is secure is not correct by the use of various software tools like domain blocker, website checker etc.Hence the option D is correct that is the URL of the website begins with HTTP.

Bell Company, a manufacturer of audio systems, started its production in October 2017. For the preceding 3 years, Bell had been a retailer of audio systems. After a thorough survey of audio system markets, Bell decided to turn its retail store into an audio equipment factory. Raw materials cost for an audio system will total $77 per unit. Workers on the production lines are on average paid $14 per hour. An audio system usually takes 6 hours to complete. In addition, the rent on the equipment used to assemble audio systems amounts to $5,100 per month. Indirect materials cost $6 per system. A supervisor was hired to oversee production; her monthly salary is $3,540. Factory janitorial costs are $1,420 monthly. Advertising costs for the audio system will be $8,850 per month. The factory building depreciation expense is $6,720 per year. Property taxes on the factory building will be $8,400 per year. Assuming that Bell manufactures, on average, 1,450 audio systems per month, identify and itemize the product costs, direct materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead, and period costs.
Answer:
product costs per month
direct materials = $77 x 1,450 = $111,650 direct labor = $14 x 6 x 1,450 = $121,800manufacturing overhead = $5,100 + ($6 x 1,450) + $3,540 + $1,420 + ($6,720/12) + ($8,400/12) = $20,020total product costs per month = $253,470period costs
advertising = $8,850Product costs are all the costs that a company incurs in manufacturing a certain product, in this case the audio systems. Product costs include direct materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Period costs are all other expenses incurred by the company that are not related to the production process.

You can buy property today for $2.1 million and sell it in 6 years for $3.1 million. A. If the interest rate is 11%, what is the present value of the sales price?
B. What is the present value of the future cash flows, if you also could earn $110,000 per year rent on the property?
Answer:
Present value of sales price = 465,395.16
Present Value of future cash flow= 465,359.16
Explanation:
The present value of a sum expected in the future is the worth today given an opportunity cost interest rate. In another words ,it is amount receivable today that would make the investor to be indifferent between the amount receivable today and the future sum.
The present value of a lump sum can be worked out as follows:
PV = FV × (1+r)^(-n)
Present Value of sales price= 3.1 × 1.11^(-6) =1.65739
Present Value=165,738.65
Present Value of an annuity of 110,000 for 6 years:
PV = A × 1- ( (1+r)^(-n))/r
PV = 110,000× (1-1.11^(-6))/0.11= 465,359.16
PV = 465,359.16
On January 1, 2015, East Lansing, Inc, issues $2,000,000 of 10 percent, 5-year bonds that pay interest of $100,000 semiannually. The market rate is 8 percent at the time of issuance. The issue price of the bonds is:____a. $1,852.810 b. $1888,970 c. $1.999.970 d. $2,162.290
Answer:
The answer is option D
Explanation:
The bond can be issued at par, at a discount or at a premium depending on the coupon rate and the market interest. The price of the bond which pays semi annual coupon can be calculated using the formula of bond price. The formula to calculate the price of the bond is attached.
First we need to determine the semi annual coupon payment, periods and YTM.
Semi annual coupon payments = 2000000 * 0.1 * 6/12 = 100000
Semi annual periods = 5 * 2 = 10
Semi annual YTM = 0.08 * 6/12 = 0.04
Bond Price = 100000 * [(1 - (1+0.04)^-10) / 0.04] + 2000000 / (1+0.04)^10
Bond Price = $2162217.916
The price of the bond is thus $2162290 approx. The difference in answers is due to rounding off.
