Answer: D. Square feet of floor space
Explanation:
The building maintenance cost should be based on a measure that takes into account the size of the building so that the maintenance cost can be apportioned based on how much space needs to be maintained.
The best measure to do so would therefore be the square feet of floor space. If maintenance cost is assigned per square feet, it would take into account how much expenses are being incurred to maintain the entire size of the building.
For a certain item, the cost-minimizing order quantity obtained with the basic EOQ model is 350 units, and the total annual inventory (holding and order) cost is $1050. What is the inventory holding cost per unit per year for this item
Answer: $3 per unit per year
Explanation:
Inventory holding cost per unit for this item is:
= Total Annual inventory carrying cost / Average inventory
Total Annual inventory carrying cost = Total annual inventory / 2
= 1,050 / 2
= $525
Average inventory = EOQ / 2
= 350 / 2
= 175 units
Inventory holding cost per unit = 525 / 175
= $3 per unit
Lemon company purchased 100 units for $20 each on January 31. It purchased 200 units for $30 each on February 28. It sold 200 units for $50 each from March 1 through December 31. If the company uses the first-in, first-out inventory costing method, what is the amount of Cost of Goods Sold on the income statement for the year ending December 31?
A. $6,350.
B. $4,350.
C. $1,600.
D. $4,750.
Answer:
Find detailed explanations below
Explanation:
Under the first-in-first-out inventory valuation method, the earlier stocks are sold first and the latest stocks remain in inventory.
In essence, the 200 units sold comprise of 100 units purchased on January 31 at $20 each and 100 units from purchases made on February 28 at $30 each as computed below
Cost of goods sold=(100*$20)+(100*$30)
Cost of goods sold=$5,000(the options are wrong)
The correct question for the options is provided below:
A company purchased 80 units for $20 each on January 31. It purchased 190 units for $25 each on February 28. It sold 190 units for $80 each from March 1 through December 31.

(Assume that the company uses a perpetual inventory system.)
A.
$6,350
B.
$4,350
C.
$1,600
D.
$4,750
Cost of goods sold=(80*$20)+(110*$25)

How much increase in net worth (equity) would a market basis balance sheet show over a cost basis if Land was purchased for $1,000,000, is currently valued at $5,500,000 and capital gains taxes are 10%
Answer: $4,050,000
Explanation:
Increase in net worth shows the after tax gain that the person got after the land in question increased in value.
= (Current value - Purchase price) * ( 1 - tax rate)
= (5,500,000 - 1,000,000) * (1 - 10%)
= 4,500,000 * 0.90
= $4,050,000

You purchased an automobile a year ago for $10,000. Its current market price is $6,000, and the expected market value one year from now is $4,000. If the interest rate is 10 percent, how much will it cost you to keep the car for an additional year (over and above operation and maintenance costs)
Answer: $2600
Explanation:
From the information given, the cost price of the automobile is $10000 but the current market price is $6000. If the automobile is old now for $6000 and the money is kept in a bank for.one year at an interest rate of 10%, then the interest gotten on it will be:
= $6000 × 10% × 1
= $600
In a situation whereby the automobile is sold the following year, then the price will be $4,000 and I will get $4,000. Therefore, the cost for keeping the car for an additional year will then be:
= (Current price - Future price) + Interest amount
= ($6,000 - $4,000) + $600
= $2,600.

For 2020, Ms. Deming earned wages totaling $225,000.
Required:
1. Calculate any 0.9 percent additional Medicare tax owed, assuming that Ms. Deming is single.
2. Calculate any 0.9 percent additional Medicare tax owed, assuming that Ms. Deming files a joint return with her husband who earned $100,000 of wages for 2019.
Answer:
Additional Medicare is charged on the wages that are higher than $200,000.
1. Medicare owed assuming Ms. Deming is single:
= (225,000 - 200,000) * 0.9%
= 25,000 * 0.9%
= $225
2. Medicare owed assuming Ms. Deming files a joint return with her husband.
When filed together, their wages would be considered jointly.
= ( (100,000 + 225,000) - 200,000) * 0.9%
= 125,000 * 0.9%
= $1,125
Recently, Shandra purchased 5 movie DVDs and 12 three ring binders. What if the price of DVDs rose by $3 and the price of three ring binders declined by $2. With Shandra’s income unchanged and prices for other goods remaining the same, what actions would Shandra most likely take?
Answer:
1. She'll purchase less quantity of movie DVDs
2. She'll purchase more quantity of three-ring binders
Explanation:
INITIAL CASE:
Purchase: 5 DVDs and 12 Binders
Price of DVDs = x Price of Binders = y
NEW CASE:
Price of DVDs = $(x + 3) Price of Binders = $(y - 2)
Shandra's income is unchanged - it doesn't increase or fall in this period.
Prices of "other goods" is also constant - hence the decisions Shandra will make concerning quantity to purchase of DVDs & Binders, will solely be based on the new prices of the two items/commodities.
This clears the "ceteris paribus" assumption of the law of demand! All other things - income & prices of other goods - are already determined to be equal or constant.
In this case, the consumer, Shandra will purchase more of the good whose price has fallen and less of the good whose price has risen. Hence, the actions that Shandra would take are:
1. She'll purchase less quantity of movie DVDs
2. She'll purchase more quantity of three-ring binders

An overhead variance report includes which of the followings: _________
a. Variable and fixed flexible budget costs
b. Variable and fixed actual results
c. Variable and fixed sales results
d. Variable and fixed variances
Answer: a. Variable and fixed flexible budget costs
Explanation:
An overhead variance report shows the difference between the overhead that was actually incurred to either produce or sell vs the overhead that was budgeted.
Overhead can either be fixed or variable so an overhead report will include both fixed and variable budgeted costs which will then be compared to fixed and variable actual overhead costs.
acc 430 Firm B, a calendar year, cash basis taxpayer, leases lawn and garden equipment. During December, it received the following cash payments. To what extent does each payment represent current taxable income to Firm B
Answer: See explanation

a. Even though firm B received a cash of $522, only $22 which is the interest will be taxable as the $500 which is the principal isn't taxable.
b. Even though Firm B got $600 cash, there'll be no taxable income as the receipt brought about a liability. Hence, taxable income is 0.
c. Even though Firm B got $10000 cash, there'll be no taxable income as the receipt brought about a liability and the net worth wasn't increased. Hence, taxable income is 0.
d. The taxable income here will be $888.
Inventory records for Dunbar Incorporated revealed the following: Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Apr. 1 Beginning inventory 510 $ 2.38 Apr. 20 Purchase 370 2.63 Dunbar sold 650 units of inventory during the month. Ending inventory assuming weighted-average cost would be: (Round weighted-average unit cost to 4 decimal places and final answer to the nearest dollar amount.) Multiple Choice
Answer:
$572
Explanation:
The calculation of the ending inventory under weighted average cost is given below:
But before that the average cost per unit should be
= (510 × $2.38 + 370 × $2.63) ÷ (510 units + 370 units)
= ($1,213.80 + $973.10) ÷ (880 units)
= $2.4851
Now the ending inventory should be
= (510 + 370 - 650) × $2.4851
= $572
The US imposes a tariff on the import of a computer chip that is also produced at higher cost by a US firm. The US firm is an important supplier to the US Navy. The US is probably using the _____ argument for protectionism.
Answer: d. Strategic industry
Explanation:
Sometimes countries will introduce a tariff in order to reduce the importation of a good or service that might be ruled as important for the security of the country and so would need to be produced by a company in the country. Goods related to national defense are especially more likely to fall under such tariffs.
The industry is therefore said to be strategic. This is what happened in the scenario above because the chip is used by the U.S. Navy which makes it national defense related.

Fixed Overhead Spending and Volume Variances, Columnar and Formula Approaches.
Branch Company provided the following information:
Standard fixed overhead rate (SFOR) per direct labor hour $5.00
Actual fixed overhead $305,000
BFOH $300,000
Actual production in units 16,000
Standard hours allowed for actual units produced (SH) 64,000
Required:
a. Calculate the fixed overhead spending and volume variances.
b. Calculate the fixed overhead spending variance.
c. Calculate the total fixed overhead variance.
Answer:
a. Fixed overhead spending variance:
= Actual fixed overhead - Budgeted Flexible overhead
= 305,000 - 300,000
= $5,000 Unfavorable
Fixed overhead volume variance:
= (Standard fixed overhead rate (SFOR) per direct labor hour * Standard hours allowed for actual units produced ) - Budgeted Flexible overhead
= (5 * 64,000) - 300,000
= $20,000 favorable
b. Fixed overhead spending variance:
= Actual fixed overhead - Budgeted Flexible overhead
= 305,000 - 300,000
=$5,000 Unfavorable
c. Fixed overhead variance:
= (Standard fixed overhead rate (SFOR) per direct labor hour * Standard hours allowed for actual units produced ) - Actual fixed overhead
= (5 * 64,000) - 305,000
= $15,000 favorable
Synovec Co. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 24 percent for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 7 percent thereafter. If the required return is 11 percent, and the company just paid a dividend of $2.05, what is the current share price
Answer:
$84.18
Explanation:
The current share price can be determined using the two-stage dividend growth model.
In the two-stage dividend growth model, the first stage is characterised by high growth rate. In the second stage, the high growth rate falls to a steady or normal growth rate
dividend in Y1 = 2.05 x 1.24 = 2.54
dividend in Y2 = 2.05 x 1.24^2 = 3.15
dividend in Y3 = 2.05 x 1.24^3 = 3.91
Y3 = (3.91 X 1.07) / (0.11 - 0.07) = 104.59
Find the present value of these cash flows
(2.54 / 1.11) + (3.15 / 1.11²) + (3.91 / 1.11³) + (104.59/1.11³) = 84.18
When interest is compounded continuously, the amount of money increases at a rate proportional to the amount S present at time t, that is, dS/dt=rS, where r is the annual rate of interest.
a) Find the amount of money accrued at the end of 5 years when $6000 is deposited in a savings account drawing 534% annual interest compounded continuously. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
b) In how many years will the initial sum deposited have doubled? (Round your answer to the nearest year.)
c) Use a calculator to compare the amount obtained in part a) with the amount S=6000(1+14(0.0575))5(4) that is accrued when interest is compounded quarterly. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Given that;
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Where;
P= $6000
r = 5 3/4%
t = 5 years
n= 1
A = 6000(1 + 0.0575)^5
A= $ 7935
b) What time will A become $12,000
12000 = 6000(1 + 0.0575)^t
12000/6000 = (1 + 0.0575)^t
2 = (1 + 0.0575)^t
Take logarithm of both sides
log2 = t log(1 + 0.0575)
t= log2/log(1 + 0.0575)
t= 0.3010/0.0243
t = 12 years
c) when compounded quarterly;
S= 6000(1 + 1/4(0.0575))^(5)(4)
S= $7982
The amount when interest is compounded quarterly is higher than when it is compounded annually because the interest increases as the number of compounding periods increases.

A machine costing $56,894 with a 6-year life and $51,236 depreciable cost was purchased January 1. Compute the yearly depreciation expense using straight-line depreciation. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.
Answer:
$8539
Explanation:
Depreciation is a method of expensing the cost of an asset.
Yearly deprecation expense =depreciable cost / useful life
depreciable cost = cost of the machine - salvage value
51,236 / 6 = $8539.33
8539
To round off to the nearest dollar, look at the first number after the decimal, if it is less than 5, add zero to the units term, If it is equal or greater than 5, add 1 to the units term.

Alieia Boat Company manufactures 10 luxury yachts per month. A navigation system is included in each yacht. Alieia Boat manufactures the navigation system in-house but is considering the possibility of outsourcing this function. At present, the variable cost per unit is $300, and the fixed costs are $38,000 per month. If it outsources the security system, fixed costs could be reduced by half, and the vacant facilities could be rented out to earn $3000 per month of rental income. What is the maximum contract cost that Alieia should pay for outsourcing?
a) any cost lower than $2500 per unit
b) any cost lower than $2200 per unit
c) any cost lower than $300 per unit
d) any cost lower than $3800 per unit
Answer:
a) any cost lower than $2500 per unit
Explanation:
total avoidable costs = ($300 * 10) + ($38,000 / 2) + $3,000 = $25,000
total number of navigation systems prodcued per month = 10
avoidable cost per navigation system = $25,000 / 10 = $2,500
this means that th e comapny could pay up to $2,500 per navigtion system provided by an extrenal supplier

Atlanta Company, had an ROA of 6.5 percent, a profit margin of 11.50 percent, and sales $20 million. Calculate Atlanta's total assets. Show your calculation
Answer:
The right solution is "35.39".
Explanation:
Given:
Profit margin,
= 11.50%
or,
= 0.115
ROA,
= 6.5%
or,
= 0.065
Sales,
= $20 million
As we know,
⇒ [tex]Profit \ margin = \frac{Net \ income}{Sales}[/tex]
or,
⇒ [tex]Net \ income = Sales\times Profit \ margin[/tex]
[tex]=20\times 0.115[/tex]
[tex]=2.3[/tex]
hence,
The total asset will be:
⇒ [tex]ROA = \frac{Net \ income}{Total \ assets}[/tex]
or,
⇒ [tex]Total \ assets = \frac{Net \ income}{ROA}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{2.3}{0.065}[/tex]
[tex]=35.39[/tex]
