Answer:
1. Times interest earned ratio is 4.72
2. Debt to equity ratio is 1.12. Option C
Explanation:
Current liabilities = $185
Income before interest and taxes = $170
10% Bonds, long-term = $360
Interest expense = $36
Total liabilities = $545
Income before tax = $134
Stockholders' equity Income tax = $29
Common stock = $222
Net income = $105
Retained earnings = $289
Total stockholders' equity = $511
Total liabilities and equity = $1,056
1. Times interest earned ratio = Earnings before interest and taxes/Interest expenses
= $170 ÷ $36
= 4.72
Current liabilities = $180
Income before interest and taxes = $118
10% Bonds, long-term = $360
Interest expense = $36
Total liabilities = $540
Income before tax = $82
Shareholders' equity Income tax = $20
Capital stock 201 Net income = $62
Retained earnings = $283
Total shareholders'equity = $484
Total liabilities and equity = $1,024
2. Debt to equity ratio = Total debt ÷ Total equity
= 540 ÷ 484
= 1.12
A company began its fiscal year with inventory of $191,000. Purchases and cost of goods sold for the year were $950,000 and $984,000, respectively. What was the amount of ending inventory
Answer:
Ending inventory= $157,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= $191,000.
Purchases and cost of goods sold for the year were $950,000 and $984,000.
To calculate the ending inventory, we need to use the following formula:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory
984,000= 191,000 + 950,000 - ending inventory
984,000= 1,141,000 - ending inventory
Ending inventory= $157,000

Answer:
C) if the court finds that Shawn has substantially performed, he will be able to recover the contract price less any damages caused by his failure to perform as promised.
Explanation:
From the question Harry signed a contract with Shawn to build a house. Harry made some specification to build the house. But Shawn did not follow the specifications now Harry doesn't want to pay him the contract amount.
Under doctrine of specific performance, Harry can pay less money than the contract price. Because Shawn has performed substantially, he is not entitled to receive the contract price as agreed.
Chang Industries has 1,200 defective units of product that have already cost $13.20 each to produce. A salvage company will purchase the defective units as they are for $4.20 each. Chang's production manager reports that the defects can be corrected for $6.80 per unit, enabling them to be sold at their regular market price of $19.40. The incremental income or loss on reworking the units is: Multiple Choice $18,240 income. $10,080 loss. $8,160 loss. $15,120 income. $10,080 income.
Answer:
$10,080 income
Explanation:
The computation of incremental income or loss on reworking the units is shown below:-
Incremental income on reworking unit = Sales after reworking - Sales to salvage company - Incremental cost
= (1,200 × $19.40) - (1,200 × $4.20) - (1,200 × $6.80)
= $23,280 - $5,040 - $8,160
= $10,080 income
Therefore for computing the Incremental income on reworking unit we simply applied the above formula.

The following data are accumulated by Watershed Inc. in evaluating two competing capital investment proposals: Project A Project Z Amount of investment $55,000 $50,000 Useful life 12 years 15 years Estimated residual value $5,000 $6,000 Estimated total income over the useful life $57,600 $63,000 Determine the expected average rate of return for each project.
Answer:
Project Average rate of return
A 16%
Z 15%
Explanation:
The average rate of return (ARR) is the proportion of the average investment that is earned as profit.
Average rate of return(ARR) = average operating income/ Average investment
Project A=
Average income = 57,600/12 = 4800
Average investment = (55,000 + 5,000)/2 = 30000
ARR = 4,800/30,000 × 100 = 16%
Projecr Z
Average income = 63,000/15= 4200
Aveage investment = (50,000 + 6,000)/2= 28,000
ARR = 4,200/28,000× 100 = 15%
Consider the following 2011 data for Newark General Hospital (in millions of dollars):__________.
Static Flexible Actual
Budget Budget Results
Revenues $4.7 $4.8 $4.5
Costs 4.1 4.1 4.2
Profits 0.6 0.7 0.3
Calculate and interpret the profit variance.
=Actual profit-Static profit
=$0.3-$0.6
=-$0.3
There is an unfavorable profit variance which means that the company earned less that it prepared for.
Calculate and interpret the revenue variance.
=Actual revenues-Static Revenues
=$4.5-$4.7
=-$0.2
There is an unfavorable revenue variance, because the company sold less than it planned for.
Calculate and interpret the cost variance.
=Static Cost-Actual Cost
=4.1-4.2
=-$0.1
There is an unfavorable cost variance, this means that the company spent more than it planned for.
Calculate and interpret the volume and price variances on the revenue side.
Volume variance=Flexible Revenue-Static Revenue
=$4.8-$4.7=$0.1
Favorable because the company sold more units than it planned for.
Price variance=Actual Revenues-Flexible Revenues
=$4.5-$4.8=-$0.3
The answer is unfavorable because the company sold it products at a lower price than plan which might have actually resulted to the increase in actual volume sold.
Calculate and interpret the volume and management variances on the cost side.
Volume variance=Static cost –Actual Cost
=$4.1-$4.1=$0
Favorable which means that regardless of the fact that the company sold more units, the company produce the same number of units it plan for.
Management variance=Flexible Cost –Actual Costs
=$4.1-$4.2=$0.1
This is unfavorable which means maybe as a result of the higher units sold, the company had to spend more in servicing these units resulting to cost inefficiency for the period.
How are the variances calculated above related?
The above variances are associated, as the increase in volume, should increase the revenue and cost proportionality. However, it has not increased in the same portion. Therefore, there are unfavorable variances.
Answer:
Calculate and interpret the profit variance.
profit variance = actual profit - budgeted profit = $0.3 - $0.7 = -$0.4 U
The profit variance is unfavorable because actual profit was lower than the budgeted profit. Whenever we have a static and a flexible budget, we must use the flexible budget to calculate the variances. Not only revenues were lower than expected, but also costs were higher than expected.
Calculate and interpret the revenue variance.
revenue variance = actual revenue - budgeted revenue = $4.5 - $4,8 = -$0.3 U
The revenue variance is unfavorable because revenue was lower than expected. This means that they either had less patients or charged less per patient.
Calculate and interpret the cost variance.
cost variance = actual costs - budgeted costs = $4.2 - $4,1 = $0.1 U
When we analyze costs variances, positive numbers represent unfavorable variances because actual costs were larger than budgeted. It is the opposite to what happens with revenue and profit variances.
In this case, actual costs were larger than expected, which means that the hospital spent more money than budgeted.
Calculate and interpret the volume and price variances on the revenue side.
volume variance = flexible revenue - static revenue = $4.8 - $4.7 = $0.1 F
the flexible budget shows higher numbers because the number of patients was higher than expected.
price variance = actual revenue - flexible revenue = $4.5 - $4.8 = -$0.3 U
even though the volume variance was favorable, more patients, the price charged was lower than expected because total revenue was lower than the flexible revenue.
Calculate and interpret the volume and management variances on the cost side.
volume variance (cost) = actual costs - budgeted costs = $4.2 - $4.1 = $0.1 U
When cost variances are positive, they are unfavorable because expenses were higher than expected. This means that the hospital spent more money than they had planned for carrying out the same amount of procedures.
management variance = actual costs - budgeted costs = $4.2 - $4.1 = $0.1 U
Since costs were higher than expected, this means that the hospital's management didn't perform properly. In this case, all variances show that management didn't work well. Revenues were lower than expected, costs were higher than expected and profits were lower. They should be glad that this is just a question, in real life they would be in serious problems for poor performance.

Suppose Rebecca needs a dog sitter so that she can travel to her sister’s wedding. Rebecca values dog sitting for the weekend at $200. Susan is willing to dog sit for Rebecca so long as she receives at least $175. Rebecca and Susan agree on a price of $185. Suppose the government imposes a tax of $30 on dog sitting. What is the deadweight loss of the tax?
Answer:
The deadweight loss of the tax is $25
Explanation:
In order to calculate the deadweight loss of the tax we would have to make the following calculation:
deadweight loss of the tax=maximum willingness to pay - minimum willingness to accept
maximum willingness to pay=$200
minimum willingness to accept =$175
deadweight loss of the tax=$200-$175
deadweight loss of the tax=$25
The deadweight loss of the tax is $25
Answer: $25
Explanation:
Given Data:
Rebecca value for dog sitting = $200
Susan’s minimum agreed price = $175
Rebecca and Susan agreed price = $185
Government tax on dog sitting = $30
Dead weight loss = Rebecca value - Susan list price
= $200 - $175
= $25
The dead weight loss of tax is $25
g invested $800,000 in a new CNC hot wire cutting machine. They intend to sell foam products fabricated using this machine. At an interest rate of 12% per year compounded quarterly, the quarterly income required to recover the investment in 3 years is (choose closet answer):
Answer:
Quarterly income = $ 36,643.03
Explanation:
The quarterly income ca be determined using the present value of the annuity technique.
The Present Value of the annuity technique
PV = A × ((1- (1+r)^(-n)/r
A- quarterly payment, n- number of quarters, quarterly rate, PV - Present of investment
A- ? n -3× 12= 36, r-12%/4= 3%
800,000 = A× (1- (1.03)^(-36)
800,000 = A× (1- (1.03)^(-36)
800,000 = A × 21.8322525
A = 800,000/21.8322525
A= 36,643.03
Quarterly income = $ 36,643.03

German brothels recently began offering a monthly subscription service for multiple purchasers. If you thought that the brothels' encouragement of prostitution was immoral to begin with, would you consider this pricing plan to be even more immoral? Suppose a particular patron at a German brothel has the following willingness-to-pay schedule for services at the brothel, per session. Session Willingness to Pay 1st $105 2nd $90 3rd $75 4th $60 5th $45 6th $30 Suppose this consumer would not demand any more sessions, even for free. Also assume that the marginal cost to the brothel, per session, is constant at $15. At a price of $82.50 per session, the number of sessions demanded by this consumer would be . At this price and quantity, consumer surplus is
Answer:
The pricing plan of the is even more immoral to buttress that the fact that brothel was encouraged, the fact that subscription packages was introduced will enhance the practice of prostitution which also has a pricing system which is aimed at I creasing the producer surplus.
Explanation:
Given the following :
Session - - - - - Willingness to Pay
1st - - - - - $105
2nd - - - - $90
3rd - - - - -$75
4th - - - - - $60
5th - - - - - $45
6th - - - - - $30
At price of $82.50 per session, the number of sessions demanded by this consumer will be 2.
Consumer surplus = ($105 - $82.50) = $22.50
Producer surplus = ($82.50 - $22.50) = $60

"Addison Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. The equipment will have an initial cost of $522,000, a 3 year life, and no salvage value. If the accounting rate of return for the project is 6%, what is the annual increase in net cash flow
Answer:
$31,320.00
Explanation:
The formula for accounting rate of return is the annual net cash flow divided by the initial investment.
If the initial investment was $522,000 and the accounting rate of return is computed to be 6% per year, hence the annual increase in cash flow accruing from the investment can be calculated by changing the subject of the formula.
ARR=annual increase in cash flow/initial investment
ARR is 6%
initial investment is $522,000
annual increase in cash flow?
6%=annual increase in cash flow/$522,000
annual increase in cash flow=6%*$522,000= $31,320.00

Fixed manufacturing overhead $140,800
Fixed selling and administrative $91,500
First, we need to calculate the total variable cost per unit:
Variable cost per unit= 45 + 30 + 1 + 8= $84
Income statement:
Sales= 6,100*123= 750,300
Total variable cost= 6,100*84= (512,400)
Contribution margin= 237,900
Fixed manufacturing overhead= (140,800)
Fixed selling and administrative= (91,500)
Net operating income= 5,600

Suppose you win the lottery and have two options: A. Take $1 million now. B. Take $1.2 million to be paid out as 300,000 now and then $300,000 a year for 3 years. Which is the better deal? Assume that the interest rate is 10%. Please show your work. (4 point)
Answer:
A. Take $1 million now.
Explanation:
A. If we take $1 million now the present value of the money is $1 million.
B. If we choose to take $1.2 million paid out over 3 years then present value will at 10% will be;
$300,000 + $300,000 / 1.2 + $300,000/ 1.44 + $300,000 / 1.728
$300,000 + $250,000 + $208,000+ $173,611 = $931,944
The present value of option B is less than present value of option A. We should select option A and take $1 million now.
At a lump-sum cost of $72000, Sunland Company recently purchased the following items for resale: Item No. of Items Purchased Resale Price Per Unit M 4600 $4.05 N 2300 12.60 O 6600 6.60 The appropriate cost per unit of inventory is: M N O $3.63 $11.28 $5.91 $3.20 $9.95 $5.21 $5.33 $5.33 $5.33 $4.05 $12.60 $6.60
Answer:
M = $3.20
N = $9.95
O = $5.21
I believe it is the second option.
Explanation:
Item No. of Items Purchased Resale Price Per Unit
M 4,600 $4.05
N 2,300 $12.60
O 6,600 $6.60
total resale price:
M = 4,600 x $4.05 = $18,630N = 2,300 x $12.60 = $28,980O = 6,600 x $6.60 = $43,560total = $91,170markup % = ($91,170 - $72,000) / $72,000 = 26.625%
purchase cost per unit:
M = $4.05 / ( 1 + 26.625%) = $3.20N = $12.60 / ( 1 + 26.625%) = $9.95O = $6.60 / ( 1 + 26.625%) = $5.21Go to the internet and find a news article published within the last month that discusses changes in demand and supply of particular goods/services, summarize key points and post in the Discussions area. Refer to week 2 content materials and use specific economic vocabulary within your summary, i.e. demand, quantity demanded, determinants of demand, shifts in demand curve, etc. Likewise with supply. Also you should discuss changes in equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price.
Answer: The explanation is provided below
Explanation:
Below article is the summary of the acceleration of inflation in the emerging markets that was published in 2018.
According to the article, inflation in an economy is caused by an adverse supply shock or as a result of the expansionary fiscal policy or the expansionary monetary policy.
In an adverse supply shock, total quantity of basic goods will reduce drastically causing the aggregate demand to rise exponentially and therefore, push prices higher and then gradually lead to inflation.
Also, the continous and eventual implementation of the expansionary fiscal or monetary policy through continous tax cuts or by increasing government spending or reducting interest rates, lead into significant increase in the aggregate demand and as a result, prices rise eventually resulting in hyperinflation in the economy. This will also lead to increase in the real GDP of the economy.
Different tools in the monetary policy framework can be used to control inflation such as government securities,
the cash reserve ratio, interest rates. To reduce recession, government utilize automatic stabilizer in order to boost the economy.
g Job 397 was recently completed. The following data have been recorded on its job cost sheet: Direct materials $ 44,000 Direct labor-hours 630 DLHs Direct labor wage rate $ 12 per DLH Number of units completed 2,000 units The company applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $12 per direct labor-hour. Required: Compute the unit product cost that would appear on the job cost sheet for this job.
Answer:
$29.56
Explanation:
The computation of unit product cost is shown below:-
Unit product cost = (Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead) ÷ Number of units completed
= ($44,000 + (63 × $12) + ($12 × 630)) ÷ 2,000
= ($44,000 + $7,560 + $7,560) ÷ 2,000
= $59,120 ÷ 2,000
= $29.56
Therefore for computing the unit product cost we simply applied the above formula.
Botswana Electronics Company (BEC), is contemplating a research and development program encompassing eight major projects. The company is constrained from embarking on all of the projects by the number of available scientists (40) and the budget available for the projects ($300,000). What are the resource requirements and the estimated profit for each project?
Explanation:
Note that we are told that Botswana Electronics Company (BEC) is constrained because of the number of available scientists (40) and the budget available for the projects ($300,000). Since this is an Electronics production company much of the needed resources includes metals, cables, power, as well as specialised workforce.
Using conservative estimates for the eight project, the profit for each project should be $37,500 b($300,000/8)
Black Sparrow Aviation, Inc. is concerned they are not maintaining adequate liquidity. The accounting department has provided you, the newly hired finance manager, with the following ratios:
1. Current ratio 4.5 Industry norm 4.0
2. Quick ratio 2.0 Industry norm 3.1
3. Inventory turnover 6.0 Industry norm 10.4
4. Average collection period 73 days Industry norm 52 days
5. Average payment period 31 days Industry norm 40 days
Discuss · In your opinion, what do these ratios indicate about Black Sparrow Aviation, Inc.?
A. What recommendations would you make based on these ratios?
B. What results do you think you can achieve if your recommendations are followed?
C. Why might your recommendations not be effective?
Answer:
Black Sparrow Aviation, Inc.
1. Indications from ratios about Black Sparrow Aviation:
The current ratio of 4.5 is higher than the industry's norm of 4.0. This indicates that working capital elements are not being managed properly. This is supported by the the remaining four ratios. Inventory level is not optimal. More inventory is held without being sold to customers. Obviously, from the inventory turnover of 6.0 translating to approximately 61 days that it takes the company to sell its inventory as against the industry average of 35 days, it shows that the marketing and sales forces lack stamina. Debt collection from customers is over-delayed, showing poor credit policy and management. Perhaps, it takes the company many days to issue invoices. More time than necessary is allowed to customers to pay compared to the industry norm. In addition, payments are made to suppliers 11 days earlier than the industry average. Advantage is not being taken of trade credit offered by suppliers. Trade credit is an important source of funding operations, which every company should utilize to the maximum.
2A. Based on the above ratios, I would recommend:
1. Minimum inventory should be maintained.
2. Sales efforts should be intensified, so that more sales are made each year than it is currently the case.
3. Debt collection is an important activity for every company that sells on account. This activity should be taken seriously. Credit extension to customers should not exceed 50 days.
4. Payments to suppliers can be delayed by more 10 days without offending suppliers.
2B. Results from Recommendations:
1. Working capital is not tied in inventory.
2. More debts are recovered from customers and on time. Delay increases credit default.
3. More sales are made to customers, increasing the turnover. The profit is always in the frequency of turnover.
4. Short-term financing is obtained from suppliers, which strengthens liquidity.
Explanation:
Liquidity management is a financial management tool, which describes a company's ability to meet financial obligations through cash flow, funding activities, and capital management in order to minimize the risks associated with illiquidity.
Calculation, analysis, comparison of ratios are some of the ways to make informed decisions on liquidity management. Ratios should be compared over many periods, with best performing competitors, and the industry norm to ascertain the position of the reporting entity.
Financial aspects of employment
Wang Min and Roger are friends from college and both have received offers for entry level positions at a San Francisco corporation in their related fields. Wang Min and Roger would like to room together in San Francisco.
Consider Wang Min and Roger’s personal situations, assuming the city indices are:
Boston: 151
San Francisco: 135
Cleveland: 99
Consider the following scenarios:
Wang Min
Wang Min Wang Min is from Boston, where the cost of living is higher than it is in San Francisco. Wang Min’s parents are discouraging her from taking the position because they would like her to live at home for a while, find a job in the area, and save some money. Wang Min has already convinced her parents that she will live on her own even if she finds a job in Boston. Wang Min took a personal finance course and knows how to compare salaries in different cities. Wang Min has been offered $25,000 to work in San Francisco.
Roger
Roger is from Cleveland, where the cost of living is lower than it is in San Francisco. Roger’s parents are encouraging him to take the position because jobs are hard to come by in Cleveland and he will be able to get a good start to his career and save some money. Now, he wants to make sure that the offer in San Francisco is worth the move. Roger has been offered $30,000 to work in San Francisco.
Answer:
Wang Min's situation:
Boston: 151
San Francisco: 135
If Wang Min wishes to consider a similar offer in Boston, the offer should be for at least = ($25,000/135) x 151 = $27,963. Since San Francisco is "cheaper" than Boston, she should earn more money in Boston in order to consider a comparable offer.
Roger's situation:
Cleveland: 99
San Francisco: 135
If Roger wishes to consider a similar offer in Cleveland, the offer should be for at least = ($30,000/135) x 99 = $22,000. Since San Francisco is "more expensive" than Cleveland, he should earn less money in Cleveland in order to consider a comparable offer.
