Interest During Construction Dexter Construction Corporation is building a student condominium complex; it started construction on January 1, Year 1. Dexter borrowed $1 million specifically for the project by issuing a 10%, 5-year, $1 million note, which is payable on December 31 of Year 3. Dexter also had a 12%, 5-year, $3 million note payable and a 10%, 10-year, $1.8 million note payable outstanding all year. In Year 1, Dexter incurred costs as follows: January 1 $280,000 March 1 600,000 June 30 1,000,000 November 1 480,000 Calculate Dexter's capitalized interest on the student condominium complex for Year 1. Capitalized interest

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$140,500

Explanation:

first we must calculate the weighted average accumulated expenditures:

incurred costs as follows:

January 1: $280,000 x 12/12 = $280,000

March 1: $600,000 x 10/12 = $500,000

June 30: $1,000,000 x 6/12 = $500,000

November 1: $480,000 x 2/12 = $80,000

total = $1,360,000

now we must calculate the weighted average interest rate on the non construction debt:

12% x $3 million = $360,000

10% x $1.8 million = $180,000

total = $540,000 / ($3,000,000 + $1,800,000) = 11.25%

capitalized interest:

$1,000,000 x 10% (specific construction debt) = $100,000

$360,000 x 11.25% (non construction debt) = $40,500

total $140,500

Dollar-value LIFO:

a. Starts with ending inventory measured at current costs and re-creates LIFO layers for measuring inventory costs.
b. Increases the recordkeeping costs of LIFO.
c. Only is allowed for internal reporting purposes.
d. None of these answer choices are correct.

Answers

Answer:

a. Starts with ending inventory measured at current costs and re-creates LIFO layers for measuring inventory costs.

Explanation:

Dollar-value LIFO refers a technique of accounting that employed for inventory based on the last-in-first-out model.

To obtain the dollar-value LIFO, the conversion price index that will be used to calculate the LIFO cost layer for each period must be calculated first.

Therefore, Dollar-value LIFO starts with ending inventory measured at current costs and re-creates LIFO layers for measuring inventory costs.

Ben has two options this weekend. He could work at his job and earn $8 per hour for three hours, or he could go to an exhibit at the art museum for that three hours. A ticket for the event costs $30. What is the opportunity cost of the event?

Answers

Answer:

Opportunity cost= -$54

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

He could work at his job and earn $8 per hour for three hours, or he could go to an exhibit at the art museum for those three hours. A ticket for the event costs $30.

The opportunity cost is the "cost" of not taking other alternatives.

Opportunity cost= total revenue - economic profit

Opportunity cost= -30 - 24= -$54

Assume that the public in the small country of Sylvania does not hold any cash. Commercial​ banks, however, hold 10 percent of their checking deposits as excess​ reserves, regardless of the interest rate. In the questions that​ follow, the​ "money multiplier" is given by 1 / (RR + ER ).

Where

RR ​= the percentage of deposits that banks are required to keep as reserves
ER ​= the percentage of deposits that banks voluntarily hold as excess reserves

Consider the balance sheet of one of several identical​ banks:

Assets Liabilities and Net Worth
Reserves 400 Checking Deposits 2,000
Loans 1,600 Net Worth 0
Total Assets 2,000 Liabilities and Net Worth 2,000

The required reserve ratio in this economy is _________​%. ​(Enter your response as an integer​.)
If the total money stock (supply) is $600,000, the total amount of reserves held in the banking system is_____ $

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

(1) The required reserve ratio is

= Required reserves ÷ Checkable deposit

where,

Required reserves

= Total reserves - Excess reserves

= 400 - 2,000 × 10%

= $400 - $200

= $200

And, the checkable deposit is $2,000

So, the required reserve ratio is

= $200 ÷ $2,000

= 10%

(2) Now the total amount of reserves is

But before that first we have to determine the money multiplier is

Money multiplier (MM) = 1  ÷ (ER + RR)

= 1  ÷ (0.10 + 0.10)

= 1 ÷ 0.20

= 5

Now

Monetary base (MB) is

= Money stock  ÷ Money multiplier

= $600,000 ÷ 5

= $120,000

And as we know that

Monetary base = Currency + Reserves, and Currency (i.e held by public) = 0

So,

Reserves = Monetary base = $120,000

You’ve borrowed $23,072 on margin to buy shares in Ixnay, which is now selling at $41.2 per share. You invest 1,120 shares. Your account starts at the initial margin requirement of 50%. The maintenance margin is 35%. Two days later, the stock price changes to $41 per share.
a) Will you receive a margin call?b) How low can the price of Disney shares fall before you receive a margin call?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Since the percentage margin is more than maintenance margin, there would be no call

(b) A margin call would be received when the price is $15.26

Explanation:

(a) Total investment = $23,072 × [tex]\frac{100}{50}[/tex] = $46,144

Total shares = Total investment ÷ share price

= $46,144 ÷ $41.2 = 1,120

Value of share in market = new price × number of shares

= $41 × 1,120

= $45,920

Value of equity = Value of share in the market - borrowed cash

= $45,920 - $23,072

= $22,848

Percentage margin = Value of equity ÷ Value of shares

= ($22,848 ÷ $45,920) × 100%

= 49.76%

(b) Total number of shares = 1,120

Assumed value of shares = $1,120X

Borrowed fund = $23,072

Value of equity = $1,120X - $23,072

Margin = Value of equity ÷ Value of shares

0.35 = ($1,120X - $23,072) ÷ $1,120X

392X = $1,120X - $23,072

1512X = $23,072

X = $15.26

Smiley Corporation wholesales repair products to equipment manufacturers. On April 1, Year 1, Smiley issued $1,400,000 of 5-year, 6% bonds at a market (effective) interest rate of 3%, receiving cash of $1,593,666. Interest is payable semiannually on April 1 and October 1.

Dr Cash 1,593,666

    Cr Bonds payable 1,400,000

    Cr Premium on bonds payable 193,666

2. First interest payment on October 1, Year 1, and amortization of bond premium for six months, using the straight-line method. (Round to the nearest dollar.)

premium per coupon = $193,666 / 10 coupons = $19,366.60

Dr Interest expense 22,633.40

Dr Premium on bonds payable 19,366.60

    Cr Cash 42,000

b. Explain why the company was able to issue the bonds for $1,593,666 (not $22,282,220) rather than for the face amount of $1,400,000 (not $21,300,000).

Since the bond's coupon rate was higher than the market rate, investors were willing to pay more for the bond (premium) than its face value. At $1,593,666, the actual returns will equal the returns of a $1,400,000 bond issued at market rate.

Answers

Answer:  Both (a) and (b)

Explanation:

Developments in IT—especially the advent of the internet

The latter 20th century saw many technological changes as the world evolved in IT. Markets that were not previously accessible became more accessible and many new products were created and flourished. The internet brought markets and people together and there was an immense opportunity for growth and success. This forced companies to adapt to the new environment because failure to take advantage on the new opportunities that IT offered could spell doom. Companies responded by downsizing to take advantage of better production technologies that required less people, they refocused their strategies to enable higher productivity and with IT making the world so interconnected, they were able to outsource production to cheaper places knowing that they could maintain regular contact with such place. These are but a few reasons why.

A more turbulent business environment.

The latter 20th century also saw a wave of turbulence in the business world. With a rise in nationalistic feelings and conflict that made acquiring raw materials harder such as the oil crises of the '70s and the 80s. This as well as the presence of more companies which led to increased competition forced some companies to engage in actions necessary for survival. They had to downsize, refocus and sometimes outsource to remain profitable.

Rick is planning to invest the following amounts at 7 percent: $254 at the end of year 1, $412 at the end of year 2, and $1,230 at the end of year 3. How much money will he have saved at the end of year 3

Answers

Answer:

$1,961.65

Explanation:

The formula for finding future value :

FV = P (1+r)^n

P = Present value

R = interest rate

N = number of years

First step is to find the present value of the cash flows.

PV can be found using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 1 = $254

Cash flow in year 2 = $412

Cash flow in year 3 = $1,230

I = 7%

Present value = $1,601.29

I would now input the value of p in the FV formula

$1,601.29 ( 1 + 0.07) ^3 = $1,961.65

To find the PV using a financial calacutor:

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.

Explanation:

Measure labor supply elasticity of Individual T's as follows :

              [tex]\bf Elasticity=\frac{Percent \;change\;in\;labour\;hr}{\frac{Average\;labour\;hour}{\frac{Percent\;change\;in\;wage\;price}{Average\;wage\;price} } }[/tex]

                                [tex]\bf =\frac{16-6}{\frac{16+6}{\frac{2}{\frac{35-25}{\frac{35+25}{2} } } } }[/tex]

                                [tex]\bf=\frac{10}{\frac{11}{\frac{10}{30} } }[/tex]

                                [tex]\bf=\frac{0.91}{0.33}[/tex]

                                [tex]=2.75[/tex]

Therefore, the elasticity of the labour supply of Individual T's is approx. of earnings per hour. 2.75, meaning that the work supply of Person T's is elastic across this wage range

e. sustainability

Answers

Answer: the global tragedy of the commons

Explanation:

The tragedy of the commons is a term that is used to refer to a situation whereby resources that are held in common by everyone but owned by no one and is therefore overused by individuals which results in degradation.

Krisp Systems moves production to a developing country where they can pump pollutants into the atmosphere without any legal restriction will lead to

global tragedy of the commons. Here, the global tragedy is that Krisp system will only work in their own interest and exploit the resources at the detriment of the people which will lead to pollution.

Answer:

d. the global tragedy of the commons.

Explanation:

The tragedy of the commons is a situation that arises as a result of the selfish interest of people who exploit the shared economic resources at the expense and detriment of other users of the resources in the environment. Activities which result in Tragedy of the commons would cause pollution of the environment, excessive consumption, as well as the depletion of resources. A way to curb this sort of exploitation is by the regulation of the activities of companies by the government. This would ensure that certain limits are not overstepped.

When Krisp Systems decides to bypass this regulation by moving to a developing country where they are free to pump pollutants into the atmosphere, they are in effect contributing to the tragedy of the commons.

Answers

Answer: the answer is given below

Explanation:

It should be noted that the account receivable ending balance was calculated as:

Credit sales = 156,000

Less: collection of account= 132,300

Less: written off = 6,300

= 17,400

The bad debt expense was calculated as:

= (17,400 × 10%) + 6300

= (17400 × 0.1) + 6300

= 1740 + 6300

= 8040

Answer: An effective Internal Control

Auditors must evaluate internal controls

Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board

Explanation:

The early part of the 21st century saw shocking financially improper activities by companies such as WorldCom and Enron exposed to the world. Investor Confidence was shaken and the government needed to do something to restore it.

This was why in 2002, the US Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley act that aimed to ensure that the actions of those companies were never repeated.

The act requires the following;

a) An effective Internal Control

The act requires that companies enact very effective Internal controls to detect financial irregularities and even went forward to make it the responsibility of the Top Executives to ensure that this is so.

b) Auditors must Evaluate Internal Controls.

Auditors had to change their auditing strategies that were deemed inefficient. They are now required to properly evaluate in-depth, the internal controls that a company adopts to be able to give an opinion on it and they do this based on the guidelines of the Public Accounting Board.

c) Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board

The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB)  was established by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act with it's main purpose being to monitor and oversee auditors as they audit companies so that they may protect the public from false financial information. They set rules and standards that Auditors must follow and these rules in turn have to be approved by the Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC).

To ensure that the deeds of those corporations were never repeated, the US Congress created the Sarbanes-Oxley act in 2002:

An effective Internal Control.Auditors must evaluate internal controls.Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board.

US Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley act, all financial reports must contain an Internal Controls Report demonstrating that the company's financial data is accurate and that sufficient controls are in place to protect it.

A yearly evaluation of internal controls by a third-party CPA firm to see how successful each one is. The auditor of a publicly traded firm must vouch for management's evaluation of internal controls and provide a report on it.

As a result, the significance of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires are the aforementioned.

Explanation:

bonds price = PV of face value + PV of coupons

PV of face value = $1,000,000 / 1.03²⁰ = $553,675.75

PV of coupon payments = $45,000 x 14.8775 (annuity factor 3%, 20 payments) = $669,487.50

issue price = $553,675.75 + $669,487.50 = $1,223,163.25 ≈ $1,223,163

Dr Cash 1,223,163

    Cr Bonds payable 1,000,000

    Cr Premium on bonds payable 223,163

amortization coupon 1 = $45,000 - ($1,223,163 x 3%) = $45,000 - $36,695 = $8,305

amortization coupon 2 = $45,000 - ($1,214,858 x 3%) = $45,000 - $36,446 = $8,554

At December 31, 2020, the loss that Oriole should recognize is

Answers

Answer:

At December 31, 2020, the loss that Oriole should recognize is $123,000

Explanation:

Given:

Estimated selling price = $ 1,050,000

Estimated cost of disposal = $43,000

Normal profit margin = $123,000

Current replacement cost = $927,000

Net realizable value of the inventory = Estimated selling price - Estimated cost of disposal

Net realizable value = $1,050,000 - $43,000 = $1,007,000

Replacement cost = $927,000

Net realizable value - Normal profit = $1,007,000  - $123,000 = $884,000

The replacement cost will be taken as the market value of the inventory because it is higher than the floor (net realizable value - normal profit) and lower than ceiling (net realizable value).

Cost of inventory = $1,007,000

Loss to be recognized using lower of cost or market rule  = Cost - market value

= $1,007,000 - $884,000 = $123,000

What variable manufacturing overhead cost would be included in the company’s planning budget for March?

Answers

Answer:

$540,000

Explanation:

The amount on of variable manufacturing overhead cost to be included in the company's planning budget for March is budgeted production units of 20,000 units multiplied by standard direct labor hours of 3 hours per unit multiplied by cost of direct labor hour used for variable overhead which is $9.

budgeted variable overhead cost for March=20,000*3*$9=$540,000.00  

However, the actual cost of variable manufacturing overhead for the month is $612,300,hence an adverse variance of $72,300 is recorded ($612,300-$540,000)
