Bookmark question for later Zoey is the CEO of a corporation she organized herself, and the corporation has 15 shareholders. The company operates in several states, as well as outside of the U.S. Her business consists mostly of training services for in-home medical care personnel. Her company would be a __________ corporation

Answers

Answer:

Professional corporation

Explanation:

A professional corporation is a type of corporation that is established by professional, majorly licensed individuals; they could include doctors, attorneys or architects. They mostly provide services that are related to the profession they practice. For example, architects establish an architectural firm to provide architectural services.

Professional corporations are usually established based on the laws binding the profession or the laws of the state. Most professional entrepreneurs can set up a professional corporation and can be established by one or more professionals.

In most professional corporations, the shareholders are usually only licensed individuals of the service rendered by the professional company.

Therefore, considering the information, Zoey's corporation would be a professional corporation.

(LaVilla) LaVilla is a village in the Italian Alps. Given its enormous popularity among
Swiss, German, Austrian, and Italian skiers, all of its beds are always booked in the winter
season and there are, on average, 1,200 skiers in the village. On average, skiers stay in
LaVilla for 10 days.
a. How many new skiers are arriving—on average—in LaVilla every day?
b. A study done by the largest hotel in the village has shown that skiers spend on average $50 per person on the first day and $30 per person on each additional day in local
restaurants. The study also forecasts that—due to increased hotel prices—the average
length of stay for the 2003/2004 season will be reduced to five days. What will be the
percentage change in revenues of local restaurants compared to last year (when skiers

Q2.6 (Highway) While driving home for the holidays, you can’t seem to get Little’s Law out of

Answers

Answer:

  a) 120 skiers per day

  b) 6.25% increase in revenue

Explanation:

a) If the average skier stays 10 days, the average turnover is 1/10 of the skiers per day, or 1200/10 = 120 skiers per day.

__

b) For a stay of n days, the average skier spends ...

  50 +(n-1)30 = 20 +30n

and the average spending per day is ...

  (20 +30n)/n = (20/n) +30

So, for a 10-day stay, the average skier spends in restaurants ...

  20/10 +30 = 32 . . . . per day

And for a 5-day stay, the average skier will spend ...

  20/5 +30 = 34 . . . . per day

The change in restaurant revenue is expected to be ...

  (34 -32)/32 × 100% = 2/32 × 100% = 6.25%

Restaurant revenues will be 6.25% higher compared to last year.

Karen Bartlett was given a generic version of Sulindac, an anti-inflammatory drug. The result was that she developed toxic epidermal necrolysis, a disease that disfigured and blinded her. She brought suit alleging that there were warnings that should have been put on the generic version of the drug because issues with the skin infections were being reported. However, the manufacturer to Sulindac did not have FDA approval to place the warning on the product. The jury awarded Ms. Bartlett $21 million, and the generic manufacturer appealed the decision. Which of the following theories would be the best approach for the generic manufacturer to take in order to have the verdict reversed?

a. the commerce clause
b. substantive due process
c. preemption
d. due process because of the excessive size of the verdict

Answers

Answer:

option c: Preemption

Explanation:

preemption can simply be defined as the rule of law that proclaims the federal law and the constitution as the supreme law in all the land so therefore if there is a case  whereby there is a conflict between a federal and a state law, the federal law will be in absolute control and this will render the state law to be void.

there are two  primary occasion that will warrant preemption  they are where clearly, federal law preempts state or local law, and  also where preemption is implied.  different kind of preemption can also be said to be express preemption, implied preemption, field preemption, conflict preemption and frustration of purpose preemption.

The expected average rate of return for a proposed investment of $800,000 in a fixed asset with a useful life of four years, straight-line depreciation, no residual value, and an expected total net income of $360,000 for the four years is

Answers

Answer:

22.5%

Explanation:

For computation of return on investment first we need to find out the average investment and average income per year which is shown below:-

Average investment = Proposed investment ÷ Average

= $800,000 ÷ 2

= $400,000

Now, the Average income per year = Expected total net income ÷ Number of year

= $360,000 ÷ 4

= $90,000

Return on investment = Average income per year ÷ Average investment

= $90,000 ÷ $400,000

= 0.225

or

= 22.5%

A manufacturing firm is considering two locations for a plant to produce a new product.

Answers

Answer:

Cost Advantage of different locations:

b. $20,000

Phoenix certainly had a cost advantage over Atlanta and based on this factor, it should be chosen for the new plant instead of any other city.

Explanation:

a) Total Costs of different locations:

                        Atlanta       Phoenix

Fixed Cost      $80,000     $140,000

Variable cost  400,000      320,000

Total Costs  $480,000    $460,000

b) Variable costs

                                   Atlanta       Phoenix

Annual Demand        20,000        20,000

Variable cost/unit        $20              $16

Total variable cost  $400,000  $320,000

c) Cost Advantage is the competitive edge which location (or company) can have over another through reduced production or marketing costs or both so that it can offer cheaper prices or use excess profits to bolster promotion or distribution.   In this case, the comparison is on the total cost, which is made of variable and fixed costs.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales $382,500 (units 5,100 $75 per unit)

variable costs $245,000 (48.04 per unit)

fixed costs $98,000.

Option 1:

Increase selling price by 16%.

New selling price= 75*1.16= 87

Sales= 5,100*87= 443,700

variable costs= (245,000)

fixed costs= (98,000)

Net income= 100,700

2. Reduce variable costs to 59% of sales.

Contribution margin= (382,500*0.41)= 156,825

fixed costs= (98,000)

Net income= 58,825

Units sold                45,700                        19,600                  65,300

Revenue                $1,828,000              $646,800              $2,474,800

Variable Cost          -1,371,000                -588,000                -1959,000

Contribution           $457,000                  $58,800                 $515,800

Fixed Costs              652,800                   $0                           652,800

Net Income/(Loss) -$195,800                 $58,800                 -$137,000

b) Accepting this order will reduce operating loss from $195,800 to $137,000, making a difference of $58,800.  The reason is that the special order will make a contribution towards offsetting the fixed cost with a sum of $58,800.

c) Minimum price per unit to produce positive contribution margin:

The contribution margin per unit = Selling price minus variable cost per unit = $40 - $30 = $10 per unit.

To produce positive contribution margin, selling price must be more than variable cost.  Selling price will be at least $31.

Therefore, the minimum price per unit to produce positive contribution is $31.

Explanation:

a) In differential analysis, only relevant costs are considered.  Fixed costs are regarded as sunk and therefore irrelevant in making any differential decision.

b) The revenue is a function of selling price and quantity sold.  While the variable costs equal units sold multiplied by the unit variable cost.

Ending Inventory value = $23 *6 = $138;  $15 *6 = $90;  $18.27 *6 = $109.62

Weighted Average = Cost of Goods Available for Sale / Quantity Available for Sale = $603/33 = $18.27 per unit

Explanation:

FIFO: First In, First Out:  This is a method of costing inventory which assumes that goods remaining in stock are those that were brought in last.  This means that goods are sold out according to the time they are bought, with earlier bought goods being sold before later bought goods.

LIFO: Last In, First Out:  This costing method assumes that goods that are sold are those that were bought later leaving those bought earlier to remain in stock.  The entity using this method exhausts the last quantity bought before selling the earlier quantities.

Weighted Average: This is another technique which weighs the averages of the cost of inventory before determining the value of inventory.  The weighted average method divides the cost of the goods available for sale by the number of those units still on the shelf.  The result is the weighted average cost per unit, which can be used to assign a cost to both the ending inventory and the cost of goods sold.

Lansing, Inc., provided the following data for its two producing departments: Molding Polishing Total Estimated overhead $400,000 $80,000 $480,000 Direct labor hours (expected and actual): Form A 1,000 5,000 6,000 Form B 4,000 15,000 19,000 Total 5,000 20,000 25,000 Machine hours: Form A 3,500 3,000 6,500 Form B 1,500 2,000 3,500 Total 5,000 5,000 10,000 Machine hours are used to assign the overhead of the Molding Department, and direct labor hours are used to assign the overhead of the Polishing Department. There are 30,000 units of Form A produced and sold and 50,000 of Form B. Required:
1. Calculate the overhead rates for each department.
2. Using departmental rates, assign overhead to the two products and calculate the overhead cost per unit. How does this compare with the plantwide rate unit cost, using direct labor hours?
3. What if the machine hours in Molding were 1,200 for Form A and 3,800 for Form B and the direct labor hours used in Polishing were 5,000 and 15,000, respectively? Calculate the overhead cost per unit for each product using departmental rates, and compare with the plantwide rate unit costs calculated in Requirement 2. What can you conclude from this outcome?

Answers

Answer:

1. Form A$80 per machine hour

Form B $4 per direct labor hour

2.Form A from $3.84 to $10.00

Form B from $7.30 to $3.60

3. Form A Unit overhead cost $ 3.87

Form B Unit overhead cost $ 7.28

Explanation:

Lansing, Inc

1. Overhead rates for each department will be;

Molding

$400,000/5,000

= $80 per machine hour

Polishing

$80,000/20,000

= $4 per direct labor hour

2. The overhead assignment:

Form A

($80 ×3,500) + ($4 ×5,000)

$280,000+$20,000

=$300,000

Form B

($80 ×1,500) + ($4 ×15,000)

$120,000+$20,000

=$180,000

Total applied overhead $300,000 and $180,000

Units of production Form A :

300,000÷30,000

=Unit overhead cost $10.00

Units of production Form B

180,000÷50,000

= Unit overhead cost $3.60

Plantwide rate Will be :

$480,000/25,000

= $19.20 per direct labor hour

Form A overhead cost in units will be:

$19.20 ×6,000/30,000

$19.20×0.2

$3.84

Form B overhead cost in unit will be :

$19.20 ×19,000/50,000

$19.20×0.38

$7.296 approximately $7.30

The plantwide rate for Form A

$3.84 to $10.00

The plantwide rate for Form B

$7.30 to $3.60

3. Overhead assignment:

Form A

($80 ×1,200) + ($4 ×5,000)

=$96,000+$20,000

=$116,000

Form B

($80 ×3,800) + ($4 ×15,000)

=$304,000 +$60,000

=$364,000

Total applied overhead

Form A $116,000

Form B $364,000

Units of production

Form A

$116,000 ÷ 30,000

=Unit overhead cost $ 3.87

Form B

$364,000÷ 50,000

Unit overhead cost $ 7.28

Which of the following is NOT a pitfall an organization should avoid in strategic planning? Involving all managers rather than delegating planning to a "planner" Failing to communicate the plan to employees Failing to create a collaborative climate supportive of change Top managers not actively supporting the strategic-planning process Doing strategic planning only to satisfy accreditation or regulatory requirements

Answers

Answer:

Involving all managers rather than delegating planning to a "planner"

Explanation:

Strategic planning is a process of establishing the direction of a business. It assesses where the business is and where it is going. And the action plan needed to get to it's goal.

Delegating planning to a planner rather than involving all managers is an identified pitfall in strategic planning.

This is why Involving all managers rather than delegating planning to a "planner" is the correct answer since we are required to identify a non pitfall by the question.

On January 1, Valuation Allowance for Available-for-Sale Investments had a zero balance. On December 31, the cost of the available-for-sale securities was $252,000, and the fair value was $258,890. Prepare the adjusting entry to record the unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale investments on December 31. Refer to the Chart of Accounts for exact wording of account titles.

Answers

Answer:

Dr  Valuation Allowance for Available-for-Sale Investments  $6890

Cr  unrealized gain/(loss) on AFS investments                                        $6890

Explanation:

The unrealized  gain or loss on the available-for-sale securities is the difference between its cost of $252,000 and the fair value of $258,890 on 31st December.

Gain/(loss)=$258,890-$252,000=$6890  unrealized gain

The amount would be credited to unrealized gain/(loss) on AFS investments while Valuation Allowance for Available-for-Sale Investments would be debited with the same amount

Granite Construction Company is considering selling excess machinery with a book value of $328,100 (original cost of $449,200 less accumulated depreciation of $121,100) for $222,800, less a 6% brokerage commission. Alternatively, the machinery can be leased for a total of $217,860 for five years, after which it is expected to have no residual value. During the period of the lease, Granite Construction Company’s costs of repairs, insurance, and property tax expenses are expected to be $16,708.
Required:
A. Prepare a differential analysis, dated November 7 to determine whether Granite should lease (Alternative 1) or sell (Alternative 2) the machinery.
B. On the basis of the data presented, would it be advisable to lease or sell the machinery? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

A)

book value = $328,100

net selling cost = $222,800 - 6% = $209,432

net lease revenue = $217,860 - $16,708 = $201,152

Every year, the U.S. Census Bureau conducts an income survey of about 60,000 American families carefully selected to represent the whole population. The data collected help to measure income inequality in the economy. Which of the following causes the census data to inaccurately measure income inequality?
a) Very few people move from one income quintile to another over the years.
b) Higher-income families tend to have more persons to support.
c) In-kind transfers do not add to people's incomes but are counted as income.

Answers

Answer:

c) In-kind transfers do not add to people's incomes but are counted as income.

Explanation:

In the given scenario the aim of the census is to measure income inequality in the population selected.

If however the amount of income earned by individuals is not estimated accurately the results of the study will be inaccurate.

In kind transfers are usually goods and services that a person gets for free of at a reduced rate. They are not considered to be income.

When in kind transfers are counted as income and do not actually add up to income, we cannot get a true picture of income of participants of the income survey.

People who have low income but high in kind transfers will be considered high income earners which is not true.

Robinson believes that its employees provide superior customer service, and through their efforts, Robinson believes it has created $900,000 of goodwill. Should Robinson Company record this goodwill?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Goodwill is defined as the excess in amount of the purchase price of a company over the fair value at acquisition.It is intangible in nature , meaning it can not be physically separated from the other assets. Example are patent , brand name , good employee relation.

1.

Goodwill calculation

Purchase price - $2,500,000

Fair value -          $1,800,000

Goodwill -               $700,000        

2.

No

Under the IAS 36, impairment of assets , goodwill is not amortized but annually tested for impairment as amortization is applicable to intangible assets with a definite useful life while intangible assets with indefinite useful life are annually tested for impairment to evaluate a loss in value experienced.

3

Answers

Answer:

1. It would be more efficient for society to devote more resources to the production of beer.

2. Society is currently devoting the efficient amount of resources to the production of beer.

Explanation:

1. If 4 million kegs of beer are sold, the marginal benefit exceeds marginal cost which means that: the society values this quantity of kegs of beer and would be more beneficial and efficient if the society devote more resources to beer production.

2. If 12 million kegs of beer are sold, where marginal cost equal marginal benefit, it means that this is a good point in which shows an efficient allocation of resources to beer production because the marginal cost of the resources is equal to the marginal benefit of each keg of beer.

If 4 million kegs of beers are sold, marginal benefit exceeds the marginal cost, which means that :

It would be more efficient for society to devote more resources to the production of beers.

Reason :

the advantage of an additional unit of producing a good is more than the cost of producing it.hence it is good to produce more where marginal benefit equals marginal cost.

If 12 million kegs of beers are sold, marginal cost exceeds the marginal benefit, which means that :

It would be more efficient for society to devote fewer resources to the production of beers.

Reason :

the advantage of an additional unit of producing a good is less than the cost of producing it.hence it is good to produce less where marginal benefit equals marginal cost.

Kat Outfitting currently has $22,500 in cash. The company owes $49,500 to suppliers for merchandise and $52,500 to the bank for a long-term loan. Customers owe the company $41,000 for their purchases. The inventory has a book value of $76,800 and an estimated market value of $72,000. If the store compiled a balance sheet as of today, what would be the book value of the current assets?

Answers

Answer:

The book value of the current assets is $140,300

Explanation:

Cash = $22,500

Amount owed by company = $49,500

Amount Owed by Customers = $41,000

Book Value of Inventory  = $76,800

Estimated market value = $72,000

Book Value of Current Assets = Cash + Amount Owed by Customers + Book Value of Inventory

Book Value of Current Assets = $22,500 + $41,000 + $76,800

Book Value of Current Assets = $140,300

Calculate the manufacturing cycle efficiency.

Answers

Answer:

The manufacturing cycle efficiency is 0.219

Explanation:

In order to calculate the manufacturing cycle efficiency we would have to calculate the following formula:

manufacturing cycle efficiency=value added time/throughput time

value added time= 40 min

throughput time=Process time+Inspection time+movie time+Queue time

throughput time=40+5+15+2+120

throughput time=182 min

Therefore, manufacturing cycle efficiency=40/182

manufacturing cycle efficiency=0.219

The manufacturing cycle efficiency is 0.219

Dividends                                         ($12,000)

Retained earnings, Nov. 30, 2017 $35,100

b) The profitability ratios are computed as follows:

1. Profit Margin = (Net Income/Net Sales x 100)

= $32,900/$884,000 x 100

= 3.72%

2. Gross Profit rate = Gross Profit/Net Sales x 100)

= $269,700/$884,000 x 100

= 30.51%

c. If the net sales increases by 15%, the Net sales = $1,016,600 ($884,000 x 1.15)

If Gross profit increases by $40,443, the Gross profit = $310,143 ($269,700 + $40,443)

If Expenses increase by $58,600, the total operating Expenses = $282,400 ($223,800 + $58,600)

Revised Net Income:

Gross Profit                                              $310,143

Income Tax Expense                            ($10,000)

Net Income After Taxes                        $14,743

b) The profitability ratios are computed as follows:

1. Profit Margin = (Net Income/Net Sales x 100)

= $14,743/$1,016,600 x 100

= 1.45%

2. Gross Profit rate = Gross Profit/Net Sales x 100)

= $310,143/$1,016,600 x 100

d. With the proposed changes, the gross profit rate remains the same (without any impact) because the net sales increased by the same rate (15%) as the cost of goods sold and the gross profit.

However, the net income reduced drastically, especially with the income tax remaining the same amount.

Thus, without the income tax effect, there is no merit in this proposal as it reduced the net income margin from 3.72% to 1.45%.

Investment Management Inc. (IMI) uses the capital market line to make asset allocation recommendations. IMI derives the
following forecasts:

• Expected return on the market portfolio: 12%.
• Standard deviation on the market portfolio: 20%.
• Risk-free rate: 5%.

Samuel Johnson seeks 'Ml's advice for a portfolio asset allocation. Johnson informs IMI that he wants the standard deviation of the portfolio to equal half of the standard deviation for the market portfolio. Using the capital market line, what expected return can IMI provide subject to Johnson's risk constraint?

Answers

Answer:

The expected return that IMI can provide subject to Johnson's risk constraint is 8.5%

Explanation:

Capital Market Line (CML)

Expected return on the market portfolio, E([tex]r_m[/tex]) = 12 %

Standard deviation on the market portfolio, σ[tex]_p[/tex] = 20%

Risk-free rate, [tex]r_f[/tex] = 5%

E([tex]r_c[/tex]) =  [tex]r_f[/tex] + [  E([tex]r_p[/tex])  - [tex]r_f[/tex] ] × ( σ[tex]_c[/tex] ÷ σ[tex]_p[/tex])

         = 0.05 + [ 0.12 - 0.05] × (0.10 ÷ 0.20)

= 8.5%

The owner of a small firm has just purchased a personal computer, which she expects will serve her for the next two years. The owner has been told that she "must" buy a surge suppressor to provide protection for her new hardware against possible surges or variations in the electrical current, which have the capacity to damage the computer. The amount of damage to the computer depends on the strength of the surge. It has been estimated that there is a 3% chance of incurring 350 dollar damage, 5% chance of incurring 250 dollar damage, and 12% chance of incurring 100 dollar damage from a surge within the next two years. An inexpensive suppressor, which would provide protection for only one surge, can be purchased. How much should the owner be willing to pay if she makes decisions on the basis of expected value

Answers

Answer:

$35

Explanation:

The computation of the expected value is shown below;

As we know that  

= Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage + Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage + Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage

= 3% × $350 + 5% × $250 + 12% × $100

= $10.5 + $12.5 + $12

= $35

We simply multiplied the estimated chance of damage percentage with the dollar damage and then added the other two so that the expected value could arrive
