Calculation for Urban Bloom, Inc.'s company's up-to-date ending cash balance
Using this formula
Up-to-date ending cash balance = Ending cash balance per books + Interest received from bank - NSF check
Hence:
=16,000+130-220
=15,910
Therefore the company's up-to-date ending cash balance equals: $15,910
Federal Semiconductors issued 11% bonds, dated January 1, with a face amount of $800 million on January 1, 2021. The bonds sold for $739,814,813 and mature on December 31, 2040 (20 years). For bonds of similar risk and maturity the market yield was 12%. Interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Federal determines interest at the effective rate. Federal elected the option to report these bonds at their fair value. On December 31, 2021, the fair value of the bonds was $730 million as determined by their market value in the over-the-counter market. Assume the fair value of the bonds on December 31, 2022 had risen to $736 million.
Required:
1. Prepare the journal entry to record their issuance by Federal on January 1, 2021.
2. Prepare the journal entry to record interest on June 30, 2021 (at the effective rate).
3. Prepare the journal entry to record interest on December 31, 2021 (at the effective rate).
4. At what amount will Federal report the bonds among its liabilities in the December 31, 2021, balance sheet?

(To record payment of semi-annual interest)
4. The amount that Federal will report for the bonds among its liabilities in the December 31, 2021, balance sheet is $740,615,924
Explanation:
1. Discount on bonds payable = $800 million - $739,814,813 = $60,185,187
2. Cash paid = Face value × stated interest × interest time period
= $800,000,000 × 11% × 0.5
= $44,000,000
Interest expense = price of bonds × market interest rate × interest time period
= $739,814,813 × 12% × 0.5
= $44,388,889
Discount on bonds payable = $44,388,889 - $44,000,000 = $388,889
3. Cash paid = Face value × stated interest × interest time period
= $800,000,000 × 11% × 0.5
= $44,000,000
Interest expense = price of bonds × market interest rate × interest time period
= ($739,814,813 + $388,889) × 12% × 0.5
= $ 44,412,222
Discount on bonds payable = $44,412,222 - $44,000,000 = $412,222
4. Long term liabilities = Bonds payable + Discount on bonds payable June 30 + Discount on bonds payable December 31
= $739,814,813 + $388,889 + $412,222
= $740,615,924

Identifying Cost Drivers in an ABC system
Patterson makes electronic components for handheld games and has identified several activities as components of manufacturing overhead: factory rent, factory utilities, quality inspections, materials handling, machine setup, employee training, machine maintenance, inventory security costs, and supervisor salaries. For each activity that Patterson has identified, choose a cost driver to allocate that cost. Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
Factory Rent : No of days worked
Factory Utilities: Units of utility consumed
Quality Inspection : Hours of inspection on production run
Material Handling : No of orders received
Machine Setup : Machine hours
Employee Training : Hours worked
Machine Maintenance : Machine hours used
Inventory Security Costs : Finished goods units
Supervisor Salary : No of workers
Explanation:
A cost driver is unit of activity on which cost is allocated. Cost driver is considered as a direct cause of the cost. In ABC costing cost are allocated to the goods based on the cost drivers.
Flynn Industries has three activity cost pools and two products. It estimates production 3,000 units of Product BC113 and 1,500 of Product AD908. Having identified its activity cost pools and the cost drivers for each pool, Flynn accumulated the following data relative to those activity cost pools and cost drivers.
Annual Overhead Data Estimated Use of Cost Drivers per Product
Activity Cost Pools Cost Drivers Estimated Overhead Estimated Use of Cost Drivers per Activity Product BC113 Product AD908
Machine setup Setups $16,000 40 25 15
Machining Machine hours 110,000 5,000 1,000 4,000
Packing Orders 30,000 500 150 350
Required:
Prepare a schedule showing the computations Of the activity-based Overhead rates per cost driver.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Machine setup Setups $16,000 40 25 15
Machining Machine hours $110,000 5,000 1,000 4,000
Packing Orders $30,000 500 150 350
To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Machine setup= 16,000/(40+25+15)= $200 per setup
Machining= 110,000/ (5,000 + 1,000 + 4,000= $11 per machine hour
Packing= 30,000/ (500 + 150 + 350)= $30 per order

Subsequently,the expired the portion of the prepayment would be removed from the account,hence point B is also correct.
Finally,when the expired portion is removed from prepaid insurance account,it is transferred to insurance expense account,point C is also on point.
"Nelson Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. The cost savings from the equipment would result in an annual increase in cash flow of $100,000. The equipment will have an initial cost of $400,000 and have a 5-year life. If the salvage value of the equipment is estimated to be $75,000, what is the payback period
Answer:
4 years
Explanation:
Payback period calculates the amount of the time it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flow.
Payback period = amount invested / annual cash flows
= $400,000 / $100,000 = 4 years

Dexter Consulting, Inc. recently reported the following information: Net income = $395,000 Sales = $700,000 Total Assets = $1.5 million Tax rate = 21% Interest expense = 13,000 Accounts Payable = 74,000 Notes Payable = 900,000 Accruals = 12,000 After-tax cost of capital = 10% What is the company’s EVA?
Answer:
$170,650
Explanation:
economic value added (EVA) = NOPAT – (WACC x capital invested)
NOPAT = net operating profits after taxWACC = weighted average cost of capitalcapital invested = assets - current liabilitiesNOPAT = net income x (1 - 21%) = $395,000 x 0.79 = $312,050
WACC = 10%
capital invested = $1,500,000 - $74,000 (accounts payable) - $12,000 (accruals) = $1,414,000
EVA = $312,050 - (10% x $1,414,000) = $312,050 - $141,400 = $170,650
Because transit tends to be congested in this country, many people prefer to shop in their local neighborhoods. They tend to go to stores several times a week to get what they need rather than making one big trip less frequently. Since the culture of this company is very network oriented, shoppers expect a trip to the store to involve significant interaction with store employees. Shoppers are also used to good deals and haggling for better prices. A U.S. store opens in this country and exhibits the following characteristics. Which of these characteristics will be problematic for the success of the store?
A) A few large flagship stores located in big cities
B) Product experts on the floor to answer customers' questions
C) Store locations easy to access via public transit
D) High-end pricing
E) Products available individually rather than in bulk
Answer: A few large flagship stores located in big cities; High-end pricing( Option A and D)
Explanation:
Because the people in this country usually shop close to their home, it would not be wise for a business to opt for few large flagship stores rather than a larger number of the smaller stores.
It would also be unwise for such business to sell mainly high-end products because the shoppers are used to good deals and haggling. Such company would be smart, to sell the products individually, because bulk purchases would make little sense for people that make frequent trips to the store.
Also, in a country with a congested transportation, an easy-to-access store locations will be important and having product experts on the floor who answers the questions of customers’ would appeal to network-oriented local culture.
A semi-variable cost:
A. Increases and decreases directly and proportionately with changes in volume.
B. Changes in response to a change in volume, but not proportionately.
C. Increases if volume increases, but remains constant if volume decreases.
D. Changes inversely in response to a change in volume.
Answer:
B. Changes in response to a change in volume, but not proportionately.
Explanation:
A semi variable cost (or mixed cost) is a cost or expense that is partially fixed (does not change according to production output) and is also partially variable (changes according to production output). An example of semi variable costs are utilities which have a fixed minimum level per month and they increase as production output increases. Another example is the cost of a car, where insurance and lease payments are fixed but gas and maintenance expenses vary according to the number of miles driven.
Playful Pens, Inc., makes a single model of a pen. The cartridge for the pen (which contains the ink) is manufactured on one machine. The cartridge holder (which you hold when you use the pen)is manufactured on another machine. Monthly capacities and production levels are as follows:
Machine 1 (Cartridge) Machine 2 (Holders)
Monthly capacity 1,000,000 800,000
Monthly production 800,000 800,000
The company could sell 1,000,000 pens per month. The units (cartridge inside of holder) sell for $10.40 each and have a variable cost of $4.10 each. Fixed costs are $4,200,000 per month.
Required:
a. Is there a bottleneck at Playful Pens on Machine 1 or Machine 2?
A. Machine 1
B. Machine 2
b. Playful Pens's production supervisors state they could increase machine 2's capacity by 200,000 per month by producing holders on the weekend. Producing on the weekend would not affect the sales price. Variable cost per unit would increase by $1.10 for those produced on the weekend because of the premium paid to labor. Fixed costs would also increase by $820,000 per month.
b-1. Calculate the differential operating profit (loss). (Losses and amounts to be deducted should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Differential Revenues
Differntial costs:
Variable
Fixed
b-2. Should Playful Pens produce holders on the weekend?
Yes
No
c. Independent of the situation in requirement (b), Playful Pens could expand the capability of machine 2 by adding additional workers to perform ongoing maintenance. This would increase its capacity by 100,000 holders per month. This would not affect sales price or fixed costs, but would increase variable cost to $4.62 per unit for all units produced.
c-1. Calculate the differential operating profit (loss). (Losses and amounts to be deducted should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Differential revenues
Differential costs:
Variable cost increase on current production:
Variable cost on new production:
c-2. Should Playful Pens expand Machine 2's capability by adding these additional workers?
Yes
No
Answer:
a) B. Machine 2
b) $220,000
b-2) Yes , positive differential profit.
c-1) $162,000
c-2) Yes , positive differential profit.
Explanation:
B) Differential revenues = $10.40 x 200,000 = $2,080,000
Differential costs:
Variable cost on new production = $5.20 x 200,000 = $1,040,000
Fixed costs = $820,000
differential profit = $2,080,000 - $1,040,000 - $820,000 = $220,000
c) Differential revenues = $10.40 x 100,000 = $1,040,000
Differential costs:
Variable cost increase on current production = ($4.62 - $4.10) x 800,000 = $416,000
Variable cost on new production = $4.62 x 100,000 = $462,000
differential profit = $1,040,000 - $878,000 = $162,000
Cherokee Inc. is a merchandiser that provided the following information: Amount Number of units sold 13,000 Selling price per unit $ 16 Variable selling expense per unit $ 2 Variable administrative expense per unit $ 3 Total fixed selling expense $ 21,000 Total fixed administrative expense $ 15,000 Beginning merchandise inventory $ 11,000 Ending merchandise inventory $ 25,000 Merchandise purchases $ 88,000 Required: 1. Prepare a traditional income statement. 2. Prepare a contribution format income statement.
Answer:
1. Gross margin is $134,00; and Net profit is $33,000.
2. Contribution margin is $69,000; and Net profit is $33,000.
Explanation:
To prepare the statements, the following calculations are done first:
Sales revenue = Number of units sold * Selling price per unit = 13,000 * $16 = $208,000
Variable selling expenses = Number of units sold * Variable selling expense per unit = 13,000 * $2 = $26,000
Total selling expenses = Variable selling expenses + Total fixed selling expense = $26,000 + $21,000 = $47,000
Variable administrative expense = Number of units sold * Variable administrative expense per unit = 13,000 * $3 = $39,000
Total administrative expense = Variable administrative expense + Total fixed administrative expense = $39,000 + $15,000 = $54,000
Cost of goods sold = Beginning merchandise inventory + Merchandise purchases - Ending merchandise inventory = $11,000 + $88,000 - $25,000 = $74,000
The statements are now prepared as follows:
1. Prepare a traditional income statement.
The purpose of the traditional income statement is to obtain the gross margin and the net profit. These can be obtained as follows:

Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Amount Number of units sold 13,000
Selling price per unit $16
Variable selling expense per unit $2
Variable administrative expense per unit $3
Total fixed selling expense $21,000
Total fixed administrative expense $15,000
Beginning merchandise inventory $11,000
Ending merchandise inventory $25,000
Merchandise purchases $88,000
First, we need to calculate the cost of goods sold:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory
COGS= 11,000 + 88,000 - 25,000= 74,000
1) Traditional income statement:
Sales= 13,000*16= 208,000
COGS= (74,000)
Gross profit= 134,000
Total selling expense= (2*13,000) + 21,000= (47,000)
Total administrative expense= (3*13,000) + 15,000= (54,000)
Net operating income= 33,000
2) Contribution format income statement:
Total variable cost= (3 + 2)*13,000 + 74,000= $139,000
Sales= 208,000
Total variable cost= (139,000)
Contribution margin= 69,000
Total fixed selling expense= (21,000)
Total fixed administrative expense= (15,000)
Net operating income= 33,000
completion. Item8 Part 5 of 5 10 points Return to questionItem 8Item 8 Part 5 of 5 10 points Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] In 2021, the Westgate Construction Company entered into a contract to construct a road for Santa Clara County for $10,000,000. The road was completed in 2023. Information related to the contract is as follows: 2021 2022 2023 Cost incurred during the year $ 2,542,000 $ 3,772,000 $ 2,074,600 Estimated costs to complete as of year-end 5,658,000 1,886,000 0 Billings during the year 2,020,000 4,294,000 3,686,000 Cash collections during the year 1,810,000 3,800,000 4,390,000 Westgate recognizes revenue over time according to percentage of completion. 5. Calculate the amount of revenue and gross profit (loss) to be recognized in each of the three years assuming the following costs incurred and costs to complete information. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount. Loss amounts should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of amount of revenue and gross profit (loss) to be recognized in each of the three years is shown below:-
Sales revenue for the present period for 2021 = $31,00,000.00
Sales revenue for the present period for 2022 = $46,00,000.00
Sales revenue for the present period for 2023 = $23,00,000.00
Gross Profit for year 2021 = $5,58,000.00
Gross profit for year 2022 = $8,28,000.00
Gross profit for year 2023 = $2,25,400.00
To reach the sales revenue we simply deduct the Sales revenue recognized in previous period from Sales revenue recognized till date for 3 years on the other hand to compute the gross profit we simply deduct the Cost incurred during the year from Sales revenue for the present period for 3 years.
For clarification we attached the spreadsheet to reach the sales revenue and gross profit for 3 years.
Payback period was the earliest -Select- selection criterion. The -Select- is a "break-even" calculation in the sense that if a project's cash flows come in at the expected rate, the project will break even. The equation is:
Answer: 1. Capital Budgeting
2. Payback Period
3. Number of Years Prior to Full Recovery + (Unrecovered Cost at Start of Year / Cash flow during the year)
Explanation:
Payback period was the earliest Capital Budgeting selection criterion. The Payback Period is a "break-even" calculation in the sense...
The Payback period is one of the most simple methods in Capital Budgeting and the earliest as well. It simply checked how long it would take to pay back an investment which made it very alluring to investors who wanted to know how long it would be till they started getting a profit.
It therefore essentially checked when the project would Break-Even.
The formula is,
Number of Years Prior to Full Recovery + (Unrecovered Cost at Start of Year / Cash flow during the year)
This means that to calculate the Payback Period, for example, say the investment was $500 and the project brought in $120 for 5 years.
That would mean that in year 4 it would have brought it $480. Year 4 is the Number of Years prior to Full recovery.
The $20 left is the Unrecovered cost at the start of the year and the Cashflow for the year is $120. The Payback is therefore,
= 4 + (20/120)
= 4.17
Inventory records for Dunbar Incorporated revealed the following: Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Apr. 1 Beginning inventory 490 $ 2.49 Apr. 20 Purchase 410 2.72 Dunbar sold 600 units of inventory during the month. Ending inventory assuming FIFO would be
Answer:
$816
Explanation:
Calculation for Dunbar Incorporated Ending inventory
Formula for Ending inventory units using FIFO method:
Ending inventory units = Beginning balance + Purchase -sales
Leg plug in the formula
490+410 - 600
= 300units
Calculation for Ending inventory
Ending inventory = 300*2.72
= $816
Therefore the Ending inventory assuming FIFO method is use would be $816
The Caraway Seed Company grows heirloom tomatoes and sells their seeds. The heirloom tomato plants are preferred by many growers for their superior flavor. At the end of the most recent year the firm had current assets of $49,700, net fixed assets of $248,300, current liabilities of $28,400, and long-term debt of $101,600.
A. Calculate Caraway's stockholders' equity.B. What is the firm's net working capital?
Answer:
A.
$168,000
B.
$21,300
Explanation:
A.
As per accounting equation
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
Equity = Assets - Liabilities
Placing values in the equation
Equity = ( Current assets + Net Fixed Assets ) - ( Current Liabilities + Long term debt )
Equity = ( $49,700 + 248,300 ) - ( 28,400 + 101,600)
Equity = $168,000
B.
Net Working capital is the net of current assets and current liabilities of the company.
Use following formula of net working capital
Net working capital = Current assets - current liabilities
Net working capital = $49,700 - 28,400
Net working capital = $21,300
Marigold Corp. budgeted costs for 70000 linear feet of block are: Fixed manufacturing costs$24000 per month Variable manufacturing costs$16 per linear foot Marigold installed 40000 linear feet of block during March. How much is budgeted total manufacturing costs in March
Answer:
$664,000
Explanation:
The computation of the total budgeted manufacturing cost is shown below:
Total manufacturing costs = Variable manufacturing cost + Fixed manufacturing cost
= ($16 × 40,000 units ) + $24,000
= $664,000
We simply added the variable manufacturing cost and the Fixed manufacturing cost so that the total budgeted manufacturing cost could come and the same is to be considered

g Suppose that more British decide to vacation in the U.S. and that the British purchase more U.S. Treasury bonds. Ignoring how payments are made for these purchases, a. the first action by itself raises U.S. net exports, the second action by itself raises U.S. net capital outflow. b. the first action by itself raises U.S. net exports, the second action by itself lowers U.S. net capital outflow. c. the first action by itself lowers U.S. net exports, the second action by itself raises U.S. net capital outflow. d. the first action by itself lowers U.S. net exports, the second action by itself lowers U.S. net capital outflow.
Answer:
b. the first action by itself raises U.S. net exports, the second action by itself lowers U.S. net capital outflow.
Explanation:
Net exports are equal to the difference between the value of a nation's total export of goods, services and the value of all the goods and services it imports.
U.S. net export raises as more British decide to vacation in the U.S. and U.S. net capital outflow reduces as the British purchase more U.S. Treasury bonds.
So, option b is correct.
Elaborate on any three internal factors of Jessops’ Group Limited that can influence its functioning
Answer:
The internal factors are factors that are under the control of the company and these can be tangible or intangible in nature.
Explanation:
Examples of three internal factors of Jessops’ Group Limited that can influence its functioning are:
1. Assets of the company: the company has over 200 stores around the UK, and also has an online shop and call center. This will make the company to serve a wide base of customers which can increase the revenue of the UK’s premier photographic retailer.
2. Photo and imaging business: This is a business line which is a key part of the company's product portfolio. The decision of the company to focus its attention on making its imaging business the market leader is because of the stability in its margins during the 2008–09 economic recession in the UK.
3. Participation and investment in social responsibility: The response of the company to the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) regulations on the disposal of electronic goods at the end of their life by contributing towards a national fund to assist local councils to develop collection facilities for electronic goods is an example of social responsibility. The creation of a convenient battery recycling points in its stores and effort to increase awareness of the WEEE regulations are part of social responsibility functions that will be seen more favorably by consumers. This can therefore increase the sales of the company.

BJT Corporation is owned 40 percent by Bill, 30 percent by Jack, and 30 percent by the Trumpet Partnership. Bill and Jack are father and son. Jack has a 10 percent interest in Trumpet Partnership. What is Jack’s total direct and constructive ownership of BJT Corporation under Section 267?
Answer:

Billy-Bob owns a condo in Seattle, and a farm in Yakima. His older brother, Bobby-Lee, has some severe health problems and is unable to work anymore, and just has Social Security Disability income of about $800/month. Billy-Bob records a deed giving a "life estate" to Bobby-Lee as long as he lives, with the "remainder" to go to Billy-Bob’s sister, Judy. A. Bobby-Lee now owns the "fee simple" title to the property, as long as he lives. B. Once Bobby-Lee dies, Judy will own the "fee simple" title to the property. C. No one will own the "fee simple" title to the property.
Answer: B. Once Bobby-Lee dies, Judy will own the "fee simple" title to the property.
Explanation:
In the Life Estate arrangement, a person is granted use and ownership of a property for as long as they are alive. When they die however, if a Remainder also known as Remainder- man is named, then the property rights transfer to the Remainder- man.
The Remainder-man then gets access to the property and owns in to the highest extent of the law which in common law countries such as the United States, is the Fee Simple title ownership. This gives them the right to basically do what they want with the property.
Bobby-Lee therefore gets the rights to the property but once he dies, his sister Judy will own a fee simple title to the property.
Homeowners enjoy many benefits, including a federal tax deduction for state and local property taxes paid. Fishers, Indiana, was voted one of the top 100 best places to live in 2017 by Money magazine. With population of 86,357, a median home price of $236,167, and estimated property taxes at 10.6 mills, how much does the average homeowner pay in property taxes?
Answer:
The average homeowner pay $2,503.37 in property taxes

Estimated property taxes = 10.6 mills
Property Tax 1 Mills equals to 1/1000 Units . That Means Property tax Need to pay $1 For $1000 Assets able value .
Average homeowner pay in property taxes = Home Price × (Mills ÷ 1000)
= $236,167 × (10.6 ÷ 1000)
= $236,167 × 0.0106
=$2,503.37

Consider a hypothetical closed economy in which households spend $0.60 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.40. The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) for this economy is0.6 , and the spending multiplier for this economy is . Suppose the government in this economy decides to increase government purchases by $400 billion. The increase in government purchases will lead to an increase in income, generating an initial change in consumption equal to . This increases income yet again, causing a second change in consumption equal to . The total change in demand resulting from the initial change in government spending is .
Answer:
The total change in demand resulting from the initial change in government spending is $1,000 billion
Explanation:
Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) = As with every additional increase in income, consumption increases by 0.60.
MPC = change in Consumption / Change in Income = [tex]\Delta C/\Delta Y[/tex]
[tex]\Delta C/\Delta Y[/tex] = 0.60 / 1
MPC = 0.60.
Spending or Expenditure Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - MPC)
Spending Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - 0.6) = 1 ÷ 0.4 = 2.5.
The consumption will increase by MPC, with 1 dollar increased, consumption increased by 0.60
Therefore, with $400 billion increase, Consumption will increase by 0.60 × 400 billion = $240 billion.
This increases income, causing a change in consumption at second times equal $240 billion × 0.6 = $144 billion.
The total change in income by this increment in government spending equals as:
Change in Demand = Multiplier × change in G
Change in Demand= $400 billion × 2.5 = $1,000 billion.
The total change in demand resulting from the initial change in government spending is $1,000 billion
Marginal propensity to consume = change in Consumption / Change in Income
Marginal propensity to consume = 0.60 / 1
Marginal propensity to consume = 0.60
Spending Multiplier = 1 / (1 - MPC)
Spending Multiplier = 1 / (1 - 0.6)
Spending Multiplier = 1 / 0.4
Spending Multiplier = 2.5.
Consumption will increase = 0.60 × 400 billion
Consumption will increase = $240 billion.
Consumption will increase second time = $240 billion × 0.6
Consumption will increase second time = $144 billion.
Change in Demand = Multiplier × Spending Multiplier
Change in Demand = $400 billion × 2.5
Change in Demand = $1,000 billion
