Answer 1

ANSWER: The data collected is NOT an appropriate representation that can be used to determine how much you should sell your house.

EXPLANATION: A house is evaluated by the contents which were used to build it. For instance a house built with a bricks can not be of the same value with a wood or block house, even though they have the same pattern.

Because the data does not show the values of the contents of the house, which are: walls, pattern, designs, how many stirs, roof, and interior quality, it cannot be used to determine the price you should sell your house.

Also, looking at the data gotten, you can understand that this houses has been sold according to the contents that made up the building, because some old builder were sold more costlier than some new buildings, and some building with a much bigger square feet were sold in a lower price when compared to some buildings with a smaller square feet

Data related to the inventories of Kimzey Medical Supply are presented below: Surgical Equipment $ 260 170 Surgical Supplies $ 120 Selling price Cost Replacement cost Costs to sell Normal gross profit ratio 90 Rehab Equipment $ 340 250 235 25 30 % Rehab Supplies $ 165 162 158 240 80 30 30% 10 30 % 20 % In applying the lower of cost or market rule, the inventory of surgical equipment would be valued at:_________
A) $170.
B) $152.
C) $230.
D) $240.

Answers

Answer: A) $170

Explanation:

In applying the Lower of Cost or Market Value, inventory is valued at the amount that is lower between the current market value or the cost of the inventory and recorded in the balance sheet.

Market Value can be calculated as the current value minus the cost to sell.

From the above question, the value of the Surgical Equipment is $260 and the cost to sell is $30.

That means that the Market Value is,

= 260 - 30

= $230

This figure is larger than the cost of the Surgical Equipment which is $170 so to record the inventory according to the Lower of cost or market rule, the $170 is picked as it is lower.

g You currently hold an inflation-indexed bond, which pays out real coupons of 10% per year, starting one year from now. The bond has a real face value of $600, and will mature three years from today. If inflation over the next year will be 2% per year for the next three years, what will be the total nominal payment you will receive at the date of maturity

Answers

Answer:

$618 dollars

Explanation:

The beginning face value will be our starting position: $600

Then, we have a 2 percent increase over the next three years

this makes for a principal at maturity of:

600 x (1 + 2% x 3 years ) = $618

This makes each coupon return in coins to also increase over time as, they are calcualted based on the adjusted face vale. This method iguarantee the 10% return on the bond regardless of inflation during the period.

A company reported total assets at the end of 2017 of $95,000; including cash of $35,000, accounts receivable of $20,000, and inventory of $40,000. It reported total assets at the end of 2018 of $110,000; including cash of $44,000; accounts receivable of $29,000, and inventory of $37,000. Compute the net increase or decrease in cash in 2018. Decrease of $9,000 Increase of $15,000 Increase of $9,000 Decrease of $15,000

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is increase of $9,000

Explanation:

The increase or decrease in cash in 2018 could be determined by using the formula below which is coined from the statement of cash flow:

Cash at the end of the year=cash at the beginning plus +increase in cash

cash at the end of 2018 is $44,000 whereas cash at the beginning which is the same at closing balance of 2017 is $35,000

$44,000=$35,000+increase in cash

increase in cash =$44,000-$35,000

increase in cash in 2018=$9,000

You want to have $1.5 million in real dollars in a retirement account when you retire in 40 years. The inflation rate is 2.7% and the nominal rate of return on your investment is 10%. What real amount must you deposit each year in the account to achieve your goal?

Answers

Answer:

Annual deposit= $6,952.82

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

You want to have $1.5 million in real dollars in a retirement account when you retire in 40 years.

Inflation rate= 2.7%

Interest rate= 10%

First, we need to deduct from the interest rate the inflation rate.

Real interest rate= 0.10 - 0.027= 0.073

Now, using the following formula, we can determine the annual deposit:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (1,500,000*0.073) / [(1.073^40)-1]

A= $6,952.82

Suppose that the government spending multiplier is 3.2 and the tax multiplier is 2.9. This means that, if prices are constant, a $200 billion rise in government spending will __________________, and a $200 billion cut in taxes will _____________________.

Answers

Answer:

At constant prices, a $200 billion rise in government spending will increase Real GDP by 640 billion

and;

A $200 billion cut in taxes will increase real GDP by 580 billion

Explanation:

Government spending multiplier = 3.2

Tax multiplier = 2.9

Mathematically;

ΔY/ΔG = 3.2

ΔY/200 = 3.2

ΔY = 200 * 3.2

ΔY = 640 billion

Cut in taxes;

Tax multiplier = 2.9

ΔY/ΔT = 2.9

ΔY/200 = 2.9

ΔY = 2.9 * 200

ΔY = 580 billion

Explanation:

1) Corporation management means that experts can be hired as managers.  On the other hand, the managers may not act in the best interest of the owners, even though, they are legally required to do so.

2) Limited liability of stockholders, government regulations, and additional taxes are the major disadvantages of a corporation.  Limited liability of stockholders may be a disadvantage to non-stockholders, but it is an advantage for stockholders, who will not be required to contribute more money to offset liabilities of the corporation in the event of liquidation.  Since corporations are distinct persons in law, they also need to be regulated and taxed as separate persons.  So, this is not a disadvantage.  It is only a consequence of being separate entity, like all individuals.

3) Organization costs include legal payments, state and federal registration, and incorporation fees, promotions, and charges associated with the underwriting of stocks and bonds. Organization costs can be classified as assets on the company's balance sheet.

4) A share in a company's stock accords some rights on the holder as itemized above.

5) The number of issued shares may be equal to or less than the authorized shares.  Some companies do not issue all the shares that they are authorized to issue at the same time.

6) Authorization of capital stock does not require a journal entry.  A memorandum record of the authorization is instead maintained to show the number of authorized capital shares and the par value.

7) There is no question 7.

8) Initial public offerings are made directly to investors.  The stock exchange market caters for the exchange of shares among investors.  The company is not involved and does not take any financial record, except the register of shareholders.

9) The market price of shares may be more or less than the par value.  The market price is determined by investors, who exchange shares at arm's length in the stock exchange market.  The par value is determined by those authorizing the issue of shares.

10) Retained Earnings are the income generated by the corporation which have not been distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends.

City Auto Parts recently traded in store fixtures. The exchange had commercial substance. The old fixtures had a cost of $48,000 and accumulated depreciation of $14,000. City paid $101,000 for the new store fixtures. These new fixtures had a market value of $117,000. There is a loss of $18,000 on this exchange.True or False

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is true

Explanation:

The book value of the old fixtures at the date of exchange which is the cost less accumulated depreciation till date is computed thus:

Book value of old fixtures=$48,000-$14,000=$34000

Expected cash payable by the company for the new fixtures is the market value of the new fixtures minus the carrying value of the old fixtures.

Expected cash=$117,000-$34,000=$83,000.00  

Loss on the exchange =cash paid -expected cash payable=$101,000-$83,000=$18000

Answers

Answer:

If financial statements are prepared on January 31, the journal entry to record the adjustment would be debit rent expense and credit prepaid rent for $1,250

Explanation:

According to the given data the rent has been expired for one month so only one month's rent expense will be recorded. Therefore to calculate one month's rent expense we have to make the following calculation:

one month's rent=Total rent/period for which rent is paid*1

one month's rent=$15,000/12*1

one month's rent=$1,250

Therefore, If financial statements are prepared on January 31, the journal entry to record the adjustment would be debit rent expense and credit prepaid rent for $1,250

The accounting rate of return (ARR) is the proportion of the average investment that is earned as profit.

ARR = average operating income/ Average investment

Average income =( 55,000 + 40,000 + 35,000 + 30,000)/4=40,000

Average investment  = initial cost + salvage value/2

                                 = 1,000,000 + 200,000/2 = 600,000

ARR = 40,000/600,000 × 100= 6.67

Accounting rate of return = 6.67%

Explanation:

A firm's bonds have a maturity of 14 years with a $1,000 face value, have an 8% semiannual coupon, are callable in 7 years at $1,073.00, and currently sell at a price of $1,135.93. What are their nominal yield to maturity and their nominal yield to call? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

YTM = 6.51%

YTC = 6.40%

Explanation:

We need to solve using excel goal seek or bond formulas to generate the yield (interest rate) which matches the future couponb and maturity payment with the current selling price of the bond:

Present value of the coupon

[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]

C 40.000 (1,000 x 8% / 2 payment per year)

time 28 (14 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.032529972 (generate using goal seek tool)

[tex]40 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0325299719911398)^{-28} }{0.0325299719911398} = PV\\[/tex]

PV $727.8688

Pv of the maturity (lump sum)

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity   1,000.00

time   28.00

rate  0.032529972

[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.0325299719911398)^{28} } = PV[/tex]  

PV   408.06

PV c $727.8688

PV m  $408.0612

Total $1,135.9300

As this is a semiannual rate we multiply it by 2

0.032529972 x 2 = 0.065059944 = 6.51%

We repeat the procedure with changing the time and end-value to adjust for the callabe conditions:

[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]

C 40.000

time 14 (7 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.032015131

[tex]40 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0320151313225188)^{-14} }{0.0320151313225188} = PV\\[/tex]

PV $445.6984

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity   1,073.00 (call price)

time   14.00

rate  0.032015131

[tex]\frac{1073}{(1 + 0.0320151313225188)^{14} } = PV[/tex]  

PV   690.23

PV c $445.6984

PV m  $690.2316

Total $1,135.9300

Againg his will be a semiannual rate so we multiply by two:

0.032015131 x 2 = 0.064030263 = 6.40%

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?

a. $522 repayment of a loan from an employee. Firm B loaned $500 to the employee six months ago, and the employee repaid the loan with interest.

b. $600 deposit from a customer who rented mechanical equipment. Firm B must return the entire deposit when the customer returns the undamaged equipment.

c. $10,000 short-term loan from a local bank. Firm B gave the bank a written note to repay the loan in one year at 9 percent interest.

d. $888 prepaid rent from the customer described in part b. The rent is $12 per day for the 74-day period from December 17 through February 28.

Answers

Answer:

a. $522 repayment of a loan from an employee. Firm B loaned $500 to the employee six months ago, and the employee repaid the loan with interest.

Firm B should recognize $22 as interest income.

b. $600 deposit from a customer who rented mechanical equipment. Firm B must return the entire deposit when the customer returns the undamaged equipment.

The deposit cannot be recognized as income since it is a liability.

c. $10,000 short-term loan from a local bank. Firm B gave the bank a written note to repay the loan in one year at 9 percent interest.

Interests ($900) will be recognized when they are actually paid for in 1 year. No accrued interests must be reported on the balance sheet (December 31).

d. $888 prepaid rent from the customer described in part b. The rent is $12 per day for the 74-day period from December 17 through February 28.

The $888 will be recognized as revenue during the current year.

Explanation:

When a taxpayer is a cash basis taxpayer, it will only report income and expenses that are actually collected or paid for respectively. All accounts receivable or accounts payable are not considered revenues nor expenses.

Compared with diversification based on intangible resources, diversification based on financial resources is: a. less imitable and more likely to create value on a long-term basis. b. more imitable and less likely to create value on a long-term basis. c. less imitable and less likely to create value on a long-term basis. d. more imitable and more likely to create value on a long-term basis.

Answers

Answer:

b. more imitable and less likely to create value on a long-term basis.

Explanation:

In Finance, diversification can be defined as an investment technique that focuses on distributing capital or portfolio across various investments.

Basically, the aim of adopting a diversification is to lessen or mitigate the degree of uncertainty of the portfolio by enhancing its high long-term returns.

Diversification helps financial experts or investors to complement or annul the losses associated with an asset class by the benefits of another asset class in a portfolio.

Compared with diversification based on intangible resources, diversification based on financial resources is more imitable or copied by rivals in the industry and less likely to create value on a long-term basis.

Diversification based on intangible resources, includes intellectual property, brand recognition, human resources, patents, customer lists, trademarks, copyrights, and goodwill etc.

Diversification based on financial resources, includes shares, money, bond, gold, debentures, checks, and promissory notes.

During the​ year, direct labor costs of​ $30,000 were​ incurred, manufacturing overhead totaled ​$42,000, materials purchased were​ $27,000, and selling and administrative costs were​ $22,000. Champagne sold​ 25,000 units of product during the year at a sales price of​ $5.00 per unit. What were the total manufacturing costs for the year assuming ​$2 comma 080 of indirect materials were used during the​ period?

Answers

Answer:

Using the models for total manufacturing cost that includes just direct labour costs, direct materials cost and overhead costs, total manufacturing cost = $99,000

Using the model that includes selling and administrative costs & indirect materials cost, total manufacturing cost = $123,080

Explanation:

Total manufacturing cost is a sum of the amount of cost incurred by a business to produce goods in a reporting period.

It usually consists of direct labour costs, direct materials cost and overhead costs.

In some models, the selling and administrative costs & cost of indirect materials are included.

Direct labour cost = $30,000

Manufacturing overhead costs = $42,000

Direct materials cost = $27,000

Total manufacturing cost = 30000 + 42000 + 27000 = $99,000

Selling and Administrative costs = $22,000

Indirect materials cost = $2,080

Total materials cost including selling and administrative costs & indirect materials cost = 99000 + 22000 + 2080 = $123,080

Answers

Answer:

4.62  years

8.02%

Explanation:

The payback period is the number of years it would take the investment to recoup itself.

Payback=initial capital outlay/annual cash flow

initial capital outlay is the cost of the new  machine plus installation cost minus the salvage value of the old machine.

initial capital outlay=$40,070+$1,200-$2,000=$ 39,270.00

Annual cash flow is the reduction in operating costs of $8,500 per year

payback =$ 39,270.00/$8,500.00=4.62  years

The internal rate of return is computed in the attached

 

The new growth theory states that A. technological advances are the responsibility of the government. B. the subsistence level income leads to technological advances. C. technological advances are the result of discoveries and choices. D. it is impossible to replicate production activities. E. technological advances are the result of random chance.

Answers

Answer:

C. technological advances are the result of discoveries and choices.

Explanation:

The new growth theory was developed by a man named med Paul Romer. This new growth theory stresses the role which is determined by human choices.

The new growth theory states that technological advances are the result of discoveries and choices, rather than random choices. It explains the fact that new innovations and technological advancement are not the result of random chance, but they occur as a result of humans and their desire for new innovations.

Therefore option C is correct

Minstrel Manufacturing uses a job order costing system. During one month, Minstrel purchased $201,000 of raw materials on credit; issued materials to production of $198,000 of which $27,000 were indirect. Minstrel incurred a factory payroll of $153,000, of which $37,000 was indirect labor. Minstrel uses a predetermined overhead application rate of 150% of direct labor cost. If Minstrel incurred total overhead costs of $180,000 during the month, compute the amount of under- or overapplied overhead:

Answers

Answer:

Underapplied overhead=  $6,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct labor= $153,000 - $37,000= $116,000

The predetermined overhead application rate= 150% of direct labor cost.

Actual overhead= $180,000

First, we need to allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 116,000*1.5= $174,000

Now, we can calculate the over/under allocation:

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead= 180,000 - 174,000

Under/over applied overhead=  $6,000 underallocated

Wings Co. budgeted $572,000 manufacturing direct wages, 2,500 direct labor hours, and had the following manufacturing overhead: Overhead Cost Pool Budgeted Overhead Cost Budgeted Level for Cost Driver Overhead Cost Driver Materials handling $ 196,000 4,900 pounds Weight of materials Machine setup 19,600 560 setups Number of setups Machine repair 1,600 32,000 machine hours Machine hours Inspections 16,500 330 inspections Number of inspections Requirements for Job #971 which manufactured 4 units of product: Direct labor 20 hours Direct materials 220 pounds Machine setup 30 setups Machine hours 16,700 machine hours Inspections 15 inspections The total overhead of Job #971 under the ABC costing is:

Answers

Answer:

Total allocated overhead= $11,435

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Materials handling $196,000 4,900 pounds

Machine setup $19,600 560 setups  

Machine repair $1,600 32,000 machine hours

Inspections $16,500 330 inspections

Job 971

Direct labor 20 hours

Direct materials 220 pounds

Machine setup 30 setups

Machine hours 16,700 machine hours

Inspections 15 inspections

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate for each activity:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Materials handling= 196,000/4,900= $40 per pound

Machine setup= 19,600/560= $35 per setup  

Machine repair= 1,600/32,000= $0.05 per machine hour

Inspections= 16,500/330= $50 per inspection

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Materials handling= 40*220= 8,800

Machine setup= 35*30= 1,050  

Machine repair= 0.05*16,700=835

Inspections= 50*15= 750

Total allocated overhead= $11,435

From the choice of simple moving average, weighted moving average, exponential smoothing, and linear regression analysis, which forecasting technique would you consider the most accurate? Why? (Ch. 18)

Answers

Answer:

weighted moving average

Explanation:

Of all these 4 options, the weighted moving average is the most accurate, as it is possible to place specific weights according to their significance.

The other techniques, such as an average, straight line, or exponential curve, assume things. The weighted average can change to any form.

However, the weighted average can be complicated to use if a long time frame is taken.

Additionally, the consumer will most likely want to adjust the weights as time periods pass. That will contribute to the complexity of applying the methods to a wide range of applications, such as predicting inventory item demand.

Hence, the first option is correct

You own a portfolio that has a total value of $130,000 and a beta of 1.28. You have another $49,000 to invest and you would like the beta of your portfolio to decrease to 1.18. What does the beta of the new investment have to be in order to accomplish this

Answers

Answer:βB =0.9147=beta of new investment

Explanation:

Total investment= $130,000 + $49,000=  $179,000

Using

Portfolio beta(βp) = wA × βA + wB × βB

Where βp is the portfolio beta coefficient,

wA is the weight of the first investment,

βA is the beta coefficient of first investment;

wB is the weight of the second investment,

βB is the beta coefficient of second investment

but weight of investment is  stock value/ total investment x 100

wA= 130,000/ 179,000X 100=72.63%

WB= 49,000/179,000 X100=27.374%

Portfolio beta(βp) = wA × βA + wB × βB

1.18=(72.63%*1.28)+(27.374% XβB  )  

1.18=0.9296+0.27374βB  

βB i=(1.18-0.9298)/0.27374

βB =0.9147=beta of new investment

On May 31 of the current year, the assets and liabilities of Riser, Inc. are as follows: Cash $16,800; Accounts Receivable, $7,050; Supplies, $700; Equipment, $11,750; Accounts Payable, $9,000. What is the amount of owner's equity as of May 31 of the current year?

Answers

Answer:

$27,300

Explanation:

Riser Inc. had the following liabilities and assets on May 31 of the current year

Cash= $16,800

Account receivables= $7,050

Supplies= $700

Equipment= $11,750

Account payable= $9,000

Since Assets = Liabilities+ stockholder's equity

The stockholder's equity can be calculated as follows

Cash+Account receivables+Supplies+Equipment= Account payable+stockholder's equity

$16,800+$7,050+$700+$11,750=$9,000+stockholder's equity

$36,300=$9,000+stockholder's equity

Stockholder's equity= $36,300-$9,000

Stockholder's equity= $27,300

Hence the amount of owner's equity as of May 31 of the current year is $27,300

Ma Barker Company has a job-order costing system and uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. Manufacturing overhead cost and direct labor hours were estimated at $100,000 and 40,000 hours, respectively, for the year. In July, Job #334 was completed at a cost of $5,000 in direct materials and $2,400 in direct labor. The labor rate is $6 per hour. If Job #334 contained 200 units, the unit product cost on the completed job cost sheet would be:___________.
a) $42.00
b) $39.50
c) $41.90
d) $37.00

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is option (A) $42.00

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The established rate  is given as = 100,000/40,000

= $2.5 per hour

Thus

The cost of the job is shown is shown below:

The direct material = $5,000

The direct labor = $2400

Then

The manufacturing overheard is = 400 * 2.5 = $1,000

So,

The total cost is = $5,000 + $2400 + $1000 = $8,400

To get our unit cost,

Unit cost = $8400/200 = $42.00

It is important to know that, the  number of labor hours used in jobs = Total labor cost/Rate per hour

=2,400/6 = 400 hours
