Answer:
$200,000
Explanation:
The value of the government obligation = $5,00,000, 8%, 20 years bonds payable at 103
Interest expenses = $5,000,000 * 8/100 * 6/12 = $200,000.
Thus, $200,000 will be reported as debt service expenses in the fiscal year 20X7.
ose purchased a vehicle for business and personal use. In 2020, he used the vehicle 10,500 miles (80% of total) for business and calculated his vehicle expenses using the standard mileage rate (mileage was incurred ratably throughout the year). He paid $850 in interest and $85 in property taxes on the car. Required: Calculate the total business deduction related to the car. (Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.)
Answer:
$6,366
Explanation:
Calculation for the total business deduction related to the car:
Total business deduction=($10,500x .535) + $850(.80) + $85(.80)

Cullumber Company owns delivery equipment that cost $49,700 and has accumulated depreciation of $24,800 as of July 30, 2020. On that date, Cullumber disposes of this equipment. For parts b - d below, enter D for debit or C for credit in the first box and the amount in the second box. What is the net book value of the equipment on July 30, 2020
Answer:
The net book value of the equipment on July 30, 2020 is $24,900.
Explanation:
The net book value can be calculate using the following formula:
Net book value = Cost of the equipment - Accumulated depreciation …………………… (1)
Where:
Cost of the equipment = $49,700
Accumulated depreciation = $24,800
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Net book value = $49,700 - $24,800 = $24,900
Therefore, the net book value of the equipment on July 30, 2020 is $24,900.
The management of Maltwo Co. asks your help in determining the comparative effects of the FIFO and LIFO inventory cost flow methods. For 2015, the accounting records show the following data. Inventory, January 1 (10,000 units) $ 37,000 Cost of 110,000 units purchased 479,000 Selling price of 90,000 units sold 720,000 Operating expenses 150,000 Units purchased consisted of 40,000 units at $4.20 on May 10; 50,000 units at $4.40 on August 15; and 20,000 units at $4.55 on November 20. Income taxes are 30%. Instructions: Prepare comparative condensed income statements for 2015 under FIFO and LIFO. (Show computations of ending inventory.) Answer the following questions for management. Which inventory cost flow method produces the most meaningful inventory amount for the balance sheet? Why? Which inventory cost flow method produces the most meaningful net income? Why? How muc
Answer:
Net income for Maltwo Co. is $132,300
Explanation:
FIFO
Sold 90,000 units
Cost of sold units =
opening 10,000 units for $3.7 = $37,000
purchased 40,000 units for $4.20 = $168,000
purchased 40,000 units for $4.4 = $176,000
Total cost of goods sold = $381,000
Sales = $720,000
less: cost of goods sold = $381,000
less: operating expenses = $150,000
Operating income = $189,000
less: Income tax 30% = $56,700
Net Income = $132,300
LIFO
Sold 90,000 units
Cost of sold units =
purchased 20,000 units for $4.55 = $91,000
purchased 50,000 units for $4.40 = $220,000
purchased 20,000 units for $4.20 = $84,000
Total cost of goods sold = $395,000
Sales = $720,000
less: cost of goods sold = $395,000
less: operating expenses = $150,000
Operating income = $175,000
less: Income tax 30% = $52,500
Net Income = $122,500
Most meaningful net income is calculated by FIFO because in most of the businesses goods purchased first are sold first and if not then the goods purchased the earliest cross its expiry date and eventually results in a loss for the company.
So the net income for Maltwo Co. is $132,300

b). the statement of probability that the percent of money returned out of the economics classes is 100.P(R|E)
c). the statement of probability that shows the percent of the money returned out of the other classes is 100.P(R|O)
d). No, the money returned is not independent of the classes as the P(R) is not equal to P(R|E)
e). No, based on the study, the economist are not selfish than other classes' people as the percent of the envelops returned from the economics classes is 51% and that from other classes is 36%.
The following units of an inventory item were available for sale during the year: Beginning inventory 10 units at $55 First purchase 25 units at $60 Second purchase 30 units at $65 Third purchase 15 units at $70 The firm uses the periodic inventory system. During the year, 60 units of the item were sold. The value of ending inventory rounded to the nearest dollar using the weighted average cost method is
Answer:
$3,788
Explanation:
Periodic Inventory is being used. Periodic inventory method determines the cost of sales and inventory after a certain period determined by the company.
Step 1 : Find Cost per unit
Cost per unit = Total Costs ÷ Units available for sale
= $5,050 ÷ 80
= $63.125
Step 2 : Determine value of ending inventory
Value of ending inventory = Cost per unit x units remaining
= $63.125 x 60 units
= $3,788

The costs and cost drivers associated with four activity cost pools are given below: Activities Unit Level Batch Level Product Level Facility Level Cost $20,000 $10,000 $15,000 $36,000 Cost Driver 4,000 labor hours 400 set-ups % of use 72,000 units Production of 20,000 units of its popular foldable hamper required 2,000 labor hours, 20 setups, and consumed one-quarter of the product sustaining activities. What amount of batch-level costs will be allocated to the product
Answer:
$500
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of batch-level costs that will be allocated to the product
Using this formula
Allocation rate=(Total batch level overhead cost/Total activity base ) * Set-ups
Let plug in the formula
Allocation rate=( $10,000/400 set-ups) *20 set-ups
Allocation rate=$25 per set-up *20 set-ups
Allocation rate=$500
Therefore the amount of batch-level costs that will be allocated to the product is $500

Your broker is selling you an investment scheme in which you will receive $5,000 four years from now, $6,000 five years from now and $7,000 six years from now. The broker is asking you to pay $15,000 for this investment scheme. Your required rate of return is 12%. If you were to pay $15,000 for this scheme, what is the annual rate of return you would earn
Answer:
IRR = 3.64%
Explanation:
using a financial calculator or excel spreadsheet we can determine the IRR of this investment:
year 0 = -$15,000
year 1 = $0
year 2 = $0
year 3 = $0
year 4 = $5,000
year 5 = $6,000
year 6 = $7,000
IRR = 3.64%
Since your required rate of return is 12%, you should pay a maximum of $10,128.57

Suppose that the supply function for honey is p=S(q)=0.4q+2.8, where p is the price in dollars for an 8-oz container and q is the quantity in barrels. Suppose also that the equilibrium price is $4.80 and the demand is 4 barrels when the price is $6.90. Find an equation for the demand function, assuming it is linear.
Answer:
The demand function is p= (-2.1)*q + 15.3
Explanation:
The supply function for honey is p=S(q)=0.4*q+2.8, where p is the price in dollars for an 8-oz container and q is the quantity in barrels. The equilibrium price is $4.80. So, the equilibrium quantity is:
4.80=0.4*q+2.8
Solving:
4.80 - 2.8=0.4*q
2=0.4*q
2÷0.4= q
5=q
The demand function, assuming it is linear, is p=m*q+b
The equilibrium quantity is 5 barrels and the equilibrium price is $4.80; and the demand is 4 barrels when the price is $6.90. So:
[tex]\left \{ {{4.80=m*5+b} \atop {6.90=m*4+b}} \right.[/tex]
Isolating the variable "b" from the first equation, you get:
4.80 - m*5= b
Replacing the previous expression in the second equation you get:
6.90=m*4 + 4.80 - m*5
6.90 - 4.80=m*4 - m*5
2.1= (-1)*m
2.1÷(-1)= m
-2.1=m
Replacing the value of "m" in the expression 4.80 - m*5= b you get:
4.80 - (-2.1)*5= b
Solving you get:
15.3= b
So, the demand function is p= (-2.1)*q + 15.3
Suppose that you have the following information for an economy:______.
Marginal propensity to consume - MPC 0.80 Autonomous consumption - A $500 Planned investment - PI $600 Net exports - NX -$400 Government spending - G $300
You will need this information for the questions that follow.
Part 1. When real GDP is equal to $4,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
Part 2. When real GDP is equal to $5,000, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
Part 3. When real GDP is equal to $5,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
Answer:
Part 1. When real GDP is equal to $4,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $4,600.
Part 2. When real GDP is equal to $5,000, aggregate expenditure is equal to $5,000.
Part 3. When real GDP is equal to $5,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $5,400.
Explanation:
The aggregate expenditure (AE) can be calculated using the following formula:
AE = (A + (MPC * Y)) + PI + G + NX ………………. (1)
Where;
AE = aggregate expenditure = ?
A = Autonomous consumption = $500
MPC = Marginal propensity to consume = 0.80
Y = Real GDP
PI = Planned investment = $600
G = Government spending = $300
NX = Net exports = -$400
Based on the above, we can now proceed as follows:
Part 1. When real GDP is equal to $4,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
This implies that:
Y = Real GDP = $4,500
Substituting this and other values given above into equation (1), we have:
AE = ($500 + (0.80 * $4,500)) + $600 + $300 - $400 = $4,600
Therefore, when real GDP is equal to $4,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $4,600.
Part 2. When real GDP is equal to $5,000, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
This implies that:
Y = Real GDP = $5,000
Substituting this and other values given above into equation (1), we have:
AE = ($500 + (0.80 * $5,000)) + $600 + $300 - $400 = $5,000
Therefore, when real GDP is equal to $5,000, aggregate expenditure is equal to $5,000.
Part 3. When real GDP is equal to $5,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
This implies that:
Y = Real GDP = $5,500
Substituting this and other values given above into equation (1), we have:
AE = ($500 + (0.80 * $5,500)) + $600 + $300 - $400 = $5,400
Therefore, when real GDP is equal to $5,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $5,400.
The mythical Three Floyds Brewery in Munster, Indiana makes a beer called Zombie Dust, which it sells in large bottles to pubs and stores in the Midwest. The setup cost of brewing and bottling a batch of beer is $1,800 per setup. The holding cost of storing a bottle of beer is $2.50 per year. The annual demand for Zombie Dust is 20,000 bottles. Three Floyds Brewery can brew and bottle beer at the rate of 400 bottles per day. The brewery operates 250 days per year and currently produces Zombie Dust in batches of 10,000 bottles.
a. What is the annual holding and setup cost of their current production schedule?
b. What is the economic production quantity (EPQ)?
c. What is the cost difference between the current production schedule and the EPQ?
Answer:
Setup cost (S) = 1800
Holding cost (H) = 2.5
Annual demand (D) = 20000
Daily demand (d) = Annual demand / Number of working days = 20000 bottles/250 = 80 bottles daily
Daily production (p) = 400
a. Given production quantity Q = 10000
Holding cost = 1/2*[(p-d)/p]*QH
Holding cost = ((400-80)/(2*400))*10000 *2.5= 10000
Ordering cost = (D/Q)S = (20000/10000)*1800 = 3600
Total Cost = Annual holding cost + Annual ordering Cost = 10000 + 3600 = 13600
b. Economic production Quantity (EPQ) = Q
Q = √2DS/H √p/p-d
Q = √2*20000*1800/2.5 √400 / 400-80
Q = 6000 bottles
Holding cost = 1/2*[(p-d)/p]*QH
Holding cost = ((400-80)/(2*400))*6000 *2.5= 6000
Ordering cost = (D/Q)S = (20000/6000)*1800 = 6000
Total Cost = Annual Holding cost + Annual ordering cost = 6000 + 6000 = 12000
C. Cost difference between the current production schedule and the EPQ = 13600 - 12000 = 1600
Month-end & Year-end process helps to write-off bad debts.
Select one:
True
O False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
It is FALSE that Month-end and Year-end process helps to write-off bad debts.
This is because both month-end and year-end processes are processes specifically carried out to adjust all account balances to make and depict the actual financial activities of the firm. This assists the firm's management team to make a further decision, but not to just write-off bad debts.
Bad debt is written off only when a customer invoice is deemed to be uncollectible.

All of the following are benefits associated with empowerment except: a. empowered employees are more likely to respond in a positive way to service failures and to engage in effective service recovery strategies. b. empowered employees are more customer focused and quicker in responding to customer needs. c. empowered employees tend to feel better about their jobs and themselves, which is automatically reflected in the way they interact with customers. d. empowered front-line employees gain a false sense of power, in turn aiding the customer. e. empowered front-line service employees can be key to new service ideas and a cheaper source of market research than going to the consumer directly.
Answer:
d. empowered front-line employees gain a false sense of power, in turn aiding the customer.
Explanation:
Employee empowerment is when an employer gives the employee a degree of autonomy in making decisions that affects their jobs.
They are allowed to decide how best to perform their jobs.
This gives the employee a sense of ownership that translates to better customer service, positive attitude, better employee moral, and cheaper source of market research than going to the consumer directly.
However this style does not give a false sense to power, because the employees actually.have autonomy in their work.
The statement that does not benefits associated with empowerment is that empowered front-line employees gain a false sense of power, in turn aiding the customer.
Empowerment is known to be firm based commitment to respect all its employees as intelligent and responsible human beings.The rewards of empowerment are numerous such as higher levels of employee satisfaction, a sense of shared purpose, and more collaboration etc.
Conclusively ,Employee empowerment as a management philosophy uses the importance of granting employees to make independent decisions and act on them.

A food retailer purchased a computer and debited the cost to the purchases account. What was the effect on the profit for the year and the non-current assets? Profit for the year Non-Current Assets Overstated Understated Overstated Understated А B С D OA OB OD
Answer:
Profit for the year UNDERSTATEDNon-Current Assets UNDERSTATEDExplanation:
A food retailer buying a computer means that it is a Non-current asset. Non-current assets should not be described as Purchases.
In debiting the asset to Purchases, purchases will be overstated which means that Cost of Goods sold is overstated as well and this will reduce the profit more than it should as COGs are deducted from profit. Profits will therefore be understated.
As the computer was supposed to go to Non-Current assets but did not, the non-current assets will be understated because they are less than they ought to be.
Assume that the CBL is not marketable at split-off but must be planed and sized at a cost of $300,000 per production run. During this process, 10,000 units are unavoidably lost and have no value. The remaining units of CBL are salable at $14 per unit. The RBL, although salable immediately at the split-off point, is coated with a tarlike preservative that costs $200,000 per production run. The RBL is then sold for $12 each. Using the net realizable value basis, how much of the completion costs should be assigned to each unit of CBL
Question
Northwest Building Products (NBP) manufactures two lumber products from a joint milling process: residential building lumber (RBL) and commercial building lumber (CBL). A standard production run incurs joint costs of $350,000 and results in 100,000 units of RBL and 90,000 units of CBL. Each RBL sells for $13 per unit and each CBL sells for $13 per unit.
Assume that the CBL is not marketable at split-off but must be planed and sized at a cost of $300,000 per production run. During this process, 10,000 units are unavoidably lost and have no value. The remaining units of CBL are salable at $14 per unit. The RBL, although salable immediately at the split-off point, is coated with a tarlike preservative that costs $200,000 per production run. The RBL is then sold for $12 each. Using the net realizable value basis, how much of the completion costs should be assigned to each unit of CBL
Answer:
Completion cost per unit of CBL=$5.82
Explanation:
Joint cost is the total cost incurred from the start of start of production process up until the split off point where two or more products result from the same process. The joint products in this case are CBL and RBL
The completion cost of CBL is the sum of the apportioned joint cost at the split-off point plus the further processing cost
Completion cost = apportioned joint cost + further processing cost
Joint cost can be apportioned using the net realizable value as follows
Total net realizable value at the split of point for the two product=
RBL =$13 × 100,000=1,300,000
CBL =$13 × 90,000=1,170,000
Total 2,470,000
Apportioned joint cost to CBL = sales value of CBL/Total sales of product× joint cost
= (1,170,000/2,470,000)*$350,000= 165,789.47
Completion cost = 165,789.47 + 300,000 = $465,789.47
Completion cost per unit of CBL = Completion cost/Expected unit
=$465,789.47/(90,000-10,000) units
=$5.82
Note that the expected units is that available for sale after normal loss as be accounted for. So, we deduct the loss units
Completion cost per unit of CBL=$5.82
Morris Company applies overhead based on direct labor costs. For the current year, Morris Company estimated total overhead costs to be $400,000, and direct labor costs to be $2,000,000. Actual overhead costs for the year totaled $380,000, and actual direct labor costs totaled $1,800,000. At year-end, the balance in the Factory Overhead account is a:_________.
a. $360,000 Debit balance.
b. $20,000 Credit balance.
c. $400,000 Credit balance.
d. $20,000 Debit balance.
e. $380,000 Debit balance.
Answer:
Option d ($20,000 Debit balance) is the appropriate option.
Explanation:
The given values are:
Total overhead costs,
= $400,000
Direct labor costs,
= $2,000,000
Actual overhead incurred,
= $380,000
Actual direct labor costs,
= $1,800,000
Now,
As a % of labor cost, the OH will be:
= [tex]\frac{400000}{2000000}\times 100[/tex]
= [tex]20 \ percent[/tex]
The absorbed overhead will be:
= [tex]1800000\times 20 \ percent[/tex]
= [tex]360,000[/tex]
Then,
The balance in overhead account will be:
= Actual overhead incurred - Absorbed overhead
= [tex]380000 - 360000[/tex]
= [tex]20,000[/tex] ($) (Debit balance)

Fillmore Industries is a vertically integrated firm with several divisions that operate as decentralized profit centers. Fillmore's Systems Division manufactures scientific instruments and uses the products of two of Fillmore's other divisions. The Board Division manufactures printed circuit boards (PCBs). One PCB model is made exclusively for the Systems Division using proprietary designs, while less complex models are sold in outside markets. The products of the Transistor Division are sold in a well-developed competitive market; however, one transistor model is also used by the Systems Division. The costs per unit of the products used by the Systems Division are as follows:
PCB Transistor
Direct materials 1,85 0,40
Direct labor 4,20 0,90
Variable overhead 2,40 0,70
Fixed overhead 0,85 0,75
Total Cost 9,30 2,75
The Board Division sells its commercial product at full cost plus a 30 percent markup and believes the proprietary board made for the Systems Division would sell for $12 per unit on the open market. The market price of the transistor used by the Systems Division is $3.45 per unit.
Required:
1. What is the minimum transfer price for the Transistor Division? What is the maximum transfer price of the transistor for the Systems Division?
2. Assume the Systems Division is able to purchase a large quantity of
transistors from an outside source at $2.75 per unit. Further assume that the Transistor Division has excess capacity. Can the Transistor Division meet this price?
3. The Board and Systems divisions have negotiated a transfer price of $11 per printed circuit board. Discuss the impact this transfer price will have on each division.
Answer:
Fillmore Industries
Fillmore's Systems Division
1. Minimum and Maximum Transfer Prices:
PCB Transistor
Minimum transfer
price $12.00 $3.45
Maximum transfer
price $12.09 $3.58
2. Yes. The Transistor Division can meet this price. It can sell at $2.60 (Variable cost plus markup) by eliminating the fixed cost, which is not a relevant cost.
3. A transfer price of $11 reduces the profitability of the Transistor Division while it increases the profitability of the other division. The transfer price should be a market-competitively determined price to encourage efficiency in the divisions.

If there are important external benefits associated with the consumption of a product:_______.
A. special excise taxes should be levied on producers of the product.
B. the market supply curve for the product lies too far to the right to provide an efficient allocation of resources.
C. the market demand curve understates the relative importance of the product and resources are therefore underallocated to its production.
D. government should enact legislation to prohibit the production of the commodity.
Answer:
C. the market demand curve understates the relative importance of the product and resources are therefore underallocated to its production.
Explanation:
Positive external benefits refer to third party positive side effects, above & beyond private marginal benefit to the concerned consumer.
Eg : Education - Its consumption not only affects the concerned person, but the positive trickle down to the people & society around.
Personal consumption decisions are based on : equalisation - of private marginal benefit (demand) curve & private marginal cost curve. However, goods having positive external benefits have real marginal benefit curve increased over private benefit curve, by the extent of extra marginal social benefit.
So, market demand (based on private marginal benefit) curve understates the importance of product, and resources are therefore underallocated to its production (due to undervaluation of demand).
Suppose the price of gasoline increases and that sport utility vehicles get poor gas mileage compared to other available cars. One would expect: Select one: a. the demand for gasoline to decrease. b. the demand for sport utility vehicles to decrease. c. the demand for sport utility vehicles to increase. d. the quantity of sport utility vehicles demanded to decrease.
Answer:
b
Explanation:
If the sport utility vehicle has a bad mileage, it means that it burns fuel quickly, so you would have to buy gasoline more frequently.
sport utility vehicle is a complement for gasoline
Complementary goods are goods that are consumed together
If the price of gasoline increases, it would become more expensive to maintain sport utility vehicle. As a result, the demand for sport utility vehicle would decrease. this would shift the demand curve for sport utility vehicle inward.
A increase in the price of gasoline would result in a decrease in the quantity demanded of gasoline and not a reduction in demand.
