Answer: a. less labor and more capital
Explanation:
When the Marginal Revenue Product of Labor (MRP) is divided by the price for labor (MRC), the result is less than 1. This means that for every dollar spent on labor, labor produces less than a dollar. The labor is therefore not efficient.
This is the reverse for capital where the marginal revenue product for capital (MRP) when divided by the price (MRC) is greater than one which means that for every dollar investment in capital, more than a dollar is made.
As capital is more efficient, it would make sense to invest more in capital whilst reducing the investment in labor as this would lead to more gain for the company.

Vaughn Manufacturing acquires a coal mine at a cost of $1920000. Intangible development costs total $354000. After extraction has occurred, Vaughn must restore the property (estimated fair value of the obligation is $183000), after which it can be sold for $208000. Vaughn estimates that 5000 tons of coal can be extracted. What is the amount of depletion per ton
Answer:
$452
Explanation:
The amount of depletion per ton is computed below.
= (Acquired cost of coal mine + Intangible development costs + Fair value of the obligation - Sale value) ÷ Number of estimated tons of coal extracted
= ($1,920,000 + $353,000 + $193,000 - $208,000) ÷ 5000
= $452
The amount of depletion per ton is therefore $452

Dividend payout ratio = Dividend per share / Earnings per share = $3.35 / $13.13 = 0.2551, or 26%
3. Dividend yield ratio. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your percentage final answer to nearest whole number (i.e., 0.1234 should be entered as 12).)
Dividend yield ratio = Dividend per share / Market price per share = $3.35 / $61 = 0.0549, or 5%
4. Price-earnings ratio. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your answer to nearest whole number.)
Price-earnings ratio = Market price per share / Earnings per share = $61 / $13.13 = 4.65, or 5
5. Book value per share. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Book value per share = Total stockholders’ equity / Number of shares outstanding = $812,000 / 14,000 = $58.00

a. ARM A has a margin of 3 percent and is tied to a three-year index with payments adjustable every two years; payments cannot increase by more than 10 percent from the preceding period; the term is 30 years.
b. ARM B has a margin of 3 percent and is tied to a one-year index with payments to be adjusted each year; payments cannot increase by more than 10 percent from the preceding period; the term is 30 years.
Answer: ARM A

Qu. 13-95 (Algo) Two products, QI and VH, emerge from a joint process... Two products, QI and VH, emerge from a joint process. Product QI has been allocated $27,300 of the total joint costs of $48,000. A total of 2,200 units of product QI are produced from the joint process. Product QI can be sold at the split-off point for $11 per unit, or it can be processed further for an additional total cost of $10,200 and then sold for $13 per unit. If product QI is processed further and sold, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company compared with sale in its unprocessed form directly after the split-off point
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the financial advantage or disadvantage is as follows:
Particulars Product Q1
Selling price after further processing 13.00
Selling price at split off point 11.00
Incremental revenue per pound or gallon 2.00
Total production 2,200.00
Total Incremental Revenue 4,400.00
Total Incremental Processing costs 10,200.00
Total Incremental profit or loss (5,800.00)

$75,000
$200,000
$300,000
$375,000
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
1. Based on the information given in the question, there'll be a retained earning statement of:
= $1090000 × (1 - 30%).
= $1090000 × 70%
= $1090000 × 0.7
= $763000
There'll be a retained earnings statement as of $763,000 addition to the beginning balance.
2. Based on the information given in the question, the net income was overstated by $100,000 since the depreciation expense hasn't been deducted. Therefore, the correct option is A ''Overstated by $100,000".
3. The amount that will be debited to the Construction in Process account, to record the change at the beginning of 2021 will be:
= ($750000 - $450000) + ($375000 - $300000)
= $300000 + $75000
= $375000

Using property she inherited, Lei makes a 2020 gift of $16,200,000 to her adult daughter, Doris. Neither Lei nor her husband, Greg, has made any prior taxable gifts. Assuming that a flat 40% tax rate applies, determine the Federal gift tax liability if (a) the election to split gifts is not made and (b) the election to split gifts is made. (c) What are the tax savings from making the election
Answer:
a)$1,842,000
b) $808,500 each
c) $$1,842,000
Explanation:
Worth of Gift made = $16200000
Assuming a Flat rate of 40%
Determine federal gift tax liability
a) When Election to split gift is not made
Taxable gift = $162,000,000 - annual exclusion
= 162,000,000 - 15,000
= $16,185,000
Determine the Gift tax = [ 345800 + ( 16,185,000 - 1,000,000 ) 40% ]
= $6419800
applying values gotten from computing tax table ( Appendix A )
Given that the max credit allowed for 2020 = $4577800
hence Gift tax due = $1,842,000 ( 6419800 - 4577800 )
b) If election to split is made i.e. section 25I3 is elected
Gift tax due = $8,100,000 - $15,000 = $808,500 each ( Greg and Lei
i.e. For Greg and Lei
c) Tax savings made
Tax savings =$1,842,000 ($1,842,000 -$0)
On February 24, 2020, Allison's building, with an adjusted basis of $2,986,000 (and used in her trade or business), is destroyed by fire. On March 31, 2020, she receives an insurance reimbursement of $3,881,800 for the loss. Allison invests $3,493,620 in a new building and buys stock with the balance of insurance proceeds. Allison is a calendar year taxpayer. a. By what date must Allison make the new investment to qualify for the nonrecognition election
Answer:
As a calendar-year taxpayer, Allison must make the new investment by December 31, 2020 to qualify for the nonrecognition election.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Adjusted basis of building = $2,986,000
Insurance reimbursement = $3,881,800
Gain from loss = $895,800 ($3,881,800 - $2,986,000)
Investment in new building = $3,493,620
Purchase of stock = $388,180 ($3,881,800 - $3,493,620)
b) Allison is expected to make the election for the nonrecognition of the gain from loss in his Federal Tax return in the taxable year in which the gain with respect to the loss of the building is realized. The return must set forth the computation of the gain and other required details.
Myers Corporation has the following data related to direct materials costs for November: actual cost for 4,650 pounds of material at $5.40 and standard cost for 4,490 pounds of material at $6.20 per pound. The direct materials price variance is a.$992 favorable b.$3,720 unfavorable c.$3,720 favorable d.$992 unfavorable
Answer:
Direct material price variance= $3,720 favorable
Explanation:
To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Actual cost= $5.4
Standard cost= $6.2
Actual quantity= 4,650
Direct material price variance= (6.2 - 5.4)*4,650
Direct material price variance=$3,720 favorable
