d. Cost of goods sold was overstated by $5,000 and pretax income was overstated by $5,000.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Assets were understated by $5,000 and pretax income was understated by $5,000.

Explanation:

Inventory are part of Current Assets in the Balance Sheet. This means that when they are understated, the Assets are also understated. Also understated inventory means that cost of sales are overstated in the Income Statement and consequently, Gross Profit and Pre-tax Income are understated.

What is the present value of $5,000 received 5 years from now if the discount rate is 5% (rounded to the nearest dollar?a. $6,380.b. $3,918.c. $3,200.d. $3,560.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is b. $3,918.

Explanation:

This can be calculated using the simple present value (PV) formula as follows:

PV = FV / (1 + r)^n ............................ (1)

Where;

PV = Present value of the amount = ?

FV = Future value of the amount = $5,000

r = Discount rate = 5%, or 0.05

n = number of years = 5

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

PV = $5,000 / (1 + 0.05)^5

PV = $5,000 / 1.05^5

PV = $5,000 / 1.2762815625

PV = 3,918

Therefore, the correct option is b. $3,918.

What would be the value of the bonds three years after issue in each scenario above, assuming that interest rates stayed steady at either 7 percent or 13 percent?

Answers

Answer:

market rate falls to 7%

market price of bonds after 2 years:

PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.07⁸ = $582.01

PV of coupon payments = $120 x 5.9713 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 8 periods) = $716.56

market price = $1,298.57

market price of bonds after 3 years:

PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.07⁷ = $622.75

PV of coupon payments = $120 x 5.3893 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 7 periods) = $646.72

market price = $1,269.47

market rate increases to 13%

market price of bonds after 2 years:

PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.13⁸ = $376.16

PV of coupon payments = $120 x 4.7988 (PV annuity factor, 13%, 8 periods) = $575.86

market price = $952.02

market price of bonds after 3 years:

PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.13⁷ = $425.06

PV of coupon payments = $120 x 4.4226 (PV annuity factor, 13%, 7 periods) = $530.71

market price = $955.77

b. $16,497 F
c. $19,737 F
d. $19,737 U

Answers

Answer:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= 16,497 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard labor-hours per unit of output 10.3 hours

Standard labor rate $14.10 per hour

Actual hours worked 8,100 hours

Actual output 900 units

To calculate the direct labor efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Standard quantity= 10.3*900= 9,270

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (9,270 - 8,100)*14.1

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= 16,497 favorable

During the coming accounting year, Baker Manufacturing, Inc., anticipates the following costs, expenses, and operating data:_______.
Direct material (16,000 lb.) $ 160,000
Direct labor (at $17.50/hr.) 245,000
Indirect material 24,000
Indirect labor 44,000
Sales commissions 68,000
Factory administration 32,000
Non factory administrative expenses 40,000
Other manufacturing overhead* 96,000
*Provides for operating 61,250 machine hours.
a. Compute the predetermined factory overhead rate under three different bases: (1) direct labor hours, (2) direct labor costs, and (3) machine hours. (Round amounts to 2 decimal places.)
b. Assume that actual factory overhead was $308,000 and that Easton Incorporated elected to apply factory overhead to Work in Process based on direct labor hours.

Answers

Answer:

Baker Manufacturing, Inc.

a) Predetermined factory overhead rate under the three different bases:

(1) direct labor hours = $196,000/14,000 = $14 per DLH

(2) direct labor costs = $196,000/$245,000 = $0.80 per DLC

(3) machine hours = $196,000/61,250 = $3.20 per MH

b) Based on the actual factory overhead of $308,000, there will be under-absorption of the factory overhead by $112,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Direct material (16,000 lb.) $ 160,000

Direct labor (at $17.50/hr.) 245,000

Indirect material 24,000

Indirect labor 44,000

Sales commissions 68,000

Factory administration 32,000

Non factory administrative expenses 40,000

Other manufacturing overhead* 96,000

*Provides for operating 61,250 machine hours.

Factory overhead costs:

Indirect material                           24,000

Indirect labor                                44,000

Factory administration                32,000

Other manufacturing overhead 96,000

Total factory overhead costs $196,000

Estimated direct labor-hours = $245,000/$17.50 = 14,000 hours

a) Predetermined factory overhead rate under the three different bases:

(1) direct labor hours = $196,000/14,000 = $14 per DLH

(2) direct labor costs = $196,000/$245,000 = $0.80 per DLC

(3) machine hours = $196,000/61,250 = $3.20 per MH

b) Actual factory overhead assumed to be $308,000:

Under-absorbed factory overhead = $112,000 ($308,000 - 196,000)

a. The predetermined factory overhead rate under three different bases: Application base are: Direct labor hours $14, Direct labor costs 80%, Machine hours $3.20.

Predetermined overhead rate:

First step

Total manufacturing overhead:

Total manufacturing overhead=Indirect materials + Indirect labor + Factory admin + Other manufacturing overheads

Total manufacturing overhead= 24,000+44,000+32,000+96,000

Total manufacturing overhead= 196,000

Second step

Method 1

Direct labor hours = 245,000/17.5

Direct labor hours = 14,000

Direct labor costs=196,000/14,000 = $14

Direct labor costs= $14

Method 2

Direct labor cost =Total manufacturing overhead/Direct labor

Direct labor cost = 196,000/245,000

Direct labor cost = 80%

Method 3:

Machine hours = Total manufacturing overhead/Provided operating machine hours

Machine hours = 196,000/61,250

Machine hours = $3.20

b.  Actual factory overhead:

Under-absorbed factory overhead = $308,000 - $196,000

Under-absorbed factory overhead =$112,000

Inconclusion the predetermined factory overhead rate under three different bases: Application base are: Direct labor hours $14, Direct labor costs 80%, Machine hours $3.20.

It is always more profitable to operate a full flight at a lower cost per ticket than a partially full flight at a higher price.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer: False

Explanation:

It is not always more profitable to operate a full flight at a lower cost per ticket because this depends on the unique situation in question. If the tickets are so low that even with the amount of people in the airplane the company is unable to recuperate its cost, then the condition does not hold.

Meanwhile sometimes the partially full price might see the prices being paid would offset the costs of the flight which would bring profits to the company. It therefore depends on the unique situation.

A trucking company sold its fleet of trucks for $55,200. The trucks originally cost $1,416,000 and had Accumulated Depreciation of $1,271,000 recorded through the date of disposal. What gain or loss did the trucking company record when it sold the fleet of trucks?A. Loss of $55,600.
B. Gain of $55,600.
C. Gain of $105,400.
D. Loss of $105,400.

Answers

Answer:

the loss at the time of sale is $89,800

Explanation:

The computation of the gain or loss at the time of sale is shown below:

Written down value of trucks at the sale date is

= Cost - Accumulated Depreciation

= $1,416,000 - $1,271,000

= $145,000

And, the sale value is $55,200

So, the loss would be

= $145,000 - $55,200

= $89,800

This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options

hence, the loss at the time of sale is $89,800

You bought a stock three months ago for $51.27 per share. The stock paid no dividends. The current share price is $55.36. What is the APR and EAR of your investment? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

APR= 23.91%

EAR= 8%

Explanation:

A stock was bought at $51.27 three months ago

The current share price is $55.36

Therefore the APR of the investment can be calculated as follows

= 55.36-51.27/51.27

= 4.09/51.27

= 0.0797

= 7.97%

APR= 3×7.97

= 23.91%

EAR= (1+0.079/3)^3-1

= 1+0.0263^3-1

= 1.026^3-1

= 0.08×100

= 8%

7. If net sales decrease and cost of goods sold increases, the gross profit percentage
O A. decreases.
O B. will change based upon the change in total assets.
OC. increases.
D. remains the same.

Answers

Answer:

A. decreases.

Explanation:

When provided with the sales figure and the costs of golds sold (COGS), the calculation of gross profit will be the sales revenue minus the cost of goods sold.

I.e., Sale revenue - COGS = gross profit.

IF sales revenue is high and the cost of goods is low, a business will have a gross profit. The business will make losses if the cost of good s sold is greater than sales.

If sales revenue reduces and COGS increases, the gross profit percentage will decrease.

Answers

Answer:

Option C: if the increase in her nominal income is more than five percent.

It is true only if only if the increase in her nominal income is less than five percent.

Explanation:

An inflation is simply an increase (slight or Sharp) in the average price level of prices of goods and services of which the opposite is deflation.

INFLATION RATE is simply an annual percentage rate of increase in the average price level of commodities/services.

NOMINAL INCOME

Is defined simply as the amount of money received in a given period of time. It is usually measured in current dollars and does not change or simply as the numbers of dollars received as wages, rents, interests, or profits.

nominal incomes tend to rise with inflation

If inflation is higher than what was expected, creditors receive a lower real interest rate than they had anticipated and vice versa.

As the price level rises, the value of money decreases, so people must hold more money to purchase goods and services.

Answers

Answer:

1. B. $8,000

2. C. $7,200

Explanation:

Units or production (UOP) method of depreciation bases the depreciation expense of a machine or equipment on how much it is actually used during the period.

depreciable value = $50,000 - $10,000 = $40,000

depreciation rate per unit = $40,000 / 25,000 = $1.60

Year          Projected Production units         Actual Production units

1                              4,500                                    5,000

2                             5,000                                    4,000

3                             3,500                                    3,000

4                             5,500                                    5,000

5                             6,500                                    Not known

Total                      25,000

depreciation expense year 4 = $1.60 x 5,000 = $8,000

accumulated depreciation year 4 = $1.60 x 17,000 = $27,200

book value = $50,000 - $27,200 = $22,800

if sold at $30,000, gain resulting from sale = $30,000 - $22,800 = $7,200

The following data pertains to Michalko Corp. Assuming that the risk-free rate is 4.2% and the market risk premium is 6.2%, calculate Michalko's weighted-average cost of capital.

Interest-Bearing Debt $19,100
Average borrowing rate for debt 11%
Common Equity:
Book Value $5,120
Market Value $25,700
Marginal Income Tax Rate 40%
Market Equity Beta 1.25

Answers

Answer:

Michalko's weighted-average cost of capital is 9.65 %.

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the return that is required by providers of Long term sources of finance.

WACC = Ke x (E/V) + Kp x (P/V) + Kd x (D/V)

Therefore,

Ke = Cost of Equity

     = Return on Risk free Security + Beta x (Return on Market Portfolio -       Return on Risk free Security)

     = 4.2% + 1.25 × 6.2%

     = 11.95 %

E/V = Market Weight of Equity

      = $25,700/ ($25,700 + $19,100)

      = 0.57

Kd = Cost of Debt

  = Market Interest x ( 1 - tax rate)

  = 11% × (1 - 0.40)

  = 6.60 %

D/V = Market Weight of Debt

      = $19,100/($25,700 + $19,100)

      = 0.43

Thus,

WACC = Ke x (E/V)  + Kd x (D/V)

           = 11.95 % × 0.57 + 6.60 % × 0.43

           = 9.65 %

Explanation:

Answer and Explanation:

1. Preparation of journal entries

a. In a situation where A customer made deposits of the amount of $50,000 in WaMu savings account on 1/1/2006 the Journal entry will be:

Dr Cash 50,000

Cr Customers Saving Account 50,000

(Being to record the deposit from customers)

b. In a situation where WaMu pays a 1% as annual interest on the deposit on 3/31/06 the journal entry will be:

Dr Interest Expense 125

(50,000*1%*3/12)

Cr Cash 125

(Being to record the payment of interest Expense)

c. In a situation where WaMu lends out the

amount of $50,000 to another customer the Journal entry will be:

Dr Loan Receivables 50,000

Cr Cash 50,000

(Being to record the receivable lent to customers)

d. In a situation where WaMu accrues interest on this date 3/31/06 the journal entry will be:

Dr Interest Receivables 750

(50,000*6%*3/12)

Cr Interest Income 750

(Being to record the interest accrued)

2. Calculation for How much net interest income (profit) did WaMu earn in the first quarter

First step is to calculate the Net Interest Rate

Interest Rate on Receivables 6%

Less Interest Rate on Payable 1%

Net Interest Rate 5%

Second Step will be to calculate the Annual Net Interest

Using this formula

Annual Net Interest=Principal *Net Interest Rate

Let plug in the formula

Annual Net Interest=50,000*5%

Annual Net Interest= 2,500

Last step is to calculate the first quarter net interest income

Using this formula

First quarter net interest income=Time*Annual Net Interest

Let plug in the formula

First quarter net interest income= 3/12*2,500

First quarter net interest income= $625

Therefore the First quarter net interest income will be $625

A survey of small businesses with Web sites found that the average amount spent on a site was $11,500 per year (Fortune, March 5, 2001). Given a sample of 60 businesses and a population standard deviation of $4000, what is the margin of error (o decimals)? Use 95% confidence. What sample size would you recommend if the study required a margin of error of $500 (0 decimals)?

Answers

Answer: Margin of error 1012.144.

I would recommend a sample size of 246.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mean= M = $11,500

Standard deviation =s = $4,000

sample size=n= 60

s x = standard error of mean

=s / square root of n= 516.4 = ( 4000 / square root of 60)

Confidence level= 95%

Therefore, Significance level= a (alpha) = 5% = 1- 0.95

No of trails= 2

This is so because it’s a 2 tailed test because we need to find the margin of error.

Since sample size= 60 >= 30

we will use normal distribution

Z at the 0.05 level of significance 2 tailed test = 1.96

Margin of error =z*s x

= 1.96*516.4

= 1012.144.

if the study requires us to assume a margin of error of $500, we will then need to increase the sample size

•Therefore,

Standard deviation =s = $4,000

confidence interval= 95%

Z corresponding to 95% and two tailed test is = 1.96

We have to ensure that Z* s x < $500

or s x < =500/Z

= 500/1.96

= or s x < 255.102041

But

s x=standard error of mean=s / square root of n

s = 4000

or n=(s ^2)/(s x^2)

= 4000^2/255.102041^2

= 246.

Therefore, the sample size should be increased to 246.

Troll Island is a small island nation that recently experienced an autonomous change in aggregate expenditures (AE). AE increased by 4 billion, and the marginal propensity to consume on Troll Island is equal to 0.7. What is the change in Troll Island's real GDP after the increase in AE?

Answers

Answer:

Change in real GDP = $13,333,332,000

Explanation:

MPC = 0.7

Change in real GDP = Change in autonomous spending * Autonomous spending multiplier

Change in real GDP = $4 billion * 1 / (1 - MPC)

Change in real GDP = $4 billion * 1 / 1 - 0.7

Change in real GDP = $4 billion * 3.33333

Change in real GDP = $13,333,332,000

Thus, the real GDP will rise by $13.33 billion

c) decrease its demand for cotton, and increase its demand for cotton substitutes.
d) increase its demand for cotton, and decrease its demand for cotton substitutes.

Answers

Answer: b) import cotton.

Should they then import, the resources that were being used to produce the cotton can be used on other things that they do have competitive advantage in.
