Storm Tools has formed a new business unit to produce battery-powered drills. The business unit was formed by the transfer of selected assets and obligations from the parent company. The unit's initial balance sheet on January 1 contained cash ($500,000), plant and equipment ($2,500,000), notes payable to the parent ($1,000,000), and residual equity ($2,000,000).
The business unit is expected to repay the note at $50,000 per month, plus all accrued interest at 1/2% per month. Payments are made on the last day of each month.
The unit is scheduled to produce 25,000 drills during January, with an increase of 2,500 units per month for the next three months. Each drill requires $40 of raw materials. Raw materials are purchased on account, and paid in the month following the month of purchase. The plant manager has established a goal to end each month with raw materials on hand, sufficient to meet 25% of the following month's planned production.
The unit expects to sell 20,000 drills in January; 25,000 in February, 25,000 in March, and 30,000 per month thereafter. The selling price is $100 per drill. Half of the drills will be sold for cash through a website. The others will be sold to retailers on account, who pay 40% in the month of purchase, and 60% in the following month. Uncollectible accounts are not material. Each drill requires 20 minutes of direct labor to assemble. Labor rates are $24 per hour. Variable factory overhead is applied at $9 per direct labor hour. The fixed factory overhead is $25,000 per month; 60% of this amount is related to depreciation of plant and equipment. With the exception of depreciation, all overhead is funded as incurred.
Selling, general, and administrative costs are funded in cash as incurred, and consist of fixed components (salaries, $100,000; office, $40,000; and advertising, $75,000) and variable components (15% of sales). Prepare a monthly comprehensive budget plan for Storm's new business unit for January through March. The plan should include the (a) sales and cash collections budget, (b) production budget, (c) direct materials purchases and payments budget, (d) direct labor budget, (e) factory overhead budget, (f) ending finished goods budget (assume total factory overhead is applied to production at the rate of $11.73 per direct labor hour), (g) SG&A budget, and (h) cash budget.

The criterion used by economists to decide whether the individual was working wasn’t employed.Employees hold down jobs for full as well as part-time pay where they already haven't a job and therefore are provisions of these terms for work even though they are unemployed.The labor force seems to be the number among all jobs working as well as unemployment.

Marilee's Electronics uses a periodic inventory system and the average cost retail method to estimate ending inventory and cost of goods sold. The following data is available from the company records for the month of June 2021:
Cost Retail Beginning inventory $ 120,000 $ 146,000 Net purchases 383,000 580,000 Net markups 33,000 Net markdowns 51,000 Net sales 600,000
To the nearest thousand, estimated ending inventory is:_______.

Answers

Answer:

$76,680

Explanation:

With regards to the above

Using the cost method

Goods available for sale:

= Beginning inventory + Purchases

= $120,000 + $383,000

= $503,000

Using retail method

Goods available for sale

= Beginning inventory + Purchases + Net markups - Net markdowns

= $146,000 + $580,000 + $33,000 - $51,000

= $708,000

Now, cost to retail ratio

= $503,000 ÷ $708,000

= 0.71

Estimated ending inventory at retail

= Goods available for sale under retail method - Net sales revenue

= $708,000 - $600,000

= $108,000

Therefore, estimated ending inventory = Estimated ending inventory at retail × Cost to retail ratio

= $108,000 × 0.71

= $76,680

Answers

Answer:

$1,836 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the activity variance for net operating income in July is shown below:

net income is

= $39.10 - $18.70

= $20.40

And, the difference in activity is

= 3,250 - 3,160

= 90    

Now the activity variance for net operating income is

= $20.40 × $90

= $1,836 unfavorable

Answers

Answer:

January 1, 2021

Bonds Payable                                           $91.5 million Dr

Loss on Redemption-Bonds Payable      $6.33 million Dr

         Discount on Bonds Payable                    $4.5 million Cr

         Cash                                                            $93.33 million Cr

Explanation:

To calculate the loss on redemption of the bonds, we first need to calculate the value at which bonds have been redeemed. The bonds are redeemed at 102 which means they are redeemed at 102% of the face value.

Redemption amount = 91.5 million * 102% = 93.33 million

The bonds have a carrying value on redemption date of,

Carrying value = Face Value - Discount

Carrying value = 91.5 - 4.5 = $87 million

The loss on redemption of bonds is = 93.33 - 87 = $6.33 million

Your job pays you only once a year for all the work you did over the previous 12 months. Today, December 31, you just received your salary of $72,500, and you plan to spend all of it. However, you want to start saving for retirement beginning next year. You have decided that one year from today you will begin depositing 5 percent of your annual salary in an account that will earn 9 percent per year. Your salary will increase at 3.7 percent per year throughout your career. How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today?

Answers

Answer:

$1,924,410.40

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today

First step is to calculate Next year’s salary

Next year’s salary = $72,500 (1 + ..037)

Next year’s salary = $75,182.50

Second step is to calculate Next year’s deposit

Next year’s deposit = $75,182.50(.05)

Next year’s deposit = $3,759.13

Third step is to find the Present Value (PV) using this formula

PV = C{[1 / (r– g)] – [1 / (r– g)] × [(1 + g) / (1 + r)]^t}

Let plug in the formula

PV = $3,759.13{[1 / (.09 – .037)] – [1 / (.09 – .037)] × [(1 + .037) / (1 + .09)]^40}

PV = $61,268.57

Now let find the Future value (FV) using this formula

FV = PV(1 + r)^t

Let plug in the formula

FV = $61,268.57(1 + .09)^40

FV = $1,924,410.40

Therefore How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,924,410.40

= [$49 × 2675)/2750)+44] × (1+0.024)

= [(49 × 2675)/2750)+44] × 1.024

= [(131075/2750) + 44] × 1.024

= (47.66 + 44) × 1.024

= 91.66 × 1.024

= $93.86

Therefore, the break even price is $93.86

a. Police work is changing. More and more police departments today are implementing community policing practices: working with the public to create a safer environment for all. For this reason, performance evaluations for police officers are starting to include criteria such as helpfulness and friendliness, which are measures of actions, not outcomes.
b. Sam writes for a living and loves it. He writes every dayâsometimes working on his blog, sometimes on a novel, but always putting something on paper. He learned about perseverance in his college success class, and now he sets aside four hours a day just for writing, regardless of what other activities he may have planned.
c. Lifeguards may seem to have an easy life, but the work is really very difficult. All lifeguards have to receive specialized training and be prepared to jump into action at a momentâs notice if an emergency arises. Professional lifeguards use a paramilitary structure (chief, captain, lieutenant, sergeant, and two levels of lifeguards) so that there is only one person giving orders in the event of an emergency.
d. Speed is the name of the game when you are picking applesâthe more you pick, the more you get paid. Gustavo receives $13 per box. He and his coworkers know that if they pick fewer than five boxes a day, they will be asked to leave the orchard.

why is having insurance important ? ​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Because nothing is worth risking when you can have someone back you up. If something ever happens to you that you can't afford, insurance companies will have your back. If your house gets destroyed in a hurricane, you can recover the exact value of the house if you have insurance. However, if you don't have insurance, you bascially just lost your house. You can have insurance for many things such as car insurance, life insurance,  health insurance.

Create a business decision based on the company where you work (can be any company), a small business you hope to own someday or just make something up - then identify, define and explain an incremental cost, opportunity cost and sunk cost. You will need to be somewhat creative in your response.
Respond to this question with 5-7 meaningful sentences (or more - this one could be more)

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The business decision based on the company where you work would be this. To open a new small branch of the fast-food restaurant as a concession in the municipal stadium.

The incremental cost is the future costs as a result of this business decision. This means that we have to consider extra money on a monthly basis to pay for the rent of the concession booth at the Municipal stadium.

The opportunity cost is that instead of opening our branch in the new downtown mall, we decided to move with the stadium option. Having decided to be at the mall could have allowed us to have more clients on a daily basis, especially on weekends.

The sunk cost is a cost from the past, an historical cost that really is not important in the present time to make a decision. Maybe, just a reference to a case in the past. And that's it.

Here we can refer to a cost when we opened the first location of the restaurant, but it was five years ago. Those were different situations, necessities, and conditions.

Levine Inc., which produces a single product, has prepared the following standard cost sheet for one unit of the product. Direct materials (9 pounds at $1.90 per pound) $17.10 Direct labor (4 hours at $10.00 per hour) $40.00 During the month of April, the company manufactures 160 units and incurs the following actual costs. Direct materials purchased and used (2,100 pounds) $4,410 Direct labor (680 hours) $6,664 Compute the total, price, and quantity variances for materials and labor.

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

1. Total materials variance

= (Actual quantity - Actual price) - (Standard quantity × Standard price)

= $4,410 - [(160 × 9) × $1.9]

= $4,140 - $2,736

= $1,404 unfavorable

2. Materials price variance

= (Actual quantity × Actual price) - (Actual quantity × Standard price)

= $4,140 - (2,100 × $1.9)

= $4,140 - $3,990

= $150 unfavorable

3. Materials quantity variance

= (Actual quantity × Standard price) - (Standard quantity × Standard price)

= (2,100 × $1.9) - [(160 × 9) × $1.9]

= $3,990 - $2,736

= $1,254 unfavorable

4. Total labor variance

= (Actual hours × Actual rate) - (Standard hours - Standard rate)

= $6,664 - (160 × 4) × $10

= $6,664 - $6,400

= $264 unfavorable

Explanation:

a. Straight Line depreciation : ( Cost of asset - Salvage Value ) / Useful Life

Depreciation : ( 25,000 - 3,000 ) / 5 years = 4,400

b. Units of Production : ( Cost of Asset / Total Machine units ) * Usage per year

Year 1 : ( 25,000 / 10,000 ) * 2,000 =  $5,000

Year 2 : ( 25,000 / 10,000 ) * 3,000 =  $7,500

Year 3 : ( 25,000 / 10,000 ) * 2,000 =  $5,000

Year 4 : ( 25,000 / 10,000 ) * 2,000 =  $5,000

Year 5 : ( 25,000 / 10,000 ) * 1,000 =  $2,500

c. Double declining Method : Cost * declining percentage

Year 1 : 25,000 * 50% = 12,500

Year 2 : 25,000 * 25% = 6,250

Year 3 : 25,000 * 12.5% = 3,125

Year 4 : 25,000 * 6.25% = 1,562.5

Year 5 : 25,000 * 3.125% = 781.25

The model of competitive markets relies on these three core assumptions:
1. There must be many buyers and sellers—a few players can't dominate the market.
2. Firms must produce an identical product—buyers must regard all sellers' products as equivalent.
3. Firms and resources must be fully mobile, allowing free entry into and exit from the industry.
The first two conditions imply that all consumers and firms are price takers. While the third is not necessary for price-taking behavior, assume for this problem that a market cannot maintain competition in the long run without free entry.
Identify whether or not each of the following scenarios describes a competitive market, along with the correct explanation of why or why not.
The government has granted a patent to a pharmaceutical company for an experimental AIDS drug. That company is the only firm permitted to sell the drug.
a. yes,meets all assumptions
B. no,no free entry
C. no, not many sellers
D. No, not an identical product

Answers

Answer:

B. No, no free entry

Explanation:

With a patent granted to one pharmaceutical company to produce and sell an experimental AIDs drug, all doors of free entry and exit have been locked against other pharmaceutical companies.  This implies that one of the major ideals of a competitive market is violated.  Without free entry and exit, there cannot be many sellers, and we cannot discuss about the possibility of firms producing identical products because there is only one drug.

Answers

Answer:

Outsourcing is a cost reduction practice where Company A contracts Company B or another party to carry out services or produce goods that Company A used to produce for itself.

It is done when paying Company B to perform the services, is cheaper than performing it themselves which would enable Company A to cut down on costs.

For example, it costs Company A $5 per customer service call if they do it themselves but it would cost $3 per call if they let Company B handle it. Outsourcing is where they pay Company B that $3 to handle the calls and save $2.

CarCut Corporation has been employing the Fixed-Order Quantity model to manage the inventory of its best selling 3D printer. The current inventory policy places exactly 60 orders each year. The monthly inventory holding cost is $25 per unit and the setup cost is $50 per order. The demand during lead time is constant, and it takes a lead time of 2 days to receive a shipment. Assume CarCut operates 360 days per year. What is the optimal reorder point in units

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The optimal reorder point in units is calculated as the average daily sales unit multiplied by the delivery lead time.

In the question, we're not provided with the annual demand as this is vital in order to know the average daily unit. Therefore, the question is incomplete

The CarCut Corporation's optimal reorder point in units is 208 units.

Data and Calculations:

Number of orders per year = 60 orders

Monthly inventory holding cost = $25 per unit

Setup cost = $50 per order

Number of operating days per year = 360 days

Lead time = 2 days

Number of times for orders per year = 180 (360/2)

Total annual demand = 10,800 (60 x 180)

Optimal reorder point in units = EOQ = square root of (2 x 10,800 x $50)/$25

= 208 units

Explanation:

Income of J.D related to Clampett = Ordinary income + Capital gain

Given that

Basis distribution = $42,500

Basis stock = $36,000

Ordinary = $11,800

But Capital gain = Basis distribution - (Basis stock + Ordinary income

= $42,500 - ($36,000 + $11,800)

= $42,500 - $47,800

= - $5,300

Therefore, J.D income related to Clampett

= Ordinary income + Capital gain

= $11,800 - $5,300

Assume the truck was totaled in an accident on December 31, 2019. What amount of gain or loss should ABC record on December 31, 2019 (If a loss, put a minus number in front)

Answers

Answer:

$38,000 Loss

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What amount of gain or loss should ABC record on December 31, 2019

First step is to calculate the depreciation per year

The cashew industry is perfectly competitive and until now each of the identical firms in the industry have been earning zero economic profits while selling ay units of output each (for a combined industry-wide total of qy units) at a market equilibrium price of P1 per unit. An unexpected increase in the demand for cashews raises the market equilibrium price to P2, which creates a situation in which P2 exceeds MC at 91 units of output.
a. If the firms continued producing 91 units each, would their combined output of cashews be too little, too much, or just right to achieve allocative efficiency?
i. Just right
ii. Too much
iii. Too little
b. In the long run, what will happen to the supply of cashews and the price of cashews?
i. The industry's supply of cashews will exceed Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P1.
ii. The industry's supply of cashews will be less than Q1 and the price of cashews will be less than P1.
iii. The industry's supply of cashews will equal Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P2.
iv. The industry's supply of cashews will exceed Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P2.

Answers

Answer:

a. iii. Too little

b. i. The industry's supply of cashews will exceed Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P1.

Explanation:

Allocative efficiency refers to the point in production where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal cost. As this is a perfectly competitive market, marginal revenue is the same as price which as shown in the question, exceeds Marginal cost. The firms are therefore producing too little to achieve allocative efficiency and need to produce more to make price and marginal cost equal.
