Answer:
Uses an assumed reasonable profit margin to determine the stand-alone price.
Explanation:
Is the pricing method in which a resonable profit margin is added to the total product cost to determine the sale price of a product.
For Example
Product A Incurred a total cost of $20 to produce one unit. The company XYZ wants to earn 20% profit margin on the cost of the product, hence the price will be $24 ( $20 x ( 1 + 20% ).
The properly formatted question is as follow

g You are looking for a dividend security to provide yourself with additional steady income. You have found a company with an expected dividend next year of $1.20. You have done an analysis on the company's past dividends and the dividend amount has increased at a constant rate of 3.4 percent for the last eight years and you have no expectation of a change in growth rate. If you require a 9 percent rate of return on your investments, what should you be willing to pay today for the stock
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question:
Expected dividend, D1 = $1.20
Required rate of return, r = 9%
Growth rate = 3.4%
Then, the formula to get the price will be:
= D1/(r-g)
= 1.2/(9%-3.4%)
= 1.2/5.6%
= $21.4
The amount to pay due the stock is less than $24.00
Stanley-Morgan Industries adopted a defined benefit pension plan on April 12, 2021. The provisions of the plan were not made retroactive to prior years. A local bank, engaged as trustee for the plan assets, expects plan assets to earn a 10% rate of return. The actual return was also 10% in 2021 and 2022\.\* A consulting firm, engaged as actuary, recommends 6% as the appropriate discount rate. The service cost is $250,000 for 2021 and $380,000 for 2022. Year-end funding is $260,000 for 2021 and $270,000 for 2022. No assumptions or estimates were revised during 2021. * We assume the estimated return was based on the actual return on similar investments at the inception of the plan and that, since the estimate didn't change, that also was the actual rate in 2022.

A machine that cost $400,000 has an estimated residual value of $40,000 and an estimated useful life of 20,000 machine hours. The company uses units-of-production depreciation and ran the machine 3,000 hours in year 1, 8,000 hours in year 2, and 6,000 hours in year 3.
Answer:
The depreciation expense for year 1 is $54,000, for year 2 is $144,000, and for year 3 is $108,000.
Explanation:
To calculate the depreciation expense using the units-of-production method, we need to determine the depreciation rate per machine hour.
Step 1: Calculate the depreciable cost.
Depreciable cost = Cost of the machine - Residual value
Depreciable cost = $400,000 - $40,000
Depreciable cost = $360,000
Step 2: Calculate the depreciation rate per machine hour.
Depreciation rate per machine hour = Depreciable cost / Estimated machine hours of useful life
Depreciation rate per machine hour = $360,000 / 20,000 machine hours
Depreciation rate per machine hour = $18
Step 3: Calculate the depreciation expense for each year.
Year 1: 3,000 machine hours
Depreciation expense = Depreciation rate per machine hour * Hours in year 1
Depreciation expense = $18 * 3,000
Depreciation expense = $54,000
Year 2: 8,000 machine hours
Depreciation expense = Depreciation rate per machine hour * Hours in year 2
Depreciation expense = $18 * 8,000
Depreciation expense = $144,000
Year 3: 6,000 machine hours
Depreciation expense = Depreciation rate per machine hour * Hours in year 3
Depreciation expense = $18 * 6,000
Depreciation expense = $108,000
Therefore, the depreciation expense for year 1 is $54,000, for year 2 is $144,000, and for year 3 is $108,000.

Cisco Systems Inc. reported the following in its income statement for the year ended July 30, 2016: Basic earnings per share of $2.13 and diluted earnings per share of $2.11. There were 5,053 million weighted average basic shares were outstanding during the year. What approximate net income, did the company report for 2016
Answer:
$10,762,890
Explanation:
Earnings per Share = Net Income attributable to Common Stock holders ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks
Now, since we have basic earnings per share we an use that to find net income. Net Income is Profit after tax and interest and only available in basic earnings per share calculation.
Net Income attributable to Common Stock holders = Earnings per Share x weighted average basic shares = ($2.13 x 5,053,000) = $10,762,890
Bach Instruments Inc. makes three musical instruments: flutes, clarinets, and oboes. The budgeted factory overhead cost is $2,948,125. Overhead is allocated to the three products on the basis of direct labor hours. The products have the following budgeted production volume and direct labor hours per unit:
Budgeted Production Volume Direct Labor Hours Per Unit
Flutes 2,000 units 2.0
Clarinets 1,500 3.0
Oboes 1,750 1.5
a. Determine the single plantwide overhead rate.
$ per direct labor hour
b. Use the overhead rate in (a) to determine the amount of total and per-unit overhead allocated to each of the three products, rounded to the nearest dollar.
Total Per Unit
Factory Overhead Cost Factory Overhead Cost
Flutes $ $
Clarinets
Oboes
Total $
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Flutes= 2,000*2 = 4,000 hours
Clarinets= 1,500*3 = 4,500 hours
Oboes= 1,750*1.5 = 2,625 hours
Total direct labor hours = 11,125
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 2,948,125 / 11,125
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $265 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate to each product:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Flutes= 4,000* 265= 1,060,000
Clarinets= 4,500*265= 1,192,500
Oboes= 2,625*265= 695,625
Unitary:
Flutes= 265*2= 530
Clarinets= 265*3= 795
Oboes= 265*1.5= 397.5

Being entries to recognize cost incurred in the purchase of Land improvements
Dr Building $175,324.50
Cr Cash $175,324.50
Being entries to recognize cost incurred in the purchase of Building
Explanation:
Using the appraisal method to apportion the cost of an asset to the components of the asset involves the consideration of the appraised cost of each individual item as a portion of the total cost of the asset.
Thus, given that Rodriguez Company pays $389,610 for real estate with land, land improvements, and a building
Appraised cost of
Land = $247,500
Land improvements = $55,000
Building = $247,500
Total appraised cost of the asset = $247,500 +$55,000 + $247,500
= $550,000
Allocated cost of;
Land = $247,500/$550,000 * $389,610
= $175,324.50
Land improvements = $55,000/$550,000 * $389,610
= $38,961.00
Building = $247,500/$550,000 * $389,610
= $175,324.50

ABC's beginning inventory is $2,000 and its ending inventory is $1,000. The inventory turnover is 6 times. Cost of goods sold for the year must equal:
Answer:
$9000
Explanation:
Inventory turnover is an example of an activity ratio
Activity ratios calculate the efficiency of performing daily task of a firm
Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory
Average inventory = (beginning inventory + ending inventory) / 2
($2000 + $1000) / 2 = $1500
6 = cost of goods sold / 1500
To determine cost of goods sold, multiply both sides of the equation by 1500
1500 x 6 = $9000 = cost of goods sold
Stoltenberg Co. had the following information for the month of June: Work in process beginning inventory, June 12,300units Units transferred in16,900units Work in process ending inventory, June 304,300units Beginning work-in-process inventory is 30 percent complete as to conversion. Ending work-in-process inventory is 50 percent complete as to conversion. Materials are added at the end of the process. How many units were started and completed in June
Answer:
the number of units started and completed in June is 24,900 units
Explanation:
The computation of the number of units started and completed in June is shown below;
= Opening work in process inventory + transferred units - ending work in process units
= 12,300 units + 16,900 units - 4,300 units
= 24,900 units
hence, the number of units started and completed in June is 24,900 units

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has determined that the probability of a worker dying from exposure to a hazardous chemical used in the production of fertilizer is 0.008. The cost of imposing a regulation that would ban the chemical is $31 million. If the value of a human life is equal to $8 million, how many people must the policy affect in order for the benefits to exceed the costs
Answer: More than 484 person
Explanation:
The expected benefit for one person will be:
= probability of death × value of life
= 0.008 × 8 million = 0.064 million
The number of people that the policy must the affect in order for the benefits to exceed the costs will be:
= 31 million / 0.064 million
= 484.755
Therefore, the people should be more than 484 persons to exceed costs
Langley Clinics, Inc., buys $400,000 in medical supplies each year (at gross prices) from its major supplier, Consolidated Supplies, which offers Langley terms of 2.5/10, net 45. Currently, Langley is paying the supplier the full amount due on day 45, but it is considering taking the discount, paying on day 10, and replacing the costly trade credit with a bank loan that has a 10 percent annual cost.
Required:
a. What is the amount of free trade credit that langley obtains from Consolidated Services?(assume 360 days per year throughout this problem)
b. What is the amount of costly trade credit?
c. What is the approximate annual cost of the costly trade credit?
d. Should Langley replace its trade credit with the bank loan? explain your answer.
e. If the bank loan is used, how much of the trade credit should be replaced?
Answer:
Explanation:
a. What is the amount of free trade credit that langley obtains from Consolidated Services?
Since there's a 2.5% discount, amount paid will be:
= $400000 - (2.5% × $400000)
= $400000 - $10000
= $390000
The amount of free trade credit that langley obtains from Consolidated Services since payment was made within 10 days will be:
= ($390000/360) × 10
= $1083 × 10
= $10833
b. What is the amount of costly trade credit?
Assuming Langley pays by day 45, the increase in its accounts payable will be:
= 45 x $1,083
= $48,735
Therefore, the amount of costly trade credit will be:
= Total trade credit – Free trade credit = $48,735 – $10,833
= $37,902
c. What is the approximate annual cost of the costly trade credit?
The percentage cost will be:
= 10000 / 37902
= 26.38%
d. Should Langley replace its trade credit with the bank loan?
Langley should replace the trade credit with a bank loan if it can get a bank loan that's can less than 26.38%, then the trade credit of $37902 should be replaced.
e. If the bank loan is used, how much of the trade credit should be replaced?
Only the trade credit of $37902 should be replaced.

Mountain High Ice Cream Company transferred $79,000 of accounts receivable to the Prudential Bank. The transfer was made without recourse. Prudential remits 90% of the factored amount to Mountain High and retains 10%. When the bank collects the receivables, it will remit to Mountain High the retained amount (which Mountain estimates has a fair value of $6,900) less a 3% fee (3% of the total factored amount).
Required:
Prepare the journal entry to record the transfer on the books of Mountain High assuming that the sale criteria are met.
Answer:
Debit Cash for $68,730; Debit Receivable from factor for $6,900; Debit Loss on sale of receivables for $3,370; and Credit Accounts receivable $79,000.
Explanation:
Factored amount = $79,000
Cash = Factored amount * (100% - Percentage of he factored amount retained - Rate of fee = $79,000 * (100% - 10% - 3%) = $68,730
Receivable from factor = $6,900
Loss on sale of receivables = Factored amount - Cash - Receivable from factor = $79,000 - $68,730 - $6,900 = $3,370
The journal entry will therefore look as follows:
Details Debit ($) Credit ($)
Cash 68,730
Receivable from factor 6,900
Loss on sale of receivables 3,370
Accounts receivable 79,000

Ray's Pizzeria is considering the addition of a 5th worker if this increases profit. Pizza sales increased from 300 per day to 360 per day when the 4th worker was added, indicating that the marginal product of the 4th worker was equal to blank1 - Numeric Answer Type your answer here Please type your answer to submit pizzas. If adding a 5th worker increases sales from 360 to 400, the marginal product of the fifth worker is blank2 - Numeric Answer Type your answer here pizzas.
Answer:
60 pizzas
40 pizzas
Explanation:
Marginal product measures the change in output as a result of a change in input by one unit
Marginal product = change in output / change in input
Marginal product for the 4th worker
Change in output = 360 - 300 = 60 pizzas
Change in input = 4 - 3 = 1 worker
Marginal product = 60 / 1 = 60
Marginal product for the 5th worker
Change in output = 400 - 360 = 40 pizzas
Change in input = 5 - 4 = 1
Marginal product = 40 / 1 = 40
It can be seen that marginal product decreased from 60 to 40 when the 5th worker was added. This illustrates diminishing marginal returns.
The law of diminishing returns says as more units of a variable input is added to a fixed income of production, output might increase at a point but after some time total output would increase at a decreasing rate and marginal product would be decreasing.
An asset falling under the MACRS five-year class was purchased three years ago for $200,000 (its original depreciation basis). Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at a) $60,000 and b) $80,000. Assume the applicable tax rate is 40 percent.
Answer:
(a) The cash flows is $59,040.
(b) The cash flows is $71,040.
Explanation:
From the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) Tables, the depreciation rates for the first 3 years for an asset falling under the MACRS five-year class are 20%, 32% and 19.2%. Therefore, we have:
Accumulated depreciation rate = 20% + 32% + 19.2% = 71.20%
Accumulated depreciation = Cost of the asset * Accumulated depreciation rate = $200,000 * 71.20% = $142,400
Net book value of the asset = Cost of the asset - Accumulated depreciation = $200,000 - $142,400 = $57,600
We can now proceed as follows:
(a) Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at $60,000
Capital gains = Sales proceeds - Net book value = $60,000 - $57,600 = $2,400
Capital gains tax = Capital gains * Tax rate = $2,400 * 40% = $960
Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax = $60,000 - $960 = $59,040
Therefore, the cash flows is $59,040 net sales proceeds.
(b) Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at $80,000
Capital gains = Sales proceeds - Net book value = $80,000 - $57,600 = $22,400
Capital gains tax = Capital gains * Tax rate = $22,400 * 40% = $8,960
Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax = $80,000 - $8,960 = $71,040
Therefore, the cash flows is $71,040 net sales proceeds.
The cash flows is $59,040 and $71,040 when asset are sold at $60,000 and $80,000.
What is MACRS depreciation?MACRS stands for modified accelerated cost recovery system is the depreciation system in the U.S. where the cost of the asset is recovered in a specific period through deduction.
Given:
Asset=$200,000
The depreciation rate for 5 year asset are:20%, 32%, 19.2%, 11.52%, 11.52% and 5.76%
Accumulated depreciation for 3 years=20% + 32% + 19.2% = 71.20%
=asset cost X depreciation rate for 3 years
=$200,000 X 71.20% = $142,400
Net Book value=Asset Cost - Accumulated depreciation
=$200,000 - $142,400
= $57,600
(a)Cash flows if assets sold at $60,000
Capital gains = Sales - Net book value
=$60,000 - $57,600
= $2,400
Capital gains tax = Capital gains X Tax rate
= $2,400 * 40% = $960
Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax
= $60,000 - $960 = $59,040
(b)Cash flows if assets sold at $80,000
Capital gains = Sales - Net book value
= $80,000 - $57,600
= $22,400
Capital gains tax = Capital gains X Tax rate
= $22,400 * 40% = $8,960
Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax
= $80,000 - $8,960 = $71,040
Therefore the above calculation aptly gives the solution.

Using this formula
Itemized deduction = State income taxes + Real state taxes + Gambling losses
Let plug in the formula
Itemized deduction = $13,500 + $18,900+ $6,800
Itemized deduction =$39,200
Therefore Paul's allowable itemized deductions for 2019 are $39,200
What form do some schools, especially private schools, use in addition to the FAFSA to determine how to award aid? A) FAFSA II B) Core Residency Form C) CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE D) College Access Loan (CAL) Form
Answer:
C.) CSS/ Financial aid profile
Explanation:
I took the USA Test Prep quiz.
Early deadlines are imposed by many schools and universities that use the FAFSA to calculate financial aid. To decide how to distribute their own funds, certain institutions—mostly private colleges—use an additional form called the College Scholarship Service Profile, or CSS Profile. Therefore, choice (C) is the best one.
What is CSS Profile?College students can apply for non-federal financial aid through the CSS Profile, also known as the College Scholarship Service Profile, an online application developed and administered by the College Board, a company based in the United States.
Its main purpose is to provide College Board member institutions with a thorough assessment of students and their families financially and family circumstances for use in determining their eligibility for organizational financial aid. Compared to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, it is more comprehensive.
Hence, option (C) is the most accurate.
