will always equal cash collections in a month.
only results from credit sales.
is only recorded after cash is collected.

Answers

Answer:

may be recorded before cash is collected.

Explanation:

Sales revenue "may be recorded before cash is collected."

This is according to Accrual accounting, which unlike the cash model that requires payments to be made before sales revenue is recorded.

In the Accrual accounting model, sales revenue recording is not based on cash collection before it is recorded. Here, the revenue is recorded in as much the transferred goods are made and collection of payment is determined or expected.

An asset used in a four-year project falls in the five-year MACRS class for tax purposes. The asset has an acquisition cost of $6,020,000 and will be sold for $1,220,000 at the end of the project. If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the aftertax salvage value of the asset

Answers

Answer:

The after-tax salvage value of the asset is:

= $793,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Asset acquisition cost = $6,020,000

Salvage value = $1,220,000

MACRS Depreciation Expenses = $4,800,000

Project useful life or project duration = 5 years

Tax rate = 35%

Tax expense = $427,000

After-tax salvage value = $793,000 ($1,220,000 - $427,000)

b) The salvage value of the project asset is the recovery or residual value after depreciation expenses have been recognized over the project asset's useful life.  Depreciation is an accounting method of spreading the cost of an asset over its useful life.  There are many depreciation methods, including straight-line, double-declining, unit-of-production, sum-of-the-years digits, etc.

Marshall Motor Homes currently sells 1,160 Class A motor homes, 2,170 Class C motor homes, and 1,600 pop-up trailers each year. It is considering adding a midrange camper and expects that if it does so the firm can sell 800 of them. However, if the new camper is added, the firm expects its Class A sales to decline by 8 percent while the Class C camper sales decline to 1,950 units. The sales of pop-ups will not be affected. Class A motor homes sell for an average of $179,000 each. Class C homes are priced at $64,500, and the pop-ups sell for $5,700 each. The new midrange camper will sell for $26,900. What is the erosion cost of the new camper

Answers

Answer:

$30,801,200

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the erosion cost of the new camper

Erosion cost (new camper) = [0.08 × 1,160 × $179,000] + [(2,170 − 1,950) × $64,500]

Erosion cost (new camper)=$16,611,200+$14,190,000

Erosion cost (new camper) = $30,801,200

Therefore the erosion cost of the new camper will be $30,801,200

Wright Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment, which would have an initial cost of $1,000,000 and a 5-year life. There is no salvage value for the equipment. The increase in cash flow each year of the equipment's life would be as follows: Year 1 $ 379,000 Year 2 $ 354,000 Year 3 $ 289,000 Year 4 $ 234,000 Year 5 $ 189,000 What is the payback period

Answers

Answer:

The payback period is 2 years and 337 days to cover the initial investment.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cash flows:

Year 1 $ 379,000

Year 2 $ 354,000

Year 3 $ 289,000

Year 4 $ 234,000

Year 5 $ 189,000

Initial investment= $1,000,000

The payback period is the time required for the cash flows to cover the initial investment:

Year 1= 379,000 - 1,000,000= -621,000

Year 2= 354,000 - 621,000= -267,000

Year 3= 289,000 - 267,000= 22,000

To be more accurate:

(267,000 / 289,000)= 0.923*365= 337

The payback period is 2 years and 337 days to cover the initial investment.

Answers

Answer:

Annual deposit= $2,984.69

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the Future Value of the lumpsum investment using the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 10,000*(1.12^4)

FV= $15,735.19

Now, the annual deposit to cover the difference:

Difference= 30,000 - 15,735.19= 14,264.81

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (14,264.81*0.12) / [(1.12^4) - 1]

A= $2,984.69

Todd has a $100,000 25-year mortgage with a 12% nominal interest rate convertible monthly. The first payment is due one month after the mortgage is taken out. Twelve years after taking out the mortgage (after making his 144th payment), he refinances with a new nominal interest rate of 8%, again convertible monthly. The new mortgage will be paid off on the same date as the original one. Calculate the difference in the monthly mortgage payment after refinancing.

Answers

Answer:

The right solution is "$178.86".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Interest rate,

= 10%

New nominal interest rate,

= 8%

Years,

= 24

As per the question,

On the original loan, the annul installments will be:

=  [tex]100000\times 0.01\times 1.01^{\frac{300}{1.01^{300-1}}}[/tex]

=  [tex]1053.22[/tex] ($)

As we know,

The remaining 156 instalments are charged throughout the PV after the 144th deposit,

=  [tex]1053.22\times \frac{(1.01^{156-1})}{(0.01\times 1.01^{156}})[/tex]

=  [tex]83,017.90[/tex] ($)

On the refinanced loan, the annul installments will be:

=  [tex]83017.90\times 0.01\times \frac{1.01^{300}}{(1.01^{300-1})}[/tex]

=  [tex]874.36[/tex] ($)

hence,

After refinancing, the difference in mortgage will be:

=  [tex]Annual \ installment \ on \ original \ loan-Annual \ installment \ on \ refinanced \ loan[/tex]

=  [tex]1053.22-874.36[/tex]

=  [tex]178.86[/tex] ($)

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $24,000

Book Value = $28,000

Explanation:

Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation for the period that the asset is in use in the business.

Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated Useful Life

therefore,

Depreciation Charge = ($52,000 - $4,000) ÷ 4

                                     = $12,000

we know that,

Accumulated depreciation = Sum of all depreciation to date

and

Book Value is the Costs less Accumulated depreciation

thus,

Balances for the Next 2 years will be as follows

Year 1

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $12,000

Book Value = $40,000

Year 2

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $24,000

Book Value = $28,000

The income tax rate is 30%. If the required rate of return is 10%, how much is the net present value of this project

Answers

Answer:

$20,138.74

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

To determine cash flow, use this formula

Cash flow = (revenue - cost - depreciation) (1 - tax rate) + depreciation

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(200,000 - 10,000) / 3 = 63,333

(100,000 - 5000 - 63,333) x ( 1 - 0.3) + 63,333 = 85499.90

Cash flow in year 0 = $-200,000

Cash flow in year 1 = 85499.90

Cash flow in year 2 = 85499.90

Cash flow in year 3 = 85499.90 + 10,000 = 95,499.90

I = 10

NPV = $20,138.74

Using this formula

Ending tax year Barnaby's basis in the partnership=[BBB Partnership basis+( Share of debt-Share of partnership debt)+ Share of Partnership's income +Share of partnership's nontaxable income-Cash distributions]

Let plug in the formula

Ending tax year Barnaby's basis in the partnership =$50,000 + ($8,000-$5,000) + $20,000 + $1,000 - $12,000

Ending tax year Barnaby's basis in the partnership =$50,000 + $3,000 + $20,000 + $1,000 - $12,000

Ending tax year Barnaby's basis in the partnership = =$62,000

Therefore Barnaby's basis at the end of the tax year will be $62,000

In the most recent month, the total actual fixed manufacturing overhead was $8,340 and the company actually worked 6,400 machine-hours during the month. The standard hours allowed for the actual output of the month totaled 6,480 machine-hours. What was the overall fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance for the month

Answers

Answer:

$144 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the overall fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance for the month is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Budgeted manufacturing overhead is

= 6600 × $1.20  

= $7,920

And,

Manufacturing overhead applied is

= Standard hours × Predetermined overhead rate

= 6480 × $1.20 = $7,776

So, fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance is

= Fixed overhead applied - budgeted fixed overhead

= $7,776 - $7,920

= $144 unfavorable

An object was thrown from rest upward with an initial velocity of 10m/s with time frame of 6s find the distance of the object from it's resting point​

Answers

Answer:

5.10 m

Explanation:

Given that :

Initial Velocity, u = 10m/s

Time taken, t = 6s

Distance traveled by the object , s

The final velocity, v at this point = 0

Upward throw, g = - (negative)

Using the relation :

u² =. V²-2gs

g = 9.8 m/s

10² = 0² - 2(9.8)*S

100 = 19.6S

S = 100 / 19.6

Distance traveled = 5.10 m

Chavez S.A., a Venezuelan company, wishes to borrow $8,000,000 for eight weeks (maturity). A rate of 6.250% per year is quoted by potential lenders in Great Britain, and Switzerland. British, and the Swiss-Euro bond definitions of interest (day count conventions) are 56 days and 60 days, respectively. Numbers of days in a financial year are 360. From which source should Chavez borrow?

Answers

Answer:

Chavez should borrow from the British market.

Explanation:

We need to compare the interest payment of both markets to make the decision

First, calculate the Interest payment in case, if borrowed from the British market

Interest Payment ( British ) = Principal Value x Interest rate x Time fraction

Interest Payment ( British ) = $8,000,000 x 6.250% x 56/360

Interest Payment ( British ) = $77,777.78

First, calculate the Interest payment in case if borrowed from Swiss market

Interest Payment ( Swiss ) = Principal Value x Interest rate x Time fraction

Interest Payment ( Swiss ) = $8,000,000 x 6.250% x 60/360

Interest Payment ( Swiss ) = $83,333.33

As the British market offers a lower rate, Chavez should borrow from the British market.

The bonds currently sell for $896.87. If the firm's marginal tax rate is 25%, what is the firm's after-tax cost of debt? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer: 7.67%

Explanation:

To solve this, the financial calculator will be needed

Present value = -896.87

Future Value = 1,000

N = [(25 - 5years) × 2 = 40

PMT = $45

Given the above information, we will press the financial calculator as we'll press CPT after which we then press I/Y and we'll get 5.11%

Then, the the firm's after-tax cost of debt will be:

= (5.11% x 2 )(1 - 0.25)

= (0.0511 × 2) (0.75)

= 0.07665

= 7.665%

= 7.67%
