Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a. The Direct labor rate variance will be:

= 4220 × (44.5 - 46)

= 4220 × -1.5

= -6330 Favorable

The direct labor time variance will be:

= 46 × (4220-4160)

= 46 × 60

= 2760 Unfavorable

Total direct labor cost variance will be:

= (4220 × 44.5) - (4160 × 46)

= 187790 - 191360

= -3570 Favorable

b. The employees may have been less-experienced workers who were paid less than more-experienced workers or poorly trained, thereby resulting in a (lower) labor rate than planned.

The lower level of experience or training may have resulted in (less) efficient performance. Thus, the actual time required was (more) than standard.

The first of eight annual lease payments of $21500 due at the beginning of each year of the lease term was received and recorded on July 3, 2021. Crane had purchased the equipment for $113000. What amount of interest revenue from the lease should Crane report in its 2021 income statement

Answers

Answer:

$4,900

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What amount of interest revenue from the lease should Crane report in its 2021 income statement

Interest revenue=8%/2*($144000 - $21500)

interest revenue=4%*$122,500

interest revenue = $4,900.

Therefore the amount of interest revenue from the lease should Crane report in its 2021 income statement is $4,900

Answers

Answer:

b. $640,465.32

Explanation:

Options include "$1,800,000, $640,465, ($132,558), $614,846, $704,512"

I/Y = 0.42% [5%/12]

N = 360 [12*30]

PV = -$18,000,000 [-30000000*60%]

FV = $0

So, we calculate the PMT using financial calculator

Monthly payment (CPT)  = PMT(I/Y. N, PV, FV)

Monthly payment (CPT)  = PMT(0.42%. 360, 18000000, 0)

Monthly payment (CPT)  = $96,627.89

Before-tax cash flow = Expected year 1 net operating income - 12*PMT

Before-tax cash flow = $1,800,000 - 12*$96,627.89

Before-tax cash flow = $1,800,000 - $1,159,534.68

Before-tax cash flow = $640,465.32

A property that produces a first year NOI of $80,000 is purchased for $750,000. The NOI is expected stay constant through year 5, and to increase by 15% in the sixth year when some of the leases turn over. The NOI would then stay constant in years 6-10. The resale price in year 10 is expected to be $830,000. What is the net present value of investing in this property based on the 10-year holding period and a required return of 9.5%

Answers

Answer: $115998

Explanation:

Based on the information given, we can calculate the NOI from the 6th year which will be:

= $80,000 × (100% + 15%)

= $80,000 × 115%

= $80,000 × 1.15

= $92,000

Therefore, the net present value of the property based on the 10-year holding period and a discount rate of 9.5% will be:

= 80000(PVAF, 5 year) + 92000[PVAF,(10-5),9.5%] + 830000/(1.095)10-750000

= (80000 × 3.839) + (92000 × 2.439) + (830000 × 0.403) - 750000

= 307120 + 224388 + 334490 - 750000

= 865998 - 750000

= $115998

Therefore, the net present value is $115998

If approved, Coolidge's new depreciation expense would be $8,000,000, although there would be no effect on the economic value of the company's equipment, nor would it affect the company's tax rate, which would remain at 40%. If this proposal were implemented, what would be the company's net cash flow

Answers

Answer:

new net cash flow = $8,000,000

Explanation:

Current net cash flow before any change approved by Congress = net income + deprecaition expense = $1,800,000 + $5,000,000 = $6,800,000

Cash flow after Congress approves change = net income + new depreciation expense:

taxable income = $10,000,000 - $8,000,000 - $2,000,000 = $0

deprecaitione xpense = $8,000,000

new net cash flow = $8,000,000

Earnings this year will be $3 per share, and investors expect a 12% rate of return on stocks facing the same risks as Web Cites. a. What is the sustainable growth rate

Answers

Answer:

6%

Explanation:

Sustainable growth rate is the rate of growth a company can afford in the long term

Sustainable growth rate (g)  = b x ROE

b = retention rate. It is the portion of earnings that is not paid out as dividends = 30%

ROE = return on equity = 20%

Return on equity is an example of a profitability ratio.

Profitability ratios measure the ability of a firm to generate profits from its asset

g = 0.3 x 0.2 = 0.06 = 6%

Based on the information given  the sustainable growth rate is 6%.

Using this formula

Sustainable growth rate= ROE × Plowback ratio

Where:

ROE=20%

Plowback ratio=30%

Let plug in the formula

Sustainable growth rate = 0.20 × 0.30

Sustainable growth rate=0.06×100

Sustainable growth rate= 6.00%

Inconclusions the sustainable growth rate is 6%.

A firm has an average loan outstanding of $75,000,000 on a $100,000,000 line of credit. There is a commitment fee of 0.25% on the unused portion of the line, and the interest rate on the borrowed funds is LIBOR 175 basis points. LIBOR is 3.0%. What is the effective annual borrowing rate on the line of credit

Answers

Answer:

2.44%

Explanation:

Average outstanding loan = $75,000,000

Total line of credit = $100,000,000

Unused portion = $25,000,000 ($100,000,000-$75,000,000)

Commitment fee = 0.25%

Interest rate = 3.175% (3+0.175%)

Commitment fee = Unused portion*Commitment fee rate

Commitment fee = $25,000,000*0.0025

Commitment fee = $62,500

Interest = Average outstanding balance*Interest rate

Interest = $75,000,000*0.03175

Interest = $2,381,250

Total borrowing cost = Commitment fee + Interest

Total borrowing cost = $62,500 + $2,381,250

Total borrowing cost = $2,443,750

Effective borrowing rate = Total borrowing cost / Credit limit

Effective borrowing rate = $2,443,750/$100,000,000

Effective borrowing rate = 0.0244375

Effective borrowing rate = 2.44%

Answers

Answer:

1. $9.50 per Direct labor hour

2. $69,750

Explanation:

1. Computation for the predetermined overhead rate

First step is to calculate the Total Estimated overhead cost

Variable overhead cost $36,250

(72,500 Direct labor hours *$ 0.50 )

Add Fixed overhead cost $652,500

Total Estimated overhead cost $688,750

Now let calculate the predetermined overhead rate

Using this formula

Predetermined overhead rate = Total estimated overhead cost / Total estimated direct labor hours

Let plug in the formula

Predetermined overhead rate = $688,750 / 72,500

Predetermined overhead rate = $9.50 per Direct labor hour

Therefore Predetermined overhead rate will be $9.50 per Direct labor hour

2. Computation for the total job cost for the Xavier company Engagement

Direct Materials $43,500

Direct Labor $ 23,400

Overhead applied $2,850

(300 Direct labor * $9.50 )

Total Manufacturing cost $69,750

Therefore total job cost for the Xavier Company engagement will be $69,750

Brightstone Tire and Rubber Company has capacity to produce 204,000 tires. Brightstone presently produces and sells 156,000 tires for the North American market at a price of $100 per tire. Brightstone is evaluating a special order from a European automobile company, Euro Motors. Euro is offering to buy 24,000 tires for $86.5 per tire. Brightstone's accounting system indicates that the total cost per tire is as follows:

Direct materials $54
Direct labor 24
Factory overhead (62% variable) 24
Selling and administrative expenses (44% variable) 25
Total $127.00

Brightstone pays a selling commission equal to 4% of the selling price on North American orders, which is included in the variable portion of the selling and administrative expenses. However, this special order would not have a sales commission. If the order was accepted, the tires would be shipped overseas for an additional shipping cost of $7.65 per tire. In addition, Euro has made the order conditional on receiving European safety certification. Brightstone estimates that this certification would cost $165,424.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

July 1, 2021:

Face value of bonds = $260 million

Interest rate = 5%

Market interest rate = 7%

Payment for the bonds = $200 million

Discount on bonds = $60 million

December 31, 2021:

Semi-annual interest cash receipts = $6.5 million ($260m * 2.5%)

Semi-annual interest revenue = $7 million ($200m * 3.5%)

Amortization of bonds discount = $0.5 ($7 million - $6.5 million)

Fair value of bonds = $215 million

ouvenir sheets to stamp collectors. The postal service purchases the souvenir sheets from a supplier for $1.80 each. St. Vincent has been selling the souvenir sheets for $14.00 each and ordinarily sells about 100,000 units. To test the market, the postal service recently priced a new souvenir sheet at $12.60 and sales increased to 114,000 units. Required: 1. What total contribution margin did the postal service earn when it sold 100,000 sheets at a price of $14.00 each

Answers

Answer:

Total contribution margin= $1,220,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $1.8

Selling price= $14

Number of untis= 100,000

First, we will determine the unitary contribution margin:

Unitary contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost

Unitary contribution margin= 14 - 1.8

Unitary contribution margin= $12.2

Now, the total contribution margin:

Total contribution margin= 100,000*12.2

Total contribution margin= $1,220,000

For September, the following information is available: Accounts Receivable on September 1st is $22,400 (debit) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts on September 1st is $4,400 (credit) Services provided during September for cash $20,000 Services provided during September on-account $45,000 During the month collections on account were $34,400 and accounts written off as uncollectible were $2,000. The Walking Dead estimates bad debts at 8% of accounts receivable. After adjusting journal entries are recorded, what is the September 30th balance in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Given that,

Accounts receivables :

Beginning balance 1 September = $22,400

Services on account = $45,000

Cash collected = $34,400

Written off accounts = $2,000

Allowance for doubtful accounts:

Beginning balance 1 September = $4,400

Adjusted balance for Allowance for doubtful accounts on 30th September

= Beginning balance 1 September - Written off accounts + Bad debt expense

= $4,400 + $2,000 + ($45,000 × 8%)

= $4,400 + $2,000 + $3,600

= $6,000

Use the information presented in Northeastern Mutual Bank's balance sheet to answer the following questions. Bank's Balance Sheet Assets Liabilities and Owners' Equity Reserves $150 Deposits $1,200 Loans $600 Debt $200 Securities $750 Capital (owners' equity) $100 Suppose a new customer adds $100 to his account at Northeastern Mutual Bank, which the owners of the bank then use to make $100 worth of new loans. This would increase the loans account an

Answers

Answer:

A. Increase; Deposits

B. Initial Value 15; New Value 16

C. The aim of Capital requirement is to protect the interests of all depositors.

Explanation:

A. This would increase the loans account and INCREASE the DEPOSITS account since the double entry principle state that every Debit entry must have a corresponding Credit entry and every Credit entry must have a corresponding Debit entry, therefore based on the information given assuming the new customer adds the amount of $100 to his account at the Mutual Bank, which we were told that the owners of the bank then use to make $100 worth of new loans, in this case both the loans and deposits will be have to increase by the amount of $100.

B. Calculation to determine the leverage ratio from its initial value to a new value

Calculation for Leverage Ratio using this formula

Leverage Ratio = Reserves+Loans+Securities/Capital

Let plug in the formula

Leverage Ratio = $150+$600+$750/$100

Leverage Ratio = $1,500/$100

Leverage Ratio =15

Calculation for New Leverage Ratio

Using this formula

New Leverage Ratio=Reserves+(Loans+increase in loans)+Securities/Capital

Let plug in the formula

New Leverage Ratio=$150+($600+$100)+$750/$100

New Leverage Ratio=$150+$700+$750/$100

New Leverage Ratio=$1,600/$100

New Leverage Ratio=16

Therefore This would also bring the leverage ratio from its INITIAL VALUE of 15 to a NEW VALUE of 16

C.The aim of CAPITAL REQUIREMENT is to protect the interests of all depositors.

Answers

The product’s equilibrium price

Just simply because the price and quantity is the same

The red dot on the graph represents the product's equilibrium price.

What do you mean by demand and supply?

Demand refers to the consumer's desire and ability in order to purchase a good or service at a given period of time. There is an inverse relationship between demand and price. When price of a product increases, the demand decreases and vice versa.

Supply refers to the total amount of a given product or service a supplier offers to consumers at a given period of time. Supply is usually determined by market movement.

What does the supply and demand graph indicate?

The supply and demand graph indicates the relationship between quantity supplied and the quantity demanded. In the graph it is seen that the demand curve and supply curve meet a point, which is the point of intersection (the red dot) and also the point of equilibrium.

Equilibrium is a state of rest. At equilibrium demand matches supply at the same price. If a market is at its equilibrium price and quantity, then it has no reason to move away from that point, as it's balancing both, quantity supplied and the quantity demanded.

However, in the graph the equilibrium price represents the point where the supply of a product is equal to the demand for that product. Thus, red dot on the graph represents the product's equilibrium price where supply meets demand.

Hence, option A is correct.

Consider the following information for Watson Power Co.: Debt: 3,500 7 percent coupon bonds outstanding, $1,000 par value, 20 years to maturity, selling for 102 percent of par; the bonds make semiannual payments. Common stock: 84,000 shares outstanding, selling for $59 per share; the beta is 1.06. Preferred stock: 10,000 shares of 6 percent preferred stock outstanding, currently selling for $104 per share. Market: 8.5 percent market risk premium and 5.5 percent risk-free rate. Assume the company's tax rate is 35 percent. Find the WACC.

Answers

Answer:

9. 82 %

Explanation:

WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt.

Remember to always use the After tax cost of debt :

Cost of Debt :

PV = - $1,020

FV = $1,000

N = 20 x 2 = 40

P/YR = 2

PMT = ($1,000 x 7 %) ÷ 2 = $35

I/YR = ???

The Cost (I/YR) is calculated as 6.82 %. The  After tax cost of debt is 4.433 %.

Cost of Equity :

Cost of Equity = Return from risk free security + beta x market premium'

                        = 5.5 % + 1.06 x 8.5 %

                        = 14.51 %

Cost of Preferred Stock :

Cost of Preferred Stock = 6 %

therefore,

WACC = 14.51 % x 51.8 % +  6 % x 10.87 %+ 4.433 % x 37.3 %

            = 9. 82 %

After the issuance of its year 1 financial statements, Serenity Inc. discovered a computational error of $150,000 in the calculation of December 31, year 1 inventory. The error resulted in a $150,000 overstated in the cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, year 1. In October, year 2, Serenity paid $500,000 to settle litigation initiated it during year 1. In the financial statements for year 2, the year 1 retained earnings balance, as previously reported, should be adjusted by (ignore income taxes):_________-

b. $500,000 debit
c. $150,000 credit
d. $650,000 credit

Answers

Answer: C. $150,000 credit

Explanation:

In the financial statements for year 2, it should be noted that the year 1 retained earnings balance, should be adjusted by $150,000 credit.

The corrections of errors should be treated as the period adjustments before. In this case, the $150,000 overstatement for the cost of goods that was sold in the previous year, will then be credited to the beginning balance of the retained earnings.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
