Corbel Corporation has two divisions: Division A and Division B. Last month, the company reported a contribution margin of $44,300 for Division A. Division B had a contribution margin ratio of 40% and its sales were $232,000. Net operating income for the company was $32,600 and traceable fixed expenses were $55,800. Corbel Corporation's common fixed expenses were:________.
a) $48,700
b) $55,800
c) $104,500
d) $137,100
Answer:
a. $48,700
Explanation:
Contribution margin for Division A = $44,300
Contribution margin for Division B = 40% * Sales Value = 40% * $232,000 = $92,800
Total contribution margin = $44,300 + $92,800 = $137,100
Office Segment Margin =Total contribution margin - Traceable fixed expenses
Office Segment Margin = $137,100 - $55,800
Office Segment Margin = $81,300
Net Operating Income = Office Segment Margin - Common Fixed Expenses
Common Fixed Expenses = Office Segment Margin - Net Operating Income
Common Fixed Expenses = $81,300 - $32,600
Common Fixed Expenses = $48,700

Pacifica Industrial Products Corporation makes two products, Product H and Product L. Product H is expected to sell 40,000 units next year and Product L is expected to sell 8,000 units. A unit of either product requires 0.4 direct labor-hours.
The company's total manufacturing overhead for the year is expected to be $1,632,000.
Required:
1-a. The company currently applies manufacturing overhead to products using direct labor-hours as the allocation base. If this method is followed, how much overhead cost per unit would be applied to each product? Product H Product L Overhead cost per unit
1-b. Compute the total amount of overhead cost that would be applied to each product Product H Product L Total Total overhead cost
2. Management is considering an activity-based costing system and would like to know what impact this change might have on product costs. For purposes of discussion, it has been suggested that all of the manufacturing overhead be treated as a product-level cost. The total manufacturing overhead would be divided in half between the two products, with $816,000 assigned to Product H and $816,000 assigned to Product L If this suggestion is followed, how much overhead cost per unit would be assigned to each product? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

An investor implements a collar strategy by purchasing 100 shares of the Tesla stock at a price of $840 per share, selling 100 call options on the Tesla stock with a strike price $880 per share, and buying 100 put option on the Tesla with a strike price of $800. The premium of the call option is $35 per share and the premium of the put option is $32. At which stock price at the maturity of the option will the investor break even
Answer: $837
Explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question:
Purchase price = $840 per share
Premium of call option = $35 per share
Premium of put option = $32 per share
From the above, the premium received will be:
= $35 - $32 = $3
Investors break even will then be:
= Purchase price - Premium received
= $840 - $3
= $837
On August 1, 2020, Ascent Corp. borrowed $80,000 cash on an 8-month note payable with a 7% annual rate that requires Ascent to pay all the interest and principal on April 1, 2021. Assuming the necessary adjusting entry to accrue interest expense was properly recorded on December 31, 2020, the journal entries to record the payment of interest on April 1, 2021 will include a (Round to the nearest whole dollar, if necessary):
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Interest payable:
= Borrowed amount × rate of interest × given months ÷ total months
= $80,000 × 7% × 5 ÷ 12
= $2,333.33
And,
Interest expense:
= Borrowed amount × rate of interest × given months ÷ total months
= $80,000 × 7% × 3 ÷ 12
= $1,400
So here for recording the payment of interest the interest payable is debited for $2,333.33
The same is to be considered
During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded: Twenty thousand pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.35 per pound. All of the material purchased was used to produce 4,000 units of Zoom. 750 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $14,925. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The following can be derived from the question:
Actual quantity = 20,000 pounds
Actual price = $2.35
Standard price = $2.50 per unit
Actual hours = 750 hours.
The standard quantity will be calculated as:
= 4,000 units × 4.6
= 18,400 pounds
The Actual rate will be calculated as:
= Total labor cost / Actual hours
= $14,925 / 750
= $19.90
Standard hours will be:
= 0.2 hours × 4,000 units
= 800 hours.
Standard rate = $18 per hour
1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month.
Material price variance:
= (AQ × AP) - (AQ × SP)
= (20,000 × $2.35) - (20,000 × $2.50)
= 47000 - 50000
= -3000
Material quantity variance:
= (AQ × SP) - (SQ × SP)
= (20,000 × $2.50) - (18,400 × $2.50)
= 50,000 - 46000
= 4000
2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.
Labor rate variance:
= (AH × AR) - (AH × SR)
= ($750 × $19.90) - (750 × $18)
= 14925 - 13500
= 1425
Labor efficiency variance:
= (AH × SR) - (SH × SR)
= (750 × $18) - (800 × $18)
= 13500 - 14400
= 900

Hygdye218 Corporation has two divisions: the Domestic Division and the Foreign Division.The Hygdye218 Corporation's net operating income is $84,300.The Domestic Division's divisional segment margin is $48,200 and the Foreign Division's divisional segment margin is $172,000.
What is the amount of the Hygdye218 Corporation's common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions?
A. $132,500
B. $135,900
C. $256,300
D. $220,200
Answer:
B.$135,900
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the amount of the Hygdye218 Corporation's common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions
Using this formula
Net operating income = Segment margin - Common fixed expenses
Let plug in the formula
$84,300 = ($48,200 +$172,000) - Common fixed expenses
$84,300= $220,200 - Common fixed expenses
Common fixed expenses = $220,200 - $84,300
Common fixed expenses= $135,900
Therefore the amount of the Hygdye218 Corporation's common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions will be $135,900

Which factor would influence the premiums of health insurance?
A.) Building Size
B.) Deductible
C.) Elimination Period
D.) Profession
Answer:
B.) Deductible
Explanation:
A deductible is an amount that the insured must pay himself/herself before the insurance company starts paying his/her medical expenses. E.g. if your deductible is $1,000, before your medical expenses are paid by your insurance company, you will have to pay the $1,000 yourself.
The higher the deductible, the lower the insurance premium. This applies to every single type of insurance policy where deductibles might apply.

You are purchasing a home for $220,000. The down payment is 30% and the balance will be financed with a 20-year mortgage at 9% and 2 discount points. You put down a deposit of $5,000 (applied to the down payment) when the sales contract was signed. You also have these expenses: credit report, $70; appraisal fee, $110; title insurance premium, 1% of amount financed; title search, $225; and attorney's fees, $600. Find your amount due at the closing.
Based on the various payments on the home, the amount due at closing is $66,625.
What is the amount due on closing?$5,000 has already been taken from the down payment which leaves:

The following units of an inventory item were available for sale during the year: Beginning inventory 8 units at $49 First purchase 15 units at $51 Second purchase 27 units at $53 Third purchase 14 units at $55 The firm uses the periodic inventory system. During the year, 26 units of the item were sold. The value of ending inventory rounded to the nearest dollar using average cost is (Round average cost per unit to three decimal place.)
Answer:
$1,994
Explanation:
The computation of the ending inventory is shown below:
But before that the average cost is
= Total amount of purchased ÷ total units available
= (8 units × $49 + 15 units × $51 + 27 units × $53 + 14 units × $55) ÷ (8 units + 15 units + 27 units + 14 units)
= ($392 + $765 + $1,431 + $770) ÷ (64 units)
= $52.469
Now the ending inventory units is
= 64 units - 26 units
= 38 units
So, the ending inventory is
= 38 units × $52.469
= $1,994
Pine Street Inc. makes unfinished bookcases that it sells for $59. Production costs are $38 variable and $10 fixed. Because it has unused capacity, Pine Street is considering finishing the bookcases and selling them for $75. Variable finishing costs are expected to be $8 per unit with no increase in fixed costs. Prepare an analysis on a per unit basis showing whether Pine Street should sell unfinished or finished bookcases.
Answer:
It is more profitable to continue processing the bookcases.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total unitary production cost of each option:
Unfinished:
Total cost= 38 + 10= $48
Finished:
Total cost= 48 + 8= $56
Now, based on the unitary contribution margin, we decide which option is more profitable.
Unfinished:
Unitary contribution margin= 59 - 48= $11
Finished:
Unitary contribution margin= 75 - 56= $19
It is more profitable to continue processing the bookcases.

Answer:
The answer is "Option E".
Explanation:
Complete values are the number of dollars that can be traded for just a specified volume.
Cash flows calculate that equity capital to a workforce. In particular, over the period, companies generally have higher equity shares rated to improve their output through investment as well as the automation of a working system. The capital adequacy ratio (K/L) was its proportion of assets to capital levels of intensity.
Labor's high wealth Whenever the labor costs are high, companies will try to replace assets with labor. For example, waitstaff in Europe is fitted with a mitral valve that directly delivers the orders to a kitchen.
It allows the use of labor less efficient and far less necessary. It may not be necessary or desirable to spend in the command post equipment to relatively low labor costs, thus providing a feeling of sadness ratio. The brief variation in labor is simpler than the stock of capital. Financial performance to work is tending may rise in downturns as companies lose their jobs. Migrants and creating a company High national salaries of areas with high working capital will usually occur.
This would allow employers to shift from a low investment wage to a high wage growth ratio. It reduces real wage inequalities and eliminates the investment difference. In western China, for example, workers have moved to SE China, of higher wages.
The sensitivity of a system for disciplining and possibly terminating employees is important, and it is critical that the system be seen as fair. Employees form conclusions about the system's fairness based on the system's outcomes and procedures and the way managers treat employees when carrying out those procedures. Three principles of justice are outcome fairness, procedural justice, and interactional justice. Outcome fairness involves the ends of a discipline process or action, while procedural and interactional justice focus on the means to those ends. Not only is behavior ethical that is in accord with these principles, but research has also linked the last two categories of justice with employee satisfaction and productivity. This activity is important because it will give you practice with the three basic principles of justice. The goal of this activity is to discuss how employees determine whether the organization treats them fairly. Read each scenario, then select the appropriate principle of justice to which it pertains. 1.

Question 2. Suppose the mean age of video game players is 28, the standard deviation is 9 years, and the distribution is bell shaped. To assist a video game company’s marketing department in obtaining demographics to increase sales, determine the proportion of players who are
a. between 19 and 28
b. between 28 and 37
c. older than 37
Answer:
0.34134 ; 0.84134; 0.15866
Explanation:
Given that:
Mean (m) = 28
Standard deviation (s) = 9
Proportion of players;
a. between 19 and 28
P(x < 28) - P(x < 19)
Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation
[Z = (28 - 28) / 9] - [Z = (19 - 28) /9]
P(Z < 0) - P(Z < - 1)
0.5 - 0.15866 [Z probability calculator]
= 0.34134
b. between 28 and 37
P(x < 37) - P(x < 28)
Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation
[Z = (37 - 28) / 9] - [Z = (28 - 28) /9]
P(Z < 1) - P(Z < 0)
0.84134 - 0 [Z probability calculator]
= 0.84134
c. older than 37
P(x > 37)
Z = (x - m) / s
Z = (37 - 28) / 9
Z = 9/9 = 1
P(Z > 1) = 1 - P(Z < 1)
P(Z > 1) = 1 - 0.84134
P(Z > 1) = 1 - 0.84134
P(Z > 1) = 0.15866

Fernando, a trader, wants to buy 1,000 shares of XYZ stock, while a second trader, Ally, is willing to sell 1,500 shares of the same stock. Unfortunately, Fernando and Ally don’t know one another and must complete their transactions using the stock exchange’s market-making dealer. XYZ’s market maker is willing to sell her shares for $26.80 per share and purchase additional shares for $26.25 per share. Select the most appropriate values in the following table:
Bid price 26.25, 25.80, 31.50
Ask price 40.20,26.80,26.25
Bid-ask spread 26.25,87.67,0.55
If the market maker is willing to purchase the entire block of 1,500 shares from Ally and, from that block, resell 1,000 shares to Fernando, then the market maker’s net profit from Fernando’s transaction—excluding any inventory effects—will be:_________
a) 275,00
b) 825.00,
c) 503.00,
d) 550.00
Answer:
1. The characteristic that accurately describes the stock market is:
An active market that determines the price of a firm’s shares.
2. The statement that best describes the bid-ask spread is:
The difference between the price at which a dealer is willing to buy a security and the price at which a dealer is willing to sell it.
3. Bid price = $26.25; Ask price = $26.80
4. Fernando’s transaction—excluding any inventory effects—will be:_________
d) 550.00
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
XYZ's market maker:
Sell shares at $26.80 * 1,000 = $26,800
Buy shares at $26.25 * 1,000 = 26,250 ($39,375 - 13,125)
Net profit $550
Thus, the inventory of shares = $13,125 ($26.25 * 500)
b) The bid price is the amount per share that the XYZ market maker is willing to buy the 1,500 Ally shares. The ask price is the amount per share that the market maker is willing to sell the 1,000 shares to Fernando. The bid-ask spread represents the difference between the bid price and the ask price. It is the profit margin for the market maker.
Annual maintenance cost for a particular section of highway pavement are $3,000.The placement of a new surface would reduce the annual maintenance cost to $400 per year for the first 5 years, and to $800 per year for the next 5 years. After 10 years, the annual maintenance cost would again be $3,000. If the maintenance costs are the only saving, how much investment can be justified for the new surface, by assuming interest at 6%
Answer:
$17,877
Explanation:
initial outlay = ?
net cash flows years 1 to 5 = $3,000 - $400 = $2,600
net cash flows years 6 to 10 = $3,000 - $800 = $2,200
assuming that the discount rate is 6%, we need to determine the maximum amount of initial investment that would result in the NPV = 0
in order to do this we have to calculate the present value of the future cash flows:
PV = $2,600/1.06 + $2,600/1.06² + $2,600/1.06³ + $2,600/1.06⁴ + $2,600/1.06⁵ + $2,200/1.06⁶ + $2,200/1.06⁷ + $2,200/1.06⁸ + $2,200/1.06⁹ + $2,200/1.06¹⁰ = $17,877
that means that the maximum amount that can be invested = $17,877, and that way the NPV = 0
“EBIT is generally considered to be independent of financial leverage, because EBIT is the result of a firm’s operating effectiveness. However, with an excessive debt levels, EBIT might actually be influenced by financial leverage.”
Comment on the statement above.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
EBIT is known as an accounting measure to determine the profit level of a firm. It is an acronym of Earnings Before Interest and Taxes.
EBIT is generally considered to be independent of financial leverage because EBIT is the result of a firm’s operating effectiveness.
This is true because, EBIT is based on the firm's level of sales and cost of operation, of which financial leverage has no effects on it.
However, with excessive debt levels, EBIT might be influenced by financial leverage.
This implies that even though the financial leverage of a firm has no direct influence on EBIT, in a situation whereby a firm is operating at huge deficits, every aspect of the film will be concerned. This will include staff, customers, investors, and operational activities, thereby affecting the firm's sales and cost of operation. As a result, this will ultimately affect the firm's EBIT.
Kingbird Industries had one patent recorded on its books as of January 1, 2020. This patent had a book value of $249,600 and a remaining useful life of 8 years. During 2020, Kingbird incurred research and development costs of $90,000 and brought a patent infringement suit against a competitor. On December 1, 2020, Kingbird received the good news that its patent was valid and that its competitor could not use the process Kingbird had patented. The company incurred $93,500 to defend this patent.
Required: At what amount should patent(s) be reported on the December 31, 2020, balance sheet, assuming monthly amortization of patents?
Answer:
The amount patent(s) should be reported on the December 31, 2020, balance sheet, assuming monthly amortization of patents, is $32,300.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Patent book value = $249,600
Remaining useful years January 1, 2020 = 8
Remaining useful months of the patents from January 1, 2020 = Remaining useful years January 1, 2020 * 12 8 * 12 = 96
Monthly Patent book value = Patent book value / Remaining useful months = $249,600 = $2,600
Patent book value amortized from January 1, 2020 to December 1, 2020 = Monthly Patent book value * 12 = $2,600 * 12 = $31,200
Legal fee incurred = $93,500
Number of months from January 1, 2020 to December 1, 2020 = 11
Relevant months of legal fee incurred starting from December 1, 2020 = Remaining useful months of the patents from January 1, 2020 - Number of months from January 1, 2020 to December 1, 2020 = 96 - 11 = 85
Monthly legal fee = Legal fee incurred / Relevant months of legal fee incurred starting from December 1, 2020 = $93,500 / 85 = $1,100
Amount to report = Patent book value amortized from January 1, 2020 to December 1, 2020 + Monthly legal fee for December 1, 2020 only = $31,200 + $1,100 = $32,300
Therefore, the amount patent(s) should be reported on the December 31, 2020, balance sheet, assuming monthly amortization of patents, is $32,300.
