Answer:
Accounts Receivable $8,820
To Sales Revenue $8,820
Explanation:
The journal entry to record the sales revenue is shown below:
Accounts receivable A/c Dr $8,820
To Sales revenue A/c $8,820
(Being merchandise sold on credit basis)
For recording this we debited the account receivable as it increased the assets and credited the sales revenue as it also increased the revenue
The computation of sales revenue is shown below:
= Sales revenue - discount
= $9,000 - $9,000 × 2%
= $9,000 - $180
= $8,820

When domestic firms enter other countries, they must typically deal with a number of issues related to their advertising. These include all of the following except: language barriers limited media available high-priced media markets lack of accurate media information
Answer: limited media available
Explanation:
When domestic firms enter into another country, they typically deal with a number of issues that are related to their advertising. One of the issue is language barrier. From example, if a firm that come from an English speaking country moves to another country like France which is French speaking, this can bring about a language barrier due to the language difference.
Other challenges are high-priced media markets and the lack of accurate media information. Dur to th fact that they're just moving into a different country, they may be charged higher than the normal price and may not have the accurate media information that are needed.
Therefore, limited media available is the right option because this is not a challenge. Media availability is usually available for everyone.

The following costs result from the production and sale of 1,000 drum sets manufactured by Tight Drums Company for the year ended December 31. 2019. The drum sets sell for $500 each. The company has a 25% income tax rate. For each dollar of sales, how much is left to cover fixed costs and contribute to operating income.
Answer:
$0.72
Explanation:
total direct materials = $125,000
total variable selling costs = $15,000
total variable costs = $140,000
variable cost per unit = $140,000 / 1,000 units = $140 per unit
contribution margin ratio = (sales price - variable cost) / sales price = ($500 - $140) / $500 = 72%
this means that per dollar of sales, $0.72 are left to cover fixed costs and contribute to operating income
Lily Products Company is considering an investment in one of two new product lines. The investment required for either product line is $540,000. The net cash flows associated with each product are as follows:Year Liquid Soap Body Lotion 1 $170,000 $90,000 2 150,000 90,000 3 120,000 90,000 4 100,000 90,000 5 70,000 90,000 6 40,000 90,000 7 40,000 90,000 8 30,000 90,000Total $720,000 $720,000a. Recommend a product offering to Lily Products Company, based on the cash payback period for each product line. b. Why is one product line preferred over the other, even though they both have the same total net cash flows through eight periods?
Answer:
Liquid soap
B. The liquid soap would be chosen because its pay back period is shorter than that of the body lotion.
even though both projects have the same total cash flows, the liquid soap project has greater cash flows in the ealier years compared to the other project. This makes the amount invested to be recovered more quickly and this makes it more desirable.
Explanation:
Cash payback period measures how long it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flow.
Cash payback for the liquid soap.
Amount invested = $-540,000
In the first year , the amount recovered = $- 540,000 + $170,000 = $-370,000
In the second year , the amount recovered = $-370,000 + 150,000 = $-220,000
In the third year , the amount recovered = $- 220,000 + 120,000 =$ -100,000
In the 4th year, the amount recovered = $ -100,000 + $100,000 =0
The total amount invested is recovered In the 4th year
Cash payback period for the body option =
Amount invested / net cash flows
$540,000 / $90,000 = 6 years
The amount invested is recovered In the 6th year
The liquid soap would be chosen because its pay back period is shorter than that of the body lotion.
even though both projects have the same total cash flows, the liquid soap project has greater cash flows in the ealier years compared to the other project. This makes the amount invested to be recovered more quickly and this makes it more desirable.

A recent medical study reports new benefits of cycling. Simultaneously, the price of the parts needed to make bikes falls. The demand curve would _________ and the supply curve would__________
Answer:
The demand curve would shift to the right and the supply curve would shift to the right
Explanation:
There will be a right shift in demand curve when there is an increase in demand, while there will be a right shift in supy curve when there is an increase in number of sellers or suppliers.
Here, a new medical study reports the benefits of cycling, and the price of parts needed to make bikes fall simultaneously, it is believed that the demand for bikes would increase.
Also, considering the fact that parts needed to produce bikes fall, there would likely be more producers of bike and this will also increase the supply of bikes.
Therefore, since there would be an increase in demand and supply of bikes, the demand curve for bikes would shift to the right and the supply curve would also shift to the right.
Miscavage Corporation has two divisions: the Beta Division and the Alpha Division. The Beta Division has sales of $580,000, variable expenses of $301,600, and traceable fixed expenses of $186,500. The Alpha Division has sales of $510,000, variable expenses of $178,500, and traceable fixed expenses of $222,100. The total amount of common fixed expenses not traceable to the individual divisions is $235,500. What is the company's net operating income? Select one: a. $374,400 b. $201,300 c. $609,900 d. ($34,200)
Answer:
Net income= -$34,200
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beta Division:
Sales= $580,000
Variable expenses= $301,600
Traceable fixed expenses of $186,500.
Income= 91,900
Alpha Division:
Sales of $510,000
Variable expenses of $178,500
Traceable fixed expenses of $222,100.
Income= 109,400
The total amount of common fixed expenses not traceable to the individual divisions is $235,500.
We need to deduct from the income of each division the not traceable fixed costs.
Net income= 91,900 + 109,400 - 235,500
Net income= -$34,200
A municipal power plant uses natural gas from an existing, leaky, pipeline at an annual cost of $40,000 per year. A new pipeline would initially cost $100,000, but it would reduce the annual cost of natural gas to $10,000 per year. Assume an analysis period of 25 years and no salvage value for either pipeline. The interest rate is 6%. Using annual equivalent cost (AEC), should the new pipeline be built?
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the annual equivalent cost by using following formula:-
Annual Equivalent Cost (AEC) = Initial Cost × [Interest Rate × (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years ÷ (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years - 1} + Annual Cost Per Year
= $100,000 × [0.06 × (1 + 0.06)^25 ÷ (1 + 0.06)^25 - 1] + $10,000
= $100,000 × [0.06 × 4.291871 ÷ 4.291871 - 1] + $10,000
= $100,000 × [0.2575123 ÷ 3.291871] + $10,000
= $100,000 × 0.07823 + $10,000
= $7,823 + $10,000
= $17,823
According to the analysis, the annual cost of new pipeline $17,823 is less than 40,000. So the new pipeline should built.

Explanation:
A sewage treatment revenue bond issue is being underwritten on a negotiated basis. The offering consists of $50,000,000 par value of term bonds. The underwriter has agreed to a spread of $45.00 for each $5,000 bond. The manager has set the additional takedown at $20.00 per bond and the selling concession at $22.00 per bond. If a selling group member sells a $5,000 par value bond directly to the public, the selling group member earns:____________
Answer:
The multiple choices are :
a.$8
b.$20
c.$22
d.$45
The correct option is C.$22
Explanation:
The earnings accruing to the selling group is the selling concession of $22 per $5,000 per bond.
Option A is obviously wrong as there is nothing in the questions that suggest earnings of $8 per bond for the selling group.
Option D is wrong as well because $45 per bond is the spread which is the extra yield to bondholders when compared to investment in government securities
Meson Productions is a price taker. Meson produces large spools of electrical wire in a highly competitive market; thus, the company uses target pricing. The current market price of the electric wire is $770 per unit. The company has $3,000,000 in average assets, and the desired profit is a return of 5% on assets. Assume all products produced are sold. The company provides the following information:
Sales volume 110,000 units per year
Variable costs $660 per unit
Fixed costs $14,000,000 per year
If variable costs cannot be reduced, how much reduction in fixed costs will be needed to achieve the profit target?
A. $7,750,000
B. $7,600,000
C. $12,150,000
D. $12,000,000
Answer:
Instructions are below
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The current market price of the electric wire is $770 per unit.
The company has $3,000,000 in average assets, and the desired profit is a return of 5% on assets.
Sales volume 110,000 units per year
Variable costs $660 per unit
Fixed costs $14,000,000 per year
The company's objective is 5% of average assets. In this case, $150,000.
Total contribution margin= 110,000*110= 12,100,000
Fixed costs= (14,000,000)
Net operating profit= (1,900,000)
Target profit= 150,000
Target fixed costs= Contribution margin - target profit
Target fixed costs= 12,100,000 - 150,000= 11,950,000
Prove:
Total contribution margin= 110,000*110= 12,100,000
Fixed costs= (11,950,000)
Net operating profit= 150,000
Powell Plastics, Inc. (PP) currently has zero debt. Its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $80,000, and it is a zero growth company. PP’s current cost of equity is 10%, and its tax rate is 40%. The firm has 10,000 shares of common stock outstanding selling at a price per share of $48.00. Assume that PP is considering changing from its original capital structure to a new capital structure with 35% debt and 65% equity. This results in a weighted average cost of capital equal to 9.4% and a new value of operations of $510,638. Assume PP raises $178,723 in new debt and purchases T-bills to hold until it makes the stock repurchase. PP then sells the T-bills and uses the proceeds to repurchase stock. How many shares remain after the repurchase, and what is the stock price per share immediately after the repurchase?
Answer:
How many shares remain after the repurchase, and what is the stock price per share immediately after the repurchase?
6,500 stocks remaining at $64.33 each stockExplanation:
EBIT $80,000
zero growth rate
Cost of equity (Re) 10%
tax rate 40%
10,000 common stocks outstanding at $48
they want to change from 100% equity to 35% debt and 65% equity
WACC = 9.4%
new value of operations $510,638
PP's value of operations = {$80,000 x (1 - 40%)} / WACC = $510,638
the new stock price should = $510,638 / 10,000 stocks = $51.06
Stock price will be $51.06
approximately $178,723 / $51.06 = 3,500 stocks should be repurchased
9.4% = ($480,000/$658,723 x 10%) + ($178,723/$658,723 x cost of debt x (1 - 40%)
9.4% = 7.29% + ($178,723/$658,723 x cost of debt x (1 - 40%)
2.11% = 0.2713 x cost of debt x 0.6
2.11% = 0.1628 x cost of debt
cost of debt = 2.11%/0.1628 = 12.96%
new WACC = ($178,710/$357,433 x 10%) + ($178,723/$357,433 x 12.96% x 0.6) = 5% + 6.48% = 11.48%
PP's value of operations = {$80,000 x 0.6} / 11.48% = $418,118
the new stock price should = $418,118 / 6,500 stocks = $64.33

Part X requires machining on a milling machine (operations A and B are required).
Find the number of machines required to produce 3000 parts per week. Assume the company will be operating five days per week, 18 hours per day. The following infor- mation is known:
Operation Standard Time Efficiency Reliability Scrap
A 3 min 95% 95% 2%
B 5 min 95% 90% 5%
Note: The milling machine requires tool changes and preventive maintenance after every lot of 500 parts. These changes require 30 minutes.
Answer:atleast 5 machines
Explanation:
Quantity required (Q) = 3000
Maintainace due = 500 parts
3000 / 500 = 5 = 6 Maintainace
Repair time = 6 × 30 minutes = 300 minutes = 5 hours.
operation time = 5 × 18 × 60 = 5400 minutes
Total operation time = Total operation hours - repair time
5400 - 300 = 5100 hours
For A:
(Standard time × Q) / (reliability × time efficiency × scrap × total working hours)
(3 × 3000) / (. 95×.95×5100)
9000/4602.75 = 1.96
For B:
(Standard time × Q) / (reliability × time efficiency × scrap × total working hours)
(5 × 3000) / (.95×.9×5100)
15000/4360.5 = 3.44
(1.96 + 3.44) = 166.56
=5. 4

Determine whether each of the following topics would more likely be studied in microeconomics or microeconomics.1. The effect of a large government budget deficit on the economy's price levela. microeconomicsb. macroeconomics2. The effect of an increase in the money supply on the rate of inflationa. microeconomicsb. macroeconomics3. The effect of government regulation on a monopolist's production decisionsa. microeconomicsb. macroeconomics
Answer:
1. B
2. B
3. A
Explanation:
1. The effect of a large government budget deficit on the economy's price level: is Macroeconomics.
2. The effect of an increase in the money supply on the rate of inflation: is Macroeconomics.
3. The effect of government regulation on a monopolist's production decisions: is Microeconomics.
Generally, Economics can be classified into two (2) categories, namely;
1. Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Hence, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.
2. Microeconomics can be defined as the study of the effect of price and quantity levels through interactions between individual buyers and sellers in various markets.
Hence, it is focuses on analyzing or evaluating the decisions of consumers (buyers) and those of firms (sellers) such as methods of production, pricing; and the manner in which government policies affect those decisions.
rene’s Dairy is deciding whether or not to enter the market for ice cream, currently monopolized by Mattie’s Ice-cream. If it enters the market, Mattie’s can either accommodate him and share his 10million in profits equally with Irene or fight him and cause a 5million loss for each in a price war. What would the Nash equilibrium be in this sequential game?
Answer:
Enter, accommodate
Explanation:
Nash equilibrium is a concept of game theory that stated that the optimal outcome for an entity is that they have no incentive to deviate from their original strategy after considering their opponent's choice.
It is a logical and mathematical way by which an entity determines the best outcome for themselves.
In this scenario the best option is to Enter and accommodate.
For Irene if they enter and accommodate the most optimal outcome is that they will get $5 million in profits. If they fight they will lose $5 million. They will enter because they know Mattie will lose $5 million is they fight.
For Mattie if they fight Irene they will lose $5million which is worse that sharing their profit.
So the best option after considering beach other's strategy is to accommodate and share the profits
Based on the following data and using a 365-day year:
12/31/Year 1 accounts receivable $100,000
12/31/Year 2 accounts receivable 70,000
For the year ended 12/31/Year 1, sales 1,050,000
For the year ended 12/31/Year 2, sales 1,200,000
A. Compute the accounts receivable turnover.
B. Compute the number of days' sales in receivables for year.
C. The industry average turnover is 20 times during the year, and the number of days' sales in receivables averages 25. How does this situation compare to the industry average?
D. Is it slightly better or slightly worse than the average?
Answer:
A. 14 times
B. 21 days
C. For accounts receivable turnover, the computed 14 days is less than the industry average of 20. For the the number of days' sales in receivables, the computed 21 days is less than the industry average of 25.
D. It is slightly better than the average
Explanation:
Note that the relevant year this question is related is Year 2 which is the latest year. The questions are therefore answer as follows:
A. Compute the accounts receivable turnover.
Average accounts receivable = (12/31/Year 1 accounts receivable + 12/31/Year 2 accounts receivable) / 2 = $100,000 + $70,000 = $85,000
Accounts receivable turnover = Year 2 Sales / Average accounts receivable = $1,200,000 / $85,000 = 14.12, or approximately 14 times
B. Compute the number of days' sales in receivables for year.
Number of days' sales in receivables for year 2 = (Year 2 accounts receivable / Year 2 Sales) * 365 = ($70,000 / $1,200,000) * 365 = 21.29, or approximately 21 days
C. The industry average turnover is 20 times during the year, and the number of days' sales in receivables averages 25. How does this situation compare to the industry average?
The computed accounts receivable turnover of 14 times is less than the industry average turnover of 20 times.
Also, the computed number of days' sales in receivables for year 2 of 21 days is less than the industry average number of days' sales in receivables of 25 days.
D. Is it slightly better or slightly worse than the average?
For accounts receivable turnover, it is slightly better than average as the computed one indicates that the business can 14 times turn its accounts receivable into cash during the year as against 20 times industry average which is higher.
Also for the number of days' sales in receivables for year, it is slightly better than average as the computed one indicates that it takes the business just 21 days to collect cash from his customers on average as against the 25 days industry average which is higher.
Both therefore indicates that It is slightly better than the average.

Direct Materials Variances Silicone Engine Inc. produces wrist-worn tablet computers. The company uses Thin Film Crystal (TFC) LCD displays for its products. Each tablet uses one display. The company produced 580 tablets during December. However, due to LCD defects, the company actually used 600 LCD displays during December. Each display has a standard cost of $15.00. Six hundred LCD displays were purchased for December production at a cost of $8,550. Determine the price variance, quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance for December. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. Price variance $ Quantity variance $ Total direct materials cost variance $
Answer:
The price variance is -$450 favorable
The quantity variance is $300 unfavorable
The Total direct materials cost variance is -$150 favorable
Explanation:
According to given data we have the following:
standard price=$15
Actual price=$8,550/600=$14.25
standard quantity=580
Actual quantity=600
To calculate the price variance, quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance for December we would have to make the following calculations:
price variance=(Actual price-standard price)*Actual quantity
price variance=($14.25-$15)*600
price variance=-$450 favourable
quantity variance=(Actual quantity-standard quantity)*standard price
quantity variance=(600-580)*$15
quantity variance=$300 unfavorable
total direct materials cost variance=materials price variance+material quantity variance
total direct materials cost variance=-$450+$300
total direct materials cost variance=-$150

What were the company's cumulative earnings over these four quarters? What were its cumulative cash flows from operating activities? b. What fraction of the cash from operating activities was used for investment over the four quarters? c. What fraction of the cash from operating activities was used for financing activities over the four quarters?
Answer: The answers are given below
Explanation:
A diagram relating to the question was gotten and the answers are provided below.
a. Cumulative earnings over four quarters will be:
= 276625 + 229066 + 194168 + 218413 = $918,272 (in $000)
Cumulative cash flow from the operating activities will be:
= 227333 + 13837 + 717808 + 254475
= $1,185,779 (in $000)
b. Total cash flows from the investing activities will be:
= 196,746 + 35,305 + 251,178 + 96,973 = $580,202 (in $000)
The fraction used in the investment of cash flow from the operating activities will be:
= (580202 ÷ 1185779) × 100
= 48.93%
c. Total cash flows from the financing activities will be:
= 462948 + 13401 + 526169 + 96143
= $172,768 (in $000)
The fraction used in the financing of cash flow from the operating activities will be:
= (172768/1185779) × 100
= 14.57%
