Graber Company had $130,000 in sales on account last year. The beginning accounts receivable balance was $18,000 and the ending accounts receivable balance was $12,000. The company's average collection period was closest to: Select one: a. 33.69 days b. 42.12 days c. 84.23 days d. 50.54 days

Answers

Answer:

b. 42.12 days

Explanation:

Calculation for Graber company's average collection period will be:

Using this formula

Average collection period =Sales/[(Beginning accounts receivable +Ending accounts receivable)/2]

Let plug in the formula

130,000/[(18,000 + 12,000)/2]

=130,000/(30,000/2)

130,000/15,000

= 8.66days

Hence,

365/8.666666

=42.12 days

Therefore Graber company's average collection period will be 42.12 days

Ataxia Fitness center is considering an investment in some additional weight training equipment. The equipment has an estimated useful life of 10 years with no salvage value at the end of 10 years. Ataxia's internal rate of return is 14%. It's discount rate is also 14%. The payback period on this equipment is closest to:___________.
a. 2.70 years
b. 1.90 years
c. 5.22 years
d. 3.70 years

Answers

Answer:

6.71 years

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

Ataxia Fitness center has an equipment with a useful life estimated to be = 10 years

No Savage value at the end  of = 10 years

Internal rate of return of equipment = 8%

rate of discount = 8%

Now,

From the  Exhibit 13B-1 and Exhibit 13B-2,

Let the initial outlay be $50000

The present value of inflows at irr be =present value of outflows.

let value of  present annuity=Annuity[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate

Thus,

Be entering the values we get

Annuity[1-(1.08)^-10]/0.08 =50000

5000 =Annuity[1-(1.08)^-10]/0.08

50000=Annuity*6.710081399

Annuity=50000/6.710081399 = =$7451.474435

So, the period of payback =initial outlay/annual cash flows

=(50000/7451.474435)

=6.71 years

Therefore the pay back period on this equipment is = 6.71 years

What amount of interest expense related to the bonds will LHD report in its income statement for the year ending December 31, 2021

Answers

Answer:

$7,568.67

Explanation:

The computation of interest expenses is shown below:-

Date                Cash payment   Effective      Increase         Balance

                                                   interest       in balance

11/1/2021                                                                                $567,653

30/4/2022         $22,050      $22,706            $656           $568,309

                                                                                        ($656 + $567,653)

30/10/2022        $22,050      $22,732             $682         $568,991

30/4/2023          $22,050      $22,760             $710          $569,701

Interest expenses related to the bonds = $22,706 × 2 ÷ 6

= $7,568.67

Working Note :-

Cash Payment = Face amount × Issued bonds percentage × 6 months ÷ 12 months

= $630,000 × 7% × 6 ÷ 12

= $22,050

Effective interest for 30/4/2022 = Sold bonds × Market rate × 6 months ÷ 12 months

= $567,653 × 8% × 6 ÷ 12

= $22,706

Effective interest for 30/10/2022

= $568,309 × 8% × 6 ÷ 12

= $22,732

Effective interest for 30/4/2023

= $568,991 × 8% × 6 ÷ 12

= $22,760

Compute the overhead variances for the​ month: variable overhead cost​ variance, variable overhead efficiency​ variance, fixed overhead cost​ variance, and fixed overhead volume variance. 2. Explain why the variances are favorable or unfavorable.

Answers

Answer:

A variance is favorable when the actual costs or actual quantity were lower than estimated.

Explanation:

We weren't provided with enough information to calculate each variance. I will provide with the formulas.

Variable manufacturing overhead rate (cost) variance= (standard rate - actual rate)* actual quantity

Variable overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*Standard rate

Fixed overhead spending variance= (actual fixed overhead costs - allocated fixed overhead)

Manufacturing overhead volume variance= (Estimated manufacturing overhead rate*budgeted allocation base) - (Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base)

A variance is favorable when the actual costs or actual quantity were lower than estimated.

1. Modernative Comp. has a debt–equity ratio of 0.65, its return on assets is 8.2 percent, and total equity is $515,000. What is Modernative’s equity multiplier? Return on equity? Net income?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Equity  multiplier is one of the financial leverage ratios, which measures the amount of a company's asset that are financed by the shareholder by comparing total assets with total shareholder's equity

[tex]\text {Equity multiplier}=\frac{\text {Total Assets}}{\text {Total Equity}}[/tex]

[tex]\text {Return on owner's equity}=\frac{\text {Net income}}{\text {Total equity}}[/tex]

Determine the amount of equity multiplier

Equity multiplier = 1 + Debt to equity ratio

= 1 + 0.65

= 1.65

Hence, the amount of equity multiplier is 1.65

Determine the amount of return on equity

Return on equity = Return on assets * Equity multiplier

= 0.082 * 1.65

= 13.53%

Hence, the Return on equity is 13.53%

Determine  the amount of Net income

Net income = Return on equity * Total equity

= 13.53% *  $515,000

= $69,679.50

Hence, the amount of net income is $69,679.50

An approach to managing inventories and production operations such that units of materials and products are obtained and provided only as they are needed is called: Multiple Choice Continuous improvement. Customer orientation. Just-in-time manufacturing. Theory of constraints. Total quality management.

Answers

Answer:

Just-in-time manufacturing.

Explanation:

A Just in Time (JIT)  is a  manufacturing  control system in which no materials are purchased and no products are manufactured until they are needed.

A primary goal of the JIT production system is to eliminate inventories at every stage of production from raw materials to finished goods.

Raw materials are purchased only when need at some stage of production. Finished Goods are manufactured only as needed to fill customers orders.

Tremendous cost savings have been realized by many companies that have adopted the JIT approach.

Opening up the domestic markets results in benefits for several nations because they might not have the resources to start profitable operations in these sectors.

g On July 1, Alton Co. issued an $60,500, 10%, 120-day note payable to Seller Co. Assume that the fiscal year of Alton Co. ends July 31. Using a 360-day year in your calculations, what is the amount of interest expense recognized by Alton in the current fiscal year? When required, round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer:

The interest expense is $521  

Explanation:

The amount of interest expense for the fiscal year is the interest expense of 31 days which ,in other words the interest incurred only in the month of July ,calculated thus:

interest expense=days in the month/360days*interest rate*loan amount

interest expense=31/360*10%*$60,500=$ 521  

The interest expense for the current fiscal year rounded to the nearest dollar amount is $ 521  

Walther owns a home in flood-prone Paradise Basin. If there is no flood the home and land together will be worth $2100. If there is a flood, Walther's home will be destroyed but the land will still be worth $800. There is 1/10 of chance that Walther's house will be destroyed by the flood. Walther can buy flood insurance for $0.2 per dollar of coverage. Let CF and CNF be the value of respective values of his land in the case of a flood or no flood. Suppose the equation CNF = a - CF/b represents the possible values of CNF and CF that Walther can achieve by buying some amount of insurance. What is the value a +b?

Answers

Answer:

a + b = 1,900 - 4 = 1,896

Explanation:

i = amount insured in $

CNF = $2,100 - $0.20i

CF = $800 - $0.20i + i = $800 + $0.80i

CNF = a - CF/b

$2,100 - $0.20i = a - ($800 + $0.80i)/b

$2,100 - $0.20i = a - $800/b - $0.80i/b

now we equate:

-0.2i = 0.8i/b

b = 0.8/-0.2 = -4

2,100 = a - 800/b

2,100 = a - 800/-4

2,100 = a + 200

a = 1,900

a + b = 1,900 - 4 = 1,896

We find the plantwide overhead rate by dividing the total overhead with the total machine hours.

1. Plantwide Overhead Rate= Total Factory Overhead/ Total Machine Hours

Plantwide Overhead Rate= $981,200+ $472,350+$227,710/7640

                                       = 1681260/7640= $ 220.06 per machine hour

We multiply the machine hours of each model to get the overhead .

2.  Cost of Model 145

Materials and Labor  = $220 *1500= $330,000

Overhead = $220.06 *2290= $503,937.4

Total Cost = $83,3937.4

Total Cost per Unit= $83,3937.4/1500= $ 555.96 per unit

Cost Of Model 212

Materials and Labor  = $150 *3000= $ 450,000

Overhead = $220.06 *6350= $ 1400,810

Total Cost = $ 1850810

Total cost per unit = $ 1850810/ 3000= $ 616.94 per unit

We find the profit or loss by subtracting the mfg cost from the market value.

Consider the following scenario:Suppose that Sharon has just finished smoking a cigarette and is thinking about throwing the cigarette butt onto her neighbor Paolo's driveway. Although no police officers are around, she instead decides to carry it to a trash can because she doesn't want to embarrass herself by letting people see her littering.Which of the following types of private solutions to the externality of littering has occurred in this case?(A) Integration of different types of businesses through merger or acquisition(B) Contracts(C) Charities(D) Moral codes and social sanctions

Answers

Answer:

Moral codes and social sanctions

Explanation:

Externality is when the actions of a producer or consumer have an effect on third parties not involved in production or consumption.

Externality can be positive or negative.

Postive externality is when the benefits of economic activities to third parties exceeds the costs.

Negative externality is when the costs of economic activities to third parties exceeds the benefits.

Smoking and littering the environment with cigeratte butts is an example of an activity that generates negative externality.

Sharon's morals and sense of judgement cautioned her against littering with her cigarette butts because she knows such activity is frowned against by the society. So, in this case she is guided by her moral codes.

This is one of the solutions to externality.

Other solutions include:

Taxation

Integration of different types of businesses through merger or acquisition

Contracts

Charities

A manager must decide how many machines of a certain type to purchase. Each machine can process 100 customers per day. One machine will result in a fixed cost of $2,100 per day, while two machines will result in a fixed cost of $3,900 per day. Variable costs will be $17 per customer, and revenue will be $45 per customer.
a. Determine the break-even point for each range. (Round your answers to the next whole number.) One machine Two machines
b. If estimated demand is 90 to 120 customers per day, how many machines should be purchased?

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each machine can process 100 customers per day. One machine will result in a fixed cost of $2,100 per day, while two machines will result in a fixed cost of $3,900 per day. Variable costs will be $17 per customer, and revenue will be $45 per customer.

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

1 machine:

Break-even point in units= 2,100/ (45 - 17)

Break-even point in units= 75 costumers

2 machines:

Break-even point in units= 3,900/ 28

Break-even point in units= 139 costumers

If the demand is from 90 to 120 costumers per day, the company should buy 1 machine. With this level of demand, the company will not cover the costs of two machines.

Dr accounts payable   $1,650

Cr merchandise inventory                 $33

Cr cash                                                $1,617

Explanation:

After having returned goods worth $250 , the balance of goods in good condition not returned is $1,650 ($1,900-$250).

Paying the balance due on July 12 implies that payment was made during the discount period, hence payment would be net of discount.

Discount=$1,650*2%=$33.

The entries to record the payment would a debit of $1,650 in accounts payable while cash is credit with  $1,617 while the $33 discount is credited to merchandise inventory

Segregation of duties

Lack of computerized system

Explanation:

One obvious internal control weakness in the scenario given is segregation of duties. This is defined as the breaking down of a critical line of task into different stages with different individuals handling different stages of the task.

The aim is to prevent error and fraud as the action performed by an individual is subjected to review by another person and as such makes it impossible for an individual to cover up a fraudulent act except there is collision with others .

A computerized system which is the use of accounting software can also be used to integrate the function to increase the accuracy and speed of completion

COGS= $250,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning Finished Goods Inventory $72,000

Ending Finished Goods Inventory $68,000

Cost of Goods Manufactured for the period $246,000

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

COGS= 72,000 + 246,000 - 68,000

COGS= $250,000

(1.08)^8 =(1.07)^4 ×(1.0625)^2(1 + t+5f2)^2

(1+t+5f2)^2=(1.08)^8 /(1.07)^4 ×(1.0625)^2

=1.8509/1.3107×1.1289

=(1.8509/1.4796)^1/2

=(1.2509^1/2)-1

t+5f2=1.1184-1

A small company that builds wooden fences can currently construct five fences per month for a total revenue of $5,000 and a total cost of $750. One month, the firm owner decides to invest in more equipment. This extra equipment allows the company to build a sixth fence per month, but raises total cost to $825. Assuming the firm charges the same price for the sixth fence as it did for each of the other five, what is the change in total profit that results from increasing output?

Answers

Answer:

$925

Explanation:

Initial number of fences = 5

Initial total revenue = $5,000

Initial total cost = $750

Initial total profit = Initial total revenue - Initial total cost = $5,000 - $750 = $4,250

Since  the firm charges the same price for the sixth fence as it did for each of the other five, we have:

Price per unit = Initial total revenue / Initial total cost = $5,000 / 5 = $1,000

New number of fences = 6

New total revenue = Price per unit * New number of fences = $1,000 * 6= $6,000

New total profit = $6,000 - $825 = $5,175

Change in total profit = New total profit - Initial total profit = $5,175 - $4,250 = $925.

Therefore, the change in total profit that results from increasing output is $925.
