This case has no legal foundation. c. This case is considered a civil law case. d. The case cannot be resolved by monetary compensation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: This case is considered a civil law case.

Explanation:

To begin with, the fact that the case is considered to be a civil law case is due to the fact that the relationship between the both parties is comercial and therefore that they are intented to operate inside the civil area of the law according to what they do. Moreover, the contract will be favourable in court because of the statements that were written on it, and thats why the most probably is that Jonathan will win the case.

At January 1, 2008, Ceatric, Inc. has beginning inventory of 2,000 surfboards. Ceatric estimates it will sell 5,000 units during the first quarter of 2008 with a 12% increase in sales each quarter. Ceatric’s policy is to maintain an ending inventory equal to 25% of the next quarter’s sales. Each surfboard costs $100 and is sold for $150. How much is budgeted sales revenue for the third quarter of 2008?

Answers

Answer:

Sales= $940,800

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

At January 1, 2008, Ceatric, Inc. has beginning inventory of 2,000 surfboards. Ceatric estimates it will sell 5,000 units during the first quarter of 2008 with a 12% increase in sales each quarter. Each surfboard costs $100 and is sold for $150.

First, we need to calculate the number of units sold in the third quarter:

1stQ= 5,000

2ndQ= 5,000*1.12= 5,600

3rdQ= 5,600*1.12= 6,272

Now, the sales revenue:

Sales= 6,272*150= $940,800

Variable costs= 6,272*100= (627,200)

Gross profit= $313,600

d. contractionary fiscal or monetary policy will reduce inflation with little effect on real GDP.

Answers

Answer:

b. expansionary fiscal or monetary policy will add significantly to real GDP will little effect on inflation.

Explanation:

The Keynesian aggregate supply curve is mostly horizontal (flat) because a decline in aggregate demand will always result in a decline in aggregate production (supply). In other words, during a recession, companies are willing to supply (produce and sell) all the products and services that their consumers demand at a given price. Even if the price does not change, if aggregate demand decreases, aggregate supply will also decrease.  

That is why Keynesian economists argue that governments must intervene during economic recessions.

Answers

The answer is Promissory Note

Explanation:

The most common document used to register a loan and guarantee this is paid back is a Promissory Note. In this, the parties involved register the amount of money that was borrowed and the borrower promises through the document to pay this amount of money before a fixed specific date. Also, promissory notes register the rate of interest that will be paid by the borrower. Besides this, a promissory note is a legal document that registers the loan and can be used as a legal instrument in case the money is not paid back.

leutian Company uses the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The Fabrication Department uses machine hours as an allocation base, and the Assembly Department uses direct labor hours. The Assembly Department's factory overhead rate is

Answers

Answer:

$5.28 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

The computation of the assembly department factory overhead rate is shown below:

The Assembly Department's factory overhead rate = Estimated total factory overhead ÷ Total Direct Labor hours

where,

Estimated total factory overhead for Assembly Department = $71,800.

And,

Total Direct Labor hours  is

= [910 units × 6 hours per unit] + [2,710 × 3 hours per unit]

= 5,460 hours + 8,130 hours  

= 13,590 direct labor hour

So, the assembly department factory overhead rate is

= $71,800 ÷ 13,590 direct labor hour

= $5.28 per direct labor hour

1. A country’s national saving is 20% of its national income and it needs $4 worth of capital for producing $1 worth of goods and services on the average. The economic planners want the country to grow at the rate of 10% per annum and expect that there will be no shortage of labor in the growth process. Is this growth rate consistent with what you have learned from the Harrod Domar Model? If not, how can the planners make a plan to achieve a 10% growth rate?

Answers

Answer: No. The growth rate inconsistent with what was learned from the Harrod Domar Model.

Explanation:

The Harrod–Domar model is a model of economic growth that is used to explain the growth rate of an economy in terms of the level of capital and saving. The Harrod-Domar models assumes that a full-employment level of income exist and that there is no government interference in the economy.

Based on the question, the growth rate will be: = 20% ÷ 4= 5%.

To achieve a 10 % growth rate in the economy, the savings must either rise to 40% or capital output ratio drop to 2. For example, when growth rate rises to 40%, this will be= 40% ÷ 4 = 10%.

The Fields Company has two manufacturing departments, forming and painting. The company uses the weighted-average method of process costing. At the beginning of the month, the forming department has 26,000 units in inventory, 70% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs. The beginning inventory cost of $62,100 consisted of $46,000 of direct material costs and $16,100 of conversion cost.
During the month, the forming department started 320,000 units. At the end of the month, the forming department had 32,000 units in ending inventory, 90% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion. Units completed in the forming department are transferred to the painting department.

1. Calculate the equivalent units of production for the forming department. Direct Materials Conversion
2. Calculate the costs per equivalent unit of production for the forming department. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) EUP EUP Direct Materials Conversion

Answers

Answer:

1.  Direct Materials = 342,800, Conversion = 326,800

2. Direct Materials = $4.20,  Conversion = $2.50,  Total = $6.70

Explanation:

Calculation of equivalent units of production for the forming department.

First Calculate the Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department.

Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 26,000 + 320,000 - 32,000 = 314,000

Direct Materials

Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 314,000

Units in Closing Work In Process (32,000 × 90%)                      =   28,800

Total Equivalent Units                                                                   = 342,800

Conversion

Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 314,000

Units in Closing Work In Process (32,000 × 40%)                      =    12,800

Total Equivalent Units                                                                   = 326,800

Calculation of the costs per equivalent unit of production for the forming department.

First calculate the costs incurred during the period for both Direct Materials and Conversion.

Direct Materials

Costs in Opening Work In Process  =     $46,000

Costs Added during the Period       =  $1,393,760

Total Costs                                         = $1,439,760

Conversion

Costs in Opening Work In Process  =      $16,100

Costs Added during the Period       =   $800,900

Total Costs                                         =   $817,000

Then calculate the cost per equivalent unit of production for both Direct Materials and Conversion.

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Costs / Total Equivalent Units

Direct Materials ($1,439,760 / 342,800) =  $4.20

Conversion ($817,000 / 326,800)           =  $2.50

Total                                                          =   $6.70

Explanation:

if successful price = $30 million

if unsuccessful price = $0

investment required = $2 million

in exchange of 50% of the firm

if you borrow $1 million, you will have to give up 33.33% of the company in exchange for the other $1 million needed

Rich, Inc. acquired 30% of Doane Corporation's voting stock on January 1, 2018 for $1,000,000. During 2018, Doane earned $400,000 and paid dividends of $250,000. Rich's 30% interest in Doane gives Rich the ability to exercise significant influence over Doane's operating and financial policies. On January 1, 2019, Rich sold half of its stock in Doane for $660,000 cash.


a. What accounting should be made by Rich, Inc. for dividends received from Doane subsequent to the date of investment?


b. What amount should Rich include in its 2018 income statement as a result of the investment?


c. What should be the carrying amount of this investment reported on Rich's December 31, 2018 balance sheet?


d. What should be the gain on sale of this investment in Rich's 2019 income statement?

Answers

Answer: a) Reduce by $75,000

b) $120,000

c) $1,045,000

d) $137,500

Explanation:

a) Dividends reduce the investment amount by an investor in the business.

Rich owns 30% in stock so they are entitled to 30% in Dividends.

= 30% * 250,000

= $75,000

Rich's investment account should reduce by $75,000.

b) Doane Corporation earned $400,000 in earnings for the year 2018. Rich should include their share of this earnings in their income statement. Income also increases the investment account. As he owns 30%, they should include 30% of this in their statement.

= 30% * 400,000

= $120,000

c) The Carrying amount of an investment refers to what the investment is worth in the current period which is the end of 2018. Remember that dividends reduce the amount of the investment and income increases the amount.

The Carrying amount therefore is,

= Cost of Investment + Income attributed to Investment - Dividends

= 1,000,000 + 120,000 - 75,000

= $1,045,000

d) As the earnings and the cash dividends for the year 2019 re not available, assume that it is the same as 2018.

This will mean that the carrying value on July 1 will still be $1,045,000.

Rich sold half of their stake so half of the carrying value is

= 1,045,000/2

=$522,500

They sold it for $660,000 but it was worth $522,500. The Gain is therefore,

= 660,000 - 522,500

= $137,500

d. units sold

Answers

Answer:

Option B. Units completed and transferred to finished goods

&

Option C. Units in ending work in process inventory

Explanation:

The reason is that the Equivalent units of Production that include number of units that would have been completed if all the efforts required were applied to the product completion which are the products started and finished during the period. The definition clearly states that the units considered would be the one that are shifted to finished goods from work in progress state in the current year or the one which is at work in progress state.

In the nutshell, the only units that would be considered in the assignment of the cost in the Step 4 will be either Work in Progress (Option C) or the Finished Goods that is shifted to Work in Progress (Option B).

Your firm needs a machine which costs $240,000, and requires $39,000 in maintenance for each year of its 7 year life. After 3 years, this machine will be replaced. The machine falls into the MACRS 7-year class life category. Assume a tax rate of 40% and a discount rate of 12%. If this machine can be sold for $24,000 at the end of year 7, what is the after tax salvage value

Answers

Answer:

The after tax salvage value would be of $18,681.6

Explanation:

In order to calculate the after tax salvage value we would have use and calculate the following formula:

After tax salvage value = selling price*(1-tax rate)+book value*tax rate

Book value = 8 year depreciation amount of 7 year MACR*purchase price

After tax salvage value = $24,000*(1-0.4)+$240,000*4.46/100*0.4

After tax salvage value =  $18,681.6

The after tax salvage value would be of $18,681.6

In terms of public offerings of bonds, what is an indenture? A) a list of the duties of a trust company representing the bondholders' interests B) a memorandum that must be produced to describe the details of a bond offering C) a formal contract that specifies a firm's obligations to the bondholders D) a schedule of the fees charged by an underwriting company

Answers

Answer:

C) a formal contract that specifies a firm's obligations to the bondholders.

Explanation:

In terms of public offerings of bonds, an indenture is a formal contract that specifies a firm's obligations to the bondholders. It is typically a legal and binding contract between a firm (bond issuer) and its bondholders, which provides detailed information on terms and clauses.

The indenture specifies the essential features of a bond, these includes callabilty of bonds, interest payments time, maturity date of the bond, interest calculation method etc.

Hence, in case there's a conflict between the bond issuer and the bondholders; the indenture would be the reference document to be used for conflict resolution.

Manley Co. manufactures office furniture. During the most productive month of the year, 5,000 desks were manufactured at a total cost of $87,000. In its slowest month, the company made 2,000 desks at a cost of $49,500. Using the high-low method of cost estimation, total fixed costs are:

Answers

Answer:

$24,500

Explanation:

For computing the total fixed cost first we have to determine the total fixed cost which is shown below:

Variable cost per desk = (Total high cost - total low cost) ÷ (High number of desk manufactured - low number of desk manufactured)

= ($87,000 - $49,500) ÷ (5,000 desks - 2,000 desks)

= $37,500 ÷ 3,000 desk

= $12.5

Now the fixed cost equal to

= Total high cost - (High number of desk  × Variable cost per hour)

= $87,000 - (5,000 desks × $12.5)

= $87,000 - $62,500

= $24,500

A new factory manager was hired for a company that was experiencing slow production rates and lower production volumes than demanded by management. Upon​investigation, the manager found that the workers were poorly motivated and not closely supervised. Midway through the​ quarter, an incentive program was​ initiated, and cash bonuses were given when workers hit their production targets. Within a short​ time, production output​ increased, but the bonuses had to be charged to the direct labor​ budget, and the manager was worried about the impact of these costs on operating income. This could produce​ a(n) ________.
A. unfavorable direct labor efficiency variance
B. unfavorable direct materials cost variance
C. unfavorable direct labor cost variance
D. unfavorable direct materials efficiency variance

Answers

Answer:

C. unfavorable direct labor cost variance

Explanation:

The payment of cash bonuses would result in an unfavorable direct labor cost variance

. The Direct labor cost variance is unfavorable if the actual cost per hour is higher than the standard cost which in this question is as a result of bonuses charged to the direct labor budget. In other word, the factory paid more per hour of labor than what it has estimated

c) $108,370.
d) $134,880.
e) $116,090.

Answers

Answer:

Total= $113,190

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Boone Co.'s sales, based on experience, are 20% cash and 80% credit.

Credit sales are typically collected as follows:

40% in the month of sale

50% in the month after the sale

10% in the second month.

Sales:

On account December= 64,500 - 21,000= 43,500

Cash January= 107,000

Cash February= 127,000

We need to calculate the cash collected in February:

Cash collection:

From December= 43,500*0.1= 4,350

From January= (107,000*0.8)*0.5= 42,800

Cash From February= (127,000*0.2)= 25,400

On account February= (127,000*0.8)*0.4= 40,640

Total= $113,190

Perine Company has 5,460 pounds of raw materials in its December 31, 2019, ending inventory. Required production for January and February of 2020 are 4,200 and 6,000 units, respectively. 5 pounds of raw materials are needed for each unit, and the estimated cost per pound is $6. Management desires an ending inventory equal to 26% of next month’s materials requirements.


Prepare the direct materials budget for January.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning inventory= 5,460 pounds of raw materials

Production:

January= 4,200 units

February= 6,000 units

5 pounds of raw materials are needed for each unit, and the estimated cost per pound is $6.

Management desires an ending inventory equal to 26% of next month’s materials requirements.

Direct material budget= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Direct material budget (in pounds):

Production= 4,200*5= 21,000

Desired ending inventory= (6,000*5)*0.26= 7,800

Beginning inventory= (5,460)

Total= 23,340

Total cost= 23,340*6= $140,040

The first  interest paid on the bonds on 30 June is $144,000 ($3,600,000*8%*6/12) which is debited to interest expense account and credited to cash account as outflow of cash from the company.

The cash received from selling the remaining bonds is par value of $400,000 which is debited to cash account and credited to bonds payable account.

Cowboy, Inc., an American corporation that produces cowboy hats contract with a manufacturing plant in France, Beret, Inc. The contract provides that Beret, Inc. will produce the cowboy hats in France to be distributed back in the United States by Cowboy, Inc. The contract does not provide which country’s law will apply if a dispute arises between Cowboy and Beret. Eventually, Cowboy discovers that Beret is not producing the hats under the specifications agreed upon in the contract. Which will American or French law be used in settling the dispute? Why?

Answers

Answer: Neither. They will use International Law.

Explanation:

When companies from different countries get  into a contract, it is quite desirable that they stipulate which country's laws that they will abide by should the need arise.

However, if this is not done, there is still a method of enforcing. When not specifically listed, contract between companies from different countries falls under a branch of Private International law which is International Contract Law which is synonymous with International Sales law.

This law falls under the jurisdiction of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) which came into effect in January 1988.

Both France and the United States of America have ratified the law and so Cowboy Hats is free to take legal action within this framework if they so please.

Compute the selling price per composite unit. 2. Compute the variable costs per composite unit. 3. Compute the break-even point in composite units. 4. Compute the number of units of each product that would be sold at the break-even point.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The selling prices are $1,310 per desk unit and $560 per chair. The variable costs are $810 per desk unit and $310 per chair. Fixed costs are $180,000.

The company sells 3 deks per 2 chairs.

Sales proportion:

Desks= 3/5= 0.6

Chairs= 2/5= 0.4

1) Selling price per composite unit= sales proportion*selling price

Selling price per composite unit= 0.6*1,310 + 0.4*560

Selling price per composite unit=  $1,010

2) Variable cost per composite unit= sales proportion*unitary variable cost

Variable cost per composite unit= 0.6*810 + 0.4*310

Variable cost per composite unit= 610

3) Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin

Break-even point (units)= 180,000/ (1,010 - 610)

Break-even point (units)= 450 units

4) Number of units for each product:

Desks= 0.6*450= 270

Chairs= 0.4*450= 180

Which of the following is not correct?a. If the inflation rate exceeds the nominal interest rate, then the purchasing power of an interest-earning deposit falls over time.b. If there is deflation, then the purchasing power of an interest-earning deposit rises by more than the nominal interest rate over time.c. The higher the rate of inflation, the smaller the increase in the purchasing power of an interest-earning deposit.d. The purchasing power of an interest-earning deposit can increase or decrease over time, but it cannot stay the same.

Answers

Answer:

The options which is NOT correct is C.

Purchasing power does not increase with inrease in the rate of inflation. There is an inverse relationship between inflation and purchasing power of money.

Explanation:

Inflation refers to the overall increase in prices of goods and services and the erosion of the power of the currency to purchase those goods and services. In otherwords, when inflation happens, one requires more dollar bills to purchase same unit of goods or services.

Deflation is the opposite of inflation. It refers to the decrease in the prices of goods and services and is usually accompained by an increase in the purchasing power of the currency.

Nominal interest rate simply put is the interest payable on a loan without considering processing fees, compounding interest payable and the erosion of the value of such money.
