Answer:
b. $150,000
Explanation:
The computation of the working capital is shown below:
= Total current assets - total current liabilities
= $370,000 - $220,000
= $150,000
We simply applied the above formula
And, the same is to be considered
Hence, the working capital is $150,000
Therefore the correct option is b. $150,000
All the other options are wrong.
Big Box Store has operated with a 30% average gross profit ratio for a number of years. It had $107,000 in sales during the second quarter of this year. If it began the quarter with $18,700 of inventory at cost and purchased $72,700 of inventory during the quarter, its estimated ending inventory by the gross profit method is:
Answer:
$16,500
Explanation:
The computation of the estimated ending inventory is given below:
As We know that
Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + purchase made - ending inventory
And, the
Sales - gross profit = Cost of goods sold
So,
$107,000 - $107,000 × 30% = Cost of goods sold
Therefore, the cost of goods sold is
= $107,000 - $32,100
= $74,900
And, finally the ending inventory is
$74,900 = $18,700 + $72,700 - ending inventory
$74,900 = $91,400 - ending inventory
So, the ending inventory is
= $91,400 - $74,900
= $16,500
If the liabilities of a company increased $110,000 during a period of time and equity in the company decreased $37,000 during the same period, what was the effect on the assets?
Answer:
Increase of $73,000
Explanation:
As we know that
The accounting equation is
Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity
So it can be said that
Change in Assets = Change in Liabilities + Change in Owner's Equity
Change in Assets = Increase of $110,000 + Decrease of $37,000
Change in Assets = Increase of $73,000
hence, the impact of the asset is $73,000 and the same is to be considered

During 20x1, Orca Corp. decided to change from the FIFO method of inventory valuation to the weighted-average method. Inventory balances under each method were as follows:________.
FIFO Weighted-average
January 1, 20x1 $71,000 $77,000
December 31, 20x1 $79,000 $83,000
Orca's income tax rate is 30%.
In its 2005 financial statements, what amount should Orca report as the cumulative effect of this accounting change?
a) $2,800
b) $4,000
c) $4,200
d) $6,000
Answer:
Orca Corp.
The cumulative effect of this accounting change in estimate is:
That the cost of goods sold will be reduced by:
b) $4,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
FIFO Weighted-average Difference
January 1, 20x1 $71,000 $77,000 $6,000
December 31, 20x1 $79,000 $83,000 $4,000
Orca's income tax rate is 30%.
Note that the difference in the cost of the beginning inventory does not have any effect in the current period's financials. It was an estimate that was done previously and Orca does not need to restate its financials for the previous year because of the change. The accounting change only affects the current period.
Comparing with unemployment rate with employment rate, which of the following is NOT correct? a. Unemployment rate takes the group of "out of labor force" into account. b. Compared with unemployment rate, employment rate is better because it concerns the hidden unemployment in the out of labor force group. c. Compared with employment rate, unemployment rate in a labor market usually has a larger variation. d. It has limitation because some policy shocks unrelated to unemployment or labor market situation such changes in fertility and school enrollment rates, will affect the number of the employment rate as well.
Answer:
b. Compared with unemployment rate, employment rate is better because it concerns the hidden unemployment in the out of labor force group.
Explanation:
Remember, the employment rate is used to determine the degree to which the labor force (people willing to work) in a particular economy are able to find work.
Hence, it does not concern itself or takes into account the hidden unemployment in the out of the labor force group, but only those people willing to work are considered.
On June 1, Royal Corp. began operating a service company with an initial cash investment by shareholders of $3,206,000. The company provided $8,200,000 of services in June and received full payment in July. Royal also incurred expenses of $2,645,000 in June that were paid in August. During June, Royal paid its shareholders cash dividends of $490,000. What was the company's income before income taxes for the two months ended July 31 under the following methods of accounting
Answer:
Cash Basis= $8,200,000
Accrual Basis= $5,555,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the company's income before income taxes for the two months ended July 31
Based on the information given we were told that the company provided the amount of $8,200,000 of services in the month of June and received full payment of the amount in the month of July which means that the CASH BASIS will be $8,200,000
Cash Basis= $8,200,000
Calculation for Accrual Basis
Using this formula
Accrual Basis= Cash received - Incurred expenses
Accrual Basis= $8,200,000-$2,645,000
Accrual Basis= $5,555,000
Therefore the company's income before income taxes for the two months ended July 31 under the Cash Basis and Accrual Basis methods of accounting will be :
Cash Basis= $8,200,000
Accrual Basis= $5,555,000
"Aldrich and Co. sold goods to Donovan on credit.The amount owed grew steadily, and finally Aldrichrefused to sell any more to Donovan unless Donovansigned a promissory note for the amount due.Donovan did not want to but signed the notebecause he had no money and needed more goods.When Aldrich brought an action to enforce the note,Donovan claimed that the note was not bindingbecause it had been obtained by economic duress.Was he correct? [Aldrich & Co. v. Donovan, 778 P.2d397 (Mont.)"
Answer and Explanation:
Economic duress happens when one party X in a contract makes demands from the other party Y which party Y has to fulfill or party X terminates the contract.
No there was no economic duress here since Aldrich had a right to demand that Donovan sign a promissory note in order to protect his claim in case of default from Donovan. Therefore Donovan signed not because he was under duress but because he needed financial assistance.
If a check correctly written and paid by the bank for $649 is incorrectly recorded on the company's books for $694, the appropriate treatment on the bank reconciliation would be to
Answer: Add $45 to the book balance
Explanation:
This is a case of bank reconciliation. Bank reconciliation occurs when the account of the bank and the company or Business are compared in order to check the differences which are then reconciled.
In this case, since the check written and paid by the bank is $649 while in the company's book, it's written as $694, then a book balance of $45 is added which is the difference between $694 and $649
Suppose that real GDP grew more in Country A than in Country B last year.
a. Country A must have a higher standard of living than country B.
b. Country A's worker productivity must have grown faster than country B's.
c. Both of the above are correct.
d. None of the above are correct.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
The standard of living is calculated as real GDP / population. Even though the real GDP of country A grew faster than country B, country A's population might be higher than country B's making its standard of living lower.
To make a conclusion that the growth of country A's worker productivity grew faster, it must be assumed that population grew at the same rate in both countries
Marr Co. had the following sales and accounts receivable balances, prior to any adjustments at year end: Credit sales $10,000,000 Accounts receivable 3,000,000 Allowance for uncollectible accounts (debit balance) 50,000 Marr uses 3% of accounts receivable to determine its allowance for uncollectible accounts at year end. By what amount should Marr adjust its allowance for uncollectible accounts at year end
Answer:
$140,000
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Ending allowance for uncollectible accounts is
= Accounts receivable × Given percentage
= $3,000,000 × 3%
= $90,000
Now the
Adjusted balance is
= Ending allowance for uncollectible accounts + debit balance of Allowance for uncollectible accounts
= $90,000 + $50,000
= $140,000

Lambda Computer Products competed for and won a contract to produce two prototype units of a new type of computer that is based on laser optics rather than on electronic binary bits. The first unit produced by Lambda took 5,000 hours to produce and required $250,000 worth of material, equipment usage, and supplies. The second unit took 4,250 hours and used $237,500 worth of materials, equipment usage, and supplies. Labor is $20 per hour. Use Exhibit 6.5. a. Lambda was asked to present a bid for 10 additional units as soon as the second unit was completed. Production would start immediately. What would this bid be
Answer:
$2,731,672.50
Explanation:
first unit produced by lambda took 5,000 hours to produce and required $250,000 worth of material, equipment usage, and supplies
the second unit took 4,250 hours and used $238,500 worth of materials, equipment usage, and supplies
learning rate = time needed to produce second unit / time needed to produce first unit = 4,250 hours / 5,000 hours = 85%
materials and equipment usage rate = $237,500 / $250,000 = 95%
using the attached table of cumulative values, we can determine the cumulative improvement factors needed to solve this question:
Lambda's accumulated cost for producing 10 more computers

Joe is considering 2 similar bonds, with the only difference that: (1) a tax-exempt municipal bond promises a 5.625% annual return, (2) a taxable corporate bond promises a 7.5% annual return. If Joe's tax rate is 25%, which bond should he buy?
a. Either one, both have the same after-tax yield
b. Municipal bond, as it has a higher after-tax yield
c. Corporate bond, as it has a higher after-tax yield
d. Not enough information is given to answer the question
Answer:
a. Either one, both have the same after-tax yield
Explanation:
we have to calculate the after tax return of the bonds:
after tax return of corporate bonds = bond yield x (1 - tax rate) = 7.5% x (1 - 25%) = 7.5% x 0.75 = 5.625%
since municipal bonds are not included as part of Joe's gross income, their after tax rate is equal to their yield = 5.625%
both bonds yield the same after tax return = 5.625%

Answer:
Interest= $90
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment= $3,000
i= 3%
Number of periods= 1
First, we need to calculate the future value, using the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 3,000*1.03= $3,090
Now, the interest earned:
Interest= 3,090 - 3,000
Interest= $90

The market rate of interest for similar notes was 8%. The present value of $400,000 discounted at 8% for three years was $317,520. On January 1, 2016, Straight Industries recorded the purchase with a debit to equipment for $317,520 and a credit to notes payable for $317,520. Assuming no adjusting entries have been made during the year, the interest expense accrued at December 31, 2016 is closest to:
Answer:
$25,402
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount of interest accrued at December 31, 2016
Using this formula
Interest expense accrued= 2016 Beginning Note payable liability*Interest rate
Let plug in the formula
Interest expense accrued =$317,520*8%
Interest expense accrued =$25,402
Therefore the interest expense accrued at December 31, 2016 is closest to $25,402
Bates Company plans to add a new item to its line of consumer product offerings. Two possible products are under consideration. Each unit of Product A costs $10 to produce and has a contribution margin of $5, while each unit of Product B costs $18 and has a contribution margin of $6. What is the differential revenue for this decision
Answer:
the Differential revenue is $9
Explanation:
The computation of the differential revenue is shown below:
Differential revenue is
= (Product B) - (Product A)
= (Cost + contribution margin) - (Cost + contribution margin)
= ($18 + $6) - ($10 + $5)
= $24 - $15
= $9
hence, the Differential revenue is $9
Therefore the same is to be considered

Acme-Jones Corporation uses a weighted-average perpetual inventory system. August 2, 40 units were purchased at $27 per unit. August 18, 24 units were purchased at $29 per unit. August 29, 42 units were sold. What was the amount of the cost of goods sold for this sale?
Answer:Cost of goods sold=$1,165.5
Explanation:
Using the weighted-average perpetual inventory system.
August 2 =40 units x $27per unit = $1080
August 18=24units x $29 per unit = $696
Weighted average cost per unit = (1080 + 696)/64 = $27.75per unit
Therefore, Cost of goods sold = $27.75 x 42 = $1,165.5

a. Return on assets = Net Income/Total Assets
= $ 97,800/$1,100,000 $ 79,200/$830,000
= 8.89% = 9.54%
b. Return on stockholders' equity = Net Income/Stockholders' equity
= $ 97,800/$400,000 $ 79,200/$330,000
= 24.45% = 24%
c. Earnings per share = Net Income/Outstanding common shares
= $ 97,800/100,000 $ 79,200/100,000
= $0.98 = $0.79
d. Price-earnings ratio = Market price/Earnings per share
= $2.98/$0.98 = $2.98/$0.79
= 3.04 times = 3.77 times
e. Dividend yield = Dividend per share/price per share
= $0.28/$2.98 = $0.19/$2.98
= 9.40% = 6.38%
f. Dividend payout ratio = Total dividends/Net Income
= $27,800/$97,800 = $19,200/$79,200
= 28.43% = 24.24%

Creswell Corporation's fixed monthly expenses are $30,000 and its contribution margin ratio is 63%. Assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change, what is the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month when sales are $92,000?
a. $27,960.b. $62,000.c. $57,960.d. $4,040.
Answer:
Net income= $27,960
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $30,000
contribution margin ratio= 0.63
Sales= $92,000
First, we need to calculate the total contribution margin:
Total contribution margin= 92,000*0.63= 57,960
Now, the net income:
Net income= 57,960 - 30,000
Net income= $27,960
At the end of January of the current year, the records of Donner Company showed the following for a particular item that sold at $15.00 per unit:
Transactions Units Amount
Inventory, January 1 500 $2,500

Purchase, January 26 100 900
Sale (380)
Sale (210)
Between FIFO or LIFO, which method would produce the more favorable cash flow?
Answer:
FIFO method decreases COGS and increases net income, but both methods will result in a similar cash flow ($8,850).
Explanation:
cost of goods sold using FIFO:
380 x $5 = $1,900
(120 x $5) + (90 x $7) = $1,230
total = $3,130
profit = (590 x $15) - $3,130 = $5,720
cost of goods sold using LIFO:
(100 x $9) + (280 x $7) = $2,860
210 x $7 = $1,470
total = $4,330
profit = (590 x $15) - $4,330 = $4,520
assuming that the company does not incur any operating costs:
Cash flow from operating activities (using FIFO):
Net income $5,270
adjustments to net income:
Decrease in inventory $3,130
Net cash flow $8,850
Cash flow from operating activities (using LIFO):
Net income $4,520
adjustments to net income:
Decrease in inventory $4,330
Net cash flow $8,850
A firm has fixed operating costs of $10,000, the sale price per unit of its product is $25, and its variable cost per unit is $15. The firm's operating breakeven point in units is ________ and its breakeven point in dollars is ________.
A) 1,000; $6,250.
B) 400; $10,000.
C) 400; $25,000.
D) 1,000; $25,000.
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $10,000
Selling price= $25
Unitary variable cost= $15
To calculate the break-even point in units and dollars, we need to use the following formulas:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 10,000 / (25 - 15)
Break-even point in units= 1,000
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 10,000 / (10/25)
Break-even point (dollars)= $25,000
Answer:
D) 1,000; $25,000.
Explanation:
Let us assume the company produces x units. The total cost is:
Total cost = fixed cost + variable cost × number of items = $10000 + 15 × x = 10000 + 15x
The revenue = number of unit × price per unit = x × $25 = 25x
At breakeven, the revenue and cost are equal, therefore:
25x = 10000 + 15x
25x - 15x = 10000
10x = 10000
x = 10000/10
x = 1000 units
The price at breakeven point = 25x = 25(1000) = $25000
Charter Company, which uses the perpetual inventory method, purchases different letters for resale. Charter had a beginning inventory comprised of seven units at $4 per unit. The company purchased five units at $6 per unit in February, sold seven units in October, and purchased two units at $7 per unit in December. If Charter Company uses the LIFO method, what is the cost of its ending inventory
Answer:
Ending inventory cost= $34
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= 7 units for $4 per unit.
Purchased= 5 units for $6
Sold= 7 units
Purchased= 2 units for $7 each
Under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, the cost of ending inventory is calculated using the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory. The perpetual inventory system recognizes sales after it happens.
Ending inventory:
Beginning inventory= 7*4= 28
Purchased= 5*6= 30
Sold= (5*6) + (2*4)= (38)
Purchased= 2*7= 14
Ending inventory cost= $34
