Answer:
$18,050
Explanation:
The computation of the common fixed cost of two order types for the northern branch is shown below:
= Company fixed cost traceable to the northern branch - traceable fixed cost for the local - traceable fixed cost for the non local
= $175,000 - $68,250 - $88,700
= $18,050
For computing it we simply deducted the traceable fixed cost from the company fixed cost so that the common fixed cost for the two orders types could come
The common fixed cost is the cost which supports more than the one division in the same business
Consider an economy that produces only two goods: fresh apricots and dried apricots. In this economy, the technology of producing dried apricots is to place fresh apricots on special racks and allow them to dry in the sun. Fannie's Farms is the only company that grows fresh apricots, while Darryl's Dried Victuals is the only producer of dried apricots. Fannie's sells some of its apricots directly to consumers for consumption. The relevant revenue and cost information for each of the two firms in the economy is given below: Darryl's Dried Victuals Revenue from selling dried apricots: Cost of buying fresh apricots from Fannie's: Interest on funds borrowed to buy drying racks: Wages paid to employees Taxes $2,750,000 1,800,000 200,000 550,000 90,000 Fannie's Farms Revenue from selling fresh apricots: Rent on land (including apricot trees) Wages to employees Taxes $2,350,000 400,000 1,100,000 180,000 Darryl's profit from selling dried apricots is:_________.A) $5,390,000 B) $110,000 C) None of these are correct D) $150,000 E) $670,000
Answer:
$110,000
Explanation:
Profit = Total revenue - Total cost
Total revenue = $2,750,000
Total cost = cost of purchase + interest + wages + taxes
= $1,800,000+$200,000+ 550,000 + 90,000 = $2,640,000
Profit = $2,750,000 - $2,640,000 = $110,000

Kathy is a financial analyst in BTR Warehousing’s. As part of her analysis of the annual distribution policy and its impact on the firm’s value, she makes the following calculations and observations:
• The company generated a free cash flow (FCF) of $87.00 million in its most recent fiscal year.
• The firm’s cost of capital (WACC) is 13%. The firm has been growing at 10% for the past six years but is expected to grow at a constant rate of 8% in the future.
• The firm has 21.75 million shares outstanding.
• The company has $232.00 million in debt and $145.00 million in preferred stock.
Along with the rest of the finance team, Kathy has been part of board meetings and knows that the company is planning to distribute $120.00 million, which is invested in short-term investments, to its shareholders by buying back stock from its shareholders. Kathy also observed that, at this point, apart from the $120.00 million in short-term investments, the firm has no other nonoperating assets.
Using results from Kathy's calculations and observations, solve for the values in the following tables.
1. Value of the firm's operations.
a. 6,833.33
b.1,366.67
c. 68.33
d.1,421.33
2. Intrinsic value of equity immediately prior to stock repurchase.
a. 888

Based on you understanding of stock repurchases, identify whether the following statement is true or false:
"The stock price of a firm increases after the firm repurchases some of its shares."
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below.
1. Value of the firm operations is
= Free Cash Flow × (1 + Growth Rate) ÷ (WACC - Growth Rate)
= $87 million × (1 + 8%) ÷ (13% - 8%)
= $1,879.20
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
2. The intrinsic value of equity immediately prior to stock repurchase is
= Value of Firm's Operations + Value of Non Operating Assets - Value of Debt - Value of Preferred Stock
= $1,879.20 + $120 - $232 - $145
= $1,622.20
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
3. The intrinsic stock price immediately prior to stock repurchase is
= Intrinsic Value of Equity Prior to Stock Repurchase ÷ Number of Outstanding Shares
= ($1,622.20) ÷ (21.75 million shares)
= $74.58
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
4. The number of shares repurchased is
= Cash Used for Repurchase ÷ Intrinsic stock price
= $120 ÷ $74.58
= 1.61
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
5. The intrinsic value of equity immediately after stock repurchase is
= Value of Firm's Operations - Value of Debt - Value of Preferred Stock
= $1,879.20 - $232 - $145
= $1,502.20
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
6. The intrinsic stock price immediately after stock repurchase is
= Intrinsic Value of Equity After Stock Repurchase ÷ Number of Outstanding Shares after Repurchase
= ($1,502.20) ÷ (21.75 million shares - 1.61 million shares)
= $74.59
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
This statement is false because if the stock price changes after a firm conducts its share repurchase, then there are arbitrage opportunities. Thus, the price of the stock remains the same after a repurchase
Suppose you have a choice of two equally risky annuities, each paying $1,000 per year for 20 years with similar interest rates. One is an annuity due, while the other is an ordinary annuity. Which annuity would you choose
Answer:
Annuity due would be be chosen.
Explanation:
Let us assume the similar annual interest rate is 10%.
To decide which to choose, the present values of the two annuities are calculated and compared as follows:
1. For annuity due
Under an annuity due, payments are made to investors at the beginning of each time period. The present value of an annuity due can be calculated as follows:
PVd = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1+r)]^n} ÷ r] × (1+r) .................. (1)
Where;
PVd = Present value of an annuity due = ?
P = Annual payment = $1,000
r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10
n = number of years = 20
Substituting the values into equation (1) above, we have:
PVd = $1,000 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.10)]^20} ÷ 0.10] × (1 + 0.10) = $9,364.92
2. For ordinary annuity
Under an ordinary annuity, payments are made to investors at the end of each time period. The present value of an ordinary annuity can be calculated as follows:
PVd = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1+r)]^n} ÷ r] .................. (2)
Where
PVo = Present value of an ordinary annuity = ?
P = Annual payment = $1,000
r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10
n = number of years = 20
Substituting the values into equation (1) above, we have:
PVo = $1,000 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.10)]^20} ÷ 0.10] = $8,513.56
3. Decision
Since the present value (PV) of the annuity due of $9,364.92 is greater than the PV of ordinary annuity of $8,513.56, annuity due would be be chosen.
On August 1, 2019, Pereira Corporation has sold 1,600 Wiglows to Mendez Company at $450 each. Mendez also purchased a 1-year service-type warranty on all the Wiglows for $12 per unit. In 2019, Pereira incurred warranty costs of $9,200. Costs for 2020 were $7,000. Required: 1. Prepare the journal entries for the preceding transactions. 2. Show how Pereira would report the items on the December 31, 2019, balance sheet.
Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
1.
August 1,2019
DR Accounts Receivable - Mendez Company $739,200
CR Sales $720,000
CR Unearned Warranty Revenue $19,200
(To record Sales on Account to Mendez Company)
Dec 31, 2019
DR Warranty expense $9,200.00
CR Cash $9,200.00
(To record Warranty Expense incurred)
Dec 31, 2019
DR Unearned warranty revenue $8,000.00
CR Warranty revenue $8,000.00
(To record Warranty Revenue Earned)
Dec 31, 2020
DR Warranty expense $7,000.00
CR Cash $7,000.00
(To record Warranty Expense Incurred)
Dec 31 2020
DR Unearned warranty revenue $11,200.00
CR Warranty revenue $11,200.00
(To record Warranty Revenue Earned)
Workings
Sales
=1,600 wiglows * $450
= $720,000
Unearned Warranty Revenue - this is the amount that Mendez paid for a one year service-type warranty.
= 1,600 * 12
= $19,200
Warranty Revenue for 2019.
The warranty was for a year but only 5 months have passed at year's end since August 1 so the 5 months will be apportioned to enable it to be recorded for 2019, the total Unearned Warranty Revenue received will be apportioned as such,
= 5/12 * 19,200
= $8,000.
So $8,000 will be considered as earned for the year 2019.
Warranty Revenue 2020.
The rest of the Warranty will be recorded and earned in 2020.
= 19,200 - 8,000 (amount for 2019)
= $11,200
b)
The Unearned Warranty Revenue remaining will be reported as a Current liability as the period of a Year has not expired and so it cannot be considered as earned.
Dec 31 2019
Partial Balance Sheet.
Current Liabilities
Unearned warranty revenue $11,200.00
Answer:
1. Prepare the journal entries for the preceding transactions.
August 1, 2019, sale of 1,600 Wiglows
Dr Cash 720,000
Cr Sales revenue 720,000
August 1, 2019, sale of 1,600 service type-warranties on Wiglows
Dr Cash 19,200
Cr Deferred warranty revenue 19,200
December 31, 2019, accrued warranty expense
Dr Deferred warranty revenue 9,200
Cr Cash 9,200
December 31, 2019, recognition of warranty expense for 2020
Dr Deferred warranty revenue 7,000
Cr Warranty liability 7,000
December 31, 2019, recognition of warranty revenue
Dr Deferred warranty revenue 3,000
Cr Warranty revenue 3,000
2. Show how Pereira would report the items on the December 31, 2019, balance sheet.
Cash account will increase current assets by $730,000.
We do not know the COGS, so we do not know exactly by how much will inventory decrease.
Warranty liability will increase current liabilities by $7,000.
Warranty revenue will increase retained earnings by $3,000. Since the warranty period expires during 2020, and the costs incurred are estimated to be $7,000, then we can recognize the remaining deferred warranty revenue as earned warranty revenue.
On July 1, 2022, Blossom Company sells equipment for $119000. The equipment originally cost $330000, had an estimated 5-year life and an expected salvage value of $50000. The Accumulated Depreciation account had a balance of $196000 on January 1, 2022, using the straight-line method. The gain or loss on disposal is
Answer:
Gain= $13,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $119,000.
The equipment originally cost $330000, had an estimated 5-year life, and an expected salvage value of $50000.
The Accumulated Depreciation account had a balance of $196000.
First, we need to calculate the accumulated depreciation on July 1, 2022.
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (330,000 - 50,000)/5= $56,000
Depreciation for 2022= (56,000/12)*6= 28,000
Accumulated depreciation= 196,000 + 28,000= $224,000
The gain or loss is determined using the book value:
Book value= 330,000 - 224,000= 106,000
Gain/loss= selling price - book value
Gain/loss= 119,000 - 106,000
Gain= $13,000
At the end of the current year, $22,650 of fees have been earned but have not been billed to clients. Required: A. Journalize the adjusting entry to record the accrued fees on December 31. Refer to the Chart of Accounts for exact wording of account titles. B. If the cash basis rather than the accrual basis had been used, would an adjusting entry have been necessary?
Answer:
A. Adjusting Journal Entries:
Dec. 31, 2019:
Debit Accounts Receivable $22,650
Credit Service Fee Revenue $22,650
To record fees earned, but not yet billed to clients.
B. No. If the cash basis rather than the accrual basis had been used, an adjusting entry would not have been necessary.
Explanation:
Adjusting entries are only required to align the cash-basis accounting records to the accrual basis. Adjustments are made for prepayments of expenses, unpaid expenses, deferred revenue, unearned earned and earned revenue, and depreciation charges. For an entity operating on a cash basis, adjusting entries are not required.
Adjusting entries ensure that accounting records comply with the accrual concept and matching principle of generally accepted account practises. The requirement under this concept with the matching principle is to accrue and match expenses and revenue to the related revenue and expenses and period.
The effects of inflation Suppose Friendly Airlines is considering signing a long-term contract with the union representing its pilots. Friendly Airlines and the union both agree that real wages should increase by 2%. Inflation is expected to be 3%, so they agree on a 5% nominal wage increase.
Now, suppose inflation turns out to be lower than expected, coming in at 2%. This would_______ the union and______ Friendly Airlines because the real wage increase would now be______ .
Because of uncertainty about future inflation, the union devotes a large quantity of resources to monitoring inflation indicators in order to maximize its financial position. This illustrates the fact that:______
A. Inflation harms lenders and helps borrowers
B. Variable inflation is associated with high transaction costs
C. Inflation obscures relative price changes
Answer:
The lower than expected inflation would benefit the union and not benefit Friendly Airlines.
B. Variable inflation is associated with high transaction costs
Explanation:
Inflation is a persistent rise in the general price levels.
It was expected that inflation would increase by 3% and because of that expectation, wages were increased by 5%.
As it turns out, inflation only increased by 2%. If employers were aware that inflation would increase by only 2%, the increase in income would have been 4%.
As a result of this, the company ends up paying more to workers and workers and up earning more. So, the union benefits while the airline is at a disadvantage.
Because of the uncertainty of inflation, the union dedicates high amount of resources to monitor its movements. This shows that there is a high cost associated with the uncertainty of inflation.

The total wage expense for Grande Co. was $ 156 comma 000. Of this total, $ 32 comma 000 was above the OASDI wage base limit and not subject to this tax. All earnings are subject to Medicare taxes, and $ 58 comma 000 was above the federal and state unemployment wage base limits and not subject to unemployment taxes. Please calculate and journalize the total payroll tax expense for Grande Co. given the following rates and wage base limits:
Answer:
Dr FICA OASDI (Social Security) tax expense $7,688
Dr FICA Medicare tax expense $2,262
Dr FUTA tax expense $588
Dr SUTA tax expense $5,586
Cr FICA OASDI (Social Security) tax payable $7,688
Cr FICA Medicare tax payable $2,262
Cr FUTA tax payable $588
Cr SUTA tax payable $5,586
Explanation:
Federal unemployment tax 0.6% = ($156,000 - $58,000) x 0.6% = $588
State unemployment tax 5.7% = ($156,000 - $58,000) x 5.7% = $5,586
OASDI 6.2% = ($156,000 - $32,000) x 6.2% = $7,688
Medicare 1.45% = $156,000 x 1.45% = $2,262

Explanation:
a) Trading securities are a category of securities that include both debt securities and equity securities. An entity holds them with the intention to sell in the short-term for a profit that arises from increases in the prices of the securities.
b) Fair value is an asset's selling price, which is freely agreed upon between a willing and knowledgeable buyer and seller. But, for Debt Securities, it represents the market value of the investments at any point in time when financial statements are being prepared. Investments that are held for trading purposes are required to be accounted for, using the fair value method. This implies that the gains and losses, both realized and unrealized must be accounted for whenever financial statements are bing prepared or when the investment is disposed of.
A company has a policy of paying salaries for contract labor on the 15th of the month following the labor services received. In December 2021, the company recorded $15,000 paid in salaries for labor services received in November 2021. In addition, labor services received in December 2021 were $12,000 and will be paid by the company on January 15, 2022. What adjusting entry will the company record on December 31, 2021? * I really need help with this*
Multiple Choice
a. Debit Salaries Expense and credit Salaries Payable for $3,000.
b. Debit Salaries Expense and credit Cash for $15,000.
c. Debit Salaries Expense and credit Salaries Payable for $12,000.
d. Debit Salaries Expense and credit Salaries Payable for $27,000.
Answer:
c. Debit Salaries Expense and credit Salaries Payable for $12,000.
Explanation:
The journal entry is shown below:
Salaries Expense $12,000
Salaries Payable $12,000
(Being salaries expense is recorded)
For recording this we debited the salaries expense as it increased the expense and credited the salary payable as it also increased the liabilities
According to the accrual basis of accounting, the expenses is recorded when they are incurred
So only $12,000 would be considered

Which of the following sentences use apostrophes correctly? 1. We used to back up our account files weekly and save them onto CD’s. 2 .The financial planner’s e-mail address was listed on his website. 3. Him recording's every conversation made his coworkers suspicious. 4. Making certain that all the timecards were submitted on time was Lorice’s responsibility.
Answer:
2. The financial planner’s e-mail address was listed on his website.
4. Making certain that all the timecards were submitted on time was Lorice’s responsibility.
Explanation:
The apostrophe (') is a punctuation mark used in English language to form possessive nouns, mark the omission of one or more letters and to indicate the plurals of letters in lowercases.
For example, forming a possessive noun; add an Apostrophe (') with the letter "s" i.e ('s) to nouns that don't end with "s" sound. Also, you can add only an Apostrophe (') without the letter "s" to nouns that ends with "s" sound.
For instance, the financial planner’s e-mail address was listed on his website, the writer's pen, the cat's eyeballs etc.
To indicate the omission of a letter (contraction), such as isn't, don't they're, I've, you're, doesn't, you've, they'd etc.

Frank purchased land containing oil reserves for $425,000. He has calculated his cost depletion for the year to be $20 per barrel for a total of $120,000 in depletion expense. He now needs to calculate his percentage depletion in case it is larger. His gross income from the oil extraction is $600,000 and he has $520,000 in operating expenses before depletion expense. Assuming this is domestic production, the amount of percentage depletion expense is $______1 of 3. If he uses this method he can deduct $________2 of 3 for tax purposes. He should use the______3 of 3 depletion method to maximize his deduction.
Answer:
1 of 3. $52,000
2 of 3. $68,000
3 of 3 Percentage depletion
Explanation:
The percentage depletion rate = 15% of gross income and limited to 65% of the net income
The gross income = $600,000
The operating expense = $520,000
The net income = $600,000 - $520,000 = $80,000
Therefore at 15% gross income, we have;
Percentage depletion rate = $600,000 × 0.15 = $90,000
65% of the net income gives;
$80,000 × 0.65 = $52,000
1 of 3. Therefore since 15% of the gross income ($90,000) > 65% of the net income($52,000), we have
The percentage depletion rate = $52,000
2 of 3. Therefore, he can deduct $120,000 - $52,000 = $68,000
3 of 3 He should therefore use the percentage depletion method to maximize his deductions
We therefore have;

You are a freshman in college and are planning a trip to Europe when you graduate from college at the end of four years. You plan to save the following amounts annually, starting today: $640, $690, $690, and $750. If you can earn 7.60 percent annually, how much will you have at the end of four years
Answer:
$2,980.4
Explanation:
To find the answer, we use the future value of an investment formula:
FV = PV(1 + i)^n
Where:
FV = Future value (the result we are looking forPV = Present value (the initial values that the question has given us)i = interest ratn = number of compounding periodsFor the first $640:
FV = $640(1 + 0.0760)^1
FV = $688.6
For the $690
FV = $688.6 + $690 (1 + 0.0760)^1
FV = $1,431
For the second $690
FV = $1,431 + $690 (1 + 0.0760)^1
FV = $2,173.4
For the final $750
FV = $2,173.4 + $750 (1 + 0.0760)^1
FV = $2,980.4
So at the end of four years, you will have $2,980.4.

As a student in the Principles of Management class of Ama Ghana University, you are expected to have experiential knowledge so that you can be able to solve real life business problems after graduation. To achieve this objective, the 2020 class has been divided into ten groups; and each team works in a management capacity with ten management consulting companies in the Greater Accra Region. San Consulting - the firm that your group works with is a project management company that is into Real Estate construction and management consulting. This firm which has twenty years’ experience in this business is the first choice for all individuals and companies that want quality service. You have on the contrary, observed that many of the management practices have not developed precipitously as situations in the business environment warrant. The accountant confirmed this by saying in the last general meeting that a certain percentage of San’s profit margin is being lost because of this situation. She gave the example that the surveying department spent eight labor hours generating data that had been generated two weeks ago by another unit. Due to the fact that the surveying department did not know that the data had already been created, a substantial effort was wasted and this has been a recurrent problem. In addition, the increase in demand of the services of San’s Consulting has placed significant pressures on the five managers whose duties are not clearly defined. For instance, you have observed that any of these managers perform duties in the operations department as well as any other unit within the firm. They are not able to perform all the functions required of them due to the ineffectiveness of the organizational structure. You and the members of your group are expected to write a report to the top-level management team regarding your analysis of the situation in the firm.

Most international business messages tend to be written in an informal, conversational manner. should be written following generally accepted principles for writing American business letters. use active-voice constructions. should conform to the conventions of the receiver's country.
Answer:
should conform to the conventions of the receiver's country
Explanation:
The more an international business adapts its operations to the specific culture of the countries where it operates, the more likely it is that it will succeed, since customers are very sensitive to their own culture, and lacking this understanding can result in ineffective communication, and less sales.
For this reason, interantional business messages should conform to the conventions of the receiver's country: like this, people in the receiver country will not only understand the message clearly, but will also feel identified with it, raising their level of trust in the company.
You are thinking about renting a room in a house next year with three of your friends. For each month’s rent, you are willing to pay $480, your first friend is willing to pay $450, your second friend is willing to pay $560, and your third friend is willing to pay $510. The landlord agrees to offer each of you separate leases but will charge you all the same price: $450.You decide this is a good deal, so you and your friends move in. A couple of months later, you learn from someone who knows the landlord that he would have been willing to rent each room for $400 per month.Part 1:What is the amount of producer surplus per month?PART 2:What is the amount of total consumer surplus per month?PART3:What is the amount of total surplus each month?
Answer:
$200
$200
$400
Explanation:
Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the least price the seller is willing to sell his product.
Producer surplus = price of the product - least price the producer is willing to sell his product
$450 - $400 = $50
Because there are four people , $50 × 4 = $200
Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the product.
My consumer surplus = $480 - $450 = $30
Ist friend = $450 - $450 = 0
2nd friend = $560 - $450 = $110
3rd friend = $510 - $450 = $60
Total surplus = $30 + $110 + $60 = $200
Total surplus is the sum of producer and consumer surplus.
$200 + $200 = $400

YadaYada expects to produce 1 comma 9501,950 units in JanuaryJanuary and 2 comma 1702,170 units in FebruaryFebruary. The company budgets 22 pounds per unit of direct materials at a cost of $ 50$50 per pound. Indirect materials are insignificant and not considered for budgeting purposes. The balance in the Raw Materials Inventory account (all direct materials) on JanuaryJanuary 1 is 5 comma 6005,600 pounds. YadaYada desires the ending balance in Raw Materials Inventory to be 8080% of the next month's direct materials needed for production. Desired ending balance for FebruaryFebruary is 4 comma 1004,100 pounds. Prepare YadaYada's direct materials budget for JanuaryJanuary and FebruaryFebruary.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production:
January= 1,950 units
February= 2,170 units
The company budgets 2 pounds per unit of direct materials for $50 per pound.
Beginning inventory= 5,600 pounds.
Yada desires the ending balance in Raw Materials Inventory to be 80% of the next month's direct materials needed for production. Desired ending balance for February is 4,100 pounds.
We need to use the following formula structure:
Direct material budget= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Direct material budget January (in pounds):
Production= 1,950*2= 3,900
Desired ending inventory= (2,170*2)*0.8= 3,472
Beginning inventory= (5,600)
Total= 1,772
Total cost= 1,772*50= $88,600
Direct material budget February (in pounds):
Production= 2,170*2= 4,340
Desired ending inventory= 4,100
Beginning inventory= (3,472)
Total= 4,968
Total cost= 4,968*50= $248,400
