Answer:
c. $360 increase in excess reserves and a $40 increase in required reserves
Explanation:
Required reserves is the amount of reserves that is required by the Central bank that banks should keep.
Required reserve = reserve ratio × deposit
= 0.1 × $400 = $40
Excess reserve is the amount of reserves kept in excess of the required reserves.
Excess reserve = Deposit - Required reserve = $400 - $40 = $360

Contemporary project communications typically include both push methods such as blogs, and pull methods such as e-mail(A) True(B) False
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
This question is false because strategies are inversely exemplified in the communication of contemporary projects in this case. It would be correct to state that a blog is a pull method and an email is a push method.
The Push strategy refers to the way companies seek to push a product to a customer, that is, to look for ways to encourage consumers to buy a product, which is more about sending promotional emails.
The Pull strategy refers to the search of organizations to establish a relationship between the brand and the consumer, pulling the customer towards the product, which is more conducive to creating blogs, which generates diverse content that generate engagement and provides greater interaction. and creating customer relationship with the brand.
Thomsen Computer Company produces three products: Earth, Wind, and Fire. Earth requires 80 machine setups, Wind requires 60 setups, and Fire requires 180 setups. Thomsen has identified an activity cost pool with allocated overhead of $960,000 for which the cost driver is machine setups.
How much overhead is assigned to each product? Earth Wind Fire
Select one:
A. $320,000 $320,000 $320,000
B. $200,000 $150,000 $450,000
C. $240,000 $180,000 $540,000
D. $180,000 $320,000 $460,000
Answer:
The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Earth requires 80 machine setups, Wind requires 60 setups, and Fire requires 180 setups. Thomsen has identified an activity cost pool with an allocated overhead of $960,000 for which the cost driver is machine setups.
First, we need to calculate the manufacturing overhead rate:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 960,000/ 320= $3,000 per machine set up
Now, we can allocate overhead based on machine set up:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Earth Allocated MOH= 3,000*80= $240,000
Wind Allocated MOH= 3,000*60= $180,000
Fire Allocated MOH= 3,000*180= $540,000
The overhead assigned to each product is $240,000 for Earth, $180,000 for Wind, and $540,000 for Fire. Therefore, the correct option is C.
To determine the overhead assigned to each product, we use activity-based costing. Here, the cost driver is machine setups, and the total overhead is $960,000.
Step 1: Calculate the total number of machine setups
Total Setups = 80 + 60 + 180 = 320
Step 2: Calculate the overhead cost per setup
Overhead Cost per Setup = Total Overhead/Total Setups = 960,000/320 = 3,000
Step 3: Calculate the overhead assigned to each product
- Earth:
Overhead for Earth = 80 * 3,000 = 240,000
- Wind:
Overhead for Wind = 60* 3,000 = 180,000
- Fire:
Overhead for Fire = 180 * 3,000 = 540,000
The overhead assigned to each product is $240,000 for Earth, $180,000 for Wind, and $540,000 for Fire.

The firm’s target capital structure should be consistent with which of the following statements?Select one:a. Obtain the highest possible bond rating.b. Maximize the earnings per share (EPS).c. Minimize the cost of equity (rs).d. Minimize the weighted average cost of capital (WACC).e. Minimize the cost of debt (rd).
Answer:
A firm's target capital structure should minimize the weighted average cost of capital.
The correct answer is D
Explanation:
The maximization of earnings per share does not determine the optimal capital structure of a firm.
The minimization of cost of equity indicates that a firm pays a lower return to common stockholders. It does not impact on a firm's capital structure.
The minimization of weighted average cost of capital impacts on the target capital structure of a company because it maximizes the value of a firm. It determines a firm's target capital structure. This situation is referred to as optimal capital structure.
The minimization of cost of debt only reduces the return offered by a firm to debenture holders. It does not determine a firm's target capital structure.

In a recent news release Bloomberg.com reported that the existing home sales declined in December of 2012 (the released article: "Existing Home Sales Decline as U.S. Supply Dwindles", January 22, 2013). As is obvious from the title of the article, the author blamed the reduction in the level of sales on a reduction in the supply of existing homes (existing homes are homes that had already been owned, i.e. not new construction). Which of the following explanations might justify this blame?
Homeowners expect housing prices to increase in the future
Homeowners expect housing prices to decrease in the future
Homebuyers expect housing prices to decrease in the future
Homebuyers expect housing prices to remain constant.
Answer:
The correct answer is Option (A) Homeowners expect housing prices to increase in the future
Explanation:
Existing home sales decline was attributed to reduction in the supply of existing homes. The owners of existing homes would not sell their property only if they believe that home prices will increase in the future. Therefore, they can sell the property at a higher price later.
Had homeowners believed that home prices will decline in the future, the owners would have put-up existing houses for sale so that they get a better price now than wait to see the price decline.
Assume that the reserve requirement is 20 percent. First National Bank has vault cash and deposits with the Fed of $80 million, loans and securities of $320 million, and demand deposits of $400 million. First National: a. could extend a maximum of $10 million of additional loans. b. could extend a maximum of $20 million of additional loans. c. is not in a position to extend additional loans. d. could extend a maximum of $40 million of additional loans.
Answer:
The answer is (c) First National Bank is not in a position to extend additional loans.
Explanation:
Please find the below for detailed explanation and calculations:
The First National Bank current reserve ratio is calculated as : Vault cash and deposits of the Bank with the Fed/ Total demand deposits of the Bank = $80 million / $400 million = 20%.
As the First National Bank' reserve ratio is now equal to the Fed's Reserve Requirement, First National Bank can not further extend its loan portfolio's balance, otherwise, its reserve ratio will fall below Fed's requirement which is not acceptable.
So, the answer is (c).
If you invest $2,000 today for three years at 5% interest paid annually, you will earn a total of $______ in interest. Assume you re-invest all interest.
A. 205.00
B. 300.00
C. 315.25
D. 500.00
Answer:
Option (C) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Amount invested today = $2,000
Interest paid annually(r) = 5%
Time period(n) = 3 years
[tex]Future\ value=Present\ value\times(1+r)^{n}[/tex]
[tex]Future\ value=2,000\times(1+0.05)^{3}[/tex]
[tex]Future\ value=2,000\times(1.05)^{3}[/tex]
= $2,315.25
Therefore,
Total amount earn:
= Future value - Present value
= $2,315.25 - $2,000
= $315.25

Southeastern Bell stocks a certain switch connector at its central warehouse for supplying field service offices. The yearly demand for these connectors is 14 comma 200 units. Southeastern estimates its annual holding cost for this item to be $23 per unit. The cost to place and process an order from the supplier is $74. The company operates 300 days per year, and the lead time to receive an order from the supplier is 3 working days.
a) Find the economic order quantity.
b) Find the annual holding costs.
c) Find the annual ordering costs.
d) What is the reorder point?
Answer:
a) 302.28
b)3,476.23
c)3,476.23
d) 142 units
Explanation:
[tex]Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}}[/tex]
Where:
D = annual demand = 14,200
S= setup cost = ordering cost = 74
H= Holding Cost = 23.00
[tex]Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2(14,200)(74)}{23}}[/tex]
EOQ = 302.2811821 = 302.28
holding cost:
average inventory x holdign cost
302.28 / 2 x $23 = 3476.233594
ordering cost:
order per year x cost per order
14.200 / 302.28 x $74 = 3,476.233594
14,200 / 300 = 47.33 units per day
47.33 x 3 = 141.99 reorder point
Aster Company is considering an investment in technology to improve its operations. The investment will require an initial outlay of $800,000 and yield the following expected cash flows. Management requires investments to have a payback period of two years, and it requires a 10% return on its investments. Period Cash Flow 1 $300,000 2 350,000 3 400,000
Answer:
This question is incomplete. However, since it is talking about payback period. You can calculate it as shown below.
Explanation:
Payback period is the number of years it takes a project's expected future cash inflows to fully recover the initial amount invested.
Year CF Net CF
0 -800,000 -800,000
1 300,000 300,000 -800,000 = -500,000
2 350,000 350,000 -500,000 = -150,000
3 400,000 400,000-150,000 = 250,000
Payback period = Last year with negative net CF + (absolute net CF that year/ total CF the following year)
Payback period = 2 + (150,000/400,000)
= 2 +0.375
= 2.375
Therefore, it will take 2.38 years which is more than the required 2 years so you should reject this project.
Palmer Frosted Flakes Company offers its customers a pottery cereal bowl if they send in 3 boxtops from Palmer Frosted Flakes boxes and $1. The company estimates that 60% of the boxtops will be redeemed. In 2018, the company sold 1,350,000 boxes of Frosted Flakes and customers redeemed 660,000 boxtops receiving 220,000 bowls. If the bowls cost Palmer Company $3 each, how much liability for outstanding premiums should be recorded at the end of 2018?
a. $540,000
b. $100,000
c. $150,000
d. $276,000
Final answer:
The liability for outstanding premiums that Palmer Company should record is $150,000, which is calculated by applying the estimated 60% redemption rate to the total number of boxes sold, then taking into account the number of redeemed bowls, and finally multiplying the outstanding number of bowls by the cost per bowl.
Explanation:
The liability for outstanding premiums is the amount the Palmer Company must record on its balance sheet to cover the cost of all the premiums (cereal bowls) it expects to distribute but have not yet been claimed. To calculate this liability, we need to estimate the number of boxes that will be redeemed for the bowls and not just the number of boxtops already redeemed. The company estimates a 60% redemption rate, which can be applied to the total number of boxes sold to estimate expected redemptions.
To calculate the expected number of redemptions:
The company sold 1,350,000 boxes and estimates a 60% redemption rate, so we expect 1,350,000 × 60% = 810,000 boxtops to be sent in.Since it takes 3 boxtops for one bowl, this results in an expected 810,000 / 3 = 270,000 bowls to be redeemed.With 220,000 bowls already redeemed, that leaves 270,000 - 220,000 = 50,000 bowls outstanding.At a cost of $3 per bowl, this results in a liability of 50,000 × $3 = $150,000.Therefore, the correct answer is option (c) $150,000.
The liability for outstanding premiums at the end of 2018 should be recorded as $6,630,000. The correct answer is option d. $6,630,000.
To calculate the liability for outstanding premiums, we need to find the number of boxtops expected to be redeemed and then multiply that by the cost of each bowl.
Calculation:
1. Expected Boxtops Redeemed:
- Total boxtops available: [tex]\( 1,350,000 \times 3 = 4,050,000 \)[/tex]
- Estimated redemption rate: [tex]\( 60\% \)[/tex]
- Expected boxtops redeemed: [tex]\( 4,050,000 \times 0.60 = 2,430,000 \)[/tex]
2. Number of Bowls Given Out:
- Number of bowls received: 220,000
3. Liability for Outstanding Premiums:
- Number of boxtops redeemed but not yet received bowls: [tex]\( 2,430,000 - 220,000 = 2,210,000 \)[/tex]
- Cost per bowl: $3
- Total liability: [tex]\( 2,210,000 \times 3 = \$6,630,000 \)[/tex]
Final Calculation:
- Liability for outstanding premiums: $6,630,000

Lark had net income for 2018 of S103,000. Lark had 38,000 shares of common stock outstanding at the beginning of the year and 44,000 shares of common stock outstanding at the end of the year. There were 5,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding all year. During 2018, Lark declared and paid preferred dividends of $29,000. On December 31, 2018, the market price of Lark's common stock is $35.00 per share and the market price of its preferred stock is $55.00 per share. What is Lark's price eamings ratio at December 31, 2018 (Round any intermeciate calculations and your final answer to the nearest cent.)
a. 13.93
b.30.56
c. 19.44
d. 14.95
Answer:
price earning ratio = 19.44 times
so correct option is c. 19.44
Explanation:
given data
net income = $103,000
common stock outstanding beginning = 38,000 shares
common stock outstanding ending = 44,000 shares
preferred stock outstanding = 5,000 shares
paid preferred dividends = $29,000
common stock = $35.00 per share
market price preferred stock = $55.00 per share
to find out
Lark's price earnings ratio
solution
first we get here average no of equity share that is
average no of equity share = common stock outstanding beginning + common stock outstanding ending ÷ 2
average no of equity share = [tex]\frac{38000+44000}{2}[/tex]
average no of equity share = 41000 share
and
earning per share will be here as
earning per share = ( net income - paid preferred dividends ) ÷ average no of equity share
earning per share = [tex]\frac{103000-29000}{41000}[/tex]
earning per share = $1.80
so here price earning ratio will be as
price earning ratio = [tex]\frac{market\ price\ common\ share}{earning\ per\ share}[/tex]
price earning ratio = [tex]\frac{35}{1.80}[/tex]
price earning ratio = 19.44 times
so correct option is c. 19.44
Which of the following statements is most accurate? Select one: a. In process costing, estimating the degree of completion of units is usually more accurate for conversion costs than for direct materials. b. The FIFO method includes the cost of the beginning Work in Process inventory account in calculating cost per equivalent units. c. The FIFO method computes equivalent units based only on production activity in the current period, ignoring the percentage of completion in beginning Work in Process inventory. d. The FIFO method of calculating equivalent units of production merges the work and the costs of the beginning inventory with the work and the costs done during the current period. e. It is not possible for there to be a significant difference between the cost of completed units between the weighted average and the FIFO methods.
Answer: The correct answer is "c. The FIFO method computes equivalent units based only on production activity in the current period, ignoring the percentage of completion in beginning Work in Process inventory.".
Explanation: Process Costing is a special accounting method to identify and accumulate direct costs and prorate indirect costs of the same manufacturing process.
The statement "The FIFO method computes equivalent units based only on production activity in the current period, ignoring the percentage of completion in beginning Work in Process inventory." is the most accurate.
The most accurate statement regarding process costing and FIFO is that the FIFO method only considers the production activity and costs of the current period, excluding the completion level of beginning inventory.
Explanation:The most accurate statement among the options provided, focused on process costing, is c. The FIFO method computes equivalent units based only on production activity in the current period, ignoring the percentage of completion in beginning Work in Process inventory. This method allows for the separation of costs between what was already in process at the beginning of the period and the costs incurred during the current period.
Under FIFO, the beginning work in process costs are maintained separately, and the costs added during the period to the new production are then used to calculate the cost per equivalent unit. This approach is different from the weighted average method, which blends the costs of beginning inventory with the costs of production during the period.
It's necessary to recognize that accounting for costs using FIFO can result in significant differences when compared with the weighted average method, specifically when there is a change in the costs of production or when the degree of completion of beginning inventory is significantly different from the new production.

Aguilar Company is a priceminus−taker and uses target pricing. Refer to the following information: Production volume 601 comma 000601,000 units per year Market price $ 30$30 per unit Desired operating income 1616% of total assets Total assets $ 13 comma 700 comma 000$13,700,000 Variable cost per unit $ 19$19 per unit Fixed cost per year $ 5 comma 400 comma 000$5,400,000 per year With the current cost structure, Aguilar cannot achieve its profit goals. It will have to reduce either the fixed costs or the variable costs. Assuming that fixed costs cannot be reduced, what are the target variable costs per unit per year? Assume all units produced are sold. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
Target variable costs/ unit /year = $17.37
Explanation:
We reverse work this to get to target variable costs,
First lets summarize the data,
Production = 601,000 units
Price = $30
Variable cost = $19
Fixed Costs= $5,400,000
Desired operating income @ 16% = (0.16*13,700,000) = $2,192,000
We reverse work this as,
Sales (601,000*30) 18,030,000
Less Variable costs(GP - Sales) 10,438,000
Gross Profit (FC + Profit) 7,592,000
Less Fixed Costs 5,400,000
Profit 2,192,000
Variable costs/ unit /year = 10,438,000 / 601,000 = $17.37/unit

In public stock companies, inside directorsA. generally form the lower levels of management in an organization.B. are appointed by shareholders to provide the board with necessary company information.C. are not full-time employees of the firm.D. are more likely to watch out for shareholder's interests than external directors.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option B: are appointed by shareholders to provide the board with necessary company information.
Explanation:
First of all, a public stock company is a type of company whose main characteristic is that the ownership ir organized via shares of stock that are free trade on a stock exchange market
Secondly, an inside director is the name that receives an employee from the company whose main characteristic is thar according to the fact that he is very specialized about the inner working of the company then he might be appointed by a major institutional investor in order to facilitate the interest of that person by acting for best of the company.
Inside directors in public stock companies are part of the company’s senior management, they are full-time employees providing board with necessary company information, while their attention to shareholders' interests may be presumably higher due to their vested interests.
Explanation:
In public stock companies, inside directors are typically high-ranking executives within the company. Thus option A is incorrect. Option C is also not accurate because inside directors are indeed full-time employees. Concerning option B, it's partially true because while inside directors do provide board with necessary company information, they're not particularly appointed by the shareholders, rather they work as part of the company's senior management. Finally, whether inside directors are more likely to watch out for shareholders' interests than external directors is subjective. However, since inside directors are part of the company's ongoing operations, it can be adeptly assumed that they may have more vested interests in company's performance, benefiting both the company and its shareholders. Consequently, they may potentially look out for shareholders' interests more.

Free cash flow is a measure of financial performance that shows how much cash is generated by a company after accounting for capital expenditures like new projects or upgrades. To calculate it, we subtract capital expenditures from the net cash provided by operating activities.
For Outdoor Lighting Supply in 2018, the net cash provided by operating activities is $276,000, and they expect to spend $150,000 to modernize its showroom, which represents the capital expenditures. The free cash flow is therefore calculated as follows:
$276,000 (Net Operating Cash) - $150,000 (Capital Expenditures) = $126,000 Free Cash Flow.
Note that the net cash provided by financing and investing activities, as well as the cash dividends paid to stockholders, do not directly factor into the free cash flow calculation.
Me Online, Inc. is considering a project that has an initial after-tax outlay or after-tax cost of $220,000. The respective future cash inflows from its four-year project for years 1 through 4 are: $50,000, $60,000, $70,000 and $80,000. Sportswear Online uses the net present value method and has a discount rate of 11%. Will Sportswear Online accept the project?
a. Me Online rejects the project because the NPV is about -$22,375.73
b. Me Online accepts the project because the NPV is greater than $10,000.00
c. Me Online rejects the project because the NPV is about -$12,375.60
d. Me Online rejects the project because the NPV is about -$12,375.60
Answer:
a. Me Online rejects the project because the NPV is about -$22,375.73
Explanation:
The computation of the Net present value is shown below
= Present value of all yearly cash inflows after applying discount factor - initial investment
The discount factor should be computed by
= 1 ÷ (1 + rate) ^ years
where,
rate is 11%
Year = 0,1,2,3,4
Discount Factor:
For Year 1 = 1 ÷ 1.11^1 = 0.9009
For Year 2 = 1 ÷ 1.11^2 = 0.8116
For Year 3 = 1 ÷ 1.11^3 = 0.7312
For Year 4 = 1 ÷ 1.11^4 = 0.6587
So, the calculation of a Present value of all yearly cash inflows are shown below
= Year 1 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 1 + Year 2 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 2 + Year 3 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 3 + Year 4 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 4
= $50,000 × 0.9009 + $60,000 × 0.8116 + $70,000 × 0.7312 + $80,000 × 0.6587
= $45,045.05 + $48,697.35 + $51,183.40 + $52,698.48
= $197,624.28
So, the Net present value equals to
= $197,624.28 - $220,000
= -$22,375.80
We take the first four digits of the discount factor.

Mace Auto Parts Company sells to retail auto supply stores on credit terms of "net 60". Annual credit sales are $300 million (spread evenly throughout the year) and its accounts average 28 days overdue. The firm's variable cost ratio is 0.75 (i.e., variable costs are 75 percent of sales). When converting from annual to daily data or vice versa, assume there are 365 days per year. Determine Mace's average collection period.
A. 88 days
B. 44 days
C. 74 days
D. 60 days
Answer:
Mace's average collection period is 88 days
Explanation:
Credit terms is "Net 60" which means the customer will naturally pay within 60 days. Further it is given that account average 28 days overdue. This means it takes 28 more days to collect the amount of receivables. Therefore the average collection period comes to
60 + 28 = 88 days.
Wade Company is operating at 75% of its manufacturing capacity of 140,000 product units per year. A customer has offered to buy an additional 20,000 units at $32 each and sell them outside the country so as not to compete with Wade. The following data are available: Costs at 750% capacity: Per Unit $12.00 $1.260,000 Total Direct materials Direct labor 945.000 9.00 1.575,000 $36,00 $3.780,000 Overhead (fixed and variable) Totals 15.00 In producing 20,000 additional units, fixed overhead costs would remain at their current level but incremental variable overhead costs of $6 per unit would be incurred. What is the effect on income if Wade accepts this order? Income will decrease by $4 per unit. Income will increase by $4 per unit. Income will increase by $5 per unit. Income will decrease by $5 per unit. Income will increase by $11 per unit.
Answer:
Income will increase by $5 per unit
Explanation:
The income effect in case of the order accepted is presented below:
As we know that
Additional sales per unit $32
Direct material per unit $12
Direct labor per unit $9
And, the incremental variable overhead cost is $6 per unit
Since the fixed cost is the same so it does not affect the effect on income
So, the income effect would be
= $32 - $12 - $9 - $6
= $5 per unit
Since the answer comes in positive which means there is an increase in income
The effect on income when accepting an additional order is that the profit above variable cost will be $4800 with a 4% price change and a new quantity of 960 units.
Your current profit above variable cost is $4800.
Your price will change by 4 percent.
Your new quantity is 960 units.
If you raise the price, the profit above variable cost will remain at $4800.

Illustrate the following with supply and demand curves: In March 2015, hogs in the United States were selling for 81 cents per pound, up from 58 cents per pound a year before. This was due primarily to the fact that supply had decreased during the period. Show this change in the figure on the right.
1.) Using the point drawing tool, locate the equilibrium point for 2015 in the U.S. hog market. Label your point 'E'.
2.) Using the line drawingtool, illustrate the change in the U.S. hog market between 2014 and 2015. Properly label your line 'S2015'. (Hint: Perform the steps in the order given.) Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required objects.
Answer:
Details are bellow.
Explanation:
This case is about graphically describing the relationship between supply and demand in a market. As can be seen, the point of intersection between supply and demand is the equilibrium point of the system, and this varies according to supply and demand. In this case, supply has decreased in 2015 compared to 2014, which causes the price to rise from $0.58 to $0.85 while the number of units sold decreases.
RT is about to loan his granddaughter Cynthia $10,000 for 1 year. RT’s TVOM, based upon his current investment earnings, is 12%, and he has no desire to loan money for a lower rate. Cynthia is currently earning 8% on her investments, but they are not easily available to her, and she is willing to pay up to $1,000 interest for the 1-year loan
a.Should they be able to successfully negotiate the terms of this loan?
Answer:
They should not be able to successfully negotiate the terms of this loan within these parameters.
Explanation:
It has been provided that RT earns 12% on his current investments and would not like to receive an interest rate of less than 12% on the loan he gives.
if RT gives a loan of $10,000 for one year, he would charge an interest rate of minimum 12%.
Interest = $10,000*0.12
= $1,200
RT requires $1,200 in interest.
It has been provided that Cynthia earns 8% on her investment.
If she borrows $10,000 and invests the amount for one year, she can earn 8% return on such amount.
Earning = $10,000*0.08
= $800
Cynthia is going to earn $800
RT requires a minimum of $1,200 as interest for 1-year loan he gives while Cynthia can pay a maximum of $10,000 as interest for 1-year loan she takes. there is mismatch between the minimum expectation to receive of lender and the maximum expectation to pay of borrower.
Therefore, They should not be able to successfully negotiate the terms of this loan within these parameters.
Xion Co. budgets a selling price of $80 per unit, variable costs of $35 per unit, and total fixed costs of $270,000. During June, the company produced and sold 10,800 units and incurred actual variable costs of $351,000 and actual fixed costs of $285,000. Actual sales for June were $885,000. Prepare a flexible budget report showing variances between budgeted and actual results. List variable and fixed expenses separately.

Total fixed cost 270,000 285,000 15,000(U)
Profit 216,000 249,000 33,000(U)
Explanation:
In this report, the budgeted total variable cost is obtained by multiplying the variable cost per unit by the quantity of goods produced and sold.
The total fixed cost remains constant regardless of the quantity produced and sold.
Variance is the difference between the flexible budget and actual results.
Final answer:
To prepare the flexible budget report, we need to calculate the budgeted and actual amounts for variable expenses and fixed expenses. The flexible budget report for Xion Co. for the month of June would show an unfavorable variance of $27,000 for variable expenses and a favorable variance of $15,000 for fixed expenses.
Explanation:
To prepare the flexible budget report, we need to calculate the budgeted and actual amounts for variable expenses and fixed expenses.
Variable Expenses
The budgeted variable expense per unit is $35. Therefore, the budgeted variable expenses for 10,800 units would be $35 per unit multiplied by 10,800 units, which equals $378,000. The actual variable expenses incurred for 10,800 units are given as $351,000.
The variance for variable expenses can be calculated by subtracting the actual variable expenses from the budgeted variable expenses:
Variance = Budgeted variable expenses - Actual variable expenses
= $378,000 - $351,000
= $27,000 (Unfavorable variance)
Fixed Expenses
The budgeted fixed expenses are given as $270,000, and the actual fixed expenses incurred are $285,000.
The variance for fixed expenses can be calculated by subtracting the actual fixed expenses from the budgeted fixed expenses:
Variance = Budgeted fixed expenses - Actual fixed expenses
= $270,000 - $285,000
= $-15,000 (Favorable variance)
Therefore, the flexible budget report for Xion Co. for the month of June would show an unfavorable variance of $27,000 for variable expenses and a favorable variance of $15,000 for fixed expenses.
