David performed the services as contracted throughout the hockey season. What was the amount of revenue David should recognize for year-end December 31, 2019 on the Bentley contract? A. $0 B. $16,000 C. $20,000 D. $28,000

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:

$20,000 (C.)

Explanation:

To calculate the revenue recognized for the year-end on the contract, the earnings and the period will be written out clearly as follows:

Total worth of contract = $28,000

August 31, 2019 revenue = $8,000

October 31, 2019 revenue = $8,000

December 31, 2019 revenue = $4,000

March 31, 2020 revenue = $8,000

Therefore, revenue recognized  for year-end December 31, 2019 on the Bentley contract is the total revenue received between August and December 2019, and it is calculated below as:

8,000 + 8,000 + 4,000 = $20,000

Multiple Choice Debit Interest Expense, $7,650. Debit Interest Expense, $5,100. Debit Interest Expense, $2,550.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is Debit Interest Expense, $5,100.

Explanation:

Note is a promissory note with a written promise made by the borrower to the lender (payee) to pay a certain, definite sum at a specified date.

Interest expense on the notes is calculated as: Principal x Interest Rate x Time

In this case, the total interest expense is $170,000 x 9%/12 x 6 months = $7,650.

Interest expense as at December 31, 2021 is therefore $7,650 / 6 x 4 = $5,100.

Conley Company has fixed costs of $17,802,000. The unit selling price, variable cost per unit, and contribution margin per unit for the company’s two products follow: Product Model Selling Price Variable Cost per Unit Contribution Margin per Unit Yankee $180 $99 $81 Zoro 225 135 90

The sales mix for products Model 94 and Model 81 is 75% and 25%, respectively. Determine the break-even point in units of Model 94 and Model 81. If required, round your answers to the nearest whole number.

a. Product Model 94 units

b. Product Model 81 units

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point:

a. Product Model 94 units =  160,378.38   units

b. Product Model 81 units= 53,459.46   units

Explanation:

The break even point in units is the minimum units of  each of the two products that  Conley Company should sell in order for it to make no profit or loss.

At this units of sales, the sales revenue would produce a total contribution exactly equal to the fixed cost of $17,802,000.

The beak-even point (total units) = Total fixed cost / average contribution per unitAverage average contribution per unit = ( 81× 75%) + (90× 25%) = $83.25

Break-even point =  $17,802,000/83.25 = 213,837.84   units

Product Model unit = 75%× 213,837.84   units

                               =   160,378.38   units

Product Model 81 units = 25% × 213,837.84

                                      =  53,459.46   units

The break-even points are 160,411 units for Yankee and 53,471 units for Zoro.

The unit selling price, variable cost per unit, and contribution margin per unit for the company’s two products follow:

Product Yankee: Selling Price $180, Variable Cost $99, Contribution Margin $81Product Zoro: Selling Price $225, Variable Cost $135, Contribution Margin $90

The sales mix for products Yankee and Zoro is 75% and 25%, respectively. To determine the break-even point in units for each model, we need to use the weighted average contribution margin (WACM).

Step 1: Calculate the WACM

WACM = (75% × $81) + (25% × $90) = $60.75 + $22.50 = $83.25

Step 2: Calculate the total break-even point in units

Total Break-even Point (units) = Total Fixed Costs / WACM Total Break-even Point = $17,802,000 / $83.25 = 213,882 units (rounded to nearest whole number)

Step 3: Determine the break-even point in units for each product

Yankee: 75% of 213,882 units = 160,411 unitsZoro: 25% of 213,882 units = 53,471 units

Therefore, the break-even points for Conley Company in units are 160,411 units for Model Yankee and 53,471 units for Model Zoro.

No-par common stock:  When shares are issued at no-par, it means that there is no set par value.  Par value is the nominal value of a share.  Issuing at no-par implies that the amount realized from the sale would be credited to the Common Stock without any to the Additional Paid-in Capital (APIC).

2. Issue of preferred 6% stock at par value:  This means that the stock was issued without additional paid-in capital.  The stock was issued at the nominal value without premium.

3. Issue of preferred 6% stock, $50 par at $65:  This stock was issued at a premium.  More was charged above the par value.  There is additional paid-in capital of $15 per share.  This additional is credited to Additional Paid-in Capital - Preferred.

Mariposa Inc is considering improving its production process by acquiring a new machine. There are two machines management is analyzing to determine which one it should purchase. The company requires a 14% rate of return and uses straight-line depreciation to a zero book value. Machine A has a cost of $290,000, annual operating costs of $8,000, and a 3-year life. Machine B costs $180,000, has annual operating costs of $12,000, and has a 2-year life. Whichever machine is purchased will be replaced at the end of its useful life. Which machine should Mariposa purchase and why?

Answers

Answer:

Machine B should be purchased because it has a lower equivalent annual cost

Explanation:

To determine the better of the two options, we would compare the equivalent annual cost of each options using a discount rate of 14% per annum

Equivalent annual cost = Total PV of cost /Annuity factor

Total PV of cost = Initial cost + PV of annual operating cost

PV of annual operating cost= Annual operating cost × Annuity factor

Annuity factor = (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

r- rate , n- years

Machine A

PV of annual operating cost = 8,000 × (1- 1.14^(-3)/0.14= 18573.05622

PV of total cost = 290,000 +18573.05622 =  308,573.06  

Uniform Annual cost =  308,573.06 /2.321632027 =  132,912.13  

Equivalent annual cost = $132,912.13

Machine B

PV of annual operating cost = 12,000 × (1- 1.14^(-2)/0.14= 19759.92613

PV of total cost = 180,000   + 19759.92613 =  199,759.93  

Equivalent annual cost =  199,759.93 /1.6466=$121,312.15  

Equivalent annual cost = $121,312.15

Machine B should be purchased because it has a lower equivalent annual cost

Wrote off $18,300 of uncollectible accounts receivable.

Received $669,200 cash in payment of accounts receivable.


In adjusting the accounts on December 31, the company estimated that 1.5% of accounts receivable would be ______.

Answers

Final answer:

The estimated bad debt at the end of Year 1 for the Liang Company is calculated as 1.5% of the remaining accounts receivable ($657,934), which results in $9,869.01.

Explanation:

The Liang Company ended its first year with some transactions that involved credit sales, account receivable payments, and bad debts. The company sold $1,345,434 of merchandise from which $18,300 was written off as bad debts and $669,200 was received in cash. To calculate the potential bad debts at the end of the year, we apply the bad debt estimation rate, which is 1.5%. This rate is applied to the total amount of accounts receivable left (which is the initial credit sales minus the cash received and the bad debts).

Here is the step-by-step process:

Calculate the total receivables at the end of the year: $1,345,434 (credit sales) - $18,300 (write offs) - $669,200 (cash received) = $657,934. Apply the estimated bad debt rate on the remaining receivable amount: 1.5% of $657,934 = $9,869.01. This value represents the estimated bad debts.

Final answer:

Liang Company will calculate the estimated bad debts at 1.5% of the adjusted total accounts receivable, which must be derived from the credit sales minus collections and write-offs.

Explanation:

The student's question is about how to account for the estimation of bad debts at the end of the fiscal year. Liang Company estimated that 1.5% of accounts receivable would be uncollectible. To calculate this, Liang Company needs to determine the total accounts receivable at the end of the year, which includes sales on credit, minus any collections and write-offs. If they have not provided the year-end total accounts receivable, the company would take the credit sales made during the year and adjust it for any cash received and any write-offs. The estimation of bad debts would then be 1.5% of the adjusted accounts receivable total.

A bank has book value of $5 million in liquid assets and $95 million in nonliquid assets. Large depositors unexpectedly withdraw $9.5 million in deposits. To cover the withdrawals the bank sells all of its liquid assets at book value. To raise the additional funds needed the bank sells the necessary amount of nonliquid assets at 80 cents per dollar of book value. As a result, the bank's equity will _____________.

Answers

Answer:

The equity will reduce by $1,125,000 or 1.125 M

Explanation:

Liquid assets needed to mange the withdraw = Withdrawal amount - Existing Liquid asset

Liquid assets needed to mange the withdraw = $9,500,000 - $5,000,000

Liquid assets needed to mange the withdraw = $4,500,000

Required Sale of Non-liquid assets = Liquid assets needed to mange the withdraw  / Ratio of sale to book value

Required Sale of Non-liquid assets = $4,500,000 / 80%

Required Sale of Non-liquid assets = $5,625,000

Change in Bank Equity = Required Sale of Non-liquid assets -  Liquid assets needed to mange the withdraw

Change in Bank Equity = $5,625,000 - $4,500,000

Change in Bank Equity = $1,125,000

The equity will reduce by $1,125,000 or 1.125 M

Answers

Answer:

From this information one can conclude that last period the variable overhead efficiency (quantity) variance was unfavorable.

Explanation:

The variable overhead efficiency variance measures the difference between the actual and budgeted hours worked with respect to standard variable overhead rate per hour.

Variable overhead efficiency variance can be calculated thus:

Actual labor hours less budgeted labor hours x Hourly rate for standard variable overhead

If the time it takes to manufacture a product and the time budgeted for it matches or performs well, the labor efficiency is favorable.

Variable overhead efficiency variance is deemed unfavorable when it takes the company more time than budgeted to produce. This also shows labor efficiency variance was unfavorable.

a. 7.72%  

b. 5.40%

c. 5.22%

d. 7.46%

e. 4.90%

Option B is the correct answer,5.40%

Explanation:

In order to determine the after tax cost of Baxter's debt,we need to first of all calculate the pretax cost of debt which is by applying the rate formula in excel.

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon payments the bond would make which is 30

pmt is the annual coupon interest on the bond=7%*$1000=$70

pv is the current price of the bond minus the flotation cost=$945*(1-3%)=$916.65

The fv is the face value of $1000 per bond

=rate(30,70,-916.65,1000)

pretax cost of debt=rate=7.72%

After tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-t)

t is th tax rate of 30% 0or 0.30

after tax cost of debt=7.72%*(1-.3)=5.40%

n the long run a company that produces and sells popcorn incurs total costs of $1,150 when output is 60 canisters and $1,100 when output is 90 canisters. The popcorn company exhibits a. diseconomies of scale because total cost is rising as output rises. b. economies of scale because total cost is rising as output rises. c. economies of scale because average total cost is falling as output rises. d. diseconomies of scale because average total cost is rising as output rises.

Answers

Answer:

Option (c)

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

A company exhibits economy when average total cost falls as output rises and company exhibits dis economy of scale when total cost rises as output rises.

In case of 60 canisters,

Average total cost = Total cost ÷ output

=$1,150÷60

=$19.17

In case of 90 canisters,

Average total cost = Total cost ÷ output

=$1,100 ÷ 90

=$12.22

Which indicates Economies of scale since total average cost decreasing as output increases.

The popcorn company exhibits economies of scale because average total cost is falling as output rises.

Given that,

When output is 60 canister, total cost is $1,150.When output is 90 canister, total cost is $1,100.We need to find the economies of scale.

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Output = 60 canister

Total cost average = Total cost [tex]\div[/tex] output

= $1,150 [tex]\div[/tex] 60 = $19.17

When, Output = 90 canisters

Total cost average = Total cost [tex]\div[/tex] output

= $1,100 [tex]\div[/tex] 90

= $12.22

Fulfillment Fulfillment costs represent those costs incurred in operating and staffing our fulfillment and customer service centers, including costs attributable to receiving, inspecting, and warehousing inventories; picking, packaging, and preparing customer orders for shipment; credit card fees and bad debts costs, including costs associated with our guarantee for certain third-party transactions; and responding to inquiries from customers. Fulfillment costs also include amounts paid to third parties that assist us in fulfillment and customer service operations. Certain of our fulfillment-related costs that are incurred on behalf of other business, such as Toysrus, Inc. and Target Corporation, are classified as cost of sales rather than fulfillment. (a) What type of cost is Amazon’s cost of sales, a product or a period cost?

Answers

Answer:

Cost of sales is a product cost since it is directly associated to the production of services by Amazon.

Explanation:

Another term for cost of sales is cost of goods sold. Even though Amazon provides services, it doesn't manufacture any goods, its cost of sales (or COGS) is directly related to the providing of the sales service.

Period costs are not directly associated to the production of goods or services, instead they are incurred as time passes, e.g. rent or interests.

Final answer:

Amazon's cost of sales is considered a product cost. It forms a crucial part of their business model, which combines economies of scale and technology to maintain low fulfillment costs.

Explanation:

Amazon's cost of sales is generally categorized as a varietal product cost. Product costs are directly linked to the manufacturing or purchasing of the goods that a company sells, which does represent a significant portion of Amazon's business model. In contrast, period costs are not directly tied to the production process and typically include expenses like administrative and selling costs.

Amazon has been able to succeed largely due to its effective use of economies of scale, keeping its fulfillment costs low by storing inventories in vast, technologically advanced warehouses in areas with lower rent. This approach, in addition to their online business model, enables Amazon to reduce the average cost per sale and maintain competitive pricing.

Duluth Ranch, Inc. purchased a machine on January 1, 2018. The cost of the machine was $21,500. Its estimated residual value was $6,500 at the end of an estimated 5-year life. The company expects to produce a total of 10,000 units. The company produced 850 units in 2018 and 1,300 units in 2019. Required: Calculate depreciation expense for 2018 and 2019 using the straight-line method. Calculate the depreciation expense for 2018 and 2019 using the units-of-production method. Calculate depreciation expense for 2018 through 2022 using the double-declining balance method.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Cost of acquisition - $21,500

Residual value - $6,500

Depreciable amount - 21500-6500 =15,000

Useful life = 5 years

Total units produced = 10000

Depreciation rate = 1/5*100 = 20%

Double depreciation raate = 40%

Depreciation                           2018                  2019

Straight line 20%*15000        3000                3000

Units of production

850/10000*15000                   1275

1300/10000*15000                                          1950

Double declining balance method

2018 = 40%*21500 = 8600

2019 =(21500-8600) *40%= 5160

2020  (12900 -5160)*40% = 3096

2021   (7740-3096) *40% =1858

2022 (4644-1858)*40% = 1114

Martha receives $200 on the first of each month. Stewart receives $200 on the last day of each month. Both Martha and Stewart will receive payments for 30 years. The discount rate is 9 percent, compounded monthly. What is the difference in the present value of these two sets of payments?

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Martha receives $200 on the first of each month. Stewart receives $200 on the last day of each month. Both Martha and Stewart will receive payments for 30 years. The discount rate is 9 percent, compounded monthly.

To calculate the present value, first, we need to determine the final value.

i= 0.09/12= 0.0075

n= 30*12= 360

Martha:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i + {[A*(1+i)^n]-A}

A= montlhy payment

FV= {200*[(1.0075^360)-1]}/0.0075 + {[200*(1.0075^360)]-200}

FV= 366,148.70 + 2,746.12

FV= 368,894.82

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/ (1+i)^n

PV= 368,894.82/ 1.0075^360

PV= $25,042.80

Stewart:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly payment

FV= {200*[(1.0075^360)-1]}/0.0075

FV= 366,148.70

PV= 366,148.70/1.0075^360

PV= $24,856.37

Martha has a higher present value because the interest gest compounded for one more time.

Final answer:

The difference in present value for Martha and Stewart's payments stems from receiving payments at the beginning versus the end of the month, with Martha's payments having a slightly higher present value due to earlier investment potential.

Explanation:

The question relates to the calculation of present value of annuity payments, received at different times, under a certain discount rate. Martha receives her payments at the beginning of the month, and Stewart receives his at the end of the month, both over a 30-year period with a 9 percent discount rate, compounded monthly. The present value difference between their payments arises because of the time value of money; Money received earlier is worth more because it can be invested to earn interest.

To calculate the present value of the payments for both Martha and Stewart, we would use the present value of an annuity formula considering the timing of their payments. As Martha receives her payments at the beginning of the month, her valuation would be slightly higher than Stewart's, who receives payments at the end of the month, due to Martha being able to invest each payment a month earlier over the 30-year period.

Suppose that a telecommunications company controls a large share of the national market. The government believes that the economies of scale in this industry are not significant, and, therefore, multiple smaller firms would be able to provide lower prices. Which of the following policy options might most effectively enable the government to achieve its objectives in this situation?Do nothing at all.Regulate the firm's pricing behavior.Use antitrust laws to increase competition.Turn the company into a public enterprise.

Answers

Answer: Use antitrust laws to increase competition.

Explanation:

If the aim of the Government really is to.improve competition then they should use Anti-trust laws to increase competition.

This question is rooted in the concept of Capitalism and focuses on its good side which is that competition is good.

With such a law coming into effect, the large market share of the big company can be redistributed to the smaller firms which would enable competition amongst them and the large company as well. Competition at base level is good for the Economy for two main reasons;

1. It will make companies more efficient as they strive to better than each other. They'll produce better products and be more cost effective.

2. The citizens and consumers gain better service at cheaper costs because again, the companies would be competing amongst themselves and introducing newer and better ways to capture market share.

Answer:

Turn the company into a public enterprise.

Explanation:

Base on the scenario been described in the question, the policy options might most effectively enable the government to achieve its objectives in this situation is turn the company into a public enterprise.

If the government belief that the economies of scale in this industry are not significant, and therefore, multiple smaller firms would be able to provide lower prices is true, it would be profitable for the market, When a natural monopoly, such as an electric utility, is forced to sell itself to a public institution, the private monopoly will become a public enterprise. Such a policy option, which might be chosen by a government that views electricity as a public good, is generally the European approach to providing utilities. A potential drawback of this approach is that government managers may have little incentive to keep costs down

Rexford Corporation produces three products, with costs and selling prices as follows: Product A Product B Product C Machine hours per unit 3 1 2
Maximum demand 500 units
Selling price per unit $30 $20 $15
Variable costs per unit $18 $15 $ 6
Contribution Margin per unit $12 $ 5 $ 9
Machining is the bottleneck. The total machine time available is 2,100 hours. What is the maximum contribution margin that Rexford can earn by optimal use of the constrained resource?

Answers

Answer:

$9,400

Explanation:

For computing the maximum contribution margin we need to do following calculations

Contribution Margin

Product A = ($12 ÷3) = 4

Product B = ($5 ÷ 1) = 5

Product C = ($9 ÷ 2) = 4.50

So, the ranking order would be product B > product C > product A

Now

Total machine hours available = 2,100 hours

And,

Time for making 500 units of B

= 500 × 1

= 500 hours

For making 500 units of C, the time taken is  

= 500 × 2

= 1000 hours

So the remaining hours left is

= 2,100 hours - 1,000 hours - 500 hours

= 600 hours  

So, for A the manufactured is

= 600 ÷ 3

= 200

And, finally the Maximum contribution margin  is

= (200 × $12) + (500 × 5) + (500 × 9)

= $2,400 + $2,500 + $4,500

= $9,400

Which of the following statements is true regarding the cognitive evaluation theory? This theory is based on three needs: need for achievement, need for power, and need for affiliation. This theory hypothesizes that extrinsic rewards will reduce intrinsic interest in a task. This theory proposes that employees inherently dislike work and must therefore be directed or even coerced into performing it. This theory states that the factors that lead to job satisfaction are separate and distinct from those that lead to job dissatisfaction. This theory is also called motivation-hygiene theory.

Answers

Answer:

This theory hypothesizes that extrinsic rewards will reduce intrinsic interest in a task.        

Explanation:

Cognitive evaluation theory: In psychology, the term "cognitive evaluation theory" is described as one the different theories that are being designed to determine the specific effects associated with external consequences on an individuals' internal motivation. However, the cognitive evaluation theory describes that an individual is being encountered with two distinct types of motivation i.e, the extrinsic and the intrinsic motivation that generally corresponds to two types of motivators.

Final answer:

The cognitive evaluation theory suggests that extrinsic rewards can reduce intrinsic motivation. It is based on three psychological needs and proposes that job satisfaction and dissatisfaction are separate factors.

Explanation:

The cognitive evaluation theory is a psychological theory that suggests that the introduction of extrinsic rewards can decrease intrinsic motivation. This theory is based on the idea that people have three psychological needs: the need for achievement, the need for power, and the need for affiliation. The theory proposes that when individuals receive external rewards for performing a task, it can undermine their internal motivation and interest in that task.

However, the cognitive evaluation theory does not state that employees inherently dislike work or need to be coerced into performing it. Rather, it focuses on how different types of rewards can affect intrinsic motivation. Additionally, the theory also suggests that factors leading to job satisfaction are separate from those leading to job dissatisfaction, indicating that they are distinct constructs.

The cognitive evaluation theory is sometimes referred to as the motivation-hygiene theory, but it is important to note that it is different from Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory of Motivation, which specifically focuses on job satisfaction and dissatisfaction.

Poseidon still possesses 40% of this inventory at the end of the current year. Saturn had established the transfer price based on its normal markup. What are consolidated sales and cost goods sold

Answers

Final answer:

Consolidated sales are $3,300,000 and consolidated cost of goods sold are $2,340,000.

Explanation:

Consolidated sales and cost of goods sold are calculated when a parent company owns a significant percentage of the common stock of another company. In this scenario, Poseidon Co. holds 70% of the common stock of Saturn Co. To calculate consolidated sales, we need to add the sales of both companies. In this case, Poseidon reported sales of $2,400,000 and Saturn reported sales of $900,000. Therefore, consolidated sales would be $2,400,000 + $900,000 = $3,300,000.

To calculate consolidated cost of goods sold, we need to add the cost of goods sold of both companies. Poseidon reported a cost of goods sold of $1,800,000 and Saturn reported a cost of goods sold of $540,000. Therefore, consolidated cost of goods sold would be $1,800,000 + $540,000 = $2,340,000.
