Answer:
For 6,800 units the the manufacturing overheads will be $ 3120
Explanation:
Particulars Average Cost per Unit
Direct materials $ 7.20
Direct labor $ 3.65
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.70
Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 2.90
Total Manufacturing Costs $ 15.45
The Manufacturing Overheads = Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead = $ 1.70 + $ 2.90 = $ 4.6 per unit
For 6,800 units the the manufacturing overheads will be 4.6 * 6,800=$ 3120
We calculate the manufacturing overheads for 6800 by multiplying it with the
manufacturing overheads per unit.
Assume that, on January 1, 2021, Sosa Enterprises paid $2,240,000 for its investment in 30,000 shares of Orioles Co. Further, assume that Orioles has 100,000 total shares of stock issued and estimates an eight-year remaining useful life and straight-line depreciation with no residual value for its depreciable assets.
At January 1, 2021, the book value of Orioles' identifiable net assets was $7,260,000, and the fair value of Orioles was $10,000,000. The difference between Orioles' fair value and the book value of its identifiable net assets is attributable to $1,950,000 of land and the remainder to depreciable assets. Goodwill was not part of this transaction. The following information pertains to Orioles during 2021:
Net Income $ 500,000 Dividends declared and paid $ 300,000 Market price of common stock on 12/31/2021 $ 80 /shareWhat amount would Sosa Enterprises report in its year-end 2021 balance sheet for its investment in Orioles Co.?
Answer:
Amount reported in the year-end 2021 is $2,270,375
Explanation:
[tex]\text{The percentage of investment in Orioles} = \frac{30000 \ shares }{100000 \ shares} = 30 \ percent.[/tex]
The difference between fair value and the book value attributable to depreciable assets = $10,000,000 -$7,260,000 -$1,950,000
=$790,000
Attributable to depreciation assets:
[tex]= \frac{790000}{8 \ years} \times 30 percent \\[/tex]
[tex]= 29625 dollars.[/tex]
Balance sheet for its investment in Orioles:
Particulars Amount
Cash paid to Orioles = $2,240,000
Add: net income (500,000 *30%) = $150,000

Job 397 was recently completed. The following data have been recorded on its job cost sheet. Direct materials $59,400 Direct labor-hours 1,254 DLHs Direct labor wage rate $11 per DLH Number of units completed 3,300 units The company applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $37 per direct labor-hour. Required: What's the unit product cost that would appear on the job cost sheet for this job
Answer:
$36.24
Explanation:
The computation of unit product cost is shown below:-
Unit product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead) ÷ Unit completed
= ($59,400 + (1254 × $11) + (1254 × $37)) ÷ 3,300
= ($59,400 + $13,794 + $46,398) ÷ 3,300
= $119,592 ÷ 3,300
= $36.24
Therefore for computing the units product cost we simply applied the above formula.

c. acknowledges that when retained earnings are used up as a source of equity, the cost of capital rises as new common stock is sold to support more growth and recognizes that the return from the last dollar of funds generated should be greater than or equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised.
d. acknowledges that when retained earnings are used up as a source of equity, the cost of capital rises as new common stock is sold to support more growth.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option B: recognizes that the return from the last dollar of funds generated should be greater than or equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised.
Explanation:
To begin with, the concept of ''marginal cost of capital'' refers to the composite rate of return that is required by the shareholders and the debt-holders in order to establish a new investment in the actual company. Moreover, this type of cost relates to the weighted average cost of the last dollar of new capital raised by the company and is has the necessity of being greater than or at least equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised due to the fact that only in that way the investors will consider to invest again in a new project for the company.

Company A sells paper coffee cups to all Caribou Coffee locations in the US. Company B sells dinner plates to Applebee’s. Company A charges $1 for a pack of 100 cups and Company B charges $3 for 1 dinner plate. Tell us exactly what information you would need to determine whether Company A or Company B has higher annual revenue and explain how you would calculate these two figures.
Answer:
Company A and Company B
Determination of annual revenue:
a) The information needed to determine which company has higher annual revenue include:
i) The annual quantities of packs of paper coffee cups sold to the Caribou Coffee locations in the US for a number of years.
ii) The annual quantities of dinner plates sold to Applebee's for the same years as above.
b) The annual revenues can be calculated by multiplying the price for a pack of 100 cups by the annual quantity sold.
Explanation:
Revenue is a function of price and quantity sold. The price is unit selling price and the quantity depends on the period for which revenue is being computed.
Revenue is the earnings from the sale of goods and services. The excess of revenue over cost of sales gives the gross profit, from which expenses would be deducted to arrive at net income after adding other incomes from non-operational activities.

The contract states that Guarder will earn a fixed fee of $35,000 and earn an additional $10,000 bonus if Smith achieves $100,000 of cost savings. Guarder estimates a 55% chance that Smith will achieve $100,000 of cost savings. Assuming that Guarder determines the transaction price as the expected value of consideration, what transaction price will Guarder estimate for this contract
Answer:
The transaction price that Guarder will estimate for this contract is $40,500
Explanation:
In order to calculate what transaction price will Guarder estimate for this contract Assuming that Guarder determines the transaction price as the expected value of consideration, we would have to calculate the expected value of expected consideration as follows:
expected value of expected consideration=Fixed Fee + Additional Income
expected value of expected consideration=$35,000+($10,000*55%)
expected value of expected consideration=$35,000+$5,500
expected value of expected consideration=$40,500
The transaction price that Guarder will estimate for this contract is $40,500

The budgeted cost of goods sold for June would be
Answer:
The budgeted cost of goods sold for June would be $ 13,320,000
Explanation:
Budgeted cost per unit = $30
Sales budget = 370,000 units
Less: Beginning inventory = 86,000 units
Add: Ending inventory = 160,000 units
Therefore budgeted cost of goods sold for June = (370,000 - 86,000 + 160,000) × $30
= 444,000 × $30
= $13,320,000

Answer:
The amount of Bad Debt Expense recognized during the year is $41,500.
Explanation:
Bad debt expense is an estimate of the accounts receivable that is deemed uncollectible. At times, it is determined by percentage of credit method or aging method.
If the allowance account had an opening balance of $31,500 before adjustment and there was no rite-off during the period, with a closing balance of $73,000, the bad debt expense is simply the difference between the closing balance and the opening balance, that is , $73,000 - $31,500 = $41,500.

Answer:
b. an increase in the capital stock, but not an increase in the price level.
Explanation:
In order to understand both short-run economic fluctuations and how the economy movement from short to long run, we need the aggregate supply and aggregate demand model.
An increase in the capital stock, but not an increase in the price level would shift the long-run aggregate supply curve right.
The long-run aggregate supply curve would shift rightward when immigration from foreign countries rises or technology improves.
When the price level rises, the wealth effect and the interest-rate effect provide incentives for consumers to spend less. The price level of goods and services in an economy influences the exchange rate, imports and exports
n the Month of March, Chester Corporation received orders of 180 units at a price of $15.00 for their product Cid. Chester uses the accrual method of accounting and offers 30 day credit terms. Chester delivers 120 units in March and the balance of 60 units in April. They received payment for 60 units in March, 60 units in April, and 60 units in May. How much revenue is recognized on the March income statement from this order? How much in the April Income statement? (Answer in thousands)

A well-known financial writer argues that he can earn 148 percent per year buying wine by the case. Specifically, he assumes that he will consume one $12 bottle of fine Bordeaux per week for the next 12 weeks. He can either pay $12 per week or buy a case of 12 bottles today. If he buys the case, he receives a 9 percent discount and, by doing so, earns the 148 percent. Assume he buys the wine and consumes the first bottle today. Calculate the EAR.
Answer:
EAR = 148%
Explanation:
calculating the EAR ( applying the formula for present value of annuity )
cost of case = 12 * 12 * ( 1 - 0.09 ) = 131.04
Pv = 131.04
cost per case = $12
no of weeks = 12 weeks
rate of the wine per ( IRR ) = IRR(57;56;55;;;;1)= 1.76319
rate of the wine per week = 1.76319%
therefore EAR = ( 1 + 0.0176319) ^52 - 1 = 148.15% ≈ 148%

The standard price per gram for Whiplash, Ltd. is closest to:
Answer:
$2 per gram.
Explanation:
We are given the following parameters in the question above; the production of output in July: Actual number of units of output produced = 7,800 units, the Materials quantity variance = $2,609, the favorable (F) Materials spending variance = $3,744, the Favorable (F) Standard amount of materials used per unit of output = 5.0 grams per unit , the Actual total materials purchased/used = 37,830 grams and the Actual price per gram purchased/used = $2.20 per gram.
(37,830 × standard price) - (37,830 × 2.2 ) =$3,744.
Thus, (37,830 × standard price) = 79482.
Approximately, standard price = $2 per gram
Answer:
The standard price per gram for Whiplash, Ltd. is closest to $2.23 per gram
Explanation:
In order to calculate the The standard price per gram for Whiplash, Ltd we would have to use the following formula:
Material quantity variance=(standard quantity-Actual quantity)×standard price
$2,609=(5 grams×7,800-37,830)×standard price
$2,609=(39,000-37,830)×standard price
$2,609=1,170 grams×standard price
standard price=$2,609/1,170 grams
standard price=$2.23 per gram
The standard price per gram for Whiplash, Ltd. is closest to $2.23 per gram

The Refining Department of SweetBeet, Inc. had 79,000 tons of sugar to account for in July. Of the 79,000 tons, 49,000 tons were completed and transferred to the Boiling Department, and the remaining 30,000 tons were 50% complete. The materials required for production are added at the beginning of the process. Conversion costs are added evenly throughout the refining process. The weighted-average method is used. Calculate the total equivalent units of production for direct materials.
Answer:
79,000 tons
Explanation:
When you use the weighted average method for determining equivalent units, the total number of equivalent units = units completed and transferred out + equivalent units in ending inventory.
In this case, since the materials are added at the beginning of the production process, all the units are 100% complete regarding direct materials.
