Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Direct marketing and interactive marketing.

Explanation:

In a case of direct marketing here, they do research, identify customers, select media (TV, direct mail, internet), and create a campaign. But rather than guess whether the message worked, they track the consumer's response. How many people (and of what age, ethnic group, income level) called the number in the catalog, clicked the button on the website, or went to the store for their gift with purchase. This is because direct marketers can measure the results, they can make the next campaign even better.

While in the other hand, interactive marketing explained to be the fastest growing form of marketing where sellers do chats and explanations that comes off as convincing approach of their products to their buyers, this could be physically or online.

The Baldwin Company currently has the following balances on their balance sheet: Total Assets $255,213 Total Liabilities $151,328 Retained Earnings $47,588 Suppose next year the Baldwin Company generates $44,200 in net profit, pays $12,000 in dividends, total assets increase by $55,000, and total liabilities remain unchanged. What will ending Baldwins balance in Common Stock be next year? Select: 1 $79,097 $509,129 $381,753 $143,497

Answers

Answer:

$79,097

Explanation:

The accounting equation shows the relationship between the elements of a balance sheet which are assets liabilities and equity. This may be expressed mathematically as

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

While assets include fixed assets, cash, inventories, account receivables etc, liabilities include accounts payable, loans payable, accrued expenses etc.

Equity which represents the amount owed to the owners of the business includes retained earnings (which is the accumulation of the net income/loss over the years less dividends paid) and common shares.

Hence in current year,

Total equity = $255,213 - $151,328

= $103,885

If retained earnings is $47,588 then common stock

= $103,885  - $47,588

= $56,297

Change to equity next year

= $55,000

Change to retained earnings

= $44,200 - $12,000

= $32,200

Hence change in common stock

= $55,000 - $32,200

= $22,800

Common stock balance

= $56,297  + $22,800

= $79,097

Offenbach & Son has just made its sales forecasts and its marketing department estimates that the company will sell 232,200 units during the coming year. In the past, management has maintained inventories of finished goods at approximately one month’s sales. The inventory at the start of the budget period is 15,600 units. Sales occur evenly throughout the year. Required: Estimate the production level required for the coming year to meet these objectives.

Answers

Answer:

Production= 235,950 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales= 232,200 units during the coming year.

Desired ending inventory= one month's sales

Beginning inventory= 15,600 units.

First, we need to calculate the desired ending inventory:

Desired ending inventory= 232,200/12= 19,350

Now, we can determine the production for the year:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production= 232,200 + 19,350 - 15,600

Production= 235,950 units

When China reformed state-owned enterprises, it tried a new approach to choosing managers: it put managerial jobs up for auction. The bids for the jobs consisted of promises of future profit streams that the managers would generate and then deliver to the state. In cases where the incumbent manager was the winning bidder, firm productivity tended to increase dramatically. When outside bidders won, there was little productivity improvement. If incumbent managers were not generally more qualified, how can you explain this result?

Answers

Answer: The explanation is provided below

Explanation:

An outsider tend to overbid with a eye to get the job while, an insider manager bids a realistic performance that is achievable. An insider manager understands the factors which affect the organization's performance and then tries to take control of the factors.

People make or break organizations and there is a greater chance of the insider getting the support and cooperation of the employees in comparision to outside bidders. Also, an insider manager has a prospective that is long term with regard to his or her association with the enterprise while an outsider may come and then realize that he doesn't like the organization and then leave for a better enterprise.

Therefore internal managers are a better prospect of being given the responsibility to manage the enterprise.

Answer:

Explanation:

A stranger tends to bid excessively  to get the job. In contrast, the internal manager offers realistic, achievable performance. The internal manager understands the factors that influence the organization's performance and tries to take control of it. There is a greater chance that an insider will get employee support and cooperation than strangers . Insider manager has been in the organisation for and already know the rules that guide the company, The Dos ans Donts.. A stranger have lilttle or no knowledge about how the company is run and  can choose to stay or  he will go to a better company. Therefore, internal managers are in good position for   taking responsibility for running the welfare and activites of a company.

The Donut Stop acquired equipment for $10,000. The company uses straight-line depreciation and estimates a residual value of $2,000 and a four-year service life. At the end of the second year, the company estimates that the equipment will be useful for four additional years, for a total service life of six years rather than the original four. At the same time, the company also changed the estimated residual value to $1,000 from the original estimate of $2,000. Calculate how much The Donut Stop should record each year for depreciation in years 3 to 6.

Answers

Answer:

Cost of Equipment: $10,000

Less Accumulated Depreciation ($10,000 - $2,000 / 4*2):   $4,000

= Book Value (End of Year 2):     $6,000

Less New Residual Value:       $-1,000

= New Depreciated Cost: $5,000

Remaining Service Life:  4

Annual Depreciation in Years 3 to 6 ($5,000 / 4):  $1,250

Answers

Answer:

The variable cost per unit sold is closest to $14.85

Explanation:

In order to calculate the variable cost per unit sold we would have to use the following formula:

Total variable cost per unit=(Direct materials+Direct labor+Variable manufacturing overheads+Sales commissions+Variable adminsitrative expenses)

Therefore,Total variable cost per unit=$7.10+$4.00+$2.00+$1.25+$0.50

Total variable cost per unit=$14.85

The variable cost per unit sold is closest to $14.85

Explanation:

First and foremost the proceeds received from the bond issuance needs to determine the pv formula in excel as follows:

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

rate is the yield  to maturity of 9%

nper is the number of annual coupons payable by the bond which is 10

pmt is the amount of annual coupon i.e  $1,910,000*10%=$191000

fv is the face value of the bond which is  $1,910,000

=-pv(9%,10,191000,1910000)=$2,032,577.26  

premium on bonds issuance= 2,032,577.26-1,910,000.00= $122,577.26  

Fixed expenses are $384,000 per month. The company is currently selling 6,000 units per month. The marketing manager would like to introduce sales commissions as an incentive for the sales staff. The marketing manager has proposed a commission of $9 per unit. In exchange, the sales staff would accept a decrease in their salaries of $46,000 per month. (This is the company's savings for the entire sales staff.) The marketing manager predicts that introducing this sales incentive would increase monthly sales by 500 units. What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change?

Answers

Answer:

A reduction of $12,500 in net operating income

Explanation:

The net operating income/loss is the difference between the sales and the total costs.

The change in the company's net operating income is the net of the increased commission and the total decrease in salaries. The commission is a variable cost that is dependent on the total number of units sold.

Hence the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change

= $46,000 - ($9 * 6500)

= ($12,500)

Depreciation by Two Methods A storage tank acquired at the beginning of the fiscal year at a cost of $80,000 has an estimated residual value of $4,000 and an estimated useful life of 20 years. a. Determine the amount of annual depreciation by the straight-line method. $ b. Determine the amount of depreciation for the first and second years computed by the double-declining-balance method. Do not round the double-declining balance rate. If required, round your answers to the nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer:

a. Annual depreciation = $3,800

b. First year depreciation is $8,000' while second year depreciation is $7,200.

Explanation:

a. Determine the amount of annual depreciation by the straight-line method.

Depreciable amount = $80,000 - $4,000 = $76,000

Annual depreciation = $76,000 / 20 = $3,800

b. Determine the amount of depreciation for the first and second years computed by the double-declining-balance method. Do not round the double-declining balance rate. If required, round your answers to the nearest dollar.

Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / 20 = 0.05, or 5%

Double declining depreciation rate = 5% * 2 = 10%

First year depreciation = $80,000 * 10% = $8,000

Second year depreciation = ($80,000 - $8,000) * 10% = $7,200

Oldham Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on a variable manufacturing overhead cost of $4.00 per machine-hour and fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $87,822 per period. If the denominator level of activity is 4,100 machine-hours, what would be the fixed component in the predetermined overhead rate

Answers

Answer:

$21.42

Explanation:

The computation of fixed component in the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:-

Fixed component in the predetermined overhead rate = Fixed Overhead ÷ Machine Hours

= $87,822 ÷ 4,100

= $21.42

Therefore for computing the fixed component in the predetermined overhead rate we simply divide the fixed overhead by machine hours.

Explanation:

Net present value is the Net value all cash inflows and outflows in present value term. All the cash flows are discounted using a required rate of return.

Net Present Value = Initial Investment + Present value of reduced Labor and other costs

Net Present value = -$180,000 + $46,000( 1 - ( 1 + 13% )^-5 / 13% )

Answer:

Variable overhead efficiency variance $1,680  Favorable

Explanation:

Variable overhead efficiency variance:  Variable overhead efficiency variance aims to determine whether or not their exist savings or extra cost incurred on variable overhead as a result of workers being faster or slower that expected.

Since the variable overhead is charged using labour hours, any amount by which the actual labour hours differ from the standard allowable hours would result in a variance

Answers

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance= $20,628.3

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard quantity per unit of output 5.3 pounds

Standard price $14.10 per pound

Actual materials used in production 5,650 pounds

Actual output 790 units

To calculate the direct material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula.

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (5.3*790 - 5,650)*14.1

Direct material quantity variance= $20,628.3

Sheffield Corp. issued $7080000 of 11%, ten-year convertible bonds on July 1, 2020 at 96.1 plus accrued interest. The bonds were dated April 1, 2020 with interest payable April 1 and October 1. Bond discount is amortized semiannually on a straight-line basis. On April 1, 2021, $1416000 of these bonds were converted into 600 shares of $20 par value common stock. Accrued interest was paid in cash at the time of conversion. If "interest payable" were credited when the bonds were issued, what should be the amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020

Answers

Answer:

The amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 is $194,700

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Bond face value=$7,080,000

interest rate=11%

There are 3 months interest recognized from july to september, therefore, to calculate the amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 we would have to make the following calculation:

amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020=$7,080,000*11%*3 months / 12 months

amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020=$194,700

The amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 is $194,700

For the cost and price functions below, find



a. the number, q, of units that produces maximum profit



b. the price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit



c. the maximum profit, P.



C(q) = 70 + 17q



p = 77 - 2q

Answers

Answer:

a) The number, q, of units that produces maximum profit = 15

b) The price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit = 47 (currency not giben in the question)

c) Maximum Profit = P = 380 (currency not given in the question).

Explanation:

The cost function and price per unit function are given respectively as

C(q) = 70 + 17q

p = 77 - 2q

where q = quantity or number of units

a.) the number, q, of units that produces maximum profit

Total cost = C(q) = 70 + 17q

Revenue = (price per unit) × (Number of units) = p × q = (77 - 2q) × q = (77q - 2q²)

Profits = P(q) = (Revenue) - (Total Cost)

P(q) = (77q - 2q²) - (70 + 17q)

P(q) = -2q² + 60q - 70

To maximize the profits, we just obtain the point where the profit function reaches a Maximum.

At the maximum of a function, (dP/dq) = 0 and (d²P/dq²) < 0

Profit = P(q) = -2q² + 60q - 70

(dP/dq) = -4q + 60

At maximum point,

(dP/dq) = -4q + 60 = 0

q = (60/4) = 15

(d²P/dQ²) = -4 < 0 (hence, showing that the this point corresponds to a maximum point truly)

Hence, the number, q, of units that produces maximum profit = 15.

b.) the price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit

The price per unit is given as

p = 77 - 2q

Maximum profit occurs at q = 15

p = 77 - (2×15) = 47

Hence, the price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit = 47 (currency not given in the question)

c.) the maximum profit, P.

The Profit function is given as

Profit = P(q) = -2q² + 60q - 70

At maximum Profit, q = 15

Maximum Profit = P(15)

= -2(15²) + 60(15) - 70

= 380 (currency not given in the question).

Hope this Helps!!!

A) The number, q, of units that produce maximum profit is = 15

B) The price, p, per unit that creates maximum profit is = 47

C) Maximum Profit is = P = 380

What is the cost and price function?

When The cost procedure and price per unit procedure are presented respectively as:

C(q) is = 70 + 17q

p is = 77 - 2q

where that q is = quantity or number of units

a.) When the number, q, of units that produce maximum profit

The Total cost is = C(q) = 70 + 17q

When the Revenue is = (price per unit) × (Number of units) that is = p × q = (77 - 2q) × q is = (77q - 2q²)

After that Profits is = P(q) = (Revenue) - (Total Cost)

Then P(q) is = (77q - 2q²) - (70 + 17q)

Now, P(q) is = -2q² + 60q - 70

When To maximize the profits, Then we just obtain the point where the profit function reaches a Maximum.

When At the maximum of a function, (dP/dq) is = 0 and (d²P/dq²) < 0

Profit is = P(q) = -2q² + 60q - 70

(dP/dq) is = -4q + 60

Then At maximum point are:

(dP/dq) is = -4q + 60 = 0

After that, q = (60/4) = 15

Then (d²P/dQ²) = -4 < 0 (hence, showing that this point corresponds to a maximum point truly)

Therefore, the number, q, of units that produce maximum profit is = 15.

b.) When the price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit

The price per unit is given as

p is = 77 - 2q

Then Maximum profit occurs at q is = 15

p is = 77 - (2×15) = 47

Therefore, the price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit is = 47 (currency not provided in the question)

c.) When the maximum profit, P.

The Profit function is given as

Profit is = P(q) = -2q² + 60q - 70

Then At maximum Profit, q = 15

So, The Maximum Profit is = P(15)

Then = -2(15²) + 60(15) - 70

Therefore, = 380 (currency not given in the question).

Sales on account are $1,890,000. Cost of goods sold is $1,394,250. Required: 1. Calculate the following risk ratios for 2021:

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The risk ratios are calculated below:

1.  Account Receivable Turnover

= Net credit Sales ÷ Average Accounts Receivable

= $1,890,000 ÷ (($98,000 + $102,000) ÷ 2)

= $1,890,000 ÷ $100,000

= 18.9 times

It shows the relation between the net credit sales and the average account receivable

2. Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold ÷ Average Inventory

= $1394250 ÷ (($105,000 + $90,000) ÷ 2)

= $1,394,250 ÷ $97,500

= 14.3 times

It shows the relation between the cost of goods sold and the average inventory

c.  Current Ratio = Current assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= ($242,000 + $98,000 + $105,000 + $5,000) ÷ ($109,000 + $7,000 + $9,000)

= $450,000 ÷ $125,000

= 3.6 times

It shows the relation between the current assets and the current liabilities

d.  Acid Test Ratio = Liquid assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= ($450,000 - $105,000) ÷ ($125,000 )

= $345,000 ÷ $125,000

= 2.76 times

It shows the relation between the liquid assets which do not involved prepaid assets, inventory, etc and the current liabilities

e. Debt to Equity = Debt ÷ Equity

= ($109,000 + $7,000 + $9,000 + $110,000) ÷  ($800,000  + $357,000 )

= $235,000 ÷ $1,157,000

= 0.203              

It shows the relation between the debt and equity

The risk ratios are determined as follows:

1.  Account Receivable Turnover

= Net credit Sales ÷ Average Accounts Receivable

= $1,890,000 ÷ (($98,000 + $102,000) ÷ 2)

= $1,890,000 ÷ $100,000

= 18.9 times

It represents the relationship between the net credit sales and the average account receivable.

2. Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold ÷ Average Inventory

= $1394250 ÷ (($105,000 + $90,000) ÷ 2)

= $1,394,250 ÷ $97,500

= 14.3 times

It represents the relationship between the cost of goods sold and the average inventory.

c.  Current Ratio = Current assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= ($242,000 + $98,000 + $105,000 + $5,000) ÷ ($109,000 + $7,000 + $9,000)  

= $450,000 ÷ $125,000  

= 3.6 times

It represents the relationship between the current assets and the current liabilities.

d.  Acid Test Ratio = Liquid assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= ($450,000 - $105,000) ÷ ($125,000 )

= $345,000 ÷ $125,000

= 2.76 times

It represents the relationship between the liquid assets in which it does include prepaid assets, inventory, etc and the current liabilities.

e. Debt to Equity = Debt ÷ Equity

= ($109,000 + $7,000 + $9,000 + $110,000) ÷  ($800,000  + $357,000 )

Bramble Company purchased equipment on January 1, 2018 at a total invoice cost of $347000; additional costs of $5000 for freight and $32000 for installation were incurred. The equipment has an estimated salvage value of $11000 and an estimated useful life of five years. The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019 if the straight-line method of depreciation is used is:__________
a. $153600.
b. $136400.
c. $134400.
d. $149200.

Answers

Answer:

d. $149200.

Explanation:

Depreciation is a method used in expensing the cost of an asset.

Deprecation expense using the straight line method = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

Cost of asset = $347,000 + $5,000 + $32,000 = $384,000

( $384,000 - $11,000) / 5 = $74,600

Deprecation expense each year would be $74,600.

Accumulated depreciation in 2019 would be the sum of deprecation expense in 2018 and 2019

$74,600 × 2 = $149,200

(1) Warranty Expense -
(2) Estimated Liability from Warranties -
(3) Premium Expense -
(4) Inventory of Premium CD Players -
(5) Estimated Premium Claims Outstanding -

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

(a)

Given:

Warranty exp = 2% of musical instrument & sound equipment

Calculation:

Warranty exp = Warranty exp * 5,424,000

Warranty exp = 2% * 5,424,000

Warranty exp = 108,480

(b)

Warranty liability as on December 2017 = Opening Balance + Warranty Expense - Warranty Claim

Warranty liability as on December 2017 = 138,000 + 108,480 - 156,400

Warranty liability as on December 2017 = $90,080

(c)

The customer receives one coupon for each dollar spend 2,138,000 only 50% coupon will be redeemed.

Exp provision liability created = 50% * 2,138,000

Exp provision liability created = 1,069,000

Customer can exchange 200 coupon & $30 for MP3 player which is purchase for 42 that mean 200 coupon will be for 12 i.e. (42-30) value of coupon will be

12

200

= 0.06.

Value of 1,069,000 coupon = 1,069,000 * 0.06

Value of 1,069,000 coupon = 64,140

(d)

1,138,000 coupons had been redeemed during the year each MP3 player required 200 coupons.

Cost = 5,690 * 42

Cost = 238,980

Inventory Premium = Opening Balance + Purchases - Utilized Redeemed Coupon

Inventory Premium = 39,210 + (7,010 * 42) - 238,980

Inventory Premium = 39,210 + 294,420 - 238,980

Inventory Premium = $94,650

(e)

Premium liability balance = Opening Balance + Premium Exp Provision - Coupon Redeemed

Premium liability balance = 41,670 + 64,140 - (1,138,000 * 0.06)

Premium liability balance = 41,670 + 64,140 - 68,280

Premium liability balance = 37,530
