Assume that at the end of 2019, Clampett, Inc. (an S corporation) distributes property (fair market value of $40,000, basis of $5,000) to each of its four equal shareholders (aggregate distribution of $160,000). At the time of the distribution, Clampett, Inc., has no corporate earnings and profits and J.D. has a basis of $50,000 in his Clampett, Inc., stock. What is J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution

Answers

Answer:

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution is $85,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution we would have to use the following formula:

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=original basis +increase/decrease in basis from gain from property distribution

original basis=$50,000

basis from gain from property distribution=$40,000-$5,000

basis from gain from property distribution=$35,000

Therefore, J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=$50,000+$35,000

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=$85,000

Answers

Answer:

D. $246,000

Explanation:

As per the given question the solution of direct material cost assigned to good units​ completed is provided below:-

To reach Cost transferred out we need to follow some steps which is following below:-

Step 1. Cost per unit = cost of material used ÷ Units started

= $300,000 ÷ 12,500

= $24

Now,

Step 2. Goods units completed = Started units × Cost per unit

= 6,250 × $24

= $150,000

Step 3. Normal spoilage = Cards units × Cost per unit

= 4,000 × $24

= $96,000

and finally

Cost transferred out = Goods units completed + Normal spoilage

= $150,000 + $96,000

= $246,000

To reach allocation of Cost transferred out we simply put the values into formula.

What is the amount of research and development costs that should be expensed in 2017

Answers

Answer:

The amount of research and development costs that should be expensed in 2017 is $413,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amount of research and development costs that should be expensed in 2017 we would have to use the following formula:

amount of research and development costs that should be expensed in 2017=  Materials and equipment costs+ Personnel costs+Indirect costs

amount of research and development costs that should be expensed in 2017= $111,000+ $131,000+$171,000

amount of research and development costs that should be expensed in 2017=$413,000

The amount of research and development costs that should be expensed in 2017 is $413,000

The amount of research and development costs that should be expensed in 2020

$ 99000 + $ 119000 + $ 159000

Answers

Answer:

a. $142,500

b. $86,250

Explanation:

a. The computation of the total direct manufacturing cost is shown below:

= (Direct material per unit + direct labor per unit)  × number of units manufactured

= ($7.20 + $4.20) × 12,500 units

=  $142,500

b. The computation of the total indirect manufacturing cost is shown below:

= (Variable manufacturing overhead per unit + Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit)  × number of units manufactured

= ($1.70 + $5.20) × 12,500 units

=  $86,250

Granite State Airlines serves the route between New York and Portsmouth, NH, with a single-flight-daily 100-seat aircraft. The one-way fare for discount tickets is $100, and the one-way fare for full-fare tickets is $150. Discount tickets can be booked up until one week in advance, and all discount passengers book before all full-fare passengers. Over a long history of observation, the airline estimates that full-fare demand is normally distributed, with a mean of 56 passengers and a standard deviation of 23, while discount-fare demand is normally distributed, with a mean of 88 passengers and a standard deviation of 44.
a) A consultant tells the airline they can maximize expected revenue by optimizing the booking limit. What is the optimal booking limit? (Hint: Use the standard normal cumulative distribution table)
b) The airline has been setting a booking limit of 44 on discount demand, to preserve 56 seats for full-fare demand. What is their expected revenue per flight under this policy? (Hint: First find the expected revenue when b= 0. Here you can assume Probability{df = k} = Ff(k+0.5) – Ff(k-0.5) and use a spreadsheet. Then using the recursive formula, find the expected revenue if b is increased by 1 until it reaches b=44 using a spreadsheet)
c) What is the expected gain from the optimal booking limit over the original booking limit?
d) A low-fare competitor enters the market and Granite State Airlines sees its discount demand drop to 44 passengers per flight, with a standard-deviation of 30. Full-fare demand is unchanged. What is the new optimal booking limit?

Answers

Answer:

Given data: One flight with total seats = 100

Full fare passengers, cost per ticket=$150, mean=56 passengers, SD=23

Discount fare passengers, cost per ticket=$100, mean=88 passengers, SD=44

(a) Here, though there is a hint to use the CDF, since the confidence interval is not given we will make some simplying assumptions that will reduce the complexity of the question, of course keeping the question statistically correct.

this question wants us to maximize total revenue per flight (one way), we can do that by taking only full fare passengers or total revenue will be 150*100=$15,000, but since historical probability shows a mean of 56 with a standard deviation of 23, we can assume in best case scenario total full fare ticket passengers will be 56+23=79, leaving 21 tickets for discount passenger, in this case the total revenues will be 79*150+21*100=$13,950

(b) Now, the new constrained policy is giving a clear cut number of seats to each category of pasengers, 44 for discount (total revenues 44*100) and 56 for full fare (total revenues 56*150) both of which are within the probabilities given earlier (full fare mean=56, discount mean=88). Total revenues in case will be 44*100+56*150=$12,800.

(c) Gain is the difference of the excess revenues in both cases of optimal total revenues and limited seats policy or answer (a) - answer (b) = $13,950- $12,800=$1,150

(d) Realistically speaking, there is no answer for this question without a clear cut confidence interval. Another simplifying assumption we can make here is taking the mean passengers as expected bookings (can be tweaked once confidence interval or degree of significance is given). so total revenues in this case will be 44*100 from discount and 56*150 from full fare passengers. That is still similar to answer (c) due to our assumption/lack of constraints, so our optimal booking will be 54 full fare tickets and 44 discount passenger tickets. You can also take worst case scenario by subtracting SD of each passenger type from the mean or go the best case scenario in which SD of full fare will be added to the mean while the pending seats (left over from 100) will be the total to discount fare for optimal revenue collection.

Given knowledge: One flight with a total capacity of 100 passengers.

Passengers paying full fare, the average ticket price of $150, mean of 56 passengers, SD of 23

Participants on a discount price, with a ticket cost of $100, a mean of 88 passengers, and a standard deviation of 44.

(a) Spite of the fact there is a hint to utilize the CDF because statistical power is not supplied, we will make some presumptions to minimize the complexity of the question whilst retaining statistical accuracy.

We can do so by hardly taking full-fare passengers, in which particular instance total revenue will be 150*100=$15,000, but since historical probability shows a mean of 56 with a standard deviation of 23.

we can assume that total full fare ticket passengers will be 56+23=79, leaving 21 tickets for discount passengers, in which case total revenues will be[tex]79\times150+21\times100=\$13,950.[/tex]

(b) This new limited program now assigns a specific number of seats to each passenger category: 44 for discount (total revenues [tex]44\times100[/tex]) and 56 for full-fare (total revenues [tex]56\times150[/tex]), both of which are within the probability (full fare mean=56, discount mean=88).

In this instance, total revenues will be [tex]44\times100+56\times150=\$12,800.[/tex]

(c) Gain is the differential between the excess earnings in both the ideal overall revenue and restricted seat policies or $13,950- $12,800=$1,150.

(d) Without a well-defined standard error, there is no real answer to this question. Another assumption we might make to make things easier is to treat the average passengers as projected bookings. In this instance, total revenues will be 44*100 from discount passengers and 56*150 from full rate passengers.

Due to our assumption/lack of limitations, our ideal booking will be 54 full-price tickets and 44 discount passenger tickets, which is comparable to the solution (c).

You may alternatively go for the worst-case scenario by subtracting the SD of each passenger type from the mean, or the best-case scenario by adding the SD of the full fare to the mean and using the pending seats (leftover from 100) to discount the fare for optimal revenue collection.

The I-75 Carpet Discount Store has an annual demand of 10,000 yards of super shag carpet. The annual carrying cost for a yard of carpet is $0.75 and the ordering cost is $150. The carpet manufacturer normally charges the store $8 per yard for the carpet.; however, the manufacturer has offered a discount price of $6.50 per yard if the store will order 5,000 yards. How much should the store order, and what will be the total inventory cost for that order quantity?

Answers

Answer:

5 units and $2,175

Explanation:

a. The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}[/tex]

=[tex]\sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{10,000}\times \text{\$150}}{\text{\$0.75}}[/tex]

= 2,000 units

The total cost of ordering cost and carrying cost equals to

= Annual ordering cost + Annual carrying cost

= Purchase cost + Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit  

= 10,000 × $8 + 10,000 ÷ 2,000 × $150 + 2,000 ÷ 2 × $0.75

= 80,000 + $750 + $750

= $81,500

Now in case of ordering 5,000 yields at discount price of $6.50 the total cost is

= Purchase cost + Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit  

= 10,000 × $6.50 + 10,000 ÷ 5,000 × $150 + 5,000 ÷ 2 × $0.75

= $65,000 + 300 + $1,875

= $67,175

Therefore there will be 5 units should store at a time and cost of inventory is 300 + $1,875 = $2,175

A company used straight-line depreciation for an item of equipment that cost $15,350, had a salvage value of $3,200 and a six-year useful life. After depreciating the asset for three complete years, the salvage value was reduced to $1,535 but its total useful life remained the same. Determine the amount of depreciation to be charged against the equipment during each of the remaining years of its useful life: Multiple Choice $2,880. $5,672. $1,215. $2,580. $3,200.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is $2,580.

Explanation:

Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($15,350 - $3,200) / 6 years = $2,025 yearly depreciation expense.

Accumulated depreciation at Year 3 = $2,025 x 3 = $6,075

Net book value (NBV) becomes $15,350 - $6,075 = $9,275

New depreciation is ($9,275 - $1,535) / 3 years = $2,580 yearly depreciation expenses

Harry and Meghan have considered starting their own business but are concerned about the possibility of losing even their personal assets if the business fails. One way for BOTH Harry and Meghan to avoid this liability risk would be to :

A.
divorce as soon as possible and establish two sole proprietorships

B.
Organize a limited partnership with Harry as the general partner

C.
set up offshore accounts

D.
form a corporation

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is D,form a corporation

Explanation:

The rationale for my choice of answer is that limited liability applies to a corporation which is found in other types of businesses.

Limited liability is a concept which implies that the liability of shareholders in a limited liability company is limited to the amount contributed to the business by a way of shares held in the company.

When a company runs into debt,the shareholders would not be required to make up such debts from their private pockets,hence Harry and Meghan personal effects are secure.

The way for Harry and Meghan to avoid liability risk is to form a corporation

Typically, a limited liability applies to a corporation which means that the owner liability is limited to the amount he owns in the business.

Limited liability implies that liability of shareholders is limited to the amount contributed to the business by a way of shares held in the company.

So, when company runs into debt, the shareholders would not be required to make up such debts from their private pockets,therefore, the investment of Harry and Meghan are secure.

Hence, the only way for Harry and Meghan to avoid liability risk is to form a corporation

Therefore, the Option D is correct.

Flyaway Travel Company reported net income for 2021 in the amount of $105,000. During 2021, Flyaway declared and paid $3,625 in cash dividends on its nonconvertible preferred stock. Flyaway also paid $25,000 cash dividends on its common stock. Flyaway had 55,000 common shares outstanding from January 1 until 25,000 new shares were sold for cash on April 1, 2021. What is 2021 basic earnings per share?

Answers

Answer:

The 2021 basic earnings per share is $1.68

Explanation:

In order to calculate the 2021 basic earnings per share we would have to use the following formula:

Basic EPS = (Net income - Preferred Dividend) / Weighted average common shares outstanding

According to given data:

Net income=$105,000

Preferred Dividend=$3,625

The calculation of the Weighted average common shares outstanding would be as follows:

Period                Months   Number of shares outstanding   Weighted Number

                             A                                    B                                     A*B /12

Jan 1 to Mar 31       3                                55,000                                13,750

April 1 to Dec. 31    9                               80,000 (55,000 +25,000)   60,000

                                                                            (40000+10000)

The Weighted average common shares  is 60,000

Therefore, Basic EPS = (Net income - Preferred Dividend) / Weighted average common shares outstanding

Basic EPS= ($105,000 - $3,625) / 60,000

Basic EPS=$1.68

Suppose that you are the international treasurer of Apple with an extra U.S. $10 million to invest for 9 months. You are considering the purchase of U.S. T-bills that yield 1.50% annual rate. The spot exchange rate is $1.00 = ¥100, and the 9 month forward rate is $1.00 = ¥110. What must the interest rate in Japan be before you are willing to consider investing there for 9 months? A. 14.5515 B. <8.8975 C. >13.4983 D. 12.5050

Answers

Answer:

Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%  

Explanation:

As per Interest Rate Parity Theory

Spot Rate : 1$ = 100

Forward Rate : 1 $ = 110

r = 9/12

As per interest rate parity, forward rate = Spot rate(1+Interest rate Japan)/(1+Interest rate US)

Forward rate = Spot rate *(1+ iD)/(1+iF)

110 / 100 = (1 + Japan Interest Rate * 9 /12)  / 1.01125

1.1 * 1.01125 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75

1.112375 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75

Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 1.112375 - 1

Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 0.112375

Japan Interest Rate = 0.112375 / 0.75

Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%  

In performing accounting services for small businesses, you encounter the following situations per taining to cash sales. 1. Poole Company enters sales and sales taxes separately in its cash register. On April 10, the register totals are sales $30,000 and sales taxes $1,500. 2. Waterman Company does not segregate sales and sales taxes. Its register total for April 15 is $25,680, which includes a 7% sales tax. Prepare the entry to record the sales transactions and related taxes for each client.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, journal entries of the given data are as follow:-

April  10

Cash A/c  Dr.  $31,500

 To Sales A/c $30,000

               To Sales tax payable A/c $1,500

(Being the sales and sales tax payable is recorded)

2. Since Register total for April $25,680 includes 7% sales tax.

So Sales of Waterman Company

= Registered Total Amount ÷ (1 + Sales Tax Rate)

= $25,680 ÷ (1 + 7%)

= $25,680 ÷ 1.07

= $24,000

Now

Sales tax = $24,000 × 7% = $1,680

b. Determine the variable cost markup percentage for cellular phones. Round to two decimal places.
c. Determine the selling price of cellular phones. If required, round to the nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer:

(a). Total variable Cost = $2,890,000

Total variable Cost Per Unit  = $289  

(b). Variable Cost Markup Percentage = 12.46%

(c). Selling Price Per Unit = $325

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

a). Total Fixed Cost = Selling and Administrative Expenses + Factory Overhead

= $140,000 + $350,000 = $490,000

Fixed Cost Per Unit = Total Fixed Cost ÷ Cost of Produced and Selling Units

= $490,000 ÷ 10,000 = $49

Total variable Cost Per Unit = Fixed Cost Per Unit + Variable Cost Per Unit

= $49 + $240 = $289

Total variable Cost = Cost of Produced and Selling Units × Total Cost Per Unit

= 10,000 × $289 = $2,890,000

b). Desired Profit = Invested Assets × 30%

= $1,200,000 × 30÷100 = $360,000

Variable Cost Markup Percentage = Desired Profit ÷ Total Cost

=$360,000 ÷ $2,890,000 = 0.1246 = 12.46%

c). Selling Price Per Unit = (1 + Variable Cost Markup Percentage) × Total Cost Per Unit

= (1 + 12.46%) × $289

= 1.1246 × $289

= $325

Answers

Answer:

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= $604 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Variable overhead 0.20 hours $ 6.50 per hour

The company used 1,510 direct labor-hours to produce this output. The actual variable overhead cost was $9,211.

To calculate the variable overhead rate variance, we need to use the following formula:

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= (standard rate - actual rate)* actual quantity

Actual rate= 9,211/1,510= $6.1

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= (6.5 - 6.1)*1,510

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= $604 favorable

Answers

Answer:

The principle that suggests that the distribution of income should be based on the contribution made by individuals to​ society's total output is known as:

C. the productivity standard.

The productivity standard fails to yield an equal distribution of income because:

A. individuals have different abilities and skills.

Explanation:

Generally speaking, productivity refers to how many units of output we can produce by using X amount of units of inputs. The higher the output, the more productive we are.

The same principle is used by the productivity standard to allocate resources in a society. This is a basic doctrine of capitalism that believes that more work and more productivity should equal more income. That is why capitalistic countries tend to have unequal income distribution.

The manufacturing overhead budget at Cutchin Corporation is based on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 2,800 direct labor-hours will be required in September. The variable overhead rate is $7.00 per direct labor-hour. The company’s budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $43,120 per month, which includes depreciation of $3,640. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The September cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:

Answers

Answer:

$59,080

Explanation:

The calculation of September cash disbursements is shown below:-

September cash disbursement = Company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead - Depreciation + Variable manufacturing overhead

= $43,120 - $3,640 + $7.00 × 2,800

= $43,120 - $3,640 + $19,600

= $62,720 - $3,640

= $59,080

Therefore for computing the September cash disbursement we simply applied the above formula.

Answers

Answer and  Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a)

For computation of contribution margin per unit first we need to find out the contribution margin per unit and fixed expenses which is shown below:-

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $46 - ($20 + $12 + $7 + $3)

= $46 - $42

= $4

Fixed expenses = Fixed manufacturing overhead + Fixed selling and administrative expenses

= $110,000 + $50,000

= $160,000

Break-even units = Fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= $160,000 ÷ 4

= 40,000  units

Hancock Medical Supply Co., earned $90,500 of revenue on account during Year 1, its first year of operation. During Year 1, Hancock collected $71,400 of cash from its receivables accounts. The company did not write-off any uncollectible accounts. It estimates that it will be unable to collect 1% of revenue on account. What is the net realizable value of receivables that will be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1

Answers

Answer:

$18,195

Explanation:

The computation of the net realizable value is shown below:

As we know that

Net Realizable Value of Receivables =  Ending Accounts Receivable - Estimated Uncollectibles  amount

where,

Ending balance of Accounts Receivable is

= Revenue on Account - Accounts collected

= $90,500 - $71,400

= $191,00

And,

Estimated Uncollectibles i.e  Bad debt Expense is

= Revenue on Account × given percentage

= $90,500 × 1%

= $905

So, the net realizable value is

= $19,100 - $905

= $18,195

The cost of producing 40,000 parts is $138,000, which includes fixed costs of $73,000 and variable costs of $65,000. By outsourcing the part, the company can avoid 30% of the fixed costs. If Blue Ridge Bicycles buys the part, what is the most Blue Ridge Bicycles can spend per unit so that operating income equals the operating income from making the part

Answers

Answer:

$2.17

Explanation:

The computation of maximum amount per unit is shown below:-

First we need to compute the avoidable fixed coast and total cost of making to reach maximum amount per unit

Avoidable fixed cost = Fixed cost × Fixes cost percentage

= $73,000 × 30%

= $21,900

Total cost of making = Variable cost + Avoidable fixed cost

= $65,000 + $21,900

= $86,900

Maximum amount per unit = Total cost of making ÷ Producing cost

= $86,900 ÷ 40,000

= $2.17

Therefore, for computing the maximum amount per unit we simply divide the total cost of making by producing cost.

Given this information, which of the following statements is (are) correct? I. All else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change. II. All else equal, the firm's stock price will go up after the payout change. III. All else equal, the firm's P/E ratio will increase after the payout change. Multiple Choice I only

Answers

Answer:

I only is correct. That is, all else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change.

Explanation:

Holding every other condition constant, the cutting of the company's dividend payout will lead to a permanent fall in the dividend per share and this will cause a decrease in price.

However, the cutting the company's dividend payout will increased the retention rate that will increase the growth rate of the company.

Therefore, all else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change.

 

On January 1, 2020, Pina Corporation sold a building that cost $263,240 and that had accumulated depreciation of $101,140 on the date of sale. Pina received as consideration a $253,240 non-interest-bearing note due on January 1, 2023. There was no established exchange price for the building, and the note had no ready market. The prevailing rate of interest for a note of this type on January 1, 2020, was 11%. At what amount should the gain from the sale of the building be reported?

Answers

Answer:

Gain from sale = $23,067

Explanation:

the none interest bearing note must be recorded at present value:

present value of the note = face value / (1 + r)ⁿ

face value = $253,240r = 11%n = 3

PV = $253,240 / (1 + 11%)³ = $185,167

the note receivable must be recorded at $253,240, but $68,073 will be recorded as interest revenue.

the journal entry for the transaction should be:

January 1, 2020, sale of a building:

Dr Notes receivable 253,240

Dr Accumulated depreciation 101,140

    Cr Building 263,240

    Cr Interest revenue 68,073

    Cr Gain from sale 23,067
