Total interest expense for Year 1:
Straight- Effective
Line Method Interest Method
December 31, Year 1 $418,738 $410,171 ($6,836,187 * 6%)
= Cash payment + Semi-annual
Amortization of bonds discount
= ($396,000 + $22,738)
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Face value of bonds issued = $7,200,0
Cash received = $6,836,187
Total bonds discount = $363,813 ($7,200,000 - $6,836,187)
Period of bonds = 8 years
Interest rate of bonds = 11%
Effective interest rate = 12%
Semi-annual cash payment = $396,000 ($7,200,000 * 11% * 6/12)
First interest expense on December 31 Year 1 = $410,171 ($6,836,187 * 12% * 6/12)
Amortization of bond discount for the first six months = $14,171 ($410,171 - $396,000)
Bond balance after the first six months = $6,850,358 ($6,836,187 + $14,171)
Second interest expense on June 30, Year 2 = $411,021 ($6,850,358 * 6%)
Amortization of bond discount for the second six months (June 30, Year 2) = $15,021 ($411,021 - $396,000)
Bond balance on June 30, Year 2 = $6,865,379 ($6,850,358 + $15,021)
Straight-line method amortization:
Semi-annual amortization of bond discount = $22,738 ($363,813/16)
Interest expense = $396,000
Since 1970, Super Rise, Inc., has provided maintenance services for elevators. On January 1, 2016, Super Rise obtains a contract to maintain an elevator in a 90-story building in New York City for 10 months and receives a fixed payment of $95,000.
The contract specifies that Super Rise will receive an additional $47,500 at the end of the 10 months if there is no unexpected delay, stoppage, or accident during the year.
Super Rise estimates variable consideration to be the most likely amount it will receive.
Required:
1. Assume that, because the building sees a constant flux of people throughout the day, Super Rise is allowed to access the elevators and related mechanical equipment only between 3am and 5am on any given day, which is insufficient to perform some of the more time-consuming repair work. As a result, Super Rise believes that unexpected delays are likely and that it will not earn the bonus. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on January 1. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, record "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
2. Assume instead that Super Rise knows at the inception of the contract that it will be given unlimited access to the elevators and related equipment each day, with the right to schedule repair sessions any time. When given these terms and conditions, Super Rise has never had any delays or accidents in the past. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on January 31 to record one month of revenue.(If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Record any necessary entry on January 31 to record one month of revenue
3. Assume the same facts as requirement 1. In addition assume that, on May 31, Super Rise determines that it does not need to spend more than two hours on any given day to operate the elevator safely because the client’s elevator is relatively new. Therefore, Super Rise believes that unexpected delays are very unlikely. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on May 31 to recognize May revenue and any necessary revision in its estimated bonus receivable. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Record any necessary entry on May 31 to recognize May revenue and any necessary revision in its estimated bonus receivable.

Elfalan Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 51,000 units per month is as follows:
Direct materials $48.10
Direct labor $9.20
Variable manufacturing overhead $2.20
Fixed manufacturing overhead $19.50
Variable selling & administrative expense $4.00
Fixed selling & administrative expense $19.00
The normal selling price of the product is $108.10 per unit.
An order has been received from an overseas customer for 3,100 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $2.30 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.
Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.
Suppose there is not enough idle capacity to produce all of the units for the overseas customer and accepting the special order would require cutting back on production of 1,250 units for regular customers.
The minimum acceptable price per unit for the special order is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
a. $92.10 per unit
b. $108.10 per unit
c. $69.10 per unit
d. $79.18 per unit
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Direct material = $48.10
Direct labor = $9.20
Variable manufacturing = $2.20
Fixed manufacturing = $19.50
Variable admin expenses = $4.0
Selling price = $108.10
Profit =
Contribution per unit =
New order = $3,100 units
Direct material = $48.10
Direct labor = $9.20
Variable manufacturing = $2.20
Which statement concerning the kinked demand curve model of oligopoly is false? The portion of the demand curve above the "kink" is more elastic than the portion below. The firm's marginal costs can sometimes shift without changing the profit-maximizing price and output. It assumes when one oligopolist raises the price, all others will follow. It addresses the question of price "stickiness."
Answer: It assumes when one oligopolist raises the price, all others will follow
Explanation:
An oligopoly is a form of market where there are dominated by few group of large sellers.
A kinked demand curve simply happens when the elasticity is not thesame for the lower and higher prices and the demand curve isn't a straight line.
It simply suggests that there are rigid prices and assumes when one oligopolist raises the price, all others will follow.
SUV Company is considering producing a line of luxury SUVs. Currently, SUV Company sells 4,200 standard SUVs annually for $45,400 each. They expect that they would sell 5,600 luxury SUVs for $80,500. If SUV Company produces the line of luxury SUVs, then they expect to only sell 3,300 standard SUVs. What is the incremental revenue generated from the potential project
Answer:
SUV Company
The incremental revenue generated from the potential project is:
= $409,940,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Selling price of Standard SUVs = $45,400
Number of Standard SUVs sold annually = 4,200
Luxury SUVs' price per unit = $80,500
Number of Luxury SUVs expected to be sold = 5,600
Reduced number of Standard SUVs sold as a result = 3,300
Lost sales of Standard SUVs = 900 (4,200 - 3,300)
The incremental revenue generated from the potential project is:
Sale revenue from Luxury SUVs = $450,800,000 ($80,500 * 5,600)
Lost revenue from lost sale of
Standard SUVs = 40,860,000 ($45,400 * 900)
Incremental revenue generated = $409,940,000
b) The incremental revenue is the additional revenue generated from the introduction of the Luxury SUVs, excluding the lost revenue from the non-sale of Standard SUVs as a result of the introduction.

Dog Bone Bakery, which bakes dog treats, makes a special biscuit for dogs. Each biscuit uses 0.75 cup of pure semolina flour. They buy 4,000 cups of flour at $0.55 per cup. They use 3,588 cups of flour to make 4,800 biscuits. The standard cost per cup of flour is $0.54. A. What are the direct materials price variance, the direct materials quantity variances, and the total direct materials cost variance
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the direct material rate and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (0.55 - 0.54)*4,000
Direct material price variance= $40 favorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (0.75*4,800 - 3,588)*0.55
Direct material quantity variance= $6.6 favorable
Finally, the total variance:
Total direct material variance= 40 + 6.6= $46.6 favorable
Clinicke Inc. sells merchandise of $800,000 in 2020 that includes a two-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects as part of the selling price. Warranty costs are estimated to be 1% of sales. If the company incurred $2,200 of actual costs in responding to warranty claims in 2020 (related to 2020 sales), how much should Clinicke record in warranty expense for 2020
Answer:
the amount recorded in the warranty expense is $8,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount recorded in the warranty expense is shown below:
= Sale value of merchandise inventory × estimated percentage
= $800,000 × 1%
= $8,000
hence, the amount recorded in the warranty expense is $8,000
So the above formula should be applied
Emilia bought some Japanese sushi at the grocery store for $14. When she got it home and served it to her family, it tasted rancid. She brought the sushi back the next day and was given a full refund with no questions asked. Evidence indicates that successful handling of product and service failures as in Emilia's situation leads to _______.
Answer:
higher levels of customer loyalty.
Explanation:
CRM is an acronym for customer relationship management and it typically involves the process of combining strategies, techniques, practices and technology so as to effectively and efficiently manage their customer data in order to improve and enhance customer satisfaction. Therefore, this employees are saddled with the responsibility of ensuring the customer are satisfied and happy with their service at all times.
CRM means collecting information about the customer for the purpose of improving their future experience.
In this scenario, Emilia bought some Japanese sushi at the grocery store for $14. When she got it home and served it to her family, it tasted rancid. She brought the sushi back the next day and was given a full refund with no questions asked.
This evidence indicates that successful handling of product and service failures as in Emilia's situation leads to higher levels of customer loyalty and as such they would stick to patronizing the business firm or service provider.
This ultimately implies that, in order to gain loyalty from your customers, it is very important and necessary that you treat them right, listen to their complaints, and resolve any business related issue because customers are always right.
The local police department gives a detective test. Everyone who takes the test must have been a police officer for at least five years. The people taking the exam are rated from highest to lowest based on their test scores. If a detective position becomes available, it is filled on the basis of who has the highest score. What best describes this practice?
Answer:
Internal Recruitment/Selection, based on merit.
Explanation:
The local police department gives a Detective test and these are the features of that test;
1. The test is for persons who are already police officers.
This is called internal sourcing / internal recruitment. Instead of having fresh candidates, the police department picked up on employed police officers.
2. Everyone sitting for the test has been a police officer for at least 5 years.
This quality shows that everyone sitting for the test has experience on the job of policing. This also means that the test candidates will be familiar with terms on the test script.
3. The criterion for selection of best candidate is score.
This is a merit selection, hence if an officer of 15 years scores 65% and an officer of 5 years scores 80%, the officer of 5 years takes the vacant detective position.

Mountain High Ice Cream Company transferred $79,000 of accounts receivable to the Prudential Bank. The transfer was made without recourse. Prudential remits 90% of the factored amount to Mountain High and retains 10%. When the bank collects the receivables, it will remit to Mountain High the retained amount (which Mountain estimates has a fair value of $6,900) less a 3% fee (3% of the total factored amount).
Required:
Prepare the journal entry to record the transfer on the books of Mountain High assuming that the sale criteria are met.
Answer:
Debit Cash for $68,730; Debit Receivable from factor for $6,900; Debit Loss on sale of receivables for $3,370; and Credit Accounts receivable $79,000.
Explanation:
Factored amount = $79,000
Cash = Factored amount * (100% - Percentage of he factored amount retained - Rate of fee = $79,000 * (100% - 10% - 3%) = $68,730
Receivable from factor = $6,900
Loss on sale of receivables = Factored amount - Cash - Receivable from factor = $79,000 - $68,730 - $6,900 = $3,370
The journal entry will therefore look as follows:
Details Debit ($) Credit ($)
Cash 68,730
Receivable from factor 6,900
Loss on sale of receivables 3,370
Accounts receivable 79,000

Thomas Company has a sales budget for next month of $1,000,000. Cost of goods sold is expected to be 25 percent of sales. All goods are paid for in the month following purchase. The beginning inventory of merchandise is $50,000, and an ending inventory of $64,000 is desired. Beginning accounts payable is $160,000. For Thomas Company, the ending accounts payable should be:
Answer:
the ending account payable is $264,000
Explanation:
The computation of the ending account payable is shown below;
= Required material + ending inventory - beginning inventory
= ($1,000,000 × 25%) + $64,000 - $50,000
= $264,000
Hence, the ending account payable is $264,000
Basically applied the above formula to calculate the ending account payable
Jackson Company has two service departments (S1 and S2) and two producing departments (A and B). Department S1 serves Departments S2, A, and B in the following percentages, respectively: 15%, 25%, and 60%. Department S2 serves Departments S1, A, and B in the following percentages, respectively: 0%, 70%, and 30%. Direct department costs for S1, S2, A, and B are $200,000, $16,000, $210,000, and $185,000, respectively. If Jackson uses the step method of allocating service department costs beginning with Department S1, what is the total amount of cost that will be allocated from S2 to Department A?
Answer:
The total amount of cost that will be allocated from S2 to Department A is $32,200.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Cost allocated from Department S1 to Department S2 = Direct department costs of Department S1 * Percentage of service to Department S2 = $200,000 * 15% = $30,000
Total Direct department costs for S2 = Direct department costs for S2 + Cost allocated from Department S1 to Department S2 = $16,000 + $30,000 = $46,000
Cost allocated from Department S2 to Department SA = Total direct department costs for S2 * Percentage of service to Department A = $46,000 * 70% = $32,200
Therefore, the total amount of cost that will be allocated from S2 to Department A is $32,200.

Comcast (CMCSA) is trading at 54.33. You decide to short sell 100 shares of their stock, providing 2850 in collateral to your broker. You hold the short position for one year and expect Comcast to pay a dividend of 1 per share. In one year, the stock price is 56. Assuming the brokerage account pays no interest on your cash, what is your return, relative to your collateral
Answer: =-9.34%
Explanation:
Assuming the brokerage account pays no interest on your cash, the return, relative to the collateral will be calculated as:
= (Short sell price - dividend - Share buy price)/Capital employed
= (5433 - 100 - 5600) / 2850
= -267 / 2850
= -0.09368
=-9.34%
Note:
Short sell price = 54.33 × 100 = 5433
Dividend = 100
Share buy price = 56 × 100 = 5600

Explanation:
Signal mistakenly produced 1,075 defective cell phones. The phones cost $70 each to produce. A salvage company will buy the defective phones as they are for $39 each. It would cost Signal $82 per phone to rework the phones. If the phones are reworked, Signal could sell them for $146 each. Signal has excess capacity. Should Signal scrap or rework the phones
Answer: Rework the phones
Explanation:
The phones have already been produced so the cost price of $70 does not matter as it is a sunk cost.
The decision the company makes between scrap and reworking will depend on which option bring in more money.
Scrap = $39
Reworking:
= Price after reworking - Cost to rework
= 146 - 82
= $64
Incremental income of reworking over scrap:
= 1,075 * (64 - 39)
= $26,875
Signal makes an incremental income of $26,875 if they rework the phones so they should do that.

Answer:
Being debt-free within 15 years is an example of a long-term goal.
Explanation:
One main characteristic of a long-term goal is that it involves a planning horizon that is more than 5 years during which some thoughts are paid to the goal, and the means of achieving it are marshalled out, and rigorously pursued. Long-terms goals are best broken into manageable, short-term, and medium-term goals to enable the decision-maker to accomplish her goal. The future is always uncertain, to achieve a long-term goal you must remain motivated.
The Argentine peso was fixed through a currency board at Ps1.00/$ throughout the 1990s. In January 2002 the Argentine peso was floated. On January 29, 2003 it was trading at Ps3.20/$. During that one year period Argentina's inflation rate was 20% on an annualized basis. Inflation in the United States during that same period was 2.2% annualized.
Required:
a. What should have been the exchange rate in January 2003 if PPP held?
b. By what percentage was the Argentine peso undervalued on an annualized basis?
c. What were the probable causes of undervaluation?
Answer:
1. 1.17416 peso/$
2. -63.30%
Explanation:
1. The exchange rate in January if PPP is held
1.00 = exchange rate
20 % = inflation in Argentina
0.22% = us inflation
1.00(1+0.20)/(1+0.022)
= 1.00x1.20/1.022
= 1.17416 pesos/$
B. Percentage by which pesos was devalued
(PPP/actual exchange rate)-1
= 1.17416/3.20 -1
= 0.366925-1
= -0.6330
= -63.30%
C. At 20 % we can see that inflation is really high in Argentina which is probably the reason for the undervaluation. But the truth is inflation alone cannot be held responsible. Severe crisis in Argentinas balance of payment is partly responsible
Richland Company has a calendar year reporting period. On July 1, 2020, Richland’s equipment, with an original cost of $29,000, was sold to Quaker Corporation for $15,000.

Accumulated depreciation ($10,000 + $2,000) $12,000
Loss on disposal - Plant assets $2,000
To equipment $29,000
(Being the sale of the equipment is recorded)
here the cash, accumulated depreciation and loss would be debited as it increased the assets and losses while on the other hand the equipment is credited as it decreased the assets
