Calculate the net realizable value of accounts receivable.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Please see answer in the explanation column

Explanation:

Account receivables = Total account - cash collections

                                         $126,000 -- $93,000

                                  = $33,000

Uncollectible Accounts = 20% x 33,000 = $6,600

a) Journal to record the adjustment for uncollectible accounts

Date                  Account                       Debit                Credit

Dec 31, 2018   Bad debts expense   $6,600  

Allowance for uncollectible accounts                          $6,600

B) net realizable value of accounts receivable= Total Accounts Receivable - Allowance for uncollectible accounts

= $33,000 - $6,600= $26400

B) Prepaid insurance 875 Insurance expense 875
C) Insurance expense 875
Prepaid insurance 3,325
Insurance payable 4,200
D) Prepaid insurance 3,325
Insurance expense 3,325

Answers

Answer:

D) Prepaid insurance 3,325

Insurance expense 3,325

Explanation:

insurance cost per month = $4,200 / 24 months = $175 per month

August, September, October, November and December = 5 months = $875

$4,200 - $875 = $3,325

The correct journal entries should have been:

August 1, 2003, purchased 2 year insurance policy

Dr Prepaid insurance 4,200

    Cr Cash 4,200

December 31, 2003, accrued insurance expense

Dr Insurance expense 875

    Cr Prepaid insurance 875

But, since the purchase was incorrectly journalized as:

Dr Insurance expense 4,200

    Cr Cash 4,200

the adjusting entry must be:

Dr Prepaid insurance 3,325

    Cr insurance expense 3,325

Rank the following investments from lowest to highest, for overall historical returns experienced by investors over long periods of time:

a. Treasury Bills
b. AAA Rated Corporate Bonds
c. Common Stocks

Answers

Answer:

Treasury BillsAAA Rated Corporate BondsCommon Stocks

Explanation:

Treasury Bills are considered risk-less investments. As a result the interest rate will not be adjusted for risk and will be relatively low compared to other securities. It will give the lowest return overtime here.

AAA Rated Corporate Bonds are the highest rated Corporate bonds there are. Even still, they will pay an interest rate that has a little risk premium in it which will make its returns overtime higher than a T-bill.

Common Stocks will provide the highest rate of return overtime on average simply because as well as the dividend payments that are paid to holders, the stock also has a chance of rising in value overtime which will give the holder a Capital gain as well. Something that the other 2 investments cannot give.

The preferred stock is convertible into 40,000 shares of common stock. During 2015, Gilley paid dividends of $.90 per share on the common stock and $3.00 per share on the preferred stock. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 45 shares of common stock. The net income for 2015 was $600,000 and the income tax rate was 30%.

Diluted earnings per share for 2015 is:_____________ (rounded to the nearest penny)

Answers

Answer:

Gilley Co.

Diluted earnings per share for 2015 is:_____________ $1.68

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of common stock shares = 200,000

Number of convertible preferred = 40,000

Number of convertible bonds = 45,000 ($1,000,000/$1,000 x 45)

Total shares = 285,000

Earnings = $600,000

Income tax  (180,000)

Net Income $420,000

Plus preferred dividend = $60,000

Adjusted net income = $480,000

EPS = $480,000/285,000

= $1.68

b) After deducting income tax expense to arrive at the income after tax, then add the dividends of preferred stockholders before arriving at the adjusted net income for computing the earnings per share.

There are many benefits as well as risks to social networks. The greatest benefit is that they allow us to connect with individuals from anywhere in the world, at any distance, and in a seconds notice. This is incredibly powerful and opens the door for many opportunities in all types of markets. Social networks also come with risks, since everyone is on it people tend to share all of their information which can cause problems for that individual if it falls into the wrong hands. For example, an individual connects with a family member who lives in Brasil and has casual conversations with that family member every other day. A hacker may be able to access that information and extract all the valuable information needed to steal that individual's identity.

A. $1,370,925.78 B. $1,250,000.00 C. $1,123,221.12 D. $908,153.55

Answers

Answer:

Maximum price = $ 1,325,000  

Explanation:

The maximum price to be paid for the company is the present value of the annual profit discounted at the rate of return on equity.

The return on equity can be calculated using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM)

Under CAPM,

E(r)= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)

E(r)- expected return, Rf-risk-free rate , β= Beta, Rm= Return on market.

Using this model, we can work out the value of beta as follows:

Ke= ?., Rf- 2%, Rm-Rf - 8%

Ke- 2% + 1.5× (8%)= 14 %

Price for the company can now be determined using the present value of the perpetuity formula with growth as follows:

The model is represented below:  

P = A ×(1+g)/ ke- g  

DATA

A- 100,000

g- 6%

ke- 14%

Price =  100,000× (1.06)/(0.14-0.06)= $ 1,325,000  

Maximum price = $ 1,325,000  

Torrid Romance Publishers has total receivables of $3,000, which represents 20 days’ sales. Total assets are $75,000. The firm’s operating profit margin is 5%. Find the firm's ROA and asset turnover ratio.

Answers

Answer:

Assets turnover ratio= 0.73

ROA= 3.65%

Explanation:

Torrid romance publishers have a total receivables of $3,000, it represents a 20 days sales

The total assets is $75,000

The operating profit margin is 5%

= 5/100

= 0.05

The first step is to calculate the total sales

= $3,000×365/20

= $3,000×18.25

= $54,750

The asset turnover ratio can be calculated as follows

= Total sales/Total assets

= $54,750/$75,000

= 0.73

The ROA can be calculated as follows

= Assets turnover ratio×operating profit margin

= 0.73×0.05

= 0.0365×100

= 3.65%

Hence the assets turnover ratio and ROA is 0.73 and 3.65% respectively.

Bluegill Company sells 7,500 units at $320 per unit. Fixed costs are $120,000 and income from operations is $1,560,000. Determine the following: Round the contribution margin ratio to two decimal places.
a. Variable cost per unit $
b. Unit contribution margin $ per unit
c. Contribution margin ratio %

Answers

Answer:

a) $96 per unit

b) $224 per unit

c) 70%

Explanation:

We will have to compute variable cost and contribution margin

Sales $2,400,000

7,500 × 320

Less; Variable cost $720,000

Contribution margin $1,680,000

Less : Fixed cost $120,000

Operating income. $1,560,000

a) Variable cost per unit

= Total variable cost ÷ Total number of units

= $720,000 ÷ 7,500 units

= $96 per unit

b) Unit contribution margin

= Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $320 - $96

= $224

c) Contribution margin ratio

= (Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit) ÷ Selling price per unit × 100

= ($320 - $96) ÷ $320 × 100

= $224 ÷ 320 × 100

= 70%

An investor purchases a 15-year, $1,000 par value bond that pays semiannual interest of $50. If the semiannual market rate of interest is 6%, what is the current market value of the bond

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $862.35

Explanation:

Explanation:

This is a semiannual paying coupon, meaning interest are paid twice in year.

N(Number of periods) = 30periods ( 15 years x 2)

I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 6 percent

PV(present value or market price) = ?

PMT( coupon payment) = $50

FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.

We are using a Financial calculator for this.

N= 30; I/Y = 6; PMT = 50; FV= $1,000; CPT PV= -862.35

Therefore, the market price of the bond is $862.35.

Computing absorption cost per unit and variable cost per unit Adamson, Inc. has the following cost data for Product X:

Direct materials $41 per unit
Direct labor 57 per unit
Variable manufacturing overhead 7 per unit
Fixed manufacturing overhead 20,000 per year

Required:
Calculate the unit product cost using absorption costing and variable costing when production is 2,000 units, 2,500 units, and 5,000 units.

Answers

Answer:

unit cost for 2,000 units=$115

unit cost for 2,500 units =$113

unit cost for 5,000 units= $109

Explanation:

Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e.g machine hours, labour hours e.t.c. Units are valued using full cost per unit

Full cost per unit= Direct material cost + direct labor cost  + Variable production overhead + Fixed production overhead

Fixed production overhead = Budgeted overhead/Budgeted production units

unit cost for 2,000 units

unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/2000) = $115

unit cost for 2,500 units

unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/2,500)= $113

unit cost for 5,000 units

unit cost = 41 + 57 + 7 + (20,000/5,000) = $109

unit cost for 2,000 units=$115

unit cost for 2,500 units =$113

unit cost for 5,000 units= $109
