Chiasso Co. reported a retained earnings balance of $200,000 at December 31, 2020. In September 2021, Chiasso determined that insurance premiums of $30,000 for the three-year period beginning January 1, 2020, had been paid and fully expensed in 2020. Chiasso has a 25% income tax rate. What amount should C report as adjusted beginning retained earnings in its 2021 statement of retained earnings?
Answer:
$215,000
Explanation:
Retained Earning is an equity account and its balance is credit in nature. It is the accumulated balance of all the prior year's income / losses after paying all the dividend. This balance can be used for the dividend payment or reinvestment in the business.
Any prior years adjustment in the revenue and expense will be recorded in the retained earning because it carry the accumulated profit all the prior years.
The premium on insurance for only one year should be recorded, but premium of 3 years is expense in 2020, from which there is an advance premium of 2 years.
Adjustment Value = $30,000 x 2/3 x (1-0.25) = $15,000
The adjustment should be added in the retained earning balance as it was expensed earlier.
Adjusted retained earning balance = $200,000 + $15,000 = $215,000

Answer:
The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period is $29,580
Explanation:
In order to calculate The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period we would have to calculate first the Overhead allocated to Maintenance from Payroll department as follows:
Overhead allocated=Payroll overhead×(Maintenance payroll personnel/Total personnel)
Overhead allocated=$ 20,400×(15/15+15+45)
Overhead allocated=$4,080
Therefore, to calculate the The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period we would have to use the following formula:
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=Overhead allocated+Direct overhead incurred
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=$4,080+$25,500
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=$29,580
The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period is $29,580
Suppose Mr. Lane just bought a share of BlueWind Co., a renewable energy startup. BlueWind promises to pay Mr. Lane $18 in dividends for one year and then the firm will shut down. Suppose that the liquidation value of the share is $3, and the rate of time preference is 5%. Then, according to the single-period dividend discount model, the present value of the cash payment received by Mr. Lane in one year would be
Answer:
The present value of the cash payment is $20
Explanation:
The present value of cash payment receivable by Mr Lane in one year's time is the today's equivalent amount of the dividend of $18 as well as the liquidation value of $3.
The present value is the total cash inflows multiplied by the discount factor
discount factor=1/(1+r)^n
where is the rate of time preference of 5%'
n is 1 i.e in one year's time
total cash inflows=$18+$3=$21
discount factor =1/(1+5%)^1=0.95238
present value of cash payment=0.95238*$21=$20
Zolezzi Inc. is preparing its cash budget for March. The budgeted beginning cash balance is $27,000. Budgeted cash receipts total $104,000 and budgeted cash disbursements total $87,000. The desired ending cash balance is $70,000. The company can borrow up to $90,000 at any time from a local bank, with interest not due until the following month. Required: Prepare the company's cash budget for March in good form. Make sure to indicate what borrowing, if any, would be needed to attain the desired ending cash balance.
Answer:
Zolezzi Inc.
Cash budget for March
Amount in $'000
Opening balance 27
Add;
Cash receipts 104
Less;
Cash disbursements (87)
Ending balance 44
Amount to be borrowed 26
Desired ending balance 70
Explanation:
The cash budget a forecast of the expected movement in cash balance. This is as a result of expected cash receipts and disbursements and may be expressed mathematically as
opening cash balance + cash receipts - Cash disbursed = closing cash balance
27 + 104 - 87 = ending balance
Ending balance = 44
Desired ending balance = 70
Amount to be borrowed = 70 - 44
= 26
Financial Crisis
Suppose that banks are less able to raise funds and so lend less. Consequently, because people and households are less able to borrow, they spend less at any given price level than they would otherwise. The crisis is persistent so lending should remain depressed for some time. Refer to Financial Crisis. In the long run, if the Fed does not respond, the change in price expectations created by the crisis shifts:
a. short-run aggregate supply right.
b. aggregate demand right.
c. aggregate demand left.
d. short-run aggregate supply left.
Answer:
The correct answer to the given question is “D – Short-Run Aggregate Supply Left”
Explanation:
While the problem is there for offering and deriving, less asset is being completed on the budget. Thus due to the lack of capital. The investment standard growing will decrease and therefore as an outcome, short run cumulative source curve will move to the left.
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
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
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.
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
Exercise 24-5 Payback period computation; even cash flows LO P1 Compute the payback period for each of these two separate investments: A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $520,000 and have a useful life of six years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $150,000 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $10,000. A machine costs $380,000, has a $20,000 salvage value, is expected to last eight years, and will generate an after-tax income of $60,000 per year after straight-line depreciation.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the payback period is shown below:
1. Payback period = Initial investment ÷ Net cash flow
where,
Initial investment is $520,000
Net cash flow is = incremental after-tax income + depreciation expense
= $150,000 + $85,000
= $235,000
The depreciation expense is
= ($520,000 - $10,000) ÷ (6 years)
= $85,000
Now the payback period is
= $520,000 ÷ $235,000
= 2.21 years
2. Payback period = Initial investment ÷ Net cash flow
where,
Initial investment is $380,000
Net cash flow is = incremental after-tax income + depreciation expense
= $60,000 + $45,000
= $105,000
The depreciation expense is
= ($380,000 - $20,000) ÷ (8 years)
= $45,000
Now the payback period is
= $380,000 ÷ $105,000
= 3.62 years

Therefore, QBI deduction for 2019 is $148,000
A company determined that the budgeted cost of producing a product is $30 per unit. On June 1, there were 86000 units on hand, the sales department budgeted sales of 370000 units in June, and the company desires to have 160000 units on hand on June 30. 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
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
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).

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.
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

Answer:
$1,042,500.
Explanation:
From the question above, we are given the following parameters; under the bid, we have $1.42 = €1.00 and $1.48 = €1.00; the borrowing and lending are $ 4.25% and 4% APR respectively for S0($/€).
Also, for F360($/€), the bid and ask values are: $1.48 = €1.00 and $1.50 = €1.00 respectively; the borrowing and lending values are 3.10% APR and 3% APR.
Therefore, the Borrowing rate is ($) 4.25% in $ . Thus, $1,000,000 for one year, one we owe
$1,000,000 × (1 + 0.0425) = $1,042,500 at maturity.

Answer:
Explanation:
Lerner Index = -1 / Elasticity of demand = (P - MC) / P
(1) Canada:
- 1 / Ec = (21.4 - 1.20) / 21.4
- 1 / Ec = 20.2 / 21.4
- 1 / Ec = 0.9344
Ec = -1 / 0.9344
Ec = - 1.059
(2) Japan:
Lerner Index = -1 / Elasticity of demand = (P - MC) / P
- 1 / Ej = (32 - 1.2) / 32
- 1 / Ej = 30.8 / 32
- 1 / Ej = 0.9625
Ej = -1 / 0.9625
Ej = - 1.039

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.
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
