Answers

Answer:

$286,100

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the correct inventory amount on December 31.

Using this formula

Correct Inventory amount=Ending Inventory+ Goods received shipping points + Goods shipped FOB destination-Goods received FOB destination

Let plug in the formula

Correct Inventory amount=$253,450+$25,690+$53,020-$46,060

Correct Inventory amount=$286,100

Therefore the correct inventory amount on December 31 is $286,100

Bellevue Company has 26,000 units of inventory on hand at December 31. It sold 1,950 units which are in transit and were shipped FOB destination. Bellevue purchased 3,250 units which were shipped FOB shipping point by the seller and are still in transit. What is the total amount of inventory to which Bellevue has legal title at December 31

Answers

Answer:

24050

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the total amount of inventory to which Bellevue has legal title at December 31

Using this formula

Inventory=Inventory on hand at December 31- Units in Transit

Let plug in the formula

Inventory=26,000 units- 1,950 units

Inventory=24050

Therefore the total amount of inventory to which Bellevue has legal title at December 31 is 24050

Answers

Answer:

b. $(2,767).

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below:

= Present cash flows - initial investment

= ($11,600 × 3.0373) - $38,000

= $35,232.68 - $38,000

= -$2,767.32

= -$2,767

Hence, the option b is correct

We simply applied the above formula to determine the net present value

The Molding Department of Boswell Company has the following production data: beginning work process 40,000 units (60% complete), started into production 730,000 units, completed and transferred out 690,000 units, and ending work in process 80,000 units (40% complete). Assuming conversion costs are incurred uniformly during the process, the equivalent units for conversion costs are:

Answers

Answer: 770,000 units

Explanation:

The Equivalent units for Conversion cost is calculated as:

= Total units completed and transferred out + Equivalent units of closing work in process

As the conversion costs were incurred uniformly during the process, the entire closing work in process would have already incurred conversion cost. Conversion cost closing equivalent units are therefore 80,000 units.

Equivalent units for Conversion cost = 690,000 + 80,000

= 770,000 units

Answers

Answer:

Barraza Corporation

The equivalent units of production for these two materials will be equal when:

C. when processing on ending work in process is over 50% complete.

Explanation:

The reason for this option is that one of the two materials is added at the beginning of the production process, and the other is added when processing has reached 50% completion.  Therefore, their equivalent units will become equal when processing on ending work in process is over 50% complete.  By that time, 100% of each material would have been added.

Giannitti Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on the estimated machine-hours for the upcoming year. Data for the upcoming year appear below:
Estimated machine-hours 72,900
Estimated variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.50 per machine-hour
Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead 838,710
The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to:________.
A. $6.66 per machine-hour
B. $10.50 per machine-hour
C. $8.69 per machine-hour
D. $15.00 per machine-hour

Answers

Answer:

D. $15.00 per machine hour

Explanation:

The computation of the predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year is seen below;

First, we will calculate the fixed overhead rate.

Fixed overhead rate = Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead / Estimated machine - hours

Fixed overhead rate = $838,710 / 72,900

Fixed overhead rate = $11.50

Then,

Predetermined overhead rate = Fixed overhead rate + Variable overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate = $11.50 + $3.50

Predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to $15.00 per machine hour

Click here to view Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using the tables provided. The net present value of the proposed project is closest to (Ignore income taxes.):

Answers

Answer:

the  net present value is -$72,050

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below

= $50,000  per year ×PVIFA factor at 10 years for 9% - $360,000

= $50,000 ×5.7590  - $360,000

= $287,950 - $360,000

= -$72,050

hence, the  net present value is -$72,050

So the same should be relevant and considered too

Answers

Answer:

a. In this weak situation, Frank’s laziness trait is activated. In this strong situation, Daniel’s neurotic trait is activated.

Explanation:

A trait can be defined as the characteristics of a person that describes his nature and his behavior. It is the result of one's genes or are influence from surrounding or nature.

A neurotic trait of a person helps the person to deal with the stress. It is a tendency towards shyness, anxiety, etc.

In the context, it is given that both Frank and Daniel volunteered themselves for cleaning a district warehouse. They were assigned the northwest corner of the warehouse to clean. Daniel found a push-broom and started sweeping and cleaning the floor, while Frank waited for Trixie to arrive who will assigned them their job.

In this situation, it shows the laziness trait of Frank who felt too lazy to start his work before someone assigning them to him while Daniel is active and it shows his neurotic trait because of which Daniel started his job and did not waited for Trixie to come.

Thus the correct option is (a).

Dan purchases a 1000 par value 10-year bond with 9% semiannual couponsfor 925. He is able to reinvest his coupon payments at a nominal rate of 7%convertible semiannually.Calculate his nom

Answers

Answer:

9.2%

Explanation:

Missing word "Calculate his nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually over the ten-year period"

Semi annual coupon payments = 9% / 2 = 4.5%

Par value = 4.5% * 1,000 = $45

interest rate per period = r = 7% / 2 = 3.5%

Number of periods, n = 2 x 10 = 20

FV of all the coupons reinvested = 45 / r * [(1 + r)^n - 1]

FV of all the coupons reinvested = 45 / 3.5% * [(1 + 3.5%)^20 - 1]

FV of all the coupons reinvested = $1,272.59

Receipt of par value at the end of the 10 years = par value = 1,000

Total accumulated value at the end of 10 years =  $1,272.59 + 1,000

Total accumulated value at the end of 10 years = $2,272.59

Invested amount = $925

i = nominal interest convertible semi annually.

$925 * (1 + i / 2)^n = 2,272.59  

925 * (1 + i / 2)^20 = 2,272.59

i = 2 * [(2,272.59 / 925)^1/20 - 1]

I = 9.19%

I = 9.2%

So, his nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually over the ten-year period is 9.2%

The North Division of XYZ Corporation had average operating assets of $1,110,000 and net operating income of $295,200 in January. The company uses residual income to evaluate the performance of its divisions, with a minimum required rate of return of 20%.
Required:
What was the North Division's residual income in January?

Answers

Answer:

$73,200

Explanation:

From the above details, we know that;

Residual income =

[Net operating income - (Average operating assets × minimum rate of return)]

= [$295,200 - ($1,110,000 × 20%)]

= [$295,200 - $222,000]

= $73,200

Therefore, the North division's residual income in January is $73,200
