Wildhorse Co. is a full-service manufacturer of surveillance equipment. Customers can purchase any combination of equipment, installation services, and training as part of Wildhorse’s security services. Thus, each of these performance obligations are separate with individual standalone selling prices. Laplante Inc. purchased cameras, installation, and training at a total price of $88,100. Estimated standalone selling prices of the equipment, installation, and training are $81,000, $6,300, and $2,700, respectively. How should the transaction price be allocated to the equipment, installation, and training?
WeAnswer:
Equipment $79,290
Installation $6,167
Training $2,643
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How should the transaction price be allocated to the equipment, installation, and training
First step is to calculate the total estimated fair value
Total estimated fair value = $81,000+$6,300+$2,700
Total estimated fair value =$90,000
Now let calculate How should the transaction price be allocated
Equipment= ($81,000 ÷ $90,000)*$88,100
Equipment= 90%*$88,100
Equipment=$79,290
Installation=($6,300 ÷ $90,000)* $88,100
Installation= 7%*$88,100
Installation=$6,167
Training=($2,700 ÷ $90,000)*$88,100
Training= 3%*$88,100
Training=$2,643
TOTAL
Equipment=$81,000
Installation=$6,300
Training=$2,700
Total $90,000
Equipment=$79,290
Installation=$6,167
Training=$2,643
Total $88,100
Equipment=90%
Installation=7%
Training=3%
Total 100%
Therefore the transaction price that should be allocated to the equipment, installation, and training are :
Equipment $79,290
Installation $6,167
Training $2,643

Job specialization can be defined as a strategic process which typically involves the ability of employees working in an organization to develop specific skills, knowledge, great expertise or professionalism and experience to perform their duties, tasks or job functions effectively and efficiently.
In order to gain the requisite skills, expertise and knowledge for job specialization, it is very important for the employees to have undergone an extensive training and a good number of years in work experience.
The primary purpose of job specialization is to increase efficiency and productivity because the employees are able to specialize in the use of specific tools (equipments) to accomplish their tasks, as well as limit the level of error or mistakes in the production process.
In Business management, method analysis can be defined as the study of the detailed process for the performance of a job i.e how a job is done. Thus, method analysis gives a detailed report on the tasks involved in the performance of a job and how they are to be done.
Basically, methods analysis is particularly valuable when it is used on jobs that:
1. Are high in labor content.
2. Are done frequently.
3. Are unsafe, tiring, unpleasant, and/or noisy.
On December 30, 2017, the Board of Directors of Blue Manufacturing, Inc. committed to a plan to discontinue the operations of its Owl division. Blue estimated that Owl's 2018 operating loss would be $750,000 and that the fair value of Owl's facilities was $450,000 less than their carrying amounts. The estimate for the 2018 operating loss turned out to be correct. Owl's 2017 operating loss was $1,000,000, and the division was actually sold for $400,000 less than its carrying amount in 2018. Blue's effective tax rate is 35%. In its 2017 income statement, what amount should Blue report as loss from discontinued operations
Answer:
$942,500
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what amount should Blue report as loss from discontinued operations
Using this formula
Loss from discontinued operations=[(Operating loss+Fair value)*Tax rate]
Let plug in the formula
Loss from discontinued operations=[($1,000,000+ $450,000)* (100% - 35% tax rate)]
Loss from discontinued operations=$1,450,0000*65%
Loss from discontinued operations= $942,500
Therefore what amount should Blue report as loss from discontinued operations is $942,500

small accounting firm is considering the purchase of a computer software package that would greatly reduce the amount of time needed to prepare tax forms. The software costs $2150 and this expense will be incurred immediately. The firm estimates that it will save $650 of cash flow at the end of each year beginning in one year for 5 consecutive years, and also save $1788 in year 6. What is the payback on the computer package
Answer:
Pay back period =3 years 4 months
Explanation:
The payback period is the estimated length of time it takes cash inflow from a project to recoup the cash outflow.
The payback period uses cash flows and not profit.
The payback period can be determined by accumulation the cash inflow consecutively to ascertain the length of time it will take the sum to equate the initial cost.
This will be done as follows:
The sum of the cash in flows for the first three years would equal
650× 3= 1,950
The balance required to equate 2,150 would be
balance = 2150-1950 = 200
Pay back period = 3 years + (200/650)× 12 months
= 3 years 3.6months
Pay back period =3 years 4 months

0n the basis of the behavior of the firm's stock, you believe that the beta of the firm is 1.30. Assuming that the rate of return available on risk-free investments is 5% and that the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 15% what is the net present value of the project
Answer:
NPV= -$32.58
Explanation:
The net present value of the investment is the cash inflow from the investment discounted at required rate of return. The required rate of return can be determined using the the formula below:
Ke= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)
Ke =? , Rf- 5%,, Rm-15%, β- 1.30
Ke=5% + 1.30× (15-5)= 18%
The NPV = Present value of cash inflow - initial cost
= A×(1-(1+r)^(-10)/r - initial cost
A- 15, r-18%
NPV = 15× (1-1.18^(-10)/0.18 - 100= -32.58
NPV = -$32.58
The Sheridan Acres Inn is trying to determine its break-even point during its off-peak season. The inn has 50 rooms that it rents at $36 a night. Operating costs are as follows:
Salaries $4,000 per month
Utilities $1,500 per month
Depreciation $1,300 per month
Maintenance $832 per month
Maid service $6 per room
Other costs $12 per room
Required:
a. Determine the inn's break-even point in number of rented rooms per month.
b. Determine the inn's break-even point in dollars.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost and the fixed costs:
Unitary variable cost= 6 + 12= $18
Total fixed costs= 4,000 + 1,500 + 1,300 + 832
Total fixed costs= $7,632
Now, to calculate the break-even point both in units and dollars, we need to use the following formulas:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 7,632 / (36 - 18)
Break-even point in units= 424 per month
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 7,632 / (18/36)
Break-even point (dollars)= $15,264

Jack and Jill are the only two residents in a neighbourhood, and they would like to hire a security guard. The value of a security guard is $50 per month to Jack and $90 per month to Jill. Irrespective of who pays the guard, the guard will protect the entire neighbourhood and charge $120 per month for the service. Suppose Jack earns $4,000 per month and Jill earns $8,000 per month.
a. With a proportional tax of 1 percent on income, how much would Jack and Jill pay, and would it be enough to pay for the security guard?
Jack would pay $ _____.
Jill would pay $ _____.
This tax _____ be enough to pay for the security guard.
b. Suppose instead that Jack proposes a payment scheme under which Jack and Jill would each receive the same net benefit from hiring the guard. How much would Jack and Jill pay now?
Jack would pay $ _____.
Jill would pay $ _____.
Would both Jack and Jill vote for this scheme? _____
Answer:
Jack and Jill
a. With a proportional tax of 1 percent on income, it would be enough to pay for the security guard $120.
Jack would pay $ __40___.
Jill would pay $ __80___.
This tax _will____ be enough to pay for the security guard.
b. Based on net benefit from the guard:
Jack would pay $ __43___.
Jill would pay $ _ 77____.
Would both Jack and Jill vote for this scheme? __No___ Jack will feel cheated by Jill in the sum of $3. Jack will likely prefer the 1% based on income.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Value of a security guard for Jack = $50 per month
Value of a security guard for Jill = $90 per month
Total value of a security guard for both Jack and Jill = $140 ($50 + $90)
Cost of hiring a guard = $120 per month
Jack's monthly earnings = $4,000
Jill's monthly earnings = $8,000
Total monthly earnings for both Jack and Jill = $12,000
a. Proportional tax of 1 percent on income = $120 ($12,000 * 1%)
Jack will pay $4,000 * 1% = $40
Jill will pay $8,000 * 1% = $80
Total = $120
b. Net benefit scheme:
Jack will pay $50/$140 * $120 = $43
Jill will pay $90/$140 * $120 = $77
Total = $120

The most important consequence of credit constraints on individuals is difficulty in obtaining gainful employment. an ability to retire at an earlier age. lower interest rates on bank loans. an inability to smooth consumption.
Answer:
Banking regulations Lower interest rates on bank loans.Explanation:
Being credit constrained means that one is unable to borrow because the lenders do not think the individual is capable of paying back.
A person's credit history, savings level and collateral are all very useful in determining if they have the ability to pay back debt. Banking regulations do not directly lead to a credit constraint.
Lower interests on bank loans is only given to more creditworthy entities whom the bank feels will be able to pay back. A credit constrained person is risky and will therefore draw a higher rate from banks to balance that risk.
Credit constraints mean the inability of a person to borrow money from the market. the banking regulations and lower interest rates are the exceptions for persons credit-constrained.
What is credit constrained?It is the inability of a borrower to borrow more money from the lender because, in the opinion of the lender, the borrower does not have the creditworthiness that he/she would pay the debt in time.

Harry was on the phone negotiating the terms of a contract for the purchase of ball caps containing his university's logo with All Logos, LLC. They had agreed on the quantity (1200) and price ($2/cap), but could not agree on the delivery date, so Harry hung up. A few days later, Harry received an invoice in the mail, billing him for the caps, and advising that they would be shipped in 30 days' time. Under the UCC, has a contract been formed?
Answer: d. No, a contract has not been formed, since Harry has not signed a contract for the goods.
Explanation:
The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) utilizes the Statute of Frauds which states that contracts for goods worth over $500 in value are to be signed for them to be valid.
The goods here are worth:
= 1,200 * 2
= $2,400
This contract is well worth over the $500 required for the contract to be signed which means that as Harry did not sign the contract, there is no contract.

Buyer A, who is willing to pay $480,000 for the land now, or Buyer B, who is willing to make 20 annual payments of $75,000 each, with the first payment to be made 5 years from today. Assuming that the appropraite rate of interest is 9%, wo whom should Carey sell the land. Show calculations.
Answer:
Carey should accept buyer A's offer
Explanation:
we need to compare the present values of both proposals:
Present value of proposal A = $480,000
Present value of proposal B:
present value of annuity in 5 years = $75,000 x 9.1285 (PVIFA, 9%, 20 periods) = $684,637.50
present value (today) = $684,637.50 / (1 + 9%)⁵ = $444,967.40
You just decided to begin saving for retirement. You will make deposits of $1,000 per month into a retirement account that earns 8.00% p.a. The first deposit is made today and the last deposit will be made when you retire exactly 30 years from today. (Note: you make 361 total monthly deposits into your retirement account.) You will begin to make withdrawals from the account the first month after you retire. If you plan to live an additional 25 years and leave $900,000 to your heirs, you will be able to withdraw $_____ each month. (Note: you make 300 total monthly withdrawals from your retirement account.)
Answer:
Monthly withdraw= $4,752.01
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Monthly deposit= $1,000
Number of perios= 361 months
Interest rate= 0.08/12= 0.0067
First, we need to calculate the Future Value at the moment of retirement:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
FV= {1,000*[(1.0067^361) - 1]} / 0.0067
FV= $1,513,584.37
Now, we can calculate the monthly withdraw:
PV= 1,513,584.37 - 900,000= $613,584.27
Monthly withdraw= (FV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]
Monthly withdraw= (613,584.37*0.0067) / [1 - (1.0067^-300)]
Monthly withdraw= $4,752.01

Diamond Company has three product lines, A, B, and C. The following financial information is available:
Item Product Line A Product Line B Product Line C
Sales $70,000 $145,000 $32,000
Variable costs $42,000 $77,000 $20,000
Contribution margin $28,000 $68,000 $12,000
Fixed costs:
Avoidable $6,300 $19,000 $8,950
Unavoidable $5,000 $14,500 $4,000
Pre-tax operating
income $16,700 $34,500 $(-950 )
Assuming that Product Line C is discontinued and the manufacturing space formerly devoted to this line is rented for $6,000 per year, operating income for the company will likely:
a. Increase by $7,200.
b. Increase by $3,300.
c. Increase by some other amount.
,Answer:
See below
Explanation:
A B C
Sales revenue
$70,000 $145,000 $32,000
Variable costs
($42,000) ($77,000) ($20,000)
Contribution margin
$28,000 $68,000 $12,000
Fixed costs
Operating income loss
The total operating income is
= $16,700 + $34,500 + ($950)
= $50,250
Should the fixed cost of C be eliminated, the operating income/(loss) of C
= $6,000 - $950
= $5,050
This is the net increase in the total operating income
