Piedmont Company segments its business into two regions - North and South.
The company prepared the contribution format segmented income statement shown below:
Total Company North South
Sales $800,000 $600,000 $200,000
Variable expenses 560,000 480,000 80,000
Contribution margin 240,000 120,000 120,000
Traceable fixed expenses 122,000 61,000 61,000
Segment margin $118,000 $59,000 $59,000
Common fixed expenses 52,000
Net operating income $66,000
Required:
1. Compute the company-wide break-even point in dollar sales.
2. Compute the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region.
3. Compute the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.
Answer:
1. Company-wide break-even point in dollar sales:
Break even point in dollar sales = (Traceable fixed expenses + Common fixed expenses) / Contribution margin %
Contribution margin % = Contribution margin / Sales revenue * 100%
= 240,000 / 800,000 * 100%
= 30%
Break even point in dollar sales :
= (122,000 + 52,000) / 30%
= $580,000
2. Break-even point in dollar sales for the North region.
Break even point in dollar sales = Traceable fixed costs / Contribution margin %
Contribution margin % = Contribution margin / Sales revenue * 100%
= 120,000 / 600,000 * 100%
= 20%
Break even point in dollar sales :
= 61,000 / 20%
= $305,000
3. Break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.
Break even point in dollar sales = Traceable fixed costs / Contribution margin %
Contribution margin % = Contribution margin / Sales revenue * 100%
= 120,000 / 200,000 * 100%
= 60%
Break even point in dollar sales :
= 61,000 / 60%
= $101,666.67

XYZ Corporation produces and sells 10,000 units of Product X each month. The selling price is $40 per unit, and variable expenses are $32 per unit. A study has been made concerning whether Product X should be discontinued. The study shows that $70,000 of the $120,000 in monthly fixed expenses charged to Product X would not be avoidable even if the product was discontinued. If Product X is discontinued, the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company of eliminating this product should be: Group of answer choices
Answer:
If the company discontinues Product X, income will decrease by $30,000.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales= 10,000*40= $400,000
Total variable expense= 32*10,000= 320,000
Avoidable fixed costs= $50,0000
To calculate the effect on the income of discontinuing Product X, we need to use the following formula:
Effect on income= avoidable fixed cost - total contribution margin
Effect on income= 50,000 - (400,000 - 320,000)
Effect on income= $30,000 decrease
If the company discontinues Product X, income will decrease by $30,000.
Suppose the black market shrinks because firms shift to the formal sector, but production remains the same. GDP
Answer: will increase but this will not affect living standards
Explanation:
GDP is sometimes called an incomplete measure because there are certain measures that it does not include such as the black market.
If firms in the black market shift to the formal sector, they will now be included in GDP which means that GDP will increase.
The living standards of people in the country will probably not change however because the firms involved were simply shifting sectors and are not said to be more or less prosperous as a result. Assuming they remained the same, nothing changes for living standards.
What is the value of Company X stock if the dividend next year will be $3 and is expected to grow at a rate of 4% forever if your required return is 10.74%
Answer:
PV= $44.51
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Dividen 1= $3
Discount rate= 10.74% = 0.1074
Growth rate= 4% = 0.04
To calculate the price of the stock today, we need to use the following formula:
PV= D1 / (i - g)
PV= 3 / (0.1074 - 0.04)
PV= 3 / 0.0674
PV= $44.51

University Car Wash built a deluxe car wash across the street from campus. The new machines cost $270,000 including installation. The company estimates that the equipment will have a residual value of $24,000. University Car Wash also estimates it will use the machine for six years or about 12,000 total hours. Actual use per year was as follows: Year Hours Used 1 3,100 2 1,100 3 1,200 4 2,800 5 2,600 6 1,200 2. Prepare a depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.
Answer:
Year Depreciation expenses
1 $90,000
2 $60,000
3 $40,000
4 $26,667
5 $17,778
6 $11,556
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.
The double-declining-balance method is a depreciation approach in which the rate of depreciation for an asset is twice the rate of depreciation for the straight line method.
In the attached excel, the double-declining-balance depreciation rate is therefore calculated as follows:
Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Number of expected useful years = 1 / 6 = 0.166666666666667 = 16.6666666666667%
Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = 16.6666666666667% *2 = 33.3333333333334%
Also note the following in the attached excel file:
Beginning depreciable amount in Year 1 = Cost of the new machine = $270,000
The depreciation expenses for Year 6 is calculated by deducting the residual value of $24,000 from Year 6 Beginning depreciable amount. That is:
Depreciation expenses for Year 6 = $35,556 - $24,000 = $11,556
The residual value of $24,000 therefore represents the book value at the end of Year 6.
From the attached excel file, we therefore have:
Year Depreciation expenses
1 $90,000
2 $60,000
3 $40,000
4 $26,667
5 $17,778
6 $11,556
Fern, Inc., Ivy, Inc., and Jeremy formed a general partnership. Fern owns a 50% interest, and Ivy and Jeremy both own 25% interests. Fern, Inc. files its tax return on an October 31 year-end; Ivy, Inc., files with a May 31 year-end, and Jeremy is a calendar year taxpayer. Which of the following statements is true regarding the taxable year the partnership can choose?
A) The partnership must choose the calendar year because it has no principal partners.
B) The partnership must choose an October year-end because Fern, Inc., is a principal partner.
C) The partnership can request permission from the IRS to use a January 31 fiscal year under § 444.
D) The partnership must use the "least aggregate deferral" method to determine its "required" taxable year.
E) None of the above items are true.
Answer: D) The partnership must use the "least aggregate deferral" method to determine its "required" taxable year.
Explanation:
The Least Aggregate Deferral rule is used when neither of the partners can enforce their taxable year on the others because there is no dominant partner as is the case here because no shareholder has more than 50% ownership and the tax years of the partners are not aligned.
The partnership will have to use the "Least Aggregate Deferral" method when the above happens which is based on the percentage of profits for each partner.

What does a MRTS = mean? It means that if the input on the horizontal axis is increased by one unit, then the input on the vertical axis ▼ increases decreases by units and output will ▼ increase decrease not change .
Answer:
MRTS means that if the input on the horizontal axis is increased by one unit, then the input on the vertical axis decreases by units and output will not change.
Explanation:
The marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS) can be described as the amount by which one input's quantity must be decreased when an additional unit of another input is used to keep output constant. MRST is also known as technical rate of substitution.
Therefore, MRTS means that if the input on the horizontal axis is increased by one unit, then the input on the vertical axis decreases by units and output will not change.

When a company assigns the costs of direct materials, direct labor, and both variable and fixed manufacturing overhead to products that company is using
Answer: Absorption costing
Explanation:
Absorption costing believes that all costs that went into the production of a good or service should be absorbed by/ apportioned to those same goods and services regardless of if the costs are direct or indirect.
It works by first assigning the direct costs such as labor and material and then it apportions the indirect costs such as the variable and fixed manufacturing overhead costs. Absorption costing is the preferred costing method for presenting financial statements outside the company by both IFRS and U.S. GAAP.
Harris Fabrics computes its plantwide predetermined overhead rate annually on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that 32,000 direct labor-hours would be required for the period’s estimated level of production. The company also estimated $557,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $2.00 per direct labor-hour. Harris’s actual manufacturing overhead cost for the year was $679,453 and its actual total direct labor was 32,500 hours.
Required:
Compute the company’s plantwide predetermined overhead rate for the year.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $19.41 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (557,000 / 32,000) + 2
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $19.41 per direct labor hour

(Advanced analysis) Answer the question on the basis of the following information for a mixed open economy. The letters Y, Ca, Ig, Xn, G, and T stand for GDP, consumption, gross investment, net exports, government purchases, and net taxes respectively. Figures are in billions of dollars. Refer to the information. If government desired to raise the equilibrium GDP to $650, it could:
Answer:
The correct option is c. raise G by $30 or reduce T by $40.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
(Advanced analysis) Answer the question on the basis of the following information for a mixed open economy. The letters Y, Ca, Ig, Xn, G, and T stand for GDP, consumption, gross investment, net exports, government purchases, and net taxes respectively. Figures are in billions of dollars.
Ca = 25 + 0.75(Y - T)
Ig = Ig0 = 50
Xn = Xn0 = 10
G = G0 = 70
T = T0 = 30
Refer to the information. If government desired to raise the equilibrium GDP to $650, it could:
a. raise G by $45 or reduce T by $10.
b. raise G by $40 and reduce T by $30.
c. raise G by $30 or reduce T by $40.
d. raise both and T by $40.
e. reduce G by $30 and increase T by $40.
The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
Equilibrium GDP (Y) can be obtained as follows:
Y = C + G + I + Xn …………………….. (1)
Substituting all the values in the question into equation (1) and solve for Y, we have:
Y = 25 + 0.75(Y - 30) + 70 + 50 + 10
Y = 0.75Y - 22.50 + 155
Y – 0.75Y = 132.50
0.25Y = 132.50
Y = 132.50 / 0.25
Y = 530
Therefore, we have:
Y = Current equilibrium GDP = $530
Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required = Desired equilibrium GDP – Current equilibrium GDP = 650 - 530 = 120
From the question, we have:
Ca = 25 + 0.75(Y - T) ………………. (2)
The 0.75 in equation (2) is the marginal propensity to consume (MPC). Therefore, we have:
MPC = 0.75
Expenditure multiplier = 1 / (1 - 0.75) = 4
Tax multiplier = - MPC / (1 – MPC) = -0.75 / (1 – 0.75) = -3
Amount of increase in G or government expenditure required = Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required / Expenditure multiplier = 120 / 4 = $30
Amount of tax cut or decrease in T required = Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required / Tax multiplier = 120 / (-3) = -$40
Therefore, correct option is c. raise G by $30 or reduce T by $40.

Bonita Industries constructed a building at a cost of $14400000. Weighted-average accumulated expenditures were $5620000, actual interest was $566000, and avoidable interest was $272000. If the salvage value is $1120000, and the useful life is 40 years, depreciation expense for the first full year using the straight-line method is
Answer:
$338,800
Explanation:
Cost of the building = $14400000
Average accumulated expenditures = $5620000
Actual interest = $566000
Avoidable interest = $272000
Salvage value = $1120000
Useful life = 40 years
Depreciation expense for the first full year:
= ((Cost of the building + Avoidable interest) - Salvage value) / Useful life
= (($14400000 + $272000) - $1120000) / 40
= ($14672000 - $1120000) / 40
= $13552000 / 40
= $338,800

XYZ's sole shareholder Slick, notices that the cash listed on the balance sheet is $4,000. Slick suggests that the balance sheet should include his personal current cash balance of $100,000. Slick convinces the company accountant to change cash on XYZ's balance sheet to $104,000. After all, he would gladly put his personal cash in if needed.
Answer: Business Entity Concept
Explanation:
The Business entity concept posits that the owners of a business and the business itself, are different entities. This means that transactions involving the two are not to be mixed up but are to be recorded separately.
The reason this concept exists is to ensure that a business is analyzed and treated on its on merit and not that of its owner because the owner might be successful and the business isn't. The reverse is also true.
XYZ Inc violates this concept here by mixing the accounts of the owner and the business in order to influence a loan decision. This goes against accounting concepts and gave the company an incorrect valuation.
A newscaster earns $26600 and wants to invest 10% of his/her monthly salary to save for retirement in 28 years. if he/she invests this money at 4.2% compounded monthly, how much money will he/she have at retirement?
a) How much will be saved each year?
b) What will be the monthly deposit?
c) What will be the amount in the account after 28 years?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Annual salary= $26,600
Number of periods= 28*12= 336
Interest rate= 0.042/12= 0.0035
First, we need to calculate the annual savings:
Annual saving= 26,600*0.1= $2,660
Now, the monthly deposit:
Monthly deposit= 2,660/12= $221.67
Finally, the future value of the investment:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
FV= {221.67*[(1.0035^336) - 1]} / 0.0035
FV= $141,535.3
