Answer 1

Answer: $16,962

Explanation:

The cashflow from operating activities of a company shows the cash it gets from its day-to-day operations.

It is calculated as follows:

= (Net loss) + Depreciation + Decrease in receivables - increase in inventory - Decrease in accounts payable

= -13,302 + 34,990 + 2,045 - 6,266 - 505

= $16,962

The life of a sole proprietorship is limited. A sole proprietor can generally raise large sums of capital quite easily. Transferring ownership of a sole proprietorship is easier than transferring ownership of a corporation. A sole proprietorship is taxed the same as a C corporation. A sole proprietorship is the most regulated form of organization.

Answers

Answer: The life of a sole proprietorship is limited.

Explanation:

A sole proprietorship simply means a one man business where the owner manages, controls the business and enjoys the profits alone.

A sole proprietorship has a limited liability as its life is limited. Normally, the death of the owner would result in the end of the business and the owner bears the loss alone.

A A sole proprietorship is not taxed the same as a C corporation and it isn't the most regulated form of organization.

Roosevelt Corporation has a weighted-average unit contribution margin of $30 for its two products, Standard and Supreme. Expected sales for Roosevelt are 40,000 Standard and 60,000 Supreme. Fixed expenses are $1,800,000. How many Standards would Roosevelt sell at the break-even point?
A. 36,000
B. 40,000
C. 60,000
D. 24,000

Answers

Answer:

D. 24,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How many Standards would Roosevelt sell at the break-even point

First step

Total sales = 40000 + 60000

Total sales= 100000 units

Second step

Standard = 40000 / 100000

Standard= 0.4

Third step

Supreme = 60000 / 100000

Supreme= 0.6

Fourth step

Overall break even in units = 1800000 / 30

Overall break even in units= 60000 units

Now let calculate the Standards sales at break even point

Standards sales at break even point = 60000 *

0.4

Standards sales at break even point =24000 units

Therefore the Standards sales at break even point is 24000 units

The Gear Division makes a part with the following characteristics:
Production capacity 25,000 units
Selling price to outside customers $ 18
Variable cost per unit $ 11
Fixed cost, total $ 100,000
Motor Division of the same company would like to purchase 10,000 units each period from the Gear Division. The Motor Division now purchases the part from an outside supplier at a price of $17 each. Suppose that the Gear Division is operating at capacity and can sell all of its output to outside customers. If the Gear Division sells the parts to Motor Division at $17 per unit, the company as a whole will be:
a. better off by $10,000 each period.
b. worse off by $20,000 each period.
c. worse off by $10,000 each period.
d. There will be no change in the status of the company as a whole.

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= -10,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production capacity 25,000 units

Selling price to outside customers $ 18

Variable cost per unit $ 11

Fixed cost, total $ 100,000

First, we need to calculate the unitary total production cost:

Total unitary cost= (100,000/25,000) + 11

Total unitary cost= $15

The company can sell all of its production to outside customers and gain $3 from the sale. But, by selling to the Motor Division, it gains $2.

Now, the effect on income:

Effect on income= increase in income by not buying the part - decrease in sales revenue for not selling to outside customers

Effect on income= 10,000*2 - 10,000*3

Effect on income= 20,000 - 30,000

Effect on income= -10,000

Mauro Products distributes a single product, a woven basket whose selling price is $19 per unit and whose variable expense is $15 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $12,000. Required: 1. Calculate the company’s break-even point in unit sales. 2. Calculate the company’s break-even point in dollar sales. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) 3. If the company's fixed expenses increase by $600, what would become the new break-even point in unit sales? In dollar sales? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $19

Unitary variable cost= $15

Fixed costs= $12,000

To calculate the break-even point 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= 12,000 / 4

Break-even point in units= 3,000

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 12,000 / (4/19)

Break-even point (dollars)= $57,000

Now, the fixed costs are $12,600:

Break-even point in units= 12,600 / 4

Break-even point in units= 3,150

Break-even point (dollars)= 12,600 / (4/19)

Break-even point (dollars)= $59,850

a. $240.00
b. $154.50
c. $48.00
d. $338.40

Answers

Answer:

a. $240.00

Explanation:

Total variable overhead estimated = $3 * 30,900

Total variable overhead estimated = $92,700

Total overhead estimated = Total variable overhead estimated + Total fixed overhead estimated

Total overhead estimated = $92,700 + $154,500

Total overhead estimated = $247,200

Predetermined overhead rate = $247,200 / 30,900

Predetermined overhead rate = $8

Total machine-hours = 30

Amount of overhead applied to Job T687:

= $8 * 30 hours

= $240.00

Trevor is saving for a down payment to buy a house. The account earns 11.2% interest compounded monthly, and he wants to have $14,000 in 7 years. What must his principal be

Answers

Answer:

the principal amount is $6,415.35

Explanation:

The computation of the principal amount is given below:

Amount = Principal × (1 + rate of interest)^time period

$14,000 = Principal × (1 + 11.2% ÷ 12)^7× 12

$14,000 = Principal × (1.00933)^84

So, the principal is

= $14,000 ÷ 2.18227

= $6,415.35

hence, the principal amount is $6,415.35

The balanced budget amendment's requirement that total government spending cannot exceed total receipts collected in the same year has far-reaching ramifications for Social Security.

What is Balanced Budget?

A balanced budget is one in which total revenues equal or exceed total costs. After a full year of revenues and expenses have been incurred and recorded, a budget can be declared balanced. Budget deficits, according to proponents of a balanced budget, burden future generations with debt.

Example of Balanced Budget-

If Michael and Jessica earn $75,000 per year but spend only $70,000, they have a balanced budget because their expenses are equal to or less than their income. They can use the extra $5,000 in their budget to pay off debt or meet their savings goals in this situation.

It can sell each product at the split-off point or process it further in relatively similar processes, so management has decided that the most appropriate method for allocating joint costs is the market value at split-off point. One gallon of cream sells for $15, while one gallon of milk sells for $4. How much of the joint cost is allocated to cream

Answers

Answer:

$560

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How much of the joint cost is allocated to cream

Units Selling price Sales value Percentage of sales value Allocated cost

Cream (200*15=3,000) (3,000/5,400 = 56%)

(1,000 x 56% = $560)

Skimmed milk (600*4=2,400) (2,400/5,400 = 44%) (1,000 x 44% = $440)

Total $5,400 100% $1,000

($3,000+$2,400=$5,400)

(56%+44%=100%)

($560+$440=$1,00)

Therefore the joint cost allocated to CREAM is $560

You buy a 12-year 10% annual coupon bond at par value, $1,000. You sell the bond 3 years later for $1,100. What is your total rate of return over this 3-year period?

Answers

Answer:

40%

Explanation:

Coupon per year = Face Value * Coupon Rate

Coupon per year = $1,000 * 10%

Coupon per year = $1,000 * 0.10

Coupon per year = $100

Total Coupon in 3 years = Coupon per year * 3 years

Total Coupon in 3 years = $100 * 3 years

Total Coupon in 3 years = $300

Rate of return = [(Selling Price - Face Value) + Coupon Received] / Face Value*100

Rate of return = [[($1,100 - $1,000) + $300] / 1000] *100

Answers

Answer:

What explains the changes in the cash account?Where does a company spends its cash?How does a company receive its cash?

Explanation:

The Statement of Cash Flows shows the actual cash that a company has by showing the various places that cash comes in from and how cash leaves. It therefore shows how the cash account changes.

In showing how cash leaves the company, the statement shows how the company spends its cash and in showing how money comes in, the statement shows how the company receives its cash as well such as through investments in other companies and net income.

The Statement of Cash Flows depicts a company's actual cash flow by displaying where the money originates from and where it goes. As a result, it depicts the movement of the cash account.

The statement indicates how money left the company and how it gets in, such as through investments in other companies and net income.

So, Option A, B, and D are correct.

The other Options are incorrect as:

Option C is incorrect as a cash flow does not show how a company improves its operation it only shows the transactions.

Option E is incorrect as cash flow does not represent changes in noncash accounts as cash flow represents only cash transactions.

A cash flow is a physical or digital transfer of capital: a payment, notably from one central bank fund to another, is a cash flow in its restricted sense; the word 'cash flow' is primarily used to denote the transfer of funds from one central bank account to another.

Thus Options A, B, and D are correct statements for cash flow.

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

Suppose a chair manufacturer finds that the marginal rate of technical substitution​ (MRTS) of capital for labor in her production process is substantially than the ratio of the wage rate for​ assembly-line labor​ (w) to the rental rate on machinery​ (r). How should she alter her use of labor and capital to minimize the cost of​ production? Holding output​ constant, the chair manufacturer should use ▼ less more labor and ▼ more less capital.

Answers

Answer:

The chair manufacturer should use less labor and more capital.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete because the important word less is omitted. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Suppose a chair manufacturer finds that the marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS) of capital for labor in her production process is substantially less than the ratio of the wage rate for assembly-line labor (w) to the rental rate on machinery (r). How should she alter her use of labor and capital to minimize the cost of production? Holding output constant, the chair manufacturer should use [less/more] labor and [more/less] capital.

Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

The marginal rate of technical substitution (MRST) is the amount by which the quantity of one input must be reduced when one more unit of another input is used to keep output constant.

In order to minimize cost of production while holding output constant, when the MRTS of capital for labor is substantially greater than the ratio of w to r, it implies that less capital and more labor should be used; but when the MRTS of capital for labor is substantially less than the ratio of w to r, it implies that more capital and less labor should be used.

Based on the above explanation, the chair manufacturer should use less labor and more capital.

The benefits of portfolio diversification are highest when the individual securities have returns that Group of answer choices Are counter-cyclical Vary indirectly with the rest of the portfolio Are uncorrelated with the rest of the portfolio Vary directly with the rest of the portfolio

Answers

Answer:

Are uncorrelated with the rest of the portfolio

Explanation:

Portfolio diversification is the process of holding different asset and security classes in order to minimise the non systemic risk of the portfolio

Non systemic risk are risks that can be diversified away. they are also called company specific risk. Examples of this type of risk is a manager engaging in fraudulent activities.

The highest benefit of diversification is when the securities are uncorrelated

Correlation is a statistical measure used to measure the relationship that exists between two variables.

1. Positive correlation : it mean that the two variables move in the same direction. If one variable increases, the other variable also increases.

For example, there should be a positive correlation between quantity supplied and price

When there is a positive correlation, the graph of the variables is upward sloping

2. Negative correlation :  it mean that the two variables move in different direction. If one variable increases, the other variable decreases.

For example, there should be a negative correlation between quantity demanded and price

When there is a negative correlation, the graph of the variables is downward sloping

3. Zero correlation : there is no relationship between the variables

Skysong Industries borrows $22000 at 5% annual interest for six months on October 1, 2022. Which is the appropriate entry to accrue interest if Skysong employs a December 31, 2022, fiscal year?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Interest Expense [$22,000 × 5% × 3 ÷ 12] $275

                  To Interest payable $275

[Being accrued interest expense is recorded]

Here interest expense is debited as it increased the expense and credited the interest payable as it also increased the liability

In a small open economy, output (gross domestic product) is $25 billion, government purchases are $6 billion, and net factor payments from abroad are zero. Desired consumption and desired investment are related to the world real interest rate in the following manner:
World Real Interest Rate Desired Consumption Desired Investment
5% $12 billion $3 billion
4% $13 billion $4 billion
3% $14 billion $5 billion
2% $15 billion $6 billion
For each value of the world real interest rate, find national saving, foreign lending, and absorption. Calculate net exports as the difference between output and absorption. What is the relationship between net exports and foreign lending?

Answers

Answer:

Consumption is given.

Investment is also given.

Government spending is $6 billion.

GDP is $25 billion.

National Saving = GDP - Consumption - Government spending

Foreign lending = Savings - Investment

Absorption = Consumption + Investment + Government spending

Net Exports = GDP - Absorption

The relationship/ correlation between Net Exports and Foreign Lending is one that is perfectly positive as both measures are exactly the same.  

Joe is currently selling 873 hamburgers per month at $5 per hamburger for total monthly sales of $4,365. The restaurant manager feels that a $1,000 monthly advertising budget would increase monthly sales by $3,000 to a total of 1,473 hamburgers. Should Joe add advertising

Answers

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, as long as Joe is able to recover the money that he has spent on advertising and still increase his profit, then he should advertise. In this scenario, he wants to spend a fixed $1000 monthly on ads. If these ads generate an increase monthly sales of $3,000 as expected, then this means that Joe's restaurant will increase their total profits by $2,000 after recovering what they spent on the ads. This is what ads are for.

Your subscription to BusinessWeek is about to expire. You plan to subscribe to the magazine for the rest of your life. You can renew it by paying $50 annually, beginning immediately, or you can get a lifetime subscription for $500, also payable immediately. Assuming that you can earn 6.525% on your funds and that the annual renewal rate will remain constant, how many years must you live to make the lifetime subscription the better buy?
a) 7.48.
b) 8.80.
c) 10.35.
d) 12.18.
e) 14.33.

Answers

Answer: 15 years

Explanation:

The number of years that would make the lifetime subscription a better buy would be the one that would cause the present value of paying $50 per year to equal $500.

You can use the NPER function on Excel to find this out.

Rate = 6.525%

Pmt = 50

Pv = -500

Fv = 0

Type = 1 because payment begins immediately.

= 14.9997 years

= 15 years

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
