Sandoval needs to determine its year-end inventory. The warehouse contains 33,000 units, of which 4,300 were damaged by flood and are not sellable. Another 3,300 units were purchased from Markor Company, FOB shipping point, and are currently in transit. The company also consigns goods and has 5,300 units at a consignee's location. How many units should Sandoval include in its year-end inventory
Answer:
37,300
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How many units should Sandoval include in its year-end inventory
Using this formula
Year-end inventory units=(Warehouse units- Damaged units)+ Units purchased+ Units at consignee's location
Let plug in the formula
Year-end inventory units=(33,000 - 4,300) +3,300+5,300
Year-end inventory units=28,700+3,300+5,300
Year-end inventory units=37,300
Therefore How many units should Sandoval include in its year-end inventory is 37,300

Ob. $16,800
Oc. 513,660
Od. $15.840
Answer:
$15,840
Explanation:
Present value = Future value / (1 + r)^n
Rate, r = 6% = 0.06
Future value = $20,000
Number of years, n = 4
Present value = $20000 / (1 + 0.06)^4
Present value = $20000 / 1.06^4
Present value = $20,000 / 1.26247696
Present value = $15841.873
Using the partial table of present values :
Present value = Future value * PV(6%, 4)
PV at 6%, 4 years = 0.792
Present value = $20,000 * 0.792 = $15,840
On the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Honda Motor Company stock closed at ¥2,915 per share on Monday, June 6, 2016. Honda trades as an ADR on the NYSE. One underlying Honda share equals one ADR. On June 6, 2016, the ¥/$ exchange rate was ¥107.65/$1.00. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) At this exchange rate, what is the no-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR?
Answer:
$27.08
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the no-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR
Using this formula
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=Stock closed per share /Exchange rate
Let plug in the formula
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=¥2,915 / ¥107.65
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=$27.078
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=$27.08 (Approximately)
Therefore the no-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR is $27.08

Ray acquired an activity several years ago, and in the current year, it generates a loss of $50,000. Ray has AGI of $140,000 before considering the loss from the activity.
If the activity is a bakery and Ray is not a material participant, what is his AGI?
Answer:
adjusted gross income should be $140,000
Explanation:
The computation of the adjusted gross income is given below:
Given that
There is the loss of $50,000
And, the adjusted gross income prior considering the loss should be $140,000
So here $50,000 loss should be suspended under the rule of the passive loss as ray should not be the material participant
Therefore adjusted gross income should be $140,000

Comparative Balance Sheet Dec. 31, 20X9 Assets Current Assets: Cash and Cash Equivalents $29,000 Account Receivable, Net 31,000 Merchandise Inventory 53,000 Total Current Assets $113,000 Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net 120,000 Total Assets $233,000 Liabilities Current Liabilities: Accounts Payable $4000 Notes Payable 3000 Total Current Liabilities $7000 Long-term Liabilities 84,000 Total Liabilities $91,000 Stockholders' Equity Common Stock $30,000 Retained Earnings 112,000 Total Stockholders' Equity $142,000 Total Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity $233,000 Calculate the debt to equity ratio.
Answer:
The debt to equity ratio is 0.64.
Explanation:
The debt to equity ratio can be calculated using the following formula:
Debt to equity ratio = Total Liabilities / Stockholders' Equity ……………………. (1)
Where:
Total Liabilities = $91,000
Stockholders' Equity = $142,000
Substitute the relevant data into equation (1), we have:
Debt to equity ratio = $91,000 / $142,000 = 0.64
Therefore, the debt to equity ratio is 0.64.
Waterway Industries was organized on January 1, 2021. During its first year, the corporation issued 2,400 shares of $50 par value preferred stock and 150,000 shares of $10 par value common stock. At December 31, the company declared the following cash dividends: 2021, $5,800; 2022, $13,100; and 2023, $28,800.
Required:
Show the allocation of dividends to each class of stock, assuming the preferred stock dividend is 5% and noncumulative.
Answer:
Preferred dividend is noncumulative which means that it will not accrue if company was unable to pay in any period.
Dividends in 2021
Preferred dividends:
= Number of preferred shares * par value * dividend percentage
= 2,400 * 50 * 5%
= $6,000
Dividends of $5,800 were declared which is not enough to cover even preferred shares so preferred shares will take all the dividends.
Preferred share dividends = $5,800
Common share dividends = $0
Dividends in 2022:
Preferred dividends = $6,000
Common dividends:
= Declared dividends - Preferred dividends
= 13,100 - 6,000
= $7,100
Dividends in 2023:
Preferred dividends = $6,000
Common dividends:
= Declared dividends - Preferred dividends
= 28,800 - 6,000
= $22,800
Wang Co. manufactures and sells a single product that sells for $540 per unit; variable costs are $324 per unit. Annual fixed costs are $836,000. Current sales volume is $4,290,000. Management targets an annual pre-tax income of $1,215,000. Compute the unit sales to earn the target pre-tax net income.
Answer: 9,495 units
Explanation:
First find the contribution margin:
= Sales price - Variable cost
= 540 - 324
= $216 per unit
The unit sales required can be calculated by the formula:
= (Annual pre-tax income target + Fixed cost) / Contribution margin
= (1,215,000 + 836,000) / 216
= 9,495.37 units
= 9,495 units

A company produces a single product. Variable production costs are $12.50 per unit and variable selling and administrative expenses are $3.50 per unit. Fixed manufacturing overhead totals $41,000 and fixed selling and administration expenses total $45,000. Assuming a beginning inventory of zero, production of 4,500 units and sales of 3,850 units, the dollar value of the ending inventory under variable costing would be: Multiple Choice $10,400 $5,850 $8,125 $13,975
Answer:
the third option is correct - $8,125
Explanation:
The calculation of the ending inventory under variable costing is given below:
Ending inventory value (Variable costing) os
= Variable production cost per unit × No. of units
= $12.50 × (4,500 - 3,850)
= $8,125,
Hence, the ending inventory under variable costing is $8,125
Therefore the third option is correct

Answer:
3. The special concept reminded by the phrase "Exchanging Butter Cake for Dates" is:
Trade by barter.
4. The need fulfilled by this business is people's demand for Cake.
The want fulfilled by this business is the organization's supply of dates for its production of cake.
Explanation:
A trade by barter involves the exchange of one good or service by one trading party for another good or service from the coincidental trading party without the use of money or monetary mediums. Trade by barter enables people without money to fulfill their needs. The major problem with trade by barter is that there must be coincidence of wants by the two trading partners. This is not always feasible.
Trent Inc. needs an additional worker on a multiyear project. It could hire an employee for a $88,000 annual salary. Alternatively, it could engage an independent contractor for a $95,000 annual fee. Trent's income tax rate is 21 percent. Required: Compute the annual after-tax cost of each option and indicate which minimizes the after-tax cost of obtaining the worker
Answer: The cheaper cost is to hire an additional worker.
Explanation:
Employee:
With an employee, Trent is going to have to pay payroll taxes.
After-tax cost of hiring employee:
= Salary * (1 + Payroll tax)
= 88,000 * ( 1 + 7.5%)
= $94,600
The subtract the income tax from this amount:
= 94,600 * ( 1 - 21%)
= $74,734
Contractor:
With a contractor, only the marginal income tax is accounted for:
= 95,000 * (1 - 21%)
= $75,050
The cheaper cost is to hire an additional worker.
