Answer:
11,125 units
Explanation:
Particulars Units
Beginning WIP (2500*0.75) 25% is completed 1,875
Units started and completed during the month 8500
[10,000 -1500 as ending Inventory]
Ending Inventory [1500*0.50] 750
Equivalent units 11,125
So, the equivalent units for conversion costs during October is 11,125 units

XYZ plans to sell 28,000 units in April. If it has 6,000 units on hand at the start of the month, and plans to have 9,000 units on hand at the end of the month, how many units must be purchased from the supplier during the month
Answer:
Purchases= 31,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales= 28,000 units
Beginning inventory= 6,000 units
Desired ending inventory= 9,000 units
To calculate the purchases, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 28,000 + 9,000 - 6,000
Purchases= 31,000
When using process costing, nonmanufacturing costs are ______.
a) included as part of the cost of the product
b) expensed during the period
c) incurred ignored treated as part of conversion costs
Answer:
b) expensed during the period
Explanation:
Process costing can be defined as a cost accounting method used for assigning manufacturing or production costs to the units of goods produced by a business firm over a specific period of time. It is mostly used by firms that produce a large quantity of homogeneous or similar products on a continuous basis.
Typically, process costing uses more than one Work in Process Inventory account because costing is done at each stage of the production or manufacturing process.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) can be defined as the set of commonly used accounting standards in the U.S.
This ultimately implies that, the United States of America, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the accounting principles, procedures and standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and adopted by the United States of America, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Explanation:
Supernormal Growth Rizzi Co. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a 25 percent rate for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 7 percent thereafter. If the required return is 13 percent and the company just paid a $3.10 dividend, what is the current share price?
Answer:
$86.13
Explanation:
The computation of the current share price is shown below:
Given that
Dividend just Paid (D0) is $3.10
and Required Return (R ) 13%
Now
Dividend Paid in 1st year = $3.10 (1.25) = $3.875
Dividend Paid in 2ndyear = $3.875 (1.25) = $4.844
Dividend Paid in3rd year = $4.844 (1.25) = $6.055
Dividend Paid in 4th year = $6.055 (1.07) = $6.47
Now
Stock Price in 3rd year (P3) = D4 ÷ (R - g)
= $6.47 ÷ (0.13- 0.07)
= $107.83
Now the Current Share Price(P0) is
Current Share Price (P0) = $3.875 ÷ (1.13) + $4.844 ÷ (1.13)^2 + $6.055 ÷ (1.13)^3 + $107.83 ÷ (1.13)^3
= $3.42 +$3.79 + $4.19 + $74.73
= $86.13

Explanation:
Unemployment is when people who are willing and able to work do not have jobs
Types of unemployment
structural unemployment is an unemployment that occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition. Structural unemployment tends to be permanent.
Frictional unemployment: the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. Eg. when a real estate agent who leaves a job in Texas and searches for a similar, higher-paying job in California.
Voluntary unemployment: e.g. worker at a fast-food restaurant who quits work and attends college.
Cyclical unemployment: it occurs as a result of fluctuations in the economy. Unemployment would be high in a downturn and low in a boom
It is impractical to the owners of the store to attempt to employ all the unemployed people in their communities. the most practical step that can be taken is to make donations that fund businesses. this would provide funds needed for those unemployed to start their own businesses. this would reduce unemployment

Twenty-five percent of the company's sales are for cash and 75% are on account. Collections for sales on account follow a stable pattern as follows: 50% of a month's credit sales are collected in the month of sale, 30% are collected in the month following sale, and 15% are collected in the second month following sale. The remainder are uncollectible. Given these data, cash collections for December should be:
Answer: $136,375
Explanation:
Going by the collections pattern of the company, there will be collections for 3 months in December being October, November and December.
December collections will be:
= (50% * December credit sales) + (30% * November Credit sales) + (15% * October credit sales) + December cash sales
December credit sales = 75% * 130,000 = $97,500
November credit sales = 75% * 170,000 = $127,500
October credit sales = 75% * 150,000 = $112,500
December collections are:
= (50% * 97,500) + (30% * 127,500) + (15% * 112,500) + (25% * 130,000)
= $136,375
Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
a. Suppose a firm’s total assets turnover ratio falls from 1.0 to 0.9, but at the same time its profit margin rises from 9% to 10% and its debt decreases from 60% of total assets to 40%. Under these conditions, the ROE will increase.
b. Suppose a firm’s total assets turnover ratio falls from 1.0 to 0.9, but at the same time its profit margin rises from 9% to 10% and its debt increases from 40% of total assets to 60%. Without additional information, we cannot tell what will happen to the ROE.
c. The Du Pont equation provides information about how operations affect the ROE, but the equation does not include the effects of debt on the ROE.
d. Other things held constant, an increase in the debt ratio will result in an increase in the profit margin on sales.
e. Suppose a firm’s total assets turnover ratio falls from 1.0 to 0.9, but at the same time its profit margin rises from 9% to 10%, and its debt decreases from 60% of total assets to 40%. Under these conditions, the ROE will decrease.
Answer:
a. Suppose a firm's total assets turnover ratio falls from 1.0 to 0.9, but at the same time its profit margin rises from 9% to 10% and its debt decreases from 60% of total assets to 40%. Under these conditions, the ROE will increase.
Explanation:
Asset turnover ratio of a firm is sales divided by total assets. If this ratio falls the revenue of the firm has declined, but since the profit margin has increased means company has made efforts to cut down its expenses and cost. If the debt has decreased then its equity portion will increase resulting in ROE to increase.

D. Dr Cash $325,000
Dr Accumulated Depreciation-Equipment $52,500
Cr Equipment $375,000
Cr Gain on disposal of Equipment $2,500
Explanation:
A. Calculation to determine What was the annual amount of depreciation for the Years 1-3 using the straight-line method of depreciation
Year 1 Depreciation expense Year 1=($375,000-$25,000)/20 years
Year 1 Depreciation expense Year=$17,500
Year 2 Depreciation expense Year=($375,000-$25,000)/20 years
Year 2 Depreciation expense Year=$17,500
Year 3 Depreciation expense Year=($375,000-$25,000)/20 years
Year 3 Depreciation expense Year=$17,500
Therefore the annual amount of depreciation for the Years 1-3 using the straight-line method of depreciation is :
Year 1 $17,500
Year 2 $17,500
Year 3 $17,500
B. Calculation to determine What was the book value of the equipment on January 1 of Year 4

Taveras Corporation is currently operating at 50% of its available manufacturing capacity. It uses a job-order costing system with a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Machine-hours required to support estimated production 200,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 2,800,000 Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $ 2.00 Required: 1. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate. 2. During the year, Job P90 was started, completed, and sold to the customer for $3,200. The following information was available with respect to this job: Direct materials $ 1,472 Direct labor cost $ 1,056 Machine-hours used 79 Compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job P90.
Answer:
the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job P90 is $3,792
Explanation:
The computation of the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job P90 is given below:
But before that the predetermined overhead rate should be calculated
So,
= ($2,800,000 ÷ 200,000) + $2
= $16
Now the total manufacturing cost is
= $1,472 + $1,056 + 79 × $16
= $3,792
hence, the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job P90 is $3,792
Zigzag Manufacturing has just hired a new controller, Leslie Demorest. During her first week on the job, Leslie was asked to establish a budget for operating expenses in 2019. Since Leslie was not yet familiar with the operations of Zigzag Manufacturing, she decided to budget these expenses using the same procedures as the prior controller. Therefore, in order to establish a budget for operating expenses, Leslie started with actual operating expenses incurred in 2018 and added 3.8%. Leslie based this percentage on inflation as measured by the consumer price index.
Required: Comment on the effectiveness of Leslie’s budgeting strategy.
Answer:
Zigzag Manufacturing
The Effectiveness of Leslie Demorest's Budgeting Strategy
The strategy of adjusting the previous year's operating expenses with inflation is not an effective way of strategic budget planning. Leslie's budgeting strategy does not take advantage of forecasts of unexpectedly good performance and fails to provide any reaction that can occur when there are downturns in cash flow.
An effective budgeting strategy should provide the standard for the effective use of financial resources of Zigzag Manufacturing in its business operations. There are no clear goals to be achieved and an evaluation of how the goals will be achieved through the budget implementation.
Explanation:
An effective budget should be able to forecast and track revenues and expenses, which are received and incurred in pursuit of business goals and projections. An effective budget ensures that those who implement the projections contained in the budget remain motivated. The idea of adjusting previous expenses with inflation is not an effective budgeting strategy.

You are the public relations director of a nonprofit hospital in a competitive market in a midsized city located in a metro area of 350,000 people. It is sweeps week for broadcast media. One of the stations is running a series on HIV/AIDS in the community. Recent segments have included those listed below.
Homelessness related to HIV/AIDS
How persons living with HIV/AIDS suffer from being outcasts
How understanding has increased in some circles but prejudice remains in many.
An appealing case of a hemophiliac who acquired HIV/AIDS through transfusion at the university hospital has been reported in the series. The university and its teaching hospital are located elsewhere in the state.
At a staff meeting this morning, you learn that petitions are circulating in the community to request your hospital to convert its former nurses’ residence into a clinic and residential shelter for HIV/AIDS patients.
The hospital no longer maintains a school of nursing. The three-story brick building has been used for miscellaneous administrative purposes since nurses’ training was phased out. The residence is connected to the hospital by an elevated corridor, similar to a skywalk. It does not have facilities for food service or laundry. Nurses always ate at the hospital and the hospital handled their laundry. The residence and hospital are served by common systems for hot water, steam heat, ventilating and sewer. The building predates central air conditioning.
The human resources director reports that the business agent for kitchen and laundry workers, who are represented by a union, has already made informal contacts about this proposal, suggesting that grievances will result, at the very least, and a strike could ensue.
Your director of volunteers expresses concern about reaction of volunteers who now handle many peripheral duties. Your physical plant supervisor, who lives in the neighborhood, says neighbors are already anxious over the possibility of HIV/AIDS patients in their vicinity. Your hospital’s five-year Strategic Plan, which was recently updated, has no mention of developing an HIV/AIDS specialty.
Write a letter (using your own name) to the hospital CEO, John Dolman and the Board of Governors outlining your plan to resolve this issue. Remember, that your letter will be made public to the other audiences and publics. In your recommendations, you should provide both long and short-term strategies that would solve this problem. To solve this problem you should note if additional resources or expenditures would be need to achieve the goals that you define.
When writing the letter you should provide a brief description of the problems, you have found. What are the facts about major issues? Identify facts about key players in the case, the business problem(s) and then rank order the critical issues. Consider relevant information and underlying assumptions. Finally provide your recommendations.
As you write your recommendations, think about the following;
a. How do the cultural values at the hospital relate to communication, technology, information flow and openness?
b. As the hospital goes forward, should it stick to the espoused culture or should it change? How would you recommend that they change?
c. How would you suggest that they resolve this disparity? In other words what should they do?
d. Provide specific suggestions that will help the organization as they go forward.
e. In the closing, highlight benefits of your recommendations. As a PR director, you need to be honest but tactful in your recommendations
Answer:
HIV AIDS is contagious disease. It is responsibility of the healthcare professionals to handle the person with special care. This virus spread quickly in the body of the victim and the person is often unaware of the disease due to very mild or no symptoms.

Respected Sir,
It is to bring into your knowledge about the spread of HIV/AIDS in the city. The people are unaware about the disease spread and those infected are carrying disease to others. There should be campaign run by the hospital to inform people about the spread of this contagious disease and preventions measures.
There should also be special arrangement for the people infected by the disease to stay and live in a separate house so the spread can be stopped. The hospital can allow people with symptoms for a free checkup so that more people can come and have their routine checkup.
It is high time because if the spread will increase at the same rate then controlling the disease would become difficult.
Regards,
John Andrews.
Stocks are a risky investment. Treasury Bills are a highly liquid and risk free investment whose interest income is not subject to state income taxes. Stocks have significantly outperformed Treasury Bills over the long term. In light of these higher returns, which best explains why an individual would invest in Treasury Bills vs. stocks
Answer: c. Preference for a very low risk investment would result in an individual choosing Treasury Bills over stocks despite lower expected returns.
Explanation:
Treasury bills offer little to no risk and would be perfect for people who do not want risky investments and are willing to receive a lower return in exchange for that lack of risk.
There are many reasons people would do this such as age where for instance, older people who are retired would prefer a steady source of income that they know is risk free as opposed to risky assets like stocks that could fail at any time.
You purchase the townhome listed above at realtor and borrow 95% of the listed price from Broadway Bank at an APR of 6% with monthly payments (your down payment is 5% of listed price).

Answer: Below is the complete question
You purchase a townhome for 335k and borrow 95% of the listed price from Broadway Bank at an APR of 6% with monthly payments (your down payment is 5% of listed price). The maturity of your mortgage equals 30 years with monthly payments. Draw a time line that depicts the cash flows from the mortgage payments- compute the payment and show your inputs and work.
answer:
$1,908.07 ( monthly payments ) will be made i.e. This depicts the cash flow from the mortgage payment
Explanation:
Cost of townhome = 335k
APR ( I ) = 6%
percentage of cost of townhome borrowed = 95%
Down payment of cost of townhome = 5%
maturity period = 30 years = 360 months
Determine time line that depicts cash flows
First step : calculate value of loan
value of loan = ( 95% )* (335,000) = $318,250
final step : calculate value of monthly payments
Applying TVM calculation
PMT = [PV = 318,250, FV = 0, N = 360, I = 0.06/12] ( excel function )
PMT = $1,908.07 ( monthly payments )
