Answer:
$32,375
Explanation:
The computation of operating cash flow for this project is shown below:-
Annual depreciation = Cost of fixed assets ÷ Life in years
= $68,000 ÷ 4 years
= $17,000
Operating cash flow
Annual sales $78,500
less: Cash cost ($41,000)
less: Depreciation ($17,000)
Earnings before tax $20,500
less: Tax at 25% ($5,125)
Earnings after tax $15,375
Add: Depreciation $17,000
Operating cash flow
every year $32,375
Therefore the operating cash flow is $32,375
PC.54 Claire & Dee's Tire Factory in Rexburg provides a free tire-rotation service for customers who purchase tires from them. For years this process took an average employee about 20 minutes to perform. Since they make no additional revenue from this service, they would like to make this process as efficient (or productive) as possible. Recognizing this challenge, management and key employees analyzed the process and made some time-saving changes. Over the course of a month they trained all employees on the new process, and after doing so, an average employee could rotate a set of four tires in about 15 minutes.In this case, what is the output that should be used for productivity calculations?
Answer:
15 minutes which result in 4 sets of tires per hour
Explanation:
Labor productivity is determined as the total output produced by an average worker during one hour. In this case, to determine the productivity of Claire & Dee's employees, you would need to determine how many sets of tires can an employee change in one hour = 60 minutes / 15 minutes = 4.
The output that should be used for productivity calculations is the new productivity improvement rate of 8%.
Data and Calculations:
Old efficiency rate = 33% (20/60 x 100)
New efficiency rate = 25% (15/60 x 100)
Productivity Improvement Rate
The new productivity improvement rate is 8% (5/60 x 100) or (33% - 25%), showing that workers can provide 4 free tire rotation services for customers in an hour, unlike the 3 free tire rotation services they provided under the old regime.
Thus, the output that should be used for productivity calculations is the new productivity improvement rate of 8%.

During 2017, Woods Company purchased 80,000 shares of Holmes Corporation common stock for $1,260,000 as an equity investment. The fair value of these shares was $1,200,000 at December 31, 2017. Woods sold all of the Holmes stock for $17 per share on December 3, 2018, incurring $56,000 in brokerage commissions.
Required:
1. Woods Company should report a realized gain on the sale of stock in 2018 of ____________.
Answer:
The multiple choices are as follows:
a.$44,000.
b.$100,000.
c.$104,000.
d.$160,000.
Option A,$44,000 is correct
Explanation:
In the year 2017,an unrealized loss of $60,000 was recorded on the investment i.e fair value at year end of $1,200,000 minus the cost of the investment of $1,260,000
In the year 2018,the total cash proceeds from sale of investment=($17*80,000)-$56,000=$1,304,000
The realized gain on sale of stock in 2018=cash proceeds-fair value-unrealized loss of $60,000=$1,304,000-$1,200,000-$60,000 =$44,000
Pochard Paints manufactures artist’s oil paints. Each 40 ml tube of paint requires 5 minutes of direct labor, and the standard labor rate is $9 per direct labor hour. In September, Pochard incurred 10,800 direct labor hours at a cost of $95,000 to produce 120,000 tubes of paint. Calculate Pochard’s direct labor rate variance for September. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125. If variance is zero, select "Not Applicable" and enter 0 for the amounts.)
Answer:
Direct labor rate variance= $2,160 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The standard labor rate is $9 per direct labor hour.
In September, Pochard incurred 10,800 direct labor hours for $95,000.
To calculate the direct labor rate variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Actual rate= 95,000/10,800= $8.80
Direct labor rate variance= (9 - 8.8)*10,800
Direct labor rate variance= $2,160 favorable
It is favorable because the hourly rate was cheaper than estimated.
The following data pertain to last year's operations at Tredder Corporation, a company that produces a single product: Units in beginning inventory 0 Units produced 20,000 Units sold 19,000 Selling price per unit $100.00 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $12.00 Direct labor $25.00 Variable manufacturing overhead $3.00 Variable selling and administrative $2.00 Fixed expenses per year: Fixed manufacturing overhead $500,000 Fixed selling and administrative $600,000 What was the absorption costing net operating income last year?
Answer:
Net operating income= 27,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units produced 20,000
Units sold 19,000
Selling price per unit $100.00
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $12.00
Direct labor $25.00
Variable manufacturing overhead $3.00
Variable selling and administrative $2.00
Fixed expenses per year:
Fixed manufacturing overhead $500,000
Fixed selling and administrative $600,000
Under the absorption costing method, the fixed manufacturing overhead gets included in the unitary production cost. First, we need to calculate the unitary product cost.
Unitary product cost= (12 + 25 + 3) + (500,000/20,000)
Unitary product cost= 40 + 25= $65
Income statement:
Sales= 100*19,000= 1,900,000
COGS= 65*19,000= (1,235,000)
Gross profit= 665,000
Variable selling and administrative= (2*19,000)=(38,000)
Fixed selling and administrative= (600,000)
Net operating income= 27,000
Piels Corporation produces a part that is used in the manufacture of one of its products. The costs associated with the production of 10,000 units of this part are as follows:
Direct materials $ 90,000
Direct labor 130,000
Variable factory overhead 60,000
Fixed factory overhead 140,000
Total costs $420,000
Of the fixed factory overhead costs, $60,000 is avoidable. Conners Company has offered to sell 10,000 units of the same part to Piels Corporation for $36 per unit.
Required:
1. Assuming there is no other use for the facilities, Piels should ___________.
Answer:
It is cheaper to produce
Explanation:
Cost of producing
Direct materials - 90000
Direct labor - 130000
Variable factory overhead - 60000
Fixed factory overhead - 60000
Total cost - 340000
Cost of buying `10000*36 = 360000
Incremental cost of buying = 360000-340000 = $20,000
It is cheaper to produce at 340000/10000 = $34 /unit
In making a decision whether to buy or manufacture , variable cost and the avoidable costs are considered relevant for this purpose
In the month of March the Digby Corporation received and delivered orders of 189,000 units at a price of $15.00 for revenue of $2.835mil for their product Deal. Digby uses the accrual method of accounting and offers 30 day credit terms. By the end of May Digby had collected payments of $2.835mil for the March deliveries. How much of the collected $2.835mil should Digby show on the March 31st income statement and how much on the May 31st income statement?
Answer:
$2.835 in March and $0 in May.
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
The actual method of accounting is that the revenue is not recognized in the period when the actual cash is received but the period in which it is earned.Hence, May-31 income statement will not recognize any part of revenue and March-31 income statement will recognize the whole revenue of $2.835 million.
Hence, $2.835 in March and $0 in May.
A magazine article reported that college students spend an average of $100 on a first date. A university sociologist believed that number was too high for the students at the university. The sociologist surveyed 32 randomly selected students from the university and obtained a sample mean of $92.23 for the most recent first dates. A one-sample T-test resulted in a p-value of 0.026.
Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the p-value?
A. The probability is 0.026 that the mean amount of money students from the university spend on a first date is less than $100
B. The probability is 0.026 that the mean amount of money students from the university spend on a first date is less than $92.23
C. The probability is 0.026 that the mean amount of money students from the university spend on a first date is more than $92.23
D. If the mean amount of money that students from the university spend on a first date is $100, the probability is 0.026 that a randomly selected group of 32 students from the university would spend a mean of $92.23 or less on their most recent first dates
E. If the mean amount of money that students from the university spend on a first date is less than $100, the probability is 0.026 that a randomly selected group of 32 students from the university would spend a mean of $92.23 or less on their most recent first dates.
Answer:
D. If the mean amount of money that students from the university spend on a first date is $100, the probability is 0.026 that a randomly selected group of 32 students from the university would spend a mean of $92.23 or less on their most recent first dates

Exercise 8-14 Inventory cost flow methods; perpetual system [LO8-1, 8-4] Altira Corporation uses a perpetual inventory system. The following transactions affected its merchandise inventory during the month of August 2018: Aug.1 Inventory on hand—2,100 units; cost $6.20 each. 8 Purchased 10,500 units for $5.60 each. 14 Sold 8,400 units for $12.10 each. 18 Purchased 6,300 units for $5.40 each. 25 Sold 7,400 units for $11.10 each. 31 Inventory on hand—3,100 units. Exercise 8-14 Part 1 Required: 1. Determine the inventory balance Altira would report in its August 31, 2018, balance sheet and the cost of goods sold it would report in its August 2018 income statement using the FIFO method. (Round "Cost per Unit" to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a. The inventory balance Altira would report in its August 31, 2018, balance sheet is $16,740.
b. Cost of good sold = $89,100
Explanation:
a. Determine the inventory balance Altira would report in its August 31, 2018, balance sheet
Based on FIFO method, we have:
Inventory 8,400 sold on Aug. 14 = 2,100 units from Aug. 1 beginning balance+ 6,300 units from Aug. 8 Purchases
Aug. 8 purchases balance after the Agug 14. sales = 10,500 - 6,300 = 4,200 units
Inventory 7,400 sold on Aug. 25 = 4,200 from Aug. 8 balance+ 3,200 from Aug. 18 Purchases
Aug. 18 purchases balance after the Agug 25. sales = 6,300 - 3,200 = 3,100 units
Value of closing inventory = 3,100 * 5.40 = $16,740
Therefore, the inventory balance Altira would report in its August 31, 2018, balance sheet is $16,740.
b. Determine the cost of goods sold it would report in its August 2018 income statement using the FIFO method.
Beginning inventory value = 2,100 * 6.20 = $13,020
Value of purchases = (10,500 * $5.60) + (6,300 * $5.40) = $92,820
Value of closing inventory = $16,740
Cost of good sold = $13,020 + $92,820 - $16,740 = $89,100

Last year Ann Arbor Corp had $250,000 of assets (which equals total invested capital), $305,000 of sales, $20,000 of net income, and a debt-to-total-capital ratio of 37.5%. The new CFO believes that a new computer program will enable the company to reduce costs and thus raise net income to $33,000. The firm finances using only debt and common equity. Assets, total invested capital, sales, and the debt to capital ratio would not be affected. By how much would the cost reduction improve the ROE
Answer:
8.32%
Explanation:
The computation of cost reduction improve the ROE is shown below:-
For computing the increase in ROE first we need to follow some steps which is here below:-
Debt = capital × Debt
= $250,000 × 37.5%
= $93,750
Equity = Assets - Debt
= $250,000 - $93,750
= $156,250
New ROE = New Net income ÷ Equity
= $33,000 ÷ $156,250
= 21.12%
Old ROE = Old Net income ÷ Equity
= $20,000 ÷ $156,250
= 12.8%
Increase in ROE = New ROE- Old ROE
= 21.12% - 12.8%
= 8.32%

You would like to retire in 30 years. The expected rate of inflation is 2% per year. You currently have a standard of living that requires $7940 of monthly expenses. Assuming you want to maintain the same standard of living in retirement, what are your monthly expenses expected to be the first year of retirement
Answer:
You would need $14,382.21 to maintain your purchasing power.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
You would like to retire in 30 years. The expected rate of inflation is 2% per year. You currently have a standard of living that requires $7940 of monthly expenses.
The inflation rate has the same intrinsic behavior as an investment with a compounded interest rate.
We need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 7,940*(1.02^30)
FV= $14,382.21
You would need $14,382.21 to maintain your purchasing power.
Presented below is information available for Concord Corporation. Current Assets Cash $ 4500 Short-term investments 50500 Accounts receivable 66000 Inventory 86000 Prepaid expenses 35000 Total current assets $ 242000 Total current liabilities are $50000. The acid-test ratio for Concord is:
Answer:
2.42 times
Explanation:
The computation of the acid test ratio is shown below:
Acid test ratio = Quick Assets ÷ Current liabilities
where,
Quick Assets = Cash + short term investment + account receivable
= $4,500 + $50,500 + $66,000
= $121,000
And, the current liabilities is $50,000
So the acid test ratio is
= $121,000 ÷ 50,000
= 2.42 times
Basically we applied the above formula to find out the acid test ratio
EHW Office Supplies, Inc. uses the perpetual inventory system. On September 4, 2019,EHW sold merchandise inventory on account at a price of $50,000 with payment terms of 1/10, n/30.

a. $4,540
b. $3,540
c. $3,700
d. $7,240
Answer:
$2,540
Options are inconsistent with given question
Explanation:
Allowance for uncollectible accounts is a contra asset account and it has credit nature. It needs to be debited to decrease the balance and credited to increase the balance. Balance of this account is adjusted in the account receivable to report the net receivable balance in the balance sheet.
As per given data
Beginning allowance for uncollectible accounts balance = $3,700
Write off is the adjustment mad in this account and it needs to be debited in this account, this transaction will reduce the balance.
Adjusted Balance = $3,700 - 2,700 = $1,000
Credit sales = $118,000
Estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts balance = $118,000 x 3% = $3,540
As allowance for uncollectible accounts has already have balance of $1,000, Bad debt expense for the year is $2,540 ($3,540 - $1,000).
Flychucker Corporation is evaluating an extra dividend versus a share repurchase. In either case $19,000 would be spent. Current earnings are $1.40 per share, and the stock currently sells for $50 per share. There are 5,000 shares outstanding. Ignore taxes and other imperfections. a. Evaluate the two alternatives in terms of the effect on the price per share of the stock and shareholder wealth per share
Answer:
Alternative I: (Extra dividend)
Price per share is $ 46.20
Shareholder wealth per share is $ 42.40
Alternative II: ( Share repurchase)
For share repurchase, the price per share and the shareholder wealth is equal to the stock price.
Explanation:
Alternative I: (Extra dividend)
Amount spent = $19,000
Outstanding shares = 5,000 shares
Stock price = $50
Price per share = Stock price - [tex]\frac{Amount spent}{Outstanding Shares}[/tex]
= $50 - [tex]\frac{19,000}{5,000}[/tex] = $50 - $3.8
= $ 46.20
Shareholder wealth per share = Price per share - [tex]\frac{Amount spent}{Outstanding Shares}[/tex]
= $46.20 - $3.8
=$ 42.40
Alternative II: ( Share repurchase)
For share repurchase, the price per share and the shareholder wealth is equal to the stock price.

Answer:
1. b. $42 per unit
2. a. $32 per unit
3. d. $69,200
4. b $72,600
Explanation:
1 and 2 The computation of unit productive cost using absorption costing and unit product cost using variable costing is shown below:-
Absorption Variable
Direct material $15 $15
Direct labor $5 $5
Variable manufacturing
overhead $12 $12
Fixed manufacturing
overhead $10
($20,000 ÷ 2000)
Product cost $42 $32
Therefore for computing the product cost of absorption and variable cost we simply added direct material, direct labor, variable manufacturing overhead and fixed overhead rate
3. The computation of the unit product cost using variable costing is shown below:-
Sales $180,000
Cost of goods manufactured ($756,00)
(1800 × $42)
Difference $104,400
Variable and selling
administrative ($25,200)
(1800 × $14)
Gross profit $79,200
Fixed selling and administrative
expenses ($10,000)
Net operating income $69,200
So, for computing the net operating income we simply deduct the Fixed selling and administrative expenses from gross profit.
4. The computation of operating income using variable costing is shown below:-
Sales $190,000
(1,900 × $100)
Variable cost of goods
manufactured $60,800
(1,900 × $32)
Gross contribution margin $129,200
Variable and selling administrative ($26,600)
(1900 × $14)
Net contribution margin $102,600
Fixed cost ($30,000)
Operating income $72,600
Therefore for computing the operating income using variable costing we simply deduct the fixed cost from net contribution margin.

We simply deduct the variable cost and fixed cost from the sales revenue so that the net operating income could come and then deducted the income tax expense so that net income could arrive
Kevin, Rajiv, and Yakov are hunters who live next to a recreational wildlife game area that is open to hunting; in other words, anyone is free to use the recreational wildlife game area for hunting. Assume that these men are the only three hunters who hunt in this recreational wildlife game area and that the recreational wildlife game area is large enough for all three hunters to hunt intensively at the same time.
Each year, the hunters choose independently how often to hunt; specifically, they choose whether to hunt intensively (that is, to set several traps and hunt long hours, which hurts the sustainability of the recreational wildlife game area if enough people do it) or to hunt nonintensively (which does not hurt the sustainability of the recreational wildlife game area). None of them has the ability to control how much the others hunt, and each hunter cares only about his own profitability and not the state of the recreational wildlife game area.
Assume that as long as no more than one hunter hunts intensively, there are enough animals to restock the recreational wildlife game area. However, if two or more hunt intensively, the recreational wildlife game area will become useless in the future. Of course, hunting intensively earns a hunter more money and greater profit because he can sell more animals.
The recreational wildlife game area is an example of _____________ because the animals in the recreational wildlife game area are ________ and ___________.
Answer: Common resource ,
Non excludable and Rival in consumption
Explanation:
Common resource is defined as the resource that is usually available to people in open form and people tend to overuse it.This creates shortage of resource and brings scarcity.They are considered rival in nature.Any good is considered rival if consumption of good by one person reduces consumption of that good for another person. It is regarded as subtractable.Non-excludable good is defined as the good that does not stop other people or group of people to consume or use it.There is no certain restriction of using particular good.According to the questions scenario, recreational wildlife game area is common resource because Yakov, Rajiv and Kevin are using that area for hunting openly .Other hunters can also use the area for hunting as it is available commonly for everyone as per their needs.
Animal of wildlife game area can be considered rival and non-excludable in consumption because they are openly available for hunter and there is no restriction on their usage (hunting) particularly.Thus, if a hunter hunts more number of animals using intensive hunting mechanism, it will reduce number of animals for other hunters .

A work center uses kanban containers that hold 200 parts. To produce enough parts to fill a container, 60 minutes of setup plus run time are needed. Moving the container to the next workstation, waiting time, processing time at the next work station, and return of the empty container take 120 minutes. There is an overall demand rate of 10 units per minute. Calculate the number of containers needed for this process.
Answer:
9 containers
Explanation:
Data given
Container holds (capacity) = 200 units
Demand rate per minute = 10 units
The computation of number of containers needed is shown below:-
Time to fill container = Setup time + Processing time
= 60 + 120
= 180 minutes
Number of containers (n) = (Demand × Time to fill container) ÷ Capacity of the container
= (10 × 180) ÷ 200
= 1,800 ÷ 200
= 9 containers
Therefore for computing the number of containers we simply applied the above formula.
