Answer:
$56,000 Favorable
Explanation:
The computation of the flexible-budget amount for variable manufacturing overhead is shown below
The Budgeted machine hours per unit os
= 24,000 ÷ 8,000
= 3
The Budgeted machine hours allowed for 8,500 units is
= 8,500 × 3
= 25,500
Now the Budgeted variable overhead rate per machine hour is
= $288,000 ÷ 24,000
= $12.00
Now
Flexible-budget amount is
= 25,500 × $12.00
= $306,000
So, the Flexible-budget variance is
= $250,000 - $306,000
= $56,000 Favorable

Hewell Co. started 2020 with two assets: Cash of E200,000 (Euros) and Land that originally cost E252,000 when acquired on April 4, 2015. On April 1, 2020, the company rendered services to a customer for E75,000, an amount immediately paid in cash. On October 1, 2020, the company incurred an operating expense of E50,000 that was immediately paid. On October 1, 2020, they also declared and paid a dividend of E100,000 to their parent company. No other transactions occurred during the year, so an average exchange rate is not necessary. Currency exchange rates were as follows:

8. Imagine a private company decides to sponsor an event in exchange for publicity. Give an example of when a sponsorship could have a negative result for the sponsoring company.
Answer:
Political events like a candidate rally are particularly tricky for companies, and sponsoring them could result in a lot of consumer backlash, specially from the people who are not affiliated to the sponsored politician or political party.
This is why many companies avoid political sponsorships or political statements, because politics is a very divisive issue, and while such an action could earn the company the loyal following of a few, it could also discourage a lot more people from ever buying their products.
A company reports the following: Sales $3,150,000 Average accounts receivable (net) 210,000 Determine (a) the accounts receivable turnover and (b) the number of days' sales in receivables. Round interim calculations to the nearest dollar and final answers to one decimal place. Assume a 365-day year. a. Accounts receivable turnover fill in the blank 1 b. Number of days' sales in receivables
Answer:
a. Account Receivables turnover = Sales / Average Account Receivables
Account Receivables turnover = $3,150,000 / $210,000
Account Receivables turnover = 15
b. Number of days sales in receivables = 365 / Account Receivables turnover
Number of days sales in receivables = 365 days / 15
Number of days sales in receivables = 24.33 days

Wexpro, Inc., produces several products from processing 1 ton of clypton, a rare mineral. Material and processing costs total $71,000 per ton, one-fourth of which is allocated to product X15. Six thousand five hundred units of product X15 are produced from each ton of clypton. The units can either be sold at the split-off point for $17 each, or processed further at a total cost of $8,800 and then sold for $22 each. Required: 1. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of further processing product X15
Answer:
Financial advantage of further processing =$23,700
Explanation:
A company should process a product further if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.
Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point are irrelevant to the decision to process further .

On December 27, 2020, Roberta purchased four tickets to a charity ball sponsored by the city of San Diego for the benefit of underprivileged children. Each ticket cost $125 and had a fair market value of $25. On the same day as the purchase, Roberta gave the tickets to the minister of her church for personal use by his family. At the time of the gift of the tickets, Roberta pledged $11,050 to the building fund of her church. The pledge was satisfied by a check dated December 31, 2020, but not mailed until January 3, 2021.
a. Presuming Roberta is a cash basis and calendar year taxpayer, she can deduct $_________ for the tickets and $____________ for the pledge as a charitable contribution for 2018.
b. Would the amount of the deduction be any different if Roberta were an accrual basis taxpayer?
Answer:
a. Presuming that Roberta is a cash basis and calendar year taxpayer, how much can she deduct as a charitable contribution for 2020?
Roberta can deduct ($125 x 4) - ($25 x 4) = $500 - $100 = $500. She cannot deduct the check because it was not mailed before December 31.
b. Would the amount of the deduction be any different if Roberta was an accrual basis taxpayer? Explain.
As an accrual taxpayer, she could deduct $500 + $11,050 = $11,550. She had already written the check and the fact that it was mailed on January 3 doesn't make a difference for an accrual taxpayer.

Determine aggregate expenditures (AE) in this economy when real GDP (Y) is equal to $1,500 billion, $2,000 billion, and $2,500 billion.
When Y = $1,500 billion, AE =
billion.
When Y = $2,000 billion, AE =
billion
When Y = $2.500 billion, AE =
billion.
Answer:
a) When Y = $1,500 billion, AE =$1050 billion
b)When Y = $2,000 billion, AE = $1400 billion
c) When Y = $2.500 billion, AE =$1750 billion
Explanation:
As we know,
Yd = Y- T
Y = national income (or GDP)
T = Tax Revenues = 0.3Y
a) When Y = $1,500 billion, AE = $1,500 -0.3*$1,500 = $1050 billion
b) When Y = $2,000 billion, AE =$2,000 - 0.3*$2,000 = $1400 billion
c) When Y = $2.500 billion, AE = $2.500 - 0.3 * $2.500 = $1750 billion
Assuming the economy to operate in equilibrium, the aggregate expenditure model explains that GDP is equal to the Aggregate expenditure. Therefore, the solutions are:
Y = $1,500 billion, AE = $1,500 billion.Y = $2,000 billion, AE = $2,000 billion.Y = $2,500 billion, AE = $2,500 billion.What is the aggregate expenditure model?The aggregate expenditure model explains the relationship between GDP and planned spending. The model states that:
[tex]\rm GDP = Planned \:spendings[/tex]
Therefore the Aggregate expenditure for the real GPDs is:
Y = $1,500 billion, AE = $1,500 billion.Y = $2,000 billion, AE = $2,000 billion.Y = $2,500 billion, AE = $2,500 billion.Learn more about the aggregate expenditure model here:

Howard's Supply Co. suffered a fire loss on April 20, 2021. The company's last physical inventory was taken January 30, 2021, at which time the inventory totaled $226,000. Sales from January 30 to April 20 were $606,000 and purchases during that time were $456,000. Howard's consistently reports a 30% gross profit. The estimated inventory loss is: Multiple Choice
Answer:
$257,800
Explanation:
According to the scenario, calculation of the given data are as follows,
Inventory on Jan. 30,2021 = $226,000
Sales = $606,000
Purchase = $456,000
Gross profit = 30% × $606,000 = $181,800
So, we can calculate the inventory loss by using following formula,
Inventory loss = COG for sale - COG sold
= ($226,000 + $456,000) - ($606,000 - $181,800)
= $682,000 - $424,200
= $257,800

Suppose you trade dollars and euros for a bank that has branches in Los Angeles and Frankfurt. You can electronically transfer the funds between the two branch locations at no cost, and trading commissions are negligible. The current dollar-per-euro exchange rate in Los Angeles is E$/EURLA=1.5653 , while in Frankfurt, it is E$/EURFR=1.586.
You can make a profit for the bank if you buy euros in _______ and sell them in _________.
Answer:
Explanation:
Profit will be made by you for the bank if you buy the Euros in Los Angeles, and sell the Euros to customers in Frankfurt...
Buying in Los Angeles comes at a price of $1 = €1.5653, then going ahead to sell in Frankfurt means you get to sell it at a rate of $1 = €1.586
Although this is a very tiny difference, of 0.0207. The reality is that when you're doing a lot of tradings that involves currency, you tend to see the profit. If for example, a total of $1 million is traded, then the profit would be $20700, which we all can attest to the fact that it's a lot of money.
Your and your business partner bake bread to be sold at the Madison Farmer's Market every Saturday. You calculate the underage cost to be $2.50 per loaf and the overage cost to be $0.75 per loaf. If you are baking the profit maximizing amount of bread that balances the overage and underage cost, how often should you expect to run out of bread at the farmer's market
Answer:
23%
Explanation:
Overage cost(Co) = $0.75
Underage cost(Cu) = $2.50
Service level = Cu/(Co + Cu)
Service level = $2.50 / ($0.75+$2.50)
Service level = $2.50 / $3.25
Service level = 0.76923077
Service level = 76.92%
So the optimal service level is 77%
Risk of stock-out = 100% - Service level
Risk of stock-out = 100% - 77%
Risk of stock-out = 23%

For 126 consecutive days, a process engineer has measured the temperature of champagne bottles as they are made ready for serving. Each day, she took a sample of 8 bottles. The average across all 1,008 bottles (126 days, 8 bottles per day) was 58 degrees Fahrenheit. The standard deviation across all bottles was 1.5 degree.
When constructing an X-bar chart, what would be the center line?
Answer:
58 degrees fahrenheit
Explanation:
the centerline will be 58 degrees fahrenheit
the upper control limit = 58 degrees + (1.099 x 1.5) = 59.6485 degrees fahrenheit
the lower control limit = 58 degrees - (1.099 x 1.5) = 56.3515 degrees fahrenheit
the A₃ control value for n = 8 is 1.099

Question Completion with Options:
a. A lack of diversification in fund A as compared to fund D.
b. Different benchmarks used to evaluate each fund’s performance.
c. A difference in risk premiums.
Answer:
The difference in rankings for Funds A and D is most likely due to:
a. A lack of diversification in fund A as compared to fund D.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Fund Treynor Measure Rank Sharpe Ratio Rank
A 1 4
B 2 3
C 3 2
D 4 1
b) The Sharpe ratio and the Treynor measure are two financial performance ratios that measure the risk-adjusted rate of return of an investment. Specifically, the Sharpe ratio helps investors to understand an investment's return profile when compared to its risk profile. On the other hand, the Treynor ratio measures the excess return generated for portfolio risk per unit.
In conclusion, the Sharpe ratio appears to be a better measure with a portfolio that is not properly diversified, while the Treynor ratio works better with a well-diversified portfolio.

Berry Corp. is considering an investment with an initial cost of $250,000. Assume straight line depreciation with no salvage value is appropriate. The investment is expected to generate cash revenues of $200,000 and incur cash costs of $120,000 each year for the next four years. Assume straight line depreciation with no salvage value is appropriate. What is the investment's annual rate of return
Answer:
14%
Explanation:
Depreciation = Cost - Residual value / Useful life
Depreciation = ($250,000 - 0)/4
Depreciation = $62,500
Annual net earnings = Revenue - Cost - Depreciation
Annual net earnings = $200,000 - $120,000 - $62,500
Annual net earnings = $17,500
Annual rate of return = Annual net earnings / Average investment
Annual rate of return = $17,500/ [($250,000 + $0) /2]
Annual rate of return = $17,500 / $125,000
Annual rate of return = 0.14
Annual rate of return = 14%
Ralph, knowing that his son, Ed, desires to purchase a tract of land, promises to give him the $25,000 he needs for the purchase. Ed, relying on this promise, buys an option on the tract of land. Now Ralph wants to rescind his promise to Ed. Will Judy be required to give her daughter, Liza, the tract of land on which she has started to build, and will Ralph be required to give his son, Ed $25,000 to purchase a tract of land. Can Ralph rescind his promise?
Answer:
(a) Yes, Judy will be required to give her daughter, Liza, the tract of land on which she has started to build. Therefore, Judy cannot rescind his promise to Liza.
(b) No, Ralph will NOT be required to give his son, Ed $25,000 to purchase a tract of land. Therefore, Ralph can rescind his promise.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
(a) Judy orally promises her daughter, Liza, that she will give her a tract of land for her home. Liza, as intended by Judy, gives up her homestead and takes possession of the land. Liza lives there for six months and starts construction of a home. Now Judy wants to rescind his promise to Liza.
(b) Ralph, knowing that his son, Ed, desires to purchase a tract of land, promises to give him the $25,000 he needs for the purchase. Ed, relying on this promise, buys an option on the tract of land. Now Ralph wants to rescind his promise to Ed.
Will Judy be required to give her daughter, Liza, the tract of land on which she has started to build, and will Ralph be required to give his son, Ed $25,000 to purchase a tract of land. Can Ralph rescind his promise?
Explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:
Each of the two cases will be decided based on the principle promissory estoppel.
Promissory estoppel refers to the legal principle that states that despite that there us formal consideration attached to a promise, it is still enforceable by law if the promise from the promisor makes the promisee to rely on the promise to his subsequent detriment.
(a) Will Judy be required to give her daughter, Liza, the tract of land on which she has started to build?
Yes, Judy will be required to give her daughter, Liza, the tract of land on which she has started to build.
The is because Liza has relied on the promise from Judy to her subsequent detriment by giving up her up her homestead and already starts construction of a home. Since the Judy promise from Judy induces the action of Liza that is reasonably expected by Judy, he cannot rescind his promise to Liza.
(b) Will Ralph be required to give his son, Ed $25,000 to purchase a tract of land. Can Ralph rescind his promise?
No, Ralph will NOT be required to give his son, Ed $25,000 to purchase a tract of land.
This is because there is Ed has not taken any definite and substantial action to justify that he has relied on the promise from Ralph to his subsequent detriment. It may not be possible to construe the purchase of an option on the tract of land by Ed as a definite and substantial action. Therefore, Ralph can rescind his promise.

The Cork Company has been sent a special order of 6,000 dongles to be shipped at the end of the month at a selling price of $7 each. The company has a production capacity of 90,000 dongles per month with total fixed production costs of $144,000. At present, the company is selling 80,000 dongles per month through regular channels at a selling price of $11 each. For these regular sales, the cost for one dongle is:
Variable Production $4.60
Cost Fixed Production Cost $1.80
Variable Selling Expense $1.00
At what selling price per unit should Cork be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special offer?
a. $7.40.
b. $7.70
c. $6.40
d. $4.90.
e. None of the answers provided is correct.
Answer:
Indifferent special order price=$5.60
Explanation:
To determine whether or not Cork Company should accept the order, we will compare the variable cost of the order to the sales value . If the special order generates a positive contribution margin, then it should be accepted.'
The relevant cash flows to be considered here includes
1. Variable cost of the special order
2. Sales revenue from the special order.
Note that the fixed cost are general unavoidable costs which would be incurred either way. And therefore should not be considered .
variable cos per unit = 4.60 +1.00= 5.60
$
Sales revenue from special order
(7×6,000) 42,000
Variable cost (5.60× 6,000) (33,600)
Net income from special order 8,400
A special order price that will produce a net income of zero is that which will make the Cork Company indifferent. And such price is that which equals to the variable cost of selling
Indifferent special order price = variable cost per unit = $5.60
Indifferent special order price=$5.60
The special offers under the cost accounting are the changes or the events arranged in between the regular business operations. The special offer is launched at lower or higher variable costs. This is done either to attract customers or to clear off the stock.
The correct option is e. None of the answer provided is correct.
The selling price per unit that is indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special offer is $5.60
As per the computation, the special offer should be accepted.
Computations:
The indifferent special order price should include only the variable cost.
[tex]\text{Indifferent price}=\text{Variable Production cost}+\text{Variable selling expense}\\\\=\$4.60+\$1.00\\\\=\$5.60[/tex]
Computation of net income from a special offer:
[tex]\text{Net Income}=\text{Sales revenue}-\text{Variable cost}\\\\=(\$7\times6,000)-(\$5.60\times6,000)\\\\=\$442,000-\$33,600\\\\=\$8,400[/tex]
For taking the decision of accepting or rejecting the special offer:
variable costs of existing and special offers are compared.The variable cost and the selling price must be equal for generating a net income of zero.The positive contribution margin indicates acceptance of the special offer.To know more about cost accounting, refer to the link:

Citibank need to borrow $1 million for 6 months starting in 2 years. Citibank is concerned about the interest rate would like to lock in the interest rate it pays by going long an FRA with Bank of America. The FRA specifies that Citibank will borrow at a fixed rate of 0.04 for 6 months on $1 million in 2 years. If the 6 months LIBOR rate proves to be 0.01. Then to settle the FRA, what is the cash flow to Citibank at the end of 2 years
Answer:
"$ 15,000" is the correct solution.
Explanation:
The given values are:
Agreed fixed rate,
= 0.04
LIBOR rate,
= 0.01
No. of borrowing months,
= 6
National amount,
= 1000000
Now,
The net payment will be:
= [tex]National \ principal*(Floating \ rate - Fixed \ rate)\times \frac{No. \ of \ months}{12}[/tex]
On substituting the above values, we get
= [tex]1000000\times (0.01-0.4)\times \frac{6}{12}[/tex]
= [tex]1000000\times (-0.03)\times 0.5[/tex]
