Bellevue Company has 26,000 units of inventory on hand at December 31. It sold 1,950 units which are in transit and were shipped FOB destination. Bellevue purchased 3,250 units which were shipped FOB shipping point by the seller and are still in transit. What is the total amount of inventory to which Bellevue has legal title at December 31
Answer:
24050
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the total amount of inventory to which Bellevue has legal title at December 31
Using this formula
Inventory=Inventory on hand at December 31- Units in Transit
Let plug in the formula
Inventory=26,000 units- 1,950 units
Inventory=24050
Therefore the total amount of inventory to which Bellevue has legal title at December 31 is 24050
R(0,t) is the Spot Zero-Coupon (or Discount) Rate. It is the annualized rate on a pure Unit Discount bond B(0,t) - the bond that pays 1 dollar at time t. Assume that R(0,13) = 8.00 per cent. What is the price of B(0,13)? Answer with three decimal digits accuracy. Example: 0.728
Answer:
0.368
Explanation:
Price of B(0,13) = 1 / (1 + interest rate)^years
Price of B(0,13) = 1 / (1 + 8%)^13
Price of B(0,13) = 1 / (1+0.08)^13
Price of B(0,13) = 1 / (1.08)^13
Price of B(0,13) = 1 / 2.7196237
Price of B(0,13) = 0.3676979247
Price of B(0,13) = 0.368
If the price of a good increases, _____________. The demand curve _________________ . If the number of buyers in the market increases, ________________. The demand curve ____________.
Answer:
1. Quantity demanded decreases
2. Shift to the left
3. Quantity demanded increases
4. Shift to the right
Explanation:
If the price of a good increases, QUANTITY DEMANDED DECREASES, The demand curve SHIFT TO THE LEFT.
If the number of buyers in the market increases, QUANTITY DEMANDED INCREASES. The demand curve SHIFT TO THE RIGHT.
This is based on the law of demand which states under normal circumstances, the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded, and the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded.
A demand curve moves to the right when there is an increase in quantity demanded, while the demand curve also moves to the left when there is a decrease in quantity demanded.
Each scenario below gives some information about price elasticity of demand for a firm. Use this information to answer the questions.
Honest Abe's Used Cars estimates the price elasticity of demand for their cars to be 5.10. Last month, Abe tried a new marketing scheme which decreased the number of cars sold by 57%.
Abe must have___prices. Abe's prices must have changed by___. Therefore, Abe's total revenue____.
At Webs-R-Us, a website design company, the new manager has decided to increase the price of Webs-R-Us services by 45%. If Webs-R-Us has a price elasticity of demand at 0.70, we can expected the number of websites designed to____. Therefore, Webs-R-Us's total revenue will The number of websites will change by_____.
Answer:
Increased
2.907%
decreased
decrease
increase
0.64
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
Abe's elasticity of demand is elastic because it has a value greater than 1.
if quantity demanded decreases, it means that price must have been increased. this would lead to a decrease in total revenue
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price.

On December 31, there were 53 units remaining in ending inventory. These 53 units consisted of 9 from January, 10 from February, 14 from May, 8 from September, and 12 from November. Using the specific identification method, what is the cost of the ending inventory
Answer:
Cost of the ending inventory = $7,108
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
A company had the following purchases during the current year:
January 17 Units at $112
February 37 Units at $123
May 32 Units at $135
September 29 Units at $143
November 27 Units at $153
On December 31, there were 53 units remaining in ending inventory. These 53 units consisted of 9 from January, 10 from February, 14 from May, 8 from September, and 12 from November. Using the specific identification method, what is the cost of the ending inventory?
Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
Specific identification method is an inventory method under which costs of goods sold and the closing/ending inventory are calculated using the particular cost of each inventory batch at the moment they were received.
Therefore, cost of the ending inventory is calculated as sum of the product of the number of closing units from each month and the cost per unit of purchases in that month.
Therefore, we have:
Cost of the ending inventory = (Number of closing units from January * Cost per unit of January Purchases) + (Number of closing units from February * Cost per unit of February Purchases) + (Number of closing units from May * Cost per unit of May Purchases) + (Number of closing units from September * Cost per unit of September Purchases) + (Number of closing units from November * Cost per unit of November Purchases) ………… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Cost of the ending inventory = (9 * $112) + (10 * $123) + (14 * $135) + (8 * $143) + (12 * $153) = $7,108
The management of Penfold Corporation is considering the purchase of a machine that would cost $360,000, would last for 10 years, and would have no salvage value. The machine would reduce labor and other costs by $50,000 per year. The company requires a minimum pretax return of 9% on all investment projects. Click here to view Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using the tables provided. The net present value of the proposed project is closest to (Ignore income taxes.):
Answer:
the net present value is -$72,050
Explanation:
The computation of the net present value is shown below
= $50,000 per year ×PVIFA factor at 10 years for 9% - $360,000
= $50,000 ×5.7590 - $360,000
= $287,950 - $360,000
= -$72,050
hence, the net present value is -$72,050
So the same should be relevant and considered too

Bethany needs to borrow $10,000. She can borrow the money at 6% simple interest for 5 yr or she can borrow at 5% with interest compounded continuously for 5 yr.
a. How much total interest would Bethany pay at 6% simple interest?
b. How much total interest would Bethany pay at 5% interest compounded continuously?
c. Which option results in less total interest?
Answer:
a. $3000
b. 2840.25
c. compounded continuously
Explanation:
a. principal amount, p = $10000
Interest rate in the case of simple interest = 6%
Time, t = 5 years
Interest amount = Prt
Interest amount = 10000 x 6% x 5 = $3000
b. principal amount, p = $10000
Interest rate, r = 5%
Time, t = 5 years
Interest amount = Pe^(rt) - P
Interest amount = 10000 (2.71)^(5% x 5) - 10000
Interest amount = 2840.25
c. Compounded continuously has a lower interest amount.

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
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
Worldwide Manufacturing produces a unique valve and has the capacity to produce 50,000 valves annually. Currently Worldwide produces 40,000 valves and is thinking about increasing production to 45,000 valves next year. What is the most likely behavior of total manufacturing costs and unit manufacturing costs, given this change
Answer:
c) Total manufacturing costs will increase and unit manufacturing costs will also decrease.
Explanation:
Based on the information given the most likely behavior of total manufacturing costs and unit manufacturing costs, given this change is that TOTAL MANUFACTURING COSTS WILL INCREASE AND UNIT MANUFACTURING COSTS WILL DECREASE since Manufacturing cost consists of DIRECT MATERIALS, DIRECT LABOR, VARIABLE MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD and FIXED MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD in which direct materials, direct labor and variable manufacturing overhead are Variable expense which means that if the production increases from $40,000 to $45,000 the total manufacturing cost will as well INCREASE but due to the FIXED MANUFACTURING COST involved , the unit manufacturing cost will have to decrease.
Vextra Corporation is considering the purchase of new equipment costing $38,000.The projected annual cash inflow is $11,600, to be received at the end of each year.The machine has a useful life of 4 years and no salvage value.Vextra requires a 12% return on its investments.The present value of an annuity of $1 for different periods follows:Periods 12 Percent1 0.89292 1.69013 2.40184 3.0373What is the net present value of the machine (rounded to the nearest whole dollar)?a. $(35,233).b. $(2,767).c. $38,000.d. $(3,700).e. $5,233.
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

Blart Corp. recently paid a dividend of $5.00 per share. Analysts forecast future dividends will increase by 2% forever. The required rate of return that investors demand to hold Blart Corp.'s stock is 8% What is its estimated price per share today
Answer: $85.0
Explanation:
The formula to calculate the estimated price per share today will be:
Po = Do (1 + g) / (r - g)
Where,
Po = Current price
Do = Current dividend = 5.00
g = Dividend growth = 2% = 0.02
r = Required rate of return = 8% = 0.08
Therefore, the estimated price per share today will be:
= 5.00(1 + 0.02) / (0.08 - 0.02)
= 5.00(1.02) / 0.06
= 5.10 / 0.06
= 85.00
Therefore, the answer is $85
A shortcoming of real gross domestic product (GDP) is it does not include the underground economy. includes nonmarket goods. does not measure changes in employment. does not include the value obtained through purchases of stocks and bonds. does not account for changes in the prices of goods and services.
Answer:
it does not include the underground economy.
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export

Rocky Guide Service provides guided 1–5 day hiking tours throughout the Rocky Mountains. Wilderness Tours hires Rocky to lead various tours that Wilderness sells. Rocky receives $1,600 per tour day, and shortly after the end of each month Rocky learns whether it will receive a $160 bonus per tour day it guided during the previous month if its service during that month received an average evaluation of "excellent" by Wilderness customers. The $1,600 per day and any bonus due are paid in one lump payment shortly after the end of each month.
On July 1, based on prior experience, Rocky estimated there is a 40% chance it will earn the bonus for July tours. It guided a total of 10 days from July 1–July 15.
On July 16, based on Rocky’s view that it had provided excellent service during the first part of the month, Rocky revised its estimate to an 90% chance it would earn the bonus for July tours. Rocky also guided customers for 15 days from July 16–July 31.
On August 5 Rocky learned it did not receive an average evaluation of "excellent" for its July tours, so it would not receive any bonus for July, and received all payment due for the July tours.
Rocky bases estimates of variable consideration on the expected value it expects to receive.
Required:
Prepare the journal entries to record the transactions above.
Answer:
Please find the complete question in the attached file.
Explanation:
Rocky believed there would be a [tex]30\%[/tex] possibility of a July bonus for touring, i.e [tex]< 50\%[/tex], from July 1-July 15 (10 days)-. Therefore no bonus can be calculated as [tex]\$2,400[/tex] / day trip \times 10 days =[tex]\$2,400[/tex] throughout this duration.
The expected 15-day revenues from 16th July – 31st July may well be calculated as [tex]\$2,400 \times 15 \ days = \$36.000.[/tex] Rocky calculated that it would get the bonus [tex]80\%[/tex] of the time. Estimates a [tex]\$240/day\ bonus \times (10\ days + 15\ days) = \$6,000[/tex]
Do you think the licensing process for international medical graduates is an unnecessary hurdle meant to shield U.S. doctors from foreign competition?
Answer:
No licensing is right. Doctors in U.S. are spending more on medical studies than any other country. It is necessary for other country medical students to gain license in order to do practice in the country.
Explanation:
In U.S. doctors are in deficiency so the country cannot completely cease employment for foreign doctors. The country needs to welcome foreign doctors but it is also necessary to safeguard home doctors. If U.S. will not safeguard rights of home country doctors then they will be demotivated and will not be patriotic for the country.

Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Maintenance Costs Machine Hours
January $2,860 320
February 3,160 370
March 3,760 520
April 4,660 670
May 3,360 520
June 5,260 720
To calculate the variable and fixed costs, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (5,260 - 2,860) / (720 - 320)
Variable cost per unit= $6
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 5,260 - (6*720)
Fixed costs= $940
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 2,860 - (6*320)
Fixed costs= $940

Transaction Price When to recognize revenue
a. $908,000 Delivery Time
b. $797,000 30 days' time
c. $462,200 18 months and 24 months' time
Explanation:
a) Data and Analysis:
a. $908,000 Delivery Time
b. $797,000 30 days' time
c. $462,200 18 months and 24 months' time
b) For the goods sold on installment sales, the payments are also deferred. Therefore, the seller does not recognize any gain until installments are received. Since installment sales encompass much longer time periods compared to credit sales, there are no discounts offered for early payments. The seller in an installment sales maintains an ownership interest in the goods sold until the buyer pays the balance due in full.
A large manufacturing firm has been selling on a 3/10, net 30 basis. The firm changes its credit terms to 2/20, net 90. What change might be expected on the balance sheets of its customers?
A. Decreased receivables and increased bank loans
B. Increased receivables and increased bank loans
C. Increased payables and decreased bank loans
D. Increased payables and increased bank loan
Answer: Increased payables and decreased bank loans
Explanation:
It should be noted that 3/10, net 30 simply means when customer pays in 10 days, such person will get a 3% discount, if not the person will have to pay in full within the 30 days.
On the other hand, 2/20, net 90 means that when customer pays in 20 days, such person will get a 2% discount, if not the person will have to pay in full within the 90 days.
Therefore, the change that this will lead to on the balance sheets of its customers will be an increased payables as there'll be more time to make payment for the goods and decreased bank loans.
In the Month of March, Digby received orders of 123 units at a price of $15.00 for their product Deal. Digby uses the accrual method of accounting and offers 30 day credit terms. Digby delivers 123 units in April. They received payment for 62 units in March, and 62 units in April. In the March income statement, how much revenue is recognized on the March income statement from this order
Answer:
The amount of revenue is recognized on the March income statement from this order is $1,845.00.
Explanation:
Accrual accounting can be described as a method of accounting in which revenue or expenses are recorded at the time of the transaction rather than when payment is received or made.
Since this transaction occurred in March, the total revenue of orders of 123 units received in the month of March will be recognized on the March income statement from this order. That is:
Amount of revenue to recognized in March = 123 * $15.00 = $1,845.00
Therefore, the amount of revenue is recognized on the March income statement from this order is $1,845.00.
An increase in the price of rubber coincides with an advance in the technology of tire production. As a result of these two events,a. the demand for tires decreases and the supply of tires increases.b. the demand for tires is unaffected and the supply of tires decreases.c. the demand for tires is unaffected and the supply of tires increases.d. None of the above is necessarily correct. What should be the demand and supply?
Answer:
d
the demand for tires is unaffected and effect on the supply of tires could increase, decrease, or stay the same.
Explanation:
An increase in the price of rubber would lead to an increase in the cost of producing tires. Rubber is an input required in the production of tires.
As a result of the increase in the cost of rubber, the supply of rubber would decrease. This would lead to a leftward shift of the supply curve. Equilibrium price would increase and quantity would decrease
As a result of the advance in technology, there would be an increase in the supply of tires. As a result, the supply curve shifts outward. Equilibrium price would decrease and quantity would increase
Taking these wo effects together, the demand for tires is unaffected and effect on the supply of tire is indeterminate
