Feliciano Manufacturing Corporation has a traditional costing system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to its products using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours (DLHs). The company has two products, I63E and E76I, about which it has provided the following data: I63E E76I Direct materials per unit $ 21.70 $ 65.10 Direct labor per unit $ 19.50 $ 58.50 Direct labor-hours per unit 0.80 2.40 Annual production (units) 90,000 30,000
The company's estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year is $2,063,250 and the company's estimated total direct labor-hours for the year is 45,000.
The company is considering using a form of activity-based costing to determine its unit product costs for external reports. Data for this proposed activity-based costing system appear below:
Activities and Activity Measures Estimated
Overhead Cost
Assembling products (DLHs) $ 720,000
Preparing batches (batches) 263,250
Product support (product variations) 1,080,000
Total $ 2,063,250
Expected Activity
I63E E76I Total
DLHs 24,000 21,000 45,000
Batches 1,080 675 1,755
Product variations 2,115 1,485 3,600
The manufacturing overhead that would be applied to a unit of product E76I under the activity-based costing system is closest to:________.
Answer:
Unitary cost= $30.91
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activities rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Assembling products= 720,000/45,000= $16 per DLH
Preparing batches= 263,250/1,755= $150 per batch
Product support= 1,080,000/3,600= $330 per product variation
Now, we allocate costs to Product E76l:
Assembling products= 16*21,000= $336,000
Preparing batches= 150*675= $101,250
Product support= 330*1,485= $490,050
Total= $927,300
Finally, the unitary cost:
Unitary cost= 927,300 / 30,000
Unitary cost= $30.91
Feedback is important in improving your performance, and we should solicit feedback, and not just wait until someone provides us with feedback. Group of answer choices
a. True
b. False
Answer:
The given statement is "True".
Explanation:
Feedback would be a significant aspect in improving the accomplishment or organization's success.Requesting or waiting for such feedback might contribute to less and less input, although the organization must request for input, this same person might communicate with the organization by requesting comments.Thus the above is the correct answer.
A popular hotel has continued to lose business in its room service food sales over the last five years. Using the Six Sigma DMAIC process explain what you would do in each step of the process to improve the sales - provide relevant, practical details. What statistics would you apply and why?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Using the Six Sigma DMAIC process, I will explain what I would do in each step of the process to improve the sales.
DMAIC stands for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and control.
What I would do first is, of course, define the nature of the problem. To define exactly what is the root of the drop in sales in the hotel. That would allow me to establish proper goals and define a strategy to implement. If a need to do surveys to customers or unsatisfied clients, I would do that. Listening to customer feedback would provide the necessary information.
Then, I have to measure the performance of my employees. Monitoring and evaluate the productivity of the people who work in the organization.
I have to analyze if the productivity ratio of each employee to know if they are performing to the maximum of their capabilities.
In this case, I could use a Pareto chart or the 80-20 rule, to assess productivity in the company.
I have to pay attention to the causes of poor performance and poor quality service. There is an interesting analysis called Root Cause Analysis (RCA) that can be useful in this case.
Once identified and eliminated the root or causes of the problems, then it comes de Improve the process to enhance the performance in every area of the organization. I would have to get people on the same page and focus on one problem at a time to doing things right.
Another model that could be useful in this scenario would be Design of Experiments, commonly known as DOE, which helps resolve complex issues
Finally, the control of everything implementation and solution to confirm it has been established the right way with the desired results. This could be part of the continuing Quality Control process- The poke yoke system would be a good option to be contemplated.
Because there isn't one single measure of inflation, the government and researchers use a variety of methods to get the most balanced picture of how prices fluctuate in the economy. Two of the most commonly used price indexes are the consumer price index (CPI) and the GDP deflator.
The CPI for this year is calculated by dividing thecost of a given market basket of goods and services using this year’s prices by thevalue of all goods and services produced in the economy this year using the base year’s prices and multiplying by 100. However, the GDP deflator reflects only the prices of all goods and services produced domestically. Indicate whether each scenario will affect the GDP deflator or the CPI for the United States. Check all that apply.
a. A decrease in the price of a Waterman Industries deep-water reel, which is a commercial fishing product used for deep-sea fishing
b. An increase in the price of a Japanese-made television that is popular among U.S. consumers
Answer:
GDP deflator
CPI
Explanation:
The consumer price index measures the changes in price of a basket of good. It is used to measure inflation. Basket of goods includes goods produced within the country and outside the country.
CPI = (cost of basket of goods in current period / cost of basket of goods in base period) x 100
An increase in the price of a Japanese-made television that is popular among U.S. consumers will increase CPI
GDP deflator = (nominal GDP / real GDP) x 100
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.
A decrease in the price of a Waterman Industries deep-water reel, which is a commercial fishing product used for deep-sea fishing will decrease GDP deflator
Prosecutors representing the Securities and Exchange Commission recentlyannounced criminal charges against 13 individuals for engaging in insidertrading. According to the SECs director of enforcement, a trading ring acting on inside information compromises the marketsintegrity and investorstrust. . . . Explain why.
Answer and Explanation:
Insider trading compromises the integrity of the market because insider investors have non-public information about the stocks of the company that could very much impact the value of the stock of the company. In other words, an insider knows what the public doesn't know about a company and it allows him an unfair advantage to trade the stocks of the company using this information and make large unusual profit. This could lead to market collapse as investors are no longer encouraged to invest seeing that they can't trust that the market is transparent and trustworthy(they don't have all the important information that would affect the company)
It has been said that Earned Value Management (EVM) came about because the Federal Government often used "Cost-plus" contractors with project organizations. Cost-plus contracting allows the contractor to recover full project development costs plus accumulate profit from these contracts. Why would requiring contractor firms to employ earned value management help the government hold the line against project cost overruns?
Answer:
Earned Value Management (EVM)
The Federal Government requires contractor firms to employ earned value management because it enables it to assess the work that has been completed against an established baseline plan in terms of technical, time, and cost performance.
Armed with this information, it is in a better position to make important project decisions and help to control over-spending.
Explanation:
Earned value management (EVM) as a integrated project management methodology details the project time schedule, costs, and scope to ensure correct measurement of project performance. Using planned and actual values, EVM enables future predictions, improving the ability of project managers to adjust according to requirements.

A direct cost can be regarded as price which can be tied directly to manufacture of particular goods or services. Direct and indirect costs can be regarded as two major types of costs that can be incurred by companies. Direct costs are been regarded as variable costs often, i.e this cost could fluctuate as q result of production levels like inventory.
Black Diamond Company produces snow skis . Each ski requires 2 pounds of carbon fiber . The company's management predicts that 6,000 skis and 7,000 pounds of carbon fiber will be in inventory on June 30 of the current year and that 160.000 will be sold during the next ( third ) quarter . A set of two skis sells for $ 400 . Management wants to end the third quarter with 4,500 skis and 5,000 pounds of carbon fiber in inventory . Carbon fiber can be purchased for $ 25 per pound Each ski requires 0.5 hours of direct labor at $ 30 per hour . Variable overhead is applied at the rate of $ 18 per direct labor hour . The company budgets fixed overhead of $ 1,792,000 for the quarter . Required : 1. Prepare the third - quarter production budget for skis .
Answer:
158,500
Explanation:
Preparation of the third - quarter production budget for skis .
BLACK DIAMOND COMPANY Production Budget (in units)Third Quarter
Budgeted ending inventory (skis) 4,500
Add budgeted sale 160,000
Required units of available production 164,500
(4500+160,000)
Deduct beginning inventory (skis) (6,000)
Units to be manufactured 158,500
(164,500-6,000)
Therefore the third - quarter production budget for skis is 158,500
At an activity level of 6,000 units the cost for maintenance is $7,200 and at 10,000 units the cost for maintenance is $11,600. Using the high-low method, the cost formula for maintenance is: Group of answer choices
Answer:
y = $1.10x + $600
Explanation:
Step 1 : Variable Cost calculation
Variable Cost = ($11,600 - $7,200) ÷ (10,000 - 6,000)
= $1.10
Step 2 : Fixed Cost calculation
Total cost = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost
hence,
Fixed Cost = Total Cost - Variable Cost
= $11,600 - (10,000 x $1.10)
= $600
Step 3 : Cost formula for maintenance
Total cost = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost
therefore,
y = $1.10x + $600
where,
y = Total cost
x = Activity level
Using the high-low method, the cost formula for maintenance is : y = $1.10x + $600
Leonard is creating disaster recovery documents for his company's online operations. He is documenting metrics for a measurable SLA that outlines when you can expect operations to be back online and how much data loss can be tolerated when recovering from an outage. Which metrics is he documenting
Answer:
RTO, RPO
Explanation:
Recovery point objective (RPO)
This simply measures the amount of data that may be lost in real sense due to system failure. It covers the volumes of files that must be gotten back from backup storage so as the normal operations can start agai (data loss)
RTO (recovery time objective)
This is simply regarded as the amount or the timelind by which a business process must be put in place or restored after a disaster occurs.(downtime). It is the time limit at most that is taken to put in place or restore an organization's information system following a disaster occurrence, In layman term is how much time do we have to get everything up and working again.

Renee paid $4,000 in mortgage interest on a $110,000 mortgage that was taken out when she bought her home several years ago. She also has a home equity loan of $130,000 that she used to pay for a cruise around the world. The interest on the home equity loan was $8,000. What amount is deductible as interest expense for Renee in 2021
Answer:
The amount that is deductible as interest expense for Renee in 2021 is:
= $4,000.
Explanation:
a) Data:
Home mortgage - $110,000
Interest on home mortgage = $4,000
Home equity loan for a cruise around the world = $130,000
Interest on the home equity loan = $8,000
Deductible interest expense for Renee in 2021 is $4,000
b) Usually, the interest expenses that a taxpayer pays on her home equity loan to enjoy a cruise around the world, on personal credit card, on automobile loan, and on other types of personal consumer finance interests are not tax-deductible.
Fort Thomas Living is a small publishing company located in the Northern Kentucky. Recently, Fort Thomas Living has contracted with several different local writers to publish various magazines and short-story books. Once such transaction involves an exchange of $10,200. Another transaction involves an exchange of $9,600? Are both of these exchanges of money subject to the disclosure requirements of the Money Laundering Control Act?
Answer: No
Explanation:
The Money Laundering Control Act of 1986 which was passed to curb the effects of large scale money laundering at the federal level, only requires that transactions above $10,000 be disclosed.
There is a transaction here that is only to the tune of $9,600 so this will not be disclosed as it is less than the $10,000 threshold. The other transaction of $10,200 will however, be disclosed.
As of December 31, 2019, Nilsen Industries had $2,000 of raw materials inventory. At the beginning of 2019, there was $1,600 of materials on hand.

How much inventory was requisitioned for use on jobs during 2019? a. $354,400b. $344,400c. $343,600d. $353,600
Answer:
d. $353,600
Explanation:
The computation of the inventory requisitioned for use on jobs during 2019 is shown below;
= OPening inventory + purchase made - ending inventory
= $1,600 + $354,000 - $2,000
= $353,600
Hence, the inventory requisitioned for use on jobs during 2019 is $353,600
Therefore the option d is correct
Future pension liabilities are estimated based on all of the following except a.expected employee compensation levels. b.federal withholding income tax. c.employee life expectancy. d.employee turnover.
Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
The correct option is B. - federal withholding income tax.
Pension liability is the amount of money that a company or government at any level(federal or state) has to account for in order to make future pension payments. It is a future payment that a company or government is obligated to pay its retired employees.
They take into considerations:
1. Their employees turnover
2. Their employees life expectancy
3. Their employees compensation level.
Federal tax level is not the issue because the payment is futuristic and federal tax can change.

b. Asset turnover for 2019 = 0.29 times
c. Return on assets = 10.24%
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is thereore provided before answering the question as follows:
The following information was taken from the income statement and balance sheet of The Perryman Company for the years 2018 and 2019:
2019 2018
Sales revenues $590,000 $574,000
Net income 212,000 184,000
Total assets 2,142,000 1,998,000
Total stockholders’ equity 712,000 690,000
Compute the following ratios for 2019:
Net profit margin
Asset turnover
Return on assets
The answers are now explained as follows:
a. Net profit margin for 2019
This can be calculated as follows:
Net profit margin for 2019 = Net income in 2019 / Sales revenues in 2019 = $212,000 / $590,000 = 0.3593, or 35.93%
b. Asset turnover for 2019
This can be calculated as follows:
Asset turnover for 2019 = Sales revenues / Average total assets = Sales revenues in 2019 / ((Total assets in 2019 + Total assets in 2018) / 2) = $590,000 / (($2,142,000 + $1,998,000) / 2) = 0.29 times
c. Return on assets for 2019
This can be calculated as follows:
Return on assets = Net income / Average total assets = Net income in 2019 / ((Total assets in 2019 + Total assets in 2018) / 2) = $212,000 / (($2,142,000 + $1,998,000) / 2) = 0.1024, or 10.24%

Explanation:
As a manager, you are trying to decide how to best layoff 10% of your workforce. You are considering laying off the 10% who are the oldest in age, because you feel that they are closest to retirement anyway. Which of the following types of justice would you most likely violate the rules of by doing this?
A. Distributive
B. Procedural
C. Interpersonal
D. Informational
Answer:
B. Procedural
Explanation:
Remember, the procedural type of justice focuses on identifying the best way to treat others in a fair way, such as following the adhering to the rule of no bias when administering justice.
In this scenario, if the manager decides to select and lay off 10% of his workforce based on their age range, he would be unintentionally displaying an age bias in his selection process, which of course most likely violates the rules of this type of justice.

Dishwashers $8,000-$500=$7,500 4 $1,875
($7,500/4=$1,875)
Total $33,000 $4,500 $28,500 $5,675
Now let determine the group depreciation rate, group life, and depreciation for 2016.
Calculation for group depreciation rate using this formula
Group Depreciation Rate = Total depreciation per year ÷ Total original cost
Let plug in the formula
Group depreciation rate = $5,675 ÷ $33,000*100
Group depreciation rate= 17.197%
Calculation for Group life using this formula
Group life = Total depreciation cost ÷ Total depreciation per year
Let plug in the formula
Group life = $28,500 ÷ $5,675
Group life = 5.02 years
Calculation for Depreciation for 2016 using this formula
Depreciation for 2016= Original Cost × Group Depreciation Rate
Let plug in the formula
Depreciation for 2016 = $33,000 × 0.17197
Depreciation for 2016= $5,675
Therefore the group depreciation rate is 17.197%, group life is 5.02 years, and depreciation for 2016 is $5,675

In order to update a production process, a company can spend money now or four years from now. If the amount now would be $20,000, what equivalent amount could the company spend four years from now at a compound interest rate of 15% per year?(All the alternatives presented below were calculated using compound interest factor tables including all decimal places
Answer: $34,980.13
Explanation:
The amount that the company will spend 4 years from now is simply the future value of the amount that it can spend today.
The amount to be spent today is $20,000 so the amount to be spent 4 years from now is the future value of $20,000:
= Amount * (1 + rate) ^ number of years
= 20,000 * ( 1 + 15%)⁴
= $34,980.13

Several years ago, Castles in the Sand Inc. issued bonds at face value of $1,000 at a yield to maturity of 8%. Now, with 7 years left until the maturity of the bonds, the company has run into hard times and the yield to maturity on the bonds has increased to 12%. What is the price of the bond now
Answer:
$814.10
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what the price of the bond now
Using this formula
Bond price = PV of coupon payments + PV of face value
Bond price= C×((1 / r) – {1 / [r(1 + r)t]}) + FV / (1 + r)t
Let plug in the formula
Bond price= [(.080 ×$1,000) / 2] ×[[1 / (.12 / 2)] – (1 / {(.12 / 2)[1 + (.12 / 2)](7 ×2)})] + $1,000 / [1 + (.12 / 2)](7 ×2)
Bond price= $814.10
Therefore the price of the bond now is $814.10
