A note payable was executed by Sterling Inc. to Miami Finance Company. Sterling Inc. used $768,000 of its accounts receivable as collateral for the loan. The contract provided that Miami would advance 85% of the gross amount of the receivables. Sterling Inc. continues to collect payments for the receivables and the cash from customers is then remitted to the finance company. The cash remitted is first applied to the finance charges, with the remainder applied to principal.

During the first month, customers owing $524,800 paid cash, less sales returns and allowances of $20,480, originally recorded as a refund liability. The finance charge at the end of the first month was $4,480. During the second month, the remaining receivables were collected in full, except for $5,120 off as uncollectible. Final settlement was effected with the finance company, including payment of an additional finance charge of $1,920.

Required:
a. Record the entry for Sterling to record the secured borrowing.
b. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections and (2) the payment to Miami for the first month.

A. 171 days.
B. 222 days.
C. 231 days
D. Less than 100 days.

Answers

Answer:

D. Less than 100 days

Explanation:

Average days inventory = 365 / Inventory turnover rate

But

Inventory turnover rate = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory

Also,

Average inventory = (Beginning inventory + Ending inventory) / 2

= ($62,000 + $18,000) / 2

= $40,000

Inventory turnover rate = $201,000 / $40,000 = 5.025

Average days inventory = 365 / 5.025 = 72.64 days

An investor thought that market interest rates were going to decline. He paid $19,000 for a corporate bond with a face value of $20,000. The bond has an interest rate of 10% per year payable annually. If the investor plans to sell the bond immediately after receiving the 4th interest payment, how much will he have to receive in order to make a return of 14% per year? Solve using:

a. tabulated factors
b. the GOAL SEEK tool on a spreadsheet.

Answers

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

a. In this part, we need to calculate the present worth using the formula to calculate the sale price of the bond.

As the coupon rate = 10% per year

So,

The Annual dividend will = 2000 = 10% x 20,000

19000 = 2000 (P/A, 14%,4) + B(P/F,14%,4)

19000 = 2000 (2.9137) + B (0.592)

Solving for B = Desired sales price of the bond

B = [tex]\frac{19000 - 5827.4}{0.592}[/tex]

B = 22251

b. Part b of this question is to solve using GOAL SEEK feature of a spreadsheet so, I have attached it in the attachment. Please refer to the attachment for the solution of part b.

When using a physical-volume measure, what is the approximate amount of joint costs that will be allocated to cream and liquid skim

Answers

Question Completion:

Production:

Cream = 443,000 gallons

Liquid skim = 354,500 gallons

Total production = 797,500 gallons

Answer:

The approximate amount of joint costs that will be allocated to cream and liquid skim =

Cream = $1,305,392

Liquid skim = $1,044,608

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Direct materials purchased = 820,000 gallons

Total yield at split-off = 797,500

Joint costs = $2,350,000

                                        Cream       Liquid Skim  

Sales units at split-off   424,000     344,500 gallons

Selling price per unit          $130            $115

Production Cream       443,000     354,500 gallons

Allocation of joint costs, using a physical volume measure:

Cream = $2,350,000 * 443,000/797,500 = $1,305,392

Liquid Skim = $2,350,000 * 354,500/797,500 = $1,044,608

Chen Company's Small Motor Division manufactures a number of small motors used in household and office appliances. The Household Division of Chen then assembles and packages such items as blenders and juicers. Both divisions are free to buy and sell any of their components internally or externally. The following costs relate to small motor LN233 on a per unit basis.
Fixed cost per unit $5.20
Variable cost per unit $10.81
Selling price per unit $34.55
Assuming that the Small Motor Division has excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of small motor LN233 to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Minimum transfer price $ per unit
Assuming that the Small Motor Division does not have excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of the small motor to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

1. If the small motor division has excess capacity,

Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost

Variable cost per unit = $10.81

Add:

Opportunity cost per unit = $0.00 (Because the company has sufficient excess capacity)

Minimum transfer price = $10.81

2. If the small motor division has excess capacity,

Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost

Variable cost per unit = $10.81

Add:

Opportunity cost per unit = $23.74 (As the company has no excess capacity, contribution lost is the opportunity cost)

Minimum transfer price = $34.55

N.B

Contribution lost = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $34,55 - $10.8 = $23.74

Answers

Answer:

Production= 455,000 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning Inventory= 81,000

Ending Inventory= 51,000

Sales= 485,000

To calculate the production required for the period, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production= 485,000 + 51,000 - 81,000

Production= 455,000 units

Mt Kinley is a strategy consulting firm that divides its consultants into three classes, associates, managers, and partners. The firm has been stable in size for the last 20 years, ignoring growth opportunities in the 90s, but also not suffering from a need to down-size in the recession. Specifically, there have been – and are expected to be – 200 associates, 60 managers, and 20 partners. The work environment at Mt Kinley is rather competitive. After 4 years of working as an associate, a consultant goes "either up or out", i.e. becomes a manager or is dismissed from the company. Similarly, after 6 years a manager either becomes a partner or is dismissed. The company recruits MBAs as associate consultants, no hires are made at the manager or partner level. A partner stays with the company for another 10 years (total of 20 years with the company). How many new MBA graduates does Mt Kinley have to hire every year? What is the probability that an incoming MBA graduate would make partner at Mt Kinley?

Answers

Answer:

1. 50 consultants per year

2. 4%

Explanation:

1. Calculation to determine How many new MBA graduates does Mt Kinley have to hire every year

Using this formula

Flow Rate of associates= Inventory / Flow Time

Let plug in the formula

Flow Rate of associates = 200 consultants / 4 years

Flow Rate of associates= 50 consultants per year

Therefore the numbers of MBA graduates that Mt Kinley have to hire every year is 50 consultants per year

2. Calculation to determine the probability that an incoming MBA graduate would make partner at Mt Kinley

First step is to calculate the Flow Rate of managers using this formula

Flow Rate of manager= Inventory / Flow Time

Let plug in the formula

Flow Rate of manager = 60 consultants / 6 years

Flow Rate of manager =10 consultants per year

Second step is to calculate the flow rate of partner using this formula

Flow rate of partner = Inventory/ Flow time

Let plug in the formula

Flow rate of partner = 20/10

Flow rate of partner = 2 partners per year

Third step is to calculate the probability of becoming a manager

Probability (Manager) = 10/50

Probability (Manager) = 20%

Fourth step is to calculate Probability of becoming a partner

Probability (Partner) = 2/10

Probability (Partner) = 20%

Now let calculate the probability that an incoming MBA graduate would make partner at Mt Kinley

Probability of MBA graduate becoming a partner = 20% x 20%

Probability of MBA graduate becoming a partner = 4%

Therefore the probability that an incoming MBA graduate would make partner at Mt Kinley is 4%

A truck was acquired on July 1, 2018, at a cost of $311,850. The truck had a six-year useful life and an estimated salvage value of $34,650. The straight-line method of depreciation was used. On January 1, 2021, the truck was overhauled at a cost of $28,875, which extended the useful life of the truck for an additional two years beyond that originally estimated (salvage value is still estimated at $34,650). In computing depreciation for annual adjustment purposes, expense is calculated for each month the asset is owned.

II. Manager B reduced sales revenues by 4% when informed of recent aggressive actions by a new competitor.
III. Manager C, who supervises employees with widely varying skill levels, used the highest wage rate in the department when preparing the labor budget.
Assuming that the percentage amounts given are reasonable, which of the preceding cases is (are) an example of building slack in budgets?
a. Il only.
b. I only.
c. II and III.
d. Ill only
e. I and II.

Answers

Answer:

Assuming that the percentage amounts given are reasonable, an example of building slack in budgets is:

d. Ill only

Explanation:

By using the highest wage rate in the department, Manager C deliberately overestimated her departmental expenses.  However, her action is dictated by the need to ensure that there are no budget shortages for wages.  By this slack, the actual performance of the department will be better than the budgeted performance because the department will likely spend less than its allotted costs.

The cases that represent an example of the building slacks in budgets should be option III.

Usage of highest wage rate:

Here we use the high wage rate with respect to the department. Also, the manager c should be overestimated the department expenses. The action should be dictated via the need for assurance that there should no shortages with respect to the wages. Also, the actual performance should be more than the budgeted performance since the department should lower than it

Point Company uses the standard costing method. The company's product normally takes 0.25 hour to produce. Normal annual capacity is 3,000 direct labor hours, and budgeted fixed overhead costs for the year were $6,750. During the year, the company produced and sold 8,000 units. Actual fixed overhead costs were $4,800. Compute the fixed overhead variance.

Answers

Answer:

the fixed overhead variance is $1,660 (favorable)

Explanation:

The fixed overhead variance results from Fixed Overhead Expenditure (Spending) variance and Fixed Overhead Volume variance.

Expenditure Variance = Actual Fixed Overheads - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

                                     = $4,800 - $6,750

                                     = $1,950 (favorable)

Volume Variance = Budgeted overhead at actual activity - Budgeted fixed overhead

                              = ($6,750 ÷ 3,000/0.25) x 8,000 units - $4,800

                              = $300 (unfavorable)

Total Variance = Expenditure Variance + Volume Variance

                         = $1,950 (favorable) + $300 (unfavorable)

                         = $1,660 (favorable)

Conclusion :

the fixed overhead variance is $1,660 (favorable)

The total fixed overhead variance is $1,660 Favorable.

Here, we will calculate the expenditure and volume variance to enable us derive the total fixed overhead variance.

Expenditure Variance = Actual Fixed Overheads - Budgeted Fixed

Expenditure Variance = $4,800 - $6,750

Expenditure Variance = $1,950 Favorable

Volume Variance = Budgeted overhead at actual activity - Budgeted fixed overhead

Volume Variance = ($6,750 / (3,000/0.25)) * 8,000 units - $4,800

Volume Variance = $4500 Favorable - $4,800 Unfavorable

Volume Variance = $300 Unfavorable

Total Variance = Expenditure Variance + Volume Variance

Total Variance = $1,950 Favorable + $300 Unfavorable

Total Variance = $1,660 Favorable

Therefore, the total fixed overhead variance is $1,660 Favorable.
