On August 1, Lola Company’s assets are $30,000 and its liabilities are $10,000. On August 4, Lola issues a sustainability report. On August 5, ownership invests $3,000 cash and $7,000 of equipment in Lola. After the investment, what is the amount of equity for Lola?
Answer: $30,000
Explanation:
Before the investment, Equity was:
= Assets - Liabilities
= 30,000 - 10,000
= $20,000
The owner then invested $3,000 and $7,000 therefore making a total of $10,000.
Equity becomes
= 20,000 + 10,000
= $30,000
The equity is $30,000
Lola's company assets are $30,000
The liabilities are $10,000
Equity= $30,000-$10,000
= $20,000
On August 5, ownership invests $3,000 in cash and $7,000 in equipment
= $3,000+$7,000
= $10,000
The amount of equity for Lola is
= $20,000+$10,000
= $30,000

Suppose there are three factories in Macroland and the following occurred in 2019: Metal, plastic and a car factory. Metal factory produces $200, plastic factory produces $500, and car factory produces $700, of its respective products. The metal factory sells all of its output to the car factory. The plastic factory sells $80 worth of plastic to the car factory, $20 to the government, and the rest to consumers. The Car factory exports $50 of its cars and sells the rest to consumers.
Required:
What is the GDP of Macroland in 2019?
Answer:
$1120
Explanation:
The computation of the GDP is shown below:
Y = C + I + G + X
Here Y denotes the GDP
C denotes the consumption = $500 - $80 - $20 = $400 and 700 - 50 = $650
I denotes the investment = $
G denotes the government purchase = $20
X denotes the net exports = $50
So,
Y = $400 + $650 + 0 + $20 + $50
= $1120

a. A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $290,000 and have a useful life of four years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $83,653 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $11,000.
b. A machine costs $200,000, has a $15,000 salvage value, is expected to last eleven years, and will generate an after-tax income of $46,000 per year after straight-line depreciation.
Answer:
1.89 years
3.18 years
Explanation:
Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows
Payback period = Amount invested / cash flow
Cash flow = net income + depreciation
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
(290,000 -11,000) / 4 = 69,750
Cash flow = $83,653 + 69,750 = 153,403
Payback = $290,000 / 153,403 = 1.89
(200,000 - 15,000) / 11 = 16,818.18
Cash flow = $46,000 + 16,818.18 = 62,818.18
Payback = 200,000 / 62,818.18 = 3.18

Answer:
Susan
The maximum amount of Susan's investment interest expense deduction for the current year if she decides to give up the capital gain preferential treatment is:
= $46,500.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Investment interest expense = $58,500

Hatch has a standard of 2.2 hours of labor per unit, at $10.70 per hour. In producing 1,640 units, Hatch used 3,900 hours of labor at a total cost of $40,400. What is Hatch's total labor variance
Answer: $1,794.40 Unfavorable
Explanation:
Total labor variance = Actual cost of labor - Standard cost of labor
Actual cost of labor = $40,400
Standard cost of labor = Hours per unit * Cost per hour * Number of units
= 2.2 * 10.70 * 1,640
= $38,605.60
Total labor variance = 40,400 - 38,605.60
= $1,794.40 Unfavorable
Unfavorable because actual cost of labor was greater than the standard cost.
SureLock Manufacturing Co. makes and sells several models of locks. The cost records for the ZForce lock show that manufacturing costs total $19.62 per lock. An analysis of this amount indicates that $11.90 of the total cost has a variable cost behavior pattern, and the remainder is an allocation of fixed manufacturing overhead. The normal selling price of this model is $29.00 per lock. A chain store has offered to buy 14,000 ZForce locks from SureLock at a price of $15.75 each to sell in a market that would not compete with SureLock’s regular business. SureLock has manufacturing capacity available and could make these locks without incurring additional fixed manufacturing overhead.
Required:
a. Calculate the effect on SureLock’s operating income of accepting the order from the chain store.
b. If SureLock’s costs had not been classified by cost behavior pattern, is it likely that a correct special order analysis would have been made? Explain your answer.
c. Identify the key qualitative factors that SureLock managers should consider with respect to this special order decision.
Answer:
a. $53900
Explanation:
a. the effect on surelocks operating income
$15.75 - $11.9
= $3.85*14000 zforce locks
= $53900
the operating income has risen by 53900 dolars
b. the correct special order analysis can only come in if the the actual cost that was made on the special order was stated. If not the decison cannot be tken rightly given that the total cost and the fixed manufacturing cost is higher than that of the special order price for selling. the special order is not going to be accepted given this reason. So a correct special order analysis would not be made.
c. the key qualitative factors are
selling cost for each lock for this special order and also the variable costs.
Bothell Company uses a job order costing system that allocates estimated overhead as 40% of prime costs. What is the cost of a job that required direct materials of $2,000 and direct labor of $5,200
Answer:
$10,080
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of the job is shown below:
We know that
prime cost = direct material + Direct labor
= $2,000 + $5,200
= $,7200
Now overhead is
= 40% of $7200
= $2,880
And,
Cost of job = direct material + Direct labor + overhead
= $2,000 + $5,200 + $2,880

In 2010 the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) reported that nonfinancial companies in the United States had around $2 trillion in cash and short-term liquid assets. As the U.S. economy was still struggling, consumer spending remained low, and companies resisted in investing in new projects that would create value for their stakeholders.
As the economy improves, uncertainty in the markets decreases, and companies will start investing in projects. However, the challenge of analyzing and selecting projects that would generate cash flows and returns and add value to the firm would remain.
The assumptions in the analysis about cost of equity and debt—overall and for projects—have a significant impact on the type and the value of investments that a company makes.
According to the Association of Finance Professionals’ report, published in 2011 on current trends in estimating and applying the cost of capital, companies use a discount rate that is usually above or below 1% of the company’s true rate. Using this information and certain inputs from the Fed, Michael Jacobs and Anil Shivdasani estimated that a 1% drop in the cost of capital leads U.S. companies to increase their investment by about $150 million over three years.
Based on your understanding of the concept of cost of capital, which of the following statements are valid?
a. Companies always use the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) as the discount rate to analyze the financial viability of projects.
b. A company’s estimate of cost of capital impacts its application in the analysis of new investments that, consequently, affects the value of the firm and shareholders’ wealth.
c. Investors care about the incremental value addition that new projects are making; they are least concerned with the discount rates that the company uses.
d. Companies incorporate the required rate of return in the cost of capital to compensate investors for the components’ risks.
Answer:
b. A company’s estimate of cost of capital impacts its application in the analysis of new investments that, consequently, affects the value of the firm and shareholders’ wealth. d. Companies incorporate the required rate of return in the cost of capital to compensate investors for the components’ risks.Explanation:
A company's estimate of cost of capital, is serious because it is used in the calculations of the returns from a new investment which is used to calculate the value of the firm and its shareholders. They therefore need to make these estimates as accurate as possible.
Companies also incorporate the required rate of return in the cost of capital so that the investors who provided this capital, can be ensured of a return on their investment because it would be accounted for in analysis of new investments.

Brandy’s Restaurant estimates that its total cost of providing Q meals per month is given by TC = 6,000 + 2 Q. If Brandy charges $4 per meal, what is its break-even level of output?
Answer: 3,000 meals
Explanation:
The 6,000 in this total cost formula represents the fixed costs of providing the Q meals per month.
The 2 represents the variable cost.
If a meal is $4, that means that the Contribution margin is:
= 4 - 2
= $2 per meal
The break-even level of output is:
= Fixed cost / Contribution margin per meal
= 6,000 / 2
= 3,000 meals
Jamie is single. In 2020, she reported $108,000 of taxable income, including a long-term capital gain of $5,800. What is her gross tax liability
Answer:Jamie's gross tax liability is $19,572.50
Explanation:
Since Jamie is single with taxable income of $108,000 which includes $5,800 long term capital gain.
Therefore $102,200 (108,000 -5,800) will be taxed under normal tax rates and $5,800 would be under long term capital gain tax rate.
With regards the 2020 tax schedule, Since her ordinary income is $102,200, Jamie falls under 24% rate tax bracket under filing for single status.
qd
Tax liability on ordinary income =$14,382.50 plus 24% of any income you made above $84,200
14,382.50 + 0.24 (102,200 - 84,200)
14,382.50 + 0.24 x 18000
= 14,382.50 + 4,320
= $18,702.50
Also, according to her income, longterm capital gain tax applicable in 2020 is 15%
Tax on long term capital gain = 5,800 × 0.15
= $870
Jamie's gross tax liability is $18,702.50 + 870 = $19,572.50
