Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $10.6 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Car Truck
Estimated wheels produced 36,000 11,000
Direct labor hours per wheel 1 3
Total estimated overhead costs for the two product lines are $731,400.
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 731,400 / (1*36,000 + 3*11,000)
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $10.6 per direct labor hour
One thousand adults live in Milltown. Every day, they all leave work at 4:30 p.m., arrive home at exactly 5:00 p.m., and go to bed at 9:00 p.m. Three fundraisers, Alpha, Beta, and Charlie, have targeted Milltown's population. To get a donation, they must call Milltown's residents after they get home from work but before they go to bed. Because the charities raising the funds are identical, the first to call a willing donor will get the donation. Beta's manager has decided that the best time to call is 7:00 p.m. because it is exactly halfway between 5:00 p.m. and bedtime. Which of the following is true?
a. Alpha and Charlie will also make calls at 7:00 p.m.
b. Beta's manager did not choose wisely.
c. Alpha and Charlie will divide up the rest of the market, with one choosing to call at 6:00 p.m. and the other at 8:00 p.m.
d. Beta is certain to generate the most donations.
Answer:
b. Beta's manager did not choose wisely.
Explanation:
If you know that you are competing with identical charities, calling later will only result in fewer donations. The calls should start at 5 PM, and probably the three fundraisers will start calling at the same time. The only advantage that they can have depends on reaching the adults first, so the time of the calls is important.
Crane, Inc. manufactures two products: missile range instruments and space pressure gauges. During April, 50 range instruments and 200 pressure gauges were produced, and overhead costs of $72,750 were estimated. An analysis of estimated overhead costs reveals the following activities. Activities Cost Drivers Total Cost 1. Materials handling Number of requisitions $30,000 2. Machine setups Number of setups 23,750 3. Quality inspections Number of inspections 19,000 $72,750 The cost driver volume for each product was as follows. Cost Drivers Instruments Gauges Total Number of requisitions 375 625 1,000 Number of setups 175 300 475 Number of inspections 225 250 475
Answer:
Requirement: Determine the overhead rate for each activity "Materials handling, Machine setups, Quality inspections"
Materials handling overhead rate = Total cost / Cost driver volume
Materials handling overhead rate = $30,000 / 1,000
Materials handling overhead rate = $30
Machine setups overhead rate = Total cost / Cost driver volume
Machine setups overhead rate = $23,750 / 475
Machine setups overhead rate = $50
Quality inspections overhead rate = Total cost / Cost driver volume
Quality inspections overhead rate = $19,000 / 475
Quality inspections overhead rate = $40
Foods Galore is a major distributor to restaurants and other institutional food users. Foods Galore buys cereal from a manufacturer for $20.00 per case. Annual demand for cereal is 200,000 cases, and the company believes that the demand is constant at 800 cases per day for each of the 250 days per year that it is open for business. Average lead time from the supplier for replenishment orders is eight days, and the company believes that it is also constant. The purchasing agent at Foods Galore believes that annual inventory carrying cost is 10 percent and that it costs $40.00 to place an order.
How many cases of cereal should Foods Galore order each time it places an order? What is the total annual inventory cost if you order based on your Economic Order Quantity? (Sum of annual product purchasing cost, holding cost, and ordering cost). What is the total annual inventory cost if Foods Galore orders 10,000 each order at $18 per case? (Sum of annual product purchasing cost, holding cost, and ordering cost)
Answer:
The appropriate solution is:
(a) 2828 cases each time
(b) $4005656.85
(c) $3609800
Explanation:
The given values are:
Annual demand,
D = 200,000 cases
Per case cost,
C = $20
Carrying host,
H = [tex]10 \ percent\times 20[/tex]
= $[tex]2[/tex]
Ordering cost,
S = $40
(a)
The economic order quantity will be:
⇒ [tex]Q^*=\sqrt{(\frac{2DS}{H} )}[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
[tex]=\sqrt{[\frac{(2\times 200000\times 40)}{2} ]}[/tex]
[tex]=\sqrt{\frac{16000000}{2} }[/tex]
[tex]=2828[/tex]
(b)
According to the question,
The annual ordering cost will be:
= [tex](\frac{D}{Q^*}) S[/tex]
= [tex](\frac{200000}{2828}) 40[/tex]
= [tex]2828.85[/tex] ($)
The annual carrying cost will be:
= [tex](\frac{Q^*}{2})H[/tex]
= [tex](\frac{2828}{2} )2[/tex]
= [tex]2828[/tex] ($)
The annual purchase cost will be:
= [tex]D\times C[/tex]
= [tex]200000\times 20[/tex]
= [tex]4000000[/tex] ($)
Now,
The total inventory cost will be:
= [tex]2828.85+2828+4000000[/tex]
= [tex]4005656.85[/tex] ($)
(c)
According to the question,
Order quantity,
Q = 10000 cases
Per case cost,
C = $18
Carrying cost,
H = [tex]10 \ percent\times 18[/tex]
= [tex]1.8[/tex]
The annual ordering cost will be:
= [tex](\frac{D}{Q} )S[/tex]
= [tex](\frac{200000}{10000} )40[/tex]
= [tex]800[/tex] ($)
The annual carrying cost will be:
= [tex](\frac{Q}{2} )H[/tex]
= [tex](\frac{10000}{2} )1.8[/tex]
= [tex]9000[/tex] ($)
The annual purchase cost will be:
= [tex]D\times C[/tex]
= [tex]200000\times 18[/tex]
= [tex]3600000[/tex]
Now,
The total cost of inventory will be:
= [tex]800+9000+3600000[/tex]
= [tex]3609800[/tex] ($)
You are analyzing two assets: collectible LEGO sets, and stock of Apple. In the last 5 years, LEGOs have had an annual volatility of 5%, annual return of 6%, and a CAPM beta (the correlation coefficient between the asset and the market risk-premium) of 1.6. Apple has had an annual volatility of 10%, an annual return of 8%, and a CAPM beta of 1.2. Is the following statement true or false?
According to CAPM, Apple has a higher expected return than LEGO.
Answer:
No, Apple has lower rate of return than LEGOs.
Explanation:
Risk free rate is 2% and Market risk is 9%
Expected return can be calculated by :
E(r) = Rf + beta * (Rm - Rf)
E(r) LEGOs = 2 + 1.6 * (9 - 2)
E(r) LEGOs = 13.2%
E(r) Apple = 2 + 1.2 * (9 - 2)
E(r) Apple = 10.4%
An analysis of stockholders' equity of Hahn Corporation as of January 1, 2020, is as follows: Common stock, par value $20; authorized 100,000 shares; issued and outstanding 90,000 shares $1,800,000 Additional Paid-in capital 900,000 Retained earnings 760,000 Total $3,460,000 During 2020, the company entered into the following transactions: Acquired 2,500 shares of its stock for $75,000. Sold 2,000 treasury shares at $35 per share. Sold the remaining treasury shares at $20 per share. Assuming no other equity transactions occurred during 2020, what should Hahn report at December 31, 2020, as total additional paid-in capital?
Answer:
$905,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what should Hahn report at December 31, 2020, as total additional paid-in capital
Total Additional Paid-in capital=$900,000 + (2,000 × $5) –[(2,500-2,000)× $10]
Total Additional Paid-in capital=$900,000 + (2,000 × $5) – (500 × $10)
Total Additional Paid-in capital=$900,000 + $10,000-$5,000
Total Additional Paid-in capital = $905,000
Therefore The amount that Hahn should report at December 31, 2020, as total additional paid-in capital is $905,000
Locomotive Corporation is planning to repurchase part of its common stock by issuing corporate debt. As a result, the firm’s debt–equity ratio is expected to rise from 30 percent to 50 percent. The firm currently has $3.3 million worth of debt outstanding. The cost of this debt is 9 percent per year. Locomotive expects to have an EBIT of $1.32 million per year in perpetuity. Locomotive pays no taxes.
a. What is the market value of Locomotive Corporation before and after the repurchase announcement?
b. What is the expected return on the firm’s equity before the announcement of the stock repurchase plan?
c. What is the expected return on the equity of an otherwise identical all-equity firm?
d. What is the expected return on the firm’s equity after the announcement of the stock repurchase plan?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. What is the market value of Locomotive Corporation before and after the repurchase announcement?
Equity value = Debt value / Debt to equity ratio
= 3,300,000/0.3
= 11,000,000
Market value = Debt value + Equity value
= $3,300,000 + $11,000,000
= $14,300,000
b. What is the expected return on the firm’s equity before the announcement of the stock repurchase plan?
To solve this, we need to know the interest payment first which will be:
= $3,300,000 × 9%
= $3,300,000 × 0.09
= $297000
Return on equity will now be:
= (EBIT - interest) / Equity
= (1320000 - 297000) / 11000000
= 9.30%
c. What is the expected return on the equity of an otherwise identical all-equity firm?
This will be:
= Earnings before Interest / Unlevered firm value
= 1320000 / 14300000
= 9.23%
d. What is the expected return on the firm’s equity after the announcement of the stock repurchase plan?
This will be:
= 9.23% + 50% × (9.23% - 9%)
= 9.35%

Explanation:
Southern Atlantic Distributors began operations in January 2021 and purchased a delivery truck for $40,000. Southern Atlantic plans to use straight-line depreciation over a four-year expected useful life for financial reporting purposes. For tax purposes, the deduction is 45% of cost in 2021, 30% in 2022, and 25% in 2023. Pretax accounting income for 2021 was $460,000, which includes interest revenue of $68,000 from municipal governmental bonds. The enacted tax rate is 25%.
Assuming no differences between accounting income and taxable income other than those described above:
Required:
1. Complete the following table given below and prepare the journal entry to record income taxes in 2021.
2. What is Southern Atlantic’s 2021 net income?
Answer:
1. Depreciation as per books = Cost of purchase/Useful life
Depreciation as per books = $40,000/4
Depreciation as per books = $10,000
Depreciation as per tax for 2021 = Cost of purchase * Deduction rate
Depreciation as per tax for 2021 = $40,000 * 45%
Depreciation as per tax for 2021 = $18,000
Temporary difference = $18,000 - $10,000
Temporary difference = $8,000
Particulars Amount Tax Rate Tax Recorded as
Pretax accounting income $460,000
Permanent difference -$68,000
Income subject to taxation $392.00 25% $98,000 Income tax expense

The Ring Division of A1d-Y6z Company reported the following information for May: selling price per unit .................... $35 variable costs per unit ................... $12 turnover .................................. 2.50 residual income ........................... $229,600 margin .................................... 22% units sold ................................ 40,000 Calculate the number of units the Ring Division needed to sell in May in order for the residual income in May to be $505,600.
Answer:
52,000 units
Explanation:
Selling price = $35*40,000 = $1,400,000
Variable cost = $12 * 40,000 = $480,000
Contribution margin = $1,400,000 - $480,000 = $920,000
Fixed cost = Residual income + Contribution
Fixed cost = $920,000 - $229,600
Fixed cost = $690,400
Sales to earn residual income = [Fixed cost + Desired profit] / Contribution per unit
Sales to earn residual income = [$690,400 + $505,600] / $35 - $12
Sales to earn residual income = $1,196,000 / $23
Sales to earn residual income = 52,000 units

Unemployment rate refers to the percentage of the total labor force in an economy, who are unemployed but seeking to be gainfully employed. The unemployment rate is divided into various types, these include;
I. Natural Rate of Unemployment (NU).
II. Frictional unemployment rate (FU).
III. Structural unemployment rate (SU).
IV. Actual unemployment rate (AU).
V. Cyclical unemployment rate (CU).
The attraction-selection-attrition (ASA) theory was developed and introduced by Benjamin Schneider. This theory typically gives the reason why a business firm or organization looks and feels the way it does with respect to the employees and employers.
According to the attraction-selection-attrition (ASA) theory, job applicants avoid employment in companies whose values seem incompatible with their own values. Also, it states that job applicants are usually attracted to colleagues having similar assumptions and values.
Oak Corp., a calendar-year corporation, was formed three years ago by its sole shareholder, Glover, and has always operated as a C corporation. However, at the beginning of this year, Glover made a qualifying S election for Oak Corp., effective January 1. Oak Corp. did not have any C corporation earnings and profits on that date. On June 1, Oak Corp. distributed $15,000 to Glover. What are the amount and character of gain Glover must recognize on the distribution, and what is his basis in his Oak Corp. stock in each of the following alternative scenarios?
a. At the time of the distribution, Glover’s basis in his Oak Corp. stock was $35,000.
b. At the time of the distribution, Glover’s basis in his Oak Corp. stock was $8,000.
c. At the time of the distribution, Glover’s basis in his Oak Corp. stock was $0.
Answer:
Oak Corp distributed $15,000 to Glover and we are required to compute the amount and character of gain Glover must recognize under the scenarios as stated in the question:
a. No gain will be recognized by Glover. Rather, his stock basis will be reduced from $35,000 to $20,000 ($35,000 basis - $15,000 cash distribution). So, gain recognized by him is $0.
b. Long term capital gain of $7,000 ($15,000 - $8,000) will be recognized by Glover and his stock basis will be reduced from $8,000 to $0.
c. The entire $15,000 ($15,000-$0) will be recognized as long term capital gain by Glover and his stock basis will remain $0.

"Minimum wage laws cause unemployment because the legal minimum wage is set" 9) A) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be greater than labor supply. B) below the market wage, causing labor demand to be greater than labor supply. C) too low. D) below the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply. E) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply.
Answer: E) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply.
Explanation:
Minimum wage simply refers to the lowest wage that employers can pay their workers. Minimum wage is a form of price floor which means that it's typically higher than the equilibrium or market wage.
In this case, since it's higher than the market wage, there'll be an increase in the supply of labor as those that are unemployed will be willing to work duw to the increase in the wage rate.
On the other hand, there'll be a reduction in the demand for labor as employers typically will want to reduce cost and won't be interested in employing more workers.
Therefore, the correct option is E
Lily Company sells automatic can openers under a 75-day warranty for defective merchandise. Based on past experience, Lily estimates that 4% of the units sold will become defective during the warranty period. Management estimates that the average cost of replacing or repairing a defective unit is $20. The units sold and units defective that occurred during the last 2 months of 2020 are as follows:
Months Units Sold Units Defective Prior to December 31
November 37,300 746
December 39,300 491
Required:
a. Prepare the journal entries to record the estimated liability for warranties and the costs incurred in honoring 1,237 warranty claims.
b. Determine the estimated warranty liability at December 31 for the units sold in November and December.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
In November month:
Estimated defective units:
= Estimated Percentage to be defective units × Units sold
= 4% × 37,300
= 1,492
The Estimated cost of repairing defective units is
= Estimated defective units × Estimated cost of repairing the defective unit
= 1,492 × $20
= $29,840
In December month:
Estimated defective units:
= Estimated Percentage to be defective units × Units sold
= 4% × 39,300
= 1,572
The Estimated cost of repairing defective units:
= Estimated defective units × Estimated cost of repairing the defective unit
= 1,572 × $20
= $31,440
Now the Total estimated liability is
= $29,840 + $31,440
= $61,280
The Journal entries are as follows:
(a) Warranty expenses A/c Dr. $61,280
To Estimated warranty payable $61,280
(Being warranty expense is recorded)
Estimated warranty payable A/c Dr. $24,740
To Cash/ Material consume $24,740
(being cash paid is recorded)
(b) The estimated warranty liability is $61,280

Super Clinics offers one service that has the following annual cost and utilization estimates: Variable cost per visit $ 10 Annual direct fixed costs $50,000 Allocation of overhead costs $20,000 Expected utilization 1,000 visits What price per visit must be set if the clinic wants to make an annual profit of $10,000 on the service? A. $ 70 B. $ 80 C. $ 90 D. $100 E. $110
Answer:
C. $ 90
Explanation:
Number of visits = 1,000
Variable cost = $10 × 1,000 = $10,000
Fixed cost = $50,000
Overhead cost = $20,000
Required profit = $10,000
So,Total Cost = Variable Cost+ Fixed Cost+ Overhead Cost
= $10,000 + $50,000 + $20,000
= $80,000
Now, Price per Visit = (Total Cost+ Required Profit) ÷ Number of visits
= ($80,000 + $10,000) ÷ 1,000
= $90,000 ÷ 1,000
= $90
Cominsky Company purchased a machine on July 1, 2018, for $28,000. Cominsky paid $200 in title fees and county property tax of $125 on the machine. In addition, Cominsky paid $500 shipping charges for delivery, and $475 was paid to a local contractor to build and wire a platform for the machine on the plant floor. The machine has an estimated useful life of 6 years with a salvage value of $3,000.
Determine the depreciation base of Cominsky’s new machine. Cominsky uses straight-line depreciation.
Depreciation base $
Entry field with incorrect answer now contains modified data
Answer:
$26,300
Explanation:
Depreciation Base is the total amount charged to expenses over an asset's useful life.
In Straight line method of Depreciation:
Depreciation Base = (Cost of Asset - Salvage Value)
Cost of Asset $28,000 + $200 + $125 + $500 + $475

a. 16%
b. 18%
c. 24%
d. 22%
Answer:
WACC = 0.18 or 18%
Option b is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure that can contain one or more of the following components, namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate the WACC is as follows,
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
w represents the weight of each component D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively r represents the cost of each componentrD * (1-tax rate) represents the after tax cost of debt
WACC = 0.2 * 0.16 + 0.8 * 0.185
WACC = 0.18 or 18%
g Earnings per share Financial statement data for the years 20Y5 and 20Y6 for Black Bull Inc. follow: 20Y5 20Y6 Net income $1,687,000 $2,632,000 Preferred dividends $40,000 $40,000 Average number of common shares outstanding 90,000 shares 120,000 shares a. Determine the earnings per share for 20Y5 and 20Y6. Round to two decimal places. 20Y5 20Y6 Earnings per Share $fill in the blank 1 $fill in the blank 2 b. Is the change in the earnings per share from 20Y5 to 20Y6 favorable or unfavorable
Answer:
a) EPS
2005 Earnings per share=$18.3
2005 Earnings per share=$21.6
b) EPS Variance = $3.3 favorable
Explanation:
Earnings per share(EPS) is the total earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the number of units of common stock
Earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders= Net income after tax - preference dividend
Earnings per share = (Net income after tax - preference dividend)/Number of shares
2005 Earnings per share = $1,687,000- $40,000/90,000 shares=$18.3
2006 Earnings per share=($2,632,000- $40,000)/120,000 shares=$21.6
2005 Earnings per share=$18.3
2006 Earnings per share=$21.6
EPS Variance
Comparing the EPS the Earning per share in 2006 is higher than that of 2005. Hence, the variance = 21.6-18.3= $3.3 favorable
EPS Variance = $3.3 favorable
