Answer:
a. The CPI for 2019 is 100 because 2019 is the base year
b. CPI = Cost of basket of goods at current year prices/Cost of basket of goods at base year prices * 100
CPI = (1,000*$2.50) + (100*$75) + (500*$0.12) / (1,000$2.50) + (100*$50) + (500*$0.10) * 100
CPI = 10,060/7,550 * 100
CPI = 133.2450331125828
CPI = 133.25
c. Inflation rate = CPI in the current rate - CPI in previous year / CPI in previous year * 100
Inflation rate = 133.25 - 100/133.25 * 100
Inflation rate = 0.24953096 * 100
Inflation rate = 24.95%
Skyler Manufacturing recorded operating data for its shoe division for the year. Sales $4,500,000 Contribution margin 500,000 Controllable fixed costs 200,000 Average total operating assets 900,000 How much is controllable margin for the year
Answer:
Controllable margin= $300,000
Controllable margin in %= 33.3%
Explanation:
Controllable margin is sales revenue less controllable variable costs and fixed cost.
Controllable margin= Sales revenue - controllable variable cost - controllable fixed costs
Controllable margin= contribution margin - fixed costs
= 500,000 - 200,000= 300,000
Controllable margin in %= 300,000/900,000 × 100 =33.3%
Controllable margin in %= 33.3
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
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.
Akers Company sold bonds on July 1, 20X1, with a face value of $100,000. These bonds are due in 10 years. The stated annual interest rate is 6% per year, payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31. These bonds were sold to yield 8%. By July 1, 20X2, the market yield on these bonds had risen to 10%.
Required:
What was the bonds' market price on July 1 20x2?
Answer:
$76,620.83
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows
Future Value (FV) = $100,000
Rate of interest = 10% yearly
Rate of interest (Rate) = 10%÷ 2 = 5% semiannually
Number of period (Nper) = 9 × 2 = 18
Face value = $100,000
Payment (pmt) = $100,000 × (6%÷2) = $3,000
By putting the value in excel present value formula, we get,
PV = $76,620.83

Review each of the following independent sets of conditions. For each condition, calculate the (1) sample rate of deviation, and use the AICPA sample evaluation tables to identify the (2) upper limit rate of deviation, and (3) allowance for sampling risk (n = sample size, d = deviations. ROO = risk of overreliance). (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)
a. n = 100. d = 8. ROO = 5%.
b. n = 100. d = 4. ROO = 5%.
c. n = 100. d = 8. ROO = 10%.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. n = 100. d = 8. ROO = 5%.
i. Sample rate of deviation will be:
= Number of Deviations / Sample size
= 8/100
= 8%
ii. Upper limit rate of deviation = 14%
iii. Allowance for sampling risk will be:
= Upper Limit Rate of Deviation - Sample rate of devaition
= 14% - 8%
= 6%
b. n = 100. d = 4. ROO = 5%.
i. Sample rate of deviation will be:
= Number of Deviations / Sample size
= 4/100
= 4%
ii. Upper limit rate of deviation = 9%
iii. Allowance for sampling risk will be:
= Upper Limit Rate of Deviation - Sample rate of devaition
= 9% - 4%
= 5%
c. n = 100. d = 8. ROO = 10%.
i. Sample rate of deviation will be:
= Number of Deviations / Sample size
= 8/100
= 8%
ii. Upper limit rate of deviation = 12.7%
iii. Allowance for sampling risk will be:
= Upper Limit Rate of Deviation - Sample rate of devaition
= 12.7% - 8%
= 4.7%
Market Structure and Market Power
The marginal revenue curve of a firm with market power will always lie below its demand curve because of:_____.
a. the discount effect and the substitution effect.
b. the substitution effect and the income effect.
c. the output effect and the discount effect.
d. the output effect and the substitution effect.
Answer: c. the output effect and the discount effect.
Explanation:
The output effect is how firms with market power control their production in honest to make profit.
A firm with market farm will have to reduce it's marginal revenue curve to increase sales.
The marginal revenue will therefore be below the Demand curve to show that the marginal revenue has to be reduced for a team to sell more goods.

a. Describe an important decision in your academic or personal life that you will have to make in the near future.
b. Using the five-step decision-making approach , analyze your decision and conclude with your "best" choice.
Explanation:
a. Describe an important decision in your academic or personal life that you will have to make in the near future.
An important decision for all people is to choose which professional career to follow, since there are people with different skills, which can cause some difficulty in choosing which academic course to follow.
It is essential that the student does research on the professions that are most consistent with their profile, it is important to read about the functions of each profession, take vocational tests, talk to other professionals, etc., so that their decision is more effective.
b. Using the five-step decision-making approach , analyze your decision and conclude with your "best" choice.
1- Identify your goals: In choosing a professional career, identifying your life goals is essential to set more achievable goals and stay focused.
2- Gather information: The more you research about the career options you intend to pursue, the easier it will be to understand the aspects that will lead to a successful decision. It is important to gather information from different sources, through internet searches, books, conversations with other workers, etc.
3- Check the consequences: This step is important for the individual to be able to see his decision in a broad sense, from the positive and negative aspects that every profession has, and thus analyze whether he will be able to deal with all of them in the best way.
4- Make the decision: In the penultimate stage the decision is made, so far you have already gathered essential information that will lead you to the decision. In the example of career choice, the decision is extremely important and can impact a person's entire life, so it is common for doubts and uncertainties to arise from the decision.
5- Evaluation of the decision: This is the step that will assist in the realization of a good decision, as in the correction of problems and development of skills that contribute to make your decision the best possible and in line with your objectives.
The risk-free rate of return is 9.0%, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%, and the stock of Xyrong Corporation has a beta coefficient of 2.0.

b-2. What is your expected one-year holding-period return on Xyrong stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Expected one-year holding-period return
Answer:
$109
$118.81
18.26%
Explanation:
Intrinsic value can be determined using the constant growth dividend model
according to the constant dividend growth model
price = d1 / (r - g)
d1 = next dividend to be paid
r = cost of equity
g = growth rate
dividend, growth rate and cost of equity are not given and they have to be calculated
growth rate = retention rate x ROE
Retention rate = 1 - payout ratio = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5 = 50%
0.5 x 18% = 9%
According to the capital asset price model: cost of equity = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
9% + 2x (14% - 9%) = 19%
dividend = payout ratio x earnings per share
0.5 x $20 = $10
Intrinsic value = [tex]\frac{10( 1 + 0.09)}{0.19 - 0.09}[/tex] = $109
Stock price in a year
[tex]\frac{10(1 + 0.9)^{2} }{0.19 - 0.09}[/tex] = 118.81
(dividend return + price return)
price return is the return on investment as a result of appreciation or depreciation of share price
Dividend return is the return on investment from dividend earned
price return = price at the end of the year - price at the beginning of the year

oneycutt Co. is comparing two different capital structures. Plan I would result in 39,000 shares of stock and $108,000 in debt. Plan II would result in 33,000 shares of stock and $324,000 in debt. The interest rate on the debt is 7 percent. a. Ignoring taxes, compare both of these plans to an all-equity plan assuming that EBIT will be $160,000. The all-equity plan would result in 42,000 shares of stock outstanding. What is the EPS for each of these plans
Answer:
All equity plan:
EPS = $160,000 / 42,000 = $3.81
Plan I:
EPS = [$160,000 - ($108,000 x 7%)] / 39,000 = $152,440 / 39,000 = $3.91
Plan II:
EPS = [$160,000 - ($324,000 x 7%)] / 33,000 = $137,320 / 33,000 = $4.16
Plan II is better since the resulting EPS is higher than the other alternatives.

The company estimates that it can issue debt at a rate of rd = 10%, and its tax rate is 30%. It can issue preferred stock that pays a constant dividend of $5 per year at $48 per share. Also, its common stock currently sells for $33 per share; the next expected dividend, D1, is $4.00; and the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% per year. The target capital structure consists of 75% common stock, 15% debt, and 10% preferred stock.
Required:
a. What is the cost of each of the capital components?
b. What is Adamson's WACC?
Answer:
a. Cost of debt = Interest * (1 - Tax rate)
= 10%*(1 - 0.30)
= 7%
Cost of preferred stock = Dividend/ Issue price
= 5/48
= 10.42%
Cost of common stock (Cost of retained earnings) = (D1/P0) + g
= (4/33) + 0.07
= 0.12 + 0.07
= 0.19
= 19%
b. Fund Cost Weight Cost * Weight
Debt 7% 0.15 1.05%
Preferred stock 10.42% 0.10 1.042%
Retained earnings 19% 0.75 14.25%

During the current year, the company purchased equipment for $212,000 on October 1. It is estimated the equipment will have a useful life of 8 years and a salvage value of $12,000. Estimated production is 40,000 units and estimated working hours are 20,000. During the current year, the company uses the equipment for 525 hours and the equipment produced 1,000 unites. The company uses December 31 as its fiscal year end.
Part 1: For the current year, compute depreciation expense using the straight-line method.
Part 2: For the current year, compute depreciation expense using the activity method (units of output).
Part 3: For the current year, compute depreciation expense using the activity method (working hours).
Answer:
$6250
$5000
$5250
Explanation:
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($212,000 - $12,000) / 8 = $25,000
The machine was used for only 3 months in the fiscal year. Thus, the depreciation expense = $25,000 x (3/12) = $6250
Activity method based on output = (output produced that year / total output of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)
(1000 / 40,000) x ($212,000 - $12,000) = $5000
Activity method based on hours worked = (hours worked that year / total hours of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)
($212,000 - $12,000) x (525 / 20,0000) = $5250
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
Clampett, Incorporated, converted to an S corporation on January 1, 2020. At that time, Clampett, Incorporated, had cash ($54,000), inventory (FMV $74,000, basis $37,000), accounts receivable (FMV $54,000, basis $54,000), and equipment (FMV $74,000, basis $94,000). In 2021, Clampett, Incorporated, sells its entire inventory for $74,000 (basis $37,000). Assume the corporate tax rate is 21 percent. Clampett, Incorporated's taxable income in 2021 would have been $1,000,000 if it had been a C corporation. How much built-in gains tax does Clampett, Incorporated, pay in 2021

$3,570
Explanation:
Particulars FMV Basis Differences
Inventory $74,000 $37,000 $37,000
Accounts receivable $54,000 $54,000 $0
Equipment $74,000 $94,000 -$20,000
Taxable gain $17,000
Tax rate = 21%
So, Built-in gains tax = Taxable gain × tax rate
= $17,000 × 21%
= $3,570

Computing Straight-Line and Double-Declining-Balance Depreciation
On January 2, 2016, Dechow Company purchases a machine to help manufacture a part for one of its key products. The machine cost $306,180 and is estimated to have a useful life of six years, with an expected salvage value of $32,760.
Compute each year's depreciation expense for 2016 and 2017 for each of the following depreciation methods.
a. Straight-line.
b. Double-declining balance.
Answer:
a.
2016 = $45,570
2017 = $45,570
b.
2016 = $102,080
2017 = $68,014
Explanation:
Straight line method
Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation
Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated useful life
2016
Depreciation Charge = $45,570
2017
Depreciation Charge = $45,570
Double declining method
Double declining method charges a higher amount of depreciation at the early years and less in the later years
Depreciation Charge = 2 x SLDP x BVSLDP
2016
Depreciation Charge = 2 x 16.67 % x $306,180 = $102,080
2017
Depreciation Charge = 2 x 16.67 % x ($306,180 - $102,080) = $68,014

Explanation:
Monsanto Company, a large chemical and fibers company, invested $37 million in state-of-the-art systems to improve process control, laboratory automation, and local area network (LAN) communications. The investment was not justified merely on cost savings but was also justified on the basis of qualitative considerations. Monsanto management viewed the investment as a critical element toward achieving its version of the future. What qualitative and quantitative considerations do you believe Monsanto would have considered in its strategic evaluation of these investments
Solution :
The investment which was made by the Monsanto Company had both qualitative as well as quantitative aspects. The quantitative aspect of the investment represents the strategic evaluation which relates to the investment in order to improve the process control and the laboratory automation. While improving the process control helps in controlling the working process of the machines and the human force which reduces the wastage to a large extent, it also increases the efficiency and it reduces the cost per unit.
The laboratory automation increases the efficiency of working and also increases the production. Strengthening the LAN network improves the organizations' communication and also reduces the unnecessary delays in the work saving cost. Improving the local area network provides qualitative improvement and it speeds up the work thus reducing the wastage of time and promotes effective communication.

Workings:
w.1. Prepaid Insurance $16,824. The company has separate insurance policies on its buildings and its motor vehicles. Policy B4564 on the building was purchased on July 1, 2021, for $10,080. The policy has a term of 3 years. Policy A2958 on the vehicles was purchased on January 1, 2022, for $8,424. This policy has a term of 18 months.
Expired insurance Policy B4564 adjustment = $10,080 / 3 = $3,360
Expired insurance Policy A2958 adjustment = ($8,424 /18 months) * 12 months = $5,616
Total insurance expense = Expired insurance Policy B4564 adjustment + Expired insurance Policy A2958 adjustment = $3,360 + $5,616 = $8,976
w.2. Unearned Rent Revenue $314,240. The company began subleasing office space in its new building on November 1. At December 31, the company had the following rental contracts that are paid in full for the entire term of the lease.
Earned revenue = Monthly rent * Accrued month * Number of lease
Therefore, we have:
Total earned revenue = ($5,380 * 2 * 5) + ($8,120 * 1 * 4) = $86,280
w.3. Notes Payable $46,800. This balance consists of a note for 6 months at an annual interest rate of 7%, dated October 1.
Interest expense on note payable = Principal * Rate * Time = $46,800 * 7% * (3 / 12) = $819
w.4. Salaries and Wages Payable $0. There are 11 salaried employees. Salaries are paid every Friday for the current week. 5 employees receive a salary of $635 each per week, and 6 employees earn $ 765 each per week. Assume December 31 is a Wednesday. Employees do not work weekends. All employees worked the last 3 days of December.
Total salaries accrued = (5 employees * $635 each per week * 3/5 days) + (6 employees * $765 each per week * 3/5 days) = $4,659

The following information pertains to Lightning Inc., at the end of December: Credit Sales $ 20,000 Accounts Payable 10,000 Accounts Receivable 11,800 Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts 400 credit Cash Sales 20,000 Lightning uses the aging method and estimates it will not collect 7% of accounts receivable not yet due, 20% of receivables up to 30 days past due, and 46% of receivables greater than 30 days past due. The accounts receivable balance of $11,800 consists of $7,500 not yet due, $2,300 up to 30 days past due, and $2,000 greater than 30 days past due. What is the appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense
Answer:
The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.
Explanation:
The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense can be calculated as follows:
Bad debt expense = (Percentage of accounts receivable not yet due it will not collect * Accounts receivable not yet due) + (Percentage of receivables up to 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables up to 30 days past due) + (Parentage of receivables of receivables greater than 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables greater than 30 days past due) - Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit) ……………………… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Bad debt expense = (7% * $7,500) + (20% + $2,300) + (46% * $2,000) - $400 = $3,345.20
Therefore, the appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.

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
