Rickett Corporation had a favorable direct-labor efficiency variance of $6,000 for the period just ended. The actual wage rate was $0.50 more than the standard rate of $12.00. If the company's standard hours allowed for actual production totaled 9,500, how many hours did the firm actually work

Answers

Answer:

Actual Quantity= 9,000 hours

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct-labor efficiency variance= $6,000 favorable

Standard rate= $12.00.

Standard quantity=  9,500

To calculate the actual hours worked, we need to use the following formula.

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

6,000 = (9,500 - Actual Quantity)*12

6,000= 114,000 - 12Actual Quantity

12Actual Quantity = 108,000

Actual Quantity= 9,000 hours

Prepare a contribution format income statement at the company's break-even point that shows the appropriate levels of sales for the two products.

Answers

Answer:

1. Overall contribution margin ratio for the company = 80%

2. Company's overall breakeven point in dollar sales = $117,300

3. Net operating income = $0

Explanation:

1. What is the overall contribution margin (CM) ratio for the company?

Overall contribution margin ratio for the company = (Total contribution margin / Total sales) * 100 = ($132,000 / $165,000) * 100 = 80%

2. What is the company's overall break-even point in dollar sales?

Company's overall breakeven point in dollar sales = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio = $93,840 / 80% = $117,300

3. Prepare a contribution format income statement at the company's break-even point that shows the appropriate levels of sales for the two products.

Note: See Part 3 of the attached excel file for the contribution format income statement at the company's break-even point that shows the appropriate levels of sales for the two products.

In this market, the equilibrium hourly wage is $ , and the equilibrium quantity of labor is thousand workers. Suppose a senator introduces a bill to legislate a minimum hourly wage of $6. This type of price control is called a .

Answers

Answer:

The equilibrium hourly wage is the wage where the curve of supply of labor intersects with that of the demand for labor. The same goes for the equilibrium quantity of labor.

The equilibrium hourly wage is $10, and the equilibrium quantity of labor is 450 thousand workers.

If a Senator introduces a minimum hourly wage, this is considered a Price Floor.

Price floors are prices that that the government mandates that one cannot charge below for a good or service. If there is a price floor on cake for instance, a person is not allowed to charge less than that price floor for cake. The Senator's bill is therefore saying that people should not be paid less than $6 an hour.

= $60,600 ÷ 10.10

= 6,000 machine hours

b. The applied manufacturing overhead is

= 5,900 × $10.10

= $59,590

c. The overhead should be

= $60,600 - $59,590

= $1,010 underapplied

a. $13,000.
b. $15,000.
c. $25,000.
d. $75,000.

Answers

Answer:

c. $25,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine At the end of the year, the company's equity totaled:

First step is to calculate the Net income using this formula

Net income= Revenues- Expense

Let plug in the formula

Net income= 35000-23000

Net income=12000

Second step is to calculate Net income added to capital using this formula

Net income added to capital = Net income-Cash dividend

Let plug in the formula

Net income added to capital=12000-2000

Net income added to capital=10000

Now let determine the Ending company total equity using this formula

Ending company total equity= Opening invested capital + Net income added to capital

Let plug in the formula

Ending company total equity=15000+10000

Ending company total equity=$25000

Therefore At the end of the year, the company's equity totaled:$25,000

Lucy has been the sole shareholder of a calendar year S corporation since 1980. At the end of 2011, Lucy's stock basis is $23,500, and she receives a distribution of $25,000. Corporate level accounts are computed as follows.
AAA 7,000
PTI 11,000
Accumulated E&P 600
How much capital gain, if any, will Lucy have?
a. $600
b. $7,000
c. $6,400
d. $900
e. None of the above

Answers

Answer: d. $900

Explanation:

Capital gain = Total distribution - AAA as this isn't taxed - Accumulated E&P - PTI which isn't taxed either - Stock basis

Stock basis = Stock basis - AAA - PTI

= 23,500 - 7,000 - 11,000

= $5,500

Capital Gain = 25,000 - 7,000 - 600 - 11,000 - 5,500

= $900

E Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 54,000 units per month is as follows: Per Unit Direct materials $ 49.60 Direct labor $ 9.50 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 2.50 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 20.10 Variable selling & administrative expense $ 4.60 Fixed selling & administrative expense $ 22.00 The normal selling price of the product is $114.10 per unit. An order has been received from an overseas customer for 3,400 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $2.60 less per unit on this order than on normal sales. Suppose there is ample idle capacity to produce the units required by the overseas customer and the special discounted price on the special order is $90.40 per unit. The monthly financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be:

Answers

Answer: $91120

Explanation:

The The monthly financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company will be calculated thus:

Incremental revenue = (3400 × $90.40) = $307360

Less: Incremental Cost

Direct material (3400 × $49.60) = $168640

Direct labor (3400 × $9.5) = $32300

Variable manufacturing overhead = (3400 × $2.5) = $8500

Variable selling & administrative expense = (3400 × $2) = $6800

Total incremental Cost = $216240

Therefore, the monthly financial advantage will be:

= $$307360 - $216240

= $91120

Suppose Cute Camel Woodcraft Company is evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project (project Alpha) that will require an initial investment of $400,000. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows:

Year Cash Flow
Year 1 $325,000
Year 2 $500,000
Year 3 $400,000
Year 4 $475,000

Cute Camel Woodcraft Company's weighted average cost of capital is 8%, and project Alpha has the same risk as the firm's average project. Based on the cash flows, what is project Alpha's net present value (NPV)?

Answers

Answer:

$996,267.41

Explanation:

The Net Present Value of Alpha`s project can be determined by using the CFj Function of a Financial Calculator as follows :

- $400,000  CF0

$325,000     CF1

$500,000    CF2

$400,000    CF3

$475,000    CF4

I/YR = 8%

Then, SHIFT NPV gives $996,267.41

Thus, Alpha's net present value (NPV) is $996,267.41.

A company receives a 10%, 90-day note for $2,700. The total interest due on the maturity date is: (Use 360 days a year.)

Answers

Answer:

Interest amount = $67.5

Explanation:

Use the below formula to find the interest amount:

Interest amount = The value of note x Interest rate x (90 / 360)

Given value of note = $2700

Interest rate = 10%

Time = 90/360

Now plug the value in the above formula and solve for the interest due:

Interest amount = The value of note x Interest rate x (90 / 360)

Interest amount = 2700 x 10% x (90 / 360)

Interest amount = $67.5

The CEO of Kwikee Shoppe, a chain of convenience stores, believes that some of his managers aren’t making decisions as effectively as they could. He has hired you as a consultant to analyze the types of bias that could be causing poor decisions. If you can identify the biases that may cloud their judgment, then they can be made aware of these tendencies so they can improve their performance. You gather data about Kwikee Shoppe managers’ most recent decisions.
Stella is in charge of the western region, and she has a strong track record of opening new stores that perform well and closing stores that could not contribute satisfactorily to the bottom line. Lately, however, many of her new stores have had below average performance, and she has closed some stores that probably could have been turned around by putting a different store manager in charge, advertising more, or offering more specials on popular products. Nonetheless, Stella knows that she is great at her job. Which of the following would not be a way for Stella overcome this bias?
A. Consult with other regional managers for their opinion before closing stores.
B. Before closing a store, replace the manager with one from a successful store and revisit the decision in 90 days.

Answers

Answer:

Kwikee Shoppe

The way that Stella would overcome this bias is:

D. Focus on the stores that she closed that would not have improved with a different manager in place, additional advertising, or sales.

Explanation:

The other listed actions would enable Stella to overcome her personal bias, which may be clouding her sense of judgment.  The focus on the stores that she had closed would only puff her ego instead of reducing bias.  To focus on the past when Stella is proud of her achievements cannot allow her to objectively review the situation in order to improve on her decisions and performance.

An example of fast tracking a project schedule would be to overlap the design and production phases for a design-to-production project, where the conventional approach would be to move on to construction only after completing the design phase.
a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Project management can be defined as the process of designing, planning, developing, leading and execution of a project plan or activities using a set of skills, tools, knowledge, techniques and experience to achieve the set goals and objectives of creating a unique product or service.

Generally, projects are considered to be temporary because they usually have a start-time and an end-time to complete, execute or implement the project plan.

Furthermore, the main purpose of project management is working toward a common goal.

This ultimately implies that, project managers should ensure adequate attention and time is taken to identify, analyze and manage capital, raw materials, people, system of tasks and other resources, so as to effectively and efficiently achieve a common goal with all project stakeholders.

The fundamentals of Project Management includes;

1. Project initiation

2. Project planning

3. Project execution

4. Monitoring and controlling of the project.

5. Adapting and closure of project.

In the execution of a project, delaying a task normally affects the start or finishing time of the other tasks (successors) in a project.

The amount of time that is permitted for an activity to be delayed without delaying the early start date of any immediately following (succeeding) activities refers to the free slack or having an adverse effect on entire project.

A project schedule can be defined as a plan that comprises of the deliverables, activities and milestones with respect to a project, especially by including the intended start and finish dates.

The time for the implementation or execution of a project can be fast-tracked by a project manager.

For example, you can fast-track a design-to-production project by overlapping the design and production phases; especially by moving on to construction only after completing the design phase.

A company using the FIFO method had beginning work in process inventory of 10,000 units and completed 75,000 units. They also had 5,000 units in ending work in process inventory. The number of units started and completed equals_________

Answers

Answer:

the number of units started and completed is 65,000 units

Explanation:

The computation of the number of units started and completed is given below:

= Units completed - beginning work in process inventory units

= 75,000 units - 10,000 units

= 65,000 units

Hence, the number of units started and completed is 65,000 units
