Answer:
A. $103,044
Explanation:
Ending work in progress inventory = 18,600 units
Cost of equivalent unit for material = $2.90 per unit
Ending work in progress inventory i= 100% complete for material
Total cost of inventory for material = 18,600 units * $2.90 per unit
Total cost of inventory for material = $53,940
Cost of equivalent unit for labor = $4.40
Ending work in progress = 60% complete for labor
Cost of ending work in progress = $4.40 * 60% * 18,600
Cost of ending work in progress = $49,104
Total cost of ending work in progress inventory = $53,940 + $49,104
Total cost of ending work in progress inventory = $103,044

An educational institution has total direct labor and material costs of $1964 per student. Its fixed costs are $352,800. Total revenues for the year were $1,800,000. It had 800 students in the past year. How many students should they accept in the next year to break even assuming the variable cost margins are equal to this year, and assuming fixed costs are to increase by $19,000 due to increased rent for expansion? (round to the nearest whole number).
Answer:
1300 students
Explanation:
The computation of the no of students to be accepted for break even is given below:
Fixed cost is
= $352,800 + $19,000
= $371,800
Revenue per student is
= $1,800,000 ÷ 800
= 2250
And,
Variable cost per student = 1964
So,
Contribution margin = Revenue - Variable cost
= $2,250 - $1,964
= $286
Break even point is
= Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= 371800÷ 286
= 1300 students

Setting a passing score for whites at 80 out of 100 and a passing score of 60 out of 100 for minority applicants in an admission test is an example of race norming.
A. True
B. False
Answer: True
Explanation:
Race norming simply refers to the practice whereby two different cut off test scores are set for employment which is based on race. Race-norming, is also referred to as the within-group score conversion and it has to do with the adjustment of test scores in order to account for the ethnicity of the test-taker.
Since a passing score for whites was set at 80 out of 100 while a passing score of 60 out of 100 was set for the minority applicants, then it's an example of race norming.
Gary Marks is paid on a monthly basis. For the month of January of the current year, he earned a total of $9,138. FICA tax for Social Security is 6.2% on the first $128,400 of earnings each calendar year and the FICA tax for Medicare is 1.45% of all earnings. The FUTA tax rate is 0.6%, and the SUTA tax rate is 5.4%. Both unemployment taxes are applied to the first $7,000 of an employee's pay. The amount of Federal Income Tax withheld from his earnings was $1,516.27. What is the amount of the employer's payroll taxes expenses for this employee
Answer:
$ 1,119.06
Explanation:
It is given that :
Gary Marks total earning = $ 9,138
The social security tax = 6.2%
The Medicare tax = 1.45%
We known, the FUTA and the SUTA must only be applied to the first $7000 earned from Gary's pay.
So, the employer's payroll taxes expenses = Social security + Medicare + FUTA + SUTA
= ($9,138 x 6.2%) + ($9,138 x 1.45%) + ($7000 x 0.6%) + ($7000 x 5.4%)
= 566.56 + 132.5 + 42 + 378
= $ 1,119.06
Therefore, the amount of the employer's payroll taxes expenses is $1,119.06
Changes in the products for which a nation has a comparative advantage create sectoral shocks leading to an increase in frictional unemployment. a. True b. False
Answer: False
Explanation:
Frictional unemployment is a natural unemployment that results when people enter the labor force for the first time and when people move from one job to another. It is therefore not caused by sectoral shocks and every economy, even the best performing ones, will have frictional unemployment.
The unemployment that results from sectoral shocks is cyclical unemployment. This one is not natural and results from the business cycle and shocks to the economy.
During a team meeting, a team member asks about the measurements that will be used on the project to assess performance. The team member feels that some of the measures related to the activities assigned to him are not valid measurements. The project is BEST considered to be in what part of the project management process?
Answer:
The answer is "Executing".
Explanation:
In this inquiry, it is stated that certain of the measurements used to evaluate a team member's efforts are deemed invalid. As a result, he'll have to work during the project's executing phase, when project deliverables are created and project participants execute the majority of the labor. During this team meeting, one of the members inquires about the project's performance measurements, that's why Executing is the correct choice.

Parker & Stone, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools. The company bought some land 5 years ago for $9,639,708 in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent these facilities from a competitor instead. If the land were sold today, the company would net $3,650,288. An engineer was hired to study the land at a cost of $810,081, and her conclusion was that the land can support the new manufacturing facility. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $6,880,840 million to build, and the site requires $529,656 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction. What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project?
Answer:
the proper cash flow amount is $11,060,784
Explanation:
The computation of the proper cash flow amount is shown below:
= land value + plant value + grading value
= $3,650,288 + 6,880,840 + $529,656
= $11,060,784
Hence, the proper cash flow amount is $11,060,784
So the same should be considered and relevant

types of unemployment
structural unemployment is an unemployment that occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition. Structural unemployment tends to be permanent.
The geologist lost his hob permanently due to increase in wages (polices)
Frictional unemployment: the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. Eg. when a real estate agent who leaves a job in Texas and searches for a similar, higher-paying job in California.
Voluntary unemployment: e.g. worker at a fast-food restaurant who quits work and attends college.
Cyclical unemployment: it occurs as a result of fluctuations in the economy. Unemployment would be high in a downturn and low in a boom
Suppose a chair manufacturer finds that the marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS) of capital for labor in her production process is substantially than the ratio of the wage rate for assembly-line labor (w) to the rental rate on machinery (r). How should she alter her use of labor and capital to minimize the cost of production? Holding output constant, the chair manufacturer should use ▼ less more labor and ▼ more less capital.
Answer:
The chair manufacturer should use less labor and more capital.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete because the important word less is omitted. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Suppose a chair manufacturer finds that the marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS) of capital for labor in her production process is substantially less than the ratio of the wage rate for assembly-line labor (w) to the rental rate on machinery (r). How should she alter her use of labor and capital to minimize the cost of production? Holding output constant, the chair manufacturer should use [less/more] labor and [more/less] capital.
Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
The marginal rate of technical substitution (MRST) is the amount by which the quantity of one input must be reduced when one more unit of another input is used to keep output constant.
In order to minimize cost of production while holding output constant, when the MRTS of capital for labor is substantially greater than the ratio of w to r, it implies that less capital and more labor should be used; but when the MRTS of capital for labor is substantially less than the ratio of w to r, it implies that more capital and less labor should be used.
Based on the above explanation, the chair manufacturer should use less labor and more capital.
Song, Inc., uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior. The company observed that at 22,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $33.40 per hour. When activity jumped to 25,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $30.40.On the basis of this information, the variable cost per machine hour was:___________A. $8.40.B. $22.00.C. $25.00.D. $30.40.E. $33.40.
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $8.4
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total cost for each level of machine hours:
Low activity level:
Total cost= 22,000*33.4= $734,800
High activity level:
Total cost= 25,000*30.4= $760,000
Now, we can determine the variable and fixed costs:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (760,000 - 734,800) / (25,000 - 22,000)
Variable cost per unit= $8.4
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 760,000 - (8.4*25,000)
Fixed costs= $550,000
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 734,800 - (8.4*22,000)
Fixed costs= $550,000

Sardi Inc. is considering whether to continue to make a component or to buy it from an outside supplier. The company uses 17,000 of the components each year. The unit product cost of the component according to the company's cost accounting system is given as follows:
Direct materials $ 8.20
Direct labor 8.30
Variable manufacturing overhead 1.20
Fixed manufacturing overhead 4.30
Unit product cost $ 22.00
Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. Of the fixed manufacturing overhead, 70% is avoidable if the component were bought from the outside supplier. In addition, making the component uses 2 minutes on the machine that is the company's current constraint. If the component were bought, time would be freed up for use on another product that requires 4 minutes on this machine and that has a contribution margin of $7.00 per unit. When deciding whether to make or buy the component, what cost of making the component should be compared to the price of buying the component?
A) $20.71 per unit.
B) $22.00 per unit.
C) $25.50 per unit.
D) $24.21 per unit.
Ajax Inc. was formed on April 25 and elected a calendar year for tax purposes. Ajax paid $13,200 to the attorney who drew up the articles of incorporation and $7,100 to the CPA who advised the corporation concerning the accounting and tax implications of its organization. Ajax began business operations on July 15. To what extent can Ajax deduct its $20,300 organizational costs on its first tax return
Answer: $5510
Explanation:
For organizations cost up to $50,000, there'll be a deduction of $5000. The remaining non deductible expense will then be spread out for 180 months. Here, the non deductible cost will be:
= ($13200 + $7100) - $5000
= $20300 - $5000
= $15300
The capitalized cost will then be:
= $15300 / 180
= $85 per month.
Since there's an ammortization of 6 months from July, then the capitalized cost will be:
= $85 × 6
= $510
Therefore, the amount that should be deducted on its first tax return will be:
= $5000 + $510
= $5510

Avery Company has two divisions, Polk and Bishop. Polk produces an item that Bishop could use in its production. Bishop currently is purchasing 26,000 units from an outside supplier for $16 per unit. Polk is currently operating at less than its full capacity of 630,000 units and has variable costs of $9 per unit. The full cost to manufacture the unit is $12. Polk currently sells 460,000 units at a selling price of $18 per unit.
a. What will be the effect on Avery Company’s operating profit if the transfer is made internally?
b. What is the minimum transfer price from Polk’s perspective?
c. What is the maximum transfer price from Bishop’s perspective?
Answer:
a. The effect is that Avery Company’s operating profit will increase by $182,000 if the transfer is made internally.
b. Minimum transfer price = $9
c. Maximum transfer price from Bishop’s perspective = $16.
Explanation:
a. What will be the effect on Avery Company’s operating profit if the transfer is made internally?
To determine this, fixed cost is ignored because it considered irrelevant. Therefore, we have:
Profit per unit = Purchase price from outside - Variable cost of production internally = $16 - $9 = $7
Total increment in operating profit = Current purchase unit of Bishop * Profit per unit = 26,000 * $7 = $182,000
Therefore, Avery Company’s operating profit will increase by $182,000 if the transfer is made internally.
b. What is the minimum transfer price from Polk’s perspective?
Since Polk is currently operating at less than its full capacity, this implies that it will not incur additional fixed cost to produce current purchase units of Bishop. Therefore, only its variable cost of $9 will have to recovered. By implication, we have:
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost = $9
c. What is the maximum transfer price from Bishop’s perspective?
Any price that is higher than $16 at which Bishop is currently purchasing from an outside supplier will result in a loss for Bishop and the increment profit of $182,000 will be lost by Avery Company. This therefore implies that:
Maximum transfer price from Bishop’s perspective = Price at which Bishop is currently purchasing from an outside supplier = $16

Explanation:
The computation of the present value of an investment is given below:
present value
= Future value ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^time period
=$2,000 ÷ (1+.051)^1
= $2,000 ÷ 1.051
= $1902.94
Hence, the present value of an investment is $1,902.94
ohn and Lisa form a partnership to operate a restaurant. Lisa signs a two-year lease on a space for the restaurant without consulting John. Under the legal concept of ________, John and the partnership are responsible for this lease, although it was only signed by Lisa.
Answer:
General Partnership
Explanation:
The legal concept of General Partnership obliges two or more signing partners -Lisa and John in this case- to share all assets, all liabilities, and to be responsible for all matters related to the business, regardless of who signs a contract, or contracts new debt, or acquires a new asset, and so on.
So under this legal concept, even if John did not sign the lease, he is still legally responsible for it.
