Explanation:
Assume that it is January 1, 2019, and that the Mendoza Company is considering the replacement of a machine that has been used for the past 3 years in a special project for the company. This project is expected to continue for an additional 5 years (i.e., until the end of 2023). Mendoza will either keep the existing machine for another 5 years (8 years total) or replace the existing machine now with a new model that has a 5-year estimated life. Pertinent facts regarding this decision are as follows:
Keep Existing Machine Purchase New Machine
Purchase price of machine (including transportation, setup charges, etc.) $ 150,000 $ 190,000
Useful life (determined at time of acquisition) 8 years 5 years
Estimated salvage value, end of 2023* $ 20,000 $ 25,000
Expected cash operating costs, per year:
Variable (per unit produced/sold) $ 0.25 $ 0.19
Fixed costs (total) $ 25,000 $ 24,000
Estimated salvage (terminal) values:
January 1, 2019 $ 68,000
December 31, 2023 $ 12,000 $ 22,000
Net working capital committed at time of acquisition of existing machine (all fully recovered at end of project, December 31, 2023) $ 30,000
Incremental net working capital required if new machine is purchased on January 1, 2019 (all fully recovered at end of project, December 31, 2023) $ 10,000
Expected annual volume of output/sales (in units), over the period 2019–2023 500,000 500,000
*Note: These amounts are used for depreciation calculations.
Assume further that Mendoza is subject to a 40% income tax, both for ordinary income and gains/losses associated with disposal of machinery, and that all cash flows occur at the end of the year, except for the initial investment. Assume that straight-line depreciation is used for tax purposes and that any tax associated with the disposal of machinery occurs at the same time of the related transaction.
Required:
1. Determine relevant cash flows (after-tax) at time of purchase of the new machine (i.e., time 0: January 1, 2019).
2. Determine the relevant (after-tax) cash inflow each year of project operation (i.e., at the end of each of years 1 through 5).
3. Determine the relevant (after-tax) cash inflow at the end of the project's life (i.e., at the project's disposal time, December 31, 2023).
5. Determine the undiscounted net cash flow (after tax) for the new machine and determine whether on this basis the old machine should be replaced.

Robo Inc.requires $70,000 of direct material for production and top management desires $3,000 in ending raw materials inventory. The company has $2,000 in beginning raw materials inventory. What would Robo's budgeted purchases of direct materials be
Answer:
Budgeted purchases = $71000
Explanation:
Below is the given values:
Direct material for the production = $70000
Ending raw material inventory = $3000
Beginning raw material = $2000
Budgeted purchases = Direct material for the production + Ending raw material - Beginning raw material
Budgeted purchases = 70000 + 3000 - 2000
Budgeted purchases = $71000

QS 8-11 Natural resources and depletion LO P3 Perez Company acquires an ore mine at a cost of $1,400,000. It incurs additional costs of $400,000 to access the mine, which is estimated to hold 1,000,000 tons of ore. 180,000 tons of ore are mined and sold the first year. The estimated value of the land after the ore is removed is $200,000. Calculate the depletion expense from the information given. 1.
Answer:
$288,000
Explanation:
Cost = $1,800,000 ($1,400,000+$400,000)
Salvage value = $200,000
Amount subject to depletion = Cost - Salvage value
Amount subject to depletion = $1,800,000 - $200,000
Amount subject to depletion = $1,600,000
Total units of capacity = 1,000,000 tons
Depletion per unit = Amount subject to depletion / Total units of capacity
Depletion per unit = $1,600,000 / 1,000,000 tons
Depletion per unit = $1.6 per unit
Units extracted and sold in period = 180,000 tons
Depletion expense = Units extracted and sold in period * Depletion per unit
Depletion expense = 180,000 tons * $1.6 per unit
Depletion expense = $288,000

In the United States, if the price of imported oil rises so that the prices of gasoline and heating oil rise, then the a. consumer price index rises much more than does the GDP deflator. b. consumer price index rises slightly more than does the GDP deflator. c. GDP deflator rises much more than does the consumer price index. d. GDP deflator and the consumer price index rise by about the same amount.
Answer: a. consumer price index rises much more than does the GDP deflator.
Explanation:
The Consumer Price Index is a measure of inflation. It shows the change in the prices of a basket of goods over a period of time. If the prices of gasoline and heating oil rise, this basket will be affected and so Consumer Price Index (CPI) will increase.
GDP deflator on the other hand, adjusts the nominal GDP to a Real GDP measure. Not everything will increase in price in the country as a result of oil going up so GDP will not change by much which would limit the increase in the GDP deflator.
The CPI will therefore rise more than the GDP deflator.

b. Unrealized loss $80,000 Capital, Kelly $80,000
2) The building contributed by Kelly is worth $150,000 for the corporation. However, the contribution by John is worth nothing in real terms. Instead, an unrealized loss is being suffered by the corporation.
Oriole has the following inventory data: July 1 Beginning inventory 34 units at $6.70 5 Purchases 134 units at $7.40 14 Sale 90 units 21 Purchases 67 units at $8.10 30 Sale 63 units Assuming that a perpetual inventory system is used, what is the value of ending inventory on a LIFO basis for July
Answer:
The correct answer is "$585.80".
Explanation:
According to the question,
Sold 63 units on July 30 from purchase of July 21, the remaining will be:
= [tex](67-63)\times 8.1[/tex]
= [tex]4\times 8.1[/tex]
= [tex]32.4[/tex]
Sold 90 units on July 14 from purchase of 5, the remaining will be:
= [tex](134-90)\times 7.4[/tex]
= [tex]44\times 7.4[/tex]
= [tex]325.6[/tex]
On July 1, opening stock will be:
= [tex]34\times 6.7[/tex]
= [tex]227.8[/tex]
hence,
The total value of inventory as per LIFO method will be:
= [tex]32.4+325.6+227.8[/tex]
= [tex]585.80[/tex] ($)

If the demand for donuts is elastic, then a decrease in the price of donuts will a. not change total revenue of donut sellers. b. There is not enough information to answer this question. c. decrease total revenue of donut sellers.
Answer:
increase the total revenue of donut sellers.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price.
If demand is elastic and price is reduce, the percentage reduction in price would be less than the total increase in quantity demanded. As a result, there would be an increase in total revenue.
Lake Power Sports sells jet skis and other powered recreational equipment. Customers pay one-third of the sales price of a jet ski when they initially purchase the ski, and then pay another one-third each year for the next two years. Because Lake has little information about the ability to collect these receivables, it uses the cost recovery method to recognize revenue on these installment sales. In 2020, Lake began operations and sold jet skis with a total price of $900,000 that cost Lake $450,000. Lake collected $300,000 in 2020, $300,000 in 2021, and $300,000 in 2022 associated with those sales. In 2021, Lake sold jet skis with a total price of $1,290,000 that cost Lake $774,000. Lake collected $430,000 in 2021, $240,000 in 2022, and $240,000 in 2023 associated with those sales. In 2023, Lake also repossessed $380,000 of jet skis that were sold in 2021. Those jet skis had a fair value of $142,500 at the time they were repossessed.In its December 31, 2021, balance sheet, Lake would report:
Answer:
$650,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Lake would report in its December 31, 2021, balance sheet
First step is to calculate Net installment Receiveble for 2020 sales
2020 sales Installment Receiveble 300,000
($900,000-$300,000 2018 Collection -$300,000 2021 Collection)
Less Deferred gross profit $150,000
(450,000-$150,000 2020 collection-$150,000 2021 collection )
Net installment Receiveble for 2020 sales $150,000
Second step is to determine Net installment Receiveble for 2021 sales
2021 sales Installment Receiveble $860,000
($1,290,000-$430,000
Less Deferred gross profit $360,000
($600,000-$240,000)
Net installment Receiveble for 2021 sales $500,000
Now let determine what Lake would report in its December 31, 2021, balance sheet
December 31, 2021, balance sheet=$150,000+$500,000
December 31, 2021, balance sheet=$650,000
Therefore In its December 31, 2021, balance sheet, Lake would report: $650,000

a. What is the total cost for a basket of goods that includes 210 gallons of gas, 55 pizzas, 40 6-packs, and 2 textbooks
Answer:
Total Cost Base year = $815Last year Total cost = $1,464.35Explanation:
In the base year, the total cost was:
= (210 * 1.30) + (55 * 3.60) + (40 * 3.90) + (2 * 94)
= 273 + 198 + 156 + 188
= $815
Last year, the total cost was:
= (210 * 1.60) + (55 * 7.65) + (40 * 6.64) + (2 * 221)
= 336 + 420.75 + 265.60 + 442
= $1,464.35
Notice that the total cost increased last year from the base year. This is the effect of inflation. Things get more expensive overtime.
