Many assets provide a series of cash inflows over time; and many obligations require a series of payments. When the payments are equal and are made at fixed intervals, the series is an annuity. There are three types of annuities: (1) __________ (2)_________, and (3) __________-. One can find an annuity's future and present values, the interest rate built into annuity contracts, and the length of time it takes to reach a financial goal using an annuity.
Answer:
Fixed annuities
Variable annuities
Indexed annuities
Explanation:
Annuities are defined as contract that pays out regular amounts over time at a particular interest rate.
Usually there is an initial investment of a lumps sum or a series of deposits.
Annuities are classified based on level of risk and payout potential into 3:
- Fixed annuity give out a fixed guaranteed payout amount. The risk is low but the payout is low. Slightly above certificate of deposits.
- Variable annuity is one that gives room for a higher payout but risk is also higher. A set of mutual funds are invested in and payout is dependent on how they perform.
- Indexed annuity gives higher return that is tied to the performance of an index like the S&P 500. The risk is lower than that of variable annuity

Sparky Corporation uses the weighted-average method of process costing. The following information is available for February in its Molding Department:
Units:
Beginning Inventory: 30,000 units, 100% complete as to materials and 55% complete as to conversion.
Units started and completed: 120,000.
Units completed and transferred out: 150,000.
Ending Inventory: 32,500 units, 100% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion.
Costs:
Costs in beginning Work in Process - Direct Materials: $48,000.
Costs in beginning Work in Process - Conversion: $53,850.
Costs incurred in February - Direct Materials: $328,050.
Costs incurred in February - Conversion: $604,150.
Required:
Calculate the cost per equivalent unit of materials.
Answer:
Cost per equivalent unit of material = $2.06
Explanation:
Total cost of material= Cost of material in beginning WIP + Cost of material incurred in February
= $48,000 + $328,050
= $376,050
Equivalent units = Number of units completed and transferred+ Ending inventory
= 150,000 units + 32,500 units
= 182,500 units
Cost per equivalent unit of material = Total cost of direct material / Equivalent units
= $376,050 / 182,500 units
= $2.06

Payton Inc. reports in its Year 7 annual report, sales of $6,544 million and cost of goods sold of $2,618 million. For next year, you project that sales will grow by 3% and that cost of goods sold percentage will be 1 percentage point higher. Projected cost of goods sold for Year 8 will be:
Answer:
The projected cost of goods sold is $2,763 million
Explanation:
The computation of the projected cost of goods sold for the year 8 is shown below:
The Projected cost of goods sold is
= ($6,544 × 1.03 × ($2,618 ÷ $6,544) + 1%)
= ($6,740 × (0.40 + 1%)
= $6,740 × 0.41
= $2,763 million
Hence, the projected cost of goods sold is $2,763 million
The same is to be considered
Assume General Electric Company agreed in May 2016 to construct a nuclear generator for NSTAR, a utility company serving the Boston area. General Electric Company estimated that its construction costs would be $960 million. The contract price of $1,200 million is to be paid as follows: $400 million at the time of signing; $400 million on December 31, 2016; and $400 million at completion in May 2017. General Electric incurred the following costs in constructing the generator: $384 million in 2016 and $576 million in 2017.
Required:
Compute the amount of General Electric's revenue, expense, and income for both 2016 and 2017, and for both years combined, under the cost-to-cost revenue recognition method. Enter dollar amounts in millions.
Answer:
date revenue costs
May 2016 $400
Dec. 2016 $400 $384 / $960 = 40%
May 2017 $400 $576 / $960 = 60%
Revenue recognized during 2016 = $1,200 x 40% = $480 million
Expenses recognized during 2016 = $384 million
Income recognized during 2016 = $480 - $384 = $96 million
Revenue recognized during 2017 = $1,200 x 60% = $720 million
Expenses recognized during 2017 = $576 million
Income recognized during 2017 = $720 - $576 = $144 million
Combined years:
Revenue recognized = $1,200 million
Expenses recognized = $960 million
Income recognized = $240 million
1. Accrual accounting is used by the vast majority of companies. *
O
True
O False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The accrual accounting system is one of the two methods of reporting or recording income and expenses. The other way is the cash system.
In the accrual method, income and expenses are accounted for when they were earned or incurred regardless of whether money changed hands. Sales are reported when goods are delivered, and the invoice is issued even if the customer has not paid.
The accrual system is the standard method of operating for many businesses, big and small. The accrual method matches revenue and income with the time of their respective economic events. The general accounting principles recommend the accrual accounting system for both the private and public sectors.

What are the limitations and risks of a marketing strategy that does not contemplate the responses of your competitors
Answer:
Throughout the clarification section following, the definition of the given query is explained.
Explanation:
Right, businesses face fierce competition through competitiveness throughout today's time, because it has become extremely necessary for organizations to develop a marketing campaign that makes companies contemplate consumer response.
After all, if any business marketing plan doesn't somehow anticipate competition reaction, then all these threats can occur:
Someone's brand sales should decline as consumers should choose the brand of their rivals. Your company's market position as well as business growth would decline as well as the brand's rivals will rise. Throughout the life cycle of the product, your company will hit the decline point. Your business's share price could decline.Definition of economic costs

Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $64,000 and $12,000, respectively. In addition to their salaries, they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $500 from corporate bonds. Marc contributed $2,500 to an individual retirement account, and Marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $1,500 (under a divorce decree effective June 1, 2005). Marc and Michelle have a 10-year-old son, Matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, Marc and Michelle are allowed to claim a $1,000 child tax credit for Matthew. Marc and Michelle paid $6,000 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $5,500 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the course of the year. (use the 2016 tax rate schedules).
1. What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle’s deductions from AGI?
2. What is Marc and Michelle’s taxable income?
3. What is Marc and Michelle’s taxable income?
Answer:
KINDLY CHECK EXPLANATION
Explanation:
Given that :
Marc's salary = 64000
Michelle's salary = 12000
Interest received from municipal bond = $350
Interest received from corporate bond = $500
TOTAL AMOUNT OF DEDUCTION FROM AGI:
ACCORDING TO 2016 TAX RATE : MARRIED FILING JOINTLY STANDARD DEDUCTION = $12,600 (higher than itemized deduction ($6000)
Dependency exemption = $4050 (2016 tax schedule)
Hence, total deduction from AGI = $(12600 + (3 * 4050)) = $24,750
Their Gross Income :
(Salary + interest from municipal and corporate bonds)
$(64000 + 12000 + 500) = $76,500
TAXABLE INCOME = Gross income - total debt deduction on AGI - (contribution to individual retirement + alimony paid to spouse)
TAXABLE INCOME = $(76,500 - 24750 - (2500 +1500))
$(76500 - 24750 - 4000) = $47750

2015 = $69,400 / $59,000 = 1.18
B. Quick ratio = (current assets - inventory) / current liabilities
2014 = ($63,316 - $26,822) / $56,755 = 0.64
2015 = ($69,400 - $28,100) / $59,000 = 0.7
C. Cash ratio times times = (cash + cash equivalents) / current liabilities
2014 = $23,046 / $56,755 = 0.41
2015 = $25,100 / $59,000 = 0.43
Asset utilization ratios:
D. Total asset turnover = net sales / average total assets
= $349,760 / [($398,011 + $434,000)/2] = 0.84
E. Inventory turnover times = COGS / average inventory
= $241,500 / [($26,822 + $28,100)/2] = 8.79
F. Receivables turnover = net sales / average accounts receivables
= $349,760 / [($13,448 + $16,200)/2] = 23.59
Long-term solvency ratios: 2014 2015
G. Total debt ratio = total liabilities / total assets
2014 = $135,755 / $398,011 = 0.34
2015 = $142,424 / $434,000 = 0.33
H. Debt–equity = total liabilities / total equity
2014 = $135,755 / $262,256 = 0.52
2015 = $142,424 / $291,576 = 0.49
I. Equity multiplier = assets / equity
2014 = $398,011 / $262,256 = 1.52
2015 = $434,000 / $291,576 = 1.49
J. Times interest earned = EBIT / interest expense
= $81,060 / $15,300 = 5.3
K. Cash coverage ratio = (EBIT + non cash expenses) / interest expense
= ($81,060 + $27,200) / $15,300 = 7.08
Profitability ratios:
L. Profit margin = net income / sales
= $49,320 / $349,760 = 0.14
M. Return on assets = net income / average total assets
= $49,320 / [($398,011 + $434,000)/2] = 0.12
N. Return on equity = net income / average total equity
= $49,320 / [($262,256 + $291,576)/2] = 0.18

when the business cycle or economic activity is declining the economy is said to be what
Answer:
Contraction
Explanation:
Contraction is when the level of economic activities in a country goes down. There is decreased productivity in the country, as indicated by a decline in the GDP value. At contraction, the economy will experience a drop in real incomes, retail sales, and industrial production. The unemployment rate begins to rise steadily as companies stop hiring while other lay-off workers due to reduced demand.

a worker produced four components during an 8-hour shift in which he earned $96. What is his labor cost per unit?
Answer:
$24
Explanation:
Labor cost per unit is the ratio of total labor expense for a period of time divided by the total number of units produced during that period of time. It is given by the formula:
Labor cost per unit = Total money earned during a specified period / number of components produced.
Hence using the formula above, the labor cost per unit of the worker is gotten to be:
Labor cost per unit = $96 / 4 components = $24
Mattola Company is giving each of its employees a holiday bonus of $200 on December 13, 20-- (a nonpayday). The company wants each employee's check to be $200. The supplemental tax percent is used.
Nobody has capped for OASDI prior to the bonus check.
a. What will be the gross amount of each bonus if each employee pays a state income tax of 2.8% (besides the other payroll taxes)? You may need to add one penny to the gross so that net bonus exactly equals $200. Round your calculations and final answers to the nearest cent.
b. What would the net amount of each bonus check be if the company did not gross-up the bonus? Round your intermediary calculations to the nearest cent.
Answer:
a. Gross amount of each bonus = $309.84
b. Net amount of each bonus = $129.10
Explanation:
Since the supplemental tax percent is used, the following are the relevant tax rates to be applied in the calculations:
STP = Supplemental tax percent = 25%
FICASO = Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) social security tax = 6.2%
FICAM = Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) Medicare tax = 1.45%.
SIT = State income tax = 2.8%
We therefore proceed as follows:
a. What will be the gross amount of each bonus if each employee pays a state income tax of 2.8% (besides the other payroll taxes)? You may need to add one penny to the gross so that net bonus exactly equals $200. Round your calculations and final answers to the nearest cent.
Given the tax rates above, the following formula is used to calculate the gross amount of each bonus:
Gross amount of each bonus = Holiday bonus amount / (100% - STP - FICASO - FICAM - SIT) …… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Gross amount of each bonus = $200/ (100% - 25% - 6.20% - 1.45% - 2.8%)
Gross amount of each bonus = $200 / 64.55%
Gross amount of each bonus = $309.837335398916
To the nearest cent which implies to two decimal places, we have:
Gross amount of each bonus = $309.84
b. What would the net amount of each bonus check be if the company did not gross-up the bonus? Round your intermediary calculations to the nearest cent.
The net amount of each bonus can be calculated using the following formula:
Net amount of each bonus = Holiday bonus amount * (100% - STP - FICASO - FICAM - SIT) …… (2)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (2), we have:
Net amount of each bonus = $200 * (100% - 25% - 6.20% - 1.45% - 2.8%)
Net amount of each bonus = $200 * 64.55%
Net amount of each bonus = $129.10
The Talbot Corporation makes wheels that it uses in the production of bicycles. Talbot's costs to produce 180,000 wheels annually are:
Direct materials $36,000
Direct labor $54,000
Variable manufacturing overhead $27,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead $66,000
An outside supplier has offered to sell Talbot similar wheels for $0.80 per wheel. If the wheels are purchased from the outside supplier, $21,000 of annual fixed overhead could be avoided and the facilities now being used could be rented to another company for $51,000 per year. Direct labor is a variable cost. If Talbot chooses to buy the wheel from the outside supplier, then annual net operating income would: __________
Answer:
If the company chooses to buy the wheels, income will increase by $69,000.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total relevant cost of production:
Relevant cost of production:
Total cost= direct material + direct labor + avoidable overhead
Total cost= 36,000 + 54,000 + (27,000 + 45,000)
Total cost= $162,000
Now, the total cost of buying the wheels:
Total cost= 180,000*0.8 - 51,000= $93,000
Difference= 93,000 - 162,000= -$69,000
If the company chooses to buy the wheels, income will increase by $69,000.
Van Frank Telecommunications has a patent on a cellular transmission process.
1. The company has amortized the $19.80 million cost of the patent on a straight-line basis, since it was acquired at the beginning of 2012.
2. Due to rapid technological advances in the industry, management decided that the patent would benefit the company over a total of six years rather than the nine-year life being used to amortize its cost.
3. The decision was made at the end of 2016 (before adjusting and closing entries).
What is the appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2016 to reflect the revised estimate.
(If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field. Enter your answers in millions rounded to 2 decimal places (i.e., 5,500,000 should be entered as 5.50).) Record the adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2016.
Answer:
Dr Amortization expense 5.50
Cr Accumulated Amortization - Patent 5.50
Explanation:
Preparation of Journal entries to Record the adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2016
Van Frank Telecommunications
Dr Amortization expense 5.50
Cr Accumulated Amortization - Patent 5.50
(To record amortization of patent)
Calculation for the Amortized expense
Cost of the asset $19.80
Annual amortization $2.20
($19.80 / 9 years)
Amortization till date (2012-2015) $8.80
($2.20*4)
Unamortized value ($19.80-$8.80) $11.00
Remaining life 2 years
Amortized expense ($11.00/2) $5.50
Debiting $1.65 million from Patent Amortization Expense and crediting $1.65 million from Accumulated Patent Amortization would be the adjusting entry.
After the estimate revision, the yearly amortization will be $3.30 million ($19.80 million cost of the patent x 6 years).
Debiting Patent Amortization Expense by $1.65 million and crediting Accumulated Patent Amortization by $1.65 million would be the adjustment item for 2016. The projected useful life of the patent has changed, necessitating an adjustment entry to the annual amortization expense, which is reflected in this item.
