Answer:
1.Dr Income Tax Expense 22
Cr Income Tax Payable 16
Cr Deferred Tax Liability 6
2.Net Income of Ameen in 2016 = $23
Explanation
1.Preparation of the appropriate journal entry to record Ameena 2016 income taxes
Calculation for Pretax accounting income
Pretax accounting income = $45
Less:Excess Depreciation as per tax = ($5)
($20-$13)-($30-$28)
$7-$5
=$5
Taxable Income = $40
Income tax for the year = 40 × 40%
Income tax for the year= $16
Calculation for Deferred Tax Expense for the year 2016
Deferred Tax Expense for the year 2016 = ($28 - $13) ×40%
Deferred Tax Liability= $15 ×40%
Deferred Tax Liability= $6
Calculation for Income Tax Expense
Income Tax Expense = $16 + $6
Income Tax Expense= $22
Therefore the appropriate journal entry to record Ameena 2016 income taxes will be:
Dr Income Tax Expense $22
Cr Income Tax Payable $16
Cr Deferred Tax Liability $6

The Act can take several forms, one of which is discrimination based on national origin.
The Unique Bookshelf Company is considering the purchase of a custom delivery van costing approximately $50,000. Using a discount rate of 20%, the present value of future cost savings is estimated at $51,200. To yield the 20% return, the actual cost of the van should not exceed the $50,000 estimate by more than:
Answer:
$1,200
Explanation:
Given that
Purchase of a customer delivery van = $50,000
discount rate = 20%
Present value of future cost savings = $51,200
Yield = 20%
Based on the above information, as per the net present value the initial cost of the equipment should not be more than the present value of cash inflows i.e. $51,200
So the more than amount is
= $51,200 - $50,000
= $1,200
The present value is the monetary value of the future cash inflows or outflows. It is determined based upon the differences in the discount rates in the future that is estimated as per the current growth rates.
If the company wants to yield a 20% return then the actual cost must not be estimated at more than $1,200.
Computation:
GIven,
Purchase cost =$50,000
Discount rate and yield rate =20%
Present value of future cost savings =$51,200
[tex]\rm{Exceeding\; Amount}=Present\;Value-Purchase\;Cost\\\\=\$51,200-\$50,000\\\\=\$1,200[/tex]
As per the net present value of the van, the initial cost that is the purchase price of the van should not be more than the present value of the future cost savings or the present value of the future cash inflows.
In this case, the present value of $50,000 cannot exceed this limit.
Therefore, in this case, the exceeding amount is $1,200.

A company uses the weighted average method for inventory costing. At the start of a period the production department had 48,000 units in beginning Work in Process inventory which were 36% complete; the department completed and transferred 171,000 units. At the end of the period, 18,000 units were in the ending Work in Process inventory and are 71% complete. The production department had conversion costs in the beginning work in process inventory of $93,000 and total conversion costs added during the period are $726,700. Compute the conversion cost per equivalent unit.
Answer:
the conversion cost per equivalent unit is $4.46.
Explanation:
Step 1 : Computation of equivalent units of production for conversion costs
Units completed and transferred (171,000 × 100%) = 171,000
Units in the ending work in process (18,000 × 71%) = 12,780
Equivalent units of production for conversion costs = 183,780
Step 2: Determine the Total Cost of Conversion incurred during the period
Conversion Costs in Opening Work In Process = $93,000
Add conversion costs added during the period = $726,700
Total Cost of Conversion incurred during the period = $819,700
Step 3 : Calculate the conversion cost per equivalent unit.
Conversion cost per equivalent unit = Total Cost of Conversion ÷ Equivalent units of production
= $819,700 ÷ 183,780
= $4.46
Opera Corp. uses the dollar-value LIFO method of computing its inventory cost. Data for the past three years is as follows: Dec 31, 20X0, Inventory at end-of-year prices = $65,000 (price index = 1.00); Dec 31, 20X1, Inventory at end-of-year prices = $126,000 (price index = 1.05); Dec 31, 20X2, Inventory at end-of-year prices = $135,000 (price index = 1.10). What is the 20X0 inventory balance using dollar-value LIFO?
a. $65,000.
b. $61,904.
c. $122,727.
d. $135,000
Answer:
a. $65,000.
Explanation:
since the price index for year 20x0 is 1, then the inventory balance using dollar value LIFO = $65,000 / 1 = $65,000.
Dollar value LIFO works in cost layers, or pools of inventory.
E.g. the 20x1 inventory would be worth:
($126,000 / 1.05) = $120,000
($120,000 - $65,000) x 1.05 = $57,750
value of 20x1 inventory = $65,000 + $57,750 = $122,750

yak has a selling price of $110 per unit, and variable cost per unit of $45. At a sales volume of 350 units, net income is $10,932. If sales are 425 units, net income will be closest to: Group of answer choices
Answer:
Net income= $15,807
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $110 per unit
Unitary variable cost= $45
At a sales volume of 350 units, net income is $10,932.
First, we need to calculate the fixed costs:
Fixed costs= total contribution margin - net income
Fixed costs= 350*(110 - 45) - 10,932
Fixed costs= $11,818
Now, the net income for 435 units:
Net income= total contribution margin - fixed costs
Net income= 425*65 - 11,818
Net income= $15,807

Willco Inc manufactures electronic parts. They are analyzing their monthly maintenance costs to determine the best way to budget these costs in the future. They have collected the following data for the last 6 months: Machine Hours Maintenance Costs January 30,000 $61,946 February 40,000 $74,500 March 37,500 $65,900 April 39,000 $68,750 May 42,300 $74,000 June 35,000 $64,500 Using the high-low method, what is the fixed cost component of the monthly maintenance.
Answer:
Fixed costs= $31,312
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
January 30,000 $61,946
February 40,000 $74,500
March 37,500 $65,900
April 39,000 $68,750
May 42,300 $74,000
June 35,000 $64,500
To calculate the fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (74,500 - 61,946) / (42,300 - 30,000)
Variable cost per unit= $1.021
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 74,500 - (1.021*42,300)
Fixed costs= $31,312
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 61,946 - (1.021*30,000)
Fixed costs= $31,316

Explanation:
1. The older generation (45 and above)
Positive experience:
They are very calm, patient, and motherly/fatherly. They are meticulous and work with a good mind.
Negative experience:
They can be slow or weak at times. They are seldom not so knowledgeable about the stall operations and have to refer customers to younger members of staff when they (customers) have extra needs.
2. The middle-aged generation (32-44)
Positive experience:
They are the most knowledgeable about stall operations; especially due to prior experience as employees in the retail shopping industry. They are the most enthusiastic about keeping their jobs.
Negative experience:
They can be bossy or rude to other employees at times; since they have the most experience or knowledge and occupy the major positions. They are strictly professional and may not give much empathy to customers.
3. The youths and freshers (19-31)
Positive experience:
They are the most agile and willing to go on errands (both for other employees and for customers). They have the most technical expertise. They are energetic and smart.
Negative experience:
They often exhibit a nonchalant attitude. They may be late to work - for those who don't really fix their minds on the job. They easily change jobs.

Answer:
a) $10.48
b) $11
c) option b would make investors better off
Explanation:
stock's current market price = $11
dividend per stock = $285,000,000 / 549,000,000 stocks = $0.5191
ex-dividend price per stock = stock's current market price - dividend per stock = $11 - $0.52 = $10.48
in a perfect capital market, the repurchase of stocks should not change Natsam's stock value, so it should remain at $11 per stock.
part c is missing, but I looked for similar questions and found this:
"c) In a perfect capital market, which policy in part (a) or (b) makes investors in the firm better off?"

Here I Sit Sofas has 6,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a price of $83 per share. There are 710 bonds that mature in 19 years with a coupon rate of 5.7 percent paid semiannually. The bonds have a par value of $1,000 each and sell at 94 percent of par. The company also has 4,900 shares of preferred stock outstanding at a price of $36 per share. What is the capital structure weight of the debt
Answer:
49.7392%
Explanation:
The computation of the capital structure weight of the debt is shown below:
But before that we need to determine the following calculations
Equity market value is
= number of shares × price per share
= 6,000 shares × $83
= 498,000
Current debt value = number of bonds × price per bond
= 710 × (94% × 1000)
= 667,400
Preferred stock value is
= number of shares × price per share
= 4,900 × $36
= 176,400
Now Total capital is
= common equity value + debt value + preferred stock value
= $498,000 + $667,400 + $176,400
= $1,341,800
And finally
Weight of debt is
= debt value ÷ total capital
= $667,400 ÷ $1,341,800
= 0.497392
= 49.7392%

c. The longer the supply chain the greater the economies of scale and the better the profit margins.
d. Supply chains should consider the needs of consumers provided those needs are consistent with marketing strategies.
e. Supply chain managers often need to make trade-offs between efficiency and responsiveness.
Answer:
d. Supply chains should consider the needs of consumers provided those needs are consistent with marketing strategies.
Explanation:
In order for supply chain customer service to be effective, it is necessary to focus on customer needs and these needs must be aligned with the company's marketing strategies.
In other words, each stage of the supply chain must operate in an integrated manner, so that each process is synergistic and so that the final consumer can receive the product at the right time, in the right quantity and in the right quality. Therefore, supply chain management will improve each step of the process, guaranteeing the quality of the processes, the reduction of time, the reduction of costs and waste and ensuring the continuous improvement of the process, which will make the product go through each channel effectively, generating value and strengthening the relationship between the company and the consumer.

Tyler Smithson owns Joe on the Run, a small chain of three cof- fee shops, all of which are facing a challenge that is common to most service businesses: They have to deal with highly variable demand, with two or three very busy times each day. If a waiting line develops, we can assume that a constraint exists somewhere in the product or service delivery. Typical workstations behind the counter include the barista station (where specialty drinks are made), the drive-thru station, and the cashier station. Because the goal of the company is to satisfy the most customers pos- sible (and thus increase profits), a constraint at one of these workstations must be addressed quickly.
1. What can be done to improve capacity?
2. What can be done to improve efficiency?
3. What could be done at a store level to improve the performance of the business?
Answer:
A) To improve capacity the constraint that must be addressed is the preparation and dispatch constraint which is similar to all three shops.to address this a central preparation / dispatch center that serves all three shops the needed products should be created independently, with the primary purpose of mass preparation/dispatch to the coffee shops and not attending to customers which hampers the production of the three shops.
B ) To improve efficiency: packaging should be made ready at the drive thru station so that customer who drive in can quickly pick up the package without having to queue up for long. also consider preparing some orders on the menu that attracts the most customers ahead of time this way the queue would be reduced.
C ) At store level to improve performance proper stock taking should be essential to ensure there is enough products on the menu to serve to the customers

An auto manufacturer uses 500 tons of steel per day. The company pays $1100 per ton of steel purchased, and each order incurs a fixed cost of $2250. The holding cost is $275 per ton of steel per year. Using the EOQ model, calculate the optimal order quantity, cycle length, and average cost per year
Answer:
economic order quantity (EOQ) = √(2SD/H)
D = annual demand = I will assume that the company works during 250 days per year (from Monday to Friday) = 250 x 500 = 125,000
S = order cost = $2,250
H = holding cost = $275
EOQ = √[(2 x 2,250 x 125,000) / 275] = 1,430.19 ≈ 1,430 tons
cycle length:
125,000 / 1,430 = 87.4 purchases per year
365 days / 87.4 = place a purchase order every 4.2 days
total annual cost:
total costs = (87.4 x $2,250) + (125,000 x $1,100) + (1,430/2 x $275) = $196,650 + $137,500,000 + $196,625 = $137,893,275
Management anticipates fixed costs of $72,700 and variable costs equal to 44% of sales. What will pretax income equal if sales are $327,000?
a) $143,880.
b) $254,300.
c) $110,420.
d) $71,180.
e) $189,090.
Answer:
$110,420
Explanation:
Given that;
Fixed cost = $72,700
Variable costs = $44%
Sales = $327,000
The formula for pretax income is
= Sales - variable costs - fixed costs
= $327,000 - $143,880 - $72,700
= $110,420
Pretax income is $110,420
Achieving high product quality lowers operating costs because of the effect of quality on:___________.
a. shipping costs
b. employee productivity
c. corporate-level planning
d. customer satisfaction
Answer:
Option C, corporate-level planning, is the right answer.
Explanation:
Option C, “corporate-level planning” is the correct answer because it is the corporate planning according to which every employee has to work. If the quality of planning is good then the firm will produce higher output with lower operating cost and if the planning is not good or suitable then the firm can increase the productivity but operating cost may go very high. Therefore, option C is right.

Data concerning A Corporation's single product appear below:
Per Unit Percent of Sales
Selling price $ 160 100%
Variable expenses 48 30%
Contribution margin $ 112 70%
Fixed expenses are $1,054,000 per month. The company is currently selling 9,800 units per month.
The marketing manager would like to introduce sales commissions as an incentive for the sales staff. The marketing manager has proposed a commission of $8 per unit. In exchange, the sales staff would accept an overall decrease in their salaries of $100,000 per month. The marketing manager predicts that introducing this sales incentive would increase monthly sales by 500 units.
What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change?
Answer:
Effect on income= $73,600 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Contribution margin $ 112
Increase in variable cost= $8 per unit.
Decrease in fixed costs= $100,000 per month.
Increase in sales unit= 500 units
To calculate the effect on income, we need to use the following formula:
Effect on income= effect on total contribution margin + decrease in fixed costs
Effect on income= 500*104 - 9,800*8 + 100,000
Effect on income= $73,600 increase

firm z expects to earn $5 per share next year the firms roe is 15% and its plowback ratio is 70% if the firms market capitalization rate is 12% what is the present value of growth opportunities
Answer:
present value of growth opportunities is −$8.34
Explanation:
Value with no growth = expected earning / capitalization rate
Value with no growth = $5/0.12 = $41.67
Growth rate = retention rato * ROE
Growth rate = 0.7 * 15 = 10.5%
Value with growth = $5*(1-0.7)/(0.15-0.105) = $33.33
Therefore present value of growth opportunities = Value with growth - Value with no growth
PVGO = $33.33-$41.67 = −$8.34

Assume the United States economy has the following:
• GDP is $18,500 billion down from $19,350 billion nine months ago.
• Unemployment is at 7.8% up from 4.2% nine months ago.
• Inflation is stable at 2.0%.
• MPC=0.75
• NRU=4.0%
• Target Inflation is 2.0%
Required:
a. Explain in detail the problem the country is facing. Include an analysis of both inflation and unemployment including whether the economy is in a recession or not.
b. What is the size of the GDP gap? Show the calculations.
c. Government could address the problem with either increasing government spending, cutting taxes or both. If the government decided to increase spending to address the problem, by how much should spending be increased? If the government decided to cut taxes to address the problem, by how much should taxes be cut? Show the calculations and provide explanations.
d. Should the government cut taxes or increase spending or some combination of both to address the problem?
e. What could happen to make the policy you recommended?
Answer:
Note: the e question is incomplete. The missing part is "you recommended in Question 4 ineffective?"
1. When the GDP has decreased, but the unemployment has increased, there is slowdown in the economy. Therefore, this slowdown combined with the stable inflation points that the economy is in recession.
2. GDP gap = Actual GDP - Potential GDP
GDP gap = $18,500 billion - $19,350 billion
GDP gap = -$850 billion
GDP gap is the difference between the actual and potential GDP.
3. Calculation of the government expenditure multiplier and tax multiplier
Government spending multiplier = 1 / (1-MPC)
Government spending multiplier = 1/(1-0.75)
Government spending multiplier = 1/0.25
Government spending multiplier = 4
Tax Multiplier = -MPC / (1-MPC)
Tax Multiplier = -0.75 / (1-0.75)
Tax Multiplier = -0.75 / 0.25
Tax Multiplier = -3
Calculation of the required increase in government spending
ΔG = ΔY/Government spending multiplier
ΔG = $850 billion / 4
ΔG = $212.5 billion
Calculation of the required cut in taxes
ΔY = Tax multiplier * ΔT
ΔT = ΔY / Government spending multiplier
ΔT = $850 billion / -3
ΔT = -$283.33 billion
Therefore, the government spending should increase by $212.5 billion and taxes should cut by $283.33 billion.
4. The government should opt for increasing government spending, this is because the government spending multiplier is greater than the tax multiplier.
5. If there is not direct impact on inflation after the increase in government spending
