Answer:
d. 6.4%.
Explanation:
Even though 70% of the benefits are allocated to 15 key employees (and also co-owners), non-key employees must receive a minimum benefit.
This minimum benefit = 2% x the number of years in service (for the purpose of the plan) = 2% x 4 = 8%. But this minimum benefit is reduced depending on the % of vesting which in this case = 4 years /5 years = 0.8.
total benefit = 8% x 0.8 = 6.4%
Suppose that you start working for a company at age 25. You are offered two rather unlikely, but quite enticing, retirement plans from which you are allowed to choose one. [Round all answers to the nearest dollar.]Retirement plan 1: When you retire, you will receive $20,000 for each year of service.Retirement plan 2: When you start work, the company deposits $2500 into a savings account that is guaranteed to pay a yearly rate of 18%. When you retire, the account will be closed and the balance given to you.A. Determine the amount you would receive under plan 1, if you retired at age 55.
Answer:
Total amount= $600,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Suppose that you start working for a company at age 25.
Option 1:
$20,000 for each year of work.
Number of years of service= 55 - 25= 30 years
Now, the total retirement plan:
Total amount= 30*20,000= $600,000

Answer: b. Innovation meets revolution. We create value of our customers around the world through breakthrough designs that lead to unique high-performance products.
Explanation:
Baldwin creates value around the world for a variety of customers. Using breakthrough designs, they are able to offer low prices to domestic consumers, premium products across the globe, low technology products for the people who prefer it and high technology for those who prefer that as well.
The first option is wrong because the global customers of Baldwin are not mentioned.
The third is wrong as well because they do not only build premium products as they build low technology products as well.
The fourth option is also wrong because it would seem that the low price is only offered domestically not across the world.
Dacosta Corporation had only one job in process on May 1. The job had been charged with $2,400 of direct materials, $6,966 of direct labor, and $10,104 of manufacturing overhead cost. The company assigns overhead cost to jobs using the predetermined overhead rate of $19.60 per direct labor-hour. During May, the following activity was recorded: Raw materials (all direct materials): Beginning balance $ 9,100 Purchased during the month $ 38,600 Used in production $ 39,900 Labor: Direct labor-hours worked during the month 2,500 Direct labor cost incurred $ 25,110 Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred $ 33,900 Inventories: Raw materials, May 30 ? Work in process, May 30 $ 17,093 Work in process inventory on May 30 contains $3,849 of direct labor cost. Raw materials consist solely of items that are classified as direct materials. The cost of goods manufactured for May was:
Answer:
$116,387
Explanation:
Opening work in process = Direct materials + Direct Labor + Overheads
= $2,400 + $6,966 + $10,104
= $19,470
Adding up all the cost for the period, we'll have;
Raw materials = $39,900 used in production
Direct labor cost = $25,110
Overheads to be applied on predetermined rate = 2,500 × $19.6
= $49,000
Total cost incurred including beginning work in process = $133,480
Less: Closing work in process $17,093
Total cost of goods manufactured = $116,387

b. The cost of the building should be recorded by Wilson Co. is:_________
Answer:
a. $1,420,000
b. $4,514,800
Explanation:
When it comes to fixed assets, all costs that directly helped make the asset available for use are to be capitalized.
Cost of Land
= Purchase Value + Cost Incurred to Tear Down 2 Buildings + Legal Fees + Title Insurance Cost + Assessment Cost - Salvage
= 1,300,000 + 110,000 + 5,000 + 3,500 + 9,500 - 8,000
= $1,420,000
Cost of Building
= Architect's Fees + Liability Insurance Cost + Excavation Cost + Contractor's Payment + Interest Cost

The Hampton Inn in Stow, Ohio, has two sets of employees, the front desk staff and the housekeeping staff. There is always one front desk clerk on duty at all times, 24/7, and all of the front desk clerks make $8.00 an hour.The housekeeping staff is also paid $8.00 an hour, but they are paid for the number of hours that it takes them to clean the rooms in the hotel. Each room takes 30 minutes to clean, but if a room has not been used the night before, it does not have to be cleaned, so the housekeeping staff work fewer hours on days when the hotel is not as full.The hotel calculates its profitability on a per-room basis, since they have some costs that vary with the number of rooms that are occupied on a particular night. Right now, their costs other than staff wages are marketing expenses of $5,400 per month, management salaries of $60,000 per month, and general overhead (costs like utilities and insurance) of $30,000 per month.The hotel has 50 rooms, all of which rent for the same price per night.Assuming a 30-day month, what are the hotel’s total fixed costs per day? (Be careful, read all of the cost information carefully and think before you answer this question.)What is the hotel’s variable cost per room?If the hotel fills all of its rooms for the night, what price should they charge to break even?What price should they charge to break even with only 70% of the hotel’s rooms sold for the night?What price should they charge to earn a profit margin of 25% when 70% of the hotel’s rooms are sold for the night?
Answer:
To get total fixed cost
We calculate all expenses
Salaries of clerks = 24hours x 8
= 192
Marketing = 5400/30 = 180
Management = 60000/30 days = 2000
General overhead = 30000/30 = 1000
Total = 180+192+3000+2000
= $3372 a day
2.
It takes half hour to clean a room. And cleaner charges 8 dollars for a full hour.
8x1/2 = $4
3
Question says total rooms = 50
TFC = 3372
Contribution from 1 room
= 3372/50
= $67.44
Price per room = 66.44 + 4
= $71.44
4.
70% occupied rooms = 0.70 x 50
= 35 rooms occupied
3372/35
= $96.34
Charge for a room = 96.34 + 4
= $100.34
5.
Profit margin of 25% given 70% occupancy
3372+(4*35)
= $3512
Percentage on cost = 33.33%
O.3333x3512
= $1171
1172+3512
= $4683
Price for a room = 4683/35
= $133.8

c. OSHA compliance officers notify employers a month in advance before the inspection.
d. The OSHA compliance officer will seek a restraining order from the U.S. District Court, even if the inspection reveals that the problem is minor.
e. If an OSH Act violation results in citations, an employer must post each citation in a prominent place near the location of the violation.
Answer:
The answer is "Option e".
Explanation:
In the question, the choice e is correct because whenever an infringement of the OSH Act contributes to citations, the contractor should place any ticket in such a conspicuous place near the infringement.
All other alternatives weren’t true in support of OSHA but only when a violation of OSHA contributes to quotations should an employee post each quotation at a prominent position relative to the place of the violation.
Gilberto Company currently manufactures 74,000 units per year of one of its crucial parts. Variable costs are $2.40 per unit, fixed costs related to making this part are $84,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $71,000 per year. Allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys the part. Gilberto is considering buying the part from a supplier for a quoted price of $3.65 per unit guaranteed for a three-year period. Calculate the total incremental cost of making 74,000 and buying 74,000 units. Should the company continue to manufacture the part, or should it buy the part from the outside supplier?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Incremental Costs to Make
Particulars Relevant Amount Relevant Total Relevant
per Unit Fixed Costs Costs
Variable cost per unit $2.40 $177,600
(74,000 × $2.40)
Fixed manufacturing costs $84,000 $84,000
Total incremental cost to make $261,600
Incremental Costs to Buy
Particulars Relevant Amount Relevant Total Relevant
per Unit Fixed Costs Costs
Purchase price per unit $3.65 $270,100
(74,000 × $3.65)
Total incremental cost to buy $270,100
As the cost is minimize in the case of the making part so Gilberto should Make the part

g The Dynatech Brewing Company is a small craft brewer that produces five standard varieties of beer. The beers sell for $6 per six-pack, and the company currently sells 7,000 six-packs per month. The company is considering producing a seasonal beer that will be sold in October, November, and December. The company estimates that at $6 per six-pack, the company will sell 1,400 six-packs. At $7 per six-pack, sales will be 700 six-packs. The company also estimates that sales of the seasonal beer will eat into sales of its standard items. Specifically, for every 700 six-packs of the seasonal beer that are sold, 210 six-packs of the standard varieties will not be sold. The variable production costs of all beers is $1.70 per six-pack. Calculate the incremental profit associated with the two selling prices under consideration for the seasonal beer (i.e., $6 and $7 per six-pack). (Enter loss using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).) $6 per six-pack $7 per six-pack Incremental profit/(loss) $enter a dollar amount $enter a dollar amount eTextbook and Media Should Dynatech Brewing produce the beer

Answer:
1. Which firm has a greater FCF (free cash flow)?
(A) Firm A2. What is firm A’s (annual) tax shield?
(B) $0.83. What is firm B’s (annual) tax shield?
(C) $3.2Explanation:
since firm A's debt is $20, its value is $100, then its equity = $80
since firm B's debt is $80, its value is $100, then its equity = $20
Firm A's cash flow = (EBIT - interest expense) x (1 - tax rate) = [$10 - ($20 x 10%)] x 0.6 = $4.80
Firm B's cash flow = (EBIT - interest expense) x (1 - tax rate) = [$10 - ($80 x 10%)] x 0.6 = $1.20
Firm A's annual tax shield = taxable interest x tax rate = ($20 x 10%) x 40% = $0.80
Firm B's annual tax shield = taxable interest x tax rate = ($80 x 10%) x 40% = $3.20
babysits on the weekends for extra money. Suppose that three neighbors with children are interested in paying Elizabeth to babysit their children. In particular, Mr. and Dr. Brown would be willing to pay $31 to have Elizabeth babysit their children, Mr. Smith would be willing to pay $28 for Elizabeth's babysitting services, and Professor Jones and Mr. Jones would be willing to pay $22 to have her watch their children. If Elizabeth offers to babysit each set of children for an evening for $22, what will be consumer surplus, considering the three sets of children combined? $nothing. (Enter your response using an integer.)
Answer:
$15
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is the price the consumer pay for good/service minus the amount the consumer is willing to pay for it.
✓Mr. and Dr. Brown would be willing to pay $31
✓Mr. Smith would be willing to pay $28
✓Professor Jones and Mr. Jones would be willing to pay $22
Elizabeth PRICE for babysitting each set of children for an evening = $22
Consumer surplus= Σ (price that the consumer is willing to pay- Price of the good/service is sold)
= [(31-22)+(28-22)+(22-22)]
= 9+6+0
=$15
Hence, Consumer surplus is $15
Causwell Company began 2021 with 12,000 units of inventory on hand. The cost of each unit was $5.00. During 2021 an additional 32,000 units were purchased at a single unit cost, and 22,000 units remained on hand at the end of 2021 (22,000 units therefore were sold during 2021). Causwell uses a periodic inventory system. Cost of goods sold for 2021, applying the average cost method, is $118,800. The company is interested in determining what cost of goods sold would have been if the FIFO or LIFO methods were used.
Required:
a. Determine the cost of goods sold for 2018 using the FIFO method.
b. Determine the cost of goods sold for 2018 using the LIFO method.
Answer:
a) COGS under FIFO = $110,340
b) COGS under LIFO = $125,850
Explanation:
beginning inventory 12,000 units x 5 = $60,000
purchases 32,000 x ? = $?
ending inventory = 22,000 units
COGS applying weighted average = $118,800
total units sold = 12,000 + 32,000 - 22,000 = 20,000
cost per unit sold = $5.94
total cost for 44,000 units = $261,360
cost of purchased units = ($261,360 - $60,000) = $201,360
cost per unit purchased = $6.2925
COGS under LIFO = 20,000 x $6.2925 = $125,850
COGS under FIFO = (12,000 x $5) + (8,000 x $6.2925) = $110,340
Assume that Gorilla Corporation's capital loss carryforward is $27,000 and that Gorilla will be able to use $11,000 of the carryover to offset capital gains in 2021 and the remaining $16,000 to offset capital gains in 2022.
Required:
Determine the tax savings of the $105,000 long-term capital loss recognized in 2020.
Assume a discount rate of 5%. The present value factors at 5% are as follows:
1.000 for 2017-2020;
0.9524 for 2021
0.9070 for 2022.
Gorilla Corporation's marginal income tax rate is 34% for all tax years prior to 2018. In present value terms, the tax savings of the $105,000 long-term capital loss recognized in 2020 is $________ .
Answer:
$95,283.09
Explanation:
The computation of the long term capital loss recognized for the year 2020 is shown below:
As we know that
Present value = Future value ÷ (1 + interest rate)^number of years
Present value = $105,000 ÷ (1 + 0.05)^2
= $95,283.09
hence, the long term capital loss recognized is $95,283.09
We simply applied the above formula
4. Ellen contracts to buy six cases of vintage Fertile Valley wine from Grapes & Vines Winery for $1,200. The contract states that delivery is to be made at Ellen’s residence "on or before May 1, to be used for daughter's wedding reception on May 2." On May 1, Grapes & Vines delivery van is involved in an accident, no wine is delivered that day, and no one from Grapes & Vines tells Ellen. On the morning of May 2, Ellen buys the wine from Happy Hill Winery. That afternoon, just before the reception, Grapes & Vines tenders delivery of the wine at Ellen’s residence. She refuses tender\delivery. Grapes & Vines sues her for breach of contract. How is the court most likely to rule
Answer: In Ellen's favor
Explanation:
A component of the contract between Ellen and Grapes & Vines was breached which was that the wine was to be delivered "on or before May 1''. It was delivered on the 2nd which was a breach of contract which means that the contract can be voided.
If Grapes and Vines uses the defense that their van broke down and therefore it is a care of extraordinary circumstances, all efforts should have been made to contact Ellen to explain this situation. This was not done so Ellen was within her right to cancel the contract.

What is the purpose of a W-2 form?
Acme Inc. has 200 total employees, 150 of which are nonexcludable employees. Ten employees are highly compensated. Seven of the 10 highly compensated and 100 of the 140 nonhighly compensated employees are covered under Acme's qualified plan. The average accrued benefits for the highly compensated is 3% and the average accrued benefit for the nonhighly compensated is 1.5%. Which of the following statements is true regarding coverage? The Plan Passes the ratio percentage test. The plan passes the average benefits test. a. Both 1 and 2. b. 1 only. c. Neither 1 nor 2. d. 2 only.
Answer:
b. 1 only.
The Plan Passes the ratio percentage test.Explanation:
the ratio percentage test = ratio of non-HCE / ratio of HCE ≥ 70%
ratio percentage test = (100/140) / (7/10) = 0.71/0.7 = 1.02 or 102% ≥ 70% ✓ passed
the average benefits test = 1.5% / 3% = 0.5 or 50% ≤ 70% X failed
This means that the highly compensated employees receive disproportionately high benefits from the plan.
You decide to invest $100,000 in cryptocurrencies and you use that amount to buy bitcoin. Your bitcoin appreciate by 30% in one month, at which point you liquidate half your position for cash, which you do not reinvest. Bitcoin appreciates by another 25% during the second month and you sell an additional 40% of your holdings. The cryptocurrency then falls by 60% in the third month, at which point you liquidate your entire position for cash.
What is your dollar weighted monthly return?
Answer: 19%
Explanation:
