Explanation:
Here is the complete question
Joe quits his computer programming job, where he was earning a salary of $50,000year, to start his own computer software business in a building that he owns and was previously renting out for $24,000/year. In his first year of business he has the following expenses: salary to himself, $40,000; rent, $0; other expenses, $25,000.
Find the accounting cost and economic cost associated with Joe's computer software business.
There are two types of costs
1. Economic cost or Implicit cost or opportunity cost : Implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives. It is used in calculating economic profit
By starting his business, joe is forgoing his income and the rent he could have earned on his building
$50,000+ $24,000 = 74,000
2. Explicit cost : It includes the amount expended in running the business. It is used in calculating accounting profit
They include rent , salary and cost of raw materials
40,000+ 25,000 = 65,000
Current operating income for Bay Area Cycles Co. is $26,000. Selling price per unit is $100, the contribution margin ratio is 25% and fixed expense is $104,000. Required: 1. Calculate Bay Area Cycle's breakeven point in units and total sales dollars. Break-even units Break-even dollars 2. Calculate Bay Area Cycle's margin of safety and margin of safety ratio.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= 100*0.25
Unitary contribution margin= $25
Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units and dollars:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 104,000 / 25
Break-even point in units= 4,160
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 104,000 / 0.25
Break-even point (dollars)= $416,000
Finally, the margin of safety in dollars as a ratio:
Current sales= (26,000 + 104,000) / 25
Current sales= 5,200
Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)
Margin of safety= (5,200*100 - 416,000)
Margin of safety= $104,000
Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level
Margin of safety ratio= 104,000 / 520,000
Margin of safety ratio= 0.2 = 20%

The demand for aloe vera hand lotion, one of numerous products manufactured by Smooth Skin Care Products Inc., has dropped sharply because of recent competition from a similar product. The company's chemists are currently completing tests of various new formulas, and it is anticipated that the manufacture of a superior product can be started on December 1, one month in the future. No changes will be needed in the present production facilities to manufacture the new product because only the mixture of the various materials will be changed.
The controller has been asked by the president of the company for advice on whether to continue production during November or to suspend the manufacture of aloe vera hand lotion until December 1. The controller has assembled the following pertinent data:
Sales (400,000 units) $32,000,000
Cost of goods sold 28,330,000
Gross profit $3,670,000
Selling and administrative expenses 4,270,000
Loss from operations ($600,000)
The production costs and selling and administrative expenses, based on production of 400,000 units in October, are as follows:
Direct materials $15per unit
Direct labor 17per unit
Variable manufacturing cost 35per unit
Variable selling and administrative expenses 10 per unit
Fixed manufacturing cost $1,530,000 for October
Fixed selling and administrative expenses 270,000 for October
Sales for November are expected to drop about 20% below those of the preceding month. No significant changes are anticipated in the fixed costs or variable costs per unit. No extra costs will be incurred in discontinuing operations in the portion of the plant associated with aloe vera hand lotion. The inventory of aloe vera hand lotion at the beginning and end of November is expected to be inconsequential.
Required:
Prepare an estimated income statement in absorption costing form for November for aloe vera hand lotion, assuming that production continues during the month.
Answer:
Estimated loss from operations for aloe vera hand lotion in November = -$534,000.
Explanation:
The following calculations are done first:
Direct materials per unit = $15
Direct labor per unit = $17
Variable manufacturing cost per unit = $35
Fixed manufacturing cost per unit = Fixed manufacturing cost for October / Number of units in October = $1,530,000 / 400,000 = $3.825
Cost of goods sold per unit = Product cost per unit = Direct materials per unit + Direct labor per unit + Variable manufacturing cost per unit + Fixed manufacturing cost per unit = $15 + $17 + $35 + $3.825 = $70.825
Also, we have:
Expected sales in unit for November = Sales in unit for October * (100% - Expected percentage drop in sales) = 400,000 * (100% - 20%) = 320,00 units
Selling price per unit = Sales in October / Units sold in October = $32,000,000 / 400,000 = $80
Variable selling and administrative expenses per unit = $10
Fixed selling and administrative expenses for October = $270,000
Based on the above calculations, an estimated income statement in absorption costing form for November for aloe vera hand lotion can be prepared as follows:
Smooth Skin Care Products Inc.

Gross profit 2,936,000
Selling and administrative expenses:
Variable ($10 * 320,000) (3,200,000)
Fixed (270,000)
Loss from operations (534,000)
Therefore, we have:

What happens to the price of a three-year annual coupon paying bond with an 8% coupon when interest rates change from 8% to 8.96%
Answer:
It would reduce to -24.3185
Explanation:
I solved this on paper and have added the solution as an attachment
At 8% rate of interest the price of this bond is 1000
At 8.96% rate of interest the calculated price of the coupon bond is 975.681
975.681-1000 = -24.3185
When the interest rate falls from 8% to 8.96%, the price of the bond reduces by -24.3185

2. Interest expense for the July 1–December 31 period was $__5,850___.
3. Book value of Bonds on June 30 was $__89,998___.
4. Book value of Bonds on December 31 was $__90,848___.
5. Interest payment on June 30 was $__5,000___.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
January 1, 2017:
Face value of issued bonds = $100,000 ($1,000 * 100)
Coupon rate of interest = 10%
Effective rate of interest = 13%
Price of issued bonds = $89,200 ($892 * 100)
Discount on bonds = $10,800 ($100,000 - $89,200)
Interest payment = June 30 and December 31 (semiannually)
June 30:
Interest expense = $5,798 ($89,200 * 6.5%)
Cash payment = $5,000 ($100,000 * 5%)
Amortization of discount = $798
Value of bonds = $89,998 ($89,200 + $798)
December 31, 2017:
Interest expense = $5,850 ($89,998 * 6.5%)
Cash payment = $5,000 ($100,000 * 5%)
Amortization of discount = $850
Value of bonds = $90,848 ($89,998 + $850)

Ending inventory = 24,140 (279,740 - 255,600)
FIFO:
Cost of goods sold
= Cost of goods available for sale - Ending inventory
= $803,975.60 ($887,500 - $83,524.40)
Ending Inventory:
= $83,524.40 (24,140 * $3.46)

In which one of the following circumstances should a company's managers seriously consider modifying their strategy to strongly differentiate the company's branded footwear from the offerings of rival companies and achieve a competitive advantage based on a wide selection of 450-500 models/styles and "high" S/Q ratings?
a) When one or more rivals produce and market branded footwear with the same (or higher) number of models/styles that the company is offering to the buyers of athletic footwear and also have below-average retail prices in the Internet segment and below-average wholesale prices in the Wholesale segment
b) When many rival companies are spending heavily on retailer support and search engine advertising
c) When one or more rivals also produce and market branded footwear having much the same (or higher) S/Q ratings and these rivals are offering higher mail-in rebates and delivering orders for branded footwear to footwear retailers in 1-2 weeks
d) When the company is struggling to achieve the sales volumes needed to meet or beat the five investor-expected performance targets because the global marketplace for branded footwear is overcrowded with companies locked in a fierce competitive battle to sell 450- 500 models of branded footwear with high S/Q ratings at premium prices to the same comparatively narrow high-end buyer segment
e) When the company's cost per branded pair sold is above the industry average in all four geographic regions
Answer:
The circumstance in which a company's managers should seriously consider modifying their strategy to strongly differentiate the company's branded footwear from the offerings of rival companies and achieve a competitive advantage based on a wide selection of 450-500 models/styles and "high" S/Q ratings is:
c) When one or more rivals also produce and market branded footwear having much the same (or higher) S/Q ratings and these rivals are offering higher mail-in rebates and delivering orders for branded footwear to footwear retailers in 1-2 weeks.
Explanation:
S/Q ratings are Athletic Footwear Styling and Quality ratings. The ratings are championed by a consumer group, which undertakes to rate the styling and quality of the footwear of all footwear producers by assigning a styling-quality or S/Q rating of 0 to 10 stars to each company's branded footwear offerings. If the company has the same rating with a competitor and the competitor employs some strategic moves to better its competitiveness, then the company must change its differentiation strategy.
The company manager considers modifying the strategy when there has been rival with better or same footwear quality and delivery as yours. Thus option C is correct.
The S/Q rating has been the styling and quality rating that has been assigned to the footwear by the consumer groups. The strategy for the selling of an product has been improvised in the market when there has been the presence of a competitor with the same strategy as yours.
Thus company managers seriously consider modifying their strategy when one or more rivals also produce and market branded footwear having much the same (or higher) S/Q ratings and these rivals are offering higher mail-in rebates and delivering orders for branded footwear to footwear retailers in 1-2 weeks. Thus option C is correct.

Answer:
I. $35,000; II. $75,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine What amounts should be recorded as capital for Roberts and Smith at the formation of the partnership
ROBERTS net assets contributed= ($20,000 + $15,000)
Roberts net assets contributed=$35,000
SMITH fair market value of the net assets contributed = ($30,000 + $15,000 + $40,000 - $10,000)
Smith fair market value of the net assets contributed=$75,000
Therefore the amount tha should be recorded as capital for Roberts and Smith at the formation of the partnership is $35,000;$75,000
On May 1, a two-year insurance policy was purchased for $12,000 with coverage to begin immediately. What is the amount of insurance expense that would appear on the company's income statement for the first year ended December 31
Answer:
$4,000
Explanation:
The accrual concept is of the opinion that expense should be recognized when incurred and not necessarily when the expense is paid for.
The insurance payment made was for two years, hence, at the end of the first year ended 31 December, which is the 8 months after the payment has been made, hence, 8-month insurance expense would be recognized in the first year.
May 1-December 31=8 months
insurance expense=two-year payment*8 months/2 years
insurance expense=$12,000*8/24
insurance expense for the first year=$4,000
With its current levels of input use, a firm's MRTS is 1/3 (when capital is on the vertical axis and labor is on the horizontal axis). This implies:__________.
A. the firm conld produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of capital by one unit (holding labor constat).
B. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of labor by one unit (holding capital constant).
C. if the firm reduced its capital stock by one unit, it would have to hire 3 more worlkers to maintain its eurrent level of output.
D. the marginal product of labor is 3 times the marginal product of capital.
Answer: A. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of capital by one unit (holding labor constant).
Explanation:
The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution(MRTS) is calculated as follows:
= Marginal product of labor / Marginal product of capital
= 1 / 3
Marginal product of labor = 1
Marginal product of capital = 3
This means that if one unit of labor is used, it produces 1 unit of output.
If one unit of capital is used however, it produces 3 units of output.
If a firm therefore used one unit of capital and kept labor constant, it could produce 3 units out output.
Nouvelle-Aquitaine Railroad is comparing two separate capital structures. The first structure consists of 405,000 shares of stock and no debt. The second structure consists of 252397 shares of stock and $1.82 million of debt. What is the price per share of equity?
a. $75.56.
b. $88.76.
c. $82.42.
d. $72.12.
e. $93.20.
Answer:
$11.93
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the price per share of equity
Using this formula
Price per share of equity = Debt under Plan II / (Number of shares under Plan I - Number of shares under Plan II)
Let plug in the formula
Price per share of equity= $1,820,000 / (405,000 - 252,397)
Price per share = $1,820,000 / 152,603
Price per share = $11.93
Therefore the price per share of equity is $11.93

What is a bond?A bond is a sort of security used in finance where the issuer owes the holder a debt and is required, depending on the terms, to repay the principal and interest on the bond at the maturity date.
The interest is typically due at predetermined intervals, such semiannually, annually, and less frequently at various times.
A bond is therefore a type of loan or IOU. With the help of bonds, the borrower can finance long-term investments or, in the case of government bonds, current expenses.
Although both stocks and bonds are considered securities, stockholders have an equity ownership in a corporation, whereas bondholders have a creditor stake.
Bondholders have precedence over stockholders in terms of debt. In the event of bankruptcy, they will receive payment before stockholders but after secured creditors.
Another distinction is that, unlike stocks, which often have an unlimited shelf life, bonds typically have a defined term, or maturity, after which the bond is repaid.

We have created the following Planned Production Orders over the planning period: 130 Product A We have the following Raw Materials on hand and available to be dedicated to these Planned Production Orders: Enough Raw Materials to product 70 Product A There are Purchase Orders at our suppliers for the following Raw Materials: 40 Product A How many products should we order on New Purchase Orders with our suppliers
Answer:
20

New purchase order = Planned Production Order - Raw material available - purchase order for planned production
In this if the value is in negative, so it will be zero
So,
New Purchase Order (POnew) = maximum(0, PP - RM - SR)
Here,
PP = 130 Product A
RM = 70 Product A
SR = 40 Product A
Therefore POnew is
= maximum (0, 130-70-40)
= maximum (0, 20)
= 20

A stock just announced that its next annual dividend will be $1.02 and it expects to increase that dividend by 2.5 percent annually. The stock is currently selling for $28 a share. How do you compute the expected rate of return?
a) i = ($1.02/$28) + 0.025
b) i = [($1.02 x 1.025)/$28] + 0.025
c) i = ($1.02/$28) - 0.025
d) i = ($1.02 X 1.025)/$28
Answer: A. i = ($1.02/$28) + 0.025
Explanation:
The expected rate of return will be calculated as:
= (Expected dividend/Price today) + growth rate
where,
Expected dividend = $1.02
Price today = $28
Growth rate = 2.5%
Then, slotting the figures into the equation will give:
= (1.02/28) + 2.5%
= (1.02/28) + 0.025
Therefore, the correct option is A

uppose you invest, every month, in an annuity that pays 3% interest, compounded monthly. After 25 years, you have $550,000. How much money do you earn from interest
Answer: $180,046
Explanation:
First find the annuity that was invested monthly that yielded $550,000.
Interest rate = 3%/12 months = 0.25%
Period = 25 * 12 = 300 months
Future value of annuity = Annuity * ( ( 1 + rate) ^ no. of periods - 1) / rate
550,000 = Annuity * ( ( 1 + 0.25%)³⁰⁰ - 1 ) / 0.25%
550,000 = Annuity * 446
Annuity = 550,000 / 446
Annuity = $1,233.18
Without compounding, investing $1,233.18 per month would have yielded:
= 1,233.18 * 300 months
= $369,954
Money earned from interest is:
= 550,000 - 369,954
= $180,046
A farmer sells a bushel of corn to the supermarket for $12. The supermarket then sells the corn to customers for $25. What is the total contribution to GDP?
Answer:
$ 25
Explanation:
As per the description, the exact amount that is being contributed from the corn bushel to the Gross Domestic Product would be $ 25. The price at which the farmer sold it to the supermarket would not be included in the GDP because it would be considered as an intermediary good because the good purchased for the resale purpose is not included in GDP as it leads to double-counting. Thus, only the price of the final good i.e. $ 25 would be included in GDP as it will now be used for final consumption by the customers.
If a firm has sales of $100, total expenses (including interest and taxes) of $50, has a stock that is selling at $50 per share and has 10 shares of stock outstanding, then the firm has a P/E ratio of:
Answer: 10
Explanation:
P/E Ratio = Price per share/Earnings per share
Earnings per share:
= (Sales - expenses) / number of shares outstanding
= (100 - 50) / 10
= $5.00
P/E Ratio is therefore:
= 50 / 5
= 10
