Mr. Brew Cafeteria has computed the indifference point between debt and common equity financing options to be $4 millions of EBIT. EBIT is approximately normally distributed with an expected value of $4.5 million and a standard deviation of $600,000. What is the probability that the equity financing option will be superior to the debt option
Answer: 20.33%
Explanation:
The probability of having the equity financing option having higher figures than debt is the probability of having EBIT lower than the indifference point of $4million. We would use the z-score to find the probability of having a lower EBIT.
z-score = indifference point - expected EBIT/ standard deviation
Which would be; 4000000-4500000/600000= -0.83.
From our table, -0.83 is 20.33%.
Frederick Group uses ABC to account for its chrome wheel manufacturing process. Company managers have identified four manufacturing activities that incur manufacturing overhead costs: materials handling, machine setup, insertion of parts, and finishing. The budgeted activity costs for the upcoming year and their allocation bases are as follows:
Activity Total budgeted manufacturing overhead cost Allocation base
Material handeling 8700 Number of parts
Machine setup 4650 Number of setups
Insertion of parts 49300 Number of parts
Finishing 75600 Finishing direct labour hours
Total 138250
Frederick Group expects to produce 1,000 chrome wheels during the year.
The wheels are expected to use 2,900 parts, require 15 setups, and consume 1,800 hours of finishing time. Job 420
Job 420 used 150 parts, required 4 setups, and consumed 120 finishing hours.
Job 510 used 500 parts, required 5 setups, and consumed 320 finishing hours.
Requirements
1.Compute the cost allocation rate for each activity.
2. Compute the manufacturing overhead cost that should be assigned to Job 420.
3. Compute overhead cost that should be assigned to Job510.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activities allocation rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Material handeling= 8,700/2,900= $3 per part
Machine setup= 4,650/15= $310 per setup
Insertion of parts= 49,300/2,900= $17 per part
Finishing= 75,600/1,800= $42 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to Job 420:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Material handeling= 3*150= $450
Machine setup= 310*4= $1,240
Insertion of parts= 17*150= $2,550
Finishing= 42*120= $5,040
Total allocated costs= $9,280
Finally, allocated costs to Job 510:
Material handeling= 3*500= $1,500
Machine setup= 310*5= $1,550
Insertion of parts= 17*500= $8,500
Finishing= 42*320= $13,440
Total allocated costs= $24,990

Jackson, Inc., manufactures two products that it sells to the same market. Excerpted below are its budgeted and actual operating results for the year just completed: Unit sales Budged Actual Product X 22,500 42,000 Product Y 90,000 80,000 Unit contribution margin Product X $4.80 $3.90 Product Y $13.00 $14.00 Unit selling price Product X $13.00 $14.00 Product Y $30.00 $29.00 Industry volume was estimated to be 1,875,000 units at the time the budget was prepared. Actual industry volume for the period was 2,440,000 units. Jackson measures variances using contribution margin. Total sales quantity variance is: $97,280 favorable. $95,190 favorable. $107,920 favorable. $84,500 favorable. $36,400 favorable.
Answer:
$46,500 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the total sales quantity variance is as follows:
Total sales quantity variance
Sales quantity variance is
= (Actual quantity sold - Budgeted quantity) × Budgeted price
For product X, it would be
= (42,000 - 22,500) × $13
= $253,500 favorable
And, For product Y, it is
= (80,000 - 90,000) × $30
= $300,000 unfavorable
So, the total would be
= $300,000 - $253,500
= $46,500 unfavorable
This is the answer but the same would not be provided in the given options

Problem 10-3A The following section is taken from Hardesty's balance sheet at December 31, 2016. Current liabilities Interest payable $ 46,500 Long-term liabilities Bonds payable (9%, due January 1, 2020) 565,000 Interest is payable annually on January 1. The bonds are callable on any annual interest date. (a) Journalize the payment of the bond interest on January 1, 2017. (b) Assume that on January 1, 2017, after paying interest, Hardesty calls bonds having a face value of $160,000. The call price is 107. Record the redemption of the bonds. (c) Prepare the adjusting entry on December 31, 2017, to accrue the interest on the remaining bonds.
Answer:
Hardesty
a) January 1, 2017:
Debit Interest payable $46,500
Credit Cash $46,500
To record the payment of interest on bonds.
b) January 1, 2017:
Debit Long-term liabilities Bonds payable $160,000
Debit Bonds Redemption Expense $11,200
Credit Cash $171,200
To record the redemption of bonds at 107.
c) December 31, 2017:
Debit Interest Expense $36,450
Credit Interest Payable $36,450
To record interest expense for balance of bonds.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Current liabilities
Interest payable $ 46,500
Long-term liabilities Bonds payable (9%, due January 1, 2020) $565,000
Interest payment date = January 1
Face value of bonds called = $160,000
Call price = 107
Bond redemption expense = ($160,000 * 107/100) - $160,000 = $11,200
Interest expense for 2017:
= ($565,000 - $160,000) * 9% = $36,450
Sheridan Company has $21000 of ending finished goods inventory as of December 31, 2019. If beginning finished goods inventory was $15000 and cost of goods sold was $50000, how much would Sheridan report for cost of goods manufactured
Answer:
$56,000
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of goods manufactured is shown below:
As we know that
Cost of goods sold = Opening finished goods inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished goods inventory
$50,000 = $15,000 + cost of goods manufactured - $21,000
So, the cost of goods manufactured is
= $50000 + $6,000
= $56,000

On March 25, 2021, Phillips Corporation purchased bonds of Atlas Corporation for $132 million and classified the securities as trading securities. On December 31, 2021, these bonds were valued at $150 million. Three months later, on April 3, 2022, Phillips Corporation sold these bonds for $140 million. As part of the multi-step approach to record the 2019 transaction, Phillips Corporation should first update the fair value adjustment by recording:A.
