Answer:
$2,650
Explanation:
beginning inventory 300 units at $5.10 = $1,530
1st purchase 500 units at $5.20 = $2,600
2nd purchase 700 units at $5.30 = $3,710
3rd purchase 600 units at $5.50 = $3,300
total number of units 2,100
total cost = $11,140
average cost per unit = $5.30
ending inventory = 500
value of ending inventory using average cost = 500 x $5.30 = $2,650

A business tenant pays 2% of his total gross sales volume as rent, with a minimum base rental of $1,000 per month. In the past year, his sales totaled $435,000. How much rent did he pay?
Answer:
$12,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount of rent he paid.
First step is to calculate his sales amount for the year using this formula
Sales = Percentage of total gross sales volume× Sales amount
Let plug in the formula
Sales =2%×$435,000
Sales=$8,700
Second step is to calculate his minimum base rental using this formula
Minimum base rental = Numbers of month × Monthly payment
Let plug in the formula
Minimum base rental= 12 months ×$1,000 per month
Minimum base rental=$12,000
Based on the calculation his minimum annual base rent will be $12,000 which is higher than tha amount of $8,700 which means that the tenants paid the amount of $12,000.
Therefore the amount he paid for his rent will be $12,000.

Weight Return Bonds (Lehman Brothers Index) 50 % 5 % Stocks (S&P 500 Index) 50 % 15 % The total excess return on the Aggie managed portfolio was
Please see full question attached
Answer:
Option C: 4%
Explanation:
Asset allocation simply means the investors allocation of resources in acquiring a mix of assets for his portfolio that produce the best risk-return balance based on investors objectives or profile
Excess return is the excess return from an investment over another investment used in comparison usually a risk free investment such as a treasury bill
Here we will try to determine the asset allocation's contribution to the excess return.
Contribution of asset allocation across markets to total excess return is calculated by the formula =
Weight of bonds - Weight of Lehman's brothers index(bemchmark) for bonds x Lehman brothers index(benchmark) return of bonds + Weight of stocks - Weight of S&p 500 index(benchmark) for stocks x s &p 500 (benchmark)return for stocks
= (0.10 - 0.50) x 0.05 + (0.90 - 0.50) x 0.15
= 4%
Taylor's stock has plummeted in value and is currently priced at $5 a share. The firm prefers the price exceed $10 a share and thus has decided to do a reverse stock split. However, when it does this, the firm wants the stock price increased to at least twice its preferred minimum as it is concerned the price will fall further. Which one of the following stock split ratios is most appropriate for this situation?
A. 1-for-3
B. 1-for-4
C. 2-for-7
D. 4-for-1
E. 7-for-2
Answer:
D
Explanation:
a reverse stock split is the opposite of a stock split. A reverse stock split reduces the number of shares outstanding.
It is usually done when it is perceived that the stock of a company is undervalued.
In a 4-for-1 split, for every four shares owned by a shareholder, it becomes one. So if a shareholder has 1000 shares at a price of $5, it becomes 1000/ 4 = 250 the shareholder owns. Prices becomes $5 x 4 = $20. this is at least twice its preferred minimum of $10.
A. 1-for-3
B. 1-for-4
C. 2-for-7
are examples of stock splits and not a reverse stock split.
In a 7-for-2, f a shareholder has 1000 shares at a price of $5, price becomes $5 x (7/2) = $17.50
This is not at least twice its preferred minimum of $10.

A manufacturer of tiling grout has supplied the following data: Kilograms produced and sold 380,000 Sales revenue $ 2,736,000 Variable manufacturing expense $ 1,349,000 Fixed manufacturing expense $ 336,000 Variable selling and administrative expense $ 399,000 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 372,000 Net operating income $ 280,000 The company's break-even in unit sales is closest to:
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 272,308 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Variable manufacturing expense $ 1,349,000
Variable selling and administrative expense $ 399,000
Total variable cost= 1,748,000
Fixed manufacturing expense $ 336,000
Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 372,000
Total fixed costs= 708,000
First, we need to calculate the unitary selling price and unitary variable cost:
Unitary selling price= 2,736,000/380,000= $7.2
Unitary variable cost= 1,748,000/380,000= $4.6
Now, to calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 708,000 / (7.2 - 4.6)
Break-even point in units= 272,308 units

Houston, Inc., planned and actually manufactured 200,000 units of its single product in 2017, its first year of operation. The variable manufacturing cost was $24 per unit produced. The variable operating (nonmanufacturing) cost was $9 per unit sold. Planned and actual fixed manufacturing costs were $600,000.Planned and actual fixed operating (nonmanufacturing) costs totaled $370,000. Houston sold 100,000 units of a product at $45 per unit.
Houston?s 2017 operating income using absorption costing is
(a) $530,000
(b) $230,000
(c) $600,000
(d) $900,000
(e) none of these
Answer:
(a) $530,000
Explanation:
Sales = 100,000 units for $45 per unit = $4,500,000
Less: Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of manufacturing = 100,000 units for $27 per unit = $2,700,000
Variable cost at $24 per unit
Fixed [tex]\frac{600,000}{200,000} = 3[/tex] per unit
Gross income = $1,800,000
Less: Non Manufacturing Expense
Variable = 100,000 units at $9 per unit = $900,000
Fixed = $370,000
Total Non manufacturing expense = $1,270,000
Operating Income as per absorption costing = $1,800,000 - $1,270,000 = $530,000
Under absorption costing method everything expect the non manufacturing fixed expense are consumed on per unit basis, but fixed non manufacturing fixed expense are completely absorbed as are not incurred for manufacturing thus, not charged to finished goods but only to goods sold.

The total cost was $750,000. The CCA rate is 25%. What is the CCA for Year 2?
Answer:
CCA for year 2 is $164,062.50
Explanation:
Total cost of machine = $750,000
CCA rate = 25%
CCA in year 1 = (Total cost / 2) * CCA rate
CCA in year 1 = ($750,000/2)*0.25
CCA in year 1 = $93,750
For year 2, CCA = (Total cost - CCA in year 1) *CCA rate
For year 2, CCA = ($750,000 - $93,750)*0.25
For year 2, CCA = $164,062.50
Hence, CCA for year 2 is $164,062.50

Gilberto Company currently manufactures 60,000 units per year of one of its crucial parts. Variable costs are $2.30 per unit, fixed costs related to making this part are $60,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $45,000 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 $3.50 per unit guaranteed for a three-year period. Calculate the total incremental cost of making 60,000 and buying 60,000 units. Should the company continue to manufacture the part, or should it buy the part from the outside supplier?
Answer:
the costs of producing the parts is $12,000 less than buying them from an outside vendor
Explanation:
production costs (60,000 units)
variable $2.30 per unit
fixed (avoidable) $1 per unit
fixed (unavoidable) $0.75 per unit
total $4.05 per unit
price from outside supplier $3.50 per unit
total incremental cost of buying from outside supplier = (60,000 x $3.50) + (60,000 x $0.75) = $210,000 + $45,000 = $255,000
production costs to manufacture = 60,000 x $4.05 = $243,000
the costs of producing the parts is $12,000 less than buying them from an outside vendor

I am confused about how Discount is calculated? What table if any do I have to refer to.....
Face value is $500,000
Discount (52,970)
Selling Price of bond $447,030
Answer:
the bond discount = face value - market value
market value = PV of face value + PV of coupon payments
PV of face value = $500,000 / (1 + 7%)²⁰ = $129,209.50
PV of coupon payments = $30,000 x 10.594 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 20 periods) = $317,820
market value = $447,029.50
January 1, 2017, bonds are issued at a discount
Dr Cash 447,029.50
Dr Discount on bonds payable 52,970.50
Cr Bonds payable 500,000
the discount amortization for first coupon payment = ($447,029.50 x 7%) - $30,000 = $31,292 - $30,000 = $1,292
July 1, 2017, first coupon payment
Dr Interest expense 31,292

The following information is available for a company's cost of sales over the last four months.Month Units sold Cost of salesJanuary 400 $ 31,000February 800 $ 37,000March 1,600 $ 49,000April 2,400 $ 61,000Using the high-low method, the estimated total fixed cost is:A. $25,000.B. $30,000.C. $13,692.D. $100,000.E. $50,000.
Answer:
Fixed costs= $25,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
January 400 $ 31,000
February 800 $ 37,000
March 1,600 $ 49,000
April 2,400 $ 61,000
To calculate the fixed costs, first, we need to determine the unitary variable cost:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (61,000 - 31,000) / (2,400 - 4,000)
Variable cost per unit= $15
Now, we can calculate the fixed costs:
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 61,000 - (15*2,400)
Fixed costs= $25,000
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 31,000 - (15*400)
Fixed costs= $25,000
A firm operates in manufacture of lysine for industrial use. Lysine sells in a perfectly competitive industry for $35.00 per ton produced. The costs of raw materials such as sugars, water, gas and electricity and labor average to $29.00 per ton. These costs can be avoided by shutting down. The cost of the lease on machinery, the building, and the shipping vehicles average an additional $8.50 per ton; costs that would take a longer time to terminate based on the long-term contracts involved. Based on this information, what is the best course of action for the firm?
Answer:
Continue the production of Lysine until the cost of leasing machinery, the building, and the shipping vehicles becomes avoidable.
Explanation:
We will use relevant costing here to assess whether we must close the production of Lysine or not.
According to relevant costing principles if the cost is relevant then it must satisfy following conditions:
Must be cash flow in nature.Must be Future related (no past commitments).Differential or must be incrementalClearly cash would be used here and the cost or income arising must not be linked to the past bindings, it must be future related. The third condition is very interesting here, the concept of differential.
A differential cost will arise if we take the decision (closing down production of Lysine), and it will not arise if we don't take the decision (closing down production of Lysine).
All the variable costs will be relevant which means that variable cost of $29 per ton is relevant. Variable costs are also known as avoidable cost which means unavoidable costs will not be relevant here.
Here, unavoidable costs are $8.5 per ton and are unavoidable.
Hence
Contribution per unit generated = $35 per ton - $29 per ton = $6 per ton
This means if we close the production of Lysine then we will suffer a loss of $6 per ton
Hence the company must continue producing Lysine until it is able to avoid cost of $8.5 per ton. In which case, the cost will become relevant and the decision will be altered to stop production.
Mathematically, (If $8.5 per ton becomes avoidable in future)
Contribution = $35 per ton - $29 per ton - $8.5 per ton = Loss of $2.5 per ton
Best Course of Action:Continue the production of Lysine until the cost of leasing machinery, the building, and the shipping vehicles becomes avoidable.

The company has never paid a dividend to its common stockholders. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
a. The company's net income in 2014 was higher than in 2015.
b. The company issued common stock in 2015.
c. The market price of the company's stock doubled in 2015.
d. The company had positive net income in both 2014 and 2015, but the company's net income in 2014 was lower than it was in 2015.
e. The company has more equity than debt on its balance sheet.
Answer: b. The company issued common stock in 2015.

Bruner Stores wants to have 900 shovels in ending inventory on December 31. Budgeted sales for December are 2,500 shovels. The November 30 inventory was shovels. How many shovels should Benson Stores purchase for December?
Answer: 2,900 shovels
Explanation:
Ending Inventory = Beginning Inventory + Total Inventory Purchased - Sales
900 = 500 + Total produced - 2,500
Total Purchased = 900 + 2,500 - 500
Total purchased = 2,900 shovels
NB; There was no beginning balance in your question so I gave a random figure of 500 units. Use the equation if the figure is different.
You purchased a zero-coupon bond one year ago for $283.83. The market interest rate is now 9 percent. Assume semiannual compounding. If the bond had 15 years to maturity when you originally purchased it, what was your total return for the past year?
Answer:
2.73%
Explanation:
Price of Zero Coupon Bond now = 1,000 / (1 + 0.09 / 2)^28
Price of Zero Coupon Bond now = 1,000 / (1 + 0.09 / 2)^28
Price of Zero Coupon Bond now = 1,000 / 3.4297
Price of Zero Coupon Bond now = $291.57
Rate of Return = (291.57 - 283.83) / 283.83
Rate of Return = 2.73%

Purchases in May were $65,000, while expected purchases for June and July are $75,000 and $93,000, respectively. All purchases are paid % in the month of purchase and % in the following month. At what amount are June payments for purchases budgeted?
Answer:
$61,000
Explanation:
The computation of June payments for purchases budgeted is shown below:-
June payments for purchases budgeted = Purchase of June × Purchase percentage + May purchase × Percentage of the following month
= $75,000 × 25% + $65,000 × 65%
= $18,750 + $42,250
= $61,000
Therefore for computing the June payments for purchases budgeted we simply applied the above formula.
