Two years ago, Panera Bread opened a franchise on Plymouth Road. They bake their bread freshevery morning very early before the store opens, and they dont make more throughout the day. Aloaf costs$2 to bake and can be sold to a customer for$5. Any loaves that are leftover at the endof the day can be donated to a local food bank and will have a$0.50 tax benefit. The manager,Ed, has been estimating how much to bake each day based on his expert judgment. However, thestore has also been recording how many loaves of bread are ordered over the past se
Answer: 373 loaves
Explanation:
Here's the remainder of the question:
However, the store has also been recording how many loaves of bread are ordered over the past several months,and he would like to start using this data to determine how much to bake.When Ed looks at the data, he notices that the number of loaves ordered on Tuesdays is uniformly distributed between 300 and 410 loaves. How many loaves should this Panera location bake on Tuesday mornings?
The number of loaves that Panera location should bake on Tuesday mornings will be calculated thus:
First, we should note that the shortage cost, Cu will be:
= Selling price - Cost .
= $5 - $2
= $3
Also, the overage cost, Co will be:
= cost - salvage benefit
= $2 - $0.5
= $ 1.5
We the n calculate the critical ratio which will be:
= Cu/(Cu+Co)
= 3/(3+1.5)
= 3/4.5
= 0.667
The number of loaves that Panera location should bake on Tuesday mornings will be:
= 300 + [0.667 × (410-300)]
= 300 + (0.667 × 110)
= 300 + 73.37
= 373.37
= 373 loaves
A firm' s sales procedure involves preparing sales invoices based on shipping documents; posting the sales amounts to accounts receivable records; and posting quantities billed to the inventory records. Due to control weaknesses in the procedure, certain goods that are shipped may not be reflected in the sales invoices. The exposure from this risk can result in:
Answer: understatement of revenues and receivables and over statement of inventory
Explanation:
Control weakness simply refers to the failure by a company to implement the internal controls. Based on the information given, the exposure from this risk can result in understatement of revenues and receivables and over statement of inventory.
There'll be understatement of revenue and receivables since sales is not recorded while the inventory will be overstated.
The Federal Reserve buys $38.00 million in Treasury securities. If the required reserve ratio is 30.00%, and all currency is deposited into the banking system, and banks hold excess reserves of 10%, then the maximum amount the money supply can increase is $_______ million.
Answer:
$95 million
Explanation:
When the Feds buys securities, it is an expansionary monetary policy
Expansionary monetary policy : these are polices taken in order to increase money supply. When money supply increases, aggregate demand increases. reducing interest rate and open market purchase are ways of carrying out expansionary monetary policy
Required reserves is the percentage of deposits required of banks to keep as reserves by the central bank
Required reserves = reserve requirement x deposits
Excess reserves is the extra that it kept by banks
Money supply = deposit / total reserves
total reserves = 30 + 10 = 40%
total increase in money supply = $38 / 0.4 = $95 million
On January 1, 2019, Tonika Company issued a four-year, $10,700, 7% bond. The interest is payable annually each December 31. The issue price was $10,018 based on an 8% effective interest rate. Tonika uses the effective-interest amortization method. Rounding calculations to the nearest whole dollar, which of the following journal entries correctly records the 2019 interest expense?
A. Interest expense 1,052
Bond discount 205
Cash 847
B. Interest expense 847
Cash 847
C. Interest expense 805
Bond discount 42
Cash 847
Answer:
C. Interest Expense 805
Bond discount 42
Cash 847
Explanation:
The interest expense is calculated based on effective interest rate. The issue price is 10,018 which is the actual price and with effective interest rate interest amount is determined. The interest expense has cash value and bond discount.
10,018 * 8% = 804.45 approximately 805.
Olaf lives in the state of Minnesota. In 2020, a tornado hit the area and damaged his home and automobile. Applicable information is as follows:

Auto 60,000 40,000 10,000 20,000
Because of the extensive damage caused by the tornado, the President designated the area a Federal disaster area. Olaf and his wife, Anna, always file a joint return. Their 2019 tax return shows AGI of $180,000 and taxable income of $145,000. In 2020, their return shows AGI of $300,000 and taxable income (exclusive of the casualty loss deduction) of $225,000. Assume the taxpayers are in the 22% tax bracket in 2019 and the 24% tax bracket in 2020.
Determine the amount of Olaf and Anna's loss and the year in which they should take the loss.

2. Calculation to determine what Olaf and Anna should include the loss on the return, because the tax savings is greater.
Based on the information given in a situation where Olaf and his wife apply the loss to the prior year which means that rate of 22% will be use for the benefit of the loss
Taxable income = ($145,000 − $61,900)
Taxable income = $ 83,100
Calculation for when Loss is taken on the PRIOR year's return:
Tax savings=(22% × $61,900)
Tax savings= $ 13,618
In a situation where the loss is been applied to the current year which means that the rate of 24 % will be use for the benefit of the loss
Taxable income = ($225,000-$49,900)
Taxable income= $ 175,100
Calculation for the loss is taken on the CURRENT year's return:
Tax savings= (24% × $49,900)
Tax savings =$ 11,976
Therefore based on the above calculation Olaf and his wife Anna should include the loss on the PRIOR YEAR'S return reason been that the tax savings is $1,642 ($13618 − $11976) greater.

Suppose that 3 months ago you entered into an forward rate agreement, and that under the terms of the contract you will receive 7.2% per annum, with semiannual compounding, and pay LIBOR on a principal of $200 million for the period between time 1 year and time 1.5 years (from now). Suppose that the forward LIBOR rate for this period, with semiannual compounding, is 6.9% per annum. If the 1.5-year continuously compounded risk-free rate is 5.4%, what is the value of the forward rate agreement
Lindsey Company uses activity-based costing. The company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A is 5,000 units and of Product B is 2,000 units. There are three activity cost pools, with estimated total cost and expected activity as follows: Estimated Expected Activity Activity Cost Pools Overhead Cost Product A Product B Total Activity 1 $ 24,000 200 800 1,000 Activity 2 $ 36,900 750 150 900 Activity 3 $ 63,000 1,000 800 1,800 The overhead cost per unit of Product A under activity-based costing is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activities rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 24,000 / 1,000= $24 per activity unit
Activity 2= 36,900 / 900= $41 per activity unit
Activity 3= 63,000 / 1,800= $35 per activity unit
Now, we can allocate costs to product A:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 24*200= $4,800
Activity 2= 41*750= $30,750
Activity 3= 35*1,000= $35,000
Total allocated costs= $70,550
Finally, the unitary cost:
Unitary cost= 70,550 / 5,000= $14.11

Craigmont uses the allowance method to account for uncollectible accounts. Its year-end unadjusted trial balance shows Accounts Receivable of $134,500, allowance for doubtful accounts of $965 (credit) and sales of $1,075,000. If uncollectible accounts are estimated to be 4% of accounts receivable, what is the amount of the bad debts expense adjusting entry
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Please see the computation below;
Amount uncollectible
= $134,500 × 4%
= $5,380
Then,
Bad debt
= $5,380 - $965
= $4,415
Therefore, the adjusting entry would be;
Bad debt account Dr $4,415
............................To Allowance for doubtful debt Cr $4,415
(Being bad debt expense that is recorded)
We debited bad debt expense here because it increases the expenses, while allowance for doubtful dent is credited because it decreases the assets.

In addition, the company had an interest expense of $73,800 and a tax rate of 22 percent. (Ignore any tax loss carryforward provisions and assume interest expense is fully tax deductible.)
a. What is the company’s net income/loss for 2018? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a positive value.)
b. What is the company's operating cash flow? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
a. The net income or loss for the year 2018 is
Sales $763,000
Less: COGS $462,000
Less: A&S expenses $103,000
Less: Depreciation $148,500
EBIT $49,500
Less: Interest $73,800
Taxable income -$24,300
Less: Taxes(22%) $0
Net income(loss) -$24,300
Net loss = $24,300

A company paid its annual dividends of $5.39 per share last week. The company expects to grow its dividends at the rate of 5.0 percent per year for four years, after which the dividends are expected to remain constant at the level of $7.13 per share per year in perpetuity. If investors require a rate of return of 11.5 percent on this company's stock, what should be the price of one share of this stock today
Answer: $58.7
Explanation:
The price of one share of this stock today will be calculated thus:
Dividend of year 1= $5.39(1 + 0.05) = $5.66
Dividend of Year 2 = $5.39(1 + 0.05)² = $5.94
Dividend of Year 3 = $5.39(1 + 0.05)³ = $6.24
Dividend of Year 4 = $5.39(1 + 0.05)^4 = $6.55
We then calculate the value at year 4 which will be:
= $7.13 / 0.115 = $62
The price will then be:
Price = $5.66 / (1 + 0.115) + $5.94 / (1 + 0.115)² + $6.24/ (1 + 0.115)³ + $6.56 / (1 + 0.115)^4 + $62 / (1 + 0.115)^4
= $58.7

e. 37.5 units per labor hour
Answer:
a. 45 units per labor hour.
Explanation:
No. of units produced is 9000 units
No. of labor hours per week is 40 hours
There are total 5 labors so the hours per labor is 40/ 5 = 8 hours per labor.
No. of units produced by each labor is 9000 / 5 = 1800 units per labor
The unit per labor hour is 1800 / 8 hours = 225 units
These units are further distributed among 5 workers so each labor has produced 225 / 5 = 45 units per week.
The last week’s labor productivity at the Murray Division is option a. 45 units per labor hour.
Calculation of last week’s labor productivity:Since the No. of units produced is 9000 units and the No. of labor hours per week is 40 hours and there are total 5 laborers
so the hours per labor should be = 40/ 5 = 8 hours per labor.
Now
No. of units produced by each labor should be
= 9000 / 5
= 1800 units per labor
Now
The unit per labor hour is
= 1800 / 8 hours
= 225 units
Since there are 5 workers so per worker it should be
= 225 / 5
= 45 units per week.

9. Calculating the price elasticity of supply Rajiv is a college student who lives in Chicago and does some consulting work for extra cash. At a wage of $40 per hour, he is willing to work 7 hours per week. At $50 per hour, he is willing to work 10 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Rajiv's labor supply between the wages of $40 and $50 per hour is approximately , which means that Rajiv's supply of labor over this wage range is .
Answer:
PES = 1.59 elastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity of supply = percentage change in quantity supplied / percentage change in price
% change in quantity = (Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2] = (10 - 7) / [(10 + 7) / 2] = 3 / 8.5 = 35.29%
% change in price = (50 - 40) / [(50 + 40) / 2] = 10 / 45 = 22.22%
PES = 35.29% / 22.22% = 1.59 elastic

Carey Company owns a plot of land on which burried toxic wastes have been discovered. Since it will require several years and a considerable sum of money before the property is fully detoxified and capable of generating revenues, Carey wishes to sell the land now. It has located two potenital buyers. Buyer A, who is willing to pay $480,000 for the land now, or Buyer B, who is willing to make 20 annual payments of $75,000 each, with the first payment to be made 5 years from today. Assuming that the appropraite rate of interest is 9%, wo whom should Carey sell the land. Show calculations.
Answer:
Carey should accept buyer A's offer
Explanation:
we need to compare the present values of both proposals:
Present value of proposal A = $480,000
Present value of proposal B:
present value of annuity in 5 years = $75,000 x 9.1285 (PVIFA, 9%, 20 periods) = $684,637.50
present value (today) = $684,637.50 / (1 + 9%)⁵ = $444,967.40
