To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (19.8 - 20.7)*4,900
Direct material price variance= $4,410 unfavorable
Actual price= 101,430/4,900= $20.7
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (8.6*650 - 4,600)*19.8
Direct material quantity variance= $19,602 favorable

Company Strike Expiration Call Put
Primo 61.12 55 Feb 7.25 .48
With transaction costs ignored, how much would a buyer have to pay for one call option contract. Assume each contract is for 100 shares.
Answer:
$725
Explanation:
Price of call option = Call value * Number of shares in a contract
Where Call value = $7,25, Number of shares in the contract = 100
So, Price of call option = $7.25 * 100 shares
Price of call option = $725
So, the buyer would have to pay $725 for one call option contract assuming each contract is for 100 shares.

A taxpayer's spouse dies in August of the current year. Which of the following is the taxpayer's filing status for the current year?
a. Single.
b. Qualified widow(er).
c. Married filing jointly.
d. Head of household.
Answer:
b. Married filling jointly
Explanation:
From the question we are informed about taxpayer's spouse who dies in August of the current year. In this case,
the taxpayer's filing status for the current year would be Married filling jointly. Joint return can be regarded as tax return which is been filed with the Internal Revenue Service by two married taxpayers that decide to have a filing status of "married filing jointly" or a widowed taxpayer that decide to have a filing status of " Qualifying Widow "A joint return give room for the
taxpayers to join their tax liability as well as report their income, credits and
deductions on the same joint return.
The joint return rates still validly
apply even two year after the death of a particular spouse, so far the
surviving spouse of the dead spouse does not remarry and still maintains a household as regards a dependent child.
A company is interested in developing a quarterly aggregate production plan but they are not sure if a level strategy with backorders or a chase strategy would be better. They have the following information available regarding their production operation: Hiring Cost (per unit increase) $40 Firing (per unit decrease) $80 Inventory Cost (per unit) $40 Stockout (per unit) $150 Production (Labor) cost (per unit) $30 Subcontracting cost (per unit) $60 Previous quarter's production 1300 Previous quarter's ending inventory 0 Quarter forecasts are 4000, 3000, 4000 and 5000, respectively. Suppose that you want to use a level plan with backorders (one that produces at the average demand over the four quarters). What is the ending inventory in Quarter 2
Answer:
1000 units
Explanation:
Average demand over the next 4 quarters = (4000 + 3000 + 4000 + 5000) / 4
Average demand over the next 4 quarters = 16000 / 4
Average demand over the next 4 quarters = 4000
That is, as per the Level plan, 4000 units shall be produced in each of the next 4 quarters.
Quarter 1
Beginning Inventory = 0
Production = 4000
Demand = 4000
Ending Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Production) - Demand
Ending Inventory = (0 + 4000) - 4000
Ending Inventory = 4000 - 4000
Ending Inventory = 0 units
Quarter 2
Beginning Inventory = 0
Production = 4000
Demand = 3000
Ending Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Production) - Demand
Ending Inventory = (0 + 4000) - 3000
Ending Inventory = 4000 - 3000
Ending Inventory = 1000 units

Many governments around the world attempt to improve the incomes of commodity producers by taking steps to increase the commodity price in the domestic market. Although this may reduce quantity demanded for the product, the action may be effective because:
Answer:
This action may be effective because commodity demand tends to be inelastic, so the higher prices may result in higher income for commodity producers, at least in the short term.
Explanation:
Essential commodities such as basic food items, gasoline, electricity, water, and other utilities, tend to have an inelastic demand simply because consumers cannot go without them, and they tend to prioritize these commodities over other goods and services.
This means that the higher prices caused by government intervention do not necessarily result in less demand, and the same amount of people buying the same amount of commodities at a higher price simply means a higher sales revenue for commodity producers.
Suppose Abigail wants to buy a Porsche 911 Turbo, which currently costs $125,000, in 6 years. The price of the Porsche is expected to increase at 2% per year for the next 6 years. 5. If she wants to make equal annual deposits at the end of each of the next 6 years, how much must she deposit each year if the interest rate is 6% in order to have the necessary funds to purchase the car
Answer: $20,181.21
Explanation:
First find the value of the Porsche at the end of 6 years:
= Current price * ( 1 + growth rate) ^ number of years
= 125,000 * (1 + 2%) ⁶
= $140,770
Abigail needs to have $140,770 at the end of 6 years. She would need to deposit a certain amount every year to get to that amount. This amount would be an annuity because it is constant.
Future value of annuity = Annuity * Future value interest factor of annuity, 6 years, 6%
140,770 = Annuity * 6.9753
Annuity = 140,770 / 6.9753
= $20,181.21
The Widget Co. can produce widgets according to the formula: q = 5K^3/4 L^1/4 where q is the output of widgets, and K, L are the quantities of capital and labor used.
a. Are there constant, increasing or decreasing returns to scale in widget production? Explain.
b. Are there, constant, increasing or decreasing marginal products of factors? Explain
c. In the short run, the amount of capital used by company A. is fixed. Derive the short-run cost function. (Note that the short-run cost function will show C as a function of Q, K and the factor prices w and r.)
d. Derive the long-run cost function.
Answer:
A) Constant Return to Scale
B) Decreasing Marginal Products
C) Short Run Cost Function = w*(Q/5)4 *(1/K`3) + rK`
D) (2Q/5)*(r3/4)*(w1/4)
Explanation:
A) Q(tL,tK) = 5*(tK)3/4*(tL)1/4
= t*Q(L,K)
Hence it exhibits constant return to scale
B) Here MPK = dQ/dK
= (3/4)* 5*L1/4*K-1/4
So dMPK/dK = (-3/16)*5*L1/4*K-5/4
Hence dMPK/dK < 0
thus exhibits decreasing Marginal Products
(Similarly for Labor also)
C) let K is fixed at K`
So Q = 5*K`3/4*L1/4
So L = (Q/5)4*(1/K`3)
So Short Run Cost Function = w*L + r*K`
C = w*(Q/5)4 *(1/K`3) + rK`
D) in long run, MRTS = MPL / MPK = w/r
So K/L = w/r
Thus rK = wL
So from production function
Q = 5*(wL/r)3/4*L1/4
= 5*(w/r)3/4*L
L* = (Q/5)*(r/w)3/4
similarly K* = (Q/5)*(w/r)1/4
so Long Run Cost Function = wL* + rK*
= (2Q/5)*(r3/4)*(w1/4)
A plant operates on Just-in-Time/lean principles. The total production requirements for next three days are 3000 units of X, 300 units of Y, and 1200 units of Z. Assume that the plant has enough capacity to produce all of the units within the three-day period. Which one of the following plans best represents uniform plant loading for this plant?
a. Produce 3000 units of X on day 1, 300 units of Y on day 2, and then 1200 units of Z on day 3.
b. Produce 3000 units of X first, then 300 units of Y, and then 1200 units of Z during the three-day period.
c. Produce 1500 units of X on day 1, 1500 units of X on day 2, and then 300 units of Y and 1200 units of Z on day 3.
d. none of the choices are correct
Answer:
Just-in-Time/Lean Principles
The plan that best represents uniform plant loading for this plant is:
c. Produce 1500 units of X on day 1, 1500 units of X on day 2, and then 300 units of Y and 1200 units of Z on day 3.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Total production requirements Product X Product Y Product Z
for the next three days at the factory 3,000 300 1,200
Uniform plant loading plan:
Day 1 1,500 0 0
Day 2 1,500 0 0
Day 3 0 300 1,200
Total production on the three days 3,000 300 1,200
b) The uniform plant loading plan within the just-in-time or lean production environment ensures that wastes and disruptions are minimized. It reduces inventory of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods, and loss due to production stoppages and setups. Operating on this just-in-time principle, production of product X will continue from Day 1 through Day 2, while production of products Y and Z will take place on Day 3, with the same quantity of products produced each day.

XYZ pays for 40% of its raw materials purchases in the month of purchase and 60% in the following month. Budgeted cost of materials purchases in July is $256,550 and $278,050 in Aug. Total budgeted cash disbursements for materials purchases in August is:______.
A) S265,150
B) $153,930
C) $166,830
D) S111,220
Answer:
$265,150
Explanation:
Cost of material purchases in July
= 256,550 × 60/100
= 256,550×0.6
= 153,930
Cost of purchases in August
= 278,050×40/100
= 278,050×0.4
= 111,220
Total cash disbursement
= 111,220+153,930

End of the year 115,000 46,575
a. Owner made no investments in the business, and no dividends were paid during the year.
b. Owner made no investments in the business, but dividends were $1,250 cash per month.
c. No dividends were paid during the year, but the owner did invest an additional $55,000 cash in exchange for common stock.
d. Dividends were $1,250 cash per month, and the owner invested an additional $35,000 cash in exchange for common stock.
Determine the net income earned or net loss incurred by the business during the year for each of the above separate cases:
a. b. c. d.
Beginning of the year
Answer:
The Beginning Equity is: Ending equity is:
= Assets - liabilities = 115,000 - 46,575
= 57,000 - 24,436 = $68,425
= $32,564
a. Net income if no investments:
= Ending equity - beginning equity
= 68,425 - 32,564
= $35,861
b. No investment but dividends were $1,250 per month
= Ending equity - beginning equity + dividends
= 68,425 - 32,564 + (1,250 * 12)
= $50,861
c. Investment of $55,000:
= Ending equity - beginning equity - Equity investment
= 68,425 - 32,564 - 55,000
= -$19,139
d. Dividends of $1,250 per month and Investment of $35,000:
= Ending equity - beginning equity - Equity investment + Dividend
= 68,425 - 32,564 - 35,000 + (1,250 * 12 months)
= $15,861

Which of the following statement completions is NOT CORRECT? For a profitable firm, when MACRS accelerated depreciation is compared to straight-line depreciation, MACRS accelerated allowances produce a. Lower tax payments in the earlier years of an asset's life. b. Larger total undiscounted profits from the project over the project's life. c. Higher depreciation charges in the early years of an asset's life. d. Smaller accounting profits in the early years, assuming the company uses the same depreciation method for tax and book purposes. e. Larger cash flows in the earlier years of an asset's life.
Answer:
The NOT CORRECT statement is:
b. Larger total undiscounted profits from the project over the project's life.
Explanation:
The MACRS (Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System) apportions larger depreciation expense in the earlier years of the asset's life, as it attempts to depreciate higher cost in those earlier years than the later years. This implies that the accounting profits in the early years can only be smaller and the undiscounted profits cannot be larger over the project's life.
London Company hired some students to help count inventory during their semester break. Unfortunately, the students added incorrectly and the 2019 ending inventory was overstated by $5,000. What would be the effect of this error in ending inventory
The effect of this error in ending inventory would be decrease in cost of goods sold and increase in increasing ending inventory.
Overstating inventory decreases COGS or cost of goods sold because the surplus stock in accounting records results in a higher closing stock and lower COGS. Current assets, total assets, and retained earnings are all exaggerated as a result of overstated ending inventories.
What is inventory?All the goods, merchandise, and supplies that a company keeps on hand in anticipation of selling them for a profit are referred to as inventory. A crucial corporate asset is inventory. Businesses conduct inventories to determine how much stock they have at a given time. Work-in-process (items in various stages of completion), finished goods, and supplies needed to create new sales items are all included in inventory.
What is COGS or cost of good sold?Cost of goods sold is a value or cost involved in selling goods during a particular period.
Cost of sales or the cost of goods sold (COGS) quantify the costs incurred by a company when producing a good or service. it includes the costs of labor, raw materials, and administrative expenses related to running a production plant.

Answer:
$641,547.38
Explanation:
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
We are to determine the future value of these cash flows. But to determine the future value, we need to determine the present value of the cash flows.
Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows
Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator
To find the PV using a financial calculator:
Cash flow in year 0 = $10,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $15,000
Cash flow in year 2 = 0
Cash flow in year 3 = 0
Cash flow in year 4 = $25,000
I = 9.6
PV = 41,012.11
FV : 41,012.11(1.096)^30 = $641,547.38

why are relative prices important in the economy
Answer:
Relative-price changes, like inflation, can cause price pressure in an economy. Relative-price changes are not a monetary phenomenon. They arise in market economies as individual prices adjust to the ebb and flow of the supply and demand for various goods. Relative-price movements convey important information about the scarcity of particular goods and services. A rising relative price indicates that demand is outstripping supply (or that supply is falling behind demand), while a falling relative price denotes just the opposite. A rising relative price induces consumers to conserve on the good in question and to look for substitutes. A rising relative price also, by increasing profit opportunities, entices producers to bring more of the good in question to market.
In this way, relative-price changes—no matter how uncomfortable they are for consumers or producers—transmit vital information necessary for the efficient allocation of resources throughout any market economy. Inflation, by contrast, contributes no information useful to our consumption, production, or labor choices. If anything, inflation can temporarily distort vital relative-price signals, leading people to make unsound economic choices. It can even cause people to shift their time and resources away from activities that foster production and long-term economic growth to activities intended to protect their wealth rather than expand it.

Answer:
D. Employees would be more motivated
Explanation:
The introduction of new technology into production process has so many benefits such as:
1. Productivity would increase: It is known that machines work faster and more accurately than man. This will increase the output of the company
2. Achieve a competitive advantage: If a producer introduces new technology to his work unlike his competitors that still uses old technology, he has more advantage over the market of the product produced because of improved standard of the product and increase in output.
3. Decrease in labor cost: The cost of using labor in production process is higher compared to the use of machines. If 5 labors can produce 100 units of goods in 5 hours, then, one machine should be able to produce more or equivalent in the same time
The disadvantage of introducing new technology is there's no motivation for workers. Salary is one of the major motivation of workers. Salaries of workers won't increase because of new technology, rather, it may decrease because they now perform less work in the production process.
D. Employees would be more motivated

Answer:
the amount of debt used in the capital structure of the firm.
Explanation:
In Financial accounting, a leverage can be defined as a process which typically involves the use of fixed-charged assets or items in a business with the intention of multiplying potential financial gains and returns.
This ultimately implies that, a financial leverage is a measure of the total amount of debt (borrowed money) used in the capital structure of an organization or business firm. Also, the capital structure of a business firm comprises of the combination of various equities and liabilities used to finance the smooth operations of the business.
Basically, financial leverage which is also known as trading on equity, is the utilization of debt (borrowed money) to acquire or purchase new assets with the intent and expectation that the income generated from these assets would exceed the cost incurred from borrowing. Thus, a business that engages in financial leveraging assumes that it would generate a higher income or capital gain from the amount of debt (borrowed money) used in its capital structure.
