Answer: $38,950
Explanation:
The bank balance and the book cash balance might often be different for different reasons, one of which is due to the transactions recorded in the books not having been processed by the banks amongst others.
The books and bank balance will therefore need to be reconciled.
Balance per bank statement = Cash balance in books + Outstanding checks - Deposits in transit - Bank charges
= 35,000 + 11,000 - 7,000 - 50
= $38,950

Explanation:
Velocity, a consulting firm, enters into a contract to help Burger Boy, a fast-food restaurant, design a marketing strategy to compete with Burger King. The contract spans eight months. Burger Boy promises to pay $93,000 at the end of each month. At the end of the contract, Velocity either will give Burger Boy a refund of $31,000 or will be entitled to an additional $31,000 bonus, depending on whether sales at Burger Boy at year-end have increased to a target level. At the inception of the contract, Velocity estimates an 80% chance that it will earn the $31,000 bonus and calculates the contract price based on the expected value of future payments to be received. At the start of the fifth month, circumstances change, and Velocity revises to 60% its estimate of the probability that it will earn the bonus. At the end of the contract, Velocity receives the additional consideration of $31,000. At the end of the contract, Velocity receives the additional consideration of $29,000.
Required:
a. Prepare the journal entry to record revenue each month for the first four months of the contract.
b. Prepare the journal entry that the Velocity Company would record after four months to recognize the change in estimate associated with the reduced likelihood that the bonus will be received.
c. Prepare the journal entry to record the revenue each month for the second four months of the contract.
d. Prepare the journal entry after eight months to record receipt of the cash bonus.
Answer:
a. Accounts Receivable (Dr.) $93,000
Bonus Receivable (Dr.) $2,325
Service Revenue (Cr.) $95,325
b. Service Revenue (Dr.) $9,300
Bonus receivable (Cr.) $9,300
c. Accounts Receivable (Dr.) $93,775
Bonus Receivable (Dr.) $775
Service Revenue (Cr.) $93,000
d. Cash (Dr.) $29,000
Bonus Receivable (Cr.) $29,000
Explanation:
The contract between Burger Boy and Velocity is for eight months.
Expected value of the contract on 1st month is :
80% * [ $93,000 * 8 months + $31,000 ] + 20% [ $93,000 * 8 months - $31,000] = $762,600
The expected value per month is $762,600 / 8 months = $95,325 per month
Expected value of the contract 5th month with revised probability is :
60% * [ $93,000 * 8 months + $31,000 ] + 40% [ $93,000 * 8 months - $31,000] = $750,200
The expected value per month is $750,200 / 8 months = $93,775 per month.

Your company is estimated to make dividends payments of $2.1 next year, $3.6 the year after, and $4.2 in the year after that. The dividends will then grow at a constant rate of 6% per year. If the discount rate is 9% then what is the current stock price
Answer:
P0 = $122.79185 rounded off to $122.79
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) can be used to calculate the price of the stock today. DDM calculates the price of a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under DDM is,
P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
D1, D2, ... , Dn is the dividend expected in Year 1,2 and so ong is the constant growth rate in dividendsr is the discount rateP0 = 2.1 / (1+0.09) + 3.6 / (1+0.09)^2 + 4.2 / (1+0.09)^3 +
[(4.2 * (1+0.06) / (0.09 - 0.06)) / (1+0.09)^3]
P0 = $122.79185 rounded off to $122.79
Galactic Inc. manufactures flying drone toys. Sales units for January, February, March, April and May were 320, 300, 372, 332, and 400 respectively. Budgeted production in units for January, February, and March were 315, 318, and 362 respectively. Each unit requires 3 direct labor hours and Galactic’s hourly labor rate is $16 per hour. The company’s variable overhead is $5.00 per unit produced and its fixed overhead is $5,600 per month..
Required:
a. Determine Galactic's direct labor budget for the first quarter.
b. Determine Galactic's manufacturing overhead budget for the first quarter
Answer:
Direct labor costs= $47,760
total manufacturing overhead= $10,575
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 315 + 318 + 362= 995 units
Each unit requires 3 direct labor hours.
Hourly rate= $16
Variable overhead per unit= $5
Fixed overhead= $5,600
First, we need to calculate the direct labor hours:
Direct labor hours= 995*3= 2,985
Now, the direct labor costs:
Direct labor costs= $47,760
Finally, the total manufacturing overhead:
total manufacturing overhead= 5,600 + 5*995
total manufacturing overhead= $10,575

Snug Harbor Realty Co., had a checking account in 1st National Bank. When construction work was obtained by Snug Harbor, its superintendent, Magee, would examine the bills submitted for labor and materials. He would instruct the bookkeeper which bills were approved, and the bookkeeper then prepared the checks in accordance with his instructions. After the checks were signed by the proper official of Snug Harbor, Magee picked them up for delivery. Instead of delivering certain checks, he forged the signatures of the respective payees as endorsers and cashed the checks. The drawee bank then debited the Snug Harbor account with the amount of the checks. Snug Harbor claimed this was improper and sued the bank for the amount of the checks. The bank claimed it was protected by the impostor rule.
Required:
Will the bank be successful?
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
Solution:
The higher court's ruling was reversed, and the case was remanded for further proceedings.
The higher court argued that the trial court erred by failing to understand that the checks were for actual payees for the plaintiff, not names given by the employee, and that the trial court erred in its decision.
The bank will be covered under UCC 3-405 if an employee forged a payee and forged the endorsement on a company check and embezzled the check. The checks were meant for the company's actual payees, so this was not the case.
Multipoint pricing occurs when a company buys products at a cheaper rate in one country to sell at a higher price in another country. allows markets to determine the pricing of a product. aggressively prices in one market to elicit a competitive response from a rival in another market. prices its products at a loss in order to drive out competitors from the market. prices two similar products at low and high prices in order to boost sales of the lower priced products.
Answer:

This ultimately implies that, a company's pricing strategy in one market is likely to impact the pricing strategy of its rival in another market.
As a result of a thorough physical inventory, Sheridan Company determined that it had inventory worth $320800 at December 31, 2020. This count did not take into consideration the following facts: Herschel Consignment currently has goods worth $46300 on its sales floor that belong to Sheridan but are being sold on consignment by Herschel. The selling price of these goods is $74900. Sheridan purchased $22000 of goods that were shipped on December 27, FOB destination, that will be received by Sheridan on January 3. Determine the correct amount of inventory that Sheridan should report.
Answer:
Sheridan Company
The correct amount of inventory that Sheridan should report is:
= $367,100
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
December 31 Inventory based on physical inventory = $320,800
Goods held on consignment by Herschel = 46,300
December 27, FOB destination goods ($22,000) 0
Correct amount of inventory that Sheridan should report $367,100
b) Goods on consignment are generally the property of the consignor (supplier) and not the consignee's (retailer's). Therefore, they must appear in the balance sheet of the consignor. Goods on FOB destination remain the property of the supplier until they reach the buyer's destination. This is why it is not included above.

Uber and Lyft Drivers Go on Strike This activity is important because fairness gives employees observable evidence of trustworthiness of a manager, company or other source. Managers should know the types of justice and how they can exhibit those to gain trust. Trust is a strong predictor of organizational commitment and a moderate predictor of job performance. The goal of this exercise is to demonstrate your understanding of justice, by reading a case and answering questions that follow. Read the following case about Uber and Lyft and answer the questions that follow. Uber and Lyft drivers went on strike in several U.S. major cities the week of May 6, 2019, holding rallies and, in some cases, drivers not working for 12 to 24 hours. The drivers were protesting a pay decrease per mile and seeking better benefits. Lyft and Uber drivers are independent contractors, so they do not qualify for the same benefits and protections that govern typical employees. Drivers aren't guaranteed minimum wage or overtime, for example. Currently, Uber offers some benefits for high volume drivers, such as discounts on car repair and maintenance. Lyft and Uber have pushed back, with Lyft saying that most drivers work 10 hours or fewer a week and wouldn't qualify for benefits anyway. The timing of the strikes was no accident because Uber faced its IPO (initial public offering) the same week. Since then, Uber reported its largest quarterly loss in August 2019 of $5.2 billion. Furthermore, Lyft's shares fell 20% since its March 2019 IPO. If drivers were considered employees, they would get the same benefits and labor protection of other employees. Legally, they would be entitled to unemployment insurance, health care subsidies, overtime pay and a guaranteed minimum wage, among other rights. The lawsuit currently progressing through the court system in California is projected to be passed into law by the state senate. Uber and Lyft are not the only companies using "gig" workers. For example, another booming business model is food delivery, like Grubhub and DoorDash. Part of these companies' pushback is saying they will not be able to employ as many people due to the costs of benefits. In California, Uber is estimated to have 140,000 drivers and Lyft to have 80,000 drivers. Barclays, a renowned worldwide financial services company, estimated that benefits, payroll taxes and workers compensation would cost Uber $508 million per year and Lyft $290 million per year, assuming the same number of drivers were employed. In June 2019, Uber's and Lyft's top executives joined together to write an op ed in the San Francisco Chronicle to explain their arguments and promise to address the quality of work and job security. In their op ed, the executives sought to provide information to the public and drivers about their positions regarding providing benefits to drivers, showing the desire to increase justice. By relying on a respected source of information (Barclays), the executives appeared to use the rule of Multiple Choice procedural: truthfulness informational; procedure O Interpersonal: Informational O о informational; truthfulness interpersonal: procedure Drivers sought to advocate not just for full-time drivers, but part-time drivers too, seeking justice according to the rule of Multiple Choice О accuracy. propriety O O representativeness. volce.

Multiple Choice equity, procedural O need; procedural O O equality procedural U equity, distributive O O need: distributive Because the Uber and Lyft drivers sought a decision through the standard mechanisms of the court system, they appear to have focused on a desire for what type of justice?

Answer:
By relying on a respected source of information (Barclays), the executives appeared to use the rule of:
informational truthfulness.
Drivers sought to advocate not just for full-time drivers, but part-time drivers too, seeking justice according to the rule of:
rule of propriety
When drivers stated that they should have benefits that represent the number of hours they work, more for full-time drivers and fewer for part-time drivers, in the same way the company provides for their corporate employees. This suggests the drivers' desire for benefits allocated according to:
equity type of justice.
When Lyft drivers sought a decision through the standard mechanisms of the court system, they appear to have focused on a desire for:
a. procedural justice.
Explanation:
Procedural justice requires fairness in the administration of justice and legal proceedings
Interpersonal justice implies that authorities treat people fairly.
Informational justice requires the provision of adequate information or explanation for decisions.
Interdependent justice describes fairness based on other agency relationships.
Distributive justice refers to strict equal treatment of all.

Hillary graduates from law school and gets a position in a law firm. At the same time the price of hamburger falls while other food prices have stayed the same. She notices that she buys less hamburger than she did before. Is she violating the law of demand?
Answer:
no, since other things are not held constant, including her income
Explanation:
The law of demand states that price has an inverse relationship with quantity demanded of a good. As price increases the demand reduces, and as price decreases quantity demanded increases.
However this is true when all other factors reman constant.
In the given scenario the price of hamburger has fallen but Hilary buys less of it. This looks like a violation of the law of demand, but her income has changed so the law of demand may not hold here.
All factors do not remain constant.
Hilary's behaviour can be explained by the concept income effect. Where an increase in income leads to the consumer buying more of expensive goods than cheaper ones.
Elbert Company classifies its selling and administrative expense budget into variable and fixed components. Variable expenses are expected to be $26,770 in the first quarter, and $5,240 increments are expected in the remaining quarters of 2020. Fixed expenses are expected to be $41,680 in each quarter. Prepare the selling and administrative expense budget by quarters and in total for 2020.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Variable expense= $26,770 ($5,240 increase each quarter)
Fixed expense= $41,680
First, we will calculate the total cost per quarter:
Q1= 26,770 + 41,680
Q1= $68,450
Q2= (26,770 + 5,240) + 41,680
Q2= $73,690
Q3= (32,010 + 5,240) + 41,680
Q3= $78,930
Q4= (37,250 + 5,240) + 41,680
Q4= $84,170
Now, the total cost:
Total annual cost= $305,240

On June 15, Oakley Inc. sells inventory on account to Sunglass Hut (SH) for $3,500, terms 2/10, n/30. On June 20, SH returns to Oakley inventory that SH had purchased for $800. On June 24, SH completely fulfills its obligation to Oakley by making a cash payment. What is the amount of cash paid by SH to Oakley
Answer:
$2,646
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of cash paid by SH to Oakley
Cash paid=($3,500-$800)-[($3,500-$800)*2%]
Cash paid =$2,700-$54
Cash =$2,646
Therefore The the amount of cash paid by SH to Oakley is $2,646
Barbara, a product manager at an organic soap manufacturing company, is supposed to interview a candidate for a new job opening in her department. The candidate arrives late to the interview, and therefore Barbara assumes that he will be tardy and uninterested in his job as well. Despite the fact that the candidate meets all the job requirements, Barbara rejects the candidate. Which of the following interview errors has Barbara most likely made?
A. The first-impression error.
B. The similarity error.
C. The contrast error.
D. The non-relevancy error.
Answer:
A. The first-impression error.
Explanation:
It is correct to say that Barbara probably made the first-impression error in the interview, because this error occurs when there are initial judgments about a candidate in the interview, it was what happened when Barbara thought that the candidate would be disinterested at work due to his late to the interview even the candidate meeting all the requirements of the position.
This error can be based on positive and negative judgments and can directly influence a job hiring.
Michelle is an active participant in the rental condominium property she owns. During the year, the property generates a ($15,000) loss; however, Michelle has sufficient tax basis and at-risk amounts to absorb the loss. If Michelle has $115,000 of salary, $10,000 of long-term capital gains, $3,000 of dividends, and no additional sources of income or deductions, how much loss can Michelle deduct
Answer: $11000
Explanation:
The total income earned by Mitchell will be the addition of the salary, long term capital gain and dividend. This will be:
= $115,000 + $10,000 + $3,000
= $128,000
The exception amount of $25000 can be gotten.
Modified adjusted gross income = $100,000
Phased out amount = ($128000 - $100000) × 50%
= $28000 × 0.5
= $14000
Mitchell's loss = $25000 - $14000 = $11000
Media outlets often have websites that provide in-depth coverage of news and events. Portions of these websites are restricted to members who pay a monthly subscription to gain access to exclusive news and commentary. These websites typically offer a free trial period to introduce viewers to the website. Assume that during a recent fiscal year, one outlet spent $2,368,800 on a promotional campaign for its website that offered two free months of service for new subscribers. In addition, assume the following information:
Number of months an average new customer stays with the service (including the two free months) 22 months
Revenue per month per customer subscription $21
Variable cost per month per customer subscription $7
Determine the number of new customer accounts needed to break even on the cost of the promotional campaign. In forming your answer:
a. treat the cost of the promotional campaign as a fixed cost
b. treat the revenue less variable cost per account for the subscription period as the unit contribution margin.
Answer: 8,905 customers
Explanation:
Breakeven = Fixed cost / Contribution Margin
Fixed cost = $2,368,800
Contribution margin = Revenue - Variable cost
Revenue will be for 20 months because there were 2 free months:
= 21 * 20
= $420 per customer
Variable cost = 7 * 22
= $154
Contribution margin = 420 - 154
= $266
Breakeven = 2,368,800 / 266
= 8,905 customers
John received a promotion at work and felt new clothes would be necessary in the new position. John went to a local store and charged three ties on his charge account at a cost of $60 each. Bill, a friend of John's, saw a sidewalk vendor selling ties at a cost of three for $10 and bought three at that price. The friends compared purchases that night and found that they had purchased identical ties. John became enraged and said that he would not pay the charge-account bill because the ties were clearly not worth $60 each. Bill indicated that he would testify on John's behalf if litigation ensued. What would be the probable outcome of the lawsuit
Answer:
John will lose the lawsuit
Explanation:
Businesses have a right to set the price of their products, and when the customers considers the price and agrees with it the deal is sealed.
In the given scenario John made the purchase at $60 per tie and he was satisfied with the sale at point of purchase.
He only became enraged when Bill told him he bought his identical ties at $10.
John will lose a lawsuit of he fails to pay the charge-account bill because he willingly agreed to the $60 per tie price.
Why were metal Coins suitable by then
Answer:
The coinage metals comprise, at a minimum, those metallic chemical elements which have historically been used as components in alloys used to mint coins. The term is not perfectly defined, however, since a number of metals have been used to make "demonstration coins" which have never been used to make monetized coins for any nation-state, but could be. Some of these elements would make excellent coins in theory (for example, zirconium), but their status as coin metals is not clear. In general, because of problems caused when coin metals are intrinsically valuable as commodities, there has been a trend in the 21st century toward use of coinage metals of only the least exotic and expensive types.

Cost of Living The City of St. Albans has a unionized police force that is coming up for a contract renewal. The police have one issue: the cost of living increases. During the past 10 years, police officers have received minimal cost of living increases, and this time they want to match what other police forces are making. They claim that their salaries are below the national level. The incoming new police hire earns a salary of $48,200.
Required:
Prepare the data and an argument on behalf of the police officers to support their position.
Answer:
Police officers are national servants. Their salary needs to be adequate so that they can maintain their standard of living.
Explanation:
Police officers should be paid according to their level of skills and expertise. If they are paid below their minimal cost of living then they will feel demotivated and will not be able to justify their job role. They need to be self motivated with their adequate pay so they feel pride to serve the nation. The police officers should be paid equally to the new police hire salary which is $48,200.

The product life-cycle theory: Select one: a. was a strong predictor of trade patterns during the 1800s. b. was useful for explaining the pattern of trade during the brief period of American global dominance. c. proved to be a poor explanation of world trade patterns during the 1960s and 1970s. d. remains a relevant theory of explaining international trade in the modern world.
Answer:
b. was useful for explaining the pattern of trade during the brief period of American global dominance.
Explanation:
A product life cycle can be defined as the stages or phases that a particular product passes through, from the period it was introduced into the market to the period when it is eventually removed from the market.
Generally, there are four (4) stages in the product-life cycle;
1. Introduction.
2. Growth.
3. Maturity.
4. Decline.
The theory of product life cycle asserts that all the raw materials or parts and the labour used for the manufacturing of the product must come from the specific location or area wherein it was produced for optimum profit.
Hence, the product life-cycle theory was useful for explaining the pattern of trade during the brief period of American global dominance.
