Answer:
$37,760
Explanation:
The income for the current operation, without further processing, is given by:
[tex]I_1 = 19,200*\$21.20\\I_1=\$407,040[/tex]
If the product is further processed at a cost of $11,200, the company would sell 11,200 units at $31,80 each and 5,200 at $19.20 each, for an income of:
[tex]I_2= 11,200*\$31.80+5,200*\$19.20-\$11,200\\I_2=\$444,800[/tex]
Therefore, the incremental net income of processing further would be:
[tex]\Delta I=I_2-I_1=\$444,800-\$407,040\\\Delta I=\$37,760[/tex]
The incremental net income would be $37,760.

On January 1, 2012, Browning Corporation had 75,000 shares of $1 par value common stock issued and outstanding. During the year, the following transactions occurred:
Mar. 1 Issued 60,000 shares of common stock for $675,000
June 1 Declared a cash dividend of $2.00 per share to stockholders of record on June 15
June 30 Paid the $2.00 cash dividend
Dec. 1 Purchased 5,000 shares of common stock for the treasury for $18 per share
Dec. 15 Declared a cash dividend on outstanding shares of $2.50 per share to stockholders of record on December 31
Net income for 2012 amounted to $951,000.
Instructions
Prepare journal entries to record the above transactions.
Answer:
The solution are given as under:
Explanation:
Part 1. The entry would record common stock at part and the above par value would be paid in capital.
Dr Cash $675,000
Cr Common Stock $60,000
Cr Paid In Capital $615,000
Part 2. When dividend is declared, dividend payable must be recognized against the Retained Earnings.
Dividends Payable can be calculated by finding out the total shares on 15th of June, which is:
Total shares = Shares issued + Previously Held shares
= 75,000 + 60,000 = 135,000
Now the total dividend that is payable is:
Dividend Declared = Total Number of Shares * Dividend per share
= 135,000 Shares * $2 per share = $270,000
Dr Retained Earnings $270,000
Cr Dividend Payables $270,000
Part 3. The payment of dividends will decrease the dividend payables with $270,000, so the double entry would be:
Dr Dividend Payables $270,000
Cr Cash Account $270,000
Part 4. The purchasing of the treasury stock would be recorded as under:
Dr Treasury Stock $90,000 ..... $15 per share * 5000 shares
Cr Cash Account $90,000
Part 5. The cash dividend declared would be similarly the way we calculated in the part 3 but here we will also account for the treasury stock as under:
Total shares = Shares issued + Previously Held shares - Treasury Stock
= 75,000 + 60,000 - 5,000 = 130,000
Now the total dividend that is payable is:
Dividend Declared = Total Number of Shares * Dividend per share
= 130,000 Shares * $2.5 per share = $325,000
Dr Retained Earnings $325,000
Cr Dividend Payables $325,000

Discuss the different roles played by the qualitative and quantitative approaches to managerial decision making. Why is it important for a manager or decision maker to have a good understanding of both of these approaches to decision making? Give an example of when the qualitative approach might be more appropriate and another example of when the quantitative approach might be more appropriate.
Explanation:
Regarding the management decision-making process, there are two different approaches that the manager must know and know how to use in certain situations.
The qualitative approach is one that is based on experimental knowledge of various factors involved in decision making, such as interpersonal connections that occur in the work environment, in this approach it is necessary that the manager has an intuition and accurate perception of the organization as a whole before making an important decision
The quantitative approach is one that uses mathematical statistics for decision making, generally works best for solving measurable problems, and for this reason can be used by a manager without much direct experience.
The qualitative approach may be more appropriate in a situation where a manager needs to solve problems related to situations of conflict between organizational departments, because in this scenario it is necessary to have knowledge of factors that generate the complex interaction between people.
The quantitative approach can be more useful in a scenario where it needs to analyze which are the most profitable departments in the organization and what is the probability of each department generating profits in the company, because in this case accounting data are used to support decision making.

Required:
1. What are the source documents for direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead costs assigned to this job?
2. What is the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate? (Round answer to 0 decimal places)
3. What are the total cost and the unit cost of the completed job? (Round unit cost to 2 decimal places)
4. Prepare the entry to record the completion of the job.
Answer and Explanation:
As per the data given in the question, the calculation and journal entry is given below:
1)
Source documents for direct material is Material requisition slip, For direct labor is time tickets and for manufacturing overhead cost is predetermined overhead rate.
2)
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate = 500 ÷ 400
= 1.25
= 125%
Hence, Predetermined overhead rate is 125% of labor cost.
3)
Total cost :
Direct material $4875 ($800 + $900 + $1600 + $1575)
Direct labor $1,300 ($400 + $300 + $600)
Manufacturing overhead $1,625 ($500 + $375 + $750)
Total cost $7,800 ($4875 + $1300 + $1625)
Now
Unit cost = Total cost ÷ Quantity
=$7,800 ÷ 2,500
= $3.12
4) The journal entry is
Finished goods inventory A/c Dr. $7,800
To Work in process inventory Cr. $7,800
(Being the completion of the job is recorded)
1. The source documents for each of the following is as follows:
direct material: the material requisition slip.direct labor: time tickets.manufacturing overhead costs: the predetermined overhead rate.2. The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is 125% of the direct labor cost.

The Sanding Department of Quik Furniture Company has the following production and manufacturing cost data for March 2020, the first month of operation. Production: 6,240 units finished and transferred out; 3,000 units started that are 100% complete as to materials and 20% complete as to conversion costs. Manufacturing costs: Materials $36,960; labor $21,400; overhead $30,242. Prepare a production cost report. (Round unit costs to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.25 and other answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)
Answer:
Cost of goods transferred out $71,061.012
Value of closing inventory = $17,540.98
Explanation:
Cost per equivalent unit = Cost /total equivalent unit
Material
Equivalent unit = (100%×6,240) +( 100%× 3,000) = 9240
Cost per equivalent unit = $36,960/9,240 units= 4
Labour
Equivalent unit = (100%×6,240) + ( 25%× 3,000)= 6990 units
Cost per equivalent unit = ( 21,400 + 30,242)/6990 = 7.387982833
Cost of goods transferred out= (6,240× 4) + (7.38×6,240)=71,061.012
Value of closing inventory = (3,000× 4) + (7.38× 25%*3000)= 17,540.98
Cost of goods transferred out $71,061.012
Value of closing inventory = $17,540.98

Kiano, a telecommunications equipment manufacturer, manufactures PDAs (P), wireless handsets (H), and blackberrys (B). They have a limited supply of common parts---ethernet card (450 in inventory), antenna (250 in inventory), chipset (800 in inventory), battery/power supply (450 in inventory), LCD screen (600 in inventory)---that these products use. A PDA requites an ethernet card, 2 chipsets, a power supply, and 2 LCD screens. A wireless handset requires an ethernet card, an antenna, 2 chipsets, a power supply, and a LCD screen. A blackberry requires a chipset and a LCD screen. The profit on PDAs is $80, the profit on wireless handsets is $60, and the profit on blackberrys is $35. The following is a linear programming formulation of the problem.
Let
P = Number of PDAs produced
H = Number of wireless handsets produced
B = Number of blackberrys produced
We may write model for this problem as follows.
Maximize 80P + 60H + 35B
subject to:
(ethernet card constraint) P + H ? 450
(antenna constraint constraint) H ? 250
(chipset constraint) 2P + 2H + B ? 800
(power supply constraint) P + H ? 450
(LCD screen constraint) 2P + H + B ? 600
(non-negativity) P, H, B ? 0.
Implement the above model in Solver and make sure to choose Simplex as the solving method and to choose the option "Make Unconstrained Variables non-negative"---do not explicitly put in the non-negativity constraints in the model and using the sensitivity report only
answer the questions below:
a. Does the solution change if only 425 ethernet cards are available?
b. Is it profitable to produce Blackberrys? If not, by how much should the profit margin on Blackberrys be increased to make it profitable to produce Blackberrys?
c. Because of a change in production technology the profit margin on handsets has increased to $70. Should the production plan of Kiano change? What is their new profit?
d. 50 chipsets were found to be defective, making the number of available chipsets 750. What will the profit be in this situation?
e. Another supplier is willing to sell LCD screens to Kiano. However their prices for a LCD screen are $20 higher than what Kiano pays it's regular supplier. Should Kiano go ahead and purchase these electronic units? If yes, at most how many units should they purchase.
f. Kiano is considering introducing a new product (called the Revolutionary Communicator) that combines the wireless handset and PDA. This product uses an ethernet card, an antenna, 2 chipsets, 1 power supply, and 2 LCD screens, and is expected to make a profit of $100. Should Kiano produce the Revolutionary Communicator? Why or Why not?

Regulatory focus theory suggests that consumers will react differently depending on which broad set of motives is more salient. Name and describe the two prominent sets of motives and describe how consumers will react when each set of motives is more noticeable. Use a specific product or service to explain your answer.
Two prominent sets of motives under regulatory focus theory are termed Promotion and prevention.
What is regulatory focus theory?According to the regulatory focus hypothesis, people can work toward objectives with either a promotion or a preventive emphasis. People who aim for advancement interpret pleasure as the accomplishment of their aims, ambitions, and aspirations, and interpret suffering as their absence.
Motives assume that emotional trade-offs between both the coexisting motivational systems on promotion and prevention will always happen. Promotion-oriented people are opportunistic and look for real experiences as motivation to develop action-oriented objectives, which are necessary to getting outcomes.
People who have a prevention orientation are extremely optimistic and see keeping things as they are and preventing bad things from happening as their defining and overriding motives.

Answer:
ending inventory= $3,300
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Raw materials (all direct materials):
Beginning balance $9,700
Purchased during the month $25,000
Used in production $31,400
To calculate the ending balance for Direct materials, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory
31,400= 9,700 + 25,000 - ending inventory
ending inventory= 3,300
Sunland Sports sells volleyball kits that it purchases from a sports equipment distributor. The following static budget based on sales of 1,940 kits was prepared for the year. Fixed operating expenses account for 78% of total operating expenses at this level of sales.
Sales $ 97,000
Cost of goods sold (all variable) 58,200
Gross margin 38,800
Operating expenses 33,950
Operating income $ 4,850
Assume that during the year Sunland Sports actually sold 2,037 volleyball kits during the year at a price of $47 per kit.
Required:
1. Calculate the sales price variance.
Answer:
$6,111 unfavorable variance
Explanation:
The budgeted sales price can be determined by dividing budgeted sales of $97,000 by the budgeted sales volume of 1,940 kits i.e $50 ($97,000/1940)
However,2037 volleyball kits were sold for $47 each instead of the planned $50 per kit.
sales price variance=(actual sales volume*actual sales price)*(budgeted sales price*actual sales volume)
actual sales volume is 2037
actual sales price is $47
budgeted sales price is $50
sales price variance=($47*2037)-($50*2037)=$-6111
Square Block Company is comparing two different capital structures: An all-equity plan (Plan I) and a levered plan (Plan II). Under Plan I, the company would have 350,000 shares of stock outstanding. Under Plan II, there would be 225,000 shares of stock outstanding and $5 million in debt outstanding. The interest rate on the debt is 10 percent, and there are no taxes. a. If EBIT is $1,000,000, which plan will result in the higher EPS? b. If EBIT is $1,500,000, which plan will result in the higher EPS? c. What is the break-even EBIT?
Answer:
a. If EBIT is $1,000,000 Plan 1 will give higher EPS
b. If EBIT is $1,500,000 Plan 2 will give higher EPS
c. The break-even EBIT would be $ 1,400,000
Explanation:
a) In Plan 1
According to given data EBIT = $1,000,000
Since there is no debt, so there is no interest. Also there are no taxes
So , earnings avaliable to shareholders = $ 1,000,000
shares of stock outstanding = 350,000
EPS = 1,000,000 / 350,000 = 2.857
Plan 2
EBIT = $1,000,000
Debt = 5000000
Interest = 10% * 5000000 = $ 500000
So , EBIT -interest = $ 500000
Earnings avaliable to shareholders = $ 500000
shares of stock outstanding = 225000
EPS = 500000/ 225000= 2.222
So Plan 1 will give higher EPS
b) Plan 1
EBIT = $1,500,000
Since there is no debt, so there is no interest. Also there are no taxes
So , earnings avaliable to shareholders = $ 1,500,000
shares of stock outstanding = 350,000
EPS = 1,500,000 / 350,000 = 4.286
Plan 2
EBIT = $1,500,000
Debt = 5000000
Interest = 10% * 5000000 = $ 500000
So , EBIT -interest = $ 1000000
Earnings avaliable to shareholders = $ 1000000
shares of stock outstanding = 225000
EPS = 1000000/ 225000= 4.444
So Plan 2 will give higher EPS
c)
Let the breakeven EBIT be 'x'
So,
In breakeven EBIT both EPS for plan 1 and 2 will be same
So,
x / 350000 = ( x - 500000) / 225000
Solving for x , x= 1400000
Breakeven EBIT = $ 1,400,000
Use the following to answer question 80: Gross Corporation adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory valuation on December 31, 2011. Its inventory at that date was $440,000 and the relevant price index was 100. Information regarding inventory for subsequent years is as follows: Inventory at Current Current Prices Price Index December 31, 2012 $513,600 107 December 31, 2013 580,000 125 December 31, 2014 650,000 130 80. What is the cost of the ending inventory at December 31, 2013 under dollar value LIFO
Answer:
$465680
Explanation:
For calculating the ending inventory under the dollar value LIFO method we will follow the 2 steps given as under:
Step1:
Y = Current Price at year end / Price Index at that time
Step2:
Ending Inventory = Opening Inventory value + (Y - Opening Inventory Value) * Index Value
For the Year 2012
Step 1:
Y = 513,600 / 1.07 = $480,000
Step 2:
Ending Inventory = $440,000 + ($480,000 - 440,000) * 1.07 = $482,800
Similarly for the year 2013
Step 1:
Y = 580000 / 1.25 = $464,000
Step 2:
Ending Inventory = $440,000 + ($464,000 - $440,000) * 1.07 = $465,680
The answer is $465680.
There are some government programs that pay farmers not to plant wheat on part of their land.
This would help farmers:
A) by increasing total revenue but it hurts consumers.
B) by increasing prices for wheat by increasing total revenue and it also helps consumers by lowering the price of wheat.
C) since the government payment will reduce the costs of production and increase the supply of wheat.
D) since the government payment will increase income to farmers and it helps consumers too by lowering the price of wheat.
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
In simple words, the payment by government will work as a subsidy for the lost profits of the farmers and their income will be ineffective. Also, by not using that land the farmers can grow any other crop which can provide them higher income as compared to crops.
Such step will result in higher total revenue as wheat would not get wasted due to extra production, thus consumers will also not get hurt.
Answer:
Answer is A
Explanation:
I vividly remember taking this in college last year for econ. I even pulled out my old paper work for the quiz (I snuck a copy home). It is A, don't listen to this "expert answer" person.
d) Following is forecast for economic situation and Rachel’s portfolio returns next year, calculate the
expected return, variance and standard deviation of the portfolio. (4 marks)
State of economy Probability Rate of returns
Mild Recession 0.35 - 5%
Growth 0.45 15%
Strong Growth 0.20 30%
Answer:
Expected return = 15.25%
Variance = 80.31
Standard deviation = 8.961
Explanation:
Expected value of return (Er) =
(0.35 × 5%) + (0.45× 15%) + (0.20 × 30%)= 15.25 %
Variance and standard deviation
Outcome Rate Deviation Variance
r- Er (r-Er)^2.P
Mild 5 -10.25 36.771875
Growth 15 -0.25 0.028125
Strong 30 14.75 43.5125
Total 80.3125
Variance = 80.3125
Standard deviation = √variance = √80.3125
= 8.96
Expected return = 15.25%
Variance = 80.31
Standard deviation = 8.961
Colgate-Palmolive Company has just paid an annual dividend of $ 1.09. Analysts are predicting dividends to grow by $ 0.19 per year over the next five years. After then, Colgate's earnings are expected to grow 5.3 % per year, and its dividend payout rate will remain constant. If Colgate's equity cost of capital is 7.5 % per year, what price does the dividend-discount model predict Colgate stock should sell for today?
Answer:
$74.62
Explanation:
Div₀ = $1.09
expected growth $0.19 per year
Div₁ = $1.28
Div₂ = $1.47
Div₃ = $1.66
Div₄ = $1.85
Div₅ = $2.04
then constant growth rte of 5.3%
equity cost = 7.5%
first we need to determine the stock price in year 5 using the Gordon growth model:
stock price = [dividend x (1+g)] / (Re - g) = ($2.04 x 1.053) / (7.5% - 5.3%) = $97.64
now we can discount all the future cash flows:
stock price = $1.28/1.075 + $1.47/1.075² + $1.66/1.075³ + $1.85/1.075⁴ + $2.04/1.075⁵ + $97.64/1.075⁵ = $1.19 + $1.27 + $1.34 + $1.39 + $1.42 + $68.01 = $74.62
Trout farming is a perfectly competitive industry and all trout farms have the same cost curves.
When the market price is $25 a fish, farms maximize profit by producing 200 fish a week. At this output, average total cost is $20 a fish and average variable cost is $15 a fish. Minimum average variable cost is $12 a fish.
Required:
i) If the price falls to $20 a fish, will a trout farm produce 200 fish a week. Explain why or why not?
ii) If the price falls to $12 a fish, what will the trout farmer do?
iii) What are two points on a trout farm's supply curve?
Answer:
(i) The farm can cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will continue producing 200 units
(ii) The farm cannot cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will shut down
(iii) The two relevant points on supply curve will be: (Price = $12 & Quantity = 0) and (Price = $25 & Quantity = 200)
Explanation:
(i)According to given data, When output is 200 but price is $20, this price is equal to ATC, so the farm breaks even. But since this price is higher than AVC of $15, the farm can cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will continue producing 200 units.
(ii) When output is 200 but price is $12, this price is equal to ATC, so the farm makes economic loss. Also, this price is lower than AVC of $15, so the farm cannot cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will shut down.
(iii) The farm's supply curve is the portion of its Marginal cost (MC) curve above the minimum point of AVC. Since price equals MC, the two relevant points on supply curve will be: (Price = $12 & Quantity = 0) and (Price = $25 & Quantity = 200).
An ordinary annuity selling at $4,947.11 today promises to make equal payments at the end of each year for the next eight years (N). If the annuity’s appropriate interest rate (IN) remains at 6.50% during this time, the annual annuity payment (PMT) will be ________. You just won the lottery. Congratulations! The jackpot is $35,000,000, paid in eight equal annual payments. The first payment on the lottery jackpot will be made today. In present value terms, you really won ________ assuming annual interest rate of 6.50%.
Answer:
$812.49 and $28,369,687.5
Explanation:
Let us assume the annual payments be X
Sale of ordinary annuity = X × PVAF factor
$4,947.11 = X × PVAF(6.5%, 8 years)
$4,947.11 = 6.0888 × X
X = $812.49
And,
The Present value is
Present value = Annual payments + Annual payments × PVAF factor
= $4,375,000 + $4,375,000 × PVAF(6.5%, 7 years)
= $4,375,000 + $4,375,000 × 5.4845
= $28,369,687.5
The $4,375,000 is come from
= $35,000,000 ÷ 8 years
= $4,375,000
Refer to the PVAF factor table
We simply applied the above formulas
Call Systems Company, a telephone service and supply company, has just completed its fourth year of operations. The direct write-off method of recording bad debt expense has been used during the entire period. Because of substantial increases in sales volume and the amount of uncollectible accounts, the company is considering changing to the allowance method. Information is requested as to the effect that an annual provision of 1% of sales would have had on the amount of bad debt expense reported for each of the past four years. It is also considered desirable to know what the balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts would have been at the end of each year. The following data have been obtained from the accounts:
Year Sales Uncollectible Accounts Written Off receivable written
1st $ 900,000 $4,500 $4,500
2nd 1,250,000 9,600 3,000 $6,600

Year Bad Debt Expense
Expense Actually Expense Increase Balance of Allowance
Reported Estimated (Decrease) Account Year End
1) $4500 $ 9000 $4500 $ 4500
2) $ 9600 $12500 1900 $ 6400
3) $12800 15000 2200 $ 8600
4) 16550 22000 5450 14,050
Explanation:
The actual write off accounts originating in the years were
1) ( $ 4500+ $ 3000+ $ 1000+ $ 1500)= $ 9500
2) ( $ 6600+ 3700+ 4300) = $ 14600
3) ($ 8100+ $ 10,750)= $ 18,850.
Only the first year written off accounts are close to expense if it would have been calculated to 1% of sales ( 1% of $ 900,000) = $ 9000
