The selling price and cost per unit data for 9,000 units of Fluoro2211 are as follows. Per Unit Data Selling Price $150 Direct Materials 20 Direct Labor 15 Variable Manufacturing Overhead 12 Fixed Manufacturing Overhead 30 Variable Selling 3 Fixed Selling and Administrative 10 Total Costs 90 Operating Margin $60 During the next year, sales of Fluoro2211 are expected to be 10,000 units. All costs will remain the same except for fixed manufacturing overhead, which will increase by 20%, and material, which will increase by 10%. The selling price per unit for next year will be $160. Based on these data, Razor Inc.'s total contribution margin for next year will be: Group of answer choices $882,000. $980,000. $972,000. $1,080,000.
Answer:
d. $1,080,000
Explanation:
Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - ( Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Variable Manufacturing Overhead + Variable Selling )
Contribution per unit = $160 - ($22 + $15+ $12 + $3)
Contribution per unit = $160 - $52
Contribution per unit = $108 per unit
Contribution margin for the next year = $108 per unit * 10,000
Contribution margin for the next year = $1,080,000
Your brother-in-law borrowed $1,000 from you 10 years ago and then disappeared. Yesterday he returned and expressed a desire to pay back the loan, including the interest accrued. Assuming you had agreed to charge him interest of 7.00% per year, and that he wishes to make five equal annual payments beginning in one year, how much would your brother-in-law have to pay annually (rounded to the nearest dollar) to extinguish the debt
Answer:
$479.11
Explanation:
Loan + Accrued interest (1000*1.07^10) = 1,967.15
PMT = P *r*(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n - 1)
PMT=Monthly payment , P = Principal=1967.15 , r = interest rate=0.07,n=number of payment =5
PMT=1967.15*.07*(1+.07)^5/((1+.07)^5 – 1)
PMT = 479.11

Fuzzy Button Clothing Company reported sales of $820,000 at the end of last year; but this year, sales are expected to grow by 10%. Fuzzy Button expects to maintain its current profit margin of 23% and dividend payout ratio of 10%. The firm’s total assets equaled $500,000 and were operated at full capacity. Fuzzy Button’s balance sheet shows the following current liabilities: accounts payable of $65,000, notes payable of $25,000, and accrued liabilities of $60,000. Based on the AFN (Additional Funds Needed) equation, what is the firm’s AFN for the coming year? -$149,214 -$164,135 -$186,518 -$134,293
Answer:
-$149,214
Explanation:
EFN = (A/S) x (Δ Sales) - (L/S) x (Δ Sales) - (PM x FS x (1-d))
A/S = assets / sales = 500,000 / 820,000 = 0.60976
ΔSales = $820,00 x 10% = $82,000
L/S = liabilities / sales = 125,000 / 820,000 = 0.15244
PM = profit margin = 23%
FS = forecasted sales = $902,000
1 - d = 1 - 10% = 0.9
EFN = (0.60976 x $82,000) - (0.15244 x $82,000) - ($902,000 x 0.23 x 0.9) = $ 50,000 - $12,500 - $186,714 = -$149,214

probabilities with more than one states moving from one to another. With transitional matrix, prediction can be made as well as the followed trend of events.it can be regarded as stochastic matrix.
In the case whereby Paul, needs information about the number of employees currently providing customer service, the number likely to be in those jobs next year, and the number expected to move to other positions in the organization, it will be easier to organize and interpret all these information if Paul uses transitional matrix because there are different states of information here, and he needs to move from one to the other.
Suppose you win a small lottery and have the choice of two ways to be paid: You can accept the money in a lump sum or in a series of payments over time. If you pick the lump sum, you get $2,850 today. If you pick payments over time, you get three payments: $1,000 today, $1,000 1 year from today, and $1,000 2 years from today. At an interest rate of 5% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the , since that choice has the greater present value. At an interest rate of 8% per year, the winner would be better off accepting , since it has the greater present value. Years after you win the lottery, a friend in another country calls to ask your advice. By wild coincidence, she has just won another lottery with the same payout schemes. She must make a quick decision about whether to collect her money under the lump sum or the payments over time. What is the best advice to give your friend
Answer:
The lump-sum is better.
Explanation:
It depends on the interest rate. In this case, the lump-sum is the better option.

Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year.
Answer:
cost of goods manufactured= $890,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Applied Overhead= $485,000
Other costs incurred:
Purchases of raw materials (both direct and indirect) - $400,000
Direct labor costs - $60,000
Inventories:
Raw materials, beginning - $20,000
Raw materials, ending - $30,000
Work in process, beginning - $40,000
Work in process, ending - $70,000
To calculate the cost of goods manufactured, we need to use the following formula:
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials used + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory
Direct material used= 20,000 + (400,000 - 15,000) - 30,000
Direct material used= 375,000
I deduct the indirect material included in manufacturing overhead.
cost of goods manufactured= 40,000 + 375,000 + 60,000 + 485,000 - 70,000
cost of goods manufactured= $890,000
Bond Industries uses departmental overhead rates to allocate its manufacturing overhead to jobs. The company has two departments: Assembly and Sanding. The Assembly Department uses a departmental overhead rate of $20 per machine hour, while the Sanding Department uses a departmental overhead rate of $15 per direct labor hour. Job 542 used the following direct labor hours and machine hours in the two departments: Actual results Assembly Department Sanding Department Direct labor hours used 4 3 Machine hours used 9 5 The cost for direct labor is $25 per direct labor hour and the cost of the direct materials used by Job 542 is $1,200. What was the total cost of Job 542 if Bond Industries used the departmental overhead rates to allocate manufacturing overhead
Answer:
Total cost= $1,600
Explanation:
First, we need to allocate overhead to each department:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Assembly Department= 20*9= $180
Sanding Department= 15*3= $45
Now, we can calculate the total cost of Job 542:
Total cost= 1,200 + (25*7) + (180 + 45)
Total cost= $1,600

8. The goal of Full Employment provides
as many jobs as possible
more money for economic output
more tax revenue for the government
all of the above
Answer:
all of the above
Explanation:
Full employment is a macroeconomic objective that targets to have all available labor resources employed most efficiently. In a full-employment situation, there is a zero or very low unemployment rate. In reality, a 3 to 4 percent unemployment rate is considered full employment.
some of the benefits of pursuing full employment include
Improved living standards: Employment moves people from zero to at least the minimum income, thereby improving their living standards.Widen tax base: Government can collect more taxes with a larger number of employed people.Increase income: with increased incomes, there is increased consumption in the economy. The multiplier effect of increased spending is more job opportunities and higher earnings.Full employment relieves the government from the burdens of social support.It improves equity in wealth distribution.Jing Company was started on January 1, Year 1 when it issued common stock for $50,000 cash. Also, on January 1, Year 1 the company purchased office equipment that cost $34,000 cash. The equipment was delivered under terms FOB shipping point, and transportation cost was $2,000. The equipment had a five-year useful life and a $12,000 expected salvage value. Using double-declining-balance depreciation, what the amount of depreciation expense and the amount of accumulated depreciation, respectively, that would appear on the December 31, Year 3 financial statements?
Answer:
Depreciation expense - year 3 = $5184
Accumulated depreciation - Year 3 = 23040 + 5184 = $28224
Explanation:
The Financial reporting standards state that the cost of a fixed asset should include the purchase cost and all the costs necessary to bring the asset to the place and in the condition necessary for its use as intended by the management. Thus, the transportation cost will be capitalized as in FOB Shipping Point, the buyer pays for the transportation.
Cost of office equipment = 34000 + 2000 = $36000
Th double declining balance method is an accelerated method to charge depreciation in which higher depreciation is charged in the initial years and lower in the later years.
The formula for depreciation expense under this method is,
Depreciation expense = 2 * [(Asset cost - Accumulated depreciation)/Estimated useful life of the asset]
Depreciation expense - year 1= 2 * [(36000 - 0) / 5
Depreciation expense - year 1 = $14400
Depreciation expense - year 2 = 2 * [(36000 - 14400) / 5]
Depreciation expense - year 2 = $8640
Accumulated depreciation - year 2 = 14400 + 8640 = 23040
Depreciation expense - year 3 = 2 * [(36000 - 23040) / 5]
Depreciation expense - year 3 = $5184
Accumulated depreciation - Year 3 = 23040 + 5184 = $28224

Clayborn's May bank statement shows $22,600 on deposit in the bank. Determine the adjusted cash balance using the following information: Deposit in transit $ 7,750 Outstanding checks $ 6,300 Bank service fees, not yet recorded by company $ 110 A NSF check from a customer, not yet recorded by the company $ 1,365 The adjusted cash balance should be:
Answer:
$24,050
Explanation:
Calculation for the adjusted cash balance
Using this formula
Adjusted cash balance= Bank balance + Deposits in transit - Outstanding check
Let plug in the formula
Adjusted cash balance= $22,600 + $7,750 - $6,300
Adjusted cash balance= $24,050
Therefore the adjusted cash balance should be $24,050
Consider a budget line drawn with avocados on the vertical axis and tangerines on the horizontal axis. The consumer's income is $100, the price of avocados is $5, and the price of tangerines is $10. Suppose the consumer's income falls to $75.00, but the prices stay the same. The change in income produces a: Group of answer choices parallel shift inward of the indifference curves. new budget line which is steeper than the original one. parallel shift inward of the budget line. new budget line which is flatter than the original one.
Answer:
new budget line which is steeper than the original one.
Explanation:
I drew the both budget lines in order to show the effect of the decrease in income.
The new budget line shifts inward and it is slightly more steep than the original budget line because the consumer can only purchase 7 tangerines, he cannot purchase 7.5. This slight difference makes the slope steeper. The total possible quantity of avocados diminished by 25%, while the total possible quantity of tangerines diminished by 30%.

In this type of business, there is no legal distinction between the owner and the business, which means that the owner is personally responsible for all the debts and liabilities of the business.
This means that the owner is also entitled to all the profits of the business, and has complete control over its operations. Sole proprietorships are generally the simplest and least expensive type of business to set up, and they are often used by small businesses, freelancers, and independent contractors.
However, they also have some disadvantages, such as limited access to funding, lack of liability protection, and the potential for the business to end if the owner dies or becomes incapacitated.

Stanley-Morgan Industries adopted a defined benefit pension plan on April 12, 2021. The provisions of the plan were not made retroactive to prior years. A local bank, engaged as trustee for the plan assets, expects plan assets to earn a 10% rate of return. The actual return was also 10% in 2021 and 2022\.\* A consulting firm, engaged as actuary, recommends 5% as the appropriate discount rate. The service cost is $300,000 for 2021 and $390,000 for 2022. Year-end funding is $310,000 for 2021 and $320,000 for 2022.

When a market successfully understands a negative externality like pollution, and assigns costs in a way that they are reflected in the market price, the market is said to be ________________________.
Answer:
allocating resources efficiently
Explanation:
A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.
Negative externality causes inefficient allocation of resources. By assigning costs to negative externality, the negative externality produced would reduce and this would lead to efficient allocation of resources

What is the expected return of Intel stock? b. What is the expected return of Boeing stock? c. What is the beta of a portfolio that consists of Intel stock and Boeing stock? d. What is the expected return of a portfolio that consists of Intel stock and Boeing stock? (There are two ways to solve this.
Answer:
a. Expected return of Intel stock
= Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - risk free rate)
= 5.6% + 1.69(12.2% - 5.6%)
= 16.75%
b. Expected return of Boeing stock
= Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - risk free rate)
= 5.6% + 0.88(12.2% - 5.6%)
= 11.40%
c. Beta of a Portfolio with 60% Intel stock and 40% Boeing stock.
= Weighted average of betas
= (0.6 * 1.69) + ( 0.4 * 0.88)
= 1.37
d. First method - Weighted average of both returns
= (0.6 * 16.75%) + (0.4 * 11.40%)
= 14.6%
Second method - Use the Portfolio beta and CAPM
= Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - risk free rate)
= 5.6% + 1.37(12.2% - 5.6%)
= 14.6%
