Yesterday, Casey received a cable company ad for bundled TV, telephone, and Internet service that cost appreciably more than what she is currently paying. At the same time, she received a notice from her utility company that summer rates would be increasing. Her schoolbooks are costing almost twice what they cost last year, and yesterday, gasoline cost her 30 cents more per gallon than it did last week. As she ponders the situation, she can't help but wonder how prices could be rising when so many people have lost their jobs and are cutting back on expenditures. She is certain that this situation characterizes her economics professor's description of stagflation.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

It is true that her situation characterizes what her economics professor's mentioned on stagflation.

She experienced high internet cost more than she is paying, she was also notified on an increase in the utility summer rates, increase in the cost of her schoolbooks, and gasoline all point to what stagflation is.

Stagflation is detected when a nation experiences slow economic growth obvious with an increase in the cost of goods, which means a reduction in purchasing power as Casey experienced. When companies want to still be running their business, they will increase the cost of their services as there are fewer goods available and the currency weakened.

A ) quantity demanded for those machines will increase.

B) demand for those machines will shift right.

C) quantity supplied of those machines will go up.

D) quantity supplied of those machines will decrease.

If production costs decrease, the supply curve will shift to the right, increasing the total quantity supplied while decreasing the sales price. Advances in technology increase productivity, which allows companies to supply a higher amount of goods at lower prices, which in turn increases the total quantity demanded for these goods.

The city of​ Belgrade, Serbia, is contemplating building a second airport to relieve congestion at the main airport and is considering two potential​ sites, X and Y. Hard Rock Hotels would like to purchase land to build a hotel at the new airport. The value of land has been rising in anticipation and is expected to skyrocket once the city decides between sites X and Y.​ Consequently, Hard Rock would like to purchase land now. Hard Rock will sell the land if the city chooses not to locate the airport nearby. Hard Rock has four​ choices: (1) buy land at​ X, (2) buy land at​ Y, (3) buy land at both X and​ Y, or​ (4) do nothing. Hard Rock has collected the following data​ (which are in millions of​ euros):


Site X Site Y
Current purchase price 29 18
Profits if airport & hotel built at this site 35 30

Hard Rock determines there is a 55% chance the airport will be built at X (hence, a 45% chance it will be built at Y)

Answer:

b. 50,000

Explanation:

According to the given situation, the computation of impairment loss is shown below:-

The Amount of impairment loss to be recognized at December 31, 20X8 is

= Net assets - Fair value of reporting unit

= $310,000 - $260,000

= $50,000

Answers

Answer:

Materials cost per unit: $3.80

Conversion cost per unit:  $4.54

Compute total manufacturing costs: $92,480

Explanation:

Unit Costs = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units

1. Materials

Unit Cost = $38,000 ÷ 10,000

                = $3.80

2. Conversion Costs

Unit Cost = $54,480 ÷ 12,000

                = $4.54

Total Manufacturing Costs :

Materials                      $38,000

Conversion Costs        $54,480

Cooperative San José of southern Sonora state in Mexico makes a unique syrup using cane sugar and local herbs. The syrup is sold in small bottles and is prized as a flavoring for drinks and for use in desserts. The bottles are sold for $12 each. The first stage in the production process is carried out in the Mixing Department, which removes foreign matter from the raw materials and mixes them in the proper proportions in large vats. The company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system.

A hastily prepared report for the Mixing Department for April appears below:

Units to be accounted for:
Work in process, April 1 (materials 90% complete; conversion 80% complete) 5,700
Started into production 34,100
Total units to be accounted for 39,800
Units accounted for as follows:
Transferred to next department 29,400
Work in process, April 30 (materials 70% complete; conversion 50% complete) 10,400
Total units accounted for 39,800

Cost Reconciliation Cost to be accounted for:

Work in process, April 1 $15,276

Required:

a. What were the Mixing Department's equivalent units of production for materials and conversion for April?
b. What were the Mixing Department's cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion for April? The beginning inventory consisted of the following costs: materials, $10,545; and conversion cost, $4,731. The costs added during the month consisted of: materials, $64,649; and conversion cost, $31,599.
c. How many of the units transferred out of the Mixing Department in April were started and completed during that month?
d. The manager of the Mixing Department stated, "Materials prices jumped from about $1.65 per unit in March to $2.15 per unit in April, but due to good cost control I was able to hold our materials cost to less than $2.15 per unit for the month." Should this manager be rewarded for good cost control?

Answers

Answer:

a. EU:

materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680

conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600

b. cost per EU:

materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05

conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05

c. units started and completed during April = 23,700

d. no, he didn't do anything, When a company uses the weighted average process costing method, the cost of beginning WIP is used to determine the cost per equivalent unit. On the other hand, FIFO process costing method doesn't, it only considers costs incurred during the month to calculate cost per equivalent unit.

Explanation:

beginning WIP 5,700 $15,276

materials, $10,545

conversion cost, $4,731

units started 34,100

costs added during the month = $96,248

materials, $64,649

conversion cost, $31,599

units transferred out 29,400 $91,140

ending WIP 10,400 $20,384

materials 70% = 7,280 EU

conversion 50% = 5,200 EU

EU:

materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680

conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600

total cost for materials = $64,649 + $10,545 = $75,194

total cost for conversion = $31,599 + $4,731 = $36,330

cost per EU:

materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05

conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05

units started and completed during April = 29,400 - 5,700 = 23,700

What are some of the government requirements imposed on a public corporation that are not imposed on a private, closely held corporation? Discuss pros and cons of each

Answers

Answer:

The government (the SEC) imposes several regulations on publicly traded corporations and requires mandatory reporting regarding their financial position, compensation to key employees, auditing and accounting procedures, conflicts of interest between upper management and shareholders, operating results, etc.

The pros of that large amount of reports is that it makes management accountable for what happens and it makes their job more transparent.

The downside is that they are expensive and time consuming.

On the other hand, privately held corporations decide what to disclose to the general public or the government. The IRS is something that cannot be avoided, but the SEC and its scrutiny is avoided.

Other advantages of publicly held corporations:

a publicly held corporation should be able to raise larger amounts of capitalsince the number of owners is larger, debt per ownership stake is generally much lowertop management tends to be more independent and suffer less pressures from individual stockholderspublicly trades corporations tend to receive more publicity and are better knownthey also attract more talent

Other disadvantages of publicly held corporations:

publicly held corporation have a lot of owners and they all have the right to be informed about what happens within the corporation and vote to elect the board of directorssome decisions require that shareholders vote on them, e.g. mergersstock prices suffer from market riskgoing public is also expensive

Answers

Answer:

fixed income

Explanation:

During the expansion business cycle, economic activities are on the increase. Key economic indicators such as employment, incomes, business earnings, demand, and supply of goods and services show positive and progressive numbers. During expansion, the GDP growth rate is healthy, and the level of investment is high.

The expansion phase brings along inflationary pressure. At the peak or near the end of the expansion cycle, the inflation rate is always above the optimal level and sometimes in double digits.  A high rate of inflation weakens the purchases power of the local currency. Employees on a fixed income will be disadvantaged. Their income will afford them fewer goods and services compared to the period before expansion.

Company manufactures car seats in its plant. Each car seat passes through the assembly department and testing department. This problem focuses on the testing department. Direct materials are added when the testing department process is ​% complete. Conversion costs are added evenly during the testing​ department's process. As work in assembly is​ completed, each unit is immediately transferred to testing. As each unit is completed in​ testing, it is immediately transferred to Finished Goods. Company uses the​ weighted-average method of process costing. Data for the testing department for October are as​ follows:

Physical Units (Car Seats) Direct Materials Conversion Costs
Work-in-process, October 1 *a 5,000 $1,250,000 $402,750
Started during October 20,000

What is the percentage of completion for:​

a. Transferred-in costs and direct materials in beginning​ work-in-process inventory.
b. Transferred-in costs and direct materials in ending​ work-in-process inventory

Answers

Answer:

a. Beginning Work-In Process inventory

Transferred in Costs = 100%

All the transferred in costs will be accounted for in beginning Work-In Process inventory

Direct Materials = 0%

Conversion costs are not up to 90% so no Direct materials will be added.

b. Ending Work-In Process Inventory

Transferred in Costs = 100%

All the transferred in costs will be accounted for in ending Work-In Process inventory

Direct Materials = 0%

Conversion costs are not up to 90% so no Direct materials will be added.

Bonita Beauty Corporation manufactures cosmetic products that are sold through a network of sales agents. The agents are paid a commission of 18% of sales. The income statement for the year ending December 31, 2014, is as follows.

The company is considering hiring its own sales staff to replace the network of agents. It will pay its salespeople a commission of 8% and incur additional fixed costs of $7,500,000.
Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation

Answers

Answer: $56,040,000

Explanation:

Here is the question:

1.Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation's break-even point in sales dollars for the year.

Sales = $75,000,000

Less: variable cost = $75,000,000 + ($75,000,000 × 8%) = $31,500,000 + $6,000,000 = $37,500,000

Contribution margin = $37,500,000

Fixed cost = 10,260,000 + 10,260,000 + 7,500,000 = $28,020,000

Operating income = $11,130,000

Contribution margin = 0.5

Break even point in sales will now be:

= Fixed cost/contribution margin ratio

= $28,020,000/0.5

= $56,040,000

Precision Systems manufactures CD burners and currently sells 18,500 units annually to producers of laptop computers. Jay Wilson, president of the company, anticipates a 15 percent increase in the cost per unit of direct labor on January 1 of next year. He expects all other costs and expenses to remain unchanged. Wilson has asked you to assist him in developing the information he needs to formulate a reasonable product strategy for next year.

You are satisfied that volume is the primary factor affecting costs and expenses and have separated the semivariable costs into their fixed and variable segments. Beginning and ending inventories remain at a level of 1,000 units. Current plant capacity is 20,000 units. The following are the current-year data assembled for your analysis.

Sales price per unit $100
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $10
Direct labor $20
Manufacturing overhead and selling and administrative expenses 30 60
Contribution margin per unit (40%) $40
Fixed costs $390,000

Required:
a. What increase in the selling price is necessary to cover the 15 percent increase in direct labor cost and still maintain the current contribution margin ratio of 40 percent?
b. How many units must be sold to maintain the current operating income of $350,000 if the sales price remains at $100 and the 15 percent wage increase goes into effect?
c. Wilson believes that an additional $700,000 of machinery (to be depreciated at 20 percent annually) will increase present capacity (20,000 units) by 25 percent. If all units produced can be sold at the present price of $100 per unit and the wage increase goes into effect, how would the estimated operating income before capacity is increased compare with the estimated operating income after capacity is increased? Prepare schedules of estimated operating income at full capacity before and after the expansion.

Answers

Answer:

a. What increase in the selling price is necessary to cover the 15 percent increase in direct labor cost and still maintain the current contribution margin ratio of 40 percent?

estimated production costs per unit:

direct materials $10

direct labor $23

overhead $30

total $63

if we want contribution margin to remain at 40%, then selling price = $63 / (1 - 40%) = $105

to verify our answer, contribution margin = $105 - $63 = $42 / $105 = 40%

b. How many units must be sold to maintain the current operating income of $350,000 if the sales price remains at $100 and the 15 percent wage increase goes into effect?

if sales price doesn't change, then contribution margin = $37 (not $40)

units sold to keep profit at $350,000 = ($350,000 + $390,000) / $37 = 20,000 units per year

c. Wilson believes that an additional $700,000 of machinery (to be depreciated at 20 percent annually) will increase present capacity (20,000 units) by 25 percent. If all units produced can be sold at the present price of $100 per unit and the wage increase goes into effect, how would the estimated operating income before capacity is increased compare with the estimated operating income after capacity is increased? Prepare schedules of estimated operating income at full capacity before and after the expansion.

working at full capacity, sales price $100 (unchanged) and direct labor costs increasing by 15%

                                          capacity 20,000          capacity 25,000

sales revenue                     $2,000,000                  $2,500,000

direct labor                          $460,000                      $575,000

fixed costs                           $390,000                      $670,000      

operating revenue              $350,000                      $255,000

The expansion will result in lower operating profits ($95,000 less) so it should be discarded.

On June 30, 2021, Georgia-Atlantic, Inc. leased warehouse equipment from IC Leasing Corporation. The lease agreement calls for Georgia-Atlantic to make semiannual lease payments of $562,907 over a three-year lease term, payable each June 30 and December 31, with the first payment at June 30, 2021. Georgia-Atlantic's incremental borrowing rate is 10%, the same rate IC uses to calculate lease payment amounts. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis at the end of each fiscal year. The fair value of the equipment is $3 million.

Required:
a. Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2021 that Georgia-Atlantic uses to record the right-of-use asset and lease liability.
b. What pretax amounts related to the lease would Georgia-Atlantic report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021

Answers

Answer:

1. $3,000,000

2. Liability $1,996,041

Asset$2,500,000

Explanation:

1. Calculation to Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2021

Present value of lease payments will be calculated as : $562,907 × 5.32948

(Present value of an annuity due of $1:

n = 6, i = 5% is 5.32948)

Present value of lease payments = $3,000,000

Therefore the Present value of lease payments will be $3,000,000

2. Calculation to Determine the pretax amounts related to the lease that Georgia-Atlantic would report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021

Liability at December 31, 2021

Initial balance, June 30, 2021 3,000,000

June 30, 2021 Reduction(562,907)

Dec. 31, 2021 reduction (441052)

[562,907-(3,000,000-562,907)*5%]

December 31, 2021 NET LIABILITY $1,996,041

ASSETS at December 31, 2021

Initial balance, June 30, 2021 3,000,000

Accumulated depreciation at Dec. 31, 2021 (500,000)

(3000000/3*1/2)

December 31, 2021 ASSETS $2,500,000

Therefore the pretax amounts related to the lease that Georgia-Atlantic would report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021 will be : Liability $1,996,041

Asset$2,500,000

Svetlana won $1,000,000 in a contest, to be paid in twenty $50,000 payments at yearly intervals, the first payment paid at the time of the contest. (Of course, the present value of her winnings is less than $1,000,000.) Svetlana decided to keep X each year to spend and deposit the remaining $50;000 X into an account earning an annual effective interest rate of 5%. She chose the value X to be as large as possible so that, at the moment of the 20th deposit, the account would have grown to such a size that it would provide Svetlana and her heirs at least X per year in interest forever. Find X.

Answers

Answer: 31155.5

Explanation:

The following can be deduced from the question:

Money won = $1,000,000

Installments made yearly = $50,000

Interest rate = 5%

The yearly deposits made by Svetalana will be: = 500000-x

The future Value of the yearly deposits made by Svetalana will be:

= (50000-x) × (1/(1.05) + (1/(1.05)^2 .....(1/(1+0.05)^20))

= (500000-x) × 33.066

We should recall that the interest from the question is equated to x. This will be:

33.066 × (50000-x) × 0.05 =x

1.6533(50000 - x) = x

82665 - 1.6533x = x

2.6533x = 82665

x = 82665/2.6533

x = 31155.5

Create a timeline of the life of Julius Caesar.I have a timeline, I just need somebody to put the events in order.Gaius Julius Caesar was born in Rome on July 12 or 13 100 BCE. Born into an upper class family, Caesar and some of his relatives held important positions in the government. 409 years before Julius was born the Republic of Rome was a dangerous time. The republic was being governed by a Senate. Senates were elected by the people of Rome. When Rome was growing in population, it made it more difficult to govern. Senators fought amongst themselves for more power. The working class became frustrated with the noble class governing. It lead to civil wars in the republic. Caesar aligned himself with people who were against the nobility. He started his share in politics as an advocate in 78 BCE. He decided to study oratory in Rhodes, Greece in 76 BCE. During the trip he was captured by pirates. They held him for ransom money. Caesar got the ransom money himself and got released. Instead of retiring to his homeland, Caesar decided to organize a naval force that captured the pirates. Two years later, in 74 BCE, with no official place in the Roman government or army, Caesar decided to organize a private army. This army fought off the king of Pontus who was declaring war on the Romans. All of these events made Caesar well known and a public disagreement. He moved his way through different political positions in a dishonest way. Although Roman Senates disliked Caesar, they appointed him Farther Spain. In 59 BCE, Caesar was elected into consul no matter the Senates attempts to prevent it. Consuls had significant power and Caesar took advantage of this power. He formed the first triumvirate. He combined his power with Pompey and Crassus. Crassus was a wealthy politician and Pompey was a war hero who was not liked among the Senates. Caesar decided to pay off Pompeys soldiers by giving them land to reward Pompey. People organized a riot because they disliked the idea. These riots caused chaos. Caesar took this as a distraction to get his way. This distraction allowed Caesar to become governor of Gaul. Around 58 and 50 BCE, Caesars military conquered all of Gaul. During that time, Caesars triumvirate was falling apart while he was becoming very successful. Caesar gained enemies because he was becoming successful. Caesar thought the only way to protect himself was to seize the rest of Rome. In 49 BCE he began a civil war after leading his troops across the Rubicon River into Italy. In 46 BCE he made himself a dictator of Rome. He continued defeating his enemies before returning into Rome after a year. When he made his return he adopted his great nephew, Augustus. Caesar never had a son of his own. Caesar revised the Roman calendar and made Senates more representative. He made many foreigners, citizens of Rome. Although Caesar tried his best in protecting himself, Caesars old enemies and some of his supporters devised a plan to assassinate him. On March 15, 44 BCE, Caesars enemies killed him in the Senate House. Augustus, Caesars nephew, eventually took over in 32 BCE. Caesar made a long line in history of emperors.
