The computation of the net income is shown below:
In simple form, the net income equals to
= Total revenue - total expenditure
= Service revenue (from camping fees) + Sales revenue (from general store) - Expenses during 2017
= $168,960 + $32,000 - $161,280
= $39,680
The other items which are mentioned in the question are irrelevant. Therefore, these are ignored for the computation part
Lori borrows 10,000 for 10 years at an annual e ective interest rate of 9%. At the end of each year, she pays the interest on the loan and deposits the level amount necessary to repay the principal to a sinking fund earning an annual e ective interest rate of 8%. The total payments made by Lori over the 10-year period is X: Calculate X:
Answer: $15,903
Explanation:
Given that,
Lori borrows = 10,000
Time period = 10 years
Interest rate = 9%
Sinking fund (Interest rate) = 8%
Two payments are involved;
(i) the interest payment on the loan
(ii) the payment to the sinking fund
Annual interest payment = 10000 × 9%
= $900
Payment to the sinking fund:
Amount to be accumulated by the end of the 10th year along with interest = $10000
Amount to be deposited at the end of each year:
= [tex]10,000\times\frac{0.08}{(1.08^{10}-1) }[/tex]
= $690.29
Total payment per annum = $1,590.29
Total payment for the 10 year period = 1590.29 × 10
= $15,903
A track dozer cost $165,500 to purchase. Fuel, oil, grease, and minor maintenance are estimated to cost $35.00 per operating hour. A major engine repair costing $26,000 will probably be required after 7,200 hr of use. The expected resale price (salvage value) is 21% of the original purchase price. The machine is expected to have a useful life of 10,800 hr. How much should the owner of the machine charge per hour of use, if it is expected that the machine will operate 1,800 hr per year? The company's cost- of-capital rate is 7.3%.
Answer:
It will charge 54.22 per hour to obtain a yield of 7.3% on the track dozer.
Explanation:
purchase cost 165,500
repair costing 26,000 at year 4
annual cost: 1,800 x 35 = 63,000
salvage value at end of useful life:
21% of purchase cost :
21% of 165,500 = 34,755
We will calculate the present value of the salvage value and the overhaul, to know how much does the company need to generate per year:
165,000 + pv of overhaul + pv of salvage value = present value of the cash inflow
pv of the overhaul
[tex]\frac{overhaul}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
overhaul: 26,000
time 4
rate 0.073
[tex]\frac{26000}{(1 + 0.073)^{4} } = PV[/tex]
PV $19,614.3744
Then, the PV of the salvage value:
[tex]\frac{salvage}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
salvage 34,755
time 6
rate 0.073
[tex]\frac{34755}{(1 + 0.073)^{6} } = PV[/tex]
PV $22,772.9326
165,500 + 19,614.3744-22,772.9326 = 163,341.4418
The present value of the contribution per hour at 7.3% discount rate should equal this amount
So we will set up the formula for the cuota of an annuity:
[tex]PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C\\[/tex]
PV $163,341.44
time 6
rate 0.073
[tex]-34586.3538411519 \div \frac{1-(1+0.073)^{-6} }{0.073} = PV\\[/tex]
C 34,586.35
The contribution per year should be 34,586.35
each hour contribution should be: 34,586.35/1,800 = 19.2146
After the operating cost it should net 19.2146
hourly rate - 35 = 19.2146
hourly rate = 19.2146 + 35 = 54.2146 = 54.22
The owner of the track dozer should charge about $49.5 per hour to cover all associated costs and maintain the company's cost of capital rate of 7.3%.
Explanation:First, you need to calculate the total costs associated with the dozer over its expected life. The initial cost is $165,500. The ongoing costs are $35/hour for 10,800 hours, which equals $378,000. Now, the major maintenance cost of $26,000 should be included. So, the total cost at this point is $569,500 ($165,500 + $378,000 + $26,000).
However, at the end of its life, expect to be able to sell (salvage) the dozer for 21% of its original value, which is $34,755. So, subtract the salvage value from the total costs, producing a figure of $534,745. The owner needs to recover this cost over the life of the dozer.
The machine is expected to operate 1,800 hr per year. Then, divide the total cost ($534,745) by the total number of operating hours (10,800 hours). Thus, the owner should charge about $49.5 per hour to cover the total costs and maintain the company's cost of capital rate of 7.3%.

Andrew, a poor college student, drinks coffee late at night. He has no income and is buying cheap coffee, such as Beanlightened, that he grinds and then brews. The coffee tastes bad but its enough caffeine. He goes to Starbucks occasionally. After he graduates, he gets a job at a database firm as a prgrammer. His income is $75,000 a year. He ends up buying coffee daily at SB. This helps him get a Gold Star Reward Card, which allows him to get free refills. In economic terms, SB coffee is a(n) ____, while Beanlightened coffee is a(n) _____.
Andrew's demand for SB changed as a result of....
Answer:
According to the situation,
Starbucks coffee is a normal good and Bean-lightened coffee is an inferior good.
A normal good refers to a good whose demand is directly related with the income of an individual. So, an increase in the income of an individual will results in more demand for normal good.
A inferior good refers to a good whose demand is inversely related with the level of income of an individual. So, an increase in the income of an individual will results in less demand for inferior good.
Therefore, when Andrew was a college student, there is no income sources, so he prefer to drink Bean-lightened coffee that is an inferior good. But once he started earning then he prefer Starbucks coffee that is a normal good.
Hence, Andrew's demand for SB changed as a result of Increase in income.
he cost for producing a certain product is $37 each. The fixed costs are $70,000. The selling price for each product is $72. 1. What is the revenue function? a. R(x) = 37x – 70,000 b. R(x) = 37x c.

Answer:
Instructions are listed below
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The Variable unitary cost= $37 each.
The fixed costs are $70,000.
The selling price for each product is $72.
1) revenue function= P*X
Revenue function= 72*x
Option E
2) Profit function= (P-Vc)*X-Fc
Profit function= 35*x-70000
Option B
3) break-even quantity= fixed costs/contribution margin
break-even quantity= 70000/35= 2000 units
Option D
4) break-even point ($)=fixed costs/contribution margin ratio
Contribution margin ratio= contribution margin/P= 0,49
break-even point ($)=70000/0,4861111= $144000
The revenue function is R(x) = 72x, the profit function is P(x) = (72x - 70,000) - (37x), the break-even quantity is 2,000 units, and the break-even point is $144,000.
Explanation:1. What is the revenue function?
The revenue function can be calculated by multiplying the selling price per product by the quantity sold. In this case, the selling price is $72, so the revenue function is R(x) = 72x, where x represents the quantity sold.
2. What is the profit function?
The profit function is calculated by subtracting the total cost from the total revenue. The total cost includes both the fixed cost and the variable cost per product. In this case, the profit function is P(x) = (72x - 70,000) - (37x).
3. What is the break-even quantity?
The break-even quantity is the point at which the total revenue equals the total cost, resulting in zero profit. To calculate the break-even quantity, set the profit function equal to zero and solve for x. In this case, the break-even quantity is 2,000 units.
4. What is the break-even point?
The break-even point is the value of total revenue and total cost at the break-even quantity. At this point, the firm is neither making a profit nor incurring a loss. In this case, the break-even point is $144,000.
Casey Nelson is a divisional manager for Pigeon Company. His annual pay raises are largely determined by his division’s return on investment (ROI), which has been above 24% each of the last three years. Casey is considering a capital budgeting project that would require a $6,100,000 investment in equipment with a useful life of five years and no salvage value. Pigeon Company’s discount rate is 20%. The project would provide net operating income each year for five years as follows:
Sales $ 5,400,000
Variable expenses 2,400,000
Contribution margin 3,000,000
Fixed expenses: Advertising, salaries, and other fixed out-of-pocket costs $900,000
Depreciation 1,220,000
Total fixed expenses 2,120,000
Net operating income $ 880,000
Required: 1. What is the project’s net present value? (Round discount factor(s) to 3 decimal places.)
2. What is the project’s internal rate of return to the nearest whole percent?
3. What is the project’s simple rate of return? (Round percentage answer to 1 decimal place. i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12.3%.)
The question involves computing financial metrics for a capital budgeting project: NPV, IRR, and simple rate of return. NPV and IRR require discounting future cash flows, while the simple rate of return is the incremental net operating income divided by initial investment, which results in 14.4% for this project.
The question asks for an analysis of a capital budgeting project using multiple financial metrics such as net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), and simple rate of return to determine the project's viability. To compute NPV, we must discount the project's net operating income for each year at the given discount rate of 20% and subtract the initial investment. However, calculating IRR would require trying different rates until the NPV equals zero, which is typically done using financial calculators or software. The simple rate of return can be found by dividing the annual incremental net operating income by the initial investment.
NPV is a valuable tool for assessing the profitability of a project by comparing the value of money today with the value of that same money in the future, taking inflation and returns into account. Given Pigeon Company's discount rate and the provided cash flows, calculating NPV would help Casey determine if the project's earnings exceed anticipated costs. Unfortunately, without being able to perform that calculation here, we cannot provide the exact NPV or IRR values. Still, the simple rate of return is the project's incremental net operating income excluding depreciation, divided by the initial investment, resulting in 14.4%.

A cable company spends, on average, $ 600 to acquire a customer. Annual maintenance costs per customer are $ 45. Annual record-keeping and billing costs are $ 30 per customer. While the price of the basic service to customers is $ 30/month, 40% of customers buys the premium package at $ j50/month and 10% buy the superpremium package at $ 80/month. Over time, 80% of all customers remains with the company in the long run. The firm uses a discount rate of 8%. What is the average CLV for all customers?
Answer:
Average customer life value
CLV = 1260
Explanation:
[tex]Gross Margin \times\frac{retention}{1+discount-retention} )= CLV[/tex]
Fis, we will calcualteteh gross margin.
For that we need the revenue:
We will calculate the average revenue per year:
50% 30 dollars per month = 180
40% 50 dollars per month = 240
10% 80 dollars per month = 96
average annual revenue per customer: 516
now we ill calcualte the gross margin:
revenue 516
maintenance (45)
administrative (30)
gross margin 441
[tex]441 \times\frac{0.8}{1+0.08-0.80} )= CLV[/tex]
CLV = 1260

Woodcarving Co. incurred the following costs during May: Conversion costs $ 476,500 Prime costs 403,750 Manufacturing overhead 320,500 What was the amount of direct materials and direct labor used in May? Direct materials Direct labor A. $ 111,000 $ 292,750 B. $ 116,000 $ 209,500 C. $ 247,750 $ 156,000 D. $ 81,000 $ 86,000
Answer:
The correct answer is C
Explanation:
With the following information, we need to calculate the direct materials and direct labor:
Woodcarving Co. incurred the following costs during May:
Conversion costs $ 476,500
Prime costs 403,750
Manufacturing overhead 320,500
We know that:
Conversion cost= direct labor + Manufacturing overhead
476500= direct labor + 320500
direct labor= $156000
Prime costs= direct materials + direct labor
403750= direct materials + 156000
direct labor= $247750
Final answer:
The amount of direct materials used by Woodcarving Co. in May was $247,750, and the amount of direct labor was $156,000. These were calculated by using the given prime costs and conversion costs, and deducting the value of manufacturing overhead.
Explanation:
The question asks to find the amount of direct materials and direct labor used by Woodcarving Co. in May, given the costs of conversion, prime, and manufacturing overhead. To find these amounts, we need to understand that prime costs consist of direct materials plus direct labor, and conversion costs consist of direct labor plus manufacturing overhead.
If we denote direct materials as DM, direct labor as DL, and manufacturing overhead as MO, then we have the following relationships:
Prime costs (PC) = DM + DLConversion costs (CC) = DL + MOManufacturing Overhead (MO) is given as $320,500Using the provided numbers:
PC = $403,750CC = $476,500MO = $320,500We can calculate direct labor (DL) by rearranging the conversion costs equation:
DL = CC - MO
DL = $476,500 - $320,500
DL = $156,000
Now plug in the value of DL into the prime costs equation to find DM:
DM = PC - DL
DM = $403,750 - $156,000
DM = $247,750
So, the amount of direct materials used in May was $247,750 and the amount of direct labor was $156,000.
Written, Inc. has outstanding 600,000 shares of $2 par common stock and 120,000 shares of no-par 8% preferred stock with a stated value of $5. The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating. Dividends have been paid in every year except the past two years and the current year.
Assuming that $126,000 will be distributed as a dividend in the current year, how much will the preferred stockholders receive?
Final answer:
Preferred stockholders of Written, Inc. will receive the entire dividend distribution of $126,000 for the current year because the preferred stock is cumulative and dividends have been missed for the past two years.
Explanation:
The subject of this question is the distribution of dividends to preferred and common stockholders in a company context. To determine how much the preferred stockholders will receive from Written, Inc.'s dividend distribution of $126,000, we first need to calculate the total dividends owed to them, considering the dividends have been missed for the past two years and that the preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating.
The annual dividend per share for preferred stock is calculated as 8% of the stated value of $5, which amounts to $0.40 per share. Since there are 120,000 shares of preferred stock, the annual dividend to be distributed among all preferred shareholders equals $0.40 multiplied by 120,000, which amounts to $48,000.
Since the dividends are cumulative and have been missed for the past two years, we add the annual dividends for those two years to get a total of $48,000 x 3 (current year plus two past years) = $144,000. However, since the company is distributing only $126,000 this year, all goes to the preferred shareholders, and there is still a remaining deficit of $18,000 ($144,000 - $126,000) that the company will owe to the preferred shareholders. Hence, the amount that the preferred stockholders will receive this year is the entire dividend amount of $126,000 since their dividends are in arrears and must be paid before common stockholders receive any dividends.
The labor force is comprised of those who are working for any number of hours (the employed) and those who are out of work but actively looking for a job (the unemployed). Calculate the size of the labor force. The size of the adult population is 30,000. The number working is 17,700 and the number of unemployed actively looking for work is 1,600. a. Labor Force: people A commonly reported labor statistic is the Labor Force Participation Rate 'LFPR':

Some persons are counted as out of the labor force because they have made no serious or recent effort to look for work. However, some of these individuals may want to work even though they are too discouraged to make a serious effort to look for work. If these individuals were counted as unemployed instead of out of the labor force, then
a. both the unemployment rate and labor-force participation rate would be higher.
b. the unemployment rate would be higher ,and the labor-force participation rate would be lower.
c. the unemployment rate would be lower, and the labor-force participation rate would be higher.
d. both the unemployment rate and labor-force participation rate would be lower.
Answer:
The correct answer is A: both the unemployment rate and labor-force participation rate would be higher.
Explanation:
The unemployment rate is the share of the labor force that is jobless, expressed as a percentage. To calculate the unemployment rate, the number of unemployed people is divided by the number of people in the labor force, which consists of all employed and unemployed people. It defines unemployed people as those who are willing and available to work, and who have actively sought work.
By increasing the number of people unemployed, the number of employed people is now divided by a larger base. Meaning that the unemployment rate increases.
The labor force participation rate measures an economy's active labor force and is the sum of all employed workers divided by the working-age population. It refers to the number of people who are either employed or are actively looking for work. The number of people who are no longer actively searching for work would not be included in the participation rate.
By increasing the number of people of unemployed people, they will be considered as people that are actively looking for work. Meaning that labor force participation increases.
All discouraged workers are counted as unemployed, both the unemployment rate and the labor-force participation rate would increase because these individuals are added both to the unemployed count and the total labor force count.
Explanation:The correct answer to this question is (a). If individuals who are too discouraged to make a serious effort to look for work were counted as unemployed instead of out of the labor force, both the unemployment rate and the labor-force participation rate would be higher. This is because the unemployment rate is a ratio that compares the number of unemployed individuals to the total labor force. Meanwhile, the labor-force participation rate measures the total number of individuals who are either employed or actively looking for work, as a percentage of the working-age population. Therefore, counting these discouraged workers as unemployed would add to both the number of people counted as unemployed and those considered as part of the labor force, raising both rates.

Annual Rate Period Invested Interest Compounded Future Value
(a) 10% 8 years Semiannually $ _____
(b) 12% 4 years Quarterly $ _____
(c) 36% 25 months Monthly $ _____
Answer:
(a) $43,656.90
(b) $33,698.70
(c) $43,967.70
Explanation:
Future Value of annuity shall be:
(a) 10% for 8 years, Semiannually compounded
In this since the interest is compounded semiannually, the effective interest rate = 10/2 = 5%
Future Value of $1 in 8 years with 10% interest compounded semiannually = 2.0789
Value of $21,000 = $21,000 [tex]\times[/tex] 2.0789 = $43,656.90
(b) 12% for 4 years, Quarterly Compounded
In this since the interest is compounded quarterly, that is 4 times in a year, effective interest rate = 12/4 = 3%
Future value of $1 in 4 years with 12% interest compounded quarterly = 1.6047
Value of $21,000 = $21,000 [tex]\times[/tex] 1.6047 = $33,698.70
(c) 36% 25 months, Monthly
In this since the interest is compounded monthly effective interest rate = 36/12 = 3%
Therefore, Future Value of $1 in 25 months @36% compounded monthly = $2.0937
Value of $21,000 = $21,000 [tex]\times[/tex] 2.0937 = $43,967.70
The future value of an investment can be calculated using the formula FV = PV * (1 + r/n)^(nt). The terms in the formula stand for present value, annual interest rate, number of compounding periods per year, and time in years. The future value is then computed for scenarios with different rates, time periods and compounding frequencies.
Explanation:To calculate the future value of an investment with semiannual, quarterly, or monthly compounding, we use the future value formula: FV = PV * (1 + r/n)^(nt). Here, FV is future value, PV is present value, r is annual interest rate, n is number of compounding periods per year, and t is time in years.
For (a) 10% annual rate, 8 years invested, semiannually compounded, n is 2. Therefore, the future value is $21000 * (1 + 0.10/2)^(2*8)For (b) 12% annual rate, 4 years invested, quarterly compounded, n is 4. Therefore, the future value is $21000 * (1 + 0.12/4)^(4*4)For (c) 36% annual rate, 25 months invested, monthly compounded, n is 12. Note that t is 25/12, as we need to convert months to years. Therefore, the future value is $21000 * (1 + 0.36/12)^(12*(25/12))You'll need to compute the above calculations and round to the nearest whole dollar amount for your final answers.

Statement #2: In Year 2, Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. was profitable. This statement is ____, because:
(A) Green Caterpillar’s total assets increased between Years 1 and 2.
(B) The cash and equivalents account increased between Years 1 and 2.
(C) Green Caterpillar’s retained earnings account increased between the end of Years 1 and 2.
Answer:
This statement is TRUE, because:
C) Green Caterpillar’s retained earnings account increased between the end of Years 1 and 2.
Explanation:
The only way to determine if a company was profitable is through the Net Profit in the Income Statement , if it was profitable it means that the result were allocated in Retained Earnings in the Balance Sheets because this account only growth with the results of the income statement, in this case the increase in the account was for $394.
Option A) is not true because the increase in total assets not only means a company´s positive results it could be because of the company increment the Accounts Receivable term and the Inventories which no means a positive result.
Option (B) in the case of cash increases it could be due to an increase in the total debt of the company as it's indicated in the Long Term Debt and because of new stock issues.
Both of this option are complementary to the option selected but this options alone doesn't indicate a profitabilty year.

A university spent $1.7 million to install solar panels atop a parking garage. These panels will have a capacity of 300 kilowatts (kW) and have a life expectancy of 20 years. Suppose that the discount rate is 20%, that electricity can be purchased at $0.10 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), and that the marginal cost of electricity production using the solar panels is zero. Hint: It may be easier to think of the present value of operating the solar panels for 1 hour per year first. Approximately how many hours per year will the solar panels need to operate to enable this project to break even? 10,472.99 17,454.99 5,818.33 11,636.66 If the solar panels can operate only for 10,473 hours a year at maximum, the project break even. Continue to assume that the solar panels can operate only for 10,473 hours a year at maximum. In order for the project to be worthwhile (i.e., at least break even), the university would need a grant of at least
Answer:
the solar panels need to operate 11,636.66 hours to brak even
at 10,473 hours per year the project don't break-even It will need a grant for 170.026,74 dollars to do so.
Explanation:
300 kilowatts x 0.1 = 30 dollars of saving per hour:
we need to find the couta of a present value of 1,700,000 for 20 years at 20% discount rate:
[tex]PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C\\[/tex]
PV $1,700,000.00
time 20
rate 0.2
[tex]1700000 \div \frac{1-(1+0.2)^{-20} }{0.2} = C\\[/tex]
C $ 349,106.102
Each hour saves 30 dollars
so 349,106.10/30 = 11.636,87 hours
IF the solar panels operate 10,473 hours per year then:
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
C 314,190
time 20
rate 0.2
[tex]314190 \times \frac{1-(1+0.2)^{-20} }{0.2} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $1,529,973.2565
the present value of the panel is 1,529,973.26
The university would need a grant for 170.026,74
Final answer:
Explanation of break-even calculation and grant needed for a solar panel installation project.
Explanation:
Break-even calculation:
Calculate the annual electricity generation: 300 kW x 10,473 hours = 3,142,900 kWh
Calculate the present value of operating the solar panels for 1 hour per year: PV = 300 kW x $0.10/kWh / (1 + 0.20) = $2.50
Find the break-even hours per year: $1.7 million / $2.50 = 680,000 hours
Grant needed: At least $1,700,000 to cover the initial investment cost

What was the amount?
The firm earned a net income of $21,200 for the period.
Explanation:The firm earned a net income for the period. To determine the net income, we need to calculate the total revenue and total expenses. The total revenue is obtained by adding the fees for computer repairs and fees for printer repairs, which gives us -
= $41,600 + $5,950
= $47,550.
The total expenses are obtained by adding the advertising expense, salaries expense, telephone expense, and utility expense, which gives us -
$5,700 + $18,500 + $850 + $1,300 = $26,350.
Net income is calculated by subtracting total expenses from total revenue, so -
= $47,550 - $26,350
= $21,200.

Which of the following is an example of frictional unemployment? A. Dora lost her job when the textile mill closed. She does not have skills to work in another industry and has been unemployed for over a year. B. Marsha was laid off from her job with the airline because the recession has reduced the demand for airline travel. She expects to get her job back when the economy picks up. C. George is an unskilled worker who mows lawns in the summer, but is unemployed the rest of the year. D. Hector looked for a job for five weeks after finishing college. He turned down several jobs that didn't use his skills, but now has a job requiring the expertise he gained in college.
Answer:
The correct answer is D
Explanation:
Frictional unemployment is the time period between jobs when a worker is searching for or transitioning from one job to another. It can be voluntary based on the circumstances of the unemployed individual. Frictional unemployment exists because both jobs and workers are heterogeneous, and a mismatch can result between the characteristics of supply and demand. Such a mismatch can be related to skills, payment, work-time, location, seasonal industries, attitude, taste, and a multitude of other factors.
Answers A, B, C are examples of structural unemployment. Hector is unemployed because the jobs offering doesn't satisfy his requirements.
George is an unskilled worker who mows lawns in the summer but is unemployed the rest of the year. This is an example of frictional unemployment, which occurs when individuals are temporarily unemployed while transitioning between jobs or searching for new employment opportunities. Therefore, option C is correct.
Frictional unemployment refers to the temporary unemployment that occurs when individuals are between jobs or actively seeking new employment. It is a natural part of the labor market as workers transition and search for better job opportunities that match their skills and preferences.
Frictional unemployment can arise due to various factors such as job changes, layoffs, voluntary job separations, or recent entry into the labor force. It is considered relatively short-term and often occurs in a healthy and dynamic labor market where individuals have mobility and opportunities for job transitions.

JWS Transport Company’s employees earn vacation time at the rate of 1 hour per 30-hour work period. The vacation pay vests immediately (that is, an employee is entitled to the pay even if employment terminates). During 2018, total wages paid to employees equaled $415,000, including $5,500 for vacations actually taken in 2018 but not including vacations related to 2018 that will be taken in 2019. All vacations earned before 2018 were taken before January 1, 2018. No accrual entries have been made for the vacations. No overtime premium and no bonuses were paid during the period. Required:Prepare the appropriate adjusting entry for vacations earned but not taken in 2018. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
Wage Expense ............ $8,150 Dr
Liability ..................................................... $8,150 Cr
Explanation:
If employees earn 1 hour of vacation per 30 hours of work, then vacation earned in 2018 would be 1/30 of wages, that is
($415,000 - $5,500) x 1/30 = $409,500 x 1/30 = $13,650
Of that amount, $5,500 has been paid so
$13,650 - $5,500 = $8,150
The appropriate adjusting entry for vacations earned but not taken in 2018 is
Wage Expense ............ $8,150 Dr
Liability ..................................................... $8,150 Cr
Hope this helps!
To prepare the appropriate adjusting entry for vacations earned but not taken in 2018, calculate the number of vacation hours earned but not taken based on the information provided. Then, prepare the adjusting entry by debiting the Vacation Expense account and crediting the Vacation Pay Liability account.
Explanation:In order to prepare the appropriate adjusting entry for vacations earned but not taken in 2018, you need to calculate the number of vacation hours earned but not taken in 2018 based on the information provided. The employees earn vacation time at the rate of 1 hour per 30-hour work period. Therefore, you need to divide the total wages paid to employees in 2018 ($415,000) by the hourly wage rate ($415,000 / $2.13) to determine the total number of work hours. Then, divide the total work hours by 30 to find the number of vacation hours earned but not taken. Finally, you can prepare the adjusting entry by debiting the Vacation Expense account and crediting the Vacation Pay Liability account for the amount of vacation pay earned but not taken in 2018.
