Answer:
The firm's total cost (TC) to produce 5,000 widgets is $12,000.
Explanation:
Total Cost : It is the sum of Fixed cost and Variable cost
where,
Variable cost is the cost which is change when production level changes. while, fixed cost is the cost which is fixed whether production level change or not.
The following information is given in the question:
1. Fixed cost = $10,000
2. Variable cost for 5,000 widgets = $2,000
3. Variable cost for 10,000 widgets = $3,000
The formula for calculating Total Cost to produce 5,000 widgets is shown below:
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
= $10,000 + $2,0000
= $12,000
Since, the question is asking for only $5,000 widgets and in the given question, the variable cost is given for $5,000 widgets is $2,000 . So, this variable cost is used and for the fixed cost the amount will be same.
Thus, The firm's total cost (TC) to produce 5,000 widgets is $12,000.
The market price of a security is $26. Its expected rate of return is 13%. The risk-free rate is 5% and the market risk premium is 7.0%. What will be the market price of the security if its correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)? Assume that the stock is expected to pay a constant dividend in perpetuity. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Final answer:
The new market price of the security after the correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles cannot be accurately determined based on the information provided. One would need to know the security's beta or dividend growth rate, which is not mentioned in the question.
Explanation:
The market price of a security is influenced by its expected rate of return and its correlation with the market portfolio. If the correlation coefficient of the security with the market portfolio doubles, it implies a higher risk associated with the security. Using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), we can understand that as risk (beta) increases, so does the required rate of return. However, without a formula directly correlating market price and beta in the given scenario, we cannot precisely calculate the new market price without additional information on the security's beta or its cash flows such as dividends.
It is also important to note that when the security promises a constant dividend in perpetuity, the price can be figured out using the Gordon Growth Model (assuming constant growth rate for dividends), but this requires the growth rate, which hasn't been provided in the question. Therefore, based on the given information, we cannot accurately determine what the new market price of the security would be if its correlation coefficient with the market were to double.

Answer:
d. A code of ethics states the principles and core values that are essential to a set of people and that govern their behavior.
Explanation:
A code of ethics is the document that includes the values and principles that are important for a company, its employees and any situation that may take place in their environment. It does not include rules or behavior statements, it just give the principles that will lead the decisions and actions that the workers or the company do.
The code of ethics is the document that precede the code of conduct. In the code of conduct you can find the specific rules and procedures that apply to a company, a member or a group.
Assume that Sandhill Co. uses a periodic inventory system and has these account balances: Purchases $420,800; Purchase Returns and Allowances $11,900; Purchase Discounts $8,100; and Freight-in $17,700. Sandhill Co. has beginning inventory of $58,100, ending inventory of $92,600, and net sales of $643,000. Determine the amounts to be reported for cost of goods sold and gross profit.
Answer:
Cost of goods Sold = $384,000
Gross Profit = $259,000
Explanation:
Cost of goods sold = Opening Inventory + Net Purchase - Closing Inventory
Opening Inventory = $58,100 Closing Inventory = $92,600
Net Purchases = Purchase - Purchase Return - Discounts + Freight in
Freight in forms part of cost of purchase because without this expense inventory cannot be bought in.
Net Purchases = $420,800 - $11,900 - $8,100 + $17,700 = $418,500
Cost of goods Sold = $58,100 + $418,500 - $92,600 = $384,000
Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold
= $643,000 - $384,000 = $259,000.

Machinery depreciation, straight-line—$40,000 Required: 1. Classify each cost and its amount as (a) either variable or fixed and (b) either product or period. (The first cost is completed as an example.)
Answer:
1. Classifying each cost as Variable or Fixed
When total cost changes with change in output then it is variable in nature and when it remains constant then it is fixed cost.
Plastic for casing = (a) Variable cost (b) Product as will depend on number of casing. = $21,000 / 1000 units = $21 per casing if casing is per unit done individually.Wages of assembly workers = (a) Variable Costs (b) Period it will depend on number of hours worked, in piece rate system it will depend on number of units, but generally it is based on number of hours so it is period.Property taxes on factory = (a) Fixed Costs (b) Period as this does not depend on number of units produced it is fixed in nature, with time duration.Accounting staff salaries = (a) Fixed Costs (b) Period as this is not related to number of units produced and will be fixed for a month.Drum Stands = (a) Variable cost (b)Product as will be required for each drum individually manufactured.Rent cost of equipment for sales staff = (a) Fixed Cost (b) Period as rented is fixed for a specified period generally paid monthly and is not based on number of units produced.Upper management salaries = (a) Fixed Cost (b) Period as this is fixed annually and not based on number of units produced.Annual flat fee for factory maintenance service = (a) Fixed Cost (b) Period as this is fixed annually and has no relation with number of units produced.Sales commissions = (a) Variable Costs (b) Product as this is based on number of units sold and defined per unit.Machinery depreciation, straight-line = (a) Fixed Cost (b) Period as this is not based on number of units produced and is fixed annually.Caspion Corporation makes and sells a product called a Miniwarp. One Miniwarp requires 10.5 kilograms of the raw material Jurislon. Budgeted production of Miniwarps for the next five months is as follows: August 23,400 units September 22,100 units October 23,500 units November 24,700 units December 24,400 units The company wants to maintain monthly ending inventories of Jurislon equal to 20% of the following month's production needs. On July 31, this requirement was not met since only 11,600 kilograms of Jurislon were on hand. The cost of Jurislon is $26 per kilogram. The company wants to prepare a Direct Materials Purchase Budget for the next five months. The total cost of Jurislon to be purchased in August is:
Answer:
The total cost of Jurislon to be purchased in August is: $7,293,260
Explanation:
We will calculate the kilograms needed to fulfil the sales and the desired ending inventory.
Then we will subtract the beginning balance, to know how many kilograms do we need to purchase for the requirement.
Last we multiply by the unit cost to get the cost in dollars
August 23,400 units x 10.5 = 245,700
ending 20% september
20% x 22,100 x 10.5 = 46,410
Total requirement 292,110
beginning (11,600)
total purchase in kilograms 280,510
280,510 x $26 = $7,293,260 total cost for August

A company sold merchandise for $24,000 on account with terms of 5/15, n/30. The company uses a perpetual inventory system. After two days, it received defective merchandise worth $4,000. The journal entry to record the cash receipt for the sale if the payment is received within 10 days of the invoice date would include ________. A) a debit to Cash for $20,000, a credit to Merchandise Inventory for $1,000, and a credit to Sales Revenue for $19,000. B) a debit to Cash for $19,000, a debit to Sales Discount for $1,000, and a credit to Accounts Receivable for $20,000 C) a debit to Cash for $20,000, a debit to Merchandise Inventory for $4,000, and a credit to Accounts Receivable for $24,000. D) a debit to Sales Revenue for $24,000, a credit to Accounts Receivable for $20,000, and a credit to Sales Discounts for $4,000
Answer:
OPTION B
Cash debit for 19,000
Sales Discount debit for 1,000
Account receivable credit for 20,000
Explanation:
First, notice that this entry to record the payment of the invoice, so we are settlng this customer account, we are not recording the sale, that was done 10 days ago.
Same applies to the merchandise return, that was 2 days ago so we don't have to record that, only the cash payment from the customer.
The company sold merchandise for 24,000
Then the customer return 4,000
so the total value of the account at payment date is 20,000
Because it is done within 10 days it will give a 5% discount because the term are 5/15 (5% discount within the first 15 days) n/30 (nominal AKA no discount within 30 days)
So 20,000 sale x 5% discount = $1,000 discount
lastly, nominal - discount = cash outflow
$20,000 - $1,000 = $19,000
Resuming:
Cash debit for 19,000 (cash receive fro mthe customer)
Sales Discount debit for 1,000 (discount according to the sales term)
Account receivable credit for 20,000 (write-off the account)
The journal entry to record the cash receipt for the sale if the payment is received within 10 days of the invoice date would include a debit to Cash for $19,000, a debit to Sales Discount for $1,000, and a credit to Accounts Receivable for $20,000. Thus, option B is correct.
What is Journal entry?A Journal entry can be defined as an accounting record in which the transaction is being made. Every commerce has two reactions and all these are being accounted for with the help of a journal entry.
The information provided is:
The business received $24,000 for the goods it sold.
The customer then returns 4,000.
The user's account total worth at the time of payment was $20,000.
Since the term is 5/15, n/30, it will grant a 5% reduction because it is completed within 10 days
20,000 sales x 5% off is $1,000 off.
Last but not least, nominal - discount = cash outflow
$20,000 - $1,000 = $19,000
The calculation willl be:
19,000 in cash is deducted (cash receive from the customer)
For 1,000, the sales discount is debited (discount according to the sales term)
20 000 in credit for accounts receivable (write-off the account)
Therefore, option B is the correct option.

Banyan Co.’s common stock currently sells for $53.25 per share. The growth rate is a constant 8%, and the company has an expected dividend yield of 2%. The expected long-run dividend payout ratio is 20%, and the expected return on equity (ROE) is 10.0%. New stock can be sold to the public at the current price, but a flotation cost of 15% would be incurred. What would be the cost of new equity? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:Cost of New Equity ([tex]K_{e}[/tex]) = 20.75%
Explanation:
Banyan Company’s common stock currently sells([tex]P_{0}[/tex]) = $53.25
Growth rate is constant (g) = 8%
Expected dividend yield = 2%
Expected long-run dividend payout ratio = 20%
Expected return on equity (ROE) = 10%
Flotation cost(F) = 15%
We know that ;
Growth rate = (1-Dividend payout ratio) (ROE)
8% = (1-0.20)[tex]\times[/tex](0.10)
Cost of new equity (ke) = [tex][\frac{D_{1} }{P_{0}\times (1 - F) }] + g[/tex]
where;
F = Flotation cost
([tex]D_{1}[/tex]) = Expected Dividend
([tex]P_{0}[/tex]) = Current Stock price
g = Dividend growth rate
Calculating expected dividend:
Dividend yield = [tex][\frac{D_{1} }{P_{0}}[/tex]
15% = [tex][\frac{D_{1} }{53.25}[/tex]
[tex]D_{1}[/tex] = 15%[tex]\times[/tex] 53.25
Expected Dividend ([tex]D_{1}[/tex]) = $7.9875
Cost of New Equity ([tex]K_{e}[/tex]) = [tex][\frac{7.9875}{53.25\times (1 - 0.15) }] + 0.08[/tex]
= [tex][\frac{7.9875}{62.64}] + 0.08[/tex]
= 0.207 (or) 20.75%
Cost of New Equity ([tex]K_{e}[/tex]) = 20.75%

Varghese is a high level administrator at an organization. Consistently, he calls employees into his office to point out their mistakes and to inform them of flaws within their performance; however, he never praises his employees nor informs them of positive feedback. Varghese most likely has which of the Dark Triad?
Answer: Varghese most likely has Machiavellianism.
Explanation:
All three dark triad traits are conceptually distinct although empirical evidence shows them to be overlapping. They are associated with a callous-manipulative interpersonal style.
Narcissism is characterized by grandiosity, pride, egotism, and a lack of empathy.
Machiavellianism is characterized by manipulation and exploitation of others, an absence of morality, and a higher level of self interest.
Psychopathy is characterized by continuous antisocial behavior, impulsivity, selfishness, callousness, and remorselessness.
Varghese most actually and generally likely has Machiavellianism.
What does Machiavellianism denotes in the passage?Every one of the three dark triad traits are adroitly particular albeit experimental proof shows them to cover.
They are related with a hard manipulative relational style. Narcissism is portrayed by self importance, pride, pretention, and an absence of compassion. Machiavellianism is portrayed by control and double-dealing of others, a shortfall of profound quality, and a more elevated level of personal circumstance.
People who are estimated to have an elevated degree of Machiavellianism will generally have low suitability and uprightness. Machiavellianism is likewise corresponded with psychopathy. The first distributed variant of the Mach-IV is the most generally involved measure in experimental examination.
Since Machiavellianism is related with flippant inclinations and criticism, connecting a genuine Machiavellian character with "great." Instead, it is ideal to consider when high-Mach traits are valuable and appropriate can be hard.
Therefore in the passage Varghese actually have Machiavellianism.

The value of a business owner's time is an example ofa. an opportunity cost. b. a fixed cost. c. an explicit cost. d. total revenue.
Answer: Opportunity cost
Explanation:
A. Opportunity cost can be defined as the next best alternative foregone , it is the cost of profit the business looses while choosing one alternative over other.
B. Fixed cost are those cost that do not change with the level of output produced in the firm.
C. In simple words the direct costs a business pay to the outsiders for running its operations is called explicit cost.
D. Total revenue is the amount of income a company has before deducting its expenses occurred to earn that income.
So from the above explanations we can conclude that value of a business owner's time is an example of opportunity cost.
Final answer:
The value of a business owner's time is an example of an opportunity cost, representing the potential benefits forgone by not choosing the next best alternative, such as income from another job or personal leisure time.
Explanation:
The value of a business owner's time is an example of an opportunity cost. Opportunity cost is a key concept in economics that involves the notion of implicit costs, which are not directly billed or paid out but represent the potential benefits that are forgone by choosing one alternative over another. In the context of a business owner, this could include the income they could have earned in another occupation, or the value of their leisure time that is lost when they dedicate time to their own business. Implicit costs like these are subtle and include the depreciation of goods, materials, and the owner's time which could have been used for other activities or opportunities.

Nakatomi Corporation produces 10,000 units of Product A at a cost of $20 per unit. A detailed breakup of the cost is below. Choose the correct answer from the options provided. Per Unit Variable costs $ 12 Allocated manufacturing overhead costs 3 Allocated general administrative costs 5 $ 20 Outside supplier's offer $ 17 What are the total relevant cost of producing the units internally? $150,000 $120,000 $200,000 $170,000
Answer:
Correct option is B) $120,000
Explanation:
Relevant cost are the cost which will not be incurred in case the product is not manufactured, that includes the direct manufacturing or variable cost only. The other allocated costs will still be incurred even in case no manufacturing is done of Product A but might not be allocated to Product A.
Here, direct variable cost = $12
Total relevant cost per unit = $12
Total Relevant cost = $12 X 10,000 units = $120,000
Correct option is B) $120,000
The total relevant cost of producing 10,000 units of Product A internally by Nakatomi Corporation is $150,000.
Explanation:The total relevant cost of producing Product A internally by Nakatomi Corporation is the sum of the variable costs and the allocated manufacturing overhead costs, ignoring the allocated general administrative costs as they are not relevant in this scenario. The variable costs per unit are $12 and the manufacturing overhead costs are $3 per unit. Thus, the total relevant costs per unit is $12 + $3 = $15. Since Nakatomi Corporation is producing 10,000 units, the total relevant cost of producing the units internally is $15 * 10,000 = $150,000.

The following information applies to Jasmine, who is single, for 2017:Salary $56,000Interest income from First Bank of Lexington 1,500Dividends from Watters Company stock 3,000Contribution to a traditional IRA 4,000Loan repayment from her friend 1,000Capital loss from sale of personal vehicle (2,300)Number of potential dependents ?Age 44Jasmine maintains a household for her sister, who has $9,000 from Social Security. In addition, Jasmine's aunt lives with her and has income of $3,000.The personal exemption amount for 2017 is $4,050.Calculate Jasmine's Taxable Income for 2017.
Answer:
Jasmine's taxable income for the year 2017 is $ 42,050
Explanation:
we are going to do a step wise calculation for taking out the taxable income of Jasmine,
the first step is to take out the gross income of Jasmine,
GROSS INCOME =
Salary + interest income from first bank of Lexington + Dividend income
= $56,000 + $1500 + $ 3000
= $60,500
Next step is to take out adjusted gross income by subtracting contribution to IRA from gross income,
ADJUSTED INCOME =
gross income - contribution to IRA
= $60,500 - $4000
= $56,500
Next step would be to subtract standard deduction ($6350 as of 2017) and personal exemption ( $8100 - $4050 x 2, multiplied by 2 because Jasmine's aunt live with her) from adjusted gross income,
TAXABLE INCOME =
=$56,500 - $ 6350 - $8100
= $ 42,050

In the long run, both monopolistic competition and competitive markets result in: a) a wide variety of brand-name choices for consumers. b) an inefficient allocation of resources. c) zero economic profit for firms. d) excess capacity. e)insufficient capacity.
Answer:
c) zero economic profit for firms.
Explanation:
In both cases, while there is room for economic gain, market structures - perfect competition and monopolistic competition - will attract entrants to compete. In the long run, the market goes into balance when economic profit is zero.
Recalling that the concept of economic profit is different from accounting profit.
Suppose you take out a home mortgage for $180.000 at a monthly interest rate of 0.4%. If you make payments of $1000/month, after how many months will the loan balance be zero? Estimate the answer by graphing the sequence of loan balances and then obtain an exact answer.
Answer:
time = 318.77
It will be after 318 months
Explanation:
We are asked to find the time of an annuity of 1,000 monthly payment
which present value is 180,000
[tex]C * \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
C = 1000
rate = 0.004
time ??
PV = 180,000
[tex]1,000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.004)^{-time} }{0.004} = 180,000\\[/tex]
We clear out the dividend:
[tex]1-(1+0.004)^{-time} = \frac{180,000\times 0.004}{1,000}\\[/tex]
Then we clear the power up, notice it is negative, so we have to multiply by (-1)
[tex](-1) \times (-(1+0.004)^{-time}) = (-1) \times (0.72 - 1)}\\[/tex]
[tex]1.004^{-time} = 0.28[/tex]
We now use logarithmics to solve for time
[tex]log_{1.004}0.28 = \frac{log0.28}{log1.004} = -318.87 =-time[/tex]
time = 319
Paolucci Corporation's relevant range of activity is 6,900 units to 14,500 units. When it produces and sells 10,700 units, its average costs per unit are as follows: Average Cost per Unit Direct materials $ 6.85 Direct labor $ 3.75 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.75 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 3.30 Fixed selling expense $ 1.05 Fixed administrative expense $ 0.75 Sales commissions $ 1.00 Variable administrative expense $ 0.65 If 9,700 units are sold, the variable cost per unit sold is closest to:
Answer:
Total Variable Cost per Unit $14
Explanation:
We re asked for the variable cost per unit which are constant at unit level.
The fixed cost are not relevant.
So we just need to add the current variable cost.
Direct materials $ 6.85
Direct labor $ 3.75
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.75
Sales commissions $ 1.00
Variable administrative expense $ 0.65
Total Variable $14
The variable cost per unit for the Paolucci Corporation remains the same within the relevant range of activity. The costs per unit of direct materials, labor, variable manufacturing overhead, and variable administrative expense add up to $12.95, which applies to both 10,700 and 9,700 units sold.
Explanation:To calculate the variable cost per unit sold, we need to consider the costs that vary with production. The average costs given for 10,700 units include direct materials, direct labor, variable manufacturing overhead, and variable administrative expense. These four costs are summed up to find the total variable cost per unit. To find the variable cost per unit for 9,700 units sold, we will use the same costs per unit since variable costs per unit remain constant within the relevant range of activity.
Total Variable Cost per Unit = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Variable administrative expense
Total Variable Cost per Unit for 10,700 units = $6.85 + $3.75 + $1.75 + $0.65 = $12.95 per unit
Since we are within the relevant range (6,900 to 14,500 units), the variable cost per unit will not change based on the activity level. Thus, the variable cost per unit sold for 9,700 units will also be $12.95 per unit.
The only difference between variable and absorption costing is the expensing of ________.A) direct manufacturing costs B) variable marketing costs C) fixed manufacturing costs D) variable administrative costs
Answer:
The correct answer is C. fixed manufacturing costs
Explanation:
We can see that in Absorption costing, all the costs are included and that includes fixed costs. on the other hand, in the variable costing, it is only included the variable costs that are directly incurred in production.
Night Flights is preparing a contribution margin report segmented by route. The following information is available: Miami/LA Atlanta/ New York New York/ Chicago Average ticket price per passenger $1,250 $900 $750 Total passengers served 5,400 8,800 12,200 Total miles flown 190,000 176,000 97,600 The variable costs per unit are as follows: Fuel $25 per mile Wages $45 per mile Food/beverage service $7 per passenger Selling $70 per passenger What is the contribution margin ratio for the New York/Chicago route (to the closest tenth of a percent)?
The contribution margin ratio for the New York/Chicago route is approximately -138.8%.
Explanation:The contribution margin ratio for the New York/Chicago route can be calculated using the following steps:
Calculate the total revenue generated from the route by multiplying the average ticket price per passenger by the total number of passengers served.Calculate the total variable costs for the route by multiplying the variable costs per unit (fuel, wages, food/beverage service, and selling) by the total miles flown.Subtract the total variable costs from the total revenue to get the contribution margin for the route.Finally, divide the contribution margin by the total revenue and multiply by 100 to get the contribution margin ratio.Applying these steps to the New York/Chicago route:
Total revenue = $750 (average ticket price per passenger) x 12,200 (total passengers served) = $9,150,000Total variable costs = ($25 (fuel per mile) + $45 (wages per mile) + $7 (food/beverage service per passenger) + $70 (selling per passenger)) x 97,600 (total miles flown) = $21,840,000Contribution margin = Total revenue - Total variable costs = $9,150,000 - $21,840,000 = -$12,690,000Contribution margin ratio = (Contribution margin / Total revenue) x 100 = (-$12,690,000 / $9,150,000) x 100 = -138.76%The Oakland Mills Company has disclosed the following financial information in its annual reports for the period ending March 31, 2013: sales of $1,681,000, costs of goods sold of $812,300, depreciation expenses of $175,000, and interest expenses of $89,575. Assume that the firm has a tax rate of 35 percent. What is the company's net income? Set up an income statement to answer the question.
Answer:
NET INCOME $392,681.25
Explanation:
To find net income we need to first calculate the pre-tax income and then calculate the tax and subtract
[tex]pretax \: income = revenue \: - expenses[/tex]
sales 1,681,000
(COGS) (812,300)
GROSS PROFIT 868,700
(Depreciation expense) (175,000)
(Interest expense) (89,575)
pre-tax income 604,125
[tex]pretax \: income \times rate = income \: tax \: expense[/tex]
tax income
604,125* 0.35= (211,443.75)
net income = 392,681.25

Matt's retail store offers all its products at $2 lesser than its competitors throughout the year. The store never runs any promotional campaigns or offers any additional special discounts. Matt's retail store is following a(n) ________.
Answer:
The everyday low pricing policy is the policy that Matt's retail store is following.
Explanation:
Everyday low pricing policy is the kind of a pricing strategy in which any company or firm keeps the prices of its products at low over a long period of time rather than putting any kind of sale or promotional activities. So here the consumers don't have to wait for the sale to start, the prices are already at everyday low. An important assumption to understand here is that in this kind of pricing strategy cost of production is assumed not be changed, that is why a company is able to implement this policy over a long period of time.
So therefore as here Matt's retail store is giving $2 lesser price for its product than its competitors , it means that Matt's retail store has applied everyday low pricing strategy.
Matt's retail store is employing an everyday low pricing strategy, consistent with a horizontal supply curve and the Law of Demand.
This pricing strategy reflects an understanding of the Law of Demand, where lowering prices leads to an increase in the quantity demanded, assuming that demand is elastic. In competitive retail markets, setting a unique, consistent price without fluctuating with sales or promotions allows buyers to purchase as much as they desire at that price, aligning with the concept of a horizontal supply curve.
The actual and planned data for Underwater University for the Fall term were as follows: Actual Planned Enrollment 4,500 4,125 Tuition per credit hour $120 $135 Credit hours 60,450 43,200 Registration, records, and marketing cost per enrolled student $275 $275 Instructional costs per credit hour $64 $60 Depreciation on classrooms and equipment $825,600 $825,600 Registration, records, and marketing costs vary by the number of enrolled students, while instructional costs vary by the number of credit hours. Depreciation is a fixed cost. a. Prepare a variable costing income statement showing the contribution margin and income from operations for the Fall term.
Answer:
Variable Costing Income Statement
Sales Revenue = 60,450 X $120 = $7,254,000
Less: Variable Cost
Reg, records, marketing = $275 X 4,500 = $1,237,500
Instructional cost = $64 X 60,450 = $3,868,800
Contribution Margin = $2,147,700
Less:
Fixed Cost
Depreciation $825,600
Net Operating Income = $$1,322,100
To prepare a variable costing income statement, calculate tuition revenue, variable costs, contribution margin, and subtract fixed costs to find income from operations. For Underwater University, the income from operations for the Fall term would be $1,322,100.
Variable Costing Income Statement
To prepare a variable costing income statement for Underwater University, we need to calculate the total tuition revenue, total variable costs (registration, records, marketing, and instructional costs), and subtract fixed costs to determine the income from operations for the Fall term.
Total Variable Costs = Variable Costs Per Enrolled Student + Instructional Costs = $1,237,500 + $3,868,800 = $5,106,300
Contribution Margin = Tuition Revenue - Total Variable Costs = $7,254,000 - $5,106,300 = $2,147,700
Fixed Costs: Depreciation on Classrooms and Equipment = $825,600
Income from Operations = Contribution Margin - Fixed Costs = $2,147,700 - $825,600 = $1,322,100
This is the income from operations Underwater University would have for the Fall term based on the given actual data and the costing method applied.
Stemway Company requires a new manufacturing facility. It found three locations; all of which would provide the needed capacity, the only difference is the price. Location A may be purchased for $500,000. Location B may be acquired with a down payment of $100,000 and annual payments at the end of each of the next twenty years of $50,000. Location C requires $40,000 payments at the beginning of each of the next twenty-five years. Assuming Stemway borrowing costs are 8% per annum, which option is the least costly to the company?
Answer:
Location C costs least to the company as it only costs $461,160
Explanation:
We will evaluate all the three proposals
Location A Cost = $500,000
Location B
Down payment = $100,000
Annual year end payment = $50,000 for upcoming 20 years
Present value @ 8% = ([tex]{\sum \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^1}}+ \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^2}}+ ........ \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^2^0}}}) \times $50,000[/tex] = 9.818 X $50,000 = $490,900
Net Present Value = $100,000 + $490,900 = $590,900
Location C
Payment of $40,000 at the beginning of each year, which means first payment will not be discounted and remaining 24 payments will be discounted.
Thus Present Value = $40,000 +( [tex]{\sum \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^1}}+ \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^2}}+ ........ \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^2^4}}}) \times $40,000[/tex] = $40,000 + 10.529 X $40,000 = $40,000 + $421,160 = $461,160
Thus Location C costs least to the company as it only costs $461,160
Agee Technology, Inc., issued 9% bonds, dated January 1, with a face amount of $380 million on July 1, 2018, at a price of $370 million. For bonds of similar risk and maturity, the market yield is 10%. Interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Prepare the journal entry to record interest at the effective interest rate at December 31. What would be the amount(s) related to the bonds that Agee would report in its statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2018, if it uses the direct method?
Answer:
Part 1 Journal Entry
Journal Entry to record interest
Interest Expense A/c Dr. $17.1 million
To Interest Payable A/c $17.1 million
(Interest expense of Agee Technology on bonds of face value of $380 million @9% for 6 months.)
Interest Payable A/c Dr. $17.1 million
To Cash a/c $17.1 million
(Interest paid on the bonds for 6 months)
Part 2 Cash Flow
Amount related to bonds to be reported in cash flow statement
Issue of bonds = $370 million. (Financing Activity)
Less: Interest paid on 1 July = $380 million X 9% X 6/12 = $17.1 million
Less: Interest paid on 31 December = $380 million X 9% X 6/12 = $17.1 million
Net cash inflow from financing activities = $335.8
Explanation:
Since bonds are dated 1 January though issued on 1 July interest for 6 months i.e. 1 January to 30 June will be paid.Market rate of yield does not make any impact in calculations.Interest will be calculated on face value of bonds, issue price does not matter.The interest for the period from Jan to June will be paid on issue of bonds, i.e. on 1 July 2018 itself.On 31 December interest will be paid only for 6 months.In cash flow statement under direct method there is a change of pattern in reporting operating activities, there is no change in disclosing financing activities.
To record the interest on Agee Technology, Inc.'s bonds at the effective rate, debit Interest Expense for $18.5 million, credit Discount on Bonds Payable for $1.4 million, and credit Cash for $17.1 million. On the statement of cash flows using the direct method, they would report a $17.1 million cash outflow for interest payment.
Explanation:You are asking about the journal entry for the interest payment of bonds at the effective interest rate and the reporting on the statement of cash flows using the direct method for Agee Technology, Inc. Here is how you would calculate and record these figures:
First, since the bonds were issued at a discount (price less than face value), the effective interest method is used to amortize the discount over the life of the bond. The carrying amount of the bond initially is $370 million, and the semiannual interest payment at the stated rate of 9% on the face amount of $380 million is $17.1 million (0.09 x $380 million x 1/2). The effective semiannual interest expense, however, is calculated on the carrying amount at the market rate, which is 10% or 5% semiannually on $370 million, resulting in $18.5 million (0.05 x $370 million).
To record the interest payment and the amortization of the discount, the entry at December 31, 2018, would be:
In the statement of cash flows using the direct method, Agee would report $17.1 million as an outflow under operating activities for the interest payment. The amortization of the bond discount is a non-cash adjustment and does not appear on the statement of cash flows.
The Muffin House produces and sells a variety of muffins. The selling price per dozen is $15, variable costs are $9 per dozen, and total fixed costs are $4,200. How many dozen muffins must The Muffin House sell to breakeven?
Your question asks how many muffins the Muffin House needs to sell in order to breakeven
Answer: 700 MuffinsIn order to find the answer to your question, we first need to gather important information from the question.
Important Information:
Selling price/ per muffin = $15Variable costs (cost to make)/ per muffin = $9Total fixed cost = $4,200With the information above, we can find the answer to the question.
The Muffin House spends $9 to make a muffin, but sells it for $15. So the Margin is $6 (profit).
We would only make profit from the Margin price, so we need to get the Margin price to $4,200.This means we would need to divide 4200 by 6 to get our answer. Since they want to breakeven with the fixed cost, they need to sell as much muffins for the Margin to add up to $4,200 at the end to breakeven.
[tex]4200 \div 6=700[/tex]
When you're done solving, you should get 700.
This means that The Muffin House must sell 700 muffins in order to break even.
I hope this helps!Best regards,MasterInvestorYou are going to buy a new computer at a downtown store that is a 25-minute drive each way and has the computer for $900. You earn $16 per hour at your job and will have to take time off to go buy the computer. You can expect to spend 40 minutes in the store making your purchase. What is the opportunity cost of buying the computer, measured in dollars? Enter an answer such as 42.00 or 34.50, with two decimal places. Do not enter a dollar sign.
Answer: The opportunity cost of buying computer is $337.5.
Explanation:
The total time taken in travelling to buy a computer at a downtown store:
= 25 minutes for one side × 2
= 50 minutes
Given that,
expect 40 minutes spend in a store for making purchase
So,
total time taken by a individual = time taken in a store + time taken in travelling
= (50 + 40) minutes
= 90 minutes
Also given that,
a individual earns $16 per hour at job
Hence, he earns = [tex]\frac{60}{16}[/tex]
= $3.75 per minute
so,
Total opportunity cost = earning per minute × total time taken
= $3.75 × 90 minutes
= $337.5
