Investing Activities in the Cash Flow Statement refers to any cash inflows or outflow that is related to investments as well as the fixed assets and securities of other companies and patents.
In the above question the following are considered investment activities,
Sale of investment and Land
Purchase of Equipment and Patents.
Net Cash = ( Cash Inflows) - (Cash Outflows)
Net Cash = ( 40 million (investment sale) + 16 million ( land sale) ) - ( 26 million (equipment purchase) + 13 million (patent purchase) )
Net Cash = 56,000,000 - 39,000,000
Net Cash = $17,000,000
Net cash flows from investing activities is $17,000,000
Mike started a calendar-year business on September 1st of this year by paying 12 months of rent on his shop at $1,450 per month. What is the maximum amount of rent that Mike can deduct this year under each type of accounting method?
Answer:
$4,000 under accural method and $12,000 under cash method.
Explanation:
Monthly rent = $1,000
A) In accural method, Mike can only deduct up to 4 months rent. Revenue is to be recognised on accural basis, not on receipt. ==> 4 x $1,000 ==> $4,000
B) In cash method, Mike can deduct 12 months rent when he applies 12 month concept. ==> 12 x $1,000 ==> $12,000
Answer:
$5,800 under accural method and $17,400 under cash method.
Explanation:
Monthly rent = $1,450
A) In accural method, Mike can only deduct up to 4 months rent. Revenue is to be recognised on accural basis, not on receipt. ==> 4 x $1,450 = $5,800
B) In cash method, Mike can deduct 12 months rent when he applies 12 month concept. ==> 12 x $1,450 ==> $17,800.
Barbara Muller Services (BMS) pays its employees monthly. The payroll information listed below is for January 2018, the first month of BMS's fiscal year. Assume none of the employees' earnings reached $7,000 during the month. Salaries $ 80,000 Federal income taxes to be withheld 16,000 Federal unemployment tax rate 0.80 % State unemployment tax rate (after FUTA deduction) 5.40 % Social security tax rate 6.2 % Medicare tax rate 1.45 % The journal entry to record payroll for the January 2018 pay period will include a debit to payroll tax expense of:
Answer:
$13,296
Explanation:
Federal unemployment tax rate = 0.8% of 96,000 = 768
State unemployement tax rate = 5.4% of 96,000 = 5,184
Social security tax rate+medicare tax rate = 6.2%+1.45% = 7.65%
7.65% of 96,000 = 7,344
So total tax expense = 768+5,184+7,344 = $13,296
So answer is $13,296

Under U.S. GAAP, if the carrying value of a fixed asset was $50,000, the undiscounted expected future cash flows was $55,000, the discounted expected future cash flows was $51,000, and the selling price was $53,000, what is the amount of impairment loss?
Answer:
$0
Explanation:
According to US GAAP the reduction in the value of the asset due to a decrease in the fair value. It means when fair value of the asset is reduced than the book value of the asset.
Amortized Cost / Book value = $50,000
Market Value = $53,000
Discounted Value = $51,000
There is no Impairment loss on this asset as the fair market value is more than the book value of the asset.
Answer:
Nil, asset is not impaired.
Explanation:
An asset is said to be impaired if and only if the carrying amount of the asset is more than the recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount is the higher of the value in use (which is the discounted expected future cash flows) and the fair value less cost to sell.
Recoverable amount = $53,000 (being the higher of the selling price and the discounted expected future cash flow)
Since this is higher than the carrying value of the asset, it is not impaired.

Bond J has a coupon rate of 5 percent and Bond K has a coupon rate of 11 percent. Both bonds have 14 years to maturity, make semiannual payments, and have a YTM of 8 percent. a. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage price change of these bonds?
Final answer:
The question asks for the percentage price change of bonds with coupon rates of 5% and 11% when interest rates rise by 2%. Bond prices fall when interest rates rise, with bonds having lower coupon rates being more affected. Exact calculations require more information and complex financial formulas.
Explanation:
The question asks about the percentage price change of two bonds with different coupon rates when the interest rates rise by 2 percent. Both bonds have the same years to maturity and yield to maturity (YTM), but because Bond J has a lower coupon rate of 5% and Bond K a higher coupon rate of 11%, their sensitivity to interest rate changes will differ.
When interest rates increase, the price of existing bonds typically falls. This is because new bonds are issued at the new higher rates, making the existing bonds with lower rates less attractive. Since Bond J has a lower coupon rate, it is more sensitive to interest rate changes, and its price will decrease more significantly than Bond K's, which has a higher coupon rate.
To determine the exact percentage price change, you would need to perform a bond price calculation using the new yield to maturity, which would be the original YTM plus the 2% increase. However, this requires additional information and more complex financial formulas which go beyond the scope of this explanation.

Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost
Direct materials 4.6 pounds $ 2.50 per pound $ 11.50
Direct labor 0.2 hours $ 12.00 per hour $ 2.40
During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded:
a. Eleven thousand two hundred pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.90 per pound.
b. The company produced only 1,120 units, using 10,080 pounds of material. (The rest of the material purchased remained in raw materials inventory.)
c. Five hundred and forty eight hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $6,576.
Solution:
Direct Material price Variance
= (Actual Price - Standard price) x Actual Quantity
= ($2.90 - $2.50) x 10,080 = $4032 (F)
Standard Quantity = 1,120 x 4.6 = 5,152 pounds
Direct Material Quantity Variance
= (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) x Standard Price
= (10,080 - 5,152 ) x $2.50 = $12,320 (U)

The Guitar Shoppe reports the following sales forecast: August, $110,000; September, $190,000. Total sales includes 30% cash sales, 55% credit sales collected in the month following sale, and 15% credit sales written off as uncollectible. Prepare a schedule of cash receipts for September.
Final answer:
To prepare a schedule of cash receipts for September, calculate the cash received from cash sales, credit sales collected in September, and credit sales written off. Cash receipts: $57,000 (cash sales) + $104,500 (credit sales collected) + $28,500 (written off) = $190,000 (total cash receipts).
Explanation:
To prepare a schedule of cash receipts for September, we need to calculate the cash received from different types of sales. According to the sales forecast, the total sales for September are $190,000. Based on the given information, 30% of the sales are cash sales. Therefore, the cash receipts from cash sales would be 30% of $190,000, which is $57,000.
For the credit sales, we know that 55% of them are collected in the month following the sale. So, the cash receipts from credit sales collected in September would be 55% of $190,000, which is $104,500.
Finally, 15% of the credit sales are written off as uncollectible. Therefore, the cash receipts from credit sales written off would be 15% of $190,000, which is $28,500.
Adding up all the cash receipts, the schedule of cash receipts for September would look like:
Cash sales: $57,000
Credit sales collected in September: $104,500
Credit sales written off: $28,500
Total cash receipts: $190,000
E21A1. (Lessee Entries; Finance Lease with No Residual Value) (LO 1, 4) DU Journeys enters into an agreement with Traveler Inc. to lease a car on December 31, 2016. The following information relates to this agreement. 1.The term of the noncancelable lease is 3 years with no renewal or bargain purchase option. The remaining economic life of the car is 3 years, and it is expected to have no residual value at the end of the lease term. 2.The fair value of the car was $15,000 at commencement of the lease. 3.Annual payments are required to be made on December 31 at the end of each year of the lease, beginning December 31, 2017. The first payment is to be of an amount of $5,552.82, with each payment increasing by a constant rate of 5% from the previous payment (i.e., the second payment will be $5,830.46 and the third and final payment will be $6,121.98). 4.DU Journeys' incremental borrowing rate is 8%.

The journal entries for DU Journeys' lease agreement pertain to recognizing the leased asset and liability, accounting for lease payments, interest expense, and depreciation. If payments were tied to CPI, they would be variable and changes would be accounted for in profit or loss in the period of the change.
Explanation:Based on the details of the problem, it seems we have a matter of accounting for a finance lease agreement with DU Journeys as the lessee. This question falls under the scope of financial accounting, more specially lease accounting. The calculations and entries would change if lease payments were tied to CPI, which would then mean that lease payments are variable and not fixed as in the given scenario.
For the year 2016, the first entry would be to record the right to use the leased car. On December 31, 2016, DU Journeys would debit 'Leased Vehicles' for $15,000 representing the fair value of the vehicle or leased asset, and Credit 'Obligation under Finance Lease' for $15,000. This establishes the initial recognition of the leased asset and the liability. For subsequent years 2017 and 2018, DU Journeys will need to make entries for lease payments, interest expense, and depreciation. However, without a clear understanding of the context and connections to the numbers and tables presented, more specific entries couldn't be made.
If instead, the annual lease payments were tied to CPI, it would be considered a variable lease payment. If lease payments are variable (i.e., tied to an index or rate such as CPI), then changes in lease payments due to changes in the index or rates are accounted for in profit or loss in the period of the change. Thus, the payments would not be included in the initial measurement of the lease liability and right-of-use asset, affecting the numbers DU Journeys would record.

A company has got $500 in cash and cash equivalents, $300 in inventory and $200 in account receivables. The firm has long term assets of $500. The firm has accounts payables of $200. All other current liabilities total $400. The firm had sales of $10000, EBIT of $5000, interest expenses of $2000 and net income of $800.
Compute the following ratios:
Current ratio, Debt Ratio, TIE, profit margin, total asset turnover.
Answer:
The computation is shown below:
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Current ratio = current assets ÷ current liabilities
where,
Current assets = cash + inventory + account receivables
= $500 + $300 + $200
= $1000
Current liabilities is
= $200 + $400
= $600
So, the current ratio is
= $1,000 ÷ 600
= 1.67 times
Debt Ratio is
= Total Liabilities ÷ Total Assets
= $600 ÷ $1,500
= 40%
TIE is Time Interest Earned ratio
= EBIT ÷ Interest Expense
= $5,000 ÷ $2,000
= 2.5
Profit margin is
= Net Income ÷ Total Sales
= $800 ÷$10,000
= 8%
And,
Total asset turnover is
= Sales ÷ Total Assets
= $10,000 ÷ $1,500
= 6.67
The examined financial ratios given the company's specifics are as follows: Current Ratio is 1.67, Debt Ratio is 0.4, TIE is 2.5, Profit Margin is 8%, and Total Asset Turnover is 6.67.
Explanation:Given data allows us to calculate several important financial ratios.
Current Ratio is calculated as Current Assets / Current Liabilities. Here, current assets ($500 cash + $300 inventory + $200 account receivables = $1000) and current liabilities ($200 account payables + $400 other current liabilities = $600). So, Current Ratio = 1000 / 600 = 1.67.Debt Ratio is calculated as Total Debt/Total Assets. Here, Total Assets = Current Assets + Long term assets, which equals to $1000 + $500 = $1500. Total Debt is the same as total liabilities = $600. So, Debt Ratio = 600 / 1500 = 0.4.TIE (Times Interest Earned) ratio is calculated as EBIT / Interest Expenses, which is 5000/2000= 2.5.Profit Margin is calculated as Net Income / Sales, equaling 800 / 10000 = 0.08 or 8%.Total Asset Turnover is calculated as Sales / Total Assets, which comes out as 10000 / 1500 = 6.67.Learn more about Financial Ratios here:https://brainly.com/question/31531442

(Actual) (Budgeted) (Budgeted) (Budgeted)
Cost of goods sold $ 50,000 $ 80,000 $ 100,000 $ 70,000
Desired ending inventory levels are 35% of the following month's projected cost of goods sold. Budgeted purchases of inventory in February Year 2 would be:
Answer:
$89,500
Explanation:
The computation Budgeted purchases of inventory is shown below:-
February,opening inventory = $100,000 × 35%
= $35,000
Ending inventory = $70,000 × 35%
= $24,500
Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + Purchase - Ending inventory
= $100,000 = $35,000 + Purchase - $24,500
Purchase = $89,500
Therefore for computing the purchase inventory we simply applied the above formula.
Suppose a typical automobile tire cost $50 in the base year and had a useful life of 40,000miles. Ten years later, the typical automobile tire cost $75 and had a useful life of 75,000 miles. If no adjustment is made for mileage, the CPI would *
Answer:
Overestimate inflation between the two years.
Explanation:
If there is an increase in the cost of automobile tire and no adjustment is made in the mileage, and then CPI would be overestimated between the two years. This is because as there is no improvement in mileage and hence it is estimated that there is no increase in variable costs in the process of improving the quality.
Therefore, the correct answer is overestimate inflation between the two years.
An audience is first asked to write the last 2 digits of their social security number, and, second, to submit mock bids on items such as wine and chocolate.

Answer: Anchoring bias
Explanation: Anchoring bias is described as the tendency to focus on one value or idea known as the “anchor” and not adjust away from it sufficiently (the simple act of thinking of the first number strongly influences the second, even though there is no logical connection between them); It is also defined as the tendency of people to place subsequently refined answers to a given question close to the initially estimated answer, giving unduly weight to the initial answer, such as adjusting the initial estimate of 10% to 20% when 90% would have been more appropriate.
Some examples of anchors might include: real estate listing prices, initial cost estimates for development projects, salary of your last job etc.

Consolidated financial statements are those statements in which the financial statements of both the parent and all its subsidiaries are shown as a single entity.
Translated adjustments are those adjustments which are made in the income statement to incorporate the fluctuations in the exchange rates.
Step 2 of 4
The exchange rate is the exchange of the currencies of the two countries. There is a certain fee while changing the currency between two countries.
Translated adjustments are made because of the fluctuations in the different currencies. This generally affects all the aspects in the income statement and the balance sheet like assets, liabilities and equity. If the adjustment is positive then it means that the company is gaining from the currency fluctuations and vice versa.
Step 3 of 4
Since the functional currency is the foreign currency, hence the translation will be done at the current rate method. Hence, all the assets will be translated at the current rate. The current rate in this case is $0.19.

Raw Materials $ 54,600 Work in Process 83,400 Finished Goods 27,400 During the accounting period, Adams purchased $239,200 of raw materials and issued $248,600 of materials to the production department. Direct labor costs for the period amounted to $323,000, and manufacturing overhead of $46,300 was applied to Work in Process Inventory. Assume that there was no over- or underapplied overhead. Goods costing $611,700 to produce were completed and transferred to Finished Goods Inventory. Goods costing $601,100 were sold for $800,600 during the period. Selling and administrative expenses amounted to $70,200. Required Determine the ending balance of each of the three inventory accounts that would appear on the year-end balance sheet. Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured and sold and an income statement.
Answer:
Adams Corporation
a) Ending Balances of:
i) Raw Materials:
a) Opening balance = $54,600
b) Purchases = $239,200
Cost of Available Raw Materials = $293,800 (a+b)
less c) Cost of Raw Materials Issued = $248,600
Closing Raw Materials = $45,200
ii) Work in Process (WIP):
a) Opening WIP = $83,400
b) Materials Issued = $248,600
c) Labour applied = $323,000
d) Overhead applied = $46,300
Total cost of WIP available for production = $701,300 (a+b+c+d)
less Cost of Finished Goods = $611,700
Closing WIP = $89,600
iii) Finished Goods:
a) Opening Finished Goods = $27,400
b) Cost of Finished Goods = $611,700
c) Finished Goods available for sale = $639,100 (a+b)
d) less Cost of Goods Sold = $601,100
e) Closing Finished Goods = $38,000
B-1) A schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured
Opening Inventory of Materials = $54,600
Opening WIP = $83,400
Purchases of Materials = $239,200
Labour = $323,000
Overhead = $46,300
Total Cost = $746,500
Less Closing Inventory of Materials = $45,200
Less Closing WIP = $89,600
Total Cost of Finished Goods = $611,700
B-2) Schedule of Cost of Goods Sold:
a) Opening Finished Goods = $27,400
b) Cost Finished Goods = $611,700
c) Cost of Goods Available for sale = $639,100 (a+b)
d) less Closing Finished Goods = $38,000
e) Cost of Goods Sold = $601,100 (c - d)
B-3) Income Statement
Sales = $800,600
less cost of sales = $601,100
Gross Profit = $199,500
less Selling and Administrative Expenses = $70,200
Net Income before Interests and Taxes = $129,300
Explanation:
a) Closing Inventory of Raw Materials, WIP, and Finished Goods can be obtained by adding opening inventory to purhcases, transferred to production, or finished goods to obtain the costs of raw materials available for production, cost of materials in WIP, and cost of finished goods available for sale respectively.
b) With the costs of materials in WIP, labour and overhead costs are applied to obtain the costs of production.
c) When the closing WIP is subtracted from (b) above, we have the cost of finished goods for the period.
d) The difference between Sales and Cost of Sales is the Gross Profit.
e) The Selling and Administrative expenses are then deducted from the gross profit to get the net income or profit before interests and taxes.
Define project cost terms and tell how each is used in estimating project cost. Compare and contrast analogous, parametric, and bottom-up methods of estimating costs. Describe issues in project cost estimating and how to deal with each.
Answer:
The project cost is a cost required to procure all the needed products, services and resources to deliver the project successfully.
Explanation:
Analogous estimation: involves comparing a past similar project to your current project and the use of analogy to estimate cost.
Parametric Estimation: This estimation uses the historical data based on the real data and saves lots of time to calculate the cost estimation.
Bottom-up approach: also called definitive technique breaks up all activities of the project to the micro level in order to conduct comprehensive cost estimation.
The issues in project cost estimation include cost overruns, inefficiencies and project surprise. To effectively mitigated them, Bottom-up approach should be applied. It is an expensive but very reliable method.
You are a consultant to a large manufacturing corporation considering a project with the following net after-tax cash flows (in millions of dollars): Years from Now After-Tax CF 0 –30 1–9 15 10 30 The project's beta is 1.9. Assuming rf = 4% and E(rM) = 14% a. What is the net
To calculate the net present value (NPV) of the project with given after-tax cash flows and beta
Explanation:The net after-tax cash flows for the project are as follows:
Year 0: -30 million dollarsYear 1-9: 15 million dollarsYear 10: 30 million dollarsTo calculate the net present value (NPV) of the project, we need to discount these cash flows by the project's required rate of return, which can be calculated using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula:
r = rf + beta * (E(rM) - rf)
Given rf = 4%, beta = 1.9, and E(rM) = 14%, we can calculate the required rate of return (r) and then apply it to the cash flows to determine the NPV.

Which of the following are reported at fair value except trading securities: a) held-to-maturity securities b) available-for-sale securities c) all of these options are reported at fair value.
Answer:
B. Available for sale securities
Explanation:
Available for sale securities refer to debt or equity instrument. They are purchased with a pre defined aim of selling them before their maturity, for profit earning. Such profit is usually a 'quick capital gain'. Apart from profit, they also assist for liquidity, repaying needs of companies.
These equities are reported at 'fair value'. This implies that unrealised gains & losses are not included in earnings. They are rather recorded in a specific segregated item head 'accumulated other comprehensive income' of shareholder's equity.
Preparing an Accounts Payable Schedule Pilsner Inc. purchases raw materials on account for use in production. The direct materials purchases budget shows the following expected purchases on account: April $374,400 May 411,200 June 416,000 Pilsner typically pays 25% on account in the month of billing and 75% the next month.Required: 1. How much cash is required for payments on account in May?
2. How much cash is expected for payments on account in June?
Answer:
1. $383 300 is due for the month of May.
2. $412 400 is due for the month of June
Explanation:
1. May = ($374000 * 75% from April purchases) + ($411 200 * 25% from May purchases)
= $280 500 + $102 800
= $383 300 is due for the month of May
2. June = ($411 200 * 75% from May purchases) + ($416 000 * 25% from June purchases)
= $308 400 + $104 000
= $412 400 is due for the month of June
Answer:
1. Cash required for payment in May - $383,600
2. Cash expected for payment in June - $412,400
Explanation:
Payments are made in two parts for the purchase of direct materials. From which 25% is being paid in the same month as bill and remainder (75%) in the next month. Therefore, the cash required for May would be calculated as follows:
$411,200 x 25% = $102,800 (Payment made same month)
$374,400 x 75% = $280,800 (Payment for the previous month, April)
Cash Required for payment in May is $383,600 ($102,800 + $280,800)
Cash expected for payments for June would be as follows:
$416,000 x 25% = $104,000 (Payment made same month)
$411,200 x 75% = $308,400 (Payment for the previous month, May)
Cash Expected for payment in June is $412,400 ($104,000 + $308,400)
Monica, a sales consultant, will receive a performance appraisal soon. Monica's supervisor will be assessing Monica's ability to deliver products to clients according to schedule and her ability to meet customer quality requirements. Which performance standard is most likely important to Monica's employer? goal achievement strategic contribution improvement potential employee traits
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": goal achievement.
Explanation:
Performance appraisals are evaluations employers conduct based on a standard established by their companies where workers' performance is tested. It is useful to determine if the employees are fulfilling the expectations of the firm and if they are actually accomplishing the goals of why employees were hired for.
If a performance appraisal is focused on meeting customers' demands and delivering clients' products on time, the evaluation is likely to be focused on goal achievement or the ability to reach achievements in time and form based on what consumers may ask for.
A firm experiences constant returns to scale when _______. A. the LRAC curve is upward sloping B. average total cost does not change when output changes C. the plant the firm uses and the quantity of labor the firm hires remain constant D. the LRAC curve is downward sloping
Answer:
B. average total cost does not change when output changes
Explanation:
A firm can experience increasing or decreasing return to scale and constant return to scale, it depends on various factors from the average total cost to output changes. If a firm experiences constant return to scale it means that the average total cost does not change when output changes. If the average total cost increases that mean increasing return to scale and if it decreases than decreasing return to scale
Chamonix Chateau Rentals. You are planning a ski vacation to Mt. Blanc in Chamonix, France, one year from now. You are negotiating the rental of a chateau. The chateau's owner wishes to preserve his real income against both inflation and exchange rate changes, and so the present weekly rent of 9,800 (Christmas season) will be adjusted upward or downward for any change in the French cost of living between now and then. You are basing your budgeting on purchasing power parity (PPP). French inflation is expected to average 3.5% for the coming year, while US. dollar inflation is expected to be-2596.The current spot rate is $1.3620 What should you budget as the U.S. dollar cost of the 1-week rental?
a. Spot exchange rate (S/) $1.3620
b. Expected US inflation for coming year | 2.500%
c. Expected French inflation for coming year | 3.500%
d. Current chateau nominal weekly rent (E) 9,800.00
Answer:
The budgeted $ amount is $13,680.88
Explanation:
The purchasing power parity formula gives us an idea what an exchange spot rate would be in future period using the below formula:
Future spot rate=current spot rate*(1+US inflation)/(1+French inflation)
current spot rate=$1.3620
US inflation rate is 2.50%
French inflation is 3.50%
Future spot rate=$1.3620*(1+2.5%)/(1+3.5%)
future spot rate=$1.3488
The weekly cost of vacation would also be adjusted for inflation rate in France as follows:
Adjusted price=9800*(1+3.5%)=10143
Hence the cost of the one week rental would be 10143 multiplied by the future spot exchange rate of 1.3488 i.e $ 13,680.88 (10143*1.3488)
Retirement savings
A couple thinking about retirement decides to put aside $3,000 each year in a savings plan that earns 8% interest. In 5 years, they will receive a gift of $10,000 that also can be invested.
a. How much money will they have accumulated 30 years from now?
b. If the goal is to retire with $800,000 savings, how much extra do they need to save every year?
Answer:
a. $408,334.39
b. $3,457.40
Explanation:
r = rate per period = 8% = 0.08
P = Initial Value of Gift = $10,000
t = time = 30 - 5 = 25, As received after 5 years.
[tex]A = P (1 + r)^{t}[/tex]
[tex]A = $10,000 (1 + 0.08)^{25}[/tex]
[tex]A = $10,000 x 1.08^{25}[/tex]
A = $10,000 x 6.8485
A = $68,484.75
[tex]FV of annuity = P [\frac{(1 + r)^{n} - 1}{r} ][/tex]
P = Periodic Payment = $3,000
a.
n = number of periods = 30
[tex]FV of annuity = 3,000 [\frac{(1 + 0.08)^{30} - 1}{0.08} ][/tex]
[tex]FV of annuity = 3,000 [\frac{(1.08)^{30} - 1}{0.08} ][/tex]
[tex]FV of annuity = 3,000 [\frac{10.0627 - 1} {0.08} ][/tex]
[tex]FV of annuity = 3,000 [\frac{9.0627} {0.08} ][/tex]
FV of annuity = $3,000 x 113.2832
FV of annuity = $339,849.63
Accumulated value of money can be calculated as follows;
$68,484.75 + $339,849.63
$408,334.39
b.
If they wish to retire with $800,000 savings, they need to save additional amount of money every year to provide additional amount of money, as follows;
$800,000 - $68,484.75
$731,515.24
The extra annual savings can be calculated as follows;
[tex]731,515.24 = P [\frac{(1 + 0.08)^{30} - 1 }{0.08} ][/tex]
$731,515.24 = P x 113.28
Divide the above equation by 113.28 we get;
[tex]P = \frac{731,515.24}{113.28}[/tex]
P = $6,457.40
They are already paying $3,000, So the extra saving they need make every year is calculated as follows;
$6,457.40 - $3,000
$3,457.40
Franklin Manufacturing provided the following information for the month ended Marchâ 31:
Sales Revenue $ 19,000
Beginning Finished Goods Inventory 15,000
Ending Finished Goods Inventory 12,500
Cost of Goods Manufactured 18,600
Required:
a. Compute cost of goods sold.
Answer:
a. Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) amounts to $21,100
Explanation:
a.
Computing the Cost of Goods Available for Sale as:
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = Beginning Finished Goods Inventory + Cost of Goods Manufactured
where
Cost of Goods Manufactured is $18,600
Beginning Finished Goods Inventory is $15,000
So, putting the values above:
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = $18,600 + $15,000
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = $33,600
Computing the COGS (Cost of Goods Sold) as:
Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) = Cost of Goods Available for Sale - Ending Finished goods Inventory
where
Cost of Goods Available for Sale is $33,600
Ending Finished goods Inventory is $12,500
So, putting the values above:
Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) = $33,600 - $12,500
Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) = $21,100
