Answer:
$921,700
Explanation:
Sales on account for the year ended December 31, 2019 is the cash collected from customers during the year and the increase in the accounts receivable. This can be calculated as follows:
Sales on account = $874,000 + $47,700 = $921,700
Therefore, sales on account for the year ended December 31, 2019 were $921,700.
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 rate implicit in the lease is unknown. 5.DU Journeys uses straightline depreciation for all similar cars. Instructions (a) Prepare DU Journeys' journal entries for 2016, 2017, and 2018. (b) Assume, instead of a constant rate of increase, the annual lease payments will increase according to the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

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 firm just paid a dividend of $6 per share. Next year the dividend is expected to grow 8 percent, thereafter 10 percent forever. The present share price is $36. Calculate the required rate of return on the firm's equity. Express the response in decimal format
Answer:
26%
Explanation:
MV=Do(1+g)/(Ke-g)
Where MV is market value=$36
Do is current dividend per share=$6
g is growth rate=8%
Ke=?
By putting above values we get;
36=6(1+.08)/(Ke-.08)
36Ke-2.88=6+.48
36Ke=2.88+6+.48
Ke=9.36/36

Which most accurately characterizes the method used to calculate inflation? Bureaucrats evaluate changes in the price of a nation's currency in terms of other prominent world currencies. Economists measure change in the prices of three goods (gasoline, gold, and wheat) thought to be important determinants of the health of the economy. Analysts measure the cost of a bundle of goods representative of overall spending at two points in time and compare the difference in cost. Government workers poll households to find out how much change there is in the prices that they are paying. Researchers observe the interest rate at two points in time and infer the rate of inflation from the difference.
Answer:
Analysts measure the cost of a bundle of goods representative of overall spending at two points in time and compare the difference in cost.
Explanation:
Inflation refers to a situation in which there is a rise in the price level of the goods in an economy at a particular point of time.
For determining inflation, we need to compare the cost of buying certain baskets of goods in the current year and the cost of buying same basket of goods in the previous year. So that we are able to find the exact rise in the price level of the goods.
We need to analyse the cost of the same basket of goods for the two different periods. Hence, we will get the most appropriate values of the inflation.
Final answer:
Inflation is typically measured using the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which compares the cost of a representative bundle of goods and services at different points in time. The CPI is considered the standard measure of inflation, although it is important to acknowledge some of its limitations and biases.
Explanation:
Measuring Inflation
The method that most accurately characterizes the calculation of inflation is where analysts measure the cost of a bundle of goods representative of overall spending at two points in time and compare the difference in cost. This approach is embodied in the calculation of the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is the most commonly cited measure of inflation. The CPI is crafted by statisticians at the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and uses a basket of goods and services that reflects the purchases of an average family. Despite the prominence of the CPI, it's important to consider the distinction between the cost of living and the CPI, as well as addressing biases such as the substitution bias and the quality/new goods bias. Additionally, other measures like the GDP deflator and the Core Inflation Index provide alternative views on price changes in the economy.
Suppose the CPI was 140 last year and is 168 this year. a. What is this year’s rate of inflation? Instructions: Enter your response as a percentage rounded to one decimal place. Use a minus sign if necessary. b. In contrast, suppose that the CPI was 140 last year and is 134 this year. What is this year’s rate of inflation? c. What term do economists use to describe this second outcome?
Answer:
a) Inflation = = 20%
b) Inflation = -4.3
c) Deflation
Explanation:
The rate of change in the consumer price index is used to measure the movement in price level . An increase in the price level is termed inflation and a decrease is termed deflation.
a)
Inflation =( Current CPA/previous CPI) -1 × 100
= (168/140) - 1 × 100
= 20%
b)
Inflation = (134-140)/140 × 1 = -4.3%
c) The second outcome is called deflation
The answer provides calculations for the rates of inflation in two scenarios and explains the term economists use for the second outcome.
a. What is this year’s rate of inflation?
Calculation: Rate of Inflation = ((CPI This Year - CPI Last Year) / CPI Last Year) x 100Rate of Inflation = ((168 - 140) / 140) x 100 = 20%b. What is this year’s rate of inflation?
Calculation: Rate of Inflation = ((CPI This Year - CPI Last Year) / CPI Last Year) x 100Rate of Inflation = ((134 - 140) / 140) x 100 = -4.3%c. What term do economists use to describe this second outcome?
DeflationDuring 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.

Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below:
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)
Prepare the journal entries to record the following transactions for Blossom Company, which has a calendar year end and uses the straight-line method of depreciation. On September 30, 2022, the company sold old equipment for $124,200. The equipment was purchased on January 1, 2020, for $259,200 and was estimated to have a $43,200 salvage value at the end of its 5-year life. Depreciation on the equipment has been recorded through December 31, 2021.
Answer:
Dr. Cash $124,200
Dr. Accumulated Depreciation $118,800
Dr. Loss on Disposal $16,200
Cr. Equipment $259,200
Explanation:
Depreciation is the recording of asset expense due to its use. It is due to use of fair value of the asset after use. The expense value reduces the asset value over useful life period.
As per given data
Cost of Asset = $259,200
Useful life= 5 years
Salvage Value = $43,200
Asset is purchased on January 1, 2020 and on September 30, 2022 depreciation of only 2 years and 9 months has charged.
Depreciation per year = (Cost of Asset - Salvage Value) / Useful life = ($259,200 - $43,200) / 5 = $43,200
Accumulated Depreciation as on September 30, 2022 = ($43,200 x 2) + $43,200 x 9/12 = $118,800
Book value of the asset is the net of accumulated depreciation of the asset. The accumulated depreciation on September 30, 2022, is as follow:
Net Book value of Asset = 259,200 - $118,800 = $140,400

Explanation:
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

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
High Middle Ages agriculture included all of these features EXCEPT Select one: a. increased output by increasing the amount of land used for farming. b. use of slave labor. c. extensive swamp draining and land clearance. d. application of the three-field system. be. improved methods through the use of iron tools.
Answer:
B) use of slave labor.
Explanation:
During the high middle ages most slaves in Europe were due to religious wars. E.g. if Christian crusaders won territory they would take Muslim slaves and when Muslims won territory they would also take Christian slaves.
During the early middle ages slaves were used for agricultural activities but that almost ceased in the high middle ages. The Catholic church promoted the change from being a slave into being a feudal serf. By the late 10th century (end of early middle ages) most slaves were turned into serfs. Even though the life of a serf was very complicated and difficult, it was better than being a slave.
But that didn't apply to religious prisoners until the end of the high middle ages when the Pope prohibited Muslim slaves (but that didn't stop it from happening).
You are considering investing $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of treasury bills that pay 5% and a risky portfolio, P, constructed with 2 risky securities X and Y. The optimal weights of X and Y in P are 60% and 40% respectively. X has an expected rate of return of 14% and Y has an expected rate of return of 12%. To form a complete portfolio with an expected rate of return of 11%, you should invest __________ of your complete portfolio in treasury bills. 19% 26.8% 36% 50%
Answer:
You should invest 26.8% of your complete portfolio in treasury bills to earn an expected rate of return of 11% on a complete portfolio.
Explanation:
To begin with, first we have to calculate the return of P portfolio consisting of X and Y securities.
Expected Return (ER) = (Weight of X*Return of X) + ( Weight of Y*Return of Y)
ER = (0.6*0.14) + (0.4*0.12)
ER = 0.084 + 0.048
ER = 0.132 or 13.2%
Now, we have to compute the weight of treasury bills in complete portfolio:
ER = (Weight of TB*Return of TB) + (Weight of P*Return of P)
ER = (wTB * rTB) + (wP * rP)
ER= (wTB * rTB) + rP * (1-wTB)
0.11 = (wTB * 0.05) + 0.132*(1-wTB)
0.11= 0.05wTB + 0.132 - 0.132wTB
0.11 = -0.082wTB + 0.132
Let's make the Weight of Treasury Bills subject:
0.082wTB = 0.132 - 0.11
0.082wTB = 0.022
wTB = 0.022/0.082
Weight of Treasury Bills = 0.268 or 26.8%

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)

On January 30, the due date of the note, Wright will record the payment with a debit to Interest Expense in the amount of $100.
Explanation:
On November 1, Wright Co. borrowed $20,000 cash from the Third Bank by signing a 90-day, and 6% of interest-bearing note.On December 31, it was recorded an adjusting entry to interest expense of $200.On January 30, which is the due date of the note, Wright will record the payment with a debit to Interest Expense in the amount of $100.Interest expense is an expense which is known as a non-operating expense which is shown on the income statement. It also represents interest payable amount when it is borrowed. For Example, bonds,convertible debt, loans or lines of creditThe main difference between the interest expense and the interest paid is that the discount amount and this difference changes the net amount of bond liability. Interest expense is an amount determined by the interest rate on an account.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.
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.
Suppose India has a per capita GDP that is .074 times the United States GDP. It has a capital-per-person ratio that is .035 times that of the United States. Compared to the United States, the implied value of total factor productivity for India is approximately a. .30. b. .07. c. .12.d. .23.
Final answer:
To find the implied value of total factor productivity for India, we can use the formula: Total factor productivity = Per capita GDP / Capital per person ratio. Given the values provided, the implied value of total factor productivity for India is approximately 2.114.
Explanation:
To find the implied value of total factor productivity for India, we can use the formula:
Total factor productivity = Per capita GDP / Capital per person ratio
Given that India's per capita GDP is 0.074 times the United States GDP and its capital-per-person ratio is 0.035 times that of the United States, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Total factor productivity = 0.074 / 0.035 = 2.114
Therefore, the implied value of total factor productivity for India is approximately 2.114.
The correct answer option is D. Compared to the United States, the implied value of total factor productivity for India is approximately 23.
To find the implied value of total factor productivity (TFP) for India compared to the United States, we can use the Solow-Swan growth model, which relates output (GDP) to capital and labor inputs. The equation for GDP in this model is Y = A * (K^α) * (L^(1-α)), where Y is GDP, A is TFP, K is capital, L is labor, and α is the output elasticity of capital.
Given that India's per capita GDP is 0.074 times that of the United States and its capital-per-person ratio is 0.035 times that of the United States, we can set up the ratio:
India's GDP per capita / US GDP per capita = (India's TFP * India's capital per person ^ α * 1) / (US TFP * US capital per person ^ α * 1)
Substituting the given values and solving for A (TFP) yields approximately 0.23. So, the correct answer is d. .23.
Magic Milling Company has 9% annual coupon bonds that are callable and have 18 years left until maturity. The bonds have a par value of $1,000, and their current market price is $1,100.35. However, Magic Milling may call the bonds in eight years at a call price of $1,060. What are the YTM and the yield to call (YTC) on Magic Milling’s bonds?
Final answer:
The Yield to Maturity (YTM) and Yield to Call (YTC) on Magic Milling's Bonds are approximately 9.66% and 6.08% respectively.
Explanation:
The Yield to Maturity (YTM) and Yield to Call (YTC) on Magic Milling's Bonds
The yield to maturity (YTM) is the total return expected on a bond if it is held until maturity. To calculate the YTM, we need to use the current market price, the coupon rate, and the time left until maturity. In this case, the YTM would be approximately 9.66%.
The yield to call (YTC) is the total return expected on a bond if the bond is called before maturity. To calculate the YTC, we need to use the current market price, the call price, the coupon rate, and the time left until the call date. In this case, the YTC would be approximately 6.08%.

Which of the following is the correct formula for measuring an efficiency variance? A. Efficiency Variance = (Actual Quantity times Standard Quantity) / Standard Cost B. Efficiency Variance = (Actual Quantity / Standard Quantity) times Standard Cost C. Efficiency Variance = (Actual Quantity minus Standard Quantity) times Standard Cost D. Efficiency Variance = (Actual Quantity + Standard Quantity) minus Standard Cost
The correct formula for measuring an efficiency variance is (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) * Standard Cost. It compares the actual quantity of inputs used with the standard quantity and multiplies the difference by the standard cost.
Explanation:The correct formula for measuring an efficiency variance is:
Efficiency Variance = (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) * Standard Cost
The efficiency variance compares the actual quantity of inputs used with the standard quantity of inputs that should have been used, and then multiplies the difference by the standard cost of the inputs.
For example, if the actual quantity of materials used is higher than the standard quantity, the efficiency variance would be negative, indicating that more materials were used than expected.

A business combination is the union of the small business units into one. The new combined unit is known as business combination. This is done for various purposes. A business combination generally increases the efficiency and productivity while reducing the costs.
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.

Which of these is NOT one of the items that can provide useful assistance to a project team to define the activities of a project? a. the major milestones from the Project Charter b. schedules from similar, previous projects c. issue logs d. templates or checklists for projects of the same type
Option C
issue logs is one of the items that can provide useful assistance to a project team to define the activities of a project
Explanation:Activities in a project are the process to recognize and document the exercises that are available to produce the project deliverables. The essential advantage of this method is that it crumbles work units into program activities that present a source for evaluating, cataloging, completing, monitoring, and managing the project work.
The issue log, seldom also identified as an issue register, is a project document where all issues that are negatively altering the project are documented and tracked. This will not be beneficial compensation in defining activities of the project.
The item that does not provide assistance to a project team in defining the activities of a project is the issue logs. While they are important for risk management, they do not directly aid in outlining project tasks or deliverables.
Explanation:When defining the activities of a project, there are certain items that are useful resources specific to project management. These include things like major milestones from the Project Charter, schedules from similar, previous projects, and templates or checklists for projects of the same type. These provide structured, specific frameworks that can guide the project team in planning and executing the project.
However, issue logs do not necessarily provide assistance to a project team when defining activities.
