Answer:
Net book value (NBV) at the end of Year 2, under:
straight-line method is $67,250units-of-production method is $21,800double-declining balance is $32,000If there is need for NBV for Year 1, simply subtract the depreciation for Year from the cost.
Explanation:
Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / Estimated useful life = ($128,000 - $6,500) / 4 years = $30,375 yearly depreciation expense.
Accumulated depreciation for 2 years is $30,375 x 2 years $60,750.
The net book value of the asset (cost - accumulated depreciation) is: $128,000 - $60,750 = $67,250.
The unit-of-production method is used when the asset value closely relates to the units of output it is able to produce. It is expressed with the formula below:
(Original Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated production capacity x Units/year
At Year 1, depreciation expense (DE) is: ($128,000 - $6,500) / 135,000 units x 58,000 units = $52,200/year
At Year 2, depreciation = ($128,000 - $6,500) / 135,000 units x 60,000 units = $54,000/year
Accumulated depreciation for 2 years is $52,200 + $54,000 = $106,200.
Note that this depreciation method results in higher depreciation charge when the asset is heavily used, at this time, it was in year 2.
The NBV under this method is is: $128,000 - $106,200 = $21,800.
The double-declining method is otherwise known as the reducing balance method and is given by the formula below:
Double declining method = 2 X SLDP X BV
SLDP = straight-line depreciation percentage
BV = Book value
SLDP is 100%/4 years = 25%, then 25% multiplied by 2 to give 50%
At Year 1, 50% X $128,000 = $64,000
At Year 2, 50% X $64,000 ($128,000 - $64,000) = $32,000
Accumulated depreciation for 2 years is $64,000 + $32,000 = $96,000.
The NBV under this method is is: $128,000 - $96,000 = $32,000.
The Schrade Company must calculate depreciation using straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance methods. The straight-line method results in a $67,250 net book value at the end of year 2, while units-of-production show $21,800, and the double-declining balance shows a $32,000 net book value.
Explanation:The Schrade Company needs to calculate depreciation using three different methods: straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance. The cost of the machine is $128,000 with a residual value of $6,500 and an estimated useful life of four years or 135,000 units. Here's how the calculations are done for each:
Straight-line depreciation: This method spreads the cost evenly over the useful life of the asset. Annual straight-line depreciation is calculated as (Cost - Residual value) / Useful life in years. In this case, ($128,000 - $6,500) / 4 = $30,375 per year. After two years, the accumulated depreciation is $30,375 * 2 = $60,750 and the net book value at the end of year 2 is $128,000 - $60,750 = $67,250.Units-of-production depreciation: This method allocates the cost based on the actual use of the machine. The depreciation per unit is (Cost - Residual value) / Total estimated units. It equals ($128,000 - $6,500) / 135,000 = $0.9 per unit. For year 2, with 60,000 units produced, the depreciation expense is 60,000 * $0.9 = $54,000. The total accumulated depreciation over two years is ($58,000 * $0.9) + ($60,000 * $0.9) = $106,200, and the net book value at the end of year 2 is $128,000 - $106,200 = $21,800.Double-declining-balance depreciation: This method accelerates the depreciation expense. The calculation involves doubling the straight-line rate and applying it to the book value at the beginning of each year, not reducing it by the residual value. The double-declining rate is (100% / 4 years) * 2 = 50%. In year 1, the depreciation expense is $128,000 * 50% = $64,000. The net book value at the end of year 1 is $128,000 - $64,000 = $64,000. For year 2, we apply the same 50% rate on the new book value: $64,000 * 50% = $32,000. Hence, the net book value at the end of year 2 is $64,000 - $32,000 = $32,000.Please note that the double-declining-balance method will not depreciate the asset below its residual value. The calculations provided are simplified and the company's accounting policies should be considered for exact figures.

The manager of a discretionary account places client funds in a suitable investment because it provides a higher commission than alternatives that are also suitable for the client. The selected investment subsequently appreciates in value. This investment manager did not:
a. place the client’s interests first.
b. face an ethical dilemma because the investment was profitable.
c. have a conflict of interest because the investment was suitable for the client.
Answer:
have a conflict of interest because the investment was suitable for the client.
Explanation:
A manager as an agent of the client is supposed to always act in the interest of his principal.
In this scenario the manager places client funds in a suitable investment because it provides a higher commission than alternatives that are also suitable for the client. The selected investment subsequently appreciates in value.
The manager acted in the interest of the client and this resulted in return on investment
Answer: c. have a conflict of interest because the investment was suitable for the client.
Explanation: A conflict of interest situation arises when an individual (the manager of a discretionary account in this instance) has competing interests or loyalties because of their duties to more than one person or organization and serving one interest could adversely affect a duty owed to make decisions for the benefit of a third party (the client). The manager did not have a conflict of interest because the investment was suitable for the client. However, a manager who knowingly places clients funds in an investment which are not in their best interests, but which earn the manager a bigger commission, would be guilty of conflict of interest.
g Oregon Corp. prepares its financial statements annually and has a calendar year end. The adjusted trial balance ( NO MORE ADJUSTING ENTRIES ARE NEEDED) shows the following balances at December 31, 2019 (all accounts have normal balances): December 31, 2019 General Ledger Balances: Bad debt expense $ 100,000 Accounts Receivable 2,000,000 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 300,000 What amount would be reported on Oregon Corp's balance sheet as the NET accounts receivable (the cash realizable value) at December 31, 2019
Answer:
$1,700,000
Explanation:
The computation of the NET accounts receivable (the cash realizable value) at December 31, 2019 is shown below:
= Account receivable - allowance for doubtful debts
= $2,000,000 - $300,000
= $1,700,000
By deducting the allowance for doubtful debts from the account receivable we can get the net account receivable or the cash realizable value
Therefore we ignored the bad debt expense

Managers in international businesses will need to evaluate the attractiveness of a country as a market or location for a facility or investment. Knowing how to think about events and situations will help the manager make that evaluation. Managers can use economic and socioeconomic indicators to evaluate potential locations to conduct business.
Answer:
The statement is: True.
Explanation:
Before starting businesses in a foreign country, managers must analyze if the target region fulfills the minimal conditions to conduct operations and, more important if the returns are good enough to cover the expenses of the investment. For such a purpose, social indicators such as average consumer income, education, or occupational class should be reviewed by executives. Countries with higher ratings should be the priority to start international businesses there.
A company purchased $9,500 of merchandise on June 15 with terms of 3/10, n/45. On June 20, it returned $475 of that merchandise. On June 24, it paid the balance owed for the merchandise taking any discount it was entitled to. The cash paid on June 24 equals:
$7,968.
$8,342.
$7,925.
$8,170.
$8,600.
Answer:
The amount paid would be $ 8754.75 or $8755
Explanation:
The terms of 3/10, n/45 tell us the 3 % discount will be allowed within the first ten days.
The company bought $9,500 of merchandise on June 15 with terms of 3/10, n/45. On June 20, it returned $475 of that merchandise. So the amount of merchandise inventory left would be
$9,500-$475= $ 9025
On June 24, it paid the balance owed for the merchandise taking any discount it was entitled to.
The discount allowed on $ 9025 would be
3 % of $ 9025=( 3/100)*9025= $ 270.75
Deducting this discount from the amount of $ 9025
The amount paid would be $ 9025 -$ 270.75= $ 8754.75 or $8755
Answer:
The cash paid on June 24 equals $ 8,754.25
Explanation:
Let's recall that term 3/10, indicates the number of days (from the invoice date) within which the buyer should pay the invoice in order to receive the 3 % discount.
n/45 means that if the buyer does not pay the (full) invoice amount within the 10 days to qualify for the discount, then the net amount is due within 45 days after the sales invoice date.
Now, let's calculate the cash paid on June 24, this way:
June 15 - Purchase of $ 9,500
June 20 - Return of $ 475, Balance of $ 9,025
June 24 - Payment of balance less 3% discount because the company is paying before 10 days from the invoice date
9,025 * 0.97 = 8,754.25
The Red Bud Co. pays a constant dividend of $3.10 a share. The company announced today that it will continue to do this for another 2 years after which time they will discontinue paying dividends permanently. What is one share of this stock worth today if the required rate of return is 8.7 percent?
Answer:
The stock is worth $5.48 today
Explanation:
The dividend on this stock is just like an annuity as the amount of dividend is constant and they are paid after a constant interval of time and for a defined period of time. Thus, the price of this share today will be the present value of annuity or the present value of expected future dividends. Using the present value of ordinary annuity formula, the price of the stock will be,
Price today = 3.1 * [ (1 - (1+0.087)^-2) / 0.087 ]
Price today = $5.475 rounded off to $5.48

One year ago, the spot rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars was .90 USD/CAD. Since that time, 17)_____ the rate of inflation in the U.S has been 2% higher than that in Canada. Based on the theory of Relative PPP, the current spot exchange rate of U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars should be approximately:
Answer:
0.88 USD/CAD
Explanation:
As per relative purchase power parity theory, the difference between the inflation rates of two currencies is equal to the rate by which one currency appreciates or depreciates with respect to the other.
In the given case, the difference between inflation rates of two currencies is 2% i.e rate of inflation in USA has been higher by 2% than the rate of inflation in Canada.
As per relative purchase power parity theory, in such a scenario, Canadian dollar would appreciate by 2% or US Dollar will depreciate by 2%.
SPOT rate 1 year ago ,for 1 USD $ = 0.90 CAN$
Difference in inflation rate = Inflation rate in USA - Inflation rate in canada
= + 2%
Thus, CAN $ will appreciate by 2% over the period of 1 year while USD will depreciate by 2%. So the spot rate as on today would be,
[tex]1\ US\ Dollar\ =\ 0.90\ (1\ -\ .02)\ CAN\ Dollar[/tex]
Thus, [tex]1\ US\ Dollar\ =\ 0.882\ CAN\ Dollar[/tex] OR 0.88 CAD approx.
In the month of November Pharoah Company wrote checks in the amount of $68800. In December, checks in the amount of $94176 were written. In November, $63002 of these checks were presented to the bank for payment, and $80970 in December. What is the amount of outstanding checks at the end of December?
The amount of outstanding checks for Pharoah Company at the end of December is $19,004.
To calculate the amount of outstanding checks at the end of December for Pharoah Company, we need to identify the total checks written and the amount that was presented to the bank for payment for both November and December.
In November, Pharoah Company wrote checks totaling $68,800, of which $63,002 were presented to the bank. In December, $94,176 checks were written, with $80,970 being presented to the bank.
Outstanding checks are those that have been written but not yet presented to the bank for payment.
To find the total outstanding checks at the end of December, we first find the outstanding checks for November: $68,800 - $63,002 = $5,798.
Then we sum this amount with the checks written in December and subtract the amount of checks presented in December: ($5,798 + $94,176) - $80,970 = $19,004.
Thus, the amount of outstanding checks at the end of December is $19,004.
Ben and John formed BCD Inc., a corporation, in 2013. Ben received 80% of the voting common stock, the only class of stock and John received the remaining 20% of the stock. In 2014, Ben transferred additional property to BCD Inc. The property had an adjusted basis to Ben of $40,000 and a fair market value of $50,000 on the date of the transfer. On the same day, and in exchange for the property he transferred to BCD Inc., Ben received cash of $15,000 and additional stock worth $35,000. How much gain was recognized by Ben as a result of this transaction
Answer:
Gain recognized by Ben = $10,000
Explanation:
Given Data:
Adjusted basis of property=$40000
Cash received = $15000
Additional stock received = $35000
Total received = Cash received + Additional stock received
= $35000 + $15000
= $50000
Gain recognized by Ben = Total received - Adjusted basis of property
=$50,000 -$40,000
= $10,000
Therefore, gain recognized by Ben = $10,000
Oak Inc. has the following information regarding its assets: Book Value Estimated Undiscounted Cash Flows Fair Value Equipment $ 48,000 $ 43,000 $ 40,000 Building $ 81,000 $ 83,000 $ 78,000 Patent $ 43,000 $ 47,000 $ 45,000 What amount of loss should be recorded due to asset impairments
Answer:
$8,000
Explanation:
Given that,
Equipment:
Book value = $48,000
Estimated Undiscounted Cash Flows = $43,000
Fair value = $40,000
Building:
Book value = $81,000
Estimated Undiscounted Cash Flows = $83,000
Fair value = $78,000
Patent:
Book value = $43,000
Estimated Undiscounted Cash Flows = $47,000
Fair value = $45,000
From the above information, we can conclude that only the equipment is impaired as it is the only asset whose estimated future cash flows are less than its book value.
The impairment loss obtained from the asset is determined as the difference between the fair value and the book value.
Amount of loss should be recorded due to asset impairments:
= Book value - Fair value
= $48,000 - $40,000
= $8,000

Jaycee estimates that the repairs to a Cadillac Escalade damaged in an accident will take 45 hours of labor and $3,500 in parts and materials. The total cost of the repairs is
Answer:
Explanation:
Total cost of repairs:
Material = 3,500
Material loading charge = 3,500 * 65% = 2,275
Labor (45hrs* $47per hr) = 2,115
Thus, total cost =(3500 + 2275 + 2115) = $7,890
The total cost of the repairs is $7,890.
The calculation is as follows:Given that,
Material = 3,500
So,
Material loading charge is
= 65% of $3,500
= 2,275
And,
Labor (45hrs × $47per hr) = 2,115
Thus, total cost is
= $2,275 + $3,500 + $2,115
= $7,890
Therefore we can conclude that The total cost of the repairs is $7,890.

Suppose that the demand equation for Bobby Dolls is given by q = 216 – p2, where p is the price per doll in dollars and q is the number of dolls sold per week. a. Compute the price elasticity of demand when p = $5, and interpret your results. b. Find the price at which the weekly revenue is maximized. c. What is the maximum weekly revenue.
Answer:
P.Ed at p = 5 :- 0.26
Revenue maximising price = 8.5 ; Maximum Total Revenue = 1222
Explanation:
Price Elasticity of Demand shows responsive change in demand, due to change in price. P.Ed = ( dq / dp ) x ( p / q )
q = 216 - p^2
dq / dp = - 2p
P.Ed = dq / dp x ( p / q )
So, PEd = ( -2p ) x ( p / q )
[ (- 2p) (p) ] / [ 216 - p^2 ]
(- 2p^2 ) / ( 216 - p^2 )
Putting value of P = 5 in P.Ed
- 2(25)
216 - 25
= - 50 / 191
P.Ed = 0.26
Revenue is the total value of receipts from sale of goods & services. TR = p x q
q = 216 - p^2
TR = 216p - p^3
To find price maximising TR , we will derivate TR function with respect to 'p'
d TR / d p = 216 - 3p^2
d TR / d p = 216 - 3p^2 = 0
3p^2 = 216
p^2 = 216 / 3
p^2 = 72
p = √ 72
p = 8.5
Finding maximum revenue ; Putting price = 8.5 in TR function
TR = 216p - p^3
216 (8.5) - (8.5)^3
1836 - 614

An enterprising student has set up an internship clearinghouse for business students. Each student who uses the service fills out a form and lists up to 10 companies that he or she would like to have contacted. The clearinghouse has a choice of two methods to use for processing the forms. The traditional method requires about 20 minutes to review the form and arrange the information in the proper order for processing. Once this setup is done, it takes only two minutes per company requested to complete the processing. The other alternative uses an optical scan/retrieve system, which takes only a minute to prepare but requires five minutes per company for completing the processing. If it costs about the same amount per minute for processing with either of the two methods, when should each be used?
Answer:
If it costs about the same amount per minute for processing with either of the two methods,
The traditional method should be used when there is enough time since it requires 20 minutes to process the information for 10 companies.
The other alternative uses an optical scan/retrieve system should be used in emergencies since it takes just one minute to prepare.
Explanation:
Based on the variables provided, The traditional method involves less time in total because it took longer for the alternative method to complete the processing
The traditional method duration is summarized as follows
20 minutes to review the form and arrange the information in the proper order for processing.
2 minutes per company to complete the processing (2 x 20)
bringing the total duration for review and processing to 40 minutes.
The alternative method which uses an optical scan/retrieve system, which takes only
1 minute to prepare
5 minutes per company for completing the processing (5 x 10)

The traditional method should be used when a student lists 6 or fewer companies, and the optical scan/retrieve method should be used when a student lists 7 or more companies. This conclusion is reached by calculating the break-even point.
Explanation:To determine when to use each method, you need to find the break-even point; this is when the time it takes for both methods is the same. Let's denote the number of companies as 'n'.
For the traditional method, the time required is 20 minutes for form review plus 2 minutes per company: T1 = 20 + 2n minutes.
For the optical scan, the time required is 1-minute preparation and 5 minutes per company: T2 = 1 + 5n minutes.
To find the break-even point, set T1 equal to T2, and solve for 'n':
20 + 2n = 1 + 5n.
By solving this equation, we find that 'n' equals 6.33. This means that the traditional method should be used when a student lists 6 or fewer companies, and the optical scan/retrieve method should be used when a student lists 7 or more companies.

Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE).
Answer:manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE)= 0.40
Explanation:
Solution to solve for the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE)
Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency (MCE) is solved using the following
Throughput time = Process time + Inspection time + Move time + Queue time
= 6 Days + 0.6 Days + 0.4 Days + 8 Days
= 15 Days
Therefore, the Manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) = Process time / Throughput time
= 6 Days / 15 Days
= 0.40
Therefore, the Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency (MCE) will be 0.40
Division A of Barsema, Inc. has operating data as follows: Capacity 20,000 units Selling price $80 per unit Variable costs $45 per unit Fixed costs $20 per unit Division B wants to purchase units from Division A. If Division A agrees to sell units to Division B, A's variable costs will be $5 less per unit. If Division A has capacity available to meet B's requirements, what is the minimum price it should charge
Answer:
the minimum price it should charge is $40 per unit.
Explanation:
Minimum Transfer Price = Variable Costs - Internal Savings + Opportunity Cost
Note : Division A has capacity available to meet B's requirements therefore there is no opportunity cost.
There are Internal savings of $5 as A's variable costs will be $5 less per unit.
Minimum Transfer Price = $45 - $5

The stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet for Pokagon Corporation appeared as follows before its recent stock dividend: Common stock, $10 par, 10,000 shares issued and outstanding $ 100,000 Additional paid-in capital - common 120,000 Retained earnings 150,000 Total stockholders' equity $370,000 Pokagon declared a 10% stock dividend when the market price per share was $20. After the stock dividend was distributed, the components of the stockholders' equity section were:
Answer:
Common stock = $110,000
Additional Paid in capital = $130,000
Retained earnings = $130,000
Explanation:
The computation of stockholders' equity is given below:
Common stock = Outstanding shares + (Stock dividend percentage × Shares issued × Par value per share)
= 100,000 + (10% × 10,000 × $10)
= $110,000
Additional Paid in capital = Additional paid-in capital - common + (Stock dividend percentage × Shares issued × (Market price per share - Par value per share))
= 120,000 + (10% × 10,000 × ($20 - $10))
= $130,000
Retained earnings= Retained earning(Given) - (Stock dividend percentage × Outstanding shares × Market price per share)
= 150,000 - (10% × 100,000 × $20)
= $130,000

Cedar Designs Company, a custom cabinet manufacturing company, is setting standard costs for one of its products. The main material is cedar wood, sold by the square foot. The current cost of cedar wood is $ 7.00 per square foot from the supplier. Delivery costs are $ 0.40 per square foot. Carpenters' wages are $ 20.00 per hour. Payroll costs are $ 3.00 per hour, and benefits are $ 6.00 per hour. How much is the direct labor standard cost per hour? A. $ 9.00 B. $ 23.00 C. $ 29.00 D. $ 20.00
Answer:
Standard direct labour cost = $20.00 per hour
Explanation:
The direct labour costs represent expenditures incurred in respect of direct worker which can be traced to the product been produced. For example, the labour cost of machine operator saddled with production task.
The payroll cost is not a direct labour cost because payroll employed are not direct workers, also benefits are overheads related to direct workers
Standard direct labour cost = $20.00
Kansas Company has a current production capacity level of 200,000 units per month. At this level of production, variable costs are $0.60 per unit and fixed costs are $0.50 per unit. Current monthly sales are 173,000 units. 3M Company has contacted Kansas Company about purchasing 20,000 units at $1.00 each. Current sales would not be affected by the special order and no additional fixed costs would be incurred on the special order. If the order is accepted, what is Kansas Company's change in profits

Effect on income= $8,000 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Variable costs are $0.60 per unit
3M Company has contacted Kansas Company about purchasing 20,000 units at $1.00 each.
Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs:
Effect on income= 20,000*(1 - 0.6)= $8,000 increase

U.S. car dealers sell both used and new cars each year. However, only the sales of the new cars count toward GDP. The sale of used cars does not count because:
a. the car had been previously counted in the GDP of the year it was built.
b. there are more used cars than new cars.
c. the value of the used car depends on the value of the new car.
d. the value of used cars cannot be determined.
Answer: a. the car had been previously counted in the GDP of the year it was built.
Explanation: Though both used and new cars are sold in the U.S. by car dealers, the sale of used cars does not count because the car had been previously counted in the GDP of the year it was built. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which is defined as a measure of the economic production of a country in financial terms over a specific time period (usually a year), sums the dollar value of what has been produced in the economy over the year, not what was actually sold. In simpler terms, they were produced in a previous year and are part of that year's GDP.
a. the car had been previously counted in the GDP of the year it was built.
The sale of used cars does not count toward GDP because the car had been previously counted in the GDP of the year it was built.
GDP measures the value of goods and services produced within a specific period, typically one year. When a new car is manufactured and sold, its value is included in that year's GDP.
However, reselling that car in subsequent years does not count towards GDP because it does not reflect new production, merely a transfer of ownership of an already produced good. This exclusion helps prevent double counting of goods and ensures that GDP accurately reflects the amount of new production occurring within the economy in a given year.
