Answer:
$104,000
Explanation:
The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.
The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.
The sale of assets, interest received, purchase of investments are examples of investing activities while the issuance of stocks, debt principal deduction (loan settlement), issuance of debt securities etc are examples of financing activities.
An increase in assets other than cash is an outflow while an increase in liabilities is an inflow. Depreciation and other non-cash expenses deducted in the income statements are added back while the non-cash income such gain on asset are deducted from net income.
As such,
Cash provided by operating activities
= $10,000 + $40,000 + $12,000 + $35,000 - $1,000 + $8,000
= $104,000
Answer:
Cash was provided by operating activities is $84,000.
Explanation:
To arrive at the cash was provided by operating activities, we need to prepare an extract of statement of cash flows (operating activities) as follows:
Statement of cash flows (extract)
Net loss ($10,000)
Add: Depreciation $40,000
Decrease in accounts receivable $12,000
Decrease in inventories $35,000
Increase in accounts payable $8,000
Less: Increase in prepaid expenses $1,000
Net cash flows from operating activities $84,000
Note that the purchase of treasury stock of $50,000 belongs to cash flows from financing activities.

On January 1, 2018, Alamar Corporation acquired a 38 percent interest in Burks, Inc., for $199,000. On that date, Burks's balance sheet disclosed net assets with both a fair and book value of $325,000. During 2018, Burks reported net income of $75,000 and declared and paid cash dividends of $22,000. Alamar sold inventory costing $25,000 to Burks during 2018 for $38,000. Burks used all of this merchandise in its operations during 2018. Prepare all of Alamar's 2018 journal entries to apply the equity method to this investment.
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entries are shown below:
1. Investment in Burks inc $199,000
To Cash $199,000
(being the investment purchased for cash is recorded)
2. Investment in Burks inc ($75,000 × 38%) $28,500
To equity in investment income $28,500
(Being the investment income is recorded)
3. Dividend receivable Dr ($22,000 × 38%) $8,360
To Investment in Burks inc $8,360
(Being the dividend receivable is recorded)
4. Cash Dr $8,360
To Dividend receivable $8,360
(Being the collection of cash is recorded)
Only these four entries are passed
Alamar Corporation uses the equity method to account for its 38 percent investment in Burks, Inc. This involves adjusting the investment account for Alamar's share of Burks's net income and dividends, and accounting for the unrealized profit on intercompany inventory sales.
When Alamar Corporation acquired a 38 percent interest in Burks, Inc., they would account for this investment under the equity method because they have significant influence over Burks, Inc. The equity method records the initial investment at cost, and then adjusts the value of the investment over time to reflect Alamar's share of Burks's net income and dividends paid out.
The initial journal entry to record the investment on January 1, 2018, is:
Cash 199,000
Investment in Burks 28,500
When Burks declared and paid cash dividends of $22,000, Alamar's share (38%) reduces the carrying amount of the investment:
Regarding the inventory sale, since Burks used all the merchandise, we must eliminate the unrealized profit on inventory sold by Alamar. Alamar sold the goods at $38,000, costing them $25,000. The unrealized profit is the difference (sales cost) that's not realized until Burks actually sells the item to an unrelated party. So, the profit that needs to be eliminated from Alamar's income is 38% (Alamar’s share) of the $13,000 (gross profit), which is $4,940.
Equity in Earnings of Burks 4,940
Investment in Burks 4,940
Kim Lee is trying to decide whether she can afford a loan she needs in order to go to chiropractic school. Right now Kim is living at home and works in a shoe store, earning a gross income of $1,230 per month. Her employer deducts a total of $171 for taxes from her monthly pay. Kim also pays $110 on several credit card debts each month. The loan she needs for chiropractic school will cost an additional $133 per month. Help Kim make her decision by calculating her debt payments-to-income ratio with and without the college loan. (Remember the 20 percent rule.) (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Debt payments-to-income ratio with college loan % Debt payments-to-income ratio without college loan %3.Carl’s house payment is $1,640 per month and his car payment is $482 per month. If Carl's take-home pay is $3,250 per month, what percentage does Carl spend on his home and car? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Loan payments-to-income ratio %2.Suppose that your monthly net income is $2,850. Your monthly debt payments include your student loan payment and a gas credit card. They total $1,140. What is your debt payments-to-income ratio?
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
ty the answer is 293840 use a calculator and 2% of 2837e928 m.
Final answer:
Kim Lee's debt payments-to-income ratio without the college loan would be 10.39%, and it would be 22.94% with the college loan. Carl spends 65.29% of his income on his home and car payments. If your net income is $2,850 and your monthly debt payments total $1,140, your debt payments-to-income ratio would be 40%.
Explanation:
To assist Kim Lee with her decision about the chiropractic school loan, we need to calculate her debt payments-to-income ratio with and without the college loan.
First, we'll calculate Kim's net income, which is her gross income minus the taxes deducted:
Gross Income: $1,230 per monthTaxes: $171 per monthNet Income: $1,230 - $171 = $1,059 per monthNow, her current monthly debt payments (credit card debts) are $110. To calculate the debt payments-to-income ratio without the college loan, we divide her monthly debt payments by her net income and multiply by 100 to get a percentage:
Debt payments-to-income ratio without college loan = ($110 / $1,059) × 100 = 10.39%
If she takes out the college loan, her monthly debt payments will increase by $133.
Total monthly debt payments with college loan = $110 + $133 = $243
Debt payments-to-income ratio with college loan = ($243 / $1,059) × 100 = 22.94%
For Carl's situation, his total monthly payment on debt (house and car) is $1,640 + $482 = $2,122. His take-home pay is $3,250.
Loan payments-to-income ratio for Carl = ($2,122 / $3,250) × 100 = 65.29%
Last, to find your own debt payments-to-income ratio:
Your Net Income: $2,850 per monthYour Total Monthly Debt Payments: $1,140Your Debt payments-to-income ratio = ($1,140 / $2,850) × 100 = 40%Bardell, Inc. prepared its statement of cash flows for the year.

A note disclosed that the allowance for uncollectible accounts had a balance of $42.4 million and $39.7 million at the end of 2015 and 2014, respectively. Bad debt expense for 2015 was $30.0 million. Required:Determine the amount of cash collected from customers during 2015. (All sales are on credit. Enter your answer in millions rounded to 1 decimal place (i.e., 5,500,000 should be entered as 5.5).)
Answer:
Allowance for uncollectible accounts: ($ in millions)
Balance, beginning of year $39.7
Add: Bad debt expense $30.0
Less: End of year balance ($42.4)
Write offs during the year $27.3
Accounts receivable analysis:
Balance, beginning of year ($2,076.6 + $39.7) $2,116.3
Add: Credit sales $19,281.6
Less: Writeoffs ($27.3)
Less: Balance end of year ($2,949.4 + $42.4) ($2,991.8)
Cash collections $18,378.8
Final answer:
The amount of cash collected from customers during 2015 is calculated to be $57.3 million after considering the bad debt expense and adjustments to the allowance for uncollectible accounts.
Explanation:
To determine the amount of cash collected from customers during 2015 when all sales are on credit, we should analyze the changes in the allowance for uncollectible accounts and the bad debt expense reported for the year. The beginning balance of the allowance for uncollectible accounts was $39.7 million in 2014 and increased to $42.4 million by the end of 2015. Given that the bad debt expense for 2015 was $30.0 million, we can calculate the cash collections.
The changes in the allowance for uncollectible accounts can be represented by the following equation:
Beginning Allowance Balance + Bad Debt Expense – Write-offs = Ending Allowance Balance.
Plugging in the known values, we get:
$39.7 million + $30.0 million – Write-offs = $42.4 million.
To find the value of the write-offs, we rearrange the equation:
Write-offs = $39.7 million + $30.0 million - $42.4 million.
Write-offs = $27.3 million.
Now, since all sales are on credit, the cash collected from customers is equal to the sales minus the increase in the accounts receivable (which includes both the bad debt expense and write-offs). Assuming no incremental increase in sales on credit, the cash collected is represented by:
Cash Collected = Bad Debt Expense + Write-offs
Cash Collected = $30.0 million + $27.3 million
Cash Collected = $57.3 million

The Ramirez Company's last dividend was $1.5. Its dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 15% for 2 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 5% forever. Its required return (rs) is 12%. What is the best estimate of the current stock price?
Answer:
current stock price, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = $26.84
Explanation:
Given,
Most recent dividend, [tex]D_{0}[/tex] = $1.50
Growth rate, [tex]g_{1}[/tex] = 15% = 0.15 (Next 2 years)
[tex]g_{2}[/tex] = 5% = 0.05 (remain constant after 2 years)
required rate of return , [tex]r_{s}[/tex] = 12% = 0.12
We know,
Current stock price, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = [[tex]D_{1}[/tex] ÷ (1 + [tex]r_{s}[/tex])] + [tex]\frac{D_{2} + P_{2}}{(1 + r_{s})^{2}}[/tex]
or, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = [{[tex]D_{0}[/tex] × (1 + [tex]g_{1}[/tex])} ÷ (1 + [tex]r_{s}[/tex])] + [tex]\frac{D_{0} (1 + g_{1})^{2} + \frac{D_{3}}{r_{s} - g_{2}}}{(1 + r_{s})^{2}}[/tex]
or, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = [{$1.50 × (1 + 0.15)} ÷ (1 + 0.12)] + [tex]\frac{1.50*(1+0.15)^{2} + \frac{D_{2} (1 + g_{2})}{(0.12 - 0.05)}}{(1+0.12)^{2}}[/tex]
or, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = ($1.725 ÷ 1.12) + [tex]\frac{1.98375 + \frac{1.98375*(1 + 0.05)}{0.07}}{1.2544}[/tex]
or, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = $1.5402 + [(1.98375 + 29.75625) ÷ 1.2544]
or, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = $1.5402 + (31.74 ÷ 1.2544)
or, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = $1.5402 + 25.3029
Therefore, current stock price, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = $26.84

Your firm has a total revenue of $1,000, a total cost of $1,500 and a variable cost of $500. What does this tell us about your profits and whether or not you should operate or shut down
Answer:
Firm should operate.
Explanation:
Here, we are assuming that this is a situation of short run.
A firm will operate or shut down is totally dependent upon whether the firm will be able to cover its variable cost of not. If a firm will be able to cover all of its variable cost then this firm will not shut down and operates in the short run until it covers all of its variable costs.
In this case, given that,
Total revenue = $1,000
Total cost = $1,500
Variable cost = $500
Profits = Total revenue - Total cost
= $1,000 - $1,500
= -$500
Therefore, this clearly shows that this firm will be able to cover its variable cost of $500 with the total revenue of $1,000. That's why the firm remains in the market even there is a loss of $500.
Hence, this firm should operate.
When a purchase order is released, a commitment is made by a governmental unit to buy a computer to be manufactured to specifications for use in property tax administration. This commitment should be recorded in the general fund as a(n) General capital asset. Appropriation. Expenditure Encumbrance
Answer: Encumbrance
Explanation: The commitment made by a governmental unit to buy some product for use in administration is recorded in the general fund as an encumbrance which is defined as an interest, right, burden or liability that must be carried. As such, an encumbrance ensures that there will be enough funds available for the payment of certain governmental obligations and commonly refers to restricted funds in the general fund account.
Answer:
Encumbrance
Explanation:
An encumbrance is a portion of a budget set aside for spending required by law or contract. Like the budget itself, an encumbrance is a projection and not yet a reality. If business conditions continue as they are when you set the budget, then the encumbrance will become an expense.
The most common types of encumbrance apply to real estate; these include mortgages, easements, and property tax liens. Not all forms of encumbrance are financial, easements being an example of non-financial encumbrances. An encumbrance can also apply to personal – as opposed to real – property.
Masterson Company's budgeted production calls for 66,000 units in April and 62,000 units in May of a key raw material that costs $1.60 per unit. Each month's ending raw materials inventory should equal 30% of the following month's budgeted materials. The April 1 inventory for this material is 19,800 unit. What is the budgeted materials needed in units for April?
Answer:
The budgeted materials needed in units for April is 64,800 units
Explanation:
In order to calculate the budgeted materials needed in units for April we would have to use the following formula:
Budgeted Materials =Materials needed +ending inventory −beginning inventory available
To calculate the ending inventory we would have to use the following formula:
Ending inventory=0.3×Following month budgeted materials
Ending inventory=0.3×62,000
Ending inventory=18,600
Therefore, Budgeted Materials =66,000+18,600−19,800
Budgeted Materials= 64,800 units
The budgeted materials needed in units for April is 64,800 units
The budgeted materials needed in units for April are 64,800 units.
To determine the budgeted materials needed in units for April for Masterson Company, we need to calculate the raw materials required for production and the desired ending inventory for April. Here's a step-by-step breakdown:
1. Calculate the desired ending inventory for April:
- May's budgeted production: 62,000 units
- Desired ending inventory for April (30% of May's production):
[tex]\[ \text{Ending inventory for April} = 0.30 \times 62,000 = 18,600 \text{ units} \][/tex]
2. Calculate the total raw materials required for April:
- April's budgeted production: 66,000 units
- Beginning inventory for April: 19,800 units
3. Formula to calculate the budgeted raw materials needed:
[tex]\[ \text{Materials needed for production} + \text{Desired ending inventory} - \text{Beginning inventory} = \text{Budgeted materials needed} \][/tex]
- Materials needed for production in April: 66,000 units
- Desired ending inventory for April: 18,600 units
- Beginning inventory for April: 19,800 units
4. Plug the values into the formula:
[tex]\[ \text{Budgeted materials needed} = 66,000 + 18,600 - 19,800 \][/tex]
5. Calculate the result:
[tex]\[ \text{Budgeted materials needed} = 66,000 + 18,600 - 19,800 = 64,800 \text{ units} \][/tex]
________ are more effective at generating recall and familiarity with a product, whereas ________ generate cognitive activity that encourage consumers to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of a product. A) Distributed communications; massed communicationsB) Interference effects; involvement effects C) Pictorial cues; verbal cues D) Narrow categorizers; broad categorizers E) Copy tests; recognition tests
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": Pictorial cues; verbal cues.
Explanation:
Marketing uses different approaches to attract consumers' attention. When it comes to portraying images, advertising can implement pictorial cues to create a depth sensation on two-dimensional surfaces like flyers. Though, a verbal cue is necessary as well to provide the information the promotion is intended to transmit. That data can let the audience know what the advantages and disadvantages of the product promoted are.
Coolmist produces high quality juices and competes head-on with the large national brands. Because of this stiff competition, they find it very difficult to raise the price of their juice. Oranges are a key raw material. As a rule the risk managers of Coolmist are NOT interested in designing an expensive risk management insurance strategy aimed at protecting their profit margins against small changes in the price of oranges. However, they are very interested in designing a cheaper risk management strategy that will protect margins against large changes in he price of oranges. Given this scenario, what financial engineering strategy would be most beneficial to Coolmist
Answer:
Explanation:
Being a juice producer, for which the raw material is oranges, Coolmist has to keep an eye on the prices of oranges. To protect herself from an increase in the cost of oranges, the financial engineering strategy that would be most beneficial to her is that she should buy in-the-money calls on oranges so that she will have an option to buy the oranges at the pre-decided strike price of the call option.
By doing the above, she would be protected against the price hike.

Selling price for regular sales = $54 per unitUnit product costs for regular sales:Direct materials = $15 per unitDirect labor = $19 per unitManufacturing overhead = $6 per unit (of which $2 is fixed and $4 is variable)Total unit product cost for regular sales = $15 + $19 + $6= $40 per unit
Special order details:
Special order quantity = 11,000 units
Additional direct labor cost for the special order = $3 per unit
Variable portion of manufacturing overhead per unit = $4 per unit
There is a need to calculate the minimum selling price that Zena should accept for the special order.
Calculating the relevant cost for the special order:
Relevant cost per unit = Direct materials + Additional direct labor + Variable portion of manufacturing overhead
Relevant cost per unit = $15 + $3 + $4
= $22 per unit
Calculating the contribution margin per unit:
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Relevant cost per unit
Contribution margin per unit = $54 - $22
= $32 per unit
To ensure that the special order provides a positive contribution to cover fixed costs and contribute to profit, the minimum selling price should be at least the relevant cost per unit:
Minimum selling price = Relevant cost per unit
Minimum selling price = $22 per unit
Therefore, the minimum selling price that Zena should accept for the special order is $22 per unit. Any selling price above this amount will contribute to covering fixed costs and generating a profit.

Prithi acquired and placed in service $190,000 of equipment on August 1, 2015, for use in her sole proprietorship. The equipment is 5-year recovery property. No other acquisitions are made during the year. Prithi elects to expense the maximum amount under Sec. 179. Prithi's total deductions for the year (including Sec. 179 and depreciation) area.) $25,000b.) $63,000c.) $58,000d.) $38,000
Answer:
d.) $38,000
Explanation:
Given that
Acquired value of the plant = $190,000
Recovery period = 5 years
So according to section 179, the total deduction is limit to the 1 by 5 i.e useful life or recovery period of acquired price or purchase price
So, the amount is
= Acquired value of the plant ÷ recovery period
= $190,000 ÷ 5 years
= $38,000
By dividing the acquired value with the recovery period we can get the maximum deduction

A. financial accounting rules (GAAP) require the use of standard costs.
B. tax rules require the use of standard costs.
C. standard costs are more readily available than actual costs.
D. standard costs facilitate a professionally negotiated, amicable settlement between the buying and selling divisions.
E.inefficient producing divisions could pass on their inefficiencies to buying divisions in the transfer price.
Answer:
E.inefficient producing divisions could pass on their inefficiencies to buying divisions in the transfer price.
Explanation:
The transfer price refers to that price in which the one firm is charging the prices from the other firm with respect to the service rendered. It is based on price charged in the market
To find out the transfer price we considered the standard cost instead of the actual cost as the divisions may be have more actual cost as compare to the standard cost which resulted into the inefficiency that impact the buying based on the transfer price
Product Pricing: Single Product Assume that you plan to open a soft ice cream franchise in a resort community during the summer months. Fixed operating costs for the three- month period are projected to be $5,650. Variable costs per serving include the cost of the ice cream and cone, $0.50, and a franchise fee payable to Austrian Ice, AG, $0.15. A market analysis prepared by the Austrian Ice indicates that the summer sales in the resort community should total 24,000.
Required: Determine the price should charge for each ice cream cone to achieve a $20,000 profit for the three-month period.
Answer:
$1.71
Explanation:
The computation of sales per unit is shown below:-
Variable cost = Total units × (Cost of ice cream and cone + Franchise fee payable)
= 24,000 × ($0.50 + $0.15)
= 24,000 × $0.65
= $15,600
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
= $5,650 + $15,600
= $21,250
Sales = Total cost + Profit
= $21,250 + $20,000
= $41,250
Sales price per unit = Sales ÷ Community total
= $41,250 ÷ 24,000
= $1.71

3) September 30, 2016 Notes Payable $39.2million Dr
Interest Payable $0.784million Dr
Interest Expense $2.352million Dr
Cash $42.336million Cr
Explanation:
1.
When note is issued, liability is credit by the notes value and cash is credited.
2.
The adjusting entry is prepared 3 months after the note is issued so the 3 month's interest on note relates to 2015 and it should be recorded as expense and as it is payable at maturity so interest payable is credited.
3 month interest = 39.2 * 0.08 * 3/12 = 0.784million
3.
The note and interest will be payable that was accrued along with the remaining 9 months interest. Total interest is 39.2 * 0.08 = 3.136million

Wexell Framing's cost formula for its supplies cost is $1,230 per month plus $10 per frame. For the month of October, the company planned for activity of 592 frames, but the actual level of activity was 597 frames. The actual supplies cost for the month was $7,050. The activity variance for supplies cost in October would be closest to:
Answer:
The correct answer is $50 (unfavorable).
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
Planning supply activity cost = (592 × $10) +$1230
= $7,150
Actual supply activity cost = (597 × $10) + $1230
= $7,200
We can calculate the activity variance for supply cost by using following formula:-
Activity variance for supplies cost = Actual activity cost – Planning activity cost
= $7,200 - $7,150
= $50 ( positive shows unfavorable)

Newlife Inc. announced today that it will begin paying annual dividends. The first dividend will be paid next year in the amount of $.63 a share. The following dividends will be $.68, $.83, and $1.13 a share annually for the following three years, respectively. After that, dividends are projected to increase by 4.1 percent per year. How much are you willing to pay today to buy one share of this stock if your desired rate of return is 15 percent?
Answer:
$7.63
Explanation:
Worth of the stock is the present value of all the cash flows associated with the stock. Dividend is the only cash flow that a stock holder receives against its investment in the stocks. We need to calculate the present values of all the dividend payments.
Formula for PV of dividend
PV of Dividend = Dividend x ( 1 + r )^-n
1st year
PV of Dividend = $0.63 x ( 1 + 15% )^-1 = $0.55
2nd year
PV of Dividend = $0.68 x ( 1 + 15% )^-2 = $0.51
3rd year
PV of Dividend = $0.83 x ( 1 + 15% )^-3 = $0.55
4th year
PV of Dividend = $1.13 x ( 1 + 15% )^-4 = $0.65
After four years the dividend will grow at a constant rate of 4.1%, so we will use the following formula to calculate the present value
PV of Dividend = [ $1.13 x ( 1 + 4.1% ) / ( 15% - 4.1% ) ] x [ ( 1 + 15% )^-5 ]
PV of Dividend = $5.37
Value of Stock = $0.55 + $0.51 + $0.55 + $0.65 + $5.37 = $7.63

Charisma, Inc., has debt outstanding with a face value of $6.2 million. The value of the firm if it were entirely financed by equity would be $29.9 million. The company also has 425,000 shares of stock outstanding that sell at a price of $58 per share. The corporate tax rate is 22 percent. What is the decrease in the value of the company due to expected bankruptcy costs
Answer:
Decrease in value of company due to expected bankruptcy cost = $414,000
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
According to M & M proportional I with taxes,
Levered firm value is = Equity + Debt

An aging of a company's accounts receivable indicates that $4,000 are estimated to be uncollectible. If Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a $900 debit balance, the adjustment to record bad debts for the period will require aa. debit to Bad Debit Expense for $5,200 b. debit to Bad Debits Expense for $4,000 c. debit to Bad Debits Expense for $2,800 d. credit to Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for $5,000
Answer:
The correct answer is Debit to Bad debt expense for $4,900, unfortunately none of the options provided in the question is correct.
Explanation:
Bad debt expense is an estimated amount of accounts receivable that is deemed to be uncollectible. There are different methods used in determining the bad debt expense - aging method, percentage-of-credit-sales method.
In the question, an amount of $4,000 was already estimated as uncollectible meanwhile the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a $900 debit balance. This means the bad debt expense that would be recorded would be $4,000 + $900 = $4,900. The addition is necessary in order to reinstate the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts to $4,000 and since the opening balance of the allowance account is in debit. Required journal entries are as follows:
Debit Bad debt expense $4,900
Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $4,900
(To record bad debt expense)
