The shareholders’ equity of Tru Corporation includes $540,000 of $1 par common stock and $1,140,000 par of 7% cumulative preferred stock. The board of directors of Tru declared cash dividends of $144,000 in 2018 after paying $54,000 cash dividends in each of 2017 and 2016.
What is the amount of dividends common shareholders will receive in 2018?

Answer: The options are given below:

A. Use of a single predetermined overhead rate.

B. Use of direct labor hours or direct labor cost to assign overhead.

C. Assumption of correlation between direct labor and incurrence of overhead cost.

D. Use of multiple cost drivers to allocate overhead.

The correct option is D.

Explanation: The traditional costing system refers to the allocation of factory overhead to products, and this is based on the total amount of production resources that have been consumed.

When using the traditional costing system, the overhead is usually applied based on either the total number of direct labor hours consumed or the total number of machine hours used.

The traditional costing systems treat overhead costs as a single pool of indirect costs. Traditional costing is optimal when indirect costs are low when in comparison with direct costs.

Answer:

$100

Explanation:

Market price of common shares = $10 per share

Number of common shares granted by RSUs = 50 million

Total market value of common stock issued = Number of Common shares granted by RSUs × Market price of common shares

Total Market value of common stock issued = 50 million × $10 = $500

Vesting Period = 5 years

The effect on earnings in the year after the shares are granted to executives = Total market value of common stock issued / Vesting Period

The effect on earnings in the year after the shares are granted to executives = $500 / 5 years

The effect on earnings in the year after the shares are granted to executives = $100

Answer:

$ 100,000,000

Explanation:

The firm grant potential for 50 million shares with a market price of $10

The par value is disregard from calculation as the firm will issue at market value to avoid dilution.

This represent 500 millions. As the firm has a vesting period of 5 years it will accue over time this amount instead of directly reduced when the stock are excerise:

500 million / 5 years = 100 million per year

Answer:

The effective financing rate of borrowing yen is -25.8%

Explanation:

Amount borrowed in US = 2,000,00 * 0.005  = 10,000

amount paid back = 2,000,000 * 1.06 * 0.0035  = 7,420

effective cost of borrowing =  (1.06 * 0.0035/0.005) - 1 = -25.8%

Answer:

Explanation:

depreciation of the yen = 100( ( $ 0.0035 / $ 0.005) - 1 ) = - 30%

the effective rate of borrowing = ( 1 + 0.06) ( 1 + ( -30%)) - 1 = -0.258 × 100 = - 25.8 %

Answer:

31,000 units

Explanation:

The movement in the balance of inventory between the beginning and end of a given period is usually as a result of production and sales.

This may be expressed mathematically as ;

Opening balance + production - cost of goods sold = closing balance

10,000 + units produced - 40,000 = 1,000

Unit produced = 40,000 + 1,000 - 10,000

= 31,000 units

Answer:

Net profit per unit  = -0.1

Explanation:

given data

purchased a call option = .02 per unit

strike price = 0.45

spot rate = 0.48

swiss franc option =  62,500 units

solution

we get here Premium that is .02  of 62,500 is = 1250

so here Net profit per unit will be

Net profit per unit = strike price + Premium - Spot rate    ......................1

put here value

Net profit per unit = 0.2   +  0.45 - 0.48

Net profit per unit  = -0.1

Answer:

The turnover = Cost of goods sold / Account payable  

       = 43,821 / 7,843 = 5,59 times

Average suppliers pay off = 365/5,59 = 65,2 ~ 66 days

Explanation:

Roughly speaking, a large value for this ratio imply that T.I might take a lot of time to pay.

Final answer:

The average time it took for Tortoise Inc. to pay its suppliers cannot be calculated with only the end-of-year accounts payable and COGS provided. A complete calculation needs the accounts payable turnover ratio, which requires additional information on how often payments were made within the year.

Explanation:

To calculate the average time it took for Tortoise Inc. to pay off its suppliers during the year, you would typically use the accounts payable turnover ratio. However, since we only have the ending accounts payable balance and the cost of goods sold (COGS), we cannot determine the turnover ratio or the average payment period without knowing the frequency at which the accounts payable were paid off during the year.

To understand this better, let's take an example with all the necessary information: if a company had a COGS of $100,000 for the year and an average accounts payable balance of $20,000, you would calculate the accounts payable turnover ratio as COGS divided by average accounts payable, which would be 5 times per year. If there are 365 days in a year, you would then divide this number by the turnover ratio to find the average payment period, resulting in 73 days (365 / 5).

A large value for this ratio could imply that the company takes a longer time to pay its suppliers, which could mean it is managing its cash flow effectively or could signal potential cash flow issues, depending on the context and industry standards.

Answer:

Government; Commercial

For many years, General Motors manufactured two versions of the same basic vehicle: the Humvee, used by the U.S. military, and the Hummer, available to the public. Because of this product, GM was part of both the government and commercial B2B markets.

Explanation:

Government and commercial Business to Business (B2B) markets both are categorized under B2B's larger umbrella. In B2B, organization sell their products and services only to the businesses (either large or small) who used their products as the raw materials for their finished products or either they use them for their own benefits. As it can be clearly seen in this case, where General Motors are selling their products to two categories, they are selling to the government which is termed as government B2B buyer and to other business as well which are categorized as commercial B2B buyers.

General Motors was part of both the commercial and government B2B markets through the manufacturing of the Hummer for public sale and the Humvee for the U.S. military respectively.

For many years, General Motors (GM) produced two versions of a vehicle: the Humvee, which was used by the U.S. military, and the Hummer, which was available to the public. As a result of producing the Humvee, GM was part of the government B2B market, as it involved business transactions with the government sector. Meanwhile, by producing the Hummer for public sale, GM operated in the commercial B2B market, selling to other businesses that would resell or utilize the vehicle.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Theoretical capacity levels are usually lower than rated capacity levels

To calculate the budgeted units of production for January, we add 20% of February's projected sales to the projected sales for January. The correct answer is 236,000. To calculate the budgeted units of production for February, we add 20% of March's projected sales to the projected sales for February. The correct answer is 222,000.

To calculate the budgeted units of production for January, we need to consider the desired ending finished goods inventory for February. The question states that the desired ending finished goods inventory is 20% of the following month's sales. So we calculate 20% of February's projected sales (180,000 units), which is 36,000 units. Adding this to the projected sales for January (200,000 units), the budgeted units of production for January is 236,000 units. Therefore, the correct answer is d. 236,000.

To calculate the budgeted units of production for February, we need to consider the desired ending finished goods inventory for March. The question states that the desired ending finished goods inventory is 20% of the following month's sales. So we calculate 20% of March's projected sales (210,000 units), which is 42,000 units. Adding this to the projected sales for February (180,000 units), the budgeted units of production for February is 222,000 units. Therefore, the correct answer is b. 222,000.

Answer:

7.211538 ~ 8

Explanation:

1 machine operates 16 hrs per day, for 260 days

number of mins = 16*260*60

                           = 249600 mins

for 0.25 mins it can do 1 transaction

for 249600 ​ mins = 249600 / 0.25

                              = 998400

Cushion for 20% needed

so it can do 80% of 998400 = 0.8*998400

                                               = 798720

Per month transactions = 400000

Total year = 12*400000

                 = 4800000

Its expected to increase by 20%

Hence new number of trasactions = 1.2*4800000

                                                       = 5760000

Number of machines required = 5760000​/798720

                                                   = 7.211538 ~ 8

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Financial statements are written records that convey the business activities and the financial performance of a company. Financial statements are often audited by government agencies, accountants, firms, etc. to ensure accuracy and for tax, financing, or investing purposes.

These documents play a pivotal role in a financial institution, thus, not optional.

Cheers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Financial statements are not optional, several government entities require companies to present them, and if it is a traded company, then the requirements are even more, e.g. IRS, state and local taxing entities, SEC.

The next part of the statement was almost right:

But the last part was wrong: prediction of the firm's future performance. Accounting doesn't predict anything, it reports past transactions. My accounting professor always referred to accounting records as pictures of the company, they show you how the company was at a certain point in time. Financial statements can even change significantly from the moment that they are prepared (e.g. December 31) until the moment that they are finished (around February-March). No company presents their financial statements on January 2, even individuals are aloud to present their personal tax filing by April.

Answer: a. evaluate available resource

Explanation:

Management set a production goal of 500 shippable parts per​ eight-hour shift. The scrap rate had been running at nine percent. The maximum speed of the machines was 60 parts per​ hour or one per minute. Which one of the​ goal-setting steps were​ missed?

a. evaluate available resource this is the key aspect of production without which production can not kick start or hamper its speed.

Management missed the step of 'evaluating available resources' in their goal-setting process, which is crucial for setting realistic production targets that account for machine capacity and scrap rates.

The goal-setting step that appears to have been missed by management when setting a production goal of 500 shippable parts per eight-hour shift is evaluating available resources. Considering the machines' maximum speed of 60 parts per hour and a scrap rate of nine percent, it is important to account for the productivity loss due to scrap. Without taking this into account, achieving the target may not be realistic. In an eight-hour shift, the total production without scrap would be 480 parts (60 parts/hour x 8 hours). However, with a nine percent scrap rate, the actual number of shippable parts would be lower than the target. Moreover, evaluation of resources is essential for setting achievable goals, streamlining production, and preventing waste of time and materials which are found through audits, such as the one Microsoft conducted according to Shaw (2004).

Answer: Rawlsian Justice

Explanation:

 The Rawlsian justice is one of the concept that helps in building the various types of social contract and also helps in describe about the legal. economical and the political system.

 The Rawlsian theory is basically describe about the basic social structure and the political constitution and it is also know as the economics justice.

According to the given question, the Vikas's thinking is closely align with the Rawlsian justice as he always think that his life and also his children life are different from all the families who are receiving free lunch.      

   Therefore, Rawlsian Justice is the correct answer.

Vikas' viewpoint aligns with societal welfare and opportunity, as he supports state intervention for equitable chances for all children. This contrasts with libertarianism, as he believes in the importance of public policy in addressing educational inequality and investing in the future workforce.

Vikas' willingness to support a state program that provides free lunches to children from low-income families despite it increasing his taxes is most closely aligned with a philosophy that endorses social welfare and equitable opportunity, rather than libertarianism. Libertarianism advocates for minimal state intervention and does not actively endorse policies aimed at redistributing resources to address inequality. Instead, Vikas' view aligns more with the idea that public policy should build a ladder of opportunities for all children, giving each child a chance to succeed based on their abilities, and to help the economy grow by developing skilled workers. This position appreciates the role of the state in levelling the playing field to some extent, recognizing that educational inequality can perpetuate class divides and obstruct fair economic outcomes. Programs such as free school lunches can be seen as an investment in the future workforce that could, in turn, benefit society as a whole by contributing to economic growth and increased tax revenues from a better-educated population.

Answer:

company A charge less than company B if y > 75 miles  

Explanation:

given data

Company A charges =  $135

Company B initial fee = $75

additional charge =  $0.80

solution

we consider here driving =  x mile

and mileages for company A charge less than company B = y

so

when Charges of company A = charges of company B than equation will be

$135  = $75 + $0.80 x    ....................1

solve it we get x

x = 75

so here mileages for which company A charge less than company B is

y > 75

company B is better if the distance is < 75 miles  

company A is better if the distance is > 75 miles

Final answer:

Company A is cheaper than Company B for any mileage over 75 miles. The decision is based on company rates, with Company A offering a flat rate and Company B charging per mile plus an initial fee.

Explanation:

Chau is deciding between two companies for truck rental services based on the mileage he plans to drive. To determine for what mileages Company A will charge less than Company B, we can set up an inequality where Company A's flat rate is less than Company B's mileage-based rate. We know Company A charges a flat rate of $135 for unlimited mileage, and Company B charges an initial fee of $75 plus $0.80 for every mile driven.

Let m represent the number of miles driven. Then we have the following inequality to find when Company A is cheaper:

135 < 75 + 0.80m

To solve for m, we subtract 75 from both sides and then divide by 0.80:

135 - 75 < 0.80m

60 < 0.80m

m > 60 / 0.80

m > 75 miles

Therefore, Company A will charge less than Company B for any mileage greater than 75 miles.

Explanation:

Answer:

Average daily balance = $71.9

Finance charge = $0.9

New balance: $24.65

Explanation:

The average daily balance is calculate by the formula:

+) Average daily balance = Total of daily balance/ Number of days in the cycle.

As given:

+) the daily balance from June 1st to June 18th is $104.00. (18 days)

+) the daily balance on June 19th is:

[tex]Balance - Payment = 104 - 80.25 = $23.75[/tex]

=> The daily balance from June 19th to June 30th is: $23.75 (12 days)

=> Total daily balance of June is: [tex]104 * 18 + 23.75 * 12 = 2,157[/tex]

The number of days is 30.

=> Average daily balance  = 2,157/ 30 = $71.9

The formula to calculate the finance charge:

+) Finance charge = Monthly rate x Average daily balance =

= 1.25% ×71.9 = $0.9

Using the average daily balance method, the new balance is calculated as following:

+) New balance = Previous balance - Payment + Finance charge + New purchase

= 104 - 80.25 + 0.9 + 0 = 24.65

Final answer:

The average daily balance is calculated by summing the daily balances and dividing by the number of days in the month, resulting in $71.90. The finance charge is then found by multiplying this average balance by the monthly interest rate of 1.25%, giving us approximately $0.90. Finally, the new balance is the original balance plus the finance charge minus any payments made, equaling $24.65.

Explanation:

To calculate the average daily balance, finance charge, and new balance using the average daily balance method, we need to keep track of the account balance every day of the month and then find the average. From June 1st to June 18th the balance is $104, and for these 18 days, the total balance is 18 × $104 = $1872. After a payment of $80.25 is made on June 19th, the new balance is $104 - $80.25 = $23.75. From June 19th to June 30th (12 days), the total balance is 12 × $23.75 = $285. So, the summed balance for the entire month is $1872 + $285 = $2157.

The average daily balance is $2157 divided by the number of days in June, which is 30. Therefore, the average daily balance is $2157 / 30 ≈ $71.90.

The finance charge is calculated by multiplying the average daily balance by the monthly rate. So, the finance charge is $71.90 × 1.25%, or approximately $0.90 (since 1.25% is 0.0125 as a decimal).

The new balance is the original balance plus the finance charge minus any payments made. In this case, it's $104 + $0.90 - $80.25 = $24.65.

Therefore, the average daily balance is $71.90, the finance charge is approximately $0.90, and the new balance on the account will be $24.65.

Answer:

the firm should have sold less output in the local market, and more output on the internet auction site.

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that in order to maximize profits the firm should have sold less output in the local market, and more output on the internet auction site. This is because marginal revenue indicates the additional revenue that will be generated by increasing product sales by one unit. Therefore since the internet auction site's marginal revenue is higher than the local store, it means that selling more units in the internet site will lead to more profit than the local market.

Options:

A) have sold more output in the local market and less at the internet auction site.

B) do nothing until it acquires more information on costs.

C) have sold less output in the local market and more on the internet auction site.

D) sell less in both markets until marginal revenue is zero.

E) sell more in both markets until marginal cost is zero

Answer:

C) have sold less output in the local market and more on the internet auction site.

Explanation:

Price discrimination is not something that most firms can do, since you need to be able to set different prices depending on your customer. Monopolies are generally able to set the price of their products, and many times they are also able to carry out third degree price discrimination (sell their products at different prices depending on the customer).

In this case, if the monopoly wanted to sell more units, then it would nee to lower its prices, but since this specific monopolist is selling all its output, then what it needs to do is shift its sales channel and continue to carry out price discrimination policies since they are very efficient at doing so. Eventually if they want to sell more on the internet, they will probably have to lower their prices a little to increase internet demand, but they have a lot of room to do so. The difference in marginal revenue is quite large (50%), so even if they lower their prices a little, their total revenue should still increase.
