Consider an economy with a corn producer, some consumers, and a government. In a given year, the corn producer grows 30 million bushels of corn and the market price for corn is $5 per bushel. Of the 30 million bushels produced, 20 million are sold to consumers, 5 million are stored in inventory, and 5 million are sold to the government to feed the army. The corn producer pays $60 million in wages to consumers and $20 million in taxes to the government. Consumers pay $10 million in taxes to the government, receive $10 million in interest on the government debt, and receive $5 million in Social Security payments from the government. The profits of the corn producer are distributed to consumers.

Required:
a. Calculate GDP using (i) the product approach, (ii) the expenditure approach, and (iii) the income approach.
b. Calculate private disposable income, private sector saving, government saving, national saving, and the government deficit. Is the government budget in deficit or surplus?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. GDP using product approach

There are no intermediate goods inputs. Corn producer grows 30 million bushels of corn and each bushel of corn worth is $5.

GDP = 30 million * $5

GDP = $150 million

GDP using expenditure approach

i) Consumers buy 20 million bushels of corn

Consumption = 20 million * 5

Consumption (C) = $100 million

ii) Corn producer adds 5 million bushels to inventory

Investment = 5 million * $5

Investment (I) = $25 million

iii) Government buys 5 million bushels of corn  

Government spending = 5 million * $5

Government spending (G) = $25 million

GDP = C + I + G

GDP = $100 + $25 + $25  

GDP = $150 million

GDP using income approach

Profit income = $150 million - $60 million - $20 million

Profit income = $70 million

Government income = Taxes paid by the corn producer = $20 million

GDP = $60 million + $70 million + $20 million

GDP = $150 million

b. Private disposable income = GDP + Net factor payments + Government transfers + Interest on the government debt - Total taxes

Private disposable income = $150 million + 0 + $5 million + $10 million - $30 million

Private disposable income = $135 million

 

Private savings = Private disposable income - Consumption

Private savings = $135 million - $100 million

Private savings = $35 million

Government savings = Government tax income - Transfer payments - Interest on the government debt - Government spending

Government savings = $30 million - $5 million - $10 million - $5 million

Government savings = $10 million

National savings = Private savings + Government savings

National savings = $35 million + $10 million

National savings = $45 million

Government budget surplus = Government savings = $10 million

Government deficit = (-) $10 million

Answer 2

The correct amounts of different calculations in an economy with corn producer, consumers and government are as follows,

1. GDP as per product approach will be $150 million.

2. GDP as per the expenditure approach will be $150 million.

3 GDP as per the income approach will be calculated as $150 millions.

4. The net disposable income will be calculated as $135 million.

5. The private sector savings will be calculated as $35 million.

6. The government savings will be $10 million.

7. The National savings will be calculated as $45 million

8. And the government budget surplus is calculated as $10 million.

The calculation of financial status of an economy

The calculation of GDP can be done using the different approaches by using different formulas and putting the given values.

[tex]\rm GDP\ Product\ Approach= \$30\ x\ 5\\\\\rm GDP\ Product\ Approach= \$150\ million[/tex]

Using expenditure approach,

[tex]\rm GDP = \$(100+25+25)\ million\\\\\rm GDP= \$150\ million[/tex]

Using Income approach

[tex]\rm GDP = \$(60+70+20)\ million\\\\\rm GDP = \$150\ million[/tex]

Now calculating private disposable income

[tex]\rm Private\ disposable\ income = GDP\ + Net\ factor\ payments\ + Government\ transfers\ + Interest\ on\ the\ government\ debt\ - Total\ taxes\\\\\rm Private\ disposable\ income = \$(150 + 0 + $5\ + $10\ - $30) \rm million\\\\\rm Private\ Disposable\ Income= \$135\ million[/tex]

Now calculating Private Sector Savings

[tex]\rm Private\ Savings = Private\ Disposable\ Income\ - Consumption\\\\\rm Private\ Savings = \$(135-100)\ million\\\\\rm Private\ Savings= \$35\ million[/tex]

Now calculating government savings,

[tex]\rm Government\ Savings\ = Government\ Tax\ Income\ - Transfer\ Payment\ - Interest\ Government\ Debt\ - Government\ Spending\\\\\rm Government\ Savings\ = \$(30 - $5 - $10 - $5) \rm million\\\\\rm Government\ Savings\ = \$10 million[/tex]

Now calculating National Savings

[tex]\rm National\ savings\ = Private\ savings\ + Government\ savings\\\\\National savings = \$(35 \ + $10) \rm million\\\\National\ savings = \$45\ \rm million[/tex]

Now calculating government deficit\surplus

[tex]\rm Government\ Budget\ Surplus = Government\ Savings\\\\\rm Government\ Budget\ Surplus = \$10 million[/tex]

Hence, the different financial calculations regarding the standings of the economy as on such date are as aforementioned, and it can be concluded that the government budget is in surplus.

A retail store is doing a $50 gift card giveaway by selecting 1 customer from a pool of registered customers. The pool of registered customers has males and females of all ages with 52% of the pool being female and 18% of the pool being over the age of 65. The probability of the winner being female or over age 65 (the union of female and over age 65) is 70%.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Given

[tex]P(Female) = 52\%[/tex]

[tex]P(Age>65) = 18\%[/tex]

Required

Determine [tex]P(Female\ or\ Age>65)[/tex]

The events of being a female and over the age of 65 are non-mutually exclusive events.

We know this because the question says the pool is from all ages.

So, the required probability is calculated using:

[tex]P(A\ or\ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A\ and\ B)[/tex]

In this case, it is:

[tex]P(Female\ or\ Age>65) = P(Female) + P(Age>65) - P(Female\ and\ Age>65)[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]P(Female\ or\ Age>65) = 52\% + 18\% - P(Female\ and\ Age>65)[/tex]

[tex]P(Female\ or\ Age>65) = 70\% - P(Female\ and\ Age>65)[/tex]

Because the pool is from all ages,

[tex]P(Female\ and\ Age>65) > 0\%[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(Female\ and\ Age>65) < 70\%[/tex]

The solution to this question is b. False

December 31, 2019:

Debit Amortization Expense $8,400

Credit Accumulated Amortization - Patent $8,400

To record the amortization expense for the year.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

January 1, 2020 Purchased Patent from Salmon Company = $54,000

Estimated useful life = 10 years

Annual amortization expense - $5,400 ($54,000/10)

b) Carrying amount of Patent on January 1, 2019 = $43,200

Amount spent to successfully defend the patent      24,000

Total value of patent = $67,200

Estimated useful life = 8 years (January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2026)

Annual amortization expense = $8,400 ($67,200/8)

b) The $24,000 spent for the successful defense of the patent will be capitalized.  This means that the carrying balance of the Patent changes from $43,200 to $67,200.  Amortization is calculated based on $67,200 on a straight-line basis for 8 years.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

To calculate the variable and fixed costs, we need to use the following formulas:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Forklift depreciation:

Low 4,000 $3,200

High 15,000 3,200

Depreciation is a fixed cost. It doesn't vary with the number of units produced.

Indirect labor:

Low 4,000 $83,200

High 15,000 147,000

Variable cost per unit= (147,000 - 83,200) / (15,000 - 4,000)

Variable cost per unit= $5.8

Fixed costs= 147,000 - (5.8*15,000)

Fixed costs= $60,000

Fixed costs= 83,200 - (5.8*4,000)

Fixed costs= $60,000

Fuel and oil for forklift:

Low 4,000 $ $3,550

High 16,000 11,360

Variable cost per unit= (11,360 - 3,550) / (16,000 - 4,000)

Variable cost per unit= $0.651

Fixed costs= 11,360 - (0.651*16,000)

Fixed costs= $944

Fixed costs= 3,550 - (0.651*4,000)

Fixed costs= $944

Now, the cost for 11,000 moves:

Depreciation= $3,200

Indirect labor= 60,000 + 5.8*11,000

Indirect labor= $123,800

Fuel and oil for forklift= 944 + 0.651*11,000

Fuel and oil for forklift= $8,105

Total                                    27,350             $1,439,618

Explanation:

Equivalent units of production

Materials = 3,500 x 0% + 21,200 x 100% + 2,650 x 100% = 23,850

Conversion Cost = 3,500 x 20% + 21,200 x 100% + 2,650 x 80% = 24,020

Cost per equivalent units of production

Materials = $636,100 ÷ 23,850 = $26.67

Conversion Cost = $636,100 ÷ 24,020 = $26.48

Total = $26.67 + $26.48 = $53,15

Cost allocated to units transferred and to those still in process

Transferred to Assembly =  24,700 x $53,15 = $1,312,805

Ending WIP = 2,650 x $26.67 + 2,120 x $26.48 = $126,813

A company can purchase component Hfrom 3 potential suppliers. Supplier A charges a fee of $5.50 per component. Supplier B charges $1500 per order plus $2.00 per component ordered. Supplier C charges $4.00 per component,andrequires the buyer to pay for at least 280components (even if the order size is less than 280).

Required:
a. What is the full range of order sizes where each supplier is optimal?
b. The company decided to buy 300 units of component H from supplier A. How much money could the company have saved if it purchased the 300 units from supplier C instead of supplier A?
c. Next week supplier B will be running a 10% off special. If the company needs to purchase 600 units of component H during the special, which supplier should be chosen?

Answers

Answer:

a. The full range of the order sizes where each supplier is optimal is:

Supplier A, from 1 to 280 units

Supplier B, from 1,000 units upwards

Supplier C, from 280 to 1,000

b. The company decided to buy 300 units of component H from supplier A. How much money could the company have saved if it purchased the 300 units from supplier C instead of supplier A?

Savings from purchasing from C instead of from A = $450

c. To purchase 600 units during B's 10% off special:

Supplier C should be chosen.  It enjoys the minimal cost-advantage.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

b) Cost of purchasing 300 units from A = $1,650 ($5.50 * 300)

Cost of purchasing 300 units from C = $1,200 ($4.00 * 300)

Savings from purchasing from C = $450 ($1,650 - $1,200)

c) 10% off special by B.  This reduces its price from $2 to $1.80 plus the $1,500 per order

Cost of purchasing 600 units from B during the special discount offer =

$1,500 + ($1.80 * 600) = $2,580

Cost of purchasing 600 units from A during B's special discount offer =

$5.50 * 600  = $3,300

Cost of purchasing 600 units from C during B's special discount offer =

$4 * 600 = $2,400

Range of order sizes:

Supplier A, from 1 to 280 units: Above 280 units, Supplier C will be preferred in terms of total cost.

Supplier B, from 1,000 units upwards: This will reduce the unit cost to $3.50 or below.

Supplier C, from 280 to 1,000: Below 280 units, Supplier A performs better than C.

Smith Brothers, a furniture manufacturer based in North Carolina, has tie-ups with raw material suppliers and shipping companies who provide Smith Brothers a uniform pricing option across the United States.

Answers

Answer:

$1,800,000

Explanation:

Calculation for what Sheridan Company's cost of goods manufactured for the year is

First step is to calculate Direct material used

Direct material used = 300,000 + 950,000 - 480,000

Direct material used= 770,000

Now let calculate cost of goods manufactured for the year using this formula

Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year= Direct Material Used + Direct Labor + Manufacturing Overhead + Opening Work - Closing Work

Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year= 770,000 + 850,000 + 820,000 + 1,080,000 - 900,000

Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year= $1,800,000

Therefore Sheridan Company's cost of goods manufactured for the year is $1,800,000

Kristin Company sells 300 units of its products for $20 each to Logan Inc. for cash. Kristin allows Logan to return any unused product within 30 days and receive a full refund. The cost of each product is $12. To determine the transaction price, Kristin decides that the approach that is most predictive of the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled is the probability-weighted amount. Using the probability-weighted amount, Kristin estimates that (1) 10 products will be returned and (2) the returned products are expected to be resold at a profit. Indicate the amount of (a) net sales, (b) estimated liability for refunds, and (c) cost of goods sold that Kristen should report in its financial statements (assume that none of the products have been returned at the financial statement date).

Answers

Answer:

a. Net Sales = (300 units - 10 units return) * $20 each

Net Sales = 290 units * $20 each

Net Sales = $5,800

b. Liability for refunds = (10 units expected to be returned * $20 each)

Liability for refunds = $200

c. Cost of Goods Sold = (300 units - 10 return) * $12 per unit

Cost of Goods Sold = 290 units * $12 per unit

Cost of Goods Sold = $3,480

I do the best I know how. No bean counter knows enough about my responsibilities to be of any use to​ me." Why are accountants valuable to the organization? What responsibilities do managers have in understanding financial information?

Answers

Answer: Accountants play major role in firms in handling financial records and auditing. Managers know financial information based on either background knowledge or learning on the job

Explanation:

The accountants are valuable to the organization because they monitor the monetary information that concerns the firm, they handle how cash come in and keep track of how they are spent, all these makes them valuable even to the extent of auditing information as regarding the firm. Managers might understand financial information either based on how they monitor what occurs in the organization or what they learnt in from college. But it's unsafe for the managers to handle financial situation without the aid of a professional accountant.

At the beginning of December, Altro Corporation had $26,000 of raw materials on hand. During the month, the Corporation purchased an additional $76,000 of raw materials. During December, $72,000 of raw materials were requisitioned from the storeroom for use in production. The credits entered in the Raw Materials account during the month of December total:_________a. $26,000b. $102,000c. $76,000d. $72,000

Answers

Answer:

Insurance company A and B both are life insurance companies that pay claims to a designated beneficiary upon death of an insured life. Company A insures 10,000 lives and expects to receive 525 claims this year. Company B insures 8,700 lives and expects to receive 410 claims this year. The actual number of claims for company A will range 500 < 550. The actual number of claims for company B will range from 369 < 451. Who faces the most objective risk

Answers

Answer:

Company B will faces the most objective risk

Explanation:

Company A: As Company A, insures 10,000 lives and expects to receive 525 claims this year.

They will end up saving 947,500,000 and paying 52,500,000 (525 claims*100,000), considering each claim value to be 100,000. Here goes the calculation:

10,000 x 100,000 = 1,000,000,000

1,000,000,000 - 52,500,000 = 947,500,000.

Company B: As Company B, insures 8,700 lives and expects 410 claims this year.

They will end up saving 829,000,000 and paying 41,000,000 (410 claims x 100,000), considering each claim value to be 100,000. Here goes the calculation:

8700 x 100,000 = 870,000,000

870,000,000 - 41,000,000 = 829,000,000.

Hence, the margin of profit is good for company A. Company B will have the face the risk more.

The following errors took place in journalizing and posting transactions:

Insurance of $18,800 paid for the current year was recorded as a debit to Insurance Expense and a credit to Prepaid Insurance. Dividends of $18,000 were recorded as a debit to Wages Expense and a credit to Cash. Journalize the entries to correct the errors.

Answers

Answer:

Journal 1

Debit : Prepaid Expense $37,600

Credit : Cash $18,800

Credit : Insurance Expense $18,800

Journal 2

Debit : Dividends $18,000

Credit : Wages $18,000

Explanation:

Journal 1

The first error has to be corrected by debiting the Prepaid Expenses by twice the amount paid to cancel the effect of a credit entry made to that account. Cash is credited to show the correct credit entry that was supposed to be made. Insurance expense is credited to cancel the debit entry made to this account in error.

Journal 2

The error made is called error of principle. This is were the transaction is recorded in the wrong class of accounts. Simply, Debit the Dividends and credit the Wages Account to record and reverse the error out of the Wages Account into the Dividends Account.

Answers

Answer:

a. $270,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total amount of working capital is shown below:

As we know that

working capital = Current asset - current liabilities

where,

Current asset = Cash + prepaid insurance + account receivable + inventory

= $130,000 + $60,000 + $100,000 + $140,000

= $430,000

And, the current liabilities is

= Account payable + salaries payable

= $140,000 + $20,000

= $160,000

So the working capital is

= $430,000 - $160,000

= $270,000

A television assembly plant has a variable production output ranging from 200 sets to 850 sets a day. The building for both manufacturing and warehousing has an area of 80,000 square feet and is leased from a real estate firm at an annual rate of $7.95 per square foot. It employs 250 people and their wage cost is, in large part, a function of the number of televisions produced.

Guay Corp., a start-up company, provided services that were acceptable to its customers and billed those customers for $400,000 in 2015. However, Guay collected only $280,000 cash in 2015, and the remaining $120,000 of 2015 revenues were collected in 2016. Guay employees earned $200,000 in 2015 wages that were not paid until the first week of 2016. How much net income does Guay report for 2015?

Answers

Answer:

$200,000

Explanation:

Here, in the solution the tax effects are ignored as tax rate is not provided.

Since accrual basis is the acceptable basis, we have:

All the revenues and expenses are to be recognised in the period it belongs to, and not when the actual cash payment is received or made.

Total revenue earned in 2015 = $400,000

Total expense (Wages of employees) for 2015 = $200,000

Therefore, net income for 2015 = $400,000 - $200,000 = $200,000

Note: It is of no relevance that when actual cash was realised from debtors and when actual payment was made to employees.
