Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).

Absorption costing:

Unitary fixed overhead= 940,000/23,000= $40.87

Unitary production cost= 180 + 340 + 51 +40.87

Unitary production cost= $610.87

Variable costing:

Unitary production cost= 180 + 340 + 51

Unitary production cost=$571

Answer 2

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production and variable costs includes all variable production costs.

What are absorption costs?

Absorption costs, also known as absorption costs, are a management calculation method that combines both highly flexible and adjusted cost to produce a particular product.

Knowing the full cost of production per unit enables manufacturers to price their products.

Calculation of Production costs assuming that the method of Absorption costing:

[tex]\rm\,Unitary \;Fixed \;Overhead= \dfrac{\$940,000}{23,000}\\\\Unitary \;Fixed \;Overhead== \$40.87 \;per \;unit\\\\Unitary \;Production \;Cost= (180 + 340 + 51 +40.87)\\\\Unitary \; Production \;Cost= \$610.87[/tex]

b) Calculation of production costs by variable costing method:

[tex]\rm\,Unitary \; Production \;Cost= (\$180 +\$340 + \$51)\\\\Unitary \;Production \;Cost=\$571[/tex]

Hence, The unit product cost for one gamelan by applying absorption costing is $610.87 and by variable costing is $571.

On June 30, 2021, Georgia-Atlantic, Inc. leased warehouse equipment from IC Leasing Corporation. The lease agreement calls for Georgia-Atlantic to make semiannual lease payments of $562,907 over a three-year lease term, payable each June 30 and December 31, with the first payment at June 30, 2021. Georgia-Atlantic's incremental borrowing rate is 10%, the same rate IC uses to calculate lease payment amounts. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis at the end of each fiscal year. The fair value of the equipment is $3 million.

Required:
a. Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2021 that Georgia-Atlantic uses to record the right-of-use asset and lease liability.
b. What pretax amounts related to the lease would Georgia-Atlantic report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021

Answers

Answer:

1. $3,000,000

2. Liability $1,996,041

Asset$2,500,000

Explanation:

1. Calculation to Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2021

Present value of lease payments will be calculated as : $562,907 × 5.32948

(Present value of an annuity due of $1:

n = 6, i = 5% is 5.32948)

Present value of lease payments = $3,000,000

Therefore the Present value of lease payments will be $3,000,000

2. Calculation to Determine the pretax amounts related to the lease that Georgia-Atlantic would report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021

Liability at December 31, 2021

Initial balance, June 30, 2021 3,000,000

June 30, 2021 Reduction(562,907)

Dec. 31, 2021 reduction (441052)

[562,907-(3,000,000-562,907)*5%]

December 31, 2021 NET LIABILITY $1,996,041

ASSETS at December 31, 2021

Initial balance, June 30, 2021 3,000,000

Accumulated depreciation at Dec. 31, 2021 (500,000)

(3000000/3*1/2)

December 31, 2021 ASSETS $2,500,000

Therefore the pretax amounts related to the lease that Georgia-Atlantic would report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021 will be : Liability $1,996,041

Answers

Answer:

a. In consideration for her one-half interest in their personal residence, Kirby will transfer to Nell stock with a value of $200,000 and $50,000 of cash. Kirby's cost of the stock was $150,000, and the value of the personal residence is $500,000. They purchased the residence three years ago for $300,000.

Nell's basis for the stock is $150,000

Kirby's basis in the house is $300,000

The transfer of property due to divorce is nontaxable. The $50,000 that Nell receives is generally considered alimony (for tax purposes).

b. Nell will receive $1,000 per month for 120 months. If she dies before receiving all 120 payments, the remaining payments will be made to her estate.

The payments NOT QUALIFY as alimony and are EXCLUDED FROM Nell's gross income as they are received.

The TC&JA changed alimony rules and made them not deductible for the spouse that gives it, and not taxable for the spouse that receives it. It now works in a similar manner than child support. It doesn't make any difference now if payments are alimony or not.

c. Nell is to have custody of their 12-year-old son, Bobby. She is to receive $1,200 per month until Bobby (1) dies or (2) attains age 21 (whichever occurs first). After either of these events occurs, Nell will receive only $300 per month for the remainder of her life.

$300 per month is alimony that is EXCLUDED FROM Nell's gross income, and the remaining $900 per month is considered​ CHILD SUPPORT and is NONTAXABLE to Nell.

Again, the TC&JA changed the rules, so alimony received is not taxable.

Luke offered to sell his farm to Kent at $75,000, an offer which Kent declined. A week later, Luke offered to sell the farm for $65,000, stating that it was the final offer, it was valid for one month, and that he would not alter it. Two days later, Kent replied by saying that he was willing to pay $60,000 for the farm. A week after Luke received Kent's offer, Luke declined it. Ten days after that, Kent agreed to buy the farm for $65,000, but Luke refused to sell the farm. Kent decided to sue Luke for a breach of contract. The judge ruled in favor of Luke. Which one of the following is the reason for the ruling in Luke's favor?

a. Luke's original offer of $75,000 is still valid, even though rejected.
b. Kent acted in an incompetent manner with regards to the offer.
c. Kent's acceptance was past the set time period in the offer.
d. Kent's counteroffer of $60,000 had rendered the offer for $65,000 invalid.

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Kent's counteroffer of $60,000 had rendered the offer for $65,000 invalid

Reason- Whenever a counteroffer is made, it voids the earlier offers That's because real estate laws in all 50 states say that a seller who makes a written counteroffer automatically renders the buyer's original offer null and void.

Answers

Answer:

1. Gross Pay = Salary + Bonus

= (13,600 * 12) + (15% * (13,600 * 12))

= 163,200 + 24,480

= $187,680

2.Wallace 2016 Payroll = Gross Pay - Deductions

Deductions

= FICA-Social security tax + FICA-Medicare tax + Federal income tax + State income tax + Charity Fund contribution + Life insurance contribution

= (6.2% x 117,000) +  (1.45% x 187,680) + {(952 x 12) + 3,672} + {(150 x 12) + 90} + (3% x 187,680) + (50 x 12)

= 7,254 + 2,721.36 + 15,096 + 1,890 + 5,630.40 + 600

= $33,191.76

Lemon Corporation generated $324,600 of income from ordinary business operations. It also sold several assets during the year. Compute Lemon’s taxable income under each of the following alternative assumptions about the tax consequences of the asset sales.

a. Lemon recognized a $5,500 capital gain and a $7,400 net Section 1231 loss.
b. Lemon recognized a $6,500 capital loss and a $4,700 net Section 1231 gain.
c. Lemon recognized a $2,500 capital gain, a $3,900 capital loss, and a $3,000 net Section 1231 gain.
d.Lemon recognized $4,000 of depreciation recapture, a $2,000 Section 1231 gain, and a $4,200 Section 1231 loss.

Answers

Answer:

a. Lemon’s taxable income = $322,700

b. Lemon’s taxable income = $324,600

c. Lemon’s taxable income = $326,200

d. Lemon’s taxable income = $326,400

Explanation:

Before the questions are answered, the provisions of section 1231 of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules are quoted as follows:

- If you have a net section 1231 loss, it is an ordinary loss.

- If you have a net section 1231 gain, it is ordinary income up to the amount of your unrecaptured section 1231 losses from previous years. The rest, if any, is a long-term capital gain.

Therefore, net section 1231 loss which is an ordinary loss is deducted from ordinary business operations to obtain taxable income.

Also, we describe the following:

Taxable income can be described as the amount of income that is employed to calculated the amount of tax that is payable to the government by an individual or a company in a particular tax year. It is obtained after making all required additions and allowable deductions.

Capital gain can be described as an increase in the value of a capital asset which is realized when the asset is sold. For tax purposes, capital gain is added to the income from ordinary business operations to obtain taxable income.

Capital loss can be described as a decrease in the value of a capital asset which is recognised when the asset is sold. For tax purposes, capital loss is deducted from the income from ordinary business operations to obtain taxable income.

We therefore proceed as follows:

a. Lemon recognized a $5,500 capital gain and a $7,400 net Section 1231 loss.

From the question, we have the following:

Income from ordinary business operations = $324,600

Capital gain recognised = $5,500

Net Section 1231 loss recognised = $7,400

Based on the explanation provided above, Lemon’s taxable income under this scenario is therefore calculated as follows:

Lemon’s taxable income = Income from ordinary business operations + Capital gain recognised - Net Section 1231 loss recognised = $324,600 + $5,500 - $7,400 = $322,700

b. Lemon recognized a $6,500 capital loss and a $4,700 net Section 1231 gain.

From the question, there is nothing related past five years stated and it is therefore assumed that there is no net section 1231 loss in the past five years.

As result, the total of $4,700 net Section 1231 gain is regarded as a capital gain and it is set-off against the $6,500 capital loss as follows to obtain the non-deductible expense as follows:

Non-deductible expense = $6,500 - $4,700 = $1,800

Since there is nothing deductible again, Lemon’s taxable income under this scenario is therefore equal to the income from ordinary business operations of $324,600. That is,

Lemon’s taxable income = $324,600

c. Lemon recognized a $2,500 capital gain, a $3,900 capital loss, and a $3,000 net Section 1231 gain.

Since no net section 1231 loss in the past five years is indicated here, the $3,000 net Section 1231 gain will be treated as a long-term capital gain.

Based on the provisions of section 1231 of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules quoted above, non-deductible expense is calculated by deducting the $3,900 capital loss to the extent of the $2,500 capital gain as follows:

Non-deductible expense = $3,900 - $2,500 = $1,400

Since the $3,000 net Section 1231 gain has to be treated as a long-term capital gain, the $1,400 will be deducted from it obtain the net capital gain as follows:

Net capital gain = $3000 - $1400 = $1600

Lemon’s taxable income under this scenario is therefore calculated by adding the $1,600 net capital gain to the $324,600 income from ordinary business operations as follows:

Lemon’s taxable income = $324,600 + $1600 = $326,200

d. Lemon recognized $4,000 of depreciation recapture, a $2,000 Section 1231 gain, and a $4,200 Section 1231 loss.

We have the following:

Section 1231 loss = $4,200

Section 1231 gain = $2,000

Therefore, we have:

Net section 1231 loss = Section 1231 loss - Section 1231 gain = $4,200 - 2,000 = $2,200

This net section 1231 loss of $2,200 is therefore treated as ordinary loss as already stated in the provisions of section 1231 of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules quoted above and deducted from the $324,600 income from ordinary business operations.

In addition, the depreciation recapture of $4,000 will be treated as ordinary income and it will be added to the $324,600 income from ordinary business operations.

Lemon’s taxable income under this scenario is therefore calculated as follows:

Lemon’s taxable income = Income from ordinary business operations + Depreciation recapture - Net section 1231 loss = $324,600 + $4,000 - $2,200 = $326,400

materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680

conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600

b. cost per EU:

materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05

conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05

c. units started and completed during April = 23,700

d. no, he didn't do anything, When a company uses the weighted average process costing method, the cost of beginning WIP is used to determine the cost per equivalent unit. On the other hand, FIFO process costing method doesn't, it only considers costs incurred during the month to calculate cost per equivalent unit.

Explanation:

beginning WIP 5,700 $15,276

materials, $10,545

conversion cost, $4,731

units started 34,100

costs added during the month = $96,248

materials, $64,649

conversion cost, $31,599

units transferred out 29,400 $91,140

ending WIP 10,400 $20,384

materials 70% = 7,280 EU

conversion 50% = 5,200 EU

EU:

materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680

conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600

total cost for materials = $64,649 + $10,545 = $75,194

total cost for conversion = $31,599 + $4,731 = $36,330

cost per EU:

materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05

conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05

units started and completed during April = 29,400 - 5,700 = 23,700

2021 21 70 80 6

Using a method similar to that used to calculate the consumer price index, the percentage change in the overall price level is_____________ . (Note: Use 2020 as the base year, and fix the basket at 2 karaoke machines and 6 CDs.) Using a method similar to that used to calculate the GDP deflator, the percentage change of the overall price level is_____________ . (Note: Again, use 2020 as the base year.) Which of the following statements is correct? Check all that apply.

a. The inflation rate in 2021 is not the same using the two methods.
b. The CPI allows the basket of goods and services to change.
c. The GDP deflator holds the basket of goods and services constant.

Answers

Answer:

The inflation rate is different using the two methods as the rate of inflation calculated by the CPI holds basket of goods and services constant while the GDP deflator allows it to change.

Explanation:

i. Value of market basket of the good in 2020 = ($50*2) + ($5*6) = $130  

Value of market basket of the good in 2021 = ($70*2) + ($6*6) = $176

CPI in 2020 = ($130 / $130) * 100 = 100

CPI in 2021 = ($176 / $130) * 100 = 135.38  

Thus, The percentage change in overall price level is = [(135.38 - 100) / 100) * 100 = 35.38%

ii. Nominal GDP in 2020 = ($50 * 20) + ($5 * 60) = $1300

Nominal GDP in 2021 = ($70 * 21) + ($6 * 80) = $1950

Real GDP in 2020 = ($50 * 20) + ($5 * 60) = $1300

Real GDP in 2021 = ($50 * 21) + ($5 * 80) = $1450

GDP deflator in 2020 = (Nominal GDP in 2107 / Nominal GDP in 2107) * 100 = ($1300 / $1300) * 100 = 100

GDP deflator in 2021 = (Nominal GDP in 2108 / Nominal GDP in 2108) * 100 = ($1950 / $1450) * 100 = 134.48

Thus, the percentage change in overall price level is = [(134.48 - 100) / 100) * 100 = 34.48%

an incentive.
a price floor.
a price ceiling.
an elastic service.

Answers

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

The correct answer to this question is the price floor.

The Price floor is the lowest amount that is imposed by the government or group-imposed lowest price limit for a product or service. The government uses the price floor to keep prices at a certain level from going to low. So price floors for workers set by the government that the employer should not pay less than the set amount.

while other options are not correct because::

The price ceiling is the high amount set by the government or the by other groups for a product or service.

An incentive is an amount or something that can be given to employees or someone for motivation or encouraging them to do something.  

An elastic service is given by amazon to develop and run the application with different tools etc.

Yesterday, Casey received a cable company ad for bundled TV, telephone, and Internet service that cost appreciably more than what she is currently paying. At the same time, she received a notice from her utility company that summer rates would be increasing. Her schoolbooks are costing almost twice what they cost last year, and yesterday, gasoline cost her 30 cents more per gallon than it did last week. As she ponders the situation, she can't help but wonder how prices could be rising when so many people have lost their jobs and are cutting back on expenditures. She is certain that this situation characterizes her economics professor's description of stagflation.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

It is true that her situation characterizes what her economics professor's mentioned on stagflation.

She experienced high internet cost more than she is paying, she was also notified on an increase in the utility summer rates, increase in the cost of her schoolbooks, and gasoline all point to what stagflation is.

Stagflation is detected when a nation experiences slow economic growth obvious with an increase in the cost of goods, which means a reduction in purchasing power as Casey experienced. When companies want to still be running their business, they will increase the cost of their services as there are fewer goods available and the currency weakened.

The company also estimated $466,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead expenses for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $3.00 per direct labor-hour. Logan's actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $713,400 and its actual total direct labor was 41,000 hours.
Required:
Compute the company's pre-determined overhead rate for the year.

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.65 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated direct labor hours= 40,000

Estimated fixed overhead= $466,000

Estimated variable overhead rate= $3.00 per direct labor-hour.

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (466,000/40,000) + 3

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.65 per direct labor hour

On December 1, year 1, Lester Company issued at 103, four hundred of its 9%, $1,000 bonds. Attached to each bond was one detachable stock warrant entitling the holder to purchase 10 shares of Lester's common stock. On December 1, year 1, the market value of the bonds, without the stock warrants, was 95, and the market value of each stock purchase warrant was $50. The amount of the proceeds from the issuance that should be accounted for as the initial carrying value of the bonds payable would be:______

Answers

Answer:

Lester Company

The amount of the proceeds from the issuance that should be accounted for as the initial carrying value of the bonds payable would be:______

c. $400,000.

Explanation:

Bonds issued at 103, 9% $1,000

Number of bonds issued = 400

Face value of bonds = $1,000 * 400 = $400,000

Proceeds from Bonds = $1,030 * 400 = $412,000

Premium from bonds issue = $12,000 ($412,000 - 400,000)

Carrying amount = $400,000

$400,000 is the bonds payable at maturity.  The $12,000 bonds premium will be amortized with the interest expense.  This implies that for the life of the bonds, part of the $12,000 will be deducted from the annual interest expense.
