A company which uses austenitic nickel chromium ions to manufacture resistance heating wire is considering a new annealing drawing process to reduce cost. If the new process will cost $1.75 million dollars now, how much must be saved each year to cover the investment in ten years at an interest rate of 12%

Answers

Answer:

Annual deposit= $99,722.29

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future value (FV)= $1,750,000

Number of years (n)= 10

Interest rate (i)= 12%

To calculate the annual deposit, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (1,750,000*0.12) / [(1.12^10) - 1]

A= $99,722.29

Air United, Inc. manufactures two products: missile range instruments and space pressure gauges. During April, 50 range instruments and 200 pressure gauges were produced, and overhead costs of $97,045 were estimated. An analysis of estimated overhead costs reveals the following activities.

Activities Cost Drivers Total Cost
1. Materials handling Number of requisitions $40,000
2. Machine setups Number of setups 21,500
3. Quality inspections Number of inspections 33,000
$94,500
The cost driver volume for each product was as follows:
Cost Drivers Instruments Gauges Total
Number of requisitions 400 600 1,000
Number of setups 200 300 500
Number of inspections 200 400 600

Required:
a. Determine the overhead rate for each activity.
b. Assign the manufacturing overhead costs for April to the two products, using activity-based costing.


Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activities predetermined overhead rate:

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

Materials handling= 40,000 / 1,000= $40 per requisition

Machine setups=  21,500 / 500= $43 per setup

Quality inspections=  33,000 / 600= $55 per inspection

Now, we can allocate overhead costs to each product:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Instruments:

Materials handling= 40*400= $16,000

Machine setups= 43*200= $8,600

Quality inspections=  55*200= $11,000

Total overhead= $35,600

Gauges:

Materials handling= 40*600= $24,000

Machine setups= 43*300= $12,900

Quality inspections=  55*400= $22,000

Total overhead= $58,900

Assume an investor acquired 100% of the voting common stock of an investee on January 1, 2012 in a transaction that qualifies as a business combination. As a result of the acquisition, the investor recognized no goodwill and no bargain purchase gain in the post-acquisition consolidated financial statements (i.e., all of the resulting Acquisition Accounting Premium relates to identifiable net assets).

a. $1,800,000
b. $1,956,000
c. $1,975,200
d. $1,965,600

Answers

Answer:

d. $1,965,600

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of expense appear in the consolidated income statement is as follows:

= Investor + investee + expenses related to purchase

= $1,800,000 + $156,000 +  ($151,200 - $141,600)

= $1,800,000 + $156,000 + $9,600

You just took an Uber from home to campus for the first time and were willing to pay $13 for the trip. It was so much easier than driving yourself that you are willing to pay $21 for the same trip tomorrow. Determine if you have violated the law of demand based on your choices, and why or why not that is the case.

Answers

Answer:

We do not violate the law of demand based on my choices

Explanation:

We do not violate the law of demand because the preference for the product changed after i experienced the good. Law of demand is not violated as the preference / utility derived from Uber changes after one ride. Now the consumer derives more utility from Uber, so the willingness to pay also increases.

Frances Newberry is the payroll accountant for Pack-It Services of Jackson, Arizona. The employees of Pack-It Services are paid semimonthly. An employee, Glen Riley, comes to her on November 6 and requests a pay advance of $1,650, which he will pay back in equal parts on the November 15 and December 15 paychecks. Glen is married with eight withholding allowances and is paid $58,640 per year. He contributes 3 percent of his pay to a 401(k) and has $25 per paycheck deducted for a Section 125 plan.

Required:
Compute his net pay on his November 15 paycheck.

Answers

Answer:

Net pay is $1,201.80

Explanation:

The salary is $58,640 annually

The semi monthly gross salary will be  ($58,640 / 24) = $2,443.33

The deductions will be:

Social security 6.2% = $151.49

Medicare 1.45% = $35.42

3% contribution to 401k = $73.30

Section 125 Plan = $25

Advance repayment ($1,650 / 2) = $825

Taxable Income is $2,443.33 - $73.30 - $25 = $2,345.03

Federal Income Tax 1.6% = $37.52

State Income Tax 4% = $93.80

Net pay is ($2,345.03 - $37.52 - $93.80 - $151.49 - $35.42 - $825) = $1,201.80

Use the information above to answer questions 1-3.
1. What is the impact on profit if the basketball program is dropped?
2. For partial credit on the problem above, you can upload a spreadsheet here. (You will not receive full credit for the problem shown above if you do not upload a spreadsheet.)
3. Assume now that we are able to eliminate $50,000 of the allocated fixed costs if we drop the basketball program. What do you recommend? Write a memo to Mr. Matheny outlining your recommendation and your reasoning. Be sure to consider all of the stakeholders and use an appropriate decision model.

Answers

Answer:

1. Impact on profits:

Contribution Margin =                     $63,000

Less: Traceable Rent = $10,000

Less: Salary of Director = $10,000

Total avoidable fixed expenses = $20,000

Decrease in Profits =                      $43,000

Hence, the profits will reduce by $43,000 if the basketball program is eliminated.

3. If the allocated fixed costs can be reduced by $50,000. The program should be dropped since there will be an increase in profits by $7,000 (50,000 - 43,000). The avoidable costs and revenues should be taken into account for the purpose of this decision. If the avoidable costs are more than the revenues, the line should be dropped else not.

Hence, since after considering the reduction in allocated fixed costs, the avoidable costs are greater than revenues, the program should be dropped

Decorative Concrete produces a concrete overlay for residential and commercial concrete flooring. Customers have complained that one of the products results in excessive cracking. The likelihood the company will incur a loss on this product is probable and the amount of the loss is estimated to be somewhere between $1.1 and $4 million.
1. Should this contingent liability be reported, disclosed in a note only, or both? To be reported To be disclosed Both2. What loss, if any, should Decorative Concrete report in its income statement?3. What liability, if any should Decorative Concrete report in its balance sheet?4. What entry, if any should be recorded in the journal?

Answers

Answer:

Decorative Concrete

1. This contingent liability should be disclosed in a note only.

2. Decorative Concrete should not report any loss in its income statement, yet.

3. Decorative Concrete should not report any liability in its balance sheet, yet.

4. No entry should be recorded in the journal.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated loss = $1.1 and $4 million

Loss is probable but the loss cannot be reasonably estimated

b) Decorative Concrete cannot reasonably estimate the loss that may arise from the contingent liability.  Therefore, it should only disclose the future event in a note to the financial statements.  Accounting rules specify that Decorative Concrete should record this event as a contingent liability in its accounts when it is probable that the future event will occur and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. At that time, a specific amount of loss will be recorded (debit) and a specific liability established (credit) in advance of the settlement.  In this Decorative's case, only one condition is met.

. Suppose this year you buy 5% coupon rate, $100 face value bond for $90 that has 3 years left till maturity. Suppose next year market interest rates decrease to 2% and you decide to sell it your bond that year.a) Calculate the selling price of your bond next year. In another words, what price would make your bond competitive when market yields are at 2.0%?

Answers

Answer:

$105.83

Explanation:

The computation of the selling price of the bond is as follows

Number of coupons remaining = n = 2

Coupon amount = C = 100 × 5% = $5

Maturity amount = FV = $100

Purchase price = P = $90

Selling price = PV of future payments  at 2%

Now

Selling price = S is

= 5 × (P/A,0.02,2) + 100 × (P/F,0.02,2)

= 5 × 1.9416 + 100 × 0.9612

= $105.83

Decisions about pricing strategies should be set in conjunction with other marketing decisions about product design, packaging, branding, distribution, and promotion. All these marketing decisions are interrelated. Prices must be related to the cost of producing the product and prices are usually set somewhere above cost. But price and cost aren't always related. There are three major approaches to pricing strategy: cost-based, demand-based (target costing), and competition-based. Other pricing strategies include skimming price strategy, penetration strategy, everyday low pricing (EDLP), high-low pricing strategy, bundling, psychological pricing, and demand-oriented pricing. Match each scenario to the strategy it best illustrates.

What amount should be included in the financing section of the 2010 statement of cash flows for dividends paid?

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The above is an incomplete question, however, from a similar question values of beginning retained earnings, ending retained earnings were given to compute the dividend paid.

Given that;

Beginning retained earnings = $700 million

Ending retained earnings = $450 million

Net income = $1,516 million

Closing retained earning = Beginning retained earning + Net income - Dividends paid

$450 = $700 + $1,516 - Dividends paid

$450 = $2,216 - Dividends paid

Dividends paid = $1,766

e. A candy store buys $500 worth of chocolates made in Belgium.
f. Boeing produces 5 airplanes but are unable to sell them.

Answers

Answer:

a. No change in GDP.

There will be no change in GDP resulting from this transaction. Resales are considered double counting because the good had already been paid for before and so will inflate GDP.

b. GDP increase by $12,500. U.S. Consumption.

This is a consumption transaction as money is being spent to satisfy the need for education. It will therefore increase GDP by $12,500.

c. No change in GDP.

Intermediate goods to be used in production are not included in GDP to avoid double counting. Only the final value of goods and services are included. This is an intermediate good and so will not be included.

d. Increase in GDP $16,000. Government purchase of goods or services.

Mr. Luong works in a Public University which means that his salary is paid for by the government. This will increase GDP by $16,000 as it represents money spent by Government.

e. Decrease in GDP $500. Net Exports.

As this good was bought from outside the country, it is an import. Imports reduce a country's GDP because they reduce the Net exports. GDP will therefore reduce by $500.

f. Increase in GDP by plane value. Investment.

So long as the goods have already been produced in their final form, they will be part of GDP. They will increase GDP by their value and are a part of Investment.

Answers

Answer

d. the price of potato hips would rise by some amount

Explanation:

If the government places a $2 tax per bag of potato chips on the producers, then the price of potato chips would rise by some amount, but by less than $2. Option (d) is correct.

What do you mean by Tax?

In order to pay for general government services, goods, and activities, local, state, and federal governments must collect mandated payments or charges from citizens and corporations.

While taxes cause deadweight loss, the exact amount depends on a number of factors. The ability of a provider to deliver the desired goods to the customer and the amount that a consumer is ready to spend on a product are two of the most crucial factors. This is an illustration of the economic principle of supply and demand.

The supply curve shows an upward tendency when the price of potatoes rises by $2 tax because more potatoes are supplied. If a non-price element changes, the supply curve shifts to the right.

Therefore, Option (d) is correct.

Precilla Company uses a standard costing system that allows 2 pounds of direct materials for one finished unit of product. During July, the company purchased 40,000 pounds of direct materials for $210,000 and manufactured 12,000 finished units. The standard direct materials cost allowed for the units manufactured is $120,000. The performance report shows that Pricilla has an unfavorable direct materials usage variance of $5,000. Also, the company records any price variance for materials at time of purchase. The actual number of pounds (AQ) of direct materials used to produce July's output was: ___________

a. 20,000 pounds.
b. 25,000 pounds.
c. 12,000 pounds.
d. 40,000 pounds.
e. 24,000 pounds.

Answers

Answer:

actual quantity= 25,000 pounds

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard quantity= 2 pounds per units

Production= 12,000 units

Direct material quantity variance= $5,000 unfavorable

Standard price= 120,000/(2*12,000)= $5

To calculate the actual quantity used in production, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

-5,000 = (24,000 - actual quantity)*5

-5,000 = 120,000 - 5actual quantity

125,000/5 = actual quantity

25,000 = actual quantity

Various Forms of Digital Communication Outlets Question 4(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)[06.05 MC]Excerpt taken from The Historic Rise of Old Hickory by Suzanne B. WilliamsFour major candidates ran in the 1824 election, all under the "Democratic-Republican" name. One of the candidates, Andrew Jackson, was already famous. In the 1780s, he earned the right to practice law and served in various offices of the state government, including senator. He earned the nickname "Old Hickory" for his toughness as a general during the War of 1812 and First Seminole War. Jackson supported slavery and "Indian removal." This earned him support from voters in southern and frontier states. The other three candidates were John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts, Henry Clay of Kentucky, and William Crawford of Georgia. U.S. presidents are elected through the Electoral College. The Founding Fathers worried that Americans were too spread out to learn enough about the candidates. Under the Electoral College, Americans cast their ballot for the popular vote, which chooses the electors for each state. The number of electoral votes each state equals the number of representatives and senators combined. The candidates must win an absolute majority of electoral votes to win the election.In 1824, Andrew Jackson won the popular vote, but he did not win it in each state. Jackson and Adams both won many electoral votes. Jackson won the most with 99. However, a candidate needs an absolute majority of electoral votes to win. In 1824, Jackson needed 131 to win. When there is not majority winner, the election goes to the House of Representatives. This has only happened twice in U.S. history.Even though he won the popular vote and many electoral votes, Andrew Jackson lost the presidency in 1824. John Quincy Adams was the Secretary of State at this time. Henry Clay was the Speaker of the House of Representatives. Henry Clay, receiving the least, was left out. However, as a leader in the House of Representatives, he had influence over the other members. Clay openly hated Jackson and there were rumors that Clay made a deal with Adams in exchange for his support. The House election declared John Quincy Adams president. Soon, he chose Henry Clay to fill the seat he left vacant, Secretary of State. Jackson was shocked and enraged. Although there was no inquiry of possible wrongdoing, Jackson accused Adams and Clay of making a "corrupt bargain."John Quincy Adams was a disappointment as president. Many of his goals created divisions like federal funds for internal improvement. Some states thought that taking federal funds would force them to follow certain rules. They felt this reduced their rights as independent states. Jackson took advantage of issues like this one to gather more support. More Jackson supporters found their way to seats in Congress. He was as a man of the people and said Adams could never understand the common mans concerns.John Quincy Adams ran against Andrew Jackson in the 1828 election. Personal attacks grew even more vicious, but Andrew Jackson appealed to many. He believed government was for the common man. He believed in strict reading of the law and limited internal improvements. He also believed in states rights. Andrew Jackson easily won the 1828 election, winning both the popular vote and a majority of electoral votes. Historians note the sectional nature of the voting. Support for Jackson was concentrated in South while Adams support was mostly in the North. Jackson was so popular because he brought changes to the government. He also wanted to make sure the government was responsible for its actions. Jackson pushed settlement into the frontier. He supported the Indian Removal act. He also defended the spread of slavery. Though his support was heavier in the South, he was determined to keep a unified nation. The rise and presidency of Old Hickory is memorable to Americans today. Which of the following did Andrew Jackson not support? A limited national government Spreading of slavery to the frontier Federal funds for internal improvements A strict interpretation of the U.S. Constitution 4) (Economies of Scale) Suppose a firm has chosen its quantity so that its marginal cost is equal to the market price, and is making positive profits because its revenues exceed its costs.
