Required:
Using ABC, compute the total cost per case for each product type if the direct labor and direct materials cost is $6 per case of Extra Fine and $5 per case of Family Style.

Answers

Answer:

Extra Fine= $26

Family Style= $12.98

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activities rate for each department and support:

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

Department 1:

Mixing= 4,500/1,500= $3 per machine hour

Cooking= 11,250/1,500= $7.5 per machine hour

Product testing= 112,500/600= $187.5 per batch

Department 2:

Machine calibration= 250,000/400= $625 per production run

Labeling= 12,000/120,000= $0.1 per cases of output

Defects= 6,000/120,000= $0.05 per cases of output

Support:

Recipe formulation= 90,000/45= $2,000 per focus group

Heat, lights, and water= 27,000/1,500= $18 per machine hour

Materials handling= 65,000/8= $8,125 per container types

Now, we can allocate overhead to each product:

Extra Fine:

Department 1:

Mixing= 3*500= $1,500

Cooking= 7.5*500= $3,750

Product testing= 187.5*200= $37,500

Department 2:

Machine calibration= 625*200= 125,000

Labeling= 0.1*20,000= 2,000

Defects= 0.05*20,000= 1,000

Support:

Recipe formulation= 2,000*30= 60,000

Heat, lights, and water= 18*500= 9,000

Materials handling= 8,125*5= 40,625

Total allocated overhead= $280,375

Unitary cost= 280,375/20,000= $14

Family Style:

Department 1:

Mixing= 3*1,000= $3,000

Cooking= 7.5*1,000= $7,500

Product testing= 187.5*400= $75,000

Department 2:

Machine calibration= 625*200= 125,000

Labeling= 0.1*100,000= 10,000

Defects= 0.05*20,000= 5,000

Support:

Recipe formulation= 2,000*15= 30,000

Heat, lights, and water= 18*1,000= 18,000

Materials handling= 8,125*3= 24,375

Total allocated overhead= $297,875

Unitary cost= 297,875/100,000= $2.98

Finally, the total unitary cost:

Extra Fine= 6 + 6 + 14= $26

Family Style= 5 + 5 + 2.98= $12.98

b. $14,500.
c. $19,000.
d. $20,500.

Answers

Answer:

a. $13,000

Explanation:

Calculation for what royalty revenue should be

First step is to find the estimated amount for the second half of the year

Royalties for the second half =

15%*$30,000

Royalties for the second half= $4,500

Now let Compute for the total royalty revenue

Total royalty revenue for 20X5=$8,500+$4,500

Total royalty revenue for 20X5=$13,000

Therefore the royalty revenue should be $13,000

Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $64,000 and $12,000, respectively. In addition to their salaries, they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $500 from corporate bonds. Marc and Michelle also paid $2,500 of qualifying moving expenses, and Marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $1,500. Marc and Michelle have a 10-year-old son, Matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, Marc and Michelle are allowed to claim a $1,000 child tax credit for Matthew. Marc and Michelle paid $6,000 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $5,500 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the course of the year.

a) What is Marc and Michelle’s gross income?

b) What is Marc and Michelle’s adjusted gross income?

c) What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle’s deductions from AGI?

f) Complete the first two pages of Marc and Michelle’s Form 1040 (use 2015 forms if 2016 forms are unavailable).

Answers

Answer:

A) $76500

B) $72500

C) $24750

D) tax refund of $260

Explanation:

A) calculate Marc and Michelle's gross income

Marc salary = $64000

Michelle's salary = $12000

interest from corporate bond = $ 500

Hence gross income = 64000 + 12000 + 500 = $76500

B) Calculate Marc and Michelle's Adjusted gross income

Gross income = $76500

qualifying moving expenditure = $2500

Alimony paid to previous spouse = $1500

adjusted gross income = 76500 - 2500 - 1500 = $72500

C) Calculate the total amount of Marc and Michelle's deductions from AGI

Standard deduction = $12600

itemized deduction = $6000

personal and dependency allowance = $12150

To calculate the Deductions from AGI we have to add the personal and dependency allowance to the standard deduction ( higher value between standard deduction and itemized deduction )

= 12600 + 12150 = $24750

D ) calculate Marc and Michelle's taxable income

Adjusted gross income = $72500

deduction from itemized deduction = $24750

taxable income = 72500 - 24750 = $47750

E) Determine if Marc and Michelle's taxes payable or refund due for the year

Tax rate schedules :

between $18451 to $79000 : tax rate = $1845 + 15% of income over $18450

Taxable income = $47750

Tax liability = 1845 + (47750 - 18450) * 15% = $6240

child tax credit = $1000

prepayment of taxes = $5500

Tax refund = tax liability - child tax - prepayment of taxes

6240 - 1000 - 5500 = $260

hence there will be a tax return of $260

Firms often seek to borrow money to expand their capital stock, and the price they pay for the money is the interest rate. What happens to quantity of money demanded if the interest rate increases

Answers

Answer:

When interest rate rises, the quantity of money demanded reduces

Explanation:

As interest rate increases firms seeking to borrow money for capital stock expansion are likely not going to go ahead with it. The reason is simply because, interest rate and money demanded have an inverse relationship. As interest rate rises money demanded falls because it means that for any amount of money borrowed the interest rate attached to it is higher making the cost of borrowing heavier on the borrower.

A diet is to contain at least 3640 mg vitamin C, 2190 mg Calcium, and 2170 calories every day. Two foods, a dairy-based meal and a vegan option are to fulfill these requirements. Each ounce of the dairy-based meal provides 40 mg vitamin C, 30 mg Calcium, and 10 calories. Each ounce of the vegan option provides 60 mg vitamin C, 30 mg Calcium, and 50 calories. If the dairy-based meal costs $0.21 per ounce and the vegan option costs $0.27 per ounce.

Required:
a. How many ounces of each food should be purchased to minimize costs?
b. What is that minimum cost (per day)?

Answers

Answer:

(A) 73 ounces of diary-based meal and 28.8 ounces of the vegan option.

(B) The minimum cost per day is [73 × 0.21] + [28.8 × 0.27] = 15.33 + 7.776 = $23.106

Explanation:

First thing to note is that the dairy-based meal costs less than the vegan option. In otherwords, if you're to minimize cost, you should purchase as many ounces of dairy-based meal as possible. This is the first mindset or step.

What the diet should contain everyday:

3640mg - Vitamin C

2190mg - Calcium

2170 - Calories

DAIRY BASED:

(40 × 91 = 3640), (30 × 73 = 2190), (10 × 217 = 2170)

VEGAN OPTION:

(60 × 60.67 = 3640), (30 × 73 = 2190), (50 × 43.4 = 2170)

Getting 73 ounces of dairy-based meal, you have

(40 × 73), (30 × 73), (10 × 73) = 2920mg, 2190mg, 730 calories.

You have left 720mg of Vitamin C and 1440 calories to obtain from the Vegan Option.

(60 × 12 = 720), (30 × 0 = 0), (50 × 28.8 = 1440)

The highest quantity needed here is 28.8 ounces of calories from the vegan option, hence 28.8 ounces of the vegan meal should be purchased. There will be excesses of Vitamin C and Calcium but that is necessary in order to purchase the stipulated minimum amount of each nutrient.

The minimum cost per day will now be [73 × 0.21] + [28.8 × 0.27] = 15.33 + 7.776 = $23.106

Mark M. Upp has just been fired as the university book store manager for setting prices too low (only 20% above suggested retail). He is considering opening a competing bookstore near the campus, and he has begun an analysis of the situation. There are two possible sites under consideration. One is relatively small, while the other is large. If he opens at Site 1 and demand is good, he will generate a profit of $50,000. If demand is low, he will lose $10,000. If he opens at Site 2 and demand is high he will generate a profit of $80,000, but he will lose $30,000 if demand is low. He also has decided that he will open at one of these sites. He believes that there is a 50% chance that demand will be high. He assigns the following utilities to the different profits:
U = 50,000 = ? U(-10,000) = 0.22
U = 80,000 = 1 U(-30,000) = 0
For what value of utility for $50,000, U(50000), will Mark be indifferent between the two alternatives?

Answers

Answer:

The utility of Mark for getting a 50,000 profit should be of 0.78 to make both Site option indifferent.

Explanation:

To be indifferent between the two sites the utility of Site 1 should match the utility of Site 2

Site 2:

weighted Utility of good demand  +

weighted Utility of low demand:

50% x 1 + 50% 0 = 0.5

Site 1

50% of Ux + 50% 0.22

This shold match 0.50 to be indifferent

0.5Ux + 0.11 = 0.50

Ux = (0.50 - 0.11) / 0.5 = 0.39/0.50 = 0.78

a. Recorded jobs completed on account and sent Invoices to customers.

Account to be Debited ⇒ 2. Accounts Receivable

Account to be Credited ⇒ 11. Fees Earned

The fees are to be credited as it is revenue. The amount will be debited to Accounts receivables because the customers owe the company.

b. Received an invoice for truck expense to be paid in February.

Account to be Debited ⇒ 15. Truck Expense

Account to be Credited ⇒ 8. Accounts Payable

This is an expense so it is debited as expenses are debited when they increase. As it is to be paid in future, it is a liability and will be credited to Payables.

c. Paid utilities expense

Account to be Debited ⇒ 14. Utilities Expense

Account to be Credited ⇒ 1. Cash

As explained, this is an expense and will have to be debited. It was paid with cash which will reduce the cash balance so Cash should be credited.

d.  Received cash from customers on account

Account to be Debited ⇒ 1. Cash

Account to be Credited ⇒ 2. Accounts Receivable

Debtors are paying the company cash which will increase the cash balance so Cash is debited. The Receivables will be credited to reflect that they are decreasing from the debt settlement.

e. Paid Employees Wages

Account to be Debited ⇒ 12. Wages Expense

Account to be Credited ⇒ 1. Cash

As explained, this is an expense and will have to be debited. It was paid with cash which will reduce the cash balance so Cash should be credited.

f. Withdrew cash for personal use.

Account to be Debited ⇒ 10. Merry Walker, Drawing

Account to be Credited ⇒ 1. Cash

The owner withdrew cash for personal use and so this is sent to the Drawings account. It is debited to reflect that it is reducing capital. Cash will be credited as it is decreasing.

B. Connors gave the seller a noninterest-bearing note. The note required payment of $27,000 one year from date of purchase. The fair value of the equipment is not determinable. An interest rate of 10% properly reflects the time value of money in this situation.
C. Connors traded in old equipment that had a book value of $6,000 (original cost of $14,000 and accumulated depreciation of $8,000) and paid cash of $22,000. The old equipment had a fair value of $2,500 on the date of the exchange. The exchange has commercial substance.
D. Connors issued 1,000 shares of its nopar common stock in exchange for the equipment. The market value of the common stock was not determinable. The equipment could have been purchased for $24,000 in cash.
Required:
For each of the above situations, prepare the journal entry required to record the acquisition of the equipment.

Table 1 shows the financial position of Bank Uno once $ 3375.00 has been deposited. Assume that the required reserve ratio is 5.00 %, that banks do not keep excess reserves, and that all the money loaned out from Bank Uno is deposited into Bank Duo (whose loans go to other banks not shown here). Once the lending and depositing process is complete, what will the accounts look like in Tables 2 and 3? Specify all answers to two decimal places. Table 1. Bank Uno's Initial T-Account Assets Liabilities Reserves: $3375.00 Deposits: $3375.00 Table 2. Bank Uno's T-Account After Loans Assets Liabilities Reserves: ? Deposits: ? Loans: ? Table 3.

What are Bank Uno's deposits in Table 2? $ What are Bank Uno's reserves in Table 2? $ What are Bank Duo's loans in Table 3? $ What are Bank Uno's loans in Table 2? $

Answers

Answer:

(a) Bank Uno's deposits in Table 2 = $3,375.00

(b) Bank Uno's reserves in Table 2 = $168.75

(c) Bank Duo's loans in Table 3 = $3,045.94

(d) Bank Uno's loans in Table 2 = $3,206.25

Explanation:

Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.

The explanation to the answers is now given as follows:

Also note: See the attached Microsoft Word file for how the accounts will look like in Tables 2 and 3 once the lending and depositing process is complete.

Required reserve ratio refers to the percentage of reserves that the central bank of a country requires banks in the country to keep on hand in case depositors want to withdraw their funds.

The loan given out by a bank is therefore obtained by deducting the required reserve from the total reserve.

Based on the explanation above, we have:

For Table 2, we have:

Deposits in Table 2 = Deposits in Table 1 = $3,375.00

Reserve in Table 2 = Deposits in Table 1 * Required reserve ratio = $3,375.00 * 5% = $168.75

Loans in Table 2 = Deposits in Table 1 - Reserve in Table 2 = $3,375.00 - $168.75 = $3,206.25

For Table 3, we have:

Deposits in Table 3 = Loans in Table 2 = $3,206.25

Reserve in Table 3 = Deposits in Table 3 * Required reserve ratio = $3,206.25 * 5% = $160.31

Loans in Table 3 = Deposits in Table 3 - Reserve in Table 3 = $3,206.25 - $160.31 = $3,045.94

Based on the above calculations, we can now answer the following:

(a) What are Bank Uno's deposits in Table 2? $

Bank Uno's deposits in Table 2 = $3,375.00

(b) What are Bank Uno's reserves in Table 2? $

Bank Uno's reserves in Table 2 = $168.75

Gina made a down payment on a motorcycle. What incentive did she have for making a down payment?
O A tax break
O A higher loan rate
O A less secure loan
O A reduced time in debt

Answers

Because Gina made a down payment on a motorcycle, an incentive that she have for making such down payment is a reduced time in debt.

What do we mean by down payment?

Basically, a down payment refers to the cash that the buyer pays upfront in a transaction and other large purchases. These payment are typically a percentage of the purchase price and can range from as little as 3% to as much as 20%

Here, she intends to purchase that motorbike on credit and by making a down-payment, she is reducing the amount she needs to borrow to buy the bike. So, a reduced loan amount means that Gina will require less to repay which implies that the interest to be paid will reduce.

If overhead is applied using traditional costing based on direct labor hours, the overhead application rate is:

Answers

Answer:

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

Explanation:

If overhead is applied using traditional costing based on direct labor hours, the overhead application rate is:

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

For example:

Total estimated overhead= $150,000

Allocation base= direct labor hours

Estimated Total number of direct labor hours= 10,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 150,000/10,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $15 per direct labor hour

You want a seat on the board of directors of Red Cow, Inc. The company has 260,000 shares of stock outstanding and the stock sells for $51 per share. There are currently 5 seats up for election. The company uses straight voting. How much will it cost you to guarantee that you will be elected to the board

Answers

Answer:

$2,210,051

Explanation:

The computation of the cost that would be guaranteed is shown below:

first find the number of shares controlled which is

= (S x N) ÷  (D + 1) ] + 1

Where,

S = the total number of shares

N  = the number of directors required

D  = total number of directors i.e. elected

So,

= (260,000 × 1) ÷ (5 + 1) + 1

= 43,334

Now the cost is

= 43,334 × $51

= $2,210,051

Champion manufactures winter fleece jackets for sale in the United States. Demand for jackets during the season is normally distributed, with a mean of 20,000 and a standard deviation of 10,000. Each jacket sells for $60 and costs $30 to produce. Any leftover jackets at the end of the season are sold for $25 at the year-end clearance sale. Holding jackets until the year-end sale adds another $5 to their cost. A recent recruit has suggested shipping leftover jackets to South America for sale in the winter there rather than running a clearance. Each jacket will fetch a price of $35 in South America, and all jackets sent there are likely to sell. Shipping costs add additional $5 to the cost of any jacket sold in South America, along with the $5 for holding jackets till the end of the season.

Required:
a. Would you recommend the South American option? Support your decision with calculations.
b. How will the South American option affect production and profitability at Champion?
c. On average, how many jackets will Champion ship to South America each season? (Note: you have already calculated this value in order to get the expected profit for the South American option.

We run a delivery service, and we believe our firm has market risk equally between that of UPS and FedEx. We know the following about these 2 firms:______.
Stock Price per share # shares outstanding Market Value of Debt
UPS $65 0.7 billion $ 5 billion
FedEx $55 250 million $ 3 billion
We also have the following data on the securities of these firms:_______.
Beta E Beta D
UPS 0.8 0
FedEx 1.1 0.1
Assume that our firm has risk-free debt with market value $20 million and equity with market value $450 million. Assume that taxes are not relevant. Please estimate our firm’s equity beta

Answers

Answer:

The firm’s equity beta is therefore equal to 0.85.

Explanation:

Note: The data in the question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

The equity beta refers to a beta that considers different levels of debt of a firm. The equity beta is also known as the levered beta or the project beta. The equity beta is therefore different from the asset beta.

Asset beta refers to a beta does not consider debt and assume that the firm uses only equity financing. Asset beta is known as unlevered beta.

The Firm’s equity can be calculated using the following steps:

Step 1: Calculation of average unlevered beta of the firm

Unlevered beta = Levered beta / (1 + ((1 - Tax rate) * (Debt / Equity ratio))) ……… (1)

Where for UPS;

Levered beta = Beta E = Beta of Equity = 0.80

Tax rate = 0

Debt = Market value of debt = $5 billion

Equity = Market value of equity = Stock Price per share * Number of shares outstanding = $65 * 0.7 billion = $45.50 billion

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

UPS unlevered beta = 0.80 / (1 + ((1 - 0) * (5 / 45.50))) = 0.720792079207921 = 0.72

Where for FedEx;

Levered beta = Beta E = Beta of Equity = 1.10

Tax rate = 0

Debt = Market value of debt = $3 billion

Equity = Market value of equity = Stock Price per share * Number of shares outstanding = $55 * 250 million = $13.75 billion

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

FedEx unlevered beta = 1.10 / (1 + ((1 - 0) * (3 / 13.75))) = 0.902985074626866 = 0.90

Therefore, firm’s averaged unlevered beta can be calculated as follows:

Firm’s averaged unlevered beta = (UPS unlevered beta + FedEx unlevered beta) / 2 = (0.72 + 0.90) / 2 = 0.81

Step 2: Calculation of firm’s levered beta

Firms’ levered beta = Firm’s averaged unlevered beta * (1 + ((1 - Tax rate) * (Debt / Equity ratio))) …….. (2)

Where;

Firm’s averaged unlevered beta = 0.81

Tax rate = 0

Debt = Market value of risk-free debt = $20 million

Equity = Market value of equity = $450 million

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

Firms’ levered beta = 0.81 * (1 + ((1 - 0) * (20 / 450))) = 0.846 = 0.85

Since from the definitions above, the equity beta is also known as the levered beta, the firm’s equity beta is therefore equal to 0.85.

Assume all sales of merchandise from Amalgamated to American Fashions are made with terms n/60, and the two companies use perpetual inventory systems. Assume the following transactions between the two companies occurred in the order listed during the year ended December 31.

Amalgamated sold merchandise to American Fashions at a selling price of $230,000. The merchandise had cost Amalgamated $175,000. Two days later, American Fashions returned goods that had been sold to the company at a price of $20,000 and complained to Amalgamated that some of the remaining merchandise differed from what American Fashions had ordered. Amalgamated agreed to give an allowance of $5,000 to American Fashions. The goods returned by American Fashions had cost Amalgamated $15,270. Just three days later, American Fashions paid Amalgamated, which settled all amounts owed.

Answers

Answer:

See answers below

Explanation:

1. Compute current ratio

Current ratio(2016) = Current assets / Current liabilities

= $6,594,351 / $5,827,005

= 1.13:1

Current ratio(2017) = Current assets / Current liabilities

= $6,905,075 / $7,674,670

= 0.89:1

Compute quick ratio

Quick ratio (2016) = Cash + Net receivables / Current liabilities

= $3,726,549 + $499,142 / $5,827,005

= $4225691 / $5827005

= 0.72:1

Quick ratio (2017) = Cash + Net receivables / Current liabilities

= $3,701,247 + $515,381 / $7,674,670

= $6,905,075 / $7,674,670

= 0.55:1

b. Compute debt to equity ratio

Debt to equity (2016) = Total liabilities / Stockholder's equity

= $16,750,167 / $6,247,242

= 2.68:1

Debt to equity (2017) = Total liabilities / Stockholder's equity

= $23,022,980 / $5,965,725

= 3.86:1

Compute times interest earned ratio

Times interest ratio(2017) = Earning before interest and income tax / Interest expense

• Please note that in 2017, loss before income taxes ($2,209,032) , hence no ratio is computed

c. Compute the cash burn rate for 2017.

Cash burn rate (2017) = Opening cash balance - Closing cash balance / Months

= $3,726,549 - $3,701,247 / 12

= $2,108

Assignment 3 Suggested Length: 750 to 1000 words Ethical Theories to Apply: Golden Rule and Virtue Ethics

1. Task You work in the Ethics Department for ABC Company (ABC). Your department is dedicated to advising its employees about their ethical obligations in the corporate setting. You are an internal consultant who provides advice and most importantly, recommendations for action to employees of the firm. All communications you receive in this capacity are confidential. Luke, an employee of ABC, comes to you with the following scenario and asks for your advice. He wants to fully consider the situation. Your task is to advise and recommend a course of action based on the specified ethical lenses and facts as given. Below are the facts that Luke provides to you. ***** Luke has been asked to work on a project that involves developing land recently purchased by ABC to build an adult entertainment retail store. According to the plan, the land is located on the corner of the neighborhood where Owen, Luke’s brother, lives. Luke knows that as soon as the plans for the store are made public, property values for the surrounding neighborhood will decrease significantly. ABC plans to publicly announce the project one month from today. Luke is concerned about his obligations of confidentiality to his company. However, Luke is also very close to Owen, who recently told Luke that he received an offer to sell his house at an "okay" price given the current real estate market. Owen is considering selling but hasn’t made any final decision yet. He wonders if he might get a better offer a few years from now when the real estate market improves. What is the ethical issue, why is this an issue, and what should Luke do about it?

***** For assignment 3, prepare a memo, setting out your analysis and recommendations, that considers ONLY the following two theories: Golden Rule and Virtue Ethics.

Answers

Answer:

My answer is a little long, so you will probably need to summarize it.

The ethical issue here is that you work for a company that is about to open a store that will make the price of your brother's house to plummet. Your brother has the option to sell his house right now, but if you tell him to accept the offer, you will be breaching your employment duties.

Is your duty towards your brother more or less important than the duty towards the company?

We can analyze both possible outcomes:

You do not tell your brother and he does not sell his house. After the store is announced, your brother's house will decrease in value. That means that your brother will lose a lot of money, but you complied with the obligation of confidentiality that you have with your company. The downside is that once your brother knows about it, he will hate you for the rest of his life. And the hatred will probably not be limited to only your brother, most, if not all of your family will be very unpleased and terribly mad at you.  Your family will probably wonder why your parents didn't abort you?, or are you adopted?, or do you simply hate humanity? On the other hand, you decide that you value your brother and whole family, and you decide to tell him to accept the offer. You will have breached your confidentiality obligation towards the company, but you will have literally saved your brother's financial situation, and you will have saved any type of relationship that you have with your family. Will the company be hurt by your decision? No, it will not make any difference to them. They are announcing the decision in just a few days, so anything that you tell your brother will not make any difference. Since your brother will try to sell his house, he will keep the information to himself, since telling other people will only ruin any possible sale.

If we follow the golden rule: do to others what you would like them to do to you, then obviously we should tell Owen about our company's plans. If we were Owen, that information would be really important for us.

If we follow virtue ethics, then it gets a little bit more complicated. Is telling Owen about the new store a virtuous action? Would a virtuous person do it? To be honest, I'm not really sure what exactly is a virtuous person.

What I understand is that virtue ethics is based on who you are, and not what you really will do. So, the question here would be: Are you a good (or virtuous) brother? Are you a good (or virtuous) employee? In this case, you cannot be a virtuous employee and a virtuous brother at the same time, so it depends on which you value the most. Going back to the possible outcomes, I would prefer to be a virtuous brother in this case.

The fixed overhead volume variance for November was

a. $1,200 unfavorable.
b. $5,000 favorable.
c. $5,000 unfavorable.
d. $10,000 favorable.

Answers

Answer:

Manufacturing overhead volume variance= $1,200 unfavorable

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

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

Fixed Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,200,000/240,000

Fixed Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate=  $5 per machine hour

Now, to calculate the fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance, we need to use the following formula:

Manufacturing overhead volume variance = Actual Factory Overhead - Budgeted Allowance Based on Standard Hours

Manufacturing overhead volume variance= (101,200) - (5*20,000)

Manufacturing overhead volume variance= $1,200 unfavorable

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:______

a. $387,280.
b. $391,400.
c. $400,000.
d. $412,000.

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.
