Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $0.5
Explanation:
To calculate the variable and fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (5,420 - 2,925) / (8,870 - 3,880)
Variable cost per unit= $0.5
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 5,420 - (0.5*8,870)
Fixed costs= $985
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 2,925 - (0.5*3,880)
Fixed costs= $985

Andrews Company manufactures a line of office chairs. Each chair takes $18 of direct materials and uses 1.9 direct labor hours at $18 per direct labor hour. The variable overhead rate is $1.00 per direct labor hour, and the fixed overhead rate is $1.50 per direct labor hour. Andrews expects to have 640 chairs in ending inventory. There is no beginning inventory of office chairs.
Prepare a cost of goods sold budget for Andrews Company.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Direct materials :
$18
Direct labor :
1.9 hours × $18 labor costs
$34.2
Overhead
1.9 labor hours × ($1.50 fixed rate + $1.0 variable rate)
$4.75
Total unit cost
$18 + $34.2 + $4.75
$56.95
Cost to produce 640 chairs :
640 chairs × $56.95 per chair = $36,448
Crane Company estimates that variable costs will be 55.00% of sales, and fixed costs will total $702,000. The selling price of the product is $4. (a) Compute the break-even point in (1) units and (2) dollars. (1) Break-even sales units (2) Break-even sales $ (c) Assuming actual sales are $2,000,000, compute the margin of safety in (1) dollars and (2) as a ratio. (1) Margin of safety $ (2) Margin of safety ratio %
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
The Variable cost is
= 55% of $4
=$2.2
Now
Contribution margin per unit
= Sale - Variable cost
= $4 - $2.2
= $1.8 per unit
a.Breakeven point is
= Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin
In units
= ($702,000 ÷ $1.8)
= 390,000 units
in dollars = (390,000 × $4)
= $1,560,000
b.Margin of safety = Total sales - Breakeven sales
In dollars = ($2,000,000 - $1,560,000)
= $440,000
Margin of safety ratio =Margin of safety ÷ Total sales
= ($440,000 ÷ $2,000,000)
= 22%
An investor deposits $35,000 into an IRA for her retirement in 25 years.The account pays 3.5% interest compounded continuously. She also plans to deposit $1800 each year into the account in a near-continuous manner for the same amount of time. What will be the value of her account after 25 years if she stays true to this plan
Answer:
The value of her account after 25 years, if she stays true to the plan is:
= $152,823.31.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Initial deposits = $35,000
Period of investment = 25 years
Interest rate per year = 3.5% compounded continuously
Annual deposit into the same account = $1,800

Sum of all periodic payments $45,000.00
Total Interest $25,109.74
In 2019, Vaughn sold 3000 units at $500 each. Variable expenses were $250 per unit, and fixed expenses were $550000. The same selling price is expected for 2020. Vaughn is tentatively planning to invest in equipment that would increase fixed costs by 20%, while decreasing variable costs per unit by 20%. What is Vaughn’s break-even point in units for 2020? 2200. 3300. 2750. 2640.
Answer:
Break even point in units - 2020 = 2200 units
Explanation:
The break even point in units is the number of units at which the total revenue equals the total cost. We can calculate the break even point in units using the following formula,
Break even in units = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin per unit
Where,
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
We first need to calculate the new fixed costs and variable cost per unit for 2020.
New fixed cost = 550000 * (1 + 20%)
New fixed cost = $660000
New Variable cost per unit = 250 * (1 - 20%)
New Variable cost per unit = $200 per unit
Break even point in units - 2020 = 660000 / (500 - 200)
Break even point in units - 2020 = 2200 units

Assume you are the new Branch Manager of a regional distributor and you would like to ensure your sales force is making the best use of its time with the different customer segments. For those customers that exhibit all of the characteristics of the transactional customer as discussed in the notes (with no possibility to move the customer to a deeper relationship), which of the following approaches would you recommend to your sales force? Group of answer choices By creating value in the first phase of the relationship by helping transactional customers solve complex problems. By spending time researching and identifying growth opportunities for the transactional customer in other, unrelated markets. By spending time creating exceptional customer value during all four phases of the purchasing process. By exerting significant time and effort during the riskiest part of the sales process in hopes that the investment will pay off with a sale. By making the purchase process easy, hassle free and preventing post-sale issues.
Answer:
By creating value in the first phase of the relationship by helping transactional customers solve complex problems.
Explanation:
Transactional customers are this that are focused primarily on the transaction they are engaged in.
They do extensive research on order to get some expertise on a product. Therefore they do not focus on enjoying the sales process. Only the beginning of the process that involves pricing, negotiation, and to discover great products.
To retain such customers it is important to make a good impression at the early stage by creating value in the first phase of the relationship and helping them solve complex problems.
This will satisfy their need for research into a product or service.
They will keep coming back for such assistance.

StellarFurniture Company started construction of a combination office and warehouse building for its own use at an estimated cost of $4,500,000 on January 1, 2020. Stellar expected to complete the building by December 31, 2020. Stellar has the following debt obligations outstanding during the construction period.
Construction loan-12% interest, payable semiannually, issued December 31, 2019 $1,800,000
Short-term loan-10% interest, payable monthly, and principal payable at maturity on May 30, 2021 1,350,000
Long-term loan-11% interest, payable on January 1 of each year. Principal payable on January 1, 2024 900,000
Required:
a. Assume that Stellar completed the office and warehouse building on December 31, 2020, as planned at a total cost of $11,440,000, and the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures was $7,920,000. Compute the avoidable interest on this project.
b. Compute the depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2021. Stellar elected to depreciate the building on a straight-line basis and determined that the asset has a useful life of 30 years and a salvage value of $660,000.
Answer:
A. $852,480
B. $387,749
Explanation:
1) Computation for the avoidable interest on this project
First step is to calculate the Avoidable interest on construction loan using this formula
Avoidable interest on construction loan = Loan Amount*Loan rate
Let plug in the formula
Avoidable interest on construction loan= $1,800,000*12%
Avoidable interest on construction loan= $216,000
Second step is to calculate the Weighted Average Interest Rate on General Loan (Amounts in $)
Loan Amount (A) Interest rate (B) Interest (A*B)
Short term loan 1,350,000 10% $135,000
Long term loan 900,000 11% 99,000
Total $2,250,000 $234,000
Weighted Average Interest rate = $234,000/$2,250,000
Weighted Average Interest rate = = 10.40%
Third step is to calculate the Avoidable Interest on Remaining Expenditure
Using this formula
Avoidable Interest on Remaining Expenditure
= (Weighted Average Accum. Exp - Construction Loan)*Weighted Avg interest rate
Let plug in the formula
Avoidable Interest on Remaining Expenditure= ($7,920,000 - $1,800,000)*10.40%
Avoidable Interest on Remaining Expenditure= $636,480
Now let calculate the Total Avoidable Interest
Total Avoidable Interest = $216,000+$636,480
Total Avoidable Interest= $852,480
Therefore the avoidable interest on this project
is $852,480
2) Computation for the depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2021.
First step is to calculate the Total cost of building capitalized
Total cost of building capitalized = $11,440,000+$852,480
Total cost of building capitalized = $12,292,480
Now let calculate the Depreciation Expense using this formula
Depreciation Expense = (Cost - Salvage Value)/Useful Life
Let plug in the formula
Depreciation Expense= ($12,292,480 - $660,000)/30 yrs
Depreciation Expense = $387,749 per year
Therefore the depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2021 is $387,749.
Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below:
Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost
Direct materials 7.90 pounds $2.10 per pound $16.59
Direct labor 0.50 hours $5.00 per hour $2.50
During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded:
a. 14,850.00 pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.00 per pound.
b. All of the material purchased was used to produce 1,500 units of Zoom.
c. 600 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $4,200.
Required:
1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month.
2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (2.1 - 2)*14,850
Direct material price variance= $1,485 favorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (7.9*1,500 - 14,850)*2.1
Direct material quantity variance= $6,300 unfavorable
To calculate the direct labor efficiency and rate variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (1,500*0.5 - 600)*5
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $750 favorable
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Direct labor rate variance= (5 - 7)*600
Direct labor rate variance= $1,200 unfavorable
Actual rate= 4,200/600= $7
Credit reporting agencies are required to exclude negative information that is older than five years old. A) True B) False
A business operated at 100% of capacity during its first month and incurred the following costs: Production costs (20,000 units): Direct materials $180,000 Direct labor 240,000 Variable factory overhead 280,000 Operating expenses: Variable operating expenses $130,000 Fixed operating expenses 50,000 180,000 If 1,600 units remain unsold at the end of the month, the amount of inventory that would be reported on the variable costing balance sheet is a.$66,400 b.$64,000 c.$78,400 d.$56,000
Answer:
d.$56,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of inventory that would be reported on the variable costing balance sheet is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
The total production cost
= Direct material + direct labor + variable factory overhead
= $180,000 + $240,000 + $280,000
= $700,000
Now the production cost per unit is
= $700,000 ÷ 20,000 units
= $35 per unit
Now the amount of inventory is
= 1,600 units × $35 per unit
= $56,000
Assume Italy and Libya can both produce grain and dates, and that the only limited resource is the farming labor force, meaning that land, water, and all other resources are plentiful in both countries. Each farmer in Italy can produce 10 t of grain or 5 t of dates in a season. Each farmer in Libya can also produce 10 t of grain or 25 t of dates. Please answer the four questions. Which country has the absolute advantage in producing dates
Answer and Explanation:
Since each farmer in Italy can produce 10ton of grain or 5ton of dates while on the other hand each farmer in libya can produce 10ton of grain or 25ton of dates
So based on the above information Libya produce more as compared with the Italy
Therefore libya has an absolute advantage in producing dates
Hence, the same is to be considered

Land was purchased on October 1, 2020. Equipment was purchased on February 1, 2020. Inventory was purchased on October 1, 2020 (reported at cost) Relevant exchange dates follow: (A) January 1, 2020 (B) October 1, 2020 (C) December 31, 2020 (D) Average, 2020 (E) February 1, 2020 Identify the exchange rate used to translate inventory when the functional currency is the foreign currency.
Answer:
Land, Equipment, and Inventory will be restated on the closing date i.e. December 31, 2020. The rate of the currency exchange from local to foreign currency for equipment is on the day of purchase which is February 1, 2020.
Explanation:
1-Balance sheet items are restated on the closing date.
2-P & L items are restated on the transaction date.
As the items Land, Equipment and Inventory are all the balance sheet items, thus they will be stated on the closing date i.e. December 31, 2020.

The accounts receivable balance of $11,800 consists of $7,500 not yet due, $2,300 up to 30 days past due, and $2,000 greater than 30 days past due. What is the appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense
Answer:
The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.
Explanation:
The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense can be calculated as follows:
Bad debt expense = (Percentage of accounts receivable not yet due it will not collect * Accounts receivable not yet due) + (Percentage of receivables up to 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables up to 30 days past due) + (Parentage of receivables of receivables greater than 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables greater than 30 days past due) - Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit) ……………………… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Bad debt expense = (7% * $7,500) + (20% + $2,300) + (46% * $2,000) - $400 = $3,345.20
Therefore, the appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.
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 $1,050, 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 $52,880 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. The applicable state income tax rate is 2.88 percent. Use the Wage Bracket Method Tables for Income Tax Withholding in Appendix C.
Answer:
His net pay on his November 15 paycheck is $1,349.70.
Explanation:
Number of semiannual in a year = 24
Semiannual gross pay = ($50,000 / 24) = $2,083.33
Social security tax = Semiannual gross pay * 6.20% = $2,083.33 * 6.20% = $129.17
Medicare tax = Semiannual gross pay * 1.45% = $2,083.33 * 1.45% = $30.21
401(k) contribution = Semiannual gross pay * 3% = $2,083.33 * 3% = $62.50
Section 125 plan = $25
Advance repayment = $750 / 2 = $375.00
Taxable Wages = Semiannual gross pay - Section 125 plan - 401(k) contribution = $2,083.33 - $25 - $62.50 = $1,995.83
Federal income tax = Taxable Wages * 1.6% = $1,995.83 * 1.6% = $31.93
State Income tax = Taxable Wages * 4% = $1,995.83 * 4% = $79.83
Net pay = Taxable Wages - Federal income tax - State Income tax - Social security tax - Medicare tax - Advance repayment = $1995.83 - $31.93 - $79.83 - $129.16 - $30.21 - $375 = $1,349.70
Therefore, his net pay on his November 15 paycheck is $1,349.70.
Suppose that the public holds 50% of the money supply in currency and the reserve requirement is 20%. Banks hold no excess reserves. A customer deposits $6,000 in her checkable deposit. Assume that after receiving the deposit, the bank lends out its excess reserves. When the loan is spent, _____ of the loan will be a checkable deposit and _____ will be held by the public as cash. $6,000; $0
Answer: $2,400; $2,400
Explanation:
If a deposit of $6,000 is made, the reserve requirement is 20% so the bank will have to reserve this amount of:
= 6,000 * 20%
= $1,200
The bank will be left with:
= 6,000 - 1,200
= $4,800
The bank lends all of this out.
The public holds 50% of the currency so they will keep:
= 50% * 4,800
= $2,400
The rest - which is $2,400 - will be deposited as checkable deposits.

What do you understand about risk management?Risk management can be understood as the identification, evaluation, and prioritization of risks followed by the coordinated and economical application of resources to minimize, monitor, and control the probability or impact of unfortunate events or to maximize the realization of opportunities. Risks can come from various sources including uncertainty in international markets, threats from project failures, legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural causes and disasters, deliberate attack from an adversary, or events of the uncertain or unpredictable root cause.
There are two types of events: they are negative events which can be classified as risks and positive events are classified as opportunities. Risk management standards have been developed by various institutions, including the Project Management Institute, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, actuarial societies, and ISO standards.
Risk management has appeared in scientific and management literature since the 1920s.

Bill Smith is evaluating the performance of four large-cap equity portfolios: Funds A, B, C, and D. As part of his analysis, Smith computed the Sharpe ratio and the Treynor's measure for all four funds. Based on his finding, the ranks assigned to the four funds are as follows: Fund Treynor Measure Rank Sharpe Ratio Rank A 1 4 B 2 3 C 3 2 D 4 1 The difference in rankings for Funds A and D is most likely due to:
Question Completion with Options:
a. A lack of diversification in fund A as compared to fund D.
b. Different benchmarks used to evaluate each fund’s performance.
c. A difference in risk premiums.
Answer:
The difference in rankings for Funds A and D is most likely due to:
a. A lack of diversification in fund A as compared to fund D.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Fund Treynor Measure Rank Sharpe Ratio Rank
A 1 4
B 2 3
C 3 2
D 4 1
b) The Sharpe ratio and the Treynor measure are two financial performance ratios that measure the risk-adjusted rate of return of an investment. Specifically, the Sharpe ratio helps investors to understand an investment's return profile when compared to its risk profile. On the other hand, the Treynor ratio measures the excess return generated for portfolio risk per unit.
In conclusion, the Sharpe ratio appears to be a better measure with a portfolio that is not properly diversified, while the Treynor ratio works better with a well-diversified portfolio.
The FOMC is presented with data and analysis showing that the output gap has gone from nearly 0 to large and negative. Additionally, inflation is 1.2% instead of the target rate, 2%. a.

Robert is the sole shareholder and CEO of ABC, Inc., an S corporation that is a qualified trade or business. During the current year, ABC has net income of $325,000 after deducting Robert’s $100,000 salary. In addition to his compensation, ABC pays Robert dividends of $250,000. What is Robert’s qualified business income? Would your answer to part (a) change if you determined that reasonable compensation for someone with Robert’s experience and responsibilities is $200,000? Why or why not
Answer and Explanation:
a. The calculation of the robert qualified business income is shown below:
Since robert is the sole shareholder and CEO of the ABC Inc and earned the income of $325,000 after subtracting the deduction of $100,000 salary
Also their is a dividend of $250,000
But the qualified business income should be equivalent to the net income i.e. $325,000
b. In the case when there is $200,000 so the net income would be decreased by $100,000
Now the qualified business income is
= $325,000 - $100,000
= $225,000

CUSTOMER REVIEW
The president of BlueNote, Inc.
Solution :
Risk management first involves the identification of the potential risk that may be involved. It should focus both on the objectives as well as events that could cause the consequences.
Some of the major risks that can be involved are :
• sudden weather conditions which may not support the flight travel.
• Embargo on fishing by the State or local authority suddenly
• any kind of physical injury to the members of the group
• there may be forest fire around the lake
• technical error that might occur during the course of adventures
The impact for the risk that includes the majuere risk will be very high for all the parameters that can increase the cost by 40%, it can also lead to increase in time by about 20% which can cancel the expedition. . These types of risk will not be covered under any scope.
For the physical risk, the impact will be moderate for the parameters.
