Answer:
See below
Explanation:
The below shows the calculation of variance
Budgeted direct labor (per unit) 0.60
Units 2,000
Budgeted direct total labor (hrs) 1,200
Actual hours 1,160
Standard rate $17
Direct labor efficiency variance
The direct labor efficiency variance
= (Budgeted hours - Actual hours) × Standard rate
= (1,200 - 1,160) × $18
= $720 favourable

Group of answer choices The partnership's objectives should move beyond tactical issues and toward a more strategic path The partnership should have a shared vision and objectives The partnership should have measurable objectives The vision and objectives should be accepted and formally agreed upon by both parties All of the above are considered important in strengthening partner relationships
Answer:
All of the above are considered important in strengthening partner relationships
Explanation:
Partner relationship exists when two or more people come together to undertake a business venture. Profits and losses are between all partners.
Maintaining a good partner relationship ensures that the business performs and meets its goals.
A strategic path for objectives of the partners means the business does not only plan but executes its plans.
Shared vision and objectives ensures the partners work in harmony to achieve set targets.
The obejecives should be measureable, this sets realistic milestones.
Also shared vision and objectives should be formally agreed to by all parties.
Absorption and Variable Costing; Inventory Valuation Bondware Inc., has a highly automated assembly line that uses very little direct labor. Therefore, direct labor is part of variable overhead. For March, assume that it incurred the following unit costs: Direct materials $500 Variable overhead 440 Fixed overhead 160 The 100 units of beginning inventory for March had an absorption costing value of $90,000 and a variable costing value of $76,000.
For March, assume that Bondware Inc. produced 500 units and sold 540 units.
Compute Bondware's March amount of ending inventory under both absorption and variable costing if the FIFO inventory method was used.
Ending Inventory
Absorption Costing $ (Answer)
Variable Costing $ (Answer)
Answer:
Bondware Inc.
FIFO Inventory Method:
Ending Inventory (60 units):
Absorption Costing = $66,000
Variable Costing = $56,400
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Unit Production Costs for March:
Direct materials $500
Variable overhead 440
Total variable cost $940
Fixed overhead 160
Total manufacturing
costs per unit $1,100
Calculation of Ending Units of Inventory:
Beginning units 100
Units produced = 500
Units sold = (540)
Ending units = 60
Beginning Inventory, 100 units:
Absorption costing value = $90,000
Variable costing value = $76,000
FIFO Inventory Method:
Ending Inventory:
Absorption Costing = 60 * $1,100 = $66,000
Variable Costing = 60 * $940 = $56,400

The following cost behavior patterns describe anticipated manufacturing costs for 2019: raw material, $7.50/unit; direct labor, $10.50/unit; and manufacturing overhead, $297,500 $8.50/unit. Required: If anticipated production for 2019 is 35,000 units, calculate the unit cost using variable costing and absorption costing. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Unit cost
$
Variable costing 18
Absorption costing 26.5
Explanation:
Variable costing values every unit produced at the marginal cost. Marginal cost is the sum of direct material, direct labor and variable overhead.
Marginal cost = 7.50 + 10.50 =$18
Absorption costing values every unit at full cost. Full cost is the sum of marginal and fixed overhead cost per unit,
Fixed overhead cost per unit = $297,500/35,000=8.5
Full cost = 7.50 + 10.50 + 8.50= $26.5
Unit cost
$
Variable costing 18
Absorption costing 26.5

Ultimo Co. operates three production departments as profit centers. The following information is available for its most recent year. Department 1's contribution to overhead as a percent of sales is:
Dept. Sales Cost of Goods Sold Direct Expenses Indirect Expenses
1 1,080,000 708,000 102,000 88,000
2 480,000 158,000 48,000 108,000
3 780,000 308,000 158,000 28,000
a) 56.7%
b) 25.0%
c) 34.7%
d) 34.0%
e) 61.6%
Answer:
b) 25.0%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Department 1's contribution to overhead as a percent of sales is
First step is to calculate the Contribution to overhead
Using this formula
Contribution to overhead=Sales - Cost of goods sold - Direct expenses
Let plug in the formula
Contribution to overhead=1,080,000 - $708,000 - 102,000
Contribution to overhead= $270,000
Now let calculate the Contribution to overhead as a percent of sales using this formula
Contribution to overhead as a percent of sales=Contribution to overhead/Sales
Let plug in the formula
Contribution to overhead as a percent of sales=$270,000/$1,080,000
Contribution to overhead as a percent of sales= 25%
Therefore Department 1's contribution to overhead as a percent of sales is 25%
You expect Technomess Company common stock to pay a dividend of $2.40 one year from now. You can buy the stock now for $52, and you plan to sell the stock at the end of one year. Given the risk of the stock, your required rate of return is 16%. For what price would you need to sell your stock in one year in order to earn your required rate of return
Answer:
The stock price = $57.92
Explanation:
The return on a stock is the sum of the capital gains(loss) plus the dividends earned.
Capital gain is the difference between he value of the stocks when sold and the cost of the shares when purchased.
Total shareholders Return =
(Capital gain/ loss + dividend )/purchase price × 100
16% = ((x-52) + 2.40)/52
0.16×52 = (x-52) + 2.40
8.32 = X- 52 + 2.40
52+8.32-240=X
57.92 = X
$57.92= X
The stock would need to be sold for = $57.92

Explanation:
The bank reconciliation statement identifies transactions that have been correctly recorded by the bank but are yet to be correctly recorded in the books (if recorded).
Considering the given transactions;
Outstanding checks have been deducted from the cash book but are yet to be deducted from the bank.
The bank charge has been deducted from the bank balance but is yet to be recorded in the cash book.
Deposits in transit has been added to the cash book balance but is yet to be added to the bank balance hence it is deducted from the cash book balance to reconcile it to the bank balance.
Electronic funds transfer has been added to the bank balance and will be added to the cash book balance.
Only the bank charge and electronic transfer are yet to be adjusted for in the books hence adjusting entries are required for these 2 items.

Assume there is an economy with a single bank, and the central bank sets the reserve requirement ratio at 5%. Assume also that the only bank had no transactions (i.e., no loans, reserves, or deposits) prior to an individual who deposits $2000 of currency with the bank.
a. As a result of this deposit, calculate the amount of required reserves, actual reserves, and excess reserves.
b. After the bank has issued the maximum amount of loans, what will be the total amount of loans, deposits, and money in the economy?
c. What is the size of the money multiplier for this economy?
Answer:
An Economy with a Single Bank
a. The amount of required reserves = $100
The amount of actual reserves = $100
The amount of excess reserves = $0.
b. The total amount of loans, deposits, and money in the economy
= $40,000
c. The size of the money multiplier for this economy
= 20
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Reserve requirement ratio = 5%
Customer's deposit = $2,000
Amount of required reserves
= Initial deposits multiplied by reserve ratio
= $100 ($2,000 * 5%)
Actual reserves = $100
Excess reserves = $0
Total amount of loans, deposits, and money in the economy
= Initial Deposits/Reserve Ratio
= $40,000 ($2,000/0.05)
The size of the money multiplier for this economy = Total money supply in the economy divided by the initial money deposits
= $40,000/$2,000
= 20
b) The Money Multiplier refers to how the initial deposit of $2,000 leads to a bigger final increase in the total money supply of $40,000. It means that the money multiplier is 20 or that the initial deposit of $2,000 has multiplied by 20 to $40,000.
Suppose that there are two industries, A and B. There are five firms in industry A with sales at $5 million, $2 million, $1 million, $1 million, and $1 million, respectively. There are four firms in industry B with equal sales of $2.5 million for each firm. The HHI for industry A is:
Answer:
3200
Explanation:
The HHI is calculated by squaring the market share of each firm in the industry.
Market share = sales of a firm / total sales of firms in the industry
total sales of firms in the industry = 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 10
Market share of firm A = (5/10) x 100 = 50%
Market share of firm B = (2/10) x 100 = 20%
Market share of firm C, D, E = (1/10) x 100 = 10%
50² + 20² + 10² + 10² + 10² = 3200
Using Firm Guidance to Research a Revenue Question
•You are an accountant working for Hotel Co. Your supervisor has asked you to research what amount of revenue Hotel Co. should recognize for transactions booked by customers on Expedia.com.
•Expedia generally collects the full transaction price from the customer, then withholds a small fee (say, $10) from each transaction and remits the balance to Hotel Co.
•Should Hotel Co. record the gross transaction fee or only the net amount it receives from Expedia.com? Use nonauthoritative firm guidance to assist in your response.
•Start off with the codifications (606?), then move to the non-auth. sources.
Answer:
The Hotel Co. should record the net amount it receives from Expedia.com
Explanation:
According to codification ( 606 ) The Hotel Co. should record the net amount it receives from Expedia.com
Applying codification ( 606 ) the entity( Expedia.com ) will give the agreed upon transaction price to Hotel.co as soon as a requirement is met. and that price can be based on standalone selling prices of the service or good which is defined within the contract. but if the selling price is not clear there will be an estimate of the price, note that: Transaction prices are always not the same as the standalone selling price.
A discount term of 20/15/5 means: Group of answer choices based on the timing of payment, 1 of the 3 discount options can be applied based on the size of the order, 1 of the 3 options can be applied if all conditions are met, all 3 discounts can be applied to the list price all three discounts are possible but it is rare that all three are able to be applied
Answer: If all conditions are met, all 3 discounts can be applied to the list price
Explanation:
This is a series discount which means the following:
20 is for 20% off the list price which leaves 80%.
15 is for 15% off which leaves 85% and,
5 is for 5% off which leaves 95%.
If all conditions placed by the seller are met, all 3 discounts can be applied to the list price.
They are applied by multiplying the discounted price proportions.
= 0.8 * 0.85 * 0.95
= 0.646 will be the discounted price.
Superior Company has provided you with the following information before any year-end adjustments: Net credit sales are $122,500. Historical percentage of credit losses is 4%. Allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance of $650. Accounts receivables ending balance is $52,000. What is the estimated bad debt expense using the percentage of credit sales method
Answer:
The estimated bad debt expense using the percentage of credit sales method is $4,250.
Explanation:
Credit losses = Net credit sales * Historical percentage of credit losses = $122,500 * 4% = $4,900
Allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance = $650.
The estimated bad debt expense can therefore be calculated as follows:
Bad debt expense = Credit losses - allowance for doubtful accounts credit balance = $4,900 - $650 = $4,250
Therefore, the estimated bad debt expense using the percentage of credit sales method is $4,250.

Torge Company bought a machine for $74,000 cash. The estimated useful life was five years and the estimated residual value was $5,000. Assume that the estimated useful life in productive units is 165,000. Units actually produced were 44,000 in year 1 and 49,500 in year 2.
Required:
1. Determine the appropriate amounts to complete the following schedule. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Depreciation Expense for Depreciation Expense for Book Value at the End of Method of Depreciation Book Value at the End of Method of Depreciation
Method of Depreciation Year 1 Year 2 Year 1 Year 2
Straight-line
Units-of-production
Double-declining-balance
2. Which method would result in the lowest net income for year 1?
3. Which method would result in the lowest net income for year 2?
4. Which method would result in the lowest fixed asset turnover ratio for year 1?
Answer:
Straight line depreciation
Depreciation expense Book Value at the End of Year 1 $13800 $60,200
Year 2 $13800 $46,400
Units of production
Depreciation expense Book Value at the End of Year 1 $18400 $55,600
Year 2 $20,700 $34,900
Double declining balance
Depreciation expense Book Value at the End of Year 1 $29600 $44,400
Year 2 $17,760 $26,640
2. Double-declining-balance
3. Units-of-production
4. Straight-line
Explanation
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($74,000 - $5000) / 5 = $13800
Depreciation expense each year would be $13800
Book value = cost of asset - depreciation
Book value in year 1 = $74,000 - $13800 = $60,200
Book value in year 2 = $60,200 - $13800 = $46,400
Unit of production = (total output that year / total output of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)
Deprecation expense in year 1 = (44,000 / 165,000) x ($74,000 - $5000) = $18400
Deprecation expense in year 2 = (49,500 / 165,000) x ($74,000 - $5000) = $20700
Book value in year 1 = $74,000 - $18,400 = $55,600
Book value in year 2 = $55,600 - $20700 = $34,900
Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset
Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2/5 = 0.4
Deprecation expense in year 1 = 0.4 x $74,000 = $29600
Book value in year 1 = $74,000 - $29600 = $44,400
Deprecation expense in year 2 = 0.4 x $44,400 = $17,760
Book value in year 2 = $44,400 - $17,760 = $26,640
Net income is revenue less cost of goods sold, general expenses, taxes, depreciation and interest.
The method that would yield the lowest net income in year 1 is the method that yields the highest deprecation expense in year 1. This is the double declining method
The Units-of-production would yield the lowest net income in year 2 because it has the highest depreciation expense
Fixed asset turnover = revenue / average net fixed assets
average net fixed assets = cost of asset - accumulated depreciation
the higher the average net fixed asset, the lower the fixed asset turnover. The depreciation method that yields the lowest depreciation expense in year 1 would have the lowest fixed asset turnover ratio. This is the straight line method
William is a single writer (age 35) who recently decided that he needs to save more for retirement. His 2020 AGI before the IRA contribution deduction is $66,000 (all earned income). (Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable.) a. If he does not participate in an employer-sponsored plan, what is the maximum deductible IRA contribution William can make in 2020?
Answer: $6,000
Explanation:
As per IRS deduction rules in 2020, the maximum deductible IRA contribution for a person who does not participate in an employer-sponsored plan is $6,000.
That is therefore the maximum deductible that William can make in this scenario.

Areas of land are divided by appropriate authorities into zones within which various uses are permitted. Thus, zoning is a technique of land-use planning as a tool of urban planning used by local governments in most developed countries. Because of the importance of zoning and regulating the manner of property use, which of the following statements is most accurate?
a. changing zoning to allow some landowner to use property other than what is permitted for that land is 'spot zoning' and unlawful in most states
b. it is almost impossible to obtain a variance in zoning
c. variances were rendered unlawful pursuant to the federal civil rights laws because they were used to discriminate against people unlawfully
d. it is possible to obtain a variance to use property for purposes other than how the property is zoned, but in granting permission for such a special use the governing entity granting such permission must use its discretion to insure compatible use and that zoning scheme is not disrupted
Answer: d. it is possible to obtain a variance to use property for purposes other than how the property is zoned, but in granting permission for such a special use the governing entity granting such permission must use its discretion to insure compatible use and that zoning scheme is not disrupted.
Explanation:
Variances are exceptions to the zoning rules and laws applied by the governing entity in charge of the zoning and enable users to use a property for other reasons that the zone permit may allow.
The type of variance being sought and the governing entity are very important because some variances are easier to get and some entities are more flexible.
In all cases however, when a variance is granted, the governing entity should ensure it uses its discretion to make sure that the variance is used well and that the zoning scheme is not disrupted.
Answer:
D. it is possible to obtain a variance to use property for purposes other than how the property is zoned, but in granting permission for such a special use the governing entity granting such permission must use its discretion to insure compatible use and that zoning scheme is not disrupted

Suppose the economy of the large country of Hendrix is currently experiencing expansion as a result of short run business cycle fluctuations. Hendrix has a trade deficit. The items below are possible effects of this expansion on the trade balance. Please sort them into boxes below as appropriate. If they do not fit into either box (e.g. not likely to occur in an expansion), leave them unsorted.
Likely to occur in an expansion and increase the trade deficit
Likely to occur in an expansion and decrease the trade deficit
private savings decrease domestic private investment increases private savings increase government borrowing decreases imports increase government borrowing increases domestic private investment decreases imports decrease
Answer:
Likely to occur in an expansion and increase the trade deficit.
Domestic private investment increasesImports increaseAs a result of expansion, there is more income in the economy which means that people will be able to invest more. The investment will however lead to more imports as capital goods are acquired. This will therefore increase the trade deficit which is defined as the difference between net exports and net imports.
Likely to occur in an expansion and decrease the trade deficit.
Private savings increaseGovernment borrowing decreasesIn an expansion, people will have more income and so will save more. As a result of them not spending these savings on imports, the trade deficit will go down.
Also with the economy in an expansion, the government would not need to borrow as much money to prop up the economy. This will reduce the trade deficit which includes loans from outside.
A company is projected to generate free cash flows of $357 million next year, growing at a 6% rate until the end of year 3. After that, cash flows are expected to grow at a stable rate of 2.4% in perpetuity. The company's cost of capital is 9.1%. The company owes $96 million to lenders and has $14 million in cash. If the company has 207 million shares outstanding, what is your estimate for its stock price
Answer:
$27.02
Explanation:
Year a Cash flow b Discount factor (c = 1.091^-a) Present Value d=b*c
1 $357.00 0.9165903 $327.22
2 $378.42 0.8401377 $317.92
3 $401.13 0.7700621 $308.89
Total $954.04
Present value of after year 3 cash flows:
Present value = CF3*(1+g)/(Ke-g)*DF3; where CF3 =$401.13, g = 2.40%, Ke = 9.10%, DF3 = 0.770062,
Present value = $4,720.97
Present value of all cash flows:
Present value of cash flows = $954.04 + $4,720.97 + $14.00
Present value of cash flows = $5,689
Calculation of value per share:
Value of firm = $5,689.00
Less: Value of debt = $96.00
Value of equity $5,593.00
/ No. of shares 207
Value per share $27.02
Schweitzer realized that in many cases individuals could only accomplish direct human service in collaboration with official organization. What he wanted was: to help fund such organizations. to be a leader in such organizations. an absolutely personal and independent activity. to increase the number of official organizations dedicated to direct human service.
Answer: an absolutely personal and independent activity
Explanation:
Since Schweitzer realized that direct human service can only be accomplished when one collaborates with an official organization, this shows that he wanted to be an absolutely personal and independent activity.
In such case, he wants an activity that will be free from the outside control. Other options are wrong as he wasn't really interested in funding of organizations, or increasing the number of official organizations that are dedicated to direct human service.
According to the literature on organizational conflict, constructive conflict Question 1 options: tends to produce beneficial outcomes, particularly better decision making. is the main source of conflict in organizations. is the only conflict management style that has high assertiveness and low cooperativeness. is one of the most common outcomes of organizational conflict.
Answer:
tends to produce beneficial outcomes, particularly better decision making.
Explanation:
Constructive conflict occurs when there are problems that need to be solved by a team in the organization, and thus influence people to cooperate with creative and innovative ideas for solving the problem that can help to produce beneficial results, especially better decisions.
Constructive conflict helps the organization to be more productive by aggregating different ideas about the same problem and focusing on the solution to the resolution, which increases the sense of team integration, participation and understanding of different alternatives that will be improved so that the organization has the best decision making for such a problem.
The following is the sales budget for Coore, Inc., for the first quarter of 2019: JanuaryFebruaryMarch Sales budget$135,000$152,000$167,000 Credit sales are collected as follows: 60 percent in the month of the sale 30 percent in the month after the sale 10 percent in the second month after the sale The accounts receivable balance at the end of the previous quarter was $96,000 ($78,800 of which was uncollected December sales). a. Compute the sales for November. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.) b.Compute the sales for December. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.) c.Compute the cash collections from sales for each month from January through March. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.)
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. . Compute the sales for November.
This will be:
= ($96,000 - $78,800) / 10%
= $17200 / 10%
= $17200/0.1
= $172,000
b. Compute the sales for December.
This will be:
= $78800 / (10% + 30%)
= $78800 / 40%
= $78800 / 0.4
= $197000
c. Compute the cash collections from sales for each month from January through March.
January cash collection:
= ($172000 × 10%) + ($197000 × 30%) + ($135000 × 60%)
= $17200 + $59100 + $81000
= $157300
February cash collection:
= ($197000 × 10%) + ($135000 × 30%) + ($152000 × 60%)
= $19700 + $40500 + $91200
= $151400
March cash collection:
= ($135000 × 10%) + ($152000 × 30%) + ($167000 × 60%)
= $13500 + $45600 + $100200
= $159300
