b. __dollars___( euros OR dollars). The bank then converted this amount to c. ___euros________ from d. ______dollars_____( euros OR dollars). and credited it to Spicurity’s account.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Importer = Nevada Co., a US-based MNC
Exporter = Spicurity, a German supplier
Amount of regular payments = 300,000 euros
Exchange rate = $1.93 per euro
Amount in dollars = $579,000 (300,000 euros * $1.93)

Presented below is information related to Pharoah Corporation for the current year. Beginning inventory $ 590,300 Purchases 1,472,500 Total goods available for sale $2,062,800 Sales revenue 2,455,000 Compute the ending inventory, assuming that (a) gross profit is 46% of sales, (b) gross profit is 60% of cost, (c) gross profit is 36% of sales, and (d) gross profit is 25% of cost.
Answer:
a. $948,888
b. $773,550
c. $1,237,680
d. $412,560
Explanation:
The Ending Inventory is calculated using the missing figure approach or the Gross Margin technique.
that is,
Ending Inventory = Cost of Goods Available for Sale - Cost of Sales
thus,
This can be clearly done by writing up a Trading Account as shown below for each scenario.
also remember,
Cost + Profit = Sales
so for those based on cost use this formula.
for example : gross profit is 60% of cost
will be : 100 % + 60 % = 160 %

Sheen Co. manufacturers laser printers. It has outlined the following overhead cost drivers: Overhead Costs PoolCost DriverOverhead Cost Budgeted Level for Cost Driver Quality controlNumber of inspections$77,000 1,100 Machine operationMachine hours 153,000 1,500 Materials handlingNumber of batches 1,200 30 Miscellaneous overhead costDirect labor hours 57,000 5,700 Sheen Co. has an order for 1,000 laser printers that has the following production requirements: Number of inspections295 Machine hours240 Number of batches6 Direct labor hours770 Using activity-based costing, applied machine operation overhead for the 1,000 laser printers order is: Multiple Choice
Answer:
Total allocated costs= $53,070
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the allocation rates using the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Quality control= 77,000 / 1,100 = $70 per inspection
Machine operation= 153,000 / 1,500 = $102 per machine hour
Materials handling= 1,200 / 30 = $40 per batch
Miscellaneous overhead cost= 57,000 / 5,700= $10 per labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Quality control= 70*295= 20,650
Machine operation= 102*240= 24,480
Materials handling= 40*6= 240
Miscellaneous overhead cost= 10*770= 7,700
Total allocated costs= $53,070
Epicure Market prepares fresh gourmet entrees each day. On Wednesday, 80 baked chicken dinners were made at a cost of $3.50 each. A 10% spoilage rate is anticipated. At what price should the dinners be sold to achieve a 60% markup based on selling price
Answer:
The price of a Dinner= $6.22
Explanation:
Mark-up is the proportion of the product cost which is expected to be made as profit. In other words, it is profit expressed as a percentage of product cost.
To account for the spoilage rate of 10%, $3.50 unit cost would be consider as 90% of the cost. Thus, 100% of the cost would be given as follows:
Dinner cost = 100/(100-10)× 3.50= 3.89
The price of a Dinner = product cost + 60% of product cost
The price of a Dinner = 3.89 + 60%*3.89= $6.22
The price of a Dinner= $6.22

Explanation:
is trading at 54.33. You decide to short sell 100 shares of their stock, providing 3100 in collateral to your broker. You hold the short position for one year and expect Comcast to pay a dividend of 1 per share. In one year, the stock price is 44. Assuming the brokerage account pays no interest on your cash, what is your return, relative to your collateral
Answer: 30.1%
Explanation:
Return = (Value of stock when shorted - Dividend - Value of stock when returning stock)/Capital employed
Dividend = 100 shares * $1 per share
= $100
Dividends are subtracted because they are owed to the shareholders the stock was borrowed from.
Value of stock when shorted = 54.33 * 100 = $5,433
Value of stock when returning stock = 44 * 100 = $4,400
= (5,433 - 100 - 4,400) / 3,100
= 30.1%

Spa Inc. gathered the following information related to its gift card sales for 2020, its first year of selling gift cards: Sales of nonrefundable gift cards, 2020$25,500 Gift card redemptions, 2020$18,360 Spa Inc. estimates that 95% of the value of gift cards sold in 2020 will be redeemed while 5% will remain unclaimed. Under the proportional method, what would Spa Inc. recognize for gift card breakage revenue in 2020
Answer: $969
Explanation:
Since 5% of the value of the gift card sold will be unclaimed, the amount claimed will be:
= $25500 - (5% × $25500)
= $25500 -(0.05 × $25500)
= $25500 - $1275
= $24225
We then find the percentage of the cards that have been redeemed already and this will be:
= $18360 / $24225
= 0.7579
= 76%
Therefore, breakage in revenue to be recognized will be:
= ($25500 × 5%) × 76%
= $1275 × 76%
= $1275 × 0.76
= $969

Assume that Clampett, Incorporated, has $200,000 of sales, $150,000 of cost of goods sold, $60,000 of interest income, and $40,000 of dividends. Assume that Clampett, Incorporated, never operated as a C corporation and that the corporate tax rate is 21 percent. What is Clampett, Incorporated's excess net passive income tax
Answer:
$21,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine Clampett, Incorporated's excess net passive income tax
Using this formula
Excess net passive income tax = ( Interest income + Dividends ) × Tax rate
Let plug in the formula
Excess net passive income tax = ( $60,000 + $40,000 ) × 0.21
Excess net passive income tax = $21,000
Therefore Clampett, Incorporated's excess net passive income tax will be $21,000

Agee Storage issued 33 million shares of its $1 par common stock at $21 per share several years ago. Last year, for the first time, Agee reacquired 1 million shares at $19 per share. Assuming that Agee retires shares it reacquires (restores their status to that of authorized but unissued shares), by what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline if it now reacquires 1 million shares at $24 per share?
Answer:
$23 million
Explanation:
Calculation to determine at what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline
First step is to calculate the Cash paid for the first repurchase
Cash paid for the first repurchase = 1 million * 19
Cash paid for the first repurchase = $19 million
Second step is to calculate the Value of first purchase
Value of first purchase = 1 million * 21
Value of first purchase = $21 million
Third step is to calculate the Benefit on first repurchase
Benefit on first repurchase = 21 million - 19 million
Benefit on first repurchase = $2 million
Fourth step is to calculate Cash paid for second repurchase
Cash paid for second repurchase = 1 million * 24
Cash paid for second repurchase = $24 million
Fifth step is to calculate the Value of second purchase = Reacquired shares * Common stock price
Value of second purchase = 1 million * 21
Value of second purchase = $21 million
Last step is to calculate the Decline in total paid-in capital using this formula
Decline in total paid-in capital= Benefit on first repurchase + Value of second purchase
Decline in total paid-in capital = 2 million + 21 million
Decline in total paid-in capital = $23 million
Therefore what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline is $23 million

Predetermined Factory Overhead Rate Novus Engine Shop uses a job order cost system to determine the cost of performing engine repair work. Estimated costs and expenses for the coming period are as follows: Engine parts $1,257,500 Shop direct labor 550,000 Shop and repair equipment depreciation 91,000 Shop supervisor salaries 250,000 Shop property taxs 40,000 Shop supplies 15,000 Advertising expense 75,000 Administrative office salaries 175,000 Administrative office depreciation expense 12,500 Total costs and expenses $2,466,000 The average shop direct labor rate is $25 per hour. Determine the predetermined shop overhead rate per direct labor hour. $fill in the blank 1 per direct labor hour
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $18 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead cost for the period:
Estimated overhead cost= Shop and repair equipment depreciation + Shop supervisor salaries + Shop property taxes + Shop supplies
Estimated overhead cost= 91,000 + 250,000 + 40,000 + 15,000
Estimated overhead cost= $396,000
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 396,000 / (550,000/25)
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 396,000 / 22,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $18 per direct labor hour

b. The price of a donut is $3.00 in 2008.
c. Deborah's wage is 3 magazines per hour in 2008.
Which of the following give the real value of a variable? Check all that apply.
a. The price of a magazine is $9.00 in 2008.
b. The price of a magazine is 3 donuts in 2008.
c. Deborah's wage is $27.00 per hour in 2008.
Suppose that the Fed sharply increases the money supply between 2008 and 2013. In 2013, Deborah's wage has risen to $54.00 per hour. The price of a magazine is $18.00 and the price of a donut is $6.00.
In 2013, the relative price of a magazine is:________
Between 2011 and 2016, the nominal value of Maria's wage _______________and the real value of her wage ____________________-
Monetary neutrality is the proposition that a change in the money supply ___________________ nominal variables and _____________real variables.
Answer:
Nominal variable - Price of a donut is $3.00 in 2008
Real variable- Price of a magazine is 3 donuts in 2008.
Explanation:
In 2008 the price of a magazine was $9.00. While the price of a donut was $3.00. Deborah's income was $27.00 per hour.
Nominal variable's are those which are expressed in terms of money. While, real variables are those variables which are expressed in terms of other goods or services.
The nominal variables will include:
a. The price of a donut is $3.00 in 2008.
The other two options are not nominal variables as they are expressed in terms of the other variable.
The following variables give us the real value of a variable:
b. The price of a magazine is 3 donuts in 2008.
Deborah's wage and price of a magazine are both nominal variables. They are not expressed in terms of any other variable.
In 2013, Deborah's wage is $54.00. The price of a magazine is $18.00 and price of a donut is $6.00.
Relative price is the price price of a good expressed in terms of the other good. The price of magazine in 2013 is $18.00. While, price of donut is $6.00.
[tex]Relative price = \frac{Price of a magazine}{Price of a donut} \\ = \frac{18}{6}\\ = 3[/tex]
Thus, in 2013, the relative price of a magazine is 3 donuts.
As can be seen that from 2008 - 2013, the wage doubles. But at the same time the price of both magazine and donuts also doubles. This can be seen from the relative purchasing power of income. So, between 2008-2013 the nominal value of wage increased and the real value of her wage remained the same.
Monetary neutrality is the proposition that a change in the money supply affects nominal variables and does not affect real variables.
During lunch time, customers arrive at a postal office at a rate of lambda equals 36 per hour. The interarrival time of the arrival process can be approximated with an exponential distribution. Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of mu equals 45 per hour. The service time for the customers can also be approximated with an exponential distribution. For each of the following questions, show your work and use the right notation.
Required:
Determine the utilization factor.
Answer:
the utilization factor is 4 ÷ 5
Explanation:
The computation of the utilization factor is shown below:
given that
Customer arrives at the rate of λ equivalent to the 36 per hour
And, Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of μ equivalent to the 45 per hour
λ = 36 / hour
μ = 45 / hour
Now utilization factor is
P = λ ÷ μ
= 36 ÷ 45
= 4 ÷ 5
Thus, the utilization factor is 4 ÷ 5

Explanation:
Approximately what is the expected dollar rate of return on euro deposits if today's exchange rate is $1.18 per euro, next year's expected exchange rate is $1.10 per euro, and the euro interest rate is 5%?
Answer:
Dollar rate of return = 15.5%
Explanation:
The expected dollar rate would be the dollar equivalent of the future value of the Euro deposit converted at the exchange rate applicable in a years time .
The following steps would suffice
Step 1: Future value of 1 Euro
Future value of 1 Euro at 5% p.a = 1.05 Euro
Step 2: Dollar equivalent of the Euro future value
The Dollar equivalent of 1.05 Euro = 1.05× 1.10=1.155
Step 3: The Dollar rate of return
Dollar rate of return = Future value of deposit($)/initial deposit - 1
= (1.155/1) - 1 × 100
= 15.5%
Dollar rate of return = 15.5%
The CAPM estimate of rs is equal to the risk-free rate, rRF, plus a risk premium that is equal to the risk premium on an average stock, (rM - rRF), scaled up or down to reflect the particular stock's risk as measured by its beta coefficient, bi. This model assumes that a firm's stockholders are ______________ diversified, but if they are ______________ diversified, then the firm's true investment risk would not be measured by _______________- and the CAPM estimate would _______________ the correct value of rs.

The local police department gives a detective test. Everyone who takes the test must have been a police officer for at least five years. The people taking the exam are rated from highest to lowest based on their test scores. If a detective position becomes available, it is filled on the basis of who has the highest score. What best describes this practice?
Answer:
Internal Recruitment/Selection, based on merit.
Explanation:
The local police department gives a Detective test and these are the features of that test;
1. The test is for persons who are already police officers.
This is called internal sourcing / internal recruitment. Instead of having fresh candidates, the police department picked up on employed police officers.
2. Everyone sitting for the test has been a police officer for at least 5 years.
This quality shows that everyone sitting for the test has experience on the job of policing. This also means that the test candidates will be familiar with terms on the test script.
3. The criterion for selection of best candidate is score.
This is a merit selection, hence if an officer of 15 years scores 65% and an officer of 5 years scores 80%, the officer of 5 years takes the vacant detective position.
