R. C. Barker makes purchasing decisions for his company. One product that he buys costs $50 per unit when the order quantity is less than 500. When the quantity ordered is 500 or more, the price per unit drops to $48. The ordering cost is $30 per order and the annual demand is 7,500 units. The holding cost is 10 percent of the purchase cost. If R. C. orders 500 units each time he places an order, what would the total annual holding cost be
Answer:
$1,200
Explanation:
total annual holding cost = average number of units in inventory x annual holding cost per unit
average number of units in inventory = 500 units / 2 = 250 unitsannual holding cost per unit = $48 x 10% = $4.8total annual holding cost = $4.80 x 250 units = $1,200
Total annual holding cost per unit includes all the costs associated to keeping a certain inventory level, e.g. warehouse costs like rent and utilities, salaries of hte employees that work in the warehouse, insurance, etc.

Swifty Corporation borrowed $3240000 on January 1 on a 5-year, 12% note to help finance construction of the building. In addition, the company had outstanding all year a 10%, 3-year, $6380000 note payable and an 11%, 4-year, $12650000 note payable. What is the actual interest for Swifty Corporation
Answer:
Swifty Corporation
The actual interest for Swifty Corporation is:
$2,418,300
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Expenditures were
on March 1, $6,380,000
on June 1, $5,270,000
on December 31 $8,350,000
Borrowings:

Suppose that there are two types of cars, good and bad. The qualities of cars are not observable but are known to the sellers. Risk-neutral buyers and sellers have their own valuation of these two types of cars
Types of Cars Buyers Valuation Seller Valuation
Good (50% probability) 5,000 4,500
Bad ( 50% probability) 3,000 2.500
When a buyer does not observe the quality, what is the highest price she will offer for a used car if she ignores adverse selection?
A. $2,500
B. $3,000
C. $4,000
D. $4,500
Answer:
C. $4,000
Explanation:
If he buyer does not have complete information about the car's quality, he/she will likely offer the expected value for a car = ($3,000 x 50%) + ($5,000 x 50%) = $4,000 car. In this type of scenarios, sellers of lemons (bad cars) are benefited since they are able to get a higher price, but sellers of goods cars are hurt because buyers assume their cars are bad.

Returns are accounted for as they occur, with additional estimated returns accrued at the end of the period. Cost of goods sold totaled $12,600,000 (60% of sales). The company estimates that 8% of all sales will be returned. The year-end adjusting journal entry to account for anticipated sales returns would include a:
Answer:
Credit to refund liability of $280,000.

Todd Mountain Development Corporation is expected to pay a dividend of $3 in the upcoming year. Dividends are expected to grow at the rate of 11% per year. The risk-free rate of return is 8%, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 18%. The stock of Todd Mountain Development Corporation has a beta of 0.80. Using the constant-growth DDM, the intrinsic value of the stock is _________. Multiple Choice 8.80 11.11 27.27 60.00
Answer:
the intrinsic value of the stock is $60
Explanation:
The computation of the intrinsic value of the stock is as follows:
But before that the cost of equity is
The Cost of Equity is
= Risk Free Rate + Beta × (Market Return - Risk Free Rate)
= 8% + 0.80 × (18% - 8%)
= 16%
Now
Intrinsic Value is
= Next year Dividend ÷ (Rate of Return - Growth rate)
= $3 ÷ (16% - 11%)
= $60
hence, the intrinsic value of the stock is $60
Corporation makes an extra large part to use in one its fabulous products. A total of 22,000 units of this extra large part are produced and used every year. The company's costs of producing the extra large part at this level of activity are below:
Per Unit
Direct materials $4.70
Direct labor $9.30
Variable manufacturing overhead $9.80
Supervisor's salary $5.20
Depreciation of special equipment $3.60
Allocated general overhead $8.80
An outside supplier has offered to make the extra large part and sell it to for $31.90 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including the direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the extra large part has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company none of which would be avoided if the part were purchased instead of produced internally. In addition, the space used to make the extra large part could be used to make more of one of the company's other fabulous products, generating an additional segment margin of $34,000 per year for that product (Q). What would be the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for Corp. as a result of buying the extra large part from the outside supplier?
Answer: Financial disadvantage of -$29,800
Explanation:
If extra large part is produced inhouse;
= Direct materials + direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Supervisor's salary + opportunity cost of making other products
= ((4.7 + 9.3 + 9.8 + 5.2) * 22,000) + 34,000
= $672,000
Cost if bought outside;
= 31.90 * 22,000
= $701,800
Financial advantage ( disadvantage) = 672,000 - 701,800
= -$29,800
Perry Freight Co. leased a trailer to Harper Inc. for use in delivering inventory. The finance lease has a 3-year term, 5% implicit rate, and begins on January 1, 2018. The lease requires a down payment of $10,000 and two equal annual lease payments on December 31 of 2018 and 2019. The list price of the trailer on the inception date is $50,000. What is the dollar amount of each annual payment that Perry Freight Co. will receive
Answer: $21512
Explanation:
The dollar amount of each annual payment that Perry Freight Co. will receive will be calculated thus:
Lease Price of trailer = $50,000
Less: Down payment = $10,000
PV = $50,000 - $10,000 = $40,000
The present value will be the value of the annual installments multiplied by the annuity factor. Therefore,
$40,000 = Annual installment × 1.8594
Annual installment = $40,000 / 1.8594
Annual installment = $21512
The dollar amount of each annual payment that Perry Freight Co. will receive is $21512.
The short-run economic outcome resulting from the increase in production costs is known as . Now suppose that the government immediately pursues an accommodative policy by increasing government purchases in response to the short-run economic impact of the severe weather. In the long run, when the government pursues accommodative policy, the output in the economy will be $ billion and the price level will be .
Answer:
The short-run economic outcome resulting from the increase in production costs is known as - Stagflation
Stagflation is a situation in which there is high inflation and high unemployment. In Stagflation, aggregate demand is constricted due to the high costs of goods and services because of an increase in firms' production costs.
Now suppose that the government immediately pursues an accommodative policy by increasing government purchases in response to the short-run economic impact of the severe weather. In the long run, when the government pursues accommodative policy, the output in the economy will be $ billion and the price level will be .
If the government pursues an accommodative policy, also known as an expansionary policy, both the output of the economy and the price level will increase in comparison to the previous numbers.
However, hopefully the level of output will increase proportionally more than the price level, because otherwise, the economic growth will be accompanied by high inflation, leading to an overheated and dysfunctional economy.

Ivanhoe purchased a patent from Vania Co. for $1,240,000 on January 1, 2018. The patent is being amortized over its remaining legal life of 10 years, expiring on January 1, 2028. During 2020, Ivanhoe determined that the economic benefits of the patent would not last longer than 6 years from the date of acquisition. What amount should be reported in the balance sheet for the patent, net of accumulated amortization, at December 31, 2020
Answer: $744,000
Explanation:
The amount that should be reported in the balance sheet for the patent, net of accumulated amortization, at December 31, 2020 will be:
First, we have to calculate the amortization recorded up to 2019. This will be:
= (1,240,000 / 10) x 2
= 248,000
The we calculate the amortization to be recognized in 2020. This will be:
= (1,240,000 – 248,000) / 4
= 248,000
The amount that should be reported in the balance sheet for the patent, net of accumulated amortization, at December 31, 2020 will be:
= 1240000 - 248000 - 248000
= $744,000
Select the incorrect statement regarding upstream and downstream costs. A. Companies normally incur significant downstream costs. B. To be profitable, companies must recover the total cost of developing, producing, and delivering products. C. Pricing decisions must consider both upstream and downstream costs in addition to manufacturing costs. D. Upstream and downstream costs are reported as product costs on the income statement.
Answer:
D. Upstream and downstream costs are reported as product costs on the income statement.
Explanation:
Downstream cost is the cost that are spend by the company when the process of the production is completed or the product is ready for delivery made to the customers so this cost would be considered as a distribution to the marketing
While on the other hand the upstream cost is the cost i.e. spend prior to the process of the production like buying of the raw material, product design & development etc
So the downstream would not be recorded as a product cost but it would be recorded as a period cost in terms of the selling and marketing expense
Therefore the option D is incorrect

Newton Manufacturing has 31,000 labor hours available for producing M and N. Consider the following information: Product M Product N Required labor time per unit (hours) 2 3 Maximum demand (units) 6,500 8,000 Contribution margin per unit $ 5 $ 5.70 Contribution margin per labor hour $ 2.50 $ 1.90 If Newton follows proper managerial accounting practices in terms of setting a production schedule, how much contribution margin would the company expect to generate
Answer:
total contribution margin = $68,500
Explanation:
31,000 hours of labor available
Product M Product N
Required labor time per unit (hours) 2 3
Maximum demand (units) 6,500 8,000
Contribution margin per unit $5 $5.70
Contribution margin per labor hour $2.50 $1.90
since the constraint here is the total number of labor hours, the company must first produce the product that generates the highest contribution margin per labor hour = product M.
total units produced of product M = 6,500
total labor hours required = 6,500 x 2 = 13,000
contribution margin product M = 13,000 x $2.50 = $32,500
remaining labor hours = 31,000 - 13,000 = 18,000
total units of product N produced = 18,000 / 6 = 6,000
contribution margin product N= 18,000 x $2 = $36,000
total contribution margin = $68,500
Even though the moving averages help highlight the long-run trend of a time series, the moving-average model is not designed for making forecasts in the presence of trends. Explain the reason why we should not rely on moving averages for predicting future observations of a trending series.
Answer:
Moving averages cannot be used to make future forecasts successfully because certain events like demand, supply ,quality and external factors such as competitions cannot be determined with the use of Moving averages, and these factors have a huge impact on prices
Explanation:
Moving averages are generated / obtained using data from events that occurred previously hence they highlight the long-run trend of a time series, but they cannot be used to make future forecasts successfully because certain events like demand, supply ,quality and external factors such as competitions cannot be determined with the use of Moving averages. and these factors have a huge impact on prices
An asset was purchased for $147,000.00 on January 1, Year 1 and originally estimated to have a useful life of 8 years with a residual value of $8,500.00. At the beginning of the third year, it was determined that the remaining useful life of the asset was only 4 years with a residual value of $3,000.00. Calculate the third-year depreciation expense using the revised amounts and straight line method.
Answer: $27,343.75
Explanation:
The original yearly depreciation was ;
= (147,000 - 8,500) / 8
= $17,312.50
Value at beginning of Year 3;
= Cost - Accumulated depreciation
= 147,000 - (17,312.50 * 2)
= $112,375
Using the new figures, depreciation per year is now;
= (112,375 - 3,000) / 4
= $27,343.75

One week, Rachel earned $250. She spent $120 on food, $30 on miscellaneous items, and saved the rest. If Rachel makes a pie chart showing how she spends her money, the central angle for the food sector would be __________.
360° = $250
? =.$120
120×360= 43200
43200÷250
=172.8°
Adelberg Company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A is 1,900 units and of Product B is 1,300 units. The company has traditionally used direct labor-hours as the basis for applying all manufacturing overhead to products. Product A requires 0.4 direct labor-hours per unit and Product B requires 0.7 direct labor-hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for next period is $101,075. The company is considering switching to an activity-based costing system for the purpose of computing unit product costs for external reports. The new activity-based costing system would have three overhead activity cost pools--Activity 1, Activity 2, and Order Size--with estimated overhead costs and expected activity as follows:
Expected Activity
Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Costs $ Product A Product B Total
Activity 1 $31,031 1,000 300 1,300
Activity 2 22,249 1,600 300 1,900
Order size 15,476 200 200 400
Total $ 68,756 (Note: The Order Size activity cost pool's costs are allocated on the basis of direct labor-hours.) The predetermined overhead rate under the traditional costing system is closest to:________
a. $11.71 per DLH
b. $38.69 per DLH
c. $171.89 per DLH
d. $23.87 per DLH
Answer:
$60.53 per DLH
Explanation:
Calculation for what the predetermined overhead rate under the traditional costing system is closest to:
First step is to calculate the Direct Labor hours each product
Using this formula
Direct Labor hours=Annual production and sales*Direct Labor hour per unit
Direct Labor hours for Product A=1,900 units*0.4 direct labor-hours per unit
Direct Labor hours for Product A=760
Direct Labor hours for Product B=1,300 units*0.7 direct labor-hours per unit
Direct Labor hours for Product A=910
Second step is to calculate the Total Direct Labor hours for Product for Product A and Product B
Product A and B Total Direct Labor hours for Product =760+910
Product A and B Total Direct Labor hours for Product=1,670
Now let calculate the predetermined overhead rate under the traditional costing system using this formula
Predetermined overhead rate =Estimated Overhead/Activity base(Direct Labor Hours)
Let plug in the formula
Predetermined overhead rate=$101,075/1,670
Predetermined overhead rate=$60.53 per DLH
The predetermined overhead rate under the traditional costing system is closest to:$60.53 per DLH
