Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials: 5 pounds at $8.00 per pound $40.00
The planning budget for March was based on producing and selling 25,000 units.
a)
The material cost included in the planning budget is the standard cost multiplied for the budgeted production.
Direct material requiered= 25,000*5= 100,000 pounds
Standard cost per pound= $5
Direct material budget= 100,000*5= $500,000
b)
The raw material's flexible budget adapts to the actual production level.
Direct material flexible budget= standard cost*actual material used in production
Direct material flexible budget= 5*160,000
Direct material flexible budget= $800,000
c)
To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (5 - 7.5)*160,000
Direct material price variance= $400,000 unfavorable
If Morgan Industries issued a Credit Memorandum on January 20 for a return of $1,100 of merchandise purchased on account by Doug Bowen, plus 6 percent sales tax, the credit memorandum total would be:
Answer:
1166
Explanation:
Morgan industries issued a credit
memorandum of $1100 on January 20th
They also have 6% tax sales
= 6/100 × 1100
= 0.06×1100
= 66
Therefore the total credit memorandum can be calculated as follows
= 1100+66
= 1,166
Hence the credit memorandum total is $1166
Cabinaire Inc. is one of the largest manufacturers of office furniture in the United States. In Grand Rapids, Michigan, it assembles filing cabinets in an Assembly Department. Assume the following information for the Assembly Department:
Direct labor per filing cabinet 20 minutes
Supervisor salaries $117,000 per month
Depreciation $21,000 per month
Direct labor rate $15 per hour
Required:
Prepare a flexible budget for 12,000, 15,000, and 18,000 filing cabinets for the month of March
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Supervisor salaries $117,000 per month
Depreciation $21,000 per month
Direct labor rate $15 per hour
Cabinets per hour= 60/20= 3
We need to determine the flexible budget for different production levels:
12,000 units:
Total direct labor hours= (12,000 / 3)= 4,000 hours
Total variable cost= 4,000*15= 60,000
Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00
Total cost= $198,000
15,000 units:
Total direct labor hours= (15,000 / 3)= 5,000 hours
Total variable cost= 5,000*15= 75,000
Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00
Total cost= $213,000
18,000 units:
Total direct labor hours= (18,000 / 3)= 6,000 hours
Total variable cost= 6,000*15= 90,000
Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00
Total cost= $228,000

Explanation:
The Brisbane Manufacturing Company produces a single model of a CD player. Each player is sold for $182 with a resulting contribution margin of $71. Brisbane's management is considering a change in its quality control system. Currently, Brisbane spends $42,000 a year to inspect the CD players. An average of 1,900 units turn out to be defective: 1,520 of them are detected in the inspection process and are repaired for $75. If a defective CD player is not identified in the inspection process, the customer who receives it is given a full refund of the purchase price. The proposed quality control system involves the purchase of an x-ray machine for $210,000. The machine would last for five years and would have salvage value at that time of $18,000. Brisbane would also spend $470,000 immediately to train workers to better detect and repair defective units. Annual inspection costs would increase by $25,000. Brisbane expects this new control system to reduce the number of defective units to 400 per year. 350 of these defective units would be detected and repaired at a cost of only $41 per unit. Customers who still receive defective players will be given a refund equal to 120% of the purchase price.

Hernandez Company has 350,000 shares of $10 par value common stock outstanding. During the year, Hernandez declared a 10% stock dividend when the market price of the stock was $30 per share. Four months later Hernandez declared a $.50 per share cash dividend. As a result of the dividends declared during the year, retained earnings decreased by:_______.
a. $1,242,500.
b. $525,000.
c. $192,500.
d. $175,000.
Answer:
b. $525,000.
Explanation:
Dividends distributions are always made out of the distributable profits found in the Retained Earnings.
The first step thus is to calculate the amount of dividends distributed.
1st Declaration :
Dividends = 350,000 shares x $10 x 10% = $350,000
2nd Declaration :
Dividends = 350,000 shares x $0.50 = $175,000
Therefore,
Total Dividends = $350,000 + $175,000 = $525,000
Conclusion :
As a results of the dividends distribution, retained earnings decreased by $525,000.

Descendants Corporation is a growth firm that recently had its IPO. It is not currently paying dividends and its first dividend is expected in year 5. After this, it is expected to offer dividends with growth rates of 15% for two years. After this time, it is expected to reach stable growth with a dividend growth rate of 4% forever. If the dividend discount model is used to value the stock, in what year does the horizon value from stable growth belong
Answer:
year 7
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) is used to determine the value of stock by discounting the dividend to derive the present value of the stock.
Types of DDM
1.two stage : one stage of rapid growth and a stage of constant growth
3. three stage : one stage of super normal growth, followed by a stage of normal growth and then constant growth
For this company
first 5 years = o dividends
next 2 years = 15%
7th year - constant growth
Shortcomings of the DDM
It doesn't take a control perspective
It is unsuitable for firms that don't pay dividends

Journal entry :
Debit : Cash $130,000
Credit : Revenue - 4 - door Sedan $128,000
Credit : Revenue - Cash incentive $2,000
Explanation:
It is important to identify the step in IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which is affected by the question.
Here, Step 2 - Identify the performance obligation in the contract, Step 3 - Determine the Transaction Price, Step 4 - Allocate the Transaction Price to the Performance obligation and Step 5 - Recognize the Revenue as or when the Performance Obligation is Satisfied. These are explained and applied as follows :
Step 2 - Identify the performance obligation in the contract.
Here, identify the individual promises (Performance Obligations) that the entity has committed to transfer to the customer.
Also the entity identifies each performance obligation that is distinct, or a series of distinct Goods or Services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer.
So, the performance obligations are as follows :
4 - door Sedan and the 3 years maintenance contract(these can not be consumed independently from one another)Cash incentive (can be consumed independently from the rest of the performance obligations)Step 3 - Determine the Transaction Price
Transaction price is the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange of goods or services transferred to the customer.
Transaction Price is $6,500 ($6,000 + $400 + $100)
Step 4 - Allocate the Transaction Price to the Performance obligation
Allocation of Transaction Price is done based on Stand Alone Selling Prices.
Stand alone selling prices have already been identified :
4 - door Sedan and the 3 years maintenance contract = $6,400Cash incentive = $100Step 5 - Recognize the Revenue as or when the Performance Obligation is Satisfied
Stand alone for 20 vehicles :
4 - door Sedan and the 3 years maintenance contract = $6,400 x 20 = $128,000Cash incentive = $100 x 20 = $2,000Journal entry :
Debit : Cash $130,000
Credit : Revenue - 4 - door Sedan $128,000
Credit : Revenue - Cash incentive $2,000
A company is planning to expand its production from its current price (1050 PKR/unit) and getting a total revenue of 37800/PKR at a fixed cost of 1000/- PKR and variable cost of 1050/- PKR. If currently the company is producing 36 units, how many further units can the company make while staying in profit if the appreciation in variable cost (2.13) and depression in price (2.13) per unit from the previous unit
The company can only produce up to 18 units while staying in profit considering the appreciation in variable cost and the depression in price.
The company is planning to expand its production and get a total revenue of 37800/PKR at a fixed cost of 1000/- PKR and a variable cost of 1050/- PKR.
Currently, the company is producing 36 units, and the current price per unit is 1050 PKR/unit.
The total revenue for the current production will be 36 units × 1050 PKR/unit = 37800 PKR.
Since the total revenue is equal to the sum of fixed cost and variable cost, it implies that;
Total Revenue = Fixed Cost + Variable Cost
Multiplying both sides by the number of units gives;
Total Revenue × Number of Units = Fixed Cost × Number of Units + Variable Cost × Number of Units
Rearranging gives;
Variable Cost × Number of Units = Total Revenue × Number of Units
Fixed Cost × Number of Units
Substituting with values from the problem statement, we have;
Variable Cost × Number of Units = 37800 × Number of Units - 1000 × Number of Units
Variable Cost × Number of Units = (37800 - 1000) × Number of Units Variable Cost × Number of Units = 36800 × Number of Units
But the variable cost is given as 1050 PKR/unit.
Therefore, we can write;
1050 × Number of Units = 36800 × Number of Units
1050 = 36800
Since the price of production has depreciated by 2.13, the current price per unit is equal to;
1050/2.13 = 493 PKR/unit
For the company to make a profit, the total revenue must be greater than the total cost.
Therefore; Total Revenue > Fixed Cost + Variable Cost
Multiplying both sides by the number of units gives;
Total Revenue × Number of Units > Fixed Cost × Number of Units + Variable Cost × Number of Units
Substituting with values from the problem statement, we have;
37800 × Number of Units > 1000 × Number of Units + 1050 × Number of Units37800 > 2050 × Number
Units Solving for the number of units;
Number of Units < 37800/2050Number of Units < 18.44 units
Therefore, the company can only produce up to 18 units while staying in profit considering the appreciation in variable cost and the depression in price.

Which of the following arguments can be used to correctly defend the WTO’s position on retaliatory tariffs? Check all that apply. A countervailing duty protects import-competing producers. Convincing the government to impose antidumping duties is less costly than facing fair competition. Accusing foreign firms of dumping is less costly than producing goods competitively.
Answer:
The arguments that can be used to correctly defend the WTO's position on retaliatory tariffs are:
Convincing the government to impose antidumping duties is less costly than facing fair competition.
Accusing foreign firms of dumping is less costly than producing goods competitively.
Explanation:
A government can impose anti-dumping duties on certain imports when it believes that the prices of the imports are below their fair market values. Truly, some exports have been found to export goods at prices significantly below their domestic market prices. Dumping shows that the export prices may even be below their production costs.

On January 1, Year 2, Kincaid Company's Accounts Receivable and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts carried balances of $76,000 and $4,000, respectively. During Year 2, Kincaid reported $215,000 of credit sales, wrote off $2,100 of receivables as uncollectible, and collected cash from receivables amounting to $271,100. Kincaid estimates that it will be unable to collect one percent (1%) of credit sales. What effect will the entry to recognize the uncollectible accounts expense for Year 2 have on the elements of the financial statements
Answer:
The effect the entry to recognize the uncollectible accounts expense for Year 2 will have on the elements of the financial statements are that it will reduce Accounts Receivable to $15,560 and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts to $1,900 at the end of Year 2.
Explanation:
Credit sales estimated to be uncollectable = Credit sales * Estimated percentage uncollectable = $215,000 * 1% = $2,150
Ending account receivable = Beginning accounts receivable + Credit sales - Cash collected - Receivales written off as uncollectable - Credit sales estimated to be uncollectable = $76,000 + $215,000 - $271,100 - $2,100 - $2,150 = $15,560
Ending Allowance for Doubtful Accounts = Beginning Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Receivales written off as uncollectable = $4,000 - $2,100 = $1,900
Therefore, the effect the entry to recognize the uncollectible accounts expense for Year 2 will have on the elements of the financial statements are that it will reduce Accounts Receivable to $15,560 and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts to $1,900 at the end of Year 2.

A cement manufacturer has supplied the following data: Tons of cement produced and sold 263,000 Sales revenue $ 1,104,600 Variable manufacturing expense $ 432,000 Fixed manufacturing expense $ 229,000 Variable selling and administrative expense $ 94,000 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 219,000 Net operating income $ 130,600 What is the company's unit contribution margin?
Answer:
$2.2 per unit
Explanation:
With regards to the above and to compute the company's unit contribution margin, we need to first calculate the total contribution margin
Total contribution margin
= Sales revenue - Variable manufacturing expenses - Variable selling and administrative expenses
= $1,104,600 - $432,000 - $94,000
= $578,600
Therefore, the company's unit contribution margin
= Total contribution margin ÷ Number of units produced and sold
= $578,000 ÷ 263,000
= $2.2 per unit

What macroeconomic goal is Real GDP used to measure for?
Answer: Economic growth
Explanation:
Some of the macroeconomic goals that we've include economic growth, low inflation, low unemployment, improvement on standard of living, balance of payment equilibrium etc.
Real gross domestic product refers to the measure of the output in an economy with the inflation in the economy taken into consideration and it has been adjusted with respect to the inflation. The real gross domestic product measures the economic growth rate.
A proposed new project has projected sales of $219,000, costs of $96,000, and depreciation of $26,000. The tax rate is 23 percent. Calculate operating cash flow using the four different approaches. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) Top-down
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the operating cash flow using the four different approaches is shown below:
1. EBIT + depreciation - taxes approach
But before that the net income would be
Sales $219,000
Less cost -$96,000
Less depreciation -$26,000
EBT $97,000
Less tax at 23% -$22,310
Net income $74,690
Now the operating cash flow is
= EBIT + depreciation - taxes
= $97,000 $26,000 - $22,310
= $100,690
2. top down approach
= Sales - cost - taxes
= $219,000 - $96,000 - $22,310
= $100,690
3. Tax shield approach
= (Sales - cost) × (1 - tax rate) + tax rate × depreciation expense
= ($219,000 - $96,000) × 0.23 + 0.23 × $26,000
= $94,710 + $5,980
= $100,690
4. Bottom up approach
= Net income + depreciation
= $74,690 + $26,000
= $100,690
Levelor Company's flexible budget shows $10,630 of overhead at 75% of capacity, which was the operating level achieved during May. However, the company applied overhead to production during May at a rate of $2.10 per direct labor hour based on a budgeted operating level of 6,040 direct labor hours (90% of capacity). If overhead actually incurred was $11,095 during May, the controllable variance for the month was:
Answer:
$1,589 favorable
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what the controllable variance for the month was:
Using this formula
Overhead Controllable Variance =(Budgeted overhead per unit x standard number of units) - Actual overhead expense
Let plug in the formula
Controllable variance=(6,040*$2.10)-$11,095
Controllable variance=$12,684-$11,095
Controllable variance=$1,589 favorable
Therefore the controllable variance for the month was:$1,589 favorable
Suppose the own price elasticity of demand for good X is -3, its income elasticity is -2, its advertising elasticity is 4, and the cross-price elasticity of demand between it and good Y is -2. Determine how much the consumption of this good will change if: Instructions: Enter your responses as percentages. Include a minus (-) sign for all negative answers. a. The price of good X decreases by 7 percent. percent b. The price of good Y increases by 10 percent. percent c. Advertising decreases by 2 percent. percent d. Income increases by 4 percent. percent Prev
Answer:
a. 21 percent
b. -20 percent
c. -8 percent
d. -8 percent
Explanation:
Own price elasticity = -3
Income elasticity = -2
Advertising elasticity= 4
Cross price elasticity = -2
Formula for elasticity is given by,
[tex]Elasticity = \frac{Percentage change in Quantity}{Percentage change in factor}[/tex]
a. When price of good X decreases by 7 percent.
[tex]Elasticity = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{Percent change in own price}[/tex]
[tex]-3 = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{-7}[/tex]
[tex]Percent change in quantity = (-3) * (-7) = 21[/tex]
Thus, as price decreases by 7% quantity rises by 21%.
b. The price of good Y increases by 10 percent.
[tex]Corss- price elasticity = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{Percent change in Price of good Y} \\ -2 = \frac{Percent change in quantity }{10} \\Percent change in quantity = (-2) * (10) \\ = -20[/tex]
Thus, as price of good Y increases by 10 percent, demand for good X falls by 20 percent.
c. Advertising decreases by 2 percent.
[tex]Elasticity = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{Percent change in advertising} \\4 = \frac{Percent change in quantity }{-2} \\Percent change in quantity = (-2) * (4) \\ = -8[/tex]
Thus, a 2 percent decline in advertising will lead to a 8 percent fall in quantity of good X.
d. Income increases by 4 percent.
[tex]Income elasticity = \frac{Percent change in quantity }{Percent change in income}\\-2 = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{4} \\Percent change in quantity = (-2) * (4) \\ = -8\\[/tex]
Thus, when income increases by 4 percent, quantity decreases by 8 percent.
SUV Company is considering producing a line of luxury SUVs. Currently, SUV Company sells 4,200 standard SUVs annually for $45,400 each. They expect that they would sell 5,600 luxury SUVs for $80,500. If SUV Company produces the line of luxury SUVs, then they expect to only sell 3,300 standard SUVs. What is the incremental revenue generated from the potential project
Answer:
SUV Company
The incremental revenue generated from the potential project is:
= $409,940,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Selling price of Standard SUVs = $45,400
Number of Standard SUVs sold annually = 4,200
Luxury SUVs' price per unit = $80,500
Number of Luxury SUVs expected to be sold = 5,600
Reduced number of Standard SUVs sold as a result = 3,300
Lost sales of Standard SUVs = 900 (4,200 - 3,300)
The incremental revenue generated from the potential project is:
Sale revenue from Luxury SUVs = $450,800,000 ($80,500 * 5,600)
Lost revenue from lost sale of
Standard SUVs = 40,860,000 ($45,400 * 900)
Incremental revenue generated = $409,940,000
b) The incremental revenue is the additional revenue generated from the introduction of the Luxury SUVs, excluding the lost revenue from the non-sale of Standard SUVs as a result of the introduction.
