Answer:
a.
Break even in units = 8750 units
b.
Break even in units = 10000 units
Explanation:
The break even in units is the number of units that a business must sell in order to for its total revenue to be equal to total costs and for it to break even. The break even in units is calculated as follows,
Break even in units = Fixed Costs / Contribution margin per unit
Where,
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
a. Past Year
Break even in units = 70000 / (40 - 32)
Break even in units = 8750 units
b. Coming Year
The property taxes which are a fixed cost will increase by $10000. Thus total fixed cost for coming year will be = 10000 + 70000 = 80000
Break even in units = 80000 / (40 - 32)
Break even in units = 10000 units
Pickering Financial Management believes that the biotechnology industry is a good investment and is considering investing in one of two companies. However, one company, BrightWorid, Inc., uses the FIFO method of inventory, and another company, BioTech, Inc., uses LIFO. Because the companies use two different methods and because BioTech is a much larger company, it is difficult to compare their net incomes to see which is a better investment. The following information about the two companies is available from their annual reports:
BrightWorid, Inc.
2018 2017
Inventory $ 96,000 $ 80,000
Cost of goods sold. 1,144,000 913,000
Sales....... 1,760,000 1,660,000
Net income 197,000 190,000
BioTech, Inc. 2018 2017
Inventory (See Note), 344,000 $ 299,000
Cost of goods sold 3,864,000 4,224,000
Sales 7,360,000 7,040,000
Net income 830,000 730,000
Notes to the Financial Statement. If BioTech had used the FIFO method, inventory would have been $21.000 higher at the end of 2017 and $26,000 higher at the end of 2018.
To better compare the two companies, Pickering wants you to prepare the following analysis.
Showthe computation of BioTech's cost of goods sold in 2018 using the LIFO method.
Prepare summary journal entries for 2018 for BioTech's purchases of inventory (assume all purchases are on account), sales (assume all are on account), and cost of goods sold. A T- account has been set up for inventory. Post these transactions into the T-account. The company uses the perpetual inventory method.
Show the computation of BioTech's cost of goods sold for 2018 using the FIFO method.
Compute the gross profit percentage for 2018 for both BrightWorid and BioTech using FIFO figures for both.
Compute the inventory turnover for 2018 for both BrightWorid and BioTech using FIFO figures for both.

Changes in Growth and Stock Valuation Consider a firm that had been priced using a 10 percent growth rate and a 13 percent required rate. The firm recently paid a $2.40 dividend. The firm has just announced that because of a new joint venture, it will likely grow at a 11 percent rate. How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage)
Answer:
Change in dollars $45.20
Change in percentage 51.36%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage)
First step is to calculate the Price before change
Price before change= ($2.40*1.10)/(.13 - .10)
Price before change = $2.64/0.03
Price before change = $88
Second step is to calculate Price after change
Price after change=($2.40*1.11)/(.13 - .11)
Price after change=$2.664/0.02
Price after change = $133.2
Now let calculate the in dollars and percentage
Change in dollars=$133.2 -$88
Change in dollars=$45.20
Change in percentage=$45.20/$88
Change in percentage=0.5136*100
Change in percentage=51.36%
Therefore How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage) will be :
Change in dollars $45.20
Change in percentage 51.36%

a. $500 is recognized in year 1, $6,000 in year 2, and $2,500 in year 3.
b. $500 is recognized in year 1 and $8,500 in year 2.
c. $9,000 is recognized in year 3.
d. $2,500 is recognized in year 1 and $6,500 in year 2.
e. $9,000 is recognized in year 1.
Answer:
b) $500 is recognized in year 1 and $8,500 in year 2.
Explanation:
Calculation to determine When must Colbert recognize the income if his accounting methods are selected to minimize income recognition?
Calculation for amount recognized in year 1
Payment in year 1= $9,000 ÷ 18 months
Payment in year 1= $500
Therefore Based on the above calculation the amount recognized in year 1 will be $500
Calculation for the amount recognized in year 2
Payment in year 2 = $9,000 - $500
Payment in year 2= $8,500
Therefore The amount recognized in year 2 will be $8,500

Materials quantity variance=900*$1.50
Materials quantity variance=$1,350 U
Therefore the Materials quantity variance is $1,350 Unfavorable
You purchased five August 13 futures contracts on soybeans at a price quote of 1056′6. Each contract is for 5,000 bushels with the price quoted in cents and 1/8 ths of a cent per bushel. Assume the contract price is 1061′4 when you close out your contract six weeks from now. What will be your total profit or loss on this investment? A) $6,480.75 B) $1,187.50 C) $950.25 D) $24,000.00 E) $16,200.50
Answer:
B) $1,187.50
Explanation:
The computation of the total profit or loss on this investment is given below:
Expiration price = 1061'4 = 1061 + 4 ÷ 8 = 1061.50
Quoted price = 1056'6 = 1056 + 6 ÷ 8 = 1056.75
Now the profit is
= (1061.50 - 1056.75) × 5000 × 5
= $1,187.50
Hence, the profit on this investment is $1,187.50
Identify which economic indicator should be used to track each of the following. a. The overall size of the economy the unemployment rate real GDP nominal GDP real GDP growth b. Labor market performance inflation business confidence the unemployment rate consumer confidence c. The future trajectory of economic activity the employment cost index real GDP inflation annual growth of the S&P 500 d. Wages and benefits business confidence real GDP the employment cost index consumer confidence
Answer:
a. The overall size of the economy ⇒ real GDP
The real GDP is adjusted for inflation and so would show the overall size of the economy in more accurate terms.
b. Labor market performance ⇒ the unemployment rate
The unemployment rate is best used to show how the labor market is performing because it shows the amount of people who are employed and those who are not in a given period.
c. The future trajectory of economic activity ⇒ annual growth of the S&P 500
The S&P 500 shows the performance of 500 large companies in the U.S. Their performance can be used to anticipate the trajectory of future economic activity because they influence the economy due to their large size.
d. Wages and benefits ⇒ the employment cost
The employment cost shows the wages and benefits that have to be paid to labor.

A company purchases a 17,160-square-foot commercial building for $385,000 and spends an additional $56,000 to divide the space into two separate rental units and prepare it for rent. Unit A, which has the desirable location on the corner and contains 3,510 square feet, will be rented for $1.00 per square foot. Unit B contains 13,650 square feet and will be rented for $0.60 per square foot. How much of the joint cost should be assigned to Unit B using the value basis of allocation
Answer: $308,700
Explanation:
First find proportion of rental income that comes from Unit B out of the total:
= (13,650 * 0.60) / [(3,510 * 1) + (13,650 * 0.60)]
= 8,190 / 11,700
= 70%
Joint cost = 385,000 + 56,000
= $441,000
Proportion to be assigned to Unit B:
= 441,000 * 70%
= $308,700
Meiji Isetan Corp. of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions follow: Division Osaka Yokohama Sales $ 10,200,000 $ 32,000,000 Net operating income $ 816,000 $ 3,200,000 Average operating assets $ 2,550,000 $ 16,000,000 Required: 1. For each division, compute the return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover. 2. Assume that the company evaluates performance using residual income and that the minimum required rate of return for any division is 17%. Compute the residual income for each division. 3. Is Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income an indication that it is better managed?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
1. The return on investment for Osaka will be:
= (816000/10200000) × (10200000 × 2550000)
= 32%
The return on investment for Yokohama will be:
= (3200000/32000000) × (32000000/16000000)
= 20%
2. See attachment
3. Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income is not an indication that it is better managed. Since Yokohama Division is bigger than Osaka Division, it's expected that Yokohama will have a greater residual amount.
When bonds are issued at a discount and the effective interest method is used for amortization, at each subsequent interest payment date, the cash paid is:
Question Completion:
A. More than the effective interest.
B. Less than the effective interest.
C. Equal to the effective interest.
D. More than if the bonds had been sold at a premium
Answer:
When bonds are issued at a discount and the effective interest method is used for amortization, at each subsequent interest payment date, the cash paid is:
B. Less than the effective interest.
Explanation:
This cash payment is the product of the bond's face value multiplied by the coupon rate. The interest expense is increased by the amortized portion of the discount for the particular period. This means that the interest expense will be higher than the cash payment for interest because of the discount granted at issuance. And the interest expense is the product of the outstanding debt multiplied by the effective interest rate.
The cash paid would be less than the effective interest at each subsequent interest payment date when bonds are issued at a discount and the effective interest method is used for amortization.
The cash payment is computed by multiplying the face value of the bond with coupon rate. Here, an increase in interest expense is seen due to the discount in the amortized part.
Thus, the payment of interest would exceed means that the interest the payments in cash due to the issuance of the bond at discount.

Three types of chairs are included in the carload. The three types and the estimated selling price for each are listed below.
Type No. of Chairs Estimated Selling
Price Each
Lounge chairs 880 $90
Armchairs 660 80
Straight chairs 1,540 50
During 2020, Sarasota sells 440 lounge chairs, 220 armchairs, and 264 straight chairs.
What is the amount of gross profit realized during 2020? What is the amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs on December 31, 2020?
Answer:Gross profit realized during 2020 =$30,899
amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs on December 31, 2020 =$63,800
Explanation:
A)Vaughn Furniture Company purchases a carload of wicker chairs at a cost of a lump sum of $131,670 in 2020
Now the total number of chairs purchased per type is;
Lounge chairs 880
Armchairs 660
Straight chairs 1,540
Total = 3,080 chairs purchased
Also, Vaughn sells
440 Lounge chairs at $90 each = 440 x 90=$39,600
220 Armchairs at $80 each= 220 x 80 =$ 17600
264 Straight chairs at $50 each = 264 x 50 =$13,200
Total selling price of 924 chairs =$39,600+$ 17600+$13,200 =$70,400
Now , if 3,080 chairs can be purchased for a-lump sum amount of $131,670
924 chairs can be puchased in a lump sum of (924 x 131,670) /3080
=$39,501
Remember that the Selling price for 924 chairs =$70,400
Gross profit realized during 2020 = $70,400 -$39,501=$30,899
b).
Estimated Selling Price value for straight chair =$50
Straight chairs remaining= 1540-264=1276
1276 at $50 each = 1276 X 50 =$63,800

(a) Prepare an income statement in accordance with absorption costing.
(b) Prepare an income statement in accordance with variable costing.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.
The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).
a) First, we need to calculate the unitary production cost under absorption costing:
Unitary production cost= (575,000 / 50,000) + (80,000 / 50,000)
Unitary production cost= $13.1
Now, the absorption costing income statement:
Sales= 42,000*18= 756,000
COGS= 13.1*42,000= (550,200)
Gross profit= 205,800
Total Selling and administrative expenses= (45,500)
Net operating income= 160,300
b) First, we need to calculate the total unitary variable cost:
Total unitary variable cost= (575,000/50,000) + (35,000 / 42,000)
Total unitary variable cost= $12.33
Now, the income statement:
Sales= 756,000
Total variable cost= 12.33*42,000= (517,860)
Total contribution margin= 238,140
Fixed overhead= (80,000)
Fixed selling and administrative= (10,500)
Net operating income= 147,640
ect the degree of leverage that completes the following sentence. Thedegree of operating leverage (DOL) is the percentage change in EPS that results from a given percentage change in sales, and it equals the product of the degrees of operating and financial leverage. Expert Analysts Resources (EAR) has provided you with the following information about three companies you are currently evaluating: Praxis Corp. Three Waters Co. Axis Chemical Co. Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) 2.0 3.0 3.0 Degree of Financial Leverage (DFL) 6.5 4.0 3.5 According to this information, which company would be considered the riskiest
Answer: Praxis Corp
Explanation:
To know the company that would be considered the riskiest, we've to calculate the degree of total leverage for each firm and this will be:
Praxis Corp:
Degree of total leverage = Degree of operating leverage × Degree of financial leverage
= 2.0 × 6.5
= 13.0
Three Waters Co.
Degree of total leverage = Degree of operating leverage × Degree of financial leverage
= 3.0 × 4.0
= 12.0
Axis Chemical Co.
Degree of total leverage = Degree of operating leverage × Degree of financial leverage
= 3.0 × 3.5
= 10.5
Based on the calculation, since the degree of total leverage for Praxis Corp is the highest, it simply means that it's the riskiest.

Sunland Company is unsure of whether to sell its product assembled or unassembled. The unit cost of the unassembled product is $24 and Sunland would sell it for $62. The cost to assemble the product is estimated at $26 per unit and the company believes the market would support a price of $87 on the assembled unit. What decision should Sunland make
Answer: Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit.
Explanation:
To solve the above question, we need to calculate the incremental profit or loss first. This will be:
= After assembling sales value - Unassembled unit sales value - Coat if further processing
= $87 - $62 - $26
= -$1
Since there is an incremental loss of $1, then the correct answer is "Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit".
