On the first day of 2016, Holthausen COmpany acquired the assets of Leftwich Company including several intangible assests. These include a patent on Ledtwicj's primary product, a device called a plentiscope. Leftwich carried the patent on its book for $1,500, but Holthausen believes that the fair value is $200,000. The patent expires in seven years, but companies can be expected to develop competing patents within three years. Holthausen believes that, with expected technlogical improvements, the product is marketable for a t least 20 years.
The registration of the trademark for the Leftwich name is scheduled to expire in 15 years. However, the Leftwich brand name, which Holthausen believes is worth $500,000, could be applied to related products for many years beyond that.
As part of the acquisition, Leftwich's principal researcher left the company. As part of the acquisition, he signed a five-year noncompetition agreement that prevents him from developing competing products. Holthausen paid the scientist $300,000 to sign the agreement.
a. What amount should be capitalized for each of teh identifiable intangible assets?
b. What amount of amortization expense should Holthausen record in 2016 for each asset?
Answer:
Holthausen Company and Leftwich Company
Intangible Assets:
a) Amount to be capitalized:
1) Patent: $200,000
2) Trademark: $500,000
3) Non-competition Agreement: $300,000
b) Amount of Amortization Expense for 2016:
1) Patent: $200,000/7 years = $28,571.43
2) Trademark: $500,000/15 years = $33,333,33
3) Non-competition Agreement: $300,000/5 = $60,000
Explanation:
The fair values of the "plentiscope" patent and Leftwich's branded trademark should be capitalized as intangible assets, while the cost of the non-competition agreement with Leftwich's principal researcher should be capitalized.
For the amortization of the Leftwich-connected intangibles, we have adopted the straight-line method, in the absence of any prescribed method. The patent expiration in 7 years was used as the basis for its useful life, despite Holthausen belief that the product could be marketable for at least 20 years.
The trademark was amortized over its remaining useful life of 15 years as given, while the non-competition agreement was amortized for 5 years when the agreement remains effective.

Mary buys an annuity that promises to pay her $1,500 at the end of each of the next 20 years. The appropriate interest rate is 7.5%. What is the value of this 20-year annuity today?
Answer:
PV= $15,291.74
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Annual cash flow= $1,5000
Number of years= 20
Interest rate= 7.5%
To calculate the present value, first, we need to determine the future value using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual cash flow
FV= {1,500*[(1.075^20) - 1]} / 0.075
FV= $64,957.02
Now, we can calculate the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 64,957.02/(1.075^20)
PV= $15,291.74
On January 1, Beckman, Inc., acquires 60 percent of the outstanding stock of Calvin for $54,480. Calvin Co. has one recorded asset, a specialized production machine with a book value of $10,000 and no liabilities. The fair value of the machine is $78,000, and the remaining useful life is estimated to be 10 years. Any remaining excess fair value is attributable to an unrecorded process trade secret with an estimated future life of 4 years. Calvin’s total acquisition date fair value is $90,800.
At the end of the year, Calvin reports the following in its financial statements:
Revenues 65,550 Machine 13,590 Common stock 10,000
Expenses 29,250 Other assets 27,710 Retained earnings 31,300
Net income 36,300 Total assets 41,300 Total equity 41,300
Dividends paid 5,000
Required:
Determine the amounts that Beckman should report in its year-end consolidated financial statements for noncontrolling interest in subsidiary income, noncontrolling interest, Calvin’s machine (net of accumulated depreciation), and the process trade secret.
Answer:
Beckman noncontrolling interest in subsidiary income $10,520
Calvin Machine (net of accumulated depreciation) $71,200
Explanation:
To calculate noncontrolling interest in subsidiary's income;
Revenue $65,550
Expenses $39,250 (29,250 + $6,800 + $3,200)
Net Income $26,300
Noncontrolling percentage = 40%
NonControlling Income = $10,520
Depreciation of Machine = [tex]\frac{Fair value of Machine - Book value}{estimated useful life}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{78,000 - 10,000}{10 years}[/tex] = 6,800 per annum
Amortization of trade secrets = [tex]\frac{Fair Value Total - Machine value}{Useful life}[/tex]
Amortization of trade secrets = [tex]\frac{90,800 - 78,000}{4 years}[/tex]
= 3,200

The following cost behavior patterns describe anticipated manufacturing costs for 2013: raw material, $8.20/unit; direct labor, $11.20/unit; and manufacturing overhead, $386,400 + $9.20/unit. Required: If anticipated production for 2013 is 42,000 units, calculate the u
Answer:
Note: The missing part of the question is "using variable costing and absorption costing. Explain the difference"
Solution
According to variable costing, the unit cost based was
= $8.20 + $11.20 + $9.20
= $28.6
According to absorption costing,
Total Manufacturing costs= Direct material + Direct labor + Overhead
= $8.20 + $11.20 + ($386,400/42,000 units) + $9.20
= $8.20 + $11.20 + $9.2 + $9.2
= $37.8
The difference between the variable costing and the absorption cost is because the product costing using variable costing method only includes variable costs.
Playa Inc. owns 85 percent of Seashore Inc. During 20X8, Playa sold goods with a 25 percent gross profit to Seashore. Seashore sold all of these goods in 20X8. How should 20X8 consolidated income statement items be adjusted g
Answer:
Debit the Cost of Sales and,
Credit the Revenue.
Explanation:
Transactions that occur within a group of companies must be eliminated. Playa is a Parent (85%) and Seashore Inc is a Subsidiary.
The effect of the Sale by Playa to Seashore is that Group Cost of Sales and Revenue would be over-valued by the price of intragroup sale.
Thus, the adjustment for this intragroup sale, is to Debit the Cost of Sales and Credit the Revenue.

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.8 per machine hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Factory 1
Estimated factory overhead= $18,500,000
Estimated machine hours for year 1,250,000
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= 18,500,000/1,250,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.8 per machine hour
The standard deviation of return on investment A is 25%, while the standard deviation of return on investment B is 20%. If the correlation coefficient between the returns on A and B is −0.260, the covariance of returns on A and B is _________. Multiple Choice –0.2080 –0.0130 0.0130 0.2080
Answer: –0.0130
Explanation:
Correlation given the variance and the standard deviation of the two returns can be calculated by;
Correlation coefficient = Covariance of returns on investment A and B / (Standard deviation of return on investment A * Standard deviation of return on investment B).
Rearranging the formula, Covariance becomes;
Covariance of returns on investment A and B = Correlation coefficient * (Standard deviation of return on investment A * Standard deviation of return on investment B)
Covariance of returns on investment A and B = -0.260 * 0.25 * 0.20
Covariance of returns on investment A and B = –0.0130

Advika is a resident of India who exports hand-dyed fabrics to other nations. Since India has an exchange control system, what does this mean for Advika
Answer: The Reserve Bank of India keeps all of Advika’s foreign currency for her.
Explanation:
When a country uses exchange controls, it limits the amount of foreign currency that can come into a country. This is usually done to ensure stability in the money market of the country as well as to improve the balance of payments for the country.
One way of implementing exchange control is for all foreign currency to go through the Central bank of the country. Should a citizen need access to foreign currency, they would need to apply to the central bank to access it. With India having an exchange control system, the Reserve Bank of India keeps all foreign currency and Advika would have to apply for it should she need it.
Jackpot Mining Company operates a copper mine in central Montana. The company paid $1,150,000 in 2021 for the mining site and spent an additional $630,000 to prepare the mine for extraction of the copper. After the copper is extracted in approximately four years, the company is required to restore the land to its original condition, including repaving of roads and replacing a greenbelt. The company has provided the following three cash flow possibilities for the restoration costs: (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1)
Cash flow Probability

Required:
a. Determine the cost of the copper mine.
b. Prepare the journal entries to record the acquisition costs.
Answer:
a. Determine the cost of the copper mine.
$2,104,430b. Prepare the journal entries to record the acquisition costs.
Date X, 2021, acquisition of copper mine
Dr Copper mine 2,104,430
Cr Cash 1,780,000
Cr Asset retirement liability 324,430
July 1, 2021, acquisition of mining equipment
Dr Equipment 150,000
Cr Cash 150,000
Explanation:
estimated restoration costs = ($330,000 x .25) + ($430,000 x .4) + ($630,000 x .35) = $475,000
now we must adjust the restoration cost and determine its present value = $475,000 x 0.68301 (present value factor, 10%, 4 periods) = $324,430
total cost of copper mine = purchase cost + preparation costs + restoration costs = $1,150,000 + $630,000 + $324,430 = $2,104,430

The burn down chart for a team showed a peculiar trend. It started dropping rapidly at the beginning of the Sprint and then seemed to plateau in the middle. A day before the Sprint, the line dipped rapidly and reached the horizontal axis. Whiat is the most likely reason for this trend?
Answer:
Explanation:
In the scenario being described, it is the most likely that the team encountered a major blocking issue in the middle of the Sprint which was resolved only toward the end. This can be deduced from the graph due to it plateauing in the middle, which usually happens when tasks are not finishing, which ultimately causes a blocking issue and since the chart went back to normal afterwards, they most likely resolved the blocking issue.
1. Peter applied for a job at an accounting firm and a consulting firm. He knows that 50% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the accounting firm; only 40% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the consulting firm Peter also knows that 60% of similarly qualified applicants receive an offer from one firm or the other. Hints: A
Answer:
75%
Explanation:
Assume that:
X is the probability that the Peter, qualified accountant would receive offer from the accounting firm AND
Y is the probability that the Peter, qualified accountant would receive offer from the consulting firm.
Here,
P(X) is 50%, P(Y) is 40% and P(X∪Y) is 60%
Now we want to find P(X/Y) = ?
We also know that:
P(X/Y) = P(X∩Y) STEP1 / P(Y)
By putting values, we have:
P(X/Y) = 0.3 / 0.4 = 0.75 = 75%
Step 1: Find P(X∩Y)
P(X∪Y) = P(X) + P(Y) - P(X∩Y)
This implies that:
P(X∩Y) = P(X) + P(Y) - P(X∪Y)
By putting values we have:
P(X∩Y) = 0.5 + 0.4 - 0.6 = 0.3

Maria, the landlord, refuses to fix a small leak in the roof that was there prior to the current tenant. Juan, the current tenant, has just discovered the leak after a heavy rain. The consequence is that black mold has been forming in the attic for quite some time. Juan still has significant time remaining on his lease. Juan has notified Maria in writing of the mold and leak issue but has received no response. He is concerned about the premises becoming unsafe to live in. It has been 14 days since he emailed her his notification. What are all of Juan’s options if Maria declines to do the repairs? Please discuss all remedies Juan may seek. Please remember to reference the contract and text to support your analysis.
Answer:
Please see answers below
Explanation:
Joan may as well put a call through to Maria in addition to his previous mail. Several remedial options are available to Juan and each has its own merits and demerits. It is proper for the tenant to consider each options carefully and seek legal opinion where necessary. However, if Maria declines to do the repairs, Juan may seek the following remedies
• Repair and deduct remedy . In this type of remedy, a tenant may deduct money that is equivalent of a month's rent to cover the cost of the repair or defect. Rental unit 156 covers a condition whether faulty or substandard rented unit could affect the tenant's health and safety. Since the landlord has refused to do the repair, she is guilty of implied warranty of habitability which includes leak in the roof, gas leak, no running water etc. Also, the tenant may not have to file a lawsuit against the landlord since this type of remedy has legal aid. Other conditions attached in addition to the above are ; the repairs cannot cost more than a month's rent, the tenant cannot use the repair and deduct remedy more that twice in any 12 month period, tenant must have informed the landlord in writing and through calls of the faulty area that requires repair. His family or pets must not be the cause of the faulty area that needed to be repaired etc.
• The abandonment remedy . Here, the tenant could move out of the faulty unit or defective rental unit due to its substandard condition which could affect his health and safety. Where the tenant uses the abandonment remedy judiciously, he is not liable to pay any other rent once he has abandoned or moved out of the defective rental unit. The conditions attached are that; the defects must be serious and directly related to the tenant's health and safety, the tenant or his family must not be the cause of the faulty space that requires repair. Moreover, the tenant must have informed the landlord whether in writing or orally telephone calls of the defects that requires repair.
• The rent withholding remedy. Legally, a tenant could withhold house rent if the landlord fails to take care of serious defects that negates the implied warranty of habitability. Conditions attached to this type of remedy are; the defects to be repaired must have threatened the tenant's safety and wellbeing. Again, the faulty or defective unit must be such that it becomes uninhabitable for the tenant . The tenant, his family or pets must not be the cause of the defects that requires repairs. The tenant must have also notified the landlord either through phone calls on in writing, amongst others.
• The tenant could also file a lawsuit against the landlord to recover the cost expended to fixing the faulty repairs where the landlord was not willing to do so. Conditions that must be met before this option could stand in the court of law are; the rental unit has serious defect that is not safe for living. A housing inspector has inspected the house and found to be short of minimum requirements for habitable place etc. A tenant may seek this type of redress where the option for out of court settlement has failed with the landlord.

WACC and Cost of Common Equity
Kahn Inc. has a target capital structure of 45% common equity and 55% debt to fund its $10 billion in operating assets. Furthermore, Kahn Inc. has a WACC of 12%, a before-tax cost of debt of 10%, and a tax rate of 25%. The company's retained earnings are adequate to provide the common equity portion of its capital budget. Its expected dividend next year (D1) is $3, and the current stock price is $34.
A. What is the company's expected growth rate?
B. If the firm's net income is expected to be $1.6 billion, what portion of its net income is the firm expected to pay out as dividends?
Answer:
A. What is the company's expected growth rate?
current stock price = expected dividend / (required rate of return - growth rate)
$34 = $3 / (12% - g)
12% - g = $3 / $34 = 8.82%
growth rate = 12% - 8.82% = 3.18%
B. If the firm's net income is expected to be $1.6 billion, what portion of its net income is the firm expected to pay out as dividends?
WACC = (equity x Re) + [debt x cost of debt x (1 - tax rate)]
12% = (45% x Re) + (55% x 10% x 0.75) = 0.45Re + 4.125%
0.45Re = 12% - 4.125% = 7.875%
Re = 7.875% / .45 = 17.5%
growth rate = (net income / equity) x (1 - dividend payout ratio)
3.18% = ($1.6 billion / $4.5 billion) x (1 - dividend payout ratio)
3.18% = 0.3556 x (1 - dividend payout ratio)
1 - dividend payout ratio = 3.18 / 0.3556 = 0.089
dividend payout ratio = 1 - 0.089 = 0.911
this means that the company distribute 91.1% of its net income to its stockholders
Suppose you have $1,500 and plan to purchase a 5-year certificate of deposit (CD) that pays 3.5% interest, compounded annually. How much will you have when the CD matures
Answer:
$ 1,781.53
Explanation:
The future value of the 5-year CD can be determined by using the future value formula stated below:
FV=PV*(1+r)^n
FV is the future value which is expected future amount after 5 years
PV is the initial amount used in purchasing the CD i.e $1500
r is the rate of return on the CD on an annual basis which is 3.5%
n is the number of years the investment would last which is 5 years
FV=$1500*(1+3.5%)^5
FV=$1500*1.187686306
FV=$ 1,781.53

Mountain High Ice Cream Company transferred $65,000 of accounts receivable to the Prudential Bank. The transfer was made with recourse. Prudential remits 90% of the factored amount to Mountain High and retains 10% to cover sales returns and allowances. When the bank collects the receivables, it will remit to Mountain High the retained amount (which Mountain estimates has a fair value of $5,500). Mountain High anticipates a $3,500 recourse obligation. The bank charges a 3% fee (3% of $65,000), and requires that amount to be paid at the start of the factoring arrangement.
Required:
Prepare the journal entry to record the transfer on the books of Mountain High assuming that the sale criteria are met.
Answer:
Dr Cash 56,550
Dr Receivable from factor 5,500
Dr Loss on sale of receivables 6,450
Cr Accounts receivables 65,000
Cr Recourse liability 3,500
Explanation:
cash = ($65,000 x 90%) - factoring fees = $58,500 - $1,950 = $56,550
factoring fees = $65,000 x 3% = $1,950
loss on sale of receivables (includes factoring fees) = (accounts receivables + recourse liability) - (cash + receivable from factor) = ($65,000 + $3,500) - ($56,550 + $5,500) = $68,500 - $62,050 = $6,450

$229,000
$234,000
$231,000
$236,000
Answer:
$234,000
Explanation:
cost of goods manufactured = beginning work in process + direct materials + direct labor + manufacturing overhead cost applied - ending work in process
cost of goods manufactured = $25,000 + $65,000 + $95,000 + $69,000 - $20,000 = $234,000
cost of goods sold = beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory + underapplied overhead
cost of goods sold = $54,000 + $234,000 - $58,000 + $2,000 = $232,000
