Total costs allocated      0              0             0 $56,555 $116,045 $172,600

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Usage data:

                      Repairs     HR       IT     M1      M2

Repairs                            0%     0%   40%   60%

HR                     10%       __     20%   35%   35%

IT                        0%       10%    __     20%   70%

HR Costs = $55,600:

Repairs = $5,560 ($55,600 * 10%)

IT = $11,120 ($55,600 * 20%)

M1 = $19,460 ($55,600 * 35%)

M2 = $19,460 ($55,600 * 35%)

IT costs = $92,120:

Repairs = $0 ($92,120 * 0%)

M1 = $20,471 ($92,120 * 20/90)

m2 = $71,649 ($92,120 * 70/90)

Repair costs = $41,560:

M1 = $16,624 ($41,560 * 40%)

M2 = $24,936 ($41,560 * 60%)

Answer 2

Answer:

HR allocation:

$3,960 = 0.10 × $39,600

$7,920 = 0.20 × $39,600

$13,860 = 0.35 × $39,600

$13,860 = 0.35 × $39,600

 

IT allocation:

$52,920 cost of IT is $45,000 (direct cost) + $7,920 (allocated from HR)

 

$11,760 = 0.2 × $52,920

(0.2 + 0.7)  

$41,160 = 0.7 × $52,920

(0.2 + 0.7)

 

Repairs allocation:

$23,960 cost of Repair is $20,000 (direct cost) + $3,960 (allocated from HR)

$9,584 = 0.40 × $23,960

$14,376 = 0.60 × $23,960

Explanation:

Ford Motor Company is considering launching a new line of hybrid diesel-electric SUVs. The heavy advertising expenses associated with the new SUV launch would generate operating losses of million next year. Without the new SUV, Ford expects to earn pre-tax income of $80 million from operations next year. Ford pays a 35% tax rate on its pre-tax income. The amount that Ford Motor Company owes in taxes next year without the launch of the new SUV is closest to ________ million.

Answers

Answer:

$28 million

Explanation:

Without the new SUV, Ford expects to earn pre-tax income of $80 million next year. Now as the SUV is not launched, we would not account for operating losses of $35 million next year. So, the Ford pays taxes on pre-tax income of $80 million next year without the new SUV launch.

The amount that Ford Motor Company owes in taxes next year:

= Tax rate * Pre-tax income

= 35% * $80 million

= $28 million

So, the amount that Ford Motor Company owes in taxes next year without the launch of the new SUV is $28 million

1. A location’s risks can make a difference in premium costs. Think about two houses, one built on a mesa (a high desert plateau) in Arizona and the other built on the Louisiana coast (below sea level). Which location is more likely to experience flooding? Which house would have lower premiums for flood insurance?

Answers

Answer:

House with lower premiums for flood insurance -- house built on Mesa in Arizona.

Location more likely to experience flooding --- Louisiana coast which is below sea level.

Explanation:

Insurances provides a protection in exchange for a amount of fee known as a premium. An insurance is a policy or an agreement where the person availing the policy gets a financial protection against the calamities or losses that occurs to the person as promised by the other party. But for that the person needs to a pay a fee called as the premium to the other party.

In the context, the house which is built on the mesa, which is a high desert plateau in Arizona is less prone to floods. Since the location of the house is in a high altitude place, it is less likely to experience floods as compared to the other place in Louisiana coast which is below sea level and is more likely to experience flooding because of its location near the coast and elevation.

Therefore, the house located in Arizona will have to pay lower premiums for flood as there will be less likely to occur flood in the region of the high elevation of the place.

And since house built on Louisiana coast is below sea level, it will more likely to experience floods.

A 10-year, 10.00%, $5,000 bond that pays dividends quarterly can be purchased for $4,610.
This means that $4,610 is spent on the bond now. Every quarter, $125.00 is provided to the purchaser as the dividend. After 10 years, $5,000 is given to the purchaser.
If the bond is purchased and pays as scheduled, which of the following ranges of effective rate of return will the purchaser receive?
a. 11.00% - 12.00%
b. 10.00% - 10.50%
c. 12.01% - 14.01%
d. 10.50% - 10.75%

Answers

Answer: a. 11.00% - 12.00%

Explanation:

We can find the rate using Excel.

Payments are quarterly so we need to adjust the variables to quarterly figures:

Period = 10 years * 4 = 40 quarters

Present value = $4,610 (should be a negative number)

Future value = $5,000 at maturity

The effective rate will be 2.9% as shown in the attachment.

This is a quarterly figure so convert it to annual:

= 2.9 * 4

= 11.6%

It is between 11% and 12%

Suppose that in your first year of college you spend $31,300.00 more than you eam. In your second year, your expenses increase a bit, leading you to spend $31.900.00 more than you earn.

S

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Based on the information provided in the question, the deficit in the 3rd year of college will be: = $32,150

The total debt that one owes in the 3rf year will then be the addition of the debts from the 1st to the 3rd year and this will be:

= $31,300 + $31,900 + $32,150

= $63,232

Answer:

1. $32,150

2. $95,350

Explanation:

The deficit in the third year is given in the introduction: $32,150

The deficit measures how expenditures in a given year match up with earnings, whereas the debt is the total accumulation of deficits.

The debt after your third year is the sum of the deficits from your first three years: $31,300 + $31,900 + $32,150 = $95,350

Answers

Answer:

the breakeven quantity at current price is 500 units

Explanation:

The computation of the  breakeven quantity at current price is shown below:

Breakeven point = Fixed cost ÷ (Price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= $100,000 ÷ ($600 - $400)

 = 500 units

Hence, the breakeven quantity at current price is 500 units

Santos Unlimited (SU) was originally unlevered with 4200 shares outstanding. However, after a major financial restructure, SU now has $37000 of debt, with an annual interest expense of 8 percent. The restructuring has reduced the number of shares to 3800. A group of shareholders of SU are not convinced that this move towards adopting financial leverage is a good idea. Their main argument is that there is now some range of EBIT, however low, that will make the shareholders worse off than before.

Required:
Help understand the situation better by computing the level of earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) that would make shareholders indifferent between being unlevered (i.e. not having any debt) and levered (i.e. having debt). Assume a 34 percent corporate tax rate.

Answers

Answer:

                            Unlevered             Levered

EAT       EBIT * (1-t)         EBIT - Interest - Tax

No. of shares         4,200                   3,800

Payoff per share holder = EAT / Number of shares. At Indifference point, per share payoff should be equal in both cases

EBIT * 0.66 / 4,200 = (EBIT - (37,000*8%) * 0.66) / 3,800

0.66*EBIT / 4,200 = [0.66*EBIT - 2,960*0.66] / 3,800

3,800 * 0.66EBIT = 4,200*[0.66EBIT - 1,954]

2,508 EBIT = 2,772 EBIT - 8,206,800

2,772 EBIT - 2,508 EBIT = 8,206,800

264 EBIT = 8,206,800

EBIT = 8,206,800/264

EBIT = 31086.36363636364

EBIT = $31,086.36

A business owner decides to give all her employees a living wage and benefits, including any new employees.

Which social responsibility stance did the business owner demonstrate?

Answers

Answer:

Proactive stance.

Explanation:

In Business management, social responsibility can be defined as an organization's obligation to act in a manner that benefits and adds significant value to the society and the people, usually as it conducts its business operations.

Hence, in addition to making profits and maximizing shareholders, organizations are required to lessen negative environmental impact or degradation and provide social amenities such as pipe-borne water, electricity, roads etc. It is also referred to as corporate social responsibility (CSR).

In this scenario, a business owner gave all her employees a living wage and benefits, which is also applicable to any new employees. Thus, the social responsibility stance which the business owner demonstrate is proactive stance.

A proactive stance can be defined as voluntary business practices adopted by an organization or business firm beyond the standard regulatory practice, so as to actively enhance and facilitate growth and development in a society.

Analyzing and Distributing Cash Dividends to Preferred and Common Stocks Potter Company has outstanding 16,000 shares of $60 par value, 5% preferred stock and 60,000 shares of $5 par value common stock. During its first three years in business, it declared and paid no cash dividends in the first year, $260,000 in the second year, and $48,000 in the third year. a. If the preferred stock is cumulative, determine the total amount of cash dividends paid to each class of stock in each of the three years.

Answers

Answer:

Year 1

Preferred Stock Dividend = $ 0

Common Stock Dividend = $0

Year 2

Preferred Stock Dividend =  $96,000

Common Stock Dividend  = $164,000

Year 3

Preferred Stock Dividend = $48,000

Common Stock Dividend = $0

Explanation:

Preferred Stock has preference when it comes to payments of dividends. The remainder of the dividends will then be paid to Common Stock Holders after distributions have been made to Preference Stock Holders.

Then, If preferred stock is cumulative, this means all outstanding preferred stock dividends not paid are not waived, but are paid up in the year that the cash for dividend is available.

Preferred stock dividend is fixed calculated as :

Preferred Stock Dividend = 16,000 share x $60 x 5% = $48,000

thus

Cash dividends paid to each class of stock in each of the three years will be determined as :

Year 1

Preferred Stock Dividend = $ 0 , but $48,000 carried over to next year.

Common Stock Dividend = $0

Year 2

Preferred Stock Dividend = $48,000 (current year) + $48,000 (previous year) = $96,000

Common Stock Dividend = $260,000 - $96,000 = $164,000

Year 3

Preferred Stock Dividend = $48,000

Common Stock Dividend = $0

why do conduction band electrons posses very high energy's.h​

Answers

Just because of band gap. The forbidden energy gap keeps the conduction band at high energy by an amount to equal to band gap energy from the valence band edge. If you compare energies of electrons present in conduction band and valence band, they significantly differ by an amount equal to band gap energy. The low energy electron presents in a valence band requires an energy equal to band gap energy to excite to conduction band. Consequently, the electrons present in conduction band possess high energy compared to electrons present in valence band. At absolute zero K, the low energy states present in valence band are usually completely occupied where as the high energy states present in the conduction band are unoccupied.

Alt Corporation enters into an agreement with Yates Rentals Co. on January 1, 2021 for the purpose of leasing a machine to be used in its manufacturing operations. The following data pertain to the agreement:
(a) The term of the noncancelable lease is 3 years with no renewal option. Payments of $574,864 are due on January 1 of each year.
(b) The fair value of the machine on January 1, 2021, is $1,600,000. The machine has a remaining economic life of 10 years, with no salvage value. The machine reverts to the lessor upon the termination of the lease.
(c) Alt depreciates all machinery it owns on a straight-line basis.
(d) Alt’s incremental borrowing rate is 10% per year. Alt does not have knowledge of the 8% implicit rate used by Yates.
(e) Immediately after signing the lease, Yates finds out that Alt Corp. is the defendant in a suit which is sufficiently material to make collectibility of future lease payments doubtful. If Alt accounts for the lease as an operating lease, what expenses will be recorded as a consequence of the lease during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021?
a. Amortization Expense
b. Lease Expense
c. Interest Expense
d. Amortization Expense and Interest Expense

Answers

D because I searched it up and it got that

If Alt accounts for the lease as an operating lease, these are the Amortization Expense and Interest Expense that will be recorded as a consequence of the lease during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Hence, Option D is correct.

What is the meaning of the term “Expense”?

An expense is something that requires paying cash, or fortune in general, to another person or organization in exchange for a good, service, or other kind of cost. Rent is an expense for a tenant. Tuition is an expense for both parents and students.

An expense is a cost a firm faces while carrying out its operations. Payroll costs, maintenance costs, rent costs, and depreciation are all expenses. Profits are calculated by deducting expenses from revenue.

These expenses will be incurred as a result of the lease throughout the fiscal year that ends on December 31, 2021, if Alt treats the lease as an operational lease.

Therefore, Option D is correct.

Overhead currently is applied to the products on the basis of direct labor hours. Data concerning the current period's operations appear below:
Product C Product D
Estimated volume 3,800 units 3,000 units
Direct labor hours per unit 1.20 hours 0.80 hour
Direct materials cost per unit $11.60 $23.70
Direct labor cost per unit $10.80 $7.20
Requried:
a-1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate under the current method.
a-2. Determine the unit product cost of each product for the current year.
b. The company is considering using an activity-based costing system to compute unit product costs for external financial reports instead of its traditional system based on direct labor-hours. The activity-based costing system would use three activity cost pools. Data relating to these activities for the current period are given below:
Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Costs Expected Activity
Product C Product D Total
Machine setups $12,890 180 190 370
Purchase orders 77,340 960 1,300 2,260
General factory 94,680 7,885 5,025 12,910
Total $184,910
Determine the unit product cost of each product for the current period using the activity-based costing approach.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

a)

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 177,910 / (1.2*3,800 + 0.8*3,000)

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $25.56 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead to each Product line:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Product C= 25.56*4,560= $116,553.6

Product D= 25.56*2,400= $61,344

Unitary overhead Product C= 116,553.6/3,800= $30.67

Unitary overhead Product D= 61,344/3,000= $20.45

Finally, the unitary cost per product:

Product C= 30.67 + 11.6 + 10.8= $53.07

Product D= 20.45 + 23.7 + 7.2= $51.35

b)

First, we need to calculate the activities rates:

Machine setups= 12,890/370= $34.84

Purchase orders= 77,340/2,260= $34.22

General factory= 94,680/12,910= $7.33

Now, we allocate costs to each product:

Product C:

Machine setups= 34.84*180= 6,271.2

Purchase orders= 34.22*960= 32,851.2

General factory= 7.33*7,885= 57,797.05

Total= $96,919.45

Product D:

Machine setups= 34.84*190= 6,619.6

Purchase orders= 34.22*1,300= 44,486

General factory= 7.33*5,025= 36,833.25

Total= $87.938.85

Finally, the unitary overhead and unitary total cost:

Product C:

Unitary overhead= 96,919.45/3,800= $25.51

Unitary product cost= 25.51 + 11.6 + 10.8= $47.91

Product D:

Unitary overhead= 87,938.85/3,000= $29.31

Product D= 29.31 + 23.7 + 7.2= $60.21

Many companies secure financing from various sources with various payback periods. Not all funding sources are the same, and in fact, some can come with a pretty high cost to the firm. These costs could include high interest rates, long payback periods, and increased ownership in the firm which could result in lost control.

Analyze the funding options listed, and determine if the option is usually a short-term or long-term strategy.

Andrew and Brianna are married and live in Texas, a community-property state. For their birthdays this year Andrew gave cash gifts of $20,900 to each of his two daughters, and Brianna gave $35,200 to her niece. What is the amount of Andrew's taxable gifts

Answers

Answer: $2,600

Explanation:

Because Andrew is married, the gift tax on him is split in half between him and his wife. This means that to each of his daughters, the gift tax will be on:

= 20,900 / 2

= $10,450

This amount is less than the gift exclusion limit of $15,000 so Andrew will not be charged taxes on the gifts to his daughters.

On the gift to Brianna's niece, Andrew's gift tax will be based on:

= 35,200 / 2

= $17,600

This is above the gift exclusion limit of $15,000 by:

= 17,600 - 15,000

= $2,600

The above would therefore be Andrew's taxable gift amount.

Assume that, on January 1, 2021, Matsui Co. paid $2,958,000 for its investment in 87,000 shares of Yankee Inc. Further, assume that Yankee has 290,000 total shares of stock issued. The book value and fair value of Yankee's identifiable net assets were both $580,000 at January 1, 2021. The following information pertains to Yankee during 2021:

Net income $290,000
Dividends declared and paid $87,000
Market price of common stock on 12/31/2021 $36 /share

Required:
What amount would Matsui report in its year-end 2021 balance sheet for its investment in Yankee?

Answers

Answer: $3,018,900

Explanation:

Amount to report is:

= Cost of investment + Share of Net income - Share of dividends

Share of Net income

= Percentage ownership * Net income

= 87,000 shares / 290,000 * 290,000

= $87,000

Share of Dividends

= 87,000 / 290,000 * 87,000

= $26,100

Amount to report:

= 2,958,000 + 87,000 - 26,100

= $3,018,900
