Answer:
1. c) not always beneficial ..... ATC increase faster
2. c) MC > ATC ; 3. c) All except AFC increase
Explanation:
1. In short run, when more & more variable factors are employed on a fixed factor - Total cost first increase at decreasing rate, then at increasing rate. So, Average Total cost first decreases, & then increases (keeps on increasing faster with increase in production).
2. Marginal Cost, Average Total Cost relationship - MC > ATC, AC rises. MC < ATC, ATC falls & MC = ATC, ATC is minimum. So, ATC is increasing when MC is higher than ATC
3. Due to Law of Diminishing Productivity (as explained in 1), higher production implies rise in all costs - TVC, AVC, MC, ATC. But Average Fixed Cost = Total Fixed Cost (constant) / Output (increasing) falls.
Sugar Cane Company processes sugar beets into three products. During September, the joint costs of processing were $150,000. Production and sales value information for the month were as follows: Product Units Produced Sales Value at Splitoff Point Separable costs Sugar 6,000 $40,000 $12,000 Sugar Syrup 4,000 35,000 32,000 Fructose Syrup 2,000 25,000 16,000 Required: Determine the amount of joint cost allocated to each product if the sales value at splitoff method is used.
Answer:
The description as per the given question is described below.
Explanation:
The given value is:
Joint costs of processing,
= $150,000
According to the question,
The ratio of sale value will be:
= [tex]40,000:35,000:25,000[/tex]
= [tex]8:7:5[/tex]
On adding we get,
= [tex]8+7+5[/tex]
= [tex]20[/tex]
hence,
The amount of joint cost allocated to each product will be:
Sugar,
= [tex]150000\times \frac{8}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]60,000[/tex] ($)
Sugar syrup,
= [tex]150000\times \frac{7}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]52,500[/tex] ($)
Fructose syrup,
= [tex]150000\times \frac{5}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]37,500[/tex] ($)
The joint cost of sugar, sugar syrup, and fructose syrup is $60,000, $52,500, and $37,500 respectively.
What is the sales value at the split-off method?The process where joint costs are assigned to joint products based on the sales value of the products at the split-off point.
Given:
Joint costs of processing=$150,000
Product Units Sales ValueSplitoff Point Separablecosts
1. Sugar $6,000 $40,000 $12,000
2. Sugar Syrup $4,000 $35,000 $32,000
3. Fructose Syrup $2,000 $25,000 $16,000
The ratio of sale value=
=40,000 : 35,000 : 25,000
= 8 : 7 : 5
On adding we get,
= 8+7+5
= 20
The amount of joint cost allocated to each product on basis of the Sales Value of Split-off Point will be:
1. Sugar= 1,50,000 X 8/20
=$60,000
2. Sugar syrup,= 1,50,000 X 7/20
=$52,500
3. Fructose syrup= 1,50,000 X 5/20
=$37,500
Therefore, the joint cost for each product on sales value at a split-off method for sugar, sugar syrup, and fructose syrup is $60,000,$52,500, and - respectively.

Hazel Company allocates overhead based on direct labor hours. It allocates overhead costs of $16,200 to two different jobs as follows:
Job 1: (12 hours) = $8,100; Job 2: (12 hours) = $8,100
The production process for Job 2 was then automated. Now Job 2 requires only 3 hours of direct labor but 5 hours of mechanical processing. As a result, total overhead increases to $21,000. Select the incorrect statement from the following.
A. While the actual processing of Job 1 was not affected by automation, it received an increase of $9,900 in its overhead allocation.
B. The use of machine hours as the allocation base would significantly improve the overhead cost allocations.
C. The increased overhead costs associated with automation should be allocated to both jobs.
D. Automation and the costing system used by the company cause the cost of Job 1 to be significantly overstated.
Answer:
Hazel Company
The incorrect statement is:
A. While the actual processing of Job 1 was not affected by automation, it received an increase of $9,900 in its overhead allocation.
Explanation:
Option A is the correct answer because Job 1's overhead cannot increase by $9,900. Therefore, this purported increase cannot be verified as correct. Most likely the overhead allocation of Job 1 will decrease since Job 2 has another basis for allocating overhead to it, which Job 1 does not incur. Overhead allocation using ABC system is more efficient than the traditional method of using a predetermined rate because overhead is now allocated based on consumption rather than using some arbitrary basis.

The net present value of the proposed investment is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.) Multiple Choice $34,000 $4,656 $3,726 $8,382
Answer: $8,382
Explanation:
First find the present value of the cash benefits which are the cost savings and the salvage value:
= (Cost savings * Present value interest factor of annuity, 5 years, 10%) + Salvage value / ( 1 + rate) ^ no of periods
= (16,000 * 3.7908) + 6,000 / ( 1 + 10%)⁵
= $64,378
Net Present value = Present value of benefits - Cost of investment
= 64,378 - 56,000
= $8,378
= $8,382 from options. Difference due to rounding errors.
Helen has a meeting with a venture capitalist for a Series A round at a $10 million valuation. She has proprietary patents for the latest advancements in facial recognition, a team of five Stanford grads, and seed money from Andreessen Horowitz and Union Square Ventures. She has two enterprise customers. The VC has her interest piqued but declines to invest at this stage. Why? Group of answer choices Helen needs to further build out her team Helen should be raising a Series B, not A Helen needs better venture capitalists funding her project Helen needs more customers
Answer: Helen needs more customers
Explanation:
Even though the VC has her interest piqued but declines to invest at this stage, the reason is because of the fact that she has two enterprise customers.
The venture capitalist will not invest when there isn't enough customers as the VC may think that it's not worth investing in and doesn't want to make a loss. Therefore, Helen needs more customers.
The economy has grown by 4% annually over the past 30 years. During the same period, human capital has grown 1% per year and physical capital has grown 5% per year. Each 1% increase in physical capital per worker is estimated to increase labor productivity by 0.4%. Assuming a Cobb-Douglas production function, how much has annual total factor productivity growth contributed to national output growth (expressed as a percentage of national output growth)
Answer:
53.3 %
Explanation:
Given that
Each 1% increase in physical capital per worker = 0.4% increase in labor productivity
quantity of physical capital grows by 5% per year
labor force grows by 1% per year
therefore the physical capital per labor grows by ; 5% - 1% = 4%
Annual Total factor of productivity = 0.4% * 4% = 1.6%
since output grows by 4% and labor force grows by 1% average labor productivity will grow by ; 3%
Hence annual total factor productivity growth expresses as a percentage of national output growth
= 1.6 / 3 = 53.3%
Here is a linear demand function: Q = 10 -0.5P. Find its price function by inverting the demand function. Then find its total revenue function by multiplying through by Q. The linear demand function Q = 400 -250P inverts into the price function P = 1.6 -0.004Q. Multiplying this by Q gives its total revenue function TR = 1.6Q -0.004. Evaluate the following expression.
Y = 5(2X + 3)2 -2X2
Answer:
[tex]P = 20 - 2Q[/tex]
Explanation:
[tex]Q = 10 - 0.5P[/tex]
Price function can be estimated by inverting the demand function.
[tex]Q = 10 - 0.5P \\\\0.5P = 10 - Q\\P = 10/0.5 - Q/0.5 \\P = 20 - 2Q[/tex]
This is the price function.
Total revenue function can be estimated using the given formula,
[tex]TR = P*Q \\ = (20 - 2Q) Q \\ = 20Q - 2Q^2[/tex]
The linear demand function is given by,
[tex]Q = 400 - 250P \\[/tex]
Price function is given by,
[tex]P = 1.6 - 0.004Q \\[/tex]
Total revenue function is thus given by,
[tex]TR = P*Q \\ = 1.6Q - 0.004Q^2[/tex]
[tex]Y = 5(2X+3)^2 - 2X^2 \\Y = 5(4X^2 + 9 + 12X) - 2X^2\\Y = 20X^2 + 45 + 60X - 2X^2\\Y = 18X^2 + 45 + 60X \\[/tex]
The derivative of Y with respect to x is,
[tex]dY/dX = 36X + 60\\[/tex]
Equating this equal to 0 we get,
[tex]36X + 60 = 0 \\36X = -60 \\X = -10/6 \\\\X= -1.66[/tex]

An increase in supply: (2)
(a) Indicates that more is supplied at higher prices.
(b) Indicates that more is supplied at lower prices.
(c) Indicates that more is supplied at all prices.
(d) The demand curve will become more inelastic.
Answer:
A). Indicates that more is supplied at higher prices.
Explanation:
As per the law of supply, an increase in supply would signify that 'the firms are willing to sell more goods at a higher price' because they can make more profit now as compared to the supply at a lower price. The supply and price of a normal good have a positive association and therefore, an increase in price stimulates the supply as well. However, there are certain other factors responsible for the increase in supply like a fall in costs of production, an increase in the number of producers in the market, etc yet among the given options, the first one asserts a true claim. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
Carolyn Bates is a junior in college studying economics. She has created a new software application that applies the four principles of economic decision making to any potential decision that a user faces.

After reading the paragraph below, answer the question that follows. Americans spend up to $100 billion annually for bottled water (41 billion gallons). The only beverages with higher sales are carbonated soft drinks. Recent news stories have highlighted the fact that most bottled water comes from municipal water supplies (the same source as your tap water), although it may undergo an extra purification step called reverse osmosis. Imagine two tanks that are separated by a membrane that's permeable to water, but not to the dissolved minerals present in the water. Tank A contains tap water and tank B contains the purified water. Under normal conditions, the purified water would cross the membrane to dilute the more concentrated tap water solution. In the reverse osmosis process, pressure is applied to the tap water tank to force the water molecules across the membrane into the pure water tank. If you shut off the system and pressure was no longer applied to tank A, you would expect

Eagle Company used the following data to evaluate its current operating system. - sells items for $24 each - used a budgeted selling price of $24 per unit. Actual Budgeted Units sold 177,000 units 184,000 units Variable costs $1,090,000 $1,290,000 Fixed costs $804,000 $780,000 What is the static-budget variance of operating income
Answer:
$100,000 unfavorable
Explanation:
Given the above information,
Sales = Selling price per unit × unit sold
Actual sales = $24 × 177,000 units = $4,248,000
Budgeted sales = $24 × 184,000 units = $4,416,000
Operating income = Actual sales - Variable income - Fixed income
Actual operating income = $4,248,000 - $1,090,000 - $804,000 = $2,354,000
Budgeted operating income = $4,416,000 - $1,290,000 - $780,000 = $2,364,000
Therefore,
Static budget variance of operating income = Actual operating income - Budgeted operating income
= $2,354,000 - $2,364,000
= $100,000 unfavorable
Limitations of GDP Although GDP is a reasonably good measure of a nation's output, it does not necessarily include all transactions and production for that nation. Which of the following scenarios are either not accounted for or measured inaccurately by either the income or the expenditure methods of calculating GDP for the United States?
a. The costs Of air and water pollution
b. The quality of goods available to
c. Expenditures on federal highways
d. The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the isn't reported to the government.
Answer:
a
b
d
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports – imports
When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.
Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:
1. services not rendered to oneself
2. Activities not reported to the government
3. illegal activities
4. sale or purchase of used products
5. sale or purchase of intermediate products
Expenditure on the highways would be recorded as part of government expenditure

Catano Corporation pays for 40% of its raw materials purchases in the month of purchase and 60% in the following month. If the budgeted cost of raw materials purchases in July is $256,550 and in August is $278,050, then in August the total budgeted cash disbursements for raw materials purchases is closest to:
Answer:
Total cash disbursement= $271,150
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct material purchase:
July= $256,550
August= $278,050
Catano Corporation pays for 40% of its raw materials purchases in the month of purchase and 60% in the following month.
To calculate the cash disbursements for August, we need to use the following structure:
Cash disbursement August:
Purchase in cash from August= 278,050*0.4= 111,220
Purchase in account from July= 256,550*0.6= 159,930
Total cash disbursement= $271,150
Step 1:
Enter the following entries for the month of August. A. Purchased raw materials on account: $3,100. B. Selling and Administrative expenses incurred and paid: $1,200. C. Used direct materials: $3,900. D. Used indirect materials: $300. E. Manufacturing wages incurred totaled $4,000, of which 90% was direct labor and 10% was indirect labor. F. Incurred other actual factory overhead on account: $1,300. G. Factory Overhead was allocated to Work in Process Inventory at a predetermined overhead allocation rate of 60% of Direct Labor costs incurred during August. H. The cost of product completed: $10,000. I. Sales on account: $17,500. The cost of the units sold was $9,500.
Step 2:
Adjust for over or underallocated overhead.
Once you have entered the journal entries in Step 1 above, prepare and enter the necessary adjusting entry to correct for the overallocated or underallocated Factory Overhead. This entry should be dated "August 31, 2017." For the "Description," enter "Journal Entry J."

Credit : Inventory $9,500
Step 2
Date : August 31, 2017
Description : Journal Entry J
Debit : Overheads $160
Credit : Cost of Sales $160
Explanation:
For step 1
If expenses are incurred, Debit the expense and credit Cash if cash was paid or Credit Accounts Payable if there was no immediate cash payment.
Ensure all manufacturing costs incurred are accumulated in the appropriate Work in Process Account.
Remember to record the corresponding cost of sales journal following the sale of completed units.
For step 2
If Actual overheads > Applied overheads, we have overheads under-applied,
and if Applied overheads > Actual overheads, we have over-applied overheads
Hence determine amounts of Actual and Applied overheads first :
Actual overheads calculation :
Indirect materials $300
Indirect labor $400
Other overheads $1,300
Total $2,000
Applied overheads :
Applied overheads = $2,160
therefore,
Over-applied overheads = $2,160 - $2,000 = $160
The cost of sales is reduced by the amount of over-applied overheads
The Neal Company wants to estimate next year's return on equity (ROE) under different financial leverage ratios. Neal's total capital is $20 million, it currently uses only common equity, it has no future plans to use preferred stock in its capital structure, and its federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%. The CFO has estimated next year's EBIT for three possible states of the world: $5.5 million with a 0.2 probability, $2.6 million with a 0.5 probability, and $600,000 with a 0.3 probability.
Required:
Calculate Neal's expected ROE, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation.
Answer:
Neal's expected ROE = 4.62%
Neal's standard deviation = 2.46%
Neal's coefficient of variation = 0.53
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculations of Neal's Expected ROE and Deviation.
From the attached excel, we can have:
Neal's expected ROE = Total expected ROE = 0.0462, or 4.62%
Neal's standard deviation = (Total Deviation)^0.5 = 0.00060736^0.5 = 0.0246, or 2.46%
Neal's coefficient of variation = Neal's standard deviation / Neal's expected ROE = 2.46% / 4.62% = 0.53

Exercise 9-11 Working Backwards from Labor Variances [LO9-5] The auto repair shop of Quality Motor Company uses standards to control the labor time and labor cost in the shop. The standard labor cost for a motor tune-up is given below: Standard Hours Standard Rate Standard Cost Motor tune-up 2.50 $34.00 $85.00 The record showing the time spent in the shop last week on motor tune-ups has been misplaced. However, the shop supervisor recalls that 54 tune-ups were completed during the week, and the controller recalls the following variance data relating to tune-ups: Labor rate variance $ 350 F Labor spending variance $ 500 U Required: 1. Determine the number of actual labor-hours spent on tune-ups during the week. 2. Determine the actual hourly rate of pay for tune-ups last week. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
a. The number of actual hours spent on tune-ups is
as we know that
Total Labor Variance = Labor Rate Variance + Labor Efficiency Variance
$500U = $350F + Labor Efficiency Variance
$500 = -$350 + Labor Efficiency Variance
Labor Efficiency Variance = $850
Now
Efficiency Variance = Standard Rate × (Actual Hours - Standard Hours )
$850 = 34 × (Actual hours - 2.5 × 54)
$850 = 34Actual Hours - $4,590
$5,440 = 34 actual hours
Actual Hour = 160 Hours
b. The actual hourly rate is
Labor Rate Variance = Actual hours × (Actual rate - Standard rate)
-350 = 160 × (Actual rate - $34)
-350 = 169 Actual rate - $5,440
$5,090 = 169 Actual rate
Actual rate = $30.12
I Love My Chocolate Company makes dark chocolate and light chocolate. Both products require cocoa and sugar. The following planning information has been made available: Standard Amount per Case Dark Chocolate Light Chocolate Standard Price per Pound Cocoa 12 lbs. 8 lbs. $7.25 Sugar 10 lbs. 14 lbs. 1.40 Standard labor time 0.50 hr. 0.60 hr. Dark Chocolate Light Chocolate Planned production 4,700 cases 11,000 cases Standard labor rate $15.50 per hr. $15.50 per hr. I Love My Chocolate Company does not expect there to be any beginning or ending inventories of cocoa or sugar. At the end of the budget year, I Love My Chocolate Company had the following actual results: Dark Chocolate Light Chocolate Actual production (cases) 5,000 10,000 Actual Price per Pound Actual Pounds Purchased and Used Cocoa $7.33 140,300 Sugar 1.35 188,000 Actual Labor Rate Actual Labor Hours Used Dark chocolate $15.25 per hr. 2,360 Light chocolate 15.80 per hr. 6,120
Required:
1. Prepare the following variance analyses for both chocolates and the total, based on the actual results and production levels at the end of the budget year. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
a. Direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total variance.
b. Direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total variance.
2. The variance analyses should be based on the amounts at volumes. The budget must flex with the volume changes. If the volume is different from the planned volume, as it was in this case, then the budget used for performance evaluation should reflect the change in direct materials and direct labor that will be required for the production. In this way, spending from volume changes can be separated from efficiency and price variances.
Explanation:
For DARK CHOCOLATE A. DIRECT LABOR RATE VARIANCE.= (Stadard Rate- Actual Rate) * Actual Hour DIRECT LABOR RATE VARIANCE.= (15.50-15.25) * 2360 DIRECT LABOR RATE VARIANCE.= $ 590 Favorable A. DIRECT LABOR TIME VARIANCE = ( Standard Hour - Actual Hour) * Standard Rate DIRECT LABOR TIME VARIANCE = (5000*0.50 - 2360) * 15.50 DIRECT LABOR TIME VARIANCE = ( 2500 - 2360) * 15.50 DIRECT LABOR TIME VARIANCE = $ 2170 Favorable A. DIRECT LABOR TOTAL VARIANCE= ( Standard Hour * Standard Rate - Actual Hour* Actual Rate) DIRECT LABOR TOTAL VARIANCE= ( 2500*15.50 - 2360*15.25) DIRECT LABOR TOTAL VARIANCE= $ 2760 Favorable For LIGHT CHOCOLATE A. DIRECT LABOR RATE VARIANCE.= (Stadard Rate- Actual Rate) * Actual Hour DIRECT LABOR RATE VARIANCE.= (15.50-15.80) * 6120 DIRECT LABOR RATE VARIANCE.= $ 1836 Unfavorable A. DIRECT LABOR TIME VARIANCE = ( Standard Hour - Actual Hour) * Standard Rate DIRECT LABOR TIME VARIANCE = (10000*0.60 - 6120) * 15.50 DIRECT LABOR TIME VARIANCE = ( 6000 - 6120) * 15.50 DIRECT LABOR.

"Ayres Services acquired an asset for $80 million in 2021. The asset is depreciated for financial reporting purposes over four years on a straight-line basis (no residual value). For tax purposes the asset’s cost is depreciated by MACRS. The enacted tax rate is 25%. Amounts for pretax accounting income, depreciation, and taxable income in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 are as follows: ($ in millions) 2021 2022 2023 2024 Pretax accounting income $ 330 $ 350 $ 365 $ 400 Depreciation on the income statement 20 20 20 20 Depreciation on the tax return (25 ) (33 ) (15 ) (7 ) Taxable income $ 325 $ 337 $ 370 $ 413 Required: For December 31 of each year, determine (a) the cumulative temporary book-tax difference for the depreciable asset and (b) the balance to be reported in the deferred tax liability account. (Leave no cell blank, enter "0" wherever applicable. Enter your answers in millions rounded to 2 decimal places (i.e., 5,500,000 should be entered as 5.50).)"
a. The cumulative temporary book-tax difference for the depreciable asset are as follows:
December 31, 2021 = $60 million
December 31, 2022 = $40 million
December 31, 2023 = $20 million
December 31, 2024 = $0
b. The balance to be reported in the deferred tax liability account are as follows.
December 31, 2021 = $15 million
December 31, 2022 = $10 million
December 31, 2023 = $5 million
December 31, 2024 = $0
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of cumulative temporary book-tax difference for the depreciable asset and the balance to be reported in the deferred tax liability account for December 31 of years 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 in bold red color.
In the attached excel file, the following formula are used:
Cumulative Temporary differences at December 31 of the current year = Cumulative Temporary differences at December 31 of the previous year + (Depreciation on the tax return at December 31 of the current year - Depreciation on the income statement at December 31 of the current year)
Balance to be reported in deferred tax liability account at December 31 of the current year = Cumulative Temporary differences at December 31 of the current year * Tax rate
Management is considering a bonus system to increase production. One suggestion is to pay a bonus on the highest 5% of production based on past experience. Past records indicate that an average of 4,000 units of a small assembly is produced during a week. The distribution of the weekly production is approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 60 units. If the bonus is paid on the upper 5% of production, the bonus will be paid on how many units or more
Answer:
4099
Explanation:
we have mean = 4000
σ = 60 units
lets make X = weekly production
z = X-μ/σ
z = X-4000/60
At 0.05 level of signficance, z critical value = 1.645
we put this value into the equation
[tex]z = \frac{x-4000}{60} \\1.645 = \frac{x-4000}{60}[/tex]
we cross multiply from here
60 * 1.645 = x - 4000
98.7 = x-4000
x = 4000 + 98.7
x = 4098.7
≈ 4099
the bonus would be paid on 4099 units

Sunland Company issues $5,000,000, 10-year, 10% bonds at 96, with interest payable annually on January 1. The straight-line method is used to amortize bond discount. Prepare the journal entry to record the sale of these bonds on January 1, 2020. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually.)
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry to record the sale of the bond as on Jan 1, 2020 is given below:
Cash $4,800,000 ($5,000,000 × 0.96)
Discount on Bonds payable $200,000
To Bonds payable $5,000,000
(Being the sale of the bond is recorded)
Here the cash and discount on bond payable is debited as it increased the assets and decreased the liability and the bond payable is credited as it increase the liability
