Wolverine Company financial statements included the effects of these errors: Reported Net Income for Year 1 was $20,000. Reported Net Income for Year 2 was $18,000. Indicate the error in 12/31/2 Retained Earnings:
Answer:
Net income year 2 = $21,300
Explanation:
I looked for the missing information and found this:
Year Depreciation overstated Prepaid expense omitted
1 $2,500 $2,000
2 $4,000 $2,700
If your question doesn't include the same values, just adjust the answer.
Year 2's net income = net income (year 2) + overstated depreciation (year 2) + omitted prepaid expenses (year 1) - omitted prepaid expenses (year 2) = $18,000 + $4,000 + $2,000 - $2,700 = $21,300

Consider a service company that provides carpet cleaning and uses straight-line depreciation. Classify the cost of the depreciation on the carpet cleaning machines.
a. Fixed
b. Indirect
Answer:
Both :
a. Fixed and,
b. Indirect
Explanation:
The depreciation expense on production machinery form part of the product or service cost.
The cost however, can not be traced to the product or service that is why it is an Indirect cost as opposed to the direct costs which can be traced directly on the product or service.
Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation thus the depreciation is a fixed charge.
The rate of return on the common stock of Lancaster Woolens is expected to be 18 percent in a boom economy, 8 percent in a normal economy, and only 2 percent in a recessionary economy. The probabilities of these economic states are 12 percent for a boom and 10 percent for a recession. What is the variance of the returns on this common stock
Answer:
Variance of the return on this common stock is 0.15%
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the variance of the returns on this common stock.
Note that the probability of a normal economy can be obtained as follows:
Probability of normal economy = 100% - Probability of a boom - Probability of a recession = 100% - 12% - 10% = 78%
These probabilities are used in the attached excel file.
. Identify each of the following as (i) part of an expansionary fiscal policy, (ii) part of a contractionary fiscal policy, or (iii) not part of fiscal policy. a. The personal income tax rate is lowered. b. Congress cuts spending on defense. c. College students are allowed to deduct tuition costs from their federal income taxes. d. The corporate income tax rate is lowered. e. The state of Nevada builds a new tollway in an attempt to expand employment and ease traffic in Las Vegas.
Answer:
Option, A , D, E = expansionary fiscal policy.
Option B = Contractionary fiscal policy
Option C = not a part of fiscal policy
Explanation:
The expansionary fiscal policy occurred when there is a decrease in taxes and an increase in government expenditure (spendings). While contractionary fiscal policy occurs when taxes are increased by the government and there is a fall or decrease in government spendings. Therefore, Option A, Option D, and Option E are part of the expansionary fiscal policy.
Option B is a contractionary fiscal policy. While option C is not a part of fiscal policy
At the beginning of year 1, Looby Corp. purchases equipment for $100,000. The equipment has a residual value of $20,000 and an expected useful life of 10 years. What is accumulated depreciation at the end of year 2 using straight-line depreciation
Answer:
Accumulated Depreciation at the end of year = $16,000
Explanation:
Under the straight line method of depreciation, the cost of an asset less the salvage value is spread equally over the expected useful life.
An equal amount is charged as annual depreciation over the life of the asset. The annual depreciation is calculated as follows:
Annual depreciation:
= (cost of assets - salvage value)/ Estimated useful life
Cost - 100,000
Residual value = 20,000
Estimated useful life = 10 years
Annual depreciation = (100,000- 20,000)/10 =8,000
Annual depreciation = 8,000
Accumulated Depreciation for 2 years = Annual depreciation× number of years
= 8,000× 2 = 16,000
Accumulated Depreciation for 2 years = $16,000
Gullett Corporation had $26,000 of raw materials on hand on November 1. During the month, the Corporation purchased an additional $75,000 of raw materials. The journal entry to record the purchase of raw materials would include a:
Answer:
debit to Raw Materials of $75,000
Explanation:
In this scenario, the journal entry to record the purchase of raw materials would include a debit to Raw Materials of $75,000. A debit is an entry recording a sum owed, listed on the left-hand side or column of an account. Therefore in accounting, since Gullet Corporation's purchase was for an "additional" $75,000 worth of raw material, they owe that money to the company and must make it up through sales that those materials should generate in the future. That is why it is recorded as a debit.
A buyer and a seller enter into a real estate sales contract. Under the contract's terms, the buyer will pay the seller $500 a month for 10 years. The seller will continue to hold legal title, while the buyer will live in the home and pay all real estate taxes, insurance premiums, and regular upkeep costs. What kind of contract do the buyer and seller have
Answer: Land Sales Contract
Explanation:
Land Sales contract are a way to buy a property for people who would otherwise be unable to buy one because they were unable to get a mortgage or are running low in funds.
It works by the buyer paying the seller a certain amount of money for a period of time according to an agreement. During this period of payment, the seller continues to hold the legal rights to the property and then passes it to the buyer when they are finished paying. In this scenario therefore, the seller effectively plays the role of a mortgage bank.
you have just deposited $11000 in to an account that promises to pay you an annual interest rate of 6.5 percent each year for the next 6 years. You will leave the money invested in the account and 10 years from today. you need to have $26300 in the account. What annual interest rate must you earn over the last 4 years to accomplish this goal
Answer:
Over the last 4 years to accomplish this goal the annual interest rate must be 13.14 %.
Explanation:
First find the Future value (FV) of $11,000 at the end of the 6th year as follows :
PV = -$11,000
r = 6.50%
p/yr = 1
n = 6
Pmt = $0
FV = ?
Using a financial calculator, the Future Value (FV) is $16,050.57
Therefore, the amount invested will amount to $16,050.57 in 6 year.
Next we then calculate the interest rate that will give us $26300 in the next four years (remainder of the 10 years)
PV = -$16,050.57
FV = $26,300
P/yr = 1
n = 4
Pmt = $0
r = ?
Using a financial calculator, the Interest rate (r) is 13.14 %
Conclusion :
Over the last 4 years to accomplish this goal the annual interest rate must be 13.14 %.
Q3) At an output level of 45,000 units, you calculate that the degree of operating leverage is 2.79. If output rises to 48,000 units, what will the percentage change in operating cash flow be
Answer: 18.6%
Explanation:
Degree of operating leverage = % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output
% change in Output
= [tex]\frac{48,000 - 45,000}{45,000}[/tex]
= 6.7%
Degree of operating leverage = % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output
2.79 = % change in Operating cash flow/ 6.7%
% change in Operating cash flow = 2.79 * 6.7%
% change in Operating cash flow = 18.6%
With an increase in product advertising of $50 million you expect to increase sales by 10,000 units. If unit grow margin is $4,800, will the additional advertising increase product contribution?
Answer:
Income will decrease by $2,000,000.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Advertising increase= $50,000,000
Units increase= 10,000 units
Unit contribution margin= $4,800
To calculate the total effect on income, we need to use the following formula:
Effect on income= total contribution margin - increase in fixed costs
Effect on income= 10,000*4,800 - 50,000,000
Effect on income= $2,000,000 decrease
Income will decrease by $2,000,000.

$
3. Show the assignment of costs to units transferred out and in process.
Units transferred out $
Units in ending work in process
Answer:
1. Compute equivalent units of production for materials and for conversion costs
Equivalent units of Materials: (Units in Beginning Work in process + Units started into production - Units in ending work in process) + Units in ending work in process
= (0 + 37,300 - 8,200) + 8,200
= 37,300
Equivalent units of conversion costs : (Units in Beginning Work in process + Units started into production - Units in ending work in process) + (Units in ending work in process * 40%)
= (0 + 37,300 - 8,200) + (8,200 * 40%)
=29,100 + 3,280
= 32,380
2. Determine the unit costs of production
Unit costs of materials = Direct materials / Equivalent units of Materials
= $78,330 / 37,300
= $2.1
Unit costs of conversion costs = (Direct labor + Overhead) / Equivalent units of conversion costs
= ($66,500 + $105,114) / 32,380
= $171,614 / 32,380
= $5.3
3. Show the assignment of costs to units transferred out and in process
Units ending work in process = Materials + Conversion costs
where, Materials = 8,200 * $2.1 = $8,202
Conversion costs = 3,281 * $5.3 = $17,389
( 8,200 * 40%)
Units ending work in process = $8,202 + $17,389
= $25,591

You are thinking of building a new machine that will save you $ 4 comma 000$4,000 in the first year. The machine will then begin to wear out so that the savings decline at a rate of 1 %1% per year forever. What is the present value of the savings if the interest rate is 9 %9% per year?
Answer:
The present value of the savings=$37,064.22
Explanation:
The present value of the savings is the amount that it worths today, this would be done in two stages;
The first stage is to determined the present of the first cash savings as follows:
PV of the first payment = 4,000 × (1.09)^(-1)=3,669.72
Second step is to determine the present value of the declining perpetuity
PV of declining perpetuity. A perpetuity is the series of cash flow occurring for the foreseeable future of years.
A- 4,000, g-negative growth rate = 1%,
interest rate = 9%
PV in year 1 = 4,000× (1-0.09)/(0.09+0.01)
= 36,400
PV in year 0 = 36,400 × (1.09)^(-1) = 33,394.49
The present value of the savings = 33,394.49 + 3,669.72= 37,064.22
The present value of the savings=$37,064.22
An investment earns 35% the first year, earns 40% the second year, and loses 37% the third year. The total compound return over the 3 years was ______. Multiple Choice 158.93% 19.07% 38.00% 6.36%
Answer:
19.07%
Explanation:
The computation of the total compound return over the 3 years is shown below:
= (1 + investment percentage earned in first year) × (1 + investment percentage earned in second year) × (1 + investment percentage loss in second year)
= (1 + 0.35) × (1 + 0.40) × (1 - 0.37)
= 1.35 × 1.40 × 0.63
= 1.1907
= 19.07%

Exercise 10-6 Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances [LO10-1, LO10-2] Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost Direct materials 7.40 pounds $ 2.60 per pound $ 19.24 Direct labor 0.45 hours $ 8.00 per hour $ 3.60 During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded: 12,100.00 pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.50 per pound. All of the material purchased was used to produce 1,500 units of Zoom. 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct material:
Standard= 7.40 pounds $ 2.60 per pound
Actual= 12,100 pounds of material were purchased for $2.50 per pound.
Direct labor:
Standard= 0.45 hours $ 8.00 per hour
Actual= 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750
Units produced= 1,500
To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (2.6 - 2.5)*12,100
Direct material price variance= $1,210 favorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
standard quantity= 1,500*7.4= 11,100
Direct material quantity variance= (11,100 - 12,100)*2.6
Direct material quantity variance= $2,600 unfavorable
To calculate the direct labor efficiency and rate variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Standard quantity= 1,500*0.45= 675
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (675 - 575)*8
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $800 favorable
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Actual rate= 5,750/575= $10
Direct labor rate variance= (8 - 10)*575
Direct labor rate variance= $1,150 unfavorable
Abburi Company's manufacturing overhead is 55% of its total conversion costs. If direct labor is $45,900 and if direct materials are $27,200, the manufacturing overhead is:
Answer:
Manufacturing Overheads = $56100
Explanation:
The conversion cost defined simply is the cost involved in turning the raw material or direct material into the finished products. Conversion cost is calculated by adding the direct labor cost and the manufacturing overhead cost.
Conversion cost = Direct labor + Manufacturing overheads
As we know that the manufacturing overhead is 55% of conversion cost, then the direct labor cost is 45% of conversion cost.
If 45% of conversion cost is $45900, then the total conversion cost will be,
Conversion cost = 45900 * 100/45 = $102000
Manufacturing Overheads = 102000 - 45900 = $56100

All of the following are assumptions facing opposing forces of reducing costs and adapting to local markets that international business people should be aware of except? Homogenous customer needs worldwide People around the world are willing to sacrifice preferences for lower prices and higher quality Economies of scale can be obtained in production and marketing through supplying worldwide Lowering international synergy and cost via the value chain matrix
Answer: Lowering international synergy and cost via the value chain matrix
Explanation:
Theodore Levitt came up with some assumptions facing opposing forces of reducing costs and adapting to local markets that international business people should be aware of which include;
On a global scale, customer needs are beginning to become homogeneous.People are willing to sacrifice their preferences for better quality products at a cheaper quality which gives Multinational Companies a chance to offer them better products than local producers due to their large sizes and Economies of scale.Having to supply the world can lead to Economies of scale in production and marketing due to the larger market.Lowering international synergy and cost via the value chain matrix is not one of the assumptions espoused by Theodore Levitt and so is the correct answer.

Kunkel Company makes two products and uses a conventional costing system in which a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate is computed based on direct labor-hours. Data for the two products for the upcoming year follow:
Mercon Wurcon
Direct materials cost per unit $ 9.00 $ 7.00
Direct labor cost per unit $15.00 $ 17.00
Direct labor-hours per unit 0.40 4.80
Number of units produced 4,000 8,000
These products are customized to some degree for specific customers.
Required:
1. The company's manufacturing overhead costs for the year are expected to be $1,600,000. Using the company's conventional costing system, compute the unit product costs for the two products.
2. Management is considering an activity-based costing system in which half of the overhead would continue to be allocated on the basis of direct labor-hours and half would be allocated on the basis of engineering design time. This time is expected to be distributed as follows during the upcoming year:
Mercon Wurcon Total
Engineering design time (in hours) 8,000 8,000 16,000
Compute the unit product costs for the two products using the proposed ABC system.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Mercon Wurcon
Direct materials cost per unit $ 9.00 $ 7.00
Direct labor cost per unit $15.00 $ 17.00
Direct labor-hours per unit 0.40 4.80
Number of units produced 4,000 8,000
A. First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Total direct labor hours= 0.4*4,000 + 4.8*8,000= 40,000
Overhead= 1,600,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,600,000/40,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $40 per direct labor hour
Now, we can determine the unitary product cost.
Mercon= 9 + 15 + 40*0.4= $37
Wurcon= 7 + 17 + 4.8*40= $216
B.
Mercon Wurcon Total
Engineering design time (in hours) 8,000 8,000 16,000
Now, we have two different allocation rates:
Direct-labor hours= 800,000/40,000= $20 per direct labor hour
Engineer desing= 800,000/16,000= $50 per engineer desing hour
Finally, we can determine the unitary product cost:
Engineer design per unit:
Mercon= 8,000/4,000= 2
Wurcon= 8,000/8,000= 1
Mercon= 9 + 15 + (20*0.4 + 50*2) = $132
Wurcon= 7 + 17 + (20*4.8 + 50*1)= $170
Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a(n):
Answer:
Reversionary interest
Explanation:
If Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a reversionary interest.
A reversionary interest can be defined as a property law (deed) which states that when a property such as a land transfer is used on a clause; “for so long as” or “on condition that."
Hence, once the interest of the benefactor comes to an end, the property reverts back to its original owner (grantor). It also gives the grantor's next of kin, successor or heir the power or right to take the property back in the future if promises are broken or the agreement comes to an end.
This ultimately implies that, if a property stated in the deed is not used or used, for certain purposes.

"An economy is based on three sectorsdashagriculture, manufacturing, and services. For each unit of output, agriculture requires inputs of 0.20 unit from agriculture, 0.40 unit from manufacturing, and 0.20 unit from services. For each unit of output, manufacturing requires inputs of 0.30 unit from agriculture, 0.20 unit from manufacturing, and 0.20 unit from services. For each unit of output, services requires 0.20 unit from agriculture, 0.30 unit from manufacturing, and 0.30 unit from services. Determine the production levels needed to satisfy a final demand of 0 units for agriculture, 40 units for manufacturing, and 0 units for services. The production level needed from the agricultural sector is 40.00 units."
Answer:
Required Production to fullfil a Demand for 40 industry units
Agriculture 54.4
Industry 83.2
Services 51.2
Explanation:
Input Agricuilture Industrial Service
Agriculture 0.2 0.3 0.2
Industrial 0.4 0.2 0.3
Service 0.2 0.2 0.3
We require X input to generate a demand of 0 agriculture 40 industry and 0 services
The previous matrix will be the input we solve for the output
Output Agricuilture Industrial Service
Agriculture 0.8 -0.7 -0.8
Industrial -0.6 0.8 -0.7
Service -0.8 -0.8 0.7
We now reverse the matrix using excel:
Output Agricuilture Industrial Service
Agriculture 2 1.36 0.96
Industrial 1 2.08 0.88
Service 1 1.28 2.08
Now we multiply this by our desired outcome of
0
40
