Lease liability 291,833.02 debit
interest expense 178,166.98 debit
loss on monetary position 23,500 debit
Cash 493,500 credit
Explanation:
We solve for the present value of the six payment of 470,000 to know the lease liability
Present Value of Annuity
[tex]C \times \displaystyle \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time}}{rate} (1+rate)= PV\\[/tex]
C 470,000
time 6
rate 0.1
[tex]470000 \times \displaystyle \frac{1-(1+0.1)^{-6}}{0.1} (1 + 0.10) = PV\\[/tex]
PV $2,251,669.7816
We subtract the first payment of 470,000
Lease liability account: 1,781,669.78
Second payment journal entry:
interest calculations:
1,781,669.78 x 0.1 = 178,166.98
principal payment:
470,000 - 178,166.98 = 291,833.02
inflation' adjustment:
470,000 x 126/120 = 493,500
The difference will be a loss on monetary position by the difference:
493,500 - 470,000 = 23,500

At the beginning of the month, the roasting department had 3,080 units in inventory, 70% complete as to materials. During the month, the roasting department started 21,600 units. At the end of the month, the roasting department had 4,800 units in ending inventory, 80% complete as to materials. Cost information for the roasting department for the month follows:
Beginning work in process inventory (direct materials) $ 4,870
Direct materials added during the month 45,900
Using the FIFO method, assign direct materials costs to the roasting department’s output—specifically, the units transferred out to the mixing department and the units that remain in process in the roasting department at month-end. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Direct material cost of units transferred out = $42,596
Cost of ending work in process inventory = $8,174
Explanation:
This can be done using the following 3 steps:
Step 1: Calculation of equivalent unit of production (EUP) of materials
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of equivalent unit of production (EUP) of materials.
From the attached excel file, we have:
Physical unit = 24,680
EUP-material = 21,564
Step 2: Calculation of cost per EUP of materials
Cost per EUP of materials = Direct materials added during the month / EUP-Materials = $49,900 / 21,564 = $2.13
Step 3: Assignment of direct materials cost to the units transferred out amd the ending WIP
Cost of materials added to complete the beginning WIP = 924 * $2.13 = $1,967
Cost of units started and transferred out = 16,800 * $2.13 = $35,760
Direct material cost of units transferred out = Direct material cost of beginning WIP + Cost of materials added to complete the beginning WIP + Cost of units started and transferred out = $4,870 + $1,967 + $35,760 = $42,596
Cost of ending work in process inventory = 3,840 * $2.13 = $8,174

The management of City Front Inc. must decide between scrapping or reworking units that do not pass inspection. The company has 11,000 defective units that cost $6.00 per unit to manufacture. The units can be sold as is for $2.50 each or they can be reworked for $3.50 each and then sold for the full price of $9.70 each. What is the incremental income from reworking and selling the units
Answer:
If the units are reworked, income will increase by $40,700.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Number of units= 11,000
Sell as-is:
Selling price= $2.5
Rework:
Selling price= $9.7
Increase in costs= $3.5
We will take into account the incremental costs, the first production costs are equal to both options.
Sell as-is:
Effect on income= 11,000*2.5= $27,500 increase
Rework:
Effect on income= 11,000*(9.7 - 3.5)
Effect on income= $68,200 increase
If the units are reworked, income will increase by $40,700.
"When auto manufacturer BMW purchased the Rollsminus Royce brand name, BMW had to hire and train a new staff of assembly workers. The new workers were paid $27 per hour, worked a total of 7,200 hours, and produced 2,100 cars. BMW budgeted for a standard labor rate of $32 per hour and 3.50 direct labor hours per car. What is the direct labor rate variance for the Rollsminus Royce division?"
Answer:
See now
Explanation:
With regards to the above, direct labor rate variance is computed as;
Direct labor rate variance
= Actual cost - Standard cost of actual hours
= [(7,200hours × $27) - (7,200 hours × $32)]
= $194,400 - $230,400
= $36,000 favorable
Therefore , direct labor rate variance i s $36,000 favorable

A. Return on equity 7.5%
B. Dividend yield 3.03%
C. Earnings per share $0.22
D. Price-earnings ratio 45
Explanation:
A. Calculation to determine the Return on equity
First step is to calculate the Average stockholders equity using this formula
Average stockholders equity = ( Beginning stockholders equity + Ending stockholders equity)/2
Let plug in the formula
Average stockholders equity= (2,240+2000)/2
Average stockholders equity= $2,120 millions
Now let calculate the Return on equity using this formula
Return on equity=Net Income / Average stockholders equity
Let plug in the formula
Return on equity=159 / 2,120
Return on equity= 7.5%
B. Calculation to determine the Dividend yield
Using this formula
Dividend yield=Dividend per share / Stock price
Let plug in the formula
Dividend yield=0.30/ 9.90
Dividend yield= 3.03%
C. Calculation to determine the Earnings per share
Using this formula
Earnings per share=Net Income / Average shares outstanding
Let plug in the formula
Earnings per share=159/ 720
Earnings per share= $0.22
D. Calculation to determine Price-earnings ratio
Using this is formula
Price-earnings ratio=Stock price / Earnings per share
Let plug in the formula
Price-earnings ratio=9.90 / 0.22
Price-earnings ratio= 45

Answer:
b. the asset must have an expected life of a normal operating cycle.
Explanation:
A current asset can be defined as all of the assets that are being owned by a company or business entity and are expected to be converted into their cash equivalent through sales or use within a period of one year of its date on the organization's balance sheet.
Hence, to be included in property, plant, and equipment, an asset must have all of the following;
I. The asset is expected or required to be held for use
II. It must be tangible in nature.
III. It is required to have an expected life of that is typically above a year.
Two hundred paper mills compete in the paper market. The total cost of production (in dollars) for each mill is given by the formula TC = 500Qmill + (Qmill)2 where Qmill indicates the mills annual production in thousands of tons. The marginal cost of production is MC = 500 + 2Qmill. The external cost of a mill’s production (in dollars) is given by the formula EC = 40Qmill + (Qmill)2 and the marginal external cost of production is MEC = 40 + 2Qmill. Finally, annual market demand (in thousands of tons) is given by the formula Qd = 150,000 – 100P where P is the price of paper per ton. Using algebra, find the competitive equilibrium price and quantity, as well as the efficient quantity. Calculate the magnitude of the deadweight loss resulting from the externality. Illustrate your solution with graphs.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The magnitude of the deadweight loss resulting from the externality is shown below:
MC = 500 + 2Q
MEC = 40 + 2Q
Therefore, the Marginal social cost (MSC) will be:
= MC + MEC
= 500 + 2Q + 40 + 2Q
= 540 + 4Q
Since Demand: Q = 150,000 - 100P, we have to get a function for P which will be:
Q = 150,000 - 100P
100P = 150,000 - Q
P = (150,000 - Q)/100
P = 1,500 - 0.01Q
Total revenue, TR = P x Q
= (1,500 - 0.01Q) × Q
= 1500Q - 0.01Q²
Marginal revenue, MR will be:
= dTR / dQ
= 1,500 - 0.02Q
It should be noted that for when there's no externality, Equilibrium, MC must be equal to MR. Therefore,
1,500 - 0.02Q = 500 + 2Q
2Q + 0.02Q = 1500 - 500
2.02Q = 1,000
Q = 1000/2.02
Q = 495
P = 1,500 - (0.01 x 495)
= 1,500 - 4.95
= 1,495.05
When there's externality, Equilibrium will be:
MR = MSC
1,500 - 0.02Q = 540 + 4Q
4.02Q = 960
Q= 960/4.02
Q = 239
Therefore, P = 1,500 - (0.01 x 239)
= 1,500 - 2.39
= 1,497.61
Then, we will calculate the deadweight loss which will be:
= 1/2 x Difference in price x Difference in quantity
= 1/2 x (1,497.61 - 1,495.05) x (495 - 239)
= 1/2 x 2.56 x 256
= 327.68
First and Ten Corporation’s stock returns have a covariance with the market portfolio of .0415. The standard deviation of the returns on the market portfolio is 20% and the expected market risk premium is 6.7%. The company has bonds outstanding with a total market value of $55 million and a yield to maturity of 6.5%. The company also has 4.2 million shares of common stock outstanding, each selling for $35. The company’s CEO considers the firm’s current debt-equity ratio optimal. The corporate tax rate is 21% and Treasury bills currently yield 3.4%. The company is considering the purchase of additional equipment that would cost $49 million. The expected unlevered cash flows from the equipment are $16.4 million per year for five years. Purchasing the equipment will not change the risk level of the firm. Calculate the NPV of the project.
Answer:
NPV of the project = $14,906,309.99
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for calculation of the NPV of the project (in bold red color).
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) used in calculating the discounting factor used in the attached excel file is calculated as follows:
Cost of equity = Treasury bills current yield + (Stock returns covariance with the market portfolio / Standard deviation of the returns on the market portfolio^2) * Expected market risk premium = 3.4% + (0.0415 / 20%^2) * 6.7% = 10.35%
After tax cost of debt = Bond yield to maturity * (100% - Tax rate) = 6.5% * (100% - 21%) = 5.14%
Market value of debt = $55,000,000
Market value of equity = Shares of common stock outstanding * Market price per share = 4,200,000 * $35 = $147,000,000
Total market value = Market value of equity + Market value of debt = $147,000,000 + $55,000,000 = $202,000,000
Equity share in the market value = $147,000,000 / $202,000,000 = 72.77%
Debt share in the market value = $55,000,000 / $202,000,000 = 27.23%
WACC = (Cost of equity * Equity share in the market value) + (After tax cost of debt * Debt share in the market value) = (10.35% * 72.77%) + (5.14% * 27.23%) = 8.93%
From attached excel file, we have:
NPV of the project = $14,906,309.99
A company is investing in a solar panel system to reduce its electricity costs. The system requires a cash payment of $118,982.50 today. The system is expected to generate net cash flows of $10,209 per year for the next 35 years. The investment has zero salvage value. The company requires an 7% return on its investments. 1-a. Compute the net present value of this investment. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your present value factor to 4 decimals.) 1-b. Should the project be accepted
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the net present value is given below:
a.
As we know that
Net present value
= Annual cash inflows × PVIFA factor at 7% for 35 years - initial investment
= $10,209 × 12.9477 - $118,982.50
= $132,183.0693 - $118,982.50
= $13,200.57
Hence, the net present value is $13,200.57
b. Yes the project should be accepted as it net present value comes in positive amount

The following labor standards have been established for a particular product: Standard labor hours per unit of output 4.5 hours Standard labor rate $ 17.60 per hour The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual hours worked 6,100 hours Actual total labor cost $ 107,970 Actual output 1,300 units Required: a. What is the labor rate variance for the month
Answer:
4400 Unfavorable
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the labor rate variance for the month
First step is to calculate the Standard hours using this formula
Standard hours = Standard labor-hours per unit of output*Actual output
Let plug in the formula
Standard hours= 4.5*1,300 units
Standard hours= 5850
Now let calculate the Direct labor efficiency variance using this formula
Direct labor efficiency variance = (Standard hours - Actual hours)*Standard rate
Let plug in the formula
Direct labor efficiency variance= (5,850-6,100)*17.60
Direct labor efficiency variance= 4400 Unfavorable
Therefore the labor rate variance for the month is 4400 Unfavorable

For each of the following characteristics, indicate whether it describes a perfectly competitive firm, a monopolistically competitive firm, both, or neither.
Characteristic Perfectly Monopolistically
Competitive Competitive
Charges a price that is the same as marginal cost.
Sells a product differentiated from those of its competitors.
Produces at the efficient scale of the firm.
Equates marginal revenue and marginal cost.
Operates with excess capacity.
Earns economic profit in the long run.
Answer:
a perfectly competitive firm
a monopolistically competitive firm
a perfectly competitive firm
Both the perfectly competitive firm and monopolistically competitive firm
a monopolistically competitive firm
Neither firms
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
Firms are productive and allocative efficient and do not operate with excess capacity
A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry. A monopoly has characteristics of both a monopoly and a perfect competition. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services. As a result, price is always higher than marginal cost
Profit is maximised when marginal revenue equal marginal cost
An example of monopolistic competition are restaurants

Grassley Corporation allocates administrative costs on the basis of staff hours. Short-run monthly usage and anticipated long-run monthly usage of staff hours for Operating Departments 1 and 2 follow. Department 1 Department 2 Total Short-run usage (hours) 40,000 60,000 100,000 Long-run usage (hours) 45,000 55,000 100,000 If Grassley uses dual-cost accounting procedures and variable administrative costs total $200,000, the amount of variable administrative cost to allocate to Department 1 would be
Answer:
$80,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what the amount of variable administrative cost to allocate to Department 1 would be
Variable administrative cost to allocate to Department 1=(40,000 ÷100,000) x $200,000
Variable administrative cost to allocate to Department 1=0.4×$200,000
Variable administrative cost to allocate to Department 1= $80,000
Therefore The Variable administrative cost to allocate to Department 1 would be $80,000

Morgana Company identifies three activities in its manufacturing process: machine setups, machining, and inspections. Estimated annual overhead cost for each activity is $205,900, $265,100, and $78,400, respectively. The cost driver for each activity and the estimated annual usage are number of setups 2,900, machine hours 24,100, and number of inspections 1,600. Compute the overhead rate for each activity.
Answer:
Overhead cost per set-up =$71
Overhead cost per machine hour =$11
Overhead cost per inspection=$49
Explanation:
Activity-based costing is a form of absorption costing where overheads are charged to product using cost drivers. Under this method, overheads are first analyzed and categorized by the activities responsible for them and then charged to product based on the amount of benefits enjoyed using cost drivers.
Activity rate is calculated as:
Activity cost for the period / Total cost drivers for the period
So, we can apply this formula as follows:
Overhead cost per set-up = $205,900/2,900 set-ups=$71
Overhead cost per machine hour = $265,100/24,100 hours=$11
Overhead cost per inspection = $78,400/1,600 inspection=$49

Peter wishes to create a retirement fund from which he can draw when he retires and the same amount at each anniversary of his retirement for years. He plans to retire years from now. What investment need he make today if he can get a return of per year, compounded annually
Answer:
$65,742.60
Explanation:
Note: The full question is "Peter wishes to create a retirement fund from which he can draw $20,000 when he retires and the same amount at each anniversary of his retirement for 10 years. He plans to retire 20 years from now. What investment need he make today if he can get a return of 5% per year, com- pounded annually?"
At first, we need to find the PV of withdrawals and there are 11 withdrawals starting 20 years from now.
PV = PMT/r * 1 - 1/(1+r)^n. This formula gives the PV one period before the first withdrawal. That is 19 years from now because the first withdrawal is 20 years from now.
PMT = 20,000, n = 11,
r = 0.05
PV19 = 20,000/0.05 * [1 - 1/(1+0.05)^11]
PV19 = 400,000 * 0.4153207109
PV19 = 166,128.28436
Now, we need to discount this back to toda
PV0 = PV19/(1 + r)^n; n = 19, r = 0.05
PV0 = 166,128.28436/(1 + 0.05)^1
PV0 = $65,742.6033421702
PV0 = $65,742.60
So, Peter needs to make $65,742.60 today.

The following information is available for the year ended December 31: Beginning raw materials inventory$12,000 Raw materials purchases 88,000 Ending raw materials inventory 11,400 Manufacturing supplies expense 800 The amount of raw materials used in production for the year is: Multiple Choice $88,600. $76,600. $89,400. $87,400.
Answer:
Direct material used= $88,600
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning raw materials inventory$12,000
Raw materials purchase 88,000
Ending raw materials inventory 11,400
To calculate the direct material used in production, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory
Direct material used= 12,000 + 88,000 - 11,400
Direct material used= $88,600
Sophia just graduated from college. She just sold the furniture from her college apartment for $450 in cash. She just deposited $2,700 in graduation money into her checking account and has $7,500 saved in her savings account from working part-time. She charged gas and groceries to her credit card that she hasn't paid off yet. The total balance on her credit card is $179. Sophia has driven the same car since high school that is valued at $3,254. She doesn't have an auto loan. Her total student loan amount after graduating is $54,178. What is Sophia's net worth? (Do not include the $ sign or commas in your answer).
Answer:
Sophia's Net Worth
Sophia's net worth is:
= ($40,453).
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Assets:
Proceeds from sale of furniture = $450
Checking account deposit = 2,700
Savings account 7,500
Car 3,254
Total assets $13,904
Liabilities:
Credit card $179
Student loan after graduating 54,178
Total liabilities $54,357
Sophia's net worth = ($40,453)
b) Sophia's net worth is in the negative because of the student loan. This implies that she is in debt. A negative net worth simply means that Sophia owes more than she owns. In other words, Sophia's liabilities exceed her assets' value.
Tim, a single taxpayer, operates a business as a single-member LLC. In 2020, his LLC reports business income of $382,000 and business deductions of $668,500, resulting in a loss of $286,500. What are the implications of this business loss
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
First, it should be noted that a threshold limit of $250,000 applies to the question according to IRS since Tim is a single taxpayer.
Therefore, the excess business loss will be:
= $286,500 - $250,000
= $36500
Therefore, Tim can use $250000 out of the loss of $286,500 to offset the non business income. Then, the excess business loss of $36500 will be treated as part of the NOL carryforward for Tim.
