Samuel, Inc. has Accounts Receivable of $110,000 and an Allowance for Doubtful Accounts of $17,000. If it writes-off a customer account balance of $1,700, what is the amount of its net accounts receivable?A) 591,300. B) $108,300. C) $110,000. D) $93,000.
Answer:
the net account receivable is d. $93,000
Explanation:
The computation of the net account receivable is shown below:
= (Account receivable - written off amount) - (Allowance for doubtful accounts - written off amount)
= ($110,000 - $1,700) - ($17,000 - $1,700)
= $108,300 - $15,300
= $93,000
Hence, the net account receivable is $93,000

If Buddies wants to maximize its profits, how many pairs of ear buds should it produce?B. At the profit-maximizing quantity, what is the total cost of producing ear buds?C. If the market price for ear buds is $6 per pair, and Buddies produces the profit-maximizing quantity of ear buds, what is Buddies weekly profit?D. If the market price is $5.50 per pair, and Buddies produces the profit-maximizing quantity of ear buds, what is Buddies weekly profit?E. Buddies earns a normal profit whena. marginal cost equals average cost at the minimum of average cost.b. marginal cost equals average cost.c. marginal cost equals marginal revenue at the minimum of marginal cost.d. average cost equals average revenue at the minimum of average cost.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The number of pairs of ear buds that should be produced for maximizing the profits is
As we know that
MR = MC
Q = 35
And also the price is equal to the MC
Hence, the quantity that should be produced would be 35
b). The total cost of producing ear buds for maximizing the profit is
As we know that
TC = ATC × Q
= 4.5 × 35
= $157.5
c. The weekly profit is
As we know that
Profit = TR - TC
= (P - ATC) × Q
= (6 - 4.5) × 35
= $52.5
d) The weekly profit is
Profit= (5.5 - 4.25) × 30
= $37.5
e. The normal profit could be earned at the time when the marginal cost is equivalent to the average cost that contains the minimum
Hence, the option a is correct
A country has nominal GDP equal to $204.31 billion in 2018. The GDP deflator in 2018 has a value of 112.64. What was the value of real GDP, in billions of dollars. Round to two decimal places. If your answer is 3.2 billion then just enter 3.2.
Answer:
$181.38 billion
Explanation:
The computation of the value of the real GDP is shown below:
As we know that
Real GDP = (Nominal GDP ÷ GDP Deflator) × 100
= ($204.31 billion ÷ 112.64) × 100
= $181.38 billion
Hence, the value of real GDP is $181.38 billion

An unfavorable production-volume variance ________. A. is not a good measure of a lost production opportunity B. indicates that the company had reduced its per unit fixed overhead cost to improve sales C. takes into account the effect of additional revenues due to maintaining higher prices D. measures the amount of extra fixed costs planned for but not used
Answer:
d) measures the amount of extra fixed costs planned for but not used
Explanation:
An unfavorable production-volume variance measures the amount of extra fixed costs planned for but not used. As per production-volume variance extra fixed costs planned for but not used has unfavorable production-volume variance.
When production-volume variance is unfavorable, that means the fixed cost are allocated on lesser number of manufactured units, hence it indicates that the fixed costs are not controlled well.
Suppose that United States produces 10,000,000 barrels of oil and 1,000 bushels of wheat each week. Suppose that Pakistan produces 9753 barrels of oil and 9753 bushels of wheat each week. 1. In autarky, what is the largest amount of wheat United States can consume every week? Number bushels 2. What does the term autarky refer to? a) The process of negotiating terms of trade between two countries. b) A major argument against globalization. c) countries Government policies meant to reduce international trade. d) A situation where one country does not engage in trade with other
Answer:
1. 1,000 bushels of wheat
2. d) A situation where one country does not engage in trade with other
Explanation:
1 & 2. Autarky refers to a situation where a country does not engage in trade with other countries but rather relies on its own production capacities to feed the consumption in the country.
Autarkies in the current world are not a thing because countries trade with each other. Even North Korea trades with Russia, China and others.
In an Autarky situation therefore, the United States would only be able to consume the wheat that it produces itself which according to the question is 1,000 bushels of wheat.
Answer: 1. 1000 bushels of wheat.
2. A situation where one country does not engage in trade with other.
Explanation:
Autarky simply refers to an economy that's self sufficient and doesn't depend on other economies and doesn't trade with them.
1. The largest amount of wheat that the United States can consume every week will be 1000 bushels of wheat. This is because in autarky, nations won't engage in trading so whatever quantity of whameat that's produced will be consumed.
2. Autarky situation where one country does not engage in trade with other. Therefore, the correct option is D.

Cynthia Ogago is planning to make investment in a scheme
earning 10% interest rate and expects to receive ksh. 50,000
after 3 years. Advise her on how much she needs to invest now
in order to achieve these
O a. Ksh. 50,000
O b. Ksh. 66,550
O c. Ksh. 35,656
O d. Ksh. 37,566
Answer:
d. Ksh. 37,566
Explanation:
The $50,000 represent the future amount expected after 3 years.
the interest rate is 10%.
Implementing the formula A = P x ( 1+ r) ^n
A= $50,000
P= amount to invest
R=10% or 0.10
n=3 years
Ksh.50,000 = P x (1 + 0.10) ^ 3
Kshs.50,000 = P x (1.1) ^3
Kshs.50,000 = P x 1.331
P= Kshs50,000 / 1.331
P=Kshs.37,565.74
= Kshs. 37,566

Ending Balance $3,200
Total $233,200
Why use applied overheads instead of actual overheads
We assign applied overheads to Work-in-Process Inventory. This is because the actuals are usually not readily available to costs the products and determine selling prices. The actuals are available later during the end of the period and using these, we would delay the product costing and pricing seasons.
Explanation:
Required 1
Theses are journal entries. Accumulate the production costs in the Work In Process Inventory Account. When units are completed, the cost from the Work In Process to the Finished Goods Account.
Required 2
This is the overheads Account. On the debit side of this account we record the overheads actually incurred during the production period. On the credit side we record the overheads applied. The balance of this account is either overapplied (debit) or under-applied (credit). In our case, we had an overapplied situation (debit).
Required 3
This is the Work-in-Process Account. Make sure to include the applied overheads instead of actual overheads.
The next dividend payment by Skippy, Inc., will be $2.95 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a growth rate of 4.8 percent, forever. If the stock currently sells for $53.10 per share, what is the required return?A) 2.67%
B) 5.56%
C) 4.80%
D) 10.36%
E) .27%
Answer:
the correct option is D. 10.36%
Explanation:
The computation of the required return is shown below:
As we know that
Current Price = Expected Dividend ÷ (Required Return - Growth Rate)
(Required Return - Growth Rate) = Expected Dividend ÷ Current Price
Required Return = (Expected Dividend ÷ Current Price ) + Growth rate
= ($2.95 ÷ $ 53.10) + 4.8%
= 10.36%
hence, the correct option is D. 10.36%

Steve Colburn's portable sawmill used 100% for business, was completely destroyed by fire. The sawmill had an adjusted basis of $35,000 and a fair market value of $50,000 before the fire. The sawmill was uninsured. Steve's casualty loss is:________.1) $49,900.
2) $50,000.
3) $35,000.
4) $34,900.
Answer: $35,000
Explanation:
A casualty loss is simply a loss that an individual or business incurs when a property is damaged, or destroyed due to an unexpected or sudden event like fire, volcanic eruption, flood etc.
Here, Steve's casualty loss will be gotten when we compare both his adjusted basis and the fair market value and then we choose the lesser one. Since $35000 is lesser than $50000, therefore the answer will be $35000.
Using the following year-end information for Bauman, LLC, calculate the current ratio and acid-test ratio:_______. Cash $70,200 Short-term investments 12,800 Accounts receivable 49,500 Inventory 242,000 Prepaid expenses 18,000 Accounts payable 100,500 Other current payables 28,000a. 3.05 and 1.03. b. 2.91 and .97. c. 1.17 and 3.91. d. .97 and 3.05.
Answer:
a. 3.05 and 1.03
Explanation:
The formula for current ratio is
= Current assets/Current liabilities
= (Cash + Short term investment + Accounts receivable + Inventory + Prepaid expenses) / (Accounts payable + Other current payables)
= (70,200 + 12,800 + 49,500 + 242,000 + 18,000) / (100,500 + 28,000)
= 392,500 / 128,500
= 3.05
The formula for Acid test ratio is
= Quick Assets / Current liabilities
= (Cash + Short term investment + Accounts receivable) / (Accounts payable + Other current payables)
= (70,200 + 12,800 + 49,500) / (100,500 + 28,000)
= 132,500 / 128,500
= 1.03
What is the rate of return on an investment of $124,090 if the company expects to receive $10,000 per year for the next 30 years? A. 5.5 percent B. 4 percent C. 7 percent D. 6 percent
Answer:
C. 7 percent
Explanation:
The computation of the rate of return on the investment is shown below:
Given that
PV = $124,090
FV = $0
PMT = $10,000
NPER = 30
The formula is shown below:
=RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;TYPE)
The present value comes in negative
After applying the above formula, the rate of return is 7%
Hence, the rate of return on the investment is 7%
The correct option is c. 7%
If any portion of a long-term debt is to be paid in the next year, the entire debt should be classified as a current liability. A. True B. False
Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
The portion of a long term liability that is due within one year is called current portion of long-term debt (CPLTD). The name basically explains everything. E.g. you owe a note receivable worth $100,000 and every year you must pay an installment of $10,000 plus interest. The CPLTD (current liability) = $10,000, and the long term debt = $90,000.
How much will Marie have in her retirement account in years if her contribution is $ per year and the annual return on the account is %? How much of this amount represents interest? The amount Marie will have is:_________
Answer:
The amount is constant so is an annuity and the value at the end of 10 years is the future value of an annuity.
Future value of annuity = Annuity * Future value interest factor of annuity, 10 years, 6%
= 7,000 * 13.1808
= $92,265.60
Value at the end of 10 years is $92,265.60.
The interest is;
= 92,265.60 - (7,000 * 10 years)
= 92,265.60 - 70,000
= $22,265.60
In a SWOT analysis, what are strengths?
Answer:
A SWOT analysis is an evaluation of your company's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.
Explanation:
The SWOT approach is a useful tool to support various brainstorming sessions due to its benefits, such as its ability to address a variety of business difficulties.
What is SWOT analysis?Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats is referred to as SWOT. Your company's internal strengths and weaknesses are factors over which you have some control and which you can make changes. Examples include your team members, your intellectual property and patents, and your location.
A SWOT analysis is a strategic planning tool that assists businesses in gaining a comprehensive understanding of their key difficulties and in choosing actions that will actually support their success.
The acronym stands for the four principles of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in English.
An organization or project's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats are identified using a SWOT analysis, a planning technique.
With this approach, you concentrate your analysis on the three Cs, or strategic triangle, which are the company, the competitors, and the customers.
Finding the key success factor (KSF) and developing a workable marketing strategy can both be accomplished by carefully examining these three components.

Why is it important to know the cost of inspection in a particular areas of business organization?
Explanation:
Every regulated organization understands the need to implement a quality system. In fact, it’s a “shall” clause for all life sciences companies to ensure they are in compliance with industry regulations. The focus of any effective quality system is, and rightly so, all about ensuring patient safety. From there, as the organization matures, its people, processes and technology evolve from a compliance, to a correction, to a prevention mindset, eventually resulting in increased quality brand recognition and shareholder value.
In the real world, companies need to engage quality system processes, such corrective and preventive action (CAPA), as the lifeline to feed improvements through the change management processes into the product lifecycle, from design inputs to manufacturer and supplier outputs.
Defining the cost of quality
As we look at process and product improvements, quantifying the “quality” costs to the organization is defined as the Cost of Quality (COQ). Why quantify the quality data? The COQ categorizes these costs so the organization can see how moving from a quality assurance (control and correction) focus to a focus on prevention helps to reduce the cost of nonconformances.
The American Society of Quality (ASQ) uses the following formula to calculate the COQ:
Cost of Quality (COQ) = Cost or Poor Quality (COPQ) + Cost of Good Quality (COGQ)
The COPQ contains all the costs of nonconformances that are both internal and external to the organization; whereas, the COGQ contains the cost of quality conformance, including any costs associated with both appraisal and prevention.
Some examples would be:
COPQ – Internal Costs (defects occurring and managed within the organization)
Scrap, Rework, Re-inspection
COPQ – External Costs (defects that reach the consumer)
Adverse Event Reporting, Warranty, Corrections and Removals, Product Liability, loss of brand reputation
COGQ – Appraisal Costs (controls put in place by the organization)
Inspection (purchased, manufactured), Testing (acceptance, field), Quality Audits, Calibration
COGQ – Prevention Costs (activities to eliminate defects from ever occurring)
SPC (statistical process control), Quality Planning, Quality Training, investment in quality-related information systems
What is the cost to your organization?
In the life sciences industry, analysts have stated that less than 50 percent of companies really know what the COQ is for their organization. However, ASQ, Crosby, and FDA Case for Quality show that the COQ for an organization can range from 3 – 25% of a company’s revenue. The good news is that there are known strategies that can be put in place to drive down the COQ which will have a direct positive impact on the profitability of your organization, and it’s all within your control.
Strategies for cost improvements
Every company is at a different point in the evolution of its people, processes and technology implementations, and even its understanding of its key metrics/performance indicators or COQ. Management could consider leveraging the following strategies to reduce their company’s COPQ and positively impact its quality and profitability performance.
Improve supplier relationships for both product and process improvements
Collaborate during design process, engage suppliers in the corrective action process (from incoming, manufacturing or customer-reported problems), develop supplier scorecards, audit suppliers based on their product/process risk levels
Karen Moore is a new employee with Cars R Us. One of her first responsibilities as the new HR Director is to create an incentive program for the organization. Cars R Us specializes in selling and leasing mid-priced vehicles across the United States. The organization has locations in each state in the four main regions of the United States. Recently, however, employee performance has been declining along with the unfortunate decline of car sales.
Before Ms. Moore creates an incentive program, she knows she will need to identify what is best practice for the industry, what the organization has done to reward the employees in the past as well as know what the financial constraints are to the new incentive program. Once completed, she will be able to implement a well-constructed incentive program established with the goals of increasing employee job satisfaction and performance as well as improve the companyâs financial position.
One of the first items on Ms. Mooreâs agenda is to identify the preferred method of earning rewards. In reviewing the results of a recent survey completed by more than 60 percent of the employees, she learns that the employees are competitive and are interested in group incentives programs as well as individual rewards.
Ms. Moore recommends Cars R Us include a _______ system that will provide all employees to receive a portion of the increase in productivity and effectiveness.
A. gainsharing
B. cost
C. equity
D. reduction
E. timesharing
Answer: A. gainsharing
Explanation:
A Gainsharing system is the one that Ms. Moore recommended because it involves providing employees with a portion of the increase in gains accrued from increased productivity and effectiveness.
Gainsharing ensures that employees are motivated to work harder for the company because they get a share if the company improves its productivity so they will have a vested interest in ensuring that the company becomes better.

Entity A supplies planed timber, paint, varnish, springs, upholstery, and cushioning to EntityB, which produces a ready to use furniture. Entity C is the marketing department of Entity B. In this context, ______.a. A is an upstream supply chain member, while C is the downstream chain memberb. C is an upstream supply chain member, while A is the downstream chain memberc. B is an upstream supply chain member, while A is the downstream chain memberd. C is an upstream supply chain member, while B is the downstream chain member
Answer:
a. A is an upstream supply chain member, while C is the downstream chain member
Explanation:
Supply chain management can be defined as the effective and efficient management of the flow of goods and services as well as all of the production processes involved in the transformation of raw materials into finished products that meet the insatiable want and need of the consumers. Generally, the supply chain management involves all the activities associated with planning, execution and supply of finished goods and services to the consumers.
The key principle of supply chain management can be best summed up as collaboration between multiple firms. These multiple firms include a company that is saddled with the responsibility of manufacturing, a wholesaler, and a retailer who typically sells the products to the customers or consumers.
Basically, these three (3) firms or individuals are required to collaborate with each other so as to meet the needs of the customers in a timely manner or fashion and at a fair price too.
Entity A supplies planed timber, paint, varnish, springs, upholstery, and cushioning to Entity B, which produces a ready to use furniture. Entity C is the marketing department of Entity B.
In this context, Entity A is an upstream supply chain member, while Entity C is the downstream chain member.
The upstream supply chain member are the suppliers of raw materials to another organization for its production line while the downstream chain member are the intermediary between the manufacturer and the consumer.
Ivanhoe Company sublet a portion of its warehouse for five years at an annual rental of $71100, beginning on May 1, 2020. The tenant, Barbara Jones, paid one year's rent in advance, which Ivanhoe recorded as a credit to Unearned Rent Revenue. Ivanhoe reports on a calendar-year basis. The adjustment on December 31, 2020 for Ivanhoe should be:________.
Answer and Explanation:
The adjustment should be as follows
Unearned Rent Revenue $47,400
To Rent Revenue $47,400
(Being recording of revenue earned is recorded)
Here unearned rent revenue is debited as it decreased the liabilities and the rent revenue is credited as it increased the revenue. Also liabilities and revenue contains the normal debit balance
The working is shown below:
= $71,100 × 8 months ÷ 12 months
= $47,400
The eight months are calculated from May 1 to December 31
Regarding limited partners:________.
a. if the partnership agreement is silent as to notice required prior to termination, 90 days' written notice is required before the limited partner may withdraw.
b. they may not withdraw before the time that the partners have agreed the partnership will terminate.
c. they must obtain a court order to withdraw because of their limited liability and its effect on the remaining partners and third parties dealing with the business.
d. they may withdraw from the partnership at any time, but they forfeit their investment if they withdraw early.
Answer:
a. if the partnership agreement is silent as to notice required prior to termination, 90 days' written notice is required before the limited partner may withdraw.
Explanation:
Limited partners: The term "limited partner" is described as a "part-owner" of a specific company or organization whose liability associated with the company's debts can't exceed the amount that a person invested in that company. Limited partners are also referred to as "silent partners".
A "limited partner" can withdraw himself or herself from the company or firm any time he or she wants after a six months notice to the other partners, and the person who is withdrawing is being entitled to any specific distribution based on the agreement or, if none, associated with the "fair value" of the interest on the basis of the right to share in "distributions".
In the question above, the correct answer is option a.
Giving customers time to pay their bill generates more sales. But when a recession hits, they may have trouble making payments. If you have businesses as clients, they may have slow-paying customers, and that means they will be slow to pay you. That is what happened to a company that offered a discount card as its primary product. The owner estimated that 50 percent of the firm's customers—other small businesses—were behind in paying what they owed. The owner needed those customers to keep his business operating, so he was hesitant to demand payment on past due accounts.
1. Should a small business owner push customers to pay when times are tough? Why or why not?
2. What problems do you think a business services company might have when is customers do not pay?
Answer:
1. A compromise should be reached.
In the recession, the other small businesses are suffering including the company in question. If the owner pushes the customers to pay their bills, when the recession ends they may move to other vendors which would have made demanding money from them in the recession a myopic and damaging move.
The business however, also has bills to pay and so needs money to maintain operations as well. A compromise needs to be reached. The owner should contact the other businesses still owing and negotiate with them to pay a certain portion of what they owe with the rest coming later.
This could give the owner enough to keep the business running whilst maintaining the loyalty of his customers.
2. Problems that a business services company could have if customers do not pay include;
Inability to pay staff. Inability to pay utilities like electricity.Inability to pay rent and other expenses.Increased risk of debt default.Growth of company suffers.Use the information for the question(s) below. Rosewood Industries has EBIT of $450 million, interest expense of $175 million, and a corporate tax rate of 35% If Rosewood had no interest expense, its net income would be closest to:___________ a. $430 million b. $160 million c. $290 million d. $405 million
Answer:
$180 million
Explanation:
Net income is calculated as;

Assume you have a 1-year investment horizon and are trying to choose among three bonds. All have the same degree of default risk and mature in 10 years. The first is a zero-coupon bond that pays $1,000 at maturity. The second has an 6.2% coupon rate and pays the $62 coupon once per year. The third has a 7.2% coupon rate and pays the $72 coupon once per year.
a. If all three bonds are now priced to yield 7% to maturity, what are their prices?
b. If you expect their yields to maturity to be 7% at the beginning of next year, what will their prices be then? What is your before-tax holding-period return on each bond? If your tax bracket is 30% on ordinary income and 20% on capital gains income, what will your aftertax rate of return be on each?
c. If you expect their yields to maturity to be 6% at the beginning of next year, what will their prices be then? What is your before-tax holding-period return on each bond? If your tax bracket is 30% on ordinary income and 20% on capital gains income, what will your aftertax rate of return be on each?
Answer:
a. If all three bonds are now priced to yield 7% to maturity, what are their prices?
zero coupon bond = $1,000 / (1 + 7%)¹⁰ = $508.35
6.2% coupon bond:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 7%)¹⁰ = $508.35
PV of coupon payments = $62 x 7.0236 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 10 periods) = $435.46
market price = $943.81
7.2% coupon bond:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 7%)¹⁰ = $508.35
PV of coupon payments = $72 x 7.0236 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 10 periods) = $505.70
market price = $1,014.05
b. If you expect their yields to maturity to be 7% at the beginning of next year, what will their prices be then? What is your before-tax holding-period return on each bond? If your tax bracket is 30% on ordinary income and 20% on capital gains income, what will your aftertax rate of return be on each?
zero coupon bond = $1,000 / (1 + 7%)⁹ = $543.93
before tax holding period return = ($543.93 - $508.35) / $508.35 = 7%
after tax HPR = 7% x 0.8 = 5.6%
6.2% coupon bond:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 7%)⁹ = $543.93
PV of coupon payments = $62 x 6.5152 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 10 periods) = $403.94
market price = $947.87
before tax holding period return = ($947.87 - $943.81 + $62) / $943.81 = 7%
after tax HPR:
($4.06 x 0.8) / $943.81 = 0.34%
($62 x 0.7) / $943.81 = 4.60%

Anna Garden recently opened her own basketweaving studio. She sells finished baskets in addition to selling the raw materials needed by customers to weave baskets of their own. Unfortunately, owing to space limitations, Anna is unable to carry all varieties of kits originally assembled and must choose between two basic packages.
The Basic Kit includes undyed, uncut reeds (with dye included) for weaving one basket. This basic package costs Anna $16 and sells for $30. The second kit, called Stage 2, includes cut reeds that have already been dyed. With this kit the customer need only soak the reeds and weave the basket. Anna produces the Stage 2 kit by using the materials included in the Basic Kit. Because she is more efficient at cutting and dying reeds than her average customer, Anna is able to produce two Stage 2 kits in one hour from one Basic Kit. (She values her time at $18 per hour.) The Stage 2 kit sells for $36.
Prepare an incremental analysis for Anna's basket weaving studio.
Answer:
Stage 1 kit Stage 2 kit Differential amount
Selling price $30 $36 $6
Materials cost ($16) ($16) $0
per unit
Additional labor $0 $18/2 = ($9) ($9)
cost per unit
Contribution margin $14 $11 ($3)
per unit
Anna will lose $3 for every Stage 2 kit that she sells. Only if he is able to sell a much higher quantity of Stage 2 kits would it be worth it, but under current conditions Anna should focus on selling Stage 1 kits.

Answer: B. there is also an excess demand for bonds
Explanation:
When there is an excess supply of money in the economy, there is also an excess demand for bonds.
This is because in his case, rather than holding money, individuals will want to increase their being holdings and therefore, this will lead to the reduction in their holding of money. Equilibrium will further be restored as there'll be reduction in interest rate.
