Webber Technologies is an emerging manufacturer of 3.5 inch diagonal touch screens for mobile communication devices/media players. 2011 industry sales were reported at 17.50 million units. This number represents an 17.7 % increase over 2010 industry sales. Webber Technologies had a 2010 market share of 5.9 %, compared with a 2011 market share of 4.2%. What was the change in unit sales for Webber Technologies, from 2010 to 2011, attributable to the change in industry sales

Answers

Answer:

Industry Sales (2011) = 17,500,000

Industry Sales (2010) = Sales of 2011/1+growth = 17,500,000/1+17.7% = 17,500,000/1.177 = $14868309.26083263 = $14,868,309.26

Company Sales (2011) = 17,500,000 * 4.2% = $735,000

Company Sales (2010) = 14,868,309.26 * 5.9% = $877,230.25

Change in units = Company sales in 2011 - Company Sales in 2010  = $735,000 - $877,230.25 = $142,230.25

Change due to change in Industry growth = Company Sales in 2010 * 17.7% = $877,230.25 * 17.7% = 155,269.75

So, there is net increase of 155,269.75 units of sales due to industry growth.

During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000. As of year end, Beta had resold only 60 percent of these intra-entity purchases. Alpha sells inventory to Beta at the same markup it uses for all of its customers. What is the total for consolidated cost of goods sold

Answers

Answer:

a. $173,000

Explanation:

Missing word "Alpha Company owns 80 percent of the voting stock of Beta Company. Alpha and Beta reported the following account information from their year-end separate financial records: Alpha Beta Inventory $95,000 $88,000 Sales Revenue 800,000 300,000 Cost of Goods Sold 600,000 180,000 During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000."

Percentage of profits Alpha charge to other customers = ($800,000 - $600,000) / $800,000 = 25% of sales

Stock held at year end by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $100,000 * 40% =$40,000

Profit involved in stock held by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $40,000 * 25% = $10,000

So, Value of stock of Beta = $88,000 - $10,000 = $78,000

Hence, Total for consolidated inventory = $95,000 + $78,000 = $173,000

The statement "The courts ruled that the pay disparity between the sexes at Jaxon Corp. was illegal and ordered the company to remedy it. Jaxon Corp. cannot lower the wages of the higher-paid group in order to comply with the law" is true.

What is disparity?

The disparity can be defined as a lack of equality or likeness, particularly in an unfair way: the widening discrepancy between the affluent and poor.

Inequalities in other parts of society, such as the legal system, education, academe, commercial institutions, and politics, are referred to as social disparities. Most of the time, the social discrepancies listed above are the result of other disparities, such as economic disparity, gender disparity, or racial disparity.

The courts determined that Jaxon Corp.'s wage inequality between the sexes was unconstitutional and ordered the corporation to correct it. To comply with the legislation, Jaxon Corp. cannot reduce the compensation of the higher-paid group. Therefore, the above statement is true.

Calculate the direct materials used in production for the month of June.

Answers

Answer:

$135,000

Explanation:

The direct materials used in production for the month of June is computed as;

= Materials inventory at June 1 + Materials purchased during the month of June - Materials inventory at June 30

= $135,000

Therefore, the direct materials used in production for the month of June is $135,000

Bridges and Lloyd, an accounting firm, provides consulting and tax planning services. For many years, the firm's total administrative cost (currently $250,000) has been allocated to services on the basis of billable hours to clients. A recent analysis found that 65% of the firm's billable hours to clients resulted from tax planning services, while 35% resulted from consulting services. The firm, contemplating a change to activity-based costing, has identified three components of administrative cost, as follows: Staff Support $ 180,000 In-house computing charges 50,000 Miscellaneous office costs 20,000 Total $ 250,000 A recent analysis of staff support found a strong correlation between the number of staff personnel and the number of clients served (consulting, 20; tax planning, 60). In contrast, in-house computing and miscellaneous office cost varied directly with the number of computer hours logged and number of client transactions, respectively. Consulting consumed 30% of the firm's computer hours and had 20% of the total client transactions.

Answers

Answer: Decrease by $23,500

Explanation:

The Consulting cost under their current accounting system is:

= 250,000 * 35%

= $87,500

Under Activity based:

Staff support for Consulting:

20 goes to Consulting, 60 to tax planning.

Total = 20 + 60 = 80

Consulting is 20/80 of Staff support amount

= 20/80 * 180,000

= $45,000

In house computing charges for Consulting

Consulting consumed 30% of the firm's computer hours.

= 30% * 50,000

= $15,000

Miscellaneous office costs

Consulting consumed 20% of total client transactions

= 20% * 20,000

= $4,000

Total cost for Consulting under Activity based = 45,000 + 15,000 + 4,000

= $64,000

Difference = 87,500 - 64,000

= $23,500

Also, the company owed the gas and electric company $1,000 at year-end, and the rent payment was for a two-year period. Calculate accrual net income for the year.

Answers

Answer:

Net Income for the year is $174,000

Explanation:

Net Income Calculation for the year is done below:

Particulars                                                            $

Revenues (290,000 + 50,000)                      340,000

Less: Rent (30,000 / 2)                                    (15,000)

Less: Salaries                                                   (110,000)

Less: Utilities (40,000 + 1,000)                        (41,000)

Net Income                                                        174,000

Please note the following with regard to the calculation done above:

Revenue includes both the cash collected from customers and cash owed by the customers, which received later on at the end of the year.Rent has been divided by two, this is due to the fact that calculation of  net income is done for the current period so only one year rent is taken.Utilities include cash paid for utilities and the amount company owed to gas & electric company.

Assume GE has a 35% income tax rate. As of the 2016 year-end, how much has GE saved in taxes by choosing LIFO over FIFO method for costing inventory

Answers

Answer:

$ 244 million

Explanation:

Calculation for how much has GE saved in taxes by choosing LIFO over FIFO method for costing inventory

Tax rate Amount (In millions)

LIFO $ 10,315.00 35% =$ 3,610.25

FIFO $ 11,012.00 35% =$ 3,854.20

Savings in taxes $ (697.00) $ (243.95)

Hence,

Savings in taxes=$ 3,610.25 million-$ 3,854.20 million

Savings in taxes=($243.95 million)

Savings in taxes=($ 244 million) Approximately

Therefore the amount that GE saved in taxes by choosing LIFO over FIFO method for costing inventory will be $ 244 million

Scott wants to accumulate $3,800 over a period of 11 years so that a cash payment can be made for roof maintenance on his summer cottage. To have this amount when it is needed, he will make annual deposits at the end of each year into a savings account that earns 7.0% annual interest per year. How much must each annual deposit be

Answers

Answer:

$240.76

Explanation:

The formula to determine the annual deposit is :

p = FV / annuity factor

Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years  

Annuity factor = (1.07^11 - 1) / 0.07 = 15.783599

p = $3800 / 15.783599 = $240.76

REQUIRED:
1) Compute the amount of over-applied or under-applied overhead cost for the year.
2) Determine the cost of goods manufactured for the year.

Answers

Answer:

See Below

Explanation:

1.

= Actual manufacturing overhead cost - Budgeted total overhead

Actual manufacturing overhead cost = $48,000

Budgeted total overhead = $52,500

= $48,000 - $52,500

= $4,500

The above is under applied overhead since Budgeted overhead is more than the actual overhead expended.

Assume that you live in California and are on vacation, traveling by car from California to Texas. You are injured in a motel room when the bed on which you are sleeping collapses, causing you to fall to the floor. You suffer substantial back and leg injuries, requiring many medical treatments and causing you to miss work for 15 weeks. Your medical bills total $50,000 and your lost wages total $15,000. You intend to sue the owner of the Texas motel.

Required:
a. Can you bring your case in federal court? Why or why not?
b. Can you commence the case in California? What additional information might you need to answer this question?
c. At the end of the trial, the jury awards you $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages). After the trial, the attorney for the hotel approaches and offers to settle the case for $50,000. Should you consider accepting the settlement? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

a. No.  A state court will do a better job in this case because it exercises unlimited jurisdiction.  Moreover, you can only bring your case to a federal court if the amount of your claim is up to $75,000 or the issue is exclusive to the federal court.  This is not the case here.

b. Yes and No.  We need some additional information about the accident location to help answer this question definitively.

c. No. You should not consider accepting the offered settlement.  The jury award is meant to pay for your medical bills and also to help you recover financially as though the accident did not happen in the first place.  Accepting any lesser amount after the judgment is rendered is in bad taste.  The other party should have negotiated to settle out of court before the final judgment was rendered.  But it did not.  So, go with the jury award.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Missed work for 15 weeks

Total medical bills incurred = $50,000

Total lost wages incurred = $15,000

Jury award = $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages)

Settlement offer = $50,000

You have graduated from college but unfortunately have $39,000 in outstanding loans. The loans require payments of $3,435 per year, which covers interest and principal repayment (that is, the loan has the same basic features as a mortgage). If the interest rate is 4 percent, how long will it take you to repay the debt

Answers

Answer:

15.44 years

Explanation:

Using both excel rate function and financial calculator, the time taken to repay the debt can be computed thus:

Excel rate function:

=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)

rate= interest rate=4%

pmt=yearly payment=c

pv=loan oustanding=-39000

fv=the balance after all payments should be zero=0

=nper(4%,3435,-39000,0)= 15.44 years

Financial calculate

PMT= 3435

RATE=4

PV=-39000

FV=0

CPT N=15.44 years

This means a payment of $3,435 per year for 15 years  and $ 1,511.40  ($3,435*0.44) in the sixteenth year

A lot of kids look up to heroes because they save lives, they are wonderful role models, and they are great examples of good people. Some of the main heroes we see today are police officers, firefighters, doctors, and many more. I have made up my own hero. His name is Reyota and he gets his powers from the greek gods. He is very powerful and he can harness his powers from any humans, or objects. Reyota goes on a magical journey to defeat his evil spirits. He uses his powers to guide him through the way. His mother is being held captive and he is trying to save her. This makes him a hero because he goes on a journey to help someone in need that he truly cares about. One day a hero was born, Reyota. He was always making friends and cherished his mom so much. He was playing with his friend, Michael and they were playing in the backyard and Reyotas mom was bringing them lemonade since it was really hot outside. Kids I have some lemonade for you guys!, Reyotas Mom exclaimed. The kids ran from the treehouse to get their lemonade, thanks Mom! Reyota exclaimed. The children had loved the taste of the lemonade. Wow, your Mom makes fantastic lemonade, Michaeal said. Thanks! Ill tell her later., Reyota replied. They finished up the lemonade before they were about to head back to the treehouse. Then suddenly a black hole appeared out of thin air. Reyotas Mom had come outside to check on the children but she was pulled into the black hole by this transparent thing that had a weird, domestic face. She had been gone for over a week. Reyota kept thinking of ways to save her but nothing worked. He went outside to get his mail but then a huge cloud struck over him. BOOM!, The thunder roared. Reyota was sunken into the clouds. He saw a giant person standing there, watching him. He also saw a big city and the air smelled wonderful. Hello Reyota, Im Zeus, God of Thunder. I noticed that your mom was captured., Zeus said. Well yes, but what do you want with me?, Reyota asked. Your special and your mom was captured by your evil spirits., Zues said. I'm special? What do you mean by that?, Reyota asked. What I mean by that is, is that you were born with a special power. Didnt your mom tell you?, Zeus asked. No but thats really cool! But what are my powers exactly?, Reyota begged. Your powers are out of this world. You can fly and harness anyones powers around you., Zeus explained. So Zeus trained Reyota how to fight and how to use his powers so he could save his Mom. Reyota had grown to be older and he became best friends with Zeus. Reyotas mom had been stuck in the underworld by Reyotas evil spirits. He went on a quest to the underworld to rescue his mom. He was walking in a strange forest when he came across this hairy beast. Who are you and what are you doing here!, The beast demanded. Im looking for my mother, Reyota said. Oh The beast said. She was captured by my evil spirits. Reyota mentioned. The beast showed Reyota a magic mirror that reveals the future. Reyota saw his mom being tortured. He was astonished but he thanked the beast for showing him what they were doing to his mother. He left the forest and he was ready to find his mother.Reyota found himself being in an ice kingdom. There was a huge ice castle. He thought to himself, how will I pass through this monster, I can do this. I just have to use my powers wisely. He touched the ground full of ice and he felt all tingly inside but he felt stronger, He fought the beast and defeated him with ease. He went into the castle but he saw these blue creatures. The creatures were called the snow keepers. He asked them how to get through the underworld but they said he had to speak to the queen. He walked up to her and he saw her sitting in a tall, enormous, icy, throne. He bowed to her to show his respect. He asked her how to get to the underworld and she said, walk down to the third corridor and take two steps to the left and you should find a portal to the underworld, The Queen said. Thank you, Reyota replied. He followed her instructions and made it out of the castle. He entered it and his mom was screaming. He removed the chains that were tied around her neck. He rescued her and took her back to earth. Wow, thanks for rescuing me son. she said as they were flying in the air. I missed you so much mom he said. I missed you too, she replied. Reyota flew back into the clouds after he kissed his mom goodbye. This was truly his new life. Reyota was brave. He saved his mom and his plan went through its course. This makes him a hero because he goes on a journey to help someone in need that he truly cares about. Reyotas real journey had just begun.
