Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The combined wage bracket tables in Exhibits 9-3 and 9-4 is missing hence I will use 2014 tax year

answer :

a) Federal income tax withheld

 = 75.6 + ( 1989.60 - 944 )*15%  = $232.44

b) social security

 6% * 1989.6 = $119.38

c) Medicare

1.45% * 1989.6 = $28.85

Explanation:

For a single individual

Two withholding allowance = $329.20 * 2  = $658.40

Gross Pay = $2648

withholding allowance = $658.40

Subject to withholding = $2648 - $658.40 = $1989.60

a) Federal income tax withheld

 = 75.6 + ( 1989.60 - 944 )*15%  = $232.44

b) social security

 6% * 1989.6 = $119.38

c) Medicare

1.45% * 1989.6 = $28.85

Answer:

Waterway Corp.

a. straight line $__29,700___:

b. Units-of-output $__37,875___:

c. Working Hours $___31,482___:

d. Sum-of-the-years-digits $____48,600_____:

e. Declining balance (use 20% as the annual rate) = $54,704

Explanation:

Cost of machinery purchased on May 1, 2020 = $315,600

Estimated useful life = 10 years

Salvage value = $18,600

Depreciable amount = $297,000

Production units = 237,600

Working hours = 25,000

Straight-line method:

Annual Depreciation Expense = $29,700 ($297,000/10)

Production units:

Depreciation per unit = $1.25 ($297,000/237,600)

Working hours:

Depreciation per hour = $11.88 ($297,000/25,000)

Sum-of-the-years-digits = 55 years;

Depreciation per year = $5,400 ($297,000/55)

Declining balance rate = 20% (100/10 * 2)

During 2021:

Straight-line:

Depreciation expense = $29,700

Machine hours used = 2,650

Depreciation expense = 2,650 * $11.88

= $31,482

Production units = 30,300

Depreciation expense = 30,300 * $1.25

= $37,875

Sum-of-the-years-digits:

Depreciation expense = 9 * $5,400 = $48,600

Declining balance:

2020 = $315,600 * 20%  * 8/12 = $63,120 * 8/12 = $42,080

2021 balance = $273,520

2021 Depreciation expense = $273,520 * 20% = $54,704

Assume a division of Hewlett-Packard currently makes 12,000 circuit boards per year used in producing diagnostic electronic instruments at a cost of $34 per board, consisting of variable costs per unit of $24 and fixed costs per unit of $10.
Further assume Sanmina-SCI offers to sell Hewlett-Packard the 12,000 circuit boards for $34 each.
If Hewlett-Packard accepts this offer, the facilities currently used to make the boards could be rented to one of Hewlett-Packard's suppliers for $46,000 per year.
In addition, $6 per unit of the fixed overhead applied to the circuit boards would be totally eliminated.
Calculate the net benefit (cost) to HP of outsourcing the component from Samina-SCI.
(Use a negative sign with your answer, if appropriate.)

Answers

Answer:

The net benefit is -$26,000

Explanation:

Given the above information,

The total cost of manufacturing 12,000 circuit boards

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Total purchase price

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Fixed overhead cost applied

= 12,000 × $6

= $72,000

The rental income = $46,000

Outsourcing cost

= Total purchase price + Fixed overhead cost applied - Rental income

= $408,000 + $72,000 - $46,000

= $434,000

Therefore, Net benefit

= Total cost of manufacturing - Outsourcing cost

=$408,000 - $434,000

= -$26,000

On January 1, 2019, Sunland Company purchased the following two machines for use in its production process.
Machine A: The cash price of this machine was $50,000. Related expenditures included: sales tax $3,700, shipping costs $100, insurance during shipping $60, installation and testing costs $70, and $100 of oil and lubricants to be used with the machinery during its first year of operations. Sunland estimates that the useful life of the machine is 5 years with a $5,050 salvage value remaining at the end of that time period. Assume that the straight-line method of depreciation is used.
Machine B: The recorded cost of this machine was $180,000. Sunland estimates that the useful life of the machine is 4 years with a $20,880 salvage value remaining at the end of that time period.

Answer:

1. Purchase of Machine A (Dr.) $54,030

2. Depreciation Machine A (Dr.) $9,796

Accumulated depreciation (Cr.) $9,796

3. Depreciation Machine B (Dr.) $39,780

Accumulated depreciation (Cr.) $39,780

Explanation:

Machine A :

Cash price $50,000

Sales Tax $3,700

Shipping cost $100

Insurance $60

Installation and Testing $70

Oil and lubricants $100

Total cost of machine = $54,030

Depreciation = ( Cost - Salvage Value ) / Useful Life

Depreciation = ( $54,030 - 5,050 ) / 5 years = $9,796

Machine B :

Depreciation = ( 180,000 - 20,880 ) / 4 = $39,780

What is a raw material?

A raw material, which is also referred to as a feedstock, an unprocessed material, or a primary commodity, is a kind of fundamental resource that is used to make other materials, such as intermediate materials that will be used as feedstock for finished items in the future.

Materials or substances used in the initial stages of producing or manufacturing items are known as raw materials. On commodity exchanges around the world, raw materials are commodities that are purchased and sold. Because raw materials are production factors, businesses trade them on the factor market.

Therefore, raw materials are directly used in any manufacturing process.

Ingraham Inc. currently has $820,000 in accounts receivable, and its days sales outstanding (DSO) is 54 days. It wants to reduce its DSO to 35 days by pressuring more of its customers to pay their bills on time. If this policy is adopted, the company's average sales will fall by 15%. What will be the level of accounts receivable following the change? Assume a 365-day year.

Answers

Answer: 451759.29

Explanation:

To solve the question, we need to calculate the current sales. This will be calculated by using the formula:

DSO = (Account receivable × 365) / Sales

54 = 820000 × 365 / Sales

Sales = 820000 × 365 / 54

Sales = 5542593

After the new policy, the expected sales will be:

= 5542593 × (1 - 15%)

= 5542593 × (1 - 0.15)

= 5542593 × 0.85

= 4711204.5

The level of accounts receivable following the change will be:

DSO = (Account receivable × 365) / Sales

35 = Account receivable × 365 / 4711204.5

Account receivable = 35 × 4711204.5 / 365

Account receivable = 451759.29

The Duerr Company manufactures a single product. All raw materials used are traceable to specific units of product. Current information for the Duerr Company follows:

Beginning work in process inventory 39,000
Ending work in process inventory 49,000
Direct labor 129,000
Total factory overhead 104,000
Beginning finished goods inventory 79,000
Ending finished goods inventory 59,000

The company's cost of raw materials used, cost of goods manufactured and cost of goods sold is:________

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the direct material used:

Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory

Direct material used= 27,000 + 104,000 - 30,000

Direct material used= $101,000

Now, the cost of goods manufactured:

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

cost of goods manufactured=  39,000 + 101,000 + 129,000 + 104,000 - 49,000

cost of goods manufactured= $324,000

Finally, the cost of goods sold:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

COGS= 79,000 + 324,000 - 59,000

COGS= $344,000

Answers

Answer:

Annual Cash Dividends

a. = $347,645.10

b. = $145,450

c. = $317,200

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

1. $3.30 Cumulative Preferred Stock:

Authorized shares = 210,000

Issued shares =        146,000

Treasury shares =     40,653

Outstanding shares 105,347

Cash dividend = $347,645.10 ($3.30 * 105,347)

2. 5% Preferred Stock, $40 par value:

Authorized shares = 293,000

Issued shares =         165,000

Outstanding shares   72,725 * $40 = $2,909,000

Cash dividend = $145,450 ($2,909,000 * 5%)

3. 12.2% cumulative preferred, $100 stated value, $108 liquidating value:

Authorized shares =   81,000

Issued shares =         42,000

Outstanding shares  26,000 * $100 = $2,600,000

Cash dividend = $317,200 ($2,600,000 * 12.2%)

Inflation causes menu costs.

In some countries with hyperinflation, prices are posted in terms of U.S. dollars rather than the local currency, even though the local currency is still used to purchase the good.

Explanation:

The inflation that cause menu cost and the hyperinflation would be treated as a unit of account because for menu cost, the seller have to change the cost because of changing in the price

On the other hand, because of the difference in the currencies, inflation would create a problem for measuring the currency units

And, the left one would be represent the store of value as the value of the money would be decrease when the inflation rate is increased

Carol and Dave each purchase 100 shares of stock of Burgundy, Inc., a publicly owned corporation, in July for $10,000 each. Carol sells her stock on December 31 for $8,000. Because Burgundy’s stock is listed on a national exchange, Dave can ascertain that his shares are worth $8,000 on December 31. Does the Federal income tax law treat the decline in value of the stock differently for Carol and Dave? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

From the above information, we can deduce that the stock owned by Carol and Dave falls in value by $2,000 I.e ($10,000 - $8,000) ; it is to be noted that Carol solely has realised and recognized loss of $2,000.

Here, one of the cogent factors that determines whether a sale has taken place is if realization has been effected. Here, stock sold by Carol qualifies as a disposition while the decline in the value of stock sold by Dave does not qualify as disposition.

With regards to the foregoing, we can conclude that the federal income tax law treat the decline in the value of the stock differently for Carol and Dave.

Lauer Corporation uses the periodic inventory system and has provided the following information about one of its laptop computers: Date Transaction Number of Units Cost per Unit 1/1 Beginning Inventory 220 $ 920 5/5 Purchase 320 $ 1,020 8/10 Purchase 420 $ 1,120 10/15 Purchase 260 $ 1,170 During the year, Lauer sold 1,050 laptop computers. What was ending inventory using the FIFO cost flow assumption

Answers

Answer:

$198,900

Explanation:

Ending inventory units = Available units for sale - Units sold

Ending inventory units = 220 + 320 + 420 + 260

Ending inventory units = 1,220.

Units sold = 1,050.

Ending inventory units = 1,220 - 1,050

Ending inventory units = 170

As per the FIFO cost flow assumption, sales comprise of units from beginning inventory and earlier purchases. Hence, ending inventory comprises units from latest purchases.

So, ending inventory of 170 units would be valued at the price from 10/15 purchases.

10/15 purchase price per unit = $1,170

Ending inventory value = 170 units x $1,170

Ending inventory value = $198,900

Blues Inc. manufactures jeans in the cutting and sewing process. Jeans are manufactured in 40-jean batch sizes. The cutting time is 5 minutes per jean. The sewing time is 20 minutes per jean. It takes 2 minutes to move a batch of jeans from cutting to sewing. a. Compute the value-added, non-value-added, and total lead time of this process. Value-added lead time fill in the blank 1 minutes Non-value-added lead time fill in the blank 2 minutes Total lead time fill in the blank 3 minutes b. Compute the value-added ratio. Round to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

a. Value added time = Cutting time + Sewing time

Value added time = 5 minutes + 20 minutes

Value added time = 25 minutes

Non-value added time = Total within batch wait time + Move time

Non-value added time = [25 minutes * (40 - 1) + 2 minutes

Non-value added time = 977 minutes

Total lead time = Value added time + Non-value added time

Total lead time = 25 minutes + 977 minutes

Total lead time = 1,002 minutes

b. Value added ratio = Value added time / Total lead time

Value added ratio = 25 minutes / 1,002 minutes

Value added ratio = 0.02495

Value added ratio = 2.5%

art of the screening process when choosing which markets to expand to involves gathering information on local markets. One way to gain information is by participating in trade fairs and trade missions. However, companies will often need additional information on markets that require further research. Collecting primary data in foreign markets can present some challenges in researchers especially because of cultural and technical differences between the markets. Identify whether each statement about the research process is most likely associated with cultural differences between markets or technical differences. 1.

A NOW account requires a minimum balance of $750 for interest to be earned at an annual rate of 4 percent. An account holder has maintained an average balance of $500 for the first six months and $1,000 for the remaining six months. The account holder writes an average of 60 checks per month and pays $0.02 per check, although it costs the bank $0.05 to clear a check.

Required:
a. What average return does the account holder earn on the account?
b. What is the average return if the bank lowers the minimum balance to $400?
c. What is the average return if the bank pays interest only on the amount in excess of $400? Assume that the minimum required balance is $400.
d. How much should the bank increase its check fee to the account holder to ensure that the average interest it pays on this account is 5 percent? Assume that the minimum required balance is $750.

Answers

Answer:

a. Average return =  5.55%

b. Average return = 6.88%

c. Average return = 4.75%

d. Bank increase per check fees = $.0257

Explanation:

a.)

Interest earned on first $500 = $500×0×6 / 12 = $0

Interest earned on next $1000 = $1000×0.04×6 / 12=  $20

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12 =  $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $20 + $21.6 = $41.6

Given,

Average balance maintained  = $750

So,

Average return = $41.6 / $750 =  5.55%

b.)

Interest earned on first $500 = $500×0.04×6 / 12  = $10

Interest earned on next $1000 = $1000×0.04×6 / 12  = $20

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12  = $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $10 + $20 + $21.6 = $51.6

Given that,

Average balance maintained  = $750

So,

Average return = $51.6 / $750 = 6.88%

c.)

Interest earned on first $100 = $100×0.04×6 / 12 = $2

Interest earned on next $600 = $600×0.04×6 / 12 = $12

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12  = $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $2 + $12 + $21.6 = $35.6

Given that,

Average balance maintained = $750

So,

Average return = $35.6 / $750 = 4.75%

d.)

Total interest earned = $750×0.05 = $37.5

So,

fees earned on checks = $37.5 - $20 = $17.5

Subsidiary per check = $17.5 / 60×12 = $.0243

So,

Bank increase per check fees = $.05 – $.0243 = $.0257

Given the description of the firm below, decide whether it applies to monopolistic competition, perfect competition, or both.

a. a firm that produces with excess capacity in the long run
b. a firm that has market power
c. a firm that sets greater than marginal
d. a firm that earns zero economic profit in the long

Answers

Answer:

Perfect Competition

       d. a firm that earns zero economic profit in the long

In the long run, firms will keep entering and exiting the market in a perfect competition such that there will be no economic profit to be gained.

Monopolistic Competition

       a. a firm that produces with excess capacity in the long run

       b. a firm that has market power

       c. a firm that sets price greater than marginal cost.

Monopolistic competition has excess capacity in the long run because their prices are set at a higher level than the marginal revenue. They are therefore producing more goods than they are selling leading to excess capacity.

Monopolistic competition has some form of market power as well because they get to set their own prices.

Joyce works hard and puts in many extra hours. For this, she can anticipate a pay raise, a promotion, or an expanded sales territory. However, getting a promotion is most important to Joyce. According to the useful guidelines of the ____ theory, Jim, her manager, must recognize that (1) she is putting in hard work and long hours to obtain a promotion, (2) what motivates Joyce will change over time, and (3) he must clearly show Joyce how to attain the desirable reward.

Answers

Answer:

Expectancy theory

Explanation:

Expectancy theory states that when an individual is faced with different choices they will be motivated in a certain way in choosing a particular option based on what they expect to be the result of the choice.

So behaviour is affected by perceived result or consequence of a particular choice.

In the given scenario Joyce works hard and puts in many extra hours, and getting a promotion is most important to Joyce.

So because of her expectations that manager must recognise that:

(1) she is putting in hard work and long hours to obtain a promotion,

(2) what motivates Joyce will change over time (if she does not get the promotion), and

(3) he must clearly show Joyce how to attain the desirable reward.

Russell Retail Group begins the year with inventory of $50,000 and ends the year with inventory of $40,000. During the year, the company has four purchases for the following amounts.
Purchase on February 17 $ 205,000
Purchase on May 6 125,000
Purchase on September 8 155,000
Purchase on December 4 405,000
Required:
Calculate cost of goods sold for the year.

Answers

Answer:

COGS= $900,000

Explanation:

Giving the following formula:

Beginning inventory= $50,000

Ending inventory= $40,000

Purchase on February 17 $ 205,000

Purchase on May 6 125,000

Purchase on September 8 155,000

Purchase on December 4 405,000

Total= $890,000

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

COGS= 50,000 + 890,000 - 40,000

COGS= $900,000

Tex's Manufacturing Company can make 200 units of a necessary component part with the following costs: Direct Materials $240,000 Direct Labor 35,000 Variable Overhead 75,000 Fixed Overhead 40,000 If Tex's Manufacturing Company can purchase the component externally for $330,000 and only $15,000 of the fixed costs can be avoided, what is the correct make-or-buy decision

Answers

Answer:

Buy and save $35,000

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Particulars                                  Make                          Buy

Direct Materials                         $240,000

Direct Labor                               $35,000

Variable Overhead                     $75,000

Fixed Overhead                          $15,000

Purchase cost                                                          $330,000

Total cost                                      $365,000           $330,000

As we can see that the buying total cost is less than the total making cost so here we can buy the product as it saves the company by $35,000 ($365,000 - $330,000)

The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) reports that the HP Spectre laptop computer starts at $994.00 for a base configuration. The model displayed at its recent show costs $1,353, $118 more than the comparable 13-inch Apple MacBook Air. If Computers-R-Us buys the HP Spectre at the show with 3/15, net 30 terms on August 26, how much does it need to pay on September 9

Answers

Answer: $1312.41

Explanation:

The following information can be depicted from the question:

Cost of HP Spectre laptop = $1353

Credit terms = 3/15, net 30

Therefore, since discount allowed is 3%, the complement of the discount rate will be:

= 100% - 3%

= 97%

Therefore, amount needed to pay will be:

= Listed price × Complement of discounts rate

= $1353 × 97%

= $1353 × 0.97

= $1312.41

Therefore, the amount needed to pay is $1312.41

In 2020 Ryce contributes non depreciable property with an adjusted basis of $101,600 and a fair market value of $152,400 to the Montgomery Partnership in exchange for a one-half interest in profits and capital. In the next tax year, when the property's fair market value is $162,560, the partnership distributes the property to Jarvis, the other one-half partner. Jarvis's basis in the partnership interest was $162,560 immediately before the distribution. Which partner must recognize the built-in gain, what is the amount recognized, and what is the effect on that partner's basis in the partnership interest

Answers

Answer:

A. Ryce

B.$50,800

C. Increase

Explanation:

Based on the information given the partner that must recognize the built­in gain is RYCE

B. Calculation to determine the amount recognized

Using this formula

Amount recognized=Fair market value-Adjusted basis

Let plug in the formula

Amount recognized=$152,400-$101,600

Amount recognized=$50,800

Therefore the amount recognized is $50,800

C. Based on the information given the effect on that partner's basis in the partnership interest is that the basis amount in the partnership interest would be INCREASED by the amount of gain that was recognized or Realized.
