Sweet Corporation purchased 360 shares of Sherman Inc. common stock for $11,900 (Sweet does not have significant influence). During the year, Sherman paid a cash dividend of $3.25 per share. At year-end, Sherman stock was selling for $37.50 per share. Prepare Sweet's journal entries to record (a) the purchase of the investment, (b) the dividends received, and (c) the fair value adjustment. (Assume a zero balance in the Fair Value Adjustment account.)
Answer:
(a) Debit Equity Investments for $11,900; and Credit Cash for $11,900.
(b) Debit Cash for $1,170; and Credit Dividend Revenue for $1,170.
(c) Debit Fair Value Adjustment for $1,600; and Unrealized Holding Gain or Loss - Income for $1,600.
Explanation:
(a) Journal entries to record the purchase of the investment
The journal entries will look as follows:
Accounts Title and Description Debit ($) Credit ($)
Equity Investments 11,900
Cash 11,900
(To record the purchase of the investment.)
(b) Journal entries to record the dividends received
The journal entries will look as follows:
Accounts Title and Description Debit ($) Credit ($)
Cash (w.1) 1,170
Dividend Revenue 1,170
(To record the dividends received.)
(c) Journal entries to record the fair value adjustment. (Assume a zero balance in the Fair Value Adjustment account.
The journal entries will look as follows:
Accounts Title and Description Debit ($) Credit ($)
Fair Value Adjustment (w.2) 1,600
Unrealized Holding Gain or Loss - Income 1,600
(To record the fair value adjustment.)
Workings:
w.1: Cash = Dividend received = Number of shares * Cash dividend per share = 360 * $3.25 = $1,170
w.2: Fair Value Adjustment = Fair value - Common stock purchase cost = (Number of shares * Selling price per share) - Common stock purchase cost = (360 * $37.50) - $11,900 = $1,600

Independent of your answer to requirement (1), assume the company plans to produce 620,000 units of finished product in the three-month period ending September 30, and to have raw-material inventory on hand at the end of the three-month period equal to 25 percent of the use in that period. Compute the total estimated cost of raw-material purchases for the entire three-month period ending September 30
Answer:
Purchases= 1,595,000 pounds
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 620,000 units
Beginning raw materials inventory= 730,000 pounds
Desired ending inventory= 25% of the three months requirement.
Each unit requires 3 pounds of raw material.
To calculate the purchases required, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= (620,000*3) + (620,000*3)*0.25 - 730,000
Purchases= 1,595,000 pounds

Explanation:
Marlin Corporation reported pretax book income of $1,005,000. During the current year, the net reserve for warranties increased by $26,000. In addition, book depreciation exceeded tax depreciation by $100,500. Finally, Marlin subtracted a dividends received deduction of $15,500 in computing its current year taxable income. Marlin's current income tax expense or benefit would be:
Answer: $234360
Explanation:
Marlin's current income tax expense or benefit would be calculated thus:
Pre-tax book income = $1,005,000
Add: net reserve for warranties = $26,000
Add: Increase in Book depreciation over tax depreciation = $100,500.
Less: Dividend deduction = ($15500)
Taxable income = $1,116,000
Since tax rate = 21%, then the income expense will be:
= 21% × $1,116,000
= 0.21 × $1,116,000
= $234360

Angela, Inc., holds a 90 percent interest in Corby Company. During 2020, Corby sold inventory costing $84,750 to Angela for $113,000. Of this inventory, $56,400 worth was not sold to outsiders until 2021. During 2021, Corby sold inventory costing $79,300 to Angela for $122,000. A total of $53,800 of this inventory was not sold to outsiders until 2022. In 2021, Angela reported separate net income of $239,000 while Corby's net income was $121,000 after excess amortizations. What is the noncontrolling interest in the 2021 income of the subsidiary
Answer:
$ 11,627
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the noncontrolling interest in the 2021 income of the subsidiary
First step is to calculate the Unrealized intra-entity gross profit, 12/31/20
UNREALIZED GROSS PROFIT, 12/31/20
Ending inventory $56,400
Gross profit rate ($28,250 ÷ $113,000) 25%
($113,000-$84,750 =$28,250)
Unrealized intra-entity gross profit, 12/31/20 $14,100
(25%*$56,400=$14,100)
Second step is to calculate Unrealized intra-entity gross profit, 12/31/21
UNREALIZED GROSS PROFIT, 12/31/21
Ending inventory $53,800
Gross profit rate ($42,700 ÷ $122,000) 35%
($122,000-$79,300=$42,700)
Unrealized intra-entity gross profit, 12/31/21 $18,830
(35%*$53,800=18,830)
Now let calculate Noncontrolling interest
NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO NONCONTROLLING INTEREST
Reported net income for 2021 $121,000
Add Realized gross profit deferred in 2014 $14,100
Less Deferral of 2021 unrealized gross profit (18,830)
Realized net income of subsidiary $116,270
Outside ownership 10%
(100%-90%)
Noncontrolling interest $ 11,627
(10%*$116,270)
Therefore the noncontrolling interest in the 2021 income of the subsidiary will be $ 11,627

Lupo Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on the following data: Total machine-hours 32,300 Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost$581,400 Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour$2.00 Recently, Job T687 was completed with the following characteristics: Number of units in the job 10 Total machine-hours 40 Direct materials$630 Direct labor cost$1,260 If the company marks up its unit product costs by 40% then the selling price for a unit in Job T687 is closest to
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Given the above information, first we will calculate the overhead rate
Overhead rate = Cost of manufacturing overhead / Cost driver
= $581,400 / 32,300
= $18
Then,
Predetermined overhead rate = $18 fixed + $2 variable = $20
Now, we will apply this to job machine hours
Job machine hours 40
Overhead: Machine hours x
Predetermined rate = 40 × $20 = $80
Total cost = $630 + $1,260 + $880 = $2,770
The unit cost would be
= Total cost / Units
= $2,770 / 10
= $277
The selling price would therefore be;
Selling price : 40% over product cost
Selling price = Cost + 40% cost
Selling price = $227 + 40%($227)
Selling price = $227 + $90.8
Selling price = $317.8
Given the following information, calculate the current value of the stock: current dividend is $3.00, projected super normal growth for three years at 20%, growth rate after year 3 should remain constant at 11% and you want to earn a 16% annual return. What should you pay for the stock?
A.$67.55
B.$83.34
C.$74.39
D.$61.46
Answer:
B. $83.34
Explanation:
Current Dividend (D0) = $3.00
Super Normal growth for next three years (g1) = 20% = 0.20
Growth Rate after three year (g2) = 11% = 0.11
Required rate of Return (r) = 16% or 0.16
P3 = D4/(r-g2) = D0*(1+g1)^3*(1+g2)/(r-g2)
P3 = $3.00*(1+0.20)^3*(1+0.11)/(0.16-0.11)
P3 = $115.0848
Value of Share (P0) = [D1/(1+r)] + [D2/(1+r)^2] + [D3/(1+r)^3] + [P3/(1+r)^3]
Value of Share (P0) = [D0*(1+g1)/(1+r)1] + [D0*(1+g1)^2/(1+r)^2] + [D0*(1+g1)^3/(1+r)^3] + [P3/(1+r)^3]
Value of Share (P0) = [$3.00*(1+0.20)/(1+0.16)^1] + [$3.00*(1+0.20)^2/(1+0.16)^2] + [$3.00*(1+0.20)^3/(1+0.16)^3] + [$115.0848/(1+0.16)^3]
Value of Share (P0) = $3.10 + $3.21 + $ 3.32 + $73.72
Value of Share (P0) = $83.34

Consider an asset that generates $3,000 in 5 years and $5,000 in 1 year; discount rate - 6% (These are uneven cash flows- there is no pattern).
2. Consider an asset that pays $500 per year for 8 years (This is an annuity- it is the same cash flow, evenly spaced, for a finite time (it has an end)).
3. Consider an asset that pays $50 per year starting at the end of year 3 (This is a delayed perpetuity- it is the same cash flow evenly spaced forever, but does not begin until a future date).
Answer:
1. Since the last cash flow occurs at year 5, the timeline ends at 5th year.
2. Since the same cash flow for a finite time of 8 years, the timeline ends at 8th year.
3. The 3 dots at the end of the timeline indicates a perpetuity.
Explanation:
A timeline refers to a line that shows the timing and amount of cash flows. Therefore, we have:
1. Consider an asset that generates $3,000 in 5 years and $5,000 in 1 year; discount rate - 6% (These are uneven cash flows- there is no pattern).
Note: See number 1 in the attached photo for the timeline.
The fact that the last cash flow occurs at year 5 makes the timeline to end at 5th year.
It can also be seen in the timeline that the 6% discount rate is shown in between the previous period and the next.
2. Consider an asset that pays $500 per year for 8 years (This is an annuity- it is the same cash flow, evenly spaced, for a finite time (it has an end)).
Note: See number 2 in the attached photo for the timeline.
The fact that the same cash flow for a finite time of 8 years makes the timeline to end at 8th year.
3. Consider an asset that pays $50 per year starting at the end of year 3 (This is a delayed perpetuity- it is the same cash flow evenly spaced forever, but does not begin until a future date).
Note: See number 3 in the attached photo for the timeline.
It should be noted the 3 dots at the end of the time line indicates a perpetuity.

Assume the cost of design for the project is 7% of construction, and a site-work cost of $180,000. What range or percentage of this cost would you recommend to define the level of accuracy
Answer: $2197570
Explanation:
The cost estimate is prepared below:
Base cost = $101.15 × 18525 = $1873804
Add: Site work cost = $180000
Total = $1,873,804 + $180,000 = $2053804
Add: Design fees = 7% × $2053804 = 0.07 × $2053804 = $143766
Estimated cost = $2053804 + $143766 = $2197570
The range or percentage of this cost will be +50%.

Answer:
Data Mining
Explanation:
A database management system (DBMS) can be defined as a collection of software applications that typically enables computer users to create, store, modify, retrieve and manage data or informations in a database. Generally, it allows computer users to efficiently retrieve and manage their data with an appropriate level of security.
A data dictionary can be defined as a centralized collection of information on a specific data such as attributes, names, fields and definitions that are being used in a computer database system.
In a data dictionary, data elements are combined into records, which are meaningful combinations of data elements that are included in data flows or retained in data stores.
This ultimately implies that, a data dictionary found in a computer database system typically contains the records about all the data elements (objects) such as data relationships with other elements, ownership, type, size, primary keys etc. This records are stored and communicated to other data when required or needed.
A process in which computer software that uses statistical analysis, database technology, and artificial intelligence finds hidden patterns, trends, and connections in data so that business owners can make better marketing decisions and predictions about customers' behavior is known as data mining. It plays a significant role in the growth and development of a business and its products or services.
Jones Furniture Company produces beds and desks for college students. The production process requires carpentry and varnishing. Each bed requires 6 hours of carpentry and 4 hour of varnishing. Each desk requires 4 hours of carpentry and 8 hours of varnishing. There are 36 hours of carpentry time and 40 hours of varnishing time available. Beds generate $30 of profit and desks generate $40 of profit. Demand for desks is limited, so at most 8 will be produced.a. Formulate the LP model for this problem. b. Solve the problem using the graphical method.
Explanation:
To formulate the LP model for this problem,
Let,
X1 = Number of beds to produce
X2 = Number of Desks to produce
Our objective function:
Max: 30X1 + 40X2
Constraints:
6X1 + 4X2 ≤ 36 available carpentry hours 4X1 + 8X2 ≤ 40 available vanishing hoursX2 ≤ 8 (demand for X2)X1, X2 ≥0Based on the constraints information as well as the objective function you can then solve using the graphical method.

Kingston anticipates total sales for June and July of $370,000 and $318,000, respectively. Cash sales are normally 60% of total sales. Of the credit sales, 25% are collected in the same month as the sale, 60% are collected during the first month after the sale, and the remaining 15% are collected in the second month after the sale. Determine the amount of accounts receivable reported on the company’s budgeted balance sheet as of July 31.
Answer:
$117,600
Explanation:
Given that the company has Cash sales that are normally 60% of total sales and Of the credit sales, 25% are collected in the same month as the sale, 60% are collected during the first month after the sale, and the remaining 15% are collected in the second month after the sale
In June, total sales $370,000
Amount that would not have been collected from this sale at the end of July
= 40% * 15% * $370,000
= $22,200
In July, total sales is $318,000,
Amount that would not have been collected from this sale at the end of July
= 40% *75% * $318,000
= $95,400
Hence the amount of accounts receivable reported on the company’s budgeted balance sheet as of July 31
= $22,200 + $95,400
= $117,600
