Answer:
The entry to recognize the exchange :
Land $318,000 (debit)
Common Stock $300,000 (credit)
Accounts Payable $300,000 (credit)
Explanation:
The Price of stock is equivalent to the issue price at the date of the transaction of $12.
Note that the Common Stocks do not have par value, this means there is no share premium reserve on the stocks that needs to be recognized.
Since the Price of land is above the price of common stocks, the remainder is the amount owing, a liability.

Kirkaid Company recorded the following transactions for the just completed month: a. $84,000 in raw materials were requisitioned for use in production. Of this amount, $72,000 was for direct materials and the remainder was for indirect materials. b. Total labor wages of $108,000 were incurred. Of this amount, $105,000 was for direct labor and the remainder was for indirect labor. c. Additional actual manufacturing overhead costs of $197,000 were incurred. d. A total of $218,000 in manufacturing overhead was applied to jobs.
Answer:
$6,000 underapplied
Explanation:
The computation of the amount overapplied or under applied is shown below:-
Amount applied = Applied manufacturing overhead - (Indirect materials + Indirect labor + other OH costs incurred )
= $218,000 - {($84,000 - $72,000) + ($108,000 - $105,000) + $197,000 }
= $218,000 $12,000 + $3,000 + $197,000
= $218,000 - $212,000
= $6,000
Therefore for computing the amount under applied we simply applied the above formula.
Machinery was purchased on January 1 for $51,000. The machinery has an estimated life of 7 years and an estimated salvage value of $9,000. Double-declining-balance depreciation for the second year would be (round calculations to the nearest dollar):
Answer:
$10,408
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense for the second year using the double-declining balance depreciation method is shown below:
First we have to determine the depreciation rate which is shown below:
= One ÷ useful life
= 1 ÷ 7
= 14.28%
Now the rate is double So, 28.57%
In year 1, the original cost is $51,000, so the depreciation is $14,571 after applying the 28.57% depreciation rate
And, in year 2, the ($51,000 - $14,571) × 28.57% = $10,408
A firm has a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.0. If it had no debt, its cost of equity would be 12 percent. Its cost of debt is 9 percent. What is its cost of equity if there are no taxes?
Answer:
15%
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of equity in case of no taxes is shown below:
Cost of equity without tax = Cost of equity + (cost of equity - cost of debt) × debt equity ratio
where,
Cost of equity = 12%
Cost fo debt = 9%
And, the debt equity ratio = 1
Now placing these values to the above formula,
So, the cost of equity without considering the tax is
= 0.12 + (0.12 - 0.09) × 1
= 0.12 + 0.03 × 1
= 0.12 + 0.03
= 0.15
= 15%
The management of Arnold Corporation is considering the purchase of a new machine costing $430,000. The company's desired rate of return is 10%. The present value factors for $1 at compound interest of 10% for 1 through 5 years are 0.909, 0.826, 0.751, 0.683, 0.621, respectively. In addition to this information, use the following data in determining the acceptability in this situation: Year Income from Operations Net Cash Flow 1 $100,000 $180,000 2 40,000 120,000 3 20,000 100,000 4 10,000 90,000 5 10,000 90,000 The net present value for this investment is a.negative $25,200. b.negative $124,800. c.positive $152,000. d.positive $25,200.
Answer:
d.positive $25,200.
Explanation:
The computation of net present value for this investment is shown below:-
Year Income From Net Cash Flow Present value
Operations
1 $100,000 180,000 163620
2 40,000 120,000 99120
3 20,000 100,000 75100
4 10,000 90,000 61470
5 10,000 90,000 55890
Total Cash inflow present value 455,200
Initial cash outflow $430,000
Net present value $25,200
As we can see that the total cash inflow i.e $455,200 is greater than the initial investment is $430,000 that reflects the positive net present value i.e difference of $25,200 so the project should be accepted

GW Corp. has two shareholders; Devana owns 40 shares and another corporation, Alpine, Inc., owns another 60 shares. Devana is also a 40% shareholder in Alpine, Inc. Under the attribution rules for the change in stock ownership tests in a redemption, how many shares of GW Corp. does Devana own
Answer:
40%
Explanation:
Devana owns 40% of GW Corp. despite having another 40% shares in Alpine Inc. This is as a result of Devana not having up to 50% shares in Alpine Inc.
Without up to 50% shares in Alpine Inc, the shares of Alpine Inc. in GW Corp. cannot be attributed to Devana.
This means that for Devana to own Alpine Inc shares in GW Corp. it has to acquire 10% more in addition to the 40% it already has.

From the question, we are informed that Wilson Corp. purchased its own par value stock on January 1, 2015 for $20,000 and debited the treasury stock account for the purchase price. The stock was subsequently sold for $12,000.
Therefore, the $8,000 difference between the cost and sales price should be recorded as a deduction from the additional from the paid-in capital to the extent that previous net "gains" from sales of the same class of stock are included therein otherwise, from the retained earnings.
Black Oil Company considered building a service station in a new location. The owners and their accountants decided that this was the profitable thing to do. However, soon after they made this decision, both the interest rate and the cost of building the station changed. In which case do these changes both make it less likely that they will now build the station?
A. Interest rates rise and the cost of building the station rises.
B. Interest rates rise and the cost of building the station fills.
C. Interest rates fall and the cost of building the station rises.
D. Interest rates fall and the cost of building the station falls.
Answer:
A. Interest rates rise and the cost of building the station rises.
Explanation:
An increase in interest rate means that the amount of money that will be paid back on a loan borrowed for a given period of time will increase. A risen interest rate discourages borrowing, and spending, as people do not want to pay a lot of money on loans collected. If interest rate increases, the company best postpone the project to a later time when interest rate falls. If the cost of building the new station increases, it means more capital than normal is now needed to build this service station, which will discourage investing in the project at that time period. So an increase in interest rate and cost of building the station, makes it less likely that the company builds the station in this time period.

Ashley is an attorney and also an excellent typist. She can type 120 words per minute, but she charges attorney fees at $100 per hour. Benjamin would like some typing work but can only type 60 words per minute. According to the law of comparative advantage, Ashley should hire Benjamin to do her typing if and only if his wage rate is less than:__________
Answer:
$50 / hr
Explanation:
The law of comparative advantage states that an entity should be able to produce its goods and services at a lower opportunity cost compared others in the same line of business so as to have an edge in the market.
Looking at the scenario ,if Ashley can type 120 words in a minute and also earn $100 / hr as an attorney , the opportunity cost of settling for the attorney work is the income earned through typing.
The law states that goods and services should be produced at a cost lower to the opportunity cost. To Ashley , the cost of hiring Benjamin should not be more than half of her hourly income as Benjamin production rate is half of hers.

At December 31, Gill Co. reported accounts receivable of $238,000 and an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $600 (credit) before any adjustments. An analysis of accounts receivable suggests that the allowance for uncollectible accounts should be 3% of accounts receivable. The amount of the adjustment for uncollectible accounts would be:
Answer: $7,740
Explanation:
Given, At December 31, Accounts receivable = $238,000
Allowance for uncollectible accounts = 3% of (accounts receivable)
∴ Allowance for uncollectible accounts = 3% of ($238,000 )
=$(0.03 ×238,000) [3% = 0.03]
= $ (7140)
= $7,140
Allowance for uncollectible accounts (credit) before any adjustments= $600
The amount of the adjustment for uncollectible accounts = Allowance for uncollectible accounts + $600
= $7,140 + $600
= $7,740
Hence, The amount of the adjustment for uncollectible accounts would be: $7,740.

Services can be______because the real people who provide them may vary in their abilities and motivations, or even their moods, resulting in differences in perceived quality.
Answer:
Inconsistent.
Explanation:
Services can be inconsistent because the real people who provide them may vary in their abilities and motivations, or even their moods, resulting in differences in perceived quality.
In Business and customer relationship management, the consistency of a service is solely dependent on the individual saddled with the responsibility of providing the service.
For instance, if Staff X isn't happy about something or is depressed, the staff is most likely to act lukewarm or annoying towards the service takers, therefore making the service inconsistent in comparison with other staffs and days.

Assume the Continental National Bank's balance statement is as shown in the accompanying table. Assuming a legal reserve ratio of 20 percent, how much in excess reserves would this bank have after a check for $10,000 was drawn and cleared against it?
a. $16,000.
b. $3,000.
c. $6,000.
d. $24,000.
Answer: c. $6,000.
Explanation:
Given: Checkable Deposits = $130,000
Amount Withdrawal = $10,000
Then, the new checkable deposit = (Checkable Deposits) - (Amount Withdrawal)
= $130,000-$10,000= $120,000
Reserves = 20% × (new checkable deposit)
=20% × $120,000 = $24,000
New reserve = (Reserve)-(Amount Withdrawal)
=$40,000 - $10,000 = $30,000
Excess Reserve = (New reserve) - (Reserves )
= $30,000 – $24,000 = $6,000
i.e. Excess reserve in bank is $6,000.
Hence, the correct answer is c. $6,000.

Answer:
The situation described in the question is referred to as the Prisoner's Dilemma.
Explanation:
The prisoner's dilemma is an example of a situation in Game Theory.
Game Theory is a subject which can be found under behavioural economics with strong roots in psychology. It is related to the science of decision making in by people and how those decisions affect others. In the simplest of cases, just as is given in the question, the dynamics is between two individuals.
According to the theory, sometimes an equilibrium is reached. This point refers to point in a game or a scenario where the decision by the two individuals is firmed up and as a result, the consequences of such determined.
If the decision by each player is such that it can no longer be changed by any of the players in order to improve their benefits accruable, such decisions are referred to as the Nash Equilibrium.
