Answer:
Total allocated costs= $19
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate for each department:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Assembly= 390,000 / 390,000= $1 per machine hour
Finishing= 581,100 / 149,000= $3.9 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Assembly= 1*3.4= $3.4
Finishing= 3.9*4= $15.6
Total allocated costs= $19

Sugar Cane Company processes sugar beets into three products. During September, the joint costs of processing were $150,000. Production and sales value information for the month were as follows: Product Units Produced Sales Value at Splitoff Point Separable costs Sugar 6,000 $40,000 $12,000 Sugar Syrup 4,000 35,000 32,000 Fructose Syrup 2,000 25,000 16,000 Required: Determine the amount of joint cost allocated to each product if the sales value at splitoff method is used.
Answer:
The description as per the given question is described below.
Explanation:
The given value is:
Joint costs of processing,
= $150,000
According to the question,
The ratio of sale value will be:
= [tex]40,000:35,000:25,000[/tex]
= [tex]8:7:5[/tex]
On adding we get,
= [tex]8+7+5[/tex]
= [tex]20[/tex]
hence,
The amount of joint cost allocated to each product will be:
Sugar,
= [tex]150000\times \frac{8}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]60,000[/tex] ($)
Sugar syrup,
= [tex]150000\times \frac{7}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]52,500[/tex] ($)
Fructose syrup,
= [tex]150000\times \frac{5}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]37,500[/tex] ($)
The joint cost of sugar, sugar syrup, and fructose syrup is $60,000, $52,500, and $37,500 respectively.
What is the sales value at the split-off method?The process where joint costs are assigned to joint products based on the sales value of the products at the split-off point.
Given:
Joint costs of processing=$150,000
Product Units Sales ValueSplitoff Point Separablecosts
1. Sugar $6,000 $40,000 $12,000
2. Sugar Syrup $4,000 $35,000 $32,000
3. Fructose Syrup $2,000 $25,000 $16,000
The ratio of sale value=
=40,000 : 35,000 : 25,000
= 8 : 7 : 5
On adding we get,
= 8+7+5
= 20
The amount of joint cost allocated to each product on basis of the Sales Value of Split-off Point will be:
1. Sugar= 1,50,000 X 8/20
=$60,000
2. Sugar syrup,= 1,50,000 X 7/20
=$52,500
3. Fructose syrup= 1,50,000 X 5/20
=$37,500
Therefore, the joint cost for each product on sales value at a split-off method for sugar, sugar syrup, and fructose syrup is $60,000,$52,500, and - respectively.

Step 2
Date : August 31, 2017
Description : Journal Entry J
Debit : Overheads $160
Credit : Cost of Sales $160
Explanation:
For step 1
If expenses are incurred, Debit the expense and credit Cash if cash was paid or Credit Accounts Payable if there was no immediate cash payment.
Ensure all manufacturing costs incurred are accumulated in the appropriate Work in Process Account.
Remember to record the corresponding cost of sales journal following the sale of completed units.
For step 2
If Actual overheads > Applied overheads, we have overheads under-applied,
and if Applied overheads > Actual overheads, we have over-applied overheads
Hence determine amounts of Actual and Applied overheads first :
Actual overheads calculation :
Indirect materials $300
Indirect labor $400
Other overheads $1,300
Total $2,000
Applied overheads :
Applied overheads = $2,160
therefore,
Over-applied overheads = $2,160 - $2,000 = $160
The cost of sales is reduced by the amount of over-applied overheads

Raphael lives in Detroit and runs a business that sells boats. In an average year, he receives $793,000 from selling boats. Of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer a wholesale cost of $430,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totaling $301,000. He owns his showroom; if he chooses to rent it out, he will receive $15,000 in rent per year. Assume that the value of this showroom does not depreciate over the year. Also, if Raphael does not operate this boat business, he can work as a financial advisor, receive an annual salary of $50,000 with no additional monetary costs, and rent out his showroom at the $15,000 per year rate. No other costs are incurred in running this boat business.
Identify each of Manuel's costs in the following tab/e as either an implicit cost or an explicit cost of selling pianos.
a. The salary Manuel could earn if he worked as a financial advisor
b. The rental income Manuel could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom
c. The wholesale cost for the pianos that Manuel pays the manufacturer
d. The wages and utility bills that Manuel pays
Answer:
Implicit cost
The salary Manuel could earn if he worked as a financial advisor
b. The rental income Manuel could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom
explicit cost
c. The wholesale cost for the pianos that Manuel pays the manufacturer
d. The wages and utility bills that Manuel pays
Explanation:
Explicit cost includes the amount expended in running the business. They include rent , salary and cost of raw materials.
Implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.
Only explicit cost is considered when calculating accounting profit while both explicit and implicit costs are considered in calculating economic profit.
Accounting profit= total revenue - explicit cost
Economic profit = accounting profit - implicit cost
If Manuel did not sell pianos, he would be working as a financial advisor, this is his next best option. Thus the salary he would have earned as a financial advisor is his explicit cost
If he did not use the showroom, he could have rented it out. Renting it out is his next best option. Thus the income from renting the showroom is his explicit cost
The wholesale cost of the pianos, wages and utility bills are monies actually expended in the course of running the business. Thus they are explicit costs
Helen has a meeting with a venture capitalist for a Series A round at a $10 million valuation. She has proprietary patents for the latest advancements in facial recognition, a team of five Stanford grads, and seed money from Andreessen Horowitz and Union Square Ventures. She has two enterprise customers. The VC has her interest piqued but declines to invest at this stage. Why? Group of answer choices Helen needs to further build out her team Helen should be raising a Series B, not A Helen needs better venture capitalists funding her project Helen needs more customers
Answer: Helen needs more customers
Explanation:
Even though the VC has her interest piqued but declines to invest at this stage, the reason is because of the fact that she has two enterprise customers.
The venture capitalist will not invest when there isn't enough customers as the VC may think that it's not worth investing in and doesn't want to make a loss. Therefore, Helen needs more customers.

1. Prepare the following variance analyses for both chocolates and the total, based on the actual results and production levels at the end of the budget year. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
a. Direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total variance.
b. Direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total variance.
2. The variance analyses should be based on the amounts at volumes. The budget must flex with the volume changes. If the volume is different from the planned volume, as it was in this case, then the budget used for performance evaluation should reflect the change in direct materials and direct labor that will be required for the production. In this way, spending from volume changes can be separated from efficiency and price variances.

The Neal Company wants to estimate next year's return on equity (ROE) under different financial leverage ratios. Neal's total capital is $20 million, it currently uses only common equity, it has no future plans to use preferred stock in its capital structure, and its federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%. The CFO has estimated next year's EBIT for three possible states of the world: $5.5 million with a 0.2 probability, $2.6 million with a 0.5 probability, and $600,000 with a 0.3 probability.
Required:
Calculate Neal's expected ROE, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation.
Answer:
Neal's expected ROE = 4.62%
Neal's standard deviation = 2.46%
Neal's coefficient of variation = 0.53
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculations of Neal's Expected ROE and Deviation.
From the attached excel, we can have:
Neal's expected ROE = Total expected ROE = 0.0462, or 4.62%
Neal's standard deviation = (Total Deviation)^0.5 = 0.00060736^0.5 = 0.0246, or 2.46%
Neal's coefficient of variation = Neal's standard deviation / Neal's expected ROE = 2.46% / 4.62% = 0.53

Zintendo, Inc., produces and sells a single product, the Zintendo Stitch gaming console, whose selling price is $400.00 per gaming console and whose variable costs are $224.00 per gaming console. The company's fixed costs are $5,935,750 per year. The current sales volume for the year ended 12/31/2020 is 36,300 gaming consoles.
Required:
a. Prepare a contribution margin income statement for the year ended 12/31/2020 at the current sales volume.
b. Determine the break-even point for the year.
c. What is the company's margin of safety for the year?
Answer and Explanation:
a. The preparation of the contribution margin income statement is presented below
Sales (36,300 × $400) $14,520,000
Less: variable cost (36,300 × $224) $8,131,200
Contribution margin $6,388,800
Less: fixed cost - $5,935,750
net income $453,050
b. The break even point is
In units
= Fixed cost ÷ contribution margin per unit
= $5,935,750 ÷ ($400 - $224)
= 33,726 units
In dollars
= Fixed cost ÷ contribution margin ratio
= $5,935,750 ÷ ($176 ÷ $400)
= $13,490,341
c. The margin of safety
In units
= Total sales units - break even units
= 36,300 - 33,726
= 2,574 units
In dollars
= Total sales - break even sales

After reading the paragraph below, answer the question that follows. Americans spend up to $100 billion annually for bottled water (41 billion gallons). The only beverages with higher sales are carbonated soft drinks. Recent news stories have highlighted the fact that most bottled water comes from municipal water supplies (the same source as your tap water), although it may undergo an extra purification step called reverse osmosis. Imagine two tanks that are separated by a membrane that's permeable to water, but not to the dissolved minerals present in the water. Tank A contains tap water and tank B contains the purified water. Under normal conditions, the purified water would cross the membrane to dilute the more concentrated tap water solution. In the reverse osmosis process, pressure is applied to the tap water tank to force the water molecules across the membrane into the pure water tank. If you shut off the system and pressure was no longer applied to tank A, you would expect

A. On January 10, purchased merchandise on credit for $30,000. The company uses a perpetual inventory system.
B. On March 1, borrowed $64,000 cash from City Bank and signed a promissory note with a face amount of $64,000, due at the end of six months, accruing interest at an annual rate of 8.50 percent, payable at maturity.
Required:
1. For each of the transactions, indicate the accounts, amounts, and effects on the accounting equation.
2. What amount of cash is paid on the maturity date of the note?
3. Indicate the impact of each transaction (increase, decrease, and NE for no effect) on the debt-to-assets ratio, Assume Bryant Company had $300,000 in total liabilities and 500,000 in total assets, yielding a debt-to-assets ratio of 0.60, prior to each transaction.
Answer:
1. Finance charge = $2,720
2. Amount of cash paid = $66,720
3. Debt to Assets Ratio on January 10 is 0.62; and the impact is an increase from 0.60. Aiso, Debt to Assets Ratio on March 1 is 0.67; and the impact is an increase from 0.62.
Explanation:
1. For each of the transactions, indicate the accounts, amounts, and effects on the accounting equation.
Note: See part 1 of the attached excel file for the requirements of this question.
In the attached excel file, the amount of -$2,720 that appears under the Stockholder's Equity is the finance charge calculated as follows:
Finance charge = Amount borrowed * Interest rate * (Number of months to the promissory note due date / Number of months in a year) = $64,000 * 8.50% * (6 / 12) = $2,720
2. What amount of cash is paid on the maturity date of the note?
Note: See part 2 of the attached excel file for the calculation of the amount of cash is paid on the maturity date of the note.
From the attached excel file, we have:
Amount of cash paid = $66,720
3. Indicate the impact of each transaction (increase, decrease, and NE for no effect) on the debt-to-assets ratio, Assume Bryant Company had $300,000 in total liabilities and 500,000 in total assets, yielding a debt-to-assets ratio of 0.60, prior to each transaction.
Note: See part 3 of the attached excel file for the debt-to-assets ratios and the indication of impacts.
From the attached excel file, we have:
Debt to Assets Ratio on January 10 is 0.62; and the impact is an increase from 0.60.
Debt to Assets Ratio on March 1 is 0.67; and the impact is an increase from 0.62.
Here is a linear demand function: Q = 10 -0.5P. Find its price function by inverting the demand function. Then find its total revenue function by multiplying through by Q. The linear demand function Q = 400 -250P inverts into the price function P = 1.6 -0.004Q. Multiplying this by Q gives its total revenue function TR = 1.6Q -0.004. Evaluate the following expression.
Y = 5(2X + 3)2 -2X2
Answer:
[tex]P = 20 - 2Q[/tex]
Explanation:
[tex]Q = 10 - 0.5P[/tex]
Price function can be estimated by inverting the demand function.
[tex]Q = 10 - 0.5P \\\\0.5P = 10 - Q\\P = 10/0.5 - Q/0.5 \\P = 20 - 2Q[/tex]
This is the price function.
Total revenue function can be estimated using the given formula,
[tex]TR = P*Q \\ = (20 - 2Q) Q \\ = 20Q - 2Q^2[/tex]
The linear demand function is given by,
[tex]Q = 400 - 250P \\[/tex]
Price function is given by,
[tex]P = 1.6 - 0.004Q \\[/tex]
Total revenue function is thus given by,
[tex]TR = P*Q \\ = 1.6Q - 0.004Q^2[/tex]
[tex]Y = 5(2X+3)^2 - 2X^2 \\Y = 5(4X^2 + 9 + 12X) - 2X^2\\Y = 20X^2 + 45 + 60X - 2X^2\\Y = 18X^2 + 45 + 60X \\[/tex]
The derivative of Y with respect to x is,
[tex]dY/dX = 36X + 60\\[/tex]
Equating this equal to 0 we get,
[tex]36X + 60 = 0 \\36X = -60 \\X = -10/6 \\\\X= -1.66[/tex]

Explain three factors that had a negative impact on the financial performance of Unibic in its early years.
Hello. You forget to present the text to which this question refers. The text is:
In 2007, Lighthouse Funds acquired a 25% stake in Unibic from Unibic Australia for Rs. 200 million. In 2010, Unibic Australia started making losses and wanted to withdraw from the Indian market. At that time, Unibic operated solely in the premium, high-margin cookies segment in India, with a share of around 8%. It had a market presence primarily in south India and was exporting to the Middle East and Hong Kong. It had strategic alliances to make cookies for various private players. However, it was not yet making profits and was cashstrapped... Over the next few years, Unibic grew rapidly. Its growth was primarily fueled by the changes sweeping through the Indian biscuit industry, wherein glucose biscuits that had dominated the market, gradually lost out to cream biscuits and cookies. The reasons for the shift included rising disposable incomes leading to an increase in consumption of premium biscuits; a larger number of manufacturing facilities of premium biscuits; growing health awareness; innovation bringing in attractive new products; rising affordability of cookies; and increase in eye-catching packaging. Over the years, Unibic regularly introduced fresh and unique flavors, ultimately producing over 30 variants of cookies. Its products could be broadly categorized into chocolate, butter, milk, savory, and health. The company considered its target market to be between the ages of 14 and 40. It continued its efforts at innovation and produced new products which would appeal to its target market. In 2015, Unibic had used celebrity endorsement by signing on south Indian actor Shruti Hassan, for over a year.
It stated that it wanted someone who was relevant and would give the brand a boost to get to the numbers it wanted in the South...
Unibic didn’t advertise much in print media; TV remained the company’s core focus and got the largest chunk of its advertising spend, followed by digital and OOH. Instead of following the traditional strategy of having a similar marketing campaign across markets, Unibic employed a unique strategy in each market, thereby playing to its strengths in each market while keeping in mind the market conditions and consumption patterns...
From 2019 onward, Unibic started feeling the heat of the economic slowdown in India. The Indian economic slowdown of 2019 led to a serious and continuing decline in the country’s real estate, automobile and construction sectors and in overall consumption demand. The second quarter (July- September) of the financial year (April 2019-March 2020) witnessed a drastic fall in the gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate to 4.5%. The main reasons attributed to the fall in the GDP growth rate were – contraction in manufacturing activity, weakened investments, and lower consumption demand. As of 2020, Unibic had the largest wire cut cookie manufacturing plant in India. The plant had the capability to manufacture 100 tonnes of cookies each day, with five production lines. While it used 98% of its production capability to produce its own brand, the rest was used to manufacture for private label brands – six in India and 10 across the world. It had annual revenu7 es of Rs. 5 billion. It also exported its products to more than 21 countries including across Australia, North America, the UK, and Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and New Zealand. It derived 45% of its earnings from the south of India.
Answer and Explanation:
Unibic's main mistake was not to give importance to the fluctuation of demand for its products, in order to be able to adjust their prices to the demand rates that consumers presented. This is because as the demand for the product decreased, Unibic should decrease the price, allowing the product to remain attractive to consumers.
A second mistake was not following the standard of disclosure of other cookie makers. This is because if other companies that make cookies advertise their products in a specific place, it means that this place has a large number of cookie consumers, who will see the products and put them on their shopping lists.
A third mistake was the high expenditure on disclosure. Unibic decided to use the most expensive media vehicle to advertise a product, in addition to maintaining the contract with a celebrity, who should receive a high salary for his work. Unibic should have looked for cheaper vehicles, which would optimize its profit, but decrease spending.

Synovec Co. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 10.5 percent for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 5.4 percent thereafter. If the required return is 10.6 percent and the company just paid a dividend of $5.00, what is the current share price
Answer:
Current share price = $116.04
Explanation:
Note: See the attached file for the calculation of present values (PV) for year 1 to 3 dividends.
From the attached excel file, we have:
Previous year dividend in year 1 = Dividend just paid = $5
Total of dividends from year 1 to year 3 = $14.97289157241870
Year 3 dividend = $6.746163125
Therefore, we have:
Year 4 dividend = Year 3 dividend * (100% + Dividend growth rate in year 4) = $6.746163125 * (100% + 5.4%) = $7.11045593375
Share price at year 3 = Year 4 dividend / (Rate of return - Perpetual dividend growth rate) = $7.11045593375 / (10.6% - 5.4%) = $136.7395371875
PV of share price at year 3 = Price at year 3 / (100% + Required return)^Number of years = $136.7395371875 / (100% + 10.6%)^3 = $101.07150317234
Therefore, we have:
Current share price = Total of dividends from year 1 to year 3 + PV of share price at year 3 = $14.97289157241870 + $101.07150317234 = $116.04
A company's flexible budget for the range of 35,000 units to 45,000 units of production showed variable overhead costs of $3.80 per unit and fixed overhead costs of $74,000. The company incurred total overhead costs of $209,800 while operating at a volume of 40,000 units. The total controllable cost variance is:Multiple Choice$16,200 unfavorable.$10,000 favorable.$2,800 unfavorable.$2,800 favorable.$16,200 favorable.
Answer:
$16,200 favorable
Explanation:
The computation of the total controllable cost variance is shown below:
= Budgeted overhead - actual overhead
= (40,000 units × $3.80 + $74,000) - $209,800
= ($152,000 + $74,000) - $209,800
= $226,000 - $209,800
= $16,200 favorable
Hence, the total controllable cost variance is $16,200 favorable
In wintry conditions, highway safety is improved by treating road services with substances that will provide traction and/or melt snow and ice. Sand and rock salt are two widely used substances. Recently, a combination of beet juice and rocksalt is being used in some parts of the country to treat road surfaces. Suppose you have been asked to provide a list of factors to consider for a switch from rocksalt alone to using a combination of beet juice and rocksalt. Name the major considerations you would take into account in making a decision in the following categories: cost considerations, environmental considerations, both positive and negative, and other considerations.
Answer:
There will be cost consideration, economic consideration, environmental consideration, human factors and social factors.
Explanation:
There should be most important consideration which the highway authorities should analyze is cost. The authorities should identify the additional cost which will need to be incurred in order to use the combination of beet juice and rock salt. There should be reliability considered that the road are not affected with the use of beet juice and there is no breakage on the roads. The environment is not affected with the use of these material.
