A company uses the weighted-average method for inventory costing. At the end of the period, 19,000 units were in the ending Work in Process inventory and are 100% complete for materials and 68% complete for conversion. The equivalent costs per unit are materials, $2.58, and conversion $2.20. Compute the cost that would be assigned to the ending Work in Process inventory for the period.
Answer: $77,444
Explanation:
Given the following :
Ending work in process inventory = 19,000 units
Complete for materials = 100%
Complete for conversion = 68%
Equivalent cost per unit (material) = $2.58
Equivalent cost per unit (conversion) = $2.20
Cost of ending work in process inventory (materials) :
Cost per unit (material) * (ending work in process inventory) * complete for material
$2.58 * 19000 * 100% = $49,020
Cost of ending work in process inventory (conversion) :
Cost per unit (conversion) * (ending work in process inventory) * complete for conversion
$2.20 * 19000 * 68% = $49,020
$2.20 * 19000 * 0.68 = $28,424
Total cost (ending work in process inventory) :
Material cost + conversion cost
$49,020 + $28,424 = $77444
A company had the following treasury-stock related account balances: Treasury Stock - $150,000 Paid-in Capital from Treasury Stock Transactions - $15,000 If the company resells Treasury Stock that originally cost $50,000 for $40,000, then __________.
Answer: If the company resells Treasury Stock that originally cost $50,000 for $40,000, then paid-in capital from treasury stock transactions is reduced by $10,000.
Explanation:
Given: A company had the following treasury-stock related account balances: Treasury Stock - $150,000
Paid-in Capital from Treasury Stock Transactions - $15,000
If the company resells Treasury Stock that originally cost $50,000 for $40,000.
$40,000< $50,000 implies reduction in paid-in capital from treasury stock.
i.e. Reduced Paid-in Capital from Treasury Stock Transactions = $50,000- $40,000
= $10,000
So, if the company resells Treasury Stock that originally cost $50,000 for $40,000, then paid-in capital from treasury stock transactions is reduced by $10,000.

The need for increasing resources is an example of
Answer:
diminishing returns to specialization
Explanation:
The law of diminising returns states that with each additional unit of input used in the production process, there will be a point at which additional unit of input will result in less output. Marginal output starts to decrease.
In the given scenario it takes 10 units of resources to increase its output of sugar from 12 tons to 13 tons, but 11 units of resources to increase output from 13 tons to 14 tons, and 12 units of resources to increase output from 14 tons and 15 tons.
There is need of 10 units of input to increase one unit of output, then we need 11 units to do the same, and finally 12 units to increase output by 1.
This is an example of how input increase loses efficacy and it is an example of diminishing returns to specialization.
Thompson Company had $1,000 in office supplies at the beginning of the fiscal year. At the end of the fiscal year, Thompson Company did an inventory of the office supplies and determined that $300 of supplies remained in the supply room unused. What is the amount of Supplies Expense at the end of the fiscal year?
Answer: Amount of supplies expense = $700

Amount of supplies expense at the end of the fiscal year = Amount of used supplies
Amount of used supplies = (amount of supplies at beginning - amount of unused supplies)
Amount of used supplies = ($1000 - $300)
Amount of used supplies = $700
Therefore, amount of supplies expense = $700

Structural 3.2
Total unemployment 4.3
This economy is not currently at its natural rate of unemployment.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
1. Teresa is a physician who has decided to relocate to California to be closer to her family. She is currently interviewing with several prestigious hospitals in the San Francisco Bay Area. - Frictional
Frictional unemployment consists of the people who are in between jobs. Teresa is in between jobs because she moved to California, but she is expected to find new employment soon.
Automobile demand has fallen during a recent recession, and Beth has been laid off from her job on the assembly line. - Cyclical
Cyclical unemployment increases when the economy is in recession, and decreases when the economy is growing. In this case, Beth has been laid off because the market for automobiles is experiencing a downturn, thus, he is in cyclical unemployment.
Sam recently lost his job as a waiter at a local restaurant. A recent increase in the minimum wage keeps local employers from adding more of the low-skill positions for which he qualifies, so he has been unable to find work. - Structural
Structural unemployment occurs when a person's skills are mismatched with market demand. Sam's skills are not productive enough for him to be hired at the current minimum wage or above, therefore, he will have to acquire more skills in order to be hired again by another firm. He is in structural unemployment.
This economy is not currently at its natural rate of unemployment. - b. False
The natural rate of unemployment occurs when there is no cyclical unemployment, and there is only frictional and structural unemployment. In this case, the unemployment rate is 0.0, meaning that the economy is at its natural rate of unemployment.

Taylor s has a beta of .78 and a debt-to-equity ratio of .2. The market rate of return is 10.6 percent, the tax rate is 34 percent, and the risk-free rate is 1.4 percent. The pretax cost of debt is 6.1 percent. What is the firm's WACC
Answer: 7.82%
Explanation:
Given the following :
Beta (B) = 0.78
Debt to equity ratio = 0.2
Market rate of return (Rm) = 10.6% = 0.106
Tax rate (T) = 34% = 0.34
Risk free rate (Rf) = 1.4% = 0.014
Pretax cost of debt (Kd) = 6.1% = 0.061
WACC =
Cost of equity (Ke) = Rf + (Rm - Rf) * B
Ke = 0.014 + (0.106 - 0.014) * 0.78
Ke = 0.014 + (0.092)*0.78
Ke = 0.014 + 0.07176
Ke = 0.08576
Equity (E) = 1
Debt (D) = 0.2
Total volume of company's finance (V) = 1+0.2 = 1.2
WACC = (E/V)*Ke + (D/V)*(1 - T)*Kd
WACC = [(1/1.2)*0.08576] + [(0.2/1.2)*(1 -0.34)*0.061
WACC = [0.0714666 + 0.00671]
WACC = 0.0781766 = 0.0782 = 7.82%

Suppose that foreigners had reduced confidence in U.S. financial institutions and believed that privately issued U.S. bonds were more likely to be defaulted on. U.S. net exports would a. rise which by itself would increase aggregate demand. b. rise which by itself would decrease aggregate demand. c. fall which by itself would decrease aggregate demand. d. fall which by itself would increase aggregate demand.
Answer:
Option C, fall which by itself would decrease aggregate demand, is the right answer.
Explanation:
Option C is correct because the reduction in the confidence level in U.S financial institutions will decrease the U.S net export. Moreover, if the foreigner feels insecure about the U.S bonds then this insecurity will induce them to demand less. Therefore, when the net export decreases the aggregate demand will also fall. Thus we can say option C is right.

What are the earnings per share at the break-even level of earnings before interest and taxes? Ignore taxes.
Answer:
$2.38
Explanation:
Number of shares purchased
= $40,000 / $34
= $1,176
EBIT / 6,000 = [EBIT - ($40,000 * 0.07)] / (6,000 - 1176)
EBIT / 6,000 = (EBIT - $2,800) / 4,824
4,824 EBIT = 6000 EBIT - $16,800,000
1,176 EBIT = $16,800,000
EBIT = $14,285.71
Earning per Shares at Break-even level of earning
= [EBIT - ($40,000 * 0.07)] / (6,000 - 1,176)
= ($14,285.71 - $2,800) / 4,824
= $11,485.71 / 4,824
= $2.38
