Answer:
$20,085,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the total cash received on the issue date
Total Cash received =($20,600,000 × .96) +[($20,600,000*9%)*2/12]
Total Cash received=($20,600,000 × .96)
+($1,854,000*2/12)
Total Cash received=$19,776,000+$309,000
Total Cash received=$20,085,000
Therefore the total cash received on the issue date will be $20,085,000
Kartman Corporation makes a product with the following standard costs: Standard Quantity or HoursStandard Price or RateStandard Cost Per Unit Direct materials 6.5pounds$7.00per pound$45.50 Direct labor 0.6hours$24.00per hour$14.40 Variable overhead 0.6hours$4.00per hour$2.40 In June the company's budgeted production was 3,400 units but the actual production was 3,500 units. The company used 22,150 pounds of the direct material and 2,290 direct labor-hours to produce this output. During the month, the company purchased 25,400 pounds of the direct material at a cost of $170,180. The actual direct labor cost was $57,021 and the actual variable overhead cost was $8,931. The company applies variable overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The direct materials purchases variance is computed when the materials are purchased. The variable overhead rate variance for June is: Select one: A. $210 F B. $229 U C. $210 U D. $229 F
Answer:
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= $229 favorable
Explanation:
eGiving the following information:
Variable overhead 0.6 hours $4.00per hour
The company used 2,290 direct labor-hours
The actual variable overhead cost was $8,931.
To calculate the variable overhead rate variance, we need to use the following formula:
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= (standard rate - actual rate)* actual quantity
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= (4 - 3.9)*2,290
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= $229 favorable
Actual rate= 8,931 / 2,290= $3.9
On January 1, 2018, Ann Stine loaned $37,565 to Joe Grant. A zero-interest-bearing note (face amount, $50,000) was exchanged solely for cash. The note is to be repaid on December 31, 2020. The prevailing rate of interest for a loan of this type is 10%. The present value of $50,000 at 10% for three years is $37,565. What amount of the Discounts on Notes Payable should Mr. Grant credit in 2018?
Answer: $3,756.50
Explanation:
The Discount on Note Payable is used to record the interest charge on a note that is already included in the maturity value of the note. It is based on the present value of the loan and the prevailing interest rate.
= Present value of the loan for three years * Prevailing interest rate
= 37,565 * 10%
= $3,756.50
Ringmeup Inc. had net income of $129,300 for the year ended December 31, 2019. At the beginning of the year, 37,000 shares of common stock were outstanding. On May 1, an additional 15,000 shares were issued. On December 1, the company purchased 4,100 shares of its own common stock and held them as treasury stock until the end of the year. No other changes in common shares outstanding occurred during the year. During the year, Ringmeup paid the annual dividend on the 6,000 shares of 4.95%, $100 par value preferred stock that were outstanding the entire year. Required: Calculate basic earnings per share of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2019. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
$2.13 per share
Explanation:
The computation of the basic earnings per share is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
The Weighted average share is
= (37000 shares × 4 ÷ 12 + (37,000 + 15,000) shares × 7 ÷ 12 + (52,000 - 4,100) shares × 1 ÷ 12)
= 46,658 Shares
And, the Preferred dividend is
= 6,000 shares × $100 × 4.95%
= $29,700
Now EPS is
= (Net income - Preferred dividend) ÷ Weighted average share outstanding = ($129,300 - $29,700) ÷ 46,658
= $2.13 per share
Western Energy makes quarterly deposits into an account reserved for purchasing new equipment two years from now. The interest paid on the deposits is 12% per year, compounded monthly. Identify the interest period, compounding period, and compounding frequency in the interest period.
a. The interest period is ____________.
b. The compounding period is _______________ .
c. The compounding frequency is___________ .
Answer:
a. 2 years
b. 1 year
c. 12 times
Explanation:
Interest period is the duration of the deposit. It is the length of time the money would remain in deposit. This is 2 years according to the question
Compounding period = number of times interest would be paid. In the question, this is a year. So interest would be paid every year
The compounding frequency - it is the number of times the deposit would be compounded. It is 12 months
The future value of the deposit can be determined using this formula :
FV = P (1 + r/m)^nm
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
m = number of compounding

The following information is provided for Sandhill Company and Whispering Corporation. (in $ millions) Sandhill Company Whispering Corporation Net income 2022 $130 $445 Net sales 2022 1715 4640 Total assets 12/31/20 1010 2010 Total assets 12/31/21 1085 3070 Total assets 12/31/22 1150 4100 What is Sandhill's return on assets for 2022
Answer:
11.63%
Explanation:
Average assets = [Total assets 12/31/21 + Total assets 12/31/22] / 2
Average assets = [$1085 + $1150] / 2
Average assets = $2,235 / 2
Average assets = $1,117.50
Return on Assets = Net income / Average assets
Return on Assets = $130 / $1,117.50
Return on Assets = 0.1163311
Return on Assets = 11.63%
So therefore, Sandhill's return on assets for 2022 is 11.63%.

Alpha Corporation has just paid its annual dividend and is looking forward to another successful year ahead. The company had free cash flow for the year just ended of $1 billion, all of which it just paid out to its shareholders as a dividend. Right now, shareholders do not believe that Alpha has any growth opportunities, so they expect the annual cash flow and dividend stream to remain unchanged for the foreseeable future. Alpha has 100 million 3 shares outstanding and a market capitalization of $10 billion. The company is entirely equity-financed. The capital market is efficient.
A) Alpha's CEO now proposes that the company skip its dividend one year from now and instead invest the entire amount of the coming year's $1 billion free cash flow in a project that management believes will generate a perpetual annual rate of return of 21%. The CEO further asserts that the new project has similar risk to the company's assets in place. If the company were to announce immediately its plans for the investment one year from now (financed by skipping next year's dividend) what do you think will happen to Alpha's stock price?
B) Some of Alpha's Board members are worried that shareholders are expecting a dividend next year and that announcing plans to skip next year's dividend will lower the stock price today. Suppose Alpha were to announce instead that it plans to pay its usual dividend one year from now and that it has no plans for any new investment at T-. What will happen to the stock price today?
C) Suppose Alpha settles on a compromise: Alpha announces today that it will invest in the new project one year from now, butwill simultaneously issue enough new shares at that time to enable it to pay the usual S10 dividend per share to its existing shareholders. What do you think will happen to Alpha's share price one year from now under this plan? What do you think will happen to Alpha's stock price today? Which of the three plans do you think Alpha's shareholders would prefer?
Answer:
(A) Alpha's stock price will fall.
(B) What will happen to the stock price today is that it will rise.
Explanation:
(C)
(i) Under the compromise plan and one year from now, Alpha's share price will fall, since Alpha will be desperate for new share holders.
(ii) Alpha's stock price today will rise, since the value of existing stocks will increase - that is, existing shareholders are assured of their usual $10 dividend plus extra dividend from the 21% estimated annual ROR on the intended project.
(iii) Which of the three plans would Alpha's shareholders prefer?
Regular-thinking shareholders would prefer Plan B. Patient shareholders would prefer Plan A, especially if they don't see many new shareholders in one year's time. Optimistic shareholders would prefer Plan C.
To save money for his daughter's college tuition, Dan invests every quarter in an annuity that pays interest, compounded quarterly. Payments will be made at the end of each quarter. Find the total value of the annuity in years.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
To save money for his daughter's college tuition, Dan invests $269 every quarter in an annuity that pays 6.9% interest, compounded quarterly. Payments will be made at the end of each quarter. Find the total value of the annuity in 20 years.
Solution :
Given :
Annuity = $ 269
Compounded quarterly for 20 years, so N = 4 x 20 = 80
Rate of interest = [tex]$\frac{6.90 \%}{4}$[/tex]
= 1.725 %
We know Future value of the annuity is given by :
[tex]$FV= \text{Annuity} \times \frac{(1+R)^{N-1}}{R}$[/tex]
[tex]$FV= \text{269} \times \frac{(1+1.725\%)^{80-1}}{1.725\%}$[/tex]
[tex]$=269 \times 169.762413$[/tex]
= 45666.09
So the total value of he annuity is $45,666.09
Suppose that you wish to hedge the exchange rate risk on a foreign receivable of 1,240,000 euros. You decide to do this with a long option whose underlying asset is the euro (I won't tell you whether it's a put or a call). If this option has a strike of $1.15/euro, a multiple of 10,000 euros, and a per-contract (i.e. per 10k euros) premium of $175, then what is the least number of dollars you could possibly expect to net from this hedged receivable
Answer: $1404300
Explanation:
The least number of dollars that one could possibly expect to net from this hedged receivable will be calculated thus:
Amount receivable = 1,240,000 euros
Contract size for put option = 10000
Therefore, the number of contract that can be purchased will be:
= 1240000 / 10000
= 124
The total cost of option will be:
= $175 × 124
= $21700
We then calculate the minimum dollars available which will be:
= 1240000 × 1.15
= $1426000
We then deduct the total cost of option to get the net dollar proceed which will be:
= $1426000 - $21700
= $1404300
Therefore, the the least number of dollars that is expected to net from this hedged receivable is $1404300.
Vijay Company reports the following information regarding its production costs. Direct materials $ 10 per unit Direct labor $ 20 per unit Overhead costs for the year Variable overhead $ 10 per unit Fixed overhead $ 160,000 Units produced 20,000 units
Compute its product cost per unit under absorption costing.
Production cost per unit
Answer:
$48 per unit
Explanation:
Given the above data, we need to find the value of unitary fixed overhead.
Unitary fixed overhead = $160,000 / 20,000 = $8
Now, we can then calculate unitary cost of production
Unitary cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Total overhead
Unitary cost = $10 + $20 + $10 + $8
Unitary cost = $48 per unit

The Reynolds Company buys from its suppliers on terms of 4/10, net 64. Reynolds has not been utilizing the discount offered and has
been taking 76 days to pay its bills. The suppliers seem to accept this payment pattern, and Reynold's credit rating has not been hurt.
Mr. Duke, Reynolds Company's vice-president, has suggested that the company begin to take the discount offered. Mr. Duke proposes
the company borrow from its bank at a stated rate of 18 percent. The bank requires a 12 percent compensating balance on these
loans. Current account balances would not be available to meet any of this required compensating balance.
Calculate the cost of not taking a cash discount. (Use 365 days in a year. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final
answer to 2 decimal places.)
Cost of not taking a cash discount
Answer: 23.04%
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the cost of not taking a cash discount will be calculated as:
= D/(1-D) × (360/n)
where D = Discount rate
n = number of days after the discounted period
= D/(1-D) × (360/n)
= 4%/(1 - 4%) × [365/(76-10)]
= 4%/96% × (365/66)
= 0.0416667 × 5.530303
= 0.2304295
= 23.04%

What has happened to the supply of pomegranate beverages as a result?
Answer:
OM Pomegranate Juice
The supply of pomegranate beverages has risen above demand, thereby causing market glut.
Explanation:
With many suppliers of pomegranate beverages, the quantity being supplied will outstrip demand. The immediate result is a glut in the market. This will lead to producing at less than full capacity as individual producers make efforts to sell their inventories. Workers may need to be laid off in order to meet the resulting economic situation.

Dean has earned $70,750 annually for the past five years working as an architect for WCC Incorporated Under WCC's defined benefit plan (which uses a seven-year graded vesting schedule) employees earn a benefit equal to 3.5 percent of the average of their three highest annual salaries for every full year of service with WCC. Dean has worked for five full years for WCC and his vesting percentage is 60 percent. What is Dean's vested benefit (or annual retirement benefit he has earned so far)
Answer:
$7,429
Explanation:
Calculation to determine Dean's vested benefit
Using this formula
Vested benefit=Average salary for the prior three years×( 3.5% × 5 years of service)×Vesting percentage)
Let plug in the formula
Vested benefit=$70,750 ×( 3.5% × 5)× 60%
Vested benefit=$70,750 × 17.5%× 60%
Vested benefit=$7,428.75
Vested benefit=$7,429 (Approximately)
Therefore Dean's vested benefit is $7,429
The national lottery in the country of San Dayana is advertising on billboards in the poverty stricken, inner-cities of the country. "Buy your way out of here to America" Buy the 5 for 1 lottery tickets every Friday." Would you consider this an ethical marketing strategy? Why/Why not?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Would you consider this an ethical marketing strategy?
No. Of course not. It is not ethical. However, it is not illegal.
It cannot be considered ethical because this piece of advertisement is playing with the lack and necessity of the poor people of San Dayana.
The lottery advertisement is trying to be lucrative and benefit from the ignorance and poverty of the people of this poor country.
Once said that people are the ones who had the last word on the decision to buy or not to buy the lottery tickets. They know that the probabilities are minimum to win the big prize.
So instead of work, save and invest, or do other legal things to prosper, they prefer to spend their hard-earn money to get the "miracle" and become rich.

HINT: Think of Accumulated Project Costs as an account similar to Inventory - it is an asset account used to accumulate the costs that have been incurred related to the project being completed for the customer.
THEN Hipzone Inc. needs to record depreciation on a piece of office equipment. The equipment was purchased on 1/1/2010 for $2,000, was expected to last 10 years at the time of purchase, and had an expected salvage value of $200. No depreciation has been recorded on the equipment for 2013. Make ALL of the entries required by this transaction.

Salvage value = $200
Depreciable amount = $1,800 ($2,000 - $200)
Annual depreciation expense = $180 ($1,800/10)
December 31, 2013:
Depreciation expense $180 Accumulated Depreciation $180
Tangshan Mining Company must choose its optimal capital structure. Currently, the firm has a 40 percent debt ratio and the firm expects to generate a dividend next year of $4.89 per share and dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 5 percent for the foreseeable future. Stockholders currently require a 10.89 percent return on their investment. Tangshan Mining is considering changing its capital structure if it would benefit shareholders. The firm estimates that if it increases the debt ratio to 50 percent, it will increase its expected dividend to $5.24 per share. Because of the additional leverage, dividend growth is expected to increase to 6 percent and this growth will be sustained indefinitely. However, because of the added risk, the required return demanded by stockholders will increase to 11.34 percent. (a) What is the value per share for Tangshan Mining under the current capital structure
