True or False: Firms operating in more price-competitive industries, or exhibiting lower levels of market power, generally exhibit lower levels of business risk, all other things being equal. This statement is: True False

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The statement is false

Explanation:

Determining the profitability depends on market power. At a higher market power, the level of profitability will be high.

Conversely, a company operating in a system where its market power is low which results into inability to compete with other companies will cause a low probability.

Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a(n):

Answers

Answer:

Reversionary interest

Explanation:

If Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a reversionary interest.

A reversionary interest can be defined as a property law (deed) which states that when a property such as a land transfer is used on a clause; “for so long as” or “on condition that."

Hence, once the interest of the benefactor comes to an end, the property reverts back to its original owner (grantor). It also gives the grantor's next of kin, successor or heir the power or right to take the property back in the future if promises are broken or the agreement comes to an end.

This ultimately implies that, if a property stated in the deed is not used or used, for certain purposes.

In this scenario, Larry owns a reversionary interest because he gifts a land to the school district, but in the deed he stated "for so long as the land is used for a school."

The cost structure of two firms competing in the same industry is represented by the following cost formulas: Company X = $2,276,000 + $50/ unit; Company Z = $1,052,000 + $98/unit. The selling price is $145 per unit for both companies. Required: 1. Calculate the indifference point between the two cost structures, that is, the amount of unit sales that produce exactly the same operating income for Company X and Company Z.

Answers

Answer:

Indifference point= 25,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Company X = $2,276,000 + $50/ unit

Company Z = $1,052,000 + $98/unit

We need to find the indifference point where the two companies provide the same total cost.

We need to equal both cost equations:

2,276,000 + 50x = 1,052,000 + 98x

1,224,000 = 48x

25,500= x

x= number of units

To prove:

Company X = $2,276,000 + $50*25,500= $3,551,000

Company Z = $1,052,000 + $98*25,500= $3,551,000

Q3) At an output level of 45,000 units, you calculate that the degree of operating leverage is 2.79. If output rises to 48,000 units, what will the percentage change in operating cash flow be

Answers

Answer:  18.6%

Explanation:

Degree of operating leverage =  % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output

% change in Output

= [tex]\frac{48,000 - 45,000}{45,000}[/tex]

= 6.7%

Degree of operating leverage =  % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output

2.79 = % change in Operating cash flow/ 6.7%

% change in Operating cash flow = 2.79 * 6.7%

% change in Operating cash flow = 18.6%

b. Gordon's estate must include $______ as to the property.
c. How would the estate tax consequences change if it was Fawn (not Gordon) who died?
Fawn's estate would include $___0___ as to the property.

Answers

Answer:

a. Gordon made a gift when the real estate was purchased of $450,000 to Fawn.

Since Gordon gave 50% of the real estate to his sister as a gift when he purchased it, the gift must be valued at the time it happened ($900,000 x 50%)

b. Gordon's estate must include $2,900,000 as to the property.

Gordon purchased all the real estate by himself, so his estate must include the value of the whole property.

c. How would the estate tax consequences change if it was Fawn (not Gordon) who died?

Fawn's estate would include $0 as to the property.

Since Fawn didn't buy the property, her estate cannot include any amount of it.

Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances At the beginning of June, Bezco Toy Company budgeted 24,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct materials and direct labor costs as follows: Direct materials $36,000 Direct labor 8,640 Total $44,640 The standard materials price is $0.6 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $9 per hour. At the end of June, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows: Actual direct materials $33,400 Actual direct labor 8,000 Total $41,400 There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct materials inventory balances in June. Bezco Toy Company actually produced 21,600 units during June. Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal places, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. Direct materials quantity variance $ 2.5 Favorable Direct labor time variance

Answers

Answer:

$1,000 unfavorable and $224 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the direct material quantity variance and the direct labor time variance is shown below:

For direct material quantity variance:

= (Standard direct materials ÷ bugeted toy × actually produced) - actual direct materials

= ($36,000 ÷ $24,000 × 21,600 units) - $33,400

= $32,400 - $33,400

= $1,000 unfavorable

For direct labor time variance

= (Standard direct labor ÷ bugeted toy × actually produced) - actual direct labor

=  ($8,640 ÷ $24,000 × 21,600 units) - $8,000

= $7,776 - $8,000

= $224 unfavorable

The adjusted cost of goods sold that appears on the income statement for February is:____
$=

Answers

Answer:

$186,700

Explanation:

The computation of adjusted cost of goods sold is shown below:-

Before that we need to do the following calculations

Raw material consumed = Beginning raw material + Raw material purchases - Ending raw materials - Raw materials included in  manufacturing overhead costs  as indirect materials

= $40,000 + $63,000 - $24,000 - $5,000

= $74,000

Total manufacturing cost = Beginning work in progress + Raw material consumed + Direct labor cost + Manufacturing overhead cost - Ending work in progress

= $23,000 + $74,000 + $73,700 + $48,000 - $17,000

= $201,700

Unadjusted Cost of goods sold = Raw materials + Total manufacturing cost - Ending finished goods

= $50,000 + $201,700 - $72,000

= $179,700

Adjusted COGS = Unadjusted Cost of goods sold + Underapplied overhead

= $179,700 + ($55,000 - $48,000)

= $179,700 + $7,000

= $186,700

Exercise 10-6 Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances [LO10-1, LO10-2] Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost Direct materials 7.40 pounds $ 2.60 per pound $ 19.24 Direct labor 0.45 hours $ 8.00 per hour $ 3.60 During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded: 12,100.00 pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.50 per pound. All of the material purchased was used to produce 1,500 units of Zoom. 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct material:

Standard= 7.40 pounds $ 2.60 per pound

Actual= 12,100 pounds of material were purchased for $2.50 per pound.

Direct labor:

Standard= 0.45 hours $ 8.00 per hour

Actual= 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750

Units produced= 1,500

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (2.6 - 2.5)*12,100

Direct material price variance= $1,210 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

standard quantity= 1,500*7.4= 11,100

Direct material quantity variance= (11,100 - 12,100)*2.6

Direct material quantity variance= $2,600 unfavorable

To calculate the direct labor efficiency and rate variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Standard quantity= 1,500*0.45= 675

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (675 - 575)*8

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $800 favorable

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Actual rate= 5,750/575= $10

Direct labor rate variance= (8 - 10)*575

Direct labor rate variance= $1,150 unfavorable

9. Paid $148,000 to tear down old building on new plant site.
10. Paid $31 ,000 maintenance on equipment in (4) during its first year of use.

Answers

Answer:

Options 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are capital expenditure.

Options 1, 3, and 10 are the immediate expenses.

Option 5 is Neither.

Explanation:

Capital expenditure is those expenditures that are incurred to maintain the fixed assets. Thus Options 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are capital expenditure. While the expenses that are compulsory and immediate in nature are called the immediate expenses. This means if the equipment requires repairing then it will fall in the category of immediate expense because without repairing it won't work. Therefore, a property tax of $75000, repair of the main plant,  and maintenance for equipment are immediate expenses.

: Imagine that Canada, the US, and Mexico decide to adopt a fixed exchange rate system. What would be the likely consequences of such a system for the flow of trade and investment between all three countries

Answers

Answer:

The exchange rate would benefit the U.S. and Canada more, that it would benefit Mexico.

This is because the Mexican currency: Mexican Peso, is devalued when compared to the U.S. Dollar and the Canadian Dollar. This means that Mexican exports are comparatively cheaper than American or Canadian exports, causing a great growth of Mexican manufacturing in recent decades.

In a fixed exchange rate system, Mexico would lose this competitive advantage. It would still have lower labor costs, but the amount of manufacturing that would move from the U.S. and Canada to Mexico would probably be less.

Many companies secure financing from various sources with various payback periods. Not all funding sources are the same, and in fact, some can come with a pretty high cost to the firm. These costs could include high interest rates, long payback periods, and increased ownership in the firm which could result in lost control.

Please analyze the funding options listed, and determine if the option is usually a short-term or long-term strategy.

a. Line of credit
b. Commercial paper
c. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months
d. Bond
e. Stock
f. Bank loan of 20 months

Answers

Answer:

a. Line of credit - Long-term strategy

A line of credit is a long-term strategy because businesses obtain lines of credit for their use over long periods of time. The particular characteristic is that a line of credit is only used when the business decides to do so, so it works almost like a credit card.

b. Commercial paper - Short-term strategy

Commercial paper is a short-term debt that is issued by firms when they have problems to pay operating expenses. They are unsecured, and pay a specific amount of interest.

c. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months - Short-term strategy

In financial accounting, loans that last for less than a year are categorized as short-term liabilities, therefore, a trade credit bank loan of 10 months is a short-term strategy.

d. Bond - Long-term strategy

While some bonds are issued for the short-term, the majority of them are issued for the long-term, with some of them lasting 10 years or more.

e. Stock - Long-term strategy

Buying or issuing stock is also a long-term strategy, specially because the dividend of the stock is only paid out once every year, unlike other debt instruments that pay interest immediately.

f. Bank loan of 20 months - Long-term strategy

A bank loan of more than 1 years is considered a long-term liability in financial accounting, therefore, a bank loan of 20 months is part of a long-term strategy.

Analyzing the given funding options and placing them in their right categories would be:

A. Line of credit - Long-term strategy B. Commercial paper - Short-term strategy C. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months - Short-term strategy D. Bond - Long-term strategy E. Stock - Long-term strategy F. Bank loan of 20 months - Long-term strategy

A long term strategy is one which financial institutions use to secure their assets for the foreseeable future while a short term strategy is used for short term gains on stocks and finances.

With this in mind, we can see that there are different funding options which are short or long term as the case may be, which depends on the amount of profit which the business wants to accrue.

2. What total amount of bond interest expense will be recognized over the life of these bonds?
3. What amount of bond interest expense is recorded on the first interest payment date?

Answers

Answer:

A.$269,675

B.$305,325

C.$10,787

Explanation:

Requirement A Cash proceeds

Cash proceeds can find out by multiplying par value with the selling price

Cash proceeds = Par Value x Selling price

Cash proceeds = $230,000 x 117.25%

Cash proceeds = $269,675

Requirement B Interest Expense

Bond interest expense =Total repayment -Amount borrowed(REQ.A)

Bond interest expense = $575,000(w) - $269,675

Bond interest expense = $305,325

Workings

Semi-annual interest expense =  $230,000 x 10% x 6/12

Semi-annual interest expense = $11,500

Total payment would be 30 for 15 years

Total payment = $11,500 x 30

Total payment = $345,000

Total repayment = Par value + $345,000

Total repayment = $230,000 + $345,000

Total repayment = $575,000

Requirement C Bond interest expense on the first interest payment date

Bond interest Expense = $269,675(REQ.A) x 8% x 6/12

Bond interest Expense = $10,787
