Kendra Corporation uses a process-cost accounting system. The company adds direct materials and direct labor at the start of its production process; overhead cost is incurred evenly throughout manufacturing. The firm has no beginning work-in-process inventory; its ending work in process is 40% complete. Which of the following sets of percentages would be used to calculate the correct number of equivalent units in the ending work-in-process inventory?
a. Materials, 100%; labor, 100%; overhead cost, 40%.
b. Materials, 100%; labor, 100%; overhead cost, 100%.
c. Materials, 100%; labor 40%; overhead cost, 40%.
d. Materials, 40%; labor, 40%; overhead cost, 60%.
e. Materials, 40%; labor, 40%; overhead cost, 100%.
Answer:
a. Materials, 100%; labor, 100%; overhead cost, 40%.
Explanation:
The work in Process have already passed the mark at which Materials and Labor are added, that is the start of its production process so these are both 100% complete. Overheads are 40 % complete, which is the extent of work done on them since they occur evenly.

A manufacturing company applies factory overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that factory overhead costs would be $348,400 and direct labor hours would be 47,000. Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred were $304,000, and actual direct labor hours were 52,400. The journal entry to apply the factory overhead costs for the year would include a
Answer:
Journal Entry
Debit Work-in-Process $388,284
Credit Manufacturing Overhead $388,284
To record the application of factory overhead costs for the year.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Estimated factory overhead costs = $348,400
Estimated direct labor hours = 47,000
Predetermined overhead rate = $7.41 ($348,400/47,000)
Actual overhead costs = $304,000
Actual direct labor hours = 52,400
Applied overhead costs = $388,284 (52,400 * $7.41)
b) The overhead applied to the production for the year will be the actual direct labor hours by the predetermined overhead rate. This yields a cost that is greater than the actual overhead costs, which means that the manufacturing overhead was overapplied. The cause of this situation is the number of actual direct labor hours worked vis-a-vis the actual overhead costs and the predetermined rate.
Over the past decade, many American candy companies have opened factories in Mexico and Canada to produce candy. The companies, including Hershey Company, Brach's Confections, and Ferrara Pan, then ship candy back to the United States for sale. Although lower wages in Mexico might explain part of this move, wages in Canada are comparable to U.S. wages. Price floors (price supports) for the sugar industry encouraged American candy companies to move production out of the United States. Describe how the enactment of a sugar price floor impacted the market for candy in the United States, resulting in the movement of manufacturing.
Answer:
The sugar industry in the US is very powerful and has been able to establish trade barriers and import quotas that affect domestic prices. Sugar prices in the US are extremely high compared to prices in any other country, including Canada, Mexico, China, European nation, i.e. American sugar is the most expensive in the world.
Besides imposing trade barriers, the government also imposes a binding price floor. Binding price floors always result in deadweight losses since the quantity demanded is lower than equilibrium. This is why American candy manufacturers move their production overseas. the highest cost in the candy industry is actually sugar, and wherever they decide to relocate their factories it will always be cheaper.
The amount of joint costs allocated to product DBB-1 using the sales value at split-off method is (calculate all ratios and percentages to 2 decimal places, for example 33.33%, and round all dollar amounts to the nearest whole dollar): $2,213,640. $939,240. $216,870. $757,800. $447,120.
Answer:
$2,213,640
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount of joint costs allocated to product DBB-1 using the sales value at split-off method
First step is to calculate the total amount
DBB-1= 16,000 units *$25
DBB-1= 400,000
DBB-2= 24,000 units *$35
DBB-2= 840,000
DBB-2= 36,000 units *$55
DBB-2= 1,980,000
Total =3,220,000
(400,000+840,000+1,980,000)
Second step is to calculate the Weight for DBB-3
Weight for DBB-3= 1,980,000 / 3,220,000 Weight for DBB-3=61.49%
Now let calculate the Joint cost for DBB-3
Joint cost for DBB-3=$36,00,000*61.49%
Joint cost for DBB-3=$2,213,640
Therefore The amount of joint costs allocated to product DBB-1 using the sales value at split-off method is $2,213,640
You buy a share of The Ludwig Corporation stock for $19.20. You expect it to pay dividends of $1.11, $1.1833, and $1.2614 in Years 1, 2, and 3, respectively, and you expect to sell it at a price of $23.26 at the end of 3 years. Calculate the growth rate in dividends. Round your answer to two decimal places. % Calculate the expected dividend yield. Round your answer to two decimal places. % Assuming that the calculated growth rate is expected to continue, you can add the dividend yield to the expected growth rate to obtain the expected total rate of return. What is this stock's expected total rate of return (assume market is in equilibrium with the required rate of return equal to the expected return)
Answer:
P0 = $19.20
D1 = $1.11
D2 = $1.1833
D3 = $1.2614
P3 = $23.26
a. Dividend growth rate = (1.2614-1.1833)/1.1833 = 0.0781/1.1833 = 0.06600186 = 6.60%
b. Expected Dividend Yield=(Expected Dividend/Price)*100 = $1.11/$19.20 = 0.0578125 = 5.78%
c. Total Rate of Return = 6.60% + 5.78% = 12.38%
What are the costs and sources of inefficiency in a barter B apply.) A. Productivity is increased by specialization. B. Each good has only one price. C. There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners. D. There is a lack of standardization. E. There is difficulty in accumulating wealth. OF. Transactions costs are almost always high.
Answer:
C)There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.
D)There is a lack of standardization.
E)There is difficulty in accumulating wealth.
Explanation:
barter in a trade can be regarded as a system of exchange that involves exchange of goods and services for another without using money as a medium of exchange. Barter is been considered as 'inefficient' as a result of the needs for 'double coincidence of wants'. For instance in a situation whereby someone is buying particular amount of another's goods, but the payment he/she has is for just one indivisible unit of another good, and the worth is higher than what he/she want to obtain, in this case there won't be barter transaction.
It should be noted that the costs and sources of inefficiency in a barter are;
✓There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.
✓There is a lack of standardization.
✓There is difficulty in accumulating
1. Friedman distinguishes between the two concepts that (a) businesses really do act in ways to maximize profit and (b) businesses have a moral responsibility (or, as he puts it, a social responsibility) to act to maximize profit. How does he defend the latter position? (See both the Friedman and Sandbu readings)
Explanation:
Friedman defends the position that companies have a social responsibility to act to maximize profit, in the sense that, the primary function of companies is to generate profit. The author goes against the growing opinions in society that companies must have social responsibility, that is, they need to create a positive and sensitive corporate image to please political and society interests and counter or even soften the words and actions its central purpose, which is profit generation. For him, social responsibility cannot be politicized in order to be an obligation of companies, as it limits freedom and interests arising from the business.

A firm produces truffles by using labor and capital. The price of labor is $10 per unit, and the price of capital is $20 per unit. At current output level, the marginal product of labor is 40 truffles and the marginal product of capital is 60 truffles. To reduce the total cost of producing the current quantity of truffles, how should the firm change its spending on labor and capital
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
With the information given in the question, the firm should change its spending on labor and capital by increasing its labor and at thesame time, also reducing capital.
This is because since the marginal product of labor is 40 truffles and the price of labor is $10 per unit, it means that 4 truffles/dollar is being spent on labor, while for capital, 3 truffles/dollar is being spent.
Suppose that Harry drinks one cup of coffee with his preferred three packs of creamer every day for seven days. What is his utility for that week
Answer:
21
Explanation:
The computation of the utility for that week is as follows:
Given that
There are three packs
Also it is for seven days
u(x,y) = min(3x,y)
C = 1
x = 1
y = 3
So,
u = min(3,3)
= 3
For 7 days it would be
= 7 × 3
= 21
Hence, the utility for that week is 21

Margot starts a new business and contributes $20,000 in cash; she also borrows $25,000 from her local bank. She utilizes the cash to purchase supplies for $5,000 and a computer system for $10,000. After these transactions, the total claims to the company's total resources are:
Answer:
$45,000
Explanation:
Given the above information, total resources is computed as;
Total resources = Cash + Purchase supplies + Equipment computer system
But
Cash = $20,000 + $25,000 - $5,000 - $10,000 = $30,000
Total resources = $30,000 + $5,000 + $10,000 = $45,000

The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to:_____
The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to $10.65.
Here, the fixed cost would not be relevant for the computation.
Incremental manufacturing cost when production level changed is
= Direct material cost per unit + Direct labor cost per unit + Variable manufacturing overhead per unit
= $6.25 + $3.20 + $1.20
= $10.65
In conclusion, the incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to $10.65.

Joshua loans his son, Seth, $100,000 interest free for five years. Seth uses the money for a down payment on his home. Assume that the applicable federal interest rate is 4 percent. What are the tax consequences of this loan to Joshua and to Seth? How would your answer change if Seth uses the money to invest in corporate bonds paying 8 percent annual interest? [LO
Answer:
What are the tax consequences of this loan to Joshua and to Seth?
The IRS requires that any loans must charge a minimum interest rate, and in this case, since Joshua is not charging any interest to his son, the IRS will consider the minimum interest rate as a gift and will tax it that way. Since Joshua can make gifts for $15,000 per year, if the threshold is already passed, the IRS will consider $100,000 x 4% = $4,000 as taxable gifts.
How would your answer change if Seth uses the money to invest in corporate bonds paying 8 percent annual interest?
The answer shouldn't change since Joshua is the one that can be taxed here. Seth cannot deduct any interest expense or gift tax expense either.

Moreover the customer satisfaction is an important aspect of a high level review. The following other options are incorrect because they are less important for a high level review.
Although GDP is a reasonably good measure of a nation's output, it does not necessarily include all transactions and production for that nation. Which of the following scenarios are either not accounted for or measured inaccurately by either the income or the expenditure methods of calculating GDP for the United States?
a. The costs of overfishing and other overly intensive uses of resources
b. Federal government paychecks to soldiers
c. The value Of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government
d. The variety of goods available to consumers
When a U.S. company purchases and imports wood from Brazil to use to build new houses within the United States, this purchase increases the ________ component of GDP while also ____________ net exports by the same amount. Therefore, the purchase of wood from Brazil causes_________ in US GDP.
Answer:
a, c , d
investment
decreasing
no effect
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports – imports
When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.
Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:
1. services not rendered to oneself
2. Activities not reported to the government
3. illegal activities
4. sale or purchase of used products
5. sale or purchase of intermediate products
6. Externalities
Investment spending by businesses includes purchases made by businesses. So, investment spending increases. Net export decreases because import is a negative function of GDP. The increase and decrease cancel each other out and there would be no change in GDP
The Beckham Company has the following information about their activity cost pools: Activity Cost Pools Total Overhead Cost Total Activity Machine Setups $ 125,000 5,000 setups Customer Orders $ 200,000 1,250 orders Product Design $ 300,000 2,500 product design hours The activity rate for machine setups is ________. multiple choice $125,000 $0.04 per setup $10 per setup $25 per setup
Answer:
$25 per setup
Explanation:
With regards to the above, activity rate is computed as;
= Activity cost pool resources / Activity driver
Activity cost pool resources = $125,000
Activity driver = 5,000
Activity rate for machine setup = $125,000/5,000 = $25 per setup

Change in stockholders' equity = $580,000 - $230,000 = $350,000
No additional shares issued, so net income = $350,000
Blue
Change in stockholders' equity = $580,000 - $230,000 = $350,000
No additional shares issued, but dividends paid for $60,000, so net income = $410,000
Coral
Change in stockholders' equity = $580,000 - $230,000 = $350,000
Additional shares issued for $140,000, so net income = $210,000
Daffodil
Change in stockholders' equity = $580,000 - $230,000 = $350,000
Additional shares issued for $140,000, dividends paid for $60,000, so net income = $270,000

Uncle Fred recently died and left $280,000 to his 45-year-old favorite niece. She immediately spent $80,000 on a town home but decided to invest the balance for her retirement at age 65. What rate of return must she earn on her investment over the next 20 years to permit her to withdraw $75,000 at the end of each year through age 80 if her funds earn 10 percent annually during retirement
Answer:
6.06%
Explanation:
The computation of the rate of return is shown below:
Given that
NPER = 20 years
PV = ($280,000 - $80,000) = $200,000
PMT = $0
FV = $75,000 × PVIFA factor at 10% for 21 years
= $75,000 × 8.6487
= $648,652.50
The following formula should be applied
= RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;TYPE)
The present value comes in negative
After applying the above formula, the rate of return is 6.06%

Sheffield Corp. applies overhead to production at a predetermined rate of 90% based on direct labor cost. Job No. 250, the only job still in process at the end of August, has been charged with manufacturing overhead of $11700. What was the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000
Answer:
$20,300
Explanation:
Calculation for What was the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000
Direct materials charged to Job 250=$45,000 - ($11,700 / .90) - $11,700
Direct materials charged to Job 250=$45,000 - $13,000- $11,700
Direct materials charged to Job 250= $20,300
Therefore the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000 will be $20,300
