Answer: lower
Explanation:
Variable costing is a method used in accounting whereby the manufacturing overhead will be incurred at the particular period when the product is produced.
In the absorption costing method, the indirect expenses which are the overheads and the direct costs are taken into consideration.
The variable costing helps to solve the issue regarding absorption costing which allows for an increase in income as there is am increase in production.
Which of the following is NOT an option for remedying a cost disadvantage associated with activities performed by forward channel allies (wholesale distributors and retail dealers)?
a. Change to a more economical distribution strategy such as putting more emphasis on cheaper distribution channels (perhaps direct sales via the Internet) or perhaps integrating forward into company-owned retail outlets
b. Enhance differentiation through activities such as cooperative advertising) at the forward end of the value chain
c. Pressure distributors/dealers and other forward-channel allies to reduce their costs and markups
d. Insisting on across-the-board cost cuts in all value chain activities—those performed by suppliers, those performed in- house, and those performed by distributors/dealers
e. Collaborate with forward channel allies to identify win-win opportunities to reduce costs
Answer: d. Insisting on across-the-board cost cuts in all value chain activities—those performed by suppliers, those performed in- house, and those performed by distributors/dealers
Explanation:
The cost disadvantage is from the forward channel allies and not an across the board problem which involves all value chain activities. As such, the solution should be garnered towards the forward channel allies.
Insisting on cuts in areas that could be already functioning efficiently could lead to a loss of that efficiency.
Insisting on across-the-board cost cuts in all value chain activities is therefore not an option for remedying a cost disadvantage associated with activities performed by forward channel allies.
DIP LLC reports ordinary income (before guaranteed payments) of $120,000, rent expense of $40,000, and interest income of $4,000 for the year. In addition, DIP paid guaranteed payments to partner Percy of $20,000. If Percy owns a 40% capital and profits interest, how much income will he report for the year and what is its character?
Answer:
$24,000 ordinary income
$1,600 interest income
$20,000 guaranteed payment.
Explanation:
Calculation for what how much income will Percy report for the year and what is its character
Calculation for Percy Ordinary income: 120,000 - 40,000 - 20,000
= 60,000 x 40%
= 24,000.
Calculation for Percy Interest income:
4,000 x 40%
= 1,600
Guaranteed Payment: 20,000
Therefore what Percy will report will be: $24,000 ordinary income
$1,600 interest income
$20,000 guaranteed payment.
Q 7.34: At the end of a shift, the sales clerk turned over $21,476.38 in cash, checks, and credit card receipts to the cashier. When the supervisor looked at the cash register tape for that shift, the tape stated that the sales clerk had sold $21,478.23 in merchandise. What should the company do as a result of this difference
Answer:
A cash shortage of $1.85 has occurred. The sales clerk must have taken away more in tips than she should.
The company can ask the sales clerk to refund the sum of $1.85 shortage provided it allows the sales clerk also to take away overages. If not, the shortage can be taken from the overtages, if any.
Explanation:
In handling cash, shortages and overages occur. The best policy is to prevent such shortfall and excess in cash handling as they can lead to other problems. But, where the shortages and overages are tolerable, the company should accommodate them by creating clear company policies about the issues. Policies provide guides to employees so that they know what they are ordinarily expected to do.

The Juarez family is looking for a new cable company. After conducting research, they decide on a new cable provider. They call the new cable provider and mention they are going to switch from another provider. The salesperson at the new cable provider congratulates the Juarez family and lets them know that the new provider has been rated the highest in customer satisfaction in the industry. The salesperson tells them that if they sign up today for cable service, he will offer them a great monthly rate plus a free three-month trial of ten premium channels that they can cancel at any time. The Juarez family likes what they hear, and they sign up for the service. The salesperson has used which type of IMC marketing materials to close the sale?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options provided, we can say the following.
The IMC marketing material to close the sale was the personal selling tool, using persuasion, and highlighting the benefits of the service to close the sale.
We are talking about Integrated Marketing Communications that include different disciplines such as Public Relations, Promotions, Sales, or Advertising. These resources are used by companies to plan and implement programs aimed to offer their products and services and closing the sale, relying on good customer service. Most of the modern campaigns include IMC to support the marketing effort.
"A dealer buys 10,000 shares of ABC common at $15 for its inventory. One week later the stock is quoted at $18 - $19, and a customer buys 100 shares from the dealer at a net price of $20. Under the FINRA 5% Policy, a fair and reasonable mark-up is based upon which price?"
Answer: c. $19
Explanation:
Under the FINRA 5% Policy, a fair and reasonable mark-up or commission is based upon the current market price of the stock not how much the dealer bought it for or rather their cost. As such, when the customer buys, which was the case in this scenario, the mark-up is charged on the inside ask price which in this case is $19.
Were the customer to be selling, any mark-downs will be charged on the inside bid price which in this case is $18.

Answer:
$6,000
Explanation:
Net income for the year = Service revenue - Salaries
= $32,000 - $26,000
= $6,000
Since Net income = retained earnings,
Therefore, retained earnings = $6,000

On January 1, 20X7, Server Company purchased a machine with an expected economic life of five years. On January 1, 20X9, Server sold the machine to Patron Corporation and recorded the following entry:
Cash 45,000
Accumulated Depreciation 28,000
Machine 70,000
Gain on Sale of Equipment 3,000
Patron Corporation holds 75 percent of Server's voting shares. Server reported net income of $50,000, and Patron reported income from its own operations of $100,000 for 20X9. There is no change in the estimated economic life of the equipment as a result of the intercorporate transfer. Based on the preceding information, in the preparation of the 20X9 consolidated income statement, machine will be what amount and will it be debited or credited in the consolidation entry?
Answer:
Consolidation entry is given below
Explanation:
Consolidated Entry DEBIT CREDIT
Machinery(w) $42,000
Loss on purchase $3,000
Cash $45,000
NOTE: We will record a loss in consolidation entry because the consideration paid is greater than the machinery's carrying value.
Working
Carrying value = Net book value - Accumulated Depreciation
Carrying value = $70,000 - $28,000
Carrying value = $42,000
Toyota will bring hybrid electric automobiles to market next year priced at $27 comma 000 (this includes a $6 comma 750 federal tax credit). At $1.89 per gallon of gasoline, it will take 11 years to recoup the difference in price between a base model Toyota Camry and its four-cylinder gasoline-only counterpart. The price difference is $4 comma 180. If the hybrid vehicle is driven for 15 years, what is the internal rate of return on the extra investment in the hybrid?
Answer:
4.15%
Explanation:
In order to determine the annual saving we must divide the extra cost of the hybrid by the amount of years it takes to recoup our investment.
annual savings = $4,180 / 11 years = $380 per year
our initial investment = -$4,180
since we are going to use the car during 15 years, then we have 15 positive cash flows of $380
using a financial calculator or excel spreadsheet, the internal rate of return (IRR) on our investment = 4.15%
One of your customers is delinquent on his accounts payable balance. You’ve mutually agreed to a repayment schedule of $500 per month. You will charge 1.2 percent per month interest on the overdue balance.
If the current balance is $11,000, how long will it take for the account to be paid off? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
It will take approximately 25.70 months for the the account to be paid off.
Explanation:
Assuming the customer pays at the end of every month, the relevant formula to use is therefore the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * [{1 - [1 / (1 + r)]^n} / r] …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value or current balance = $11,000
P = Monthly repayment = $500
r = interest rate = 1.2%, or 0.012
n = number of months = ?
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:
11,000 = 500 * [{1 - [1 / (1 + 0.012)]^n} / 0.012]
11,000 / 500 = {1 - [1 / (1 + 0.012)]^n} / 0.012
22 * 0.012 = 1 - 0.988142292490119^n
0.264 = 1 - 0.988142292490119^n
0.988142292490119^n = 1 - 0.264
0.988142292490119^n = 0.736
Loglinearizing both sides, we have:
n * log (0.988142292490119) = log (0.736)
n = log (0.736) / log (0.988142292490119)
n = -0.133122185662501 / -0.00518051250378013
n = 25.70
Therefore, it will take approximately 25.70 months for the the account to be paid off.
Tri Fecta, a partnership, had revenues of $373,000 in its first year of operations. The partnership has not collected on $45,200 of its sales and still owes $38,700 on $170,000 of merchandise it purchased. There was no inventory on hand at the end of the year. The partnership paid $27,100 in salaries. The partners invested $41,000 in the business and $25,000 was borrowed on a five-year note. The partnership paid $2,250 in interest that was the amount owed for the year and paid $8,000 for a two-year insurance policy on the first day of business. Ignore income taxes. Compute the cash balance at the end of the first year for Tri Fecta.
Answer:
Cash balance = $225,150
Explanation:
Cash balance can be calculated by calculating the difference of cash inflows and cash outflows
Cash inflow
Investment $41,000
Borrowed $25,000
Cash collection(w) $327,800
Total Collection $393,800
Less:
Cash outflow
Merchandise(w) $131,300
Salaries paid $27,100
Interest paid $2,250
Insurance paid $8,000
Total cash paid $168,650
Cash Balance = Total Collection - Total Cash paid
Cash balance = $393,800 - $168,650
Cash balance = $225,150
Working
Cash collection = The partnership has not collected on $45,200 of its sales
Cash collection = Sales - 45,200
Cash collection = $373,000 - $45,200
Cash collection = $327,800
Merchandise = Tri Fecta still owes $38,700 on $170,000 of merchandise it purchased
Merchandise = $170,000 - $38,700
Merchandise = $131,300
Power Manufacturing recorded operating data for its shoe division for the year. Sales $1,500,000 Contribution margin 300,000 Controllable fixed costs 180,000 Average total operating assets 600,000 How much is controllable margin for the year
Answer:
Controllable margin for the year is $120,000.
Explanation:
Controllable margin refers to contribution margin minus controllable fixed costs. Controllable margin is usually employed to assess the performance of managers because all the costs that the profit center manager can control are included in the calculation of controllable margin.
Based on the explanation above, controllable margin for this question can therefore be calculated as follows:
Controllable margin = Contribution margin - Controllable fixed costs = $300,000 - $180,000 = $120,000
Therefore, controllable margin for the year is $120,000.
Use the information provided below to answer the following question (same for set of 5 questions). Nash began April with accounts receivable of $49,000 and a credit balance in Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts of $1,000. They made $500,000 in credit sales (sales on account) during April. Collections from customers totaled $493,003. One customer, frank Jones, could not pay his $1, 200 account receivable. On April 7, he negotiated to exchange his past-due account for a $1, 200, 4%, 90-day note receivable. Historically, 1% of credit sales have prove uncollectible. During April, 3375 of old accounts receivable were written off as uncollectible.
The necessary adjusting entry at April 30 would include:
a) Debit to Interest Receivable, $11, 84
b) Credit to Interest Payable, $48.00
c) Debit to Note Receivable, $3.02
d) Credit to Interest Revenue, $3.02
e) Both C and D.
Answer:
d) Credit to Interest Revenue, $3.02
Explanation:
beginning balance of accounts receivable $49,000
allowance for doubtful accounts $1,000
net credit sales $500,000
collections on accounts receivable $493,003
$6,997
Frank Jones:
Dr Notes receivable 1,200
Cr Accounts receivable 1,200
Write offs:
Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts 3,375
Cr Accounts receivable 3,375
the adjusting entry in this question refers to the notes payable from frank Jones:
we must determine the interest revenue for the month of April = $1,200 x 0.04 x (23 days/365 days) = $3.02
the journal entry should be:
April 30, accrued interest from notes receivable
Dr Interest receivable 3.02
Cr Interest revenue 3.02 ⇒ OPTION D
direct materials $34, direct labor $27, variable manufacturing overhead $15, fixed manufacturing overhead $43, variable selling and administrative expenses $20, and fixed selling and administrative expenses $28. Its desired ROI per unit is $31. Compute the markup percentage using absorption-cost pricing.
Answer:
Mark- up = 26.05%
Explanation:
Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e.g machine hours, labour hours e.t.c. Units are valued using full cost per unit
Full cost per unit= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + variable manufacturing overhead + fixed manufacturing overhead
Note that the selling and administrative expenses are period cost which are not to be considered as production cost, hence they are excluded.
Full cost per unit= 34 + 27 +15 +43 = 119
ROI per unit/profit per unit = 31
Mark- up under absorption costing is profit expressed as a percentage of of the full cost.
Mark- up = 31/119 × 100 = 26.05%
Mark- up = 26.05%

A company discarded a computer system originally purchased for $18,000. The accumulated depreciation was $17,200. The company should recognize a(an):
Answer:
The company should recognize a $800 loss.
Explanation:
Depreciation is the loss of value of an asset over its useful life, and because of the accrual principle, this depreciation is matched, as an expense, with the revenues that the asset produces in a specific period of time.
In this case, the company has expensed $17,200 over the computer system useful life. When the computer system was finally discarded, $800, representing the difference between the accumulated depreciation and the original cost of the system, where not expensed. For this reason, this $800 have to be recognized as a loss.
On July 9, Mifflin Company receives a $10,400, 90-day, 8% note from customer Payton Summers as payment on account. What entry should be made on July 9 to record receipt of the note
Answer: Debit Notes Receivable $10,400; credit Accounts Receivable $10,400.
Explanation:
Mifflin Company is receiving the note back from Payton Summers which means that Payton Summers intends to settle their account. The correct entry to record therefore is one that closes off the Notes Receivable account by debiting it as it was on a credit balance.
The other account would be the Accounts Receivable account which would need to be credited by the amount owed to close off the account as it was on a debit balance as Accounts Receivables are when customers are still owing.
Buhao Construction currently is all-equity-financed. It has 17,000 shares of equity outstanding, selling at $100 a share. The firm is considering a capital restructuring.

EPS $
c. What will EPS be if it borrows $420,000? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
EPS $
Answer:
Buhao Construction
a) Debt-to-Equity Ratio if it borrows $220,000
= Debit/Equity
= $220,000/$1,700,000
= 12.94%
b. EPS = $195,800/17,000
= $11.52
c. EPS = $173,800/17,000
= $10.22
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Outstanding Equity = 17,000 shares x $100 = $1,700,000
Interest rate = 11%
It is assumed that Buhao Construction pays no taxes
EBIT = $130,000
Debit = $220,000
Interest Expense = $24,200
Net Income = $195,800 ($220,000 - 24,200)
Debit = $420,000
Interest Expense = $46,200

The largest firm have sales of $10 million, the third largest firm has sales of $4 million, and the fourth largest firm has sales of $2 million. If fifth through tenth largest firms combined have annual sales of $12 million, the fourfirm concentration ratio for this industry is
Answer:
0.66
Explanation:
the fourfirm concentration ratio is the sum of the concentration ratio of the four largest firms in the industry.
The sales of the second largest firm = $35 million - ( $10 million + $4 million+ $2 million + $12 million ) = $7 million
concentration ratio of firm 1 = $10 million / $35 million = 0.29
concentration ratio of firm 2 = $7 million / $35 million = 0.2
concentration ratio of firm 3 = $4 million / $35 million = 0.11
concentration ratio of firm 4 = $2 million / $35 million = 0.06
Adding the ratios together = 0.66
Target ROI is 19% Invested Capital is $569,512 Full Cost per unit $1,124 Expected sales volume is 959 units. If the company prices each unit to earn the target ROI, what amount of profit would be added to the cost of each unit?
Answer:
The amount of profit to be added to the cost of each unit = $112.83
Explanation:
Profit is the difference between the selling price per unit and full cost per unit. To determine the the amount of profit to be added , we will divide the total return on invested capital by the number of units to be produced and sold. This is given below as follows:
Target return = ROI (%) × Invested capital
= 19% × 569,512 = 108,207.28
Profit per unit = Total return/Number of units
= $108,207.28 /959 units
= $112.83 per unit
Selling price per unit = Full cost per unit + profit per unit
= 1,124 + 112.83 = 1,237.66 (this is not required anyway)
The amount of profit to be added to the cost of each unit = $112.83
The amount of profit that would be added to the cost of each unit is $112.83 that should be come after calculating the target return.
Calculation of the amount of profit:Before that the following calculations need to be done
Target return = ROI (%) × Invested capital
= 19% × 569,512
= 108,207.28
Now
Profit per unit = Total return/Number of units
= $108,207.28 /959 units
= $112.83 per unit
hence, The amount of profit that would be added to the cost of each unit is $112.83.

A corporate bond pays 3% of its face value once per year. If this $4 comma 000 10-year bond sells now for $4 comma 450, what yield will be earned on this bond? Assume the bond will be redeemed at the end of 10 years for $4 comma 000.
Answer:
The answer is 1.76%
Explanation:
N(Number of periods) = 10 years
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = ?
PV(present value or market price) = $4,450
PMT( coupon payment) = $120 (7 percent x $4,000)
FV( Future value or par value) = $4,000.
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 10; PV = -4,450; PMT = 120; FV= 4,000;
CPT I/Y= 1.76
Therefore, the Yield-to-maturity of the bond is bond is 1.76%
10. Security X has expected return of 12% and standard deviation of 20%. Security Y has expected return of 15% and standard deviation of 27%. If the two securities have a correlation coefficient of 0.7, what is their covariance
Answer: 0.0378
Explanation:
The Covariance of securities refer to the relationship between two securities in terms of their movement together. A postie covariance means that securities usually move in the same direction while a negative means that they move in opposite directions. It can therefore be useful in portfolio diversification.
The formula is;
= Standard deviation of X * Standard deviation of Y * Correlation Coefficeint
= 20% * 27 * 0.7
= 0.0378
