On January 1, 2019, QRS Company granted 80,000 stock options to certain executives. The options may be exercised on or after December 31, 2022, and expire on January 1, 2026. Each option can be exercised to acquire one share of $1 par common stock for $5. The fair value of each options was estimated to be $3 on the grant date. What amount should QRS recognize as compensation expense for 2020
Answer:
The amount QRS should recognize as compensation expense for 2020 is $80,000.
Explanation:
NS = Number of shares granted as stock option = 80,000
FV = Fair value of the options on the date of grant = $3
N = Number of years from December 31, 2022 to January 1, 2026 = 3
Therefore, we have:
Total compensation expenses = NS * FV = 80,000 * $3 = $240,000
Amount QRS should recognize as compensation expense for 2020 = Total compensation expenses / n = $240,000 / 3 = $80,000
Bacchus Enterprises has $12B in book value of common stock selling at a book to market rate of 1.35 and a beta of 1.5. The combined preferred stock is valued at $8.5B with a beta of 1.23. The restructured debt has a book value of $4.8B in book value and has a coupon of 6%, maturing in 9 years, and selling at 102.5%. The market is doing quite well and is returning 14% with a risk free asset returning 4%. What is the Cost of Preferred Stock
Answer: 16.3%
Explanation:
Given the details in the question, the cost of preferred capital can be calculated using the CAPM method.
Cost of preferred stock using the Capital Asset Pricing Model is:
= Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - Risk free rate)
= 4% + 1.23 * (14% - 4%)
= 16.3%

Question
Frocks and gowns incorporated has two divisions day wear and night wear the day wear division has an investment base of $880,000 and produces (and sells) 134,,500 units of Collars at a market price of $12.20 per unit. Variable costs total $7.80 per unit, and fixed charges are $3.90 per unit (based on a capacity of 140,000 units). The Night Wear Division wants to purchase 27,000 units of Collars from The Day Wear Division. However, the Night Wear Division is only willing to pay $8.45 per unit.
What is the contribution margin for the Day Wear Division without the transfer to the Night Wear Division?
Answer:
The minimum transfer value = $305,200
Explanation:
The company current has an excess capacity of 140,000-134,500=5,500 units
These available quantities can sold at a minimum transfer price of $7.80.
However, the balance of 21,500 (i.e 27,000 minus 5,500) should be transferred at the market price of $12.20. This is so because there is an opportunity cost attached to units supplied which is the contribution to be earned if sold at the market price.
Hence, The 27,000 units should transferred at the value computed below:
$
First 5,500= $5,500× $7.80= 42,900
The balance of 21,500 × $12.20= 262,300
The total value 305,200
The minimum transfer value = $305,200

You are the manager of a local bank. Due to unstable financial conditions, savers are worried that your bank may fail. When they show up in large numbers to withdraw their savings, you find that you do not have enough cash to meet the obligations. Where can you turn for a loan if no other bank will lend to you? The stock market The bond markets The discount window The market for overnight loans
Answer:
The discount window
Explanation:
As we can see that there is a liquidity problem for the bank as it has not enough funds to payoff back to the depositors. Also No other bank is ready to lend.
The discount window would be the monetary policy instrument that controlled by the central bank in which it permits the institutions that they are eligible for borrow the money so that they could meet their shortage and this money would be lend for short term duration by the central bank
Therefore it is a discount window

The Iberia Tire Company has 3,000 tires in its inventory which are considered obsolete. Each tire originally cost the company $35 and the normal selling price was $45 per tire. Management is considering two options to reduce these inventory levels. Option one is to sell the tires directly to car dealerships for $30 per tire as opposed to the normal selling price of $45 per tire. The other option is to offer their current customers a $10 per tire rebate on their purchase. In addition to the $10 rebate, the program would cost the company approximately $24,000 to manage. They predict that either option will rid them completely of their excess The decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:_______
A. A $21,000 increase in profits.
B. A $9,000 increase in profits.
C. A $15,000 decrease in profits.
D. A $24,000 decrease in profits.
Answer:
B. A $9,000 increase in profits
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:
First step is to calculate the net selling prices for each group
Car dealership total price of sales = 3000 × 30 Car dealership total price of sales =$90,000
Current customers;
First step is to calculate the price of 1 tire
Price of 1 tire = $45 - $10 rebate
Price of 1 tire = $35
Total selling price = 35 × 3000
Total selling price= $105,000
Second step is to calculate net amount gotten from sales to customers
Net income= $105,000 - $24,000
Net income= $81,000
Now let calculate what the decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:
Decision to sell = 90,000 - 81,000
Decision to sell= $9,000 increase in profits
Therefore the decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:$9,000 increase in profits
Coronado Industries reported the following year-end information: Beginning work in process inventory $ 25000 Beginning raw materials inventory 9000 Ending work in process inventory 28000 Ending raw materials inventory 6000 Raw materials purchased 560000 Direct labor 210000 Manufacturing overhead 120000 How much is Coronado’s total cost of work in process for the year?
Answer:
$890,000
Explanation:
The computation of the total cost of work in process is shown below
But before that following calculations are needed
Cost of Raw material consumed = Beginning inventory + Raw material purchased - Closing inventory
= $9,000 + $560,000 - $6,000
= $563,000
And,
Cost of manufacturing = Cost of raw material consumed + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead
= $563,000 + $210,000 + $120,000
= $893,000
Now
Cost of work in progress = Beginning WIP inventory - Ending WIP inventory + Cost of manufacturing
= $25,000 - $28,000 + $893,000
= $890,000

Donkey Inc. has a fleet of 10 large trucks that cost a total of $1,410,000. The fleet is expected to be driven a total of 1,000,000 miles during its estimated 10-year life and be sold for $141,000 at the end of its useful life. If the fleet was driven 125,000 miles during the current year, what is the amount of depreciation that would be calculated using the straight-line and units-of-production methods, respectively
Answer:
$126,900
$125,000
Explanation:
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
( $1,410,000 - $141,000) / 10 = $126900
Activity method based on activity = (miles that year / total miles expected to be driven) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)
( $1,410,000 - $141,000) x ( 125,000 / 1,000,000) = 125,000

During the month of March, the company produced 1,650 cars.
Related production data for the month follows:
Actual materials purchased and used (tons) 6,650
Actual direct materials total cost $ 115,000
What is the direct materials quantity variance for the month?
A) $ 850 favorable
B) $ 850 unfavorable
C) $ 1,950 favorable
D) $ 1,950 unfavorable
Answer:
Direct material quantity variance= $850 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard tons of direct material (steel) per car 4
Standard cost per ton of steel $ 17.00
During March, the company produced 1,650 cars.
Actual materials purchased and used (tons) 6,650
To calculate the direct material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (4*1,650 - 6,650)*17
Direct material quantity variance= $850 unfavorable

Tamarisk, Inc. purchased a delivery truck for $29,200 on January 1, 2020. The truck has an expected salvage value of $2,200, and is expected to be driven 100,000 miles over its estimated useful life of 8 years. Actual miles driven were 16,100 in 2020 and 12,800 in 2021.
1. Calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.
2. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double- declining-balance method.
3. Prepare the journal entry to record 2020 depreciation.
4. Assume that Marigold uses the straight-line method. Show how the truck would be reported in the December 31, 2020, balance sheet.
Answer:
1. Depreciation expense per mile = $0.27 per mile
2-1. The straight-line method
We have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = $3,375
Depreciation expense for 2021 = $3,375
2-2. Units-of-activity method
We have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = $4,347
Depreciation expense for 2021 = $3,456
2-3. The double-declining-balance method
We have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = $7,300
Depreciation expense for 2021 = $5,475
3. See the journal entries below.
4. Net book value = $25,825
Explanation:
1. Calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.
Depreciation expense per mile = (Purchase price delivery truck - Expected salvage value) / Expected driven miles = ($29,200 - $2,200) / 100,000 = $0.27 per mile
2. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double- declining-balance method.
2-1. The straight-line method
Annual depreciation expense = (Purchase price of the delivery truck - Expected salvage value) / Estimated useful life = ($29,200 - $2,200) / 8 = $3,375
Therefore, we have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = Annual depreciation expense = $3,375
Depreciation expense for 2021 = Annual depreciation expense = $3,375
2-2. Units-of-activity method
Depreciable amount = Purchase price of the delivery truck - Expected salvage value = $29,200 - $2,200 = $27,000
Therefore, we have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = Depreciable amount * (Actual miles driven in 2020 / Expected driven miles) = $27,000 * (16,100 / 100,000) = $4,347
Depreciation expense for 2021 = Depreciable amount * (Actual miles driven in 2021 / Expected driven miles) = $27,000 * (12,800 / 100,000) = $3,456
2-3. The double-declining-balance method
Straight-line method depreciation rate = 1 / Estimated useful life = 1 / 8 = 0.1250, or 12.50%
Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = Straight-line method depreciation rate * 2 = 12.50% * 2 = 25%
Therefore, we have:
Depreciation expense for 2020 = Purchase price of the delivery truck * Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = $29,200 * 25% = $7,300
Depreciation expense for 2021 = (Purchase price of the delivery truck - Depreciation expense for 2020) * Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = ($29,200 - $7,300) * 25% = $5,475

Robert Company, which allocates overhead to production on the basis of machine hours, reported the following data for the period just ended:
Actual units produced: 12,000
Actual variable overhead incurred: $77,770
Actual machine hours worked: 18,800
Standard variable overhead cost per machine hour: $4.50
Robert estimates that it takes 1.5 hours to manufacture a completed unit.
Required:
Compute all standards & variances. Prepare all journal entries using standard costing.
Answer:
Variable overhead rate variance = Actual Variable overhead incurred - Actual Hours of Input, at Standard Rate
Variable overhead rate variance = ($4.5*18800 - $77,700)
Variable overhead rate variance = $6,900 Favorable
Variable overhead efficiency variance = Actual Hours of Input, at Standard Rate - Standard Hours allowed for Actual Output at Standard Rate
Variable overhead efficiency variance = (12000*1.5 - $18,800)*$4.5 =
Variable overhead efficiency variance = $3,600 Unfavorable
Variable overhead cost variance = Actual Variable overhead incurred - Standard Hours allowed for Actual Output at Standard Rate
Variable overhead cost variance = (12000*1.5*$4.5) - $77,700
Variable overhead cost variance = $3,300 Favorable
Imagine that two goods are available to you: servants (X) and robots (Y). You like servants three times as much as robots. If your domestic help budget is $4,000 per month, the price (wage) of servants is $1500 per person per month, and the price (rent) of robots is $400 per unit per month, what is the value of the MktRS (market rate of substitution)
Answer: 3
Explanation:
The marginal rate of substitution simply means the rate at which one good will be exchanged for another good based on the current market price.
Since you like servants three times as much as robots, this implies that the utility that one gets from one servant is exactly like the utility that will be gotten from three robots.
Therefore, the utility function will be:
U = 3X + Y
Then, the marginal rate of substitution will be:
= MUX/MUY
= 3
At the beginning of year 1, Kare Company initiated a quality improvement program. Considerable effort was expended over two years to reduce the number of defective units produced. By the end of the second year, reports from the production manager revealed that scrap and rework had both decreased. The president of the company was pleased to hear of the success but wanted some assessment of the financial impact of the improvements. To make this assessment, the following financial data were collected for the two years. Year 1 Year 2 Sales $ 10,000,000 $ 10,000,000 Scrap 400,000 300,000 Rework 600,000 400,000 Product inspection 100,000 125,000 Product warranty 800,000 600,000 Quality training 40,000 80,000 Materials inspection 60,000 40,000 Required: a. Classify the costs as prevention, appraisal, internal failure, and external failure. b-1. Compute total quality cost as a percentage of sales for each of the two years. b-2. By how much has profit increased because of quality improvements between Year 1 and Year 2
Answer:
a. The costs can be classified as follows:
Prevention: Quality training
Appraisal: Product inspection and Material inspection
Internal Failure: Scrap and rework
External Failure: Product Warranty
b-1. We have:
Total quality cost as a percentage of sales for Year 1 = 1.60%
Total quality cost as a percentage of sales for Year 2 = 1.65%
b-2. Profit has increased by $295,000 because of quality improvements between Year 1 and Year 2.
Explanation:
a. Classify the costs as prevention, appraisal, internal failure, and external failure.
The costs can be classified as follows:
Prevention: Quality training
Appraisal: Product inspection and Material inspection
Internal Failure: Scrap and rework
External Failure: Product Warranty
b-1. Compute total quality cost as a percentage of sales for each of the two years.
Total quality cost as a percentage of sales = ((Product inspection + Material inspection) / Sales) * 100 ………………. (1)
Using equation (1), we have:
Total quality cost as a percentage of sales for Year 1 = (($100,000 + $60,000) / 10,000,000) * 100 = 1.60%
Total quality cost as a percentage of sales for Year 2 = (($125,000 + $40,000) / 10,000,000) * 100 = 1.65%
b-2. By how much has profit increased because of quality improvements between Year 1 and Year 2?
To calculate the profit associated to quality, only costs associated to quality are deducted from Sales as follows:
Profit associated to quality = Sales - Scrap - Rework - Product inspection - Materials inspection ……… (1)
Using equation (1), we have:
Profit associated to quality for Year 1 = $10,000,000 - $400,000 - $600,000 - $100,000 - $60,000 = $8,840,000
Profit associated to quality for Year 2 = $10,000,000 - $300,000 - $400,000 - $125,000 - $40,000 = $9,135,000
Therefore, we have:
Increase in profit because of quality improvements = Profit associated to quality for Year 2 - Profit associated to quality for Year 1 = $9,135,000 - $8,840,000 = $295,000
Therefore, profit has increased by $295,000 because of quality improvements between Year 1 and Year 2.
Chester has negotiated a new labor contract for the next round that will affect the cost for their product Cozy. Labor costs will go from $1.76 to $2.26 per unit. Assume all period and variable costs as reported on Chester's Income Statement remain the same. If Chester were to pass on half the new labor costs to their customers, how many units of product Cozy would need to be sold next round to break even on the product
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
The above is an incomplete question. The concluding parts are assuming the following;
Selling price per unit = $54
Current total variable cost = $24.50
Total fixed cost = $69,000
New variable cost will increase by ($2.26 - $1.76)/2 = $0.25
New variable cost will be = ($24.50 + $0.25) = $24.75
Contribution margin = ($54 - $24.75) = $29.25
New fixed cost = ($0.25 × 2,339) + $69,000 = $69,585
Note:
Old break even units = $69,000/$29.5 = 2,335 units
Therefore,
New break even units
= Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit
= $69,585/$29.5
= 2,397 units
Cozy would have to sell 2,397 units as opposed to 2,335 units in order to break even.
A company purchased land for $82,000 cash. Commissions of $8,000, property taxes of $8,500, and title insurance of $2,200 were also incurred. The $8,500 in property taxes includes $5,400 in back taxes paid by the company on behalf of the seller and $3,100 due for the current year after the purchase date. For what amount should the company record the land
Answer:
the amount that company should record the land is $97,600
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that company should record the land is shown below:
The Amount should be recorded for land is
= Purchase price + Commission + Property tax paid on behalf of seller + Title insurance
= $82,000 + $8,000 + $5,400 + $2,200
= $97,600
hence, the amount that company should record the land is $97,600
A company had credit sales of $46,000 and cash sales of $18,000 during the month of May. Also during May, the company paid wages of $16,000 and utilities of $5800. It also received payments from customers on account totaling $15,800. At the beginning of May, the company had a cash balance of $25,000. What is the company's cash balance at the end of May
Answer:
the cash balance at the end of May is $37,000
Explanation:
The computation of the cash balance at the end of May is shown below:
= Opening cash balance + cash sales + received payment - paid wages - utilities
= $25,000 + $18,000 + $15,800 - $16,000 - $5,800
= $37,000
Hence, the cash balance at the end of May is $37,000
We simply applied the above formula to determine the cash balance at the end of May

When the sales department needs to hire more staff, the corporate skills inventory system was used to determine if any current employees had the skills needed for the new position. This is an example of :________. .
Answer: Internal recruiting
Explanation:
Internal recruiting is when an organization fills its vacancies from its existing workforce.
In this case, rather than looking for applicants to the position outside the company, the company fills the available position with some of its staff. On the other hand, external recruitment is when the position is filled by outsiders.
