You would like to have extra spending money, so you decide to work part time at the local gym. The job pays you $15 per hour and you work 20 hours per week. Your employer withholds 10% of your gross pay for federal taxes, 7.65% for FICA taxes and 3% for state taxes.
a. What is your weekly gross pay?
b. How much is withheld per week for federal tax?
c. How much is withheld per week for FICA taxes?
d. How much is withheld per week for state taxes?
e. What is your weekly net pay?
f. What percentage of your gross net pay is withheld for taxes?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Gross Pay 300 dollar

Federal Income Tax $ 30

FICA $ 22.95

SUTA $ 9

Net Pay: 238.05

As a percentage of gross pay: 79.35%

Explanation:

Gross pay:

20 hours x $15 each = $ 300

Taxes:

income tax: 300 x 10% = 30

FICA 300 x 7.65% = 22.95

SUTA taxes 300 x 3% = 9

Net pay 300 - 30 - 22.95 - 9 = 238.05

Net pay as a percentage of gross pay:

238.05 / 300 = 0.7935 = 79.35%

Answers

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance = $1,000

Direct labor time variance =  $224

Explanation:

Calculation of the direct materials quantity

Direct material quantity variance = Actual quantity at standard price - Standard Quantity at standard price

Direct material quantity variance = $33,400 - (($36,000/24,000) * 21,600

Direct material quantity variance = $$33,400 - ($1.5 * $21,600)

Direct material quantity variance = $33,400 - $32,400

Direct material quantity variance = $1,000

Calculation of direct labor time variances

Direct labor time variance = Actual labor time at standard cost - Standard labor time at standard cost

Direct labor time variance = $8,000- (($8,640/24,000) * $21,600

Direct labor time variance = $8,000 - (0.36) * $21,600

Direct labor time variance = $8,000 - $7,776

Direct labor time variance =  $224

Exercise D Viking Corporation is operating at 80% of capacity, which means it produces 8,000 units. Variable cost is $100 per unit. Wholesaler Y offers to buy 2,000 additional units at $120 per unit. Wholesaler Z proposes to buy 1,500 additional units at $140 per unit. Which offer, if either, should Viking Corporation accept

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The variable cost is $100 per unit.

Wholesaler Y offers to buy 2,000 additional units at $120 per unit.

Wholesaler Z proposes to buy 1,500 additional units at $140 per unit.

We need to choose the best alternative, in this case, the one with the higher increase in income:

Effect on income= total contribution margin

Wholesaler Y:

Effect on income= 2,000*(120 - 100)= $40,000 increase

Wholesaler Z:

Effect on income= 1,500*(140 - 100)= $60,000 increase

The best option is to sell the units to Wholesaler Z. If Wholesaler Y accepts, you can still sell 500 more units.

A 20-year maturity bond with par value $1,000 makes semiannual coupon payments at a coupon rate of 8%. Find the bond equivalent and effective annual yield to maturity of the bond if the bond price is $950. (Round your intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The bond equivalent yield to maturity = 8.52%

The effective annual yield to maturity of the bond = 8.71%

Explanation:

Here, we start with calculating the yield to maturity YTM using the financial calculator

To find the YTM, we need to put the following values in the financial calculator:

N = 20*2 = 40;

PV = -950;

PMT = [8%/2]*1000 = 40;

FV = 1000;

Press CPT, then I/Y, which gives us 4.26

So, Periodic Rate = 4.26%

Bond equivalent yield = Periodic Rate * No. of compounding periods in a year

= 4.26% * 2 = 8.52%

effective annual yield rate = [1 + Periodic Rate]^(No. of compounding periods in a year) - 1

= [1 + 0.0426]^2 - 1 = 1.0871 - 1 = 0.0871, or 8.71%

When using the cost of production report to analyze the change in direct materials cost per equivalent unit compared to conversion cost per equivalent unit, an investigation may reveal that direct materials costs:_____.

b. will never increase due to the way the cost is calculated.
c. may increase or decrease between periods, depending on the fluctuation of the cost of the direct materials.
d. will only increase if conversion costs increase as well.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: May increase or decrease between periods, depending on the fluctuation of the cost of the direct materials.

Explanation:

To begin with, in the field of business a manager or an account would perfectly know that when using the cost of production report with the purpose to analyze the change in direct materials costs per equivalent unit compared to conversion cost per unit the investigation will reveal that the direct material costs may increase or decrease between periods, depending on the fluctuation of the cost of those materials due to the fact that the fluctuation mentioned will arise if the company starts using more direct material in the production so that means that the volumen will increase as well as the costs of it

On November 1, Alan Company signed a 120-day, 10% note payable, with a face value of $27,000. What is the maturity value of the note on March 1

Answers

Answer: $27,900

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that on November 1, Alan Company signed a 120-day, 10% note payable, with a face value of $27,000.

The maturity value of the note on the note on March 1 will be the face value plus the interest. This will be:

= $27,000 + [($27,000 × 10%)/360 × 120]

= $27,000 + [($2700/360) × 120]

= $27,000 + ($7.5 × 120)

= $27,000 + $900

Answers

Answer:

1. a. Average Tax rate =  130/2,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = (130 - 0)/ (2,000 - 0) = 6.5%

b. Average Tax rate =  650/10,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = [tex]\frac{650-130}{10,000-2,000}[/tex] = 6.5%

c.  Average Tax rate =  1,300/20,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = [tex]\frac{1,300-650}{20,000-10,000}[/tex] = 6.5%

d.  Average Tax rate =  6,500/100,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = [tex]\frac{6,500-1,300}{100,000-20,000}[/tex] = 6.5%

2. The tax rates shown in this table are: Proportional

Proportional Taxes take the same percentage of income across all income groups.

3. A. True

4. Sean and Bob would both vote yes as the Marginal Benefit of the project exceeds their marginal cost but project will not be funded in the end as the Total Marginal Cost exceeds Total Marginal benefit. Sean and Bob may want to pay but Yvette will not.

5. If this same project were taking place in the private sector, a firm would not fund the project.

6. In private markets, decisions to provide goods or services to the market are generally made if marginal benefits exceed marginal costs

7. As a result, governments may approve projects whose costs exceed their benefits.

Cobe Company has already manufactured 23,000 units of Product A at a cost of $25 per unit. The 23,000 units can be sold at this stage for $420.000. Alternatively, the units can be further processed at a $280.000 total additional cost and be converted into 6.000 units of Product B and 11,900 units of Product C. Per unit selling price for Product B is $106 and for Product C is $52.
Required:
Prepare an analysis that shows whether the 23,000 units of Product A should be processed further or not.

Answers

Answer:

It is more profitable to continue processing the units.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Product A:

Units= 23,000

Selling price= $420,000

Continue processing:

Product B= 6,000 units sold for $106 each

Product C= 11,900 units sold for $52 each

Total cost= $280,000

We need to calculate the effect on the income of both options and choose the most profitable one. We will not take into account the first costs of Product A because they are irrelevant.

Option 1:

Effect on income= $420,000

Option 2:

Effect on income= (6,000*106) + (11,900*52) - 280,000

Effect on income= $974,800

It is more profitable to continue processing the units.

A stock has an expected return of 13 percent, the risk-free rate is 4.1 percent, and the market risk premium is 5.3 percent. What is the stock's beta?

Answers

Answer:

Stock Beta = 1.68

Explanation:

The expected return on stock can be estimate using te capital asset pricing model (CAPM).

The capital pricing model establishes the relationship between expected return from a stock and its systematic risk . The systematic risk is that which affects all players (businesses and firms) in the entire market, such risks are occasioned by changes in interest rate, exchange rate e.t.c

According to the model , the expected return is computed as follows

E(r) = Rf + β(Rm-Rf)

Rf- risk -free rate, Rm-Rf - market premium ,  β- beta

DATA:

E(r) = 13%, Rm-Rf = 5.3 , risk-free rate- 4.1%, β?

Applying this model, we have

13% = 4.1% + β× (5.3%)

0.13 = 0.041 + 0.053β

Collecting like terms

0.053β= 0.13 - 0.041

divide both sides by 0.053

β=  (0.13 - 0.041)/0.053

β = 1.679

Stock Beta = 1.68

True or False: All other things being equal, firms exhibiting high degrees of operating leverage exhibit lower levels of business risk. This statement is: True False

Answers

Answer: False

Explanation:

Operating Leverage is used to measure how much a change in sales translates to a change in income. In general, a higher operating leverage means that a small change in sales leads to a higher change in income. This is quite risky because it shows that even a small error when forecasting sales can lead to a larger error in the cash flow that will be expected from the sales. This makes forecasting harder and increases business risk.

In order to prepare a CVP income statement we must first determine the total variable and total fixed costs. It is very similar to a variable costing income statement.

For much of the 1990s, the U.S. economy was experiencing long-run economic growth, low unemployment, and a stable inflation rate. Which of the following would give rise to these outcomes?
A. an increase in aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply
B. a decrease in aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply
C. a decrease in aggregate demand and an increase in short-run aggregate supply
D. an increase in aggregate demand and a decrease in short-run ag

Answers

Answer: . an increase in aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that during the 1990s, the economy of the United States was experiencing long-run economic growth, low unemployment, and a stable inflation rate.

The reason for this is due to an increase in aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply. This two factors will lead to the long run economic growth which the United States experienced.

The city of New Orleans has 200 advertising companies, 199 of which employ designers of normal ability at a salary of $100,000 a year. The firms that employ designers of normal ability each collect $400,000 in revenue a year, which is just enough to ensure that each earns exactly a normal profit. However, the 200th company employs Janus Jacobs, an unusually talented designer. Because of Jacobs's talent, this company collects $1,000,000 in revenue a year.

Required:
a. How much will Jacobs earn?
b. What proportion of his annual salary will be economic rent?
c. Will the advertising company for which Jacobs works be able to earn an economic profit?

Answers

Answer:

a. $700,000

b. 6/7 or 85.7%

c. No they will not.

Explanation:

a. Jacobs will earn the normal salary that the other designers in the other companies are getting in addition to the incremental income he brings to the company as a result of his talents.

Incremental income = Revenue with Jacobs - Revenue without Jacobs

= 1,000,000 - 400,000

= $600,000

Jacobs earnings = Normal designer earnings + incremental income

= 100,000 + 600,000

= $700,000

b. Economic rent is the excess amount that the company is paying Jacobs over what it should normally cost to get a designer.

Normal cost of designer is $100,000. Company is therefore paying an economic rent of $600,000.

Proportion of Jacobs salary that is economic rent = [tex]\frac{Economic rent}{Jacobs annual earning}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{600,000}{700,000}[/tex]

= 6/7 or 85.7%

c. The company hiring Jacobs will not be making an economic profit because for them to make an economic profit they would have to be making more than the $400,000 that the other firms make. They cannot make this amount because for them to do so they would have to reduce the amount they pay Jacobs. If they do so, Jacobs would leave for greener pastures and then they would be making the same $400,000 that the rest are making.

On January 1, you sold short one round lot (that is, 100 shares) of Four Sisters stock at $21 per share. On March 1, a dividend of $2 per share was paid. On April 1, you covered the short sale by buying the stock at a price of $15 per share. You paid 50 cents per share in commissions for each transaction. What is the value of your account on April 1?

Answers

Answer:

The value of your account on April 1 is $300

Explanation:

Proceed from short sales

Sales proceed =     $2,100 ($21 * 100 shares)

Less Commission= $50 ($0.50 * 100 shares)

Proceeds =             $2,050

Dividend payment

= 100 shares * $2

=$200

Total Cost of buy back

Buy back= $1,500 ($15 * 100 shares)

Add commission= $50 ($0.50 * 100 shares)

Total cost =           $1,550

Value of Account on April 1

Proceed =                               $2,050

Less Dividend payment =      $200

Less Total cost of buy back= $1,550

Value of Account =                  $300

Therefore, the value of your account on April 1 is $300

A mutual fund sponsor has three different income funds, holding AAA rated debt securities with similar maturities. Assuming that the expense ratios for the funds are identical, which fund would have the lowest yield from investment income?

Answers

Answer: C. Municipal Bond Fund

Explanation:

Municipal Bonds would be the fund with the lowest yield from investment income. This is assuming they are all AAA rated debt securities with similar maturities. This is because Municipal bonds are tax exempt and not very risky so their yields will be quoted as less as they do not have to compensate investors on tax losses.

Corporate Bonds are the riskiest of the options given so they will have the highest yield as they have to compensate for both risk and taxes.

Government Bonds are considered very low when it comes to risk but they are taxed by the Federal Government so have higher yields to compensate for tax.

Consider the market for minivans (Some would describe a minivan as a family car). Looking at the two statements, which one is true and which one is false? Then again, are they both true or both false? Statement 1: People decide to have fewer children. The demand curve for minivans will shift to the right. Statement 2: The stock market crashes lowering people’s wealth (Hint: Minivan would be considered a normal good). The demand curve for minivans will shift to the right.

Answers

Answer:

both statements are false

Explanation:

if People decide to have fewer children, there would be less demand for minivans as a result the demand curve would shift to the left.

also, if The stock market crashes lowering people’s wealth and minivans are normal goods, the demand for minivans would fall and the demand curve would shift to the left.

A leftward shift signifies a fall in demand while a rightward shift signals a rise in demand

Normal goods are goods that are goods whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls

Answer:

Tiger Company

1. Accounts, Amounts, and Effects on the Accounting Equation:

Date        Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity

Jan. 3      Inventory $31,000 increased = Accounts Payable $31,000 increased + Stockholders' Equity

Jan. 27    Cash $31,000 decreased = Accounts Payable $31,000 decreased + Stockholders' Equity.

Apr. 1      Cash $87,000 increased = Notes Payable $87,000 increased + Stockholders' Equity

June 13   Inventory $9,400 increased = Accounts Payable $9,400 increased + Stockholders' Equity

July 25   Cash $9,400 decreased = Accounts Payable $9,400 decreased + Stockholders' Equity.

Aug. 1     Cash $9,400 increased = Liability + Rent Revenue (Retained Earnings) $9,400 increased.

Dec. 31   Assets = Wages Payable $19,000 increased + Wages Expense (Retained Earnings) $19,000 decreased

Dec. 31   Assets = Interest Payable $1,305 increased + Interest Expense (Retained Earnings) $3,915 decreased

Dec. 31  Assets = Unearned Rent Revenue $3,525 increased + Rent Revenue (Retained Earnings) $3,525 decreased.

2. Indication of whether the debt-to-assets ratio is increased or decreased:

Date Effect Numerator Denominator

Jan. 3 Increased, Debt is increased, Assets are increased

Jan. 27 Decreased, Debt is decreased, and Assets are decreased

Apr. 1  Increased, Debt is increased, Assets are increased

June 13 Increased, Debt is increased, Assets are increased

July 25 Decreased, Debt is decreased, and Assets are decreased

Aug. 1 Increased, Debt is increased, Assets are increased

Dec. 31 Increased, Debt is increased, Assets are not affected.

Dec. 31 Increased, Debt is increased, Assets are not affected.

Dec. 31 Increased, Debt is increased, Assets are not affected.

Explanation:

The accounting equation indicates the balance that exists between the basic elements of accounting.  It states that Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity.  For every transaction, this equation holds true, because by the double entry system of bookkeeping, two or more accounts are always involved in every business transaction.

Centore Inc. has provided the following data for the month of June. There were no beginning inventories; consequently, the direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead applied listed below are all for the current month. Work In Process Finished Goods Cost of Goods Sold Total Direct materials $ 650 $ 7,590 $ 24,860 $ 33,100 Direct labor 2,180 20,700 67,800 90,680 Manufacturing overhead applied 930 7,130 22,940 31,000 Total $ 3,760 $ 35,420 $ 115,600 $ 154,780 Manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by $3,000. The company allocates any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead among work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold at the end of the month on the basis of the overhead applied during the month in those accounts. The work in process inventory at the end of June after allocation of any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead for the month is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

$3,833

Explanation:

The computation of the work in process inventory after allocating the underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead for the month is shown below:

But before that we need to compute the amount i.e added which is given below

Amount added is

= Total work in process × manufacturing overhead underapplied ÷ total cost

= $3,760 × $3,000 ÷$154,780

= $72.88

Now the amount of work in process inventory at the end of June is

= $3,760 + $72.88

= $3,833

If the Fed lowers the interest​ rate, then A. only consumption expenditure decreases. B. only investment decreases. C. consumption expenditure decreases and investment increases. D. net exports will increase. E. both consumption expenditure and investment decrease.

Answers

Answer: D. net exports will increase.

Explanation:

Lower interest rates decrease the value of a currency because less investors will invest in it. This reduced currency value will mean that exports will become cheaper as they are quoted in the domestic currency. As the exports are cheaper, more countries will buy them leading to an increase in Net exports.

June 27 Sale 8
June 29 Purchase 10 310 3,100
$ 15,040

Answers

Answer:

End inventory = $4,730

Cost of goods sold = $10,310

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided in the attached Microsoft word document before answering the question as follows:

a. Calculation of ending inventory

Number of units of Beginning inventory remaining unsold = 16 - 11 - 3 - 1 = 1 unit

Value of number of units Beginning inventory remaining unsold = 1 * $340 = $340

Number of units June 12 Purchase remaining unsold = 10 - 9 = 1 unit

Value of number of units June 12 Purchase remaining unsold = 1 * $330 = $330

Number of units of June 24 Purchase remaining unsold = 10 - 7 = 3 units

Value of number of June 24 Purchase remaining unsold = 3 * $320 = $960

Value of number of June 29 Purchase remaining unsold = 10 * $310 = $3,100

Therefore, End inventory is the addition of all the values of units remaining unsold as follows:

End inventory = $340 + $330 + $960 + $3,100 = $4,730

b. Calculation of cost of goods sold

June 7 cost of goods sold = 11 * $340 = $3,740

June 15 cost of goods sold = (3 * $340) + (9 * $330) = $3,990

June 27 cost of goods sold = (1 * $340) + (7 * $320) = $2,580

Cost of goods sold can therefore be calculated as follows:

Cost of goods sold = June 7 cost of goods sold + June 15 cost of goods sold + June 27 cost of goods sold = $3,740 + $3,990 + $2,580 = $10,310

Polly Smith, a supervisor at Kroger's, was recently evaluated by her subordinates. Their responses indicated that Polly uses Theory X assumptions when dealing with employees. For example, one of the comments indicated that she treats employees as if they:_______.
a. naturally like work.
b. will work toward goals they are committed to.
c. have little ambition.
d. have the potential to accomplish the organization's goals.
e. seek out and accept responsibility.

Answers

Answer:

c. have little ambition.

Explanation:

Theory X is a theory that refers to people's behavior at work and suggests that managers tend to think that people are not motivated and don't like to work, avoid responsibility, don't have ambition and because of that, they have to be rewarded or punished to complete their job. According to that, the answer is that for example, one of the comments indicated that she treats employees as if they have little ambition because theory X says that managers have a negative opinion of people.

The other options are not right because they all refer to theory Y in which managers tend to have a positive view of their workers and think that they like their work, are motivated and are willing to take responsibility.

Cheryl's marginal rate of substitution between apples and bananas is four apples for one banana. If apples are on the vertical axis and bananas are on the horizontal axis, the slope of Cheryl's indifference curve is

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: -4 (minus four).

Explanation:

To begin with, the concept of "Marginal Rate of Substitution" indicates how much of a good a consumer is willing to sacrifice to obtain a unit more of another good without changing the total satisfaction of the consumer. Therefore that this term is explained as the difference between one good and the other and that is why that the concept comprehends the slope of the indifference curve. That is why that if Cheryl's MRS of apples for banas is four then she is willing to sacrifice four apples for one banana and that indicates that the slope of the indiference curve is minus four (-4) because the result is always negative because it shows the sacrifice.

Calculate the earnings of workers A, B and C under the Straight Piece

Rate System and Merrick’s Differential Piece Rate System from the

following particulars.

Normal rate per hour: Rs. 5.40

Standard time per unit: 1 minute

Output per day is as follows.

Worker A – 390 units

Worker B – 450 units

Worker C – 600 units.

Working hours per day are 8

Answers

Answer:

Earnings of Workers:

                             Rates Systems

Worker  Straight Piece   Merrick's Differential Piece

A                $35.10                   $28.08

B                $40.50                  $32.40

C               $54.00                  $64.80

Explanation:

a) Data:

Normal rate per hour: Rs. 5.40

Standard time per unit: 1 minute

Output per day is as follows.

Worker A – 390 units  

Worker B – 450 units

Worker C – 600 units

Working hours per day are 8

b) Calculations:

i) Standard units per day = 8 x 60 minutes = 480 units

ii) Earnings per day is as follows.

Worker A – 390 units :

Straight piece Wages = 390 / 60 x $5.40 = $35.10

Merrick's Earnings = 390/60 x $5.40 x 0.8 = $28.08

Worker B – 450 units :

Straight piece Wages = 450 / 60 x $5.40 = $40.50

Merrick's Earnings = 450/60 x $5.40 x 0.8 = $32.40

Worker C – 600 units:

Straight piece Earnings = 600 / 60 x $5.40 = $54

Merrick's Earnings = 600/60 x $5.40 x 1.2 = $64.80

c) The factor for multiplying the rate is obtained by dividing the units produced by the number of minutes in an hour, in order to convert output to a rate based on the hour.

d) The standard output per day helps Merrick in calculating the weights to be assigned to each worker and differentiate the slow worker from the superior worker (hence, the name: Merrick's Differential Piece Rate).  The slow workers (those who produce below the standard output) are paid a rate lower than the standard rate by adding a weight of 0.8  as a punishment while the superior worker is assigned a weight of 1.20 as a reward for good performance.  Meanwhile, a standard performer who produced 480 units will be paid the normal rate or weighed as 1.0.
