Answer:
Ending inventory = $3,440; Cost of goods sold = $24,370; Sales revenue = $31,500; and Gross profit = $7,130.
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the represented question with the sorted data.
Explanation to the answer is now presented as follows:
Note: the attached excel for the calculation of calculation of Cost of goods available for sale, Cost of goods sold, and Ending inventory using FIFO.
First In, First Out (FIFO) can be described as an inventory accounting method in which inventory items that bought first are sold first, while the one that are bought last are the ones that are sold last.
In the attached excel file, since the inventory purchased on Oct. 6 is the one bought last, the number of unit of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 which are sold is calculated as follows:
by deducting the sum of the beginning
inventory and inventory purchased before Oct. 6 from the total inventory sold as follows:
Number of unit of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 that are sold = Total inventory sold – sum of the beginning inventory and inventory purchased before Oct. 6 = 450 - (60 + 140 + 210) = 4
The number of ending inventory is therefore calculated as follows:
Number of unit of ending inventory = Number of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 - Number of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 sold = 120 – 40 = 80
Sales revenue = Number of unit units of inventory sold for the entire year * Selling price per unit = 450 * $70 = $31,500
From the attached excel file, we have:
Cost of goods sold = $24,370
Ending inventory = $3,440
Therefore, we have:
Gross profit = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold = $31,500 - $24,370 = $7,130
A construction company entered into a fixed-price contract to build an office building for $20 million. Construction costs incurred during the first year were $6 million and estimated costs to complete at the end of the year were $9 million. The company recognizes revenue over time according to percentage of completion. How much revenue and gross profit or loss will appear in the company’s income statement in the first year of the contract? (Enter your answer in whole dollars.)
Answer:
$2 million or $2,000,000
Explanation:
The computation of the revenue and gross profit or loss will appear in the company’s income statement in the first year is shown below:
= revenue recognized - cost incurred
The Total cost is
= $6 + $9
= $15
And, the revenue recognized is
= $6 ÷ $15 × $20
= $8
So, the gross profit is
= $8 - $6
= $2
hence, the gross profit is $2 million
Old Time Savings Bank pays 3% interest on its savings accounts. If you deposit $3,000 in the bank and leave it there: (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) a. How much interest will you earn in the first year?
Answer:
Interest= $90
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment= $3,000
i= 3%
Number of periods= 1
First, we need to calculate the future value, using the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 3,000*1.03= $3,090
Now, the interest earned:
Interest= 3,090 - 3,000
Interest= $90
A bank estimates that their average balance on demand deposit accounts is $3,500, net of float. Each account costs the bank $250 per year in processing costs. The bank collects an average of $10 per month on each account in service charges. Assume reserve requirements are 10%. What is the net cost of an average demand deposit
Answer:
4.1%
Explanation:
Net cost of average demand deposit is computed as;
Net cost = (Non interest expense - Non interest income) / [Average balance × (1-RR)]
Annual non interest income= 12 × $10 = $120
Non interest expense = $250
Average balance = $3,500
RR = 10%
Therefore,
Net cost = ($250 - $120) / [$3,500 × (1-0.10)]
Net cost = $130 / $3,150
Net cost = 4.1%

What would be most likely to happen if the discount rate were raised?
A. Depositors would make a run on a bank.
thing
B. Banks would make fewer loans.
C. Creditors would refuse to pay back loans.
D. Banks would stop opening savings accounts.
Answer:
B. Banks would make fewer loans
Explanation:
The discount rate is the interest rate that commercial banks pay to the Federal Reserve for loans received. Banks usually borrow to cater to their short-term cash-flow requirements. The discount rate is higher than the inter bank rate or the fed funds rate(the rate that banks charge each other for loans).
An increase in the discount rate causes the inter bank rate to rise (the Fed controls both rates). It means commercial banks are borrowing money from the Fed and each other at a higher interest rate. Consequently, commercial banks charge a higher interest rate for loans advanced to customers. An increase in interest rates at the banks discourages customers from borrowing.

If the P/E ratio remains constant, what will the price of the securities be? (Use the rounded answer from part d and round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.) e-2. By how much, in terms of dollars, did the repurchase increase the stock price? (Use the rounded whole dollar answer from part e-1. A negative value should be indicated with a minus sign. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.) f. Has the stockholders' total wealth changed as a result of the stock repurchase as opposed to receiving the cash dividend? Yes No
Answer:
a. Compute the current price of the stock.
P/E ratio = 10
EPS = $5,000,000 / 2,000,000 stocks = $2.50 per stock
price = $2.50 x 10 = $25
b. If the $5 million is used to pay dividends, how much will dividends per share be?
$2.50, same as EPS
c. If the $5 million is used to repurchase shares in the market at a price of $30 per share, how many shares will be acquired?
$5,000,000 / $30 = 166,666.7 ≈ 166,667 stocks
d. What will the new earnings per share be?
outstanding stocks = 2,000,000 - 166,667 = 1,833,333
EPS = $5,000,000 / 1,833,333 = $2.73
e-1. If the P/E ratio remains constant, what will the price of the securities be?
price = $2.73 x 10 = $27.30
e-2. By how much, in terms of dollars, did the repurchase increase the stock price?
$27.30 - $25 = $2.30
f. Has the stockholders' total wealth changed as a result of the stock repurchase as opposed to receiving the cash dividend?
No
A buyer always wants to pay a price that is as _____ as possible, but never _____ than the buyer's willingness to pay.
Answer: low: higher
Explanation:
A buyer always wants to pay a price that is as low as possible, but never higher than the buyer's willingness to pay.
As a way to save costs, a buyer will always seek to pay the lowest price they can possibly pay for a good or service. This is why some buyers negotiate prices and seek trade discounts.
Buyers will however have in mind a maximum price that they would be willing to pay. This is called their willingness to pay and it is a threshold that they would not want to exceed. If a good's price is higher than their willingness to pay, they will not buy the good.
From 2015 to 2016, the overall price level rose from 200 to 220. Over the same period, tuition rates at the local community college rose from $100 to $115 per credit hour. What can be concluded from the rise in tuition relative to overall inflation. EXPLAIN your answer.a) Tuition rates increased at the same rate as inflation
b) Tuition rates increased at a slower pace than inflation
c) Tuition rates increased at a faster pace than inflation
d) Tuition rates and inflation cannot be compared with the numbers given
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Inflation is a persistent rise in general price level
Rise in Inflation rate = 220 / 200 - 1 = 10%
Rise in tuition fees = 115 / 100 - 1 = 15%
From the calculations, the percentage change in tuition fees is higher than the percentage change in inflation rate
At the end of a reporting period, a company determines that its ending inventory has a cost of $300,000 and a net realizable value of $230,000. What would be the effect(s) of the adjustment to write down inventory to net realizable value?
Answer:
1.Cost of Goods Sold Increase by $70,000
2.Gross Profit and Net Profit decrease by $70,000
3.Inventory in balance sheet decrease by $70,000
Explanation:
IAS 2 requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
In our case the inventory will be valued at net realizable value of $230,000 because this is lower.
The effect with this is :
1.Cost of Goods Sold Increase by $70,000
2.Gross Profit and Net Profit decrease by $70,000
3.Inventory in balance sheet decrease by $70,000
The balance sheet of Hidden Valley Farms reports total assets of $815,000 and $955,000 at the beginning and end of the year, respectively. The return on assets for the year is 15%. What is Hidden Valley's net income for the year
Answer:
$132,750
Explanation:
Calculation for Valley net income for the year
Net income=[815,000+955,000/2]*15%
Net income=(1,770,000/2)*15%
Net income=885,000*15%
Net income=$132,750
Therefore Valley net income for the year will be $132,750
Flyer Company has provided the following information prior to any year-end bad debt adjustment: Cash sales, $152,000 Credit sales, $452,000 Selling and administrative expenses, $112,000 Sales returns and allowances, $32,000 Gross profit, $492,000 Accounts receivable, $130,000 Sales discounts, $16,000 Allowance for doubtful accounts credit balance, $1,400 Flyer prepares an aging of accounts receivable and the result shows that 3% of accounts receivable is estimated to be uncollectible. How much is bad debt expense
Answer:
$2,500
Explanation:
The computation of bad debt expense is shown below:-
Total Bad Debt = $130,000 × 3%
= $3,900
Balance of allowance for doubtful accounts after Bad debt Expense = Total bad debt - Allowance for doubtful account credit balance
= $3,900 - $1,400
= $2,500
So, we have applied the above formula.
The same is to be considered

A company, which is currently operating at full capacity, has sales of $2,480, current assets of $820, current liabilities of $510, net fixed assets of $1,670, and a 5 percent profit margin. The company has no long-term debt and does not plan on acquiring any. The company does not pay any dividends. Sales are expected to increase by 10 percent next year. If all assets, short-term liabilities, and costs vary directly with sales, how much additional equity financing is required for next year
Answer:
$61.60
Explanation:
Equity funding need = Projected assets - Projected liabilities - Current equity - Projected increase in retained earnings
Equity funding need = $2,739 - $561 - $1,980 - $136.40
Equity funding need = $61.60
Workings
Projected assets = (Current assets + Fixed assets) * 1.10 = 820+1,670 * 1.10 = $2,739
Projected liabilities = Current liabilities * 1.10 = 510 * 1.10 = $561
Current equity = Current assets + Fixed assets - Current liabilities = 820 + 1,670 - 510 = $1,980
Projected increase in retained earnings = Sales*5% * 1.10 = $2,480*5% * 1.10 = 124*1.10 = $136.40
5. The Market Place recently offered 5,000 shares of stock for sale via a Dutch auction. The firm received bids as follows: 500 shares at $22.50; 2,500 shares at $22.20; 3,300 shares at $22; and 5,500 shares at $21. Ignoring all costs, how much will the firm receive from this auction
Answer:
$110,000
Explanation:
No of Shares Price Total number of shares
500 22.50 500
2500 22.20 3000
3300 22.00 6800
5500 21.00 12300
In Dutch auction, share are allotted from highest no. of share to lowest at the price where all the shares are taken. So in this case, highest number of shares are asked by Bidder D which is 5500 shares (available 5000 shares). The bidder will be getting shares at $22 because this is the price when all the shares were taken.
Hence, the amount the firm will receive from this auction = 5,000 *22 = $110,000

To fund your dream vacation, you plan to save $1,475 per year for the next 15 years starting one year from now. If you can earn an interest rate of 6.25%, how much will you have saved for your vacation?
Answer:
FV= $34,993.05
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Annual deposit= $1,475
Number of periods= 15 years
Interest rate= 6.25%
To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {1,475*[(1.0625^15) - 1]} / 0.0625
FV= $34,993.05

Answer:
$12
Explanation:
Moore Company purchased an item for inventory that cost $20 per unit and was priced to sell at $34. It was determined that the cost to sell is $22 per unit. Using the lower of cost or net realizable value rule, what amount should be?
Cost per Unit = $20
Sale per unit = $34
Disposal cost = $22
Net realizable value per unit = Sale per unit - Disposal cost
Net realizable value per unit = $34 - $22
Net realizable value per unit = $12
Using the LCM method, $12 should be reported on the balance sheet for inventory.

Charter Company, which uses the perpetual inventory method, purchases different letters for resale. Charter had a beginning inventory comprised of seven units at $4 per unit. The company purchased five units at $6 per unit in February, sold seven units in October, and purchased two units at $7 per unit in December. If Charter Company uses the LIFO method, what is the cost of its ending inventory
Answer:
Ending inventory cost= $34
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= 7 units for $4 per unit.
Purchased= 5 units for $6
Sold= 7 units
Purchased= 2 units for $7 each
Under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, the cost of ending inventory is calculated using the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory. The perpetual inventory system recognizes sales after it happens.
Ending inventory:
Beginning inventory= 7*4= 28
Purchased= 5*6= 30
Sold= (5*6) + (2*4)= (38)

Let us imagine that there is a country which displays the following statistics. C (Consumption) is one-half of GDP, and I (Investment) is one-sixth of GDP. G (Government expenditure) is $2000 larger than investment. The country has a trade deficit of $700. What is the country's GDP
Answer: $3903
Explanation:
The gross domestic product for a country is simply used to know the value of the goods and the services that are being produced in that particular country. It should be noted that the formula for calculating GDP = C+I+G+(X-M)
Based on the information given in the question, the answer is $3903.

Select all that apply What is the difference between an adjusted trial balance and an unadjusted trial balance? (Check all that apply.) Multiple select question. The adjusted trial balance is a list of accounts and their balances after adjusting entries have been posted. The unadjusted trial balance is more up to date and should be used to prepare financial statements. The adjusted trial balance is used to prepare financial statements. The adjusted trial balance generally has more accounts listed than the unadjusted trial balance.
Answer:
The adjusted trial balance is a list of accounts and their balances after adjusting entries have been posted.The adjusted trial balance is used to prepare financial statements. The adjusted trial balance generally has more accounts listed than the unadjusted trial balance.Explanation:
The Adjusted Trial balance lists the accounts that the company has at their ending balances which means that adjusting entries have been posted.
As a result of the Adjusted Trial Balance having final account balances, it is used to prepare the financial statements for the company as only final balances should be used in such.
More often than not, the Adjusted trial balance will have more accounts than the unadjusted balance because in process of adjustment, more accounts may be created for transactions that were not posted properly. For instance, there might be liability accounts for expenses if the expenses were not paid in the current period.
Wholemark is an Internet order business that sells one popular New Year greeting card once a year. The cost of the paper on which the card is printed is $0.40 per card, and the cost of printing is $0.10 per card. The company receives $3.75 per card sold. Since the cards have the current year printed on them, unsold cards have no salvage value. Their customers are from the four areas: Los Angeles, Santa Monica, Hollywood, and Pasadena. Based on past data, the number of customers from each of the four regions is normally distributed with mean 2,300 and standard deviation 200. (Assume these four are independent.)
What is the optimal production quantity for the card?
Answer:
≈ 9644 quantity of card
Explanation:
given data:
n = 4 regions/areas
mean demand = 2300
standard deviation = 200
cost of card (c) = $0.5
selling price (p) = $3.75
salvage value of card ( v ) = $ 0
The optimal production quantity for the card can be calculated using this formula below
= u + z (0.8667 ) * б
= 9200 + 1.110926 * 400
≈ 9644 quantity of card
First we have to find u
u = n * mean demand
= 4 * 2300 = 9200
next we find the value of Z
Z = ( [tex]\frac{p-c}{p-v}[/tex] )
= ( 3.75 - 0.5 ) / 3.75 = 0.8667
Z( 0.8667 ) = 1.110926 ( using excel formula : NORMSINV (0.8667 )
next we find б
б = 200[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex] = 400
What employment issue for flexible employees does the Walling v. A.H. Belo Corporation Supreme Court ruling address
Answer:
Fixed weekly pay
Explanation:
The Walling v. A.H. specified weekly salary for variable employees job challenge for flexible workers Ruling document of the Belo Company Supreme Court. Workers who work varying workweeks receive a set wage, irrespective about how many times per week may work. For starters, if they operated 35 or 40 hours, the employee should receive the same weekly wage. Therefore, the hourly wage of a salaried employee differs depending according to how many hours they work.
Each unit requires 4 hours of direct labor at a rate of $13 per hour. Variable factory overhead is budgeted to be 70% of direct labor cost, and fixed factory overhead is $179,000 per month. Prepare a factory overhead budget for August.
Answer:
Some numbers are missing, so I looked for similar questions and found the following:
Miami solar budgets production of 5,300 solar panels for August. Each unit requires 4 hours of direct labor at a rate of $13 per hour. Variable factory overhead is budgeted to be 70% of direct labor cost, and fixed factory overhead is $179,000 per month.
direct labor costs per unit = $13 x 4 = $52
variable overhead costs per unit = $52 x 70% = $36.40

The point that each glass of lemonade consumed on a hot day brings lower and lower levels of satisfaction is known as the principle of A. increasing opportunity cost. B. decreasing marginal price. C. total benefits. D. increasing marginal cost. E. decreasing marginal benefit.
Answer:
E. decreasing marginal benefit.
Explanation:
The law of diminishing marginal utility can be explained as whenever there is rise in the supply of particular goods/services, then the marginal utility falls. Utility in Economics can be regarded as Satisfaction derived from particular goods/services.
Therefore, in the case of the question, point that each glass of lemonade consumed on a hot day brings lower and lower levels of satisfaction is known as the principle
decreasing marginal benefit. Because as the consumption of the lemonade increases, marginal utility gotten from
every added units taken will start reducing like that.
