Answer:
All receipts for petty cash A/c Dr. $382.50
Cash over and short A/c Dr. $5
To Cash A/c $387,50
(Being the replenish the petty cash fund is recorded)
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the total receipts and coins by using following formula:-
Total Receipts and Coin = Coins in Cash Fund + Currency Plus in Receipts = $62.50 + $382.50
= $445
Shortage of Petty Cash Account is
= Total Receipts and Coin - assume Custodian of a Petty Cash
= $445 - $450
= - $5
Journal Entry:-
All receipts for petty cash A/c Dr. $382.50
Cash over and short A/c Dr. $5
To Cash A/c $387,50
(Being the replenish the petty cash fund is recorded)
For recording this we debited the petty cash receipts as it increased the assets and credited the cash as it decreased the assets and the balancing is transferred to cash short and over

Giving the following information:
Boone Co.'s sales, based on experience, are 20% cash and 80% credit.
Credit sales are typically collected as follows:
40% in the month of sale
50% in the month after the sale
10% in the second month.
Sales:
On account December= 64,500 - 21,000= 43,500
Cash January= 107,000
Cash February= 127,000
We need to calculate the cash collected in February:
Cash collection:
From December= 43,500*0.1= 4,350
From January= (107,000*0.8)*0.5= 42,800
Cash From February= (127,000*0.2)= 25,400
On account February= (127,000*0.8)*0.4= 40,640
Total= $113,190
Which of the following is not correct?a. If the inflation rate exceeds the nominal interest rate, then the purchasing power of an interest-earning deposit falls over time.b. If there is deflation, then the purchasing power of an interest-earning deposit rises by more than the nominal interest rate over time.c. The higher the rate of inflation, the smaller the increase in the purchasing power of an interest-earning deposit.d. The purchasing power of an interest-earning deposit can increase or decrease over time, but it cannot stay the same.
Answer:
The options which is NOT correct is C.
Purchasing power does not increase with inrease in the rate of inflation. There is an inverse relationship between inflation and purchasing power of money.
Explanation:
Inflation refers to the overall increase in prices of goods and services and the erosion of the power of the currency to purchase those goods and services. In otherwords, when inflation happens, one requires more dollar bills to purchase same unit of goods or services.
Deflation is the opposite of inflation. It refers to the decrease in the prices of goods and services and is usually accompained by an increase in the purchasing power of the currency.
Nominal interest rate simply put is the interest payable on a loan without considering processing fees, compounding interest payable and the erosion of the value of such money.

Cowboy, Inc., an American corporation that produces cowboy hats contract with a manufacturing plant in France, Beret, Inc. The contract provides that Beret, Inc. will produce the cowboy hats in France to be distributed back in the United States by Cowboy, Inc. The contract does not provide which country’s law will apply if a dispute arises between Cowboy and Beret. Eventually, Cowboy discovers that Beret is not producing the hats under the specifications agreed upon in the contract. Which will American or French law be used in settling the dispute? Why?
Explanation:
When companies from different countries get into a contract, it is quite desirable that they stipulate which country's laws that they will abide by should the need arise.
However, if this is not done, there is still a method of enforcing. When not specifically listed, contract between companies from different countries falls under a branch of Private International law which is International Contract Law which is synonymous with International Sales law.
This law falls under the jurisdiction of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) which came into effect in January 1988.
Both France and the United States of America have ratified the law and so Cowboy Hats is free to take legal action within this framework if they so please.
Stone Company produces carrying cases for CDs. It has compiled the following information for the month of June: Physical Units Percent Complete for Conversion Beginning work in process 70,000 55% Ending work in process 92,000 70 Stone adds all materials at the beginning of its manufacturing process. During the month, it started 180,000 units. Required: 1. Using the weighted-average method, reconcile the number of physical units. 2. Using the weighted-average method, calculate the number of equivalent units.
Answer:
Required 1.
Reconciling the number of physical units
Inputs
Units in Opening Work In Process = 70,000
Units Started During the Period = 180,000
Totals = 250,000
Outputs
Units in Ending Work In Process = 92,000
Units Completed (Balancing Figure) = 158,000
Totals = 250,000
Required 2.
Direct Materials = 250,000 units, Conversion Costs = 222,400 units
Explanation:
Calculation of the number of equivalent units.
Direct Materials
These are added at beginning of manufacturing and are thus 100% complete for Ending Work In Process Units and Units Completed and Transferred to Finished Goods.
Ending Work In Process Units = 92,000
Transferred to Finished Goods = 158,000
Total = 250,000
Conversion
Are 100% in terms of Units Completed and Transferred to Finished Goods and 70% in terms of Ending Work In Process Units.
Ending Work In Process Units (92,000 × 70%) = 64,400
Transferred to Finished Goods (158,000 × 100%) = 158,000
Total = 222,400

The ambitious sprinkler system project was finally over and it was hard to believe that it took only two years. The project manager leaned back in his office chair and admired his emerald green lawn and flower garden that was filling in nicely He was amused by the birds that had gathered to bathe and drink at a persistent puddle just outside his window, a harbinger of the first major repair of his own shoddy workmanship. His review of receipts for the job was less entertaining; between trips to the local home improvement store, consultations with plumbers, city inspectors, and some hired labor, he had sunk a small fortune into his lawn. The manager's:_________
A) Historical records made for interesting reading.
B) Post-project analysis would someday appear in Better Housekeeping.
C) Financial closeout would be forever hidden from his wife.
D) Project plan was a document for the ages.
Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
In simple words, the given case relates to the indiscipline if work performed by a manager. The manager was completely unaware of the fact that he had sunk a good amount of money on the project that he is admiring a lot.
From the given case, we can estimate that the manager was also shocked for the first time after reading the receipt, therefore, he will definitely hide his financial reports from his wife or it would lead into a conflict.
Rich, Inc. acquired 30% of Doane Corporation's voting stock on January 1, 2018 for $1,000,000. During 2018, Doane earned $400,000 and paid dividends of $250,000. Rich's 30% interest in Doane gives Rich the ability to exercise significant influence over Doane's operating and financial policies. On January 1, 2019, Rich sold half of its stock in Doane for $660,000 cash.
a. What accounting should be made by Rich, Inc. for dividends received from Doane subsequent to the date of investment?
b. What amount should Rich include in its 2018 income statement as a result of the investment?
c. What should be the carrying amount of this investment reported on Rich's December 31, 2018 balance sheet?
d. What should be the gain on sale of this investment in Rich's 2019 income statement?
Answer: a) Reduce by $75,000
b) $120,000
c) $1,045,000
d) $137,500
Explanation:
a) Dividends reduce the investment amount by an investor in the business.
Rich owns 30% in stock so they are entitled to 30% in Dividends.
= 30% * 250,000
= $75,000
Rich's investment account should reduce by $75,000.
b) Doane Corporation earned $400,000 in earnings for the year 2018. Rich should include their share of this earnings in their income statement. Income also increases the investment account. As he owns 30%, they should include 30% of this in their statement.
= 30% * 400,000
= $120,000
c) The Carrying amount of an investment refers to what the investment is worth in the current period which is the end of 2018. Remember that dividends reduce the amount of the investment and income increases the amount.
The Carrying amount therefore is,
= Cost of Investment + Income attributed to Investment - Dividends
= 1,000,000 + 120,000 - 75,000
= $1,045,000
d) As the earnings and the cash dividends for the year 2019 re not available, assume that it is the same as 2018.
This will mean that the carrying value on July 1 will still be $1,045,000.
Rich sold half of their stake so half of the carrying value is
= 1,045,000/2
=$522,500
They sold it for $660,000 but it was worth $522,500. The Gain is therefore,
= 660,000 - 522,500
= $137,500

You are an entrepreneur starting a biotechnology firm. If your research is successful, the technology can be sold for $ 30$30 million. If your research is unsuccessful, it will be worth nothing. To fund your research, you need to raise $2.02.0 million. Investors are willing to provide you with $2.02.0 million in initial capital in exchange for 50 %50% of the unlevered equity in the firm. a. What is the total market value of the firm without leverage? b. Suppose you borrow $1.01.0 million. According to MM, what fraction of the firm's equity will you need to sell to raise the additional $1.01.0 million you need? c. What is the value of your share of the firm's equity in cases (a) and (b)? a. What is the total market value of the firm without leverage?
Answer:
a. What is the total market value of the firm without leverage?
= $2 million / 50% = $4 millionb. Suppose you borrow $1.0 million. According to MM, what fraction of the firm's equity will you need to sell to raise the additional $1.0 million you need?
= 33.33%c. What is the value of your share of the firm's equity in cases (a) and (b)?
a) = $4 x 50% = $2 millionb) = $2 millionExplanation:
if successful price = $30 million
if unsuccessful price = $0
investment required = $2 million
in exchange of 50% of the firm
if you borrow $1 million, you will have to give up 33.33% of the company in exchange for the other $1 million needed
= $1 / ($4 - $1) = $1 / $3 = 33%
according to Modigliani and Miller (MM), the value of a firm is determined by its profit.
Your firm needs a machine which costs $240,000, and requires $39,000 in maintenance for each year of its 7 year life. After 3 years, this machine will be replaced. The machine falls into the MACRS 7-year class life category. Assume a tax rate of 40% and a discount rate of 12%. If this machine can be sold for $24,000 at the end of year 7, what is the after tax salvage value
Answer:
The after tax salvage value would be of $18,681.6
Explanation:
In order to calculate the after tax salvage value we would have use and calculate the following formula:
After tax salvage value = selling price*(1-tax rate)+book value*tax rate
Book value = 8 year depreciation amount of 7 year MACR*purchase price
After tax salvage value = $24,000*(1-0.4)+$240,000*4.46/100*0.4
After tax salvage value = $18,681.6
The after tax salvage value would be of $18,681.6

The Fields Company has two manufacturing departments, forming and painting. The company uses the weighted-average method of process costing. At the beginning of the month, the forming department has 26,000 units in inventory, 70% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs. The beginning inventory cost of $62,100 consisted of $46,000 of direct material costs and $16,100 of conversion cost.
During the month, the forming department started 320,000 units. At the end of the month, the forming department had 32,000 units in ending inventory, 90% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion. Units completed in the forming department are transferred to the painting department.
Cost information for the forming department is as follows:
Beginning work in process inventory $ 62,100
Direct materials added during the month 1,393,760
Conversion added during the month 800,900
1. Calculate the equivalent units of production for the forming department. Direct Materials Conversion
2. Calculate the costs per equivalent unit of production for the forming department. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) EUP EUP Direct Materials Conversion
Answer:
1. Direct Materials = 342,800, Conversion = 326,800
2. Direct Materials = $4.20, Conversion = $2.50, Total = $6.70
Explanation:
Calculation of equivalent units of production for the forming department.
First Calculate the Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department.
Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 26,000 + 320,000 - 32,000 = 314,000
Direct Materials
Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 314,000
Units in Closing Work In Process (32,000 × 90%) = 28,800
Total Equivalent Units = 342,800
Conversion
Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 314,000
Units in Closing Work In Process (32,000 × 40%) = 12,800
Total Equivalent Units = 326,800
Calculation of the costs per equivalent unit of production for the forming department.
First calculate the costs incurred during the period for both Direct Materials and Conversion.
Direct Materials
Costs in Opening Work In Process = $46,000
Costs Added during the Period = $1,393,760
Total Costs = $1,439,760
Conversion
Costs in Opening Work In Process = $16,100
Costs Added during the Period = $800,900
Total Costs = $817,000
Then calculate the cost per equivalent unit of production for both Direct Materials and Conversion.
Cost per equivalent unit = Total Costs / Total Equivalent Units
Direct Materials ($1,439,760 / 342,800) = $4.20
Conversion ($817,000 / 326,800) = $2.50
Total = $6.70
A new factory manager was hired for a company that was experiencing slow production rates and lower production volumes than demanded by management. Uponinvestigation, the manager found that the workers were poorly motivated and not closely supervised. Midway through the quarter, an incentive program was initiated, and cash bonuses were given when workers hit their production targets. Within a short time, production output increased, but the bonuses had to be charged to the direct labor budget, and the manager was worried about the impact of these costs on operating income. This could produce a(n) ________.
A. unfavorable direct labor efficiency variance
B. unfavorable direct materials cost variance
C. unfavorable direct labor cost variance
D. unfavorable direct materials efficiency variance
Answer:
C. unfavorable direct labor cost variance
Explanation:
The payment of cash bonuses would result in an unfavorable direct labor cost variance
. The Direct labor cost variance is unfavorable if the actual cost per hour is higher than the standard cost which in this question is as a result of bonuses charged to the direct labor budget. In other word, the factory paid more per hour of labor than what it has estimated

Prepare the direct materials budget for January.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= 5,460 pounds of raw materials
Production:
January= 4,200 units
February= 6,000 units
5 pounds of raw materials are needed for each unit, and the estimated cost per pound is $6.
Management desires an ending inventory equal to 26% of next month’s materials requirements.
Direct material budget= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Direct material budget (in pounds):
Production= 4,200*5= 21,000
Desired ending inventory= (6,000*5)*0.26= 7,800
Beginning inventory= (5,460)
Total= 23,340
Total cost= 23,340*6= $140,040

b. expansionary fiscal or monetary policy will add significantly to real GDP will little effect on inflation.
c. expansionary fiscal or monetary policy will add little to real GDP but will increase inflation significantly.
d. contractionary fiscal or monetary policy will reduce inflation with little effect on real GDP.
Answer:
b. expansionary fiscal or monetary policy will add significantly to real GDP will little effect on inflation.
Explanation:
The Keynesian aggregate supply curve is mostly horizontal (flat) because a decline in aggregate demand will always result in a decline in aggregate production (supply). In other words, during a recession, companies are willing to supply (produce and sell) all the products and services that their consumers demand at a given price. Even if the price does not change, if aggregate demand decreases, aggregate supply will also decrease.
That is why Keynesian economists argue that governments must intervene during economic recessions.

Manley Co. manufactures office furniture. During the most productive month of the year, 5,000 desks were manufactured at a total cost of $87,000. In its slowest month, the company made 2,000 desks at a cost of $49,500. Using the high-low method of cost estimation, total fixed costs are:
Answer:
$24,500
Explanation:
For computing the total fixed cost first we have to determine the total fixed cost which is shown below:
Variable cost per desk = (Total high cost - total low cost) ÷ (High number of desk manufactured - low number of desk manufactured)
= ($87,000 - $49,500) ÷ (5,000 desks - 2,000 desks)
= $37,500 ÷ 3,000 desk
= $12.5
Now the fixed cost equal to
= Total high cost - (High number of desk × Variable cost per hour)
= $87,000 - (5,000 desks × $12.5)
= $87,000 - $62,500
= $24,500

When a customer uses a credit card, the bank that issued the card pays the seller immediately, and later, the bank recovers the money plus interest from the customer.
So this method allows for a faster collection of cash (basically immediatly) than if the seller granted the credit directly to the customer.
Credit cards also allow seller to increase sales volume because many people lack the cash necessary to pay down the full value of the purchase.

a. Seller does not have to decide who gets credit.
c. Seller receives the cash sooner than if credit is granted directly to the customers.

Serial Problem Business Solutions LO P4 Business Solutions sells upscale modular desk units and office chairs in the ratio of 3:2 (desk unit:chair). The selling prices are $1,310 per desk unit and $560 per chair. The variable costs are $810 per desk unit and $310 per chair. Fixed costs are $180,000. Required: 1. Compute the selling price per composite unit. 2. Compute the variable costs per composite unit. 3. Compute the break-even point in composite units. 4. Compute the number of units of each product that would be sold at the break-even point.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The selling prices are $1,310 per desk unit and $560 per chair. The variable costs are $810 per desk unit and $310 per chair. Fixed costs are $180,000.
The company sells 3 deks per 2 chairs.
Sales proportion:
Desks= 3/5= 0.6
Chairs= 2/5= 0.4
1) Selling price per composite unit= sales proportion*selling price
Selling price per composite unit= 0.6*1,310 + 0.4*560
Selling price per composite unit= $1,010
2) Variable cost per composite unit= sales proportion*unitary variable cost
Variable cost per composite unit= 0.6*810 + 0.4*310
Variable cost per composite unit= 610
3) Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin
Break-even point (units)= 180,000/ (1,010 - 610)
Break-even point (units)= 450 units
4) Number of units for each product:
Desks= 0.6*450= 270
Chairs= 0.4*450= 180
Dawn is a manager for a pet grooming shop. She has decided to engage in planning by creating goals for her employees. Dawn has created a plan to increase revenues at the store by setting goals for each employee to up-sell customers into dog pedicures and hair dyeing services, which bring in higher revenues than dog bathing and trimming. Which of the following are likely results of the plan that Dawn has created?
A. Dawn's employees work harder during their shifts
B. Dawn notices her employees staying past their shifts all month in order to meet their goals
C. The pet groomers become more efficient at bathing and trimming dogs so they have more time for dog pedicures and hair dyeing
D. After not hitting the revenue goals the first month, Dawn's employees stop trying to up-sell customers and just focus on bathing and trimming
Answer: A. Dawn's employees work harder during their shifts
B. Dawn notices her employees staying past their shifts all month in order to meet their goals
C. The pet groomers become more efficient at bathing and trimming dogs so they have more time for dog pedicures and hair dyeing
Explanation:
By setting goals for each employee, Dawn has given the employees a reason to work faster and hard so that they may be able to reach their targets.
They will most likely work harder during their shifts so that they make be able to upsell the dog pedicures and hair dying.
If they have not met their quotas she will also notice that they will be staying past the time they are supposed to just so they can meet the target for the day.
She will notice that they start doing dog trimming and bathing faster and more efficiently so that they may have time to convince and then to actually engage in pedicure and hair dying for the dogs.
The following information was drawn from the accounting records of Chapin Company. On January 1, Year 1, Chapin paid $56,000 cash to purchase a truck. The truck had a five-year useful life and a $6,000 salvage value. As of December 31, Year 1, Chapin Company had a $68,000 balance in its Accounts Receivable account and a zero balance in its Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account. Sales on account for Year 1 amounted to $320,000. Chapin estimates that 5 percent of credit sales will be uncollectible. Required a. Record the year-end adjusting entry for depreciation expense on the truck in T-accounts. b. Determine the book value of the truck that will appear on the December 31, Year 1, balance sheet. c. Record the year-end adjusting entry of uncollectible accounts expense. d. Determine the net realizable value of receivables that will appear on the December 31, Year 1, balance sheet.
Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
a)
The truck was bought for $56,000 and has a 5 year useful value after which it will have a salvage value of $6,000.
Depreciation can therefore be calculated as,
= ( Cost - Salvage) / Useful life
= (56,000 - 6,000) / 5
= $10,000
It will be depreciated at $10,000 per year.
Recording it will be,
DR Depreciation $10,000
CR Accumulated Depreciation (Truck) $10,000
(To record Depreciation expense to the year)
b) The Book Value is calculated as the Original Cost less the Accumulated Depreciation.
The Accumulated Depreciation so far being the first year is only $10,000.
The Book Value therefore is,
= 56,000 - 10,000
= $46,000
c) It is estimated that 5% of Credit Sales will be Uncollectible. This will go into the Uncollectible Account Balance. This is done to cater for the possibility that some people will not pay the money they owe so if they don't, it is simply taken from this account.
Sales are $320,000 and 5% are estimated Uncollectible.
This means that,
= 320,000 * 5%
= $16,000 will be recorded in the Uncollectible Account Balance
Recording it looks like,
DR Uncollectible Account Expense $16,000
CR Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $16,000
(To record Uncollectible Account Expense)
d) The Net Realizable Value of the Receivables will be Receivables less the Uncollectible Account Expense which will be removed to reflect the belief that some debtors will default.
Receivables are $68,000 and the Uncollectible Amount is $ 16,000.
Net Realizable Value = 68,000 - 16,000
Net Realizable Value = $52,000
1. A country’s national saving is 20% of its national income and it needs $4 worth of capital for producing $1 worth of goods and services on the average. The economic planners want the country to grow at the rate of 10% per annum and expect that there will be no shortage of labor in the growth process. Is this growth rate consistent with what you have learned from the Harrod Domar Model? If not, how can the planners make a plan to achieve a 10% growth rate?
Answer: No. The growth rate inconsistent with what was learned from the Harrod Domar Model.
Explanation:
The Harrod–Domar model is a model of economic growth that is used to explain the growth rate of an economy in terms of the level of capital and saving. The Harrod-Domar models assumes that a full-employment level of income exist and that there is no government interference in the economy.
Based on the question, the growth rate will be: = 20% ÷ 4= 5%.
To achieve a 10 % growth rate in the economy, the savings must either rise to 40% or capital output ratio drop to 2. For example, when growth rate rises to 40%, this will be= 40% ÷ 4 = 10%.
In terms of public offerings of bonds, what is an indenture? A) a list of the duties of a trust company representing the bondholders' interests B) a memorandum that must be produced to describe the details of a bond offering C) a formal contract that specifies a firm's obligations to the bondholders D) a schedule of the fees charged by an underwriting company
Answer:
C) a formal contract that specifies a firm's obligations to the bondholders.
Explanation:
In terms of public offerings of bonds, an indenture is a formal contract that specifies a firm's obligations to the bondholders. It is typically a legal and binding contract between a firm (bond issuer) and its bondholders, which provides detailed information on terms and clauses.
The indenture specifies the essential features of a bond, these includes callabilty of bonds, interest payments time, maturity date of the bond, interest calculation method etc.
Hence, in case there's a conflict between the bond issuer and the bondholders; the indenture would be the reference document to be used for conflict resolution.
