Answer:
6.83%
Explanation:
For the computation of WACC first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-
Step 1
Price = Dividend ÷ Cost of equity - Growth rate
= $40 = $0.25 ÷ (Cost of equity - 0.07)
Cost of equity = 7.625 %
Step 2
Cost of Debt
After cost of debt = Yield × (1 - Tax)
= 0.09 × ( 1 - 0.40)
= 5.40%
and finally,
WACC = (Cost of debt × Weight of debt) + (Cost of equity × Weight of equity)
= (5.40% × $20 ÷ $60) + (7.625% × $40 ÷ $60)
= 0.018 + 0.050833333
= 6.883333333
or
= 6.83%
Juhasz Corporation makes a product with the following standards for direct labor and variable overhead: Standard Quantity or HoursStandard Price or Rate Direct labor 0.40hours$29.00per hour Variable overhead 0.40hours$4.90per hour In August the company produced 8,800 units using 3,700 direct labor-hours. The actual variable overhead cost was $17,020. The company applies variable overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The variable overhead efficiency variance for August is:
Answer: -882
Explanation:
A variable overhead efficiency variance is simply defined as the actual labor hours less the budgeted labor hours which is then multiplied by the hourly rate for the standard variable overhead. It should be note that the standard variable overhead consist of the indirect labor costs like the security and the shop foreman.
Bases on the explanation above, the variable overhead efficiency will be:
= [(8800 × 0.40) - 3700] × 4.90
= -882
This is an unfavorable variance which means that the number of actual hours worked is more than the budgeted hours.

A noncancelable lease contains an option to purchase a leased asset at a price that is sufficiently lower than the asset's expected fair value so that the exercise of the option appears reasonably certain. The fair value of the asset exceeds the lessor's cost of the asset. Therefore, the lease will be accounted for by the lessor as a(n):________ a) Guaranteed lease. b) Financing lease. c) Operating lease. d) Sales-type lease.
Answer:
d) Sales-type lease.
Explanation:
A bargain purchase option is a non-cancelable lease that contains an option to purchase a leased asset at a price that is sufficiently lower than the asset's expected fair value so that the exercise of the option appears reasonably certain.
Hence, the fair value of the asset exceeds the lessor's cost of the asset. Therefore, the lease will be accounted for by the lessor as Sales-type lease.
A Sales-type lease is a type of capital lease that doesn't meet the criteria to be classified as operating and the lessor makes both interest income and a loss or profit on the transaction, thus causing the fair market value of the leased asset to exceed the lessor's cost to purchase the leased asset.
Additionally, in a sales-type lease, the lessor should ensure net investment, impairment, variable lease payment, interest income are accounted for before the commencement date of the lease.
RT Renovations is organized with two service departments (S1 and S2) and two production departments (P1 and P2). The company uses the step method to allocate service department costs, allocating from S1 to S2, P1, and P2 first. The cost accountant tells you that in November, $104,000 was allocated from S2 to P1 (including any cost allocated from S1 to S2). She also tells you that $54,000 was allocated from S1 to S2 in November.P1 used 25 percent of S2 services and P2 used 75 percent of S2 services in November. Finally, S2 used 40 percent of S1 services in November.Required:a. What are the total costs incurred by S1 in November? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)b. What are the total costs incurred by S2 (before any allocations) in November? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
a. $135,000
b. $362,000
Explanation:
a. The computation of the total costs incurred by S1 in November is shown below:
= costs assigned by S1 to S2 ÷ percentage of S1 services used by S2
= $54,000 ÷ 40%
= $135,000
b. The total cost incurred by S2 before any allocations is
= (costs assigned by S2 to P1 ÷ percentage of S2 services used by P1) - costs assigned from S1 to S2
= ($104,000 ÷ 25% - $54,000)
= $416,000 - $54,000
= $362,000
We have learned about four types of adjustments: (1) prepaid expenses, (2) unearned revenues, (3) accrued revenues, and (4) accrued expenses. With those concepts in mind, review the following scenario, As the book-keeper for your company you are required to create quarterly financial statements (Income Statement, Statement of Owner's Equity Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flows) in order to report on the financial activities of the company for the quarter (three months). It is now March 29th, and in preparation for creating the 1st quarter's financial statements (as of 3/31), you have called a meeting with the Dept. Managers for Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable to confirm deadlines that have to be met for recording March-related transactions. As the meeting starts the owner walks in - she sits quietly as you explain the deadlines, but as soon as you have finished she says "Well, for this quarter, if we have not paid March invoices by March 31, there is no need to record them in March. We can record/expense those invoices when we pay them in April or May." Required:
1. Do you agree with the owner, or, do you feel that an adjusting entry is necessary in the situation described? If so - which type of adjusting entry is needed?
2. Why is the adjustment necessary? (Refer to concepts in the chapter) In your post:
a) discuss the impact (understated or overstated) on the accounts affected if the adjustment is not made, and
b) explain how the adjustment affects the appropriate financial statements
3, Assume one of the unpaid invoices is for $2,000 in Advertising. Show the type of adjusting entry you would create.
Answer:
1. Do you agree with the owner, or, do you feel that an adjusting entry is necessary in the situation described? If so - which type of adjusting entry is needed?
She is wrong, because the accrual principle states that both revenues and expenses must be recognized during the periods that they actually occur, not when they are collected or paid for.2. Why is the adjustment necessary? (Refer to concepts in the chapter) In your post:
If you do not record accrued expenses, then you are understating first quarter expenses and overstating second quarter expenses.a) discuss the impact (understated or overstated) on the accounts affected if the adjustment is not made, and
March invoices represent costs and expenses associated to the activities carried out during March, and not recording them properly will result in net income being over stated during March (first quarter)and under stated during the second quarter.b) explain how the adjustment affects the appropriate financial statements
First quarter's net income will be over stated while second quarter's net income will be under stated.3, Assume one of the unpaid invoices is for $2,000 in Advertising. Show the type of adjusting entry you would create.

Explanation:
Consider a low-wage labor market. Workers in this market are not presently covered by the minimum wage, but the government is considering implementing such legislation. If implemented, this law would require employers in the market to pay workers a $5 hourly wage. Suppose all workers in the market are equally productive, the current market clearing wage rate is $4 per hour, and that at this market clearing wage there are 600 employed workers. Further suppose that under the minimum wage legislation, only 500 workers would be employed and 300 workers would be unemployed. Finally, assume that the market demand and supply curves are linear and that the market reservation wage, the lowest wage at which any worker in the market would be willing to work, is $2. Compute the dollar value of the impact of the policy on employers, workers, and society as a whole.
Answer:
the total impact of minimum wage on employers, workers, and society as a whole is -$150
Explanation:
From the information given ;
As a result of the increase in the wage they must pay; employers will lose surplus that relates to the area of a trapezoid resulting from the reduction in the size of the surplus triangle according to the demand curve of labor; In short, since the trapezoid is a parallelogram ; it could be thought to be as a rectangle with sides equal to the wage increase of ( $5 - $4) = $1
Also; the new employment level is $500
The triangle with a height equal to the wage increase is $1 with a base equal to the reduction in the number of workers demanded (600 - 500 = 100)
Summing up all two areas together;we get:
= (1)(500) + (1) (100/2)
= 500 + 50
= $550
The worker who remain in the market each gain a surplus equal to the amount of $1 increase in the wage that they receive.
Therefore; the total increase in surplus = (1)(500) = $500
The 100 workers who lose their job will definitely lose surplus.
If these worker are evenly distributed along the market supply curve between the market reservation wage of $2 and market equilibrium wage of $4.
Their average loss of surplus can be computed as:
= 1/2($4 - $2)
=0.5($2)
= $1
Thus; the total loss of surplus is :
= $100× $1
= $100
Thus , the total impact of minimum wage on employers, workers, and society as a whole is :
= $550 -$ 100 - $550
= -$150
A food truck operator originally produced hamburgers and hotdogs. To serve the tastes of their various customers, the hot dog vendor decides to start producing turkey dogs and ham sandwiches as well. Since the new products were introduced, average costs rose dramatically. The vendor is experiencing:__________.
a. Economies of scope
b. Diseconomies of scope
c. Economies of scale
d. Diseconomies of scale
Answer:
The correct answer is (b) Dis-economies of scope
Explanation:
Solution
Dis-economics of scope : This refers to a situation when the average cost of production is greater from the shared production of services than the average costs from the preceding independent production of the services.
The vendor here in this case is experiencing Dis-economics of scope.
A team has prepared and estimate for what it can get accomplished in a Sprint. The Product Owner has wanted more to get accomplished in the upcoming Sprint and wants the Team to take on an additional user story. What should the ScrumMaster do in response to this conflict?
Answer: ScrumMaster should ask the Product Owner which other User Story they would like to give up in exchange for the one they want to add for this upcoming Sprint.
Explanation:
The options to the question are:
a. ScrumMaster should replan the Product Backlog and propose better user stories to address in the Sprint.
b. ScrumMaster should ask the Product Owner which other User Story they would like to give up in exchange for the one they want to add for this upcoming Sprint.
c. Stay out of the way as this is not the ScrumMaster's job to resolve.
d. ScrumMaster should ask the team to take the story on and work overtime.
From the question, we are informed that a team has prepared an estimate for what it can get accomplished in a Sprint and that the Product Owner has wanted more to get accomplished in the upcoming Sprint and therefore wants the team to take on an additional user story.
The best way to tackle this conflict is for the ScrumMaster should ask the Product Owner which other User Story they would like to give up in exchange for the one they want to add for this upcoming Sprint. Since an estimate has already been prepared, taking an additional user story will bring about an overestimation. Therefore, to being the right track, the thing to do is to actually give up a user story for the new one to be added.
QS 11-6 Recording employer payroll taxes LO P3 Merger Co. has 10 employees, each of whom earns $1,550 per month and has been employed since January 1. FICA Social Security taxes are 6.2% of the first $128,400 paid to each employee, and FICA Medicare taxes are 1.45% of gross pay. FUTA taxes are 0.6% and SUTA taxes are 5.4% of the first $7,000 paid to each employee. Prepare the March 31 journal entry to record the March payroll taxes expenses. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
March 31, 202x, payroll tax expenses
Dr FICA tax (OASDI) expense 961
Dr FICA tax (Medicare) expense 224.75
Dr FUTA tax expense 93
Dr SUTA tax expense 837
Cr FICA tax (OASDI) payable 961
Cr FICA tax (Medicare) payable 224.75
Cr FUTA tax payable 93
Cr SUTA tax payable 837
Explanation:
Since we are calculating only payroll taxes, the wages expense is not included in this journal entry.
total payroll for the 10 employees = 10 x $1,550 = $15,500
each employee has accumulated earnings of $1,550 x 3 = $4,650
Using a LIFO perpetual cost flow, calculate the value of the ending inventory and the cost of goods sold for the month of November of Beamer Company using the data below.
Nov 1 Purchased 600 units $80 each
Nov 4 Sold 200 units
Nov 11 Purchased 350 units $82 each
Nov 12 Sold 275 units
Nov 22 Purchased 175 units $84 each
Nov 23 Sold 155 units
Calculate the following:
Inventory valuation at the end of November
Answer:
Ending inventory= $39,830
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Company using the data below.
Nov 1 Purchased 600 units $80 each
Nov 4 Sold 200 units
Nov 11 Purchased 350 units $82 each
Nov 12 Sold 275 units
Nov 22 Purchased 175 units $84 each
Nov 23 Sold 155 units
Under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, the ending inventory cost is calculated using the cost of the firsts units incorporated. Using the perpetual method, the company identifies the cost with each specific unit.
Ending inventory in units= total units - units sold= 495 units
COGS:
Nov 4= 200*80= 16,000
Nov 12= 275*82= 22,550
Nov 23= 155*84= 13,020
Ending inventory= 400*80 + 75*82 + 20*84= $39,830
Consider two ways to protect your car from theft. The Club is a conspicuous steering wheel lock that makes it difficult for a thief to take a car. Lojack is a secret tracking system that makes it easier for police to catch a thief who steals a car on which it is installed.
If a car thief encounters a car with the Club and a car without it, the car with the Club imposes a________externality on the car without the Club. A policy implication of this result is a______those who use the Club.
If a car thief encounters two cars without the Club, but the car thief fears a Lojack system might be installed in one of the cars, the car with the Lojack system imposes a_______externality on the other car. A policy implication of this result is a_______those who use the Lojack technology.
Answer and Explanation:
According to the given situation,
The car with the club enforces on the car without the club a negative externality if a robber experiences a car with the club and a car without them. A policy implication of that result is a tax on those who use the club.
If a car thief reaches two cars even without club, however the car thief is afraid to build a lojack system in one of cars, the car with the Lojakc system forces on the other car positive externality. A resulting policy consequence is a subsidy for those who use the Lojack system.

Evaluate the following investment options by comparing their risk and liquidity: buying a franchise real estate (buying property) mutual fund Which of the three investment alternatives is the best for you? Explain the reasons for your choice.
Answer:
Buying a franchise: For me, this is the riskiest investment, because the success of the business depends on the product or service it sells. If there is no demand for the product or service, the business will go under. This investment is also highly illiquid—in addition, finding someone willing to buy a business is difficult.
Mutual fund: This is the least risky of the three investment options. It is highly liquid compared to buying a franchise or real estate. Mutual fund investors can easily cash in their investments by selling the units they hold in a fund at the current market price.
Real estate: Real estate is a risky investment. First, property prices can fall in a depressed housing market. Second, real estate properties are illiquid. They can’t be sold quickly for a good price, especially in times of recession in the housing market or in the overall economy.
A mutual fund is the best of the three investment options for me, for the following reasons:
I can invest small amounts of money regularly and get higher returns on the investment than I would from a savings account. Also, this is a highly liquid investment. In case of a financial emergency, I can quickly sell my mutual fund units at their current market price.
Real estate is currently both a risky and illiquid investment, because of poor market conditions.
Buying a franchise is not a good option for me, because I don’t plan to go into business. In any case, I don’t have the money to make this investment.

The River Falls Company has two divisions. The Cutting Division prepares timber at its sawmills. The Coating Division prepares the cut lumber into finished wood for the furniture industry. No inventories exist in either division at the beginning of 20X5. During the year, the Cutting Division prepared 60,000 cords of wood at a cost of $720,000. All the lumber was transferred to the Coating Division, where additional operating costs of $5 per cord were incurred. The 600,000 boardfeet of finished wood were sold for $2,500,000.
Required:
a. Determine the operating income for each division if the transfer price from Cutting to Assembly is at cost - $11 a cord.
b. Determine the operating income for each division if the transfer price is $9 per cord.
c. Since the Cutting Division sells all of its wood internally to the Assembly Division, does the manager care what price is selected? Why? Should the Cutting Division be a cost center or a profit center under the circumstances?
Answer:
a) Operating income at the cost of $11 is $660,000
b) Operating income at the cost of $9 is $540,000
c) Yes, the manager care what price is selected. The Cutting Division be a cost center.

A company reported net income of $6 million. During the year the average number of common shares outstanding was 3 million. The price of a share of common stock at the end of the year was $5. There were 400,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding on average and no dividends were declared and the preferred stock is noncumulative. The Price/Earnings Ratio is approximately:
a. $0.40.b. $1.76.c. $1.86.d. $2.00.
Answer:
The correct answer is $2.5, but it is not included in the option.
Explanation:
Earning per share (EPS) = Net income / Average number of common shares outstanding = $6,000,000 / 3,000,000 = $2 per share
Common stock market price per share (MPS) = $5
Price/Earnings Ratio = MPS / EPS = $5 / $2 = $2.5
The correct answer is $2.5.

Asonia Co. will pay a dividend of $5.30, $9.40, $12.25, and $14.25 per share for each of the next four years, respectively. The company will then close its doors. If investors require a return of 9.8 percent on the company's stock, what is the stock price?
Answer:
$31.68
Explanation:
The computation of the stock price is shown below:
= Dividend for year 1 ÷ (1 + required return)^number of years + Dividend for year 2 ÷ (1 + required return)^ number of years + Dividend for year 3 ÷ (1 + required return)^ number of years + Dividend for year 4 ÷ (1 + required return)^ number of years
= $5.30 ÷ (1 + 9.8%) + $9.40 ÷ (1 + 9.8%)^2 + $12.25 ÷ (1 + 9.8%)^3 + $14.25 ÷ (1 + 9.8%)^4
= 4.82695810564663 + 7.79692170895252 + 9.25399090557962 + 9.80404969365523

Describe at least three exchange rate factors that are likely to attract foreign investors to a country's currency. Explain why these factors are attractive to foreign investors.
Answer: 1. High Interest
2. Low Government Debt
3. Political Stability
Explanation:
Foreign Investors are Investors and investors always like to invest where there are prospects of growth and profit.
High Interest Rates give them the opportunity to invest their money in a currency that will give them a great return because a country where there are high interest rates imparts this on its currency which causes it to rise in value thereby giving currency holders a capital gain.
Another factor is Government Debt. A country with high Government debt will typically be unable to raise funds through the bond market easily. This shortage of funds can lead to inflation which devalues currency causing foreign currency investors to flee.
Finally there is the Political Factor (other factors exist). A stable country politically stands a better chance of maintaining a higher value currency that one with lower political stability. This is because political Stability attracts investors and as more investments come into a country, this reflects in its currency by making it stronger which will attract foreign currency investors.

What changes in (a) the reserve ratio, (b) the discount rate, and (c) open-market operations would you recommend? Explain in each case how the change you advocate would affect commercial bank reserves, the money supply, interest rates, and aggregate demand. g
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Assuming an economy is experiencing a sharp and prolonged inflationary trend, I'll recommend the following changes:
a. Reserve ratio: I will increase the reserve ratio.
b. Discount rate: I will increase the discount rate.
c. Open market operations: I will recommend tightening the money supply through the selling of more government bonds.
2a. The reserve requirement is the central bank regulation which sets the minimum amount of reserves which must be held by a commercial bank. An increase in the reserve ratio will lead to less money in circulation.
b. the money supply: Thhe money supply will contract i.e tighten
c. Interest rates: Interest rates will rise leading to an increase in the investments which keeps money out of circulation and also lead to a decrease in inflation rates.
d. Aggregate demand. Aggregate demand would reduce, and this would lead to a reduction in inflation.

In September 2000 the Pullman Group arranged a bond issue for the estate of the late Marvin Gaye. The collateral on the bonds (and source of cash flow for interest and principal payments) consisted of future royalties from classic songs such as "What's Going On," and "I Heard It Though The Grapevine." The bond issue had a $1,000 face value and a coupon rate of 5%. If the bond matures in 26 years, pays semiannual coupons, and the yield to maturity is 6%, what will the bond sell for
Answer:
The bond will sell for the amount of $869.17
Explanation:
According to the given data coupon amount = 50/2 = 25
Therefore, in order to calculate the selling price of the bond we would have to make the following calculation:
selling price of the bond = 25 * PVIFA(3%,52) + 1,000 * PVIF(3%,52)
selling price of the bond= 25 * 26.1662 + 1,000 * 0.2150
selling price of the bond= $869.17
The bond will sell for the amount of $869.17
The bond will sell for $869.17, if the bond matures in 26 years, pays semiannual coupons, and the yield to maturity is 6%.
What is the present value of annuity factor?PVIFA is an abbreviation of the Present Value Interest Factor of Annuity. It is an idea based on the time value of money; the money you have now is worth more than the same amount of money a few years from now.
As per the given information:
[tex]\rm\,By \;the \; amount \;of \;coupon \;data \; provided \; = \dfrac{50}{2} = \$25[/tex]
Therefore, in order to calculate the selling price of a bond we will need to do the following calculations:
[tex]\rm\,Bond \; sale \;price = 25 \times PVIFA (3\%, 52) + 1,000 \times PVIF (3\%, 52)\\\\Bond sale price = 25 \times 26.1662 + 1,000 \times 0.2150\\\\ Bond sale price = \$869.17[/tex]
Hence, the bond will sell for $869.17
