Answer: $40,396.20
Explanation:
This is a frequent amount every period so this is an annuity and the present value is the present value of an annuity.
Period = 2 * 4 years = 8 semi annums
Interest = 8%/2 = 4% per semi annum
Present Value = 6,000 * [tex]\frac{1 - (1 + 0.04) ^{-8} }{0.04}[/tex]
= 6,000 * 6.7327
= $40,396.20
Effect of Doubtful Accounts on Net IncomeDuring its first year of operations, Mack's Plumbing Supply Co. had sales of $630,000, wrote off $10,100 of accounts as uncollectible using the direct write-off method, and reported net income of $69,300. Determine what the net income would have been if the allowance method had been used, and the company estimated that 2.5% of sales would be uncollectible.
Answer:
Mack's Plumbing Supply Co.
Effect of Doubtful Accounts on Net Income
Mack's would have reduced the net income further by $5,650.
This implies that net income reported would have been $63,650 ($69,300 - $5,650).
Explanation:
Sales revenue = $630,000
Allowance method = 2.5% of sales as uncollectible.
Uncollectible Allowance = $15,750 ($630,000 * 2.5%)
Direct write-off method, uncollectible allowance = $10,100
Reported net income = $69,300
Effect on net income of using the allowance method = $63,650 ($69,300 - $15,750 + $10,100)
Managerial accounting information: Multiple Choice Is used mainly by external users. Involves gathering information about costs for planning and control decisions. Is generally the only accounting information available to managers. Can be used for control purposes but not for planning purposes. Has little to do with controlling costs.
Answer:
Involves gathering information about costs for planning and control decisions.
Explanation:
Managerial accounting is also cost called cost accounting. It is used by managers to efficiently manage a business enterprise by identifying, measuring, analysis, and interpretation of accounting information mainly for internal use.
External bodies do not use managerial accounting information.
Therefore the information gained is used by managers mainly to make planning and control decisions within the business.
If the alternatives are mutually exclusive and the MARR is 15% per year, the alternative to select is
Answer: Only Alternative B
Explanation:
As the alternatives are mutually exclusive, the alternative to select would be the one that is superior to all of the others and above MARR.
B, C and D all have rates of return higher than MARR so they will pass the first step.
When C is compared to B, it has an incremental return of 10% which is less than the MARR so C will be discarded as B is a better option.
Now compare B with D. When D is compared to B, it has an incremental return of 13% which is less than the MARR so B is again superior.
Alternative B should therefore be chosen as it is better than the other options.

Assume that two units are sold on May 23 for $313 total. Determine the gross profit for May and ending inventory on May 31 using (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, and (c) weighted average cost methods.
Answer:
(a) Gross profit for May = $360; and Ending inventory on May 31 = $142
(b) Gross profit for May = $348; and Ending inventory on May 31 = $130
(c) Gross profit for May = $354; and Ending inventory on May 31 = $136
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Three identical units of merchandise were purchased during May, as follows:
Date Magnesium XP Units Cost
May 3 Purchase 1 $130
10 Purchase 1 136
19 Purchase 1 142
Total 3 $408
Assume that two units are sold on May 23 for $313 total. Determine the gross profit for May and ending inventory on May 31 using (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, and (c) average cost methods. The perpetual inventory method is used.
The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:
(a) Determine the gross profit for May and ending inventory on May 31 using FIFO.
First In First Out (FIFO) refers to the inventory method under which the inventory purchased first is sold first.
Based on the above, we have:
Cost of goods sold = Cost of May 3 Purchases + Cost of May 10 Purchases = (1 * $130) + (1 * $136) = $130 + $136 = $266
Sales revenue = Units sold * Price per unit = 2 * $313 = $626
Gross profit for May = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold = $626 - $266 = $360
Ending inventory on May 31 = Cost of May 19 Purchases = 1 * $142 = $142
(b) Determine the gross profit for May and ending inventory on May 31 using LIFO.
Last In First Out (FIFO) refers to the inventory method under which the inventory purchased last is sold first.
Based on the above, we have:
Cost of goods sold = Cost of May 19 Purchases + Cost of May 10 Purchases = (1 * $142) + (1 * $136) = $142 + $136 = $278
Sales revenue = Units sold * Price per unit = 2 * $313 = $626
Gross profit for May = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold = $626 - $278 = $348
Ending inventory on May 31 = Cost of May 3 Purchases = 1 * $130 = $130
(c) Determine the gross profit for May and ending inventory on May 31 using average cost method.
Average cost method can be described as an inventory costing technique under which the average cost per unit is obtained by dividing the total cost of the goods available for sale by the total number of units available for sales.
Based on the above, we have:
Average cost per unit = $408 / 3 = $136
Cost of goods sold = Average cost per unit * Units sold = $136 * 2 = $272
Sales revenue = Units sold * Price per unit = 2 * $313 = $626
Gross profit for May = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold = $626 - $272 = $354
Ending inventory on May 31 = Average cost per unit * Units remaining unsold = $136 * 1 = $136

American Chemical Company manufactures a chemical compound that is sold for $52 per gallon. A new variant of the chemical has been discovered, and if the basic compound were processed into the new variant, the selling price would be $73 per gallon. American expects the market for the new compound variant to be 8,600 gallons initially and determines that processing costs to refine the basic compound into the new variant would be $146,200. Required: a. What would be the effect on total profit if American produces the new compound variant
Answer:
Effect on income= $34,400 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Actual price= $52
New variant price= $73
Number of units= 8,600 gallons
Total cost= $146,200
To calculate the effect on income, we need to use the following formula:
Effect on income= increase in income - total cost
Effect on income= 8,600*(73 - 52) - 146,200
Effect on income= $34,400 increase
You wish to buy a $27,500 car. The dealer offers you a 6-year loan with a 7.2 percent APR. What are the monthly payments?
Answer:
$471.49
Explanation:
The formula for computing the monthly payment is shown below:
PMT=P(r/n)/1-(1+r/n)^(-nt)
P=loan amount=$27,500
r=interest rate=7.2%
n=number of monthly payments in a year=12
t= duration of loan=6 years
PMT=27500*(7.2%/12)/(1-(1+7.2%/12)^(-6*12)
PMT=27500*0.6000% /(1-(1+0.6000%)^-72
PMT=165 /(1-0.650047943 )
PMT=$471.49

Mariota Industries has sales of $380,080 and costs of $178,290. The company paid $32,390 in interest and $14,500 in dividends. It also increased retained earnings by $69,626 during the year. Of the company's depreciation was $19,820, what was its average tax rate
Answer:
tax rate = 43.76%
Explanation:
Mariota's net income before taxes = $380,080 - $178,290 - $19,820 - $32,390 = $149,580
Mariota's net income after taxes = $69,626 + $14,500 = $84,126
$149,580 x (1 - tax rate) = $84,126
1 - tax rate = $84,126 / 149,580 = 0.5624
1 - tax rate = 0.5624
1 - 0.5624 = tax rate
tax rate = 0.4376 = 43.76%
A company has a DSO of 28 days. The company’s average daily sales are $4,000. What is the level of accounts receivable? Assume there are 365 days in a year.
Answer:
the level of accounts receivable is $112,000
Explanation:
The computation of the level of sales is shown below:
Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) = Accounts Receivable (A/R) ÷ Average Daily Sales
28 days = Account receivable ÷ $4,000
So, the account receivable is
= $4,000 × 28 days
= $112,000
Hence, the level of accounts receivable is $112,000
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

wesimann co. issed 11-year bonds a year ago at a coupon rate of 7.1% The bonds make semiannual payments and have a par value of 1,000. if the ytm on these bonds is 5.4%, what is the current bond price
Answer:
$1,130.04
Explanation:
The computation of the current bond price is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
Number of periods = 11 - 1 = 10 × 2 = 20
Rate = 5.4% ÷ 2 = 2.7%
Coupon = (7.1% of 1000) ÷ 2 = $35.5
Now
The Current bond price is
= Coupon × [1 - 1 ÷ (1 + r)^n] ÷ r + FV ÷ (1 + r)^n
= $35.5 × [1 - 1 ÷ (1 + 0.027)^20] ÷ 0.027 + $1,000 ÷ (1 + 0.027)^20
= $35.5 × [1 - 0.586937] ÷ 0.027 + $586.936514
= $35.5 × 15.29863 + $586.936514

On March 31 a company needed to estimate its ending inventory to prepare its first quarter financial statements. The following information is available: Beginning inventory, January 1: $4,200 Net sales: $71,000 Net purchases: $69,000 The company's gross margin ratio is 25%. Using the gross profit method, the estimated ending inventory value would be:
Answer:
$19,950
Explanation:
The formula for determining the estimated ending inventory value is given below:
estimated ending inventory value=cost of goods available for sale -cost of goods sold
cost of goods available for sale=beginning inventory+purchases
cost of goods available for sale=$4,200+$69,000=$73200
Cost of goods sold=net sales-(net sales*gross margin)
Cost of goods sold=$71000-($71000*25%)=$53250
estimated ending inventory value=$73200 -$53250 =$19,950
A buyer plans to buy designer bows at $15,000 cost with an average MU of 47%. The first purchase is for $4,500.00 at cost and $9,000.00 at retail. What must the markup on the balance of the purchases be in order to maintain the average MU percentage?
Answer:
24.29%
Explanation:
markup percentage = (selling price - cost per unit) / cost per unit
total markup:
0.47 = (total retail price - $15,000) / $15,000
$15,000 x 0.47 = total retail price - $15,000
$7,050 = total retail price - $15,000
total retail price = $22,050
the store already sells $9,000 worth of goods, so that means that $13,050 goods at retail price will be purchased
we repeat our formula, only that this time we will calculate the MU %:
MU % = ($13,050 - $10,500) / $10,500 = $2,550 / $10,500 = 0.2429 = 24.29%

Loaded-Up Fund charges a 12b-1 fee of 1.00% and maintains an expense ratio of 0.50%. Economy Fund charges a front-end load of 3.0%, but has no 12b-1 fee and an expense ratio of 0.25%. Assume the rate of return on both funds’ portfolios (before any fees) is 6% per year.
Required:
a. How much will an investment of $1,000 in each fund grow to after 1 year?
b. How much will an investment of $1,000 in each fund grow to after 2 year?
c. How much will an investment of $1,000 in each fund grow to after 11 year?
Answer:
a) $1025.8
b) $1084.8
c) $1794.1
Explanation:
The formula for this question is
End value of investment = I * (1 - f) * (1 + r - t)^T,
where
I = basic investment, $1000
f = front end load, 3% = 0.03
r = ratio, 6% = 0.06
t = true expense ratio, 0.25% = 0.0025
T = time of investment, 1, 2 and 11 years.
Now, applying the values to the formula, we have
End of Investment after 1 year =
1000 * (1 - 0.03) * (1 + 0.06 - 0.0025)¹ =
1000 * 0.97 * 1.0575 =
$1025.8
End of Investment after 2 years =
1000 * (1 - 0.03) * (1 + 0.06 - 0.0025)² =
1000 * 0.97 * 1.1183 =
$1084.8
End of Investment after 11 years =
1000 * (1 - 0.03) * (1 + 0.06 - 0.0025)¹¹ =
1000 * 0.97 * 1.8496 =
$1794.1

Vanilla Bean Restaurant is considering a project with an initial cost of $525,000. The project will not produce any cash flows for the first three years. Starting in year 4, the project will produce cash inflows of $721,000 a year for three years. This project is risky, so the firm has assigned it a discount rate of 16 percent. What is the project's net present value
Answer:
Vanilla Bean Restaurant
The project's net present value (NPV) is:
$511,798
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Initial project cost = $525,000 in year 1
Project's inflows in Year 4, 5, & 6 = $721,000 each
Discount rate = 16%
Present value of inflows:
Year 4 = $721,000 * 0.552 = $397,992
Year 5 = $721,000 * 0.476 = $343,196
Year 6 = $721,000 * 0.410 = $295,610
Total present value = $1,036,798
Therefore, the NPV = $511,798 ($1,036,798 - $525,000). The present value is the difference between the present value of the project's cash inflows and the present value of project's cash outflows during the project's life.
A friend tells you she has saved for 7 years and has a present sum of $10,000, which earned at the rate of 8% per year, compounded quarterly. Determine the equivalent amount she had to start with 7 years ago.
Answer:
$5750.1
Explanation:
The amount she started with can be referred to as present value (PV), while the amount sum she has after the 7 years is the future value (FV).
Thus:
FV = PV[tex](1 +\frac{r}{m}) ^{nm}[/tex]
From the question, FV = $10000, m = 3, n = 7 and r = 0.08.
10000 = PV[tex](1+\frac{0.08}{3}) ^{(3*7)}[/tex]
= PV[tex](1.0267)^{(21)}[/tex]
= 1.7391PV
PV = [tex]\frac{10000}{1.7391}[/tex]
= 5750.1006
PV = 5750.1
The equivalent amount the she had to start with is $5750.1.
The equivalent amount would be as follows:
$[tex]5750.1[/tex]
Find the amount
Given that,
Present value of the principal = $10,000
Rate of interest = 8%
Time = 7 years
We know that,
The principal was compounded quarterly,
No. of quarters in 7 years = 7 × 3
= 21
So,
The Future Value = Present Value[tex](1 + r/m)^_{nm}[/tex]
⇒ 10,000 = Present Value [tex]( 1 + 0.08/3)^{21}[/tex]
∵ Present Value [tex]= 10,000/1.7391[/tex]
[tex]=[/tex] $[tex]5750.1[/tex]
Thus, $[tex]5750.1[/tex] is the correct answer.
