Answer:
a. The best approximates the price elasticity of demand is -1.1333. Therefore, the correct option is D. -1.1333.
b. George's Initial price markup over marginal cost = 0.625. Therefore, the correct option is C. 0.625.
c. George's desired markup = 0.8824. Therefore, the correct option is D. 0.8824.
d. Since George's initial markup, or actual margin, was LESS than his desired margin, raising the price was PROFITABLE.
Explanation:
a. Which of the following best approximates the price elasticity of demand?
Price elasticity of demand = Percentage change in quantity demanded / Percentage change in price ................ (1)
Where, based on the midpoint formula, we have:
Percentage change in quantity demanded = {(New quantity demanded – Old quantity demanded) / [(New quantity demanded + Old quantity demanded) / 2]} * 100 = {(7000 - 8000) / [(7000 + 8000) / 2]} * 100 = -13.3333333333333%
Percentage change in price = {(New price - Old price) / [(New price + Old price) / 2]} * 100 = {(9 - 8) / [(9 + 8) / 2]} * 100 = 11.7647058823529%
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Price elasticity of demand = -13.3333333333333% / 11.7647058823529% = -1.13333333333333
Approximated to 4 decimal places, we have:
Price elasticity of demand = -1.1333
This implies that the best approximates the price elasticity of demand is -1.1333.
Therefore, the correct option is D. -1.1333.
b. Suppose George's marginal cost is $3 per shirt. Before the price change, George's initial price markup over marginal cost was approximately.
George's Initial price markup over marginal cost = (Initial selling price - marginal cost) / Initial selling price = ($8 - $3) / $8 = 0.625
Therefore, the correct option is C. 0.625.
c. George's desired markup is?
George's desired markup = 1 / Absolute value of price elasticity of demand BEFORE approximation to 4 decimal places = 1 / 1.13333333333333 = 0.88235294117647
Approximated to 4 decimal places, we have:
George's desired markup = 0.8824
Therefore, the correct option is D. 0.8824
d. Since George's initial markup, or actual margin, was (LESS OR GREATER) than his desired margin, raising the price was (PROFITABLE OR NOT PROFITABLE).
George's Initial price markup over marginal cost = 0.625
George's desired markup = 0.8824
Therefore, we have:
Since George's initial markup, or actual margin, was LESS than his desired margin, raising the price was PROFITABLE.
The mailroom employees send all remittances and remittance advices to the cashier. The cashier deposits the cash in the bank and forwards the remittance advices and duplicate deposit slips to the Accounting Department.
a. Indicate the weak link in internal control in the handling of cash receipts.
b. How can the weakness be corrected?
Answer:
a. There is weak control measure by sending the remittance advice to the cashier
b. To remedy this weakness in control the mailroom can send the remittance advice directly to the accounting department
Explanation:
In the given scenario the mailroom sends remittance advice to the cashier who then processes deposit and sends the remittance advices and duplicate deposit slips to the Accounting Department.
Given the opportunity the cashier can divert some of the remittance advice without the accounting department knowing since the mailroom does not report anything to the accounting department.
To avoid this risk in operations it will be better for the mailroom to send the remittance advise to the accounting department.
The accounting department can now forward to the cashier for processing
The furniture store offers you no-money-down on a new set of living room furniture. Further, you may pay for the furniture in three equal annual end-of-the-year payments of $1,000 each with the first payment to be made one year from today. If the discount rate is 6%, what is the present value of the furniture payments
Answer: $2,673
Explanation:
The amounts to be paid are constant so this is an annuity. The present value will therefore be the present value of an annuity.
Present value of annuity = Annuity * Present value interest factor of annuity, 3 periods, 6%
= 1,000 * 2.6730
= $2,673
An asset used in a four-year project falls in the five-year MACRS class for tax purposes. The asset has an acquisition cost of $5,150,000 and will be sold for $1,575,000 at the end of the project. If the tax rate is 22 percent, what is the aftertax salvage value of the asset
Answer:
$1,424,282.40
Explanation:
Missing word "Refer to Table 5 YEAR :20%,32%,19.2%,11.52%"
Book value as on date of sale = Cost - Accumulated Depreciation
Book value as on date of sale = $5,150,000*(1 - 0.2 - 0.32 - 0.192 - 0.1152)
Book value as on date of sale = $5,150,000*0.1728
Book value as on date of sale = $889,920
Gain on sale = $1,575,000 - $889,920
Gain on sale = $685,080
After-tax salvage value = Sale proceeds - (Gain on sale*Tax rate)
After-tax salvage value = $1,575,000 - ($685,080*22%)
After-tax salvage value = $1,575,000 - $150,717.60
After-tax salvage value = $1,424,282.40
Accrued Product Warranty Fosters Manufacturing Co. warrants its products for one year. The estimated product warranty is 4% of sales. Assume that sales were $379,000 for January. On February 7, a customer received warranty repairs requiring $250 of parts and $105 of labor.
a. Journalize the adjusting entry required at January 31, the end of the first month of the current fiscal year, to record the accrued product warranty.
b. Journalize the entry to record the warranty work provided in February.
Answer:
a.
Date Account Title Debit Credit
Jan. 31 Product Warranty Expense $15,160
Product Warranty Payable $15,160
Working:
Product warranty expense = Amount of sales for January * Estimated product warranty
= 379,000 * 4%
= $15,160
b.
Date Account Title Debit Credit
Jan. 31 Product Warranty Payable $355
Supplies $250

The costs of the warranty will be taken from the liability account for warranties because the warranty payable account represents that the company owes warranty repairs which the customer just came to collect.
Carpet Renewal dyes carpets for residential customers. The company is interested in estimating fixed and variable costs. The following data are available for the month of June when 420 carpets were dyed:
Office rent $ 1,250
Depreciation - equipment 900
Cleaning supplies 5,140
Hourly wages 11,000
Transportation (variable) 3,600
Owner’s salary 3,100
Total $24,990
Using account analysis, how much is estimated variable cost per carpet?
a. $59.50
b. $52.12
c. $47.00
d. $38.43
Answer: c. $47 per carpet
Explanation:
Total variable costs are:
= Cleaning supplies + Hourly wages + Transportation
= 5,140 + 11,000 + 3,600
= $19,740
The variable cost per carpet is:
= Total variable cost / Number of carpets dyed
= 19,740 / 420
= $47 per carpet
The fastener division of Southern Fasteners manufactures zippers and then sells them to customers for $8 per unit. Its variable cost is $3 per unit, and its fixed cost per unit is $1.50. Management would like the fastener division to transfer 12,000 of these zippers to another division within the company at a price of $3. The fastener division could avoid $0.20 per zipper of variable packaging costs by selling internally.
Determine the minimum transfer price:
(a) Assuming the fastener division is not operating at full capacity, and
(b) Assuming the fastener division is operating at full capacity.
Answer:
a. $2.80b. $7.80Explanation:
a. Assuming the fastener division is not operating at full capacity
When the division is not operating at full capacity, they have space to take on the production requests for other divisions and so won't incur any opportunity costs from not producing for outside customers.
Minimum transfer price = Net Variable cost
= Variable cost - cost saving if sold internally
= 3 - 0.2
= $2.80
b. Assuming the fastener division is operating at full capacity.
At full capacity the division does not have space to produce for internal divisions without incurring losses from not selling outside. The transfer price will therefore be the selling price to customers less the variable cost savings:
= Selling price - variable cost savings
= 8 - 0.2
= $7.80
Refer to the supply and demand data for a certain elective surgical procedure. Without health insurance, the equilibrium price and quantity would be: Group of answer choices $3,000 and 7,000. $2,000 and 11,000. $5,000 and 2,000. $4,000 and 4,000.
Answer:
$3,000 and 7,000
Explanation:
Please find attached the table used in answering this question
Equilibrium price is the price at which quantity demand equal quantity supplied.
Equilibrium quantity is the quantity that equates quantity demand with quantity supplied.
Above equilibrium price there is a surplus - quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded. As a result of the surplus, price would fall until equilibrium is reached.
Below equilibrium price there is a shortage - quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied. As a result of the shortage, price would rise until equilibrium is reached

You are considering buying bonds in ACBB, Inc. The bonds have a par value of $1,000 and mature in 35 years. The annual coupon rate is 20.0% and the coupon payments are annual. If you believe that the appropriate discount rate for the bonds is 17.0%, what is the value of the bonds to you
Answer:
Bond Price= $121.27
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Face value= $1,000
Coupon= 0.2*1,000= $20
Maturity= 35 years
Discount rate= 17%
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to use the following formula:
Bond Price= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]
Bond Price= 20*{[1 - (1.17^-35)] / 0.17} + [1,000/(1.17^35)]
Bond Price= 117.16 + 4.11
Bond Price= $121.27
A steam boiler is needed as part of the design of a new plant. The boiler can be fired by natural gas, fuel oil, or coal. A cost analysis shows that natural gas would be the cheapest at $30,000; for fuel oil it would be $55,000; and for coal it would be $180,000. If natural gas is used rather than fuel oil, the annual fuel cost will decrease by $7,500. If coal is used rather than fuel oil, the annual fuel cost will be $15,000 per year less. Assuming 8% interest, a 20-year analysis period, and no salvage value, which is the most economincal installation?
Answer:
Natural gas boiler
Explanation:
Alternative Installation cost Annual savings
natural gas $30,000 $7,500
fuel oil $55,000 not given
coal $180,000 $15,000
we need to find the PV of natural gas savings = $7,500 * 9.8181 (PVIFA, 8%, 20 periods) = $73,638
the PV of coal savings = $15,000 - 9.8181 (PVIFA, 8%, 20 periods) = $147,272
NPV of natural gas boiler = $73,638 - $30,000 = $43,638
NPV of coal boiler = $147,272 - $180,000 = -$32,728

Both Sue and Joe are students. Your friend Sue has $20,000 of credit card debt (25% interest charge compounded monthly). Sue plans on paying $400 per month over the next 10 years on this credit card. Your other friend Joe has $40,000 of student loan debt (15% interest charge compounded monthly). Joe plans on paying $645.34 each month for the next 10 years.
A) Which person, Sue or Joe, do you feel will pay the most interest expense and why?
B) Which person (Joe or Sue) has the worst debt situation?
Answer:
A)
Joe will pay the most interest expense because he is paying more interest than Sue.
B)
Sue has the worst debt situation because he is paying a higher interest rate as compared to Joe.
Explanation:
A)
First Calculate the interest payment of both as follow
Interest Payment = Total Installment Payment - Debt Value
Sue
Interest Payment = ( $400 per month x 10 years x 12 months per year ) - $20,000 = $48,000 - $20,000 = $28,000
Joe
Interest Payment = ( $645.34 per month x 10 years x 12 months per year ) - $40,000 = $77,440.8 - $40,000 = $37,440.8
Joe will pay more interest expense as compared to Sue.
B)
Sue has the worst debt situation because he is paying a higher interest rate as compared to Joe.
Jennifer is the sole beneficiary of an irrevocable trust created by her father. Income and principal may be distributed to her at the trustee's discretion. Jennifer has a 5-and-5 power of appointment over the trust. Jennifer died last month at which time the trust was valued at $2,500,000. She did not withdraw any money from the trust this year. How much of the trust was included in her estate at death
Answer:
$125,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much of the trust was included in her estate at death
Since she has 5-and-5 power of appointment over the trust which means that she has the ability to withdraw the GREATER of 5% of fair market value (fmv) of the trust or the amount of $5,000.
Hence, the amount that was included in her estate at death will be $125,000 which is calculated as (5%*trust valued amount of $2,500,000)
Therefore How much of the trust was included in her estate at death is $125,000

Jenson Co. just paid a $10.18 dividend. The company's dividends are expected to grow at a consistent rate of 6% indefinitely. Given a required rate of return of 12%, what should be the price of Jenson's stock
Answer:
$179.85
Explanation:
according to the constant dividend growth model
price = d1 / (r - g)
d1 = next dividend to be paid
r = cost of equity
g = growth rate
10.18 (1,06) / (0.12 - 0.06) = 179.85

Question Completion with Options:
i. Line Organisation
ii. Staff Organisation
iii. Functional Organisation
iv. Committee Organisation Code
Answer:
The option that is not a standard organizational structure is:
iv. Committee Organisation Code
Explanation:
The organizational structure adopted by an entity reflects how some of its rules, roles, and responsibilities are directed between organizational levels in order to achieve its goals. The organizational structure also shows the information flows between different levels within the entity. Traditionally, organizations maintained hierarchical, functional, divisional, matrix, and flat organizational structures. Given current digitalization with its internet of things (IoT), more decentralized, network, and team-based organizational structures have emerged.
You are planning to save for retirement over the next 30 years. To do this, you will invest $700 a month in a stock account and $400 a month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 7.5 percent, and the bond account will pay 5.5 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with a 2.5 percent return. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 25-year withdrawal period?
a. 5.545.73.
b. 6,081.31.
c. 5,870.85.
d. 6.205.66
Answer:
Monthly withdraw= $5,870.6
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Stock:
Monthly deposit= $700
Interest rate= 0.075/12= 0.00625
Number of periods= 30*12= 360
Bond:
Monthly deposit= $400
Interest rate= 0.055/12= 0.0045833
Number of periods= 30*12= 360
First, we need to calculate the value of the investment at the moment of retirement:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
Stock:
FV= {700*[(1.00625^360) - 1]} / 0.00625
FV= $943,211.797
Bond:
FV= {400*[(1.00458^360) - 1]} / 0.00458
FV= $365,447.415
Total FV= $1,308,659.212
Now, the monthly withdrawal:
Interest rate= 0.025/12= 0.002083
Number of periods= 25*12= 300
Monthly withdraw= (FV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]
Monthly withdraw= (1,308,659.212*0.002083) / [1 - (1.002083^-300)]
Monthly withdraw= $5,870.6

Saddle Inc. has two types of handbags: standard and custom. The controller has decided to use a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor costs. The president has heard of activity-based costing and wants to see how the results would differ if this system were used. Two activity cost pools were developed: machining and machine setup. Presented below is information related to the company’s operations. Standard Custom Direct labor costs $60,000 $103,000 Machine hours 1,400 1,290 Setup hours 96 400 Total estimated overhead costs are $300,000. Overhead cost allocated to the machining activity cost pool is $195,000, and $105,000 is allocated to the machine setup activity cost pool.
1. Compute the overhead rate using the traditional (plantwide) approach. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.)
2. Compute the overhead rates using the activity-based costing approach. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.)

Zimmer, Inc. started the month of January with beginning finished goods inventory of $20,000. The cost of goods manufactured during the month was $120,000 and the ending finished goods inventory was $50,000. What is the unadjusted cost of goods sold for January
Answer:
$90,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the unadjusted cost of goods sold for January
Using this formula
Unadjusted cost of goods sold= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory
Let plug in the formula
Unadjusted cost of goods sold= 20,000 + 120,000 - 50,000
Unadjusted cost of goods sold= $90,000
Therefore the Unadjusted cost of goods sold is $90,000
On January 2, 20X1, Ziegler Company issues a four-year note in exchange for a license agreement requiring four annual payments of $27,956. The market value of the four-year agreement is $100,000. The first payment is due on the day the agreement is signed. The effective interest rate is 8%. The second payment includes interest of:
Answer:
$5,763.52
Explanation:
1st payment is due on the day the agreement is signed.
The 2nd payment interest is computed as bellow:
=> ($100,000 - First payment) * 8%
=> ($100,000 - $27,956) * 8%
=> $72,044 * 8%
=> $5,763.52
So, the second payment includes interest of $5,763.52.

Calculate the discounted payback period of the tanning bed, stated in Example 1 above, by using a discount rate of 10%.
Answer:
Payback PeriodPayback period = Year before payback + Amount left to be paid back / Cashflow in year of payback
In year 2, the bed would have paid back:
= 4,000 + 4,500
= $8,500
Would be left with:
= 10,000 - 8,500
= $1,500
Payback period = 2 + 1,500 / 10,000
= 2.15 years
Company will not buy as payback period is more than 2 years.
Discounted payback period.Discount the cashflows first:
Year 1 = 4.000 / 1.1 = $3,636.36
Year 2 = 4,500 / 1.1² = $3,719
Year 3 = 10,000 / 1.1³ = $7,513.15
Year 4 = 8,000 / 1.1⁴ = $5,464.11
Discounted payback period = Year before payback + Amount left to be paid back / Cashflow in year of payback
= 2 + (10,000 - 3,636.36 - 3,719) / 7,513.15
= 2 + 2,644.64 / 7,513.15
= 2.35 years

Answer: a. reinstates the customer's account to the balance of both gross receivables and the allowance.
Explanation:
When a company receives payment from a customer whose debt had been written off, the first step is to reinstate the account. This will be done by debiting the Accounts Receivable account and crediting the Allowance for doubtful debt accounts.
The accounts receivable account will then be credited to show that it is reducing. The cash account will be debited to show that cash was received from the customer.
