Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$30,800

Explanation:

Amount of salaries to allocated to Grinding = Total salary cost * Number of employees in grinding/Total Number of employees

Amount of salaries to allocated to Grinding = $44,000 * 2,100/3,000

Answers

Answer: $13293.59

Explanation:

The following information can be deduced from the question:

Number of periods (n) = 12

Interest rate(i) = 18%/12 = 1.5%

Purchase price = $145000

PVA = [1 -(1.015)^-12] / 0.015 = 10.90751

Monthly installments payment = Purchase price / PVA

= $145000 / 10.90751

= $13293.59

4. Problems and Applications Q4 Many observers believe that the levels of pollution in our society are too high. True or False: If society wishes to reduce overall pollution by a certain amount, it is efficient to have firms with lower costs reduce greater amounts of pollution than those with higher costs.

Answers

Answer: True

Explanation:

Firms with lower costs would also incur a lower cost when they try to reduce pollution so they should reduce more pollution because of this reduced cost that they will incur.

Firms with higher costs would then reduce less pollution because this would ensure that they do not spend too much on pollution reduction and incur even more costs.

Required:
Determine the machineâs second-year depreciation and year end book value under the straight-line method.

Answers

Answer:the machine’s second-year depreciation and year end book value under the straight-line method is $3,990 and$40,420 respectively.

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation is calculated as

Depreciation= Initial value – salvage value / useful life

Depreciation=($48,400- $9,000)/10=$3,990

The depreciation expense each year would be $3990

Book value = Cost of asset- accumulated deprecation

Book value = Cost of asset - (2 years x depreciation)

=  $48,400- (2 x $3,990)

= $40,420

Therefore, the machine’s second-year depreciation and year end book value under the straight-line method is $3,990 and$40,420 respectively.

Blackwell, Inc. has a $125,000 liability it must pay five years from today. The company is opening a savings account so that the entire amount will be available when this debt needs to be paid. The plan is to make an initial deposit today and then deposit an additional $30,000 each year for the next three years, starting one year from today. The account pays a 5 percent rate of return. How much does the firm need to deposit today

Answers

Answer:

Initial investment= $23,838.78

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future Value (FV)= $125,000

Number of periods (n)= 5

Interest rate (i)= 5%

First, we need to calculate the future value of the three deposits using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {30,000*[(1.05^3) - 1]} / 0.05

FV= $94,575

Difference= 125,000 - 94,575= $30,425

Now, the initial investment today:

FV= PV*(1 + i)^n

Isolating PV:

PV= FV / (1 + i)^n

PV= 30,425 / (1.05^5)

PV= $23,838.78

Del Monty will receive the following payments at the end of the next three years: $8,000, $11,000, and $13,000. Then from the end of the 4th year through the end of the 10th year, he will receive an annuity of $14,000 per year. At a discount rate of 12 percent, what is the present value of all three future benefits

Answers

Answer: $$70,643

Explanation:

The payment from the 4th year to the 10th year is an annuity because it is constant.

The present value of an annuity is:

= Annuity * Present value interest factor of annuity, 12%, 7 years

= 14,000 * 4.5638

= $63,893.20

Present value of these:

= 8,000 / 1.12 + 11,000 / 1.12² + 13,000/1.12³ + 63,893.20 / 1.12³

= $70,643

Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires which of the following:

a. An effective internal control
b. Light penalties for violators
c. Auditors must evaluate internal controls
d. Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option A: An effective internal control.

Explanation:

To begin with, the name of "Sarbanes-Oxley Act" refers to the well known United States federal law whose main purpose is to set new requirements, or at least expand them, regarding the boards and management areas of public companies of the US. It was enacted in 2002 due to the various scandals regarding the accounts of companies like Enron back then. Therefore that the bill contains itself eleven sections where most of them are refered specifically to the public's responsabilities that the board of directors of the public companies have. As well as the criminal penalties that they can face in the case of breaking the law.

Answer:

a. An effective internal control
c. Auditors must evaluate internal controls

Explanation:

SOX requires managers and auditors whose stock is publicly traded to have an effective internal control system, auditors must evaluate internal controls, violators may receive harsh penalties (not light penalties), and auditors’ work is overseen by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) (not by the Public Accounting Board).

(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) Your Company has a truck that needs a new engine that would cost $35,000. This will extend the useful life of the truck by 5 years. As an alternative, Your Company could buy a brand new truck for $120,000. The new truck would also last 5 years. The annual operating expenses of the old truck are $8,500. The annual operating expenses of the new truck will only be $5,000. The old truck has a salvage value of $12,000 now and $3,500 in 5 years. The new truck is expected to have a $10,000 salvage value in 5 years. Your Company discount rate is 6%. What is the net present value of the decision to buy the new truck instead of repairing the old truck

Answers

Answer:

Hence the net cost to the company is 68,160.

NPV to buy a new truck instead of repairing  

NPV = -65390

Explanation:

Step 1:-

P.V. of Old Truck Repaired  

Given  

Discount rate = 6%  

New engine = 35000  

Life = 5 years  

Annual operating expenses = 8500  

Salvage (after 5 years)= 3500

Step 2:-  

Repair  

Net Cost to company  = Cost + Annual operating expenses x P.V. Annuity              

                                               Factor (6%, 5) - Salvage value x P.V. Intrinsic  

                                              Factor (6%, 5)  

 P.V.A.F. (6%, 5)= [tex]\sum_{5}^{1}1 / (1.06)^{n} = 4.21[/tex]  

 n = 4.21

 P.V.I.F. (6%, 5) = [tex]1/ (1.06)^{5} =0.75[/tex]

 

Net Cost to company:  = 35000 + 8500 x 4.21 - 3500 x 0.75  

= 35000 + 35785 - 2625  

= 68,160

P.V. of New truck purchased  

New Truck  

Cost = 120000  

Discount rate = 6%  

Life = 5 years  

Annual operating expenses = 5000  

Salvage (after 5 years)= 10000  

Net Cost to company:  = Cost + Annual operating expenses x P.V. Annuity

                                           Factor (6%, 5) - Salvage value x P.V. Intrinsic  

                                                                                            Factor (6%, 5)  

= 120000 + 5000 x 4.21 - 10000 x 0.75  

= 120000 + 21050 - 7500  

= 133550

NPV to buy a new truck instead of repairing  

NPV = Net cost of repairing - Net cost of new truck  

= 68160 - 133550  

= -65390

During its first year of operations, the McCormick Company incurred the following manufacturing costs: Direct materials, $6 per unit, Direct labor, $4 per unit, Variable overhead, $5 per unit, and Fixed overhead, $240,000. The company produced 30,000 units, and sold 20,000 units, leaving 10,000 units in inventory at year-end. Income calculated under variable costing is determined to be $370,000. How much income is reported under absorption costing?
a. $370,000
b. $290,000
c. $610,000
d. $450,000

Answers

Answer: d. $450,000

Explanation:

In absorption costing, the fixed costs are absorbed by the products so that the cost of goods sold is inclusive of fixed costs.

First find the fixed overhead for the ending inventory:

= Fixed overhead per unit * Number of units in ending inventory

= 240,000 / 30,000 * 10,000

= $80,000

This is the fixed overhead that is deferred to the next year.

Income under absorption costing = Income under variable costing + Fixed overhead deferred:

= 370,000 + 80,000

= $450,000

This is a straightforward question. From the question, we are informed that a company must repay the bank $10,000 cash in three years for a loan and that the loan agreement specifies 8% interest compounded annually and we are given the present value factor for three years at 8% is 0.7938.

Therefore, the amount of cash that the company receive from the bank on the day they borrowed this money will be:

= $10000 × Present value factor at 8%

= $10000 × 0.7938

= $7938

What should be the forecast for this period

Answers

Answer:

20,400 units

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What should be the forecast for this period

Using this formula

F t+1=α*D t+(1-α)

Where,

F t+1=Forecast for this period

α=Smoothing constant (alpha)

D t=Last period's actual demand

(1-α)=(1-Last period's demand forecast)

Let plug in the formula

F t+1=(0.4*21,000 units)+(1-0.4*20,000 units)

F t+1=(0.4*21,000 units)+ (0.60*20,000 units)

F t+1=8,400 units+12,000 units

F t+1=20,400 units

Therefore What should be the forecast for this period is 20,400 units

Its desired ROI per unit is $27.00. Compute its markup percentage using a total-cost approach. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 10.50%.)

Answers

Answer:

111%

Explanation:

Computation to determine its markup percentage using a total-cost approach

First step

Variable cost per unit= Direct materials+Direct labor+Variable manufacturing overhead+Variable selling and administrative expenses

Variable cost per unit= $30+20+16+18

Variable cost per unit= $84

Second step

Fixed cost per unit= Fixed manufacturing overhead+Fixed selling and administrative expenses

Fixed cost per unit= $42+24

Fixed cost per unit= $66

Now let determine the Variable costing markup percentage

Variable costing markup percentage= (Desired ROI+Fixed cost per unit)*100/Variable cost per unit

Variable costing markup percentage= ($27+66)*100/84

Variable costing markup percentage=110.7 %

Variable costing markup percentage=111% (Approximately)

Therefore its markup percentage using a total-cost approach is 111%
