Answer:
a. Calculate the amount of depreciation for 2017 using financial accounting straight-line depreciation (not the straight-line MACRS election) over the truck's estimated useful life.
depreciation expense per year = $42,000 / 5 = $8,400
depreciation expense for 2017 = $8,400 x 9/12 = $6,300
b. Calculate the amount of depreciation for 2017 using the straight-line depreciation election, using MACRS tables over the minimum number of years with no bonus depreciation or election to expense
using MACRS table, depreciation expense = $42,000 x (20%/2 due to half year) = $4,200
c. Calculate the amount of depreciation for 2017, including bonus depreciation but no election to expense, that Mike could deduct using the MACRS tables
= ($42,000 / 2) + $4,200 = $21,000 + $4,200 = $25,200
d. Assume no income limit on the expense election. Calculate the amount of depreciation for 2017 including bonus depreciation and the election to expense that Mike can deduct

Marissa gives Larry a check made payable to cash in payment for a
computer that she is buying from him. Larry then gives the check to his
nephew, Gary Graduate, without indorsing it, as a graduation gift. Marissa
then stops payment on the check because she claims that Larry breached the
contract. When the check bounces, Gary makes a claim against Marissa for
the amount of the check. Marissa responds that Gary cannot collect on the
check since he is not a holder because Larry never indorsed the check to
him. Which statement is true?
1.Gary is at least a holder
2.Gary is not a holder or holder in due course because the check was never indorsed
3.Gary is not a holder or holder in due course because of the shelter principal
4.Gary is not a holder or holder in due clause because Larry breached the contract
Answer:
The correct answer is the option 2: Gary is not a holder or holder in due course becuase the check was never indorsed.
Explanation:
To begin with, the field of law and more in particular the commercial law and all its scenarios, any check that has been passing through hands must be indorsed in order to be able to be payable to the person who has it the last, in any other case if the check is not indorsed then that means by law that the check has never changed its owner and therefore that it can not be payable for anybody else. That is why, Gary is not a holder because his uncle did not indorsed him the check correctly.

Thomas Kratzer is the purchasing manager for the headquarters of a large insurance company chain with a central inventory operation. Thomas's fastest-moving inventory item has a demand of 6 comma 000 units per year. The cost of each unit is $97, and the inventory carrying cost is $8 per unit per year. The average ordering cost is $29 per order. It takes about 5 days for an order to arrive, and the demand for 1 week is 120 units. (This is a corporate operation, and there are 250 working days per year).
A) What is the EOQ?B) What is the average inventory if the EOQ is used?C) What is the optimal number of orders per year?
Answer:
A) EOQ = 208.56 units
B) Average inventory = 104.28 units
C) Optimum number of order = 28.76 times
Explanation:
Economic order quantity is the order quantity that minimizes the balance of ordering and carrying cost.
Economic order quantity = √2× 29× 6,000/8=208.56 units
Average inventory = Minimum stock level + Order quantity/2
minimum stock level is not given , hence
Average inventory = 208.56/2 = 104.28 units
Optimum number of order
Optimum number of order = Demand / order quantity
= 6000/208.56= 28.76 times.
EOQ = 208.56 units
B) Average inventory = 104.28 units
C) Optimum number of order = 28.76 times

Accounts Receivable Turnover and Days' Sales in Receivables American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. sells clothing, accessories, and personal care products for men and women through its retail stores. American Eagle reported the following data (in millions) for two recent years: Year 2 Year 1 Sales 3522 3283Accounts receivable 81 68Assume that accounts receivable (in millions) were $74 million at the beginning of Year 1 a. Compute the accounts receivable turnover for Year 2 and Year 1. Round to two decimal places. Year 2: Year 1: b. Compute the day's sales in receivables for Year 2 and Year 1. Round interim calculations and final answers to one decimal place. Use 365 days per year in your $3,283 68 calculations. Year 2: Year 1: c. The change in accounts receivable turnover from year 1 to year 2 indicates a(n) a(n) days days in the efficiency of collecting accounts receivable and is___________ change. The change in the days' sales in receivables indicates a _________ change
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. Account receivable turnover ratio is
= Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable
where,
the Average accounts receivable would be
= (Accounts receivable, beginning of year + Accounts receivable, end of year) ÷ 2
For year 2
= ($3,522) ÷ ($81 + $68) ÷ 2
= 47.3 times
For year 1
= ($3,283) ÷ ($68 + $74) ÷ 2
= 46.2 times
b. The days sales in receivables is
= 365 days ÷ account receivable turnover ratio
For year 2
= 365 days ÷ 47.3 times
= 7.7 days
For year 1
= 365 days ÷ 46.2 times
= 7.9 days
c. As we can see that the change in accounts receivable turnover from year 1 to year 2 i.e from 46.2 times to 47.3 times is favorable change and it is increasing and the change in days sales in receivables from year 1 to year 2 i.e from 7.9 days to 7.7 days indicates a favorable change
A stockbroker predicts whether a stock will go up or down by tossing a coin and so has a 50% chance of making a correct prediction. Another broker, who is skilled, has a 60% chance of making a correct prediction. You don’t know which broker is which, so you watch their predictions for three days. Each broker gets all three predictions correct. What are the relevant probabilities? How do you decide who is the skilled broker? Search entries or author
Answer:
A skilled broker will be right at 60% of time compared to 50%
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
Now,
Let X be represented as = number of correct predictions/outcomes
X foll binomial distribution with n = 3 and p = 0.5 for broker who use a toss coin
Thus,
P(X = 3) = p^3 = 0.5^3 which gives us = 0.125
So,
For a skilled broker, Y goes with the binomial distribution with n = 3 and p is = 0.6
Then,
P(Y = 3) = 0.6^3 = 0.216
We can therefore conclude who is skilled broker by making large number of observations
Hence, we say that a skilled broker will be correct 60% of time compared to 50% .
James Smith, a health inspector for the state of Missouri, inspected a restaurant owned by Salley Slick. Smith found numerous health violations in the restaurant and fined Slick accordingly. When Smith notified Slick of the infractions, Smith strongly suggested that $5,000 "would sure prove handy in the Spring" when he planned to purchase a new fishing boat. Slick understood Smith's obvious hint and offered Smith $5,000 if he would lose the paperwork concerning the failure of the restaurant to meet proper inspection guidelines. Smith accepted the $5,000 and lost the paperwork. One month later, Smith returned to the restaurant and told Slick that he would reappear every month and find violations unless Slick produced $1,000 each month to go toward the purchase of a fleet for Smith. Slick agreed to make the $1,000 payments. What crimes have been committed by Smith and Slick?
Answer:
Smith is guilty of Bribery and corruption While slick is guilty of breaking health code and trying to bribe a public officer.
Explanation:
Bribery has occurred because Smith's judgment has been paid for/influenced through the $5000 he has received from Slick. Money he plans to use on a boat. Smith has solicitated a bribe and is guilty of bribery. Since he sought for the bribe, he has committed a crime of bribery solicitation. After receiving the money, he committed the crime of accepting a bribe. When additional sums of money were requested, Smith further committed the crime of extortion and blackmail. He has been shown to be greedy.
Slick is guilty of trying to bribe a public official to escape the payment of fines and also guilty of violating health codes.
Gomez runs a small pottery firm. He hires one helper at $10,500 per year, pays annual rent of $4,500 for his shop, and spends $19,000 per year on materials. He has $40,000 of his own funds invested in equipment (pottery wheels, kilns, and so forth) that could earn him $5,000 per year if alternatively invested. He has been offered $21,000 per year to work as a potter for a competitor. He estimates he could use his talents to earn an additional $3,000 per year in consulting fees if he were working full time as a potter. Total annual revenue from pottery sales is $71,000.Calculate the accounting profit and the economic profit for Gomez’s pottery firm.1. Accounting Profit = $______2. Economic Profit = $______
Answer:
Economic profit= $8,000
Accounting profit= $37,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Costs:
Helper= $10,500 per year
Rent= $4,500
Materials= $19,000
Total= 34,000
Pottery Revenue= $71,000
Alternative= 5,000 + 21,000 + 3,000= $29,000
The difference between the economic profit and accounting profit is that the first one includes the opportunity cost of an alternative income.
Economic profit= 71,000 - 34,000 - 29,000= $8,000
Accounting profit= 71,000 - 34,000= $37,000
Mayall Corporation is developing standards for its products. Each unit of output of the product requires 0.92 kilogram of a particular input.

Indigo Devices Corp. has 25,000 units in process on September 1 that are 70% complete. In September, the company completed and transferred out 60,000 units. The company has 12,000 units in process on September 30 that are 40% complete. Calculate the equivalent units of Indigo Devices for September assuming the company uses the FIFO method of costing.
Answer:
Equivalent unit = 47,300 units
Explanation:
The FIFO separates the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked
Fully work represent units started and completed in the same period. They exclude the opening inventory.
Fully worked = 60,000- 25,000 =175,000.
Item units Equivalent units
Opening inventory 25,,000 25,000× 30%= 7,500
Fully worked 35,000 35,000× 100% 35,000
Closing inventory 12000 12,000 × 40% = 4,800
Total equivalent unit 47,300
Equivalent unit = 47,300 units
Note also at that the degree of completion for opening inventory is the simply the balance of work remaining to be done.
For example, for materials, 70%% of work has been done on the opening inventory in the last period, hence the balance of 30% would be done this period

Explanation:
In contrast to expected utility theory, prospect theory: A. weights outcomes based on their true probabilities, while expected utility uses a subjective weighting function. B. assumes people only care about their level of wealth instead of expected utility. C. allows people to treat gains and losses asymmetrically. D. decision makers are more sensitive to a given change in the outcome for large gains or losses than for small ones.
Answer: C. allows people to treat gains and losses asymmetrically.
Explanation:
According to the Prospect Theory, people generally are very averse to losses. For this reason they will always pick the option that gives them.gains as opposed to losses even if the result is the same. This means that they ascribe greater utility towards gains than losses meaning that they treat them asymptomatically.
For example, two options could be put to you. One makes you $10 and the other makes you $20 but you will lose $10. The result is the same but according to this theory you will pick the first option because gains are favoured to losses.
Expected Utility on the other hand involves people picking options and not knowing what the outcome will be so they cannot treat loss or gain asymmetrically. This is in contrast to the Prospect theory as because they know what might happen, they are able to pick gains.

2. Computation of amortization expense of each intangible for the year ended December 31, 2014
Amortization on December 31, 2014 using thr straight-line method excluding residual value:
Amortization expense
Calculation for Copyright:
$14,500 × 1/10 = $1,450
We wont calculate for Goodwill because goodwill is not amortized because of its indefinite life.
Calculation for Patent:
$48,000 × 1/16 =$3,000
1/16 is what was remaining at time of the purchase
[Amortization expense =20 year legal life – the years used which is 4 years = 16 years remaining]
3. Calculation of how the assets and any related expenses should be reported on the balance sheet and income statement for 2014.
Income statement for 2014:
Calculation for Amortization expense: ($1,450 + $3,000) = $4,450
Springer Company Balance sheet at December 31, 2014:
Calculation for Copyright ($14,500 − $1,450) = $13,050
Goodwill $65,000
Calculation for Patent ($48,000 − $6,000) = $42,000
($3,000 amortization expense × 2 years =$6,000)

Mike worked for Frank's Pizza as a driver and was an agent. His duties consisted of making deliveries along a designated route. One day Mike decided to see his girlfriend, Jackie, who lived 50 miles off his pizza route. While driving to his girlfriend's, Mike injured a pedestrian, Chuck. The accident was caused by Mike's negligent driving. Chuck is now suing both Mike and Frank's for personal injuries. Under the circumstances
A. Frank's is never liable for the negligent torts of its agents.B. Frank's is not liable because Mike was on a frolic of his own.C. Chuck can recover damages from both Frank's and Mike.D. Frank's is liable under the doctrine of respondeat superior.
Answer:
B. is not liable because Mike was on a frolic of his own.
Explanation:
Mike who is a dispatch rider, decided to see his girlfriend, Jackie, who lived 50 miles off his pizza route. He had an accident while driving to his girlfriend's, and injured a pedestrian, Chuck due to his negligent driving.
Under the circumstances, Frank's Pizza isn't liable because Mike was on a frolic of his own. Mike embarking on a 50 mile drive to see his girlfriend is frolicsome and outside the scope of his employment as a delivery agent.
Hence, this will absolve his employer from any liability as he wasn't working on the designated route at the time.
ou currently own 10 percent of the 3.0 million outstanding shares of Webster Mills. The company has just announced a rights offering with a subscription price of $40. One right will be issued for each share of outstanding stock. This offering will provide $12 million of new financing for the firm, ignoring all issue costs. Assume that all rights are exercised. What will be your new ownership position if you opted to sell your rights rather than exercise them personally
Answer: 9.09% ownership
Explanation:
Your current ownership of the shares in Webster Mills is 10% of 3 million.
That means that you own,
= 10% * 3 million
= 300,000 shares.
The new offering that the company is doing equates one right to each share of existing stock and is expected to raise $12 million in new financing at a cost of $40. The goal is to find out how many new shares this will add.
= 12,000,000/40
= 300,000 shares
This means that 300,000 new shares will be added.
There are already 3,000,000 shares outstanding and now there are 300,00 extra which would bring the total to,
= 3,000,000 + 300,000
= 3,300,000 outstanding shares.
Since you sold your rights then you still have shares but now your percentage of ownership will change because of the increase in outstanding shares.
Your ownership percentage is now,
= 300,000 shares (that you own) / 3,300,000 (new outstanding balance)
= 0.0909
= 9.09%
Your new ownership position is that you own 9.09% of Webster Mills.
The new ownership position if you opted to sell your rights rather than exercise them personally is 9.09% of 3.3 Million shares.
The calculation is as follows:New shares Issued is
= Proceeds ÷ Subscription price
= $12 M ÷ $40
= 300,000
Now
New Composition = No. of shares held ÷ Total shares after issuance
= 300,000 ÷ 3,300,000
= 0.0909
= 9.09%
Therefore we can conclude that The new ownership position if you opted to sell your rights rather than exercise them personally is 9.09% of 3.3 Million shares.

A firm is running 12 different ad campaigns in Brazil with a total budget of BRL 40 million (exchange rate: BRL 2.2517 per USD), but the campaigns do not appear to be effective. What would you recommend
Answer:
BRL 40 million is $90.068 million in America.
For 12 different ads, that is an average of about $7.5 million per ad.
My recommendations will be to check the effectiveness of the marketing strategy and the general approach towards the ad campaigns. It might be necessary for the company to narrow down on the number of campaigns or increase the funding available for the ad campaign. Also, the effectiveness of the methods of ad campaign can be compared to that of similar firms that has been successful with their ad campaigns, and necessary can then be made.
Cavy Company accumulated 560 hours of direct labor on Job 567 and 820 hours on Job 888. The direct labor was incurred at a rate of $15 per direct labor hour for Job 567 and $25 per direct labor for Job 888. Journalize the entry to record the flow of labor costs into production. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank. Work in Process
Answer:
Dr work-in-process $ 28,900.00
Cr wages payable $ 28,900.00
Explanation:
The total amount of labor costs incurred on both jobs would be debited to work in process account , while the credit entry would be posted to the wages payable account.
Total labor cost incurred=(560*$15)+(820*$25)=$28,900.00
The amount is debited to work in process so as to add up to other direct costs of production while entry into wages payable indicates that employees are being owed.
Brightstone Tire and Rubber Company has capacity to produce 221,000 tires. Brightstone presently produces and sells 169,000 tires for the North American market at a price of $114 per tire. Brightstone is evaluating a special order from a European automobile company, Euro Motors. Euro is offering to buy 26,000 tires for $93.6 per tire. Brightstone's accounting system indicates that the total cost per tire is as follows:
Direct materials $54
Direct labor 24
Factory overhead (62% variable) 24
Selling and administrative expenses (44% variable) 25
Total $127.00
Brightstone pays a selling commission equal to 4% of the selling price on North American orders, which is included in the variable portion of the selling and administrative expenses. However, this special order would not have a sales commission. If the order was accepted, the tires would be shipped overseas for an additional shipping cost of $7.65 per tire. In addition, Euro has made the order conditional on receiving European safety certification. Brightstone estimates that this certification would cost $165,424.

At points on the short run aggregate supply curve (SAS) to the left of the long run aggregate supply curve (LAS), resources are most likely:________.a. overutilized, making it more likely that the short run aggregate supply curve (SAS) will shift up.b. underutilized, making it more likely that the short run aggregate supply curve (SAS) will shift down.c. overutilized, making it more likely that the short run aggregate supply curve (SAS) will shift down.d. underutilized, making it more likely that the short run aggregate supply curve (SAS) will shift up.
Answer:.b----underutilized, making it more likely that the short run aggregate supply curve (SAS) will shift down.
Explanation: At points on the short run aggregate supply curve shifting to the left of the long run aggregate supply curve means that the economy is at the stage where output in the short run will not exceed output on the long run therefore resources will be underutilized resulting to lower prices and therefore causing a a downward shift on the short run aggregate supply curve.
Answer:
d. underutilized, making it more likely that the short run aggregate supply curve (SAS) will shift up.
Explanation:
Aggregate supply is a sum of all goods and services that is supplied to a consumer. In the short run aggregate supply is affected by factors such as price level, government policy.
When the prices of inputs increases it results in a reduction in amount aggregate supplied (shift to the left and upward as illustrated in the diagram).
This implies that resources are not used maximally to produce output, but production is limited by the higher cost of inputs.
In the attached diagram aggregate supply shifts upward and to the left from AS1 to AS2
Lusk Corporation produces and sells 14,900 units of Product X each month. The selling price of Product X is $31 per unit, and variable expenses are $25 per unit. A study has been made concerning whether Product X should be discontinued. The study shows that $73,000 of the $113,000 in monthly fixed expenses charged to Product X would not be avoidable even if the product was discontinued. If Product X is discontinued, the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company of eliminating this product should be: g
Answer:
Effect on income= $34,500 decrease
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales= 14,900 units
Selling price= $31 per unit
Variable expenses= $25 per unit.
The study shows that $73,000 of the $113,000 in monthly fixed expenses charged to Product X would not be avoidable even if the product was discontinued.
First, we need to calculate the current income of Product X.
Net income= 14,900*(31 - 25) - 113,000= -$38,500
Now, the effect of discontinuing the product.
Effect on income= unavoidable fixed costs - current income
Effect on income= - 73,000 + 38,500
Effect on income= $34,500 decrease

Future Value (LG5-1) Compute the future value in year 8 of a $4,400 deposit in year 1, and another $3,900 deposit at the end of year 3 using an 10 percent interest rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
Future value =_______
Answer:
Total future value = $15,712.78
Explanation:
Future value is computed using the formula below:
FV = PV × (1+r)^n
FV- Future value, n -number of years, interest rate per annum
First deposit
FV = 4,400× (1.1)^8 = 9,431.79
Second deposit
Note the deposit was made in year 3, by the end of year year 8, then the number of years would be = (8-3) = 5 years
FV = 3,900 × (1.1)^5 = 6,280.98
Total future value = 9,431.79+ 6,280.98= $15,712.779
Total future value = $15,712.78
