Answer:
b. She receives $10,000
Explanation:
Taxes owed = (1/4 of income) - $15,000.
Taxes owed = (1/4 x 20,000) - $15,000.
= 5,000 - 15,000 => -10,000
Hence, she receives $10,000 from the government.
A negative income tax is a system where people earning below a certain amount receive supplemental pay from the government instead of paying taxes to the government.

You purchased an automobile a year ago for $10,000. Its current market price is $6,000, and the expected market value one year from now is $4,000. If the interest rate is 10 percent, how much will it cost you to keep the car for an additional year (over and above operation and maintenance costs)
Answer: $2600
Explanation:
From the information given, the cost price of the automobile is $10000 but the current market price is $6000. If the automobile is old now for $6000 and the money is kept in a bank for.one year at an interest rate of 10%, then the interest gotten on it will be:
= $6000 × 10% × 1
= $600
In a situation whereby the automobile is sold the following year, then the price will be $4,000 and I will get $4,000. Therefore, the cost for keeping the car for an additional year will then be:
= (Current price - Future price) + Interest amount
= ($6,000 - $4,000) + $600
= $2,600.

(L.O. 2) Nolan Company sells its product on an installment basis, earning a $450 pretax gross profit on each installment sale. For accounting purposes the entire $450 is recognized in the year of sale, but for income tax purposes the installment method of accounting is used. Assume Nolan makes one sale in 2019, another sale in 2020, and a third sale in 2021. In each case, one-third of the gross sales price is collected in the year of sale, one-third in the next year, and the final installment in the third year. If the tax rate is 50%, what amount of deferred tax liability should Nolan Company show on its December 31, 2021 balance sheet:
Answer:
$225
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what amount of deferred tax liability should Nolan Company show on its December 31, 2021 balance sheet:
Deferred tax liability =[ ($450/ 3) *50%]+ [($450 / 3 * 2) * 50%]
Deferred tax liability=$75+$150
Deferred tax liability = $225
Therefore the amount of deferred tax liability should Nolan Company show on its December 31, 2021 balance sheet is $225
Flack Corporation, a merchandiser, provides the following information for its December budgeting process: The November 30 inventory was 1,800 units. Budgeted sales for December are 4,000 units. Desired December 31 inventory is 2,840 units. Budgeted purchases are: Multiple Choice 5,800 units. 6,840 units. 4,000 units. 5,040 units. 1,240 units.
Answer: 5,040 units
Explanation:
Budgeted purchases are the purchases that the company needs to make in order to be able to sell its budgeted sales for the month and still have the desired ending inventory they want.
Budgeted purchases can be calculated by the formula:
= Budgeted sales + Desired Ending inventory - Opening inventory
= 4,000 + 2,840 - 1,800
= 6,840 - 1,800
= 5,040 units

Based on a predicted level of production and sales of 30,000 units, a company anticipates total contribution margin of $105,000, fixed costs of $40,000, and operating income of $65,000. Based on this information, the budgeted operating income for 28,000 units would be
Answer: $58,000
Explanation:
Operating income for 28,000 units = Contribution margin for 28,000 units - Fixed costs
Contribution margin for 28,000 units:
= 28,000 units * Contribution margin of 30,000 units / 30,000 units
= 28,000 * 105,000 / 30,000
= $98,000 units
Operating income for 28,000 units = 98,000 - 40,000
= $58,000

MC Qu. 120 Levelor Company's flexible budget shows... Levelor Company's flexible budget shows $10,640 of overhead at 75% of capacity, which was the operating level achieved during May. However, the company applied overhead to production during May at a rate of $2.20 per direct labor hour based on a budgeted operating level of 6,050 direct labor hours (90% of capacity). If overhead actually incurred was $11,106 during May, the controllable variance for the month was:
Answer: $466 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The Controllable variance is found by the formula:
= Flexible budget overhead - Actual Overhead incurred
= 10,640 - 11,106
= -$466
As this is a negative, it is an Unfavorable variance because it shows that actual overhead was higher than planned.

Nate borrowed $38,672 from bank and his friends to expand his casino business. Nate set up an aim to pay $2,450 at the end of each week for 16 weeks. Assume each year has 52 weeks. What are the nominal rate per year and the effective interest rate per year?
Answer:
Hence, the Nominal annual rate is 20.28%.
Effective annual rate is 22.43%.
Explanation:
Amount borrowed = $38,672.
Weekly repayment for 16 weeks = $2,500.
Loan repayment = (Loan amount x r) / {1-(1+r)-n}
$2,450 = ($38,672 x r)/{1-(1+r)-16}
r= 0.39%
Weekly interest rate = 0.39%
Nominal annual rate = 0.39 % x 52 weeks = 20.28%
Effective annual rate = [tex](1 + 0.0039^{52} ) - 1[/tex] = 0.2243 = 22.43%

Assume that Corn Co. sold 7,600 units of Product A and 2,400 units of Product B during the past year. The unit contribution margins for Products A and B are $34 and $59, respectively. Corn has fixed costs of $378,000. The break-even point in units is a.9,450 units b.11,340 units c.7,560 units d.14,175 units
,Answer: a. 9,450 units
Explanation:
You need to find the weighted average contribution margin for both products.
Product A
Weighted average contribution margin = Contribution margin * Units sold / Total units sold
= 34 * 7,600 / (7,600 + 2,400)
= $25.84
Product B
= 59 * 2,400 / 10,000
= $14.16
Breakeven point in units = Fixed costs/ (Weighted average contribution margin of both A and B)
= 378,000 / (25.84 + 14.16)
= 9,450 units
Dobles Corporation has provided the following data from its activity-based costing system:
Activity Cost Pool Total Cost Total Activity
Assembly $228,060 18,000 mahcine hours
Processing orders $34,068 1200 orders
Inspection $125560 1720 inspection hours
The company makes 420 units of product D28K a year, requiring a total of 460 machine-hours, 80 orders, and 10 inspection-hours per year. The product's direct materials cost is $48.96 per unit and its direct labor cost is $25.36 per unit.
According to the activity-based costing system, the unit product cost of product D28K is closest to:
a. $95.34 per unit
b. $93.60 per unit
c. $74.32 per unit
d. $89.93 per unit
Answer:
Hence the correct option is option (a) i.e. $95.34 per unit.
Explanation:
Cost of 420 units of D28K product = 460 machine hour cost + 80 order cost + 10 inspection hour cost + 420 direct materials cost + 420 direct labor cost.
18000 machine hours = 228060
so 460 machine hours = 228060 x 460 /18000 = 5828.2
1200 orders = 34068
80 orders = 80 x 34068 / 1200 = 2271.2
1720 inspection hours = 125560
10 inspection hours = 10 x 125560/1720 = 730
So cost of 420 units of D28 products = 5828.2 + 2271.2 + 730 + 420 x 48.96 + 420 x 25.36
=40043.8
So cost of 1 D28K product = 40043.8 / 420 = 95.34

Chester delivers 81 units in April. They received payment for 41 units in March, and 41 units in April. In the March income statement, how much revenue is recognized on the March income statement from this order
Answer:
Chester Corporation
Revenue for March Income Statement for this order = $0
Revenue for April Income Statement for this order = $1,215
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
March: orders of 81 units at a price of $15 received = $1,215
Credit terms = 30 days
April, delivery of 81 units
March, payment for 41 units received
April, payment for 41 units received
In the March income statement, no revenue is recognized on the March Income Statement from this order because the delivery is for April. All revenue will be accounted for in April.

out line four roles played by entrepreneurs in Kenya
Answer:
To be a successful entrepreneur it is necessary for the individual to develop essential communication skills, creativity, innovation and the ability to deal with the risks inherent in the business.
A well-positioned and competitive business is one that manages to create value for consumers by offering products and services that satisfy their wants and needs.
In Kenya, entrepreneurship has stood out as a means for citizens to seek employment and income opportunities, especially in opening up trade in products and services.
Entrepreneurship helps a country to develop by moving the economy and improving the population's quality of life, so it is necessary to have government incentives and information available on the subject.
NSDC has a contract to produce 9 satellites to support a worldwide telephone system (for Alaska Telecom, Inc.) that allows individuals to use a single, portable telephone in any location on earth to call in and out. NSDC will develop and produce the 9 units. NSDC has estimated that the R&D costs will be NOK (Norwegian Krone) 12,000,000. Material costs are expected to be NOK 6,000,000. They have estimated the design and production of the first satellite will require 100,000 labor hours and an 80 percent improvement curve is expected. Skilled labor cost is NOK 300 per hour. Desired profit for all projects is 25 percent of total costs.
A. How many labor hours should the eighth satellite require?
B. How many labor hours for the whole project of eight satellites?
C. What price would you ask for the project? Why?
D. Midway through the project your design and production people realize that a 75 percent improvement curve is more appropriate. What impact does this have on the project?
E. Near the end of the project Deutsch Telefon AG has requested a cost estimate for four satellites identical to those you have already produced. What price will you quote them? Justify your price.
we have the following information:
R&D = NOK 12000000
Materials = 6000000
Labour hours = 100000
Improvement curve = 80%
Skilled labour = 300/hour
Desired profit = 25%
a. Number of hours:
Using the learning curves table, the value for 80% in the 8th unit is = 0.5120
therefore the number of learning hours = 100000 x 0.5120
= 51200 hours
the eight satellite would need 51200 hours of labor
b. The labour hours for the whole project of 8
The corresponding value using the learning curves cumulative value table = 5.346
so the labour hours = 100000*5.346
= 534600 hours
The whole project requires 534600 hours.
c. Price for the project
We first find the total cost of the project
Total cost of labor = required hours x cost of labor
= 534600 x NOK300
= 160380000
Then we find the margin of profit
25% x total cost
25% (160380000 + 12000000 + 6000000)
= 178380000 x 0.25
= 44595000
The proposed price would be
44595000+160380000+12000000+6000000
= 222,975,000 NOK
the total price is 222,975,000 NOK. This is the price I would ask for.
D. a 75% rate is = 4.802 at 8 units in the cumulative values table.
Total hours = 100000x4.802
= 480200 hours
Total hours = 480200x 300
= 144060000
profit margin = 25% (144060000x6000000x12000000)
= 40515000
The impact that this has is that the profit margin has now fallen from 44595000 Nok to 40515000 NOK
E.
To build these satellites NSDC had 6million NOK
6million/2 = 3000000
4 units at 80 percent in the learning curve = 3.142
100000x3.142 = 314200 hours
Total cost of labor = 314200 hours x 300
= 94260000 NOK
Profit margin = 25% x 94260000 x 12000000 x 3000000
= 27315000 NOK
The justified price that i would quote them = 27315000+94260000+3000000+12000000
= 136575000 NOK
This is the proposed price for the 4

Bengal Co. provides the following unit sales forecast for the next three months: July August September Sales units 4,800 5,500 5,360 The company wants to end each month with ending finished goods inventory equal to 25% of the next month's sales. Finished goods inventory on June 30 is 1,200 units. The budgeted production units for July are: Multiple Choice 6,000 units. 3,600 units. 6,175 units. 2,400 units. 4,975 units.
Answer: 4,975 units
Explanation:
Budgeted production in July = Sales forecast for July + Ending inventory for July - Beginning inventory
Beginning inventory = 25% of July sales
= 25% * 4,800
= 1,200 units
Ending inventory = 25% of August sales
= 25% * 5,500
= 1,375 units
Budgeted production is therefore:
= 4,800 + 1,375 - 1,200
= 4,975 units
Assuming a 360-day year, proceeds of $48,750 were received from discounting a $50,000, 90-day note at a bank. The discount rate used by the bank in computing the proceeds was
Answer:
the discount rate should be 10%
Explanation:
The computation of the discount rate should be given below:
The Amount of discount is is
= $50,000 - $48,750
= $ 1,250
The $1,250 should be for 90 days.
So for 360 days, it should be
= $1,250 × 4
= $5,000.
And, the discount rate is
= $5,000 ÷ 50,000 × 100
= 10%
Hence, the discount rate should be 10%

Various shareholders' equity topics; comprehensive
Part A
In late 2010, the Nicklaus Corporation was formed. The corporate charter authorizes the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of common stock carrying a $1 par value, and 1,000,000 shares of $5 par value, noncumulative, nonparticipating preferred stock. On January 2, 2011, 3,000,000 shares of the common stock are issued in exchange for cash at an average price of $10 per share. Also on January 2, all 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock are issued at $20 per share.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record these transactions.
2. Prepare the shareholders' equity section of the Nicklaus balance sheet as of March 31, 2011. (Assume net income for the first quarter 2011 was $1,000,000.)
Part B
During 2011, the Nicklaus Corporation participated in three treasury stock transactions:
a. On June 30, 2011, the corporation reacquires 200,000 shares for the treasury at a price of $12 per share.
b. On July 31, 2011, 50,000 treasury shares are reissued at $15 per share.
c. On September 30, 2011, 50,000 treasury shares are reissued at $10 per share.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record these transactions.
2. Prepare the Nicklaus Corporation shareholders' equity section as it would appear in a balance sheet prepared at September 30, 2011. (Assume net income for the second and third quarter was $3,000,000.)
Part C
On October 1, 2011, Nicklaus Corporation receives permission to replace its $1 par value common stock (5,000,000 shares authorized, 3,000,000 shares issued, and 2,900,000 shares outstanding) with a new common stock issue having a $.50 par value. Since the new par value is one-half the amount of the old, this represents a 2-for-1 stock split. That is, the shareholders will receive two shares of the $.50 par stock in exchange for each share of the $1 par stock they own. The $1 par stock will be collected and destroyed by the issuing corporation.
On November 1, 2011, the Nicklaus Corporation declares a $.05 per share cash dividend on common stock and a $.25 per share cash dividend on preferred stock. Payment is scheduled for December 1, 2011, to shareholders of record on November 15, 2011.
On December 2, 2011, the Nicklaus Corporation declares a 1% stock dividend payable on December 28, 2011, to shareholders of record on December 14. At the date of declaration, the common stock was selling in the open market at $10 per share. The dividend will result in 58,000 (.01 × 5,800,000) additional shares being issued to shareholders.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record the declaration and payment of these stock and cash dividends.
2. Prepare the December 31, 2011, shareholders' equity section of the balance sheet for the Nicklaus Corporation. (Assume net income for the fourth quarter was $2,500,000.)
3. Prepare a statement of shareholders' equity for Nicklaus Corporation for 2011.

Direct labor variances Bellingham Company produces a product that requires 3 standard direct labor hours per unit at a standard hourly rate of $22.00 per hour. 15,000 units used 61,900 hours at an hourly rate of $19.85 per hour. What is the direct labor (a) rate variance, (b) time variance, and (c) cost variance? Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
a. Direct labor rate variance $ Favorable
b. Direct labor time variance $ Unfavorable
c. Direct labor cost variance $ Favorable
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the direct labor rate variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Direct labor rate variance= (22 - 19.85)*61,900
Direct labor rate variance= $133,085
Now, the direct labor time (efficiency variance):
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (45,000 - 61,900)*22
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $371,800 unfavorable
Standard quantity= 15,000*3= 45,000
Finally, the total direct labor cost variance:
Total direct labor cost variance= Direct labor rate variance - Direct labor time (efficiency) variance
Total direct labor cost variance= 133,085 - 371,800
Total direct labor cost variance= $238,715 unfavorable
