Answer:
B) Cash 3, 200 Sales Tax Payable 200 Sales Revenue 3,000
Explanation:
The journal entry is shown below:
Cash $3,200
To Sales tax payable $200
To Sales revenue $3,000
(Being the sales and sales tax is recorded)
For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the sales tax payable and sales revenue as it also increased the liabilities and revenue
Therefore, option B is correct
Lily Products Company is considering an investment in one of two new product lines. The investment required for either product line is $540,000. The net cash flows associated with each product are as follows:Year Liquid Soap Body Lotion 1 $170,000 $90,000 2 150,000 90,000 3 120,000 90,000 4 100,000 90,000 5 70,000 90,000 6 40,000 90,000 7 40,000 90,000 8 30,000 90,000Total $720,000 $720,000a. Recommend a product offering to Lily Products Company, based on the cash payback period for each product line. b. Why is one product line preferred over the other, even though they both have the same total net cash flows through eight periods?
Answer:
Liquid soap
B. The liquid soap would be chosen because its pay back period is shorter than that of the body lotion.
even though both projects have the same total cash flows, the liquid soap project has greater cash flows in the ealier years compared to the other project. This makes the amount invested to be recovered more quickly and this makes it more desirable.
Explanation:
Cash payback period measures how long it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flow.
Cash payback for the liquid soap.
Amount invested = $-540,000
In the first year , the amount recovered = $- 540,000 + $170,000 = $-370,000
In the second year , the amount recovered = $-370,000 + 150,000 = $-220,000
In the third year , the amount recovered = $- 220,000 + 120,000 =$ -100,000
In the 4th year, the amount recovered = $ -100,000 + $100,000 =0
The total amount invested is recovered In the 4th year
Cash payback period for the body option =
Amount invested / net cash flows
$540,000 / $90,000 = 6 years
The amount invested is recovered In the 6th year
The liquid soap would be chosen because its pay back period is shorter than that of the body lotion.
even though both projects have the same total cash flows, the liquid soap project has greater cash flows in the ealier years compared to the other project. This makes the amount invested to be recovered more quickly and this makes it more desirable.

Direct Materials Variances Silicone Engine Inc. produces wrist-worn tablet computers. The company uses Thin Film Crystal (TFC) LCD displays for its products. Each tablet uses one display. The company produced 580 tablets during December. However, due to LCD defects, the company actually used 600 LCD displays during December. Each display has a standard cost of $15.00. Six hundred LCD displays were purchased for December production at a cost of $8,550. Determine the price variance, quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance for December. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. Price variance $ Quantity variance $ Total direct materials cost variance $
Answer:
The price variance is -$450 favorable
The quantity variance is $300 unfavorable
The Total direct materials cost variance is -$150 favorable
Explanation:
According to given data we have the following:
standard price=$15
Actual price=$8,550/600=$14.25
standard quantity=580
Actual quantity=600
To calculate the price variance, quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance for December we would have to make the following calculations:
price variance=(Actual price-standard price)*Actual quantity
price variance=($14.25-$15)*600
price variance=-$450 favourable
quantity variance=(Actual quantity-standard quantity)*standard price
quantity variance=(600-580)*$15
quantity variance=$300 unfavorable
total direct materials cost variance=materials price variance+material quantity variance
total direct materials cost variance=-$450+$300
total direct materials cost variance=-$150
Comparing marginal revenue to marginal cost (i) reveals the contribution of the last unit of production to total profit. (ii) is helpful in making profit-maximizing production decisions. (iii) tells a firm whether its fixed costs are too high. a. (i) only b. (i) and (ii) only c. (ii) and (iii) only d. (i) and (iii) only
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Marginal revenue is defined as an incremental revenue generated from the sales of an additional unit of a product and services while a a marginal cost is an incremental cost incurred from the production of additional unit of a goods and services
Looking at these definitions , it can be inferred that marginal revenue reveals the contribution of the last unit of production to the total unit as well as helping in making profit maximizing decision in a production process

Determine whether each of the following topics would more likely be studied in microeconomics or microeconomics.1. The effect of a large government budget deficit on the economy's price levela. microeconomicsb. macroeconomics2. The effect of an increase in the money supply on the rate of inflationa. microeconomicsb. macroeconomics3. The effect of government regulation on a monopolist's production decisionsa. microeconomicsb. macroeconomics
Answer:
1. B
2. B
3. A
Explanation:
1. The effect of a large government budget deficit on the economy's price level: is Macroeconomics.
2. The effect of an increase in the money supply on the rate of inflation: is Macroeconomics.
3. The effect of government regulation on a monopolist's production decisions: is Microeconomics.
Generally, Economics can be classified into two (2) categories, namely;
1. Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Hence, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.
2. Microeconomics can be defined as the study of the effect of price and quantity levels through interactions between individual buyers and sellers in various markets.
Hence, it is focuses on analyzing or evaluating the decisions of consumers (buyers) and those of firms (sellers) such as methods of production, pricing; and the manner in which government policies affect those decisions.
In an indefinitely repeated game, a firm might use a ________ to ________ a rival that defects from a cooperative strategy. A. trigger strategy; threaten B. trigger strategy; punish C. legal maneuver; sue D. tacit threat; dissuade
Answer:
Option B is correct
Explanation:
In an indefinitely repeated game, a firm might use a trigger strategy to punish a rival that defects from a cooperative strategy. A trigger strategy threatens other players with a punishment of a worse level if they deviate from the decided action profile.
In this game, players interact repeatedly with each other which might foster cooperation. Repeated games mean a situation in which the same stage game is played at each date.

Based on the following data and using a 365-day year:
12/31/Year 1 accounts receivable $100,000
12/31/Year 2 accounts receivable 70,000
For the year ended 12/31/Year 1, sales 1,050,000
For the year ended 12/31/Year 2, sales 1,200,000
A. Compute the accounts receivable turnover.
B. Compute the number of days' sales in receivables for year.
C. The industry average turnover is 20 times during the year, and the number of days' sales in receivables averages 25. How does this situation compare to the industry average?
D. Is it slightly better or slightly worse than the average?
Answer:
A. 14 times
B. 21 days
C. For accounts receivable turnover, the computed 14 days is less than the industry average of 20. For the the number of days' sales in receivables, the computed 21 days is less than the industry average of 25.
D. It is slightly better than the average
Explanation:
Note that the relevant year this question is related is Year 2 which is the latest year. The questions are therefore answer as follows:
A. Compute the accounts receivable turnover.
Average accounts receivable = (12/31/Year 1 accounts receivable + 12/31/Year 2 accounts receivable) / 2 = $100,000 + $70,000 = $85,000
Accounts receivable turnover = Year 2 Sales / Average accounts receivable = $1,200,000 / $85,000 = 14.12, or approximately 14 times
B. Compute the number of days' sales in receivables for year.
Number of days' sales in receivables for year 2 = (Year 2 accounts receivable / Year 2 Sales) * 365 = ($70,000 / $1,200,000) * 365 = 21.29, or approximately 21 days
C. The industry average turnover is 20 times during the year, and the number of days' sales in receivables averages 25. How does this situation compare to the industry average?
The computed accounts receivable turnover of 14 times is less than the industry average turnover of 20 times.
Also, the computed number of days' sales in receivables for year 2 of 21 days is less than the industry average number of days' sales in receivables of 25 days.
D. Is it slightly better or slightly worse than the average?
For accounts receivable turnover, it is slightly better than average as the computed one indicates that the business can 14 times turn its accounts receivable into cash during the year as against 20 times industry average which is higher.
Also for the number of days' sales in receivables for year, it is slightly better than average as the computed one indicates that it takes the business just 21 days to collect cash from his customers on average as against the 25 days industry average which is higher.
Both therefore indicates that It is slightly better than the average.

Miscavage Corporation has two divisions: the Beta Division and the Alpha Division. The Beta Division has sales of $580,000, variable expenses of $301,600, and traceable fixed expenses of $186,500. The Alpha Division has sales of $510,000, variable expenses of $178,500, and traceable fixed expenses of $222,100. The total amount of common fixed expenses not traceable to the individual divisions is $235,500. What is the company's net operating income? Select one: a. $374,400 b. $201,300 c. $609,900 d. ($34,200)
Answer:
Net income= -$34,200
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beta Division:
Sales= $580,000
Variable expenses= $301,600
Traceable fixed expenses of $186,500.
Income= 91,900
Alpha Division:
Sales of $510,000
Variable expenses of $178,500
Traceable fixed expenses of $222,100.
Income= 109,400
The total amount of common fixed expenses not traceable to the individual divisions is $235,500.
We need to deduct from the income of each division the not traceable fixed costs.
Net income= 91,900 + 109,400 - 235,500
Net income= -$34,200

A sewage treatment revenue bond issue is being underwritten on a negotiated basis. The offering consists of $50,000,000 par value of term bonds. The underwriter has agreed to a spread of $45.00 for each $5,000 bond. The manager has set the additional takedown at $20.00 per bond and the selling concession at $22.00 per bond. If a selling group member sells a $5,000 par value bond directly to the public, the selling group member earns:____________
Answer:
The multiple choices are :
a.$8
b.$20
c.$22
d.$45
The correct option is C.$22
Explanation:
The earnings accruing to the selling group is the selling concession of $22 per $5,000 per bond.
Option A is obviously wrong as there is nothing in the questions that suggest earnings of $8 per bond for the selling group.
Option D is wrong as well because $45 per bond is the spread which is the extra yield to bondholders when compared to investment in government securities
The following costs result from the production and sale of 1,000 drum sets manufactured by Tight Drums Company for the year ended December 31. 2019. The drum sets sell for $500 each. The company has a 25% income tax rate. For each dollar of sales, how much is left to cover fixed costs and contribute to operating income.
Answer:
$0.72
Explanation:
total direct materials = $125,000
total variable selling costs = $15,000
total variable costs = $140,000
variable cost per unit = $140,000 / 1,000 units = $140 per unit
contribution margin ratio = (sales price - variable cost) / sales price = ($500 - $140) / $500 = 72%
this means that per dollar of sales, $0.72 are left to cover fixed costs and contribute to operating income
Job 731 was recently completed. The following data have been recorded on its job cost sheet: Direct Materials: $2,500 Direct Labor hours: 100 Direct Labor wage rate: $10.00 per hour The company applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor cost. The pre-determined overhead rate is 150% of direct labor cost. The total cost that would be recorded on the job cost sheet for job 731 would be:
Answer:
Total cost= $5,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Job 731:
Direct Materials= $2,500
Direct Labor hours= 100
Direct Labor wage rate: $10.00 per hour
First, we need to calculate the direct labor cost and then allocate overhead:
Direct labor= 100*10= $1,000
Allocated overhead= 1,000*1.5= $1,500
Total cost= 2,500 + 1,000 + 1,500
Total cost= $5,000
Manitowoc Crane (U.S.) exports heavy crane equipment to several Chinese dock facilities. Sales are currently 16.000 units per year at the yuan equivalent of $25.000 each. the Chinese yuan (renminbi) has been trading at Yuan8.40/$, but a Hong Kong advisory service predicts the renminbi will drop in value next week to Yuan9.10/$, after which it will remain unchanged for at least a decade. Accepting this forecast as given, Manitowoc Crane faces a pricing decision in the face of the impending devaluation. It may either (1) maintain the same yuan price and in effect sell for fewer dollars, in which case Chinese volume will not change; or (2) maintain the same dollar price, raise the yuan price in China to offset the devaluation, and experience a 10% drop in unit volume Direct costs are 75% of the U.S. sales price. a. What would be the short-run (one-year) impact of each pricing strategy? Which do you recommend? If Manitowoc Crane maintains the same yuan price and same unit volume, what will be the firm's gross profits? (Round to the nearest dollar.) b. If Manitowoc Crane maintains the same dollar price, raises the yuan price in China to offset the devaluation, and experiences a 10% drop in unit volume, what will be the firm's gross profits? (Round to the nearest dollar.) Which do you recommend?
Answer:
Explanation:
a) Yuan price before devaluation = 25000 × 8.4 = Y210,000
Dollar price after devaluation = 210000/9.1 = $23,076.92
Total sales = 16000 × 23076 = 369230720
COGS = 16000 × 25000 × 75% = 300000000
Gross profit 69230720
Dollar price after devaluation = $25000
Total sales = 16000 × 90% × 25000 = 360000000
COGS = 16000*90%× 25000 ×75% = 270000000
Gross profit 90000000
b) Maintaining the same dollar price is better because it yields higher profits.

This proprietary funds consist of a pool of money and assets owned by investors and customers and are usually managed by financial institutions such as a bank.
Parallel sentences are balanced and easy for readers to understand.
Choose which sentence has the better parallel structure.
1. Although the presentation is extremely long, it outlines the research, analyzes the data, and provides clear recommendations that are useful in the future.
2. Although the presentation was extremely long, it outlined the research, analyzed the data, and provided clear recommendations that will be useful in the future.
Answer: 2. Although the presentation was extremely long, it outlined the research, analyzed the data, and provided clear recommendations that will be useful in the future.
Explanation:
Parallel Sentences are constructed when you used the same grammatical form across the entire sentence. This way the sentence is balanced and easier to read.
For example, Sophia likes reading, hiking and watching television. As opposed to, Sophia likes reading, hiking and watch Television. The watch in the sentence is not using the grammatical form that is the present participle which is present in most of the sentence.
The correct sentence above therefore is the second one.
It uses the same form throughout the sentence by putting it in past tense.

D. $12,000,000
Answer:
Instructions are below
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The current market price of the electric wire is $770 per unit.
The company has $3,000,000 in average assets, and the desired profit is a return of 5% on assets.
Sales volume 110,000 units per year
Variable costs $660 per unit
Fixed costs $14,000,000 per year
The company's objective is 5% of average assets. In this case, $150,000.
Total contribution margin= 110,000*110= 12,100,000
Fixed costs= (14,000,000)
Net operating profit= (1,900,000)
Target profit= 150,000
Target fixed costs= Contribution margin - target profit
Target fixed costs= 12,100,000 - 150,000= 11,950,000
Prove:
Total contribution margin= 110,000*110= 12,100,000
Fixed costs= (11,950,000)
Net operating profit= 150,000
It costs Garrison Company $9.50 of variable and $5.20 of fixed costs to produce one bathroom scale which normally sells for $19.70. A foreign wholesaler offers to purchase 2,600 scales at $12.20 each. Garrison will incur special shipping costs of $1.70 per scale if the order is accepted. Garrison has sufficient unused capacity to accommodate the order. If the special order is accepted, what will be the effect on net income?
Answer:
Effect on income= $2,600 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
It costs Garrison Company $9.50 of variable costs.
A foreign wholesaler offers to purchase 2,600 scales at $12.20 each. Garrison will incur special shipping costs of $1.70 per scale if the order is accepted.
Because it a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs:
Effect on income= units sold*contribution margin per unit
Effect on income= 2,600*(12.2 - 9.5 - 1.7)
Effect on income= $2,600 increase
David Jones, the new administrator for a surgical clinic, was trying to determine how to allocate his indirect expenses. His staff was complaining that the current method of taking a percentage of revenues was unfair. He decided to try to allocate utilities based on square footage of each department, administration based on direct costs, and laboratory based on tests. Use the information in the chart below to answer the question.
Square Footage Direct Expenses Lab Tests
Utilities 200,000
Administration 2,000 500,000
Laboratory 2,000 625,000
Day-op Suite 3,000 1,400,000 4,000
Cystoscopy 1,500 350,000 500
Endoscopy 1,500 300,000 500
Total 10,000 3,375,000 5,000
Based on the scenario above, what are the Cystoscopy Department's total expenses?
Answer:
The Cystoscopy Department's total expenses are $380,500
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
For Cystoscopy Department,
(A) The Direct Expenses are $350,000

We should need to calculate the allocation of Utilities for 1500 square feet and then add all these 3 costs.
Total Square feet is 10,000 and Total Expenses for Utilities is $200,000
So per Square foot expense for Utilities = $200,000 / 10,000 = 20 per square foot
(C) So, for Utilities having 1,500 square foot space, the cost allocated = 1,500 X 20 = $30,000
Adding all (A) + (B) + (C), the total expenses for Cystoscopy Department are
$350,000 + $500 + $30,000 = $380,500
The Cystoscopy Department's total expenses are $380,500
Carroll Corporation has two products, Q and P. During June, the company's net operating income was $19,500, and the common fixed expenses were $43,000. The contribution margin ratio for Product Q was 40%, its sales were $128,000, and its segment margin was $35,000. If the contribution margin for Product P was $33,000, the segment margin for Product P was:
Answer:
Segment margin of product P-$27,500.00
Explanation:
The total company's segment margin is net income plus common fixed expenses.
Total segment margin=$19,500+$43,000=$62,500.00
Total segment margin can be determined as the segment margin of products Q and P
Segment margin of product Q is $35,000
segment margin of product P=$62,500-$35,000=$ 27,500.00
Hence ,the segment margin of product P is $ 27,500.00

Explanation:
A municipal power plant uses natural gas from an existing, leaky, pipeline at an annual cost of $40,000 per year. A new pipeline would initially cost $100,000, but it would reduce the annual cost of natural gas to $10,000 per year. Assume an analysis period of 25 years and no salvage value for either pipeline. The interest rate is 6%. Using annual equivalent cost (AEC), should the new pipeline be built?
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the annual equivalent cost by using following formula:-
Annual Equivalent Cost (AEC) = Initial Cost × [Interest Rate × (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years ÷ (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years - 1} + Annual Cost Per Year
= $100,000 × [0.06 × (1 + 0.06)^25 ÷ (1 + 0.06)^25 - 1] + $10,000
= $100,000 × [0.06 × 4.291871 ÷ 4.291871 - 1] + $10,000
= $100,000 × [0.2575123 ÷ 3.291871] + $10,000
= $100,000 × 0.07823 + $10,000
= $7,823 + $10,000
= $17,823
According to the analysis, the annual cost of new pipeline $17,823 is less than 40,000. So the new pipeline should built.
rene’s Dairy is deciding whether or not to enter the market for ice cream, currently monopolized by Mattie’s Ice-cream. If it enters the market, Mattie’s can either accommodate him and share his 10million in profits equally with Irene or fight him and cause a 5million loss for each in a price war. What would the Nash equilibrium be in this sequential game?
Answer:
Enter, accommodate
Explanation:
Nash equilibrium is a concept of game theory that stated that the optimal outcome for an entity is that they have no incentive to deviate from their original strategy after considering their opponent's choice.
It is a logical and mathematical way by which an entity determines the best outcome for themselves.
In this scenario the best option is to Enter and accommodate.
For Irene if they enter and accommodate the most optimal outcome is that they will get $5 million in profits. If they fight they will lose $5 million. They will enter because they know Mattie will lose $5 million is they fight.
For Mattie if they fight Irene they will lose $5million which is worse that sharing their profit.
So the best option after considering beach other's strategy is to accommodate and share the profits
Place in order the events that occur in the short run when the Federal Reserve enacts expansionary monetary policy.
a. The increased borrowing leads to increased investment and purchasing of goods and services.
b. The aggregate demand curve shifts rightward.
c. Market equilibrium shifts toward more money being lent at a lower interest rate.
d. As the Fed buys bonds, new money enters the loanable funds market.
The order should be
1. As the fed buys bonds, new money enters the loanable funds market.
2. Market equilibrium shifts towards more money being lent at lower interest rates.
3. The increased borrowing leads to increased investment and purchasing of goods and services
4. The aggregate demand curve shifts rightwards.
The following information should be considered:
In the case when the federal reserve should considered the expansionary monetary policy so it purchased the bonds from the open market. The banking system liquidity should increased but the lending rate is decreased. Now if the rate of interest is less so the spending in an investment should be increased.Due to this, it trigerred the economic growth and the aggregrate demand curve should be shifted to the right.

Answer:
Determine the amount of Sales Revenue Sun Devil can recognize on Jan 1, 2019: $567,430
Determine the carrying value of the Note Receivable at December 31, 2021: $711,780
Determine the Total Interest Revenue Sun Devil will earn over the entire 5-year lending agreement: $1,308,114
Explanation:
the present value of the notes receivable = future value / (1 + 12%)⁵ or we can calculate using the annuity = $1,000,000 x 0.56743 = $567,430
the value of the note receivable 2 years later = future value / (1 + 12%)³ or again use the annuity = $1,000,000 x 0.71178 = $711,780
total interest revenue = ($1,000,000 x 8%) x annuity factor (2%, 20 payments) = $80,000 x 16.35143 = $1,308,114
Powell Plastics, Inc. (PP) currently has zero debt. Its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $80,000, and it is a zero growth company. PP’s current cost of equity is 10%, and its tax rate is 40%. The firm has 10,000 shares of common stock outstanding selling at a price per share of $48.00. Assume that PP is considering changing from its original capital structure to a new capital structure with 35% debt and 65% equity. This results in a weighted average cost of capital equal to 9.4% and a new value of operations of $510,638. Assume PP raises $178,723 in new debt and purchases T-bills to hold until it makes the stock repurchase. PP then sells the T-bills and uses the proceeds to repurchase stock. How many shares remain after the repurchase, and what is the stock price per share immediately after the repurchase?
Answer:
How many shares remain after the repurchase, and what is the stock price per share immediately after the repurchase?
6,500 stocks remaining at $64.33 each stockExplanation:
EBIT $80,000
zero growth rate
Cost of equity (Re) 10%
tax rate 40%
10,000 common stocks outstanding at $48
they want to change from 100% equity to 35% debt and 65% equity
WACC = 9.4%
new value of operations $510,638
PP's value of operations = {$80,000 x (1 - 40%)} / WACC = $510,638
the new stock price should = $510,638 / 10,000 stocks = $51.06
Stock price will be $51.06
approximately $178,723 / $51.06 = 3,500 stocks should be repurchased
9.4% = ($480,000/$658,723 x 10%) + ($178,723/$658,723 x cost of debt x (1 - 40%)
9.4% = 7.29% + ($178,723/$658,723 x cost of debt x (1 - 40%)
2.11% = 0.2713 x cost of debt x 0.6
2.11% = 0.1628 x cost of debt
cost of debt = 2.11%/0.1628 = 12.96%
new WACC = ($178,710/$357,433 x 10%) + ($178,723/$357,433 x 12.96% x 0.6) = 5% + 6.48% = 11.48%
PP's value of operations = {$80,000 x 0.6} / 11.48% = $418,118
the new stock price should = $418,118 / 6,500 stocks = $64.33
