Answer: a. $10,000. b. $0
Explanation:
Lobbying expenses are the money that are used to influence a legislative body either at the federal, state or local level. I'm general, the lobbying expenses are not typically deductible. The amount that was paid to the trade association which was not part of the lobbying will be as deduction.
a. We are told that the trade association estimates that 60% of its dues are allocated to lobbying activities. This means that (100% - 60%) = 40% wasn't part of the lobbying expenses. We will now find 40% of $25,000. This will be:
= 40% of $25,000
= 40/100 × $25000
= 0.4 × $25000
= $10,000
Therefore, the total deductible expense for tax purposes is $10,000
b. We are told that the $25,000 was incurred for in-house lobbying expenses. Therefore Printers Company's total deductible expense for tax purposes will be $0.

At December 31, the unadjusted trial balance of R&M Entertainment reports Unearned Revenue of $3,001 and Service Revenues of $33,944. 53% of the unearned revenue has been earned as of December 31. When R&M prepares the adjusting entry on December 31, what is the amount that will be reported as a liability on the balance sheet as of December 31?\
Answer:
$1410.47
Explanation:
Unearned revenue is the revenue upon which cash has been received by the entity prior to the entity discharging its responsibility of providing services in respect of the payment,hence it is a liability until it is finally earned and recorded as revenue.
The balance of the unearned revenue is the liability that R&M must report in its balance sheet as of December 31.
Balance of unearned revenue=$3,001-($3,001*53%)
balance of unearned revenue=$3,001-$1590.53 =$1410.47
Assume that all investors have the same information and care only about expected return and volatility. If new information arrives about one stock, can this information affect the price and return of other stocks? If so, explain why? If new information arrives about one stock, can this information affect the price and return of other stocks?
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Yes, because with the existence of the new information, there would be changes in attractiveness of the stock. If there are no changes in other stock prices, it, would change the expected return on this stock. If expected return was to go up, then investors would be interested in this stock, implying they would not be holding the market portfolio.
New information regarding stock attracts investors, leading to shift in portfolio of investor. With greater demand for the particular stock, revenues/prices of other stock declines. This is because, investor becomes more attracted to buying that particular stock and other stocks are sold off in the market.
During 2017, Eaton Co. introduced a new product carrying a two-year warranty against defects. The estimated warranty costs related to dollar sales are 4% within 12 months following sale and 6% in the second 12 months following sale. Sales and actual warranty expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018 are as follows:
Actual Warranty
Sales Expenditures
2017 $ 400,000 $8,000
2018 600,000 14,000
$1,000,000 $22,000
At December 31, 2018, (assuming the accrual method) what amount should be reported as an estimated warranty liability?
Why are warranties recorded as an expense in the year of the sale, i.e., what accounting principle applies?
Answer:
1. $82,000
2. Accrual / Matching Principle
Explanation:
The two year warranty against defects is known as an Assurance Type Warranty.
With Assurance Type Warranty, there is no option on the customer to take the warranty or not. Therefore this is not a separate performance obligation.
Assurance Type Warranty are accounted for in terms of IAS 37 Provisions.
At December 31, 2018, the Warranty Expense is calculated as follows :
Sales 2017 : $ 400,000 × 6% = $ 24,000
Sales 2018 : $ 600,000 × 12% = $ 72,000
Total = $ 96,000
Journal
Warranty Expense $ 96,000 (debit)
Warranty Provision $ 96,000 (credit)
When Warranty Claim is Subsequently received in 2018 the entries will be as follows :
Journal
Warranty Provision $14,000 (debit)
Cash $14,000 (credit)
Thus Warranty Liability will be : $ 96,000 - $14,000 = $82,000

A $38,000 coil winding and unwinding machine is estimated to provide additional value to production by $15 per unit. When the machine is operated at 58 units per hour, it needs to be cooled down after 4 hours of operation and receive minor maintenance for 15 minutes. When the machine is operated at 118 units per hour, it needs to be cooled down after 5 hours of operation and receive minor maintenance for 30 minutes. The production line runs 8 hours per day. If each maintenance check costs $625 and the machine has a useful life of 80,000 hours of operations, at what speed should the machine should be operated
Answer: 118 units per hour
Explanation:
At 58 units per hour:
The cycle time = 4 hours + 0.25 hours
= 4.25 hours
The cycle per day = 8/4.25 = 1.88 cycle
The value added per day will be:
= 1.88 × 4 × 58 × 15
= $6542.4
The cost of maintenance per day will be: = 1.88 × $625 = $1175
The cost of operating the machine per day will be:
= $38,000/80,000 × 4 × 1.88
= $3.57
The net increase in the value per day will be:
= $6542.4 - $1175 - $3.57
= $5363.83
At 118 units per hour:
The cycle time = 5 hours + 0.5 hours
= 5.5 hours
The cycle per day = 8/5.5 = 1.45 cycle
The value added per day will be:
= 1.45 × 5 × 118 × 15
= $12832.5
The cost of maintenance per day will be: = 1.45 × $625 = $906.25
The cost of operating the machine per day will be:
= $38,000/80,000 × 5 × 1.45
= $3.44
The net increase in the value per day will be:
= $128322.5 - $906.25 - $3.44
= $11922.81
The machine should be operated at 118 units per hour because it gives a higher value.

Your boss makes an intentional effort to understand the emotion or mood of the office at all times. Your boss uses that information when assigning team members to specific projects or when communicating with the team as a whole or as individuals. These behaviors are examples of ______.
Answer:
The correct answer is: emotional intelligence.
Explanation:
To begin with, the concept of "emotional intelligence", in the field of business, refers to the capability of individuals to recognize their own emotions and also the ones of the others around him, in order to use that information with the purpose of guiding or leading the thinking and behavior of the group or team in order to establish better results when working together as a whole. That is why, when your boss is making an intentional effort to understand the emotions of all the office and use that information to assign the teams, then he is using the emotional intelligence to work better.
Cambridge Manufacturing Company applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of machine hours. At the beginning of the year, the company estimated its total overhead cost to be $325,000 and machine hours to be 25,000. Actual manufacturing overhead and machine hours were $372,000 and 26,000, respectively. Required: 1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate. 2. Compute applied manufacturing overhead. 3. Compute over- or underapplied manufacturing overhead.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The estimated total overhead= $325,000
Estimated machine hours= 25,000
Actual manufacturing overhead and machine hours were $372,000 and 26,000, respectively.
First, we need to calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 325,000/25,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $13 per machine-hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 13*26,000= $338,000
Finally, we determine the under/over allocation:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 372,000 - 338,000= $34,000 underallocated
Thomas Company has decided to purchase a company vehicle. The accountant was given all of purchase details. Which should be used to record the vehicle in the accounting records? The price negotiated with the dealer. The manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP). The amount of the loan with the bank. The average selling price of similar vehicles in the area.
Answer:
The price negotiated with the dealer.
Explanation:
Since in the question it is mentioned that the Thomas company decided to purchase a company vehicle. And the accountant provided all the purchase details.
So for recording the vehicle in the accounting records the price negotiated with the dealer is used as in the accounting, only numbers are recorded which are based on the type of the transactions.
The purchase details includes color of a vehicle, price, mileage, capacity, etc
Therefore for accounting purpose, we only considered the price and the same is to be considered.
Complete the following table by selecting the redistributive philosophy that matches each statement. Statement Utilitarianism Libertarianism Liberalism The government should punish crimes and enforce voluntary agreements, but not redistribute income. The government should choose policies deemed to be just, as evaluated by an impartial observer behind a "veil of ignorance." The government should choose policies to maximize the total utility of everyone in society. Suppose that Neha believes that the government should aim to raise the welfare of the poorest people in society, because if we all started in the exact same position in life and then created rules and laws to obey as a society, people would be concerned about ending up at the bottom of the income distribution. Which redistributive philosophy is consistent with Neha's view.
a. Liberalismb. Libertarianismc. Utilitarianism
Answer: Please see below.
Explanation:
The government should punish crimes and enforce voluntary agreements, but not redistribute income----libertarianism
The government should choose policies deemed to be just, as evaluated by an impartial observer behind a "veil of ignorance.----liberalism
The government should choose policies to maximize the total utility of everyone in society--
utilitarianism
---Nehas philosophy here as an impartial observer is void of self interest and is of the opinion that if government be just and equal in it's redistribution by raising the welfare of the poorest people in society, then people will strive to avoid being at the bottom of income distribution, this means that Nehas philosophy seeks policies that are just and therefore is consistent with -liberalism.
On October 1, 2018, Iona Bell Co. issued stock options for 300,000 shares to a division manager. The options have an estimated fair value of $3 each. To provide additional incentive for managerial achievement, the options are not exercisable unless divisional revenue increases by 6% in three years. Bell initially estimates that it is not probable the goal will be achieved, but then after one year, Bell estimates that it is probable that divisional revenue will increase by 6% by the end of 2020. Bell will:
a. record compensation expense of zero in 2019 and in 2020
b. record compensation expense of $300,000 in 2019 and $300,000 in 2020.
c. record compensation expense of $450,000 in 2019 and $450,000 in 2020.
d. record compensation expense of $600,000 in 2019 and $300,000 in 2020.
Answer: d. record compensation expense of $600,000 in 2019 and $300,000 in 2020.
Explanation:
In 2019, with 2 years left on the on the incentive, the Iona Bell's estimate has changed from not believing that the target could be reached to believing that it could.
This will move their estimate for Compensation from 0 in 2018 to (300,000 * $3) $900,000 at the end of 2020.
They will have to account for it across the 2 remaining years.
In 2019, with 2 years out of 3 elapsed, they will apportion it in this manner ,
= 900,000 * 2/3 - $0 (previous year's estimate)
= 600,000 - 0
= $600,000
In 2020 with the third year elapsed, they will apportion it as such,
= 900,000 * 3/3 - $600,000 (previous year's estimate)
= $300,000
The correct option is therefore Option D.

Answer:
The total medical expenses deductible before the 10% limitation is 2090
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
The Total expenses included is stated as follows:
Th Hotel room is = $150 * two rooms * three nights
Mileage of = $900,
Miles = 1000
Doctor's bill ins an Francisco = 1,600

To next step is to find the total medical expenses deductible before the 10% limitation is given as follows:
Doctor's bill = 1,600
The total expenses i hotel room is calculated as :150 * 1 *3 = 450
So,
The total = 1600 + 450 = 2050
It is also important to know that only 10% of the expense stay for the accompanied person is permitted
Therefore,
450*10% =45
Total 2050+45 = 2090

A stock’s price fluctuations are approximately normally distributed with a mean of $29.51 and a standard deviation of $3.87. You decide to sell whenever the price reaches its highest 10% of values. What is the highest value you would still hold the stock?
Answer:
$34.46
Explanation:
In this Question there is Highest value of 10% and the probability of 90%.
we will use following formula to calculate the highest value of the stock
z value = ( x - mean ) / Standard deviation
where
x = the highest value
z score value at 10% = 1.28
Placing value in the formula
1.28 = ( x - $29.51 ) / $3.87
1.28 x $3.87 = x - $29.51
$4.9536 = x - $29.51
x = $4.9536 + $29.51
x = 34.4636

Seth owns a local business that provides email updates on surf conditions. He is the only supplier of these email updates in Santa Barbara and Goleta, which gives him a monopoly in both cities. The marginal cost of producing another update is zero (and we'll ignore fixed costs). The inverse demand for these updates in Santa Barbara is p = 74-q and the inverse demand in Goleta is p = 39 - 4q. Suppose Seth charges different uniform prices in SB and Goleta. If Seth sets each price such that he is maximizing his total profits, what are Seth's total profits?
Answer:
Seth's total profits is $1,535.359
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
MC = 0 and we will ignore fixed costs
Therefore TC = 0
Demand function in Santa barbara is
p = 74 - q
MR = 74 - 2q
Since Seth sets different uniform prices in two markets to maximizes his profit therefore ,
MR = MC
74 - 2q = 0
2q = 74
q=37
p = 74 - 37 = 37
Profit = pq - TC
= 37*37 - 0
= $1,369
Inverse demand finction Goleta is
p = 39 - 4q
MR = 39 - 8q
MR = MC
39 - 8q = 0
8q = 39
q = 4.875
p = 39 - 4.875 = 34.125
Profit = pq - TC
= 34.125*4.875 - 0
= $166.359
Therefore, Seth's total profits = $1,369 + $166.359
Seth's total profits= $1,535.359
Seth's total profits is $1,535.359
The Bensington Glass Company entered into a loan agreement with the firm's bank to finance the firm's working capital. The loan called for a floating rate that was 25 basis points (0.25 percent) over an index based on LIBOR. In addition, the loan adjusted weekly based on the closing value of the index for the previous week and had a maximum annual rate of 2.24 percent and a minimum of 1.71 percent. Calculate the rate of interest for weeks 2 through 10.
As the data in incomplete, lets consider the data found on the net for the same question
DATE LIBOR
week 1 1.98%
week 2 1.64%
week 3 1.54%
week 4 1.31%
week 5 1.57%
week 6 1.69%
week 7 1.66%
week 8 1.94%
week 9 1.92%
(This data in not given in the question. If some values differ from this data, just change the that value in the method below and you'll get your answer)
Answer:Floating rate = 0.25%
Maximum rate = 2.24%
Minimum rate = 1.71%
General formula for for finding rate of interest of a week
Week Rate = Previous Week's Rate (LIBOR from table) + Floating Rate
Lets find the values:
Week 2 rate = Week 1 rate + 0.25% = 1.98% + 0.25% = 2.23%
Week 3 rate = Week 2 rate + 0.25% = 1.64% + 0.25% = 1.89%
Week 4 rate = Week 3 rate + 0.25% = 1.54% + 0.25% = 1.79%
Week 5 rate = Week 4 rate + 0.25% = 1.31% + 0.25% = 1.56%
Week 5 rate is lower than the minimum rate, rate of Week 5 can be taken as minimum rate
Week 5 rate = 1.71%
Week 6 rate = Week 5 rate + 0.25% = 1.57% + 0.25% = 1.82%
Week 7 rate = Week 6 rate + 0.25% = 1.69% + 0.25% = 1.94%
Week 8 rate = Week 7 rate + 0.25% = 1.66% + 0.25% = 1.91%
Week 9 rate = Week 8 rate + 0.25% = 1.94% + 0.25% = 2.19%
Week 10 rate = Week 9 rate + 0.25% = 1.92% + 0.25% = 2.17%
You were left $100,000 in a trust fund set up by your grandfather. The fund pays 6.5% interest. You must spend the money on your college education, and you must withdraw the money in 4 equal installments, beginning immediately. How much could you withdraw today and at the beginning of each of the next 3 years and end up with zero in the account
Answer:
The answer is 27,408.71
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
You were left with a trust fund of =$100,00
Interest rate = 6.5%
Money with drawled = 4 installments
Now,
The step to take is to find you could withdraw currently at the start of each of the next 3 years with a zero account to end up with.
Now,
100, 00 = X (1 - (1.065)^-4/.065/1.065
We now solve for X
Thus
X =7,408.71

New Gadgets, Inc., currently pays no dividend but is expected to pay its first annual dividend of $5.30 per share exactly 9 years from today. After that, the dividends are expected to grow at 3.9 percent forever. If the required return is 12.1 percent, what is the price of the stock today?
Answer:
The multiple choices are:
$64.63 '
$23.12
$30.24
$47.59
$25.92
The correct option is $25.92
Explanation:
The price of the stock today is the present of dividend of $5.30 payable in nine years' time and present value of the dividend terminal value:
present of dividend=dividend/discount factor
where discount factor=(1+r)^n
r is the required rate of return of 12.1%
n is the number of years which is 9
present value of dividend=$5.30/(1+12.1%)^9=$ 1.90
Terminal value=dividend*(1+g)/(r-g)
g is the dividend growth rate of 3.9%
r is the required return of 12.1%
terminal value=$5.3*(1+3.9%)/(12.1%-3.9%)=$ 67.15
Present value of terminal value=$ 67.15/(1+12.1%)^9=$ 24.02
Sum of both present values=$ 24.02 +$1.90=$25.92

Stoneheart Group is expected to pay a dividend of $3.17 next year. The company's dividend growth rate is expected to be 3.9 percent indefinitely and investors require a return of 11.7 percent on the company's stock. What is the stock price?
Answer:
The price of the stock= 40.64
Explanation:
According to the dividend growth model, the price of a stock is the present value of expected dividend discounted at the required rate of return.
This is done as follows:
Price of a stock = D×(1+r)/(r-g)
D(1+g) - Dividend for next year = 3.17
g- growth rate - 3.9%
r- required rate of return - 11.7%
P = 3.17/(0.117- 0.039)=40.641
The price of the stock= 40.64

Which level of critical thinking have you reached when you are able to recall
something you know about the subject matter at hand?
a) Comprehension
b) Analysis
c) Knowledge
d) Application
Answer:
d) Application
Explanation:
Critical thinking can be defined as the ability of an individual to establish clear and reflective thinking on any subject, whose focus is on making their own decisions and finding out what they want to believe in, rather than just accepting what they see or it is heard as an absolute truth.
Therefore, the most appropriate alternative to this question, about what is the level of critical thinking achieved when you can remember
something you know about a subject, is the application level.
Applying information occurs when a person makes use of information previously learned and understood, therefore the application of information on a new subject, helps in transferring solutions from one problem to solving another problem.
Suppose you were going to save $1,000 per year for three years at a 10% interest rate compounded annually, with the first investment occurring today. What would be the future value of this investment
Answer:
$13,310
Explanation:
The investment would be 100% = $1000 * 100% / 10% = $10,000
So this is the amount that would be deposited today to earn $1000 each year which is 10% of the amount deposited today.
The Future Value is given as under:
Future Value = Present Value * (1 + r)^n
Here,
Present value is $10,000
r is 10%
and n is 3 years
So, by putting values we have:
Future Value = $10,000 * (1 + 10%)^3 = $13,310
