Answer:
Explanation:
Cost of acquisition - $21,500
Residual value - $6,500
Depreciable amount - 21500-6500 =15,000
Useful life = 5 years
Total units produced = 10000
Depreciation rate = 1/5*100 = 20%
Double depreciation raate = 40%
Depreciation 2018 2019
Straight line 20%*15000 3000 3000
Units of production
850/10000*15000 1275
1300/10000*15000 1950
Double declining balance method
2018 = 40%*21500 = 8600
2019 =(21500-8600) *40%= 5160
2020 (12900 -5160)*40% = 3096
2021 (7740-3096) *40% =1858
2022 (4644-1858)*40% = 1114

Samuel slips on an icy spot in front of an apartment and is hospitalized for three weeks. The owner of the apartment pays Samuel $14,000 for medical expenses and gives him $4,000 for his pain and suffering. Samuel receives his regular $1,800 salary from his employer while he couldn't work and also receives $7,000 in disability pay from a plan that he had purchased. Samuel's gross income from these payments is: a. $-0-. b. $1,800. c. $2,500. d. $5,800. e. $8,800.
Answer:
B) $1,800.
Explanation:
$14,000 in medical expenses are not part of Samuel's gross income.
$7,000 in disability payments are not included in Samuel's gross income because he paid the premiums.
$4,000 in pain and suffering compensation are not part of your gross income.
The only payments that are part of Samuel's gross income and therefore are taxed, are his regular monthly salary payments = $1,800. If Samuel's disability insurance premium had been paid by his employer, then the $7,000 would have been taxable.
Construct profit diagrams or profit tables on expiration to show what position in IBM puts, calls and/or underlying stock best expresses the investor’s objectives described below. Assume IBM currently sells for $150 so that profit diagrams/ tables between $100 and $200 (in $10 increments) are appropriate. Also assume that "at the money" puts and calls cost $15 each.

Western Company is preparing a cash budget for June. The company has $10,600 in cash at the beginning of June and anticipates $31,400 in cash receipts and $37,300 in cash payments during June. Western Company has an agreement with its bank to maintain a minimum cash balance of $10,000. As of May 31, the company has no loans outstanding. To maintain the $10,000 required balance, during June the company must:
a. Borrow $5,300.
b. Repay $4,900.
c. Borrow $10,000.
d. Repay $5,100.
e. Borrow $4,900.
Answer:
$5,300
Explanation:
The computation of maintained balance is shown below:-
Total amount = Opening Balance + Cash Receipts - Cash Disbursement
= $10,600 + $31,400 - $37,300
= $42,000 - $37,300
= $4,700
In order to maintain a balance of $10,000, it needs to borrow = $10,000 - $4,700
= $5,300
Therefore to maintain a balance of $10,000, it needs to borrow $5,300
LPM Ltd. uses units produced as its measure of activity. During August, the company budgeted for 46,700 units of output, but actually produced 48,900 units of output. The company uses the following revenue and cost formulas in its budgeting, where q is the number of units of output:
Revenue: $10.40q
Salaries: $31,050 + $2.45q
Supplies: $1.25q
Utilities: $0.60q
Insurance: $23,090
Miscellaneous expenses: $13,800 + $0.21q
The company reported the following actual results for August:
Revenue $ 491,250
Salaries $ 148,360
Supplies $ 55,795
Utilities $ 31,920
Insurance $ 22,100
Miscellaneous expense $ 20,845
The revenue variance in August is:
Answer:
The revenue variance in August is $5,570 favorable.
Explanation:
LPM Ltd.
Actual Revenue = $491,250
Budgeted Revenue = $10.40 x 46,700 units = $485,680
Revenue Variance = Budgeted Variance - Actual Variance
Revenue Variance = $485,680 - $491,250
Revenue Variance = $5,570 favorable
Since the Actual Variance is greater than budgeted variance, hence favorable revenue variance.

Ellis Television makes and sells portable televisions. Each television regularly sells for $210. The following cost data per television is based on a full capacity of 10,000 televisions produced each period. A special order has been received by Ellis for a sale of 2,000 televisions to an overseas customer. The only selling costs that would be incurred on this order would be $6 per television for shipping. Ellis is now selling 6,000 televisions through regular channels each period. What should be the minimum selling price per television in negotiating a price for this special order?
Question
Ellis Television makes and sells portable televisions. Each television regularly sells for $210. The following cost data per television is based on a full capacity of 10,000 televisions produced each period.
Direct material - $80
Direct Labour -$60
Manufacturing overhead(70% variable, 30% unavoidable fixed cos) -$40
A special order has been received by Ellis for a sale of 2,000 televisions to an overseas customer. The only selling costs that would be incurred on this order would be $6 per television for shipping. Ellis is now selling 6,000 televisions through regular channels each period. What should be the minimum selling price per television in negotiating a price for this special order?
Answer:
The minimum selling price = $174.
Explanation:
The minimum selling price to be acceptable for the special order be the same as the relevant variable cost of producing a unit.
The relevant variable cost = marginal cost of a unit
Marginal cost = Direct material + Direct labour + Variable manufacturing overhead + shipping cost
Marginal cost = 80 + 60 + (70%× 40) + 6
= 174
The minimum selling price = $174.
Note : The 30% balance of manufacturing overhead which represents unavoidable fixed costs is irrelevant for this decision. These are costs that would be incurred either way whether or not the special order is accepted.

The horizontal analysis involves comparing each line item of Insignia Corporation's income statement for 2015 with the one from 2014 in dollars and percentage. Vertical analysis is done by expressing each line item as a percentage of total revenues. To assess if Insignia earned more profit per dollar of revenue, compare the net income ratio to total revenues for both years.
Horizontal Analysis
To perform a horizontal analysis of Insignia Corporation's income statement for 2015, you would compare each line item to the equivalent line item from 2014. The change in dollars is found by subtracting the 2014 amount from the 2015 amount. The percentage change is found by dividing the change in dollars by the 2014 amount and multiplying by 100.
Vertical Analysis
In a vertical analysis, each line item on the income statement is expressed as a percentage of total revenues for the same year. To do this, divide the amount of each line item by the total revenues and then multiply by 100.
Whether Insignia earned more profit per dollar of revenue in 2015 compared to 2014 can be determined by comparing the ratios of net income to total revenues for both years.

Pacific Ink had beginning work-in-process inventory of $762,960 on October 1. Of this amount, $313,920 was the cost of direct materials and $449,040 was the cost of conversion. The 57,000 units in the beginning inventory were 25 percent complete with respect to both direct materials and conversion costs. During October, 120,000 units were transferred out and 39,000 remained in ending inventory. The units in ending inventory were 75 percent complete with respect to direct materials and 35 percent complete with respect to conversion costs. Costs incurred during the period amounted to $2,956,500 for direct materials and $3,737,220 for conversion. 1.value: 20.00 pointsRequired information Compute the costs of goods transferred out and the ending inventory using the weighted-average method.
Answer:
Cost of goods transferred =$6,388,147.07
Cost of ending inventory=$1,068,478.93
Explanation:
Equivalent unit of material = (120,000× 100%)+(39,000×75%)=149250
Cost per unit of material = Total cost /Total equivalent unit
=(313,920 +2,956,500)/149250 =21.912
Cost per conversion cost
Equivalent unit of conversion cost
= (120,000 × 100%) + ((39,000×35%)= 133,650
Cost per unit of conversion cost
= ($3,737,220 + $449,040)/133,650 = 31.322
Cost of goods transferred = 120,000× (21.912 + 31.322)= 6,388,147.07
Cost of Inventory = (75%*39,000×21.912)+(35%× 39,000×31.322)
= 1,068,478.93
Cost of goods transferred =$6,388,147.07
Cost of ending inventory=$1,068,478.93

The Tinsley Company exchanged land that it had been holding for future plant expansion for a more suitable parcel located farther from residential areas. Tinsley carried the land at its original cost of $30,000. According to an independent appraisal, the land currently is worth $72,000. Tinsley paid $14,000 in cash to complete the transaction. Required: 1. What is the fair value of the new parcel of land received by Tinsley assuming the exchange has commercial substance? 2. Prepare the journal entry to record the exchange assuming the exchange has commercial substance. 3. Prepare the journal entry to record the exchange assuming the exchange lacks commercial substance. 4. Prepare the journal entry to record the exchange except that Tinsley received $9,000 in the exchange, and the exchange lacks commercial substance.
The fair value of the new land parcel Tinsley received is $72,000. The journal entries depend on whether the exchange has commercial substance, and they adjust for any cash paid or received during the transaction.
Explanation:The fair value of the new parcel of land received by Tinsley is the sum of the original cost of the land given up ($30,000) plus the additional cash paid ($14,000), which is $44,000, assuming the transaction has commercial substance. However, because the appraisal value of the land is $72,000, which is higher than the carrying amount plus the cash paid, the fair value of the new land is $72,000.
If the exchange has commercial substance, the journal entry to record the transaction would be:
If the exchange lacks commercial substance and no cash is received, the new land is recorded at the book value of the old land plus any cash paid, and no gain is recognized. The journal entry in this case would be:
If Tinsley received $9,000 in the exchange and the exchange lacks commercial substance, the journal entry would be:
The recognition of a gain is deferred in exchanges lacking commercial substance unless cash is received.

Operating Income $32290
The operating income using variable costing is calculated as the contribution margin ($44,290) minus the total fixed costs ($12,000), resulting in an operating income of $32,290.
To calculate the operating income using variable costing, we first need to determine the total variable costs at the production level and then calculate the contribution margin from the sales of 430 units. Next, we subtract the total fixed manufacturing and selling costs from the total contribution margin to find the operating income.
Total variable costs per unit = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Variable selling and administrative costs
Total variable costs per unit = $13 + $26 + $16 + $2
Total variable costs per unit = $57
Total variable production costs for 480 units = $57 * 480
Total variable production costs for 480 units = $27,360
Sales revenue = $160 * 430
Sales revenue = $68,800
Total variable costs for units sold = $57 * 430
Total variable costs for units sold = $24,510
Contribution margin = Sales revenue - Total variable costs for units sold
Contribution margin = $68,800 - $24,510
Contribution margin = $44,290
Total fixed costs = Fixed manufacturing overhead + Fixed selling and administrative costs
Total fixed costs = $7,680 + $4,320
Total fixed costs = $12,000
Operating income = Contribution margin - Total fixed costs
Operating income = $44,290 - $12,000
Operating income = $32,290
The operating income using variable costing is $32,290.

Answer:
$120,000
Explanation:
The computation of sales is shown below:-
For computing the sales revenue first we need to find out the selling price per unit which is here below:-
Selling price per unit = Sales ÷ Units
= $96,000 ÷ 16,000
= $6
Sales revenue when 20,000 units are sold = Selling price per unit × Number of units sold
= $6 × 20,000
= $120,000
Therefore for computing the sales revenue we simply applied the above formula.

It export jeans. it will export 3/4 of their production and keep the 1/4 for internal use.
1,000,000 jeans consumed --3,000,000 exported--
3,000,000 apples imported
Explanation:
The economy will export the good with the lower opportunity cost:
do 3 apple cost 4 jeas with a cost of $10 each total = 40
do 4 jean cost 3 apples with a cost of $10 each total = 30
The economy will focus in jeans and export to later purchase apple in the market.
Therefore will produce 4 jeans and sale them all to get 4 apple (X-axis intersection)
Or will produce 4 jeas and keep them (Y-Axis intersection)
That is produce 4 jeans x 1,000,000 worker = 4,000,000
And then, consume 1/4 = 1,000,000
and export the rest 3,000,000

Ginger Hardware was organized on January 1, 2021. The firm was authorized to issue 170,000 shares of $5 par value common stock. During 2021, Ginger Hardware had the following transactions relating to stockholders' equity: Issued 51,000 shares of common stock at $7 per share. Issued 34,000 shares of common stock at $8 per share. Reported a net income of $170,000. Paid dividends of $85,000. What is total paid-in capital at the end of 2021
Answer:
$544,0000
Explanation:
Shareholders equity = (51,000 * $7) + (34,000 * $8) = $629,000
Retained earnings = $170,000 - $85,000 = $85,000
Total paid-in capital = Shareholders equity - Retained earnings = $629,000 - $85,000 = $544,0000

Explanation:
After a natural disaster, such as a major hurricane, there is increased demand for gasoline, lumber, bottled water, clothing, and other essential goods as people try to replace and rebuild what was lost. At the same time, the supply of these goods likely decreases because of disruptions to factories and transportation. Under normal market conditions, producers would raise their prices at the first sign of trouble, both to offset their own losses from the disaster and to obtain optimal profits.
However, people who have lost everything need to start rebuilding as soon as possible at a price they can afford to pay. The sooner the community is rebuilt and back to normal, the sooner the local economy will return to normal for both consumers and producers. For this reason, I think the government should introduce price ceilings on essential goods during a disaster. Many people would not be able to buy the goods they need without price ceilings. Although producers lose out on maximizing their profits, their actual losses are limited because they are allowed to raise prices to cover production and transportation costs driven up by the disaster.
Because citizens benefit so greatly from them, I think emergency price ceilings are beneficial to the economy as long as producers do not suffer significant losses from them.
Price controls are implemented by the government to regulate the prices of certain goods or services. They can be a benefit or a hindrance to the economy depending on the specific situation. One example is the implementation of price controls on water during a severe drought, which can protect consumers but harm some suppliers.
Explanation:Price controls are implemented by the government to regulate the prices of certain goods or services. They can be used to stabilize prices, protect consumers, or support specific industries. For example, during a time of severe drought, the government may implement price controls on water to ensure that it remains affordable for everyone, thus protecting the welfare of the population.
The types of goods or services that price controls cover can vary depending on the situation. In the case of the water shortage example, price controls would cover the price of water usage and potentially related products like water filters or bottled water.
In this scenario, the price control would be a price ceiling because it sets a maximum price that cannot be exceeded. Consumers would benefit from the price control as it ensures that water remains affordable during the drought. However, some suppliers or businesses may be harmed if they are unable to charge higher prices to cover production costs.
Based on the overall benefit or harm to society and the economy, the price control in this example can be seen as a benefit to the economy. It helps maintain access to an essential resource for the population while protecting vulnerable consumers from excessively high prices. However, it's important to consider the potential long-term effects and unintended consequences of price controls.

Place in order the events in the evolution of the Solow growth model. Start by clicking the first item in the sequence or dragging it here The Solow growth model was developed in 1956. The Solow model was applied to many African nations that had just gained independence. Real-world observations caused economists to revisit the Solow growth model. Growth policies failed; nations that had received international aid were no better off.
The Solow growth model, first developed in 1956 and applied to newly independent African countries, encountered setbacks when these nations failed to economically improve despite international aid. The model was revisited, highlighting the importance of the Industrial Revolution and technological advancements for modern economic growth. Countries in East Asia like South Korea, Japan, and China have demonstrated rapid economic growth by employing market-oriented reforms and investing in technology and education.
Explanation:The Solow growth model details the long-term economic growth experienced by different countries. This model, developed in 1956, was first applied to countries in Africa that had recently gained independence. However, despite assistance from international aid, growth policies failed, leaving these nations no better off economically. This caused economists to revisit the Solow economic growth model.
During their revisit, it was found that the Industrial Revolution and subsequent technological advancements were essential drivers of modern economic growth, increasing worker productivity and bolstering trade. This growth has been evidenced within the Western Europe and North American economies which consistently maintained an average growth rate of about 2% per year since the early 19th century.
In the last half-century, other regions, specifically East Asia, showcased their ability to rapidly catch up with the developed countries. Countries like South Korea, Japan, and China utilized market-oriented economic reforms, new technology, education, and substantial capital investment to bolster their economic growth.

The actual direct labor hours worked (AQ) during November was:2. The total standard direct labor hours (SQ) in November for the output produced was:3.The direct labor rate variance for November (to two decimal places) was:4.direct labor efficiency variance for November (to two decimal places) was:
Answer:
1. 22,464 hours
2. 20,800 hours
3. $71,884.80 Favorable
4. $31,948.80 Unfavorable
Explanation:
Given that
Standard hours per unit = 3.20
Number of finished units = 6,500
Standard wage rate per hour = $19.20
Total direct labor payroll = $359,424
Actual wage rate per hour = $16
1. The computation of direct labor hours worked is shown below:-
Direct labor hours worked = Total labor cost ÷ Actual wage rate
= $359,424 ÷ 16
= 22,464 hours
2. The computation of total standard direct labor hours is here below:-
Total standard direct labor hours = Standard hours per unit × Actual units produced
= 3.20 × 6,500
= 20,800 hours
3. The calculation of direct labor rate variance is shown below:-
Direct labor rate variance = Actual hour × (Standard rate - Actual rate)
= 22,464 × ($19.2 - $16)
= 22,464 × $3.2
= $71,884.80 Favorable
4. The calculation of direct labor efficiency variance is shown below:-
Direct labor efficiency variance = Standard Rate × (Standard hour - Actual hours)
= $19.20 × (20,800 - 22,464)
= $19.20 × -$1,664
= $31,948.80 Unfavorable
