Answer:
1. 21,000 kg of plastic
2. $168,000
3. $3000 Unfavorable
4. Materials Price variance $9000 Favaorable
Materials Quantity variance $12,000 Unvaforable
Explanation:
1. Calculation to determine the standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) that is allowed to make 35,000 helmets
Using this formula
Standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) = Standard quantity required per helmet x Total no. of helmets
Let plug in the formula
Standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) = 0.60 kg x 35,000
Standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) = 21,000 kg of plastic
Therefore The standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) that is allowed to make 35,000 helmets is 21,000 kg of plastic
2. Calculation to determine the standard materials cost allowed (SQ X SP) to make 35,000 helmets
Using this formula
Standard materials cost allowed (SQ X SP) = Standard quantity required per helmet x Standard cost per kg x Total no. of helmets
Let plug in the formula
Standard materials cost allowed (SQ X SP)= 0.60 x $8 x 35,000
Standard materials cost allowed (SQ X SP)= $168,000
Therefore The standard materials cost allowed (SQ X SP) to make 35,000 helmets is $168,000
3. Calculation to determine the materials spending variance
First step is to calculate the Materials Price variance
Using this formula
Materials Price variance = (AQ × AP) - (AQ × SP)
Let plug in the
Materials Price variance= $171,000 - (22,500 x $8)
Materials Price variance= $171,000 - 180,000
Materials Price variance= -$9,000
= $9000 Favaorable
Second step is to calculate the Materials Quantity variance using this formula
Materials Quantity variance = (AQ × SP) - (SQxSP)
Let plug in the formula
Materials Quantity variance=
Materials Quantity variance= 180,000 - $168,000
Materials Quantity variance=$12,000
Materials Quantity variance= $12,000 Unvaforable
Now let calculate the Materials spending variance using this formula
Materials spending variance = Price variance + Quantity variance
Let plug in the formula
Materials spending variance= -$9,000+ $12,000 Materials spending variance= $3,000
Materials spending variance= $3000 Unfavorable
Therefore Materials spending variance is $3000 Unfavorable
4. Calculation to determine the materials price variance and the materials quantity variance
Calculation for the Materials Price variance Using this formula
Materials Price variance = (AQ × AP) - (AQ × SP)
Let plug in the formula
Materials Price variance= $171,000 - (22,500 x $8)
Materials Price variance= $171,000 - 180,000
Materials Price variance= -$9,000
Materials Price variance= $9000 Favaorable
Therefore Materials Price variance is $9000 Favaorable
Calculation to determine Materials Quantity variance using this formula
Materials Quantity variance = (AQ × SP) - (SQxSP)
Let plug in the formula
Materials Quantity variance= = 180,000 - $168,000
Materials Quantity variance=$12,000
Materials Quantity variance= $12,000 Unvaforable
Therefore Materials Quantity variance is $12,000 Unvaforable
Exercise 9-18 (Algorithmic) (LO. 5) In 2020, the CEO of Crimson, Inc., entertains 9 clients at a skybox in Memorial Stadium for a single athletic event during the year. Substantive business discussions occurred at various times during the event. The box cost $6,750 per event and seats 11 people. (The cost of a regular, nonluxury box seat at Memorial ranges from $50 to $100.) Refreshments served during the event cost $1,720 (and were separately itemized on the bill Crimson received). How much of these costs may Crimson deduct
Answer: $860
Explanation:
As substantive business discussions took place in box at various times, there can be certain deductions for business purposes.
The box cost is not deductible because the cost is substantially higher than the cost of nonluxury box seats at the same stadium.
As per normal taxation convention, 50% of the refreshments can be deducted as business expenses:
= 50% * 1,720
= $860

Fatuma invests a total of $22,000 in two accounts. The first account earned a rate of return of 15% (after a year). However, the second account suffered a 7% loss in the same time period. At the end of one year, the total amount of money gained was $110.00. How much was invested into each account
Answer:
$7,500 was invested in the account that gained 15%, while $14,500 was invested in the account that lost 7%.
Explanation:
Given that Fatuma invests a total of $ 22,000 in two accounts, and the first account earned a rate of return of 15% after a year while the second account suffered a 7% loss in the same time period, and at the end of one year the total amount of money gained was $ 110.00, to determine how much was invested into each account, the following calculation must be performed:
11,000 x 0.15 - 11,000 x 0.07 = 880
5,000 x 0.15 - 17,000 x 0.07 = -440
8,000 x 0.15 - 14,000 x 0.07 = 220
7,000 x 0.15 - 15,000 x 0.07 = 0
7,500 x 0.15 - 14,500 x 0.07 = 110
Therefore, $ 7,500 was invested in the account that gained 15%, while $ 14,500 was invested in the account that lost 7%.

Abbott, Inc., plans to issue $500,000 of ten percent bonds that will pay interest semiannually and mature in five years. Assume that the effective interest rate is 12 percent per year compounded semiannually. Calculate the selling price of the bonds. Round answers to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
$463,202.25
Explanation:
The calculation of the selling price of the bond is given below:
The selling price of the bonds is
= Present value of interest + Present value of maturity
where,
In semi-annually basis , the rate of interest would be divided by 2 and the time period would be double
So, The Present value of interest equals to
= $500,000 × 5% × 7.36009
= $184,002.25
The 7.36009 represent PVIFA factor. Refer to the PVIFA table for the same
And, the Present value of maturity is
= $500,000 × 0.5584
= $279,200
So, the selling price of the bond is
= $184,002.25 + $279,200
= $463,202.25
Assume a company is preparing a budget for its first two months of operations. During the first and second months it expects credit sales of $48,000 and $76,000, respectively. The company expects to collect 60% of its credit sales in the month of the sale and the remaining 40% in the following month. What is the expected cash collections from credit sales during the first month
Answer:
$28,800
Explanation:
Follow the given collection policy :
Cash Collection = 60 % in month of the sale + 40 % in the following month
therefore,
During the first month :
Cash Collection = 60 % in month of the sale only
= $48,000 x 60 %
= $28,800
The expected cash collections from credit sales during the first month is $28,800

he management of Green Energy Manufacturing is analyzing variable overhead variances for the fiscal period just ended. The flexible budget called for $176,000 in variable overhead but actual variable overhead was $100,000. In computing the overhead variances, Green's management discovered that it had used 40,000 pounds of direct material, rather than the budgeted amount of 44,000 pounds. (Pounds of direct material is the single overhead driver of variable overhead). The standard variable overhead rate per pound of direct material is $2.00. What is Green's variable overhead spending variance
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
With regards to the above, Green's variable overhead spending variance is computed as
= Flexible budget - Actual variable overhead.
Given that
Flexible budget in variable overhead = $176,000
Actual variable overhead = $100,000
Therefore,
Variable overhead spending variance
= $176,000 - $100,000
= $76,000 F
g 10. Problems and Applications Q10 Expansionary fiscal policy is more likely to lead to a short-run increase in investment when the investment accelerator is . True or False: Expansionary fiscal policy is more likely to lead to a short-run increase in investment when the interest rate sensitivity of investment is large than when it is small. True False
Answer:
1. True
2. True
Explanation:
An expansionary gap, also known as the inflationary gap in economics is used to measure the difference between the gross domestic product (GDP) and the current level of real Gross Domestic Products that exists when a country's economy is guaged at a full employment rate. This eventually causes the price of goods and services to go up with a low income level. Also, an expansionary fiscal policy will cause the total increase in aggregate demand to be greater than the initial increase in aggregate demand due to the multiplier process.
Additionally, this simply means in an inflationary or expansionary condition, the potential Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is lower than the real Gross Domestic Products.
The investment accelerator effect states that there is an increase in investment expenditure when there is increase in the level of income or demand. Thus, the level of investment in a particular economy is based on the rate of change in consumption and the gross domestic product (GDP).
Hence, when the investment accelerator is large, there's likely to be a short-run increase in investment due to expansionary fiscal policy. The expansionary fiscal policy is usually less when the the interest rate sensitivity of investment is large and consequently, leading to a greater decline in investments.

A company wants to set up operations in a country with the following corporate tax rate structure: Taxable Income Tax Rate <$50,000 15% $50,000 - $75,000 25% $75,000 - $100,000 34% >$100,000 39% Therefore, a taxable income of $60,000 would result in taxes due of $50,000*0.15 + ($60,000-$50,000)*0.25 = $50,000*0.15 + $10,000*0.25 = $10,000 If the compay expects gross revenues of $300,000, $150,000 in total costs, $20,000 in allowable tax deductions and $6,000 in a one-time business start-up credit, how much should the company expect to pay in taxes?
Answer:
$183,950
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Total taxable income is
= $300,000 - $150,000 - $20,000
= $130,000
Now tax is
= 15% of $50,000 + 25% of ($75,000 - $50,000) + 34% of ($100,000 - $75,000) + 39% of ($530,000 - $100,000)
= 0.15 of $50,000 + 0.25 of $25,000 + 0.34 of $25,000 + 0.39 of $430,000
= $189,950
Now Tax owed is
= $189,950 - $6,000
= $183,950
Your company, a small start-up corporation, buys raw materials from Regina Fabrics on credit. Because her company has had several problems over the recent months, Regina demands either full payment in advance or a guaranty from someone with proof of assets to cover the debt. Your company does not have the cash on hand but you have sufficient assets to cover the debt and so you sign a guaranty on a six-month loan for the fabric. After two months, your company has the cash to pay off the loan and your financial officer offers to pay Regina. Because of some issues with her company, she refuses to accept payment and requests that you continue to pay the monthly payments. A month later your company is now short on cash and Regina comes to you as the guaranty and requests that you make the payment. You are unhappy that she didn't accept the payment when you had the cash. Evaluate whether or not you should have to pay as the guaranty.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
I believe that the main thing here that can favor my company is if there's documentation for every process involved with my dealings with Regina Fabrics.
This could have been solved if she didn't reject the cash that was offered to her company after two months, so there should be a formal documents that shows that she rejected the cash which should be acknowledged and signed by her. Also, the monthly payments received by her should be documented as well.
With regards to the above, if there is a formal documentation in place, then I won't have to pay as the guaranty but if this isn't in place, then I may have to pay since there won't be evidences against her.

Hawkins Inc. had pre-tax accounting income of $1,800,000 and a tax rate of 35% in 2017, its first year of operations. During 2017 the company had the following transactions: Received rent from Barrett Co. for 2018 $64,000 Municipal bond income $80,000 Depreciation for tax purposes in excess of book depreciation $40,000 Installment sales revenue to be collected in 2018 $108,000 For 2017, what is the amount of income taxes payable for Hawkins Inc.
Answer:
Hawkins Inc.
For 2017, the amount of income taxes payable for Hawkins Inc. is:
= $572,600.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
2017 tax rate = 35%
Pre-tax accounting income = $1,800,000
2018 Rent from Barrett Co. 64,000
Less:
Exempt Municipal bond income (80,000)
Tax Depreciation (in excess of
book depreciation) (40,000)
2018 Installment sales revenue (108,000)
Adjusted taxable income $1,636,000
Income tax (35%) 572,600 (35% of $1,636,000)
Tax expense (provision) 630,000 (35% of $1,800,000)
b) The difference between the income tax payable of $572,600 and the provision for income tax expense for the year of $630,000 is due to temporary differences and exempt Municipal bond income. The temporary differences are caused by the different timings of the recognition of revenue and expenses under the tax jurisdiction and the GAAP accounting.
Nancy Fur Supply has been selling fur coats to Patricia's Fur Shop pursuant to an existing contract. The price of fur pelts goes up sharply and Nancy concludes that she can no longer continue to supply the coats to Patricia's at the agreed price. Nancy asks Patricia to agree to a 10 percent increase in the price of the coats and Patricia agrees but then later changes her mind and refuses to pay the additional 10%. In that case, Patricia:
Answer:
In that case, Patricia:
is still liable to pay the additional 10%.
Explanation:
The 10% price increase was preceded by an agreement between the two parties. Patricia is bound to honor her agreements with her business partner to sustain the business relationship. Refusing to pay a debt just by a change of mind does not repudiate the contract. Nancy can enforce the agreement in the court for specific performance of the contract because this additional agreement simply modifies the earlier contract and remains enforceable.
