Dodero Company produces a single product which sells for $100 per unit. Fixed expenses total $12,000 per month, and variable expenses are $60 per unit. The company's sales average 500 units per month. Which of the following statements is correct?
a. The company's break-even point is $12,000 per month.
b. The fixed expenses remain constant at $24 per unit for any activity level within the relevant range.
c. The company's contribution margin ratio is 40%.
d. Responses A, B, and C are all correct.

Answers

Answer:

c. The company's contribution margin ratio is 40%.

Explanation:

Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin / revenue

contribution margin = total revenue - total variable cost

$100 - $60 = $40

$40 / $100 = 0.4

Breakeven pont = fixed cost / price - variable cost

$12,000  / $100 - $60 = 300

fixed cost per unit decreases as sales increases and decreases as sales decreases

Suppose that the government immediately pursues an _____________ policy by increasing government purchases in response to the short-run economic impact of the higher oil prices.

Answers

Answer:

The answer to the blank space is: expansionary fiscal policy

Explanation:

Expansionary fiscal policy consists in either the increase of government purchases (fiscal spending), or the reduction of taxes, or both.

Expansionary fiscal policy is recommended when the economy is experiencing a downturn, and can be helpful in reducing the damage that the economic slump generates.

In the case of the question, higher oil prices for an importing country will result in less economic activity because this important fuel becomes more expensive, both for manufacturing, agriculture and services. For this reason, the government responds by increasing spending with the goal of reactivating the economy as soon as possible, and reducing the damange that was already done.

You invest a single amount of $14,800 for 7 years at 15 percent. At the end of 7 years you take the proceeds and invest them for 14 years at 17 percent. How much will you have after 21 years

Answers

Answer:

Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11

Explanation:

The value of an amount invested at a certain rate of return for certain number of years where  interest compounded annually is known as the future value.

The future value of an investment can be determined using the future value formula. This formula is stated below:

FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)

FV - Future Value , PV- Present Value, r-rate of return, n- number of years

For the first round of investment 15% for 7 years, future value would be:

FV = 14,800 × (1.15)^(7) =   39,368.29  

Second round of investing 17% for 14 year, future value would be

FV = 39,368.29 × (1.17)^(14)= 354,608.11

Future Value =$354,608.11

Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11

You have a portfolio worth $63,500 that has an expected return of 13.3 percent. The portfolio has $16,900 invested in Stock O, $24,700 invested in Stock P, with the remainder in Stock Q. The expected return on Stock O is 18.1 percent and the expected return on Stock P is 11.3 percent. What is the expected return on Stock Q

Answers

Answer:

Return on Stock Q is 11.85%

Explanation:

Investment in Q = ($63,500 - $16,900 - $24700)

Investment in Q =21900

Portfolio return = Respective return * Respective investment weight

13.3= (16900 / 63500 * 18.1%) + ( $24,700 / $63,500 * 11.3% ) + ( $21900 / $63,500 * Return on Q)

13.3 =  4.817165354 + 4.39533071% + (21900 / 63500*Return on Q)

13.3 = 9.21259843% + (21900 / 63500*Return on Q)

Return on Q = (13.3% -9.21259843%) *63500/21900

Return on Q = (4.08740157 * 2.899543379)

Return on Q = 11.85159816%

Return on Q =11.85%

Journalize Colorado’s issuance of 4,500 shares of common stock for $6 per share.
Journalize Colorado’s issuance of 4,500 shares of preferred stock for a total of $135,000.

Answers

Answer:

a.

Cash                                                                           27000 Dr

     Common Stock                                                            13500 Cr

     Preferred Stock                                   135000 Cr

Explanation:

a.

When we issue stock at premium, we always record the amount received from such issuance of stock at full. So, the cash account will be debited for 4500 * 6 = 27000

However, we record the common stock issued at par value and the remaining is credited under the reserve account which is Paid in capital in excess of par.

Thus the common stock will be credited by its par value of 4500 * 3 = 13500 and the remaining 4500 * 3 will be credited to the Paid in Capital account.

b.

The par value of the preferred stock is 4500 * 30 = 135000

Thus the preferred stock is issued at par and we simply debit the cash received from the issue and credit the preferred stock.

1. Do you think that punishments deter crime? Why or why not? Do you think there is a better way to reduce crime than punishment?

Answers

Explanation:

In my honest opinion i don not think punishment deter crime, but it does to a great extent reduce the rate of crime, if actually punishment deter crime, then there will not be offenders anymore.

Another possible way to reduce crime than punishment is to place a fine for offender to pay and also place offenders on community service, in this way offenders get to move freely in the society while they get to pay a huge sum for the offence they have committed

Answer:

I really believe that punishments reduce crime, if someone has done something wrong they have to be punished because, if not, how are they going to know that what they have done is wrong? So, in this way, some criminals stop committing crimes because they see that what they have done is not good and has consequences.

Punishment is known to be a bad stimulus to reduce crime; instead, education has been much more effective, because in this way criminals learn what they can do to improve their lives.

Answers

Answer:

Direct labor= $62,650

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

In May direct labor was 35% of conversion cost.

The manufacturing overhead for the month was $116,350.

The conversion costs are the sum of the direct labor and the manufacturing overhead:

Overhead= 65%= 116,350

Direct labor= 35%= ?

First, we need to determine the total amount of conversion costs:

Conversion costs= 116,350/0.65= 179,000

Now, the direct labor cost:

Direct labor= 179,000*0.35

Direct labor= $62,650

A June sales forecast projects that 5,000 units are going to be sold at a price of $11.00 per unit. The desired ending inventory of units is 15% higher than the beginning inventory of 600 units. Merchandise purchases for June are projected to include how many units

Answers

Answer:

Purchases= 5,090 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A June sales forecast projects that 5,000 units are going to be sold.

The desired ending inventory of units is 15% higher than the beginning inventory of 600 units.

To calculate the merchandise purchase, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases= 5,000 + 600*1.15 - 600

Purchases= 5,090 units

Jack uses his personal vehicle in his sole proprietorship. He keeps no records of any kind regarding his business use of the car and doesn't really know for certain when and where he used the automobile for business. Jack will not be claiming the EITC this year. Which of the following is correct?

Answers

Answer:

To comply with due diligence, every effort should be made to reconstruct Jack's vehicle expenses. If the records cannot be reconstructed then Casey should not claim the EITC this year.

Explanation:

Earned Income Tax credit (EITC) is a refundable tax that is returned to small to medium income earners. It can either reduce your tax of you will get a refund.

Sole proprietors often use their personal vehicles for business purposes. The expense for this is tax deductible. Deduction can be based on true cost of expenses like gasoline bought, or by standard mileage rate.

Vehicle use for personal purposes is not tax deductible.

In this scenario Jack has no records of his vehicle use for business and personal running. There is a need to seperate his use of the vehicle for business purposes.

Every effort should be made to reconstruct Jack's vehicle expenses. If the records cannot be reconstructed then Casey should not claim the EITC this year.

b. will work toward goals they are committed to.
c. have little ambition.
d. have the potential to accomplish the organization's goals.
e. seek out and accept responsibility.

Answers

Answer:

c. have little ambition.

Explanation:

Theory X is a theory that refers to people's behavior at work and suggests that managers tend to think that people are not motivated and don't like to work, avoid responsibility, don't have ambition and because of that, they have to be rewarded or punished to complete their job. According to that, the answer is that for example, one of the comments indicated that she treats employees as if they have little ambition because theory X says that managers have a negative opinion of people.

The other options are not right because they all refer to theory Y in which managers tend to have a positive view of their workers and think that they like their work, are motivated and are willing to take responsibility.

A company has net working capital of $2,204, current assets of $6,475, equity of $22,215, and long-term debt of $10,535. What is the company's net fixed assets?

Answers

Answer:

Net fixed assets is $30546.

Explanation:

Given the net working capital = $2204

The current assets of the company = $6475

The equity of the company = $22215

Long term debt of the company = $10535

Net Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities

2204 = 6475 – current liabilities

Current liabilities  = 6475 – 2204 = 4271

Total assets = Current Liabilities + Long term Debt + Total Equity

= 4271 + 10535 + 22215

= $37021

Total Liabilities and Stockholders Equity = Total Assets

Total assets = $37021

Total Assets = Current Assets + Net Fixed Assets

37021 = 6475 + net fixed assets

Net fixed assets = 37021 – 6475 = $30546

Ruby is 25 and has a good job at a biotechnology company. She currently has $10,000 in an IRA, an important part of her retirement nest egg. She believes her IRA will grow at an annual rate of 8 percent, and she plans to leave it untouched until she retires at age 65. Ruby estimates that she will need $875,000 in her total retirement nest egg by the time she is 65 in order to have retirement income of $20,000 a year (she expects that Social Security will pay her an additional $15,000 a year). a. How much will Ruby’s IRA be worth when she needs to start withdrawing money from it when she retires? Use Exhibit 1-A. (Round FV factor to 3 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole dollar.) b. How much money will she have to accumulate in her company’s 401(k) plan over the next 40 years in order to reach her retirement income goal? (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

Answers

Answer:

a. How much will Ruby’s IRA be worth when she needs to start withdrawing money from it when she retires?

the future value of Ruby's IRA = $10,000 x 21.725 (FV factor, 8%, 40 periods) = $217,250

b. How much money will she have to accumulate in her company’s 401(k) plan over the next 40 years in order to reach her retirement income goal?

she needs to accumulate $875,000 - $217,250 = $657,750 during the next 40 years

the annual contribution = FV / FV annuity factor = $657,750 / 259.057 (FV annuity factor, 8%, 40 periods) = $2,539.02 per year

Speedy Auto Repairs uses a job-order costing system.

Speedy’s overhead costs include various items, such as the shop manager’s salary, depreciation of equipment, utilities, insurance, and magazine subscriptions and refreshments for the waiting room.
The company applies all of its overhead costs to jobs based on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, it made the following estimates:
Direct labor-hours required to support estimated output 20,000
Fixed overhead cost $ 350,000
Variable overhead cost per direct labor-hour $ 1.00
Required:
1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate.
2. During the year, Mr. Wilkes brought in his vehicle to replace his brakes, spark plugs, and tires. The following information was available with respect to his job:
Direct materials $ 590
Direct labor cost $ 109
Direct labor-hours used 6
Compute Mr. Wilkes’ total job cost.
3. If Speedy establishes its selling prices using a markup percentage of 40% of its total job cost, then how much would it have charged Mr. Wilkes?

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct labor-hours required to support estimated output 20,000

Fixed overhead cost $ 350,000

Variable overhead cost per direct labor-hour $ 1.00

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (350,000/20,000) + 1

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $18.5 per direct labor hour

Job:

Direct materials $ 590

Direct labor cost $ 109

Direct labor-hours used 6

Total cost= 590 + 109 + 6*18.5

Total cost= $810

Finally, the selling price:

Selling price= 810*1.4= $1,134

The bond has a coupon rate of 6.23 percent, it makes semiannual payments, and there are 4 months to the next coupon payment. A clean price of $989 and the par value is $1,000. What is the invoice price?

Answers

Answer:

Invoice price = $999.38

Explanation:

DATA

coupon rate = 6.23%

clean price = $989

par value = $1,000

invoice price = ?

Solution

As mentioned above the interest is paid semi-annually and there are 4 months to the next coupon payment it means that the last coupon payment was made 2 months ago therefore the accrued interest will be paid for 2 months.

Working

6 months coupon payment = $1000 x 6.23% x 6/12

6 months coupon payment = $31.15

Accrued interest for 2 months = $31.15 x 2/6

Accrued interest for 2 months = $10.38

Invoice price = Clean price + Accrued interest

Invoice price = $989 + $10.38

Invoice price = $999.38
