Answer:
debit to Raw Materials of $75,000
Explanation:
In this scenario, the journal entry to record the purchase of raw materials would include a debit to Raw Materials of $75,000. A debit is an entry recording a sum owed, listed on the left-hand side or column of an account. Therefore in accounting, since Gullet Corporation's purchase was for an "additional" $75,000 worth of raw material, they owe that money to the company and must make it up through sales that those materials should generate in the future. That is why it is recorded as a debit.

Which of the following is not considered to be a liability? Answers: a. Wages Payable b. Unearned Revenues c. Accounts Payable d. Accounts Receivable
Answer:
d. Accounts Receivable.
Explanation:
In Financial accounting, liability can be defined as the amount of money being owed by an individual or organization to another.
Simply stated, liability is a debt being owed and as such it usually has "payable" in its account title on the balance sheet.
Generally, liabilities are recorded on the right side of the balance sheet and it comprises of financial informations such as warranties, bonds, loans, deferred revenues, mortgages, account payable etc.
Accounts Receivable is not considered to be a liability because it is the payment a business firm would receive from its customers for goods purchased or services taken on credit. Accounts Receivable are recorded in the current assets section of the balance sheet because they add value to a business firm.

There are many variants to monopoly, including pure monopoly, natural, and monopolistic competition.
A granary allocates the cost of unprocessed wheat to the production of feed, flour, and starch. For the current period, unprocessed wheat was purchased for $240,000, and the following quantities of product and sales revenues were produced.
Product Pounds Price per Pound
Feed 100,000 $0.70
Flour 50,000 2.20
Starch 20,000 1.00
How much of the $240,000 cost should be allocated to feed?
a. $24,500.
b. $84,000.
c. $90,000.
d. $70,000.
e. $200,000.
Answer:
$84,000
Explanation:
A granny allocates the costs of unprocessed wheat to production of feed, flour and starch
The unprocessed wheat was bought at the price of $240,000
The first step is to calculate the total amount of the products(feed, flour and starch)
Feed= 100,000×0.70= 70,000
Flour= 50,000×2.0= 110,000
Starch= 20,000×1.0= 20,000
Total cost= 70,000+110,000+20,000
= $200,000
Therefore, the amount that should be allocated to the feed can be calculated as follows
= $70,000/$200,000×$240,000
= 0.35×$240,000
= $84,000
Hence the cost that should be allocated to the feed is $84,000
A firm only has current assets and fixed assets. Its current assets are $100,000 and total assets are $300,000. The firm's sales are $900,000. The firm's fixed asset turnover is
Answer:
Firm's fixed asset turnover = 4.5
Explanation:
Given:
Current assets = $100,000
Total assets = $300,000
Firm's sales = $900,000
Find:
Firm's fixed asset turnover
Computation:
Fixed assets = Total assets - Current assets
Fixed assets = $300,000 - $100,000
Fixed assets = $200,000
Fixed asset turnover = Sales / Fixed asset
Firm's fixed asset turnover = $900,000 / $200,000
Firm's fixed asset turnover = 4.5

Assume that on December 31, 2019, Kimberly-Clark Corp. signs a 10-year, non-cancelable lease agreement to lease a storage building from Sheffield Storage Company. The following information pertains to this lease agreement.
1. The agreement requires equal rental payments of $67,299 beginning on December 31, 2019.
2. The fair value of the building on December 31, 2019 is $492,571.
3. The building has an estimated economic life of 12 years, a guaranteed residual value of $10,500, and an expected residual value of $7,300. Kimberly-Clark depreciates similar buildings on the straight-line method.
4. The lease is nonrenewable. At the termination of the lease, the building reverts to the lessor.
5. Kimberly-Clark’s incremental borrowing rate is 8% per year. The lessor’s implicit rate is not known by Kimberly-Clark.
a. Prepare the journal entries on the lessee’s books to reflect the signing of the lease agreement and to record the payments and expenses related to this lease for the years 2019, 2020, and 2021. Kimberly-Clark’s fiscal year-end is December 31.
b. Suppose the same facts as above, except that Kimberly-Clark incurred legal fees resulting from the execution of the lease of $5,000, and received a lease incentive from Sheffield to enter the lease of $1,000. How would the initial measurement of the lease liability and right-of-use asset be affected under this situation?
Right-of-use asset
$:
c. Suppose that in addition to the $67,299 annual rental payments, Kimberly-Clark is also required to pay $5,000 for insurance costs each year on the building directly to the lessor, Sheffield Storage. How would this executory cost affect the initial measurement of the lease liability and right-of-use asset? (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.)
Lease liability $
d. Now suppose that, at the end of the lease term, Kimberly-Clark took good care of the asset and Sheffield agrees that the fair value of the asset is actually $10,500. Record the entry for Kimberly-Clark at the end of the lease to return control of the storage building to Sheffield (assuming the accrual of interest on the lease liability has already been made).

Amortization expense is the annual lease payment less the PV of use of Asset.
You have a portfolio that is equally invested in Stock F with a beta of 1.08, Stock G with a beta of 1.45, and the market. What is the beta of your portfolio
Answer:
1.265
Explanation:
According to the situation, the solution of the beta of portfolio is as follows
Beta portfolio = (weightage of investment F × beta F) + (proportion of investment G ×beta G)
Beta protfolio = (0.5 × 1.08) + (0.5 × 1.45)
= 0.54 + 0.725
= 1.265
Hence, the beta of your portfolio is 1.265 by applying the above formula

The graphical probability distribution of ROE for a firm that uses financial leverage would tend to be more peaked than the distribution if the firm used no leverage, other things held constant.
A. True
B. False
Answer: False
Explanation:
The return on equity is used to know how profitable a business is when it's being compared to its equity.
The sentence in the question that the graphical probability distribution of ROE for a firm that uses financial leverage would tend to be more peaked than the distribution if the firm used no leverage, other things held constant is false.
The statement is not true because in such scenario, the graphical probability distribution will be less peaked than the distribution.
On January 1, 2017, Boston Enterprises issues bonds that have a $2,050,000 par value, mature in 20 years, and pay 8% interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds are sold at par. 1. How much interest will Boston pay (in cash) to the bondholders every six months
Answer:
Boston will pay (in cash) to the bondholders every six months $125,146.31.
Explanation:
The interest paid in cash PMT, can be calculated as follows :
PV = $2,050,000
N = 20 × 2 = 40
R = 8%
FV = $2,050,000
P/yr = 2
PMT = ?
Using a financial calculator to enter the above data concerning the bond, the payments (PMT) every six months is $125,146.3062 or $125,146.31.
Lincoln Park Co. has a bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.66 percent and semiannual payments. The yield to maturity is 6.3 percent and the bond matures in 16 years. What is the market price if the bond has a par value of $2,000?
Answer:
Market price of Bond = $1872.135629 rounded off to $1872.14
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 2000 * 0.0566 * 1/2 = $56.6
Total periods (n)= 16 * 2 = 32
r = 6.3% * 1/2 = 3.15% or 0.0315
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 56.6 * [( 1 - (1+0.0315)^-32) / 0.0315] + 2000 / (1+0.0315)^32
Bond Price = $1872.135629 rounded off to $1872.14
a company sells 600 bottles of a dietary supplement per week at$ 100 per bottle. The supplement is ordered from a supplier who charges fixed cost of $30 per order, and $ 50 per bottle. The annual inventory holding cost is 40%. Assume the company operates 50 weeks in a year. What is the optimal number of bottles company should order?
Answer:
the economic order quantity or optimal quantity = 300 bottles per order
Explanation:
economic order quantity (EOQ) = √[(2SD) / H]
S = cost per order = $30D = annual demand = 600 x 50 weeks = 30,000H = holding costs = $50 x 40% = $20EOQ = √[(2 x $30 x 30,000) / $20] = √($1,800,000 / $20) = √90,000 = 300
This means that the company must make 2 orders per week and 100 orders per year. This happens because the holding costs per unit are too high, therefore, in order to reduce costs you must have a small inventory.

Answer:
Tasks of the Federal Reserve
Managing the U.S. Money Supply - one of the main functions of the Federal Reserve is managing the money supply: the quantity of money that there is in the economy. The Federal Reserve can either increase or contract the money supply.
Printing paper currency - when the Federal Reserve increases the money supply, part of that supply is printed as paper currency.
Acting as a lender of last resort - when commercial banks or governments do not have any other creditor, they turn to the Federal Reserve, which has the obligation to act as a lender of last resort.
Engaging in monetary policy - this is the reason why the Federal Reserve exists in first place. The main activity of the Fed is to engage in monetary policy, mainly with the goal of controlling inflation, and easing economic cycles.
Not tasks of the Federal Reserve
Creating the federal budget - the federal budget is developed by the president, and also by the Congress.
Engaging in fiscal policy - fiscal policy is responsability of the president, and the Congress.

Brief Exercise 8-5 Vaughn Company uses a periodic inventory system. For April, when the company sold 450 units, the following information is available. Units Unit Cost Total Cost April 1 inventory330$22$ 7,260 April 15 purchase380269,880 April 23 purchase 290 29 8,410 1,000 $25,550 Compute the April 30 inventory and the April cost of goods sold using the FIFO method. Ending inventory $ Cost of goods sold
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units sold= 450 units
Units Unit Cost Total Cost
April 1 inventory= 330 units at $22
April 15 purchase= 380 units art $26
April 23 purchase= 290 units at $29
To calculate the ending inventory, first, we need to determine the number of units in ending inventory:
Ending inventory in units= 330 + 380 + 290 - 450= 550 units
Ending inventory FIFO= 290*29 + 260*26= $15,170
COGS= 330*22 + 120*26= $10,380
Richman Company purchased $900,000 of 8%, 5-year bonds from Carlin, Inc. on January 1, 2022, with interest payable on July 1 and January 1. The bonds sold for $937,422 at an effective interest rate of 7%. Using the effective interest method, Richman Company decreased the Available-for-Sale Debt Securities account for the Carlin, Inc. bonds on July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022 by the amortized premiums of $3,186 and $3,294, respectively. At December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Carlin, Inc. bonds was $954,000. What should Richman Company report as other comprehensive income in the 2022 Comprehensive Income Statement
Answer:
$23,058
Explanation:
For calculation of Other comprehensive income first we will find out the total amortized premiums which is shown below:-
Total amortized premiums = 3,186 + 3,294
= $6,480
Other comprehensive income = Fair value on December 31, 2022 - (Selling price of bonds - Total amortized premiums)
= $954,000 - ($937,422 - $6,480)
= $954,000 - $930,942
= $23,058
We simply applied the above formula.

Per Chevron’s 3Q 2013 filing, what was the percentage change in the cost of purchased oil products when comparing nine months ended September 30, 2013 versus the same period in 2012?
Answer:
Per Chevron 3Q 2013 Filling:
The percentage change in the cost of purchased oil products nine months to September 30, 2013 when compared to nine months in 2012 was:
2.47%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of purchased oil products:
2013 $34,822,000,000
2012 $33,982,000,000
Change $840,000,000
Percentage Change = $840/$33,982 x 100
= 2.47%
b) The implication is that Chevron's cost of purchased oil products in third quarter of 2013 increased by 2.47% when compared with the same period in 2012. This percentage change is calculated by subtracting the Q3 2012 cost of purchased oil products from the Q3 2013 cost of purchased oil products and then dividing the difference by the Q3 2012, and multiplying by 100. The change could be caused by increases in the price of oil products or other variables.
Jack and Jill need to save $6100 toward a new car. How long will it take them if they save $200 a month earning interest at 4.7% per year
Answer:
2 years 5 months.
Explanation:
Use the Time Value of Money techniques to find n (period it takes to save for required amount)
Using a financial calculator enter the following data
Fv = $6,100
Pmt = - $ 200 × 12 = - $2,400
P/y = 1
r = 4.7 %
Pv = 0
n = 2.4569
Thus it takes 2 years 5 months to save $6100 toward a new car under the given circumstances.
Product Pricing: Two Products Quality Data manufactures two products, CDs and DVDs, both on the same assembly lines and packaged 10 disks per pack. The predicted sales are 400,000 packs of CDs and 500,000 packs of DVDs. The predicted costs for the year 2014 are as follows:
Variable Costs Fixed Costs
Materials $200,000 $500,000
Other 250,000 800,000
Each product uses 50 percent of the materials costs. Based on manufacturing time, 40 percent of the other costs are assigned to the CDs, and 60 percent of the other costs are assigned to the DVDs. The management of Quality Data desires an annual profit of $100,000.
(a) What price should Quality Data charge for each disk pack if management believes the DVDs sell for 20 percent more than the CDs? Round answers to the nearest cent.
CDs $
DVDs $
(b) What is the total profit per product using the selling prices determined in part (a)? Use negative signs with answers, if appropriate.
CDs $
DVDs $
Answer:
a) $1.85 per CD pack
$2.22 per DVD pack
b) profits for selling CDs = -$30,000
profits for selling DVDs = $130,000
Explanation:
Variable costs Fixed costs
Materials $200,000 $500,000
Other $250,000 $800,000
DVDs:
materials = $700,000 x 50% = $350,000 ($250,000 fixed)
Other = $1,050,000 x 60% = $630,000 ($480,000 fixed)
total = $980,000
CDs:
materials = $350,000 ($250,000 fixed)
Other = $420,000 ($320,000 fixed)
total = $770,000
Expected sales:
CDs 400,000 packs
DVDs 500,000 packs
since the company wants to earn $100,000 in profits, it should charge:
400,000X - $770,000 + 500,000Y - $980,000 = $100,000
400,000X + 500,000Y = $1,850,000
Y = 1.2X (we replace Y)
400,000X + 600,000X = $1,850,000
1,000,000X = $1,850,000
X = $1,850,000 / 1,000,000 = $1.85 per CD pack
Y = $1.85 x 1.2 = $2.22 per DVD pack
profits for selling CDs = ($1.85 x 400,000) - $770,000 = -$30,000
