Home Inspirations Mary works for her father in a family-owned business called Home Inspirations, a bedding company that has been in operation since the 1800s. When her father retires, Mary plans on taking over the business. Mary is aware of many things about the company that she likes, and a few things that she does not. She has particularly noted that when the economy has low unemployment and high total income, sales are great. However, any other time, sales are not so good. Currently, all of the bedding items are created in one place and everyone works on various tasks every day. Mary is thinking about streamlining the production process so that individuals would be responsible for only one task. She believes that if production would increase, she could sell her products at a lower price and increase revenue. She knows that most bedding products available in the market are very similar in nature and satisfy the same need. However, if she were able to lower prices, this might give her company the competitive advantage that it needs. She would then be able to invest money in differentiating her products by providing unique features, building the brand name, and offering services such as free delivery. She is also considering selling her products on the Internet. Mary knows that her father does not like change very much, but she feels these changes are important for the future of the company.
Refer to Home Inspirations.Mary noticed that when sales were up,the economy was in a
A) depression.
B) peak period.
C) grace period.
D) recession.
E) stagnant mode.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B (peak period) is the correct choice.

Explanation:

The time throughout the day as well as a period where this production is at its peak for items and/or services. A peak seems to be the tallest structure of such a global economy between some of the completion of economic growth as well as the beginning of a recession. Hailey found that perhaps the economy must have been at a peak time although profits were up.

The remaining four options are not aligned with the situation in question. So, the solution above is the right one.

Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead cost is shown below:-

Overapplied overhead cost = Actual Manufacturing overhead costs - Manufacturing overhead applied

= $473,000 - (19,400 × $25)

= $473,000 - $485,000

= $12,000

As energy costs continue to rise, power efficiency is increasingly important. Acme Chemical is evaluating 2 different electric motors to drive a mixing motor and needs to perform a present economy study. The motor will produce 75 hp and will be operated 8 hours per day, 365 days for one year (maintenance will be performed on second shift—assume no down time during operation), after which time the motor will have no value. Select the most economical motor. Assume Acme’ s electric power costs $0.16 per kWh. (1 hp = 0.746 kW).
Motor A Motor B
Purchase price $3,200 $5,900
Annual maintenance cost $250 $450
Efficiency 75% 85%

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

For motor A, efficiency = 75%= 0.75 hence:

[tex]Operating\ cost\ of\ motor\ A=\frac{75\ hp}{0.75} *\frac{0.746\ kW}{hp}*\frac{\$0.16}{kWh} *\frac{8\ hr}{day}*\frac{365\ days}{year} \\\\Operating\ cost\ of\ motor\ A=\$34853[/tex]

Total cost for motor A = operating cost + purchase cost = $34853 + $3200

Total cost for motor A = $38053

For motor B, efficiency = 85% = 0.85

[tex]Operating\ cost\ of\ motor\ B=\frac{75\ hp}{0.85} *\frac{0.746\ kW}{hp}*\frac{\$0.16}{kWh} *\frac{8\ hr}{day}*\frac{365\ days}{year} \\\\Operating\ cost\ of\ motor\ B=\$30753[/tex]

Total cost for motor B = operating cost + purchase cost = $30753 + $5900

Total cost for motor B = $36653

Therefore motor B is more economical since it has a lesser total cost

Your company is estimated to make dividends payments of $2.2 next year, $3.8 the year after, and $4.8 in the year after that. The dividends will then grow at a constant rate of 6% per year. If the discount rate is 13% then what is the current stock price

Answers

Answer: $58.62

Explanation:

Current stock price = Present value of dividends + Present value of stock with constant dividend

Present value of stock with constant dividend = (Dividend in year 3 * (1 + Growth rate)) / (Discount rate - Growth rate)

= (4.8 * (1 + 6%)) / (13% - 6%)

= $72.6857142857

Current Stock Price = (2.2 / (1 + 13%)) +(3.8 / (1 + 13%)^2) + (4.8 / (1 + 13%)^3) + (72.6857142857/(1 + 13%) ^ 3)

= $58.62

A sales budget serves two basic purposes:

It serves as a planning tool in order to prepare a production budget and a cash collections budget. It also serves as a control tool since management can use them to control the performance of different diversions, e.g. obviously it sets the goals for marketing and sales division, but it is also useful when controlling perceived product quality.

Credit Sales Revenue $2,100

To record the sale of goods on account.

Explanation:

The LIFO inventory costing method determines the cost of goods sold by using the latest units in inventory.  This is because the LIFO method assumes that the newest units of goods are sold first.  This means that the ending inventory will include the costs of goods purchased earlier than the sales date.

Eileen transfers property worth $200,000, basis of $60,000, to Goldfinch Corporation. In return, she receives 82% of the stock in Goldfinch Corporation worth $180,000, and a ten year note, executed by Goldfinch and made payable to Eileen, worth $20,000. Eileen will recognize no gain on the transfer of:_______.
a. $190,000.
b. 50.
c. $20,000.
d. $10,000.
e. none of these cholces are correct.

Answers

Answer:

C. $20,000

Explanation:

Given the data below,

Property transfered = $200,000

Basis = $60,000

Return = 82℅

Fair market value = $180,000

Long term fair market value = $20,000

In the above scenario, we can safely say that Eileen realized gain of $140,000 on the transfer of property, which is due to;

Property worth $200,000 - basis $60,000 = $140,000.

However, because recognized gain cannot exceed the lesser of realized gain ($140,000) or the boot received ($20,000), the recognized gain is therefore $20,000

Suppose you are the information technology (IT) manager for an IT company. You receive a report that contains a list of computer equipment stored in the company warehouse. You notice that the list also includes items that you know are not stored in the warehouse. Would you consider this list as good information? Why, or why not? Give some examples of at least three items on this list that you consider to be good information and at least three items on this list that would not be good information. Explain your reasoning, and include a discussion about why good information is important in management information systems (MIS).

Answers

Answer:

The summary including its query given is mentioned beneath.

Explanation:

The collection includes products which are housed throughout the warehouse, and even some products which have not been housed in the warehouse. Given that perhaps the document appears expected to contain a collection of stock in the warehouse, I would assume that even this documentation isn't really pleasant. That's because each list would rank very poorly whenever it comes to data accuracy.  

Most of the other things which could be regarded strong data mostly on list seem to be:

Collection of products that would be in the warehouse throughout fact.  The list becomes more certainly exhaustive as well as coincides with the intent of preparation.  The number of objects would surpass the confidence interval which, in comparative purposes, have a buffer.  

The list still has pitfalls, and many of the things that would be deemed poor knowledge have become:

Name and sometimes acknowledgement of products that weren't in the warehouse through fact.  Wrong estimate including its variety of products.  Details should never be used for this same real-time estimation of storage facility-related data.

In MIS, accurate knowledge is crucial because MIS offers an interlinked mechanism amongst servers and applications that lets organizations making informed decisions, support processes, and the organization structure of support. If the evidence is not strong, so inaccurate decisions based through mistaken conclusions will interfere throughout the decision-making process. As a consequence, performance, effect and potential loss of sales may be lost.

Hults Corporation has provided data concerning the company's Manufacturing Overhead account for the month of November. Prior to the closing of the overapplied or underapplied balance to Cost of Goods Sold, the total of the debits to the Manufacturing Overhead account was $75,150 and the total of the credits to the account was $66,900. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Manufacturing overhead applied to Work in Process for the month was $68,800.B. Manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by $8,000.C. Manufacturing overhead transferred from Finished Goods to Cost of Goods Sold during the month was $68,800.D. Actual manufacturing overhead incurred during the month was $60,800.

Answers

Answer:

Manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by $8,250.

Explanation:

Since in the question it is mentioned that the total debits of manufacturing overhead is $75,150 and the total credits of manufacturing overhead is $66,900

So the difference is of

= $75,150 - $66,900

= $8,250

This amount would be reflected as an underapplied overhead

This is the answer and the same is to considered

A.​ 62.03%.B.​ 45.79%.C.​ 50.74%.D. ​71.98%.

Answers

Answer: 61.84%

Explanation:

The Return on Assets is a ratio that measures how effectively assets are being utilized to earn revenue.

The formula is;

Return on total Asset = Operating Income /Average Total assets

Operating Income = Net Income + Interest expense = 181,000 + 24,000 = $205,000

Average Total Assets = (Beginning Assets + Ending Assets) / 2 = (406,000 + 257,000) / 2 = $331,500

Return on Assets = 205,000/331,500 = 61.84%

The options listed are most probably for a variant of this question.

b. The correct ratio.

1. ROE
2. ROA
3. Debit ratio

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:-

Incorrect

ROA = Net Income ÷ Average assets

= $101,900 ÷ (($550,000 + $573,000) ÷ 2)

= $101,900 ÷ $561,500

= 0.18

ROE = Net Income ÷ Average equity

= $101,900 ÷ (($340,000 + 356,000) ÷ 2)

= $101,900 ÷ $348,000

= 0.29

Debt Ratio = Total debt ÷ Average Assets

= $217,000 ÷ (($550,000 + $573,000) ÷ 2)

= $217,000 ÷ $561,500

= 0.39

EPS = Net Income ÷ Number of Common Shares

= $101,900 ÷ 22,000

= $4.63

Correct

ROA = Net Income ÷ Average assets

= ($101,900 - $8,500) ÷ (($550,000 + $573,000 - $8,500) ÷ 2)

= $93,400 ÷ $557,250

= 0.17

ROE = Net Income ÷ Average equity

= ($101,900 - $8,500) ÷ (($340,000 + 356,000 - $8,500) ÷ 2)

= $93,400 ÷ $343,750

= 0.27

Debt Ratio = Total debt ÷ Average Assets

= $217,000 ÷ (($550,000 + $573,000 - $8,500) ÷ 2)

= $217,000 ÷ $276,500

= 0.78

EPS = Net Income ÷ Number of Common Shares

= ($101,900 - $8,500) ÷ 22,000

= $4.25

Randy is the manager of a motel. As a condition of his employment, Randy is required to live in a room on the premises so that he would be there in case of emergencies. Randy considered this a fringe benefit since he would otherwise be required to pay $800 per month rent. The room that Randy occupied normally rented for $70 per night, or $2,100 per month. On the average, 90% of the motel rooms were occupied. As a result of this rent-free use of a room, Randy is required to include how much gross income?

Answer:

a. $0

Explanation:

a. $0

b. $800 per month.

Bill was severely injured when he was hit by a car while jogging. He spent one month in the hospital and missed three months of work because of the injuries. Total medical costs were $54,000. Bill received the following payments as a result of the accident:
His employer-provided accident insurance reimbursed him for $43,200 of the medical costs and provided him with $3,800 in sick pay while he was out of work.
A private medical insurance policy purchased by Bill paid him $10,800 for medical costs.
His employer gave Bill $7,200 to help him get through his re-habilitation period.
A separate disability policy that Bill had purchased paid him $3,800.
How much gross income does Bill have as a result of the payments received for the accident?

Answers

Answer:

$11,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate gross income for the payments received as a result of the accident, we will consider the amount provided by Bill's employer as a result of being out of work and add it with money provided for rehabilitation process.

In this case, the sick during out of work is $3,800 and amount for rehabilitation period help is $7,200. Hence, the gross income is $11,000.

Note: The medical reimbursement are not taxable and are therefore not calculated as an individuals gross income.

Stockholders' equity next year = current stockholders equity + forecasted dividend

Given that sales is forecasted to grow by 8% next year and 50% is paid out

Given that current stockholders' equity =$22.2(millions)

Forecasted sales next year= $185.8(sale this year) * 1.08= $200.944 million

Forecasted net income = $200.644*0.009688= $1.9438

Given 50% of net income = $1.9438*0.5= $0.9719

Forecasted stockholders equity= $22.2+$0.9719= $23.171
