Answer:
Reward system
Explanation:
The reward system is the mechanism that a company uses to provide a compensation to their employees that can include salary, bonuses, equity and perks to keep them happy, maintain loyalty and increase motivation. This allows the company to have a strong team that is willing to work hard in their daily activities to achieve the company's goals.
According to this, the answer is that in many larger U.S. based firms the reward system match(es) the overall strategy of the firm and reinforce(s) the culture emerging from day-to-day activities because the reward system is established in a way in which it contributes to the appropiate implementation of the strategy to achieve the goals and it also helps strengthen the way in which people perform their activities.
Whirly Corporation’s contribution format income statement for the most recent month is shown below: Total Per Unit Sales (7,100 units) $ 227,200 $ 32.00 Variable expenses 134,900 19.00 Contribution margin 92,300 $ 13.00 Fixed expenses 54,800 Net operating income $ 37,500 Required: (Consider each case independently): 1. What would be the revised net operating income per month if the sales volume increases by 80 units? 2. What would be the revised net operating income per month if the sales volume decreases by 80 units? 3. What would be the revised net operating income per month if the sales volume is 6,100 units?
Answer:
1. $38,540
2. $37,500
3. $24,500
Explanation:
1. The computation of revised net operating income per month if the sales volume increases by 80 units is shown below:-
Net operating income = Sales - Variable expenses - Fixed expenses
= (71,80 × $32) - (7,180 × $19) - $54,800
= $229,760 - $136,420 - $54,800
= $38,540
2. The computation of revised net operating income per month if the sales volume decreases by 80 units is shown below:-
Net operating income = Sales - Variable expenses - Fixed expenses
= (71,00 × $32) - (7,100 × $19) - $54,800
= $227,200 - $134,900 - $54,800
= $37,500
3. The computation of revised net operating income per month if the sales volume is 6,100 units is shown below:-
Net operating income = Sales - Variable expenses - Fixed expenses
= (61,00 × $32) - (6,100 × $19) - $54,800
= $195,200 - $115,900 - $54,800
= $24,500
A person presently owes $5,000 on a credit card bill. As a penalty, he/she has to pay a uniform amount of $700 per month for a year. The rate of return per month that the credit card company make in a year is closest to: g
Answer:
The company get $283.33 return per monthExplanation:
Given that the person is to pay $700 per month for one year
Hence after one year elapse he will pay a total of
$700*12= $8,400
The returns the credit card company will get after one year is
yearly return= $8,400-$5,000= $3,400.
The rate of return per month= $3,400/12= $283.33.

Required:
1. Calculate ROI for 2020. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
2. Calculate ROE for 2020. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
3. Calculate working capital at December 31, 2020.
4. Calculate the current ratio at December 31, 2020. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
5. Calculate the acid-test ratio at December 31, 2020. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
1. 16.83%
2. 28.04%
3. $101,000
4. 1.97
5. 0.98
Explanation:
Return On Investment (ROI) = Net Profit After Tax / Total Assets × 100
= $53,000 / $ 315,000 × 100
= 16.825 or 16.83%
Return On Equity (ROE) =Net Profit After Tax / Total Shareholders Funds × 100
= $53,000 / $ 189,000 × 100
= 28.0423 or 28.04 %
Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
= $ 205,000 - $ 104,000
= $101,000
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
= $ 205,000 / $ 104,000
= 1.9712 or 1.97
Acid Test Ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities
= ($ 205,000 - $ 103,000) / $ 104,000
= 0.98077 or 0.98

The American car battery industry boasts that its recycling rate now exceeds 95%, the highest rate for any commodity. However, with changes brought about by specialization and globalization, parts of the recycling system are moving offshore. This is particularly true of automobile batteries, which contain lead. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is contributing to the offshore flow with newly implemented standards that make domestic battery recycling increasingly difficult and expensive. The result is a major increase in used batteries going to Mexico, where environmental standards and control are less demanding than they are in the U.S. One in five batteries is now exported to Mexico. There is seldom difficulty finding buyers because lead is expensive and in worldwide demand. While U.S. recyclers operate in sealed, mechanized plants, with smokestacks equipped with scrubbers and plant surroundings monitored for traces of lead, this is not the case in most Mexican plants. The harm from lead is legendary
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The question is incomplete. There are parts of the question missing. Indeed, there is no question posted, it is just a statement.
However, we can do research and comment on the following.
We are facing two scenarios here. Both, ethical dilemmas that need to be solved.
1) as an independent auto repair shop owner that tries to safely dispose of a few old batteries each week. (Your battery supplier is an auto parts supplier who refuses to take your old batteries.)
In this case, I would check the original agreement with the supplier to see if there is a clause on old batteries management. If not, I would ask it to help me solve this issue because I am his client and has to take care of me and the environment. Otherwise, I would have to contemplate the option of changing supplier.
2) I am the manager of a large retailer responsible for the disposal of thousands of used batteries each day.
In this other case, I would follow the Environmental Department rules and regulations to comply with the correct procedures. This means to ask for support and orientation to get all the revisions to work properly. Because I know all the consequences of not recycling correctly or the damage done to humans and the environment. So although it could be more money, and would modernize my equipment to better manage the disposal of batteries. It would be an investment, not an expense.
What is the difference in operating income between processing the cat bowls further versus selling them off at the split-off point?
Answer: -$1,920
Explanation:
Operating Income if processed further would be;
= (Sales * Price) - Incremental Cost
= (1,000 * $14) - 4,920
= 14,000 - 4,920
= $9,080
Operating Income if sold off at split-off point;
= Sales * Price
= 1,000 * $11
= $11,000
Difference
= Processed Further - Sold at split-off
= 9,080 - 11,000
= -$1,920
Difference would be an Operating (loss) of $1,920.
Consider the following information for Maynor Company, which uses a periodic inventory system:
Transaction Units Unit Cost Total Cost
January 1 Beginning
Inventory 29 $ 79 $ 2,291
March 28 Purchase 39 85 3,315
August 22 Purchase 58 89 5,162
October 14 Purchase 63 95 5,985
Goods Available for Sale 189 $ 16,753
The company sold 63 units on May 1 and 58 units on October 28.
Required:
Calculate the company's ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the each of following inventory costing methods. (Round the per unit cost to two decimal places and then round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)
a. FIFO:
b. LIFO:
c. Weighted Average
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
January 1 Beginning Inventory 29 $79 $2,291
March 28 Purchase 39 $85 3,315
August 22 Purchase 58 $89 5,162
October 14 Purchase 63 $95 5,985
The company sold 63 units on May 1 and 58 units on October 28.
First, we need to calculate the units in ending inventory:
Ending inventory in units= 189 - 121= 68
To calculate the ending inventory under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the last units incorporated into inventory.
Ending inventory= 63*95 + 5*89= $6,430
COGS= 29*79 + 39*85 + 53*89= $10,323
To calculate the ending inventory under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the first units incorporated into the inventory
Ending inventory= 29*79 + 39*85= $5,606
COGS= 63*95 + 58*89= $11,147
Finally, to calculate the ending inventory using the weighted-average, we need to calculate the weighted average price:
weighted average price= 16,753/189= $88.64
Ending inventory= 68*88.64= $6,027.52
COGS= 121*88.64= $10,725.44
Salary expense was 15.5% of sales this year. If sales this year are $1,300,000 and are forecasted to be $1,500,000 next year, what is forecasted salary expense next year if all expenses maintain a constant percent of sales?
Answer:
Salary expense next year=$232,500
Explanation:
The ratio of expense to ales is an important which helps in the management and control overhead.
We can be predict the Salary expense using the information given about the relationship between salary expense and sales .
If salary expense is 15.5% of sales, then Salary expense this year =
15.5% × 1,300,000=$201,500
Salary expense next year = 15.5% × foretasted sales next year
= 15.5% × 1,500,000 = $232,500
We use 15.5% because the relationship between the expenses and the sales in proportion is expected to remain the same
Salary expense next year=$232,500
A firm sells 300,000 units per week. It charges $ 35 per unit, the average variable costs are $40, and the average costs are $55. In the long run, the firm should

You experiment by offering free warranties for your product in market A but not in market B. Sales in A rise from 240 to 360 units per week while sales in B rise from 410 to 430. The Difference-in-difference estimate of the effect of the free warranty is:
Answer:
Difference in difference estimate = 50 - 5% = 45 %
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Market A Market B
Sales 240 410
Sales rise 360 430
Rise difference 120 20
Percentage of rise 50% 5%
120/240 x 100 = 50%
20/41 x 100 = 4.878% or 5%
Therefore, the Difference in difference estimate = 50 - 5% = 45 %
One can then say that the free warranties in market A brought about a difference in difference of 45% in Market A when compared to the no warranties in Market B. This can be seen from the presented data. Sales in A rose from 240 units to 360 units, an increase of 120 units or 50%. Sales in market B only rose from 410 to 430, an increase of 20 units or 5%. This difference in difference estimator shows the effect of the free warranty on market A and market B. This means that the firm could do better by introducing the free warranties for its product in market B, all things being equal.

A firm has explicit costs of $100,000 and implicit costs of $30,000, and generates $150,000 in revenue. How much revenue does it need to have a normal profit
Answer:
above $130,000
Explanation:
Implicit cost is the opportunity cost that is incurred from the use of a company's resources, while explicit cost are those incurred in the normal running of the business. For example wages, utility payment, and raw material cost.
Total cost = Explicit cost + Implicit Cost
Total cost = $100,000 + $30,000
Total Cost = $130,000
Profit = Revenue - Total cost
So if profit is 0
0 = Revenue - $130,000
Revenue = $130,000
Therefore to get a normal profit that is above 0, the revenue should be above $130,000
Answer:
$130,000
Explanation:
Normal profit occurs when revenues equal explicit and implicit costs.
total revenue = explicit cost + implicit cost
$100,000 + $30,000 = $130,000
Gift property (disregarding any adjustment for gift tax paid by the donor): a.Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain. b.Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a loss, and the fair market value on the date of gift was less than the donor's adjusted basis. c.Has a zero basis to the donee if the fair market value on the date of gift is less than the donor's adjusted basis. d.Has no basis to the donee because he or she did not pay anything for the property.
Answer: Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain.
Explanation:
For a gifted property, it should be noted that the tax basis for a donee that is, the person who gets the gift will be identical to that of the donor, this is, the person that donates the gift in cases whereby the property is gotten as a gift.
Therefore, a gift property disregarding any adjustment for gift tax paid by the donor will have the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain.
Retired utility workers are suing their former employer for knowingly exposing them to asbestos without warning them of the health risks. The retired workers did not learn of the prolonged exposure until long after their retirement because the company engaged in a systematic cover up of the exposure. The retired workers' cause of action is for which of the following?
a. Assault
b. Battery
c. Injurious falsehood
d. Tortious interference
Answer:
b. Battery
Explanation:
Retired utility workers are suing their former employer for knowingly exposing them to asbestos without warning them of the health risks. The retired workers did not learn of the prolonged exposure until long after their retirement because the company engaged in a systematic cover up of the exposure. The retired workers' cause of action is for battery.
In Business law, battery can be defined as the act of intentionally causing physical harm to an individual or group of people through physical contacts.
Hence, in this case the employers knowingly or intentionally exposed the retired workers to asbestos without warning them of the health risks associated.
Simply stated, a battery in criminal law is completed assault.
On January 1, 20X7, Server Company purchased a machine with an expected economic life of five years. On January 1, 20X9, Server sold the machine to Patron Corporation and recorded the following entry:
Cash 45,000
Accumulated Depreciation 28,000
Machine 70,000
Gain on Sale of Equipment 3,000
Patron Corporation holds 75 percent of Server's voting shares. Server reported net income of $50,000, and Patron reported income from its own operations of $100,000 for 20X9. There is no change in the estimated economic life of the equipment as a result of the intercorporate transfer. Based on the preceding information, in the preparation of the 20X9 consolidated income statement, machine will be what amount and will it be debited or credited in the consolidation entry?
Answer:
Consolidation entry is given below
Explanation:
Consolidated Entry DEBIT CREDIT
Machinery(w) $42,000
Loss on purchase $3,000
Cash $45,000
NOTE: We will record a loss in consolidation entry because the consideration paid is greater than the machinery's carrying value.
Working
Carrying value = Net book value - Accumulated Depreciation
Carrying value = $70,000 - $28,000
Carrying value = $42,000
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
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%

A pound of steak costs $10 in the U.S. and 56.25 riyals (the currency of Saudi Arabia) in Saudi Arabia. If the real exchange rate is 2/3, what is the nominal exchange rate
Answer: 3.75 Riyals / USD
Explanation:
The Real Exchange rate is different from the Nominal exchange rate as it takes into account, the differences between the 2 nations being compared in terms of prices of goods and services.
As such it can be used to calculate the Nominal rate;
Real Exchange Rate = (Cost in U.S. x Nominal Exchange Rate) / Cost in Saudi Arabia
2/3 = (10 x Nominal Exchange Rate) / 56.25
2/3 x 56.25 = 10 x Nominal Exchange Rate
10 x Nominal Exchange Rate = 37.50
Nominal Exchange Rate = 37.50 / 10
Nominal Exchange Rate = 3.75 Riyals / USD
The nominal exchange rate is 3.75 Riyals for every $1.

The following data are for Paso Robles Company for the year ended 2009 December 31: Costs: Direct material $ 90,000 Direct labor 130,000 Manufacturing overhead: Variable 45,000 Fixed 90,000 Sales commissions (variable) 25,000 Sales salaries (fixed) 20,000 Administrative expenses (fixed) 35,000 Selling price per unit $ 10 Units produced and sold 60,000 Assume direct materials and direct labor are variable costs. Prepare a contribution margin income statement and a traditional income statement.
Answer:
Net operating income= 165,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
We need to make a contribution format income statement.
First, we will calculate the total variable cost:
Direct material= 90,000
Direct labor= 130,000
Variable overhead= 45,000
Sales commissions (variable)= 25,000
Total variable cost= 290,000
Contribution margin income statement:
Sales= 60,000*10= 600,000
Total variable cost= (290,000)
Total contribution margin= 310,000
Fixed overhead= (90,000)
Sales salaries (fixed)= (20,000)
Administrative expenses (fixed)= (35,000)
Net operating income= 165,000
You are working at a practice that has a very busy daily schedule and needs to standardize the times when statements are handled and payments are due. What type of billing practice should use?
Answer: Cycle Billing
Explanation:
Cycle billing refers to a billing practice where the individual customer is billed on a certain schedule based on the day you started paying or the day the contract kicked in. For instance, your cellular network provider billing you on the same day every month.
This ensures that not all customers are billed on the same day which will reduce the workload at the practice which already has a busy schedule. Rather with customers being billed on different days, the workload decreases.
Also it will then be known for certain which dates one can expect payments as well as when statements will be handled.
intext:"The adjusting entry at the end of an accounting period to record the unpaid salaries of employees for work provided is"
Answer:
A debit to Salaries Expense and a credit to the Salaries Payable Account.
Explanation:
This adjusting entry brings the salary expense account to its accrued balance in line with the accrual concept and matching principle of generally accepted accounting principles. These state that expenses and revenues should not reflect only the cash basis but the accrual basis, whereby unpaid or prepaid expenses, deferred or unpaid revenues that relate to the accounting period are brought into consideration.

Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a 30-year, 6 percent semiannual bond three years ago. The bond currently sells for 93 percent of its face value. The company’s tax rate is 22 percent. a. What is the pretax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What is the aftertax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
a. What is the pretax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
6.46%b. What is the aftertax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
5.04%Explanation:
we must first determine the bond's yield to maturity:
YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2] = {30 + [(1,000 - 930)/60]} / [(1,000 + 930)/2] = 31.17 / 965 = 3.23% x 2 = 6.46%
after tax cost of debt = 6.46% x (1 - tax rate) = 6.46% x (1 - 22%) = 6.46% x 78% = 5.04%
Johnson Industries manufactures a popular interactive stuffed animal for children that requires four computer chips inside each toy. The company pays $ 3 for each computer chip. To help to guard against stockouts of the computer chip, Johnson Industries has a policy that states that the ending inventory of computer chips should be at least 25% of the following month's production needs. The production schedule for the first four months of the year is as follows:

High-Low Method Ziegler Inc. has decided to use the high-low method to estimate the total cost and the fixed and variable cost components of the total cost. The data for various levels of production are as follows: Units Produced Total Costs 80,000 $25,100,000 92,000 27,206,000 120,000 32,120,000 a. Determine the variable cost per unit a
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $175.5
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units Produced Total Costs
80,000 $25,100,000
92,000 $27,206,000
120,000 $32,120,000
To calculate the variable cost per unit under the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (32,120,000 - 25,100,000) / (120,000 - 80,000)
Variable cost per unit= 7,020,000 / 40,000
Variable cost per unit= $175.5

What is Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a book value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) What is Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a book value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) What is Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a market value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) What is Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a market value basis?
Answer:
a. Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a book value basis is 24%.
b. Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a book value basis is 76%.
c. Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a market value basis is 80%.
d. Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a market value basis is 20%.
Explanation:
a. What is Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a book value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
Equity book value = Equity book value per share * Number of shares = 11,600,000 * $5 = $58,000,000
Debt book value = Debt face value = First bond face value + Second face value = $99,000,000 + $81,200,000 = $180,200,000
Total book value = $58,000,000 + $180,200,000 = $238,200,000
Book value weight of equity = Equity book value / Total book value = $58,000,000 / $238,200,000 = 0.24, or 24%
Therefore, Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a book value basis is 24%.
b. What is Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a book value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
From part a, we have:
Debt book value = $180,200,000
Total book value = $238,200,000
Therefore, we have:
Book value weight of debt = Debt book value / Total book value = $180,200,000 / $238,200,000 = 0.76, or 76%
Therefore, Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a book value basis is 76%.
c. What is Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a market value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
Equity market value = Current share price * Number of shares = $59 * 11,600,000 = $684,400,000
Debt market value = Bond price quote * Par value of the bond
Debt market value = First bond market value + Second bond market value = (92% * $99,000,000) + (95.5% * $81,200,000) = $168,626,000
Total market value = Equity market value + Debt market value = $684,400,000 + $168,626,000 = $853,026,000
Market value weight of equity = Equity market value / Total market value = $684,400,000 / $853,026,000 = 0.80, or 80%
Therefore, Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a market value basis is 80%.
d. What is Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a market value basis?
From part c, we have:
Debt market value = $168,626,000
Total market value = $853,026,000
Market value weight of debt = Debt market value / Total market value = $168,626,000 / $853,026,000 = 0.20, or 20%.
Therefore, Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a market value basis is 20%.
During lunch time, customers arrive at a postal office at a rate of lambda equals 36 per hour. The interarrival time of the arrival process can be approximated with an exponential distribution. Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of mu equals 45 per hour. The service time for the customers can also be approximated with an exponential distribution. For each of the following questions, show your work and use the right notation. Determine the utilization factor.
a. po = 4/5
b. po = 5/4
c. po = 1/5
d. po = 1/9
e. none of these
Answer:
a. po = 4/5
Explanation:
Customer arrives at the rate of λ equal 36 per hour
Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of μ equals 45 per hour
λ = 36 / hour
μ = 45 / hour
P = λ / μ
P= 36 / 45
P= 4/5
Thus, the utilization factor is 4/5
