At the beginning of the period, the Cutting Department budgeted direct labor of $139,000, direct materials of $152,000 and fixed factory overhead of $13,000 for 7,700 hours of production. The department actually completed 11,700 hours of production. What is the appropriate total budget for the department, assuming it uses flexible budgeting
Answer:
$461,920
Explanation:
The computation of the appropriate total budget for the department is shown below:-
Total cost = Direct labor + Direct material + Fixed Factory overhead
= $139,000 + $152,000 + $13,000
= $304,000
the cost of 1 hr of production = $304,000 ÷ 7,700
= $39.48
Therefore in order to extend it to 11,700 we need 4,000 more hrs of production = 4,000 × $39.48
= $157,920
Total budget for the department = $304,000 + $157,920
= $461,920
D'Anconia Copper is an all-equity firm with 60 million shares outstanding, which are currently trading at $20 per share. Last month, d'Anconia announced that it will change its capital structure by issuing $300 million in debt. The $200 million raised by this issue, plus another $200 million in cash that d'Anconia already has, will be used to repurchase existing shares of stock. Assume that capital markets are perfect.
1. At the conclusion of this transaction, what will be the value of a share of Anconia Copper will be closest to:
a. $18.33
b. $20.00
c. $25.00
d. $27.50
2. Suppose you are a shareholder in d'Anconia Copper holding 300 shares, and you disagree with the decision to lever the firm. You can undo the effect of this decision by:
a. borrowing $2,000 and buying 100 shares of stock.
b. selling 100 shares of stock and lending $2,000.
c. borrowing $1,200 and buying 60 shares of stock.
d. selling 60 shares of stock and lending $1,200
Answer:
20m
Explanation:
To calculate the number of outstanding shares we need to calculate market capitalization value first. After calculating market capitalization value we are going to divide the difference in market capitalization value by share price.
DATA
share price = $20
Debt involved = 200m
Cash = 200m
Solution
Number of outstanding shares (after the transaction of shares repurchase) = Difference in market capitalization / Per share price.
Number of outstanding shares = (1200m - 800m) / 20
Number of outstanding shares = 400m / 20
Number of outstanding shares = 20m
Working
Market capitalization (after the repurchase of existing shares) = Shareholders' funds - Debt involved - Cash.
Market capitalization = (60m * 20) - 200m- 200m.
Market capitalization = 1200m - 200m - 200m
Market capitalization = $800m.

The Devon Motor Company produces automobiles. On April 1st the company had no beginning inventories and it purchased 7,390 batteries at a cost of $145 per battery. It withdrew 6,800 batteries from the storeroom during the month. Of these, 100 were used to replace batteries in cars being used by the company’s traveling sales staff. The remaining 6,700 batteries withdrawn from the storeroom were placed in cars being produced by the company. Of the cars in production during April, 90 percent were completed and transferred from work in process to finished goods. Of the cars completed during the month, 30 percent were unsold at April 30th.
1. Determine the cost of batteries that would appear in eachof the following accounts at April 30.
a. raw materials
b. work in process
c. finished goods
d. cost of goods sold
e. selling expanse
2. Specify whether each of the above accounts would appear onthe balance sheet or on the income statement at April 30.
Answer:
1. a. Raw Materials
Materials left in storeroom
= (7,390 - 6,800) * $145
= $85,550
b. Work in Process
90% were completed so 10% was left. 100 batteries were removed from the 6,800 batteries.
= 10% * (6,700 * 145)
= $97,150
c. Finished goods
Unsold goods are 30%.
= 6,700 * 90% * 30% * 145
= $262,305
d. Cost of goods sold
Sold goods were therefore 70%
= 6,700 * 90% * 70% * 145
= $612,045
e. Selling expense
= 100 batteries used in sales staff cars * 145
= $14,500

CS and APIC 520,000 100,000
Total Stockholder's Equity, Dec 31 $790,000 210,000
case a:
retained earnings = previous balance + net income - dividends
net income = $270,000 - $300,000 + $70,000 = $40,000
expenses = revenue - net income = $200,000 - $40,000 = $160,000
total stockholders' equity = CS + APIC + retained earnings = $520,000 + $270,000 = $790,000
total assets = total equity + total liabilities = $790,000 + $140,000 = $930,000
noncurrent liabilities = total liabilities - current liabilities = $140,000 - $40,000 = $100,000
noncurrent assets = total assets - current assets = $790,000 - $80,000 = $710,000
case b:
retained earnings = total equity - CS and APIC = $210,000 - $100,000 = $110,000
net income = $110,000 - $100,000 + $30,000 = $40,000
revenue = net income + expenses = $40,000 + $70,000 = $110,000
current assets = total assets - noncurrent assets = $410,000 - $180,000 = $230,000
total liabilities = total assets - equity = $410,000 - $210,000 = $200,000
noncurrent liabilities = total liabilities - current liabilities = $200,000 - $60,000 = $140,000
The modern business environment has been shaped by political and economic events. Rapid growth and change in many areas have been typical in the past two or three decades. In the midst of growth and change, some trends have emerged as the drivers of change. Political and economic trends have different dynamics.
The international business manager needs a clear vision and understanding of world events and the markets and countries in which he or she operates. Putting current events into the historical context provides the manager with the ability to distinguish anomalies from trend events. The same vision and understanding offer the manager insights into timing and opportunity.
The transformation of the political economy of the world's nations has been driven by a wave of democratic revolutions and the strong move toward a more free market economic model. International business managers must assess the attractiveness of specific locations. Countries with democratic regimes, market-based economic policies, and strong protection of property rights are more likely to attain a high and sustained growth rate. These countries are attractive locations for international business.

Bacrometer, Inc., makes part no. 566 on one of its production lines. Each month Bacrometer makes 6,000 of part no. 566 at a variable cost of $4 per part. Bacrometer has been provided a bid for part no. 566 from another manufacturer that will make the part for $5 per part. Bacrometer knows the production line could be rented to another manufacturer for $8,000 per month. Fixed costs associated with the production line will remain unchanged regardless of the company's decision.
a. Compute the incremental cost to make with the incremental cost to buy. Remember the incremental cost to make includes the opportunity cost of the foregone rent revenue.b. Should Bacrometer continue to make part no. 566?
Answer:
A. Incremental cost to make $32,000
Incremental cost to buy $30,000
B. Bacrometer should NOT continue to make part no. 566
Explanation:
a. Computation for the incremental cost to make with the incremental cost to buy.
Calculation for Incremental cost to make
Using this formula
Incremental cost to make = Opportunity cost + Variable cost of making
Let plug in the formula
Incremental cost to make= $8,000 + (6,000 x $4)
Incremental cost to make=$8,000+$24,000
Incremental cost to make = $32,000
Therefore Incremental cost to make is $32,000
Calculation for Incremental cost to buy using this formula
Incremental cost to buy = Purchase price per unit x Number of units purchased
Let plug in the formula
Incremental cost to buy= $5 x 6,000
Incremental cost to buy= $30,000
Therefore Incremental cost to buy is $30,000
b. Based on the above calculation Bacrometer should NOT continue to make part no. 566 reason been that the incremental cost to make which has the amount of $32,000 is higher than the incremental cost to buy which has the amount of $30,000.
Auto Parts, Inc. is medium-sized company that manufactures auto parts in Buffalo, New York. The company currently loses $40,000 per month. The owner of the company is evaluating whether she should shut down the factory. She thinks that the factory should continue to operate until the economic environment improves and buyer for the factory can be identified. The logic of the owner is that her company has already invested millions of dollars in the factory over the years. The monthly fixed costs for the factory are $30,000. The CEO of Auto Parts, Inc. thinks the factory should be shut down because most the monthly fixed costs ($30,000/month) are sunk costs.
Do you agree with the owner or the CEO?
Answer:
I agree with the owner of the company
Explanation:
The overall losses are $40,000 per month and the fixed costs are $30,000 per month.
The company should stop production because the losses are over fixed cost and this tells us that the company is not even able to recover the variable costs and because the variable costs are not at least recovered, there would be no point for the company to continue in the business as it would keep on making a loss and the logic might be wrong regarding sunk costs but the decision must be taken in favour where production should be stopped.

Consider the subschema of a receiving clerk. The receiving clerk needs sufficient rights in her logical view to perform her duties but not be given rights that she does not need. Within her duties, she validates that items being received were ordered from a supplier before she accepts shipments from that supplier. To do so she must be able to see purchases from each supplier. Determine which rights (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) the receiving clerk should have for data corresponding to sales, cash receipts, purchases, and suppliers.
Answer:
In this project question we have to consider sub schema of a receiving clerk. As per the information provided in the case study the receiving clerk needs sufficient rights in her logical view to perform her duties but not given rights that she does not need. On the basis of the information given in the question right to create the receiving clerk should have for data corresponding to sales cash receipts, purchase, and suppliers.

In what ways do goals and objectives help managers control various processes within an organization? How do specific and measurable goals affect employees and promote organizational performance? Provide an example from your own experience of when a specific goal or objective provided beneficial control over a process. Explain what the beneficial control was and how did it positively impact organizational performance.
Textbook: Principles of Management-v.1.1
Answer:
In what ways do goals and objectives help managers control various processes within an organization?
Goals establish the basis of the corporate strategy. Without clear goals, managers cannot devise and implement a corporate strategy, and without a corporate strategy, the firm does not have a clear path of action.
As we can see, goals are very important for an organization because they determine what the company should achieve, and what actions and policies the company should implement in order to achieve it.
How do specific and measurable goals affect employees and promote organizational performance?
Employees become motivated because they can actually see what their performance is like, and how it can be improved upon in case its not meeting the organizational performance standards.
However, managers should be careful when setting these measurable goals, and should also be flexible: if an employee does not meet these goals in his first attempt, they should try to understand why, and work with the employee so that he or she can improve their performance.
Specific and measurable goals and objectives can allow managers to make more practical decisions and better control over employees to achieve goals. Practical decisions mean that the goals are realistic, and the goals are time-based and measurable.
Furthermore, goals and objectives can offer a form of control as they provide communication opportunities about how effectively or poorly the company is executing its plans.
Finally, managers can emphasize positive practices in the organization to employees because they understand what to do, what must be achieved, and when to achieve it.
To illustrate how a specific goal or objective provides useful control over a process, I will explain through my experience as a tour guide. Our goal can be as simple as making the trip enjoyable. So I have to set a specific and observable objective for my members in terms of goal sections. I gave them a checklist to make sure that they had taken everything in their package, such as license, visa, local currency, and that they had to do it by the time they left the house and arrived at the gathering point on time.
As a result, my members know what to do, and we do not have to waste time because something is missing. As I said, I explained the goals for each move to ensure that everything was under control. If I had not arranged a meeting time and place, they would not be sure when or where they can come.

Aubrey Inc. issued $4,000,000 of 10%, 10-year convertible bonds on June 1, 2020, at 98 plus accrued interest. The bonds were dated April 1, 2020, with interest payable April 1 and October 1. Bond discount is amortized semiannually on a straight-line basis. On April 1, 2021, $1,500,000 of these bonds were converted into 30,000 shares of $20 par value common stock. Accrued interest was paid in cash at the time of conversion. Instructions a. Prepare the entry to record the interest expense at October 1, 2020. Assume that accrued interest payable was credited when the bonds were issued. (Round to nearest dollar.) b. Prepare the entry(ies) to record the conversion on April 1, 2021. (Book value method is used.) Assume that the entry to record amortization of the bond discount and interest payment has been made.
Answer:
i will first record the issuance of the bonds:
June 1, 2020, bonds issued at a discount + accrued interests
Dr Cash 3,986,667
Dr Discount on bonds payable 78,667
Dr Interest expense 1,333
Cr Bonds payable 4,000,000
Cr Interest payable 66,667
Accrued interests = $4,000,000 x 10% x 2/12 = $66,667
bond discount = $4,000,000 x 2% = $80,000
amortization per coupon payment = $80,000 / 20 = $4,000
allocated amortization to this issuance = $4,000 x 2/6 = $1,333
a) October 1, 2020, first coupon payment
Dr Interest expense 130,666

Let’s say there is an investment product whose Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is 8%. If this investment product compounds quarterly (that is, four times a year), what will be the Effective Annual Interest Rate (EAR)?
Answer:
Effective annual interest rate= 8.24%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Interest rate= 8% compounded quarterly
First, we need to calculate the nominal quarterly interest rate:
i= 0.08/4= 0.02
Now, the effective annual interest rate:
effective annual interest rate= (1+i)^n - 1
effective annual interest rate= 1.02^4 - 1
effective annual interest rate= 0.824 = 8.24%

In the current year, Nighthawk Corporation, a calendar year C corporation, has $5,080,000 of adjusted taxable income and $152,400 of business interest income. Nighthawk has no floor plan financing interest. The business interest expense for the year is $2,032,000. a. Assume that Nighthawk has average gross receipts for the prior three-year period of $35,200,000. Determine Nighthawk's current-year deduction for business interest. $______ b. Assume that Nighthawk has average gross receipts for the prior three-year period of $19,500,000. Determine Nighthawk's current-year deduction for business interest. $______
Answer:
$1,676,400 $2,032,000.Explanation:
1. Nighthawk deduction for business interest assuming prior three-year period of $35,200,000 average gross receipts
As per the Tax Cuts Act of 2017, Nighthawk can deduct its Business interest income and up to 30% of its taxable income.
= 152,400 + (5,080,000 * 30%)
= $1,676,400
2. Assuming that Nighthawk has average gross receipts for the prior three-year period of $19,500,000, this would put them below the $25 million mark from the Act which means the deduction would be the entire business interest expense of $2,032,000.

Variable manufacturing costs are $150 per unit and fixed manufacturing costs are $75,000. Sales are estimated to be 6,000 units. How much would absorption costing income from operations differ between a plan to produce 6,000 units and a plan to produce 7,500 units?
Answer:
If 7,500 units are produced, income will increase by $2.5 per unit
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Variable manufacturing costs are $150 per unit and fixed manufacturing costs are $75,000.
We need to determine the difference in income if 7,500 units are produced instead of 6,000.
The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.
The difference is in the unitary fixed manufacturing overhead.
For 6,000 units:
unitary fixed manufacturing overhead= 75,000/6,000= $12.5
For 7,500 units:
unitary fixed manufacturing overhead= 75,000/7,500= $10
If 7,500 units are produced, income will increase by $2.5 per unit
