Answer:
a. materials = 42,780 and conversion costs = 36,840
b. materials = $4.85 and conversion costs = $10.85
c. units transferred out = $568,026 and in process = $39,171
Explanation:
First calculate the number of units completed and transferred out of the Polishing Department.
Units completed and transferred out = 1,580 + 41,200 - 6,600
= 36,180
Calculation of equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs for the month of September
materials
Units completed and transferred out (36,180 × 100%) = 36,180
Units of Ending Work In Process (6,600 × 100%) = 6,600
Total equivalent units of production for materials = 42,780
conversion costs
Units completed and transferred out (36,180 × 100%) = 36,180
Units of Ending Work In Process (6,600 × 10%) = 660
Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs = 36,840
Calculate the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month
Unit costs for materials = Total Cost for materials / Total equivalent units of production for materials
= ( $20,600 + $186,883) / 42,780
= $4.85
Unit costs for conversion costs = Total Cost for conversion costs / Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs
= ( $14,674 + $127,600 + $257,440) / 36,840
= $10.85
Total unit cost = $4.85 + $10.85
= $15.70
Calculate the costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.
Cost units transferred out = Number of Units Transferred out × Total Unit Cost
= 36,180 × $15.70
= $568,026
Cost of Units In Process Calculation :
Material Cost ( 6,600 × $4.85) = $32,010
Conversion Costs ( 660 × $10.85) = $7,161
Total Cost of Units In Process = $39,171
A metal fabricator produces connecting rods with an outer diameter that has a 1 ± .01 inch specification. A machine operator takes several sample measurements over time and determines the sample mean outer diameter to be 1.002 inches with a standard deviation of .003 inch.
a. Calculate the Cp of the process. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
Cp =
b. Calculate the Cpk of the process. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
Cpk =
Answer:
A) 1.111
B) 0.889
Explanation:
given data :
outer diameter of connecting rods = 1 ± 0.01 inch
sample mean outer diameter = 1.002 inches
standard deviation = 0.003 inches
A) Calculating the Cp of the process
mean = 1.002
Standard deviation = 0.003
LSL = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99
USL = 1 + 0.01 = 1.01
[tex]Cp = \frac{USL - LSL}{6 * STANDARD DEVIATION}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1.01-0.99}{6*0.003}[/tex] = 1.111
B) calculate Cpk
mean = 1.002, LSL = 0.99, USL = 1.01 , deviation = 0.003
[tex]Cpk = min[\frac{mean-LSL}{3* deviation} , \frac{USL- mean}{3*deviation} ][/tex]
= min [(0.012/0.009) , (0.008/0.009) ]
= min [ 1.333, 0.889 ]
hence Cpk = 0.889

Question:
Exodus Limousine Company has $1,000 par value bonds outstanding at 15 percent interest. The bonds will mature in 30 years. Use Appendix B and Appendix D for an approximate answer but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods. Compute the current price of the bonds if the percent yield to maturity is 10%
Note the tutor added 10% as the yield
Answer:
Price of bond= $1,471.35
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV) discounted at the yield rate
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of bond Exodus Limousine Company can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payments
PV = A × (1+r)^(-n)/r
A-annul interest payment:
= 15% × 1,000 = 150
r-Annual yield = 10%
n-Maturity period = 30
PV of interest payment:
=150× (1- (1+0.1)^(-30)/0.1= 1,414.037
Step 2
PV of Redemption Value
= 1000 × (1.1)^(-30) = 57.308
Step 3
Price of bond
=1,414.037 + 57.308 = 1,471.345
Price of bond= $1,471.345
The following account balances were extracted from the accounting records of Thomas Corporation at the end of the year:
Accounts Receivable $1,100,000
Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (Credit) $37,000
Uncollectible-Account Expense $63,000
What is the net realizable value of the accounts receivable?
A. $1,137,000
B. $1,063,000
C. $1,100,000
D. $1,163,000
Answer: $1,063,000
Explanation:
Net realizable value is the value of an asset that a company will get when the asset is sold minus the cost that came with the asset sales.
The net realizable value of the accounts receivable will be the accounts receivable of $1,100,000 minus the allowance for uncollectible accounts which was given as $37,000.
= $1,100,000 - $37,000
= $1,063,000
Logan and Johnathan exchange land, and the exchange qualifies as like kind under § 1031. Because Logan's land (adjusted basis of $193,000) is worth $231,600 and Johnathan's land has a fair market value of $183,350, Johnathan also gives Logan cash of $48,250. a. Logan's recognized gain is $ . b. Assume that Johnathan's land is worth $208,440 and he gives Logan $23,160 cash. Logan's recognized gain is $ .
Answer:
a. Logan's recognized gain is $38,600
b. Logan's recognized gain is $23,160
Explanation:
a. If the worth of the land for Jonathan is $183,350, then the gain recognized by Logan would be;
the lower of the realized gain between the amount realized of $231,600 - adjusted basis of $193,000 = $38,600
or the fair market worth of the received boot i.e $48,250.
Therefore, Logan's recognized gain is $38,600
b. Suppose Jonathan's land is worth, $208,440, then we can calculate Logan's recognized gain to be ;
the lower of the realized gain I.e amount realized of $231,600 - adjusted basis $193,00 = $38,600
or the fair market value of the received boot I.e $23,160 .
Therefore, Logan's recognized gain is $23,160
Zelda Partnership holds cash of $30,000 and inventory worth $60,000 (basis equals $42,000). Zelda makes a $30,000 cash liquidating distribution to Link, a one-third partner with an outside basis of $24,000. How much gain or loss, if any, does Link recognize
Answer:
6,000 ordinary gain
Explanation:
The computation of gain or loss is shown below:-
Given that
Worth of an inventory = $60,000
Basic inventory = $42,000
Now if we divide this two by each other so the percentage would be
= $60,000 ÷ $42,000 i.e to be greater than the 120% and it is said that the one third would be considered of $18,000
The $18,000 come from
= $42,000 - $24,000
= $18,000
Now its one third is $6,000 and the same is to be treated as ordinary gain

Suppose that borrowing is restricted so that the zero-beta version of the CAPM holds. The expected return on the market portfolio is 17%, and on the zero-beta portfolio it is 8%. What is the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6?
Answer:
10.4%
Explanation:
The computation of expected return on a portfolio is shown below:-
Expected return = Risk Free return + 5%Beta ( Market Return - Risk Free return)
= 5% + 0.60 × (17% - 8%)
= 5% + 5.4%
= 10.4%
Therefore for computing the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6 we simply applied the above formula.
The market return less risk free return is known as market risk premium
A state has strict laws stating that all employees, including part-time workers, must be compensated with employer-provided health benefits. Which of the following could result from this legislation?
1. More workers will be hired "informally" and be paid surreptitiously in cash.
2. Wages will decrease.
3. Unemployment will increase.
4. Any of the above could result from the legislation.
Answer: Any of the above could result from the legislation
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a state has strict laws stating that all employees, including part-time workers, must be compensated with employer-provided health benefits.
The likely effect of this law is that there will be a reduction on wages as employer's will try as much as possible to reducce cost incurred due to the health related compensation. Also, unemployment will increase and more workers will be hired "informally" and be paid surreptitiously in cash. This is because the cost of the employers will increase and they may need to lay some workers off.

Wilson Publishing Company produces books for the retail market. Demand for a current book is expected to occur at a constant annual rate of 6,900 copies. The cost of one copy of the book is $13. The holding cost is based on an 15% annual rate, and production setup costs are $155 per setup. The equipment on which the book is produced has an annual production volume of 21,500 copies. Wilson has 250 working days per year, and the lead time for a production run is 15 days. Use the production lot size model to compute the following values:
a. Minimum cost production lot size
b. Number of production runs per year
c. Cycle time
d. Length of a production run
e. Maximum inventory
f. Total annual cost
g. Reorder point
Answer:
(a) 863.07 copies
(b) 7.99 runs per year
(c) 31.27 days
(d) 10.04 days
(e) 586.08 copies
(f) $1,810.61
(g) 414 copies
Explanation:
Given that ;
Annual demand (D) = 6,900 copies
Cost of the book (C) = $13
Holding cost (H) = 15% of cost of book
= 15% × $13
= $1.95
Set up cost (S) = $155
Annual production volume= 21,500 copies
Number of working days = 250
Lead time(L)= 15
Daily demand (d) = Annual demand ÷ Number of working days
= 6,900 ÷ 250
= 27.6 copies
Daily production (P) = Annual production ÷ Number of working days
= 21,500 ÷ 250
= 86 copies
(a) Minimum cost of production lot size
Q = √ 2×D×S/H × (1-d/p)
Q = √2×6,900×155/1.95 × (1-27.6/86)
Q = 863.07 copies
(b) Number of production runs
= Annual demand (D) ÷ Production quantity (Q)
= 6,900 ÷ 863.07
= 7.99 runs per year
(c) Cycle time = Production quantity (Q) ÷ Daily demand (D)
= 863.07 ÷ 27.6
= 31.27 days
(d) Length of a production run = Production quantity (Q) ÷ Daily production (P)
= 863.07 ÷ 86
= 10.04 days
(e) Maximum inventory (IMAX)
= Q × (1-d÷p)
= 863.07 × (1-27.6÷86)
= 586.08 copies.
(f) Total annual cost
= Annual holding cost + Annual set up cost
= [(Q÷2) × H × (1-d÷p)] + [(D÷Q) × S]
= [(863.07÷2)×1.95×(1-27.6÷86)] + [(6,900÷863.07)×155]
= 571.43 + 1,239.18
= $1,810.61
(g) Reorder point
= Daily demand × lead time
= 27.6 × 15
= 414 copies
The US Public Debt was $18.2 trillion in 2015. This was up from $16.4 trillion in 2012. In 2015, Foreign ownership was 34% of that total, or $6.1 trillion. Of this $6.1 trillion, China held 20%, Japan 18%, and oil exporting nations 5%.
1) How does the fact that 34% (and increasing) of the debt is held by foreigners make you feel?
2) What are potential risks or pitfalls with foreigners owning an increasing amount of the US Debt?
3) How concerned should we feel?
Answer:
1) The fact that 34% and increasing of the debt of The US is held by Foreigners is worrisome
2) some of the pitfalls to this increasing debts owned by Foreigners includes : partial loss of the country sovereignty, devaluation of the dollar and difficulties in meeting repayment conditions
3 ) we as a Nation should feel very concerned and sort for other means of funding instead of accumulating foreign public debts .
Explanation:
Total debt owed in 2015 = $18.2 trillion
Total debt owed in 2012 = $ 16.4 trillion
increase in debt = $1.8 trillion percentage increase = 1.8 / 16.4 * 100 = 10.98%
1) The fact that 34% of the debt of The US is held by Foreigners is worrisome
2) some of the pitfalls to this increasing debts owned by Foreigners includes : partial loss of the country sovereignty, devaluation of the dollar and difficulties in meeting repayment conditions
3 ) we as a Nation should feel very concerned and sort for other means of funding instead of accumulating foreign public debts .
BPO Services is in the business of digitizing information from forms that are filled out by hand. In 2006, a big client gave BPO a distribution of the forms that it digitized in house last year, and BPO estimated how much it would cost to digitize each form. Form Type Mix of Forms Form Cost A 0.5 $3.75 B 0.5 $1.25 The expected cost of digitizing a form is $ . Suppose the client and BPO agree to a deal, whereby the client pays BPO to digitize forms. The price of each form processed is equal to the expected cost of the form that you calculated in the previous part of the problem. Suppose that after the agreement, the client sends only forms of type A. The expected digitization cost per form of the forms sent by the client is $ . This leads to an expected loss of $ per form for BPO. (Hint: Do not round your answers. Enter the loss as a positive number.)
Answer:
BPO Servicesa. The expected cost of digitizing a form is $2.50
b. The expected digitization cost per form of the forms sent by the client is $3.75, without a mix of forms.
c. This leads to an expected loss of $1.25 per form for BPO.
Explanation:
1. Data:
Form Type Mix of Forms Form Cost
A 0.5 $3.75
B 0.5 $1.25
b. Calculation of Expected Cost of digitizing a form:
Form Type Mix of Forms Form Cost Expected Cost
A 0.5 $3.75 $1.875 (0.5 * $3.75)
B 0.5 $1.25 $0.625 (0.5 * $1.25)
Total expected costs $2.50
c. Calculation of Expected cost of Form actually sent by Client without a mix of forms:
A 01 $3.75 $3.75 (1 * $3.75)
Total expected costs $3.75
d. Calculation of Expected Loss:
Expected Price = $2.50
Expected cost = $3.75
Expected loss = $1.25
e. The expected value (cost, price, or gain or loss) from the form digitization is the sum of all possible values from the mix of forms, each multiplied by the probability of its occurrence.
However, the debt issues also raises the probability of bankruptcy. You company has a 30% chance of going bankrupt after 3 years. If it does go bankrupt, it will incur bankrupt costs of $200,000. Again, the discount rate is 10%. What is the expected cost of bankruptcy at the end of the third year? And what is the present value of this cost as of today? (Hint: if there is a 30%t chance of costing shareholders $200,000, what is the expected cost? And, it could only happen at the end of the third year.)
Answer:
Expected Cost = $60,000
Present Value of Expected Cost = $45,079
Explanation:
The chance that the bankruptcy will happen is 30% and the cost it will incur if it happens is $200,000. The expected cost is the probability of the event happening multiplied by the cost of the event happening.
Expected Cost = 200,000 * 0.3
= $60,000
The present value of this cost assuming a discount rate of 10% is;
= [tex]\frac{60,000}{(1 + 0.10)^{3} }[/tex]
= $45,078.89
= $45,079
Raggs, Ltd. a clothing firm, determines that in order to sell x suits, the price per suit must be pequals180 minus 0.5 x. It also determines that the total cost of producing x suits is given by Upper C (x )equals5000 plus 0.75 x squared. a) Find the total revenue, Upper R (x ). b) Find the total profit, Upper P (x ). c) How many suits must the company produce and sell in order to maximize profit? d) What is the maximum profit? e) What price per suit must be charged in order to maximize profit?
Answer:
Explanation:
(a) R(x) = x(150 - 0.75x) => 150x - 0.75x²
(b) P(x) = R(x) - C(x) => 150x - 0.75x² - (2000 + 0.75x²)
so, P(x) = 150x - 2000 - 1.5x²
(c) Now, P '(x) = 150 - 3x = 0....at maximum
i.e. when x = 50 suits
(d) P(50) = 150(50) - 2000 - 1.5(50)²
=> 7500 - 2000 - 3750
i.e. £1750
(e) price --> 150 - 0.75(50) => 150 - 37.5
Hence, price per suit is £112.50 in order to maximise profits.
Given the following cash flows for a capital project, calculate its payback period and discounted payback period. The required rate of return is 8 percent.
Year
0 1 2 3 4 5
Glass Flows $51100 $13150 $16050 $23900 $12400 $3050
The discounted payback period is:________.
a. 0.39 year longer than the payback period.
b. 0.64 year longer than the payback period.
c. 0.76 years longer than the payback period.
d. 0.25 years longer than the payback period.
Answer:
c. 0.76 years longer than the payback period.
Explanation:
Payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.
the amounted invested in the project = $-51100
In year 1, the amount recovered = $-51,100 + $13150 = $-37,950
In year 2, the amount recovered = $-37,950 + $16050 = $-21,900
In year 3, the amount recovered = $-21,900 + $23900 = $2000
the amount invested is recovered in 2 + 21,900 / 23900 = 2.92 years
Discounted payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.
discounted cash flows
$13150 / 1.08 = $12,175.93
$16050 / 1.08^2 = $13,760.29
$23900 / 1.08^3 = $18972.59

If a company produces the same number of units per period over an asset's useful life, each period's depreciation expense using the straight-line method will be the same as that recorded using the units-of-production method.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
The answer is true.
Explanation:
Straight-line method of depreciation spreads the depreciation cost evenly over the life of the asset. The amount of depreciation is the same year in year out. It can be calculated as follows:
(Cost of the asset - residual value) ÷ number of useful life of the asset.
While units-of-production method is almost the same as the straight-line method. It is calculated as:
(Cost of the asset - residual value) ÷ expected number of units of production throughout the useful life of the asset.
Since the number of units of production will be same throughout the life span of the asset, the depreciation expense will also be the same

5.The real risk-free rate of interest is 2%. Inflation is expected to be 3.5% the next 2 years and 6% during the next 3 years after that. Assume that the maturity risk premium is zero. What is the yield on 3-year Treasury securities
Answer:
17.50%
Explanation:
The computation of the yield on 3 year treasury securities is shown below:
The Yield on 3 year is
= Risk free rate of return + Inflation premium + Market risk premium
= 2% + (3.5% + 6% + 6%) ÷ 3 years + 0
= 2% + 15.5% + 0
= 17.50%
Hence, the yield on 3 years is 17.50% by applying the above formulas by considering the given information

A "flat tax" on personal income, in which the same tax rate is applied to every dollar of income earned by each taxpayer, is an example of
Answer:
proportional tax
Explanation:
The description stated in the question is an example of a proportional tax. Like mentioned, this is a type of income tax system that enforces the same percentage tax rate to every single individual regardless of their overall income. This applies to low, middle, and high-income taxpayers. Therefore, if a low-income tax individual is charged 10% then the middle and high-income taxpayers will also be charged 10%.
Braynerd Chemicals sells 40 million shares of stock in an SEO—25 million being primary shares issued by the company and 15 million being secondary shares sold by investors in the company. At the time of the sale, Braynerd's stock was selling at $21.00 per share. If the underwriter charges 5% of the gross proceeds as a fee, how much money was raised in the sale?
Answer: $498.75 million
Explanation:
Of the 40 million shares sold by Braynerd Chemicals, 15 million were sold as secondary shares by investors in the company. The proceeds from these 15 million will therefore not go to the company but to the investors so they are not counted.
Gross total money raised will be;
= 25 million * 21.00
= $525 million
The Underwriter charges 5% of the gross amount as a fee so the Net amount raised will be;
Net Total = 525 * ( 1 - 5%)
Net Total = $498.75 million
What is the forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) based on the following information: Capital asset turnover ratio: 2.5 Forecasted revenues: $120 Forecasted costs of goods sold: $80
Answer:
Forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) is $48.
Explanation:
First note that Capital asset is the same thing as property, plan and equipment (PP&E).
In order to calculate this, we therefore use the formula for calculating the Capital asset turnover ratio which is the ratio of forecasted revenues to forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) as follows:
Capital asset turnover = Forecasted revenues / Forecasted value of PP&E
Substituting for the values in the question into the equation above and solve for Forecasted value of PP&E, we have:
2.5 = 120 / Forecasted value of PP&E
Forecasted value of PP&E = 120 / 2.5 = $48
Therefore, the forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) is $48.
The forecasted value of property, plan and equipment for the period for the statement quoted above is $48. The calculations can be implied by using the values given in the formula.
The value of the property, plan and equipment is important for estimating the current, short run and long run capital requirements of the firm for a given period using the ratios.
The values given to us are as the capital assets turnover ratio is 2.5 and the forecasted costs of goods sold is $80 whereas the forecasted revenues of the firm is $120.The calculation of estimated property, plan and equipment of a firm can be calculated by using the formula as given below by putting the available values.[tex]\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \dfrac {Forecasted\ Revenues}{Capital\ Assets\ Turnover\ Ratio}\\\\\\\\\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \dfrac {\$120}{2.5}[/tex]We get the forecasted PP&E of the firm as below, [tex]\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \$48[/tex]Therefore the value obtained for the forecasted PP&E of the firm is $48.Hence, the correct statement of the forecasted PP&E of the firm is $48 when the forecasted revenues are $120 and the assets turnover ratio stands at 2.5.

If a check correctly written and paid by the bank for $936 is incorrectly recorded in the company's books for $963, how should this error be treated on the bank reconciliation
Answer:
The difference of $27 will be added in the bank reconciliation statement.
Explanation:
With regards to the above information,
Since bank paid $936 but was recorded as $963 in the company's books.
The difference would therefore be ;
= $963 - $936
