The Ferre Publishing Company has three service departments and two operating departments. Selected data from a recent period on the five departments follow:
Service Departments Operating Departments
Administration Janitorial Maintenance Binding Printing Total
Costs $77,000 $60,000 $39,000 $255,000 $486,000 $917,000
Number of employees 140 100 400 1,000 500 2,140
Square feet of space occupied 4,500 18,000 15,000 30,000 105,000 172,500
Hours of press time 18,000 38,000 56,000
The company allocates service department costs by the step-down method in the following order: Administration (number of employees), Janitorial (space occupied), and Maintenance (hours of press time).
Required: Assuming that the company uses the direct method rather than the step-down method to allocate service department costs, few much cost would fee assigned to each operating department?
Answer:
The Ferre Publishing Company

Hours of press time 18,000 38,000 56,000
Allocation bases:
Administration (number of employees),
Janitorial (space occupied)
Maintenance (hours of press time).
Allocation rate:
Administration = $77,000/1,500 = $51.33
Janitorial = $60,000/135,000 = $0.44
Maintenance = $39,000/56,000 = $0.696
The direct method of allocating costs is relatively straightforward. It only involves the direct allocation of service departments' cost to the operating departments. Service departments' costs are not allocated to any service department, but they are allocated directly to the operating activities.

In each of the following cases, calculate the accounting break-even and the cash break-even points. Ignore any tax effects in calculating the cash break-even. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Case Unit Price Unit Variable Cost Fixed Costs Depreciation
1 $3,190 $2,555 $8,080,000 $2,860,000
2 116 69 48,000 290,000
3 25 6 3,100 840
Answer:
Accounting Breakeven = (Fixed Costs + Depreciation)/ ( Sales price - Variable cost)
Cash Breakeven = Fixed Costs / ( Sales price - Variable cost)
1.
Accounting Breakeven = (8,080,000 + 2,860,000) / (3,190 - 2,555) = 17,228.34
Cash Breakeven = 8,080,000/ (3,190 - 2,555) = 12,724.41
2. Accounting Breakeven = (48,000 + 290,000) / ( 116 - 69) = 7,191.49
Cash breakeven = 48,000/ (116 - 69) = 1,021.28
3. Accounting breakeven = (3,100 + 840) / (25 - 6) = 207.37
Cash breakeven = 3,100/(25 - 6) = 163.16

Drake Appliance Company, an accrual basis taxpayer, sells home appliances and service contracts. Determine the effect of each of the following transactions on the company's 2020 gross income assuming that the company uses any available options to defer its taxes.
a. In December 2019. the company received a $1,200 advance payment from a customer for an appliance that Drake special ordered from the manufacturer. The appliance did not arrive from the manufacturer until January 2019, and Drake immediately delivered it to the customer. The sale was reported in 20IS for financial accounting purposes.
b. In October 2019. the company sold a 6-month service contract for $240. The company also sold a 36-month service contract for $1,260 in July 2019.
Answer:
The correct solution is:
(a) $1200
(b) $330
Explanation:
(a)
The advance payment was issued throughout 2019, but perhaps the items were not shipped in 2019. The products will be shipped in 2020 as well as revenues for financial accounting requirements will be published in 2020. Thus, $1200 would include total sales for 2020.
So,
The $1200 total is reflected in the taxable profits for 2020.
(b)
The service contract, for 6 months will be:
⇒ [tex]Gross \ income=240\times \frac{3}{6}[/tex]
[tex]=120[/tex] ($)
The service contract, for 36 months will be:
⇒ [tex]Gross \ income = 1260\times \frac{6}{36}[/tex]
[tex]=210[/tex] ($)
In 2020, the total gross income included will be:
[tex]=120+210[/tex]
[tex]=330[/tex] ($)
So,
The amount $330 seems to be included throughout 2020 gross income.

(Omit the "$" sign in your response.) Activity Cost Pool J78 W52 Supporting direct labor $ $ Machine processing Machine setups Production orders Shipments Product sustaining Total overhead cost $ $
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of total overhead cost that would be assigned to each of the products is presented with the help of a spreadsheet:-
Here are the formulas from which we can determine the total cost of J78 and W52
For J78
Total cost = Activity rate of J78 × Expected activity of J78
For W52
Total cost = Activity rate of J78 × Expected activity of W52

The Green Giant has a 4 percent profit margin and a 40 percent dividend payout ratio. The total asset turnover is 1.5 times and the equity multiplier is 1.4 times. What is the sustainable rate of growth?
Answer:
sustainable growth rate = 5.04%
Explanation:
the sustainable growth rate = retention rate x return on equity
retention rate = 1 - dividend payout ratio = 1 - 40% = 60%return on equity = profit margin x asset turnover x equity multiplier = 4% x 1.5 x 1.4 = 0.084 = 8.4%sustainable growth rate = 0.6 x 8.4% = 5.04%
the mathematical explanation on how I determined ROE:
equity multiplier = total assets / equity
1.4 equity = total assets
total assets turnover = net sales / total assets
1.5 = net sales / 1.4 equity
2.1 equity = net sales
profit margin = net profit / net sales
net sales = net profit / 0.04
2.1 equity = net profit / 0.04
2.1 x 0.04 = net profit / equity = ROE = 0.084
John Law, a local police officer, is sitting outside an AM/PM around Midnight. He is eating a protein bar and drinking an energy drink when he observed a man walking up to the entrance of the AM/PM. The man then walked away from the entrance and met up with another individual on a street corner while repeatedly walking up and down the same street. The men would periodically peer into the AM/PM window and then talk some more. The men also spoke to a third man whom they eventually followed up the street. The officer believed that the men were "casing" the store for a potential robbery. The officer decided to approach the men for questioning, and given the nature of the behavior the officer decided to perform a quick search of the men before questioning. A quick frisking of one of the men, Jake, produced a concealed weapon and Jake was charged with carrying a concealed weapon, a felony.
Jake, hires a lawyer and fights the charges against him. He believes that his greatest argument is that the officer did not have probably cause to search and seize the firearm. Do you agree or disagree? Within your answer, please discuss whether the search was lawful or unlawful. In other words, did the search violate Jake’s 4th Amendment rights?
Answer:
I agree that, the search was lawful due to the fact that, the police officer has every reason to believe that, a crime was about to take place. The man, Jake looking into the store and walking up and down the street creates the impression of an intent. The search did not violate Jake's 4th Amendment rights.
Explanation:
A retired auto mechanic hopes to open a rustproofing shop. Customers would be local new-car dealers. Two locations are being considered, one in the center of the city and one on the outskirts. The central city location would involve fixed monthly costs of $6,950 and labor, materials, and transportation costs of $30 per car. The outside location would have fixed monthly costs of $4,500 and labor, materials, and transportation costs of $40 per car. Dealer price at either location will be $90 per car.
1. Which location will yield the greatest profit if monthly demand is (1) 200 cars, (2) 300 cars?
2. At what volume of output will the two sites yield the same monthly profit?
Answer:
1.
(1) Profit - Location B = $5500
(2) Profit - Location A = $11050
2.
x = 245 cars
Explanation:
1.
Profit is the difference between the revenue and the total cost. To determine which location will provide greatest profit, we need to solve the equation for profit for both the locations under different demand scenarios as given in the question.
Let Location A be the central city location.Let Location B be the outskirts locations
The profit equation for Location A = 90 * x - (6950 + 30 * x)
The profit equation for Location B = 90 * x - (4500 + 40 * x)
Where x is the monthly demand in number of cars.
Scenario (1) 200 Cars
Profit - Location A = 90 * 200 - (6950 + 30 * 200)
Profit - Location A = $5050
Profit - Location B = 90 * 200 - (4500 + 40 * 200)
Profit - Location B = $5500
Scenario (2) 300 Cars
Profit - Location A = 90 * 300 - (6950 + 30 * 300)
Profit - Location A = $11050
Profit - Location B = 90 * 300 - (4500 + 40 * 300)
Profit - Location B = $10500
2.
To calculate the output/ demand that will produce the same profit under both locations, we need to equate the two profit equations.
90 * x - (6950 + 30 * x) = 90 * x - (4500 + 40 * x)
90x - 30x - 6950 = 90x - 40x - 4500
60x - 6950 = 50x - 4500
60x - 50x = -4500 + 6950
10x = 2450
x = 2450 / 10
x = 245 cars
Grady is a member of a large family and received the following payments this year. For each payment, determine whether the payment constitutes realized income and determine the amount of each payment Grady must include in his gross income. (Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable.)
A gift of $60,000 of Ford Motor Bonds. Grady received the bonds on October 31, and he received $1,800 of semiannual interest from the bonds on December 31.
Answer:
Since Grady received the $60,000 gift, he does not owe any taxes on that transaction. When a gift is made, the receiving party pays no taxes, but the giving party has to pay taxes if it exceeds the $15,000 annual threshold or the $11.4 million lifetime exclusion.
But Grady must include the interests that he earned from the bonds as part of his gross income ($1,800). Interests are taxed as ordinary income.

Which of the following statements about annuities are true? (Select all that apply.) Check All That Apply The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement. The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement. The first cash flow of an ordinary annuity is made on the first day of the agreement.
Answer:
The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement. The last cash flow of an ordinary annuity is made on the last day covered by the agreement.Explanation:
The difference between an Annuity due and an Ordinary annuity is the timing in the period it is paid. Annuity dues are paid in the beginning of the period which means that they accrue more interest because they have the rest of the year to build.
Ordinary annuities on the other hand see their cashflows made on the last day of the period which is why the last cash flow of an ordinary annuity is made on the last day covered by the agreement.
The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement. Thus, option A is appropriate.
The movement of money within and outside of a business is known as cash flow. Cash received represents inflows, while cash spent represents outflows. A financial statement that describes the sources and uses of a company's cash over time is called a cash flow statement.
An annuity's first cash flow is made on the initial day of the contract. An annuity with cash flows or payments that start at the start of the period is said to be due. An annuity in arrears is another name for a due annuity. The cash flows start in years one through five. And at time 0 (right now), the very first cash flow happens.
Thus, option A is correct.

Olivia, Kyle, and Andy formed a partnership in which they share all things equally. Kyle contributed an asset on which there is a liability of $22,500, which was assumed by the partnership. Kyle's AB in the asset he contributed was $16,000 and the FMV of the asset on the date of contribution was $60,000. What is Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution
Answer:
$1,000
Explanation:
Calculation for Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution
Since the Liability of the amount of $22,500 was distributed among the three partners which makes each of one of them to have a liability of
the amount of $7,500 calculated as: ($22,500/3 partners ), that means that Kyle will have a debt relief of the amount of $15,000 calculated as (7,500 * 2 partners)
Hence,
Kyle's outside basis= Asset contributed - Debt relief amount
Kyle's outside basis=16,000 -15,000
Kyle's Outside basis= $1,000
Therefore Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution will be $1,000
Gitano Products operates a job-order costing system and applies overhead cost to jobs on the basis of direct materials used in production (not on the basis of raw materials purchased). Its predetermined overhead rate was based on a cost formula that estimated $800,000 of manufacturing overhead for an estimated allocation base of $500,000 direct material dollars to be used in production. The company has provided the following data for the just completed year:
Purchase of raw materials $510,000
Direct labor cost $90,000
Manufacturing overhead costs:
Indirect labor $170,000
Property taxes $48,000
Depreciation of equipment $260,000
Maintenance $95,000
Insurance $7,000
Rent, building $180,000
Required:
1) Compute the predetermined overhead rate for the year.
2) Compute the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year.
3) Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year. Assume all raw materials are used in production as direct materials.
4) Compute the unadjusted cost of goods sold for the year.
5) Identify the options available for disposing of underapplied or overapplied overhead?
6) Job 215 was started and completed during the year. What price would have been charged to the customer if the job required $8,500 in direct materials and $2,700 in direct labor cost and the company priced its jobs at 25% above the job's cost according to the accounting system?
7) Direct materials made up $24,000 of the $70,000 ending Work in Process inventory balance. Supply the information missing below:
Beginning Ending
Raw Materials $20,000 $80,000
Work in Process $150,000 $70,000
Finished Goods $260,000 $400,000
Answer:
Gitano Products
1. Predetermined overhead rate
= $1.60
2. Overapplied overhead for the year
= $40,000
3. Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year:
Direct raw materials $510,000
Direct labor cost $90,000
Manufacturing overhead costs: $760,000
Cost of Goods Manufactured $1,360,000
4. Unadjusted Cost of Good Sold for the year:
Direct raw materials $510,000
Direct labor cost $90,000
Manufacturing overhead applied $800,000
Cost of Goods Sold $1,400,000
5) The overapplied overhead can be deducted from the adjusted Cost of Goods Sold to arrive at a cost of goods sold that is equal to $1,360,000. If there were inventories, the overapplied overhead can be allocated to the cost of goods sold, finished goods inventory, and work in process.
6) Job 215:
Direct materials $8,500
Direct labor 2,700
Overhead 13,600 ($1.60 * $8,500)
Total cost $24,800
Markup 25% 6,200
Price to customer $31,000
7) Beginning Ending
Raw Materials $20,000 $80,000
Work in Process $150,000 $70,000
Finished Goods $260,000 $400,000
If direct materials made up $24,000 of the $70,000 ending Work in Process inventory balance, then the balance is made up of $7,600 direct labor and $38,400 Overhead. The overhead = $24,000 * $1.60 = $38,400. The direct labor = $70,000 - ($24,000 + 38,400) = $7,600.
Explanation:
Estimated Manufacturing overhead = $800,000
Estimated direct materials = $500,000
Computation of Predetermined overhead rate
= $800,000/$500,000
= $1.60 per direct material
b) Data
Actual Expenses:
Purchase of raw materials $510,000
Direct labor cost $90,000
Manufacturing overhead costs:
Indirect labor $170,000
Property taxes $48,000
Depreciation of
equipment $260,000
Maintenance $95,000
Insurance $7,000
Rent, building $180,000
Total overhead $760,000
Total manufacturing cost $1,360,000
c) Computation of Overapplied overhead:
Estimated overhead minus actual overhead
= $800,000 - $760,000
= $40,000

Profit = $ (95000+185000-1500
- 1,000 + 3,000 - 55,400 + 1,500 )= $226000
items added back to profit are allowed deductions while items deducted are disallowed deductions
Depreciation was added back to profit because method used was in excess of straight line method and so does not reflect true depreciation

Personnel Selection Standards Personnel selection is the method by which companies decide who will or will not be allowed to join the organization. The selection process should be set up so that the organization can identify the individuals who have the knowledge, skills, and abilities to best perform the job. This strategic approach to selection means measuring and confirming the effectiveness of the selection tools that are used. The tools are most effective when measured against these standards: reliability, validity, generalizability, utility, and legality. Review the section in your textbook on "Selection Process." The five standards against which to measure the selection tools used by an organization contribute to their effectiveness. Effective tools, in turn, help ensure an organization selects the best candidates for a particular job. This activity is important because you will review terms related to the selection process and think about to which of the standards they best apply The goal of this activity is to define ways to measure the success of a selection method. Read each scenario, then match it to the correct category it represents. 1. An intelligence test is an example of a measure that should yield similar results each time an individual takes the test.

Answer:
1. An intelligence test is an example of a measure that should yield similar results each time an individual takes the test.
RELIABILITY: means that the test is free from random errors, therefore, results should be consistent over time. If one employee takes the test today and scores 99%, and the next week takes it again and scores 40%, then the test is not reliable.2. The HR manager of a manufacturing company has discovered a great personality test for choosing sales personnel, but it's rather expensive. He needs to show that using this test will benefit the company.
UTILITY: Is it worth applying the test? This standard applies to everything in life, e.g. you want to buy a new car. You can prepare your own crash text that specifically applies to your family plus all the rest of safety measures that you can imagine, but it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. The new car itself is probable worth around $40 - $50 thousand. Your life is on stake, but who actually pays that money to test a potential purchase (you might even have to spend millions testing other possible cars). So, you must rely on the tests performed and paid by the car companies themselves. A personality test might be great and 100% certain, but if it costs too much, then it is useless.3. Your HR assistant points out that the employment application used at one of the company's branch offices asks for a high school graduation date.
LEGALITY: Is it legal for you to ask about someone's graduation date? The answer is NO.4. A company performed a successful validity study on a new selection tool for their sales department and now wonders if it would be acceptable to use that tool for different jobs throughout their organization.
GENERALIZABILITY: This is about whether this tool or test is applicable in other contexts, businesses, industries, or in other business units or departments of the same company.Bond Company adopted the dollar-value LIFO inventory method on January 1, 2016.

he Lubricant is an expensive oil newsletter to which many oil giants subscribe, including Ken Brown (see Problem 3-17 for details). In the last issue, the letter described how the demand for oil products would be extremely high. Apparently, the American consumer will continue to use oil products even if the price of these products doubles. Indeed, one of the articles in the Lubricant states that the chance of a favorable market for oil products was 70%, while the chance of an unfavorable market was only 30%. Ken would like to use these probabilities in determining the best decision. What decision model should be used
Answer: Expected Monetary Value decision model
Explanation:
The Expected Monetary Value (EMV) model is a statistical method used to calculate future payoffs that accounts for the risk and probability of different events happening.
It essentially takes the average of the scenarios that could happen based on their probabilities and their expected payoff and then adds them together to give a value that the investor can base their expectations upon.
For instance, in the above question, assuming that Ken Brown in a favorable market, Ken Brown can sell $500,000 worth of oil products but in an unfavorable one, they can only sell $100,000.
Based on the probabilities of the market conditions, EMV would show a value of;
= (500,000 * 70%) + (100,000 * 30%)
= $380,000
Olivia is ordering trendy necklaces and earrings made with semi-precious stones from a supplier in Belize, for her city boutique. Due to low paying wages in Belize, the supplier has promised an excellent wholesale price for these goods. You concur with Olivia when she explains to you that international business law is very clear-cut with these dealings. As long as the supplier is not breaking any labor laws in his country, Olivia's social responsibility is covered.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
b. False
Explanation:
Remember, the term social responsibility in this context refers to an individual doing what would benefit society first, over any gain he may derive if he does otherwise.
For example, we are told that there is "low paying wages in Belize," which means low worker welfare, thus, even if no labor laws were been broken in his country, Olivia has a social responsibility to pay fair prices for the necklaces and earrings.
