Assume these events happened to Bakko, Inc. in Year 4. Bakko uses December 31 for the annual reporting period. At the beginning of Year4, Bakko owns 12 donut stores and 30 gas stations. Each of the 42 businesses is a separate business component. Bakko sells 2 donut stores in Year4 on October 1. The disposition is not considered to be a strategic shift. Bakko sells 6 gas stations in urban areas on May 1. The disposition is considered to be a strategic shift.
Match each of the following descriptions to where it would most likely be reported on Bakko's corporate income statement for Year 4.
1. Gain of $12,000 on sale of some equipment from one of the gas stations that Bakko still owns at 12/31/Year 4.
2. Bakko receives $5,000 for a fuel contract that will begin in Year 5.
3. Bakko has $100,000 gain on the sale of the gas stations on May 1, Year 4.
4. Operating results through April 30,Year 4 for the gas stations that were sold.
5. Bakko has a $20,000 loss on the sale of the donut stores on October 1.
A. Part of income from continuing operations.
B. As a discontinued operation.
C. Not part of net income for Year 4.
Answer:
1. Gain of $12,000 on sale of some equipment from one of the gas stations that Bakko still owns at 12/31/Year 4. - Part of income from continuing operations.
The gas station is still owned by Bakko so the gain received will form part of income from continuing operation.
2. Bakko receives $5,000 for a fuel contract that will begin in Year 5. - Not part of net income for Year 4
As per the Revenue Recognition principle of Accounting, revenue is only to be recorded when earned which means that this revenue will be in the Year 5 income.
3. Bakko has $100,000 gain on the sale of the gas stations on May 1, Year 4. - As a discontinued operation.
The gas station has been sold and so is a discontinued operation.
4. Operating results through April 30,Year 4 for the gas stations that were sold. - As a discontinued operation.
The gas station has been sold and so is a discontinued operation. Will be reported in the Income statement as such.
5. Bakko has a $20,000 loss on the sale of the donut stores on October 1. - As a discontinued operation.
The donut store was sold and is no longer a part of Bakko so is a discontinued operation.
Microsoft develops, produces, and markets a wide range of computer software, including the Windows operating system. On its recent financial statements, Microsoft reported the following information about net sales revenue and accounts receivable (amounts in millions).
Current Year Prior Year
Accounts receivable, net of allowances of $405 and $426 $19,792 $18,277

Explanation:
allowance for doubtful accounts
debit credit
beg. balance 426
bad debt 85
ending balance 405

A company issued 800 shares of $4 par value preferred stock for $5 per share. What is true about the journal entry to record the issuance
Answer:
This question is incomplete. I tried looking for the full question but i could not find it.
However, I have provided the notes below to help you with important principles on the issuance of Par Value stated Preference Stock.
Notes :
It is important to remember that any amount paid in excess of par value when it comes to par value stated stocks is accounted for in a stock premium reserve.
Journal Entry to record issuance of preferred stock is :
Cash $4,000 (debit)
Preference Stock $3,200 (credit)
Paid In Excess of Par $800 (credit)
Thus, of the $5 , 1$ was paid in excess and the total to go in the reserve is $800.
Causwell Company began 2018 with 27,000 units of inventory on hand. The cost of each unit was $5.00. During 2018 an additional 45,000 units were purchased at a single unit cost, and 37,000 units remained on hand at the end of 2018 (35,000 units, therefore, were sold during 2018). Causwell uses a periodic inventory system. Cost of goods sold for 2018, applying the average cost method, is $192.500. The company is interested in determining what cost of goods sold would have been if the FIFO or LIFO methods were used.Required:1. Determine the cost of goods sold for 2018 using the FIFO method.2. Determine the cost of goods sold for 2018 using the LIFO method.
Answer:
Causwell Company
FIFO LIFO
Cost of goods sold $181,400 $203,000
Explanation:
Data and Calculations: Units Unit Cost Weighted FIFO LIFO
Beginning Inventory = 27,000 $5 $135,000 $135,000 $135,000
Purchases of inventory 45,000 $5.8 $261,000 $261,000 $261,000
Goods available 72,000 $396,000 $396,000 $396,000
Ending Inventory (37,000) $5.5 $203,500 $214,600 $193,000
Inventory Sold 35,000 $5.5 $192,500 $181,400 $203,000
Unit cost = $5.00
Computation of the Value of beginning inventory = $135,000 (27,000 x $5)
From the value of Inventory Sold (Cost of goods sold), determine the unit cost. This is applied to the ending inventory units, to ascertain its value. This value is added to the cost of goods sold, to determine the cost of goods available for sale, which is made up of the beginning inventory and purchases. From the Cost of Goods Available for Sale subtract the beginning inventory, to obtain the purchases in amount. Divide the value by units and you obtain the unit cost.
Businesses in the United States are governed by laws that provide rights to all citizens regardless of their race, color, religion, gender, or country of origin. The U.S. Constitution established three branches of government to ensure that no one group or individual could control all the power. The three branches—legislative, executive, and judicial—act as a system of checks and balances. The goal of this activity is to determine which branch of government regulates each human resource management issue. The three branches of government in the United States influence human resource management (HRM) practices such as recruitment, selection, compensation, and performance management. This activity is important because Individuals need to be aware of the legal system and legislation governing HRM practices in the workplace.

Full-time employees are paid $14 an hour, while part-time employees are paid $12 an hour. Lastly, during each of the shifts, there must be at least two full-time employees sta ed for every part-time employee.
Formulate a linear programming model to satisfy the stang requirements at minimum cost.
Explanation:
we have to define certain variables in ordet for us to formulate the linear programming model
[tex]aj =[/tex] the number of full time staff hired at time j
[tex]bj=[/tex] number of full time staff hired at time j
1 full time emploer 8hrs x 14$
= 112 dollars
1 part time worker = 4hrs x $12
= 48 dollars
we set up the model as:
[tex]minimize 112(a_{1} +a_{2} +a_{3} )+48(b_{1} +b_{2} +b_{3})[/tex]
[tex]a_{1} + b_{1} = 4[/tex]
[tex]a_{1} +a_{2} +b_{2} = 10[/tex]
[tex]a_{2} +a_{3} +b_{3} =8[/tex]
[tex]a_{3} +b_{4} =6[/tex]
[tex]a_{1} >2b_{1}[/tex]
[tex]a_{1} +a_{2} \geq 2b_{2}[/tex]

An investor can design a risky portfolio based on two stocks, A and B. Stock A has an expected return of 21% and a standard deviation of return of 39%. Stock B has an expected return of 14% and a standard deviation of return of 20%. The correlation coefficient between the returns of A and B is 0.4. The risk-free rate of return is 5%. The standard deviation of the returns on the optimal risky portfolio is :_______
a. 25.5%
b. 22.3%
c. 21.4%
d. 20.7%
Answer:
Option c (21.4%) is the right approach.
Explanation:
As we know.
wA and wB = weights of the securities SDA and SDB = standard deviations Cor(A,B) = correlation coefficient.On applying the formula:
⇒ [tex]SD \ Portfolio = [wA^2\times SDA^2+wB^2\times SDB^2+2\times wA\times wB\times SDA\times SDB\times Cor(A,B)]^{0.5}[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
⇒ [tex](0.29^2\times 39^2+0.71^2\times 20^2+2\times 0.29\times 0.71\times 39\times 20\times 0.4)^{0.5}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]21.40 \ Percent[/tex] (%)
Chicago's Hard Rock Hotel distributes a mean of 1,000 bath towels per day to guests at the pool and in their rooms. This demand is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 100 towels per day, based on occupancy. The laundry firm that has the linens contract requires a 2-day lead time. The hotel expects a 98% service level to satisfy high guest expectations.
Required:
a. What is the reorder point?
b. What is the safety stock?
c. What is the ROP?
Answer:
1. Reorder point = 2,290 towels
2. Safety shock = 290 towels
Explanation:
1. Reorder Point
ROP = (Average daily demand * Lead time in days) + Z*б(dlt)
Z= No of SD depending on the service level of 98%
б(dlt) = SD in demand during the lead time
We derive б(dlt) given the SD in demand б(d) = 100 towels/day using the formula
б(dlt) = б(d) *[tex]\sqrt{ Lead time}[/tex] .................(2)
Where the lead time = 2 days
Substitute in equation 2, the value of б(d) = 100 towels/day and Lead time = 2 days to obtain
б(dlt) = 100 * [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]
б(dlt) = 100 * 1.4142
б(dlt) = 141.42 towels
Substitute in equation (1), Z = 2.05 for a service level of 98%
Average daily demand = 1,000 towels, Lead time = 2 days, б(dlt) = 141.42 towels to obtain
ROP = (1,000 * 2) + 2.05*141.42
ROP = 2,290 towels
b. Safety shock
The safety shock = Z * б(dlt)
Substitute the value of Z = 2.05 and б(dlt) = 141.42 towels to obtain
The safety shock = 2.05 * 141.42
The safety shock = 290 towels
SNC has its own, modest internet-based business. However, the company has been approached by Golden Years Nutraceuticals, a much larger online distributor of third-party brands with connections to a national healthcare website endorsed by a leading senior advocacy association. Therefore, Golden Years reaches a large-and increasing-consumer base of older Americans. This opportunity would generate an additional 10% increase in sales in 2016, followed by increases of 5% in 2017 and 3% in 2018. Increasing the percentage of SNC's business that is conducted online would decrease DSO, because internet sales are collected very quickly. Accounts receivable would decrease by 7 days in the first year and by an additional 3 days in 2017, for a total improvement of 10 days. In 2018, the DSO would decline by another 2 days-in effect, 12 days lower than at the start of 2016. Going forward, the DSO would stay at this lower level and SNC's profit margin would remain unchanged. What would you like to do about this opportunity?

5. Problems and Applications Q5 In the 1990s and the first two decades of the 2000s, investors from the Asian economies of Japan and China made significant direct and portfolio investments in the United States. At the time, many Americans were unhappy that this investment was occurring. True or False: It was better for the United States not to receive this foreign investment because it shrank the capital stock. True False True or False: It's best for Americans that China and Japan, rather than Americans themselves, made the investment, so that Americans can have more to spend on consumption. True False
Answer:
False FalseExplanation:
The investment from China and Japan would have increased the capital stock because it would mean that there was more cash for investment products in the United States. It would be false therefore to say that the investments shrank capital stock.
On the other hand, it would have been best that Americans and not the Chinese or the Japanese made the investments because when investments yield returns, those returns are sent to the investors which in this case are in Japan and China which means that more money will be flowing out the United States.

According to a recent Frobes articles, the revenue of the globe outsourced services Industry rose from 45 billion in 2000 to nearly 100,000,000,000 in 2012. Competition among firms in that BPO market is strong. Companies based in the United States include HP enterprise services, affiliated come to Peterson services, an automated data processing (ADP). A number of Indian companies, however, also provide worldwide BPO services, such as Infosys, Wipro, and Genpact.

Answer and Explanation:
A good number of problems usually arise with outsourcing from outside the country.
1. Different laws and regulations: this is one if not the greatest impediments to outsourcing staff for a business. The legal and tax implications of outsourcing to a different country creates the need to make sure business processes align with the legal frameworks or laws in these regions.
2. Language barriers: this aspect considers the challenges of communication when utilizing BPO services. There is the need for clear communication using US English from the example. Example outsourcing to an Asian country where English is somewhat a rarity.
3. There is also the need for increased data protection, privacy and security measures as there is more exposure to data breaches with this form of outsourcing.
4. However overall outsourcing makes available cheaper labour as well as more competent hands as is this case with US and China

There is a new country called Saffron where the people's political opinions lead them to divide themselves into five different groups, representing different outlooks on how the legislature should approach public policy. These five groups based on political convictions in turn result in the formation of five political parties (each named after a type of food). The five parties are listed below in order from most liberal to most conservative. In the first election for the legislature in this country the people vote for their candidates and their parties as follows, with the vote in the whole country being the same as the vote in every part of it:
Fruit 28%Soup 14%Bread 12%Meat 20%Vegetable 26%If after the first election process is complete the Vegetable party has some seats in the legislature and the Meat party has none, then the election system is which of the following?A. Proportional representation.B. Single member districts and majority winners.C. Single member districts and plurality winners.
Answer: B. Single member districts and majority winners.
Explanation:
This is a Single member district majoritarian system because that is the only way that Vegetable party would have some seats in the legislature and the Meat party would have none.
In a Single member district majoritarian system, only 1 member will be chosen per district and this would be the person with the majority of votes in the first election process.
In this case therefore, Vegetable party won the majority in some districts that it ran in and Meat did not win the majority in any.

a. If you will be making equal deposits into a retirement account for 20 years (with each payment at the end of the year), how much must you deposit each year if the account earns 8% compounded annually and you wish the account to grow to $5,000,000 after 40 years (in time 40)?
b. How does your answer to part (a) change if the account pays interest compounded monthly at an annual rate of 8%?
Answer:
A) we can use the future value of an annuity formula:
future value = annual contribution x FV annuity factor
future value = $5,000,000FV annuity factor, 8%, 40 periods = 259.05652annual contribution = $5,000,000 / 259.05652 = $19,300.81
B) we need to calculate the effective annual interest rate:
= (1 + 0.08/12)¹² - 1 = 8.3%
future value = annual contribution x FV annuity factor
future value = $5,000,000FV annuity factor, 8.3%, 40 periods = 280.40756annual contribution = $5,000,000 / 280.40756 = $17,831.19
your annual contribution will decrease by $1,469.62
A company understated its ending inventory balance by $4,000 in 2021. What impact will this error have on cost of goods sold and gross profit in 2021 and 2022?
Answer:
Cost of goods sold will be overstated by $4,000 in 2021.
Gross profit will be understated by $4,000 in 2022.
Explanation:
If ending inventory is underestimated, then the cost of goods sold would increase by same amount of underestimated inventory I.e $4,000.
However, since cost of goods would increase by $4,000 in 2021, the gross profit will be underestimated by $4,000 in 2022. This is because the overstatement of cost goods sold have eroded the extra profit that should have been added to the gross profit.

Lewis Bros. currently has outstanding debt but has decided to issue additional debt for expansion purposes. The pretax cost of the new debt is best estimated at the ________ of the currently outstanding debt.
Answer: b. current yield to maturity
Explanation:
Interest rates charged on debt are primarily based on the risk of the borrower being able to pay back the debt. The higher the risk, the higher the interest rate charged.
The risk of not paying (default) back the debt is higher when the borrower already has existing debt. This is why in such instances, the interest on the new debt will be based on the yield to maturity (interest rate) of the existing debt so that the risk of default is adequately accounted for.
