Civillization
Explanation:
The following account balances were listed on the trial balance of Edgar Company at the end of the period: AccountBalance Accounts Payable$31,600 Cash 49,900 Common Stock 35,000 Equipment 16,000 Land 47,500 Notes Payable 62,500 The company’s trial balance is not in balance and the company’s accountant has determined that the error is in the cash account. What is the correct balance in the cash account?
Answer: $65,600
Explanation:
Debits should equal credits
Debits = Cash + Equipment + Land
= 49,900 + 16,000 + 47,500
= $113,400
Credits = Accounts Payable + Common stock + Notes Payable
= 31,600 + 35,000 + 62,500
= $129,100
The difference will be added to the Cash account where the error is from.
= 49,900 + (129,100 - 113,400)
= $65,600
Roose, Inc. reported revenue of $92 million and incurred total expenses of $84 million. The total expenses included cost of goods sold of $50 million, salaries and other administrative expenses of $9 million, $11 million of interest paid on a building's mortgage, and $14 million of depreciation. Assuming Roose is subject to the interest expense limitation, what amount of interest expense can the business deduct in the current year
Answer:
Roose, Inc.
The business can deduct $9.5 million in the current year.
Explanation:
Revenue = $92 million
Expenses allowed = 73 million ( $84 - $11 million for interest expense)
Adjusted taxable income before interest = $19 million
50% of adjusted taxable income = $9.5 million
Disallowed interest expense in the current year = $1.5 million
The interest expense allowed (deductible) is 50% for 2019 and 2020, as amended by the CARES Act) of the taxpayer's adjusted taxable income.
Which of the following is correct? Group of answer choices Risk-averse people will not hold stock. Diversification cannot reduce firm-specific risk. The larger the percentage of stock in a portfolio, the greater the risk, but the greater the average return. Stock prices are determined by fundamental analysis rather than by supply and demand.
Answer: The larger the percentage of stock in a portfolio, the greater the risk, but the greater the average return.
Explanation:
Stock in general is more risky than most financial instruments but this risk is accompanied with greater returns. This is why it is generally advisable to diversify stock in a portfolio.
As already mentioned, stock is risky but rewarding. It therefore follows that the more stock is in a portfolio, the risker the portfolio but the greater the average return.
A contractor builds two types of homes. The Carolina requires one lot, $160,000 capital, and 160 worker-days of labor, whereas the Savannah requires one lot, $240,000 capital, and 160 worker-days of labor. The contractor owns 300 lots and has $48,000,000 available capital and 43,200 worker-days of labor. The profit on the Carolina is $80,000 and the profit on the Savannah is $90,000. Find how many of each type of home should be built to maximize profit.
Answer:
the contractor should build 210 Carolina type homes and 60 Savannah type homes
Explanation:
you have to maximize the following equation: 80000C + 90000S
Where:
C = Carolina type homes
S = Savannah type homes
the constraints are:
160000C + 240000S ≤ 48000000
160C + 160S ≤ 43,200
C ≥ 0
S ≥ 0
using solver, the optimal solution is 210C + 60S = $22,200,000
Ramon had AGI of $165,000 in 2020. He is considering making a charitable contribution this year to the American Heart Association, a qualified charitable organization. Determine the current allowable charitable contribution deduction in each of the following independent situations, and indicate the treatment for any amount that is not deductible currently. Identify any planning ideas to minimize Ramon's tax liability.
Answer:
the situations are missing, so I looked for similar questions:
a. A cash gift of $68,500.
In the current year, Ramon may deduct $68,500 since his charitable contribution is limited to $165,000.
b. A gift of OakCo stock worth $68,500 on the contribution date. Ramon had acquired the stock as an investment two years ago at a cost of $61,650.
The stock's value for determining the contribution is $68,500 (fair market value). The deduction for 2020 is $49,500 (30% of AGI). The remaining $19,000 for years.
c. A gift of a painting worth $68,500 that Ramon purchased three years ago for $61,650. The charity has indicated that it would sell the painting to generate cash to fund medical research.
The contribution is valued at $61,650 (the charity will sell the painting immediately). The amount deductible in the current year is $61,650.
Explanation:
The charitable contribution limit was increased to 100% of AGI for 2020 by the CARES Act (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act).
Assume Brad has a choice between two deposit accounts. Account WH has an annual percentage rate of 7.35% with interest compounded continuously. Account MW has an annual percentage rate of 7.45% with interest compounded monthly. Which account provides the highest effective annual return?
Answer: Account MW which compounds monthly provides a higher effective rate at 7.71%
Explanation:
Use the Effective Interest rate formula to see which offers the higher return.
Account WH;
Compounded continuously;
= e^(interest rate) - 1
= e^7.35% - 1
= 7.63%
Account MW
Compounded per month
= (( 1 + interest / compounding period) ^ period) - 1
= (( 1 + 7.45%/12) ^ 12) -1
= 7.71%
Park competes with World by providing a variety of rides. sells tickets at $110 per person as a one-day entrance fee. Variable costs are $44 per person, and fixed costs $412,500 are per month. Under these conditions, the breakeven point in tickets is 6,250 and the breakeven point in sales dollars is $687,500.
Requirement
1. Suppose Park cuts its ticket price from to to increase the number of tickets sold. Compute the new breakeven point in tickets and in sales dollars. 2. Begin by selecting the formula labels and then entering the amounts to compute the number of tickets must sell to break even under this scenario
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Variable costs are $44 per person
Fixed costs $412,500
Let's suppose that the new selling price is $100.
To calculate the break-even point in units and dollars, we need to use the following formulas:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 412,500 / (100 - 44)
Break-even point in units= 7,366 units
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 412,500 / (56/100)
Break-even point (dollars)= $736,607
None of the following would be an advantage of self-administered surveys:
A) Reduced cost
B) Respondent control
C) Reduced interview evaluation apprehension
A. True
B. False
Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
A self-administered survey is one where there is the collection of the necessary data for the survey is carried out through a questionnaire of questions to be answered by the interviewee. Questionnaires can be sent via mail, e-mail, personal interception, hand delivery etc.
The advantages of self-administered surveys are cost reduction, since questionnaires can be sent via email at no cost to both, greater control of the interviewee, since the questions can be developed according to the information you want to collect, greater quick feedback, which reduces the apprehension of the interview evaluation.
False, the self-administered surveys would not be advantageous in terms of reduced interview evaluation apprehension. The Option B.
Would self-administered surveys be advantageous?Self-administered surveys eliminate the need for face-to-face interactions and direct interviewer involvement which can indeed reduce interview evaluation apprehension. When individuals complete surveys on their own, they may feel less pressured and more comfortable expressing their opinions.
But this advantage does not hold true for self-administered surveys as they are completed by the respondents themselves without the presence of an interviewer. Consequently, the absence of an interviewer does not contribute to a reduction in interview evaluation apprehension. Therefore, the Option B is correct.

Last year Janet purchased a $1,000 face value corporate bond with an 11% annual coupon rate and a 15-year maturity. At the time of the purchase, it had an expected yield to maturity of 12.21%. If Janet sold the bond today for $993.14, what rate of return would she have earned for the past year? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
20.10%
Explanation:
The first task is to compute the bond's purchase price last year which is found using the bond price formula below:
bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+ annual coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n/r
face value=$1000
r=yield to maturity=12.21%
n=number of annual coupons in 15 years=15
annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*11%=$110
bond price=1000/(1+12.21%)^15+110*(1-(1+12.21%)^-15/12.21%
bond price=1000/(1+12.21%)^15+110*(1-0.177634192 )/12.21%
bond price=$918.50
Rate of return=(price today-initial price+coupon received)/initial price
price today= $993.14
initial price=$918.50
coupon received(for 1 year)=$110
Rate of return=($993.14-$918.50+$110)/$918.50=20.10%

Answer:
Please see explanation below.
Explanation:
°To what three different audiences might you have to give a presentation.
Answer:
• Senior manager
• Project manager
• Team leader.
° How would the presentation differ for each.
• Senior manager. The senior manager will be presented with existing IT structures in a brief manner. In addition to being given the short description of the previous IT system, a short explanation of the newly built and improvement on these existing systems will as well be presented to the senior manager.
• Project manager. A project manager would be presented with detailed description of the project. This is because the project manager must have first knowledge of the whole project and will be held accountable for the success or failure of the project. He would also be giving reports to the senior managers.
• Team leader. The details of the current process as the project progresses will be shared with the team leader.
° Which one will be the most challenging for you.
The most challenging for me will be the project manager because he would have to be presented with a well detailed and thorough description of the whole project. More so, further details of the cost expended on the system will be shared with the project manager.

Suppose that, in a competitive market without government regulations, the equilibrium price of gasoline is $3.00 per gallon.
Complete the following table by indicating whether each of the statements is an example of a price ceiling or a price floor and whether it is binding or nonbinding.
Statement Price Control Binding or Not
The government prohibits gas stations from selling gasoline for more than $2.50 per gallon.
The government has instituted a legal minimum price of $3.40 per gallon for gasoline.
There are many teenagers who would like to work at gas stations, but they are not hired due to minimum-wage laws.
Answer:
Price ceiling binding
price floor binding
Price floor binding
Explanation:
A price floor is when the government or an agency of the government sets the minimum price of a product. A price floor is binding if it is set above equilibrium price.
Price ceiling is when the government or an agency of the government sets the maximum price for a product. It is binding when it is set below equilibrium price.
The maximum price ($2.50) is less than the equilibrium price($3) . So it is a binding price ceiling
The minimum price ($3.40) is greater than the equilibrium price($3) . So it is a binding price floor
Goal-Setting, Expectancy, Reinforcement, and Equity Theory
Goal-Setting, Expectancy, Reinforcement, and Equity Theories all serve Theory Y managers in understanding how employees can be motivated at work. Employees seek interesting and challenging work in a fair work environment that allows for autonomy. There should be a system to engage everyone in the organization in goal setting and implementation as well as an expectation that effort expended will result in a positive outcome and be balanced from one employee to another (given the same work). Managers can also find success in fairness and a reward system that all employees value.
Goal-setting theory is based on the premise that employees are motivated when they are clear about the goals they are working toward. More importantly, they are more likely to engage to attain these goals if they collaborate with management in planning. Management by Objectives (MBO) is the process of discussion, review, and evaluation of goals between a manager and employee. Expectancy theory is based on the premise that the amount of effort employees exert on a specific task depends on their expectations of the outcome. Reinforcement theory states that individuals act to receive rewards and avoid punishment. A manager may attempt to surface good behaviors through rewards and extinguish poor behaviors through punishment. Equity theory zeros in on how employees' perceptions of fairness affect their willingness to perform.

8.Kline and Salomon form the KS Partnership as 50/50 partners. Kline contributes equipment that has a fair market value of $60,000 and an adjusted basis of $45,000. In addition, the equipment is subject to a $10,000 loan that KS Partnership is assuming. What amount represents Kline's initial basis in the partnership
Answer: $40,000
Explanation:
Kline brings in equipment that is worth $60,000 but has a basis of $45,000.
The equipment however is subject to a loan of $10,000.
This loan will have to be deducted from the basis. The partnership however is assuming the loan and Kline is only 50% liable in the partnership so Kline's basis will only be affected by half of the loan.
Basis = 45,000 - 5,000
= $40,000

Lilliput is a country that has closed borders and does not import or export any goods or services; hence, they do not worry about trade with other countries. Total spending for the federal government of Lilliput for the last fiscal year was $4.71 billion. The country collected $4.83 billion in taxes during this same fiscal year. Assume government transfers were zero. Based on this information, what is Lilliput's budget balance
Answer: $0.12 billion
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question:
Total spending for Lilliput last fiscal year = $4.71 billion
Tax collected(Revenue)= $4.83 billion
Government transfers = $0
Lilliput's budget balance based on the information provided will be:
= (Taxes - Government transfers) - Government expenditures
= ($4.83 billion - $0) - $4.71 billion
= $0.12 billion
What type of buffer(s) (inventory, time, or capacity) would you expect to find in the following situations? a) A maker of custom cabinets b) A producer of automotive spare parts c) A hospital emergency room d) Wal-Mart e) Amazon f) A government contractor that builds submarines g) A bulk producer of various chemicals h) A maker of lawn mowers for K-mart and Target i) A freeway j) The space shuttle k) A business school
Answer:
a) A maker of custom cabinets ⇒ TIME, generally goods that are custom made take longer to produce and clients are aware of this.
b) A producer of automotive spare parts ⇒ CAPACITY, if more parts are needed, you will have to use spare capacity.
c) A hospital emergency room ⇒ CAPACITY, services cannot be stocked, therefore, the only possible buffer is capacity since they cannot make their patients wait in line (a dead person waiting in line is no longer a patient).
d) Wal-Mart ⇒ INVENTORY, whether a store is a brick and mortar or internet retailer, its cheapest safety stock (buffer) is generally inventory.
e) Amazon ⇒ INVENTORY, whether a store is a brick and mortar or internet retailer, its cheapest safety stock (buffer) is generally inventory.
f) A government contractor that builds submarines ⇒ TIME, submarines are very expensive and it takes years to build them, so a week more wouldn't make a difference.
h) A maker of lawn mowers for K-mart and Target ⇒ INVENTORY, the company probably knows when it is going to sell more, so it can add to its inventory of finished goods just in case.
i) A freeway ⇒ CAPACITY and then TIME, services cannot be stocked, and since it takes years to plan and build a highway or freeway, the only possible initial buffer is capacity. But once full capacity is reached, then the only buffer is time.
j) The space shuttle ⇒ INVENTORY, since you cannot go back to Earth just to get refueled, you must carry extra fuel just in case. The same for the rest of the stuff.
k) A business school ⇒ CAPACITY, services cannot be stocked, and no student will wait a few extra years just to get into the school that they love.

The process of taking cash flow that is received or paid in the future and stating that cash flow in present value terms is called discounting. A. True B. False
Answer:
A. True
Explanation:
The process of taking cash flow that is received or paid in the future and stating that cash flow in present value terms is called discounting.
Discounting is the opposite of Compounding because discounting measures what the value of future cash flow is worth in the present while compounding takes the present value into the future. Discounting generally points to a method of knowing the present value of cash flow. Discounting is an important tool due to how a business could know the present value of what the business spends and gains by comparing it to the future value of what is to be received.
The cash flow that is received or paid in the future is less than the present value of the cash flow and that depicts the time value of money.
Suppose there are 100 million in the labor force, and 6 million unemployed people. During the next month, 200,000 people lose their jobs and 300,000 find jobs. The new total of employed persons is ________ and the new unemployment rate is ________.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the currently employed people and the unemployment rate:
Employed people= 100,000,000 - 6,000,000= 94,000,000
Unemployment rate= unemployed people / labor force
Unemployment rate= 6,000,000 / 100,000,000
Unemployment rate= 0.06= 6%
Now, the newly employed people and the unemployment rate:
Employed people= 94,000,000 + 300,000 - 200,000
Employed people= 94,100,000
Unemployment rate= 5,900,000 / 100,000,000
Unemployment rate= 0.059 = 5.9%
A perpetuity pays $170 per year and interest rates are 8.2 percent. How much would its value change if interest rates increased to 9.7 percent
Answer:
$320.59 decrease
Explanation:
The computation of the change in the value is shown below:
As we know that
The Value of perpetuity is
= Annual inflows ÷ interest rate
Current value is
= $170 ÷ 0.082
= $2,073.17
And,
New value is
= $170 ÷ 0.097
= $1,752.58
Now change in value is
= $2,073.17 - $1,752.58
= $320.59 decrease
We simply applied the above formula
Linden, Inc. uses a 5,700 square foot factory space that it rents for $2,800 a month for all its manufacturing activities. Linden has decided to switch to an activity-based costing system, and has identified its activities as follows: Preparation and Setup, Machining, Finishing, and Quality Control. 2,600 square feet of the factory are used for machining, while 1,300 square feet (each) are used for Preparation and Setup and Quality Control. Finishing uses 500 square feet. When assigning indirect costs to each activity, how much factory rent should be assigned to the Preparation and Setup cost pool
Answer:
$639
Explanation:
Rent assigned to preparation and setup = Total rent / Total space * Space used by preparation and setup
= $2,800 / 5,700 * 1,300
= 638.5965
= $639
Therefore, the factory rent that would be assigned to Preparation and Setup cost pool is $639.

Required: 1. Determine the effect of these errors on retained earnings at January 1, 2021, before any adjustments. (Ignore income taxes.) 2. Prepare a journal entry to correct the errors.
Answer:
WMC Corporation
Misstatement of Ending Inventories:
1. Effect of these errors on Retained Earnings at January 1, 2021:
a) The understated amount by $124,000 in 2019 has self-corrected in 2020 with the Beginning Inventory also understated. So, it has no effect on the Retained Earnings at January 1, 2021.
b) The overstated ending inventories by $154,000 will overstate the Retained Earnings at January 1, 2021 by the same amount. Since it has not self-corrected like (a), the correction will be to reduce the Retained Earnings and reduce the Beginning Inventories by $154,000.
2. Journal Entry:
Debit Retained Earnings $154,000
Credit Beginning Inventories $154,000
To reverse the overstated inventories.
Explanation:
a) Data:
2019 understated by $ 124,000
2020 overstated by 154,000
Inventory system = periodic
Inventory method = FIFO

g Question 3 (ASC Required - 20 points): After graduation, you work for a few years at a major accounting firm and advance to Senior. However, as part of this role, you start working on a client that is different from your other background: specifically, a major bank located in San Francisco. This bank primarily takes deposits from retail and business customers and lends money out to others. The accounting seems to be completely different from what you are used to and so you go to the Codification to find out what the accounting standards for this industry consist of. Describe the major classes of transactions undertaken by this sort of entity and how they should be accounted for.
Answer with Explanation:
The major transactions that a bank will be involved in are listed below:
Deposits of accounts holders: These deposits are basically the liability of the bank which it will pay them back in near future. Hence it must be recorded as a Current or Non-current liability depending upon the type of account and agreement between the parties to contract. Money lendings to borrowers: This money must be accounted for as a current or non-current asset depending upon the type of account and agreement made.Interest on the money lendings: It is interest income and must be accounted for as revenue.ATM and other Transaction processing charges: These fee charges are also part of income and thus must be accounted for as income.Total Company North South Sales $ 600,000 $ 400,000 $ 200,000 Variable expenses 360,000 280,000 80,000 Contribution margin 240,000 120,000 120,000 Traceable fixed expenses 120,000 60,000 60,000 Segment margin 120,000 $ 60,000 $ 60,000 Common fixed expenses 50,000 Net operating income $ 70,000 Required: 1. Compute the companywide break-even point in dollar sales. 2. Compute the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region. 3. Compute the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.
Answer:
1. Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= $425,000
2. Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $200,000
3. Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $100,000
Explanation:
1. Computation of the companywide break-even point in dollar sales
First step is to find the Contribution margin ratio
Using this formula
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Sales
Contribution margin ratio:
Total company: ($240,000/$600,000)=0.4
North : ($120,000/$400,000)=0.4
South : ($120,000/$200,000)=0.6
Now let compute the Company wide break-even point in dollar sales using this formula
Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= Fixed costs / Contribution margin ratio
Let plug in the formula
Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= ($120,000 + $50,000) / 0.4
Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= $425,000
