Jen Rogers withdrew a total of $15,000 from her business during the current year. The entry needed to close the withdrawals account is:_________
A. Debit Income Summary and credit Cash for $31,000.
B. Debit Jen Rogers, Withdrawals and credit Cash for $31,000 Debit Income Summary and credit Jen Rogers, Withdrawals for $31,000.
C. Debit Jen Rogers, Capital and credit Jen Rogers, Withdrawals for $31,000.
D. Debit Jen Rogers, Withdrawals and credit Jen Rogers, Capital for $31,000.
Answer: C. Debit Jen Rogers, Capital and credit Jen Rogers, Withdrawals for $15,000
Explanation:
The options do not match the question. Correct answer is posted.
When closing the Withdrawal account at the end of the period, the withdrawals need to be accounted for from the capital invested by the investor because the withdrawals would reduce the capital balance.
To do this the Capital account should be debited to signify that it is reducing. The opposing entry therefore will be to credit the Withdrawals account.

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).
Suppose you are interested in obtaining a mortgage loan for $250,000 in order to purchase your principal residence. Your lender has suggested that you might be interested in taking an FHA loan. In order to do so, you must pay an additional up-front mortgage insurance premium (UFMIP) of 1.0% of the mortgage balance. If the interest rate on the fully amortizing mortgage loan is 5% and the term is 30 years, what is your monthly mortgage payment assuming the UFMIP is financed
Answer:
$1,355.47
Explanation:
if you are going to finance the up-front mortgage insurance premium, then the total principal of the loan will increase by 1%, so it will be = $250,000 x 1.01 = $252,500. It is normal to finance UFMIP payments since they are additional closing costs and the whole purpose of FHA loans is to allow more people to be able to buy a house.
we can use the present value of an annuity formula to determine the monthly payment.
monthly payment = principal / PV annuity factor
principal = $252,500PV annuity factor = 186.2816monthly payment = $252,500 / 186.2816 = $1,355.474722 ≈ $1,355.47
I prepared an amortization schedule in order to check the answer. At the end the final balance is $3.83, but that is because you have to round to the nearest cent. If the payment is rounded to $1,355.48, the the balance is -$4.50.
Joe is a regular customer. He's been in 4 times over the past two weeks. Each
time, he's received a wire transfer of $2000. He immediately sends a wire for
$500 and comes back into the store the next day to send 3 more money
transfers of $500 each to 3 different people.
The situation raises the following Red Flags (Select all that apply)
Joe has multiple friends.
Joe's transaction activity is frequent and for larger dollar amounts.
Joe is breaking up the transaction into smaller amounts.
Joe sometimes purchases other items in the store such as toothpaste and medicine.
Joe is breaking up received money into smaller amounts of money and sending to
several people.
Answer:
Joe's situation raises the following Red Flags:
Joe is breaking up the transaction into smaller amounts.
Explanation:
Joe is following money laundry footsteps. I suspect that he may be involved in some fraudulent practices, no wonder he is making some frantic efforts to launder the wire transfer of $2,000. He had completed sending some of the proceeds to some other persons. Perhaps, he will remit more cash in similar ways.
Answer:
Joe is breaking up the transaction into smaller accounts
Joe's transaction activity is frequent and for larger dollar amounts.
Joe is breaking up received money into smaller amounts of money and sending to several people
Explanation:
Which of these is an acceptable less hazardous method of cleaning than solvents?
[You Chose] Using disposable wipesUsing a dishwasherUsing a water hoseMechanical cleaning
Answer:
I guess that this depends on what you want to clean, but my choice is
using a dishwasherE.g. if you are a mechanic and you need to clean auto parts (which are dirty and greasy), then a hot soap washer is very useful. A hot soap washer is basically a dishwasher that works with hot pressurized water. Generally, detergent is much less hazardous than solvents. This method applies to all the objects that can be moved into the sink in order to be washed.
If you want to clean things at home, the same applies. The least hazardous cleaning method is using hot water and detergent.
A pressurized water hose may be a solution to certain issues, e.g. clean bird poop on top of a car or a sidewalk. If you can mechanically clean something (use a broom or vacuum cleaner), then there is no reason why you would need a solvent. Using disposable wipes only increases the amount of waste that you generate.
Answer:
The correct alternative to cleaning parts beside just using solvents, would be Mechanical Cleaning.
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
Paula has sales that qualify to be reported on the installment basis. In year 2, installment sales were $40,000 with a cost of $30,000. In year 3, installment sales were $50,000 with a cost of $25,000. Collections in year 2 were in the amount of $30,000. Collections in year 3 were $10,000 on the year 2 sales and $30,000 on the year 3 sales. How much deferred gross profit exists as of the end of year 2
Answer: $2500
Explanation:
Gross profit is gotten when costs are subtracted from sales. Deferred gross profit is the cash that hasn't been gotten by a business.
The percentage on gross profit percentage will be calculated as:
= ($40000-$30000)/$40000 × 100
= $10,000/$40,000 × 100
= 0.25 × 100
= 25%
Deffered gross profit will now be calculated by multiplying the gross profit percentage by the cash to be cash to be collected. This will be:
=$10000 × 25%
= $2500
The deferred gross profit that exists as of the end of year 2 is $2500
Suppose that real GDP grew more in Country A than in Country B last year.
a. Country A must have a higher standard of living than country B.
b. Country A's worker productivity must have grown faster than country B's.
c. Both of the above are correct.
d. None of the above are correct.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
The standard of living is calculated as real GDP / population. Even though the real GDP of country A grew faster than country B, country A's population might be higher than country B's making its standard of living lower.
To make a conclusion that the growth of country A's worker productivity grew faster, it must be assumed that population grew at the same rate in both countries

Future value of $450 per year for 6 years at 5%: $ 3,213.90
Future value of $200 per year for 6 years at 0%: $
Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
The formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity given as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)
Where,
FV = Future value of the amount =?
M = Annuity payment
r = Annual interest rate
n = number of periods years
This formula is now applied as follows:
a. $900 per year for 12 years at 10%. $ 19,245.85
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $900
r = 10%, or 0.10
n = 12
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $900 * (((1 + 0.10)^12 - 1) / 0.10)
FV = $900 * 21.38428376721
FV = $19,245.855390489
Rounding the nearest cent, we have:
FV = 19,245.86
b. $450 per year for 6 years at 5%. $ 3,060.86
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $450
r = 5%, or 0.05
n = 6
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $450 * (((1 + 0.05)^6 - 1) / 0.05)
FV = $450 * 6.8019128125
FV = $3,060.860765625
Rounding the nearest cent, we have:
FV = $3,060.86
c. $200 per year for 6 years at 0%. $
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $200
r = 0%, or 0
n = 6
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $200 * (((1 + 0)^6 - 1) / 0)
FV = $200 * ((1^6 - 1) / 0)
FV = $200 * ((1 - 1) / 0)
FV = $200 * (0 / 0)
FV = $200 * 0
FV = $0
d. Rework parts a, b, and c assuming they are annuities due.
The formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Annuity Due is given as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) * (1 + r) ................................. (2)
Where,
FV = Future value
M = Annuity payment
r = Annual interest rate
n = number of periods years
This formula is now applied as follows:
d-1. Future value of $900 per year for 12 years at 10%: $ 21,170.43
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $900
r = 10%, or 0.10
n = 12
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
FV = $900 * (((1 + 0.10)^12 - 1) / 0.10) * (1 + 0.10)
FV = $900 * 21.38428376721 * 1.10
FV = $2,1170.4409295379
Rounding the nearest cent, we have:
FV = $2,1170.44
d-2. Future value of $450 per year for 6 years at 5%: $ 3,213.90
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $450
r = 5%, or 0.05
n = 6
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
FV = $450 * (((1 + 0.05)^6 - 1) / 0.05) * (1 + 0.05)
FV = $450 * 6.8019128125 * 1.05
FV = $3,213.90380390625
Rounding the nearest cent, we have:
FV = $3,213.90
d-3. Future value of $200 per year for 6 years at 0%: $
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $200
r = 0%, or 0
n = 6
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
FV = $200 * (((1 + 0)^6 - 1) / 0) * (1 + 0)
FV = $200 * ((1^6 - 1) / 0) * 1
FV = $200 * ((1 - 1) / 0) * 1
FV = $200 * (0 / 0) * 1
FV = $200 * 0 * 1

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
A share of Lash Inc.'s common stock just paid a dividend of $2.10. If the expected long-run growth rate for this stock is 5%, and if investors' required rate of return is 18.5%, what is the stock price
Answer:
P0 = $16.333333333 rounded off to $16.33
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
D0 * (1+g) is dividend expected for the next period g is the growth rate r is the required rate of return
P0 = 2.1 * (1+0.05) / (0.185 - 0.05)
P0 = $16.333333333 rounded off to $16.33
Explain the digestion process of a complex carbohydrate by arranging the statements in the order that they occur.
a. The enzyme, amylase. which is present in saliva breaks potysaccharide chains into disaccharides.
b. Other enzymes in the small intestine further break the potysaccharide into monosaccharides.
c. You take a bite and to chew the complex carbohydrate into smaller pieces.
d. Amylase is deactivated by the low pH in the stomach.
e. Monosaccharides are absorbed through the intestinal wad.
Answer:
The digestion process of a complex carbohydrate:
c. You take a bite and to chew the complex carbohydrate into smaller pieces.
a. The enzyme, amylase. which is present in saliva breaks polysaccharide chains into disaccharides.
b. Other enzymes in the small intestine further break the polysaccharide into monosaccharides.
d. Amylase is deactivated by the low pH in the stomach.
e. Monosaccharides are absorbed through the intestinal wad.
Explanation:
The monosaccharides are produced last in the digestion process described above because it is the absorption of energy (glucose) into the body. It is at this stage that carbohydrate is metabolized within cells to create fuel. Then in the presence of oxygen, this important glucose breaks down into carbon dioxide and water, and finally energy is released as a byproduct.

examples when demand may have got out of a hand?
Answer:
Recall, that we represent economic laws and theory using models; in this case we can use a demand schedule or a demand curve to illustrate the Law of Demand. The demand schedule shows the combinations of price and quantity demanded of apples in a table format. The graphical representation of the demand schedule is called the demand curve
When graphing the demand curve, price goes on the vertical axis and quantity demanded goes on the horizontal axis. A helpful hint when labeling the axes is to remember that since P is a tall letter, it goes on the vertical axis. Another hint when graphing the demand curve is to remember that demand descends.
The demand curve reflects our marginal benefit and thus our willingness to pay for additional amounts of a good. It makes sense that our marginal benefit, or willingness to pay for a good, would decline as we consume additional units because we get less additional satisfaction from each successive unit consumed. For example, at lunch time you decide to buy pizza by-the-piece. You'd be willing to pay a lot for that first piece to satisfy your hunger. But what about the second piece? Perhaps a little less. If we keep considering each additional piece, we might ask what the 3rd, 4th or 5th piece is worth to you. By that point, you'd be willing to pay less, perhaps much less. The law of demand and our models illustrate this behavior.
Explanation:
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.
Novak Corp. developed the following information about its inventories in applying the lower of cost or market (LCM) basis in valuing inventories: Product Cost Market
A $139000 $146000
B 98000 93000
C 195000 198000
If Novak applies the LCM basis, the value of the inventory reported on the balance sheet would be:________
a. $442000
b. $432000
c. $437000
d. $427000
Answer: $427,000
Explanation:
Based on the Generally Accepted Accounting principles, to solve this question, the inventory have to be recorded based on the lower cost or net realizable value. This will therefore be:
A = $139,000
B = $93,000
C = $195,000
The value of the inventory reported on the balance sheet would be:
= $139,000 + $93,000 + $195,000
= $427,000
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
2. Computation for the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region using this formula
Break-even point in dollar sales for North region = Traceable fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio
Let plug in the formula
Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $60,000 / 0.3
Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $200,000
3. . Computation for the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.
Using this formula
Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = Traceable fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio
Let plug in the formula
Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $60,000 / 0.6
Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $100,000
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.To what three different audiences might you have to give a presentation? How would the presentation differ for each? Which one would be the most challeng- ing for you?
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.
Lawn Master Company, a manufacturer of riding lawn mowers, has a projected income for the coming year as follows: Sales $ 44,000,000 Operating expenses: Variable expenses $ 28,600,000 Fixed expenses 7,700,000 Total expenses 36,300,000 Operating profit $ 7,700,000 Required: 1.

Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.) 3. What is the breakeven point in sales dollars if the variable expenses increases by 9%
Answer:
Please see attached
Explanation:
• Break even point in sales dollars $22,000,000
• Required sales in dollars $48,150,000
• Break even point in sales dollars $34,010,600
See as attached, detailed solution to the questions above.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales $44,000,000
Variable expenses $ 28,600,000
Fixed expenses 7,700,000
To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 7,700,000 / [(44,000,000 - 28,600,000)/44,000,000]
Break-even point (dollars)= $22,000,000
Now, we incorporate the desired profit of $9,152,500
Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= (7,700,000 + 9,152,500) /0.35
Break-even point (dollars)= $48,150,000
Finally, the new break-even point in dollars:
Total variable cost= 28,600,000*1.09= 31,174,000
Break-even point (dollars)= 7,700,000 / [(44,000,000 - 31,174,000) / 44,000,000]
Break-even point (dollars)= 7,700,000 / 0.2915
Break-even point (dollars)= $26,415,094.34
Receivables are valued based on their ________.
a. fair value
b. estimated amount collectible
c. lower-of-cost-or-market value
d. historical cost
Answer:
b. estimated amount collectible
Explanation:
In Financial accounting, Receivables are also known as Account Receivable. Receivables are considered to be a current asset because it is the payment a business firm would receive from its customers for goods purchased or services taken on credit. Also, accounts receivable are recorded in the current assets section of the balance sheet because they add value to a business firm.
Generally, current assets are considered to be liquid because they are listed on the balance sheet in the order (descending) in which they are expected to turn or be converted to cash within a relatively short term period.
Hence, receivables are valued based on their estimated amount collectible from customers for the goods and services taken.
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
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
Southern Imports is an all-equity firm with a beta of 1.32. The firm is considering a new project that entails less risk than its current operations and thus management feels that the firm's beta should be lowered by .18 when assigning a discount rate to this project. The market rate of return is 9.4 percent and the risk-free rate is 2.8 percent. What discount rate should be assigned to this project
Answer:
The answer is "10.32%".
Explanation:
The actual beta firm =1.32
if new beta reduced by 1.8
beta firm= 1.14(1.32-1.8)
market return= 9.4%
risk-free return=2.8%
formula:
[tex]\to \text{Discount rate= risk} +beta \times (return-risk)}[/tex]
[tex]=2.8+1.14(9.4-2.8)\\\\=10.32%[/tex]
