D. 4,000.00 favorable
Explanation:
The formula for variable overhead spending variance provided below gives a clue on deriving the correct option.
variable overhead spending variance=actual variable spending overhead-budgeted variable spending overhead.
$5450=$ 80,000-budgeted variable spending overhead
budgeted variable spending overhead=$80,000-$5450=$74550
standard overhead rate=budgeted variable spending overhead/Standard machine hours allowed for actual production
standard overhead rate=$74550 /3550=$21
variable overhead rate variance=( standard rate* Actual machine hrs)-(actual rate*Actual machine hrs)
actual rate=Actual variable manufacturing overhead costs incurred/Actual machine hours for the month=$80,000/4000=$20
variable overhead rate variance=($21*4000)-($20*4000)=$4000(favorable since actual is lower than standard,hence, cost savings)

On January 1, Year 1, Lowing Company acquired a patent from Generics Research Corporation for $3 million. The legal life of the patent is 20 years, but Lowing expects to use it for 5 years. Pawson Company has committed to purchase the patent from Lowing for $500,000 at the end of that 5-year period. Lowing uses the straight-line method to amortize intangible assets with finite useful lives. What is the amount of amortization expense each year
Answer:
patent amortization expense per year = $500,000 per year
Explanation:
patent amortization expense per year = depreciable value / useful life of the intangible asset
depreciable value = purchase cost - salvage value = $3,000,000 - $500,000 = $2,500,000useful life of the patent = 5 years (the legal life is different than the useful life)patent amortization expense per year = $2,500,000 / 5 years = $500,000 per year

Assume that Clark Electronics has a monopoly in the production and sale of a new device for detecting and destroying a computer virus. Clark Electronics currently incurs short-run losses, but it continues to operate.
a. What must be true for Clark to continue to operate in the short run?
b. Draw a correctly labeled graph, and show each of the following for Clark.
i. The profit-maximizing price and output
ii. Area of loss
C. Assume Clark is maximizing profit. What will happen to its total revenue if Clark raises its price? Explain.
d. If demand for the new device increases, explain what will happen to each of the following in the short run.
i. Profit-maximizing output
ii. Total cost
Solution :
c. MC=MR is the profit maximizing equilibrium point. The price rise beyond that is likely to raise the total revenue. But the total cost might increase equally or more then that to nullify or decrease the profit.
d. (i). The demand increase implies that the AR (demand) curve shifts rightwards. This will increase the equilibrium price.
(ii). Change in demand does not affect the total cost.
a. Monopoly might continue to produce in short earn even if its AR < AC. It continues to do so until shut down point. It refers that production continued until average revenue (AR) is greater than equal to the average variable cost (AVC). The monopoly is a market with a single seller.
This market's average revenue (AR) demand curve is above its marginal curve . The curves are downward sloping, illustrating price demand inverse relationship.
Equilibrium quantity : when the marginal revenue = marginal cost
Equilibrium price : equilibrium quantity corresponding price at AR (demand ) curve.
Budgeting, ethics, pharmaceutical company. Chris Jackson was recently promoted to Controller of Research and Development for BrisC or, a Fortune 500 pharmaceutical company that manufactures prescription drugs and nutritional supplements. The company’s total R& ; D cost for 2017 was expected (budgeted) to be $5 billion. During the company’s midyear budget review, Chris realized that current R& ; D expenditures were already at $3.5 billion, nearly 40% above the midyear target. At this current rate of expenditure, the R& ; D division was on track to exceed its total year-end budget by $2 billion!
In a meeting with CFO Ronald Meece later that day, Jackson delivered the bad news. Meece was both shocked and outraged that the R&D spending had gotten out of control. Meece wasn’t any more understanding when Jackson revealed that the excess cost was entirely related to research and development of a new drug, Vyacon, which was expected to go to market next year. The new drug would result in large profits for BrisCor, if the product could be approved by year-end. Meece had already announced his expectations of third-quarter earnings to Wall Street analysts. If the R&D expenditures weren’t reduced by the end of the third quarter, Meece was certain that the targets he had announced publicly would be missed and the company’s stock price would tumble. Meece instructed Jackson to make up the budget shortfall by the end of the third quarter using "whatever means necessary." Jackson was new to the controller’s position and wanted to make sure that Meece’s orders were followed. Jackson came up with the following ideas for making the third-quarter budgeted targets:
1. Stop all research and development efforts on the drug Vyacon until after year-end. This change would delay the drug going to market by at least 6 months. It is possible that in the meantime a BrisCor competitor could make it to market with a similar drug.
2. Sell off rights to the drug Martek. The company had not planned on doing this because, under current market conditions, it would get less than fair value. It would, however, result in a one-time gain that could offset the budget shortfall. Of course, all future profits from Martek would be lost. Capitalize some of the company’s R&D expenditures, reducing R&D expense on the income statement. This transaction would not be in accordance with GAAP, but Jackson thought it was justifiable because the Vyacon drug was going to market early next year. Jackson would argue that capitalizing R&D costs this year and expensing them next year would better match revenues and expenses.
3. Referring to the "Standards of Ethical Behavior for Practitioners of Management Accounting and Financial Management,"
4. Which of the preceding items are acceptable to use? Which are unacceptable? What would you recommend Jackson do?
Answer:
BrisCor
Budgeting, ethics, pharmaceutical company
a. Referring to the "Standards of Ethical Behavior for Practitioners of Management Accounting and Financial Management,"
none of the preceding items are acceptable to use.
b. I would recommend Jackson to go ahead with the R&D throughout the year to ensure that the drug Vyacon was successfully brought to the market next year before the competitor. He can try to keep to the budget going forward. A budget remains a budget and not the actual. Budget overrun can result. What is important is its effectiveness in achieving business goals.
Explanation:
The announced expectations of third-quarter earnings to Wall Street analysts should not prevent the R&D on the drug Vyacon from continuing, provided Jackson is certain that the envisaged success would be attained. They remain expectations. They are not the actual results of operations for the year. Even if the company's stock price would tumble, it would still recover after the drug had received approval and gone to market, raking in large profits. After all, the projected increase in R&D cost might not result, and the drug Vyacon could be fully developed and ready for the market before year-end, thereby not exceeding its budget.

Sue invested $5,000 in the ABC Limited Partnership and received a 10 percent interest in the partnership. The partnership had $20,000 of debt she is not responsible to repay because she is a limited partner. Sue is allocated a 10 percent share of the debt resulting in a tax basis of $7,000 and an at-risk amount of $5,000. During the year, ABC LP generated a ($70,000) loss. How much of Sue's loss is disallowed due to her tax basis or at-risk amount
Answer:
$2,000
Explanation:
Calculation for How much of the Sue's loss is disallowed due to her tax basis or at-risk amount
Based on the information given we were told that that Sue is been allocated a 10% of the debt which resulted in a tax basis of the amount of $7,000 as well as an at-risk amount of $5,000 which means that the amount that the Sue's loss will be disallowed due to her tax basis Amount or at-risk amount will be calculated as :
Using this formula
Disallowed Sue's loss=Tax basis-At-risk amount
Let plug in the formula
Disallowed Sue's loss=$7,000-$5,000
Disallowed Sue's loss=$2,000
Therefore How much of the Sue's loss is disallowed due to her tax basis or at-risk amount will be $2,000
Corporation is considering permanently shutting down a department that has an annual contribution margin of $32,000 and $64,000 in annual fixed costs. Of the fixed costs, $16,000 cannot be avoided. The effect of eliminating this department on Fabio's overall net operating income would be:________.
Answer:
an increase of $16,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what The effect of eliminating this department on Fabio's overall net operating income would be
Calculatation of Segment Margin
Contribution Margin 32,000.00
Less Avoidable Fixed Costs( 48,000.00)

You want to be a millionaire when you retire in 40 years. a. How much do you have to save each month if you can earn an annual return of 9.7 percent
Answer:
the amount that saved each month is $173.21
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that saved each month is as follows:
Here we use the PMT formula
Given that
NPER = 40 × 12 = 480
PMT = 9.7% ÷ 12 = 0.81%
PV = $0
FV = $1,000,000
The formula is shown below:
= PMT(RATE;NPER;PV;-FV;TYPE)
The future value comes in negative
After applying the above formula, the pmt is $173.21
Hence, the amount that saved each month is $173.21

Sraibn271 Corporation has two divisions: Domestic Division and Foreign Division. Last month, the corporation reported a contribution margin of $46,400 for Domestic Division. Foreign Division had a contribution margin ratio of 35% and its sales were $243,000. Net operating income for the Sraibn271 Corporation was $36,800 and traceable fixed expenses were $51,000.
(ID#19361)
What were Sraibn271 Corporation's common fixed expenses?
a) $131,450
b) $43,650
c) $51,000
d) $94,650
Answer: b) $43,650
Explanation:
Contribution margin of Domestic division + contribution margin of Foreign division - traceable fixed cost - common fixed cost = Net operating income for company
46,400 + (0.35 * 243,000) - 51,000 - Common = 36,800
80,450 - Common = 36,800
Common = 80,450 - 36,800
= $43,650

If an economist is a proponent of free trade amongst nations, what would be concerning about the proliferation of regional trade agreements?
A. The nations involved with regional trade agreements make the economies more independent from each other.
B. Regional trade agreements may restrict trade from outside of the regions in the agreement.
C. Terms of regional trade agreements often conflict with agreements of the Anti- Tariff Act.
Answer: B. Regional trade agreements may restrict trade from outside of the regions in the agreement.
Explanation:
Regional trade agreement is a form of trade agreement usually between two or more countries in a particular region which will allow for easy movement of goods between the borders of that particular region. Examples are North American Free Trade Agreement, European Union etc.
If an economist is a proponent of free trade amongst nations, the economist will be worried that the proliferation of regional trade agreements may restrict trade from outside of the regions in the agreement. This is because there'll only be free trade for the countries that are in that particular region.

What was the company’s 2015 change in net working capital, or NWC? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)
Net working capital $
Answer:
-$35
Explanation:
The computation of the change in net working capital is as follows:
Net working capital = current assets - current liabilities
For 2014,
net working capital i s
= ($3,135 - $1,545)
= $1,590
And,
for 2015,
net working capital is
= ($3,100 - $1,545)
= $1,555
So, the change in net working capital is
= ($1,555 - $1,590)
= -$35

What was ending inventory using the LIFO cost flow assumption under a periodic inventory system?
a. $880,000.
b. $640,000
c. $770,000.
d. $840,000
Answer:
b. $640,000
Explanation:
The computation of the ending inventory using the periodic inventory system is as follows:
But before that the ending inventory units is
= Beginning inventory units + purchased units - sold units
= 400 + 800 + 1,200 + 800 - 3,000
= 200 units
Now the ending inventory is
= 200 units × $3,200
= $640,000
hence, the ending inventory using the periodic inventory system is $640,000
Therefore the correct option is B
The last five annual dividends for MysteryCorp have been: $1.25, $1.38, $1.49, $1.60, and $1.69. Next year's dividend is expected to be $2. The current stock price is $199 per share. First, calculate the geometric average annual rate of growth based on the historical dividends (taking into account the previous five -- do *not* include next year's expected dividend in this calculation). Your estimate of RE, the cost of equity, is ________%.
Answer:
Re = 8.79%
Explanation:
annual growth rates:
($1.38 - $1.25) / $1.25 = 0.104
($1.49 - $1.38) / $1.38 = 0.078
($1.60 - $1.49) / $1.49 = 0.074
($1.69 - $1.60) / $1.60 = 0.056
geometric growth rate = ⁴√(1.104 x 1.078 x 1.074 x 1.056) - 1 = ⁴√1.34976 - 1 = 1.0779 - 1 = 0.0779 = 7.79%
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
$199 = $2 / (Re - 0.0779)
Re - 0.0779 = $2 / $199 = 0.01
Re = 0.01 + 0.0779 = 0.0879 = 8.79%
Which of the following statements about adjustments is correct? Multiple Choice Accrued wages are wages owed, but not yet paid, to employees; the accrued wages will need to be recorded with an adjusting entry that increases expenses. When making an adjustment to recognize supplies used in a period, total assets will not change. Deferral adjustments are used to update amounts that have been previously deferred on the income statement. Depreciation is an example of an accrual adjustment.
Answer:
The Statement that is correct about adjustments is:
Accrued wages are wages owed, but not yet paid, to employees; the accrued wages will need to be recorded with an adjusting entry that increases expenses.
Explanation:
Unpaid wages are adjusted with a debit to the Wages Expense account, which increases the account, and a credit to the Wages Payable account, which also increases the account by the same amount. The purpose of this accrual adjustment is to ensure that the amount reported as Wages Expense is the actual expense incurred for Wages, whether actually paid or not, and thus report the accurate net income and liabilities for the period.
