You have a tax basis of ​$ and a useful life of five years and no salvage value. Provide a depreciation schedule ​(dk for k1​5) for ​% declining balance with switchover to straight line. Specify the year to switchover. Determine the depreciation amounts using the ​% declining balance and​ straight-line methods and BV amounts for each year
Answer:
the numbers are missing, so I will use another question as an example:
the asset's cost is $100,000useful life is 5 yearsno salvage value150% declining balancestraight line depreciation = $100,000 / 5 = $20,000
150% declining balance depreciation year 1 = 1.5 x $100,000 x 1/5 = $30,000, since it is higher than straight line we will use declining balance
book value at end of year 1 = $100,000 - $30,000 = $70,000
straight line deprecation = $70,000 / 4 = $17,500
150% declining balance depreciation year 2 = 1.5 x $70,000 x 1/5 = $28,000, since it is higher than straight line we will use declining balance
book value at end of year 2 = $70,000 - $28,000 = $42,000
straight line depreciation = $42,000 / 3 = $14,000, since it is higher than declining balance we will use straight line ⇒ switchover year
150% declining balance depreciation year 3 = 1.5 x $42,000 x 1/5 = $12,600
book value at end of year 3 = $42,000 - $14,000 = $28,000
depreciation year 4 = $14,000 (straight line)
book value at end of year 4 = $28,000 - $14,000 = $14,000
depreciation year 5 = $14,000 (straight line)
book value at end of year 5 = $14,000 - $14,000 = $0
At year-end 2018, Marvel Company total assets were $4.5 million, and its accounts payable were $850,000. Sales, which in 2018 were $5.5 million, are expected to increase by 25% in 2019. Total assets and accounts payable are proportional to sales, and that relationship will be maintained. Marvel typically uses no current liabilities other than accounts payable. Common stock amounted to $ 2.25 million in 2018, and retained earnings were $150,000. Marvel has arranged to sell $25,000 of new common stock in 2019 to meet some of its financing needs. The remainder of its financing needs will be met by issuing new long-term debt at the end of 2019. (Because the debt is added at the end of the year, there will be no additional interest expense due to the new debt.) Its net profit margin on sales is 2.5%, and 55% of earnings will be paid out as dividends.
Required:
a. What were Marvel's total long-term debt and total liabilities in 2018?
b. How much new long-term debt financing will be needed in 2019?
Answer:
Marvel Company
a. Marvel's total long-term debt in 2018 = $1,250,000
a2. Marvel's total liabilities = $2,100,000 ($850,000 +$1,250,000)
b. New long-term debt financing needed in 2019 = $810,156
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Year-end 2018:
Total assets = $4.5 million
Accounts payable $850,000
Sales = $5.5 million
Common Stock = $2.25 million
Retained Earnings = $150,000
Long-term debt = Total assets Minus (Accounts payable + Equity)
= $4,500,000 - ($850,000 + 2,250,000 + 150,000)
= $1,250,000
Year 2019:
Sales = $6,875,000 ($5.5 million * 1.25)
Net profit margin on sales = $171,875 (2.5% * $6,875,000)
Dividends = 55% of earnings = $94,531 (55% * $171,875)
Retained earnings for the year = $77,344
Retained earnings for 2018: 150,000
Retained earnings, 2019: $227,344
Common Stock = $2,275,000 ($2,250,000 + $25,000)
Total equity = $2,502,344 ($2,250,000 + 227,344)
Total assets = $5,625,000 ($4.5 million * 1.25)
Accounts payable = $1,062,500 ($850,000 * 1.25)
Long-term debt = Total Assets - (Total equity + Accounts Payable)
= $5,625,000 - ($2,502,344 + 1,062,500)
= $2,060,156
Increase in long-term debt = $810,156 ($2,060,156 - $1,250,000)
The lowest amount a manufacturer can pay factory workers is an example of
an incentive.
a price floor.
a price ceiling.
an elastic service.
Answer:
The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.
Explanation:
The correct answer to this question is the price floor.
The Price floor is the lowest amount that is imposed by the government or group-imposed lowest price limit for a product or service. The government uses the price floor to keep prices at a certain level from going to low. So price floors for workers set by the government that the employer should not pay less than the set amount.
while other options are not correct because::
The price ceiling is the high amount set by the government or the by other groups for a product or service.
An incentive is an amount or something that can be given to employees or someone for motivation or encouraging them to do something.
An elastic service is given by amazon to develop and run the application with different tools etc.
Answer:price floor

Daily demand for a certain product is normally distributed with a mean of 138 and a standard deviation of 13. The supplier is reliable and maintains a constant lead time of 7 days. The cost of placing an order is $17 and the cost of holding inventory is $0.40 per unit per year. There are no stock-out costs, and unfilled orders are filled as soon as the order arrives. Assume sales occur over 358 days of the year.
Your goal here is to find the order quantity and reorder point to satisfy a 73 percent probability of not stocking out during the lead time.
a. To manage inventory, the company is using
Continuous review system
Periodic review system
b. Find the order quantity. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Order quantity books
c. Find the reorder point. (Use Excel's NORMSINV() function to find the correct critical value for the given α-level. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round "z" value to 2 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole number.)
Reorder point
Answer:
A. Continuous review system
B. Order quantity = 2,049 Books
C. Reorder point=987
Explanation:
a. To manage inventory, the company is using CONTINUOUS REVIEW SYSTEM
b. Calculation to find the order quality
Using this formula
Order quantity = √((2DS)/H)
Let plug in the morning
Order quantity=√ ((2 x 49,404 x 17)/0.40)
Order quantity = 2,049 Books
Calculation for annual demand
Annual demand=138*358 days
Annual demand=49,404
C. Calculation for reorder point
First step is to find the σL
73 % S.L. - z = 0.613
Using this formula to find the σL
σL = (Lσ^2)
Let plug in the formula
σL=√(7(13)^2)
σL= 34.39
Second step is to find the Reorder point using this formula
Reorder point = d bar(L) + zσL
Let plug in the formula
Reorder point = (138)(7) + 0.613(34.39)
Reorder point = 966+21
Reorder point=987

Luzadis Company makes furniture using the latest automated technology. The company uses a job-order costing system and applies manufacturing overhead cost to products on the basis of machine-hours. The predetermined overhead rate was based on a cost formula that estimates $900,000 of total manufacturing overhead for an estimated activity level of 75,000 machine-hours.
During the year, a large quantity of furniture on the market resulted in cutting back production and a buildup of furniture in the company’s warehouse. The company’s cost records revealed the following actual cost and operating data for the year:
Machine-hours 76,000
Manufacturing overhead cost $637,000
Inventories at year-end:
Raw materials $20,000
Work in process (includes overhead applied of $36,480) $115,800
Finished goods (includes overhead applied of $91,200) $289,500
Cost of goods sold (includes overhead applied of $480,320) $1,524,700
Required:
a. Compute the underapplied or overapplied overhead.
b. Assume that the company closes any underapplied or overapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold. Prepare the appropriate journal entry. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
c. Assume that the company allocates any underapplied or over appliedoverhead proportionally to Work in Process, Finished Goods, and Cost of Goods Sold. Prepare the appropriate journal entry. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
d. How much higher or lower will net operating income be if the underapplied or overapplied overhead is allocated to Work in Process, Finished Goods, and Cost of Goods Sold rather than being closed to Cost of Goods Sold?
Answer:
Please solution below
Explanation:
a. Compute the under applied or over applied overhead
First, we need to determine the predetermined overhead rate.
Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total manufacturing overhead / Estimated total machine hours
= $900,000 / 75,000 hours
= $12.0 per hour
But;
Actual manufacturing overhead = $637,000
Manufacturing overhead applied to work in process during the year = 76,000 actual MHs × $12.00 per MH $912,000
Over applied overhead cost = $275,000
b. Journal entry
Cost of goods sold Dr $275,000
To Manufacturing over head applied Cr $275,000
c. The over applied over head would be allocated using the following percentages;
Overhead applied during the year ;
Work in process = $36,480. 6%
Finished goods = $91,200. 15%
Cost of goods sold = $480,320 79%
Total = $608,000 100%
The entry to record the allocation of the overhead applied would be ;
Work in process [6% × $275,000] = $16,500
Finished goods [15% × $275,000] = $41,250
Cost of goods sold [79% × $275,000] = $217,250
d. Comparing the two method;
Cost of goods sold if the over applied overhead is closed to the cost of goods sold [$1,524,700 + $275,000] = $1,799,700
Cost of goods sold if the overhead applied is closed to work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold = [$1,524,700 + $217,250] =
$1,741,950
Difference in cost of goods sold = $57,750

Construct the balance sheet for the new corporation if the merger is treated as a purchase for accounting purposes. The market value of All Gold Mining's fixed assets is $7,510; the market values for current and other assets are the same as the book values. Assume that Silver Enterprises issues $14,660 in new long-term dept to finance the acquisition.
Answer:
Silver Enterprises Post Merger Balance Sheet
Current Assets 12,920 Current liabilities 10,460
Other Asset 4,480 Long-term debt 19,770
Net Fixed Asset 24,810 Equity 17,450
Goodwill 5,470
$47,880 $47,680
Explanation:
Current assets = 10,000 + 2,920 = 12,920
Other assets = 3,100 + 1,380 = 4,480
Current liabilities = 7,840 + 2,620 = 10,460
Net fixed assets = 17,300 + 7,510= 24,810
Long-term debt = 5,110 + 14,660 = 19,770
Equity = $17,450

In early 2016, the same Germany machinery company has interest from four prospective clients from emerging markets: Indonesia, Brazil, Russia, and South Africa. They all want to buy ten machines, but the factory can only produce ten in time. Therefore, the company has to choose only one client. Given the volatility of the domestic currencies of the four prospective clients, the CFO would like to choose the client which is least likely to cancel the order due to currency volatility. The invoice comes due on June 30, 2016. According to volatility alone, which prospective client would be most likely to cancel the order?
Answer:
Brazil
Explanation:
According to the picture below, Brazilian real is the currency that has the lowers currency volatility, its spot is 4.0685, and its forward is 4.1820. These values are way lower than the values of the other three currencies, and for this reason, the CFO should choose the Brazilian client, clearly.
Indonesia is the country that is most likely to cancel this order. This is due to its high volatility.
Following the volatility chart that is attached to this question we can clearly spot that Indonesia has the most likelihood to cancel the order.
The volatility of the currency of the country Indonesia is shown to be high and this high volatility is very much going to have an impact on trade.
When there is a weakness in the currency of a nation, the cost of import would go up.

What is the future value in three years of the present value you computed in (a)? c. Suppose you deposit the cash flows in a bank account that pays interest per year. What is the balance in the account at the end of each of the next three years (after your deposit is made)? How does the final bank balance compare with your answer in (b)?
Answer:
the question is missing the numbers, so I looked for a similar question:
Suppose you receive $100 at the end of each year for the next three years. a. If the interest rate is 8%, what is the present value of these cash flows? (Answer: $257) b. What is the future value in three years of the present value you computed in (a)? (Answer: $324.61) c. Suppose you deposit the cash flows in a bank account that pays 8% interest per year. What is the balance in the account at the end of each of the next three years (after your deposit is made)? How does the final bank balance compare with your answer in (b)?
a) PV = $100/1.08 + $100/1.08² + $100/1.08³ = $257.71
b) FV = $257.71 x (1 + 8%)³ = $324.64
c) FV = ($100 x 1.08²) + ($100 x 1.08) + $100 = $324.64
it is exactly the same as the answer for (b)

5. Determine the amount of sales (units) that would be necessary under the proposed program to realize the $15,000,000 of income from operations that were earned in the current year.
6. Determine the maximum income from operations possible with the expanded plant.
7. If the proposal is accepted and sales remain at the current level, what will the income or loss from operations be for the following year?
8. Based on the data given, would you recommend accepting the proposal?
a. In favor of the proposal because of the reduction in break-even point.
b. In favor of the proposal because of the possibility of increasing income from operations.
c. In favor of the proposal because of the increase in break-even point.
d. Reject the proposal because if future sales remain at the current level, the income from operations will increase.
e. Reject the proposal because the sales necessary to maintain the current income from operations would be below the current year sales.
Answer:
1. Determine the total variable costs and the total fixed costs for the current year.
Total variable costs = $17,500,000 + $3,000,000 + $1,500,000 = $22,000,000 Total fixed costs = $10,000,0002. Determine (a) the unit variable cost and (b) the unit contribution margin for the current year.
Unit variable cost = $22,000,000 / 500,000 = $44 Unit contribution margin = $94 - $44 = $503. Compute the break-even sales (units) for the current year.
break even point = $10,000,000 / $50 = 200,000 units4. Compute the break-even sales (units) under the proposed program for the following year.
break even point = $11,800,000 / $50 = 236,000 units5. Determine the amount of sales (units) that would be necessary under the proposed program to realize the $15,000,000 of income from operations that were earned in the current year.
units = ($11,800,000 + $15,000,000) / $50 = 536,000 units6. Determine the maximum income from operations possible with the expanded plant.
total units sold 500,000 + 40,000 = 540,000total contribution margin = 540,000 x $50 = $27,000,000operating income = $27,000,000 - $11,800,000 = $15,200,0007. If the proposal is accepted and sales remain at the current level, what will the income or loss from operations be for the following year?
operating income = (500,000 x $50) - $11,800,000 = $13,200,000represents a decrease of $15,000,000 - $13,200,000 = $1,800,0008. Based on the data given, would you recommend accepting the proposal?
b. In favor of the proposal because of the possibility of increasing income from operations.A company issues $50 million of bonds at par on January 1, 2018. The bonds pay 10% interest semi-annually on 12/31 and 6/30 and mature in 20 years. The journal entry when the bonds are sold is:

Mcmurtry Corporation sells a product for $250 per unit. The product's current sales are 13,600 units and its break-even sales are 10,608 units. The margin of safety as a percentage of sales is closest to:
Answer:
22%
Explanation:
Margin of Safety is the amount by which sales can fall before making a loss.
Margin of Safety = Expected Sales - Break-even Sales ÷ Expected Sales
= (13,600 - 10,608) ÷ 13,600
= 0.22 or 22%

A common step in the testing for accounts payable is to test subsequent disbursements for improper/proper inclusion/exclusion in year-end accounts payable CONCEPT REVIEW A common way to test accounts payable is to examine the check register after period end and make selections for testing. Items are selected and then examined for detail. A determination is then made to conclude whether the amount should have been a liability as of year-end and, if so, if it was recorded as such
1. When searching for unrecorded liabilities, the auditors consider transactions recorded__________year end.
2. Accounts payable __________can be mailed to vendors from whom substantial purchases have been made.
3. To gain overall assurance as to the reasonableness of accounts payable, the auditor may consider _________.
4. When auditors find unrecorded liabilities, before adjusting they must consider __________.
5 Auditiors need to consider_______ terms for determining ownership and whether a liability should be recorded.
Answer:
1. When searching for unrecorded liabilities, the auditors consider transactions recorded after year end.
Auditors consider transactions recorded after year end to determine if it was supposed to be recorded in the current period.
2. Accounts payable confirmation can be mailed to vendors from whom substantial purchases have been made.
As a way to keep a document trail, creditors from whom substantial goods were bought from can be mailed a confirmation.
3. To gain overall assurance as to the reasonableness of accounts payable, the auditor may consider ratios.
Ratios such as the Payables turnover can be used to evaluate the reasonableness of Accounts payable.
4. When auditors find unrecorded liabilities, before adjusting they must consider materiality.
They must consider if the adjustment is material or significant enough to record.
5 Auditiors need to consider shipping terms terms for determining ownership and whether a liability should be recorded.
Shipping terms need to be considered because they can tell who owns goods in transit and therefore if a liability is needed for them. Shipping terms such as FOB Shipping point mean that the business incurs the liability as soon as the seller ships the goods.

Determine the selling price PV, per $1,000 maturity value, of the bond. HINT [See Example 8.] (Assume twice-yearly interest payments. Do not round those payments to the nearest cent. Round your selling price PV to the nearest cent.) 20-year, 4.225% bond, with a yield of 4.23%
Answer:
$999.60
Explanation:
For computing the selling price i.e. present value we have to use the present value function i.e. shown below:
Given that
NPER = 20 × 2 = 40
PMT = $1,000 × 4.225% ÷ 2 = $21.125
RATE = 4.23% ÷ 2 = 2.115%
FV = $1,000
the formula is shown below:
PV =-PV(RATE;NPER;PMTFV;TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the present value is $999.60
SY Manufacturers (SYM) is producing T-shirts in three colors: red, blue, and white. The monthly demand for each color is 3,487 units. Each shirt requires 0.75 pound of raw cotton that is imported from the Luft-Geshfet-Textile (LGT) Company in Brazil. The purchasing price per pound is $1.55 (paid only when the cotton arrives at SYM's facilities) and transportation cost by sea is $0.70 per pound. The traveling time from LGT’s facility in Brazil to the SYM facility in the United States is two weeks. The cost of placing a cotton order, by SYM, is $186 and the annual interest rate that SYM is facing is 32 percent of total cost per pound.
a. What is the optimal order quantity of cotton? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Optimal order quantity pounds
b. How frequently should the company order cotton? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Company orders once every months
c. Assuming that the first order is needed on 1-Jul, when should SYM place the order?
17-Jun
1-Jul
15-Jul
d. How many orders will SYM place during the next year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Number of orders times
e. What is the resulting annual holding cost? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Annual holding cost $ per year
f. What is the resulting annual ordering cost?
Annual ordering cost $
g. If the annual interest cost is only 5 percent, how will it affect the annual number of orders, the optimal batch size, and the average inventory?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The optimal order quantity can be calculated as:
= √2DS/H
where
D = 3 × 12 × 3487 × 0. 75
= 94149
Total cost incurred during purchase
= $1.55 + $0.70
= $2.25
Setup cost (S) = $186
Holding cost
= 32% × $2.25
= 0.32 × $2.25
= $0.72
Optimal order quantity
= √(2 × 94149 × 186)/0.72
= 6974.50
b. This will be calculated as:
Annual demand / EOQ
= 94149/6974.50
= 13.50
The company should order cotton 13.5 times per year.
c. Since the first order is needed on 1-July and lead time is 2 weeks, SYM should place the order before 17th June.
d. This will be:
= Annual demand / EOQ
= 94149/6974.50
= 13.5 orders
e. The resulting annual holding cost will be:
= 0.72 × (6974.50/2)
= 0.72 × 3487.25
= $2510.82
f. The resulting annual ordering will be:
= 94149/6974.50 × $186
= 13.5 × $186
= $2511
A check register shows a balance of $152.34. The bank statement shows that a check for $75.00 deposited by the account owner was drawn against insufficient funds and was returned. A charge for $2.00 was also deducted by the bank because of the return. Compute the adjusted cash balance of the check register.
Answer:
$150.34
Explanation:
The $75 check has been drawn against insufficient funds and has been returned so this check won't be included in the adjusted cash balance of the check register.
A charge for $2.0 will be deducted from the balance shown by the cash register above to calculate the adjusted cash balance of the check register.
Adjusted cash balance of the check register = $152.34 - $2
Adjusted cash balance of the check register = $150.34

You are invested in two hedge funds. The probability that hedge fund Alpha generates positive returns in any given year is 60%. The probability that hedge fund Omega generates positive returns in any given year is 70%. Assume the returns are independent. What is the probability that both funds generate positive returns in a given year? What is the probability that both funds lose money?
Answer:
42% and 12%
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For Alpha Fund
Positive return = 60%
Lose money is
= 1 - 0.60
= 40%
For Omega Fund
Positive return = 70%
Lose money is
= 1 - 0.70
= 0.30
Also the returns are non-dependent
Now the positive return is
= 60% × 70
= 42%
And, the probability of lose money is
= 40% × 30%
= 12%
