Answer:current balance of retained earnings=$206,000
Explanation:
Net Retained Earnings = Total Income since Incorporation−
Total Cash Dividend Paid− Value of Stock Dividend distributed
Where
cash dividends distributed among the stakeholders= $55,000
value of stock dividends distributed = $31,000
Total Dividend Distributed = $86,000
Net Retained Earnings = $292,000 -($86,000)=$206,000

Every good paragraph follows some logical patterns to convey the intended information to the readers.
Custom Homebuilders (CH) designs and constructs high-end homes on large lots owned by customers. CH has developed several formulas, which it uses to quote jobs. These include costs for materials, labor, and other costs. These estimates are also dependent on the region of the country a particular customer lives. The following are the cost estimates for one region in the Midwest. Administrative costs $ 20,000 Building costs – per square foot (basic) $ 90 Building costs – per square foot (moderate) $ 150 Building costs – per square foot (luxury) $ 225 Appliances (basic) $ 15,000 Appliances (moderate) $ 25,000 Appliances (luxury) $ 45,000 Utilities costs (if required) $ 40,000 Required: A customer has expressed interest in having CH build a moderate, 3,000 square-foot home on a vacant lot, which does not have utilities. Based on the engineering estimates above, what will such a house cost to build?
Answer:
$495,000
Explanation:
Based on the engineering estimates above cost to build such a house can be calculated by just adding the cost incurring in building the house as a moderate house.
The cost of a moderate 3000 square foot house
Administrative Cost = 20,000
Building Cost (150x3000) = 450,000
Appliances = 25,000
Utilities Cost = NIL
Total Cost = 495,000
For a given market, suppose that the quantity demanded is 240 units if the price is $20 and the quantity demanded is 275 units if the price is $16. In addition, the quantity supplied is 240 units if the price is $20 and the quantity supplied is 200 units if the price is $16. If the actual price in the market is $16 then a shortage of 75 units would exist and price would rise.
a. Trueb. False
Answer:
true
Explanation:
Equilibrium is the point at which quantity supplied equals quantity demanded. Above equilibrium price, there would be excess supply and below equilibrium price, there would be excess demanded and a shortage.
Equilibrium price is $20 units and equilibrium quantity s 240 units
When price is $16, demand is 275 and supply is 200 units
Shortage = 275 - 200 = 75 units
Suppose your firm receives a million order on the last day of the year. You fill the order with million worth of inventory. The customer picks up the entire order the same day and pays million up front in cash; you also issue a bill for the customer to pay the remaining balance of million within 40 days. Suppose your firm's tax rate is (i.e., ignore taxes). Determine the consequences of this transaction for each of the following:
a. Revenues
b. Earnings
c. Receivables
Answer:
a. Revenues - These will increase by $5 million to represent the entire value of the order.
b. Earnings. - Increase by $3 million
Earnings in this case are revenue less the cost of inventory which will be;
= 5 - 2
= $3 million
c. Receivables - Increase by $4 million
The customer paid $1 million upfront which means that they still owe $4 million out of the $5 million. This will go to the receivables account to show that the customer owes the business.
Below is an incomplete contribution margin income statement for Barry's Coffee Cakes. Use this information to answer the following questions. BARRY'S COFFEE CAKES Contribution Margin Income Statement 20,000 units 25,000 units Total Total Per Unit Percents of Sales Sales revenue $ 150,000 Less: Variable costs 50,000 Contribution margin 100,000 Less: Fixed costs 30,000 Net operating income $ 70,000 Knowledge Check 01 What is the unit contribution margin
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units sold: 20,000 or 25,000 is not clear.
Sales revenue $ 150,000
Less: Variable costs 50,000
Contribution margin 100,000
To calculate the unitary contribution margin, we need to use the following formula:
Unitary contribution margin= total contribution margin / number of untis
For 20,000 units:
Unitary contribution margin= 100,000/20,000= $5
For 25,000 units:
Unitary contribution margin= 100,000/25,000= $4
Cash flows during the first year of operations for the Harman-Kardon Consulting Company were as follows: Cash collected from customers, $340,000; Cash paid for rent, $40,000; Cash paid to employees for services rendered during the year, $120,000; Cash paid for utilities, $50,000. In addition, you determine that customers owed the company $60,000 at the end of the year and no bad debts were anticipated. Also, the company owed the gas and electric company $2,000 at year-end, and the rent payment was for a two-year period. Calculate accrual net income for the year.
Answer:
$208,000
Explanation:
Net income= Revenue -expenses
The first step is to calculate the total revenue
Total revenue= credit sales+cash collected from customers
= $60,000 + $340,000
= $400,000
The total expenses can be calculated as follows
= Rent expense + salaries expense + utilities expense
= (40,000/2)+$120,000 + ($50,000 + $2,000)
= $20,000 + $120,000 + $52,000
= $192,000
Therefore the accrual net income for the year can be calculated as follows
= $400,000 - $192,000
= $208,000
Hence the accural net income for the year is $208,000
Which of the following is not a related party transaction? a) Acme Corporation leases office space to Norton Company. Mr. and Mrs. Norton own Norton Company and 65% of Acme Corporation's stock. b) BBD Inc. licenses a patent from Nugo Inc., which owns 82% of BBD's outstanding stock. c) Beth Teal pays $15,000 a year to her gardener, Ben. Beth is Ben's grandmother. d) All the transactions are between related parties.
Answer:
c) Beth Teal pays $15,000 a year to her gardener, Ben. Beth is Ben's grandmother.
Explanation:
A related party transaction is any business transaction that takes place between entities that share some type of common interest, e.g. a parent company leasing a factory to one of its subsidiaries. They are legal, but the potential for conflicts of interest exist. Following the example, if the lease price is higher than fair market price, then the transaction could be considered fraudulent. The SEC requires that publicly traded corporations disclose all related party transactions.
Verizox Company uses a job order cost system with manufacturing overhead applied to products based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the most recent year, the company estimated its manufacturing overhead cost at $179,450. Estimated direct labor cost was $444,000 for 18,500 hours. Actual costs for the most recent month are summarized here: Item Description Total Cost Direct labor (1,850 hours) $ 44,401 Indirect costs Indirect labor 2,470 Indirect materials 3,420 Factory rent 3,350 Factory supervision 4,780 Factory depreciation 5,690 Factory janitorial work 1,290 Factory insurance 1,750 General and administrative salaries 4,280 Selling expenses 5,430 Required: 1. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate. 2. Calculate the amount of applied manufacturing overhead. 3. Calculate actual manufacturing overhead costs. 4. Compute over- or underapplied overhead.
Answer:
See answers below
Explanation:
1 The predetermined overhead rate
= Estimated manufacturing overhead / Estimated direct labor hour
= $179,450 / 18,500 hours
= $9.7 per direct labor hour
2. The applied manufacturing overhead
= Actual direct labor hours × predetermined overhead rate per direct labor hour
= 1,850 hours × $9.7
= $17,945
3 Actual manufacturing overhead costs
Indirect labor 2,470 + Indirect materials 3,420 + Factory rent 3,350 + Factory supervision 4,780 + Factory depreciation 5,690 + Factory janitorial work + 1,290 + Factory insurance 1,750
Actual manufacturing overhead costs
= $21,000
4. Over or under applied overhead
= $21,000 - $17,945
= $3,055
Under applied overhead is $3,055

Sarjit Systems sold software to a customer for $176,000. As part of the contract, Sarjit promises to provide "free" technical support over the next six months. Sarjit sells the same software without technical support for $153,000 and a stand-alone six-month technical support contract for $27,000, so these products would sell for $180,000 if sold separately. Prepare Sarjit’s journal entry to record the sale of the software. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
DR Cash ..............................................................$ 176,000
CR Sales Revenue................................................................$149,600
CR Deferred Revenue..........................................................$26,400
Explanation:
Revenue should only be recorded when earned and as the 6 month technical support can be sold separately, it is revenue that has not be earned yet as the 6 months have not elapsed. This will therefore need to be recorded as Deferred revenue.
Sold alone, the revenue is more than when they are sold together so use the standalone price to find out the revenue when sold together by proportionality.
Sales revenue = 153,000/180,000 * 176,000
= $149,600
Deferred Revenue = 27,000/180,000 * 176,000
= $26,400

Previewing your reading material before class gives you:
a.) an outline to follow.
b.) background information on the topics to be covered in class.
c.) notes to recite before and after class.
d.) time to plan your reading time for assignments and tests.
The correct answer is B. Background information on the topics to be covered in class.
Explanation:
To preview one material or text involves to quickly look at the material (skim) and understand what the material is about. Moreover, one the general topic is identified the reader should try to remember background information or information he/she already knows about the topic. This helps the reader to better understand the material once it is read. Moreover, this strategy is ideal for class material because by previewing the materials students can activate their knowledge on the topic covered in the class (option B).
Dake Corporation's relevant range of activity is 4,500 units to 8,500 units. When it produces and sells 6,500 units, its average costs per unit are as follows: Average Cost per Unit Direct materials $ 6.40 Direct labor $ 3.50 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 2.00 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 2.20 Fixed selling expense $ 0.90 Fixed administrative expense $ 0.60 Sales commissions $ 0.70 Variable administrative expense $ 0.60 For financial reporting purposes, the total amount of product costs incurred to make 6,500 units is closest to:
Answer:
Product costs= $77,350
Explanation:
The product costs are those incurred directly into production. In this case, it is for financial purposes, therefore we take into account the variable costs. If it were for accounting purposes, it can incorporate the fixed overhead.
Product costs= direct material + direct labor + variable overhead
Product costs= 6,500*(6.4 + 3.5 + 2)
Product costs= $77,350
In emerging markets, consumer incomes and buying power are
decreasing
stable
fluctuating
increasing
Answer:increasing
Explanation:just took a quiz and got it correct
In emerging markets, consumer incomes and buying power are increasing. Thus, option D is correct.
After taxes, consumer income is the amount that can be deducted. It may also be characterized as a gain of wealth, particularly as a result of labor or investment. Individual income is referred to as personal income. Net income is what remains after all deductible taxes have been taken out.
If a consumer's income rose and the company sold typical things, business would likely grow. The firm will see a decline if a consumer's income drops. The converse is true if the company sells subpar items, like a cheap shop.
Therefore, option D is the ideal selection.

On April 1, the company retained an attorney for a flat monthly fee of $3,500. Payment for April legal services was made by the company on May 12. As of April 30, $1,932 of interest expense has accrued on a note payable. The full interest payment of $5,797 on the note is due on May 20. Total weekly salaries expense for all employees is $14,000. This amount is paid at the end of the day on Friday of each five-day workweek. April 30 falls on a Tuesday, which means that the employees had worked two days since the last payday. The next payday is May 3.
The above three separate situations require adjusting journal entries to prepare financial statements as of April 30. For each situation, present both the April 30 adjusting entry and the subsequent entry during May to record the payment of the accrued expenses. (Use 360 days a year. Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Tri Fecta, a partnership, had revenues of $378,000 in its first year of operations. The partnership has not collected on $47,000 of its sales and still owes $38,700 on $235,000 of merchandise it purchased. There was no inventory on hand at the end of the year. The partnership paid $28,100 in salaries. The partners invested $47,000 in the business and $26,000 was borrowed on a five-year note. The partnership paid $2,600 in interest that was the amount owed for the year and paid $8,900 for a two-year insurance policy on the first day of business. Ignore income taxes. Compute the cash balance at the end of the first year for Tri Fecta.
a) $332,110.b) $161,640.c) $166,290.d) $155,440.
Answer: $168,000
Explanation:
Cash balance at the end of the year = Cash Inflows - Cash outflows
Cash Outflows
= (Merchandise purchased - Account payables) + Salaries + Interest + Insurance
= (235,000 - 38,700) + 28,100 + 2,600 + 8,900
= $235,900
Cash Inflows
= (Sales - Accounts receivables) + Investment by partners + Amount borrowed
= (378,000 - 47,000) + 47,000 + 26,000
= $404,000
Cash Balance = $168,000

As chief financial officer, it is your responsibility to weigh financial pros and cons of the many investment opportunities developed by your company's research and development division. You are currently evaluating two competing 15-year projects that differ in several ways. Relative to your firm's current EPS, the first project is expected to generate above-average EPS during the first 5 years, average EPS during the second 5 years, and then below-average EPS in the last 5 years. The second project is expected to generate below-average EPS during the first 5 years, average EPS in the second 5 years, and then well-above-average EPS in the last 5 years. Is the choice obvious if you expect that the second investment will result in a larger overall earnings increase?
Given the goal of the firm, what issues will you consider before making a final decision?
Is the choice obvious if you expect that the second investment will result in a larger overall earnings increase?
Answer:
a) The choice is not obvious even if I expect that the second investment will result in a larger overall earnings increase. The volume and value of the cash flows are not disclosed in this instance. Earnings are not the same as cash flows.
b) The timing, volume, and cash flows are very important issues here. Because of the time value of money, the second choice with its larger overall earnings may not necessarily be the better choice. This is because its cash flows are delayed relative to the first choice.
c) However, since the consideration centers around the EPS (Earnings Per Share), the company's goal will be to grow the EPS. This goal favors the second choice that bears more increasing earnings year-on-year than the first choice.
Explanation:
a) Data and Checks:
1st Project:
During first 5 years, above-average EPS
During second 5 years, average EPS
During last 5 years, below-average EPS
2nd Project:
During first 5 years, below-average EPS
During second 5 years, average EPS
During last 5 years, well-above average EPS

Several financing alternatives have been offered by Danning: (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
1. Pay $1,210,000 in cash immediately.
2. Pay $471,000 immediately and the remainder in 10 annual installments of $95,000, with the first installment due in one year.
3. Make 10 annual installments of $157,000 with the first payment due immediately.
4. Make one lump-sum payment of $1,740,000 five years from date of purchase.
Required:
Determine the best alternative for Harding, assuming that Harding can borrow funds at a 7% interest rate. (Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.)
Answer:
The best alternative is alternative 2.
PV = $1138240.246 rounded off to $1138240
Explanation:
To determine the best alternative, we need to find the present value of each alternative and the alternative with the lowest present value will be the best one.
To calculate the present value of a single sum, we will use the normal present value formula,
PV = Future Value / (1+r)^t
Where,
r is the discount ratet is the time in periodsTo calculate the present value of alternative with equal payments over a period of time with same intervals, we will use the present value of annuity formula which is attached.
The present value of alternative 1 is already known.
The present value of alternative 2 will be calculated using the present value of annuity ordinary formula as the payments of 95000 are made at the end of each period.
PV = 471000 + 95000 * [( 1 - (1+0.07)^-10) / 0.07]
PV = $1138240.246 rounded off to $1138240
The present value of alternative 3 will be calculated using the present value of annuity due formula as the payments of 157000 are made at the start of each period.
PV = 157000 * [( 1 - (1+0.07)^-10) / 0.07] * (1+0.07)
PV = $1179891.463 rounded off to $1179891
The present value of alternative 4 will be calculated using the present value
of the sum formula,
PV = 1740000 / (1+0.07)^5
PV = $1240595.952 rounded off to $1240596
The best alternative is alternative 2.
Suppose your employer offers you a choice between a bonus and shares of the company's stock. Whichever one you choose will be awarded today. The stock is currently trading at per share. a. If you receive the stock bonus and you are free to trade it, which form of the bonus should you choose? What is its value? b. If you receive the stock bonus and you are required to hold it for at least one year, what can you say about the value of the stock bonus now? What will your decision depend on?
Answer:
the question in incomplete:
Suppose your employer offers you a choice between a $5000 bonus and 100 shares of the company stock. Whichever one you choose will be awarded today. The stock is currently trading for $63 per share.
a. If you receive the stock bonus and you are free to trade it, which form of the bonus should you choose? What is its value?
the value of the stock bonus is $6,300 while the cash bonus is only worth $5,000, therefore, I would choose the stock bonus.b. If you receive the stock bonus and you are required to hold it for at least one year, what can you say about the value of the stock bonus now? What will your decision depend on?
if you could sell the stocks today, then the stock bonus would be worth $6,300 but in one year, who knows. Since you work at the company you will be in a very good position to determine if the stock is priced correctly and how the price might change in 1 year. On the other hand, if you really need the money now, and you are not so sure about the future stock price, then the cash bonus might be better. Since the information is limited, I cannot tell which scenario would be best, because it depends on several variables.equirement 1.

The internal control feature of an imprest fund is that it ▼ clearly identifies the amount of money for which the fund custodian is responsible.
Explanation:
An imprest fund is the fixed cash set aside for incidental and usually small daily expenses in an organization. The fund is controlled by an assigned custodian, sometimes called the petty cashier, who has the authority to make payments. The imprest fund depends on an allocated amount called "the float" and the accounting system for this fund is called the imprest system. The imprest system operates on a cash basis.

The indirect labor can be assigned to two different activities as follows: Activity Budgeted Activity Cost Activity Base Production control $237,000 Number of production runs Materials handling 270,000 Number of moves Total $507,000 The activity-base usage quantities and units produced for the two products follow: Number of Production Runs Number of Moves Direct Labor Hours-Cutting Direct Labor Hours-Finishing Units Produced Snowboards 430 5,000 4,000 2,000 6,000 Skis 70 2,500 2,000 4,000 6,000 Total 500 7,500 6,000 6,000 12,000 Required: 1. Determine the factory overhead rates under the multiple production department rate method. Assume that indirect labor is associated with the production departments, so that the total factory overhead is $315,000 and $540,000 for the Cutting and Finishing departments, respectively. Round per unit amounts to the nearest whole cent.
Answer:
Cutting department = $52.50
Finishing department = $90.00
Explanation:
The computation of factory overhead rates under the multiple production department rate method is shown below:-
For cutting department
= Overhead cost ÷ Direct labor hour
= $315,000 ÷ 6,000
= $52.50
For Finishing department
= Overhead cost ÷ Direct labor hour
= $540,000 ÷ 6,000
= $90.00

(Amounts to be deducted should be indicated by a minus sign.)
Answer is given below
Explanation:
given data
Salaries payable = $6,500
Retained earnings = $55,000
Buildings = 63,000
Payable = 40,000
Prepaid rent = 7,500
Office supplies = 3,000
Merchandise inventory = 15,000
Land = 32,000
Accounts payable = 15,000
Accumulated depreciation Building = 6,000
Prepaid insurance = 4,000
Mortgages payable = 22,000
Accounts receivable = 9,000
Cash = 26,000
Common stock = 15,000
solution
Current Assets
Cash $26,000
Accounts Receivable $9,000
Merchandise inventory $15,800
Office Supplies $3,000
Prepaid Rent $7,500
Prepaid Insurance $4,000
Total Current Assets: $65,300
and
Property, Plant and Equipment
Buildings $63,000
Land $32,000
Accumulated Depreciation 6,000
Total PP&E = $101,000
so
Total Assets = $166,300
and
Liabilities
Current Liabilities
Salaries Payable $6,500
Accounts payable $15,000
Total Current Liabilities = $21,500
and
Long-Term Liabilities
Notes Payable $40,000
Mortgages Payable $22,000
Total Long-Term Liabilities = $62,000
