Explanation:
In this situation, you can perceive an unethical attitude from your manager, because he has taken credit for the extra work done by you before the president of the company.
So in this situation, it is ideal to have a dialogue between you and your manager in order to clarify the situation that has occurred. Because many managers can act dishonestly with their subordinates because many feel cornered to question the manager's attitudes for fear of reprisals.
It is also ideal that there is support from the rest of the team for a collaborator who is truly unfair because of a situation of abuse of authority, because this way bad behaviors are inhibited and an organizational climate is created, focused on transparency and ethical behaviors.

"The new owner thinks that inventories are excessive and can be lowered to the point where the current ratio is equal to the industry average, 2.5×, without affecting sales or net income. If inventories are sold and not replaced (thus reducing the current ratio to 2.5×), if the funds generated are used to reduce common equity (stock can be repurchased at book value), and if no other changes occur, by how much will the ROE change? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places."
Answer: ROE will increase by 5.54% if inventory is sold off
Explanation:
Return on Equity before the inventories are sold of;
= Net Income/ Equity
= 15,000 / 200,000
= 7.5%
Inventories sold off
Inventories were sold off such that Current ratio is now 2.5 and the funds reduced equity, the inventory sold is;
Current ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
2.5 = (Cash + Receivables + Inventories ) / (Accounts Payable + Other Current Liabilities)
2.5 = 10,000 + 50,000 + Inventories / 30,000 + 20,000
50,000 * 2.5 = 60,000 + Inventory
Inventory = $65,000
Inventory decreased by = 150,000 - 65,000
= $85,000
Equity therefore reduced by $85,000 as well to;
= 200,000 - 85,000
= $115,000
New Return on Equity = 15,000/115,000
= 13.04%
ROE will therefore change by;
= 13.04% - 7.5%

Assume the data to be approximately bell-shaped. Approximately 37% of all customer accounts have the average number of days between two values A and B. What is the value of B?
Answer:
B = 32.44 = 32 days
Explanation:
Given the following :
Mean number of days between when Bill was sent out and when payment was made = 31
Standard deviation = 3 days
Approximately 37% of all customer accounts have the average number of days between two values A and B. What is the value of B?
Interval A and B contains 37% of all customer accounts have average number of days with values :
Zscore of the (100-37)% / 2 at the extremes ; = 63%/2 = 0.315 ; from z table 0.315 = -0.48
Interval:
(-0.48 * sd) + mean and (0.48 * sd) + mean
(-0.48 * 3) + 31 and (0.48 * 3) + 31
-1. 44 + 31 and 1.44 + 31
29.56 and 32.44

A = 29.56 ; B = 32.44
Honda Motor Company is considering offering a rebate on its minivan, lowering the vehicle's price from to . The marketing group estimates that this rebate will increase sales over the next year from to vehicles. Suppose Honda's profit margin with the rebate is per vehicle. If the change in sales is the only consequence of this decision, what are its costs and benefits? Is it a good idea? Hint: View this question in terms of incremental profits.
Answer:
the numbers are missing, so I looked fro a similar question:
"Honda Motor Company is considering offering a $2,000 rebate on its minivan, lowering the vehicle's price from $30,000 to $28,000. The marketing group estimates that this rebate will increase sales over the next year from 40,000 to 55,000 vehicles. Suppose Honda's profit margin with the rebate is $6,000 per vehicle."
additional revenue generated by the rebate = 15,000 minivans x $6,000 = $90 million
the total economic cost of the rebate (money lost due to the rebate) = number of minivans sold without the rebate x rebate = 40,000 x $2,000 = $80 million, since the rebate includes all minivans, not just the additional 10,000 units.
Honda will gain = $90 - $80 = $10 million with the rebate, so it is a good idea.

6. A combination of stocks and bond portfolio offers Mike Spangler a rate of return of 8.5%. Considering the inflation rate of
395, what is the actual (real) rate of return?
O 7.33%
5.330
3.33%
Answer:
5.33%
Explanation:
From the question,
We have the following:
Nominal rate was put at = 8.5% = 0.085
Rate of inflation = 3% = 0.03
The formula for actual or real rate of return =
= [(1 + nominal rate)/(1+inflation rate)]-1
= (1 + 0.085/1+0.03)-1
= (1.085/1.03)-1
= 1.0533-1
= 0.0533 x 100
= 5.33%
In conclusion, the actual or real rate of return is 5.33 percent

Poland's Paints allocates overhead based on machine hours. Selected data for the most recent year follow. Estimated manufacturing overhead cost $238,900 Actual manufacturing overhead cost $244,100 Estimated machine hours 20,000 Actual machine hours 23,000 The estimates were made as of the beginning of the year, while the actual results were for the entire year. The amount of manufacturing overhead allocated for the year based on machine hours would have been _____ . (Round intermediary calculations to the nearest cent and final answer to the nearest dollar.) A. $274,850. B. $238,900. C. $244,100. D. $212,261.
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $274,850
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated manufacturing overhead cost $238,900
Estimated machine hours 20,000
Actual machine hours 23,000
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 238,900/20,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $11.945 per machine-hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 11.95*23,000
Allocated MOH= $274,850
Inspection costs at one of Ratulowski Corporation's factories are listed below: Units Produced Inspection Costs April 922 $ 17,912 May 983 $ 18,300 June 928 $ 17,965 July 912 $ 17,810 August 934 $ 17,994 September 919 $ 17,880 October 936 $ 18,032 November 876 $ 17,290 December 915 $ 17,838 Management believes that inspection cost is a mixed cost that depends on units produced. Using the high-low method, the estimate of the fixed component of inspection cost per month is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Fixed costs= $9,021.27
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
April 922 $ 17,912
May 983 $ 18,300
June 928 $ 17,965
July 912 $ 17,810
August 934 $ 17,994
September 919 $ 17,880
October 936 $ 18,032
November 876 $ 17,290
December 915 $ 17,838
To calculate the variable and fixed component, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (18,300 - 17,290) / (983 - 876)
Variable cost per unit= $9.4392
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 18,300 - (9.4392*983)
Fixed costs= $9,021.27
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 17,290 - (9.4392*876)
Fixed costs= $9,021.27
The cycle view of the supply chain is useful when considering operational decisions, because Select one: a. it focuses on processes that are external to the firm. b. processes are identified as either reactive or speculative. c. it specifies the roles and responsibilities of each member of the supply chain. d. it focuses on processes that are internal to the firm. e. it categorizes processes based on whether they are initiated in response to or in anticipation of customer orders.
Answer:
c. it specifies the roles and responsibilities of each member of the supply chain.
Explanation:
Supply chain management (SCM) can be defined as the effective and efficient management of the flow of goods and services, as well as all of the production processes involved in the transformation of raw materials into finished products that meet the insatiable want and need of the consumers. Generally, the supply chain management involves all the activities associated with planning, execution and supply of finished goods and services to the consumers.
The key principle of supply chain management can be best summed up as collaboration between multiple firms. These multiple firms include a company that is saddled with the responsibility of manufacturing, a wholesaler, and a retailer who typically sells the products to the customers or consumers.
Basically, these three (3) firms or individuals are required to collaborate with each other so as to meet the needs of the customers in a timely manner or fashion and at a fair price too.
Hence, the supply chain comprises of processes which are typically divided into four (4) cycles;
1. Customer order cycle: it involves the process of receiving an order from a customer, entry and fulfillment of orders.
2. Replenishment cycle: it includes receiving, entry and fulfillment of retail orders.
3. Manufacturing cycle: it includes the process of converting raw materials into finished products.
4. Procurement cycle: this includes shipping or receiving raw materials and production schedules.
The cycle view of the supply chain is useful when considering operational decisions, because it specifies the roles and responsibilities of each member of the supply chain.
Wenlowe Company had the following income statement for the most recent year:
Sales (17,000 units)........................ $357,000
Variable Expenses......................... 255,000
Contribution Margin. ... ................ $102,000
Fixed Expenses............ .................. 68,000
Net Operating Income . ................. $34,000
Given this data, the unit contribution margin was:__________
A. $2 per unit
B. $15 per unit
C. $6 per unit
D. $4 per unit
Answer:
C. $6 per unit
Explanation:
The contribution margin per unit is the amount contributed by each unit's sales revenue towards covering the fixed costs of the business after the variable cost per unit related to that product or business have been deducted. Thus, it is calculated as follows,
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
As we are given the total contribution margin and we know the number of units, we can calculate the unit contribution margin by dividing the total contribution by the number of units.
Unit contribution margin = 102000 / 17000
Unit contribution margin = $6
Skolnick Corporation has provided the following information: Cost per Unit Cost per Period Direct materials $ 5.40 Direct labor $ 3.60 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.70 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 112,000 Sales commissions $ 1.50 Variable administrative expense $ 0.50 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 32,200 Required: a. If 7,000 units are produced, what is the total amount of direct manufacturing cost incurred? (Do not round intermediate calculations.) b. If 7,000 units are produced, what is the total amount of indirect manufacturing costs incurred?
Answer:
Direct cost= $63,000
Indirect cost= $123,900
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials $ 5.40
Direct labor $ 3.60
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.70
Fixed manufacturing overhead $112,000
The overhead component of production is an indirect cost.
Direct cost= (5.4 + 3.6)*7,000= $63,000
Indirect cost= (1.7*7,000) + 112,000= $123,900

The Townson Manufacturing Company has gathered the following information for the month of September: 9,900 units in the beginning Work-in-Process Inventory (75% complete as to materials, 1/3 complete with respect to the conversion costs). 99,000 units were started into production. 66,900 units were completed and transferred to the next department. The ending Work-in-Process Inventory is complete as to materials but only 3/8 complete with respect to conversion costs. What are the equivalent units of production (EUPs) for the conversion costs in the month of September assuming Townson uses weighted-average process costing?
Answer: 82,650 units
Explanation:
Equivalent Units of Production (EUPs) for the conversion costs = Units transferred out + Percentage of completed Ending Inventory
Ending Inventory = Beginning Work-In-Process + Units started into production - Units transferred out
= 9,900 + 99,000 - 66,900
= 42,000 units
Equivalent Units of Production (EUPs) for the conversion costs = 66,900 + (3/8 * 42,000)
= 82,650 units
Cranford Company completed and transferred out 3,400 units in May 2020. There were 250 units in the Work-in-Process Inventory on May 31, 2020, 40% complete as to conversion costs and 100% complete as to materials. The month's charges for conversion costs and material costs were $17,850 and $13,140, respectively. There was no beginning inventory on May 1, 2020. What is the cost of the work transferred-out during May, assuming that Cranford uses weighted-average process costing
Answer:
$29,580
Explanation:
we must first determine equivalent units:
EUP for materials = 3,400 + 250 = 3,650 EUP
EUP for conversion costs = 3,400 + (250 x 40%) = 3,500 EUP
conversion cost per EUP = $17,850 / 3,500 EUP = $5.10
materials per EUP = $13,140 / 3,650 EUP = $3.60
total costs per EUP = $8.70
total units transferred out = 3,400
total cost of units transferred out = 3,400 x $8.70 = $29,580
Luther owns a bakery. He has been trying to obtain a long-term contact with the owner of Martha’s Tea Salons for some time. Luther starts a local advertising campaign on radio and television and in the newspaper. This advertising campaign is so persuasive that Martha decides to break the contract she has had with Harley’s Bakery so that she can patronize Luther’s bakery. Is Luther liable to Harley’s Baker for the tort of wrongful interference with a contractual relationship? Is Martha liable for this tort? Explain each part fully and completely.
Answer:
Even though Luther was trying to obtain a long term contract with Martha's Tea Salons for a while, he is not responsible for them breaking apart. In order for wrongful interference of a contractual obligation (which is a tort) to exist, Luther must have actively done something to break their contractual relationship. Luther started an advertising campaign, but that does not directly interfere with Martha's and Harley's relationship. It is like saying that because Coke has a lot of advertising, if any of Pepsi's clients breaks up with them, Coke would be responsible for it.
Martha cannot be liable for wrongful interference, she might be responsible for breaching her contract with Harley, but that is something else. Depending on the specific terms of Martha's contract with Harley, Martha may or may not have breached the contract. If the contract allowed Martha to terminate it at will, then there is no breach, but if the contract was supposed to last a specific amount of time, then the possibility of a breach really exists.
When the price of a bar of chocolate is $1.00, the quantity demanded is 100,000 bars. When the price rises to $1.50, the quantity demanded falls to 60,000 bars. Calculate the price elasticity of demand using the mid-point method. Instructions: Round your answers to two decimal places. If you are entering any negative numbers be sure to include a negative sign (-) in front of those numbers. a. Suppose the price increases from $1.00 to $1.50. The price elasticity of demand is: -1.25 . b. Suppose the price decreases from $1.50 to $1.00. The price elasticity of demand is: -1.25 .
Answer:
a. -1.25
b. -1.25
Explanation:
Price elasticity is used to measure the change in demand as a result of a change in price.
Formula is;
= % change in Quantity/ % change in Price
a. Suppose the price increases from $1.00 to $1.50. The price elasticity of demand is:
% change in Quantity using the midpoint formula;

Answer T for true or F for false.There can be no gains from trade between two countries if one of them has an absolute advantage in the production of all goods. Two individuals can benefit from specialization and trade if they agree upon a price that lies between their opportunity costs of producing the good. When a country opens to trade, people working in industries producing goods that the country exports are harmed by the trade. When two countries decide to engage in specialization and trade, the prices of all goods sold in each country will fall.
Answer:
Sentence One: False
Explanation:
Absolute advantage does not necessarily trump comparative advantage. Comparative advantage takes into consideration the principle of opportunity cost. The country with the absolute advantage may not be the country with the highest comparative advantage (that is, it is not the country with the least opportunity cost in the production of that same good).
Sentence Two: True
Specialization of trade occurs when countries specialize based on their absolute advantage then trade it with the goods from other countries which they have specialized in the production of same. When two of such countries agree on prices between their opportunity costs of producing the goods, it is usually more beneficial.
Sentence Three: False
Increased exports translate to increased revenue. Increased revenue means more business, the ability of the firms in such industry to retain and pay their workers and even hire more people as their operations expand.
Sentence Four: False
Specialization of trade simply means that a country focuses on improving its efficiency with regard to the production of CERTAIN production, not ALL its products. The fall in price is likely, however, to be seen in the goods in which it specialises in, subject to the laws of demand and supply as well as other economic factors.

1. Borrowed $55,200 by issuing a note.
2. Paid $8,280 cash dividend to stockholders.
3. Received $11,960 cash from a previously billed customer for services performed.
4. Purchased supplies on account for $2,852.
Using the following tabular analysis, show the effect of each transaction on the accounting equation. For retained earnings, use separate columns for revenues, expenses, and dividends if necessary. (If a transaction results in a decrease in Assets, Liabilities or Stockholder's Equity, place a negative sign (or parentheses) in front of the amount entered for the particular Asset, Liability or Equity item that was reduced.)

Boilermaker House Painting Company incurs the following transactions for September.
1. Paint houses in the current month for $15,000 on account. Assets increase and stockholders' equity increases.
2. Purchase painting equipment for $16,000 cash. One asset increases and another asset decreases.
3. Purchase office supplies on account for $2,500. Assets increase and liabilities increase.
4. Pay employee salaries of $3,200 for the current month. One asset increases and another asset decreases.
5. Purchase advertising to appear in the current month, $1,200. Assets increase and stockholders' equity increases.
6. Pay office rent of $4,400 for the current month. Assets decrease and stockholders' equity decreases.
7. Receive $10,000 from customers in (1) above. One asset increases and another asset decreases.
8. Receive cash of $5,000 in advance from a customer who plans to have his house painted in the following month. Assets increase and liabilities increase.
For each transaction, describe the dual effect on the accounting equation. For example, for the first transaction, (1) assets increase and (2) stockholders' equity increases.
The description of the dual effects of the transactions on the accounting equation is as follows:
1. Asset increases (Accounts Receivable) and stockholders' equity (Retained Earnings) increases.
2. One asset (Equipment) increases and another asset (Cash) decreases.
3. Assets (Supplies) increase and liabilities (Accounts Payable) increase.
4. Assets (Cash) decrease and stockholders' equity (Retained Earnings) decreases.
5. Assets (Cash) decrease and stockholders' equity (Retained Earnings) decreases.
6. Assets (Cash) decrease and stockholders' equity (Retained Earnings) decreases.
7. One asset (Cash) increases and another asset (Accounts Receivable) decreases.
8. Assets (Cash) increase and liabilities (Deferred Revenue) increase.
What is the Accounting Equation?The accounting equation is a depiction that assets equal liabilities and equity at every given time and with every transaction. This equation gives each transaction the dual effect.
Data Analysis:1. Accounts Receivable $15,000 Service Revenue $15,000
2. Equipment $16,000 Cash $16,000
3. Supplies $2,500 Accounts Payable $2,500
4. Salaries Expense $3,200 Cash $3,200
5. Advertising Expense $1,200 Cash $3,200
6. Rent Expense $4,400 Cash $4,400
7. Cash $10,000 Accounts Receivable $10,000
8. Cash $5,000 Deferred Revenue $5,000
Thus, the dual effect means that each transaction affects, at least, two accounts of the accounting equation.

Is the percentage of Flying Cow’s expected long-term cash flows consistent with the value cited in the professional studies? No, because only 50.05% of the firm’s share price is derived from its expected long-term free cash flows. Yes, because 75.42% of the firm’s share price is derived from its expected long-term free cash flows. No, because the percentage of Flying Cow’s expected long-term cash flows is actually 14.30%. Yes, because 85.70% of the firm’s share price is derived from its expected long-term free cash flows.
Answer: The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
The multi-stage valuation model Consider the case of Flying Cow Aviation Inc.: Flying Cow Aviation Inc. is expected to generate a free cash flow (FCF) of $1,180,000 this year, and the FCF is expected to grow at a rate of 14% over the following two years (FCF 2 and FCF3). After the third year, however, the company's FCFs are expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% per year, which will last forever (FCF 4-0). If Flying Cow's weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 12%, complete the following table and compute the current value of Flying Cow's operations. Round all dollar amounts to the nearest whole dollar, and assume that the firm does not have any nonoperating assets in its balance sheet and that all FCFs occur at the end of each year. Year PV(FCF) CFt $1,180,000 FCF1 FCF2 FCF3 FCF4 Horizon Value4 Vop= Flying Cow's debt has a market value of $16,875,959, and Flying Cow has no preferred stock in its capital structure. If Flying Cow has 100,000 shares of common stock outstanding, then the total value of the company's common equity is $ , and the estimated intrinsic value per share of its common stock is $ per share. Assume the following: • The end of Year 3 differentiates Flying Cow's short-term and long-term FCFs. • Professionally-conducted studies have shown that more than 80% of the average company's share price is attributable to long-term- rather than short-term-cash flows.
