Mind mapping

Explanation:

Mind mapping is commonly known as a graphic technique. It is used simply for showing or representing ideas, simply by using words, images, symbols, and color. It is patterns based and found in nature and research on how humans think and use their minds. It used to articulate and capture thoughts, ideas, and information as it is a connected relationships that uses structure and logic to thoughts, ideas, and information.

Furthermore, it it characterized by a central main idea, secondary ideas (or topics), also has other many layers of ideas (or sub-topics) importantly to fully capture and articulate the concept.

Required information E4-12 and E4-13 Skip to question Bunker makes two types of briefcase, fabric and leather. The company is currently using a traditional costing system with labor hours as the cost driver but is considering switching to an activity-based costing system. In preparation for the possible switch, Bunker has identified two activity cost pools: materials handling and setup. Pertinent data follow: Fabric Case Leather Case Number of labor hours 15,000 8,000 Number of material moves 672 1,428 Number of setups 108 162 Total estimated overhead costs are $393,300, of which $315,000 is assigned to the materials handling cost pool and $78,300 is assigned to the setup cost pool. E4-12 (Algo) Assigning Costs Using Traditional System, ABC System [LO 4-1, 4-3, 4-4, 4-5, 4-6] Required: 1. Calculate the overhead assigned to the fabric case using the traditional costing system based on direct labor hours. 2. Calculate the overhead assigned to the fabric case using ABC. 3. Was the fabric case over- or undercosted by the traditional cost system compared to ABC

Answers

Answer:

1. $256,500

2. $132,120

3. The fabric case is over costed by the traditional cost system compared to ABC

Explanation:

1. Calculation for the overhead assigned to the fabric case using the traditional costing system based on direct labor hours.

Traditional costing

Overhead Assigned under traditional costing = 393,300/(15,000+8,000)*15,000

Overhead Assigned under traditional costing = 393,300/23,000*15,000

Overhead Assigned under traditional costing = $256,500

Therefore the overhead assigned to the fabric case using the traditional costing system based on direct labor hours will be $256,500

2. Calculation for the overhead assigned to the fabric case using ABC.

ABC Costing

First step is to calculate the Material handling rate

Material handling rate = 315,000/(672 +1,428)

Material handling rate = 315,000/2,100

Material handling rate = 150 per move

Second step is to calculate the Setup cost

Setup cost=78,300/(108+ 162)

Setup cost = 78,300/270

Setup cost= 290 per setup

Now let calculate the Overhead assigned to ABC

Overhead assigned to ABC = (672*150)+(108*290)

Overhead assigned to ABC=100,800+31,320

Overhead assigned to ABC=$132,120

Therefore the overhead assigned to the fabric case using ABC will be $132,120

3. Based on the above calculation Fabric case is OVER costed with the amount of $256,500 Under traditional costing system compared to ABC.

An article in The Globe and Mail, February 16, 2002, reported that IBM used the $300 million proceeds of a sale of one of its business units to reduce operating expenses in its fourth quarter 2001 income statement. This added about 8 cents per share to its fourth quarter earnings. As a result, IBM beat analysts' forecasts by 1 cent per share.

IBM defended its treatment by claiming that buying and selling businesses is a normal business practice, and that most of the sale proceeds related to intellectual property that it had developed. The article quotes a Merrill Lynch analyst as saying, "Our only concern is that the company could have done more to call out the magnitude of the transaction." According to the article, IBM's share price fell by 4% as a result of this news.

While not mentioned in this article, the SEC opened a preliminary inquiry into IBM's accounting practice, expressing concerns that IBM had let it be known that the reason for its higher operating earnings was tight cost controls, rather than the sale proceeds. This inquiry was subsequently dropped, but the SEC issued a bulletin reminding firms to report gains or losses on asset sales separately from operating costs.

Required

Explain why IBM's share price dropped following the Merrill Lynch analyst's comment and the news of the SEC's preliminary inquiry.

Answers

Answer:

The sale of business units are one time events that should not be common. If the only way that IBM can show profit is by selling business divisions, in a very short time it will run out of divisions to sell. A company's intrinsic value is given by its cash flows, especially the operating cash flow.

According to the substitution effect of labor supply, when the wage rate goes up: Group of answer choices it becomes more costly to consume leisure, so people will work more. it becomes less costly to consume leisure, so people will work more. the opportunity cost of enjoying leisure goes down. firms will hire more workers since people are more willing to work.

Answers

It becomes more costly to consume leisure—i.e., when wages rise, the cost of not working to earn those higher wages also rises.

According to the substitution effect of labor, firms would hire more workers because people are more willing to work more.

The substitution effect of labor tells us that as income is raised, people would be more willing to give up leisure hours to work more.

This is due to the fact that they would earn more money for the extra hours that they would have spent on leisure.

There would be more willingness to work and the firms would have more people to hire.

World biggest Logic To solve anything

A group of middle school students wants to raise money to help build a new school track. They decided to sell donuts before school. Demand is 275 donuts when the donuts are given away free, and the demand drops to 175 donuts when the price is 25 cents per donut. However, the middle school administration is prepared to supply only 150 donuts free of charge but will supply 200 donuts when the price is 50 cents per donut. Assume that the demand and supply functions are both linear functions. What price should the students charge per donut so that there is neither a surplus nor a shortage of donuts

Answers

Answer:

25 cent/donuts

Explanation:

Demand function have these two points (275, 0), (175, 25)

Demand function equation:

y - 25 = [tex]\frac{25 - 0}{175-275}[/tex] (x-175)

-100y + 2500 = (x - 175)

-4y + 100 = x - 175

x + 4y = 100 + 175

x + 4y = 275....................equ 1

Similarly Supply function have these point (150,0), (200, 50)

Supply function equation:

y - 50 = [tex]\frac{50 - 0}{200-150}[/tex](x- 200)

50y - 2500 = x - 200

y - 50 = x - 200

x - y = 200 - 150

x - y = 150

By equation 1 & 2

x + 4y = 275

x - y =  150 ==> x = 150+y

So from equ 1 => x + 4y = 275

=> 150+y+4y = 275

=> 150+5y = 275

=> 5y = 275 - 150

=> 5y = 125

=> y = 25

So, the price that the students should charge per donut so that there is neither a surplus nor a shortage of donuts is 25 cent/donuts

What factors account for a fall in the long-run cost curve?

Answers

Economies of Scale and Long Run Average Cost (LRAC)

In the long run all costs are variable and the scale of production can change (i.e. no fixed inputs)
Economies of scale are the cost advantages from expanding the scale of production in the long run. The effect is to reduce average costs over a range of output
These lower costs represent an improvement in productive efficiency and can give a business a competitive advantage in a market. They lead to lower prices and higher profits – this is called a positive sum game for producers and consumers (i.e. the welfare of both will improve)
We make no distinction between fixed and variable costs in the long run
As long as the long run average total cost curve (LRAC) is declining, then internal economies of scale are being exploited.
The table below shows a numerical example of falling LRAC

Long Run Output (Units) Total Costs (£s) Long Run Average Cost (£ per unit)
1000 12000 12
2000 20000 10
5000 45000 9
10000 80000 8
20000 144000 7.2
50000 330000 6.6
100000 640000 6.4
500000 3000000 6
Returns to Scale and Costs in the Long Run

The table below shows how changes in the scale of production can, if increasing returns to scale are exploited, lead to lower average costs.

Factor Inputs Production Costs
(K) (La) (L) (Q) (TC) (TC/Q)
Capital Land Labour Output Total Cost Average Cost
Scale A 5 3 4 100 3256 32.6
Scale B 10 6 8 300 6512 21.7
Scale C 15 9 12 500 9768 19.5
Costs: Assume the cost of each unit of capital = £600, Land = £80 and Labour = £200
Because the % change in output exceeds the % change in factor inputs used, then, although total costs rise, the average cost per unit falls as the business expands from scale A to B to C

Examples of Increasing Returns to Scale

Much of the new thinking in economics focuses on the increasing returns available to growing businesses:

An example of this is the software and computer gaming industry.

The overhead costs of developing new software programs or computer games are huge - often running into hundreds of millions of dollars
The marginal cost of one extra copy for sale is close to zero, perhaps just a few cents or pennies
If a company can establish itself in the market, positive feedback from consumers will expand the installed customer base, raise demand and encourage the firm to increase production
Because marginal cost is low, the extra output reduces average costs creating economies of scale

June 30, 2020

Dr. Interest expense __$3,564.75

Cr. Discount on bonds_$64.75

Cr. Cash ___________$3,500

[To record interest]  

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the issuance price of the bond

Issuance price of the bond = Face value x Seling rate = $70,000 x 97/100 = $67,900

Now we need to calculate the discount value as follow

Discount = Face value - Isuance vaue = $70,000 - $67,900 = $2,100

Now, need to calculate the discount amortization as follow

Discount amortization = ( Carrying value of bond x Effective interest rate x 6/12 ) - ( Face value x Coupon rate x 6/12 ) = ( $67,900 x 10.5%x 6/12 ) - ( $70,000 x 10% x 6/12 = $3,564.75 - $3,500 = $64.75

Now calculate the interest payment

Interst payment = Face value x Coupon rate x 6/12 = $70,000 x 10% x 6/12 = $3,500

The bonds would expire on the date of maturity, and the issuing company will pay the debt holder the face value of the bond.

The issue price is termed as the price at which the issuer of the bond sells the bonds for the first time.

The Journal entry has been attached below.  

The calculation of the issuance price of the bond:

Issuance price of the bond = [tex]\text{Face value} \times \text{Seling rate} = \$70,000 \times \frac{97}{100}[/tex] = $67,900

Calculation of the discount value:

Discount = Face value - Isuance vaue = $70,000 - $67,900 = $2,100

Calculation of the discount amortization:

Discount amortization = [tex]( \text{Carrying value of bond} \times \text{Effective interest rate} \itimes \frac{6}{12} ) - ( \text{Face value} \times \text{Coupon rate} \times \frac{6}{12})[/tex]

= [tex]( \$67,900 \times 10.5\%\times \frac{6}{12}) - ( \$70,000 \times 10\% \times \frac{6}{12})[/tex]

= $3,564.75 - $3,500 = $64.75

Calculation of the interest payment:

Interst payment =[tex]\text{ Face value} \times \text{Coupon rate} \times \frac{6}{12} = \$70,000 \times 10\% \times \frac{6}{12}[/tex]= $3,500

Delivery typically requires five weeks, and freight averages 2.5% of total billed cost. Trade discounts on this merchandise are 40% and 10%; terms are 2/10, n/30.

A wholesaler, located in the retailer's area, stocks many of the same stuffed animals. He does not require a minimum order and will deliver at no charge in the area if the order has a billed cost of at least $500.

What is the difference in the total net cost (including freight) of merchandise with a total list price of $1, 200 from these two vendors?

Answers

Answer:

difference between supplies = $4.68

Explanation:

cost of merchandise from manufacturer if paid within discount period:

$1,200 x (1 - 40%) = $720

$720 x (1 - 10%) = $648

freight cost = $648 x 2.5% = $16.20

discount for early payment = $648 x 2% = $12.96

total cost = $651.24

cost of merchandise from wholesaler if paid within discount period:

$1,200 x (1 - 40%) = $720

$720 x (1 - 8%) = $662.40

discount for early payment = $648 x 1% = $6.48

total cost = $655.92

difference between supplies = $4.68

Cost of merchandise from manufacturer if paid within discount period:

$1,200 x (1 - 40%) = $720 and $720 x (1 - 10%) = $648

Cost of merchandise

Freight cost = $648 x 2.5% = $16.20

Discount for early payment = $648 x 2% = $12.96

Then Total cost is = $651.24

Then the price of merchandise from wholesaler if paid within discount period: $1,200 x (1 - 40%) = $720 and $720 x (1 - 8%) = $662.40

After that discount for early payment is= $648 x 1% = $6.48

Then the full cost is = $655.92

Thus, the right answer is that the difference between supplies = $4.68

Abigail has just signed a 5-year lease for her new business. The full annual lease amount is due at the beginning of every year and such cash flows have been agreed to be 20,156 dollars now and the subsequent payments to increase by 5% per year until maturity. Given that the prevailing average market interest rate is 8% per year compounded monthly, compute the present value of this financial asset. (note: round your answer to the nearest cent and do not include spaces, currency signs, or commas)

Answers

Answer: $93,088

Explanation:

Rate is compounded monthly which makes it:

= 8% / 12

= 0.6667%

= 0.006667

The payment of $20,156 is to increase yearly at a rate of 5%. Payments are at the beginning of the period so the first payment does not have to be discounted.

[tex]= 20,156 + \frac{20,156 * 1.04}{(1 + 0.006667)^{12} } + \frac{20,156 * 1.04^{2} }{(1 + 0.006667)^{24} } + \frac{20,156 * 1.04^{3} }{(1 + 0.006667)^{36} } + \frac{20,156 * 1.04^{4} }{(1 + 0.006667)^{48} }\\\\= 20,156 + 19,355.65 + 18,587.08 + 17,849.02 + 17,140.27\\\\= 93,088.02[/tex]

A consulting engineer has been engaged to advise a town how best to proceed with the construction of a 200,000 water supply reservoir. Since only 120,000 of storage will be required for the next 25 years, an alternative to building the full capacity now is to build the reservoir in two stages. Initially, the reservoir could be built with 120,000 of capacity and then, 25 years hence, the additional 80,000 of capacity could be added by increasing the height of the reservoir. Estimated costs are as follows construction cost, and annual maintenance cost, build in 2 stages first stage 120,000 reservoir $14'200,000 $75,000; second stage add 80,000 of capacity $120600,000 and $25,000 additional construction cost build in full capacity now 200,000 reservoir $22'400,000 and $100,000 if the interest is computed at 4%, which construction plan is preferred?

Answers

Answer:

Single stage construction

PW of Cost = $22,400,000 + 100,000(P/A, 4%, 25)

PW of Cost = $22,400,000 + 100,000(15.622)

PW of Cost = $22,400,000 + $1,562,200

PW of Cost = $23,962,200

Tow stage construction

PW of cots = $14,200,000 + $75,000(P/A, 4%, 25) + $12,600,000(P/F, 4%, 25)

PW of cost = $14,200,000 + $75,000(15.622) + $12,600,000(0.3751)

PW of cost = $14,200,000 + $1,171,650 + $4,726,260

PW of cost = $20,097,910

Conclusion: We should choose two stage construction as it has lesser Present worth of cost.

Here we preferred two stage construction as it has lesser Present worth of cost.

Calculation of the selection of the construction plan:

For Single stage construction

PW of Cost = $22,400,000 + 100,000(P/A, 4%, 25)

= $22,400,000 + 100,000(15.622)

= $22,400,000 + $1,562,200

= $23,962,200

Now

For Tow stage construction

PW of cots = $14,200,000 + $75,000(P/A, 4%, 25) + $12,600,000(P/F, 4%, 25)

= $14,200,000 + $75,000(15.622) + $12,600,000(0.3751)

= $14,200,000 + $1,171,650 + $4,726,260

= $20,097,910

Answers

Answer:

9.749 years

Explanation:

Given that :

Principal, P = 20,000

Total investment A = 35000

Investment 1:

P = $10,000

Compounded continuously at r = 5.2% = 0.052

A = Pe^rt

Investment B:

P = $10,000

Compounded annually at r = 6.4% = 0.064

A = P(1 + r)^t

Hence, final amount, A on both investment = 35000

A = Pe^rt + P(1 + r)^t

35000 = 10000e^0.052t + 10000(1 + 0.064)^t

Divide through by 10000

3.5 = e^0.052t + 1.064^t

t = 9.749123

t = 9.749 years

Explanation:

                                                 

The amount of the annual lease payments as calculated by the lessor and above situations are $86,033.44, $100,501.35, and  $60,261.66 respectively.  The amount lessee would record as a leased asset and a lease liability for above situations are  $620,000, $1,000,000 $205,000 respectively.

What are lease payments?

Lease payments are regular payments made to the lessor, who owns the asset, and the lessee, who will utilize it, as per the conditions of a contract. Before the lessee either returns the object or purchases it outright, the lease payments often continue for a predetermined amount of time.

a)  For Situation 1:

Formula for calculating annual lease payments is:

Annual lease payments = Fair value of assets ÷ Present value for annuity due.

Where,

Fair Value of Assets of the leased asset = $620,000

Lease term = 12 years

Lessor's rate of return = 11%

The present value of annuity due 12 years at the rate of 11% is 7.2065

Putting in the values in the formula we get:

Annual lease payments =  $620,000/7.2065  = $86,033.44

b) Formula for the lease liability = Annual rent payment × present value of annuity due.

Lease liability = $86,033.44 x 7.2065 = $620,000

For Situation 2:

a) The present value of annuity due 20 years at the rate of 9% is 9.9501

Annual lease payments = $100,000/9.9501  = $100,501.35

b) Lease liability = $100,501.35 x 9.9501 = $1,000,000

For Situation 3:

a) The present value of annuity due 4 years at the rate of 12% is 3.4081

Annual lease payments =  $205,000/3.4081  = $60,261.66

b) The lease ability = $60,261.66 x 3.4801  = $205,000

Therefore, the amounts that of the lease payment for the lessor and the lessee is determined above.

You decide to set aside $120 a month for your future. Assuming an interest rate of 6.35%, how much will you have after 25 years? How much more would you have if you invested for 30 years?

Answers

Answer:

After 20 years you will have "$87,784.99" and after 30 years you will have "$41,151.55".

Explanation:

The give values are:

After 25 years,

Cash Flow per period,

C = $120

Interest rate per period,

i = [tex]\frac{6.35 \ percent}{12}[/tex]

= [tex]0.52916667 \ percent[/tex]

Number of period,

n = [tex]25\times 12[/tex]

  = [tex]300[/tex]

The future value will be:

=  [tex]C\times \frac{ [(1+i)^n-1]}{i}[/tex]

On substituting the given values, we get

=  [tex]\frac{120[ (1+0.0052916667)^{300} -1]}{0.0052916667}[/tex]

=  [tex]120[\frac{(4.8711 -1)}{0.0052916667} ][/tex]

=  [tex]87,784.99[/tex] ($)

After 30 years,

Cash Flow per period,

C = $120

Interest rate per period,

i = [tex]\frac{6.35 \ percent}{12}[/tex]

= [tex]0.52916667 \ percent[/tex]

Number of period,

n = [tex]30\times 12[/tex]

  = [tex]360[/tex]

The future value will be:

=  [tex]C\times \frac{ [(1+i)^n-1]}{i}[/tex]

On substituting the given values, we get

=  [tex]\frac{120[ (1+0.0052916667)^{360} -1] }{0.0052916667}[/tex]

=  [tex]\frac{120[ (1.0052916667)^{360} -1]}{0.0052916667}[/tex]

=  [tex]120[\frac{(6.6857 -1)}{0.0052916667} ][/tex]

=   [tex]128,936.54[/tex] ($)

Thus

You will have:

Answers

Answer:

sign a contract with the contractor that includes the project start date and payment plan.

Explanation:

A contract can be defined as an agreement between two or more parties (group of people) which gives rise to a mutual legal obligation or enforceable by law.

Mutual assent is a legal term which represents an agreement by both parties to a contract. When two parties to a contract both have an understanding of the parameters, terms and conditions surrounding a contract, it ultimately implies that they are in agreement; this is generally referred to as mutual assent.

Hence, before work can begin on the project, the customer must sign a contract with the contractor that includes the project start date and payment plan.

Indiana Company produces couches. The fixed monthly cost of production is $8,000, and the variable cost per unit is $65. The couches sell for $180 apiece. Answer these questions: 3 points each 1) For a monthly volume of 300 tables, determine the total cost, total revenue, and profit. 2) Determine the monthly break-even volume for Indiana Company.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

1) For a monthly volume of 300 tables, determine the total cost, total revenue, and profit.

Fixed monthly cost = $8000

Variable cost per unit = $65

Selling price = $180 each

Monthly volume = 300

Therefore, the total cost will be

= $8000 + ($65 × 300)

= $8000 + $19500

= $27500

The total revenue will then be:

= Price × Quantity

= $180 * 300 units

= $54000

Total profit will be:

= Sales revenue - Cost

= $54000 - $27500

= $26500

b) Break even volume simply means the volume whereby no profit or loss is incurred. This will be:

= $8000 / ($180 - $65)

= $8000 / $115

= 69.56 units

= 70 units
