Answer: Debit: Bad debt expense $21400
Credit: Allowance for doubtful debt $21400
Explanation:
Based on the information given, the bad debt expense will be:
= 49400- (40000-18000+6000)]
= 49400 - 28000
= 21,400
The bad debt expenses of $21400 will be debited
The Allowance for doubtful Accounts of $21400 will be credited.
(To record bad debts expense)
Consider two perfectly negatively correlated risky securities, A and B. Security A has an expected rate of return of 12% and a standard deviation of return of 17%. B has an expected rate of return of 9% and a standard deviation of return of 14%.
Required:
a. What are the weights of A and B in the global minimum variance portfolio respectively?
b. What is the rate of return on the risk-free portfolio that can be formed with the two securities ?
Answer:
A) Weight of Security A = 0.45
Weight of Security B = 0.55
B)Risk free rate = 10.35%
Explanation:
We are given;
A) Expected rate of return for Security A; ERR = 12%
Standard deviation of return for Security A; SD = 17%
Expected rate of return for Security B; ERR = 9%
Standard deviation of return for Security B; SD = 14%
Now, formula for weight of Security A is;
Weight of security A = SD of security B ÷ (SD of security B + SD of security A)
Weight of Security A = 14%/(14% + 17%)
Weight of Security A ≈ 0.45
Weight of Security B = 1 - weight of Security A
Weight of Security B = 1 - 0.45
Weight of Security B = 0.55
B) Formula for the risk free rate is;
Risk free rate = (weight of Security A × ERR of security A) + (weight of Security B × ERR of security B)
Risk free rate = (0.45 × 12%) + (0.55 × 9%)
Risk free rate = 10.35%
Von Bora Corporation is expected pay a dividend of $1.40 per share at the end of this year and a $1.50 per share at the end of the second year. You expect Von Bora's stock price to be $25.00 at the end of two years. Von Bora's equity cost of capital is 10%. The price you would be willing to pay today for a share of Von Bora stock, if you plan to hold the stock for two years is closest to:
Answer:
Price of share today = $23.17
Explanation:
The value of a stock using the dividend valuation model, is the present value of the expected cash inflows discounted at the required rate of return. The required rate of return is the cost of equity.
The cost of equity is 10% in this scenario
The price of the share will be determined as follows:
$
Present value of Dividend in yr 1 = 1.40× 1.1^(-1)= 1.27
Present value of Dividend in yr 2 = 1.50 × 1.1^(-2)=1.24
Present value of share in yr 2 = 25× 1.1^(-2) = 20.66
Present value of total cash inflow 23.17
Price of share today = $23.17
Stocks are considered as a financial instruments that represents a firm's ownership stake. Stocks are tool for investors to grow their money and surpass inflation over time.
The computation of the capital gain for the first year is shown below;
Current value = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%, time period)
= $1.4 ÷ 1.1 + $1.5 ÷ 1.1^2 + $25 ÷ 1.1^2
= $23.15
Hence, the capital gain for the first year is $23.15

Price can be defined as the amount of money that is required to be paid by a buyer (customer) to a seller (producer) in order to acquire goods and services.
In sales and marketing, pricing of products is considered to be an essential element of a business firm's marketing mix because place, promotion and product largely depends on it.
Price discrimination refers to the situation in which a business firm sells an identical product to different consumers at different selling price based on reasons that are not in any way associated or related with its manufacturing cost.

Department A had no Work-in-Process at the beginning of the period, 4,400 units were completed during the period, 540 units were 50% completed at the end of the period, and the following manufacturing costs were debited to the departmental Work-in-Process account during the period: Direct materials (1,540 at $10) $ 15,400 Direct labor 32,173 Factory overhead 25,735 Assuming that all direct materials are added at the beginning of production and Department A uses weighted-average process costing, what is the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period
Answer:
the ending inventory is $8,748
Explanation:
The computation of the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period is shown below:
Materials is $10 per unit
And, the conversion cost is
= ($32,173 + $25,735) ÷ (4,400 units + 540 units ÷ 2)
= $57,908 ÷ 4,670
= $12.4
Now the ending inventory is
= 540 units × $10 per unit + 270 units × $12.4
= $8,748
Hence, the ending inventory is $8,748

Being entries to recognize cost incurred in the purchase of Land improvements
Dr Building $175,324.50
Cr Cash $175,324.50
Being entries to recognize cost incurred in the purchase of Building
Explanation:
Using the appraisal method to apportion the cost of an asset to the components of the asset involves the consideration of the appraised cost of each individual item as a portion of the total cost of the asset.
Thus, given that Rodriguez Company pays $389,610 for real estate with land, land improvements, and a building
Appraised cost of
Land = $247,500
Land improvements = $55,000
Building = $247,500
Total appraised cost of the asset = $247,500 +$55,000 + $247,500
= $550,000
Allocated cost of;
Land = $247,500/$550,000 * $389,610
= $175,324.50
Land improvements = $55,000/$550,000 * $389,610
= $38,961.00
Building = $247,500/$550,000 * $389,610
= $175,324.50
Journal entries

Suppose a stock had an initial price of $85 per share, paid a dividend of $1.50 per share during the year, and had an ending share price of $99. a. Compute the percentage total return. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What was the dividend yield
Answer:
18.23%
1.76%
Explanation:
The total return of a stock = price return + dividend yield
Price return calculates the change in price of a stock
Price return = (change in price / initial stock price ) x 100
change in price = $99 - $85 = $14
($14 / $85) x 100 = 16.47%
Dividend yield = (dividend paid / initial price of the stock ) x 100
($1.5 / $85) x 100 = 1.76%
Total return = 16.47% + 1.76% = 18.23%
The Buck Store is considering a project that will require additional inventory of $216,000 and will increase accounts payable by $181,000. Accounts receivable are currently $525,000 and are expected to increase by 9 percent if this project is accepted. What is the project's initial cash flow for net working capital
Answer:
$607,250 outflow
Explanation:
Net Working Capital is the amount of money needed to maintain operations on a day to day basis.
Net Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
where,
Current Assets are calculated as :
Inventory $216,000
Accounts Receivable ($525,000 x 1.09) $575,250
Total $788,250
and
Current Liabilities = $181,000
therefore,
Net Working Capital = $788,250 - $181,000 = $607,250
Conclusion
The project's initial cash flow for net working capital is $607,250 outflow.
Since 1970, Super Rise, Inc., has provided maintenance services for elevators. On January 1, 2016, Super Rise obtains a contract to maintain an elevator in a 90-story building in New York City for 10 months and receives a fixed payment of $95,000.
The contract specifies that Super Rise will receive an additional $47,500 at the end of the 10 months if there is no unexpected delay, stoppage, or accident during the year.
Super Rise estimates variable consideration to be the most likely amount it will receive.
Required:
1. Assume that, because the building sees a constant flux of people throughout the day, Super Rise is allowed to access the elevators and related mechanical equipment only between 3am and 5am on any given day, which is insufficient to perform some of the more time-consuming repair work. As a result, Super Rise believes that unexpected delays are likely and that it will not earn the bonus. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on January 1. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, record "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
2. Assume instead that Super Rise knows at the inception of the contract that it will be given unlimited access to the elevators and related equipment each day, with the right to schedule repair sessions any time. When given these terms and conditions, Super Rise has never had any delays or accidents in the past. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on January 31 to record one month of revenue.(If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Record any necessary entry on January 31 to record one month of revenue
3. Assume the same facts as requirement 1. In addition assume that, on May 31, Super Rise determines that it does not need to spend more than two hours on any given day to operate the elevator safely because the client’s elevator is relatively new. Therefore, Super Rise believes that unexpected delays are very unlikely. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on May 31 to recognize May revenue and any necessary revision in its estimated bonus receivable. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Record any necessary entry on May 31 to recognize May revenue and any necessary revision in its estimated bonus receivable.

$7,000 of merchandise inventory was ordered on September 2, 2009 2. $3,000 of this merchandise was received on September 5, 2009 3. On September 6, 2009, an invoice dated September 4, 2009, with terms of 3/10, net 30 for $3,250 which included a $250 prepaid freight cost, was received. 4. On September 10, 2009, $800 of the merchandise was returned to the seller. Based on the above information, what would be recorded as net purchases amount after all of the transactions have been recorded
Answer:
the amount of the net purchase is $2,384
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of the net purchase is shown below:
Net purchases is
= purchases - purchase Discount - purchase returns
= $3,250 - ($3,250 - $250 - $800) × 3% - $800
= $3,250 - $66 - $800
= $2,384
hence, the amount of the net purchase is $2,384
Basically the above formula would be used

Warranty costs are estimated to be 1% of sales. If the company incurred $2,200 of actual costs in responding to warranty claims in 2020 (related to 2020 sales), how much should Clinicke record in warranty expense for 2020
Answer:
the amount recorded in the warranty expense is $8,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount recorded in the warranty expense is shown below:
= Sale value of merchandise inventory × estimated percentage
= $800,000 × 1%
= $8,000
hence, the amount recorded in the warranty expense is $8,000

A purely domestic firm that sources and sells only domestically, Multiple Choice should never hedge since this could actually increase its currency exposure. faces no exchange rate risk and should never hedge since this could actually increase its currency exposure. faces no exchange rate risk. faces exchange rate risk to the extent that it has international competitors in the domestic market.
Answer:
faces exchange rate risk to the extent that it has international competitors in the domestic market.
Explanation:
Exchange rate risk is defined as the risk that exists when a company engaged in transactions that are denominated in a foreign currency rather than the domestic currency.
So if a purely domestic firm that sources and sells only domestically has international competitors in its local market, and the exchange rate is favouring the competitors there will be a risk for them.
For example if international competitors can source raw materials cheaper because of the exchange rate of a foreign country, it will be a disadvantage to local firms that cannot reduce their prices.

Cherry Valley Lumber's (CVL) lumber mill produces boards of various sizes and quality specifications for the home construction industry. CVL incurs joint costs in the initial phases of processing raw timber, such as transporting the logs to the mill, removing the bark from the logs, and cutting rough-cut boards. After the split-off point, CVL incurs costs in the Planing Department to finalize the finished boards of various grades and sizes. Which of the following statements regarding the costs at CVL is true?
a. The costs to finish the boards after the split-off point will not be traced directly to the finished boards according to the various grades and sizes produced. The costs for transporting the logs, removing bark, and cutting the rough-cut boards before the split-off point will be traced to the final finished boards.
b. The costs for transporting the logs, removing bark, and cutting the rough-cut boards before the split-off point will not be directly traced to the final finished boards. All costs to finish the boards after the split-off point will be traced directly to the finished boards according to the various grades and sizes produced.
c. It will be impossible for CVL to directly trace any costs to the finished boards of various grades and sizes.
d. CVL will be able to directly trace all costs before and after the split-off point to the finished boards of various grades and sizes.
Answer:
Cherry Valley Lumber's (CVL)
The statement regarding the costs at CVL that is true is:
b. The costs for transporting the logs, removing bark, and cutting the rough-cut boards before the split-off point will not be directly traced to the final finished boards. All costs to finish the boards after the split-off point will be traced directly to the finished boards according to the various grades and sizes produced.
Explanation:
This is why the costs at split-off are usually apportioned to the different categories of products based on some chosen criteria, e.g. sales value, size, etc. However, after split-off, costs that are incurred can easily be traced to the various grades and sizes of boards produced. This simply means that after split-off, costs become traceable and direct to each board category.
The Finishing Department had 6,800 incomplete units in its beginning Work-in-Process Inventory which were 100% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion costs. 18,600 units were received from the previous department. The ending Work-in-Process Inventory consisted of 3,800 units which were 50% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion costs. The Finishing Department uses first-in, first-out (FIFO) process costing. How many units were started and completed during the period
Answer:
14,800 units
Explanation:
To understand units started and completed principle, ask yourself, "Out of the units Started during the year, how many units were Completed?"
Since we are using FIFO the units in Inventory will be worked on first followed by the units introduced in process during the year.
So this can be calculated out of units completed as follows :
Units started and completed = Units Started - Units in Ending Work in Process
therefore,
Units started and completed = 18,600 - 3,800 = 14,800 units
Conclusion :
Units started and completed during the period were 14,800 units.
LaMont works for a company in downtown Chicago. The company encourages employees to use public transportation (to save the environment) by providing them with transit passes at a cost of $290 per month. rev: 09_23_2020_QC_CS-230013a. If LaMont receives one pass (worth $290) each month, how much of this benefit must he include in his gross income each year
Answer:
The IRS sets the limit on transportation benefits provided by an employer, for 2021, this limit is $270 per month, or $3,240 per year.
The total benefit received by LaMont should = 12 x $290 = $3,480
This means that he must include $3,480 - $3,240 = $240 as part of his annual gross income.

Explain how art sellers use the 4 P's of marketing to promote expensive art to the desired patrons. Then, consider: Do you think it makes sense to view art as a product and promote it using the marketing mix? How is it similar to other products? On the other hand, what makes art different or "special" in comparison to the products we usually buy in a store?
Explanation:
Yes, the art market can benefit from the use of the marketing mix, since the 4p's of marketing, which are the product, price, place and promotion, will directly influence the positioning of a product in the market and consequently increase sales.
In the case of works of art, the marketing mix helps to align marketing strategies to reach the potential audience that consumes art. It can then be considered that the arts make up a specific type of market niche, which has consumers willing to pay certain prices according to the artist, the rarity of the artwork, the time, etc. Therefore, the marketing mix works as a strategic set that will help art sellers to position their product with their consumers and thus achieve the final goal of making sales.
Madison Corporation's production cycle starts in the Processing Department. The following information is available for April: Units Work-in-process, April 1 (25% complete) 50,000 Total units in process during April 290,000 Work-in-process, April 30 (60% complete) 30,000 Materials are added at the beginning of the process in the Processing Department. What are the equivalent units of production for the month of April, assuming Madison uses the weighted-average method
Answer:
Equivalent units of production= 278,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Total units in process during April 290,000
Work-in-process, April 30 (60% complete) 30,000
The weighted average method blends the costs and units of the previous period with the costs and units of the current period.
To calculate the equivalent units, we need to use the following formula:
Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production
Equivalent units of production= (290,000 - 30,000) + 30,000*0.6
Equivalent units of production= 278,000

Assume that you have entered into a fixed for fixed currency swap agreement under which every 6 months you agree to pay 3% on a notional of 110M USD and receive 4% on a notional of 100M EUR. On the date you signed the contract the spot exchange rate is 1.1 USD/EUR. Six months later the spot exchange rate is 1.05 USD/EUR. Your actual payment net of what you receive at the first payment date equals to :__________
Answer: -0.55M USD
Explanation:
The payment made will be:
= 3%/2 × 110M USD
= 0.03/2 × 110M USD
= 1.65M USD
The amount received will be:
= 4%/2 × 100M EUR
= 2% × 100M EUR
= 0.02 × 100M EUR
= 2M EUR
Since exchange rate = 1.1 USD/EUR
2M EUR = 2 × 1.1 = 2.2M USD
Therefore, net payment will be:
= 1.65M - 2.2M
= - 0.55M USD
