Carey Company had sales in 2016 of $1,560,000 on 60,000 units. Variable costs totaled $900,000, and fixed costs totaled $500,000. A new raw material is available that will decrease the variable costs per unit by 20% (or $3). However, to process the new raw material, fixed operating costs will increase by $100,000. Management feels that one-half of the decline in the variable costs per unit should be passed on to customers in the form of a sales price reduction. The marketing department expects that this sales price reduction will result in a 5% increase in the number of units sold.
(a) Prepare a projected CVP income statement for 2017, assuming the changes have not been made, and
(b) assuming that changes are made as described.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price per unit= 1,560,000 / 60,000= $26
Unitary variable cost= 900,000 / 60,000= $15
Fixed costs= $500,000.
First, the income statement without the changes:
Sales= 1,560,000
Total varaible cost= (900,000)
Contribution margin= 660,000
Total fixed costs= (500,000)
Net operating income= 160,000
Now, with the changes:
Unitary variable cost= (15*0.8)= 12
Selling price= 26 - 1.5= $24.5
Sales in units= 60,000*1.05= 63,000
Fixed costs= 500,000 + 100,000= $600,000
Sales= 24.5*63,000= 1,543,500
Total variable cost= (12*63,000)= (756,000)
Total contribution margin= 787,500
Fixed costs= (600,000)
Net operating income= 187,500
outlinr the selection procedure as a huma resource activity
Answer and Explanation:
A selection process as a human resources activity must be outlined, starting with the filling out of a form by the candidates for the vacancy that they are being offered through the selection. This form must contain basic information that will allow the human resources department to select people who have the minimum requirements necessary to participate in the next phase of the process. The next phase should be an interview, to get to know the candidates, assess their communication skills and ask incisive questions about the skills they have and the level of interest in the vacancy they are competing for. This is the key moment in the process, where the human resources department will be able to determine who deserves to be selected.
In July, one of the processing departments at Okamura Corporation had beginning work in process inventory of $24,000 and ending work in process inventory of $29,000. During the month, the cost of units transferred out from the department was $159,000. In the department's cost reconciliation report for July, the total cost to be accounted for under the weighted-average method would be:
Answer: $188000
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the total cost to be accounted for under the weighted-average method would be calculated thus:
Cost of ending work in process inventory = $29,000
Add: Cost of units transferred out = $159,000
Therefore, the total cost to be accounted for will be;
= $29000 + $159000
= $188000

On January 1 of this year, Nowell Company issued bonds with a face value of $240,000 and a coupon rate of 6.0 percent. The bonds mature in five years and pay interest semiannually every June 30 and December 31. When the bonds were sold, the annual market rate of interest was 6.0%.
1. What was the issue price on January 1 of this year?
2. What amount of interest expense should be recorded on June 30 and December 31 of this year?
3. What amount of cash is owed to investors on June 30 and December 31 of this year?
4. What is the book value of the bonds on December 31 of this year, December 31 of next year?
Answer:
1. What was the issue price on January 1 of this year?
since the coupon rate was 6% and the market rate was the same, the bonds will be sold at par, so their issue price = $240,000
2. What amount of interest expense should be recorded on June 30 and December 31 of this year?
interest expense = coupon rate = $7,200 (for both June 30 and December 31)
3. What amount of cash is owed to investors on June 30 and December 31 of this year?
Face value = $240,000
4. What is the book value of the bonds on December 31 of this year, December 31 of next year?
Face value = $240,000
The issue price is $240,000, interest expenses will be $7,200 each time. the company owes the investor the interest and the book value is $240,000.
What is face value?Face value is the original cost with which the shares are shown/ registered on the stock exchange. It is the amount that the company has to pay to the holder of the bonds in maturity, it is the par value for bonds.
1. The issue price of 6% coupon rate bonds is $240,000.
2. The amount of interest expense that should be recorded on June 30 and December 31
$240,000 X 6%=$14,400annually
but it is paid semi-annually so=$14,400/2= $7,200 for each time
3. The amount owed to the investor by the company will be the interest amount i.e $7,200 each on June 30 and December 31.
4. The book value of the bond will be the face value for which it was issued i.e $240,000.
Therefore the above statements aptly explain the facts.

Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $32,000. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, the van will be worth $6,000. During the four-year period, the company expects to drive the van 130,000 miles. Actual miles driven each year were 35,000 miles in year 1 and 38,000 miles in year 2.
Required:
Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years of the van using each of the following methods.
Answer:
(1) Straight-line.
Year 1 depreciation expense = $6,500
Year 2 depreciation expense = $6,500
(2) Double-declining-balance.
Year 1 depreciation expense = $16,000
Year 2 depreciation expense = $8,000
(3) Activity-based.
Year 1 depreciation expense = $7,000
Year 1 depreciation expense = $7,600
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $32,000. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, the van will be worth $6,000. During the four-year period, the company expects to drive the van 130,000 miles. Actual miles driven each year were 35,000 miles in year 1 and 38,000 miles in year 2.
Required:
Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years of the van using each of the following methods.
(1) Straight-line.
(2) Double-declining-balance.
(3) Activity-based.
The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:
(1) Straight-line.
Depreciable amount = Cost of the delivery van – Salvage value = $32,000 - $6,000 = $26,000
Annual depreciation rate = 1 / Number of useful years = 1 / 4 = 0.25, or 25%
Year 1 depreciation expense = Depreciable amount * Annual depreciation rate = $26,000 * 25% = $6,500
Year 2 depreciation expense = Depreciable amount * Annual depreciation rate = $26,000 * 25% = $6,500
(2) Double-declining-balance.
Note: The salvage value is taken care of in the computation of the depreciation expense for the last useful year under the double-declining-balance method.
Therefore, we have:
Cost of the delivery van = $32,000
Annual depreciation rate = Straight line annual depreciation rate * 2 = 25% * 2 = 50%
Year 1 depreciation expense = Cost of the delivery van * Annual depreciation rate = $32,000 * 50% = $16,000
Book value at the end of year 1 = Cost of the delivery van - Year 1 depreciation expense = $36,000 - $16,000 = $16,000
Year 2 depreciation expense = Book value at the end of year 1 * Annual depreciation rate = $16,000 * 50% = $8,000
(3) Activity-based.
Depreciable amount = Cost of the delivery van – Salvage value = $32,000 - $6,000 = $26,000
Depreciation rate = Actual miles driven each year / Expected driven miles for four years ……….. (1)
Depreciation expense for each year = Depreciable amount * Depreciation rate …………… (2)
Using equations (2), we have:
Year 1 depreciation expense = $26,000 * (35,000 / 130,000) = $7,000
Year 1 depreciation expense = $26,000 * (38,000 / 130,000) = $7,600

Budgeted Actual Sales volume 100 units 110 units Sales price $50 per unit $55 per unit Unit VC $30 per unit $33 per unit Input price for DL $10 per hour $12 per hour Input quantity per unit for DL 1.5 hours per unit 2 hours per unit Compute input efficiency variance for DL Group of answer choices $100 favorable $550 favorable $550 unfavorable 0.5 hours unfavorable $100 unfavorable
Answer:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $550 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following formula:
DL $10 per hour $12 per hour
Input quantity per unit for DL 1.5 hours per unit 2 hours per unit
To calculate the direct labor efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (110*1.5 - 110*2)*10
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $550 unfavorable
Lysiak Corporation uses an activity based costing system to assign overhead costs to products. In the first stage, two overhead costs--equipment depreciation and supervisory expense-are allocated to three activity cost pools--Machining, Order Filling, and Other--based on resource consumption. Data to perform these allocations appear below:
Overhead costs:
Equipment depreciation $ 47,000
Supervisory expense $ 6,000
Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activity Cost Pools:
Activity Cost Pools
Machining Order Filling Other
Equipment depreciation 0.60 0.10 0.30
Supervisory expense 0.60 0.20 0.20
In the second stage, Machining costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Order Filling costs are assigned to products using the number of orders. The costs in the Other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data for the company's two products follow:
Activity:
MHs (Machining) Orders (Order Filling)
Product C9 6,900 200
Product U0 3,100 800
Total 10,000 1,000
What is the overhead cost assigned to Product C9 under activity-based costing?
Answer:
$23,122
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the overhead cost assigned to Product C9 under activity-based costing
First step is to calculate the cost allocation to machining activity and order filling
MACHINING
Equipment depreciation (0.60 : 0.10 : 0.30)
Machining=$47,000 x 0.60 = $28,200
Supervisory expense (0.60 : 0.20 : 0.20) Machining=$6,000 x 0.60 = $3600
Total $31,800
($28,200+$3,600)
ORDER FILLING
Equipment depreciation (0.60 : 0.10 : 0.30)
Order filling=$47,000 x 0.10 = $4,700
Supervisory expense (0.60 : 0.20 : 0.20)
Order filling=$6000 x 0.20 = $1,200
Total $5,900
($4,700+$1,200)
Second step is to calculate the Assign overhead costs to products:
Assign overhead costs to products:
Machining= $31,800 ÷ 10,000 MHs
Machining= $3.18 per MHOrder
Order Filling=$5,900 ÷ 1,000 orders
Order Filling = $5.90 per order
Now let calculate the Overhead cost for Product C9
Machining= $3.18 per MH × 6,900
Machining=$21,942
Order Filling= $5.90 per order × 200 Orders Order Filling=$1,180
TOTAL $23,122
($21,942+$1,180)
Therefore the overhead cost assigned to Product C9 under activity-based costing is $23,122
Dwyer Company reported the following results for the year ended December 31, 2007, its first year of operations: 2007 Income (per books before income taxes) $ 1,500,000 Taxable income 2,400,000 The disparity between book income and taxable income is attributable to a temporary difference which will reverse in 2008. What should Dwyer record as a net deferred tax asset or liability for the year ended December 31, 2007, assuming that the enacted tax rates in effect are 40% in 2007 and 35% in 2008?
Answer: $315,000 deferred tax asset
Explanation:
The amount that Dwyer should record as a net deferred tax asset or liability for the year ended December 31, 2007 will be calculated thus:
= ($2400000 – $1500000) × 35%
= $900000 × 35%
= $900000 × 35/100
= $900000 × 0.35
= $315000.
Therefore, the answer is $315,000 deferred tax asset

Patricia purchased a home on January 1, 2017 for $1,420,000 by making a down payment of $100,000 and financing the remaining $1,320,000 with a 30-year loan, secured by the residence, at 6 percent. During year 2017 and 2018, Patricia made interest-only payments on the loan of $79,200. What amount of the $79,200 interest expense Patricia paid during 2018 may she deduct as an itemized deduction
Answer: $60,000
Explanation:
The maximum amount deductible is based on a mortgage of $1,000,000 and the interest rate of the mortgage being paid.
Interest on $1,000,000 at 6% is:
= 6% * 1,000,000
= $60,000
Only $60,000 of the $79,200 may be deducted.

Explanation:
As a result of a decrease in the demand for U.S. dollars, there has been depreciation in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to Macedonian dinars. The depreciation in the U.S. dollar has benefitted some groups but harmed others. Indicate which of the groups are winners and which are losers from the standpoint of the depreciation of the U.S. dollar.
a. A. Todd, American, to visit Macedonia spring brew
b. An investment bank in Macedonia that is interested in purchasing U.S.
c. Goodyear, a U.S. based firm, selling car tires Macedonia
d. A family from Macedonia visiting relatives in the U.S
e. A firm from Macedonia selling in the US.
f. U .S. based Hewlett-Packard, which is a tech purchasing a high tech company in Macedonia
Answer:
A. Todd, American, to visit Macedonia spring brew
Explanation:
Todd is a loser due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar because now he will need more dollars to buy a comparative amount of South Korea won. His trip will now be more expensive.
An investment bank in South Korea, interested in purchasing U.S. government bonds - winner
The investment bank will exchange fewer wons for U.S. dollars than before. Buying government bonds will now be cheaper for them.
Goodyear, a firm based in the United States, sells car tires in South Korea - winner
Goodyear will likely sell more cars because for its South Korean customers, the cars are now cheaper since the value of the dollar has depreciated against the currency that they hold.

Worthington Machining must decide whether to purchase Process A with specialized metal folding equipment needing two employees to operate it or Process B with general purpose folding equipment requiring five employees. Process A requires a fixed cost of $1,430,000 and a variable cost of $14.32 per metal panel. Process B requires a fixed cost of $820,000 and a variable cost of $20.05. Process A is more automated than Process B. What is the break-even quantity between these two processes
Answer:
The indifference point is 106,457 units.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Process A:
Fixed cost= $1,430,000
Variable cost= $14.32 per metal panel.
Process B:
Fixed cost= $820,000
Variable cost= $20.05 per metal panel.
To calculate the indifference point between two processes, first, we need to formulate the total cost equation for each process:
Process A:
Total cost= 1,430,000 + 14.32*x
Process B:
Total cost= 820,000 + 20.05*x
x= number of units
Now, we need to equal both formulas and isolate x:
1,430,000 + 14.32x = 820,000 + 20.05x
610,000 = 5.73x
x= 106,457
The indifference point is 106,457 units.
Lester sold a warehouse with an original cost of $150,000 for $230,000. The warehouse had accumulated depreciation of $40,000. The recognized gain on the sale was $ . The amount of the gain that is unrecaptured Section 1250 gain is $ and will be taxed at a maximum rate of percent. The remaining $ will be taxed at a maximum rate of 20%.
Answer:
Recognized Gain:
= Selling price - Net book value
= 230,000 - (150,000 - 40,000)
= $120,000
The amount of the gain that is unrecaptured Section 1250 gain:
= Selling Price - Cost of asset - Accumulated depreciation
= 230,000 - 150,000 - 40,000
= $40,000
Tax will be maximum rate of 25% as per IRS rules.
The cash to be charged at maximum of 20% is:
= Gain - Section 1250 gain
= 120,000 - 40,000
= $80,000

Calculate the quick ratio for Smith & Sons, Inc., for 2015 and 2016.
Answer:
2015 Quick Ratio 0.54
2016 Quick Ratio 0.54
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the quick ratio for Smith & Sons, Inc., for 2015 and 2016
Using this formula
Quick Ratio = Quick assets/Current liabilities
Let plug in the formula
2015 Quick Ratio = (2,600-900)/3150
2015 Quick Ratio= 0.54
2016 Quick Ratio = (2500-750)/3,250
2016 Quick Ratio = 0.54
Therefore the quick ratio for Smith & Sons, Inc., for 2015 is 0.54 and 2016 is 0.54
Ivanhoe Inc. uses the conventional retail method to determine its ending inventory at cost. Assume the beginning inventory at cost (retail) were $383500 ($584000), purchases during the current year at cost (retail) were $3208000 ($4993600), freight-in on these purchases totaled $149500, sales during the current year totaled $4466000, and net markups were $404000. What is the ending inventory value at cost? Hint: Round intermediate calculation to 3 decimal places, e.g. 0.635 and final answer to 0 decimal places.
Answer:
$962406
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the ending inventory value at cost
Ending inventory value at cost=
($584000 + $4993600 + $404000 - $4466000)
*[($383500 + $3208000 + $149500) ÷ ($584000 + $4993600 + $404000)]
Ending inventory value at cost=$1,515,600*($3,741,000÷$5,891,600)
Ending inventory value at cost=$1,515,600*0.635
Ending inventory value at cost=$962406
Therefore the ending inventory value at cost is $962406
Teal Company is constructing a building. Construction began on February 1 and was completed on December 31. Expenditures were $3,420,000 on March 1, $2,280,000 on June 1, and $5,700,000 on December 31. Teal Company borrowed $1,900,000 on March 1 on a 5-year, 10% note to help finance construction of the building. In addition, the company had outstanding all year a 12%, 5-year, $3,800,000 note payable and an 11%, 4-year, $6,650,000 note payable. Compute avoidable interest for Teal Company. Use the weighted-average interest rate for interest capitalization purposes
Answer:
$418,790
Explanation:
Computation for the avoidable interest for Teal Company using the weighted-average interest rate for interest capitalization purposes
First step is to calculate the Expenditure for the year
Expenditure for the year
Mar-01 $3,420,000*10/12=$2,850,000
Jun-01 $2,280,000 *7 12=$1,064,000
Dec-31 $5,700,000*0/ 12=$ -
Total $ 11,400,000 $3,914,000
Second step is to compute the Weighted Average rate of all debt
Weighted Average rate of all debt:-
$3,800,000*12%=$456,000
$6,650,000*11%=$731,500
Total $10,450,000 $1,187,500
Weighted Average rate of all debt=($1,187,500 / $10,450,000)
Weighted Average rate of all debt = 11.36%
Now let compute the avoidable interest
AVOIDABLE INTEREST
$3,914,000
Less:$1,900,000*10%=$190,000
Balance$ 2,014,000*11.36% =$228,790
($3,914,000-$1,900,000=$ 2,014,000)
Avoidable Interest =$418,790
($190,000+$228,790)
Therefore the avoidable interest for Teal Company using the weighted-average interest rate for interest capitalization purposes will be $418,790

why do private and public sector cannot br looked up as two separate entities
Answer:
The private sector and the public sector cannot be viewed as separate entities because the two of them are closely intertwined.
Explanation:
The public sector defines the rules and conditions under which the private sector develops, and the private sector contributes to the finances of the private sector.
For example, a regulatory agency in an economic sector sets the rules of the mining economic sector in a country, and private mining companies abide by these rules in order to develop their business activity. Part of the revenue earned from these business activities are taken as taxes by the public sector, in order to finance the regulatory agency.
Sometimes, the public sector can also consists in public companies that can work together with private firms in common projects.
