Suppose that applying for membership in the European Monetary Union (EMU) is expensive, so three hypothetical countries, Baltia, Polsha, and Atlantida, have come to you with their relevant data and want advice on if they should apply to join the EMU. Suppose that the average inflation rate of the three European countries with the lowest inflation rates is 3.0%, and the average long-term interest rate of those countries is 3.2%.
Evaluate the characteristics of Baltia, Polsha, and Atlantida presented in the following table using the Maastricht convergence criteria. Then, complete the bottom row by identifying whether each country is eligible to become an EMU member.
Criteria Baltia Polsha Atlantida
Inflation 4.5% 4.0% 4.1%
Long-term interest rates 5.0% 4.0% 3.0%

Answer 1

Answer:

European Monetary Union Membership

All three countries are eligible to enter into the European Monetary Union, having met all the Maastricht convergence criteria.

Note that Baltia devalued its currency in the last three years and not two as set by the exchange rate criterion.

Explanation:

a) Maastricht convergence criteria are:

1. Price stability: the inflation rate not more than 1.5 point of average best three.

2. Deficit not more than 3% of GDP.

3. Government debt must not exceed 60% of GDP.

4. Exchange rate: No currency devaluation in last two years.

5. Long-term interest rates: not more than 2% higher than those of the three best performing Member states in terms of price stability.

Answers

Answer: Debit Cash $2,880; debit Factoring Fee Expense $120; credit Accounts Receivable $3,000

Explanation:

Based on the information given, cash will be debited in the amount of:

= (100% - 4%) × $3000

= 96% × $3000

= 0.96 × $3000

= $2880

There'll also be a debit in the factoring fee in the amount of:

= 4% × $3000

= 0.04 × $3000

= $120

There'll be a credit in account receivable by $3000.

Therefore, the journal entry will be:

Debit Cash $2880

Debit Factoring fee = $120

Credit Account receivable = $3000

Which method would NOT result in Montgomery accounting for the social cost of running the power plant

Answers

Answer:

Subsidize Montgomery for every three-eyed fish they find in the pond.

Explanation:

From the question we are informed about Montgomery who owns a nuclear power plant in the town of Springfield. His power plant dumps substantial quantities of radioactive waste into the local pond, which has given rise to a mutant guppy fish population with three eyes.The town decides to have Montgomery do something about the externality. In this case the method that would NOT result in Montgomery accounting for the social cost of running the power plant is Subsidize Montgomery for every three-eyed fish they find in the pond. Social cost can be regarded as addition of private costs that comes from a transaction as well as costs that is been imposed on the consumers as a result of exposure to transaction that did not compensated or charged for. It is addition of both private and external costs. Therefore, if there is subsidy for three-eyed fish will prevent him from social cost

Interest expense          10,075

Total expenses      $1,184,575

Net income             $765,425

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Selling price per unit = $25

Forecast sales units:

January 40,000

February 60,000

March 50,000

Total sales for the quarter = 150,000 units

Sales revenue = $3,750,000 (150,000 * $25)

Cost of goods sold = $12 per unit

Cost of goods sold = $1,800,000 (150,000 * $12)

Commission = 10% of sales dollars

Commission = $375,000 ($3,750,000 * 10%)

Rent = $17,000 per month (Total for quarter = $51,000)

Advertising = 11% of sales dollars

Advertising = $412,500 ($3,750,000 * 11%)

Office salaries = $74,000 per month (Total for quarter = $222,000)

Depreciation = $55,000 per month (Total for quarter = $165,000

Interest expense = 13% of $310,000 annually

Interest expense for the quarter = $10,075 ($310,000 * 13% * 1/4)

Answers

Answer:

It is cheaper to make the units in-house.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Make in-house:

Direct material $ 8

Direct labor 24

Overhead 40

Total costs per unit $72

Buying price= $60

We need to determine which option provides the lower cost. Because 40% of overhead will remain constant, we have to take it out of the equation.

Production cost:

Direct material $ 8

Direct labor 24

Overhead= 40*0.6= 24

Total production cost= $56

It is cheaper to make the units in-house.

Expenditures for major additions, improvements and flight equipment modifications are capitalized when such costs are determined to extend the useful life of the asset or are part of the cost of acquiring the asset. Expenditures for equipment overhaul costs of engines or airframes prior to their operational use are capitalized as part of the cost of such assets as they are costs required to ready the asset for its intended use.

Assume straight-line depreciation was used. During 2011, the following expenditures related to the building were made:

a. Ordinary repairs and maintenance expenditures for the year, $7,000 cash.
b. Extensive and major repairs to the roof of the building, $122,000 cash. These repairs were completed on December 31, 2011.
c. The new wing was completed on December 31, 2011, at a cash cost of $230,000.

Required:
Apply the policies of FedEx.

Answers

Answer:

FedEx

Applying the policies of FedEx:

a and b. Total repairs and maintenance expenses to be charged to the income statement = $129,000 ($7,000 + $122,000).

c. The building extension cost of $230,000 will be capitalized.

The Building will now have a total cost value of $950,000 Accumulated Depreciation of $396,000.

Therefore, the net book value of building at the end of December 31, 2011 will be $554,000 ($950,000 - $396,000).

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Cost of existing building = $720,000

Book value of existing building = $360,000 ($720,000 * 10/20)

Transactions and adjustments during 2011:

a. Repairs and Maintenance Expenses $7,000 Cash $7,000

b. Repairs and Maintenance Expenses $122,000 Cash $122,000

c. Building extension $230,000 Cash $230,000

d. Depreciation Expense on existing building = $36,000 ($720,000/20).

e. Accumulated Depreciation on Building, Dec. 31, 2011 = $396,000 ($360,000 + $36,000)

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

Answers

Answer:

Direct labour cost budget= $2,610

Explanation:

The direct labor cost budget is a function of the production product budget. The quantity of the product budgeted to be produced would determine the labor cost budget.

Direct labour budget = Production budget × standard hours × standard labour rate per hour

Standard hour = a quarter direct labour = 1/4 hour

Direct labour budget = 870 × 0.1× $12= $2610

Direct labour cost budget= $2,610

At an interest rate of 8% per year, the present worth of Method B is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

At an interest rate of 8% per year, the present worth of Method B is closest to:

=  $108,856.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                      Method A     Method B

Initial investment            $80,000     $120,000

Salvage value                    15,000        40,000

Period of investment       3 years        3 years

Annual operating costs $30,000       $8,000

Interest rate per year           8%               8%

Present value annuity factor = 2.577

Discounted present value factor = 0.794

Present worth:

                                                            Method B    Method A

Initial investment cost ($120,000 * 1) $120,000     $80,000

Operating costs = ($8,000 * 2.577) =     20,616         77,310

Salvage value = $40,000 * 0.794 =       (31,760)        (11,910)

Present worth =                                  $108,856    $145,400

b) Using the present worth analysis technique, Method B should be used to produce the expansion anchors, as it costs less than Method A.  The present worth analysis method is an equivalence method of discounting a project's cash flows to a single present value.  With this analysis, it becomes easier to determine the project that should be accepted or rejected based on their economic realities.

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

The following are budgeted data: January February March Sales in units 16,900 23,800 19,900 Production in units 19,900 20,900 20,000 One pound of material is required for each finished unit. The inventory of materials at the end of each month should equal 25% of the following month's production needs. Purchases of raw materials for February would be budgeted to be:

Answers

Answer:

Purchases= 20,675 pounds

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production:

Feb= 20,900

Mar= 20,000

One pound of material is required for each finished unit.

Desired ending inventory= 25% of the following month's production needs.

To calculate the purchase required for February, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases= 20,900 + (20,000*0.25) - (20,900*0.25)

Purchases= 20,675

Answers

Answer:

1.49

Explanation:

Calculation to determine Transic's current ratio for 2017

Using this formula

2017 Current ratio=2017 Total Current Assets /2017 Current Liabilities

Let plug in the formula

2017 Current ratio=$107,000/$ 72,000

2017 Current ratio=1.486

2017 Current ratio=1.49 (Approximately)

Therefore Transic's current ratio for 2017 is 1.49

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.

Answers

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

Short Company purchased land by paying $11,000 cash on the purchase date and agreed to pay $11,000 for each of the next six years beginning one-year from the purchase date. Short's incremental borrowing rate is 7%. On the balance sheet as of the purchase date, after the initial $11,000 payment was made, the liability reported is closest to: (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

Answers

Answer: $‭52,431.5‬0

Explanation:

The liability reported will be the present value of the six payments of $11,000.

Since this is a constant amount, it will be an annuity:

= 11,000 * Present value interest factor of an annuity, 6 years, 7%

= 11,000 * 4.7665

= $‭52,431.5‬0

Any difference between this and any options given is down to rounding errors. Pick the closest figure.

a. $29.33.
b. $29.00.
c. $31.78.
d. $35.51.

Answers

Answer:

$31.28

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for the first department for the month is closest to:

First step is to calculate the Total Conversion Cost

Total Conversion Cost=$253,900+$18,700

Total Conversion Cost=$$272,600

Second step is to calculate the Equivalent Units

Equivalent Units =( 7,700 x 100%) + (1,700 + 8,900 - 7,700 ×35%)

Equivalent Units =( 7,700 x 100%) + (2,900 x 35 %)

Equivalent Units =7,700+1,015

Equivalent Units = 8,715 units

Now let calculate the Cost per Equivalent Units using this formula

Cost per Equivalent Unit = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units

Cost per Equivalent Unit = $272,600 ÷ 8,715 units

Cost per Equivalent Unit = $31.28

Therefore The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for the first department for the month is closest to:$31.28

Using the supply and demand analysis of the market for reserves, indicate what happens to the federal funds rate, borrowed reserves, and nonborrowed reserves, holding everything else constant, under the following situations. a. The economy is surprisingly strong, leading to an increase in the amount of checkable deposits. b. Banks expect an unusually large increase in with-drawals from checking deposit accounts in the future. c. The Fed raises the target federal funds rate. d. The Fed raises the interest rate on reserves above the current equilibrium federal funds rate. e. The Fed reduces reserve requirements. f. The Fed reduces reserve requirements and then off-sets this action by conducting an open market sale of securities.

Answers

Answer:

The federal fund rate will increase, non borrowed reserves will decrease and no change in borrowed reserves.

Explanation:

Federal fund rate is an interest rate which banks pay off each night on depository funds. This rate can be above the discount rate because banks prefer to pay higher market rate than to borrow from Fed. When the fed raises target federal fund than federal fund rate will increase causing a decline in no borrowed reserves.

Krepps Corporation produces a single product. Last year, Krepps manufactured 20,000 units and sold 15,000 units. Production costs for the year were as follows: Direct materials $170,000 Direct labor $110,000 Variable manufacturing overhead $200,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead $240,000 Sales totaled $825,000 for the year, variable selling and administrative expenses totaled $108,000, and fixed selling and administrative expenses totaled $165,000. There was no beginning inventory. Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. Under variable costing, the company's net operating income for the year would be:

Answers

Answer:

Under variable costing, the company's net operating income for the year would be $60,000 lower than under absorption costing.

Explanation:

The computation of the operating income under variable costing is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit is

= $240,000 ÷ 20,000 units

= $12 per unit

Ending Inventory units is

= 20,000 units - 15,000 units

= 5,000 units

Now Cost of ending Inventory deferred under absorption costing is

= 5,000 units × $12

= $60,000

So, the second option is correct

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.

Answers

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
