Based on the rates computed in requirement (a), what is the profit for each service

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Toot! TiX Total

Users 17,900 24,100 42,000

Administrative costs $ 1,848,000

We need to allocate administrative costs to each product. 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= 1,848,000/42,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate=  $44 per user

Now, we allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Toot!= 44*17,900= 787,600

TiX= 44*24,100= 1,060,400

Finally, the gross profit for each service:

Toot!:

Revenue= 2,200,000

Engineering cost= (1,096,250)

Administrative cost= (787,600)

Profit= $316,150

TiX:

Revenues= 2,400,000

Engineering cost= (1,213,750)

Administrative cost= (1,060,400)

Profit= $125,850

The average price for regular gasoline at U.S. pumps fell almost 4 cents in March to​ $2.50 a gallon. The price of crude oil dropped to​ $43.46 per barrel on March​ 17, the lowest since March 2009.

Answers

Answer: C. lower the cost of producing gasoline and increase the supply of gasoline

Explanation:

Gasoline is derived from the distillation of crude oil which means that Crude oil is the main raw material in the production of gasoline. This means that if crude oil sees a reduction in price, input costs for gasoline will decrease as well.

Producers of gasoline will take advantage of this to buy more crude oil and therefore process and make more gasoline which will increase the supply of gasoline in the market and reduce its price.

Answers

Answer:

$108,900

Explanation:

Opening balance in the prepaid insurance account = $59,400

Paid for insurance = $97,000

Balance in insurance account at the end = $47,500

= $156,400

Insurance expense for 2021;

= Total amount paid - Balance at the end in the prepaid insurance account

= $156,400 - $47,500

Rufus Inc. and Hardy Company are negotiating a nontaxable exchange of business properties. Rufus’s property has a $50,000 tax basis and a $77,500 FMV. Hardy’s property has a $60,000 tax basis and a $90,000 FMV. Which party to the exchange must pay boot to make the exchange work? How much boot must be paid? Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Rufus realize and recognize on the exchange, and what tax basis will Rufus take in the property acquired? Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Hardy realize and recognize on the exchange and what tax basis will Hardy take in the property acquired?

Answers

Answer:

Which party to the exchange must pay boot to make the exchange work?

Rufus must pay boot since the FMV of its property is less than the FMV of Hardy's property.

How much boot must be paid?

$90,000 - $77,500 = $12,500

Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Rufus realize and recognize on the exchange, and what tax basis will Rufus take in the property acquired?

Rufus doesn't have any gain, and the tax basis for the new asset will be $50,000 + $12,500 = $62,500

Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Hardy realize and recognize on the exchange and what tax basis will Hardy take in the property acquired?

Since Hardy's property basis is $60,000 and it would be receiving $50,000 (Rufus's property) + $12,500 = $62,500, then it must recognize a $2,500 gain. The basis of Hardy's new property will be $62,500.

4. Sectoral shifts, frictional unemployment, and job searches Suppose the world price of steel falls substantially. The demand for labor among steel-producing firms in Pennsylvania will . The demand for labor among automobile-producing firms in Michigan, for which steel is an input, will . The temporary unemployment resulting from such sectoral shifts in the economy is best described as unemployment. Suppose the government wants to reduce this type of unemployment. Which of the following policies would help achieve this goal? Check all that apply. Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively Establishing government-run employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies Increasing the benefits offered to unemployed workers through the government's unemployment insurance program

Answers

Answer:

decrease

increase

structural unemployment

Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively

Establishing government-run employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies

Explanation:

If the world price of steel falls, the profits that can be earned from producing steel would fall. This would make steel-producing firms cutback on production. If they do this, they would lead less labour, so the demand for labour would fall.

The decrease in the price of steel would make purchasing steel by automobile companies cheaper. This would lead to a rise in production and as a result an increase in the demand for labour.

Structural unemployment occurs when there is a mismatch between the skills of labour and the jobs available.  Measures taken to increase information on available jobs would reduce this type of unemployment

Jake owns a company called Boat Builders, LLC and one evening he took several of his employees out after work to a bar. After eating and drinking for several hours Jake invited them back to the Boat Builders premises so he and some of the employees could show off a boat they’d been working on. After arriving at Boat Builders they all continued to drink and two of the employees, Tyler and Mark, got into an argument. When Tyler went to use the bathroom Mark attacked him from behind causing him to lose consciousness and break a tooth. Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it and went to check on Tyler. Tyler sat up and asked what happened and Jake told him that Mark had attacked him from behind. About an hour passed by during which time Jake went out to his car and got his phone so he could play music for everyone. After an hour, Tyler and Mark began to argue again and they walked outside into the Boat Builders parking lot where Mark attacked Tyler again. Mark left and was later arrested for aggravated battery. Tyler regained consciousness after 10 minutes and drove home even though he was badly injured.
Does Tyler have a negligence claim against Boat Builders? Why or why not? A complete answer will be at least 5 sentences and mention critical facts.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, because Boat Builders, LLC failed to exercise a reasonable standard of care at their premises.

Explanation:

Remember, we are told, "Jake... invited them back to the Boat Builders premises," meaning they (Boat Bilders, LLC) had a duty of care responsibility toward all of his employees present.

Note we are told, "Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it," this was a moment that shows Jake's negligence because as the owner of Boat Builders he had a duty of care to ensure no one is hurt without their own fault within their premises (which included their "parking lot").  

Kent Manufacturing produces a product that sells for $64.00 and has variable costs of $35.00 per unit. Fixed costs are $348,000. Kent can buy a new production machine that will increase fixed costs by $20,500 per year, but will decrease variable costs by $4.50 per unit.

Compute the contribution margin per unit if the machine is purchased.

Answers

Answer:

The contribution margin per unit is $33.50

Explanation:

The contribution margin per unit in the case when the machine is purchased is shown below:

= Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

= $64 - ($35 - $4.50)

= $64 - $30.50

=  $33.50

hence, the contribution margin per unit is $33.50 and the same is to be considered

Relay Corporation manufactures batons. Relay can manufacture 300,000 batons a year at a variable cost of$750,000 and a fixed cost of $450,000. Based on Relay's predictions, 240,000 batons will be sold at the regular price of $5.00 each. In addition, a special order was placed for 60,000 batons to be sold at a 40% discount off the regular price. Required: By what amount would income before income taxes be increased or decreased as a result of the special order

Answers

Answer:

The total rise in income is $30,000

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Sale price     3     {5 × (1 - 0.40)

Less: Incremental cost  2.5   ($750,000 ÷ 300,000)

Increase in income per unit   0.50

Divide by Total units    60,000

Total increase in income   $30,000

Hence, the total rise in income is $30,000 and the same is to be considered

The total rise in income before tax is $30,000 as a result of a special offer when the Relay Corporation manufactures batons.

What is income?

Income is defined as the consumption and saving opportunity achieved by a commodity within a nominal time structure, which is commonly represented in monetary words. Income is challenging to describe conceptually, and the explanation may be further across areas.

Computation of change in income:

According to the given information,

Regular price = $5.

Discount Rate=40%

Then sales price would be:

[tex]\text{Sale Price}= \text{Regular Price}(1- \text{Discount Rate})\\\\\text{Sale Price}=\$5 \text (1 - 0.40)\\\\\text{Sale Price}= \$3[/tex]

Then the incremental cost is:

[tex]\text{Incremental Cost}=\dfrac{ \text{Variable Cost}}{\text{Units Produced}}\\\\ \text{Incremental Cost}=\dfrac{\$750,000}{\$300,000}\\\\ \text{Incremental Cost}=2.5[/tex]

Increase in income per unit:

[tex]\text{Increase In Income}=\text{Sales Price}- \text{Incremental Cost}\\\\\text{Increase In Income}=\$3-\$2.5\\\\\text{Increase In Income}=0.50[/tex]  

Therefore, the increase in income is :

[tex]=\text{Per unit Increase In Income}\times\text{Total Units}\\\\=0.50\times60,000\\\\=\$30,000[/tex]

Which kind of monetary policy would you expect in response to high inflation:

a. Expansionary
b. Contractionary

Answers

Answer:

B. Contractionary Monetary Policy

Explanation:

According to Investopedia, inflation is a quantitative measure of the rate at which average price level of selected goods and services in an economy increases over a period of time which causes the purchasing power of the currency to fall.

One popular method of controlling high inflation is the Contractionary Monetary Policy. The aim of the contractionary monetary policy is to cut the supply of money within an economy by decreasing bond prices and increasing interest rates through the central bank.

When the Central Bank increases their interests rates, banks become forced to increase their rates as well which discourages consumers from borrowing and makes saving more attractive.

These help to cut down spending, causes prices of goods and services to drop and consequently causes inflation to slow down.

A company distributes a product that sells for $50 per unit. Variable expenses are $10 per unit, and fixed expenses total $15,000 annually. Assume that the company sold 4,000 units last year. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price, combined with a $30,000 increase in advertising expenditures, would increase annual unit sales by 50%. If these changes were made, by how much would net operating income increase or decrease?

Answers

Answer:

Income will increase by $20,000.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the current income:

Current income= 4,000*(50 - 10) - 15,000= $145,000

Now, the new selling price, fixed costs, and sales in units:

Selling price= 50*0.9= $45

Fixed costs= $45,000

Sales= 4,000*1.5= 6,000

New income= 6,000*(45 - 10) - 45,000= $165,000

Difference= 165,000 - 145,000= 20,000

Income will increase by $20,000.

Creswell Corporation's fixed monthly expenses are $30,000 and its contribution margin ratio is 63%. Assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change, what is the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month when sales are $92,000?
a. $27,960.b. $62,000.c. $57,960.d. $4,040.

Answers

Answer:

Net income= $27,960

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $30,000

contribution margin ratio= 0.63

Sales= $92,000

First, we need to calculate the total contribution margin:

Total contribution margin= 92,000*0.63= 57,960

Now, the net income:

Net income= 57,960 - 30,000

Net income= $27,960

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1A. For investment X, given 6% discount rate, 6700 PMT, N= 9 years

Present value of investment X= 6700* PVIF using 6%, 9 years

= $45751.34

For investment Y, given 6% discount rate, 9200 PMT, N= 5 years

Present value of investment Y =9200*PVIF using 6%, 9 years

=$38753.75

1B. Investment X from the above has higher present value

2A. For investment X, given 22% discount rate, 6700 PMT, N = 9 years

Present value of investment X

=6700*PVIF using 22% ,9 years

= $25368.11

For investment Y, given 22% discount rate, 9200 PMT, N = 5 years

Present value of investment X

= $26345.49

2B. Investment Y from the above has higher present value.

Speicher sells sports shoes and formal shoes. Sports shoes sell for $110 each and cost $50 in variable expenses to make. Formal shoes sell for $220 and cost $100 in variable expenses to make. Speicher’s fixed expenses are $50,000. If 35% of his revenues are from sports shoes, what is Speicher’s weighted average contribution margin ratio? Provide your answer in decimal form (i.e. 65.2% = 0.652) and to three decimal places. Do not round intermediary calculations.

Answers

Answer:

weighted contribution margin ratio = 0.545

Explanation:

contribution margin of sport shoes = $110 - $50 = $60

contribution margin ratio of sport shoes = $60 / $110 = 0.545454

contribution margin of formal shoes = $220 - $100 = $120

contribution margin ratio of sport shoes = $120 / $220 = 0.545454

35% of total revenues come from sport shoes

weighted contribution margin ratio (it is the same for both products) = 0.545454 = 0.545

= $19,100

Therefore, the cost of goods sold for the year is $19,100

We sell to a customer paying with Visa and the fee is 2%. Part of the transaction would include a debit to:

Answers

Answer:

there are no available options, but the complete journal entry to record a credit card sale is:

Dr Cash account 98% of sale

Dr Credit card fees 2% of sale

    Cr Sales revenue 100% of sale

Explanation:

Since VISA payments are automatic, you can debit cash directly. There is no need to debit accounts receivable and then once the payment is confirmed, debit cash. Some credit cards do not pay automatically, and in those cases you should debit accounts receivable.

Instead of credit card fees, some people use credit card discount, or credit card expense, but all these accounts are basically the same. They are all expense accounts.

Products should be specified by brand because: a. price levels of brand items are low b. the number of potential suppliers is restricted c. it is difficult to develop accurate specifications for an item d. all of the above e. a and b above.

Answers

Answer:

C. It is difficult to develop accurate specifications for an item.

Explanation:

A product can be defined as any physical object or material that typically satisfy and meets the demands, needs or wants of customers. Some examples of a product are mobile phones, television, microphone, microwave oven, bread, pencil, freezer, beverages, soft drinks etc.

Generally, these products are manufactured and distributed through different marketing channels to various wholesalers or retailers before it gets to the consumers or customers.

Hence, each product should be distinguished from another through its brand name in order to enhance easier identification by the customers.

Products should be specified by brand because it is difficult to develop accurate specifications for an item. Thus, when a supplier such as a retailer or wholesaler wishes to place an order to a manufacturer, he or she should specify the order by brand.
