Explanation:
The assigning and allocation of costs in an organization can be defined as essential processes to assist in the management of organizational budgets, being characterized as essential activities for the company's accounting department.
An activity-based costing system can be initiated according to the identification of the scope of organizational projects, and then carry out an appropriate planning so that the costs of the company in relation to all organizational systems are identified and then eliminate subjectivity and carry out a more precise cost management and greater control, which guarantees a decision making more directed to the organizational needs, focused on reducing unnecessary costs.
The relationship between the cost management system and the Just-In-Time and quality management systems is that these two systems are focused on reducing waste and maintaining quality in all organizational processes, and controlling of the organizational costs realized by a cost management system will reduce the waste of undue costs of the company, increase its efficiency and quality, as this system assists in the control and coordination of the systems, which results in an improvement of all organizational processes.
A clothing manufacturer produces clothing in five locations in the United States. In a move to vertical integration, the company is planning a new fabric production plant that will supply fabric to all five clothing plants. The clothing plants have been located on a coordinate system as follows: Location (X,Y) A 7,2 B 4,7 C 5,5 D 6,2 E 8,4 If the amount of fabric shipped to each plant are equal, what is the optimal location for the fabric plant?
Answer:
(6,4)
Explanation:
The computation of optimal location for the fabric plant is shown below:-
X Y
A 7 2
B 4 7
C 5 5
D 6 2
E 8 4
Total 30 20
[tex]\bar X = \frac{Total\ of\ X}{Total\ number\ of\ locations}[/tex]
[tex]\bar X = \frac{30}{5}[/tex]
= 6
[tex]\bar Y = \frac{Total\ of\ Y}{Total\ number\ of\ locations}[/tex]
[tex]\bar Y = \frac{20}{5}[/tex]
= 4
So, the optimal location for the fabric plant is (6,4)
Sort the items below into two main categories: whether demand for each type of good is relatively elastic or relatively inelastic.
A. Goods that are narrowly defined.
B. Goods on which consumers spend a small share of their budget.
C. Consumers have a long time to adjust to a change in price.
D. Goods that have a large number of available substitutes.
E. Goods that are necessities.
Answer:
A. Relatively elastic
B. Relatively inelastic
C. Relatively elastic
D. Relatively elastic
E. Relatively inelastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes
Demand is inelastic if there's little or no change in quantity demanded when the price of the good changes.
If Consumers have a long time to adjust to a change in price, demand is usually elastic because consumers would have enough time to adjust to price changes. For example, if the price of the good has increased and the consumer has enough time to adjust to the price change, the consumer would have enough time to find cheaper suitable substitutes.
The elasticity of demand for necessities is usually inelastic because consumers have no choice but to buy the product. For example, water is considered a necessity. If the price of a bottle of water increases, consumers have no choice but to consume water so they would keep buying the bottle of water despite the increase in price.
Goods that have many substitutes usually have an elastic demand because the good can be easily replaced with the numerous substitutes available.
Goods on which consumers spend a small share of their budget usually have an inelastic demand. For example, if you earn $500,000 and you usually buy a product for 10 cents and the price increases to 15 cents, you would probably not stop purchasing the product as a result of the price increase since it constitutes a negligible part of your budget.
Goods that are narrowly defined have an elastic demand. For example, there are many substitutes for bread but there are no subsituites for food.

Twinte Cars, a California corporation, has internal corporate requirements that stipulate a three-year payroll document retention period. It enters into a contract with an international company that mandates a six-year payroll document retention requirement. How should Twinte Cars balance these requirements
Answer:
-The period for retention could be up to 8 years depending upon the circumstances.
-The benefits and records may be called to evidence
Explanation:
In this scenario Twinte cars needs to balance internal requirement of 3 year payroll document retention period and the contract if 6 year payroll retention with the international company. Usually foreign companies have a higher retention requirement.
A way out of this predicament will be to get a new retention period of 8 years. This will satisfy requirements of the international company.

Account A pays simple interest.
Future ValueA = Principal + Interest
= Principal + [(Principal x Interest Rate) x Investment Period]
= $2,000 + [($2,000 x 996) x 3 years]
Future Value of Account X Note: Account X pays compound interest.
Future Valuex = Present Value x Interest Rate Factor
= Present Valuex(1 +Interest Rate)n years
= $2,000 x (1 + 0.09)3
To find the interest rate factor, you can use three different ways, including multiplying it out:
Interest Factor(1 0.09) x (1 0.09) x (1 0.09)1.2950

4 1.2625 1.3108 1.3605 1.4116 1.4641 1.5181
1)
Future value paying simple interest = Principal + [( principal * interest) * investment period]
Future value paying simple interest = $2,000 + [ ( $2,000 * 9%) * 3]
Future value paying simple interest = $2,000 + 540
Future value paying simple interest = $2,540
2)
Future value paying compound interest = Present value * ( 1 + interest)n
Future value paying compound interest = $2,000 * ( 1 + 0.09)3
Future value paying compound interest = $2,000 * 1.295029
Future value paying compound interest = $2,590.058
3)
Difference = $2,590.058 - 2,540
Difference = $50.058
The auto repair shop of Quality Motor Company uses standards to control the labor time and labor cost in the shop. The standard labor cost for a motor tune-up is given below:
Standard Hours Standard Rate Standard Cost
Motor tune-up 2.50 $36.00 $90.00
The record showing the time spent in the shop last week on motor tune-ups has been misplaced. However, the shop supervisor recalls that 230 tune-ups were completed during the week, and the controller recalls the following variance data relating to tune-ups:
Labor rate variance $ 900 F
Labor spending variance $ 249 F
Required:
1. Determine the number of actual labor-hours spent on tune-ups during the week.
2. Determine the actual hourly rate of pay for tune-ups last week. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard Hours Standard Rate Standard Cost
Motor tune-up 2.50 $36.00 $90.00
230 tune-ups were completed during the week
Labor rate variance $ 900 F
Labor spending variance of $ 249 F
1) First, we need to calculate the actual hours:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
249= (2.5*230 - actual quantity)*36
249= 20,700 - 36AQ
-20,451= -36AQ
20,451/36= Actual quantity
568= actual quantity
2) We need to calculate the actual rate:
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
900= (36 - Actual Rate)*568
900= 20,448 - 568Actual Rate
19,548/568= Actual Rate
$34.42= Actual Rate
For the next 2 questions, use the financials of Acme Corporation. After adjusting revenue for accounts receivable and deferred revenue, how much cash did Acme generate from revenue for the nine months ending September 30, 2017
Answer: B. $892.1 million
Explanation:
The Revenue was $939,393 million
When calculating how much cash was generated any increase to the Accounts Receivables is removed from the revenue because it signifies that more sales were made on credit and so have not given the business cash yet.
Any increase in Deferred Revenue must be added because this is Cash that has been given to the business but for accrual purposes cannot be recognized yet. Bottomline however, the Cash has been received.
Increase in Receivables = 309,196 - 221,504
= $87,692 million
Increase in Deferred Revenue= 374,730 - 334,358
= $40,372 million
The Cash generated is therefore;
= 939,393 - 87,692 + 40,372
= $892,073
= $892.1 million

Marigold Corp. budgeted costs for 70000 linear feet of block are: Fixed manufacturing costs$24000 per month Variable manufacturing costs$16 per linear foot Marigold installed 40000 linear feet of block during March. How much is budgeted total manufacturing costs in March
Answer:
$664,000
Explanation:
The computation of the total budgeted manufacturing cost is shown below:
Total manufacturing costs = Variable manufacturing cost + Fixed manufacturing cost
= ($16 × 40,000 units ) + $24,000
= $664,000
We simply added the variable manufacturing cost and the Fixed manufacturing cost so that the total budgeted manufacturing cost could come and the same is to be considered
Urban Bloom, Inc.'s books show an ending cash balance of $16,000 before preparing the bank reconciliation. Given the bank reconciliation shows outstanding checks of $4,200, deposits in transit of $3,200, NSF check of $220, and interest earned on the bank account of $130, the company's up-to-date ending cash balance equals:
Answer:
$15,910
Explanation:
Calculation for Urban Bloom, Inc.'s company's up-to-date ending cash balance
Using this formula
Up-to-date ending cash balance = Ending cash balance per books + Interest received from bank - NSF check
Hence:
=16,000+130-220
=15,910
Therefore the company's up-to-date ending cash balance equals: $15,910

Suppose you are an analyst in the oil refinery industry and are responsible for estimating the equilibrium price and quantity of home heating oil. To do so, you must consider factors that can affect the supply of and demand for heating oil.
Determinants of the demand for heating oil include household income, the price of an oil furnace (a complement to heating oil) and the price of natural gas (a substitute for heating oil). Determinants of the supply of heating oil include the cost of crude oil and the cost of refining crude oil into home heating oil.
1. Suppose that all of the determinants of the supply and demand for heating oil are equal to their initital values. The equilibrium quantity in this market is ___ barrels of heating oil per day,
A. 60,000
B. 50,000
C. 70,000
D. 80,000
E. 40,000
2. and the equilibrium price is ____ per barrel.
A. $40
B. $70
C. $60
D. $50
E. $80
Answer:
1. 80,000
2. $40 per barrel
Explanation:
1. As we can see from the table provided The equilibrium quantity in this market is 80,000 barrels of heating oil per day, as quantity demanded match quantity supplied
2. As we can see from the table provided The equilibrium price is $40 per barrel as in this cost there is an intersection of quantity demanded and quantity supplied. In other words the equilibrium price and quantity could be find out when the quantity demanded equal to quantity supplied
Which of the following, if true, would illustrate why price indexes such as the CSPI might overstate inflation in the cost of going to college? Check all that apply. The quality and design of calculators improved dramatically from 2017 to 2019. For example, calculators made in 2019 accept memory cards, whereas those made in 2017 do not, but this quality change is hard to measure. A new, safe method of memory enhancement became available for purchase. Professors required each student to buy 10 textbooks, regardless of the price. As the price of textbooks increased, more and more students turned to the used-book market or chose not to buy textbooks at all, instead using the copies on reserve in the library.
Answer:
- The quality and design of calculators improved dramatically from 2017 to 2019.
- A new, safe method of memory enhancement became available for purchase.
- As the price of textbooks increased, more and more students turned to the used-book market or chose not to buy textbooks at all, instead of using the copies on reserve in the library.
Explanation:
Remember, regarding the prices for the textbooks the factors of demand applies that is why when prices increase, it might result in an overstating; which means inflation in the cost of going to college.
Also, just as improvements in the memory of calculators involves additional expenses, it results in inflation. Overall, all these circumstances can result in such inflation.
The true statements are
The quality and design of calculators improved dramatically from 2017 to 2019.

You want to have $1.5 million in real dollars in a retirement account when you retire in 40 years. The inflation rate is 2.7% and the nominal rate of return on your investment is 10%. What real amount must you deposit each year in the account to achieve your goal?
Answer:
Annual deposit= $6,952.82
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
You want to have $1.5 million in real dollars in a retirement account when you retire in 40 years.
Inflation rate= 2.7%
Interest rate= 10%
First, we need to deduct from the interest rate the inflation rate.
Real interest rate= 0.10 - 0.027= 0.073
Now, using the following formula, we can determine the annual deposit:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
A= (1,500,000*0.073) / [(1.073^40)-1]
A= $6,952.82

a. 4 years
b. 3.55 years
c. 2.00 years
d. 4.65 years
Answer:
b. 3.55 years
Explanation:
The payback period is basically the amount of time an investor needs to recover his/her initial investment.
lets assume initial investment = $1,000
when you calculate IRR, the present value of the cash flows = initial investment
the present value of an annuity for 4 years and 5% is 3.5460
$1,000 = yearly cash flow x 3.546
yearly cash flow = $1,000 / 3.546 = $282
payback period = $1,000 / 282 = 3.546 years ≈ 3.55 years

A firm sells two products, Regular and Ultra. For every unit of Regular sold, two units of Ultra are sold. The firm's total fixed costs are $1,947,000. Selling prices and cost information for both products follow. What is the firm's break-even point in units of Regular and Ultra?
Answer:
the firm must sell 37,443 units of Regular and 74,886 units of Ultra
Explanation:
Regular - unit sales price= $20; Variables costs per unit = $8
Ultra - unit sales price= $24; Variables costs per unit = $4
combined contribution margin:
1 unit of regular = $20 - $8 = $122 units of ultra = $48 - $8 = $40total = $52break even point = total fixed costs / combined contribution margin = $1,947,000 / $52 = 37,442.31 ≈ 37,443 units
the firm must sell 37,443 units of Regular and 74,886 units of Ultra

Explanation:
The early part of the 21st century saw shocking financially improper activities by companies such as WorldCom and Enron exposed to the world. Investor Confidence was shaken and the government needed to do something to restore it.

On May 31 of the current year, the assets and liabilities of Riser, Inc. are as follows: Cash $16,800; Accounts Receivable, $7,050; Supplies, $700; Equipment, $11,750; Accounts Payable, $9,000. What is the amount of owner's equity as of May 31 of the current year?
Answer:
$27,300
Explanation:
Riser Inc. had the following liabilities and assets on May 31 of the current year
Cash= $16,800
Account receivables= $7,050
Supplies= $700
Equipment= $11,750
Account payable= $9,000
Since Assets = Liabilities+ stockholder's equity
The stockholder's equity can be calculated as follows
Cash+Account receivables+Supplies+Equipment= Account payable+stockholder's equity
$16,800+$7,050+$700+$11,750=$9,000+stockholder's equity
$36,300=$9,000+stockholder's equity
Stockholder's equity= $36,300-$9,000
Stockholder's equity= $27,300
Hence the amount of owner's equity as of May 31 of the current year is $27,300

Both are qualified charitable organizations. Disregarding percentage limitations, Zeke's charitable contribution deduction for the year is
Answer:
$56,250.
Explanation:
So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which we will use to solve this particular problem or Question;
=>" Used clothing of taxpayer and his family (all acquired more than a year ago) = $1,350 for Basis and Fair market value = $ 375 "
=> "Stock in ABC, Inc., held as an investment for 15 months 12,000 for Basis and 10,875 for fair market value."
=>" Stock in MNO, Inc., held as an investment for 11 months 15,000 for Basis and 18,000 for fair market value. "
=> "Real estate held as an investment for two years 15,000 for basis and 30,000 for fair market value."
Zeke's charitable contribution deduction for the year can be calculated by adding the the fair markets values of :
Used clothing of taxpayer and his family (all acquired more than a year ago) + Stock in ABC, Inc., held as an investment for 15 months + Real estate held as an investment for two years
Then, the result gotten will be added to the Basis value for Stock in MNO, Inc., held as an investment for 11 months. Thus;
$ 375 + 10,875 + 30,000 = 41,250.
41,250 + 15,000 = $56,250.
Hahn Flooring Company uses a perpetual inventory system.
A. Sales returns of $97,650 and merchandise returns of $48,100 are estimated for the current year's sales.
B. The inventory account has a balance of $673,400, while physical inventory indicates that $663,800 of merchandise is on hand.
Journalize the December 31 adjusting entries based on the above transactions. Assume that the inventory shrinkage is a normal amount. Refer to the Chart of Accounts for exact wording of account titles.
Answer and Explanation:
The adjusting journal entries are as follows
1. Sales $97,650
To Customer refunds payable $97,650
(Being the sales return is recorded)
For recording this we debited the sales as it reduced the sales and credited the customer refund payable as it increased the liabilities
2. Estimated Returns inventory $48,100
To Cost of goods sold $48,100
(Being the merchandise return is recorded)
For recording this we debited the estimated returns inventory and credited the cost of goods sold
3. Cost of goods sold $9,600
To Inventory $9,600
(Being the inventory shrinkage is recorded)
For recording this we debited the cost of goods sold as it increased the expenses and credited the inventory as it reduced the assets
The computation is shown below:
= Balance of inventory account - physical inventory merchandise on hand
= $673,400 - $663,800
= $9,600
Trade-Off Theory. Smoke and Mirrors currently has EBIT of $25,000 and is all-equity- financed. EBIT is expected to stay at this level indefinitely. The firm pays corporate taxes equal to 35% of taxable income. The discount rate for the firm’s projects is 10%.(LO3)
a. What is the market value of the firm?
b. Now assume the firm issues $50,000 of debt paying interest of 6% per year, using the proceeds to retire equity. The debt is expected to be permanent. What will happen to the total value of the firm (debt plus equity)?
c. Recompute your answer to (b) under the following assumptions: The debt issue raises the probability of bankruptcy. The firm has a 30% chance of going bankrupt after 3 years. If it does go bankrupt, it will incur bankruptcy costs of $200,000. The discount rate is 10%. Should the firm issue the debt?
Answer:
a. What is the market value of the firm?
$162,500b. Now assume the firm issues $50,000 of debt paying interest of 6% per year, using the proceeds to retire equity. The debt is expected to be permanent. What will happen to the total value of the firm (debt plus equity)?
$200,123c. Recompute your answer to (b) under the following assumptions: The debt issue raises the probability of bankruptcy. The firm has a 30% chance of going bankrupt after 3 years. If it does go bankrupt, it will incur bankruptcy costs of $200,000. The discount rate is 10%. Should the firm issue the debt?
The firm should not issue the debt because the risk of bankruptcy eliminates any possible gains obtained from issuing debt. It actually decreases the value of equity.Explanation:
the firm's current value = [EBIT x (1 - tax rate)] / WACC = [$25,000 x 0.65] / 10% = $162,500
firm's new WACC = ($112,500/$162,500 x 10%) + ($50,000/$162,500 x 6% x 0.65) = 6.92% + 1.2% = 8.12%
the firm's new value = [$25,000 x 0.65] / 8.12% = $200,123
expected cost of bankruptcy = (30% x $200,000) / 1.1³ = $45,079
firm's total value is still $200,123, but the stockholders' equity has been reduced from ($200,123 - $50,000 = $150,123) to $150,123 - $45,079 = $105,044
the gain from issuing debt will be eliminated due to the risk of bankruptcy, before equity had risen from $112,500 to $150,123, but now it decreases to $105,044.
The market value of the firm will be $162500.
Based on the information given, the market value will be calculated thus:
= [EBIT × (1 - Tax rate(] / WACC
= [25000 × (1 - 0.35)] / 10%
= [25000 × 0.65] / 0.10 = $162500
Since the firm's new WACC is 8.12%, then the new value of the firm will be:
= (25000 × 0.65) / 8.12%
= 200,123
Therefore, the total value of the firm is $200,123.
In conclusion, the firm should not issue the debt due to the fact that the risk of bankruptcy will eliminate the gains gotten from the issuance.

A movie studio sells the latest movie on DVD to VideosRUs at $10 per DVD. The studio's cost of production is $1 per DVD. VideosRUs prices the videos at $19.99 to its customers. The studio offers to buy back unsold DVDs for $5. The studio must pay $.50 disposal fee for all returned DVDs. How many videos should VideosRUs order if the current sales forecast for the DVD is that demand will be normal with a mean of 10,000 and a standard deviation of 5,000
We want to find the number of DVDs that maximizes expected profit. To do this, we need to calculate the expected profit for different quantities of DVDs and choose the one that gives the highest profit. By selling 7,000 DVDs get a maximum profit.
What is the profit maximization method?To ensure the best output and price levels are realized in order to maximize returns, business firms engage in the process of profit maximization. In order to achieve its profit objectives, the company modifies important variables including sale price, production costs, and output levels.
To determine how many videos VideosRUs should order, we need to calculate the expected profit for each DVD sold.
The profit per DVD for VideosRUs can be calculated as follows:
Revenue per DVD = $19.99
Cost per DVD = $10
Profit per DVD = Revenue per DVD - Cost per DVD = $19.99 - $10 = $9.99
The studio's profit per DVD can be calculated as follows:
Revenue per DVD = $10 (the amount they sold the DVD to VideosRUs for)
Cost per DVD = $1
Profit per DVD = Revenue per DVD - Cost per DVD = $10 - $1 = $9
To calculate the probability of selling, we need to use the normal distribution with a mean of 10,000 and a standard deviation of 5,000. Since we don't know the actual demand, we can use a probability distribution to estimate the likelihood of selling different quantities of DVDs.
The required calculation is shown in the file given attached below.
Thus, selling 7000 DVDs get the highest profit.

Answer:
Callie's Gross Profit is $562000
Explanation:
Gross profit is the profit earned by a business after deducting the costs associated with producing or selling its goods (for manufacturing and trading businesses) or the costs associated with providing the services (for service businesses) from the net revenue.
It is the profit from the trading section of the business before deducting the operating and financing expenses of the business and before adding any other income.
The gross profit is simply calculated as follows,
Gross Profit = Net Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold
Callie's gross profit = 940000 - 378000
Callie's Gross Profit = 562000
