Kuzma Foods, Inc. has budgeted sales for June and July at $ 680 comma 000 and $ 765 comma 000, respectively. Sales are 85% credit, of which 70% is collected in the month of sale and 30% is collected in the following month. What is the budgeted Accounts Receivable balance on July 31?
Answer:
$195,075
Explanation:
The computation of the budgeted account receivable balance as on July 31 is shown below:
= July budgeted sales × credit sales percentage × following month percentage
= $765,000 × 85% × 30%
= $195,075
We simply multiplied the July budgeted sales with the credit sales percentage and the following month percentage so that the budgeted account receivable balance could come
Problem 15-12 Below is a list of prices for zero-coupon bonds of various maturities. Maturity (Years) Price of $1,000 Par Bond (Zero-Coupon) 1 $ 974.85 2 882.39 3 847.70 a. A 5.6% coupon $1,000 par bond pays an annual coupon and will mature in 3 years. What should the yield to maturity on the bond be? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. If at the end of the first year the yield curve flattens out at 6.5%, what will be the 1-year holding-period return on the coupon bond? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a. 5.63%
b. 5.72%
Explanation:
to calculate YTM of zero coupon bonds:
YTM = [(face value / market value)¹/ⁿ] - 1
YTM₁ = [(1,000 / 974.85)¹/ⁿ] - 1 = 2.58%YTM₂ = [(1,000 / 882.39)¹/ⁿ] - 1 = 6.46%YTM₃ = [(1,000 / 847.70)¹/ⁿ] - 1 = 5.66%a. A 5.6% coupon $1,000 par bond pays an annual coupon and will mature in 3 years. What should the yield to maturity on the bond be?
the bond's current market price:
$1,000 / 1.0566³ = $847.75$56/1.0258 + 56/1.0646² + 56/1.0566³ = $54.59 + $49.41 + $47.47 = $151.47current market price = $999.22YTM = [C + (FV - PV)/n] / [(FV + PV)/2] = [56 + (1,000 - 999.22)/3] / [(1,000 + 999.22)/2] = (56 + 0.26) / 999.61 = 5.63%
b. If at the end of the first year the yield curve flattens out at 6.5%, what will be the 1-year holding-period return on the coupon bond?
the bond's current market price:
$1,000 / 1.065³ = $827.85$56/1.0258 + 56/1.065² + 56/1.065³ = $54.59 + $49.37 + $46.36 = $150.32current market price = $978.17you invest $978.17 in purchasing the bond and you receive a coupon of $56, holding period return = $56 / $978.17 = 5.72%
Because transit tends to be congested in this country, many people prefer to shop in their local neighborhoods. They tend to go to stores several times a week to get what they need rather than making one big trip less frequently. Since the culture of this company is very network oriented, shoppers expect a trip to the store to involve significant interaction with store employees. Shoppers are also used to good deals and haggling for better prices. A U.S. store opens in this country and exhibits the following characteristics. Which of these characteristics will be problematic for the success of the store?
A) A few large flagship stores located in big cities
B) Product experts on the floor to answer customers' questions
C) Store locations easy to access via public transit
D) High-end pricing
E) Products available individually rather than in bulk
Answer: A few large flagship stores located in big cities; High-end pricing( Option A and D)
Explanation:
Because the people in this country usually shop close to their home, it would not be wise for a business to opt for few large flagship stores rather than a larger number of the smaller stores.
It would also be unwise for such business to sell mainly high-end products because the shoppers are used to good deals and haggling. Such company would be smart, to sell the products individually, because bulk purchases would make little sense for people that make frequent trips to the store.
Also, in a country with a congested transportation, an easy-to-access store locations will be important and having product experts on the floor who answers the questions of customers’ would appeal to network-oriented local culture.
Slavin Corporation manufactures two products, Alpha and Delta. Each product requires time on a single machine. The machine has a monthly capacity of 500 hours. Total market demand for the two products is limited to 150 units (each) monthly. Slavin is currently producing 110 Alphas and 110 Deltas each month. Cost and machine-usage data for the two products is shown in the following spreadsheet, which Slavin managers use for planning purposes:

Required:
a. How many Alphas and Deltas should the company produce each month to maximize monthly profit?
b. If the company produces at the level found in requirement (a), how much will monthly profit increase over the current production schedule?
Answer:
a. How many Alphas and Deltas should the company produce each month to maximize monthly profit?
150 Alphas80 Deltasb. If the company produces at the level found in requirement (a), how much will monthly profit increase over the current production schedule?
$480 increase (or 75% increase)Explanation:
Alpha Delta
Price $120 $150
Variable costs per unit :
Material $20 $35 Labor $26 $37 Overhead $14 $14Contribution margin per unit $60 $64
Fixed costs :
Manufacturing $8,000 Marketing and administrative $5,000 total $13,000Machine hours per unit 2.0 2.5

Machine hours available 500
Quantity produced 110 110
Maximum demand 150 150
Profit $640
Contribution margin per machine hour:
$30 $25.60
this means you should produce as many Alphas as possible = 150. Production of 150 Alphas will consume 300 machine hours and the remaining 200 hours can be used to produce 80 Deltas.
Monthly profit:
[(150 x $60) + (80 x $64)] - 13,000 = $9,000 + $5,120 - $13,000 = $1,120, which represents a $480 increase (or 75% increase)
A small business produces a single product and reports the following data: Sales price $ 8.50 per unit Variable cost $ 5.30 per unit Fixed cost $ 21 comma 000 per month Volume 10 comma 000 units per month The company believes that the volume will go up to 13 comma 000 units if the company reduces its sales price to $ 7.25. How would this change affect operating income?
Answer:
If the current price is reduced from $8.50 to $7.25 per unit, operating income will decrease by $6,650 (from $11,000 to $4,350). This happens because variable costs will increase dramatically while total revenue will only increase a little.
Explanation:
current revenue = $8.50 x 10,000 = $85,000
- variable costs = $5.30 x 10,000 = ($53,000)
- fixed costs = ($21,000)
operating income = $11,000
alternative price = $7.25 x 13,000 = $94,250
- variable costs = $5.30 x 13,000 = ($68,900)
- fixed costs = ($21,000)
operating income = $4,350

Lang Warehouses borrowed $287,610 from a bank and signed a note requiring 15 annual payments of $27,709 beginning one year from the date of the agreement. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Required: Determine the interest rate implicit in this agreement
Answer:
The interest rate implicit in this agreement is 5%
Explanation:
A fix periodic payment made for a specific of time is known as annuity.
The 15 annual loan payment of $27,709 is an annuity payment and we will use the following formula to calculate the interest rate.
PV of annuity = P x annuity factor
Where
P = annual payments = $27,709
Placing values in the formula
$287,610 = $27,709 x annuity factor
Annuity factor = $287,610 / $27,709
Annuity factor = 10.37966
The annuity factor of 10.37966 for 15 years is for 5% interest rate.

A mutual fund had NAV per share of $19.00 on January 1, 2016. On December 31 of the same year, the fund's NAV was $19.14. Income distributions were $0.57, and the fund had capital gain distributions of $1.12. Without considering taxes and transactions costs, what rate of return did an investor receive on the fund last year
Answer:
9.63%
Explanation:
Calculation of Mutual Fund rate of return that the investor receive on the fund last year
Using this formula
Rate=(Fund's NAV -NAV per share +Income distributions+ Capital gain distributions )
Let plug in the formula
Where:
Fund's NAV =$19.14
NAV per share=$19.00
Income distributions=.57
Capital gain distributions =1.12
Hence
Rate =($19.14 - 19.00 + .57 + 1.12) / $19.00
=1.83/$19.00
=0.0963×100
Rate = 9.63%
Therefore without considering taxes and transactions costs, the rate of return that the investor receive on the fund last year will be 9.63%
What is the company’s financial position? Please refer to the income statement and balance sheet for the Exceptional Service Grading Company available here. Using the learning resources provided in the Reading Assignment, perform a financial ratio analysis of the company using the following ratios: • Gross profit margin • Current ratio • Debt ratio
Answer:
Gross profit margin requires revenue and gross profit of the company.
Current ratio = 1.386 x
Debt ratio = 0.123 x
Explanation:
Gross profit margin requires revenue and gross profit of the company which is provided in the question but it can be calculated using this formula ; Total revenue / gross profit . where Gross profit = Revenue - cost of goods sold
Current ratio is calculated using the formula ; current assets/ current liabilities lets assume the left column is for the most recent year then current ratio = 4612200/3325950 = 1.386x
Debt ratio is calculated using the formula ; total debts/total assets lets assume once more that the left column is the most recent year. note; total debts = long term + current notes payable = 454800 + 277550
therefore debt ratio = 732350 / 5957800 = 0.123x

Walkers World Company gathered the following information for 2019:
Total sales revenue (65% on credit) $432,000
Cost of goods sold 231,000
Sales returns and allowances (on credit) 44,000
Accounts receivable at end of 2019 ($30,000
increase during 2019) 100,000
Allowance for doubtful accounts:
Beginning of 2019 5,000
End of 2019 7,000
Merchandise inventory at end of 2019 ($10,000
decrease during 2019) 28,000
Assume 365 days in the year.
Calculate each of the following ratios.
A. Receivable turnover ratio.
B. Average age of receivables.
C. Inventory turnover ratio.
D. Average number of days' supply in inventory
Answer:
A. Receivable turnover ratio. = 4.57 times
B. Average age of receivables. 94.07 days
C. Inventory turnover ratio. 7 times
D. Average number of days' supply in inventory = 633 days
Explanation:
Net Sales $ 388,000
Sales revenue (65% on credit) $432,000
Less Sales returns and allowances (on credit) 44,000
Average Accounts Receivable = Accounts Rec (beg) Accounts Rec (end)/2
= 70,000+ 100,000/2= $85,000
A. Receivable turnover ratio.
Receivable turnover ratio= Net Sales / Average Accounts Receivable
= 388,000/ 85,000= 4.5647= 4.565= 4.57 times
A high turnover ratio is favorable because the accounts receivable are quickly collected.
B. Average age of receivables.
Average age of receivables= Accounts receivable *365/ Sales
= 100,000* 365/388,000= 365,000,00/388,000= 94.07 days
Accounts receivable will be collected in 94 days.
C. Inventory turnover ratio.
Inventory turnover ratio= Cost Of Goods Sold/ Average Inventory
= 231,000/38,000+ 28,000/2
= 231,000/33,000= 7 times
A company with a high turnover requires a smaller investment in inventory than one producing the same sales with a lower turn over.
D. Average number of days' supply in inventory
Average number of days' supply in inventory= Cost of Goods Sold/ 365
= 231,000 /365= 632.89
More Inventory will be needed in 633 days

A couple owns a life insurance policy with a Children’s Term rider. Their daughter is reaching the maximum age of dependent coverage, so she will have to convert to permanent insurance in the near future. Which of the following will she need to provide for proof of insurability?
1. Medical exam and parental medical history
2. Medical exam
3. Proof of insurability is not required
4. Her parent's federal income tax receipts
Answer:
3. Proof of insurability is not required
Explanation:
Proof of insurability is not required because if a children's term rider is attached to a life insurance policy, then children are protected or covered by this insurance till they reach a particular age, which happens to be the maximum age stated in the policy. From that age they can convert their insurance coverage to a permanent
life insurance policy without having to issue proof of insurability as it would not be required because a child rider locks in future insurability. The can child rider can be purchased with an individual life insurance policy.
The Work-in-Process inventory account of a manufacturing firm shows a balance of $3,980 at the end of an accounting period. The job cost sheets of two uncompleted jobs show charges of $660 and $460 for materials, and charges of $560 and $740 for direct labor. From this information, it appears that the company is using a predetermined overhead rate, as a percentage of direct labor costs, of:
Answer:
Predetermine overhead rate as a percentage of direct labor cost is 120%
Explanation:
To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we first need to determine the total overheads under the balance of $3980 for two jobs.
The total cost of both jobs which are uncompleted equals,
Total cost both jobs = (660 + 560) + (460 + 740)
Total cost both jobs = 1220 + 1200 = $2420
Thus, the overhead cost involved in both jobs is,
Total Overhead cost = 3980 - 2420 = $1560
This total overhead of $1560 has been absorbed on the basis of a predetermine overhead rate based on the direct labor cost. The total direct labor cost involved under both uncompleted jobs is,
Total direct labor cost both jobs = 560 +740 = $1300
So, the predetermined overhead rate is,
Overhead rate = Total overheads / total direct labor cost
Overhead rate = 1560 / 1300
Overhead rate = $1.2 per $1 of direct labor cost
Expressed as a percentage of direct labor cost, it is:
% Overhead rate = 1560 / 1300 * 100 = 120% of direct labor cost
"Nelson Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. The cost savings from the equipment would result in an annual increase in cash flow of $100,000. The equipment will have an initial cost of $400,000 and have a 5-year life. If the salvage value of the equipment is estimated to be $75,000, what is the payback period
Answer:
4 years
Explanation:

Explanation:
When Kodax Company purchased 92,000 shares of Grecco Co she had significant influence (more than 20% of shareholding in Grecco Co). We call this an Investment in an Associate.
The Investment in Associate is a Financial Asset to the Holder (Kodax Company) and an Equity Element to the Investee (Grecco Co) and should be recorded appropriately as above.
Venus Creations sells window treatments (shades, blinds, and awnings) to both commercial and residential customers. The following information relates to its budgeted operations for the current year.
Commercial Residential
Revenues $300,000 $480,000
Direct materials costs $30,000 $50,000
Direct labor costs 100,000 300,000
Overhead costs 85,000 215,000 150,000 500,000
Operating income (loss) $85,000 $(20,000)
The controller, Peggy Kingman, is concerned about the residential product line. She cannot understand why this line is not more profitable given that the installations of window coverings are less complex for residential customers. In addition, the residential client base resides in close proximity to the company office, so travel costs are not as expensive on a per client visit for residential customers. As a result, she has decided to take a closer look at the overhead costs assigned to the two product lines to determine whether a more accurate product costing model can be developed. Here are the three activity cost pools and related information she developed:
Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Cost Drivers
Scheduling and travel $85,000 Hours of travel
Setup time 90,000 Number of setups
Supervision 60,000 Direct labor cost
Expected Use of Cost Drivers per Product
Commercial Residential
Scheduling and travel 750 500
Setup time 350 250
What should Peggy Kingman do?
Answer and Explanation:
The explanation is shown below:-
First we need to find out the activity based overhead rates
Activity Estimated overhead Basis Quantity Activity based
cost overhead rates
Travel
and Scheduling $85,000 Hours of 1,250 $68
travel (700 + 500)
Set up time $90,000 Number of 600 $150
setups (350 + 250)
Supervision $60,000 Direct labor $400,000 15%
cost ($100,000 + $300,000)
Now we need to find out the overhead cost assigned to commercial which is shown below:-
Activity Activity based Actual allocation of Overhead
overhead rates cost drivers assigned
Travel and
Scheduling $68 750 $51,000
Set up time $150 350 $52,500
Supervision 15% $100,000 $15,000
Total $118,500
For computing the overhead assigned we simply multiply the activity based overhead rate with actual allocation of cost drivers.
after this we need to find out the overhead cost assigned to residential which is shown below:-
Activity Activity based Actual allocation of Overhead
overhead rates cost drivers
Travel and
Scheduling $68 500 $34,000
Set up time $150 250 $37,500
Supervision 15% $300,000 $45,000
Total $116,500
For computing the overhead we simply multiply the activity based overhead rate with actual allocation of cost drivers.
Finally we need to find out the operating income or loss for the commercial and residual which is shown below:-
Particulars Commercial Residential
Sales revenue $300,000 $480,000
Less: Direct material cost $30,000 $50,000
Less: Direct labor cost $100,000 $300,000
Less: Overhead costs
assigned $118,500 $116,500
Operating income (loss) $51,500 $15,500
The Peggy Kingman should establish the cost to be assigned based on the product lines for overhead cost as the Peggy Kingman is more focused to the overhead cost which were based on the activity cost drivers. Moreover, it shows a profit earned on residential product line

Bonds payable-record issuance and premium amortization. Kaye Co. issued $1 million face amount of 11% 20-year bonds on April 1,2004. The bonds pay interest on an annual basis on March 31 each year.
Required:
a. Assume that market interest rates were slightly lower than 11% when the bonds were sold. Would the proceeds from the bond issue have been more than, less than, or equal to the face amount? Explain.
b. Independent of your answer to part a, assume that the proceeds were $1,080,000. Use the horizontal model (or write the journal entry) to show the effect of issuing the bonds.
c. Calculate the interest expense that Kaye Co. will show with respect to these bonds in its income statement for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004, assuming that the premium of $80,000 is amortized on a straight-line basis.
Answer:
Cash proceeds would be higher than face amount.
Bond issuance:
Dr cash $1,080,000
Cr bonds payable $1,000,000
Cr premium on bonds payable($1,080,000-$1,000,000) $80,000
$57,400
Explanation:
If the market interest rate were slightly lower than 11% coupon rate,the cash proceeds from the bonds would be higher than face amount as a lower market rate is used as a discount rate in calculating the present value,in other words,the lower the discount rate,the higher the present value as further shown below.
Assume market rate is 10.5%
cash proceeds=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is 10.5%
nper is 20 years
pmt =$1,000,000*11%=$110,000
fv is $1000,000
=-pv(10.5%,20,110000,1000000)=$1,041,154.54
amortization(annually)=$80,000/20=$4000
Amortization for six months=$4,000*6/12=$2,000
coupon=$1,080,000*11%*6/12=$ 59,400.00
Interest expense=coupon -premium amortization=$ 59,400.00-$2,000.00=$57,400

What are the strengths and weaknesses of the Campbell Soup Company's marketing?
Answer:
For one - their social media presance for a large corporation is really lacking. A company as well known as Campbell should be current in social media, they have not posted to in over a month.
They rely to heavily on the fact that they are the oldest name in the soup business and I feel like they are a little lazy when it comes to their marketing with other compitors on their heels.
Suppose you win the lottery and have two options: A. Take $1 million now. B. Take $1.2 million to be paid out as 300,000 now and then $300,000 a year for 3 years. Which is the better deal? Assume that the interest rate is 10%. Please show your work. (4 point)
Answer:
A. Take $1 million now.
Explanation:
A. If we take $1 million now the present value of the money is $1 million.
B. If we choose to take $1.2 million paid out over 3 years then present value will at 10% will be;
$300,000 + $300,000 / 1.2 + $300,000/ 1.44 + $300,000 / 1.728
$300,000 + $250,000 + $208,000+ $173,611 = $931,944
The present value of option B is less than present value of option A. We should select option A and take $1 million now.
Which of the following statements is incorrect? Group of answer choices Cost of goods available for sale will always be equal to or greater than cost of goods sold. Ending inventory exceeds beginning inventory when purchases are greater than cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold exceeds purchases when ending inventory is less than beginning inventory. Ending inventory is greater than beginning inventory when purchases are less than cost of goods sold.
Answer:
Ending inventory is greater than beginning inventory when purchases are less than cost of goods sold.
Explanation:
Ending inventory is greater than beginning inventory when purchases are less than cost of goods sold is the wrong answer option
Ending inventory is the amount of inventory a company has in stock at the end of it's fiscal year. It is the beginning inventory plus net purchases minus cost of goods sold.
When the beginning inventory is greater than the ending inventory, then has been sold in the period than you bought.
