Congress wishes to impose regulations on the insurance industry. What test would the United State Supreme Court use to determine whether such regulations would violate the substantive due process rights of insurance companies that would be subject to the regulations? What is the likely outcome of the case?
Answer:
Three part test.
The outcome: if the three requirements are not met, then there is not point the Government should interfere.
At the end, the law will be held.
Explanation:
In some cases, the courts are allowed to protect individual, company or business organization from Government interrupting with these individuals or business organization "fundamental right" and this is the "substantive due process rights " of insurance companies as mentioned in the question above.
The test that the United State Supreme Court can use to determine whether the regulations they want to enact would violate the substantive due process rights of insurance companies is what is known as the THREE PARR TEST.
THE THREE PART TEST has its root from cases such as that of Pasgraf V Long Island Railroad co. The three part test involves three main subjects and they are;
=> foreseeability: are the policies in which insurance companies work going to affect the consumers in the future?
=> proximity: what kind of relationship do the insurance companies have with there consumers?
=> fairness: are these policies just and fair?
CONCLUSION: if the three requirements are not met, then there is not point the Government should interfere.
The State of Idaho issued $2,000,000 of 7% coupon, 20-year semiannual payment, tax-exempt bonds 5 years ago. The bonds had 5 years of call protection, but now the state can call the bonds if it chooses to do so. The call premium would be 5% of the face amount. Today 15-year, 5%, semiannual payment bonds can be sold at par, but flotation costs on this issue would be 2%. What is the net present value of the refunding? Because these are tax-exempt bonds, taxes are not relevant.
Answer:
$278,606
Explanation:
Calaculation of the net present value of the refunding:
The first step is to calculate call premium :
Call premium= 2,000,000 x 5%
= 100,000
Second step is to calculate the Flotation cost
Flotation cost = 2,000,000 x 2%
= 40,000
Calculation for Old interest = 2,000,000 x (7% / 2) = 70,000
Caluclatio fo New interest = 2,000,000 x (5% / 2) = 50,000
Therefore the Six months savings will be:
20,000 70,000 + 50,000 + 20,000 = 140,000
The PV of savings 30 periods 5% / 2 will be:
20,000 x 20.9303 = 418,606
Therefore the Net Present Value of the refunding will be:
418,606- 140,000
= $278,606
Laurie saved for six months to have enough money to buy a new designer outfit to wear to a special party. She had to travel to a larger city to purchase this outfit, but it was worth it to her because it made her feel beautiful and confident. The difference between the benefits Laurie perceived from this purchase and the cost to her to acquire these benefits describes her _____.
Answer: B) customer value
Explanation:
Customer Value refers to the perception of what the good in question is worth to the customer buying it as opposed to other alternatives. Essentially, how much is it worth to the buyer vs the opportunity costs of buying it. The customer values a good when they feel like they gained more benefits than they paid for or that it was an equal trade-off and so do not mind the cost.
Laurie gained confidence and felt beautiful as a result of the attire and so decided that the cost was worth it.
Worth refers to whether the consumer feels he or she received more benefits and services than he or she paid for.
What is the customer Value?Customer value is the financial compensation that a customer receives in exchange for the amount paid for a market item.
In general, a client evaluates the net benefits of one item to those of its prospective alternatives. It aids in determining whether the client believes they received adequate value for the cost of the offering.
Thus, Option B is correct about Laurie.

Bilbo Baggins wants to save money to meet three objectives. First, he would like to be able to retire 30 years from now with retirement income of $28,000 per month for 25 years, with the first payment received 30 years and 1 month from now. Second, he would like to purchase a cabin in Rivendell in 10 years at an estimated cost of $380,000. Third, after he passes on at the end of the 25 years of withdrawals, he would like to leave an inheritance of $1,700,000 to his nephew Frodo. He can afford to save $3,300 per month for the next 10 years. If he can earn an EAR of 10 percent before he retires and an EAR of 7 percent after he retires, how much will he have to save each month in years 11 through 30?
Answer:
He would have to save each month in years 11 through 30 the amount of $2,279.60
Explanation:
Because the cash flows occur monthly, we must get the effective monthly rate. One way to do this is to find the APR based on monthly compounding, and then divide by 12. So, the pre-retirement APR is:
EAR = .11 = [1 + (APR/12)] 12- 1;
APR = 12[(1.11) 1/12- 1] = .1048 or 10.48%
And the post-retirement APR is:
EAR = .08 = [1 + (APR/12)] 12 -1
APR = 12[(1.08) 1/12 -1] = .0772 or 7.72%
First, we will calculate how much he needs at retirement. The amount needed at retirement is the PV of the monthly spending plus the PV of the inheritance. The PV of these two cash flows is:
PVA = $24500{1 -[1/(1 + .0772/12) 12(25) ]}/(.0772/12) = $3,252,096.21
PV = $1525,000/[1 + (.0772/12)] 300 = $222,723.58
So, at retirement, he needs:
$3,252,096.21+ $222,723.58= $3474819.79
He will be saving $2,600 per month for the next 10 years until he purchases the cabin. The value of his savings after 10 years will be:
FVA = $2,600[{[1 + (.1048/12)] 12(10) -1}/(.1048/12)] = $547,487.10
After he purchases the cabin, the amount he will have left is:
$547,487.10 -345,000 = $202487.10
He still has 20 years until retirement. When he is ready to retire, this amount will have grown to:
FV = $202487.10[1 + (.1048/12)] 12(20) = $1632023.27
So, when he is ready to retire, based on his current savings, he will be short:
$3474819.79-1632023.27 = $1842796.52
This amount is the FV of the monthly savings he must make between years 10 and 30. So, finding the annuity payment using the FVA equation, we find his monthly savings will need to be:
FVA = $1842796.52 = C [{[ 1 + (.1048/12)] 12(20) -1}/(.1048/12)]
C = $2,279.60
He would have to save each month in years 11 through 30 the amount of $2,279.60

Oriole Company has the following items: common stock, $1610000; treasury stock, $217000; deferred income taxes, $254000 and retained earnings, $782000. What total amount should Oriole Company report as stockholders’ equity?
Answer:
Stockholders' equity = $ 2,175,000.
Explanation:
Stockholders' equity is also the corporation's total book value. In other word, it is the amount of difference between the Corporation Asset and its liability
Stockholders' equity for Oriole company can be derived using : Common stock + Retained earnings - Treasury stock
Stockholders' equity = 1,610,000 + 782,000 - 217,000
Stockholders' equity = $ 2,175,000.
We also need to know that deferred income taxes is not a component of stockholders' equity thus it will not be considered in stockholders' equity calculation.
Correct answer is $ 21,75,000.

3 340,000 350,000
4 280,000 250,000
5 180,000 200,000
Total $1,700,000 $1,700,000
Each project requires an investment of $900,000.
A rate of 15% has been selected for the net present value analysis.
Required:
1. Compute the cash payback period for each project.
2. Compute the net present value for each project.
(Round to nearest dollar)
Answer:
Plant Expansion
Cash payback period = 2 years
NPV = $304,707.24
Retail Store Expansion
Cash payback period = 2 years
NPV = $309,744.42
Explanation:
Cash payback period measures how long it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flows.
Cash payback for the Plant Expansion
Amount invested = $-900,000
Amount recovered in the first year = $-900,000 + $450,000 = $-450,000
Amount recovered in the second year = $-450,000 + $450,000 = 0
The amount invested in the project is recovered In the second year. So, the cash payback period is 2 years.
Cash payback for the Retail Store Expansion
Amount invested = $-900,000
Amount recovered in the first year = $-900,000 + $500,000 = $-400,000
Amount recovered in the second year = $-400,000 + $400,000 = 0
The amount invested in the project is recovered In the second year. So, the cash payback period is 2 years.
The net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator:
Plant Expansion
Cash flow in year 0 = $-900,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $450,000
Cash flow in year 2 = $450,000
Cash flow in year 3 = $340,000
Cash flow in year 4 = $280,000
Cash flow in year 5 = $180,000
I = 15%
NPV = $304,707.24
Retail Store Expansion
Cash flow in year 0 = $-900,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $500,000
Cash flow in year 2 = $400,000
Cash flow in year 3 = $350,000
Cash flow in year 4 = $250,000
Cash flow in year 5 = $200,000
I = 15%

g The law of supply states that, other things equal, an increase in a. price causes quantity supplied to increase. b. price causes quantity supplied to decrease. c. quantity supplied causes price to increase. d. quantity supplied causes price to decrease.
Answer:
a. price causes quantity supplied to increase.
Explanation:
The law of supply states that, other things equal, an increase in price causes quantity supplied to increase. An increase in price causes the supply curve to slope upward, thus, giving producers of goods and service providers, an incentive to supply more quantity of their products and vice-versa.
Also, the demand for goods and services has an effect on the quantity of goods and services provided by the producers or suppliers. Hence, an increase in the demand for a product would result in an increase in price, thereby causing the producers to supply more quantity in order to maximize profits.
For instance, an electronic gadget company will manufacture more television sets if the price of those television increases.
Johnson Company uses the allowance method to account for uncollectible accounts receivable. Bad debt expense is established as a percentage of credit sales. For 2013, net credit sales totaled $4,500,000, and the estimated bad debt percentage is 1.5%. The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance of $42,000 at the beginning of 2013 and $40,000, after adjusting entries, at the end of 2013.
Required:
1. What is bad debt expense for 2013?
2. Determine the amount of accounts receivable written off during 2013.
3. If the company uses the direct write-off method, what would bad debt expense be for 2013?
Answer:
1. The Bad debt expense for 2013 is $67,500
2. The amount of accounts receivable written off during 2013 is $69,500
3. If the company uses the direct write-off method, the bad debt expense for 2013 would be $69,500
Explanation:
1. In order toCalculate the bad debt expense for 2013 we would have to make the following calculation:
Bad debt expense=1.5% of Net Credit Sales
=1.5%×$4,500,000
=$67,500
The Bad debt expense for 2013 is $67,500
2. In order to Determine the amount of accounts receivable written off during 2013 we would have to make the following calculation:
amount of accounts receivable written off=$42,000+$67,500-$40,000
amount of accounts receivable written off=$69,500
The amount of accounts receivable written off during 2013 is $69,500
3. Using direct write off method, the bad debt expense is recognized only when the actual bad debt is incurred. The actual bad expense would be the amount of accounts receivable written off during the year. Accounts receivable written off during the year would be same in both the methods.
Thus, the bad debt expense for the year 2013 would be $69,500.

Globalization of production entails when companies source or gather best materials or services from other countries in order to incorporate it to the manufacturing or establishment of the final product in another country so as to get the best reduced cost in production with best materials or services.
Ford manufactures a car in Michigan, but uses parts sourced from 27 countries follows the Globalization of production.
A travel agent wants to determine how much the average client is willing to pay for a weekend at an all-expense paid resort. The agent surveys 30 clients and finds that the average willingness to pay is $2,500 with a standard deviation of $840. However, the travel agent is not satisfied and wants to be 95% confident that the sample mean falls within $150 of the true average. What is the minimum number of clients the travel agent should survey
Answer:
[tex]n=(\frac{1.960(840)}{150})^2 =120.47 \approx 121[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=12 rounded up to the next integer
Explanation:
[tex]\bar X=2500[/tex] represent the sample mean
[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)
s=840 represent the sample standard deviation
n represent the sample size
The margin of error is given by this formula:
[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (a)
And on this case we have that ME =150 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2[/tex] (b)
The critical value for 95% of confidence interval, the significance level if 5% and the critical value would be [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.960[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{1.960(840)}{150})^2 =120.47 \approx 121[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=12 rounded up to the next integer
Ronald, Inc. had the following balances and transactions during 2017: What is the amount of the company's Merchandise Inventory, as disclosed in the December 31, 2017 balance sheet, using the periodic weighted-average inventory costing method
Answer: $707
Explanation:
Using the Periodic System means that inventory is updated per period. This means that using the Weighted Average method, Ending Inventory prices will be calculated on the basis of all inventory in the period.
Weighted Average Method aims to ascribe a single price to all the inventory units sold by a company and so divides the entire cost by the number of units.
Number of Units bought in 2017,
Opening Balance = 12 units
June 10 = 24 units.
= 12 + 24
= 36 units.
Cost of the the 36 units
= (12 * 91) + (24 * 87)
= $3,180
Weighted Average Cost,
= 3,180/36
= $88.33
During the year they sold 28 units (10 + 18) meaning that 8 units (36 - 28) were left.
The closing Inventory on the 12/31/2020 therefore is,
= 8 * 88.33
= $706.66
= $707
Which of the following statements concerning the selection of risk management techniques and insurance market conditions is (are) true? I.It's easier to purchase affordable insurance during a "soft" market than during a "hard" market.II.Retention is used more during a "soft" market than during a "hard" market.I onlyII onlyboth I and IIneither I nor II
Answer:
I.It's easier to purchase affordable insurance during a "soft" market than during a "hard" market
I only
Explanation:
When a purchaser of insurance wants to make a purchase he analyses the market to get a favourable condition that reduces risk and loss.
The market condition can be a soft market or hard market.
Soft market is one in which potential sellers are more than potential buyers. So supply exceeds demand. Buyers are able to buy affordable insurance.
Hard market on the other hand is when there is an upswing in market cycle. Premiums increase and capacity for insurance decreases.
It is more difficult to get affordable insurance in this market
The W.C. Pruett Corp. has $200,000 of interest-bearing debt outstanding, and it pays an annual interest rate of 11%. In addition, it has $700,000 of common stock on its balance sheet. It finances with only debt and common equity, so it has no preferred stock. Its annual sales are $1 million, its average tax rate is 35%, and its profit margin is 8%. What are its TIE ratio and its return on invested capital (ROIC)? Round your answers to two decimal places.
Answer:
a. Times Interest Earned (TIE) Ratio = 6.59 times
b. Return on invested capital (ROIC) = 10.48%
Explanation:
To estimate these, we have to first calculate the following:
Interest expenses = $200,000 * 11% = $22,000
Net income = Profit margin * Annual sales = 8% * $1,000,000 = $80,000
Income before tax = Net income / (1 - Average tax rate) = $80,000 / (1 - 35%) = 123,076.92
Tax = Income before tax * Tax rate = $123,076.92 * 35% = $43,076.92
Earning before interest and tax (EBIT) = Net income + Interest expenses + Tax = $80,000 + $22,000 + $43,076.92 = $145,076.92
Net operating profit after tax (NOPAT) = EBIT * (1 - Average tax rate) = $145,076.92 * (1 - 35%) = $94,300
Invested capital = Common stock + Interest-bearing debt outstanding = $200,000 + $700,000 = $900,000
a. What are its TIE ratio?
Times Interest Earned (TIE) Ratio = EBIT / Interest expenses = $145,076.92 / $22,000 = 6.59 times
This indicates that the income of the W.C. Pruett Corp. is 6.59 times greater than its annual interest expense.
b. What are its return on invested capital (ROIC)?
ROIC = NOPAT / Invested capital = $94,300 / $900,000 = 0.1048, or 10.48%
Todd can afford to pay $375 per month for the next 7 years in order to purchase a new car. The interest rate is 6.5 percent compounded monthly. What is the most he can afford to pay for a new car today
Answer:
The most he can afford to pay = $25,260.07
Explanation:
The most he can afford to pay is the present value of the $375 per month discounted at the interest rate of return of 6.5% p.a
PV = A× (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r
PV = ?, A- 375, r- 6.5/12= 0.541% n= 12×7 = 84
PV = 375× (1- (1.00541)^(-84) )/0.00541= 25260.071
The most he can afford to pay = $25,260.07
Note: the monthly interest rate needed to be computed by dividing 6.5% by 12 and the number of months in 7 years is 7 × 12 = 84

Explanation:
Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge wine consumers a tax. Before the tax, 25 million bottles of wine were sold every month at a price of $6 per bottle. After the tax, 20 million bottles of wine are sold every month; consumers pay $8 per bottle (including the tax), and producers receive $5 per bottle. The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is_____________ $ per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is_________ $ per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $___________ per bottle.?
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that before the tax, 25 million wine bottles were sold at price of $6 per bottle and that after the tax, 20 million bottles of wine are sold every month and the consumers pay $8 per bottle which include the tax and producers receive $5 per bottle.
The amount of tax on wine will be the difference between the price consumers pay after the tax and the price producers receive. This will be:
= $8 - $5
= $3 per bottle
The tax burden that falls on the consumers will be difference between price paid after tax and the price which is paid before the tax.
= $8 - $6
= $2 per bottle
The tax burden on the producers will be difference between price received before the tax and price received after the tax.
= $6 - $5
= $1 per bottle
You have a portfolio that is invested 17 percent in Stock A, 38 percent in Stock B, and 45 percent in Stock C. The betas of the stocks are .62, 1.17, and 1.46, respectively. What is the beta of the portfolio
Answer:
The portfolio beta is 1.207
Explanation:
The portfolio beta is the weighted average of the individual stock betas that form up the portfolio. The weightage of each stock in the portfolio is calculated on the basis of investment in that stock as a proportion of total investment in the portfolio. The portfolio beta is calculated as follows,
Portfolio beta = Weight of Stock A * Beta of Stock A + Weight of Stock B * Beta of Stock B + ... + Weight of Stock N * Beta of Stock N
Portfolio beta = 0.17 * 0.62 + 0.38 * 1.17 + 0.45 * 1.46
Portfolio beta = 1.207
Alfred is saving up money for a down payment on a townhouse. He currently has $5016$ 5016, but knows he can get a loan at a lower interest rate if he can put down $5994$ 5994. If he invests the $5016$ 5016 in an account that earns 4.4%4.4% annually, compounded monthly, how long will it take Alfred to accumulate the $5994$ 5994? Round your answer to two decimal places, if necessary.
Answer:
It will take Alfred to accumulate the $5994 annually 4.1367 and monthly 4.0557
Explanation:
In order to calculate how long will it take Alfred to accumulate the $5994 we would have to use the following formula:
A=P(1+r/n)∧n*t
P=$5,016
A=$5994
r=4.4%
n=1 annually
n=12 monthly
Therefore, t annually would be as follows:
5,994=$5,016(1+(4.4%/100)/1)∧1*t
t=4.1367
Therefore, t monthly would be as follows:
5,994=$5,016(1+(4.4%/100)/12)∧12*t
t=4.0557
It will take Alfred to accumulate the $5994 annually 4.1367 and monthly 4.0557

The common problem i encounter mostly is the statistical modelling problem.
In this scenario we choose best combination of independent variables for the hypothesis testing. the independent variable shows the significant effect on dependent variable so we keep it in modelling.
My null hypothesis would be that there is no significant effect of independent variable on dependent variable. for my alternative hypothesis there exist is significant effect of independent variable on dependent variable.
Explanation:
The common problem I face daily is the statistical modelling problem which is the selection of relevant independent variable for prediction modelling.
In this example to select the best combination of independent variables we use hypothesis testing. if the independent variable has significant effect on dependent variable then the independent variable shows the significant effect on dependent variable so we keep it in modelling. In this way the model gets improved.
Since there are always two variables or two categories. hence it has a two sample test.
The Hypothesis can be shown below:
Null hypothesis:
H0: There is no significant effect of independent variable on dependent variable.
Alternative hypothesis:
Ha: There is significant effect of independent variable on dependent variable.
During January 2018, the first month of operations, a consulting firm had following transactions: Issued common stock to owners in exchange for $20,000 cash. Purchased $5,000 of equipment, paying $1,000 cash and signing a promissory note for $4,000. Received $9,000 in cash for consulting services performed in January. Purchased $1,500 of supplies on account; all of the supplies were used in January. Provided consulting services on account in the amount of $16,000. Paid $750 on account. Paid $3,000 to employees for work performed during January. Received a bill for utilities for January of $3,400; the bill remains unpaid. What is the amount of total revenue to be reported on the income statement for the month of January?
Answer:
The total or gross revenue for this company on the income statement would be the sum of:
$9,000 received in cash for consulting services performed in January$16,000 worth of consulting services that will be paid on account.So the total revenue will be $25,000.
This is because revenue is different from cash: as long as the sales are made, they are counted as revenue even if they are on account, and no cash payment has been made.
In 2021, the Marion Company purchased land containing a mineral mine for $1,150,000. Additional costs of $448,000 were incurred to develop the mine. Geologists estimated that 310,000 tons of ore would be extracted. After the ore is removed, the land will have a resale value of $110,000.
To aid in the extraction, Marion built various structures and small storage buildings on the site at a cost of $102,300. These structures have a useful life of 10 years. The structures cannot be moved after the ore has been removed and will be left at the site. In addition, new equipment costing $51,500 was purchased and installed at the site. Marion does not plan to move the equipment to another site, but estimates that it can be sold at auction for $5,000 after the mining project is completed.
In 2021, 41,000 tons of ore were extracted and sold. In 2022, the estimate of total tons of ore in the mine was revised from 310,000 to 397,500. During 2019, 71,000 tons were extracted, of which 51,000 tons were sold.
Required:
a. Compute depletion and depreciation of the mine and the mining facilities and equipment for 2018 and 2019. Marion uses the units-of-production method to determine depreciation on mining facilities and equipment.
b. Compute the book value of the mineral mine, structures, and equipment as of December 31, 2019.
Answer:
Marion Company
a1) Depletion of the Mine for two years:
2018: 41,000/310,000 * $1,488,000 = $196,800
2019: 51,000/397,500 * $1,488,000 = $190,913
a2) Depreciation of Mining Facilities:
2018: 41,000/310,000 *$102,300 = $13,530
2019: 51,000/397,500 * $102,300 = $13,125
a3) Depreciation of Mining Equipment
2018: 41,000/310,000 *$46,500 = $6,150
2018: 51,000/397,500 * $46,500 = $5,966
b) Book Values December 31, 2019:
1) Mineral Mine:
Cost = $1,598,000
Accumulated Depletion $387,713 (2018 & 2019)
Book Value = $1,210,287
b2) Structures:
Cost = $102,300
Accumulated Depreciation $26,655 (2018 & 2019)
Book Value = $75,645
b3) Equipment:
Cost = $51,500
Accumulated Depreciation $12,116
Book Value = $39,384
Explanation:
a) Cost of Mine:
Land $1,150,000
Development $448,000
Less Resale ($110,000)
Total cost = $1,488,000
b) Cost of Facilities or Structure:
Building cost = $102,300
c) Cost of Equipment = $51,500 - $5,000 = $46,500
d) Depletion is an accrual accounting technique used to allocate the cost of extracting natural resources. It is like depreciation and amortization, which lower the cost value of an asset incrementally through periodic charges to income.
e) Depreciation is an accounting method for allocating the cost (the value used up) of a tangible or physical asset over its useful life.
Blythe Company has provided the following information: Sales price per unit $40 Variable cost per unit 18 Fixed costs per month 12,800 What is the amount of sales in dollars required for Blythe to break even? (Round any percentages to two decimal places and your final answer to the nearest dollar.)
Answer:
Break-even sales in dollars = $23,273
Explanation:
The break-even point is the selling price at which the selling price, equals the cost of production. no profit is made, but no loss is incurred too.
we will use the formula for calculating required selling price, to calculate the break-even price as follows:
Required selling price = (Fixed costs + Target profit) ÷ (Contribution margin ratio)
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ net sales revenue
Contribution margin = sales price - variable cost
contribution margin = 40 - 18 = $22
Net sales revenue = $40
∴ contribution margin ratio = (Contribution margin ÷ net sales revenue) × 100
= 22 ÷ 40 = 55.00% = 0.55
∴ Required selling price = (Fixed costs + Target profit) ÷ (Contribution margin ratio)
Required selling price = (12,800 + 0) ÷ 55.00%
= 12,800 ÷ 0.55 = 23,272.7 = 23,273 (to the nearest dollars)
Break-even sales in dollars = $23,273
Process Costing using First-in-First Out (FIFO) Crone Corporation uses the FIFO method in its processing costing system. The following data concern the company's Assembly Department for the month of October.
Cost in beginning work in process inventory $1,920
Units started and completed this month 3,130
Materials Conversion:
Cost per equivalent unit $9.50 $20.40
Equivalent units required to complete the units in
beginning work in process inventory 360 140
Equivalent units in ending work in process inventory 330 264
Required:
a. Determine the cost of ending work in process inventory
b. Determine the cost of units transferred out of the department during October.
Answer:
Cost of ending inventory= $8,520.6
Total cost of units transferred out=$99,863
Explanation:
Cost of ending inventory
Cost of items of inventory = cost per equivalent unit × No of units
Cost of items of inventory = ($9.50×330) + ($20.40 × 264)= $8,520.6
Total cost of units transferred out
The FIFO method of valuation of working in progress separates the units transferred out into opening inventory and fully worked.
The fully worked represents the units of inventory started and completed in the sames period.
The cost of units transferred out is the sum of h opening inventory and he fully worked. This done below:
Opening inventory = ($9.50 × 360) + ($20.40×140)= 6276
Transferred of fully worked = $(9.50 +$20.40) × 3,130= 93,587
Total cost of units transferred out = (6276 +93587)= $99,863

A water utility is planning to construct a grease treatment facility so that local haulers will not have to transport grease to a city 550 km away. The facility will cost $400,000 to build and $160,000 per year to operate. Benefits to the haulers and restaurant owners (through reduced costs) are expected to be $250,000 per year. If the facility will have a 10-year life, the B/C ratio at 6% per year is closest to:
Answer:
The B/C ratio at 6% per year is closest to 1.17
Explanation:
In order to calculate the B/C ratio at 6% per year we would have to make first the following calculations:
Present Worth(PW) of annual operating cost (excel formula) =PV(0.06,10,160000,0) = $1,177,613.93
PW of annual benefit (excel formula) =PV(0.06,10,250000,0) = $1,840,021.76
Present cost (at beginning of project) = $400,000
Therefore, to calculate the B/C ratio at 6% we would use the following formula:
B/C ratio at 6%=PW of benefits-PW of disbenefits/Initial cost+PW of operating and maintenance-PW of salvage value
B/C ratio = ($1,840,021.76 - 0)/($400,000 - $1,177,613.93) = 1.17
Match the following terms with the best definition given.
a. Currently attainable standard
b. Favorable cost variance
c. Ideal standard
d. Nonfinancial performance measure
e. Unfavorable cost variance
- An example is number of customer complaints.
- Actual cost > standard cost at actual volumes
- Actual cost < standard cost at actual volumes
- Normal standard
- Theoretical standard
Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
a. Currently attainable standard - Normal standard.
When a company says that a certain level of production is it's Currently Attainable Standard, they mean that this is the normal standard that they are able to operate in. That it is the standard that they have the actual capacity to produce at and so is normal for them.
b. Favorable cost variance - Actual cost < standard cost at actual volumes.
Variance cost in production is a measure that compares the cost that a company budgets to be able to produce a good vs the actual amount it takes to produce the said good. When the Budget is higher than the actual cost of production, it is said to be a FAVOURABLE balance because the budget was not exceeded.
c. Ideal standard - Theoretical standard.
This is the Standard that the company would like to be producing at to make a certain level of profit. It is usually different from the Normal Standard and the goal of most of not all companies is to work towards attaining their Ideal standard. They usually make Theoretical forecasts about their Ideal Standard.
d. Nonfinancial performance measure - An example is number of customer complaints.
There are many ways to measure performance but those ways are usually group into 2 categories being Financial and Non-financial measures of performance. The number of customer complaints that a business gets is a type of Non-financial Performance. As the intended market for a product, Customers are the most important appraisers of a Company's goods and services and if there are relatively low customer complaints, this shows that the company is performing well as they are able to please their customers.
e. Unfavorable cost variance - Actual cost > standard cost at actual volumes
As mentioned before, Variance helps determine the cost of production vs the budgeted cost of production. When a cost Variance is labeled as Unfavourable, it means that the Actual Cost exceeded the Budget of the production activity. This is unfavourable because it means that the business had to spend more than it thought it would on production thereby harming it's profit margins.
