g "At the start of the current year, Minuteman Corporation had a credit balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts of $3,500. During the year a monthly provision of 3% of sales was made for uncollectible accounts. Sales for the year were $1,110,000, and $7,200 of accounts receivable were written off as worthless. No recoveries of accounts previously written off were made during the year. The year-end financial statements should show:"
Answer: Allowance for the doubtful accounts with a credit balance of $29,600
Explanation:
From the information that is provided in the question, the following can be deduced and the year-end financial statements should show:
Allowance for the doubtful accounts with a credit balance will be calculated as: the beginning allowance for the doubtful accounts + (the sales × Provision % ) - accounts receivable that were written off.
= $3,500 + ($1,110,000 × 3%) - $7,200
= $3500 + $33300 - $7200
= $36800 - $7200
= $29,600

Target profit is $100,000; fixed overhead costs are $120,000 and fixed selling and administrative costs are $50,000. If total variable cost is $675,000, the markup percentage to the variable cost using the variable cost method is %. Round your answer to the nearest whole percent
Answer:
40%
Explanation:
The markup percentage to the variable cost using the variable cost method can be obtained by dividing the addition of the target profit and total fixed cost by the total variable cost as follows:
Total fixed cost = Fixed overhead costs + Fixed selling and administrative costs = $120,000 + $50,00 = $170,000
The markup percentage to the variable cost = (Target profit + Total fixed cost) / Total variable cost = ($100,000 + $170,000) / $675,000 = $270,000 / $675,000 = 0.40, or 40%.
Therefore, the markup percentage to the variable cost using the variable cost method is 40%.
A firm sells 1000 units per week. It charges $15 per unit, the average variable costs are $10, and the average costs are $25. In the long run, the firm should a. Shut-down because it is cost effective to pay off the remaining fixed costs b. Continue operating as the firm is covering all the variable costs and some of the fixed costs c. Shut-down as the firm is making a loss of $10,000 per week d. Shut-down as price is lower than average cost
Answer:
b. Continue operating as the firm is covering all the variable costs and some of the fixed costs
Explanation:
A firm should shutdown operations if its price is less than average variable cost.
The price the firm sells is $15
Average variable cost is $10.
Price is greater than average variable cost in excess of $5.
The $5 covers some of the average fixed cost.

A year ago, Kim Altman purchased 200 shares of BLK, Inc. for $25.50 on margin. At that time the margin requirement was 40 percent. If the interest rate on borrowed funds was 9 percent and she sold the stock for $34, what is the percentage return on the funds she invested in the stock
Answer:
69.83%
Explanation:
Calculation for Kim Altman percentage return on the funds she invested in the stock
Calculation for Kim’s own money =
$5100 x .4 = $2040
Caluculation for total Long Position =
$34 x 200 = $6800
Calculation for Interest Borrowed =
$3060 x .09 = $275.4
Total gain/profit =
$6800 - $5100 - $275.4
= $1424.60
Percentage on Return
= $1424.60 / $2040 = .6983
.6893x 100 = 69.83%
Therefore the percentage return will be 69.83%
Holding other factors constant, if bad weather destroys the annual crop for carrots, it causes the supply curve for carrots to a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise b. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts. c. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to fall d. Stay the sam
Answer: a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise
Explanation:
The bad weather destroyed the annual crop of carrots. This will reduce the supply for Carrots. A reduction in supply forces the Supply Curve to shift to the left and assuming the demand curve remains the same, the new supply curve will intersect the demand curve a higher equilibrium price.
This is done to obey the Rules of Supply that when a good is scarce, it is more expensive.
Notice how the supply curve shifted left in the diagram and prices rose.
You would like to invest in one of the profitable business units of a multinational corporation. In a meeting with management, you explain that you'll only consider a unit categorized, according to the BCG matrix, as a question mark. Here are your choices:Unit A has revenue of $27 billion and a profit of $6 billion. While its product is based on a new technology that is rapidly increasing in sales, the product currently lags the market share of competitors.Unit B has revenue of $30 billion and a profit of $7 billion. Its market share is strong and growing. While its product is based on an outdated technology, the product has a loyal following for now.Which of the corporation's two profitable units meets your criterion?
Answer:
Unit A has revenue of $27 billion and a profit of $6 billion. While its product is based on a new technology that is rapidly increasing in sales, the product currently lags the market share of competitors.
Explanation:
According to the BCG Matrix, question marks are business units that operate in rapidly growing markets but currently only possess a low market share.
This results in a lot of cash being consumed by the business unit, but also the possibility of high growth. It is called a question mark because it is uncertain if the business unit will be successful or not. This means that they are very risky investments.
Some countries have oil as a natural resource and bronze plate inc, based in illinois, is considering building a facility in one of those foreign countries since it does not have easy access to oil near its manufacturing plant. Which theory of foreign direct investment provides an explanation for this decision?
A) eclectic paradigm
B) infant industry argument
C) protectionism argument
D) product life cycle theory
E) new trade theory
Answer: A) eclectic paradigm
Explanation:
An Eclectic Paradigm is also called a OLI Framework which is an acronym that stands for Ownership, Location, Internationalization.
Companies use this theory in cost based analysis to determine if they can reduce costs by producing in house as opposed to from the market.
It is usually applied to the area of Foreign Direct Investment where companies use it to decide if it is better to invest in another country and have easier access to goods that it needs as opposed to buying it from the market. If it is shown that they stand to gain more from investing directly in another country, they will use this option.
This is the theory that Bronze Plate Inc wants to use.

Gretchen has just started as a fashion marketing intern for an up-and-coming design firm. When she came in, she was asked to work on a project identifying important events where celebrities might wear the fashions. She soon realized that this activity was part of _____________, directly related to marketing.
Answer:
A push-pull strategy
Explanation:
The Push strategy is an aspect of marketing where the marketer aims at taking his products directly to a target audience. This is done so as to stimulate the interest of the consumer in that particular product. Developing brands tend to employ this strategy to showcase themselves to the consumer in hopes of getting them attracted to their products. This is the strategy which the up-and-coming design firm is trying to employ when they seek to identify important events where celebrities might wear the fashions. They engage in this activity because they want to showcase their designs to the target audience- the celebrities.
Pull strategy is the opposite of this strategy as customers are now aware of the reputation of the brand and then seek them out on their own.

The material price variance
$
4000 units should have cost (4,000× 1.75) = 7,000
but did cost - actual cost (4,000× $1.65) = 6,600
Material price variance 400 favorable
Material price variance = $400

Trudy is Jocelyn's friend. Trudy looks after Jocelyn's four-year-old son during the day so Jocelyn can go to work. During the year, Jocelyn paid Trudy $4,180 to care for her son. What is the amount of Jocelyn's child and dependent care credit if her AGI for the year was $31,800
Answer:
The answer is $810
Explanation:
Solution
Child and dependent care credit is certain percentage of qualifying care expenses based on the adjusted gross income. The maximum qualifying amount of daycare expenses is $3,000 per qualifying person.
Now from this example, Jocelyn had paid $4,180 to take care of her son and so,the qualifying amount of care expenses will be $3,000.
Since GI for the year is $31,800, the child and dependent care credit will be 27% of the qualifying care expenses that is,. $3,000 * 27% = $810
Alpaca Corporation had revenues of $250,000 in its first year of operations. The company has not collected on $18,900 of its sales and still owes $27,000 on $96,000 of merchandise it purchased. The company had no inventory on hand at the end of the year. The company paid $12,700 in salaries. Owners invested $14,000 in the business and $14,000 was borrowed on a five-year note. The company paid $3,800 in interest that was the amount owed for the year, and paid $7,800 for a two-year insurance policy on the first day of business. Alpaca has an effective income tax rate of 40%. (Assume taxes are paid in the same year). Compute the cash balance at the end of the first year for Alpaca Corporation.
Answer:
$84,360.00
Explanation:
The cash balance at the end of the year is simply total cash receipts minus total cash payments which is further analyzed below:
Cash receipt from sales=total sales-accounts receivable=$250,000-$18,900=$ 231,100.00
Cash paid for merchandise purchase=purchases-accounts payable=$96,000-$27,000=$69,000
Salaries paid $12,700
Cash from owners is $14,000
cash from borrowing is $14,000
interest paid is $3800
insurance paid is $7,800
Tax paid=(sales-purchases-salaries paid-insurance cost(one year)-interest paid)*tax rate
insurance for one year=$7800*1/2=$3,900
tax paid=($250,000-$96,000-$12,700-$3,800-$3,900)*40%=$53440
Cash balance=$231,100-$69,000-$12,700+$14,000-$14,000-$3800-$7800-$53440=$84,360.00
Jasper and Crewella Dahvill were married in year 0. They filed joint tax returns in years 1 and 2. In year 3, their relationship was strained and Jasper insisted on filing a separate tax return. In year 4, the couple divorced. Both Jasper and Crewella filed single tax returns in year 4. In year 5, the IRS audited the couple’s joint year 2 tax return and each spouse’s separate year 3 tax returns. The IRS determined that the year 2 joint return and Crewella’s separate year 3 tax return understated Crewella’s self-employment income, causing the joint return year 2 tax liability to be understated by $12,700 and Crewella’s year 3 separate return tax liability to be understated by $7,350. The IRS also assessed penalties and interest on both of these tax returns. Try as it might, the IRS has not been able to locate Crewella, but they have been able to find Jasper. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required.)
a. What amount of tax can the IRS require Jasper to pay for the Dahvill’s year 2 joint return?
Amount of Tax:__________________
b. What amount of tax can the IRS require Jasper to pay for Crewella’s year 3 separate tax return?
Amount of Tax:__________________
Answer: a. $12,700
b. $0
Explanation:
a. As Jasper and Crewella Dahvill filed joint tax returns in Year 2, both of them are joint and severally liable for any errors that may arise in the filing. The IRS could not find Crewella but they could find Jasper and as he is liable as well, he will have to pay the full amount that Crewella understated their tax liability by.
b. In year 3, Jasper and Crewella Dahvill had a strained relationship and filed their returns separately. As a result Jasper is not liable for any errors that will arise from Crewella's tax returns filing including the understatement of tax liability.
suppose dave's discount merchandise inventory account showed a balance of 8000 before the year end adjustments. The physical count of goods on hand totaled 7400. Dave uses a perpetual inventory system. To adjust the accounts, which entry would the company make
Answer:
Cost of goods sold DR 600
Merchandise inventory CR 600
Explanation:
A perpetual inventory system is a method of inventory management that is used in order to records real-time transactions of received or sold stock. In this system, based on the information provided the company would make the following entry
Cost of goods sold DR 600
Merchandise inventory CR 600
This is because there is a difference on physical goods on hand of 600, meaning that they sold that amount throughout the year. Which is made as a Cost of Goods Sold entry. The company also needs to enter the amount of goods that have been acquired by a distributor, wholesaler, or retailer from suppliers which would be the same.
Hastings Corporation is interested in acquiring Vandell Corporation. Vandell has 1 million shares outstanding and a target capital structure consisting of 30% debt; its beta is 1.10 (given its target capital structure). Vandell has $8.67 million in debt that trades at par and pays an 7.3% interest rate. Vandell’s free cash flow (FCF0) is $1 million per year and is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% a year. Both Vandell and Hastings pay a 40% combined federal and state tax rate. The risk-free rate of interest is 6% and the market risk premium is 7%. Hastings Corporation estimates that if it acquires Vandell Corporation, synergies will cause Vandell’s free cash flows to be $2.5 million, $3.2 million, $3.5 million, and $3.57 million at Years 1 through 4, respectively, after which the free cash flows will grow at a constant 6% rate. Hastings plans to assume Vandell’s $8.67 million in debt (which has an 7.3% interest rate) and raise additional debt financing at the time of the acquisition. Hastings estimates that interest payments will be $1.5 million each year for Years 1, 2, and 3. After Year 3, a target capital structure of 30% debt will be maintained. Interest at Year 4 will be $1.465 million, after which the interest and the tax shield will grow at 6%. Indicate the range of possible prices that Hastings could bid for each share of Vandell common stock in an acquisition. Round your answers to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
The bid for each share should range between $ ______ per share and $ _______ per share.
Answer:
$40.79 per share and $52.90 per share
Explanation:
Cost of Debt (Kd) = Wd * Rd (1 - T)
Cost of Debt for Vandell Corporation is $7.30 * (1 - 0.40) = 4.38%
Cost of Equity (Ke) = Rf + [tex]\beta[/tex] * Rp
Cost of Equity for Vandell Corporation is 6 + 1.10 * 7 = 13.70%
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) = Wd * Kd + We * Ke
Cash Flow of Firm = $2.5m + $3.2m + $3.5m + $3.57m = $12.77
Weight of Equity = $8.94
WACC = 30% * 4.38% + 70% * 13.70% = 10.9%
CashFlows after discounting synergy will be = $40.79
