Answers

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.

Ivory Corporation, a calendar year, accrual method C corporation, has two cash method, calendar year shareholders who are unrelated to each other. Craig owns 35% of the stock, and Oscar owns the remaining 65%. During 2019, Ivory paid a salary of $100,000 to each shareholder. On December 31, 2019, Ivory accrued a bonus of $25,000 to each shareholder. Assuming that the bonuses are paid to the shareholders on February 1, 2020, compute Ivory Corporation's 2019 deduction for the above amounts.

Answers

Answer:

$225,000

Explanation:

Computation for Ivory Corporation's 2019 deduction for the above amounts.

In a situation where a Corporation uses the accrual method such Corporation cannot in any way claim a deduction for an accrual with respect to a related party reason been that the recipient have to reports the amount as income.

Therefore Ivory Corporation cannot deduct the $25,000 bonus which was attributable to Oscar because Oscar is the related party until the year 2018.

Ivory Corporation should go ahead and deduct in 2017 the salary payments which is been made to each shareholder plus the accrued bonus to Craig, or $225,000

Salary of $100,000 + Salary of $100,000 + $25,000 bonus

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

Answers

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

Answer:

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)?

$200,123

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?

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.

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?

Answers

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

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Machine setup= 16,000/(40+25+15)= $200 per setup

Machining= 110,000/ (5,000 + 1,000 + 4,000= $11 per machine hour

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?

Answers

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 = $52

break 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

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

Answers

i’m sorry but i don’t understand your question.

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.

Answers

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

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

A Risk Report details the risks such as Supplier failure, Inflation, Pending Government Regulations and the like. It then takes these and summarizes them for presentation to those who require this information in the company so that appropriate safeguards may be set up and precautions taken.

This describes the first document and so should be what the Project Manager names it.

Answer: An effective Internal Control

Auditors must evaluate internal controls

Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board

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.

This was why in 2002, the US Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley act that aimed to ensure that the actions of those companies were never repeated.

The act requires the following;

a) An effective Internal Control

The act requires that companies enact very effective Internal controls to detect financial irregularities and even went forward to make it the responsibility of the Top Executives to ensure that this is so.

b) Auditors must Evaluate Internal Controls.

Auditors had to change their auditing strategies that were deemed inefficient. They are now required to properly evaluate in-depth, the internal controls that a company adopts to be able to give an opinion on it and they do this based on the guidelines of the Public Accounting Board.

c) Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board

The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB)  was established by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act with it's main purpose being to monitor and oversee auditors as they audit companies so that they may protect the public from false financial information. They set rules and standards that Auditors must follow and these rules in turn have to be approved by the Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC).

To ensure that the deeds of those corporations were never repeated, the US Congress created the Sarbanes-Oxley act in 2002:

An effective Internal Control.Auditors must evaluate internal controls.Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board.

US Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley act, all financial reports must contain an Internal Controls Report demonstrating that the company's financial data is accurate and that sufficient controls are in place to protect it.

A yearly evaluation of internal controls by a third-party CPA firm to see how successful each one is. The auditor of a publicly traded firm must vouch for management's evaluation of internal controls and provide a report on it.

As a result, the significance of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires are the aforementioned.

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.)

Answers

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

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?

Answers

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)
