RETAINED EARNINGS STATEMENT

For the Year Ended December 31, 2020

Retained earnings, January 1, as reported $715,700

Correction for overstatement of expenses in

prior period (net of tax) $88,840

Retained earnings, January 1, as adjusted $804,540

($715,700+$88,840)

Add Net income $1,567,700

Less Cash dividends ($83,500)

Retained earnings, December 31 $2,288,740

($804,540+$1,567,700-$83,500)

Therefore retained earnings statement for the year ended December 31, 2020 will be $2,288,740

A company purchased $10,000 of merchandise on June 15 with terms of 3/10, n/45, and FOB shipping point. The freight charge, $500, was added to the invoice amount. On June 20, it returned $800 of that merchandise. On June 24, it paid the balance owed for the merchandise taking any discount it is entitled to. The cash paid on June 24 equals:

Answers

Answer:

the cash paid as on June 24 is $9,424

Explanation:

The computation of the cash paid as on June 24 is as follows:

= Merchandise cost + Freight charge - Purchase returns - Discount Eligible at 3%

= $10,000 + $500 - $800 - [($10,000 - $800) × 0.03]

= $10,000 + $500 - $800 - $276

= $9,424

Hence, the cash paid as on June 24 is $9,424

Manufacturing overhead for the month was overapplied by $3,600. The Corporation allocates any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead among work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold at the end of the month on the basis of the manufacturing overhead applied during the month in those accounts. The work in process inventory at the end of March after allocation of any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead for the month is closest to: (Round intermediate percentage computations to the nearest whole percent.)

Answers

Answer: $19,648

Explanation:

This question is missing details that I could not find so I will answer with a similar question. You can use it to answer yours.

Work in process inventory at the end of March= Work in Process - Overapplied Manufacturing overhead overhead allocated to WIP

Percentage of overhead that went towards WIP:

= Manufacturing overhead applied to WIP/ Total overhead

= 5,830 / 51,920

= 11% (nearest whole percent)

Overapplied Overhead going allocated to WIP:

= Percentage of overhead to WIP * Overapplied overhead for the month

= 11% * $4,200

= $462

Work in process inventory at end of March = 20,110 - 462

= $19,648

Explanation:

acquired: Firm A has a margin of 11%, sales of $610,000, and ROI of 17%. Calculate the firm's average total assets. Firm B has net income of $72,000, turnover of 1.40, and average total assets of $920,000. Calculate the firm's sales, margin, and ROI. Firm C has net income of $136,000, turnover of 2.01, and ROI of 23.40%. Calculate the firm's margin, sales, and average total assets.

Answers

Answer:

1. Firm's average total assets = Net Income/ROI = $610,000*0.11 / 0.17 = $394,705.88

2. Sales = Assets turnover ratio * Average total assets = 1.40*920,000 = $1,288,000

Margin = Net Income / Sales = $72,000/$1,288,000 = 0.06

ROI = Net Income / Average Total Assets = $72,000/920,000 = 0.078

3. Average Total Assets = Net Income / ROI = $136,000/23.40% = 136,000/0.2340 = $581,196.58

Sales = Assets turnover ratio * Average total assets= 2.01*$581,196.58 = $1,168,205.12

Margin = Net Income / Sales = $136,000/$1,168,205.12 = 0.1164

The amount of money withheld from an employee's paycheck is...


A.Payroll deductions

B.Levied taxes

C.FICA

D.Gross earnings

Answers

Answer:

A.Payroll deductions

Explanation:

Withholding is the action by employers to retain a portion of an employee's salary for a specific function. Money withheld does not get to the employee bank's account. The amount withheld is shown in the pay stub, but the employee will not access it.

Employers collect the amounts withheld and remit them to the concerned agency. Deductions are usually a percentage of the employee's gross pay.

A supply curve is upward-sloping because At higher prices sellers have a greater incentive to produce more, ceteris paribus. The law of supply states that as price rises, the quantity supplied increases. At lower prices sellers may not be covering their costs of production and are therefore willing to supply less. All of the answers are correct.

Answers

Answer:

All of the answers are correct.

Explanation:

The law of supply states that in a production process when the price of. Commodity increases the suppliers are more willing to supply more goods, while when price falls suppliers tend to supply less goods.

This is as a result of lower motivation to sell at a lower price where profit margins are low. The higher the price the more the profit made so they are more motivated.

Also when prices are too low the suppliers may barely cover their cost of production so they tend to supply less.

Attached is a diagram of the supply curve

You are the owner of a winter sporting goods store and recently purchased a shipment of 60 sets of snowboards and snowboard bindings at a total cost of $29,000. (You were unable to purchase separately, and the smallest order was for a set of 60.) The community in which your store is located consists of many different types of snowboarders, ranging from expert to beginners. From historical data, you know that different snowboarders value snowboards and bindings differently. However, you cannot profitably price discriminate because you cannot prevent resale (arbitrage). Market research shows there are about 20 advanced snowboarders who value snowboards at $350 and bindings at $250, 20 intermediate snowboards who value snowboards at $250 and bindings at $275, and 20 beginning snowboarders who value snowboards at $175 and bindings at $325. Compare the profits earned under the following two pricing strategies: Selling snowboards and bindings separately at the profit-maximizing prices Bundling snowboards and bindings and selling for one price

Answers

Answer:

Profits Comparison:

                Sold Separately       Bundled

Revenue          $32,500            $30,000

Costs                 29,000              29,000

Profits               $3,500               $1,000

The calculations show that it is far better to sell the snowboards and bindings separately at the profit-maximizing prices than bundling them and selling for one price.

This is because, if the single price is more than $500, the beginners might not buy the items and they will remain unsold.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations

Suppose the price elasticity of demand for cigarettes is -0.8 and that the government can essentially set the price of cigarettes by altering the tax rate. If the government wishes to reduce the quantity of cigarettes demanded by 15 ​percent, how much must it raise the price of​ cigarettes? The​ government, to achieve its​ goal, must raise the price of cigarettes by nothing percent. ​(Enter your response rounded to two decimal​ places.)

Answers

Answer: 18.75%

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand shows the change in quantity demanded as a result of a change in price.

If the price elasticity is negative, it means that quantity demanded and price move in opposing directions. If prices increase, quantity demanded decreases and vice versa.

Price elasticity of demand = Change in quantity demanded / Change in price

-0.8 = - 15% / x

-0.8x = -15%

x = -15% / -0.8

= 18.75%

Milton Friedman argued that: appropriate antitrust policy can prevent businesses from causing inflation. inflation is a phenomenon of capitalist economies. prices need to be regulated and set by the government to prevent inflation. general price level increases result from the government printing too much money.

Answers

Answer:

Prices need to be regulated and set by the government to prevent inflation.

Explanation:

Milton Friedman was a monetarist. Monetarists believe in the quantity theory of money which states that inflation is a direct result of the growth of the amount of money in an economy. One of the most famous quotes by Friedman is "Inflation is always, and everywhere, a monetary phenomenon".

Under this reasoning, Friedman proposed that the government should control the money supply in order to address and maintain a stable price level, in other words, low inflation.

Friedman policies were implemented in the U.S. since the late 1970s, and emulated in most other countries in the world. Ever since, the monetary policy of most countries in the world has been aimed at controlling inflation and keeping it low.

An index consists of the following securities and has an index divisor of 3.0. What is the price-weighted index return? Stock Shares Outstanding Begin Price End Price A 4,500 $ 20 $ 25 B 7,000 $ 15 $ 12 C 3,000 $ 28 $ 35

Answers

Answer:

14.29%

Explanation:

Calculation for the price-weighted index return

Price-weighted index return = [($25 + $12 + $35)/3] - [($20 + $15 + $28)/3]/[($20 + $15+ $28)/3]

Price-weighted index return =[($72/3)-($63/3)]/($63/3)

Price-weighted index return =($24-$21)/$21

Price-weighted index return =$3/$21

Price-weighted index return =0.1429*100

Price-weighted index return =14.29%

Therefore the Price-weighted index return will be 14.29%

The last dividend paid was $1.00. If an investor requires a 10% return on Beachballs, the price she is willing to pay for the stock is closest to:

Answers

Answer: $36.50

Explanation:

The price she will be willing to be paid according to the Dividend Discount model is calculated by finding the present value of the future dividends and the terminal value.

Dividend year 1 = 1 * (1 + 20%) = $1.20

Dividend year 2 = 1.20 * (1 + 20%) = $1.44

Dividend year 3 = 1.44 * (1 + 15%) = $1.656

Terminal value = Dividend in year 4 / (required return - growth rate)

= (1.656 * (1 + 6%)) / ( 10% - 6%)

= $43.884

[tex]Price = \frac{1.2}{(1 + 0.10)} + \frac{1.44}{(1 + 0.10)^{2} } + \frac{1.656}{(1 + 0.10)^{3} } + \frac{43.884}{(1 + 0.10)^{3} }\\\\= 36.4959\\\\= 36.50[/tex]

It is hoping to sell the shares for an offer price of $25. It hires an investment bank, which suggests that the offer price for the stock should be $20 per share to ensure that all the shares can be easily sold. 5. What is the advantage of following the advice of the investment bankers? What is the disadvantage? Is the investment bank’s incentive to sell the shares aligned with the incentives of East Bay Semi? What trade-off does East Bay Semi face in this decision regarding the issue price? Briefly explain

Answers

Answer:

What is the advantage of following the advice of the investment bankers? What is the disadvantage?

Whenever a small company decides to carry out an IPO, the risk of not selling all the stocks exists and it has happened many times before. East Bay's executives probably believe that their company is the next Apple or Microsoft, or any other super huge high tech corporation. But the reality is that it is not. If the IPO goes on and not all the stocks are sold, the stock price will plummet by the end of the trading day.

On the other hand, maybe East Bay in a couple of years will be worth more than Tesla, Amazon or any other top corporation, and pricing their stocks too low will only result in losing money.

Your farm encompasses 900 acres, and you are planning to grow soybeans, corn, and wheat in the coming planting season. Fertilizer costs per acre are: $5 for soybeans, $2 for corn, and $1 for wheat. You estimate that each acre of soybeans will require an average of 5 hours of labor per week, while tending to corn and wheat will each require an average of 2 hours per week. Based on past yields and current market prices, you estimate a profit of $9,000 for each acre of soybeans, $6,000 for each acre of corn, and $3,000 for each acre of wheat. You can afford to spend no more than $5,400 on fertilizer, and your farm laborers can supply 5,400 hours per week. How many acres of each crop should you plant to maximize total profits

Answers

Answer:

Using solver, the optimal solution = 900 acres of soybean resulting in $8,100,000 profit

Explanation:

you need to maximize 9000S + 6000C + 3000W

where:

S = acres of soybean

C = acres of corn

W = acres of wheat

constraints:

S + C + W ≤ 900

5S + 2C + 1W ≤ 5400

5S + 2C + 2W ≤ 5400

S, C, W ≥ 0

S, C, W are whole numbers

Using solver, the optimal solution = 900 acres of soybean resulting in $8,100,000 profit

The Retained earnings account has a credit balance of $39,000 before closing entries are made. Total revenues for the period are $57,200, total expenses are $40,800, and dividends are $9800. What is the correct closing entry for the expense accounts?

Answers

Answer:

A company issues a callable (at par) five-year, 7% coupon bond with annual coupon payments. The bond can be called at par in one year after release or any time after that on a coupon payment date. On release, it has a price of $110 per $100 of face value. What is the yield to worst of this bond in percentage when it is released

Answers

Answer:

the worse case scenario is that the bond yields -2.73%

Explanation:

the worst case scenario is that the bonds are called one year after they are issued.

you invest $110 today

in one year, you will receive $100 + $7 = $107

your holding period return = ($107 - $110) / $110 = -0.02727 ≈ -2.73%

generally callable bonds are sold at lower prices than regular bonds, so a situation like this is very unlikely since the issue price should probably be lower.

Smith Company exchanges assets to acquire a building. The market price of the Smith stock on the exchange date was $35 per share and the building's book value on the books of the seller was $250,000. Which of the following journal entries is correct for Smith Company when Smith issues 10,000 shares of $10 par value common stock and pays $20,000 cash in exchange for the building?
A) The common stock account increases by $100,000.
B) The building account increases by $370,000.
C) Stockholders' equity increases $350,000.
D) The additional paid-in capital account increases by $100,000.

Answers

Answer:

B) The building account increases by $370,000.

Explanation:

Since the per share value is $35

Also the 10,000 shares are issued at $10 and pays $20,000 in exchange of building

So the building account would be increased by

= 10,000 shares × $35 + $20,000

= $350,000 + $20,000

= $370,000

hence, the correct option is B.
