Answer:
$15,000
Explanation:
With regards to the above information, the estimated cost of inventory that was destroyed by fire is computed as
= [Sales - (Purchases + Inventory)]
Given that;
Sales 1/1/16 through 7/3/16 = $240,000
Purchases 1/1/16 through 7/3/16 = $180,000
Inventory 1/1/16 = $45,000
= [$240,000 - ($180,000 + $45,000)]
= $240,000 - $225,000
= $15,000

All materials are added at the start of production. Refer to Keyser Corporation. Assume that the cost per EUP for material and conversion are $1.75 and $4.55, respectively. What is the cost assigned to ending Work in Process
Answer:
The cost assigned to ending Work in Process explanations only.
Explanation:
Hi your question is incomplete, I tried to look for it online but I could not find it.
Here are some explanations and steps you need to consider to answer this question.
The cost assigned to ending Work in Process :
Ending Work in Process usually have different number of equivalent units of production with respect to materials and conversion cost depending on the percentage of work completed for materials and conversion during the production process.
Step 1
So the first step is to calculate the equivalent units of production of Ending Ending work in process for Materials and Conversion costs.
Equivalent units of production = Physical units x Percentage completion (Materials / Conversion).
Step 2
The next step would be to calculate the cost assigned to ending Work in Process.
Equivalent units in materials are multiplied against Cost per Equivalent Unit) EUP for materials ($1.75 ) so is the Equivalent units in conversion costs against Cost per Equivalent Unit) EUP for conversion ($1.75). The total of the two amounts is the cost assigned to ending Work in Process.
The Lumbar Chair Company manufacturers a standard recliner. During February, the firm's Assembly Department started production of 140,000 chairs. During the month, the firm completed 180,000 chairs and transferred them to the Finishing Department. The Assembly Department ended the month with 25,000 chairs in process. All direct materials costs are added at the beginning of the production cycle. Conversion costs are incurred uniformly over the production cycle. Weighted-average costing is used by Lumbar. How many of the chairs that were started were also completed during February
Answer:
115,000 chairs
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How many of the chairs that were started were also completed during February
Using this formula
Chairs started and Completed=Beginning chairs production-Ending chairs production
Let plug in the formula
Chairs started and Completed=140,000 chairs- 25,000 chairs
Chairs started and Completed= 115,000 chairs
Therefore The numbers of chairs that were started and were also completed during February will be 115,000 chairs

What is the solution to this problem?
Flintstone Company is owned equally by Fred Stone and his sister Wilma, each of whom hold 2,400 shares in the company. Wilma wants to reduce her ownership in the company, and it was decided that the company will redeem 480 of her shares for $30,700 per share on December 31 of this year. Wilmaâs income tax basis in each share is $7,900. Flintstone has current E&P of $10,930,000 and accumulated E&P of $50,210,000.
a. What is the amount and character (capital gain or dividend) recognized by Wilma as a result of the stock redemption, assuming only the "substantially disproportionate with respect to the shareholder" test is applied?
b. What is Wilmaâs income tax basis in the remaining 1,920 shares she owns in the company?
c. Assuming the company did not make any dividend distributions this year, by what amount does Flintstone reduce its E&P as a result of the redemption?
Answer:
Explanation:
From the given information:
In Flinstone company;
The old ownership = 2400/(2400+200) = 50%
New onwership = 1920/(1920 + 2400) = 44.4%
The reduction in Wilma ownership in Flinstone company is from 50% to 44.4%
Dividend amount perceived by WIlma is:
$30700 × 480 shares = $14,736,000
The responsibility of Wilma in the wake of taking the redemption is in reality more than the 40% (80% x 50%), so she fails the considerably disproportionate test.
Hence, dividend recognition = $1,47,36,000
b)
Wilma's personal income tax expense premise in excess shares can be determined by summing back the unused tax premise of 480 offers reclaimed to the premise of her leftover offers 1920.
unused tax premise of 480 shares = 480 × $7900 = $37,92,000
premises of the remaining shares = 1920 × $7900 = $1,51,68,000
In the remaining shares, WIlma income tax = $37,92,000 + $1,51,68,000
= $1,89,60,000
c)
Flintstone will make the decrease in its E&P by a measure of profit perceived by Wilma =$1,47,36,000

Leo Manufacturing Company uses the FIFO method in its process costing system. The first processing department, the Soldering Department, started the month with 32,000 units in its beginning work-in-process inventory that were 70% complete with respect to conversion costs. The conversion cost in this beginning work-in-process inventory was $116,150. An additional 84,500 units were started into production during the month. There were 38,000 units in the ending work-in-process inventory of the Soldering Department that were 80% complete with respect to conversion costs. A total of $580,125 in conversion costs were incurred in the department during the month. What would be the cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs?
Answer:
$6.71 per unit
Explanation:
The computation of the cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs is shown below:
As we know that
Cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs is
= Total conversion cost in the month ÷ Equivalent Units of Production
where,
Equivalent units of Production is
= (Beginning Inventory × Percentage completed in the month) + [(Units started in the month - Ending Inventory) × 100%] + (Ending Inventory × percentage completed in the month)
= (32,000 × 30%) + [(84,500 - 38,000) × 100%] + (38,000 × 80%)
= 86,500 units
Now the cost per equivalent unit for conversion cost is
= $580,125 ÷ 86,500 units
= $6.71 per unit

Select one: A. $2,042.37 per unit B. $2,434.27 per unit C. $2,996.06 per unit D. $2,525.39 per unit
Answer:
C.$2,996.06 per unit
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The unit product cost of Product N0 under activity-based costing is closest to:
First step is to Compute the activity rates
Activity Cost (a)Estimated Overhead cost (b)Total Expected Activity (a) ÷(b)Activity Rate
Labor-related $39,636÷2,700DLHs=$14.68per DLH
Production orders $57,421÷ 1,300orders =$44.17per order
Order size $432,075 ÷7,500MHs =$57.61per MH
Second step is to Compute the overhead cost per unit under activity-based costing
Using this formula
Overhead cost per unit=Activity Cost Pools and Activity Rates*Expected Activity=Amount
Let plug in the formula
Product N0
Labor-related, at $14.68 per DLH *1,100 =$16,148
Production orders, at $44.17 per order *700 =$30,919
Order size, $57.61 per MH *3,900 =$224,679
Total overhead costs assigned (a)$271,746
($16,148+$30,919+$224,679)
Number of units produced (b)100
Overhead cost per unit (a) ÷ (b)$2,717.46
($271,746÷100)
Third step is to Compute the unit product costs under activity-based costing
Product N0
Direct materials $104.80
Direct labor $173.80
(11.0 DLHs × $15.80 per DLH)
Overhead $2,717.46
Unit product cost $2,996.06
($104.80+$173.80+$2,717.46)
Therefore The unit product cost of Product N0 under activity-based costing is closest to: $2,996.06

The Sandeep Company's April 30 pre-reconciliation cash balance on its books was $35,000. While preparing the April 30 bank reconciliation, Sandeep determined that outstanding checks total $11,000, deposits in transit total $7,000, and bank service charges are $50. Assuming there are no other reconciling items, what was Sandeep's April 30 cash balance per the bank statement
Answer: $38,950
Explanation:
The bank balance and the book cash balance might often be different for different reasons, one of which is due to the transactions recorded in the books not having been processed by the banks amongst others.
The books and bank balance will therefore need to be reconciled.
Balance per bank statement = Cash balance in books + Outstanding checks - Deposits in transit - Bank charges
= 35,000 + 11,000 - 7,000 - 50
= $38,950

($120,000)
* Purchases (see calculation below)
($485,000)
Closing cash balance
$83,000
We will use the below to get purchases
Opening stock + Purchases - Closing stock = Cost of sales
Therefore,
$300,000 + Purchases - $330,000 = 70% × $650,000
Purchases = $455,000 + $330,000 - $300,000
Purchases = $485,000
The budgeted cash disbursement
= Purchases + Selling and admin
= $485,000 + $120,000
= $605,000
Imagine a hypothetical economy with a population of 100 people, 80 of which over sixteen. Forty eight of these people who are working and twelve people who are willing, able and looking for work cannot find jobs. The unemployment rate in this economy is____________ % (enter percentage as a whole number, not a decimal, no percentage sign). S
Suppose that 10 of those unemployed people get discouraged and give up looking for work. Now, the unemployment rate is __________% (enter percentage as a whole number, not a decimal, no percentage sign).
Answer:
a) unemployment rate = 15
b) unemployment rate = 2.5
Explanation:
unemployed people are those who are willing and available to work and have actively been seeking a job in the past four weeks. This accurately describes the 12 people who are willing, able and looking for work but cannot find jobs. To calculate the unemployment rate in percentage, the following formula is used:
[tex]unemployment\ rate = \frac{number\ of\ unemployed}{labour\ force} \times 100\\[/tex]
Where:
a) Number of unemployed = 12
Labour force = 80 (number of people over 16 years of age)
[tex]\therefore unemployment\ rate = \frac{12}{80} \times 100 = 0.15 \times 100 = 15\\[/tex]
b) if 10 of the unemployed people get discouraged and give up looking for work, the number of unemployed becomes 2 persons, (12 - 10 = 2).
[tex]\therefore unemployment\ rate = \frac{2}{80} \times 100 = \frac{200}{80} = 2.5[/tex]

Answer:
$3900
$8600
$3600
Explanation:
This is the remaining part of the question :
Required: Calculate depreciation expense of the equipment for the first year, using each of the following methods
1. Straight-line.
2.Double Declining Method
3.Activity Based
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
(43,000 - 4000) / 10 = $3900
Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset
Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2/10 = 0.2
Depreciation expense = 0.2 x $43,000 = $8600
Activity method based on hours worked = (hours worked that year / total hours of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)
(1200 / 13,000) x (43,000 - 4000) = $3600

There are several leadership styles, some of which are autocratic, human and participatory, and the local and organizational culture directly influences the style of domestic management.
Suppose a firm produces with a technology that exhibits constant returns to scale at all levels of production. The firm's inputs are workers and laptops. The firm sells its output in a perfectly competitive market. It also hires its inputs (hires workers and rents laptops) in perfectly competitive markets. Assume that in the long run the firm produces y units of output using x1 workers and x2 laptops. If the firm doubles the amount of workers and laptops (using 2x1 and 2x2), we would expect the firm's long-run profits to
Answer:
Not change
Explanation:
In the long run we expect firms to earn zero profits. With competitive markets for both inputs and output, and with constant returns to scale, a doubling of all inputs would lead to twice as much output, twice as much revenue, and twice as much cost.

Concord Corporation had 302000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at December 31, 2020. No common stock was issued during 2021. On January 1, 2021, Concord issued 201000 shares of nonconvertible preferred stock. During 2021, Concord declared and paid $100000 cash dividends on the common stock and $81000 on the preferred stock. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $611000. What should be Concord's 2021 earnings per common share
Answer:
$1.05 per share
Explanation:
Earnings per share is computed as
= (Net income reported - Preferred stock dividend) ÷ (Outstanding number of shares + additional shares issued)
= ($611,000 - $81,000) ÷ (302,000 + 201,000)
= $530,000 ÷ 503,000
= $1.05 per share.
Therefore, Concord's 2021 earnings per common share is $1.05 per share.
(1 point) The manager of a large apartment complex knows from experience that 110 units will be occupied if the rent is 300 dollars per month. A market survey suggests that, on the average, one additional unit will remain vacant for each 2 dollar increase in rent. Similarly, one additional unit will be occupied for each 2 dollar decrease in rent. What rent should the manager charge to maximize revenue
Answer:
$270
Explanation:
If the rent is $300 then 110 units will be occupied. The manager of the apartment complex should set a price which will maximize the revenue. When the rent is increased by $2 then one additional unit will be left vacant. This will reduce the revenue of the apartment manager. The equation to find the best possible rent which maximizes the total revenue is:
Profit = 110 (p - 300)
P = 110p - 330
P = 270.
The rent for the apartment should be 270 so the total revenue will be maximized.

Jack and Jill are the only two residents in a neighbourhood, and they would like to hire a security guard. The value of a security guard is $50 per month to Jack and $90 per month to Jill. Irrespective of who pays the guard, the guard will protect the entire neighbourhood and charge $120 per month for the service. Suppose Jack earns $4,000 per month and Jill earns $8,000 per month.
a. With a proportional tax of 1 percent on income, how much would Jack and Jill pay, and would it be enough to pay for the security guard?
Jack would pay $ _____.
Jill would pay $ _____.
This tax _____ be enough to pay for the security guard.
b. Suppose instead that Jack proposes a payment scheme under which Jack and Jill would each receive the same net benefit from hiring the guard. How much would Jack and Jill pay now?
Jack would pay $ _____.
Jill would pay $ _____.
Would both Jack and Jill vote for this scheme? _____
Answer:
Jack and Jill
a. With a proportional tax of 1 percent on income, it would be enough to pay for the security guard $120.
Jack would pay $ __40___.
Jill would pay $ __80___.
This tax _will____ be enough to pay for the security guard.
b. Based on net benefit from the guard:
Jack would pay $ __43___.
Jill would pay $ _ 77____.
Would both Jack and Jill vote for this scheme? __No___ Jack will feel cheated by Jill in the sum of $3. Jack will likely prefer the 1% based on income.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Value of a security guard for Jack = $50 per month
Value of a security guard for Jill = $90 per month
Total value of a security guard for both Jack and Jill = $140 ($50 + $90)
Cost of hiring a guard = $120 per month
Jack's monthly earnings = $4,000
Jill's monthly earnings = $8,000
Total monthly earnings for both Jack and Jill = $12,000
a. Proportional tax of 1 percent on income = $120 ($12,000 * 1%)
Jack will pay $4,000 * 1% = $40
Jill will pay $8,000 * 1% = $80
Total = $120
b. Net benefit scheme:
Jack will pay $50/$140 * $120 = $43
Jill will pay $90/$140 * $120 = $77
Total = $120
