Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) $76500

B) $72500

C) $24750

D) tax refund of $260

Explanation:

A) calculate Marc and Michelle's gross income

Marc salary = $64000

Michelle's salary = $12000

interest from corporate bond = $ 500

Hence gross income = 64000 + 12000 + 500 = $76500

B) Calculate Marc and Michelle's Adjusted gross income

Gross income = $76500

qualifying moving expenditure = $2500

Alimony paid to previous spouse = $1500

adjusted gross income = 76500 - 2500 - 1500 = $72500

C) Calculate the total amount of Marc and Michelle's deductions from AGI

Standard deduction = $12600

itemized deduction = $6000

personal and dependency allowance = $12150

To calculate the Deductions from AGI we have to add the personal and dependency allowance to the standard deduction ( higher value between standard deduction and itemized deduction )

= 12600 + 12150 = $24750

D ) calculate Marc and Michelle's taxable income

Adjusted gross income = $72500

deduction from itemized deduction = $24750

taxable income = 72500 - 24750 = $47750

E) Determine if Marc and Michelle's taxes payable or refund due for the year

Tax rate schedules :

between $18451 to $79000 : tax rate = $1845 + 15% of income over $18450

Taxable income = $47750

Tax liability = 1845 + (47750 - 18450) * 15% = $6240

child tax credit = $1000

prepayment of taxes = $5500

Tax refund = tax liability - child tax - prepayment of taxes

6240 - 1000 - 5500 = $260

hence there will be a tax return of $260

Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must grow at the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2019, current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals. The after-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 4%, and the forecasted payout ratio is 45%. Use the AFN equation to forecast Broussard's additional funds needed for the coming year. Enter your answer in dollars. For example, an answer of $1.2 million should be entered as $1,200,000.
Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer: $‭412,600‬

Explanation:

AFN = Increase in assets - Increase in Liabilities - Addition to Retained Earnings

Increase in Assets

= 5,000,000 *  15%

= $750,000

Increase in Liabilities

For liabilities use only the Accounts payable and Accruals.

= (450,000 + 450,000) * 15%

= $135,000

Additional to Retained Earnings

= After tax Profit * ( 1 - Payout ratio)

= (9,200,000 * 4%) * ( 1 - 45%)

= $202,400‬

= 750,000 - 135,000 - 202,400

= $‭412,600‬

Answers

Answer:

A. $36.28

B. $8.48

Explanation:

a. Calculation for the amount of OASDI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay

OASDI taxes is 6.2%

Hence,

OASDI taxes to withhold = 585.15*0.62

OASDI taxes to withhold = $36.28

Therefore the OASDI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay is $36.28

b. Calculation for the amount of HI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay

HI taxes is 1.45%

Hence,

HI taxes to withhold =585.15*0.0145

HI taxes to withhold=$8.48

Therefore HI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay is $8.48

Answer:

(A) An optimization problem

(B) Variable

(C) $14,700

Explanation:

HOUSTON, PHOENIX, MEMPHIS ----- DALLAS, ATLANTA, DENVER

    |                     |                  |                        |               |                 |

  850               650            300                 800         600           200

Shipping Cost per Room Air Conditioner:

HOUSTON to Dallas - $8   [800 × 8 = $6400]

                   to Atlanta - $12   [50 × 12 = $600]

                   to Denver - $10  

Total shipping cost = $7,000

PHOENIX to Dallas - $10  

                 to Atlanta - $14  [250 × 14 = $3500]

                 to Denver - $9  [200 × 9 = $1800]

Total shipping cost = $5,300

MEMPHIS to Dallas - $11

                 to Atlanta - $8  [300 × 8 = $2400]

                 to Denver - $12

Total shipping cost = $2,400

The total cost of the optimal solution is:

7,000 + 5,300 + 2,400 = $14,700

How was this optimal cost gotten?

- Check the least shipping cost to Dallas, this is found in Houston and that's 8 dollars. Houston hence supplies Dallas 800 ACs and has 50 left. Remember this, in case you need more ACs.

- Check the least shipping cost to Atlanta, this is found in Memphis and that's 8 dollars. An obstruction here is that Memphis only has 300 ACs to send to Atlanta, so Atlanta needs 300 more. Keep this in mind.

- Check the least shipping cost to Denver, this is found in Phoenix and that's 9 dollars. Phoenix hence supplies Denver its needed 200 ACs and has 450 left.

- There is need to complete shipping to Atlanta and the next affordable shipping cost to Atlanta is found in Houston and that's $12. Houston should send its remaining 50 ACs to Atlanta.

- Atlanta needs 250 more ACs and Phoenix has 450 extra. Allen Air Conditioning Company can now settle for the relatively high shipping cost of Phoenix to Atlanta, to supply the remaining 250 ACs which Atlanta needs.

Income recorded in 2020:

= $40,000 × 6/12

= $40,000 × 1/2

= $20,000

Length of contract: 24 months

Income recorded in 2019:

= $80,000 × 6/24

= $80,000 × 1/4

= $20,000

Income recorded in 2020:

= $80,000 × 18/24

= $80,000 × 3/4

Last month Empire Company had a $35,280 profit on sales of $287,000. Fixed costs are $68,040 a month. By how much would sales be able to decrease for Empire to still break even

Answers

Answer:

sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even

Explanation:

gross profit = net income + fixed costs = $35,280 + $68,040 = $103,320

COGS = total sales - gross profit = $287,000 - $103,320 = $183,680

contribution margin ratio = $103,320 / $287,000 = 36%

break even point in $ = $68,040 / 36% = $189,000

sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even

Eduardo has been reading about the use of drone technology in recent military conflicts and is not quite sure what to think. On the one hand, the use of drones means that military missions can be executed without putting American lives at risk. On the other hand, this very fact means that our political leaders might be quicker to resort to military solutions when other solutions might be available. Eduardo is also concerned about other effects of fully mechanized battle operations. For instance, unlike a human soldier, a drone can neither hear nor sympathize with a mother pleading for the life of her innocent child. Eduardo has decided to research the topic of military drones in more detail and write an essay in which he decides whether the use of drone technology is a positive or negative development in the history of American military action. Which type of argument will Eduardo be making?

a. Argument of fact
b. Argument of definition
c. Argument of evaluation
d. Policy argument

Answers

Answer:

c. Argument of evaluation

Explanation:

Eduardo will be making a decision on "whether the use of drone technology is a positive or negative development in the history of American military action."  This is a judgement call.  And he will be determining whether or not drone usage is good or bad.  So this is purely an argument of evaluation.  The argument is not of fact or definition or a policy argument, but one in which he will establish his opinion on the issue of the use of drone technology in the military.

1C. Using the weighted-average method, assign costs to the forming department’s output—specifically, its units transferred to painting and its ending work in process inventory.

Answers

Answer:

beginning WIP 36,000

$58,000 of direct materials costs

$24,100 of conversion costs

units started 520,000

units finished 516,000

materials added during the month $1,942,930

conversion added during the month $1,359,730

ending WIP 40,000

materials 85% complete, EU = 34,000

conversion 35%, EU = 14,000

total equivalent units

materials = 516,000 + 34,000 = 550,000

conversion = 516,000 + 14,000 = 530,000

cost per equivalent unit

materials = ($58,000 + $1,942,930) / 550,000 = $3.63805

conversion = ($24,100 + $1,359,730) / 530,000 = $2.611

total = $6.24905

costs assigned to

units transferred out = $6.24905 x 516,000 = $3,224,511

ending WIP = (34,000 x $3.63805) + (14,000 x $2.611) = $160,249

What cycle time (in minutes) would match capacity and demand if demand is 100 units per day, there are two 8 hour shifts with 3 worker(s) each, and each worker gets two 18 minute breaks and one 40 lunch.

Answers

Answer:

24.24 minutes

Explanation:

The computation of the cycle time is shown below:

As we know that

Cycle time is

= Time ÷ quantity demanded

where,

Time is

= Total time - break time

= (no of workers × no of shifts × hours per shift) - (no of workers × no of shifts × 2 × short shifts + lunch break)

= (3 × 2 × 8 × 60 minutes) - (3 ×2 × (2 × 18) + 40)

= 2,880  - 456

= 2,424 minutes

And, the demand is 100

Now the cycle time is

= 2,424 ÷ 100

= 24.24 minutes

TeleGlobal is an American firm producing TV sets. TeleGlobal imports TV set components from Taiwan and assemb them domestically. Suppose that in the United States, a TV set sells for $500 and that 80% of the TV set's value comes from the value of the imported components. The United States imposes a 30% tariff on TV sets and a 10% tariff on the TV set's components. Assume that costs of producing components are the same in the United States a Taiwan. Based on the information provided, the effective rate of protection that TeleGlobal receives from the tariff is:__________.
a. -17.5%
b. 70.0%
c. 110.0%
d. 24.4%
e. 47.5%

Answers

Answer:

The right choice is Option c (110.0%).

Explanation:

⇒ [tex]Effective \ rate \ of \ protection = tariff \ rate \ on \ imported \ finished \ good + price \ of \ Component\times \frac{(tariff \ on \ imported \ good- tariff \ on \ imported \ component)}{(Price \ of \ finished \ good - Price \ of \ components)}[/tex]

On estimating the values, we get

⇒                                   = [tex]30 \ percent + (80 \ percent\times 500)\times \frac{(30 \ percent - 10 \ percent)}{500-80 \ percent\times 500}[/tex]

a) 9.60
b) 12.00
c) 15.00
d) 34.17

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $34.17 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct labor hours are estimated at 100,000 for the year.

Ordering and Receiving $120,000

Machine Setup $297,000

Machining  $1,500,000

Assembly $1,200,000

Inspection $300,000

Total estimated overhead= $3,417,000

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

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 3,417,000/100,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $34.17 per direct labor hour

Consider an economy that produces only chocolate bars. In year 1, the quantity produced is 3 bars and the price is $2. In year 2, the quantity produced is 5 bars and the price is $4. In year 3, the quantity produced is 7 bars and the price is $6.

Required:
Using year 1 as the base year, compute nominal GDP, real GDP, and the GDP deflator for each year.

Answers

Answer:

Nominal GDP in year 1 = $6

Nominal GDP in year 2 = $20

Nominal GDP in year 3 =  $42

Real GDP in year 1 = $6

Real GDP in year 2 = $10

Real GDP in year 3 =  $14

GDP deflator in year 1 = 100

GDP deflator in year 2 = 200

GDP deflator in year 3 = 300

Explanation:

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

Nominal GDP = quantity produced x current year price

Nominal GDP in year 1 = (3 x $2) = $6

Nominal GDP in year 2 = 5 x $4 = $20

Nominal GDP in year 3 = 7 x $6 = $42

Real GDP = quantity produced x base year price

Real GDP in year 1 = (3 x $2) = $6

Real GDP in year 2 = 5 x $2 = $10

Real GDP in year 3 = 7 x $2 = $14

GDP deflator = nominal GDP / Real GDP x 100

GDP deflator in year 1 = $6 / $6 x 100 = 100

GDP deflator in year 2 = $20 / $10 x 100= 200

GDP deflator in year 3 = $42 / 14 x 100 = 300

A company has the following aging schedule of its accounts receivable with the estimated percent uncollectible:______.

0-60 days past due $ 40,000 10 %
61-120 days past due $ 10,000 30 %
More than 120 days past due $ 5,000 60 %
Assuming the balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts is $3,000 (credit) before adjustment, which of the following would be recorded in the year-end adjusting entry?

Answers

Answer: $14,000

Explanation:

Estimated Uncollectible = (4% * 175,000) + ( 10% * 40,000) + ( 30% * 10,000) + (60% * 5,000)

= 7,000 + 4,000 + 3,000 + 3,000

= $17,000

The credit balance on the Allowance account will be used to account for some of the uncollectibles. The remaining amount will be the year-end adjusting entry;

= 17,000 - 3,000

= $14,000

Assume wholesalers desire a 10 percent margin and retailers get a 20 percent margin, both based on their respective selling prices.

Answers

Answer:

10-13 Given the cost per king-size sheet set above, and assuming the manufacturer has total fixed costs of $500,000 and estimates first year sales will be 50,000 sets, determine the price to consumers if the company desires a 40 percent margin on sales.

variable cost per unit = 28 + 12 + 10 + 3 + 16 + 14 + 5 + 8 + 15 + 30 + 15 = $156

average fixed cost per unit = $500,000 / 50,000 units = $10

total cost per unit = $166

desired profit margin = 40%, so total costs must be 60% of selling price

selling price = $166 / 60% = $276.67 ≈ $277 per unit

10-14 If the company decides to sell through retailers instead of directly to consumers online, to maintain the consumer price you calculated in the previous question, at what price must it sell the product to a wholesaler who then sells it to retailers? Assume wholesalers desire a 10 percent margin and retailers get a 20 percent margin, both based on their respective selling prices.

retailers' margin = $277 x 20% = $55.40

selling price to retailers = $277 - $55.40 = $221.60

wholesalers' margin = $221.60 x 10% = $22.16

selling price to wholesalers = $221.60 - $22.16 = $199.44 per unit

Answers

Answer:

Unit Production Cost for Materials = $1.5 per unit

Unit Production Cost for Conversion cost = $2 per unit

Explanation:

                                        Materials    Conversion

Beginning WIP                        0                0

Started and Completed      39,000      39,000

Ending WIP (19,000*30%)    19,000         5,700

Equivalent Units                   58,000      44,700

Cost Incurred                        $87,000   $89,400

Unit Production Cost for Materials = Cost / Equivalent units

Unit Production Cost for Materials = $87,000 / 58,000

Unit Production Cost for Materials = $1.5 per unit

Unit Production Cost for Conversion cost = Cost / Equivalent units

Unit Production Cost for Conversion cost = $89,400 / 44,700

Unit Production Cost for Conversion cost = $2 per unit
