Compute the total, price, and quantity variances for (1) materials and (2) labor. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
1. The total, price, and quantity variances for materials will be:
Actual Production = 11250
Standard Quantity of Direct Material Required per unit = 8
Standard Quantity of Direct Material required (SQ) = 11250*l × 8 = 90000
Standard Price per Yard (SP) = 4.4
Actual Direct Material (AQ) = 90500
Actual Price per Pound (AP) = 4.15
Total Material Variance:
= (SP × SQ) - (AP × AQ)
= (4.40 × 90000) - (4.15 × 90500)
= 396000 - 375575
= 20425
Direct Material Price Variance:
= AQ × (SP - AP)
= 90500 × (4.40 - 4.15)
= 90500 × 0.25
= 22625 Favourable
Direct materials quantity variance:
= SP × (SQ - AQ)
= 4.40 × (90000 - 90500)
= 4.40 × -500
= -2200 Unfavourable
2. The total, price, and quantity variances for labor will be:
Actual Production = 11250
Standard Hours Required per unit = 1.2
Standard Hours required (SH) = 11250 × 1.20 = 13500
Standard Rate per Hour (SR) = 13.4
Actual Hours required (AH) = 14250
Actual Rate per Hour (AR) = 14.1
Total Labour Variance:
= (SR × SH) - (AR × AH)
= (13.40 × 13500) - (14.10 × 14250)
= 180900 - 200925
= -20025 Unfavourable
Dircet Labour RateVariance:
= AH × (SR - AR)
= 14250 × (13.40 - 14.10)
= 14250 × -0.7
= -9975 Unfavourable
Direct Labour efficiency variance:
= SR × (SH - AH)
= 13.40 × (13500 - 14250)
= 13.40 × -750
= -10050 Unfavourable
The Upstart Company has the following production function.
Number of Workers Number of Cases Produced

If the company hires 4 workers, which of the following could be the real wage rate?
a. 2
b. 4
c. 6
d. 8
Answer:
b. 4
Explanation:
The computation of the real wage rate is as follows:
Number of workers Number of cases produced Marginal product
0 0 -
1 10 10
2 19 9
3 26 7
4 31 5
5 34 3
At optimal MP = real wage rate.
So,
For 4th worker , MP is 5
And for 5th worker ,MP is 3
So in the case when we hire 4 workers so the real wage rate should lies in between of 3 and 4
Therefore the real wage rate is 4
Fill in the missing numbers for the following income statement. (Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations.) a.Calculate the OCF. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) b.What is the depreciation tax shield
Full question:
Fill in the missing numbers for the following income statement. (Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Sales $ 687,900
Costs $442,800
Depreciation $115,400
EBIT $
Taxes (30%)
Net income $
OCF
What is the depreciation tax shield?
Answer:
Operating Cash Flow(OCF)= $206190
Depreciation tax shield = $34620
Explanation:
To calculate Depreciation tax shield:
Depreciation×tax rate= $115400×0.30=$34620
Operating Cash flow(OCF)= Earnings before interest and taxes(EBIT)+depreciation - income tax expense
So we calculate EBIT and Income tax expense
EBIT= Sales - cost of good sold - depreciation expense
= $ 687,900-$442,800-$115,400= $129,700
Income tax expense= (Sales - cost of goods sold - depreciation expense) × tax rate
=($687900-$442800-$115400)×0.30
=$38910
Therefore, Operating Cash flow(OCF)= $129,700+$$115,400-$38910= $206190
A small firm intends to increase the capacity of a bottleneck operation by adding a new machine. Two alternatives, A and B, have been identified, and the associated costs and revenues have been estimated. Annual fixed costs would be $36,000 for A and $31,000 for B; variable costs per unit would be $7 for A and $11 for B; and revenue per unit would be $18.
Requied:
a. Determine each alternativeâs break-even point in units.
b. At what volume of output would the two alternatives yield the same profit?
c. If expected annual demand is 10,000 units, which alternative would yield the higher profit?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Alternative A:
Fixed costs= $36,000
Unitary variable cost= $7
Selling price= $18
Alternative B:
Fixed costs= $31,000
Unitary variable cost= $11
Selling price= $18
First, we need to calculate the break-even point in units for each alternative:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Alternative A= 36,000 / (18 - 7)= 3,273
Alternative B= 31,000 / (18 - 11)= 4,429
Now, we equal the indifference point:
36,000 + 7x = 31,000 + 11x
x= number of units
5,000 = 4x
1,250 = x
The indifference point is 1,250 units.
Finally, 10,000 units are sold:
Alternative A:
Net income= 10,000*(18 - 7) - 36,000
Net income= $74,000
Alternative B:
Net income= 10,000*(18 - 11) - 31,000
Net income= $39,000
15. Assume that Bullen issued 12,000 shares of common stock, with a $5 par value and a $47 fair value, to obtain all of Vicker's outstanding stock. In this acquisition transaction, how much goodwill should be recognized
Answer:
$104,000
Explanation:
Note: The full question is attached as picture below
Fair value of net assets = Cash and receivables + Inventory + Land + Buildings (net) + Equipment (net) - Liabilities
Fair value of net assets = $70,000 + 210,000 + 240,000 + 270,000 + 90,000 - 420,000
Fair value of net assets = $460,000
Purchase consideration paid = 12,000*$47
Purchase consideration paid = $564,000
Goodwill recognized = Purchase consideration - Fair value of net assets
Goodwill recognized = $564,000 - $460,000
Goodwill recognized = $104,000

The process for converting present values into future values is called________________.
Answer:
Compounding.
Explanation:
Compounding is typically an accounting process used for the conversion of present values of an asset, investment or money into future values.
Generally, a compound interest is calculated based on the interest rate on a loan, principal and the accumulated interest gained from previous periods. This interests is compounded for a certain number of times such as daily, weekly, quarterly or annually.
Mathematically, to find the future value from the present value of an asset or investment, we would use the compound interest formula;
[tex] A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]
Where;
A is the future value. P is the principal or starting amount. r is annual interest rate. n is the number of times the interest is compounded in a year. t is the number of years for the compound interest.The discount rate is the interest rate banks charge their best customers. the interest rate banks charge each other for overnight loans. the interest rate the U.S. Treasury pays on Treasury Bills. the interest rate the Fed charges to banks for loans from the Fed.

Crossfade Corp. has a bond with a par value of $2,000 that sells for $1,956.84. The bond has a coupon rate of 6.84 percent and matures in 24 years. If the bond makes semiannual coupon payments, what is the YTM of the bond
Answer:
Semestral rate= 3.51%
Annual rate= 7.02%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Par value= $2,000
Present value= $1,956.84
Coupon= (0.0684/2)*2,000= $68.4
Number of periods= 24*2= 48 semesters
To calculate the YTM, we need to use a financial calculator:
Function= CMPD
n= 48
I%= SOLVE = 3.51%
PV= 1,956.84
PMT= -68.4
FV= -2,000
Semestral rate= 3.51%
Annual rate= 3.51*2= 7.02%
Huprey Co. is the defendant in the following legal claims. For each of the following claims, indicate whether Huprey should (a) record a liability, (b) disclose in notes, or (c) have no disclosure.
Answer:
Record a liability.Disclose in notes.Have no disclosure.Explanation:
A contingent liability should only be recorded if the likelihood of it happening is known and the value can reasonably be estimated.
In the first scenario, it is likely that Huprey will lose so the likelihood is known. The value can also be reasonably estimated to be $1,070,000 so this should be recorded as a liability.
In the second scenario, the likelihood is known but the value cannot be estimated. In such a case, simply disclose this possibility in the notes of the financial statement.
For the third scenario, the possibility of the liability being incurred is remote so there is no need to either record or disclose the liability.
Suppose two factors are identified for the U.S. economy: the growth rate of industrial production, IP, and the inflation rate, IR. IP is expected to be 4% and IR 6%. A stock with a beta of 1 on IP and 0.4 on IR currently is expected to provide a rate of return of 14%. If industrial production actually grows by 5%, while the inflation rate turns out to be 7%, what is your best guess for the rate of return on the stock? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
Answer:
15.4%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine your best guess for the rate of return on the stock
The revised estimate on the rate of return on
the stock would be:
Before
14% = α +[4%*1] + [6%*0.4]
α = 14% - 6.4%
α = 7.6%
With the changes:
7.6% + [5%*1] + [7%*0.4]
= 7.6% + 5% + 2.8%
= 15.4%
Therefore your best guess for the rate of return on the stock will be 15.4%

It has a strong ability to identify, and respond to demand and trends in the short possible timeZara has also invested in technology systems that allow information to travel all across its entire chain very quicklyAlso, as part of its brand communications strategy, it invests more into creating more stores than it does on sales and advertisements.3. Zara protects its value by placing priority on people
4. Innovation: whilst Zara's core business has flourished, it was a bit of a latecomer to th mobile commerce business.

Sandra is purchasing a home with a first mortgage loan for $548,250, which is the conforming loan limit for the area where she lives at the time that she secures approval. Her interest rate is not a prime rate, and in order to determine if it triggers the threshold for higher-priced mortgage loans, her creditor must determine if the APR for the loan exceeds the average prime offer rate by:
Question Completion with Options:
2.5 percentage points
1.5 percentage points
3.5 percentage points
