Answer:
Debit Accounts receivable
Credit Service Revenue
Being entries for services rendered to customers in August
Explanation:
Under accrual accounting, revenue is recognized once it is earned which is when the goods or services have been delivered to the customers such that the risk and reward or control of the goods/services now lies with the customer.
This is different from the cash basis of accounting where revenue is only recognized when cash has been received.
In accrual accounting, When revenue is earned but cash is yet to be received,
Debit Accounts receivable
Credit Revenue account
On receipt of cash,
Debit Cash account
Credit Accounts receivable.
The Ramapo Company produces two products, Blinks and Dinks. They are manufactured in two departments, Fabrication and Assembly. Data for the products and departments are listed below. Product Number of units Labor hrs per unit Machine hours per unit Blinks 1,000 4 5 Dinks 2,000 2 8 All of the machine hours take place in the Fabrication department, which has an estimated overhead of $84,000. All of the labor hours take place in the Assembly department, which has an estimated total overhead of $72,000. The Ramapo Company uses a single overhead rate to apply all overhead costs based on labor hours. What is the Single Plantwide Factory Overhead Rate for Blinks? Group of answer choices $19.50 $37.45 $78.00 $56.00
Answer:
Single Overhead Absorption rate = $19.5 per hour
Explanation:
Overhead absorption rate = Estimate overhead /Estimated labor hours
Estimated overhead = $84,000 + $72,000= 156 000
Estimated labour hours= ( 1000×4) + (2000× 2)=8,000 hours
Overhead absorption rate = 156,000/8,000 hours =$19.5 per hour
Single Overhead Absorption rate = $19.5 per hour

The perfectly competitive firm's short-run supply curve is the Group of answer choices upward-sloping portion of its average total cost curve. horizontal portion of its marginal revenue curve. portion of its average variable cost curve that lies above the average fixed cost curve. upward-sloping portion of its marginal cost curve. portion of its marginal cost curve that lies above its average variable cost curve. Next
Answer:
Portion of its marginal cost curve that lies above its average variable cost curve.
Explanation:
This is explained to be the portion of its marginal cost curve because marginal gross benefits exceeds marginal cost, the firm can earn greater profits by increasing its output.
These profits are been maximized by choosing to supply the level of output where its marginal revenue equals its marginal cost. When this revenue is below the said marginal cost, money is lost, and consequently, it must reduce its output. Profits are however utilized when the firm chooses the level of output where its marginal revenue equals its marginal cost.
Morgana Company identifies three activities in its manufacturing process: machine setups, machining, and inspections. Estimated annual overhead cost for each activity is $150,000, $375,000, and $87,500, respectively. The cost driver for each activity and the expected annual usage are number of setups 2,500, machine hours 25,000, and number of inspections 1,750.
Compute the overhead rate for each activity.
Machine setups $ per setup
Machining $ per machine hour
Inspections $ per inspection
Answer:
Machine setup= $60 per setup
Machining= $15 per machine hour
Inspections= $50 per inspection
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated overhead costs:
Machine setup= 150,000
Machining= 375,000
Inspections= 87,500
The cost driver for each activity and the expected annual usage are number of setups 2,500, machine hours 25,000, and number of inspections 1,750.
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= 150,000/2,500= $60 per setup
Machining= 375,000/25,000= $15 per machine hour
Inspections= 87,500/1,750= $50 per inspection
In January 2017, Crane Company, a newly formed company, issued 9500 shares of its $8 par common stock for $13 per share. On July 1, 2017, Crane Company reacquired 950 shares of its outstanding stock for $10 per share. The acquisition of these treasury sharesa. increased total stockholders' equity.b. decreased the number of issued shares.c. decreased total stockholders' equity.d. did not change total stockholders' equity.
Answer:
The correct option is C, decreased total stockholders' equity
Explanation:
By reacquiring 950 shares out of the issued shares of 9,500 shares ,the company takes possession of the 950 shares and give cash to stockholders in return for the shares repossessed.
As a result the total stockholders' equity would reduce, this is usually accounted for by deducting the cost of such repurchase from total stockholders' equity in the equity section of the balance sheet

A. Calculate the time-weighted geometric average return on this "portfolio."
B. Calculate the time-weighted arithmetic average return on this portfolio.
C. Calculate the dollar-weighted average return on this portfolio.
Answer:
a. The Geometric average return is 1.72%
b. The Arithmetic average return is 1.75%
c. The Dollar weighted average return is 2.61%
Explanation:
a) In order to calculate the time-weighted geometric average return we would have to calculate first the Holding period return as follows:
Holding period return = (200 - 190) / 190 = 5.263%
Hence, Geometric average return = (1 + .05263)^(1/3) - 1 = 1.72%
b) To calculate time-weighted arithmetic average return we have to make the following calculation:
Arithmetic average return = 5.263% / 3 = 1.75%
c) To calculate time-weighted arithmetic average return we would have to make the following calculation:
Dollar weighted average return=-190*3 + 200/(1+r) + 200/(1+r)^2 + 200 / (1+r)^3 = 0
= 2.61%

On February 18, 2021, Union Corporation purchased 600 IBM bonds as a long-term investment at their face value for a total of $600,000. Union will hold the bonds indefinitely, and may sell them if their price increases sufficiently. On December 31, 2021, and December 31, 2022, the market value of the bonds was $580,000 and $610,000, respectively.Required:2. & 3. Prepare the adjusting entry for December 31, 2021 and 2022. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
Dr unrealized holding gains and losses—OCI $20,000
Cr investment in bonds fair value adjustment $20,000
Dr investment in bonds fair value adjustment $30,000
Cr unrealized holding gains and losses—OCI $30,000
Explanation:
On 31st December 2021 the adjustment required is the difference between the cost of bond investment of $600,000 and the market value of the bonds which was $580,000, in a nutshell a unrealized loss of $20,000 is recorded.
The excess of fair value of market value of $610,000 over the previous year market value would be debited to fair value adjustment while it is also credited to unrealized holding gains and losses-OCI
g Depreciation refers to which one of the following? The amount of money that is lost over a period when services are underutilized. An estimate of how much of a tangible asset has been used during an accounting period: considered an expense that requires the use of cash deducted from the operations revenue. The amount of money still owed on a tangible asset, minus the amount of expenses spent to facilitate the utilization of the asset (utilities, personnel, enabling assets, etc.). An estimate of how much of a tangible asset has been used during an accounting period: considered an expense that does not require any cash outflow under the accrual basis accounting.
Answer:
The answer is D
Explanation:
Depreciation is best described as An estimate of how much of a tangible asset has been used during an accounting period: considered an expense that does not require any cash outflow under the accrual basis accounting.
Depreciation reduces the value of an asset and it reduces it over the life span of an asset. Depreciation is a non cash reduction. Depreciation tells us how much the value of an asset has reduced.
The formula is (cost of the asset - any residual value) ÷ the number of useful life span

Consider the following payoff matrix facing Harry and Sally when each chooses to go to the coffee shop listed. Both Harry and Sally would like to meet each other but are shy about asking the other out on a date. Harry Starbucks Dunkin Donuts Sally Starbucks H:1,S:1 H:0,S:0 Dunkin Donuts H:0,S:0 H:1,S:1 What is Harry's best strategy?
Answer:
Harry has no best strategy
Explanation:
Game theory looks at the interactions between participants in a competitive game and calculates the best choice for the player.
Dominant strategy is the best option for a player regardless of what the other player is playing.
Nash equilibrium is the best outcome for a player where no player has an incentive to change their decisions.
If Harry and Sally goes to Dunkin Donuts, they both have a payoff of 1. If they go to different restaurants they have a payoff of zero. If they both go to Starbucks, they have a payoff of 1. Harry doesn't have a clear best strategy. So , he doesn't have a best strategy.

A country produces melons and wheat. 1.) Using the 3-point curved line drawing tool, draw a representative PPC for this country. Label it 'PPC'. 2.) Using the point drawing tool, show a production point that is efficient. Label it 'A'. 3.) Using the point drawing tool, show a production point that is attainable but not efficient. Label it 'BE'. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects.
Answer:
1.) Using the 3-point curved line drawing tool, draw a representative PPC for this country. Label it 'PPC'.
I have attached a picture below. It shows a simple possibilities frontier for a country that can produce up to 16 units of melons and wheat.
2.) Using the point drawing tool, show a production point that is efficient. Label it 'A'
Producition points that are efficient are any points on the curve. Producing 16 melons and 0 wheat is efficient because all economic resources are being used to produce the maximum amount of a good that is possible. Producing 8 melons, and 8 units of wheat is also efficient for the same reason.
3.) Using the point drawing tool, show a production point that is attainable but not efficient.
Any point inside the curve would be inefficient because resouces would be used to produce less than the maximum amount possible. For example, if 15 units of wheat are produced, but less than one unit of melon is produced, then, there is inefficiency, because 1 unit of melon should be produced in that case.

Sean is a baseball player who earns $890,000 per year playing for team X. If he weren't playing baseball for team X, he would be playing baseball for team Y and earning $660,000 per year. If he weren't playing baseball at all, he would be working as an accountant earning $90,000 per year. What is his economic rent as a baseball player?
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
Economic rent is a payment to a factor of production that is in excess of the costs which are needed to bring the factor into production. It is the payment in excess of the opportunity cost.
Economic rent = Present opportunity - opportunity cost.
Sean is a baseball player who earns $890,000 per year playing for team X. If he weren't playing baseball for team X, he would be playing baseball for team Y and earning $660,000 per year. His economic rent in this case will be:
Economic rent = Present opportunity - opportunity cost.
= $890,000 - $660,000
= $230,000
If he weren't playing baseball at all, he would be working as an accountant earning $90,000 per year. His economic rent in this case will be:
Economic rent = Present opportunity - opportunity cost.
= $890,000 - $90,000
= $800,000

Copper Corporation, a calendar year C corporation, owns stock in Bronze Corporation and has net operating income of $900,000 for the current year. Bronze Corporation pays Copper a dividend of $150,000. What amount of dividends received deduction may Copper claim if it owns 85% of Bronze stock (and the two corporations are members of the same affiliated group)? (Assume Copper's dividends received deduction is not limited by its taxable income.)
Answer:
$150,000
Explanation:
Copper Corporation
The amount of dividends received deduction will tend to depends upon the ownership percentage by the corporate shareholder.
Therefore in a situation where Copper Corporation is said to owns only 85% of what Bronze Corporation had, Copper Corporation definitely qualify for a percentage of 100 deduction or a total amount of $150,000.if we have to based on the above information given because Bronze Corporation pays Copper Corporation a dividend of $150,000.

Victory Company uses weighted-average process costing to account for its production costs.
Conversion costs are added evenly throughout the process.
Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process.
During November, the company transferred 800,000 units of product to finished goods.
At the end of November, the work in process inventory consists of 187,000 units that are 60% complete with respect to conversion.
Beginning inventory had $192,465 of direct materials and $159,635 of conversion cost.
The direct material cost added in November is $1,288,035 and the conversion cost added is $3,033,065.
Beginning work in process consisted of 74,000 units that were 100% complete with respect to direct materials and 80% complete with respect to conversion.
Of the units completed, 74,000 were from beginning work in process and 726,000 units were started and completed during the period.
Required:1. Determine the equivalent units of production with respect to direct labor and direct materials.2. Compute both the direct labor cost and the direct materials cost per equivalent unit. (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places.)3. Compute both direct labor cost and direct materials cost assigned to units completed and transferred out and ending goods in process inventory. (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
1. Direct Materials = 987,000 units , Direct Labor = 912,200 units
2.Direct Materials = $1.50 , Direct Labor = $3.50
3.
Units Completed and Transferred Costs
Direct Materials = $ 1,200,000
Direct Labor = $ 2,800,000
Ending goods in process inventory cost
Direct Materials = $ 280,500
Direct Labor = $ 392,700
Explanation:
First step is to determine the equivalent units of production with respect to direct labor and direct materials
Direct Materials
Note : Materials are added at beginning of the process hence, they are 100 % complete for both units categories
Units Completed and Transferred (800,000 × 100%) = 800,000
Units of Ending Work In Process (187,000 × 100%) = 187,000
Equivalent units of production = 987,000
Direct Labor
Note : Conversion costs are added evenly throughout the process, hence we need to establish units to the extent of work done.
Units Completed and Transferred (800,000 × 100%) = 800,000
Units of Ending Work In Process (187,000 × 60%) = 112,200
Equivalent units of production = 912,200
The next step is to Calculate the Total Cost of Production with respect to direct labor and direct materials incurred during the period.
Direct Materials
Cost in Opening Work In Process = $192,465
Cost added during the period = $1,288,035
Total Costs = $1,480,500
Conversion
Cost in Opening Work In Process = $159,635
Cost added during the period = $3,033,065
Total Costs = $3,192,700
Then use the above data to calculate the cost per equivalent unit for direct labor and direct materials.
Cost per equivalent unit. = Total Cost / Total Equivalent units
Direct Materials = $1,480,500 / 987,000 = $1.50
Direct Labor = $3,192,700 / 912,200 = $3.50
CONCLUSION :
Units Completed and Transferred Costs
Direct Materials = (800,000 × $1.50) = $ 1,200,000
Direct Labor = (800,000 × $3.50) = $ 2,800,000
Ending goods in process inventory cost
Direct Materials = (187,000 × $1.50) = $ 280,500
Direct Labor = (112,200 × $3.50) = $ 392,700
Geoffrey, Suzanne, Jay, and Emma are college roommates. They're trying to decide where the four of them should go for spring break: Las Vegas or Vail. If they order the tickets by 10:00 PM on February 1, the cost will be just $500 per person. If they miss that deadline, the cost rises to $1,200 per person.
The following table shows the benefit (in dollar terms) that each roommate would get from the two trips.
Roommate Benefit from Las Vegas Benefit from Vail
Geoffrey $600 $1,300
Suzanne $850 $850
Jay $900 $700
Emma $1,100 $650
The roommates tend to put off making decisions. So, when February 1 rolls around and they still haven't made a decision, they schedule a vote for 9:00 PM that night. In case of a tie, they will flip a coin between the two vacation destinations.
The roommates will get the most total benefit if they choose to go to .
Given the individual benefits each roommate receives from the two trips, which trip will each roommate vote for? Fill in the table with each roommate's preferred location, assuming that a given roommate will abstain if he or she has no preference.
Roommate Vote
Emma
Jay
Suzanne
Geoffrey
Under majority rule, the roommates will vote to go to . Therefore, majority rule leads to an economically outcome.
Suppose Emma misses the vote, leaving Geoffrey, Suzanne, and Jay to figure out where they're going to go.
Geoffrey and Jay argue for their preferred destinations, but Suzanne offers to vote with Geoffrey if Geoffrey will vote on her side in an upcoming class election. This is an example of:________.
Answer: Please refer to explanation
Explanation:
1. The roommates will get the most total benefit if they choose to go to ________.
To answer this, you add the total benefit they could all get from going to either Las Vegas or Vail.
Las Vegas
= 600 + 850+ 900 + 1,100
= $3,450
Vail
= 1,300 + 850+ 700 + 650
= $3,500
The room mates in total will get a higher benefit if they choose to go to Vail.
2. Which location will each pick based on their benefits.
Emma gets a higher benefit if they go to Las Vegas so they will pick that.
Jay gets a higher benefit if they go to Las Vegas as well so they will pick that.
Suzanne will abstain as both places give them the same benefit.
Geoffrey gets a higher benefit if they go to Vail so they will pick that.
3. Under majority rule, the roommates will vote to go to ________ .
They will vote to go to Las Vegas because Emma and Jay will vote for it, Suzanne will abstain and Geoffrey will vote for Vail meaning 2 votes out of 3 for Las Vegas.
4. Therefore, majority rule leads to an economically _______ outcome.
Inefficient outcome because in total they will get a smaller benefit going to Las Vegas as opposed to Vail.5. This is an example of:________.
Logrolling
Logrolling is a practice by which people promise to mutually support each other at different times. Simply speaking, one will support the other in exchange for the other supporting the one at some later period in time. This is the deal that Suzanne offer Geoffrey.
Wings Co. budgeted $572,000 manufacturing direct wages, 2,500 direct labor hours, and had the following manufacturing overhead: Overhead Cost Pool Budgeted Overhead Cost Budgeted Level for Cost Driver Overhead Cost Driver Materials handling $ 196,000 4,900 pounds Weight of materials Machine setup 19,600 560 setups Number of setups Machine repair 1,600 32,000 machine hours Machine hours Inspections 16,500 330 inspections Number of inspections Requirements for Job #971 which manufactured 4 units of product: Direct labor 20 hours Direct materials 220 pounds Machine setup 30 setups Machine hours 16,700 machine hours Inspections 15 inspections The total overhead of Job #971 under the ABC costing is:
Answer:
Total allocated overhead= $11,435
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Materials handling $196,000 4,900 pounds
Machine setup $19,600 560 setups
Machine repair $1,600 32,000 machine hours
Inspections $16,500 330 inspections
Job 971
Direct labor 20 hours
Direct materials 220 pounds
Machine setup 30 setups
Machine hours 16,700 machine hours
Inspections 15 inspections
First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate for each activity:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Materials handling= 196,000/4,900= $40 per pound
Machine setup= 19,600/560= $35 per setup
Machine repair= 1,600/32,000= $0.05 per machine hour
Inspections= 16,500/330= $50 per inspection
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Materials handling= 40*220= 8,800
Machine setup= 35*30= 1,050
Machine repair= 0.05*16,700=835
Inspections= 50*15= 750
Total allocated overhead= $11,435
Digital Corp is considering investing in project A. Their accountants gave them the following information: Initial investment: $1,200,000 Salvage Value: $340,000 Contribution Margin: $320,000 Present Value of Cash Flows: 4,580,000 Annual Cash Inflow: $850,000 Cost of Capital: 9% Length of project: 5 years What is the payback period
Answer:
The payback period for the investment is 1.41 years
Explanation:
The payback period is the length of time it takes an investment to repay back the investment capital outlay committed to it at the inception of the project.
The payback period is computed as the initial investment divided by annual cash inflow
Initial investment is $1,200,000
Annual cash inflow is $850,000
Payback period=$1,200,000/$850,000= 1.41 years

ANSWER: The data collected is NOT an appropriate representation that can be used to determine how much you should sell your house.
EXPLANATION: A house is evaluated by the contents which were used to build it. For instance a house built with a bricks can not be of the same value with a wood or block house, even though they have the same pattern.
Because the data does not show the values of the contents of the house, which are: walls, pattern, designs, how many stirs, roof, and interior quality, it cannot be used to determine the price you should sell your house.
Also, looking at the data gotten, you can understand that this houses has been sold according to the contents that made up the building, because some old builder were sold more costlier than some new buildings, and some building with a much bigger square feet were sold in a lower price when compared to some buildings with a smaller square feet
Playful Pens, Inc., makes a single model of a pen. The cartridge for the pen (which contains the ink) is manufactured on one machine. The cartridge holder (which you hold when you use the pen)is manufactured on another machine. Monthly capacities and production levels are as follows:
Machine 1 (Cartridge) Machine 2 (Holders)
Monthly capacity 1,000,000 800,000
Monthly production 800,000 800,000
The company could sell 1,000,000 pens per month. The units (cartridge inside of holder) sell for $10.40 each and have a variable cost of $4.10 each. Fixed costs are $4,200,000 per month.
Required:
a. Is there a bottleneck at Playful Pens on Machine 1 or Machine 2?
A. Machine 1
B. Machine 2
b. Playful Pens's production supervisors state they could increase machine 2's capacity by 200,000 per month by producing holders on the weekend. Producing on the weekend would not affect the sales price. Variable cost per unit would increase by $1.10 for those produced on the weekend because of the premium paid to labor. Fixed costs would also increase by $820,000 per month.
b-1. Calculate the differential operating profit (loss). (Losses and amounts to be deducted should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Differential Revenues
Differntial costs:
Variable
Fixed
b-2. Should Playful Pens produce holders on the weekend?
Yes
No
c. Independent of the situation in requirement (b), Playful Pens could expand the capability of machine 2 by adding additional workers to perform ongoing maintenance. This would increase its capacity by 100,000 holders per month. This would not affect sales price or fixed costs, but would increase variable cost to $4.62 per unit for all units produced.
c-1. Calculate the differential operating profit (loss). (Losses and amounts to be deducted should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Differential revenues
Differential costs:
Variable cost increase on current production:
Variable cost on new production:
c-2. Should Playful Pens expand Machine 2's capability by adding these additional workers?
Yes
No
Answer:
a) B. Machine 2
b) $220,000
b-2) Yes , positive differential profit.
c-1) $162,000
c-2) Yes , positive differential profit.
Explanation:
B) Differential revenues = $10.40 x 200,000 = $2,080,000
Differential costs:
Variable cost on new production = $5.20 x 200,000 = $1,040,000
Fixed costs = $820,000
differential profit = $2,080,000 - $1,040,000 - $820,000 = $220,000
c) Differential revenues = $10.40 x 100,000 = $1,040,000
Differential costs:
Variable cost increase on current production = ($4.62 - $4.10) x 800,000 = $416,000
Variable cost on new production = $4.62 x 100,000 = $462,000
differential profit = $1,040,000 - $878,000 = $162,000
Elaborate on two instances at the workplace where "silence is golden " may be applicable.
Answer:
It could be applicable when there is a negative compliment: When this happens it is best and advisable to be silent about it and continue with the work activities. Negative compliments are usually hurtful to the recipients and tempers may flare up if words are exchanged.
It could also be applicable when important informations are passed during meetings: Some meetings at work requires dissemination of information with various steps in accomplishing them. If an individual isn’t silent and pays less attention, a step may be missed and will make the worker being unable to perform the task.
