Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the fixed and variable cost under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (195,510 - 135,060) / (4,100 - 2,600)
Variable cost per unit= $40.3
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 195,510 - (40.3*4,100)
Fixed costs= $30,280
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 135,060 - (40.3*2,600)
Fixed costs= $30,280
Now, the total cost for 3,500 tests:
Total cost= 30,280 + 40.3*3,500
Total cost= $171,330
Donald owns a two-family home. He rents out the first floor and resides on the second floor. The following expenses attributable to the total building were incurred by Donald for the year ended December 31, 2016. Real estate taxes $1,800 Mortgage interest $1,200 Utilities $1,000 Repairs (first floor) $ 300 Painting (second floor) $ 400 In addition, the depreciation attributable to the entire building would be $2,000. What is the total amount of the expenses that Donald can deduct on Schedule E of Form 1040 (before any limitations)
Answer:
$3,300
Explanation:
Calculation for the total amount of the expenses that Donald can deduct
Total amount of expenses=Repairs (first floor) $ 300+50%*($1,800 Real estate taxes+ Mortgage interest $1,200 +Utilities $1,000+Depreciation $2,000
Total amount of expenses=Repairs (first floor) $ 300+0.5*(6,000)
Total amount of expenses=Repairs (first floor) $ 300+3,000
Total amount of expenses=$3,300
Therefore the total amount of the expenses that Donald can deduct will be $3,300

Answer:
Follows are the solution to the given point:
Explanation:
The formula for calculating the Quick Ratio:
[tex]\text{Quick Ratio} = \frac{\text{Quick Assets}}{\text{Current Liabilities}}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{43700+86150}{104300}\\\\=\frac{ 129850}{104300} \\\\= 1.24[/tex]
[tex]\text{Sales days Receivable at end of year} = (\frac{\text{Account receivables at the end}}{\text{Gross sales by loan}} ) \times \text{number of days}[/tex] [tex]= \frac{86150}{631000} \times 365 \\\\ = 49.833 \\\\ = 50\ days[/tex]
[tex]\text{Sales price ratio} = \frac{\text{Sales per share price}}{\text{ Sales Share price}}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{43.20}{\frac{63100}{82000}}\\\\ = \frac{43.20}{0.769}\\\\ = 5.61[/tex]
[tex]\text{total equity Debt} = \frac{ \text{Complete Liabilities}}{\text{Stockholders}}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{882400}{(397900+82000)}\\\\ = \frac{882400}{(479,900)}\\\\ = \frac{882400}{(479,900)}\\\\= 1.838[/tex]
[tex]\text{Equity Return} = \frac{\text{Net Sales}}{\text{Equity of Shareholder}} \times 100[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{96200}{(82000+397900)} \times 100 \\\\ = \frac{96200}{(479900)} \times 100 \\\\= 0.2004 \times 100\\\\= 200.4 \ \%[/tex]
Dividends received throughout the year = Restored earnings opening + Net Sales -Closing of restored profits
[tex]= 309000 + 96200 - 397900 \\\\= 7300[/tex]

Foote Company recorded a purchase discount of $200 on merchandise the company had purchased on account a few days ago. Foote uses the perpetual inventory system. Which of the following answers reflects the effects of this event on the financial statements? Balance Sheet Income Statement Statement of Cash Flows Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity Revenue − Expense = Net Income A. n/a (200) 200 200 n/a n/a 200 OA B. n/a (200) 200 200 n/a 200 n/a C.

Answer:
B. n/a (200) 200 200 n/a 200 n/a
Explanation:
A purchase discount is a contra-expense account which has a credit balance. Expenses have normal debit balances, so a credit balance will decrease the expenses incurred by the company.
E.g. you paid $100 within the discount period (2% discount)
Dr Accounts payable 100
Cr Cash 98
Cr Purchase discounts 2
This transaction doe snot affect assets, but it will decrease liabilities by $200 and increase R.E. by $200. Since this is a contra expense account, it will increase revenue and net income. It doesn't generate any additional cash flows.
Lonergan Company occasionally uses its accounts receivable to obtain immediate cash. At the end of June 2021, the company had accounts receivable of $1,060,000. Lonergan needs approximately $640,000 to capitalize on a unique investment opportunity. On July 1, 2021, a local bank offers Lonergan the following two alternatives:
a. Borrow $640,000, sign a note payable, and assign the entire receivable balance as collateral. At the end of each month, a remittance will be made to the bank that equals the amount of receivables collected plus 9% interest on the unpaid balance of the note at the beginning of the period.
b. Transfer $690,000 of specific receivables to the bank without recourse. The bank will charge a 2% factoring fee on the amount of receivables transferred. The bank will collect the receivables directly from customers. The sale criteria are met.

Mr. and Mrs. Lay’s taxable income is $679,000, which includes a $22,030 dividend on their investment in Rexford Mutual Fund. Mr. and Mrs. Lay’s marginal rate on ordinary income is 37 percent, and their entire Rexford dividend is subject to the Medicare contribution tax. Use Individual tax rate schedules and Tax rates for capital gains and qualified dividends. Required: Compute the Lays' total tax on this dividend if their Form 1099 from Rexford reported that the entire $22,030 was an ordinary dividend. Compute the Lays' total tax on this dividend if their Form 1099 from Rexford reported that $17,540 was an ordinary dividend and $4,490 was a capital gain distribution. Compute the Lays' total tax on this dividend if their Form 1099 from Rexford reported that $6,920 was an ordinary dividend, $10,620 was a qualified dividend distribution, and $4,490 was a capital gain distribution.
Answer:
a. Compute the Lays' total tax on this dividend if their Form 1099 from Rexford reported that the entire $22,030 was an ordinary dividend.
tax liability = $22,030 x 37% = $8,151.10
b. Compute the Lays' total tax on this dividend if their Form 1099 from Rexford reported that $17,540 was an ordinary dividend and $4,490 was a capital gain distribution.
tax liability:
$17,540 x 37% = $6,489.80
$4,490 x 20% = $898
total = $7,387.80
Capital gains tax rate is 20% if the married couple's income is $496,601 or higher.
c. Compute the Lays' total tax on this dividend if their Form 1099 from Rexford reported that $6,920 was an ordinary dividend, $10,620 was a qualified dividend distribution, and $4,490 was a capital gain distribution.
$6,920 x 37% = $2,560.40
$15,110 x 20% = $3,022
total = $5,582.40
Qualified dividends are taxed at the same rate as capital gains.

Question 2) Respectful
Explanation:
Jenny must use an objective tone in the report. Also, she must aim to be respectful of the employee while conveying negative feedback. The correct option for question 1 is c and question 2 b.
What is feedback?Feedback can be understood as that which occurs when outputs of a system are routed back as inputs as part of a chain of cause-and-effect that forms a circuit or loop. The system can then be said to feed back into itself.
There are two types of feedback, positive and negative. Positive feedback means if the signal feedback from the output is in phase with the input signal, the feedback is called positive feedback. While negative feedback means if the signal feedback is of opposite polarity or out of phase by 180° with respect to the input signal, the feedback is called negative feedback.
The terms "positive" and "negative" were first applied to feedback prior to WWII.

Answer:
SELECT *
FROM salesman;
Explanation:
SQL is a structured query language used for database management, creation and manipulation.
The above statement is an SQL statement that can be used to display the information of all salesmen in the table.
"SELECT" is often times the start of every SQL query syntax which is used to indicate the information to be displayed.
" * " is a wildcard which indicates that you want all rows present in the table to be displayed.
"FROM" usually comes before the table name. It indicates the table from which you want your data to be selected.
"salesman" is the table name
" ; " indicates the end of an SQL statement and it is also an indication that you want your query to be executed.
Therefore, the statement is interpreted as "Select all rows(every individual) from the table salesman
Richards Corporation uses the weighted-average method of process costing. The following information is available for October in its Fabricating Department: Units: Beginning Inventory: 88,000 units, 70% complete as to materials and 20% complete as to conversion. Units started and completed: 266,000. Units completed and transferred out: 354,000. Ending Inventory: 34,000 units, 40% complete as to materials and 15% complete as to conversion. Costs: Costs in beginning Work in Process - Direct Materials: $37,200. Costs in beginning Work in Process - Conversion: $79,700. Costs incurred in October - Direct Materials: $646,800. Costs incurred in October - Conversion: $919,300. Calculate the equivalent units of materials.
Answer:
$1.86072 per unit
Explanation:
Equivalent unit of material = Units completed and transferred out + Ending Inventory
Equivalent unit of material = 354,000 + (34,000*40%)
Equivalent unit of material = 354,000 + 13,600
Equivalent unit of material = 367,600
Cost per equivalent unit of material = ($37,200 + $646,800) / 367,600
Cost per equivalent unit of material = $684,000 / 367,600 units
Cost per equivalent unit of material = $1.86072 per unit

When Padgett Properties LLC was formed, Nova contributed land (value of $358,500 and basis of $89,625) and $179,250 cash, and Oscar contributed cash of $537,750. Both partners received a 50% interest in partnership profits and capital. a. How is the land recorded for § 704(b) book capital account purposes? For § 704(b) book capital account purposes, Padgett records the land at $ 358,500 . b. What is Padgett's tax basis in the land? $ 89,625 c. If Padgett sells the land several years later for $537,750, how much tax gain will Nova and Oscar report? Nova reports a $ gain and Oscar's gain is $ 89,625 .
Answer:Amount of Nova and Oscar's gain=$492,937.50
Explanation:
a)According to Land recorded for § 704(b) book capital account purposes, Land is recorded at fair market value. With this, the Padgett properties should record the land at $358,500
b)From the question, it is given that the basis of land is $89,625. Therefore, the Padgett Properties LLC's tax basis in the land is $89,625.
c)Amount of Nova and Oscar's gain.
Fair market value of Land $358,500
Basis of land $89,625
total $ 448,125
but Gain = Selling price of land - Fair value of Land x interest in partnership profits and capital
= $537,750 - ($358,500+$89,625 )
=($537,750 - $448,125 ) x 50% =$44,812.50
Total gain $448,125 + $44,812.50 =$492,937.50
Market data indicates customers will buy 700 sprockets if they are prices at $13 each. If the price rises to $15 they will only buy 500. If the price is $12 a sprocket, the producers will make 400 sprockets. If the price rises to $13 a sprocket, they will produce 600 sprockets. (a) Find a linear model for the demand price. (b) Find a linear model for the supply price. (c) Use Desmos to find the equilibrium point. What number of units is supplied and demanded? What is the price?
Answer:
Demand = -100P + 2,000
Supply = 200P - 2200
Equilibrium: 600 units and $14 price
Explanation:
We solve for the linear formula of each:
Demand = aP + b
Demand
Quantity Price
700 13
500 15
(700 - 500) / (13 - 15) = 200 / -2 = -100
a = -100
(-100) x 13 + b = 700
(-100) x 15 + b = 500
b = 700 + 1,300 = 2,000
b = 500 + 1,500 = 2,000
Demand = -100P + 2,000
Supply
Quantity price
400 12
600 13
Supply = aP + b
(600 - 400) / ( 13 - 12) = 200
a = 200
400 = 200 x $13 + b
b = 400 + 2600 = -2200
Supply = 200P - 2200
Equilibrium
200P - 2200 = -100P + 2000
300P = 4200
P = 4200 / 300 = 14
Q = -100(14) + 2000 = 600
200 x (14) - 2200 = 600
Suppose a firm’s managers receive bonuses that increase with the size of the firm’s ROE, which was 30% last year and is forecasted to remain at this level during the coming year provided the firm takes on no new expansion projects. Its cost of capital is 10%. Now the firm has the opportunity to make a new investment that promises 20% return on invest capital. Which of the following statements is not correct?a. The example in this question demonstrates the serious weakness in using ROE as the primary criterion in setting executive compensation.b. The new project should be rejected because, if it is accepted, the firm's ROE will decline from 30% because the new ROE will be a weighted average of the old 30% and the 20% returns on the new investment.c. The new project should be accepted because it expected return exceeds the cost of the capital that will be used to finance it.
Answer:
.b. The new project should be rejected because, if it is accepted, the firm's ROE will decline from 30% because the new ROE will be a weighted average of the old 30% and the 20% returns on the new investment
Explanation:
ROE means return on equity
ROE = Net income / shareholders equity
A project should be undertaken if the ROE of the project is greater than the cost of equity

B Corp. has an employee benefit plan for compensated absences that gives each employee 10 paid vacation days and 10 paid sick days. Both vacation and sick days can be carried over indefinitely. Employees can elect to receive payment in lieu of vacation days; however, no payment is given for sick days not taken. At December 31, 2021, B's unadjusted balance of liability for compensated absences was $34,000. B estimated that there were 320 total vacation days and 160 sick days available at December 31, 2021. B's employees earn an average of $192 per day. In its December 31, 2021, balance sheet, what amount of liability for compensated absences is B required to report
Answer: $61,440
Explanation:
Employees can receive payments only for Vacation days and not sick days.
The total number of Vacation days is 320.
Employees make an average of $192 per day so the liability for compensated absences will be;
= 192 * 320
= $61,440

Payback period computation; even cash flows LO P1
Compute the payback period for each of these two separate investments:
a. A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $520,000 and have a useful life of six years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $150,000 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $10,000.
b. A machine costs $380,000, has a $20,000 salvage value, is expected to last eight years, and will generate an after-tax income of $60,000 per year after straight-line depreciation.
Payback period
Choose Numerator: / Choose Denominator: = Payback period
/ = Payback period
a. =
b. =
Answer:
$520,000 / $235,000 = 2.2 years
$380,000 / $105,000 = 3.6 years
Explanation:
Payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows
Payback period = amount invested / cash flow
Cash flow = net income + depreciation expense
Depreciation expense using the straight line depreciation expense = (cost of asset - salvage value) / number of years
A. ($520,000 - $10,000) / 6 = $85,000
cash flow = $150,000 + $85,000 = $235,000
$520,000 / $235,000 = 2.2 years
B. ($380,000 - $20,000) / 8 = $45,000
$45,000 + $60,000 = $105,000
$380,000 / $105,000 = 3.6 years
The following disclosures (excerpted) are from the September 2, 2018, annual report of Costco Wholesale Corporation.
The Company generally recognizes sales, net of returns, at the time the member takes possession of merchandise or receives services. When the Company collects payments from members prior to the transfer of ownership of merchandise or the performance of services, the amounts received are generally recorded as deferred sales, included in other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, until the sale or service is completed. The Company reserves for estimated sales returns based on historical trends in merchandise returns and reduces sales and merchandise costs accordingly. The Company accounts for membership fee revenue, net of refunds, on a deferred basis, ratably over the one-year membership.
The Company’s Executive members qualify for a 2% reward on qualified purchases (up to a maximum reward of approximately $1,000 per year), which can be redeemed only at Costco warehouses. The Company accounts for this reward as a reduction in sales. The sales reduction and corresponding liability (classified as accrued member rewards in the consolidated balance sheets) are computed after giving effect to the estimated impact of non-redemptions, based on historical data. The net reduction in sales was $1,394, $1,281, and $1,172 in 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively.

Which of the following statements best explains in layman terms how Costco accounts for the cash received for its membership fees?
a. Because Costco does not know how many of its members will continue to the end of the year, cash received from members is recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue only at year-end.
b. When it receives cash, the company records it as a current liability. Then, it recognizes revenue evenly over the year.
c. The company records revenue when the cash is received.
d. Because Costco has a refund policy, the company records revenue when the cash is received, less an allowance for expected membership terminations.
Answer:
Which of the following statements best explains in layman terms how Costco accounts for the cash received for its membership fees?
b. When it receives cash, the company records it as a current liability. Then, it recognizes revenue evenly over the year.Explanation:
The first part of the question clearly states that Costco reports membership fees as unearned revenue. As time passes, and the fees are accrued, it recognizes them as earned revenue. Since the membership fees last for a year, Costco recognizes the revenue associated to them evenly throughout the whole year.
Membership fees are not static, as some fees expire, new ones are received. That is why the membership fees account does not vary significantly during the year, but instead it should follow a relatively stable path.

a) its not their money
b) it means a large bureaucracy
c) it aways involves insurance
d) all above
Answer:
Third Parties In General (not Just With Health Care) Are Inefficient Because
b) it means a large bureaucracy.
Explanation:
Ordinarily, in an efficient market, there are no third parties. The market participants remain buyers and sellers. They are aided in their business dealings and for the determination of prices during the exchange by the invisible hand. It is the invisible hand that ensures the existence of market equilibrium between demand and supply. If this invisible hand is removed and a third party comes in to regulate the market and the activities of the market participants, usually the government, it implies that bureaucracy will increase. It has been established that decisions made by the state are not always efficient because more costs are added to the decision-making process.
