Days to Sell
Answer:
Current Ratio 1.05
Receivable turnover days 129 days
Days to collect 2.83
Inventory Turnover days 38 days
Days to sell 9.61
Explanation:
Current Ratio : Total Current Assets / Total Current Liabilities
Current Ratio : 8,250,030 / 7,830,300 = 1.05
Receivable turnover days : ( Accounts Receivable / Total Sales ) * 365 days
Receivable turnover days : ( 4,730,000 / 13,340,300 ) * 365
Receivable turnover days : 129 days
Days to collect : 365 days / Accounts receivable turnover days
Days to collect : 365 / 129 days = 2.83
Inventory turnover days : ( Inventory / Cost of goods sold ) * 365
Inventory turnover days : ( 938,360 / 8,914,195 ) * 365
Inventory turnover days : 38 days
Days to sell : 365 days / Inventory turnover ratio
Days to sell : 365 / 38 days = 9.61

Tom Jordan is a manager for a McDonald's restaurant. Many of his key responsibilities include analyzing data and making key decisions for the success of his store. Tom's store has been experiencing decreased sales for breakfast services over the past 3 months. Tom is unsure why breakfast revenues are down while lunch and dinner revenues remain unchanged. Tom believes that he can drive revenue up by implementing a few different breakfast promotions such as free coffee or hash browns with the purchase of a meal. Tom performs an extensive analysis of how continuous changes in breakfast promotions could impact his daily revenue. What type of DSS analysis is Tom performing? optimization analysis sensitivity analysis transaction analysis goal-seeking analysis
Answer: sensitivity analysis
Explanation:
From the information given in the question, we can infer that the type of DSS analysis that Tom is performing is the sensitivity analysis.
Sensitivity analysis simply refers to the quantitative risk assessment that deajs with how the alteration of a particular variable will have an effect on the model's output.
Here, Tom believing that he can increase revenue up by implementing a few different breakfast promotions like the free coffee or hash browns shows that he's using sensitivity analysis.
Behan and his wife took title together at the same time to the same real property here in Michigan (while married to each other) and hold the real property as tenants by the entirety. Behan dies while still married to his wife. The estate is a conditional estate, not a fee simple estate. Behan's interest to the described real property, upon Behan's death:
a. escheats to the State of Michigan, under the facts of this question
b. passes back to the holder of the condition who now holds Behan's interest jointly with Behan's widow
c. passes to his wife, assuming she did not intentionally bring about Behan's death
d. passes through a probate proceeding, since Behan is now dead
Answer: passes to his wife, assuming she did not intentionally bring about Behan's death
Explanation:
We should note that Behan's interest to the described real property, upon the death of Behan will pass to his wife, assuming she did not intentionally bring about Behan's death.
Since they both own tne property as tenants and is a conditional estate, it simply means that the survivorship rights should be passed to another owner which is the wife in this case as long as the wife isn't responsible for his death.
Patterson Development sometimes sells property on an installment basis. In those cases, Patterson reports income in its income statement in the year of the sale but reports installment income by the installment method on the tax return. Installment income in 2021 was $240 million, which Patterson expects to collect equally over the next four years. The tax rate is 25%, but based on an enacted law, is scheduled to become 35% in 2023.
Patterson's pretax accounting income for the 2013 income statement was $530 million of this, $30 million is non-taxable revenue from proceeds of a life insurance policy.

Clementine Company makes skateboards. They prepare master and flexible budgets and then perform variance analysis after the budget plan period elapses. Their data is as follows: Budget Actual Selling price per unit $96 $104 Variable cost per unit $52 $55 Quantity sold 996 1,024 What is the Clementine's volume variance for SALES? If the variance is unfavorable put a minus sign in front of your answer. Enter your answer without commas or decimals.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Sales volume variance is the difference between Budgeted quantity and actual quantity sold, multiplied by the standard profit margin. Standard profit margin is the excess of Budgeted selling price over actual selling price
Therefore,
Clementine's sales volume variance
= (BQ - AQS) × Standard profit margin
= (996 - 1,024) × ($96 - $52)
= -28 × -$44
= $1,232 F
While calculating the costs of products and services, a standard costing system ________. does not keep track of overhead cost traces direct costs to output by multiplying the standard prices or rates by the actual quantities uses standard costs to determine the cost of products allocates overhead costs on the basis of the actual overhead-cost rates

In the case when we determined the cost of the product and its services so here the standard costing system would be used to measure the cost of product as this is the costing system that are based upon the estimated or predicted values and are significant for generating a product
Which of the following is not a way to accomplish an activity cost reduction? a.improve operations so that the activity-base usage per unit is reduced b.use lower-cost materials c.change the classification of employees doing an activity so as to decrease the activity rate d.none of the above
Answer:
b. use lower-cost materials
Explanation:
In Accounting, costing is the measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.
Production costs can be categorized as;
1. Variable costs: these are costs that usually change with respect to changes in the level of production or output. Examples are direct labor, maintenance of equipment or machines, raw materials costs etc.
2. Fixed costs: these are the costs which are not directly related to the level of production or not affected by the quantity of output in an organization. Examples are rent, depreciation, administrative cost, research and development costs, marketing costs etc.
Some of the ways to accomplish activity cost reduction are;
I. The operations of a business firm should be improved in order to make the activity-base usage per unit to be reduced.
II. The classification of employees doing an activity should be changed so as to decrease the activity rate.

You have 40 years left until retirement and want to retire with $5 million. Your salary is paid annually, and you will receive $50,000 at the end of the current year. Your salary will increase at 3 percent per year, and you can earn a 10 percent return on the money you invest. If you save a constant percentage of your salary, what percentage of your salary must you save each year?
Answer:
16.67%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what percentage of your salary must you save each year
First step is to calculate the Annual savings
Annual savings=$5 million*[(10%-3%)/(1+0.1)^40-(1+0.03)^40]
Annual savings=$5 million*0.07/(1.1^40-1.03^40)
Annual savings=$8333.88
Now let determine the percentage of the salary you must save each year
Proportion of savings=$8333.88/$50,000
Proportion of savings=0.1667*100
Proportion of savings=16.67%
Therefore the percentage of your salary that you must save each year is 16.67%

b. A currency is widely accepted in exchange for goods and services and therefore makes economic transactions easier.
c. A currency can be used to express the value goods and services that are both relatively expensive and goods and services that are relatively cheap.
d. People are willing to accept a currency in the future as compensation for debts accrued earlier
Answer:
d. People are willing to accept a currency in the future as compensation for debts accrued earlier
Explanation:
Money can be used to pay your current debts at a later date since $100 will still be $100 in the future. They might lose some of its value due to inflation, but they do not spoil or rot, and will probably be accepted in the future. imagine trying to pay an old debt with rotten tomatoes or an old cow.
Kragan Clothing Company manufactures its own designed and labeled athletic wear and sells its products through catalog sales and retail outlets. While Kragan has for years used activity-based costing in its manufacturing activities, it has always used traditional costing in assigning its selling costs to its product lines. Selling costs have traditionally been assigned to Kraganâs product lines at a rate of 70% of direct materials costs. Its direct materials costs for the month of March for Kraganâs "high-intensity" line of athletic wear are $395,000. The company has decided to extend activity-based costing to its selling costs. Data relating to the "high-intensity" line of products for the month of March are as follows.
Activity Cost Pools Cost Drivers Overhead Rate Number of Cost Drivers Used per Activity
Sales commissions Dollar sales $0.05 per dollar sales $940,000
AdvertisingâTV Minutes $300 per minute 230
AdvertisingâInternet Column inches $10 per column inch 2,000
Catalogs Catalogs mailed $2.50 per catalog 62,400
Cost of catalog sales Catalog orders $1 per catalog order 8,750
Credit and collection Dollar sales $0.03 per dollar sales $940,000
Requied:
Compute the selling costs to be assigned to the "high-intensity" line of athletic wear for the month of March (1) using the traditional product costing system (direct materials cost is the cost driver), and (2) using activity-based costing.
Answer:
1. $276,500
2. $328,950
Explanation:
1. Computation for the selling costs to be assigned to the "high-intensity" line of athletic wear for the month of March using the traditional product costing system
Traditional product costing = $395,000 * 70%
Traditional product costing = $276,500
Therefore the selling costs to be assigned to the "high-intensity" line of athletic wear for the month of March using the traditional product costing system is $276,500
2. Computation for the selling costs to be assigned to the "high-intensity" line of athletic wear for the month of March using activity-based costing
Activity based costing :
Sales commissions ($940,000*$0.05) $47,000
Advertising - TV (230*$300) $69,000
Advertising - internet (2,000*$10) 20,000
Catalogs (62,400*$2.50) $156,000
Cost of catalog sales (8,750*$1) 8,750
Credit and collection ($940,000*$0.03) $28,200
Selling cost $328,950
Therefore the selling costs to be assigned to the "high-intensity" line of athletic wear for the month of March using activity-based costing is $328,950
P3-uZ Company produces leather sandals. The company employs a standard costing system and has the following standards in order to produce one pair of sandals:
Standard quantity Standard price
Direct materials 2 leather strips ?? per strip
Direct Labor 2.5 hours $12 per hour
Variable overhead 2.5 hours ?? per hour
During May, P3-uz used 16,300 leather strips in the production of sandals. P3-uz had no beginning inventories of any type for May. At May 31, P3-uz had 600 leather strips remaining in its direct materials inventory.
P3-uz Company reported the following variances for May:
Direct material price variance $40,525 favorable
Direct labor rate variance $27,560 unfavorable
Total direct labor variance $37,240 favorable
Variable overhead spending variance $9,280 unfavorable
Variable overhead efficiency variance $60,480 favorable
Required:
Calculate P3-uz's direct material quantity variance for May.
Answer:
Direct material quantity variance for May = (16,300 - (2 * Actual number of sandals produced in May)) * 9.84
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as total cost of leather strips purchased and direct labor are both omitted. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
P3-uZ Company produces leather sandals. The company employs a standard costing system and has the following standards in order to produce one pair of sandals:
Standard quantity Standard price
Direct materials 2 leather strips ?? per strip
Direct Labor 2.5 hours $12 per hour
Variable overhead 2.5 hours ?? per hour
During May, P3-uz purchased leather strips at a total cost of $124,250 and had direct labor totaling $154,760. During May, P3-uz used 16,300 leather strips in the production of sandals. P3-uz had no beginning inventories of any type for May. At May 31, P3-uz had 600 leather strips remaining in its direct materials inventory.
P3-uz Company reported the following variances for May:
Direct material price variance $40,525 favorable
Direct labor rate variance $27,560 unfavorable
Total direct labor variance $37,240 favorable
Variable overhead spending variance $9,280 unfavorable
Variable overhead efficiency variance $60,480 favorable
Required:
Calculate P3-uz's direct material quantity variance for May.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
Actual total quantity = Number of strips of leather used in production = 16,300
Number of strips of leather purchased = Actual total quantity + Number of leather strips remaining in its direct materials inventory = 16,300 + 600 = 16,900
Actual price per strips = Total cost of leather strips purchased / Number of strips of leather purchased = $124,250 / 16,900 = $7.35
Direct material price variance = (Standard price – Actual price) * Actual quantity ................... (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1) and solve for Standard price, we have:
$40,525 = (Standard price - 7.35) * 16,300
$40,525 = (Standard price * 16,300) - (7.35 * 16300)
(Standard price * 16,300) = $40,525 + (7.35 * 16300)
Standard price = ($40,525 + (7.35 * 16300)) / 16,300
Standard price = $9.84
Therefore, we have:
Direct material quantity variance for May = (Actual total quantity - (Standard quantity * Actual number sandals produced)) * Standard price ................. (2)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (2) and solve for Standard price, we have:
Direct material quantity variance for May = (16,300 - (2 * Actual number of sandals produced in May)) * 9.84 ............... (3)
Therefore, equation (3) gives the Direct material quantity variance for May since the question is silent on the Actual number of sandals produced produced in May.

Answer:
Order size= $57.61 per machine hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Order size:
Estimated total overhead= $581,866
Estimated total machine hours= 10,100
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
Order size= 581,866 / 10,100
Order size= $57.61 per machine hour
Solutions Inc. signs a 10-year lease for a building owned by Property Inc. that is appropriately classified as an operating lease by both the lessee and lessor. Lease payments are $150,000 per year. The building has an estimated useful life of 30 years with no salvage value. Assume that the building has a fair and carrying value of $2,000,000 at the commencement of the lease, what amount would Property Inc. recognize in its income statement (ignoring taxes) for the year ended December 31, 2020
Answer: $83,333
Explanation:
Amount Property will recognize in income statement:
= Lease revenue - Depreciation
Depreciation:
= (Fair value - salvage) / useful life
= (2,000,000 - 0) / 30
= $66,667
Amount recognized in income statement:
= 150,000 - 66,667
= $83,333
outlinr the selection procedure as a huma resource activity
Answer and Explanation:
A selection process as a human resources activity must be outlined, starting with the filling out of a form by the candidates for the vacancy that they are being offered through the selection. This form must contain basic information that will allow the human resources department to select people who have the minimum requirements necessary to participate in the next phase of the process. The next phase should be an interview, to get to know the candidates, assess their communication skills and ask incisive questions about the skills they have and the level of interest in the vacancy they are competing for. This is the key moment in the process, where the human resources department will be able to determine who deserves to be selected.
Suppose the economy is experiencing a recession. The output gap is hovering at −7%, causing higher than normal unemployment. Using the Fed model, complete the following passages to compare and contrast how monetary policy and fiscal policy can impact the economy. a. The Federal Reserve can reduce the to stimulate greater output and employment. The federal government can increase to help ease the recession. b. If both monetary and fiscal policy are used, the MP curve will shift , and the IS curve will shift to the . Both shifts will increase , and t
Answer:
a. The Federal Reserve can reduce the interest rates to stimulate greater output and employment. The federal government can increase government spending to help ease the recession.
The Fed can reduce interest rates by engaging in expansionary monetary policy that would then make it easier to borrow funds for investment. The Federal government can also increase spending as this will put more money into the economy to help it start moving again.
b. If both monetary and fiscal policy are used, the MP curve will shift downward, and the IS curve will shift to the right. Both shifts will increase income.
If both monetary and fiscal policy are used, companies will start producing again and hiring more people which will shift the Marginal Productivity curve downward. The IS curve will also shift to the right and both to these are indicators of an increase in income.
A reserve clause binds a professional athlete to a sports franchise even if the player does not have a contract with the team that retains the rights to the player. In other words, the player can only play for a single team and other teams may not bid for the player's services even in the absence of a contract. Major League Baseball was forced to outlaw reserve clauses in 1975. As a result of the ban, we would expect that
Answer: D. players in the major leagues would be paid more than their marginal product.
Explanation:
When the reserve clause was in effect, a team that had the rights to a player could pay the player what they wanted or at least according to their marginal product depending on how good they were without having to worry about other teams offering more money to the player because they could just decide not to let the player go.
When this clause was removed, this changed. Other teams could bid for players so bidding wars allowed major league players to make more money from either their team which would be forced to increase their salaries, or from other teams who would entice the players to move with higher salaries. This led to major league players being paid more than their marginal product.

The ___ function returns the year portion of the data/time available
Answer:
The Excel YEAR function returns the year component of a date as a 4-digit number.
Explanation:
The required return on the stock of Moe's Pizza is 10.4 percent and aftertax required return on the company's debt is 3.28 percent. The company's market value capital structure consists of 65 percent equity. The company is considering a new project that is less risky than current operations and it feels the risk adjustment factor is minus 1.5 percent. The tax rate is 35 percent. What is the required return for the new project
Answer:
WACC - new project = 6.408% rounded off to 6.41%
Explanation:
The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure. The capital structure can consist of one or more of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC is calculated as follows,
WACC = wD * rD * (1 - tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
w represents the weight of each component r represents the cost of each componentD, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equityrD * (1 - tax rate) is the after tax cost of debtWe first need to calculate the WACC of the company and then adjust it for the new project.
WACC = 35% * 3.28% + 65% * 10.4%
WACC = 7.908%
As the new project is less risky and has an adjustment factor of -1.5%, the required rate of return for the new project will be,
WACC - new project = 7.908% - 1.5%
WACC - new project = 6.408% rounded off to 6.41%
On March 1, Imhoff Co. began construction of a small building. Payments of $202,539 were made monthly for several months. The payments begin on the first day of March. The building was completed and ready for occupancy on the first day of June. In determining the amount of interest cost to be capitalized, the weighted-average accumulated expenditures are
Answer:
$101,269.5
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the weighted-average accumulated expenditures
Weighted-average accumulated expenditures=$202,539* (3/12 + 2/12 + 1/12)
Weighted-average accumulated expenditures=$202,539*0.5
Weighted-average accumulated expenditures=$101,269.5
Therefore In determining the amount of interest cost to be capitalized, the weighted-average accumulated expenditures are $101,269.5
Social responsibility theories:________
a. Are generally classified as modern ethical versions of Utilitarianism
b. Determine the moral worth of an action regardless of their consequences
c. Are largely precise legalistic formulations
d. Classify corporate social responsibility as typically the corporation engaging in community and civic affairs in a prudent manner.
Answer:
a. Are generally classified as modern ethical versions of Utilitarianism
Explanation:
It is correct to say that social responsibility theories are generally classified as modern ethical versions of utilitarianism, due to the fact that utilitarianism can be understood as an ethical doctrine whose premise is that moral agents must act to promote the greatest amount of good -be.
In this case, the moral agents are the companies, which currently assume a much larger role than just profitable entities, there is a social demand for companies to have corporate social responsibility, that is, to promote well-being and contribute with the community where they operate, through actions that minimize environmental impacts, social programs, community support, etc.
A researcher was interested in the relationship between the number of texts sent in a day and the number of e-mails sent in a day by employees at a certain company. Using 15 data values, a 90 percent confidence interval for the slope of a regression model was found to be (2.31, 3.47). The researcher claims that the interval would have been narrower with a different sample size if all other things remained the same. Which of the following sample sizes would make the researcher's claim NOT true?
A. 14
B. 16
C. 20
D. 30
E. 100
Answer:
A. 14
Explanation:
the researcher claims that the width of the interval would have been smaller if the sample had been different, and in this case different refers to larger. The original sample included only 15 people, so in order to increase the data sample, you must include more than 15 people. That is why 14 doesn't make sense.
