A company's inventory records indicate the following data for the month of January: Jan. 1 Beginning 180 units at $9 each Jan. 5 Purchased 170 units at $10 each Jan. 9 Sold 300 units at $35 each Jan. 14 Purchased 200 units at $11 each Jan. 20 Sold 150 units at $35 each Jan. 30 Purchased 230 units at $12 each What is the amount of cost of goods sold for January, if the company uses the LIFO, FIFO and weighted average perpetual inventory system?
Answer:
The amount of cost of goods sold for January:
LIFO FIFO Weighted Average
Cost of goods sold $4,520 $4,420 $4,452
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Date Description Units Unit Cost/Price Total Cost Total Revenue
Jan. 1 Beginning 180 units at $9 each $1,620
Jan. 5 Purchased 170 units at $10 each 1,700
Jan. 9 Sold (300) units at $35 each $10,500
Jan. 14 Purchased 200 units at $11 each 2,200
Jan. 20 Sold (150) units at $35 each 5,250
Jan. 30 Purchased 230 units at $12 each 2,760
Total 780 / 450 $8,280 $15,750
b) Cost of goods sold:
LIFO:
Jan. 9 Sold (300) 170 units at $10 = $1,700
130 units at $9 = 1,170
Jan. 20 Sold (150) 150 units at $11 = 1,650
Cost of goods sold = $4,520
c) FIFO:
Jan. 9 Sold (300) 180 units at $9 = $1,620
120 units at $10 = 1,200
Jan. 20 Sold (150) 50 units at $10 = 500
100 units at $11 = 1,100
Cost of goods sold = $4,420
d) Weighted-Average:
Jan. 9 Sold (300) 300 units at $9.49 = $2,847
Jan. 20 Sold (150) 150 units at $10.70 = 1,605
Cost of goods sold = $4,452
Weighted Average Cost at each point of sale:
$9.49 = ($1,620 + $1,700)/350 units
$10.70 = (($9.49*50) + $2,200)/250 units
e) LIFO = Last In, First Out is based on the assumption that the items sold are from the last inventory purchased instead of the first.
FIFO = First In, First Out is based on the assumption that the items sold are from the first inventory instead of the last.
Weighted-Average: This method averages the cost of inventory to determine the unit cost.
Under the perpetual inventory system, the inventory costs are recorded immediately after an inventory transaction and not at the end of a period.

Pam retires after 28 years of service with her employer. She is 66 years old and has contributed $42,000 to her employer's qualified pension fund, all of which was taxable when earned. She elects to receive her retirement benefits as an annuity of $4,200 per month for the remainder of her life. Click here to access Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2. a. Assume that Pam retired in June 2019 and collected six annuity payments that year. What is her gross income from the annuity payments in the first year
Answer:
A. $24,000
B. $50,400
Explanation:
A. Calculation for her gross income from the annuity payments in the first year
First step is to calculate the exclusion per payment
Exclusion per payment= $42,000/210
Exclusion per payment= $200
Now let calculate her Gross income
Collections in 2019 $25,200
(6 annuity payments*$4,200)
Less Exclusion for capital recovery ($1,200)
(6 annuity payments*$200)
Gross income $24,000
($25,200-$1,200)
Therefore her gross income from the annuity payments in the first year will be $24,000
B. Calculation for her gross income from the annuity payments in the twenty-fourth year
Gross income=$4,200 × 12 annuity payments
Gross income= $50,400
Therefore her gross income from the annuity payments in the twenty-fourth year will be $50,400
Covent Gardens Inc. is considering two financial plans for the coming year. Management expects sales to be $300,000, operating costs to be $265,000, assets to be $200,000, and its tax rate to be 35%. Under Plan A it would use 25% debt and 75% common equity. The interest rate on the debt would be 8.8%, but under a contract with existing bondholders the Times Interest Earned (TIE) ratio would have to be maintained at or above 4.5. Under Plan B, the maximum debt that met the TIE constraint would be employed. Assuming that sales, operating costs, assets, the interest rate, and the tax rate would all remain constant, by how much would the ROE change in response to the change in the capital structure?
Answer:
Assets = $200,000
For Plan A
25% debt = 200,000 * 25% = 50,000
75% equity = 200,000 * 75% = 150,000
The debt will generate 8.8% interest expense. Interest expense = 50,000 * 8.8% = 4,400
Income for the expected project under Plan A
Sales revenue 300,00
Operating cost 265,000
EBIT 35,000
Interest expense 4,400
EBT 30,600
Income tax 10,710
Net income $19,890
Times interest earned = EBIT /interest expense = 35,000 / 4,400 = 7.95. So, it achieve the requirement of 4.5 or above.
ROE for plan A = Net income / Equity = 19,890/150,000 = 0,1326 = 13.26%
Under Plan B
We will take as much debt as we can until Times interest earned = 4.5
EBIT / interest expense = Times interest earned
35,000/Interest expense = 4.5
Interest expense = 35,000/4.5
Interest expense = 7.777,78
Net income = (EBIT - interest) x (1- tax-rate)
Net income = (35,000 - 7,777.78) x (1-35%)
Net income = 17.694,443
Interest expense = Debt * Rate
Debt = Interest expense / Rate
Debt = 7,777.78/0.088
Debt = 88.383,86
Asset = Debt + Equity
200,000 = 88,383.86 + Equity
Equity = 200,000 - 88,383.86 =
Equity = 111,616.14
ROE for Plan B = Net income/ Equity = 17,694.443 / 111,616.14 = 0,15852943 = 15.85%
So, we compare both ROE
Plan A = 13.26%
Plan B = 15.85%
Difference = 2.59%
So therefore, using the Plan B will increase the ROE for 2.59%

The owners can also speak to the business about the hours when there are available spots.
Use a piece of scrap paper to prepare a cost of Goods Manufactured from the following numbers: Beginning Direct Raw Materials -$69,000 Direct Raw Materials Purchases-$92,000. Direct Raw Materials Ending Inventory- $8000 Direct Labor-$25,000. Factory Overhead $37,000. Beginning work in process inventory $22,000. Ending Work in process Inventory $23,500 What are the total manufacturing costs for this statement
Answer:
the total manufacturing cost is $215,000
Explanation:
The computation of the total manufacturing cost is shown below:
= Direct material used + direct labor cost + manufacturing overhead cost
= $69,000 + $92,000 - $8,000 + $25,000 + $37,000
= $215,000
Hence, the total manufacturing cost is $215,000
We simply applied the above formula

Calculate the 2016 ending balance in retained earnings.
Answer:
$67,000
Explanation:
Retained Earnings = Opening Balance + Profit for the Year - Dividends
where,
Profit for the Year = Sales - Expenses
= $40,000 - (4,000 + 17,000 + 11,000)
= $8,000
therefore,
Retained Earnings = $59,000 + $8,000 = $67,000

An investment offers $6,260 per year for 17 years, with the first payment occurring 11 years from now. If the required return is 3 percent, what is the value of the investment? (HINT: Remember that when you calculate the PV of the annuity, the claculator gives you the present value of the annuity 1 period before the annuity starts. So if the annuity starts in year 7, that calculator will to give you the persent value of annuity in year 6. Now you have to bring this number to period 0 by inputting: N=6 (1 period before the annuity starts, in your case it would be a different number depending when your annuity starts) R=3 FV=Present value of annuity you found in step 1. And you solve for PV)
Answer: $61,328.15
Explanation:
The amount paid is per year so this is an annuity. It will begin 11 years from now so one should find the present value in that year:
Present Value of annuity = Annuity * ( 1 - ( 1 + rate) ^ - no. of periods) / rate
= 6,260 * ( 1 - ( 1 + 3%) ⁻¹⁷) / 3%
= $82,419.90
That is the present value if the annuity starts 11 years from now which means that it is the present value 10 years from now (ordinary annuities are paid end of period).
You need to discount to current period:
= 82,419.90 / ( 1 + 3%)¹⁰
= $61,328.15
Your manager is concerned that costs are being misappropriated due to large balances in ending work in process inventories while currently using the FIFO Method for accounting for beginning work in process inventories. Using examples from your own experience or from the book, explain to the manager which of the methods of process costing you believe should be used and why.
Answer:
The company should use the weighted average method of process costing.
Explanation:
FIFO and Weighted average cost method are the two methods of Process costing. The company is already using the FIFO method for accounting of inventory under which cost are misappropriated into closing WIP.
To solve such issue, the company can use the weighted average method under which cost is calculated by weighted average and then evenly distributed to the unit transferred to other department and the ending work in process.
Example: Suppose company purchased goods lying stock 20000 units at $5 each. Weighted average cost calculated per unit is $3 per unit. Calculate Closing work in process
==> FIFO = 20000*5 = $100,000

Retained Earnings Balance = Opening Balance + Profit for the year - Dividends.
where,
Profit for the Year = Sales - Expenses
= $470,000 - ($78,000 + $18,000 + $33,000 + $2,000 + $42,000)
= $297,000
therefore,
Retained Earnings Balance = $94,700 + $297,000 - 30,000 = $361,700
An investor has up to $250,000 to invest in three types of in-vestments. Type A pays 8% annually and has a risk factor of0. Type B pays 10% annually and has a risk factor of 0.06.Type C pays 14% annually and has a risk factor of 0.10. Tohave a well-balanced portfolio, the investor imposes the fol-lowing conditions. The average risk factor should be nogreater than 0.05. Moreover, at least one-fourth of the totalportfolio is to be allocated to Type A investments and at leastone-fourth of the portfolio is to be allocated to Type B invest-ments. How much should be allocated to each type of invest-ment to obtain a maximum return?
Answer:
Answer is explained below in the explanation section.
Explanation:
Solution:
An investor has up to $250,000 to invest in three types of investment.
Type A pays 8% annually and has risk factor of 0.
Type B pays 10% annually and has risk factor of 0.06.
Type C pays 14% annually and has risk factor of 0.10.
So,
Decision Variables are:
[tex]X_{1}[/tex] = Total Amount invested in Type A.
[tex]X_{2}[/tex] = Total Amount invested in Type B.
[tex]X_{3}[/tex] = Total Amount invested in Type C.
So, the Objective Function will be:
Objective function:
Max Z = 0.08[tex]X_{1}[/tex] + 0.10[tex]X_{2}[/tex] + 0.14[tex]X_{3}[/tex]
And the Constraints will be:
1. Total Amount Variable:
[tex]X_{1}[/tex] + [tex]X_{2}[/tex] + [tex]X_{3}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] 250000
2. Total Risk is no greater than 0.05:
0[tex]X_{1}[/tex] + 0.06[tex]X_{2}[/tex] + 0.10[tex]X_{3}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.05
3. At least one fourth of the total amount invested to be allocated to Type A investment.
[tex]X_{1}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 0.25 ( [tex]X_{1}[/tex] + [tex]X_{2}[/tex] + [tex]X_{3}[/tex] )
0.75[tex]X_{1}[/tex] - 0.25[tex]X_{2}[/tex] - 0.25[tex]X_{3}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 0
4. At least one fourth of the total amount to be allocated to Type B investment.
[tex]X_{2}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 0.25 ( [tex]X_{1}[/tex] + [tex]X_{2}[/tex] + [tex]X_{3}[/tex] )
-0.25[tex]X_{1}[/tex] + 0.75[tex]X_{2}[/tex] - 0.25[tex]X_{3}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 0
5. And the non- negativity constraints are:
[tex]X_{1}[/tex],[tex]X_{2}[/tex], and [tex]X_{3}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] 0

Bravo Industries intends to retire $950,000 in short-term debt using proceeds from the sale of 30,000 shares of common stock. The stock sells for $25 per share. How much of its short-term debt can Bravo exclude from current liabilities if the sale occurs after the balance sheet date but before the balance sheet issue
Answer:
the amount that should be excluded from the current liabilities is $750,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that should be excluded from the current liabilities is shown below;
= Number of shares in the common stock × selling price per share
= 30,000 shares × $25
= $750,000
Hence, the amount that should be excluded from the current liabilities is $750,000

Answer:
Date Account Details Debit Credit
Feb 8 Cash $5,684
Sales Discount $ 116
Accounts Receivable $5,800
Explanation:
Credit terms of 2/10, n/30 mean that there is a 2% sales discount if the debt if the credit sale is settled in 10 days. If not, the person will have to pay in 30 days.
Truman paid within 10 days so qualifies for the discount which is:
= 5,800 * 2%

The amount of money withheld from an employee's paycheck is...
A.Payroll deductions
B.Levied taxes
C.FICA
D.Gross earnings
Answer:
A.Payroll deductions
Explanation:
Withholding is the action by employers to retain a portion of an employee's salary for a specific function. Money withheld does not get to the employee bank's account. The amount withheld is shown in the pay stub, but the employee will not access it.
Employers collect the amounts withheld and remit them to the concerned agency. Deductions are usually a percentage of the employee's gross pay.
Two manufacturing firms, located in cities 90 miles apart, both send their trucks four times a week to the other city full of cargo and return empty. Each driver costs $275 per day with benefits (the round trip takes all day) and each firm has truck operating costs of $1.30 a mile. How much could each firm save weekly if each sent its truck twice a week and hauled the other firm's cargo on the return trip
Answer: $1,018
Explanation:
Cities are 90 miles apart so a roundtrip is 180 miles which means that the operating cost per trip is:
= 1.30 * 180
= $234
Total cost per trip = Divers cost + operating cost
= 275 + 234
= $509
Four trips are made per week so total cost is:
= 509 * 4
= $2,036
If each sent its truck twice a week and hauled the other firm's cargo on the return trip then savings would be:
= Cost of 4 trips - cost of 2 trips
= 2,036 - (509 * 2)
= $1,018
