The student's question about recording the transactions of Wrigley Home Appraisal Services involves applying the fundamental accounting equation (Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity) to represent how each business activity affects the company's financial position.

The question involves recording the changes in assets, liabilities, and owner’s equity for Tommy Wrigley’s business transactions in equation form. In accounting, every transaction impacts the accounting equation, which states that assets equal liabilities plus owner’s equity (Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity). We can represent each transaction with its effect on this equation.

The owner invested $94,000 in cash: Assets increase, Owner’s Equity increases.

Paid $19,150 for equipment: Assets increase, Cash (an Asset) decreases.

Purchased $13,200 of equipment on credit: Assets increase, Liabilities increase.

Paid $11,200 to creditors: Liabilities decrease, Cash decreases.

Additional investment of $27,000: Assets increase, Owner’s Equity increases.

Performed services for $7,600 in cash: Cash increases, Owner’s Equity increases (Revenue).

Performed services for $5,100 on account: Accounts Receivable increases, Owner’s Equity increases (Revenue).

Paid $3,400 for rent: Expenses increase (Owner’s Equity decreases), Cash decreases.

Received $2,900 from credit clients: Cash increases, Accounts Receivable decreases.

Paid $5,860 for office supplies: Office Supplies (an Asset) increase, Cash decreases.

Owner withdrew $8,400 for personal use: Cash decreases, Owner’s Equity decreases (Drawings).

(Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.) b. What is the sum of the market value of NWC and the market value of fixed assets? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)

Answers

Final answer:

The book value of Klingon's total assets today is $3,334,000. The sum of the market value of net working capital and fixed assets is $7,465,000.

Explanation:

Let's begin by addressing part a of the student's question.

The book value of Klingon’s total assets today is the sum of its net fixed assets and its net working capital (NWC). This is given by the following calculation:

Book Value of Total Assets = Net Fixed Assets + Net Working Capital

Book Value of Total Assets = $3,200,000 (from net fixed assets) + $134,000 (from net working capital) = $3,334,000.

Now, let's continue with part b of the question.

The sum of the market value of NWC and the market value of fixed assets can be calculated by adding the market value of the fixed assets (what they can be sold for today) and the cash that would be received if all current accounts were liquidated (which is effectively the market value of NWC). This is given by:

Sum of Market Values = Market Value of Fixed Assets + Market Value of NWC

Sum of Market Values = $6,600,000 (market value of machinery) + $865,000 (cash on liquidation of current accounts) = $7,465,000.

Bern Company has 100 units costing $200 in beginning inventory. During the year, the company purchases 900 additional units for $1,980. At the end of the year, 200 units remain unsold. If Bern Company utilizes the LIFO method, cost of goods sold will be

Answers

Answer:

$1,760

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of goods sold is shown below:

As we know that

Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory units + purchase units - ending inventory units

= 100 units + 900 units - 200 units

= 800 units

Now the per unit is

= $1,980 ÷ 900 units

= $2.2

So, the cost of goods sold under the LIFO method is

= 800 units × $2.2

= $1,760

A product sells for $125, variable costs are $80, and fixed costs are $45,000. If the selling price can be increased by 20% with a similar increase in variable costs, how many fewer units would have to be sold to earn $300,000? (Round the answer to the nearest unit.)

Answers

Final answer:

To earn $300,000, we need to set up an equation and solve for the number of units that need to be sold.

Explanation:

To calculate the total revenue, we multiply the selling price by the number of units sold. In this case, the selling price of the product is $125. Let's assume that the number of units sold is x. So, the total revenue is 125x.

With a 20% increase in the selling price and the variable costs, the new selling price would be 1.2 times the original selling price ($125 x 1.2).

Similarly, the new variable costs would be 1.2 times the original variable costs ($80 x 1.2).

To earn $300,000, the total revenue must be equal to the total costs, which include the variable and fixed costs.

So, we can set up the following equation: 1.2(125x) = (80 x 1.2)x + $45,000 + $300,000.

Solving this equation will give us the value of x, which represents the number of units that need to be sold to earn $300,000.

Final answer:

The journal entries for the issuance of the bonds, payment of interest, and related amortization using the straight-line method involve recording the cash received, interest expense, and adjustments for the bond premium over the bond term.

Explanation:

The student's question involves preparing journal entries for a bond issued at a premium using the straight-line method of amortization. When the Celine Dion Company issued $600,000 of 10%, 20-year bonds on January 1, 2020, at 102, the premium on the bonds was $12,000 ($600,000 &102%). The bonds will pay semiannual interest on July 1 and January 1, which amounts to $30,000 every six months ($600,000 × 10% ÷ 2). For the first six months, the amortization of the bond premium is $300 ($12,000 ÷ 40, because there are 40 six-month periods in 20 years), which will be subtracted from the interest expense.

(a) To record the issuance of the bonds:
Debit Cash               612,000

A) Gail's employer only enabled her to set money aside and did not provide extra financial benefits, so this will not result in the recognition of gross income.

B) The discount Hannah receives due to purchasing a sofa below its selling price does not result in additional wealth that needs to be counted as gross income.

C) Jayden's commuting pass is a non-cash, fringe benefit and is generally taxable. Therefore, it will typically result in the recognition of gross income.

D) Havana's firm covering her subscription costs for a trade magazine is a typical business expense and it generally does not count as gross income.

Therefore, among the options, only Jayden's case (option c) requires the recognition of gross income.

How long will it take for the dollar's purchasing power to be 3/4ths of what it is now, if the general inflation rate is expected to continue at 5%?

Answers

To figure out when the dollar's purchasing power will be 3/4 of its current value with a 5% inflation rate, use the exponential decay formula. It will take approximately 5.8 years for the purchasing power to decrease to three-fourths at this inflation rate.

The question concerns how long it will take for the dollar's purchasing power to decrease to three-fourths of its current value with an ongoing inflation rate of 5%. This is a mathematical problem involving exponential decay of purchasing power over time.

To determine when the purchasing power will be 3/4ths of its current value, you can use the formula for exponential decay of purchasing power: P(t) = P0*(1 - r)^t, where P(t) is the purchasing power at time t, P0 is the initial purchasing power, r is the inflation rate, and t is time in years.

To find t, you set P(t)/P0 equal to 3/4ths and solve the equation for t when r is 0.05 (5%). The calculation will yield t ≈ 5.792, meaning it will take approximately 5.8 years for the value of the dollar to decline to three-fourths its current value at a 5% inflation rate.

A) $4,800
B) $12,000
C) $5,600
D) 7200 or 7300

Answers

Answer:

D) 7200 or 7300

Initial Margin Rate = 60%

No. of Shares sold = 200

Price of Shares = $60

Amount of Sale = 200 x $60 = $12,000

Initial Investment = Amount of Sale x Initial Margin

Initial Investment = $12,000 x 60%

Initial Investment = $7,200

So the correct option is D) 7200 or 7300 as Initial margin is the minimum amount as a security required to trade in the market. An investor required 60% of the deal to deposit as Initial margin.

Final answer:

The question is about the calculations involved in stock trading. Given the data provided, the initial investment for selling short 200 shares at $60 per share with a margin of 60% would be $7,200.

In terms of mission, aspirations, and risk propensity, what are investors looking for in a team? Select one: a. That its missions and aspirations are closely aligned with those of the entrepreneurial team b. That the entrepreneurs are willing to share in the financial risk of the venture c. That the entrepreneurs are ultimately willing to exit the business d. All of the above

Answers

Answer:

a.That its missions and aspirations are closely aligned with those of the entrepreneurial team

Explanation:

Separation between the investors and the management team of a business brings about business interest risk. The business interest risk is the probability that the investors interest will be different from the business management interest. In order to align their interests with that of the entrepreneurial team of a business, investors normally for missions and inspirations that are closely aligned with those of the entrepreneurial team.

This congruence is important for boosting investors` confidence in the entrepreneurial team, because it shows that the investors and the entrepreneurial team are on the same page.

Option B is obvious in all business. It can`t be a deciding factor.

Option C is incorrect for this context.

Suppose the daily change in price of a stock is normally distributed with mean = .20 and standard deviation = .30. What price change is associated with the 25th percentile?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a=0.2 -0.674*0.3=-0.00235[/tex]

So the value that separates the bottom 25% of data from the top 75% is -0.00235.  

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(0.2,0.3)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=0.2[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=0.3[/tex]

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

[tex]P(X>a)=0.75[/tex]   (a)

[tex]P(X<a)=0.25[/tex]   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.25 of the area on the left and 0.75 of the area on the right it's z=-0.674. On this case P(Z<-0.674)=0.25 and P(z>-0.674)=0.75

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

[tex]P(X<a)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.25[/tex]  

[tex]P(z<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.25[/tex]

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

[tex]z=-0.674<\frac{a-0.2}{0.3}[/tex]

And if we solve for a we got

[tex]a=0.2 -0.674*0.3=-0.00235[/tex]

So the value that separates the bottom 25% of data from the top 75% is -0.00235.

where time and rate must be express in the same metric.

In this case portion of a 360 year

260,000  x 0.05 x 45/360 = 1,625

At maturity we write-off the note account and reocgnize the interest expense/revenue depending on which side we are.

if we issued the noe, we are doin an interest expense.

If we have the note we receive the cash get interest revenue.

Final answer:

Journal entries for Cosimo Enterprises include the issuance of the note (debit Merchandise Inventory, credit Notes Payable) and payment at maturity (debit Notes Payable and Interest Expense, credit Cash).

Ashton is an investor looking at the income statements of two different companies. The first company has a very detailed income statement, and the second company has a very condensed income statement. Which company is Ashton more likely to invest in? Why?

Answers

Answer:

The first company with detailed information.

Explanation:

Financial statements show the financial position of a company at a particular period in time. The various types are balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement.

The income statement shows more clearly value of the company.

When Ashton is studying the income statement, he will need as much detail as possible so that he can make informed decision to invest.

The company with detailed income statement will be a better option. The company with condensed income statement will most likely not reveal some important information that will present itself as an unpleasant surprise in the future.

Final answer:

Ashton is more likely to invest in the company with the condensed income statement. A condensed income statement provides a summary of the company's financial performance in a concise manner. This suggests that the company may be well-managed and focused on key financial metrics.

Explanation:

Ashton is more likely to invest in the company with the condensed income statement. A condensed income statement provides a summary of the company's financial performance in a concise manner, making it easier for Ashton to quickly identify key information. In contrast, a detailed income statement may be overwhelming and time-consuming to analyze.

Additionally, a condensed income statement indicates that the company has a good understanding of its financial performance and can present its information efficiently. This suggests that the company may be well-managed and focused on key financial metrics.

Therefore, Ashton is more likely to invest in the company with the condensed income statement as it provides a clearer and more efficient overview of the company's financial performance.

Haulsee Inc. builds 800,000 golf carts a year and purchases the electronic motors for these carts for $370 each. Ordering costs are $540 and Haulsee’s inventory carrying costs average 14% of the inventory value. What is the total inventory costs? a. $565,443 b. $224,331 c. $211,555d. $211,555,120

Answers

Answer:

Correct answer is c. $211,555.

Explanation:

Here inventory cost means total ordering cost plus total carrying cost for they year. This can be determine by using simple EOQ (economic order quantity) formula given below.

EOQ =((2* Annaul Requirement * cost per order)/carrying cost per unit)^ (1/2)

EOQ = ((2*800,000*540)/(370*14%))^(1/2)

EOQ = 4,084 units

so

Total order cost = 800.000/4,084 * 540 = 196 (aprox) *540 = 105,840 -A

Total Carrying cost = 4,084/2 * (370*14%) = 105,776-B

Total Cost = A+B = $ 211,555 (aprox)

Segmentation and targeting influence a company’s resource allocation, potentially affecting strategic decisions in all of the following areas except:

A.) price
B.) advertising
C.) mission formulation
D.) customer management
E.) sales force

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": mission formulation.

Explanation:

Segmentation and targeting is the process by which companies classify their existing and potential customers by sex, age, race, and income. This is done to analyze specific consumers' preferences and behavior so the firm can provide them with a good or service they are likely to consume.

Segmentation implies analyzing pricing, salesforce, advertising, and customer management but mission formulation is a step that the firm takes before starting segmenting its market.

Segmentation and targeting impact strategic decisions in price, advertising, customer management, and sales force but not mission formulation, which defines a company's core purpose and values.

The question asks which area is not affected by segmentation and targeting in the context of a company's strategic decisions. Options given are price, advertising, mission formulation, customer management, and sales force. While segmentation and targeting directly influence decisions related to price, advertising, customer management, and sales force by determining how resources are allocated towards different market segments, mission formulation stands out as mostly unrelated. The company's mission is generally broad and foundational, defining its purpose, core values, and over-arching goals, which are not typically altered based on segmentation and targeting strategies. Hence, the correct answer is C) mission formulation.
