Based on the following information, determine the amount of equipment on the balance sheet. Total liabilities and owner's equity equals $11.750; total current assets equals $19,800; land equals $15,000; and accumulated depreciation equipment equals $1,550. a. $11,500 b. $3,250 c. $3,400 d. None of these choices are correct
Answer:
a. $11,500
Explanation:
Since the total liabilities and owners equity is $44,750 instead of $11,750
And, we know that
Total assets = Total liabilities + owners equity
So, Total assets = $44,750
Now the equipment is
= Total assets - total current assets - land + accumulated depreciation of an equipment
= $44,750 - $19,800 - $15,000 + $1,550
= $11,500

At the end of the year, the partnership distributed $15,000 of cash to Victoria. Also, the partnership allocated $20,000 of recourse debt and $35,000 of nonrecourse debt to Victoria. What is Victoria's ending capital account balance determined using the "tax basis" method?
Answer:
Victoria's ending capital a/c = $93,000
Explanation:
Given:
Opening account balance = $90,000
Victoria contribution = $30,000
Share in loss = $12,000
Distribution at end = $15,000
Computation of Victoria's ending capital a/c .
Victoria's ending capital a/c = Opening account balance + Victoria contribution - Share in loss - Distribution at end
= $90,000 + $30,000 - $12,000 - $15,000
= $93000

A corporation has issued 10% convertible debentures, convertible into 40 shares of common stock. The current market price of the common stock is $25.25. If the bonds are trading at 5 points above parity, they are priced at:
Answer:
$1,060.5
Explanation:
A corporation has issued 10% convertible debentures, convertible into 40 shares of common stock. The current market price of the common stock is $25.25. If the bonds are trading at 5 points above parity, they are priced at:
Parity price refers to the concept of comparing two assets equal in value
The bond is convertible into 40 shares of common stock. The parity price is bond market value / 40 shares.
Parity = Equal value, hence one bond value = one share value x 40 shares
Bond value 25.25 x 40 = $1,010
Therefore 5 points above parity = 1.05 x 1,010 = $1,060.5
Answer: 106
Explanation:
Here, we are looking at the price it becomes profitable for investors to convert their bonds into common stock.
Using Parity pricing, which allows us to make comparison between stock of equal value,
Current market price of common stock =$25. 25
Stock is convertible in 40 shares of stock, Therefore,
Parity price of bond = current price * number of shares
Parity price = 25.25 * 40 = $1010
Trading point = 5
1 point equivalent to $10
5 points = $50
This sums up to;
$1,010 + $50 = $1,060
Therefore, price per bond = 106
New oak tables are normal goods. What would happen to the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for oak tables if the price of maple tables rises, the price of oak wood rises, more buyers enter the market for oak tables, and the price of the glue used in the production of the new oak tables increased?
Answer:
Price will RISE, and the effect on quantity is ambiguous.
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that this would most likely cause prices to rise, while the effect on quantity is ambigious, meaning that it depends on many different factors and point of views. Mainly prices will rise due to all the material costs needed in the production of oak tables rising.
Factors such as a rise in maple table prices, more buyers, increased costs of oak wood, and glue can affect the equilibrium price and quantity of oak tables, with the market eventually reaching a new equilibrium based on supply and demand dynamics.
When analyzing the impact of various factors on the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for oak tables, we consider both demand and supply side changes. The price of maple tables rising can increase the demand for oak tables since they are substitutes, leading to a rise in the equilibrium price and quantity of oak tables.
However, the increase in the price of oak wood and the glue used in production are supply side issues, and they would decrease supply, pushing the equilibrium price up and quantity down. The entrance of more buyers into the market for oak tables signifies an increase in demand, which again would push the equilibrium price and quantity up. Ultimately, the market will achieve a new equilibrium where the quantity demanded and quantity supplied are equal, but the exact effect on equilibrium price and quantity will depend on the relative magnitudes of these changes.

Holding Cost is also given in percentage of material price and is calculate by multiplying it with the material unit cost to calculate the holding cost per unit per year.
So the option E is correct.

GDP is the: dollar amount of all sales made in the economy in one year. total market value of all final goods and services produced in an economy in one year. total accumulated wealth of an economy. volume of all dollar transactions made in an economy in one year.
Answer: total market value of all final goods and services produced in an economy in one year.
Explanation:
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is simply the total market value of the FINAL goods and services produced in a country in a period, usually a year.
The term FINAL here is very important because if intermediate goods were counted then it would be OVERSTATED.
For example, if Toyota makes cars from the iron it buys from Parrain Mining, the figure that will be used to calculate GDP will be the Car itself and not the amount the Iron from Parrain cost.
Answer:
total market value of all final goods and services produced in an economy in one year.
Explanation:
The gross domestic product (GDP) is the market value of all the final and legal products and services produced during a year within a country.
The components of the GDP = private consumption + private investment + government spending + net exports (exports - imports)
Final products and services excludes intermediate goods and services, and goods and services produced and consumed by the same household, e.g. vegetables grown in the backyard, or if you paint your own house.
Legal refers to taxable products and services, e.g. illegal drugs are not included, black market goods and services aren't included.

By comparing the opportunity cost of producing cheese in the two countries, you can tell that
Answer:
Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese
Explanation:
Suppose that Italy and Sweden both produce rye and cheese.
Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 5 bushels of rye while Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 10 bushels of rye.
By comparing the opportunity cost of producing cheese in the two countries, you can tell that Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese because it has a lower opportunity cost (as a matter of fact half the cost) in comparison with Sweden.
Comparative advantage is an economic term that refers to an economy's ability to produce goods and services at a lower opportunity cost than that of trade partners

If Weymouth pays the invoice within the discount period, Maple Grove will record a debit to Cash in the amount of:_______.A. $5,100.B. $100.C. $5,000.D. $4,900.
Answer: D) $4,900
Explanation:
The answer to the question is that Maple Grove will record a debit to Cash in the amount of $4,900 if Weymouth pays the invoice within the discount period. This is based on the credit terms of 2/10, n/30.
Option D is correct
Explanation:The question revolves around understanding credit terms and discounts in business transactions. In this case, Weymouth Construction is given a credit term of 2/10, n/30 by Maple Grove Legal Association. This means that Weymouth has a 2% discount if it pays within 10 days ('2/10'), and the net amount is due within 30 days ('n/30').
If Weymouth pays within the discount period, it will pay 2% less than $5,000. We calculate this by multiplying 5000 by 2% which gives us $100. Therefore, Weymouth will pay Maple Grove $5,000 - $100 = $4,900.
Hence, if Weymouth pays the invoice within the discount period, Maple Grove will record a debit to Cash in the amount of $4,900 (Option D).

At the start of the month, Oak Inc. had 58,000 units of beginning work in process that were 65% complete. Over the course of the month, the firm completed and transferred out 208,900 units, and at the end of the month, it had 59,400 units in ending work in process that were 70% complete. In comparison, Maple Inc. began the month with 61,200 units of beginning work in process that were 60% complete. Over the course of the month, the firm completed and transferred out 210,500 units, and at the end of the month, it had 52,400 units in ending work in process that were 90% complete. Both firms add 40% of materials at the beginning of the process and the remaining 60% when the units are 70% complete. Both firms also add 25% of conversion costs at the beginning of the process and the remaining 75% when the units are 90% complete. According to these figures, Oak has ________ equivalent units of production for materials and ________ equivalent units of production for conversion costs than Maple.
a. more ; fewer
b. fewer; fewer
c. fewer; more
d. more; more
can someone explain this question for me?
According to these figures, Oak has more equivalent units of production for materials and fewer equivalent units of production for conversion costs than Maple.
Explanation:
The equivalent production unit is an indication of a manufacturer's work on the produced units, which are partially finished at the close of the accounting period. In addition the completely loaded units and the partially filled units are entirely fitted out.
The number of partially completed units x percentage of completion = equivalent units of production.
Oak : 58,000 x 65% = 37,700
Oak Equivalent units of production = 37,700
Maple: 61,200 x 60% = 36,600
Maple Equivalent units of production = 36,600
So, Oak has more equivalent units of production for materials and fewer equivalent units of production for conversion costs than Maple.
