Answer:
$26,500 decrease
Explanation:
The total increase or decrease in net income by replacing the current machine with the new machine = Saving in variable manufacturing costs + Sale value of old machine - Purchase price of new machine
= ($19,900*4) + $22,900 - $129,000
= $79,600 + $22,900 - $129,000
= $26,500 decrease

For bonds issued 2019, the taxpayer must amortize bond premium using which of the following methods?
a. Straight-Line Method
b. Constant Yield Method
c. Activity Depreciation Method
d. Double Declining Balance
Answer:
For bonds issued 2019, the taxpayer must amortize bond premium using the following method:
a. Straight-Line Method.
Explanation:
The premium paid by the taxpayer for a bond represents part of the cost basis of the bond. The bond premium can be tax-deductible at a rate spread out (amortized) over the bond's lifespan. The straight-line method for bond premium amortization is considered to be a simpler method than the effective interest amortization method. While the straight-line amortization divides the bond's total premium over the remaining payment periods, the effective interest, which is more complicated, computes some unique values at all points during the amortization process.

Pacifica Industrial Products Corporation makes two products, Product H and Product L. Product H is expected to sell 40,000 units next year and Product L is expected to sell 8,000 units. A unit of either product requires 0.4 direct labor-hours. The company's total manufacturing overhead for the year is expected to be $1,632,000.
Required: 1-a. The company currently applies manufacturing overhead to products using direct labor-hours as the allocation base. If this method is followed, how much overhead cost per unit would be applied to each product?
Product H Product L
Overhead cost per unit
1-b. Compute the total amount of overhead cost that would be applied to each product
Product H Product L Total
Total overhead cost
Answer:
1a. Product H Overhead cost per unit = [$85 * 0.4] = $34.00
Product L Overhead cost per unit = [$85 * 0.4] = $34.00
Predetermined overhead application rate = Estimated total manufacturing overheads / Total direct Labor hours
Predetermined overhead application rate = $1632000 / {[40000 units * 0.4]+[8000 units * 0.4]}
Predetermined overhead application rate = $1632000 / 19200 direct labor hours
Predetermined overhead application rate = $85 per direct labor hour

An auto repair shop orders cleaning rags in batches of 160 boxes. This inventory is depleted at a constant rate and new rags are ordered to arrive exactly when the on-hand inventory of rags reaches zero boxes. What is the average inventory level over time?
Answer:
80
Explanation:
Given that number of orders = 160 boxes , On hand inventory = 0
The formula for Average inventory level is given below:
Average inventory level = (Number of orders + On hand inventory) / 2
Average inventory level = 160 + 0 / 2
Average inventory level = 160 / 2
Average inventory level = 80
Therefore, the average inventory level over time is 80
How successful is ABC Company relative to the industry average and leaders in the small specialty retail store industry? Write two paragraphs or more. Include ratios found in the IBIS database to support your conclusion.
Answer: The first ratio, which is the current ratio have them sitting at 5.5 when the average for 2016-2017 was 1.7
Explanation:
From doing three ratios, ABC are doing well above average when it comes to the ratios carried out. The first ratio, which is the current ratio have them sitting at 5.5 when the average for 2016-2017 was 1.7 this doesn't mean they are worth meeting up with their target yet but it would require more loans and them building on what they currently have. This ratio informs them on their stand on taking more loans or not.
With an average of 2.0 in the 2016-2017 year, they are at a 1.2. The lower this ratio is the more debt they can put themselves in and not have to worry about if they could pay it off or not
What is the coupon rate for a bond with 3 years until maturity, a price of $1,053.46, and a yield to maturity of 6%
Answer:
8%
Explanation:
we can use the approximate yield to maturity formula to calculate the coupon rate:
YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value) / n]} / [(face value + market value) / 2]
0.06 = {coupon + [(1,000 - 1,053.46) / 3]} / [(1,000 + 1,053.46) / 2]
0.06 x 1,026.73 = coupon - 17.82
61.6038 + 17.82 = coupon
79.42 = coupon
since this is just an approximation, I would guess that the coupon rate is 8%, instead of 7.94%
You own Bond B and are concerned about interest rates increasing soon. You have chosen Bond H to hedge your B risk. The greater H's dv01:__________.a) the more of it you need to buyb) the more of it you need to sell shortc) the less of it you need to buyd) the less of it you need to sell short
Answer:
The greater H's dv01:__________

A corporation purchases 20 000 shares of its own $20 par common stock for $35 per share, recording it at cost. What will be the effect on total stockholders' equity?A. Increase by $400,000.B. Increase by $700,000.C. Decrease by $400,000.D. Decrease by $700,000.
Answer:
D. Decrease by $700,000.
Explanation:
The computation of the effect on the total stockholder equity is as follows
Given that
Number of shares is 20,000
Per share $35 recorded at a cost
Own shares at par is $20
As we know that if we purchased our own stock so it would be called as a treasury stock and the same is to be deducted from the shareholder equity as it is a contra equity account that reduce the equity balance
Now the effect would be
= 20,000 shares × $35
= $700,000
Hence, it is decreased by $700,000

Schister Systems uses the following data in its Cost-Volume-Profit analyses: Total Sales $ 335,000 Variable expenses 184,250 Contribution margin 150,750 Fixed expenses 107,000 Net operating income $ 43,750 What is total contribution margin if sales volume increases by 20%
Answer:
New contribution margin = $180,900
Explanation:
Given:
Total Sales = $335,000
Variable expenses = $184,250
Contribution margin = $150,750
Fixed expenses = $107,000
Net operating income = $43,750
Find:
New contribution margin if sales volume increases by 20%
Computation:
New sales = 335,000 x (1+20%)
New sales = $402,000
New variable expenses = $184,250 x (1+20%)
New variable expenses = $221,100
New contribution margin = New sales - New variable expenses
New contribution margin = $402,000 - $221,100
New contribution margin = $180,900
