The current assets should be recorded at $102,000, and the noncurrent assets should be recorded at $153,000. D. A gain of $45,000 should be recorded.
Answers
Answer:
D. A gain of $45,000 should be recorded.
Explanation:
The computation is shown below
Fair value difference is
= Total assets - book & fair value of liabilities - net assets purchased
= $300,000 - $30,000 - $225,000
= $270,000 - $225,000
= $45,000
hence, the correct option is d. $45,000 and the same is to be considered

Toot! TiX Total Users 16,700 23,100 39,800 Revenues $ 2,100,000 $ 1,880,000 $ 3,980,000 Engineering hours 13,600 9,600 23,200 Engineering cost $ 330,000 $ 450,000 $ 780,000 Administrative costs $ 1,671,600 Required: a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate used to apply administrative costs to the two services assuming SMI uses the revenue to allocate administrative costs. b. Based on the rates computed in requirement (a), what is the profit for each service?
Answers
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the revenue proportion:
Toot!= 2,100,000/3,980,000= 0.53
TiX= 1,880,000/3,980,000= 0.47
Now, we can allocate administrative costs:
Toot!= 0.53*1,671,600= $885,948
TiX= 0.47*1,671,600= $785,652
Finally, the total, and unitary profit per product:
Toot!:
Revenues= 2,100,000
Engineering cost= (330,000)
Administrative costs= (885,948)
Total profit= $884,052
Unitary profit= 884,052/16,700= $52.937
TiX:
Revenues= 1,880,000
Engineering cost= (450,000)
Administrative costs= (785,652)
Total profit= $644,348
Unitary profit= 644,348/23,100= $27.894

Free cash flow is the cash flow available to all the providers of capital of a firm
FCF = EBIT ( 1 - Tax rate) + deprecation - fixed capital - working capital
Tax rate = $326,025 / $1,725,000 = 18.9%
$1,725,000(1 - 0.189) + $86,250 - $500,000 - ( $545,000 - $97,000)

Think of a business idea that offers opportunity for customer credit. Assuming that you want to adopt this idea, what criteria would you consider to offer a consumer credit?
Answers
Answer:
an example for a company that offers back customers credit is Jimmy Johns, they have online rewards that you can sign up with you or phone number or online to earn points for your meals. When you sign up they promote you to go buy a sandwich for your first free sandwich, after that every time you come back and buy something you will be racking up points for free things like sandwiches, chips, cookies, pickles, and drinks.They also have special offers like on your birthday you get a free sub (and after you sign up). If I wanted to do something similar with my business I make would make a rewards systems where you earn points for discounts.
Explanation:
Identify a business idea with which you can proceed. For example, you start a business that designs and creates landscaping for customers (front garden space, back patio, and so on).
This type of business provides opportunity for consumer credit, as most people would not want to pay a huge amount upfront in cash or even through credit cards.
Since the only other way is to offer credit facility, you will have to make a list of questions. You will then have to research the customer’s credit worthiness.
Check for the customer’s credit rating with the credit- and information-management companies, such as TransUnion or Equifax.
Check for the customers’ current financial positions. You can do so by finding out whether they have a secure job or a well-performing business, number of earning members in the family, and so on.
Depending on the information you acquire, you may decide either to offer complete credit, with a relatively shorter credit period, or only offer a certain percentage of credit spread across a wider credit period.
Journalize the following business transactions in general journal form. Identify each transaction by number. You may omit explanations of the transaction. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)

Fuzzy Button Clothing Company reported sales of $820,000 at the end of last year; but this year, sales are expected to grow by 10%. Fuzzy Button expects to maintain its current profit margin of 23% and dividend payout ratio of 10%. The firm’s total assets equaled $500,000 and were operated at full capacity. Fuzzy Button’s balance sheet shows the following current liabilities: accounts payable of $65,000, notes payable of $25,000, and accrued liabilities of $60,000. Based on the AFN (Additional Funds Needed) equation, what is the firm’s AFN for the coming year? -$149,214 -$164,135 -$186,518 -$134,293
Answers
Answer:
-$149,214
Explanation:
EFN = (A/S) x (Δ Sales) - (L/S) x (Δ Sales) - (PM x FS x (1-d))
A/S = assets / sales = 500,000 / 820,000 = 0.60976
ΔSales = $820,00 x 10% = $82,000
L/S = liabilities / sales = 125,000 / 820,000 = 0.15244
PM = profit margin = 23%
FS = forecasted sales = $902,000
1 - d = 1 - 10% = 0.9
EFN = (0.60976 x $82,000) - (0.15244 x $82,000) - ($902,000 x 0.23 x 0.9) = $ 50,000 - $12,500 - $186,714 = -$149,214

What is Flint Enterprise's income under variable costing?
Answers
Answer:
Net operating income= $1,563,000
Explanation:
The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).
First, we need to calculate the total variable cost:
Total variable cost= (30 + 15 + 13)*20,000 + 77,000= 1,237,000
Now, we can determine the net operating income:
Sales= 20,000*170= 3,400,000
Total variable cost= (1,237,000)
Contribution margin= 2,163,000
Fixed overhead= (500,000)
Fixed General and Administrative Costs= (100,000)
Net operating income= 1,563,000

Answers
Answer:
Total savings = $361,341 - $342,910 = $18,431, but $197,500 must be left in the corporation.
Explanation:
using the 2020 tax schedule, their current tax liability is:
$94,735 + [35% x ($450,000 - $414,700)] = $107,090
after tax income = $450,000 - $107,090 = $342,910
if we consider the business a corporation:
$250,000 x 21% = $52,500
after tax income = $197,500
plus the $200,000 in ordinary income:
$29,211 + [24% x ($200,000 - $171,050)] = $36,159
after tax income = $163,841
total after tax income = $197,500 + $163,841 = $361,341
Total savings = $361,341 - $342,910 = $18,431, but $197,500 must be left in the corporation.

Answers
Answer:
$479.11
Explanation:
Loan + Accrued interest (1000*1.07^10) = 1,967.15
PMT = P *r*(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n - 1)
PMT=Monthly payment , P = Principal=1967.15 , r = interest rate=0.07,n=number of payment =5
PMT=1967.15*.07*(1+.07)^5/((1+.07)^5 – 1)

Answers
Answer:
$25.5090,000 units140,000 unitsExplanation:
1. Current contribution margin ratio
= (Selling price - Variable cost)/ Selling price
= (25 - 19.8) / 25
= 0.208
New Direct labor = 5.0 * ( 1 + 8%)
= $5.40
New variable cost = 19.8 + 0.4 = $20.20
To maintain 0.208
0.208 = (Selling price - 20.20) / Selling price
0.208 * Price = Price - 20.20
0.208Price - Price = -20.20
-0.792Price = -20.20
Price = -20.20/-0.792
Price = $25.50
2. Breakeven = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin
Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost
= 25 - 19.8
= $5.20
= 468,000/5.2
= 90,000 units
3. To earn $260,000;

Houston repeatedly promised his daughter, Allyson, that he would pay one-half of the costs for Allyson to attend a private, historically African-American college or university. Relying on this promise, Allyson applied to and was accepted into Clark Atlanta University. Houston reiterated this promise after Allyson’s acceptance and specifically agreed to pay one-half of the costs of her tuition, room, board, books, and other expenses at Clark (less certain scholarship, work study, and grant monies). Allyson relied on this reiterated promise and, forgoing opportunities to apply to and enroll in other colleges or universities of significantly less cost, enrolled in Clark. Houston nevertheless refused to honor his commitment. Allyson sued her father alleging promissory estoppel. Did she have a good promissory estoppels claim?
Answers
Yes, Allyson has a good promissory estoppel claim against her father, Houston. Promissory estoppel is a legal doctrine that allows a party to enforce a promise, even if there is no valid contract, if certain elements are met. Considering these elements, Allyson has a strong promissory estoppel claim against her father, Houston, as she fulfilled the requirements necessary to invoke this legal doctrine.
These elements are:
1. A clear and definite promise: In this case, Houston repeatedly promised Allyson that he would pay one-half of the costs for her education at a private, historically African-American college or university. Houston even reiterated this promise after Allyson's acceptance into Clark Atlanta University, specifically agreeing to pay one-half of her tuition, room, board, books, and other expenses.
2. Reasonable and justifiable reliance: Allyson relied on her father's promise by applying to and enrolling in Clark Atlanta University, forgoing opportunities to apply to and enroll in other colleges or universities of significantly less cost. Her reliance on her father's promise was reasonable and justifiable given the specific agreement they had regarding the financial support for her education.
3. Detrimental reliance: Allyson suffered a detriment by forgoing other opportunities and enrolling in Clark Atlanta University based on her father's promise. This detriment is evidenced by the fact that she incurred the costs of tuition, room, board, books, and other expenses at Clark, which she would not have incurred if she had chosen a less expensive option.
4. Injustice without enforcement: It would be unjust for Houston to refuse to honor his commitment after Allyson reasonably relied on his promise and suffered a detriment. Promissory estoppel exists to prevent such injustices and to hold parties accountable for their promises, even in the absence of a formal contract.

Diversification to diversify shareholders investments Increasing the size of the company.The Swatch Group and Cultural Uniqueness
Summary
This case explores the Swatch Group and the influence of Swatch on culture. Founded in 1983 by Nicolas Hayek, Swatch is now the world’s biggest watch maker. The company not only produces finished watches, it also produces jewelry, watch movements, and watch components. Indeed, Swatch Group supplies nearly everything used in the production of its 18 individual brands that includes icons like Omega and Harry Winston as well as more mainstream options like Tissot and Longines.
In addition to its own line of products, Swatch Group sells watch components to third-party watchmakers and produces parts used for sport event timing. Swatch employs about 37,000 people across 37 global subsidiaries. With some 40 percent of the company still under the control of the Hayek family, Swatch focuses on diversity and culture.
The Swatch Revolution combines Swiss excellence in watchmaking with quirky affordable plastic components. Swatch promotes its watches as a means of speaking without words. Wearers of Swatch watches are telling more than just time, they are telling the world something about themselves. Swatch even suggests that wearers share their individuality and preferences on Instagram by tagging #MySwatch.
Discussion Questions
1. With the Hayek family controlling nearly 40 percent of The Swatch Group, how do you think the family’s influence impacts the corporate culture in the company? What about the company’s international culture being impacted by the Hayek family?
2. Many of the Swatch brands have become cultural icons among a strong core following of customers in the global marketplace. Some even talk about the "Swatch Revolution" that began when Nicolas Hayek founded the company. Why do you think Swatch has such a strong cultural following?
3. As mentioned, Swatch wants you to create your own unique way of accessorizing through its Swatch watch. Is a watch a way to show who a person is culturally? Does a watch get embedded into a person’s culture? Can a watch create a cultural image?

Including respect to something like the Hayek family, which also owns approximately or more nearly 40 percent of the Swatch Community, I conclude that by acknowledging their construction companies as family members, the relatives seem to have an impact on the concept of the corporate community. The workers should operate collectively, independently of their employment, as a team. For the Swatch Group, this creates a powerful organizational environment which put suitable implemented in a variety of fields.Family beliefs that influence this entire corporation will affect the international culture of the firm. The unlikelihood's in national culture, however, affect the lack of common ideals and significance. Inside the digital economy, this limits communication, trust, and knowledgeable contributors.(2)
The major cultural monitoring can be explained by the mixture of technology as well as creativity that has rooted the Swatch Culture through its product. And perhaps even developments in branding and ads, the Swatch concept relies on reference implementation, automation, and assembly technology. It began with a high-tech as well as inexpensive watch that those of us who could accommodate.Access to affordable was indeed the primary factor for the market success of the Swatch Company.

In symbolizing to person, a monitor plays an important part.

When individuals see that they are late, the concept of time can mean the commercial term "time is money," which does not matter where they would be close to the election. I don't understand why, however according to oneself, I'm open to the culture of a world when certain individuals sports smart watches. A community is a composite of a single group's principles, behaviors, vocabulary, and beliefs. All forms, such as political ideologies, traditions, language as well as standards, may represent representations of culture.As something of a national signifier for many conservative communities, Hamza seems to be the hand of the creator. A cultural icon shouldn't be seen as an icon and should therefore be scattered away from physically artificial norms. It has now become a symbol of money, strength, elevated status as well as fashionable that, however, according to me, it's not like every trait should have an essential cultural image.The answers are provided from the information given in the summary. Kindly follow the given answers below.
(1)
By identifying their construction companies as family members, the relatives appear to have an impact on the concept of the corporate community, especially when it comes to the Hayek family, which owns about or almost 40% of the Swatch Community. Workers should work together as a team, regardless of their employment status. This generates a robust organizational framework for the Swatch Group, which may be used in a variety of disciplines.
The worldwide culture of the company will be influenced by family ideas that influence the entire enterprise. National culture's improbabilities, on the other hand, have an impact on the lack of common ideals and significance. This hinders communication, trust, and informed contributors inside the digital economy.

The combination of technology and creativity that has planted the Swatch Culture through its product explains the major cultural monitoring.
The Swatch concept is based on reference implementation, automation, and assembly technologies, as well as possible improvements in branding and advertising. It all started with a high-tech but low-cost watch that those of us who could afford it could afford.
The Swatch Company's commercial success was largely due to its ability to provide cheap watches.

Ten years ago, you took out a $500,000 loan to buy a small apartment building. The loan had a 6.25% interst rate, 25-year amortization and, like all mortgage loans, had monthly payments and interest compounding. Currently, mortgage rates have declined so that you could refinance the current loan balance with a new loan having a 5.75% interest rate and 20 year amortization period. You intend to own the property for 5 more years and are considering refinancing. a) Calculate the payments on the original loan b) Calculate the current loan balance of the original loan c) Calculate the loan balance of the original loan 5 years from now. d) Using the current, lower interest rate, calculate the present value of the remaining original loan payments (i.e. the PV of 60 monthly loan payments and the repayment of the loan balance after 5 years) e) Assume you refinance, taking out a new loan at the lower rate with an initial balance equal to the current balance of the original loan (i.e. the new loan amount is your answer from part b). Calculate the payments on this new loan. f) Calculate the loan balance of the new loan 5 years from now.
Answers
Answer:
a) Calculate the payments on the original loan
monthly payment = principal / annuity factor
principal = $500,000
PV annuity factor, 300 periods, 0.52% = 151.59095
monthly payment = $500,000 / 151.59095 = $3,298.349934 ≈ $3,298.35
b) Calculate the current loan balance of the original loan
I prepared an amortization schedule on an excel spreadsheet. The balance after the 120th payment is $384,681.
c) Calculate the loan balance of the original loan 5 years from now.
the balance after the 180th payment = $293,760
d) Using the current, lower interest rate, calculate the present value of the remaining original loan payments
we can use the present value of an ordinary annuity formula to determine the present value of the remaining 60 payments (of $3,298.35 each) and the present value of $293,760.
PV of loan payments = $3,298.35 x 52.0404 (PV annuity factor, 0.479%, 60 periods) = $171,647.45
PV of principal = $293,760 / (1 + 5.75%)⁵ = $222,121.59
total = $393,769.04
e) Assume you refinance, taking out a new loan at the lower rate with an initial balance equal to the current balance of the original loan (i.e. the new loan amount is your answer from part b). Calculate the payments on this new loan.
monthly payment = principal / annuity factor
principal = $384,681PV annuity factor, 240 periods, 0.479% = 142.43323monthly payment = $384,681 / 142.43323 = $2,700.78
f) Calculate the loan balance of the new loan 5 years from now.
I prepared a second amortization schedule (modified amortization schedule). The principal balance after the 60th payment is $325,235

Answers
Answer:
34,000 units
Explanation:
The computation of the number of equivalent units of production for material costs is shown below:
= (Opening work in process × completion percentage) + (Completed units × completion percentage) + (ending work in process × completion percentage)
= (5000 × 0%) + ((31,000 - 5,000) × 100%) + (8000 × 100%)
= 34000 Units
Hence, the number of equivalent units for production is 34,000 units
