Answer:
Unitary cost= $5.44
Explanation:
The annual production and sales level of Product B2 is 23,710 units.
First, we need to calculate the activities rates:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 62,000/ (2,600 + 6,160)= $7.08 per unit of activity
Activity 2= 77,000/ (6,200 + 8,600)= $5.20 per unit of activity
Activity 3= 108,000 / (3,640 + 2,200)= $18.49 per unit of activity
Now, we allocate costs to Product B1:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 7.08*6,160= 43,612.8
Activity 2= 5.20*8,600= 44,720
Activity 3= 18.49*2,200= 40,678
Total allocated costs= $129,010.8
Finally, the unitary cost:
Unitary cost= 129,010.8/23,710= $5.44

The real risk-free rate of interest, k*, is 4 percent, and it is expected to remain constant over time. Inflation is expected to be 2 percent per year for the next four years, after which time inflation is expected to remain at a constant rate of 5 percent per year. The maturity risk premium is 0% for securities with maturities of 1 year or less, 0.1% in year 2, and increases by 0.1% per year thereafter. What is the yield on a 10-year Treasury bond
Answer:
8.3%
Explanation:
Real risk - free rate of interest ( k* ) = 4%
Inflation for next four ( 4 ) years = 2% per year
Inflation rate after four years = 5%
maturity risk premium = 0.1 ( t - 1 )%
Determine Yield on a 10-year Treasury bond
t = bond's maturity
Yield = Real risk - free rate + maturity risk premium + inflation rate
Inflation rate for 10 years = ( 4 + 30 ) / 10 ) % = 3.4%
Yield = 4% + 0.1(10- 1)% + 3.4
= 4% + 0.9% + 3.4%
= 8.3%
The Assembly Department started the month with 24,800 units in its beginning work in process inventory. An additional 309,800 units were transferred in from the prior department during the month to begin processing in the Assembly Department. There were 29,800 units completed and transferred to the next processing department during the month. How many units were in its ending work in process inventory? a. 314,800 b. 334,600 c. 304,800 d. 364,400
Answer:
c. 304,800
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How many units were in its ending work in process inventory
Using this formula
Ending work in process inventory Units= Beginning work in process inventory Units + Units started into production or transferred in - Units in ending work in process inventory
Let plug in the formula
Ending work in process inventory Units= 24,800 + 309,800 - 29,800
Ending work in process inventory Units = 304,800
Therefore How many units were in its ending work in process inventory is 304,800

Payroll subject to the state unemployment taxes = $22,000
2. Total payroll = $820,000
3. FICA taxes in payroll = $61,500
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.
The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:
1. Determine the payroll amount subject to federal and state unemployment taxes in this payroll.
Payroll subject to the federal unemployment taxes = Federal unemployment tax payable / Federal unemployment tax rates = 176 / 0.8% = $22,000
Payroll subject to the state unemployment taxes = State unemployment tax payable / State unemployment tax rates = 1,188 / 5.4% = $22,000
2. What is the total payroll for Copperfield and Company shown in these journal entries?
Total payroll = Salaries Expense + Wages Expense = 647,800 + $172,200 = $820,000

The price of Microsoft is $30 per share and that of Apple is $58 per share. The price of Microsoft increases to $39 per share after one year and to $42 after two years. Also, shares of Apple increase to $66 after one year and to $71 after two years. If your portfolio comprises 100 shares of each security, what is your portfolio return over year 1 and year 2? Assume no dividends are paid.
A) 19.32%, 7.62%
B) 28.01%, 8.38%
C) 23.18%, 11.43%
D) 22.22%, 13.71%
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The total portoflio value at the time of purchase will be:
= (100 × $30) + (100 × $58)
= $3000 + $5800
= $8800
Total Portoflio Value after 1 Year will be:
= (100 × $39) + (100 × $66)
= $3900 + $6600
= $10500
Total Portoflio Value after Year 2 will be:
= (100 × $42) + (100 × $71)
= $4200 + $7100
= $11300
Portfolio Return (Year 1) will now be:
= (10500 - 8800)/8800 × 100
= 1700/8800 × 100
= 19.32%
Portfolio Return (Year 2) will be:
= (11300 - 10500)/10500 × 100
= 800/10500 × 100
= 7.62%

External finance needed = Total Assets - Total Liabilities = = $12,610 - $10,448 = $2,088
The information below applies to a competitive firm that sells its output for $40 per unit.
• When the firm produces and sells 150 units of output, its average total cost is $24.50.
• When the firm produces and sells 151 units of output, its average total cost is $24.55.
How does the firm's marginal revenue (MR) compare to its marginal cost (MC) when it increases its output from 150 units to 151 units?
a. MR exceeds MC by $7.95.
b. MR exceeds MC by $11.05.
c. MC exceeds MR by $11.05.
d. MC exceeds MR by $13.50.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Marginal cost is the change in total cost when output is increased by 1 unit
total cost = average cost x quantity
Marginal cost = (151 x 24.55) - (150 x 24.50) = 32.05

you are planning for your retirement and have decided the following: you will retire in 35 years and would like to have $8,000 per month as retirement income for 30 years of retirement. you have access to an account that earns a 7% rate of return. a. how much will you need to have when you retire to be able to withdraw the desired $8,000 per month during your years of retirement
Answer:
Amount needed to have in account = 99272
Explanation:
Below are the calculations:
Annual income after retirement, annuity = $8000
The time period or the retirement life = 30 years
The Interest rate earned by account = 7%
The amount in the account at the time of retirement = Annuity (P/A, r, n)
The amount in the account at the time of retirement = 8000 (P/A, 7%, 30)
The amount in the account at the time of retirement = 8000 x 12.409
The amount in the account at the time of retirement = 99272
Oltman Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. The Corporation has provided the following estimated costs for next year:
Direct materials $25,000
Direct labor $22,000
Advertising expense $15,000
Rent on factory building $13,500
Sales salaries $28,000
Depreciation on factory equipment $6,500
Indirect materials $10,000
Insurance on factory equipment $12,000
Oltman estimated that 40,000 direct labor-hours and 20,000 machine-hours would be worked during the year. The predetermined overhead rate per machine-hour will be:___________
a) $1.05 per machine hour
b) $1.00 per machine hour
c) $2.10 per machine hour
d) $1.60 per machine hour
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $2.1 per machine hour
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the estimated total overhead:
Total estimated overhead= Rent on factory building + Depreciation on factory equipment + Indirect materials + Insurance on factory equipment
Total estimated overhead= 13,500 + 6,500 + 10,000 + 12,000
Total estimated overhead= $42,000
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 42,000 / 20,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $2.1 per machine hour
