Komok [63]

Answer:

The answer is: B) Neither Jeff nor Robert has any recognized gain or loss.

Explanation:

Both Jeff and Robert are contributing different assets to form KS Ventures Corporation. Jeff will transfer property at its fair market value ($90,000) and Robert will also transfer property at fair market value ($70,000) plus $20,000 in cash to equal Jeff's contribution.

Wooten & McMahon Enterprises produces a product with the following per-unit costs: Direct materials $13.00 Direct labor 8.80

Setler [38]

Answer:

b.$5,912.50

Explanation:

The computation of the operating income is shown below:

= Sales - Direct materials cost - Direct labor cost - Manufacturing overhead cost - Total selling and administrative expense

where,

Sales = Number of units × selling price per unit

= 825 units × $74.80

= $61,710

Direct materials cost = Number of units × Direct materials per unit

= 825 units × $13

= $10,725

Direct labor cost = Number of units × Direct labor per unit

= 825 units × $13

= $7,260

Manufacturing overhead cost = Number of units × Manufacturing overhead per unit

= 825 units × $16.50

= $13,612.50

And, the Total selling and administrative expense is $24,200

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would equal to

= $61,710 - $10,725 - $7,260 - $13,612.50 - $24,200

= $5,912.50

Wildhorse Corporation enters into a 6-year lease of equipment on December 31, 2019, which requires 6 annual payments of $40,100

olga55 [171]

Answer:

31-Dec-19

Dr. Lease receivables $ 180,498

Cr. Sales revenue $180,498

Dr. Cost of goods sold $ 170,000

Cr. Inventory $ 170,000

Explanation:

The lease is recorded on the present value of all the payment to be made in the future.

We will use the present value of annuity formula

Present value of Lease = P [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ]

where

P = annual payment = $40,100

r = implicit rate = 11%

n = numbers of payments = 6 payments

Placing values in the formula

PV of Lease = $40,100 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 11% )^-6 ) / 11% ] = $169,645

Now calculate the present value of guarantee residual value

PV of guarantee residual value = $20,300 x ( 1 + 11%)^-6 = $10,853

Fair value of lease = Present value of Lease payment + Present value of guarantee residual value

Fair value of lease = $169,645 + $10,853 = $180,498

Cost of equipment will be recorded in the cost of goods sold and Inventory as well.

We will pass two separate journal entries first to record the lease receivable and second to record the cost of the equipment.

Explain how a Target price for farm crops is an example of a price floor.

12345 [234]

Answer: A target price for farm crops is an example of price floor because it’s fixed ahead of harvests with the interest of farmers in mind.

Explanation: A quick definition of both concepts would be of help. A price floor is usually fixed by government legislation and it ensures that the price of a commodity or service does not fall below a certain minimum. In the case of farm crops, a floor price makes sure that the farmers are guaranteed a level of profit in case there is poor harvest for any reason whatsoever. The price floor must be fixed above the equilibrium price for this to be effective.

A target price is an expectation of the future price of commodities or services, and hence prices are fixed ahead of the harvest in the case of farm crops. This is so because as explained earlier, future conditions might change and become unfavorable, therefore making the current market price unprofitable for farmers. If for example, a sack of potatoes currently sells for $30, the government may fix the price floor ahead of the harvest season at $45 per sack. This implies that after harvesting farmers can still sell at $30. However if the harvest turns out to be bad perhaps due to natural disasters, pests or fungal attacks, etc, then the farmers can go ahead and sell at $45 and possibly higher. No farmer is allowed to sell below $45 (since that is the ‘floor’). That way, farmers would still have some profit guaranteed and would be encouraged to remain in the farming business.

Economists usually assume that production is subject to increasing opportunity costs because: a. higher production usually resul

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

d. not all resources are equally suited to producing every good.

Explanation:

The rule of increasing cost of opportunity is the principle that, when you keep increasing the development of one item, the cost of opportunity of creating the next unit rises. It occurs just as you redistribute resources to create one product which was ideally suited to create the initial product.
