Answer:

40%

Explanation:

The computation of the return on equity is shown below:

= (Net income - interest expense) ÷ (weightage average of common​ stockholders' equity)

where,

Weightage average of common​ stockholders' equity equals to

= (Total common​ stockholders' equity at the beginning of the year + Total common​ stockholders' equity at the end of the year) ÷ 2

= ($410,000 + $290,000) ÷ 2

= $350,000

And, the other items values would remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equal to

= ($170,000 - $30,000) ÷ ($350,000)

= 40%

Pooler Corporation is working on its direct labor budget for the next two months. Each unit of output requires 0.15 direct labor
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

$13,335

Explanation:

Required production in units for April and May are 6,500 units and 6,200 units respectively.

Direct labor hours needed is 0.15 for both months.

Total direct labor hours needed for each month would be;

April

= 6,500 units × 0.15

= 975

May

=6,200 units × 0.15

= 930

Direct labor rate per hour for each months is $7

Total direct labor cost for April would be;

= $7 × 975

= $6,825

Total direct labor cost for May would be;

= $7 × 930

= $6,510

Therefore, total direct labor cost for both months April and May would be;

= $6,825 + $6,510

= $13,335

Bill and Brenda bought their home for $150,000. They made $50,000 of improvements. They sold the home for $450,000 and paid $30,
adell [148]

Answer:

Explanation:

Capital gains tax is a tax that is levied on the profit made from the sale of a non-inventory asset. The most common sources of capital gains are through the sale of bonds, precious metals, stocks, property, and real estate.

The IRS typically allows an exclusion of up to: $250,000 of capital gains on real estate for a single person and $500,000 of capital gains on real estate for a married couple who are filing jointly.

To find the amount on which they pay capital gains:

The adjusted basis is $200,000 which is:

Initial cost of buying the house for $150,000, plus cost of improvements $50,000.

The sales price of $450,000 minus the selling expenses which cost $30,000.

The amount realized is therefore:

$450,000 - $30,000 = $420,000.

Note: They will receive an exclusion of $500,000 because they are filing jointly. So Bill and Brenda will not pay any capital gains tax.

On May 3, 2020, Concord Company consigned 80 freezers, costing $540 each, to Remmers Company. The cost of shipping the freezers
NeX [460]

Answer:

a) $22,010

b) $3,780

c) $25,790

Explanation:

a) In calculating the value of inventory still left, the total value needs to be calculated first,

= (80 freezers * $540) + $820 ( transport fees)

= 43,200 + 820

= $44,020

40 out of 80 freezers have not been sold so,

= 40/80 * 44,020

= $22,010

b) In calculating the profit, subtract the expenses from the sales

Sales = 40 * 700

= $28,000

= 28,000 - Cost of refrigerators - commission of 6% of sales - advertising - installation

= 28,000 - 22,010 - (28,000*0.06) - 180 - 350

= $3,780

c) The amount remitted by the consignor will be,

= Sales - commission - advertising - installation

= 28,000 - (28,000 * 0.06) - 180 - 350

= $25,790

(I) Because interest rates on Treasury bills are more volatile than rates on long-term securities, the return on short-term Trea
kherson [118]

Answer:

B) (I) is false, (II) true.

Explanation:

Even though short term rates (Treasury bills) are much more volatile than long term rates (Treasury bonds), it is normal that the rate of return on Treasury bills is lower than the rate of return on Treasury bonds. Some of the reasons why Treasury bills have such a low rate of return is that they are very liquid investments and they don't pay any periodic interest.
