The production department of Priston Company has submitted the following forecast of units to be produced by quarter for the upc
Levart [38]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

1st Quarter -  2nd Quarter - 3rd Quarter - 4th Quarter

Units to be produced: 6,000 - 7,000 - 8,000 - 5,000

the beginning raw materials inventory= 3,600

Each unit requires three pounds of raw material that costs $2.50 per pound. Management desires to end each quarter with a raw materials inventory equal to 20% of the following quarter

I will assume that the requirements are the cost of direct material for each quarter.

<u />

<u>The direct material budget is calculated by the following formula:</u>

Direct material budget= direct material for production + ending inventory - beginning inventory

Q1:

Production= (6,000*3)*$2.5= $45,000

Ending inventory= [(7,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $10,500

Beginning inventory= (3,600*2.5)= (9,000)

Total= $46,500

Q2:

Production= (7,000*3)*$2.5= $52,500

Ending inventory= [(8,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $12,000

Beginning inventory= (10,500)

Total= $54,000

Q3:

Production= (8,000*3)*$2.5= $60,000

Ending inventory= [(5,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $7,500

Beginning inventory= (12,000)

Total= $55,500

Rayya Co. purchases a machine for $105,000 on January 1, 2019. Straight-line depreciation is taken each year for four years assu
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Entry to record the partial year’s depreciation on July 1, 2023:

Debit Depreciation Expense $7,500

Credit Accumulated depreciation account  $7,500

1) The machine is sold for $45,500 cash:

Debit Cash $45,500

Debit Accumulated depreciation account $67,500

Credit Gain on asset selling $8,000

Credit Machine asset $105,000

(2) The machine is sold for $25,000 cash

Debit Cash $25,000

Debit Accumulated depreciation account $67,500

Debit Loss on asset selling $12,500

Credit Machine asset $105,000

Explanation:

Rayya Co. uses straight-line depreciation method, Depreciation Expense each year is calculated by following formula:

Annual Depreciation Expense = (Cost of machine − Salvage Value )/Useful Life = ($105,000 - $0)/7 = $15,000

In 2023, the machine is used for 6 months (half year)

Depreciation Expense = $15,000/2 = $7,500

Entry to record the partial year’s depreciation on July 1, 2023:

Debit Depreciation Expense $7,500

Credit Accumulated depreciation account  $7,500

On July 1, 2023, Accumulated depreciation = $15,000 x 4 + $7,500 = $67,500

Carrying amount of the machine = $105,000 - $67,500 = $37,500

(1) The machine is sold for $45,500 cash:

Sale price - Carrying amount of the machine = $45,500 - $37,500 = $8,000>0

=> The company recognizes gain on the sales $8,000

Debit Cash $45,500

Debit Accumulated depreciation account $67,500

Credit Gain on asset selling $8,000

Credit Machine asset $105,000

(2) The machine is sold for $25,000 cash

Sale price - Carrying amount of the machine = $25,000 - $37,500 = -$12,500<0

=> The company recognizes loss on the sales $12,500

The entry should be made:  

Debit Cash $25,000

Debit Accumulated depreciation account $67,500

Debit Loss on asset selling $12,500

Credit Machine asset $105,000

Two investment advisers are comparing performance. One averaged a 19% return and the other a 16% return. However, the beta of th
pentagon [3]

Answer (A):

Need more data to select the better adviser

<u>Explanation: </u>

Adviser A averaged 19% return on the investment which is more than that of Adviser B who averaged 16% return on investment. However, adviser A has a beta of 1.5 which is also greater than that of Adviser B who has a beta of 1. This means that adviser A made a more riskier investment and hence a higher average return on investment. We need more data to tell which adviser performed better in relation to each other.

Answer (B):

Investment Adviser B

<u>Explanation:</u>

R_{f} = T-bill rate = 6%

R_{m} = Market return = 14%

R_{m} - R_{f} = Market risk premium = 14% - 6% = 8%

ER_{a} = Average Return by Adviser A =19%

\beta _{a} = Beta of Adviser A = 1.5

ER_{b} = Average Return by Adviser B =16%

\beta _{b} = Beta of Adviser B = 1

CAPM Equation is ER_{i} = R_{f} +\beta  (R_{m} - R_{f} ) +\alpha

<u>For Adviser A</u>

ER_{i} = 6 + 1.5 (14 - 6) = 18%

The expected average return for the investment is 18% which means that Adviser A over performed the market by 1 %

<u>For Adviser B</u>

ER_{i} = 6 + 1 (14 - 6) = 14%

The expected average return for the investment is 14% which means that the Adviser B over performed the market by 2 %

Clearly, Adviser B performed better than Adviser A.

Answer (C):

Adviser B

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u />

In this part, the R_{f} = 3 % and R_{m} = 15%

All else remains the same

We make similar calculation as in part B
