Answer:
$20 Million
Explanation:
- Reported Income before taxes for 2018= $470 Million
- Tax Depreciation excess over Financially Reported Depreciation= $ 50 Million
- Income Tax rate for 2018= 35%
- Enacted Rate for Years after 2018= 40%
Calculation
- The Deferred Tax Liability= Excess of Tax Depreciation over Financially Reported Depreciation × Enacted Tax Rate
Deferred Tax Liability
This represents the tax due for a particular period but yet to be paid. A deferred tax liability is the indication that an organisation will have to pay mor tax in the future as a result of a current transaction.
In the situation of Brown and Lowery, the Deferred tax is an applied tax rate to the excess of tax depreciation over financial reporting depreciation.
Based on International Accounting Standard (IAS) 12, Deferred tax liability should be calculated using the Enacted rate for years after the current period.
Also, $50,000,000 is the excess of tax depreciationi over depreciation used for financial reporting, however, since the firm has a $20, 000,000 which is a non-tax deductible expense then it will not affect our Deferred Tax Liability Calculation.
a. Standard labor-hours is 7920 hours.
b. Standard labor cost allowed is $42,768.
c. The labor spending variance is $1588(U).
d. The labor rate variance is $1706 and the labor efficiency variance $3294(U).
e. The variable overhead rate is $5971(U) and efficiency variances for the month $5580(U).
<u>Explanation:</u>
a)Standars hours(SH) allowed to make 19800 jogging mates
=SH per unit
19800
=(24/60)*19800
=7920 hours
24/60 has been taken to convert minutes into hours.
b)Standard Labor Cost (SC) of 19800 jogging mates

=$42,768
c)Labour Spending Variance

=$1588(U)
d)Labor Rate Variance

=$1706
Actual Hours(AH) * Actual Rate per hour(AR)= Actual Cost(AC)


Labor Efficiency Variance

=$3294(U)
e) Variable overhead rate variance = Actual hours worked (Standard overhead rate - Actual overhead rate)
= 8530 (4.5 - 5.20)
= $5971(U)
Actual overhead rate = $44,356 / 8530 = 5.20
Variable overhead efficiency variance = Standard overhead rate (Standard hours - Actual hours)
= 4.50 (7290 - 8530)
= $5580(U).

Answer:
a) Present value of the investment: $198,936
b) if the present worth of the investment which are discounted at MARR rate is positive, the investment is worth investing, while if the present value of the investment is negative, Investor should not invest.
c) As calculated in (a), present value of the investment is $198,936, Bailey should buy the gang punch
Explanation:
Please find detailed of calculation in (a) which is shown as below:
Present value = Present value of saving in raw material - Present value of increase in labor cost - Initial investment = [ (12,250/ 5%) x (1-1.05^-15)] - [ (3,200/ 5%) x (1-1.05^-15)] - 105,000 = $198,936.
Answer:
Explanation:
Tantalum is a metal used to manufacture electronics such as cell phones, computers and digital cameras. The problem with tantalum is that it is found in coltan ore, which is mostly mined in Africa. The African country with the largest tantalum exports is Congo, a country devastated by continuous civil wars. Millions of people have been killed in these civil wars and the warlords control coltan mines.
