Answer:

a) alternative Y should be chosen

b) alternative Y, because its NPV is higher

c) 27.19%

d) alternative X, because its NPV is only -$463 (alternative Y's NPV = - $727)

e) alternative X = 1.98 years

alternative Y = 2.49 years

f) alternative Y because its NPV is much higher when MARR = 15%, and when MARR increased to 27.5%, the difference between both projects' NPV was very small.

Explanation:

a and b)

NPV of alternative X = -$100,000 + $50,000/1.15 + $51,000/1.15² + $60,000/1.15³ = -$100,000 + $43,478 + $38,563 + $39,451 = $21,492

NPV of alternative Y = -$100,000 + $205,760/1.15³ = $35,291

c)

incremental cash flows:

-$50,000

-$51,000

$145,760

TIR = 27.19%

d)

NPV of alternative X = -$100,000 + $50,000/1.275 + $51,000/1.275² + $60,000/1.275³ = -$100,000 + $39,216 + $31,373 + $28,948 = -$463

NPV of alternative Y = -$100,000 + $205,760/1.275³ = -$727

e)

alternative X ⇒ 1 year + ($50,000 / $51,000) = 1.98 years

alternative Y ⇒ 2 years + ($100,000 / $205,760) = 2.49 years

At August 31, 2022, Carla Vista Company has this bank information: cash balance per bank $10,690; outstanding checks $840; depos
Igoryamba

Answer:

$11,650

Explanation:

The adjusted cash balance per bank at August 31 2022 is calculated as;

= Cash balance per bank - Outstanding checks + Deposits in transits

Given that;

Cash balance per bank = $10,690

Outstanding checks = $840

Deposits in transits = $1,800

= $10,690 - $840 + $1,800

= $11,650

Therefore the adjusted cash balance per bank is $11,650. It means that the cash balance per bank statement has to be adjusted to accommodate outstanding checks and deposits in transit. For outstanding checks , they are checks that have not yet been found on the bank statement , while deposits in transit are those deposits, that have not yet been found or appear on the bank statement.

A.Earnings at normal rate(1)= $ 460,000.00

Total earnings(3) = $540,000

Sales salaries(12)= $ 135,000.00

Dr OfficeSalaries $ 120,000.00

Dr SalesSalaries $ 135,000.00

Cr Ss tax $ 32,400.00

Cr Mc tax $ 8,100.00

Cr Income tax withheld $ 135,000.00

Cr Medical insurance $ 18,900.00

Cr Uniondues $ 6,750.00

Cr Wages accrued and payable $ 338,850.00

C.Dr wages accreud and payable$ 338,850.00

Cr Cash $ 338,850.00

Explanation:

In order for us to calculate the ommited in (1) we have to find out the (3) calculated as :

Social securities tax 6% of total earnings $32,400

Medicare tax 1.5% of total earnings $8,100

Therefore let x be the total earnings using 6%

x*6%= $32,400

x= $32,400/6%

= $ 540,000.00

Or let x be the total earnings using 1.5%

x*1.5%= $8,100

x= $8100/1.5%

$ 540,000.00

The total earnings for 3 will be = $540,000

Using this formula to calculate for earnings at normal rate

Earnings at normal rate=total earnings -overtime rate

Let plug in the formula

$540000-$80000= $ 460,000.00

Therefore earnings at normal rate for (1)= $460,000.00

In order to calculate for 8,we have to substract the total deductions form taxes and insurances

Using this formula

Total deductions=social security +medicare+income tax held+union dues+medical insurance

Hence,

$201150=$32400+$8100+$135000+$18900+union dues

Union dues(8)=$201150-32400-8100-135000-18900

Union dues(8)= $ 6,750.00

In order to calculate for 12 sales salaries,we have to deduct total earnings from factory wages and office salaries

Using this formula

Sales salaries=total earnings -factory wages and office salaries

Sales

salaries(12)=$540000-$285000-$120000

sales salaries(12)= $ 135,000.00

Therefore:

Earnings at normal rate(1)= $ 460,000.00

Total earnings(3) = $540,000

Union dues(8)= $ 6,750.00

Sales salaries(12)= $ 135,000.00

B. Journalising the entry to record payroll

Dr FactoryWages $ 285,000.00

3. Imagine that you are working at a clothing or grocery store, and answer the questions
Deffense [45]

B. To help determine how much inventory to keep in stock of each item in the outlet, I would consider two factors. The first one is the <u>certain amount of each item type </u>in the first week - determining the number of each items input in the stock to be the original data to compare. The second is the <u>number of items sold and still on stock</u>. This would help determine invetory to keep in stock.

B. If I was running a store, I would prefer to use the pick up at store buying method. There would be cashier at the register to check the products and bills as well as receive money from the customers. This is the traditional and still always the most common methods. As the fact that people nowadays still like shopping in physical store, this is definitely the most effective method.

C. The inventory control method I would use when operating a store is to adopt modern technology like bar code to control the inventory stock. By using this technology, I would need to consider the <u>bar code</u> for each type and establishing <u>software</u> to automatically input the information about the number of items sold and in stock. With inputting the number of total items at the beginning and giving each item its corresponding bar code, the sales or number of stock would be tracked by the software.

D. An example of two commodities to be displayed together at store is <u>pencil and rubber</u>. Pencil and rubber undoubtedly are complementary products of each other. Complementary products are made to be used together. Each item requires the other for their complete uses. This is also the case of Rubber and Pencil and each item would not be fully used without the presence of the other.
