Answer:

The correct Answer is predetermined overhead rate = $2.50 per direct labor hour.

Explanation:

Overhead is those costs required to run a business, but which cannot be directly attributed to any specific, for example, rent, factory overheads, depreciation, indirect labor and production supervisor's salary.

Total manufacturing overheads = Rent of factory building + Depreciation on factory equipment + Indirect labor + Production supervisor's salary

Total manufacturing overheads = $15,000 + $8,000 + $12,000 + $15,000

Total manufacturing overheads = $50,000

Total Direct labor hours in the year = 20,000

Predetermined Overhead Rate per labor hour = $50,000/20,000

Predetermined Overhead Rate per labor hour = $2.50 per direct labor hour

Note:

Sales salary is a selling expense and not a product cost hence it will not be included for calculating predetermined overhead rate.

Direct material and labor are direct expenses, they are product cost but not a part of Overhead cost.

On October 1, Hawking Corp. had 40,000 shares of $2 par value common stock outstanding before it declared a 2-for-1 stock split.

Naily [24]

Answer:

1. After the split, how many shares of common stock are outstanding and what is their par value per share?

40,000 stocks outstanding x 2 = 80,000 stocks outstanding after the stock split

par value of each stock = $2 / 2 = $1

Aren't both questions the same?

2. After the split, the number of shares outstanding is 80,000 and the par value per share is $1.

Explanation:

When a stock split happens, the total number of outstanding stock is just multiplied by the stock split factor, in this case it was 2, but other times it might be 4 or 7 (like Apple stock). You just multiply total outstanding stock by the split number. On the other hand, par value is calculated by dividing the current par value by the split number.

Stech Co. is issuing $9 million 12% bonds in a private placement on July 1, 2017. Each $1,000 bond pays interest semi-annually o

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Expected selling price =$ 1,271.81

Explanation:

The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.

These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value

The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:

Step 1

PV of interest payment

coupon rate - 12%, yield - 8%, years to maturity- 10 years

Semi-annual coupon rate = 12%/2 = 6%

Semi-annual Interest payment =( 6%×$1000)= $60

Semi annual yield = 8%/2 = 4%

PV of interest payment

= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- interest payment, r- yield - 4%, n- no of periods- 2 × 10 = 20periods

= 60× (1-(1.04)^(-10×2))/0.04)

= 60× 13.59032634

=$815.41

Step 2

PV of redemption value (RV)

PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)

RV - redemption value- $1000, n- 2×10 r- 4%

= 1,000 × (1+0.04)^(-2×10)

= $456.38

Step 3

Price of bond = PV of interest payment + PV of RV

= $815.41 + $456.38

= $ 1,271.81

Expected selling price =$ 1,271.81

Laura is considering investing in a company's stock and is aware that the return on that investment is particularly sensitive to

Ilya [14]

Answer:

The expected return on this investment is 10.500%

Explanation:

The expected return is the return anticipated by the investors based on the different circumstances and how the return can change under these circumstances. The expected return can be calculated by multiplying the probability of each circumstance by the return under that circumstance.

Expected return = pA * rA + pB * rB + ... + pN * rN

Where,

p represents probability of each event
r represents return under each event

Expected return = 0.3 * 0.25 + 0.1 * 0.15 + 0.3 * 0.1 + 0.3 * -0.05

Expected return = 0.105 or 10.500%

John developed a food additive that replaces processed sugars. He granted the right to use this additive to a major cereal manuf

LiRa [457]

Answer: Licensing

Explanation:

John's ingredient is his intellectual property. By giving the right regarding the usage of the ingredient to another business entity and by receiving a sales volume related royalty payment for each box sold, John is involved in a licensing agreement.

Two parties are involved in each licensing agreement: the licencor and the licencee. In this example, John is the licencor and the cereal manufacturer is the licencee. Both of the parties sign the licensing agreement, which is active over a specified amount of time.

Licensing is not to be confused with franchising. It refers to a specific business model when the franchisee operates under the brand (logo and trademark) of the franchiser, but essentially keeps its independence branch-wise. Best examples are McDonald's and KFC.
