uysha [10]

Answer:

1. 6,000

2. 7,200

Explanation:

1. Calculation to determine how much of the ending inventory consists of fixed manufacturing overhead cost deferred in inventory to the next period.

Using this formula

Ending inventory=Fixed manufacturing overhead/Units produced*Ending units

Let plug in the formula

Ending inventory=62,000/310*30

Ending inventory=6,000

Therefore how much of the ending inventory consists of fixed manufacturing overhead cost deferred in inventory to the next period is 6,000

2. Preparation of an income statement for the year using variable costing.

IDA SIDHA KARYA Company Variable Costing Income Statement

Units produced cost (130+350+50=530)

Sales $254,800

(280*910)

VARIABLE EXPENSES:

Variable cost of goods sold $148,400

(280*530)

Variable selling and administrative expense $11,200

(280*40)

Contribution margin $95,200

($254,800-$148,400-$11,200)

FIXED EXPENSES:

Fixed manufacturing overhead $62,000

Fixed selling and administrative expense $26,000

Net operating income $7,200

($95,200-$62,000-$26,000)

Therefore the income statement for the year using variable costing is $7,200

A BBB-rated, $1000 face value, corporate bond has a yield to maturity of 8.2%. A U.S. Treasury security has a yield to maturity
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Price of treasury bond in terms of percentage of face value is 102.106%

Explanation:

Given:

Face value (FV) = $1000

Coupon rate = 7% or 3.5% semi-annually

Coupon payment  (PMT) = 1000×0.035 = $35

YTM (rate) = 6.5% or 3.25% semi-annually

Maturity period (nper) = 5×2 = 10 periods

Using PV function to calculate price of treasury bond:

=PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV)

Price of bond is $1021.06 (it is negative as it is a cash outflow)

Price of bond in terms of percentage of face value = \frac{1021.06}{1000} \times100

=102.106%

A borrower is unsure whether to go with a fixed rate or adjustable rate loan. what kind of questions would you ask to help them
katovenus [111]
I would ask them if they were comfortable with a fluctuating rate, which though at the moment is lower than the fixed rate, could go up in the future. I would also ask them if they needed to be sure of the rate say for example for a 5 year term like in a mortgage for peace of mind or if they are willing to take a risk with the fluctuations. If the latter, I would tell them that at any time they could lock it in for a 5 year term if they saw it going up.
