Answer:

a. 175%

b.

<u>Journal Entry  to apply factory overhead to production for February.</u>

Work In Process $280,000 (debit)

Overheads $280,000 (credit)

c. $3,900

d. Under-applied Overheads

Explanation:

<em>Predetermined Overhead rate = Total Budgeted Overheads /Total Budgeted Activity</em>

                                                   = $3,150,000 / $1,800,000

                                                   = $1.75 per direct labor cost.  or

                                                   = 175% (1.75 × 100)

<em>Applied factory overhead = Predetermined Overhead rate × Actual Activity</em>

                                           = $160,000 × 175 %

                                           = $280,000

<u>Journal Entry  to apply factory overhead to production for February.</u>

Work In Process $280,000 (debit)

Overheads $280,000 (credit)

<u>over-applied or under-applied factory overhead</u>

<em>Over-applied Overheads = Actual Overheads < Applied Overheads</em>

<em>Under-applied Overheads = Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads</em>

Actual Overheads (given) = $283,900

Applied Overheads = $280,000

Actual Overheads: $283,900 > Applied Overheads :$280,000

Thus we have an Under-application situation of $3,900 ($283,900 - $280,000)

An increase in the price of good B resulting from a decrease in the supply of B caused an increase in the demand for good C. Thi
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The correct answer is: substitutes.

Explanation:

A decrease in the supply of good B will cause the supply curve to move to the left. This leftward shift in the supply curve will cause the price of good B to increase.  

The consumers will prefer a cheaper substitute, so when the price of good B increases, the demand for good C will increase.  

This indicates that good B and good C are substitute goods.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

d. $5,204

Explanation:

Interest expenses up to December 31, 2020 = (Total present value of lease payment - Lease payment on July 2021) * 8% * 6/12

= $61,600 - $8,500 * 8% * 6/12

= $53,100 * 8% * 6/12

= $2,124

Depreciation Expenses up to December 31, 2021

= Fair value of equipment / Useful life * 6/12

= ($61,600 / 10) *6/12

= $6,160 * 6/12

= $3,080

Therefore, the total decrease in earnings (Pretax) in Larlas December 31, 2021 Income statement would be

= Interest expenses + Depreciation Expenses

= $2,124 + $3,080

= $5,204

On August 1, our company purchases $1,000 worth of merchandise inventory on credit with the terms 2/10, n/30. What is the amount
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

a) $1,000

Explanation:

Early Settlement Discount

This form of quotation is common with suppliers offering their customers deferred payment arrangement in a sale contract. Usually, under this arrangement customers are allowed to purchase goods on credit and settle their acccount at a specified  later date.

However, to encourage customers to pay up their outstanding earlier than expected, suppliers do offer early settlement discount as incentives to induce prompt payment.

A quotation of 2/10, n/30

This implies that the customer is a given a 30-day period from the date of purchase within which he is expected to settle his account. However, if he does so within the next 10 days of purchase he will be given a 2% discount.

<em>Applying this to the question, the purchase date is August 1, the the latest date for which account is settle to qualify for early settlement discount will be 11 days i.e (1+10) .</em>

Since the payment will be made on August 12, no cash discount will received. Therefore, a payment of gross amount of $1,000 would be credited to the cash account.

Project: Current Event - Business Ethics
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Signs of the boom are everywhere. Over 500 business-ethics courses are currently taught on American campuses; fully 90% of the nation’s business schools now provide some kind of training in the area. There are more than 25 textbooks in the field and 3 academic journals dedicated to the topic. At least 16 business-ethics research centers are now in operation, and endowed chairs in business ethics have been established at Georgetown, Virginia, Minnesota, and a number of other prominent business schools.

And yet, I suspect that the field of business ethics is largely irrelevant for most managers. It’s not that they are hostile to the idea of business ethics. Recent surveys suggest that over three-quarters of America’s major corporations are actively trying to build ethics into their organizations. Managers would welcome concrete assistance with primarily two kinds of ethical challenges: first, identifying ethical courses of action in difficult gray-area situations (the kind that Harvard Business School Lecturer Joseph L. Badaracco, Jr. has described as “not issues of right versus wrong,” but “conflicts of right versus right”); and, second, navigating those situations where the right course is clear, but real-world competitive and institutional pressures lead even well-intentioned managers astray.

The problem is that the discipline of business ethics has yet to provide much concrete help to managers in either of these areas, and even business ethicists sense it. One can’t help but notice how often articles in the field lament a lack of direction or poor fit with the real ethical problems of real managers. “Business Ethics: Where Are We Going?” asks one title. “Is There No Such Thing as Business Ethics?” wonders another. My personal favorite puts it wryly, “Business Ethics: Like Nailing Jello to a Wall.”
