Answer:

Balance for the Factory Overhead account: 19,000 credit

Explanation:

We will first, calculate the overhead rate based on the predetermination overhead rate:

$\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate$

The total manufacturing cost will be distributed over the cost driver. In this case, labor cost:

360,000/180,000 = 2 overhead rate

Then, we calculate the applied overhead 203,000 x 2 = 406,000

Now, the balance for factory overhead account:

Actual overhead: 387,000 debit

payable, accumulated depreicaiton and other 387,000 credit

WIP 406,000 debit

Applied Overhead 406,000 credit

Balance:

406,000 - 387,000 = 19,000 credit

Answer:

(a) Dollar Weighted Rate of return = 0.27

(b) Simple interest-based rate of return = (115000- 100000)/ 100000 = 0.15

(c) Since, the data or investment portfolio of Emily is of one year, we can calculate the money weighted rate of return but time weighted rate of return couldn’t be calculated.

Explanation:

For (a) Dollar Weighted Rate of return = 0.27

Calculations: 115000 = ((-10000) *(1 + r) ^ ((365-90)/365)) + 100000*(1+r)

So, using calculator we found r= 0.27

Here we’ve equated the value of portfolio at Jan 1, 1998 with Value of portfolio on Jan 1, 1997 and using the formula for money weighted average rate of return we’ve found the rate of return. Since, we are taking annual money weighted average rate of return, so we don’t include the value of July cash flow, i.e. $5000.

For (b) Simple interest-based rate of return = (115000- 100000)/ 100000 = 0.15

Since, the distribution of deposits and withdrawals is uniform, so it is simply the newer value minus original value divided by the original value and is most likely to percentage calculation.

(c) Since, the data or investment portfolio of Emily is of one year, we can calculate the money weighted rate of return but time weighted rate of return couldn’t be calculated.

Mazyrski [523]

APR formula = (Finance charges/total balance) x 365

Purchase price = $3,900
Downpayment = $1,000
Total financed = $2,900
Payments (36m) = $100.53
Total amount = $3,619.08

APR formula = (Finance charges/total balance) x 365
APR = ($3619.08/2900) x 365
APR = 4.5%

Incomplete question. The full question read;

Malcolm has several receipts from recent transactions that he entered into his records. The receipts include an ATM receipt for an $80.00 deposit, a grocery store receipt for $25.50, and a paycheck deposit slip for $650.00.

When he finishes entering his transactions, Malcolm realizes that his balance is incorrect. Assuming that Malcolm had no beginning balance, what should his correct balance be?

Answer:

$704.50

Explanation:

First, we need to note which transactions are credit transactions, and which is a debit transaction. Remember, a credit transaction basically means a transaction that brings money into your account, while the latter is a transaction that takes money out of your account.

Malcolm's credit transactions:

ATM receipt for an $80.00 deposit

paycheck deposit slip for $650.00

Total: $730.

Malcolm's debit transactions:

grocery store receipt for $25.50

Total: $25.50

Substracting total debit transactions from credit transactions, Malcolm's correct balance would be = $704.50 ($730-$25.50).
