Answer: D. At least every third audit

Explanation: According to the AICPA Professional Standards of auditing. Testing the operating effectiveness of controls that appear to function as they have in past years and on which the auditor wishes to rely upon in the current year must be carried out at least every 3rd Audit.

This is done if the auditor plans to use audit evidence from a prior audit about the operating

effectiveness of specific controls. The auditor shall establish the continuing relevance of that

evidence by obtaining audit evidence about whether changes in those controls have

occurred subsequent to the previous audit.

8. The TS Company has budgeted sales for the year as follows: Quarter 1 Quarter 2 Quarter 3 Quarter 4 Sales in units 10,000 12,0
Finger [1]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to determine the production budget using the following formula:</u>

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Quarter 1:

Production= 10,000 + (0.25*12,000) - 2,500

Production= 10,500

Quarter 2:

Production= 12,000 + (0.25*14,000) - 3,000

Production= 12,500

Quarter 3:

Production= 14,000 + (0.25*16,000) - 3,500

Production= 14,500

Quarter 4:

Production= 16,000 - 4,000

Production= 12,000

<u>Now, the direct material purchase budget:</u>

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Quarter 1:

Purchase= 10,500*4 + (12,500*0.1) - 4,200

Purchase= 39,050 pounds

Quarter 2:

Purchase= 12,500*4 + (14,500*0.1) - 1,250

Purchase= 50,200 pounds

Quarter 3:

Purchase= 14,500*4 + (12,000*0.1) - 1,450

Purchase= 57,750 pounds

Quarter 4:

Purchase= 12,000*4 - 1,200

Purchase= 46,800 pounds

How many years would it take for money to increase to 3 times the initial amount at an interest rate of 18% per year?
arlik [135]

Answer:

7 years (to the nearest year)

Explanation:

Given that;

A = amount

P= principal

t = time

r = rate

A =3P(given in the question)

Formula for compound interest;

A = P(1 + r)^t

Substituting values;

3P = P(1 + 18/100)^t

3P/P= (1.18)^t

3 = (1.18)^t

log 3 = t log 1.18

t = log 3/log 1.18

t = 0.4771/0.0719

t = 6.6 years

t = 7 years (to the nearest year)

The cashier for Bell Buoy rang up sales totaling $5,104, but had $5,120 to deposit, which journal entry would be recorded? Multi
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

A debit to Cash for $5,120, a credit to Cash Overage for $16, and a credit to Sales Revenue for $5,104.

Explanation:

In the current situation, the cash received is in excess of revenue recorded, thus, there will be cash overage.

As per books cash shall be $5,104 but since actual cash is $5,120 there is cash overage of $16

Therefore, for this, actual cash received shall be debited = $1,520

Cash overage shall be credited for $16

And accordingly sales of $5,104 shall be recorded as a credit.

Thus, correct option is: Entry A

When a supplier is restricted to operating during certain hours, which in turn limits its quantity supplied, the elasticity of s
enyata [817]

Answer:

C. less than 1

Explanation:

Supply is elastic if producers can increase output without a rise in cost or a time delay which means Price elasticity of supply is more than 1.

Supply is inelastic if producers find it hard to change production in a given time period which means Price elasticity of supply is less than 1.

When Price elasticity of supply equals 0 then supply is perfectly inelastic.

In the past, Taylor Industries has used a fixed−time period inventory system that involved taking a complete inventory count of
N76 [4]

Answer:

a) Taylor Industries can successfully cut back its labor cost in inventory stockrooms by counting only high-value items.  These items are determined by reference to their Annual Usage values.  The items' annual usage values should be used as the activity cost pool for accumulating and allocating labor cost in inventory stockrooms.  Taylor Industries can establish a benchmark or cutoff point so that only the items meeting this benchmark are counted.  For example, the items with annual usage value above $5,000 should be included in the items to be counted.  This strategy will reduce the number of items to be counted and therefore the labor cost.

b) Since item 15 is critical to Taylor Industries' continued operations, it should be classified as a direct materials cost and not an overhead cost.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

a random sample of 20 of Taylor's items:

ITEM NUMBER   ANNUAL USAGE    ITEM NUMBER    ANNUAL USAGE

1                               $ 1,500                      11                       $ 13,000

2                               12,000                     12                              600

3                                2,200                      13                        42,000

4                              50,000                     14                           9,900

5                                9,600                     15                            1,200

6                                   750                      16                         10,200

7                                2,000                      17                          4,000

8                               11,000                      18                         61,000

9                                  800                       19                         3,500

10                            15,000                      20                        2,900

Average annual usage value = $12,657.50
