If Tara bought, sweater $ 52, T-shirt $19, Shoes $68, Jeans $72, Necklace $21, the total would be;
52+19+68+72+21 = 230
But a tax rate of 7% was included,
Thus, 230 × 0.07 = 16.1
Therefore, the total amount is 230+16.1 = 246.1
Hence, the Estimate amount of money that Tara expects to pay is $250

Answer:

1. The corrected gross profit are as follows:

2015 = $704,000

2016 = $836,000

2017 = $859,000

2018 = $1,024,000

2-a Gross profit percentage before and after correction are as follows:

Particulars 2015 2016 2017 2018

Before correction 32% 33% 31% 32%

After correction 32% 32% 32% 32%

2-b. Yes. This is because the gross profit percentage for the years are approximately the same at 32% after the correction was made.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Partial income statements for Sherwood Company summarized for a four-year period show the following:

2015 2016 2017 2018

Net Sales $2,200,000 $2,600,000 $2,700,000 $3,200,000

COGS <u> 1,496,000 </u> <u> 1,742,00</u> <u> 1,863,000</u> <u> 2,176,000</u>

Gross Profit <u> $704,000 </u> <u> $858,000 </u> <u> $837,000 </u> <u> $1,024,000 </u>

An audit revealed that in determining these amounts, the ending inventory for 2016 was overstated by $22.000. The inventory balance on December 31, 2017, was accurately stated. The company uses a periodic inventory system.

Required: 1. Restate the partial income statements to reflect the correct amounts, after fixing the inventory error, 2-a. Compute the gross profit percentage for each year (a) before the correction and (b) after the correction 2-b. Does the pattern of gross profit percentages lend confidence to your corrected amounts?

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

1. Restate the partial income statements to reflect the correct amounts, after fixing the inventory error

Note: See the attached excel file for the fixing the inventory error and the restated partial income statements to reflect the correct amounts, after fixing the inventory error.

The effect of the overstatement of closing inventory is reducing the 2016 cost of goods sold. To correct this in the attached excel file, the opening balance is reduced by $22,000 and this makes cost of goods sold of 2016 to increase and the cost of goods sold of 2017 to decrease by $22,000.

2-a. Compute the gross profit percentage for each year (a) before the correction and (b) after the correction

Note: See the attached excel file for the computed the gross profit percentage for each year (a) before the correction and (b) after the correction.

In the attached excel file, the following formula is used:

Gross Profit percentage = Gross profit / Net Sales) * 100

2-b. Does the pattern of gross profit percentages lend confidence to your corrected amounts?

Yes. This is because the gross profit percentage for the years are approximately the same at 32% after the correction was made.

Answer:

The right solution is "$20.733.16".

Explanation:

According to the question,

Face value,

= $20000

Rate (r),

= .035

Bond A:

= $\frac{Face \ value}{(1+r)^n}$

= $\frac{20000}{(1+.035)^{40}}$

= $5051.45$ ($)

Bond B:

= $\frac{1100\times 12.0941}{(1+.035)^{10}} + \frac{1400\times 10.9205}{(1+.035)^{26}} + \frac{20000}{(1+.035)^{40}}$

= $9431.11+6250.6+5051.45$

= $20733.16$ ($)

Larry Ellison starts a company that manufactures high-end custom leather bags. He hires two employees. Each employee only begins

Degger [83]

Answer:

12.55 days

Explanation:

<em><u>Provided information </u></em>

Number of employees 2

Average production time=1.8 days

Standard deviation=2.7 days

Inter-arrival time= 1 day

Coefficient of variation= 1 day

Standard deviation of inter-arrival time= 1 day

The coefficient of variations

<u>Inter-arrival coefficient of variation </u>

$C_{vi}=\frac {\sigma}{T}$ where $\sigma$ is standard deviation of inter-arrival time, T is inter-arrival time and $C_v$ is coefficient of variation of inter-arrival time

$C_{vi}=\frac {1 day}{1 day}=1$

<u>Production time coefficient of variation </u>

$C_{vp}=\frac {2.7}{1.8}=1.5$

<u><em>Total utilization time </em></u>

$U=\frac {T}{n*T_i}$ where T is the time of production, n is number of employees, U is utilization, $T_i$ is inter-arrival time

$U=\frac {1.8}{2*1}=0.9$

Therefore, utilization time by 2 employees is 0.9

<u>Expected average waiting time </u>

$T_e=(\frac {T}{n*T_i})*0.5(C_{vi}^{2}+C_{vp}^{2})*(\frac{U^{\sqrt{2(n+1)}-1}}{1-U})$

Where $T_e$ is expected average waiting time and the other symbols as already defined

Substituting 1.5 for $C_{vp}$ , 1 for $C_{vi}$ , 0.9 for U, 2 for n, 1 for $T_i$ and 1.8 for T

$T_e=(\frac {1.8}{2*1})*0.5(1^{2}+1.5^{2})*(\frac{0.9^{\sqrt{2(2+1)}-1}}{1-0.9})$

$T_e=0.9*1.625*8.583709=12.55367 days$ and rounding off to 2 decimal places we obtain 12.55 days

Therefore, expected duration between order received and beginning of production is approximately 12.55 days

Surfer sam company produced 4,000 units of product that required 2.5 standard hours per unit. the standard fixed overhead cost p

Svet_ta [14]

The fixed factory overhead volume variance is $400 (unfavorable)

solution

Fixed Overhead Volume Variance = Applied Fixed Overhead – Budgeted Fixed Overhead

Applied Fixed Overhead = 4,000 units ×2.5 hrs per unit×$0.80 = $8000

$Applied Fixed Overhead= 4,000 units ×2.5 hrs per unit×$0.80 = $8000$

and

Budgeted Fixed Overhead =10,500 hrs × $0.80 = $8400

$Budgeted Fixed Overhead =10,500 hrs × $0.80 = $8400$

Fixed Overhead Volume Variance = $8000- $8400 = $400 (unfavorable)

$Fixed Overhead Volume Variance = 8000- 8400 = 400 (unfavorable)$
