Answer:

Using weighted average method

Statement of equivalent units

Material Conversion

Units Units

Units transferred out 19,000 19,000

Add: Closing work-in-progress 6,000 1,800

Average divisor  25,000  20,800

Computation of cost per unit

Material Conversion

$ $

Cost of beginning work-in-progress 10,000 19,000

Cost added 50,000 112,248

Total cost  60,000  131,248

Material cost per unit = $60,000

25,000 units

= $2.40 per unit

Conversion cost per unit = $131,248

20,800 units

= $6.31 per unit

Value of units transferred out

Material = 19,000 x $2.40 = $45,600

Conversion = 19,000 x $6.31 = $119,890

Value of closing work-in-progress

Material = 6,000 x $2.40 = $14,400

Conversion = 1,800 x $6.31 = 11,358

Explanation:

In this case, we need to prepare statement of equivalent units in order to ascertain the average divisor. The average divisor is the sum of units transferred out and closing work-in-progress. Then, we will obtain the total cost of material and conversion, which is the aggregate of cost of opening work-in-progress and cost of units added. We will also calculate the cost per unit, which is total cost of material and conversion divided by average divisor. Finally, the units transferred and ending work-in-progress will be valued at unit cost of material and conversion.

You are bearish on Telecom and decide to sell short 100 shares at the current market price of $50 per share.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

A. $2,500

B. $60

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine How much in cash or securities must you put into your brokerage account if the broker's initial margin requirement is 50% of the value of the short position

Initial Margin = 100*$50*50%

Initial Margin = $2,500

Therefore The amount of securities that you must put into your brokerage account if the broker's initial margin requirement is 50% of the value of the short position is $2,500

b. Calculation to determine How high can the price of the stock go before you get a margin call if the maintenance margin is 30% of the value of the short position

First step is to calculate the Maintenance Margin per share

Maintenance Margin per share = $50*30%

Maintenance Margin per share =$15

Second step is to calculate the Rise in price required

Rise in price required = $50*50% - $15

Rise in price required= $10

Now let calculate How high can the price of the stock go

Price of stock=$50+$10

Price of stock= $60

Therefore How high can the price of the stock go before you get a margin call if the maintenance margin is 30% of the value of the short position is $60

Goryan [66]

The given values in the problem are enumerated below:
futa tax rate = 0.8%
suta tax rate = 5.4 %
Employee's fee = $7,100
Amount taxes = $7100 *(0.008+0.054)= $440.2

When an employee earned total wages of $9100, we can solve the unknown:
Employee's wages = $9100 + $440.2
Employee's wages = $ 9540.2
