Answer:

The rate of return on the investment is 10.79% per year

Explanation:

The rate of return on the bond can be calculated using the future value formula, which is given as :

FV=PV*(1+r)^N

FV future value is the value of investment at redemption at $25000

PV is the current price of the bond now at $4,850

r is the rate of return on the bond which is unknown

N  is th number of years the bond matures which is 16 years

25000=4,850*(1+r)^16

divide both sides by 4850

(25000/4850)=(1+r)^16

divide the exponential on both sides by 16

(25000/4850)^1/16=1+r

1.107930178 =1+r

r=1.107930178 -1

r=0.10793

r=10.79%

At the beginning of 2023, the Mackinac Company purchased a machine for $510,000 (salvage value of $60,000) that had a useful lif
Ratling [72]

Answer:

$10,000 credited

Explanation:

DATA

Machine cost = 510,000

Salvage value = $60,000

Useful life = 6 years

Depreciation = $60,000/6years

Depreciation = $10,000

It means that we have overstated depreciation expense for the year with the amount of $10,000.

Retained earnings will be credited by $10,000 As the depreciation expense was overstated mistakenly by $10,000

SITE B :

(0.25 * 82) + (0.35*85) + (0.30*50) + (0.10*88) = 74.05

SITE C :

(0.25 * 84) + (0.35*88) + (0.30*60) + (0.10*91) = 78.90

Shkiper50 [21]
<span>Decrease by $57,400 per month. Looks look at the cash flow for continuing to produce product a and discontinuing product a. Continuing to produce Income = 15900 * $29 = $461,100 Variable Expenses = 15900 * 23 = $365,700 Fixed overhead = $109,000 Total cash flow = $461,100 - $365,700 - $109,000 = -$13,600 So the Lusk company is losing $13,600 per month while producing product a. Let's see what happens if they stop producing it. Income = $0 Variable Expenses = $0 Fixed overhead = $71,000 Total cash flow = $0 - $71,000 = -$71,000 So if they stop producing it, their fixed overhead decreases, but is still at $71,000 per month, for a total loss per month of $71,000. The conclusion is to either lose $13,600 per month, or $71,000 per month. So if they stop production of product a, their loss per month will increase by $57,400.</span>

Damm [24]

Answer:

Materials:

price     800U

quantity 510 F

Labor:

rate          1,860 F

efficiency 1,740 U

Explanation:

DIRECT MATERIALS VARIANCES

(standard\:cost-actual\:cost) \times actual \: quantity= DM \: price \: variance

std cost           $5.10

actual cost  $5.30

quantity          4,000

(5.1 - 5.3) \times 4,000 = DM \: price \: variance

price variance  $(800.00)

(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity \: variance

std quantity 4000.00

actual quantity 3900.00

std cost  $5.10

(4,000 - 3,900) \times 5.1 = DM \: quantity \: variance

quantity variance  $510.00

DIRECT LABOR VARIANCES

(standard\:rate-actual\:rate) \times actual \: hours = DL \: rate \: variance

std rate  $8.70

actual rate  $8.40

actual hours 6,200

(8.7 - 8.4) \times 6,200 = DL \: rate \: variance

rate variance  $1,860.00

(standard\:hours-actual\:hours) \times standard \: rate = DL \: efficiency \: variance

std  hours 6000.00

actual hours 6200.00

std rate  $8.70

(6,000 - 6,200) \times 8.70 = DL \: efficiency \: variance

efficiency variance  $(1,740.00)
