Answer:

400; 800

Explanation:

Contribution:

Product X:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= 100 - 70

= 30,

Product Y:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= 80 - 40

= 40,

Product Z:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= 25 - 20

= 5

Machine hours required :

Product X:

= Machine time per unit × Monthly demand

= 3 ×  300

= 900,

Product Y:

= Machine time per unit × Monthly demand

= 2 × 200

= 400,

Product Z:

= Machine time per unit × Monthly demand

= 1 × 500

= 500

Contribution per machine hour:

Product X = Contribution ÷ Machine time per unit

                 = 30 ÷ 3

                 = 10,

Product Y = Contribution ÷ Machine time per unit

                 = 40 ÷ 2

                 = 20,

Product Z = Contribution ÷ Machine time per unit

                = 5 ÷ 1

                = 5

It is highest for Y, so produce maximum amount of Y, then X and then Z

Y needs 400 hrs, we are left with 800 hours, so produce 800 hours of X.

Held-to-Maturity Bond Investment On January 1, 2016, Weaver Company purchased as held-to-maturity debt securities $500,000 face
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

b. $461,820

Explanation:

The computation of the amount reported in the balance sheet is shown below:

But before that we need to find out the amortization of discount which is

= Purchased value of bond × interest rate of return - face value of bond × interest rate

= $456,200 × 10% - $500,000 × 8%

= $45,620 - $40,000

= $5,620

Now the amount reported is

= Purchased value + discount amortization

= $456,200 + $5,620

= $461,820

Hence, the option b is correct

3. This year, Paula and Simon (married filing jointly) estimate that their tax liability will be $200,000. Last year, their tota
choli [55]

Answer:

When a taxpayer has an underpayment of estimated tax or fall behind on his/her tax prepayment, then he/she is required to pay a penalty on Form 2210. This penalty is called underpayment penalty.

According to the tax laws, Mr. P and Ms. S can avoid an underpayment penalty if their withholding's and estimated tax payments equal or exceed one of the following two safe harbors:

  • 90 percent of current tax liability ($200,000 x 90% = $180,000)
  • 110 percent of previous year tax liability (110% x $170,000 = $187,000)

From the above calculation, it is clear that Mr. P and Ms. S's withholding's ($175,000) do not equal or exceed the amount of two safe harbors. So, they need to increase their withholding's or make estimated payments to avoid underpayment penalty.

If Mr. P and Ms. S increase their withholding's by $5,000 or make estimated payments of $1,250

per quarter ($5000/4), they can avoid the underpayment penalty.

Mr. Paula and Simon average gross income is greater than $150,000, so 110% is taken.
