Answer:
d. $22.75
Explanation:
We know that
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit
where,
Selling price per unit is $35
And, the contribution margin is 35%
So, the Contribution margin per unit would be
= Selling price per unit × contribution margin
= $35 × 35%
= $12.25
Now after finding out the contribution margin per unit, the variable cost per unit would be
= $35 - $12.25
= $22.75
And, the direct material and labor cost is a variable cost
Answer:
$199,149.08
Explanation:
a = 100, i=0.06/12=0.005, n=40*12=480, FVA = Future value of annuity
FVA = A*[(1+i)^n - 1/ i]
FVA = 100 * [(1+0.005)^480 - 1 / 0.005]
FVA = 100 * [9.957454/ 0.005]
FVA = 100 * 1991.4908
FVA = $199,149.08
So, the amount that will be in his account when he retires at age 62 is $199,149.08.
Answer:
Bloomington Inc.
Indication of Liability Amount on the Balance Sheet at December 31, 2019:
Situation Liability Amount
a. $220,000
b. $0
c. $3,100
d. $0
Explanation:
For Bloomington to recognize a liability or record it in its financial statements, the probability that an outflow of economic resources will occur in the future must be established. Bloomington must also be able to reliably measure the amount of the liability. These two conditions are satisfied in situations A and C. For situation B, the contract is not in force as at December 31, 2019, since the drill press will be purchased in January, 2020. Lastly, for situation D, the amount of the profit-sharing bonus cannot be reasonably and reliably ascertained because the amount to apply the 5% is not clear or known.
Answer:
The differences between US GAAP and IFRS pose an extra cost because international corporations must prepare two separate accounting statements. But besides that, other potential risks include paying higher taxes than what the companies should pay int their home countries and the uncertainty generated by changing rules.
Not only do current tax rates affect potential investments, e.g. currently companies in the US pay relatively low corporate taxes (Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017) but these benefits end on 2025. But also different methods for valuating physical assets and R&D costs can represent higher than expected taxes. E.g. depending on a company's needs, it may be beneficial to expense all R&D costs right away, or maybe it would be better to capitalize some of them after technical feasibility is achieved (IFRS).
The main advantage of having uniform rules (e.g. UCC) is that all the companies know exactly what to expect and how to act. Certainty decreases risk, and less risk reduces costs.
Explanation:
In the US, the vast majority of firms use US GAAP as their accounting method, but around the world the IFRS method is used.
Physical asset valuation is the process of determining the value of your physical assets including P, P & E, and also inventories.
- When valuing inventories IFRS uses FIFO, while US GAAP allows FIFO, LIFO or weighted average costing methods. US GAAP also values inventory at lesser of cost or market value, while IFRS values inventory at lesser of cost or net realizable value.
- US GAAP uses the cost method to determine the historic cost of an asset, while IFRS uses basically the same method but does not include all the costs of location of the assets (e.g. cost of removing or clearing a facility).
- US GAAP recognizes non-monetary exchanges while IFRS doesn't.
- IFRS also allows the cost of asset to be revalued, which can result in unrealized gains or losses. The US GAAP only considers historic costs.
- There are also other minor differences regarding depreciation, disposals and impairment rules.
Research and development must be expensed right away under US GAAP, while IFRS basically requires the same, it allows some capitalization of development expenditures if certain criteria is met (technical feasibility is achieved).
