Answer:

C. A surplus of agricultural goods

Explanation:

Un-intervened markets are at equilibrium where Market Demand = Market Supply. Market Supply curve is upward sloping, due to price - supply direct relationship. Market demand curve is downward sloping, due to price - demand inverse relationship. Both curves intersect at equilibrium.

Price floor is minimum mandated price by government, below which a good cant be sold in the markets. It is usually set above market price, to protect the interest of sellers. Eg : Minimum Support price, of agricultural goods, set for protecting interests of sellers (farmers) from volatile prices.

This mandate set artificially high price : leads to supply being more than demand, as supply is directly & demand is inversely related to price. So, supply > demand implies that agricultural goods are at surplus in markets.

Calculate the degree of operating leverage for the company below:Expected Quantity 50,000Total costs300,000Variable costs215,000
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Degree of Operating Leverage = 1.34

The Operating cash flow increases by 12%

The new operating cash flow is $290200

Explanation:

% change in Operating Cash Flow = Degree of Operating Leverage  * % change in sales

There is need to calculate Degree of operating leverage first. Degree of operating leverage = Contribution / EBIT

Where Contribution = OCF + Fixed costs / OCF

Fixed costs= Total costs - variable costs = 300000 - 215000

Fixed Cost= 85000

 

Degree of operating leverage = (250000 + 85000) / 250000

DOL= 1.34

% change in OCF = DOL * % change in sales

% change in sales = (56000 - 50000) / 50000 = 12%

% change in OCF = 1.34 * 12% = 16.08%

New OCF = 250000 * (1+16.08%)

=$250000 * (1 + 0.1608)

=$250000(1.1608)

= $290200

Assume that on December 31, 2019, Kimberly-Clark Corp. signs a 10-year, non-cancelable lease agreement to lease a storage buildi
Anika [276]

Answer:

a) the journal entry to record the signing of the lease agreement:

December 31, 2019, lease agreement signed

Dr Right of use 483,360

   Cr Lease liability 483,360

the lease liability must record the present value of the 10 annual lease payments: $68,099 and 8% discount rate:

present value of an annuity due = payment + {payment x [1 - (1 + r)⁻⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾]/r}

  • payment = 66,699
  • r = 8%
  • n - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9

PV annuity due = 66,699 + {66,699 x [1 - (1 + 0.08)⁻⁹]/0.08} = 66,699 + 416,661 = $483,360

the journal entries to record the annual lease payments:

December 31, 2019, first annual lease payment

Dr Lease liability 66,699

   Cr Cash 66,699

December 31, 2020, second annual lease payment

Dr Lease liability 33,366

Dr Interest expense 33,333

   Cr Cash 66,699

interest expense = $416,661 x 8% = $33,333

December 31, 2020, depreciation expense

Dr Depreciation expense - leased building 48,336

   Cr Accumulated depreciation - leased building 48,336

December 31, 2021, third annual lease payment

Dr Lease liability 36,035

Dr Interest expense 30,664

   Cr Cash 66,699

interest expense = $383,295 x 8% = $30,664

December 31, 2021, depreciation expense

 Dr Depreciation expense - leased building 48,336

   Cr Accumulated depreciation - leased building 48,336

b) this would increase the right to use asset and lease liability by:

= -$5,000 + $1,000 = $4,000

c) this would increase the right to use asset and lease liability by:

= 5,000 + {5,000 x [1 - (1 + 0.08)⁻⁹]/0.08} = $36,234
