Greeley [361]

Answer:

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797

Explanation:

Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production

<u>Materials </u>

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%) = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 50%) = 925

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials = 6,725

<u>Conversion</u>

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%) = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 20%) = 370

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Conversion Costs = 6,170

Calculation of Cost per Equivalent units of Production

Materials

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

= ($ 8,700 + $ 91,000) ÷ 6,725

= $14.825

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

= ($ 8,500 + $ 126,300) ÷ 6,170

= $21.848

Calculation of cost of ending work in process inventory

Materials ( 925 × $14.825) = $13,713.12

Conversion Cost ( 370 × $21.848) = $8,083.76

Total = $21,796.88

Thus,

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797.

Derek plans to retire on his 65th birthday. However, he plans to work part-time until he turns 75.00. During these years of part

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Annual deposit= 13,346.55

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Exactly one year after the day he turns 75.0 when he fully retires, he will begin to make annual withdrawals of $129,100.00 from his retirement account until he turns 94.00. After this final withdrawal, he wants $1.85 million remaining in his account.

He will make contributions to his retirement account from his 26th birthday to his 65th birthday.

Assume an 8.00% interest rate.

First, we need to calculate the amount of money needed at 65.

39 years*129,100 + 1,850,000= $6,884,900

We need to calculate the value at 65:

PV= 6,884,900/(1.08^10)= $3,189,040.85

We need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (3,189,040.85*0.08)/[(1.08^39)-1]= $13,346.55

Under which circumstances must an employer provide a guardrail?

Arada [10]

Answer:

A, B and D

Explanation:

Under OSHA laws, employers must provide a safe workplace for the employees. All the danger areas must be indicated with either painting or signage. Using guard rails is an excellent way of demarcating danger zones. They keep employees away from dangerous spots. In this case, an employer should use guard rails in the following circumstances.

1.Around every floor hole into which a worker can accidentally walk. The guard rails will form a barrier that will prevent accidental falls into the hole.

2.Around every open-sided platform, floor, or runaway that is 4 feet or higher off the ground or next level. The guard rails form a wall that prevents employees in raised levels from falling to the ground.

3. Regardless of height, if a worker can fall into dangerous machines or equipment. In case of an incident, the guard rails will stop an employee from falling into dangerous machines or equipment.

An appraiser valued a subsidiary of Signal Co. at between $230 million and $260 million. One month later, Burmah Oil offered to

Goshia [24]

Answer:

No, because they violated the duty of care

Explanation:

Business judgement rule is a provision that protects the management of a business from frivolous legal action concerning the way it does business.

The court assumes that the management acts in good faith in its fiduciary role, standard of loyalty, prudence, and care.

Duty of care is breached when the management do not make reasonable effort to prevent injury or loss.

In this instance Signal board is not protected by the business judgement rule because they violated duty of care.

Although the offer by Burmah oil is above the valuation a month ago, the board did not bother to do a present valuation or find out if other companies want to buy the subsidiary at a higher price.
