Michael Barry, Attorney, P.C. began the year with total assets of $126,000, liabilities of $74,000, and stockholders’ equity of

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The expenses can be recorded as follows;

Debit to the expenses of $33,000 and a credit to the cash account of $33,000.

Explanation:

The accounting equation is an equation that tends to balance a company's assets on one side and the sum of its liabilities and shareholders equity on the opposite side of the equation. It form the basis for the double-entry system in accounting that includes an accounts debit and credit. The debit is a sum to an amount that is owed, it is usually listed on the left hand-side of an account while the credit is a listing of a sum that is received usually on the right hand side of an account.

In the case of Michael Barry, the accounting equation;

Assets=liabilities+stockholders equity

Assets=$126,000

Liabilities=$74,000

Stockholders equity=$52,000

liabilities+stockholders equity=74,000+52,000=$126,000

The assets equals the sum of the liabilities and stockholders equity.

To record expenses paid of $33,000;

Debit Credit

Expenses $33,000

Cash $33,000

If you had a choice how much are you willing to pay per month to have access to and use the various social media platforms?

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer: $10 per month

Explanation:

$10 would be an ideal amount for me to pay to have access to the various social media sites if the major sites are on offer.

I think this amount reasonable because I do not use social media all that much but I would still like access to a variety of them. I would essentially therefore, be paying for my reduced time on the net.

Some might say that the companies might not make a profit if they charge $10 a month but I think they will because they make most of their money from ads so it would be good for them to offer the lowest subscription prices so that they can capture more people which will appeal to advertisers.

3-30 Operating leverage. Cover Rugs is holding a 2-week carpet sale at Josh’s Club, a local warehouse store. Cover Rugs plans to

Leni [432]

Answer:

The step by step answer to your problem is given below:

Explanation:

1A) Break even point for option 1:

Sales- Variable cost= Fixed cost

Q* $950-Q*$760= $7410

Q*$190= $7410

Q=$7410/$190

Q= 39 carpets

1B) Breakeven point for Option 2

Sales- variable cost-rent cost= 0

Q*$950- $760*Q- (Q*950*10%)= 0

95Q= 0

Q= 0

2. At what level of revenues will Cover Rugs earn the same operating income under either option?

Operating income under Option 1 = $190Q - $7140

Operating income under Option 2 = $95Q

We have to find Q such that $190Q - $7140 = $95Q

Q=$7410/$95= 78 Carpets

Revenue= $950 x 78 = $74,100

For Q = 78 Carpets, operating income under both option 1 and 2 will be = $7410

a. For what range of unit sales will Cover Rugs prefer Option 1? b. For what range of unit sales will Cover Rugs prefer Option 2?

For Q > 78, say 79 carpets:

Option 1 gives operating income= (190*79) - 7410= $7600

Option 2 gives operating income= 95*79= $7505

So color rugs will prefer Option 1.

For Q < 78, say 77 carpets:

Option 1 gives operating income= (190*77) - 7410= $7220

Option 2 gives operating income= 95*77= $7315

So color rugs will prefer Option 2.

3. Calculate the degree of operating leverage at sales of 65 units for the two rental options.

Operating Leverage= $\frac{Contribution margin}{Operating Income}$

= Contribution margin per unit x Numbers of Carpet Sold= Contribution Margin

Under Option 1,

Contribution Margin per unit= $950-$760=$190,

Operating income= $190*65-$7410= $4940.

Degree of Operating Leverage= $\frac{190*65}{6175}$

=2.5

Under Option 2,

Contribution Margin per unit= $950-$760-$760-0.10*$950=$95,

Operating income= $95x65-$0= $6175.

$\frac{95*65}{6175}$

=1.0

4. Briefly explain and interpret your answer to requirement 3.

The degree of operating leverage helps managers calculate and anticipate the effects of fluctuations in sales on operating income. The calculation in requirement 3 show that when sales are 65 units, a % change in sales and contribution margin will result in 2.5 times that % change in operating income for option 1. But the same % change in Option 2 because there are no fix costs attached in option 2.

Leigh Delight Candy, Inc. is choosing between two bonds in which to invest their cash. One is being offered from Hershey's and w

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Hersey's bond = $1125.513

Mars bond = $1172.259

Explanation:

Hersey bond;

Period(t) = 10years = 40(quartely)

Coupon (C) = $30

Rate (r) = 0.1 = 0.025(quarterly)

Pay at maturity(p) = $1000

Using the both present value (PV) and compound interest formula ;

PV =[ C × (1 - (1+r)^-t) ÷ r] + [p ÷ (1 + r)^t]

PV = [30×(1-(1.025)^-40)÷0.025] + [1000÷(1.025)^40]

PV =( 753.083251562) + (372.4306236)

PV = $1125.513

Mars bond;

Period(t) = 20years = 80(quartely)

Coupon (C) = $30

Rate (r) = 0.1 = 0.025(quarterly)

Pay at maturity(p) = $1000

PV =[ C × (1 - (1+r)^-t) ÷ r] + [p ÷ (1 + r)^t]

PV = [30×(1-(1.025)^-80)÷0.025] + [1000÷(1.025)^80]

PV =(1033.55451663) + (138.704569467)

PV = $1172.259
