Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": False.

Explanation:

Social loafing is the act in which employees underperform while given tasks individually compared when working in groups. Under this scenario, it is unlikely employers would provide extra compensation to workers because their productivity does not justify the reward.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

1. Calculate the amount of interest that Mason should capitalize in 2021 and 2022 using the weighted-average method.

interest capitalized in 2021 = $166,189

interest capitalized in 2022 = $77,956

2. What is the total cost of the building?

total construction costs ($6,375,000) + capitalized interests ($244,145) = $6,619,145

3. Calculate the amount of interest expense that will appear in the 2021 and 2022 income statements.

interest expense 2021 = $1,148,000 - $166,189 = $981,811

interest expense 2022 = $1,148,000 - $77,956 = $1,070,044

Explanation:

a 14%, $3,000,000 loan obtained on January 1, 2021

building was completed on September 30,2022

January 1, 2021: $1,050,000 x 12/12 = $1,050,000

March 1, 2021: $870,000 x 10/12 = $725,000

June 30, 2021: $390,000 x 6/12 = $195,000

October 1, 2021: $690,000 x 3/12 = $172,500

total weighted average expense 2021 = $2,142,500

weighted average interest rate:

$3,000,000 x 14% = $420,000

$4,900,000 x 5% = $245,000

$6,900,000 x 7% = $483,000

average interest rate = $1,148,000 / $14,800,000 = 7.7568%

interest capitalized in 2021 = $2,142,500 x 7.7568% = $166,189

January 31, 2022: $675,000 x 8/9 = $600,000

April 30, 2022: $990,000 x 5/9 = $550,000

August 31, 2022: $1,710,000 x 1/9 = $190,000

total weighted average expense 2021 = $1,340,000

weighted average interest rate:

$3,000,000 x 14% = $420,000

$4,900,000 x 5% = $245,000

$6,900,000 x 7% = $483,000

average interest rate = $1,148,000 / $14,800,000 = 7.7568%

interest capitalized in 2022 = $1,340,000 x 7.7568% x 9/12 = $77,956

Sunset Travel Agency specializes in flights between Toronto and Jamaica. It books passengers on Hamilton Air. Sunset’s fixed cos

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

1 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = 6% * $1,500 = $90 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $43 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $90 – $43 = $47 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $47 = 500 tickets

1 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $47 = 712.77, or 713 tickets

2 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = 6% * $1,500 = $90 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $90 – $40 = $50 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $50 = 470 tickets

2 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $50 = 670 tickets

3 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = $60 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $60 – $40 = $20 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $20 = 1,175 tickets

3 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $20 = 1,675 tickets

Comment:

Due a fall in commission, there are appreciable increases in the break-even point and the number tickets that have to be sold to meet a targeted operating income of $10,000.

4 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = $60 + $5 = $65 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $65 – $40 = $25 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $25 = 940 tickets

4 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $25 = 1,340 tickets

Comment:

The $5 delivery fee brings about an increased contribution margin higher than before, which makes both the break-even point and the tickets sold to achieve operating income of $10,000 to fall.
