Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

1. Able must pay Regal Corporation $599,400 on September 1, 2019, when the note matures.

2. The amount of Interest Able will recognize on this Notes Payable is 39,600

3. The total cash (including interest) paid for the building purchased by Able is $1,179,400

4. Payroll related expense does not come into picture in this question. So it is not answered.

Explanation:

1. According to the given data we have the following:

Rate of Interest = 11%

Therefore:      

Year                      Amount Interest      

September 1, 2018       $540,000      

December 31, 2018            $19,800      

September 1, 2019                     $39,600      

Total                      $540,000     $59,400

Therefore, Total Payable=Notes payable+Interest 540000      Total Payable= $540,000+$59,400

Total Payable=$599,400

Able must pay Regal Corporation $599,400 on September 1, 2019, when the note matures.

2. The amount of Interest Able will recognize on this Notes Payable is 39,600

3. To calculate The total cash paid for building purchased by Able including interest we have to make the following calculation:

Total cash paid for purchase of building=Cash paid at the time of purchase of building+Notes payable+Interest

Total cash paid for purchase of building=$580,000+$540,000+$59,400

Total cash paid for purchase of building=$1,179,400

The total cash (including interest) paid for the building purchased by Able is $1,179,400

4. Payroll related expense does not come into picture in this question. So it is not answered.

stepladder [879]

Answer:

C) banks falsely reporting the interest rates they offered in the interbank market.

Explanation:

The LIBOR rate is used all over the world to set banking interest rates. it reflects the cost of interbank loans. The LIBOR was used as a benchmark to charge interest rates to clients around the world, e.g. LIBOR + 2%.

The scandal involved many major banks, e.g. Deutsche Bank, Barclays, UBS, Rabobank, HSBC, Bank of America, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, the Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi, Credit Suisse, Lloyds, WestLB, Royal Bank of Scotland, and a long list of etc.

What the banks did was artificially manipulate the LIBOR rate by increasing or decreasing it to show artificial profits from trading activities. When the manipulation was discovered, it had been going on for at least 7 years, and some believe it started earlier.

A company developed the following per-unit standards for its product: 2 gallons of direct materials at $8 per gallon. Last month
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

$1,200 favorable

Explanation:

Given,

Standard unit price for direct materials, SP = $8 per gallon

Actual direct materials price, AP = $22,800

Actual number of direct materials, AQ = 3,000 gallons

Actual unit price for direct materials = Actual direct materials price ÷ Actual number of direct materials

Actual unit price for direct materials = $22,800 ÷ 3,000 gallons

Actual unit price for direct materials = $7.6 per gallon

We know,

Direct Material Price Variance  = (SP − AP ) × AQ

Direct Material Price Variance  = $(8 - 7.6) × 3,000 gallons

Direct Material Price Variance  = $1,200 favorable
