Higgs Enterprise's flexible budget cost formula for indirect materials, a variable cost, is $0.75 per unit of output. If the com

pany's performance report for last month shows a $600 favorable spending variance for indirect materials and if 8,000 units of output were produced last month, then the actual costs incurred for indirect materials for the month must have been:
a.$6,000


b.$5,400


c.$6,600


d.$5,200

Answer: b. $5,400

Explanation:

When there is a FAVOURABLE VARIANCE it means that the ACTUAL amount spent on a project is less than the amount that the company BUDGETED for it.

There is a favourable Variance in the scenario described above meaning that the budgeted costs for Indirect Materials was higher than the actual costs.

That means that the actual costs can simply be calculated by the following formula,

Actual Cost = Budgeted Amount - Positive Variance.

Budgeted Amount = 0.75 * 8,000 units

Budgeted Amount = $6,000

Actual Cost incurred is therefore,

= 6,000 - 600

= $5,400

Hence the correct answer is Option B

Art [367]

Paraguay's economy is afflicted by poverty and an absence of opportunities and advantages. However, a positive aspect of this situation is none.

The economy of Paraguay is a market financial system that is distinctly depending on agriculture products. In latest years, Paraguay's economic system has grown because of improved agricultural exports, especially soybeans. Paraguay has the monetary benefits of a young population and great hydroelectric energy.

Paraguay has been one of the poorest and most unequal nations at the continent for a long term. the total poverty rate — defined by using the world financial institution as those with an income of much less than $3.10 a day — in Paraguay rose in 2016 from 26.6 percent to 28.8 percent.

Answer:

$1140.28

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value of this investment is shown below:-

= Annual Cash flows × Present Value of Annuity Factor (r , n) - Initial Investment

as

Annual cash flows = $8600

Present Value of Annuity Factor (r , n)

r = 10% and n = 4 years

So, the Present Value of Annuity Factor will be the sum of the present value of 4 years at 10%

For Year 1 = 0.9091

For Year 2 = 0.8264

For Year 3 = 0.7513

For Year 4 = 0.6830

Total = 3.1698

Therefore,

Net Present Value = (Cash inflow × Total) -

Initial Investment

= ($8600 × 3.1698) - $26,120  

= $27,260.28 - $26,120

= $1140.28

The following statements are true. Explain why. a. If a bond’s coupon rate is higher than its yield to maturity, then the bond w
krok68 [10]

Answer:

A Bond's current market value represented by B_{0} is the present value of a bond as on today. Present value of a bond is it's future cash flows in the form of coupon payments and principal repayment discounted at investor's expectation in the market also referred to as Yield to maturity(YTM).

Present value of a bond is given by the following equation,

B_{0} = \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{1} }  +\ \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{2} } \ +\ ......+\ \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{n} } \  +\ \frac{RV}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{n} }

where C= Annual coupon payments

YTM = Yield to maturity/ cost of debt/ market rate of return on similarly priced bonds

RV = Redemption value of bond

n = number of years to maturity

<u>a. A bond's coupon rate is higher than it's yield to maturity, then the bond will sell for more than face value.</u>

Hence, if the company pays more interest than what is paid in the market on similarly priced bonds, such bonds shall sell at more than their face value.

<u>b. If a bond's coupon rate is lower than it's yield to maturity, then the bond's price will increase over it's remaining maturity.</u>

Similarly, if a bond pays lower rate of interest than the market rate of interest on similarly priced bonds, the bond shall sell at lower than it's face value and the price will increase over the remaining life of such bonds.

Whispering Winds Corp. uses the periodic inventory system and reports the following for the month of June.
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

a 1) FIFO

Closing Inventory = $1,760

Cost of Goods sold = $11,264

2) LIFO

Closing Inventory = $1,056

Cost of Goods sold = $11,968

b) FIFO gives the higher ending inventory than LIFO because the oldest items and lowest costs are allocated to the cost of goods sold.

c) LIFO results in higher cost of Goods sold because latest cost are allocated to the cost of goods sold and latest cost may include price increases.

Explanation:

FIFO

Closing inventory = 176 units * $10= $1760

Cost goods sold = 352 units + 704+528 -176 =1,408 units sold

from opening $2,112

12 June   = $5632

23 June   = ( 528-176) =352 units * 10 =3,520

total sold = $11,264

LIFO

Closing inventory = 176 units * 6 = $1,056

Cost goods sold =  352 units + 704+528 -176 =1,408 units sold

23 June = $5,280

12 June = $5,632

1 June  = (352-176) = 176 *6 = $1,056

Total = $11,968
