Answer:

The margin of safety for june is 2500 units.

Explanation:

The margin of safety is the additional units sold by a firm over its break even point.

The break even point is the point where the firm is making no profit or no loss.

To calculate the margin of safety, we first need to find out the break even point in units.

Break even in units = Fixed costs / contribution per unit

Where, contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

So,

Break even in units = 42000 / (42 - 14) = 1500 units

The margin of safety is = 4000 - 1500 = 2500 units

Identify the internal control weakness in the following situations. State how the person can hurt the company.
Degger [83]

Answer:

Identification of the Internal Control Weaknesses:

A.  There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of access control.  Jerry Miller as a security guard is not expected to have a master key to the cash box.  With this he can pilfer the cash.  If he prepares the report that shows the number of cars that parked on the lot, he is not supposed to also prepare the day's cash receipts.  Otherwise, he can state any number of cars as parked that he likes, and which corresponds to the cash he might leave in the Cash box since he also has a master key.

B.  There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of supervision,  proper reconciliations, and assets audit.  Sharon Fisher handles purchase transactions from the beginning to the close all alone with a third party.  This exposes the company to procurement frauds and collusion with suppliers.  She can purchase assets for the company at prices that would enrich her personally.

C. Forming an audit opinion on the basis of ratio analysis of last year's comparative financial statements exposes the company to audit risks.  While ratio analysis is part of the basis for forming audit opinions, it is surely not the first audit procedure to obtain audit evidence to support his audit opinion on the financial statements.  An auditor is expected to obtain sufficient audit evidence and perform audit substantive tests of financial statement assertions.  He or she is also expected to review the internal control system to ensure that it is operating effectively after establishing its existence and reviewing changes in internal controls.

Explanation:

Internal Controls are controls established by management in order to help it achieve business goals.  There are many internal controls, including Separation of Duties, Access Controls , Authorization and Approvals, Asset Audits, Reconciliations, and Data Backups.  The purposes of internal controls are to establish the reliability of financial reporting, ensure timely feedback on the achievement of operational or strategic goals, and achieve compliance with financial management laws, and accounting regulations.

Magazine sells subscriptions for for issues. The company collects cash in advance and then mails out the magazines to subscriber
Over [174]

Answer:

a. It should record revenue on a monthly basis

The Revenue Recognition principle in accounting posits that revenue should only be recognized after the goods and services that the revenue was paid for, have been delivered.

Seacoast Magazine has not delivered the magazine and will do so monthly for 18 months. It should therefore apportion profits to those months and only recognize the profit after the magazines are delivered.

b. Amount of revenue for 8 issues:

= 36/ 18 issues * 8 issues

= 2 * 8

= $16

Your portfolio is comprised of 40 percent of stock X, 15 percent of stock Y, and 45 percent of stock Z. Stock X has a beta of 1.
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Portfolio beta = 0.904

Explanation:

<em>The portfolio beta is the weighted average of all the beta associated with each of the different stock making up the portfolio. The betas are weighted using the probability associated with each of the stock.  </em>

Portfolio beta = WaRa + Wb+Rb + Wn+Rn  

W- weight of the beta, R- Stock beta -  

W- Probability of the beta, R- stock beta

Note that the sum of the probability of different outcomes should equal to one. Hence, the probability of economy being normal is

Portfolio beta = (0.4 × 1.24)  + (0.15 × 1.49) +  ( 0.45 ×0.41) =0.904

Portfolio beta = 0.904
