Answer:

1.  $173,500

2. $ 71,000

Explanation:

Requirement 1: Solution

We can calculate the fair value of new parcel of land just by adding the current market price with additional cash paid to complete the transaction

Fair Value = Current market price + cash paid additionally

Fair Value = $150,000+$23,500

Fair value = $173,500

Requirement 2: Solution

We need to calculate Gain/loss on exchange first in order to record them on books. This can be done by just subtracting the land's book value from the current market price of land

Gain/loss on exchange = Current market price - book value

Gain/loss on exchange = $150,000 - $79,000

Gain/loss on exchange = $71,000

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Activity Rates

Consultation  $150

Drawings        $58

Modeling         $0.7

supervision       $190

Billings              $1037.5

Collections       $1642.5

Total overhead allocated: $ 126,826

Explanation:

First, we divide the cost of each activity over the base total to get the rate.

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}$Activity&Driver&cost&Total&Rate\\$Consultation&$contact hours&315000&2100&150\\$Drawings&$desing hours&104400&1800&58\\$Modeling&$square feet&32200&46000&0.7\\$supervision&$days&228000&1200&190\\$Billings&$jobs&8300&8&1037.5\\$Collections&$jobs&13140&8&1642.5\\\end{array}\right]

Now we apply this rate against the job activity measurement:

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}$Activity&Job&$Rate&$Allocated\\$Consultation&410&150&61500\\$Drawings&352&58&20416&\\$Modeling&7400&0.7&5180&\\$supervision&195&190&37050&\\$Billings&1&1037.5&1037.5&\\$Collections&1&1642.5&1642.5&\\$Total&&&126826&\\\end{array}\right]

Universal Mines Inc. operates three mines in West Virginia. The ore from each mine is separated into two grades before it is shi
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

this is a cost minimization problem, but it is missing some numbers, so I looked for similar questions (see attached PDF):

minimization equation = 20x₁ + 22x₂ + 18x₃ (costs per ton)

where:

x₁ = mine I

x₂ = mine II

x₃ = mine III

the constraints are:

4x₁ + 6x₂ + x₃ ≥ 54 (high grade ore)

4x₁ + 4x₂ + 6x₃ ≥ 65 (low grade ore)

x₁, x₂, x₃ ≤ 7 (only 7 days per week)  

using solver, the optimal solution is

2x₁, 7x₂, and 5x₃

a. The number of days Mine I should operate = <u>2 days </u>

b. The number of days Mine Il should operate = <u>7 days </u>

c. The number of days Mine III should operate = <u>5 days </u>

d. The total cost of the operation for next week = <u>$284,000</u>

An aging of a company's accounts receivable indicates that $3,000 are estimated to be uncollectible. If Allowance for Doubtful A
vodomira [7]

Answer: The correct answer is b. debit to Bad Debts Expense for $1,800.

Explanation: The company adopts the aging bad debt method on receivable. The aging method is a way of classifying receivables as uncollectible based on the length of time the receivables have been outstanding and the probability of recoverability of such receivables.

To make a provision for bad debt expense: debit is passed to bad debt expense while credit is passed to allowance for doubtful accounts. The bad debt expense reports to the income statement while allowance for doubtful accounts reports to the balance sheet (statement of financial position). Based on the question, the allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance of $1,200; however, $3,000 was estimated to be uncollectible. In order to restate the amount to $3,000, we need to debit bad debt expense and credit allowance for doubtful accounts with $1,800 ($3,000 - $1,200).

What is the expected impact of increased security measures imposed by the federal government on airlines and consumers? Instruct
Kipish [7]

Answer:

It will increase price for consumers, as well as cost for airlines (due to increased demand & supply)

Explanation:

Markets are at equilibrium when market demand = market supply.  

If federal government imposes more safety measures on airlines & consumers. Cost for airlines rise due to increased security expenditures, so supply decreases (shifts leftwards). Customers might feel safer amidst more personal & organisational security measures, so demand increases (shifts rightwards).

Both these factors lead to increase price for consumers, as well as cost for airlines
