Sony introduces a new compact music player to compete with Apple's iPod that carries a two-year warranty against manufacturer's

By the end of the first year of selling the product, total sales are $29.1 million, and actual warranty expenditures are $110,000. What amount (if any) should Sony report as a liability at the end of the year

Answer:

$763,000

Explanation:

Warranty costs = 3%

Total sales = $29.1million ($29,100,000)

actual warranty expenditures = $110,000

First we multiply warranty cost by total sale

$29100000 x 0.03

= $873,000

Then

Subtract $110,000 from $873,000

$873000 - $110000

= $763,000

Sony should report $763,000 as liability

Artist 52 [7]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

Calculation of Minimum lease annual payments from (MLP)    

Year  MLP from lessor       Present value                   Present valur of

                  point of view    factor 8%                    cash flows

1                  $4,703                  1 /(1.08)=0925   $4,350.28

2                    $4,703                  1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 2=0.857 $4,030.47

3                   $4,703               1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 3=0.793  $3,729.48

4                 $4,703               1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 4=0.735  $3,456.71

5                   $4,703              1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 5=0.680  $3,198.04

   

Total of Minimum

lease Payments  $23,515                                       $ 18,764.97

Add    

Unguaranteed

residual value(ugrv)  4000  1 /(1.08)^{\wedge 5}=0.680  $2,720.00

Asset to be recorded

in the books of lessor

(sum of mlp +ugrv)  $27,515                             $ 21,484.97

Here        

Gross Investment=$27515        

Lease receivable recorded in in the books of lessor(Phelps)(Mimum lease payments + Unguaranteed residual )value = $21484  $21,484      

Walsh (lessee) shoiuld be recorded the amount of present value of minimum lease payments + Guaranteed Residual value=$18764.97 as asset and liabilty            

b) In the books of phelps (lessor)        

2017.01.01  Lease Recievble from walsh ….Dr  $21,484      

                                 to Asset                              $21,484      

(Being Lease receivable recorded )        

In the books of Walsh (lessee)        

2017.01.01  Asset ac ……………Dr  $18,764        

         to Lease Liabilty(Lessor)               $18,764      

(Being the asset and liabilty recorded )                

2017.12.31  Depreciation ……Dr  3752        

                            to Asset                      3752        

(Beint Depreciation recorded charged during the year recorded 18764/5 provided for 5 years)

Here annual payment started from the at the beginning of year i.e annual lease payments start from 01.01.2018.

c)  If expected residual value of $4000 is guaranteed by walsh no changes will be made in classification of lease and there is no chages in asset recorded in Lessor books. But changes will be made in the books of lessee as present value of guaranteed residual value should be added to asset I.e $18764+Present vlue of $4000     $18764+2720=21484

d)   If expected residual value of $3000 is guaranteed by walsh no changes will be made in classification of lease and there is no chages in asset recorded in Lessor books But changes will be made in the books of lessee as present value of guaranteed residual value should be added to asset    I.e $18764+Present vlue of $3000       $18764+$2040=$20804

MicroTech Corporation maintains a capital structure of 40 percent debt and 60 percent common equity. To finance its capital budg
timama [110]

Answer:

weighted cost of capital for next year is 10.27 %.

Explanation:

Weighted cost of capital = Ke × (E/V) + Kd × (D/V)

Ke = Cost of Equity

    = Dividend Yield + Expected growth rate

    = $1.30 / $30.00 + 0.07

    = 0.11333 or 11.33 %

Kd = Cost of Debt

     = Interest × (1 - tax rate)

     = 11% × ( 1 - 0.21)

     = 8.69 %

Weighted cost of capital =  11.33 % × 60% + 8.69 % × 40%

                                         = 10.27 %

Musashi lives in Philadelphia and runs a business that sells pianos. In an average year, he receives $704,000 from selling piano
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Explicit costs are actual costs which Yakov must make while implicit costs are opposite of explicit costs, Implicit costs are opportunity costs.

Grouping them, we have the following;

•The wages and utility bills that Yakov pays. => Explicit costs

•The salary Yakov could earn if he worked as a paralegal.=>Implicit Costs

•The wholesale cost for the pianos that Yakov pays the manufacturer. => Explicit costs

•The rental income Yakov could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom =>Implicit Costs

2) Yakov's accounting and economic profit of his piano business.

Profit($)

Acct Profit.......... Economic Profit

$14,000. .............. -$9,000 (loss)

•Yakov's accounting profit will be his revenue - explicit costs.

Therefore accounting profit=

$704,000 - ($404,000 - $286,000) = $14,000

• Yakov's economic profit will be (accounting profit - (rent + forgone salary)

Therefore, accounting profit =

$14,000 - ($3,000+$20,000) = -$9,000
