Andrews [41]

At Moss’ target net income the sales revenue will be $227, 500

<u>Solution:</u>

Sales revenue required to attain target net income of $35,000 will be as follows,

Myriad Solutions, Inc. issued 10% bonds, dated January 1, with a face amount of $320 million on January 1, 2021, for $283,294,72
otez555 [7]

Answer:

The net amount of the liability Myriad would report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021 is $287,524,896

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the amount of discount on the bond at the time of issuance

Discount on Bond = Face value - Issuance value = $320,000,000 - $283,294,720 = $36,705,280

June 30, 2021

Now we will use the effective interest method to calculate the amortization of discount on the bond.

Amortization of Discount = ( Carrying Value x Market yield ) - ( Face value x Coupon rate ) = ( $283,294,720 x 12% ) - ( $320,000,000 x 10% ) = $33,995,366.4 - $32,000,000 = $1,995,366.4 = $1,995,366

Carrying value = $283,294,720 + $1,995,366 = $285,290,086

December 31, 2021

Now we will use the effective interest method to calculate the amortization of discount on the bond.

Amortization of Discount = ( Carrying Value x Market yield ) - ( Face value x Coupon rate ) = ( $285,290,086 x 12% ) - ( $320,000,000 x 10% ) = $34,234,810.32 - $32,000,000 = $2,234,810.32 = $2,234,810

Carrying value = $285,290,086 + $2,234,810 = $287,524,896

Rubio recently invested $20,000 (tax basis) in purchasing a limited partnership interest. His at-risk amount is $15,000. In addi
kati45 [8]

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

From the question, the initial tax basis of Rubio is $20,000.  

In a partnership, share of profit will increase the initial basis while share of loss will reduce it.  

As the share of Rubio in the limited partnership loss for the year is $22,000, it will make his tax basis to fall to zero because the loss of $22,000 is greater than his tax basis. The amount by which the loss is greater than his tax basis, i.e. $2,000 ($22,000 - $20,000) will be the loss that is allowed considering only the tax basis loss limitations.  

Therefore, $2,000 loss is allowed to be carried over due only to the tax basis loss limitation.

b. Total Factory Overhead Cost

                   Labor      Per Unit Cost         Product units  Total Costs

                   Hours   (Labor hours x $34)                          per product

Flutes            0.4             $13.60                   2,100            $28,560

Clarinets        1.5               51.00                       800             40,800

Oboes           1.2               40.80                    1,200               57,120

Total                                                                                  $126,480

Explanation:

a) Data & Calculations:

Budgeted factory overhead = $126,480

                         Budgeted             Direct labor    Total      

               Production Volume    hours per unit    Hours

Flutes           2,100 units                   0.4                 840

Clarinets        800                             1.5               1,200

Oboes         1,400                             1.2               1,680

Total hours                                                          3,720

c) Plantwide overhead allocation per unit = $126,480/3,720 = $34

d) The plantwide overhead rate is the dividend from total overhead costs and total labor hours.  This rate is applied to the products based on the number of hours used to product a unit to obtain the per unit cost rate for each product.  The resulting rate is further applied to the units produced in each product type to get the total cost of overhead for each product.
