Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Unexpected increases in the number of suppliers.

Explanation:

Frauds or money cleansing usually requires the help of a network of different business interconnected to clear the illegal funds with the excuse of having made commercial activities that never took place. In most cases, accounting documents are faked so that the proceeds of the questionable funds may seem as legal as possible.

In that case, if a company counts with more suppliers and fraud is taking place in the organization, <em>they will have the excuse of making more payments so more funds can go out of the company</em>.

Answer:

<u>(A) Compute learn on equity as follows: </u>

Return on equity = (Net income/ Average stock holders’ equity) x 100  

Return on equity = $9,938 / $47,771

Return on equity = 20.8%

Average stock holders’ equity = (48,663 + $46878)/ 2

Average stock holders’ equity = $47,771

<em>Therefore, Return on equity is 20.8% </em>

<u>(B) Compute return on vet assets as follows: </u>

ROA = (Net income / Average total asset) × 100

ROA = ($9,938/100,585) × 100

ROA = 9.88%

Average total asset = (110,903 + 90,266) / 2  

Average total asset = $100,585

<em>Therefore, Return on net assets is 9.88% </em>

<u>(C) Compute return on net operating assets as follows: </u>

Return on net operating assets = (Net Operating income after tax / Average operating assets) × 100

Return on net operating assets = ($9,938 + 1,037) × 100 / 53,991

Return on net operating assets = ($10,975 / $53,991) × 100

Return on net operating assets = 20.33%

Average Operating assets = ($56,535 + 51,447) / 2

Average Operating assets = $53,991

<em>Therefore, Return on net operating assets is 20.33% </em>

Maya, who lives in California, just purchased her first home at a Trustee’s foreclosure sale. She was given a deed at the sale.
nevsk [136]

Answer:  Trustee's Deed

                             

Explanation: A trust deed in immovable property in the Americas refers to a legal instrument used to develop a significant stake in the immovable property under which legal title in capital assets is diverted to a trustee holding that as security for such a loan between a creditor and perhaps a lender.

From the perspective of the investor, a document of trust has a vital benefit as compared to a mortgage. If a borrower fails to pay on the loan, on part of the lender, the trustee has the right to repossess the land. Thus, from the above we can conclude that Maya would have been given a trustee's deed.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. Break even in unit sales =  (Fixed expenses ) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)

= $1,890,000 ÷ ($14,000 - $9,800)

= 450  units

b. Margin of safety = Expected sales - break even sales

= ($14,000 × 600) - ($14,000 × 450)

= $2,100,000

Contribution margin  = Sales - Variable cost

= ($14,000 × 600) - ($9,800 × 600)

= $2,520,000

Profit before earning and tax  = Contribution margin - Annual fixed cost

= $2,520,000 - $1,890,000

= $630,000

c. Degree of operating leverage = Contribution ÷  Profit before earning and tax

= $2,520,000 ÷ $630,000

= 4

d. Loss on Net operating income = (Sales) - (Variable cost) - Fixed expenses

=($11,000 × 600) - ($9,800 × 600) - $1,456,000

= -$736,000

hammer [34]

Answer:

a. predetermined overhead rate for each activity

initial concept formation  = $3,310 per Project Change

design  = $3 per Square feet

construction oversight  = $1,130 per Month

b. Classification

unit-level activities :

design

batch level activities :

initial concept formation

Product level activities :

design<em> </em>

Facility level activities :

initial concept formation

construction oversight

Explanation:

This question requires application of Activity Based Costing (ABC) method of allocating overheads.

For each overhead a rate is determined as follows :

<em>initial concept formation </em>

Predetermined overhead rate = Overhead Cost / Number of Project Changes

                                                  = $52,960/ 16

                                                  = $3,310 per Project Change

<em>design </em>

Predetermined overhead rate = Overhead Cost / Square feet

                                                  = $420,000/ 140,000

                                                  = $3 per Square feet

<em>construction oversight </em>

Predetermined overhead rate = Overhead Cost / Number of Months

                                                  = $118,650/ 105

                                                  = $1,130 per Month

<em>Classification</em>

The way the activity is to be absorbed in costing determine its classification
