Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": nominal damages.

Explanation:

Nominal damages are granted as monetary rewards when a legal fault takes place but there has not been substantial damage because of it. It is said that the fact of granting the fault represents more of a moral act. Usually, if awarded, the plaintiff may receive $1 or $2.

In the case, as Max suffered no loss because of Lew's delay while painting his house, if he decides to sue him he will be awarded nominal damage for the contract breach.

Explanation:

                               17% Debt       50% Debt

Sales                      $500,000      $500,000

Less: Cost              $450,000      $450,000

Less: Interest         <u>$5,546</u>           <u>$17,400</u>

Profit before tax   $44,454        $32,600

Less: Tax at 35%  <u> $15,559</u>          <u>$11,410</u>

Net Income           <u> $28,895</u>        <u>$21,190</u>

Equity                     $361,050        $217,500

Return on Equity   8.00%             9.74%

Change in ROE = 9.74% - 8.00% = 1.74%

Workings

Interest (17% Debt) = 43,500*17%*7.5% = $5,546

Interest (50% Debt) = 43,500*50%*8% = $17,400

Tax (17% Debt) = $44,454 * 0.35 = 15,559

Tax (50% Debt) = $32,600 * 0.35 = 11,410

Equity (17% Debt) =435,000*83% = 361,050        

Equity (50% Debt) = 435,000*50% = $217,500

Return on Equity = $28,895/$361,050 = 8.00%

Return on Equity = $21,190/$217,500 = 9.74%

zhenek [66]

Answer:

$3,927

Explanation:

For the computation of bid price first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-

Manufacturing overhead rate = Overhead cost ÷ Machine hours

= 45,000 ÷ 100,000

= $0.45

Total manufacturing cost charged to the school

= 2,000 + 400 + (900 × 0.45)

= $2,805

Markup cost = $2,805 × 0.4

= $1,122

Bid price of job = Total manufacturing cost charged to school + Markup cost

= $2,805 + $1,122

= $3,927

In 2021, CPS Company changed its method of valuing inventory from the FIFO method to the average cost method. At December 31, 20
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Entry to record adjustment:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

Explanation:

The question relates to a change in accounting policy. According to IAS 8 (changes in accounting policy and estimate), a change in accounting policy is to be reflected retrospectively and prospectively, which means any changes should be implemented by bringing changes in the past records. Since CPS company has been using FIFO method, the inventory has been overstated in the financial statements. A shift to AVCO has resulted in a decrease in inventory value.

The value of inventory has to be reduced as a result of change in accounting policy (i.e $38m - $28.6m). This is the closing inventory so a reduction in the value of closing inventory results in an increase in cost of goods sold (COGS), therefore, the adjusting entry will be aimed at reducing inventory and increasing cost of goods sold, see as follows:

Entry:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m
