Explanation:

The Loan Amortization Schedule is most appropriate way to solve all parts of this problem.

The first step to construction of the Amortization Schedule is to determine the payments made annually, PMT (interest and principal).

Using a Financial calculator, this can be determined as ;

Pv = $16,000

r = 5%

n = 4

Fv = $0

p/yr = 1

Pmt = ?

Thus PMT is $4,512.19.

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

$5400 Favorable

Explanation:

Standard 2 hour at $15 per hour

Standard hours 2 hour per unit * 2900 units = 5800 hours

Total Standard cost = 5800 hours * $15 per hour =  $87,000

Actual hours = 5100

Actual cost = $81600 / 5100 hours = $16 per hour

Variance = Standard - Actual

Labor hour Variance Favorable = 700 hours (5800 hours - 5100 hours)

Total Labor variance = $5400 ($87,000 - $81,600)

Lillypad Toys is a manufacturer of educational toys for children. Six months ago, the company's research and development divisio
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Option A; INCREASED COMPETITION FROM IMITATORS.

Explanation:

Innovation occurs only when something is entirely new, having never been done before. Innovation also exist when something which may have been done elsewhere is done for the first time in a given industry.

On the other hand, when other competitors in the same industry subsequently copy the innovator, even though it is something new for them, then it is imitation.

When a company comes out with a new product, its competitors typically go on the defensive, doing whatever they can to reduce the odds that the offering will eat into their sales. Responses might include: cranking up marketing efforts, offering discounts to channel partners and even lobbying for regulations that would hinder the rival's expansion.

Therefore, Lilypad's managers should prepare for INCREASED COMPETITION FROM IMITATORS next.

             (Being Interest expense & Liability for the

               month September to December recorded)

Assumptions & Working notes:-

i) Since service is performed in the same financial year revenue is transferred from deferred revenue account to revenue account.

ii) Since 20 advertisements shown in the month of December only so expense related to those 20 is recognized in the month of December and remaining in the month of January.

$5,200/40*20 = $2,600

iii) Since salaries are paid in month of January but this is the expense for the month of December we recorded above entry.

iv) Interest Expense for months September to December is recorded and corresponding liability is created.

($60,000 * 8%) / 12 * 4 = $ 1,600
