Answer:

C) Credit card companies want to increase profits by promoting slower repayment, and actual customer repayments will be anchored by the smaller payment options

Explanation:

It is always a bad idea to only pay the minimum monthly payment on a credit card debt, since the APR charged is much higher than other personal loans. If someone only makes the minimum payment and continues to purchase goods or pay services, their balance will continue to grow.

Tanzania [10]

Answer: A. Sales-type lease

Explanation:

A Sales type lease is one where the present value of all the lease payments of the Asset being leased is more than the cost/ carrying amount of the Asset.

The present value of the lease Payments is the Fair Value of the asset and as seen from the question, the fair value of the asset is more than the cost of the Asset. The lease will therefore be accounted for as a Sales type lease by the lessor.

It is worthy of note that this entry affects only the lessor.

Cash $ 14,000 Accounts payable $ 42,000 Receivables 70,000 Other current liabilities 28,000 Inventories 210,000 Total CL $ 70,00

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The ROE will increase by 7.69% to 14.29% from 7.5%

Explanation:

Current liabilities:

account payable 42,000

Other 28,000

Total Liabilities: 70,000

IF we want a current ratio of 2.3 then:

70,000 x 2.3 = 161,000 Current assets are needed.

Right now, the companny has 294,000 current assets so it will make inventories decrease by:

294,000 - 161,000 = 133,000

Then with that will purchase common stock:

280,000 - 133,000 = 147,000 common stock will be outstanding

The Return on equity will be:

21,000 / 147,000 = 0.142857 = 14.29%

While currently the ROE is:

21,000/280,000 = 0.075 = 7.5%

There will be an increase for: 14.29 - 7.5 = 6.79%

ackenzie, Inc. has collected the following data. (There are no beginning inventories.) Units produced 600 units Sales price $

Leokris [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units produced= 600

Direct materials $30 per unit

Direct labor $13 per unit

Variable manufacturing overhead $6 per unit

Fixed manufacturing overhead $17,800 per year

Ending inventory= 600 - 400= 200 units

Under absorption costing, the fixed overhead costs get allocated to the product cost. First, we need to calculate the unitary fixed overhead cost:

Unitary fixed overhead= 17,800/600= $29.67

Now, we can determine the total unitary cost:

Unitary cost= direct material + direct labor + total overhead

Unitary cost= 30 + 13 + (6 + 29.67)= $78.67

Ending inventory= 200*78.67= $15,736
