Answer:

3.69

Explanation:

We know,

The productivity in sales revenue/labor expense = \frac{sales revenue}{labor expense}

Given,

Sales revenue = Units sold × Sale price per unit

Sales revenue = 1,217 units × $1,700

Sales revenue = $2,068,900

labor expense = Total labor hours × wage rate per hour

labor expense = 46,672 × $12

labor expense = $560,064

Putting the values into the formula, We can get,

The productivity in sales revenue/labor expense =  \frac{2,068,900}{560,064}

The productivity in sales revenue/labor expense = 3.69

UNO [17]

Answer:

The correct option is C, rent on the restaurant building

Explanation:

The ingredients used in preparing food is variable cost as it varies with the number of plates of food prepared.

Hours worked by cooks determine how much they are paid since the longer they stay the higher the pay,hence it is a variable cost.

Proposal #2 would establish local collection centers throughout the region to decrease the time it takes to convert credit payme
mezya [45]

Answer: a. $120,000

b. $6,000

c. Yes

Explanation:

a. It is said that the collection centres would help reduce the collection time by 2 days and that every day $60,000 comes in.

If the proposal will reduce the amount of time taken to collect by 2 days then that means that the amount freed up is the amount that they would have collected in two days had it not been for the system.

That amount would be,

= $60,000 * 2

= $120,000

b. If they used this free up cash to pay off a debt that was accumulating 5% per year then the 5% will be saved.

The amount saved therefore is,

= 120,000 * 5%

= $6,000

By retiring a $120,000 that was accruing $6,000 a year, the proposal has enabled that $6,000 to be saved instead.

c. The cost of implementing this proposal is $5,200 per year and yet the savings it gives in interest is $6,000.

As the savings are higher than the cost, the number definitely suggest that the project should be implemented because it is more beneficial than it costs.

Journal Entries

March 31, 2022:

Debit Bond Liability $2,247,000

Debit Interest Payable $42,000

Credit Cash $2,289,000

To record the recall of the bonds, including accrued interest.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

January 2, 2019: Face value of bonds issued = $2,100,000

Proceeds from the issue of the bonds at 98 =    2,058,000

Discount from the issue =                                        $42,000

Semi-annual amortization under straight-line = $2,100 ($42,000/20)

Coupon interest rate = 8% with payment made semiannually

Annual interest payment = $168,000 ($2,100,000 * 8%)

Semiannual interest payment = $84,000 ($2,100,000 * 4%)

Bonds duration = 10 years

March 31, 2022 Recall price of 107 = $2,247,000

Accrued interest from January 1 to March 31 = $42,000

Total payment to bondholders = $2,289,000

arlik [135]

Answer:

The interest payable is calculated based on the principal, interest rate, number of years of the loan or of the deposit.

Explanation:

Financial institutions is a company or a firm that deals with financial and monetary activities such as; loans, deposits, investments and currency exchange. Most financial transactions especially loans and savings usually have an interest rate that is set by the financial institution. The amount of interest can be paid by the borrower in a case where an individual takes a loan from the financial institution. Interest can also be paid by the financial institution in a case where the individual or group opens a savings account with the financial institution. In both cases, the interest rate is set by the financial institution. The amount of interest payable can be determined using the formula below;

A=PRT

where;

A=amount of interest payable

P=principle amount. The principal amount can either be the loan amount or the savings deposit amount

R=interest rate

T=number of years

The interest payable is calculated based on the principal, interest rate, number of years of the loan or of the deposit.
