Answer:

$800,000

Explanation:

The computation of the compensation expense for the year 1 is shown below:

= (Number of granted options × fair value of each option) ÷ (number of vesting period given)

where,

Number of granted options is 200,000

Fair value of each option is $12

And, the number of vesting period given is 3 years

So, the compensation expense for the year 1 is

= (200,000 stock options × $12) ÷ (3 years)

= $800,000

Erie Company manufactures a mobile fitness device called the Jogging Mate. The company uses standards to control its costs. The
Tom [10]

a. Standard labor-hours is 7920 hours.

b. Standard labor cost allowed is $42,768.

c. The labor spending variance is $1588(U).

d.  The labor rate variance is $1706 and the labor efficiency variance $3294(U).

e.  The variable overhead rate is $5971(U) and efficiency variances for the month $5580(U).

<u>Explanation:</u>

a)Standars hours(SH) allowed to make 19800 jogging mates

=SH per unit \times 19800

=(24/60)*19800

=7920 hours

24/60 has been taken to convert minutes into hours.  

b)Standard Labor Cost (SC) of 19800 jogging mates

=19800 \times SC per unit=19800 \times $2.16\\=$42,768

=$42,768

c)Labour Spending Variance

=Standard Cost - Actual Cost(AC)=$42,768 - $44,356=$1588(U)

=$1588(U)

d)Labor Rate Variance  

=(SR per hour-AR per hour)\timesAH=(5.4-5.2)*8530=$1706(F)

=$1706

Actual Hours(AH) * Actual Rate per hour(AR)= Actual Cost(AC)

8530 \times AR = $44,356

AR = \frac{44356}{8530}\\ \\AR = 5.2

Labor Efficiency Variance

=(SH-AH) \times SR\\=(7920-8530)*$5.4=$3294(U)

=$3294(U)

e) Variable overhead rate variance = Actual hours worked  (Standard overhead rate - Actual overhead rate)

= 8530  (4.5 - 5.20)

= $5971(U)

Actual overhead rate = $44,356 / 8530 = 5.20

Variable overhead efficiency variance = Standard overhead rate   (Standard hours - Actual hours)

= 4.50  (7290 - 8530)

= $5580(U).

Gene is a self-employed taxpayer working from his home. His net business profit is $7,000 before home office expenses. His alloc
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

D) Only $7,000 of the office expenses can be deducted; the remaining $1,000 can be carried forward to future tax years.

Explanation:

Since Gene's profit before home expenses is only $7,000, he can only deduct up to $7,000 for this year. That way his net profit will be $0. The remaining $1,000 must be carried forward so that he can use them in the future, probably next year he will add them to his deductions. If a business losses money, the government pay you anything, taxes only work one way, you have to pay.

An investor in Treasury securities expects inflation to be 1.6% in Year 1, 3.05% in Year 2, and 3.85% each year thereafter. Assu
mixer [17]

Answer:

The difference between two securities is 0.89%.

Explanation:

Inflation premium for the next three and five years:

Inflation premium (3) = (1.6% + 3.05% + 3.85%) ÷ 3

                                  = 2.83%

Inflation premium (5) = (1.6% + 3.05% + 3.85% + 3.85% + 3.85%) ÷ 5

                                  = 3.24%

Real risk-free rate = 2.35%

Since default premium and liquidity premium are zero on treasury bonds, we can now solve for the maturity risk premium:

Three-year Treasury securities = Real risk-free rate + Inflation premium (3) + MRP(3)

6.80% = 2.35% + 2.83% + MRP(3)

MRP (3) = 1.62%

Similarly,

5-year Treasury securities = Real risk-free rate + Inflation premium (5) + MRP(5)

8.10% = 2.35% + 3.24% + MRP(3)

MRP (5) = 2.51%

Thus,

MRP5 - MRP3 = 2.51% - 1.62%

                         = 0.89%

Therefore, the difference between two securities is 0.89%.

Scott Company sells merchandise with a one-year warranty. Sales consisted of 2,500 units in Year 1 and 2,000 units in Year 2. It
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

Scott Company must record the warranty expense and liability regarding the products sold during the years that they occur. For example, the following journal entry must be made to record the warranty expense for year 1:

Dr Warranty expense 25,000

    Cr Warranty liability 25,000

During year 2, they will record the warranty expense for that year:

Dr Warranty expense 20,000

    Cr Warranty liability 20,000

That means that during year 3, the only warranty expense recorded will be the one related to the goods sold during that year.
