Fifteen years ago, Mr. Fairhold paid $50,000 for a single-premium annuity contract. This year, he began receiving a $1,300 month
marusya05 [52]

Answer: $1091.61

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that fifteen years ago, Mr. Fairhold paid $50,000 for a single-premium annuity contract and that this year, he began receiving a $1,300 monthly payment that will continue for his life and based on his age, he can expect to receive $312,000. The amount of each monthly payment is taxable income to Mr. Fairhold goes thus:

Based on the question, Mr Fairhold will have a tax free return of the $50,000 paid. The exclusion ratio will be the investment divided by the expected return. This will be:

= $50,000/$312,000

= 0.1603

Since he received monthly payment of $1,300 and exclusion ratio is 0.1603, the tax free return on investment will be:

= $1,300 × 0.1603

= $208.39

Taxable annuity payment will now be:

= $1300 - $208.39

= $1091.61

Bustillo Inc. is working on its cash budget for March. The budgeted beginning cash balance is $40,000. Budgeted cash receipts to
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Cash borrow = $15,500.

Explanation:

Given,

The company budgeted ending cash balance is $61,500.

We know,

Budgeted ending cash balance = Budgeted beginning cash balance + Budgeted cash receipts - Budgeted cash disbursements + Budgeted cash borrow

Given,

Budgeted ending cash balance = $61,500.

Budgeted beginning cash balance = $40,000.

Budgeted cash receipts = $121,000

Budgeted cash disbursements = $115,000.

Budgeted cash borrow = ?

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

$61,500 = $40,000 + $121,000 - $115,000 + Cash borrow

Or, $61,500 - ($40,000 + $121,000 - $115,000) = Cash borrow

Or, $61,500 - $40,000 - $121,000 + $115,000 = Cash borrow

Or, $176,500 - $161,000

Or, $15,500 = Cash borrow

Or, Cash borrow = $15,500.

Therefore, cash borrow for March is $15,500.

Aquatic Equipment Corporation decided to switch from the LIFO method of costing inventories to the FIFO method at the beginning
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

a. The balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2021) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years is $744,450.

b. Debit Inventory for $53,000; Credit Income tax payable for $18,550; and Credit Retained earnings for $34,450.

Explanation:

Note: There is an error in the date stated in the requirements of the question as they are different from the date in the body of the question. The requirements are therefore restated with the correct date before answering the question as follows:

a. Calculate the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2021) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years.

b. Prepare the journal entry at the beginning of 2021 to record the change in principle.

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

a. Calculate the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2021) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years.

The effect of LIFO is to overstate the cost of goods sold and understated the retained earnings.

The balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2021) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years can therefore be determined as follows:

Inventory understatement net of tax = $53,000 * (100% - Tax rate) = $53,000 * (100% - 35%) = $34,450

Therefore, we have:

Retained earnings under FIFO = Retained earnings as reported + Inventory understatement net of tax = $710,000 + $34,450 = $744,450

Therefore, the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2021) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years is $744,450.

b. Prepare the journal entry at the beginning of 2021 to record the change in principle.

The journal entry will look as follows:

<u>Details                                                       Debit ($)        Credit ($)    </u>

Inventory                                                    53,000

Income tax payable (53,000 * 35%)                                18,550

Retained earnings                                                            34,450

<u><em>(To record the change in principle.)                                                 </em></u>
