Answer:

Using the cost method means that the stock is recorded at the price it cost to buy it back.

Journal entry is therefore:

Date                     Account Title                                       Debit                 Credit

Aug 1, 2014         Treasury Stock                                $72,000

                            Cash                                                                           $72,000

<u>Working:</u>

= 4,000 shares * 18

= $72,000

Emerald Printing Company projected the following information for next year:
elena55 [62]

Answer:

$200,000

Explanation:

Selling price per unit = $60.00

Contribution margin per unit = $45.00

Total fixed costs = $150,000

Tax rate = 30%

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Selling price

                                           = $45 ÷ $60

                                            = 0.75

Hence,

Break-even point =Total Fixed costs ÷ Contribution margin ratio

                              = 150,000 ÷ 0.75

                              = $200,000

Production estimates for July are as follows:
LenKa [72]

Answer:

d. 234,000 lbs. of A; e. 39,000 lbs. of B

Explanation:

For computing the number of pounds first we have to find out the production units which is shown below:

Production units = Sales units + ending inventory units - beginning inventory units

= 76,000 units + 10,500 units - 8,500 units

= 78,000 units

Now number of material pounds required is

Direct material            A          B  

One unit requires           3 lbs 1 ÷ 2 lbs

Multiply 78000 unit requires   234,000 39,000

We simply multiplied the production units with the required unit of each material i.e A and B so that the accurate number of pounds could arrive

How do trade-offs decided by corporations and government impact our lives?
Fittoniya [83]

Explanation:

Trade offs are something in which there are two things and we choose one of them according to our own preference or need. This is and should be our personal decision, but when Corporations and Governments decide on what to choose between two things, there would might be a negative impact on someone's life. He might feel controlled by the corporations and governments. For example, if corporations of CNG decides with the government that it is better for consumers to use CNG than Petrol in their cars, and lowers taxes on CNG and encourage consumers to shift towards CNG, then this trade off will have an impact of being controlled by the big giants. The choice should be of consumer's. The consumer should be the one who will trade off between things who are preferable for him.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

$40,000

Explanation:

The accounting procedure involved in the above is that one picks the lower between the actual interest incurred and the interest computed on the weighted average amount of accumulated expenditures for PPE.

The actual interest incurred on specific construction debt and other borrowings

= $50,000 + $20,000

= $70,000

Since the interest computed on the weighted average amount of accumulated expenditure for the building is $40,000 , the lower between the actual interest incurred and interest on weighted average amount of accumulated expenditure is $40,000, hence will be the capitalized amount.
