Presented below are income statements prepared on a LIFO and FIFO basis for Sunland Company, which started operations on January

1, 2019. The company presently uses the LIFO method of pricing its inventory and has decided to switch to the FIFO method in 2020. The FIFO income statement is computed in accordance with the requirements of GAAP. Sunland’s profit-sharing agreement with its employees indicates that the company will pay employees 10% of income before profit-sharing. Income taxes are ignored.

Instructions:
A) If comparative income statements are prepared, what net income should Kenseth report in 2016 and 2017?
B) Explain why, under the FIFO basis, Kenseth reports $100 in 2016 and $96 in 2017 for its profit sharing expense.
C) Assume that Kenseth has a beginning balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2017, of $8,000 using the LIFO method. The company declared and paid dividends of $500 in 2014. Prepare the retained earnings statement for 2017, assuming that Kenseth has switched to the FIFO method.

Solution :

A.                                              Kenseth Company

                                   Income Statement (for the year ended)

                                                      2017        2016

Sales                                             3000        3000

Cost of goods sold                      1100           940

Operating expenses                    1000          1000

Income before profit sharing      9000         1060

Profit sharing expense                 96              100          

Net Income                                 $ 804          $ 960

The company must report $\$ \ 100$ as profit sharing expense in 2016, even though, profit sharing of expense may be $\$ \ 106$ if FIFO had been used in the year 2016.

B. The profit sharing of expense reflects the indirect effect of the change in an accounting principle. Under the SFAS No. 154, the indirect effects from period before the change are recorded in the year of the change.

In this case, profit sharing expense recorded in the year 2007 is composed of :

$ 900 x 10%     =   $ 90 (year 2017 under the FIFO)

$ 60 x 10%   = $ 6 (difference in the profit sharing for the year 2016)

       Net        = $ 96 (profit sharing expense for the FIFO in year 2017)

C.                              Retaining earnings statement of 2017

   Retained earning, Jan 1 as reported                                 $ 8000

   Cumulative effect of the change to $FIFO$ ($960 - $900)    $ 60

  Retained earnings , Jan 1, as adjusted                               $ 8060

  Add $:$ Net income                                                                   $\$ \ 804$

 Deduct $:$  Dividends                                                                   $ 500

 Retained earnings, Dec 31                                                       $ 8364

If you have a low credit score, lenders are more likely to give you what type of interest rate? A. A low interest rate B. A high
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

B) A high interest rate.

Explanation:

A low credit score means a bad credit score. Meaning you are not that reliable in paying your credit back. If you were reliable, they would make it easy for you and give you a low interest rate. However, your credit score says otherwise so they will give you a high interest rate since you are a higher risk.

shtirl [24]
The effective interest rate is given by

r= \left(1+\frac{i}{t}\right)^t-1

Given that the <span>bond yeilds an annual yield of 6.7 percent and pays coupons twice a year.

The effective interest rate is given by:

r= \left(1+\frac{0.067}{2}\right)^2-1  \\  \\ =(1+0.0335)^2-1 \\  \\ =(1.0335)^2-1=1.0681-1 \\  \\ =0.0681=6.81\%</span>

etermine the degree of operating leverage for each approach at current sales levels. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.
viktelen [127]

Answer: $1,376,000.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which is going to assist us in solving this question effectively;

(1). The current approach and automated approach for Contribution Margin Ratio is 25 % and 50 % respectively.

(2). The current approach and automated approach for Break-even point in Sales Dollar is $ 1,248,000 and $ 1,312,000 respectively.

(3). The current approach and automated approach for Degree of Operating Leverage is 4.18 and 5 respectively.

(4). The current and automated approach for Decline in net income for a 10 % decline in sales is 41.8 % and 50 %.

(5). The current and automated approach for level of Sales where net income will be same under both options is $ 1,376,000 and $ 1,376,000 Respectively.

(6). The current approach and automated approach for Margin of Safety Ratio is 24% and 20% respectively.

Note that;

(1). BP = TFC / CMR

Where BP= Break-even point in sales dollar, TFC = Total Fixed Cost and CMR= Contribution Margin Ratio.

(2). MSR = ( ASD - BSD) / ASD × 100.

Where MSR= Margin of Safety Ratio,ASD=Actual Sales dollars, BSD= Break-even Sales dollars , and ASD = Actual Sales dollars.

(3). CMR = CM ÷ Sales × 100.

CMR = Contribution margin ratio, CM =Contribution Margin.

(4). DOL = CM ÷ NI.

Where DOL = Degree of Operating Leverage, CM = Contribution Margin and NI = Net Income.

Decline in net income for a 10 % decline in sales = OL x 10.

Where OL => Operating Leverage.

We then say that V = level of sales.

=> V x 25 % - 312,000 = V x 50 % - 656,000.

=> 0.25 V = 344,000.

V = $ 1,376,000.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

c. $18, 750

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of interest expense i.e. accrued is shown below:

= Issued amount × yield on the bonds × given months ÷ total number of months in a year

= $562,500 × 10% × 4 months ÷ 12 months

= $18,750

The 4 months is calculated from July 1 to October 31

Hence, the correct option is c. $18,750

Burton Corp. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 28 percent for the next three years, with the growt
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

current share price = $70.53

Explanation:

Share Price:

A share price is the amount it would cost to buy one share in a company.

Formula:

share price = future dividends * Present value of discount factor(16%, time period)

As the company just paid a dividend of $3.45 and dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 28 percent for the next three years so

Dividend for 1st year = (3.45*1.28) = $4.416

Dividend for 2nd year = (4.416*1.28) = $5.65248

Dividend for 3rd year = (5.65248*1.28) = $7.2351744

Now we need to calculate the value for 3rd year.

Formula:

Value after 3rd year = (Dividend for year 3*growth rate) / (required rate-growth rate)

Therefore by putting the values in the above formula, we get

Value after 3rd year = (7.2351744 * 1.074) / (0.16 - 0.074)

Value after 3rd year = $90.35555007

Therefore by putting the values in the share price formula, we get

current share price = 4.416 / 1.16 + 5.65248 / 1.16^2 + 7.2351744/1.16^3 + 90.35555007 / 1.16^3

current share price = $70.53
