Assuming a 360-day year, proceeds of $48,750 were received from discounting a $50,000, 90-day note at a bank. The discount rate

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

the discount rate should be 10%

Explanation:

The computation of the discount rate should be given below:

The Amount of discount is is

= $50,000 - $48,750

= $ 1,250

The $1,250 should be for 90 days.

So for 360 days, it should be

= $1,250 × 4

= $5,000.

And, the discount rate is

= $5,000 ÷ 50,000 × 100

= 10%

Hence, the discount rate should be 10%

In the past, Taylor Industries has used a fixed−time period inventory system that involved taking a complete inventory count of

N76 [4]

Answer:

a) Taylor Industries can successfully cut back its labor cost in inventory stockrooms by counting only high-value items. These items are determined by reference to their Annual Usage values. The items' annual usage values should be used as the activity cost pool for accumulating and allocating labor cost in inventory stockrooms. Taylor Industries can establish a benchmark or cutoff point so that only the items meeting this benchmark are counted. For example, the items with annual usage value above $5,000 should be included in the items to be counted. This strategy will reduce the number of items to be counted and therefore the labor cost.

b) Since item 15 is critical to Taylor Industries' continued operations, it should be classified as a direct materials cost and not an overhead cost.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

a random sample of 20 of Taylor's items:

ITEM NUMBER ANNUAL USAGE ITEM NUMBER ANNUAL USAGE

1 $ 1,500 11 $ 13,000

2 12,000 12 600

3 2,200 13 42,000

4 50,000 14 9,900

5 9,600 15 1,200

6 750 16 10,200

7 2,000 17 4,000

8 11,000 18 61,000

9 800 19 3,500

10 15,000 20 2,900

Average annual usage value = $12,657.50

You can purchase an item you need for a project for $10,000 and it has daily operating costs of $500, or you can lease the item

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

On the 50th day, the purchase cost will be equal to the lease cost

Explanation:

Given that:

Daily operating costs of $500
Purchasing cost for the item: $10,000
Lease amount: $700

Let x is the number of days the purchase cost be the same as the lease cost. As we now that:

The total cost should be equal to the total lease received

<=> 10,000 + 500x = 700x

<=> 200x = 10000

<=> x = 50

Hence, on the 50th day, the purchase cost will be equal to the lease cost

A company growing at an annual rate of 35 percent will double in size in just two years. A company growing at an 18 percent rate

Pavel [41]

Answer:

Yes.

I agree with the statement that "Persistent long-term growth is most achievable in moderate rates."

Explanation:

For instance, Company B may not be motivated to continue on its growth trajectory because it has doubled in size in a few years. The reason for this demotivation is that to achieve further growth may not become a motivator and it may not be repeatable, with management relaxing its growth efforts. Companies that achieve persistent long-term growth usually grow at moderate rates.
