Answer:

Johnson Stores

Staffing Budget for Holidays:

a. The amount to budget for additional sales clerks for the holiday season is:

= $24,192.

b. The additional profit generated if a staff is added for the increased sale is:

= $1,209.60.

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Number of sales clerk required for each $12,000 in daily sales = 1

Average sales increase = $96,000

Number of sales clerk required for the $96,000 sales increase = 8 ($96,000/$12,000)

Number of shopping days from Black Friday to Christmas Eve = 27

Sales clerk works a shift per day = 8 hours

Wages per hour = $14

Total hours to be worked by the additional sales clerk = 8 * 27 * 8 = 1,728

Total wages = 1,728 * $14 = $24,192

Average gross profit on sales = 40%

Total gross profit on sales = $24,192 * 40% = $9,676.80

Additional gross profit generated by adding a staff = $1,209.60 ($9,676.80/8)

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Depreciable value of machine:

= Cost of machine - salvage value

= $87,000 - $7,000

= $80,000

Depreciation of second year:

= ($80,000 ÷ 400,000) × 84500

= $16,900

Therefore, the journal entry is as follows:

Depreciation Expenses A/c Dr. $16,900

      To accumulated depreciation           $16,900

(To record the machines' second year depreciation)

lukranit [14]

Answer:

Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc.

a) Current Portion of Note Payable:

= $4,000

b) Long-term Portion of Note Payable:

= $6,000

Explanation:

Data and Calculations:

Date of Note Payable = November 1, 2017

Period = 3 years

Interest rate = 5%

Terms of payment:

Fixed principal payments = $2,000

Payment dates = May 1 and November 1

Each year's principal repayment = $4,000 ($2,000 x 2)

From November 1, 2017 to October 31, 2018 = $4,000

At October 31, 2018, Payment made = $2,000 on May 1

Remaining Note payable = $10,000 ($12,000 - $2,000)

Current Portion = $4,000 ($2,000 x 2)

Long-term Portion = $6,000

b) The current portion of $4,000 will be payable on November 1, 2018 and May 1, 2019.  The current portion represents the short-term portion of the note payable, which is the portion that will be settled within a 12-months' period.  Since Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc. had already paid $2,000 on May 1, 2018, the long-term portion will only remain $6,000 ($12,000 - $2,000 - $4,000), which is the difference between the total note payable, the portion paid on May 1, 2018, and the current portion of $4,000 that will be payable within one year.

vichka [17]
The answer to this question is the "output contract". This is a mutual agreement between the producer of the product and the buyer. The producer agrees that he will sell all his product to the buyer and the buyer agrees that he will buy all the product delivered to him by the producer. Thus, to complete the sentence we have it "<span>Bay crab processor has a contract with Jim who is a local crabber and inform Jim that he will buy all the crabs. Then, Jim catches during the season for 35 per bushel. this is an example of an OUTPUT contract.</span>"
