Answer:

The alternative that should be chosen assuming identical replacement is:

Alternative B.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Alternatives:

                                                A            B

First Cost                           $5,000     $9,200

Uniform Annual Benefit     $1,750      $1,850

Useful life, in years                4              8

Rate of return                       7%            7%

Annuity factor                   3.387          5.971

Present value of annuity $5,927.25 $11,046.35

Net cash flow                 $927.25     $1,846.35

b) Alternative B yields a higher return than Alternative A.  Since the two alternatives are based on the same rate of return, Alternative B will bring in a higher annual benefit, even when discounted to the present value.

mixer [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Income tax is a tax imposed by the government on the income earned by the individuals. This income can be from capital and labor. It creates a deadweight loss in the market for labor and capital.

Deadweight loss is the loss to economic efficiency and production caused by a tax. The imposition of a tax creates a tax wedge, this tax wedge leads to a deadweight loss. Deadweight loss due to income tax is the loss of purchasing power or reductions standard of living due to tax.  

The inefficiency or tax burden depends upon the elasticities of demand and supply. Whoever has the least elasticity will share most of the tax burden.

A semi-annual coupon Corporate bond was purchased for settlement on November 12, 2017. The last coupon was paid on October 15, 2
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Bond is with semi annual coupon payments, pays every 6 month

a) Last coupon was paid on October 15, 2017. Next coupon will be paid six months(180 days) after October 15.

So the next coupon is paid on October 15, 2017 + 6 month = April 15, 2018  

b) Settlement date is November 12, 2017  

Last coupon payment date is October 15, 2017

The number of days passed between settlement date and last coupon date = Settlement date - last coupon payment date

= November 12, 2017 - October 15, 2017 = 27 days

c) Days in current coupon period = Next coupon payment date - settlement date

Next coupon payment date = April 15, 2018

Days in current coupon period = April 15, 2018 - November 12, 2017 = 153 days

Total cost or production         $466,950    $157,458        $624,408

(See the workings of this report below.)

2. Change in direct materials cost per equivalent unit

                                 Increase or Decrease

                               Materials     Conversion

September             $16.50          $6.005

October                   $16.51           $5.99

Amount                   $0.01           $0.015

                               Increase        Decrease

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

partial work in process account of the Blending Department at October 31, 2014:

Date  Item                                                Debit       Credit       Balance

Oct.1 Bal., 2,300 units, 3/5 completed 46,368

31 Direct materials, 26,000 units       429,000                       475,368

31 Direct labor                                      100,560                       575,928

31 Factory overhead                              48,480                       624,408

31 Goods transferred, 25,700 units                     578,378       46,030                          

31 Bal., 2,600 units, 1/5 completed                                           46,030

Ending units in process:

Beginning units in process        2,300

Direct materials                        26,000

Units available for production 28,300

Units transferred out               25,700

Ending units in process             2,600

Equivalent units of production:               Materials  Conversion

Units started and completed = 25,700   25,700      25,700

Ending WIP                                  2,600     2,600           520 (1/5 * 2,600)

Equivalent units produced                      28,300      26,220

Cost per unit of direct materials = $429,000/26,000 = $16.50

Cost of production:                   Materials     Conversion     Total

Beginning WIP                            $37,950        $8,418          $46,368

Cost per equivalent unit:      Materials     Conversion

Total cost or production         $466,950    $157,458

Equivalent units produced          28,300       26,220

Cost per equivalent unit           $16.50          $6.005

Assignment of cost to units completed and ending WIP:

                                                    Materials     Conversion      Total

Units transferred out (25,700)   $424,050     $154,328    $578,378

Ending WIP (2,600/520)                 42,900            3,130        46,030

Total                                            $466,950     $157,458    $624,408

2. Assuming that the October 1 work in process inventory includes direct materials of $38,295, determine the increase or decrease in the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials and conversion between September and October.

Cost of production:                   Materials     Conversion     Total
