Jasper Company provided the following information for last year:
sdas [7]

Answer:                        

Explanation:

1.                                     Jasper Company

                                      Income Statement

                                                                                         

            Sales (280000 x $12)                                  $3360000

            <u>Less: Cost of goods sold</u>

            Add: Direct Material                   $180000

            Add: Direct Labor                       $505000

            Add: Manufacturing Overhead  <u>$110000</u>

            Cost of goods sold                                      <u>($795000)</u>

            Gross Profit                                                  $ 2565000

           <u>Less: Expenses</u>

           Selling expense                           $437000

           Administrative expense              <u>$854000</u>

          Total expenses                                               <u>($1291000)</u>

          Net income                                                     <u> $1274000</u>

Percentage of sales for each line item

Sales = 100%

Cost of goods sold: \frac{795000}{3360000} x 100= 23.7%

Selling expense : \frac{437000}{3360000} x 100 = 13%

Administrative expense: \frac{854000}{3360000} x 100 = 25.4 %

2. According to the income statement in requirement 1, the manager can control cost by outsourcing the product if it is cheaper to get it from a third party in order to cut/control cost of goods sold.

Manager can also try controlling the administrative expenses as they are taking a bigger proportion than any other cost/ expense.

A friend of Mr. Richards recently won a law suit for $30 million. They have the ability to either take the payments over 10 year
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A friend of Mr. Richards recently won a law suit for $30 million. They can either take the payments over 10 years or settle today for cash of $25 million. Mr. Richard is optimistic that he can earn a 6% return on the money and that they should settle for $25 million today and he will invest it for them.

First, we need to find the present value of the 30 million.

To do that we need to calculate the final value.

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {3,000,000*[(1.06^10)-1]}/0.06= 39,542,385

PV= FV/(1+i)^n= 39,542,385/1.06^10= 22,080,261

B) Now we know that the present value of option B is higher. One dollar today is better than one dollar tomorrow. It is better to receive the money now to invest it.

  •     Cr Customer refunds payable 10,500

The adjusting entry should = total sales x estimated percent of returns = $1,750,000 x 0.6% = $10,500

b. Journalize the adjusting entry for the estimated customer returns.

  • Dr Estimated returns inventory 8,000
  •     Cr Cost of merchandise sold 8,000

This amount is given in the question, $8,000, so you need to record it as a decrease in COGS and an increase in returns inventory.

Refer to exhibit 20-2. the market for good x is initially in equilibrium at $5. the government then places a per-unit tax on goo
Tema [17]

Answer:

45%

Explanation:

The market for good x is initially in equilibrium at $5. the government then places a per-unit tax on good x, as shown by the shift of s1 to s2.

As a result of the shift in the supply curve a new equilibrium price is established at $6.25

That implies that the share of the burden that consumers will bear is $1.25 (which represents 55% portion of the tax) - the difference between the previous and new equilibrium prices.

The other 45% portion of the tax will be borne by the producers
