Answer:
Stone Foods produces the majority of its cheese products in its U.S. based dairy division at a total outlay cost of $6.00 per unit. A large portion of the finished product is sold to Division B where it is packaged and sold overseas under a different label. The tax rate in Division B's country is higher than the U.S. tax rate. Assume the company desires to minimize the overall tax impact of the transfer (i) what type of relative pre-tax income should each division desire to achieve as a result of the transfer and (ii) what type of transfer price would accomplish your answer to (i).
Dairy Division Income Division B Income Transfer Price
.
Option "D" is the correct answer - High Low High.
Explanation:
Since in Division B, the tax rate is higher than the tax rate in US-based dairy division. Therefore to minimize the impact of the overall tax, transfer price from dairy division should be high to Division B so that the dairy division income would be higher. and the income of Division B would be lower.
Hence option "D" is the correct answer.

Explanation:
Contingent liabilities must be recorded only when it is probable that the liability will happen and you can estimate the associated costs.
When contingent liabilities are only reasonably possible or you cannot estimate the amount, they must be included in the footnotes of the financial statements.
When contingent liabilities are not reasonably possible, nothing needs to be disclosed.
Answer:
17%
Explanation:
If a company issued a short-term note payable to a bank with a stated 12 percent rate of interest and in addition the bank charged a .5% loan origination fee and remitted the balance to the company. The effective interest rate paid by the company in this transaction would be 17%
The effective annual interest rate is <u>the interest rate that is actually earned or paid on an investment, loan</u> or other financial product.
Hence, since the company is both paying the initial 5% and the later 12%, effectively the company is paying 17% on the note payable.

Answer:
$23,000
Explanation:
current annual sales = 49,000 packs
Selling price of course packs = $14 each
variable cost per pack = $12
Earnings = $75,000
Contribution:
= current annual sales × (Selling price of course packs - variable cost per pack)
= 49,000 packs × ($14 - $12)
= 49,000 packs × $2
= $98,000
Fixed costs of producing the course packs:
= Contribution - Earnings
= $98,000 - $75,000
= $23,000
