Answer:
c. May be able to avoid liability to the extent she had no reason to know of the deficiency (and did not have actual knowledge) when filing the return. The burden of proof will be on her.
Explanation:
The doctrine of <em>innocent spouse relief</em> might apply here. Mrs. Jones will have to prove that:
- the income that was omitted was earned by her husband, not her.
- she must prove that when she signed the tax filings, she was not aware of the omission.
- after examining all the facts surrounding the omission, the IRS must decide that blaming her would not be fair.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the unused resource capacity in energy and repairs for Tri-State Mill. is shown below;
For energy
= $6,900 - 6,000 × $0.90
= $6,900 - $5,400
= $1,500
For repairs
= $12,000 - 600 × $16
= $12,000 - $9,600
= $2,400
Hence, the unused resource capacity in energy and repairs for Tri-State Mill. is $1,500 and $2,400 respectively
Answer:
Projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.
Optimal Capital is $5,750,000
Explanation:
The accept-or-reject rule, using the IRR method, is to acceptthe project if its Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is higher than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital(k) [r>k]. The project shall berejected if its internal rate of return is e lower than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital cost of (r<k)
Accept if r>k
Reject if r<k
Mayaccept if r = k
If the Weighted Average Cost of Capitl (WACC) is less than IRRrate, then the project has positive NPV; if it is equal to IRR, theproject has a Zero NPV, and if it is greater than the IRR, theproject has negative NPV.
The projects should be accepted as the rate of return on theproject is higher than the WACC(10.8%) which means that theprojects will be profitable as the returns are higher than the costof the project (capital). Considering this projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.
And considering the sizes the Optimal Capital is $5,750,000 (the addition of sizes of all projects)
Answer:
c. Ending inventory will be lower if Blake uses weighted average than if FIFO were used
Explanation:
To check which answer is correct, we simply evaluate each option step by step.
<u>Option A</u>
Gross margin is the difference between selling price and cost.
Under FIFO gross margin is $14. (32 -18 =14)
Under LIFO gross margin is $13. (32-19 = 13)
Thus statement is incorrect as gross margin is higher if FIFO is used.
<u />
<u>Option B</u>
If FIFO is used, the dollar amount of ending inventory will be $19 as ending inventory will contain product purchased later that is at $19. In contrast, if LIFO is used, the dollar amount of ending inventory will be $18. Thus the statement becomes incorrect that it will be the same.
<u />
<u>Option C</u>
The ending inventory under FIFO is $19.
The ending inventory under LIFO is $18
The endng inventory under AVCO or weighted average will be, 18+19 / 2 = 18.5
Thus the statement is correct as the ending inventory under weighted average $18.5 is lower than ending inventory under FIFO $19. So, C is the correct Answer.
Answer:
variable cost per unit 150 dollars
Explanation:
As we aren't provided with a volume. We calculate considering variable costying system which onyl count variable cost as cost of goods manufactured:
raw material $ 75 per unit
labor 5 hours x 14 per hour = $ 70 per unit
variable ovehread $ 5 per unit
Variable cost per unit $ 150 per unit
the fixed overhead cost
5,110 + 3,730 + 1,550 + 6,600 + 8,760 = 25,750
will be considered cost of the period under variable costing
