Answer:
The first journal entry was not the most appropriate, but since the mistake was correctly adjusted at the end of the year, both assets and expenses will be the same whether they did it correctly the first time or they had to adjust a mistake at the end of the year.
E.g. something like this happened
October 1, rent expense for 1 year
Dr Rent expense 12,000
Cr Cash 12,000
December 31, adjustment to rent expense
Dr Prepaid rent 10,000
Cr Rent expense 10,000
they should have recorded it as:
October 1, prepaid rent for 1 year
Dr Prepaid rent 12,000
Cr Cash 12,000
December 31, adjustment to rent expense
Dr Rent expense 2,000
Cr Prepaid rent 2,000
Whichever way you recorded the transactions, the balances a the end of the year would be:
prepaid rent (asset) $10,000
rent expense (expense) $2,000
Answer:
C) $4,000
Explanation:
To calculate economic profit we can use the following formula:
economic profit = total revenue - (accounting costs + implicit costs) = (total revenue - accounting cost) - implicit costs
where:
- accounting profit = total revenue - accounting cost = $50,000
- implicit costs: ($20,000 x 5%) + $45,000 = $1,000 + $45,000 = $46,000
economic profit = $50,000 - $46,000 = $4,000
Answer:
- <u>std rate $30.64</u>
- <u>efficiency variance $6,128.00</u>
Explanation:
We will work the rate variance to obtain the standard rate:
actual rate $29.20
actual hours 11,700
difference $1.44
rate variance $16,800.00
<u>std rate $30.64</u>
<u></u>
<u>Now we can solve for the labor efficiency variance:</u>
std hours 11700
actual hours 11500
std rate $30.64
difference 200
<u>efficiency variance $6,128.00</u>
The diference is positive, sothe variance is favorable.
Answer:
B) a monopolist's demand curve is the same as the market demand curve
Explanation:
The demand curve is downward sloping for both monopolies and competitive markets. Rational consumers will always buy larger quantities of products or services when their prices are lower, and inversely will buy less when the price if higher. This applies to all types of markets except monopsonies (a lot of suppliers and only one consumer).
Answer: A.) $1,095
Explanation:
Bond value = $30,000
Rate = 7%
Period = 10 years
Issue price = $29,100
Bond value × rate :
30,000 × 0.07 = $2100
Semi annually:
$2100 / 2 = $1050
(Bond value - issue price) ÷ (period × 2)
($30,000 - $29,100) / (10 × 2)
$900 ÷ 20 = $45
$1050 + $45 = $1,095
