Explanation:
The given options in the question are clearly stated as follows:
Redemption of certificates Lapse of certificates
a. Decrease Decrease
b. Decrease No effect
c. No effect Decrease
d. No effect No effect
The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:
When a gift certificate is redeemed, it implies that merchandise has been given to the holder of the gift certificate in return. This will therefore decrease the deferred revenue account.
However, the moment a gift certificate is lapse; it is no longer possible redeem it for merchandise. That is, no merchandise has been given to the holder of the gift certificate in return. This therefore indicates that that the deferred revenue account will not change.
Therefore, the correct option is b. That is, the deferred revenue account will be affected as follows:
Redemption of certificates Lapse of certificates
b. Decrease No effect
Sandhill Diesel owns the Fredonia Barber Shop. He employs 7 barbers and pays each a base rate of $1,650 per month. One of the barbers serves as the manager and receives an extra $500 per month. In addition to the base rate, each barber also receives a commission of $5.50 per haircut. Other costs are as follows.
Advertising $260 per month
Rent $800 per month
Barber supplies $0.30 per haircut
Utilities $185 per month plus $0.20 per haircut
Magazines $20 per month
Determine the variable costs per haircut and the total monthly fixed costs. (Round variable costs to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.25.)
Total variable cost per haircut $
Total fixed $
Answer:
the variable costs per haircut and the total monthly fixed costs is $6 per haircut and $13,315 respectively
Explanation:
The computation is given below:
The variable cost per haircut should be
= $5.50 + $0.20 + $0.30
= $6 per haircut
And, the fixed cost should be
= 7 × $1,650 + $500 + $260 + $800 + $185 + $20
= $13,315
So, the variable costs per haircut and the total monthly fixed costs is $6 per haircut and $13,315 respectively

During its first month of operations, Purrfect Pets purchased 5,100 bags of dog food at a cost of $7 a bag and sold all 5,100 bags of dog food on account with payment terms of 1/10, n/30 for $11 each. A total of 2,100 of these bags were sold to customers who paid within the discount period; the other customers paid after the discount period had ended. Sales allowances totaling $220 were granted to customers whose dogs did not like the dog food. Required: Calculate the gross profit for the month. Calculate the gross profit percentage for the month.
Answer:
Purrfect Pets
The gross profit for the month is:
= $20,180.
The gross profit percentage for the month is:
= 36.11%.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Quantity of dog food purchased = 5,100 bags
Cost per bag = $7
Quantity of dog food sold = 5,100 bags
Sales price per bag = $11
Sales revenue $56,100 ($5,100 * $11)
Less Sales allowances 220
Net Sales $55,880
Cost of goods (dog food) sold 35,700 (5,100 *$7)
Gross profit $20,180
Discounts (2,100 * $11 * 1%) 231
Net operating income $19,949
Gross profit percentage = Gross profit/Net Sales * 100
= $20,180/$55,880 * 100
= 36.11%
Joss is a marketing consultant. Iris and Daphne are potential customers interested in commissioning Joss to undertake a market survey and compile the findings in a report. Iris is willing to pay $500 for the service while Daphne is willing to pay $800. Suppose that the opportunity cost of Joss's time is $1,200. Assume that Iris and Daphne do not know each other. Which of the following statements is true?
a. only Iris will purchase Joss's services and Joss will undertake the job for her.
b. only Daphne will purchase Joss's services and Joss will undertake the job for her.
c. both Iris and Daphne will purchase Joss's services and Joss will undertake the job.
d. both Iris and Daphne will want to purchase Joss's services but Joss will not be willing to undertake the job.
Answer: d. both Iris and Daphne will want to purchase Joss's services but Joss will not be willing to undertake the job.
Explanation:
Iris will want Joss's services but they will be unable to afford them as Iris is only willing to pay $500 whereas Joss wants $1,200 for the job.
The same goes for Daphne who is only willing to pay $800.
Both of them will therefore want to hire Joss but will be unable to.
Joss could however charge both of them their willingness to pay and then sum the cash up and give them both the research whilst still making a profit.

Total direct operating margin less indirect expenses equals
Answer:
Total operating income.
Explanation:
Costing is the measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.
In Financial accounting, a direct cost can be defined as any expense which can easily be connected to a specific cost object such as a department, project or product. Some examples of direct costs are cost of raw materials, machineries or equipments.
On the other hand, any cost associated with the running, operations and maintenance of a company refers to indirect costs. Some examples of indirect costs are utility bill, office accessories, diesel etc.
In Financial accounting, the total operating income can be defined as the sum total of the profit of a business firm (company) after its regular, recurring costs and expenses have been deducted. Thus, it's the amount of revenue generated by a business firm (company) after subtracting all operating expenses and cost of goods sold (COGS).
Mathematically, the total operating income of a business is calculated by subtracting the indirect expenses incurred by the business firm from its total direct operating margin.
This ultimately implies that, total direct operating margin less indirect expenses equals total operating income.
Calculating the Direct Materials Price Variance and the Direct Materials Usage Variance Guillermo's Oil and Lube Company is a service company that offers oil changes and lubrication for automobiles and light trucks. On average, Guillermo has found that a typical oil change takes 24 minutes and 6.2 quarts of oil are used. In June, Guillermo's Oil and Lube had 980 oil changes. Guillermo's Oil and Lube Company provided the following information for the production of oil changes during the month of June:
Actual number of oil changes performed: 980
Actual number of quarts of oil used: 6,020 quarts
Actual price paid per quart of oil: $5.10
Standard price per quart of oil: $5.05
Required:
a. Calculate the direct materials price variance (MPV) and the direct materials usage variance (MUV) for June using the formula approach.
b. Calculate the total direct materials variance for oil for June.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (5.05 - 5.1)*6,020
Direct material price variance= $301 unfavorable
To calculate the direct material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (6,076 - 6,020)*5.05
Direct material quantity variance= $282.8 favorable
Standard quantity= 980*6.2= 6,076
Finally, the total direct material variance:
Total direct material variance= Direct material quantity variance - Direct material price variance
Total direct material variance= 282.8 - 301
Total direct material variance= $18.2 unfavorable
Rhiannon Corporation has bonds on the market with 17.5 years to maturity, a YTM of 6.4 percent, a par value of $1,000, and a current price of $1,037. The bonds make semiannual payments. What must the coupon rate be on these bonds
Answer:
6.75%
Explanation:
The calculation of the coupon rate is given below:
Given that
PV = $1,037
FV = $1,000
YTM = 6.4% ÷ 2 = 3.2%
NPER = 17.5 × 2 = 35
The formula should be
=PMT(RATE,NPER,-PV,FV,TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the pmt should be $33.77
Annual pmt is
= $33.77 × 2
= $67.55
Now the coupon rate is
= 67.55 ÷$1,000
= 6.75%

If a company provides an online service that delivers physical products and services but does not exist as a brick-and-mortar store, it is considered which type of brand
Answer: a. an e-brand brand
Explanation:
An e-brand is one that provides just an online service for merchandise sales. These companies do not have physical locations but rather show you all that they sell on their websites and then when you purchase something, they deliver it as a physical good. The most popular example of such is Amazon.
The advantage of such brands is that they get to save on the rental and other property costs related to establishing brick-and-mortar stores because they are online.
Using the retail inventory method, if the cost to retail ratio is 70% and ending inventory at retail is $145,000, then estimated ending inventory at cost is $207,143.
a. True

The company has net sales revenue of $3.6 million during 2018. The company's records also included the following information: Assets 12/31/17 12/31/18 Property, plant and equipment $ 2.3 million $ 2.5 million Licensing agreements $ 0.5 million $ 0.4 million Goodwill $ 0.3 million $ 0.3 million Investments $ 0.4 million $ 0.5 million What is the company's fixed asset turnover ratio for 2018
Answer:
1.5
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the company's fixed asset turnover ratio for 2018
Average Net Fixed Assets=3,600,000/ [(2,300,000 + 2,500,000)/2]
Average Net Fixed Assets=3,600,000/(4,800,000/2)
Average Net Fixed Assets=3,600,000/2,400,000
Average Net Fixed Assets = 1.5
Therefore the company's fixed asset turnover ratio for 2018 is 1.5
Andy contracts with Susan to feed his dog while he is Europe during the month of July. Andy calls and revokes on July 1st after Susan has gone out and purchased the necessary products to perform but has not yet feed the dog once. A court will likely:
Answer: D. Enforce the contract.
Explanation:
This falls under the doctrine of Promissory estoppel. This posits that when a party to a contract has invested their money into procuring the necessary tools to fulfil their part of the contract, the other party may not cancel the contract unless they pay the former party what they would have made from the contract.
This is because the party that used their money to procure tools (Susan in this case) would not have done so if the other party (Andy) had not made a promise to them in the contract that they would fulfil their part of the bargain.
The Courts would therefore enforce the contract.

Unlike a stock dividend, a stock split _____. multiple choice is always recorded at market value does not change total stockholders' equity reduces the par value of the stock increases the total number of shares outstanding
Answer:
reduces the par value of the stock.
Explanation:
A stock is also referred to as equity and it can be defined as a security that represents a stockholder's ownership of a fraction of a corporation.
The par value of a stock is its face value and it comprises of its total dollar amount as well as its maturity value. Also, the par value of a stock gives the basis on which periodic interest is paid.
A stock is issued at par value when the market rate of interest is the same as the contract rate of interest. This simply means that, a stock would be issued at par (face) value when the stock's stated rated is significantly equal to the effective or market interest rate on the specific date it was issued.
Stockholders' equity can be defined as the amount of assets remaining or the residual interest of assets in a business after all liabilities are settled or deducted. A stockholders' equity is calculated by deducting or subtracting the value of liabilities from the value of assets on the balance sheet of a company.
Additionally, statement of changes in stockholders' equity is a financial statement that illustrate a summary of the changes in shareholders' equity (gains and losses that increase or decrease stockholders' equity respectively) over the reporting period.
In Trading and securities, a stock split reduces the par value of the stock whereas a stock dividend increases the par value of a stock.
XYZ expects to sell 28,000 pools in 2019. It budgets the beginning inventory of Direct Materials, Work-in-process, and Finished goods to be 26,000; 0; 1,300 units; AND ending inventory to be 26,000; 0; 2,800 units. How many pools need to be produced
Answer:
the no of pools need to be produced is 29,500 units
Explanation:
The computation of the no of pools need to be produced is given below:
= Ending finished goods inventory units + number of units sold - beginning finished goods inventory units
= 2800 + 28000 - 1300
= 29500 units.
Hence, the no of pools need to be produced is 29,500 units
The following monthly data are available for Waterway Industries. which produces only one product: Selling price per unit, $54; Unit variable expenses, $14; Total fixed expenses, $42000; Actual sales for the month of June, 2000 units. How much is the margin of safety for the company for June
Answer:
Margin of safety= 950 units
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the break-even point in units:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 42,000 / (54 - 14)
Break-even point in units= 1,050
Now, the margin of safety in units:
Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)
Margin of safety= 2,000 - 1,050
Margin of safety= 950 units

The Fisher Effect equation can be used to determine the real interest rate. Use this equation to determine the answer to the question. If the nominal interest rate is 0.1100.110 , and the inflation rate is 0.0250.025 , what is the real interest rate
Answer:
0.075%
Explanation:
Interest rate is the rate earned on deposits or the rate charged on loans.
Interest rate could be real or nominal
Nominal interest rate is real interest rate plus inflation rate
Real interest rate is interest rate that has been adjusted for inflation
Fisher effect equation : ( 1 + nominal interest rate) = (1 + real interest rate) x (1 + inflation rate)
(1 + 0.001) = (1 + real interest rate) x (1 + 0.00025)
1.001 = (1 + real interest rate) x (1.00025)
1.001 / (1.00025) = (1 + real interest rate)
1.00075 = (1 + real interest rate)
real interest rate = 1.00075 - 1
= 0.00075 = 0.075%
Hudson Manufacturing is an MNE based in the United States with operations in Asia. The firm is considering expansion into the European Union. Executives at the firm are debating whether central Europe or Eastern Europe would be best for the firm. Which of the following best supports a decision to establish operations in Eastern Europe?
a. Hudson wants to implement high performance work system.
b. Hudson plans to staff the foreign facility with local managers.
c. Hudson wants to minimise costs by keeping wages low.
e. Hudson recently lost money in a joint venture Explain each point to the executives as you decide on which point to support
In the question only "option a" is correct which can be defined as follows:
East Europe has also been able to build an industrial engine thanks to its entrepreneurial spirit. Several large companies have chosen the area as a location to produce their products.The decision benefits everyone, not just commercially, even though their motives may differ because of its highly-skilled, but cost-competitive labor force, many countries offer products of exceptional quality.East European workshops adhere to high moral standards of behavior. East European nations offer tremendous potential for organizations with strong ethical standards, particularly in light of Asian labor issues. This brand can offer 'Made in Europe' goods at a competitive rate because of the lower production costs which are retained.Firms can easily access all the gear & supplies they need for the area while lowering its transport costs & spending time on the road. The manufacturers can therefore probably deal with the finest and most established countries in terms of the quality of the products.Several East European workshops are eager to provide high standards and are not afraid to go the extra mile. In addition to other benefits, production in East Europe is financially stable.As just a result, not only is the labor force in Asia cheaper than in the West and more qualified than in Asia, but corporations can also save a lot on commuting costs. Reduced shipping times from factories result in lower costs, and also increased versatility.It's not just a matter of dealing with companies that are already in existence. To attract potential investors to foster the creation of new enterprises, Eastern Countries offer a variety of advantages.The wrong choices can be defined as follows:
In "option b", it is wrong because, To expand within the European Union, Hudson doesn't quite intend to hire local executives for the international plant.In "option c", To minimize costs, Hudson must maintain high pay; thus it is wrong.In "option e", It's the first joint venture wherein Hudson has not lost money. That is why it is bad, and you must explain each position to both the executives as you pick which one to support.Learn more:

A consumer's weekly income is $250, and the consumer buys 12 bars of chocolate per week. When weekly income increases to $280, the consumer buys 13 bars per week. The income elasticity of demand for chocolate by this consumer is about
Answer:
0.69
Explanation:
Given that we have the formula for calculating income elasticity of demand as the percent change in quantity demanded divided by the percent change in income, hence, we have the percent change in quantity demanded => 13 - 12 = 1 ÷ 12 = 0.083
the percent change in income => 280 - 250 = 30 ÷ 250 = 0.12
Therefore we have => 0.083 ÷ 0.12 = 0.69
Hence, the final answer is 0.69
