Answer: Principles-based standards set uniform goals for the application of accounting standards
Explanation:
Rule based standards are quite rigid and as a result, set specific goals when it comes to the application of accounting standards. This is in contrast to Principles based standards that set more uniform or general goals that should be met.
This is why IFRS is preferred by most nations in the world as opposed to U.S. GAAP. IFRS gives principle based standards which allow leeway unlike U.S. GAAP which is rules based and gives little leeway in application.
Helen Ming receives a travel allowance of $120 each week from her company for time away from home. If this allowance is taxable and she has a 28 percent income tax rate, what amount will she have to pay in taxes for this employee benefit
Answer:
$1,747.2
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what amount will she have to pay in taxes for this employee benefit
First step is to determine the Annual travel allowance
Using this formula
Annual travel allowance=Weekly allowance × 52 weeks
Let plug in the formula
Annual travel allowance=$120 × 52 weeks
Annual travel allowance=$6,240
Now let determine the Annual tax
Using this formula
Annual tax=Annual travel allowance × Tax rate
Let plug in the formula
Annual tax=$6,240 × 0.28
Annual tax=$1,747.2
Therefore the amount that she will have to pay in taxes for this employee benefit is $1,747.2
The 2017 balance sheet of Dream, Inc., showed current assets of $1,530 and current liabilities of $820. The 2018 balance sheet showed current assets of $1,800 and current liabilities of $1,000. What was the company's 2018 change in net working capital, or NWC
Answer:
$90
Explanation:
net working capital = current assets - current liabilities
therefore
2017 = $710
2018 = $800
change = $90
The company's 2018 change in net working capital, or NWC is $90
A company with $60,000 in current assets and $35,000 in current liabilities pays a $1,000 current liability. As a result of this transaction, the current ratio and working capital will
Answer:
Increase and remain the same respectively
Explanation:
Given the above information, we know that current ratio is computed as;
Current ratio = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities
Current ratio = $60,000 ÷ $34,000
Current ratio = 1: 1.76
Working capital is computed as;
= Current asset - Current liabilities
= $60,000 - $34,000
= $26,000
As a result of the above, the current ratio increased because of the reduction in the current liabilities value while the working capital remains the same.
Consider the assembly line of a laptop computer. The line consists of 11 stations and operates at a cycle time of 1.50 minutes/unit. Their most error-prone operation is step 2. There is no inventory between the stations, because this is a machine-paced line. Final inspection happens at station 11.
Required:
What would be the information turnaround time for a defect made at station 2?
Answer: 13.5 minutes
Explanation:
Information turnaround time = Cycle time * Number of stations after error is made.
The most error-prone operation is step 2 so assuming an error happens there, there will be 9 more stations in the line.
Information turnaround time will therefore be:
= 1.50 * 9
= 13.5 minutes

If no page number or paragraph number is available when directly quoting from an electronic source, then the heading or section name along with the number of the paragraph within that section should be included.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
Plagiarism can be defined as the act of representing or using an author's work, ideas, thoughts, language, or expressions without their consent, acknowledgement or authorization.
This ultimately implies that, plagiarism is an illegal act of presenting another author's intellectual work or copyrighted items by using their ideas, thoughts, language or expressions, word for word without authorization or permission from the original author.
The four (4) common types of plagiarism are;
1. Copy and paste: this typically involves copying another author's work word for word and pasting it as yours without proper citation or reference with quotation marks.
2. Improper citation : this involves an author failing to provide an in-text reference or citation of the original author appropriately.
3. Find and replace: this typically involves an author finding some words to change (replace) in the original literary work.
4. Fabrication: this occur when an author makes up unverified or false data to use in his or her literary work.
Attribution can be defined as a process which typically involves the citation (reference) of an original source of information such as a quote, paraphrase or summary, using the author's full name and job title or position as the case may be.
Furthermore, if there is no page number or paragraph number when directly quoting from an electronic source, then one is permitted to use the heading or section name along with the number of the paragraph within that section.
A welding company specializes in custom steel frames and uses job costing to account for its operations. The following information is available as of May 1 for the work-in-process inventory account:
Job# Direct Materials Direct Labor Man. Overhead Total Cost
304 $3,000 $1,800 $2,520 $7,320
306 4,000 2,100 2,940 9,040
Total Cost 7,000 3,900 5,460 16,360
Welding Company pays an hourly rate of $15 for direct labor. Manufacturing overhead costsare applied to jobs based on the direct labor hours used. During the month of May, Jacob Welding spends $5,800 to purchase materials and $4,650 for manufacturing overhead. The operations in May are summarized below.
Job# Material Requisition summary Time Card Summary (Hours)
304 $1,100 40
306 900 30
307 2,800 110
308 750 25
Total 5,550 205
Jobs 304, 306, 307 are completed in May but only Jobs 304 and 307 are delivered to customers.
Required:
Calculate the predetermined overhead rate used.
Answer: $21 per direct labor hour.
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the predetermined overhead rate that is used will be calculated as:
= Manufacturing overhead / Direct labor
where,
Manufacturing overhead = 5460
Direct labor = 3900/15 = 260 hours
Therefore, predetermined overhead rate:
= 5460/260
= $21 per direct labor hour.
You are evaluating a potential investment in equipment. The equipment's basic price is $176,000, and shipping costs will be $3,500. It will cost another $17,600 to modify it for special use by your firm, and an additional $8,800 to install it. The equipment falls in the MACRS 3-year class that allows depreciation of 33% the first year, 45% the second year, 15% the third year, and 7% the fourth year. You expect to sell the equipment for 30,900 at the end of three years. The equipment is expected to generate revenues of $151,000 per year with annual operating costs of $77,000. The firm's marginal tax rate is 35.0%. What is the after-tax operating cash flow for year 1
Answer:
$71,881.45
Explanation:
The after-tax operating cash flow for year 1 is simply the net income plus depreciation for year 1 since depreciation needs to be added back to net income as it is not a cash outflow in the actual sense.
net income=(revenue-annual operating costs-depreciation)*(1-tax rate)
revenue=$151,000
annual operating costs=$77,000
depreciation expense for year 1=($176,000+$3,500+$17,600+$8,800)*33%
depreciation expense for year 1=$67,947.00
tax rate=35.0%
net income=($151,000-$77,000-$67,947)*(1-35%)
net income=$3,934.45
after-tax operating cash flow for year 1=$3,934.45+$67,947.00
after-tax operating cash flow for year 1= $71,881.45

Question 2 of 8
2.0 Points
Income earned by the business from activities unrelated to its primary operations would be
classified as........ in the statement that measures its performance for a particular period.
Answer:
This type of income is known as non-operating income in the financial statements
Explanation:
Non-operating income, as the world implies, is the income that a firm earns from activities that are not related to its main economic activity. An example would be a mall, whose main activity is the rental and management of commercial real estate, earning some income from short-term investments in the secondary market. This interest would be reported as non-operating income, and would be treated as such for financial, accounting, and tax purposes.

The current monthly production volume of a company is 1,120 units. Workers are paid $19 per hour, and each worker can produce 4 units per hour. The fixed costs for a month are $4,200. Determine the selling price of the product that the company should charge in order to breakeven its monthly profit.
Answer:
The selling price of the product that the company should charge in order to breakeven its monthly profit is $8.50 per unit.
Explanation:
Number of hours worked by workers per month = Total monthly units / Units per hour = 1,120 / 4 = 280
Total monthly variable cost = Total monthly wages = Number of hours worked by workers per month * Hourly rate = 280 * $19 = $5,320
Total monthly cost = Total monthly variable cost + Fixed costs for a month = $5,320 + $4,200 = $9,520
Selling price to breakeven = Total monthly cost / Total monthly units = $9,520 / 1,120 = $8.50
Therefore, the selling price of the product that the company should charge in order to breakeven its monthly profit is $8.50 per unit.

When rival firms compete aggressively by trying to attract competitors' customers, this might be an indication of: a. increasing economies of scale. b. slow industry growth. c. an industry with low exit barriers. d. high switching costs.
Answer:
b. slow industry growth.
Explanation:
Competitive advantage can be defined as conditions, factors or circumstances that allow a business firm (organization) to manufacture finished goods or services better and perhaps cheaper than other (rival) firms in the same industry. Thus, it's responsible for putting a business firm in a superior or more favorable position than rival firms.
This ultimately implies that, a competitive advantage has a significant impact on a business because it increases its level of sales, revenue generation and profit margin when compared to rival firms in the same industry.
Generally, when rival business firms compete aggressively by trying to attract competitors' customers, this might be an indication of slow industry growth.
In conclusion, the various companies or business firms are experiencing a low level of sales of their goods and services. As a result, they engage in activities that would attract potential customers and by extension their competitors' customers.

Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Quick ratio = 2.00x
Cash = $32,850
Accounts receivable = $18,250
Current assets = $73,000
Inventory = $21,900 ($73,000 - $32,850 + $18,250)
Current liabilities = $25,550
Cost of goods sold = $100,000
How often Polk Software Inc. sold and replaced its inventory = (Cost of goods sold/Average Inventory)
= 4.57 x ($100,000/$21,900)
Industry turnover ratio = 3.89x
Like Games Inc. and Our Play Inc. Like Games:
Sales for each firm last year = $100,000
Average sales for all industry competitors = $255,000

Net fixed assets 55,000 80,000 216,750
Total assets 95,000 125,000 234,600
Days sales in inventory = Average accounts receivable/Sales * 365
For Our Play = $3,900/$100,000 * 365
= 14.235 days
Like Games = $2,700/$100,000 * 365
= 9.855 days
For the Industry = $3,850/$255,000 * 365
= 5.51 days
Fixed assets turnover:
Like Games Our Play Industry Average
Sales $100,000 $100,000 $255,000

An investment offers $5,700 per year, with the first payment occurring one year from now. The required return is 5 percent. a. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 10 years
Answer:
The correct answer is "$44,013.89".
Explanation:
Given:
Investment per year,
= $5,700
Required return,
= 5%
As we know,
⇒ [tex]Present \ value=Investment \ per \ year\times Annuity \ factor[/tex]
Or,
⇒ [tex]Annuity \ factor=\frac{1-[\frac{1}{(1+k)}]^n }{k}[/tex]
then,
The present value of 10 annual payment will be:
