A subsidiary ledger contains a listing of individual accounts with a common characteristic, providing a detailed breakdown which contributes to the total balance of a specific general ledger account.
The correct answer to the question "A subsidiary ledger" is - Is a listing of individual accounts and amounts with a common characteristic. A subsidiary ledger is a group of similar accounts whose combined balances equal the balance in a specific general ledger account. The general ledger, or GL, is the main accounting record of a company which uses double-entry bookkeeping. Subsidiary ledgers serve as a detailed breakdown of the GL accounts, allowing for easier and more focused review for accountants and auditors. For example, an accounts receivable subsidiary ledger (customer ledger) would include information about individual sales to customers and payments received, with its total equating to the accounts receivable line on the balance sheet.
General ledgers typically include debits and credits for all transactions, which can also be recorded in subsidiary ledgers if needed. Subsidiary ledgers provide detailed information that feeds into the general ledger and eventually into the financial statements such as the balance sheet, the income statement, and the cash flow statement.
If a corporation issued 25,000 shares of $1.00 par common stock for $2.85 per share. The appropriate journal entry for the IPO is:
a) Date Account
1-Jan Cash $25,000
Common Stock $25,000
b) Date Account
1-Jan Cash $71,250
Common Stock $71,250
c) Date Account
1-Jan Cash $25,000
Additional Paid in Capital $46,250
Common Stock $71,250
d) Date Account
1-Jan Cash $71,250
Additional Paid in Capital $46,250
Common Stock $25,000
Answer:
The correct answer is Option D.
Explanation:
Common stock is a share issued by a company to the public. The public enjoy dividend on their common stock when the company pays dividends.
Based on the question, the par value of the common stock is 25,000 shares x $1.00 = $25,000 while the total cash collected by the company would be 25,000 shares x $2.85 = $71,250 and the appropriate entries will be:
Debit Cash $71,250
Credit Additional Paid in Capital $46,250
Credit Common Stock $25,000
(Issuance of common stock)
The correct option is c) Date Account 1-Jan Cash $71,250 Common Stock $25,000 Additional Paid in Capital $46,250
To understand why option c) is correct, let's break down the transaction and the corresponding journal entry for the initial public offering (IPO) of the corporation's common stock.
The corporation issued 25,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $1.00 per share. The shares were sold at $2.85 per share. The total amount received from the issuance of the stock is calculated as:
Total amount received = Number of shares issued × Price per share
Total amount received = 25,000 shares × $2.85 per share
Total amount received = $71,250
This total amount received ($71,250) is the debit to the Cash account.
The credit side of the entry requires two accounts because the issue price per share ($2.85) is greater than the par value ($1.00). The accounts affected are Common Stock and Additional Paid in Capital.
The Common Stock account is credited for the par value of the shares issued:
Common Stock credit = Number of shares issued × Par value per share
Common Stock credit = 25,000 shares × $1.00 per share
Common Stock credit = $25,000
The excess amount received over the par value is credited to Additional Paid in Capital:
Additional Paid in Capital credit = Total amount received - Common Stock credit
Additional Paid in Capital credit = $71,250 - $25,000
Additional Paid in Capital credit = $46,250
Therefore, the correct journal entry to record the IPO transaction is:
Date Account 1-Jan Cash $71,250 Common Stock $25,000 Additional Paid in Capital $46,250
This entry reflects the receipt of cash, the issuance of common stock at par, and the recognition of the additional paid-in capital representing the excess of the issue price over the par value of the stock. Options a), b), and d) are incorrect because they either misstate the amounts credited to Cash, Common Stock, or Additional Paid in Capital, or they omit the Additional Paid in Capital account entirely.

Susan Inc. has been disappointed with the Willow Division's performance over the last few years and has decided that it would be best to sell the division. As of December 31, 2019 the Willow divison is considered to be held for sale. The division's loss from operations for 2019 was $1,800,000. The division's book value and fair value less cost to sell on December 31 were $3,080,000 and $2,320,000, respectively. What should the company report as loss on discontinued operations (before tax) on its 2019 income statement
Answer:
$2,560,000
Explanation:
impairment loss = division's book value - division's fair market value = $3,080,000 - $2,320,000 = $760,000
Assets held for sale are no longer depreciated, but they must be recorded at lower value between carrying cost and fair market value. Since the fair market value is lower than carrying value, then an impairment loss results.
loss on discontinued operations = loss from operations 2019 + impairment loss = $1,800,000 + $760,000 = $2,560,000
Suppose you purchase a 8-year AAA-rated Swiss bond for par that is paying an annual coupon of 8 percent and has a face value of 2,200 Swiss francs (SF). The spot rate is U.S. $0.66667 for SF1. At the end of the year, the bond is downgraded to AA and the yield increases to 10 percent. In addition, the SF depreciates to U.S. $0.74074 for SF1. a. What is the loss or gain to a Swiss investor who holds this bond for a year
Answer:
97.37 SF
Explanation:
Swiss bond purchase price = 1,000 SF
Swiss bond current value = PV at maturity + PV of coupon payments = (1000 / (1 + 0.10)^7) + (80 * (1 - (1 + 0.1)^-7) / 10% = 513.16 + 389.47 = 902.63 SF
Loss to investor who holds Swiss bond for a year = 1,000 - 902.53 = 97.37 SF
To determine the loss or gain for a Swiss investor when holding a bond that downgrades and undergoes currency depreciation, both interest payments and capital gains or losses must be considered. The investor will likely experience a loss due to the downgrade causing an increase in yield (and decrease in bond market value) and the currency depreciation. Calculating the exact loss requires additional information about the bond's market value after the downgrade.
Explanation:To determine the loss or gain to a Swiss investor who holds an 8-year AAA-rated Swiss bond over one year when there's a downgrade and currency depreciation involved, we need to calculate the total return on the bond by considering both the interest payments and the capital gain or loss. In this scenario, the bond has a face value of 2,200 Swiss francs (SF) and pays an annual coupon of 8 percent.
Initially, the bond is purchased for par and is later downgraded which causes the yield to increase to 10 percent. This results in the market value of the bond falling below its initial purchase price, as newer bonds with higher interest rates are more attractive to investors. Additionally, the depreciation of the SF versus the U.S. dollar, from $0.66667 to $0.74074 per SF1, affects the value of the coupon payments and redemption value when converted back to U.S. dollars.
Let's consider the investor's scenario:
At the start of the year, the investor receives a coupon payment which, when converted at the initial spot rate, amounts to SF(2,200 * 0.08) * $0.66667.At the end of the year, due to the bond's downgrade, its price falls to reflect the new yield of 10 percent, decreasing the market value of the bond.The investor incurs a capital loss on the bond due to the increased yield, and a currency exchange loss due to the depreciation of SF against USD.To calculate the exact figures, an investor would take into account the current market price of the bond (reflecting a 10% yield), the coupon payment received, the depreciation of the SF, and then summing these amounts to find the total return. However, without the exact market price of the bond post-downgrade, an accurate calculation is not possible in this case.
Overall, it is evident that the investor has likely experienced a loss, but the specific amount cannot be determined without additional information.

Wolfpack Company uses job-order costing. At the end of the month, the following data was gathered: Job # Total Cost Complete? Sold? 803 $611 yes yes 804 423 yes no 805 805 no no 806 682 yes yes 807 525 yes no 808 250 no no 809 440 yes yes 810 773 yes no 811 267 no no 812 341 no no Wolfpack’s selling price is cost plus 50% for each of its jobs. What is the selling price of Job 806?
Answer:
$1,023
Explanation:
The computation of the selling price of Job 806 is given below:-
Total cost of JOB 806 = $682
Selling price of the cost = 100 + 50
= 150%
Selling price = Total cost of JOB 806 × Selling price of the cost Percentage
= $682 × 150%
= $1,023
Therefore for computing the selling price we simply multiply the total cost of JOB 806 with selling price of the cost percentage.
Variable costs of production $50 per unit Variable costs of sales and administration $25 per unit Fixed costs of production $100,000 per year Fixed costs of sales and administration $50,000 per year Assuming that the product is sold for $100 per unit, how many units must be produced and sold if the operating income is to be $25,000?
Answer:
Number of units to be produced and sold= 7,000 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Variable costs of production $50 per unit
Variable costs of sales and administration $25 per unit
Fixed costs of production $100,000 per year
Fixed costs of sales and administration $50,000 per year
Selling price= $100 per unit
Desired profit= $25,000
To calculate the number of units to be produced and sold, we need to use the break-even point formula:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin per unit
Fixed costs= (100,000 + 50,000)= 150,000
Unitary variable cost= (50 + 25)= $75
Break-even point in units= (150,000 + 25,000) / (100 - 75)
Break-even point in units= 7,000 units
Answer:
7,000 units
Explanation:
Henry Industries sells two products, Basic models and Deluxe models. Basic models sell for $42 per unit with variable costs of $30 per unit. Deluxe models sell for $50 per unit with variable costs of $40 per unit. Total fixed costs for the company are $75,400. Henry Industries typically sells four Basic models for every Deluxe model. What is the breakeven point in total units
Answer:
Break-even point= 6,500 units
Explanation:
The break-even point (BEP) is the quantity of each product to be sold such that the business makes no profit or loss.
The beak-even point can be determined as follows:
Break-even point = total fixed cost / average contribution per unit
Contribution per unit = selling price - variable cost
Contribution per unit:
Basic model = 42-30 = 12
Deluxe model = 50-40 = 10
Average contribution = ( 12×4) + (10×1)/(4+1)= 11.6
Break-even point = 75,400/11.6=6500
Break-even point =6,500 units
Gabriella and Juanita form Luster Corporation. Gabriella transfers cash of $50,000 for 50 shares of stock, and Juanita transfers information concerning a proprietary process copyright (basis of zero and fair market value of $50,000) for 50 shares of stock. Group of answer choices Neither Gabriella nor Juanita will recognize gain on the transfer. Because Juanita is required to recognize gain on the transfer, Gabriella also must recognize gain. Juanita must recognize gain of $50,000. The transfers to Luster are fully taxable to both Gabriella and Juanita.
Answer: Neither Gabriella nor Juanita will recognize gain on the transfer.
Explanation:
Gabriella made no gain on the transfer as she transferred the same amount of cash the stock was worth and received no benefits.
Juanita also transferred an Intangible Asset that was worth the same amount of money as the shares that she bought for them meaning no benefits accrue either and therefore no gain is recognized.
Final answer:
Neither Gabriella nor Juanita will recognize gain on the transfer to Luster Corporation for stock since it is non-taxable under IRC Section 351, assuming they meet the control requirement after the exchange.
Explanation:
When Gabriella and Juanita form Luster Corporation and transfer assets for the corporation's stock, we need to consider tax implications. Under typical Internal Revenue Code provisions regarding contributions of property to a corporation in exchange for stock (IRC Section 351), if a person contributes property to a corporation and immediately afterward is in control of the corporation, they will not recognize a gain or loss on the transfer. In this case, both Gabriella and Juanita should not recognize any gain as long as Luster Corporation is considered a controlled corporation where they have control immediately following the exchange.
Gabriella's cash transfer of $50,000 for 50 shares and Juanita's transfer of information concerning a proprietary process with a fair market value of $50,000 for 50 shares would both not be taxable events, provided that the control requirement is met and both parties receive only stock of the corporation in return. Juanita's basis of zero in the copyright should not trigger a gain recognition as long as Section 351 applies. Therefore, the correct answer is that neither Gabriella nor Juanita will recognize gain on the transfer.
On April 1, 2020,, Austere Corporation issued $300,000 of 10% bonds at 105. Each $1,000 bond was sold with 25 detachable stock warrants, each permitting the investor to purchase one share of common stock for $17. On that date, the market value of the common stock was $15 per share and the market value of each warrant was $2. Austere should record what amount of the proceeds from the bond issue as an increase in liabilities
Answer:
$300,000
Explanation:
Austere Corporation
Austere Corporation issued $300,000÷ $1,000 bond = $300
$300 x 25 detachable stock warrants = $7,500
7,500 x market value of each warrant was $2= $15,000
$300,000 x bond of 1.05 = $315,000
Hence;
$315,000 – $15,000
= $300,000
Therefore Austere should record $300,000 of the proceeds from the bond issue as an increase in liabilities

3. Operating cash flow is often referred to as the lifeblood of a firm. The vaccine makers received cash up-front from the government for the stockpiled vaccines. Such cash would be reported to stakeholders (financial analysts, stockholders, lenders, etc.) in the operating cash flow section of the Statement of Cash Flows in the fiscal period of receipt. Given this, why would these pharmaceutical companies be so concerned about when the revenue related to this cash is recognized for income statement purposes? In your response, consider how recognized revenues are used by firm stakeholders.
Answer:
Explanation:
Advanced cash payment is treated as liabilities in the financial statements until they are earned.
The accrual method of accounting states that income are recorded when they are earned and expenses recorded when incurred.
In furtherance to this , income are earned when the risks and rewards are transferred to the seller.
This means that until the revenue for this advanced payment is earned , it can not be recorded as a sales revenue in the books of the Vaccine makers , and the profit for the period will be affected , even though it was a boost to the cash flow.
B) Recognized revenue depicts the sales turnover of a company which in turn tells a stakeholder how well a business is doing ,even though it not a sole measure of performance. We need to know that most stake holders may not have a good understanding of other measures of financial performance , however , majority understand sales figure.
It gives the stake holder an insight to the profitability of the business in a period.
Pharmaceutical companies are concerned about when revenue related to up-front cash is recognized for income statement purposes because recognized revenues impact financial performance and stakeholders' perception of the company's financial health and profitability.
Explanation:The pharmaceutical companies would be concerned about when the revenue related to the cash received up-front is recognized for income statement purposes because recognized revenues impact the financial performance of the company and can influence the perception of stakeholders. When revenue is recognized, it indicates that the company has earned income from its core operations, which is an important indicator of a company's financial health and profitability.
Timely recognition of revenue is crucial in assessing a company's ability to generate future cash flows, make investments, and repay obligations. For instance, if the revenue is recognized in a specific fiscal period, stakeholders can evaluate the company's operating cash flow and assess its ability to cover expenses, reinvest in the business, or distribute dividends to shareholders.
Furthermore, stakeholders, such as financial analysts or stockholders, rely on the income statement to understand a company's financial performance and make decisions regarding buying or selling the company's stock. If revenue recognition is delayed, it can affect the accuracy of financial analysis and can create uncertainties that impact stakeholders' perception of the company's financial position.

Answer:
First location 0.95
Second location is 1.06
My analysis is in support of the second location with a present value index
Explanation:
Present value index compares the present value of cash inflows a project with the actual amount invested initially on the project.
A present value in of greater than one suggest that the net present value outweighs the initial capital outlay.
First location:
initial investment was $750,000
present value of cash inflows is $712,500
present value index= $712,500/750,000=0.95
Second location:
initial investment was $800,000
present value of cash inflows is $848,000
present value index= $848,000/$800,000=1.06

Setup cost $30 Annual holding cost $125 per subassembly Daily production 25 subassemblies Annual usage 4 comma 000 (50 weeks times 5 days each timesdaily usage of 16 subassemblies) Lead time 10 days Safety stock 2 days' production Kanban container size = nothing units (round your response to the nearest whole number).
Answer:
Kanban container size = 73
Number of kanbans needed = 5
Explanation:
Kanban container size (Q):
Q = SQRT [(2 x D x S) / H x (1 - d/p)]
where,
D = Annual demand
S = Setup cost
H = Holding cost
d = Daily usage
p = Daily production
Putting the given values in the above formula,
CONTAINER SIZE = SQRT ((2 * ANNUAL DEMAND * SETUP COST) / (HOLDING COST * (1 - (DAILY USAGE / DAILY PRODUCTION))))
Q = SQRT [(2 x 4,000 x $30) / $125 x (1 - 16/25)]
Kanbans container size = 73 units (Rounding off to the nearest whole number)
NUMBER OF KANBANS = DEMAND DURING LEAD TIME + SAFETY STOCK / SIZE OF CONTAINER
K = ((16 * 16) + (4 * 25) / 73 = 5

Yes. There have surely been some violations of the antitrust laws. For the purpose of regulating the trade and commerce, the antitrust law was passed which offers an economic freedom to ensure a competition that is free from any kind of restrictions that hinders the same.
However, the law certainly prohibits any malpractices and unfair trade methods during the process. Accordingly, if Amanda wished to start the practice of her own then such a leasing agent’s statement that the complex cannot entertain advertising doctors, is an indirect way of preventing Amanda from advertising her profession thereby interfering in the pursuance of her economic freedom. Hence a violation of the antitrust laws.

Odessa Corporation had 20,000 shares of $2 par value common stock outstanding on July 1. On that day, the board of directors declared a 10% stock dividend when the market value of each share was $9. The stock dividend is to be distributed on July 20 to stockholders of record on July 10. The entry to record the issuance of the shares on July 20 is
Answer:
Debit Retained earnings $18,000
Credit Common stock $4,000
Credit paid in capital in excess of par value common stock $14,000
(To record declaration of 10% stock dividend)
Explanation:
The overall effect this declaration would has on the retained earnings would be determined using the current market value, meanwhile the effect on common stock would determined using the par value.
The appropriate entries above were determined by:
Stock dividend declared = 10% x 20,000 units x $9 = $18,000
The effect on common stock will be = 10% x 20,000 unit x $2 = $4,000
So, paid in capital in excess of par value common stock is $18,000 - $4,000 = $14,000.
A taxicab company maintain accurate records of the expenses for one of its automobiles from January 1, 1996 through January 1, 2002. It is found from the records, the annual operating expense is $4,000. The maintenance and repair costs are $500 for 1996, $1,000 for year 1997, $1,500 for year 1998, and so on. What is the net present cost of owning and operating the automobile; the initial price was $35,000 and the interest rate is 9%
Answer:
$60,233
Explanation:
the net present cost of operating and owning a taxi:
purchase price = $35,000
1996 = ($4,000 + $500) / 1.09 = $4,128
1997 = ($4,000 + $1,000) / 1.09² = $4,208
1998 = ($4,000 + $1,500) / 1.09³ = $4,247
1999 = ($4,000 + $2,000) / 1.09⁴ = $4,251
2000 = ($4,000 + $2,500) / 1.09⁵ = $4,225
2001 = ($4,000 + $3,000) / 1.09⁶ = $4,174
total = $60,233
The net present cost is the present value of all the costs related to a project or investment. In this case, we must discount all the annual operating costs of the taxi by 9%.

October 90 October 90
Required:
1. Calculate the total forecasted utility cost for 2017 for the following:a. The total utility cost for weldsb. The total utility cost for applicationsc. The total utility cost
Answer:
(a)Total utility cost of welds = $ 31400
(b)Total utility cost for application= $ 32100
(c) Total Utility cost = $ 63500
Explanation:
Using Hi Lo Method
Variable Cost per activity= cost at highest activity level- cost at lowest activity level/ Highest activity level- lowest activity level
Utility variable cost per weld= 4000-2200/150-60 = $20 per weld
Utility variable cost per application= 4500-1800/150-60 = $30 per application
Fixed utility cost of weld = 4000-(20*150)= $1000
Fixed utility cost of application = 4500-(30*150)= $0
From the attached table
Total utility cost of welds = $ 31400
Total utility cost for application= $ 32100
Total Utility cost = $ 63500
Tunnel Incorporated provided the following information regarding its single product: Direct materials used $ 250 comma 000 Direct labor incurred $ 470 comma 000 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 120 comma 000 Fixed manufacturing overhead $100,000 Variable selling and administrative expenses $ 65 comma 000 Fixed selling and administrative expenses $20,000 The regular selling price for the product is $80. The annual quantity of units produced and sold is 43 comma 000 units (the costs above relate to the 43 comma 000 units production level). The company has excess capacity and regular sales will not be affected by this special order. There was no beginning inventory. What would be the effect on operating income of accepting a special order for 9 comma 500 units at a sale price of $ 52 per product assuming additional fixed manufacturing overhead costs of $ 11 comma 000 are incurred? (Round any intermediary calculations to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
increase of $283,058
Explanation:
Consider the incremental Costs and Revenues arising from accepting a special order.
The company has excess capacity therefore, the current fixed overheads would be irrelevant (will have been incurred whether or not the special order is accepted. Also fixed expenses are irrelevant since regular sales will not be affected by this special order.
Sales (9,500× 52) 494,000
Direct materials (250,000/43,000×9,500) (55,233)
Direct labor (470,000/43,000×9,500) (103,837)
Variable manufacturing overhead (120,000/43,000×9,500) (26,512)
Variable selling and administrative (65,000/43,000×9,500) (14,360)
Additional fixed manufacturing overhead costs (11,000)
Net Income 283,058
Therefore an increase of $283,058 would be expected from accepting a special order.
If the government removes a tax on sellers of a good and imposes the same tax on buyers of the good, then the price paid by buyers will:A) increase and the price received by sellers will increase. B) increase and the price received by sellers will not change. C) not change and the price received by sellers will increase. D) not change and the price received by sellers will not change.
Answer:
D) not change and the price received by sellers will not change
Explanation:
If the government removes a tax on sellers of a good and imposes the same tax on buyers of the good, the net amount sellers receive doesn't change. The quantity of goods that are sold also remains the same.
So, price paid by buyers will not change and the price received by sellers will also not change
Kocher Steel typically achieves one of three production levels in any given year: 8 million pounds of steel, 10 million pounds of steel, or 16 million pounds of steel. In tracking some of its costs, Kocher Steel's controller discovered one cost that was $10 per pound no matter what the production level for the year. This is an example of a a. variable cost. b. fixed cost. c. semivariable cost. d. semifixed cost.
Answer:
Fixed cost
Explanation:
Variable costs are costs that change with change in the quantity of the goods or services produced by the business. For example the cost of raw materials.
Fixed costs are costs that do not change with change in the quantity of the goods or services produced by the business. For example interest payments.
In the given question, payment of $10 per pound has to be made no matter what the production level for the year, so this is an example of fixed cost
Consider the following comments about absorption- and variable-costing income statements: I. A variable-costing income statement discloses a firm's contribution margin. II. Cost of goods sold on an absorption-costing income statement includes fixed costs. III. The amount of variable selling and administrative cost is the same on absorption- and variable-costing income statements. Which of the above statements is (are) true?
Statement I, II, and III about absorption-costing and variable-costing income statements are all true. Absorption costing includes fixed costs in COGS, variable costing shows contribution margin, and variable selling and administrative costs are the same under both methods.
Explanation:The student's question refers to the validity of statements concerning absorption-costing and variable-costing income statements and their components. To answer the question:
Statement I is true because a variable-costing income statement does indeed disclose a firm's contribution margin, which is sales revenue minus variable costs.Statement II is also true as the cost of goods sold (COGS) on an absorption-costing income statement includes both variable and fixed costs.Statement III is true because the amount of variable selling and administrative costs remains the same whether using absorption-costing or variable-costing since these costs are not affected by the method used to handle fixed manufacturing overhead.The short-run analysis of total costs breaks them down into fixed costs and variable costs, providing insights into a firm's cost behavior and pricing decisions. This breakdown is key in understanding the differences between absorption and variable costing methods on income statements.
The dividend payout ratio measures the proportion of net income paid out in dividends. A company that pays out more than its earnings as dividends has a payout ratio greater than 100%. Under which of the following scenarios might this occur? a. A firm that is shrinking its asset base (by selling businesses) b. A cyclical firm during a recession year c. A company paying a special dividend (a one time dividend) d. All are correct
Final answer:
Under scenarios including a firm shrinking its asset base, a cyclical firm during a recession, or a company paying a special dividend, the dividend payout ratio can exceed 100%. These situations reflect strategic choices or economic conditions that prompt firms to distribute more to shareholders in dividends than they earned in net income.
Explanation:
The dividend payout ratio is a financial metric used to assess the proportion of a company's net income that is distributed to its shareholders as dividends. A payout ratio greater than 100% indicates that a company is paying out more in dividends than it earns. This could occur under several scenarios:
A company that is strategically downsizing may choose to return capital to shareholders through dividends, possibly resulting in a payout ratio above 100%. This scenario pertains to a firm that is shrinking its asset base by selling off parts of its business.
During an economic downturn, cyclical firms—those whose performance is closely linked to the economic cycle—might see reduced earnings. Nevertheless, these companies might maintain their dividend payments to keep investor confidence, possibly resulting in a payout ratio that exceeds earnings.
A company might issue a special dividend, oftentimes a one-time distribution, which could lead to a temporary payout ratio above 100%. This is often done to distribute excess cash to shareholders or signal confidence in the company's financial health.
In conclusion, all of the provided options (a. shrinking asset base, b. cyclical firm in recession, c. special dividend) are correct situations where a company might have a dividend payout ratio greater than 100%.
Problem 11-3 Blair & Rosen, Inc. (B&R) is a brokerage firm that specializes in investment portfolios designed to meet the specific risk tolerances of its clients. A client who contacted B&R this past week has a maximum of $55,000 to invest. B&R's investment advisor decides to recommend a portfolio consisting of two investment funds: an Internet fund and a Blue Chip fund. The Internet fund has a projected annual return of 12%, while the Blue Chip fund has a projected annual return of 9%. The investment advisor requires that at most $25,000 of the client's funds should be invested in the Internet fund. B&R services include a risk rating for each investment alternative. The Internet fund, which is the more risky of the two investment alternatives, has a risk rating of 5 per thousand dollars invested. The Blue Chip fund has a risk rating of 4 per thousand dollars invested. For example, if $10,000 is invested in each of the two investment funds, B&R's risk rating for the portfolio would be 5(10) + 5(10) = 100. Finally, B&R developed a questionnaire to measure each client's risk tolerance. Based on the responses, each client is classified as a conservative, moderate, or aggressive investor. Suppose that the questionnaire results classified the current client as a moderate investor. B&R recommends that a client who is a moderate investor limit his or her portfolio to a maximum risk rating of 250.
(a) Formulate a linear programming model to find the best investment strategy for this client. Let I = Internet fund investment in thousands B = Blue Chip fund investment in thousands If required, round your answers to two decimal places. I + B s.t. I + B Available investment funds I + B Maximum investment in the internet fund I + B Maximum risk for a moderate investor I, B 0
(b) Build a spreadsheet model and solve the problem using Solver. What is the recommended investment portfolio for this client? Internet Fund = $ Blue Chip Fund = $ What is the annual return for the portfolio? $
(c) Suppose that a second client with $55,000 to invest has been classified as an aggressive investor. B&R recommends that the maximum portfolio risk rating for an aggressive investor is 310. What is the recommended investment portfolio for this aggressive investor? Internet Fund = $ Blue Chip Fund = $ Annual Return = $
(d) Suppose that a third client with $55,000 to invest has been classified as a conservative investor. B&R recommends that the maximum portfolio risk rating for a conservative investor is 150. Develop the recommended investment portfolio for the conservative investor. Internet Fund = $ Blue Chip Fund = $ Annual Return = $
Answer:
a) Formulate a linear programming model to find the best investment strategy for this client as shown below:
Decision variable:
Let,
I = Internet fund investment in thousands
B = Blue Chip fund investment in thousands
Objective Function:
Max Z = 0.12I + 0.09B
Subject to the following constraints:
Investment amountt: I + B [tex]\leq[/tex] 25,000
Risk Rating: [tex]\frac{5}{1000} I[/tex] + [tex]\frac{4}{1000} B[/tex] ≤ 250 or 0.005I + 0.004B ≤ 250
Non-negativity constraint: I, B ≥ 0
Explanation:
See attached images for b, c and d
To solve this problem, we need to define it as a linear programming problem with various constraints based on the different risk levels assigned to each investor type. The solution requires the use of a solver function to identify the optimal investment amounts in the Internet Fund and Blue Chip fund for each investor type.
Explanation:First, let's define the variables: I is the amount invested in the Internet fund in thousands and B is the amount invested in the Blue Chip fund in thousands. The problem can be modeled as a linear programming problem with the following constraints:
I + B ≤ 55 (Total budget of $55,000 converted to thousands) I ≤ 25 (Not more than $25,000 in internet fund)5I + 4B ≤ 250 (Maximum risk level of 250 for a moderate investor)I, B ≥ 0 (Cannot invest a negative amount)The objective is to maximize the annual return which is given by 0.12I + 0.09B.
The optimal solution requires the use of solver function which is typically available in spreadsheet tools like Excel. By running the solver, you would get the optimal investment amounts in Internet and Blue Chip funds. The same procedure would apply for the aggressive and conservative investors with a different risk level (310 and 150 respectively).

19. Fortuna Co. reports the following in its 2016 annual report: 2016 2015 2014 Sales $10,597,336 $10,265,536 $9,893,432 Accounts receivable 900,516 1,052,112 1,141,906 Required: Calculate the accounts receivable turnover and average collection period for 2016 and 2015. Comment on the findings. 20. On January 1 of the current year, Saturn, Inc. had the following accounts on its books: Accounts Receivable $240,000 (debit) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 8,000 (credit) During this year, credit sales were $1,200,000 and collections on account were $1,160,000.
Answer:
For Fortuna Co.
Account receivables turnover ratio = net credit sales during the year / average accounts receivable
2015 = $10,265,536 / [($1,052,112 + $1,141,906)/2] = 9.3582016 = $10,597,336 / [($900,516 + $1,052,112)/2] = 10.854Average collection period = 365 days / accounts receivables turnover ratio
2015 = 365 days / 9.358 = 39 days2016 = 365 days / 10.854 = 33.63 daysSince the accounts receivable turnover ratio is higher for 2016, the average collection period will be shorter. This means that the company is collecting its outstanding credit faster in 2016 than 2015.
For Saturn, Inc.

(1) Wrote off N. Purcell’s account, $6,800.
Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts 6,800 Cr Accounts receivables 6,800(2) Wrote off J. Stein’s account, $2,400.
Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts 2,400 Cr Accounts receivables 2,400(3) J. Stein, who is in bankruptcy, paid $800 in final settlement of the account written off in transaction
first you must reverse the write off
Dr Accounts receivables 800 Cr Bad debt expense 800now you record the collection of the settlement amount
Dr Cash 800 Cr Accounts receivables 800(4) On December 31, estimated the year’s bad debts expense at 1% of credit sales.
balance for allowance for doubtful accounts = $8,000 - $6,800 - $2,400 = -$1,200 or $1,200 debit balance
total credit sales $1,200,000 x 1% (estimated bad debt) = $12,000 credit balance for allowance for doubtful accounts
the journal entry to record bad debt expense:
Dr Bad debt expense 13,200 Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 13,200Assume that you purchased shares of High Flying mutual fund at a net asset value of $12.50 per share. During the year, you received dividend income distributions of $0.78 per share and capital gains distributions of $1.67 per share. At the end of the year, the shares had a net asset value of $13.87 per share. What was your after-"tax" rate of return on this investment
Answer:
30.56%
Explanation:
Net asset value of $13.87 per share
Flying mutual fund at a net asset value of $12.50
Dividend income distributions of $0.78 per share
Capital gains distributions of $1.67 per share
Hence;
R = ($13.87 - $12.50 + 0.78 + 1.67)/$ 12.50
R= 30.56%
Therefore your after-"tax" rate of return on this investment will be 30.56%
