For the entries below, identify the account to be debited and the account to be credited. Indicate which of the accounts is the income statement account and which is the balance sheet account. Assume the company records prepayments of expenses in asset accounts, and cash receipts of unearned revenues in liability accounts. Entry to record consulting services performed but not yet billed or recorded. Entry to record service revenues performed but not yet billed or recorded. Entry to record rent expense incurred but not yet paid. Entry to record expiration of prepaid rent. Entry to record supplies used as supplies expense.
The accounts to be debited are:
A) Entry to record consulting services performed but not yet billed is debited to Accounts Receivable. This is a balance sheet item. In balance sheets, Accounts receivables are listed as assets. To increase assets in the balance sheet, you debit. To decrease it, you credit. Liabilities on the other hand are increased by crediting and decreased by debiting the same.
B) Entry to record service revenues performed but not yet billed or recorded is debited to Accounts Receivable. This also follows the same format in A above.
C) Entry to record rent expense incurred but not yet paid is credited to Accounts payable. This is also a balance sheet item. Recall the principle in A above.
D) Entry to record expiration of prepaid rent: This is an Income statement posting. Given that the rent was paid for but now expired that is, unusable, it, therefore, is an expense. The expense account will be credited.
E) Entry to record supplies used as supplies expense is credited to Supplies Expenses account. This is an income statement account. According to the principle of double-entry, you debit the receiver and credit the giver.

w.1: Treasury Securities = Reserves = Current transaction deposits * Current reserve requirement percentage = $500 million * 10% = $50 million
w.2: New initial required reserves = Current transaction deposits * New reserve requirement percentage = $500 million * 8% = $500 million * 8% = $40 million
w.3: Change in bank deposits = (1/(New reserve requirement percentage + (1 – Percentage returned by borrowers))) * (Old initial required reserves - New initial required reserves) * Percentage of excess reserves converted to loans by National Bank = (1/(8% + (1 - 50%))) * (50 million - $40 million) * 100 = 17.24 million
w.4: New transaction deposits = Current transaction deposits + Change in bank deposits = $500 million + $17.24 million = $517.24 million
w.5: Treasury Securities = Reserve deposits at Fed = New transaction deposits * New reserve requirement percentage = $517.24 million * 8% = $41.38 million

For part b.
w.7: New initial required reserves = Current transaction deposits * New reserve requirement percentage = $500 million * 8% = $500 million * 8% = $40 million
w.8: Change in bank deposits = (1/(New reserve requirement percentage + (1 – Percentage returned by borrowers))) * (Old initial required reserves - New initial required reserves) * Percentage of excess reserves converted to loans by National Bank = (1/(8% + (1 - 60%))) * (50 million - $40 million) * 75% = 15.63 million
w.9: New transaction deposits = Current transaction deposits + Change in bank deposits = $500 million + $15.63 million = $515.63 million
w.10: Reserve deposits at Fed = New transaction deposits * New reserve requirement percentage = $515.63 million * 8% = $41.25 million

Answer:
a. Taxable income coming from short term
= $102,000 + $5,000 + ($10,000 - $7,500) = $109,500
b. Taxable income coming from long term & dividends
= $750 + $16,000 + ($17,000 - $8,000) = $25,750
dividends are taxed as ordinary income, only long term capital gains are taxed at 15%
c. Total Federal Tax owned
ordinary income = $126,250 - $12,000 = $114,250
long term capital gains = $9,000
ordinary tax liability = $14,089.50 + [24% x ($114,250 - $82,500)] = $21,709.50
long term capital gains = $9,000 x 15% = $1,350
total tax liability = $23,059.50
d. Marginal Tax rate
24%
e. Average Tax rate
$21,709.50 / $114,250 = 19%

Explanation:
As stated earlier, business transactions that affect earnings do not necessarily affect cash. This fact is demonstrated in the above examples. Unless the transaction is for cash and affects a revenue or expense account, it will not affect cash and earnings at the same time. An example of a transaction that affects both is the sale of goods for cash. This will increase the cash balance as well as boasting the earnings. Another example is the cash payment for rent expense. This will reduce the cash balance as well as reduce the earnings.

FIFO and Weighted average cost method are the two methods of Process costing. The company is already using the FIFO method for accounting of inventory under which cost are misappropriated into closing WIP.
To solve such issue, the company can use the weighted average method under which cost is calculated by weighted average and then evenly distributed to the unit transferred to other department and the ending work in process.
Example: Suppose company purchased goods lying stock 20000 units at $5 each. Weighted average cost calculated per unit is $3 per unit. Calculate Closing work in process
==> FIFO = 20000*5 = $100,000
==> Weighted average cost = 20000 * 3 = $60,000

dentify which of the following statements is true. Group of answer choices The gift tax exclusion is available only for a gift of a present interest. A purpose of the annual exclusion is to eliminate the necessity of accounting for and reporting small gifts such as those made for weddings and Christmas. A present interest is an unrestricted right to the immediate use, possession, or enjoyment of property or the income from property. All of the above are true.
Answer:
Option D (All of the above are true) would be the right approach.
Explanation:
Future rewards of involvement aren't really able to qualify for allowance from taxation on presents as well as exclusions. Thus, only gifts of even more present involvement were also eligible to claim exemption on presents. This same sets up exemption has been tasked with the responsibility of eliminating the financial statements of thoughtful gifts besides formal events, and so much more.Present interest seems to be a responsibility which really characterizes this same authority for using, possess as well as appreciate the possessions or its earnings instantaneously. So all the points are valid.

Kansas Enterprises purchased equipment for $60,000 on January 1, 2021. The equipment is expected to have a five-year service life, with a residual value of $5,000 at the end of five years. Using the double-declining balance method, depreciation expense for 2021 would be:
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $11,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $60,000
Salvage value= $5,000
Useful life= 5 years
To calculate the depreciation expense under the double-declining balance method, we need to use the following formula:
Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]
Annual depreciation= (60,000 - 5,000) / 5
Annual depreciation= $11,000
The depreciation expense using the double-declining balance method for 2021 starts from $24,000 and finally in the fifth year the residual value will be left that is $4,666.
What is double-declining method of depreciation?When opposed to straight-line depreciation, which employs the same amount of depreciation each year, the double-declining balance depreciation method technique is an expedited depreciation approach that counts as an expense more quickly.
The formula for depreciation using double-declining depreciation:
[tex]\rm\,Periodic\,Depreciation\,expense= Beginning\,book\,value\times\,Rate\,of \,depreciation.[/tex]
[tex]\rm\,Rate\,of\,depreciation= \\\\\ Expense = \(\dfrac{100\%}{Useful\,life\,of\,the\,asset}\times\,2\\\\Expense = \dfrac{100\%}{5}\times\,2\\\\= 40\%[/tex]
The calculation of the depreciation amount for the given case has been attached in the image below.
Hence, Kansas enterprise will have the following depreciation amounts using the double-declining-balance method for the period of 5 years: $24,000,$14,400, $8,640, $5,184, and $3,110 respectively.

The law of demand affirms that an increase in price results in reduced demand. It means that when prices increase, consumers will buy fewer quantities of a product or service. The law of demand shows the relationship between price and the quantity of a product consumers are willing to buy in the market.
Consumers can communicate with producers through the volume of products purchased. When the quantity purchased is low, producers will know the set prices are high.
says that the quantity demanded of a good folls when the price of 1 point the good rises.
A) The Law of Supply
B) The Law of Demand
C) Market Structure
D) Market Equilibrium
Answer:
B) The Law of Demand
Explanation:
The correlation between the volume demanded, and the price of a good is explained by demand law. As per this law, price and the quantity demanded have an indirect or inverse relationship. An increase or decrease in price results in quantity demanded moving in the opposite direction.
Should the prices of a product or service increase, its demand falls.
Suppose you know that a company's stock currently sells for $57 per share and the required return on the stock is 10.4%. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between capital gains yield and dividend yield. If it's the company's policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, what is the current dividend per share?
What is the dividend per share in Year 4?
Answer:
$2.82
Explanation:
Calculation for what is the current dividend per share
First step is to calculate the Dividend yield
Dividend yield= 1/2 (.104)
Dividend yield= .052
Now let calculate the current dividend per share
Current dividend per share=(.052*57 per share)/(1+0.052)
Current dividend per share= 2.964/1.052
Current dividend per share=$2.82
Therefore the Current dividend per share will be $2.82
The Internal Revenue Service Department of Tax Regulations writes regulations in accord with laws passed by Congress. On average, the department completes 300 projects per year. The Wall Street Journal reported that, as of October 11, 1997, the number of projects "on the Department’s plate" was 588. Nevertheless, the department head claimed that average time to complete a project was under six months. Do you have any reason to disagree? Why or why not?
Answer:
The IRS's claim (that the average time it takes to complete a project is < 6 months) is wrong. It takes the Department 23.52 months to complete a project.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Number of projects "on the Department’s plate" (I) = 588 Projects
Average projects completed per year (R) = 300 Projects
Therefore, the flow time (the average time to complete a project by the department), T, = I / R
= 588 / 300 = 1.96 years = 1.96 X 12 = 23.52 months
b) The steps to calculate flow time (the amount of time a flow unit spends in a business process from beginning to end) are given as:
1. The number of projects handled over a period of time.
2. Let R = the number of units produced / duration of time period .
3. Compute the average inventory (I).
4. Compute flow time T =I/R.

Randolph Company reported pretax net income from continuing operations of $1,010,500 and taxable income of $667,500. The book-tax difference of $343,000 was due to a $213,000 favorable temporary difference relating to depreciation, an unfavorable temporary difference of $138,000 due to an increase in the reserve for bad debts, and a $268,000 favorable permanent difference from the receipt of life insurance proceeds. Randolph Company’s applicable tax rate is 34%.A. Compute Randolph Company’s current income tax expense.B. Complete the reconciliation of Randolph Company’s effective tax rate with its hypothetical tax rate of 34%C. Compute Randolph Company’s effective tax rate.
D. Compute Randolph Company’s deferred income tax expense or benefit.
Answer:
A. Current income tax expense = $226,950
B. Reconciliation of effective tax rate with hypothetical tax rate gives an effective tax rate of 24.98%.
C. Effective tax rate = 24.98%
D. Deferred income tax expense is $25,500
Explanation:
A. Compute Randolph Company’s current income tax expense.
Current income tax expense = (Pretax net income from continuing operations - Favorable temporary difference relating to depreciation + Unfavorable temporary difference - Favorable permanent difference) * Applicable tax rate = ($1,010,500 - $213,000 + $138,000 - $268,000) * 34% = $226,950
B. Complete the reconciliation of Randolph Company’s effective tax rate with its hypothetical tax rate of 34%
Hypothetical tax rate = Applicable tax rate = 34%
Income tax expense = Pretax net income from continuing operations * Applicable tax rate = $1,010,500 * 34% = $343,570
Tax benefit from Favorable permanent difference = Favorable permanent difference * Applicable tax rate = $268,000 * 34% = $91,120
Income tax provision = Income tax expense - Tax benefit from Favorable permanent difference = $343,570 - $91,120 = $252,450
Rate of tax benefit from Favorable permanent difference = (Tax benefit from Favorable permanent difference / Pretax net income from continuing operations) * 100 = ($91,120 / $1,010,500) * 100 = 9.02%
Therefore, we have reconciliation of effective tax rate with hypothetical tax rate as follows:
Effective tax rate = Hypothetical tax rate - Rate of tax benefit from Favorable permanent difference = 34% - 9.02% = 24.98%
C. Compute Randolph Company’s effective tax rate.
Effective tax rate = (Total income provision / Pretax net income) * 100 ......... (1)
Where:
Total income provision = Current income tax expense + Deferred income tax expense = $226,950 + $25,500 = $252,450
Pretax net income = $1,010,500
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Effective tax rate = ($252,450 / $1,010,500) * 100 = 24.98%
D. Compute Randolph Company’s deferred income tax expense or benefit.
Deferred income tax expense or benefit = (-Favorable temporary difference relating to depreciation + Unfavorable temporary difference) * Applicable tax rate = (-$213,000 + $138,000) * 34% = -$25,500
Since the answer is negative, it implies that it is a Deferred income tax expense of $25,500
3. Aztec Furnishings makes hand-crafted furniture for sale in its retail stores. The furniture maker has recently installed a new assembly process, including a new sander and polisher. With this new system, production has increased to 90 pieces of furniture per day from the previous 60 pieces of furniture per day. The number of defective items produced has dropped from 12 pieces per day to 5 per day. The production facility operates strictly eight hours per day. Evaluate the change in productivity for Aztec using the new assembly process. Please show your work and any formulas utilized.
Answer:
77.08%
Explanation:
Calculation to Evaluate the change in productivity for Aztec using the new assembly process
Using this formula
Change in productivity =[( Increased in production- Dropped in defective items produced)-(Previous pieces of furniture per day-Dropped in defective items produced)]/-(Previous pieces of furniture per day-Dropped in defective items produced)*100
Let plug in the formula
Change in productivity =[(90 pieces per day-5 per day)-(60 pieces per day-12 pieces per day )/(60 pieces per day-12 pieces per day) *100
Change in productivity =(85-48)/48*100
Change in productivity =37/48*100
Change in productivity =0.7708*100
Change in productivity =77.08%
Therefore the change in productivity for Aztec using the new assembly process will be 77.08% Increase in productivity.
