Explanation:
At the beginning of 2019, the Healthy Life Food Company purchased equipment for $42 million to be used in the manufacture of a new line of gourmet frozen foods. The equipment was estimated to have a 10-year service life and no residual value. The straight-line depreciation method was used to measure depreciation for 2019 and 2020. Late in 2021, it became apparent that sales of the new frozen food line were significantly below expectations. The company decided to continue production for two more years (2022 and 2023) and then discontinue the line. At that time, the equipment will be sold for minimal scrap values. The controller, Heather Meyer, was asked by Harvey Dent, the company's chief executive officer (CEO), to determine the appropriate treatment of the change in service life of the equipment. Heather determined that there has been an impairment of value requiring an immediate write-down of the equipment of $12,900,000. The remaining book value would then be depreciated over the equipment's revised service life. The CEO does not like Heather's conclusion because of the effect it would have on 2016 income. "Looks like a simple revision in service life from 10 years to 5 years to me," Dent concluded. "Let's go with it that way, Heather."
Required:
What is the difference in before-tax income between the CEO's and Heather's treatment of the situation? Discuss Heather Meyer's ethical dilemma.

The Eggers Corporation filed an amended Form 1120, claiming an additional $400,000 deduction for payments to a contractor for a prior tax year. The amended return was based on the entity's interpretation of a Regulation that defined deductible advance payment expenditures. The nature of Eggers's activity with the contractor did not exactly fit the language of the Regulation. Nevertheless, because so much tax was at stake, Eggers's tax department decided to claim the deduction. Eggers’s tax department estimated that there was only a 15% chance that Eggers’s interpretation would stand up to a Tax Court review.
a. What is the amount of tax penalty that Eggers is risking by taking this position?
b. What would be the result if there was a 45% chance that Eggers’s interpretation of the Regulation was correct?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. What is the amount of tax penalty that Eggers is risking by taking this position?
The amount of tax penalty that Eggers is risking by taking this position will be:
= $400,000 × 20%
= $400,000 × 20/100
= $400,000 × 0.2
= $80,000
The 20% used is the penalty charged when a claim is more than the final amount that's being allowed by the court or the IRS.
b.What would be the result if there was a 45% chance that Eggers’ interpretation of the Regulation was correct?
The result in this case if there was a 45% chance that Eggers’ interpretation of the Regulation was correct will be that Eggers will have zero tax penalty given. This is because since a reasonable cause was shown by the corporation, the penalty will be waived.
Despite the heavy reliance on e-mail, in certain situations calling may be the most efficient channel of communication, whether mobile or on your office line. Be sure to understand professional expectations for telephone, cell phone, and voice mail etiquette. Identify the telephone etiquette that will make your telephone calls productive. Check all that apply. Avoid telephone tag. End the call politely. Leave complete voice mail messages. Use a three-point introduction. Be professional and courteous.
Answer:
All options are correct
Explanation:
For a telephone call to be effective, it is necessary to introduce three points, where you must name the person you are calling, identify yourself and identify the reason for the telephone contact. It is ideal to avoid phone etiquette, as a clear and objective call will retain more attention and be more efficient.
If you are unable to communicate with the necessary person, it is ideal that the messages left in the voicemail are complete for the perfect understanding and identification of the reasons and how the person can return the contact if necessary.
In a phone call being professional and courteous is essential, through the tone of voice and cordiality of the attendant the attention will increase and the objectives of the call are more likely to be achieved, so throughout the call until its close, education must be the basis, because in addition to being necessary, the professional is a representative of the company that is calling, so ethics, education and cordiality are essential in any professional connection.

Economic growth increases the living standard of people because it raises the average income. People often use this income to buy goods from abroad in case demand is not met by domestic firms.
2. Likely to occur during economic growth and decrease the trade deficit - d. private savings increase
Private savings increase during economic growth because people enjoy a higher disposable income. A share of this private savings are invested abroad, where foreigners use this capital to import goods from the original country, decreasing the trade deficit.
3. Not likely to occur during economic growth - c. private savings decrease
Private savings usually increase during times of economic growth for the reasons explained above.

Explanation:
Calculation to determine The effect of these events and transactions on 2020 income from continuing operations net of tax would be
Using this formula
Effect income from continuing operations net of tax=Strike loss amount-(Strike loss amount*Tax rate )
Let plug in the formula
Effect income from continuing operations net of tax=$124,000 - ($124,000 × .20)
Effect income from continuing operations net of tax=$124,000-$24,800
Effect income from continuing operations net of tax=$99,200
Therefore The effect of these events and transactions on 2020 income from continuing operations net of tax would be $99,200
Koczela Inc. has provided the following data for the month of May: Inventories: Beginning Ending Work in process $ 28,000 $ 23,000 Finished goods $ 57,000 $ 61,000 Additional information: Direct materials $ 68,000 Direct labor cost $ 98,000 Manufacturing overhead cost incurred $ 74,000 Manufacturing overhead cost applied to Work in Process $ 72,000 Any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead is closed out to cost of goods sold. The cost of goods manufactured for May is:
Answer:
COGS= $241,000
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the cost of goods manufactured with allocated overhead:
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
cost of goods manufactured= 28,000 + 68,000 + 98,000 + 72,000 - 23,000
cost of goods manufactured= $243,000
Now, we determine the cost of goods sold:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory
COGS= 57,000 + 243,000 - 61,000
COGS= $239,000
Finally, we close the under/over applied overhead to COGS:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 74,000 - 72,000
Underapplied overhead= $2,000
We need to debit COGS and credit overhead:
COGS 2,000
Manufacturing overhead 2,000
COGS= 239,000 + 2,000
COGS= $241,000
A company that makes modular bevel gear drives with a tight swing ratio for optimizing fork-lift vehicles was told that the interest rate on a loan would be an effective 3.5% per quarter, compounded monthly. The owner, confused by the terminology, asked you to help. What is the APY
Answer:
The APY is 14.9%
Explanation:
To find the annual percentage yield we need to compute the effective annual rate of interest.
The Effective annual rate of return(EAR) is the equivalent rate to be paid where compounding is done frequently at period or interval less than a year.
Compounding implies the regular interval when interest is always computed; in this scenario, it is monthly.
The EAR can be worked out as follows
EAR = ( (1+r)^m - 1 ) × 100
r- interest rate per period
m- number of periods in a year
EAR - Effective annual rate
r = 3.5%/3 = 1.167 % per month
m= number of months in a year = 12
EAR =( 1.01167^12-1)× 100 = 14.9%
The APY is 14.9%
This implies the quoted interest rate of 3.5% per quarter is the same as paying 14.9% per year
Because education has spillover benefits, the private market will: a. underallocate resources to education. b. overallocate resources to education. c. produce too much education. d. produce the socially optimum amount of education.
Answer: produce the socially optimum amount of education
Explanation:
Spillover benefits simply refers to the free benefits which are gotten by third parties due to the actions of other people.
In this case, because education has spillover benefits, the private market will produce the socially optimum amount of education. This is the equilibrium achieved based on the spillover effects from the education.
The output level that reflects all the costs and benefits associated with a transaction i.e. it is the equilibrium that would be achieved if the market outcome reflects the effect of externalities.
A company has bonds on the market with 13 years to maturity, a YTM of 7.6 percent, and a current price of $1,000. The bonds make semiannual payments and have a face value of $1,000. What is the dollar value of each coupon
Answer:
$38.00
Explanation:
The dollar value of each coupon of each coupon is also known as the PMT of the Bond and this is made twice in a year for this question.
The Bond elements can now be established as :
N = 13 x 2 = 26
YTM = 7.6 %
PV = ($1,000)
FV = $1,000
P/YR = 2
PMT = ?
Using a Financial calculator the PMT is $38.00
Thus, the dollar value of each coupon is $38.00
