When Sandra and Charles Givens were divorced, the court ordered a division of property and awarded Sandra $65,000. The award was

a judgment against Charles, who failed to pay it. Sandra asked the court to find Charles in contempt. Their lawyers had a conference with the judge, and they agreed that Charles would pay $2500 immediately and $300 per month until the judgment was paid in full. Charles alleged that the new payment schedule was a binding contract, because Sandra had accepted his offer of payments. Was it a contract

Answer:

Yes, it is a binding contract.

Explanation:

A contract is a legal binding agreement between two or more parties at the court of law. The agreement could be in terms of money, services, right or duties between the parties involved.

Since a consent has been reached between the two parties before the judge, Charles would pay the sum in the stipulated manner. The acceptance of the offer of payment by Sandra made it a binding contract for Charles, so he is bound by this service until he pays the full amount to Sandra.

Freytag Corporation's variable overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor-hours. The company has established the following
Aleks04 [339]

Solution

Given :

Standard direct labor hours = 4.6 hours per unit

Standard variable overhead rate = $ 4.60 per hour

Actual direct labor hours worked = 9400

Actual variable overhead incurred = $ 44,940

Number of units of N06C = 2100 units

Therefore, output absorbed, V.OH = SHAO x budget OH/hr

                                                    = (2100 units x 4.6 per unit) x $ 4.60 per hour

                                                    = $ 44,436

The Input Absorbed V.OH = actual hours x budgeted OH/hour

                                            = 9400 x $ 4.60 per hour

                                            = $ 43,240

Therefore, the variable overhead rate variance is = $ 43,240 - $ 44,436

                                                                                  = $ 1196 (U)

The mars climate orbiter crashed on the surface of mars becausea. one program output thrust in terms of foot-pounds, and another
klasskru [66]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. The Mars Climate Orbiter crashed on the surface of Mars because one program output thrust in terms of foot-pounds, and another program expected thrust to be expressed in terms of newtons.

Explanation:

The Mars Climate Orbiter was NASA’s unsuccessful mission to study the Martian climate, part of the Mars Surveyor 98 program. The MCO was created as a satellite-translator for the Mars Polar Lander lander, and after the latter ceased to function, it was supposed to study the Martian climate.

The Mars Climate Orbiter was destroyed when a navigation error caused the probe to be improperly elevated as it entered orbit. The vehicle was destroyed by the friction and stresses in Mars' atmosphere. An investigation showed that some data for the rocket system were calculated in English units (pound-force-second) while the navigation team expected SI units (Newton-second).

Kit Company borrows $5 million at 12% on January 1, 2016, specifically for the purpose of financing the construction of a buildi
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

1. The amount of interest expense Kit would capitalize related to the construction of the building is <u>$300,000</u>.

2. The amount of interest revenue Kit would recognize is <u>$275,000</u>.

3. The amount of interest revenue Kit would capitalized as per IFRS  (IAS 23) is <u>$25,000</u>.

Explanation:

1. Compute the amount of interest expense Kit would capitalize related to the construction of the building.$

Note: See part 1 of the attached excel file for the calculation of average expenses incurred for the building

Average expenses incurred for the building = $2,500,000

Interest rate = 12%

Interest expense to capitalize = $2,500,000 * 12% = $300,000

Therefore, the amount of interest expense Kit would capitalize related to the construction of the building is <u>$300,000</u>.

2. Compute the amount of interest revenue Kit would recognize.$

Note: See part 2 of the attached excel file for the calculation of the total interest revenue.

Amount of interest revenue = $275,000

Therefore, the amount of interest revenue Kit would recognize is <u>$275,000</u>.

3. Assume that Kit uses IFRS. What amount of interest would be capitalized related to the construction of the building?$

The IAS 23 Clause 12 states that to the extent that an entity borrows funds specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the entity shall determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization as the actual borrowing costs incurred on that borrowing during the period less any investment income on the temporary investment of those borrowings.

Based on the above, the amount of interest that would be capitalized related to the construction of the building can be calculated as follows:

Amount of interest revenue to capitalized as per IFRS = Interest expense to capitalize - Total interest income = $3000,000 - $275,000 = $25,000

Therefore, the amount of interest revenue Kit would capitalized as per IFRS  (IAS 23) is <u>$25,000</u>.
