In the Vasquez Corporation, any overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead is closed out to Cost of Goods Sold. Last yea

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Cost of Goods Sold, after adjustment for overapplied manufacturing overhead, for the year must have been $69,000.

Explanation:

From the question, we have:

Applied manufacturing overhead cost = $29,000

Actual manufacturing overhead cost = $27,000

Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year = $71,000

Overapplied manufacturing overhead = Applied manufacturing overhead cost - Actual manufacturing overhead cost = $29,000 - $27,000 = $2,000

Therefore, we have:

Cost of Goods Sold = Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year - Overapplied manufacturing overhead = $71,000 - $2,000 = $69,000

Therefore, Cost of Goods Sold, after adjustment for overapplied manufacturing overhead, for the year must have been $69,000.

Trueware Corporation is a start-up firm with a capital structure that includes 25 percent debt. Trueware has no preferred stock.

defon

Answer:

$1.53

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the difference in earnings per share (EPS) for the capital structure

Debt = 0.25 × Total assets = 0.25 × $500,000

Debt= $125,000

Equity = (1 − 0.25) × Total assets = 0.75 × $500,000

Equity = $375,000

Net income (NIRuby) = [EBIT - (Cost of debt × Total debt)] × (1 - Tax rate)

Net income (NIRuby) = [$80,000 - (0.10 × $125,000)] × (1 - 0.3)

Net income (NIRuby= $47,250

EPSRuby = Net income/Number of shares outstanding

EPSRuby = $47,250/22,000 shares

EPSRuby= $2.15 per share

Net income (NIEmerald) = [EBIT - (Cost of debt × Total debt)] × (1 - Tax rate)

Net income (NIEmerald) = [$32,000 - (0.10 × $125,000)] × (1 - 0.3)

Net income (NIEmerald) = $13,650

EPSEmerald = Net income/Number of shares outstanding

EPSEmerald = $13,650/22,000 shares

EPSEmerald= $0.62 per share

Difference between the earnings per share = $2.15 - $0.62

Difference between the earnings per share= $1.53

Therefore the difference in earnings per share (EPS) for the capital structure is $1.53

Annie is self-employed and has $58,000 in income from her business. She also has investments that generated dividends of $3,000

8090 [49]

First, you need to know the self-employment taxes:
The self-employment tax is 92.35%
Social security tax is 12.4% and Medicare tax is 2.9% = (15.3%)

Dividends and interest are not a part of the income.

58000 * 92.35% *15.3%
Turn the percentages into decimal form in order to multiply. You can do this by moving the decimals over twice or dividing each percentage by 100.

58000*.9235 * .153 = $8,195.

Annie's self-employment tax for the year is $8,195.
