Complete Question:

Baldwin's workforce is set to increase by 10% next year, preserving the same extra recruitment costs above the $1,000 baseline, amounting to $694 for each employee. The current complement is 434, with 67 new employees last year. How much will they allocate to recruiting this year?

Answer: $84,700

Explanation:

Total employees = 434 + 67 = 501

As stated, Baldwin's workforce is expected to grow by 10%.

Thus, existing staff x 110% = 501 x 110% = 551 (employee count cannot include decimals).

Indicating an increase of 50 employees.

Baldwin will incur a cost of $694 + $1,000 = $1,694

So, for the additional 50 employees, the total costs will be $1,694

Consequently, Baldwin's overall recruiting expenditure would be (50 x $1,694) = $ 84,700

harina [3808]
Tamarisk should report an inventory amount of $252,000 as of December 31. To arrive at this figure, consider the following calculation: Inventory = Stock on hand + goods acquired from Sheffield Corp + goods sold to Wildhorse Co. This gives us the calculation: $190,000 + $29,000 + $33,000 = $252,000. All relevant amounts were taken into account, including considerations for FOB destination and FOB shipping point, which contribute to the physical inventory count.

Following is partial information for the income statement of Audio Solutions Company under three different inventory costing met
Nady [3600]

Answer:

The calculations are presented below:

Explanation:

1.                       FIFO    LIFO Average cost  

Cost of goods sold      

Beginning inventory       $11,200      $11,200  $11,200

(400 units ×  $28)                          

Purchases                       $16,625    $16,625   $16,625

(475 units × 35)                  

Total goods available $27,825    $27,825   $27,825  

Ending inventory             $18,025    $15,575    $16,695

(525 units)  

Cost of goods sold          $9,800    $12,250    $11,130  

Calculated using ending inventory = 475 × $35 + 50 × $28    

FIFO = $18,025  

For LIFO ending inventory: 400 × $28 + 125 × $35

Results in $15,575  

Average cost is found by: $27,825 ÷ $875    

Which equals 31.8      

Ending inventory is calculated as 525 × 31.8

This leads to $16,695

2.                           FIFO            LIFO         Average

Sales

(307 × $50)                $15,350         $15,350    $15,350

Cost of goods sold     $9,800    $12,250    $11,130

Gross Profit                 $5,550           $3,100      $4,220

Expenses                     $1,680           $1,680      $1,680

Net income                  $3,870           $1,420       $2,540

3. FIFO ranks as 3

LIFO ranks as 2

Average ranks as 1

Washington inc. issued $705,000 of 6%, 20-year bonds at 98 on January 1, 2009. Through January 1, 2017, Washington amortized $8,
soldi70 [3635]

Response:

$20,000

Clarification:

At the issuance of the bond, the bond discount is calculated as follows:

= Value of Bonds issued -  [(Value of Bonds issued ÷ 100) × Issue price]

= 705,000 - [($705,000 ÷ 100) × 98]

= $705,000 - $690,900

= $14,100

Bond Payable equals $705,000

The unamortized bond discount is calculated as:

= Bond discount at issuance - Amortized amount

= $14,100 - $8,200

= $5,900

Redemption Value of Bond is determined by:

= Retired price of bonds × 7,050

= 102 × 7,050

= $719,100

Loss on retirement of the Bond is calculated as:

= Redemption Value of Bond - (Value of Bonds issued -  Unamortized bond discount)

= 719,100 - (705,000 - 5,900)

= 719,100 - 699,100

= $20,000
