Also note: See the attached excel file to see how the prepared Arturo’s journal entry look like.

Note that the Goodwill is calculated as follows:

Goodwill = Inventory + Land + Buildings + Customer Relationships - Accounts payable - Common Stock (28,700 shares * $2) - Additional Paid-In Capital [28,700 shares * ($50-$2)] - Cash = $191,750 + $119,750 + $2,447,250 + $867,750 - $104,000 - $57,400 - $1,377,600 - $3,780,000 = $1,692,500

A production department's output for the most recent month consisted of 12,500 units completed and transferred to the next stage of production and 12,500 units in ending Work in Process inventory. The units in ending Work in Process inventory were 65% complete with respect to both direct materials and conversion costs. There were 1,500 units in beginning Work in Process inventory, and they were 85% complete with respect to both direct materials and conversion costs. Calculate the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method.

GDP is calculated as the total market value of all final goods and services produced in a country during a year. (1) Suppose that in 2019, geologists discover large reserves of oil in Alaska which have a market value estimated at $50 billion at current oil prices. (2) Oil companies rush in and spend $1 billion to hire workers and position equipment to begin exploratory pumping during the same year. (3) One company accidentally spills some oil into a bay and by the end of the year pays $1 billion to other companies to clean it up. (4) The oil spill kills thousands of birds, seals, and other wildlife. What would be the effect of each of these 4 events on the US GDP for 2019 and why

Andrew lives in New York City and runs a business that sells boats. In an average year, he receives $793,000 from selling boats. Of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer, a wholesale cost of $430,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totaling $301,000.

Bosques Corporation has in stock 35,800 kilograms of material L that it bought fiveyears ago for $5.55 per kilogram. This raw material was purchased to use in a productline that has been discontinued. Material L can be sold as is for scrap for $1.67 perkilogram. An alternative would be to use material L in one of the company's currentproducts, Q08C, which currently requires 2 kilograms of a raw material that isavailable for $9.15 per kilogram. Material L can be modified at a cost of $0.78 perkilogram so that it can be used as a substitute for this material in the production ofproduct Q08C. However, after modification, 4 kilograms of material L is required forevery unit of product Q08C that is produced. Bosques Corporation has now received arequest from a company that could use material L in its production process. Assumingthat Bosques Corporation could use all of its stock of material L to make productQ08C or the company could sell all of its stock of the material at the current scrapprice of $1.67 per kilogram, what is the minimum acceptable selling price of materialL to the company that could use material L in its own production process

EcoFabrics has budgeted overhead costs of $945,000. It has allocated overhead on a plantwide basis to its two products (wool and cotton) using direct labor hours which are estimated to be 450,000 for the current year. The company has decided to experiment with activity-based costing and has created two activity cost pools and related activity cost drivers. These two cost pools are cutting (cost driver is machine hours) and design (cost driver is number of setups). Overhead allocated to the cutting cost pool is $360,000, and $585,000 is allocated to the design cost pool.Additional information related to these pools is as follows:Machine hours wool: 100,000Number of set ups wool: 1,000Machine hours cotton: 100,000Number of set ups cotton: 500Machine hours total: 200,000Number of setups total: 1,500The amount of overhead allocated to the wool product line and the cotton product line using activity-based costing & traditional approach is as follows:ABC wool: $570,000Traditional wool: $472,500ABC cotton: $375,000Traditional cotton: $472,500Required:How does allocation using the traditional approach compare with the amount allocated using ABC?

6. Limitations of GDP Although GDP is a reasonably good measure of a nation's output, it does not necessarily include all transactions and production for that nation. Which of the following scenarios are either not accounted for or measured inaccurately by either the income or the expenditure methods of calculating GDP for the United States? Check all that apply. The quality of goods available to consumers The costs of air and water pollution Expenditures on federal highways The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government When a U.S. company purchases and imports wood from Brazil to use to build new houses within the United States, this purchase increases the component of GDP while also net exports by the same amount. Therefore, the purchase of wood from Brazil causes in US GDP. g

Suppose it is decided that rent control in New York City will be abolished and that market rents will now prevail. Assume that all rental units are identical and so are offered at the same rent. To address the plight of residents who may be unable to pay the market rent, an income supplement will be paid to all low - income households equal to the difference between the old controlled rent and the new market rent. Are tenants better or worse off as a result of these policies?

#2 - You are organizing an exploratory meeting with engineering representatives from a dozen manufacturers from around the world to discuss updates to a technical standard that all the companies' products must adhere to. The representatives have a wide range of firmly held opinions on the subject because the changes could help some companies and hurt others. They can't even agree on what should be addressed in the first meeting, so you need to develop a minimum level of consensus on what should be on the agenda. Which combination of media and channels would you use to move the conversation forward and finalize the agenda? Each company has one representative, and any discussions need to be kept confidential.
