OC userin AccountingΒ·5 Dec 2017EXERCISE 2-14 High-Low Method; Predicting Cost [L02-4, LO2-5] The Lakeshore Hotel's guest-days of occupancy and custodial supplies expense over the last seven months were: Guest-Days of Occupancy Custodial Supplies Expense Month March ....... April May June ...... July ........ August September ...... 4,000 6,500 8,000 10,500 12,000 9,000 7,500 $7,500 $8,250 $10,500 $12,000 $13,500 $10,750 $9,750 . . . . . . Guest-days is a measure of the overall activity at the hotel. For example, a guest who stays at the hotel for three days is counted as three guest-days. Required: 1. Using the high-low method, estimate a cost formula for custodial supplies expense. 2. Using the cost formula you derived above, what amount of custodial supplies expense would you expect to be incurred at an occupancy level of 11,000 guest-days? 3. Prepare a scattergraph using the data given above. Plot custodial supplies expense on the ver- tical axis and the number of guest-days occupied on the horizontal axis. Draw a straight line 4. through the two data points that correspond to the high and low levels of activity. Make sure your line intersects the Y-axis. Comment on the accuracy of your high-low estimates assuming a least-squares regression analysis estimated the total fixed costs to be $3,973.10 per month and the variable cost to be $0.77 per guest-day. How would the straight line that you drew in requirement 3 differ from a straight line that minimizes the sum of the squared errors? Using the least-squares regression estimates given in requirement 4, what custodial supplies expense would you expect to be incurred at an occupancy level of 11,000 guest-days? 5. Net operating income. $ 6,000 $ 18,000 $ 30,000 Required: 1. Identify each of the company's expenses (including cost of goods sold) as either variable, fixed, or mixed. 2. Using the high-low method, separate each mixed expense into variable and fixed elements. State the cost formula for each mixed expense. 3. Redo the company's income statement at the 5,000-unit level of activity using the contribution format.

OC userin AccountingΒ·4 Dec 2017EXERCISE 2-3 Classification of Costs as Product or Perlod Cost [LO2-3] Suppose that you have been given a summer job as an intern at Issac Aircams, a company that man- ufactures sophisticated spy cameras for remote-controlled military reconnaissance aircraft. The company, which is privately owned, has approached a bank for a loan to help it finance its growth. The bank requires financial statements before approving such a loan. You have been asked to help prepare the financial statements and were given the following list of costs: 1. Depreciation on salespersons' cars. 2. Rent on equipment used in the factory. 3. Lubricants used for machine maintenance. 4. Salaries of personnel who work in the finished goods warehouse. 5. Soap and paper towels used by factory workers at the end of a shift. 6. Factory supervisors' salaries. 7. Heat, water, and power consumed in the factory. 8. Materials used for boxing products for shipment overseas. (Units are not normally boxed.) 9. Advertising costs. 10. Workers' compensation insurance for factory employees. 11. Depreciation on chairs and tables in the factory lunchroom. 12. The wages of the receptionist in the administrative offices. 13. Cost of leasing the corporate jet used by the company's executives. 14. The cost of renting rooms at a Florida resort for the annual sales conference. 15. The cost of packaging the company's product. Required: Classify the above costs as either product costs or period costs for the purpose of preparing the financial statements for the bank.

The hill rises at 36Β° above the horizontal and has coefficients of kinetic friction and static friction of 0.45 and 0.65, respectively, with these rocks. (a) Find the acceleration of the rocks as they slide up the hill. (b) Once a rock reaches its highest point, will it stay there or slide down the hill? If it stays, show why. If it slides, find its acceleration on the way down.
OC userin PhysicsΒ·2 Dec 20179.18 . In a charming 19th-century hotel, an old-style elevator is connected Figure E9.18 to a counterweight by a cable that passes over a rotating disk 2.50 m in diameter (Fig. E9.18). The elevator is raised and lowered by turning the Disk disk, and the cable does not slip on the rim of the disk but turns with it. (a) At how many rpm must the disk turn to raise the elevator at 25.0 cm/s? (b) To start the elevator moving, it must be accelerated at 8. What must be the angular acceleration of the disk, in rad/s"? (c) Through whatCounterweight angle (in radians and degrees) has the disk turned when it has raised the elevator 3.25 m between floors? Elevator

OC userin ChemistryΒ·29 Nov 201742. Which statements are inconsistent with Rutherford's nuclear theory as it was originally stated? Why? a. Since electrons are smaller than protons, and since a hydro- gen atom contains only one proton and one electron, it must follow that the volume of a hydrogen atom is mostly due to the proton. b. A nitrogen atom has seven protons in its nucleus and seven electrons outside of its nucleus. c. A phosphorus atom has 15 protons in its nucleus and 150 electrons outside of its nucleus. d. The majority of the mass of a fluorine atom is due to its nine electrons.
