The AMS technical services department has embarked on a quality improvement effort. Its first project relates to maintaining the target upload speed for its Internet service subscribers. Upload speeds are measured on a standard scale in which the target value is 1.0. Data collected over the past year indicate that the upload speed is approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 1.005 and a standard deviation of 0.10. Each day, one upload speed is measured. The upload speed is considered acceptable if the measurement on the standard scale is between 0.95 and 1.05. EXERCISES 1. Assuming that the distribution has not changed from what it was in the past year, what is the probability that the upload speed is a. less than 1.0? b. between 0.95 and 1.0? c. between 1.0 and 1.05? d. less than 0.95 or greater than 1.05? 2. The objective of the operations team is to reduce the probability that the upload speed is below 1.0. Should the team focus on process improvement that increases the mean upload speed to 1.05 or on process improvement that reduces the standard deviation of the upload speed to 0.075? Explain.



46. The Lamplighter Company, the lessor, agrees to lease equipment t



The Lamplighter Company, the lessor, agrees to lease equipment to Tilson Company, the lessee, beginning January 1, 2007. The lease terms, provisions, and related events are as follows:

The lease is non-cancelable and has a term of eight years. The annual rentals are $32,000, payable at the end of each year. The Tilson Company agrees to pay all executory costs. The interest rate implicit in the lease is 14%. The cost of the equipment to the lessor is $110,000. The lessor incurs no material initial direct costs. The collectibility of the rentals is reasonably assured, and there are no important uncertainties surrounding the amount of unreimbursable costs yet to be incurred by the lessor. The lessor estimates that the fair value at the end of the lease term will be $20,000 and that the economic life of the equipment is nine years.

Required

1. Calculate the selling price implied by the lease and prepare a table summarizing the lease receipts and interest revenue earned by the lessor for this sales-type lease.

2. State why this is a sales-type lease.

3. Prepare journal entries for Lamplighter Company for the years 2007, 2008, and 2010.

68.Read the following letter and help Shady Slim with his tax situation.  Please assume that gross income is $172,900 for purposes of this problem.



December 31, 2015



To the friendly student tax preparer:



Hi, it’s Shady Slim again. I just got back from my 55th birthday party, and I’m told that you need some more information from me in order to complete my tax return. I’m an open book  I’ll tell you whatever I think you need to know.



I had to move this year after getting my job at Roca Cola. We moved on February 3 of this year, and I worked my job at Roca Cola for the rest of the year. I still live in the same state, but I moved 500 miles away from my old house. I left a little bit early to go on a house-hunting trip that cost me a total of $450. I hired a moving company to move our stuff at a cost of $2,300, and I drove Junior in my car. Junior and I got a hotel room along the way that cost us $45 (I love Super 8). We spent $35 on meals on the way to our new home. Oh yeah, I took Junior to a movie on the way and that cost $20.



Can you believe I’m still paying off my student loans, even after 15 years?  I paid a total of $900 in interest on my old student loans this year.



Since Roca Coca (my employer) never started a retirement plan, I decided I should probably start saving for my golden years.  I contributed $3,000 to what the bank referred to as a regular IRA (or was it a REM?).  Oh yeah. I also did a little investing this year. I bought a limited partnership interest in Duds, Ltd. for $10,000.  I thought it was going to be a real winner, but this year they took a bath. My portion of the loss was $8,000. Well, at least I did not actually do any work for Duds, and I get the tax deduction - right?



That should be all the information you need right now. Please calculate my adjusted gross income and complete page 1 of Form 1040.  You’re still doing this for free, right?

Canyon reported $106,000 of net income for the year by using variable costing. The company had no beginning inventory, planned and actual production of 50,000 units, and sales of 47,000 units.

A. $52,000.

B. $97,000.

C. $106,000.

D. $115,000.

E. $160,000.



 



Please show work so that I can apply this to another problem. Thanks!
