Answer:
$4,200
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Cash dividend payments = $25,000.
Cash from selling of Long-term investments = $79,000.
Cash used for purchasing a building costing $198,000 = $19,800
Sale of equipment = $37,000
Long term note payable = $92,000 cash
Now,
The net cash from investing activities will be
= sale of long term investments - purchase of building + sale of equipment - purchase of investments
= $79,000 - $19,800 + $37,000 - $92000
= $4,200.
You want to buy a house and will need to borrow $255,000. The interest rate on your loan is 5.89 percent compounded monthly and the loan is for 25 years. What are your monthly mortgage payments
Answer: $1,626
Explanation:
A Mortgage payment is a type of annuity so the Present Value of an Annuity formula can be used to calculate this.
The Period is 12 months so adjustments need to be made to the interest rate and the period.
Period.
= 25 years * 12 months
= 300
Interest Rate
= 5.89/12
= 0.4908%
Present Value of the Annuity is the mortgage amount of $255,000
Present Value of Annuity is,
P = PMT ( 1 - ( 1 + r)^-n) / r
Where,
P = Present Value
PMT = payment per period
r = Interest rate
n= no. of periods
255,000 = PMT ( 1 - (1+0.4908%)^-³⁰⁰) / 0.4908%
255,000 = 156.8456 PMT
PMT = 255,000/156.8456
= $1,625.80
= $1,626

Answer:
The correct answer is: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
Explanation:
To begin with, the concept known as ''Corporate Social Responsibility'' refers to a type of position adopted by the organization in order to achieve certain goals that are related to the subjects of the state of people, the health of the planet and its environment and take all that and combine it with the typically normal profit goal of every business so in that way the members of the organization can act with the purpose of achievieng all those.
A worker can choose high (H) or low (L) effort. If the worker chooses high effort, she incurs a personal cost of 1. In this case, output is high with probability one. If the worker chooses low effort, she incurs a personal cost of 0. In this case, output is low with probability one. When output is high, the firm receives revenue of O and zero otherwise. Can the same outcome be achieved when effort is unobservable?
A. Yes, because the firm would find it wothwhile to pay the bonus for high effort.
B. No, because for any bonus offered, the worker will claim to have exerted high effort.
C. No, because the firm has to pay the bonus based on output.
D. Yes, because effort can be perfectly inferred from output, which is observable.
Answer:
B. No, because for any bonus offered, the worker will claim to have exerted high effort.
Explanation:
This question required some basic reasoning about how human beings function. We all like to receive things from others, and if they are free (or without cost or effort) the more we like them. And we all believe that good things should happen to us and that we are entitled to receive good things. That is the basic reason why jealousy and envy exist.
Now, back to our case. If the company simply hands out bonuses to everyone regardless of their personal effort, every single worker will be convinced that they really deserve the bonus. Even if the worker didn't even try to do his best or didn't do anything right at all, he/she will be convinced that they deserve the bonus. Each and every single worker will claim that the reason they are receiving the bonus is due to their work. Everyone will say that they worked hard and their work was good.
Imagine this happened at school. One day, the teacher decides to give As to half the class in alphabetical order (or any other random way). The half that got the As will believe that they deserved the As while the other half will be very unhappy. If everyone got As, then everyone will be convinced that thy got As because they deserved them.
Consider the business Dave’s Doughnuts. Which of the following is a sunk cost of this business? Group of answer choices The monthly rent Dave must pay to use a building downtown The wages Dave pays to his workers who make the doughnuts The expenses that went into research and development of a new doughnut flavor The salary that Dave could be earning elsewhere if he didn’t own the business None of the above
Answer:
The expenses that went into research and development of a new doughnut flavor
Explanation:
A sunk cost is a cost that has already been incurred and cannot be recovered. It is money that has already been spent. Sunk costs are bygone and are not to be considered when deciding whether to continue an investment project.
The expenses that went into research and development of a new doughnut flavor is a sunk cost since the cost has been incurred already and cannot be recovered because it is not a relevant cost.
A pension fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The first is a stock fund, the second is a long-term government and corporate bond fund, and the third is a T-bill money market fund that yields a sure rate of 4.4%. The probability distributions of the risky funds are: Expected Return Standard Deviation Stock fund (S) 14% 34% Bond fund (B) 5% 28% The correlation between the fund returns is 0.0214. What is the expected return and standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio of the two risky funds
Answer:
Explanation:
Expected Return stock fund ([tex]E_{rs[/tex]) = 14% = 0.14, Expected Return bond fund ([tex]E_{rb[/tex]) = 5% = 0.05, Standard Deviation stock fund ([tex]\sigma_s[/tex]) = 34% = 0.34, Standard Deviation bond fund ([tex]\sigma_b[/tex]) = 28% = 0.28, correlation (ρ) between the fund returns is 0.0214
The following information is from the records of Pangolin Camera Shop: Bad expense is estimated by the aging-of-receivables method. Management estimates that $2,950 of accounts receivable will be uncollectible. Calculate the amount of net accounts receivable after the adjustment for bad debts. Supporting Materials / Group of answer choices $22,950 $22,050 $21,150 $20,800
Answer:
$22,050
Explanation:
The computation of the net account receivable after the adjustment of bad debt is shown below:
As we know that
Net account receivable = Account receivable - bad debt expense
= $25,000 - $2,950
= $22,050
By deducting the bad debt expense from the account receivable we can get the net account receivable and the same is to be considered
hence, the correct option is B.
Christmas Timber, Inc., produces Christmas trees. The trees are produced through a cutting and pruning process. Machine maintenance and janitorial labors are performed throughout the production process by nonproduction employees. Maintenance and janitorial costs are allocated based on machine hours used and the number of trees in each department, respectively. The company estimates that the cutting and pruning areas typically have about 6 and 54 trees, respectively, in them at 1 time. The company also estimates that the cutting process requires about 9 times as many machine hours as the pruning process. The total costs of each department are as follows:
Maintenance Department $7,800
Janitorial Department 5,000
Cutting Department 54,500
Pruning Department 11,000
Using the direct method of support department cost allocation, determine the total cost of each production department after allocating all support costs to the production departments.
Answer:
Cutting = $62,020
Pruning = $16,280
Explanation:
The direct method does not consider the impact of reciprocal servicing arrangement when allocating the overhead of service centers and only allocates overhead to the production cost centers only.
Allocation of Overhead
Janitorial overhead
Cutting = 6/(6+54)× $5,000 = $500
Pruning =54/(6+54) × $5,000= $4,500
Maintenance overhead
Cutting = 9/(9+1)× $7,800 = $7020
Pruning =1/(9+1) × $7,800= $780
Total cost of production department
Cutting = 54,500 + 500 + 7020= 62,020
Pruning department = 11,000 + 4,500 + 780 = 16,280
Cutting = $62,020
Pruning = $16,280
"ART Company just paid a dividend of $2.00. The dividend is expected to grow by 10% this year, 9% in year two and 6% in year three. Then, beginning in year four, the dividend will begin growing at a constant rate of 4%. With a required return of 10%, what is the stock worth today
Answer:
The stock is worth $38.99 per share today
Explanation:
We can calculate the value of the stock using the dividend discount model approach (DDM). The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. To calculate the price of the stock today, we simply discount back all the future expected dividends and terminal value (calculated when the growth rate in dividends become constant) to their present value using the required rate of return as the discount factor.
The value of ART company's stock today will be,
P0 or V0 = 2 * (1+0.1) / (1+0.1) + 2 * (1+0.1)*(1+0.09) / (1+0.1)^2 +

A) market-penetration strategy
B) outsourcing strategy
C) geographic-expansion strategy
D) product differentiation strategy
E) ethnocentric strategy

Garrison 16e Rechecks 2017-10-31
Answer:
Direct material price variance= $1,638 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials 7.7 ounces $ 2.00 per ounce $ 15.40
Purchases of raw materials 23,400 ounces
Actual cost of raw materials purchases $ 45,100
To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Actual price= 45,100/23,400= $1.93
Direct material price variance= (2 - 1.93)*23,400
Direct material price variance= $1,638 favorable
Helix Company has been approached by a new customer to provide 2,000 units of its regular product at a special price of $6 per unit. The regular selling price of the product is $8 per unit. Helix is operating at 75% of its capacity of 10,000 units. Identify whether the following costs are relevant to Helix's decision as to whether to accept the order at the special selling price. No additional fixed manufacturing overhead will be incurred because of this order. The only additional selling expense on this order will be a $0.50 per unit shipping cost. There will be no additional administrative expenses because of this order. Calculate the operating income from the order.
Answer:
Helix decision would be to accept this order at the special price because from the calculations they will still have a net income of $2,000 at this special price of $6 per unit
Explanation:
Selling price: at $6 per unit; This is a relevant cost ; Revenue = ($6*2000) units) $12,000
_________________________
Direct material cost: at $1 per unit; This is a relevant cost; Revenue = (1 * 2000) $2000
____________________________
Direct labor cost: at $2 per unit; This is a relevant cost ; Revenue = (2 * 2000) $4000
____________________________
Variable manufacturing overhead: at $1.50 per unit; This is a relevant cost; Revenue = (1.50 * 2000) $3,000
____________________________
Fixed manufacturing overhead: at $0.75 per unif; This is not a relevant cost; Revenue = $0 (not relevant)
_____________________________
Regular selling expenses: at $1.25 per unit; This is not a relevant cost; Revenue = $0(not relevant)
______________________________
Additional selling expenses(shipping cost) : at $0.50 per unit; This is a relevant cost; Revenue = (0.50 * 2000) $1,000
______________________________
Administrative expenses: at $0.75 per unit; This is not a relevant cost; Revenue = $0
__________________________
Total operating expenses: Sum of all relevant cost = (Direct material cost + Direct labor cost + Variable manufacturing overhead + Additional selling expenses) = ($2,000 + $4,000 + $3,000 + $1,000) = $10,000
__________________________
Net income : (Selling price - Total operating expenses)= ($12,000 - $10,000) = $2,000

Helix decision would be to accept this order at the special price because from the calculations they will still have a net income of $2,000 at this special price of $6 per unit
The WorldLight Company produces two light fixtures (products 1 and 2) that require both metal frame parts and electrical components. Management wants to determine how many units of each product to produce so as to maximize profit. For each unit of product 1, 1 unitof frame parts and 2 units of electrical components are required. For each unit of product 2, 3 units of frame parts and 2 units of electrical components are required. The company has 200 units of frame parts and 300 units of electrical components. Each unit of product 1 gives a profit of $2, and each unit of product 2, up to 70 units, gives a profit of $4. Any excess over 60 units of product 2 brings no profit, so such an excess has been ruled out. Formulate a linear programming model for this problem. Use the graphical method to solve this model. What is the resulting total profit?
Answer:
Explanation:
a) x1 = number of unit product 1 to produce , and
x2 number of unit product 2 to produce
A linear program that will maximize world light profit is the following
maximize [tex]x_1+2x_2[/tex] subject to [tex]x_1+3x_2\leq 200[/tex]
[tex]2x_1+2x_2\leq 300\\\\x_2\leq 60\\\\x_1\geq 0\\\\x_2\geq 0[/tex]
Unit 1 is used both in products in 1 : 3 ratio which can be a maximum of 200 unit 2 is used in 2 : 2 ratio which can be maximum of 300
So, this can be written as the inequations
Profit functio is p = 0ne dollar on product A and two dollar on product B
= x + 2y
Now , we find a feasible area whose extremeties will give the maximum profit for, the graph is ( see attached file )
So on the graph, we can get the other extremeties of the shaded regional so which will not give maximum profit ,
Thus , the maximum possible profit is
p = ($1 * 125) + ($2 * 25)
= $175
Total profit according to graph function is $175.
Profit function based problem:Given that;
Number of unit product 1 to produce = x1
Number of unit product 2 to produce = x2
Computation:
The following is a linear algorithm that will maximize global light profit.
x1 + 2x2 and x1 + 3x2 ≤ 200
2x1 + 2x2 ≤ 300
x2 ≤ 60
x1 ≥ 0
x2 ≥ 0
Unit 1 is used in both products in a 1: 3 ratio with a maximum of 200 units, while Unit 2 is used in a 2: 2 ratio with a maximum of 300 units.
As a result, this may be stated as inequations.
p = one dollar on product A and two dollars on product B = x + 2y is the profit function.
So,
p = ($1 × 125) + ($2 × 25)
P = 125 + 50
Profit = $175

Microsoft has offered to purchase Yahoo and buy your shares at a price of $ 34 per share. What will be your return if you tender your shares to Microsoft and the deal is completed
Answer:
Return = 41.67%
Explanation
The return on a share is the sum of e capital gains and the dividend received all expressed as a percentage of the of the amount invested.
In the absence of the payment of dividend, the return
Return = capital gain/ Price of share × 100
Capital gain= Price of shares now - cost of shares
Capital gain = 34- 24 = 10
Return = 10/24 × 100 = 41.66666667
Return (%) = 41.67%
Lindley Enterprises sells hand-woven rugs. Paige Corporation is a regular customer of Lindley. On June 30, Paige purchased 500 rugs from Lindley for $400,000 on credit. On August 15, Paige paid Lindley in full on its $400,000 balance. Required: Prepare the related journal entries for Lindley.
Answer:
Sales on June 30:
Dr accounts receivable $400,000
Cr sales revenue $400,000
On August 15:
Dr cash $400,000
Cr accounts receivable $400,000
Explanation:
On June 30 when Lindley Enterprises sold 500 rugs worth $400,000 to Paige Corporation ,Lindley would have to recognize sales of $400,000 since the rugs have been transferred to Paige Corporation by crediting sales revenue and debiting accounts receivable with $400,000.
On August 15,Lindley would have received cash of $400,000 in respect of their earlier sales,hence accounts receivable should be credited while cash account is debited

A company issues a callable (at par) ten-year, 6% coupon bond with annual coupon payments. The bond can be called at par in one year after release or any time after that on a coupon payment date. On release, it has a price of $104 per $100 of face value. What is the yield to worst of this bond when it is released
Answer:
6.32%
Explanation:
This can be calculate using the YTC using the following equation:
YTC = (C + (CP - P) / t) / ((CP + P) / 2) .......................... (1)
Where:
YTC = YTW = yield to call or yield to worst = ?
C = annual coupon interest payment = bond interest rate * Bond price = 6% * $100 = $6
CP = call price of the bond = $104
P = price of the bond = $100
t = time in years remaining until the call date = 10 - 1 = 9 years
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
YTC = ($6 + ($104 - $100) / 9) / (($104 + $100) / 2) = 0.0632, or 6.32%
Murphy Printers (MP) manufactures printers. Assume that MP recently paid $ 500 comma 000 for a patent on a new laser printer. Although it gives legal protection for 20 years, the patent is expected to provide a competitive advantage for only eight years.
Requirements
1. Assuming the straight-line method of amortization, make journal entries to record (a) the purchase of the patent and (b) amortization for the first full year.
2. After using the patent for four years, MP learns at an industry trade show that another company is designing a more efficient printer. On the basis of this new information, MP decides, starting with year 5, to amortize the remaining cost of the patent over two remaining years, giving the patent a total useful life of six years. Record amortization for year 5.
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
1. The journal entries to record the purchase of the patent and the amortization for the first full year has been solved and attached.
2. The amortization expense of he 4 years will be:
= $62500 × 4
= $250,000
Therefore, the book value of the patent will be:
= Cost of the patent - amortization expense
= 500,000 - 250,000
= $250,000
Amortization for year 5 = Book value/Estimated useful life remaining
= 250,000/2
= $125,000
The journal for the amortization expense for year 5 has been attached
Pennewell Publishing Inc. (PP) is a zero growth company. It currently has zero debt and its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $80,000. PP's current cost of equity is 10%, and its tax rate is 40%. The firm has 10,000 shares of common stock outstanding selling at a price per share of $48.00. Refer to the data for Pennewell Publishing Inc. (PP). Assume that PP is considering changing from its original capital structure to a new capital structure with 35% debt and 65% equity. This results in a weighted average cost of capital equal to 9.4% and a new value of operations of $510,638. Assume PP raises $178,723 in new debt and purchases T-bills to hold until it makes the stock repurchase. PP then sells the T-bills and uses the proceeds to repurchase stock. How many shares remain after the repurchase, and what is the stock price per share immediately after the repurchase?
Answer:
Price per share after repurchase = $51.064
Shares remaining after repurchase = 6500
Explanation:
Given the following :
Value of operations = $510,638
Value of T-bills = value of debt = $178,723
Therefore, value of equity = $510,638
Number of common shares = 10,000
Price per share = Value of equity / Number of shares
Price per share = $510,638 / 10,000 = $51.064
Price per share prior to repurchase is the same as price per share after repurchase.
However, number of shares repurchased equals;
$178,723 / $51.064 = 3499.99 = 3500 shares
Number of shares left after repurchase :
Totals shares - shares repurchased
10,000 - 3500 = 6,500
Arizona Crystal is a distributor of feldspar, amethyst and other mystically powerful types of crystals. The owner of Arizona Crystal, Geri Moonbeam, is proud to be a part of the movement that is contributing to the higher spirituality of the world. Geri buys crystals from local collectors and then ships them out to wholesalers throughout the country. Geri pays cash for the crystals, but she extends credit to the wholesalers. As the business has grown, problems have arisen. When Geri buys more crystals than she can sell, inventory increases and cash flow problems arise. When Geri doesn’t buy enough crystals, then she can’t fill orders and that creates problems with her customers. She needs to base her buying decisions on accurate forecasts of the demand for crystals so she can avoid these problems. After consulting her tarot cards, Geri visits a friend from El Paso, Texas, who channels for a Wall Street tycoon who didn’t survive the crash of 1929. He recommends that, since she only has twelve months of data, she should try using a moving average or exponential smoothing forecasting model. So Geri contacts you. She provides you with data on the number of crystals (in thousands) ordered during each of the past twelve months and asks you to help her develop a forecasting model. 8. Use a five period moving average model to forecast the demand in January of 1993. Also calculate the RMSE for this model. Use the table below to carry out your calculations. How does this model compare with the three period model?

The model has higher values of demand and RMSE than that of three month moving average model
Which of the following statements is FALSE about opportunity cost? A. Opportunity cost exists only for goods with monetary values. B. Cost is always foregone opportunity. C. When a person buys two items, the concept of opportunity cost applies even though she can afford to buy both items. D. Opportunity cost is the next best alternative.
Answer:
A. Opportunity cost exists only for goods with monetary values.
Explanation:
Fundamentally, these are costs in economics used in analysis of a project, and it can also be used for calculation of cost benefits. It is generally known to measure or do all calculation that deals with the current and also forgone alternatives in any condition but this is mainly in economics where it is mostly used.
It is said that when a person buys two or more items, the concept of opportunity cost applies even though she can afford to buy both items and also known to be the best alternative. Here also, cost is notified as foregone opportunity.

Adams operates his $57500 firm using his own equity. Bob operates his firm with $28750 of his own money plus $28750 of debt at a cost of 5 percent interest. Calculate Adams's and Bob's return on equity if their respective businesses produce earnings before interest and tax of $7000. Assume perfect markets.
Answer:
Adam return on equity is 12.1%. while Bob return on equity is 19.3%
Explanation:
Given that:
Now,
For Adam:
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) = Net income + Interest + Taxes
EBIT = $7000
The equity of shareholders = $57500
The number of debt by which Adams shows no interest expense and no tax expense as perfect market presumed is stated s follows:
ROE = Net income /Average Shareholder Equity
=$7000/$57500
=0.121739
Therefore, Adam return on equity is 12.1%
For Bob
The equity of shareholders = $28750
The expense (interest) = Debt * Interest rate
=$28750 * 0.05
= 1437.5
Thus
Net income = EBIT - Interest
= 7000 -1437.5
=5562.5
Now,
ROE = Net income /Average Shareholder Equity
=5562.5 /$28750
= 0.19347
=19.3%
Therefore, Bob return on equity is 19.3%
You have just turned 30 years old, have just received your MBA, and have accepted your first job. Now you must decide how much money to put into your retirement plan. You are required to specify a fixed percentage of your salary that you want to contribute. Assume that your starting salary is $ 70 comma 000 per year and it will grow 1.8 % per year until you retire. Every dollar in the plan earns 6.5 % per year. You cannot make withdrawals until you retire on your sixty-fifth birthday. After that point, you can make withdrawals as you see fit. You decide that you will plan to live to 100 and work until you turn 65. You estimate that to live comfortably in retirement, you will need $ 97 comma 000 per year starting at the end of the first year of retirement and ending on your 100th birthday. What percentage of your income do you need to contribute to the plan every year to fund your retirement income?
Answer:
Find attached
Explanation:
The present value of $97,000 per year after retirement for 35 years is computed thus:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is the plan rate of return of 6.5%
nper is 35 years(years after retirement)
pmt is the amount required per year
fv is not applicable is taken as zero
=-pv(6.5%,35,97000,0)=$1,327,634.80
The amount needed in the account at retirement is the future value of the plan.
Regular yearly payment into the plan is =pmt
=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)
=-pmt(6.5%,35,0,1327634.80)=$ 10,703.74
The percentage of income that must be contributed is found in the attached
Solar Innovations Corporation bought a machine at the beginning of the year at a cost of $25,000. The estimated useful life was five years and the residual value was $3,000. Assume that the estimated productive life of the machine is 10,000 units. Expected annual production was year 1, 2,000 units; year 2, 3,000 units; year 3, 2,000 units; year 4, 2,000 units; and year 5, 1,000 units. Required: Complete a depreciation schedule for each of the alternative methods. a. Straight-line. b. Units-of-production. c. Double-declining-balance. Which method will result in the highest net income in year 2
Answer:
The straight line depreciation will result in highest net income in year 2.
Explanation:
a. Straight Line:
( Cost - residual value ) / useful life
( $25,000 - $3,000 ) 5
Depreciation = $4,400
b. Units of production:
( cost * annual production ) / Total expected production over life
Year 1: $25,000 * 2,000 units / 10,000 units = $5,000
Year 1: $25,000 * 3,000 units / 10,000 units = $7,500
c. Double declining balance:
100% / 5 years = 20% * 2 = 40%
Year 1: $25,000 * 40% = $10,000
Year 2: $15000 * 40% = $6,000
Timm Inc., a calendar year, accrual basis taxpayer, is being sued by a customer who was injured when she tripped over a loose carpet in Timm's retail store. Timm's auditors required the corporation to accrue a $500,000 contingent liability and current year expense. Which of the following statements is true?
a. Timm can deduct the $500,000 accrued expense.
b. Timm can never deduct the $500,000 expense.
c. Timm can deduct the expense in the year in which the liability becomes fixed and determinable.
d. Timm can deduct the expense in the year of payment.
Answer: d. Timm can deduct the expense in the year of payment.
Explanation:
A Contingent Liability refers to a liability that a company MIGHT incur if a future event happens. It is mostly often used for law suits in case a company has to pay damages. They will thus accrue the expense in readiness to pay it off should the need ever arise.
While Timm will record it in the books, there is no need to deduct it from the income yet. Timm should wait until the year they will have to pay to deduct it. That way the expense will be correctly apportioned to it's corresponding period.
