Answer:
The correct option is C, $14.29
Explanation:
A 7-2 stock split means that 7 shares now have the value of 2 shares held previously.
This simply means that a stockholder who had 2 shares before the stock split now has 7 shares.
The price of the share after the stock split the value of 2 shares before stock split divided by 7 shares i.e ($50*2)/7=$ 14.29
The correct option from the multiple choices is $ 14.29

Required:
For each of the events in above, prepare journal entries. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
a.
Cash 16500 Dr
Common Stock 16500 Cr
b.
Cash 13500 Dr
Notes Payable 13500 Cr
c.
Equipment account 1450 Dr

d.
Land 25000 Dr
Cash 2300 Cr
Notes Payable 22700 Cr
e.
Equipment account 9500 Dr
Cash 2300 Cr
Accounts Payable 7200 Cr
Explanation:
a.
The issuance of common stock against cash will increase the cash and the capital. So cash will be debited and capital (common stock) will be credited.
b.
The issuance of notes payable against cash increases liability and asset. The asset increase in cash will be debited and liability increase in notes payable will be credited.
c.
The purchase of equipment on account will increase liability and asset. The asset increase in form of equipment will be debited and the liability increase in form of accounts payable will be credited.
d.
The purchase of land will increase land and result in a debit to the land account. It is purchased for cash and a liability of notes payable. So both cash and the notes payable account will be credited as cash decreases (asset decrease in credited) and liability increases (liability increase is credited).
e.
The purchase of equipment will increase equipment account and result in a debit to the equipment account. It is purchased for cash and a liability of accounts payable. So both cash and the accounts payable account will be credited as cash decreases (asset decrease in credited) and liability increases (liability increase is credited).
The Aberdeen Development Corporation (ADC) is considering an Aberdeen Resort Hotel project. It would be located on the picturesque banks of Grays Harbor and have its own championship-level golf course. The cost to purchase the land would be $1 million, payable now. Construction costs would be approximately $2 million, payable at the end of year 1. However, the construction costs are uncertain. These costs could be up to 20 percent higher or lower than the estimate of $2 million. Assume that the construction costs would follow a triangular distribution. ADC is very uncertain about the annual operating profits (or losses) that would be generated once the hotel is constructed. Its best estimate for the annual operating profit that would be generated in years 2, 3, 4, and 5 is $700,000. Due to the great uncertainty, the estimate of the standard deviation of the annual operating profit in each year also is $700,000. Assume that the yearly profits are statistically independent and follow the normal distribution. After year 5, ADC plans to sell the hotel. The selling price is likely to be somewhere between $4 and $8 million (assume a uniform distribution). ADC uses a 10 percent discount rate for calculating net present value. (For purposes of this calculation, assume that each year's profits are received at year-end.) Use Analytic Solver to perform 1,000 trials of a computer simulation of this project on a spreadsheet.
(a) What is the mean net present value (NPV) of the project?
(b) What is the estimated probability that the project will yield an NPV greater than $2 million?
(c) ADC also is concerned about cash flow in years 2, 3, 4, and 5. Generate a forecast of the distribution of the minimum annual operating profit (undiscounted) earned in any of the four years. What is the mean value of the minimum annual operating profit over the four years?
(d) What is the probability that the annual operating profit will be at least $0 in all four years of operation?
Certain balance sheet accounts of a foreign subsidiary of the Rose Co. had been stated in U.S. dollars as follows: Stated at Current Rates Historical Rates Accounts receivable—current $ 280,000 $ 308,000 Accounts receivable—long term 140,000 154,000 Prepaid insurance 70,000 77,000 Goodwill 112,000 119,000 Totals $ 602,000 $ 658,000 If the subsidiary's local currency is its functional currency, what total amount should be included in Tulip's balance sheet in U.S. dollars? $658,000. $609,000. $616,000. $602,000.
Answer:
$602,000
Explanation:
Since the foreign currency is the functional currency in this case, what is required to be done is the translation of the balance sheet accounts, not a remeasurement of the accounts.
The guiding principle is that when the financial statement of subsidiary is prepared using functional currency, assets and liabilities should be translated using the current rates.
Since $602,000 is the total using the current in the question, the total amount that should be included in Tulip's balance sheet in U.S. dollars is therefore $602,000.

You purchased GARP stock one year ago at a price of $67.67 per share. Today, you sold your stock and earned a total return of 18.79 percent. The stock paid dividends of$2.92 per share over the year. What was the capital gains yield on your investment
Answer:
14.48%
Explanation:
The capital gains yield on the investment is increase in share price divided by the initial price paid to acquire the share a year ago.
The total return formula can be used to figure the price the stock was when sold as below:
total return =P1-Po+D/Po
P1 is the current price which is unknown
Po is the initial price of $67.67
total return is 18.79%
D is the dividend of $2.92
0.1879=P1-67.67+2.92/67.67
0.1879*67.67=P1-64.75
12.72=P1-64.75
P1=12.72+64.75
P1=77.47
Capital gains yield=(77.47 -67.67)/67.67=14.48%
Why is research ethics important?

1.They promote the aims of research, such as expanding knowledge.
2.They support the values required for collaborative work
3. They support important social and moral values,
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. Funds spent by city governments to renovate their buildings The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government The costs of air and water pollution The variety of goods available to consumers When a U.S. company purchases and imports automotive parts from Canada to use to build cars within the United States, this purchase increases the component of GDP while also net exports by the same amount. Therefore, the purchase of automotive parts from Canada causes in US GDP.
Answer:
The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government
The costs of air and water pollution
The variety of goods available to consumers
It increases investment spending by businesses
Decreasing net export
No change
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the sum of the goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year.
Gross domestic product calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending + Investment spending + net export + government spending
Items not included in the calculation of GDP:
1. Intermediate goods
2. Externalities e.g. pollution
3. Measures of welfare available to individuals
4. Transactions not reported to the government.
Funds spent by city governments to renovate their buildings are included in GDP as part of investment spending.
Purchase of automative parts would be included in GDP as part of investment spending. So investment spending would rise. Also, it would be recorded as an import and import is a negative function of GDP and thus net export would decrease . As a result, the increase in investment spending would be offset by the decrease in net export and there would be no change in GDP

A stock sells for $50. The next dividend will be $5 per share. If the rate of return earned on reinvested funds is a constant 15% and the company reinvests a constant 20% of earnings in the firm, what must be the discount rate
Answer:
The answer is 13%
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
A stock sells for =$50
The next dividend is = $5 per share
The rate of return = 15%
Company reinvests a constant of =20%
What is the rate of discount = ?
Now
The first step is to calculate the rate of growth which is shown below:
g = equity return * retention rate
g = 15% * 0.2 = 3%
Thus,
The Gordon growth model is stated below:
Stock price = dividend in following year/ (discount - g)
So,
50 = 5/ (discount - g)
The discount - g = 5/50
Discount - g = 10%
The discount = 10 + 3 = 13%
Therefore the discount rate =13%
In the long-run, a company will choose a manufacturing plant size that has the Multiple Choice minimum average total cost of producing the target level of output. maximum level of resource use per unit of the total product of output. capacity to produce the largest quantity of the product. minimum of average fixed costs.
Answer:
minimum average total cost of producing the target level of output.
Explanation:
Firms will always seek a profit maximizing output. This means that they will choose a manufacturing plant that allows them to sell more units while keeping the lowest possible marginal costs. This means that they will focus on choosing a production level that minimizes the average total cost for a certain amount of expected production.
Analyzing Accounts Receivable Changes The comparative balance sheets of Sloan Company reveal that accounts receivable (before deducting allowances) increased by $15,000 in 2013. During the same time period, the allowance for uncollectible accounts increased by $2,100. If sales revenue was $120,000 in 2013 and bad debts expense was 2.5% of sales, how much cash was collected from customers during the year?
Answer:
Cash was collected from customers during the year was $ 104,100
Explanation:
Sales revenue = $120,000
Bad debt expense = 2.5% of sales
Therefore, Bad debt expense = $120,000 x 2.5% = $3,000
Thus, allowance for uncollectible accounts should have increased by $3,000. But it increased by $2,100.
Therefore, uncollectible accounts receivable of $900 ($3,000 - $2,100) were written off during that year.
Cash collected from customers = Sales revenue - Increase in accounts receivable - Uncollectible accounts written off
= $120,000 - $15,000 - $900
= $104,100
Break-Even Sales Currently, the unit selling price of a product is $280, the unit variable cost is $230, and the total fixed costs are $560,000. A proposal is being evaluated to increase the unit selling price to $310. a. Compute the current break-even sales (units). units b. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units), assuming that the unit selling price is increased and all costs remain constant. units
Answer:
a.
Break even in units sales = 11200 units
b.
Break even in units sales = 7000 units
Explanation:
Break even sales in units is the number of units needed to be sold in order for the company to reach a point where it covers all of its total cost with its total revenue and break evens. It is a point of no profit and no loss and the total revenue is equal to the total costs.
The formula to calculate break even in units is,
Break even in units = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit
Where, contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
a.
Break even in units = 560000 / (280 - 230)
Break even in units = 11200 units
b.
Anticipated Break even in units = 560000 / (310 - 230)
Anticipated Break even in units = 7000 units
Mary offered to sell Mike several pieces of rare Chinese art at a very good price because they were duplicates in her own collection. Mike could not accept the offer at that time, but he did give Mary $500 in return for her promise to keep her offer open for three (3) weeks. Mike returned with the agreed-upon balance two weeks later to find that Mary already had sold the pieces she had offered to sell to him. Mary explained that she had been able to get a better price from another buyer. She offered to return Mike's $500 and insisted that this was all she was obligated to do. Is Mary right?
Answer: She is not.
Explanation:
It would seem as though that Mary got into a type of contract known as an Option Contract or more precisely, a Call Option Contract simply called a Call.
In this type on contract, a seller gives a buyer the right to buy a good or service at a certain price within a set period.
Mary agreed to sell the rare Chinese Art for a certain amount which Mike could not pay but she promised to give him 3 weeks to take it within which he can pay and collect the item.
Mike returned in 2 weeks which was within the range of time allowed and so she should have kept the offer open for the time she said she would.
She is wrong to believe that all she owes him is his down payment. She broke a contract.
On November 1, Bahama National Bank lends $3.8 million and accepts a six-month, 6% note receivable. Interest is due at maturity. Record the acceptance of the note and the appropriate adjustment for interest revenue at December 31, the end of the reporting period. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field. Enter your answers in dollars, not in millions (i.e. 5 should be entered as 5,000,000).)
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entries are shown below:
a. Note receivable Dr $3,800,000
To Cash $3,800,000
(Being the acceptance of the note is recorded)
For recording this we debited the note receivable as it increased the assets and credited the cash as it decreased the liabilities
b. Interest receivable Dr $38,000
To Interest revenue $38,000
(Being the interest revenue is recorded)
For recording this we debited the interest receivable as it increased the assets and credited the interest revenue as it increased the revenue
The computation is shown below:
= $3,800,000 × 6% × 2 months ÷ 12 months
= $38,000

Which of the following statements is correct?a. The cost of new equity (re) could possibly be lower than the cost of retained earnings (rs) if the market risk premium, risk-free rate, and the company's beta all decline by a sufficiently large amount.b. The component cost of preferred stock is expressed as rp(1 - T), because preferred stock dividends are treated as fixed charges, similar to the treatment of interest on debt.c. Its cost of retained earnings is the rate of return shareholders require on a firm's common stock.d. We should use historical measures of the component costs from prior financing when estimating a company's WACC for capital budgeting purposes.
Answer:
c. Its cost of retained earnings is the rate of return shareholders require on a firm's common stock.
Explanation:
The formula to compute the cost of retained earning is as follows
Cost of retained earning = (Expected annual dividend ÷ Price of the stock) + growth rate
It is the rate of return that equates with the cost of equity plus it also earns on the investment done in the company i.e equity
In a mathematical expression,
Cost of retained earnings = Cost of equity
hence, the correct option is c.
Closing Entries with Net Income Assume that the entry closing total revenues of $3,190,000 and total expenses of $2,350,000 has been made for the year ending December 31. At the end of the fiscal year, Teresa Schafer, Capital has a credit balance of $1,885,000 and Teresa Schafer, Drawing has a balance of $770,000. a. Journalize the entry required to close the Teresa Schafer, Drawing account. b. Determine the amount of Teresa Schafer, Capital at the end of the period. $
Answer:
a. Debit Teresa's Capital account for $770,000; and Credit Teresa's Drawing account for $770,000.
b. Teresa Schafer, Capital at the end of the period is $$1,955,000
Explanation:
a. Journalize the entry required to close the Teresa Schafer, Drawing account.
Since the drawing will affect capital by reducing it, the journal entry will look as follows:
Particulars Dr ($) Cr ($)
Teresa's Capital account 770,000
Teresa's Drawing account 770,000
(To record the closing the Teresa Schafer, Drawing account.)
b. Determine the amount of Teresa Schafer, Capital at the end of the period.
To do this, we have to calculate the net profit first as follows:
Net profit = Total revenue - Total cost = $3,190,000 - $2,350,000 = $840,000
Since net profit will increase capita while drawing will reduce capital, we therefore have:
Capital at the end of the period = Capital + Net profit - Drawing = $1,885,000 + $840,000 - $770,000 = $1,955,000.
Therefore, Teresa Schafer, Capital at the end of the period is $$1,955,000.
In 2010, the MoreForLess Company had revenues of $2,000,000 while costs were $1,500,000. In 2011, MoreForLess will be introducing a new product line that will generate $200,000 in sales revenues and $160,000 in costs. Assuming no changes are expected for the other products, the differential operating profit for 2011 is
Answer:
Differential profit Profit = $40,000
Explanation:
The differential operating profit is the difference between the operating profit before the introduction of the product and after the introduction of the new product
Profit = Revenue - costs
Profit before the introduction of the new product
= 2,000,000 - 1,500,000 = 500,000
Profit after the introduction of the new product
New revenue = (2,000,000 + 200,000) = 2,200,000
Cumulative cost = 1,500,000 + 160,000 = 1,660,000
Profit = 2,200,000 - 1,660,000 = 540000
Differential profit Profit = 540,000 - 500,000= $40,000
Your coin collection contains 59,1952 silver dollars. If your grandparents purchased them for their face value when they were new, how much will your collection be worth when you retire in 2053, assuming they appreciate at an annual rate of 6.6 percent?
Answer:
The collection is worth $37,525.78.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Your coin collection contains 59 1952 silver dollars.
Interest rate= 6.6%
Number of years= 2053 - 1952= 101 years
To calculate the value of the collection today, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 59*(1.066^101)
FV= $37,525.78
Several studies indicate that the use of collaborative research agreement (between several firms, research centers, suppliers, competitors, universities, etc.) is increasing around the world. What are some reasons collaborative research is becoming more prevalent?
Answer & Explanation: Collaborative research refers to a research or study done by different independent bodies. Take for instance a scientist intends to undertake a study, he sorts the collaboration of a university.
Several benefits exist in collaborative research some of which includes;
1). It creates opportunity for an individual to develop as a scholarly author. This is because in working together the work gets more attention and recognition.
2). It makes the work to be done reduced. Considering the fact that people will handle different aspects of the research, the work per person will be less.
3). There will be variety of techniques. Having people work on same research enhances the research as different techniques are bound to be used to achieve result.
4). It gives room for more creativity. Because of the increased number of people working on the same tasks, diverse ideas will be brought forward, there will be knowledge sharing and this in turn will improve the creativity.

Suppose the U.S. economy is initially at long run equilibrium, when there is an unexpected large increase in the price of steel used by firms in production. How does this impact the U.S. economy? (write out either "inflationary" or "recessionary" In response to this what monetary policy would the Fed employ? (write one of the following: "raise taxes", "lower taxes", "raise money supply", or "lower money supply" What is the most likely way the Fed will accomplish this change in the monetary policy? (write one of the following: "buy securities", "sell securities", "raise discount rate", "lower discount rate", or "legislation" This action by the Fed will cause interest rates to _______. (Write out "increase" or "decrease" The end result of the monetary policy is a shift of which curve in which direction. (Write out one of the following: "AD right", "AD left" "AS left", "AS right"
Answer:
The price hike in the price of steel would cause an inflationary push in the U.S. economy, because steel is a input to the production processes of many firms.
In this scenario, the fed would lower the money supply in order to stop the inflationary push from continuing. To do so, the fed would sell government securities.
On the grant date, January 1st, 2015, the stock was quoted on the stock exchange at $63 per share. The fair value of the options on the grant date was estimated at $15 per option. The amounts of compensation expense ABC should recognize with respect to the options during 2015, 2016, and 2017 are:
Answer:
2015 $31,500
2016 $31,500
2017 $31,500
Explanation:
Number of Options in total × Fair Value of the Stock per option
Where
Number of Options in total = 63
Fair Value of the Stock per option =15
Hence:
(63*100) ×$15
=$6,300 ×$15
= $ 94,500
Compensation expense will be:
2015, 2016, and 2017 will give us 3 years
= $94,500/3
= $31,500 for 2015, 2016, and 2017
Fair value of the options is said to be evaluated on grant date and expenditure is been recognised in 3 years because the employee will be working for 3 years which is from year 2015 to 2017
James is the landlord of an apartment containing 22 houses which are to be maintained by him and Lily is one of the tenants. In which of the following cases would the tenant be liable for an injury occurring on the leased premises?A) James was negligent in repairing the broken step on which Lily tripped and broke her ankle.B) Lily's nephew cut his finger with the knife that was negligently kept in Lily's kitchen.C) A little child at the apartment almost choked himself by consuming the paint that was chipping off the common wall between Lily's apartment and her neighbor's.D) The entire apartment caught fire and the fire extinguisher could not be used since it was installed only in Lily's rented house and she was out shopping.E) Lily's visitor got into the common lift in the apartment that suddenly crashed leading to severe injuries to Lily's visi
Answer: B) Lily's nephew cut his finger with the knife that was negligently kept in Lily's kitchen.
Explanation:
James as the landlord will be responsible for the structural or other defects of the house so long as it is the house that is the problem.
Activities that go on inside a tenants house that are caused by the actions of the tenants will not be a liability on the path of the landlord.
If an elevator is damaged or there weren't enough fire extinguishers or there was a broken step or poor quality paint was used, these are all defects related to the house itself and as such will result in negligence on the part of the landlord.
A child getting injured by a knife that Lily as a tenant left, in her apartment will.be the fault of Lily and the negligence can only be on her because it was due to actions by her as a tenant in her leased property.

Answer: It attempts to determine the retail price by using production costs as a base.
Explanation:
The Per-unit expenditure approach to advertising sets the retail price based on the production cost. This means that the amount to be set for advertising is based on a fixed amount that is determined by how many units of a good the company expects to sell so that the advertising is based on how much it spent in production.
Metallica Bearings, Inc., is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next 11 years because the firm needs to plow back its earnings to fuel growth. The company will then pay a dividend of $13.75 per share 12 years from today and will increase the dividend by 5.5 percent per year thereafter. If the required return on this stock is 13.5 percent, what is the current share price
Answer:
$42.69
Explanation:
From the question above Metallica Bearings Inc. is expected to pay a dividend of $13.75 pet share for a period of 12 years
The dividend will increase by 5.5 percent per year
= 5.5/100
= 0.055
The required rate of return is 13.5 percent
= 13.5/100
= 0.135
The first step is to calculate the price at 11 years
Price at 11 years= 13.75/ 0.135-0.055
= 13.75/0.08
= $171.87
The next step in to find the current price by applying the following formular
Current share price= Future value/ (1+r)^n
= $171.875/ (1+0.135)^11
= $171.87/ 1.135^11
= $171.87/ 4.026
= $42.69
Current share price= $42.69
Hence the current share price is $42.69
Valuable Incorporated's stock currently sells for $45 per share. The firm has 20 million share of common outstanding. The firm's total debt equals $600 million and its common equity equals $400 million. What is the firm's market value added
Answer:
The firm's market value added is $500,000,000
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
Stock market price per share= $ 45
No of shares= 20,000,000
Therefore, Market value of equity = MPS * no of shares
$45*20,000,000= $ 900,000,000
Invested capital or common equity = $400,000,000
Therefore, in order to calculate the firm's market value added we would have to make the following calculation:
Market value added = Market value of stock - invested capital
Market value added =$900,000,000 -$400,000,000
Market value added =$500,000,000
The firm's market value added is $500,000,000

Item8 Part 5 of 5 10 points Return to questionItem 8Item 8 Part 5 of 5 10 points Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] In 2021, the Westgate Construction Company entered into a contract to construct a road for Santa Clara County for $10,000,000. The road was completed in 2023. Information related to the contract is as follows: 2021 2022 2023 Cost incurred during the year $ 2,542,000 $ 3,772,000 $ 2,074,600 Estimated costs to complete as of year-end 5,658,000 1,886,000 0 Billings during the year 2,020,000 4,294,000 3,686,000 Cash collections during the year 1,810,000 3,800,000 4,390,000 Westgate recognizes revenue over time according to percentage of completion. 5. Calculate the amount of revenue and gross profit (loss) to be recognized in each of the three years assuming the following costs incurred and costs to complete information. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount. Loss amounts should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of amount of revenue and gross profit (loss) to be recognized in each of the three years is shown below:-
Sales revenue for the present period for 2021 = $31,00,000.00
Sales revenue for the present period for 2022 = $46,00,000.00
Sales revenue for the present period for 2023 = $23,00,000.00
Gross Profit for year 2021 = $5,58,000.00
Gross profit for year 2022 = $8,28,000.00
Gross profit for year 2023 = $2,25,400.00
To reach the sales revenue we simply deduct the Sales revenue recognized in previous period from Sales revenue recognized till date for 3 years on the other hand to compute the gross profit we simply deduct the Cost incurred during the year from Sales revenue for the present period for 3 years.
For clarification we attached the spreadsheet to reach the sales revenue and gross profit for 3 years.
Larry Company makes and sells 2 models of dishwashers, Model ABC and Model XYZ. For every 2 Model ABC sold, 3 Model XYZ are sold. The following information is also provided: Model ABC Model XYZ Sales per unit $ 490 $ 730 Variable Cost per unit $250 $300 CM per unit $ 240 $ 430 What is the weighted average contribution margin?
Answer:
$354
Explanation:
The computation of the weighted average contribution margin is shown below:
= (Contribution margin per unit for Model ABC × Sales mix for model ABC) + (Contribution margin per unit for Model XYZ × Sales mix for model XYZ) ÷ (Sales mix for model ABC + Sales mix for model XYZ)
= ($240 × 2 models + $430 × 3 models) ÷ (2 models + 3 models)
= ($480 + $1,290) ÷ (5 models)
= $354
We simply applied the above formula
