Answer:
The answer is $4,221.77
Explanation:
Present value = Cash flow/(1+r)^n
where n is the number of years
Cash flow 1:
$1,150/1.11^1
=$1,036
Cash flow 2:
$1,030/1.11^2
=$835.97
Cash flow 3:
$1,520/1.11^3
=$1,111.41
Cash flow 4::
$1,880/1.11^4
=$1,238.39
Present Value of all the cash flows is
$1,036 + $835.97 + $1,111.41 + $1,238.39
=$4,221.77
A firm is about to undertake the manufacture of a product, and is weighing the process configuration options. There are two intermittent processes under consideration, as well as a repetitive focus. The smaller intermittent process has fixed costs of $3,000 per month, and variable costs of $10 per unit. The larger intermittent process has fixed costs of $12,000 and variable costs of $2 per unit. A repetitive focus plant has fixed costs of $50,000 and variable costs of $1 per unit.a. At what output does the large intermittent process become cheaper than the small one?b. At what output does the repetitive process become cheaper than the larger intermittent process?
Answer:
A.$1,125
B.$38,000
Explanation:
Using this formula:
Fixed Cost of Process B- Fixed Cost of Process A ÷Unit Variable cost of Process A – Unit Variable Cost of Process B
a.
Where:
Fixed Cost =$12,000
Fixed Cost =$3,000
Unit Variable =10
Unit Variable =2
Hence:
(12,000-3,000)/ (10-2)
=$9,000/8
= $1,125
This means that large intermittent process become cheaper than the small one by $1,125
b.
Fixed Cost =$50,000
Fixed Cost =$12,000
Unit Variable =2
Unit Variable =1
(50,000-12,000)/ (2-1)
=$38,000/1
= 38,000
This means that repetitive process become cheaper than the larger intermittent process by $38,000

1. Which of the following is an example of the resource-based view of the firm? a. Philip Morris diversified by purchasing Kraft foods, because they did not want to put money back in the high-risk cigarette business. b. Google hires employees by asking them to fill out a 200-item questionnaire; many of the questions have nothing to do with computers. c. Halliburton takes advantage of the US war budget to bill the government at over $5 per gallon of gasoline. d. Canon manufactures scanners, printers, copiers and cameras, all using its capability in imaging.
Answer:
An example of the resource-based view of the firm is:
d. Canon manufactures scanners, printers, copiers and cameras, all using its capability in imaging.
Explanation:
The resource-based view is a model or framework for examining the potentials an organization possesses to develop a competitive advantage over other competitors. By applying this model, management sees resources as key to superior firm performance. It therefore focuses its attention on internal resources in an effort to identify those assets, capabilities, and competencies with the potential to deliver superior competitive advantages.
The other approaches mentioned do not consider the firm's internal capabilities as a means of competitive advantage.
Suppose that the government spending multiplier is 3.2 and the tax multiplier is 2.9. This means that, if prices are constant, a $200 billion rise in government spending will __________________, and a $200 billion cut in taxes will _____________________.
Answer:
At constant prices, a $200 billion rise in government spending will increase Real GDP by 640 billion
and;
A $200 billion cut in taxes will increase real GDP by 580 billion
Explanation:
Government spending multiplier = 3.2
Tax multiplier = 2.9
Mathematically;
ΔY/ΔG = 3.2
ΔY/200 = 3.2
ΔY = 200 * 3.2
ΔY = 640 billion
Cut in taxes;
Tax multiplier = 2.9
ΔY/ΔT = 2.9
ΔY/200 = 2.9
ΔY = 2.9 * 200
ΔY = 580 billion
The board of directors of Capstone Inc. declared a $0.80 per share cash dividend on its $1 par common stock. On the date of declaration, there were 48,000 shares authorized, 16,000 shares issued, and 5,000 shares held as treasury stock. What is the entry when the dividends are declared
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry when the dividend is declared is shown below:
Cash Dividend A/c Dr $8,800 {(16,000 shares - 5,000 shares) × $0.80}

(Being the dividend is declared)
for recording this we debited the cash dividend as it increased the balance of dividend and credited the dividend payable as it also increased the liabilities
According to the Marketing Concept, a. Companies produce only what customers want. b. A company should produce only basic products. c. Managements primary task is to convince buyers to purchase what we produce. d. Management’s most important task is to keep production costs low. e. ALL OF THE ABOVE. f. NONE OF THE ABOVE
Answer:
The answer is A
Explanation:
Companies should produce what customers want based on the marketing concept. Companies and customers are dependent on each other. Companies should focus on producing goods which consumers/customers want. These companies should think of what consumers want and the prices they would pay since it is the consumer that creates demand for goods and services that are produced by the company.
Therefore companies should produce only what consumers want else they would produce goods and services with little demand.
Common stocks typically have which of the following that bonds do NOT have?
I. Voting rights
II. Fixed cash flows
III. Set maturity date
IV. Tax deductibility of cash flows to investors
a) i only
b) i,ii and iv only
c) ii,iii and iv only
d) iv only
e) i, ii,iii and iv
Answer:
The correct option is A, i only
Explanation:
The voting right attached to common stock means that common stockholders being the original owners of the company have the right to attend the company annual general meetings and vote on issues concerning the efficient running of the company as well as election of board of directors.
Fixed cash flows of annual or semiannual coupon interest, set maturity date including the tax deductibility of cash flows to investors are all features of bonds.
Uniform Supply accepted a $8,800, 90-day, 9% note from Tracy Janitorial on October 17. What entry should Uniform Supply make on January 15 of the next year when the note is paid? (Assume reversing entries are not made.). (Use 360 days a year.)
Answer:
Dr cash($8800+$33+$165) $8,998
Cr notes receivable $8,800
Cr interest revenue $33
Cr interest receivable $165
Explanation:
As at January 15 when the note is received ,there is need to recognize interest revenue for 15 days of January i.e 15/360*9%*$8800=$33
From October 17 to December 31 ,interest receivable amount already recognized as revenue=75/360*9%*$8800=$165
The actual of amount of notes receivable is the original amount of $8,800
Changes in reserve requirements to conduct monetary policy is generally not a good idea for the United States because:
A)it requires approval of Congress and this can take too long.
B)it takes a long time to work whereas other tools are much quicker.
C)this tool is powerful and makes it difficult for bank managers to plan for the future and manage funds as they like.
D)the United States is too large of a country to use this tool.
Answer: this tool is powerful and makes it difficult for bank managers to plan for the future and manage funds as they like.
Explanation:
Reserve requirements are the amount of money that a bank holds in its reserve to ensure that it can meet liabilities in the case of sudden withdrawals. The reserve requirement is a tool that is used by the central bank of a country to either increase or decrease the money supply in the economy and also influence interest rates.
The changes in reserve requirements to conduct monetary policy is not a good idea for the United States because it is a powerful tool which makes it hard for bank managers to make future plans and manage funds as they want. In a situation whereby small variation in the reserve ratio brings about huge changes in an economy, the changes are positive and okay but in a situation whereby they bring about negative effect, it will be hard to face such scenarios.
Bob's lawn-mowing service is a profit-maximizing, competitive firm. Bob mows lawns for $30 each. His total cost each day is $320, of which $70 is a fixed cost. He mows 10 lawns a day. In the short run, Bob should____________ . In the long run, Bob should__________ the industry.
Answer:
In the short run, as long as the contribution margin is positive he should continue in the industry. In the long run, if the company keeps losing money, he should leave the industry.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Bob mows lawns for $30 each. His total cost each day is $320, of which $70 is a fixed cost. He mows 10 lawns a day.
First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:
Total variable cost= 320 - 70= 250
Unitary varaible cost= 250/10= $25
Contribution margin= 30 - 25= $5
In the short run, as long as the contribution margin is positive he should continue in the industry. In the long run, if the company keeps losing money, he should leave the industry.

Shulman Inc. has the following data, in thousands. Assuming a 365-day year, what is the firm's cash conversion cycle? Annual sales = $45,000 Annual cost of goods sold = $30,000 Inventory = $4,500 Accounts receivable = $1,800 Accounts payable = $2,500
Answer:
38.93
Explanation:
Firm Cash Conversion Cycle = Inventory Conversion Period + Average Collection Period - Payable Deferral Period
Inventory Conversion Period = 365 * Inventory / Annual cost of goods sold
365 days * 4500 / 30000 = 54.75
Average Collection Period = 365 days * Account receivable / sales
= 365 * 1800 / 45000 = 14.60
Payable Deferral Period = 365 days * Account payable / sales = 365 * 2500 / 30000 = 30.42
Hence, Firm Cash Conversion Cycle = 54.75 + 14.60 - 30.42 = 38.93
The firm Cash Conversion Cycle is 38.93
Suppose that a 1-year zero-coupon bond with face value $100 currently sells at $90.37, while a 2-year zero sells at $77.15. You are considering the purchase of a 2-year-maturity bond making annual coupon payments. The face value of the bond is $100, and the coupon rate is 9% per year. a. What is the yield to maturity of the 2-year zero?(Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
Answer:
The yield to maturity on the 2 year-zero coupon bond is 13.85% as computed in the explanation section below
Explanation:
The yield to maturity on the 2-year-zero coupon bond can be computed using the rate formula in excel as shown thus:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of annual coupon payments which is 2
pmt is the amount of annual coupon payment which is zero since it is a zero coupon bond
pv is the current price of the bond which is $77.15
fv is the face value of the bond which is $100
=rate(2,0,-77.15,100)=13.85%

On July 1, Year 1, Danzer Industries Inc. issued $40,000,000 of 10-year, 7% bonds at a market (effective) interest rate of 8%, receiving cash of $37,282,062. Interest on the bonds is payable semiannually on December 31 and June 30. The fiscal year of the company is the calendar year.
Required:1. Journalize the entry to record the amount of cash proceeds from the issuance of the bonds on July 1, Year 1.2. Journalize the entries to record the following:*A. The first semiannual interest payment on December 31, Year 1, and the amortization of the bond discount, using the straight-line method.
B. The interest payment on June 30, Year 2, and the amortization of the bond discount, using the straight-line method.
3. Determine the total interest expense for Year 1.4. Will the bond proceeds always be less than the face amount of the bonds when the contract rate is less than the market rate of interest?5. Compute the price of $37,282,062 received for the bonds by using the present value tables

B. The interest payment on June 30, Year 2, and the amortization of the bond discount, using the straight-line method.
Dr Interest expense 1,535,897
Cr Cash 1,400,000
Cr Discount on bonds payable 135,897
3. Determine the total interest expense for Year 1.
Interest expense 1,535,897
4. Will the bond proceeds always be less than the face amount of the bonds when the contract rate is less than the market rate of interest?
Yes, when the bond's interest rate is lower than the market rate, the bonds will be sold at a discount (less than face value). The market rate applicable to this bond issuance is the one used for similar bonds, so the market rate can change depending on the bond.
5. Compute the price of $37,282,062 received for the bonds by using the present value tables
the value of the bonds = PV of face value + PV of coupons
PV of face value = $40,000,000 / (1 + 4%)²⁰ = $18,255,478PV of annuity = $1,400,000 x PV annuity 4% for 20 periods = $1,400,000 x 13.59033 = $19,026,462total value = $18,255,478 + $19,026,462 = $37,281,940
There is a small difference, $122, due to rounding errors from the annuity table. But the error is not significant, it represents only 0.0003% of the bonds' price.

issued $40,000,000 of 10-year, 7% bonds at a market (effective) interest rate of 8%, receiving cash of $37,282,062
coupon payment = $40,000,000 x 7% x 1/2 = $1,400,000
semiannual coupon paid December 31 and June 30
Discount on bonds payable $2,717,938 / 20 coupons = $135,896.90 ≈ $135,897 per coupon payment
A firm buys on terms of 3/15, net 45. It does not take the discount, and it generally pays after 85 days. What is the nominal annual percentage cost of its non-free trade credit, based on a 365-day year? The firm's APR of not taking the trade credit is ____. (If you use percent, then do not use the percent sign. Go two places to the right of the decimal point (XX.XX). If you use decimal places, then go four places to the right of the decimal place. 0.XXXX). 0.1613
Answer:
What is the nominal annual percentage cost of its non-free trade credit, based on a 365-day year? The firm's APR of not taking the trade credit is 0.1613.
Explanation:
The nominal cost of its non-free trade credit = the discounts lost for paying late.
In this case, the seller offers a 3% discount if the firm pays within 15 days.
annual financial cost = [discount / (100% - discount)] x [365 / (repayment time - discount period)]
annual financial cost = [3% / (100% - 3%)] x [365 / (85 - 15)] = (3% / 97%) x (365 / 70) = 0.1613 or 16.13%
"Cincinnati Supply, Co. is a local supplier to the Kraft Heinz Company, which is the third-largest food and beverage company in North America and the fifth-largest food and beverage company in the world. Cincinnati Supply, Co. purchased new furniture at a cost of $33,000 on January 1. The furniture is estimated to have a useful life of 6 years and a $3,000 salvage value. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. What is the amount of depreciation expense reported on December 31
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $5,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchasing price= $33,000
Salvage value= $3,000
Useful life= 6 years
To calculate the depreciation expense under the straight-line method, we need to use the following formula:
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (33,000 - 3,000)/6
Annual depreciation= $5,000
The RST Company makes 38,000 parts to be used in its main products. The cost per part at this activity level is:
Direct materials
$
6.50
Direct labor
$
6.60
Variable manufacturing overhead
$
3.75
Fixed manufacturing overhead
$
3.45
An outside supplier offered to supply RST Company this part at $18 per unit. If RST Company decides not to make the parts, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost could be avoided. Direct labor is a variable cost. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of buying these parts from the outside supplier rather than making them internally would be:
($186,200)
($87,400)
($43,700)
$87,400
Answer:
($43,700)
Explanation:
38,000 units produced:
Direct materials $ 6.50 Direct labor $6.60 Variable manufacturing overhead $3.75 Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.45total cost per unit = $20.30outside supplier offers parts at $18 per unit
fixed manufacturing overhead is unavoidable

g The model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply explains the relationship between a. the price and quantity of a particular good. b. unemployment and output. c. wages and employment. d. real GDP and the price level.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option D: real GDP and the price level.
Explanation:
To begin with, the "model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply" is the name given to an economy model created by John Keynes many years ago and whose main purpose is to show in a graphic the existing relationship established by Keynes between the price level and the production level. Therefore that, as it is known, the GDP comprehends the production level in this model and it is used in order to try to predict the possible effects that some external factors may have in both the real GDP and the price level.
Answer:
The correct answer is (A)
Explanation:
The model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply explains the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity of same good.
What do we mean by quantity? Quantity here could be quantity demanded or quantity supplied.
The model of Aggregate Demand explains how price of a good affects the general or aggregate demand for that goods and how demand in turn affects price. The law of demand states that, all other things being equal, the higher the price of a good, the lower the quantity demanded of that good and vice versa.
The model of Aggregate Supply explains how the price of a good affects the quantity supplied and the law of supply states that if there's an increase in the price of a good, producers will be encouraged to supply more and vice versa; ceteris paribus!
For the other options, there are macro theories or models that explain them.
In March of 2019, Thomas makes a $5,000 cash contribution to a public university. In that month, he also donates $20,000 to an organization subject to the 30 percent limitation. Thomas has adjusted gross income for 2019 of $30,000. What is the amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction?
Answer:
The amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction is $14,000
Explanation:
In order to calculate the amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction we would have to calculate the following:
amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction =Cash contribution + [30% of adjusted gross income or actual property ,whichever is lower]
amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction = $5,000+ [(30%* $30,000) or $20,000 ,whichever is lower]
amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction =$5,000 [ $9,000 or $20,000]
amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction= $5,000 + $9,000
amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction= $14,000
Managers can use CSR and sustainability information as important feedback to guide decision making in a variety of areas. Which of the following areas is least likely to be impacted by this feedback?
a. cost control decisions
b. FASB compliance with U.S. GAAP
c. strategic and operational areas
d. resource allocation decisions
Answer:
Option B. FASB compliance with U.S. GAAP
Explanation:
Because FASB is an independent body and publishes amendmends in Accounting standards which are internationally accepted so it has nothing to do with the US GAAP. Our decision making impact can be seen on the matters that are dependent on us not on the things we don't have control of or if they independent body. So the least impacted would be FASB compliance with US GAAP.
Whereas the rest of options are controlled by the managers so they can be easily influenced by the decision making power of the managers.
On January 1, Year 1, the Accounts Receivable balance was $21,000 and the balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts was $1,900. On January 15, Year 1, an $530 uncollectible account was written-off. What is the net realizable value of accounts receivable immediately after the write-off
Answer:
$19,100
Explanation:
Accounts receivable represents amount owed to a business by its customers for products or services offered. It is payable in the future.
When collection is uncertain the amount is put in doubtful account.
If an amount is confirmed to be uncollectible it is written off as a loss
In this scenario we are calculating realisable value after write-off
Account receivable after write-off = Account receivable balance - Uncollectible amount
Account receivable after write-off= 21,000 - 530= $20,470
Allowance balance after write-off= Doubtful account - Uncollectible account
Allowance balance after write-off= 1,900 - 530 = $1,370
Net realisable value after write-off= 20,470 - 1,370= $19,100
Suppose that the world price of oil is $70 per barrel and that the United States can buy all the oil it wants at this price. Suppose also that the demand and supply schedules for oil in the United States are as follows:Price ($ Per Barrel) U.S. Quantity Demanded) U.S. Quantity Supplied68 16 470 15 672 14 874 13 1076 12 12a) Draw the supply and demand curve for the United Statesb) With free trade in oil, what price will Americans pay for their oil? What quantity will Americans buy? How much of this will be supplied by American producers? How much will be imported?
Answer:
The supply and demand curves for the United States are shown in the graphs attached.
Explanation:
Free trade in oil implies that a country in the international oil market can import as much oil as it wants and export as much oil as it wants.
The costs of demand and the revenues obtained in each case are given below:
QD1 cost = 68 × 70 = $4,760
QS1 revenue = 16 × 70 = $1,120
QD2 cost = 470 × 70 = $32,900
QS2 revenue = 15 × 70 = $1,050
QD3 cost = 672 × 70 = $47,040
QS3 revenue = 14 × 70 = $980
QD4 cost = 874 × 70 = $61,180
QS4 revenue = 13 × 70 = $910
QD5 cost = 1076 × 70 = $75,320
QS5 revenue = 12 × 70 = $840

At the end of 2001, Lehnhoff Inc. had $75 million in cash on its balance sheet. During 2002, the following events occurred: The cash flow from Lehnhoff's operating activities totaled $325 million. Lehnhoff issued $500 million in common stock. Lehnhoff's notes payable decreased by $100 million. Lehnhoff purchased fixed assets totaling $600 million. How much cash did Lehnhoff Inc. have on its balance sheet at the end of 2002
Answer:
The multiple choices are:
a. $200 Million
b. $50 Million
c. $1.4 Billion
d. $100 Million
The correct option is A,$200 million
Explanation:
The increase in cash recorded from the statement of cash flows prepared in the year plus the opening balance of cash at the beginning of the year gives the cash balance at the end of the year shown below:
Increase in cash in the year=cash flow from operations+cash flow from financing activities-cash flow used on investing activities
increase in cash in the year=$325+($500-$100)-$600=$125 million
cash at the end of the year=$125 +$75=$200 million
