Answer:
The opportunity cost is $130,000 for the four year duration.
Explanation:
Here, it is clear that I will not go to the job, so going to university is the only option left. Now, the loss of the job income is also an opportunity cost with an amount $20,000 which will aggregated with the University specific costs.
University Specific cost for 4 Years = 4 * (Tuition Cost + Textbooks + Job Opportunity loss)
The room and board cost is common between college and the university so it must not be considered for the decision making.
By putting values, we have:
University Specific cost for 4 Years = 4 * ($10,000 + $2,500 + $20,000)
University Specific cost for 4 Years = $130,000 for the four years
The opportunity cost is $130,000 for the four year duration.
For better understanding of relevant costing (Opportunity cost analysis), consider the following question:

Federal Semiconductors issued 11% bonds, dated January 1, with a face amount of $800 million on January 1, 2021. The bonds sold for $739,814,813 and mature on December 31, 2040 (20 years). For bonds of similar risk and maturity the market yield was 12%. Interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Federal determines interest at the effective rate. Federal elected the option to report these bonds at their fair value. On December 31, 2021, the fair value of the bonds was $730 million as determined by their market value in the over-the-counter market. Assume the fair value of the bonds on December 31, 2022 had risen to $736 million.
Required:
1. Prepare the journal entry to record their issuance by Federal on January 1, 2021.
2. Prepare the journal entry to record interest on June 30, 2021 (at the effective rate).
3. Prepare the journal entry to record interest on December 31, 2021 (at the effective rate).
4. At what amount will Federal report the bonds among its liabilities in the December 31, 2021, balance sheet?
Answer:
1. Prepare the journal entry to record their issuance by Federal on January 1, 2021.

(To record payment of semi-annual interest)
4. The amount that Federal will report for the bonds among its liabilities in the December 31, 2021, balance sheet is $740,615,924
Explanation:
1. Discount on bonds payable = $800 million - $739,814,813 = $60,185,187
2. Cash paid = Face value × stated interest × interest time period
= $800,000,000 × 11% × 0.5
= $44,000,000
Interest expense = price of bonds × market interest rate × interest time period
= $739,814,813 × 12% × 0.5
= $44,388,889
Discount on bonds payable = $44,388,889 - $44,000,000 = $388,889
3. Cash paid = Face value × stated interest × interest time period
= $800,000,000 × 11% × 0.5
= $44,000,000
Interest expense = price of bonds × market interest rate × interest time period
= ($739,814,813 + $388,889) × 12% × 0.5
= $ 44,412,222
Discount on bonds payable = $44,412,222 - $44,000,000 = $412,222
4. Long term liabilities = Bonds payable + Discount on bonds payable June 30 + Discount on bonds payable December 31
= $739,814,813 + $388,889 + $412,222
= $740,615,924
Write a linear cost function equation for each of the following conditions. Use y for estimated costs and X for activity of the cost driver.
a. Direct manufacturing labor is $10 per hour.
b. Direct materials cost $15.60 per cubic yard.
c. Utilities have a minimum charge of $5,000, plus a charge of $0.30 per kilowatt-hour.
d. Machine operating costs include $300,000 of machine depreciation per year, plus $100 of utility costs for each day the machinery is in operation.
Answer:
a)
y = $10x
b)
y = $15.6x
c)
y = $5000 + $0.3x
d)
y = $300000 + $100x
Explanation:
y for estimated costs and X for activity of the cost driver. Linear cost function is given as:
y = a + bx.
Where y is the cost being predicted, x is the cost driver, a is the fixed cost (intercept) and b is the variable cost per unit (slope)
a) Since Direct manufacturing labor is $10 per hour, variable cost (b) = Direct manufacturing labor = $10
Therefore:
y = $10x
b) variable cost (b) = Direct materials cost = $15.60 per cubic yard.
Therefore:
y = $15.6x
c) Fixed cost (a) = utilities = $5000 and variable cost (b) = charges = $0.3 per kilowatt-hour. Therefore:
y = $5000 + $0.3x
d) Fixed cost (a) = Machine operating costs = $300000 and variable cost (b) = utility costs = $100 per day. Therefore:
y = $300000 + $100x
A manufacturing firm is considering two locations for a plant to produce a new product. The two locations have fixed and variable costs as follows: Location FC (annual) VC (per unit) Atlanta $ 80,000 $ 20 Phoenix $ 140,000 $ 16 If the annual demand will be 20,000 units, what would be the cost advantage of the better location? HINT: Compare the total costs Select one: a. 40000 b. 20000 c. 460000 d. 60000
Answer:
Cost Advantage of different locations:
b. $20,000
Phoenix certainly had a cost advantage over Atlanta and based on this factor, it should be chosen for the new plant instead of any other city.
Explanation:
a) Total Costs of different locations:
Atlanta Phoenix
Fixed Cost $80,000 $140,000
Variable cost 400,000 320,000
Total Costs $480,000 $460,000
b) Variable costs
Atlanta Phoenix
Annual Demand 20,000 20,000
Variable cost/unit $20 $16
Total variable cost $400,000 $320,000
c) Cost Advantage is the competitive edge which location (or company) can have over another through reduced production or marketing costs or both so that it can offer cheaper prices or use excess profits to bolster promotion or distribution. In this case, the comparison is on the total cost, which is made of variable and fixed costs.
"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
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
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.

The sum total of a company’s financial, organizational, physical and human resources. d. All of the above.
Answer:
A coordinated deployment of a firm’s resources to achieve competitive advantage.
Explanation:
The term strategy can be defined as a coordinated deployment of a firm’s resources to achieve competitive advantage. It is a long-term plan of action that is focused on using a firm's available resources to achieve set objectives and goals, which includes dominating the market, meeting customer's demands, expanding the business, etc.
The executive management team ensures that their business strategy is in tandem with the aim, objectives vision and mission. A good business strategy is a continuous process that should function as a roadmap or guide to achieve competitive advantage, sustained profitability, growth and development of an organization.
A business strategy can be classified into various categories, such as product strategy, marketing strategy, growth strategy etc.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
A coordinated deployment of a firm’s resources to achieve competitive advantage. (b)
Explanation:
The goal of every business is to maximize profit, hence, business strategy is paramount in achieving this, and it is a combination of all the decisions taken, and actions implemented to achieve business goals and to gain a competitive advantage in the market. From this definition, it is therefore noted that business strategies are effectively drawn up at the beginning of the business year, because it is like a roadmap for the business, and implemented throughout the period, although, it can also change depending on the condition of the business environment. Note also that business strategy is different from the business plan, while business plans sets the goals of the business, business strategy states how to achieve these goals.

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:

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%
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
The following data apply to Elizabeth's Electrical Equipment: Value of operations $20,000 Short-term investments $1,000 Debt $6,000 Number of shares 300 The company plans on distributing $1,000 by repurchasing stock. What will the intrinsic per share stock price be immediately after the repurchase? Notes: With some combinations of variables, the residual policy may result in zero dividends and a zero payout ratio. These outcomes are noted in the topic [TOP] field if applicable.
Answer:
$50
Explanation:
Elizabeth's Electrical Equipment
Total Assets will be :
Value of operations of 20,000+ Short term investments of 1000
=$21,000
Debt = $6000
Hence:
Equity will be :
Assets - Debt
= $21,000-$6,000
Which will give us = $15,000
Number of shares which are outstanding
= 300
$15,000/300
=$50
Therefore the Intrinsic value per share will be $50 immediately after the repurchase has occured.
The 6.3 percent, semi-annual coupon bonds of PE Engineers mature in 13 years and have a price quote of 99.2. These bonds have a current yield of ________ percent, a yield to maturity of ________ percent, and an effective annual yield of ________ percent.
Answer:
Current yield is 6.35%
YTM is 6.40%
Effective annual yield is 6.50%
Explanation:
Current yield =coupon amount/price=6.3%*$1000/$1000*99.2%=6.35%
Yield to maturity can be computed using excel rate formula as below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of coupon payments of the bond which is 13*2
pmt is the annual coupon=6.3%*$1000=$63/2=$31.5
pv is the current price=99.2%*$1000=$992
fv is the face value of $1000
=rate(13*2,31.5,-992,1000)=3.20%
Semiannual yield =3.20%
annual yield=3.20%*2=6.40%
effective annual yield=(1+YTM/2)^2-1
effective annual yield=(1+6.40%/2)^2-1=6.50%

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.

Total Expenses $91,000
Net Income $44,000
Explanation:
In calculating the net income for the year, only revenue and expenses (income statement) items are taken into account. They are also called temporary or period accounts which are closed to the income statement for the period, because they are not permanent accounts. Permanent accounts are taken to the balance sheet and carried over to the next accounting period.
"A long time customer has purchased securities in a margin account and is experiencing a temporary cash shortfall. The customer tells the registered representative that he cannot pay on settlement; and the registered representative offers to lend the customer the necessary funds. This action is:"
Answer: Prohibited.
Explanation:
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) frowns upon the action described above.
FINRA strongly prohibits the personal borrowing of money by the representative to a customer or vice versa. The only time this prohibition can be waved is if the parties are married or family.
Seeing as there was no mention of the parties being family, this action is prohibited.
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.
You’ve borrowed $23,072 on margin to buy shares in Ixnay, which is now selling at $41.2 per share. You invest 1,120 shares. Your account starts at the initial margin requirement of 50%. The maintenance margin is 35%. Two days later, the stock price changes to $41 per share.
a) Will you receive a margin call?b) How low can the price of Disney shares fall before you receive a margin call?
Answer:
(a) Since the percentage margin is more than maintenance margin, there would be no call
(b) A margin call would be received when the price is $15.26
Explanation:
(a) Total investment = $23,072 × [tex]\frac{100}{50}[/tex] = $46,144
Total shares = Total investment ÷ share price
= $46,144 ÷ $41.2 = 1,120
Value of share in market = new price × number of shares
= $41 × 1,120
= $45,920
Value of equity = Value of share in the market - borrowed cash
= $45,920 - $23,072
= $22,848
Percentage margin = Value of equity ÷ Value of shares
= ($22,848 ÷ $45,920) × 100%
= 49.76%
(b) Total number of shares = 1,120
Assumed value of shares = $1,120X
Borrowed fund = $23,072
Value of equity = $1,120X - $23,072
Margin = Value of equity ÷ Value of shares
0.35 = ($1,120X - $23,072) ÷ $1,120X
392X = $1,120X - $23,072
1512X = $23,072
X = $15.26
g A stock will issue a dividend of $20 one year from today. Dividends will shrink by 3% per year for the next two years after that, and then remain constant forever. Find the current price of one share of this stock, given an effective annual rate of 6%.
Answer:
Current price = $341.943
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the worth of an asset is the sum of the present values of its future cash flows discounted at the required rate of return.
PV dividend in year 1 = 20 × 1.03^(-1)= 19.41747573
PV of dividend in year 2 = 97%× 20 × 1,03^(-2)= 18.28636064
PV of dividend in year 3 = 97%× 97%× 20× 1.03^(-3) = 17.22113575
PV of dividend from year 4 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
PV (in year 3 terms
(97%× 97%× 20× 1.03^(-3))/0.06 =313.6333333
PV in year o terms
PV = A/r
A= 313.63, r = 6%
313.63× 1.03^(-3)= 287.0189291
Price of stock = 19.41 +18.28 + 17.221 + 17.221= 341.943
Current price = $341.943
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.
