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.

Explanation:
1) Corporation management means that experts can be hired as managers. On the other hand, the managers may not act in the best interest of the owners, even though, they are legally required to do so.
2) Limited liability of stockholders, government regulations, and additional taxes are the major disadvantages of a corporation. Limited liability of stockholders may be a disadvantage to non-stockholders, but it is an advantage for stockholders, who will not be required to contribute more money to offset liabilities of the corporation in the event of liquidation. Since corporations are distinct persons in law, they also need to be regulated and taxed as separate persons. So, this is not a disadvantage. It is only a consequence of being separate entity, like all individuals.
3) Organization costs include legal payments, state and federal registration, and incorporation fees, promotions, and charges associated with the underwriting of stocks and bonds. Organization costs can be classified as assets on the company's balance sheet.
4) A share in a company's stock accords some rights on the holder as itemized above.
5) The number of issued shares may be equal to or less than the authorized shares. Some companies do not issue all the shares that they are authorized to issue at the same time.
6) Authorization of capital stock does not require a journal entry. A memorandum record of the authorization is instead maintained to show the number of authorized capital shares and the par value.
7) There is no question 7.
8) Initial public offerings are made directly to investors. The stock exchange market caters for the exchange of shares among investors. The company is not involved and does not take any financial record, except the register of shareholders.
9) The market price of shares may be more or less than the par value. The market price is determined by investors, who exchange shares at arm's length in the stock exchange market. The par value is determined by those authorizing the issue of shares.
10) Retained Earnings are the income generated by the corporation which have not been distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends.
Find the mean, median and mode for the above set of data
Answer:
a. Mean = 35.2 ≈ 35
b. Median = 35.6 ≈ 36
c. Mode = 36.6 ≈ 37
Step-by-step Explanation:
==>Given:
Class of ages in yrs
No. of cases of each class = f
Midpoint of each class = x
Product of midpoint and no. of cases of each class = fx
==>Required:
a. Mean
b. Median
c. Mode
==>SOLUTION:
a. Mean = (Σfx)/Σf
Σf = sum of no. of cases = 5+10+20+22+13+5 = 75
Σfx = 47.5+195+590+869+643.5+297.5 = 2,642.5
Mean = 2,642.5/75 = 35.2 ≈ 35
b. Median = Lm + [((Σf/2) - Cfb)/fm]Cw
Our median is between the 37th and the 38th term, which can be found in the class interval 35-44. This is our median class.
Lm = Lower class boundary of the median class = lower limit of the Medina class + upper limit of the class before the median class ÷ 2 = (35+34)/2 = 34.5
Σf/2 = 75/2 = 37.5
Cfb = Cumulative frequency of class before the median class = 5+10+20 = 35
fm = frequency of the Medina class = 22
Cw = Class width = upper class boundary - lower class boundary = 44.5-34.5 = 10
Median = 34.5 + [(37.5-35)/22] × 10
= 34.5 + [2.5/22] × 10
= 34.5 + [25/22]
= 34.5 + 1.1
= 35.6 ≈ 36
c. Mode = Lm + [∆¹/(∆¹+∆²)]Cw
Modal class = (35-44) [i.e. the class with the highest frequency, which is where our mode falls in]
Lm = lower class boundary of the modal class = lower limit of the modal class + upper limit of the class before the modal class ÷ 2 = (35+34)/2 = 34.5
∆¹ = difference between the frequency of the modal class & the frequency of the class before the modal class = 22 - 20 = 2
∆² = difference between the frequency of the modal class & the frequency of the class after the modal class = 22 - 13 = 9
Cw == Upper class boundary - Lower class boundary = 44.5 - 34.5 = 10
Mode = 34.5 + [2/(2+9)] × 10
= 34.5 + [2/11] × 10
= 34.5 + [20/11]
= 34.5 + 1.8
Mode = 36.6 ≈ 37
Evans Ltd. is now considering the possibility of offering a lifetime membership option to its subscribers. Under this proposal, subscribers could receive the monthly newsletter throughout their lives by paying a flat fee of $480. The one-year subscription rate of $40 would continue to apply to new and existing subscribers who choose to subscribe on an annual basis. Assume that the average age of Evans Ltd.'s current subscribers is 38 and their average life expectancy is 78 years. Evans Ltd.'s average interest rate on long-term debt is 12%.
Using the information given, calculate the present value of a lifetime membership for an average. (Round PV factors to 4 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: $329.75
Explanation:
The one year subscription is $40 per year. It is estimated that the average age of current subscribers is 38 and they will leave on average to 78. This means that they will leave for,
= 78 - 38
= 40 years
Evans Ltd average interest rate on long-term debt is 12% so this means that we can use that 12% as a discount rate for the cash-flow expected.
I have attached a Present Value Interest Factor of an Annuity table to this question. It helps calculate annuities faster.
The above can be treated as an annuity because the $40 is constant every year.
The present value of the $40 over 40 years can be calculated by,
= $40 * present value Interest Factor of an Annuity for 40 years at 12% (look at the table for where 40 years on the y axis intersects with 12% on the x axis)
= $40 * 8.2438 (this is the figure when it is not rounded off to 3 dp)
= $329.752
= $329.75
This shows that the lifetime flat fee of $480 is more profitable for Evans Ltd as opposed to the yearly subscription. They should therefore try to sell more of the lifetime contract with the flat fee.
You own a portfolio that has a total value of $130,000 and a beta of 1.28. You have another $49,000 to invest and you would like the beta of your portfolio to decrease to 1.18. What does the beta of the new investment have to be in order to accomplish this
Answer:βB =0.9147=beta of new investment
Explanation:
Total investment= $130,000 + $49,000= $179,000
Using
Portfolio beta(βp) = wA × βA + wB × βB
Where βp is the portfolio beta coefficient,
wA is the weight of the first investment,
βA is the beta coefficient of first investment;
wB is the weight of the second investment,
βB is the beta coefficient of second investment
but weight of investment is stock value/ total investment x 100
wA= 130,000/ 179,000X 100=72.63%
WB= 49,000/179,000 X100=27.374%
Portfolio beta(βp) = wA × βA + wB × βB
1.18=(72.63%*1.28)+(27.374% XβB )
1.18=0.9296+0.27374βB
βB i=(1.18-0.9298)/0.27374
βB =0.9147=beta of new investment
Ida Sidha Karya Company is a family-owned company located in the village of Gianyar on the island of Bali in Indonesia. The company produces a handcrafted Balinese musical instrument called a gamelan that is similar to a xylophone. The gamelans are sold for $880. Selected data for the company’s operations last year follow:Units in beginning inventory 0Units produced 280Units sold 240Units in ending inventory 40Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $ 115 Direct labor $ 335 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 35 Variable selling and administrative $ 25 Fixed costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 63,000 Fixed selling and administrative $ 23,000 The absorption costing income statement prepared by the company’s accountant for last year appears below:Sales $ 211,200Cost of goods sold 170,400Gross margin 40,800Selling and administrative expense 29,000Net operating income $ 11,800Required:Determine how much of the ending inventory consists of fixed manufacturing overhead cost deferred in inventory to the next period.
Answer:
Fixed manufacturing cost allocated to inventory= $9,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units in beginning inventory 0
Units produced 280
Units sold 240
Units in ending inventory 40
Fixed manufacturing overhead $63,000
The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable.
First, we need to calculate the unitary fixed manufacturing cost:
unitary fixed manufacturing cost= 63,000/280= $225
Fixed manufacturing cost allocated to inventory= 40*225=$9,000

Total revenue is defined as a. price minus quantity sold. b. price divided by quantity sold. c. price multiplied by quantity sold. d. quantity divided by price sold. e. price plus quantity sold.
Answer:
c. price multiplied by quantity sold
Explanation:
The total revenue is the amount of money that a company earns from selling products and services. As it is the quantity that a business received from its sales, it is calculated by multiplying the price of a product for the number of units sold. According to this, the answer is that the total revenue is defined as price multiplied by quantity sold.
Fleet Delivery Corporation is a public company with a market capitalization of less than $75 million. Fleet is poised to issue securities in a transaction that, under the Securities Act of 1933, is "exempt." This enables Fleet to ______________.
Answer:
This enables Fleet to reduce costs of regulatory compliance in relation to the security issue
Explanation:
When a company is exempt under the Securities Act of 1993,this implies that when issuing securities in the market place,the stock exchange ,the company is not required to produce audited financial statements.
Auditing financial statements sometimes cost fortunes especially when it is also required that one of the Big-4 professional firms is to be consulted.
By not requiring audited financials,the costs of audit is saved,hence cost of compliance with exchange rules is reduced overall
Data collected from the economy of Pokerville reveals that a 16% increase in income leads to the following changes:
• A 12% increase in the quantity of horses demanded.
• A 14% decrease in the quantity of clubs demanded.
• A 28% increase in the quantity of diamonds demanded.
Compute the income elasticity of demand for each good and use the dropdown menus to complete the first column in the following table.
Good Income Elasticity of Demand Normal or Inferior Good
Horses
Spades
Aces
Which of the following three goods is most likely to be classified as a luxury good?
a. Aces
b. Spades
c. Horses
Answer:
Horses - 0.75 - normal
Clubs- 0.875 - inferior
Diamonds - 1.75 - normal
Diamond is a luxury good
Explanation:
Income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in income of the consumer.
Income elasticity of demand = percentage change in demand / percentage change in income
Income elascitiy for horses = 12% / 16% =
Income elasticity of demand for spades = 14% / 16% = 0.875
Income elasticity of demand for diamonds 28% / 16% = 1.75
A normal good is a whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls.
An inferior good is a good whose demand increases when income falls and whose demand falls when income increases.
Horses and diamonds are normal goods because the demand for the goods increases with income while clubs are inferior goods because the demand for the goods falls when income rises.
A luxury good is a good whose demand rises more than the rise in income. The demands for diamonds increase more than the increase in income, so diamonds are luxury goods.

Suppose subway ridership in New York City declined by 10 percent after a fare increase of 25 cents to $2.75. Using the midpoint method, an estimate of the price elasticity of demand for subway rides is . True or False: According to your estimate, the Transit Authority's revenue rises when the fare increases. True False
Answer: Elasticity is 1.05
False
Explanation:
The Price Elasticity of Demand which measures how demand for goods change in relation to a change in price is calculated by the following formula,
Elasticity of demand = % change in Quantity ÷ % change in Prices
The Midpoint method is a method of estimating price percentage change by dividing the change in price by the AVERAGE of the new price and the old price.
The average of the changes are,
= (2.75 + (2.75 - 0.25))/2
= (2.75 + 2.5)/2
= 2.625
The Midpoint method gives a chance in price of,
= (2.75 - 2.65 )/ 2.625
= 9.5%
The Elasticity is therefore,
= Elasticity of demand = % change in Quantity ÷ % change in Prices
= 10% / 9.5%
= 1.05
According to this, the Transit Authority's revenue will not rise when Fair increases because the Elasticity is quite close to 1. An elasticity of 1 means that when fares increase, people using trains decrease by almost the same amount so revenue remains the same.
Suppose that a labor economist performs a statistical analysis on economywide worker wages using standard, measurable explanatory factors, such as job characteristics, years of schooling, and so forth. How much of the variation in worker wages can be accounted for by such measurable explanatory factors
Answer: Somewhat less than 50%
Explanation:
Here is the complete question;
Suppose that a labor economist performs a statistical analysis on economywide worker wages using standard, measurable explanatory factors, such as job characteristics, years of schooling, and so forth. How much of the variation in worker wages can be accounted for by such measurable explanatory factors?
a. Somewhat less than 50%.
b. Somewhat more than 60%
c. Nearly 100%
d. About 0%?
The variables which are typically removed from the quantitative analysis of wages are those which cannot be directly measured, directly observed or normative in nature.
Chance plays a vital role in deciding ones wage, the type of job one applies for and gets, and the salary that can be gotten. Chance cannot neither be measured nor observed. Natural ability cannot also be quantified, observed or measured. These variables are also subject to normative judgement.
Based on this analysis, the measurable traits will account for less than 50% of total variation in the wages.

On January 1, a company purchased a five-year insurance policy for $2,200 with coverage starting immediately. If the purchase was recorded in the Prepaid Insurance account, and the company records adjustments only at year-end, the adjusting entry at the end of the first year is:
Answer:
Debit Insurance Expense 440
Credit Prepaid Insurace 440
Explanation:
Since on January 1, the company purchased a five year insurance policy for $2,200 that means we have to divide the insurance policy amount of $2,200 by the numbers of year which is 5 years .
Hence:
$2,200/5 years
=440
Therefore the adjusting entry at the end of the first year is:
Debit Insurance Expense 440
Credit Prepaid Insurace 440
Walter, a single taxpayer, purchased a limited partnership interest in a tax shelter in 1993. He also acquired a rental house in 2019, which he actively manages. During 2019, Walter's share of the partnership's losses was $30,000, and his rental house generated $20,000 in losses. Walter's modified adjusted gross income before passive losses is $130,000.
A. Calculate the amount of Walter's allowable deduction for rental house activities for 2017.B. Calculate the amount of Walter's allowable deduction for the partnership losses for 2017.C. What may be done with the unused losses, if anything?
1. The unused losses may be carried.
2. tax years to reduce.
3. income in those years.
Answer:
A. $10,000
B. $0
C. The unused losses may be carried forward to future tax years to reduce passive income in those years.
Explanation:
A. Calculate the amount of Walter's allowable deduction for rental house activities for 2017.
Excess of Walter's modified adjusted gross income before passive losses over $100,000 = $130,00 - $100,000 = $30,000
Allowable deductions = $25,000 - ($30,000 * 50%) = $10,000.
It should be noted that 50 cents, used as 50% above, for each dollar the tax payers modified adjusted gross income exceeds $100,000 is deducted from$25,000 to arrive at allowable deductions. However, there will not be allowable deduction in the case that the modified adjusted gross income is greater $150,000.
B. Calculate the amount of Walter's allowable deduction for the partnership losses for 2017.
Walter is eligible for allowable deduction for the partnership losses for 2017. Therefore, Walter's allowable deduction for the partnership losses for 2017 is $0.
C. What may be done with the unused losses, if anything?
1. The unused losses may be carried forward to future
2. tax years to reduce passive
3. income in those years.
Therefore, this can be joined together as follows:
The unused losses may be carried forward to future tax years to reduce passive income in those years.

Presented below is information related to equipment owned by Bramble Company at December 31, 2020. Cost $10,260,000 Accumulated depreciation to date 1,140,000 Expected future net cash flows 7,980,000 Fair value 5,472,000 Bramble intends to dispose of the equipment in the coming year. It is expected that the cost of disposal will be $22,800. As of December 31, 2020, the equipment has a remaining useful life of 5 years.Prepare the journal entry (if any) to record the impairment of the asset at December 31, 2020
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry to record the impairment of the loss is shown below:
Loss on impairment Dr $3,670,800
To Accumulated depreciation - Equipment $3,670,800
(Being the loss on impairment is recorded)
For recording this we debited the loss on impairment as it increased the losses and credited the accumulated depreciation as it increased the balance of accumulated depreciation
Working note:
Cost $10,260,000
Less: Accumulated depreciation -$1,140,000
Carrying Amount $9,120,000
Less Fair value -$5,472,000
Plus: Cost of disposal $22,800
Loss on impairment $3,670,800
Unfortunately, Tori doesn't have enough money in her account right now. She needs to make additional contributions at the end of each of the next three years to be able to pay for the repairs. Her account currently has $5,000, which, along with her additional contributions, is expected to continue earning 9% annual interest. If she makes equal contributions each year, how large must each contribution be for Tori to have $9,000 after three years
Answer:
Annual deposit= $770.22
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
PV= 5,000
FV= 9,000
i= 0.09
n= 3
First, we need to calculate the final value of the first $5,000. We will use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 5,000*1.09^3
FV= 6,475.15
Now, we calculate the annual deposits for the difference:
Investment difference= 9,000 - 6,475.15= 2,524.85
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit

Prepare the year-end adjusting journal entry to record the bad debts using the aged uncollectible accounts receivable determined above. Assume the unadjusted balance in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a $3,600 debit. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually.) Account Titles and Explanation Debit Credit enter an account title for the adjusting entry to record the bad debts Bad Debt Expense enter a debit amount enter a credit amount enter an account title for the adjusting entry to record the bad debts Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Answer:
Find attached missing part:
Dr bad debt expense $ 22,050.00
Cr allowance for doubtful accounts $ 22,050.00
Explanation:
The estimated balance of uncollectible debts is the accounts receivable of $570,000 multiplied by 4.5% which is the rate of uncollectible debt given in the question.
Estimated balance of uncollectible debt=$570,000*4.5%=$ 25,650.00
The adjusting entries required to record bad debts as per the amount computed above is the estimated balance of uncollectible of $ 25,650.00 minus the debit balance of $3,600 already in the unadjusted balance in allowance for doubtful debts.
adjusting amount=$ 25,650.00-$3,600.00=$ 22,050.00
You work for a marketing firm that has just landed a contract with Run-of-the-Mills to help them promote three of their products: guppy gummies raskels, and cannies. All of these products have been on the market for some time, but, to entice better sales, Run-of-the-Mills wants to try a new advertisement that will market two of the products that consumers will likely consume together. As a former economics student, you know that complements are typically consumed together while substitutes can take the place of other goods. Run-of-the-Mills provides your marketing firm with the following data: When the price of guppy gummies increases by 5%, the quantity of raskels sold decreases by 4% and the quantity of cannes sold increases by 5%. Your job is to use the cross-price elasticity between guppy gummies and the other goods to determine which goods your marketing firm should advertise together Complete the first column of the following table by computing the cross-price elasticity between guppy gummies and raskels, and then between guppy gummies and cannies. In the second column, determine if guppy gummies are a complement to or a substitute for each of the goods listed. Finally, complete the final column by indicating which good you should recommend marketing with guppy gummies. Relative to Guppy Gummies Cross-Price Elasticity of Demand Complement or Substitute Recommend Marketing with Guppy Gummies Raskels Cannies
Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
Here, when the price of guppy gummies increases by 5%, the quantity of raskels sold decreases by 4% and the quantity of cannes sold increases by 5%.
i.e, % change in price of guppy grummies = 5%
% change in quantity of raskels = -4%
% change in quantity of cannes = 5%
i) Find the Cross price elasticity of demand between guppy grummies and raskels. Use the expression below.
% change in quantity demanded of raskels / % change in price of guppy gummies
= -4% / 5%
= -0.8
Substitute goods have a negative cross price elasticity of demand. Since, the cross price elasticity of demamd here is negative, the goods are substitute.
It is recommended not to advertise raskels with guppy grummies
ii) Find the Cross price elasticity of demand between guppy grummies and cannes. Use the expression below.
% change in quantity demanded of cannes / % change in price of guppy gummies
= 5% / 5%
= 1
Complement goods have a positive cross price elasticity of demand. Since, the cross price elasticity of demamd here is positive, the goods complement each other.
It is recommended to advertise cannes with guppy grummies.
Andrea Apple opened Apple Photography on January 1 of the current year. During January, the following transactions occurred and were recorded in the company's books:
1. Andrea invested $13,500 cash in the business.
2. Andrea contributed $20,000 of photography equipment to the business.
3. The company paid $2,100 cash for an insurance policy covering the next 24 months.
4. The company received $5,700 cash for services provided during January.
5. The company purchased $6,200 of office equipment on credit.
6. The company provided $2,750 of services to customers on account.
7. The company paid cash of $1,500 for monthly rent.
8. The company paid $3,100 on the office equipment purchased in transaction #5 above.
9. Paid $275 cash for January utilities.
Based on this information, the balance in the A. Apple, Capital account reported on the Statement of Owner's Equity at the end of the month would be:
A. $31,400.
B. $39,200.
C. $31,150.
D. $40,175.
E. $30,875.
Answer: D. $40,175
Explanation:
The balance in the Capital account reported on the Statement of Owner's Equity will include the Capital contributions of Andrea Apple to the business as well as the Net income from operations also known as Retained Earnings.
The Net Income for the month will be revenue less expenses.
Revenue
$5,700 cash and $2,750 on account for services provided in January.
Revenue is therefore,
= 5,700 + 2,750
= $8,450
Expenses
Expenses include the rent paid of $1,500 and the $275 paid for January Utilities.
= 1,500 + 275
= $1,775
Net Income = Revenue - Expenses
Net Income = 8,450 - 1,775
Net Income = $6,675
The Capital that Mr. Apple brought into the business refers to anything he contributed to the business whether in cash or otherwise.
The Capital therefore is,
- The $13,500 cash and the $20,000 worth of equipment.
The Capital Mr. Apple brought into the business is therefore,
= 13,500 + 20,000
= $33,500
The balance on the capital account will therefore be,
= Capital + Net Income
= 33,500 + 6,675
= $40,175
Option D. is correct.

Compute (a) accounts receivable turnover and (b) days’ sales uncollected. Hint: Recall that accounts receivable turnover uses average accounts receivable, and days’ sales uncollected uses the ending balance in accounts receivable.
Can an object accelerate if it's moving with constant speed? Yup! Many people find this counter-intuitive at first because they forget that changes in the direction of motion of an object—even if the object is maintaining a constant speed—still count as acceleration.Acceleration is a change in velocity, either in its magnitude—i.e., speed—or in its direction, or both. In uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity changes constantly, so there is always an associated acceleration, even though the speed might be constant. You experience this acceleration yourself when you turn a corner in your car—if you hold the wheel steady during a turn and move at constant speed, you are in uniform circular motion. What you notice is a sideways acceleration because you and the car are changing direction. The sharper the curve and the greater your speed, the more noticeable this acceleration will become. In this section we'll examine the direction and magnitude of that acceleration.The figure below shows an object moving in a circular path at constant speed. The direction of the instantaneous velocity is shown at two points along the path. Acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity, which points directly toward the center of rotation—the center of the circular path. This direction is shown with the vector diagram in the figure. We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion—resulting from a net external force—the centripetal acceleration
The Baldwin company will continue to train their existing workforce at their current level to help reduce turnover and improve productivity next year. Employee training costs $20 per hour. How much would their training costs per employee be to the nearest dollar
Answer: $1,600
Explanation:
The training hours per employee can be calculated by multiplying the Employee Training hours by the cost of training per employee.
From the Attached document, the Baldwin company does 80 hours of training for employees.
The Training costs per Employee is;
= 80 * 20
= $1,600
If the Baldwin Company organizes 80 hours of training for each employer in a given year, and the training cost per hour for an employee is $20, it implies that the training costs per employee would be $1,600 ($20 x 80).
Data and Calculations:
Training costs per employee per hour = $20
Training hours per employee in a year 80 hours
Total training costs per employee in a year = $1,600 ($20 x 80)
Thus, the Baldwin Company spends $1,600 per employee in training them so that employee turnover would be reduced while productivity improves.

(Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.) Overhead Rates Ordering and receiving Food processing Packaging 7.22 per order 7.79 per machine hour 3.26 per labor hour
What is the total overhead applied?
Total overhead applied $
Answer:
Total allocated overhead= $2,081,094
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
For 2017, the company had 11,300 orders and used 51,200 machine hours, and labor hours totaled 491,000
Overhead rates for each activity:
Ordering and receiving= $7.22 per order
Food processing= $7.79 per machine hour
Packaging= $3.26 per labor hour
To allocate overhead, we need to use the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Ordering and receiving= 7.22*11,300= $81,586
Food processing= 7.79*51,200= $398,848
Packaging= 3.26*491,000= $1,600,660
Total overhead= $2,081,094
Revising for Conciseness - Rejecting Redundancies and PurgingEmpty Words
Concise writing will save your reader time and make your message easier to understand. During phase three of the 3-x-3 writing process, revise for conciseness by rejecting redundancies and purging empty words.
Which of the following options are redundancies?
1) Adequate enough
2) Combined together
3) Big in size
4) Absolutely essential
Determine which empty words can be purged from the following sentence to make it more concise.
Answer: A. 1) Adequate enough
2) Combined together
3) Big in size
4) Absolutely essential
b. 3) “That was unfinished”
Explanation:
A. Redundancies in phrases refer to the repetition of words with the same or similar meanings which gives off the impression of saying the same things twice. All the options listed are therefore redundancies.
By saying something is Adequate which means that it is sufficient for something one does not again need to include enough because it is the same as sufficient as well.
By also saying Combined, one has already inferred that something was brought together. Including together again is redundant because the together is already in the definition of combined.
Big in size is another redundancy because when a person describes something as Big, they are already referring to the size of the thing in question. Adding in size is therefore not needed.
Finally, the Absolutely in the phrase makes the phrase redundant. When something is said to be essential it means that it is absolutely needed or crucial. To say something is Absolutely Essentially is like saying something is an Essential Essential.
B. The Johnson report had already been said to contain incomplete data. To go on to say that the data is Unfinished is a redundancy because by saying that it is incomplete it means that the data is by definition Unfinished. Removing the “That was unfinished” bit fixes the sentence.
Mayfair Co. allows select customers to make purchases on credit. Its other customers can use either of two credit cards: Zisa or Access. Zisa deducts a 3% service charge for sales on its credit card and credits the bank account of Mayfair immediately when credit card receipts are deposited. Mayfair deposits the Zisa credit card receipts each business day. When customers use Access credit cards, Mayfair accumulates the receipts for several days before submitting them to Access for payment. Access deducts a 2% service charge and usually pays within one week of being billed. Mayfair completes the following transactions in June.

On December 31, 2018, Interlink Communications issued 6% stated rate bonds with a face amount of $107 million. The bonds mature on December 31, 2048. Interest is payable annually on each December 31, beginning in 2019. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Determine the price of the bonds on December 31, 2018, assuming that the market rate of interest for similar bonds was 7%. (Enter your answers in whole dollars. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.)
Answer:
$93,725,580.00
Explanation:
The market price of the bond is the present value of annual coupon payment plus the present value of face amount receivable at the end of the bond tenure.
Annual coupon interest=face amount*stated rate=$107,000,000*6%=$6,420,000.00
Face amount=$107,000,000
The discount factor for annual coupon is the present of 30 years annuity(2048-2018) at 7% market rate, which is 12.4090
The discount factor for the face value is 0.1314
Price of the bond=($6,420,000.00*12.4090)+($107,000,000*0.1314)=$93,725,580.00
