Jane currently has $5,300 in her savings account and $2,000 in her checking account at the local bank. Instructions:
A. If Jane withdraws $500 in cash from her savings account, by what dollar amount will the country's money supply (M1 and M2) change as a result of Jane's actions?
B. Suppose that after Jane withdraws $500 from her checking account, she uses $180 of this money to pay her federal income tax. After paying her taxes, Jane uses $160 to buy a set of used golf clubs from her neighbor, who then deposits the money into his checking account. Jane deposits the remaining cash from the $500 withdrawal into her savings account. By what dollar amount will the country's money supply change as a result of Jane's actions?

Answers

Answer:

A

M1 change = $500M2 change = $0

B

M1 change = -$340M2 change = -$180

Explanation:

A. M1 includes actual liquid cash in hand as well as cash in checking deposits.

M2 includes M1 as well as savings deposits and time deposits amongst others.

M1 change = +$500

$500 went from the Savings account which was not part of M1 to M1.

M2 change = $0

The money went from Savings to Checking which are both part of M2.

B.

M1 change = -$-180 - ( 500 - 180 -160 ) = -$340

Tax of $180 went out of the supply as tax. Jane deposits the remaining cash after paying $160 for goods into the savings account which is not part of M1. That remaining cash is = 500 - 180 - 160 = $160.

M2 change = -500 + 160 + 160 = -$180

For M2, only taxes will reduce money from it because the rest goes to checking deposits and savings accounts both of which are part of M2

Determine the (1) current ratio and (2) quick ratio for both years. Round to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

Current ratio

Year 1 = 1.3

Year 2 = 1.1

Quick ratio

Year 1 = 1.0

Year 2 = 0.8

Explanation:

Current ratio is the ration of a company's current assets to the current liabilities while the quick ratio is similar to the current asset except that the prepaid expenses and inventories are excluded from the determination of the assets.

Current assets

Year 1 = 9,096 + 2,913 + 6,437 + 2,720 + 1,865

= $ 23,031.00

Year 2 =  6,134 + 2,592 + 6,651 + 3,143 + 2,143

= $ 20,663.00

Current Liabilities

Year 1 = 4,071 + 13,507

= $ 17,578.00

Year 2 = 5,076 + 13,016

= $ 18,092.00

Current ratio

Year 1 = $ 23,031.00/$ 17,578.00

= 1.3 ( to 1 decimal place)

Year 2 = $ 20,663.00/$ 18,092.00

= 1.1 to 1 decimal place

Quick ratio

Year 1

= (23,031.00 - 2,720 - 1,865)/ 17,578.00

= 1.0 to 1 decimal place

Year 2

= (20,663.00 - 3,143 - 2,143)

= 0.8 to 1 decimal place

Softwind Manufacturing anticipates annual sales of 40,000 units and has the following information regarding one of its products: Annual unit sales 40,000 Fixed manufacturing costs $ 22 Variable manufacturing costs 44 Variable selling and administrative costs 16 Fixed selling and administrative costs 8 Desired profit per unit 18 If Softwind uses cost-plus pricing based on absorption manufacturing cost, what is the sales price Softwind will charge for this product

Answers

Answer:

Selling price= $84

Explanation:

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).

Unitary cost= varaible manufacturing cost + fixed manufacturing cost

Unitary cost= 44 + 22= $66

Selling price= 66 + 18

Selling price= $84

Sibila, Inc. sells its product for $40. The variable costs are $18 per unit. Fixed costs are $16,000. The company is considering the purchase of an automated machine that will result in a $2 reduction in unit variable costs and an increase of $5,000 in fixed costs. Which of the following is true about the break-even point in units?

a. It will remain unchanged
b. It will decrease.
c. It will increase.
d. It cannot be determined from the information provided.

Answers

Answer:

c. It will increase.

Explanation:

Break even point is the level of activity at which a firm neither makes a profit nor a loss.

Break - even units = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

therefore,

Existing break-even point in units :

Break - even units = $16,000 ÷ ($40 - $18) = 727.27 or 728 units

New break-even point in units :

Break - even units = $21,000 ÷ ($40 - $16) = 875 units

Conclusion :

The results show that break-even point in units will increase from 728 units to  875 units as a result of the changes

A product sells for $210 per unit, and its variable costs per unit are $130. The fixed costs are $420,000. If the firm wants to earn $35,000 after tax income (assume a 30% tax rate), how many units must be sold

Answers

Answer:

5,688 units

Explanation:

Target sales = Target Profit + Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

where,

Contribution per unit = Sales - Variable Costs

                                   = $210 - $130 = $80

therefore,

Target sales = ($35,000 + $420,000)  ÷  $80 = 5,688 units

Beginning inventory $ 590,300 Purchases 1,472,500 Total goods available for sale $2,062,800 Sales revenue 2,455,000 Compute the ending inventory, assuming that (a) gross profit is 46% of sales, (b) gross profit is 60% of cost, (c) gross profit is 36% of sales, and (d) gross profit is 25% of cost.

Answers

Answer:

a. $948,888

b. $773,550

c. $1,237,680

d. $412,560

Explanation:

The Ending Inventory is calculated using the missing figure approach or the Gross Margin technique.

that is,

Ending Inventory =  Cost of Goods Available for Sale - Cost of  Sales

thus,

This can be clearly done by writing up a Trading Account as shown below for each scenario.

also remember,

Cost + Profit = Sales

so for those based on cost use this formula.

for example : gross profit is 60% of cost

will be : 100 % + 60 % = 160 %

A customer’s specification for weight of an antiseptic cream sold in plastic tubes is 4.00 ounces ± 0.02 ounces. The target process capability ratio is 1.00. At Brooklyn Pharmaceuticals, the current distribution of the filling process is centered on 4.005 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.004 ounces. Compute Cp and Cpk and report whether the filling process is capable of delivering to customer specifications?

Customer Specification 3.98
Process Average 4.005
Process Standard Deviation 0.004

Answers

Answer:

Cp = 1.667

Cpk = 1.25

The filling process will deliver the customer's specifications since Cp > 1 and Cpk > 1

Explanation:

Given data:

Customer Specification           3.98          4.02

Process Average                      4.005

Process Standard Deviation    0.004

Calculate the Cp and Cpk values

Cp = Δ customer specification / ( 6 * std )

     = (4.02 - 3.98 ) / ( 6 * 0.04 )

     = 0.04 / 0.24 = 0.1667 + 1 = 1.667

Cpk ( upper ) = ( 4.02 - process average ) / ( 3* std )

                      = ( 4.02 - 4.005 ) / ( 3 * 0.004 )  = 1.25

Cpk ( lower ) = ( process average - 3.98 ) / ( 3 * std )

                     = ( 4.005 - 3.98 ) / ( 3 * 0.04 ) = 2.083

Cpk = minimum value of Cpk = 1.25

As 2017, Buttle Corp. has $10 par, 2% preferred stock, 6,500 shares outstanding, and $1 par common stock with 32,000 shares outstanding. The preferred stock is cumulative and preferred stockholders last received a dividend in 2014. If the company wants to distribute $4 per share to the common stockholders in 2017, what is the total amount of dividends that the company must pay at the end of the current year

Answers

Answer:

$131,900

Explanation:

Th computation of the total amount of dividend is shown below:

dividend per year for preferred stock is

= (10 × 6500) × 2%

= $1300

Now the total dividend for preferred stock is

= ($1300 × 3)

= $3900

And, the Total common dividend is

= (4 × 32,000)

= $128,000

So, the total dividend to be paid is

= $3,900 + $128,000

= $131,900

Answer:

b

Explanation:

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export

Net export = exports – imports

When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.  

Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:  

1. services not rendered to oneself

2. Activities not reported to the government  

3. illegal activities

4. sale or purchase of used products

5. sale or purchase of intermediate products

a 12-inch Subway sandwich purchased by a student is the only final good and thus it would be included in GDP as part of consumption spending on non durable goods

the lettuce, the bread and the plastic bags constitute intermediate goods. Including intermediate goods in the calculation of GDP would lead to double counting

First step is to calculate what Logan's pay, if MG is a C corporation

Logan's pay, if MG is a C corporation =($83,000*24%)

Logan's pay, if MG is a C corporation = $19,920

Second step is to calculate Logan's pay, if MG is a S Corporation

Logan's pay, if MG is a S Corporation =[($83,000-$58,000)*24%]

($116,000*50% = $58,000)

Logan's pay, if MG is a S Corporation=$6,000

Now let calculate how much more tax will Logan pay currently

Logan pay currently = ($19,920-$6,000)

Logan pay currently = $13,920

Therefore how much more tax will Logan pay currently if MG is a C corporation compared to the tax he would pay if it were an S corporation will be $13,920

UPS, a delivery services company, has a beta of 1.4, and Wal-Mart has a beta of 0.8. The risk-free rate of interest is 4% and the market risk premium (rM-rRF) is 6%. What is the expected return on a portfolio with 40% of its money in UPS and the balance in Wal-Mart?

Answers

Answer:

10.24%

Explanation:

the expected return on a portfolio can be determined using CAPM

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

Beta of the portfolio = (percentage of UPS in portfolio x beta of UPS) + (percentage of Wal-mart in portfolio x beta of Wal - Mart )

(1.4 x 0.4) + (0.8 x 0.6)

= 0.56 + 0.48

= 1.040

Expected return = 4% + (1.040 x 6%) = 10.24%

Oil Services Corp. reports the following EPS data in its 2017 annual report (in million except per share data). Net income $1,827 Earnings per share: Basic $1.56 Diluted $1.54 Weighted average shares outstanding: Basic 1,172 How many weighted average shares were dilutive in 2017

Answers

Answer:

15.2million dilutive shares

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How many weighted average shares were dilutive in 2017.

First step is to calculate the Basic EPS using this formula

Basic EPS= Net income -Basic

Let plug in the formula

Basic EPS= $1,827 /$1.56

Basic EPS=$1,171.2 million

Second step is to calculate the Diluted EPS

Diluted EPS =$1,827 million / $1.54

Diluted EPS = $1,186.4 million.

Now let calculate How many weighted average shares were dilutive in 2017

2017 Diluted weighted average=$1,186.4 million - $1,171.2 million.

2017 Diluted weighted average= 15.2million dilutive shares

Therefore How many weighted average shares were dilutive in 2017 is 15.2 million dilutive shares
