Answer:
Weather machine, because it has a higher equivalent annual cash flow.
Explanation:
Discount rate :
New airplane = 9% = 0.09
Weather machine = 39% = 0.39
Calculate the Equivalent annual cashflow of each :
Using the relation :
New airplane :
(-900+500/1.09) + (600/1.09^2) * 0.09 / (1-1/1.09^2)
(−900+500÷1.09+600÷1.09^2)×9%÷(1−1÷1.09^2)
= 36.2249
Equivalent Annual cashflow of Weather Machine=(−900+550÷1.39+600÷1.39^2+685÷1.39^3)×0.39÷(1−1÷1.39^3)
= 38.0828
Based on the result of the equivalent annual cashflow, the company should opt for investing in weather machine.
acquired: Firm A has a margin of 11%, sales of $610,000, and ROI of 17%. Calculate the firm's average total assets. Firm B has net income of $72,000, turnover of 1.40, and average total assets of $920,000. Calculate the firm's sales, margin, and ROI. Firm C has net income of $136,000, turnover of 2.01, and ROI of 23.40%. Calculate the firm's margin, sales, and average total assets.
Answer:
1. Firm's average total assets = Net Income/ROI = $610,000*0.11 / 0.17 = $394,705.88
2. Sales = Assets turnover ratio * Average total assets = 1.40*920,000 = $1,288,000
Margin = Net Income / Sales = $72,000/$1,288,000 = 0.06
ROI = Net Income / Average Total Assets = $72,000/920,000 = 0.078
3. Average Total Assets = Net Income / ROI = $136,000/23.40% = 136,000/0.2340 = $581,196.58
Sales = Assets turnover ratio * Average total assets= 2.01*$581,196.58 = $1,168,205.12
Margin = Net Income / Sales = $136,000/$1,168,205.12 = 0.1164
Based on past experience, Maas Corp. (a U.S.-based company) expects to purchase raw materials from a foreign supplier at a cost of 1,000,000 francs on March 15, 2021. To hedge this forecasted transaction, on December 15, 2020, the company acquires a call option to purchase 1,000,000 francs in three months. Maas selects a strike price of $0.58 per franc when the spot rate is $0.58 and pays a premium of $0.005 per franc. The spot rate increases to $0.584 at December 31, 2020, causing the fair value of the option to increase to $7,500. By March 15, 2021, when the raw materials are purchased, the spot rate has climbed to $0.59, resulting in a fair value for the option of $10,000. The raw materials are used in assembling finished products, which are sold by December 31, 2021, when Maas prepares its annual financial statements. Prepare all journal entries for the option hedge of a forecasted transaction and for the purchase of raw materials. What is the overall impact on net income over the two accounting periods

One problem with using market values to measure GDP is that A. some useful goods and services are not sold in markets. B. you cannot compare completely heterogeneous goods by using their dollar values. C. prices for some goods change every year. D. market values of exported goods are usually priced in foreign currencies.
Answer:
C. prices for some goods change every year.
Explanation:
The reason why the real GDP (GDP adjusted to inflation) is a much better economic index than nominal GDP is that prices change over time, even if the quantities produced do not. It is actually possible for nominal GDP to increase even if total production output decreases due solely to high inflation rates.

Compute the 2020 tax liability and the marginal and average tax rates for the following taxpayers. Click here to access the 2020 tax rate schedule. If required, round the tax liability to the nearest dollar. When required, round the average rates to four decimal places before converting to a percentage (i.e. .67073 would be rounded to .6707 and entered as 67.07%). a. Chandler, who files as a single taxpayer, has taxable income of $94,800.
Answer:
Tax liability:
Chandler is in 85,525 - 163,300 bracket.
Liability is:
= 14,605.50 + (24 % * (94,800 - 85,525))
= 14,605.50 + 2,226
= $16,832
Marginal Tax rate = 24%
Marginal tax rate for 85,525 - 163,300 bracket is 24%.
Average tax rate:
= Tax liability / Taxable income
= 16,832 / 94,800
= 17.76%

What is currency in economics
Answer:
Currency, in industrialized nations, portion of the national money supply, consisting of bank notes and government-issued paper money and coins, that does not require endorsement in serving as a medium of exchange; among less developed societies, currency encompasses a wide diversity of items (e.g., livestock, stone carvings, tobacco) used as exchange media as well as signs of value or wealth. In the developed nations, where checks drawn on demand deposits are an important means of transaction, currency may actually account for only a small portion of the total money supply
Explanation:
Since the abandonment of the gold standard in the 1930s, governments have not been obligated to repay the holders of currency in any form of precious metal. Consequently the volume of currency is determined by the actions of the government or central bank and not by the supply of precious metals.
Universal Containers is rolling out a new customer service process. Customer service managers will need to edit cases for their subordinates, but not cases for other groups. Managers and users should be able to view all cases. What is the recommended solution to configure this
Answer:
I. Create standard role hierarchies.
II. Set organization-wide sharing defaults to public read/only.
Explanation:
Workflow management systems can be defined as a strategic software application or program designed to avail companies the infrastructure to setup, define, create and manage the performance or execution of series of sequential tasks, as well as respond to workflow participants. Some examples of workflow management systems used around the world; YAWL, Windows Workflow Foundation, Apache ODE, Collective Knowledge, Workflow Gen, PRPC, Salesforce.com, jBPM, Bonita BPM etc.
In this scenario, Universal Containers is rolling out a new customer service process. Customer service managers will need to edit cases for their subordinates, but not cases for other groups. Managers and users should be able to view all cases. Therefore, the recommended solution to configure this are;
I. Create standard role hierarchies: this is to represent the various end users such as managers and their subordinates.
II. Set organization-wide sharing defaults to public read/only: this settings or feature would make it impossible for any user outside of the group (owner) to edit the cases. They will only be able to view but not modify.
The Retained earnings account has a credit balance of $39,000 before closing entries are made. Total revenues for the period are $57,200, total expenses are $40,800, and dividends are $9800. What is the correct closing entry for the expense accounts?
Answer:
Debit income summary $40,800
Credit expense accounts $40,800
Explanation:
The correct closing entry for expense account would be to debit the income summary for $40,800 and then credit the expense accounts for $40,800.
Here, other items such as revenue, retained earnings and dividends would all be ignored because we were specifically asked to get the correct closing entry for expense account, hence; only expense value would be considered.
the federal government has Group of answer choices separate capital and operating budgets only a capital budget an operating budget only a single budget that includes both operating expenses and capital spending
Answer:
A single budget that includes both operating expenses and capital spending.
Explanation:
A budget can be defined as a financial plan used for the estimation of revenue and expenditures of an individual, organization or government for a specified period of time, often one year. Budgets are usually compiled, analyzed and re-evaluated on periodic basis.
In the preparation of a budget, a list of each type of income and expense with respect to the budget is generally considered to be the first step. Also, the final step is making necessary adjustments to the budget by the top executive.
The federal government has a single budget that includes both operating expenses and capital spending on a cash basis.
Additionally, the benefits of having a budget is that it aids in setting goals, earmarking revenues and resources, measuring outcomes and planning against contingencies.

2. Grocers Absorb Rise in Food Prices to Keep Customers From Straying Dec. 17, 2017 7:00 a.m.
ET: Retailers hold line on prices, fearing they will lose business to discounters and new rivals online
Food costs are ticking up after a multiyear glut of many staples. But consumers aren't paying
much more yet because grocers, discounters and online retailers are all holding down prices to win
business. Many grocers are investing in e-commerce operations to keep up with Amazon.com Inc., which
has slashed prices on products including avocados, organic milk and chicken since it acquired Whole
Foods Market this summer. "Price competition is getting more severe," said Kemper Isely, co-president of
the Colorado-based Natural Grocers by Vitamin Cottage Inc., a health-food chain that competes with
Whole Foods in the West. The chain has cut prices this year in part to try to beat Whole Foods discounts.
Considering grocers, how can you apply price elasticity of demand to this situation?
Virginia owns 100% of Goshawk Company. In the current year, Goshawk Company sells a capital asset (held for three years) at a loss of $40,000. In addition, Goshawk has a short-term capital gain of $18,000 and net operating income of $90,000 during the year. Virginia has no recognized capital gain (or loss) before considering her ownership in Goshawk. How much of the capital loss may be deducted for the year, and how much is carried back or forward if Goshawk is (a) a proprietorship and (b) a C corporation
Answer:
a. IF Goshawk Company is a sole proprietorship, it will deduct a total of $21,000 ($18,000 offset against the capital gain and $3,000 deducted from net operating income) of the $40,000 capital loss and carry forward the remaining $19,000 to subsequent years.
b. IF Goshawk Company is a C corporation, it will carry back and forward the remaining $22,000 to be deducted from its net operating income for previous or future years, after offsetting $18,000 from the $18,000 short-term capital gain.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Long-term capital loss = $40,000
Short-term capital gain = $18,000
Capital loss remaining = $22,000 ($40,000 - $18,000)
Net operating income = $90,000
A supply curve is upward-sloping because At higher prices sellers have a greater incentive to produce more, ceteris paribus. The law of supply states that as price rises, the quantity supplied increases. At lower prices sellers may not be covering their costs of production and are therefore willing to supply less. All of the answers are correct.
Answer:
All of the answers are correct.
Explanation:
The law of supply states that in a production process when the price of. Commodity increases the suppliers are more willing to supply more goods, while when price falls suppliers tend to supply less goods.
This is as a result of lower motivation to sell at a lower price where profit margins are low. The higher the price the more the profit made so they are more motivated.
Also when prices are too low the suppliers may barely cover their cost of production so they tend to supply less.
Attached is a diagram of the supply curve
The €/$ spot exchange rate is €1.50/$ and the 120 day forward exchange rate is €1.45/$. The forward premium (discount) is Group of answer choices the dollar is trading at an 8% premium to the euro for delivery in 120 days. the dollar is trading at a 5% premium to the Swiss franc for delivery in 120 days. the dollar is trading at a 10% discount to the euro for delivery in 120 days. the dollar is trading at a 5% discount to the euro for delivery in 120 days.
Answer:
The forward premium (discount) is:
the dollar is trading at a 10% discount to the euro for delivery in 120 days.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Spot exchange rate = €1.50/$
120 day forward exchange rate = €1.45/$
When the forward rate is less than the spot rate, the means that the currency is trading at a discount in the forward market.
The formula for calculating the forward premium or discount is:
= (Forward Rate Minus Spot Rate)/Forward Rate * 360/120
= (€1.45 - €1.50)/€1.45 * 360/120
= €-0.05/€1.45 * 3
= €-0.03448 * 3 = -10.3%
b) The forward premium occurs when the forward exchange rate is higher than the spot exchange rate. The forward discount occurs when the forward exchange rate is lower than the spot exchange rate. Forward premium or discount is normally expressed as the annualized percentage of the difference, using 360 days.

Milton Friedman argued that: appropriate antitrust policy can prevent businesses from causing inflation. inflation is a phenomenon of capitalist economies. prices need to be regulated and set by the government to prevent inflation. general price level increases result from the government printing too much money.
Answer:
Prices need to be regulated and set by the government to prevent inflation.
Explanation:
Milton Friedman was a monetarist. Monetarists believe in the quantity theory of money which states that inflation is a direct result of the growth of the amount of money in an economy. One of the most famous quotes by Friedman is "Inflation is always, and everywhere, a monetary phenomenon".
Under this reasoning, Friedman proposed that the government should control the money supply in order to address and maintain a stable price level, in other words, low inflation.
Friedman policies were implemented in the U.S. since the late 1970s, and emulated in most other countries in the world. Ever since, the monetary policy of most countries in the world has been aimed at controlling inflation and keeping it low.

Your farm encompasses 900 acres, and you are planning to grow soybeans, corn, and wheat in the coming planting season. Fertilizer costs per acre are: $5 for soybeans, $2 for corn, and $1 for wheat. You estimate that each acre of soybeans will require an average of 5 hours of labor per week, while tending to corn and wheat will each require an average of 2 hours per week. Based on past yields and current market prices, you estimate a profit of $9,000 for each acre of soybeans, $6,000 for each acre of corn, and $3,000 for each acre of wheat. You can afford to spend no more than $5,400 on fertilizer, and your farm laborers can supply 5,400 hours per week. How many acres of each crop should you plant to maximize total profits
Answer:
Using solver, the optimal solution = 900 acres of soybean resulting in $8,100,000 profit
Explanation:
you need to maximize 9000S + 6000C + 3000W
where:
S = acres of soybean
C = acres of corn
W = acres of wheat

The ACE Equity Fund has an expected return E[r] of 11.830% and the ZQR Bond Fund has an expected return E[r] of 6.690%. A portfolio comprised of 3% ACE and 97% ZQR would have an expected return of __________%. (percent, rounded three places after decimal)
Answer:
The answer is "6.8442%".
Explanation:
The expected portfolio return is the total average portfolio return for all stocks
ACE fund weight (wA) =3%
ACE fund (ErA) expected return= 11.830%
Bond fund ZQR weight (wB) = 97%.
The ACE fund (ErB) expected return = 6.690%
Expected portfolio return = [tex](wA \times ErA)+(wB \times ErB)[/tex]
[tex]=(3\% \times 11.830 \% )+(97 \% \times 6.690\%)\\\\= 0.03 \times 0.1183 +0.97 \times 0.0669 \\\\=0.003549+ 0.064893\\\\=0.068442\\\\=6.8442 \%[/tex]
A project has been assigned a discount rate of 12 percent. If the project starts immediately, it will have an initial cost of $480 and cash inflows of $350 a year for three years. If the start is delayed one year, the initial cost will rise to $520 and the cash flows will increase to $385 a year for three years. What is the value of the option to wait
Answer: $0.70
Explanation:
The value of the option to wait would be calculated thus:
Year Cash flow PVF at 12% PV
0 $-480 1.000 $(480.00)
1 $350 0.893 $312.50
2 $350 0.797 $279.02
3 $350 0.712 $249.12
Then, the Net present value will be:
= 312.50 + 279.02 + 249.12 - 480.00
= $360.64
Year Cash flow PVF at 12%. PV
0 $-1.000 1.000. 0
1 $-520 0.893 $(464.29)
2 $385 0.797 $306.92
3 $385 0.712 $274.04
4 $385 0.636 $244.67
Net present value = $361.34
The value of the option to wait would then be calculated as:
= $361.34 - $360.64
= $0.70
A point inside the production possibilities curve is: A) attainable and the economy is efficient. B) attainable, but the economy is inefficient. C) unattainable, but the economy is inefficient. D) unattainable and the economy is efficient. Group of answer choices
