Suppose the U.S. government cuts back on government spending and increases taxes in an effort to reduce the budget deficit. What would be the effect of these changes on the U.S. balance of payments?

a. There would be no change because the balance of payments always equals zero.
b. There would be an increase in the current account and an increase in the capital account.
c. There would be a decrease in the current account and a decrease in the capital account.
d. There would be a decrease in the current account and an increase in the capital account.
d. There would be an increase in the current account and a decrease in the capital account.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. There would be a decrease in the current account and an increase in the capital account.

Explanation:

The balance of payment in accounting typically comprises of capital account and current account, it is used for the recording of business transactions between two countries. Capital accounts are used to record any trade between two countries relating to financial assets and liabilities.

The current account is used to record trades relating to import and export of goods and services in a country.

Hence, if the U.S. government cuts back on government spending and increases taxes in an effort to reduce the budget deficit. The effect of these changes on the U.S. balance of payments is that there would be a decrease in the current account because it has no effect on the value of assets and liabilities, thereby affecting the export and import of goods and services.

Also, there would be an increase in the capital account due to the fact that the government tends to borrow more and seeks foreign investors.

Answer:

Explanation:

The following information can be derived from the question above:

The cost of the beginning work in the process inventory = $3,570

The cost of the ending work in the process inventory = $2,860

The cost that is added to the production = $43,120.

In the attached document, it should be noted that the cost of goods that were transferred out was calculated as:

The total cost to be accounted for minus the cost of the ending work in the process inventory. This is:

= 46690 - 2860

= 43830

Garrison 16e Rechecks 2019-01-10 Required: 1. Compute the company's return on investment (ROI).

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 0.20 or 20%

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The sales = $ 3,000,000

The Net operating income= $150,000

The Average operating assets =$ 750,000

The next step is to calculate the company return rate of investment

Thus,

The return of investment is stated as follows:

the return of investment = Net operating income divided by the average operating assets * 100

= $150,000/$750,000

= 0.2 * 100

= 20 %

Therefore, the company's ROI is 20%

a. Determine Orange's cost recovery for 2018
The office furniture is classified as a seven-year class of property for MACRS. If bonus depreciation is elected, Orange's deduction is
b. Determine Orange's cost recovery for 2018 if Orange decided to only use $52,000 of bonus depreciation and normal MACRS on the balance of the acquisition cost.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a) The asset is purchased in 2018.

In 2018, bonus depreciation % has been increased from 50% to 100%. If bonus depreciation is elected Orange Corporation can deduct 100% of Purchase cost of $130,000.

The office furniture is classified as seven year class of property for MACRs. If bonus depreciation is elected Orange's deduction is $130,000

= $130,000

b) if Orange decides to use only $52,000 of bonus depreciation, it can claim depreciation (MACRS) on balance amount of acquisition cost.

Cost Recovery for 2018:

Bonus depreciation = $52,000

MACRS Depreciation [($130,000 - $52,000) * 14.29%]= $11,146.20

Hence, Cost Recovery for 2018 = Bonus depreciation + MACRS Depreciation

= $52,000 + $11,146.20  

= $63,146 (rounded off to nearest dollar)

Omaha Beef Co. purchased a delivery truck for $50,000. The residual value at the end of an estimated eight-year service life is expected to be $10,000. The company uses straight-line depreciation for the first six years. In the seventh year, the company now believes the truck will be useful for a total of 10 years (four more years), and the residual value will remain at $10,000. Calculate depreciation expense for the seventh year.

Answers

Answer:

2500

Explanation:

First depreciate for 6 years using regular method: (Cost - Salvage Value)/Initial Useful life

(50,000-10,000)/8 = 5000 <- this is annual depreciation

For 6 years, $30,000 accumulated depreciation

Now to calculate change in useful life, you do (Cost - Accumulated Depreciation - Salvage Value)/Remaining Useful life

Remaining Useful life = 10-6 = 4

(50,000-30,000-10,000)/4 = 2500

Consider each of the following independent scenarios:a.Terrin Belson, plant manager for the laser printer factory of Compugear Inc., brushed his hair back and sighed. December had been a bad month. Two machines had broken down, and some factory production workers (all on salary) were idled for part of the month. Materials prices increased, and insurance premiums on the factory increased. No way out of it; costs were going up. He hoped that the marketing vice president would be able to push through some price increases, but that really wasn’t his department.b. Joanna Pauly was delighted to see that her ROI figures had increased for the third straight year. She was sure that her campaign to lower costs and use machinery more efficiently (enabling her factories to sell several older machines) was the reason why. Joanna planned to take full credit for the improvements at her semiannual performance review.c. Gil Rodriguez, sales manager for ComputerWorks, was not pleased with a memo from headquarters detailing the recent cost increases for the laser printer line. Headquarters suggested raising prices. "Great," thought Gil, "an increase in price will kill sales and revenue will go down. Why can’t the plant shape up and cut costs like every other company in America is doing? Why turn this into my problem?"d. Susan Whitehorse looked at the quarterly profit and loss statement with disgust. Revenue was down, and cost was up—what a combination! Then she had an idea.

Answers

Answer: a. Cost center b. Investment center. c. Revenue center d. Profit center. d. Investment center.

Explanation:

a. Cost center

We are informed that Terrin Belson, a plant manager for the laser printer factory of Compugear Inc., complained that two machines had broken down, and some factory production workers were idled for part of the month. He also complained that materials prices has and insurance premiums on the factory has increased and costs were going up.

The responsibility center involved here is the cost center. Everything he was complaining about was with regards to the rise on costs of running the company. Therefore, the cost center should be in charge.

b. Investment center

We are told that Joanna Pauly was delighted to see that her ROI figures had increased for the third straight year as she was sure that her campaign to lower costs and efficiently use of machinery was the reason for this.

This is the responsibility of the investment center. We can see that Joanna is talking about the increase in the return on investment. Therefore, the investment center should be responsible to handle this.

c. Revenue center

From the information, we are told that Gil Rodriguez, sales manager for ComputerWorks, was not pleased with a memo from headquarters detailing recent cost increases for the laser printer line. The headquarters suggested that increase in prices will kill sales and that the revenue will go down.

The responsibility center involved in this situation is the revenue center. We can see that the headquarters was concerned that the increase will in price will affect revenue as the revenue will reduce. This is the revenue center in charge.

d. Profit center

We are told that Susan Whitehorse looked at the quarterly profit and loss statement with disgust as the revenue was down, and the cost was up. The responsibility center in charge here is the profit center as the main issue of discussion is about the profit and loss of the company.

e. Investment center

We are told that Shonna Lowry had just been hired to improve the fortunes of the Southern Division of ABC Inc. and that after meeting with top staff, she gave out a 3-year plan to improve the situation as obsolete equipment will be retired and the state-of-the-art, computer-assisted machinery will be bought.

This is an investment because she told the firm to buy state-of-the-art, computer-assisted machinery will be bought in order to improve their fortunes. The responsibility center involved is the investment center.

Minor Company installs a machine in its factory at the beginning of the year at a cost of $135,000. The machine's useful life is estimated to be 5 years, or 300,000 units of product, with a $15,000 salvage value. During its first year, the machine produces 64,500 units of product. Determine the machines' first year depreciation under the units-of-production method.

Answers

Answer:

$25,800

Explanation:

The units-of-production deprecation method depreciates an asset based on the total units produced each year.

Unit of production depreciation expense = (units produced / total expected units of production) × (cost of asset - salvage value)

(64,500 / 300,000) x ($135,000 - $15,000)

0.215 x $120,000 = $25,800

Nate is a partner in a partnership that received $5,000 of interest income this year. Nate's share of the interest is $1,000, and he should report this income on his individual return as:

Answers

Answer:

Interest Income

Explanation:

Based on the described scenario it can be said that Nate should report this income on his individual return as Interest Income. This is the amount of interest that the individual has earned in a specific period of time. This is what Nate has made by collecting his share of the interest and should be reported as such since Income from flow-through entities retains its character when reported on individual returns.

Insurance companies facilitate the transfer of risk from Multiple Choice those who have a low-risk tolerance to those with high risk-tolerance. insurance policyholders to the government. those who have a high-risk tolerance to those with low risk-tolerance. the insurance companies' owners to the insurance policyholders.

Answers

Answer:

Those who have a low-risk tolerance to those with high risk-tolerance.

Explanation:

In Insurance, risk tolerance refers to the willingness of an individual or organization to take a risk in business transactions in order to get a potentially positive reward.

Simply stated, risk tolerance in insurance is the willingness of an insured individual to increase his or her Self-Insured Retentions (SIRs) or deductibles by the insurer. For instance, the high risk associated with investments such as stocks, high-yield bonds, is often perceived by investors to be worth the higher reward such investment brings.

Insurance companies facilitate the transfer of risk from those who have a low-risk tolerance to those with high risk-tolerance. The transfer of risk in insurance refers to the process whereby an individual or entity pay premiums to an insurer for the purpose of mitigating potential losses or liabilities.

Generally, insurance companies across the globe charge millions of their customers (insured) premiums every year. This gives them the privilege of having a pool of cash which can be used to cover the cost of losses and destruction to the asset of a small fraction or percentage of its customers.

This simply means that, since insurance companies collect premium from all of their customers for losses which may or may not occur, so they can easily use this cash to compensate or indemnify for losses incurred by those having high risk.

The first year after you retire you want to be able to withdraw $100,000 from your savings account. Every year after that you want to increase your withdrawals by 2%. You expect that the account will earn 6% annual interest. How much money must you have in your savings account when you retire to make sure that your money lasts for 25 years

Answers

Answer:

Total amount of money to be had in savings is $1,544,352.63

Explanation:

First withdrawal is $100,000 and is increases by 2% every year till 25 years.

The amount required in savings account can be calculated by knowing the present value of growing annuity.

Annuity = [tex](p /(r-g) *[ 1 -(1+g / 1+r)^n][/tex]

given, p = $100,000

r = 6% = 0.06

g=2% = 0.02.

n = number of periods = 25.  

= (100,000 ÷ (0.06 - 0.02)) × [ 1 - (1.02 ÷ [tex]1.06)^{25[/tex] ]

= $2,500,000 × [1 - 0.382258949]

= $2,500,000 × 0.61774105

= $1,544,352.63

Suppose your employer offers you a choice between a $ 4 comma 600 bonus and 200 shares of the company stock. Whichever one you choose will be awarded today. The stock is currently trading for $ 64 per share. Ignore transaction costs. a. Suppose that if you receive the stock​ bonus, you are free to trade it. Which form of the bonus should you​ choose? What is its​ value? b. Suppose that if you receive the stock​ bonus, you are required to hold it for at least one year. What can you say about the value of the stock bonus​ now? What will your decision depend​ on?

Answers

Answer:

a. Suppose that if you receive the stock​ bonus, you are free to trade it. Which form of the bonus should you​ choose? What is its​ value?

I would choose the stock bonus because the current market price = 200 x $64 = $12,800 which is much higher than $4,600 (cash bonus)

b. Suppose that if you receive the stock​ bonus, you are required to hold it for at least one year. What can you say about the value of the stock bonus​ now? What will your decision depend​ on?

Even if you are required to hold the stock for one year, the price difference with the cash bonus is too great = ($12,800 - $4,600) / $4,600 = 178% higher. Since you are employed by the company, you should know if the company is doing well or not, and the probable future stock price.

Only if something catastrophic happened to the company would make the cash bonus more attractive.

Freya Co. has two patents that have allegedly been infringed by competitors. After investigation, legal counsel informed Freya that it had a weak case for Patent A34 and a strong case in regard to Patent B19. Freya incurred additional legal fees to stop infringement on Patent B19. Both patents have a remaining legal life of 8 years. How should Freya account for these legal costs incurred relating to the two patents?

Answers

Answer:

Freya needs to expense costs for Patent A34 and capitalize costs for Patent B19.

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described it can be said that Freya needs to expense costs for Patent A34 and capitalize costs for Patent B19. That is because a successful defense of a patent needs to be capitalized and amortized since you can now monetize and recover the costs incurred as well as make a profit off of the patent. On the other hand, unsuccessful defense of a patent needs to be expensed as incurred since that patent cannot be used to make money and recover costs.

Kat Outfitting currently has $22,500 in cash. The company owes $49,500 to suppliers for merchandise and $52,500 to the bank for a long-term loan. Customers owe the company $41,000 for their purchases. The inventory has a book value of $76,800 and an estimated market value of $72,000. If the store compiled a balance sheet as of today, what would be the book value of the current assets?

Answers

Answer:

The book value of the current assets is $140,300

Explanation:

Cash = $22,500

Amount owed by company = $49,500

Amount Owed by Customers = $41,000

Book Value of Inventory  = $76,800

Estimated market value = $72,000

Book Value of Current Assets = Cash + Amount Owed by Customers + Book Value of Inventory

Book Value of Current Assets = $22,500 + $41,000 + $76,800

Book Value of Current Assets = $140,300

Chocolates R' Us, Inc is owned equally by Desi and his wife Lucy, each of whom hold 550 shares in the company. Lucy plans to reduce her ownership in the company, with the company planning to redeem 475 of her shares for $10,000 per share on December 31 of this year. Assume Desi and Lucy are not getting along and have separated due to marital discord, but are not legally separated. Because they no longer talk to each other, they communicate only through their accountant. Lucy wants to argue that she should not be treated as owning any of Desi's stock in Chocolates because of their hostility toward each other. Can family hostility be used as an argument to voice the family attribution rules?

Answers

Answer:

Chocolates R' Us, Inc.

Family hostility cannot be used as an argument to void the family attribution rules.

Lucy is still legally married to Desi.  What the husband, Desi, therefore, owes, she owes equally despite their separation and her intention to reduce her ownership in their joint company.

The new growth theory states that technological advances are the result of discoveries and choices, rather than random choices. It explains the fact that new innovations and technological advancement are not the result of random chance, but they occur as a result of humans and their desire for new innovations.

Cash = $21,000,000

Other Assets = $26,000,000

Total Assets = $47,000,000

Liabilities = $20,000,000

Equity = $27,000,000

Hopewell Corporation Income Statement January 1 to March 31, 2020

Revenue = $5,500,000

Expenses = $2,600,000

Net Income = $2,900,000

Between January 1 and March 31, 2020:

1. Cash decreases by $100,000

2. Liabilities decrease by $300,000

3. Paid-In Capital does not change

4. Dividends paid of $300,000

Assets

Cash = $21,000,000 - $100,000 = $20,000,000

Liabilities = $20,000,000 - $300,000 = $19,700,000

Equity = $27,000,000 + $2,600,000 - $300,000 = $29,300,000

Total Liabilities & Equity = $19,700,000 + $29,300,000 = $ 49,000,000

Other assets =  $49,000,000 - $20,000,000 = $29,000,000

Should the home country be "large" relative to the world, its imposition of a tariff on imports would lead to an increase in domestic welfare if the terms-of-trade effect exceeds the sum of the:_________

a. revenue effect plus redistribution effect.
b. protective effect plus revenue effect.
c. consumption effect plus redistribution effect.
d. production distortion effect plus consumption distortion effect.
e. None of the above.

Answers

Answer:

Option e. is correct

Explanation:

The Terms of Trade is equal to the average price of exports / by the average price of imports. The terms-of-trade refers to the relative price of exports in terms of imports.

Protective effect refers to the wasted resources due to production of good at a higher cost. Consumption effect refers to the loss to consumer due to higher price that leads to less consumption.

Should the home country be "large" relative to the world, its imposition of a tariff on imports would lead to an increase in domestic welfare if the terms-of-trade effect exceeds the sum of the protective effect plus consumption effect
