Answer:
The income tax expense for 2019 is $128,000
Explanation:
Income tax payable for 2019 is $132,000
Deferred tax asset for 2018 will be:
(128,000-112,000) * 25%
=16000 x 25%
=$4,000
Income Tax Expenses for 2019 will be:
Income tax payable - Deferred Tax asset
=$132,000 - $4,000
=$128,000
6. Limitations of GDP Although GDP is a reasonably good measure of a nation's output, it does not necessarily include all transactions and production for that nation. Which of the following scenarios are either not accounted for or measured inaccurately by either the income or the expenditure methods of calculating GDP for the United States? Check all that apply. Funds spent by city governments to renovate their buildings The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government The costs of air and water pollution The variety of goods available to consumers When a U.S. company purchases and imports automotive parts from Canada to use to build cars within the United States, this purchase increases the component of GDP while also net exports by the same amount. Therefore, the purchase of automotive parts from Canada causes in US GDP.
Answer:
The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government
The costs of air and water pollution
The variety of goods available to consumers
It increases investment spending by businesses
Decreasing net export
No change
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the sum of the goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year.
Gross domestic product calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending + Investment spending + net export + government spending
Items not included in the calculation of GDP:
1. Intermediate goods
2. Externalities e.g. pollution
3. Measures of welfare available to individuals
4. Transactions not reported to the government.
Funds spent by city governments to renovate their buildings are included in GDP as part of investment spending.
Purchase of automative parts would be included in GDP as part of investment spending. So investment spending would rise. Also, it would be recorded as an import and import is a negative function of GDP and thus net export would decrease . As a result, the increase in investment spending would be offset by the decrease in net export and there would be no change in GDP

All of the following are part of comprehensive income except:
a. realized gains on sale of available-for-sale-securities.
b. unrealized holding gains on available-for-sale-securities.
c. a re-classification adjustment for gains included in net income.
d. all of these answer choices are correct.
Answer: d. all of these answer choices are correct
Explanation:
Available for sale securities are held by a firm with the intention of selling it before it reaches its maturity date.
So as not to report on the income statement wrongly, the Unrealized gains(losses) which are any fluctuations from the original price, throughout the Security's lifetime is posted to the Other Comprehensive Income account in the Equity section of the balance sheet. That along with the Realized gains when the security is sold.
Reclassification adjustments are also included to account for the reclassification of a security to either a profit or a loss.
All of the above are correct.
You purchased GARP stock one year ago at a price of $67.67 per share. Today, you sold your stock and earned a total return of 18.79 percent. The stock paid dividends of$2.92 per share over the year. What was the capital gains yield on your investment
Answer:
14.48%
Explanation:
The capital gains yield on the investment is increase in share price divided by the initial price paid to acquire the share a year ago.
The total return formula can be used to figure the price the stock was when sold as below:
total return =P1-Po+D/Po
P1 is the current price which is unknown
Po is the initial price of $67.67
total return is 18.79%
D is the dividend of $2.92
0.1879=P1-67.67+2.92/67.67
0.1879*67.67=P1-64.75
12.72=P1-64.75
P1=12.72+64.75
P1=77.47
Capital gains yield=(77.47 -67.67)/67.67=14.48%
Identify a true statement about the per-unit expenditure method of determining advertising budget. It bases its advertising budgets on those of competitors or other members of the industry. It attempts to determine the retail price by using production costs as a base. It sets the advertising budget as a predetermined share of profits or financial resources. It involves arguing for and presenting the advertising budget on the basis of research findings.
Answer: It attempts to determine the retail price by using production costs as a base.
Explanation:
The Per-unit expenditure approach to advertising sets the retail price based on the production cost. This means that the amount to be set for advertising is based on a fixed amount that is determined by how many units of a good the company expects to sell so that the advertising is based on how much it spent in production.

So both cash and the accounts payable account will be credited as cash decreases (asset decrease in credited) and liability increases (liability increase is credited).
Your coin collection contains 59,1952 silver dollars. If your grandparents purchased them for their face value when they were new, how much will your collection be worth when you retire in 2053, assuming they appreciate at an annual rate of 6.6 percent?
Answer:
The collection is worth $37,525.78.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Your coin collection contains 59 1952 silver dollars.
Interest rate= 6.6%
Number of years= 2053 - 1952= 101 years
To calculate the value of the collection today, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 59*(1.066^101)
FV= $37,525.78
Break-Even Sales Currently, the unit selling price of a product is $280, the unit variable cost is $230, and the total fixed costs are $560,000. A proposal is being evaluated to increase the unit selling price to $310. a. Compute the current break-even sales (units). units b. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units), assuming that the unit selling price is increased and all costs remain constant. units
Answer:
a.
Break even in units sales = 11200 units
b.
Break even in units sales = 7000 units
Explanation:
Break even sales in units is the number of units needed to be sold in order for the company to reach a point where it covers all of its total cost with its total revenue and break evens. It is a point of no profit and no loss and the total revenue is equal to the total costs.
The formula to calculate break even in units is,
Break even in units = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit
Where, contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
a.
Break even in units = 560000 / (280 - 230)
Break even in units = 11200 units
b.
Anticipated Break even in units = 560000 / (310 - 230)
Anticipated Break even in units = 7000 units
In 2010, the MoreForLess Company had revenues of $2,000,000 while costs were $1,500,000. In 2011, MoreForLess will be introducing a new product line that will generate $200,000 in sales revenues and $160,000 in costs. Assuming no changes are expected for the other products, the differential operating profit for 2011 is
Answer:
Differential profit Profit = $40,000
Explanation:
The differential operating profit is the difference between the operating profit before the introduction of the product and after the introduction of the new product
Profit = Revenue - costs
Profit before the introduction of the new product
= 2,000,000 - 1,500,000 = 500,000
Profit after the introduction of the new product
New revenue = (2,000,000 + 200,000) = 2,200,000
Cumulative cost = 1,500,000 + 160,000 = 1,660,000
Profit = 2,200,000 - 1,660,000 = 540000
Differential profit Profit = 540,000 - 500,000= $40,000
A semi-variable cost:
A. Increases and decreases directly and proportionately with changes in volume.
B. Changes in response to a change in volume, but not proportionately.
C. Increases if volume increases, but remains constant if volume decreases.
D. Changes inversely in response to a change in volume.
Answer:
B. Changes in response to a change in volume, but not proportionately.
Explanation:
A semi variable cost (or mixed cost) is a cost or expense that is partially fixed (does not change according to production output) and is also partially variable (changes according to production output). An example of semi variable costs are utilities which have a fixed minimum level per month and they increase as production output increases. Another example is the cost of a car, where insurance and lease payments are fixed but gas and maintenance expenses vary according to the number of miles driven.

Analyzing Accounts Receivable Changes The comparative balance sheets of Sloan Company reveal that accounts receivable (before deducting allowances) increased by $15,000 in 2013. During the same time period, the allowance for uncollectible accounts increased by $2,100. If sales revenue was $120,000 in 2013 and bad debts expense was 2.5% of sales, how much cash was collected from customers during the year?
Answer:
Cash was collected from customers during the year was $ 104,100
Explanation:
Sales revenue = $120,000
Bad debt expense = 2.5% of sales
Therefore, Bad debt expense = $120,000 x 2.5% = $3,000
Thus, allowance for uncollectible accounts should have increased by $3,000. But it increased by $2,100.
Therefore, uncollectible accounts receivable of $900 ($3,000 - $2,100) were written off during that year.
Cash collected from customers = Sales revenue - Increase in accounts receivable - Uncollectible accounts written off
= $120,000 - $15,000 - $900
= $104,100

To do this, we have to calculate the net profit first as follows:
Net profit = Total revenue - Total cost = $3,190,000 - $2,350,000 = $840,000
Since net profit will increase capita while drawing will reduce capital, we therefore have:
Capital at the end of the period = Capital + Net profit - Drawing = $1,885,000 + $840,000 - $770,000 = $1,955,000.
Therefore, Teresa Schafer, Capital at the end of the period is $$1,955,000.

Boren Company reported the following information for the current year: Sales (625 units) $37,800, direct materials and direct labor $14,600, other variable costs $13,200, and fixed costs $6,000. "What is the company's break-even point in units?"
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 375 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales (625 units) $37,800
direct materials and direct labor $14,600
other variable costs $13,200
fixed costs $6,000.
To calculate the break-even points in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Unitary selling price= 37,800/625= $60.48
Unitary varaible cost= (13,200 + 14,600)/625= $44.48
Break-even point in units= 6,000/ (60.48 - 44.48)
Break-even point in units= 375 units

Can't Hold Me Back, Inc. is preparing to pay its first dividends. It is going to pay $1.00, $2.50, and $5.00 a share over the next three years, respectively. After that, the company has stated that the annual dividend will be $1.25 per share indefinitely. What is this stock worth to you per share if you demand a 7% rate of return
Answer:
The stock worth to you per share if you demand a 7% rate of return is $21.78
Explanation:
In order to calculate the stock worth per share if you demand a 7% rate of return we would have to make the following calculation:
stock worth per share=PV of the first three years' returns+PV of the constant dividend stream from the fourth year
PV of the first three years' returns = 1/1.07+2.5/1.07^2+5/1.07^3 =$7.20
PV of the constant dividend stream from the fourth year,= (1.25/0.07)/1.07^3 =$14.58
Therefore, stock worth per share=$7.20 +$14.58
stock worth per share=$21.78
The stock worth to you per share if you demand a 7% rate of return is $21.78

Answer:
Explanation:
In order to calculate the value of your windfall we would have to calculate the following formula:
Value of windall=P×[1-(1÷(1+r)^n)]÷r
According to the given data we have the following:
Interest rate per annum=6.20%
Number of years= 30
Number of compoundings per per annum=1
Payment per period (P)=$2,900,000
Therefore, Value of windall=$2,900,000×(1-(1÷(1+6.2%)^30))÷6.2%
Value of windall=$39,078,091.71
The value of your windfall is $39,078,091.71
The Aberdeen Development Corporation (ADC) is considering an Aberdeen Resort Hotel project. It would be located on the picturesque banks of Grays Harbor and have its own championship-level golf course. The cost to purchase the land would be $1 million, payable now. Construction costs would be approximately $2 million, payable at the end of year 1. However, the construction costs are uncertain. These costs could be up to 20 percent higher or lower than the estimate of $2 million. Assume that the construction costs would follow a triangular distribution. ADC is very uncertain about the annual operating profits (or losses) that would be generated once the hotel is constructed. Its best estimate for the annual operating profit that would be generated in years 2, 3, 4, and 5 is $700,000. Due to the great uncertainty, the estimate of the standard deviation of the annual operating profit in each year also is $700,000. Assume that the yearly profits are statistically independent and follow the normal distribution. After year 5, ADC plans to sell the hotel. The selling price is likely to be somewhere between $4 and $8 million (assume a uniform distribution). ADC uses a 10 percent discount rate for calculating net present value. (For purposes of this calculation, assume that each year's profits are received at year-end.) Use Analytic Solver to perform 1,000 trials of a computer simulation of this project on a spreadsheet.
(a) What is the mean net present value (NPV) of the project?
(b) What is the estimated probability that the project will yield an NPV greater than $2 million?
(c) ADC also is concerned about cash flow in years 2, 3, 4, and 5. Generate a forecast of the distribution of the minimum annual operating profit (undiscounted) earned in any of the four years. What is the mean value of the minimum annual operating profit over the four years?
(d) What is the probability that the annual operating profit will be at least $0 in all four years of operation?
The Andersons have contracted with a minimum-services real estate broker to assist them in marketing their home. By law their broker has all of these duties EXCEPT:_________ a) to instruct another broker to negotiate an offer with the sellers on his behalf. b) to instruct another broker to deliver a contract to the sellers on his behalf. c) to inform the sellers of material information related to the transaction. d) to answer their questions and present any offers.
Answer:

Item8 Part 5 of 5 10 points Return to questionItem 8Item 8 Part 5 of 5 10 points Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] In 2021, the Westgate Construction Company entered into a contract to construct a road for Santa Clara County for $10,000,000. The road was completed in 2023. Information related to the contract is as follows: 2021 2022 2023 Cost incurred during the year $ 2,542,000 $ 3,772,000 $ 2,074,600 Estimated costs to complete as of year-end 5,658,000 1,886,000 0 Billings during the year 2,020,000 4,294,000 3,686,000 Cash collections during the year 1,810,000 3,800,000 4,390,000 Westgate recognizes revenue over time according to percentage of completion. 5. Calculate the amount of revenue and gross profit (loss) to be recognized in each of the three years assuming the following costs incurred and costs to complete information. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount. Loss amounts should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of amount of revenue and gross profit (loss) to be recognized in each of the three years is shown below:-
Sales revenue for the present period for 2021 = $31,00,000.00
Sales revenue for the present period for 2022 = $46,00,000.00
Sales revenue for the present period for 2023 = $23,00,000.00
Gross Profit for year 2021 = $5,58,000.00
Gross profit for year 2022 = $8,28,000.00
Gross profit for year 2023 = $2,25,400.00
To reach the sales revenue we simply deduct the Sales revenue recognized in previous period from Sales revenue recognized till date for 3 years on the other hand to compute the gross profit we simply deduct the Cost incurred during the year from Sales revenue for the present period for 3 years.
For clarification we attached the spreadsheet to reach the sales revenue and gross profit for 3 years.

Which of the following statements is correct?a. The cost of new equity (re) could possibly be lower than the cost of retained earnings (rs) if the market risk premium, risk-free rate, and the company's beta all decline by a sufficiently large amount.b. The component cost of preferred stock is expressed as rp(1 - T), because preferred stock dividends are treated as fixed charges, similar to the treatment of interest on debt.c. Its cost of retained earnings is the rate of return shareholders require on a firm's common stock.d. We should use historical measures of the component costs from prior financing when estimating a company's WACC for capital budgeting purposes.
Answer:
c. Its cost of retained earnings is the rate of return shareholders require on a firm's common stock.
Explanation:
The formula to compute the cost of retained earning is as follows
Cost of retained earning = (Expected annual dividend ÷ Price of the stock) + growth rate
It is the rate of return that equates with the cost of equity plus it also earns on the investment done in the company i.e equity
In a mathematical expression,
Cost of retained earnings = Cost of equity
hence, the correct option is c.
