Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$22,642

Explanation:

The amount of lease liability that will be reported in the balance sheet on December 31 year 3 can be calculated as follows

           Opening    Cash payment     Outstanding   Interest rate   Closing

Year 1    $107,163      $24,000            $83,163           $4990          $88,153

Year 2    $88,153       $24,000           $64,153           $3,849         $68,002

Year 3    $68,002      $24,000           $44,002         $2,640         $46,642

Year 4   $46,642       $24,000           $22,642         $1,358           $24,000

Year 5    $24,000     $24,000                  -                   -                       -        

Total liability = $46,642

Non curret = $46,642 - $24,000 =$22,642

The amount of lease liability that will be reported in the balance sheet on 31 December year 3 is $22,642

Mason Company paid its annual property taxes of $240,000 on February 15, 20X9. Mason also anticipates that its annual repairs expense for 20X9 will be $1,200,000. This amount is usually incurred and paid in July and August when operations are shut down so that machinery and equipment can be repaired. What amount should Mason deduct for property taxes and repairs in each quarter for 20X9?

Answers

Answer:

$360,000 per quarter

Explanation:

we must allocate both property taxes and annual repairs expenses equally to each quarter:

total payments = property taxes + annual repairs = $240,000 + $1,200,000 = $1,440,000

allocation to each quarter = $1,440,000 / 4 quarters = $360,000 per quarter

Accrual accounting states that expenses must be recorded when they occur and not necessarily when they are associated with a cash outflow. Since both payments involve the whole year, they must be distributed equally in all 4 quarters.

(1 point) A man invests his savings in two accounts, one paying 6% and the other paying 10% simple interest per year. He puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky. His annual interest is $9086 dollars. How much did he invest at each rate

Answers

Answer:

$82436 is invested at 6% and $41218.2 is invested at 10%

Explanation:

We were told that a man invests his savings in two accounts,

Amount invested at 6 percent interest is ?

Amount invested at 10 percent interest is ?

Let us denote the amount invested at different percent as

X=the amount invested at 6%

Y is the amount invested at 10%

Then,

0.06X + 0.10Y = 9068

But from the question, we were told He puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky which means

X = 2Y

0.06(2Y) + 0.10Y = 9068

0.12Y + 0.10Y = 9068

0.22Y = 9068

Y= 9068/0.22

Y=41218.2

Then if we substitute Y into equation above we have

X= 2×41218.2

X=82436

Therefore, $82436 is invested at 6% and $41218.2 is invested at 10%

"An individual who is 25 years from retirement has $500,000 to invest today. He is risk tolerant and is looking to withdraw $80,000 per year once he retires. Which asset allocation is BEST for this client?"

Answers

The available options are:

A. 25% Stocks / 25% Bonds / 25% REITs / 25% Money Markets

B. 50% Stocks / 40% Bonds/ 10% Cash

C. 100% Bonds

D. 100% Stocks

Answer:

B. 50% Stocks / 40% Bonds/ 10% Cash

Explanation:

Since the age of the customer is not given in the question, however, given he or she is 25 years from retirement, it is logical to assume that the customer is about 40-50 years old in age. According to the rule of thumb that "100% minus the customer's age" should be allocated to stocks for growth, hence, a stock allocation of 40-50% is about right.

Hence, in this case, the right answer is Option B: 50% Stocks / 40% Bonds/ 10% Cash

The return on common stockholders’ equity is computed by dividing a) net income less preferred dividends by ending common stockholders’ equity. b) net income less preferred dividends by average common stockholders’ equity. c) net income by ending common stockholders’ equity. d) net income by average common stockholders’ equity.

Answers

Answer:

b) net income less preferred dividends by average common stockholders’ equity

Explanation:

Common stock dividends in a company is paid to stockholders after preferred dividends have been removed.

Preference shares are issued to investors with an agreement that they will recieve dividends before other shareholders.

So when calculating return on common stockholder's equity we will first deduct dividend paid to preference share holders.

The income coming to common share holders is now divided by average common stockholders equity to get the return on common stock equity.

Return on equity is usually used as a measure of how efficiently management uses company's assets to generate profits.

Consider the market for DVD movie rentals, which is perfectly competitive.

People’s tastes change in favor of going to see more movies at cinemas with their friends and family members.b. National DVD-rental chains open a number of new stores in this market.c. There is a significant increase in the price of downloading movies on the Internet.

Answers

Answer:

a. price falls, the demand curve moves inward

b. price falls, the demand curve moves inward

c, price rises, the demand curve moves outward

a. A change in people's taste for going to cinema would reduce the number of people going to movie rentals. As a result, the demand for movie rentals would reduce and move inward or leftward. As a result of the inward movement of the demand curve, supply would outstrip demand and prices would fall below $3.50

b. If a National DVD-rental chains opens nationwide, there would be a decrease in demand for DVD movie rentals. As a result, the demand for movie rentals would reduce and move inward or leftward and price falls

A rise in the price of downloading movies on the Internet would increase the cost of downloading movies. This would make people less interested in downloading movies. As a result, the demand for DVD movie rentals would increase. The demand curve would shift outward and price would rise as a result.

Throughout the entire semester, you were trained to relate expenses to the revenues generated in the same accounting period. Differently put, the Income Statement must show the revenues and relevant expenses that took place in the same period. Which principle is related to this practice

Answers

Answer:

matching principle

Consider an industry that is made up of nine firms each with a market share (percent of sales) as follows: a. Firm A: 30% b. Firm B: 20% c. Firms C, D, and E: 10% each d. Firms F, G, H, and J: 5% each What is the value of the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index and how is the industry categorized?

Answers

Answer:

Herfindahl-Hirschman Index is 1400 and the industry is categorized as a competitive industry

Explanation:

The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index is a market indicator that is used to measure how competitive the companies or firms in an industry is. It tells whether the industry is highly competitive or monopolistic.

It is obtained by adding the square of the market share of all the firms in an industry. That is,

Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) = s1 + s2 + s3 +....... sn

(where s = market share of individual firms in an industry.)

From the question,

Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) = (30)² + (20)² + 10)² +(10)² + (10)²+ (5)²            

                                                            + (5)²+ (5)² + (5)²

                                                         = 600 + 400 + 100 +100 + 100 + 25 + 25 +

                                                            + 25 + 25

                                                         =  1400

An industry with an Herfindahl-Hirschman Index of less than 1500 units is categorized as a COMPETITIVE INDUSTRY.

One with an index of between 1500 to 2500 is considered as moderately competitive.

While an industry with higher values of HHI tends towards a monopoly.
