During its first five years of operations, a company reports net income and pays dividends as follows. Required: Calculate the balance of retained earnings at the end of each year. Note that retained earnings will always equal $0 at the beginning of year 1.
Answers:
Years:
$700$1,900$3,000$5,200$8,600Explanation:
Retained earnings for the year is:
= Beginning retained earnings + Net income - Dividends
Year 1
= 0 + 1,200 - 500
= $700
Year 2
= 700 + 1,700 - 500
= $1,900
Year 3
= 1,900 + 2,100 - 1,000
= $3,000
Year 4
= 3,000 + 3,200 - 1,000
= $5,200
Year 5
= 5,200 + 4,400 - 1,000
= $8,600

Novak Corp. bought equipment on January 1, 2022. The equipment cost $390000 and had an expected salvage value of $35000. The life of the equipment was estimated to be 5 years. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. The book value of the equipment at the beginning of the third year would be
Answer:
$177,000
Explanation:
In order to find the book value of the equipment we need to find the amount of depreciation per year. To do this we need to subtract the salvage value from the initial cost and then simply divide by 5 which is the life span of the equipment...
(390,000 - 35,000) / 5 = x
355,000 / 5 = x
71,000 = x
Now we see that the equipment will depreciate by $71,000 per year. In three years the depreciation would be
71,000 * 3 = 213,000
Now we simply subtract this value from the initial cost to get the book value in the third year
390,000 - 213,000 = 177,000
Reynolds Manufacturers Inc. has estimated total factory overhead costs of $134,200 and expected direct labor hours of 12,200 for the current fiscal year.

Find the present values of the following cash flow streams. The appropriate interest rate is 10%. (Hint: It is fairly easy to work this problem dealing with the individual cash flows. However, if you have a financial calculator, read the section of the manual that describes how to enter cash flows such as the ones in this problem. This will take a little time, but the investment will pay huge dividends throughout the course.
Year    Cash Stream A Cash Stream B
1 $100 $300
2 400 400
3 400 400
4 400 400
5 300 100
   Â
Required:
What is the value of each cash flow stream at a 0 percent interest rate?
Answer:
a. The present value of Cash flow stream A at 10% interest rate is $1,181.50; while the present value of Cash flow streams B at 10% interest rate is $1,239.13.
b. Present value of Cash flow streams A and B at 0% interest rate are both equal to $1,600.
Explanation:
a. Calculations of the present values of Cash Flow Stream A and B at 10% interest rate
The present value (PV) for a particular year can be calculated using the following formula:
PV = FV / (1 + r)^n
Where:
PV = present value of a particular year
FV = Future value or cash stream of a particular year
r = interest rate = 10%
n = The particular year in focus
The present value of cash flow streams at a particular interest rate is the sum of the present values of Cash Stream for all years, and this can be calculated as follows:
Present value of Cash flow stream A at 10% interest rate = (100 / (1 + 10%)^1) + (400 / (1 + 10%)^2) + (400 / (1 + 10%)^3) + (400 / (1 + 10%)^4) + (300 / (1 + 10%)^5) = $1,181.50
Present value of Cash flow streams B at 10% interest rate = (300 / (1 + 10%)^1) + (400 / (1 + 10%)^2) + (400 / (1 + 10%)^3) + (400 / (1 + 10%)^4) + (100 / (1 + 10%)^5) = $1,239.13
b. Calculations of the present values of Cash Flow Stream A and B at 0% interest rate
The present value of cash flow streams at a 0% is simply the sum of Cash Flow Stream for all years, and this can be calculated as follows:
Present value of Cash flow stream A at 0% interest rate = $100 + $400 + $400 + $400 + $300 = $1,600
Present value of Cash flow streams B at 0% interest rate = $300 + $400 + $400 + $400 + $100 = $1,600
Assume that, compared with other nations, the country of New Bispo has a higher opportunity cost in the production of automobiles and a lower opportunity cost in the production of televisions. Determine whether the statements below are true or false.
a. Without trade, if the people of New Bispo want automobiles and televisions, New Bispo will produce its own automobiles and televisions.
b. With specialization and trade, New Bispo can obtain one or more automobiles from another nation by trading some of its televisions for automobiles.
c. New Bispo should specialize in producing the items in which it has a higher opportunity cost compared to other nations.
d. Without trade, the opportunity cost for New Bispo of producing more automobiles is fewer televisions.
e. With specialization and trade, the combinations of automobiles and televisions that New Bispo can consume are limited to points below the production possibility frontier.
Solution :
Statement a is TRUE.
-- As without trade, a country will consume what the country produces in its country. So the country, New Bispo will have to produce their own television and automobiles as they are operating under autarky.
Statement b is TRUE.
-- The country New Bispo has a comparative advantage than the other countries in production of television. Specialization as well as trade makes the country to exchange its best products(television) for some other goods(i.e. automobiles) and benefited from it.
Statement c is FALSE.
-- The statement is false as the when a country produces more of products in which it specializes and also has a lower opportunity cost, it provides for the maximum benefit. So by using specialization, the country can concentrate on production of a single item at a time that it can do its best.
Statement d is TRUE.
-- The opportunity cost for the production of automobiles is high for New Bispo, therefore, it indicates that a country will produce more of automobiles but it has to lower down its television production.
Statement e is FALSE.
-- The statement is false as the points that lies outside the curve can be attained with the resources and technology that are already existing if the trade occurs with the outside producer. The trade makes it enable to consume outside the production possibility frontier. So with trade and specialization, New Bispo are able to consume automobiles as well as television as they can operate beyond the PPC frontier.

(b) Find the monthly payment that they would have to make into an ordinary annuity to obtain the future value found in part (a) if their money earns 9 % and the term is twenty years.
Answer:
(a) The amount needed is $192,000.
(b) The monthly payment is $150.98.
Explanation:
Note: There are errors in this question. The correct question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Susan and Bill Stamp want to set up a TDA that will generate sufficient interest at maturity to meet their living expenses, which they project to be $1,200 per month. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)
(a) Find the amount needed at maturity to generate $1,200 per month interest, if they can get 7.25% interest compounded monthly.
(b) Find the monthly payment that they would have to make into an ordinary annuity to obtain the future value found in part (a) if their money earns 9.75% and the term is twenty years.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
(a) Find the amount needed at maturity to generate $1,200 per month interest, if they can get 7.25% interest compounded monthly.
This can be calculated using the following future value formula:
FV = P / i ........................... (1)
Where;
FV = Amount needed at maturity = ?
P = Monthly payment or amount to generate monthly = $1,200
i = monthly interest rate = Annual interest rate / 12 = 7.25% / 12 = 0.075 / 12 = 0.00625
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $1,200 / 0.00625 = $192,000
Therefore, the amount needed is $192,000.
(b) Find the monthly payment that they would have to make into an ordinary annuity to obtain the future value found in part (a) if their money earns 9.75% and the term is twenty years.
This can be calculated using the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (2)
Where,
FV = Future value = $192,000
M = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = 9.75% / 12 = 0.0975 / 12 = 0.008125
n = number of months = 25 years * Number of months in a year = 25 * 12 = 300
Substituting the values into equation (2) and solve for M, we have:
$192,000 = M * (((1 + 0.008125)^300 - 1) / 0.008125)
$192,000 = M * 1271.65920375075
M = $192,000 / 1271.65920375075
M = $150.98
Therefore, the monthly payment is $150.98.

Which of the following is an example of Brazil undertaking importing?
a.Brazil buys made-in-China products to sell in its domestic market.
b.China buys raw materials such as iron ore from Brazil.
c.Brazilian companies invest heavily in the housing industry in the country.
d.Chinese companies invest in Brazilian industry.
A good example of Brazil undertaking importation is A. Brazil buys made-in-China products.
The products are made in China and imported into Brazil by businesses, institutions, and individuals resident in Brazil.
Importation does not involve the following options:
Option b, whereby "China buys raw materials such as iron ore from Brazil." For Brazil, this is an export. Option c, whereby "Brazilian companies invest heavily in the housing industry in the country." This is domestic investment for Brazil. Option d, whereby "Chinese companies invest in Brazilian industry." This is known Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).Thus, when Brazilian persons import products and services from another country, they are classified as imports and not exports or domestic investments.

Adriana and Belen are partners who share income in the ratio of 3:2 and have capital balances of $50,000 and $90,000 at the time they decide to terminate the partnership. After all noncash assets are sold and all liabilities are paid, there is a cash balance of $90,000. How much cash should be distributed to Adriana
Answer:
$54,000
Explanation:
First, we add the ratios together to determine the total parts:
3+2= 5
Next, we divide the cash balance of $90,000 by the total parts:
$90,000/5 = $18,000
To find the amount of cash distributed to Adriana we multiply by her ratio:
5*18,000 = $54,000.
Mohawk Machining, which uses a process-costing system, adds material at the beginning of production and incurs conversion cost evenly throughout manufacturing. The following selected information was taken from the company's accounting records: Total equivalent units of materials: 8,000 Total equivalent units of conversion: 7,400 Units started and completed during the period: 6,500 On the basis of this information, the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:_____.
A- 80%.
B- 70%.
C- 60%. - 40%.
D- some other percentage not listed above.
Answer:
C. 60%
Explanation:
Equivalent unit of Materials = 8,000.00
Equivalent unit of Conversion = 7,400.00
Units started and completed = 6,500.00
Since Materials are entered in the beginning it means that out of 8000 Units of Materials 6500 units are in Units started and completed and remaining 1500 Units are in Closing inventory. It also means that 1500 units are in Closing Inventory of Conversion and Equivalent production of conversion part of 1500 Units are 900 Units (7400-6500).
Let % Completion be x
X% of 1500 = 900
X = 900*100/1500
X = 60%.

True
False
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
Patent can be defined as the exclusive or sole right granted to an inventor by a sovereign authority such as a government, which enables him or her to manufacture, use, or sell an invention for a specific period of time.
Generally, patents are used on innovation for products that are manufactured through the application of various technologies.
Basically, the three (3) main ways to protect an intellectual property is to employ the use of trademarks, copyright and patents.
In this scenario, Because your patented Gidgit is starting to gain attention and investors are starting to show interest, the executive committee is considering becoming a publicly held company.
Since Gidgit is patented it cannot be sold to the government because it is a registered intellectual property that cannot be used or sold without the approval or consent of the owner.

Buying Cost of House = $320000
Interest rate = 7%
Annual Mortgage Payment = $25525.8
Now, we are required to calculate the time period required to pay off the mortgage.
Solution:
Data Given:
Increase in annual payment percentage = 5%
So,
Formula:
P = C[tex]e^{A-i}[/tex] + C[tex]e^{2(A-i)}[/tex] + C[tex]e^{3(A-i)}[/tex] + ........ + C[tex]e^{n(A-i)}[/tex]
Where,
P = Buying Cost of House = $320000
i = interest rate = 7% = 0.07
A = Increase in annual payment percentage = 5% = 0.05
C = Annual Mortgage Payment = $25525.8
P = C[tex]e^{A-i}[/tex] + C[tex]e^{2(A-i)}[/tex] + C[tex]e^{3(A-i)}[/tex] + ........ + C[tex]e^{n(A-i)}[/tex]
In this formula, we have all the required things expect the value of n, which we have to calculate.
n = Time period required to pay the mortgage.
So,
$320000 = 25525.8 [tex]e^{0.05 - 0.07}[/tex] + 25525.8 [tex]e^{2(0.05 - 0.07)}[/tex] + 25525.8 [tex]e^{3(0.05 - 0.07)}[/tex] + ..... + 25525.8 [tex]e^{n(0.05 - 0.07)}[/tex]
Taking 25525.8 common,
320000 = 25525.8 ( [tex]e^{-0.02}[/tex] + [tex]e^{-0.04}[/tex] + [tex]e^{-0.06}[/tex] + .... + [tex]e^{-0.02n}[/tex] )
320000/25525.8 = ( [tex]e^{-0.02}[/tex] + [tex]e^{-0.04}[/tex] + [tex]e^{-0.06}[/tex] + .... + [tex]e^{-0.02n}[/tex] )
12.536 = ( [tex]e^{-0.02}[/tex] + [tex]e^{-0.04}[/tex] + [tex]e^{-0.06}[/tex] + .... + [tex]e^{-0.02n}[/tex] )
Taking e common:
12.536 = [tex]e^{-0.02 -0.04 - 0.06 + .... -0.02n}[/tex]
Taking Ln to solve for n, we get:
n = 17.89
n ≈ 18
n = 18 years
Hence, Time period required to pay off the mortgage = 18 years
Aquatic Equipment Corporation decided to switch from the LIFO method of costing inventories to the FIFO method at the beginning of 2018. The inventory as reported at the end of 2017 using LIFO would have been $70,000 higher using FIFO. Retained earnings at the end of 2017 was reported as $880,000 (reflecting the LIFO method). The tax rate is 34%.
Required:
1. Calculate the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change (beginning of 2013) as it would have been reported if FIFO had been used in prior years.
2. Prepare the journal entry at the beginning of 2013 to record the change in accounting principle. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
1. Adjusted net income = Ending inventory higher by amount * (1-Tax rate) = $70,000*(1-34%) = $70,000 * 66% = $46,200
Details Amount
Beginning retained earnings for the year 2017 $880,000
Add: Adjusted net income $46,200
Beginning adjusted retained earnings for year 2017 $926,200
2. Tax payable = Inventory * Tax rate = $70,000*34% = $23,800
Date Account Titles and Explanation Debit Credit
Inventory $70,000
Retained earnings $46,200
Tax payable $23,800

The basic economic questions that any provider of goods must ask are:
• What will be produced?
• Who will produce it?
• For whom will it be produced?
In which type of economy are these decisions made solely by the
government?
A. Mixed
B. Free
C. Command
D. Traditional
Answer:
C. Command
Explanation:
In a command economy, the government owns and controls all the factors of production. All the factors of production are owned and controlled by the government. The government does all the productions through its agencies.
The government prepares central economic plans that guide the country's economic activities. The central plans indicate what goods and services will be produced, their quantities, and prices. The plans also dictate how distributions will be done in the country.

a. Suppose that this community produces 3 pounds of fish and 20 pounds of berries. If it decides to gather more berries, it faces a tradeoff.
b. When this community produces 4 pounds of fish and 12 pounds of berries it faces a tradeoff, but it is inefficient.
c. Suppose that this community produces 5 pounds of fish and 0 pounds of berries. If it decides to gather some berries, it will get a free lunch.
d. If this community produces 3 pounds of fish and 22 pounds of berries, production is efficient but to produce more fish it faces a tradeoff.
Answer:
d. If this community produces 3 pounds of fish and 22 pounds of berries, production is efficient but to produce more fish it faces a tradeoff.
TRUE, IF THEY WANT TO PRODUCE MORE FISH, THEY WILL PRODUCE LESS BERRIES
Explanation:
a. Suppose that this community produces 3 pounds of fish and 20 pounds of berries. If it decides to gather more berries, it faces a tradeoff.
FALSE, THEY CAN GATHER 2 MORE POUNDS OF BERRIES WITHOUT AFFECTING FISH
