Answer:
See the five answers below.
Explanation:
The roommates are debating how many movies they should watch.
This is the constraint; given that they have to pay to rent each movie.
PART (A)
Since their dormitory room is the 'cinema', meaning that it's just going to be 4 of them and a private good that they'll pay for; then the showing of a movie is not a public good!
Public goods are those general utilities usually provided by governments, for their citizens; e.g. public defense, clean drinking water, good roads, etcetera.
PART (B)
Given the 'willingness to pay' constraint, we need to find the optimal number of movies they can watch. It costs $8 to rent a movie, no matter how interesting it is or how much satisfaction the viewers derive from it. So the cost of the 1st film = the cost of the 2nd film = the cost of the 3rd film = the cost of the 4th film = the cost of the 5th film.
To get the total amount they're willing to pay for all 5 movies, sum up!
(10+9+6+3) + (9+7+4+2) + (8+5+2+1) + (7+3+0+0) + (6+1+0+0)
KEY: This arrangement should remind you of the law of diminishing marginal utility. The more movies they watch in one sitting or over a weekend, the less satisfaction they derive from the intangible commodity. Hence, the less they are willing to pay for more of the commodity.
So the sum is 28 + 22 + 16 + 10 + 7 = 83
Now to get the number of movies they should rent if they wish to maximize their total spending, divide the total willingness to pay by the cost for a movie:
83/8 = 10.375
Rounding up to the nearest whole number or in reality, that's 10 movies.
PART (C)
Suppose the roommates choose to rent this optimal number of movies - which is higher than the intended number of movies - and then split the cost equally, what will each roommate pay?
Here, we will use the approximated value 10.
10movies x $8 = $80
Splitting the cost equally, divide by 4
$80 ÷ 4 = $20
This figure is just in obedience to the question's requirements which says the bill must be shared equally. In actual fact, some of the four roommates don't have a purchasing power or willingness that is up to $20! That's Felix and Larry.
PART (D)
Complete the given table by inputing each roommate's total willingness to pay for the 5 movies and the surplus each person obtains from watching the movies. Remember to assume that Van is the same person as Raphael.
Also, total cost for 5 movies is 8 x 5 = $40
Dividing this by 4, you have $10 per roommate. So a surplus would be the excess of each roommate's TWTP over $10.
TWTP($) CS($)
VAN 40 30
CARLOS 25 15
FELIX 12 2
LARRY 6 -4
PART (E)
If the cost is divided up based on the benefits (remember how the price for movie was static despite the movie and satisfaction received by each viewer? That's about to change) or satisfaction each roommate receives, the practical problem with this 'solution' is that each roommate has an incentive to reduce the value of the movies to him; and this can only be measured by the efficient number (the number that rates the value each roommate derives from each movie). In this case, the incentive is the window given to each roommate to 'not tell the truth' about their level of satisfaction from watching each movie, because that would mean a higher bill for the individual.

Frantic Fast Foods had earnings after taxes of $430,000 in 20X1 with 345,000 shares outstanding. On January 1, 20X2, the firm issued 34,000 new shares. Because of the proceeds from these new shares and other operating improvements, earnings after taxes increased by 23 percent.
Required:
a. Compute earnings per share for the year 20X1. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. Compute earnings per share for the year 20X2. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:earnings per share for the year 20X1= $1.25 per share
earnings per share for the year 20X2 = 1.40
Explanation:
Earning per share is calculated as = Earning after taxes ÷ Shares outstanding
Therefore, earnings per share for the year 20X1.
= $430,000 ÷345,000 shares
= $1.25 per share
2. In the next year,there was a change in earnings after tax by 23 percent and an increase in shares by 34,000,
Therefore, we have earnings per share for the year 20X2 as
= ($430,000 × 1.23) ÷ ( 345,000 + 34,000)
=528,900/379000
=1.3955 rounded to 1.40
Ray acquired an activity several years ago, and in the current year, it generates a loss of $50,000. Ray has AGI of $140,000 before considering the loss from the activity.
If the activity is a bakery and Ray is not a material participant, what is his AGI?
Answer:
adjusted gross income should be $140,000
Explanation:
The computation of the adjusted gross income is given below:
Given that
There is the loss of $50,000
And, the adjusted gross income prior considering the loss should be $140,000
So here $50,000 loss should be suspended under the rule of the passive loss as ray should not be the material participant
Therefore adjusted gross income should be $140,000

Selma has developed and patented a new process for recycling discarded tires. A multinational corporation has expressed an interest in buying her company in order to gain access to the technology and keep it exclusively for itself. Should Selma sell her company, the buyer will have acquired technology via
Answer:
acquisition of the technology owner
Explanation:
In the given scenario a multinational corporation has expressed an interest in buying her company in order to gain access to her technology (a new process for recycling discarded tire).
The corporation is trying to obtain this technology by acquisition of the technology owner.
When they purchase Selma's company they will automatically own the technology.
Another method that can be used to get the technology would have been through liscensing. Where they will get permission to use the technology with the permission of the owner.

A downside to absorption costing is: ____________
a. not including fixed manufacturing overhead in the cost of the product
b. that it is not really useful for managerial decisions
c. that it is not allowable under GAAP
d. that it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis
Answer: that it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis
Explanation:
Absorption costing refers to the managerial accounting method that is used for capturing all the costs that are associated with the manufacturing of a product. In this case, the direct costs and the indirect costs are all accounted for through the use of this method.
Some of the downside to absorption costing include the fact that it isn't
helpful in a scenario whereby improvement in the financial and operational efficiency is to be analysed. Also, the true reflection of the profit of a business may not be given and it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis.
Therefore, the correct option is D.
Waterway Industries was organized on January 1, 2021. During its first year, the corporation issued 2,400 shares of $50 par value preferred stock and 150,000 shares of $10 par value common stock. At December 31, the company declared the following cash dividends: 2021, $5,800; 2022, $13,100; and 2023, $28,800.
Required:
Show the allocation of dividends to each class of stock, assuming the preferred stock dividend is 5% and noncumulative.
Answer:
Preferred dividend is noncumulative which means that it will not accrue if company was unable to pay in any period.
Dividends in 2021
Preferred dividends:
= Number of preferred shares * par value * dividend percentage
= 2,400 * 50 * 5%
= $6,000
Dividends of $5,800 were declared which is not enough to cover even preferred shares so preferred shares will take all the dividends.
Preferred share dividends = $5,800
Common share dividends = $0
Dividends in 2022:
Preferred dividends = $6,000
Common dividends:
= Declared dividends - Preferred dividends
= 13,100 - 6,000
= $7,100
Dividends in 2023:
Preferred dividends = $6,000
Common dividends:
= Declared dividends - Preferred dividends
= 28,800 - 6,000
= $22,800
You have $100,000 to invest in a portfolio containing Stock X and Stock Y. Your goal is to create a portfolio that has an expected return of 12.1 percent. Stock X has an expected return of 10.28 percent and a beta of 1.20, and Stock Y has an expected return of 7.52 percent and a beta of .80.
a. How much money will you invest in Stock Y? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
b. What is the beta of your portfolio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 3 decimal places, e.g., 32.161.)
a. Investment in Stock Y
b. Portfolio beta
Answer:
a. Amount to invest in Y
The amount that will be invested in Stock Y should be such that the expected return of the portfolio would equal 12.1%.
This would be determined by the weights of the stock.
Assume the weight to be invested in X is x.
Portfolio return = (weight of X * Return of X) + (weight of Y * Return of Y)
12.1% = (x * 10.28%) + ( (1 - x) * 7.52%)
0.121 = 0.1028x + 0.0752 - 0.0752x
0.121 - 0.0752 = 0.1028x - 0.0752x
0.0458 = 0.0276x
x = 0.0458 / 0.0276
= 1.6594
Weight in stock Y:
= 1 - 1.6594
= -0.6594
Amount to invest in Y:
= -0.6594 * 100,000
= -$65,940
b. Portfolio beta
It will be a weighted average of the betas of the two stocks:
= (Weight of stock X * Stock X Beta) + ( Weight of stock Y * Stock Y beta)
= (1.6594 * 1.20) + (-0.6594 * 0.80)
= 1.46
The CEO of Fly Corporation decides to change an accounting method at the end of the current year. The change results in reported profits increasing by 5%, but the company's cash flows are not changed. If capital markets are efficient, then what would happen to the company stock price? Justify your answer with logical arguments
Answer:
Fly Corporation
The stock price will not be affected by the accounting change.
Explanation:
This opinion is based on the assumption that the capital markets are efficient. Therefore, the stock's market price will reflect all available and relevant information. Since all the necessary information is already incorporated into the stock price, the CEO of Fly Corporation cannot beat the market by the change in accounting method, and the stock price will not be undervalued or overvalued. Moreover, the change in accounting method only shifts the timing for reporting income.

Tangerine, Inc. provides the following data: Surround, Inc. Comparative Balance Sheet Dec. 31, 20X9 Assets Current Assets: Cash and Cash Equivalents $29,000 Account Receivable, Net 31,000 Merchandise Inventory 53,000 Total Current Assets $113,000 Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net 120,000 Total Assets $233,000 Liabilities Current Liabilities: Accounts Payable $4000 Notes Payable 3000 Total Current Liabilities $7000 Long-term Liabilities 84,000 Total Liabilities $91,000 Stockholders' Equity Common Stock $30,000 Retained Earnings 112,000 Total Stockholders' Equity $142,000 Total Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity $233,000 Calculate the debt to equity ratio.
Answer:
The debt to equity ratio is 0.64.
Explanation:
The debt to equity ratio can be calculated using the following formula:
Debt to equity ratio = Total Liabilities / Stockholders' Equity ……………………. (1)
Where:
Total Liabilities = $91,000
Stockholders' Equity = $142,000
Substitute the relevant data into equation (1), we have:
Debt to equity ratio = $91,000 / $142,000 = 0.64
Therefore, the debt to equity ratio is 0.64.
Bank A offers to lend you money at 10 percent compounded monthly, Bank B at 11 percent compounded quarterly, and Bank C at 12 percent compounded annually. Calculate the effective rates and state which bank offers the lowest cost of borrowed capital.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is given below:
For Bank A,
Effective annual rate is
= (1 + 0.10 ÷ 12)^12 - 1
= 10.47%
For Bank B,
Effective annual rate is
= (1 + 0.11 ÷ 4)^4 - 1
= 11.46%
And,
For Bank C,
Effective annual rate = 12%
Therefore, Bank A is best to borrow at lowest effective annual rate
Enviro Company issues 10.50%, 10-year bonds with a par value of $430,000 and semiannual interest payments. On the issue date, the annual market rate for these bonds is 7.50%, which implies a selling price of 127.875. The straight-line method is used to allocate interest expense. 1. Using the implied selling price of 127.875. what are the issuer’s cash proceeds from issuance of these bonds? 2. What total amount of bond interest expense will be recognized over the life of these bonds? 3. What is the amount of bond interest expense recorded on the first interest payment date?
Answer:
1.
549,862.5
2.
$331,637.5
3.
$16,581.87
Explanation:
1.
Cash proceeds = Par Value of the bond x Price ratio to par value
Cash proceeds = $430,000 x 127.875%
Cash proceeds = $549,862.5
2.
Bond Interest expense = Total Coupon payment - Premium on bond
Bond Interest expense = ( $430,000 x 10.50% x 10 ) - ( $549,862.5 - $430,000 )
Bond Interest expense = $451,500 - $119,862.5
Bond Interest expense = $331,637.5
3.
Bond Interest expense = Coupon Payment - Premium on Bond amortization
Bond Interest expense = ( $430,000 x 10.5% x 6/12 ) - ( ( $549,862.5 - $430,000 ) / ( 10 x 2 ) )
Bond Interest expense = $22,575 - $5,993.13
Bond Interest expense = $16,581.87
A project is expected to generate annual revenues of $132,100, with variable costs of $80,200, and fixed costs of $20,700. The annual depreciation is $4,750 and the tax rate is 35 percent. What is the annual operating cash flow
Answer:
$21,943
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the annual operating cash flow
Using this formula
Operating Cash Flow =(Annual Revenue-Variable costs - Fixed costs)×(1-Tax rate)+( Annual depreciation×Tax rate )
Let plug in the formula
Operating Cash Flow =[ ($132,100 - $80,200 - $20,700) x (1 - 0.35)]+ ($4,750 x 0.35)
Operating Cash Flow =
Operating Cash Flow =($31,200×0.65)+$1,663
Operating Cash Flow =$20,280+$1,663
Operating Cash Flow =$21,943
Therefore the annual operating cash flow is $21,943

So as per the given situation, the option b is correct
And, the rest of the options should be considered wrong
The required volume of output to produce the motors will not require any incremental fixed overhead. Incremental variable overhead cost is $21 per motor. What is the effect on income if Derby decides to make the motors
Answer: Income will increase by $16 per unit
Explanation:
Your question isn't complete but the completed question was gotten online and would be used in answering the question accordingly.
The effect on income if Derby decides to make the motors will be calculated thus:
In-house:
Direct material = 38
Direct labor = 50
Overhead (Incremental) = 21
Total variable cost = 109
Outside:
Cost of supply = 125
Therefore, the income per unit will increase by (125 - 109) = 16.

The nation of Ectenia has 20 competitive apple orchards, which sell apples at the world price of $2 per apple. The following equations describe the production function and the marginal product of labor in each orchard:
Q= 100L -L^2
MPL 100-2L
where Q s the number of apples produced in a day, L s the number of workers, and MPL is the marginal product of labor. Now, suppose the price of apples is back at $2 per apple, but a hurricane destroys half the orchards so only 10 orchards remain. Recall that each orchard's labor demand as a function of the daily wage is L 50-0.25W.
Required:
What is the market's labor demand?
The market's labor demand is L=500−2.5W
Since labor demand as a function of the daily wage is L 50-0.25W.
Hence,
The individual labor demand curve is: L=50−0.25W
Now let determine The market labor demand curve
The market's labor demand is :
L=10(50−0.25W)
L=500−2.5W
Inconclusion The market's labor demand is L=500−2.5W

During the month of April, 304,000 cans were produced using 1,250,000 ounces of aluminum. The actual cost of aluminum was $0.21 per ounce and the standard price was $0.12 per ounce. There are no beginning or ending inventories of aluminum. Calculate the materials price and usage variances using the columnar and formula approaches. Enter amounts as positive numbers and select Favorable or Unfavorable.
Answer:
Material Price Variance : $112,500 Unfavorable
Material Quantity Variance : 3,168 Favorable
Explanation:
Material Quantity Variance:
Standard quantity : 304,000 cans * 4.4 ounces = 1,337,600
Actual Quantity used : 1,311,200
Variance : 26,400 * $0.12 = $3,168 Favorable
Material Price Variance:
Standard Price : [Standard Price * Actual usage]
[$0.12 * 1,250,000] = $150,000
Actual Price [Actual Price * Actual Usage]
[$0.21 * 1,250,000] = $262,500

Abigail has an inheritance tax lien placed on all of her property. What kind of a lien is it?
Answer:
A general lien is one placed against any and all real and personal property owned by a particular debtor. An example is an inheritance tax lien placed against all property owned by the heir. A specific lien attaches to a single item of real or personal property, and does not affect other property owned by the debtor.
Explanation:
Inheritance tax lien is a kind of general lien.
What is Inheritance tax lien?A percentage of a decedent's estate's value that is distributed to beneficiaries by will, heirs by intestacy, and transferees by operation of law is subject to inheritance tax. Depending on the heir's status relative to the decedent, there are different tax rates. Payments for inheritance taxes are due at the time of the decedent's death and become past due nine months afterwards. A 5% rebate is permitted if inheritance tax is paid within three months of the decedent's passing. The Tax Law encumbers the decedent's real estate upon death to guarantee the payment of any estate taxes owed. The decedent's death date serves as the effective date of the inheritance tax lien. For all dates of death, a release of lien is used unless the decedent and the surviving spouse were the only joint tenants of real estate.
The value of the property has no bearing on whether a release of lien is necessary.
What is general lien?A general lien is the right of one person to keep any things or property that belong to another person that are in his possession until the promise or duty is satisfied.
It is the ability to keep someone else's property as payment for an overall account balance.
Brokers of insurance, bankers, factors, and High Court lawyers can all get a general lien. Without an express agreement to the contrary, the general lien of bankers, factors, wharfinger, attorneys, and policy brokers retains as a security for the overall balance of the account and any items that are to be bailed to them.
Service providers typically receive the broad lien privilege. These identification service providers reserve the right to keep the items that are given to them as bail in order to collect the overall balance of money that is owed by their client. This specific Section is very eager to restrict the use of general liens by stating that no one has the right to assert a general lien unless the parties have expressly provided for it in their contract.

QS 8-7 Computing revised depreciation LO C2 On January 1, the Matthews Band pays $65,800 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for four years and after four years it can sell the equipment for $2,000. Matthews Band uses straight-line depreciation but realizes at the start of the second year that this equipment will last only a total of three years. The salvage value is not changed. Compute the revised depreciation for both the second and third years.
Answer:
$23,925 for both the second and third years
Explanation:
Depreciation is the systemic recognition of the cost of an asset in the profit or loss statement. It is an expense.
Depreciation may be computed on a straight line basis as
Depreciation = (cost - salvage value)/estimated useful life
Given that Matthews Band pays $65,800 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for four years and after four years it can sell the equipment for $2,000
Depreciation in the first year of use
= ($65,800 - $2,000)/4
= $15,950
The carrying amount at the start of the second year
= $65,800 - $15,950
= $49,850
Depreciation for the second year and 3rd year after the company realizes that this equipment will last only a total of three years
= ($49,850 - $2,000)/2
= $47,850/2
= $23,925
Trent Inc. needs an additional worker on a multiyear project. It could hire an employee for a $88,000 annual salary. Alternatively, it could engage an independent contractor for a $95,000 annual fee. Trent's income tax rate is 21 percent. Required: Compute the annual after-tax cost of each option and indicate which minimizes the after-tax cost of obtaining the worker
Answer: The cheaper cost is to hire an additional worker.
Explanation:
Employee:
With an employee, Trent is going to have to pay payroll taxes.
After-tax cost of hiring employee:
= Salary * (1 + Payroll tax)
= 88,000 * ( 1 + 7.5%)
= $94,600
The subtract the income tax from this amount:
= 94,600 * ( 1 - 21%)
= $74,734
Contractor:
With a contractor, only the marginal income tax is accounted for:
= 95,000 * (1 - 21%)
= $75,050
The cheaper cost is to hire an additional worker.
