Hudson Corp. operates several factories that manufacture medical equipment. The factories have a historical cost of $200 million. Near the end of the company’s fiscal year, a change in business climate related to a competitor’s innovative products indicated to Hudson’s management that the $170 million carrying amount of the assets of one of Hudson’s factories may not be recoverable. Management identified cash flows from this factory and estimated that the undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining useful life of the factory would be $150 million. The fair value of the factory’s assets is reliably estimated to be $135 million. The change in business climate requires investigation of possible impairment. Which of the following amounts is the impairment loss?
A) $15 million.
B) $20 million.
C) $35 million.
D) $65 million.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C) $35 million.

Explanation:

The computation of the impairment loss is shown below:

= Carrying amount of the assets - fair value of the factory assets

= $170 million - $135 million

= $35 million

Since the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset so the impairment loss is recorded and hence the same is to be considered.

Hence, the correct option is c.

Answers

Answer:

865,150  shares  

Explanation:

The calculation of shares for diluted earning per share is shown below:-

Shares for diluted earning per share = Outstanding shares + Issued shares + Stock option

= 837,000 + (40,600 × 6 ÷ 12) + ((31,400 - (31,400 × $15 ÷ $20)

= 837,000 + 20,300 + 7,850

= 865,150  shares

How many books must the publisher produce and sell so that the production costs will equal the money from sales

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 2,984 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The one-time fixed costs will total 49982. The variable costs will be $8.50 per book. The publisher will sell the finished product to bookstores for 25.25 per book

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 49,982/ (25.25 - 8.5)

Break-even point in units= 2,984 units

Hence, Seneca exhibited a promissory fraud because he is aware that all of the painter-employees are busy for the next two months and really does not intend to paint Fran’s house.

Becker Industries is considering an all equity capital structure against one with both debt and equity. The all equity capital structure would consist of 30,000 shares of stock. The debt and equity option would consist of 15,000 shares of stock plus $255,000 of debt with an interest rate of 8 percent. What is the break-even level of earnings before interest and taxes between these two options

Answers

Answer:

The break-even level of earnings before interest and taxes is $47,200

Explanation:

EBIT = Earnings before interest and taxes

EPS = Earnings per share

I = interest

n = number of equity shares

n1, n2 = number of equity shares outstanding after adopting financing plans 1 and 2

n1=30,000

n2= 15,000

Break-even EBIT level   is the indifferent point where EPS under alternative financing plan is the same.

Mathematically, the break-even EBIT level is:   EBIT/ n1 = (EBIT - I ) / n2

EBIT/30,000 =(EBIT -295,000 x 8%/ 15,000)  

EBIT/2 = EBIT - 23,600

2*EBIT - 23,600 x 2 = EBIT

2EBIT - EBIT= 47,200

EBIT= $47,200

In an inert organizational culture, poor working relationships frequently develop between the organization and its employees. the organization tries to avoid layoffs. the organization emphasizes long-term employment. employees regularly receive rewards for their performance. values and norms help the organization build momentum.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:  the organization emphasizes long-term employment.

Explanation:

An inert organizational culture is one that does not seek to adapt to new work processes and trends whose objective is to innovate and facilitate work and processes.

They are usually organizations whose culture is focused on more inflexible and rigid internal policies, whose focus is on the establishment of processes and does not focus on the relationships and integration of workers.

This type of organization focuses on long-term employment, which can culminate in the lack of innovation in personnel, ideas, processes and the improvement of total quality.

In an inert organizational culture, poor working relationships frequently develop between the organization and its employees the organization emphasizes long-term employment. Thus, option B is correct.

An organizational culture that is inert does not attempt to change in response to emerging trends and work processes with the aim of innovating and streamlining work and procedures.

They are often businesses whose internal rules are more strict and inflexible, whose emphasis is on establishing procedures rather than on fostering connections and worker integration.

Long-term employment is the main focus of this kind of organization, which can lead to a lack of innovation in staff, concepts, procedures, and overall quality.
