Answer:
a. Lance's Tax basis in his LLC interest
= Basis of investment property + Shares in LLC debt
= $312,500 + ($380,000 * 70%)
= $312,500 + $266,000
= $578,500
Therefore, LLC common debt obligation treated as non-recourse debt, lance income allocation ratio is used to allocate a share of LLC debt to him
b. Lance holding period in his interest is 5 years. The holding period of the contributed assets "tacks onto" his partnership interest because Lance contributed a capital asset
c. Cloud Peak's basis in the contributed property is $312,500. Also, the carryover basis would be taken by the LLC in the contributed property
d. Cloud's Peak holding period in the contributed property is 3 years

Slack Inc. borrowed $400,000 on April 1. The note requires interest at 12% and principal to be paid in one year. How much interest is recognized for the period from April 1 to December 31? a. $0. b. $48,000. c. $32,000. d. $36,000
Answer:
D.$36,000
Explanation:
Calculation for How much interest is recognized for the period from April 1 to December 31
First step is to find the 12% of the amount that was borrowed which is $400,000
$400,000×12%
=$48,000
Now let calculate for the amount of interest that is recognized from April 1 to December 31
Interest =$48,000×3/12
Interest =$12,000
Hence,
Interest =$48,000-$12,000
Interest=$36,000
Therefore the amount of interest that is recognized from April 1 to December 31 will be $36,000
On January 1, Parson Freight Company issues 9.0%, 10-year bonds with a par value of $3,400,000. The bonds pay interest semiannually. The market rate of interest is 10.0% and the bond selling price was $3,168,967. The bond issuance should be recorded as:
Answer:
January 1
Cash $3168967 Dr
Discount on Bonds Payable $231033
Bonds Payable $3400000 Cr
Explanation:
The issuance of bond on January 1 is at a discount as the coupon rate paid by the bond is less than the market interest rate. In such case the bond is issued at a lower value than its par/face value. The discount on bonds payable is the difference between the face value and the cash received on issuance.
The entry to record the issues include a debit to cash account as cash is received, a debit to the discount on bonds payable account for the amount of discount and a credit to bonds payable account as liability is created as a result of the issuance of the bonds.
Discount = 3400000 - 3168967 = 231033
The following information pertains to J Company's outstanding stock for 2021:
Common stock, $1 par
Shares outstanding, 1/1/2021 10,000
2 for 1 stock split, 4/1/2021 10,000
Shares issued, 7/1/2021 5,000
Preferred stock, $100 par, 7% cumulative
Shares outstanding, 1/1/2021 4,000
What is the number of shares J should use to calculate 2018 basic earnings per share?
a. 20,000.
b. 22,500.
c. 25,000 .
d. 27,000.
Answer: b. 22,500
Explanation:
J should use the total number of outstanding common stock at end of year to calculate 2018 basic earnings.
As a result of the Stock-split, the shares are split into 2 for 1.
There were 10,000 shares split so;
= 10,000 * 2
= 20,000
On the 1st of July, 5,000 shares were issued. This means that up till December 2021, the stock was outstanding for 6 months.
This will reflected by;
= 5,000 * 6/12
= 2,500 shares
Total shares = 20,000 + 2,500
= 22,500 shares
Product V72 sells for $20 per unit as is, but if enhanced it can be sold for $25 per unit. The enhancement process will cost $52,000 for 12,000 units. If the 12,000 units of Product V72 are sold as is without further processing, the company:
Answer:
It will incur an Opportunity cost of $8,000.
Explanation:
It will incur the opportunity cost of $8000 because the additional unit produces by the company then the additional revenue that is generated will be equal to the amount (25 - 20) x 12,000 = 60,000. Since the additional cost, that incurs for the production of 12000 units is 52000. Therefore the profit earned is $8000.
So if the company does not produce it then it will lose the profit of $8000.

Answer:
A.Maximum possible subscription price $42 per shares
Minimum price $0
B.Number of new shares $500,000
Numbers of right needed 5.8
C.Ex-rights price $40.82
Value of a right $1.18
D.Portfolio value before the right offer $84,000
Portfolio value after the right offer $84,000
Explanation:
A.
The maximum possible subscription price based on the information given will be $42 per Shares
The minimum price will be anything that is greater or higher that $0
B. Calculation for how many shares must be sold
Using this formula
Number of new shares =Journal of Financial Excess amount /Subscription price per share
Let plug in the formula
Number of new shares=$17,000,000/ $34 per share
Number of new shares=$500,000
Calculation for how many rights will it take to buy one share
Using this formula
Numbers of right needed=Shares Outstanding/Number of new Shares
Let plug in the formula
Numbers of right needed=$2,900,000/$500,000
Numbers of right needed=5.8
C. Calculation for the ex-rights price
Using this formula
Ex-rights price=(Numbers of right needed*Maximum possible subscription price +Subscription price per share)/(Numbers of right needed+ One shares)
Let plug in the formula
Ex-rights price=(5.8*$42+$34)/(5.8+1)
Ex-rights price=$277.6/6.8
Ex-rights price=$40.82
Calculation for the value of a right
Using this formula
Value of a right =maximum possible subscription price-Ex-rights price
Let plug in the formula
Value of a right=$42-$40.82
Value of a right=$1.18
D. Calculation for What is his portfolio value before the right offer
Using this formula
Portfolio value before the right offer= Shareholders Shares *Maximum possible subscription price
Let plug in the formula
Portfolio value before the right offer=2,000*42
Portfolio value before the right offer=$84,000
Calculation for What is his portfolio value after the right offer
Using this formula
Portfolio value after the right offer=(Shareholders Shares*Ex-rights price) +(Shareholders Shares*Value of a right)
Let plug in the formula
Portfolio value after the right offer=(2,000*40.82)+(2,000*1.18)
Portfolio value after the right offer=$81,640+$2,360
Portfolio value after the right offer=$84,000
Lott Company uses a job order cost system and applies overhead to production on the basis of direct labor costs. On January 1, 2020, Job 50 was the only job in process. The costs incurred prior to January 1 on this job were as follows: direct materials $21,200, direct labor $12,720, and manufacturing overhead $16,960. As of January 1, Job 49 had been completed at a cost of $95,400 and was part of finished goods inventory. There was a $15,900 balance in the Raw Materials Inventory account.
During the month of January, Lott Company began production on Jobs 51 and 52, and completed Jobs 50 and 51. Jobs 49 and 50 were also sold on account during the month for $129,320 and $167,480, respectively. The following additional events occurred during the month.
1. Purchased additional raw materials of $95,400 on account.

Job No. Direct Materials Direct Labor
50 $10,600 $5,300
51 41,340 26,500
52 31,800 21,200
Calculate the predetermined overhead rate for 2020, assuming Lott Company estimates total manufacturing overhead costs of $ 882,000, direct labor costs of $735,000, and direct labor hours of 21,000 for the year.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.2 per direct labor dollar
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Company estimates total manufacturing overhead costs of $882,000 and, direct labor costs of $735,000
To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 882,000/735,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.2 per direct labor dollar
Henry Crouch's law office has traditionally ordered ink refills 50 units at a time. The firm estimates that carrying cost is 35% of the $12 unit cost and that annual demand is about 235 units per year. The assumptions of the basic EOQ model are thought to apply. For what value of ordering cost would its action be optimal?
Answer:
ordering costs = $22.34
Explanation:
economic order quantity (EOQ) = √(2SD / H)
D = annual demand = 235H = holding cost = 35% x $12 = $4.20S = cost per order = ?EOQ = 5050 = √[(2 x S x 235) / $4.20]
2,500 = (2 x S x 235) / $4.20
$10,500 = 2 x S x 235
S = $10,500 / (2 x 235) = $10,500 / 470 = $22.34

If you were given a personality test as part of an employment application process, would you answer the questions honestly or would you attempt to answer the questions based upon your image of "correct" way to answer? what implications does your response has for the validity of personality testing?
Explanation:
Personality tests are sold on the promise that they are valid (they measure what they say they will measure) and reliable (they produce consistent results). “Many studies over the years have proven the validity of the MBTI instrument,” says the Myers & Briggs FoundationPsychologists seek to measure personality through a number of methods, the most common of which are objective tests and projective measures.Objective tests, such as self-report measures, rely on an individual's personal responses and are relatively free of rater bias.Hope it will help you.I would answer some questions honestly but if there are some questions which i can't tell the truth i will tell some lies. because if u really like this job and don't want to loose it, it's ok to give wrong answers just for once! That's my opinion. :p. But be careful u might get in trouble if they find out ur lying!
In Macroland autonomous consumption equals 100, the marginal propensity to consume equals 0.75, net taxes are fixed at 40, planned investment is fixed at 50, government purchases are fixed at 150, and net exports are fixed at 20. Planned aggregate expenditure equals:________a.1,000. b.1,160. c.1,280. d.1,440.
Answer:
b) $1,160
Explanation:
From the above information,
I=Investment = 50
G=Government expenditure = 150
X=Net export = 20
a=autonomous consumption = 100
b=Marginal propensity to consume = 0.75
Y=Equilibrium GDP
C = consumption ;
C = 100 + 0.75Y (Y income - 40 taxes)
Planned aggregate expenditure (PAE)
PAE = C + l +G +X
Substituting for C in the above equation,
PAE = 100 + 0.75 (Y - 40) + 50 + 150+ 20
= 100 + 0.75Y -30 + 50 + 150 + 20
= 290 + 0.75Y
Since short run exists when Y = PAE
Therefore,
Y = 290 + 0.75Y
Collect like terms
Y - 0.75Y = 290
0.25Y =290
Y = 290/0.25
Y = 1,160
Busch Company has these obligations at December 31. For each obligation, indicate whether it should be classified as a current liability, long-term liability, or both. (a) A note payable for $100,000 due in 2 years. select a balance sheet section (b) A 10-year mortgage payable of $200,000 payable in ten $20,000 annual payments. select a balance sheet section (c) Interest payable of $15,000 on the mortgage. select a balance sheet section (d) Accounts payable of $60,000. select a balance sheet section
Answer:
Busch Company
Indication of whether the obligation be classified as a current liability, long-term liability, or both:
(a) A note payable for $100,000 due in 2 years. Long-term Liability
(b) A 10-year mortgage payable of $200,000 payable in ten $20,000 annual payments. Both.
Every year, $20,000 would be classified as Current Liability while the remaining balance is long-term liabilities.
(c) Interest payable of $15,000 on the mortgage. Both
If the interest payable is to be settled at the end of the mortgage, then it is classified as only long-term.
(d) Accounts payable of $60,000. Current Liability
Explanation:
Busch's current liabilities are financial obligations that are due for settlement within the next accounting period of 12 months or less.
The long-term liabilities of Busch Company are those financial obligations that are not due for settlement within the next accounting period.
For some long-term liabilities, Busch may settle some part within 12 months. That part that can be settled within the accounting period are classified as current while the other parts are non-current.
The HIJ bond has a current price of $800, a maturity value of $1,000, and matures in 5 years. If interest is paid semi-annually and the bond is priced to yield 8%, what is the bond's annual coupon rate
Answer:
Explanation:
The coupon rate is defined as the interest rate paid on a bond by its issuer for the term of the security.
Hence,
Par Value = $800
Face Value = $1,000
N = 5 x 2 = 10
Since the interest is semi annual
i = 8% / 2 = 4%
CF = $15.34
Coupon = $30.68 per year or 3.068%

You purchased a share of stock for $120. One year later you received $1.82 as a dividend and sold the share for $136. What was your holding-period return
Answer:
Holding period return =14.85 %
Explanation:
The return on stock is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.
Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.
Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.
Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:
Holding period return = (Dividend + capital gain)/Begin Price of stock × 100
Dividend = $1.82
Capital gains= 136 - 120 = 16
Total dollar return on Investment = 1.82 + 16= $ 17.82
= 17.82/120 × 100 = 14.85 %
Holding period return =14.85 %
Sue Helms Appliances wants to establish an assembly line to manufacture its new product, the Micro Popcorn Popper. The goal is to produce five poppers per hour. The tasks, task times, and immediate predecessors for producing one Micro Popcorn Popper are as follows:
Task Performance time(minutes) Predecessor
A 8 -
B 10 A
C 8 A,B
D 10 B,C
E 8 C
F 4 D,E
a. The theoretical minimum number of workstations is:___________
b. The assignment of tasks to workstations should be:________
Were you able to assign all the activities to workstations equivalent to the theoretical minimum workstation ?
c. The efficiency of the assembly line is:________
Answer:
Please see explanation below.
Explanation:
a. Cycle time = Production time available per hour / Units required per hour
= 60 / 5
= 12minutes
Minimum number of workstations = Sum of the task time / Cycle time
Sum of task time
= 8 + 10 + 8 + 10 + 8 + 4
= 48
The theoretical minimum number of work stations is
= 48 / 12
= 4
b. In order to assign the tasks to the work station, events that precede the task must be considered together with the time taken to complete each task.
°Task A This task is assigned to work station 1 and no task would further be assigned to work station 1, otherwise it will exceed the cycle time.
°Task B. This next task will be assigned to work station 2, no additional task will be assigned to station 2.
Task C is assigned to workstation 3, hence can no longer accept any other assigned task.
°Task D is the next task and will be assigned to work station 4, and we cannot assign any more task to work station 4.
°Task E and F will not be assigned as there are no more available stations.
Task Time Workstation
A. 8 1
B. 10 2
C. 8 3
D. 10 4
E. 8 -
F. 4 -
Please note that due to the theoretical minimum number of work station, which is 4, it will not be possible to assign task to all the workstations hence task E and F remains unassigned.
C. Efficiency of the assembly line
Efficiency ;
= Sum of task times / Actual number of work stations × cycle time
Although the actual number of required workstation is 5 but we cannot assign task E and F due to the theoretical minimum number of workstation. Therefore, additional work station will be required and there are 5 work stations in total.
= 48 ÷ (5 × 12) × 100
= 80%
The theoretical minimum should be = 4
The efficiency of the assembly line should be 80 percent
The production time = 60
The units that are required per hour = 5
[tex]cycle time = \frac{minutes in one hour}{units needed in a day} \\\\cycle time=\frac{60}{5}[/tex]
= 12
The workstation = 8+10+8+10+8+4
= 48
[tex]The minimum number = \frac{48}{12} \\\\= 4[/tex]
The efficiency of the assembly line

If the domino effect occurs as a result of changes in the money supply, what will most likely happen as an immediate result of interest rates being increased? Borrowing will decrease. Investing will decrease. Inflation will increase. Liquidity will increase.
Answer:
The answer is: interest rates will decrease
Explanation:
Just got correct on edge
If there is an increase in the interest rate, then borrowing will decrease.
The term "domino effect" refers to the cumulative effect that is produced by one event that eventually leads to the same effect on others. In other words, the domino effect is when one disaster affects or brings destruction or disruption to others, leading to similar events.
One result will lead to a chain reaction in this event, affecting the rest of the cycle. This means that like one domino's downfall brings the next domino down, one destruction will lead to the fall of the next, taking the cycle to the end until all falls. In this scenario, if the interest rates are being increased, then it will lead to a decreased rate of borrowing. A change in the money supply will increase the interest rate. This will only leave the customers looking for a way out, which means there will be a lower rate of borrowing.In a domino effect, one event will bring the fall of the other. Therefore, if the interest rates increase, there will only be more problems for the customers. This will leave them reducing or decreasing the borrowing rate in the market. Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

5. Suppose that a firm is in an industry which has a very rapid rate of growth (in sales and output), and is characterized by technological change and innovation. Firms attempt to maximize profits causing new firms to enter the industry attracted by profit potential. The result is that profits are competed away, leading to even greater innovation and change. Is there a limit to this continuous change
Answer:
If we use high tech industry as our subject here, I would say that there is no limit to continuous change. We can look at he last 45 years and ever since Steve Jobs developed the Apple I, PCs have continuously evolved into different products and their rate of technological evolution has currently increased. Any modern smartphone is hundreds of times more powerful than the first PCs, they are even more powerful than huge computers that existed back then. Currently high tech companies are trying to develop AI, and who knows what after. The only problem is that project lives tend to be very short, but that is part of the game. The profit margins of the firms that are successful are huge, just look at how Apple became the first company to be worth more than 2 trillions.

Your first baby was born yesterday and is healthy and strong. To guard against your premature death, you want to purchase a life insurance policy that will replace $58,000 of your annual income until your child is 20 years old. How much life insurance should you purchase, if you assume a 3% inflation rate
Answer:
assuming the interest rate is = 15% the life insurance should you should purchase = $497854.0773
Explanation:
Given that :
Annual income receipt = $58000
Assumption:
If we assume that the inflation rate π = 3% = 0.03
Also , let assume that the interest rate is = 15% = 0.15 since it is not given too
Then the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (i-\pi)}{(1+\pi)}[/tex]
the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (0.15-0.03)}{(1+0.03)}[/tex]
the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (0.12)}{(1.03)}[/tex]
the effective interest rate = 0.1165
the effective interest rate = 11.65%
Since n = [tex]\infty[/tex]
The Principal amount of how much life insurance should you purchase is;
= Annual income receipt/the effective interest rate
= $58000/ 0.1165
= $497854.0773
