Answer:
a) Farley should get $83,200
Clark should get $64,800
b) December 31, closing entry income summary account
Dr Income summary 148,000
Cr Farley, Martin, capital 83,200
Cr Clark, Ashley, capital 64,800
Explanation:
Martin Farley:
$70,000 salary allowance
60% of remaining income
Ashley Clark:
$56,000 salary allowance
40% of remaining income
if net income = $148,000, then:
Farley should get $70,000 + (60% x $22,000) = $83,200
Clark should get $56,000 + (40% x $22,000) = $64,800
Ray's Satellite Emporium wishes to determine the best order size for its best-selling satellite dish (model TS111). Ray has estimated the annual demand for this model at 1,500 units. His cost to carry one unit is $80 per year per unit, and he has estimated that each order costs $22 to place.
Using the EOQ model, how many should Ray order each time?
Answer:
28.72 units
Explanation:
Calculation of how many should Ray order each time using EOQ model
Using this formula
EOQ= √2DS/H
Where,
D=Annual demand 1,500 units
S=Order costs $22
H=Holding Costs $80 per unit
Let plug in the formula
EOQ=√2*1,500*$22/$80
EOQ=√66,000/$80
EOQ=√825
EOQ=28.72 units
Therefore Using the EOQ model, Ray should order 28.72 units each time.

good is excludable if: a. it is Wi-Fi or a similar service. b. people who do not pay cannot be easily prevented from using the good. c. one person's use of the good does not reduce the ability of another person to use the same good. d. people who do not pay can be easily prevented from using the good.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
people who do not pay can be easily prevented from using the good. (d)
Explanation:
Excludable goods or services are those to which the consumer cannot have access unless payment of some form is made. By contrast, a non-excludable good or service is one to which the consumer cannot be prevented from using even without payment. Excludable goods can be further divided into rivalrous and non-rivalrous.
A rivalrous excludable good or service is one in which usage by a consumer or usage by one party prevents or reduces significantly, its use by another consumer or party examples are goods such as clothes, food, cars etc, while non-rivalrous excludable goods/services include tv subscriptions, cinemas, etc.
an investment under consideration has a payback of six years and a cost of 876000. Assume the cash flows are conventional. If the required return is 12 percent, what is the worst-case NPV?
Answer:
-43291.14
Explanation:
Npv = net present value
Payback = 6 years
Required return = 12 percent
Cost = 876000
When we talk about last case npv we mean that cash flow has gotten to its last future. The entire cost of 876000 will have to be paid after 6 years and after that future cash flows would exist.
Npv = -876000 +(876000/1.12)⁶
= -876000+443808.86
= = -43291.14
Simon Corporation manufactures hydraulic valves. The product life of a valve is 4 years. Target average profit margin for Simon 20.00% The company does not expect the manufacturing cost to vary over the next 4 years. Estimated sales volume and the unit selling price of the valve for the next 4 years is given below: Year Sales volume (units) Unit selling price Year 1 40,000 $80.00 Year 2 50,000 $75.00 Year 3 35,000 $50.00 Year 4 25,000 $45.00 What is the allowable unit cost of a hydraulic valve using the target costing model
Answer:
Allowable unit cost of a hydraulic valve using the target costing model = 52.4
Explanation:
Given that:
Simon Corporation manufactures hydraulic valves. The product life of a valve is 4 years.
Target average profit margin for Simon 20.00%
The company does not expect the manufacturing cost to vary over the next 4 years
Estimated sales volume and the unit selling price of the valve for the next 4 years is given below:
Year Sales volume (units) Unit selling price
Year 1 40,000 $80.00
Year 2 50,000 $75.00
Year 3 35,000 $50.00
Year 4 25,000 $45.00
The objective is to determine the allowable unit cost of a hydraulic valve using the target costing model.
The Cost for each unit selling price can be calculated as:
= unit selling price - (Target average profit margin × unit selling price)
For Year 1
= $80.00- (0.2 × $80.00)
= $80.00 - $16.00
= $64.00
For Year 2
= $75.00 - ( 0.2 × $75.00)
= $75.00 - ( $15.00)
= $60.00
Year 3
= $50.00 - (0.2× $50.00)
= $50.00 - $10.00
= $40.00
Year 4
= $45.00 - (0.2 × $45.00)
=$45.00 - $9.00
= $36.00
Year Sales volume Unit Cost Cost per Unit
(units) selling price
Year 1 40,000 $80.00 $64.00 $2560000
Year 2 50,000 $75.00 $60.00 $3000000
Year 3 35,000 $50.00 $40.00 $1400000
Year 4 25,000 $45.00 $36.00 $900000
Total: 150000 $7860000
Allowable unit cost = Total cost/Total number of unit cost
Allowable unit cost = $7860000/150000
Allowable unit cost = 52.4
"A $10,000 municipal bond with 10 years to maturity is purchased in the primary market at 105. The bond is sold after 4 years at 105. The taxable gain or loss is a:"
Answer:
2 point capital gain
Explanation:
Every municipal bond that is purchased at premium is subject to straight line depreciation, whether the premium be trading premium or original issue premium.
Here the premium is 5 points = 105 - 100
Which shall be amortised over its useful life of 10 years.
Thus, for each year 1/2 point is amortised without allowing any tax deduction.
Thus, after 4 years total amortisation = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \times 4years = 2[/tex]
Thus, value at end of year 4 = 105 - 2 = 103 basis point.
Further the selling amount = 105 basis point.
Thus, 105 - 103 = 2 basis point shall be taxable.
A bond par value is $1,000 and the coupon rate is 5.1 percent. The bond price was $946.02 at the beginning of the year and $979.58 at the end of the year. The inflation rate for the year was 2.6 percent. What was the bond's real return for the year
Answer:
the bond's real return for the year is 6.18 %.
Explanation:
First find the nominal return of the bond then the real return as follows :
PV = - $946.02
Pmt = $1,000 × 5.10% = $51
P/yr = 1
FV = $979.58
n = 1
r = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the nominal return of the bond, r is 8.9385 %.
Real Return = ( 1 + nominal return) / (1 + inflation rate) -1
= (1 + 0.089395) / (1 + 0.026) - 1
= 0.0618 or 6.18 %
ignoring taxes what is the effect on earnings in the year after the shares are granted to executives
Answer: C. $40 million.
Explanation:
By granting them 15 million shares subject to forfeiture if employment is terminated within three years, the company is compensating them.
The total amount that they will be compensated with has to be apportioned over the 3 years as an expense that will reduce earnings per year.
Total compensation = No. of shares * fair value of shares
= 15,000,000 * 8
= $120,000,000
Apportioned over 3 years;
= 120,000,000/3
= $40,000,000
Potential GDP of an economy is $12 billion. Real (Actual) GDP is $20 Billion. Marginal propensity to consume is 0.75. What level of Government spending is required to achieve Full employment
Answer:
Government spending required = $2 billion
Explanation:
The required amount of GDP to achieve the full employment GDP =
Potential GDP - Actual
that is 20 - 12 = $8 billion.
But note that a government spending of less than $8 billion would be required to achieve an increase of 8 billion in real GDP. This is so because of expenditure multiplier effect.
The expenditure multiplier is the amount by which the aggregate output would increase with an increase in any of the expenditure components.
It is calculated as follows;
Multiplier = 1/(1-MPC)
For this question ,
Expenditure multiplier = 1/(1-0.75) = 4
This implies that $1 change in any of the aggregate expenditure would lead a $4 worth of change in GDP.
Government spending required is determined as
Desired change in real GDP/expenditure multiplier
= $8 billion/4 = $2 billion
Government spending required = $2 billion
Cameroon Corp. manufactures and sells electric staplers for $15.30 each. If 10,000 units were sold in December, and management forecasts 3.3% growth in sales each month, the number of electric stapler sales budgeted for March should be:
Answer:
Electric stapler sales budgeted for March should be: 11,023 units.
Explanation:
Apply the growth of 3.30% to each month starting December as follows :
December Sales = 10,000 units
January Sales = 10,000 × (1.033)^1 = 10,330 units
February Sales = 10,000 × (1.033)^2 = 10,671 units
March Sales = 10,000 × (1.033)^3 = 11,023 units
Rent expense of $3,000 is allocated to Department A and Department B based on square footage. Department A has 5,000 square feet and Department B has 2,500 square feet.
The dollar amount of rent expense allocated to Department B is:_______
Answer:
$1,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the Dollar amount of rent expense allocated to department B
Using this formula
Expense allocated to Department B= Rent expense allocated to Department A and B* Department B square feet/Department A and Department B Square foot
Let plug in the formula
Expense allocated to department B =$3,000*2,500/5,000+2,500
Expense allocated to department B= $3,000 * 2,500 / 7,500
Expense allocated to department B =$7,500,000/7,500
Expense allocated to department B= $1,000
Therefore the Dollar amount of rent expense allocated to department B will be $1,000
Sheridan Company issues 3600 shares of its $10 par value common stock having a fair value of $20 per share and 5600 shares of its $10 par value preferred stock having a fair value of $20 per share for a lump sum of $205400. What amount of the proceeds should be allocated to the preferred stock
Answer:
$125,026
Explanation:
Common Shares 3,600
Fair value $20
Total market value of common stock $72,000
Preferred shares 5,600
Fair value $20
Total market value of preferred stock $112,000
Lump Sum amount $205,400
Amount of proceeds should be allocated to the preferred stock = 205,400 * (112,000 / (72,000 + 112,000) ) = $125,026
The risk-free rate is 6% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 13%. a. Calculate the required rate of return on a security with a beta of 1.25.
Answer:
The required rate of return is r = 0.1475 or 14.75%
Explanation:
The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.
The equation is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
rRF is the risk free raterM is the return on marketr = 0.06 + 1.25 * (0.13 - 0.06)
r = 0.1475 or 14.75%
Yan Yan Corp. has a $5,000 par value bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 4.6 percent paid semiannually and 21 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.1 percent.
What is the price of the bond?
Answer:
Price of the bond = $4,122.36
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of bond for Yan Yan Corp. be worked out as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payments
Semi annul interest payment
= 4.6% × 5,000 × 1/2 = 115
Semi-annual yield = 4.1%/2 = 2.05 % per six months
Total period to maturity (in months) = (2 × 21) = 41 periods
PV of interest =
115 × (1- (1+0.0205)^(-21)/0.0205)=1,946.47
Step 2
PV of Redemption Value
= 5000 × (1.0205^(-41) = 2,175.89
Step 3:Price of the bond
Total present Value = 1,946.47 + 2,175.89 = 4,122.36
Price of the bond = $4,122.36
Suppose Cho is considering emigrating from her home country.A fictional country of Flaxon has the same policies and institutions as Cho's home country, except that it has greater price stability. If Cho's decision to emigrate is based solely on the prospects for economic growth, she would
Answer: Migrate to Flaxon
Explanation:
If Flaxon country has the same policies and institutions as Cho's home country but also has greater price stability, Cho would emigrate if she wanted more economic growth because Price stability contributes to the growth of the economy.
Price stability means that the country is not going to experience inflation (deflation) that is too high (low) and lasts too long as well as one that is erratic.
This benefits the economy because;
Savings will not be easily eroded by inflation.Decisions can be made easier as inflation rates can be better predictable. For instance, people can save or invest at a particular rate that they know will bring them real return as it will be over the inflation rate. Unexpected deflation will not cause companies to make losses which can increase unemployment and company shutdowns and,Financial institutions can borrow out loans at more stable rates for investments because in a less stable market they would have to charge higher rates to ensure that they do not make losses should inflation change. These stable rates will attract companies and individuals who will use the funds for investment and improve the economy.Companies Heidee and Leaudy are virtually identical in that they are both profitable, and they have the same total assets (TA), Sales (S), return on assets (ROA), and profit margin (PM). However, Company Heidee has the higher debt ratio. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?a. Company Heidee has a lower operating income (EBIT) than Company LDb. Company Heidee has a lower total assets turnover than Company Leaudy.c. Company Heidee has a lower equity multiplier than Company Leaudy.d. Company Heidee has a higher fixed assets turnover than Company Leaudy.e. Company Heidee has a higher ROE than Company Leaudy.
Answer:
Correct Answer:
e. Company Heidee has a higher ROE than Company Leaudy.
Explanation:
Return on Equity, (ROE) is a ratio that provides investors with insight into how efficiently a company and more specifically, its management team is handling the money that shareholders have contributed to it. That is, it measures the profitability of a corporation in relation to stockholders' equity.
Company Heidee has the higher debt ratio shows that the ROE is very high. This shows that the investors money in Company Heidee is well managed in the business.
If United Airlines acted as a "price leader" and all other airlines simply charged the same prices
that United Airlines charged, then could this action be illegal because it is a form of "silent collusion?"
A. There is no such term in microeconomics known as "tacit" or "silent collusion."
B. Matching the prices of the price leader firm is a good example of a competitive market.
C. The U.S. Anti-Trust Department has always considered this business behavior as suspicious
and it does consider this pricing strategy to be illegal.
D. The famous 1982 anti-monopoly IBM court case said that this pricing strategy within an
industry is legal as long as the firms fill out quarterly reports to keep the U.S. Anti-Trust
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The airline industry is an example of an oligopoly
An Oligopoly is when there are few large firms operating in an industry. While, a monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry.
Oligopolies are characterised by :
price setting firms
product differentiation
profit maximisation
high barriers to entry or exit of firms
downward sloping demand curve
the action taken by the other airlines is known as tacit collusion.
Tacit collusion is when other companies adopt the price of the price leader
Tacit collusion is not illegal while the explicit collision is illegal.

Earnings per Share, Price-Earnings Ratio, Dividend Yield The following information was taken from the financial statements of Tolbert Inc. for December 31 of the current fiscal year:
Common stock, $25 par value (no change during the year) $5,500,000
Preferred $5 stock, $100 par (no change during the year) 3,000,000
The net income was $502,000 and the declared dividends on the common stock were $55,000 for the current year. The market price of the common stock is $13.60 per share. For the common stock
Determine:
a. the earnings per share
b. the price-earnings ratio
c. the dividends per share
d. the dividend yield.
Answer:
a. the earnings per share is $2.28
b. the price-earnings ratio is 5.96 times
c. the dividends per share is $0.25
d. the dividend yield is 1.84%
Explanation:
a. the earnings per share
Earning per share is the net earning of the company against each outstanding share.
Earning per share = Net Income / Numbers of Outstanding shares
Earning per share = $502,000 / ($5,500,000/$25)
Earning per share = $502,000 / 220,000 = $2.28
b. the price-earnings ratio
Price earning ratio determines the impact of net income on market value of the share.
Price earning Ratio = Market Pice of stock / Earning per share
Price earning Ratio = $13.60 / $2.28
Price earning Ratio = 5.96
c. the dividends per share
Dividend per share is the value of dividend paid to each outstanding common share.
Dividend per share = Dividend declared / Numbers of outstanding shares
Dividend per share = $55,000 / 220,000 shares
Dividend per share = $0.25 per share
d. the dividend yield.
Dividend yield is the ratio of dividend per share and Market price per share.
Dividend Yield = Dividend Per share / Market price per share
Dividend Yield = $0.25 / $13.60 = 0.0184 = 1.84%

hello some details/parts of your question are missing attached below is the missing part
answer : A ) = 24.13%
B ) = 0.1084, The preceding data series represents a SAMPLE
C ) = 0.4494
Explanation:
A) The average realized return on FF stock can be calculated as
= 24% + 16.15% + 29% +39.9% + 12.35% / 5
= 24.13%
B) The preceding data series represents a SAMPLE standard deviation BECAUSE RETURNS WERE MADE ONLY FOR FIVE YEARS
and the sample standard deviation is calculated as
[tex]s^2 = \frac{summation ( x - mean vale)^2}{N-1}[/tex]
[tex]S^2 = \frac{0.0470383}{ 5 -1 }[/tex] = 0.01175056
s = [tex]\sqrt{0.01175056}[/tex] = 0.1084
C) coefficient of variation
coefficient of variation = standard deviation / mean
= 0.1084 / 0.2413 = 0.4494
You manufacture wine goblets. In mid- June you receive an order for 10,000 goblets from Japan. Payment of ¥400,000 is due in mid- December. You expect the yen to rise from its present rate of $1=¥107 to $1 to ¥120 by December 2020. You can borrow yen at 6% a year. What should you do?
Answer:
I will borrow yen at 6% a year.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Payment for 10,000 = ¥400,000
Spot rate = $1 = ¥107
Forward rate = $1 to ¥120
Borrow ¥400,000, the interest cost = ¥24,000 = $224.30/2 (¥24,000/107) = $112.15 for six months
Value of ¥400,000 borrowed in dollars = $3,738.32 (¥400,000/107)
Loan Repayment of ¥400,000 in dollars = $3,333,33 (¥400,000/120)
Gain from forward contract = $404.99
Interest cost for borrowing = 112.15
Overall debt hedging gain = $292.84
By borrowing yen at 6% per annum, you will make an overall gain of $292.84. This is not comparable to the foreign exchange loss of $404.99 that you will incur without borrowing yen. Taking advantage of the the debt hedging, the supplier is able to save foreign exchange loss.

Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales in Units
April 54,000
May 75,000
June 94,000
July 82,000
Desired ending inventory= 20% of the following month’s sales.
The inventory at the end of March was 10,800 units.
To calculate the production for each month, we need to use the following formula:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
April:
Sales= 54,000
Ending inventory= 75,000*0.2= 15,000
Beginning inventory= (10,800)
Total= 58,200 units
May:
Sales= 75,000
Ending inventory= 94,000*0.2= 18,800
Beginning inventory= (15,000)
Total= 78,800 units
June:
Sales= 94,000
Ending inventory= 82,000*0.2= 16,400
Beginning inventory= (18,800)
Total= 91,600 units
Total for the quarter= 228,600 units
In the above case, Sales in Units in the month of April is 54,000, in the month of May is 75,000, in the month of June is 94,000 and in the month of July is 82,000.
What is sales?A sale is defined as a transaction between the parties in which the purchaser acquires goods, services, or assets in return for money. In some cases, other assets are pay off to a seller.
Computation of production:
According to the available information,
Desirable closing inventory= 20% of the following month’s sales.
The inventory at the end of March was 10,800 units.
To calculate the production in each month, the formula is:
[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}[/tex]
Production in the month of April:
According to the given information,
Sales= 54,000
Ending inventory:
[tex]=75,000\times \dfrac{20}{100}\\= 15,000[/tex]
Beginning inventory= 10,800
Now, apply the given values in the above formula:
[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}\\\\\text{Production} =54,000+15,000-10,800\\\\\text{Production}=58,200\text{Units}[/tex]
Production in the month of May:
Sales= 75,000
Ending inventory:
[tex]=94,000\times \frac{20}{100}\\\\= 18,800[/tex]
Beginning inventory= 15,000
Now, apply the given values in the above formula:
[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}\\\\\text{Production} =75,000+18,800-15,000\\\\\text{Production}=78,800\text{Units}[/tex]
Production in the month of June:
Sales= 94,000
Ending inventory:
[tex]872,000\times\dfrac{20}{100}= 16,400[/tex]
Beginning inventory= 18,800
Now, apply the given values in the above formula:
[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}\\\\\text{Production} =94,000+16,400-18,800\\\\\text{Production}=91,600\text{Units}[/tex]
Therefore, the Total for the quarter :
[tex]=\text{May's Production + June's Production+Juily's Production}\\\\=58,200+78,800+91,600 \text{Units}\\= 228,600 \text{Units}[/tex]
