Answers

Answer:

1. 16,100

Explanation:

To get how much she would include in her federal taxable income. We would have to add up these values:

The car won on the price is right + scratch off lottery + sign up bonus.

15,500 + 500 + 100

=$16,100

2a.

head of household

0 to 9275 at 10% = 927.5

(37650 - 9275)*15% = 4256.1

(57500 - 37650)*25% = 4962.5

total = 927.5 + 4256.1 + 4962.5

= 10146.1

2b

single person

0 to 9275 at 10% = 927.5

(35000-9275)*10% = 3858.75

total = 927.5 + 3858.75

= 4786.25

2c

for married couple

0 to 18550 at 10% = 1855

(70700-1855)*15% = 7822.5

Emira wants to buy a classic drawing from an art centre in Kuala Lumpur. She managed to secure a painting by a renowned Malaysian artist that costs her RM99,800. Currently, she only has RM12,650 in her savings account and she intends to use 70% of her saving to fund the purchase. If she borrows the remaining amount from Bank Atlantis that levies 4.77% of interest rates, determine the total interest payment that she will pay if the agreement takes 10 years of settlement.

Answers

Answer:

RM23,617.80

Explanation:

cost of the painting RM99,800

she has RM12,650 on her bank account and she will use 70% = RM8,855 as down payment. She will borrow the rest = RM99,800 - RM8,855 = RM90,945

interest charged on the loan 4.77% / 12 = 0.3975%

120 monthly periods (10 years)

using the present value formula to determine the monthly payment:

PV = monthly payment x annuity factor

monthly payment = PV / annuity factor

PV = 90,945

annuity factor (120 periods, 0.3975%) = 95.26168

monthly payment = 90,945 / 95.26168 = 954.69

total payments = 120 x 954.69 = RM114,562.80

interests paid = RM114,562.80 - RM90,945 = RM23,617.80

Assume you have a margin account with a 50% initial margin. You purchase 100 shares of stock at $80 per share. The price increases to $100 per share. What is the net value of your investment (margin) now

Answers

Answer:

Net value of the investment (margin) is $6,000

Explanation:

The initial margin = (100 shares * $80) * 50%

The initial margin = $4,000

Increase in the Margin value = 100 shares* ($100-$80)

Increase in the Margin value = 100 shares * $20

Increase in the Margin value =$2,000

Net value of the investment (margin) = $4,000 + $2,000

Burke's Corner currently sells blue jeans and T-shirts. Management is considering adding fleece tops to its inventory to provide a cooler weather option. The tops would sell for $53 each with expected sales of 4,300 tops annually. By adding the fleece tops, management feels the firm will sell an additional 285 pairs of jeans at $65 a pair and 420 fewer T-shirts at $26 each. The variable cost per unit is $36 on the jeans, $16 on the T-shirts, and $31 on the fleece tops. With the new item, the depreciation expense is $33,000 a year and the fixed costs are $76,000 annually. The tax rate is 35 percent. What is the project's operating cash flow?

Answers

Answer:  $‬26,282.25‬

Explanation:

The operating cash-flow will be the amount of cash the company got from sales less the amount they would have to pay on taxes.

Cash from tops

= (Sales price - Variable costs) * quantity

= ( 53 - 31) * 4,300

= $94,600

Cash from jeans

= ( 65 - 36) * 285

= $8,265

Cash from jeans

= (26 - 16) * -420

= -$4,200

As this deals with cash, a tax adjusted depreciation will need to be added back because it is a non cash expense and fixed costs will have to be deducted.

Pre-tax operating cash-flow = 94,600 + 8,265 - 4,200 - 76,000

= $22,665‬

Post-tax Project Operating cash-flow

= $22,665‬ * ( 1 - 0.35) + (depreciation * tax)

= $22,665‬ * ( 1 - 0.35) + (33,000 * 0.35)

= $14,732.25‬ + 11,550

= $‬26,282.25‬

Answer:

b. $19,020

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided in the attached pdf file before answering the question. Please, see the attached file for the full question.

Also note that the "1. Option A 2. Option B 3. Option C" are not actually part of the question.

The explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:

Note: This is an example of annuity. An annuity can be described as a series of payments made or income received at equal intervals.

Therefore, the relevant table in the question is the second table, i.e. table for the present value of an annuity of $1 at compound interest.

To calculate the present value (PV), the following for formula is used:

PV = ACI * PVA10% ............................ (1)

PV = Present value = ?

ACI = Annual cash inflows = $6,000

PVA = Present value of annuity of $1 at 10% for 4 years = 3.170

Note that the PVA is obtained for year 4 at 10% from the second table as already explained above.

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

PV = $6,000 * 3.170

PV = $19,020

Therefore, the correct option is option b. $19,020.

"Your customer has been declared legally incompetent and his daughter has presented the proper legal papers appointing her as the guardian. Which statement is TRUE?"

Answers

Explanation:

The customer has been declared legally incompetent which means that he should not be making decisions that have to do with something as serious as trading instructions as he will not be able to comprehend them.

The only person that should therefore take over such roles would be his daughter who is a legal guardian. As she is not his guardian, she is able to take such decisions for him and so the trading instructions should be accepted only from the daughter.

Amount Payable or paid = $582

Explanation:

The terms of purchase state that the buyer will be entitled to a 3% cash discount if the payment for the purchases is made within 15 days of the purchase or invoice date.

Thus, if the payment is made on or within the fifteen days of invoice date, the cash discount that will be received is,

(Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).)

Answers

Answer:

a. $1,700 U

b. $3,260 F

Explanation:

a. Fixed over head budget variance = Actual fixed overhead - Budgeted fixed overhead

Actual fixed overhead = $35,700

Budgeted fixed overhead = $34,000

Fixed overhead budget variance = $35,700 - $34,000

= $1,700 U

b. Fixed overhead volume variance = Budgeted fixed overhead - Standard fixed overhead

Standard fixed overhead application rate = $2 per machine hr × 1hr

= $2

Budgeted fixed overhead = $34,000

Standard fixed overhead = Standard hours for actual output × Budgeted rate

= (18,630 units × 1hr) × $2

= $37,260

Fixed overhead volume variance

= $34,000 - $37,260

= 3,260 F

In the consensus case, what is Amazon's enterprise value on the valuation date using the exit multiple terminal value

Answers

Answer:

The exit multiple expect that the market different premise is a reasonable strategy for esteeming a business. The estimation of the business is gotten by duplicating money related measurements, for example, EBITDA or EBIT by a factor that is basic to practically identical organizations that were as of late procured. A fitting scope of products can be created by taking a gander at late equivalent acquisitions in the open market.  

The various acquired is then increased by the anticipated EBIT or EBITDA in year N (last year of projection period) to give the future incentive toward the finish of year N. The future value (otherwise called terminal value) is then limited by a factor equivalent to the quantity of years in the projection time frame.  

The worth got is then added to the current estimation of the free incomes to acquire the suggested venture esteem. For repetitive organizations where profit vacillate as per varieties in the economy, we utilize the normal EBITDA or EBIT over the span of the particular recurrent as opposed to the sum in year N in the projection time frame.  

This implies an industry different is applied as opposed to applying a current numerous to consider the recurrent varieties of profit. On the off chance that investigators utilized a current numerous, the valuation would be influenced by financial cycles.

A Enterprise Value (EV) to Revenue Multiple is used to value a business by dividing its enterprise value by its annual revenue. The formula to calculate the Enterprise Value (EV) to Revenue Multiple is EV/Revenue

EV = Enterprise Value

EV can be denoted as (Equity Value + All Debt + Preferred Shares) – (Cash and Equivalents)

While Revenue = Total Annual Revenue

This can be calculated when we have a share price, shares outstanding, debt, and cash or its equivalence.

Used 10,600 pounds of materials in production. (Finished goods and work in process inventories are insignificant and can be ignored.)

Worked 2,100 direct labor-hours at a cost of $6.30 per hour.

Incurred variable manufacturing overhead cost totaling $3,000 for the month. A total of 1,200 machine-hours was recorded.

It is the company’s policy to close all variances to cost of goods sold on a monthly basis.

Required:

1. Compute the following variances for June:

a. Materials price and quantity variances.

b. Labor rate and efficiency variances.

c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances.

2. Summarize the variances that you computed in (1) above by showing the net overall favorable or unfavorable variance for the month.

Answers

Answer:

1 a. Materials price and quantity variances.

Material price variance = (Actual price - Standard price) * Actual Quantity purchased

= ($2.45 - $2) * 15,800

= $0.45 * 15,800

= $7110 (Unfavorable)

Materials Quantity variance = (Actual Quantity used - Standard Quantity allowed) * Standard price  

(10600 - 3000 * 3.6) * $2

= (10,600 -  10,800) * $2

= 200 * $2

= 400 (Favorable)

b. Labor rate and efficiency variances.

Labor rate variance = (Actual rate - standard rate) * Actual hours

= (6.30 - 6.6) * 2,100

= 0.3 * 2,100

= 630 (Favorable)

Labor Efficiency variance  = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed) *  Standard rate  

= (2100 - 3000 * 0.5) * 6.6

= (2,100 - 1,500) * 6.6

= 600 * 6.6

= 3960 (Unfavorable)

c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances

Variable overhead rate variance  = (Actual rate - Standard rate * Actual machine hours)

= 3000 - (2.10 * 1200)

= 3,000 - 2,520

= 480 Unfavorable

Variable overhead Efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed)* Standard rate

= (1200 - 3000 * 0.3) * 2.10    

= (1200 - 900) * 2.10

= 300 * 2.10

= 630 (Unfavorable)

2.    Variances                                            Amount

Material price variance                             7,110 U

Material quantity variance                         400 F

Labor rate variance                                    630 F

Labor efficiency variance                           3,960 U

Variable overhead rate variance               480 U

Variable overhead efficiency variance      630 U

The profit-maximizing monopolist produces _____________ units and charges a price of _____________.

Answers

Answer: Q0; P3

Explanation:

The profit-maximizing monopolist produces Q0 units and charges a price of P3.

According to the exhibit graph, the monopolist will produce Q0 units. This is because a monopoly maximises profit at the point where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost. Looking at the chart, the quantity of output where this happens is Q0.

The Monopolist will then charge a price of P3. After the profit-maximising output is realized, the way to find out the price the monopolist will sell at is the point where the output produced intersects with the Demand curve. At this point, the price listed is what people are willing to buy that amount of quantity for and so the Monopoly will sell at that price.

Geese Company utilizes the LIFO retail inventory method. Its cost-to-retail percentage is 60% based on beginning inventory and 64% based on current-period purchases. The company determined that beginning inventory at retail was $200,000 and that during the current period a new layer was added with retail value of $50,000. The cost of ending inventory should be

Answers

Answer:

$152,000

Explanation:

Calculation for the cost of the ending inventory

First step is to calculate the cost-to-retail percentage of the beginning inventory amount

Using this formula

Beginning Inventory =Cost-to-retail percentage*Beginning inventory at retail

Let plug in the formula

Beginning Inventory =60%*$200,000

Beginning Inventory =$120,000

Second step is to calculate current-period purchases percentage of the new layer amount

Using this formula

Current period purchases= Purchases percentage* New layer

Let plug in the formula

Current period purchases=64%*50,000

Current period purchases=$32,000

The last step is to find the cost of the ending inventory using this formula

Ending inventory cost=Beginning Inventory+Current period purchases

Let plug in the formula

Ending inventory cost=$120,000+$32,000

Ending inventory cost=$152,000

Therefore the cost of the ending inventory will be $152,000

A firm hires labor in a perfectly competitive labor market. Its current profit-maximizing hourly output is 100 units, which the firm sells at a price of $5 per unit. The Marginal Physical product (MPP) of the last unit of labor employed is 5 units per hour. The firm pays each worker an hourly wage of $15. a)What Marginal Revenue (MR) does the firm earn from sale of the output produced by the last worker employed? b)Does this firm sell its output in a perfectly competitive market?

Answers

Answer:

A.Marginal Revenue $3

B. No

Explanation:

A.Calculation for the Marginal Revenue (MR) that the firm earn from sale of the output produced by the last worker employed

Based on the information given we were told that the Marginal Physical product of the last unit of labor was 5 units per hour in which the firm pays each worker an hourly wage of $15. Now let calculate the Marginal Revenue using this formula

Marginal Revenue = Employees hourly wages/Marginal Physical product unit of labor

Where,

Employees hourly wages=$15

Marginal Physical product unit of labor =5 units per hour

Let plug in the formula

Marginal Revenue =$15/5

Marginal Revenue =$3

B. No reason been that the current profit-maximizing hourly output was 100 units in which we were told that the firm sells at a price of $5 per unit. While the Marginal Revenue gotten in (A) above was $3 which is lesser or lower than $5 per unit which simply means that the firm does NOT sell its output in a well perfectly competitive market .

Say the marginal tax rate is 30 percent and that government expenditures do not change with output. Say also that the economy is at potential output and that the deficit is $200 billion.Required:a. What is the size of the cyclical deficit?b. What is the size of the structural deficit?c. How would your answers to a and b change if the deficit was still $200 billion but output was $200 billion below potential?d. How would your answers to a and b change if the deficit was still $200 billion but output was $100 billion above potential?

Answers

Answer:

a. The Cyclical deficit refers to the deficit arising from the difference between the potential output and the actual output.

The question assumes that the economy is producing at potential which means actual output equals potential output.

Cyclical Deficit = Tax rate * ( Potential Output - Actual Output)

Cyclical Deficit = 0.3 * 0

Cyclical Deficit  = $0

b. Structural deficit occurs even when the economy is at potential because it refers to Government deficits that happen when the economy is experiencing normal activity.

Structural Deficit = Actual deficit - Cyclical deficit

Structural Deficit = 200 billion - 0

Structural Deficit = $200 billion

c. Output is $200 billion below potential

Cyclical Deficit = Tax rate * ( Potential Output - Actual Output)

Cyclical Deficit = 0.3 * 200

Cyclical Deficit  = $60 billion

Structural Deficit = Actual deficit - Cyclical deficit

Structural Deficit = 200 billion - 60

Structural Deficit = $140 billion

d. Output is $100 billion above potential

Cyclical Deficit = Tax rate * ( Potential Output - Actual Output)

Cyclical Deficit = 0.3 * -100 as actual is above potential

Cyclical Deficit  = -$30 billion

Structural Deficit = Actual deficit - Cyclical deficit

Structural Deficit = 200 billion - (-30)

Structural Deficit = $230 billion
