Answer:
A
Explanation:
Price elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness of quantity supplied to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of supply = percentage change in quantity supplied / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means supply is elastic. Elastic supply means that quantity supplied is sensitive to price changes.
Supply is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity supplied. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
The short run is a period where all factors of production are fixed. In the short run, a firm would continue to produce if price is above average variable cost. If this is not the case, it would shut down
The long run is a period where all factors of production are varied. It is known as the planning time for a company
Supply is more elastic in the long run than in the short run because the producer can make adjustments in the long run

net cost of new equipment=$375,000-$60,000
net cost of new equipment=$315,000
Gelbart Company manufactures gas grills. Fixed costs amount to $32,510,400 per year. Variable costs per gas grill are $520, and the average price per gas grill is $1,300. Required: 1. How many gas grills must Gelbart Company sell to break even
Answer:
the number of gas grills must Gelbart Company sell to break even is 41,680 gas grills
Explanation:
The computation of the number of gas grills must Gelbart Company sell to break even is given below:
= Fixed cost ÷ contribution margin per unit
= $32,510,400 ÷ ($1,300 - $520)
= $32,510,400 ÷ $780
= 41,680 gas grills
Hence, the number of gas grills must Gelbart Company sell to break even is 41,680 gas grills
A construction manager just starting in private practice needs a van to carry crew and equipment. She can lease a used van for $3,510 per year, paid at the beginning of each year, in which case maintenance is provied. Alternatively, she can buy a used van for $5,185 and pay for maintenance herself. She expects to keep the van for three years at which time she could sell it for $1,330. What is the most she should pay for uniform annual maintenance to make it worthwhile to buy the van instead of leasing it, if her MARR is 20%
Answer:
$2,116
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Option 1 - Leasing
= 3510 + ( 3510 ÷ 1.2 ) + ( 3510 ÷ 1.2 ^ 2 )
= 8872.5
Now
Option 2 - Buying
Given that
Initial Cost - 5185
PV of salvage value = 1330 ÷ 1.2 ^ 3
= 769.68
So,
Cost = 5185 - 769.68
= 4457.176
Now the payment should be
= 4457.176 × 0.47473 (PV annuity factory for 20% at 3 years)
= $2,115.955
= $2,116
Next year's earnings are estimated to be $2. The company plans to reinvest 20% of its earnings at 15%. If the cost of equity is 8%, what is the present value of growth opportunities
Answer: $15.33
Explanation:
Present value of growth opportunities = Value of company with growth - Value of company without growth
Value of company with growth:
Using Gordon Growth:
Growth rate = Reinvestment rate * Earnings reinvested
= 20% * 15%
= 3%
Value with growth = ( Earnings * Dividend payout ratio) / (Cost of equity - growth rate)
= (2 * (1 - 20%) ) / (8% - 3%)
= $32.00
Value without growth:
= Earnings / Cost of equity
= 2 / 12%
= $16.67
Present value of growth opportunities = 32 - 16.67
= $15.33
The preferred stock of a company pays a $2.75 quarterly dividends. If the preferred stockholders' required return is 7.25% for these shares, what price should the preferred stock sell for?
82.35
151.72
92.31
114.29
167.74
Answer:
$151.72
Explanation:
Quarterly dividends of preferred stock = $2.75
Annual dividend of preferred stock = 4 * Quarterly dividend
Annual dividend of preferred stock = 4 * $2.75
Annual dividend of preferred stock = $11
Required return = 7.25% = 0.0725
Return = Dividend / Current price
0.0725 = $11 / Current price
Current price = $11 / 0.0725
Current price = 151.724138
Current price = $151.72
So, the preferred stock should sell for $151.72.
A company issued 7%, 15-year bonds with a par value of $510,000 that pay interest semiannually. The market rate on the date of issuance was 7%. The journal entry to record each semiannual interest payment is: ________
a) Debit Bond Interest Expense $17,850, credit Cash $17,850
b) Debit Bond Interest Expense $35,700: credit Cash $35,700
c) Debit Bond Interest Payable $34,000, credit Cash $34,000.
Answer: A. Debit Bond Interest Expense $17,850, credit Cash $17,850
Explanation:
Since the company issued 7%, 15-year bonds with a par value of $510,000 that pay interest semiannually with a market rate of 7%, then the journal entry to record each semiannual interest payment will be:
Debit Bond Interest Expense $17,850
Credit Cash $17,850
(To record semi annual interest payment)
Note that bond interest expense was calculated as:
= $510,000 × 7% × 6/12
= $510,000 × 0.07 × 0.5
= $17850

Therefore, the Depreciation Expense of 3,060.
What is depreciation?Depreciation is a term used in accounting to describe two different aspects of the same idea: first, the actual decline in an asset's fair value as it is used and worn, such as the annual decline in value of factory equipment, and second, the allocation in accounting statements of the asset's original cost to the periods in which the asset is used (depreciation with the matching principle).
Depreciation is the process of reallocating, or "writing down," the cost of a physical item (such as equipment) over the course of that asset's useful life. It also refers to the decline in asset value. Long-term assets are depreciated by businesses for accounting and tax reasons. A company's or entity's balance sheet is impacted by the asset's decline in value, and the income statement they report is impacted by the process of depreciation from an accounting standpoint.

A company had inventory on November 1, of 5 units at a cost of $24 each. On November 2, they purchased 14 units at $26 each. On November 6 they purchased 10 units at $29 each. On November 8, 11 units were sold for $59 each. Using the LIFO perpetual inventory method, what was the value of the inventory on November 8 after the sale?
a) $460
b) $471
c) $482
d) $472
e) $458
Answer:
e
Explanation:
LIFO means last in first out. It means that it is the last purchased inventory that is the first to be sold.
If 11 inventories were sold, the inventory left would consist of 13 units purchased on the 2nd and 5 units the company had on the 1st
Inventory value = (13x 26) + (5 x 24) = 458
Transactions that affect earnings do not necessarily affect cash. Identify the effect, if any, that each of the following transactions would have upon cash and net income.
(a) Purchased $100 of supplies for cash.
(b) Recorded an adjusting entry to record use of $20 of the above supplies.
(c) Made sales of $1,200, all on account.
(d) Received $800 from customers in payment of their accounts.
(e) Purchased equipment for cash, $2,500.
Answer:
(a) Cash reduction, no effect on net income
(b) Net income reduction, no effect on cash
(c) Net income increment, no effect on cash
(d) Cash increase, no effect on net income
(e) Cash reduction, no effect on net income
Explanation:
When items or services are exchanged for cash, these may be recognized as assets or expenses. While expenses reduce income, assets do not as it forms the exchange of one asset (cash) for another.
Considering the transactions in light of the above,
a) Purchased $100 of supplies for cash - Supplies are inventory (an asset) and would not reduce net income until it is used up
(b) Recorded an adjusting entry to record use of $20 of the above supplies. No effect on cash, entry is a reduction in supplies and recognition of cost of goods sold. As such net income reduces.
(c) Made sales of $1,200, all on account. - Sales on account are credit sales. This will be recognized as a credit to sales (increase in net income) and a debit to accounts receivable.
(d) Received $800 from customers in payment of their accounts. - To recognize this, we debit cash (increase in cash) and debit accounts receivable. This has no effect on net income.
(e) Purchased equipment for cash, $2,500 - Again, this is he exchange of cash for an asset. This has no effect on income.

A convertible preferred stock is convertible at $10, pays a 4% annual dividend, is callable at $110, and is trading at a current market price of $116. Based on these details, what is the parity price of the common stock
Answer:
$11.60
Explanation:
In ascertaining the parity price of the common stock, we need to ascertain the conversion ratio which is the par price of the preferred stock divided by the convertible price
The par value of the preferred stock=$100(since call price is $110)
convertible price=$10
conversion ratio=$100/$10=10
The parity price is the current market price of the preferred stock divided by the conversion ratio
Parity price=$116/10
Parity price=$11.60
