The ____________________ problem is the main source of market failure in the provision of nonexcludable public goods.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Free Rider

Explanation:

Non-excludable goods refers to public goods that are free to the public to use such goods and therefore there is no restriction to the  consumption of non-excludable goods because every single individual  has the right to access and consume it  For example,  Public parks, roads, and public infrastructures.

A non excludable good can overtime have a negative result in a community, because such good need to be constantly maintained so as to continue to be beneficial and  therefore may require small token of fair share among its consumers but there would always be some individuals who are referred to as Free Riders  who would rather use the good without paying for it and in the long run cause the good to not be adequate for all or difficult  to be maintained at its best resulting to failure in the provision of the non excludable public goods.

the free rider problem can be solved by

1. Government's intervention to subsidize the public good through fair distribution of tax, using the pay as you earn method .

2. Overused non excludable good can be privatized, ensuring that people who consume it, contribute to ts maintenance.

Differential Analysis dated March 15:

                                     Alternative 1                   Alternative 2

                                Sell rough-cut Lumber     Process to finished-cut

Sales                             $440                                  $600

Cost of processing         315                                     465

Profit                             $125                                    $135

Choose Alternative 2.

Explanation:

Calgary Lumber Company's differential analysis is a tool that its management can use to decide the alternative to pursue by examining the differences in the outcomes of two or more alternative actions.  From the analysis done between the two alternatives open to Calgary, it appears that the second alternative will yield a higher profit of $135 instead of alternative 1's profit of $125.  There is a differential profit of $10 per hundred board feet to be made if Calgary Lumber Company pursues alternative 2 instead of alternative 1.

A stock had returns of 17.88 percent, −5.16 percent, and 20.39 percent for the past three years. What is the variance of the returns?

Answers

Answer:

Variance of the return = 0.01983

Explanation:

[tex]S^{2}[/tex]= Σ[tex](X-X)^{2}[/tex]/ N - 1

Mean return = 17.88% + -5.16% + 20.39% = 11.0367%  

Variance = [(17.88% - 11.0367%)2 + (-5.16% - 11.0367%)2 + (20.39% - 11.0367%)2] /(3 - 1)

Variance = [0.004683 + 0.026233 + 0.008748]/2

Currently Baldwin is paying a dividend of $1.10 (per share). If this dividend stayed the same, but the stock price rose by 10% what would be the dividend yield

Answers

Answer:

Dividend yield = 227.06%

Explanation:

Assuming the Closing stock market summary for Baldwin company is $44.05

Dividend yield = Dividend * 100 / (Price* (1 + growth rate) )

Dividend yield = 1.10 * 100 / (44.05 * (1+0.10) )

Dividend yield = 1.10 * 100 / (44.05 * 1.10)

Dividend yield = 110 / 48.455

Dividend yield = 2.2706

Dividend yield = 227.06%

Answer:

Kohler Corporation

Journal Entries:

Jan. 2:

Debit Treasury Stock $45,000

Debit Paid-in Capital In Excess of Par $67,500

Credit Cash Account $112,500

To record the purchase of 4,500 shares of its own stock at $25 per share.

Jan. 5:

Debit Dividends $71,000

Credit Dividends Payable $71,000

To record the declaration of $2 per share cash dividend.

July 6:

Debit Cash Account $48,952

Credit Treasury Stock $16,880

Credit Paid-in Capital In Excess of Par $32,072

To record the sale of treasury stock shares at $29 per share.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Common stock—$10 par value, 100,000 shares authorized,

40,000 shares issued and outstanding $ 400,000

Paid-in capital in excess of par value,

common stock                                             60,000

Retained earnings                                      460,000

Total stockholders' equity                      $ 920,000

b) The purchase on Jan. 2 of its own stock of 4,500 shares, the cash receipt is credited to the Cash Account while the Treasury Stock is debited, but only with the par value of the repurchased shares if the par value method is adopted.  If the costing method is adopted, the value to be debited to the Treasury Stock account would have $112,500 without any debit to the Paid-in Capital In Excess of Par.  This is also followed when the sale of 1,688 treasury shares at $29 per share takes place on July 6, but with opposite entries.

c) To compute the dividend payable, the treasury stock shares of 4,500 are deducted from the outstanding shares of 40,000.  This means that the shareholders of record have shares outstanding totalling 35,500 (40,000 - 4,500).

d) The general journal is used in these cases to record the transactions initially in the books of Kohler Corporation.  They show the accounts to be debited and the others to be credited, since two accounts or more are usually involved in any business transaction.

Union Local School District has bonds outstanding with a coupon rate of 4.5 percent paid semiannually and 20 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on these bonds is 3.8 percent and the bonds have a par value of $10,000. What is the dollar price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

$10,974.45

Explanation:

coupon rate 4.5%, semiannual = 2.25%

20 years until maturity = 40 periods

market rate 3.8%, semiannual = 1.9%

par value $10,000

market price of the bonds = PV of par value + PV of coupon payments

PV of par value = $10,000 / (1 + 1.9%)⁴⁰ = $4,710.13

PV of coupon payments = $225 x 27.84144 (PV annuity factor, 1.9%, 40 periods) = $6,264.32

market value = $4,710.13 + $6,264.32 = $10,974.45

Answer:

The dollar price of the bond is $10,974.45.

Explanation:

The dollar price of the bond, PV, can be determined as follows :

N = 20 × 2 = 40

PMT = ($10,000 × 4.5%) ÷ 2 = $225

P/YR = 2

YTM = 3.80 %

FV = $10,000

PV = ?

Using a Financial Calculator, the dollar price of the bond, PV is $10,974.45.

Answers

Answer:

Appalachian Beverages

With reported current assets of $70,300 and a current ratio of 1.90, one can work out the current liabilities from these two.  The current liabilities are equal to $70,300/1.90 - $37,000.  To work back, one can state that current ratio equals $70,300/$37,000 = 1.90.

Having ascertained the value of the former current liabilities, one can use the information to update the two parameters for calculating the current ratio as follows:

Current liabilities increased by $6,700 from purchase of merchandise on account and of a delivery truck by $8,000.  So, the updated current liabilities equal to $37,000 + 6,700 + 8,000 = $51,700.  Similarly, the current assets decreased by $2,000 for the part-payment for the delivery truck.  Thus, current assets are now equal to $68,300 ($70,300 - 2,000).

Having updated the two parameters, one can then compute the updated current ratio as follows:

Current ratio = current assets/current liabilities = $68,300/$51,700 = 1.32.

Explanation:

Appalachian Beverages' current ratio shows the relationship between current assets and current liabilities and the ability of the entity to settle current liabilities with current assets.

g The company plans a 4-for-1 stock split. How many shares will you own and what will the share price be after the stock split?

Answers

Answer: 14,400; $17

Explanation:

Stock splits are a strategy by firms to increase the liquidity of their shares especially when they are trading at a high price. The firm divides the stock by a certain number thus increasing the number of shares by the multiple of the number. This action will divide the price of the stock and thus allow for more trade as they are cheaper.

A 4-for- stock split means that each share will become 4.

Your total number of share will become;

= 4 * 3,600

= 14,400 shares

The new price will be;

= 68/4

= $17 per share

Airborne Airlines Inc. has a $1,000 par value bond outstanding with 10 years to maturity. The bond carries an annual interest payment of $90 and is currently selling for $960. Airborne is in a 20 percent tax bracket. The firm wishes to know what the aftertax cost of a new bond issue is likely to be. The yield to maturity on the new issue will be the same as the yield to maturity on the old issue because the risk and maturity date will be similar.

Required:
a. Compute the yield to maturity on the old issue and use this as the yield for the new issue.
b. Make the appropriate tax adjustment to determine the aftertax cost of debt.

Answers

Answer:Yield to maturity is 9.59%;  After tax cost of debt =7.672%

Explanation:

 A)   Yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} /  {(FV +PV)/2}

Where C – Interest payment    = $90

FV – Face value of the security

= $1000

PV – Present value/curent market value = $960

t – years it takes the security to reach maturity= 10 years

imputing the values and calculating,

yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} /  {(FV +PV)/2}

= $90 + (1000-960)/10} / 1000 + 960 /2

$90 + 4= $94 /980= 0.0959

therefore Yield to maturity is 9.59%

B)   After tax cost of debt =    Yield To Maturity  x (1 - tax rate)

=9.59% x (1-20%)= 9.59% x (1-0.2 )= 9.59% x 0.8 =

9.59 % x 80%=7.672%

Discuss three major factors that contribute to an employee's decision to join a union. Discuss the five reasons that have contributed to the trend of decline in unionization g

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Three major factors that contribute to an employee's decision to join a union.

1. Greater Bargaining Power

As an individual employee, it can be difficult to negotiate for wage increase or better working condition generally. However, being a member Union, together the group can negotiate and demand for what they feel is right for their members. In a rare occasion, the threat of a strike by a Union is a great tool to bargain well with the employer.

2. Minimize Discrimination

As a Union, it is easier to demand for equality in terms of wage, working condition, promotion, leave etc. Unlike individual employee, who may be facing discrimination from his or her supervisor as to employee related issue. Union can ensure the management used the right policies that seek for equality among all its employees without favoritism or discrimination.

3. Sense of Security

An employee may join the Union on the basis that, Union can save them against abrupt dismissal or other types of work insecurities including accident, injury, illness etc.

Also, Union can help secure retirement benefits and ensure the management improve on the employees' welfare generally.

Five reasons that have contributed to the trend of decline in unionization

1. Irrelevance appearance of the Union:

Many workers believe that Union is not necessary because in the time of economic boom, getting wage increase and other working benefits can be gotten be individual employee and not necessarily through a Union, and at the same time, during economic downturn, unions often times don't have the capacity to protect their members from layoffs, wage and benefit reductions and tougher working conditions.

2. Poor Image of the Union:

Piper's Pizza sold baking equipment for $25,000. The equipment was originally purchased for $72,000, and depreciation through the date of sale totaled $51,000. What was the gain or loss on the sale of the equipment?
Sale amount
Less:
Cost of the baking equipment
Book value

Answers

Answer:

$4,000 gain

Explanation:

The calculation of gain or loss on the sale of the equipment is shown below:-

Gain or loss on the sale of the equipment = Sales - Cost of the baking equipment - Accumulated Depreciation

= $25,000 - ($72,000 - $51,000)

= $25,000 - $21,000

= $4,000

Therefore for computing the gain or sale we simply applied the above formula.

f the nominal interest rate is 7 percent and the real interest rate "is -2.5" percent, then the inflation rate is

Answers

Answer:

9.7%

Explanation:

(1 + nominal interest rate) = (1 + real rate) x (1 + inflation rate)

1.07 = 0.975 x (1 + inflation rate)

(1 + inflation rate) = 1.07 / 0.975

(1 + inflation rate) = 1.097

Inflation rate = 1.097 - 1 = 0.097 = 9.7%

If accounting profits for a firm are 20% of output, and the opportunity cost of financial capital is 8% of output, then what do the firm's economic profits equal

Answers

Answer: 12%

Explanation:

The Economic profits for a firm refers to the revenue received less all implicit and explicit costs.

The implicit costs would be all the costs associated with the inputs into the goods sold and explicit costs will be the opportunity cost.

Accounting profits already account for implicit costs so the formula for Economic profit is;

= Accounting profit - Opportunity cost

= 20% - 8%

= 12%

Based on the information given the firm's economic profits equal 12%  of output.

Economic profit=Accounting profit - Opportunity cost

Where:

Opportunity cos=8%

Let plug in the formula

Economic profit= 20% - 8%

Economic profit= 12%

Inconclusion the firm's economic profits equal 12%  of output.

n the cash flow information for the Ping Kings project, Ping spent $300,000 for research and development of the golf clubs. Ping's tax rate is 40%. How much of this cost should be included in the initial (t = 0) cash flow for this project

Answers

Answer: C. $0

Explanation:

When including initial costs in a project's cash-flow, the relevant costs are those that henceforth will be spent on the project. Sunk costs are not to be included because they have already been incurred and cannot be recovered.

Research and Development costs have already been incurred and so are sunk costs. Hence they are not to be included in the initial cash-flow for the project.

The amount of the cost that should be included in the initial (t = 0) cash flow for Ping Kings' Project is D. $300,000.

This is a cash outlay (outflow).  It bears a negative value.  The initial cash flow cannot be $120,000, $180,000, or $0 because of Ping's tax rate of 40%. Under the FASB, Research and Development costs are capitalized.

Secondly, tax is not applied on capital investment but its net income.

In addition to the purchase price, FVI makes the following expenditures related to the acquisition: broker's commission, $21,000; title insurance, $1,100; and miscellaneous closing costs, $4,200. The warehouse is immediately demolished at a cost of $21,000 in anticipation of building a new warehouse. Determine the amount FVI should record as the cost of the land.

Answers

Answer:

$457,300

Explanation:

FVI purchased a land and warehouse at the cost of $410,000

The following expenditures were incurred

Broker's commission = $21,000

Title insurance= $1,100

Miscellaneous closing costs= $4,200

Demolition of the warehouse= $21,000

Therefore, the amount in which FVI should record as cost of the land can be calculated as follows

=$410,000+$21,000+$1,100+$4,200+$21,000

= $457,300

Hence the amount that FVI should record as the cost of the land is $457,300

Answer:

Carrying value December 31, 2018 = $24,137.50

Explanation:

the numbers are missing, so I looked for a similar question to fill in the blanks:

Waller Sales issued $30,000 in bonds for $23,300. These are eight-year bonds with a stated rate of 11%

The journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds:

January 1, 2018, bonds are issued at a discount:

Dr Cash 23,300

Dr Discount on bonds payable 6,700

    Cr Bonds payable 30,000

discount amortization = $6,700 / 16 coupons = $418.75 per coupon payment

First and second coupon payments:

June 30 (or December 31), 2018, coupon payments

Dr Interest expense 3,718.75

    Cr Cash 3,300

    Cr Discount on bonds payable 418.75

Carrying value June 30, 2018 = $23,300 + $418.75 = $23,718.75

Carrying value December 31, 2018 = $23,300 + $418.75 = $24,137.50

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.
