Answer 1

Answer:

Accept it.(Risk).

Explanation:

This is commonly known also as risk retention which is been encountered in business or investments. Many businesses use risk management techniques to identify, assess and prioritize risks for the purpose of minimizing, monitoring, and controlling said risks.

Most businesses and risk management personnel will find that they have greater and more numerous risks than they can manage, mitigate, or avoid given the resources they are allocated. As such, businesses must find a balance between the potential costs of an issue resulting from a known risk and the expense involved in avoiding or otherwise dealing with it. Types of risks include uncertainty in financial markets, project failures, legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural causes and disasters, and overly aggressive competition.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: recognizes that the return from the last dollar of funds generated should be greater than or equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised.

Explanation:

To begin with, the concept of ''marginal cost of capital'' refers to the composite rate of return that is required by the shareholders and the debt-holders in order to establish a new investment in the actual company. Moreover, this type of cost relates to the weighted average cost of the last dollar of new capital raised by the company and is has the necessity of being greater than or at least equal to the cost of the last dollar of funds raised due to the fact that only in that way the investors will consider to invest again in a new project for the company.

A well-known financial writer argues that he can earn 148 percent per year buying wine by the case. Specifically, he assumes that he will consume one $12 bottle of fine Bordeaux per week for the next 12 weeks. He can either pay $12 per week or buy a case of 12 bottles today. If he buys the case, he receives a 9 percent discount and, by doing so, earns the 148 percent. Assume he buys the wine and consumes the first bottle today. Calculate the EAR.

Answers

Answer:

EAR = 148%

Explanation:

calculating the EAR ( applying the formula for present value of annuity )

cost of case = 12 * 12 * ( 1 - 0.09 ) = 131.04

Pv   =  131.04

cost per case =  $12

no of weeks = 12 weeks

rate of the wine per ( IRR ) = IRR(57;56;55;;;;1)=  1.76319

rate of the wine per week = 1.76319%

therefore EAR = ( 1 + 0.0176319) ^52 - 1 = 148.15% ≈ 148%

Dr FICA Social Security expense 6,600Dr FICA Medicare expense 1,650Dr Federal unemployment tax expense 200Dr State unemployment tax expense 1,350     Cr FICA Social Security payable 6,600     Cr FICA Medicare payable 1,650     Cr Federal unemployment tax payable 200     Cr State unemployment tax payable 1,350

Explanation:

payroll taxes should be:

social security $110,000 x 6% = $6,600

Medicare $110,000 x 1.5% = $1,650

federal unemployment $25,000 x 0.8% = $200

state unemployment $25,000 x 5.4% = $1,350

total = $9,800

Both employees and employers must pay equal amounts of FICA taxes (social security and medicare), but only employees pay unemployment taxes.

In January 2020, Sunland Company, a newly formed company, issued 10300 shares of its $8 par common stock for $13 per share. On July 1, 2020, Sunland Company reacquired 1030 shares of its outstanding stock for $10 per share. The acquisition of these treasury shares decreased total stockholders' equity. increased total stockholders' equity. did not change total stockholders' equity. decreased the number of issued shares.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is the acquisition of these treasury shares decreased total stockholders' equity.

By repurchasing 1,030 treasury stock at $10,the total stockholders' equity decrease by $10,300,which leaves a balance of $123,600 ($133,900-$10,300).

In other words,the first option is the correct choice of answer

The predetermined overhead rate is $37 per direct labor-hour. Required: What's the unit product cost that would appear on the job cost sheet for this job

Answers

Answer:

$36.24

Explanation:

The computation of unit product cost is shown below:-

Unit product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead) ÷ Unit completed

= ($59,400 + (1254 × $11) + (1254 × $37)) ÷ 3,300

= ($59,400 + $13,794 + $46,398) ÷ 3,300

= $119,592 ÷ 3,300

= $36.24

Therefore for computing the units product cost we simply applied the above formula.

The budgeted cost of goods sold for June would be

Answers

Answer:

The budgeted cost of goods sold for June would be $ 13,320,000

Explanation:

Budgeted cost per unit = $30

Sales budget = 370,000 units

Less: Beginning inventory = 86,000 units

Add: Ending inventory = 160,000 units

Therefore budgeted cost of goods sold for June = (370,000 - 86,000 + 160,000) × $30

= 444,000 × $30

= $13,320,000

Company A sells paper coffee cups to all Caribou Coffee locations in the US. Company B sells dinner plates to Applebee’s. Company A charges $1 for a pack of 100 cups and Company B charges $3 for 1 dinner plate. Tell us exactly what information you would need to determine whether Company A or Company B has higher annual revenue and explain how you would calculate these two figures.

Answers

Answer:

Company A and Company B

Determination of annual revenue:

a) The information needed to determine which company has higher annual revenue include:

i) The annual quantities of packs of paper coffee cups sold to the Caribou Coffee locations in the US for a number of years.

ii) The annual quantities of dinner plates sold to Applebee's for the same years as above.

b) The annual revenues can be calculated by multiplying the price for a pack of 100 cups by the annual quantity sold.

Explanation:

Revenue is a function of price and quantity sold.  The price is unit selling price and the quantity depends on the period for which revenue is being computed.

Revenue is the earnings from the sale of goods and services.  The excess of revenue over cost of sales gives the gross profit, from which expenses would be deducted to arrive at net income after adding other incomes from non-operational activities.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Lerner Index = -1 / Elasticity of demand = (P - MC) / P

(1) Canada:

- 1 / Ec = (21.4 - 1.20) / 21.4

- 1 / Ec = 20.2 / 21.4

- 1 / Ec = 0.9344

Ec = -1 / 0.9344

Ec = - 1.059

(2) Japan:

Lerner Index = -1 / Elasticity of demand = (P - MC) / P

- 1 / Ej = (32 - 1.2) / 32

- 1 / Ej = 30.8 / 32

- 1 / Ej = 0.9625

Ej = -1 / 0.9625

Ej = - 1.039

standard price=$2,609/1,170 grams

standard price=$2.23 per gram

The standard price per gram for Whiplash, Ltd. is closest to $2.23 per gram

Answers

Answer:

The amount of Bad Debt Expense recognized during the year is $41,500.

Which of the following would shift the long-run aggregate supply curve right? a. both an increase in the capital stock and an increase in the price level b. an increase in the capital stock, but not an increase in the price level c. an increase in the money supply, but not an increase in the capital stock d. neither an increase in the money supply nor an increase in the capital stock

Answers

Answer:

b. an increase in the capital stock, but not an increase in the price level.

Explanation:

In order to understand both short-run economic fluctuations and how the economy movement from short to long run, we need the aggregate supply and aggregate demand model.

An increase in the capital stock, but not an increase in the price level would shift the long-run aggregate supply curve right.

The long-run aggregate supply curve would shift rightward when immigration from foreign countries rises or technology improves.

When the price level rises, the wealth effect and the interest-rate effect provide incentives for consumers to spend less. The price level of goods and services in an economy influences the exchange rate, imports and exports
