Answer: Opportunity cost
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the cost of what one forgoes when one makes another decision or another choice. When estimating the incremental after-tax free cash flows for a project, the opportunity cost is included.
A sunk cost is a type of cost that an economic agent such as the individual, the firm or the government has already spent and therefore cannot be recovered again. This isn't included.
Just how strong the competitive pressures are from substitute products depends on: Select one: a. Whether the available substitutes are products or services b. The speed with which buyer needs and expectations are changing c. Whether attractively priced substitutes are readily available and the ease with which buyers can switch to substitutes d. Whether the producers of substitutes have ample budgets for new product R
Answer: c. Whether attractively priced substitutes are readily available and the ease with which buyers can switch to substitutes
Explanation:
Substitute products are the product that can be used in place of another identical product e.g butter and margarine.
Just how strong the competitive pressures are from substitute products depends on whether attractively priced substitutes are readily available and the ease with which buyers can switch to substitutes.
A stock is bought for $24.00 and sold for $26.00 one year later, immediately after it has paid a dividend of $1.50. What is the capital gain rate for this transaction?
Answer:
8.33%
Explanation:
A stock is bought for $23.00
The stock is sold for $26 after one year
The dividend paid is $1.50
Therefore, the capital gain rate can be calculated as follows
Capital gain= P1-Po/Po
= 26-24/24
= 2/24
= 0.0833 ×100
= 8.33%
Hence the capital gain rate for this transaction is 8.33%

Answer and Explanation:
a. Connie registers $13,500 of ordinary revenue or 5% of the LLC's $270,000 property. Her LLC investment base is $13,500 as well.
b. Connie does not disclose any profits but will have an interest rate equal to her share of the LLC 's debt in the LLC. Since debt from the LLC is a non-recourse loan, it needs to be distributed to her through interest on earnings from Connie. Therefore her investment in the LLC is equivalent to $2,150 or 5% of the $43,000 accounts payable by the LLC.
c. Connie reports $13,500 of ordinary revenue or 5 percent of the $270,000 capital of the LLC. Her LLC interest base is $13,500, too. Her base in the LLC is $15,650 consists of the $13,500 benefit she accepts for earning her capital gain and her $2,150 non-recourse tax payable from the LLC.
Rather than crediting the Unearned rent account for $400 of prepaid rent received from a customer, which explains an alternate recording procedure to journalize this receipt?
Answer:
Record receipt with a credit to the rent revenue account
Any unused portion of the prepayment still existing at the end of the period will be transferred to the Unearned rent account
Explanation:
Prepaid rent is an income that is to be earned at a future date. Since income is normally recorded as a revenue when it is earned, we usually credit Unearned Rent account.
However financial statements are made at end of a defined period (for example monthly, quarterly, biannually, or yearly).
The journal entry can be credited to the Rent Revenue account directly. At the end of the period the amount earned is retained in the account, and the unearned portion of the prepaid rent is transferred to the Unearned Rent account.
So financial statements will only recognise earned income when prepared.
Window Dressing causes which kind of entry (may have more than one answer)? Multiple Choice Transaction Adjusting Closing
Answer:
Window Dressing causes Adjusting and Closing entries.
Explanation:
Window Dressing the alteration of financial performance near the year-end to appear as if performance has improved. To make the window dressing entry, some temporary and permanent accounts will be adjusted, especially Sales Revenue and costs to generate paper profits. These adjusting entries are closed to the Income Summary. The permanent accounts which are temporarily closed to the Balance Sheet for the period will also require some adjusting entries.
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
Potential output: $8 trillion Actual output: $6 trillion Actual Deficit: $ 400 billion Tax Rate: 15% What is the structural deficit in 2010
Answer:
The structural budget in 2010 is $100 billion
Explanation:
Actual deficit = Government spending - Tax Revenue Collection
i.e Actual deficit = G-T
T = (Tax rate) (Actual output)
$400 billion = G - (0.15)($6000 billion)
$400 billion = G - $900 billion
G = $400 billion + $900 billion
G = $1300 billion
Thus, Government spending is $1300 billion
Structural deficit = G - T'
T' = (Tax rate)(Potential output)
T' = (0.15)(8000 billion)
T' = $1200 billion
Structural deficit = G - T'
Structural deficit = $1300 billion - $1200 billion
Structural deficit = $100 billion
Thus, the structural budget in 2010 is $100 billion
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

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%

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.
Let's say that you choose to buy bread in a grocery store. According to the marginal benefit and marginal cost principle, how many loaves of bread will you purchase if you know the following:
A loaf of bread costs $2.00. Each dollar is worth 100 utils to you (so $2 is worth 200 utils). The first loaf of bread gives you 400 utils of satisfaction. The second loaf of bread gives you 320 utils of satisfaction. The third loaf of bread gives you 280 utils of satisfaction. The fourth loaf of bread gives you 220 utils of satisfaction. The fifth loaf of bread gives you 160 utils of satisfaction. The sixth loaf of bread gives you 30 utils of satisfaction. The seventh loaf of bread gives you no more additional utils.
1. Four loaves.
2. One loaf.
3. Three loaves.
4. Two loaves.
5. Six loaves.
6. Five loaves.
7. Seven loaves.
It will be advisable to purchase six loaves of bread to derive the optimum amount of marginal utility upon consumption. Hence, option 6 is correct.
What is marginal utility?The utility derived upon consumption of each additional unit of a product, given that other things remain constant, is known as the marginal utility derived.
It has been provided that the utility derived upon the consumption of seventh loaf will not derive further utility. And thus, six loaves derive optimum amount of utility for the consumer.
Hence, option 6 holds true regarding deriving the marginal utility.

A stock had returns of 9.62 percent, −14.65 percent, 19.85 percent, 25.35 percent, and 7.65 percent over the past five years. What was the geometric average return for this stock?
Answer:
The geometric average return for this stock was 8.64%.
Explanation:
Geometric average return refers to the return which will result in the correct compounded dollars at the end of the time period.
Geometric average return can be computed using the following formula:
Geometric average return = {[(1 + r1)(1 + r2) ... (1 + rn)]^(1/n)} - 1 ......... (1)
Where r is returns from year 1 to year n.
For the stock in the question, we have:
r1 = 9.62%, 0.0962
r2 = -14.65%, or -0.1465
r3 = 19.85%, or 0.1985
r4 = 25.35%, or 0.2535
r5 = 7.65%, or 0.0765
n = 5
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Geometric average return = {[(1 + 0.0962)(1 - 0.1465)(1 + 0.1985)(1 + 0.2535)(1 + 0.0765)]^(1/5)} - 1
Geometric average return = {1.51310732605096^0.20} - 1
Geometric average return = 0.0864, or 8.64%
Therefore, the geometric average return for this stock was 8.64%.

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.Universal Travel Inc. borrowed $497,000 on November 1, 2018, and signed a 12-month note bearing interest at 4%.

Krystal is 47 years old and single. She is a high school principal, making $75,000 a year. She currently owns a 401(k) valued at $85,000. Krystal would like to retire at age 65 with $1.2 million in her retirement nest egg. She plans to contribute $12,000 a year to her retirement fund, growing at 10%.Required:a. Will Krystal reach her goal? Justify your answer by using the Investment Calculator on Foundations U b. If she won't reach her goal, what needs to change in order for her to reach it? c. Is it really possible to get 10% growth in an investment fund? How?
Answer:
a) Krystal's account balance when she is 65:
$75,000 x (1 + 10%)¹⁸ = $416,993.80
$12,000 x 45.599 (FV annuity factor, 10%, 18 periods) = $547,188
total account balance = $964,181.80
Krystal will not reach her goal.
b) she need to save $1,200,000 - $964,181.80 = $235,818.20
she will need to save an extra $235,818.20 / 45.599 = $5,171.57 per year
her total contributions per year = $12,000 + $5,171.57 = $17,171.57
c) The historical growth rate of the S&P 500 is 12%, so it is really possible to earn at least 10%. Maybe the stock market is not going well right now, but you must remember that retirement accounts are long term accounts and last for many years. The market will have time to bounce back.
Piedmont Hotels is an all-equity company. Its stock has a beta of 1.23. The market risk premium is 6.9 percent and the risk-free rate is 2.7 percent. The company is considering a project that it considers riskier than its current operations so it wants to apply an adjustment of 1.9 percent to the project's discount rate. What should the firm set as the required rate of return for the project
Answer:
The required rate of return for the project will be 13.087%
Explanation:
To calculate the required rate of return for the project, we must first calculate the required rate of return for the firm's equity. The required rate of return can be calculated using the CAPM or Capital Asset Pricing Model equation. The formula for required rate of return (r) under this model is,
r = rRf + Beta * rpM
Where,
rRF is the risk free raterpM is the risk premium on marketr = 0.027 + 1.23 * 0.069
r = 0.11187 or 11.187%
The discount rate that is usually used for an all equity firm is its required rate of return. Thus, the required rate of return for the project will be,
r = 0.11187 + 0.019
r = 0.13087 or 13.087%

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

"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.

e. $17,500 preferred; $17,500 соmmоn.
Answer:
c. $12,000 preferred: $23,000 common
Explanation:
Calculation of how the Dividend should be distributed
First step is to calculate for preferred stock outstanding
Preferred stock outstanding=$150,000 * 8% non-cumulative
Preferred stock outstanding=$12,000
Second step is to calculate for common stock outstanding
Using this formula
Common stock outstanding = Cash Dividend-Preferred stock outstanding
Let plug in the formula
Common stock outstanding=$35,000-$12,000
Common stock outstanding=$23,000
Therefore Preferred stock outstanding will be $12,000 while Common stock outstanding will be $23,000
Assume that the current ratio for Arch Company is 2.5, its acid-test ratio is 2.0, and its working capital is $390,000. Answer each of the following questions independently, always referring to the original information. Required: a. How much does the firm have in current liabilities? (Round your final answer to nearest whole dollar.)
Answer:
Current liabilities = 260,000

Find:
Current liabilities
Computation:
Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities
$390,000 = Current assets - Current liabilities
Current assets = Current liabilities + $390,000
Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities
2.5 = [Current liabilities + $390,000] / Current liabilities
2.5 Current liabilities = Current liabilities + $390,000
Current liabilities = 260,000
