In 2010, Toyota recalled millions of automobiles to fix a potentially hazardous problem known as sudden acceleration. Writing in the Wall Street Journal, James Stewart gave investors the following advice: "Toyota shares were over $90 as recently as Jan. 19, 2010. They closed Tuesday (February 02, 2010) at $78.18, which strikes me as a modest decline under the circumstances. If I owned shares, I’d seize the chance to get out.
Required:
Would a believer in the efficient markets theory be likely to follow Stewart's advice?
Answer:
Of course not. Someone that believes in the efficient market theory (or hypothesis as it is generally called), believes that the market is always right. As an individual investor, you might be right or wrong, but the market as a whole has access to perfect information and the price of each stock already has been determined factoring all possible events and outcomes. I.e. the market's price is always the correct price and there is no way in which an individual investor can make a profit by buying or selling undervalued or overvalued stocks.
Personally, I disagree with this hypothesis, and the reason why most people call is a hypothesis is that they disagree with it. If the market is always right, then this theory is no good.
n California, any apartment building with this many units must have an onsite manager, who is also known as a residential manager. What is the number of units to which this statement refers? Ten or more. Twelve or more. Sixteen or more. Twenty or more+.
Answer:
Sixteen or more.
Explanation:
It is mandatory by law in California to have an onsite manager, housekeeper, janitor, or another responsible person reside in a building with more than 16 apartments. Onsite means the manager or caretaker must be a resident in the building complex. The manager's role is to attend to the tenant's needs and offer protection to their properties. This requirement applies if the landlord is not a resident in the apartment building.
Consider a simple example economy where there are two goods, coconuts and restaurant meals (coconut-based). There are two firms. A coconut producer collects and sells 10 million coconuts at $2.00 each. The firm pays $5 million in wages, $0.5 million in interest on an old loan, and $1.5 million in taxes to the government. We also know that 4 million coconuts are sold to the public for consumption, and 6 million coconuts are sold to the restaurant firm, which uses them to prepare meals. The restaurant sells $30 million in meals. The restaurant pays $4 million in wages and the government $3 million in taxes. The government supplies security and accounting services and employs only labor, and government workers are paid $5.5 million, collected in taxed by the government. Finally, consumers pay $1 million in taxes to the government in addition to the taxes paid by the two firms.
Required:
a. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the product approach.
b. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the expenditure approach.
c. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the income approach.
d. Now, suppose that the coconut producer cannot sell 1 million coconuts during the course of the year. These are collected coconuts that are not sold to the public (assume that sales to the other firm, the restaurant, remain the same).
e. How does this new piece of information affect your calculations in the expenditure approach? Explain.
A) Product Approach
GDP = Value added of all industries
Value added = revenue - intermediate costs
Value added coconut producer = $20,000,000 (it does not have intermediate costs)
Value added restaurant = $30,000,000 - $12,000,000 (cost of coconuts)
= $18,000,000
Value added government = $5,500,000 (collected in taxes, $3 million from the restaurant, $1.5 million from the coconut producer, and $1 million from consumers).
GDP = $20,000,000 + $18,000,000 + $5,500,000
= $43,000,000
B) Expenditure Approach
GDP = Consumption + Investment + Government Spending + Net Exports
Consumption = $8,000,000 in coconuts + $30,000,000 in meals
= $38,000,000
Investment = $0
Government Spending = $5,500,000 in government wages
Net Exports = $0 (it is a closed-economy)
GDP = $38,000,000 + $0 + $5,500,000 + $0
= $43,500,000
C) Income Approach
Wages = $14,500,000
Corporate Profits = $24,000,000
Interest income = $500,000
Taxes = $4,500,000
GDP = $43,500,000
e. How does this new piece of information affect your calculations in the expenditure approach? Explain.
GDP under the expenditure approach, would rise by the value of the unsold coconuts ($1 million) as long as the coconuts were harvested in the given year. This is because inventory produced in the given year, is part of that year's GDP.
Randy likes baseball more than football, football more than basketball, and basketball more than baseball. Which assumption about consumer preferences does this violate
Answer:
transitivity
Explanation:
As it is given that
Baseball > football
football > basketball
Basketball > baseball
Based on the above information
The consumer preference of transitivity is violated as the transitivity refers to a process in which the preference of the one good is given over another good
So in the given situation, the third option is correct and the same is to be considered
Acute Company manufactures a single product. On December 31, 2014, it adopted the dollar-value LIFO inventory method. The inventory on that date using the dollar-value LIFO inventory method was determined to be $300,000. Inventory data for succeeding years follow:
Year Ended December 31 Inventory at Respective Year-End Prices Relevant Price Index (Base Year 2014)
2015 $363,000 1.10
2016 420,000 1.20
2017 430,000 1.25
Required:
Compute the inventory amounts at December 31, 2015, 2016, and 2017, using the dollar-value LIFO inventory method for each year.
Answer:
Acute Company
Year Ended December 31 Inventory at
Respective Year-End Prices Relevant Price Index Dollar-value LIFO
2015 $363,000 1.10 $330,000
2016 420,000 1.20 350,000
2017 430,000 1.25 344,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Year Ended December 31 Inventory at Respective Year-End Prices Relevant Price Index (Base Year 2014)
Year Year-End Prices Price Index
2015 $363,000 1.10
2016 420,000 1.20
2017 430,000 1.25
Dollar-value LIFO:
2015 = $363,000/1.10 = $330,000
2016 = $420,000/1.20 = $350,000
2017 = $430,000/1.25 = $344,000
b) The implication is that the respective year-end prices are re-calculated using the 2014 base year index. This prunes the effect of inflation on the most recent prices when compared to the base year of 2014. It makes the ending inventories for the years to be comparable since the inflation-influenced cause has been removed.
The Hifalutin Co. has perpetual EBIT of $3,000. It has no debt in its capital structure, and its cost of equity is 15%. The corporate tax rate is 40%. There are 300 shares outstanding. Hifalutin has announced that it will borrow $3,750 in perpetual debt at 8% and use the proceeds to buy up stock. How many shares will be purchased
Answer:
The right answer is "56 shares".
Explanation:
According to the question,
Earning per share is:
= [tex]\frac{3000}{300}[/tex]
= $[tex]10[/tex]
PE ratio will be:
= [tex]\frac{1}{ke}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{15}[/tex]
= [tex]6.67[/tex]
Market price at every share will be:
= [tex]PE \ ratio\times EPS[/tex]
= [tex]6.67\times 10[/tex]
= [tex]66.7 \ Per \ share[/tex] ($)
Now,
The number of purchased shares will be:
= [tex]\frac{borrow}{market \ price \ per \ share}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{3750}{66.7}[/tex]
= [tex]56.22[/tex]
i.e.,
= [tex]56 \ shares[/tex]
Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $64,000 and $12,000, respectively. In addition to their salaries, they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $500 from corporate bonds. Marc contributed $2,500 to an individual retirement account, and Marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $1,500 (under a divorce decree effective June 1, 2005). Marc and Michelle have a 10-year-old son, Matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, Marc and Michelle are allowed to claim a $1,000 child tax credit for Matthew. Marc and Michelle paid $6,000 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $5,500 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the course of the year. (use the 2016 tax rate schedules).
1. What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle’s deductions from AGI?
2. What is Marc and Michelle’s taxable income?
3. What is Marc and Michelle’s taxable income?
Answer:
$24750
$47750
Explanation:
Total amount of Marc and Michelle's deduction. From AGI:
MAX of (ITEMIZED DEDUCTION or MARRIED FILING JOINTLY)
2016 TAX SCHEDULE :
STANDARD DEDUCTION FOR MARRIED FILING JOINTLY = $12600
Personal and dependency deduction = 4,050
(4050 * 3). = $12,150
Deduction from AGI = $12,600 + $12,150 = $24750
Taxable income :
Gross income = (Marc and Michelle's salary + corporate bond)
= $(64000 + 12000 + 500) = $76500
Contribution + alimony = ($2500 + $1500) = 4000
Taxable income = ($76500 - 4000 - 24750) = $47750

3. Explain the reason for the difference in the amount of income from operations reported in (1) and (2).
The income from operations reported under absorption costing exceeds the income from operations reported under variable costing by the difference between the two, due to fixed manufacturing costs that are deferred to a future month under absorption costing.

Nanjones Company manufactures a line of products distributed nationally through wholesalers. Presented below are planned manufacturing data for the year and actual data for November of the current year. The company applies overhead based on planned machine hours using a predetermined annual rate.
Planning Data
Annual November
Fixed manufacturing overhead $1,200,000 $100,000
Variable manufacturing overhead 2,400,000 220,000
Direct labor hours 48,000 4,000
Machine hours 240,000 20,000
Data for November
Direct labor hours (actual) 4,200
Direct labor hours (plan based on output) 4,000
Machine hours (actual) 21,600
Machine hours (plan based on output) 21,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead $101,200
Variable manufacturing overhead $214,000
The fixed overhead volume variance for November was
a. $1,200 unfavorable.
b. $5,000 favorable.
c. $5,000 unfavorable.
d. $10,000 favorable.
Answer:
Manufacturing overhead volume variance= $1,200 unfavorable
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Fixed Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,200,000/240,000
Fixed Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $5 per machine hour
Now, to calculate the fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance, we need to use the following formula:
Manufacturing overhead volume variance = Actual Factory Overhead - Budgeted Allowance Based on Standard Hours
Manufacturing overhead volume variance= (101,200) - (5*20,000)
Manufacturing overhead volume variance= $1,200 unfavorable
Bristo Corporation has sales of 1,750 units at $40 per unit. Variable expenses are 30% of the selling price. If total fixed expenses are $39,000, the degree of operating leverage is:
Answer:
1,750=$40=1,750×40=70-30÷100×39,000=58,3
Explanation:
is total cost of production can be fixed cost +variable cost
Answer:
degree of operating leverage= 4.9
Explanation:
To calculate the degree of operating leverage, we need to use the following formula:
degree of operating leverage= Total contribution margin / operating income
Total Contribution margin= 1,750*(40*0.7)= $49,000
Operating income= 49,000 - 39,000= $10,000
degree of operating leverage= 49,000/10,000
degree of operating leverage= 4.9

Despite its status as one of the richest countries in the world, Japan a. has a very low level of productivity. b. has few natural resources. c. has very little human capital. d. engages in a relatively small amount of international trade.
Answer:
b. has few natural resources.
Explanation:
Japan is one of the largest economies in the world, and even though it is a country with few natural resources, it managed to reach this level because it is a country whose main economic activities are focused on exports, according to production based on the Toyotist system, which is a on-demand manufacturing system, which reduces waste throughout the production process, which guarantees significant advantages. There is also a culture based on quality, innovation, education and technological development.
Japan's high population density constitutes a high human capital for work, which justifies the greater commercialization of goods and services. All of these factors justify how Japan became the world's third largest economy.
The Aleutian Company uses departmental overhead rates. The Fabrication Department uses machine hours for an allocation base, and the Assembly Department uses labor hours. What is the Assembly Department overhead rate per labor hour
Answer:
$4.425 per labor hour
Explanation:
Note: The full question has been attached as picture
Product Rings Labor Hours = 1030 units x 4 labor hours per unit
Product Rings Labor Hours = 4,120 hours
Product Dings Labor Hours = 1810 units x 7 Labor hour per unit
Product Dings Labor Hours = 12,670 hours
Hence, the total Labor Hours = 4,120 hours + 12,670 hours = 16,790 hours
The total Assembly Department Overhead is estimated to be $74,300. Hence, the Assembly Department Overhead rate per labor hour = Total Overhead / Total Labor Hours
Assembly Department Overhead rate = $74,300 / 16,790
Assembly Department Overhead rate = $4.425
The price of a stock is $55 at the beginning of the year and $50 at the end of the year. If the stock paid a $3 dividend and inflation was 3%, what is the real holding-period return for the year? -3.64% -6.36% -6.44% -11.74%
Answer:
Real holding period return = - 6.44% (Approx)
Explanation:
Holding period return = [Dividend + (Price of share ending - Price of share start)] / Price of share start
Holding period return = [3 + (50-55)] / 55
Holding period return = -2 / 55
Holding period return = -0.0363636
Real holding period return = [(1 + Holding period return)/(1 + Inflation)] - 1
Real holding period return = [(1 - 0.0363636)/(1+0.03)]-1
Real holding period return = - 0.06443
Real holding period return = - 6.44% (Approx)
In early 2016, the same Germany machinery company has interest from four prospective clients from emerging markets: Indonesia, Brazil, Russia, and South Africa. They all want to buy ten machines, but the factory can only produce ten in time. Therefore, the company has to choose only one client. Given the volatility of the domestic currencies of the four prospective clients, the CFO would like to choose the client which is least likely to cancel the order due to currency volatility. The invoice comes due on June 30, 2016. According to volatility alone, which prospective client would be most likely to cancel the order?
Answer:
Brazil
Explanation:
According to the picture below, Brazilian real is the currency that has the lowers currency volatility, its spot is 4.0685, and its forward is 4.1820. These values are way lower than the values of the other three currencies, and for this reason, the CFO should choose the Brazilian client, clearly.
Indonesia is the country that is most likely to cancel this order. This is due to its high volatility.
Following the volatility chart that is attached to this question we can clearly spot that Indonesia has the most likelihood to cancel the order.
The volatility of the currency of the country Indonesia is shown to be high and this high volatility is very much going to have an impact on trade.
When there is a weakness in the currency of a nation, the cost of import would go up.

how globalization has changed jobs in an organization where you have worked. What are some HR responses to those changes
Explanation:
Globalization is a phenomenon that has interconnected the world in a political, economic, social and cultural way, which means that this phenomenon has had a significant impact on an organization's business world and HR sector.
An organization that is present in a globalized world, will need to develop new ways of carrying out processes, since this environment is increasingly competitive and needs creativity and innovation for a company to remain well positioned in the market. It is also necessary to highlight that people have new work demands and seek to work in companies that exercise corporate governance and improve their socio-environmental environment.
Therefore, HR was positively impacted by globalization in a positive way, establishing an integration of its processes and people, in order to seek cultural and professional diversity in the recruited professionals, which combine greater innovation and competence for the company. In addition, organizations are more flexible and open to communication, assertiveness, self-management and processes that assist in innovation, motivation and continuous improvement of processes.

A remotely located air sampling station can be powered by solar cells or by running an electric line to the site and using conventional power. Solar cells will cost $12,600 to install and will have a useful life of 4 years with no salvage value. Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. are expected to be $1,400. A new power line will cost $11,000 to install, with power costs expected to be $800 per year. Since the air sampling project will end in 4 years, the salvage value of the line is considered to be zero. At an interest rate of 10% per year, which alternative should be selected on the basis of a future worth analysis?
Answer:
Since the total future worth of running an electric line of $19,353.42 is less than the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22, it implies that it will be cheaper to run an electric line than to use solar cells. Therefore, running an electric line should be selected.
Explanation:
The future worth analysis refers to an act of determining what the the worth of present amount of money or stream of money invested at an interest rate will after in some period or years to come.
To determine which one to select between solar cells and running an electric line, the we need to calculate the future worth of both and compared as follows:
a. Calculation of future value of solar cells
Calculation of future worth of $12,600 installation cost
FW of $12,600 = PW of $12,600 * (1 + r)^n ................ (1)
Where;
FW of $12,600 = Future worth of $12,600 installation cost = ?
PW of $12,600 = Present worth of $12,600 installation cost = $12,600
r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10
n = number of years = 4
Substitute the values into equation (1), we have:
FW of $12,600 = $12,600 * (1 + 0.10)^4
FW of $12,600 = $12,600 * 1.4641
FW of $12,600 = $18,447.66
Calculation of future worth of annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400
The future worth of annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400 can also be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FW of $1,400 = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (2)
Where,
FW of $1,400 = Future value of Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400 =?
M = Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. = $1,400
r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10
n = number of years = 4
Substitute the values into equation (2), we have:
FW of $1,400 = $1,400 * (((1 + 0.01)^4 - 1) / 0.01)
FW of $1,400 = $1,400 * 4.060401
FW of $1,400 = $5,684.56
Calculation of total future worth of solar cells
This is calculated by simply adding the FW of $12,600 and FW of $1,400 as follows:
Total future worth of solar cells = FW of $12,600 + FW of $1,400 = $18,447.66 + $5,684.56 = $24,132.22
Therefore, the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22.
b. Calculation of future value of running an electric line
Calculation of future worth of $11,000 installation cost
FW of $11,000 = PW of $11,000 * (1 + r)^n ................ (3)
Where;
FW of $11,000 = Future worth of $11,000 installation cost = ?
PW of $11,000 = Present worth of $11,000 installation cost = $11,000
r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10
n = number of years = 4
Substitute the values into equation (3), we have:
FW of $11,000 = $11,000 * (1 + 0.10)^4
FW of $11,000 = $11,000 * 1.4641
FW of $11,000 = $16,105.10
Calculation of future worth of expected annual power costs of $800
The future worth of expected annual power costs of $800 can also be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FW of $800 = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (4)
Where,
FW of $800 = Future value of expected annual power costs of $800 =?
M = Expected annual power costs = $800
r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10
n = number of years = 4
Substitute the values into equation (4), we have:
FW of $800 = $800 * (((1 + 0.01)^4 - 1) / 0.01)
FW of $800 = $800 * 4.060401
FW of $800 = $3,248.32
Calculation of total future worth of running an electric line
This is calculated by simply adding the FW of $11,000 and FW of $800 as follows:
Total future worth of running an electric line = FW of $11,000 + FW of $800 = $16,105.10 + $3,248.32 = $19,353.42
Therefore, the total future worth of running an electric line is $19,353.42.
c. Conclusion
Since the total future worth of running an electric line of $19,353.42 is less than the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22, it implies that it will be cheaper to run an electric line than to use solar cells. Therefore, running an electric line should be selected.
Rachel pushed very hard to go with Project A rather than Project B. There have been several cost overruns, the project is two weeks beyond its projected finish date, and the technology just isn't working out as planned. Rachel increases the funding for the third time and hires three new designers to help revamp the look of the product. Rachel is engaging in _____.
Answer: escalation of commitment
Explanation:
Escalation of commitment is when an individual or firm chooses an option which tends to be unsuccessful but the individual or firm still continues with the project because there has been investment which has already been made on it.
From the question, we are told that Rachel pushed very hard to go with Project A rather than Project B. From the information given, despite the fact that project A has been unsuccessful, Rachel continued with it and invested more in it rather than changing or leaving it for project B. This shows that Rachel is engaging in escalation of commitment.

One of the disadvantages of the sole proprietorship is related to the fact that the amount of equity capital that can be raised to finance the business is limited to the owner's personal wealth. ____________ is about determining how the firm should finance or pay for assets. The risk manager monitors and manages the firm's risk exposure in financial and commodity markets and the firm's relationships with insurance providers. Privately held, or closely held, corporations are typically owned by a small number of investors, and their shares are not traded publicly.
Answer:
The missing word is: Financial Risk
Explanation:
To begin with, the name of "Financial Risk" is used in the field of business and finances in order to explain that the companies, and also the government, have to find a way to determine how the firm will finance itself so that they could pay for all the assets they own. Moreover, this financial term implicates the loss of the money that can happen when the company needs to invest in assets and the operations may not go right.
