Answer:
c. Credit $3.00
Explanation:
The computation of the amount applied to FUTA Payable is shown below:
The Current Earnings for T. Baker is
= 50 × 10
= $500
And,
The FUTA applied is
= 6% of $500
= $3
So here we credit the futa payable by $3
Therefore the option c is correct
And, the rest of the options are wrong
Compute the Work-In-Process transferred to the finished goods warehouse on April 30 using the following information:
Work-In-Process Inventory, April 30 $245
Direct materials purchased during April $220
Work-In-Process inventory, April 1 $270
Direct labor costs incurred $370
Manufacturing overhead costs $320
Direct materials used in production $195
Answer:
$910
Explanation:
Computation for the Work-in-Process transferred to the finished goods warehouse on April 30
Using this formula
Work-in-Process transferred to finished goods warehouse=Work-In-Process Inventory, April 1+(Direct materials used in production+Direct labor costs incurred +Manufacturing overhead costs)-Work-In-Process Inventory, April 30
Let plug in the formula
Work-in-Process transferred to finished goods warehouse=$270 + ($195 + $370 + $320) - $245
Work-in-Process transferred to finished goods warehouse=$270 +$885-$245
Work-in-Process transferred to finished goods warehouse= $910
Therefore the Work-in-Process transferred to the finished goods warehouse on April 30 is $910

Suppose that the money supply and the nominal GDP for a hypothetical economy are $96 bilion and $336 bilion, respectively. (In part a round your answer to 1 decimal place. In part c enter your answer as a whole number.)a. What is the velocity of money?b. How will households and businesses react if the central bank reduces the money supply by $20 billion?
i. Households and businesses will increase spendingii. Households and businesses will not react.iii. Households and businesses will reduce spending.c. By how much will nominal GDP have to fall to restore equilibrium, according to the monetarist perspective?
Answer:
V = 3.5 (1 dollar circulates 3.5 times in a year)
In short term – Reduction of aggregate demand and real output
In long term – reduction of wages and increase of real output of firms
Nominal GDP will fall by $20 bilion
Explanation:
Equation of monetisation =
Total money in circulation = Total money demanded/total output
Money Supply * Money Velocity = Price Level * GDP
V = PY/M
Substituting the given values, we get –
V = 336/96
V = 3.5
This indicates 1 dollar circulates 3.5 times in a year
In short term – Reduction of aggregate demand and real output
In long term – reduction of wages and increase of real output of firms
Nominal GDP will fall by $20 bilion

Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 14% and a standard deviation of 30%. The T-bill rate is 6%. Your risky portfolio includes the following investments in the given proportions: Stock A 24 % Stock B 32 Stock C 44 Your client decides to invest in your risky portfolio a proportion (y) of his total investment budget with the remainder in a T-bill money market fund so that his overall portfolio will have an expected rate of return of 13%. a. What is the proportion y? (Round your answer to 1 decimal places.) b. What are your client's investment proportions in your three stocks and in T-bills? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.) c. What is the standard deviation of the rate of return on your client's portfolio?
Answer:
a. 87.5%
b. Stock A: 21%; Stock B: 28%; Stock C: 38.5%; T-bill: 12.5%
c. Standard deviation of the client's portfolio: 26.25%
Explanation:
a. y is calculated as:
Risky portfolio return * y + T-bill return * (1 - y) = Expected return of the portfolio <=> 0.14y + 0.06 ( 1-y) = 0.13 <=> y = 87.5%
b. Client investment in each stock and in T-bills:
Client investment in each stock = 0.875 * percentage of each stock in a risky portfolio ( because the risky portfolio is accounted for 87.5% of the whole investment)
=> Stock A = 24% x 0.875 = 21% ; Stock B = 32% * 0.875 = 28% ; Stock C = 44 * 0.875 = 38.5%
Client investment in T-bill = 1- y = 1 - 0.875 = 12.5%
c. Standard deviation is calculated as: Standard deviation of risky portfolio * y = 30% * 87.5% = 26.25% (because standard deviation of return in T-bill is 0)
Fones Inc. and Speed Dial Corp. are two competitors in the mobile phone market. The cost incurred by each company to manufacture smartphones is $200 per unit. Although both the companies sell their smartphones at the same price, Speed Dial Corp. has a larger market share in the smartphone industry. What does this imply
Answer: C. Speed Dial Corp has been able to offer more perceived value than Fones Inc.
Explanation:
Both companies incur the same costs to produce the phone and also sell at the same price. This means that they should be selling the same number of phones in theory. This is not the case however as Speed Dial Corp is selling more.
The reason Speed Dial must be selling more phones is that they sell a better phone for the same price. In offering more value to the customer for the same price, the customers are buying more from Speed Dial than from Fones because they are getting a better deal for the same price which means that Speed Dial's phone is undervalued.
One potential advantage of financing corporations through the use of bonds rather than common stock is: ______________
a. the corporation must pay the bonds at maturity
b. the interest on bonds must be paid when due
c. a higher earning per share is guaranteed for existing common shareholders
d. the interest expense is deductible for tax purposes by the corporation.
Answer:
d. the interest expense is deductible for tax purposes by the corporation.
Explanation:
Corporate finance can be regarded as division of finance which handles the way corporations deal with activities such as investment decisions as well as funding sources and capital structuring. Corporate finance primarily deals with maximization of shareholder value by the use of long and short-term financial planning as well as implementation of various strategies. financing of corporations could be through the use of bonds as well as use of common stock.
There are different advantages that is associated to issuing bonds instead of issuing shares of common stock, is that Interest that comes on bonds as well as other debt is deductible as regards to the income tax return of the corporation while the dividends that comes on common stock are not regarded as deductible on the income tax return. It should be noted that One potential advantage of financing corporations through the use of bonds rather than common stock is the interest expense is deductible for tax purposes by the corporation.
Phillips Co. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 20 percent for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 8 percent thereafter. If the required return is 11 percent and the company just paid a dividend of $1.45, what is the current share price
Answer:
$69.47
Explanation:
D1 = ($1.45*1.20) = $1.7
D2 = ($1.7*1.20) = $2.04
D3 = ($2.04*1.20) = $2.45
Value after year 3 = (D3*Growth Rate) / (Required rate-Growth Rate)
Value after year 3 = ($2.45*1.08) / 0.11-0.08
Value after year 3 = $2.646 / 0.03
Value after year 3 = $88.20
Current share price = Future dividend and value*Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time)
Current share price = $1.7/1.11 + $2.04/(1.11)^2 + $2.45/(1.11)^3 + $88.20/(1.11)^3
Current share price = $1.5315315 + $1.65571 + $1.7914189 + $64.49107
Current share price = $69.4697304
Current share price = $69.47

a. Answer:The corresponding probabilities are obtained by converting the percentages into probabilities. That is, by dividing each value with 100.
F/N (where F =percentage of accidents and N =100)
Explanation:
X 0 1 2 3 4
f(X) 0.096 0.57 0.238 0.077 0.019
b. The formula for the expected value of a discrete random variable is E(x)= µ=∑xf(x)
X F(X) X.f(X)
0 0.096 0
1 0.57 0.57
2 0.238 0.476
3 0.077 0.231
4 0.019 0.076
Total 1 1.353
Hence, the value for expected value of X is 1.353
The formula for the variance of the discrete random variables is Var(x)= σ² =∑(x-µ)²f(x)
X F(X) (x-µ) (x-µ)² (x-µ)².f(x)
0 0.096 -1.353 1.8306 0.1757

4 0.019 2.647 7.0066 0.1331
Total 1 3.235 12.0930 0.6884
Hence, the variance of the random variable x is 0.6884
The formula for the standard deviation of the discrete random variables is
σ=√(∑[(x-µ)².f(x)] )
Thus, the standard deviation is σ= √0.6884
=0.8297
Hence, the standard deviation of the random variable x is 0.8297

ayes
he's!Once the cells in a biological machine stop working, it can never be started again. It goes into a cascade of decay, falling toward disorder and randomness. Except in the case of viruses. They can turn off and go dead. Then, if they come in contact with a living system, they switch on and multiply. The only thing that "lived" inside this monkey was the unknown agent, and it was dead, for the time being. It was not multiplying or doing anything, since the monkey's cells were dead. But if the agent touched living cells, Nancy's cells, it would come alive and begin to amplify itself. In theory, it could amplify itself around the world in the human species.
Summary of central idea: It is petrifying that even if viruses are dead, they have the potential to "come alive.”
Globe Manufacturing Company has just obtained a request for a special order of 12,000 units to be shipped at the end of the current year at a discount price of $7.00 each. The company has a production capacity of 90,000 units per year. At present, Globe is only selling 80,000 units per year through regular channels at a selling price of $11.00 each. Globe's per unit costs at an 80,000 unit level of production and sales are as follows:
Variable manufacturing expenses $4.60
Fixed manufacturing expenses $1.80
Variable selling and administrative expenses $1.00
Fixed selling and administrative expenses $0.45
Variable selling and administrative expense will drop to $0.30 per unit on the special order units. The special order has to be taken in its entirety. This means that by accepting the special order, Globe will be forced to not sell 2,000 units to its regular customers.
Required:
If Globe accepts this special order, by what amount will its net operating income increase or decrease?
Answer:
Globe Manufacturing Company
f Globe accepts this special order, its net operating income will decrease by:
= $19,300.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Special order units = 12,000
Special order price = $7.00 each
Annual Production Capacity = 90,000 units
Annual Sales Units = 80,000
Normal selling price = $11
Per unit costs at 80,000 units level:
Variable manufacturing expenses $4.60
Fixed manufacturing expenses $1.80
Variable selling and administrative expenses $1.00
Fixed selling and administrative expenses $0.45
Variable manufacturing expenses $4.60 * 12,000 = $55,200
Fixed manufacturing expenses $1.80 * 10,000 = $18,000
Variable selling and administrative expenses $0.30 * 12,000 = $3,600
Fixed selling and administrative expenses $0.45 * 10,000 = $4,500
Lost revenue from non-sale of 2,000 at $11 = $22,000
Total costs of special order = $103,300
Sales revenue from special order = $84,000 ($7 * 12,000)
The net operating income will decrease by $19,300 ($103,300 - $84,000)

Suppose that Sarita has a gross annual income of $43,000. Her annual deductions for taxes, 401(k) retirement plan contributions, and health insurance amount to $9,400. This leaves Sarita with an annual disposable income of $33,600. Dividing Sarita annual disposable income by 12, you can determine that Sarita has a monthly disposable income of $__________ .
Answer:
Monthly disposal income = $2,800
Explanation:
Disposal income is the amount left for spending after all statutory deductions and taxes have been subtracted from an employees' income.
Annual Disposal income = Annual gross Income - statutory deductions and taxes
Monthly disposal income = Annual disposal/12
= (43,000-9,400)/12= $2,800
Monthly disposal income = $2,800

Niendorf Corporation's 25-year maturity bonds have an 8.75% coupon rate with interest paid semiannually, and a par value of $1,000. if your required rate of return is 13% what is the intrinsic value of the bond
Answer: $687.10
Explanation:
The value of a bond is the present value of the bond's coupon payments plus the present value of the bond's par value at maturity.
First convert terms to semi-annual periods as the coupon rate is semi annual:
Coupon payment = (1,000 * 8.75%) / 2 = $43.75
Required return = 13% / 2 = 6.5%
Number of periods = 25 * 2 = 50 semi annual periods
The coupon payment is an annuity so the value of the bond is:
= Present value of annuity + Present value of par
= (43.75 * ( 1 - (1 + 6.5%) ⁻⁵⁰) / 6.5%) + 1,000 / ( 1 + 6.5%)⁵⁰
= $687.10
A company projects an increase in net income of $108000 each year for the next five years if it invests $900000 in new equipment. The equipment has a 5-year life and an estimated salvage value of $300000. What is the annual rate of return on this investment?
a. 20.5%
b. 31.0%
c. 30.0%
d. 30.8%
Answer:
18 %
Explanation:
Annual rate of return on this investment = annual profit / average investment x 100
where,
annual profit = $108000
average investment = (initial cost + salvage value) ÷ 2
= ($900000 + $300000) ÷ 2
= $600,000
therefore,
annual rate of return on this investment = $108000 / $600,000 x 100
= 18 %
If the beginning balance in Firestone Auto Repair's inventory account was a $4,000 debit, what is the new balance in the inventory account after considering the new purchases?
Answer:
$9,870
Explanation:
The computation of the new balance in the inventory account after considering the new purchases is given below;
New balance is
= Beginning balance + value of the purchase.
where,
Value of the purchase = purchase cost + freight cost- purchase discount
= $6,000 + $170 - $300
= $5,870
So,
New balance is
= $4,000 + $5,870
= $9,870

Cash dividends were $2. The company did not issue any bonds or repurchase any of its own common stock during the year. The net cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the year was: ___________
Answer:
$57
Explanation:
Repayment of bond = Beginning balance - Ending balance
Repayment of bond = $154 - $89
Repayment of bond = $65 (Outflow)
Increase in common stock = Beginning balance - Ending balance
Increase in common stock = $57 - $47
Increase in common stock = $10 (Inflow)
Dividend paid = $2 (Outflow)
Net cash used in financing activities = Repayment of bond + Dividend paid - Increase in common stock
Net cash used in financing activities = $65 + $2 - $10
Net cash used in financing activities = $57
So, the net cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the year was $57.
Due to a turnover, a company hires 400 employees each year, on average. Assume that an average stay of an employee in the company is 5 years. On average, how many employees does the company have?
Answer:
On average, the company has 2000 employees.
Explanation:
Since, due to a turnover, a company hires 400 employees each year, on average; assuming that an average stay of an employee in the company is 5 years, to determine, on average, how many employees does the company have, the following calculation must be performed:
Year 0 = 0
Year 1 = 400 (+400)
Year 2 = 800 (+400)
Year 3 = 1200 (+400)
Year 4 = 1600 (+400)
Year 5 = 2000 (+400)
Year 6 = 2000 (+400 -400)
Year 7 = 2000 (+400 - 400)
Therefore, on average, the company has 2000 employees.

There are linkages between the microeconomic decisions made by managers and the macroeconomic environment. There are numerous examples from the current recession of company layoffs at the micro level, directly influenced by the decline in economic activity at the macro level. For this assignment, research this linkage. How did the recession impact businesses/managers at the macro and micro levels? You may use one company as the basis of your research.
Answer:
One typical example of this linkage between the economy at the macroeconomic level, and business decisions at the macroeconomic and microeconomic level, is what happened with Lehman Brothers in 2008.
Explanation:
Lehman Brothers was one of the main investment banks in the United States. During the years prior to the financial crisis, Lehman Brothers decided to pursue a risky but profitable strategy of over leveraging -lending a lot more money than they had as deposits.
Once the financial crisis hit, a macroeconomic event, it affected the company at the macro and micro level. At the macro level because Lehman Brothers itself ceased to exist as it went bankrupt, and at the micro level, because it had to enter a process to pay off some debtors, and some of the employees who were laid off due to the dissolution of the firm.
Other things equal, the deadweight loss of a tax Group of answer choices decreases as the size of the tax increases. increases as the size of the tax increases, but the increase in the deadweight loss is less rapid than the increase in the size of the tax. increases as the size of the tax increases, and the increase in the deadweight loss is more rapid than the increase in the size of the tax. increases as the price elasticities of demand and/or supply increase, but the deadweight loss does not change as the size of the tax increases.
Answer:
increase as the size of the tax increase, and the increase in the deadweight loss is more rapid than the increase in the size of the tax.
Explanation:
Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.
The different types of tax include the following;
1. Income tax: a tax on the money made by workers in the state. This type of tax is paid by employees with respect to the amount of money they receive as their wages or salary.
2. Property tax: a tax based on the value of a person's home or business. It is mainly taxed on physical assets or properties such as land, building, cars, business, etc.
3. Sales tax: a tax that is a percent of the price of goods sold in retail stores. It is being paid by the consumers (buyers) of finished goods and services and then, transfered to the appropriate authorities by the seller.
Other things being equal (ceteris paribus), the deadweight loss (loss of economic efficiency due to a lack of balance in competing economical influences for goods or services) of a tax increase as the size of the tax increase, and the increase in the deadweight loss is more rapid than the increase in the size of the tax.
Which of the following is an indirect manufacturing cost in a manufacturing company?
a. Indirect Materials
b. Real estate taxes on the factory
c. Salary of production floor manager
d. All of the above would be considered indirect manufacturing costs
Answer:
d
Explanation:
Indirect costs are costs of production that cannot be directly linked to a unit, activity or product.
Indirect manufacturing costs are cost of production that cannot be directly linked to a good that is produced.
Examples of indirect manufacturing cost include :
Indirect Materialsutility machine maintenance Real estate taxes on the factoryDepreciation Salary of production floor managerThe controller of Sandhill Industries has collected the following monthly expense data for use in analyzing the cost behavior of maintenance costs. Month Total Maintenance Costs Total Machine Hours January $2,880 3,820 February 3,273 4,364 March 3,928 6,546 April 4,632 8,619 May 3,491 5,455 June 4,844 8,730 (a1) Determine the variable-cost components using the high-low method. (Round answer to 2 decimal places e.g. 2.25.)
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $0.4
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Month Total Maintenance Costs Total Machine Hours
January $2,880 3,820
February 3,273 4,364
March 3,928 6,546
April 4,632 8,619
May 3,491 5,455
June 4,844 8,730
To calculate the variable component using the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (4,844 - 2,880) / (8,730 - 3,820)
Variable cost per unit= $0.4
Suppose the government imposes a tax on three products with differing demand elasticities. Match the product to the group that will most likely bear the incidence of the tax.
a. the government
b. producers
c. consumers and producers
d. consumers
1. highly inelastic
2. somewhat elastic
3. highly elastic
Answer:
a. Government - highly Inelastic
b. producers - Somewhat elastic
c. consumers and producers - Highly elastic
d. consumers - Highly elastic
Explanation:
Inelastic demand is that which does not changes with the change in the price of any product.
Government oriented demand remains constant irrespective of pricing and hence it is highly inelastic while in case of producers and consumers, the demand may vary depending on the substitute availability in the market
Answer: producer - highly elastic
Consumers and producers - somewhat elastic
Consumers - highly inelastic
government- none
Explanation:
