Please discuss the following two scenarios: Both scenarios consist of a loan of $1000 on Jan.1 - to be paid back on Dec. 31. A is the lender and B is the debtor.
Scenario 1: On Nov. 7th, A calls B to see how he is doing. B says he is not doing well. A asks if B will be able to pay the $1000 on Dec. 31. B says probably not. A asks how much B will have and B says about $700. A tells B to pay him $700 on Dec. 31 and that he will not owe him the additional $300. A puts it in writing. On Dec. 31, B pays the agreed upon $700. Then on January 15th, A calls B and tells him that he wants the additional $300.
Scenario 2: Same situation, but on the Nov. 7th phone call, A tells B to pay him the $700 now and then he will not owe him the additional $300. It is put in writing. B pays $700 on Nov. 7th. Then on January 15th, A calls B and tells him that he wants to additional $300. In which scenario can A get the additional $300.
In which scenario can A get the additional $300? It could be in both scenarios, neither or one of them. What do you think?
Answer:
Neither
Explanation:
When A creates a deal of B paying only $700 now or on 31st December with a written commitment that he will not owe $300, it means A has decided to write off the $300. Had A not created any written document and just asked B to pay $700 now and then later on reminded and demanded $300 it would have been fine. A would still be legally right in maintaining that B still owes the balance $300.
However, giving a written commitment of waving off the $300 on payment of $700 now or by 31st Dec which B accepts and also adheres to by paying means that B has fulfilled the new agreement. As A has only floated the new agreement, he cannot go back from his own statements.
Brazil has a population of about 210 million, with about 150 million over the age of 15. Of these, an estimated 25 percent, or 37.5 million people, are functionally illiterate. The typical literate individual reads only about two nonacademic books per year, which is less than half the number read by the typical literate U.S. or European resident. Answer the following questions solely from the perspective of new growth theory:
Which of the following best explains the implications of Brazil's literacy and reading rates for its growth prospects in light of the key tenets of new growth theory.
A. Since economic growth is driven by international trade in technology and capital, if Brazil opens its borders, its literacy and reading rates will improve as the country experiences economic growth.
B. Since the development of human capital is an important determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its potential economic growth rate is lower.
C. Since it has been demonstrated that technological advancement and not human capital is the key determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates should not affect its potential economic growth rate.
D. Since technologically advanced physical capital is necessary for economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its economic growth rate will be lower because there are not enough skilled workers to operate sophisticated machinery.
Answer:
B. Since the development of human capital is an important determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its potential economic growth rate is lower.
Explanation:
According to the New Growth Theory, it is both human desire and capital the factors that drive economic growth the most.
A literate population that does not read a lot means a lower level of human capital for Brazil, which in turn means that Brazil has a lower potential for economic growth. In order to increase economic growth, the Brazilian government should promote readership among its population.

Assume that your father is now 50 years old, plans to retire in 10 years, and expects to live for 25 years after he retires - that is, until age 85. He wants his first retirement payment to have the same purchasing power at the time he retires as $55,000 has today. He wants all his subsequent retirement payments to be equal to his first retirement payment. (Do not let the retirement payments grow with inflation: Your father realizes that if inflation occurs the real value of his retirement income will decline year by year after he retires). His retirement income will begin the day he retires, 10 years from today, and he will then receive 24 additional annual payments. Inflation is expected to be 3% per year from today forward. He currently has $100,000 saved and expects to earn a return on his savings of 4% per year with annual compounding.
Required:
To the nearest dollar, how much must he save during each of the next 10 years (with equal deposits being made at the end of each year, beginning a year from today) to meet his retirement goal? (Note: Neither the amount he saves nor the amount he withdraws upon retirement is a growing annuity.) Do not round intermediate steps.
Answer:
$87,696
Explanation:
your father wants to get the same distribution during the whole 25 years that he is retired, but we must first determine the initial adjusted to inflation. The $55,000 that he currently earns will be equivalent to $55,000 x (1 + 3%)¹⁰ = $73,915.40 in 10 years.
Since your father wants to start collecting the distributions immediately after he retires, this is an annuity due. Using the present value of an annuity due formula, we can determine the money that he will need to have in 10 years.
PV = annual distribution x annuity factor
annual distribution = $73,915.40PV annuity due factor, 25 periods, 4% = 16.24696PV = $73,915.40 x 16.24696 = $1,200,900.55
That PV now becomes our future value that must be saved.
Since your father already has $100,000 in his account, that will turn into $100,000 x (1 + 4%)¹⁰ = $148,024.43
This means that he is $1,200,900.55 - $148,024.43 = $1,052,876.12 short.
Using the future value of an ordinary annuity formula, we can determine his annual contribution:
annual contribution = FV / annuity factor
FV = $1,052,876.12
FV annuity factor, 4%, 10 periods = 12.006
annual contribution = $1,052,876.12 / 12.006 = $87,695.83 ≈ $87,696

Daily demand for a certain product is normally distributed with a mean of 138 and a standard deviation of 13. The supplier is reliable and maintains a constant lead time of 7 days. The cost of placing an order is $17 and the cost of holding inventory is $0.40 per unit per year. There are no stock-out costs, and unfilled orders are filled as soon as the order arrives. Assume sales occur over 358 days of the year.
Your goal here is to find the order quantity and reorder point to satisfy a 73 percent probability of not stocking out during the lead time.
a. To manage inventory, the company is using
Continuous review system
Periodic review system
b. Find the order quantity. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Order quantity books
c. Find the reorder point. (Use Excel's NORMSINV() function to find the correct critical value for the given α-level. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round "z" value to 2 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole number.)
Reorder point
Answer:
A. Continuous review system
B. Order quantity = 2,049 Books
C. Reorder point=987
Explanation:
a. In order To manage inventory, the company is using what is called Continuous review system
b. Calculation to find the order quality
Using this formula
Order quantity = √((2DS)/H)
Let plug in the morning
Order quantity=√ ((2 x 49,404 x 17)/0.40)
Order quantity = 2,049 Books
(138*358=49,404)
C. Calculation for reorder point
First step is to find the σL
73 % S.L. - z = 0.613
Using this formula to find the σL
σL = (Lσ^2)
Let plug in the formula
σL=√(7(13)^2)
σL= 34.39
Second step is to find the Reorder point using this formula
R = d bar(L) + zσL
Let plug in the formula
Reorder point = (138)(7) + 0.613(34.39)
Reorder point = 966+21
Reorder point=987

Jim wants to start his own business and needs $10,000 for working capital. He applies for a business loan at FirstBank. The banker tells Jim that the Bank will make the loan if Jim's father will personally guarantee repayment of the loan. Jim assures the banker that his father will do this. The banker calls Jim's father to confirm that he will guarantee Jim's $10,000 loan. Jim's father says: "Sure thing, I'd do anything for that boy." The bank makes the loan to Jim. Jim's new business is not successful and Jim is unable to repay the loan. Jim has no money. Jim's father has buckets of money. The bank sues Jim's father to recover the unpaid amount of the loan plus interest plus attorneys' fees and costs of collecting the debt.
Which of the following is true?
A. Jim's father can make a strong argument that he is not liable to pay his son's debt because the Bank did not have him sign a written guaranty agreement.
B.The oral agreement to guaranty the loan is not enforceable because it is contrary to public policy.
C.Jim’s father is liable to pay his son’s debt because the Bank partially performed under the loan agreement.
D.If it can be proven in a court of law that Jim's father orally agreed to guarantee the loan, Jim's father will be held liable for the repayment of the loanbecause 'a deal is a deal'.
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
From the different options provided, in this scenario the one that is true is that Jim's father can make a strong argument that he is not liable to pay his son's debt because the Bank did not have him sign a written guaranty agreement. In order for the bank to properly hold Jim and his father to the agreement they needed to create a contract and have Jim's father sign and agree to the contract in person. Since the bank failed to do so, then Jim's father can fight the lawsuit. Agreement over the phone is not proper procedure and would not hold up in court due to the bank not being able to properly verify who the individual on the other side of the phone call truly was or if he was really Jim's Father.

We can calculate the Robin's AMT for 2019 by first deducting the AMT exemption for 2019 and then multiplying it by the rate of 26% FOR 2019.
DATA
AMT preferences 100,000
PositiveAMT adjustments 30,000
Total AMT = $100,000 + $30,000 = $130,000
Solution
Exemption for 2019 = $71,700.
Robin's AMT for 2019 = ($130,000 - $71,700) × 26%
Robin's AMT for 2019 = $15,158.

Answer:
a. $13,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what royalty revenue should be
First step is to find the estimated amount for the second half of the year
Royalties for the second half =
15%*$30,000
Royalties for the second half= $4,500
Now let Compute for the total royalty revenue
Total royalty revenue for 20X5=$8,500+$4,500
Total royalty revenue for 20X5=$13,000
Therefore the royalty revenue should be $13,000

A foreign direct investment (FDI) can be defined as an investment made by an individual or business entity (investor) into an investment market (industry) located in another country. The investor here, shares a different country of origin from the country where his investment is located.
When establishing a foreign direct investment, investors are required to consider some basic entry decisions such as free market, political stability, low inflation rates, pioneering costs etc.
In a foreign investment, pioneering cost arises because the business investment differs from that in the firm's domestic market and such it is necessary that, the firm dedicate a good deal of time, money (expenses) and efforts to learning and adapting to the market rules, policies and processes.
Hence, an example of a pioneering cost is the cost of promoting a new product, cost of enlightening and education of customers etc.

Brazil has a population of about 210 million, with about 150 million over the age of 15. Of these, an estimated 25 percent, or 37.5 million people, are functionally illiterate. The typical literate individual reads only about two nonacademic books per year, which is less than half the number read by the typical literate U.S. or European resident. Answer the following questions solely from the perspective of new growth theory:
Which of the following best explains the implications of Brazil's literacy and reading rates for its growth prospects in light of the key tenets of new growth theory.
A. Since economic growth is driven by international trade in technology and capital, if Brazil opens its borders, its literacy and reading rates will improve as the country experiences economic growth.
B. Since the development of human capital is an important determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its potential economic growth rate is lower.
C. Since it has been demonstrated that technological advancement and not human capital is the key determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates should not affect its potential economic growth rate.
D. Since technologically advanced physical capital is necessary for economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its economic growth rate will be lower because there are not enough skilled workers to operate sophisticated machinery.
Answer:
B)Since the development of human capital is an important determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its potential economic growth rate is lower.
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed about Brazil having a population of about 210 million, with about 150 million over the age of 15. And Of these, an estimated 25 percent, or 37.5 million people, are functionally illiterate, and also compare how the typical literate individual reads only about two nonacademic books per year, which is less than half the number read by the typical literate U.S. or European resident.
From the view of New growth theory,the option that explains the implications of Brazil's literacy and reading rates for its growth prospects is that Since the development of human capital is an important determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its potential economic growth rate is lower.
New growth theory, which was attributed to Paul Romer, explains about Economic growth in the long run in related to internal factors of with knowledge as well as human capital. In this scenario Brazil should arrive to make sure the literacy rate among people is increased as possible
Consider an economy that produces only chocolate bars. In year 1, the quantity produced is 3 bars and the price is $4. In year 2, the quantity produced is 4 bars and the price is $5. In year 3, the quantity produced is 5 bars and the price is $6. Using year 1 as the base year, compute nominal GDP, real GDP, and the GDP deflator for each year.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
The nominal GDP is the market value of goods within a country adjusted for price change.
Nominal GDP for year 1 = Total market value of goods at current price = 3 bars × $4 = $12
Nominal GDP for year 2 = Total market value of goods at current price = 4 bars × $5 = $20
Nominal GDP for year 3 = Total market value of goods at current price = 5 bars × $6 = $30
The real GDP is the market value of goods within a country at current price.
Real GDP for year 1 = Total market value of goods at base year price = 3 bars × $4 = $12
Real GDP for year 2 = Total market value of goods at base year price = 4 bars × $4 = $16
Real GDP for year 3 = Total market value of goods at base year price = 5 bars × $4 = $20
GDP deflator is the ratio of nominal GDP to real GDP multiplied by 100.
GDP deflator in year 1 = (Nominal GDP in year 1 / Real GDP in year 1) × 100 = ($12/$12) × 100 = 100
GDP deflator in year 2 = (Nominal GDP in year 2 / Real GDP in year 2) × 100 = ($20/$16) × 125 = 100
GDP deflator in year 3 = (Nominal GDP in year 3 / Real GDP in year 3) × 100 = ($30/$20) × 100 = 150

Razor Inc. manufactures industrial components. One of its products used as a subcomponent in auto manufacturing is Fluoro2211. The selling price and cost per unit data for 9,130 units of Fluoro2211 are as follows.
Per Unit Data
Selling Price $410
Direct Materials 150
Direct Labor 28
Variable Manufacturing Overhead 25
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead 43
Variable Selling 16
Fixed Selling and Administrative 23
Total Costs 285
Operating Margin $125
During the next year, sales of Fluoro2211 are expected to be 10,130 units. All costs will remain the same except for fixed manufacturing overhead, which will increase by 20%, and direct materials, which will increase by 10%. The selling price per unit for next year will be $420. Based on these data, Razor Inc.'s total contribution margin for next year will be: __________
Answer:
Total contribution margin= $1,884,180
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct Materials 150
Direct Labor 28
Variable Manufacturing Overhead 25
Variable Selling 16
Sales in units= 10,130
Selling price= $420
Direct material cost= 150*1.1= $165
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= selling price - total unitary variable cost
Unitary contribution margin= 420 - (28 + 25 + 16 + 165)
Unitary contribution margin= $186
Now, the total contribution margin:
Total contribution margin= 10,130*186
Total contribution margin= $1,884,180
