Answer:
0.475% per month
Explanation:
value of property A 24 months ago = $500,000
current value of property A = $425,000
total decrease in value = $500,000 - $425,000 = $75,000 or 15%
monthly % decrease:
1.15 = (1 + r)²⁴
²⁴√1.15 = (1 + r)
1.0058 = 1 + r
r = 0.00584 = 0.58% decrease per month
value of property B 48 months ago = $575,000
current value of property A = $465,000
total decrease in value = $575,000 - $465,000 = $110,000 or 19.13%
monthly % decrease:
1.1913= (1 + r)⁴⁸
⁴⁸√1.1913 = (1 + r)
1.0037 = 1 + r
r = 0.0037 = 0.37% decrease per month
if both properties are weighted equally, then the market decrease per month = (0.58% x 1/2) + (0.37% x 1/2) = 0.475% per month
Mr. West wishes to purchase a condominium for $240,000 in cash upon his retirement 10 years from now. How much should he deposit at the end of each month into an annuity paying 2.7% interest compounded monthly in order to accumulate the required amount
Answer:
He should deposit $1,744.37 at the end of each month.
Explanation:
This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)
Where,
FV = Future value or the of condominium = $240,000
M = Monthly payment = ?
r = monthly interest rate = 2.7% / 12 = 0.027 / 12 = 0.00225
n = number of months = 10 years * 12 months = 120
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M, we have:
$240,000 = M * (((1 + 0.00225)^120 - 1) / 0.00225)
$240,000 = M * 137.585424499073
M = $240,000 / 137.585424499073
M = $1,744.37
Therefore, he should deposit $1,744.37 at the end of each month.
You need to turn $13,593 dollars into $18,359 dollars in 8 years. Assuming you make no extra deposits, what interest rate would you need from a bank in order to accomplish this
Answer: 3.83%
Explanation:
$13,593 has to accrue to $18,359.
13,593 * ( 1 + r)⁸ = 18,359
( 1 + r)⁸ = 18,359/ 13,593
(1 + r)⁸ = 1.35062
1 + r = ⁸√1.35062
1 + r = 1.0383
r = 1.0383 - 1
r = 3.83%

Using the average-cost method, the value of ending inventory is
Answer:
$640
Explanation:
Calculation for the value of ending inventory using average-cost method
Value of ending inventory=[(2,600÷30 units+80 units+20 units)*35]
Value of ending inventory=[($2600 ÷ 130) × 35]
Value of ending inventory=$20×35
Value of ending inventory=$640
Therefore Using the average-cost method, the value of ending inventory is $640

Oriole Company purchased a truck at the beginning of 2020 for $109400. The truck is estimated to have a salvage value of $4300 and a useful life of 120000 miles. It was driven 18000 miles in 2020 and 26000 miles in 2021. What is the depreciation expense for 2021
Answer:
Annual depreciation 2021= $22,771.67
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $109,400
Salvage value= $4,300
Useful life in miles= 120,000
It was driven 26,000 miles in 2021.
To calculate the depreciation expense, we need to use the units-of-activity method of depreciation:
Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in miles]*miles drive
2021:
Annual depreciation= [(109,400 - 4,300) / 120,000]*26,000
Annual depreciation= $22,771.67
A restaurant Soup4u uses 60 bags of tomatoes each month. The tomatoes are purchased from a supplier for a price of $80 per bag and an ordering cost of $20 per order. Soup4u's annual inventory holding cost percentage is 40%. Soup4u always uses economic order quantity for deciding how many tomato bags it should order. Which of the following will reduce their inventory to 1/3 of its current value without increasing their cost?
a) Reduction in ordering cost to 1/9 of it current value
b) Increasing holding cost to 9 times its current value
c) Reduction in ordering cost to 1/3 of it current value
d) Increasing holding cost to 3 times its current value
Answer:
a) Reduction in ordering cost to 1/9 of it current value
Explanation:
EOQ = √(2SD/H)
S = ordering cost = $20D = annual demand = 60 x 12 = 720 bagsH = annual holding cost = $80 x 40% = $32EOQ = √[(2 x $20 x 720) / $32] = 30
if you want to reduce inventory to 1/3 of its current value, then the order quantity should be 30 x 1/3 = 10 units per order
a) Reduction in ordering cost to 1/9 of it current value
EOQ = √[(2 x $20/9 x 720) / $32] = 10 ✓
inventory is decreased to 1/3 of current level
Company A decided to expand its office space and purchased 20 new desks and chairs from a supplier on July 1st. The desks and chairs were purchased on credit, and the company had 60 days to pay for them. Company A paid for the desks and chairs on August 15th. How would the transaction on August 15th impact the accounting equation of Company A
Answer:
The July 1st purchase increased assets (furniture) and liabilities (accounts payable).
The August 15th payment decreases assets (cash) and decreases liabilities (accounts payable is gone)
Explanation:
The important thing about a balance sheet or the accounting equation is that they must balance. If the total numbers on both sides are not the same, then you did something wrong. If assets increase, liabilities or equity must increase also, and vice versa.

Susan, a manager at Seattle Widgets, hires Bill as a file clerk, but does not inquire into Bills's criminal history. Bill has had several convictions for driving while intoxicated. On his lunch break, Bill gets drunk and assaults a cashier at a local Subway. The cashier discovers Bill's prior DUI convictions and sues Seattle Widgets for hiring Bill a convicted drunk driver. In this lawsuit against Bill, a court would most likely decide that:
Answer:
Seattle Widgets will be held liable because they are respondeat superior in this situation
Explanation:
The concept of respondeat superior states that an entity will be held liable for actions of their agents.
Usually when an agent acts in an official capacity or while performing duties for the employer the employer is held responsible for any wrongful act performed.
In the given instance Susan did not inquired into the criminal past of Bill. He now assaults a cashier while drunk.
If the cashier sues Seattle Widgets, the ruling will most likely hold Seattle Widgets liable because they are a respondeat superior and they were negligent in hiring Bill.

Crane Company incurs the following costs to produce 8500 units of a subcomponent: Direct materials $7140 Direct labor 9605 Variable overhead 10710 Fixed overhead 16200 An outside supplier has offered to sell Crane the subcomponent for $2.85 a unit. If Crane could avoid $3000 of fixed overhead by accepting the offer, net income would increase (decrease) by $230. $(740). $(5465). $6230.
Answer: Net income would increase by $6,230
Explanation:
Cost if offer is not accepted and Crane produces inhouse;
= 7,140 + 9,605 + 10,710 + 16,200
= $43,655
Cost if Crane accepts offer;
Crane could avoid $3,000 of fixed overhead = 16,200 - 3,000 = $13,200
Purchase price = 2.85 * 8,500 units = $24,225
Total cost = 24,225 + 13,200
= $37,425
Difference = 43,655 - 37,425
= $6,230
Income would increase by $6,230.

. Underwater Experimental is considering a project which requires the purchase of $498,000 of fixed assets. The net present value of the project is $22,500. Equity shares will be issued as the sole means of financing the project. What will the new book value per share be after the project is implemented given the following current information on the firm
Answer:
$13.25
Explanation:
The computation of the new book value per share is as follows
current market price per share is
= market value ÷ number of shares outstanding
= $936,000 ÷ 60,000
= 15.6
Now
number of shares to be issued is
= cost of the machine ÷current market price per share
= $498,000 ÷ $15.60
= 31923.07692
Now
The new book value per share is
= (current book value + amount raised from the issuance of shares ) ÷ ( current number of shares + number of shares issued for machinery purchase
= ($720,000 + $498,000 ) ÷ ( 60,000 + 31923.08 )
= $13.25

= $27,000
Hence the net income is $27,000
bear a coupon of 6 percent, payable semiannually. The bond matures in 20 years and has a $1,000 face value. Currently, the bond sells at $955. The yield to maturity (YTM) is
Answer:
6.4022%
Explanation:
The computation of the yield to maturity is as follows;
Here we applied the RATE formula
Given that
NPER = 20 × 2 = 40
PMT = $1,000 × 6% ÷ 2 = $30
PV = $955
FV = $1,000
The formula is shown below
= RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;TYPE)
The present value comes in negative
After applying the above formula, the yield to maturity is
= 3.2011% × 2
= 6.4022%
