The company's gross profit would be understated in 2012 by $ 20,000 and overstated in 2013 by $ 20,000. This $ 20,000 amount is equal to the the difference in the amount of the wrong inventory entry and the correct ending inventory. However the company will have regular profit in the third year. The wrong entry would have no effect in the third year.
The Cost of Goods Sold would be overstated both in 2012 by $ 20,000 and understated in 2013 by $ 20,000. The Cost of Goods Sold will show no effect of wrong entry in the third year.

Answer:
Please see answer below
Explanation:
The journal entry to record the issuance of 10,000 shares of no-par value preferred stock for cash at $120 per shares has a debit to cash and a credit to preferred stock for $1,200,000 ( 10,000 shares × issue price of $120 per share )
Exercise 16-18 Indigo Inc. presented the following data. Net income$2,410,000 Preferred stock: 52,000 shares outstanding, $100 par, 8% cumulative, not convertible5,200,000 Common stock: Shares outstanding 1/1729,600 Issued for cash, 5/1296,400 Acquired treasury stock for cash, 8/1152,400 2-for-1 stock split, 10/1 Compute earnings per share.
Answer:
EPS = $11.74 per share
Explanation:
earnings per share (EPS) = (net income - preferred dividends) / weighted average shares outstanding
net income = $2,410,000
preferred dividends = 52,000 x $100 x 8% = $416,000
weighted average shares outstanding:
beginning common stocks (29,600 x 257/274) x 2 = 55,527 + (55,527 x 91/365) = 69,370.72new stocks issued (96,400 x 142/274) x 2 = 99,918.25 + (99,918.25 x 91/365) = 124,819.38treasury stocks (-52,400 x 51/274) x 2 = -19,506.57 + (-19,506.57 x 91/365) = -24,369.85total = 169,820.25 ≈ 169,820 weighted stocksEPS = ($2,410,000 - $416,000) / 169,820 stocks = $11.74
Since the dates are a little confusing, I assumed 1/17 for beginning common stocks, 5/12 for issuance of new stocks, 8/11 for acquiring treasury stocks, and 10/1 for stock split. From January 1 to October 1, there are 274 days on a regular 365 day calendar year.
The following data were reported by a corporation: Authorized shares 20,000 Issued shares 15,000 Treasury shares 3,000 The number of outstanding shares is:
Answer:
12,000
Explanation:
The following data was reported for an organisation
Authorized shares is 20,000
Issued shares is 15,000
Treasury shares is 3,000
Therefore, the number of outstanding shares can be calculated as follows
Number of outstanding shares= Issued stock-Treasury stock
= 15,000-3,000
= 12,000
Hence the number of outstanding shares is 12,000
Brown Industries has a debt-equity ratio of 1.5. Its WACC is 9.6 percent, and its cost of debt is 5.7 percent. There is no corporate tax. a. What is the company's cost of equity capital
Answer:
Cost of equity capital is 0.122 or 12.2%
Explanation:
The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a company's capital structure. The capital structure may contain one, two or all of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC is calculated by taking the weighted average of the each components cost.
WACC = wD * rD * (1 - tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
w represents the weight of each componentr represents the cost of each componentD, P and E represent debt, preferred stock and common equity respectivelyTo calculate the cost of equity capital, we first need to find out the weight of each component in the capital structure.
debt to equity = 1.5
So, debt = 1
equity = 1.5
Total assets = 1 + 1.5 = 2.5
wD = 1/2.5 = 0.4
wE = 1.5/2.5 =0.6
Using the WACC formula,
0.096 = 0.4 * 0.057 + 0.6 * rE
0.096 = 0.0228 + 0.6 * rE
0.096 - 0.0228 = 0.6 * rE
0.0732 / 0.6 = rE
rE = 0.122 or 12.2%

(To record repair of van)
April 29,
DR Delivery Van $52
CR Cash $52
(To record installation of GPS system in Van)
Explanation:
The transmission being faulty in the Van is part of the depreciation of the van and so when it is fixed, it reduces the depreciation of the van. The amount needs to be debited to the Accumulated Depreciation Account to signal that it is a reduction.
Installing a new GPS in a Van is an additional benefit to the van that will last for a period of more than a year hence it should be capitalised and added to the cost of the Delivery Van.

Explanation:
You are thinking of building a new machine that will save you $ 4 comma 000$4,000 in the first year. The machine will then begin to wear out so that the savings decline at a rate of 1 %1% per year forever. What is the present value of the savings if the interest rate is 9 %9% per year?
Answer:
The present value of the savings=$37,064.22
Explanation:
The present value of the savings is the amount that it worths today, this would be done in two stages;
The first stage is to determined the present of the first cash savings as follows:
PV of the first payment = 4,000 × (1.09)^(-1)=3,669.72
Second step is to determine the present value of the declining perpetuity
PV of declining perpetuity. A perpetuity is the series of cash flow occurring for the foreseeable future of years.
A- 4,000, g-negative growth rate = 1%,
interest rate = 9%
PV in year 1 = 4,000× (1-0.09)/(0.09+0.01)
= 36,400
PV in year 0 = 36,400 × (1.09)^(-1) = 33,394.49
The present value of the savings = 33,394.49 + 3,669.72= 37,064.22
The present value of the savings=$37,064.22

Explanation:
Common Stocks are at no par value:
This means that ,
1.When Common Stocks are Issued, the value is the issue price there is no share premium reserve on it.
2. For consideration paid in Common Stocks, value of stocks would be the same as the cost at initial recognition. For example the Purchase of Land on April 1. Initial recognition is at Asking Price of $91,000. Hence common stocks are issued at $91,000.
Preference Stocks are at $100 par
This means that,
1.Any issue of Preference Stock made in excess of par value is accounted in the Preference Share Premium Reserve.

Darth Company sells three products. Sales and contribution margin ratios for the three products follow: Given these data, the contribution margin ratio for the company as a whole would be:
Answer: A. 25%
Explanation:
The Contribution margin for the whole company = [tex]\frac{Total Contribution Margin Amounts}{Total Sales}[/tex]
Total Contribution Margin = (0.45 * 25,000) + (0.4 * 40,000) + ( 0.15 * 100,000)
= 9,000+16,000+15,000
= $40,000
Total Sales = 20,000+40,000+100,000
= $160,000
Contribution Margin for the whole Company = [tex]\frac{40,000}{160,000}[/tex]
= 25%

A corporate bond pays 3% of its face value once per year. If this $4 comma 000 10-year bond sells now for $4 comma 450, what yield will be earned on this bond? Assume the bond will be redeemed at the end of 10 years for $4 comma 000.
Answer:
The answer is 1.76%
Explanation:
N(Number of periods) = 10 years
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = ?
PV(present value or market price) = $4,450
PMT( coupon payment) = $120 (7 percent x $4,000)
FV( Future value or par value) = $4,000.
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 10; PV = -4,450; PMT = 120; FV= 4,000;
CPT I/Y= 1.76
Therefore, the Yield-to-maturity of the bond is bond is 1.76%
Consider the following $1,000 par value zero-coupon bonds: Bond Years to Maturity Yield to Maturity A 1 6.00 % B 2 7.00 % C 3 7.99 % D 4 9.41 % E 5 10.70 % The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years from now should be _________.
Answer:
16.01%
Explanation:
The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years from now is determined using the below formula:
The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years=(1+YTM5)^5/(1+YTM4)^4-1
YTM5 is the yield to maturity in year 5 i.e 10.70%
YTM4 is the yield to maturity in year 4 i.e 9.41%
The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years=(1+10.70%)^5/(1+9.41%)^4-1
The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years=16.01%
The crowding-out effect refers to the possibility that:
a. a deficit, financed by borrowing in the capital markets, will increase the interest rate and reduce investment in the private sector.
b. an increase in the supply of money will induce a decline in real spending.
c. when used simultaneously, expansionary fiscal and monetary policies are counter-productive.
d. the speculative demand for money varies inversely with the interest rate.
Answer:
a. a deficit, financed by borrowing in the capital markets, will increase the interest rate and reduce investment in the private sector.
Explanation:
Crowding out effect is when government borrowing from the capital markets leads to an increase in interest rate. this makes it more expensive for private sector to borrow and this reduces investment by private sector
A pharmaceutical research firm prohibits the employees who leave the firm from soliciting business from former customers or clients for a period of two years. This best exemplifies the _____ clause.
Answer:
Non-piracy.
Explanation:
If a pharmaceutical research firm prohibits the employees who leave the firm from soliciting business from former customers or clients for a period of two years. This best exemplifies the non-piracy clause.
A non-piracy clause is a legal framework which provides protection for companies from an ex employee who has left. This clause states that ex employees are prohibited from soliciting business from former customers or clients either directly or indirectly for a period of two years.
For instance, if Joyce works for XYZ pharmaceutical company that uses a non-piracy clause and later dropped a resignation letter or was laid off for a disciplinary action, she's prohibited from taking contracts from XYZ' customers for a period of two (2) years.
The value of a listed call option on a stock is lower when: I. The exercise price is higher. II. The contract approaches maturity. III. The stock decreases in value. IV. A stock split occurs.
Answer: a. I, II, and III only
Explanation:
The exercise price refers to the amount that the person who buys the call option will get to buy the underlying stock at. If this price is high, the profit from buying the stock at maturity will be less so the value of the listed call option reduces.
As the contract approaches maturity, the value will decrease because it will be less volatile as it approaches maturity.
The purpose of buying a call option is so that a profit can be made if the underlying stock increases in value. If the stock decreases in value, the allure of the call option decreases so therefore will the value.
A call bond option is termed as the option that implies the bondholder the right to purchase the bonds at the prevailing price in the market. A buyer of a bond call option in the secondary market forecasts a drop in investment substantial rise in bond prices.
The correct option is a. I, II, and III only
Option a. I, II, and III only is correct because The contract value will decline as it reaches maturation because it will become less unpredictable.
The goal of purchasing a call option is to benefit if the price of the underlying stock rises. The attractiveness of the callable bond falls as the price of bitcoin declines, and the worth of the call option reduces as well.
The exercise price is the price where the individual who acquires a call option will be able to acquire the underlying shares. If this price is too high, the benefit from buying the stock at maturity will be too little, diminishing the value of the specified call option.

False Value Hardware began 2021 with a credit balance of $32,900 in the refund liability account. Sales and cash collections from customers during the year were $730,000 and $690,000, respectively. False Value estimates that 7% of all sales will be returned. During 2021, customers returned merchandise for credit of $18,000 to their accounts.
Answer:
Closing balance = $66,OOO
Explanation:
DATA
Opening balance in allowance for sales return = 32,900
Sales = 730,000
Cash Collection= 690,000
Estimated sales return = 7% of all sales = 51100
Merchandise return for credit = 18,000
We can calculate the closing balance in the allowance for sales return account by adding estimated returns and deducting merchandise return from opening balance.
Closing balance = Opening balance + Estimated sales return - Merchandise return for credit
Closing balance = $32,900 + $51,100 - $18,000
Closing balance = $66,OOO
Scenario: Home Monopolist) A monopolist faces a demand curve given by P = 60 2Q and has total costs given by TC = Q2. Its marginal revenue is MR = 60 4Q and its marginal cost is MC = 2Q. Compared with the no-trade equilibrium, consumer surplus ___________ when the monopolist engages in free trade.
Answer:
2Q
Explanation:
Economy equilibrium is where MC = MR.
Marginal cost equals marginal return when the supply and demand is linear. Consumer surplus is the additional amount that a consumer is willing to pay for the goods and services. Here MC = 2Q and MR = 60 + 4Q. Here consumer is paying 2Q additional in the equation of marginal return.
Alpha can produce either 18 oranges or 9 apples an hour, while Beta can produce either 16 oranges or 4 apples an hour. If the terms of trade are established as 1 apple for 4 oranges, then: Group of answer choices
Answer:
But if they both work together in a way that Alpha produces only apples Beta produces only oranges then they would benefit from trade.
Explanation:
Then alpha should produce only 9 apples an hour, while Beta can produce either 16 oranges or 4 apples an hour.
If Alpha produces oranges there will be a loss because he produces less oranges. But Beta 's choice will not affect the trade.
There are no incentives for Beta to specialize and trade with Alpha.
But if they both work together in a way that Alpha produces only apples Beta produces only oranges then they would benefit from trade.
A growing population encourages economic growth as it creates a larger workforce. Suppose a surge in immigration increases a country's total population and its overall economic output increases. As a result, the country's real GDP increases from $304,000 to $316,500. What is the percent change in real GDP
Answer:
4.11%
Explanation:
the percentage change in real GDP = [(new real GDP - old real GDP) / old real GDP] x 100 = [($316,500 - $304,000) / $304,000] x 100 = 4.11%
Generally a surge in immigration will result in both higher nominal and real GDP, but what should be more important is how real GDP per capita changes. If real GDP per capita increases, then the inflow was positive and made the economy grow for better. If real GDP per capita decreases, even if total real GDP increases, then the economy is not doing better.
Maria, the landlord, refuses to fix a small leak in the roof that was there prior to the current tenant. Juan, the current tenant, has just discovered the leak after a heavy rain. The consequence is that black mold has been forming in the attic for quite some time. Juan still has significant time remaining on his lease. Juan has notified Maria in writing of the mold and leak issue but has received no response. He is concerned about the premises becoming unsafe to live in. It has been 14 days since he emailed her his notification. What are all of Juan’s options if Maria declines to do the repairs? Please discuss all remedies Juan may seek. Please remember to reference the contract and text to support your analysis.
Answer:
Please see answers below
Explanation:
Joan may as well put a call through to Maria in addition to his previous mail. Several remedial options are available to Juan and each has its own merits and demerits. It is proper for the tenant to consider each options carefully and seek legal opinion where necessary. However, if Maria declines to do the repairs, Juan may seek the following remedies
• Repair and deduct remedy . In this type of remedy, a tenant may deduct money that is equivalent of a month's rent to cover the cost of the repair or defect. Rental unit 156 covers a condition whether faulty or substandard rented unit could affect the tenant's health and safety. Since the landlord has refused to do the repair, she is guilty of implied warranty of habitability which includes leak in the roof, gas leak, no running water etc. Also, the tenant may not have to file a lawsuit against the landlord since this type of remedy has legal aid. Other conditions attached in addition to the above are ; the repairs cannot cost more than a month's rent, the tenant cannot use the repair and deduct remedy more that twice in any 12 month period, tenant must have informed the landlord in writing and through calls of the faulty area that requires repair. His family or pets must not be the cause of the faulty area that needed to be repaired etc.
• The abandonment remedy . Here, the tenant could move out of the faulty unit or defective rental unit due to its substandard condition which could affect his health and safety. Where the tenant uses the abandonment remedy judiciously, he is not liable to pay any other rent once he has abandoned or moved out of the defective rental unit. The conditions attached are that; the defects must be serious and directly related to the tenant's health and safety, the tenant or his family must not be the cause of the faulty space that requires repair. Moreover, the tenant must have informed the landlord whether in writing or orally telephone calls of the defects that requires repair.
• The rent withholding remedy. Legally, a tenant could withhold house rent if the landlord fails to take care of serious defects that negates the implied warranty of habitability. Conditions attached to this type of remedy are; the defects to be repaired must have threatened the tenant's safety and wellbeing. Again, the faulty or defective unit must be such that it becomes uninhabitable for the tenant . The tenant, his family or pets must not be the cause of the defects that requires repairs. The tenant must have also notified the landlord either through phone calls on in writing, amongst others.
• The tenant could also file a lawsuit against the landlord to recover the cost expended to fixing the faulty repairs where the landlord was not willing to do so. Conditions that must be met before this option could stand in the court of law are; the rental unit has serious defect that is not safe for living. A housing inspector has inspected the house and found to be short of minimum requirements for habitable place etc. A tenant may seek this type of redress where the option for out of court settlement has failed with the landlord.

Equity method is when investments are being treated in associate companies and it is usually applied in cases whereby an investor entity holds about twenty to fifty percent of the associate company's voting stock. Due to this reason, it has a strong say in the associate company's management.
Under the equity method of accounting for investments, an investor recognizes its share of the earning in the period in which the earnings are reported by the investee in its financial statements.
You purchased 200 shares of ABC common stock on margin at $50 per share. Assume the initial margin is 50% and the maintenance margin is 30%. You will get a margin call if the stock drops below what price? (Assume the stock pays no dividends, and ignore interest on the margin loan.)
Answer:
Margin call will be obtained if the stock price drops below $35.71
Explanation:
Here in this question, we start by calculating the maintenance margin
Mathematically;
Maintenance margin = Equity/market value
From the question, maintenance margin= 30%
= 30/100 = 0.3
Let the unknown price be P.
Thus, the market value of the 200 shares at price P is 200p
Hence;
0.3 = (200 * p - purchased stock value * initial margin)/200p
0.3 * 200p = 200p - 200(0.5 * 50)/200p
0.3 * 200p = 200p - 5000
60p = 200p -5000
140p = 5000
p = 5000/140
p = $35.71
There is a zero coupon bond currently priced at $521.58. This bond has a par value of $1000 and matures in 9 years. What is the yield to maturity of this bond
Answer:
7.5%
Explanation:
The computation of yield to maturity is shown below:-
Let YTM be i%.
As we know that
Present Value = Face Value ÷ (1 + i)^n
$521.58 = $1,000 ÷ (1 + i)^9
(1 + i)^9 = 1.91725
1 + i = 1.075
i = 7.5%
Therefore for computing the yield to maturity we simply applied the above formula and for more clarification, we have attached the spreadsheet.

What is the approximate yield to maturity and the exact yield to maturity (use a calculator) for the $1,000 semi-annual bond? Assume this is issued in the United States: 10 years to maturity, 6 percent coupon rate, current price is $950.
Answer:
6.67% and 6.694%
Explanation:
The computation of the approximate yield to maturity and the exact yield to maturity is shown below:
For Approximate yield to maturity it is
= 2 × ((Face value - current price) ÷ (2 × time period) + face value × coupon rate ÷ 2) ÷ (Face value + current price) ÷ 2)
=2 × (($1,000 - $950) ÷ (2 × 10) + $1,000 × 6% ÷ 2) ÷ (($1,000 + $950) ÷ 2)
= 6.67%
Now
the Exact yield to maturity is
= RATE(NPER,PMT,-PV,FV)
= RATE (10 × 2, 6% × $1000 ÷ 2,-$950,$1,000) × 2
= 6.694%
Western Electric has 26,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $67 and a rate of return of 13.60 percent. The firm has 6,700 shares of 6.60 percent preferred stock outstanding at a price of $89.00 per share. The preferred stock has a par value of $100. The outstanding debt has a total face value of $368,000 and currently sells for 105 percent of face. The yield to maturity on the debt is 7.72 percent. What is the firm's weighted average cost of capital if the tax rate is 35 percent?
Answer:
Weighted average cost of capital= 11.03%
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is the average cost of all the various sources of long-term finance used by a business weighted according to the proportion which each source of finance bears to the the entire pool of fund.
To calculate the weighted average cost of capital, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Calculate cost of individual source of finance:
Cost of Equity= 13.6%
After-tax cost of debt:
= (1- T) × before-tax cost of debt
= 7.72%× (1-0.35)= 5.018 %
Cost of preferred stock costs
= Div/Price × 100 = (6.60%× 100)/89× 100 =7.42%
Step 2 : Market value of all the sources of funds
Equity = $67×26,000 =1,742,000
Preferred stock = 89.00 × 6,700 = $596,300
Debt- 105/100 × 368,000 = $386,400
Step 3; Work out weighted average cost of capital (WACC)
Source Cost Market value Cost × Market value a b c b× c
Equity 13.6% $1,742,000 236,912
Preferred stock 7.42% $596,300 = 44,245.46
Debt 5.018 % 386400 = 19,389.55
Total 2,724,700 300,547.01
WACC = (300,547.01/ 2,724,700) × 100 = 11.03%
Weighted average cost of capital= 11.03%
