Answer:
Suppose that in year 2021, Bloomfield had equal share of percentage of ownership in Clor as they had in previous year i.e 2020, it means that in 2021, the share of percentage that will be held by Bloomfield in Clor will be 26.59%
Explanation:
From the above, we will assume that Bloomfield stake in Clor using equity method and also investment in 2020 was $150,650 and $165,300 in 2021.
Inorder to calculate the percentage , we can make it Y hence we will add amount in 2020 with Y% of (Net income - Dividend declared) inorder to arrive at the total amount in 2021.
Solution.
$150,650 + Y% (75,600 - $20,500) = $165,300
$150,650 + $55,100Y = $165,300
$55,100Y = $165,300 - $150,650
$55,100Y = $14,650
Y% = $14,650/$55,100
Y% = 0.26588
Y = 0.26588 × 100
Y = 26.59
4. (10 points). Prezas Company's balance sheet showed total current assets of $4,250, all of which were required in operations. Its current liabilities consisted of $975 of accounts payable, $600 of 6% short-term notes payable to the bank, and $250 of accrued wages and taxes. What was its net operating working capital
Answer: $3,025
Explanation:
The Net Working Capital is used to find out if the company is able to use its current assets to cater for it's Current Liabilities and as such is calculated by subtracting Current Assets from Current Liabilities.
= Current Assets - Current Liabilities
Current Liabilities = 975 + 250
= $1,225
The interest bearing funds are not included when Calculating Net Working Cap.
Net Working Capital = 4,250 - 1,225
= $3,025

You are thinking of building a new machine that will sve you 2,000 in the first year the machine will then begin to wear out so that the savings decline at a rate of 4% per year forever. What is the present value of the savings if the interest rate is 5% per year? (Hint: this is a growing perpetuity.)
Answer:
The present value of the savings is $22222.22
Explanation:
A perpetuity is an indefinite series of equal payments made after equal intervals of time and for an unlimited period. A growing perpetuity is a kind of perpetuity whose period payments are not equal and they grow(or decline) at a constant rate each period for an indefinite period of time.
The formula for the present value of a growing perpetuity is attached.
The present value of the savings can be calculated as follows,
Present value = 2000 / (0.05 - (-0.04)
Present value = 2000 / (0.05 + 0.04)
Present value = 2000 / 0.09
Present value = $22222.22

Customer-Level Planning Circle K operates a number of convenience stores worldwide. Assume that an analysis of operating costs, customer sales, and customer patronage reveals the following:Fixed costs per store ............................................$80,000.00/year
Variable cost ratio...............................................0.80
Average sale per customer visit....................................$15.00
Average customer visits per week..................................1.75
Customers as portion of city population .............................0.04
Determine the city population required for a single Circle K to earn an annual profit of $40,000
Answer:
11,000 people
Explanation:
fixed costs per store $80,000
variable cost ratio 0.80
average sale per customer $15
average customer sales per week 1.75
customers as portion of population 4%
each customer shops 1.75 x 52 = 91 times per year
contribution margin per visit = $15 - ($15 x 0.8) = $3
contribution margin per client per year = $3 x 91 = $273
in order to make $40,000 in profits, you need at least:
($80,000 + $40,000) / $273 = 439.56 ≈ 440 customers
to determine the city's total population = 440 / 0.04 = 11,000
Estes Park, Inc., has declared a dividend of $6.70 per share. Suppose capital gains are not taxed, but dividends are taxed at 30 percent. New IRS regulations require that taxes be withheld at the time the dividend is paid. The company's stock sells for $118 per share, and the stock is about to go ex-dividend. What do you think the ex-dividend price will be
Answer:
$113.31
Explanation:
Estees park has declared a dividend of $6.70 per share
The dividend is taxed at 30%
= 30/100
= 0.3
The company stock sells for $118 per share
The first step is to calculate the after tax dividend
After tax dividend= 6.70(1-0.3)
= 6.70×0.7
= $4.69
Therefore, the ex-dividend price can be calculated as follows
Ex-dividend price= $118-$4.69
= $113.31
Hence the ex-dividend price is $113.31

Fern Corporation manufacturers a single product that has a selling price of $25.00 per unit. Fixed expenses total $50,000 per year, and the company must sell 5,000 units to break even. If the company has a target profit of $15,500, sales in units must be:
Answer:
Sales unit to achieve target profit =6,550 units
Explanation:
Break-even point is the level of activity that achieves no profit or loss. At this level profit is zero because the the total revenue is equal to total cost.
The break-even point is calculated as
Break -even in units = total general fixed cost/(selling price - variable cost)
ley represent tah variable cost per unit with letter "y"
5,000 = 50,000 / (25 - y)
cross multiply
5000× (25 - y) = 50,000
125000 - 5000 y = 50,000
collect like terms
125,000 - 50,000 = 5000 y
75000 = 5,000y
divide both sides by 5,000
y = 75,000/5000 = 15
Variable cost per unit = 15
Sales units to achieve target profit = Fixed cost + target profit/(selling price - variable cost per unit)
Sales unit to achieve target profit
= (50,000 + 15,500)/(25-15)
= 6,550
Sales unit to achieve target profit =6,550 units
Which of the following provisions, if included in a mandatory arbitration agreement, would not likely render it unenforceable?
A. A provision that the employee pay the costs of the arbitrator’s services.
B. A provision that gives the employer the right to choose any arbitrator.
C. A provision that requires the employee to prove his case.
D. All of the above.
Answer:
C. a provision that requires the employee to prove his case.
Explanation:
Arbitration is a form of resolving dispute outside of the court system. Here, the parties involved agrees to have their dispute settled through a third party other than a judge. Mandatory arbitration is a provision that is included in a contract , which requires concerned parties to resolve their contract dispute before an arbitrator instead of the normal court system.
In a situation where one of the parties to a contractual agreement feels cheated or the other party has not performed his term of the agreement, such may seek redress through an arbitrator. For a mandatory arbitration to be enforceable, there must be a provision that the employee pay the cost of the arbitrator's service and also a provision that the employer has the right to choose any arbitrator.
Chris Spear invested $16,700 today in a fund that earns 10% compounded annually. To what amount will the investment grow in 2 years? To what amount would the investment grow in 2 years if the fund earns 10% annual interest compounded semiannually?
a. Investment at 10% annual interest?
b. Investment at 10% annual interest, compounded semiannually?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Chris Spear invested $16,700 today in a fund that earns 10% compounded annually.
To calculate the future value of the investment, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
a. Interest rate= 10% compounded annually.
FV= 16,700*(1.10^2)
FV= $20,207
b. Interest rate= 0.1/2= 0.05
n= 2*2= 4
FV= 16,700*(1.05^4)
FV= $20,298.95
Use the information for the question(s) below. Project A Project B Time 0 −10,000 −10,000 Time 1 5,000 4,000 Time 2 4,000 3,000 Time 3 3,000 10,000 If WiseGuy Inc. uses IRR rule to choose projects, which of the projects (Project A or Project B) will rank highest?
Answer:
PROJECT B
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.
IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator
For project A,
Cash flow in year 0 = -10,000
cash flow in year 1 = 5,000
cash flow i year 2 - 4,000
cash flow in year 3 = 3,000
IRR = 10.65%
For project B,
Cash flow in year 0 = -10,000
cash flow in year 1 = 4,000
cash flow i year 2 - 3,000
cash flow in year 3 = 10,000
IRR = 26.37%
Project B would be ranked higher because it has a higher IRR
To find the IRR using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button
Great Cruiseline offers nightly dinner cruises departing from several cities on the eastern coast of the United States including Charleston, Baltimore, and Alexandria. Dinner cruise tickets sell for $80 per passenger. Great Cruiseline's variable cost of providing the dinner is $40 per passenger, and the fixed cost of operating the vessels (depreciation, salaries, docking fees, and other expenses) is $240,000 per month. The company's relevant range extends to 13,000 monthly passengers. Use this information to compute the following:
A. What is the contribution margin per passenger?
B. What is the contribution margin ratio?
C. Use the unit contribution margin to project operating income if monthly sales total 10,000 passengers.
D. Use the contribution margin ratio to project operating income if monthly sales revenue totals $515,000.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $80
Unitary variable cost= $40
Fixed costs= $240,000
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin and the contribution margin ratio:
Contribution margin= 80 - 40= $40
Contribution margin ratio= contribution margin/selling price
Contribution margin ratio= 40/80= 0.5
Now, we can calculate the operating income for 10,000 units:
Total contribution margin= 40*10,000= 400,000
Fixed costs= (240,000)
Net operating income= 160,000
Finally, the operating income for $515,000:
Net operating income= (contribution margin ratio*sales) - fixed costs
Net operating income= 515,000*0.5 - 240,000
Net operating income= 17,500

B&B has a new baby powder ready to market. If the firm goes directly to the market with the product, there is only a 60 percent chance of success. However, the firm can conduct customer segment research, which will take a year and cost $1.14 million. By going through research, the company will be able to better target potential customers and will increase the probability of success to 75 percent. If successful, the baby powder will bring a present value profit (at time of initial selling) of $19.1 million. If unsuccessful, the present value payoff is only $6.1 million. The appropriate discount rate is 14 percent.
Required:
Calculate the NPV for the firm if it conducts customer segment research and if it goes to market immediately.
Answer:
NPV = $13.9m
NPV = $11.05m (if conducts customer segment research)
Explanation:
DATA
Successfull probability = 60%
Unsuccessful probability = 40%
Initial selling = $19.1m
Unsuccessful present value = $6.1 m
Research cost = $1.14m
Discount rate = 14%
Solution ( NPV If the firm goes to market immediately)
NPV = (Successful probability x initial selling) + (Unsuccessful probability x Unsuccessful present value)
NPV = (60% x $19.1m) + ( 40% x $6.1 m)
NPV = $11.46m + $2.44m
NPV = $13.9m
Solution (NPV if the firm conducts customer segment research)
NPV = ((Successful probability x initial selling) + (Unsuccessful probability x Unsuccessful present value)/1+discount rate ) - research cost
NPV = [tex]\frac{13.9m}{1+0.14} - 1.14[/tex]
NPV = $12.19m - $1.14m
NPV = $11.05m
Note: We can calculate NPV if the firm conducts customer segment research by dividing NPV calculated above by (1+discount rate) and research cost is deducted from the whole.
Conduct online research on the taxes your state levies and compare them with federal tax rates.
Answer:
In new York federal tax rate is 22% and state tax rate is 6.21%
Explanation:
In New York there are four tax brackets staring from 3.078% on taxable income of $12,000 per annum. Many states have income taxes but their rules may vary significantly. Federal taxes are progressive which mean higher rate of tax is applied on higher incomes. Some states may also have progressive income tax policies. There may also be a flat rate for everyone which means every individual has to pay same level of tax rate irrespective of their income.
Answer: in Illinois it’s 15% for Levies rather than 4.95% for federal tax rates.

Explanation:
For computing the monthly car payment we need to apply the PMT formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below
Provided that
Present value = $38,000
Future value or Face value = $0
NPER = 48 months
RATE = 1%
The formula is shown below:
= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula, the monthly car payment is $1,000.69
WinterDreams operates a Rocky Mountain ski resort. The company is planning its lift ticket pricing for the coming ski season. Investors would like to earn a 16 % return on the company's $ 115 million of assets. The company incurs primarily fixed costs to groom the runs and operate the lifts. WinterDreams projects fixed costs to be $ 35 comma 600 comma 000 for the ski season. The resort serves 800 comma 000 skiers and snowboarders each season. Variable costs are $ 8 per guest. Currently, the resort has such a favorable reputation among skiers and snowboarders that it has some control over the lift ticket prices.
Required:
a. Would Mountain Point emphasize target pricing or cost-plus pricing? Why?
b. If other resorts in the area charge $66 per day, what price should Mount Snow charge?
Answer:
a. Would Mountain Point emphasize target pricing or cost-plus pricing? Why?
They emphasize cost plus pricing because the investors are seeking a desired rate of return on their investment and they do it by adding the desired profit margin to their costs.b. If other resorts in the area charge $66 per day, what price should Mount Snow charge?
$75.50 in order for them to generate the required ROI. Since the resort has a very good reputation, it can charge a higher price than its competitors.Explanation:
company's assets = $115,000,000
expected return on investment = 16%
fixed costs = $35,600,000
number of customers = 800,000
variable costs = $8 per customer x 800,000 = $6,400,000
total costs = $42,000,000
total cost per client = $42,000,000 / 800,000 = $52.50
desired profit = $115,000,000 x 16% = $18,400,000
desired profit per client = $18,400,000 / 800,000 = $23
price per ticket = $75.50

Rita Gonzales won the $53 million lottery. She is to receive $2.2 million a year for the next 20 years plus an additional lump sum payment of $9 million after 20 years. The discount rate is 12 percent. What is the current value of her winnings
Answer:
PV= $17,365,776.86
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cf= 2,200,000
Number of years= 20
Discount rate= 12%
Additional lump sum= 9,000,000
First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual cash flow
FV= {2,200,000*[(1.12^20) - 1]} / 0.12 + 9,000,000
FV= $167,515,373.4
Now, the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 167,515,373.4/1.12^20
PV= $17,365,776.86
For a recent year, McDonald's Company-owned restaurants had the following sales and expenses (in millions):
Sales $28,600
Food and packaging $9,710
Payroll 7,200
Occupancy (rent, depreciation, etc.) 6,630
General, selling, and administrative expenses 4,200
$27,740
Income from operations $860
Assume that the variable costs consist of food and packaging, payroll, and 40% of the general, selling, and administrative expenses.
a. What is McDonald's contribution margin? Round to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place)
b. What is McDonald's contribution margin ratio? Round to one decimal place.
c. How much would income from operation increase if the same-store sales increased by $900 million for the coming year, with NO change in the contribution margin ratio or fixed costs? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place)
Answer:
a. What is McDonald's contribution margin?
contribution margin = total sales - total variable costs = $28,600 - [$9,710 + $7,200 + (0.4 x $4,200)] = $10,010
b. What is McDonald's contribution margin ratio?
contribution margin ratio = contribution margin / total sales = $10,010 / $28,600 = 0.35 ≈ 0.4
c. How much would income from operation increase if the same-store sales increased by $900 million for the coming year, with NO change in the contribution margin ratio or fixed costs?
increase in total contribution margin = $900 x 0.35 = $315
Income from operations will increase by $315 million

Flapjack Corporation had 7,600 actual direct labor hours at an actual rate of $12.41 per hour. Original production had been budgeted for 1,100 units, but only 950 units were actually produced. Labor standards were 7.0 hours per completed unit at a standard rate of $13.00 per hour. The direct labor time variance is
Answer:
-$12,350 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of direct labor variance is shown below:
Labor time variance = (Standard hours - Actual hours) × standard rate
= (950 × 7.0 - 7,600) × $13
= (6,650 - 7,600) × $13
= -950 × $13
= -$12,350 Unfavorable
Therefore for computing the direct labor variance we simply applied the above formula by considering the given information
"Which of the following statements are TRUE regarding the rights agent? I The rights agent usually handles the mechanics of a rights offering II The rights agent is usually the existing transfer agent of the issuer III The rights agent issues the additional shares upon presentation of the rights certificates with payment"
Answer:
I, II, and III
I The rights agent usually handles the mechanics of a rights offering
II The rights agent is usually the existing transfer agent of the issuer
III The rights agent issues the additional shares upon presentation of the rights certificates with payment
Explanation:
Aright is defined as an offering to existing shareholders to purchase more shares. Usually there is a proportion of original shares the shareholder can now purchase. For example 1 to 5 shares means the shareholder can buy one share for every 5 old shares owned.
A rights agent is a person or entity that is responsible for maintaining records on behalf of rights holders.

The following information is known about the brackets: (12 points) Annual demand 4,000 Holding cost per bracket per year $1.75 Order cost per order $25.00 Lead time 4 days Working days per year 250
a. Given the above information, what would be the economic order quantity (EOQ)?
b. Given the EOQ, what would be the average inventory? What would be the annual inventory holding cost?
c. Given the EOQ, how many orders would be made each year? What would be the annual order cost?
d. Given the EOQ, what is the total annual cost of managing the inventory?
e. What is the time between orders?
f. What is the reorder point (ROP)?
Answer:
a. 339 brackets
b. 169.5 and $296.63
c. 12 and $300
d. $596.63
e. 4 days
f. 40 brackets
Explanation:
Economic Order Quantity is the Order size that minimizes holding costs and ordering cost of inventory.
Economic Order Quantity = √ 2 × Annual Demand × Ordering Cost / (Holding Cost per unit)
= √(2 × 4,000 × $25.00) / $1.75
= 339 brackets
Average Inventory = Economic Order Quantity ÷ 2
= 339 ÷ 2
= 169.5
Annual inventory holding cost = Average Inventory × Holding Cost per unit per year
= 169.5 × $1.75
= $296.63
Orders to make each year = Total Annual Demand ÷ Economic Order Quantity
= 4,000 ÷ 339 brackets
= 11.7994 or 12
Annual order cost = Number of Orders × Cost per Order
= 12 × $25.00
= $300
Total Annual Cost = Annual inventory holding cost + Annual order cost
= $296.63 + $300
= $596.63
Reorder point (ROP) = Lead time × usage per day
= 4 × ( 2,500 / 250)
= 40 brackets

For this discussion, you are to pretend that you're on a team project that's running behind schedule. Let's say you and your project team are three months into an eight-month project and you realize that you're already 2.5 weeks behind schedule and 15% over budget. What would you do?
Answer:
Explanation:
The discussion or focus is on PROJECT MANAGEMENT.
You are on a team project that is running behind schedule. You and your project team are 3 months into an 8-month project.
There is a deficiency in both time management and money management.
For the project to be 3 months old, out of 8 months, then it's already in the execution stage.
Being behind schedule by 2.5 weeks implies that you have spent 2.5 weeks extra, achieving what you ought to achieve without or before the extra time. Discuss with your project team and make them more active in delivering their tasks. Time is crucial. Time is money also.
You're 15% over budget, hence you've spent 15% more than you should. Check the vendors of items and tools used in the project. You might have to change them if their products are too costly. Ensure proper accounting also. Do not disburse funds without the consultation and approval of team members who are finance experts.
In all, not more than 2 days or thereabout should be used in making these adjustments because time and money are equally pertinent!
