Answer:
A)
A 1,000 x $26.00 = $ 26,000
B 500 x $30.60 = $ 15,300
C 900 x $ 19.00 = $ 17,100
D 900 x $ 19.80 = $ 17,820
E 800 x $26.10 = $ 20,880
Total $ 97,100
B)
102,240
C)
Write-down at NRV 1,060 debit
Inventory 1,060 credit
Explanation:
We have to calculate the net realizable value(NRV) for each item and compare with the historic cost:
Units// Cost /// NRV
A 1,000 $ 26 $ 32(1 - 0.1) = 28.8
B 500 $ 31 $ 34(1-0.1) = 30.60
C 900 $ 19 $ 24(1-0.1) = 21.60
D 900 $ 23 $ 22(1-0.1) = 19.80
E 800 $ 30 $ 29(1-0.1) = 26.10
We will always pick the lowest to valuate the goods:
A 1,000 x $26.00 = $ 26,000
B 500 x $30.60 = $ 15,300
C 900 x $ 19.00 = $ 17,100
D 900 x $ 19.80 = $ 17,820
E 800 x $26.10 = $ 20,880
Total $ 97,100
Total Cost:
1,000 x 26
+ 500 x 31
+ 900 x 19
+ 900 x 23
+ 800 x 30
103,300
Total NRV
1,000 x 28.80
+ 500 x 30.60
+ 900 x 21.60
+ 900 x 19.80
+ 800 x 26.10
102,240
Comparing at the entire inventory level we get the following adjustment
103,300 - 102,240 = 1,060
A $20,000 loan with interest at 3.5% is being repaid by 35 level annual payments. The first payment is due one year after the loan is issued. Beginning with the seventeenth payment, the borrower is permitted to pay only one-third the normal annual payment. After the twelfth reduced payment, the loan is renegotiated. The revised level payment P will yield the lender 4% per year over the remaining seven years. Find P.
Answer:
To find EMI (P) we know that the yearly EMI for the loan of $20000 for 35 years at an interest of 3.5% is $992 per year.
Therefore upon calculating the loan after the seventeenth year we have $19252
The EMI calculated after the one-third permitted on the seventeenth payment is, therefore: $992*1/3= 992/3=$330
Therefore, the balance calculated after the twenty-seventh instalment = $6150
Therefore the yearly EMI (P) for the loan of $6150 at 4% for the remaining eight years is $900 per year.

g The aggregate supply curve shifts A. rightward if the money wage rate falls. B. leftward if the aggregate demand curve shifts leftward. C. rightward if potential GDP decreases. D. leftward if potential GDP increases. E. rightward if the money wage rate rises.
Answer:
The correct option to the question above is option A "rightward if the money wage rate falls."
Explanation:
The aggregate supply curve is a graphical illustration of how the total quantity of goods and services is available for a given price and time.
When the aggregate supply curve shifts to the right, it increases. While, when the aggregate supply curve shifts to the left, it decreases.
An increase in the aggregate supply curve shows a fall in price, which makes a high price level resulting in a greater supply of real GDP.
Money wages is the amount of money paid in wages. Money wages is indirectly proportional to real wages. The aggregate supply curve decreases if the money wage rate increases and the aggregate supply curve increases when the money wage rate falls.
Aggregate supply is affected by GDP. When A GDP decreases, it also decreases aggregate supply.
The original cost of the machine was $1,800,000. The machine has a class life of 15 years, but after 13 years, the firm has decided to sell the machine for $320,000. If Monster Potato has a marginal tax rate of 21%, what is the tax effect associated with the decision?
Answer: $16,800 tax payment.
Explanation:
Annual depreciation on machine = [tex]\frac{1,800,000}{15}[/tex]
= $120,000
Accumulated Depreciation in 13 years;
= 120,000*13
= $1,560,000
Book Value at 13 years
= 1,800,000 - 1,560,000
= $240,000
Company sold it at a higher price than its book value so there will be a capital gain of;
= 320,000 - 240,000
= $80,000
Tax is charged on the marginal gain;
= 80,000 * 21%
= $16,800

you have just deposited $11000 in to an account that promises to pay you an annual interest rate of 6.5 percent each year for the next 6 years. You will leave the money invested in the account and 10 years from today. you need to have $26300 in the account. What annual interest rate must you earn over the last 4 years to accomplish this goal
Answer:
Over the last 4 years to accomplish this goal the annual interest rate must be 13.14 %.
Explanation:
First find the Future value (FV) of $11,000 at the end of the 6th year as follows :
PV = -$11,000
r = 6.50%
p/yr = 1
n = 6
Pmt = $0
FV = ?
Using a financial calculator, the Future Value (FV) is $16,050.57
Therefore, the amount invested will amount to $16,050.57 in 6 year.
Next we then calculate the interest rate that will give us $26300 in the next four years (remainder of the 10 years)
PV = -$16,050.57
FV = $26,300
P/yr = 1
n = 4
Pmt = $0
r = ?
Using a financial calculator, the Interest rate (r) is 13.14 %
Conclusion :
Over the last 4 years to accomplish this goal the annual interest rate must be 13.14 %.
The city of New Orleans has 200 advertising companies, 199 of which employ designers of normal ability at a salary of $100,000 a year. The companies that employ normal designers each collect $500,000 in revenue a year, which is just enough to ensure that each earns exactly a normal profit. The 200th company, however, employs Janus Jacobs, an unusually talented designer. Because of Jacobs's talent, this company collects $1,000,000 in revenue a year.
Required:
a. How much will Jacobs earn?
b. What proportion of his annual salary will be economic rent?
c. Will the advertising company for which Jacobs works be able to earn an economic profit?
Answer:
a. Jacob should earn= $100,000 + ($1,000,000 - $500,000)
= $100,000 + $500,000
=$600,000
Hence, Jacob earns $600,000
b. The economic rent is the amount by which payment of Jacob(600,000) exceed the reservation price of the supplier(100,000)
Thus, the economic rent = 600,000 - 100,000 = $500,000
Proportion of Economic rent = Economy rent / Salary of jacob
= $500,000 / $600,000
= 5/6
Hence, the proportion of the economic rent of Jacob is salary is 5/6
c. The advertising company will not be able to make an economic profit because if they withhold some additional revenue made because of hiring Jacob, then he will switch to another advertising company at a higher salary and that company keep on making profit. The company should bid for Jacob until firm are indifferent on paying $600,000 or hiring someone else for $100,000 . Thus, the bidding of Jacob will continue until the salary of Jacob has bid up to a level where no company can make economic profits
Wanda Sotheby purchased 120 shares of Home Depot stock at $148 a share. One year later, she sold the stock for $140 a share. She paid her broker a commision of $34 when she purchased the stock and a commision of $39 when she sold it. During the 12 months she owned the stock, she received $427 in dividends. Calculate Wanda’s total return on this investment. (A loss should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Answer:
Return on investment = -0.71%
Explanation:
The return on investment is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.
Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.
Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.
Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:
Total Return on investment =
(Capital gain/ loss + dividend )/purchase price × 100
Capital loss = (184 -140) × 120 = - 480
Dividend = 427
Commission = 34 + 39 =-73
Net loss on investment = - 480 - 73 + 427= -126
Return on investment = -126 /(148× 120) = -0.71%
Return on investment = -0.71%
An online-only bank currently offers a 7-year CD (certificate of deposit) paying simple interest rate of 4% per quarter. If you want to get $4,240 from this CD 7 years later, how much do you have to purchase today?
Answer:
The answer is $1,413.94
Explanation:
Number of periods(N) = 28 periods (7 years x 4 quarters)
Interest rate(I/Y) = 4% per quarter. Therefore, interest rate per year is 16% per year(4% x 4 quarters)
Future value(FV) = $4,240
Present Value (PV) = ?
Let's use a financial calculator:
N = 28; I/Y = 4, FV = 4,240; CPT PV= -1,413.94
Therefore, the present value is $1,413.94

Answer:
Total worth of worth of investment= $1,622,099.14
Explanation:
The total amount available in his account would be determined as follows:
The value of the existing current amount in 40 years time
FV = PV × (1+r)^ n
FV- future value
PV- current amount in account
r- interest rate
n- number of years
FV = 35,000 × (1.07)^(40=
FV= 524,106.02
The value of the new annual deposit of 5,500 in 40 years time
This represents an annuity. An annuity is series of constant but equal amount occurring for a certain number of years .
FV= A×( (1+r) -1)/r
FV - future value
R - interests rate
n- number of years
A- annual deposit
FV = 5,500 × ((1+0.07)^40 -1)/0.07
FV= 1,097,993.12
Total worth of worth of investment
= 524,106.02 + 1,097,993.12 = 1,622,099.14
Total worth of worth of investment= $1,622,099.14
A company requisitioned $40,000 of materials during the year and incurred direct labor charges of $50,000. If the company began the year with a work-in-process inventory balance of $15,000 and applied overhead of $60,000, what is the ending balance of work-in-process inventory assuming no goods were moved to finished goods inventory for the year? g
Answer:
$165,000
Explanation:
The computation of the ending balance of work-in-process inventory is shown below:-
Ending balance of work-in-process inventory = Beginning + Direct material + Direct labor + Overhead applied
= $15,000 + $40,000 + $50,000 + $60,000
= $165,000
Therefore for computing the ending balance of work-in-process inventory we simply applied the above formula.
How can there ever exist negative real interest rates in the economy?
Answer:
Negative real interest rates occur in "high inflation environments".
Explanation:
Rates of interest can sometimes be unfavorable, as can completely accurate rates. Under high-inflation environments, declining real expectations appear especially when inflation continues rising rapidly, that is, quicker than prices.If prices are 5 percent, however, unemployment is 7 percent, so the actual rate becomes 2 percent negative.Requirement 2.

One of the oldest debates in economics is whether a currency should have a fixed or floating exchange rate. There is no single solution that fits all economies. The choice of an exchange rate system depends on many factors, including the openness to international trade, maturity of the financial system, inflation, labor market flexibility, and credibility of policymakers.
Consider two countries, Opland and Lovenia. Opland is a small, open economy with a large share of its national output created through trade. Lovenia has much higher inflation than its trading partners.
In the following table, indicate the exchange-rate system that would be more beneficial for each country.
Pegged (Fixed) Exchange Rates Flexible Exchange Rates
Opland
Lovenia
Answer:
Opland and Lovenia
Beneficial Exchange Rate:
Opland Flexible (Floating) Exchange Rates
Lovenia Pegged (Fixed) Exchange Rates
Explanation:
A flexible or floating exchange rate for Opland allows the market economy to determine the prevailing exchange rate between it and Lovenia, for instance. The market forces of demand and supply interacting in an open and mature financial system ensure that the appropriate exchange is established at each transaction point. In such a system, the credibility of policymakers is not under question, and the market enjoys labor flexibility with low inflation.
On the other hand, Lovenia, suffering from hyperinflation due to lack of investor confidence in its economy, will not be able to operate a floating exchange rate. It needs to rein on inflation by fixing the exchange rates for transactions with other nations in order to stop capital flight.
The burn down chart for a team showed a peculiar trend. It started dropping rapidly at the beginning of the Sprint and then seemed to plateau in the middle. A day before the Sprint, the line dipped rapidly and reached the horizontal axis. Whiat is the most likely reason for this trend?
Answer:
Explanation:
In the scenario being described, it is the most likely that the team encountered a major blocking issue in the middle of the Sprint which was resolved only toward the end. This can be deduced from the graph due to it plateauing in the middle, which usually happens when tasks are not finishing, which ultimately causes a blocking issue and since the chart went back to normal afterwards, they most likely resolved the blocking issue.

Lena plans to invest 7,200 dollars in 6 year(s) and 7,500 dollars in 5 year(s). She expects to earn 15.6 percent, compounded quarterly. How much money does Lena expect to have in 11 years
Answer:
The expected amount is $34154.83
Explanation:
Lena invested the amount = $7200
$7200 invested for time period = 6 years
Second amount invested = $7500
$7500 invested for the time period = 5 years.
The expected interest rate = 15.6 %
Total amount = A=P(1+r/400)^4n
A=future value
P=present value
r=rate of interest
n=time period.
Hence
A=7200(1+15.6/400)^(4*6) + 7500(1+15.6/400)^(4*5)
= 18034.5636 + 16120.2664

One of the basic principles in economics and finance is the time value of money. One dollar today is worth more than one dollar tomorrow. In this case, the more money you receive during the first years, the higher the value of the money. E.g. if you receive $1,000 today, you can invest it and earn interests and it will be worth more than $1,000 that you receive in a couple of years.

Its factory overhead cost is $5,630,000
Therefore, the conversion costs can be calculated as follows
Conversion costs= Direct labor+Factory overhead
= $7,630,000+$5,630,000
= $13,260,000
Hence the conversion costs total is $13,260,000
Norred Corporation has provided the following information: Cost per Unit Cost per Period Direct materials $ 7.05 Direct labor $ 3.70 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.60 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 121,500 Sales commissions $ 1.50 Variable administrative expense $ 0.45 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 44,550 If 8,000 units are produced, the total amount of indirect manufacturing cost incurred is closest to:
Answer:
$134,300
Explanation:
From the question above, we are required to total amount of indirect manufacturing costs that was incurred by Norred corporation with the information that was provided
The first step is to calculate the total variable manufacturing overhead costs
= Variable manufacturing overhead × Units produced
= $1.60 per unit × 8,000 units
= $12,800
Therefore, the total amount of indirect manufacturing costs can be calculated as follows
= Total variable manufacturing costs + Fixed manufacturing overhead
= $12,800 + $121,500
= $134,300
Hence the total amount of indirect manufacturing costs is closest to $134,300
Stock Y has a beta of .9 and an expected return of 11.2 percent. Stock Z has a beta of .5 and an expected return of 7.2 percent. What would the risk-free rate have to be for the two stocks to be correctly priced
Answer:
Required risk free rate for two stocks to be correctly priced would be 2.20%.
Explanation:
In order to determine this, the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula is used as follows:
Rs = Rf + (Beta * MR) .................................... (1)
Where;
For Stock Y:
Rs = Expected return on stock = 11.2%, or 0.112
Rf = Risk free return = ?
Beta = 0.9
MR = Market risk premium = ?
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
0.112 = Rf + (0.9 * MR) ................................. (2)
For Stock Z:
Rs = Expected return on stock = 7.2%, or 0.072
Rf = Risk free return = ?
Beta = 0.5
MR = Market risk premium = ?
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
0.072 = Rf + (0.5 * MR) ................................. (3)
If we deduct equation (3) from equation (2) and solve for MR, we have:
(0.112 - 0.072) = (Rf - Rf) + (0.9MR - 0.5MR)
0.04 = 0 + 0.4MR
MR = 0.04 / 0.4
MR = 0.10, or 10%
Substituting MR = 0.01 into equation (2) and solve for Rf, we have:
0.112 = Rf + (0.9 * 0.10)
0.112 = Rf + 0.09
Rf = 0.112 - 0.09
Rf = 0.022, or 2.20%
Therefore, required risk free rate for two stocks to be correctly priced would be 2.20%.

Future deductible amounts would be caused by Select one: a. Estimated Expenses and Prepaid Expenses b. Estimated Expenses, but not Prepaid Expenses c. Prepaid Expenses, but not Estimated Expenses d. Neither Estimated Expenses nor Prepaid Expenses
Answer:
The correct answer is:
Estimated Expenses, but not Prepaid Expenses (b.)
Explanation:
An estimated expense is a forecast of the amount of costs that will be incurred in future, to fulfil a transaction. An example might be an amount forecasted to cover a warranty cost for a purchased product under warranty in case a fault develops. Estimated expenses are not debited at the time of projection, but at a certain time in the future, hence they are called Future deductible amounts. On the other hand, Prepaid Expense is a type of expenditure that has not been recorded yet by a company as an expense, but the amount has been paid in advance for the good or service, even though the product has not been consumed at the time of payment.
10. Security X has expected return of 12% and standard deviation of 20%. Security Y has expected return of 15% and standard deviation of 27%. If the two securities have a correlation coefficient of 0.7, what is their covariance
Answer: 0.0378
Explanation:
The Covariance of securities refer to the relationship between two securities in terms of their movement together. A postie covariance means that securities usually move in the same direction while a negative means that they move in opposite directions. It can therefore be useful in portfolio diversification.
The formula is;
= Standard deviation of X * Standard deviation of Y * Correlation Coefficeint
= 20% * 27 * 0.7
= 0.0378
