Four fundamental factors affect the cost of money: (1) the return that borrowers expect to earn on their investments, (2) the preference of savers to spend their income in the current period rather than delay their consumption until some future period, (3) the risks associated with the investment, and (4) expected inflation.

Consider the following statements that address these factors, and indicate which you think are true.

Statement 1: On average and everything else held constant, it is generally assumed that savers and investors prefer immediate consumption to deferred, or postponed, spending.
Statement 2: Investments providing cash flows that are more likely to equal their expected value are said to exhibit more risk.
Statement 3: The onset of 5% inflation means that your receipt of a $100 interest payment allows you to purchase only $95 worth of goods and services.
Statement 4: The inflation premium used to calculate the nominal interest rate on a five-year security should be equal to the rate of inflation expected in year 5 of the investment.

The true statements are:
a. 1 and 4
b. 2 and 4
c. 1 and 3
d. 2 and 3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: c. 1 and 3

Explanation:

1. Even though Investors and Savers forego their immediate consumption for future consumption, it is generally assumed that both groups actually prefer immediate consumption to deferred consumption.

This is why they are offered a rate of return that compensates them enough to convince them to take deferred consumption over current consumption.

3. When inflation rises, it erodes the value of money such that people are able to buy less goods using the same amount of money as they were able to before.

If you therefore receive a payment of $100 and inflation is 5%, then 5% of the value of that $100 has been eroded which is $5. This means you're only able to buy $95 worth of goods and services.

Which of the following statements about annuities are true? (Select all that apply.) Check All That Apply The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement. The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement. The first cash flow of an ordinary annuity is made on the first day of the agreement.

Answers

Answer:

The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement. The last cash flow of an ordinary annuity is made on the last day covered by the agreement.

Explanation:

The difference between an Annuity due and an Ordinary annuity is the timing in the period it is paid. Annuity dues are paid in the beginning of the period which means that they accrue more interest because they have the rest of the year to build.

Ordinary annuities on the other hand see their cashflows made on the last day of the period which is why the last cash flow of an ordinary annuity is made on the last day covered by the agreement.

The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement. Thus, option A is appropriate.

The movement of money within and outside of a business is known as cash flow. Cash received represents inflows, while cash spent represents outflows. A financial statement that describes the sources and uses of a company's cash over time is called a cash flow statement.

An annuity's first cash flow is made on the initial day of the contract. An annuity with cash flows or payments that start at the start of the period is said to be due. An annuity in arrears is another name for a due annuity. The cash flows start in years one through five. And at time 0 (right now), the very first cash flow happens.

Thus, option A is correct.

Personnel Selection Standards Personnel selection is the method by which companies decide who will or will not be allowed to join the organization. The selection process should be set up so that the organization can identify the individuals who have the knowledge, skills, and abilities to best perform the job. This strategic approach to selection means measuring and confirming the effectiveness of the selection tools that are used. The tools are most effective when measured against these standards: reliability, validity, generalizability, utility, and legality. Review the section in your textbook on "Selection Process." The five standards against which to measure the selection tools used by an organization contribute to their effectiveness. Effective tools, in turn, help ensure an organization selects the best candidates for a particular job. This activity is important because you will review terms related to the selection process and think about to which of the standards they best apply The goal of this activity is to define ways to measure the success of a selection method. Read each scenario, then match it to the correct category it represents. 1. An intelligence test is an example of a measure that should yield similar results each time an individual takes the test.

Answers

Answer:

1. An intelligence test is an example of a measure that should yield similar results each time an individual takes the test.

RELIABILITY: means that the test is free from random errors, therefore, results should be consistent over time. If one employee takes the test today and scores 99%, and the next week takes it again and scores 40%, then the test is not reliable.

2. The HR manager of a manufacturing company has discovered a great personality test for choosing sales personnel, but it's rather expensive. He needs to show that using this test will benefit the company.

UTILITY: Is it worth applying the test? This standard applies to everything in life, e.g. you want to buy a new car. You can prepare your own crash text that specifically applies to your family plus all the rest of safety measures that you can imagine, but it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. The new car itself is probable worth around $40 - $50 thousand. Your life is on stake, but who actually pays that money to test a potential purchase (you might even have to spend millions testing other possible cars). So, you must rely on the tests performed and paid by the car companies themselves. A personality test might be great and 100% certain, but if it costs too much, then it is useless.

3. Your HR assistant points out that the employment application used at one of the company's branch offices asks for a high school graduation date.

LEGALITY: Is it legal for you to ask about someone's graduation date? The answer is NO.

4. A company performed a successful validity study on a new selection tool for their sales department and now wonders if it would be acceptable to use that tool for different jobs throughout their organization.

GENERALIZABILITY: This is about whether this tool or test is applicable in other contexts, businesses, industries, or in other business units or departments of the same company.

Venture capital (VC) firms are pools of private capital that typically invest in small, fast-growing companies that can't raise funds through other means. In exchange for this financing, VCs receive a share of a company's equity, and the founders of the firm typically stay on and continue to manage the company. A VC firm wants management to focus on improving , while the managers may also act to increase . VC investments have two typical components:_______.


(1) managers maintain some ownership in the company and often earn additional equity if the company performs well;


(2) VCs demand seats on the company's board. Management ownership serves to the alignment of the incentives of managers with the incentives of owners.

Answers

Answera dnd Explanation:

A. The incentive conflict in principal-agent relationship as it concerns venture capitalism is conflict between venture capitalists who are the principals and the managers of the business investment who are the agents. The conflict is that venture capitalists are put to increase value of their investment and make profit while salaried managers are only out to feel their pockets through their managerial role in the company as they do not have an interest in the company and are unaffected by the loss or failure of the company. This is known as the principal agent moral hazard issue in venture capitalism

B. By managers maintaining some ownership in the company, there us reduced conflict as managers now see a reason to make sure company succeeds since they have an interest

Venture capitalists aim to have a seat in the board to make sure managers do not take bad decisions since they are able to veto such decisions

Grady is a member of a large family and received the following payments this year. For each payment, determine whether the payment constitutes realized income and determine the amount of each payment Grady must include in his gross income. (Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable.)
A gift of $60,000 of Ford Motor Bonds. Grady received the bonds on October 31, and he received $1,800 of semiannual interest from the bonds on December 31.

Answers

Answer:

Since Grady received the $60,000 gift, he does not owe any taxes on that transaction. When a gift is made, the receiving party pays no taxes, but the giving party has to pay taxes if it exceeds the $15,000 annual threshold or the  $11.4 million lifetime exclusion.

But Grady must include the interests that he earned from the bonds as part of his gross income ($1,800). Interests are taxed as ordinary income.

Gitano Products operates a job-order costing system and applies overhead cost to jobs on the basis of direct materials used in production (not on the basis of raw materials purchased). Its predetermined overhead rate was based on a cost formula that estimated $800,000 of manufacturing overhead for an estimated allocation base of $500,000 direct material dollars to be used in production. The company has provided the following data for the just completed year:
Purchase of raw materials $510,000
Direct labor cost $90,000
Manufacturing overhead costs:
Indirect labor $170,000
Property taxes $48,000
Depreciation of equipment $260,000
Maintenance $95,000
Insurance $7,000
Rent, building $180,000
Required:
1) Compute the predetermined overhead rate for the year.
2) Compute the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year.
3) Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year. Assume all raw materials are used in production as direct materials.
4) Compute the unadjusted cost of goods sold for the year.
5) Identify the options available for disposing of underapplied or overapplied overhead?
6) Job 215 was started and completed during the year. What price would have been charged to the customer if the job required $8,500 in direct materials and $2,700 in direct labor cost and the company priced its jobs at 25% above the job's cost according to the accounting system?

Raw Materials $20,000 $80,000
Work in Process $150,000 $70,000
Finished Goods $260,000 $400,000

Answers

Answer:

Gitano Products

1. Predetermined overhead rate

= $1.60

2. Overapplied overhead for the year

= $40,000

3. Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year:

Direct raw materials                      $510,000

Direct labor cost                             $90,000

Manufacturing overhead costs:   $760,000

Cost of Goods Manufactured   $1,360,000

4. Unadjusted Cost of Good Sold for the year:

Direct raw materials                       $510,000

Direct labor cost                              $90,000

Manufacturing overhead applied $800,000

Cost of Goods Sold                     $1,400,000

5) The overapplied overhead can be deducted from the adjusted Cost of Goods Sold to arrive at a cost of goods sold that is equal to $1,360,000.  If there were inventories, the overapplied overhead can be allocated to the cost of goods sold, finished goods inventory, and work in process.

6) Job 215:

Direct materials       $8,500

Direct labor                2,700

Overhead                 13,600 ($1.60 * $8,500)

Total cost              $24,800

Markup  25%            6,200

Price to customer $31,000

7)                        Beginning            Ending

Raw Materials       $20,000       $80,000

Work in Process  $150,000       $70,000

Finished Goods $260,000     $400,000

If direct materials made up $24,000 of the $70,000 ending Work in Process inventory balance, then the balance is made up of $7,600 direct labor and $38,400 Overhead.  The overhead = $24,000 * $1.60 = $38,400.  The direct labor = $70,000 - ($24,000 + 38,400) = $7,600.

Explanation:

Estimated Manufacturing overhead = $800,000

Estimated direct materials = $500,000

Computation of Predetermined overhead rate

= $800,000/$500,000

= $1.60 per direct material

b) Data

Actual Expenses:

Purchase of raw materials    $510,000

Direct labor cost                     $90,000

Manufacturing overhead costs:

Indirect labor         $170,000

Property taxes        $48,000

Depreciation of

 equipment         $260,000

Maintenance         $95,000

Insurance                 $7,000

Rent, building      $180,000

Total overhead                    $760,000

Total manufacturing cost $1,360,000

c) Computation of Overapplied overhead:

Estimated overhead minus actual overhead

= $800,000 - $760,000

= $40,000

The Green Giant has a 4 percent profit margin and a 40 percent dividend payout ratio. The total asset turnover is 1.5 times and the equity multiplier is 1.4 times. What is the sustainable rate of growth?

Answers

Answer:

sustainable growth rate = 5.04%

Explanation:

the sustainable growth rate = retention rate x return on equity

retention rate = 1 - dividend payout ratio = 1 - 40% = 60%return on equity = profit margin x asset turnover x equity multiplier  = 4% x 1.5 x 1.4 = 0.084 = 8.4%

sustainable growth rate = 0.6 x 8.4% = 5.04%

the mathematical explanation on how I determined ROE:

equity multiplier = total assets / equity

1.4 equity = total assets

total assets turnover = net sales / total assets

1.5 = net sales / 1.4 equity

2.1 equity = net sales

profit margin = net profit / net sales

he Lubricant is an expensive oil newsletter to which many oil giants subscribe, including Ken Brown (see Problem 3-17 for details). In the last issue, the letter described how the demand for oil products would be extremely high. Apparently, the American consumer will continue to use oil products even if the price of these products doubles. Indeed, one of the articles in the Lubricant states that the chance of a favorable market for oil products was 70%, while the chance of an unfavorable market was only 30%. Ken would like to use these probabilities in determining the best decision. What decision model should be used

Answers

Answer: Expected Monetary Value decision model

Explanation:

The Expected Monetary Value (EMV) model is a statistical method used to calculate future payoffs that accounts for the risk and probability of different events happening.

It essentially takes the average of the scenarios that could happen based on their probabilities and their expected payoff and then adds them together to give a value that the investor can base their expectations upon.

For instance, in the above question, assuming that Ken Brown in a favorable market, Ken Brown can sell $500,000 worth of oil products but in an unfavorable one, they can only sell $100,000.

Based on the probabilities of the market conditions, EMV would show a value of;

= (500,000 * 70%) + (100,000 * 30%)

= $380,000

Olivia, Kyle, and Andy formed a partnership in which they share all things equally. Kyle contributed an asset on which there is a liability of $22,500, which was assumed by the partnership. Kyle's AB in the asset he contributed was $16,000 and the FMV of the asset on the date of contribution was $60,000. What is Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution

Answers

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

Calculation for Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution

Since the Liability of the amount of $22,500 was distributed among the three partners which makes each of one of them to have a liability of

the amount of $7,500 calculated as: ($22,500/3 partners ), that means that Kyle will have a debt relief of the amount of $15,000 calculated as (7,500 * 2 partners)

Hence,

Kyle's outside basis= Asset contributed - Debt relief amount

Kyle's outside basis=16,000 -15,000

Kyle's Outside basis= $1,000

Therefore Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution will be $1,000

A retired auto mechanic hopes to open a rustproofing shop. Customers would be local new-car dealers. Two locations are being considered, one in the center of the city and one on the outskirts. The central city location would involve fixed monthly costs of $6,950 and labor, materials, and transportation costs of $30 per car. The outside location would have fixed monthly costs of $4,500 and labor, materials, and transportation costs of $40 per car. Dealer price at either location will be $90 per car.
1. Which location will yield the greatest profit if monthly demand is (1) 200 cars, (2) 300 cars?
2. At what volume of output will the two sites yield the same monthly profit?

Answers

Answer:

1.

(1) Profit - Location B = $5500

(2) Profit - Location A = $11050

2.

x = 245 cars

Explanation:

1.

Profit is the difference between the revenue and the total cost. To determine which location will provide greatest profit, we need to solve the equation for profit for both the locations under different demand scenarios as given in the question.

Let Location A be the central city location.Let Location B be the outskirts locations

The profit equation for Location A = 90 * x  -  (6950 + 30 * x)

The profit equation for Location B = 90 * x  -  (4500 + 40 * x)

Where x is the monthly demand in number of cars.

Scenario (1) 200 Cars

Profit - Location A = 90 * 200  -  (6950 + 30 * 200)

Profit - Location A = $5050

Profit - Location B = 90 * 200  -  (4500 + 40 * 200)

Profit - Location B = $5500

Scenario (2) 300 Cars

Profit - Location A = 90 * 300  -  (6950 + 30 * 300)

Profit - Location A = $11050

Profit - Location B = 90 * 300  -  (4500 + 40 * 300)

Profit - Location B = $10500

2.

To calculate the output/ demand that will produce the same profit under both locations, we need to equate the two profit equations.

90 * x  -  (6950 + 30 * x)  =  90 * x  -  (4500 + 40 * x)

90x - 30x - 6950  =  90x - 40x - 4500

60x  - 6950  =  50x  -  4500

60x - 50x  =  -4500  +  6950

10x  =  2450

x  =  2450 / 10

x = 245 cars

Drake Appliance Company, an accrual basis taxpayer, sells home appliances and service contracts. Determine the effect of each of the following transactions on the company's 2020 gross income assuming that the company uses any available options to defer its taxes.

a. In December 2019. the company received a $1,200 advance payment from a customer for an appliance that Drake special ordered from the manufacturer. The appliance did not arrive from the manufacturer until January 2019, and Drake immediately delivered it to the customer. The sale was reported in 20IS for financial accounting purposes.
b. In October 2019. the company sold a 6-month service contract for $240. The company also sold a 36-month service contract for $1,260 in July 2019.

Answers

Answer:

The correct solution is:

(a) $1200

(b) $330

Explanation:

(a)

The advance payment was issued throughout 2019, but perhaps the items were not shipped in 2019. The products will be shipped in 2020 as well as revenues for financial accounting requirements will be published in 2020. Thus, $1200 would include total sales for 2020.  

So,  

The $1200 total is reflected in the taxable profits for 2020.

(b)

The service contract, for 6 months will be:

⇒  [tex]Gross \ income=240\times \frac{3}{6}[/tex]

                            [tex]=120[/tex] ($)

The service contract, for 36 months will be:

⇒  [tex]Gross \ income = 1260\times \frac{6}{36}[/tex]

                            [tex]=210[/tex] ($)

In 2020, the total gross income included will be:

[tex]=120+210[/tex]

[tex]=330[/tex] ($)

So,

The amount $330 seems to be included throughout 2020 gross income.

Hours of press time                                            18,000     38,000    56,000

Allocation bases:

Administration (number of employees),

Janitorial (space occupied)

Maintenance (hours of press time).

Allocation rate:

Administration = $77,000/1,500 = $51.33

Janitorial = $60,000/135,000 = $0.44

Maintenance = $39,000/56,000 = $0.696

The direct method of allocating costs is relatively straightforward.  It only involves the direct allocation of service departments' cost to the operating departments.  Service departments' costs are not allocated to any service department, but they are allocated directly to the operating activities.

Moon Company sells Product Q at $6 a unit. In 20XO fixed costs are expected to be $200,000 and variable costs are estimated at $4 a unit. How many units of Product Q must Moon sell to generate operating income of $40,000

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 120,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $6

Unitary variable cost= $4

Fixed costs= $200,000

Desired profit= $40,000

To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (200,000 + 40,000) / (6 - 4)

Break-even point in units= 120,000

3 25 6 3,100 840

Answers

Answer:

Accounting Breakeven = (Fixed Costs + Depreciation)/ ( Sales price - Variable cost)

Cash Breakeven = Fixed Costs / ( Sales price - Variable cost)

1.

Accounting Breakeven = (8,080,000 + 2,860,000) / (3,190 - 2,555) = 17,228.34

Cash Breakeven = 8,080,000/ (3,190 - 2,555) = 12,724.41

2. Accounting Breakeven = (48,000 + 290,000) / ( 116 - 69) = 7,191.49

Cash breakeven = 48,000/ (116 - 69) = 1,021.28

3. Accounting breakeven = (3,100 + 840) / (25 - 6) = 207.37

Cash breakeven = 3,100/(25 - 6) = 163.16

The Valley Wine Company produces two kinds of wine—Valley Nectar and Valley Red. The wines are produced from 64 tons of grapes the company has acquired this season. A 1,000-gallon batch of Nectar requires 4 tons of grapes, and a batch of Red requires 8 tons. However, production is lim- ited by the availability of only 50 cubic yards of storage space for aging and 120 hours of process- ing time. A batch of each type of wine requires 5 cubic yards of storage space. The processing time for a batch of Nectar is 15 hours, and the processing time for a batch of Red is 8 hours. Demand for each type of wine is limited to seven batches. The profit for a batch of Nectar is $9,000, and the profit for a batch of Red is $12,000. The company wants to determine the number of 1,000-gallon batches of Nectar ( x 1 ) and Red ( x 2 ) to produce in order to maximize profit.Formulate a linear programming model for this problem.Solve this model by using graphical analysis.
