Answer:
Stock Price is $54.50
Cash Dividend per share $1.50
Dividend Yield 2.75%
Dividend payout ratio 27.46%
Days Sales in Receivable 38 days
Debt Ratio 68.29%
Debt/equity ratio 1.57
Interest earned ratio 3.16 times
Explanation:
1. Market price = Price to earning ratio * Earning per share
Earnings per share = Net Income / Average number of shares outstanding
Earnings per share : 233 / 42.7 = 5.45
Market price per share : 10 * 5.45 = 54.50
2. Dividend per share : Dividend paid / number of shares outstanding
DPS : 64 / 42.7 = 1.50
3. Dividend Yield : Dividend per share / Stock Price share
Dividend Yield : 1.50 / 54.50
4. Dividend Payout ratio : Total Dividend paid / Net Income
Dividend Payout ratio : 64 / 233 = 27.46%
5. Day Receivale : (Average Receivable / Sales ) * 365
Days Receivables : 322/ 3064 * 365 = 38 days
6. Debt Ratio : Total Liabilities / Total Assets
Debt ratio : 2194 / 3215 = 68.29%
7. Debt/ equity ratio : Debt / Equity
Debt/Equity : 1603 / 1021 = 1.57
8. Interest Earned Ratio : Earning before Interest and Tax / Interest Expense
Interest Earned Ratio : 310 / 98 = 3.16 times
A company needs to locate three departments X, Y, and Z in the three areas I, II, and III of a new facility. They want to minimize interdepartmental transportation costs, which are expected to be $.50 per load meter moved. An analyst has prepared the following flow and distance matrices:
Distances meters Flows Loads per week
From / To I II III From / To X Y Z
I - 10 20 X - 0 80
II - - 10 Y 30 - 150
III - Z 100 130 -
If the company were to locate departments X, Y, and Z in areas 1, 2, and 3, respectively, what would be the total distance (in meters) loads would be moved each week?
A. 3,100
B. 3,600
C. 6,200
D. 7,200
E. 8,200
Answer: A. 3,100
the total distance (in meters) loads that would be moved each week is 3,100
Explanation:
First we arrange the workflow of the departments in descending order while the distance will be in ascending order.
TRIPS DISTANCE(metres)
1 -11 10
11 - 111 10
1 - 111 20
DEPARTMENTAL PAIR WORKFLOW
Y-Z 150
Z-Y 130
Z-X 100
X-Z 80
Y-X 30
Given that question provided to allocate departments X, Y, and Z in areas 1, 2, and 3 respectively.
So, having that in mind, allocate the distance for each suitable departmental pair;
DEPARTMENTAL PAIR WORKFLOW DISTANCE TOTAL DISTANCE
(meter loads)
Y-Z 150 10 1500
Z-Y 130 -
Z-X 100 10 1000
X-Z 80 -
Y-X 30 20 600
3100
Therefore the total distance (in meters) loads that would be moved each week is 3,100

g The Federal Reserve can lower short-run output by Group of answer choices lowering the real interest rate. increasing the money supply. decreasing the money supply. lowering the nominal interest rate. None of these answers is correct
Answer: Decreasing the money supply
Explanation:
When the Fed reduces money supply, it will remove the amount of excess money that people have to spend in the economy. This will lead to prices reducing because people no longer have a lot of money to spend on products therefore they will demand less goods. This will lead to the Aggregate demand curve shifting to the left. The new intersection with the Aggregate Supply curve will be at a point where prices will be lower and less quantity will be demanded which will signify a drop in the short-run output of the economy.

Ecker Company reports $1,925,000 of net income for 2017 and declares $269,500 of cash dividends on its preferred stock for 2017. At the end of 2017, the company had 300,000 weighted-average shares of common stock.
1. What amount of net income is available to common stockholders for 2017?
2. What is the company's basic EPS for 2017?
Answer:
(A) $1,655,500
(B) $5.52 per share
Explanation:
Ecker company announced a net income of $1,925,000
They also declare a cash dividend of $269,500
The company has 300,000 weighted average shares of common stock
(A) The amount of net income available to common stockhloders for 2017 can be calculated as follows
Net income available to common stockhloders= Net income- Preferred Cash dividend
= $1,925,000-$269,500
= $1,655,500
(B) The common basic EPS for 2017 can be calculated as follows
Common basic EPS= Net income available to stockholders/weighted average outstanding shares
= $1,655,500/300,000
= $5.52 per share
Badger Company had $1,060,000 of sales in each of three consecutive years 2012–2014, and it purchased merchandise costing $580,000 in each of those years. It also maintained a $360,000 physical inventory from the beginning to the end of that three-year period. In accounting for inventory, it made an error at the end of year 2012 that caused its year-end 2012 inventory to appear on its statements as $340,000 rather than the correct $360,000.
Prepare comparative income statements to show the effect of this error on the company's cost of goods sold and gross profit for each of the years 2012−2014.
Answer:
COGS more in 2012 less in 2013
Gross Profit Less in 2012 more in 2013
Explanation:
Badger Company
Comparative Income Statements
2012 2013 2014
Sales $1,060,000 $1,060,000 $1,060,000
Beginning Inventory $360,000 $340,000 $360,000
Add purchases $580,000 $580,000 $580,000
Less Ending $340,000 $360,000 $360,000
Cost Of Goods Sold $600,000 $ 560,000 $580,000
Gross Profit $ 460,000 $ 500,000 $480,000
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.

Refer to the financial statements of Burnaby Mountain Trading Company. The firm's asset turnover ratio for 2017 is _________. (Please keep in mind that when a ratio involves both income statement and balance sheet numbers, the balance sheet numbers for the beginning and end of the year must be averaged.)
Answer:
1.69
Explanation:
asset turnover ratio = net sales / average assets
I looked up the missing information and found the following:
total assets year 1 = $4,000,000
total assets year 2 = $4,300,000
net sales year 2 = $7,000,000
average assets = ($4,000,000 + $4,300,000) / 2 = $4,150,000
asset turnover ratio = $7,000,000 / $4,150,000 = 1.6867 = 1.69
The higher the asset turnover ratio, the more efficient a company is. Therefore, a higher asset turnover ratio is always better although there is no fixed parameter.
Tri-coat Paints has a current market value of $50 per share with earnings of $5.97. What is the present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) if the required return is 12%?
Answer: $0.25
Explanation:
Fron the question, we are informed that Tri-coat Paints has a current market value of $50 per share with earnings of $5.97. We are further told that the required return is 12%.
The present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) will be:
= $50 - ($5.97/12%)
= $50 - ($5.97/0.12)
= $50 - $49.75
= $0.25
Therefore, the present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) if the required return is 12% is $0.25.
Classify each statement about types of market structure as either true or false. Monopolies produce differentiated products.
Answer: False
Explanation:
Monopolies do not produce differentiated products, they produce unique products. This is because they are the only supplier of the goods in question and as such do not need to differentiate their goods to have a sales advantage.
Bonita Industries applies overhead to production at a predetermined rate of 80% based on direct labor cost. Job No. 130, the only job still in process at the end of August, has been charged with manufacturing overhead of $5100. What was the amount of direct materials charged to Job 130 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is 45000?
Answer:
Direct Materials $ 33525
Explanation:
Bonita Industries
Job No. 130,
Manufacturing overhead $5100.
Direct Labor = $ 6375
5100 80
x 100
Using cross product direct labor = 5100 *100/80= 6375.
We have
Work in Process inventory $ 45000
Less
Manufacturing overhead $5100.
Direct Labor $ 6375
Direct Materials $ 33525
The Work in Process is debited with Direct Materials, Direct Labor and Manufacturing Overheads.
As we know the Direct Labor and Manufacturing Overheads we can find out the Direct Materials by subtracting the Direct Labor and Manufacturing Overheads from the Work In Process Inventory balance.

Variable Overhead Spending and Efficiency Variances, Columnar and Formula Approaches Aretha Company provided the following information: Standard variable overhead rate (SVOR) per direct labor hour $4.70 Actual variable overhead costs $335,750 Actual direct labor hours worked (AH) 69,200 Actual production in units 14,000 Standard hours (SH) allowed for actual units produced 70,000 Required: 1. Using the columnar approach, calculate the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances. Enter amounts as positive numbers and select Favorable (F) or Unfavorable (U).
Answer:
Variable overhead spending variance $10,380 U
Variable efficiency variances $ 3,760.00 F
Total variable overhead variance $ 6,620.00 U
Explanation:
1. Calculation for the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances
AH * AH
69,200*4.85=335,620.00
AH* SR
69,200 * 4.7=325,240.00
SH * SR
70,000*4.7= 329,000.00
Hence, the variable overhead spending will be:
AH * AH- AH* SR
=335,620.00-325,240.00= $10,380 U
The efficiency variances will be:
AH* SR- SH * SR =325,240.00- $329,000.00 =$ 3,760.00 F
2.Calculation for the variable overhead spending variance.
Using this formula
Variable overhead efficiency variance = SR × (AH – SH)
Let plug in the formula
SR = Standard variable manufacturing overhead rate = $4.70
AH = Actual hours worked during the period = 69,200
SH = Standard hours allowed for actual output or production = 70,000
Variable overhead efficiency variance = SR × (AH – SH) = 4.70 (69,200 -70000)
= 4.70* 800 =3,760.00 F
3.
Using this formula
Variable Overhead Spending variance = (Actual Rate * Actual Hour - Standard Rate * Actual Hour )
= AH (AR - SR)
Let plug in the formula
AR = 33,5750/69200
= $ 4.8
AH = Actual hours worked during the period = 69,200
SR = Standard variable manufacturing overhead rate = $4.70
Variable overhead spending variance = 69200 ( 4.85 - 4.70)
$ 10,380.00 U
4. Calculation for total variable overhead variance
Using this formula
Total Variable Overhead variance = (Actual Hour * Actual Rate - Standard Hour * Standard Rate)
Let plug in the formula
AH = Actual hours worked during the period = 69,200
SH = Standard hours allowed for actual output or production = 70,000
AR = 335750/69200 = $ 4.85
SR = Standard variable manufacturing overhead rate = $4.70
Total Variable Overhead variance = (69200*4.85) - (70000*4.7)
=$ 6,620.00 U

For the first time in two years, Big G (the cereal division of General Mills) raised cereal prices by 4 percent. If, as a result of this price increase, the volume of all cereal sold by Big G changed by -5 percent, what can you infer about the own price elasticity of demand for Big G cereal
Answer:
the coefficient of elasticity is 1.25. therefore demand is elastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
5% / 4% = 1.25
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded

Lane Inc. just reported net income of $2,800,000, and its current stock price is $33 per share. Lane is forecasting $4,000,000 in net income next year, but it also expects it will have to issue 500,000 new shares of stock (raising its shares outstanding from 1,500,000 to 2,000,000). If Lane's forecast turns out to be right, and its price/earnings (P/E) ratio does not change, what does Lane expect its stock price to be one year from now?
Answer:
Price per share Year 1= $35.36
Explanation:
The P/E ratio or the price earnings ratio is an indicator that calculates the dollar amount that an investor is willing to invest in a company for each 1 dollar of that company's earnings. It is calculated as follows,
P/E = Price per share / Earnings per share
The first thing we do is to determine the earnings per share today.
Earnings per share = Net Income / No. of shares outstanding
Earnings per share = 2800000 / 1500000
Earnings per share = $1.867
We need to determine the P/E ratio today which is expected to remain the same for next year also.
P/E ratio = 33 / 1.867
P/E Ratio = 17.675 rounded off to 17.68
The earnings next year will be,
Earnings per share year 1 = 4000000 / 2000000
Earnings per share Year 1 = $2
Taking the constant P/E and year 1's earnings per share, we calculate the price in year 1 to be,
17.68 = Price per share / 2
17.68 * 2 = Price per share
Price per share Year 1= $35.36
Suppose that Second Republic Bank currently has $150,000 in demand deposits and $97,500 in outstanding loans. The Federal Reserve has set the reserve requirement at 10%.
Reserves=__________
Required Reserves=___________
Excess Reserves=__________
Answer:
Reserves= $52,500
Required reserves= $15,000
Excess reserves= $37,500
Explanation:
The Second republic bank has $150,000 in demand deposits
They also have $97,500 in outstanding loans
The reserves can be calculated as follows
Reserves= deposits-loans
= $150,000-$97,500
= $52,500
The required reserves can be calculated as follows
Required reserves= deposits × reserve ratio
= $150,000×10/100
= $150,000×0.1
= $15,000
The excess reserves can be calculated as follows
Excess reserves= reserves-required reserves
= $52,500-$15,000
= $37,500
Hence the reserves, required reserves and excess reserves are $52,500, $15,000 and $37,500 respectively
Indus Corporation pays $100,000 for the trademark rights to a line of soda equipment. After several years, sales for this line of soda equipment are disappointing, and the company estimates the total future cash flows from sales will be only $110,000. The estimated fair value of the trademark is now $60,000. What is the amount of the impairment loss to be recorded
Answer:
impairment loss = $40,000
Explanation:
In accounting, impairment loss refers to the decrease of an asset's carrying value. In order to calculate the impairment loss, you need to subtract the current market value of the asset from its original carrying value.
impairment loss = carrying value - current market value = $100,000 - $60,000 = $40,000

Explanation:
A bakery works out a demand function for its chocolate chip cookies and finds it to be q = D(x)= 760-13x, where q is the quantity of cookies sold when the price per cookie, in cents, is x.
Required:
a. Find the elasticity.
b. At what price is the elasticity of demand equal to 1?
c. At what prices is the elasticity of demand elastic?
d. At what prices is the elasticity of demand inelastic?
Answer:
Please refer to the below for explanation.
Explanation:
From the above, the demand function is given as ;
D(x)=760-13x
a) Find the elasticity
It means finding the derivative of the function
D'(X)=-13, hence elasticity is expressed as
xD'(x) / D'(x)
= x(-13) / 760 - 13x
= 13x / 760 - 13x
The elasticity expression is thus ; E(x)= 13x / 760 - 13x
b) At what price is the elasticity demand equal to 1.
The above means that E(X) = 1
Putting 1 for E(X) in the elasticity equation,
E(x) = 13x / 760 - 13x
1 = 13x / 760 - 13x
When you cross multiply, you'll have
760 - 13x = 13x
Collecting like terms, you'll have
760 = 13x + 13x
760 = 26x
Dividing both sides by 26, you'll have
x = 760 /26
x = 29.23
It means that the elasticity at the price of demand = 1 is 29.23
c) At what price is the elasticity of demand elastic.
The above means that E(X) > 1
Thus;
13x / 760 - 13x > 1
When you cross multiply, you'll have
13x > 760 - 13x
Collecting like terms, you'll have
13x + 13x > 760
26x > 760
Dividing both sides by 26, you'll have
x > 760/26
x > 29.23
It means that the elasticity of demand is elastic at x > 29.23
d) At what price is the elasticity of demand inelastic
The above means that E(X) < 1
Hence;
13x / 760 - 13x < 1
When you cross multiply, you'll have
13x < 760 - 13x
Collecting like terms, you'll have
13x + 13x < 76
26x < 760
Dividing both sides by 26, you'll have
x < 760/26
x < 29.23
It means that the elasticity of demand is inelastic at x < 29.23
Skysong, Inc. reports the following for the month of June. Units Unit Cost Total Cost June 1 Inventory 250 $5 $ 1,250 12 Purchase 500 9 4,500 23 Purchase 375 11 4,125 30 Inventory 125 Calculate Weighted Average Unit Cost
Answer:
Weighted average unit cost = $8.78
Explanation:
The weighted average method of inventory determines the average cost per unit of inventory each time a new batch is received. or every new batch received the average cost per unit is re-computed by dividing the total value of stock by the outstanding number of units.
The explanation is completed using calculation below:
Total value of stock = (250× $5) + (500×$9) + (375 × 11) = $9,875
Total units of stock = 250 + 500 + 375 = 1,125 units
Weighted average unit cost = Total value of stock / total units of stock
= $9875 / 1125 units = $8.78
Weighted average unit cost = $8.78
Starbucks (Croatia). Starbucks opened its first store in Zagreb, Croatia, in October 2010. In Zagreb, the price of a tall vanilla latte is 25.70 Croatian kunas (kn or HRK).

(a) According to purchasing power parity, is the Croatian kuna overvalued or undervalued?
(b) By what percent is the kuna overvalued or undervalued?
Answer:
a. Overvalued
b. 72.3% overvalued
Explanation:
a. Purchasing power parity when held, shows that prices of a specific good is the same across the world.
Price in New York = $2.65
Price in Zagreb = kn25.70
$1 = 25.70/2.65
$1 = kn9.6981
According to PPP, Croatian Kuna is Overvalued as the exchange rate per the Vanilla Latte is higher than the official exchange rate.
b. = [tex]\frac{9.6981 - 5.6288}{5.6288.}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4.0693}{5.6288}[/tex]
= 72.3% overvalued

Answer:
Buhao Construction
a) Debt-to-Equity Ratio if it borrows $220,000
= Debit/Equity
= $220,000/$1,700,000
= 12.94%
b. EPS = $195,800/17,000
= $11.52
c. EPS = $173,800/17,000

Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Outstanding Equity = 17,000 shares x $100 = $1,700,000
Interest rate = 11%
It is assumed that Buhao Construction pays no taxes
EBIT = $130,000
Debit = $220,000
Interest Expense = $24,200
Net Income = $195,800 ($220,000 - 24,200)
Debit = $420,000
Interest Expense = $46,200
Net Income = $173,800 ($220,000 - 46,200)
b) Debt-to-Equity Ratio of Buhao Construction is the relationship in ratio terms between debts and equity of the company. It shows the percentage of debts over the stockholders' equity.

Given the agile manifesto 4 values, describe what value would be the easiest and what value would be the hardest for you to implement in your organization and why.
Answer and explanation:
values of agile manifesto are:
1. Individual and interactions over process and tools.
2. Working software over comprehensive documentation.
3. Customer collaboration over contract negotiation.
4. Responding to change over following a plan.
Customer collaboration is by far the easiest to implement given the very fact that we are able to communicate and collaborate with the customers in every step of the way during development ensuring that we produce exactly what the customer wants through continuous feedback
The hardest however is the responding change over plan agile value. This is indeed one of the most important as it ensures a dynamic system in development but not quite easy to implement given the need to make changes to features as at when required while sticking to and modifying plans as needed
