A. were necessary as US industries had zero incentive to control pollution.
B. were an inexpensive incentive for industrial polluters to improve performance.
C. are given considerable credit for cleaner air and water in recent decades.
D. draws distinctions between the needs of firms and costly equipment upgrades.

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer is C. are given considerable credit for cleaner air and water in recent decades.

Explanation:

The command-and-control environmental laws are a set of policies first proposed in the early 1970s that protected the environment by limiting the pollution levels. Also, the government demanded certain changes in production methods or the use of technologies to reduce pollution.

Moreover, these regulations are considered to be the main factor that contributed to the reduction in air and water pollution because since the laws were approved air and water pollution had decreased in the country. Also, it is believed these laws protected ecosystems and natural resources, which contributes to the conservation of nature. Thus, these laws "are given considerable credit for cleaner air and water in recent decades".

A stock has an expected return of 12.15 percent, its beta is 1.31, and the expected return on the market is 10.2 percent. What must the risk-free rate be

Answers

Answer:

Rf=risk-free rate=3.91%

Explanation:

E(R) = Rf + ß( Rmarket - Rf )

E(R)= Expected return =12.15%=0.1215

Rf= Risk free rate = ?

ß = Beta = 1.31

Rmarket = Expected return of market = 10.2 %= 0.102

Changing to fraction before solving

0.1215= Rf + 1.31(0.102- rf)

0.1215= Rf +0.13362-1.31Rf

0.13362-0.1215= -Rf+1.3Rf

0.01212=0.31Rf

Rf= 0.01212/0.31= 0.03909 x 100%= 3.909% =3.91%

or Solving directly

12.15=  Rf +1.31(10.2-Rf)

12.15=  Rf +13.362 -1.31Rf

13.362 -12.15=-Rf + 1.31Rf

 1.212= 0.31Rf

Rf =3.909% round off to 3.91%

Which of the following statements regarding a partner's basis of inventory received in a liquidating distribution is True?
A) Partners may either increase or decrease the basis in inventory distributed in a liquidating distribution.
B) Partners may only increase the basis in inventory distributed in a liquidating distribution.
C) Partners may only decrease the basis in inventory distributed in a liquidating distribution.
D) None of these statements is True.

Answers

Answer:

C) Partners may only decrease the basis in inventory distributed in a liquidating distribution.

Explanation:

Liquidating distribution refers to the absence of dividend distribution that is to be allocated to the shareholders in case of the partial or complete liquidation. In this, the whole equity is allocated along with the profit-sharing

In case fo inventory received based on a partner basis, the partners are only eligible to decrease the inventory basis

hence, the option c is correct

. Explain why the tax multiplier is different from the government purchases multiplier, in both sign and relative magnitude.

Answers

Explanation:

This is the case because the tax multiplier has a negative sign due to the negative magnitude or lesser impact it has on the economy.

For example, when government cut taxes income may increase, however not everyone of those income will be spent in the economy because some of it may be saved.

However, a change in government purchases will have a positive impact as well as larger effect on the economy than a mere change in the tax multiplier.

In summary, the tax multiplier is different from the government purchases multiplier, in both sign and relative magnitude because of the varying degrees of their usage.

Variable costs as a percentage of sales for Lemon Inc. are 74%, current sales are $697,000, and fixed costs are $178,000. How much will operating income change if sales increase by $46,300

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= $12,038 increase

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Variable costs as a percentage of sales for Lemon Inc. are 74%

How much will operating income change if sales increase by $46,300.

To calculate the effect on income, we need to calculate the increase in total contribution margin:

Total contribution margin change= 46,300*(1-0.74)

Total contribution margin change= $12,038 increase

Effect on income= $12,038 increase

Marko, Inc., is considering the purchase of ABC Co. Marko believes that ABC Co. can generate cash flows of $5,000, $10,000, and $16,200 over the next three years, respectively. After that time, they feel the business will be worthless. Marko has determined that a rate of return of 12 percent is applicable to this potential purchase. What is Marko willing to pay today to buy ABC Co.

Answers

Answer:

The maximum that Marco is willing to pay to buy ABC Co. today is $23967.0645

Explanation:

The maximum amount that Marco will be willing to pay today will be the present value of the expected cash flows discounted at the required rate of return. Using the discounted cash flows approach also known as DCF approach, we can calculate the present value of the cash flows,

Present Value = CF1 / (1+r) + CF2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + CFn / (1+r)^n

Where,

CF is the cash flowr is the required rate of return

Present value = 5000 / (1+0.12)  +  10000 / (1+0.12)^2  +  16200 / (1+0.12)^3

Present value = $23967.0645

The maximum that Marco is willing to pay to buy ABC Co. today is $23967.0645

After reviewing his budget, Josh realizes he can't spend more than $40 on a pair of new shoes, so he decides to shop only at stores that carry shoes in his price range. What is this an example of? A. A rational choice B. A value-added motivation C. An emotional choice D. An impulsive selection

Answers

Answer:

A. A rational choice

Explanation:

I think that this is an example of a rational choice because there is a logical reason that Josh wants to buy shoes that cost less than $40. Value-added wouldn't work, because there is no added value. Emotional choice wouldn't work either because the question does not say that Josh wants a specific type of shoes. Lastly, impulsive selection doesn't fit because the reason Josh doesn't want to spend more than $40 dollars is not random.

Major Co. reported 2016 income of $303,000 from continuing operations before income taxes and a before-tax loss on discontinued operations of $75,000. All income is subject to a 36% tax rate. In the 2016 income statement, Major Co. would show the following line-item amounts for income tax expense and net income: Multiple Choice $109,080 and $228,000. $82,080 and $378,000. $109,080 and $145,920. $82,080 and $193,920.

Answers

Answer: $109,080; $145,920

Explanation:

Based on the information that have been provided in the question, the following can be gotten:

The amount for income tax expenses will be:

= 36% of $303,000

= 36/100 × $303,000

= 0.36 × $303,000

= $109,080

The net income will be:

Reported income = $303,000

Less income tax = $109,080

Less loss on discounted operation = $48,000

Net income = $145,920

Loss on discounted operation:

= $75,000 × (1 - 36%)

= $75,000 × (1 - 0.36)

= $75,000 × 0.64

= $48,000

Last year Mason Inc. had a total assets turnover of 1.33 and an equity multiplier of 1.75. Its sales were $195,000 and its net income was $10,549. The CFO believes that the company could have operated more efficiently, lowered its costs, and increased its net income by $5,250 without changing its sales, assets, or capital structure. Had it cut costs and increased its net income in this amount, by how much would the ROE have changed

Answers

Answer:

Return on equity (ROE) would have changed by 6.27%.

Explanation:

In accounting ratio, we know that:

Asset Turnover = Sales/Total Assets .............................. (1)

From equation (1), we can solve for Total Assets as follows:

Total Assets = Sales / Asset Turnover ............................ (2)

Substituting the values in the question into equation (2), we have:

Total Assets = $195,000 / 1.33 = $146,616.54

Also, we know that:

Equity Multiplier = Total Assets/Total Equity ......................... (3)

We can solve Total Equity from equation (3) as follows:

Total Equity = Total Assets / Equity Multiplier ..................... (4)

Substituting the relevant values into equation (4), we have:

Total Equity = $146,616.54 / 1.75 = $83,780.88

As a result, we have:

Return on Equity = Net Income/Total Equity = $10,549 / $83,780.88 = 0.1259, or 12.59%

If the company had operated more efficiently, we would have:

New net income = Net income + Amount of increase in net income = $10,549 + $5,250 = $15,799

New return on equity = New net Income / Total Equity = $15,799 / $83,780.88 = 0.1886, or 18.86%

Change in return on equity = New return on equity - Return on Equity = 18.86% - 12.59% = 6.27%

Therefore, return on equity (ROE) would have changed by 6.27%.

b. Calculate Sammy’s share of any Zebra long-term capital gain.

Answers

Answer:

a. $70,000

b. $6,000

Explanation:

Non separately income = Operating income +Depreciation recapture income -COGS -ADM expense -depreciation

= $100,000 + $25,000 - $40,000 - $5,000 - $10,000  

= $70,000

a. Sammy share of Zebra’s non-separately computed income or loss

= $70,000 * 0.40

= $28,000

b. Sammy share in Long term capital gain

= $15,000 * 0.40

= $6,000

The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: Multiple Choice Is credited when bad debts expense is estimated and recorded. All of the options are correct. Is a contra asset account. Is used instead of reducing accounts receivable directly.

Answers

Answer: All of the options are correct.

Explanation:

The Allowance for Doubtful Account is a contra account because it reduces the value of the Accounts Receivable Account and does so in order to account for the possibility that some customers will not pay the amounts they owe.

It is credited when Bad debts are estimated and recorded; that way this reduction in Accounts receivable does not have to go out of the Accounts Receivable account directly.This will ensure that the Accounts Receivable Account is not volatile as it attempts to keep up with all the bad debts incurred.

Johnson's Plumbing's fixed costs are $700,000 and the unit contribution margin is $17. What amount of units must be sold in order to realize an operating income of $100,000

Answers

Answer:

Target profit in units = 47058.82 rounded off to 47059 units

Explanation:

The break even units of sales are the number of units that must be sold in order for the company to have enough total revenue to cover its total costs. It is a point in the number of units where there is no profit or no loss.

We can use the break even analysis and formulas to calculate the number of units required to earn a certain target profit. Thus, we will just need to add the target profit amount to the fixed costs in the break even in units formula. The formula to calculate the target profit in units is,

Target profit in units = (Fixed costs + Target profit) / Contribution margin per unit

Target profit in units = (700000 + 100000) / 17

Target profit in units = 47058.82 rounded off to 47059 units

Twelve months ago, you purchased 10-year Treasury notes with a face value of $1,000. The interest rate is 2.45 percent. What is the dollar amount of interest you will receive each year for each note? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Explanation:

Relevant data provided

Face value = $1,000

Interest rate = 3.45%

Based on the above information

The computation of the dollar amount of interest is shown below:-

Interest per year = Face value × Interest rate

= $1,000 × 2.45%

= $24.50

Therefore for computing the interest per year we simply applied the above formula.

Has Chinawa violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964?

Answers

Answer:

Chinawa has violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964

Explanation:

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 states that:

It will be unlawful employment practice for an employer -

(1) to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or otherwise to discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; or

(2) to limit, segregate, or classify his employees or applicants for employment in any way which would deprive or tend to deprive any individual of employment opportunities or otherwise adversely affect his status as an employee, because of such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

Since one-fourth of those in minority group complete high school, it is expected of him to hire from those group in-order to balance his cleaning crew.

Answers

Answer:  d. $1.67

Explanation:

The amount of sales that a company generates per $1 of fixed assets is known as the Fixed Assets turnover Ratio.

Formula is;

= [tex]\frac{Net Sales}{Average Fixed Assets}[/tex]

Average Fixed Assets = [tex]\frac{Beginning Balance + Ending Balance}{2}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{3,740 + 3,470}{2}[/tex]

= $3,605

Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio = [tex]\frac{6,020}{3,605}[/tex]

= 1.67

Compensatory damages are money paid to the plaintiff, to pay for losses incurred, injury or damages by negligence or unlawful conduct of the defendant in a civil court case. Before these compensations can be paid, the plaintiff has to prove in amount, the losses incurred and that these losses are directly related to the activity of the other party. Since the amount lost due to the choosing of the failed contract is $3,500, the plaintiff can file a suit for the compensation of the same amount.

On another hand, punitive damage may be compensation that is over and above the losses incurred by the plaintiff, and this is aimed mainly to provide an incentive against the repetition of such acts that caused the plaintiff such losses.

Answers

Answer:

$160,600

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of goods manufactured is shown below:

= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + manufacturing cost applied + beginning work in process - ending work in process

= $58,600 + $33,400 + $54,600 + $40,000 - $26,000

= $160,600

Hence, the cost of goods manufactured for June is $160,600

Answers

Answer:

Pelican​ Paper, Inc., and Timberland​ Forest, Inc.

Financial leverage and profitability ratios:

a) Debt Ratio = Total liabilities divided by Total assets x 100

Pelican = $1,000,000/$10,900,000 x 100

= 9.2%

Timberland = $5,500,000/$10,900,000 x 100

= 50%

Times Interest Earned Ratio = EBIT/Interest Expense

Pelican = $5,750,000/$100,000

= 57.5 times

Timberland = $5,750,000/$550,000

= 10.4 times

A discussion of their financial risk and ability to cover the costs in relation to each other:

C. ​Timberland's earnings will be more volatile. This additional risk is supported by the significantly lower times interest earned ratio of Timberland. Pelican can face a very large reduction in net income and still be able to cover its interest expense.

D. Timberland has a much higher degree of financial leverage than does Pelican. As a​ result, Timberland's earnings will be more​volatile, causing the common stock owners to face greater risk.

Using the lower of cost or market, what should the total inventory value be for the following items: Item Quantity Unit Cost Price Unit Market Price Total Cost Price Total Market Price Lower of Cost or Market A 201 $7 $11 $1,407 $2,211 $ B 98 17 15 1,666 1,470 C 71 23 26 1,633 1,846 $

Answers

Answer:

$4,706

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that the inventory should be valued at lower of cost or market value which is shown below:

Tota cost price for all markets is

= Market A + Market B + market C

= $1,407 + $1,666 + $1,633

= $4,706

And, the total market price for all markets is

= Market A + Market B + market C

= $2,211 + $1,470 + $1,846

= $5,527

So based on the above calculation, the cost price should be lower off and the same is to be considered

IMC is the process of coordinating all activities performed by entities of the distribution channel to make sure that the right product is in the right place and at the right time for consumers. a.True b. False

Answers

Answer:

IMC

a.True

Explanation:

The coordination of all distributive activities is a just part of the integrated marketing communication that is IMC, as it tries to offer seamless consumer experience.  For instance, if  Company XYZ fails to provide the right product in the right place and at the right time for consumers, then the essence of its IMC is lost.

IMC means Integrated Marketing Communication.  It is a marketing communication approach that integrates many components for marketing communication effectiveness.  The foundation component ensures that IMC approach provides the right products in the right place and at the right time for consumers.  IMC also integrates the corporate culture, with a focus on branding and customer satisfaction.

Since IMC aims to increase sales and profits, sharpen the brand's competitive advantage, and achieve brand loyalty, it means that the goals cannot be achieved when Company XYZ's distribution channel offers empty promises by not putting the right XYZ product in the right place and at the right time for consumers.

Ending = $116,000 + $90,000 +

Answers

Answer:

net income = $240,000

Explanation:

beginning stockholders' equity $523,000

beginning liabilities $204,000, ending liabilities $232,000 ($28,000 increase)

beginning paid in capital $137,000, ending $174,000 ($37,000 increase)

assets increased by $259,000

dividends $46,000

assets = liabilities + equity

beginning assets = $204,000 + $523,000 = $727,000

ending assets = $727,000 + $259,000 = $986,000

ending equity = ending assets - ending liabilities = $986,000 - $232,000 =  $754,000

beginning equity = beginning paid in capital + retained earnings

beginning retained earnings = $523,000 - $137,000 = $386,000

ending equity = ending paid in capital + retained earnings

ending retained earnings = $754,000 - $174,000 = $580,000

ending retained earnings = beginning retained earnings + net income - dividends

$580,000 = $386,000 + net income - $46,000

net income = $580,000 + $46,000 - $386,000 = $240,000
