Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. Value of shareholder's equity is computed as
= Total assets - Current liabilities - long term debt
= [($4,200 + $24,400) - $3,750 - $8,400]
= $28,600 - $3,750 - $8,400
= $16,450
2. How much is net working capital
This is computed as;
= Total current asset - Total current liabilities
= $4,200 - $3,750
= $450
By convention, a swap buyer on an interest rate swap agrees to act as the dealer in the swap agreement. hold both principal and interest to contract maturity. periodically pay a fixed rate of interest and receive a floating rate of interest. back both sides of the swap agreement. periodically pay a floating rate of interest and receive a fixed rate of interest.
Answer:
periodically pay a fixed rate of interest and receive a floating rate of interest.
Explanation:
The interest rate (rate of return) can be defined as the percentage of interest or dividends earned on money that is invested.
In Financial accounting, a return refers to the amount of profit generated by an investor on an investment over a specific period of time.
Basically, the interest rate which is typically expressed as a percentage of the initial costs of an investment can either be a gain or a loss on an investment. Therefore, a positive rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, simply means that an investor is making a profit (gains) while a negative rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, indicates that the investor is running at a loss.
By convention, a swap buyer on an interest rate swap agrees to periodically pay a fixed rate of interest and receive a floating rate of interest.

Scenario #3: Isaiah
Isaiah is in his 50s and currently does not have a retirement fund. However, he recently read a few articles about the insufficient savings of people in retirement and, as a result, he decides he wants to start now. He saves $500 per month for 15 years and earns 7% by investing in the stock market* through an index fund.
9. What is the total balance in the account after 15 years?
10. How much of the total did Isaiah contribute himself?
11. How much money did Isaiah make through compounded returns in this investment account?
12. Explain why Isaiah’s total balance is less than Pamela’s even though his money earned the same rate of return and his monthly contribution was higher than hers.
______________________________________________________
Question 4: If someone you know wanted to start investing, what best practices would you recommend they follow so they can harness the power of compounding? Explain your reasoning.
please hurry
Answer:
did anyone ever get the answer to this?
Explanation:
9. The total balance in Isaiah's retirement savings account at the end of 15 years is $159,405.62.
10. The total amount that Isaiah contributed to the savings account is $90,000.
11. Through compounded returns in the investment account, Isaiah earned interest income of $69,405.62.
12. The reason Isaiah's account balance is less than Pamela's is because Isaiah started contributing in his 50s, while Pamela started in her 30s.
13. The best strategy to harness the power of compounding is to start saving early. If it were possible, start saving in your 20s. When you start savings early, the investor reaps greatly from the power of multiplication inherent in compounding interest.
Data and Calculations:
Monthly savings into retirement account = $500
Period of savings = 15 years or 180 months
Interest rate = 7%
N (# of periods) = 180 months (15 years x 12)
I/Y (Interest per year) = 7%
PV (Present Value) = 0
PMT (Periodic Payment) = $500
Results
FV (Future Value) = $159,405.62
Sum of all periodic payments = $90,000.00 ($500 x 180)
Total Interest = $69,405.62
Thus, if Isaiah had started saving in his 30s like Pamela, he could be having $905,780.38 in his retirement savings account by the time he is 65 years old.

Identify the depreciation method used for each of the preceding comparative balance sheet presentations.If a declinining balance method is used be sure to indicate the percentage.
Answer:
a. Production Units method
b. Straight Line depreciation
c. Double declining method
Explanation:
Straight Line Depreciation: [575,000 - 118,000] / 4 = 114,250 per year
Declining Balance Method :
Year 2019 : 19,360 / 88,000 * [ 575,000 - 118,000 ] = 100,540
Year 2020 : 28,160 / 88,000 * [ 575,000 - 118,000 ] = 146,240
Year 2021 : 24,640 / 88,000 * [ 575,000 - 118,000 ] = 127,960
Year 2022 : 15,840 / 88,000 * [ 575,000 - 118,000 ] = 82,260

The firm has never paid a dividend to its common stockholders. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
a. The company's net income in 2013 was higher than in 2012.
b. The market price of the firm's stock doubled in 2013.
c. The firm issued common stock in 2013.
d. The firm had positive net income in both 2012 and 2013, but its net income in 2013 was lower than it was in 2012.
e. The company has more equity than debt on its balance sheet.
Answer: The firm issued common stock in 2013.
Explanation:
Since the firm has never paid a dividend to its common stockholders, we can see that the firm issued common stock in 2013.
Looking clearly at the common equity section, we can see that there was an increase in the common stock from $1000 to $2000.
The reduction in the retained earnings from $2340 to $2000 also shows that there was a loss.
Based on the above scenarios, we can say that the firm issued common stock in 2013.

If annual overhead costs are expected to be $958000 and direct labor costs are expected to be $1000000, then if the activity base is direct labor costs:
A. $1.04 is the predetermined overhead rate.
B. a predetermined overhead rate cannot be determined.
C. for every dollar of manufacturing overhead, 1.04 cents of direct labor will be assigned.
D. for every dollar of direct labor, 95.8 cents of manufacturing overhead will be assigned.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $0.958 per direct labor dollar
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated overhead costs= $958,000
Estimated direct labor costs= $1,000,000
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 958,000 / 1,000,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $0.958 per direct labor dollar

Add: Opening Work in Process $9,300
Add: Purchases $185,000
Less: Closing Material $49,000
Less: Closing Work in process $19,800
Less: Closing finished goods $34,600
= $134,900
Overhead Rate Application:
Budgeted Overhead 55% of direct labor cost [55% * 250,000] = $137,500
Actual Overhead is $173,500
Under applied Overhead is $36,000
Sigma Corporation applies overhead cost to jobs on the basis of direct labor cost. Job V, which was started and completed during the current period, shows charges of $6,000 for direct materials, $9,900 for direct labor, and $7,128 for overhead on its job cost sheet. Job W, which is still in process at year-end, shows charges of $3,000 for direct materials and $4,900 for direct labor.
Required:
Calculate the overhead cost be added to Job W at year-end
Answer:
$6,811
Explanation:
Job V had $9,900 of direct labor and $7,128 of overhead was applied to the job
= $9,900 ÷ $7,128
= $1.39 overhead rate.
This means that the application was based on taking $9,900 of Direct labor × $1.39 rate = $7,128 overhead
For Job W, take $4,900 DL × same $1.39 rate = $6,811
Therefore, the overhead cost to be applied to job w at year end is $6,811
You have recently won the super jackpot in the Washington State Lottery. On reading the fine print, you discover that you have the following two options:
a. You will receive 31 annual payments of $250,000, with the first payment being delivered today. The income will be taxed at a rate of 28 percent. Taxes will be withheld when the checks are issued.
b. You will receive $530,000 now, and you will not have to pay taxes on this amount. In addition, beginning one year from today, you will receive $200,000 each year for 30 years. The cash flows from this annuity will be taxed at 28 percent. Using a discount rate of 6.25 percent, which option should you select?
Answer:
should choose option a
Explanation:
option a)
annuity due, 31 payments of $180,000 per year, 6.25% discount rate
Present value = $180,000 x 14.40432 (PV annuity due factor, 6.25%, 31 periods) = $2,592,726
option b)
$500,000 today + ordinary annuity, 30 periods, 6.25%, $144,000
present value = $500,000 + ($144,000 x 13.40432 [PV annuity factor, 6.25%, 30 periods)] = $2,430,222
Washburn Company produces earbuds. During the tear, manufacturing overhead costs are estimated to be $200,000. Estimated machine usage is 2,500 hours. The company assigns overhead based on machine hours. Job No. 551 used 90 machine hours . Compute the predetermined overhead rate, determine the amount of overhead to apply to Job No. 551, and prepare the entry to apply overhead to Job No. 551 on January 15.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 200,000 / 2,500
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $80 per machine hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to Job 551:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 80*90
Allocated MOH= $7,200
Finally, the entry to record the allocation:
Work in process inventory 7,200
Manufacturing overhead (apply Job 551) 7,200

Defining the research problem and research objectives is often regarded as the most difficult step in the marketing research project. Although this step is challenging, it is critically important because it is impossible to solve problems that have not been clearly defined. With the research problem defined, researchers must decide on the type of research they will pursue to generate the data they need. The three types of research (also called objectives) are exploratory, descriptive, and causal.
Match the problem description into the type of research that would most likely be used to generate the appropriate data.
1. Exploratory
2. Descriptive
3. Causal
a. Thirsty athletes: Greg needs to understand how the consumption of sports drinks varies by geographical region.
b. Hypotheses help: Joe's research problem is still not clearly defined, and he needs to generate some hypotheses for his research.
c. High heels: Sophia wants to know if she can increase the sales of shoes in her boutique by moving the display from the back of the store to next to the registers.
d. Yoga love: Gema wants to open a yoga studio in her hometown, but first she wants to understand how her hometown's residents feel about practicing yoga.
Answer:
Problem Description and Type of Research
a. Thirsty athletes: Greg needs to understand how the consumption of sports drinks varies by geographical region.
2. Descriptive
b. Hypotheses help: Joe's research problem is still not clearly defined, and he needs to generate some hypotheses for his research.
1. Exploratory
c. High heels: Sophia wants to know if she can increase the sales of shoes in her boutique by moving the display from the back of the store to next to the registers.
3. Causal
d. Yoga love: Gema wants to open a yoga studio in her hometown, but first she wants to understand how her hometown's residents feel about practicing yoga.
1. Exploratory
Explanation:
1. Exploratory research clarifies the nature of the problem to be addressed. It is a preliminary research undertaken before additional research is conducted.
2. Descriptive research describes the situation of a problem by asking how, what, where, and where questions instead of focusing on “why” a particular phenomenon occurs.
3. Causal research (or experimental studies) determines whether a variable or more variables cause or affect the values of other research variables. It traces the cause and effect of a phenomenon.
General Manufacturing wants to borrow $1 million for three months. It uses its inventory as collateral for an 11% (APR) loan under a warehouse arrangement where the warehouse fee is $12,000 paid at the start of the three months. What is the EAR of this loan for General Manufacturing?
A) 2.8%.
B) 4.0%.
C) 17.1%.
D) 24.4%.
Answer:
C) 17.1%
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the EAR of this loan for General Manufacturing
First step is to compute FV using a financial calculator
PV =$1,000,000
I =11/12 =0.9167
N =3 years
Hence ,
FV =$1,027,752.85
Second step is to calculate the amount received
Amount received =$1,000,000 -$12,000
Amount received=$988,000
Now let calculate the actual rate
Actual rate =1,027,753 / 988,000
Actual rate =1.0402
Hence,
EAR =17.1%
Therefore the EAR of this loan for General Manufacturing will be 17.1%
Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $69,200 and $13,950 respectively. In addition to their salaries, they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $1,150 from corporate bonds. Marc contributed $3,150 to an individual retirement account, and Marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $2,150. Marc and Michelle have a 10-year-old son, Matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, Marc and Michelle are allowed to claim a $2,000 child tax credit for Matthew. Marc and Michelle paid $7,300 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $6,330 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the course of the year. (Use the 2018 tax rate schedules.)
a. What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle's deductions from AGI?
b. What is Marc and Michele's adjusted gross income?
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
a)
Gross income = Marc salary + Michelle salary + corporate bond interest = $69200 + $13950 + $1150 = $84300
AGI deductions = contribution + alimony = $3150 + $2150 = $5300
Adjusted gross income = Gross income - AGI deductions = $84300 - $5300 =$79000
Let us assume married filing jointly = $24000
Itemized deductions = $7300
Greater of married filing jointly and Itemized deductions = married filing jointly = $24000
personal and dependency exemptions = $4050 per person
Therefore personal and dependency exemptions for Marc, Michelle and their child = 3 * $4050 = $12150
total amount of Marc and Michelle's deductions from AGI = Greater of married filing jointly and Itemized deductions + personal and dependency exemptions = $24000 + $12150 = $36150
b) Adjusted gross income = Gross income - AGI deductions = $84300 - $5300 =$79000
William Parks, a special agent of the U.S. Customs Service, was investigating allegations that Bet-Air, Inc. (a seller of spare aviation parts and supplies) had supplied restricted military parts to Iran. Parks entered Bet-Air's property and removed a bag of shredded documents from a garbage dumpster. The dumpster was located near the Bet-Air offices in a parking area reserved for the firm's employees. To reach the dumpster, Parks had to travel 40 yards on a private paved road. No signs indicated that the road was private. In later judicial proceedings, Parks testified that at the time he traveled on the road, he did not know he was on Bet-Air's property. When reconstructed, some of the previously shredded documents contained information seemingly relevant to the investigation. Parks used the shredded documents and the information they revealed as the basis for obtaining a warrant to search the Bet-Air premises. In executing the search warrant, Parks and other law enforcement officers seized numerous documents and Bet-Air records.
A federal grand jury indicted Bet-Air's chairman, Terence Hall, and other defendants on various counts related to the alleged supplying of restricted military parts to Iran. Contending that the Fourth Amendment had been violated, Hall filed a motion asking the court to suppress (i.e., exclude) all evidence derived from the warrantless search of the dumpster and all evidence seized during the search of the Bet-Air premises (the search pursuant to the warrant). The federal district court denied Hall's motion. Following a jury trial, Hall was convicted on all counts and sentenced to prison. He appealed, again arguing that the Fourth Amendment was violated. How did the appellate court rule? Was there a Fourth Amendment violation?
Answer:
The appellate court did not rule in favor of Hall. Instead, it upheld the lower court's rulings. When Hall appealed up to the Supreme Court, the highest court affirmed Hall's conviction and sentencing.
This shows that there was no violation of the Fourth Amendment in Hall's case. In addition, the prosecution established the existence of probable cause in the absence of a valid warrant to search and obtain evidence that would establish the case against Terrence Hall, leading to his eventual conviction.
Explanation:
Although, the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution protects an individual from unreasonable searches and seizures by the government, it does not guarantee against all searches and seizures. It only guarantees against searches and seizures that are regarded as legally unreasonable. This implies that there may be probable cause for searches and seizures.

TB MC Qu. 03-111 A manufacturer of cedar shingles...
A manufacturer of cedar shingles has supplied the following data:
Bundles of cedar shakes produced and sold 262,000
Sales revenue $ 2,122,200
Variable manufacturing expense $ 975,200
Fixed manufacturing expense $ 487,000
Variable selling and administrative expense $ 260,400
Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 276,000
Net operating income $ 123,600"
The company's contribution margin ratio is closest to:__________ (Do not round Intermediate calculations. Round your answer to whole percentage)
a) 42%
b) 34%
c) 66%
d) 58%
Answer:
A. 42%
Explanation:
Given the above information,
Contribution margin ratio = (Selling price - Unitary variable cost) / Selling price
Selling price = $2,122,200 / 262,000 = $8.1
Total variable cost = Variable manufacturing expense $975,200 + Variable selling and administrative expense $260,400 = $1,235,600
Unitary variable cost = $1,235,600 / 262,000 = $4.72
Contribution margin ratio = (8.1 - 4.72)/8.1 = 41.73% = 42%
Oslo Food Company distributes to consumers coupons which may be presented (on or before a stated expiration date) to grocers for discounts on certain products of Flavor. The grocers are reimbursed when they send the coupons to Oslo. In Oslo's experience, 55% of such coupons are redeemed, and generally one month elapses between the date a grocer receives a coupon from a consumer and the date Oslo receives it. During 2021 Oslo issued two separate series of coupons as follows:
Consumer Amount Disbursed
Issued On Total Value Expiration Date as of 12/31/18
1/1/18 $500,000 6/30/18 $236,000
7/1/18 840,000 12/31/18 350,000
The only journal entry recorded to date is: debit to coupon expense and credit to cash of $815,000. The December 31, 2018 balance sheet should include a liability for unredeemed coupons of:_____.
a) $0.
b) $70,000.
c) $184,000.
d) $420,000.
Answer: $112,000
Explanation:
$840,000 worth of coupons had been issued. The company expects that 55% of these coupons will be redeemed.
= 840,000 * 55%
= $462,000
Out of this, by year end only $350,000 have been disbursed, the amount left as a liability will be:
= 462,000 - 350,000
= $112,000

Explanation:
During the last financial crisis, it was discovered that the financial sector was not sufficiently supervised. They tended to run their institutions without regard to the financial disasters that their activities might generate in the economy. To forecast financial recklessness, Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Act in 2010. The Act created a new agency for consumer protection in the financial sector. It promoted financial stability by improving accountability and transparency, especially with regard to derivative transactions. It took steps to curtail excessive risk-taking by financial institutions.
