In your meeting with an e-book publisher representative, a particular e-book from the website has become too expensive at RM 50 a month, and it caused you to earn some extra income. You are going to unsubscribe if they do not change the subscription plan. What would you do if the representative suggested for a "free" subscription for your customer for a few months?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

would accept the offer

Explanation:

Yes, this appears to be a cost-effective decision because the fact is that, I have been spending for years with this particular e-book website and by offering me a "free" subscription for a few months gives me ample time to adjust to the new subscription fee. I it even caused me to earn some extra income.

It a common practice for some businesses to offer free subscription plans to all or some of their customers for a brief time period after which they will start paying.

The result of the Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions was to:_______

a. Make it obligatory for companies to adopt a zero-tolerance approach toward grease payments.
b. Make grease payments mandatory in order to obtain exclusive preferential treatment in a host nation.
c. Consider payment of speed money to be moral, but illegal.
d. Make bribery of foreign officials a criminal offense but not consider facilitating payments a criminal offense.
e. Make it mandatory for companies to adhere to the pollution control standards of their home country in all the nations in which they do business.

Answers

Answer: d. Make bribery of foreign officials a criminal offense but not consider facilitating payments a criminal offense.

Explanation:

In December 1997, signatories accounting for around 70% of World Trade adopted the Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions which stated that countries must install Legislative laws that would prohibit the bribing of foreign officials as well as strict penalties for parties who engage in such. This was done to ensure that the playing field was level so to speak instead of one company getting special treatment because they paid for it.

One concern however was that the Convention did not consider Facilitating Payments a criminal offence which means that it could be used as a bypass for the bribery of foreign officials to still happen.  

Venus Creations sells window treatments (shades, blinds, and awnings) to both commercial and residential customers. The following information relates to its budgeted operations for the current year.
Commercial Residential
Revenues $300,000 $480,000
Direct materials costs $30,000 $50,000
Direct labor costs 100,000 300,000
Overhead costs 85,000 215,000 150,000 500,000
Operating income (loss) $85,000 $(20,000)
The controller, Peggy Kingman, is concerned about the residential product line. She cannot understand why this line is not more profitable given that the installations of window coverings are less complex for residential customers. In addition, the residential client base resides in close proximity to the company office, so travel costs are not as expensive on a per client visit for residential customers. As a result, she has decided to take a closer look at the overhead costs assigned to the two product lines to determine whether a more accurate product costing model can be developed. Here are the three activity cost pools and related information she developed:
Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Cost Drivers
Scheduling and travel $85,000 Hours of travel
Setup time 90,000 Number of setups
Supervision 60,000 Direct labor cost
Expected Use of Cost Drivers per Product
Commercial Residential
Scheduling and travel 750 500
Setup time 350 250
Required:
1. Compute the activity-based overhead rates for each of the three cost pools.
Overhead Rates
Scheduling and travel
Setup time
Supervision
2. Determine the overhead cost assigned to each product line.

The founder of alchemy products inc. discovered a way to turn gold into lead and patented this new technology. he then formed a corporation and invested $200,000 in setting up a production plant. he believes that he could sell his patent for $50 million.
a. What are the book value and market value of the firm?
b. If there are 1 million shares of stock in the new corporation, what would be the price per share and the book value per share?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a. What are the book value and market value of the firm?

The book value is $200,000 which is the amount invested in setting up the production plant.

The market value of the firm is the addition of the book value and the patent. This will be:

= $50,000,000 + $200,000

= $50,200,000

b. If there are 1 million shares of stock in the new corporation, what would be the price per share and the book value per share?

The book value per share is the book value divided by the outstanding shares. This will be:

= $200,000/1,000,000

= $0.2 pee share

Price per share will be:

= $50,200,000/1,000,000

= $50.2

Mary just bought a 20-year bond with an 8% coupon rate (paid semi-annually) and $1000 par value for $1050. She is expecting an effective annual yield (EAY) of

Answers

Answer:

7.65%

Explanation:

Calculation for Mary effective annual yield (EAY)

The first step is to find the Semiannual coupon payment using this formula

Semiannual coupon payment=(Par value×Coupon rate percentage/2)

Let plug in the formula

Semiannual coupon payment =($1,000 × 8%) ÷2

Semiannual coupon payment= $80 ÷ 2 = $40

Second step is to find The total number of compounding period will be 20 years bond × The number of the compounding period er year which is 2

Hence,

The total number of compounding period will= 2 periods per year × 20 years = 40 periods.

Third step is to use the financial calculator which calculated the rate as 3.76% which means that:

Semiannual yield will be :3.76%

Therefore the Annual yield will be calculatedas = 3.76% ×2

Annual yield= 7.51%

The last step is to find the effective annual yield (EAY) using this formula

EAY = [1+(Quoted interest rate / m]m -1

Let plug in the formula

EAY = [1+(0.0751÷2)]2 -1

EAY= 7.65%.

Therefore the effective annual yield (EAY) will be 7.65%

1. Calculate the growth rate between 2010 and 2014 for a company with the following revenue. Year Revenue 2010 735 2011 985 2012 1152 2013 1347 2014 1658 2015 1895

Answers

Answer:  230.75 (units/ year)

Explanation:

To compute the growth rate between 2010 and 2014, we use the following formula :

Growth rate = [(Revenue in 2014) -(Revenue in 2010)]÷ [Difference between 2010 and 2014]

From the table, Revenue in 2010 = 735

Revenue in 2014= 1658

Then, Growth rate = (1658 -735)÷ (2014-2010)

= 923÷  4

= 230.75

Hence, the growth rate between 2010 and 2014 =  230.75 (units/ year)

Your portfolio is comprised of 40 percent of stock X, 15 percent of stock Y, and 45 percent of stock Z. Stock X has a beta of 1.24, stock Y has a beta of 1.49, and stock Z has a beta of 0.41. What is the beta of your portfolio?

Answers

Answer:

Portfolio beta = 0.904

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is the weighted average of all the beta associated with each of the different stock making up the portfolio. The betas are weighted using the probability associated with each of the stock.  

Portfolio beta = WaRa + Wb+Rb + Wn+Rn  

W- weight of the beta, R- Stock beta -  

W- Probability of the beta, R- stock beta

Note that the sum of the probability of different outcomes should equal to one. Hence, the probability of economy being normal is

Portfolio beta = (0.4 × 1.24)  + (0.15 × 1.49) +  ( 0.45 ×0.41) =0.904

Portfolio beta = 0.904

1. Bond interest expense Dr  ($3,600,000 × 8% ÷ 2) $144,000

         To Cash $144,000

(Being the first interest payment is recorded)

For recording this , we debited the bond interest expense as it increased the expense and credited the cash as it decreased the assets

2. Cash Dr $400,000

          To Bond payable $400,000

(being the cash sale of the bond is recorded)

For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the bond payable as it also increased the liabilities

The inflation rate over the past year was 1.8 percent. If an investment had a real return of 7.2 percent, what was the nominal return on the investment

Answers

Answer:

9.13%

Explanation:

The computation of the nominal return on the investment is shown below:

As we know that

Nominal interest rate = {(1 + real interest rate) × (1 + inflation rate)} - 1

= {(1 + 0.072) × (1 + 0.018)} - 1

= (1.072 × 1.018) - 1

= 9.13%

Hence, the nominal interest rate could be find out by applying the above formula i.e by considering the real interest rate and the inflation rate

If the actual budget deficit is $180 billion, the economy is operating $400 billion above its potential, and the marginal tax rate is 13 percent, what are the structural deficit or surplus and the cyclical deficit or surplus

Answers

Answer:

Structural Deficit $232 billion

Cyclical Deficit $52 billion

Explanation:

Calculation for the Structual deficit and the cyclical deficit

STRUCTURAL DEFICIT

Using this formula

Structural Deficit =Actual budget +(Economy Operating amount×Marginal tax rate)

Let plug in the formula

Structural Deficit =$180 billion +($400 billion ×0.13)

Structural Deficit =$180 billion +$52 billion

Structural Deficit =$232 billion

CYCLICAL DEFICT

Using this formula

Cyclical Deficit = Economy Operating amount *Marginal tax rate

Let plug in the formula

Cyclical Deficit=$400 billion ×0.13

Cyclical Deficit=$52 billion

Therefore Structural Deficit is $232 billion while Cyclical Deficit is $52 billion.

A consumer values a car at $30,000 and a producer values the same car at $20,000. What amount of tax will result in unconsummated transaction

Answers

The question is incomplete:

A consumer values a car at $30,000 and a producer values the same car at $20,000. If the transaction is completed at $24,000, what level of sales tax will result in unconsummated transaction?

a. 0%

b. 25%

c. 20%

d. 40%

Answer:

d. 40%

Explanation:

The unconsummated transaction would occur when the price that the customer has to pay is higher than the value that he gave to the car. According to that, the answer would be the tax that would increase the final price to more than $30,000:

0%: $24,000

25%: 24,000*1.25= $30,000

20%: 24,000*1.20= $28,800

40%: 24,000*1.40= $33,600

The answer is that the amount of tax will result in an unconsummated transaction is 40%.

Answers

Answer:

It is too late for him to dis-affirmed the contract.

Explanation:

Contract is the legal binding agreement document between two parties for them to obey any given conditions specified in the document. In the case of Bob, despite the fact that he was a minor, his signature on the BMW contract shows that it is binding between ABC Motors and him.

The motor company might not be aware of his legal age which shows he is a minor before entering the agreement with him. It is expected that, he should honor his contract to the latter.

Answers

Answer:

The machine of Lone wolf Technologies should be replaced judging by the differential analysis report.

Explanation:

Annual costs and expenses (present machine) = $161,500

Annual costs and expenses (new machine) = $13,7800

Annual differential decrease in costs and expenses = $23,700

Number of years applicable = 5 years

Total differential decrease in costs and expenses, five-year total = $118,500

Cost of new machine = $113,800

Net differential decrease in costs and expenses, five-year total = $4,700

The machine should be replaced!

The Polishing Department of Bonita Company has the following production and manufacturing cost data for September. Materials are entered at the beginning of the process. Production: Beginning inventory 1,580 units that are 100% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs; units started during the period are 41,200; ending inventory of 6,600 units 10% complete as to conversion costs.


Manufacturing costs: Beginning inventory costs, comprised of $20,600 of materials and $14,674 of conversion costs; materials costs added in Polishing during the month, $186,883; labor and overhead applied in Polishing during the month, $127,600 and $257,440, respectively.

Required:
a. Compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs for the month of September.
b. Compute the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month.
c. Determine the costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.

Answers

Answer:

a. materials =  42,780 and conversion costs = 36,840

b. materials = $4.85 and conversion costs = $10.85

c. units transferred out =   $568,026 and in process =  $39,171

Explanation:

First calculate the number of units completed and transferred out of the  Polishing Department.

Units completed and transferred out  = 1,580  + 41,200 - 6,600

                                                                 = 36,180

Calculation of equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs for the month of September

materials

Units completed and transferred out (36,180 × 100%) = 36,180

Units of Ending Work In Process (6,600 × 100%)         =  6,600

Total equivalent units of production for materials       = 42,780

conversion costs

Units completed and transferred out (36,180 × 100%)             = 36,180

Units of Ending Work In Process (6,600 × 10%)                       =      660

Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs      = 36,840

Calculate the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month

Unit costs for materials = Total Cost for materials / Total equivalent units of production for materials

                                      = ( $20,600 +  $186,883) / 42,780

                                      = $4.85

Unit costs for conversion costs = Total Cost for conversion costs / Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs

                                      = ( $14,674  +  $127,600  + $257,440) /  36,840

                                      = $10.85

Total unit cost = $4.85 + $10.85

                        = $15.70

Calculate the costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.

Cost units transferred out = Number of Units Transferred out × Total Unit Cost

                                             = 36,180 × $15.70

                                             =  $568,026

Cost of Units In Process Calculation :

Material Cost ( 6,600 × $4.85)       = $32,010

Conversion Costs ( 660 × $10.85) =    $7,161

Total Cost of Units In Process       =  $39,171

Answers

Answer:

1. Several individuals operate the cash register using the same register drawer.  Weak Internal Control. Establishment of Responsibility Internal control violated.

Having many individuals have access to the cash register can lead to theft. Establishment of Responsibility is an internal control that calls for the minimal amount of people being able to do one task. This way issues can be traced faster.

2 .A monthly bank reconciliation is prepared by someone who has no other cash responsibilities.  Good Internal Control. Independent Internal Verification control followed.

Independent Verification occurs when a person who is an employee of a company but not related to a task, audits that task to find out if any irregularities are present. It ensures unbiased review.

3. Joe Cockrell writes checks and also records cash payment journal entries.  Weak Internal Control. Segregation of Duties Internal control violated.

Segregation of duty calls for the division of a job process into tasks that different people are to accomplish especially in relation to cash. It can help avoid fraud because people will not be able to approve payments for themselves which is what Joe Cockrell can do in this scenario. Joe can withdraw and decide not to record it.

4 .One individual orders inventory, while a different individual authorizes payments.  Good Internal Control. Segregation of Duties Internal control followed.

Segregation of duty calls for the division of a job process into tasks that different people are to accomplish especially in relation to cash. By having one individual order inventory and the other authorizing payments, fraud can be better avoided.

5 .Unnumbered sales invoices from credit sales are forwarded to the accounting department every four weeks for recording. Weak Internal Control. Documentation Procedures Internal control violated.

Documentation procedures in a company ensure that the paper trail is efficiently recorded so that transactions can be followed up speedily. By sending unnumbered sales invoices to the Accounting department as well as taking so long to do so, the company is running an inefficient documentation process that will make tracking transactions more difficult.

Answers

Answer: $20,000

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Investment in Subsidiary Co. = $95,000

Less: Net asset value = $71,400

Less: Balance sheet adjustment = $3,600

Goodwill = $95,000 - $71,400 - $3,600

= $20,000

Note that:

Net asset value = Asset with book value - Liability with book value

= $86,400 - $15,000

= $71,400

Balance sheet adjusted = Fair value of asset - book value of asset

= $90,000 - $86,400

= $3,600
