Answer:
The landlord is liable but not thomas
Explanation:
Even though Thomas rented the apartment to Donna, he is just the manager and not the owner of the apartment. There is a difference between the landlord and Thomas the property manager. The landlord actually owns the apartment or the building. Thomas on the other hand, only offers a third party service because he was hired by the owner of the apartment to handle the day to day operations of taking care of the building. The Landlord is therefore liable for this breach of contract as he is known to be the apartment owner.
Maria, the landlord, refuses to fix a small leak in the roof that was there prior to the current tenant. Juan, the current tenant, has just discovered the leak after a heavy rain. The consequence is that black mold has been forming in the attic for quite some time. Juan still has significant time remaining on his lease. Juan has notified Maria in writing of the mold and leak issue but has received no response. He is concerned about the premises becoming unsafe to live in. It has been 14 days since he emailed her his notification. What are all of Juan’s options if Maria declines to do the repairs? Please discuss all remedies Juan may seek. Please remember to reference the contract and text to support your analysis.
Answer:
Please see answers below
Explanation:
Joan may as well put a call through to Maria in addition to his previous mail. Several remedial options are available to Juan and each has its own merits and demerits. It is proper for the tenant to consider each options carefully and seek legal opinion where necessary. However, if Maria declines to do the repairs, Juan may seek the following remedies
• Repair and deduct remedy . In this type of remedy, a tenant may deduct money that is equivalent of a month's rent to cover the cost of the repair or defect. Rental unit 156 covers a condition whether faulty or substandard rented unit could affect the tenant's health and safety. Since the landlord has refused to do the repair, she is guilty of implied warranty of habitability which includes leak in the roof, gas leak, no running water etc. Also, the tenant may not have to file a lawsuit against the landlord since this type of remedy has legal aid. Other conditions attached in addition to the above are ; the repairs cannot cost more than a month's rent, the tenant cannot use the repair and deduct remedy more that twice in any 12 month period, tenant must have informed the landlord in writing and through calls of the faulty area that requires repair. His family or pets must not be the cause of the faulty area that needed to be repaired etc.
• The abandonment remedy . Here, the tenant could move out of the faulty unit or defective rental unit due to its substandard condition which could affect his health and safety. Where the tenant uses the abandonment remedy judiciously, he is not liable to pay any other rent once he has abandoned or moved out of the defective rental unit. The conditions attached are that; the defects must be serious and directly related to the tenant's health and safety, the tenant or his family must not be the cause of the faulty space that requires repair. Moreover, the tenant must have informed the landlord whether in writing or orally telephone calls of the defects that requires repair.
• The rent withholding remedy. Legally, a tenant could withhold house rent if the landlord fails to take care of serious defects that negates the implied warranty of habitability. Conditions attached to this type of remedy are; the defects to be repaired must have threatened the tenant's safety and wellbeing. Again, the faulty or defective unit must be such that it becomes uninhabitable for the tenant . The tenant, his family or pets must not be the cause of the defects that requires repairs. The tenant must have also notified the landlord either through phone calls on in writing, amongst others.
• The tenant could also file a lawsuit against the landlord to recover the cost expended to fixing the faulty repairs where the landlord was not willing to do so. Conditions that must be met before this option could stand in the court of law are; the rental unit has serious defect that is not safe for living. A housing inspector has inspected the house and found to be short of minimum requirements for habitable place etc. A tenant may seek this type of redress where the option for out of court settlement has failed with the landlord.

Indicate whether the following changes would cause a shift in the demand curve for Product A and, if so, the direction of the shift.
Change Demand curve shift? Direction of shift?
Increase in price of complementary product Yes or No Increase, decrease or N/A
Increase in the price of the Product A Yes or No Increase, decrease or N/A
Launch of effective advertising campaign for Product Yes or No Increase, decrease or N/A
Answer:
yes decrease
No N/A
Yes, Increase
Explanation:
A complementary good is a good that is consumed together. If the price of the complementary good increases, the quantity demanded of the good would decrease. this would lead to a decrease in demand for product A.
an increase in the price of product A, would increase the quantity demanded. an increase in quantity demanded leads to a movement along the demand curve and not a shift of the demand curve
An effective advertising campaign would increase the visibility of the product and increase the demand for the product. an increase in demand leads to an outward shift of the demand curve.
Assume that your roommate is very messy. According to campus policy, you have a right to live in an uncluttered apartment. Suppose she gets a $200 benefit from being messy but imposes a $100 cost on you. The Coase theorem would suggest that an efficient solution would be for your roommate to
Answer: b. pay you at least $100 but less than $200 to live with the clutter.
Explanation:
The options are:
a. stop her messy habits or else move out.
b. pay you at least $100 but less than $200 to live with the clutter.
c. continue to be messy and force you to move out.
d. demand payment of at least $100 but no more than $200 to clean up after herself.
According to the Coase theorem, if a party has the rights to a property, then an efficient output level will be achieved when there is some sort of bargaining between the parties that are involved.
Since the roommate gets a $200 benefit from being messy but imposes a $100 cost on me, an efficient solution would be for my roommate to pay me at least $100 but less than $200 to live with the clutter.

Explanation:
There is a zero coupon bond currently priced at $521.58. This bond has a par value of $1000 and matures in 9 years. What is the yield to maturity of this bond
Answer:
7.5%
Explanation:
The computation of yield to maturity is shown below:-
Let YTM be i%.
As we know that
Present Value = Face Value ÷ (1 + i)^n
$521.58 = $1,000 ÷ (1 + i)^9
(1 + i)^9 = 1.91725
1 + i = 1.075
i = 7.5%
Therefore for computing the yield to maturity we simply applied the above formula and for more clarification, we have attached the spreadsheet.

You decrease your product price by $10 in market A but leave it unchanged in market B. Sales in A rise from 840 units per week to 940 while sales in B also rise from 770 to 790. The difference-in-difference estimate of the effect of the price change is:
Answer:80 units.
Explanation:
Change in Sales of Market A =940units -840units = 100 units
Change in Sales of Market B= 790units -770 units = 20units.
Difference-in-difference estimate of the effect of the price change is = Change in sales of Market A - Change in sales of Market B = 100units -20 units = 80 units.

An Ethiopian company decides to launch some of its fashion accessories into the European market. Its marketing director is about to begin the process of creating a marketing plan for this new initiative. Which of the following is the first step the director should take before beginning to plan the marketing mix details?
A. First the director must define the company's target markets and understand which of its products fit with each market's businesses and consumers.
B. First the director needs to research, develop, and create various products to launch into the international market.
C. First the director must decide which promotional tactics to use in particular markets to launch products to consumers and businesses.
Answer:
A. First the director must define the company's target markets and understand which of its products fit with each market's businesses and consumers.
Explanation:
After taking the decision of entering the European Market, the Ethiopian company marketing director should first determine which of the company's products could be commercialized in Europe, and after, the marketing director should narrow the market even more: determining the target customer demographics of the European Market, for example: old people, young people, women, men, college-educated people, non-college educated people, northern Europeans, Southern Europeans, etc.
Assume that Kish Inc. hired you as a consultant to help estimate its cost of capital. You have obtained the following data: D 0 = $0.90; P 0 = $27.50; and g = 7.00% (constant). Based on the DCF approach, what is the cost of equity from retained earnings? 9.29% 9.68% 10.08% 10.50% 10.92%
Answer:
10.50%
Explanation:
According to the given situation, the solution of cost of equity from retained earning is shown below:-
Cost of equity = (D0 × (1 + g) ÷ P0) + g
Now we will put the values into the above formula.
= (0.90 × (1 + 0.07) ÷ 27.50) + 0.07
= 10.50%
Therefore for determining the cost of equity from retained earning we simply applied the above formula.
The city of New Orleans has 200 advertising companies, 199 of which employ designers of normal ability at a salary of $100,000 a year. The firms that employ designers of normal ability each collect $400,000 in revenue a year, which is just enough to ensure that each earns exactly a normal profit. However, the 200th company employs Janus Jacobs, an unusually talented designer. Because of Jacobs's talent, this company collects $1,000,000 in revenue a year.
Required:
a. How much will Jacobs earn?
b. What proportion of his annual salary will be economic rent?
c. Will the advertising company for which Jacobs works be able to earn an economic profit?
Answer:
a. $700,000
b. 6/7 or 85.7%
c. No they will not.
Explanation:
a. Jacobs will earn the normal salary that the other designers in the other companies are getting in addition to the incremental income he brings to the company as a result of his talents.
Incremental income = Revenue with Jacobs - Revenue without Jacobs
= 1,000,000 - 400,000
= $600,000
Jacobs earnings = Normal designer earnings + incremental income
= 100,000 + 600,000
= $700,000
b. Economic rent is the excess amount that the company is paying Jacobs over what it should normally cost to get a designer.
Normal cost of designer is $100,000. Company is therefore paying an economic rent of $600,000.
Proportion of Jacobs salary that is economic rent = [tex]\frac{Economic rent}{Jacobs annual earning}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{600,000}{700,000}[/tex]
= 6/7 or 85.7%
c. The company hiring Jacobs will not be making an economic profit because for them to make an economic profit they would have to be making more than the $400,000 that the other firms make. They cannot make this amount because for them to do so they would have to reduce the amount they pay Jacobs. If they do so, Jacobs would leave for greener pastures and then they would be making the same $400,000 that the rest are making.
First National Bank charges 14.1 percent compounded monthly on its business loans. First United Bank charges 14.4 percent compounded semiannually. Calculate the EAR for First National Bank and First United Bank. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) EAR First National % First United %
Answer:
For First National Bank = 15.05%
For first United bank = 14.92%
Explanation:
The computation of EAR for First National Bank and First United Bank is shown below:-
Effective annual rate EAR = (( 1 + i ÷ n)^n) - 1
as
I indicates the annual interest rate
n indicates the number of the compounding period
For First National Bank
Annual interest rate i = 14.1%
Effective annual rate EAR is
= ((1 + 0.141 ÷ 12)^12) - 1
= 1.1505 - 1
= 0.1505
or
= 15.05%
For first United bank
Effective annual rate EAR is
= (( 1+ 0.144 ÷ 2)^2) - 1
= 1.1492 -1
= 0.1492
or
= 14.92%
You are thinking of building a new machine that will save you $ 4 comma 000$4,000 in the first year. The machine will then begin to wear out so that the savings decline at a rate of 1 %1% per year forever. What is the present value of the savings if the interest rate is 9 %9% per year?
Answer:
The present value of the savings=$37,064.22
Explanation:
The present value of the savings is the amount that it worths today, this would be done in two stages;
The first stage is to determined the present of the first cash savings as follows:
PV of the first payment = 4,000 × (1.09)^(-1)=3,669.72
Second step is to determine the present value of the declining perpetuity
PV of declining perpetuity. A perpetuity is the series of cash flow occurring for the foreseeable future of years.
A- 4,000, g-negative growth rate = 1%,
interest rate = 9%
PV in year 1 = 4,000× (1-0.09)/(0.09+0.01)
= 36,400
PV in year 0 = 36,400 × (1.09)^(-1) = 33,394.49
The present value of the savings = 33,394.49 + 3,669.72= 37,064.22
The present value of the savings=$37,064.22
An investment earns 35% the first year, earns 40% the second year, and loses 37% the third year. The total compound return over the 3 years was ______. Multiple Choice 158.93% 19.07% 38.00% 6.36%
Answer:
19.07%
Explanation:
The computation of the total compound return over the 3 years is shown below:
= (1 + investment percentage earned in first year) × (1 + investment percentage earned in second year) × (1 + investment percentage loss in second year)
= (1 + 0.35) × (1 + 0.40) × (1 - 0.37)
= 1.35 × 1.40 × 0.63
= 1.1907
= 19.07%
How much are you willing to pay for one share of Jumbo Trout stock if the company just paid a $0.70 annual dividend, the dividends increase by 2.5 percent annually, and you require a 10 percent rate of return
Answer:
$9.57 per stock
Explanation:
using the dividend discount model to find the stock's current price (P₀):
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
Div₁ = $0.70 x 1.025 = $0.7175Re = 10%g = 2.5%P₀ = $0.7175/ (10% - 2.5%) = $0.7175/ 7.5% = $9.5667 ≈ $9.57 per stock

Answer:

Explanation:
Giving the following information:
In preparing the direct materials budget for Quan Company, management concludes that required purchases are 64,000 units. If 52,000 direct materials units are required in production and there are 9,000 units of beginning direct material.
To calculate the desired ending inventory, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
desired ending inventory= purchases - production + beginning inventory
desired ending inventory= 64,000 - 52,000 + 9,000
desired ending inventory= 21,000

You purchased 200 shares of ABC common stock on margin at $50 per share. Assume the initial margin is 50% and the maintenance margin is 30%. You will get a margin call if the stock drops below what price? (Assume the stock pays no dividends, and ignore interest on the margin loan.)
Answer:
Margin call will be obtained if the stock price drops below $35.71
Explanation:
Here in this question, we start by calculating the maintenance margin
Mathematically;
Maintenance margin = Equity/market value
From the question, maintenance margin= 30%
= 30/100 = 0.3
Let the unknown price be P.
Thus, the market value of the 200 shares at price P is 200p
Hence;
0.3 = (200 * p - purchased stock value * initial margin)/200p
0.3 * 200p = 200p - 200(0.5 * 50)/200p
0.3 * 200p = 200p - 5000
60p = 200p -5000
140p = 5000
p = 5000/140
p = $35.71

Dividend : Preference Stock $11,000 (debit)
Cash $9,000 (credit)
Shareholders for dividends $2,000 (credit)
Explanation:
Preference Stockholders have preference over Common Stockholders when it comes to payments of dividends.
That means preference dividends are paid first then the remainder belongs to the Common Stockholders.
If Preference Stocks are cumulative, dividends in arrears not paid in previous years are carried over to the next year and these have to be paid up before any distributions for that year are made.
Calculation of Stock Dividend
Stock Dividend gives a fixed dividend to Preference Stockholders every year.
Stock Dividend = ( $220,000 × 5%) = $11,000
2018
Preferred Stock Dividend Paid = $9,000
Preferred Stock Dividend in Arrears = $2,000
Common Stock Dividend = $0
2019
Preferred Stock Dividend Paid = ($2,000 - In-arrears + $11,000 - Current Year) = $13,000
Preferred Stock Dividend in Arrears = $0
Common Stock Dividend = ($45,000 - $13,000) = $32,000
