Answera dnd Explanation:
A. The incentive conflict in principal-agent relationship as it concerns venture capitalism is conflict between venture capitalists who are the principals and the managers of the business investment who are the agents. The conflict is that venture capitalists are put to increase value of their investment and make profit while salaried managers are only out to feel their pockets through their managerial role in the company as they do not have an interest in the company and are unaffected by the loss or failure of the company. This is known as the principal agent moral hazard issue in venture capitalism
B. By managers maintaining some ownership in the company, there us reduced conflict as managers now see a reason to make sure company succeeds since they have an interest
Venture capitalists aim to have a seat in the board to make sure managers do not take bad decisions since they are able to veto such decisions

Suppose someone offered to sell you a note calling for the payment of $1,000 15 months from today. They offer to sell it to you for $850. You have $850 in a bank time deposit which pays a 7% effective annual interest rate (compounding), and you plan to leave the money in the bank unless you buy the note. The note is not risky--you are sure it will be paid on schedule. Should you buy the note?
Check the decision in three ways:
a. By comparing your future value if you buy the note versus leaving your money in the bank.
b. By comparing the PV of the note with your current bank account.
c. By comparing the EFF% on the note with that of the bank account.
Answer:
1. The future value = 1000
Now we are to calculate the future value of bank savings
= 850x(1+0.07)^15/12
= 850x1.07^1.25
=$925.0147
So it is better to buy note.
2. Present value = 1000/(1.07^15/12)
= 1000/1.08825252622
= $918.9
For one to get same amount of money then savings would have to be increased. So we choose note
3. EAR = EFF%
= 1000/(850^12/15)-1
= 13.88%
We have EAR on bank as 7% and that of note as 13.88%. note is higher so we choose note

become aware of the various institutions depa and center present within the school environment or the immediate community
Answer:
This represents the involvement of parents in their children's education
Explanation:
When parents worry about getting to know the institutions related to the school environment that their children attend, they show an involvement in education, which is very beneficial both for the development of children and communities, as it allows the recognition of factors favorable to academic construction children, being able to supervise and provide important advice about these institutions, but also to work for the benefit of education.
Borges Machine Shop, Inc., has a 1-year contract for the production of gear housings for a new off-road vehicle. Owner Luis Borges hopes the contract will be extended and the volume increased next year. Borges has developed costs for three alternatives. They are general-purpose equipment (GPE), flexible manufacturing system (FMS), and expensive, but efficient, dedicated machine (DM). The cost data follow: General-Purpose Equipment (GPE) Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) Dedicated Machine (DM) Annual contracted units Annual fixed cost Per unit variable cost Based on the cost, the process that is best suited for the current contracted volume is __________.
Answer:
All the numbers are missing, so I looked for a similar question.
The contract includes the production of 225,000 gear housings during 1 year.
We are also given the estimated costs of each alternative. We must choose the alternative that minimizes our total costs.
total costs for general purpose equipment (GPE) = $125,000 + (225,000 x $15) = $3,500,000total costs for flexible manufacturing system (FMS) = $200,000 + (225,000 x $14.50) = $3,462,500total costs for dedicated machine (DM) = $525,000 + (225,000 x $13.50) = $3,562,500For the current volume, the best option is flexible manufacturing system with a total cost of $3,462,500.
As total volume increases, the DM option becomes more attractive, but in order for it to cost less than FMS, total output should be higher than 325,000 units per year.
525,000 + 13.5x = 200,000 + 14.5x
x = 325,000 units
GPE is only attractive when the total units are lower (below 150,000 units per year):
125,000 + 15x = 200,000 + 14.5x
0.5x = 75,000
x = 150,000

Flint Hills, Inc. has prepared a year-end 2021 trial balance. Certain accounts in the trial balance do not reflect all activities that have occurred. The Supplies account shows a balance of $820, but a count of supplies reveals only $350 on hand. Flint Hills initially records the payments of all insurance premiums as expenses. The trial balance shows a balance of $560 in Insurance expense. A review of insurance policies reveals that $195 of insurance is unexpired. Flint Hills employees work Monday through Friday, and salaries of $3,800 per week are paid each Friday. Flint Hills' year-end falls on Tuesday. On December 31, 2021, Flint Hills received a utility bill for December electricity usage of $330 that will be paid in early January of 2022.

Two important industries on the island of Bermuda are fishing and tourism. According to data from the World Resources Institute and the Bermuda Department of Statistics, in the year 2000 the 307 registered fishermen in Bermuda caught 286 metric tons of marine fish. And the 3,409 people employed by hotels produced 538,000 hotel stays (measured by the number of visitor arrivals). Suppose that this production point is efficient in production. Assume also that the opportunity cost of one additional metric ton of fish is 2,000 hotel stays and that this opportunity cost is constant (the opportunity cost does not change).
a. If all 307 registered fishermen were to be employed by hotels (in addition to the 3,409 people already working in hotels), how many hotel stays could Bermuda produce?
b. If all 3,409 hotel employees were to become fishermen (in addition to the 307 fishermen already working in the fishing industry), how many metric tons of fish could Bermuda produce?
c. Draw a production possibility frontier for Bermuda, with fish on the horizontal axis and hotel stays on the vcrtical axis, and label Bermuda’s actual production point for the year 2000.
Answer:
a. If all 307 registered fishermen were to be employed by hotels (in addition to the 3,409 people already working in hotels), how many hotel stays could Bermuda produce?
since the opportunity cost is constant, then if all 307 fishermen decided to become hotel workers, then the total number of hotel stays would be (286 tons of fish x 2,000 stays per ton) + 538,000 stays = 1,110,000 stays
b. If all 3,409 hotel employees were to become fishermen (in addition to the 307 fishermen already working in the fishing industry), how many metric tons of fish could Bermuda produce?
total number of fish caught = (538,000 stays / 2,000 tons per stay) + 286 tons of fish = 555 tons of fish caught

As of May 2011, the risk free rate is 4.0 percent, the market risk premium is 6%, the analyst is forecasting for Oracle to have EPS of $2.17 per share and P/E ratio to be 20, for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2012. The company is expected to pay $0.24 in dividends per share for the fiscal year.
The equity cost of capital for Oracle is:__________The value per share of equity for Oracle in May 2011 is:________
Answer:
Cost of equity = 11.20%, Value of Equity = $39.25
Explanation:
a. Cost of equity = Rf + B(Rm-Rf)
Cost of equity = 4% + 1.2(6%)
Cost of equity = 4% + 7.20%
Cost of equity = 11.20%
b. P/E ratio = 20
Market Price / EPS = 20
Market Price = EPS * 20
-->P1 = $2.17 * 20 = $43.40
DPS1= $0.24
Value of Equity = P1/Cost of Equity + DPS1/Cost of equity
Value of Equity = $43.40/1.1120 + $0.24/1.1120
Value of Equity = $39.03 + $0.22
Value of Equity = $39.25

Kirk, Spock and Bones were partners in a company that sold TV memorabilia, aptly named Memorabilia Partnership. The memorabilia business was not as popular as it had once been, so Kirk decided to withdraw from the partnership and duly notified the other members. Memorabilia Partnership was an at-will partnership and the members agreed to dissolve the partnership and parted amicably. They posted a notice in the local newspaper of the dissolution of Memorabilia Partnership. Ed decided that he would like to host a Star Trek convention. Part of Ed’s idea was to put a piece of TV memorabilia in the hands of the first 500 people at the convention. Ed had, in the past, conducted business with Memorabilia Partnership several times to buy memorabilia for special events. Ed did not see the newspaper notice and was not informed of the dissolution of Memorabilia Partnership. Ed approached Kirk to make a deal. Ed placed an order, gave a substantial down payment to Kirk, and received a receipt on Memorabilia Partnership stationery from him. Kirk left the country with the down payment. Spock and Bones, the other former members of Memorabilia Partnership, failed to honor the contract. Ed sued the other former members of Memorabilia Partnership. Discuss Spock and Bone’s potential liability.
Answer:
In this case, Spock and Bone's potential liability is nothing and they cannot be held responsible for non honoring of contract of Memorabilia Partnership with Ed. This is because, Memorabilia Partnership was dissolved and Spock and Bone's cannot be held responsible for Kirk's actions. Since Kirk fled the country with down payment money, hence he is liable for suitable punishment and fine but since Spock and Bones were not involved in this crime, hence they cannot be held liable for anything.

Broomhilda manufactures broomsticks for her fellow witch (and wizard) friends. Broomhilda uses a job order cost system and applies overhead to production on the basis of direct labor cost. On September 1, Job 50 (a super deluxe broom complete with a separate sleep space and shower area as well as an espresso machine) was the only job in process. The costs incurred prior to September on this job were as follows: direct materials $20,000, direct labor $12,000, and manufacturing overhead $16,000. As of September 1, Job 49 (a broom shaped like a cat with some extra cargo space for all the cats) had been completed at a cost of $90,000 and was part of finished goods inventory. There was a $15,000 balance in the Raw Materials Inventory account. During the month of September, Broomhilda began production on Jobs 51 and 52, and completed Jobs 50 and 51. Jobs 49 and 50 were also sold on account during the month for $122,000 and $158,000, respectively. The following additional events occurred during the month.

A retail store manager instructed two new sales associates to greet customers quickly when they enter the store.On the first day the sales associates are working on the selling floor,one sales associate greets customers immediately after they enter the store,while the other associate greets customers after they have looked around for a minute or two.Which of the following risks incurred by describing services in words alone has led to the sales associates greeting customers at different time intervals?
A) Overcautious
B) Ostentation
C) Objectivity
D) Biased interpretation
E) Transformation
Answer:
D) Biased interpretation
Explanation:
The risk that is most likely the cause of this would be Biased Interpretation. This is basically when an individual takes a very random or common and takes it as being either negative or positive. This is most likely causing the sales associates to greet the customers at different intervals as they see opportunities differently. Some sales associates may see an opportunity of greeting a customer as negative while another may see it as positive. Therefore, only the one that sees it as positive will greet the customer, while the other will wait for another opportunity.
What is the difference between ordinal utility and cardinalutility?
Ordinal utility refers to
A. satisfaction when consumers are , while cardinal utility is satisfaction when consumers are .
B. a ranking of market baskets based on , while cardinal utility is a ranking of market baskets based on .
C. a ranking where the intensity of preferences is quantified, while cardinal utility is a number that by itself has no meaning.
D. an interpersonal comparison of satisfaction, while cardinal utility is a ranking of market baskets using arbitrary numerical values.
E. a ranking of market baskets in order of most to least preferred, while cardinal utility indicates how much one market basket is preferred to another.
Answer:
E. a ranking of market baskets in order of most to least preferred, while cardinal utility indicates how much one market basket is preferred to another.
Explanation:
Ordinal utility can be defined as an economic concept in which the consumer chooses a product or service from the market based on preferences in relation to another at a comparative level, but not exactly quantified.
In cardinal utility, on the other hand, the consumer is able to quantify the benefits perceived in a product or service with specific values, and this measure is beneficial to specify, for example, a choice based on price and utility for the consumer, which helps in the purchase decision process .

Assets, costs, and current liabilities are proportional to sales. Long-term debt and equity are not. The company maintains a constant 50 percent dividend payout ratio. As with every other firm in its industry, next year's sales are projected to increase by exactly 25 percent.
Required:
What is the external financing needed? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
EFN = needed new long-term debt and/or external equity
Answer: $1,448.75
Explanation:
Sales are to increase by 25% along with Assets, costs and current liabilities.
Sales (3,700 * 1.25) $4,625
Less: Costs ( 1,800 * 1.25) $2,250
Taxable Income $2,375
Tax (2,375 * 34%) $807.50
Net Income $1,567.50
Addition to retained earnings = Net Income - Dividends
= 1,567.50 - ( 1,567.50 * 50%)
= $783.75
Equity = 5,430 + 783.75 = $6,213.75
Assets = 9,900 * 1.25 = $12,375
Total Liability = Long term debt + Current liability
= 3,500 + (970 * 1.25)
= $4,712.50
Assets = Liability + Equity
12,375 ≠ 4,712.50 + 6,213.75
External financing needed = 12,375 - 4,712.50 - 6,213.75
= $1,448.75
An assisted-living facility provides services in the form of residential space, meals, and other occupant assistance (OOA) to its occupants. The facility currently uses a traditional cost accounting system that charges each occupant a daily rate equal to the facility’s annual cost of providing residential space, meals, and OOA divided by total occupant days. However, an activity-based costing (ABC) analysis has revealed that occupants’ use of OOA varies substantially. This analysis determined that occupants could be grouped into three categories (low, moderate, and high usage of OOA) and that the activity driver of OOA should be nursing hours. The driver of the residential space and meals is occupant days. The following quantitative information was also provided: Annual Annual Occupant Category Occupant Days Nursing Hours Low usage 36,000 90,000 Medium usage 18,000 90,000 High usage 6,000 120,000 60,000 300,000 The total annual cost of OOA was $7.5 million, and the total annual cost of providing residential space and meals was $7.2 million. Accordingly, the ABC analysis indicates that the daily costing rate for providing residential space, meals, and OOA should be:__________
Answer:
total cost for:
low usage category = $6,570,000medium usage category = $4,410,000high usage category = $3,720,000Explanation:
occupant category annual occupant days annual nursing hours
Low usage 36,000 90,000
Medium usage 18,000 90,000
High usage 6,000 120,000
Total 60,000 300,000
using ABC costing, the rate per occupant day = $7,200,000 / 60,000 = $120 per day
using ABC costing, the rate per nursing hour = $7,500,000 / 300,000 = $25 per nursing hour
total cost for:
low usage category = (36,000 x $120) + (90,000 x $25) = $6,570,000
medium usage category = (18,000 x $120) + (90,000 x $25) = $4,410,000
high usage category = (6,000 x $120) + (120,000 x $25) = $3,720,000
Bintu has a comparative advantage in the production of:______.
a. bowls and Juba has a comparative advantage in the production of cups.
b. cups and Juba has a comparative advantage in the production of bowls.
c. both goods and Juba has a comparative advantage in the production of neither good.
d. neither good and Juba has a comparative advantage in the production of both goods.
Answer:
b. cups and Juba has a comparative advantage in the production of bowls.
Explanation:
A company or country could said to have a comparative advantage if t produces a good or service with the lowest possible opportunity costs.
Bintu's opportunity cost of 1 unit of Bowls.
Bintu can produce 2 Bowls or 8 cups.
Therefore; 2 Bowls = 8 cups
We need to make it 1 Bowl, so we divide both sides by 2.
2 Bowls / 2 = 1 Bowl
8 cups / 2 = 4 cups
Hence, 1 bowl = 4 cups
Juba's opportunity cost of 1 unit of Bowls.
Juba can produce 4 Bowls or 6 cups.
Therefore; 4 Bowls = 6 cups
We need to make it 1 Bowl, so we divide both sides by 4.
4 Bowls / 4 = 1 Bowl
6 cups / 4 = 1.5 cups
Hence, 1 bowl = 1.5 cups
We now need to calculate the opportunity cost of 1 unit of cups from Bintu and Juba. This is just the same process as before, but with 1 unit of cup instead.
Bintus's opportunity cost of 1 unit of cups
Bintu can produce 8cups or 2 bowl.
Therefore, 8 cups = 2 bowls.
We need to make it 1 cup, so we divide both sides by 8.
8 cups / 8 = 1 cup
2 bowls /8 = 0.25 bowls.
Hence, 1 cup - 0.25 bowls
Juba's opportunity cost of 1 unit of cups.
Juba can produce 6 cups or 4 bowls.
Therefore, 6 cups = 4 bowls.
We need to make it 1 cup, so we divide both sides by 6.
6 cups /6 = 1 cup
4 bowls / 6 =0.67 bowl
Hence, 1 cup = 0.67 bowl
Now comparative advantage is when either of these two can produce a good with the lowest possible opportunity cost.
From the calculation above, the opportunity cost for bowl is 4 in Bintu and 1.5 in Juba. So since Juba has the lowest opportunity cost for bowls, it, therefore, Juba has a comparative advantage in the production of bowls. In the same way, since cost for Cups in Bintu is 0.25 and that of Juba is 0.67, then Bintu has a comparative advantage in the production of cups
Morgan (age 45) is single and provides more than 50% of the support of Tammy (a family friend), Jen (a niece, age 18), and Jerold (a nephew, age 18). Both Tammy and Jen live with Morgan, but Jerold (a French citizen) lives in Canada. Morgan earns a salary of $95,000, contributes $5,000 to a traditional IRA, and receives sales proceeds of $15,000 for an RV that cost $60,000 and was used for vacations. She has $8,200 in itemized deductions.
A. Morgan's taxable income is $____.
B. Using the Tax Rate Schedules (click here), tax liability for Morgan is $____for 2019.
C. Compute Morgan's dependent tax credit.
Answer:
RV is a personal asset, no loss on sale of personal asset is deductible and Morgan is eligible for filling as Head of Household
a. Morgan's Taxable Income
Salary $95,000
IRA Deduction $5,000
AGI $90,000
Greater of standard and itemized deduction $18,350
Taxable Income $71,650
b. Tax Liability for Morgan
= $6,065 + ($71,650 - $52,850)*22%
= $6,065 + ($18,800)*22%
= $6,065 + $4,136
= $10,201
Tax Liability for Morgan is $10,201 for 2019
c. Only 2 out of 3 dependent quality for Dependent Credit, therefore, Morgan's dependent tax credit = $500 * 2 = $1,000
One approach to understanding corruption perceptions is to compare information across a variety of countries. Your company has had operations in South America for some time. However, there has not been an internal evaluation of perceived regional corruption to date. Therefore, you have been asked to provide insight on this topic for each country in South America. Based on an annual corruption perceptions index, develop a brief report and recommendations for the entire company.
Explanation:
A major problem in investing in the countries of South America are the problems arising from corruption, political instability and bureaucratization.
There are also many positive points that make large companies operate in such countries, such as Brazil, for example, which is a large country with enormous potential for consumption and also local and government incentives for setting international companies in the country.
However, it is essential that companies operate in these countries having knowledge of the real local situation in terms of the main problems occurring in the country, such as corruption, which can lead to significant problems for the company's business.
It is important, therefore, that there is an accurate internal control over the businesses and the corruption-related indexes and an active and regular monitoring of data essential to the business.
It is also important to have policies and an internal culture aimed at maintaining ethical values, so that the company is supported by positive and ethical values that will lead to a good positioning in the market.
Bank's Balance Sheet
Assets Liabilities and Owners' Equity
Reserves $175 Deposits $1,400
Loans $700 Debt $225
Securities $875 Capital (owners' equity) $125
Suppose the owners of the bank contribute an additional $200 from their own funds and use it to buy securities in the name of the bank. This would increase the securities account andincrease thedebt account. This would also bring the leverage ratio from its initial value of14.00 to a new value of . Which of the following do bankers take into account when determining how to allocate their assets?
A. The return on each asset
B. The total value of liabilities
C. The size of the monetary base
Answer:
1. increase securities , increase owners equity
2. Leverage ratio is 5.2
3. A. The return on each asset
Explanation:
1. If the bank owner decide to imcrease assets by buying new securities through additional funds from them, then securities assets increases by $200 and owners equity increases by $ 200 to balance the balance sheet
2. Leverage ratio= total assets divided by owners equity
= 1950/375= 5.2 ( owners equity increases by $200 to make $375)
3. Banks consider return on assets to allocate asset resources because they weigh risk and return and allocate to resources on the basis of greatest optimal risk return combination
1. The investment of an additional $200 by the owners of the bank and the purchase of securities in the name of the bank would increase the securities account and increase the Capital account by $200, respectively.
2. This additional investment would also bring the leverage ratio from its initial value of 14.00 ($1,750/$125) to a new value of 6.00 ($1,950/$325).
What is the bank's leverage ratio?The leverage ratio is computed as the ratio of the total assets to the equity capital.
Thus, the old leverage ratio is 14 ($1,750/$125) just as the new leverage ratio is 6 ($1,950/$325).
3. The factor that bankers take into account when determining how to allocate their assets is A. The return on each asset.
What is the return on assets?The return on assets is a financial measure indicating the profitability of an asset relative to other assets.

Answer:
For a person whose income is $90,000, the tax liability is $9,000 and the marginal tax rate is 30%.
Explanation:
total tax liability for someone earning $90,000:
$20,000 x 10% = $2,000
$40,000 x 20% = $8,000
$30,000 x 30% = $9,000
total tax liability = $19,000
A taxpayer's marginal tax rate, refers to the rate at which every additional dollar of income will be taxed.

The EZ Lawn Corporation manufactures lawn equipment such as lawn mowers, blowers, and trimmers. The lawn equipment is assembled in the U.S. at a facility in Florida, but the firm outsources inputs from a number of countries, each with varying degrees of economic stability. Given the importance of the firm's sourcing activities, EZ Lawn managers are discussing methods which might reduce the currency risk faced by EZ Lawn. Which of the following would most likely minimize the currency risk of EZ Lawn?
a. Concentrate all of the EZ Lawn outsourcing to one or two neighboring nations.
b. Re-locate a team of EZ Lawn managers overseas to stay abreast of currency changes.
c. List EZ Lawn stock on foreign stock exchanges to offset any currency losses.
d. Assign an EZ Lawn manager the task of monitoring currency fluctuations.
Answer:
c. List EZ Lawn stock on foreign stock exchanges to offset any currency losses.
Many foreign companies do this and list their stocks as ADRs in the US, so this is a method that actually works. The problem is that will listing American stocks in foreign markets help? Probably you could list some stocks in European, Japanese or even Canadian markets. But most foreign exchange markets pose a higher risk than a currency exchange risk.
Explanation:
Currency risk refers to the possibility that a company that engages in international trade losses money due to variations in the exchange rate between their domestic currency and a foreign currency. The best way to protect a company are currency hedged funds that trade currency exchange futures, but this option isn't included in the list.
a. Concentrate all of the EZ Lawn outsourcing to one or two neighboring nations. ⇒ This will increase the risk since it is similar to investing all your money in one single stock, it can be great or it can be a disaster.
b. Re-locate a team of EZ Lawn managers overseas to stay abreast of currency changes. ⇒ You can do this from anywhere in the world, you do not need to relocate someone.
d. Assign an EZ Lawn manager the task of monitoring currency fluctuations. ⇒ Similar to option B, it just takes a few seconds to do it and anyone can do it. It is something so basic that every company should do it. It is like telling someone that they shouldn't forget to keep breathing. It can help you deal with currency fluctuations, but it doesn't protect you from them.
