Answer:
A secondary market transaction
Explanation:
Secondary market transaction: In this transaction, the transaction which is already issued to the public are sold by another investors.
In this type market, the investors buy and sell securities which are theirs . It is what most people typically think of as the "stock market," though stocks are also sold on the primary market when they are first issued.
So in the question, the transfer was made through a broker which implies it deals in the secondary market.
Primary market transaction: In this transaction, the company directly sells the new stocks, bonds, etc to the public for the first time.
Future market transaction: This is the transaction which occurs in the near future to buy some specific quantities at the future price.
A company is considering the purchase of new equipment for $57,000. The projected annual net cash flows are $23,400. The machine has a useful life of 3 years and no salvage value. Management of the company requires a 8% return on investment. The present value of an annuity of 1 for various periods follows:
Periods Present value of an annuity of 1 at 12%
1 0.8929
2 1.6901
3 2.4018
What is the net present value of this machine assuming all cash flows occur at year-end?
a. $30,000
b. $4,500
c. $(4,736)
d. $34,500
e. $82,862
Answer:
Net Present Value = $3,304.069
Explanation:
To determine whether or not the investment was right, we will need to determine the net present value of the investment (NPV).
The NPV is the difference between the present value PV of cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. A positive NPV implies a good investment decision and a negative figure implies the opposite.
NPV of an investment(NPV)
NPV = PV of Cash inflows - PV of cash outflow
The cash inflow is an annuity.
PV of annuity= A× 1 -(1+r)^(-n)/r
A- Annual cash flow ,- 23,400 r - discount rate - 8%, number of years- 3
Present Value of cash inflow =23,400 × (1- (1.08)^(-3)/0.08 = 60,304.06
Initial cost = 57,000
Net Present Value = 60,304.06 - 57,000 = 3,304.069
Net Present Value = $3,304.069
Kindly note that a discount rate of 8% was used as it is the opportunity cost of capital for the investment.
Prepare journal entries to record the following four separate issuances of stock.
1. A corporation issued 8,000 shares of $20 par value common stock for $192,000 cash.
2. A corporation issued 4,000 shares of no-par common stock to its promoters in exchange for their efforts, estimated to be worth $33,000. The stock has a $1 per share stated value.
3. A corporation issued 4,000 shares of no-par common stock to its promoters in exchange for their efforts, estimated to be worth $33,000. The stock has no stated value.
4. A corporation issued 2,000 shares of $75 par value preferred stock for $183,000 cash.
Answer:
1.
DR Cash $192,000
CR Common stock. $160,000
CR Paid-in capital in excess of par value - Common stock $32,000
Working
Common Stock = $20 * 8,000
= $160,000
Paid-in capital in excess of par value - Common stock = 192,000 - 160,000
= $32,000
2
DR Organization expenses $33,000
CR Common stock, $4,000
CR Paid-in capital in excess of stated value - common stock $29,000
Working
Common Stock = 1 * 4,000
= $4,000
Paid-in capital in excess of stated value, common stock = 33,000 - 4,000
= $29,000
3
DR Organization expenses $33,000
CR Common stock $33,000
4
DR Cash $183,000
CR Preferred stock $150,000
CR Paid-in capital in excess of par value - preferred stock $33,000
Working
Preferred Stock = 75 * 2,000
= $150,000
Paid-in capital in excess of par value - preferred stock = 183,000 - 150,000
= $33,000
On January 1, 20X6, Pumpkin Corporation acquired 70 percent of Spice Company's common stock for $210,000 cash. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest at that date was determined to be $90,000. Data from the balance sheets of the two companies included the following amounts as of the date of acquisition:______.
Pumpkin Spice Cash 50,000 15,000 Accounts Receivable 70,000 25,000 Inventory 30,000 20,000 Land 150,000 80,000 Buildings and Equipment 250,000 200,000 Less: Accumulated Depreciation -70,000 -20,000 Investment in Spice Co. 210,000 Total Assets 690,000 320,000 Accounts Payable 40,000 10,000 Bonds Payable 150,000 40,000 Common Stock 300,000 90,000 Retained Earnings 200,000 180,000 Total Liabilities and Equity 690,000 320,000 At the date of the business combination, the book values of Spice's assets and liabilities approximated fair value except for inventory, which had a fair value of $30,000, and land, which had a fair value of $95,000. 1. what amount of total inventory will be reported in the consolidated balance sheet prepared immediately after the business combination?
Answer:
Total inventory in consolidated balance = $60,000
Explanation:
In the consolidated balance sheet, we record the sum of both parent and subsidiary assets. Here pumpkin and spice both have an inventory of $30,000.
Total inventory in consolidated balance = Pimpkin's Inventory + fair value of Spice's inventory
Total inventory in consolidated balance = $30,000 + $30,000
Total inventory in consolidated balance = $60,000

When the price of erasers increases from $1.50 to $2.50, the quantity demanded of pencils is unchanged. The cross-price elasticity of demand between erasers and pencils is
Answer:
The cross elasticity of demand is zero
Explanation:
Cross elasticity of demand measures the percentage change in the quantity demand of a product occasioned by a change in the price of another but related commodity.
If the the commodities are complements, the cross of elasticity of demand between them would be negative. his implies an increase(decrease) in the price of one would lead to a decrease(increase) in the demand of the other.
If the the commodities are substitutes, the cross elasticity of demand between them would be positive. This implies an increase(decrease) in the price of one would lead to a increase (decrease) in the quantity demand of the other.
Where the cross elasticity of demand is zero, this implies that the goods are not in any way related. This implies that a change in the price of one would produce no change in the quantity demand of the other.
Flapjack Corporation had 7,600 actual direct labor hours at an actual rate of $12.41 per hour. Original production had been budgeted for 1,100 units, but only 950 units were actually produced. Labor standards were 7.0 hours per completed unit at a standard rate of $13.00 per hour. The direct labor time variance is
Answer:
-$12,350 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of direct labor variance is shown below:
Labor time variance = (Standard hours - Actual hours) × standard rate
= (950 × 7.0 - 7,600) × $13
= (6,650 - 7,600) × $13
= -950 × $13
= -$12,350 Unfavorable
Therefore for computing the direct labor variance we simply applied the above formula by considering the given information
What is the current yield for a Bond with a $1,000 par value bond, a 3% annual coupon rate that matures in 5 years, if the opportunity cost is 7%
Answer:
$836
Explanation:
market interest rate = 7%
in order to determine the current price of the bond we must add the present value of face value + coupon payments:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 7%)⁵ = $712.99
PV of coupon payments = $30 x 4.1002 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 5 periods) = $123.01
current market price = $712.99 + $123.01 = $836
An electric power plant uses solid waste for fuel in the production of electricity. the cost Y in dollars per hour to produce electricity is Y=11+0.4X+0.29X2, where X is in megawatts. Revenue in dollars per hour from the sale of electricity is 16X−0.2X2. Find the value of X that gives maximum profit. (Round to two decimal places.)
Answer:
The value of X that gives maximum profit is 15.92.
Explanation:
Before answering the question, Y and Revenue (R) given in the question are first correctly restated as follows:
Cost = Y = 11 + 0.4X + 0.29X^2 .......................................... (1)
Revenue = R = 16X − 0.2X^2 .............................................. (2)
Differentiating each of equations (1) and (2) with respect to X to obtain marginal cost (MC) and marginal revenue (MR), we have:
dY/dX = MC = 0.4 + 0.58X .................................................. (4)
dR/dX = MR = 16 - 0.4X ....................................................... (5)
In production theory, profit is maximized when MR = MC. Therefore, we equate equations (4) and (5) and solve for X as follows:
0.4 + 0.58X = 16 - 0.4X
0.58X + 0.4X = 16 - 0.4
0.98X = 15.6
X = 15.6 / 0.98
X = 15.92
Therefore, the value of X that gives maximum profit is 15.92.
Suppose that a perfectly competitive firm faces a market price of $7 per unit, and at this price the upward-sloping portion of the firm's marginal cost curve crosses its marginal revenue curve at an output level of 1 comma 400 units. If the firm produces 1 comma 400 units, its average variable costs equal $6.50 per unit, and its average fixed costs equal $0.80 per unit.
Required:
a. What is the firm's maximizing (or loss-minimizing output level?
b. What is the amount of it's economic profits (or losses) at this output level?
Answer:
1. This firm have the profit maximizing output level of 1400 units because a firm in any industry will maximize profit where MR=MC. Here MR is equal to MC at the output level of 1400. So profit maximizing level of output is 1400 units.
2. Economic profit = Total revenue - total cost.
Where, Total revenue = Quantity * price
= 1400 * 7
= $9,800
Total variable cost = AVC * quantity
= 6.50 *1400
= $9,100
Total fixed cost = AFC * quantity
= 0.80 * 1400
= $1,120
Economic profit = Total revenue - Total variable cost - Total fixed cost
Economic profit = $9,800 - $9,100 - $1,120
Economic profit = -$420
. The firm is having economic loss equal to 420.
Conclusion: This firm is facing economic loss in its output.

The Walthers Company has a semi-annual coupon bond outstanding. An increase in the market rate of interest will have which one of the following effects on this bond?
a. increase the coupon rate.
b. decrease the coupon rate.
c. increase the market price.
d. decrease the market price.
e. increase the time period.
Answer:
The answer is D.
Explanation:
An increase in the market rate of interest of a bond will decrease the market price of the bond. Market rate of interest of a bond is inversely related to the market price of the bond.
For example, A bonds is issued with a higher interest rate, the price of existing bonds will fall because the demand for this bond falls.

The structural unemployment rate is 1.7 percent, the frictional unemployment rate is 2.6 percent, and the economy's current unemployment rate is 3.9 percent. The economy is in:_______.
a. long-run equilibrium.
b. a recessionary gap producing more than Natural Real GDP.
c. a recessionary gap producing less than Natural Real GDP.
d. an inflationary gap producing Natural Real GDP.
e. an inflationary gap producing more than Natural Real GDP.
Answer:
a. long-run equilibrium.
Explanation:
In the circumstances that the structural unemployment rate is 1.7 percent, the frictional unemployment rate is 2.6 percent, and the economy's current unemployment rate is 3.9 percent. Then we can say that the economy is in a long-run equilibrium.
Structural unemployment can be defined as an involuntary unemployment that arises as a result of the incompatibility between a worker's skills set and requisite skills an employer seeks from the workers or due to technological changes.
Frictional unemployment is a form of unemployment which is voluntary because employees which to change jobs or move to another better job.
Hence, the economy is in a long-run equilibrium because the rate of unemployment has become constant, thus, prices and wages will be adjusted in order to reach wages equilibrium level.
A fund earned a net investment income (i.e. Ending Balance Starting Balance + Deposits/Withdrawals)) of 9200 during 1999. The beginning and ending balances of the fund were 100000 and 129200, respectively. A deposit was made at time K during the year. No other deposits or withdraws were made. The fund earned 8% in 1999 using the dollar-weighted method. Determine then date corresponding to time K
(a) April 1 (b) May 1 (c) July 1 (d) Sept. 1 (e) Oct. 1
Answer:________
Answer:
k = April 1 ( A )
Explanation:
Given data :
net investment income : $9200
Beginning balance = $100000
ending balance = $129200
deposit made
no withdrawals
interest earned = 8%
net investment ( $9200) = [ending balance - (starting balance + deposits/withdrawals )]
9200 = 129200 - 100000 - deposits
deposit = 129200 -100000 - 9200 = 20000
8% interest was earned on starting balance
= 8% of $100000 = $8000
interest earned on the deposit made = net income - interest earned on beginning balance = 9200 - 8000 = $1200
using the dollar-weighted method
assuming the deposit was made for Y months
interest earned on deposit = deposit * interest rate * (y/12)
1200 = 20000 * 8% * ( y /12 )
hence ( y/12) = 0.75 hence y = 9 months from December 31
which makes K = April 1
Cost reduction is still the number one priority for many supply chain executives, according to the MHI and Deloitte survey. Select one: True False
Answer:
MHI and Deloitte Survey
Cost Reduction #1 Priority
True
Explanation:
For supply chain companies to achieve their profit targets, they need to curtail costs. Consumers are not ready to absorb much costs as they are presented with low-priced alternatives. The competition for customers among supply chain organizations is very high. Everyone competes for the dollar the consumer is willing to spend on goods. With property and advertising costs skyrocketing, careful management of the cost structure is required.
produces sports socks. The company has fixed expenses of $ 80 comma 000 and variable expenses of $ 0.80 per package. Each package sells for $ 1.60. Read the requirementsLOADING.... Requirement 1. Compute the contribution margin per package and the contribution margin ratio. Begin by identifying the formula to compute the contribution margin per package. Then compute the contribution margin per package. (Enter the amount to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Unitary variable expenses= $ 0.80
Selling price per unit= $ 1.60
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost
Unitary contribution margin= 1.6 - 0.8
Unitary contribution margin= $0.8
Now, the contribution margin ratio:
contribution margin ratio= contribution margin / sellig price
contribution margin ratio= 0.8/1.6
contribution margin ratio= 0.5
In your opinion, can exchange rate volatility be managed? Why or why not? Explain your answer.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
What I think about exchange rate volatility is that investors have to learn to manage this volatility because it is part of the stock market on a daily basis. Indeed, it is the nature of the game. Managing foreign exchange or FX, as it is also known, is of the utmost importance in this globalized world of investments. The price of goods and products that are exported such as iron, steel, or any other commodity has been very volatile in recent years, that is why investors and countries have to hire experts to manage their operations. One of the resources that can help investors regarding this issue is to mitigate the uncertainty with futures or currency forwards.
If you put up $39,000 today in exchange for a 6.5 percent, 16-year annuity, what will the annual cash flow be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
$3,992.73
Explanation:
For computing the annual cash flow we need to apply the PMT formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below:
Given that,
Present value = $39,000
Future value or Face value = $0
RATE = 6.5%
NPER = 16 years
The formula is shown below:
= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula, the annual cash flow is $3,992.73
Carly Corporation issued $200,000 of 30-year, 8% bonds at 106 on January 1, 2016. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30th and December 31st. The straight-line method of amortization is to be used. After 11 years, what is the carrying value of the bonds?
Answer:
$207,600
Explanation:
The journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds:
January 1, 2016
Dr Cash 212,000
Cr Bonds payable 200,000
Cr Premium on bonds payable 12,000
Premium on bonds payable $12,000 / 60 semiannual coupons = $200 amortization per coupon payment
after 11 years, 22 coupons were paid 22 x $200 = $4,400
bonds carrying value after 11 years = $200,000 + $12,000 - $4,400 = $207,600
Inflation is a general rise in the level of prices experienced by people in a nation.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
Inflation is an economic term that can be defined as the increase in the prices of a product on the market in a given period.
It can occur due to several factors, when there is an imbalance between supply and demand, then it is correct to say that when the demand for a product is greater than the supply, there will be an increase in prices and, consequently, inflation.
It can also occur when there are situations of monopoly, which is the pricing of a product controlled by a company.
Another factor that causes inflation is the increase in a company's production costs, which can be caused by factors such as scarcity, or economic crisis.
Uncontrolled inflation has a negative impact on the consumer's life, which starts to lose its purchasing capacity and has its quality of life reduced.
If an investment center has a $90,000 controllable margin and $1,200,000 of sales, what average operating assets are needed to have a return on investment of 10%
Answer:
Average operating assets is $900,000
Explanation:
The formula for return on investment stated below is the starting for solving this question:
return on investment= Net operating income / Average operating assets
return on investment is 10%
net operating income is the same as controllable margin of $90,000
Average operating assets is the unknown
10%=90000/average operating assets
average operating assets=90000/10%
average operating assets=$900,000
Stellar Company uses a periodic inventory system. For April, when the company sold 600 units, the following information is available. Units Unit Cost Total Cost April 1 inventory280$31$ 8,680 April 15 purchase4503716,650 April 23 purchase 270 40 10,800 1,000 $36,130 Compute the April 30 inventory and the April cost of goods sold using the LIFO method.
Answer:
inventory - $13,120
cost of goods sold - $23,010
Explanation:
LIFO means last in first out. It means that it is the last purchased inventory that is the first to be sold.
the cost of goods sold would be taken from the cost of the newest purchases.
April 23 purchase 270 x 40 = $ 10,800
600 - 270 = 330
April 15 purchase ; 330 x $37 = $12,210
cost of goods sold = $12,210 + $ 10,800 = $23,010
Inventory = the remaining part of the April 15 purchase and beginning inventory
450 - 330 = 120 x $37 = $4440
$4440 + 8,680 = $13,120
Bermuda Triangle Corporation (BTC) currently has 390,000 shares of stock outstanding that sell for $102 per share. Assume no market imperfections or tax effects exist. Determine the share price and new number of shares outstanding if: (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your price per share answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16, and shares outstanding answers to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.) a. BTC has a five-for-three stock split. b. BTC has a 10 percent stock dividend. c. BTC has a 37.0 percent stock dividend. d. BTC has a four-for-seven reverse stock split.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of each points is shown below:-
a. BTC has a five-for-three stock split is
New price = Old price × Split ratio
= 102 × 3 ÷ 5
= 61.2
New shares outstanding = old shares outstanding ÷ Split ratio
= 390,000 × 5 ÷ 3
= 650,000
b. BTC has a 10 percent stock dividend is
New price = Old price ÷ (1 + Stock dividend)
= 102 ÷ (1 + 0.1)
= 92.73
New shares outstanding = Old shares outstanding × (1 + Stock dividend)
= 390,000 × (1 + 0.1)
= 429,000
c. BTC has a 37.0 percent stock dividend is
New price = Old price ÷ (1 + Stock dividend)
= 102 ÷ (1 + 0.37)
= 74.45
New shares outstanding = Old shares outstanding × (1 + Stock dividend)
= 390,000 × (1 + 0.37)
= 534,300
d. BTC has a four-for-seven reverse stock split is
New price = Old price × Split ratio
= 102 × (7 ÷ 4)

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.
Assume the MPC is 0.8. Assuming only the multiplier effect matters, a decrease in government purchases of $100 billion will shift the aggregate demand curve to the:__________
a. left by $180 billion.
b. left by $500 billion.
c. right by $180 billion.
d. right by $400 billion.
Answer:
b. left by $500 billion.
Explanation:
Given marginal propensity to consume, MPC = 0.8
Marginal propensity to consume + Marginal propensity to save = 1
MPC + MPS = 1
0.8 + MPS = 1
MPS = 1-0.8
MPS = 0.2
Now, the government multiplier = 1/MPS
The government multiplier = 1 / 0.2 = 5
Total fall in aggregate demand = Government multiplier × Government purchases
= 5 ×100
= $500
Since there is a fall in spending so the aggregate demand curve will shift leftwards.
Therefore, the correct option is b. left by $500 billion.
