"Alou Company has 20,000 beginning finished goods units. Budgeted sales units are 160,000. If management desires 15,000 ending finished goods units, what are the required units of production
Answer:
155,000
Explanation:
The computation of the required units of production is shown below:-
Required units of production = Sales units + Ending finished goods - Beginning finished goods
= 160,000 units + 15,000 units - 20,000 units
= 155,000
Therefore for computing the required units of production we simply applied the above formula.
If Treasury bills are currently paying 6.5 percent and the inflation rate is 1.3 percent, what is the approximate and the exact real rate of interest
Answer:
the approximate real interest rate = nominal rate - inflation rate = 6.5% - 1.3% = 5.2%
the exact real interest rate is calculated using the following formula:
(1 + nominal interest rate) = (1 + real interest rate) (1 + expected rate of inflation)
(1 + 0.065) = (1 + real interest rate) x (1 + 0.013)
1 + real interest rate = (1 + 0.065) / (1 + 0.013) = 1.065 / 1.013 = 1.05133
real interest rate = 1.05133 - 1 = 0.05133 = 5.13%
Logan and Johnathan exchange land, and the exchange qualifies as like kind under § 1031. Because Logan's land (adjusted basis of $193,000) is worth $231,600 and Johnathan's land has a fair market value of $183,350, Johnathan also gives Logan cash of $48,250. a. Logan's recognized gain is $ . b. Assume that Johnathan's land is worth $208,440 and he gives Logan $23,160 cash. Logan's recognized gain is $ .
Answer:
a. Logan's recognized gain is $38,600
b. Logan's recognized gain is $23,160
Explanation:
a. If the worth of the land for Jonathan is $183,350, then the gain recognized by Logan would be;
the lower of the realized gain between the amount realized of $231,600 - adjusted basis of $193,000 = $38,600
or the fair market worth of the received boot i.e $48,250.
Therefore, Logan's recognized gain is $38,600
b. Suppose Jonathan's land is worth, $208,440, then we can calculate Logan's recognized gain to be ;
the lower of the realized gain I.e amount realized of $231,600 - adjusted basis $193,00 = $38,600
or the fair market value of the received boot I.e $23,160 .
Therefore, Logan's recognized gain is $23,160
Justin hires Miguel to sell his baseball glove for $560. As part of their contract, Justin will pay him $100 to conduct the sale. Justin is a _______________________. Group of answer choices

Explanation:
This is a factorage transaction in which Justin will pay Miguel to act as an intermediary who will sell the baseball glove and receive a commission. That commission is known as a Factorage.
In a Factorage transaction, the intermediary being paid to sell the product is considered to be the Factor and the person who will pay for the product to be sold is the Factee. Justin in this scenario is paying for the baseball glove to be sold and so is the Factee.
Danaher Woodworking Corporation produces fine furniture. The company uses a job-order costing system in which its predetermined overhead rate is based on capacity. The capacity of the factory is determined by the capacity of its constraint, which is an automated lathe. Additional information is provided below for the most recent month: Estimates at the beginning of the month: Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead $ 36,400 Capacity of the lathe 400 hours Actual results: Actual total fixed manufacturing overhead $ 36,400 Actual hours of lathe use 380 hours Required: a. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate based on capacity. b. Calculate the manufacturing overhead applied. c. Calculate the cost of unused capacity.
Answer:
a. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate based on capacity.
$91 per lathe hourb. Calculate the manufacturing overhead applied.
$34,580c. Calculate the cost of unused capacity.
$1,820Explanation:
Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead $36,400
Capacity of the lathe 400 hours
predetermined overhead rate per lathe hour = $36,400 / 400 = $91
actual results:
Actual total fixed manufacturing overhead $36,400
Actual hours of lathe use 380 hours
applied overhead = $91 x 380 lathe hours = $34,580
cost of unused capacity = $36,400 - $34,580 = $1,820
You invest a single amount of $14,800 for 7 years at 15 percent. At the end of 7 years you take the proceeds and invest them for 14 years at 17 percent. How much will you have after 21 years
Answer:
Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11
Explanation:
The value of an amount invested at a certain rate of return for certain number of years where interest compounded annually is known as the future value.
The future value of an investment can be determined using the future value formula. This formula is stated below:
FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)
FV - Future Value , PV- Present Value, r-rate of return, n- number of years
For the first round of investment 15% for 7 years, future value would be:
FV = 14,800 × (1.15)^(7) = 39,368.29
Second round of investing 17% for 14 year, future value would be
FV = 39,368.29 × (1.17)^(14)= 354,608.11
Future Value =$354,608.11
Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11
Through which strategy do you believe Lockheed Martin would be most profitable to pursue diversification?
Answer: Related diversification
Explanation:
Here is the complete question:
Lockheed Martin has been a recognized brand in technology for aeronautics and space systems fordecades. The U.S. government is Lockheed Martin’s main customer. Recently, as large-scale military actions have decreased across the globe, the government has been consuming less of Lockheed Martin’sofferings.
As a top of executive of Lockheed Martin, you’ve been asked to consider the opportunities to diversify into new markets in order to remain competitive and continue to increase profits.
Through which strategy do you believe Lockheed Martin would be most profitable to pursue diversification?
Related diversification occurs when a business or an organization expands its activities into similar product lines that to the ones it currently offers.
An example of related diversification is when a computer manufacturer starts making calculators.
By pursuing related diversification, Martin is exploring innovative products which are still within aeronautics scope.
Lincoln Park Co. has a bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.66 percent and semiannual payments. The yield to maturity is 6.3 percent and the bond matures in 16 years. What is the market price if the bond has a par value of $2,000?
Answer:
Market price of Bond = $1872.135629 rounded off to $1872.14
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 2000 * 0.0566 * 1/2 = $56.6
Total periods (n)= 16 * 2 = 32
r = 6.3% * 1/2 = 3.15% or 0.0315
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 56.6 * [( 1 - (1+0.0315)^-32) / 0.0315] + 2000 / (1+0.0315)^32
Bond Price = $1872.135629 rounded off to $1872.14

2017 2016 2015
Cost of goods sold $643,825 $426,650 $391,300
Ending inventory 97,400 87,750 92,500
Required:
(a) Use the above information to compute inventory turnover for 2016, and its days' sales in inventory at December 31, 2016.
Numerator / Denominator = Ratio
Inventory turnover $426,650 / $90,125 = 4.7 times
Days' sales in inventory ?
(b) Use the above information to compute inventory turnover for 2017, and its days' sales in inventory at December 31, 2017.
Numerator / Denominator = Ratio
Inventory turnover $643,825 / $92,575 = 7.0times
Days' sales in inventory ?
Answer:
a.
i. 4.7 times
ii. 77.1 days
b
i. 7 times
ii. 52.1 days
Explanation:
Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory
average inventory for 2016 = ( 87,750 + 92,500 ) / 2 = $90,125
Inventory turnover $426,650 / $90,125 = 4.7 times
Days' sales in inventory = 365 / inventory turnover = 77.1 days
for 2017
inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory
average inventory for 2017 = ( 97,400 + 87,750 ) / 2 = $92,575
Inventory turnover $643,825 / $92,575 = 7.0 times
Days' sales in inventory = 365 / inventory turnover = 52.1 days

A bond has a $1,000 par value, 20 years to maturity, and pays a coupon of 5.5% per year, annually. The bond is callable in ten years at $1,075. If the bond’s yield to maturity is 5.89% per year, what is its yield to call? Question 13 options: A) 5.87% B) 6.57% C) 6.11% D) 6.43% E) 6.68%
Answer:
6.68% , option E is correct
Explanation:
The price of the bond can be computed using the below formula for bond price calculation:
bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n)/r
face value is $1000
r is the yield to maturity which is 5.89%
coupon=face value*coupon rate=1000*5.5%=55
n is the number of coupons the bond would pay which is 11 coupons over 20 years
bond price=1000/(1+5.89%)^20+55*(1-(1+5.89%)^-20)/5.89%
bond price=$ 954.87
The yield on the call can be determined using excel rate function as further explained below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of coupons the bond would pay before being called in ten years' time i.e 10 coupons
pmt is the is the amount of annual coupon=$1000*5.5%=$55
pv is the current price of $954.87
fv is the call price which is $1,075
=rate(10,55,-954.87,1075)=6.68%

Explanation:
Suppose that borrowing is restricted so that the zero-beta version of the CAPM holds. The expected return on the market portfolio is 17%, and on the zero-beta portfolio it is 8%. What is the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6?
Answer:
10.4%
Explanation:
The computation of expected return on a portfolio is shown below:-
Expected return = Risk Free return + 5%Beta ( Market Return - Risk Free return)
= 5% + 0.60 × (17% - 8%)
= 5% + 5.4%
= 10.4%
Therefore for computing the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6 we simply applied the above formula.
The market return less risk free return is known as market risk premium
The American car battery industry boasts that its recycling rate now exceeds 95%, the highest rate for any commodity. However, with changes brought about by specialization and globalization, parts of the recycling system are moving offshore. This is particularly true of automobile batteries, which contain lead. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is contributing to the offshore flow with newly implemented standards that make domestic battery recycling increasingly difficult and expensive. The result is a major increase in used batteries going to Mexico, where environmental standards and control are less demanding than they are in the U.S. One in five batteries is now exported to Mexico. There is seldom difficulty finding buyers because lead is expensive and in worldwide demand. While U.S. recyclers operate in sealed, mechanized plants, with smokestacks equipped with scrubbers and plant surroundings monitored for traces of lead, this is not the case in most Mexican plants. The harm from lead is legendary
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The question is incomplete. There are parts of the question missing. Indeed, there is no question posted, it is just a statement.
However, we can do research and comment on the following.
We are facing two scenarios here. Both, ethical dilemmas that need to be solved.
1) as an independent auto repair shop owner that tries to safely dispose of a few old batteries each week. (Your battery supplier is an auto parts supplier who refuses to take your old batteries.)
In this case, I would check the original agreement with the supplier to see if there is a clause on old batteries management. If not, I would ask it to help me solve this issue because I am his client and has to take care of me and the environment. Otherwise, I would have to contemplate the option of changing supplier.
2) I am the manager of a large retailer responsible for the disposal of thousands of used batteries each day.
In this other case, I would follow the Environmental Department rules and regulations to comply with the correct procedures. This means to ask for support and orientation to get all the revisions to work properly. Because I know all the consequences of not recycling correctly or the damage done to humans and the environment. So although it could be more money, and would modernize my equipment to better manage the disposal of batteries. It would be an investment, not an expense.
You experiment by offering free warranties for your product in market A but not in market B. Sales in A rise from 240 to 360 units per week while sales in B rise from 410 to 430. The Difference-in-difference estimate of the effect of the free warranty is:
Answer:
Difference in difference estimate = 50 - 5% = 45 %
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Market A Market B
Sales 240 410
Sales rise 360 430
Rise difference 120 20
Percentage of rise 50% 5%
120/240 x 100 = 50%
20/41 x 100 = 4.878% or 5%
Therefore, the Difference in difference estimate = 50 - 5% = 45 %
One can then say that the free warranties in market A brought about a difference in difference of 45% in Market A when compared to the no warranties in Market B. This can be seen from the presented data. Sales in A rose from 240 units to 360 units, an increase of 120 units or 50%. Sales in market B only rose from 410 to 430, an increase of 20 units or 5%. This difference in difference estimator shows the effect of the free warranty on market A and market B. This means that the firm could do better by introducing the free warranties for its product in market B, all things being equal.

Use the following information for Jett Co. to answer the following question: 2015 2014 Sales 1,200 1,000 COGS 850 700 Operating Expenses 200 200 Income Taxes 30 35 Jett Co.'s average tax rates for 2015 and 2014 are: A. 15.5% and 10.0% B. 20.0% and 35.0% C. 25.8% and 35.4%. D. 31.4% and 36.8%.
Answer:
B. 20.0% and 35.0%
Explanation:
Jett Co.'s Average tax rates for 2015 = Income taxes paid / Taxable income
When, Taxable Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Operating expenses
= $1,200 - $850 - $200
= $150
Hence, Jett Co.'s Average tax rates for 2015 = $30 / $150
= 20%
Jett Co.'s Average tax rates for 2014 = Income taxes paid / Taxable income
When Taxable Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Operating expenses
= $1,000 - $700 - $200
= $100
Hence, Jett Co.'s Average tax rates for 2014 = $35 / $100
= 35%
Given the following cash flows for a capital project, calculate its payback period and discounted payback period. The required rate of return is 8 percent.
Year
0 1 2 3 4 5
Glass Flows $51100 $13150 $16050 $23900 $12400 $3050
The discounted payback period is:________.
a. 0.39 year longer than the payback period.
b. 0.64 year longer than the payback period.
c. 0.76 years longer than the payback period.
d. 0.25 years longer than the payback period.
Answer:
c. 0.76 years longer than the payback period.
Explanation:
Payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.
the amounted invested in the project = $-51100
In year 1, the amount recovered = $-51,100 + $13150 = $-37,950
In year 2, the amount recovered = $-37,950 + $16050 = $-21,900
In year 3, the amount recovered = $-21,900 + $23900 = $2000
the amount invested is recovered in 2 + 21,900 / 23900 = 2.92 years
Discounted payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.
discounted cash flows
$13150 / 1.08 = $12,175.93
$16050 / 1.08^2 = $13,760.29
$23900 / 1.08^3 = $18972.59
$12400 / 1.08^4 = $9114.37
the amount is recovered in 3 + 6191.19 / 9114.37 = 3.68 years
the discounted payback is longer than the payback period by 3.68 years - 2.92 years = 0.76 years
Suppose the price level and value of the U.S. Dollar in year 1 are 1 and $1, respectively. Instructions: Round your answers to 2 decimal places. a. If the price level rises to 1.55 in year 2, what is the new value of the dollar
Answer: $0.65
Explanation:
The Price Level and the value of a currency are inversely related because inflation erodes the value of the currency. Therefore if the price level increases, the value of the currency drops. The reverse is true.
The formula therefore is is;
New Value = [tex]\frac{1}{Price Level}[/tex]
New Value = [tex]\frac{1}{1.55}[/tex]
New Value = 0.6452
New Value = $0.65

Gross profit for the White and Grey Divisions is: WhiteGrey A.$97,200 $272,700 B.$232,200 $475,200 C.$135,000 $337,500 D.$72,200 $247,700 E.$97,200 $247,700
Answer:
White Division Gross Profit = $72,200
Grey Division Gross Profit = $247,700
Explanation:
White Division Grey division
Sales (net) $270,000 $540,000
Less: Cost of goods sold $135,000 $202,500
Gross Margin $135,000 $337,500
Less: Salary Expenses $37,800 $64,800
Rent $25,000 $25,000
Gross Profit $72,200 $247,700
The White Division occupies 25,000 square feet in the plant. The Grey Division occupies 25,000 square feet. Hence, the rent expenses will be shared equally. Rent = $50,000 hence, both division will pay $25,000 each for rent

What would you pay for a bond that pays an annual coupon of $70, paid semiannually, par value, matures in 6 years, and has a yield to maturity of 8%
Answer:
Price per bond is $953.77
Explanation:
The price to be paid for the bond can be computed using pv excel function as below:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is the yield to maturity of 8%
nper is number of coupons that the bond would pay i.e 6 annual coupons in 6 years
pmt is the annual coupon of $70
fv is the face value of $1000 by default
=-pv(8%,6,70,1000)=$953.77
At July 31, Farmer Company has this bank information: cash balance per bank $8,344; outstanding checks $804; deposits in transit $1,383; and a bank service charge $58.
Determine the adjusted cash balance per bank at July 31.
The adjusted cash balance per bank at July 31:___________.
Answer:
The adjusted balance per bank is $8923
Explanation:
Adjusted cash balance per bank
Cash balance per bank (unadjusted) 8344
(+) Deposits in transit 1383
(-) Outstanding checks (804)
Cash balance per bank (adjusted) 8923
The adjusted cash balance per bank is calculated by adjusting the transactions that do not appear on the current bank statement.
The deposits in transit is the amount of cash deposited in the bank, that will increase the bank balance, which is still in process and has not been added to the bank account as of now. Thus, we will add this amount to calculate the adjusted bank balance.
The outstanding checks amount is the amount of checks that have been issued by the business but which are yet to be presented by the recipients of checks and will result in a reduction in the bank balance. Thus, we deduct them to calculate the adjusted balance.
The bank charge is deducted by the bank itself thus we assume that it has already been deducted. So, no adjustment is made for this.

The total amount of direct manufacturing cost incurred is closest to $53,700
Bryant Co. has $2.7 million of debt, $1 million of preferred stock, and $2.1 million of common equity. What would be its weight on preferred stock
Answer:
0.172
Explanation:
The computation of the weight on the preferred stock is shown below:
Weight on preferred stock is
= Preferred stock ÷(Debt + preferred stock + common equity)
= $1 million ÷ ($2.7 million + $1 million + $2.1 million)
= $1 million ÷ $5.8 million
= 0.172
By applying the above formula we can easily determine the weight on preferred stock
Kant Corporation retires its $100,000 face value bonds at 102 on January 1, following the payment of interest. The carrying value of the bonds at the redemption date is $96,250. The entry to record the redemption will include a
Answer:
Refer to the explanation below
Explanation:
Please see the journal entry below;
Dr Bonds payable $100,000
Dr Loss on retirement of bonds
$5,750
( $102,000 + $3,750 - $100,000)
To Cash $102,00( $100,000 × 1.02)
To Discount on bonds payable
$3,750( $100,000 - $96,250)
(Being redemption that is recorded)
Because bonds payable and loss on retirement of bonds decreases the liability and increased the loss, hence were debited. Cash and discount on bonds payable were credited because it decreases the assets and increased liabilities respectively.
The desired reserve ratio is 3 percent. Robert deposits $3,000 in Bank America. Bank America keeps its minimum desired reserves and lends the excess to Fredrica. How much does Bank America lend to Fredrica?
Answer: $2,910
Explanation:
Bank America is required by law to keep 3% of all deposits as reserves and they can lend the rest which they did to Fredrica.
The amount they lent to Fredrica therefore is;
= 3,000 (1 - 3%)
= 3,000 * 97%
= $2,910
