According to the Uniform Prudent Investors Act , it is NOT a breach of fiduciary duty if investment advisers do not inquire into a client's A) investment objectives B) specific financial needs C) Social Security or tax ID number D) financial situation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: C) Social Security or tax ID number

Explanation:

The Uniform Prudent Investors Act lists guidelines to be followed by investment advisers and trustees when they invest assets. The guiding principle of this Act is the Prudent Man Rule which is that when investing, the investor should invest like a Prudent person would invest their assets.

As such, an investor should be sure to find out some details about the client to enable them better recommend an investment trajectory. Details such as their specific financial needs, their investment objectives and their financial situation will enable the advisers better know what investment strategies and vehicles to use and therefore not inquiring about them would be a breach of fiduciary duty.

Knowing about a client's Social Security or tax ID number will not help the adviser chart an investment course better so does not need to be known.

Bloomfield carried the Clor investment at $150,650 and $165,300 at December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2021, respectively. During 2021 Clor recognized $75,600 of net income and paid dividends of $20,500. Assuming that Bloomfield owned the same percentage of Clor throughout 2021, its percentage ownership must have been: (Round your answer to the nearest whole percent):

Answers

Answer:

Suppose that in year 2021, Bloomfield had equal share of percentage of ownership in Clor as they had in previous year i.e 2020, it means that in 2021, the share of percentage that will be held by Bloomfield in Clor will be 26.59%

Explanation:

From the above, we will assume that Bloomfield stake in Clor using equity method and also investment in 2020 was $150,650 and $165,300 in 2021.

Inorder to calculate the percentage , we can make it Y hence we will add amount in 2020 with Y% of (Net income - Dividend declared) inorder to arrive at the total amount in 2021.

Solution.

$150,650 + Y% (75,600 - $20,500) = $165,300

$150,650 + $55,100Y = $165,300

$55,100Y = $165,300 - $150,650

$55,100Y = $14,650

Y% = $14,650/$55,100

Y% = 0.26588

Y = 0.26588 × 100

Y = 26.59

Answers

Answer:

1-7 days

Explanation:

But, ideally 4 days should be the maximum for prepared food to be refrigerated before it is sold or served.

Leaving food refrigerated for a long time makes it to lose its nutrients.  Some foods like potatoes, meat, eggs, chicken, etc. can become harmful or poisonous, especially when you reheat them before eating.  That is why it is right to adhere to proper routines for refrigerating food and also preparing and serving the food.  Some healthy food are better eaten immediately after their preparation.

Max Company uses 20,000 units of Part A in producing its products. A supplier offers to make Part A for $7. Max Company has relevant costs of $8 a unit to manufacture Part A. If there is excess capacity, the opportunity cost of not buying Part A from the supplier is:________
a) $20,000.
b) $0.
c) $160,000.
d) $140,000.

Answers

Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Max company makes use of 20,000 units of part A to manufacture its product

A supplier offers to produce part A for $7

Max company has relevant costs to $8 per unit to produce part A

Therefore, the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier can be calculated as follows

Opportunity cost= 20,000 units of part A($8-$7)

= 20,000 units×$1

= 20,000×$1

= $20,000

Hence the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier when there is excess capacity is $20,000

Garcia Company issues 10%, 15-year bonds with a par value of $230,000 and semiannual interest payments. On the issue date, the annual market rate for these bonds is 8%, which implies a selling price of 117 1/4. The effective interest method is used to allocate interest expense.
1. Using the implied selling price of 117 1/4, what are the issuer's cash proceeds from issuance of these bonds.
2. What total amount of bond interest expense will be recognized over the life of these bonds?
3. What amount of bond interest expense is recorded on the first interest payment date?

Answers

Answer:

A.$269,675

B.$305,325

C.$10,787

Explanation:

Requirement A Cash proceeds

Cash proceeds can find out by multiplying par value with the selling price

Cash proceeds = Par Value x Selling price

Cash proceeds = $230,000 x 117.25%

Cash proceeds = $269,675

Requirement B Interest Expense

Bond interest expense =Total repayment -Amount borrowed(REQ.A)

Bond interest expense = $575,000(w) - $269,675

Bond interest expense = $305,325

Workings

Semi-annual interest expense =  $230,000 x 10% x 6/12

Semi-annual interest expense = $11,500

Total payment would be 30 for 15 years

Total payment = $11,500 x 30

Total payment = $345,000

Total repayment = Par value + $345,000

Total repayment = $230,000 + $345,000

Total repayment = $575,000

Requirement C Bond interest expense on the first interest payment date

Bond interest Expense = $269,675(REQ.A) x 8% x 6/12

Bond interest Expense = $10,787

Q3) At an output level of 45,000 units, you calculate that the degree of operating leverage is 2.79. If output rises to 48,000 units, what will the percentage change in operating cash flow be

Answers

Answer:  18.6%

Explanation:

Degree of operating leverage =  % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output

% change in Output

= [tex]\frac{48,000 - 45,000}{45,000}[/tex]

= 6.7%

Degree of operating leverage =  % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output

2.79 = % change in Operating cash flow/ 6.7%

% change in Operating cash flow = 2.79 * 6.7%

% change in Operating cash flow = 18.6%

The 10.9 percent preferred stock of Rock Bottom Floors is selling for $91 a share. What is the firm's cost of preferred stock if the tax rate is 44 percent and the par value per share is $100

Answers

Answer: 11.978%

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the 10.9 percent preferred stock of Rock Bottom Floors is selling for $91 a share. We are further informed that the tax rate is 44 percent and the par value per share is $100.

The firm's cost of preferred stock will be 10.9% multiplied by the par value per share and then divided by the share price of $91. This will be:

= (10.9% × 100)/91

= (0.109 × 100)/91

= 10.9/91

= 0.11978

= 11.978%

All of the material purchased was used to produce 1,500 units of Zoom. 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct material:

Standard= 7.40 pounds $ 2.60 per pound

Actual= 12,100 pounds of material were purchased for $2.50 per pound.

Direct labor:

Standard= 0.45 hours $ 8.00 per hour

Actual= 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750

Units produced= 1,500

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (2.6 - 2.5)*12,100

Direct material price variance= $1,210 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

standard quantity= 1,500*7.4= 11,100

Direct material quantity variance= (11,100 - 12,100)*2.6

Direct material quantity variance= $2,600 unfavorable

To calculate the direct labor efficiency and rate variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Standard quantity= 1,500*0.45= 675

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (675 - 575)*8

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $800 favorable

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Actual rate= 5,750/575= $10

Direct labor rate variance= (8 - 10)*575

Direct labor rate variance= $1,150 unfavorable

9. Paid $148,000 to tear down old building on new plant site.
10. Paid $31 ,000 maintenance on equipment in (4) during its first year of use.

Answers

Answer:

Options 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are capital expenditure.

Options 1, 3, and 10 are the immediate expenses.

Option 5 is Neither.

Explanation:

Capital expenditure is those expenditures that are incurred to maintain the fixed assets. Thus Options 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are capital expenditure. While the expenses that are compulsory and immediate in nature are called the immediate expenses. This means if the equipment requires repairing then it will fall in the category of immediate expense because without repairing it won't work. Therefore, a property tax of $75000, repair of the main plant,  and maintenance for equipment are immediate expenses.

Explanation:

Cost of Goods Manufactured

Manufacturing costs (20,000 units):

Direct materials                  852,000

Direct labor                         202,000

Variable factory overhead   94,000

Fixed factory overhead       112,000

Total                                 1,260,000

Cost of Goods Manufactured

Manufacturing costs (22,400 units):

Direct materials (852,000  / 20,000 × 22,400)                    =  $954,240

Direct labor (202,000   / 20,000 × 22,400)                          = $226,240

Variable factory overhead (94,000   / 20,000 × 22,400)    =  $105,280

Fixed factory overhead                                                         =   $112,000

Total                                                                                       = $1,397,760

Closing Inventory = $1,397,760 / 22,400 × 2,400

                               = $149,760

The estimated net income in the manufacturing of 22,400 units is more than the income of 20,000 units by applying the method of absorption costing.

What do you mean by Absorption costing?

Absorption costs, sometimes referred to as “total costs,” are a management method of taking into account all the costs associated with producing a particular product.

Direct and indirect costs, such as direct assets, direct employment, rent, and insurance, are calculated using this method.

a) The calculation of the estimated income statement for 22,400 units and 20,000 units is shown in the image below.

b) The reason for the difference in the income from operations for the two production levels is because of the presence of closing inventories, which reduces the cost of goods sold and increases the income from operations.

Working note:

[tex]\rm\,Cost \; of \;Goods \;Manufactured \;=\\Manufacturing \; Costs (20,000 units)= Direct \;Materials \;+ Direct \; Labor + Variable \;factory \;overhead + Fixed \;factory \;overhead\\\\Manufacturing costs (20,000 units)=852,000+202,000+94,000+112,000\\\\Manufacturing costs (20,000 units) = \$1,260,000[/tex]

Cost of manufacturing when 22,400 units are produced:

Manufacturing costs (22,400 units):

[tex]\rm\,Manufacturing \; Costs (22,400 units):\\Direct \; Materials (\dfrac{852,000}{20,000} \times 22,400) = $954,240\\\rm\,Direct \;labor \;\dfrac{202,000}{20,000}\times 22,400 = $226,240\\Variable factory overhead \dfrac{94,000}{20,000 }\times 22,400 = $105,280\\Fixed factory overhead = $112,000[/tex]

[tex]\rm\,Cost \; of \;Goods \;Manufactured \;= Manufacturing \; Costs (22,400 units)= Direct \;Materials \;+ Direct \; Labor + Variable \;factory \;overhead + Fixed \;factory \;overhead\\\\\rm\,Cost \; of \;Goods \;Manufactured \; = 954,240+26,240+105,280+ 112,000\\\\\rm\,Cost \; of \;Goods \;Manufactured \; = \$1,397,760\\\\Closing \,Inventory = \dfrac{\$1,397,760}{22,400}\times 2,400 \\\\Closing \,Inventory = \$149,760[/tex]

Hence, it can be concluded that the estimated net income in the manufacturing of 22,400 units is more than the income of 20,000 units by applying the method of absorption costing.

distributes a product that sells for $8 per unit. Variable expenses are $4 per unit, and fixed expenses total $20000 annually. Assume that the company sold 21600 units last year. The president wants to increase the sales commission by $0.6 per unit. She thinks that this move, combined with some increase in advertising, would double annual unit sales. Q: By how much could advertising be increased with profits remaining unchanged

Answers

Answer:

$60,480

Explanation:

The computation of advertising be increased with profits remaining unchanged is shown below:-

Particulars                               Current                 Proposed

Units                                         21,600                     43,200

Sales                                       $172,800                $345,600

                                            ($8 × 21,600)           ($16 × 21,600)

Less: Variable expenses        $86,400                $172,800

                                             (21,600 × $4)         (43,200 × $4)

Sales commission                     -                            $25,920

Less: Fixed expenses         $20,000                      $20,000

Net income                           $66,400                  $126,880

So, the difference is $126,880 - $66,400

= $60,480

None of them have any parameters. void displayMenu() void findSquareArea() void findCircleArea() void findTriangleArea() To do that you will need to carry out the following steps: Write prototypes for the four functions and place them above main. Write function definitions (consisting of a function header and initially empty body) for the four functions and place them below main. Move the appropriate code out of main and into the body of each function. Move variable definitions in main for variables no longer in main to whatever functions now use those variables. They will be local variables in those functions. For example, findSquareArea will need to define the side variable and findCircleArea will need to define the radius variable. All of the functions that compute areas will now need to define a variable named area. Move the definition for the named constant PI out of main and place it above the main function. In main, replace each block of removed code with a function call to the function now containing that block of code. Ruby is 25 and has a good job at a biotechnology company.
