Horizon Financial Inc. was organized on February 28. Projected selling and administrative expenses for each of the first three months of operations are as follows: March $173,900 April 163,500 May 148,800 Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes represent $37,000 of the estimated monthly expenses. The annual insurance premium was paid on February 28, and property taxes for the year will be paid in June. 70% of the remainder of the expenses are expected to be paid in the month in which they are incurred, with the balance to be paid in the following month. Required:Prepare a schedule of cash payments for selling and administrative expenses for March, April, and May. Horizon Financial Inc.
Answer:
Total Cash Payments are as follows:
For March = $95,830
For April = $129,620
For May = $116,210
Explanation:
Note: See the attached Excel file for the schedule of cash payments
The expenses paid in each month can be calculated as follows:
a. March Expenses
Paid in March = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for March - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for March) * Percentage of reminder paid = ($173,900 - $37,000) * 70% = $95,830
Paid in April = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for March - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for March) * Percentage of balance paid = ($173,900 - $37,000) * (100% - 70%) = $41,070
b. April Expenses
Paid in April = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for April - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for April) * Percentage of reminder paid = ($163,500 - $37,000) * 70% = $88,550
Paid in May = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for April - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for April) * Percentage of balance paid = ($173,900 - $37,000) * (100% - 70%) = $37,950
c. May Expenses
Paid in May = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for May - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for May) * Percentage of reminder paid = ($148,800 - $37,000) * 70% = $78,260
Moraine, Inc., has an issue of preferred stock outstanding that pays a 3.50 dividend in perpetuity. If this issue currently sells for 85 per share, what is the required return
Answer:
4.12%
Explanation:
Given that:
Payment of dividend per year = $3.50
Issue price of preferred stock = $85
(Note: Assumed that $85 is the face value of the preferred stock)
Hence, the formula for Required return = Dividend per year/ face value of the stock
= $3.5/ $85 = 0.0411764705
Then converting the answer to percentage, we have
0.0411764705 * 100% = 4.1764705
Therefore, the required return is = 4.12% (approximately)

Explanation:
The Keynesian link between the money market and the goods and services market is __________. Changes in the money market must affect the __________ market before the goods and services market is affected.
Answer:
Indirect; investment.
Explanation:
John Maynard Keynes was a British economist born on the 5th of June, 1883 in Cambridge, England. He was famous for his brilliant ideas on government economic policy and macroeconomics which is known as the Keynesian theory. He later died on the 23rd of April, 1946 in Sussex, England.
The Keynesian link between the money market and the goods and services market is indirect. Changes in the money market must affect the investment market before the goods and services market is affected.
According to the Keynesian Transmission Mechanism, the link between the money market and the goods and services market is indirect; because at first, short-term interest rates are lowered by an increase in the supply of reserves and then with time both the bond and bank loan rates falls. Consequently, this would make investments and aggregate demand (AD curve shifts rightward) to rise or increase as a result of the low cost of capital for investors and by extension it boost the level of production or quantity of output (real gross domestic product or Real GDP).
This ultimately implies that, the interest rates affects the real and costs of capital (monetary changes).
Richards Corporation uses the weighted-average method of process costing. The following information is available for October in its Fabricating Department: Units: Beginning Inventory: 100,000 units, 80% complete as to materials and 25% complete as to conversion. Units started and completed: 290,000. Units completed and transferred out: 390,000. Ending Inventory: 40,000 units, 40% complete as to materials and 10% complete as to conversion. Costs: Costs in beginning Work in Process - Direct Materials: $57,200. Costs in beginning Work in Process - Conversion: $99,700. Costs incurred in October - Direct Materials: $828,520. Costs incurred in October - Conversion: $939,300. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit of materials.
Answer:
$2.64 per units
Explanation:
The computation of the cost per equivalent unit of material is shown below:
Cost per equivalent unit is
= (Beginning conversion cost + cost incurred during October) ÷ (Total equivalent units)
= ($99,700 + $939,300) ÷ (390,000 units + (40,000 units × 10%))
= $1,039,000 ÷ 394,000 units
= $2.64 per units
We simply applied the above formula

21. Preferred stock pays quarterly dividend of $3 a share. If investors require 12% return on a stock of a similar risk level, what is the price
Answer: $100
Explanation:
A value of a Preferred Stock is calculated like a perpetuity which means that it is derived by dividing the cash-flow by the annual interest rate.
This Stock pays $3 per quarter. It will pay _____ per year;
= $3 * 4
= $12
Value of Preferred Stock = [tex]\frac{Annual Cash-flow}{Annual Interest}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{12}{0.12}[/tex]
= $100
Jan's Bakery is considering a merger with Tina's Cookies. Jan's total operating costs of producing services are $300,000 for a sales volume of $2 million. Tina's total operating costs of producing services are $75,000 for a sales volume of $600,000. If the two firms merge, calculate the total average cost for the merged firm assuming no synergies.
Answer:
Jan's Bakery and Tina Cookies
Total Average Cost for the merged firm
= ($300,000 + $75,000)/2
= $187,500
Explanation:
The total average cost for Jan's Bakery and Tina's Cookies is the average of their total operating costs. This is obtained by adding $300,000 to $75,000 and then dividing by 2.
Though, in practical terms, the presence of some synergies will cut some of the operating costs off, especially such costs as rent, advertising, and some other administrative costs. Some selling costs will also be eliminated when the merger goes through.
Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Hudson Co. reports the contribution margin income statement for 2017. HUDSON CO. Contribution Margin Income Statement For Year Ended December 31, 2017 Sales (11,500 units at $225 each) $ 2,587,500 Variable costs (11,500 units at $180 each) 2,070,000 Contribution margin $ 517,500 Fixed costs 360,000 Pretax income $ 157,500 1. Compute Hudson Co.'s break-even point in units and. 2. Compute Hudson Co.'s break-even point in sales dollars.
Answer:
1) Break-even point in units =8000 units
2) Break-even point (sales) = $1,800,000
Explanation:
Break-even point is the level of activity at which a firm must operate such that its total revenue will equal its total costs. At this point, the company makes no profit or loss because the total contribution exactly equals the total fixed costs.
Break even point in units is calculated using this formula:
Break even point in units = Total general fixed cost/ (selling price - Variable cost)
Break-even point in units = 360,000/(225- 180) = 8000 units
Break-even point in units =8000 units
2) Break-even point (sales) is computed as follows:
Break-even point (sales) = Total general fixed cost/C/S ratio.
C/s ratio = (Selling price - variable cost)/Selling price × 100
= (225 - 180)/225 × 100 = 20%
Break-even point (sales) = 360,000/20% = $1,800,000
Break-even point (sales) = $1,800,000
1) Break-even point in units =8000 units
2) Break-even point (sales) = $1,800,000
All of the following are assumptions facing opposing forces of reducing costs and adapting to local markets that international business people should be aware of except? Homogenous customer needs worldwide People around the world are willing to sacrifice preferences for lower prices and higher quality Economies of scale can be obtained in production and marketing through supplying worldwide Lowering international synergy and cost via the value chain matrix
Answer: Lowering international synergy and cost via the value chain matrix
Explanation:
Theodore Levitt came up with some assumptions facing opposing forces of reducing costs and adapting to local markets that international business people should be aware of which include;
On a global scale, customer needs are beginning to become homogeneous.People are willing to sacrifice their preferences for better quality products at a cheaper quality which gives Multinational Companies a chance to offer them better products than local producers due to their large sizes and Economies of scale.Having to supply the world can lead to Economies of scale in production and marketing due to the larger market.Lowering international synergy and cost via the value chain matrix is not one of the assumptions espoused by Theodore Levitt and so is the correct answer.

. Identify each of the following as (i) part of an expansionary fiscal policy, (ii) part of a contractionary fiscal policy, or (iii) not part of fiscal policy. a. The personal income tax rate is lowered. b. Congress cuts spending on defense. c. College students are allowed to deduct tuition costs from their federal income taxes. d. The corporate income tax rate is lowered. e. The state of Nevada builds a new tollway in an attempt to expand employment and ease traffic in Las Vegas.
Answer:
Option, A , D, E = expansionary fiscal policy.
Option B = Contractionary fiscal policy
Option C = not a part of fiscal policy
Explanation:
The expansionary fiscal policy occurred when there is a decrease in taxes and an increase in government expenditure (spendings). While contractionary fiscal policy occurs when taxes are increased by the government and there is a fall or decrease in government spendings. Therefore, Option A, Option D, and Option E are part of the expansionary fiscal policy.
Option B is a contractionary fiscal policy. While option C is not a part of fiscal policy

Maria is an investment adviser who is working through investment objectives and risk tolerance with a new client, Bobby. Bobby indicates that he'd like to see some capital appreciation, achieve at least some income, and wants to maintain a relatively high level of safety and principal protection. The BEST recommendation that Maria can make to Bobby is that Bobby invest in
Answer:
The best recommendation that Maria can make to Bobby is that Bobby should invest in Federal Government Bonds and Treasury Bills.
However, it all depends on what his investments priorities and approach are. For a relatively high level of safety and principal protection, Federal Government Bonds and Treasury Bills are the best bet.
Any other investment that will offer some income will be too risky for safety.
Explanation:
Risk appetite determines a person's investment profile. However, it must be clear that higher returns on investment go with higher risks. Every high return investment compensates for the high risks. It is even the riskiest not to invest. Risk should be studied and accepted when it cannot be avoided. We usually say, "you cannot eat your cake and have it."
Use the information for the question(s) below. Project A Project B Time 0 −10,000 −10,000 Time 1 5,000 4,000 Time 2 4,000 3,000 Time 3 3,000 10,000 If WiseGuy Inc. uses IRR rule to choose projects, which of the projects (Project A or Project B) will rank highest?
Answer:
PROJECT B
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.
IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator
For project A,
Cash flow in year 0 = -10,000
cash flow in year 1 = 5,000
cash flow i year 2 - 4,000
cash flow in year 3 = 3,000
IRR = 10.65%
For project B,
Cash flow in year 0 = -10,000
cash flow in year 1 = 4,000
cash flow i year 2 - 3,000
cash flow in year 3 = 10,000
IRR = 26.37%
Project B would be ranked higher because it has a higher IRR
To find the IRR using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button

Gullett Corporation had $26,000 of raw materials on hand on November 1. During the month, the Corporation purchased an additional $75,000 of raw materials. The journal entry to record the purchase of raw materials would include a:
Answer:
debit to Raw Materials of $75,000
Explanation:
In this scenario, the journal entry to record the purchase of raw materials would include a debit to Raw Materials of $75,000. A debit is an entry recording a sum owed, listed on the left-hand side or column of an account. Therefore in accounting, since Gullet Corporation's purchase was for an "additional" $75,000 worth of raw material, they owe that money to the company and must make it up through sales that those materials should generate in the future. That is why it is recorded as a debit.
rockwell corp just paid a dividend of .50. analysts expect their dividends to increase by 7% every year for the next 3 years, and then have a constant dividend growth rate of 2% after year 3. If your required return is 8% what is the present value of the stock?
Answer:
Price of share today = $9.74
Explanation:
The price of a share can be calculated using the dividend valuation model
According to this model the value of share is equal to the sum of the present values of its future cash dividends discounted at the required rate of return.
If dividend is expected to grow at a given rate , the value of a share is calculated using the formula below:
Price=Do (1+g)/(k-g)
Do - dividend in the following year, K- requited rate of return , g- growth rate
Step 1 : PV of dividend from year 1 to 3
PV = D × (1+r)^(-n)
D- dividend receivable in a particular year, r- required rate of return, n- year
Year PV of Dividend
1 0.50 × 1.07^1 ×1.08^(-1) = 0.495
2 0.50 × 1.07^2 ×1.08^(-2) = 0.491
3 0.50× 1.07^3× 1.08^(-3) = 0.486
Step 2 : PV of dividend from year 4 to infinity
PV (in year 3 terms) of dividend= 0.50× 1.07^3 ×1.02/(0.08-0.02) = 10.41
PV in year 0 terms = 10.41 × 1.08^(-3) = 8.27
Total Present Value = 0.495 + 0.491 + 0.486 + 8.27 = 9.738
Price of share today = $9.74

Patricia is a business owner who is trying to determine the cost of goods sold for 2019. She bought 20 units of inventory at $11, then 26 units at $9, and finally 18 units at $14. She sold 30 units in 2019 and uses FIFO for her inventory valuation. What was her cost of goods sold in 2019, assuming that there was no inventory at the beginning of the year?
Answer:
COGS= $310
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
She bought 20 units of inventory at $11, then 26 units at $9, and finally 18 units at $14.
She sold 30 units in 2019.
Under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) valuation method, the cost of goods sold is calculated using the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory.
COGS= 20*11 + 10*9
COGS= $310

Product 249S 89,000 15,000 55,400
Required:
1. For each product line, compute operating income using the traditional costing system
2. Compute operating income using the activity-based costing system
Answer:
1) Part 1. Operating Income = Revenue - Operating cost
=201,000 - 56,000
=$145,000
Part 2. Operating Income = Revenue - Operating cost
= 159,000 - 55,000
= $104,000
Part 3. Operating Income = Revenue - Operating cost
= 89,000 - 15,000
=$74,000
2. Part 1. Operating Income = Revenue - Operating cost
=201,000 - 45,600
=$155,400
Part 2. Operating Income = Revenue - Operating cost
=159,000 - 25,000
=$134,000

T-Shirt Enterprises is selling in a purely competitive market. It is producing 3,000 units, selling them for $2.00 each. At this level of output, the average total cost is 2.50 and the average variable cost is $2.20. Based on these data, the firm should
Answer:
shutdown in the short run
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
A firm should shut down in the short run if price is less than average variable cost.
for T-Shirt Enterprises, price is $2 which is less than average variable cost

Mary just bought a 20-year bond with an 8% coupon rate (paid semi-annually) and $1000 par value for $1050. She is expecting an effective annual yield (EAY) of
Answer:
7.65%
Explanation:
Calculation for Mary effective annual yield (EAY)
The first step is to find the Semiannual coupon payment using this formula
Semiannual coupon payment=(Par value×Coupon rate percentage/2)
Let plug in the formula
Semiannual coupon payment =($1,000 × 8%) ÷2
Semiannual coupon payment= $80 ÷ 2 = $40
Second step is to find The total number of compounding period will be 20 years bond × The number of the compounding period er year which is 2
Hence,
The total number of compounding period will= 2 periods per year × 20 years = 40 periods.
Third step is to use the financial calculator which calculated the rate as 3.76% which means that:
Semiannual yield will be :3.76%
Therefore the Annual yield will be calculatedas = 3.76% ×2
Annual yield= 7.51%
The last step is to find the effective annual yield (EAY) using this formula
EAY = [1+(Quoted interest rate / m]m -1
Let plug in the formula
EAY = [1+(0.0751÷2)]2 -1
EAY= 7.65%.
Therefore the effective annual yield (EAY) will be 7.65%
The manager of a gas station noticed that when prices in the convenience store of the gas station decreased, gas sales increased. This could possibly be because the convenience store products are
Answer:
usually complements to the gas sales
Explanation:
Complementary products are those that their demand increases with the increased demand of other products.
Complementary products are usually used together. For example tea and sugar are consumed together, so an increase in tea consumption should result in an increase in sugar consumption.
In this scenario when the price of the convenience store products falls, their demand will increase. If there is an increase in gas sales too it is logical to conclude that the convenience store goods are complements of gas sales.
You are given the following information for Watson Power Co. Assume the company’s tax rate is 40 percent.
Debt: 5,000 7.2 percent coupon bonds outstanding, $1,000 par value, 30 years to maturity, selling for 108 percent of par; the bonds make semiannual payments.
Common stock: 440,000 shares outstanding, selling for $62 per share; the beta is 1.05.
Preferred stock: 22,000 shares of 3 percent preferred stock outstanding, currently selling for $82 per share.
Market: 11 percent market risk premium and 5.2 percent risk-free rate.
What is the company's WACC?
Answer:
14.06%
Explanation:
The computation of the company WACC is shown below:
Particulars After tax Market value Weights WACC
(cost % × weights)
Common stock 16.75% $27,280,000 0.79 13.25%
(440,000 shares × $62)
Preferred stock 3.66% $1,804,000 0.05 0.19%
(22,000 shares × $82)
Debt 3.95% $5,400,000 0.16 0.62%
(5,000 shares × $1,000 × 108%)
Total $34,484,000 1
WACC 14.06%
Working note
Cost of common equity is
= Risk free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium
= 5.2% + 1.05 × 11%
= 5.2% + 11.55%
= 16.75%
Cost of preferred stock is
= Annual dividend ÷ Market price per share
= 0.03 ÷ $82
= 3.65%
And, the cost of debt is calculated by using the RATE formula i.e
= RATE(NPER,PMT,-PV,FV)
= RATE(30 × 2, $1,000 × 7.2% ÷ 2, -$1,080, $1,000)
After calculated this, the rate of interest should be multiplied by 2 and then applied the tax rate of (1 - 0.40)
So, the rate is 3.95%
