Answer:
Arianna's basis for loss $277,335
Arianna's basis for gain $308,,150
Explanation:
Calculation for Arianna's gain basis and loss basis
Since the original basis for loss on personal use assets that is been converted to either the business or the income producing use is the lower or lesser of the property's adjusted basis or fair market value on the date of conversion which means that the gain basis for the converted property will tend to be the property's adjusted basis on the date of conversion.
Arianna's basis for loss will be $277,335 (lower of $308,150 adjusted basis and fair market value of $277,335).
The amount of $30,815 that was been decline in value is a personal loss whichncan never be recognized for tax purposes this means that Arianna's basis for gain is $308,,150 (adjusted basis).
If the rate of inflation is 4.8 %4.8%, what nominal interest rate is necessary for you to earn a 2.2 %2.2% real interest rate on your investment? (Note: Be careful not to round any intermediate steps less than six decimal places.
Answer:
Nominal rate of return= 7.11%
Explanation:
Inflation is the increase in the price level.It erodes the value of money.rise in the price of money
Nominal interest is that quoted for investment or loan transactions. It has not been been adjusted for inflation.
Real interest rate is the amount of interest in terms of the the quantity of good and services that can be purchased. It is the nominal interest rate adjusted for inflation.
The relationship between inflation, real interest and nominal interest rate is given using the Fishers Effect;
N = ( (1+R) × (1+F)) - 1
N- nominal rate, R-real rate, F- inflation
real rate - 2.2%, inflation - 4.8%
Nominal rate of return =(1.022)× (1.048) - 1 = 0.071056
Nominal rate of return = 0.071056 × 100 = 7.1056 %
Nominal rate of return= 7.11%
Which of the following is approximately the Value at Risk at 5 percent of a portfolio of $10 million of asset A, whose expected return is 10 percent and volatility is 20 percent, and $10 million of asset B, whose expected return is 16 percent and volatility is 25 percent, where the correlation between the two assets is 0.1.
A. $5.6 million
B. $10 million
C. $15 million
D. $1.25 million
E. none of the above
Answer:
A. $5.6 million
Explanation:
Value at risk is the minimum value of portfolio that is considered to lose in case of certain event or volatility. There are two assets in the given scenario and both of them have worth of $10 million. The correlation between them is 0.1 which means there is low strength relationship between the two assets. The value at risk can be found by:
($10 * 5% * 20%) + ($10 * 16% * 25%) * log 1.65
= 5.6 million
An estate provides a perpetuity with payments of X at the end of each year. Seth, Susan, and Lori share the perpetuity such that Seth receives the payments of X for the first n years and Susan receives the payments of X for the next m years, after which Lori receives all the remaining payments of X. Which of the following represents the difference between the present value of Seth's and Susan's payments using a constant rate of interest?
a. X[an-vnam]
b. X[¨an-vn¨am]
c. X[an-vn+1am]
d. X[an-vn-1am]
e. X[van-vn+1am]
Answer: a. [tex]X[a_{n} -v^{n} a_{m} ][/tex]
Explanation:
The Present Value of the perpetuity for Seth is denoted by;
= [tex]X * a_{n}[/tex] because Seth receives it for n years.
The Present Value of the perpetuity for Susan is denoted by;
= [tex]Xv^{n} * a_{m}[/tex] because it is the value after n periods multiplied by the payments received for m periods.
The result is;
= [tex]X * a_{n}[/tex] - [tex]Xv^{n} * a_{m}[/tex]
= [tex]X[a_{n} -v^{n} a_{m} ][/tex]

A company discarded a computer system originally purchased for $18,000. The accumulated depreciation was $17,200. The company should recognize a(an):
Answer:
The company should recognize a $800 loss.
Explanation:
Depreciation is the loss of value of an asset over its useful life, and because of the accrual principle, this depreciation is matched, as an expense, with the revenues that the asset produces in a specific period of time.
In this case, the company has expensed $17,200 over the computer system useful life. When the computer system was finally discarded, $800, representing the difference between the accumulated depreciation and the original cost of the system, where not expensed. For this reason, this $800 have to be recognized as a loss.

At the beginning of the current fiscal year, the balance sheet of Hughey Inc. showed stockholders' equity of $523,000. During the year, liabilities increased by $28,000 to $232,000; paid-in capital increased by $37,000 to $174,000; and assets increased by $259,000. Dividends declared and paid during the year were $46,000.
Required:
Calculate net income or loss for the year.
Stockholders’ Equity
Assets = Liabilities + PIC + RE
Beginning = + + $260,000 SE
Changes 130,000 = 11,000 + 20,000 +
Ending = $116,000 + $90,000 +
Answer:
net income = $240,000
Explanation:
beginning stockholders' equity $523,000
beginning liabilities $204,000, ending liabilities $232,000 ($28,000 increase)
beginning paid in capital $137,000, ending $174,000 ($37,000 increase)
assets increased by $259,000
dividends $46,000
assets = liabilities + equity
beginning assets = $204,000 + $523,000 = $727,000
ending assets = $727,000 + $259,000 = $986,000
ending equity = ending assets - ending liabilities = $986,000 - $232,000 = $754,000
beginning equity = beginning paid in capital + retained earnings
beginning retained earnings = $523,000 - $137,000 = $386,000
ending equity = ending paid in capital + retained earnings
ending retained earnings = $754,000 - $174,000 = $580,000
ending retained earnings = beginning retained earnings + net income - dividends
$580,000 = $386,000 + net income - $46,000
net income = $580,000 + $46,000 - $386,000 = $240,000

Answer: Debit Notes Receivable $10,400; credit Accounts Receivable $10,400.
Explanation:
Mifflin Company is receiving the note back from Payton Summers which means that Payton Summers intends to settle their account. The correct entry to record therefore is one that closes off the Notes Receivable account by debiting it as it was on a credit balance.
The other account would be the Accounts Receivable account which would need to be credited by the amount owed to close off the account as it was on a debit balance as Accounts Receivables are when customers are still owing.

Tri Fecta, a partnership, had revenues of $373,000 in its first year of operations. The partnership has not collected on $45,200 of its sales and still owes $38,700 on $170,000 of merchandise it purchased. There was no inventory on hand at the end of the year. The partnership paid $27,100 in salaries. The partners invested $41,000 in the business and $25,000 was borrowed on a five-year note. The partnership paid $2,250 in interest that was the amount owed for the year and paid $8,000 for a two-year insurance policy on the first day of business. Ignore income taxes. Compute the cash balance at the end of the first year for Tri Fecta.
Answer:
Cash balance = $225,150
Explanation:
Cash balance can be calculated by calculating the difference of cash inflows and cash outflows
Cash inflow
Investment $41,000
Borrowed $25,000
Cash collection(w) $327,800
Total Collection $393,800
Less:
Cash outflow
Merchandise(w) $131,300
Salaries paid $27,100
Interest paid $2,250
Insurance paid $8,000
Total cash paid $168,650
Cash Balance = Total Collection - Total Cash paid
Cash balance = $393,800 - $168,650
Cash balance = $225,150
Working
Cash collection = The partnership has not collected on $45,200 of its sales
Cash collection = Sales - 45,200
Cash collection = $373,000 - $45,200
Cash collection = $327,800
Merchandise = Tri Fecta still owes $38,700 on $170,000 of merchandise it purchased
Merchandise = $170,000 - $38,700
Merchandise = $131,300
Toyota will bring hybrid electric automobiles to market next year priced at $27 comma 000 (this includes a $6 comma 750 federal tax credit). At $1.89 per gallon of gasoline, it will take 11 years to recoup the difference in price between a base model Toyota Camry and its four-cylinder gasoline-only counterpart. The price difference is $4 comma 180. If the hybrid vehicle is driven for 15 years, what is the internal rate of return on the extra investment in the hybrid?
Answer:
4.15%
Explanation:
In order to determine the annual saving we must divide the extra cost of the hybrid by the amount of years it takes to recoup our investment.
annual savings = $4,180 / 11 years = $380 per year
our initial investment = -$4,180
since we are going to use the car during 15 years, then we have 15 positive cash flows of $380
using a financial calculator or excel spreadsheet, the internal rate of return (IRR) on our investment = 4.15%
A consumer values a car at $30,000 and a producer values the same car at $20,000. What amount of tax will result in unconsummated transaction
The question is incomplete:
A consumer values a car at $30,000 and a producer values the same car at $20,000. If the transaction is completed at $24,000, what level of sales tax will result in unconsummated transaction?
a. 0%
b. 25%
c. 20%
d. 40%
Answer:
d. 40%
Explanation:
The unconsummated transaction would occur when the price that the customer has to pay is higher than the value that he gave to the car. According to that, the answer would be the tax that would increase the final price to more than $30,000:
0%: $24,000
25%: 24,000*1.25= $30,000
20%: 24,000*1.20= $28,800
40%: 24,000*1.40= $33,600
The answer is that the amount of tax will result in an unconsummated transaction is 40%.
Q 7.34: At the end of a shift, the sales clerk turned over $21,476.38 in cash, checks, and credit card receipts to the cashier. When the supervisor looked at the cash register tape for that shift, the tape stated that the sales clerk had sold $21,478.23 in merchandise. What should the company do as a result of this difference
Answer:
A cash shortage of $1.85 has occurred. The sales clerk must have taken away more in tips than she should.
The company can ask the sales clerk to refund the sum of $1.85 shortage provided it allows the sales clerk also to take away overages. If not, the shortage can be taken from the overtages, if any.
Explanation:
In handling cash, shortages and overages occur. The best policy is to prevent such shortfall and excess in cash handling as they can lead to other problems. But, where the shortages and overages are tolerable, the company should accommodate them by creating clear company policies about the issues. Policies provide guides to employees so that they know what they are ordinarily expected to do.

Swing Co. has 9% annual coupon bonds that are callable and have 18 years left until maturity. The bonds have a par value of $1,000, and their current market price is $1,130.35. However, Swing Co. may call the bonds in eight years at a call price of $1,060. What are the YTM and the yield to call (YTC) on Swing Co.’s bonds?
Answer:
YTM = 7.77%
YTC = 7.62%
Explanation:
YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]
YTM = {90 + [(1,000 - 1,130.35)/18]} / [(1,000 + 1,130.35)/2]
YTM = 82.758333 / 1,065.175 = 0.07769 = 7.77%
YTC = {coupon + [(call value - market value)/n]} / [(call value + market value)/2]
YTC = {90 + [(1,060 - 1,130.35)/8]} / [(1,000 + 1,130.35)/2]
YTC = 81.20625 / 1,065.175 = 0.07623 = 7.62%

Interest rate = 11%
It is assumed that Buhao Construction pays no taxes
EBIT = $130,000
Debit = $220,000
Interest Expense = $24,200
Net Income = $195,800 ($220,000 - 24,200)
Debit = $420,000
Interest Expense = $46,200
Net Income = $173,800 ($220,000 - 46,200)
b) Debt-to-Equity Ratio of Buhao Construction is the relationship in ratio terms between debts and equity of the company. It shows the percentage of debts over the stockholders' equity.
c) EPS or Earnings per share shows the net income of Buhao Construction that can be attributed to each share. Stockholders use this measure to learn the profits that are generated for each share by the company during the period. A high EPS indicates that the business is profitable for stockholders.
Gingrich Corporation issued $2,000,000 in bonds on January 1, 2020. The bonds have a coupon rate of 1.5% and pay interest semi-annually on July 1st and January 1st. The bonds have a 10 year term. The market rate at the issue date is 3.9%. What amount of interest expense will be recorded on July 1, 2020 (the first interest payment)
Answer:
$31,310.35
Explanation:
Face value = 2,000,000
Semiannual interest = 2,000,000 *0.015 * 6/12= 15,000
Semiannual yield = 3.9*6/12= 1.95%
Semiannual months = 10*2= 20
Issue price =[PVA 1.95%,20 * Interest] + [PVF 1.95%,20 * Face value]
Issue price = [16.43061*15,000]+ [ .67960* 2,000,000]
Issue price = 246459.10+ 1,359,200
Issue price = $1,605,659.10
The amount of interest expense to be recorded on July 1, 2020 (the first interest payment = Issued price * Semi annual yield
= $1,605,659.10 * 1.95%
=$1,605,659.10 * 1.95%
=$31,310.35
Thus, the amount of $31,310.35 will be recorded as the interest expense on July 1, 2020

Its desired ROI per unit is $31. Compute the markup percentage using absorption-cost pricing.
Answer:
Mark- up = 26.05%
Explanation:
Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e.g machine hours, labour hours e.t.c. Units are valued using full cost per unit
Full cost per unit= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + variable manufacturing overhead + fixed manufacturing overhead
Note that the selling and administrative expenses are period cost which are not to be considered as production cost, hence they are excluded.
Full cost per unit= 34 + 27 +15 +43 = 119
ROI per unit/profit per unit = 31
Mark- up under absorption costing is profit expressed as a percentage of of the full cost.
Mark- up = 31/119 × 100 = 26.05%
Mark- up = 26.05%
Which of the following is NOT an option for remedying a cost disadvantage associated with activities performed by forward channel allies (wholesale distributors and retail dealers)?
a. Change to a more economical distribution strategy such as putting more emphasis on cheaper distribution channels (perhaps direct sales via the Internet) or perhaps integrating forward into company-owned retail outlets
b. Enhance differentiation through activities such as cooperative advertising) at the forward end of the value chain
c. Pressure distributors/dealers and other forward-channel allies to reduce their costs and markups
d. Insisting on across-the-board cost cuts in all value chain activities—those performed by suppliers, those performed in- house, and those performed by distributors/dealers
e. Collaborate with forward channel allies to identify win-win opportunities to reduce costs
Answer: d. Insisting on across-the-board cost cuts in all value chain activities—those performed by suppliers, those performed in- house, and those performed by distributors/dealers
Explanation:
The cost disadvantage is from the forward channel allies and not an across the board problem which involves all value chain activities. As such, the solution should be garnered towards the forward channel allies.
Insisting on cuts in areas that could be already functioning efficiently could lead to a loss of that efficiency.
Insisting on across-the-board cost cuts in all value chain activities is therefore not an option for remedying a cost disadvantage associated with activities performed by forward channel allies.
