Answer:
Loss of gdp = 7.6%
Eliminate gdp loss = 121.6
Explanation:
According to Okun's law , 12% loss of gdp.
Natural rate of unemployment=5%
Cyclical unemployment = Actual unemployment - Rate of Unemployment
Cyclical unemployment = 8.8% - 5%
Cyclical unemployment =3.8%
Loss of gdp = 3.8%(2)
Loss of gdp = 7.6%
Loss of gdp = (7.6%(8,000)
Loss of gdp = 608
Spending multiplier = 1/(1 - mpc)
Spending multiplier = 1/(1 - 0.8)
Spending multiplier = 1/ 0.2
Spending multiplie = 5
So,
Eliminate gdp loss = 608/5
Eliminate gdp loss = 121.6
On October 1, 2020, Jackson Chemical was identified as a potentially responsible party by the Environmental Protection Agency. Jackson's management along with its counsel have concluded that it is probable that Jackson will be responsible for damages, and a reasonable estimate of these damages is $5,000,000. Jackson's insurance policy of $9,000,000 has a deductible clause of $500,000. How should Jackson Chemical report this information in its financial statements at December 31, 2020
Answer:
Jackson Chemical should report the $5,000,000 loss because we don't know if the insurance will actually pay out the policy.
Explanation:
Jackson chemical has to report $500,000 loss associated with the deductible would be accrued as liability in the company's financial statements at Dec 31, 2020 since it is probably that Jackson will be responsible for the damages.
$500,000 is the amount of the insurance policy's deductible Jackson will have to pay to receive the policy's benefits, which will cover the reasonably estimated damages.

Assume you purchase a Harley-Davidson Corporation bond that pays 5 percent or annual interest of $50 and has a face value of $1000. Also, assume new corporate bond issues of comparable quality are currently paying 6 percent. What is the approximate market value?
Answer:
$833.33
Explanation:
Annual Interest Paid = $50
Market Interest rate = 6%
The approximate market value = Annual interest paid / Market Interest rate
The approximate market value = $50 / 6%
The approximate market value = $50 / 0.06
The approximate market value = 833.3333333333333
The approximate market value = $833.33
Suppose the banking system has $40 billion in reserves. Also assume that there are no cash leakages or excess reserves. If the central bank lowers the required reserve ratio from 20 percent to 16 percent, the money supply will
Answer:
Money supply increases by $1.6 billion
Explanation:
The reserve ratio is defined as the amount of a bank's reserves that the central bank of a country expects banks to keep as cash and not lend out.
Reserve ratio is also called cash reserve ratio.
This requirement is put in place in case customers decide to make mass withdrawals.
Central banks tend to control cash supply by increasing or reducing the reserve ratio.
When money to be supplied as loans is to be increased, the reserve ratio reduces so that banks can use more of their reserves for lending rather than for cash withdrawals.
In this instance reserve ratio reduced from 20% to 16%.
That is a 4% reduction
This means 4% of the reserves is freed up for lending or money supply to the public
Extra money supply = 0.04 * 40 billion = $1.6 billion
Money supply increases by $1.6 billion
g Consider the income-expenditure model. Suppose that the marginal propensity to consume is equal to 0.8. A reduction in taxes of $100 billion will cause output to:
Answer:
increase by 400 billion dollars
Explanation:
marginal propensity to consume = mpc
tax multiplier = -mpc/1-mpc
from our question we were given mpc to be 0.8
-0.8/1-0.8
= -0.8/0.2
= -4
change in output = -4(-100)
= 400 billion dollars
for a $100 tax decrease, output will increase by $100 billion x 4
= $400 billion
Dr. Bob Jackson owns a parcel of land that a local farmer has offered to rent from Dr. Bob for the next 10 years. The farmer has offered to pay $20,000 today or an annuity of $3,200 at the end of each of the next 10 years. Which pay-ment method should Dr. Jackson accept if his required rate of return is 10 percent
Answer:
Dr. Jackson should accept the $20,000 paid today
Explanation:
you must analyse the present value of both payment options:
the present value of the $20,000 paid today is exactly $20,000the present value of the annuity = $3,200 x 6.1446 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 10 periods) = $19,662.72Since the present value of the immediate cash payment is higher than the annuity payment, Bob should choose that offer.
Exercise 17-5 Assigning costs using ABC LO P3 Xie Company identified the following activities, costs, and activity drivers for this year. The company manufactures two types of go-karts: Deluxe and Basic. Activity Expected Costs Expected Activity Handling materials $ 625,000 100,000 parts Inspecting product 900,000 1,500 batches Processing purchase orders 105,000 700 orders Paying suppliers 175,000 500 invoices Insuring the factory 300,000 40,000 square feet Designing packaging 75,000 2 models Assume that the following information is available for the company’s two products for the first quarter of this year. Deluxe Model Basic Model Production volume 10,000 units 30,000 units Parts required 20,000 parts 30,000 parts Batches made 250 batches 100 batches Purchase orders 50 orders 20 orders Invoices 50 invoices 10 invoices Space occupied 10,000 sq. ft. 7,000 sq. ft Models 1 model 1 model Required: Compute activity rates for each activity and assign overhead costs to each product model using activity-based costing (ABC). What is the overhead cost per unit of each model? (Round activity rate and average OH cost per unit answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activity rate for each activity:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Handling materials= 625,000/100,000= $6.25 per part
Inspecting product= 900,000/1,500= $600 per batch
Processing= 105,000/700= $150 per order
Paying suppliers= 175,000/500=$350 per invoice
Insuring the factory= 300,000/40,000= $7.5 per square feet
Designing packaging= 75,000/2= $37,500 per model
Now, we can allocate overhead to each model:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Deluxe:
Handling materials= 6.25*20,000= 125,000
Inspecting product= 600*250= 150,000
Processing= 150*50= 7,500
Paying suppliers= 350*50= 17,500
Insuring the factory= 7.5*10,000= 75,000
Designing packaging= 37,500*1= 37,500
Total allocated overhead= $412,500
Basic:
Handling materials= 6.25*30,000= 187,500
Inspecting product= 600*100= 160,000
Processing= 150*20= 3,000
Paying suppliers= 350*10= 3,500
Insuring the factory= 7.5*7,000= 52,500
Designing packaging= 37,500*1= 37,500
Total allocated overhead= $444,000
Finally, the unitary overhead:
Deluxe= 412,500/10,000= $41.25
Basic= 444,000/30,000= $14.8
Sheridan Company reports:
Cash provided by operating activities $ 329000
Cash used by investing activities 119000
Cash provided by financing activities 139000
Beginning cash balance 92000
What is Sheridan’s ending cash balance?
Answer: $441,000
Explanation:
The following can be deuced from the question:
Cash provided by operating activities = $329000
Cash used by investing activities = $119000
Cash provided by financing activities = $139000
Beginning cash balance = $92000
Sheridan’s ending cash balance will be:
= Beginning cash balance + cash provided by operating activities + cash provided by financing activities - cash used by operating activities
= $92000 + $329000 + $139000 - $119000
= $441,000

Mr. C made the following gifts: $12,000 to a university to pay tuition costs for his niece. An undeveloped tract of land to his sister that had an adjusted basis to Mr. C of $4,000 and a fair market value of $25,000. Various shares of stock to his wife that had an adjusted basis to Mr. C of $15,000 and a fair market value of $40,000. Mr. C did not consent to gift-splitting. What is the total amount of taxable gifts
Answer:
$10,000
Explanation:
Gifts are only taxed when their fair market value is higher than $15,000. Any gifts made to your spouse are not taxable. Gift taxes are calculated on a per person base, as long as they do not exceed the lifetime exemption (which is $11.58 million).
The tuition costs of her niece are not taxable since they are less than $12,000. The stocks given to his wife are not taxable either. The only taxable gift is the land given to his sister which had a FMV of $25,000. The taxable amount = $25,000 - $15,000 = $10,000

You will invest $25,000 in an ice cream shop your sister is starting. You expect to triple your investment in six years. What is the rate of return that you have in mind? (Rounded to the nearest percent.)
Answer:
r = 20.09%
Explanation:
we can use the future value formula to calculate the expected rate of return:
future value = present value x (1 + r)ⁿ
future value = $25,000 x 3 = $75,000present value = $25,000n = 6$75,000 = $25,000 x (1 + r)⁶
(1 + r)⁶ = $75,000 / $25,000 = 3
⁶√(1 + r)⁶ = ⁶√3
1 + r = 1.2009
r = 0.2009 = 20.09%

There are three alternatives: Option A would modernize all baths and combine rooms, leaving the inn with four suites, each suitable for two to four adults. Option B would modernize only the second floor; the results would be six suites, four for two to four adults, two for two adults only. Option C (the status quo option) leaves all walls intact. In this case, there are eight rooms available, but only two are suitable for four adults, and four rooms will not have private baths. Below are the details of profit and demand patterns that will accompany each option: Annual Profit under Various Demand Patterns Alternatives High p Average p A (modernize all) B (modernize 2nd) C (status quo) This exercise contains only part b. b) The option with the highest expected value for James Lawson's Bed and Breakfast is ▼ B C A , with an expected value of $ nothing (round your response to the nearest whole number).
Answer:
The numbers are missing, so I looked for a similar question (see attached image).
the expected value for option A (modernize everything) = (0.5 x $90,000) + (0.5 x $25,000) = $57,500the expected value for option B (modernize only second floor) = (0.4 x $80,000) + (0.6 x $70,000) = $74,000the expected value for option C (do nothing) = (0.3 x $60,000) + (0.7 x $33,000) = $41,100The option with the highest expected value is option B (modernize only second floor).
The expected return on the market portfolio is 12%, and the relevant risk-free rate is 4.2%. What is the equity premium?
Answer:
7.8%
Explanation:
The expected return on the market portfolio is 12 percent
The risk free rate is 4.2 percent
Therefore the equity premium can be calculated as follow
= expected return - risk free rate
= 12% - 4.2%
= 7.8%
Hence the equity premium is 7.8%
Cosi Company uses a job order costing system and allocates its overhead on the basis of direct labor costs. Cosi expects to incur $900,000 of overhead during the next period, and expects to use 60,000 labor hours at a cost of $10.00 per hour. What is Cosi Company's overhead application rate
Answer:
150%
Explanation:
Calculation for overhead application rate
First step is to calculate the Total Direct labor cost
Total Direct Labor Cost = 60,000 hours * $10/hr Total Direct Labor Cost= $600,000
Last step is to calculate Overhead application rate
Overhead application rate = $900,000/$600,000
Overhead application rate = 1.5*100
Overhead application rate=150%
Therefore Cosi Company's overhead application rate is 150%

Bernie Madoff invites you to invest $1,000 in his fund now and be guaranteed at least $1,500 in 4 years. What is the effective rate that Mr. Madoff is promising you?
Answer: 10.67%
Explanation:
Mr Madoff is offering to grow the current value of $1,000 to a future value of $1,500 in 4 years.
This is a future value problem.
1,500 = 1,000 * ( 1 + interest) ^ 4 years
( 1 + interest) ^ 4 = 1,500/1,000
( 1 + interest) = 4√(1,500/1,000)
1 + interest = 1.1066819197
Interest = 1.1066819197 - 1
= 10.67%

Your pro forma income statement shows sales of , cost of goods sold as , depreciation expense of , and taxes of due to a tax rate of . What are your pro forma earnings? What is your pro forma free cash flow?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Particulars Amount($)
Sales 1,033,000
Less:- Cost of goods sold (503,000)
Gross Profit 530,000
Less:- Depreciation (103,000)
EBIT 427,000
Taxes [40% of 427000] (170,800)
Earnings 256,200
1]Proforma earnings = $256200
2]Proforma free cash flow = Earnings + Depreciation
= $256,200 + $103,000
= $359,200
The proforma earnings is $256200 , and the pro-forma free cash flow is the value of earnings before depreciation. Hence the value is $359,200.
Pro Forma income statementwe are provided with the information about:
Sales = 1,033,000
Cost of goods sold = 503,000
Gross Profit = 530,000
Depreciation = 103,000
We need to find, the net profit,
Net Profit = Gross Profit - Depriciation
Net profit = 530000 - 103000 = 427000
Earnings is the amount after deduction of Tax rate (40%)
= 40% of 427000 = 170,800
Earnings = 427000 - 170800 = 256,200
Therefore the Proforma Earning is 256,200, Proforma free cash flow = Earnings + Depreciation
= $256,200 + $103,000
= $359,200

On December 31, 2019 a company’s Accounts Receivable balance was $440,000. During the year the company recorded credit sales of $770,000 and cash collections of $820,000. In addition, the company wrote off $16,000 of accounts as uncollectible and reinstated and collected on an accounts receivable that was previously written off that totaled $3,000. The company uses the allowance method to account for its receivables.What is the effect of the accounting equation if the company fails to make the adjusting entry to record bad debt expense?
Answer: Option C - Assets are Overstated; No effects on liabilities: Equity is Overstated
Explanation:
When Bad debts are recorded, they will reduce the Accounts Receivable account because less money will be expected from debtors. Accounts Receivable is an asset account so it will be Overstated if bad debts are not recorded.
Equity will also be overstated because bad debts is an expense that is sent to the Income statement. If this expense is not deducted, the net income will be larger than it should be and when added to Equity it will overstate it.
Farris Corporation, which has only one product, has provided the following data concerning its most recent month of operations: Selling price $ 78 Units in beginning inventory 0 Units produced 8,800 Units sold 8,700 Units in ending inventory 100 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $ 18 Direct labor $ 10 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 4 Variable selling and administrative expense $ 5 Fixed costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $255,200 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 87,000 What is the unit product cost for the month under absorption costing
Answer:
$61
Explanation:
The computation of unit product cost for the month under absorption costing is shown below:-
Unit product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Variable Manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing cost
= $18 + $10 + $4 + ($255,200 ÷ 8,800)
= $61
Therefore for computing the unit product cost for the month under absorption costing we simply applied the above formula.
A new manufacturing machine is expected to cost $278,000, have an eight-year life, and a $30,000 salvage value. The machine will yield an annual incremental after-tax income of $35,000 after deducting the straight-line depreciation. Compute the accounting rate of return for the investment.
Answer:
22.7 %
Explanation:
Accounting rate of return = Average Profits / Average Investments × 100
Where,
Average Profit = Sum of Profits ÷ Number of Years
= $35,000
and
Average Investment = (Initial Investment + Salvage Value) ÷ 2
= ($278,000 + $30,000) ÷ 2
= $154,000
Therefore,
Accounting rate of return = $35,000 ÷ $154,000
= 22.7 %

Division A makes a part that it sells to customers outside of the company. Data concerning this part appear below: Selling price to outside customers $ 40 Variable cost per unit $ 30 Total fixed costs $ 10,000 Capacity in units 20,000 Division B of the same company would like to use the part manufactured by Division A in one of its products. Division B currently purchases a similar part made by an outside company for $38 per unit and would substitute the part made by Division A. Division B requires 5,000 units of the part each period. Division A has ample capacity to produce the units for Division B without any increase in fixed costs and without cutting into sales to outside customers. If Division A sells to Division B rather than to outside customers, the variable cost be unit would be $1 lower. What is the lowest acceptable transfer price Division A should accept
Answer:
Lower selling price= $29
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price to outside customers $40
Variable cost per unit $ 30
Total fixed costs $10,000
Capacity in units 20,000
The variable cost per unit would be $1 lower.
Because there is unused capacity, and it won't affect other sales. We will not take into account the fixed costs.
The lower selling price is the one that equals the unitary variable cost.
Unitary variable cost= 30 - 1= $29
Lower selling price= $29
A decreasing-cost industry is one in which: a. contraction of the industry will decrease unit costs. b. input prices fall or technology improves as the industry expands. c. the long-run supply curve is perfectly elastic. d. the long-run supply curve is upsloping.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
When we talk of a decreasing cost industry, we refer to an industry in which the expansion of the industry will lead to a decrease in the unit production cost.
So with respect to the question at hand , the correct answer is that the input prices will fall as industry expands
The case of a a technological improvement is expected to drive a decrease in the input prices for production in the expanding industry
