Answer:
$80,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount that Marquis should report as a gain from the debt restructuring in its 2021 income statement
Gain from the debt restructuring=$300,000 + ($300,000 x 10%) - $250,000
Gain from the debt restructuring=$300,000+$30,000-$250,000
Gain from the debt restructuring = $80,000
Therefore amount that Marquis should report as a gain from the debt restructuring in its 2021 income statement will be $80,000

A perpetuity pays $170 per year and interest rates are 8.2 percent. How much would its value change if interest rates increased to 9.7 percent
Answer:
$320.59 decrease
Explanation:
The computation of the change in the value is shown below:
As we know that
The Value of perpetuity is
= Annual inflows ÷ interest rate
Current value is
= $170 ÷ 0.082
= $2,073.17
And,
New value is
= $170 ÷ 0.097
= $1,752.58
Now change in value is
= $2,073.17 - $1,752.58
= $320.59 decrease

Determine the breakeven point in sales dollars. 2. Determine the required sales in dollars to earn a before-tax profit of $9,152,500. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.) 3. What is the breakeven point in sales dollars if the variable expenses increases by 9%
Answer:
Please see attached
Explanation:
• Break even point in sales dollars $22,000,000
• Required sales in dollars $48,150,000
• Break even point in sales dollars $34,010,600
See as attached, detailed solution to the questions above.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales $44,000,000
Variable expenses $ 28,600,000
Fixed expenses 7,700,000
To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 7,700,000 / [(44,000,000 - 28,600,000)/44,000,000]
Break-even point (dollars)= $22,000,000
Now, we incorporate the desired profit of $9,152,500
Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= (7,700,000 + 9,152,500) /0.35
Break-even point (dollars)= $48,150,000
Finally, the new break-even point in dollars:
Total variable cost= 28,600,000*1.09= 31,174,000
Break-even point (dollars)= 7,700,000 / [(44,000,000 - 31,174,000) / 44,000,000]
Break-even point (dollars)= 7,700,000 / 0.2915
Break-even point (dollars)= $26,415,094.34

Future value of $450 per year for 6 years at 5%: $ 3,213.90
Future value of $200 per year for 6 years at 0%: $
Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
The formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity given as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)
Where,
FV = Future value of the amount =?
M = Annuity payment
r = Annual interest rate
n = number of periods years
This formula is now applied as follows:
a. $900 per year for 12 years at 10%. $ 19,245.85
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $900
r = 10%, or 0.10
n = 12
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $900 * (((1 + 0.10)^12 - 1) / 0.10)
FV = $900 * 21.38428376721
FV = $19,245.855390489
Rounding the nearest cent, we have:
FV = 19,245.86
b. $450 per year for 6 years at 5%. $ 3,060.86
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $450
r = 5%, or 0.05
n = 6
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $450 * (((1 + 0.05)^6 - 1) / 0.05)
FV = $450 * 6.8019128125
FV = $3,060.860765625
Rounding the nearest cent, we have:
FV = $3,060.86
c. $200 per year for 6 years at 0%. $
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $200
r = 0%, or 0
n = 6
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $200 * (((1 + 0)^6 - 1) / 0)
FV = $200 * ((1^6 - 1) / 0)
FV = $200 * ((1 - 1) / 0)
FV = $200 * (0 / 0)
FV = $200 * 0
FV = $0
d. Rework parts a, b, and c assuming they are annuities due.
The formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Annuity Due is given as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) * (1 + r) ................................. (2)
Where,
FV = Future value
M = Annuity payment
r = Annual interest rate
n = number of periods years
This formula is now applied as follows:
d-1. Future value of $900 per year for 12 years at 10%: $ 21,170.43
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $900
r = 10%, or 0.10
n = 12
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
FV = $900 * (((1 + 0.10)^12 - 1) / 0.10) * (1 + 0.10)
FV = $900 * 21.38428376721 * 1.10
FV = $2,1170.4409295379
Rounding the nearest cent, we have:
FV = $2,1170.44
d-2. Future value of $450 per year for 6 years at 5%: $ 3,213.90
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $450
r = 5%, or 0.05
n = 6
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
FV = $450 * (((1 + 0.05)^6 - 1) / 0.05) * (1 + 0.05)
FV = $450 * 6.8019128125 * 1.05
FV = $3,213.90380390625
Rounding the nearest cent, we have:
FV = $3,213.90
d-3. Future value of $200 per year for 6 years at 0%: $
Therefore, we have:
FV = ?
M = $200
r = 0%, or 0
n = 6
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
FV = $200 * (((1 + 0)^6 - 1) / 0) * (1 + 0)
FV = $200 * ((1^6 - 1) / 0) * 1
FV = $200 * ((1 - 1) / 0) * 1
FV = $200 * (0 / 0) * 1
FV = $200 * 0 * 1
FV = $0
During the year, TRC Corporation has the following inventory transactions. Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Total Cost Jan. 1 Beginning inventory 60 $ 52 $ 3,120 Apr. 7 Purchase 140 54 7,560 Jul. 16 Purchase 210 57 11,970 Oct. 6 Purchase 120 58 6,960 530 $ 29,610 For the entire year, the company sells 450 units of inventory for $70 each. Exercise 6-4A Part 1 Required: 1. Using FIFO, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit.
Answer:
Ending inventory = $3,440; Cost of goods sold = $24,370; Sales revenue = $31,500; and Gross profit = $7,130.
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the represented question with the sorted data.
Explanation to the answer is now presented as follows:
Note: the attached excel for the calculation of calculation of Cost of goods available for sale, Cost of goods sold, and Ending inventory using FIFO.
First In, First Out (FIFO) can be described as an inventory accounting method in which inventory items that bought first are sold first, while the one that are bought last are the ones that are sold last.
In the attached excel file, since the inventory purchased on Oct. 6 is the one bought last, the number of unit of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 which are sold is calculated as follows:
by deducting the sum of the beginning
inventory and inventory purchased before Oct. 6 from the total inventory sold as follows:
Number of unit of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 that are sold = Total inventory sold – sum of the beginning inventory and inventory purchased before Oct. 6 = 450 - (60 + 140 + 210) = 4
The number of ending inventory is therefore calculated as follows:
Number of unit of ending inventory = Number of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 - Number of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 sold = 120 – 40 = 80
Sales revenue = Number of unit units of inventory sold for the entire year * Selling price per unit = 450 * $70 = $31,500
From the attached excel file, we have:
Cost of goods sold = $24,370
Ending inventory = $3,440
Therefore, we have:
Gross profit = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold = $31,500 - $24,370 = $7,130

Use the Gordon growth model formula to compute the price of a stock that will pay a $5 dividend per share next year and the dividend is expected to stay at $5 forever. Assume 5% cost of equity. The price of the stock today is $______
Answer:
the price of the stock today is $100
Explanation:
The computation of the price of the stock today is shown below:
Given that
D1 = 5
Growth Rate = 0%
Cost of Equity = 5%
Now the price of the stock today is
= D1 ÷ Cost of Equity
= $5 ÷ 5%
= $100
Hence, the price of the stock today is $100

examples when demand may have got out of a hand?
Answer:
Recall, that we represent economic laws and theory using models; in this case we can use a demand schedule or a demand curve to illustrate the Law of Demand. The demand schedule shows the combinations of price and quantity demanded of apples in a table format. The graphical representation of the demand schedule is called the demand curve
When graphing the demand curve, price goes on the vertical axis and quantity demanded goes on the horizontal axis. A helpful hint when labeling the axes is to remember that since P is a tall letter, it goes on the vertical axis. Another hint when graphing the demand curve is to remember that demand descends.
The demand curve reflects our marginal benefit and thus our willingness to pay for additional amounts of a good. It makes sense that our marginal benefit, or willingness to pay for a good, would decline as we consume additional units because we get less additional satisfaction from each successive unit consumed. For example, at lunch time you decide to buy pizza by-the-piece. You'd be willing to pay a lot for that first piece to satisfy your hunger. But what about the second piece? Perhaps a little less. If we keep considering each additional piece, we might ask what the 3rd, 4th or 5th piece is worth to you. By that point, you'd be willing to pay less, perhaps much less. The law of demand and our models illustrate this behavior.

Southern Imports is an all-equity firm with a beta of 1.32. The firm is considering a new project that entails less risk than its current operations and thus management feels that the firm's beta should be lowered by .18 when assigning a discount rate to this project. The market rate of return is 9.4 percent and the risk-free rate is 2.8 percent. What discount rate should be assigned to this project
Answer:
The answer is "10.32%".
Explanation:
The actual beta firm =1.32
if new beta reduced by 1.8
beta firm= 1.14(1.32-1.8)
market return= 9.4%
risk-free return=2.8%
formula:
[tex]\to \text{Discount rate= risk} +beta \times (return-risk)}[/tex]
[tex]=2.8+1.14(9.4-2.8)\\\\=10.32%[/tex]
To what three different audiences might you have to give a presentation? How would the presentation differ for each? Which one would be the most challeng- ing for you?
Answer:
Please see explanation below.
Explanation:
°To what three different audiences might you have to give a presentation.
Answer:
• Senior manager
• Project manager
• Team leader.
° How would the presentation differ for each.
• Senior manager. The senior manager will be presented with existing IT structures in a brief manner. In addition to being given the short description of the previous IT system, a short explanation of the newly built and improvement on these existing systems will as well be presented to the senior manager.
• Project manager. A project manager would be presented with detailed description of the project. This is because the project manager must have first knowledge of the whole project and will be held accountable for the success or failure of the project. He would also be giving reports to the senior managers.
• Team leader. The details of the current process as the project progresses will be shared with the team leader.
° Which one will be the most challenging for you.
The most challenging for me will be the project manager because he would have to be presented with a well detailed and thorough description of the whole project. More so, further details of the cost expended on the system will be shared with the project manager.
Ramon had AGI of $165,000 in 2020. He is considering making a charitable contribution this year to the American Heart Association, a qualified charitable organization. Determine the current allowable charitable contribution deduction in each of the following independent situations, and indicate the treatment for any amount that is not deductible currently. Identify any planning ideas to minimize Ramon's tax liability.
Answer:
the situations are missing, so I looked for similar questions:
a. A cash gift of $68,500.
In the current year, Ramon may deduct $68,500 since his charitable contribution is limited to $165,000.
b. A gift of OakCo stock worth $68,500 on the contribution date. Ramon had acquired the stock as an investment two years ago at a cost of $61,650.
The stock's value for determining the contribution is $68,500 (fair market value). The deduction for 2020 is $49,500 (30% of AGI). The remaining $19,000 for years.
c. A gift of a painting worth $68,500 that Ramon purchased three years ago for $61,650. The charity has indicated that it would sell the painting to generate cash to fund medical research.
The contribution is valued at $61,650 (the charity will sell the painting immediately). The amount deductible in the current year is $61,650.
Explanation:
The charitable contribution limit was increased to 100% of AGI for 2020 by the CARES Act (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act).
Companies, the military, the government, and nonprofit organizations can operate because they have determined the levels of authority and reporting structure for their organizations. What is the name given to this line of authority
Answer:
Chain of command.
Explanation:
Chain of command is been used in the description of operation flow pattern in companies, government, universities and in many organisations which aid in a better reporting relationship. This report is said to set records straight and also puts every individual in a category in this chart organization. Also a chain of command is established so that everyone knows whom they should report to and what responsibilities are expected at their level. A chain of command enforces responsibility and accountability.

Interest on investments 290 ⇒ operating activity
Sale of land 190 ⇒ investing activity
Sale of Rowdy's common stock 780 ⇒ financing activity
Issuance of debt securities 2,900 ⇒ financing activity
Interest on debt $ 390 ⇒ operating activity
Income tax 170 ⇒ operating activity
Debt principal reduction 2,400 ⇒ financing activity
Purchase of equipment 5,800 ⇒ investing activity
Purchase of inventory 1,900 ⇒ operating activity

Suppose you are interested in obtaining a mortgage loan for $250,000 in order to purchase your principal residence. Your lender has suggested that you might be interested in taking an FHA loan. In order to do so, you must pay an additional up-front mortgage insurance premium (UFMIP) of 1.0% of the mortgage balance. If the interest rate on the fully amortizing mortgage loan is 5% and the term is 30 years, what is your monthly mortgage payment assuming the UFMIP is financed
Answer:
$1,355.47
Explanation:
if you are going to finance the up-front mortgage insurance premium, then the total principal of the loan will increase by 1%, so it will be = $250,000 x 1.01 = $252,500. It is normal to finance UFMIP payments since they are additional closing costs and the whole purpose of FHA loans is to allow more people to be able to buy a house.
we can use the present value of an annuity formula to determine the monthly payment.
monthly payment = principal / PV annuity factor
principal = $252,500PV annuity factor = 186.2816monthly payment = $252,500 / 186.2816 = $1,355.474722 ≈ $1,355.47
I prepared an amortization schedule in order to check the answer. At the end the final balance is $3.83, but that is because you have to round to the nearest cent. If the payment is rounded to $1,355.48, the the balance is -$4.50.

Which of these is an acceptable less hazardous method of cleaning than solvents?
[You Chose] Using disposable wipesUsing a dishwasherUsing a water hoseMechanical cleaning
Answer:
I guess that this depends on what you want to clean, but my choice is
using a dishwasherE.g. if you are a mechanic and you need to clean auto parts (which are dirty and greasy), then a hot soap washer is very useful. A hot soap washer is basically a dishwasher that works with hot pressurized water. Generally, detergent is much less hazardous than solvents. This method applies to all the objects that can be moved into the sink in order to be washed.
If you want to clean things at home, the same applies. The least hazardous cleaning method is using hot water and detergent.
A pressurized water hose may be a solution to certain issues, e.g. clean bird poop on top of a car or a sidewalk. If you can mechanically clean something (use a broom or vacuum cleaner), then there is no reason why you would need a solvent. Using disposable wipes only increases the amount of waste that you generate.
Answer:
The correct alternative to cleaning parts beside just using solvents, would be Mechanical Cleaning.
You join the accounting department of a major tech firm after graduation and are asked to assist in preparing end of year adjusting entries to prepare the firm’s financial statements for the end of the fiscal year. One major item you discover is a large part of the firm’s compensation expense is for stock grants and restricted stock units (RSUs). You are unsure how to account for these and so turn to the codification for guidance. What is the accounting for these forms of compensation and how are they presented on the financial statements?
Answer and Explanation:
Stock based compensation: stock based compensation which is non cash expense is charged as operating expenses to operating income as stipulated in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718. After a year, the equity account is credited and cash is debited
Restricted stock units: contra equity is debited and common stock is credited. Part of the shares after vesting and recognition as income is charged and withheld for taxes
Suppose that real GDP grew more in Country A than in Country B last year.
a. Country A must have a higher standard of living than country B.
b. Country A's worker productivity must have grown faster than country B's.
c. Both of the above are correct.
d. None of the above are correct.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
The standard of living is calculated as real GDP / population. Even though the real GDP of country A grew faster than country B, country A's population might be higher than country B's making its standard of living lower.
To make a conclusion that the growth of country A's worker productivity grew faster, it must be assumed that population grew at the same rate in both countries

Answer: C. Debit Jen Rogers, Capital and credit Jen Rogers, Withdrawals for $15,000
Explanation:
The options do not match the question. Correct answer is posted.
When closing the Withdrawal account at the end of the period, the withdrawals need to be accounted for from the capital invested by the investor because the withdrawals would reduce the capital balance.
To do this the Capital account should be debited to signify that it is reducing. The opposing entry therefore will be to credit the Withdrawals account.

Explanation:
The maintenance expense (paid at the end of the year) on a machine, with 6 years of useful life, is expected to be (in constant dollars of year 0) $5,000 during the first year and to increase (in constant dollars) $500 each year for the following five years. The average inflation rate for the next 6 years is calculated to be 3%. What is the equivalent equal annual maintenance cost (in actual dollars) for the machinery if the interest rate is 8%
Answer: $1387.5
Explanation:
Given data:
Useful life of the machine = 6years
Inflation for the 6years period = 3%
Interest rate = 8%.
Cost of maintenance = $5000
Yearly increments = $500 for five years.
Solution:
Total cost of maintenance for five years
= cost of maintenance + yearly increments x 5
= $5000 + $500(5)
= $5000 + $2500
= $7500.
Interest rate on the machinery = 8%
= 0.08 x $7500
= $600
Inflation rate
= 0.03 x 7500
= $225
Equal yearly maintenance cost
= $7500 + $600 + $225/ 6
= $8325/6
= $1387.5

Receivables are valued based on their ________.
a. fair value
b. estimated amount collectible
c. lower-of-cost-or-market value
d. historical cost
Answer:
b. estimated amount collectible
Explanation:
In Financial accounting, Receivables are also known as Account Receivable. Receivables are considered to be a current asset because it is the payment a business firm would receive from its customers for goods purchased or services taken on credit. Also, accounts receivable are recorded in the current assets section of the balance sheet because they add value to a business firm.
Generally, current assets are considered to be liquid because they are listed on the balance sheet in the order (descending) in which they are expected to turn or be converted to cash within a relatively short term period.
Hence, receivables are valued based on their estimated amount collectible from customers for the goods and services taken.

Novak Corp. developed the following information about its inventories in applying the lower of cost or market (LCM) basis in valuing inventories: Product Cost Market
A $139000 $146000
B 98000 93000
C 195000 198000
If Novak applies the LCM basis, the value of the inventory reported on the balance sheet would be:________
a. $442000
b. $432000
c. $437000
d. $427000
Answer: $427,000
Explanation:
Based on the Generally Accepted Accounting principles, to solve this question, the inventory have to be recorded based on the lower cost or net realizable value. This will therefore be:
A = $139,000
B = $93,000
C = $195,000
The value of the inventory reported on the balance sheet would be:
= $139,000 + $93,000 + $195,000
= $427,000
Paula has sales that qualify to be reported on the installment basis. In year 2, installment sales were $40,000 with a cost of $30,000. In year 3, installment sales were $50,000 with a cost of $25,000. Collections in year 2 were in the amount of $30,000. Collections in year 3 were $10,000 on the year 2 sales and $30,000 on the year 3 sales. How much deferred gross profit exists as of the end of year 2
Answer: $2500
Explanation:
Gross profit is gotten when costs are subtracted from sales. Deferred gross profit is the cash that hasn't been gotten by a business.
The percentage on gross profit percentage will be calculated as:
= ($40000-$30000)/$40000 × 100
= $10,000/$40,000 × 100
= 0.25 × 100
= 25%
Deffered gross profit will now be calculated by multiplying the gross profit percentage by the cash to be cash to be collected. This will be:
=$10000 × 25%
= $2500
The deferred gross profit that exists as of the end of year 2 is $2500

The sticky-price theory of the short-run aggregate supply curve says that if the price level rises by 5% while firms were expecting it to rise by 2%, then some firms with high menu costs will have:________.
Answer:
to keep their prices the same
Explanation:
Remember, having a higher Menu cost implies that such a firm would suffer more if it adjusted its prices.
So the sticky-price theory makes the assumption that a firm that notices an increase in the prices of their products would keep their prices low out of fear that doing so would result in losses for the firm if demand changes negatively.
A share of Lash Inc.'s common stock just paid a dividend of $2.10. If the expected long-run growth rate for this stock is 5%, and if investors' required rate of return is 18.5%, what is the stock price
Answer:
P0 = $16.333333333 rounded off to $16.33
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
D0 * (1+g) is dividend expected for the next period g is the growth rate r is the required rate of return
P0 = 2.1 * (1+0.05) / (0.185 - 0.05)
P0 = $16.333333333 rounded off to $16.33
Explain the digestion process of a complex carbohydrate by arranging the statements in the order that they occur.
a. The enzyme, amylase. which is present in saliva breaks potysaccharide chains into disaccharides.
b. Other enzymes in the small intestine further break the potysaccharide into monosaccharides.
c. You take a bite and to chew the complex carbohydrate into smaller pieces.
d. Amylase is deactivated by the low pH in the stomach.
e. Monosaccharides are absorbed through the intestinal wad.
Answer:
The digestion process of a complex carbohydrate:
c. You take a bite and to chew the complex carbohydrate into smaller pieces.
a. The enzyme, amylase. which is present in saliva breaks polysaccharide chains into disaccharides.
b. Other enzymes in the small intestine further break the polysaccharide into monosaccharides.
d. Amylase is deactivated by the low pH in the stomach.
e. Monosaccharides are absorbed through the intestinal wad.
Explanation:
The monosaccharides are produced last in the digestion process described above because it is the absorption of energy (glucose) into the body. It is at this stage that carbohydrate is metabolized within cells to create fuel. Then in the presence of oxygen, this important glucose breaks down into carbon dioxide and water, and finally energy is released as a byproduct.
