Starbucks (Croatia). Starbucks opened its first store in Zagreb, Croatia, in October 2010. In Zagreb, the price of a tall vanilla latte is 25.70 Croatian kunas (kn or HRK). In New York City, the price of a tall vanilla latte is $2.65. The exchange rate between Croatian kunas and U.S. dollars is kn5.6288.
(a) According to purchasing power parity, is the Croatian kuna overvalued or undervalued?
(b) By what percent is the kuna overvalued or undervalued?
Answer:
a. Overvalued
b. 72.3% overvalued
Explanation:
a. Purchasing power parity when held, shows that prices of a specific good is the same across the world.
Price in New York = $2.65
Price in Zagreb = kn25.70
$1 = 25.70/2.65
$1 = kn9.6981
According to PPP, Croatian Kuna is Overvalued as the exchange rate per the Vanilla Latte is higher than the official exchange rate.
b. = [tex]\frac{9.6981 - 5.6288}{5.6288.}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4.0693}{5.6288}[/tex]
= 72.3% overvalued

Refer to the financial statements of Burnaby Mountain Trading Company. The firm's asset turnover ratio for 2017 is _________. (Please keep in mind that when a ratio involves both income statement and balance sheet numbers, the balance sheet numbers for the beginning and end of the year must be averaged.)
Answer:
1.69
Explanation:
asset turnover ratio = net sales / average assets
I looked up the missing information and found the following:
total assets year 1 = $4,000,000
total assets year 2 = $4,300,000
net sales year 2 = $7,000,000
average assets = ($4,000,000 + $4,300,000) / 2 = $4,150,000
asset turnover ratio = $7,000,000 / $4,150,000 = 1.6867 = 1.69
The higher the asset turnover ratio, the more efficient a company is. Therefore, a higher asset turnover ratio is always better although there is no fixed parameter.
On the first day of 2016, Holthausen COmpany acquired the assets of Leftwich Company including several intangible assests. These include a patent on Ledtwicj's primary product, a device called a plentiscope. Leftwich carried the patent on its book for $1,500, but Holthausen believes that the fair value is $200,000. The patent expires in seven years, but companies can be expected to develop competing patents within three years. Holthausen believes that, with expected technlogical improvements, the product is marketable for a t least 20 years.
The registration of the trademark for the Leftwich name is scheduled to expire in 15 years. However, the Leftwich brand name, which Holthausen believes is worth $500,000, could be applied to related products for many years beyond that.
As part of the acquisition, Leftwich's principal researcher left the company. As part of the acquisition, he signed a five-year noncompetition agreement that prevents him from developing competing products. Holthausen paid the scientist $300,000 to sign the agreement.
a. What amount should be capitalized for each of teh identifiable intangible assets?
b. What amount of amortization expense should Holthausen record in 2016 for each asset?
Answer:
Holthausen Company and Leftwich Company
Intangible Assets:
a) Amount to be capitalized:
1) Patent: $200,000
2) Trademark: $500,000
3) Non-competition Agreement: $300,000
b) Amount of Amortization Expense for 2016:
1) Patent: $200,000/7 years = $28,571.43
2) Trademark: $500,000/15 years = $33,333,33
3) Non-competition Agreement: $300,000/5 = $60,000
Explanation:
The fair values of the "plentiscope" patent and Leftwich's branded trademark should be capitalized as intangible assets, while the cost of the non-competition agreement with Leftwich's principal researcher should be capitalized.
For the amortization of the Leftwich-connected intangibles, we have adopted the straight-line method, in the absence of any prescribed method. The patent expiration in 7 years was used as the basis for its useful life, despite Holthausen belief that the product could be marketable for at least 20 years.
The trademark was amortized over its remaining useful life of 15 years as given, while the non-competition agreement was amortized for 5 years when the agreement remains effective.
Suppose a society begins by producing 3 units of X and 4 units of Y and then alters production to 4 units of X and 4 units of Y. If the quantity and quality of resources and the technology being used remain unchanged, then: Group of answer choices
Answer:
This situation means that resources were not being efficiently used.
If society managed to produce 1 more unit of X with the same resources and technology, this means that some resources were idle in the past, which causes inefficiency.
This also means that the combination 3 units of X and 4 units of Y is a point inside the PPF. However, we do not know if the combination 4 units of X and 4 units of Y is a point inside the PPF, or on the PPF, because there could be some other combination that could be even more efficient (for example 5 units of both X and Y with the same resources and technology).

Calculate the number of days' sales in receivables at that date.Calculate Wiper's debt ratio and debt/equity ratio at December 31, 2020 and 2019.Calculate the times interest earned ratio for 2020 and 2019.
Answer:
Stock Price is $54.50
Cash Dividend per share $1.50
Dividend Yield 2.75%
Dividend payout ratio 27.46%
Days Sales in Receivable 38 days
Debt Ratio 68.29%
Debt/equity ratio 1.57
Interest earned ratio 3.16 times
Explanation:
1. Market price = Price to earning ratio * Earning per share
Earnings per share = Net Income / Average number of shares outstanding
Earnings per share : 233 / 42.7 = 5.45
Market price per share : 10 * 5.45 = 54.50
2. Dividend per share : Dividend paid / number of shares outstanding
DPS : 64 / 42.7 = 1.50
3. Dividend Yield : Dividend per share / Stock Price share
Dividend Yield : 1.50 / 54.50
4. Dividend Payout ratio : Total Dividend paid / Net Income
Dividend Payout ratio : 64 / 233 = 27.46%
5. Day Receivale : (Average Receivable / Sales ) * 365
Days Receivables : 322/ 3064 * 365 = 38 days
6. Debt Ratio : Total Liabilities / Total Assets
Debt ratio : 2194 / 3215 = 68.29%
7. Debt/ equity ratio : Debt / Equity
Debt/Equity : 1603 / 1021 = 1.57
8. Interest Earned Ratio : Earning before Interest and Tax / Interest Expense
Interest Earned Ratio : 310 / 98 = 3.16 times
Computer equipment was acquired at the beginning of the year at a cost of $57,000 that has an estimated residual value of $9,000 and an estimated useful life of five years. Determine the second-year depreciation using the straight-line method.
Answer:
$9,600
Explanation:
When you use the straight line depreciation method, the depreciation expense is the same for every year. The only difference can result if the asset was purchased during the year, and the depreciation for year 1 would only be partial and proportionate to the number of months of use.
In this case, the depreciation expense per year = (purchase price - residual value) / useful life = ($57,000 - $9,000) / 5 = $48,000 / 5 = $9,600 per year (the depreciation expense is the same for all the five years).
yle Co. has $1.1 million of debt, $3 million of preferred stock, and $1.2 million of common equity. What would be its weight on common equity
Answer:
0.22
Explanation:
Calculation for the weight on common equity
Using this formula
Weight of Common equity = Common Equity/(Debt + Preferred Equity+Common Equity)
Where,
Common Equity=1.2
Debt =1.1
Preferred Equity=3
Let plug in the formula
Weight of common equity = 1.2/(1.1+ 3+ 1.2)
Weight of common equity=1.2/5.3
Weight of Common Equity=0.22
Therefore the weight on common equity will be 0.22
The manufacturer Mike and Ike, the fruit-flavored chewy candies, has changed its packaging and developed contests all geared to 12- to 17-year-olds. What type of market segmentation identifies its market
Answer:
Demographic
Explanation:
A market is segmented so as to narrow down a large market into a narrow base, or a target market. This helps the organization to be better focused on providing its services to these target groups of people. A market can be segmented on the basis of demography, psychography, behavior, and geography. Demography deals more with statistical data of the population being studied and would typically include; age, gender, race, income levels, etc.
So, when the manufacturer Mike and Ike changes its packaging and developed contests all geared to 12-17-years-old, he has segmented the market according to demography and age.

Dan would like to save $1,500,000 by the time he retires in 30 years and believes he can earn an annual return of 8%. How much does he need to invest in each of the following years to achieve his goal?
a. $13,241
b. $133,239
c. $10,727
d. $52,450
Answer:
$13,241
Explanation:
From the data we were given in the question:
future value = fv = $1,500,000
time = t = 30 year
rate = r = 8%
We are required to find out How much does he need to invest to achieve his goal
solution
future value = principal ( 1+ rate)^(t-1) / rate
1500000 = principal (1 + .08)^(30-1)/ 0.08
we make principal, p, subject of the formula.
principal = 1500000 / ( (1 + .08)^(30-1)/ 0.08 )
Principal = 1,500,000 / 113.2832
principal = 13241.15
so Dan needs to invest $13241

On April 30, Victor Services had an Accounts Receivable balance of $37,800. During the month of May, total credits to Accounts Receivable were $73,600 from customer payments. The May 31 Accounts Receivable balance was $31,000. What was the amount of credit sales during May?
Answer:
The answer is $66,800
Explanation:
Beginning accounts receivable balance ---$37,800
Ending accounts receivable balance -----$31,000
Total credits to Accounts Receivable------ $73,600
Credit sales = (Total credits to Accounts Receivable + Ending accounts receivable balance) - Beginning accounts receivable balance
($73,600 + $31,000) - $37,800
$104,600 - $37,800
= $66,800

An account is today credited with its annual interest thereby bringing the accountbalance to $12,490. The interest rate is 5.70% compounded annually. You plan tomake annual withdrawals of $1,450 each. The first withdrawal is in exactly one yearand the last in exactly 9 years. Find the account balance immediately after the lastwithdrawal.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the account balance be B .
Equating the present value of money at 5.7 % discount
12490 = 1450 ( PVIFA , 5.7 , 9 ) + B ( PVIF , 5.7 , 9 )
= 1450 x 6.8938 + .6072 x B
= 9996.01 + .6072B
.6072 B = 2494
B = 4107
"The following per unit cost information is available: direct materials $10, direct labor $4, variable manufacturing overhead $3, fixed manufacturing overhead $10, variable selling and administrative expenses $1, and fixed selling and administrative expenses $8. Using a 25% markup percentage on total per unit cost, compute the target selling price."
Answer:
The target selling price =$45
Explanation:
The target selling price is the sum of the total unit cost plus 25% of the the unit cost
The target selling price = Total per unit cost + (25% × total unit cost)
The total unit cost is the sum of all the costs involved making the product available to the consumer.
The sum of direct material cost , labour cost variable manufacturing, fixed manufacturing overhead, variable selling and administrative expenses and fixed selling and administrative expenses.
The target selling price would be determined using te steps below:
Step 1: Calculate the unit cost
Total unit cost = 10 + 4 + 3 + 10 + 1 + 8 = 36
Total unit cost = $36
Step 2: Calculate the target selling price
Target selling price = Unit cost + (25%× unit cost)
The target selling price = 36 + (25% × 36) = $45
The target selling price =$45
XYZ Corporation’s bonds have 14 years remaining to maturity. Interest is paid annually, the bonds have a $1,000 par value, and the coupon interest rate is 10%. The bonds sell at a price of $950. What is their yield to maturity? Show your work.
Answer:
The answer is 10.71%
Explanation:
N(Number of periods) = 14 years
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = ?
PV(present value or market price) = $950
PMT( coupon payment) = $100 ( 10 percent x $1,000)
FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 14; PV= -950 ; PMT = 100; FV= $1,000; CPT I/Y= 10.71
Therefore, the yield to maturity of the bond is 10.71%
A company issues a ten-year bond at par with a coupon rate of 6.4% paid semi-annually. The YTM at the beginning of the third year of the bond (8 years left to maturity) is 9.1%. What is the new price of the bond?
Answer:
[tex]\mathbf{current \ price \ of \ the \ bond= \$848.78}[/tex]
Explanation:
The current price of the bond can be calculated by using the formula:

The Polishing Department of Bonita Company has the following production and manufacturing cost data for September. Materials are entered at the beginning of the process. Production: Beginning inventory 1,580 units that are 100% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs; units started during the period are 41,200; ending inventory of 6,600 units 10% complete as to conversion costs.
Manufacturing costs: Beginning inventory costs, comprised of $20,600 of materials and $14,674 of conversion costs; materials costs added in Polishing during the month, $186,883; labor and overhead applied in Polishing during the month, $127,600 and $257,440, respectively.
Required:
a. Compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs for the month of September.
b. Compute the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month.
c. Determine the costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.
Answer:
a. materials = 42,780 and conversion costs = 36,840
b. materials = $4.85 and conversion costs = $10.85
c. units transferred out = $568,026 and in process = $39,171
Explanation:
First calculate the number of units completed and transferred out of the Polishing Department.
Units completed and transferred out = 1,580 + 41,200 - 6,600
= 36,180
Calculation of equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs for the month of September
materials
Units completed and transferred out (36,180 × 100%) = 36,180
Units of Ending Work In Process (6,600 × 100%) = 6,600
Total equivalent units of production for materials = 42,780
conversion costs
Units completed and transferred out (36,180 × 100%) = 36,180
Units of Ending Work In Process (6,600 × 10%) = 660
Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs = 36,840
Calculate the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month
Unit costs for materials = Total Cost for materials / Total equivalent units of production for materials
= ( $20,600 + $186,883) / 42,780
= $4.85
Unit costs for conversion costs = Total Cost for conversion costs / Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs
= ( $14,674 + $127,600 + $257,440) / 36,840
= $10.85
Total unit cost = $4.85 + $10.85
= $15.70
Calculate the costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.
Cost units transferred out = Number of Units Transferred out × Total Unit Cost
= 36,180 × $15.70
= $568,026
Cost of Units In Process Calculation :
Material Cost ( 6,600 × $4.85) = $32,010
Conversion Costs ( 660 × $10.85) = $7,161
Total Cost of Units In Process = $39,171

A company's Weighted Average Cost of Capital can enable it know the calibre of risk to accept from new project because it shows the business risk of funding current business operations.
If a project will bring more risk to the company, the WACC should be adjusted so that the company will get a fair rate of return from the new project.

The comparative cash flow statements from Sears and Wal-Mart are presented above. Amounts presented are in millions. Review both statements considering what you've learned in this chapter about the cash flow statement. Answer the following questions: When analyzing a company's cash flow statement, which section of the statement (operating, investing or financing) do you believe is the best predictor of a company's future profitability? Why? Which company do you believe is healthier based on the cash flow statements presented? Provide at least two specific examples from the statements. Your initial post is due four (4) days prior to the discussion due date or points will be deducted from your discussion score. Please review the discussion board requirements above.
The complete question is attached.
Answer:
Sears Holding Corporation and Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.
1. The section of the cash flow statement that is the best predictor of a company's future profitability is the Operating Activities Section. The reason is that the operating activities section shows the net cash from operating activities or the core business activities of the entity. A business entity's profitability is not determined by subsidiary activities like financing and investing activities. But it is ascertained by reviewing its operating activities which also define the mission of the business and show the strategies it can deploy to attain its goals.
2. Walmart Stores, Inc. is by far healthier than Sears Holdings Corporation, at least based on the January 30, 2016 statements of cash flows. For instance, Walmart Stores recorded a Net Cash Flow from operations in the sum of $27,389 million while Sears recorded a negative Net Cash Flow from operations in the sum of $2,167 million. Again, from the operating activities sections, one can see that Walmart Stores, Inc. was able to make a net income before adjustments of $15,080 million, whereas Sears Holding Corporation performed abysmally poor by incurring a net loss of $1,128 million.
Explanation:
The Sears and Walmart's statements of cash flows are one of the three main financial statements prepared and presented by Sears Holding Corporation or Walmart Stores, Inc. to its stockholders and the general public to show financial information about its activities. Specifically, the statements of cash flows for Sears and Walmart show the flow of cash under three main activity headings: operating, financing, and investing.
Two methods can be used by Sears and Walmart to prepare the statement. They include the indirect method, which starts from the net income, and the direct method, which shows the cash inflows and outflows for each cash flow item for Sears and Walmart.
Exercise 16-18 Indigo Inc. presented the following data. Net income$2,410,000 Preferred stock: 52,000 shares outstanding, $100 par, 8% cumulative, not convertible5,200,000 Common stock: Shares outstanding 1/1729,600 Issued for cash, 5/1296,400 Acquired treasury stock for cash, 8/1152,400 2-for-1 stock split, 10/1 Compute earnings per share.
Answer:
EPS = $11.74 per share
Explanation:
earnings per share (EPS) = (net income - preferred dividends) / weighted average shares outstanding
net income = $2,410,000
preferred dividends = 52,000 x $100 x 8% = $416,000
weighted average shares outstanding:
beginning common stocks (29,600 x 257/274) x 2 = 55,527 + (55,527 x 91/365) = 69,370.72new stocks issued (96,400 x 142/274) x 2 = 99,918.25 + (99,918.25 x 91/365) = 124,819.38treasury stocks (-52,400 x 51/274) x 2 = -19,506.57 + (-19,506.57 x 91/365) = -24,369.85total = 169,820.25 ≈ 169,820 weighted stocksEPS = ($2,410,000 - $416,000) / 169,820 stocks = $11.74
Since the dates are a little confusing, I assumed 1/17 for beginning common stocks, 5/12 for issuance of new stocks, 8/11 for acquiring treasury stocks, and 10/1 for stock split. From January 1 to October 1, there are 274 days on a regular 365 day calendar year.
A plant asset is acquired by a business on January 2, 20X6, for $10,000. The asset's estimated residual value is $2,000 and it's estimated useful life is 5 years. Management chooses to use straight-line depreciation. On January 2. 20X8. the asset is sold for $5,000. The entry to record the sale has what effect on the financial statements? a. Assets decrease, expenses increase, and net income and owners' equity decrease. b. Assets decrease and owners' equity and expenses both increase. c. Has no effect on the financial statements if the journal entry is in balance. d. Assets increase, expenses decrease, and net income and owners' equity increase.
Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
From the calculation below, it is clearly seen that Assets are being decreased and expenses are increased therefore Option A is correct.
Workings
Depreciation expense = (cost - residual value) / useful life
Depreciation expense = 10,000 - 2,000 / 5
Depreciation expense = $1600
Accumulated depreication = depreciation x 2 years -= $3,200
Carrying value = 10,000 - 3,200
Carrying value = $6,800
Disposal = $5,000
Loss on disposal = $1,800
