Answer:
a. -$10,200
b. $40,800
Explanation:
The computation of realized loss is shown below:-
Realized loss = Sales price - Adjusted basis
= $40,800 - ($102,000 × 200 ÷ 400)
= $40,800 - $51,000
= -$10,200
b. The computation of newly acquired shares is shown below:-
Basis for new acquired stock = Purchase price + Disallowed loss
= $30,600 + $10,200
= $40,800
We simply applied the above formula

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

Doug and Sue Click file a joint tax return and decide to itemize their deductions. The Clicks' income for the year consists of $89,000 in salary, $1,500 interest income, and $700 long-term capital loss. The Clicks' expenses for the year consist of $1,450 investment interest expense. Assuming that the Clicks' marginal tax rate is 35 percent, what is the amount of their investment interest expense deduction for the year
Answer:
$1,450
Explanation:
Interest Income = $1,500
Investment Interest expenses = $1,450
Allowed deduction limit investment interest is subject to investment income. So $1,450 is allowed as deduction
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%
By how much does GDP rise in each of the fol- lowing scenarios? Explain. (a) A computer company buys parts from a local distributor for $1 million, assembles the parts, and sells the resulting computers for $2 million. (b) A real estate agent sells a house for $200,000 that the previous owners had bought 10 years earlier for $100,000. The agent earns a commission of $6,000. (c) During a recession, the government raises unemployment benefits by $100 million. (d) A new U.S. airline purchases and imports $50 million worth of airplanes from the European company Airbus.
Answer:
a. GDP increases by $2 million. Only final good and services are included in GDP. the parts used in making the computer represents intermediate goods. Intermediate goods are not included in the calculation of GDP.
b. GDP would increase by $6000. Only goods produced in the current year are included in GDP. The house wasn't built in the current year so it would not be included in GDP. So, only the agent's fees would be included
c. 0 Transfer payments are not included in GDP
d.0. Imports would increases and net export would decrease. Also, business spending would increase. Taking these two effects together, there would be no change in GDP
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
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports imports
When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.
Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:
services not rendered to oneself
Activities not reported to the government
illegal activities
sale or purchase of used products
sale or purchase of intermediate products
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
. If a T-bill promises to repay $10,000 in one year and the market interest rate is 6 percent, how much will the bill sell for in the market?
Answer:
market price = $9,433.96
Explanation:
a T-bill is basically a zero coupon bond, and the formula we can use to calculate its market price is:
market price = face value / (1 + i)ⁿ
face value (value at maturity) = $10,000i = 6%n = 1market price = $10,000 / (1 + 6%) = $10,000 / 1.06 = $9,433.96
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.
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 %

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%
Cellular Access Inc., is a cellular telephone service provider that reported net operating profit after tax (or unlevered net profit) of $250 million for the most recent fiscal year. The firm had depreciation expenses of $100 million, capital expenditures of $200 million, no interest expense, and an income tax rate of 30%. Working capital increased by $10 million. Calculate the free cash flow for Cellular Access for the most recent fiscal year.
Answer: $65 million
Explanation:
The Free Cash Flow will be calculated as:
= EBIT(1-t) + Dep & Amortisation- Changes in Working Capital- Capital Expenditure
= 250(1-30%) + 100 - 200 - 10
= 250(0.7) + 100 - 200 - 10
= 175 + 100 - 210
= $65 million
Your grandpa doesn't trust "young 'uns" so you are set to inherit a $1,000,000 trust fund on your 50th birthday. Your Grandpa also doesn't like banks so he has buried the cash somewhere on his 40-acre farm in a location that will be revealed to you by his lawyer since Grandpa will not be around when you turn 50. If you could possibly get your hands on it now (when you are 20), you could put it in a bank at 6% annual interest. If you were able to dig up the money now, how much would you have when you turn 50?
Answer:
FV= $5,743,491.17
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Present value (PV)= $1,000,000
Number of periods (n)= 30 years
Annual interest= 6% = 0.06
To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 1,000,000*(1.06^30)
FV= $5,743,491.17
A bank offers 8.00% on savings accounts. What is the effective annual rate if interest is compounded semi-annually?Percentage Round to: 4 decimal places (Example: 9.2434%, % sign required. Will accept decimal format rounded to 6 decimal places (ex: 0.092434))
Answer:
Effective Annual Rate = 8.1600%
Explanation:
The effective annual rate the interest rate that is adjusted for compounding over a given period of time. It is given by the formula:
[tex]r = (1+\frac{i}{n})^n -1\\where:\\r = effective\ annual\ rate\\i = nominal\ interest\ rate\ = 8.00\% = 0.08 \\n = number\ of\ compounding\ periods\ per\ year\ = 2\ (semi-annually)[/tex]
[tex]r = (1+\frac{0.08}{2})^2 -1\\r = (1\ +\ 0.04)^2 - 1\\r = (1.04)^2 - 1\\r = 1.0816 - 1\\r = 0.0816\\r = 8.1600 \%[/tex]
Wyle Co. has $3.9 million of debt, $1 million of preferred stock, and $2.1 million of common equity. What would be its weight on preferred stock
Answer:
Weight of Preferred stock = 0.1428571429 or 14.28571429% rounded off to 14.29%
Explanation:
The capital structure of a business is made up of at least one or at most all of the following components namely Debt, Preferred Stock and Common Equity. The ratio in which each of these components form the capital structure might differ from business to business. The weightage of each component in the capital structure can be calculated by dividing the market value of each component by the sum of the market value of all the components.
Weight of a component = Market Value of component / Sum of market value of all components
Weight of Preferred stock = 1,000,000 / (3,900,000 + 1,000,000 + 2,100,000)
Weight of Preferred stock = 0.1428571429 or 14.28571429% rounded off to 14.29%

December 31, 2025, bonds redeemed at a loss
Dr Bonds payable 550,000
Dr Loss on retirement of debt 11,000
Cr Cash 561,000
james Lawson's Bed and Breakfast, in a small historic Mississippi town, must decide how to subdivide (remodel) the large old home that will become its inn. 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).
A company produces a single product. Variable production costs are $12.90 per unit and variable selling and administrative expenses are $3.90 per unit. Fixed manufacturing overhead totals $45,000 and fixed selling and administration expenses total $49,000. Assuming a beginning inventory of zero, production of 4,900 units and sales of 4,050 units, the dollar value of the ending inventory under variable costing would be:
Answer:
$10,965
Explanation:
Computation for the dollar value of the ending inventory under variable costing
First step is to find the Units in ending inventory
Using this formula
Units in ending inventory = Units in beginning inventory + Units produced−Units sold
Let plug in the formula
Units in ending inventory= 0 units + 4,900 units−4,050 units
Units in ending inventory = 850 units
Last step is to find the Value of ending inventory under variable costing
Using this formula
Value of ending inventory under variable costing = Unit in ending inventory × Variable production cost
Let plug in the formula
Value of ending inventory under variable costing= 850 units × $12.90 per unit
Value of ending inventory under variable costing = $10,965
Therefore the dollar value of the ending inventory under variable costing would be $10,965

It was its human detector for seeing confusion through the fog because you can respond until others use it. Only a tiny portion of future executives look in and peek over the horizon towards their businesses from the outside to collect signs that could be bringers of shift.
It is also known as the psychological or mental preparedness throughout the external environment that can "see around corners" and spot potentially important phenomena, inconsistencies, and oddities before the others do. To see through all the fog of doubt, it is a radar. so, that you can act first, that's why the choice c is correct.
[Same investments as the prior question] Suppose two local start-ups are raising funding by issuing shares of equity at $10,000 per share. One start-up is a whiskey distillery; the other is a beer brewery. You estimate the expected returns on your investment to be 50% over five years in both cases. You also believe that the likelihood of being paid out $20,000 per share is greater with the distillery than with the brewery. Suppose now that you hold a portfolio of many other risky assets, and that this would be your N 1 investment. Which investment do you prefer to make, the distillery or the brewery
Answer:
you should purchase the brewery's stock
Explanation:
First of all, as investors we should always try to maximize our returns while avoiding risks. It is really hard to balance both, but we must compare stocks to see which may represent a higher gain while posing the lesser or same risk.
Initial investment in each = $10,000 (equal for both)expected returns over 5 years = $5,000 (equal for both)but there is a higher possibility of the distillery's stock being more valuable, and that makes a difference.Both stocks seem equally risky, but they are not. When you calculate expected returns, you multiply the possible returns by their probability. I'm not sure how they calculated the expected returns of the above stocks, but the following can help you understand my point:
stock B return probability expected return
great 100% 25% 25%
normal 50% 50% 25%
bad 0% 25% 0%
total 100% 50%
stock D return probability expected return
great 100% 30% 30%
normal 50% 40% 20%
bad 0% 30% 0%
total 100% 50%
Both stocks have the same expected return, but stock B is less risky because the chance of being a bad investment is lower.
Hlleym762 Inc. is a merchandising company. Last month the company's cost of goods sold was $62,600. The company's beginning merchandise inventory was $16,600 and its ending merchandise inventory was $25,200. What was the total amount of the company's merchandise purchases for the month?
Answer:
Purchases = $71200
Explanation:
Using the Cost of Goods Section from the Income statement, we can calculate the Purchases of merchandise for the month. The cost of Goods sold is calculated as follows,
Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Inventory + Purchases - Closing Inventory
As we already have values for Cost of Goods Sold, Opening inventory and closing inventory, we can plug the values in the above formula to calculate the value of purchases.
62600 = 16600 + Purchases - 25200
62600 + 25200 - 16600 = Purchases
Purchases = $71200

On April 1, 2020, the City of Southern Ponds issued $5,000,000 in 4% general obligation, tax supported bonds at 101 for the purpose of constructing a new police station. The premium was transferred to a debt service fund. A total of $4,990,000 was used to construct the police station, which was completed before December 31, 2020, the end of the fiscal year. The remaining funds were transferred to the debt service fund. The bonds were dated April 1, 2020, and paid interest on October 1 and April 1. The first of 20 equal annual principal payments of $250,000 is due April 1, 2021. In addition to reporting Bonds Payable and (unamortized) Bond Premium in the government-wide Statement of Net Position, how would the bond sale be reported
Answer:
$100,000
$350,000
Explanation:
The bond sale be reported as debt service expenditures for 2020 and 2021 can be calculated as follows
The Amount would be reported as debt service expenditures for 2020
= $5,000,000 x 4% x 1/2 year
= $100,000
The amount would be reported as debt service expenditures for 2021
= $5,000,000 x 4% + $250,000
= $350,000
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
How are the four areas of operations control interrelated?
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

Sherman, Inc. manufactures chainsaws that sell for $65. Each chainsaw uses $14 in direct materials and $9 in direct labor per unit. Sherman has two activities: Machining, which is applied at the rate of $4 per machine hour, and Finishing, which is applied at the rate of $20 per batch. This month, Sherman made 225 chainsaws, using 1,125 machine hours in 45 batches. What is the gross profit for one chainsaw
Answer: $18
Explanation:
Based on the information,
Sales revenue = $65 × 225 = $14625
Cost of goods sold = (45 × $20) + (1125 × $4) + (225 × $14) + (225 × $9)
= $900 + $4500 + $3150 + $2025
= $10575
Gross profit = Sales revenue - Cost
= $14625 - $10575
= $4050
The gross profit for one chainsaw will be:
= $4050/225
= $18
