Health and Wealth Company is financed entirely by common stock that is priced to offer a 12 percent expected return. If the company repurchases 20 percent of the common stock and substitutes an equal value of debt yielding 8 percent, what is the expected return on the common stock after refinancing
Answer: 13%
Explanation:
By substituting 20% of debt for debt yielding 8%, the company now has 20% financing from debt and 80% from equity.
The expected return on common stock after refinancing can be calculated by;
Return after refinancing = Return before refinancing + [tex]\frac{Debt}{Equity}[/tex](return before refinancing - Debt yield)
= 12% + [tex]\frac{0.2}{0.8} (0.12 - 0.08)[/tex]
= 13%
Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a(n):
Answer:
Reversionary interest
Explanation:
If Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a reversionary interest.
A reversionary interest can be defined as a property law (deed) which states that when a property such as a land transfer is used on a clause; “for so long as” or “on condition that."
Hence, once the interest of the benefactor comes to an end, the property reverts back to its original owner (grantor). It also gives the grantor's next of kin, successor or heir the power or right to take the property back in the future if promises are broken or the agreement comes to an end.
This ultimately implies that, if a property stated in the deed is not used or used, for certain purposes.
In this scenario, Larry owns a reversionary interest because he gifts a land to the school district, but in the deed he stated "for so long as the land is used for a school."

Q3) At an output level of 45,000 units, you calculate that the degree of operating leverage is 2.79. If output rises to 48,000 units, what will the percentage change in operating cash flow be
Answer: 18.6%
Explanation:
Degree of operating leverage = % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output
% change in Output
= [tex]\frac{48,000 - 45,000}{45,000}[/tex]
= 6.7%
Degree of operating leverage = % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output
2.79 = % change in Operating cash flow/ 6.7%
% change in Operating cash flow = 2.79 * 6.7%
% change in Operating cash flow = 18.6%

Answer:
A)
A 1,000 x $26.00 = $ 26,000
B 500 x $30.60 = $ 15,300
C 900 x $ 19.00 = $ 17,100
D 900 x $ 19.80 = $ 17,820
E 800 x $26.10 = $ 20,880
Total $ 97,100
B)
102,240
C)
Write-down at NRV 1,060 debit
Inventory 1,060 credit
Explanation:
We have to calculate the net realizable value(NRV) for each item and compare with the historic cost:
Units// Cost /// NRV
A 1,000 $ 26 $ 32(1 - 0.1) = 28.8
B 500 $ 31 $ 34(1-0.1) = 30.60
C 900 $ 19 $ 24(1-0.1) = 21.60
D 900 $ 23 $ 22(1-0.1) = 19.80
E 800 $ 30 $ 29(1-0.1) = 26.10
We will always pick the lowest to valuate the goods:
A 1,000 x $26.00 = $ 26,000
B 500 x $30.60 = $ 15,300
C 900 x $ 19.00 = $ 17,100
D 900 x $ 19.80 = $ 17,820
E 800 x $26.10 = $ 20,880
Total $ 97,100
Total Cost:
1,000 x 26
+ 500 x 31
+ 900 x 19
+ 900 x 23
+ 800 x 30
103,300
Total NRV
1,000 x 28.80
+ 500 x 30.60
+ 900 x 21.60
+ 900 x 19.80
+ 800 x 26.10
102,240
Comparing at the entire inventory level we get the following adjustment
103,300 - 102,240 = 1,060

Although appealing to more refined tastes, art as a collectible has not always performed so profitably. During 2003, an auction house sold a sculpture at auction for a price of $10,371,500. Unfortunately for the previous owner, he had purchased it in 1999 at a price of $12,497,500.
What was his annual rate of return on this sculpture? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Annual rate of return %
Answer:
-4.25%
Explanation:
purchase price in 1999 = $12,497,500
purchase price in 2003 = $10,371,500
annual rate of return = {[($10,371,500 - $12,497,500) / $12,497,500] / (2003 - 1999)} x 100 = (-0.170114 / 4) x 100 = -4.25%
the annual rate of return refers to how much money you win or loss with an investment during a year. In this case, the investor lost $2,126,000 in 4 years, which resulted in a total loss of 17.01% for the whole period.

ent "Flounder" Dorfman is a full-time student at Faber College. He is a senior and a member of Delta Tau Chai fraternity. The Deltas awarded Kent a $35,000 scholarship called "The Dean Wormer Double Secret Probation Memorial Scholarship". Kent pays the following amounts, out of his scholarship, to attend Faber College: Tuition - $26,000; Required lab fees - $300; Required books and supplies - $1,000; Room and board - $7,500. Part 1 of 6: Does the $26,000 of the scholarship that was paid for tuition have to be included in Flounder's taxable income for federal income tax purposes?
Answer:
Kent "Flounder" Dorfman
Scholarship from Delta Tau Chair Fraternity
The $26,000 will not be included in Flounder's taxable income for federal income tax purposes. It is a qualified scholarship expense. It is only the portion of $7,500 used for Room and board that is not a qualified scholarship expense.
Though it is required that the $35,000 be disclosed in form 1040. Qualified expenses like tuition, required lab fee, required books and supplies are tax-exempt, while Room and board and other non-required expenses are not qualified and therefore taxable.
Explanation:
S117(b)(2) of the IRS Code states the expenses that are qualified and tax-exempt if they are tuition-related.
When a qualified student, usually above 18 years and enrolled in post-secondary educational institution, receives a scholarship, the amount she uses to pay for tuition and other required expenses, which are generally payable by other students, are regarded as qualified expenses. Since they are qualified, they are also tax-exempt, meaning that taxes will not be paid on them, instead they will be deducted for tax purposes from the student's income. In the case of Kent, the tuition fee is not included in her taxable income for federal income tax purposes.
Chester Corp. is downsizing the size of their workforce by 10% (to the nearest person) next year from various strategic initiatives. How much will the company pay in separation costs if each worker receives $5,000 when separated?
Answer:
$293,500
Explanation:
The computation of the amount pay in separation cost is shown below:
As there are 587 employees
but 10% are downsized
So, separation cost is
= Current employees × downsized percentage × received amount by workers
= 587 employees × 10% × $5,000
= $293,500
We simply applied the above formula so that the amount pay by the company with respect to the separation cost could arrive

Scenario: Your direct supervisor is interested in a project you are currently working on, and they have asked to increase the scope to increase the department's goals. How would you respond if your supervisor was not the project sponsor?
ANSWER:
Take down his/her suggestions. The first thing is to show respect. Accept thoughts and contributions towards that project. Most times a project "sponsor" is not someone who is a professional in the field or discipline that the project is about.
If your direct supervisor has the idea of increasing the scope of the project, take note of his/her reasons and if they will truly bring the achievement of more departmental goals, then relay the idea of expansion to the project sponsor.
Answer:
At this point, the important thing is to remain calm and in control. Your supervisor, like everyone else, is likely to get confused and blame people for things that are not their fault, or even find fault that does not exist.
In that case, you should wait for him to finish speaking, ask for permission to speak and explain how you did your job and show how your supervisor is wrong about the conclusion he made. This must be done calmly and politely, always maintaining respect.

Answer:
Net income= $31,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 13,200
Sales= 54,120
Variable costs= $21,120
Fixed costs= $18,000
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= total contribution margin/number of units
Unitary contribution margin= (54,120 - 21,120) / 13,200
Unitary contribution margin= $2.5
Now, for 19,600 units:
Total contribution margin= 2.5*19,600= 49,000
Fixed costs= (18,000)
Net income= 31,000

A buyer and a seller enter into a real estate sales contract. Under the contract's terms, the buyer will pay the seller $500 a month for 10 years. The seller will continue to hold legal title, while the buyer will live in the home and pay all real estate taxes, insurance premiums, and regular upkeep costs. What kind of contract do the buyer and seller have
Answer: Land Sales Contract
Explanation:
Land Sales contract are a way to buy a property for people who would otherwise be unable to buy one because they were unable to get a mortgage or are running low in funds.
It works by the buyer paying the seller a certain amount of money for a period of time according to an agreement. During this period of payment, the seller continues to hold the legal rights to the property and then passes it to the buyer when they are finished paying. In this scenario therefore, the seller effectively plays the role of a mortgage bank.
A cafeteria serving line has a coffee urn from which customers serve themselves. Arrivals at the urn follow a Poisson distribution at the rate of 3.0 per minute. In serving themselves, customers take about 14 seconds, exponentially distributed. a. How many customers would you expect to see, on average, at the coffee urn? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: 3 customers.
Explanation:
Given the following :
Arrival rate of customers = 3 customers per minute
Service time = 14 seconds
Then if service time is 14 seconds, the service rate per minute will be 60/14 = 4.29 = 4 (nearest whole number)
Service rate = 4 customers per minute.
Number of customers at coffee urn(Nc) :
Nc = (arrival rate) /(service rate - arrival rate)
Nc = (3) / (4 - 3)
Nc = 3 / 1
Nc = 3
Therefore, average number of customers expected at coffee urn = 3

Consider Figure 9.2 on page 205 of our textbook. Suppose P0 is $10 and P1 is $11. Suppose a new firm with the same LRAC curve as the incumbent tries to break into the market by selling 4,000 units of output. Estimate from the graph what the new firm's average cost of producing output would be. If the incumbent continues to produce 6,000 units, how much output would be supplied to the market by the two firms? Estimate what would happen to the market price as a result of the supply of both the incumbent firm and the new entrant. Approximately how much profit would each firm earn ?
Answer:
The 10,000 units of output that will be supplied by the two firms to the market.
Profit that each firm would earn will be higher than previous.
Explanation:
The firm selling 4,000 units at the price of $10 per unit. If the output is increased to 6,000 units the price will increase to $11 per unit. If the new 6,000 units are produced along with the previous 4,000 units then the total output supplied by the two firms will be 10,000 units (6,000 + 4,000). The supply of goods in the market will increase so price will fall and the revenue for the firms will decline but they can benefit with sales volume and their profit can increase.
The 10,000 units of output will be supplied by the two firms to the market.
The profit that each firm would earn will be higher than the previous.
Calculation of the number of units and profits:Here the firm sells 4,000 units at the price of $10 per unit. And, in the case when the output is increased to 6,000 units the price will increase to $11 per unit.
And, In the case when the new 6,000 units are produced along with the previous 4,000 units so the total output supplied by the two firms will be 10,000 units.
The supply of goods in the market should increase due to which the price will fall and the revenue for the firms will decline however they can benefit with sales volume and their profit can increase.

The company estimates future uncollectible accounts. The company determines $14,000 of accounts receivable on January 31 are past due, and 30% of these accounts are estimated to be uncollectible. The remaining accounts receivable on January 31 are not past due, and 5% of these accounts are estimated to be uncollectible. (Hint: Use the January 31 accounts receivable balance calculated in the general ledger.) Record bad debts at the end of January.
Answer:
Bad debt expense = $4,690
Explanation:
Entry DEBIT CREDIT
Bad debt Expense $4,690
Allowance for doubtful debt $4,690
In Order to record bad debt expense, we need to go through some minor workings.
Workings
Receivables on January 31 past due = $14,000 x 30% = $4,200
Receivable not past due = ($14,000 x 70%) x5% = $490
Bad debt expense = Receivables on January 31 past due + Receivable not past due
Bad debt expense = $4,200 + $490
Bad debt expense = $4,690
Like a good economist, you calculated the opportunity cost of getting your college degree. Suppose that at your university, you will pay $10,000 each year for tuition, $2,500 each year for textbooks, and $12,000 per year for room and board. Before you left for college, your boss at your high-school job offered you a job paying $20,000 per year.
Assume that if you decided not to go to college, your parents would not let you live at home.
What is your opportunity cost for four years of college? $_______
Answer:
$130,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the opportunity cost for four years of college
The first step is to calculate for the cost of education per year
Using this formula
Cost of education per year =Tuition+Text book +Room and board
Let plug in the formula
Cost of education per year =$10,000+$2,500+$12,000
=$24,500
Second step is to calculate the return in a situation were we decided not to go to college
$20,000-$12,000=$8,000
The last step is to calculate for the opportunity cost for 4 years of college:
Using this formula
Opportunity cost =Cost of education per year+ Return * Numbers of year
Where,
Cost of education per year=$24,500
Return =$8,000
Numbers of years =4
Let plug in the Formula
Opportunity cost =($24,500+$8,000)*4
Opportunity cost =$32,500*4
Opportunity cost =$130,000
Therefore the opportunity cost for four years of college will be $130,000
