Answer: a. Ricardo. The change is not a valid amendment to his will
Explanation:
The state they are in does not recognize holographic wills. A holographic will is one that is handwritten by the testator (Scott) and is not signed in front of witnesses or notarized.
The first will by Scott was typed and signed in front of witnesses. It is therefore recognized by the state they are in. Scott makes the correction to the will with a pen (handwritten) and does not do so in the presence of witnesses so the correction makes it holographic.
This will not be recognized by the state and so the original will is the valid will and will see Ricardo recover the property.

Consider a stock with current year dividend equal to $2.00 per share. You believe the dividend will grow 15% per year for 10 years and 4% per year thereafter.The required equity rate of return (and your hurdle rate) is 10%. What is the fair price of the stock? Assuming the market price of the stock is $70, what is the expected return?
Answer:
a. Fair price of the stock = $79.82
b. The expected return is 7.29%
Explanation:
a. What is the fair price of the stock?
Note: See the attached file for the calculation of present values (PV) of dividends for year 1 to 10.
From the attached excel file, we have:
Previous year dividend in year 1 = Current year dividend = $2
Total of dividends from year 1 to year 10 = $25.74793130208810
Year 10 dividend = $8.09111547141582
Therefore, we have:
Year 11 dividend = Year 10 dividend * (100% + Dividend growth rate in year 11) = $8.09111547141582 * (100% + 4%) = $8.41476009027245
Share price at year 10 = Year 11 dividend / (Required equity rate of return - Perpetual dividend growth rate) = $8.41476009027245 / (10% - 4%) = $140.246001504541
PV of share price at year 10 = Price at year 10 / (100% + required equity rate of return)^Number of years = $140.246001504541 / (100% + 10%)^10 = $54.0709047493998
Therefore, we have:
Fair price of the stock = Total of dividends from year 1 to year 10 + PV of share price at year 10 = $25.74793130208810 + $54.0709047493998 = $79.82
b. Assuming the market price of the stock is $70, what is the expected return?
This can be calculated using the dividend discount model formula as follows:
P = D1 / (r - g) ............................ (1)
Where,
P = Market price of the stock = $70
D1 = Next dividend = Current dividend * (100% + Dividend growth rate in perpetuity) = $2 * (100% + 4%) = $2.30
r = Expected return = ?
g = Dividend growth rate in perpetuity = 4%, or 0.04
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for r, we have:
70 = 2.30 / (r - 0.04)
70(r - 0.04) = 2.30
70r - 2.80 = 2.30
70r = 2.30 + 2.80
70r = 5.10
r = 5.10 / 70
r = 0.0729, or 7.29%
Therefore, the expected return is 7.29%.

The balance in Accounts Receivable was $420,000 at 1/1 and $504,000 at 12/31. At 12/31/17, Black estimates that 5% of accounts receivable will prove to be uncollectible. What should Black report as its Allowance for Doubtful Accounts at 12/31/17
Answer:
$25,200
Explanation:
Calculation to determine What should Black report as its Allowance for Doubtful Accounts at 12/31/17
Using this formula
12/31/17 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts=12/31 Accounts Receivable Balance*Estimated Uncollectibles accounts receivable percentage
Let plug in the formula
12/31/17 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts=$504,000*5%
12/31/17 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts=$25,200
Therefore What Black should report as its Allowance for Doubtful Accounts at 12/31/17 is $25,200
When the general level of prices rises, the economy is experiencing ____.
On October 1, 2014, Balkan, Inc. accepted from another corporation a 1-year note receivable in the amount of $15,000, with an interest rate of 6%. On December 31, 2014, Balkan accrued the interest income earned to date. How did this accrual affect Balkan's financial statements
Answer:
Balkan, Inc
The accrual effects on Balkan's financial statements are:
1. Income Statement: The interest income is increased by $225.
2. Balance Sheet: The current assets (interests receivable) are increased by $225.
3. Statement of Cash Flows: The operating cash flow is reduced by $225.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Note receivable accepted on October 1, 2014 = $15,000
Interest rate on the note = 6%
Interest accrued on December 31, 2014 = $225 ($15,000 * 6% * 3/12)
Under the indirect method of preparing the Statement of Cash Flows, when a current asset increases, it signifies the use of funds (non-collection of funds).

g granted options on January 1, 2021, that permit executives to purchase 23 million of the company's $1 par common shares within the next eight years, but not before December 31, 2023 (the vesting date). The exercise price is the market price of the shares on the date of grant, $20 per share. The fair value of the options, estimated by an appropriate option pricing model, is $6 per option. No forfeitures are anticipated. The options are exercised on April 2, 2024, when the market price is $23 per share. By what amount will VF's shareholder's equity be increased when the options are exercised
Answer:
$460
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what amount will VF's shareholder's equity be increased when the options are exercised
First step is to calculate the fair value of award using this formula
Fair value of award=Fair value per option×Options granted
Let plug in the formula
Fair value of award=$138
Based on the above calculation the amount of $138 million total compensation will be expensed equally over the vesting period of 3 years thereby increasing the balance in the PAID-IN CAPITAL-STOCK OPTIONS ACCOUNT
Dr Cash $460
($20 exercise price × 23 million shares)
Dr Paid-in capital - stock options (account balance)138
(6*23)
Cr Common stock 23
(23 million shares at $1 par per share)
Cr Paid-in capital—excess of par (remainder)575
Now let calculate the Increase in shareholder's equity
Increase in shareholder's equity=$575 + $23 - $138
Increase in shareholder's equity= $460
Therefore The amount that VF's shareholder's equity will increased when the options are exercised is $460

Robinson spends all his income on mangos and bananas. Mangos cost $3 per pound. Robinson's marginal utility is 30 for the last pound of mangos purchased and 10 for the last pound of bananas. If Robinson maximizes his utility from consuming these goods, the price of bananas is
Answer:
$1 per pound
Explanation:
Marginal utility is defined as the additional satisfaction that a person gains from consumption of an additional unit of a product.
Since Robinson spends all of his money on mangoes and bananas his the marginal utility per price of each product will be equal.
This is called equi marginal utility (Gossens second law).
Marginal utility of mango ÷ price of mango = marginal utility of banana ÷ price of banana
30 ÷ 3 = 10 ÷ price of mango
10 = 10 ÷ price of mango
Cross multiply
Price of mango * 10 = 10
Price of mango = 10 ÷ 10 = $1 per pound
Suppose the exchange rate is such that 1 U.S. dollar equals 1 euro in New York and 0.9 euros in Paris. An arbitrageur would sell euros _____ a. in New York and buy U.S. dollars in Paris. b. in both Paris and New York at different prices. c. in New York while buying them in Paris. d. in Paris while buying them in New York. e. at the same price in both cities.
Answer: d. in Paris while buying them in New York.
Explanation:
An arbitrageur aims to make a profit by trading in different markets where prices are different.
To take advantage of this opportunity, the arbitrageur would sell Euros in Paris where they know they will be able to get more U.S. dollars because the dollar is weaker there.
Once they get more dollars in Paris than they would have gotten in New York, they will then take those dollars to new York where they will be able to buy more Euros than they sold because the dollar is now on par with the Euro.
Gain:
In Paris using 1 Euro they were able to buy = 1 / 0.9 = $1.11
In New York they bought back the 1 Euro for $1.
Gain = 1.11 - 1 = $0.11
oetz Corporation has gathered the following data on a proposed investment project (Ignore income taxes.): Investment required in equipment $ 30,000 Annual cash inflows $ 6,000 Salvage value of equipment $ 0 Life of the investment 15 years Required rate of return 10 % The company uses straight-line depreciation on all equipment. Assume cash flows occur uniformly throughout a year except for the initial investment. Refer to Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using the tables provided. The internal rate of return of the investment is closest to:
Answer:
10.25%
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested
IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator
Cash flow = cash inflow - cash outflow
cash outflow = depreciation expense
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
$30,000 / 15 = $2000
Cash flow = $6000 - 2000 = $4000
Cash flow in year 0 = $-30,000
Cash flow in year 1 to 15 = 4,000
IRR = 10.24%
To find the IRR using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

Top Line Electronics has a piece of machinery that costs $600,000 and is expected to have a useful life of 4 years. Residual value is expected to be $100,000. Using the double-declining-balance method, what is depreciation expense for the first year
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $250,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $600,000
Salvage value= $100,000
Useful life= 4 years
To calculate the annual depreciation, we need to use the following formula:
Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]
Annual depreciation= 2*[(600,000 - 100,000) / 4]
Annual depreciation= $250,000

Cost= $1,910 + $10 × 51
Cost= $2,420
Therefore The materials and supplies in the flexible budget for November would be closest to:$2,420
A zero-coupon bond has a yield to maturity of 5% and a par value of $1,000. If the bond matures in 16 years, it should sell for a price of ________ today. (Hint: use financial calculator to get PV.) $641.11 $458.11 $1,100.11 $789.11
Answer:
$458.11
Explanation:
The computation of the present value is shown below;
As we know that
Present value = Future value ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^number of years
= $1,000 ÷ (1 + 0.05)^16
= $1,000 ÷ 1.05^16
= $458.11
Hence, the bond should be sell at a price of today is $458.11
Therefore the second option is correct
The same would be considered and relevant

Complete Question
1. One year ago, an investor bought 200 shares of a mutual fund at $8.50 per share. Over the past year, the fund has paid dividends of $.90 per share and had a capital gains distribution of $.75 per share.
a. Find the investor's holding period return, given that this no-load fund now has a net asset value of $9.10.
b. Find the holding period return, assuming all the dividends and capital gains distributions are reinvested into additional shares of the fund at an average price of $8.75 per share.
Answer:
a. Holding period returns = 26.47%
b. Holding period returns = 27.41%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Number of shares bought = 200
Price per share of the mutual fund = $8.50
Dividends per share = $0.90
Capital gains distribution per share = $0.75
Total initial investment cost = $1,700 (200 * $8.50)
Total dividends = $180 (200 * $0.90)
Total capital gains distribution = $150 (200 * $0.75)
Net asset value = $9.10 per share
Total net asset value = $1,820 (200 * $9.10)
Holding period returns:
Dividends $180
Capital gains $150
Price change $120
Total returns = $450
Holding period returns = $450/$1,700 * 100 = 26.47%
Reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distribution:
Initial investment cost = $1,700
Reinvestment cost = 330
Total investment costs = $2,030
Number of additional shares = $330/$8.75 = 38 shares
Total returns = $466 (238 * $9.10) - (200 * $8.50)
Holding period returns in percentage = $466/$1,700 * 100 = 27.41%
Brief Exercise 24-06 In October, Sheridan Company reports 20,900 actual direct labor hours, and it incurs $122,990 of manufacturing overhead costs. Standard hours allowed for the work done is 25,100 hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $4.95 per direct labor hour. Compute the total overhead variance
Answer:
Total overhead variance = $1,255 F
Explanation:
Total overhead variance is the sum of the expenditure variance and efficiency variance of overhead.
Absorbed overhead = Predetermined overhead rate per hour× Actual labour hour
Expenditure variance
$
standard cost of actual hours
= (20,900× $4.95) 103,455
Actual overhead = 122,990
Under-absorbed overhead 19,535 Adverse
Efficiency variance
(Standard hours - Actual hours)× pre-determined rate
(25,100- 20,900)× $4.95 = $20,790 Favorable
Total overhead variance = 20,790 F + 19,535 A =$1,255 F
Total overhead variance = $1,255 F

Lore Co. changed from the cash basis to the accrual basis of accounting during 2005. The cumulative effect of this change should be reported in Lore's 2005 financial statements as a Group of answer choices Prior period adjustment resulting from the correction of an error. Prior period adjustment resulting from the change in accounting principle. Adjustment to retained earnings for an accounting principle change. Component of income after extraordinary item.
Answer: Prior period adjustment resulting from the correction of an error.
Explanation:
The Cash basis method is not acceptable under both IFRS and U.S. GAAP accounting principles and these are the principles followed by the majority of the world so Lore Co. was using the cash basis in violation of both conventions which means that their accounting records before the change are considered wrong and full of errors.
In changing to the acceptable principles, they are correcting that error and need to adjust prior periods for that error as well.
