You need to earn 6% annul real rate of return and, in addition, you need to keep up with the annual inflation rate. Exactly 4 years ago, the expected inflation rate was 2% per year. At that time, you decided to invest in a 7-year annuity with $20,000 deposited at the end of each year. Now, right after you made the 4th deposit, the expected annual inflation rate for the next 3 years is 3% per year. To keep your investment goal of 6% real annual return and keeping up with the new inflation rate, how much more each year for the last 3 years you will need to deposit in addition to the $20,000 per year to reach that goal?
Answer:
"4,000" is the appropriate option.
Explanation:
Given:
Real interest rate,
= 6%
Inflation rate,
= 2%
Annual deposit,
= $20,000
Now,
The nominal interest rate will be:
= [tex]Real \ interest \ rate+Inflation \ rate[/tex]
= [tex]6+2[/tex]
= [tex]8[/tex] (%)
As per the annual deposit, I was making,
= [tex]20000\times 0.6[/tex]
= [tex]1200 \ every \ year[/tex]
Inflation rate rise 3% i.e.,
= [tex]2+3[/tex]
= [tex]5[/tex] (%)
Just to earn 1200, I have to:
= [tex]\frac{1200}{0.05}[/tex]
= [tex]24,000[/tex]
Thus the above is the appropriate answer.
Compute the payback period for each of these two separate investments: A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $280,000 and have a useful life of five years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $80,769 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $11,000. A machine costs $200,000, has a $15,000 salvage value, is expected to last seven years, and will generate an after-tax income of $44,000 per year after straight-line depreciation.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the payback period for each investment is shown below;
For Option 1
= Initial Investment ÷ Annual Cash Flow
= $280,000 ÷ $134,569
= 2.081 Year
Here Annual cash inflow is
= Net income + Depreciation
= $80,769 + (($280,000 - $11,000) ÷ 5)
= $134,569
For Option-2
= Initial Investment ÷ Annual Cash Flow
= $200,000 ÷ $70,429
= 2.84 Year
Here Annual cash inflow is
= Net income + Depreciation
= $44,000 + (($200,000 - $15,000) ÷ 7)
= $70,429
Joel is the sole shareholder of Manatee Corporation, a C corporation. Because Manatee’s sales have increased significantly over the last several years, Joel has determined that the corporation needs a new distribution warehouse. Joel has asked your advice as to whether (1) Manatee should purchase the warehouse or (2) he should purchase the warehouse and lease it to Manatee. What relevant tax issues will you discuss with Joel?
Answer:
If Joel purchases the warehouse, he can rent it to the corporation and charge the highest possible rent within reasonable terms. Joel can avoid double taxation and the corporation will be able to deduct rent expense.
Joel is also able to deduct depreciation expenses, real estate taxes, and other costs from his passive income.
As an individual, Joel is taxed differently for capital gains in case he sells the warehouse, and that rate is generally lower than corporate tax rates.

Chahana acquired and placed in service $1,185,000 of equipment on August 1, 2019 for use in her sole proprietorship. The equipment is 5-year recovery property. No other acquisitions are made during the year. Chahana elects to expense the maximum amount under Sec. 179, and bonus depreciation is not applied. Chahana's total deductions for 2019 (including Sec. 179 and depreciation) are:___________.
A) $1,020,000.
B) $237,000.
C) $1.185,000.
D) $1,053,000
Answer:
D) $1,053,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Chahana's total deductions for 2019 (including Sec. 179 and depreciation) are
Sec 179 immediate expensing $1,020,000
MACRS depreciation:
Add Basis for depreciation $33,000
[($1,185,000 - $1,020,000 Sec. 179) × .20]
Total depreciation $1,053,000
($1,020,000+$33,000)
Therefore Chahana's total deductions for 2019 (including Sec. 179 and depreciation) are:$1,053,000

Nash Company purchased a computer for $8,160 on January 1, 2019. Straight-line depreciation is used, based on a 5-year life and a $1,020 salvage value. On January 1, 2021, the estimates are revised. Nash now feels the computer will be used until December 31, 2022, when it can be sold for $510. Compute the 2021 depreciation. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.) Depreciation expense, 2021 $
Answer:
$2,397
Explanation:
Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation
Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated useful life
therefore,
Annual depreciation charge
2019
Depreciation Charge = $1,428
2020
Depreciation Charge = $1,428
2021
Depreciation Charge = ($8,160 - $1,428 - $1,428 - $510) ÷ 2
= $2,397
therefore,
Depreciation expense, 2021 is $2,397

Crane Co. leased equipment to Union Co. on July 1, 2021, and properly recorded the sales-type lease at $144000, the present value of the lease payments discounted at 8%. The first of eight annual lease payments of $21500 due at the beginning of each year of the lease term was received and recorded on July 3, 2021. Crane had purchased the equipment for $113000. What amount of interest revenue from the lease should Crane report in its 2021 income statement
Answer:
$4,900
Explanation:
Calculation to determine What amount of interest revenue from the lease should Crane report in its 2021 income statement
Interest revenue=8%/2*($144000 - $21500)
interest revenue=4%*$122,500
interest revenue = $4,900.
Therefore the amount of interest revenue from the lease should Crane report in its 2021 income statement is $4,900
Jessie purchased land as an investment on January 12, 2015 for $80,000. On January 31, 2020, Jessie sold the land for $33,000 cash. In addition, the purchaser assumed the mortgage of $70,000 on the land. What is the amount of the realized gain or loss on the sale
Answer:
$23,000 gain
Explanation:
In the given scenario the initial cost of purchase of the land by Jessie was $80,000
She finally sold the land for $33,000 cash and the purchaser also assumed a mortgage of $70,000.
That is a total sale price of 33,000 + 70,000 = $103,000
The gain on this transaction will be 103,000 - 80,000 = $23,000
Since part of the payment is in mortgage the gain is a long term capital gain for Jessie
At 60,000 machine hours, Boris Company static budget for variable overhead costs is $180,000. At 60,000 machine hours, the company's static budget for fixed overhead costs is $300,000. Machine hours are the cost driver of all overhead costs. The static budget is based on 60,000 machine hours. At 60,000 machine hours, the company produces 40,000 units. The following data is available:
Actual units produced and sold 42,000
Actual machine hours 64,000
Actual variable overhead costs $185,600
Actual fixed overhead costs $302,400
What is the fixed overhead spending variance?
A) $2,400 Favorable
B) $2,400 Unfavorable
C) $1,000 Unfavorable
D) $1,000 Favorable
Answer:
$2,400 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the fixed overhead spending variance is shown below;
We know that
fixed overhead spending variance = actual fixed overhead - budgeted fixed overhead
= $302,400 - $300,000
= $2,400 unfavorable
As actual fixed overhead is more than the standard fixed overhead so it should be unfavorable else it is favorable

Explanation:
Here are the projects and their returns
Project Return (%)
1 14
2 12
3 10
4 15
5 12
the firm should choose the project with the highest returns
Projects are mutually exclusive if the projects cannot occur at the same time. If one project is chosen, the others cannot be chosen.
Project 3,4,5 are mutually exclusive. If one of the projects are chosen, other projects cannot be chosen.
Project 4 has the highest return, so it would be chosen first.
the next project with the next highest return is project 1 and then project 2

Lando Calrissian just won the lottery and is trying to decide between the options of receiving the annual cash flow payment option of $330,000 per year for 25 years beginning today, or receiving one lump-sum amount today. Lando can earn 4% investing this money. At what lump-sum payment amount would he be indifferent between the two alternatives
Answer:
the lump-sum payment amount would he be indifferent between the two alternatives is $5,361,497.79
Explanation:
The computation of the lump-sum payment amount would be shown below:
= Annual cash flow per year × present value of annuity due factor at 4% for 25 years
= $330,000 × 16.246963
= $5,361,497.79
Refer the present value of annuity due factor table for the same
hence, the lump-sum payment amount would he be indifferent between the two alternatives is $5,361,497.79

Your friend Harold is trying to decide whether to buy or lease his next vehicle. He has gathered information about each option but is not sure how to compare the alternatives. Purchasing a new vehicle will cost $28,500, and Harold expects to spend about $700 per year in maintenance costs. He would keep the vehicle for five years and estimates that the salvage value will be $11,300. Alternatively, Harold could lease the same vehicle for five years at a cost of $3,705 per year, including maintenance. Assume a discount rate of 10 percent.
Requirement:
1. Calculate the net present value of Harold’s options. (Future Value of $1, Present Value of $1, Future Value Annuity of $1, Present Value Annuity of $1.) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.
2. Advise Harold about which option he should choose.
Lease Option
Purchase Option
Answer:
$-24,137.14
$-14,044.86
He should choose the lease option
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
Purchase option
Cash flow in year 0 = $-28,500
Cash flow in year 1 - 4 = -700
Cash flow in year 2 = 11,300 - 700 = 10,600
I = 10%
NPV= -24,137.14
Lease option
Cash flow in year 1 - 5 = 3705
I = 10%
NPV= -14,044.86
the lease option is less expensive and should be chosen
To find the NPV 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 NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

c. deliver your main point first
What should you do when adjusting multimedia slides to intercultural audiences?
a. Progress through your slides rapidly.
b. Use a little more text than usual in your slides.
c. Put very little information in your slides.
Answer: 1. anticipate differing expectations
2. Use a little more text than usual in your slides.
Explanation:
1. Based on the fact that the presentation is for intercultural audiences, it is important for the speaker to anticipate differing expectations. The audience have different values, languages etc and their opinions and expectations may be quite different.
2. During the adjustment of multimedia slides to intercultural audiences, it's important to use a little more text than usual in your slides. This is vital so that the audience can comprehend the message that's being passed across. Progressing through the slides rapidly isn't ideal and there should be detailed information in the slides.

Your child is planning attend summer camp for 3 months, starting 12 months from now. The cost for camp is $2,676 per month, each month, for the 3 months she will attend. If your investments earn 2.3% APR (compounded monthly), how much must you invest each month, starting next month, for 3 months such that your investment will grow to just cover the cost of the camp
Answer:
Monthly deposit= $2,625.16
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Total cost= 2,676*3= $8,028
Monthly interest rate0 0.023/12= 0.00192
First, we need to calculate the nominal value required at the end of the third month:
PV= FV / (1 + i)^n
FV= 8,028
i= 0.00192
n= 9 months
PV= 8,028 / (1.00192^9)
PV= $7,890.6
Now, the monthly investment to reach $7,890.6:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
A= (7,890.6*0.00192) / [(1.00192^3) - 1]
A= $2,625.16

Explanation:
Given
[tex]Option\ 1: 99, 98, 99, 94, 92, 99, 98, 99, 94, 90[/tex]
[tex]Option\ 2: 98, 97, 97, 97, 98, 98, 97, 97, 98[/tex]
Required
The mean, mode and standard deviation of both options
Option 1
Calculate mean
[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x_1 = \frac{99+ 98+ 99+ 94+ 92+ 99+ 98+ 99+ 94+ 90}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x_1 = \frac{962}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x_1 = 96.2[/tex]
Calculate mode
[tex]Mode = 99[/tex]
Because it has a frequency of 4 (more than other element of the dataset)
Calculate standard deviation
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{(99-96.2)^2 +.............+(90-96.2)^2}{10}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{103.6}{10}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{10.36}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_1 = 3.22[/tex]
Option 2
Calculate mean
[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x_2 = \frac{98+ 97+ 97+ 97+ 98+ 98+ 97+ 97+ 98}{9}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x_2 = \frac{877}{9}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x_2 = 97.4[/tex]
Calculate mode
[tex]Mode = 97[/tex]
Because it has a frequency of 5 (more than other element of the dataset)
Calculate standard deviation
[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{(98-97.4)^2+..............+ (98-97.4)^2}{9}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{2.24}{9}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{0.2489}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_2 = 0.499[/tex]

A company has a minimum required rate of return of 9%. It is considering investing in a project which costs $450000 and is expected to generate cash inflows of $200000 at the end of each year for three years. The net present value of this project is:________
a. $100000.
b. $506200.
c. $56200.
Answer:
c. $56,200
Explanation:
The cash inflows = $200,000, r = required rate of return = 9%, n = number of years = 3
Present Value of Annuity Factor (9%,3) = 2.531
Net Present Value of the Project = Cash inflows * Present Value of Annuity Factor (r,n) - Cost of Project
Net Present Value of the Project = ($200,000 * 2.531) - $450,000
Net Present Value of the Project = $506,200 - $450,000
Net Present Value of the Project = $56,200
