Answer:
A)
Reduced toll revenues would threaten public road maintenance budgets.
Explanation:
If cars will more than three people will not pay tall chargers, the city will collect fewer revenues from the toll stations as some cars will not pay. A significant decline in revenues that can affect road maintenance can influence the city to weigh against implementing that proposal.
Spreading the peak time traffic and increasing speeds is what the city hopes to achieve. The city would be happy if the average number of miles commuted remain the same. The only negative effect that could halt the implementation of the plan is reduced revenues.
Answer:A) reduce total revenues would threaten public road maintenance budgets.
Explanation:
Consider the exchange rate between Lebanon and Canada. Typically, exchange rates vary over time, sometimes quite dramatically. The scenarios present various changes that may affect the exchange rate. Identify whether each scenario will tend to cause an appreciation, depreciation, or have no effect on the exchange rate of Lebanese pounds relative to Canadian dollars. The magazine The Economist publishes an article indicating that analysts expect the value of Canadian dollars to rise relative to Lebanese pounds. The central bank in Lebanon announces that it is going to raise interest rates on government bonds. Based on a World Bank report, the inflation rate in Lebanon is going to be 5% next year, whereas the inflation rate in Canada is going to be 9.5% . The price of a specific basket of goods in Lebanon is roughly 1.3 times higher than the price of an identical basket of goods in Canada even after adjusting for the exchange rate.
Answer and Explanation:
1. The magazine The Economist publishes an article indicating that analysts expect the value of Canadian dollars to rise relative to Lebanese pounds: if the expectation from analysts is that the value of Canadian dollars will rise relative to Lebanese pounds then the demand for Canadiam dollars will increase therefore increasing the value/appreciate relative to Lebanese pounds.
2. The central bank in Lebanon announces that it is going to raise interest rates on government bonds: This will bring about appreciation in Lebanese pounds relative to Canadian dollars since increase in interest rate in bonds increases investment in government bonds in Lebanese pounds.
3. Based on a World Bank report, the inflation rate in Lebanon is going to be 5% next year, whereas the inflation rate in Canada is going to be 9.5%: A high inflation rate is a negative for the economy. Since inflation rate increases for both economies, there is likely to be a counter effect hence no effect on exchange rates.
4. The price of a specific basket of goods in Lebanon is roughly 1.3 times higher than the price of an identical basket of goods in Canada even after adjusting for the exchange rate: if this basket of goods is used in calculation of consumer price index(CPI) which is representative of the rate of inflation in the economy, then Lebanese pounds will depreciate relative to Canadian dollars since inflation rate has increased relative to the Canadian economy.
On June 1, 2021, Emmet Property Management entered into a 2-year contract to oversee leasing and maintenance for an apartment building. The contract starts on July 1, 2021. Under the terms of the contract, Emmet will be paid a fixed fee of $54,000 per year and will receive an additional 10% of the fixed fee at the end of each year provided that building occupancy exceeds 80%. Emmet estimates a 20% chance it will exceed the occupancy threshold, and concludes the revenue recognition over time is appropriate for this contract. Assume Emmet estimates variable consideration as the most likely amount. How much revenue should Emmet recognize on this contract in 2021? Multiple Choice $27,540 $54,000 $30,750 $27,000
Answer:
$27,540
Explanation:
Expected amount = Possible amount into probability
Expected amount = ($54,000*80%) + ($54,000+10%)*20%
Expected amount = $43,200 + ($54,000+$5,400)*20%
Expected amount = $43,200 + $59,400*20%
Expected amount = $43,200 + $11,880
Expected amount = $55,080
Revenue to be recognized on this contract in 2021 = $55,080 * 6/12 = $27,540.

Keyser Materials has 8 percent coupon bonds on the market with 19 years to maturity. The bonds make semiannual payments and currently sell for 102 percent of par. What is the current yield
Answer: 1020
Explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question:
Face value of bond = 1000
Coupon = 8%
Therefore, PMT = 8% × 1000/2 = 40
Years to maturity = 19
Since semiannual payments are made,
Nper = 19 × 2 = 38
Current price = PV
= 102% × 1000
= 1.02 × 1000
= 1020
1. Current Yield = Coupon/Current prce
= (2*40)/1020 = 7.84%
You bought a 1000 par value callable bond right after a coupon payment and paid 918 for it. You held it until it was called for 1100 (prior to maturity). The bond had a coupon rate of 9% payable semi-annually. The nominal yield rate convertible semi-annually was 10%. For how many years did you hold the bond
Answer:
25 years
Explanation:
We first set BA II Plus calculator : C/Y = 2, P/Y = 2
Then, I/Y = 10, PMT= -45(1000*9%/2), FV= -1100, PV=918
CPT No of years = N(I/Y, PMT, -FV, PV) (Semi annual period)
CPT No of years = 49.35 (Semi annual period)
CPT No of years = 49.35/2
CPT No of years = 24.68
CPT No of years = 25 years

Only ______ segregation produces viable gametes and progeny, which also occurs in about half of meiosis and accounts for semi-sterility of translocation heterozygotes.
a. Alternate
b. Adjacent-1
c. Adjacent-2
d. Both B & C
Answer:
a. Alternate
Explanation:
Translocation is the process whereby two non-homologous chromosomes undergo mutation by exchanging their parts. This establishes new linkages in the chromosomes. Translocations occur during anaphase I of meiosis. There are two common types of segregations that occur during translocations; Adjacent-1 and Alternate segregations which both have equal chances of occurrence. A less common third one is Adjacent-2 segregation.
Adjacent-1 and Adjacent-2 segregation produces genetically incomplete gametes, therefore, the gametes are non-viable or sterile.
Alternate segregation on the other hand result in the formation of genetically complete gametes, therefore, the gametes produced are viable.
Only alternate segregation produces viable gametes and progeny, which also occurs in about half of meiosis and accounts for semi-sterility of translocation heterozygotes.
Net sales for the year were $325,000 and cost of goods sold was $240,500 for the company’s existing products. A new product is presently under development and has an expected selling price of $40 per unit in order to remain competitive with similar products in the marketplace. The dollar amount of gross profit and the gross profit ratio for the year were:_______
a. $324,000 and 100%, respectively.
b. $84,500 and 26%, respectively.
c. $240,500 and 74%, respectively.
d. $83,500 and 74%, respectively.
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Gross profit equals net sales minus cost of sales(Net sales- Cost of Sales).
Net sales = $325,000
Cost of Sales = $240,500
Therefore we have;
$325,000 - $240,500
=$84,500
Gross profit ratio is (Gross profit/net sales) x 100%
($84,500 x $325,000) x 100%
26%

Depreciation--Jerry Company purchased machinery for $315,000 on May 1,2020 . It is estimated that it will have an useful life of 5 years, and a salvage value of $15,000. the machine is expected to last 100,000 hours. The machine was used for 25,000 hours the first year. What is the depreciation for the first year assuming working hours method (activity method) is expected to be used
Answer:
The depreciation for the first year is $75,000
Explanation:
In working hours method the depreciation on a fixed asset is charged using the ratio of numbers of hours utilized by the asset in a period and lifetime working capacity in hours.
First, we need to calculate the Depreciable value
Depreciable value = Cost of Asset - Salvage value = $315,000 - $15,000 = $300,000
Depreciation = Depreciable value x Numbers of hours worked / Total working capacity of Asset = $300,000 x 25,000 / 100,000 = $75,000

Explanation:
n the theory of perfect competition, the assumptions of many buyers and sellers, the production of a homogeneous product, and the possession of all relevant information by buyers and sellers imply that the perfectly competitive firm a. has a demand curve that is perfectly inelastic. b. has a demand curve that is perfectly elastic. c. sets the price it wishes. d. has a demand curve that is downward sloping
Answer:
b. has a demand curve that is perfectly elastic. c. sets the price it wishes
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand is a measure of the degree of change in quantity demanded to changes in price.
For a perfectly elastic demand it means that an infinite quantity of a product will be required by consumers at a particular price. The perfectly elastic demand curve is usually horizontal.
In perfectly competitive markets elasticity of demand is perfectly elastic because there are many buyers and sellers, production of a homogeneous product, and the possession of all relevant information by buyers and sellers.
So prices between products tend to be the same

The price of Good B increases by 4%, causing the quantity demanded of Good A to decrease by 6%. The cross-price elasticity of demand is ________, and the goods are ________.
Answer:
The answer is -1.5 and complementary goods
Explanation:
Cross price elasticity is the percentage decrease in quantity demanded divided percentage increase in price.
= -6/4
= - 1.5.
Because the sign is negative, the goods are complements. Complementary goods are directly related. As in they move in the same direction.
For example, car and fuel are complements. The increase in quantity demanded for car will increase the quantity demanded for fuel. Or if the price of car goes up, all things being equal, the quantity demanded of car will reduce and for fuel too.
The following information was taken from the 2021 financial statements of Waterway Industries: Bonds payable, January 1, 2021 $ 809000 Bonds payable, December 31, 2021 4830000 During 2021 • A $725000 payment was made to retire bonds payable with a face amount of $807000. • Bonds payable with a face amount of $319000 were issued in exchange for equipment. In its statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2021, what amount should Waterway report as proceeds from issuance of bonds payable?
Answer:
the amount reported as proceeds from bond issuance is $4,509,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount reported as proceeds from bond issuance is as follows
Total Bond Issued during 2021
= Bonds payable, December 31, 2021 - Bonds payable, January 1, 2021 + Bond Payable retired
= $4,830,000 - $809,000 + $807,000
= $4,828,000
Now
Bond issued for cash is
= Total bond issued - Bonds issued in exchange for Equipment
= $4,828,000 - $319,000
= $4,509,000
Hence, the amount reported as proceeds from bond issuance is $4,509,000

Credit Equipment $65,000
To record the transfer of the equipment account.
Debit Accumulated Depreciation $30,600
Credit Sale of Equipment $30,600
To record the transfer of accumulated depreciation to the account.
Debit Cash Account $20,000
Credit Sale of Equipment $20,000
To record the cash received from the sale.
Debit Profit and Loss Account $14,400
Credit Sales of Equipment $14,400
To record the loss on sale of equipment.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of computer equipment = $65,000
Estimated residual value = 3,800
Depreciable value = $61,200
Estimated useful life = 8 years
Annual depreciation expense = $7,650 ($61,200/8) or $61,200 * 12.5%
Depreciable cost = $61,200 ($65,000 - $3,800)
Straight-line rate = 12.5% (100%/8)
Double-declining rate = 12.5% x 2 = 25%
Depreciation amount for the 1st year = $15,300 ($61,200 * 25%)
Book value of asset at the end of the 4th year, straight-line method:
Cost of equipment = $65,000
Accumulated Depreciation = $30,600 ($7,650 * 4)
Book value = $34,400
Sales proceed = $20,000
Loss on sale of asset = $14,400 ($34,400 - $20,000)
Ridiculousness, Inc., has sales of $48,000, costs of $21,200, depreciation expense of $1,900, and interest expense of $1,200. If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the operating cash flow, or OCF
Answer:
OCF = $18,505
Explanation:
To calculate OCF, we first need the income statement:
Income Statement
Sales $ 48,000
Costs 21,200
Depreciation 1,900
EBIT $ 24,900
Interest 1,200
Taxable income $ 23,700
Taxes (35%) 8295
Net income $ 15,405
OCF = EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes
OCF = $24,900 + 1,900 - 8,295
OCF = $18,505
The median price of existing homes: ___________
a. has increased over the past 30 years, thereby acting as a hedge against inflation.
b. has risen less than the Consumer Price Index.
c. always increases in value.
d. tends to be countercyclical, thereby acting as a hedge against the business cycle.
e. remains constant over time.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The median price of existing homes always increases in value. This is so because as the year goes on, there is an ever increasing need for shelter. Because of the fact that people procreate and more people are living, there is the certain need, or say, demand for shelter. And as a result of this, there doesn't seem to be a decline in the demand, and most likely wouldn't be anytime soon either.

Money market account
Explanation:
Money market deposit account MMDA are high earning saving accounts offered by banks and credit unions. Financial institutions require a minimum amount to open an MMDA account. Customers are also required to maintain a specified balance in their accounts at all times. Withdrawals from money market deposit accounts are restricted.
Money market account pays a higher interest because financial institutions use the deposit from these accounts to invest in short-term money market securities. Examples of Money market securities include commercial papers, certificates of deposits, and treasury bills. They often offer high returns. The interest rates offered on MMDA is influenced by the interest earned on the money market securities.
g 2018: US Bond A is issued at par with annual coupon of 2% and maturity of 5 years with face value of $1,000. 2019: Interest rates increase in the market 2020: US Bond B is issued at par today with annual coupon of 5% and a maturity of 3 years with face value of $1,000.What should the price of Bond A be today, 2020, with 3 years left to maturity, so that its yield to maturity is equal to the yield to maturity on Bond B
Answer:
$918.48
Explanation:
price of bond A after the interest rate increased to 5% and the time to maturity is 3 years:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 5%)³ = $863.84
PV of coupon payments = $20 x 2.7232 (PV annuity factor, 5%, 3 periods) = $54.46
Market value of bond A = $863.84 + $54.46 = $918.48
Since the market rate is higher than the coupon rate, the bond will sell at a discount.
Jacobs Company has warrants outstanding, which are selling at a $3.00 premium above intrinsic value. Each warrant allows its owner to purchase one share of common stock at $26. If the common stock currently sells for $30, what is the warrant price? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) $11.00 $7.00 $8.00 $10.00
Answer: $7.00
Explanation:
Based on the information provided in the question, the warrant price would be calculated as the addition of the premium which is above the intrinsic value and the paid in excess of the common stock. This will be:
= $3 + ($30 - $26)
= $3 + $4
= $7.00
