If Braxton's marginal corporate tax rate is , what is the interest tax shield from Braxton's debt in each of the next five years?
Answer:
Interest tax shield in year 0 = $1.155 million
Interest tax shield in year 1 = $0.924 million
Interest tax shield in year 2 = $0.693 million
Interest tax shield in year 3 = $0.462 million
Interest tax shield in year 4 = $0.231 million
Interest tax shield in year 5 = 0
Explanation:
Here is the complete question :
Braxton Enterprises currently has debt outstanding of $55 million and an interest rate of 6%. Braxton plans to reduce its debt by repaying $11 million in principal at the end of each year for the next five years. If Braxton's marginal corporate tax rate is 35%, what is the interest tax shield from Braxton's debt in each of the next five years?
interest tax shield is a reduction in tax paid as a result of interest paid on debt
interest tax shield = (debt amount x interest rate x tax rate)
Interest tax shield in year 0 = $55 million x 0.06 x 0.35 = $1.155 million
Debt in year 1 = $55 million - 11million = $44 million
Interest tax shield in year 1 = $44 million x 0.06 x 0.35 = $0.924 million
Debt in year 2 = $44 million - 11million = $33 million
Interest tax shield in year 2 = $33 million x 0.06 x 0.35 = $0.693 million
Debt in year 3 = $33 million - 11million = $22 million
Interest tax shield in year 3 = $22 million x 0.06 x 0.35 = $0.462 million
Debt in year 4 = $22 million - $11 million = $11 million
Interest tax shield in year 4 = $11 million x 0.06 x 0.35 = $0.231 million
Debt in year 5 = $11 million - $11 million = 0
Interest tax shield in year 5 = 0 x 0.06 x 0.35 = 0

Company A is a manufacturer with sales of $3,400,000 and a 60% contribution margin. Its fixed costs equal $1,600,000. Company B is a consulting firm with service revenues of $3,500,000 and a 25% contribution margin. Its fixed costs equal $410,000. Compute the degree of operating leverage (DOL) for each company. Which company benefits more from a 20% increase in sales.
Answer:
DOL of Company A= 4.63
DOL of Company B=1.88
Company A benefits more from a 20% increase in sales
Explanation:
The degree of operating leverage measures the volatility in the operating profit of a business as result of the proportion of fixed cost to its total costs.
The operating Leverage = Contribution margin/Operating income
Contribution = Contribution % × sales value
Operating income = Contribution - Fixed cost
Company A
Contribution margin= 60%× 3,400,000 = 2,040,000
Operating income = 60%× 3,400,000 - 1,600,000= 440,000
DOL =2,040,000 /440,000 = 4.634
DOL of Company A= 4.63
Company B
Contribution margin= 25%× 3,500,000=875000
Operating income = 875,000 - 410,000 =465000
DOL = 875,000 /465,000 × 100 =1.88
DOL=1.88
If both companies experience an increase of 20%, the corresponding increase in profit would be:
Company A= 4.63× 20= 92.6%
Company B = 1.88 × 20 = 37.6%
Company A benefits more
DOL of Company A= 4.63
DOL of Company B=1.88
Company A benefits more from a 20% increase in sales

Changes in Growth and Stock Valuation Consider a firm that had been priced using a 10 percent growth rate and a 13 percent required rate. The firm recently paid a $2.40 dividend. The firm has just announced that because of a new joint venture, it will likely grow at a 11 percent rate. How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage)
Answer:
Change in dollars $45.20
Change in percentage 51.36%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage)
First step is to calculate the Price before change
Price before change= ($2.40*1.10)/(.13 - .10)
Price before change = $2.64/0.03
Price before change = $88
Second step is to calculate Price after change
Price after change=($2.40*1.11)/(.13 - .11)
Price after change=$2.664/0.02
Price after change = $133.2
Now let calculate the in dollars and percentage
Change in dollars=$133.2 -$88
Change in dollars=$45.20
Change in percentage=$45.20/$88
Change in percentage=0.5136*100
Change in percentage=51.36%
Therefore How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage) will be :
Change in dollars $45.20
Change in percentage 51.36%

The company used 21,200 liters of direct material to produce this output. The company purchased 19,100 liters of the direct material at $1.60 per liter. The direct materials purchases variance is computed when the materials are purchased. The materials quantity variance for April is
Answer:
$1,350U
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The materials quantity variance for April is
Using this formula
Materials quantity variance=(AQ-SQ)*SP
Let plug in the formula
Materials quantity variance=[21,200 liters-(2,900 units*7.0 liters )*$ 1.50
Materials quantity variance{(21,200-20,300)*$1.50
Materials quantity variance=900*$1.50
Materials quantity variance=$1,350 U
Therefore the Materials quantity variance is $1,350 Unfavorable
Sunland Company is unsure of whether to sell its product assembled or unassembled. The unit cost of the unassembled product is $24 and Sunland would sell it for $62. The cost to assemble the product is estimated at $26 per unit and the company believes the market would support a price of $87 on the assembled unit. What decision should Sunland make
Answer: Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit.
Explanation:
To solve the above question, we need to calculate the incremental profit or loss first. This will be:
= After assembling sales value - Unassembled unit sales value - Coat if further processing
= $87 - $62 - $26
= -$1
Since there is an incremental loss of $1, then the correct answer is "Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit".
ABC Corporation adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory valuation on December 31, 2019. Its inventory at that date was $1,000,000 and the relevant price index was 1.00. Information regarding inventory for subsequent years is as follows: Date Inventory at Current Year Prices Price Index 12/31/2019 1,000,000 1.00 12/31/2020 1,285,200 1.08 12/31/2021 1,439,100 1.23 12/31/2022 1,625,000 1.30 What is the cost of the ending inventory at December 31, 2021 under dollar-value LIFO
Answer:
$1,209,100
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of the ending inventory as on Dec 31,2021 is shown below:
= Inventory as on Dec 31,2019 + {(Inventory as on Dec 31,2021 ÷ 2021 price index × 2019 price index) - Inventory as on Dec 31,2019} × 2021 price index ÷ 2019 price index
= $1,000,000 + {($1,439,100 ÷ 1.23 × 1) - $1,000,000} × 1.23 ÷ 1
= $1,000,000 + ($1,170,000 - $1,000,000) × 1.23
= $1,000,000 + $209,100
= $1,209,100

25. On January 1, X9, Gerald received his 50 percent profits and capital interest in High Air, LLC, in exchange for $2,700 in cash and real property with a $3,700 tax basis secured by a $2,700 nonrecourse mortgage. High Air reported a $15,700 loss for its X9 calendar year. How much loss can Gerald deduct, and how much loss must he suspend if he only applies the tax basis loss limitation
Answer:
The amount of loss that Gerald
can deduct is $5,050, and how much loss must he suspend if he only applies the tax basis loss limitation is $2,700
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much loss can Gerald deduct, and how much loss must he suspend if he only applies the tax basis loss limitation
Calculation for Gerald's initial tax basis is
Gerald's initial tax basis= [$2,700 + $3,700 - $2,700 + (50% × $2,700)]
Gerald's initial tax basis= [$2,700 + $3,700 - $2,700 + $1,350]
Gerald's initial tax basis= $5,050
Calculation for Gerald allocation
Gerald 50% allocation =50%*$15,500
Gerald 50% allocation =$7,750
Calculation for the Remaining loss that would be suspended and carried forward indefinitely
Suspended loss= $7,750-$5,050
Suspended loss= $2,700
Therefore the amount of loss that Gerald
can deduct is $5,050, and how much loss must he suspend if he only applies the tax basis loss limitation is $2,700 ($7,750-$5,050)
On January 1, Garcia Supply leased a truck for a four-year period, at which time possession of the truck will revert back to the lessor. Annual lease payments are $11,000 due on December 31 of each year, calculated by the lessor using a 5% discount rate. Negotiations led to Garcia guaranteeing a $39,800 residual value at the end of the lease term. Garcia estimates that the residual value after four years will be $38,600. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) What is the amount to be added to the right-of-use asset and lease liability under the residual value guarantee
Answer:
$987
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount to be added to the right-of-use asset and lease liability under the residual value guarantee
First step is to determine the Present value of $1: n= 4, i = 5%
Present value of $1: n= 4, i = 5%
Present value of $1=.8227
Now let calculate the amount to be added to the right-of-use asset and lease liability under the residual value guarantee
Using this formula
Amount added to right-of-use asset and lease liability=(Guaranteed -Actual)*Present value
Let plug in the formula
Amount added to right-of-use asset and lease liability=($39,800-$38,600)*.8227
Amount added to right-of-use asset and lease liability= $1,200*.8227
Amount added to right-of-use asset and lease liability=$987
Therefore the amount to be added to the right-of-use asset and lease liability under the residual value guarantee is $987

Martin Company purchases a machine at the beginning of the year at a cost of $160,000. The machine is depreciated using the double-declining-balance method. The machine’s useful life is estimated to be 4 years with a $13,300 salvage value. The machine’s book value at the end of year 3 is:
Answer:
$6,700.
Explanation:
How to find
Depreciation Expense = Beginning of Year Book Value × Double Straight-line Rate
Depreciation Expense = $160,000 × (2 × 25%) = $80,000 (Depreciation Expense, year 1)
Depreciation Expense = Beginning of Year Book Value × Double Straight-line Rate
Depreciation Expense = ($160,000 − $80,000) × (2 × 25%) = $40,000 (Depreciation Expense, year 2)
Depreciation Expense = Beginning of Year Book Value × Double Straight-line Rate
Depreciation Expense = ($160,000 − $120,000) × (2 × 25%) = $20,000 (Depreciation Expense, year 3) Depreciation Expense = Beginning of Year Book Value × Double Straight-line Rate
Depreciation Expense = ($160,000 − $140,000) × (2 × 25%) = $10,000, but this would reduce the book value to less than salvage. Therefore, depreciation expense in year 4 is limited to $6,700.
(Book value at the beginning of the year, $20,000, minus the $13,300 salvage.)
A company purchases a 17,160-square-foot commercial building for $385,000 and spends an additional $56,000 to divide the space into two separate rental units and prepare it for rent. Unit A, which has the desirable location on the corner and contains 3,510 square feet, will be rented for $1.00 per square foot. Unit B contains 13,650 square feet and will be rented for $0.60 per square foot. How much of the joint cost should be assigned to Unit B using the value basis of allocation
Answer: $308,700
Explanation:
First find proportion of rental income that comes from Unit B out of the total:
= (13,650 * 0.60) / [(3,510 * 1) + (13,650 * 0.60)]
= 8,190 / 11,700
= 70%
Joint cost = 385,000 + 56,000
= $441,000
Proportion to be assigned to Unit B:
= 441,000 * 70%
= $308,700
Meiji Isetan Corp. of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions follow: Division Osaka Yokohama Sales $ 10,200,000 $ 32,000,000 Net operating income $ 816,000 $ 3,200,000 Average operating assets $ 2,550,000 $ 16,000,000 Required: 1. For each division, compute the return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover. 2. Assume that the company evaluates performance using residual income and that the minimum required rate of return for any division is 17%. Compute the residual income for each division. 3. Is Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income an indication that it is better managed?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
1. The return on investment for Osaka will be:
= (816000/10200000) × (10200000 × 2550000)
= 32%
The return on investment for Yokohama will be:
= (3200000/32000000) × (32000000/16000000)
= 20%
2. See attachment
3. Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income is not an indication that it is better managed. Since Yokohama Division is bigger than Osaka Division, it's expected that Yokohama will have a greater residual amount.
You purchased five August 13 futures contracts on soybeans at a price quote of 1056′6. Each contract is for 5,000 bushels with the price quoted in cents and 1/8 ths of a cent per bushel. Assume the contract price is 1061′4 when you close out your contract six weeks from now. What will be your total profit or loss on this investment? A) $6,480.75 B) $1,187.50 C) $950.25 D) $24,000.00 E) $16,200.50
Answer:
B) $1,187.50
Explanation:
The computation of the total profit or loss on this investment is given below:
Expiration price = 1061'4 = 1061 + 4 ÷ 8 = 1061.50
Quoted price = 1056'6 = 1056 + 6 ÷ 8 = 1056.75
Now the profit is
= (1061.50 - 1056.75) × 5000 × 5
= $1,187.50
Hence, the profit on this investment is $1,187.50

Assume initially that the price of X (the quantity of which is measured on the horizontal axis) is $9 and the price of Y (the quantity of which is measured on the vertical axis) is $4. If the price of X now declines to $6, the budget line will Multiple Choice be unaffected. shift outward on the vertical axis. shift inward on the horizontal axis. shift outward on the horizontal axis.
Answer:
The budget line will shift outward on the horizontal axis.
Explanation:
One of the laws of the demand is that the lower the price of a good, the higher the quantity of that good that is purchased.
From the question, a decline in the price of X from $9 to $6, will lead to an increase in the quantity of X that is bought.
Since the price of Y still remains at $4, if the price of X now declines to $6, the budget line will shift outward on the horizontal axis.

Calculation to determine When must Colbert recognize the income if his accounting methods are selected to minimize income recognition?
Calculation for amount recognized in year 1
Payment in year 1= $9,000 ÷ 18 months
Payment in year 1= $500
Therefore Based on the above calculation the amount recognized in year 1 will be $500

Payment in year 2 = $9,000 - $500
Payment in year 2= $8,500
Therefore The amount recognized in year 2 will be $8,500
Assume that your father is now 40 years old, that he plans to retire in 20 years, and that he expects to live for 25 years after he retires, that is, until he is 85. He wants a fixed retirement income that has the same purchasing power at the time he retires as $75,000 has today. (He realizes that the real value of his retirement income will decline year-by-year after he retires.) His retirement income will begin the day he retires, 20 years from today, and he will then receive 24 additional annual payments. Inflation is expected to be 4% per year from today forward; he currently has $200,000 saved; and he expects to earn a return on his savings of 7% per year, annual compounding. To the nearest dollar, how much must he save during each of the next 20 years (with deposits being made at the end of each year) to meet his retirement goal

During 2020, Sarasota sells 440 lounge chairs, 220 armchairs, and 264 straight chairs.
What is the amount of gross profit realized during 2020? What is the amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs on December 31, 2020?
Answer:Gross profit realized during 2020 =$30,899
amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs on December 31, 2020 =$63,800
Explanation:
A)Vaughn Furniture Company purchases a carload of wicker chairs at a cost of a lump sum of $131,670 in 2020
Now the total number of chairs purchased per type is;
Lounge chairs 880
Armchairs 660
Straight chairs 1,540
Total = 3,080 chairs purchased
Also, Vaughn sells
440 Lounge chairs at $90 each = 440 x 90=$39,600
220 Armchairs at $80 each= 220 x 80 =$ 17600
264 Straight chairs at $50 each = 264 x 50 =$13,200
Total selling price of 924 chairs =$39,600+$ 17600+$13,200 =$70,400
Now , if 3,080 chairs can be purchased for a-lump sum amount of $131,670
924 chairs can be puchased in a lump sum of (924 x 131,670) /3080
=$39,501
Remember that the Selling price for 924 chairs =$70,400
Gross profit realized during 2020 = $70,400 -$39,501=$30,899
b).
Estimated Selling Price value for straight chair =$50
Straight chairs remaining= 1540-264=1276
1276 at $50 each = 1276 X 50 =$63,800

Income tax expense ($71,344) ($64,820)
Net Income (Loss) $183,456 $166,680
Explanation:
FIFO
Assumes that the units to arrive first will be sold first. Therefore, the Cost of Goods Sold will be based on the earlier (old) prices.
Cost of Sales = 10,000 x $3.50 + 35,000 x $3.70 + 53,000 x $3.90 = $371,200
LIFO
Assumes that the units to arrive last will be sold first, Hence the Cost of Goods Sold will be based on the later (new) prices.
Cost of Sales = 25,000 x $4.20 + 60,000 x $3.90 + 15,000 x $3.70 = $394,500
