b. Did not allow the stockholder to make decisions regarding hiring and firing employees.
c. Rejected the stockholder's request to vote via proxy because she was home sick.
d. The company did not provide all stockholders with timely financial reports.
e. In liquidation, paid the common shareholder after preferred stockholders were already paid.
Answer:
a. Paid the stockholder a smaller dividend per share than another common stockholder.
c. Rejected the stockholder's request to vote via proxy because she was home sick.
d. The company did not provide all stockholders with timely financial reports.
Explanation:
A shareholder is a person that has contributed to the equity of a company and holds shares as evidence of ownership.
Shareholders have right to recieve equal dividend as other common shareholders. There can only be a difference in dividend payouts when the other person has more shares.
They also have the right to vote via proxy in cases where they are not available. The proxy is duly appointed by the shareholder.
The company is also mandated to provide timely financial reports to all stockholders.
Shareholders however are not involved in daily running of the business. So they have no say in hiring and firing of employees.
Also common shareholders are paid dividend after preference share holders have been settled by the company.
You are considering a project which will provide annual cash inflows of $4,921, $5,700, and $8,000 at the end of each year for the next three years, respectively. What is the present value of these cash flows, given a 9 percent discount rate?
Answer:
Total PV= $15,489.73
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flows:
1= $4,921
2= $5,700
3= $8,000
Interest rate= 9%
To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula on each cash flow:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV1= = 4,921/1.09= 4,514.68
PV2= 5,700/1.09^2= 4,797.58
PV3= 8,000/1.09^3= 6,177.47
Total PV= $15,489.73

Is cost minimization equivalent or identical the concept of product maximization. True of False. Explain
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Given a certain production level, cost minimization is equal to product maximization. Cost minimization refers to the production level where average total cost per unit is lowest. On the other hand, production maximization refers to maximizing product output given certain restraints, e.g. amount of raw materials, number of labor hours, etc. Product maximization basically refers to the efficiency of production.
If someone can achieve product maximization and cost minimization, they should be maximizing profit.

Determine whether each statement describes the income effect, the substitution effect, or neither. Assume that all other variables are held constant. The price of lobster doubles, making Henri feel less wealthy. As a result, Henri buys fewer lobsters. The price of chicken falls by $0.75 a pound. Since chicken is now relatively less expensive than ground beef, Mary buys more chicken and less beef. The average price of a DVD falls by 15 percent. Tom buys more DVDs because his monthly movie budget can now stretch further. Model Planes Incorporated reduces production of its wooden plane product line. Jessica sees that the price of orange juice is higher this week. She decides to buy less orange juice and more apple juice because orange juice is relatively more expensive.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Income effect is when the demand for a particular good or service changes because the real income of the person has changed.
Substitution effect arises when there is a reduction in the sales for a good or service due to a price rise and therefore the consumers have switched to a cheaper alternative. For example, if the price of beef rises, the consumers may shift and purchase more of chicken.
Based on the above scenario, the following will then be:
• The price of lobster doubles, making Henri feel less wealthy. As a result, Henri buys fewer lobsters.
Income effect
Henry's real income has changed, he has more money and hence reduces the purchase for lobsters because he sees it as inferior good.
• The price of chicken falls by $0.75 a pound. Since chicken is now relatively less expensive than ground beef, Mary buys more chicken and less beef.
Substitution effect
Mary has moved to a cheaper alternative in this situation.
• The average price of a DVD falls by 15 percent. Tom buys more DVDs because his monthly movie budget can now stretch further.
Income effect
• Model Planes Incorporated reduces production of its wooden plane product line.
No effect
No effect here as it's neither income effect not substitution effect.
• Jessica sees that the price of orange juice is higher this week. She decides to buy less orange juice and more apple juice because orange juice is relatively more expensive.
Substitution effect
The reduction in the quantity demanded of lobsters describes the income effect.
Mary substituting chicken for ground beef is an example of the substitution effect.
The increase in the quantity demanded of DVDs describes the income effect.
Reduction in the production of wooden plane does not describe the income or substitution effect.
The increase in the demand for orange juice is an example of the substitution effect.
The substitution effect when a change in the price of a good leads consumers to substitute the demand for the good with other goods. If the price of the good increases, consumers buy cheaper substitutes. If the price of the good declines, consumers reduce the consumption of the substitute and increase the demand for that good.
The income effect is when an increase in price lowers consumer's purchasing power, holding money income constant. This would lead to a fall in the quantity demanded of the good. When price decreases, purchasing power increases and consumers demand more of the good.

Darryl must recognize $750 of the dividend because he owned the stock for three fourths of the year.c. Darryl must recognize the income of $1,000 because he constructively received the $1,000.d. The daughter must recognize the income because she owned the stock when the dividend was declared and she received the $1,000.e. None of the above
Answer:
d. The daughter must recognize the income because she owned the stock when the dividend was declared and she received the $1,000.

Cost of goods sold Work-in-process What amount of overhead was overapplied or underapplied this month? Overhead If this month is typical, what is a reasonable overhead rate? Reasonable overhead rate per hour
Answer:
Part 1
$82 per professional labor hour
Part 2
Job 141 = $16,383 ,Job 142 = $32,766 , and Job 143 = $17,399
Part 3
Cost of Goods Sold = $49,149
Ending Work In Process Inventory = $17,399
Part 4
Overheads Under- applied = $10,480
Part 5
$102.00 per professional labor hour
Explanation:
Labor Cost per hour = Total Cost ÷ Total hours
= $23,580 ÷ ( 129 + 258 + 137)
= $45.00 per hour
We know that,
Overhead allocation rate = Estimated Overhead Costs ÷ Estimated Professional labor hours
But using Job 141 we can solve as,
Total for Job 141 = $32,766
Less Labor Cost (258 hours × $45.00) = $11,610
Overheads allocated to Job 141 = $21,156
Then,
Overhead allocation rate = $21,156 ÷ 258
= $82 per professional labor hour
Total Costs
Job 140 Job 141 Job 142
Direct Labor $5,805 $11,610 $6,165
Overheads $10,578 $21,156 $11,234
Total Cost $16,383 $32,766 $17,399
Cost of Goods Sold
Note : Only Finished Jobs are accounted in this figure
Total Cost of Job 140 $16,383
Total Cost of Job 141 $32,766
Cost of Goods Sold $49,149
Work In Process Inventory
Note : Only Incomplete Jobs are accounted in this figure
Total Cost of Job 142 $17,399
Application of Overheads
Actual Overheads (given) = $53,448
Applied Overheads ($82 × ( 129 + 258 + 137)) = $42,968
Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads therefore we have an Under-applied situation.
Overheads Under- applied = $10,480 ($53,448 - $42,968)
Reasonable Overhead Rate.
Rate that does not produce variances is reasonable !
Reasonable Overhead Rate. = Actual Overheads ÷ Total Professional Hours
= $53,448 ÷ 524 hours
= $102.00 per professional labor hour

Which idea forms the basis of double-entry accounting?
A. For every single transaction, at least two accounts will be
affected.
B. For every single transaction, only assets will be impacted.
C. The assets of a business equal the stockholders' equity.
O D. The stockholders' equity in a business must equal the liabilities.
Answer:
A. For every single transaction, at least two accounts will be
affected.
Explanation:
Double-entry accounting is a record-keeping method where a transaction is recorded in a minimum of two accounts. There is no upper ceiling on the actual number of accounts that may be used in a transaction.
Every account has two columns, with debits on the left and credit entries on the right. The aggregate of the debit entries must equal the result of all credit entries. If this happens, the transaction has balanced. If not, the transaction is "out of balance."
Dodie Company completed its first year of operations on December 31. All of the year's entries have been recorded except for the following: At year-end, employees earned wages of $4,000, which will be paid on the next payroll date in January of next year. At year-end, the company had earned interest revenue of $1,500. The cash will be collected March 1 of the next year.
Required: 2. Prepare the required adjusting entry for transactions (a) and (b). (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
A. Dr Wages expense 4,000
Cr Wages payable 4,000
B. Dr Interest receivable 1,500
Cr Interest revenue 1,500
Explanation:
Preparation of Journal entries
A. Based on the information given we were told that the company employees earned wages of the amount of $4,000, which will be paid on in January of next year which means that the Journal entry will be:
Dr Wages expense 4,000
Cr Wages payable 4,000
B. Based on the information given we were told that the company had earned the amount of $1,500 as interest revenue which means that the Journal entry will be recorded as:
Dr Interest receivable 1,500

For each of the following actions, identify whether the method of risk assessment motivating the action is due to the value at risk or the standard deviation of an underlying probability distribution.A. You buy life insurance (Standard Deviation / Value At risk)B. You hire an investment advisor who specializes in international diversification in stock portfolios. ((Standard Deviation / Value At risk)C. In your role as a central banker, you provide emergency loans to illiquid intermediaries. ((Standard Deviation / Value At risk)D. You open a kiosk at the mall selling ice cream and hot chocolate. (Standard Deviation / Value At risk)
Answer:
Value at Risk is used to measure just how much is expected to be lost resulting from an investment over a period of time.
Standard Deviation is used to measure the risk of volatility in the returns of investments. It can measure idiosyncratic risk which is the risk inherent in an investment.
A. You buy life insurance. Value At risk.
Insurance has to do with Value at Risk to measure how much would have to be paid out.
B. You hire an investment advisor who specializes in international diversification in stock portfolios. Standard Deviation.
Diversification is based on the risk of stock volatility and is done to reduce idiosyncratic risk so this has to do with Standard deviation.
C. In your role as a central banker, you provide emergency loans to illiquid intermediaries. Value At Risk.
These illiquid intermediaries might be unable to pay back so the assessment needs to find out how much could potentially be lost.
D. You open a kiosk at the mall selling ice cream and hot chocolate. Standard Deviation.
These products will be sold in alternating seasons to ensure profitability is maintained. The idiosyncratic risk of selling only one of these was therefore targeted making this an example of Standard Deviation based risk assessment.
Agreement and disagreement among economists Suppose that Yakov, an economist from a research institute in Texas, and Ana, an economist from a school of industrial relations, are arguing over health insurance. The following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate:
Ana: A popular topic for debate among politicians as well as economists is the idea of providing government assistance for health benefits.
Yakov: I think it is oppressive for the government to tax people who take care of themselves in order to pay for health insurance for those who are obese.
Ana: I disagree. I think government funding of health insurance is useful to ensure basic fairness. The disagreement between these economists is most likely due todifferences in values.
Despite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree?
A. Immigrants receive more in government benefits than they contribute in taxes.
B. Having a single income tax rate would improve economic performance.
C. Rent ceilings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
Answer: C. Rent ceilings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
Explanation:
Economists for all their differences will most likely agree that Rent Ceilings reduce the quality and quantity of available housing.
This is because it lowers the incentive for landlords to improve their housing if they know that they cannot charge enough to benefit from this improvement.
Landlords will also build lower quality housing or not go into housing construction at all because the rent ceiling might mean that they are not making enough return to pay for the construction of the house.
Hilary sells bottled water from a small stand by the beach. On the last day of summer vacation, many people are on the beach, and Hilary realizes that she can make a lot more money this day if she hires someone to walk up and down the beach selling water. She finds a college student named Edison and makes him the following offer: They'll each sell water all day and split their earnings (revenue minus the cost of water) equally at the end of the day. Hilary knows that if they both work hard, Edison will earn $90 on the beach and Hilary will earn $240 at her stand, so they will each take home half of their total revenue: If Edison shirks, he'll generate only $60 in earnings. Hilary does not know that Edison estimates his personal cost (or disutility) of working hard as opposed to shirking at $30. Once out of Hilary's sight, Edison faces a dilemma: work hard (put in full effort) or shirk (put in low effort).In terms of Edison's total utility, it is worse for him to ____(work hard or shirk). Taking into account the loss in utility that working hard brings to Edison, Hilary and Edison together ___ (are or are not) better off if Edison shirks instead of working hard.Hilary knows Edison will shirk if unsupervised. She considers hiring her good friend Carrie to keep an eye on Edison. The most Hilary should be willing to pay Carrie to supervise Edison, assuming supervision is sufficient to encourage Edison to work hard, is ____ .
a. 55.
b. 30.
c. 25.
d. 20.It turns out that Hilary's friend Carrue is unavilable that day, so Hilary cannot find a reliable person to watch Edison. Which of the following arrangements will ensure that Edison works hard without making Hilary any worse off than she is when Edison shirks?A. Pay Edison $20, regardless of how many bottles of water he sells.B. Allow Edison to keep 75% of the revenue from the bottles of water he sells instead of 50%.C. Allow Edison to keep 57% of the revenue from the bottles of water he sells instead of 50%.D. Make Edison promise to work hard.
Answer:
A)In terms of Edison's total utility, it is worse for him to shirk. Taking into account the loss in utility that working hard brings to Edison, Hilary and Edison together are better off if Edison shirks instead of working hard.
B) $20
C) Allow Edison to keep 57% of the revenue from the bottles of water he sells instead of 50% (c)
Explanation:
If Edison works hard he will earn = $90
If Harry work hard he will earn = $240
They will both take home : (90 + 240) / 2 = 330 /2 = $165 each
If Edison shirks he will earn = $60
therefore the total revenue = 60 + 240 = 300
They will both take home : 300 / 2 = $150 each
A)In terms of Edison's total utility, it is worse for him to shirk. Taking into account the loss in utility that working hard brings to Edison, Hilary and Edison together are not better off if Edison shirks instead of working hard.
B) The most Hilary should be willing to pay Carrie
should be : Amount earned without shirking - Amount earned with shirking
= $165 - $150 = $15 the closest answer in the option is $20
C) . Allow Edison to keep 57% of the revenue from the bottles of water he sells instead of 50%

Assume that in the short run a firm is producing 500 units of output, has average total costs of $300, and has average variable costs of $220. The firm's total fixed costs are. Select one: a. $40,000. b. $6.25. c. $0.16. d. $80.
Answer:
Total fixed costs= $40,000
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total variable cost and total cost:
Total cost= 500*300= $150,000
Total variable cost= 500*220= $110,000
Now, we can calculate the total fixed costs:
Total fixed costs= total cost - total variable cost
Total fixed costs= 150,000 - 110,000
Total fixed costs= $40,000
