Answer:
1) The fact that 34% and increasing of the debt of The US is held by Foreigners is worrisome
2) some of the pitfalls to this increasing debts owned by Foreigners includes : partial loss of the country sovereignty, devaluation of the dollar and difficulties in meeting repayment conditions
3 ) we as a Nation should feel very concerned and sort for other means of funding instead of accumulating foreign public debts .
Explanation:
Total debt owed in 2015 = $18.2 trillion
Total debt owed in 2012 = $ 16.4 trillion
increase in debt = $1.8 trillion percentage increase = 1.8 / 16.4 * 100 = 10.98%
1) The fact that 34% of the debt of The US is held by Foreigners is worrisome
2) some of the pitfalls to this increasing debts owned by Foreigners includes : partial loss of the country sovereignty, devaluation of the dollar and difficulties in meeting repayment conditions

The Borio Company had an asset with an $8 book value and a $7 market value; it decided to distribute the asset as a property dividend. Journal entries were made to adjust the property to market value and declare the dividend. Indicate the combined effect on the Net Income and Total Assets, respectively:
Answer:
The net income will decrease and also the total assets will also decrease
Explanation:
Here, we want to know the combined effect on net income and total assets of company that made a decision of distributing assets as a property dividend.
As the asset value is down the entry is asset (credit) and loss on asset (debit)
This will effect the net income as it will come down and total assets value also come down
F Mining has $6 million in sales, its ROE is 20%, and its total assets turnover is 3.2x. The company has 40% equity financed (i.e., equity multiplier is 2.5). What is its net income? (DuPont analysis)
Answer:
$0.15 million
Explanation:
The formula for ROE can be used as a stepping stone to determining the value of net income:
ROE=Profit margin*Total asset turnover*Equity multiplier
ROE is 20%
total asset turnover is 3.2
equity multiplier is 2.5
20%=profit margin*3.2*2.5
20%=profit margin*8
profit margin=20%/8=2.5%
The formula for profit margin can now be used to determine net income.
profit margin=net income/sales
2.5%=net income/$6 million
net income=$6 million*2.5%
net income=$0.15 million
Profit or Loss on New Stock Issue Security Brokers Inc. specializes in underwriting new issues by small firms. On a recent offering of Beedles Inc., the terms were as follows: Price to public: $5 per share Number of shares: 3 million Proceeds to Beedles: $14,000,000 The out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Security Brokers in the design and distribution of the issue were $340,000. What profit or loss would Security Brokers incur if the issue were sold to the public at the following average price? $5 per share? Use minus sign to enter loss, if any. $ $6.25 per share? Use minus sign to enter loss, if any. $ $4.25 per share? Use minus sign to enter loss, if any.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of profit or loss is shown below:
The formula used is
= (Price × number of shares) - proceeds to Beedles - out of pocket expenses
a. For $5 per share
= ($5 × 3 million shares) - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $15,000,000 - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $660,000
b. For $6.25 per share
= ($6.25 × 3 million shares) - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $18,750,000 - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $4,410,000
c. For $5 per share
= ($4.25 × 3 million shares) - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $12,750,000 - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= -$1,590,000

Explanation:
Common Stocks are at no par value:
This means that ,
1.When Common Stocks are Issued, the value is the issue price there is no share premium reserve on it.
2. For consideration paid in Common Stocks, value of stocks would be the same as the cost at initial recognition. For example the Purchase of Land on April 1. Initial recognition is at Asking Price of $91,000. Hence common stocks are issued at $91,000.
Preference Stocks are at $100 par
This means that,
1.Any issue of Preference Stock made in excess of par value is accounted in the Preference Share Premium Reserve.

If a company is considering optimizing the physical location for every activity in the value chain, which of the following is not a possible strategic advantage for that decision?
A. Performance enhancement
B. Cost reduction
C. Political risk reduction
D. Life-cycle enhancement
Answer:
The correct answer is: D. Life-cycle enhancement
Explanation:
When a company wants to optimize physical locations for all activities in the value chain, it must manage all elements of the value chain to improve processes and increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the value chain. Therefore, some strategic advantages for this decision include the improvement of organizational performance, which would optimize the stages of the value chain, reducing waste, and the failures of the process, which would generate cost reduction. Compliance with legislation would also decrease political risks, being a significant strategic advantage for improving the value chain.
Therefore, the life-cycle enhancement may not constitute a strategic advantage, because this process requires greater capacity for the company to manage and monitor variable resources during the enhancement life cycle, which can generate greater difficulty in managing the value chain. and higher spending.
An optimum that occurs as a corner solution A. cannot exhaust the budget constraint. B. includes only one good. C. cannot be an equilibrium. D. includes the exact same amounts of each good.
Answer:
B. includes only one good.
Explanation:
A corner solution is a microeconomics concept, which is used to illustrate the graphical representation of a situation where an individual wouldn't do some things at any cost or for any price.
Optimum is usually experienced on the consumer graph at the point where the indifference curve (IC) is just tangential to the consumer's budget constraint. Thus, the corner solution lies at the non-zero interior, which then means that none of the other goods is contained in the optimum.
Hence, an optimum that occurs as a corner solution includes only one good.
For instance, Tracy saying she wouldn't buy a XYZ phone for any price, or Sarah saying she would visit a museum no matter how much it will cost her are some examples of corner solution.
At first, it might seem that valuable commodities, such as cattle or lead bars, might be good forms of money. What makes paper money preferable to these alternatives
Answer:
This questions is incomplete, the options are missing. The options are the following:
a) It is less likely to be stolen.
b) It has more intrinsic value than cattle or lead bars.
c) It is divisible (unlike cattle) and easily portable (unlike lead bars).
And the correct answer is the option C: It is divisible (unlike cattle) and easily portable (unlike lead bars).
Explanation:
To begin with, the current paper money that is used nowadays has a lot of benefits in comparison with those other material valuable commodities due to the fact of all the characteristics that the paper money has. In addition, this currency is much more divisible than those other due to the fact that a one hundred dollar paper could turn into two fifty dollars papers. Besides, the paper money is much more portable than those others and the person could even carry more value in paper money than the same value but with those other commodities. And finally, the paper money is much more liquid than those other goods, so that indicates that is extremely easy to exchange for other thing, while the other options are not.
Suppose the current term structure of interest rates, assuming annual compounding, is as follows: s_1s 1 s_2s 2 s_3s 3 s_4s 4 s_5s 5 s_6s 6 7.0% 7.3% 7.7% 8.1% 8.4% 8.8% What is the discount rate d(0,4)d(0,4)? (Recall that interest rates are always quoted on an annual basis unless stated otherwise.)
Answer: The answer is 7.53%
Explanation:
To calculate for the discount rate of d(0,4)d(0,4)
The discount factor is : d=1/1+i
Provided the interest rates are compounded annually the discount factor will give the present value of the bond when provided with the interest rate and maturity value.
Going with the above, the present value of a bond with a maturity value of 1 will be;
Present value=1 /(1+i1) (1+i) (1+i3) (1+i4)
Present value=1 / (1.07) (1.073) (1.077) (1.081)
Present value=0.748
The present value of a bond with a maturity value of 1 will hence be 0.748.
Therefore, to calculate the discounting factor for the 4 years:
1 (1+d (0,4))‐⁴ =0.748
(1+d(0,4))=0.748‐¹/⁴
1+d (0,4) =1.0753
d (0,4)=0.0753
Finally, the discount rate will be 7.53%

Haver Company currently produces component RX5 for its sole product. The current cost per unit to manufacture the required 70,000 units of RX5 follows.
Direct materials $ 4.00
Direct labor 8.00
Overhead 9.00
Total costs per unit 21.00
Direct materials and direct labor are 100% variable. Overhead is 80% fixed. An outside supplier has offered to supply the 70,000 units of RX5 for $20.00 per unit.
Required:
1. Calculate the incremental costs of making and buying component RX5.
Total incremental costs of: Making the units Buying the units
Total direct materials $ 244,000 $ 0
Total direct labor 488,000 0
Variable overhead costs 122,000 0
Cost to buy the units 1,159,000
Total costs $ 854,000 $ 1,159,000
Should the company continue to manufacture the part,
or should it buy the part from the outside supplier? Make the units
Answer:
1.Incremental cost of making and buying the RX5 is $434,000
2. Since the cost of buying is more than the cost of producing by $305,000, therefore, the company should continue to produce the component parts.
Explanation:
1.We need to first compute the cost of making the component part.
Cost of making are;
Direct material = 70,000 units × $4
= $280,000
Direct labor = $70,000 units × $8
= $560,000
Variable over head cost = 70,000 units × $9 × 20%
= $126,000
Therefore, total cost of making the components = direct material cost + direct labor cost + variable overhead cost
= $280,000 + $560,000 + $126,000
= $966,000
Also, total cost of buying the components
= Units × RX5 per unit
= 70,000 × $20
= $1,400,000
Therefore,
Incremental cost = Cost of making - Cost of buying
= $966,000 - $1,400,000
=$434,000
2. Total costs of making the units = Total direct material cost + Total direct labor costs + Variable overhead costs
= $244,000 + 488,000 + $122,000
= $854,000
Since total cost to buy is $1,159,000
Total incremental cost = Total cost of making the units - Total cost of buying the units
= $854,000 - $1,159,000
= $305,000
Suppose you inherited $275,000 and invested it at 8.25% per year. How much could you withdraw at the end of each of the next 20 years
Answer:
$28,533.5
Explanation:
Principal value (PV) = $275,000
Time = 20 years
Rate = 8.25%
Present Value = P ((1-(1+R)^-n) / r)
275,000 = P ((1- (1 + 0.0825)^-20) /.0825)
275,000 x .0825 = P (1-(1/1.0825)^20)
22687.5 = P ((1.0825^20 - 1) / (1.0825 ^20))
22687.50 = P (4.8816 - 1 / 4.8816)
22687.5 = P (3.886 / 4.8816)
22687.5 = p(0.7951)
P = 22687.5 / 0.7951
P = $28533.5
You are given three options. You may have the balance in an account that has been collecting 5 percent interest for 20 years, the balance in an account that has been collecting 10 percent interest for 10 years, or the balance in an account that has been collecting 20 percent interest for five years. Each account had the same original balance. Which account now has the lowest balance
Answer:
Third account has the lowest balance that is 2.49P.
Explanation:
First option,
Given interest rate = 5%
Time period = 20 years
Let the initial amount ( present value ) = P
First Account,
Given interest rate (n )= 5%
Time period (n ) = 20 years
Let the initial amount ( present value ) = P
Now find the Future value = PV(1+ r)^n
= P ( 1 + 5%)^20
= 2.65P
Second account:
Given interest rate (n ) = 10%
Time period (n ) = 100 years
Let the initial amount ( present value ) = P
Now find the Future value = PV(1+ r)^n
= P ( 1 + 10%)^10
= 2.59P
Thirs account:
Given interest rate (n ) = 20%
Time period (n ) = 5 years
Let the initial amount ( present value ) = P
Now find the Future value = PV(1+ r)^n
= P ( 1 + 20%)^5
= 2.49P
The Mixing Department of Complete Foods had 62,000 units to account for in October. Of the 62,000 units, 38,000 units were completed and transferred to the nest department, and 24,000 units were 20% complete. All of the materials are added at the beginning of the process. Conversion costs arc added evenly throughout the mixing process and the company uses the weighted-average method.
Compute the total equivalent units of production for direct materials and conversion costs for October.
Answer:
The total equivalent units of production are as follows:
For direct materials = 62,000 units
For conversion costs = 42,000 units

Total 62,000 62,000
Statement of Equivalent Units (EU) (Weighted average)
For October
For Conversion Costs
Particulars Units (a) Complete (%) (b) EU (c = a * b)
Transferred 38,000 100% 38,000
Ending WIP 24,000 20% 4,800
Total 62,000 42,000
Conclusion
The total equivalent units of production are as follows:
For direct materials = 62,000 units
For conversion costs = 42,000 units
Gift property (disregarding any adjustment for gift tax paid by the donor): a.Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain. b.Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a loss, and the fair market value on the date of gift was less than the donor's adjusted basis. c.Has a zero basis to the donee if the fair market value on the date of gift is less than the donor's adjusted basis. d.Has no basis to the donee because he or she did not pay anything for the property.
Answer: Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain.
Explanation:
For a gifted property, it should be noted that the tax basis for a donee that is, the person who gets the gift will be identical to that of the donor, this is, the person that donates the gift in cases whereby the property is gotten as a gift.
Therefore, a gift property disregarding any adjustment for gift tax paid by the donor will have the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain.

On January 1, 1999, Luciano deposits 90 into an investment account. On April 1, 1999, when the amount in Luciano’s account is equal to X, a withdrawal of W is made. No further deposits or withdrawals are made to Luciano’s account for the remainder of the year. On December 31, 1999, the amount in Luciano’s account is 85. The dollar-weighted return over the 1-year period is 20%. The time-weighted return over the 1-year period is 16%. Calculate X.
Answer:
X = 107.63
Explanation:
From the given information:
The amount of interest earned on this account will be:
= 85 + W - 90
= W - 5
However; the dollar weight return rate is:
[tex]\dfrac{(W-5)}{(90 - \dfrac{3}{4*W})} = 0.2[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{(W-5)}{(90 - 0.75W})} = 0.2[/tex]
W - 5 = 0.2(90 - 0.75W)
W - 5 = 18 - 0.15 W
W + 0.15 W = 18 + 5
1.15 W = 23
W = 23/1.15
W = 20
The time weighted return rate can be computed as:
[tex]0.16 = \dfrac{X}{90} \times \dfrac{85}{X-20} -1[/tex]
[tex]1+0.16 = \dfrac{X}{90} \times \dfrac{85}{X-20}[/tex]
[tex]1.16 = \dfrac{X}{90} \times \dfrac{85}{X-20}[/tex]
1.16×((90)(X-20)) = 85X
1.16 × (90X - 1800) = 85X
104.4X - 2088 = 85 X
104.4X - 85 X = 2088
19.4X = 2088
X = 2088/19.4
X = 107.628866
X = 107.63
You used to earn $76,000 a year in your old job! Suppose you return to college and earn an MBA, after which you get an upper-management position with Yum! Brands. If the tax rates are the same as in 2012 and your starting salary is $125,000, how much will you owe in federal social insurance taxes?
Answer:
Federal social insurance taxes include OASDI taxes (Social Security) and Medicare taxes. Currently. In 2012, the Social Security tax limit was $110,100, while their was no limit on Medicare.
The Social Security tax rate was temporarily reduced during 2011 and 2012 from 6.2% to 4.2%, so your Social Security tax withholdings were $4,624.20 in 2012.
Medicare taxes did not change in 2012 and were 1.45%, so your Medicare tax withholding were $1,812.50 in 2012.

the demand, shift in, fall ,fall
supply , shift out fall, rise
the demand , shift out rise rise
the demand shift in fall fall
Explanation:
If the wages of factory worker increases, it becomes more expensive to hire workers, the cost of production increases and the demand for labour would fall. as a result, production would fall and the supply of tablets would fall. a decrease in supply leads to an inward shift of the supply curve. as a result of the fall in supply, quantity would fall and there would be a rise in price.
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good. If the price of notebooks falls, it becomes cheaper to purchase notebooks, so the quantity demanded of notebooks would rise and the demand for tablets would fall since it is cheaper to buy a tablet. the demand curve for tablets would shift in as a result of the fall in demand. As a result, price and quantity of tablets would fall.
Increase in the number of manufactures would lead to an increase in supply. this would cause a rise in the supply of tablets. when there is a rise in supply, the supply curve shifts out, prices fall and quantity increases.
the new game would increase demand for tablets because people would be interested in playing the game. as a result of the rise in demand, the demand curve would shift out, the quantity would rise and prices would rise
A complement is a good that is consumed together with another good. if the price of apps rise, it would become more expensive to buy apps as result the demand for tablets would fall. the demand curve would shift in and price and quantity would fall
When the wages of factory worker increases, it becomes more expensive to hire workers, also the cost of production increases, and also the demand for labor would fall. as a result, when the production would fall also the supply of tablets would fall. when a decrease in supply leads to an inward shift of the supply curve. Although as a result of the fall in supply, the quantity would fall, and also there would be a price rise.
When Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good. also If the price of notebooks falls, it becomes cheaper to purchase notebooks, so the quantity demanded of notebooks would rise, and also the demand for tablets would fall since it is cheaper to buy a tablet. the demand curve for tablets would shift in as a result of the fall in demand. So As a result, the price and also the number of tablets would fall.
When Increase in the number of manufacturers would lead to an increase in supply. this would cause a rise in the supply of tablets. when there are a rise in supply, the supply curve shifts out, prices fall, and also quantity increases.
When the new game would increase demand for tablets because people would be interested in playing the game. So as a result of the rise in demand, the demand curve would shift out, the quantity would rise and also prices would rise
Thus A complement is a good that is consumed together with another good. if the price of apps rises, it would become more expensive to buy apps as a result the demand for tablets would fall. Then the demand curve would shift in and price and also quantity would fall

Answer:
temporary broker
Explanation:
A temporary broker is someone who is charged with responsibility of closing, or winding up the existing or pending business of a permanent or original licensed broker, in the event that, the original licensed broker dies or loses her license.
To become a temporary broker, the state's real estate licensing agency will issue a temporary license as a broker to a licensed or unlicensed person for a period of not more than ninety days and will not be extended, except on a special cases such as personal representative.
Hence, if the broker dies or loses her license, the state's real estate licensing agency may choose to appoint a TEMPORARY BROKER to close any transactions that are pending.
A company is considering two options for the production of a part needed downstream
in the manufacturing process. Particulars are as follows:
Specialized automation: Fixed Costs = $9,000 / month Variable Cost / Unit = $2
General automation: Fixed Costs = $3,000 / month Variable Cost / Unit = $5
1. What is the monthly break-even quantity for choosing between the two automation approaches?
a. 1,000 units
b. 2,000 units
c. 6,000 units
d. 12,000 units
2. For a monthly volume of 3,000 units, which automation approach should be chosen?
a. Specialized automation
b. General automation
c. Either approach is acceptable, because costs are the same for either option at 3,000 units.
d. Can’t be determined with information given.
Answer:
1= B
2= A
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Specialized automation:
Fixed Costs = $9,000 / month
Variable Cost / Unit = $2
General automation:
Fixed Costs = $3,000 / month
Variable Cost / Unit = $5
First, we need to structure the costs formula:
Specialized automation:
Total cost= 9,000 + 2x
x= production
General automation:
Total cost= 3,000 + 5x
x= production
To calculate the indifference point, we need to equal both formulas:
9,000 + 2x = 3,000 + 5x
6,000=3x
2,000= x
The indifference point is 2,000 units.
Finally, we need to calculate which process is more convenient for 3,000 units:
Specialized automation:
Total cost= 9,000 + 2*3,000= $15,000
General automation:
Total cost= 3,000 + 5*3,000= $18,000
You have a portfolio that is invested 16 percent in Stock A, 36 percent in Stock B, and 48 percent in Stock C. The betas of the stocks are .61, 1.16, and 1.45, respectively. What is the beta of the portfolio
Answer:
Beta= 1.2112
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Stock A:
Proportion= 0.16
Beta= 0.61
Stock B:
Proportion= 0.36
Beta= 1.16
Stock C:
Proportion= 0.48
Beta= 1.45
To calculate the beta of the portfolio, we need to use the following formula:
Beta= (proportion of investment A*beta A) + (proportion of investment B*beta B) + (proportion of investment C*beta C)
Beta= (0.16*0.61) + (0.36*1.16) + (0.48*1.45)
Beta= 1.2112
Most economists believe that real economic variables and nominal economic variables behave independently of each other in the long run. For example, an increase in the money supply, a _____________ variable, will cause the price level, a __________ variable, to increase but will have no long-run effect on the quantity of goods and services the economy can produce, a _____________ variable. The notion that an increase in the quantity of money will impact the price level but not the output level is known as___________________.
Answer:
nominal; nominal; real; the classical dichotomy.
Explanation:
Most economists believe that real economic variables and nominal economic variables behave independently of each other in the long run. For example, an increase in the money supply, a nominal variable, will cause the price level, a nominal variable, to increase but will have no long-run effect on the quantity of goods and services the economy can produce, a real variable. The notion that an increase in the quantity of money will impact the price level but not the output level is known as the classical dichotomy.
A nominal variable is the monetary value of a security such as bonds or stocks, without considering any change in price caused by inflation. It is also referred to as the par value or face value.
A real variable measures goods and services taking into consideration any change in price or that has been adjusted for inflation so as to allow comparison of goods with respect to another goods or services.
Hence, if the money supply is increased, it will cause an increase in the price of goods and services but will have no effect on the gross domestic product (GDP), which is known as the classical dichotomy.
