Bob lives in San Diego and runs a business that sells boats. In an average year, he receives $793,000 from selling boats. Of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer a wholesale cost of $430,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totaling $301,000. He owns his showroom; if he chooses to rent it out, he will receive $15,000 in rent per year. Assume that the value of this showroom does not depreciate over the year. Also, if Bob does not operate this boat business, he can work as a financial advisor, receive an annual salary of $50,000 with no additional monetary costs, and rent out his showroom at the $15,000 per year rate. No other costs are incurred in running this boat business.

The Bonita Inc., a manufacturer of low-sugar, low-sodium, low-cholesterol TV dinners, would like to increase its market share in the Sunbelt. In order to do so, Bonita has decided to locate a new factory in the Panama City area. Bonita will either buy or lease a site depending upon which is more advantageous. The site location committee has narrowed down the available sites to the following three very similar buildings that will meet their needs.

Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $611,000, useful life 25 years.
Building B: Lease for 25 years with annual lease payments of $71,370 being made at the beginning of the year.
Building C: Purchase for $657,400 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 25 years at a net annual rental of $6,800. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year. The Nash Inc. has no aversion to being a landlord.

Required:
In which building would you recommend that The Bonita Inc. locate, assuming a cost of funds?

Answers

Answer:

Building C

Explanation:

Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $611,000, useful life 25 years.

Building B: Lease for 25 years with annual lease payments of $71,370 being made at the beginning of the year.

Building C: Purchase for $657,400 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 25 years at a net annual rental of $6,800. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year.

11% cost of funds

we must determine the present value of each option:

Building A's present value = $611,000

Building B's present value = $71,370 x 8.4217 (PV annuity due factor, 11%, 25 periods) = $601,057

Building C's present value = $657,400 - ($6,800 x 8.4217) = $657,400 - $57,268 = $600,132 (LOWEST PV)

Decision Making: Stormcenter A decision is a choice made from among available alternatives. Decision making is the process of identifying and choosing alternative courses of action. This activity is important because managers need to know how to make effective decisions, sometimes quickly. The goal of this activity is to provide you with problem-solving skills when it comes to issues related to decision making. A storm is on track for a possible hit on a major city and the government has set up a command center to monitor it and make decisions. There is some disagreement between government officials on whether or not an evacuation of the city should be ordered. There is limited time to make a decision and things get quite heated at the storm center. How is the team handling the situation? How would you? At the beginning of the video, Ava does not properly follow the third step of the formal decision-making process. What did she do wrong?

Answers

Answer:

The Anderson Company has equal amounts of low-risk, average-risk, and high-risk projects. The firm's overall WACC is 12%. The CFO believes that this is the correct WACC for the company's average-risk projects, but that a lower rate should be used for lower-risk projects and a higher rate for higher-risk projects. The CEO disagrees, on the grounds that even though projects have different risks, the WACC used to evaluate each project should be the same because the company obtains capital for all projects from the same sources. If the CEO's position is accepted, what is likely to happen over time? a. The company's overall WACC should decrease over time because its stock price should be increasing. b. The CEO's recommendation would maximize the firm's intrinsic value. c. The company will take on too many low-risk projects and reject too many high-risk projects. d.

A company making tires for bikes is concerned about the exact width of their cyclocross tires. The company has a lower specification limit of 19.930 mm and an upper specification limit of 20.070 mm. The standard deviation is 0.18 mm and the mean is 20.000 mm. b. The company now wants to reduce its defect probability and run a "six-sigma process." To what level would they have to reduce the standard deviation in the process to meet this target? (Round the answer to 5 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Missing word "a. What is the process capability index for the process?"

a. Cpk = Min[USL-μ/3σ, μ-LSL/3σ]

Cpk = Min[(20.070-20)/(3*0.18) ,(20-19.930)/(3*0.18]

Cpk = Min[0.1296, 0.1296]

Hence, process capability index is 0.1296

b. 2 = Min[USL-μ/3σ, μ-LSL/3σ]

2 = Min[(20.070-20)/(3*σ) ,(20-19.930)/(3*σ]

2 = Min[(0.07/3*σ, 0.07/3*σ)]

= Min[0.07/6, 0.07/6]

σ = 0.07/6

σ = 0.0117

Hence, reduced standard deviation level is 0.0117

You have just purchased a municipal bond with a $10,000 par value for $9,500. You purchased it immediately after the previous owner received a semiannual interest payment. The bond rate is 6.6% per year payable semiannually. You plan to hold the bond for 7 years, selling the bond immediately after you receive the interest payment. If your desired nominal yield is 10% per year compounded semiannually, what will be your minimum selling price for the bond

Answers

Answer:

$12,341.80

Explanation:

The computation of the minimum selling price for the bond is shown below:

Semi-annual  = 10% ÷ 2 = 5%

Semi-annual compounding periods = 7 × 2 = 14

Semi-annual coupon (for 10 bonds) = $10,000 × 6.6% × (1 ÷ 2) = $330

as we know that

Here We assume the selling price be S

The Present worth of the bond = PW of future cash flows

$9,500 = $330 × P/A(5%, 14) + S × P/F(5%, 14)

$9,500 = $330 × 9.898641 + S × 0.505068

$9,500 = $3,266.55 + S × 0.505068

S × 0.505068 = $6,233.45

= $12,341.80

Jessica Adams is 21 years old and has just graduated from college. In considering the retirement investing options available at her new job, she is thinking about the long term effects of inflation. Explain the effect of long term inflation on meeting retirement financial planning goals. If long term inflation is expected to average 4% per year and you expect a long term investment of 7% per year- what is Jessica's long term expected real rate of return (adjusted for inflation)

Answers

Answer:

The summary as per the given query is summarized in the explanation section below..

Explanation:

The given values are:

The nominal rate of return,

= 7%

i.e.,

= 0.07

Inflation,

= 4%

i.e.,

= 0.04

Lengthy-term inflation would lessen the return on investment that lowers the net return as long-term investments are made.It can also aim to obtain a higher return that will comfortably exceed the rate of inflation and therefore is beneficial towards diminishing the average return.

Now,

The rate of return will be:

= [tex](\frac{1+ nominal \ rate \ of \ return}{1+Inflation}) -1[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

= [tex](\frac{1+0.06}{1+0.04} )-1[/tex]

= [tex](\frac{1.07}{1.04} )-1[/tex]

= [tex]1.028846-1[/tex]

= [tex]2.8846 \ percent[/tex]

Therefore it isn't able to measure the average return rate because the quantity of years for its expenditure.

Explanation:

Calculation to determine its current year amortization expense.

Using this formula

Current year amortization expense=(Copyrights /Numbers of Intangibles years)

Let plug in the formula

Current year amortization expense=($500,000/10 years)

Current year amortization expense=$50,000

Therefore its current year amortization expense will be $50,000

The current year amortization expense of the company will be $150,000. It is calculated in respect of copyright and trademark.

What is amortization?

Amortization refers to the writing down of value of intangible assets over their useful life. Is compared to the depreciation amortization reduces the value of the intangible assets.

The assets that are subject to amortization are Trademark, copyright, patent, license and so on.

In the given question the intangible assets that are subject to amortization are Trademark and copyright. The amortization period for these asset is 10 years. Therefore the amortization expense will be some of cost of asset subject to amortization divided by the number of years.

Hence the amortization expense will be:

[tex]\rm Amortization \:expense = \dfrac{Copyright + Trademark}{10}\\\\\rm Amortization \:expense = \dfrac{\$500,000 + \$1,000,000}{10}\\\\\rm Amortization \:expense = \dfrac{ \$1,500,000}{10}\\\\\rm Amortization \:expense = \$150,000[/tex]

Therefore the amortization expense will be $150,000.

Particulars                                          Amount

Opening cash balance     $12,000

Add: Cash collection        $40,000

Total cash available                           $52,000

Less: Cash payment

Purchase of inventory       $4,500

Operating expenses          $7,900

Capital expenditure            $0          $12,400

Cash balance at the end                   $39,600

The cash balance at the end of September is $39,600

First, we'll determine the total cash available

Total cash available  

= Opening cash balance   + Cash collection    

= 12,000 + 40,000

= 52,000

Cash balance at the end

The next step is to deduct the cash payments from the total cash available.

= Total cash available - (Purchase of inventory + Operating expenses + Capital expenditure)

= 52,000 - (4,500 + 7,900 - 0)

= 52,000 - 12,400

= 39,600    

The cash balance at the end of September is $39,600

Two constant growth stocks are in equilibrium, have the same price, and have the same required rate of return. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The two stocks must have the same dividend per share. b. If one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a lower dividend growth rate. c. None of the above. d. The two stocks must have the same dividend growth rate. e. If one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a higher dividend growth rate.

Answers

Answer:

e. If one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a higher dividend growth rate.

Explanation:

Rate of return can be defined as the percentage of interest or dividends earned on money that is invested.

In Financial accounting, a return refers to the amount of profit generated by an investor on an investment over a specific period of time.

Basically, the rate of return which is typically expressed as a percentage of the initial costs of an investment can either be a gain or a loss on an investment. Therefore, a positive rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, simply means that an investor is making a profit (gains) while a negative rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, indicates that the investor is running at a loss.

Two constant growth stocks are in equilibrium, have the same price, and have the same required rate of return. Thus, if one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a higher dividend growth rate and vice-versa.

Answer:

e. If one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a higher dividend growth rate.

JRJ Corporation issued 10-year bonds at a price of $1,000. These bonds pay $60 interest every six months. Their price has remained the same since they were issued; that is, the bonds still sell for $1,000. Due to additional financing needs, the firm wishes to issue new bonds that would have a maturity of 10 years and a par value of $1,000 and pay $40 interest every six months. If both bonds have the same yield, how many new bonds must JRJ issue to raise additional capital of $2 million

Answers

Answer:

JRJ must issue 2,596 bonds to raise additional capital of $2 million.

Explanation:

From the question, we have the following:

Amount needed to be raised = $2 million = $2,000,000

Coupon rate = 8.0%, or 0.08

FV = Face value = 1000

Year to maturity = 10

NPER = Number of period = Year to maturity * Number of semiannuals in a year = 10 * 2 = 20

PMT = (FV * Coupon rate) / Number of semiannuals in a year  =(1000 * 0.08) / 2 = 40

Rate = Semiannual interest / FV = $60 / $1000 = 0.06

The net proceeds can be calculated using the following excel function:

Net proceed = PV(rate, NPER, -PMT, -FV) ........... (1)

Substituting all the relevant value into equation (1), we have:

Net proceed = PV(6%, 20, -40, -1000)

Inputing =PV(6%, 20, -40, -1000) in any cell in excel sheet (Note: as done in the attached excel file), we have:

Net proceed = $770.60

Therefore, we have:

Number of bonds that must be raised = Amount needed to be raised / Net proceed = $2,000,000 / $770.60 = 2,596

Apartments is a ​-unit apartment complex. When the apartments are​ 90% occupied, monthly operating costs total $220,040. When occupancy dips to​ 80%, monthly operating costs fall to $215,480. The owner of the apartment complex is worried because many of the apartment residents work at a nearby manufacturing plant that has just announced it will close in three months. The apartment owner fears that occupancy of her apartments will drop to 55​% if residents lose their jobs and move away. Assuming the same relevant​ range, what can the owner expect her operating costs to be if occupancy falls to ​55%?

Answers

Answer:

Missing word "Use the​ high-low method to determine operating cost equation y=$_____, x + $ = ____"

Cost on (800*90%)=720 units is 220,040

Cost on (800*80%) = 640 Units is 215,480

Variable cost per unit = Changes in total cost/High activity-low activity = 4560 / 80 = $57 per unit

Fixed cost = Total cost - Variable cost = 220,040 - (720*$57) = 220,040 - 41,040 = $179000

Cost equation:

Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost per unit

Y = 179000 + 57X

Y = 179000 + (57*440)

Y = $204,080

If the restored/expanded beaches attract visitors who will spend $6.2 million per year, what is the conventional B/C ratio at the social discount rate of 8% per year

Answers

Answer:

The conventional B/C ratio is 1.83.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Officials from the City of Galveston and State of Texas gathered to celebrate the start of a beach restoration project that involves dumping sand and adding antierosion structures. The first cost of the project is $30 million with annual maintenance estimated at $340,000. If the restored/expanded beaches attract visitors who will spend $6.2 million per year, what is the conventional B/C ratio at the social discount rate of 8% per year. Assume the State wants to recover the investment in 20 years.

Explanation of the answers is now given as follows:

From the question, we have:

First cost = $30 million, or $30,000,0000

Estimated annual maintenance cost = $340,000

Expected annual revenue = Amount to spend per year by the visitors = $6.2 million, or 6,200,000

r = social discount rate per year = 8%, or 0.08

n = number of recover the investment years = 20

Incorporating the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity, we have:

B = Present worth of annual revenue = Estimated annual revenue * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) = $6,200,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.08))^20) / 0.08) = $60,872,513.93

C = Present worth of cost = First cost + (Estimated annual maintenance cost * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r)) = $30,000,0000 + ($340,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.08))^20) / 0.08)) = $33,338,170.12

B/C ratio = B / C = $60,872,513.93 / $33,338,170.12 = 1.83

Therefore, the conventional B/C ratio is 1.83.

You just bought a motorcycle for $8,000. You plan to ride the motorcycle for two years, and then sell it for $3,200. During this two-year period, you expect to ride the motorcycle 10,000 miles each year, and you expect the motorcycle to get 50 miles per gallon of gasoline. The annual cost of insurance is $960, registration costs are $80 (good for two years), and the price of gasoline is $2.50 per gallon. During this same two-year period, you will need to service your motorcycle five times, at $240 per service check, and obtain five oil changes. Each oil change costs $35. You will also need to replace your tires once during this two-year period, for a total cost of $400.
a. Calculate the total fixed cost, total variable cost, and cost per mile for the two-year period, and then complete the table below.
Instructions: Round your answers for total fixed cost and total variable cost to the nearest whole number. Round your answer for cost per mile to two decimal places.

b. Suppose you want to lower the cost per mile. You should focus on: __________
a) variable costs, because they represent a majority of the total costs.
b) fixed costs, because they must be paid.
c) variable costs, because they can be avoided.
d) fixed costs, because they represent a majority of the total costs.

Answers

Answer:

1. a. Total fixed costs

= Depreciation + Insurance + Registration cost

Depreciation = Cost - salvage = 8,000 - 3,200 = $4,800

Total fixed cost = 4,800 + (960 * 2) + 80

= $6,800

b. Total variable cost:

= Gasoline + Service + Oil change + tire replacement

= (10,000 / 50 * 2.5 * 2 years) + (240 * 5) + (35 * 5) + 400

= 1,000 + 1,200 + 175 + 400

= $2,775

c. Cost per mile:

= Total cost / Number of miles

= (6,800 + 2,775) / (10,000 * 2 years)

= $0.48 per mile

2. c) variable costs, because they can be avoided.

A business operated at 100% of capacity during its first month and incurred the following costs: Production costs (18,200 units): Direct materials $179,000 Direct labor 233,300 Variable factory overhead 261,200 Fixed factory overhead 98,300 $771,800 Operating expenses: Variable operating expenses $124,700 Fixed operating expenses 46,700 171,400 If 1,800 units remain unsold at the end of the month and sales total $1,193,000 for the month, what would be the amount of income from operations reported on the variable costing income statement

Answers

Answer: $66600

Explanation:

First, we calculate the total production cost which will be:

Direct materials = $179,000

Direct labor = $233,300

Variable factory overhead = $261,200

Total production cost = $673500

Production cost per unit = $673500 / 18200 = $37 per unit

The amount for 1800 units unsold will then be:

= 1800 × $37

= $66600

Therefore, the amount of income from operations reported on the variable costing income statement is $66600.

Is the material mix variance favorable or unfavorable

Answers

Answer:

The material mix variance unfavorable.

Explanation:

This can be determined using the following 3 steps:

Step 1: Calculation of the total Standard Cost of Actual Mix of the 3 materials

Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material O = Units of material O used * Standard cost of material O = 210 * $0.10 = $21

Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material H = Units of material H used * Standard cost of material H = 0 * $0.08 = $0

Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material M = Units of material M used * Standard cost of material M = 185 * $0.02 = $3.79

Total Standard Cost of Actual Mix of the three materials = Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material O + Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material H + Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material M = $21 + $0 + $3.79 = $24.70

Step 2: Calculation of the total Standard Cost of Standard Mix of the 3 materials

Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material O = Standard Units of material O * Standard cost of material O = 0 * $0.10 =  $0

Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material H = Standard Units of material H * Standard cost of material H = 125 * $0.08 = $10

Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material M = Standard Units of material M * Standard cost of material M = 75 * $0.02 = $1.50

Standard Cost of Standard Mix of the three materials = Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material O + Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material H + Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material M = $0 + $10 + $1.50 = $11.50

Step 3: Calculation of material mix variance

Material mix variance = Total Standard Cost of Actual Mix of the three materials - Standard Cost of Standard Mix of the three materials = $24.70 - $11.50 = $13.20

Since the Total Standard Cost of Actual Mix of the three materials is greater than Standard Cost of Standard Mix of the three materials (i.e. by $13.20), this implies that the material mix variance unfavorable.

You just received a bonus at your job of $4,000 which you decide to put in a savings account at the local bank. Assume that banks lend out all excess reserves and there are no leaks in the banking system. That is, all money lent by banks get deposited in the banking system. Round your answers to the nearest dollar.The reserve requirement is 18%, how much will your deposit increase the total value of checkable deposits?If the reserve requirement is 7%, how much will your deposit increase the total value of checkable deposits?Decreasing the reserve requirement _____ the money supply.a. Decreasesb. Increases

Answers

Answer:

$22,222.22

$57,142.86

INCREASES

Explanation:

Reserve requirement is the portion of deposit received by banks that the central bank requires to be kept as deposit.

If $4000 is deposited and reserve requirement is 18%

reserves would increase by $4000 x 0.18 = 4720

Increase in the total value of checkable deposit is determined by the money multiplier

Money multiplier = amount deposited / reserve requirement

$4000 / 0.18 = $22,222.22

$4000 / 0.07 = $57,142.86

It can be seen that the higher the reserve requirement, the lower the increase in the total value of checkable deposit

Calculate the price elasticity of demand for Pursecases using the midpoint formula from this information

Answers

Answer:

The price elasticity of demand for Pursecases using the midpoint formula from this information is -2.45.

Explanation:

From the question, we have:

New quantity demanded = 60,000

Old quantity demanded = 6,000

New price = $20

Old price = $40

The formula for calculating the price elasticity of demand is as follows:

Price elasticity of demand = Percentage change in quantity demanded /

Percentage change in price ................ (1)

Where, based on the midpoint formula, we have:

Percentage change in quantity demanded = {(New quantity demanded - Old

quantity demanded) / [(New quantity demanded + Old quantity demanded) /

2]} * 100 = {(60,000 - 6,000) / [(60,000 + 6,000) / 2]} * 100 = 163.636363636364%

Percentage change in price = {(New price - Old price) / [(New price + Old

price) / 2]} * 100 = {(20 - 40) / [(20 + 40) / 2]} * 100 = -66.6666666666667%

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Price elasticity of demand = 163.636363636364% / -66.6666666666667% = -2.45454545454546

Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:

Price elasticity of demand = -2.45

Therefore, the price elasticity of demand for Pursecases using the midpoint formula from this information is -2.45.

When The price elasticity of demand for Purchase then we are using the midpoint formula from this information is: -2.45.

Elasticity of demand

According to the Elasticity of demand, are refers to the degree within the change in demand and also when there is a little change in another economic factor, like price or income.

Then New quantity demanded is = 60,000Old quantity demanded is = 6,000

After that New price are = $20

Then Old price is = $40

When The Price elasticity of demand is = Percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price are

Percentage change in quantity demanded = * 100

= * 100

= 163.636363636364%[/tex]

Percentage change in price

= * 100

= * 100 = -66.6666666666667%[/tex]

Then Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Price elasticity of demand is =163.636363636364% [tex]-66.6666666666667% = -2.45454545454546[/tex}

Then the Price elasticity of demand is = -2.45

Thus, the value elasticity of demand for Purchase using the midpoint formula from this information is -2.45.

Answers

Answer:

1. For Bus #3, calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method

Depreciation expense per mile = ((Cost of bus - Salvage value) / Total miles)

= ($66,350 - $8,800) / 115,100 miles  

= $0.5 per mile

The depreciation expense per mile is $0.5 per mile.

2. BUS 1

Depreciation for 1 year = (Cost of assets - Residual value) / Useful life

= $99,100−$7,900 / 4 years

= $22,800

Accumulated depreciation = Depreciation for 1 year * 3 years (from 2012 to 2014)

= $22,800 * 3 years

= $68,400

BUS 2

Depreciation rate = (1/4 *100)*2 = 50%

Years     Annual Depreciation                                    Accum. depreciation

2014       $16,000(128,000-64,000-32,000)*50%           $112,000

BUS 3

Accumulated depreciation = Depreciation expense per mile  * Total miles of 2013 and 2014

= $0.50 * (23,400 miles +32,700 miles)

= $0.50 * 56,100 miles

= $28,050

3. Depreciation rate = (1/4 *100)*2 = 50%

Years     Depreciation   Calculation  

2012      $48,000           128,000*50%*9/12

2013      $40,000           128,000-40,000*50%

So, the depreciation expense for Bus 2 for 2012 and 2013 is $48,000 and $40,000

Answer 1:

The depreciation expense per mile under units of activity method of Bus=3 :

Depreciation Expense per mile = ((Cost of bus - Salvage value) / Total miles)  Depreciation Expense per mile = ($66,350 - $8,800) / 115,100 miles    Depreciation Expense per mile= $0.5 per mile

Answer 2:  The amount of accumulated depreciation on each bus on December 31, 2014 :

BUS 1

Depreciation for 1 year = (Cost of assets - Residual value) / Useful life

Depreciation for 1 year = $99,100−$7,900 / 4 years

Depreciation for 1 year = $22,800

Accumulated depreciation = Depreciation for 1 year * 3 years (from 2012 to 2014)

Which of the following fractions is equivalent to 6/152/74/101/21/4 Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out by Shel Silverstein Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would not take the garbage out! Shed scour the pots and scrape the pans, Candy the yams and spice the hams, 5 And though her daddy would scream and shout, She simply would not take the garbage out. And so it piled up to the ceiling: Coffee grounds, potato peelings, Brown bananas, rotten peas, 10 Chunks of sour cottage cheese. It filled the can, it covered the floor, It cracked the window and blocked the door With bacon rinds and chicken bones, Drippy ends of ice cream cones, 15 Prune pits, peach pits, orange peel, Gloppy glumps of cold oatmeal, Pizza crusts and withered greens, Soggy beans and tangerines, Crusts of black burned buttered toast, 20 Gristly bits of beefy roasts The garbage rolled on down the hall, It raised the roof, it broke the wall Greasy napkins, cookie crumbs, Globs of gooey bubblegum, 25 Cellophane from green baloney, Rubbery blubbery macaroni, Peanut butter, caked and dry, Curdled milk and crusts of pie, Moldy melons, dried up mustard, 30 Eggshells mixed with lemon custard, Cold French fries and rancid meat, Yellow lumps of Cream of Wheat. At last the garbage reached so high That finally it touched the sky. 35 And all the neighbors moved away, And none of her friends would come to play. And finally Sarah Cynthia Stout said, OK, Ill take the garbage out! But then, of course, it was too late 40 The garbage reached across the state, From New York to the Golden Gate And there, in the garbage she did hate, Poor Sarah met an awful fate, That I cannot right now relate 45 Because the hour is much too late. But children, remember Sarah Stout And always take the garbage out! 1. The poet uses hyperbole (exaggerated expression generally intended for humor) to humorously imitate the type of story that is meant to teach a moral. At what point in the poem does the hyperbole begin to take over? In other words, at what point does the poem begin to sound unrealistic and outrageous? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2. Shel Silverstein also uses alliteration (the repetition of initial consonant sounds) to help create an interesting sound pattern to the poem. List at least five examples of alliteration used in the poem. a. ______________________________________________________________________________ b. ______________________________________________________________________________ c. ______________________________________________________________________________ d. ______________________________________________________________________________ e. ______________________________________________________________________________ 3. This poem is set up in one long stanza. When you examine the rhyme pattern, the stanza is mostly broken into a series of rhyming couplets (two lined verses). Identify the two lines where this pattern first becomes interrupted? __________________________________________________________ Why do you think Silverstein decided to change the rhyme scheme at that point? ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ 4. How does the poet use imagery to help create a visual picture of the scene being described? What are some of the descriptions he uses that help to create sensory images for the reader? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 6th grade math I mark as brainliest HELP PLZ HELP !!!!!!!!!!!
