Answer:
$18.35
Explanation:
P0 = D1/(1+r)^1 + D2/(1+r)^2 + D3/(1+r)^3 + P3/(1+r)^3
D1 = $2.40 * 0.90 = $2.16
D2 = $2.16 * 0.90 = $1.944
D3 = $1.944 * 0.90 = $1.7496
P3 = D3*(1+g)/(r-g) = $1.7496*(1+0.05)/(0.14-0.05) = $20.412
P0 = D1/(1+r)^1 + D2/(1+r)^2 + D3/(1+r)^3 + P3/(1+r)^3
P0 = [$2.16/(1+0.14) + $1.944(1+0.14)^2 + $1.7496/(1+0.14)^3 + $20.412/(1+0.14)^3]
P0 = $18.35
Therefore, the worth of the stock today is $18.35.
On December 1st, the company pays a local radio station $200,000 for 4 months of radio ads that are to be aired equally throughout December through March. Prepaid Advertising was debited on December 1st and no other entries regarding this transaction were made since then.
15. $ After the adjusting entry has been recorded on December 31", determine the amount of advertising expense for the year ended December 314 16. S After the adjusting entry has been recorded on December 31%, determine the ending balance in the prepaid advertising account that should be recorded on the December 31" Balance Sheet. Use the following transactions to answer questions
17-19 Determine the amount of revenue or expense that would be reported at the time of the transaction under the two methods. An example transaction has been completed for you.
Question Completion:
Journalize the adjusting entry.
Answer:
Adjusting Journal Entry:
December 31:
Debit Advertising Expense $50,000
Credit Prepaid Advertising $50,000
To record the advertising expense for the year (1 month's).
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
December 1: Prepaid Advertising for 4 months = $200,000
Advertising expense for the year (1 month) = $50,000 ($200,000/4 months)
Balance of Prepaid Advertising for 3 months = $150,000 ($200,000 *3/4)
b) The Adjusting Journal entry recognizes the advertising expense that relates to the year and carry forward the prepaid balance to the next accounting year. Expenses and revenue are recorded when the services are consumed or rendered and not when cash is exchanged. In this case, the $200,000 is not recognized as advertising expense for the current year. Instead, only $50,000 is recorded as expense. The balance of $150,000 is carried forward to the next year when the service will be consumed.
The gross domestic product (GDP) of the United States is defined as the market value of allfinal goods and services produced within the United States in a given period of time. Based on this definition, indicate which of the following transactions will be included in (that is, directly increase) the GDP of the United States in 2018.
a. An accountant starts a client's 2018 tax return on April 14, 2019, finishing it just before midnight on April 15, 2019. Chocolate Express, a Swiss chocolate company, produces a chocolate bar at a plant in Illinois on December 5, 2018.
b. An elementary school student buys the chocolate bar on December 24. Rotato, a U.S. tire company, produces a set of tires at a plant in Michigan on September 13, 2018. It sells the set of tires to Speedmaster for use in the production of a two-door coupe that will be made in the United States in 2018. (Note: Focus exclusively on whether production of the set of tires increases GDP directly, and ignore the effect of production of the two-door coupe on GDP.)
c. Zippycar, a U.S. automobile company, produces a convertible at a manufacturing plant in Minneapolis on January 9, 2018. It sells the car at a dealership in San Diego on February 24, 2018.
d. Athleticus, a U.S. shoe company, produces a pair of sneakers at a plant in Vietnam on March 17, 2018. Athleticus imports the pair of sneakers into the United States on May 21, 2018.
Answer:
Chocolate Express, a Swiss chocolate company, produces a chocolate bar at a plant in Illinois on December 5, 2018.
b. An elementary school student buys the chocolate bar on December 24..
c. Zippycar, a U.S. automobile company, produces a convertible at a manufacturing plant in Minneapolis on January 9, 2018. It sells the car at a dealership in San Diego on February 24, 2018.
d. Athleticus, a U.S. shoe company, produces a pair of sneakers at a plant in Vietnam on March 17, 2018. Athleticus imports the pair of sneakers into the United States on May 21, 2018.
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports – imports
When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.
Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:
1. services not rendered to oneself
2. Activities not reported to the government
3. illegal activities
4. sale or purchase of used products
5. sale or purchase of intermediate products
The accountant's work would be included in 2019's GDP
The chocolate purchase would be included in GDP as part of consumption expenditure
Tire is an intermediate good in this question and would not be included in GDP
The purchase of the shoe from Vietnam would have no effect on GDP because it decreases net export
Magazine sells subscriptions for $60 for 30 issues. The company collects cash in advance and then mails out the magazines to subscribers each month. Apply the revenue recognition principle to determine a. when Seacoast Magazine should record revenue for this situation. b. the amount of revenue Seacoast Magazine should record for five issues.
Answer:
a. Revenue is earned when when service or product are delivered to client. Thus Seacoast Magazine should recognize the revenue when it mails the magazines to its subscribers.
b. Total amount received is $60 for 30 issues.
Amount for 1 issues = Total cost / Number of issues of magazines = $60/30 = $2 per issue
Amount of 5 issues = $2 * 5 = $10
Therefore, Seacoast Magazine should record revenue $10 for 5 issues.
On January 1, Gucci Brothers Inc. started the year with a $696,000 balance in Retained Earnings and a $602,000 balance in common stock. During the year, the company reported net income of $109,000, paid a dividend of $14,400, and issued more common stock for $30,000. What is total stockholders' equity at the end of the year?
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Given the above information, we will first calculate the common stock
Common stock = Balance in common stock + Common stock issued
= $602,000 + $30,000
= $632,000
Retained earnings
= Balance in retained earning + Net income - dividend paid
= $696,000 + $109,000 - $14,400
= $790,600
Total stockholder equity
= Common stock + retained earning
= $632,000 + $790,600
= $1,422,600

Sales revenue $ 2,122,200
Variable manufacturing expense $ 975,200
Fixed manufacturing expense $ 487,000
Variable selling and administrative expense $ 260,400
Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 276,000

The company's contribution margin ratio is closest to:__________ (Do not round Intermediate calculations. Round your answer to whole percentage)
a) 42%
b) 34%
c) 66%
d) 58%
Answer:
A. 42%
Explanation:
Given the above information,
Contribution margin ratio = (Selling price - Unitary variable cost) / Selling price
Selling price = $2,122,200 / 262,000 = $8.1
Total variable cost = Variable manufacturing expense $975,200 + Variable selling and administrative expense $260,400 = $1,235,600
Unitary variable cost = $1,235,600 / 262,000 = $4.72
Contribution margin ratio = (8.1 - 4.72)/8.1 = 41.73% = 42%

If producing 200 buttons and 200 safety pins
daily is a 50% split of resources, where do we
see the opportunity cost if you decide to
produce 300 buttons and 100 safety pins?
A. The opportunity cost is still at 50%.
B. The opportunity cost is in producing fewer safety pins.
C. The opportunity cost is in the inefficiency of producing to
products.
D. The opportunity cost is in the market share for buttons.
Answer:
The correct option is - B. The opportunity cost is in producing fewer safety pins.
Explanation:
The correct option is - B. The opportunity cost is in producing fewer safety pins.
Reason -
Initially we produce 200 buttons and 200 safety pins and there are 50% split of resources.
Now, If we produce 300 buttons and 100 safety pins and there is no change in the split of resources, then
The opportunity cost of extra 100 buttons is sale amount we would have been getting if we make that 100 safety pins.

Net profit margin = $16,060/$32,000 * 100 = 50.19%
4b. The net profit margin is better than the 30.0% earned by a close competitor.
Explanation:
The adjustment for Electric Utility does not form part of the adjusted trial balance. If we assume that the payment was eventually made on April 30, the Cash Balance will reduce by $1,560 and the total expenses will increase by the same amount with an equal reduction in the net income to $14,500. This will also reduce the net profit margin to 45.31%.

Money management includes effective tax planning. Your financial plan should include ways to lower your tax liability so you have more money to spend, invest, or donate. The key to effective tax planning is to reduce your taxable income, rather than your gross income, through all appropriate and legally available opportunities.
The act of reducing taxes in ways that are legal and compatible with the intent of Congress is called:______
Answer:
Tax Avoidance
Explanation:
A Tax is simply a compulsory payment to a local, state, or national government. It is a source of Revenue to government.
Tax Avoidance is defined as an action that an individual embark on to lreduce tax and maximize after tax income. That is to lessen one's tax liability within the limit set up by law.
In case of tax reduction or minimisation for an individual, one must;
1. Know that the arrangement is usually in the beginning of the business rather than in the course of it.
2. There must be sound commercial reasons for the arrangement.
3. Limit tax by exercising choices provided for in the Act and do not use these choices out of the manner listed by parliament. e.t.c
Starbucks opened its first store in Seoul, Korea in October 2002. The price of a tall vanilla latte is 3,000 Korean Won. In New York City, the price of a tall vanilla latte is $3.00. The exchange rate between Korean Won and U.S. dollars is Won 1,150/$. According to purchasing power parity, is the Korean Won overvalued or undervalued
Answer:
The Korean Won is undervalued
Explanation:
The Korean Won is undervalued if we determine this measure by comparing the prices of the vanilla latte at a Korean Starbucks and at an American Starbucks.
If purchasing power parity was perfectly equal, the latte at the Seoul Starbucks would be priced at $3,450, because the exchange rate is 1,150/$ and $3 x 1,1150 = 3,450, $3 being the price of the latte in New York City.
We can see that the latte in Seoul only costs 3,000 Won, so, under this comparison, the Won is undervalued by 450 Won.

A refrigerator costs $800 on an installment plan that requires a down payment of $140 and monthly payments for 12 months. What are the monthly payments of the plan?
The next three questions are based on the following information: Demand for an item is 1000 units per year. A processing fee of $10 will be charged for each order placed. The purchasing cost of the item is $20. The annual cost to carry an item in inventory is 20% of the item costs. What is the unit inventory holding cost
Answer:
$4.00
Explanation:
The cost of purchasing 1000 units per year is computed thus:
the annual cost of purchase=annual demand*cost per unit
annual demand=1000
cost per unit=$20
the annual cost of purchase=1,000*$20
the annual cost of purchase=$20,000
The cost of carrying or holding the inventory for one year is 20% of cost of purchase
Annual holding cost=20%*$20,000
Annual holding cost=$4,000
the unit inventory holding cost=annual holding cost/annual demand
the unit inventory holding cost=$4,000/1000
the unit inventory holding cost=$4.00

Tammy, a resident of Virginia, is considering purchasing a $100,000 North Carolina bond that yields 4.6% before tax. She is in the 35% Federal marginal tax bracket and the 5% state marginal tax bracket. She is aware that State of Virginia bonds of comparable risk are yielding 4.5%. However, the Virginia bonds are exempt from Virginia tax, but the North Carolina bond interest is taxable in Virginia. Tammy can deduct any state taxes paid on her Federal income tax return. In your analysis, assume that the bond amount is $100,000.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
Tammy, a resident of Virginia, is considering whether to purchase a $100, 000 North Carolina bond that yields 4.6% before tax. She is in the 35% Federal marginal tax bracket and the 5% state marginal tax bracket. Tammy is aware that State of Virginia bonds of comparable risk are yielding 4.5%. Virginia bonds are exempt from Virginia tax, but the North Carolina bond interest is taxable in Virginia. Tammy can deduct all state taxes paid on her Federal income tax return. In your analysis, assume that the bond amount is $100,000.If required, round your computations and answers to the nearest dollar. Determine the after tax income from each bond. Virginia Bond: $ 4, 600 North Carolina Bond: $ 4, 451 Which of the two options will provide the greater after-tax return to Tammy? Virginia bond
Solution :
Assuming that the bond amount is $100,000.
After the tax income from the Virginia bond is given by:
= 100,000 x 4.5%
= $ 4500
After the income tax from the North Carolina bond :
= (100,000 x 4.6%) x (1-5%) + (100,000 x 4.6% x 5% x 0.35)
= $ 4451
Therefore the Virginia bond will give an after tax higher return.

As part of its commitment to quality, the J. J. Borden manufacturing company is proposing to introduce just-in-time (JIT) production methods. Managers of the company have an intuitive feel regarding the financial benefits associated with a change to JIT, but they would like to have some data to inform their decision making in this regard. You are provided with the following data:
Item ExistingSituation AfterAdopting JIT
Manufacturing costs as percentage of sales:
Product-level support 15 % 4 %
Variable manufacturing overhead 28 10
Direct materials 30 20
Direct manufacturing labor 20 13
Other financial data:
Sales revenue $ 1,430,000 $ 1,810,000
Inventory of WIP 260,000 46,000
Other data:
Manufacturing cycle time 60 days 30 days
Inventory financing costs (per annum) 10 % 10 %

As the management accountant for the company, prepare an estimate the financial benefits associated with the adoption of JIT. Specifically, what is the estimated change in annual operating income attributable to the JIT implementation?
Answer:
A. $74,100 $954,700
B. $880,600
Explanation:
A. Preparation to estimate the financial benefits associated with the adoption of JIT
Current situation After JIT
Sales 1,430,000 1,810,000
Less costs
Production level support 214,500 72,400
(15%*1,430,000=214,500)
(4%*1,810,000=72,400)
Variable manufacturing overhead 400,400 181,000
(28%*1,430,000=400,400)
(10%*1,810,000=181,000)
Direct material 429,000 362,000
(30%*1,430,000=429,000)
(20%*1,810,000=362,000)
Direct manufacturing labor 286,000 235,300
(20%*1,430,000=286,000)
(13%*1,810,000=235,300)
Inventory financing costs 26,000 4,600
(10%*260,000=26,000)
(10%*46,000=4,600)
Total costs 1,355,900 855,300
Operating profits $74,100 $954,700
(1,430,000-1,355,900)
(1,810,000-855,300)
Therefore the the financial benefits associated with the adoption of JIT will be $74,100 $954,700
B. Preparation for the estimated change in annual operating income attributable to the JIT implementation
Current situation After JIT Change
Sales 1,430,000-1,810,000=-380,000
Less costs
Production level support 214,500-72,400 =142,100
Variable manufacturing overhead 400,400 -181,000=219,400
Direct material 429,000-362,000=67,000
Direct manufacturing labor 286,000- 235,300= 50,700
Inventory financing costs 26,000-4,600 =21,400
Total costs 1,355,900-855,300=500,600
Operating profits 74,100-954,700=880,600
Therefore the estimated change in annual operating income attributable to the JIT implementation will be 880,600
Avery Corporation's target capital structure is 35% debt, 10% preferred, and 55% common equity. The interest rate on new debt is 6.50%, the yield on the preferred is 6.00%, the cost of common from reinvested earnings is 11.25%, and the tax rate is 25%. The firm will not be issuing any new common stock. What is Avery's WACC
Answer:
8.15%
Explanation:
The computation of the weighted average cost of capital as follows;
= After Cost of debt × weightage of debt + cost of preferred stock × weight of preferred stock + cost of common equity × weight of equity
= 6.50% × (1 - 0.40) × 35 ÷ 100 + 6% × 10 ÷ 100 + 11.25% × 55 ÷ 100
= 1.37% + 0.60% + 6.19%
= 8.15%
The distance between defects in an automated weaving process at Craft Mills, Inc. is exponentially distributed. On average there are 0.025 defects per foot. Use the random number 0.749 to simulate the distance between two defects. Give your answer to 3 decimal places. (Note: For this problem, the average (represented by tau) would be the average distance (in feet) between defects.)
Answer:
55.292 feets
Explanation:
Given that :
Average defect per foot, λ = 0.025
Random number generated = 0.791
Distance between two defects :
b(x) = 1 - e^-λx = random number
1 - e^-λx = 0.749
e^-λx = 0.749 - 1
λ = 0.025
e^-0.025x = - 0.251
Take the In of both sides ;
-0.025x = - ln(0.251)
0.025x = In(0.251)
x = In(0.251) / 0.025
x = 1.382302 / 0.025
x = 55.29209
x = 55.292 feets
Hence, distance between two defects is 55.292 feets
Pack-and-Go, a new competitor to FedEx and UPS, does intra-city package deliveries in seven major metropolitan areas. The performance of Pack-and-Go is measured by management as: (1) delivery time (relative to budgeted delivery time), (2) on-time delivery rates (defined as agreed-upon delivery date/time plus or minus a specified cushion), and (3) percentage of lost or damaged deliveries. In response to competitive pressures, Pack-and-Go is evaluating an investment in new technology that would improve customer service and delivery quality, particularly in terms of items (2) and (3) above. The annual cost of the new technology, for each of the seven metropolitan areas serviced by Pack-and-Go, is expected to be $80,000. You have gathered the following information regarding delivery performance under both existing operations and after implementing the new technology:
Decision Alernative
After Implementing
Item Current System New Technology
On-time delivery rate 80% 95%
Variable cost per package lost or damaged $30 $30
Allocated fixed cost per package lost or damaged $10 $10
Annual number of packages lost or damaged 300 100
Based on a recent marketing study commissioned by Pack-and-Go, the company estimates that each percentage point increase in the on-time performance rate would lead to an annual revenue increase of $10,000. The average contribution margin ratio for packages delivered by Pack-and-Go is estimated as 40%.
Required:
1. From a financial perspective, should pack-and-Go invest in the new technology?
2. Based on the data collected by Pack-and-Go, the company is fairly confident about the reduction in costs associated with lost or damaged packages. However, because of uncertainties in terms of pricing in the markets in which Pack-and-Go operates, it is less sure about the predicted increase in revenues associated with the implementation of the new technology. What is the break-even increase in annual revenue that would justify the investment in the new technology?
Answer:
Pack-and-Go
1. From a financial perspective, Pack-and-Go should invest in the new technology. It will enjoy a contribution margin of 97.5%.
2. The break-even increase in annual revenue that would justify the investment in the new technology is:
Fixed cost = Contribution
$80,000 = Contribution - $8,000
= $72,000 ($80,000 - $8,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Expected cost of new technology investment = $80,000
Delivery performance:
Decision Alternative
After Implementing
Item Current System New Technology
On-time delivery rate 80% 95%
Variable cost per package lost
or damaged $30 $30
Allocated fixed cost per
package lost or damaged $10 $10
Annual number of packages
lost or damaged 300 100
Variable cost for lost or
damaged packages $9,000 (300*$30) $3,000 (100*$30)
Fixed cost for lost or
damaged packages 3,000 (300*$10) $1,000 (100*$10)
Total cost for lost or
damaged packages $12,000 $4,000
Increase in the on-time performance rate = 95% - 80% = 15%
Increase in annual Revenue = $10,000 * 15 = $150,000
Savings from lost or damaged packages = 8,000 ($12,000 - $4,000)
Total savings from new technology = $158,000
Annual cost of new technology = (80,000)
Net savings from new technology = $78,000
Contribution margin based on net savings = $78,000/$80,000 * 100 = 97.5%
Average contribution margin = 40%
