Explanation:
A product that is not an object or something that is owned is called a non-economic good.
Identify the possible reason or reasons for this stark difference between income inequality and consumption inequality. Intergenerational mobility allows children to consume more than their parents. The poverty line does not reflect relative poverty. The richest quintile has the ability to save a larger percentage of its income. Individuals experiencing temporary fluctuations in their incomes are more likely to maintain moderate spending habits.
Answer:
The richest quintile has the ability to save a larger percentage of its income. Individuals experiencing temporary fluctuations in their incomes are more likely to maintain moderate spending habits.Explanation:
First part of this question reads:
In the United States, the richest quintile of the population receives 13 times as much income as the poorest quintile. However, the richest quintile only spends 4 times as much as the poorest quintile.
The richest quantile can afford to save more than the poorest quantile because they get enough income to manage their daily needs and then save. The poorest quantile on the other hand face a daily struggle and so have to spend all or most of their income to survive.
When the richer quantile goes through temporary fluctuations, they maintain moderate spending because they know it is temporary and so they keep saving. This is not the case for the poorer quantiles who have to spend according to their income - regardless of its fluctuating - to survive.
In late 2020, the Nicklaus Corporation was formed. The corporate charter authorizes the issuance of 6,000,000 shares of common stock carrying a $1 par value, and 2,000,000 shares of $5 par value, noncumulative, nonparticipating preferred stock. On January 2, 2021, 4,000,000 shares of the common stock are issued in exchange for cash at an average price of $10 per share. Also on January 2, all 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock are issued at $20 per share.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record these transactions.
2. Prepare the shareholders' equity section of the Nicklaus balance sheet as of March 31, 2021. (Assume net income for the first quarter 2021 was $1,750,000.)
Part B
During 2021, the Nicklaus Corporation participated in three treasury stock transactions:
On June 30, 2021, the corporation reacquires 250,000 shares for the treasury at a price of $12 per share.
On July 31, 2021, 25,000 treasury shares are reissued at $15 per share.
On September 30, 2021, 25,000 treasury shares are reissued at $10 per share.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record these transactions.
2. Prepare the Nicklaus Corporation shareholders' equity section as it would appear in a balance sheet prepared at September 30, 2021. (Assume net income for the second and third quarter was $3,250,000.)
Part C
On October 1, 2021, Nicklaus Corporation receives permission to replace its $1 par value common stock (6,000,000 shares authorized, 4,000,000 shares issued, and 3,800,000 shares outstanding) with a new common stock issue having a $0.50 par value. Since the new par value is one-half the amount of the old, this represents a 2-for-1 stock split. That is, the shareholders will receive two shares of the $0.50 par stock in exchange for each share of the $1 par stock they own. The $1 par stock will be collected and destroyed by the issuing corporation.
On November 1, 2021, the Nicklaus Corporation declares a $0.18 per share cash dividend on common stock and a $0.35 per share cash dividend on preferred stock. Payment is scheduled for December 1, 2021, to shareholders of record on November 15, 2021.
On December 2, 2021, the Nicklaus Corporation declares a 1% stock dividend payable on December 28, 2021, to shareholders of record on December 14. At the date of declaration, the common stock was selling in the open market at $10 per share. The dividend will result in 76,000 (0.01 Ã 7,600,000) additional shares being issued to shareholders.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record the declaration and payment of these stock and cash dividends.
2. Prepare the December 31, 2021, shareholders' equity section of the balance sheet for the Nicklaus Corporation. (Assume net income for the fourth quarter was $2,750,000.)
3. Prepare a statement of shareholders' equity for Nicklaus Corporation for 2021.

9. Stabilization Suppose the US educational system improves, making workers more productive. If the federal reserve is trying to stabilize the price level in response, they should A. do nothing, because prices will not change anyhow. B. do nothing, because prices cannot be prevented from changing in the long run C. sell bonds in open market operations. D. lower the reserve requirement. E. increase the discount rate F. Raise taxes. G. Increase government spending.
Answer:
d
Explanation:
If workers become more productive, the supply curve shifts rightward. As a result prices would fall. In a bid to stabilise price, the federal reserve would conduct an expansionary monetary policy to increase money supply in the economy
Expansionary monetary policy : these are polices taken in order to increase money supply. When money supply increases, aggregate demand increases. reducing reserve requirement and open market purchase are ways of carrying out expansionary monetary policy
Increasing discount rate and selling bonds are examples of contractionary monetary policies. Contractionary monetary policy : these are policies taken to reduce money supply.
Raising tax is an example of contractionary fiscal policy
Increasing government spending is an example of expansionary fiscal policy
At December 31, 2021, Moonlight Bay Resorts had the following deferred income tax items: Deferred tax asset of $58 million related to a current liability Deferred tax asset of $38 million related to a noncurrent liability Deferred tax liability of $124 million related to a noncurrent asset Deferred tax liability of $76 million related to a current asset Moonlight Bay should report in its December 31, 2021, balance sheet a: Multiple Choice Noncurrent deferred tax liability of $104 million. Current deferred tax liability of $20 million. Noncurrent deferred tax asset of $86,000 and a non-current deferred tax liability of $48 million.
Answer: Noncurrent deferred tax liability of $104 million
Explanation:
Deferred tax asset of $58 million related to a current liability
Deferred tax asset of $38 million related to a noncurrent liability Deferred tax liability of $124 million related to a noncurrent asset
Deferred tax liability of $76 million related to a current asset
The total defered tax liability from the question will be:
= $124 million + $76 million
= $200 million
The total defered tax asset will be:
= $58 million + $38 million
= $96 million
Then, the net deffered tax liability will be: = $200 million - $96 million
= $104 million
The answer is "Noncurrent deferred tax liability of $104 million".
Gabuat Corporation, which has only one product, has provided the following data concerning its most recent month of operations: Selling price $ 164 Units in beginning inventory 0 Units produced 3,700 Units sold 3,260 Units in ending inventory 440 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $ 51 Direct labor $ 32 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 6 Variable selling and administrative expense $ 6 Fixed costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $88,800 Fixed selling and administrative expense $32,600 The total gross margin for the month under the absorption costing approach is:
Answer:
$155,700
Explanation:
Absorption costing
Sales $164 × 3,260 = $534,640
Less cost of goods sold
Opening inventory
Add variable cost of goods manufactured
[3,700 × ($51 + $32 + $6 = $89)] = $329,300
Fixed manufacturing cost
$88,800
Cost of goods available for sale
$418,100
Less ending inventory 440 × $89
$39,160
Cost of goods sold
$378,940
Gross margin
$155,700
Less variable selling and administration expenses $6 × 3,260
$19,560
Fixed selling and administrative expenses
$32,600
The total gross margin for the month under the absorption costing approach is $155,700
During 2017, Waterway Industries expected Job No. 26 to cost $300000 of overhead, $500000 of materials, and $200000 in labor. Waterway applied overhead based on direct labor cost. Actual production required an overhead cost of $290000, $470000 in materials used, and $190000 in labor. All of the goods were completed. What amount was transferred to Finished Goods
Answer:
$945,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount transferred to the finished goods is shown below:
= Material + labor + overhead
= $470,000 + $190,000 + $190,000 × $300,000 ÷ $200,000
= $470,000 + $190,000 + $285,000
= $945,000
hence, the amount transferred is $945,000
Kyoko lives in Detroit and loves to eat desserts. She spends her entire weekly allowance on pudding and pie. A bowl of pudding is priced at $1.00, and a piece of pecan pie is priced at $4.00. At her current consumption point, Kyoko's marginal rate of substitution (MRS) of pudding for pie is 5. This means that Kyoko is willing to trade five bowls of pudding per week for one piece of pie per week.
Does Caroline's current bundle maximize her utility-in other words, make her as well off as possible? If not, how should she change it to maximize her utility?
A. Caroline could increase her utility by buying more jello and less pie per week.
B. Caroline's current bundle maximizes her utility, and she should keep it unchanged.
C. Caroline could increase her utility by buying less jello and more pie per week.
Answer:
C. Caroline (Kyoko) could increase her utility by buying less jello (pudding) and more pie per week.
Explanation:
the rate of exchange = $4 / $1 = 4
marginal rate of substitution = 5
Kyoko can maximize her utility by increasing the consumption of pecan pie. She should increase her consumption of pecan pie until the marginal rate of substitution = 4.
Consider the effects of inflation in an economy composed of only two people: Larry, a bean farmer, and Megan, a rice farmer. Larry and Megan both always consume equal amounts of rice and beans. In 2016 the price of beans was $1, and the price of rice was $4.
Suppose that in 2017 the price of beans was $2 and the price of rice was $8.
Inflation was.
Indicate whether Larry and Megan were better off, worse off, or unaffected by the changes in prices.
Better Off
Worse Off
Unaffected
Larry
Megan
Now suppose that in 2017 the price of beans was $2 and the price of rice was $4.80.
In this case, inflation was.
Indicate whether Larry and Megan were better off, worse off, or unaffected by the changes in prices.
Better Off
Worse Off
Unaffected
Larry
Megan
Now suppose that in 2017, the price of beans was $2 and the price of rice was $1.60.
In this case, inflation was.
Indicate whether Larry and Megan were better off, worse off, or unaffected by the changes in prices.
Better Off
Worse Off
Unaffected
Larry
Megan
What matters more to Larry and Megan?
The relative price of rice and beans
The overall inflation rate
Answer:
a.
Inflation = (2017 price of basket - 2016 price of basket) / 2016 price of basket
2016 price of basket = 1 + 4 = $5
2017 price of basket = 2 + 8 = 10
Inflation
= (10 - 5) / 5
= 100%
Both Megan and Larry would be unaffected by the changes in prices because the prices doubled for both of them.
__________________________________________________________
b. Now suppose that in 2017 the price of beans was $2 and the price of rice was $4.80.
Market basket in 2017 = 2 + 4.8 = $6.80
Inflation
= (6.8 - 5) / 5
= 36%
Larry will be better off because the price of beans increased by 100% which is more than the inflation rate of 36%.
Megan's price increase = (4.8 - 4)/4 = 20%.
Inflation is 36%.
Megan will be worse off as inflation is higher than the increase in price of rice.
__________________________________________________________
c. Now suppose that in 2017, the price of beans was $2 and the price of rice was $1.60.
Market Basket in 2017 = 2 + 1.6 = $3.60
Inflation = (3.6 - 5)/5 = -28%
Larry will be better off because his prices have risen while general inflation has fallen.
Megan's price decrease = ( 1.6 - 4)/4 = -60%. Inflation was -28%.
Megan will be worse off because inflation decreased less than her prices did.
__________________________________________________________
d. What matters more to Larry and Megan?
The relative price of rice and beans
This matters more to them because a change in prices of the commodities they sell could either benefit them or give them a loss regardless of the inflation rate.
Suppose three engineers come to you with a plan for a disruptive, yet-to-be developed software program that seems compelling. They are asking for $10 million, the amount they think they will need over the next three years to reach cash flow positive. They have a pitch deck that includes a proposed deal. They are offering you 25% of the company. The founders own the remaining 75%. You will buy common stock, and are entitled to one of four seats on the board of directors; they hold the other three seats. One slide in the deck contains a detailed prediction of the value of the company. If you invest $10 million, you will own shares that are worth at least $50 million at the end of the third year.
Required:
a. What do you think of this proposed deal?
b. What counteroffer would you make?
Answer:
Explanation:
The Proposed bargain or deal is supportive of the business visionaries instead of the financial backer(investor) since all the capital is coming from the financial backer and the investor will be receiving just only 25% for the bargain or deal while he faces all the challenges posed or loss of capital. The business visionaries are not placing in any of their own personal capital but only their idea. They likewise have a bigger say in the administration of the business and the financial backer has no power over the choice since he conveys just 25% votes. Consequently, it's not a good bargain or deal for the financial backer considering the risk-reward ratio.
The counter-offer will include raising a proposed equity percent rate to half (i.e 50%). In addition to that, the financial backer needs to demand another seat on the board with the goal that they have equivalent authority over the administration and its choices. The most reduced the financial backer can go down is equity of 40% stake.
Ace Leasing acquires equipment and leases it to customers under long-term sales-type leases. Ace earns interest under these arrangements at a 6% annual rate. Ace leased a machine it purchased for $790,000 under an arrangement that specified annual payments beginning at the commencement of the lease for five years. The lessee had the option to purchase the machine at the end of the lease term for $200,000 when it was expected to have a residual value of $350,000. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Calculate the amount of the annual lease payments. (Enter amounts as positive values rounded to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer:
$143,750
Explanation:
We have to first calculate the present value of the bargain purchase option:
PV = $200,000 / (1 + 6%)⁵ = $149,451.63
net lease amount = $790,000 - $149,452 = $640,548
PVIF Annuity due, 6%, 5 payments = 4.546
Annual payment = $640,548 / 4.456 = $143,750

Robin is granted 1,500 shares of restricted stock from her employer when the stock is trading at a fair market value of $25 per share. She is anticipating significant appreciation and wishes to minimize her future tax burden. As a result, she makes a Section 83(b) election. Assuming she is in the 35% marginal income tax bracket, how much income tax that will be due on this transaction in the year of election
Answer: $13125
Explanation:
Firstly, we should note that in section 83(B), tax is being paid based on the stock's fair market value. Therefore, the income tax that will be due on this transaction in the year of election will be:
= Number of shares × Price × Tax rate
= 1500 × $25 × 35%
= 1500 × $25 × 0.35
= $13125
Refer to Table 28-2. The labor-force participation rate of Aridia in 2012 was
O a. 88.9%.
O b. 53.3%
O c. 50%.
O d. 56.25%.
Answer: 56.25%
Explanation:
The labor force participation rate refers to the active workforce of a country. The following information can be derived from the question:
Adult population = 3200
Number of employed = 1600
Number of unemployed = 200
The labor-force participation rate of Aridia in 2012 will be:
= {(Number of employed + Number of unemployed) / Adult population} × 100
= (1600 + 200) / 3200 × 100
= 1800/3200 × 100
= 0.5625 × 100
= 56.25%

= $154,900
You just decided to begin saving for retirement. You will make deposits of $1,000 per month into a retirement account that earns 8.00% p.a. The first deposit is made today and the last deposit will be made when you retire exactly 30 years from today. (Note: you make 361 total monthly deposits into your retirement account.) You will begin to make withdrawals from the account the first month after you retire. If you plan to live an additional 25 years and leave $900,000 to your heirs, you will be able to withdraw $_____ each month. (Note: you make 300 total monthly withdrawals from your retirement account.)
Answer:
Monthly withdraw= $4,752.01
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Monthly deposit= $1,000
Number of perios= 361 months
Interest rate= 0.08/12= 0.0067
First, we need to calculate the Future Value at the moment of retirement:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
FV= {1,000*[(1.0067^361) - 1]} / 0.0067
FV= $1,513,584.37
Now, we can calculate the monthly withdraw:
PV= 1,513,584.37 - 900,000= $613,584.27
Monthly withdraw= (FV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]
Monthly withdraw= (613,584.37*0.0067) / [1 - (1.0067^-300)]
Monthly withdraw= $4,752.01

9. Calculating the price elasticity of supply Rajiv is a college student who lives in Chicago and does some consulting work for extra cash. At a wage of $40 per hour, he is willing to work 7 hours per week. At $50 per hour, he is willing to work 10 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Rajiv's labor supply between the wages of $40 and $50 per hour is approximately , which means that Rajiv's supply of labor over this wage range is .
Answer:
PES = 1.59 elastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity of supply = percentage change in quantity supplied / percentage change in price
% change in quantity = (Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2] = (10 - 7) / [(10 + 7) / 2] = 3 / 8.5 = 35.29%
% change in price = (50 - 40) / [(50 + 40) / 2] = 10 / 45 = 22.22%
PES = 35.29% / 22.22% = 1.59 elastic
Strongheart Enterprises anticipated selling 27,000 units of a major product and paying sales commissions of $6 per unit. Actual sales and sales commissions totaled 27,500 units and $171,400, respectively. If the company used a flexible budget for performance evaluations, Strongheart would report a cost variance of: Multiple Choice $6,400F. $9,400F. None of the answers is correct. $9,400U. $6,400U.
Answer:
Flexible budget cost variance= $6,400 unfavorable
Explanation:
To calculate the flexible budget cost variance, we need to use the following formula:
Flexible budget cost variance= (standard costs*actual quantity) - actual costs
Flexible budget cost variance= (6*27,500) - 171,400
Flexible budget cost variance= 165,000 - 171,400
Flexible budget cost variance= $6,400 unfavorable
