Determine the incremental rate of return (ROR) value of the two alternatives below. Hint: Convert RoR value to a percentage. If the answer is 10%, enter 10. Do not enter 0.01. A B First Cost, $ 135,000 185,000 Operating Cost, $/year 9,000 5,200 Salvage value, $ 9,000 10,000 Life, n [infinity] [infinity]
Answer:m Incremental rate of return (ROR) = 0.076 ≈7.6%
Explanation:
Given that;
A B
First Cost $ 135,000 185,000
Operating Cost $/year 9,000 5,200
Salvage value $ 9,000 10,000
Life, n [infinity ∞] [infinity ∞]
As alternatives have infinite life, salvage value will have no effect on calculations
Therefore;
Incremental initial cost (B-A) = 185000 - 135000 = 50000
Incremental annual cost (B-A) = 5200 - 9000 = -3800 (Annual savings)
Present worth of infinite annuity = A / i
Incremental rate of return ROR = 3800 / 50000 = 0.076 ≈7.6%

A Plus Appliances sells dishwashers with a four-year warranty. In 2019, sales revenue for dishwashers is $94,000. The company estimates warranty expense at 4.5% of revenues. What is the total estimated warranty payable of A Plus Appliances as of December 31,2019? A Plus Appliances began operating in 2019. (Round your final answer to the nearest dollar.)
Answer:
$4230
Explanation:
Given that, the sales revenue to the dishwashers is equal to $94,000
Also the company estimated warranty expense cost is equal to 4.5% of revenues,
Thus, the estimated warranty payable can be determined by the following formula:
Annual sales revenue for the dishwashers * warranty expense revenues
= $94,000 * 4.5% = $94,000 * 0.045
= $4230
Hence, the total estimated warranty payable of A Plus Appliances as of December 31, 2019 = $4230
Sunland Company reported the following information for 2016: October November December Budgeted sales $1300000 $1200000 $1540000 All sales are on credit. Customer amounts on account are collected 50% in the month of sale and 50% in the following month. How much cash will Sunland receive in November?
Answer:
Total cash receipts - November = $1250000
Explanation:
The credit sales are collected for in such a manner that the 50% amount of this month's sale and the 50% amount of previous month's sales are collected in the correct month. Thus, when calculating the cash receipts for November, we know that the 50% of collections will be for October's sales and the 50% of collections will be from the November's sales.
Cash receipts in November:
From October's sales = 1300000 * 0.5 = $650000
From November's sales = 1200000 * 0.5 = $60000
Total cash receipts - November = 650000 + 600000
Total cash receipts - November = $1250000

Answer:
current market price = $953.29
Explanation:
the market price of the bond = present value of the face value + present value of coupon payments
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3.865%)¹⁸ = $505.31
PV of coupon payments = $35 x 12.79935 (PV annuity factor, 3.865%, 18 periods) = $447.98
current market price = $505.31 + $447.98 = $953.29

A company had a beginning balance in retained earnings of $400,000. It had net income of $50,000 and declared and paid cash dividends of $55,000 in the current period. The ending balance in retained earnings equals:
Answer:
$395,000
Explanation:
A company has a beginning balance of $400,000
The company has a net income of $50,000
The company also declared and paid a cash dividend of $55,000
Therefore, the ending balance in the retained earnings can be calculated as follows
Beginning balance+ net income -Dividend paid
= $400,000+$50,000-$55,000
= $395,000
Hence the ending balance in the retained earnings is $395,000
Sheridan Company had a 40 percent tax rate. Given the following pre-tax amounts, what would be the income tax expense reported on the face of the income statement?
Sales revenue $ 500,000
Cost of goods sold 300,000
Salaries and wages expense 40,000
Depreciation expense 55,000
Dividend revenue 45,000
Utilities expense 5,000
Extraordinary loss 50,000
Interest expense 10,000
a. $54,000
b. $34,000
c. $36,000
d. $16,000
Answer:
a. $54,000
Explanation:
The computation of income tax expense reported on the face of the income statement is shown below:-
Income before tax = Sales revenue + Dividend revenue - Cost of goods sold - Salaries and wages expenses - Depreciation expenses - Utilities expenses - Interest expenses
= $500,000 + $45,000 - $300,000 - $40,000 - $55,000 - $5,000 - $10,000
= $135,000
Income tax expenses = Before Income tax × Income tax rate
= $135,000 × 40%
= $54,000

What is the difference in operating income between processing the cat bowls further versus selling them off at the split-off point?
Answer: -$1,920
Explanation:
Operating Income if processed further would be;
= (Sales * Price) - Incremental Cost
= (1,000 * $14) - 4,920
= 14,000 - 4,920
= $9,080
Operating Income if sold off at split-off point;
= Sales * Price
= 1,000 * $11
= $11,000
Difference
= Processed Further - Sold at split-off
= 9,080 - 11,000
= -$1,920
Difference would be an Operating (loss) of $1,920.
A corporation has 50,000 shares of $25 par stock outstanding. If the corporation issues a 3-for-1 stock split, the number of shares outstanding after the split will be a.50,000 shares b.100,000 shares c.150,000 shares d.16,666 shares
Answer:
Option C
Number of shares outstanding after split = 150,000 units
Explanation:
A stock split occurs where a company creates additional shares in units such the total nominal value of the outstanding shares remains the same. With a stock split, the total outstanding shares increases without a change in the total nominal value while the nominal value per share reduces.
Total shares before the split = 50,000
Total outstanding shares after split
= 50,000 × 3 = 150,000
Number of shares outstanding after split = 150,000 units
Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) allow people to shelter some of their income from taxation. Suppose the maximum annual contribution to such accounts is $5,000 per person. Now suppose there is an increase in the maximum contribution, from $5,000 to $8,000 per year.
a. This change in the tax treatment of saving causes the equilibrium interest rate in the market for loanable funds to _ and the level of investment spending to _.
b. An investment tax credit effectively lowers the tax bill of any firm that purchases new capital in the relevant time period. Suppose the government repeals a previously existing investment tax credit.
The repeal of the previously existing tax credit causes the interest rate to _______ and the level of investment to ________.
c. Initially, the government's budget is balanced, then the government responds to the conclusion of a war by significantly reducing defense spending without changing taxes.
This change in spending causes the government to run a budget __________ which ________ national saving. This causes the interest rate to ________ and the level of investment spending to _______
Answer:
a. Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) allow people to shelter some of their income from taxation. Suppose the maximum annual contribution to such accounts is $5,000 per person. Now suppose there is an increase in the maximum contribution, from $5,000 to $8,000 per year.
This change in the tax treatment of saving causes the equilibrium interest rate in the market for loanable funds to _decrease and the level of investment spending to increase_.
b. An investment tax credit effectively lowers the tax bill of any firm that purchases new capital in the relevant time period. Suppose the government repeals a previously existing investment tax credit.
The repeal of the previously existing tax credit causes the interest rate to ___increase____ and the level of investment to ___decrease_____.
c. Initially, the government's budget is balanced, then the government responds to the conclusion of a war by significantly reducing defense spending without changing taxes.
This change in spending causes the government to run a budget ___surplus_______ which ___increases_____ national saving. This causes the interest rate to ___decrease_____ and the level of investment spending to __increase_____
Explanation:
Interest rate decreases with increased savings and this results to increased investment as funds are available at affordable costs. The situation is reversed when the savings are decreased, since the interest rate will increase as there are less savings for investment purposes.
There is a continuous interaction between taxation, savings, government spending, inflation, and investment versus interest rates. This means that interest rates also reflect these factors put together. This why in both fiscal and monetary policies, governments try to strike some balance in order to direct the economy towards desired targets. For example, when the government wants to stimulate the economy, it works to reduce interest rates in order to encourage investments, but this also lowers the propensity to save and encourages the propensity to spend, which trigger inflation and increases interest rate as an aftermath. And this seems to be an endless vicious or virtuous circle, depending on what is achieved by the monetary and fiscal measures in operation.
In the aftermath of the global economic crisis that started to take hold in 2008, U.S. government budget deficits increased dramatically, yet interest rates on U.S. Treasury debt fell sharply and stayed low for quite some time. Does this make sense? Why or why not
Answer and Explanation:
the supply effect of large deficits should cause interest rates to go up. The economic crisis caused wealth and income to be lower
which brought about a depression inTreasury bond demand, corporate bond supply also fell the more as investment opportunities reduced. A greater leftward shift in the bond
supply curve than the rightward shift in the bond demand curve would bring about a rise in
bond prices and a reduction in interest rates. Because off the seriousness of the global crisis, the United States
treasury debt became safe for forms of investment, with relative risk falling and liquidity
for U.S. treasury debt rising.
This then increased the U.S. treasury bond demand, resulting into higher
bond prices and lower yields.

You want to have $12,500 in 10 years for a dream vacation. If you can earn an interest rate of .3 percent per month, how much will you have to deposit today?
Answer:
$8,778
Explanation:
To find the amount of money that you will have to deposit today, you have to use the formula to calculate the present value:
PV=FV/(1+i)^n
PV= present value
FV= future value= 12,500
i= interest rate= 0.003*12(to calculate the rate per year)= 0.036
n= number of periods of time= 10
PV=12,500/(1+0.036)^10
PV=12,500/1.424
PV=8,778
According to this, you will have to deposit today $8,778.

A newspaper advertisement for Cashmere Closet states "This Saturday 9 a.m., 1 Red Cashmere Scarf, worth $299.95… $10.00 First Come First Served." Which of the following statements is false?
A. The ad is clear and specific about what was being offered and asked for in exchange.
B. The ad lacks intent to constitute an offer.
C. The number of people who have the power of acceptance is limited.
Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
In simple words, The seller must have intention of making the offer. These are determined first from offeree 's place that there is intention to make an bid. When a fair person in the offerer 's position assumes that the terms or acts of the offeror represent an offer, that is an bid. It is an empirical, and not a moral, criterion for deciding that there is an desire to accept an bid.
Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B .
A stock has a beta of 1.28, the expected return on the market is 12%, and the risk-free rate is 4.5%. Using the CAPM, what is the expected return on this stock
Answer:
14.10%
Explanation:
The calculation of expected return on this stock is shown below:-
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
= 4.5% + 1.28 × (12% - 4.5%)
= 4.5% + 1.28 × 7.5%
= 4.5% + 9.6%
= 14.10%
The Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also called as the market risk premium
hence, the expected rate of return is 14.10%

A bond with a $1,000 face value and an 8 percent annual coupon pays interest semiannually. The bond will mature in 15 years. The yield to maturity is 11 percent. The price of the bond should be: Do no round intermediate computations. Round the final answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
$781.99
Explanation:
The price of the bond can be computed using excel pv function given below:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is the semiannual yield to maturity i.e11%*6/12=5.5%
nper is the number of semiannual coupons the bond would i.e 30 semiannual coupons in 15 years
pmt is the amount of semiannual coupon=$1000*8%*6/12=$40
fv is the face value of $1000
=-pv(5.5%,30,40,1000)=$781.99
Consider the following $1,000 par value zero-coupon bonds: Bond Years to Maturity Yield to Maturity A 1 6.00 % B 2 7.00 % C 3 7.99 % D 4 9.41 % E 5 10.70 % The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years from now should be _________.
Answer:
16.01%
Explanation:
The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years from now is determined using the below formula:
The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years=(1+YTM5)^5/(1+YTM4)^4-1
YTM5 is the yield to maturity in year 5 i.e 10.70%
YTM4 is the yield to maturity in year 4 i.e 9.41%
The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years=(1+10.70%)^5/(1+9.41%)^4-1
The expected 1-year interest rate 4 years=16.01%
A customer subscribes to a $10,000 limited partnership interest. The commission is $1,000. The up-front costs are $500 for legal expenditures, and $500 for organization costs. What is the customer's beginning tax basis

What is the present value of your windfall if the appropriate discount rate is 8%?
Answer:
$5,765.35
Explanation:
Preparation of the present value of your windfall if the appropriate discount rate is 8%
To find the present value we are going to use this formula
PV = FV / (1 + r)^t
Where,
FV=$2,000,000
r=8%
t=76
Let plug in the formula
PV = 2,000,000 / (1 + .08)^⁷⁶
PV = $2,000,000 / (1.98)^⁷⁶
PV=$2,000,000/346.90
PV=$5,765.35
Therefore the present value will be $5,765.35
Consider a potential merger between two hypothetical beer companies. Prior to the merger, the first, Ann Hy, is worth $150 billion and the second, Czar Bosch, is worth $100 billion. If they merge, they will gain $30 billion in increased value from reduced costs and additional sales (in present discounted value). Thus the combined value of the new entity (called Ann Hy-Czar Bosch) would be $280 billion. How much more could Czar Bosch hope to get by using the theory of the pie instead of proportional division
Answer:
$3 billion more
Explanation:
Calculation of the amount that Czar Bosch could hope to get by using the theory of the pie instead of proportional division
If we are to use the theory of the pie instead of the proportional division this means that when using the proportional division, their would be likelihood that Czar Bosch would get an amount that is proportional to their market cap, 40% of the $30 billion, or $12 billion and in a situation where the they decide to split the pie this means that Czar Bosch would either get$15 billion or $3 billion more

Rediger Inc., a manufacturing Corporation, has provided the following data for the month of June. The balance in the Work in Process inventory account was $40,000 at the beginning of the month and $26,000 at the end of the month. During the month, the Corporation incurred direct materials cost of $58,600 and direct labor cost of $33,400. The actual manufacturing overhead cost incurred was $54,800. The manufacturing overhead cost applied to Work in Process was $54,600. The cost of goods manufactured for June was:
Answer:
$160,600
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of goods manufactured is shown below:
= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + manufacturing cost applied + beginning work in process - ending work in process
= $58,600 + $33,400 + $54,600 + $40,000 - $26,000
= $160,600
Hence, the cost of goods manufactured for June is $160,600
Great Lakes Packing has two bond issues outstanding. The first issue has a coupon rate of 3.82 percent, a par value of $1,000 per bond, matures in 6 years, has a total face value of $5.2 million, and is quoted at 103 percent of face value. The second issue has a coupon rate of 6.59 percent, a par value of $1,000 per bond, matures in 14 years, has a total face value of $9.5 million, and is quoted at 107 percent of face value. Both bonds pay interest semiannually. The company's tax rate is 35 percent. What is the firm's weighted average aftertax cost of debt
Answer:
3.22%
Explanation:
we must first determine the yield to maturity of both bonds in order to determine their before tax cost of debt:
YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]
YTM Bond₁ = {19.10 + [(1,000 - 1,030)/12]} / [(1,000 + 1,030)/2] = 16.6 / 1,015 = 0.01635 x 2 = 3.27%
YTM Bond₂ = {32.95 + [(1,000 - 1,070)/28]} / [(1,000 + 1,070)/2] = 0.0294 x 2 = 5.88%
firm's weighted after tax cost of debt = {[($5.2 / $14.7) x 3.27%] x (1 - 0.35)} + {[($9.5 / $14.7) x 5.88%] x (1 - 0.35)} = 0.75% + 2.47% = 3.22%
