The fair values of all of Sirius's assets and liabilities were equal to their book values except for inventory that had a fair value of $85,000, land that had a fair value of $60,000, and buildings and equipment that had a fair value of $250,000. Buildings and equipment have a remaining useful life of 10 years with zero salvage value. Paradox Company decided to employ push-down accounting for the acquisition. Subsequent to the combination, Sirius continued to operate as a separate company. Based on the preceding information, what amount will be present in the revaluation capital account, when consolidating entries are prepared?
Answer:
$0
Explanation:
The fair value is the value above the book value. The financial statements are prepared at historic cost and when the value of assets rises a revaluation account is created to present financial statements accurate. The fair values of Sirius's assets are equal to book value and all assets are presented at cost or book value. There will be no revaluation charged to the consolidated statement.
A government worker surveys a number of households and comes up with the following information: there were a total of 90 people in the households, 10 of the people were children under 16, 10 of the people were retired but still capable of working, 35 people had full-time jobs, 5 had part-time jobs, 5 were stay-at-home parents, 5 were full-time students over the age of 16, 5 were disabled people who could not work, 10 people had no job but were looking for jobs, and there were 5 people who wanted a job but were not looking for a job.
According to the information in the survey, the unemployment rate is:_______
Answer:
27%
Explanation:
Number of Persons in the Household = 90
Neither Employed Nor Unemployed
Children Under 16 =10Disabled = 5Retired =10Stay at Home Parents = 5Full Time Students over the age of 16= 5Total =35
Unemployed
10 people had no job but were looking for jobs5 people who wanted a job but were not looking for a job.Total =15Employed
35 people had full-time jobs5 had part-time jobsTotal =35+5=40
Total Labour Force = Unemployed +Employed = 40+15 =55
Unemployment Rate = (Unemployed People / Total Labor) x 100
=15/55 X 100
=27%
According to the information in the survey, the unemployment rate is: 27%
g Suppose the banking system has $100,000 in outstanding deposits and actual reserves of $50,000. Using the simple money multiplier formula (i.e., individuals hold no cash), if the required reserve ratio is 40%, the maximum possible amount that the banking system can now add to the money supply is:Group of answer choices$15,000$20,000$25,000$40,000
Answer: $25,000
Explanation:
The Money Multiplier allows us to calculate how much money banks can create in an economic given a certain reserve ratio.
The formula is;
Money Multiplier = 1 /reserve ratio
= 1/ 0.4
= 2.5
The reserve ratio is 40% which means the bank should be holding 40% of deposits as reserves.
= 100,000 * 40%
= $40,000
Yet they are holding $50,000. They are holding $10,000 more than required. Should they release that $10,000 then they will create;
= 10,000 * money Multiplier
= 10,000 * 2.5
= $25,000
Three identical units of merchandise were purchased during July, as follows: Date Product Basic H Units Cost July 3 Purchase 1 $35 10 Purchase 1 36 24 Purchase 1 37 Total 3 $108 Average cost per unit $36 Assume one unit sells on July 28 for $45. Determine the gross profit, cost of merchandise sold, and ending inventory on July 31 using the (a) first-in, first-out, (b) last-in, first-out, and (c) average cost flow methods.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Particulars Gross profit Cost of merchandise sold Ending inventory
a. FIFO $10 $35 $73
($45 - $35) ($108 - $35)
It takes the first cost per unit
b. LIFO $8 $37 $71
($45 - $37) ($108 - $37)
It takes the last cost per unit
c. Average cost $9 $36 $72
($45 - $36) ($45 - $36)
It takes the average cost per unit
Hemming uses a periodic inventory system. Assume that ending inventory is consists of 45 units from the March 14 purchase, 75 units from the July 30 purchase, and all 100 units from the October 26 purchase. Using the specific identification method, calculate the (a) the cost of goods sold and (b) the gross profit.
Question:
Use the following information for the Exercises below.
Hemming CO. reported the following current year purchases and sales for its only product.
Date Activities Units Acquired at Cost Units Sold at Retail
Jan. 1 Beginning inventory 200 units at $10 = $2,000
Jan. 10 Sales 150 units at $40
Mar. 14 Purchase 350 units at $15= 5,250
Mar. 15 Sales 300 units at $40
July. 30 Purchase 450 units at $20 = 9,000
Oct. 5 Sales 430 units at $40
Oct. 26 Purchase 100 units at 25 = 2,500
Totals 1,100 units $18,750
Required:
Hemming uses a periodic inventory system. Assume that ending inventory is consists of 45 nits from the March 14 purchase, 75 units from the July 30 purchase, and all 100 units from the October 26 purchase. Using the specific identification method calculate the (a) cost of goods sold and (b) the gross profit.
Answer:
a) Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available for sale minus ending inventory = $18,750 - $4,675 = $14,075
b) Gross profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold
= $35,200 - 14,075 = $21,125
Explanation:
a) Sales:
Jan. 10 Sales, 150 units at $40 = $6,000
Mar. 15 Sales, 300 units at $40 = 12,000
Oct. 5 Sales, 430 units at $40 = 17,200
Total sales = $35,200
b) Determination of Ending Inventory:
March 14 purchase 45 units x $15 = $675
July 30 purchase 75 units x $20 = $1,500
October 26 purchase 100 units x $25 = $2,500
Total cost of Ending Inventory $4,675
c) Specific Identification Method:
These inventory costing methods are used to ascertain the cost of goods sold and the ending inventory values. Using periodic inventory, the valuation is done at the end of the period. They are FIFO (First-In-First-Out) method, LIFO (Last-In-First-Out) method, weighted average method, and specific identification method. These methods can be applied under perpetual inventory system or periodic inventory system. The difference is in the timing of the valuation activity.
Consider a firm with an annual net income of $30 million, revenue of $70 million and cost of goods sold of $35 million. If the balance sheet amounts show $3.5 million of inventory and $800,000 of property, plant & equipment, what is the inventory turnover?
a. 12.50
b. 4.44
c. 17.50
d. 5.00
e. 10.00
Answer:
The answer is 5.2 million
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The cost of good sold is =$35 million
Inventory = $3.5 million
Thus we compute for the Inventory turnover which is given below:
Inventory turn over ratio (ITR)
=Cost of goods sold/Inventory
=35$million/$3.5 million
=$10 million
So,
The weekly supply = The number of week in a year /ITR
= 52 Weeks/$10 million
=5.2
Therefore the turnover of inventory is 5.2 million which is close to option (d) 5.00
Star Corp. has a rate of return on assets of 10% and a debt/equity ratio of 2 to 1 before entering into an operating lease. Not including any indirect effects on earnings, when Star Corp. records the operating lease, the immediate impact on these ratios is a(an):
Answer:
The return on assets and debt/equity ratio does not change
Explanation:
An operating lease does not affect assets and liabilities. From the formula:
Equity = Assets - Liabilities, since both assets and liabilities are not affected (they remain unchanged) therefore the equity is also the same.
The debt/ equity ratio = total liabilities/total equity. Since liabilities and equity remain unchanged, therefore The debt/ equity ratio is the same.
Also the return of assets (earnings/assets) remain the same
Which of the following statements is most correct? a. All else equal, if a bond’s yield to maturity increases, its price will fall. b. All else equal, if a bond is down graded by the rating agencies its yield to maturity will increase. c. If a firm has two bond issues that are identical except one is subordinate to the other, the subordinate issue will have a higher yield to maturity than the other issue. d. A B and C are correct. e. None of the above are correct
Answer: d. A B and C are correct.
Explanation:
A bond's price and it's Yield to Maturity (YTM) are inversely related such that when Yield to Maturity rises, the price of the bond falls. This is a because a higher YTM signifies that the bond is riskier so it will compensate by being cheaper.
If a bond is downgraded by Ratings agencies then it means that the bond is now riskier. As it is riskier investors will charge more interest for taking on the risk. The interest is the YTM and so it rises.
A Subordinate bond means that if the company were to go into bankruptcy for instance, the Subordinate bond would only be paid for after the bond that is not Subordinated. This means that there is a chance that Subordinate bond holders will not get anything from the liquidation of the company. Investors will therefore charge a higher YTM to cater for the risk that this happens.

Suppose that Boeing and Rolls-Royce Holdings are the sole producers of a particular turbo engine. The two firms currently charge the same price for their products. If neither firm reduces the price of its turbo engine, each firm earns $50 million in profit. If both firms reduce their prices, then each firm will earn $10 million in profit. If one firm reduces its price and the other does not, then the firm that reduces price will earn a profit of $70 million while the other firm will earn a profit of $5 million. If the firms can operate as a cartel, what will they do
Answer:
The two firms will manipulate the market in unison, to maintain the same price, which guarantees the optimum benefit for both firms, as opposed to if one or both of them reduces its price.
Explanation:
A cartel is a group of independent market participants that collude with each other in order to improve their profits and dominate the market. Cartels are usually in the same line of business, and they form a type of alliance as competitors. Cartel use price fixing, bid rigging, and reductions in output, to dominate the market and to maximize their profit. They are usually frowned upon in a free market system.
In this case, if the the two firms Boeing and Rolls-Royce operates as a cartel, they will bend the market rules by fixing their prices, instead of letting market drivers like demand and supply to determine their selling price, they might also reduce their output so that they both have the same level of output, or do any other form of manipulation in unison to maintain the same price. This is because both companies will benefit equally if they maintain the same price, as opposed to if one or both of them reduces price.
Heinz Ketchup holds 54% of the U.S. ketchup market, and nine of every 10 restaurants feature Heinz ketchup. However, Heinz has learned that many restaurant owners simply refill Heinz bottles with cheaper ketchup, thereby capitalizing on the Heinz name without the cost. One restaurant owner explains, "It’s just ketchup. The customers don’t notice." There are no specific health regulations that apply, and owners are not breaking the law by refilling the bottles. Do you think this practice is ethical?
Answer:
No, not at all. The practice is NOT ethical.
Explanation:
So, from the question above let us take each statement one after the other.
(1). "Heinz Ketchup holds 54% of the U.S. ketchup market, and nine of every 10 restaurants feature Heinz ketchup"
DEDUCTION FROM (1): this shows that Heinz Ketchup is a popular brand in the United States of America.
(2). " Heinz has learned that many restaurant owners simply refill Heinz bottles with cheaper ketchup, thereby capitalizing on the Heinz name without the cost. One restaurant owner explains, "It’s just ketchup. The customers don’t notice." There are no specific health regulations that apply, and owners are not breaking the law by refilling the bottles"
DEDUCTION FROM (2): What these other restaurants owners are doing is purely CHEAT that is "refill Heinz bottles with cheaper ketchup". CHEATING IS UNETHICAL!
Closet Links Clothing Company provided the following manufacturing costs for the month of June. Direct labor cost $ 132 comma 000 Direct materials cost 83 comma 000 Equipment depreciation (straightminusline) 20 comma 000 Factory insurance 18 comma 000 Factory manager's salary 10 comma 000 Janitor's salary 3 comma 000 Packaging costs 19 comma 800 Property taxes 16 comma 000 From the above information, calculate Closet Link's total variable costs.
Answer:
Closet Link's total variable costs is $234,800
Explanation:
Given:
Direct labor cost = $ 132,000
Direct materials cost = $83,000
Equipment depreciation (straight-line) = $20,000
Factory insurance = $18,000
Factory manager's salary = $10,000
Janitor's salary = $3,000
Packaging costs = $19,800
Property taxes = $16,000
Total variable costs = Direct materials cost + Direct labor cost + Packaging costs
= $83,000 + $132,000 + $19,800 = $234,800
Your company rents computers to local businesses and schools. You have 1,600 computers with a book value of $163,000. As a result of changing technology, your computers are more difficult to rent so you must drastically reduce your rental price, which causes a decrease in estimated future cash flows. The fair value of the computers is estimated to be $123,500 because of their outdated technology. Your company should report an asset impairment loss of:
Answer:
Your company should report an asset impairment loss of : $39,500
Explanation:
Impairment loss is recognized when the Carrying Amount of an Asset exceed its Recoverable Amount.
Carrying Amount
Carrying Amount is the Cost of Asset less its Accumulated Depreciation
Carrying Asset of Computers = $163,000
Recoverable Amount
Recoverable Amount is the Higher of :
Value in Use of Asset orFair Value less Cost to Sale the AssetIn this case the Recoverable amount is $123,500
Analysis for impairment loss
Carrying Amount : $163,000 > Recoverable Amount : $123,500,
Thus we have an impairment situation.
Impairment loss is $39,500 ($163,000 - $123,500)
Zoe, who is risk averse, purchased flight cancellation insurance which will cover the cost of her non-refundable $500 airline ticket if she is unable to travel due to illness. Zoe faces a 10 percent probability of becoming ill and then using the insurance.a) The fair insurance premium (i.e., selling price) for this insurance is $450.b) Zoe’s maximum willingness to pay for the insurance is $50.c) Zoe’s personal risk premium must exceed the actuarially fair price.d) None of the above.
Answer: Zoe’s maximum willingness to pay for the insurance is $50
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Zoe, who is risk averse, bought flight cancellation insurance which will cover the cost of her non-refundable $500 airline ticket if she is unable to travel due to illness wnd also that Zoe faces a 10 percent probability of becoming ill and then using the insurance.
The expected value of the insurance will be the cost of the airline ticket multiplied by the probability of her becoming ill. This will be:
= $500 × 10%
= $500 × 0.1
= $50
Based on the calculation, it can be concluded that Zoe’s maximum willingness to pay for the insurance is $50.
Which of the following is a major difference between Internet banks and traditional banks? The government does not regulate Internet banks. Traditional banks are prohibited from having ATMs. Internet banks have lower overhead costs. Traditional banks offer less personal care and attention to customers.
Answer:
Internet Banks have lower overhead costs.
Explanation:
Online Banks and traditional banks are basically the same with the main difference being that Internet Banks have lower overhead costs. These are costs on the income statement usually including accounting fees, advertising, insurance, interest, legal fees, labor burden, rent, repairs, supplies, taxes, telephone bills, travel expenditures, and utilities. Since Internet Banks do not need many physical locations they save on many of these overhead fees.
ABC Appliance offers a warranty requiring an annual fee. The warranty may be purchased at the time of sale or at any time within the first year after the appliance was purchased. The warranty fee after the date of purchase is twice the time-of-purchase fee. When asked why the fee was higher after the date of purchase, ABC's president said, "Buying a warranty is voluntary. We've noted that those who buy the warranty after the purchase date have a greater need for service." Charging the same rate or a lower rate after the date of purchase would expose ABC to what problem that also impacts private insurers?
Answer: adverse selection
Explanation:
Adverse selection is a situation whereby the sellers possesses information that the buyers do not have. It may also be the other way round whereby the buyers have information which the sellers don't have regarding the quality of a product.
There is information failure between both parties; typically, it's usually the sellers who has more information. Therefore, base on the scenario above, charging same rate or lower rate after the date of the purchase would expose ABC to adverse selection problems.

The debt ratio is used: Question 23 options: To measure the ratio of equity to expenses. To assess the risk associated with a company's use of liabilities. Only by banks when a business applies for a loan. To determine how much debt a firm should pay off. To determine how much debt a company should borrow.
Answer:
To assess the risk associated with a company's use of liabilities
Explanation:
The formula for debt =total liabilities/equity
It is evident from the formula above that debt ratio does not measure the ratio of equity to expenses, neither does it determine the amount of debt that could be borrowed.
In actual fact, it measures the risk inherent in making use of debt as a source of finance instead of equity.
The Ethics of Care recognizes that human relationships are often asymmetrical and tries to incorporate this fact into the view by claiming that moral responsibility is partially determined by how vulnerable a person is in a relationship.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Care means meeting the needs of ourselves and others. Ethics of care involves practising virtues as it maintain relationship and promote the well-being of those who give and receive care in social relations. It is hinged on the theory of what makes an action right or wrong.
Ideally, ethics of care is inspired to take care of the less privilege, the dependants and vulnerable. It place relevance on relationships, responsibility, concern over traditional rule. Ethics of care recognize that human relationships are not similar or do not perfectly match up hence incorporate this fact into the view and claiming that moral duty is partially determined by how vulnerable a person is in a relationship.
While ethics of care seems to place emphasis on social well being of vulnerable, yet it has being a foremost part of ethical issues among professionals such as medical practitioners.
Conroy Copper Mines has $940 million in total liabilities and $620 million in shareholder's equity. It discloses operating lease commitments over the next five years with a present value of $120 million. If the lease commitments are treated as debt, the debt-to-total-capital ratio is closest to:
Answer:
0.63
Explanation:
Total debt = 940 + 120 =1060
Total sharesholder's equity = $620 million
We can find the debt to total capital ratio by dividing debt by total capital
Debt-to-total-capital ratio = Debt / Total capital = 1060 / (1060+620)
Debt-to-total-capital ratio = 0.63

Kansas Company acquired a building valued at $151,000 for property tax purposes in exchange for 12,000 shares of its $3 par common stock. The stock is widely traded and selling for $18 per share. At what amount should the building be recorded by Kansas Company
Answer:
The building would be recorded by Kansas Company for an amount of $216,000
Explanation:
In order to calculate the amount should the building be recorded by Kansas Company we would have to calculate the value of the building with the following formula:
value of the building= shares exchanged*Market value per share
shares exchanged=12,000 shares
Market value per share=$18
Therefore, value of the building=12,000*$18
value of the building=$216,000
The building would be recorded by Kansas Company for an amount of $216,000
Hall Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data concerning the first processing department for the most recent month are listed below:
Beginning work in process inventory:
Units in beginning work in process inventory 1,000
Materials costs $7,100
Conversion costs $6,400
Percent complete with respect to materials 65%
Percent complete with respect to conversion 30%
Units started into production during the month 13,600
Units transferred to the next department during the month 12,300
Materials costs added during the month $137,224
Conversion costs added during the month $215,050
Ending work in process inventory:
Units in ending work in process inventory 2,300
Percent complete with respect to materials 60%
Percent complete with respect to conversion 25%
The total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department during the month is closest to:______
a. $356,256
b. $380,435
c. $341,325
d. $349,856
Answer:
c. $341,325
Explanation:
First determine the Equivalent Units of Production
Materials
Units completed and transferred (12,300 × 100%) = 12,300
Units in Ending Work In Process Inventory ( 2,300 ×60%) = 1,380
Equivalent Units of Production = 13,680
Conversion
Units completed and transferred (12,300 × 100%) = 12,300
Units in Ending Work In Process Inventory ( 2,300 ×25%) = 575
Equivalent Units of Production = 12,875
Next Determine the Total Cost Incurred during the period
Materials
Cost in Units of Opening Work In Process = $7,100
Incurred during the period = $137,224
Total Cost = $144,324
Conversion
Cost in Units of Opening Work In Process = $6,400
Incurred during the period = $215,050
Total Cost = $221,450
Then Determine the Total Cost per Equivalent unit of Production
Cost per Equivalent unit = Total Cost / Total Equivalent Units
Materials = $144,324 / 13,680
= $10.54
Conversion = $221,450 / 12,875
= $17.20
Total = $10.54 + $17.20 = $27.74
Finally calculate total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department
total cost transferred = Units transferred × Total cost per equivalent unit of production.
= 12,300 × $27.74
= $341,202
Conclusion :
The total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department during the month is closest to $341,325
Cotton On Ltd. currently has the following capital structure: Debt: $3,500,000 par value of outstanding bond that pays annually 10% coupon rate with an annual before-tax yield to maturity of 12%. The bond issue has face value of $1,000 and will mature in 20 years.
Answer and Explanation:
This question is incomplete. Kindly find the incomplete question here
Ordinary shares: $5,500,000 book value of outstanding ordinary shares. Nominal value of each share is $100. The firm plan just paid a $8.50 dividend per share. The firm is maintaining 4% annual growth rate in dividends, which is expected to continue indefinitely.
Preferred shares: 45,000 outstanding preferred shares with face value of $100, paying fixed dividend rate of 12%
The firm's marginal tax rate is 30%.
Required:
a) Calculate the current price of the corporate bond?
b)Calculate the current price of the ordinary share if the average return of the shares in the same industry is 9%?
c) Calculate the current price of the preferred share if the average return of the shares in the same industry is 10%
The computation is shown below:
a. For the current price of the corporate bond
Before that first we have to determine the after tax yield to maturity i.e
After tax YTM = Before tax YTM × (1 - tax rate)
= 12% × ( 1 - 30%)
= 12% × (1 - 0.3)
= 12% × (0.7)
= 8.4%
Now
Price of bond = Interest × PVIFA(YTM%,n) + Redemption value × PVIF(YTM%,n)
Interest = 1000 × 10% = $100
YTM% = 8.4%
n = 20
PVIFA(YTM%,n) = [1 - (1 ÷ (1 + r)^n ÷ r ]
PVIFA(8.4%,20) = [1 - (1 ÷ (1 + 8.4%)^20 ÷ 8.4%]
= [1 - (1 ÷ (1 + 0.084)^20 ÷ 0.084]
= [1-(1 ÷ (1.084)^20 ÷ 0.084]
= [1 - 0.1993 ÷ 0.084]
= 0.8007 ÷ 0.084
= 9.5327
PVIF(8.4%,20) = 1 ÷ (1 + 8.4%)^20
= 1 ÷ (1.084)^20
= 0.19926
So, the price of bond is
= $100 × 9.5327 + $1000 × 0.19926
= $953.27 + $199.26
= $1,152.52
b)Price of stock = Dividend of next year ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate )
where,
Growth rate = 4%
Required rate of return = 9%
The Dividend of next year = Dividend paid × (1 + growth rate)
= 8.50 × (1 + 4%)
= 8.50 × (1 + 0.04)
= 8.50 × (1.04)
= $8.84
Thus the price of the stock is
= $8.84 ÷ (9% - 4%)
= $8.84 ÷ 5%
= $176.80
c) Price of preference shares is
= Dividend ÷ Required rate of return
where,
Dividend = 100 × 12% = $12
And, the Required rate of return = 10%
So, the price of preference shares is
= 12 ÷ 10%
= $120
sadik inch's bonds currently sell for $1,300 and have a par value of $1,000. They pay a $105 annual coupon and have a 15-year maturity, but they can be called in 5 years at $1,100. What is their yield to call
Answer:
5.31%
Explanation:
For computing the yield to call we need to use the RATE formula i.e shown in the attachment below:
Given that,
Present value = $1,300
Future value or Face value = $1,100
PMT = 105
NPER = 5 years
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula, the yield to call is 5.31%
If the government began providing free textbooks to college students who would otherwise have bought their books from the private sector, the government's action would result in:_______

B) a direct expenditure offset.
C) an increase in real Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
D) a reduction of the government deficit.
Answer:
Option (B) is the correct answer to this question.
Explanation:
As the government spends more money, businesses within the private sector typically spend less.
Specific budget offsets refer to the private-sector expenditures through which compensation was generated as a result of expansionary budgetary policy decisions becoming implemented. The private sector activities in investment profits that counter government spending behavior by the state. Some income from federal spending in an environment competing with corporate companies must be offset by any government expenditure.
