Answer:
45.8 days
Explanation:
The computation of the days sales uncollected is shown below:
But before that first we need to find out the inventory turnover ratio which is
Inventory turnover ratio = Sales ÷ Accounts receivable
= $21,500 ÷ $2,700
= 7.96 times
Now Days sales uncollected is
= 365 ÷ Inventory turnover ratio
= 365 ÷ 7.96
= 45.8 days

If the interest rate in the United Kingdom is 8 percent, the interest rate in the United States is 10 percent, the spot exchange rate is $1.75/£1, and interest rate parity holds, what must be the one-year forward exchange rate?
Answer:
The answer is $1.78 / £1
Explanation:
Solution
Given that
Interest rate of United kingdom = 8%
Interest rate of United States =10%
Spot exchange rate =$1.75£1
The next step is to find the one year forward rate of exchange
Thus
Forward Rate = S₀ * [ ( 1 + Rus) / ( 1 + RE) ]
=$ 1.75 * ( ( 1 + 10%) / ( 1 + 8%) )
$1.78
Therefore, the forward exchange rate is $ 1.78 / £1
Six years ago, James Corporation sold a $100 million bond issue to expand its facilities. Each debenture has a $1,000 par value, an original maturity of 20 years (there are now 14 years left to maturity), and an annual coupon rate of 11.5% with semiannual payments. If you require a 14% return, what price would you pay today for a James bond?
Answer:
Price of Bonds=$848.286
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV) discounted at the yield rate
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of bond for James Corporation can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payments
PV = A × (1+r)^(-n)/r
A- semiannual interest payment, n-number of periods, r- semi annul yield
A-semi- annul interest payment:
=11.5%× 1,000× 1/2 = 75
r-semi-Annual yield = 14%/2 = 7%
n-Maturity period =1 4 × 2= 28
PV of interest payment:
=57.5 × (1- (1+0.07)^(-28)/0.07)
= 697.88
Step 2
PV of Redemption Value
= 1,000 × (1.07)^(-28) = 150.40
Step 3
Price of bond
=697.88 + 150.40
=$848.286

On December 31, Strike Company has decided to sell one of its batting cages. The initial cost of the equipment was $203,433.00 with an accumulated depreciation of $183,089.70. Depreciation has been taken up to the end of the year. The company found a company that is willing to buy the equipment for $18,308.97. What is the amount of the gain or loss on this transaction
Answer:
loss= $2,035.33
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchasing price= $203,433.00
Accumulated depreciation= $183,089.70.
The company found a company that is willing to buy the equipment for $18,308.97.
The gain or loss from selling an asset depends on the book value. If the selling price is higher than the book value, the company gain from the sale.
Book value= purchasing price - accumulated depreciation
Book value= 203,433 - 183,089.7= 20,343.3
Gain/loss= 18,307.97 - 20,343.3= $2,035.33 loss
XYZ Company makes 400 widgets. The variable costs are $35.60 per unit and fixed costs are $30.00 per unit; however, $21.40 in fixed costs per unit is unavoidable. What is the effect on net income if the company instead buys the widgets from an outside supplier for $44.00 per unit?
Answer:
increase in income of $80
Explanation:
Prepare an Analysis of Costs and Savings if the Company buys from Outside Supplier.
Note : The fixed costs per unit at are unavoidable are irrelevant and disregarded in this decision.
Analysis of Costs and Savings
Purchase Price (400 widgets × $44.00) = ($17,600)
Savings :
Variable Costs ($35.60 × 400 widgets) = $14,240
Fixed Cost ( $8.60 × 400 widgets) = $3,440
Net Income effect = $80
Conclusion :
The effect on net income if the company instead buys the widgets is an increase in income of $80

Answer:
D. 76.6 %
Explanation:
Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100
First Calculate the Contribution
Contribution = Sales - Variable Costs
= (60,000 units × $ 12.40) - ($110,000+$30,000+$34,000)
= $744,000 - $174,000
= $570,000
Then Calculate Contribution Margin Ratio
Contribution Margin Ratio = $570,000 / $744,000 × 100
= 76.61290
= 76.6 % ( 1 decimal)
Lower of Cost or Market Black Corporation uses the LIFO cost flow assumption. Each unit of its inventory has a net realizable value of $300, a normal profit margin of $35, and a current replacement cost of $250. Determine the amount per unit that should be used as the market value to apply the lower of cost or market rule to determine Black’s ending inventory.
Answer:
$265
Explanation:
The computation of Net realizable value-normal profit margin by using the lower of cost or market rule is shown below:-
Amount per unit = Net realizable value or Ceiling - Normal profit margin
= $300 - $35
= $265
Therefore for computing the amount per unit we simply applied the above formula i.e by deducting the normal profit margin from the net realizable value so that the amount per unit could come
Expenses for a Pizza restaurant include raw material for pizza at $4.00 per slice, $116.00 as monthly rental and $45.00 monthly as insurance. Lost sale expense is considered to be $4.00 per unhappy customer. Leftover Pizza can be sold for $3. The restaurant is open 25 days in a month. Today the restaurant prepared 200.00 pizza slices and sells them for $10.00/slice. There was a party at a nearby office so the demand for pizza went up to 212.00 slices. How much profit did the restaurant earn today
Answer:
The restaurant earned a profit of $1145.56 which is approximately $1146
Explanation:
the formula is given as:
Q x (sale price – material cost) – ( rental + insurance)/day - loss
Q = 200
Sale price = $10
Material cost = $4
rental = $116
insurance = $45
lost sale expense = $4
day = 25
increased demand = 212
= 200(10 - 4) - (116 + 45)/25 - (212 - 200)4
= 200(6) - 6.44 - 48
= 1200 - 6.44 - 48
= $1145.56
This is approximately $1146
A firm in a purely competitive industry has a typical cost structure. The normal rate of profit in the economy is 5 percent. This firm is earning $5.50 on every $50 invested by its founders.
a. What is its percentage rate of return? 11 percent.
b. Is the firm earning an economic profit? Yes If so, how large? 6 percent.
c. Will this industry see entry or exit? Entry
d. What will be the rate of return earned by firms in this industry once the industry reaches long-run equilibrium?
Answer: The answers are given below
Explanation:
a. What is its percentage rate of return?
From the question, we are told that the firm is earning $5.50 on every $50 invested by its founders. The percentage of return will now be:
= $5.50/$50 × 100%
= 0.11 × 100%
= 11%
b. Is the firm earning an economic profit? If so, how large?
The economic profit will be the difference that exists between the percentage of return which is 11% and the normal rate of profit which is 5%. This will be:
= 11% - 5%
= 6%
The firm is earning economic profit of 6%.
c. Will this industry see entry or exit?
There will be entry into the industry. This is because the percentage of return which is 11% is greater than the normal rate of profit which is 5%.
d. What will be the rate of return earned by firms in this industry once the industry reaches long-run equilibrium?
The rate of return earned by firms in this industry once the industry reaches long-run equilibrium will be 5% which is the normal rate of profit in the economy.
Your uncle lends you $2,000 less $100 (interest at 5 percent), and you receive $1,900. Use the APR formula to find the true annual percentage rate. Assume you repay the entire loan in one year
Answer:
APR =5.263%
Explanation:
Computation of the true annual percentage rate
Using the APR formula to find the true annual percentage rate
APR=(2 × n × I) / [P × (N + 1)]
Hence;
APR= (2 × 1 × $100) / [$1,900 × (1 + 1)]
APR=$200/($1,900×2)
APR=$200/$3,800
APR= 0.05263 ×100
APR =5.263%
Therefore the true annual percentage rate using the APR formula will be 5.263%

According to the Phillips curve, policymakers could reduce both the inflation rate and the unemployment rate by Group of answer choices increasing the money supply. raising taxes. increasing government expenditures None of the other answers is correct
Answer:
None of the other answers is correct.
Explanation:
Williams A. Phillips was a notable economist born in New Zealand. Phillips wrote a famous article titled "The Relation between Unemployment and the Rate of Change of Money Wage Rates in the United Kingdom, 1861-1957" published in 1958 by Economica. In the article, he used data for the United Kingdom (U.K) to illustrate on a graph, a negative or inverse relationship between the rate of change of employee wages in the U.K and the unemployment rate in the United Kingdom (U.K).
Consequently, using the Phillips curve it is practically impossible for policymakers to reduce both the inflation rate and the unemployment rate because as the inflation rate decreases; the unemployment rate increases and vice-versa.
However, according to the Phillips curve, policymakers can reduce inflation and increase unemployment if aggregate demand is contracted.

Kanye Company is evaluating the purchase of a rebuilt spot-welding machine to be used in the manufacture of a new product. The machine will cost $176,000, has an estimated useful life of 7 years, a salvage value of zero, and will increase net annual cash flows by $35,000.
What is its approximate internal rate of return?
Answer:
i think the answer218
Explanation:
if you add 176.000+35.000=211+7=218 you get the right answer
The approximate internal rate of return is 176.000+35.000=211+7=218. From calculating the cost and salvage value we get the internal rate of return.
What is internal rate of return?In financial analysis, the internal rate of return (IRR) is a statistic used to calculate the profitability of possible investments. IRR is a discount rate that, in a discounted cash flow analysis, reduces all cash flows' net present values (NPV) to zero. The same formula is used for NPV calculations and IRR calculations.
A useful tool for comparing investments is the internal rate of return (IRR), which is the interest rate at which the sum of all cash flows equals zero. If we substitute 13.92% for the 8% in the aforementioned case, NPV will be zero, and that represents your IRR. IRR is therefore defined as the discount rate at which a project's NPV equals zero.
IRR can be used to rank a variety of potential investments or projects on a pretty even basis because it is consistent for investments of all types. Generally speaking, the investment with the highest IRR would be regarded as the best when comparing options with other similar attributes.

Cretically analyse the difference and the point of convergence between floor inspection and functional inspection
Answer and Explanation:
The connection between Floor and Function Inspection is that these two techniques are used to eliminate and identify defective raw materials prior to the development of the same. Quality is the key priority for both processes, where standards are reviewed and evaluated to ensure that the operation continues correctly.
The distinction between the two is that in Floor Inspection the system inspects the material in process doe the machine or at the time of production to ensure that each and every machine or floor is working effectively. It is to make share the material processing costs don't go out or it could easily be found by hand and defect.
The Functional Inspection, on the other hand, will have the key feature tested which the product is supposed to perform. For instance, if the same has the right speed and output, the electric motor could be tested up. It doesn't inform us about the variability throughout all parts but gives us an overall view of the satisfaction that comes from investigating the same commodity.
Stuart tells his student government representative at his college to propose rent controls on local rental housing as a way to help students afford rental housing. Maria disagrees with Stuart, saying rent controls will make students worse off. Who is correct and why
Answer:
Both are correct in part. Rent controls will be better for the students who are able to find housing at the reduced price but worse for students as a whole because there will be a shortage of rental housing, a lower future supply, and the quality will deteriorate.
Explanation:
Rent control involves use of price regimes such as price floor and price ceiling to control the cost of rent by the government.
Price ceiling is the maximum price allowed for rent while price floor is the minimum amount a property is allowed to be rented out.
The aim of rent control is to make housing cost cheap for everyone.
So both Stuart and Maria are correct. Rent control will make housing affordable for the students.
However when unfavourable rent ceiling is imposed by government, suppliers always aim to make profit and will refuse to give property out for rent. Resulting in shortage of rental housing, a lower future supply, and the quality will deteriorate.

10% * 22000 = 2,200.
In total, the tax cost on the withdrawal of $22,000 is = $5,280 + $2,200 = $7,480

Yosko Company expects to sell 2 comma 000 units of finished product in January and 2 comma 150 units in February. The company has 260 units on hand on January 1 and desires to have an ending inventory equal to 40% of the next month's sales. March sales are expected to be 2 comma 270 units. Prepare Yosko's production budget for January and February.
Answer:
Production budget
January 2,600 units
February 2,198 units
Explanation:
The sales budget is adjusted for the projected opening and closing inventories unit to arrive at the production budget:
The production budget can be determined using the formula below
Production budget = Sales budget + closing inventory- opening inventory
January production budget
Sales budget = 2,000 units
Closing inventory = 40% × February sales = 40% × 2,150
Opening inventory = 260 units
Production budget for January = 2000 + (40% × 2,150) - 260= 2,600 units
February production budget
Sales budget = 2,150
Opening inventory = January closing inventory = 860 units
Closing inventory = 40% × March sales= 40% × 2,270
Production budget fro February = 2,150 + (40% × 2,270) - 860= 2,198 units
Production budget
January 2,600 units
February 2,198 units
