Answer:
35.35 days
Explanation:
For the computation of company’s days’ sales in receivable first we do the following calculations
As we know that
Profit margin = Net income ÷ Sales
0.086 = 187,000 ÷ Sales
Sales = 2,174,418.605
So,
Credit sales = Sales × Sales percentage
= 2,174,418.605 × 0.6
= 1,304,651.163
Receivables turnover ratio = Credit sales ÷ Receivables
= 1,304,651.163 ÷ 126,370
= 10.3241
Now
Days sales in receivables = 365 ÷ Receivables turnover
= 365 ÷ 10.3241
= 35.35 days

Explanation:
When an amount is incurred but is deferred to another period for payment, a liability is recognized.
A liability is a present legal obligation arising from a past event, the settlement of which will result in outflow of economic benefits (Cash) from the entity.
A customer is short 100 shares of PDQ stock at $62 per share. The stock goes up to $67 and the customer covers the position. If, 30 days later, the customer decides to re-establish this short position when the market for PDQ is $65, what will the sale proceeds be
Answer:
$60 per share
Explanation:
Given the transaction above, the customer intend to take a loss and then reestablish the position.
Thus, going by "wash sale" rule, the loss deduction is disallowed in a situation where by the position is reestablished within 30 days of the date the loss was generated.
Hence, In this case the customer initially sold short the stock at $62. The stock was later repurchased at $67, for a $5 loss per share which equate to $500 loss on 100 shares.
Again, the customer sold short another 100 shares exactly 30 days later at $65 (to avoid the "wash sale" rule, the position cannot be reestablished until the 31st day). This made the $500 loss to be disallowed.
At this point, the $5 per share loss will be deducted from the sale proceeds of $65, for a new sale proceeds of $60.
Hence, this ensures the taking of the loss until this short position is covered.
The pre-tax cost of debt is 11%, preferred stock costs 14%, and equity costs 15%. What is the weighted average cost of capital assuming a tax rate of 40% and a target capital structure of 40% debt, 20% preferred stock, and 40% equity
Answer:
WACC is 11.4%
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is the average cost of all the various sources of long-term finance used by a business weighted according to the proportion which each source of finance bears to the the entire pool of fund.
To calculate the weighted average cost of capital, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Calculate cost of individual source of finance(this is already given)
Cost of Equity= 15%
After-tax cost of debt:
= (1- T) × before-tax cost of debt
= 11%× (1-0.4)= 6.6%
Cost of preferred stock costs= 14%
Step 2 : calculate the proportion or weight of the individual source of finance . (This already given)
Equity = 40%
Debt= 40%
Preferred stock : 20%
Step 3; Work out weighted average cost of capital (WACC)
WACC = ( 15%× 40%) + ( 6.6%× 40%) + (14%× 20%)= 11.4%
WACC is 11.4%
Crane Company produces two models: Model 24 has sales of 300 units with a contribution margin of $40 each; Model 26 has sales of 150 units with a contribution margin of $50 each. If sales of Model 26 increase by 50 units, how much will profit change
Answer:
Effect on income= 50*50= $2,500 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Model 26 has sales of 150 units with a contribution margin of $50 each.
To calculate the effect on income, we need to use the following formula:
Effect on income= number of units*unitary contribution margin
Effect on income= 50*50= $2,500 increase
Cobe Company has already manufactured 25,000 units of Product A at a cost of $15 per unit. The 25,000 units can be sold at this stage for $480,000. Alternatively, the units can be further processed at a $240,000 total additional cost and be converted into 5,400 units of Product B and 11,100 units of Product C. Per unit selling price for Product B is $104 and for Product C is $53

Suppose you have the following disposable income and consumption data for an economy, as shown in the table below.
a. Using this data, compute the value for savings at each level of disposable income.
Instructions: Include a negative sign (-) when necessary.
Disposable Income Consumption Savings
$20,000 $22,000 $?
21,000 22,500 ?
22,000 23,000 ?
23,000 23,500 ?
24,000 24,000 ?
25,000 24,500 ?
26,000 25,000 ?
27,000 25,500 ?
28,000 26,000 ?
Answer:
Consumption is a key component in the calculation of GDP and refers to how much money out of disposable income is spent by households on goods (both durable and non-durable) and services.
Disposable income is how much money households have after taxes. Their consumption and spending come from here.
Whatever is not spent is saved. Savings are therefore calculated as;
Savings = Disposable income - Consumption
Savings for the above are therefore,
$20,000 - $22,000 = -$2,000
21,000 - 22,500 = -$1,500
22,000 - 23,000 = -$1,000
23,000 - 23,500 = -$500
24,000 - 24,000 = $0
25,000 - 24,500 = $500
26,000 - 25,000 = $1,000
27,000 - 25,500 = $1,500
28,000 - 26,000 = $2,000
For what purpose should the passive voice be used? a. To strengthen most business writing b. To de-emphasize bad news c. To emphasize the doer of the action d. To lengthen the message
Answer:
The correct answer is the option A: To strengthen most business writing.
Explanation:
To begin with, the passive voice is the name given to a grammatical voice construction in where the person who is doing the action is given less importance than the action itself who pass to be the main subject of the construction. Therefore that in business writing it turns out to be very helpful to use passive voice due to the fact that the managers or writers try to give more importance in the strategies, the plans, the numbers, etc and no in the person or the gruop itself but in the results for example.
Suppose a consumer has the following utility function defined over the 2 goods X and Y: a. If this consumer originally consumed 10 units of X and 24 units of Y, and if the consumption of X were increased to 12 units, how much Y would be would the consumer be willing to give up and maintain the initial level of satisfaction
Answer:
Y = 22 units (Approx)
Explanation:
Note:
The utility function is not given, the utility function is as follows.
U(X ,Y) = 2X + [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
So,
U(X ,Y) = 2X + [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
When X = 10 and Y = 24 units
U(10 ,24) = 2(10) + [tex]16(24)^{1/2}[/tex]
U(10 ,24) = 98.4
U(10 ,24) = 99 Units (Approx)
So,
U(X ,Y) = 2X + [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
When X = 12 Find Y
99 units = 2(12) + [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
75 = [tex]16Y^{1/2}[/tex]
Y = 21.97
Y = 22 units (Approx)
A portfolio consists of $13,600 in Stock M and $19,400 invested in Stock N. The expected return on these stocks is 8.10 percent and 11.70 percent, respectively. What is the expected return on the portfolio
Answer:
Portfolio return is 10.22%
Explanation:
The expected return of a portfolio is the function of the weighted average of the individual stock returns that form up the portfolio. The formula to calculate the expected return of the portfolio is as follows,
Portfolio Return = wA * rA + wB * rB + ... + wN * rN
Where,
w is the weightage of each asset/stock in the portfolior is the return of each stockThe weightage of each stock can be calculated by dividing the investment in the stock by the total investment in the portfolio.
Total investment - portfolio = 13600 + 19400 = $33000
Portfolio Return = 13600/33000 * 0.0810 + 19400/33000 * 0.1170
Portfolio Return = 0.10216 or 10.216% rounded off to 10.22%
Debbie and Alan open a web-based bookstore together. They have been friends for so long that they start their business on a handshake after discussing how they will share both work and profits or losses from the business. Have Debbie and Alan formed a real partnership given that they have signed no written partnership agreement?
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Debbie and Alan have formed a real partnership even though they have signed no written partnership agreement because partnership does not require legal Documentation.
Many partnerships are formed naturally because the people who are involved in the business share similar goals, so their partnerships don't need formation documents to exist.
An economy is operating with output $400 billion above its natural level, and fiscal policymakers want to close this expansionary gap. The central bank agrees to adjust the money supply to hold the interest rate constant, so there is no crowding out. The marginal propensity to consume is 4/5, and the price level is completely fixed in the short run. To close the expansionary gap, the government would need to spending by $_________ billion.
Answer: reduced by $80 billion
Explanation:
An expansionary gap is when the actual output is more than the potential output. From the question, we are told that an economy is operating with output $400 billion above its natural level, and fiscal policymakers want to close this expansionary gap and that the central bank agrees to adjust the money supply to hold the interest rate constant, so there is no crowding out.
We are also given the marginal propensity to consume is 4/5, and told that the price level is completely fixed in the short run.
To close the expansionary gap, the government would need to reduce its spending. To solve this, we have to calculate the multiplier. This will be:
Multiplier = 1/(1 - MPC)
= 1/(1 - 4/5)
= 1/1-0.8
= 1/0.2
= 5
Therefore, the government expenditure or spending will be reduced by:
= $400 billion/5
=$80 billion

1) What contribution margin per pound of raw material is earned by Alpha and Beta?
Alpha Beta
contribution margin $72 $64
contribution margin per pound $9 $21.33
2) Assume that Cane's customers would buy a maximum of 95,000 units of Alpha and 75,000 units of Beta. Also, assume that the company's raw material available for production is limited to 245,000 pounds. How many units of each product should Cane produce to maximize its profits?
Alpha Beta
contribution margin $72 $64
contribution margin per pound $9 $21.33
production (in units) 2,500 75,000
profits $30,000 $450,000
total profits $480,000
3) Assume that Cane's customers would buy a maximum of 95,000 units of Alpha and 75,000 units of Beta. Also, assume that the company's raw material available for production is limited to 245,000 pounds. What is the maximum contribution margin Cane Company can earn given the limited quantity of raw materials?
Alpha Beta

total contribution margin $4,980,000
4) Assume that Cane's customers would buy a maximum of 95,000 units of Alpha and 75,000 units of Beta. Also, assume that the company's raw material available for production is limited to 245,000 pounds. Up to how much should it be willing to pay per pound for additional raw materials?
If it wants to increase the production of Alpha, it could pay as much as ($195 - $183) / 8 = $1.50 extra per pound if it wants to maximize profits. Maximum price = $6.50 per pound. At this point, marginal revenue = price.
A manager creates a policy document that lists the policy name, identifying information, and the operational policy. When she gets to the section marked "roles and responsibilities," she is uncertain if she should include the names of the individuals assigned to the roles and responsibilities, but decides ultimately that she will because these individuals were newly appointed and have played an active role in reviewing and providing feedback on the policy. Which of the following statements is an accurate assessment of this manager’s choice to include the names of the individuals?a. the manager made the right choice to include the names of the individuals in the policy because it is highly unlikely that newly appointed employees will leave the company anytime soon. b. the manager should have postponed her decision to include the names until after she consulted the hr department. c. the manager should not have included the names because even though they were newly appointed, individuals join and leave and the company. d. the manager should have waited to include the individuals' names until she received verification that their contracts would be renewed.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
the manager should not have included the names because even though they were newly appointed, individuals join and leave and the company.
The manager made a mistake including the names of the individuals assigned to the roles and responsibilities, because these individuals were newly appointed and although they have played an active role in reviewing and providing feedback on the policy people join companies at anytime and also have the choice of leaving whenever they want.

A project analysis using the net present value method indicates that the present value of cash inflows is $120,000, and the total amount of investment required at the start of the project is $100,000. Which of the following statements best describes the results of the project analysis?
a. The project should be rejected because the actual rate of return expected from the project is less than the minimum desired rate of return.
b. The project should be accepted because the actual rate of return expected from the project is more than the minimum desired rate of return.
c. The project should be rejected because the actual rate of return expected from the project is more than the minimum desired rate of return.
d. The project should be accepted because the actual rate of return expected from the project is less than the minimum desired rate of return.
Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
Cost of investment was $100,000
Present value of all the cash inflows = $120,000
Profit = $20,000 ($120,000 - $100,000)
Since the present value of all the cash inflows is greater than the initial cost of investment, the capital project should be accepted because the firm will be better off and shareholders' wealth will be increased.
The expected rate of return for the project is $20,000/$100,000
0.2 or 20%
At a sales volume of 38,000 units, Choice Corporation's sales commissions (a cost that is variable with respect to sales volume) total $752,400. To the nearest whole cent, what should be the average sales commission per unit at a sales volume of 39,000 units
Answer:
The average sales commission per unit at a sales volume of 39,000 units would be $19.8
Explanation:
In order to calculate the average sales commission per unit we would have to calculate the following formula:
average sales commission per unit= Total sales commission/sales volume
According to given data:
Total sales commission=$752,400
sales volume=38,000 units
Therefore, average sales commission per unit=$752,400/38,000 units
average sales commission per unit=$19.8
The average sales commission per unit at a sales volume of 39,000 units would be $19.8
Barans Realty Co. pays weekly salaries of $18,000 on Monday for a six-day workweek ending the preceding Saturday. Journalize the necessary adjusting entry at the end of the accounting period, assuming that the period ends on Friday. Round your answers to nearest whole dollar.
Answer:
Barans Realty Co. Journal entry
Dr Salary expenses 15,000
Cr Salary payable 15,000
Explanation:
Since Barans Realty Co. pays weekly salaries of $18,000 on Monday for a six-day workweek ending the preceding Saturday in which we have to as well assume that it ended on friday that means (18,000/6 ×5) will give us 15,000, we have to record it by Debiting salary expenses with 15,000 and Crediting salary payable with the same amount
The key thing to look at is that the period ends on FRIDAY.
If we count from Monday to Friday, that is 5 days apart.
We need to divide to find the daily salary.
18,000 / 6 = $3,000 per day
Multiply to find the total salary expense from Monday to Friday.
3,000 * 5 = $15,000
Now, we can assemble the journal entry.
We will have a salaries expense to debit for $15,000
We will also have a salaries payable to credit for $15,000
18,000 - 15,000 = $3,000 expense for the next accounting period.
Best of Luck!

a) A 10-column worksheet is a tool used by accountants to close the temporary accounts, after necessary adjustments, and then extract a balance sheet. It comprises two columns (debit and credit) for each of the following: Unadjusted Trial Balance, Adjusting Entries, Adjusted Trial Balance, Income Statement, and Balance Sheet.
b) A closing entry is a journal entry that is made at the end of an accounting period to transfer balances from a temporary account to a permanent account. The four basic steps in the closing process are: Closing the revenue accounts—transferring the credit balances in the revenue accounts to a clearing account called Income Summary. Closing the expense accounts—transferring the debit balances in the expense accounts to a clearing account called Income Summary. Extracting a balance between the revenue accounts and the expense accounts, called the net income or loss. Closing the net income or loss to the Retained Earnings.
Consider two nations, Spendia and Savia. The MPC for Spendia is 0.8, and the MPC for Savia is 0.5. Assume that both nations experience an increase in gross investment (I) of $100 million at their existing GDP levels.
a. Considering the multiplier effect, what will be the overall increase in income (Y) for each nation?
b. Now assume that a third nation experiences an increase of $250 million in its income and its gross investment (I) increases by the same amount as Spendia and Savia, which is $100 million.
The expenditures multiplier of this third nation is ________ suggesting an MPC of _________.
Answer:
a. Overall increase in income (Y) for Spendia is $500 million, while overall increase in income (Y) for Savia is $200 million
b. The expenditures multiplier of this third nation is 2.50 suggesting an MPC of 0.6.
Explanation:
a. Considering the multiplier effect, what will be the overall increase in income (Y) for each nation?
For Spendia
MPC = Marginal propensity to consume = 0.8
MPS = Marginal propensity to save = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2
Multiplier = 1 / MPS = 1 / 0.2 = 5
Overall increase in income (Y) for Spendia = Increase in gross investment * Multiplier = $100 million * 5 = $500 million
For Savia
MPC = 0.5
MPS = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5
Multiplier = 1 / MPS = 1 / 0.5 = 2
Overall increase in income (Y) for Savia = Increase in gross investment * Multiplier = $100 million * 2 = $200 million
b. Now assume that a third nation experiences an increase of $250 million in its income and its gross investment (I) increases by the same amount as Spendia and Savia, which is $100 million.
Note that generally in macroeconomics, savings (S) is equal to gross investment (I). Consequently, it is assumed that an increase in gross investment (I) eqauls to an increase in savings (S).
Based on this, we have:
Increase in income (Y) = $250 million
Increase in gross investment (I) = Increase in savings (S) = $100 million
MPS = Increase in savings / Increase in income = $100 / $250 = 0.40
Multiplies = 1 / MPS = 1 / 0.4 = 2.5
MPC = 1 - MPS = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6
Therefore, the expenditures multiplier of this third nation is 2.50 suggesting an MPC of 0.6.

Explanation:
A well-known industrial firm has issued $1,000 bonds that carry a 4% coupon interest rate paid semiannually. The bonds mature 20 years from now, at which time the industrial firm will redeem them from $1,000 plus the terminal semiannual interest payment. From the financial pages of your newspaper you learn that the bonds may be purchased for $715 each ($710 for the bond plus a $5 sales commission). What nominal annual rate of return would you receive if you purchased the bond now and held it to maturity 20 years from now
Answer:
5.59%
Explanation:
$1,000 bonds carrying a 4% coupon rate, semiannual coupon $20, matures in 20 years
if you purchase the bonds at $715, the nominal annual rate of return = coupon payments / bond price = ($20 + $20) / $715 = $40 / $715 = 5.59%
The nominal annual rate of return is calculated by dividing the revenue generated by an investment by the cost of the investment.

A company reported $18,000.00 of net income for 20X6, $24,000.00 for 20X7, and $26,000.00 for 20X8. The percentage change in net income from 20X6 to 20X7 was A. 8.33 percent. B. 30.00 percent.
Answer:
The percentage change in net income = 33.33%
Explanation:
Let us establish a formula for calculating the percentage change in net income.
Generally when calculating percentage change, the formula used is:
[tex]\frac{final - initial}{initial} * 100[/tex]
where:
final = income for 20X7 = $24,000
Initial = income for 20X6 = $18,000
∴ % change = [tex]\frac{24,000-18000}{18000} *100[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{6000}{18000} *100\\= 0.3333 * 100[/tex]
= 33.33%
Imagine Fry knew in advance that he would be frozen for 1000 years and wanted to have $9,999,999,999 when he thaws out. How much would Fry need to deposit in his account paying 2% APR compounded quarterly before falling into the cryogenic freezer
Answer:
$21.66
Explanation:
We are to find the present value of $9,999,999,999.
The formula to be used is :
P = FV (1 + r/m) ^-mn
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
M = number of compounding
= $9,999,999,999 ( 1 + 0.02 / 4 ) ^-4000 = $21.66

A corporate bond has 22 years to maturity, a face value of $1,000, a coupon rate of 4.6% and pays interest semiannually. The annual market interest rate for similar bonds is 3.3%.
Required:
a. What is the price of the bond Intro A bond has an annual coupon rate of 3.4%, a face value of $1,000, a price of $883.61, and matures in 10 years.
b. What is the bond's YTM?
c. What is the current yield?
Answer:
a. The answer is: $1,008.40
b. The bond's YTM is 3.343%
c. The current yield is 3.826%
Explanation:
a. Bond price formula: ∑(C* / (1+YTM)[tex]n[/tex] )
The price of the bond Intro A with i=1,2...10 is:
∑($1,000 x 3.4% / (1 + 3.3%)[tex]i[/tex] ) = $1,008.40
b. The price of the corporate bond which has 22 years to maturity is: $1,202.20
Given that the bond is trading at par value, the bond's YTM is:
[Annual Interest Payment + ((Face Value – Current Price) / (Years to Maturity))] / ( ( Face Value + Current Price ) / 2 )
= [$1,000 x 4.6% + (($1,000 - $1,202.20) / 22)] / (($1,000 + $1,202.20) /2)
= 3.343%
c. The bond's current yield is:
Annual Interest Payment / Current Price = $46 / $1,202.2 = 3.826%
An access control strategy that gives a user or group of users only those powers which are absolutely essential to do the job required is called the: a. principle of least privilege. b. principle of user control. c. principle of essential power. d. group level rule.
Answer:
A. principle of least privilege
Explanation:
According to The Principle of Least Privilege, a subject should be given only those privileges that are essential for it to complete its task. The principle works by giving just enough access to perform the required job. It dictates that users be assigned the least set of privileges they need to do their jobs, according to their roles. The principle aids in the creation of protective systems.
The manufacturing cost of Calico Industries for three months of the year are provided below: Total Cost Production (units) April $121,800 282,100 May 82,500 163,400 June 99,900 235,900 Using the high-low method, the variable cost per unit and the total fixed costs are
Total Cost
Production (units)
April $121,800 282,100
May 82,500 163,400
June 99,900 235,900
Using the high-low method, the variable cost per unit and the total fixed costs are
$0.33 per unit and $28,707
$0.59 per unit and $14,354
$3.30 per unit and $2,871
$5.94 per unit and $2,871
Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
April $121,800 282,100
May 82,500 163,400
June 99,900 235,900
To calculate the variable and fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (121,800 - 82,500) / (282,100 - 163,400)
Variable cost per unit= $0.33
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 121,800 - (0.33*282,100)
Fixed costs= $28,707
Consider the simple leisure model in which the individual chooses between leisure (L) and money income (M). The marginal utility of leisure (MUL) is 15 and the marginal utility of money (MUM) is 3. At the optimum, the wage rate:_______
a. $45
b. $0.20
c. $5
d. $15
Answer:
Wage rate is $5
Explanation:
The marginal utility of money=marginal utility of leisure/wage rate
When the formula is rearranged,wage rate is given thus:
wage rate=marginal utility of leisure/marginal utility of money
wage rate=15/3
wage rate =$5
In other words, the correct option is C,wage rate is $5
Option D would have been correct if the requirement was to calculate marinal utility of leisure
A dairy produces and sells organic milk. Last year it sold 500,000 gallons of milk at a price of $7 per gallon. For last year, the firm's a. explicit costs were $3.5 million. b. economic profit was $3.5 million. c. total revenue was $3.5 million. d. accounting profit was $3.5 million.
Answer:
. total revenue was $3.5 million.
Explanation:
Total revenue = price x units sold = 500,000 x $7 = $3,500,000
Total explicit cost is the actual cost incurred in production. Total explicit cost includes fixed cost and variable cost.
Accounting profit is total revenue less total explicit cost.
Economic profit is accounting profit less implicit cost or opportunity cost.
Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.
