A company reports accounting data in its financial statements. This data is used for financial analyses that provide insights into a company’s strengths, weaknesses, performance in specific areas, and trends in performance. These analyses are often used to compare a company’s performance to that of its competitors, or to its past or expected future performance. Such insight helps managers and analysts improve their decision making. Most decision makers and analysts use five groups of ratios to examine the different aspects of a company’s performance. Indicate whether each of the following statements regarding financial ratios are true or false?
a. The ratios provide an accurate and thorough representation of the Chinese company’s performance.b. The analysis likely includes incorrect and misleading conclusions.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. False

b. True

Explanation:

Ratio analysis is a very useful method of analyzing a company however it is not necessarily very in-depth. If a company seems to be performing below the industrial average, it would be prudent to check the reasons why the company is doing so.

The advantage of ratio analysis in this instance is that it would help point you in the right direction to know what accounts to analyze more intensely to find out why the Chinese company is not performing up to standard.

Ratio analysis are good but they do not always provide an accurate and thorough representation of a company’s performance therefore relying solely on ratios will lead to an analysis that likely includes incorrect and misleading conclusions.

Luke offered to sell his farm to Kent at $75,000, an offer which Kent declined. A week later, Luke offered to sell the farm for $65,000, stating that it was the final offer, it was valid for one month, and that he would not alter it. Two days later, Kent replied by saying that he was willing to pay $60,000 for the farm. A week after Luke received Kent's offer, Luke declined it. Ten days after that, Kent agreed to buy the farm for $65,000, but Luke refused to sell the farm. Kent decided to sue Luke for a breach of contract. The judge ruled in favor of Luke. Which one of the following is the reason for the ruling in Luke's favor?

a. Luke's original offer of $75,000 is still valid, even though rejected.
b. Kent acted in an incompetent manner with regards to the offer.
c. Kent's acceptance was past the set time period in the offer.
d. Kent's counteroffer of $60,000 had rendered the offer for $65,000 invalid.

Answers

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Kent's counteroffer of $60,000 had rendered the offer for $65,000 invalid

Reason- Whenever a counteroffer is made, it voids the earlier offers That's because real estate laws in all 50 states say that a seller who makes a written counteroffer automatically renders the buyer's original offer null and void.

Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must grow at the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2019, current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals. The after-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 4%, and the forecasted payout ratio is 45%. Use the AFN equation to forecast Broussard's additional funds needed for the coming year. Enter your answer in dollars. For example, an answer of $1.2 million should be entered as $1,200,000.
Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer: $‭412,600‬

Explanation:

AFN = Increase in assets - Increase in Liabilities - Addition to Retained Earnings

Increase in Assets

= 5,000,000 *  15%

= $750,000

Increase in Liabilities

Only use Accruals and Accounts Payable

= (450,000 + 450,000) * 15%

= $135,000

Additional to Retained Earnings

= After tax Profit

= 9,200,000 * 4%

= $368,000

Addition to retained earnings = 368,000 * ( 1 - payout ratio)

= 368,000 * ( 1 - 45%)

= $202,400‬

Additional Funds Needed (AFN) = 750,000 - 135,000 - 202,400

= $‭412,600

One year ago, Tyler Stasney founded Swift Classified Ads. Stasney remembers that you took an accounting course while in college and comes to you for advice. He wishes to know how much net income his business earned during the past year in order to decide whether to keep the company going. His accounting records consist of the T-accounts from his ledger, which were prepared by an accountant who moved to another city. The ledger at December 31 follows. The accounts have not been adjusted. Stasney indicates that at year-end, customers owe him $1,600 for accrued service revenue. These revenues have not been recorded. During the year, Stasney collected $4,000 service revenue in advance from customers, but he earned only $900 of that amount. Rent expense for the year was $2,400, and he used up $1,700 of the supplies. Stasney determines that depreciation on his equipment was $5,000 for the year. At December 31, he owes his employee $1,200 accrued salary.

Answers

Answer:

net income = $33,900

Explanation:

The T-accounts are missing, so I looked for a similar question:

Stasney indicates that at year-end, customers owe him $1,600 for accrued service revenue. These revenues have not been recorded.

Dr Accounts receivable 1,600

    Cr Service revenue 1,600

During the year, Stasney collected $4,000 service revenue in advance from customers, but he earned only $900 of that amount.

Dr Unearned revenue 900

    Cr Service revenue 900

Rent expense for the year was $2,400, and he used up $1,700 of the supplies.

Dr Rent expense 2,400

    Cr Prepaid rent 2,400

Dr Supplies expense 1,700

    Cr Supplies 1,700

Stasney determines that depreciation on his equipment was $5,000 for the year.

Dr Depreciation expense 5,000

    Cr Accumulated depreciation 5,000

At December 31, he owes his employee $1,200 accrued salary.

Dr Wages expense 1,200

    Cr Wages payable 1,200

Total expense for the year = $17,000 (paid wages) + $1,200 (accrued wages) + $800 (utilities) + $2,400 (rent) + $1,700 (supplies) + $5,000 (depreciation) = $28,100

total revenues = $59,500 (previously recorded) + $1,600 (unrecorded service revenue) + $900 (accrued service revenue) = $62,000

net income = $62,000 - $28,100 = $33,900

a. Compute the variable cost per unit using the high-low method.
b. Compute the fixed cost elements using the high-low method.
c. Estimate the total cost if the company produces 8,170 units.

Answers

Answer & Explanation:

a. Using the high-low method, Variable cost per unit is;

[tex]= \frac{Highest Variable Cost - Lowest Variable Cost}{Highest number of units - Lowest number of Units} \\\\= \frac{17,492 - 14,860}{10,480 - 8,600} \\\\= $1.40[/tex]

= $1.40

b. Fixed Cost

= Total Cost at lowest unit - Variable costs at lowest unit

= 14,860 - (1.4 * 8,600)

= $‭2,820‬

c. Variable cost at 8,170 units + Fixed cost

= (8,170 * 1.4) + 2,820

Eduardo has been reading about the use of drone technology in recent military conflicts and is not quite sure what to think. On the one hand, the use of drones means that military missions can be executed without putting American lives at risk. On the other hand, this very fact means that our political leaders might be quicker to resort to military solutions when other solutions might be available. Eduardo is also concerned about other effects of fully mechanized battle operations. For instance, unlike a human soldier, a drone can neither hear nor sympathize with a mother pleading for the life of her innocent child. Eduardo has decided to research the topic of military drones in more detail and write an essay in which he decides whether the use of drone technology is a positive or negative development in the history of American military action. Which type of argument will Eduardo be making?

a. Argument of fact
b. Argument of definition
c. Argument of evaluation
d. Policy argument

Answers

Answer:

c. Argument of evaluation

Explanation:

Eduardo will be making a decision on "whether the use of drone technology is a positive or negative development in the history of American military action."  This is a judgement call.  And he will be determining whether or not drone usage is good or bad.  So this is purely an argument of evaluation.  The argument is not of fact or definition or a policy argument, but one in which he will establish his opinion on the issue of the use of drone technology in the military.

Answers

Answer:

Please see below

Explanation:

a. Current ratio

= Total current asset / Total current liabilities

2017

Current asset. 890,400

Current liabilities 424,000

Current ratio = 890,400/424,000

= 2.1

2016 Current ratio

Current asset. 999,600

Current liabilities 357,000

Current ratio = 999,600/357,000

= 2.8

b. Earnings per share

= (Net income - Preference dividend) / Weighted average number of shares outstanding

2017

Net income. 166,830

Weighted Average number of shares outstanding 201,000

Earnings per share = $166,830/201,000

= $0.83

2016 Earnings per share

Net income $337,600

Weighted Average number of shares outstanding 211,000

Earnings per share = $337,600/211,000

= $1.6

c. Debt to asset ratio

= Total liabilities / Total assets

2017

Total liabilities 573,300

Total assets 1,950,000

= 573,300/1,950,000

= 0.29

2016 Debt to asset ratio

Total liabilities 552,132

Total assets 1,878,000

Debt to asset ratio = 552,132/1,878,000

= 0.29

d. Free cash flow

2017

Cash flow from operating activities 300,000

Less: capital expenditure (271,000)

Free cash flow 29,000

2016 free Cash flow from operating activities

Ballou Corporation declared a cash dividend on December 13, 2018, payable on January 10, 2019. By mistake, the company failed to make a journal entry in December 2018. The effect of this error on the financial statements as of December 31, 2018 were:_____.
a. retained earnings was overstated and liabilities were understated.
b. retained earnings was overstated and cash were understated.
c. retained earnings and liabilities were both understated.
d. retained earnings and liabilities were both overstated.

Answers

Answer: a. retained earnings was overstated and liabilities were understated.

Explanation:

Dividends are paid from the Retained Earnings so when a company announces a dividend, that dividend is to be deducted from the Retained earnings. As this was not done, the Retained earnings at year end are overstated.

As the dividends are not paid immediately, they become liabilities. With the relevant entries not made, the dividends were not recorded as liabilities which makes liabilities understated.

An individual has $2000 in physical assets, and $600 in cash initially. This person faces the following loss distribution to the wealth. Full insurance is available at $600

Probability Loss
0.5 0
0.1 200
0.2 400
0.1 1000
0.1 2000

The Individual can also buy partial insurance with i. a $200 deductible, or ii. 75% coinsurance, or iii. Upper limit on coverage, with the limit being $1000. The premium on each partial coverage policy is $450.

Required:
Provide a ranking of the four types of policies for the individual, in terms of preference if the preference function is given by U(FW) = LN(1+FW), where FW is final wealth of the individual.

Answers

Answer with Explanation:

Probability   Expected Loss           Loss Forecast

0.5                          0                                0

0.1                        200                              20

0.2                       400                              80

0.1                       1000                             100

0.1                       2000                            200

1.00                     Total                             400

Now,

A. Final Wealth with no Insurance = Physical Assets of the person + Cash Assets - Total Loss Forecast

By putting values, we have:

Final Wealth with no Insurance = $2,000 + $600 - $400 = $2,200

B. For Full insurance, we will not consider expected loss because we will receive Insurance Premium instead:

Final Wealth with Full Insurance = Physical Assets + Cash Assets - Insurance Premium

By putting values, we have:

Final Wealth with Full Insurance = $2,000 + $600 - $600 = $2,000

C. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $200 deductibles = Physical Assets + Cash Assets - Insurance Premium For Partial Coverage - Deductible

By putting values, we have:

Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $200 deductibles = $2,000 + $600 - $450  - $200 = $1,950

D. Final Wealth with 75% Co-insurance = Physical Assets + Cash Assets - Insurance Premium - Co-payment

By putting values, we have:

Final Wealth with 75% Co-Insurance = $2,000 + $600 - $450 - (75% * $400)

= $1,850

E. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $1,000 Upper Limit = Physical Assets + Cash Assets - Insurance Premium - Maximum Loss Expected

By putting values, we have:

= $2,000 + $600 - $450 - (Probability 0.1 * $2,000) = $1950

From the above, we can say that the best option here in descending order is as under:

1.  A. Final Wealth with no Insurance

2.  B. With Full insurance

3.  C. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $200 deductibles & E. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $1,000 Upper Limit

4.  E. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $1,000 Upper Limit

Answers

Answer: C: being the bankers' bank.

Explanation:

The Fed is the Central Bank system of the United States. This means that they have certain duties conferred on them in order to ensure that the financial system of the country does not fail.

One of those duties is to be the Bankers' Bank. This means that the Fed can loan money to Commercial banks just like how Commercial banks do to entities. In acting as the lender of last resort and loaning money to banks so that they could survive the 2007 Financial crises, the Fed was acting as the Bank for the banks.

The Pritzker Music Pavilion in downtown Chicago is a technologically sophisticated and uniquely designed performing arts venue that hosts live concerts attended by over half a million patrons a year. A group of local organizers, led by a prominent local businesswoman, would like to use the pavilion for a concert to benefit a non-profit, national network of investors and environmental organizations working with companies and investors to address sustainability challenges such as global climate change. If the pavilion management agrees to host the concert, the organizers will donate all profits to Ceres (or absorb any losses).

Based on the following revenue and cost information, the organizers would like answers to several questions.

1. There are three sources of revenue for the concert:
2. Tickets will be sold for $15.50 each.
3. A large multinational corporation headquartered in Chicago will donate $2.00 per ticket sold.
4. Each concert attendee is expected to spend an average of $17.00 for parking, food, and merchandise.
5. On the expense side, there are also three components:

A popular national group has agreed to perform at the concert. Normally, the group demands a significant fixed fee to perform, but to reduce the risk for the organizers, the group has agreed to perform for $6.00 per ticket sold. The organizers will pay several companies to operate the parking, food, and merchandise concessions. They will pay $21,000 plus 15% of all parking, food, and merchandise revenue. The organizers will pay the pavilion $85,000 plus $7.00 per person attending to cover its operating expenses (production, maintenance, advertising, etc.)

Required:
a. What is the estimated contribution margin per ticket sold for the benefit concert?
b. What are the estimated total fixed costs for the benefit concert?
c. What is the estimated profit from the benefit concert if 10,500 tickets are sold?
d. How many tickets must be sold in order for concert profit to be $100,000?
e. Assuming a tax rate of 31% on profits from the concert, what must dollar ticket sales be in order for after-tax concert profits to be $100,000?
f. Assume that the organizers can negotiate the fixed payment for the pavilion's operating expenses. If the organizers expect to sell 10,500 tickets, how much can they afford to pay and still earn a profit of $100,000 (ignore taxes)?

Answers

Answer:

a. What is the estimated contribution margin per ticket sold for the benefit concert?

contribution margin per ticket = ($15.50 + $2 + $17) - ($6 + $2.55 + $7) = $34.50 - $15.55 = $18.95

b. What are the estimated total fixed costs for the benefit concert?

total fixed costs = $21,000 + $85,000 = $106,000

c. What is the estimated profit from the benefit concert if 10,500 tickets are sold?

estimated profit = (10,500 x $18.95) - $106,000 = $92,975

d. How many tickets must be sold in order for concert profit to be $100,000?

number of tickets sold = ($106,000 + $100,000) / $18.95 = 10,870.71 ≈ 10,871 tickets sold

e. Assuming a tax rate of 31% on profits from the concert, what must dollar ticket sales be in order for after-tax concert profits to be $100,000?

$100,000 / (1 - 31%) = $144,927.54

number of tickets sold = ($106,000 + $144,927.54) / $18.95 = 13,241.56 ≈ 13,241.56 tickets sold

f. Assume that the organizers can negotiate the fixed payment for the pavilion's operating expenses. If the organizers expect to sell 10,500 tickets, how much can they afford to pay and still earn a profit of $100,000 (ignore taxes)?

contribution margin increases to $18.95 + $7 = $25.95

10,500 = ($21,000 + $100,000 + ?) / $25.95

$272,475 = $121,000 + ?

? = $151,475

you can pay up to $151,475 in fixed expenses to the pavilion
