Answer:
D
Explanation:
A monopoly that attempts to charge the socially desirable price will invariably reduce their economic profit because average cost and marginal cost are equal.
Answer:
The correct choice is - Price is equal to the Marginal Cost.
Explanation:
Socially desirable price refers to the point on the graph where the demand (D) stands equal to or intersects the marginal cost (MC). That is MC = D.
The challenge with setting prices like this is that the business in arriving at the price of its product(s) and or service(s) has not taken into consideration the fixed cost to the business. To breakeven, the owner of a business must know its Average Total Cost (which takes into consideration both marginal and fixed costs) and set its prices equal to same. To make a profit however the business must set its prices above the Average Total Cost.
Recall that ATC = MC + F/Q where
ATC = Average Total Cost
MC = Marginal Cost
F = Fixed Cost
Q = Quantity of goods produced
D = Quantity of goods demanded

What would be the approximate expected price of a stock when dividends are expected to grow at a 25% rate in each of years 2 and 3, and then grow at a constant rate of 5% if the stock's required return is 13% and next year's dividend will be $4.00?
Answer:
$68.64
Explanation:
Div₁ = $4
Div₂ = $5
Div₃ = $6.25
Div₄ = $6.5625
the terminal value at year 3 = Div₄ / (Re - g) = $6.5625 / (13% - 5%) = $82.03
P₀ = $4/1.13 + $5/1.13² + ($6.25 + $82.03)/1.13³ = $88.28/1.13³ = $68.64
Wexim Toys sold merchandise to a customer on credit, terms 2/10, n/30 for $11,700. Three days later, the customer returned $2,300 of the merchandise. When recording the return transaction, Wexim Toys would record:__________
a) $2,300 in the Accounts Payable Cr. column and $2,300 in the Inventory Dr. column of the purchases journal. b) Debit Sales Returns and Allowances $2,300 and credit Accounts Receivable $2,300 in the general journal. c) $2,300 in the Cash Dr. column and $2,300 in the Inventory Cr. column in the cash receipts journal. d) Debit Cash $2,300 and credit Inventory $2,300 in the general journal. e) $2,300 in the Accounts Payable Dr. column and $2,300 in the Cash Cr. column of the cash payments journal.
Answer:
b) Debit Sales Returns and Allowances $2,300 and credit Accounts Receivable $2,300 in the general journal.
Explanation:
When goods were sold on account, Accounts receivables is debited, and Sales is credited. When goods are returned, Sales Return & Allowances is debited, and Accounts receivables is credited.
Thus, the entry will include Debit in Sales Returns and Allowances $2,300 and Credit in Accounts Receivable $2,300

Howard Company has 10,000 shares of $200 par value, 6% cumulative preferred stock and 150,000 shares of $50 par value common stock. Howard declares and pays cash dividends amounting to $800,000. If no arrearage on the preferred stock exists, how much in total dividends is paid to each class of stock
Answer:
Dividend - Preferred stock = $120000
Dividend - Common stock = $680000
Explanation:
The amount of dividend that is paid to each class of stock can be calculated by first calculating the dividend payable to preferred stock. The amount of dividend on preferred stock is fixed and is paid before the common stockholders are paid. Thus, dividend on preferred stock per year is,
Dividend - Preferred stock = 10000 * 200 * 0.06 = $120000
Thus, out of $800000 cash dividends, $120000 will be paid on the cumulative preferred stock.
Remaining dividend = 800000 - 120000 = $680000
The remaining $680000 will be paid to the common stockholders.
A ball rolls across a floor with an acceleration of 0.100 m/s2 in a direction opposite to its velocity. The ball has a velocity of 4.00 m/s after rolling a distance 6.00 m across the floor. What was the initial speed of the ball?a. 4.15 m/s.
b. 5.85 m/s.
c. 4.60 m/s.
d. 5.21 m/s.
e. 3.85 m/s.
Answer:
a. 4.15 m/s.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Acceleration, a = -0.100 because it's in the opposite direction.
Final velocity = 4
Distance = 6
To find the initial velocity of the ball, we would use the third equation of motion;
[tex] V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS [/tex]
Where;
V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds. U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds. a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square. S represents the displacement measured in meters.[tex] V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS [/tex]
Making U the subject, we have;
[tex] U^{2} = V^{2} - 2aS [/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] U^{2} = 4^{2} - 2*(-0.100)*(6) [/tex]
[tex] U^{2} = 16 + 1.2 [/tex]
[tex] U^{2} = 17. 2[/tex]
Taking the square root of both sides;
U = 4.147m/s ≈ 4.15m/s
Therefore, the initial speed of the ball is 4.15m/s.

(Cost of debt) Sincere Stationery Corporation needs to raise $500,000 to improve its manufacturing plant. It has decided to issue a $1,000 par value bond with a 14 percent annual coupon rate and a 10-year maturity. The investors require a 9 percent rate of return. a. Compute the market value of the bonds. b. What will the net price be if flotation costs are 10.5 percent of the market price?
Answer:
a. $1,320.88
b. $1,182.19
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. For market value of the bond
Given that
Rate = 9%
NPER = 10
PMT = $1,000 * 14% = $140
FV = $1,000
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(RATE;NPER;PMT;FV;TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the present value is $1,320.88 i.e. equivalent to the market value of the bonds
b. Now the net price be
= Market price × (1 - flotation cost)
= $1,320.88 × (1 - 0.105)
= $1,182.19
Waterway Industries purchased machinery for $905000 on January 1, 2017. Straight-line depreciation has been recorded based on a $52000 salvage value and a 5-year useful life. The machinery was sold on May 1, 2021 at a gain of $13000. How much cash did Waterway receive from the sale of the machinery?
Answer:
$ 178,733
Explanation:
From January 2017 when the machinery was acquired till May 1 2021 when it disposed of, depreciation would have been charged for full years 2017,2018,2019 and 2020 while 2021 depreciation would only be for 4 months.
Annual depreciation=cost-salvage value/ useful life
annual depreciation=($905000-$52000)/5=$170,600
depreciation for 4 years=$170,600*4=$682,400
depreciation for 4 months=$170,600*4/12=$56,867
accumulated depreciation=$682,400+$56,867=$739,267
carrying value=cost-accumulated depreciation= $905000- $739,267 =$165,733
gain on disposal=cash proceeds-carrying value
$13000=cash proceeds-$165,733
cash proceeds=$165,733 +$13000=$ 178,733

Explanation:
Anthony currently earns $25 an hour and works 40 hours a week. When his boss offers to pay him $29 per hour, Anthony decides to accept the offer, but decides to keep working 40 hours. What is the effect of Anthony's decision on the labor supply curve?
Answer:
substitution and income effects will counteract each other totally
Explanation:
A labor supply curve is an economic analysis tool that shows the number or workers that are available to work or that can work at various wage rates.
The labor supply curve can either be bending backwards or sloping downwards or upward curving but it shows the relationship between labour and wage rates.
A labor supply curve can be affected by factors such as population, changes in social behaviour, opportunities in other markets, among other things.
From the above question, it is seen that a change in wage rate for Anthony from $25 to $29 does not affect his work hours positively of negatively. His work hours is the same despite the increase in hourly wage.
The effect of the Anthony sticking to 40 hours of work despite an increase in wage, which could have served as some motivation for him to put in more hours is his labor curve remains same. An increase in wage has done noting to affect the number of hours he works and as such his income vs work rate counters each other.

Which type of supply chain collaboration includes collaborative processes across the supply chain using a set of processes and technology models including a joint business plan, sales forecasting, order planning and forecasting, order generation, and order fulfillment?
Answer:
Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR)
Explanation:
Supply chain management can be defined as the effective and efficient management of the flow of goods and services as well as all of the production processes involved in the transformation of raw materials into finished products that meet the insatiable want and need of the consumers. Generally, the supply chain management involves all the activities associated with planning, execution and supply of finished goods and services to the consumers.
The fundamental principle of supply chain management is basically a collaboration between multiple firms. These multiple firms include a company that is saddled with the responsibility of manufacturing, a wholesaler, and a retailer who typically sells the products to the customers or consumers.
Basically, these three (3) firms or individuals are required to collaborate with each other so as to meet the needs of the customers in a timely manner or fashion and at a fair price too.
Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) is a type of supply chain collaboration which includes collaborative processes across the supply chain using a set of processes and technology models including a joint business plan, sales forecasting, order planning and forecasting, order generation, and order fulfillment.
If the net present value of a project is positive (non-zero), then the project's:________.a) PI will be less than 1. b) internal rate of return will exceed its required rate of return. c) costs exceed its benefits. d) discounted payback period will exceed the life of the project. e) payback period must equal the life of the project.
Answer:
b) internal rate of return will exceed its required rate of return.
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the discount rate at which the NPV = 0. If the NPV is positive when calculated using the project's discount rate, then the IRR is going to be higher than the discount rate.
Option A is wrong because the profitability index (PI) of a project is calculated by dividing the present value of its cash flows by its cost. If the NPV is positive, it means that the present value of its cash flows will be greater than the costs, so the pI will be more than 1.
Option C is wrong because if the costs exceed the benefits, then the NPV will be negative.
Option D is wrong because that would mean that the NPV is negative.
Option E is something made up that doesn't make any sense.
Hayden Company currently sells widgets for $160 per unit. The variable cost is $60 per unit and total fixed costs equal $240,000 per year. Sales are currently 40,000 units annually, and the income tax rate is 40 percent. Required: a. Calculate the contribution margin per unit. b. Calculate break-even in units. c. Calculate break-even in sales dollars d. Calculate the current after-tax net income. e. The company is considering a 10% drop in the selling price that it believes will raise units sold by 15%. Assuming all costs stay the same, what is the impact on income if this change is made? f. How many units need to be sold to earn a pre-tax operating income of $100,000?
Answer:
a. $100
b. 2,400 units
c. $380,952
d. $2,256,000
e. 15.90 %
f. 3,400 units
Explanation:
Contribution margin per unit
Contribution margin per unit = Sales per unit less Variable Cost per unit
Therefore,
Contribution margin per unit = $160 - $60
= $100
Break-even in units
The Breakeven units is the level of activity where a firm makes neither a profit nor a loss.
Break-even in units = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Therefore,
Break-even in units = $240,000 ÷ $100
= 2,400 units
Break-even in sales dollars
Break-even in sales dollars = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio
Where,
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales
= $100 ÷ $160
= 0.63
Therefore,
Break-even in sales dollars = $240,000 ÷ 0.63
= $380,952
After-tax net income
Contribution ( $100 × 40,000 ) $4,000,000
Less Fixed Cost ($240,000)
Next Income Before Tax $3,760,000
Less Income tax at 40 % ($1,504,000)
Net Income After Tax $2,256,000
Effect of the Change on Income
First, calculate the Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL).
The DOL shows the times Net Income Before Interest and Tax will change as a result of a change in sales contribution.
Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) = Contribution ÷ Net Income
Therefore,
Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) = $4,000,000 ÷ $3,760,000
= 1.06
Effect on Income using the DOL = 1.06 × 15% = 15.90 %
Therefore Net Income would also increase by 15.90 %.
Units to be sold to earn an income of $100,000
Units to Earn a Target Profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Therefore,
Units to be sold to earn an income of $100,000 = ($100,000 + $240,000) ÷ $100
= 3,400 units
1. You have a portfolio that is invested 21% in Stock A, 34% in Stock B, and 45% in Stock C. The betas of the stocks are .66, 1.21, and 1.50, respectively. What is the beta of the portfolio? a. 1.17.b. 1.12.c. 1.38.d. 1.00.e. 1.23.2. The risk-free rate is 3.7% and the market expected return is 11.6%. What is the expected return of a stock that has a beta of 1.22?
Answer:
1.
Portfolio Beta = 1.225 rounded off to 1.23
Option e is the correct answer.
2.
r = 0.13338 or 13.338% rounded off to 13.34%
Explanation:
1.
The portfolio beta is a function of the weighted average of the individual stocks' betas that form up the portfolio. To calculate the beta of a portfolio, we use the following formula,
Portfolio Beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N
Where,
w is the weight of each stock
Portfolio Beta = 0.21 * 0.66 + 0.34 * 1.21 + 0.45 * 1.5
Portfolio Beta = 1.225 rounded off to 1.23
2.
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
rRF is the risk free rate
rM is the market return
r = 0.037 + 1.22 * (0.116 - 0.037)
r = 0.13338 or 13.338% rounded off to 13.34%

In 2007, the price of oil increased, which in turn caused the price of natural gas to rise. This can best be explained by saying that oil and natural gas are:_______.A. Complements and the higher price for oil increased the demand for natural gas. B. Complements and the higher price for oil decreased the supply of natural gas. C. Substitutes and the higher price for oil increased the demand for natural gas. D. Substitutes and the higher price for oil decreased the supply of natural gas. E. Unrelated and the prices of both products increased because of increased reliance on fossil fuels.
Answer:
C. Substitutes and the higher price for oil increased the demand for natural gas.
Explanation:
In 2007, the price of oil increased, which in turn caused the price of natural gas to rise. This can best be explained by saying that oil and natural gas are substitutes and the higher price for oil increased the demand for natural gas.
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good because they serve the same purposes.
The demand for goods is said to be elastic, when the quantity of goods demanded by consumers with respect to change in price is very large. Thus, the more easily a consumer can switch to a substitute product in relation to change in price, the greater the elasticity of demand.
Generally, consumers would like to be buy a product as its price falls or become inexpensive.
For substitute products (goods), the price elasticity of demand is always positive because the demand of a product increases when the price of its close substitute (alternative) increases.
A potential obligation that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent liability. true false
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
A potential obligation that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent liability!
- An obligation is something that is to be done
- A potential obligation is a thing or activity that is among the options of stuff that can be done
- When something depends on the future outcome of past events, it introduces or carries with it, the cost of waiting (for future outcomes)
- A contingent liability is something that poses probability of loss instead of gain. The opposite of liability is asset.
So in business, a potential obligation or action that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent loss rather than gain.

A firm is deciding between two different sewing machines. Technology A has fixed costs of $500 and marginal costs of $50 whereas Technology B has fixed costs of $250 and marginal costs of $100. At what quantity is the firm indifferent between the two technologies?
Answer: 5 units
Explanation:
Use equations.
Cost of Producing with Tech A;
= 500 + 50Q
Cost of Producing with Tech B;
= 250 + 100Q
Point of indifference;
500 + 50Q = 250 + 100Q
500 - 250 = 100Q - 50Q
50Q = 250
Q = 5 units
On January 15, 2021, James Company received a two-month, 4%, $7,000 note from Peter Long for the settlement of his open account. The entry by Jaymes Company on January 15, 2016 would include a:________
a. debit of $7,047 to Notes Receivable.
b. debit of $7,000 to Notes Receivable.
c. credit of $7.047 to Accounts Receivable.
d. credit of $7,000 to Notes Receivable,
Answer: b. debit of $7,000 to Notes Receivable.
Explanation:
James Company received a Note Receivable of $7,000 from Peter Long to settle the Receivable account so Notes Receivable will increase. As it is an asset, it will be debited when it increases so Note Receivable has to be debited $7,000.
Accounts Receivable will be credited with the same $7,000 indicate that the Receivables account has been settled by the Note.
The entry would include debit of $7,000 to Notes Receivable.
Here, James Company received a Note Receivable of $7,000 from Peter Long to settle the Receivable account, hence, the Notes Receivable will increase.
Since the Notes Receivable is an asset, it will be debited when it increases, thus, Note Receivable has to be debited with the amount of $7,000.
However, the Accounts Receivable will be credited with $7,000 to show that the Receivables account has been settled by the Note.
Hence, the Option B is correct because the entry by Jaymes Company on January 15, 2016 would include debit of $7,000 to Notes Receivable.

A company is 49% financed by risk-free debt. The interest rate is 8%, the expected market risk premium is 6%, and the beta of the company’s common stock is .59. a. What is the company cost of capital? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) Cost of capital
Answer: 9.81%
Explanation:
Cost of capital = (cost of debt * weight of debt) + ( cost of equity * weight of equity)
Cost of Equity = Risk free rate + beta * Market risk premium
= 8% + 0.59 * 6%
= 11.54%
Cost of capital = (8% * 49%) + (11.54% * 51%)
= 9.81%
A company reported the following amounts and balances: Beginning capital balance $45,000, Net Sales $420,000, Cost of Goods Sold $273,000, Total Expenses $112,000, Net Income $35,000, Ending Cash Balance $22,000, Withdrawals $7,200, Ending Accounts Receivable $27,000.
