Answer:
Uncertainty Avoidance
Explanation:
The term uncertainty avoidance was coined by a man named, Geert Hofstede to explain the extent to which people are willing to remain in a given situation so as to avoid uncomfortable circumstances. It reflects the extent to which people are unwilling to take risks. A low uncertainty avoidance index simply means that the people who have just been studied are willing to accommodate ambiguity and take risks. A high uncertainty avoidance on the other hand means that the people are more comfortable in their given positions and are unwilling to take risks.
So, in the employee situation, the degree to which employees are threatened by ambiguity is known as uncertainty avoidance.
In Sheridan Company, the Cutting Department had beginning work in process of 8800 units, transferred out 25300 units, and had an ending work in process of 5000 units. How many units were started by Sheridan during the month?
Answer:
The units were started by Sheridan during the month is 21500 units
Explanation:
The units started in the month can be derived from the below formula:
units started =units completed-beginning work-in process+ending work-in process
units completed and transferred out=25300 units
beginning work-in process is 8800 units
ending work-in process is 5000 units
units started=25300 units-8800 units+5000 units=21500 units
Assuming all other factors remain constant, if variable cost per unit increases, then the break-even point will:
Answer:
The break-even point in units increases.
Explanation:
The break-even point in units is the number of units required to cover for the fixed costs. In this sales level, the net income is zero.
To calculate the break-even point in units, you need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ (selling price - unitary variable cost)
If the unitary variable cost increases, the contribution margin per unit decreases. Therefore, now you need to sell more units to cover for the fixed costs. The break-even point in units increases.

Ann transferred land worth $200,000 with a tax basis of $40,000 to Brown Corporation, an existing entity, for 100 shares of its stock. Brown Corporation has two other shareholders, Bill and Bob, each of whom holds 100 shares. With respect to the transfer:
Answer:
Ann has a bias of $200,000 in her 100 shares in Brown Corporation.
Explanation:
The full question is as follows;
Ann transferred land worth $200,000 with a tax basis of $40,000, to Brown corporation, an existing entity, for 100 shares of its stock. Brown corporation has two other shareholders, Bill and Bob, each of whom holds 100 shares. With respect to the transfer: a. Ann has no recognized gain. b. Brown Corporation has a basis of $160,000 in the land. c. Ann has a bias of $200,000 in her 100 shares in Brown Corporation. d. Ann has a basis of $40,000 in her 100 shares in Brown Corporation. e. none of the above.
Answer
Ann has a bias of $200,000 in her 100 shares in Brown Corporation.
Explanation
From the question, we can see that Ann traded 200,000 worth of asset for 100 shares.
What this means is that the basis of her shares will be 200,000
We can also see that a capital gain of 160,000 is recognized. The capital gain is recognized because the land which was traded has a basis of 40,000 for 200,000. This makes it taxable due to the capital gain.
Hence, the land will enter Brown Corporation as 200,000 and not 160,000
What does a descriptive study seek to accomplish?
Suppose a five-year, $ 1 comma 000 bond with annual coupons has a price of $ 902.86 and a yield to maturity of 5.7 %. What is the bond's coupon rate?
Answer:
The coupon rate is 3.41%
Explanation:
The price of a bond is calculated as the present value of the annuity payments of its interest plus the present value of the face value of the bond. The formula to calculate the price of the bond is attached.
As the bond is an annual coupon paying bond, we determine the following,
r = 5.7%
n = 5 years or 5
The C or coupon payment is unknown. Let x be the coupon rate paid by the bond. Then C or coupon payment is 1000 * x or 1000x.
We know the current price of the bond. Thus putting in the available values for all the variables, we can calculate the value of x which is the coupon rate.
902.86 = 1000x * [(1 - (1+0.057)^-5) / 0.057] + 1000 / (1+0.057)^5
902.86 = 1000x * (4.246965615) + 757.92296
902.86 - 757.92296 = 4246.965615x
144.93704 / 4246.965615 = x
x = 0.03412 or 3.412% rounded off to 3.41%

Jewelcorp just began trading securities. The company is a closely-held corporation that is not trading stock on a national securities exchange. It has several dozen shareholders and $9 million in assets. Which of the following is true concerning the company’s requirement to report to the SEC?Not required to report information to the SEC. Required to report major business developments and must file annual and quarterly financial reports. Must file annual and quarterly financial reports Requirement to file depends on the company’s assets and shareholder base.
Answer:
Jewelcorp
Requirement to report to the SEC:
Not required to report information to the SEC.
Explanation:
Jewelcorp is not required to report information to the SEC. It is only publicly traded companies that are required to file their financial reports with the SEC.
The SEC Act of 1934 does not require private companies to file financial reports with the Security Exchange Commission. However, a private company can be required to file financial reports with SEC if it has over 500 common stockholders and $10 million in assets, which Jewelcorp does not possess.
Texas-Q Company produces and sells barbeque grills. Texas-Q sells three models: a small portable gas grill, a larger stationary gas grill, and the specialty smoker. In the coming year, Texas-Q expects to sell 20,000 portable grills, 50,000 stationary grills, and 5,000 smokers. Information on the three models is as follows:
Portable Stationary Smokers
Price $90 $200 $250
Variable cost per unit 45 130 140
Total fixed cost is $2,128,500.
Required:
1. What is the sales mix of portable grills to stationary grills to smokers?
2. Compute the break-even quantity of each product.
Answer:
1.
Sales mix
Portable grills = 20000/75000 = 4/15 or 26.67%
Stationary grills = 50000/75000 = 2/3 or 66.67%
Smokers = 5000/75000 = 1/15 or 6.67%
2.
Break even in units
Overall = 2128500 / 66 = 32250 units
Portable = 32250 * 4/15 = 8600
Stationary = 32250 * 2/3 = 21500
Smokers = 32250 * 1/15 = 2150
Explanation:
1.
The sales mix is the proportion of sales in units that each product holds in the in relation to the total overall sales in units of all products. The sales mix is calculated as follows,
Sales mix proportion of Product A = Sales in units Product A/Total number of sales in units of all products
The total number of sales in units of all products is,
Total sales in units = 20000 + 50000 + 5000 = 75000 units
Sales mix
Portable grills = 20000/75000 = 4/15 or 26.67%
Stationary grills = 50000/75000 = 2/3 or 66.67%
Smokers = 5000/75000 = 1/15 or 6.67%
2.
We will compute the overall break even point in units in then divide it according to the sales mix to calculate the break even in units of each product.
To calculate the overall break even in units, we need to determine the weighted average contribution per unit.
Weighted average contribution per unit = 4/15 * (90 - 45) + 2/3 * (200 - 130) + 1/15 * (250 - 140)
Weighted average contribution per unit = 66
Break even in units
Overall = 2128500 / 66 = 32250 units
Portable = 32250 * 4/15 = 8600
Stationary = 32250 * 2/3 = 21500
Smokers = 32250 * 1/15 = 2150

Consider the following conditions for an item used in the Hess Company's manufacturing process:
On-hand inventory: 40 units
Open orders (scheduled receipts): 100 units
Backorders: 60 units
Required:
What is Hess's inventory position for this item?
Answer: 80 units.
Explanation:
Hess's inventory position for this item refers to how much inventory is on order in addition to how much inventory has been ordered. There will usually be backorders and those will need to be accounted for as well.
The Inventory Position for this item can be calculated with;
Inventory Position = Open order ( scheduled receipts) + On hand inventory - Back-orders
Inventory Position = 100 + 40 - 60
Inventory Position = 80 units.
Placker Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on total fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $155,000, variable manufacturing overhead of $3.40 per machine-hour, and 50,000 machine-hours. Recently, Job A881 was completed with the following characteristics: Total machine-hours 100 Direct materials $ 645 Direct labor cost $2,300 The total job cost for Job A881 is closest to:
Answer:
Total cost of job A881= $9,445
Explanation:
The total cost of Job 881 would be the sum of the direct cost and the manufacturing overhead
Total cost = Direct material + direct labour + variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed Overhead
Direct material and labour represent cost of material and labour incurred wholly and directly for Job A881
The overhead absorption rate(OAR) would be used to charge fixed manufacturing overhead to Job A881
The absorbed overhead = OAR × actual machine hours used for Job A881
OAR = budgeted overhead ÷ budgeted machine hours
OAR = $155,000 ÷ 50,000 machine hours = $3.1 per machine hour
Fixed manufacturing overhead absorbed = $3.1 × 100 = $3,100
Variable manufacturing overhead = $3.40 × 100 = $3,400
Total cost of job A881= 645 + 2,300 + 3,400 + 3,100 = $9,445
Total cost of job A881= $9,445

The correlation between the fund returns is 0.1560. What is the expected return and standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio of the two risky funds?
Answer:
The answer is given below
Explanation:
The question is not complete. Given that:
[tex]E(r_s)=11\%,E(r_b)=8\%, \sigma(r_s)=33\%,\sigma(r_b)=25\%[/tex], ρ = 0.1560
From the covariance matrix, Cov (B, S) = [tex]\rho*\sigma_b*\sigma_s=0..1560*33*25=128.7[/tex]
The minimum-variance portfolio is gotten using the formula:
[tex]w_{min}(S)=\frac{\sigma_B^2-Cov(B,S)}{\sigma_S^2+\sigma_B^2-2Cov(B,S)}=\frac{(25^2)-128.7}{33^2+25^2-2(128.7)}=\frac{625-128.7}{225+1089-257.4}=0.4697\\\\w_{min}(B)=\frac{\sigma_S^2-Cov(B,S)}{\sigma_S^2+\sigma_B^2-2Cov(B,S)}=\frac{(33^2)-128.7}{33^2+25^2-2(128.7)}=\frac{1089-128.7}{225+1089-257.4}=0.9089[/tex]
the expected return for the minimum-variance portfolio is:
[tex]E(r_{min})=w_{min}S*E(r_s)+w_{min}B*E(r_b)=11*0.4697+0.9089*8=12.44\%[/tex]
the standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio is:
[tex]\sigma_{min}=[w_S^2\sigma_s^2+w_B^2\sigma_B^2+2w_Bw_SCov(B,S)]^\frac{1}{2} =[0.4687^2*33^2+0.9089^2*25^2+2*0.9089*0.4687*128.7]^\frac{1}{2}=29.41\%[/tex]
24. You have saved $4,000 for a down payment on a new car. The largest monthly payment you can afford is $350. The loan will have a 12% APR based on end-of-month payments. What is the most expensive car you can afford if you finance it for 48 months
Answer:
The most expensive car can be afforded is = $17290.89
Explanation:
The down payment of a new car = $4000
The mothly payment (annuity ) = $350
Interest rate on the rate = 12% = 12% / 12 per month.
Now we have to calculate the most expensive car that can be afforded with the finance time of 48 months.
Below is the calculation:
[tex]Present \ value = annuity \times \left [ \frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} \right ] \\= 350 \times \left [ \frac{1-(1+ 0.01)^{-48}}{0.01} \right ] \\= 13290.89 \\[/tex]
[tex]\text{Total value of car} = savings + present \ value \\= 4000 + 13290.89 \\= 17290.89[/tex]

Cute Camel's pool of relatively liquid assets, which are available to support the company's current and future sales, decreased from Year 1 to Year 2
This statement is,_________ because:
A) Cute Camel's total current asset balance actually increased from $6,750 million to $8,437 million between Year 1 and Year 2
B) Cute Camel's total current liabilities balance decreased by $1,687 mililion between Year 1 and Year 2
C) Cute Camel's total current liabilities balance increased from $1,013 million to $1,266 million between Year 1 and Year 2
Answer:
1. Year 2 Cash and Cash Equivalents = Current Assets - Accounts Receivable - Inventories
= 8,437 - 1,266 - 3,712
= $3,459
2. Year 2 Net Plant & equipment = Total assets - Total current assets
= $18,750 - 8,437
= $10,313
3. Year 2 Total current liability = Accruals + Notes Payable
= $176 + 996
= $1,172
4. Year 2 Retained earnings = Total Common Equity - Common Stock
= $14,063 - 9,141
= $4,922
5. This statement is False because:
A) Cute Camel's total current asset balance actually increased from $6,750 million to $8,437 million between Year 1 and Year 2
Current Assets are a pool of relatively liquid assets, which are available to support the company's current and future sales and they increased from Year 1 to 2.

Tobias, the sole shareholder, has an adjusted basis of $80,000 in his stock. Tobias is paid a $90,000 salary. Ignore the 20% QBID.
Answer:
$10,000
Explanation:
Given that:
McLin holds $90,000 of AEP, this implies what is salary is made of;
Tobias, the sole shareholder, has an adjusted basis of $80,000 in his stock.
Tobias is paid a $90,000 salary income.
Ignore the 20% QBID
We are to determine the tax aspects of the transactions
Since the company receives a $90000 for salary expense. Thus Tobias basis is zero, then :
The tax aspect of the transaction is : ($90000 - $80000)
The tax aspect of the transaction = $10,000
Harvey quit his job at State University, where he earned $45,000 a year. He figures his entrepreneurial talent or forgone entrepreneurial income to be $5,000 a year. To start the business, he cashed in $100,000 in bonds that earned 10 percent interest annually to buy a software company, Extreme Gaming. In the first year, the firm sold 11,000 units of software at $75 for each unit. Of the $75 per unit, $55 goes for the costs of production, packaging, marketing, employee wages and benefits, and rent on a building. The explicit costs of Harvey's firm in the first year were
Answer:
The explicit costs of Harvey's firm in the first year were $605,000
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
In the first year, the firm sold 11,000 units of software
$55 goes for the costs of production, packaging, marketing, employee wages and benefits
Therefore, in order to calculate explicit costs of Harvey's firm in the first year we would have to make the following calculation:
explicit costs of Harvey's firm= units of software sold*costs of production, packaging, marketing, employee wages and benefits
explicit costs of Harvey's firm=11,000*$55
explicit costs of Harvey's firm=$605,000
The explicit costs of Harvey's firm in the first year were $605,000
Regarding income taxes, which do you think is more important (and why)-- the average tax rate that a firm pays for the marginal tax rate the firm is paying?
Answer:
average tax rate
Explanation:
Based on these two tax rates I would say that the more important of the two is average tax rate. This is because the average tax rate is the total taxes you have paid divided by your total income. This therefore will always be less than the marginal tax rate because the this tax rate is divided by tax brackets which since the average tax rate is specific it will never reach the limit of the tax bracket making it less than the marginal tax rate.

___What is the firm's debt/assets ratio?
___What is the firm's ROA?
___What is the firm's ROE?
Answer:
1. Current ratio = Current Asset / Current Liability
= 24,940 / 18,920
= 1.32
2. Quick ratio = (Current Asset-inventory) / CL
= (24,940-13,760)/18,920
= 0.591
3. Days sales outstanding = (Avg AR / Sales) * 365
= 9,890/51,600 * 365
= 70.0
4. Total assets turnover = Sales/Total assets
= 51,600 / 43,000
= 1.2
5. inventory turnover ratio = Cost of Goods Sold / Average inventory
= 48,246 / 13,760
= 3.51
6. TIE = EBIT / Interest Expense
= 2,451/927
= 2.64
7. Debt/assets ratio = Total debt/Total asset
= 43,000/27,735
= 1.55
8. ROA = Net income/Total asset
= 990/43,000
= 0.0230
9. ROE = Net income/Total equity
= 990/15,265
= 0.0649
Carpenters, Inc., a manufacturing company, acquired equipment on January 1, 2017 for $ 520 comma 000. Estimated useful life of the equipment was seven years and the estimated residual value was $ 20 comma 000. On January 1, 2020, after using the equipment for three years, the total estimated useful life has been revised to nine total years. Residual value remains unchanged. The company uses the straightminusline method of depreciation. Calculate depreciation expense for 2020. (Round any intermediate calculations to two decimal places, and your final answer to the nearest dollar.)
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $47,618
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchasing price= $520,000
Useful life= 7 years
Residual value= $20,000
New useful life= 9 years
First, we need to determine the annual depreciation and accumulated depreciation before January 2020.
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (520,000 - 20,000)/7= 71,429
Accumulate depreciation= 71,429*3= $214,287
New annual depreciation:
Book value= 520,000 - 214,287= 305,713
Annual depreciation= (305,713 - 20,000) / 6
Annual depreciation= $47,618
What is a mission statement?
Select the most appropriate answer about bringing components from other continents.
a. It potentially results in better products for the customer.
b. It never affects innovation of the final product.
c.It has no impact on the production lines in the home country.
d. It always lowers the quality of the final product.
e. It always increases the cost of the final product.
Answer:
A. It potentially results in better products for the customer.
Explanation:
When components for the production of a good are imported from other continent, such could potentially results in better products for the customer because most often than not, the exporting country has superior knowledge base in terms of manufacturing these component parts which can be utilized by the importing country.
Moreover, companies import components for various reasons; either to reduce or save cost or they found superior materials somewhere else . Where they found superior materials in in other continent, then the chances of making good or better product is high because of these superior components.
Also, one of the gains in globalization is that one can source for materials or components in other continent for products that can be made locally with high quality and value.
