Answer: D. The investor has no tax liability on distributions received, and the investment company has no tax liability on retained income
Explanation:
Municipal Securities are exempt of Federal taxes and this is what makes them most attractive. An investor in a mutual fund which invests solely in municipal securities will therefore not have any tax liability because their returns would be based on securities that are federally tax exempt. The same goes for any income the Mutual fund intends to retain.
A company is considering replacing an old machine, which has a market value of $95,000 and a tax basis of $145,000. The new machine would cost $210,000 and would cause a $25,000 reduction in working capital because of the need for fewer spare parts. If the company’s tax rate is 39%, what would be the initial cash outlay for this replacement project?
Answer:
$120,500
Explanation:
Net cash outflow for the new machine = Cost of new machine + net working capital - salvage value of old machine + tax (salvage value of old machine - book value of old machine)
tax (salvage value of old machine - book value of old machine) =
0.39 x ($95,000 - $145,000) = $-19,500
$210,000 + $25,000 - $95,000 -$19,500 = $120,500
Major Co. reported 2016 income of $303,000 from continuing operations before income taxes and a before-tax loss on discontinued operations of $75,000. All income is subject to a 36% tax rate. In the 2016 income statement, Major Co. would show the following line-item amounts for income tax expense and net income: Multiple Choice $109,080 and $228,000. $82,080 and $378,000. $109,080 and $145,920. $82,080 and $193,920.
Answer: $109,080; $145,920
Explanation:
Based on the information that have been provided in the question, the following can be gotten:
The amount for income tax expenses will be:
= 36% of $303,000
= 36/100 × $303,000
= 0.36 × $303,000
= $109,080
The net income will be:
Reported income = $303,000
Less income tax = $109,080
Less loss on discounted operation = $48,000
Net income = $145,920
Loss on discounted operation:
= $75,000 × (1 - 36%)
= $75,000 × (1 - 0.36)
= $75,000 × 0.64
= $48,000
By automating its shop floor, your company expects to save $81,000 annually. If the automation costs $225,000, what is the payback period of the automation?
Answer:
2.78
Explanation:
Calculation for the payback period of the automation
Using this formula
Payback period = Automation cost/ Amount to saved annually
Let plug in the formula
Payback period =$225,000/$81,000
Payback period =2.78
Therefore the payback period of the automation will be 2.78
At the end of the year, overhead applied was $42,000,000. Actual overhead was $40,300,000. Closing over/underapplied overhead into Cost of Goods Sold would cause net income to
Answer:
Hence, closing over overhead into Cost of Goods Sold would cause net income to increase by $ 1,700,000
Explanation:
Overheads are charged to units produced by the means of using an estimated overhead absorption rate. This rate is computed using budgeted overhead and budgeted activity level.
As a result of this, overhead charged to total units product might be over or under absorbed compared to the actual amount incurred.
Over applied overhead = Applied overhead - Actual overhead
= 42,000,000 - 40,300,00 = 1,700,000
Over applied overhead = $ 1,700,000
The adjustment required is to reduce the cost of gods sold by the amount of over-applied overhead because the cost of goods sold figure is would have over charged.
Hence, closing over overhead into Cost of Goods Sold would cause net income to increase by $ 1,700,000 because net income and cost of Goods Sold are inversely related.
Bond issuance: 20% of total funds, requires 15% interest per year Bank loan: 60% of total funds, requires 9.5% interest per year Preferred Stock issuance: 20% of total funds, requires 5% dividend per year What is Valentino’s average rate of return on the new project?
Answer: 28.57%
Explanation:
Average return given the variables will be;
[tex]Average rate of return = \frac{Annual net income}{Average investment}[/tex]
Average rate of return = [tex]\frac{1,000,000}{\frac{7,000,000}{2} }[/tex]
Average rate of return = 1,000,000/3,500,000
Average rate of return = 28.57%
se the following information for Jett Co. to answer the following question: 2015 2014 Sales 1,200 1,000 COGS 850 700 Operating Expenses 200 200 Income Taxes 30 35 Jett Co.'s gross profit, operating profit and net profit margins for 2015 are: A. 50.0%, 32.5%, 22.5% respectively. B. 29.2%, 12.5%, 10.0%, respectively. C. 27.0%, 11.0%, 10.5%, respectively. D. 21.5%, 17.5%, 12.0%, respectively.
Answer:
B. 29.2%, 12.5%, 10.0%
Explanation:
Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold / Sales
Gross Profit = $1,200 - $850 / $1,200
Gross Profit = $350 / $1,200
Gross Profit = 0.2917
Gross Profit = 29.17%
Operating profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Operating Expenses / Sales
Operating profit = $1,200 - $850 - $200 / $1,200
Operating profit = $150 / $1,200
Operating profit = 0.125
Operating profit = 12.5%
Net profit margin = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Income Taxes / Sales
Net profit margin= $1,200 - $850 - $200 - $30 / $1,200
Net profit margin $120 / $1,200
Net profit margin= 0.1
Net profit margin= 10%
Port Allen Chemical Company processes raw material D into joint products E and F. Raw material D costs $4 per liter. It costs $100 to convert 100 liters of D into 60 liters of E and 40 liters of F. Product F can be sold immediately for $4 per liter or processed further into Product G at an additional cost of $3 per liter. Product G can then be sold for $9 per liter.
a. Determine whether Product F should be sold or processed further into Product G.
b. Calculate the net advantage (disadvantage) of further processing.
c. Use a negative sign with your answer to indicate a net disadvantage (if applicable).
Answer:
a) Product G should be produced and sold
b) Net financial advantage $80
Explanation:
A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.
Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point are irrelevant to the decision to process further .
$
Revenue after split-off point
($9× 40 litres) 360
Revenue at the slit of point
($4 × 40) (160)
Additional income from further processing 200
Further processing cost ($3× 40) (120)
Incremental income from further processing 80
Incremental income from further processing = $80
a) The product F should be processed further and sold as product G. Doing so would increase the net income by $80.
b) Net advantage $80

Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, is the largest shopping day of the year. Do the early shoppers, who often wait in line for hours in the cold to get doorbuster sale items, have elastic or inelastic demand?
Answer:
Early shoppers have elastic demand because of the quantity demanded. That changes significantly as the result of a price change. Elastic means ‘sensitive’. Which means shoppers are responding to Black Friday deals currently happening so they can buy products they/want/need at the prices they wish to spend.
Answer: I personally would say the shoppers who wait in line for hours have an elastic demand.
Explanation: The reason why they have an elastic demand is because an elastic demand means when an elastic product is defined as one where a change in the price of the product leads to a significant change in the demand for that product. Which the people waiting outside are buying the item due to the change in price.
A $ 1 comma 000 bond with a coupon rate of 6.2% paid semiannually has two years to maturity and a yield to maturity of 6%. If interest rates fall and the yield to maturity decreases by 0.8%, what will happen to the price of the bond?
Answer:
As a result of a fall in interest and YTM, the bond price will increase by $15.04
Explanation:
To calculate the change in price due to fall in interest rate, we must first calculate the price of the bond before and after the fall of interest rates.
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * 0.062 * 0.5 = $31
Total periods (n)= 2 * 2 = 4
r or YTM = 6% * 1/2 = 3% or 0.03
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Before Interest rates Fell
Bond Price = 31 * [( 1 - (1+0.03)^-4) / 0.03] + 1000 / (1+0.03)^4
Bond Price = $1003.717098 rounded off to $1003.72
After Interest Rates Fell
New YTM = 6% - 0.8% = 5.2% or 0.052
Semi Annual YTM = 0.052 * 0.5 = 0.026
Bond Price = 31 * [( 1 - (1+0.026)^-4) / 0.026] + 1000 / (1+0.026)^4
Bond Price = $1018.764647 rounded off to $1018.76
Change in Bond Price = 1018.76 - 1003.72 = $15.04
As a result of a fall in interest and YTM, the bond price increased by $15.04

A small Canadian firm that has developed some valuable new medical products using its unique biotechnology know-how is trying to decide how best to serve the European Union. Its choices are given below. The cost of investment in manufacturing facilities will be a major one for the Canadian firm, but it is not outside its reach. If these are the firm's only options, which one would you advise it to choose? Why?
a. Manufacture the product at home and let foreign sales agents handle marketing.
b. Manufacture the product at home and set up a wholly owned subsidiary in Europe to handle marketing.
Answer:
Correct Answer:
a. Manufacture the product at home and let foreign sales agents handle marketing.
Explanation:
For the small Canadian company, manufacturing the product at home (Canada) would afford them the opportunity to protect their new medical product from piracy. Also, they would be able to receive tax incentives from their government as well file for patent of their new innovation.
The foreign agent would strictly be focused on the marketing of the finished product without having access to the detailed information of the product.

3. Show the assignment of costs to units transferred out and in process.
Units transferred out $
Units in ending work in process
Answer:
1. Compute equivalent units of production for materials and for conversion costs
Equivalent units of Materials: (Units in Beginning Work in process + Units started into production - Units in ending work in process) + Units in ending work in process
= (0 + 37,300 - 8,200) + 8,200
= 37,300
Equivalent units of conversion costs : (Units in Beginning Work in process + Units started into production - Units in ending work in process) + (Units in ending work in process * 40%)
= (0 + 37,300 - 8,200) + (8,200 * 40%)
=29,100 + 3,280
= 32,380
2. Determine the unit costs of production
Unit costs of materials = Direct materials / Equivalent units of Materials
= $78,330 / 37,300
= $2.1
Unit costs of conversion costs = (Direct labor + Overhead) / Equivalent units of conversion costs
= ($66,500 + $105,114) / 32,380
= $171,614 / 32,380
= $5.3
3. Show the assignment of costs to units transferred out and in process
Units ending work in process = Materials + Conversion costs
where, Materials = 8,200 * $2.1 = $8,202
Conversion costs = 3,281 * $5.3 = $17,389
( 8,200 * 40%)
Units ending work in process = $8,202 + $17,389
= $25,591

Equivalent Units and Cost per Equivalent Unit-Weighted-Average Method [LO5-2, LO5-3]
Pureform, Inc., uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. It manufactures a product that passes through two departments. Data for a recent month for the first department follow:
Units Materials Labor Overhead
Work in process inventory, beginning 58,000 $ 56,200 19,700 $24,100
Units started in process 549,000
Units transferred out 570,000
Work in process inventory, ending 37,000
Cost added during the month $ 743,270 $ 243,460 $297,540
The beginning work in process inventory was 80% complete with respect to materials and 65% complete with respect to labor and overhead. The ending work in process inventory was 60% complete with respect to materials and 40 % complete with respect to labor and overhead.
Required:
1. Compute the first department's equivalent units of production for materials, labor, and overhead for the month.
2. Determine the first department's cost per equivalent unit for materials, labor, and overhead for the month. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Overhead Labor Materials
1. Equivalent units of production
2. Cost per equivalent unit

1) Total equivalent unit 607,000 584,800 584,800
2) Cost per equivalent unit (a/b) 1.32 0.45 0.55
Explanation:
Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.
Cost per equivalent unit = cost / total equivalent units
1) Equivalent units of production
Material Labour Overhead

The Atlantic Company sells a product for $150 per unit. The variable cost is $60 per unit, and fixed costs are $270,000. What is the break-even point in sales units?_____________________________________ What is the break-even points in sales units if the company desires a target profit of $36,000?
Answer:
The break even units are 3000 units and when it desires the profit of $36000 then sales unit is 3400 units.
Explanation:
The selling price of a product (SP) = $150 per unit.
Variable cost (VC) = $60 per unit.
Fixed cost of the company = $270000
Break-even units can be calculated by dividing the fixed cost from the difference in selling price and variable cost.
Break even Units = (fixed cost) / ( SP – VC)
= 270000 / (150-60)
= 3000 units.
Break-even units when a company desires a profit of $36000.
Desired units for sales = (Fixed Cost + Profit)/ Contribution per unit
= (270,000 + 36,000) / (150 - 60)
= 3,400 units
Your firm has total sales of $22,980, costs of $14,715, and depreciation of $6,045. The tax rate is 34 percent. There are no interest expenses or other income. What is the operating cash flow?
Answer:
Thus, Operating cash flow for company is $7,510.20.
Explanation:
Total Sales = $22,980
Cost of goods sold = $14,715
Depreciation = $6,045
Profit before tax = Total Sales – Cost of goods sold – Depreciation
= $22,980 – $14,715 – $6,045
=$2,220
Profit before tax is $2,220
Tax rate = 34%
Net profit = profit before tax × (1 – 34%)
= $1,465.20
Net profit for company is $1,465.20.
Operating cash flow = Net profit + Depreciation
= $1,465.20 + $6,045
= $7,510.20
Thus, Operating cash flow for company is $7,510.20.
whipple corp. just issued 310,000 bonds with a coupon rate of 6.20 percent paid semiannually that mature in 15 years. The bonds have a YTM of 6.64 percent and have a par valueof 2000. how money was raised from the sale of the bonds?
Answer:
$594,338,200 was raised from the sale of the bonds.
Explanation:
The Price of the bond (PV) can be determined using a financial calculator as follows :
Pmt = ($2,000 × 6.20 %) / 2 = $62
P/yr = 2
n = 15 × 2 = 30
YTM = 6.64 %
FV = $2,000
PV = ?
Therefore, PV = $1,917.22
Money raised = 310,000 bonds × $1,917.22
= $594,338,200

Giving the following information:
Mercon Wurcon
Direct materials cost per unit $ 9.00 $ 7.00
Direct labor cost per unit $15.00 $ 17.00
Direct labor-hours per unit 0.40 4.80
Number of units produced 4,000 8,000
A. First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Total direct labor hours= 0.4*4,000 + 4.8*8,000= 40,000
Overhead= 1,600,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,600,000/40,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $40 per direct labor hour
Now, we can determine the unitary product cost.
Mercon= 9 + 15 + 40*0.4= $37
Wurcon= 7 + 17 + 4.8*40= $216
B.
Mercon Wurcon Total
Engineering design time (in hours) 8,000 8,000 16,000
Now, we have two different allocation rates:
Direct-labor hours= 800,000/40,000= $20 per direct labor hour
Engineer desing= 800,000/16,000= $50 per engineer desing hour
Finally, we can determine the unitary product cost:
Engineer design per unit:
Mercon= 8,000/4,000= 2
Wurcon= 8,000/8,000= 1
Mercon= 9 + 15 + (20*0.4 + 50*2) = $132
Wurcon= 7 + 17 + (20*4.8 + 50*1)= $170

d. financing activities
Answer:
b. investing activities
Explanation:
Cash flow can be defined as the net amount of cash and cash-equivalents that is flowing into (received) and out (given) of a business. There are three components of the cash flow;
1. Operating cash flow: all cash generated from the business activities of an organization.
2. Financing cash flow: all payments made by an organization and profits from issuance of debts and equity.
3. Investing cash flow: costs associated with purchasing of capital assets and investments of cash resources in other businesses.
A company purchases equipment for $32,000 cash. This transaction should be shown on the statement of cash flows under investing activities.
Generally, investing activities comprises of purchasing physical assets, investing in securities and the sale of assets or securities associated with the company.
Hence, a company that purchases equipment for $32,000 cash should show the transaction on the statement of cash flows under investing activities.
Windy Inc. is considering expanding on some land that it currently owns. The initial cost of the land was $300,000 and it is currently valued at $251,900. The company has some unused equipment that it currently owns valued at $30,000 that could be used for this project if $15,000 is spent for equipment modifications. What is the amount of the initial cash flow for this expansion project
Answer:
The amount of the initial cash flow for this expansion project is $15,000.
Explanation:
It is important to remember that Sunk costs are not relevant for decision making.
Sunk Cost are costs already incurred as a results of past decisions.
The Cost of Land of $300,000 and the Cost of Equipment Valued at $30,000 are both Sunk costs and are not relevant for this expansion project.
The Relevant Costs (Initial Cash Flow) is $15,000 for modifications.
4. It is estimated that you pay $2,000 per year into the Social Security System (FICA) over your 40-year work span. For simplicity, assume that your annuity of $2,000 per year, starting with your 26th birthday and continuing through your 65th birthday. The deposit is done at the end of the year. However, the government decides to provide you the annual withdrawal only after the end of 67th birthday. If the government interest rate is 6% per year, what equal annual withdrawal you can do, if you expect to live till the end of 86th birthday
Answer:
$30,320.94
Explanation:
first we must determine the future value of your social security contributions:
when you are 65, your contributions will be worth = $2,000 x 154.762 (FV annuity factor, 6%, 40 periods) = $309,524
now we must determine the value of the contributions when you are 67:
FV = $309,524 x (1 + 6%)² = $347,781.17
you expect to live 20 more years, so we need to determine the annuity payment:
annuity payment = principal / PV annuity factor, 6%, 20 periods = $347,781.17 / 11.470 = $30,320.94
1. Suppose that nominal GDP was $11 trillion in 2040 in Bedrock. In 2050, nominal GDP was $15 trillion in Bedrock. The price level fell 6% between 2040 and 2050, and population growth was 3%. Between 2040 and 2050 in Mordor, nominal GDP growth was______% and economic growth was______%.
2. Suppose that nominal GDP was $20 trillion in 2040 in Mordor. In 2050, nominal GDP was $18 trillion in Mordor. The price level rose 3% between 2040 and 2050, and population growth was 2%. Between 2040 and 2050 in Mordor, nominal GDP growth was______% and economic growth was_______%.
3. Suppose that nominal GDP was $8 trillion in 2040 in Mordor. In 2050, nominal GDP was $10 trillion in Mordor. The price level rose 18.0% between 2040 and 2050, and population growth was 13.0%. Between 2040 and 2050 in Mordor, nominal GDP growth was______% and economic growth was______%.
1. The nominal GDP growth and economic growths are 36.4% and 39.4%.
2. The nominal GDP growth and economic growths are -10% and -15%.
3. The nominal GDP growth and economic growths are 25% and -6%.
Calculation of normal GDP growth & economic growth:1.
Nominal GDP growth is
= (Nominal GDP as on 2050 - Nominal GDP as on 2040) × 100 ÷ (Nominal GDP as on 2040)
= ($15 trillion - $11 trillion) × 100 ÷ $11 trilion
= 36.4 %
Now
Economic growth is
= Nominal GDP growth rate - fall in price level - population growth rate
= 36.4% - (-6%) - 3%
= 39.4%
2.
Nominal GDP growth is
= (Nominal GDP as on 2050 - Nominal GDP as on 2040) × 100 ÷ (Nominal GDP as on 2040)
= ($18 trillion - $20 trillion) × 100 ÷ $20 trilion
= -10%
Now
Economic growth is
= Nominal GDP growth rate - rise in price level - population growth rate
= -10% - 3% - 2%
= -15%
3.
Nominal GDP growth is
= (Nominal GDP as on 2050 - Nominal GDP as on 2040) × 100 ÷ (Nominal GDP as on 2040)
= ($10 trillion - $8 trillion) × 100 ÷ $8 trilion
= 25%
Now
Economic growth is
= Nominal GDP growth rate - rise in price level - population growth rate
= 25% - 18% - 13%
= -6%

"Jaymes Corporation produces high-performance rotors. It expects to produce 78,000 rotors in the coming year. It has invested $12,566,667 to produce rotors. The company has a required return on investment of 18%. What is its ROI per unit
Answer:
$29
Explanation:
The computation of return on investment per unit is shown below:-
Return on investment = Total Investment × Required Rate on Investment
= $12,566,667 × 18%
= $2,262,000.06
Return in investment per unit = Required ROI ÷ Total Rotors
= $2,262,000.06 ÷ 78,000
= $29
Therefore for computing the return on investment we simply applied the above formula.
A $20,000 loan with interest at 3.5% is being repaid by 35 level annual payments. The first payment is due one year after the loan is issued. Beginning with the seventeenth payment, the borrower is permitted to pay only one-third the normal annual payment. After the twelfth reduced payment, the loan is renegotiated. The revised level payment P will yield the lender 4% per year over the remaining seven years. Find P.
Answer:
To find EMI (P) we know that the yearly EMI for the loan of $20000 for 35 years at an interest of 3.5% is $992 per year.
Therefore upon calculating the loan after the seventeenth year we have $19252
The EMI calculated after the one-third permitted on the seventeenth payment is, therefore: $992*1/3= 992/3=$330
Therefore, the balance calculated after the twenty-seventh instalment = $6150
Therefore the yearly EMI (P) for the loan of $6150 at 4% for the remaining eight years is $900 per year.
