Answer: 1. a change in one of the determinants of supply
2. sellers offer more kayaks for sale.
Explanation:
1. Supply refers to the amount of goods or services that a seller is willing to sell at a given price and time. A shift in the supply curve can be caused by a change in one of the determinants of supply. e.g. number of sellers in the market or price of input.
When there's a change in one of these factors e.g let's say there's an increase in the number of sellers of a good on the market, this will lead to a shift in the supply curve to the right as there'll be more goods to be sold.
2. When the price of kayak increases, the sellers will offer more kayaks for sale. This follows the law of supply which explains that when price increases, the quantity supplied will increase as well.
As of Dec. 31, 2013, a company had current assets of $600,000 and current liabilities of $300,000. Sales of the company are expected to increase by 10 percent for each of the next two years. If all current assets and current liability accounts increase proportionately with sales, what would be the projected current ratio of the company on Dec. 31, 2015
Answer:
2.00
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what would be the projected current ratio of the company on Dec. 31, 2015
Using this formula
Current ratio =Current assets/ Current liabilities
Let plug in the formula
Current ratio =$600,000 /$300,000
Current ratio =2.00
Therefore the projected current ratio of the company on Dec. 31, 2015 is 2.00

During year 8, Clark Company manufactured equipment for its own use at a total cost of $2,400,000. The project required the entire year to complete and all costs were incurred uniformly throughout the year. At the beginning of the period, Clark was able to borrow $1,500,000 at 6% specifically for the purchase of materials and the manufacture of the equipment. The entire debt, with interest was repaid on December 31, year 8, replaced with a long-term loan. Throughout year 8, Clark Company had additional debt of $1,000,000 with a weighted average interest rate of 7%. If Clark Company capitalizes the maximum amount of interest allowable under GAAP, how much will Clark report as interest expense in year 8
Answer:
$88,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine how much will Clark report as interest expense in year 8
First step is to calculate the total interest expense for the year
Total interest expense = ($1,500,000 x 6%) + ($1,000,000 x 7%)
Total interest expense = $90,000 + $70,000
Total interest expense=$160,000
Second step is to calculate the weighted average costs
Weighted average costs = $2,400,000 / 2
Weighted average costs= $1,200,000
Third step is to calculate the capitalize interests
Capitalize interests =$1,200,000 x 6%
Capitalize interests= $72,000
Now let calculate the interest expense in year 8 using this formula
Year 8 Interest expense=Total interests - Capitalized interests
Let plug in the formula
Year 8 Interest expense= $160,000 - $72,000
Year 8 Interest expense= $88,000
Therefore The amount that Clark will report as interest expense in year 8 is $88,000

The market for the fast car with so much horsepower that handling becomes an issue is decreasing. People are more interested in buying SUVs and pickups. As a result, General Motors is stopping production of its Camaro, a car that has had limited sales recently. Since the Camaro can no longer generate enough cash to sustain its manufacture, the BCG portfolio would classify it as a:
Answer:
Dog.
Explanation:
In 1970, Bruce D. Henderson developed and created a growth-share matrix for the Boston Consulting Group (BCG). The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) growth-share matrix is a tool used for analyzing and planning product lines in a business unit. It makes use of a graphical representation of a company's product line and services to analyze and make long-term strategic plans on which to invest more on or sell off.
Generally, products are divided into four (4) main categories in the BCG growth-share matrix;
1. Dogs.
2. Stars.
3. Question marks.
4. Cash cows.
A dog refers to a product or business unit that has a very low growth rate or market share and as such generates insufficient amount of revenues.
In this scenario, Camaro isn't able to generate sufficient (enough) cash to sustain its manufacturing or production process, the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) portfolio would classify it as a dog.
Assume that the reserve requirement is 5 percent. All other things being equal, will the money supply expand more if the Fed buys $2,000 worth of bonds or if someone deposits in a bank $2,000 that she had been hiding in her cookie jar? If one creates more, how much more does it create? Support your thinking.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the reserve ratio is given as 5%, then the money multiplier will be:
= 1 / reserve requirement
= 1/5%
= 1 / 0.05
= 20.
Therefore, the money multiplier will increase by 20.
Then, the Money supply will be calculated as:
= amount x money multiplier
= 2000 x 20
= 40000
Therefore, the increase in the money supply will be $40000.
In this case, if the FED purchases $2000 worth of bonds, it'll expand the money supply more.

Why might it be argued that corporations do not have a comparative advantage when investing in real estate as a means of diversification from the core business?
Solution :
Real estate is defined as something that is related to the buildings or lands. All the properties that are physically present forms real estate in terms of land and buildings. It includes, vacant land or buildings, commercial real estate, industrial as well as residential real estate.
The corporations does not have a comparative advantage when they invest in the real estate by a means of the diversification from its core business. This is because the organizations do not hold the real estate in the large number of the geographical area. They also do not hold a number of different types of the properties. Therefore, they do not tend to diversify from their real estate holdings as the large institutional investor who hold a more diversified and a larger portfolio.

Answer:
Certificate of deposit
Explanation:
A certificate of deposit is one of the most common and safest investment mechanisms. It consists in depositing a fixed amount of money at a bank or any other financial institution that offers the service, for a fixed amount of time, and in exchange for a fixed interest rate.
Certificates of deposit are one of the safest investment options, but for the same reason, they are one of the least profitable. It is well known that one of the central principles of finance is that the higher the risk, the higher the profitability, and the lower the risk, the lower the profitability.
Charles Company acquired Jackson Company for $2,000,000 cash. At that time, the fair value of recorded assets and liabilities was $1,500,000 and $250,000, respectively. If Jackson meets specified sales targets, Charles is required to pay an additional $200,000 in cash per the acquisition agreement. Charles estimates the probability of this to be 50%. The direct costs related to the acquisition were $50,000. What was the amount of the goodwill related to the acquisition?
Answer:
$950,000
Explanation:
Goodwill is defined as the excess of Purchase Price over the Net Assets taken over.
therefore
Goodwill = Purchase Price - Fair Value of Net Assets taken over
Note : Acquisition cost is an expense and not included in this calculation.
Since the probability is more likely than not (Probability > or = 50 %) , we include the $200,000 in the Purchase Price
thus,
Goodwill = $2,200,000 - ($1,500,000 - $250,000)
= $950,000

For the first time in two years, Big G (the cereal division of General Mills) raised cereal prices by 4 percent. If, as a result of this price increase, the volume of all cereal sold by Big G changed by -2 percent, what can you infer about the own price elasticity of demand for Big G cereal
Answer:
the coefficient of elasticity is 0.5. Thus, demand is inelastic.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Price elasticity = 2/4 = 0.5
Because demand is less than1, big g has an inelastic demand.
A rectangle has length xcm and width (x-1)cm. If the perimeter is 14cm,
Find the value of x.
Answer:
x = 4 cm
Explanation:
Given that,
Length of a rectangle = x cm
Width = (x-1) cm
The perimeter of the rectangle = 14 cm
We need to find the value of x.
We know that,
Perimeter = sum of all sides
14 = 2(x+x-1)
7 = 2x-1
8 = 2x
x = 4
So, the value of x is equal to 4 cm.
Bramble Corp. expects to purchase $110000 of materials in July and $130000 of materials in August.

Downtown Stores can issue equity at a flotation cost of 8.76 percent and debt at 5.93 percent. The firm currently has a debt-equity ratio of .37 but prefers a ratio of .35. What should this firm use as their weighted average flotation cost
Answer:
8.03%
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
We know that
Total capital = Debt + Equity
= 0.35 + 1
= 1.35
Now
Weight of debt(Wd) = Value of debt ÷ Total capital
= 0.35 ÷ 1.35
Weight of equity(We) = 1 ÷ 1.35
Now Weighted average flotation cost is:
= Flotation cost of equity × weight of equity + Flotation cost of debt × Weight of debt
= (8.76% × 1 ÷ 1.35) + (5.93% × 0.35 ÷ 1.35)
= 8.03%

The return on investment will reduce from 21.9% to 18.4%.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Current controllable margin = $46,000
Current operating assets = $210,000
Current return on investment = $46,000/$210,000 * 100 = 21.9%
Increase in sales as a result of the new equipment = $10,000
Increase in depreciation = $10,000
Operating assets after the purchase of the new equipment = $250,000 ($210,000 + $40,000)
Future controllable margin = $46,000 ($46,000 + $10,000 - $10,000)
Future return on investment = $46,000/$250,000 * 100
= 18.4%
Holt Industries received a $2,000 prepayment from the Ramirez Company for the sale of new office furniture. Holt will bill Ramirez an additional $3,000 upon delivery of the furniture to Ramirez. Upon receipt of the $2,000 prepayment, how much should Holt recognize for a contract asset, a contract liability, and accounts receivable?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the contract asset, a contract liability, and accounts receivable is shown below:
The contract asset is zero as it is not satisfied with the performance obligation
The current liability is $2,000 as it denotes the deferred revenue of $2,000 so this represent the contract liability
And, the account receivable is zero as it does not have the account receivable till the delivery of the furniture
in this way it should be recorded
A firm has sales of $3 million, and 10 percent of the sales are for cash. The year-end accounts receivable balance is $285,000. What is the average collection period
Answer:
38 days
Explanation:
The first step is to calculate the average daily credit sales
= 3,000,000× 0.9/360
= 2,700,000/360
= 7500
Therefore the average collection period can be calculated as follows
= 285,000/7500
= 38
Hence the average collection period is 38 days
