Home equity line interest. Sean and Amy Anderson have a home with an appraised value of $180,000 and a mortgage balance of only $90,000. Given that an S&L is willing to lend money at a loan-to-value ratio of 75 percent, how big a home equity credit line can Sean and Amy obtain? How much, if any, of this line would qualify as tax-deductible interest if their house originally cost $100,000?

Answers

Answer:

$135,000

$75,000

Explanation:

Home value = $180,000

Loan to Value ratio = 75%

Formula: Maximum loan amount = Home value x loan to value ratio

Maximum loan amount = $180,000 x 75%

Maximum loan amount = $135,000

If the value of house is $100,000 then,

$100,000 x 75% = $75,000

$75,000 would qualify as Tax deductible interest

A lumber mill is capable of producing 10,000 board feet of lumber per day when run ten hours per day with minimal breaks. Over the past year, forestry legislation has reduced the availability of raw materials, so the mill has produced an average of 4,575 board feet per day. What is the utilization of the plant

Answers

Answer:

45.75%

Explanation:

When asking for the utilization of the plant, the question is basically referring to how much of its full potential is the plant currently operating at. Therefore this can be calculated by dividing its current output (4,575) by its maximum output (10,000) like so...

4,575 / 10,000 = 0.4575

Now we multiply that by 100 in order to get the percentage.

0.4575 * 100 = 45.75%

Therefore the current utilization of the plant is 45.75%

Answers

Answer:

Efficiency variance   = $1,225   favorable

Explanation:

Labour efficiency variance is the difference between the actual time taken to achieve a given production output less the standard hours allowed for same multiplied by the standard labour rate .

It occurs as result of workers working faster or slower than expected (i.e standard hour )

                                                                                Hours

standard hours                                                        1, 100

Actual hours                                                            1,000

efficiency varainec in Labour hour                        100 favorable

Standard labour rate                                             × $12.25f

In 1985, a given Japanese imported automobile sold for 1,476,000 yen, or $8,200. If the car still sold for the same amount of yen today but the current exchange rate is 144 yen per dollar, what would the car be selling for today in U.S. dollars?

Answers

Answer:

The car will be selling for $10250 today

Explanation:

To calculate the selling price of the car in dollars today, we have to convert the value of 1476000 yen into dollars based on the exchange rate between dollars and yen today. It is known that the car will be sold for the same amount of yen today for which it was sold in 1985 and this amount is 1476000 yen.

We know that 1 dollar equals 144 yen.

Thus, let x be the number of dollars that equal 1476000 yen today.

x = 1476000 / 144

x = $10250

The car will be sold for $10250 today

How much are you willing to pay to buy one share of this stock today if your desired rate of return is 8.0 percent

Answers

Answer:

The amount willing to pay to buy one share is $6.92.

Explanation:

The announcement by company to pay annual dividend = $0.10

2nd year divident amount = $0.20

3rd year divident amount = $0.30

4th year divident amount = $0.40

5th-year divident amount = $0.50

The increase in dividend = 2 percent.

The desired rate of return = 8%

Value after year 5 = (D5 × Growth rate) / (Required rate-Growth rate)

=(0.5 × 1.02) / (0.08-0.02)

=8.5

Therefore, the current value = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)

=0.1/1.08 + 0.2/1.08^2 + 0.3/1.08^3 + 0.4/1.08^4 + 0.5/1.08^5 + 8.5/1.08^5

=$6.92.

Perteet Corporation's relevant range of activity is 3,000 units to 7,000 units. When it produces and sells 5,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:

Variable manufacturing overhead $1.60
Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.00
Fixed selling expense $0.70
Fixed administrative expense $0.40
Sales commissions $0.50
Variable administrative expense $0.55
If 4,000 units are produced, the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost is closest to:__________
a. $28,000
b. $14,800
c. $21,400
d. $18,100

Answers

Answer:

Total overhead cost= $21,400

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

When it produces and sells 5,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:

Variable manufacturing overhead $1.60

Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.00

First, we need to calculate the total fixed manufacturing overhead:

Fixed overhead= 3*5,000= $15,000

Now, we can calculate the total overhead cost for 4,000 units.

Total overhead cost= total variable cost + total fixed cost

Total overhead cost= 1.6*4,000 + 15,000

Total overhead cost= $21,400

Abburi Company's manufacturing overhead is 55% of its total conversion costs. If direct labor is $58,500 and if direct materials are $29,200, the manufacturing overhead is:

Answers

Answer:

 $71,500

Explanation:

The computation of manufacturing overhead is shown below:-

We assume conversion cost = x

Conversion cost = Labor cost + manufacturing overhead

x = $58,500 + 0.55x

x = $58,500 ÷ 0.45

= $130,000

Now the manufacturing overhead is

= Conversion cost × maufacturing overhead percentage

= $130,000 × 55%

= $71,500

We simply applied the above formula

Parker & Stone, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools. The company bought some land 10 years ago for $5 million in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent these facilities from a competitor instead. If the land were sold today, the company would net $9.6 million. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $15.2 million to build, and the site requires $960,000 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction.
What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project?
Cash Flow amount $ _____

Answers

Answer:

$25,760,000

Explanation:

The net amount of decrease and increase of cash a business or individual owns.

To find the proper cash flow amount used as the initial investment in fixed assets, use the following:

Calculation of initial investment outflow = cost of land + cost of plant + grading cost

= $9,600,000 + 15,200,000, + $960,000

= $25,760,000

Calculation of initial investment outflow = $25,760,000

Therefore the initial investment outflow is $25,760,000

If workers leave a country to seek out better opportunities in another country, then this will move the original economy up along a stationary short-run aggregate supply curve. move the original economy down along a stationary short-run aggregate supply curve. shift the short-run aggregate supply curve of the original country to the left. shift the short-run aggregate supply curve of the original country to the right.

Answers

Answer: Shift the short-run aggregate supply curve of the original country to the left.

Explanation:

Workers are an input in the production of goods and services. If workers in an economy reduce in number, this would mean that there would be less workers able to produce goods and services in the country. This will invariably lead to a decrease in the amount of goods and services supplied and when there is a decrease in supply, the Short-Run Aggregate Supply curve will shift to the left to reflect this.

g on january 1 playa company acquires 90 percent ownership in seaside corporation for 180,000 the fair value of noncontrolling interest what will be the amount of consolidated net assets that would be reported

Answers

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

On January 1, Playa Company acquires 90 percent ownership in Seaside Corporation for $180,000. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest at that time is determined to be $20,000. Seaside reports net assets with a book value of $200,000 and fair value of $200,000. Playa Company reports net assets with a book value of $480,000 and a fair value of $525,000 at that time, excluding its investment in Seaside. What will be the amount of consolidated net assets that would be reported immediately after the combination?

Answer:

$680,000

Explanation:

Since Playa Company owns 90% of Seaside Corporation, it is considered Seaside's parent company and it must include all of Seaside's assets when it presents its consolidated balance sheet.

Total net assets reported = $480,000 (Playa's net assets at book value) + $200,000 (Seaside's net assets) = $680,000
