As per the given situation, the calculation of the ended year the preferred stock is shown below:
Ending preferred stock balance
= Beginning balance of preferred stock + new issuance of preferred stock
= $100 million + $20 million
= $120 million
Therefore, for computing the ending preferred stock balance we simply applied the above formula and ignore all other values as they are not relevant. So the correct answer is C.

Larkspur Appliance Co. manufactures low-price, no frills appliances that are in great demand for rental units. Pricing and cost information on Larkspur main products are as follows. Item Standalone Selling Price (Cost) Refrigerator $500 ($260 ) Range 570(270 ) Stackable washer/dryer unit 690(400 ) Customers can contract to purchase either individually at the stated prices or a three-item bundle with a price of $1,800.The bundle price includes delivery and installation. Larkspur also provides installation (not a separate performance obligation). Respond to the requirements related to the following independent revenue arrangements for Larkspur Appliance Co. On June 1, 2017, Larkspur sold 100 washer/dryer units without installation to Laplante Rentals for $69,000. Laplante is a newer customer and is unsure how this product will work in its older rental units. Larkspur offers a 60-day return privilege and estimates, based on prior experience with sales on this product, 4% of the units will be returned. Prepare the journal entries for the sale and related cost of goods sold on June 1, 2017. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)
Answer:
The journal entries to record the sale on June 1 are:
June 1, 2017, 100 units of washer/dryer to Laplante Rentals
Dr Cash 69,000
Cr Sales revenue 69,000
Dr Cost of goods sold 40,000
Cr Inventory 40,000
If the next question asks to record the return privilege and estimates, it should be recorded as both an asset (estimated returns inventory) and a liability (customer refunds payable).
A U.S.-based company, Global Products Inc., has wholly owned subsidiaries across the world. Global Products Inc. sells products linked to major holidays in each country.
The president and board members of Global Products Inc. believe that the managers of their wholly owned country-level subsidiaries are best motivated and rewarded with both annual salaries and annual bonuses. The bonuses are calculated as a predetermined percentage of pretax annual income.
Señora Larza, the president of Global Products of Mexico, has worked hard this year to make her Mexican subsidiary profitable. She is looking forward to receiving her annual bonus, which is calculated as a predetermined percentage (15 percent) of this year's pretax annual income earned by Global Products of Mexico. A condensed income statement for Global Products of Mexico for the most recent year is as follows (amounts in thousands of pesos).
Sales MXN 25,000
Expenses 23,000
Pretax Income MXN 2,000
The U.S. headquarters financial group translates each of its wholly owned subsidiary's results into U.S. dollars for evaluation. After translating the Mexican pesos income statement into U.S. dollars, the condensed income statement for Global Products of Mexico is as follows (amounts in thousands of dollars).
Sales US $7,000
Expenses 8,100
Pretax Income US $(1,100)
Required:
A1. Calculate the bonus amount based on (1) the Mexican peso-based Pretax Income and (2) the U.S. dollar-based Pretax Income.
A2. Translate the peso-based bonus to U.S. dollars using a current exchange rate.
B. Calculate the average exchange rate used to translate the Mexican pesos income statement into the U.S. dollar statement for the categories: (1) Sales and (2) Expenses.
A1. Bonus on mexican peso-based Pretax Income
Bonus U.S. dollar-based Pretax Income
A2. U.S. dollars
B. Average exchange rate for sales pesos
Average exchange rate for expenses pesos
Answer:
Global Products Inc.
Global Products of Mexico
Señora Larza
A1. Bonus on mexican peso-based Pretax Income
= MXN 2,000 x 15% = MXN 300
Bonus U.S. dollar-based Pretax Income
= -$1,100 x 15% = -$165, there is no U.S. dollar-based bonus
A2. U.S. dollars
Current Exchange rate = US$1 = MXN 20.0369 (July 18, 2020)
MXN 2,000 = MXN 2,000/MXN 20.0369 = $98.19
B. Average exchange rate for sales pesos
Sales MXN 25,000 = US $7,000,
The exchange rate = US $1 = MXN 3.5714 (MXN 25,000/ US $7,000)
Average exchange rate for expenses pesos
Expenses MXN 23,000 = US $ 8,100
The exchange rate = US $1 = MXN 2.8395 (MXN 23,000/US $ 8,100)
Explanation:
Señora Larza, the president of Global Products of Mexico seems to have a bonus in Mexican peso, but when the bonus pre-tax income is translated into US dollars, the bonus turns negative just like the pre-tax income was negative. This implies that since the U.S. headquarters translates each subsidiary's results into U.S. dollars for evaluation, Señora Larza did not qualify for bonus payment for the current year.
The disparity is caused by the different exchange rates for translating the sales revenue and the expenses. Exchange rates are the rates at which currencies exchange their values for international account settlements.
Concord Company provides for bad debt expense at the rate of 2% of accounts receivable. The following data are available for 2018: Allowance for doubtful accounts, 1/1/18 (Cr.) $ 12700 Accounts written off as uncollectible during 2018 9200 Ending accounts receivable 1199000 The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance at December 31, 2018, should be $3500.00. $20480.00. $27480.00. $23980.00.
Answer:
$27,480
Explanation:
Calculation for Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance at December 31, 2018
Using this formula
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts=( Ending accounts receivable ×Bad debt expense rate ) + (Allowance for doubtful accounts -Accounts written off as uncollectible)
Let plug in the formula
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts=(1,199,000 ×2%) +(12,700-9,200)
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts =23,980+3,500
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts= $27,480
Therefore the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance at December 31, 2018 should be $27,480
The monopolist should NEVER produce in the Question 10 options: range of output for which there is a price elasticity exceeding one. range of output for which the price elasticity of demand is infinity. elastic segment of its demand curve because it can increase total revenue and reduce total cost by lowering price. inelastic segment of its demand curve because further lowering of the price reduces total revenue.
Answer:
inelastic segment of its demand curve because further lowering of the price reduces total revenue
Explanation:
Monopolistic competition is a state of the industry that deals with several firms that are closely linked to each other but offer distinct goods. In fact, this market provides free entry and exit
Therefore the monopolist never produced inelastic section of the demand curve as the price should be decline that results into fall in the total revenue
Hence, the last option is correct

The Purple Martin has annual sales of $687,400, total debt of $210,000, total equity of $365,000, and a profit margin of 5.9 percent. What is the return on assets
Answer:
7.1%
Explanation:
Purple martin has an annual sales of $687,400
The total debt is $210,000
Total equity is $365,000
Profit margin is 5.9%
= 5.9/100
= 0.059
The first step is to calculate the net income
Net income= sales×profit margin
= $687,400×0.059
= $40,556.6
The next step is to calculate the total assets
Total assets= Total debt+Total equity
= $210,000+$365,000
= $575,000
Therefore, the return on assets can be calculated as follows
ROA= Net income/Total assets
= 40,556.6/575,000
= 0.0705×100
= 7.1%
Hence the return on assets is 7.1%
In the "Input Analysis" section of the spreadsheet model, calculate the correlations between the sales of each type of product and event attendance. Use appropriate ranges from the "Past Event" worksheet for your calculations.
Answer:
The correct formula will be :
=average(past event tab then col in that tab) use this for att, programs, food, and merch
=AVERAGE('Past Events'!C4:C103)
Explanation:
To calculate the correlation between the sales of each kind of product and event attendance, from the Input analysis part of the spreadsheet model.
According to the information provided, in the targeted cell, we will use formula
=Average(data cells)
and for other part of the question is to calculate sales. For this part we can simply use the sum formula, first, we will sum the sales for a single item in past events column than at the end of the past column.
Thus, the correct formula will be :
=average(past event tab then col in that tab) use this for att, programs, food, and merch
=AVERAGE('Past Events'!C4:C103)

Below is a table indicating current inventory levels:
Item X A B C D E F G
Inventory 27 19 74 23 201 262 975 100
b. What are the net requirements for each item? (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required.)
Item Net Requirements
X
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of net requirements for each item is shown below:-
Net requirement = Gross requirement - Inventory
To compute the Gross requirement we will use the following formulas:
A = 5 × Net requirement of X
= 5 × 127
= 635
B = 2 × Net requirement of X
= 2 × 127
= 254
C = 3 × Net requirement of X
= 3 × 127
= 381
D = 3 × Net requirement of B
= 3 × 180
= 540
E = 2 × Net requirement of B
= 2 × 180
= 360
F = 4 × Net requirement of C
= 4 × 358
= 1,432
G = 1 × Net requirement of C
= 1 × 358
= 358
Item Gross Requirement Inventory Net Requirement
X 127 1 127
A 635 19 616
B 254 74 180
C 381 23 358
D 540 201 339
E 360 262 98
F 1,432 975 457
G 358 100 258
Therefore we have applied the net requirement formula.

Explanation:
George's Chemicals allocates overhead based on machine hours. Selected data for the most recent year follow. Estimated manufacturing overhead cost $235,000 Actual manufacturing overhead cost $244,200 Estimated machine hours 20,300 Actual machine hours 22,700 The estimates were made as of the beginning of the year, while the actual results were for the entire year. The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per machine hour is closest to
Answer:
$11.58 per machine hour
Explanation:
Given that: Estimated Manufacturing overhead cost =$235,000, Actual manufacturing overhead cost = $244,200 Estimated machine hours = 20,300, Actual machine hours= 22,700
The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per machine hour = Estimated manufacturing overhead cost / Estimated machine hours
= $235,000 / 20,300
= $11.5763
= $11.58 per machine hour

Explanation:
Students arrive at the Administrative Services Office at an average of one every 15 minutes, and their requests take on average 10 minutes to be processed. The service counter is staffed by only one clerk, Judy Gumshoes, who works eight hours per day. Assume Poisson arrivals and exponential service times.
a. What percentage of time is Judy idle?
b. How much time, on average, does a student spend waiting in line?
c. How long is the (waiting) line on average?
d. What is the probability that an arriving student (just before entering the Administrative Services Office) will find at least one other student waiting in line?
Answer:
a) %idle time = 0.33
b)40.2minutes
c)40.02customers
d)0.5219
Step-by-step explanation:
It was said in the question Students arrive at the Administrative Services Office at an average of one every 15 minutes which means that
λ = 60/15= 4customers/hr
It was stated that their requests take on average 10 minutes to be processed which means that
μ = average of 10minutes = 60/10 = 6customers/hr
Then let us use these information to solve the given questions
a) percentage when judy was idle = (1- λ/μ)= 1- 0.67= 0.33
%service time = 0.67
%idle time = 0.33
b)To calculate How much time, on average that a student spend waiting in line then we make use of the formula below
= λ/ μ( μ- λ)
= 0.67hrs = 0.67 x60 = 40.2minutes
c) To calculate How long the waiting line on average;
= average waiting time x arrival rate = 0.67hrs x 6customers/hr
= 40.02customers
d) the probability that an arriving student will find at least one other student waiting in line is calculated below;
P( idle time i.e no customer to attend to) = 0.33
P1( Probability of having a customer to attend to) = 0.33 x 0.67= 0.2211
P( Probability of having 2 customer to attend to) = 0.33 x 0.67x0.67 = 0.1481
Therefore, the probability of finding at least one customer = 1 -[ po + p1]
= 1 - 0.33- 0.1481 = 0.5219
Prepare journal entries to record each of the following four separate issuances of stock. A corporation issued 4,000 shares of $5 par value common stock for $35,000 cash.

Cr Paid-in Capital in excess of par value Common Stock $15,000
2.Dr Organization expenses $40,000
Cr Common stock $2,000
Cr Paid-in cap in excess of stated value Common Stock $38,000
3.Dr Organization expenses $40,000
Cr Common stock, no-par value $40,000
4. Dr Cash 60,000
Cr Preferred stock 50,000
Cr Paid-in cap in excess of par value, preferred stock 10,000
Explanation:
1. Based on the information given we told that they issued 4,000 shares of $5 par value of common stock for the amount of $35,000, which means that the transaction will be recorded as:
Dr Cash $35,000
Cr Common Stock $20,000
(4,000 Shares *$ 5 Par Value)
Cr Paid-in Capital in excess of par value Common Stock $15,000
($35,000-$20,000)
2.Since they issued 2,000 shares of no-par common stock estimated to be worth the amount of $40,000. This means that the transaction will be recorded as:
Dr Organization expenses $40,000
Cr Common stock $2,000
(2,000 Shares*$1 stated value)
Cr Paid-in cap in excess of stated value Common Stock $38,000
(40,000-2,000)
3. Based on the information given we were told that they issued 2,000 shares of no-par common estimated to be worth the amount of $40,000 in which the stock has no stated value, this means that the transaction will be recorded as.
Dr Organization expenses $40,000
Cr Common stock, no-par value $40,000
4. Based on the information given we were told that they issued 1,000 shares of $50 par value preferred stock for the amount of $60,000 which means that the transaction will be recorded as:
Dr Cash 60,000
Cr Preferred stock 50,000
(1,000 Shares *$50 par value)
Cr Paid-in cap in excess of par value, preferred stock 10,000
(60,000-50,000)
You purchased an airplane for $500,000 and will depreciate it using a 7-year an MACRS. Salvage value in year 4 is expected to be $250,000. The airplane is expected to increase revenues by $200,000 per year, however, O&M costs are expected to be $30,000 per year. Your company is in a 40% tax bracket and your MARR is 15%.

NPW_____
Answer:
Year 0 = -$500,000
Year 1 = $130,580
Year 2 = $150,980
Year 3 = $136,980
Year 4 = $433,260
NPV = $65,495
Explanation:
depreciation expense per year under 7 year MACRS table:
year 1 = $500,000 x 14.29% = $71,450
year 2 = $500,000 x 24.49% = $122,450
year 3 = $500,000 x 17.49% = $87,450
year 4 = $500,000 x 12.49% = $62,450
cash flow year 1 = [($200,000 - $30,000 - $71,450) x (1 - 40%)] + $71,450 = $130,580
cash flow year 2 = [($200,000 - $30,000 - $122,450) x (1 - 40%)] + $122,450 = $150,980
cash flow year 3 = [($200,000 - $30,000 - $87,450) x (1 - 40%)] + $87,450 = $136,980
cash flow year 4 = [($200,000 - $30,000 - $62,450 + $93,800 gain on sale) x (1 - 40%)] + $62,450 + $250,000 = $433,260
MARR = 15%
using a financial calculator, NPV = $65,495
Nathan's Athletic Apparel has 1,200 shares of 7%, $100 par value preferred stock the company issued at the beginning of 2020. All remaining shares are common stock. The company was not able to pay dividends in 2020, but plans to pay dividends of $18,000 in 2021. Required: 1. & 2. How much of the $18,000 dividend will be paid to preferred stockholders and how much will be paid to common stockholders in 2021, assuming the preferred stock is cumulative? What if the preferred stock were noncumulative?
Answer:
Nathan's Athletic Apparel
1. Preferred Stock Dividend = $120,000 x 7% = $8,400 for one year
For two years = $16,800 ($8,400 x 2)
Common Stock Dividend = $1,200 ($18,000 - $16,800)
2.If the preferred stock were noncumulative, the dividends would be:
Preferred Stock Dividend = $120,000 x 7% = $8,400
Common Stock Dividend = $9,600 ($18,000 - $8,400)
Explanation:
Preferred Stockholders' Equity = $120,000 (1,200 x $100)
Cumulative preferred stock is the type of preferred stock that accumulates unpaid dividends. If in any year the preferred dividend was not paid, the amount that was supposed to be paid would be carried forward to the next year when dividend is paid unlike an ordinary preferred stock that does not attract the arrears of dividend that was not paid in any given year.
Risk and Return. Suppose that the risk premium on stocks and other securities did, in fact, rise with total risk (i.e., the variability of returns) rather than just market risk. Explain how investors could exploit the situation to create portfolios with high expected rates of return but low levels of risk. (LO12-2)
Answer:
The overview of the given scenario is described in the explanation segment below.
Explanation:
Diversification could never eradicate the systematic risk. It's indeed primarily even though all securities shift somewhat in unison (a significant part of their volatility is purposeful) also that diversified stock strategies remain volatile.

Answer:
1. Record a liability.
2. Disclose in notes.
3. Disclose in notes.
Explanation:
The issue here relates to a Contingent Liability which is a provision that is recorded in the books as a liability if there is a likelihood that the firm will incur it in future. This is usually done for law suits.
The general rule is: Record a liability if the loss is probable and estimable.
If a loss is not probable, disclose it in the notes.
If a loss is not estimable, disclose it in the notes.
1. Loss is both estimable and it is probable that Humphrey will lose the case. It should be recorded as a liability.
2. It is probable that Humphrey will lose the case however, loss is not estimable. Disclose in the notes.
3. It is not probable that Humphrey will lose the case. Disclose in the notes.
The Company uses a periodic inventory system. For specific identification, ending inventory consists of 215 units, where 190 are from the January 30 purchase, 5 are from the January 20 purchase, and 20 are from beginning inventory. Determine the cost assigned to ending inventory and to cost of goods sold using (a) specific identification, (b) weighted average, (c) FIFO, and (d) LIFO.
Answer:
Ending inventory:
(a) specific identification = $2,720(b) weighted average = $2,810.05(c) FIFO = $2,687.50(d) LIFO = $3,010Cost of goods sold:
(a) specific identification = $6,495(b) weighted average = $6,404.95(c) FIFO = $6,527.50(d) LIFO = $6,205Explanation:
Date Activity Units Cost Total
Jan. 1 Beg. inventory 215 $14 $3,010
Jan. 10 Sales 165
Jan. 20 Purchase 160 $13 $2,080
Jan. 25 Sales 190
Jan. 30 Purchase 330 $12.50 $4,125
total Purchases 705 $13.07 $9,215
Ending inventory:
(a) specific identification = (190 x $12.50) + (5 x $13) + (20 x $14) = $2,720
(b) weighted average = 215 x $13.07 = $2,810.05
(c) FIFO = 215 x $12.50 = $2,687.50
(d) LIFO = 215 x $14 = $3,010
Cost of goods sold:
(a) specific identification = $9,215 - $2,720 = $6,495
(b) weighted average = $9,215 - $2,810.05 = $6,404.95
(c) FIFO = $9,215 - $2,687.50 = $6,527.50
(d) LIFO = $9,215 - $3,010 = $6,205

On its balance sheet and income statement, respectively, it reported total debt of $2.50 million on which it pays a 7% interest rate. To analyze a company’s financial leverage situation, you need to measure the firm’s debt management ratios. Based on the preceding information, what are the values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratios?
Answer:
The values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratio is 0.35
Explanation:
In order to calculate the values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratios we would have to make the following calculation:
debt management ratio=Total Debt / Total Assets
According to the given we have that it reported total debt of $2.50 million.
To calculate the total assets we would have to use the following formula:
Total Asset Turnover Ratio = Net Sales / Total Assets
3.50=$25,000,000/Total Assets
Total Assets=$25,000,000/3.50
Total Assets=$7,142,857
Therefore, debt management ratio=$2,500,000/$7,142,857
debt management ratio=0.35
The values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratio is 0.35

A stock has an expected return of 15.0 percent, its beta is 0.90, and the risk-free rate is 5.3 percent. What must the expected return on the market be
Answer:
16.07%
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return on the market is shown below
As we know that
Expected Return on stock = Risk free return + beta ( Expected Market Rate of Return - Risk free return )
15 % = 5.3% + 0.90 × (Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3%)
15 % - 5.3% ÷ 0.90 = Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3%
10.77% = Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3 %
So, expected market rate of return is
= 10.77 + 5.3%
= 16.07%
We simply applied the above formula
