Answer:
the maximum that paid to acquire bakery is $336,672.
Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
= (Value of local bakery + Present value of cost savings) × (1 - discount) × ( 1 + premium) × willing stake of bakery
= ($750,000 + $50,000) × (1 - 0.20) × (1 + 0.05) × 0.501
= $336,672
Therefore, the maximum that paid to acquire bakery is $336,672.
We simply applied the above formula
A company issues the following bonds on June 1, 2002. Series A (counts as two) Series B $50 million BBB June 1, 2030 June 1, 2008 100 Par Value Rating Maturity Call date Call price $50 million BBB June 1, 2030 Non-callable -- If both bonds have the same market liquidity, the yield-to-maturity on the Series A bond should be [ ] than yield-to-maturity on Series B bond. a) higher b) lower c) the same d) either higher or lower(depending notherfactors)
Answer: a. Higher
Explanation:
Series A is a callable bond which means that the company will be able to buy it back after a certain period of time at a price dictated in the contract.
This provision is an advantage to the Issuer but not the investors so the Issuer will have to pay the investors more to get them to buy the bond even with the presence of this provision.
This additional payment will come in the form of a higher yield. This is why callable bonds have higher yields than non-callable comparable bonds.
Coronado Industries received proceeds of $122200 on 10-year, 6% bonds issued on January 1, 2020. The bonds had a face value of $130000, pay interest annually on December 31, and have a call price of 101. Coronado uses the straight-line method of amortization. What is the amount of interest Coronado must pay the bondholders in 2020
Answer:
$7,800
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of interest Coronado must pay the bondholders in 2020
Using this formula
Interest=Bonds issued percentage*Bonds face value
Let plug in the formula
Interest=6%*$130,000
Interest=$7,800
Therefore the amount of interest Coronado must pay the bondholders in 2020 is $7,800
Explain the effect of a discretionary cut in taxes of $50 billion on the economy when the economy's marginal propensity to consume is 0.9. How does this discretionary fiscal policy differ from a discretionary increase in government spending of $40 billion dollars?
Answer:
Explanation:
Fiscal policy is the use of government spending and taxation to influence the economy. Governments use fiscal policy to influence the level of aggregate demand in the economy in an effort to achieve the economic objectives of price stability, full employment, and economic growth.
The government has two levers when setting fiscal policy:
Change the level and composition of taxation, and/or
Change the level of spending in various sectors of the economy.
There are three main types of fiscal policy:
Neutral: This type of policy is usually undertaken when an economy is in equilibrium. In this instance, government spending is fully funded by tax revenue, which has a neutral effect on the level of economic activity.
Expansionary: This type of policy is usually undertaken during recessions to increase the level of economic activity. In this instance, the government spends more money than it collects in taxes.
Contractionary: This type of policy is undertaken to pay down government debt and to cap inflation. In this case, government spending is lower than tax revenue.

Kennedy Inc. has the following data for its operation in August: Increase in direct materials inventory 100 Sets Direct materials purchased (AQ) 1,600 Sets Finished goods manufactured 700 units Direct materials purchase-price variance $ 400 Favorable Budgeted Finished goods to manufacture 800 Units Direct materials purchases 2,000 Sets Direct materials per unit of finished goods 2 Sets Direct materials price per set (SP) $ 3.60 What was the actual purchase price (AP) per set of direct materials purchased (to two decimal places)
Answer:
Actual price= $1.6 per unit
Actual price= $3.2 per set
Explanation:
To calculate the actual price, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
400= (1.8 - actual price)*2,000
400= 3,600 - 2,000actual price
2,000actual price = 3,200
actual price= $1.6 per unit

Suppose the following transactions occur during 2018. 1. Waddah, a liquor store owner in the United States, buys 80 bottles of wine from a French vineyard at a price of $30 per bottle. 2. Autozone, a U.S. company, sells 200 spark plugs to a South Korean car company at $3.50 per spark plug. 3. Taylor, a U.S. citizen, pays $350 for a snowboard he orders from Arrieta White Mountain Supplies (a U.S. company). Based on these transactions, U.S. net exports (NX) in 2018 is $ ____ . [Note: If your answer is negative don't forget to enter a minus sign]
Answer: -$1,700
Explanation:
The Net exports are to be calculated by deducting imports into the U.S. from Exports to other countries from the U.S.
Exports:
2. Autozone, a U.S. company, sells 200 spark plugs to a South Korean car company at $3.50 per spark plug.
Imports
1. Waddah, a liquor store owner in the United States, buys 80 bottles of wine from a French vineyard at a price of $30 per bottle.
= Exports - Imports
= (200 * 3.50) - [80 * 30]
= -$1,700
The third transaction is neither an import nor an export as it was conducted entirely in the U.S.

Determine each project's net present value using 7% as the discount rate. Assume that cash flows occur at each year-end. (Round your intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Project Y = $174,233.32
Project Z = $76,358.86
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
Cash flow = net income + depreciation
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
Project Y =
Depreciation = $310,000 / 5 = 62,000
62,000 + $56,100 = $118,100

Explanation:
Desert Company issued $3,158,061 of 12% bonds on January 1, 2021. The market rate of interest at that time was 9%. The bonds pay interest quarterly each March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31. What is the amount of the cash payment Desert is legally obligated to pay its creditor each quarter?
Answer:
Quarterly Interest Payment = $94741.83
Explanation:
The amount of interest payment made by coupon bonds depends on the coupon rate they carry regardless of what the interest rate in market is. Thus Desert will have to pay annual coupon rate of 12% of the face value of the bond. However, as the coupon payments are made quarterly, the quarterly interest that will be paid by Desert will be,
Quarterly Interest Payment = 3158061 * 12% * 1/4
Quarterly Interest Payment = $94741.83
When determining her distribution strategy in the United Kingdom, Sondra of Plymouth Products found that the British retail sector was very concentrated. How should her company respond to this
Answer: a. They should deal directly with retailers, cutting out wholesalers.
Explanation:
When an industry is said to be concentrated, it means that there aren't a lot of competitors in the market. This means that relatively, only a few firms are in control of the sector.
Wholesalers offer then advantage of providing a bridge with the producer and businesses when the number of businesses is too high for the producer to go to each one individually. As this is not the case here, Sondra's company should deal directly with the retailers because there are few of them.
Boenisch Corporation produces and sells a single product with the following characteristics: The company is currently selling 8,000 units per month. Fixed expenses are $406,000 per month. Management is considering using a new component that would increase the unit variable cost by $3. Since the new component would increase the features of the company's product, the marketing manager predicts that monthly sales would increase by 400 units. What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change
Answer: Increase by $2,000
Explanation:
Current net operating income is:
= Contribution margin - Fixed costs
= (68 * 8,000) - 406,000
= $138,000
If component is added, Variable cost increases by $3 to $105. New contribution margin is:
= 170 - 105
= $65
Units sold increases by 400 to 8,400.
Net operating income becomes:
= (65 * 8,400) - 406,000
= $140,000
Net operating income increased by:
= 140,000 - 138,000
= $2,000

= Amount received from shares issued - Common stock
= (33 per share * 93,000) - 465,000
= $2,604,000
b. Beginning retained earnings:
Ending retained earnings = Beginning retained earnings + Net income - Dividend
830,000 = Beginning retained earnings + 1,120,000 - 720,000
Beginning retained earnings = 830,000 - 1,120,000 + 720,000
= $430,000
c. Treasury stock:
= Shares issued - Shares outstanding
= 93,000 - 65,000

After graduating from UCF, you plan to purchase a small condominium for $100,000. You will be required by the bank to put a down payment of 10% of the purchase price. You plan to finance the loan for 30 years. Assume monthly payments and a nominal rate (monthly compounding) of 3%. What percentage of the first 25 payments goes toward paying principal
Answer:
Percentage of the first 25 payments goes toward paying principal is 41.95%.
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the amortization schedule for the first 25 months.
In the attached excel file, the monthly is calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value or the balance to pay = Cost * (100% - Percentage of down payment) = $100,000 * (100% - 10%) = $90,000
P = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = Nominal rate / 12 = 3% / 12 = 0.25%, or 0.0025
n = number of months to repay = 30 years * 12 months = 360
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for P, we have:
$90,000 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.0025))^360) / 0.0025)
$90,000 = P * 237.189381504283
P = $90,000 / 237.189381504283
P = $379.44
From the attached excel file, we have:
Total payment for the first 25 months = $9,486.09
Total repayment of principal for the first 25 months = $3,979.17
Therefore, we have:
Percentage of the first 25 payments goes toward paying principal = (Total repayment of principal for the first 25 months / Total payment for the first 25 months) * 100 = ($3,979.17 / $9,486.09) * 100 = 41.95%
Prepare an amortization schedule for a three-year loan of $66,000. The interest rate is 11 percent per year, and the loan calls for equal annual payments. How much total interest is paid over the life of the loan?
Answer:
Interest = 15,024.18 Amortization Payment = 27008.06 per year
Explanation:
A = P * [ r(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n - 1) ]
P = 66000
r = 11% = 0.11
n = 3
A = 66000 * [ 0.11(1.11)^3 / (1.11^3 - 1) ]
A = 27008.06
Total Payment = A * n = 27008.06 * 3
Total Payment = 81,024.18
Interest = Total Payment - P = 81024.18 - 66000
Interest = 15024.18
Absorption and Variable Costing Comparisons: Production Equals Sales Assume that Smuckers manufactures and sells 30,000 cases of peanut butter each quarter.
The following data are available for the third quarter of 2017.
Total fixed manufacturing overhead.......................................................90,000
Fixed selling and administrative expenses........... .. . .. . .. . . . . .. . . . . . 20,000
Sale price per case..................................................................................32
Direct materials per case .......................................................................15
Direct labor per case ........................................................................6
Variable manufacturing overhead per case ..........................................3
a. Compute the cost per case under both absorption costing and variable costing.
b. Reconcile any differences in income. Explain.
c. Compute te net income under both absorption costing and variable costing.
Answer:
a. Cost per case under Absorption costing:
= Direct materials per case + Direct labor per case + Variable manufacturing overhead per case + Fixed manufacturing overhead per case
= 15 + 6 + 3 + 90,000/ 30,000 cases
= $27
Cost per case under Variable costing:
= Direct materials per case + Direct labor per case + Variable manufacturing overhead per case
= 15 + 6 + 3
= $24
b. First we need to calculate income under both methods:
Under Absorption costing:
= Sales - Cost of goods sold - Selling and Admin expenses
= (30,000 cases * 32) - (30,000 * 27) - 20,000
= $130,000
Under Variable Costing:
= Sales - Cost of Goods sold - Fixed manufacturing overhead - Selling and Admin expenses
= (30,000 * 32) - (30,000 * 24) - 90,000 - 20,000
= $130,000
There is no difference in income because the cases manufactured equals the cases sold.
The mission of a company lays out some desired future state and articulates that the company would like to achieve
true false
Answer:
False
Explanation:
It is the Vision Statement that "lays out an entity's desired future state and articulates that the company would like to achieve it." On the other hand, the Mission Statement defines the company's business, its goals, and its strategy to achieve the goals. Simply, the mission conveys the purpose and reason for an entity's existence. A Vision Statement clearly describes the desired future state or position of the company. The vision guides the organization to make decisions that align with its philosophy and declared goals, as stated in the Mission Statement.
Minors are liable for the reasonable value of the necessary:______.
a. actually furnished.
b. that they agreed to purchase.
c. that their parents agreed to pay for.
d. all of these.
Answer:
b. that they agreed to purchase.
Explanation:
A minor is a person who is under the age of 18 and unable to make decision on his own such as mentally impaired or incompetent persons .
A minor cannot enter a contract like adults but if under any circumstance they enter into a contract of sale purchase of daily goods like clothing etc, they are liable to pay the price which they agreed to pay.
Their parents are liable only if the contract was made according to the parent's will etc.
If the minor is unable to pay the agreed amount then the minor should return the goods or fulfill any other liability as imposed by the court of law.
