Answer:
In this case, the liquidated damages are too high and can be considered a penalty instead. Unreasonable penalties, like this one, can be considered unenforceable since they are treated as coercive measures to force the contractor to finish early. Big Bad Wolf would probably have to pay only the actual loss suffered by Johnny Pig ($1,000), instead of the amount stated as liquidated damages ($1,800).
Victoria Enterprises expects earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) next year of $ 2.5 million. Its depreciation and capital expenditures will both be $ 295 comma 000, and it expects its capital expenditures to always equal its depreciation. Its working capital will increase by $ 53 comma 000 over the next year. Its tax rate is 40 %. If its WACC is 11 % and its FCFs are expected to increase at 4 % per year in perpetuity, what is its enterprise value?
Answer:
Value of Victoria Enterprises= $21,498,285.71
Explanation:
Free cash flow represents the amount that is left to all the providers of capital after the payment of all all operating expenses, working capital and investment in fixed asset expenditures.
It is computed as cash flow made from operation less capital expenditures
For Victoria Enterprises
The Free cash flow
= EBIT(1-T) + depreciation- increase in capital expenditure - increase in working capital
= 2.5 × (1-0.4) + 0.295 - 0.295 - 0.053
= 2,500,000 × (1-0.4) + 295,000 -295,000- 53,000
FCFF= $1,447,000
Value of a firm = FCFF (1+g)/(WACC-g)
g- growth rate - 4%, WACC- 11%, FCFF-1,447,000
Value of Victoria = 1,447,000 × (1+0.04)/(0.11- 0.04) = 21,498,285.71
Value of Victoria= $21,498,285.71
Similar to stock prices, bond values are derived as the discounted value of all cash flows received from bond ownership in exchange for the bond's price. The two main cash flows an investor receives in exchange for purchasing a bond are:
Answer: b. Interest or Coupon Payments (PMT) throughout the bond's life expand and the repayment of the principal or Face Value at the bond's maturity (FV).
Explanation:
For most bonds, a bond holder receives interest payments from the bond issuer in terms of coupon payments for the duration of the life of the bond. The coupon payment is a steady payment based on the par value of the bond.
When the bond matures, the bond holder receives the Principal/Face Value of the bond back. This value of usually the Par value of the bond regardless of how much the bond holder bought the bond for.

A team is working on a cutting-edge technology, and does not have a lot of familiarity with the technical environment. As a result, it is struggling to estimate a complex story because the approach itself is not clear. How should the team proceed
Answer:
The answer is "Writing a SPIKE (a non-technical nonstory) as well as the period box until you accept your system planning article".
Explanation:
The working of the team is on state-of-the-art technology and its understanding of the relevant setting, and its main purpose of removing technological complexity is to conduct experiments-this is what a SPIKE tale is about. Whenever a story could not be predicted as the manager wants an experiment, it's indeed best to read a piece before continuing to work on the storyline.

6. What aggregate planning difficulty that might confront an organization offering a variety of products and/or services would not confront an organization offering one or a few similar products or services
Explanation:
Aggregate planning can be defined as a marketing tool whose objective is to develop a 6 to 18 month plan for the organizational production process, in order to plan in advance the need for the amount of materials and resources that a company needs to have in each period time, so costs are reduced.
Some aggregate planning decisions involve the amount of subcontracting items, the amount of outsourcing, overtime hours, the amount of inventory to be maintained and to be accumulated in a certain period, etc.
Aggregated planning helps the organization to meet demand and supply in a period of time, and it is also possible to be an instrument of influence on supply and demand, so an organization that offers a variety of products and / or services could face difficulties management of all the variables necessary for the production of varied items, as this planning takes time, affects costs, customer satisfaction, synchronization of the supply chain, etc.
Fifteen years ago, Mr. Fairhold paid $50,000 for a single-premium annuity contract. This year, he began receiving a $1,300 monthly payment that will continue for his life. On the basis of his age, he can expect to receive $312,000. How much of each monthly payment is taxable income to Mr. Fairhold
Answer: $1091.61
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that fifteen years ago, Mr. Fairhold paid $50,000 for a single-premium annuity contract and that this year, he began receiving a $1,300 monthly payment that will continue for his life and based on his age, he can expect to receive $312,000. The amount of each monthly payment is taxable income to Mr. Fairhold goes thus:
Based on the question, Mr Fairhold will have a tax free return of the $50,000 paid. The exclusion ratio will be the investment divided by the expected return. This will be:
= $50,000/$312,000
= 0.1603
Since he received monthly payment of $1,300 and exclusion ratio is 0.1603, the tax free return on investment will be:
= $1,300 × 0.1603
= $208.39
Taxable annuity payment will now be:
= $1300 - $208.39
= $1091.61
Your uncle is about to retire, and he wants to buy an annuity that will provide him with $75,000 of income a year for 20 years, with the first payment coming immediately. The going rate on such annuities is 5.25%. How much would it cost him to buy the annuity today
Answer:
The annuity will cost him $963,212.95.-
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow= $75,000
Interest rate= 0.0525
n= 20
First, we need to calculate the final value. We will use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i + {[A*(1+i)^n]-A}
A= annual cash flow
FV= {75,000*[(1.0525^20) - 1]/0.0525} + {[75,000*(1.0525^20)] - 75,000}
FV= 2,546,491.88 + 133,690.82= $2,680,182.70
Now, the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 2,680,182.70/(1.0525^20)
PV= $963,212.95

Answer:
1. Huprey can resonably estimate that a pending lawsuit will result in damages of $1,280,000, it is probable that Huprey will lose the case.
Record a liability.2. It is reasonably possible that Huprey will lose a pending lawsuit. The loss cannot be estimable.
Disclose in notes.3. Huprey is being sued for damages of $2,400,000. It is very unlikely (remote) that Huprey will lose the case.
Have no disclosure.Explanation:
Contingent liabilities must be recorded only when it is probable that the liability will happen and you can estimate the associated costs.
When contingent liabilities are only reasonably possible or you cannot estimate the amount, they must be included in the footnotes of the financial statements.
When contingent liabilities are not reasonably possible, nothing needs to be disclosed.

Ending Inventory 26 See Calculations
c) Average cost of goods = Cost of goods available for sale/Quantity of goods available for sale = $343,640/275 = $1,249.60
d) Under the periodic inventory system:
1) FIFO assumes that the goods bought first are sold first.
2) LIFO assumes that the goods bought last are sold first
3) Weighted Average takes for granted that the cost of goods available for sale and inventory can be determined with the weighted average.
Using the period inventory system, it is when physical count is taken of inventory that one can estimate its value. Unlike the perpetual inventory system, the periodic inventory system waits till a financial period ends to value stock. The results for ending inventory under the weighted average method, using the perpetual inventory system differs from the results under the same method, using the periodic inventory system.
Sunland Company applies overhead on the basis of 200% of direct labor cost. Job No. 501 is charged with $320000 of direct materials costs and $410000 of manufacturing overhead. The total manufacturing costs for Job No. 501 is $1140000. $1050000. $935000. $730000.

The BRIE model for entrepreneurship refers to:
Boundary: creating a physical place for your business and creating a mental place for your business inside your customers' mindsResources: all the physical resources that your business possesses Intention: how determined you are in making your business succeed Exchange: actually make your business generate revenue and business transactionsRafael has decided to retire once he has $1,000,000 in his retirement account. At the end of each year, he will contribute $7,000 to the account, which is expected to provide an annual return of 6.2%. How many years will it take until he can retire
Answer:
38 years
Explanation:
in order to determine the amount of years that it will take Rafael to retire, we can use the future value annuity formula:
future value = payment x annuity factor
we know:
future value = $1,000,000payment = $7,000annuity factor = $1,000,000 / $7,000 = 142.8571
the formula to calculate an annuity factor = [(1 + r)ⁿ - 1] / r
142.8571 = [(1 + 0.062)ⁿ - 1] / 0.062
8.8571 = (1.062)ⁿ - 1
9.8571 = (1.062)ⁿ
using a scientific calculator, we can determine the value of n = 38.0389491 years ≈ 38 years
Compute net income for 2019 by comparing total equity amounts for these two years and using the following information: During 2019, the owner invested $33,000 additional cash in the business (in exchange for common stock) and the company paid a $36,000 cash dividend.

Building 0 190, 398
Land 0 47,511
Accounts payable 79,245 39,303
Note payable 0 137,909
Answer:
net income during 2019 = $109,045
Explanation:
total stockholder equity 2018 = assets - liabilities = $293,500 - $79,245 = $214,255
total stockholder equity 2019 = assets - liabilities = $497,512 - $177,212 = $320,300
change in equity from 2018 to 2019 = $106,045
$33,000 can be explained by additional capital invested, and the remaining $73,045 corresponds to change in retained earnings
change in retained earnings = net income - dividends distributed
$73,045 = net income - $36,000
net income = $109,045
The required return on the stock of Moe's Pizza is 10.8 percent and aftertax required return on the company's debt is 3.40 percent. The company's market value capital structure consists of 69 percent equity. The company is considering a new project that is less risky than current operations and it feels the risk adjustment factor is minus 1.9 percent. The tax rate is 39 percent. What is the required return for the new project? rev: 12_20_2018_QC_CS-152115 Multiple Choice 10.41% 6.19% 8.51% 9.99% 6.61%
Answer:
The required return for the new project is 6.87%
Explanation:
In order to calculate the required return for the new project we would have to calculate the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) adjusted by risk adjustment factor .
The Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) = [After Tax Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt] + [Cost of equity x Weight of Equity]
After -tax Cost of Debt = 3.40%
Cost of Equity = 10.80%
Weight of Debt = 0.39
Weight of Equity = 0.69
Therefore, the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) = [After Tax Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt] + [Cost of equity x Weight of Equity]
= [3.40% x 0.39] + [10.80% x 0.69]
= 1.32% + 7.45%
= 8.77%
The required return for the new project = Weighted Average Cost of Capital – Risk Adjustment Factor
= 8.77% - 1.90%
= 6.87%
The required return for the new project is 6.87%
Decision Making Mystic Bottling Company bottles popular beverages in the Bottling Department. The beverages are produced by blending concentrate with water and sugar. The concentrate is purchased from a concentrate producer. The concentrate producer sets higher prices for the more popular concentrate flavors. A simplified Bottling Department cost of production report separating the cost of bottling the four flavors follows:
A B C D E
1 Orange Cola Lemon-Lime Root Beer
2 Concentrate $ 4,625 $129,000 $ 105,000 $ 7,600

5 Bottles 5,500 132,000 110,000 8,800
6 Flavor changeover 3,000 4,800 4,000 10,000
7 Conversion cost 1,750 24,000 20,000 2,800
8 Total cost transferred to finished goods $19,125 $391,800 $324,000 $36,000
9 Number of cases 2,500 60,000 50,000 4,000
10 Beginning and ending work in process inventories are negligible, so they are omitted from the cost of production report. The flavor changeover cost represents the cost of cleaning the bottling machines between production runs of different flavors.
Determine the cost per case for each of the four flavors. Round your answers to two decimal places
Orange Cola Lemon-Lime Root Beer

finished goods a $19,125 $391,800 $324,000 $36,000
Number of cases b 2,500 60,000 50,000 4,000
Cost Per Case $7.65 $6.53 $6.48 $9
(c = a ÷ b)
Therefore we divide the total cost transferred to finished out by number of cases to figure out the cost per case.

Answer:
a. Debit Utilities Expense $680
Credit Accounts Payable $680
Explanation:
Russel Co has received a utility bill for the current month but they intend to pay next month.
Since the expense is for this month it must be recognised now. So there will be a debit to the Utilities Expense account for $680.
The payment is not being made now but in the next month. This is an amount the business owes so it will be recorded as a credit to Accounts Payable of $680
Accounts payable is used to record monies that the business owes its creditors. Payments are due at a future date.
Answer:
Debit Utilities Expense 680
Credit Accounts Payable 680
Explanation:
Russell Co. Journal entry to record the receipt of the bill will be:
Debit Utilities Expense 680
Credit Accounts Payable 680
Since Russell Co. received a $680 utility bill which is not yet due until the end of the next month which means we have to Debit Utilities Expense with 680 which is the amount not yet due and Credit Accounts Payable with the same amount .

Van Frank Telecommunications has a patent on a cellular transmission process. The company has amortized the patent on a straight-line basis since 2017, when it was acquired at a cost of $10.8 million at the beginning of that year. Due to rapid technological advances in the industry, management decided that the patent would benefit the company over a total of six years rather than the nine-year life being used to amortize its cost. The decision was made at the beginning of 2021.Required:
Prepare the appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2021 to reflect the revised estimate.
Answer:
The appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2021 to reflect the revised estimate would be as follows:
Amortization Expense Dr. 3 million
Patent Cr. 3 million
Explanation:
In order to Prepare the appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2021 to reflect the revised estimate we would have to make the following calculations:
Calculation after the Change:
Original Cost =$10.8 million
Annual Amortization (Old) =$10.8 million/9 = $1.2 million
Amortization till Date (2017 - 2021) = 1.2*4 = 4.8 million
Unamortized Value = 10.8 - 4.8 = 6 million
Remaining Life = 6 - 4 = 2 Years
New Amortization = Unamortized Value/Remaining Life = 6/2 = 3 million
Therefore, the appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2021 to reflect the revised estimate would be as follows:
Amortization Expense Dr. 3 million
Patent Cr. 3 million
Zaid's Tent Company has total fixed costs of $300,000 per year. The firm's average variable cost is $65 for 10,000 tents. At that level of output, the firm's average total costs equal Group of answer choices $65 $75 $85 $95
Answer:
$95
Explanation:
average variable cost per unit = $65
average fixed cost per unit = $300,000 / 10,000 = $30
average total cost per unit = $95
Fixed costs do not vary if the production output changes, while variable costs move in the same direction as the production output, e.g. if output increases, variable costs increase as well.
A company will pay a $2 per share dividend in 1 year. The dividend in 2 years will be $4 per share, and it is expected that dividends will grow at 5% per year thereafter. The expected rate of return on the stock is 12%.
Required:
a. What is the current price of the stock?
b. What is the expected price of the stock in a year?
c. Show that the expected return, 12%, equals dividend yield plus capital appreciation.
Answer:
current price P = $ 52.81
The expected price of the stock after one year = $57.16
The Total expected return for any investor after one year = 12%
Explanation:
Given that:
Dividend paid in 1 year = $2/ share
Dividend paid in 2 years = $4/share
Expect growth rate of the dividends g = 5% = 0.05
Expected rate of return on the stock r =12% = 0.12
Required:
a. What is the current price of the stock?
To calculate the current price of the stock ; we need to first determine the terminal value of the stock which can be done by using the formula:
[tex]Terminal \ Value = \dfrac{Dividend \ for \ the \ second \ year*(1+g)}{r-g}[/tex]
[tex]Terminal \ Value = \dfrac{4*(1+0.05)}{0.12-0.05}[/tex]
[tex]Terminal \ Value = \dfrac{4*(1.05)}{0.07}[/tex]
[tex]Terminal \ Value = \dfrac{4.2}{0.07}[/tex]
Terminal value = $60
Now; the current price of the stock is calculate as follows:
[tex]current \ price \ P = \dfrac{\$ 2}{(1+0.12)^1} + \dfrac{\$ 4 }{(1+0.12)^2} + \dfrac{\$ 60}{(1+0.12)^2}[/tex]
[tex]current \ price \ P = \dfrac{\$ 2}{1.12} + \dfrac{\$ 4 }{1.2544} + \dfrac{\$ 60}{1.2544}[/tex]
current price P = $1.79 + $3.19 + $47.83
current price P = $ 52.81
b) What is the expected price of the stock in a year?
The expected price of the stock after one year = [tex]\dfrac{\$ 4}{(1+0.12)^1}+ \dfrac{\$60}{(1+0.12)^1}[/tex]
The expected price of the stock after one year = $3.58 + $53.58
The expected price of the stock after one year = $57.16
c. Show that the expected return, 12%, equals dividend yield plus capital appreciation.
We understand now that the current price of the sock = $52.81
and the expected price of the stock after one year = $57.16 ; so any investor who purchased the stock at the current price will receive a dividend of $2 after one year.
Hence;
The Total expected return for any investor after one year =( (price after one year - current price ) + Dividend received) /current price
The Total expected return for any investor after one year =( ($57.16 - $52.81)+ $2 )/$52.81
The Total expected return for any investor after one year = ($4.35+$2)/$52.81
The Total expected return for any investor after one year = 0.12
The Total expected return for any investor after one year = 12%
Melissa recently paid $870 for round-trip airfare to San Francisco to attend a business conference for three days. Melissa also paid the following expenses: $400 fee to register for the conference, $260 per night for three nights’ lodging, $120 for meals, and $425 for cab fare. (Leave no answers blank. Enter zero if applicable. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to the nearest dollar amount.) b. Suppose that while Melissa was on the coast, she also spent two days sightseeing the national parks in the area. To do the sightseeing, she paid $1,010 for transportation, $1,055 for lodging, and $495 for meals during this part of her trip, which she considers personal in nature. What amount of the total costs can Melissa deduct as business expenses?
Answer:
$2,535
Explanation:
you can deduct only business related costs:
50% of the money spent on meals = $120 x 50% = $60100% of transportation expenses = $870 + $425 = $1,295100% lodging expenses = $780100% of the registration fee = $400total deductions = $2,535Expenses that are not considered business related, e.g. sightseeing, cannot be deducted as business expenses.
You work for a marketing agency advising a client considering whether to drop prices during an economic downturn. The client, a manufacturer of children's outdoor swing sets, believes that reducing prices would lead to more sales. The client is aware that lower prices would yield less revenue per sale. However, the client is unaware of any other possible negative consequences of dropping prices.
1. Advise the client of some of those possible consequences. Include a description of the psychological issues at play in dropping a brand's price.
2. Identify and evaluate price-adjustment strategies beyond a straightforward reduction in retail price that the client should consider.
Explanation:
1- One of the pieces of advice I could give the customer about lowering the balance sheet price is that this could generate different interpretations for the potential consumer, as there may be a perception that the price reduction of the product occurred due to the loss of product quality in relation to competing products.
2- There are other effective strategies for managing an economic crisis in addition to a direct reduction in the retail price, such as the psychological price strategy, which are the marketing techniques used by salespeople so that consumers respond emotionally to the product, and not a logical way, which generates a perception of greater benefit for the consumer, which can lead to increased sales without having to lower the price of the product.
Alden Co.’s monthly unit sales and total cost data for its operating activities of the past year follow. Management wants to use these data to predict future fixed and variable costs.

Estimate both the variable costs per unit and the total monthly fixed costs using the high-low method. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Alden Co.
Prediction of Future Fixed and Variable Costs, using the high-low method:
a) Determination of the Variable Cost:
7 362,000 $292,624
9 76,400 $67,000
285,600 $225,624
Variable cost per unit = $225,624/285,600 = $0.79
Fixed Costs = $76,000 - (76,400 x $0.79) = $15,644
Explanation:
Month Units Sold Total Cost
1 318,000 $155,500
2 163,000 99,250
3 263,000 203,600
4 203,000 98,000
5 288,000 199,500
6 188,000 110,000
7 362,000 292,624
8 268,000 149,750
9 76,400 67,000
10 148,000 128,625
11 92,000 92,000
12 98,000 83,650
The High-Low Method of determining costs can be relatively accurate if the highest and lowest activity levels represent the overall cost behavior of the company. Inaccurate results will be obtained when the two extreme activity levels are significantly unrepresentative of the dataset. This is exactly the case in this example. If you try to estimate fixed cost, at another activity level, you will get a different result. So the high-low method is not ideal in most cases and its results should not be relied on solely. A better method is to do a regression analysis with the dataset to obtain a more accurate result.

Farming today in the U.S. is __________ productivity compared to a century ago, resulting in there being __________ farmers today than at the turn of the previous century.
Answer: d) much more fewer
Explanation:
Farming in the United States now employs large scale machinery to get the work done faster and more efficiently. As a result productivity has sky rocketed compared to a century ago and the contribution of Agriculture to US GDP is even higher than the entire GDP of some Countries such as Indonesia.
However, due to the large scale mechanisation involved as well as the diversification of the US economy, fewer people are farmers compared to a century ago with only 1.3% of employed Americans working in farms today.

g. California hires workers to repave Highway 101.
h. The federal government sends your grandmother a Social Security check.
1. Consumption
2. Investment
3. Government Purchases
4. Net Exports
Answer and Explanation:
As we know that
Gross domestic product = Consumption + Investment + Government purchase + Net exports
where,
Net exports = Exports - imports
a. Uncle Paul pays a domestic contractor to have his house renovated. = Consumption
b. Aunt Jane buys a new house from a nearby building firm. = Investment
c. You buy chocolate from Belgium in a box. = Consumption & net exports
d. Ford is making a Focus and marketing it to Avis, the car rental company. = Investment
To fix a leak in your bathroom you pay a domestic plumber. = Consumption
e. Ford is selling a Mustang to the Martinez family from its inventory. = Consumption and investment
f. California is hiring people to repave Highway 101. = Government purchase
g. The Federal government is sending a Social Security check to your grandmother. The same is not involved in GDP as it has transfer payment
According to the conditions, Uncle Paul pays a domestic contractor for renovating his home - Consumption. Thus, the correct transactions that affect a-1, b-2, c-1&4, d-2, e-1, f-1&2, g-3, h-No affect.
Utilizing resources to fulfill present needs and desires is referred to as consumption. In contrast, investing is making purchases in order to generate future revenue.
An asset is considered an investment if it is bought or invested in with the intention of increasing financial security and preserving hard-earned income.
Government purchases are things that the federal, state, and municipal governments spend money on.
The difference between a country's exports and imports in dollars over a specific time period is known as net exports.
Therefore, the following transactions with their effect are as follows:
a-1, b-2, c-1&4, d-2, e-1, f-1&2, g-3, h-No affect.
