Answer:
The correct answer is the option A: the employees have engaged in an unfair labor practice strike.
Explanation:
To begin with, due to the fact that the union was already establishing the area for the negotiation and they might have planeed obviously to keep trying to increase the situation in their favour then the action taken by the employees was a bit hurry and was obvious that was not thought very well with calm minds and therefore that they engaged in an unfair labor practice strike because they had to be patience and wait for the union to improve the situation for them, because their are the representatives and if the company sees that the workers do not obey to the representatives then the union will lose negotiation power and the situation will get worse for them.
A pollution haven is A. unattractive for multinational investment because of the ambient pollution. B. a location with weak environmental rules that attracts manufacturing companies due to decreased costs. C. a place that has very low worker wages. D. a place where people actually like pollution and view it as a positive externality.
Answer:
B. a location with weak environmental rules that attracts manufacturing companies due to decreased costs.
Explanation:
A pollution haven is when companies establish factories or offices abroad in countries in which they have lower costs and have access to all the resources they need. Also, these locations tend to be in developing nations in which the environmental standards tend to be lower than the ones in developed nations. According to this, the answer is that a pollution haven is a location with weak environmental rules that attracts manufacturing companies due to decreased costs.
The other options are not right because a pollution haven is attractive for multinational investment because of the lower cost and it is not related to ambient pollution. Also, a pollution haven has low wages but it is not the only thing that defines it and it is not a place where people like pollution.
Nelly is creating an executive committee in a large corporation in order to decide how to open a new subsidiary. The committee has representation from the sales, information technology, general management, and warehouse departments. She feels unsure whether to include someone from the accounting department because she thinks that accountants focus only on taxes and do not have much management expertise. What would you suggest

Problem 5-40 Loan Payments (LG5-9) You wish to buy a $10,800 dining room set. The furniture store offers you a 3-year loan with an APR of 10.8 percent. What are the monthly payments
Answer:
Required monthly payments = $352.556
Explanation:
Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.
The monthly installment is computed as follows:
Monthly installment= Loan amount/annuity factor
Loan amount; 10,800
Annuity factor = (1 - (1+r)^(-n))/r
r -monthly rate of interest, n- number of months
r- 10.8%/12 = 0.9 % = 0.009, n = 3 × 12 = 36
Annuity factor = ( 1- (1+0.009)^(-36))/0.009 =30.6334
Monthly installment = Loan amount /annuity factor
= 10,800/30.6334= 352.556
Required monthly payments = $352.556

A complaint of sexual harassment by a part-time worker in a hardware business was upheld when the Tribunal found that the employer had failed to take sufficient action in relation to the employee's report of inappropriate behaviour. The alleged sexual harassment included kissing, touching her breasts and leg, persistent requests to have a drink outside work hours despite an ongoing refusal, asking for cuddles, telephoning her at home and making repeated unsolicited sexual remarks. Based on any four ethical theories, explain how these acts constitute unethical behaviours at the workplace
Answer:
The ethical theory of rights is being violated in this case.Explanation:
As we know sexual harassment is a violation against an individual's civil rights, the ethical theory of rights is being violated in this case. The part-time worker who is being harassed by another employee is being violated of her right to a safe workplace under the civil rights.
The ethical theory of rights provides that rights designed and formulated by the society and the government should be upheld with commitment and priority. They are the basic human rights that guarantees equal and dignified life for all.
If any unethical behaviors at the workplace such as sexual harassment, abuse, threat, etc, occurs, it is a direct violation to the basic human rights of an individual.
A stock with a beta of 2.0 has an expected rate of return of 21%. If the market return this year turns out to be 8 percentage points below expectations, what is your best guess as to the rate of return on the stock
Answer:
The answer is 5%
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
A stock with a beta =2.0
The expected rate of return =21%
Market return turnout = 8%
Now,
Rf = risk free return
Rp = risk premium =Rm -Rf
β = 2.0
Thus
The expected return R = Rf +β *Rp
= Rf +β * (Rm -Rf)
R = Rf +2.0 (Rm -Rf)
=Rf + 2 times risk premium
So,
The market turns by 8%
R = Rf +2.0 (Rm -8%-Rf)
=Rf + 2 Rm-16%-2Rf
Then
The expected return is reduced by 16%
Hence,
21% -16% =5%
Therefore the expected rate of return on the stock is 5%
Eberley Corporation's cost formula for its manufacturing overhead is $25,700 per month plus $10 per machine-hour. For the month of July, the company planned for activity of 5,900 machine-hours, but the actual level of activity was 5,920 machine-hours. The actual manufacturing overhead for the month was $86,800. The manufacturing overhead in the planning budget for July would be closest to:
Answer:
$84,700
Explanation:
The computation of manufacturing overhead in the planning budget for July is shown below:-
Manufacturing overhead in the planning budget = Manufacturing overhead per month + Budgeted hours × Budgeted rate
= $25,700 + 5,900 × $10
= $25,700 + $59,000
= $84,700
Therefore for computing the manufacturing overhead in the planning budget for July we simply applied the above formula.
Consider two ways of commuting in a crowded city: taking public transportation, such as subway and buses, or driving your own car.
A person who chooses to take public transportation in a crowded city imposes a NEGATIVE OR POSITIVE externality on drivers. A policy implication of this result is a SUBSIDY FOR OR TAX ON those who take public transportation.
Persons who choose to drive their own cars to get around in a crowded city impose a NEGATIVE OR POSITIVE externality on other drivers. A policy implication of this result is a TAX ON OR SUBSIDY FOR those who drive their own cars.
Answer: positive; subsidy for; negative; tax on.
Explanation:
A positive externality occurs when the activities of an economic agent is of benefit to another third party that is not part of the activity or transaction while negative externality is the cost an individual bears due to the market activities of another individual or firm. It should be noted that the third parties didn't plan to incur the costs or benefits mentioned above.
Therefore, an individual who chooses to take public transportation in a crowded city imposes a positive externality on drivers. We are told that the city is overcrowded, therefore using public transportation means there will be lesser vehicles on the road and this will be beneficial to the drivers and there may be subsidy for those who take public transportation.
The people who choose to drive their own cars to get around in a crowded city impose a negative externality because there will be traffic congestion and health hazards and a tax can be imposed on them.
Your aunt is about to retire, and she wants to sell some of her stock and buy an annuity that will provide her with income of $50,000 per year for 30 years, beginning a year from today. The going rate on such annuities is 7.25%. How much would it cost her to buy such an annuity today
Answer:
$605,183.13
Explanation:
For computing the cost her to buy an annuity today we need to find out the present value by applying the PV formula i.e shown in the attachment
Provided that,
Future value = $0
Rate of interest = 7.25%
NPER = 30 years
PMT = $50,000
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the present value is $605,183.13
7. Identifying costs of inflation Bob manages a grocery store in a country experiencing a high rate of inflation. He is paid in cash twice per month. On payday, he immediately goes out and buys all the goods he will need over the next two weeks in order to prevent the money in his wallet from losing value. What he can't spend, he converts into a more stable foreign currency for a steep fee. This is an example of the of inflation.
Answer:
Shoe-leather Costs.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Bob manages a grocery store in a country experiencing a high rate of inflation. He is paid in cash twice per month. On payday, he immediately goes out and buys all the goods he will need over the next two weeks in order to prevent the money in his wallet from losing value.
What he can't spend, he converts into a more stable foreign currency for a steep fee. This is an example of the Shoes-leather costs of inflation.
A Shoe-leather costs refers to the costs of time, energy and effort people expend to mitigate the effect of high inflation on the depreciative purchasing power of money by frequently visiting depository financial institutions in order to minimize inflation tax they pay on holding cash.
Metaphorically, it ultimately implies that in order to protect the value of money or assets, some people wear out the sole of their shoes by going to financial institutions more frequently to make deposits.
Hence, Bob is practicing a shoe-leather cost of inflation so as to reduce the nominal interest rates.
You find a zero coupon bond with a par value of $10,000 and 29 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 5.1 percent. Assume semiannual compounding periods. What is the price of the bond
Answer:
The price of the bond is $2,321.30
Explanation:
In this question, we are concerned with calculating the price of the bond.
We can calculate this mathematically by using the formula below;
Price of bond = P ÷ (1 + r/n)^nt
where P = par value of coupon bond = 10,000
r is the interest rate = 5.1% = 5.1/100 = 0.051
n = number of times yield to maturity is compounded. Since it is semi-annually, it means it is twice per year and thus, n = 2
t is the number of years to maturity = 29 years
Plugging these values into the equation above, we have
Price of bond = 10,000 ÷ (1 + 0.051/2)^(2)(29)
Price of bond = 10,000 ÷ (1.0255)^58
Price of bond = $2,321.30
To advertise or not to advertise Suppose that Creamland and Dairy King are the only two firms that sell ice cream. The following payoff matrix shows the profit (in millions of dollars) each company will earn depending on whether or not it advertises:
Dairy King
Advertise Doesn't Advertise
Creamland Advertise 10,10 18, 2
Doesn't Advertise 2,18 11,11
For example, the upper right cell shows that if Creamland advertises and Dairy King doesn't advertise, Creamland will make a profit of $18 million, and Dairy King will make a profit of $2 million. Assume this is a simultaneous game and that Creamland and Dairy King are both profit-maximizing firms.
a. If Creamland decides to advertise, it will earn a profit of $ _______ million if Dairy King advertises and a profit of $_______ million if Dairy King not advertise.
b. If Creamland decides not to advertise, it will earn a profit of________ million if Dairy King advertises and a profit of______ $ million if Dairy King does not advertise.
Suppose that both firms start off not advertising. If the firms act independently, what strategies will they end up choosing?
a. Creamland will choose not to advertise and Dairy King will choose to advertise.
b. Both firms will choose not to advertise.
c. Both firms will choose to advertise.
d. Creamland will choose to advertise and Dairy King will choose not to advertise.
Answer:
a. 10, 18
b. 2, 11
c. Both firms will choose to advertise.
Explanation:
Interpreting the payoff matrix for all possible cases:
Both Advertise:
Dairy King profit = 10
Creamland profit = 10
Neither Advertise:
Dairy King profit = 11
Creamland profit = 11
Only Dairy King advertises:
Dairy King profit = 18
Creamland profit = 2
Only Creamland advertises:
Dairy King profit = 2
Creamland profit = 18.
Filling in the blanks:
a. If Creamland decides to advertise, it will earn a profit of $10 million if Dairy King advertises and a profit of $18 million if Dairy King not advertise.
b. If Creamland decides not to advertise, it will earn a profit of $2 million if Dairy King advertises and a profit of $11 million if Dairy King does not advertise.
For both firms, if they choose not to advertise and the other firm advertises, they will have a much lower profit than their competitors. Therefore, the dominant strategy for either firm is to advertise since it will at least keep them even with their competitor (if both advertise).
The answer is c. Both firms will choose to advertise.
Imaging Inc., a developer of radiology equipment, has stock outstanding as follows: 20,000 shares of cumulative preferred 4% stock, $140 par, and 67,000 shares of $10 par common. During its first four years of operations, the following amounts were distributed as dividends: first year, $75,000; second year, $159,000; third year, $190,300; fourth year, $205,130.
Requried:
Compute the dividends per share on each class of stock for each of the four years.
Answer:
Dividend per Share:
1st Year
Preferred dividend per share = $3.75
Common dividend per share = $0
2nd Year
Preferred dividend per share = $7.45
Common dividend per share = $0.149
3rd Year
Preferred dividend per share = $5.6
Common dividend per share = $1.169
4th Year
Preferred dividend per share = $5.6
Common dividend per share = $1.39
Explanation:
The cumulative preferred stock is the stock which accumulates or accrues dividends in case the dividends are not paid or partially paid in a particular year. These accumulated dividends or dividends in arrears are paid whenever the company declares dividends next time.
Preferred dividend per year = 20000 * 140 * 0.04 = $112000
1st year
Preferred dividend = 75000
Preferred dividend per share = 75000 / 20000 = $3.75 per share
Accumulated preferred dividends = 112000 - 75000 = $37000
Common dividend = 0
Common dividend per share = 0
2nd year
Preferred dividend = 37000 + 112000
Preferred dividend per share = 149000 / 20000 = $7.45 per share
Common dividend = 10000
Common dividend per share = 10000 / 67000 = $0.149 per share
3rd year
Preferred dividend = 112000
Preferred dividend per share = 112000 / 20000 = $5.6 per share
Common dividend = 78300
Common dividend per share = 78300 / 67000 = $1.169 per share
4th year
Preferred dividend = 112000
Preferred dividend per share = 112000 / 20000 = $5.6 per share
Common dividend = 93130
Common dividend per share = 93130 / 67000 = $1.39 per share
QUESTION 12 For a strategic alliance, firms should seek partners that are: a. known for being opportunistic. b. radically different when it comes to strategic goals. c. willing to share costs and risks of new-product development. d. different in terms of vision and agendas. e. similar when it comes to capabilities.
Answer:
c. willing to share costs and risks of new-product development.
Explanation:
A strategic alliance is when two companies come together to carry out a project that benefits both companies while both companies still retain their independence.
If strategic alliance is carried out with a company that is opportunistic, the company might take advantage of the other company or take certain actions that would not benefit the other company.
strategic alliance has to be mutually beneficial to both companies, so, strategic goals and visions have to align.
Capabilities don't have to be the same for a strategic alliance.

George’s Car Repair Shop buys parts from a local parts distributor. The distributor delivers the parts promptly under terms stated on the invoice: 3/15 net 30. George has always paid the bill within 30 days and has never really worried about these invoice terms. Which of the following statements is true of this scenario?
a. George should not react to these payment terms because they area tactic used by many distributors to get customers to pay early, with little or no benefitto George.
b. These terms mean that the payment is due in 30 days, but that as long as he is not more than 15 days late, he can avoid the 3% late penalty. Thus, George could actually delay payment until the 45th day without incurring a penalty.
c. He is smart to wait until the 30th day before making payment because this gives him the use of cash for the maximum possible amount of time.
d. If possible, it is smart to pay the bill within 15 days after receipt because then he will receive a 3% discount. If he does a lot of business with this firm, this will result in a sizeable savings for George by year’s end.
Answer:
d. If possible, it is smart to pay the bill within 15 days after receipt because then he will receive a 3% discount. If he does a lot of business with this firm, this will result in a sizeable savings for George by year’s end.
Explanation:
In the given instance the supplier of parts to George uses invoice 3%/15 net 30. This means if payment for parts is made within 15 days George will get a discount of 3%, if not the total amount of the parts is to be repayed within 30 days.
The best option for George will be to reduce his repayment period from 30 days to 15 days or less.
This way he will get 3% discount on sales and if he does a lot of business with the spare parts dealer, he will save a large sum of money
Rachelle transfers property with a tax basis of $800 and a fair market value of $960 to a corporation in exchange for stock with a fair market value of $765 and $42 in cash in a transaction that qualifies for deferral under section 351. The corporation assumed a liability of $153 on the property transferred. What is the corporation's tax basis in the property received in the exchange
Answer:
$842
Explanation:
The computation of corporation's tax basis in the property received in the exchange is shown below:-
corporation's tax basis = Fair market value + Transaction
= $800 + $42
= $842
Therefore, The corporation's tax basis should be equivalent to the shareholder's tax basis as the property is transferred for $800 (a substituted basis) and add gain recognized of $42. And If the corporation sells the property for $960, the recognized gain would be $52.
A company had beginning inventory... A company had beginning inventory of 10 units at a cost of $20 each on March 1. On March 2, it purchased 10 units at $22 each. On March 6 it purchased 6 units at $25 each. On March 8, it sold 22 units for $54 each. Using the FIFO perpetual inventory method, what was the cost of the 22 units sold
Answer:
COGS= $470
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= 10 units for $20 each
On March 2, it purchased 10 units at $22 each.
On March 6 it purchased 6 units at $25 each.
On March 8, it sold 22 units for $54 each.
We need to determine the cost of goods sold for the 22 units under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method. Using this method, we need to use the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory.
COGS= 10*20 + 10*22 + 2*25= $470

8. Problems and Applications Q8 The city government is considering two tax proposals: • A lump-sum tax of $300 on each producer of hamburgers. • A tax of $1 per burger, paid by producers of hamburgers. Which of the following statements is true as a result of the lump-sum tax? Check all that apply. Average fixed cost will increase. Average variable cost will remain unchanged. Average total cost will increase. Marginal cost will increase. Which of the following statements is true as a result of the per-burger tax? Check all that apply. Average fixed cost will remain unchanged. Average total cost will increase. Average variable cost will increase. Marginal cost will remain unchanged.
Answer:
Which of the following statements is true as a result of the lump-sum tax?
Average fixed cost will increase.
Average total cost will increase.
The lump-sum tax of $300 is a one time payment that does not depend on the amount of output, for this reason, it is a fixed cost that is spread over the total quantity of burgers that are produced, and that also affect average total cost.
Which of the following statements is true as a result of the per-burger tax?
Average fixed cost will remain unchanged.
Average total cost will increase.
Average variable cost will increase.
The per-burger tax depends on the quanityt of burgers produced, therefore, it is another variable cost. It affects average total cost, and average variable cost, while average fixed cost remains unchaged precisely because it is not a fixed cost.
The average cost of production is computed by dividing the number cost (TC) by the output produced (TO) (Q). When we say "per unit cost of production," we mean that all fixed and variable costs are taken into account when calculating the average cost.
As a result, it's also known as Per Unit Total Cost.
The answers to the above questions are:
1) The $300 lump-sum tax is a one-time contribution that is not based on the amount of output; as a result, it is a fixed cost that is distributed across the total quantity of burgers produced, affecting the average total cost.
So, Option A and C are correct.
2) The per-burger tax is a variable expense that is determined by the number of burgers consumed. It has an effect on average total cost and average variable cost, but it has no effect on average fixed cost because it is not a fixed cost.
So, Option A, B, and C are correct.

You purchase one MMM July 129 call contract (equaling 100 shares) for a premium of $21. You hold the option until the expiration date, when MMM stock sells for $141 per share. You will realize a ______ on the investment.
Answer:
There is loss of $900 on investment.
Explanation:
The purchase of 1 MMM July 129 call contract at premium = $21
Since it is given that it is held unit the expiration date.
The selling price of MMM stock = $141 per share.
Total number of shares = 100
Total amount paid for share (purchase price) = 129 + 21 = $150
Loss or profit = Market price on expiration date- purchase price
=141-150
= - 9
Total loss = 9 × 100
=900 loss
Tom Company incurs overhead costs each year in its three main departments, setup ($70,000), machining ($34,000), and packing ($56,000). Information about the company's two products is as follows:
Product A1 Product B1 Total
Number of setups 7 33 40
Machining hours 2,800 2,200 5,000
Orders packed 280 220 500
Number of products manufactured 560 440 1,000
If machining hours are used as a base under traditional costing, how much overhead is assigned to Product A1?
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $89,600
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Tom Company incurs overhead costs each year in its three main departments, setup ($70,000), machining ($34,000), and packing ($56,000).
Product A1 Product B1 Total
Number of setups 7 33 40
Machining hours 2,800 2,200 5,000
Orders packed 280 220 500
Number of products manufactured 560 440 1,000
Under the traditional costing system, the company applies overhead based on a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate.
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 160,000/ 5,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $32 per machine hour
Now, we can apply overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 32*2,800= $89,600

At the end of 2018, we have a credit balance of $10,000 in allowance for doubtful accounts before the adjusting entry for bad debts expense. After analyzing the accounts in the accounts receivable using the aging of receivables method, the company's management estimates that uncollectible accounts will be $30,000. What will be the amount of bad debts expense reported on the income statement
Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
From the question above
At the end of 2018, there was a credit balance of $10,000 in allowance for the doubtful accounts.
After proper screening of the account receivable through the use of a method known as 'aging of receivables method' the management of the company estimated that the uncollectible accounts will be $30,000
Therefore, the amount of bad debts expense recorded on the income statement can be calculated as follows
= $30,000-$10,000
= $20,000
Hence the amount of bad debts expense that was recorded on the income statement is $20,000
In addition to the positive welfare effects that free trade has on an economy, there are a variety of other benefits of international trade. Consider the following scenario: Without free trade, Sapphira has market power as a local producer. Once free trade is implemented in the local economy, Sapphira is no longer able to raise its prices above competitive levels. The previous scenario represents which of the following benefits of free trade?A. An enhanced flow of ideas B. Increased competition C. Lower costs through economies of scale D. Increased variety of goods
Answer:
B. Increased competition
Explanation:
Free trade is an economic policy where there are no restrictions to imports or export of goods and services.
Before the free trade, Sapphira had market power. She could set the price of her products. She would probably set her prices high enough to maximise profits.
Due to free trade which introduces more products to the market, sapphira is no longer able to set her prices as high as she used to. If her price is too high, consumers would not purchase her products.
This is an example of increased competition.

Big Bad Wolf Masonry Co. agreed to build a brick home for Johnny Little Pig, the Third by November 1. Big Bad Wolf and Johnny Pig could not predict Pig's losses of Big Bad Wolf failed to complete the house on time. They estimated that Johnny Pig would lose $150 in storage and rental fees per day if the building was not completed on time. The contract contained a liquidated damage clause. The clause required Big Bad Wolf to pay liquidated damages of $150 per day if the work was completed late. Big Bad Wolf finished the home twelve days late. Johnny Pig actually lost $1,000 because of the breach. Is the liquidated damage amount stated in the contract between Big Bad Wolf Masonry and Johnny Pig a valid or invalid liquidated damage clause and why
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).
Holt Enterprises recently paid a dividend, D0, of $3.75. It expects to have nonconstant growth of 23% for 2 years followed by a constant rate of 6% thereafter. The firm's required return is 9%.
a. How far away is the horizon date?
I. The terminal, or horizon, date is Year 0 since the value of a common stock is the present value of all future expected dividends at time zero.
II. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes nonconstant. This occurs at time zero.
III. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the beginning of Year 2.
IV. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the end of Year 2.
V. The terminal, or horizon, date is infinity since common stocks do not have a maturity date.
b. What is the firm's horizon, or continuing, value? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
c. What is the firm's intrinsic value today, P0? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
Answer:
a. How far away is the horizon date?
IV. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the end of Year 2.
b. What is the firm's horizon, or continuing, value? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
to determine the horizon value we can use the Gordon growth formula:
stock price = future dividend / (required rate of return - constant growth rate)
Div₀ = $3.75
Div₁ = $4.6125
Div₂ = $5.673375
Div₃ = $6.97825125
since the terminal value is calculated for year 2, we must use Div₃ in our calculations:
stock price = $6.97825125 / (9% - 6%) = $232.61
c. What is the firm's intrinsic value today, P0? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
we have to calculate the present value of:
P₀ = $4.6125/1.09 + $5.673375/1.09² + $232.608375/1.09² = $4.2317 + $4.7752 + $195.7818 = $204.7887 ≈ $204.79
