Answer: $214000
Explanation:
The amount of goodwill that should be recognized by Carla Vista Company when recording the purchase of Sandhill Company will go thus:
Book value of net assets = $1923000
Add: Excess fair value of tangible asset = $190500
Add: Excess fair value of intangible assets = $142500
Fair value of net assets = $1923000 + $190500 + $142500 = $2256000
Therefore, Goodwill will be:
=Cash paid for purchase - Fair value of net assets
= $2470000 - $2256000
= $214000
Todd Silver is the purchasing agent for Moore Co. One of his suppliers, Gem Co. offers Todd a free vacation to France if he buys at least 75% of Moore's supplies from Gem Co. Todd, who was angry because Moore Co. has not given him a raise in over a year, is considering the offer. Write your recommendation to Todd.
Answer:
Ethically the offer made by Gem Co. is not suitable because Todd will buy 75% of the Moore Co. supplies from Gem Co. which could be of low quality and or expensive because if Todd accepts the offer Gem Co. would know that Todd will purchase 75% of supplies from Gem Co. and not from any other supplier so the quality and cost can be varied easily and no complaint will be made by Todd, but this can cause Todd to lose his job at Moore Co. and ethically breaching his duties of professional behavior and due care.

The estimated beta for RDG is 0.74. The risk free rate of return is 4 percent and the Equity Risk Premium is 5 percent. What is the required rate of return for RDG using the CAPM
Answer:
7.7%
Explanation:
Given :
Risk free rate of return = 4%
Risk premium = 5%
Estimated beta = 0.7
Using the CAPM relation :
The expected return = Risk free rate + (Risk premium * Estimated Beta)
Expected Return = 4% + (5% * 0.74)
Expected Return = 4% + 3.7%
Expected Return = 7.7%

Total materials variance $enter a dollar amount select an option Materials price variance $enter a dollar amount select an option Materials quantity variance $enter a dollar amount select an option Total labor variance $enter a dollar amount select an option Labor price variance $enter a dollar amount select an option Labor quantity variance
Answer:
Materials price variance $5,100 F
Materials quantity variance $4,075 U
Total labor variance $2,500 U
Labor price variance $620 F
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Actual Standard
Labor rate per hour $16 $15.50
Material price per ton $160 $163
Labor hours 5,000 5,040
Materials 1,700 1,675
a) Total price variance for materials = Standard price per ton - Actual price per ton * Actual materials
= $163 - $160 * 1,700
= $5,100 F
b) Total quantity variance for materials = Standard quantity - Actual quantity * Standard price
= 1,675 - 1,700 * $163
= 25 * $163
= $4,075 U
c) Total price variance for labor = Standard rate per hour - Actual rate per hour * Actual labor hours
= $15.50 - $16 * 5,000
= -$0.50 * 5,000
= $2,500 U
d) Total quantity variance for labor = Standard labor hours - Actual labor hours * Standard rate
= 5,040 - 5,000 * $15.50

Auerbach Inc. issued 8% bonds on October 1, 2021. The bonds have a maturity date of September 30, 2031 and a face value of $225 million. The bonds pay interest each March 31 and September 30, beginning March 31, 2022. The effective interest rate established by the market was 10%. Assuming that Auerbach issued the bonds for $255,366,000, what would the company report for its net bond liability balance at December 31, 2021, rounded up to the nearest thousand?
Answer:
Auerbach Inc.
For its net bond liability balance at December 31, 2021, the company would report:
= $253,482 (in thousands).
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Face value of bonds = $225,000,000
Price of bonds = $255,366,000
Bonds premiums = $30,366,000 ($255,366,000 - $225,000,000)
Maturity date = September 30, 2031
Maturity period = 10 years
Coupon interest rate = 8%
Effective interest rate = 10%
Payment of interest = Semiannually on March 31 and September 30:
December 31, 2021:
Interest expense = $6,384,150 ($255,366,000 * 10% * 3/12)
Cash payment = $4,500,000 ($225,000,000 * 8% * 3/12)
Premium amortization = $1,884,150
Fair value of bonds payable = $253,481,850 ($255,366,000 - $1,884,150)
The CFO of the company believes that an appropriate annual interest rate on this investment is 9%. What is the present value of this uneven cash flow
Answer:
$1,685,335
Explanation:
Hi, your question is incomplete, I have searched for the full question online and I have uploaded it as an image below.
Uneven cash flows are cash flows that are received in uneven amounts and possibly uneven periods as well.
We can simply use the CFj function of a financial calculator to determine the present value of uneven cash flows as follows :
$0 CF 0
$250,000 CF 1
$20,000 CF 2
$330,000 CF 3
$450,000 CF 4
$550,000 CF 5
$375, 000 CF 6
i/yr = 4 %
Shift NPV gives $1,685,335
Therefore,
The present value of this uneven cash flow is $1,685,335
A company with $60,000 in current assets and $35,000 in current liabilities pays a $1,000 current liability. As a result of this transaction, the current ratio and working capital will
Answer:
Increase and remain the same respectively
Explanation:
Given the above information, we know that current ratio is computed as;
Current ratio = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities
Current ratio = $60,000 ÷ $34,000
Current ratio = 1: 1.76
Working capital is computed as;
= Current asset - Current liabilities
= $60,000 - $34,000
= $26,000
As a result of the above, the current ratio increased because of the reduction in the current liabilities value while the working capital remains the same.

Required:
Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double-declining-balance method.
Answer:
1. $3375
$3375
2. $4347
$3456
3 $7300
$5475
Explanation:
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
( $29,200 - $2,200,) / 8 = $3375
depreciation expense each year is $3375
Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset
Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2/8 = 0.25
2020 = 0.25 x 29200 = 7300
2021 = 0.25x( 29200 - 7300)
Activity method based on output = (output produced that year / total output of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

Use solver to answer the following question: A corrupt shipping concern wishes to maximize the revenue they make from an analytics-bereft manufacturing concern, which has 4 factories and 3 warehouses. Factory 1 supplies 1000 units per week and is charged $5, $3, and $4 to ship each unit to Warehouses 1, 2, and 3 respectively. Factory 2 supplies 1200 units each week and is charged $4, $3, and $3 to ship to Warehouses 1, 2, and 3. Factory 3 supplies 1500 units and is charged $6, $2, and $5 to ship to the three warehouses. Factory 4 supplies 1800 units and is charged $6, $2, and $4.

The market price of a security is $46. Its expected rate of return is 10%. The risk-free rate is 4%, and the market risk premium is 9%. What will the market price of the security be if its beta doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)
Answer:
The new Market price =$28.75
Explanation:
According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model CAPM, we have that
Expected return= risk free rate+(beta X market risk premium)
10=4+ beta x 9
= 10- 4 = beta x 9
beta =6 /9 =0.666
IF beta doubles with other variables constant
Expected return= risk free rate+(betaXmarket risk premium)
Beta= 0.666 x2 =1.3333
Expected return = 4+ 1.333 x 9
Expected return 4+ 12=16%
Price = Perpertual Dividend /Expected return
where Current Share price =$46
Dividend = $46 x 10%=4.6
The new Market price = Perpetual dividend/New Required return
= 4.6/16% =$28.75
So the new Market price =$28.75

In the Marigold, maintenance costs are a mixed cost. At the low level of activity (40 direct labor hours), maintenance costs are $300. At the high level of activity (300 direct labor hours), maintenance costs are $1650. Using the high-low method, what is the variable maintenance cost per unit and the total fixed maintenance cost
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the variable and fixed costs, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (1,650 - 300) / (300 - 40)
Variable cost per unit= $5.1923
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 1,650 - (5.1923*300)
Fixed costs= $92.31
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 300 - (5.1923*40)
Fixed costs= $92.31

A liquidity trap is a situation in which: _________
a. using expansionary monetary policy is not effective because, the nominal interest rate is almost zero.
b. lenders are trapped by large loans with declining rates of return. using expansionary monetary policy is not effective, because the real interest rate is negative.
c. aggregate demand falls, because consumers do not have enough liquidity to consume.
d. using expansionary fiscal policy is not effective because, the budget is in a deficit.
In monetary policy, reference to a zero bound on interest rates means that the central bank can no longer reduce the interest rate to encourage economic growth. As the interest rate approached the zero bound, the effectiveness of monetary policy as a tool was assumed to be reduced.
