Answer:
The answer is $209,000
Explanation:
Income = Total revenue minus Total expenses
So for this question:
Net Income will be:
Revenue(Consulting Revenue) minus Total expenses (Employee Salaries Expense plus Interest Expense plus Rent Expense)
Net Income = $476,000 - ($199,000 + $29,000 + $39,000
Net Income = $476,000 - $267,000
= $209,000
You expect to receive annual gifts of $1,000 at the end of Years 1 and 2 and $1,500 at the end of Years 3 and 4. Which of these is the correct present value of multiple annuities formula if the rate is 6 percent
Answer:
Total Present Value = 4280.962
Explanation:
The correct Present Value formulae
PV of annuity formula:
PV = A× 1 -(1+r)^(-n)/r
PV - Present value of annuity'
A- Annual cash flow
r- discount rate per period
n- number of period
First set of cash inflows i.e 1,000 for year 1 and 2
1,000 × ( 1- 1.06^(-2) )/0.06
PV =1,833.39
Second set of cash flows i.e year 3 and 4
Year 3 and Year 4
1,500 × (1- 1.06^(-2) )/0.06 × 1.06^(-2)
= 2,447.569
Total PV = 1,833.39 + 2,447.569 = 4280.962086
Total Present Value = 4280.962

DATA:
Activity Cost Pool Total Cost Total Activity
Assembly $1,398,250 65,800 machine hours
Processing orders $ 69,451 2,520 orders
Inspection $ 184,800 2,400 inspection-hours
Units produced = 920
Machine hours required = 1290
Processing orders required= 61
Inspection hours required = 40
Direct material cost = 57.55
Direct labor cost = 13.56 per unit
Selling price = 123.50
Solution
Sales Revenue (920 ×$123.5) $113,620
LESS: Costs
Direct Materials (920 × $57.55) $52,946
Direct labor (920 ×$13.56) $12,375.2
Assembly (1,398,250/65,800) = 21.25 × 1290= $27412.5
Processing (69,451/2,520) = 27.55 × 61 = $1681.15
Inspection (184,800/2,400) = 77 x 40 = $3080
Total Cost ($97494.65)
Product margin $16,125.15
If merchandise inventory is being valued at cost and the purchase price is steadily falling, which method of costing will yield the largest net income?
Answer:
The answer is LIFO
Explanation:
LIFO is Last in First out. It means the Inventory that was purchased last goes out first.
In periods LIFO, cost of sales reflects the cost of goods purchased recently and the ending Inventory reflects the older goods.
In periods of falling prices, the costs of ending inventory are high, cost of sales are low and the gross profit are high.
Ginger, Inc., has declared a $6.40 per share dividend. Suppose capital gains are not taxed, but dividends are taxed at 10 percent. New IRS regulations require that taxes be withheld at the time the dividend is paid. The company's stock sells for $94.50 per share, and the stock is about to go ex dividend. What do you think the ex-dividend price will be?
Answer:
$88.74
Explanation:
Ginger incorporation has declared a dividend of $6.40 per share
The dividends are taxed at 10%
= 10/100
= 0.1
The company's stock is sold at $94.50 per share
Therefore, the ex-dividend price can be calculated as follows
Ex-dividend price= Current selling price-dividend(1- tax rate)
= $94.50-$6.40(1-0.10)
= $94.50-$6.40(0.9)
= $94.50-$5.76
= $88.74
Hence the ex-dividend price is $88.74
Operating Cash Flow The financial staff of Cairn Communications has identified the following information for the first year of the roll-out of its new proposed service: Projected sales $25 million Operating costs (not including depreciation) $7 million Depreciation $6 million Interest expense $5 million The company faces a 35% tax rate. What is the project's operating cash flow for the first year (t = 1)? Write out your answer completely. For example, 2 million should be entered as 2,000,000.
Answer: $13,800,000
Explanation:
Operating Cashflow for the year = EBIT * (1 - tax rate) + Depreciation.
Earnings before Interest and Tax (EBIT) = Revenue - Operating Costs - Depreciation
= 25 - 7 - 6
= $12 million
Operating Cashflow = 12 * ( 1 - 35%) + 6
= 12 * 65% + 6
= $13.8 million
= $13,800,000
In the MBTI personality model, Disney "imagineers" are more likely to have high _____ scores, while Disney accountants who determine currency transfer equivalencies are more likely to have high _____ scores.
Answer:
In the MBTI personality model, Disney "imagineers" are more likely to have high __INTJ___ scores, while Disney accountants who determine currency transfer equivalencies are more likely to have high __ISTJ___ scores.
Explanation:
1. MBTI personality model is the Myers-Briggs Theory. It was developed by the mother-daughter partnership of Katharine Briggs and Isabel Briggs Myers. At the heart of Myers Briggs theory are four preferences, depicting personality preferences as follows:
1. People and things (Extraversion or "E"), or ideas and information (Introversion or "I").
2. Facts and reality (Sensing or "S"), or possibilities and potential (Intuition or "N").
3. Logic and truth (Thinking or "T"), or values and relationships (Feeling or "F").
4. A lifestyle that is well-structured (Judgment or "J"), or one that goes with the flow (Perception or "P").
These four major classifications mean that one tends to have more of each than the other. This means that there are 16 traits or combinations of traits for a given personality.
2. INTJ personality type: Disney "imagineers" are likely to direct their energies to deal with (Introversion) ideas, information, explanations, and beliefs, as people in research and development at Disney. The information they deal with will be based on ideas, new possibilities, and not obvious things (Intuition) instead of facts and what they know and see. Their decision making will be based on objective logic, using analytic and detailed approaches. Their work will be planned and well-structured to reflect their lifestyle as opposed to flowing with the trend and maintaining flexibility.
3. ISTJ personality class: Disney accountants will bear similar traits like the "imagineers" except that instead of dealing with unknown and not obvious ideas and possibilities like the imagineers, they would prefer their information for processing to be based on clear facts and what they see and know.
Answer:
In the MBTI personality model, Disney "imagineers" are more likely to have high __INTJ___ scores, while Disney accountants who determine currency transfer equivalencies are more likely to have high __ISTJ___ scores.

Meryl is an avid doll collector and has been searching for the Beach Doll to complete her 200-piece collection. There were only 5 Beach Dolls created in the world. Meryl is envious of her neighbor Nancy, who has the first Beach Doll ever created. Nancy refuses to sell the doll because she thinks it will be worth a million dollars someday. While Nancy is on vacation, Meryl hires Alex to steal the doll from Nancy's home. Has an agency relationship been formed?
Answer:
An agency relationship has not been formed
Explanation:
An agency relationship has not been formed because the agreement has an illegal purpose. An agency relationship is a situation where one party calling the principal allows another party called agent to act on his or her behalf.
An agency relationship is only formed if the purpose for it's creation is legal. Meryl hired Alex to steal from Nancy, which is an illegal arrangement. Therefore an agency relationship was not formed.
The bid-ask spread exists because of _______________. A. market inefficiencies B. discontinuities in the markets C. the need for dealers to cover expenses and make a profit D. lack of trading in thin markets
Answer:
C. the need for dealers to cover expenses and make a profit
Explanation:
In the market for securities there are two pricing of securities.
The ask price is the price at which the buyer is willing to purchase a security.
The ask price or the offer price is price at which the seller of a security is willing to sell it. Ask price can be firm or negotiable.
Bid ask spread is the difference between the highest amount a buyer is willing to buy a security and the lowest price at which a seller is willing to sell it.
This spread exists because dealers need to cover expenses and make a profit
New lithographic equipment, acquired at a cost of $800,000 on March 1 at the beginning of a fiscal year, has an estimated useful life of five years and an estimated residual value of $90,000. The manager requested information regarding the effect of alternative methods on the amount of depreciation expense each year. In the first week of the fifth year, on March 4, the equipment was sold for $135,000.
Required:
a. Determine the annual depreciation expense for each of the estimated five years of use, the accumulated depreciation at the end of each year, and the book value of the equipment at the end of each year by (a) the straight-line method and (b) the double-declining-balance method.
b. Journalize the entry to record the sale assuming the manager chose the double-declining-balance method.
c. On January 1, journalize the entry to record the sale in (b), assuming that the equipment was sold for $88,750 instead of $135,000.
Answer:
a. Determine the annual depreciation expense for each of the estimated five years of use, the accumulated depreciation at the end of each year, and the book value of the equipment at the end of each year by:
(a) the straight-line method
depreciation expense per year = ($800,000 - $90,000) / 5 years = $142,000

g For this question, ignore inflation. Suppose Jenny earns $60,000 per year working as a tax analyst. After ten years, she quits her job and pursues a PhD in Art History. For the 5 years she is in school, she gets a teaching stipend of $12,000 per year. For the next 35 years, she is an art director and earns $95,000. If she expects to live for 20 years in retirement. If Jenny doesn’t earn any interest on her savings and wants to perfectly smooth consumption across her life, how much will she consume every year? What might prevent her from perfectly smoothing consumption?
Answer:
If Jenny doesn’t earn any interest on her savings and wants to perfectly smooth consumption across her life, how much will she consume every year?
Jenny's total income during her life = income as tax analyst ($60,000 x 10) + income as PhD student ($12,000 x 5) + income as Art Director (35 x $95,000) = $3,985,000
she generated income during 50 years and expects to live 20 more, so in order to perfectly smooth consumption across her life, she must divide her total life income by 70 years = $3,985,000 / 70 years = $56,928.57 per year
What might prevent her from perfectly smoothing consumption?
First of all, besides inflation, you also earn interest on your savings. That is why 401k and other retirement accounts work so well (the magic of compound interest). Even if inflation and interests didn't exist, you cannot know exactly what you are going to earn in the future and for how many years. In this case, she earned $60,000 for 10 years, but then earned only $12,000 during 5 years. If she really wanted to smooth her consumption, she would have needed to get a loan because her savings during the first 10 years wouldn't be enough.
Hart Enterprises recently paid a dividend of $1.25. It expects to have a dividend growth rate of 15% for 3 years followed by a constant rate of 6% thereafter. The firm’s required return is 10%. What is the firm’s stock value today?
Answer:
Value of stock = $41.95
Explanation:
The price of a stock using the dividend valuation model is the present value of the the future dividend expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.
Year Present Value
1 1.25× 1.15^1 × 1.1^(1-) =1.3068
2 1.25× 1.15^2 × 1.1^(-2) = 1.366
3. 1.25× 1.15^3 × 1.1^(-3)= 1.4283
Present value of Dividend in Year 4 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
Step 1
PV in year 3 terms
= Dividend in year 4× (1.06)/(0.1-0.06)
1.25× 1.15^3 × 1.06/(0.1-0.06)=50.37898438
PV in year 0 terms =
PV in year 3 × 1.1^(-3)
=50.3789 × 1.1^(-3)= 37.8504
Value of stock = 1.3068 + 1.366 + 1.4283 = 41.95
Value of stock = $41.95
A portfolio manager generates a 20% rate of return on a "small cap" portfolio, compared to a 15% rate of return on the benchmark portfolio and a 10% rate of return on the Standard and Poor's 500 index over the same period. The passive rate of return on the portfolio is:
Answer:
15%
Explanation:
A passive portfolio management is an act of running a portfolio to meet the performance and requirements of a benchmark portfolio.
Given that:
A portfolio manager generates = 20% rate of return
Benchmark portfolio = 15% rate of return
Standard and Poor's 500 index = 10% rate of return.
The passive rate of return will be 15%. This is because a passive rate of return is attained by putting money into the right index fund, From the information given; the benchmark index has an 15% rate of return. As such, that is the return any passive investor could attain as a result of putting money in an index fund.
Alice is single and self-employed in 2019. Her net business profit on her Schedule C for the year is $100,000. What is her self-employment tax liability for 2019?
Answer:
$15,300
Explanation:
Remember, under the FICA Tax rate for 2019, the charge is 15.3% on first $132,900 of net income plus 2.9% on the net income in excess of $132,900. However, Alice net income is only about $100,000.
So, her Self employment tax liability =100,000 x 15.3% = $15,300 (since her net income doesn't exceed $132,900 we need not apply the 2.9% charge)
Fremont Enterprises has an expected return of 18 % and Laurelhurst News has an expected return of 21 %. If you put 43 % of your portfolio in Laurelhurst and 57 % in Fremont, what is the expected return of your portfolio? g
Answer: 19.29%
Explanation:
From the question, Fremont Enterprises has an expected return of 18% and 57% of the portfolio is put in Fremont. The portfolio return of Fremont will be the expected return multiplied by the weight. This will be:
= 18% × 57%
= 18 × 0.57
= 10.26%
We are also told that Laurelhurst News has an expected return of 21% and that 43% of the portfolio is put in Laurelhurst News. The portfolio return here will be the expected return multiplied by the weight. This will be:
= 21% × 43%
= 21% × 0.43
= 9.03%
The the expected return of the portfolio will now be:
= 10.26% + 9.03%
= 19.29%

Explanation:
Workers at Majestic Manufacturing have won the right to unionize, but management is unwilling to participate in the collective bargaining process and bargain in "good faith." This is a direct violation of the _______Act.
Answer: National Labor Relations Act
Explanation:
Passed in 1935, this is a fundamental act in United States Labor law that grants private sector employees the right to join Unions and engage with employers in Collective Bargaining to better their employment conditions. This act even gave the employees the right to strike if their demands are not meant.
Most relevant is that in Section 8 of the Act, it is made clear that when an Employer refuses to engage in Collective Bargaining with the representative of their employees, that this is an unfair labor practice and under the Act, is considered to be illegal.

Suppose we are looking at a cash flow statement constructed using the INDIRECT method. We see a NEGATIVE adjustment of $5000 related to Accounts Payable. Which of the following are correct interpretations of this?a. Depreciation provided cash of $1000 b. The firm sold long-term assets for $1000 c. The firm invested $1000 of cash in long-term assets d. Income was lower by $1000 because of Depreciation expense
Answer:
It implies that the firm paid $5,000 to its supplier this accounting period (e.g. year) out of the amount the firm is owing the supplier.
Note: The correct answer is as stated above it is not included in the option. Kindly confirm the options again from your teacher.
Explanation:
Accounts payable refers to the amount of money a firm is owing its suppliers.
Account payable is one of the component of the current liabilities in the balance sheet, and non-cash current liability item that is adjusted for in the cash flow statement to arrive at net cash from operating activities when an indirect method is being used.
Since accounts payable is the amount of money a firm is owing its suppliers, a negative a NEGATIVE adjustment to its implies that company has paid its supplier the negative amount in the accounting period.
Therefore, a NEGATIVE adjustment of $5000 related to Accounts Payable implies that the firm paid $5,000 to its supplier this accounting period (e.g. year) out of the amount the firm is owing the supplier.
If returns of S&P 500 stocks are normally distributed, what range of returns would you expect to see 95% of the time? Base your answer on the information below. 19.72%
Answer: -29.75% to 52.33%
Explanation:
Given the Average return and the standard deviation, the range that is to be expected 95% of the time can be calculated by;
Upper bound = Average + (2 * standard deviation)
Lower Bound = Average - (2 * standard deviation)
Upper bound = 11.29% + (2 * 20.52%)
= 11.29% + 41.04%
= 52.33%
Lower bound = 11.29% - (2 * 20.52%)
= 11.29% - 41.04%
= -29.75%
The range is, -29.75% to 52.33%
The beta of an all-equity firm is 1.4. Suppose the firm changes its capital structure to 40 percent debt and 60 percent equity. What is the equity beta of the levered firm
Answer:
1.59
Explanation:
The formula required to calculate the equity beta of the levered beta is given below:
Levered Beta=Unlevered Beta*((1+(1-tax rate)*(debt/equity))
unlevered bera=1.4
tax rate (assume it is 30%) is 0.30
debt is 40% or 0.40
equity is 60% or 0.60
Levered Beta=1.4((1+(1-0.30)*(0.40/0.60))
levered Beta=1.4*(1+0.7)*0.666666667
levered beta=1.4*1.133333334
levered beta= 1.59
You can recompute using the missing actual tax rate
