Answer:
Ordinary annuities:
$19,642.08
$3,862.34
$2400
Annuities due:
$20,427.76
$3,939.58
$2400
Explanation:
The future values of the annuities can be computed using excel future value formula:
=fv(rate,nper,-pmt,pv,type)
rate is the interest rate
nper is the period of investment stated in years
pmt is the regular investment amount
pv is present worth of each investment which is unknown and taken as zero
type could either be 0 or 1
1 is for annuity due
0 is for ordinary annuity
Ordinary annuities:
$900 per year for 16 years at 4%
=fv(4%,16,-900,0,0)=$19,642.08
$450 per year for 8 years at 2%
=fv(2%,8,-450,0,0)=$3,862.34
$300 per year for 8 years at 0%
=fv(0%,8,-300,0,0)=$2400
annuities due:
$900 per year for 16 years at 4%
=fv(4%,16,-900,0,1)=$20,427.76
$450 per year for 8 years at 2%
=fv(2%,8,-450,0,1)=$3,939.58
$300 per year for 8 years at 0%
=fv(0%,8,-300,0,1)=$2400
Answer the question based on the following supply and demand schedules in units per week for a product. Price Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied $60 100 400 50 140 340 40 180 280 30 220 220 20 260 160 10 300 100 If the government introduced a guaranteed price floor of $40 and agreed to purchase surplus output, then the government's total support payments to producers would be
Answer:
$4,000
Explanation:
For computation of the government's total support payments to producers first we need to find out the surplus units which is shown below:
Floor price = $40
[tex]Q_d = 180[/tex]
[tex]Q_s = 280[/tex]
[tex]Surplus\ units[/tex] = [tex]Q_s - Q_d[/tex]
= 280 - 180
= 100
Therefore,
The Total support payments to producer = Price floor × Surplus units
= $40 × 100
= $4,000
So, for determining the total support payment to producer we simply multiply the price floor with surplus units.
Suppose the market for pizzas is unregulated. That is, pizza prices are free to adjust based on the forces of supply and demand.
If a shortage exists in the pizza market, then the current price must be.............than the equilibrium price. For the market to reach equilibrium, you would expect................
Answer:
Lower
Buyers would offer higher prices
Explanation:
When a shortage occurs when Demand exceeds supply. Excess demand occurs when price is below equilibrium price and as a result suppliers reduce quantity supplied.
As a result of the shortage, buyers would offer higher prices. As a result of the higher prices, the quantity supplied would increase and equilibrium would be restored.

Answer:
[tex]\mathbf{Max \ Z = 2.033 BR + 2.583 BD + 1.868 CR + 2.418 CD}[/tex]
Explanation:
From the given information:
The total revenue can be illustrated as :
Total revenue = 3.6 BR + 4.4 BD + 3.6 CR + 4.4 CD
On the other hand; the total cost of the beans is:
= 1.1 (0.47 BR + 0.47 BD + 0.62 CR + 0.62 CD)
= 0.517 BR + 0.517 BD + 0.682 CR + 0.682 CD
Also; The total production cost is :
= 0.8 BR + 1.05 BD + 0.8 CR + 1.05 CD
The total profit = Total revenue - Total Cost of Beans - Total Production Cost
The total profit = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{}3.6 BR + 4.4 BD + 3.6 CR + 4.4 CD\\- (0.517 BR + 0.517 BD + 0.682 CR + 0.682 CD)\\-(0.8 BR + 1.05 BD + 0.8 CR + 1.05 CD)\end{array}\right][/tex]
The total profit = 2.033 BR + 2.583 BD + 1.868 CR + 2.418 CD
Therefore the linear programming model represents the Objective function of the total profit as:

During the year, TRC Corporation has the following inventory transactions. Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Total Cost Jan. 1 Beginning inventory 44 $ 36 $ 1,584 Apr. 7 Purchase 124 38 4,712 Jul. 16 Purchase 194 41 7,954 Oct. 6 Purchase 104 42 4,368 466 $ 18,618 For the entire year, the company sells 413 units of inventory for $54 each. Required: 1. Using FIFO, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit.
Answer:
TRC Corporation
Calculations, using FIFO:
a) Ending Inventory:
Ending Inventory in units = Units available for sale minus Units sold
Ending Inventory in units = 466 - 413 = 53 units
Ending Inventory value = Units x FIFO cost of last purchase = 53 x $42 = $2,226
b) Cost of goods sold:
Cost of goods sold = Beginning Inventory + Purchases - Ending Inventory
Cost of goods sold = $1,584 + 17,034 - 2,226 = $16,392
c) Sales Revenue:
Sales Revenue = Units sold x Selling price = 414 x $54 = $22,302
d) Gross Profit:
Gross Profit = Sales Revenue minus Cost of goods sold
Gross Profit = $22,302 - $16,392 = $5,910
Explanation:
a) Summary of Inventory Transactions:
Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Total Cost
Jan. 1 Beginning inventory 44 $ 36 $ 1,584
Apr. 7 Purchase 124 38 4,712
Jul. 16 Purchase 194 41 7,954
Oct. 6 Purchase 104 42 4,368
b) Cost of goods available 466 $ 18,618
c) Sales 413 $ 54 $ 22,302
d) Dec. 31 Ending Inventory 53 42 $ 2,226
e) The FIFO (First-in, First-out) inventory method assumes that goods sold are from earlier inventory units, unlike Last-in, First-out (LIFO). This means that beginning and earlier purchased inventory units are sold first before the latest purchases. Using the FIFO method, the ending inventory is valued at the cost of the most recent inventory purchases.

The income elasticity for most staple foods, such as wheat, is known to be between zero and one. As incomes rise over time, what will happen to the demand for wheat? What will happen to the quantity of wheat purchased by consumers? What will happen to the percentage of their budgets that consumers spend on wheat? All other things equal, are farmers likely to be relatively better off or relatively worse off in periods of rising incomes?
Answer and Explanation:
a. As it is given that the income elasticity of wheat is between zero and one that reflects inelastic and less than unity condition.
So in this, when the income is increased the demand for wheat is also increased but it would be less proportionally
And, the percentage increase in demand for wheat is lower than the increase in income
b. The quantity of wheat purchased is increased as there is an increase in income which increased the demand for all goods
c. The percentage of their budget will go decline as the income elasticity is between zero and one that results into an increase in income and they can switch more expenditure for other goods
d. The farmer condition does not affect overall as if the income increased the demand for other goods is also increased but it is more than the wheat

Assets totaled $24,750 and liabilities totaled $8,550 at the beginning of the year. During the year, assets decreased by $3,550 and liabilities increased by $2,850. What is the amount of the change in stockholders' equity during the year?
Answer:
Amount of the change in stockholders' equity during the year is $6,400 (Decrease)
Explanation:
Assets = $24,750
Liabilities = $8,550
Equity = Assets - Liability
Equity at Beginning : $24,750 -$8,550 = $16,200
Equity at End : ($24,750 - $3,550) - ($8,550+$2,850)
= $21,200 - $11,400
= $9,800
Change in Stock holder's Equity : $16,200 -$9,800
= $6,400(Decrease)

Suppose Ms. Smith sells her 2018 Honda Fit next year. The original cost of the
vehicle was $10,000. During the time she has owned the car she has taken $3,000 dollars
of deprecation on it. Ms. Williams sells the car for $9,000. What is result of the transaction?
A. An ordinary loss of $1,000
B. Long-term capital gain of $2,000
C. An ordinary gain of $2,000
D. An ordinary gain of $6,000
Answer:
An ordinary gain of $2,000
Explanation:
Ms. Smith wants to sell her 2018 Honda fit car next year
The original cost of the car is $10,000
She has incurred $3,000 worth of depreciation on it during the period that she has used the car
She sells the car for $9,000
Her transaction rate can be calculated as follows:
Net value of the car= $10,000-$3,000
= $7,000
Amount of gain realized while selling the car= $9,000-$7,000
= $2,000
Hence Ms. Smith has an ordinary gain of $2,000 after selling her car

Xu owns two investments, A and B, that have a combined total value of $40,000. Investment A is expected to pay $28,000 in 3 years from today and has an expected return of 7.1 percent per year. Investment B is expected to pay $36,000 in T years from today and has an expected return of 5.5 percent per year. What is T, the number of years from today that investment B is expected to pay $36,000?
Answer:
The number of years is [tex]T =13 \ years[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The total value of the investment A and B is [tex]k =[/tex]$40, 000
The future value of A is [tex]F_A =[/tex]$28,000
The time period is t = 3
The expected return of A is [tex]e_A =[/tex] 7.1 % = 0.071
The future value of B is [tex]F_B =[/tex]$36,000
The time period for B is T
The expected return of B is [tex]e_B =[/tex]5.5 % = 0.055
The present value of investment A is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = \frac{F_A }{(1 + e_A) ^t}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]A = \frac{ 28000 }{(1 + 0.071) ^3}[/tex]
[tex]A =[/tex]$ 22792.38
The present value of B is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]B = k - A[/tex]
substituting values
B = 40, 000 - 22792.38
B = $17,208
The future value of B is
[tex]F_B = B * (1 + e_B)^T[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]36,000 =17,208 * (1 + 0.055)^T[/tex]
[tex]2.0921 = (1.055)^T[/tex]
take log of both sides
[tex]log(2.0921) =log (1.055)^T[/tex]
[tex]0.32057 = T log (1.055)[/tex]
=> [tex]T = \frac{0.3206}{0.0232}[/tex]
[tex]T =13 \ years[/tex]
Balance sheet and income statement data indicate the following: Bonds payable, 11% (due in 15 years) $1,023,237 Preferred 8% stock, $100 par (no change during the year) $200,000 Common stock, $50 par (no change during the year) $1,000,000 Income before income tax for year $383,882 Income tax for year $115,165 Common dividends paid $60,000 Preferred dividends paid $16,000 Based on the data presented above, what is the times interest earned ratio (round to two decimal places)
Answer:
The times interest earned (TIE) ratio = 4.41 times
Explanation:
The times interest earned (TIE) ratio is an accounting ratio that shows the extent to which the income income of an organization can be used to cover its future interest expenses. This can be calculated as follows:
TIE Ratio = Earning before interest and tax (EBIT) / Interest expenses
Since,
Bonds payable, 11% (due in 15 years) = $1,023,237
Interest expenses = 11% * $1,023,237 = $112,556.07
Income before income tax for year = $383,882
EBIT = Interest expenses + Income before income tax for year = $112,556.07 + $383,882 = $496,438.07
Therefore, we have:
The times interest earned (TIE) ratio = $496,438.07 / $112,556.07 = 4.41 times
This shows that the income is 4.41 times greater than its annual interest expense. That is, the income can cover the annual interest 4.41 times.

Debit Loss on disposal of equipment for $14,870
Credit Equipment for $79,700
Explanation:
(a) Prepare the journal entries to update depreciation to July 31, 2022.
Note: the correct date to update to is July 31, 2022 not the wrongly stated July 31, 2014 in the question.
The journal entries will look as as follows:
Date Particulars Dr ($) Cr ($)
July 31 Depreciation expenses 4,920
Accumulated depreciation 4,920
To record the updating of depreciation to July 31, 2022.
(a) Prepare the journal entries to record the sale of the equipment.
To prepare this, we need to first calculate the gain or loss on disposal as follows:
Accumulated depreciation till date = $36,130 + $4,970 = $41,100
Net book value = Equipment cost - Accumulated depreciation till date = $79,700 - $41,100 = $38,600
Gain or loss on disposal = Sales proceed - Net book value = $23,730 - $38,600 = $14,870 loss
The journal entries will be as follows:
Date Particulars Dr ($) Cr ($)
July 31 Cash 23,730
Accumulated depreciation 41,100
Loss on disposal of equipment 14,870
Equipment 79,700
(To record disposal of equipment.)
Pekoe sold stock to his sister Rose for $12,000, its fair market value. Pekoe bought the stock 5 years ago for $16,000. Also, Pekoe sold Earl (an unrelated party) stock for $6,500 that he bought 3 years ago for $9,500. What is Pekoe's recognized gain or loss?
Answer:
The answer is $3000
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
Pekoe sold stock to his sister rose for the amount = $12,000
The stock cost 5 years ago for Pekoe = $16,000
Pekoe sold earl stock for =$6,500
Previous stock for earl 3 years ago = $9,500
Now we have to find the recognized loss of Pekoe
THus,
The sale of stock to rose will be a loss of $ 4000
which is
($12,000 -$16,000) =$4000 loss
Thus,
The sale of stock to Earl will result to the following loss which is state below:
$6,500 - $9,500 = a loss of $3000
Therefore the recognized loss of pekoe is $3000 or -$3000
Note: A loss was recognized here, no gain earned
Answer:
Pekoe would recognize the loss of $3,000.
Explanation:
The sale of stock to Rose would result in a loss of $3,000 ($12,000 (FMV) - $16,000 (cost) = $4,000 loss).
Under the tax law, "losses from sale or exchange of property ... directly or indirectly" are disallowed between related parties. When the property is later sold to an unrelated party, any disallowed loss may be used to offset gain on that transaction.
The sale of stock to Earl (an unrelated party) also results in a loss ($6,500 (FMV) - $9,500 (cost) = $3,000 loss). This is considered an arms-length transaction.
Pekoe would recognize the loss of $3,000.
Which of the following is not counted as a part of GDP?
A. the purchase of 100 shares of AT&T stock by your grandfather.
B. the purchase of a snow plough by the city of Minneapolis.
C. the unsold additions to inventory at an appliances store
D. the purchase of a loaf of bread by a consumer
Answer:
C, The unsold additions to inventory at an appliances store.

The Stationery Company purchased merchandise on account from a supplier for $9,100, terms 2/10, n/30. The Stationery Company returned merchandise with an invoice amount of $1,100 and received full credit. a. If The Stationery Company pays the invoice within the discount period, what is the amount of cash required for the payment? $
Answer:
$7,840
Explanation:
The terms 2/10, n/30 means that if the amount is paid in maximum 10 days, the client will receive a 2% discount. If he/she doesn't make the payment in this period, the total amount has to be paid within 30 days.
As Stationary Company returned merchandise with an invoice amount of $1,100, you have to subtract this amount from the initial value of the merchandise they purchased:
$9,100-$1,100= $8,000
Then, you have to calculate the 2% discount they will get from the $8,000 for paying the invoice within the discount period:
$8,000*2%= $160
$8,000-$160= $7,840
According to this, the answer is that the amount of cash required for the payment is $7,840.
During its first year of operations, Mack’s Plumbing Supply Co. had sales of $420,000, wrote off $6,700 of accounts as uncollectible using the direct write-off method, and reported net income of $46,200.

Answer:
The net income would have been $45,550
Explanation:
In order to calculate the amount the net income would have been if the allowance method had been used, and the company estimated that 1 3/4% of sales would be uncollectible, we would have make the following calculation:
Net income would have been if the allowance method had been used = $46,200 + $6,700 – ($420,000 × 1 3/4%)
Net income would have been if the allowance method had been used= $45,550
The net income would have been $45,550

Explanation:
Juggernaut Satellite Corporation earned $19.6 million for the fiscal year ending yesterday. The firm also paid out 30 percent of its earnings as dividends yesterday. The firm will continue to pay out 30 percent of its earnings as annual, end-of-year dividends. The remaining 70 percent of earnings is retained by the company for use in projects. The company has 2.8 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current stock price is $84. The historical return on equity (ROE) of 14 percent is expected to continue in the future.
What is the required rate of return on the stock?
Answer:
The required rate of return on the stock is 12.55%
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
The Company is distributing 30% of its earnings as dividends
Therefore, company is retaining = 100-30 = 70% of its earnings
Growth = Retention ratio * ROE = 0.7*0.14 = 9.8%
Earning = 19.6 million
hence, Paid as dividends = 19.6*0.3 = $5.88 million
The Number of shares outstanding = 2.8 million
hence, Dividend per share = Total dividends / number of shares outstanding = 5.88/2.8 = $2.1
Current stock price = $84
Therefore, to calculate the required rate of return on the stock we would have to use the following formula:
Price of stock = Current dividend*(1+growth)/(r-growth), where r is required rate of return
84 = 2.1*(1.098)/(r-0.098)
40 = 1.098/(r-0.098)
r - 0.098 = 0.02745
r = 0.02745+0.098 = 0.12545
The required rate of return on the stock is 12.55%

2. Jill would like to plan for her son’s college education. She would like for her son, who was born today, to attend college for 5 years, beginning at age 18. Tuition is currently $12,000 per year and tuition inflation is 6%. Jill can earn an after-tax rate of return of 8%. How much must Jill save at the end of each year, if she wants to make the last payment at the beginning of her son’s first year of college?
Answer:
$4,531.50
Explanation:
first we must determine the cost of tuition in 18 years (2038):
$12,000 x (1 + 6%)¹⁸ = $34,252 per year
to calculate the total value of college tuition (5 years) in 2038 we can use the annuity due factor (6% and 5 years) 4.4651:
total college tuition = $34,252 x 4.4651 = $152,939
this means that Jill needs to have $152,939 for the moment her son starts college:
we have to calculate the payment:
to calculate the future value of an annuity (since she starts to save at end of the year, it is an ordinary annuity, not annuity due) we use the following formula:
future value = payment x ordinary annuity factor (8% and 17 years)
we know future value ($152,939) and the annuity factor = 33.7502
payment = future value / annuity factor
payment = $152,939 / 33.7502 = $4,531.50

TerraLoc competes in the market for global positioning devices and services. The company manufactures its own GPS units, which are smaller than those of any other competitor and include a proprietary battery that lasts 200% longer than any other competitor's battery and that TerraLoc manufacturers on-site. TerraLoc also has developed proprietary software that is much faster and more precise than that of any competitor. When developing the proprietary battery, TerraLoc decided to manufacturer the battery in-house to reduce the possibility that the company it outsourced the battery manufacturing to might reverse engineer the battery and sell a similar product to competitors. This possibility was especially troubling given that the company expected a significant increase in demand due to the improved battery life. Additionally, TerraLoc sells its products and services through its own direct sales force to ensure that its representatives highlight the longer battery life of TerraLoc's units.
TerraLoc's decsion to manufacture the battery in-house is most consistent with which theory(s) of vertical integration?
