Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The price per share under MM proposition is
= Debt ÷ Difference in Number of shares
= $1,330,000 ÷ (155,000 - 105,000)
= $26.60
b. The value of the firm under each plans is
For All equity plan
= Share price × Number of shares
= $26.6 × 155,000 shares
= $4,123,000
For Levered plan
= All equity plan value + Debt × Tax rate
= $4,123,000 + $1,330,000 × 0%
= $4,123,000

If the efficient market hypothesis is correct, then a. index funds should typically beat managed funds, and usually do. b. index fund should typically beat managed funds, but usually do not. c. mutual funds should typically beat index funds, and usually do. d. mutual funds should typically beat index funds, but usually do no
Answer:
a. index funds should typically beat managed funds, and usually do.
Explanation:
The efficient market hypothesis is also known as efficient market theory. In financial economics, it is a hypothesis which states that the prices of the assets reflect all the available information. It hypothesizes that the stocks trade at the fair market value on the exchanges. When the efficient market hypothesis is correct, the stock market is informationally efficient and also the index fund usually beat the managed funds.
In year 1, Heron Corp. has depreciation expense for income statement purposes of $10,000. The depreciation deduction on the tax return was $14,000. The enacted tax rate is 30%. Heron's pretax income for the year was $80,000, and its taxable income was $76,000. If this is the only difference between pretax income and taxable income, the journal entry to record tax expense for the year would include which of the following entries?
a. debit tax expense of $22,800.
b. credit deferred tax liability of $4,000.
c. debit tax expense of $24,000.
d. credit taxes payable of $22,800.
e. credit deferred tax liability of $1,200.
Answer:
The correct options are as follows:
c. debit tax expense of $24,000.
d. credit taxes payable of $22,800.
e. credit deferred tax liability of $1,200.
Explanation:
In the question, we are given the following:
Enacted tax rate = 30%
Pretax income for the year = $80,000
Taxable income = $76,000
The following can now be calculated:
Tax expense = Pretax income for the year * Enacted tax rate = $80,000 * 30% = $24,000
Tax payable = Taxable income * Enacted tax rate = $76,000 * 30% = $22,800
Excess of Tax expense over Tax payable = Tax expense - Tax payable = $24,000 - $22,800 = $1,200
The above will then be recorded as follows:
Debit tax expense of $24,000.
Credit taxes payable of $22,800.
Credit deferred tax liability of $1,200.
Therefore, the correct options are as follows:
c. debit tax expense of $24,000.
d. credit taxes payable of $22,800.
e. credit deferred tax liability of $1,200.

33) A company purchased $1,800 of merchandise on July 5 with terms 2/10, n/30. On July 7, it returned $200 worth of merchandise. On July 28, it paid the full amount due. Assuming the company uses a perpetual inventory system, and records purchases using the gross method, the correct journal entry to record the payment on July 28 is:
Answer: Debit Account Payable $1600, Credit Cash $1600
Explanation:
If the perpetual inventory system, and purchases are recorded through the use of a gross method, the correct journal entry to record the payment on July 28 will be to Debit Account Payable $1600, and then Credit Cash $1600.
In this case, we should note that we don't need any adjustment for discount. This is because the payment made was on the 28th of July.

Explanation:
Nadine Chelesvig has patented her invention. She is offering a patent manufacturer two contracts for the exclusive right to manufacture and market her product. Plan A calls for an immediate single lump payment to her of $35,000. Plan B calls for an annual payment of $1,200 plus a royalty of $0.40 per unit sold. The remaining life of the patent is 10 years. Nadine uses a MARR of 7 %/year.
a. What must be the uniform annual sales volume of the product for Nadine to be indifferent between the contracts, based on a present worth analysis?
b. If the sales volume is below the volume determined in (a), which contract would the manufacturer prefer?
Answer:
A) 9458 units
B) She would prefer the one with the single lump payment of $35,000 because the present value of the other one would increase with an increase in the units sold.
Explanation:
A) To calculate the uniform annual sales volume based on a present worth analysis, we will make use of the formula for present value of annuity.
Thus;
P = PMT × (1 - ((1/(1 - rⁿ))/r
From the question, we are given;
P = $35,000
PMT = (1200 + 0.4x)
r = 7% = 0.07
n = 10
Thus, Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
(1200 + 0.4x)((1 - (1/(1 + 0.07)^10))/0.07 = 35000
This gives;
(1200 + 0.4x) × 7.0236 = 35000
(1200 + 0.4x) = 35000/7.0236
(1200 + 0.4x) = 4983.2
0.4x = 4983.2 - 1200
0.4x = 3783.2
x = 3783.2/0.4
x = 9458 units
B) She would prefer the one with the single lump payment of $35,000 because the present value of the other one would increase with an increase in the units sold.
Trendy Toes produces sports socks. The company has fixed expenses of $85,000 and variable expenses of $1.20 per package. Each package sells for $2.00.
Requirements:
1. Compute the contribution margin per package and the contribution margin ratio.
2. Find the breakeven point in units and in dollars.
3. Find the number of packages Trendy Toes needs to sell to earn a $26,000 operating income.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the contribution margin and contribution margin ratio we need to use the following formulas:
contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost
contribution margin= 2 - 1.2= 0.8
contribution margin ratio= contribution margin / selling price
contribution margin ratio= 0.8 / 2
contribution margin ratio= 0.4
Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units and dollars:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 85,000 / 0.8
Break-even point in units= 106,250
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 85,000 / 0.4
Break-even point (dollars)= $212,500
Finally, the desired profit is $26,000:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 111,000 / 0.8
Break-even point in units= 138,750
QS 8-7 Computing revised depreciation LO C2 On January 1, the Matthews Band pays $65,200 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for five years and after five years it can sell the equipment for $2,000. Matthews Band uses straight-line depreciation but realizes at the start of the second year that this equipment will last only a total of three years. The salvage value is not changed. Compute the revised depreciation for both the second and third years.
Answer:
$25,280 per year
Explanation:
The computation of the revised depreciation for both the second and third years is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
Depreciation for year 1 = [Cost – Salvage Value] ÷Useful Life
= [$65,200 - 2,000] ÷ 5 Years
= $12,640
Now Book Value at point of revision is
= Cost - First year depreciation
= $65,200 - $12,640
= $52,560
Now
Remaining Depreciable Cost = Book Value at the point of revision - Salvage Value
= $52,560 – 2,000
= $50,560
And, finally Depreciation per year for Year 2 and 3 is
= Depreciable cost / Remaining useful life
= $50,560 ÷ 2 Year
= $25,280 per year

Answer the below case problem, giving the legal issue, the governing law and the rationale in support of your conclusion.
Arthur Jensen, Inc., was a corporation engaged in the housing construction business.
Arthur Jensen set up and was the sole owner and president of the corporation. Alaska Valuation Service [AVS] conducted housing appraisals for Jensen on numerous occasions over the years. When AVS took the orders for appraisals, it was not aware that it was dealing with a corporation. It believed that it was dealing directly with Jensen [i.e., as a sole proprietor]. Jensen never specifically informed AVS of his status as the president of Arthur Jensen, Inc. When AVS was not paid for appraisal services that it had performed, AVS sued Arthur Jensen, attempting to hold him personally liable for the unpaid appraisals.
Arthur Jensen argued that he could not be personally liable because he had acted on behalf of his corporation.
1. Decide the case based on the above stated facts.
2. Assuming Arthur Jensen could be held personally liable, how could Arthur
Jensen have better protected himself? [we discussed this in class]
Answer:
1. Decide the case based on the above stated facts.
Corporations provide limited liability to their owners, and one person corporations are legal in all states. Depending on how Arthur handled his business, the corporate veil might or not be lifted. If he separated the corporate account and managed the corporation separately for his other assets, then he is not liable.
On the other hand, if he paid the bills using his personal account, or used the corporation's assets as his own, then the outcome might change. We are not given enough details.
2. Assuming Arthur Jensen could be held personally liable, how could Arthur Jensen have better protected himself?
Simple, he should sign as the president of the corporation and pay using the corporation's account.
Campbell Boat Company makes inexpensive aluminum fishing boats. Production is seasonal, with considerable activity occurring in the spring and summer. Sales and production tend to decline in the fall and winter months. During year 2, the high point in activity occurred in June when it produced 201 boats at a total cost of $155,550. The low point in production occurred in January when it produced 36 boats at a total cost of $45,000. Required Use the high-low method to estimate the amount of fixed cost incurred each month by Campbell Boat Company. Determine the total estimated cost if 160 boats are made.
Answer:
Campbell Boat Company
a) The amount of fixed cost incurred each month by Campbell Boat Company is:
= $20,880.
b) The total estimated cost if 160 boats are made is:
= $128,080.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
June production = 201 boats at a total cost of $155,550
January production = 36 boats at a total cost of $45,000
Differences = 165 boats at $110,550
Variable cost per boat = $670 ($110,550/165)
Fixed cost, at the June production level:
Variable costs = $134,670 ($670 * 201)
Fixed costs = $20,880 ($155,550 - $134,670)
Check at January production level of 36 boats:
Variable costs = $24,120 ($670 * 36)
Fixed costs = 20,880 ($45,000 - $24,120)
At 160 boats production level:
Variable costs = $107,200 ($670 * 160)
Fixed costs = 20,880
Total costs = $128,080

Assume the firms operating in an oligopolistic market experience a relatively small change in marginal costs. According to the kinked demand curve model this would: A) cause a large change in the profit-maximizing level of output. B) leave the equilibrium price unchanged. C) cause the profit-maximizing level of output to change by the same amount and in the same direction. D) cause the profit-maximizing price to change by the same amount but in the opposite direction.
Answer:
B) Leave the equilibrium price unchanged.
Explanation:
Oligopolistic market is the arrangement where few companies offer same product to the customers. There is very less competition in the market so every supplier has fair chance for operating their business successfully. The kinked demand model curve in oligopolistic market would leave the equilibrium price unchanged.
Suppose two factors are identified for the U.S. economy: the growth rate of industrial production, IP, and the inflation rate, IR. IP is expected to be 4% and IR 6%. A stock with a beta of 1 on IP and 0.7 on IT currently is expected to provide a rate of return of 12%. If industrial production actually grows by 5%, while the inflation rate turns out to be 8%, what will be your expected rate of return on the stock, given the new information about the industrial production rate and the inflation rate
Answer:
14.4%
Explanation:
Calculation for what will be your expected rate of return on the stock.
Expected rate of return on the stock=12% + 1(5%-4%) + .7(8%-6%)
Expected rate of return on the stock=12%+1(1%)+.7(2%)
Expected rate of return on the stock=12%+1%+1.4%
Expected rate of return on the stock=14.4%
Therefore your expected rate of return on the stock is 14.4%
Farmer Owens has an apple orchard that must be pollinated by bees in order to bear fruit. Farmer Owens's neighbor, Maude, owns beehives with bees that can pollinate the apple trees. Suppose the benefit of the bees to Farmer Owens is $ per year. Suppose the bees provide no benefit to Maude but she must pay $ per year to maintain the hives. If Farmer Owens and Maude engage in Coase bargaining, what would likely result?
Answer: A. Farmer Owens would pay Maude between $3,000 and $5,000 to maintain the hives.
Explanation:
Coarse bargaining refers to a scenario where parties involved in a conflict over property rights can reach an efficient agreement that would reflect the costs and values of the property in question.
In this scenario, Farmer Owens is making a benefit of $5,000. Owens would therefore be willing to pay a maximum of $5,000 for the benefit and no more.
Maude spends $3,000 on the hives which means that she needs a minimum of $3,000 to cover those costs.
They should therefore reach an agreement where Farmer Owens would pay between $3,000 and $5,000 to Maude so that she can maintain the hives.

$24 worth of goods, including beads, trinkets, cloth, kettles, and axe heads. Many people find it laughable that Manhattan Island would be sold for $24, but you need to consider the future value (FV) of that price in more current times. If the $24 purchase price could have been invested at a 5.25% annual interest rate, what is its value as of 2018 (392 years later)
Answer:
FV= $12,338,893,301
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment (PV)= $24
Number of periods (n)= 392 years
Interest rate (i)= 5.25% compounded annually
To calculate the value of the initial investment today, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 24*(1.0525^392)
FV= $12,338,893,301

Total 24,000 $204,355
OUTPUTS
Completed and Transferred 19,000 $157,890
Ending Inventory 5,000 $19,465
Total 24,000 $177,355
Explanation:
Step 1 : Units in Ending Work in Progress
Units in Ending Work in Progress = 6,000 + 18,000 - 19,000 = 5,000 units
Step 2 : Equivalent Units
Materials = 19,000 x 100 % + 5,000 x 100% = 24,000 units
Conversion Costs = 19,000 x 100 % + 5,000 x 30% = 20,500 units
Step 3 : Cost per Equivalent units
Materials = ($9,000 + $39,000) ÷ 24,000 units = $2.00
Conversion Costs = ($18,000 + $75,000 + $36,355) ÷ 20,500 units = $6.31
Total = $2.00 + $6.31 = $8.31
Step 4 : Cost of units transferred and units in ending inventory
Cost of units transferred = $8.31 x 19,000 = $157,890
Cost of units in ending inventory = $2.00 x 5,000 + $6.31 x 1,500 = $19,465
Apple Inc. is starting a new project. It plans to manufacture new type of i-Phones that have a 3D screen effect. It expects these phones to be a great success and bring rapidly growing profits in the first few years. After that, it expects the competition from other phone companies to kick in which will reduce the growth of annual profits. The dividends on Apple's shares will be growing accordingly. Here is the exact schedule of expected future dividends: Most recently paid dividend is $3. Expected annual growth rate of dividends for the first 3 years is 50%. Expected annual growth rate of dividends after that is 14%. Discount rate for this company is 16%.
Calculate the price per share of stock of Apple Inc. (Increase decimal places for any intermediate calculations, from the default 2 to 6 or higher. Only round your final answer to TWO decimal places: for example, 100.23. DO NOT put "$" in your answer.)
Answer:
P0 = 385.121878 rounded off to 385.12
Explanation:
To calculate the market price of the stock today, we will use the two stage growth model of DDM. The two stage growth model calculates the values of the stock today based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n + [(D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2)) / (r - g2)] / (1+r)^n
Where,
D0 is the dividend today g1 is the short term growth rate g2 is the long term or constant growth r is the required rate of return on the stock
P0 = 3 * (1+0.50) / (1+0.16) + 3 * (1+0.50)^2 / (1+0.16)^2 + 3 * (1+0.50)^3 / (1+0.16)^3 + [(3 * (1+0.50)^3 * (1+0.14)) / (0.16 - 0.14)] / (1+0.16)^3
P0 = $385.121878 rounded off to $385.12
An environmental consultant is considering the installation of a water storage tank for a client. The tank is estimated to have an initial cost of $309,000, and annual maintenance costs are estimated to be $7,100 per year. As an alternative, a holding pond can be provided a short distance away at an initial cost of $225,000 for the pond plus $90,000 for pumps and piping. Annual operating and maintenance costs for the pumps and holding pond are estimated to be $16,000. The planning horizon is 20 years, and at that time, neither alternative has any salvage value.
Required:
Determine the preferred alternative based on a present worth analysis with a MARR of 20 percent/year.
Answer:
The preferred alternative based on a present worth analysis with a MARR of 20% per year is:
the Installation of a water Storage Tank
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
MARR = 20% per year
Time period or planning horizon = 20 years
Alternatives
Tank Pond
Initial costs $309,000 $315,000 ($225,000 + $90,000)
Annual maintenance costs 7,100 16,000
PV annuity factor 4.870 4.870
Total PV: maintenance cost $34,577 $77,920 ($16,000 * 4.870)
Total PW costs $343,577 $392,920 ($315,000 + $77,920)
Present worth is the same as the present value (PV) of a future amount, discounted to the present using a specified rate.
The Assembly Department started the month with 25,300 units in its beginning work in process inventory. An additional 310,300 units were transferred in from the prior department during the month to begin processing in the Assembly Department. There were 30,300 units in the ending work in process inventory of the Assembly Department. How many units were transferred to the next processing department during the month
Answer:
305,300 units
Explanation:
The computation of the number of units that should be transferred to the next processing department is given below:
As we know that
Opening inventory +Transferred in inventory = Transferred out inventory + ending inventory
25,300 units + 310,300 units = Transferred out inventory + 30,300 units
So, the Transferred out inventory is
= 25,300 units + 310,300 units - 30,300 units
= 305,300 units
Maxim Corp. has provided the following information about one of its products: Date Transaction Number of Units Cost per Unit 1/1 Beginning Inventory 200 $ 140 6/5 Purchase 400 $ 160 11/10 Purchase 100 $ 200 During the year, Maxim sold 400 units. What is ending inventory using the average cost method
Answer:
$48,000
Explanation:
The computation of ending inventory using average method is shown below
Total units = 200 + 400 + 100 = 700
Total cost = (200 × $140) + (400 × $160) + (100 × $200)
= $28,000 + $64,000 + $20,000
= $112,000
Average cost per unit = $112,000/700 = $160
Ending inventory = Total units - units sold
= 700 - 400
= 300
Therefore, cost of ending inventory = Ending inventory × Average cost per unit
= 300 units × $160
= $48,000
. Prepare a contribution format income statement segmented by divisions. 2-a. The Marketing Department has proposed increasing the West Division's monthly advertising by $28,000 based on the belief that it would increase that division's sales by 19%. Assuming these estimates are accurate, how much would the company's net operating income increase (decrease) if the proposal is implemented
Answer:
1. ($98,560)
2a. Increase by $36,790
2b. Yes
Explanation:
1. Preparation of a contribution format income statement segmented by divisions
CONTRIBUTION FORMAT INCOME STATEMENT
East + Central + West= Total Company
