Answer:
c. make a sterilized purchase of foreign bonds.
Explanation:
A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (investor or creditor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time. The bond issuer are expected to return the principal (face value) at maturity with an agreed upon interest (coupon), which are paid at fixed intervals.
Bonds are generally debts, which may be floated in different ways with respect to the issuer of the bond and its type. Bonds are used by government and corporate institutions to borrow money with interest and they also have to pay for the face value of the bonds at maturity.
The par value of a bond is its face value and it comprises of its total dollar amount as well as its maturity value. Also, the par value of a bond gives the basis on which periodic interest is paid. Thus, a bond is issued at par value when the market rate of interest is the same as the contract rate of interest. This simply means that, a bond would be issued at par (face) value when the bond's stated rated is significantly equal to the effective or market interest rate on the specific date it was issued.
In Economics, bonds could either be issued at discount or premium. A bond that is being issued at a discount has its stated rate lower than the market interest rate, on the specific date of issuance while a bond that is issued at a premium, has its stated rate higher than the market interest rate on the specific date of issuance.
Hence, a central bank can increase its international reserves without changing the domestic money supply by making a sterilized purchase of foreign bonds.

Explanation:
Dawson Toys, Ltd., produces a toy called the Maze. The company has recently created a standard cost system to help control costs and has established the following standards for the Maze toy:
Direct materials: 6 microns per toy at $1.50 per micron
Direct labor: 1.3 hours per toy at $21 per hour
During July, the company produced 3,000 Maze toys. The toy's production data for the month are as follows: Direct materials: 25,000 microns were purchased at a cost of $1.48 per micron. 5,000 of these microns were still in inventory at the end of the month. Direct labor: 4,000 direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $88,000.
Required:
Compute the variances for July.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the variance is shown below;
a) Material price variance is
= (Standard price - actual price) × actual quantity
= ($1.5 - $1.48) × 25000
= $500 F
b. Material quantity variance is
= (Standard quantity - actual quantity) × Standard price
= (3000 × 6 - 20,000) × 1.5
= $3,000 U
c) Labor rate variance is
= (Standard rate - actual rate) × actual hours
= ($21 × 4000 - $88,000)
= $4,000 U
d. Labor efficiency variance is
= (Standard hour - actual hour) × Standard rate
= (3000 × 1.3 - 4000) × 21
= $2,100 U

Answer:
A. $25,200
B. Accounts Receivable $770,000
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $32,200
Bad Debt Expense $25,200
C. $744,800
Explanation:
a. Calculation to Determine the amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts using this formula
Uncollectible accounts Adjusting entry= Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Credit balance on Allowance for doubtful accounts
Let plug in the formula
Uncollectible accounts Adjusting entry=$32,200 - $7,000
Uncollectible accounts Adjusting entry= $25,200
Therefore the amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts is $25,200
B. Based on the information given the adjusted balances of Accounts Receivable will be $770,000
Based on the information given the adjusted balances of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts will be $32,200
Bad Debt Expense = $32,200 - $7,000
Bad Debt Expense= $25,200
c. Calculation to Determine the net realizable value of accounts receivable
Using this formula
Net realizable value of accounts receivable = Accounts receivables - Bad debt
Let plug in the formula
Net realizable value of accounts receivable= $770,000 - $25,200
Net realizable value of accounts receivable=$744,800
Therefore Net realizable value of accounts receivable is $744,800
Consider the economies of Sporon and Gribinez, both of which produce agricultural products using only land and labor. The following tables show the supply of land, population size, and real GDP for these two economies from 2020 to 2023. Calculate real GDP per capita for the two economies, and complete the last column of the following two tables.
Sporon
Year Land Population Real GDP Real GDP per Capita
(Acres)
2020 20,000 1,000 $15,000 $
2021 20,000 2,000 $28,000 $
2022 20,000 3,000 $36,000 $
2023 20,000 4,000 $40,000 $
Gribinez
Year Land Population Real GDP Real GDP per Capita
(Acres)
2020 20,000 500 $4,500 $
2021 20,000 1,000 $10,000 $
2022 20,000 1,500 $16,500 $
2023 20,000 2,000 $24,000 $
Rapid population growth tends to threaten economic growth in economies with land-to-labor ratios. Which of the following is a correct description of the effect of population growth on economic growth in Gribinez from 2020 to 2023?
a. *Real GDP per capita rose initially but eventually fell as population continued to expand.
b. *Real GDP per capita rose from 2011 to 2014 as population increased.
c. *Real GDP per capita fell in*Real GDP per capita fell from 2011 to 2014 as population increased.
Answer:
Sporon
2020 $15
2021 $14
2022 $12
2023 $10
Gribinez
2020 $9
2021 $10
2022 $11
2023 $12
Real GDP per capita rose from 2020 to 2023 as population increased.
Explanation:
Real Per capita GDP measures the standard of living of the people in a country. The higher the Real Per capita GDP, the higher the standard of living
Real Per capita GDP = Real GDP / population
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
Sporon
2020 : $15,000 / 1000 = $15
2021: $28,000 / 2000 = $14
2022 : $36,000 /3,000 = $12
2023: $40,000/4000 = $10
Gribinez
2020 : $4500 / 500= $9
2021 : $10,000 / 1000 = $10
2022 $16,500 / 1500= $11
2023: $24,000 / 2000 = $12
The real GDP per capita of Gribinez rose from 2011 to 2014 as population increased because the rate of increase of real GDP per capita was higher than the rate of increase in population
Rate of increase of population in 2022 = (1500 / 1000) - 1 = 0.5 = 50%
Rate of increase in Real GDP in 2022 = (16500 / 10,000) - 1 = 0.65 = 65%
At the beginning of his current tax year, Eric bought a corporate bond with a maturity value of $25,000 from the secondary market for $17,800. The bond has a stated annual interest rate of 8 percent payable on June 30 and December 31, and it matures in five years on December 31. Absent any special tax elections, how much interest income will Eric report from the bond this year and in the year the bond matures
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the interest income reported this year will be:
= ($25000 × 8%/2) × 2
= $25000 × 0.04 × 2
= $2000
The interest income that will be reported in the year the bond matures will be:
= $2000 + ($25000 - $17800)
= $2000 + $7200
= $9200
Residents of poor countries tend to have fewer automobiles per capita because Group of answer choices lower per capita real gross domestic product (GDP) growth rates allow for less spending on automobiles. residents of poor countries generally prefer to walk. tax rates are higher in poor countries, which leaves less money to spend on cars. residents of poor countries tend to live on farms, where cars are unnecessary. residents of wealthy countries have automobiles provided to them by the government.
Answer:
lower per capita real gross domestic product (GDP) growth rates allow for less spending on automobiles.
Explanation:
Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is a measure of the total market value of all finished goods and services made within a country during a specific period.
Simply stated, GDP is a measure of the total income of all individuals in an economy and the total expenses incurred on the economy's output of goods and services in a particular country.
Generally, the Gross Domestic Products (GDP) of a country's economy gives an insight to the social well-being of the country, such as;
Adjusting the Real gross domestic product (Real GDP) for price level changes by using a price index. This simply means, Real GDP is adjusted for inflation to measure the value of goods and services produced by a country in a specific period of time.
Mathematically, [tex]{Real GDP}=\frac{\text{Nominal GDP}}{\text{GDP deflator}}[/tex]
Hence, residents of poor countries tend to have fewer automobiles per capita because lower per capita real gross domestic product (GDP) growth rates allow for less spending on automobiles.
Maplewood Company incurred the following costs for 70,000 units: Variable costs $420,000 Fixed costs 392,000 Maplewood has received a special order from a foreign company for 3,000 units. There is sufficient capacity to fill the order without jeopardizing regular sales. Filling the order will require spending an additional $6,300 for shipping. If Maplewood wants to break even on the order, what should the unit sales price be
Answer:
$8.1
Explanation:
Variable cost to be incurred for the offer = ($420,000/70,000) * 3,000
Variable cost to be incurred for the offer = $6 * 3,000
Variable cost to be incurred for the offer = $18,000
Additional Fixed cost = $6,300
Total Cost incurred for the offer = Variable cost to be incurred for the offer + Additional Fixed cost
Total Cost incurred for the offer = $18,000 + $6,300
Total Cost incurred for the offer = $24,300
Unit Sales Price (Break even) = Total Cost incurred for the offer / 3,000 units
Unit Sales Price (Break even) = $24,300 / 3,000 units
Unit Sales Price (Break even) = $8.1

The D. Dorner Farms Corporation is considering purchasing one of two fertilizer-herbicides for the upcoming year. The more expensive of the two is better and will produce a higher yield. Assume these projects are mutually exclusive and that the required rate of return is 10 percent. Given the following free cash flows:
Product A Product B
Initial outlay -$5000 -$5000
Inflow year 1 700 6,000
Required:
a. Calculate the NPV of each project.
b. Calculate the PI of each project.
c. Calculate the IRR of each project.
d. If there is no capital-rationing constraint, which project should be selected? If there is a capital-rationing constraint, how should the decision be made?
Question Correction:
The question stated that there is a more expensive fertilizer-herbicide. Therefore, their initial outlays cannot be equal as stated. Instead, the correct cash flows, including initial outlays are:
Product A Product B
Initial outlay -$500 -$5000
Inflow year 1 700 6,000
Answer:
The D. Dorner Farms Corporation
Product A Product B
a. NPV = $136 $454
b. PI = 1.272 1.091
c. IRR = 27.2% 9.08%
d. If there is no capital-rationing constraint, Project B should be chosen despite its poor PI and IRR performances, but for returning a larger NPV.
e. If there is a capital-rationing constraint, Project A should be chosen because of its more impressive PI and IRR performances.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Required rate of return for the projects = 10%
Present factor of 10% for 1 year = 0.909
Free cash flows:
Product A Product B
Initial outlay -$500 -$5000
Inflow year 1 700 6,000
Present values:
Product A Product B
Initial outlay -$500 -$5000
Inflow year 1 636 5,454
NPV = $136 $454
b) PI (Profitability Index) is a useful tool in capital budgeting which measures the profit potential of a project in order to ease decisions. It is computed by dividing the present value of cash inflows by the initial investment cost. Another formula is: 1 + (NPV/Initial outlay).
Therefore, the PI for each project is calculated as follows:
PI = 1+ (NPV/Initial outlay)
Product A Product B
PI = 1 + ($136/$500) 1 + ($454/$5,000)
= 1.272 1.091
IRR (Internal Rate of Return) = NPV/Initial Outlay
Product A Product B
IRR = $136/$500 * 100 $454/$5,000 * 100
= 27.2% 9.08%
Starting with the finished version of the file for Example 9.3, change the fixed cost in cell B5 to $4000. Change the probabilities in cells B9 (make it smaller), B14 (make it larger), and B15 (make it smaller) in some systematic way (you can choose the details) and, for each combination, calculate the EVI. Does EVI change in the way you’d expect? Why?
Answer:
hello your question lacks the required file ( excel file ) attached below is the missing file
Answer : The EVI does not change in the way expected and this is because of the higher probability assignment
Explanation:
1) calculate the EVI for the first combination
i.e. B5 = $2000, B9 = 0.4, B14 = 0.8, B15 = 0.3
EVI = EMI with information - EMI without information
= 3250 - 3400
= $ 150
note : EMI with information is gotten via solution tree
2) Calculate the EVI for the second combination
i.e. B5 = $4000 , B9 = 0.3 , B14 = 0.9, B15 = 0.2
EVI = EMI with information - EMI without information
= $1378 - $500 = $878
wo firms, A and B, each currently emit 100 tons of chemicals into the air. The government has decided to reduce the pollution and from now on require a pollution permit for each ton of pollution emitted into the air. The government gives each firm 50 pollution permits, which it can either use of sell to the other firm. It costs Firm A $200 for each ton of pollution that it eliminates before it is emitted into the air, and it cots Firm B $100 for each ton of pollution that it eliminates before it is emitted into the air. If the two firms have the same bargaining power, what would be the gains from trade for Firm B
Answer:
Firm A will buy all of the firm B's pollution permits. Each one will cost between $100 and $200.
Explanation:
The firm B will gain from the trade of pollution permits. Firm A will need higher pollution permits since it emits 100 tons of chemicals into air and the cost for eliminating each ton is $200. This cost is higher than the cost to Firm B which is $100 only. Firm A will buy all the pollution permits from Firm B and there will advantage for the Firm B to gain from the trade.

6. Problems and Applications Q6 Suppose the Federal Reserve's policy is to maintain low and stable inflation by keeping unemployment at its natural rate. However, the Fed believes that the natural rate of unemployment is 4 percent when the actual natural rate is 5 percent. If the Fed bases its policy decisions on its belief, there will be a
Answer: Rising trend
Explanation:
If the actual natural rate is 5%, it would be higher than the natural rate of 4%. This would prompt the Fed to act in such a way as to reduce unemployment in the economy. To do this, they would embark on an expansionary monetary policy to get the economy growing so that more people can be employed.
When there is more money in the economy though, people will have more to buy goods and services and this increase in demand will cause inflation to rise to reflect that there is more demand than supply.

On January 1, 2020, Blue Inc. had cash and common stock of $62,340. At that date, the company had no other asset, liability, or equity balances. On January 2, 2020, it purchased for cash $22,990 of debt securities that it classified as available-for-sale. It received interest of $4,480 during the year on these securities. In addition, it has an unrealized holding gain on these securities of $5,100 net of tax. Determine the following amounts for 2020: (a) net income, (b) comprehensive income, (c) other comprehensive income, and (d) accumulated other comprehensive income (end of 2020).
Answer:
(a) Net income = $3,000
(b) Comprehensive income = $7,000
(c) Other comprehensive income = $4,000
(d) Accumulated other comprehensive income = $4,000
Explanation:
This question is based on multi-step income statement. Therefore, some of the elements of the multi-step income statement are employed in answering this question.
(a) net income
This can be calculated as follows:
Net income = Operating income + Total other income and expense – Tax expense ………… (1)
Where, based on information in the question, we have:
Operating income = Not available = 0
Total other income and expense = Interest income = $3,000
Tax expense = Not available = 0
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Net income = 0 + $3,000 – 0 = $3,000
(b) comprehensive income
This can be calculated as follows:
Comprehensive income = Net income + Other comprehensive income …... (2)
Where:
Net income = $3,000
Other comprehensive income = Unrealized holding gain on securities = $4,000
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
Comprehensive income = $3,000 + $4,000 = $7,000
(c) other comprehensive income
As already stated in part (b) above, we have:
Other comprehensive income = Unrealized holding gain on securities = $4,000
(d) accumulated other comprehensive income (end of 2020).
As there is no other income from the question, this implies that:
Accumulated other comprehensive income = Unrealized holding gain on securities = $4,000
Mrs. Eller's corporate employer has a cafeteria plan under which its employees can receive a $3,000 year-end Christmas bonus or enroll in a qualified medical reimbursement plan that pays up to $3,000 of annual medical bills. Mrs. Eller is in a 24 percent tax bracket, and her medical bills average $2,300 each year.
a. Should Mrs. Eller choose the cash bonus or the nontaxable fringe benefit? (Ignore any payroll tax implications.)
b. Does your answer change if Mrs. Eller is in the 12 percent tax bracket?
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation is shown below;
Cash bonus after tax is ($3,000 × (1 - 0.24) $2,280
And, non taxable fringe benefit is $2,300
So here he should use the nontaxable fringe benefit
b. Yes answer would be changed
Cash bonus after tax is ($3,000 × (1 - 0.12) $2,640
And, non taxable fringe benefit is $2,300
hence, the same is to be considered

Basket Purchase Of Copier, Computer, Scanner $61,500
Land For New Warehouse $310,050
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of cost to be capitalized in the asset accounts
NEW OFFICE EQUIPMENT
Amount of cost to be capitalised in the asset accounts = $41,900*0.98+$860+$510+$431
Amount of cost to be capitalised in the asset accounts =$41,062+$860+$510+$431
Amount of cost to be capitalised in the asset accounts =$42,863
BASKET PURCHASE OF COPIER, COMPUTER AND SCANNER
Amount of cost to be capitalised in the asset accounts = $22,755 + $6,765 + $31,980
Amount of cost to be capitalised in the asset accounts= $61,500
LAND FOR NEW WAREHOUSE with an old building torn down
Amount of cost to be capitalised in the asset accounts = $82,400 + $4,750 - $1,800 + $7,700 + $217,000
Amount of cost to be capitalised in the asset accounts = $310,050
Therefore The Amount of cost to be capitalised in the asset accounts are:
New Office Equipment $42,863

Logistics Solutions provides order fulfillment services for dot merchants. The company maintains warehouses that stock items carried by its dot clients. When a client receives an order from a customer, the order is forwarded to Logistics Solutions, which pulls the item from storage, packs it, and ships it to the customer. The company uses a predetermined variable overhead rate based on direct labor-hours.
In the most recent month, 185,000 items were shipped to customers using 8,000 direct labor-hours. The company incurred a total of $27600 in variable overhead costs. According to the company's standards, 0.04 direct labor-hours are required to fulfill an order for one item and the variable overhead rate is $3.50 per direct labor-hour.
Required:
a. What is the standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to ship 185,000 items to customers?
b. What is the standard variable overhead cost allowed (SH SR) to ship 185,000 items to customers?
c. What is the variable overhead spending variance?
d. What is the variable overhead rate variance and the variable overhead efficiency variance?
Answer:
Standard labor-hours allowed= 7,400 direct labor Hours.
The standard variable overhead cost= $ 25,900
Variable overhead spending variance =$400
Variable overhead rate variance =$400
Variable overhead efficiency variance=$2,100
Explanation
a.) The standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to ship 185,000 items to customers
= 0.04 direct labor-hours x 185,000= 7,400 direct labor Hours.
b). The standard variable overhead cost allowed to ship 185,000 items to customers=
standard labor-hours SH × Standard Rate SR
7400 X $3.50= $ 25,900
c). Variable overhead spending variance is calculated as
Actual Overhead Costs - Actual hours x Standard Rate
= $27600 - 8,000 x 3.50 = $27600 -28,000
=$400
d1). Variable overhead rate variance =
Actual hours x Actual Variable Overhead Rate per Hour - Actual hours Standard Variable Overhead Rate per Hour
Variable overhead rate variance =8000 x (27600/8000) - 8000 x 3.50
8000 x 3.45 - 8000 x 3.50
27,600-28,000=$400
d2) Variable overhead efficiency variance= Actual Hours x Standard Rate - Standard Hours x Standard Rate
8000 x 3.50 -7400 x 3.50
28,000 -25,900
=$2,100

9. The NOI for a small income property is expected to be $150,000 for the first year. Financing will be based on a 1.2 DCR applied to the first year NOI, will have a 10 percent interest rate, and will be amortized over 20 years with monthly payments. The NOI will increase 3 percent per year after the first year. The investor expects to hold the property for five years. The resale price is estimated by applying a 9 percent terminal capitalization rate to the sixth-year NOI. Investors require a 12 percent rate of return on equity (equity yield rate) for this type of property. a. What is the present value of the equity interest in the property
Answer:
a. The present value of the equity interest in the property is:
= PV = $1,096,338
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Debt Coverage Ratio = 1.2
Debt interest = $150,000/1.2 = $125,000
Interest rate = 10%
Therefore, total financing or debt obtained = $125,000/10% = $1,250,000
NOI for the first year = $150,000
NOI for other years = 3% per year after the first year.
Holding period of property = 5 years
Therefore, expected NOIs for the second to fifth year are calculated as follows:
Net operating income (NOI):
First Year = $150,000
Second Year = $154,500 ($150,000 * 1.03)
Third Year = $159,135 ($154,500 * 1.03)
Fourth Year = $163,909 ($159,135 * 1.03)
Fifth Year = $168,826 ($163,909 * 1.03)
Sixth year NOI = $173,891 ($168,826 * 1.03)
Terminal capitalization rate = 9%
Resale price = NOI of the sixth year/Terminal cap rate
= $173,891/9% = $1,932,122
The present value of the equity interest in the property:
From an online financial calculator:
N (# of periods) 5
I/Y (Interest per year) 12
PMT (Periodic Payment) 0
FV (Future Value) $1,932,122
Results
PV = $1,096,337.91
Total Interest $835,784.09
Q 9.20: City Mission is a not-for-profit organization that provides hot meals, living quarters, and showers for homeless people. Based on their yearly budget, they expect to spend $450,000 on food expenses, $350,000 on housing expenses, $280,000 on staff salaries, $90,000 on utilities, and $118,000 on other expenses. How much will City Mission need to raise in donations
Answer:
at least $1,288,000 in donation
Explanation:
With regards to the above information, we would add up all the expenses to arrive at how much donation that need City Mission needs to raise.
= Expenses on food + Housing expenses + Staff salaries + Utilities + Other expenses
= $450,000 + $350,000 + $280,000 + $90,000 + $118,000
= $1,288,000
The above is a large sum of money to raise only from donations, and by right a level or various levels of government should help pay for these expenses as no one go homeless either that or provide low cost homes for the homeless.
