Answer:
The right response is "$11.91".
Explanation:
Dividend
= $3.85 per share
Required return
= 11.8%
Annual dividend
= 1.95
Now,
The price of share at the beginning of year 7 will be:
= [tex]\frac{Annual \ dividend}{Required \ return}[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
= [tex]\frac{1.95}{11.8 \ percent}[/tex]
= [tex]16.53[/tex] ($)
So,
The price of the stock today will be:
= [tex]Present \ value \ of \ all \ future \ dividend[/tex]
= [tex]3.85\times 0.894+16.53\times 0.512[/tex]
= [tex]3.4419+8.46336[/tex]
= [tex]11.91[/tex] ($)

Explanation:
Job specialization can be defined as a strategic process which typically involves the ability of employees working in an organization to develop specific skills, knowledge, great expertise or professionalism and experience to perform their duties, tasks or job functions effectively and efficiently.
In order to gain the requisite skills, expertise and knowledge for job specialization, it is very important for the employees to have undergone an extensive training and a good number of years in work experience.
The primary purpose of job specialization is to increase efficiency and productivity because the employees are able to specialize in the use of specific tools (equipments) to accomplish their tasks, as well as limit the level of error or mistakes in the production process.
In Business management, method analysis can be defined as the study of the detailed process for the performance of a job i.e how a job is done. Thus, method analysis gives a detailed report on the tasks involved in the performance of a job and how they are to be done.
Basically, methods analysis is particularly valuable when it is used on jobs that:
1. Are high in labor content.
2. Are done frequently.
3. Are unsafe, tiring, unpleasant, and/or noisy.
Ace Products has a bond issue outstanding with 15 years remaining to maturity, a coupon rate of 8% with semiannual payments of $40, and a par value of $1,000. The price of each bond in the issue is $1,196.00. The bond issue is callable in 5 years at a call price of $1,080. What is the bond's current yield
Answer:
6.69%
Explanation:
Price of Ace products bond issue = $1,196
Annual coupon payment = $80
Current yield = Annual coupon payment / Bond price
Current yield = $80/$1,196
Current yield = 0.0668896
Current yield = 6.69%
Casey transfers property with a tax basis of $2,640 and a fair market value of $7,000 to a corporation in exchange for stock with a fair market value of $5,100 and $835 in cash in a transaction that qualifies for deferral under section 351. The corporation assumed a liability of $1,065 on the property transferred. Casey also incurred selling expenses of $547. What is the amount realized by Casey in the exchange
Answer: $6453
Explanation:
The amount realized by Casey in the exchange will be calculated thus:
Fair market value of stock received = $5100
Add: Deferral = $835
Add: Assumed mortgage = $1065
Less: Selling expense = $547
Amount realized = $6453
Therefore, the amount realized by Casey in the exchange is $6453

Flint Corporation is subject to a corporate income tax only in State X. The starting point in computing X taxable income is Federal taxable income which is $750,000. This amount includes a $50,000 deduction for state income taxes. During the year, Flint received $10,000 interest on Federal obligations. X tax law does not allow a deduction for state income tax payments. Flint’s taxable income for X purposes is:_________
a. $800,000.
b. $790,000.
c. $810,000.
d. $750,000.
Answer:
b. $790,000.
Explanation:
The computation of the taxable income for X purpose is shown below:
Federal Taxable income $750,000
Add: Deduction for state income taxes non-deductible $50,000
Less: Interest on federal obligations i.e. deductible $10,000
Taxable income $790,000
Hence, option b is correct
A callable bond:
A. Is generally call protected during the entire term of the bond issue,
B. generally will have a call protection period during the final three years prior to maturity.
C. may be structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call.
D. is prohibited from having a sinking fund also.
E. Is frequently called at a price that is less than par value
Answer:
C. may be structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call.
Explanation:
A callable bond is also called a redeemable bond. It a debt instrument that the issuer may decide to call or redeem before the maturity date.
This is used by bond issuers to have a cheaper cost of borrowing funds.
For example when interests are low the issuer can buy back his bonds at a lower cost this reducing his debt burden.
So callable bonds are structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call or redemption.

Answer:
See the errors identified below.
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
The following errors can be identified in the accountant's adjusting entries:
1.The accountant debited the account receivable for $5,000 (i.e. $23,250 - $18,250 = $5,000) without crediting laundry revenue.
Therefore, we should have:
Correct amount of laundry revenue = Laundry revenue in trial balance + (Adjusted account receivable - Unadjusted account receivable) = $182,100 + ($23,250 - $18,250) = $187100
2. The accountant debited laundry suppliers expense instead of crediting laundry suppliers for $3,000.
3. The the accountant credited Prepaid insurance for $3,600 (i.e. $5,200 - $1,600 = $3,600). However, the insurance expense was debited for $600.
4. Instead of crediting accumulated depreciation, the laundry equipment for depreciation expense was erroneously credited by the accountant for $13,000.
5. A debit of $1,000 to wages expense was not made by the accountant.
Additional Note:
After correcting the errors identified above, the correct adjusted trial balance will look as the one in the attached photo.
Cynthia, a sole proprietor, was engaged in a service business and reported her income on the cash basis. On February 1, 2013, she incorporates her business as Dove Corporation and transfers the assets of the business to the corporation in return for all of the stock in addition to the corporation’s assumption of her proprietorship’s liabilities. All of the receivables and the unpaid trade payables are transferred to the newly formed corporation. The balance sheet of the corporation immediately after its formation is as follows:

Discuss the tax consequences of the incorporation of the business to Cynthia and to Dove Corporation.
Answer:
Cynthia and Dove CorporationAny profits generated by Dove Corporation will be taxed to the corporation and also taxed to Cynthia as a shareholder whenever Dove distributes the profits as dividends. Taxing Dove and Cynthia creates a double taxation burden for both Dove and Cynthia. Dove Corporation does not get a tax deduction when it distributes dividends to Cynthia. Furthermore, Cynthia cannot deduct any corporation loss when incurred. These are unlike when the business was only a sole proprietorship.

An investment project has annual cash inflows of $4,300, $4,000, $5,200, and $4,400, for the next four years, respectively. The discount rate is 13 percent. a. What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $5,800? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $7,900? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) c. What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $10,900? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
1.64 years
2.27 years
3.13 years
Explanation:
Discounted payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative discounted cash flows
Present value of cash flow in year 1 = 4300 / 1.13 = 3805.31
Amount recovered in year 1 = -5800 + 3805.31 = -1994.69
Present value of cash flow in year 2 = 4000 / (1.13^2) = 3132.59
Amount recovered in year 2 =-1994.69 + 3132.59 = 1137.90
Payback period = 1 + 1994.69/3132.59 = 1.64 years
B
Present value of cash flow in year 1 = 4300 / 1.13 = 3805.31
Amount recovered in year 1 = -7900 + 3805.31 = -4094.69
Present value of cash flow in year 2 = 4000 / (1.13^2) = 3132.59
Amount recovered in year 2 = -4094.69 + 3132.59 = -962.10
Present value of cash flow in year 3 = 5200 / (1.13^3) = 3603.86
Amount recovered in year 3 = -962.10 + 3603.86 = 2641.76
Payback period = 2 years + -962.10 / 3603.86 = 2.27 years
C
Present value of cash flow in year 1 = 4300 / 1.13 = 3805.31
Amount recovered in year 1 = -10900 + 3805.31 = -7094.69
Present value of cash flow in year 2 = 4000 / (1.13^2) = 3132.59
Amount recovered in year 2 = -7094.69 + 3132.59 = -3962.10
Present value of cash flow in year 3 = 5200 / (1.13^3) = 3603.86
Amount recovered in year 3 = -3962.10 + 3603.86 = -358.24
Present value in year 4 = 4400 / (1.13^4) = 2698.60
Amount recovered in year 4 = -358.24 + 2698.60 = 2340.36
Payback period = 3 years + 358.24 + 2698.60 = 3.13 years

Revenue from Barbecue Division sales $ 528,000 Salaries for Barbecue Division workers (128,000 ) Direct material (342,000 ) Sunk costs (equipment depreciation) (82,000 ) Allocated company-wide facility-sustaining costs (64,000 ) Net loss $ (88,000 ) If the Division is eliminated, what is the total amount of avoidable cost?
Answer:
the total amount of avoidable cost is $470,000
Explanation:
The computation of the total amount of avoidable cost is shown below:
= Salaries for Barbecue Division workers + direct materials
= $128,000 + $342,000
= $470,000
Hence, the total amount of avoidable cost is $470,000

Your family business produces a secret recipe salsa and distributes it through both smaller specialty stores and chain supermarkets. The chains have been demanding sizable discounts but you do not want to drop your prices to the specialty stores. When can you legally accommodate the chains without losing profits from the specialty stores
Answer:
We can make the chain supermarkets buy goods in bulk.
Explanation:
In the given scenario the chain supermarkets have been demanding heavy discounts on goods that you are selling to them.
Also you do not want the eventual price to the speciality stores to drop.
The solution will be to sell products in bulk to the chain supermarkets. This will meet their demand for larger discounts as price per unit of product will be lower with bulk purchase.
Then the speciality stores can still buy in small quantities for higher price.
This will accommodate the requirements from both stores.
A truck was acquired on July 1, 2018, at a cost of $311,850. The truck had a six-year useful life and an estimated salvage value of $34,650. The straight-line method of depreciation was used.

High Point Hotel (HPH) has $165,000 in accounts receivable. To finance a major purchase, the company assigns these receivables to Cross Town Bank. Which one of the following statements correctly describes this transaction? HPH will immediately receive $165,000 and will have no further obligation related to these receivables. HPH will receive some amount of cash immediately while maintaining full responsibility for any uncollected receivables. Cross Town Bank accepts full responsibility for the collection of the accounts receivables and, in exchange, immediately pays HPH a discounted value for its receivables. Cross Town Bank accepts full responsibility for collecting the accounts receivables and pays HPH a discounted price for the accounts collected after the normal collection period has elapsed. HPH receives the full amount of its receivables upon assignment but must reimburse Cross Town Bank for any uncollected account
Answer: HPH will receive some amount of cash immediately while maintaining full responsibility for any uncollected receivables
Explanation:
Since High Point Hotel (HPH) has $165,000 in accounts receivable and the company assigns these receivables to Cross Town Bank in order to finance a major purchase, it simply implies that HPH will receive some amount of cash immediately while maintaining full responsibility for any uncollected receivables.
Other options given are incorrect as they don't describe the transaction.
A note payable was executed by Sterling Inc. to Miami Finance Company. Sterling Inc. used $768,000 of its accounts receivable as collateral for the loan. The contract provided that Miami would advance 85% of the gross amount of the receivables. Sterling Inc. continues to collect payments for the receivables and the cash from customers is then remitted to the finance company. The cash remitted is first applied to the finance charges, with the remainder applied to principal.
During the first month, customers owing $524,800 paid cash, less sales returns and allowances of $20,480, originally recorded as a refund liability. The finance charge at the end of the first month was $4,480. During the second month, the remaining receivables were collected in full, except for $5,120 off as uncollectible. Final settlement was effected with the finance company, including payment of an additional finance charge of $1,920.
Required:
a. Record the entry for Sterling to record the secured borrowing.
b. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections and (2) the payment to Miami for the first month.

Answer:
1. Variable Overhead Efficiency
= Standard rate * (Actual hours - Standard hours)
= 3 * ( 8,800 * 0.3 - 2,560)
= 3 * 80
= $240 Favorable
2. Materials Quantity Variance:
= Standard price * (Standard quantity - Actual quantity)
= 3 * (8,800 * 9.2 - 78,150)
= 3 * 2,810
= $8,430 favorable
3. Materials price variance:
= Standard cost of purchased materials -Actual cost of purchased materials
= (3 * 85,900) - 240,520
= $17,180 Favorable
4. Labor efficiency variance
= Standard labor rate * ( Actual hours worked - Standard labor hours)
= 17 * ( 2,560 - 8,800 * 0.3)
= 17 * 80
= $1,360 Favorable
5. Labor rate variance:
= (Standard rate * actual hours worked) - Actual labor cost
= 17 * 2,560 - 39,424
= $4,096 favorable
6. Variable Overhead rate variance:
= (Overhead rate * Actual hours) - Overhead cost
= (3 * 2,560) - 6,912
= $768 Favorable

29. Randolph is a 30 percent partner in the RD Partnership. On January 1, RD distributes $22,500 cash and inventory with a fair value of $56,000 (inside basis of $28,000) to Randolph in complete liquidation of his interest. RD has no liabilities at the date of the distribution. Randolph's basis in his RD Partnership interest is $53,625. What is the amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution
Answer: $3125 capital loss
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, we should note that RD Partnership distributes $22500 cash and inventory with inside basis of $28000.
Since Randolph's basis in his RD Partnership interest is $53,625, the amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution will be:
= ($22500 + $28000) - $53625
= $50500 - $53625
= -$3125
Therefore, there's a capital loss of $3125

Aliya and Samuel, managers from different departments at Finger Lakes Financial, are discussing the troubling behavior of an employee. Aliya says that it is the responsibility of high-level managers to take steps to prevent legal wrongdoing by punishing offenders. However, Samuel believes that every individual should take personal responsibility for his or her own behavior and that everyone needs to understand how to do the right thing. Samuel prefers a(n) ________ ethics program.
Answer:
Ethics Program
Samuel prefers a(n) ________ ethics program.
personal (individual) ethics program.
Explanation:
But such a personal ethics program cannot work in an organization. An organization is made up of persons from different backgrounds and orientations with differing work and personal ethics. An organizational ethics program cannot succeed by being dependent on personal scruples, as being suggested by Samuel. Every organization requires a company-wide ethics program that is equally applicable to all persons in the organization. The tone of such ethics program should be set at the top of the organization's hierarchy.
Your job pays you only once a year for all the work you did over the previous 12 months. Today, December 31, you just received your salary of $58,000 and you plan to spend all of it. However, you want to start saving for retirement beginning next year. You have decided that one year from today you will begin depositing 3 percent of your annual salary in an account that will earn 11 percent per year. Your salary will increase at 6 percent per year throughout your career.
Required: How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today?
Answer:
The amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.
Explanation:
This can be determined using the formula for calculating the future value of growing annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - (1 + g)^n) / (r - g)) ...................................... (1)
Where
FV = Future value or the amount on the date of retirement = ?
M = First annual deposit = Annual salary * Deposit percentage = $58,000 * 3% = $1,740
r = annual interest rate = 11%, or 0.11
g = salary growth rate = 6%, or 0.06
n = number of years = 40 years
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $1,740 * (((1 + 0.11)^40 - (1 + 0.06)^40) / (0.11 - 0.06))
FV = $1,740 * 1,094.30298736951
FV = $1,904,087.20
Therefore, the amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.
Assume that a state government currently provides no child-care subsidies to working single parents, but it now wants to adopt a plan that will encourage labor force participation among single parents. Suppose that child-care costs are hourly, and suppose the government adopts a child-care subsidy that pays $3 per hour for each hour the parent works, up to 8 hours per day. Draw a current budget constraint (net of child-care costs) for an assumed single mother and then draw in the new constraint. Discuss the likely effects on labor force participation and hours of work.
Answer:
The line on the graph will be parallel to the pre-subsidy line and the new constraint will then be equal to the points connecting the two lines.
Explanation:
The subsidy by government to single parents is $3 per hour for up to 8 hours. The total of subsidy will be $16 for each day. The labor force who were not receiving the subsidy before had steep indifference curve but now few workers will find utility maximization with flatter indifference curve so the workers will join the subsidy program.
