If the interest rate in the United Kingdom is 8 percent, the interest rate in the United States is 10 percent, the spot exchange rate is $1.75/£1, and interest rate parity holds, what must be the one-year forward exchange rate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is $1.78 / £1

Explanation:

Solution

Given that

Interest rate of United kingdom = 8%

Interest rate of United States =10%

Spot exchange rate =$1.75£1

The next step is to find the one year forward rate of exchange

Thus

Forward Rate = S₀ * [ ( 1 + Rus) / ( 1 + RE) ]

=$ 1.75 * ( ( 1 + 10%) / ( 1 + 8%) )

$1.78

Therefore, the forward exchange rate is $ 1.78 / £1

Answers

Answer:

Assets turnover ratio= 1.64 times

Explanation:

The asset turnover is the he amount of sales generated by one dollar invested in asset. it measures how efficient the business is in generating sales using assets

Assets turnover ratio = net sales / Average assets

Asset at the beginning of year 2016

=26,000  + 56,000 +    79,000 +     8,000  + 180,000 = 349 ,000

Asset at the end of year 2016

$28,000  + 58,000 +    76,000  +  14,000 +  11,000= 187 ,000

Average assets = Opening value of asset+ closing value of assets/2

= 349 ,000 + 187 ,000= 268 ,000

Assets turnover ratio = net sales / Average assets

=440000/268,000= 1.64 times

Assets turnover ratio= 1.64 times

Assume the following cost of goods sold data for a company: 2018$1417000 20171204000 20161018000 If 2016 is the base year, what is the percentage increase in cost of goods sold from 2016 to 2018

Answers

Answer:

39.19%

Explanation:

2018              $1,417,000

2017              $1,204,000

2016              $1,018,000

if 2016 was the base year, then the % from 2016 to 2018 = ($1,417,000 - $1,018,000) / $1,018,100 = 39.19%

we can also calculate the % increase from 2016 - 2017 and from 2017 - 2018 in a similar manner:

2016 to 2017 increase = ($1,204,000 - $1,018,000) / $1,018,100 = 18.27%

2017 to 2018 increase = ($1,417,000 - $1,204,000) / $1,204,100 = 17.69%

An investor is considering the purchase of a residential rental property that has an asking price of $400,000. The property has four rental units that are expected to rent for $1,200 each per month. Operating expenses and vacancy allowances are expected to be 45% of gross income. An 5% interest only mortgage loan is available for 5 years at 100% of the purchase price. How much cash income will the investor receive each month of the first year after paying the monthly mortgage payment

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $973

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

A residential rental property asking price = $400,000

Property expected to rent = $1200

Operating expenses expected = 45%

Interest =5%

Mortgage loan available for =5 years

Purchase price =100%

Now, we find out the cash income the investor receive each month of the first year after paying the monthly mortgage payment

Thus

Rental income (1200*4 units)=$4800

Less: operating expenses (4800*45%)=$2160

The Net income per month=$2640

So,

Less:Monthly mortgage interest payment=$1667 [(400000*5%)

=20000/12=1667]

The Cash income =$973

Therefore the investor will receive $973 each month of the first year.

A package delivery service uses vans and employees to deliver the maximum number of packages given a fixed budget. The last van added 600 packages to total output, while the last employee added 500 packages. If vans cost exist400 per week and employees earn exist300 per firm:________.
a. could deliver more packages with the same budget by using more employees and fewer Vans
b. could deliver more packages the same budget by using more vans and fewer with employees
c. use more vans and fewer employees because the last dollars spent on vans added more to total output than the last dollar spent on employees
d. is delivering the maximum number of packages given the fixed budget
e. both b and c

Answers

Answer: e. both b and c

Explanation:

Van delivered 600 per week and cost $400.

The cost per package for the Van is;

= 600/400

= $1.5 per package

Employees delivered 500 and cost $300 which means the cost per package is;

= 500/300

= $1.67 per package.

The results show that it costs more to deliver with Employees ($1.67) than with the Vans ($1.5). Using more Vans will therefore allow for more packages to be delivered using a fixed budget as the last dollar spent on Vans gave more output than the last dollar spent on Employees.

In Ricci v. DeStefano, Ricci, a white firefighter, took and passed the City of New Haven firefighter's test, required of all applicants for promotion in the city's fire department. The test was thrown out when it was discovered that minorities scored poorly and the city feared a disparate impact-based lawsuit. How did the court rule?
A) An employer may not simply disregard a test based on unwanted results unless the test is shown to be biased or deficient.
B) Even though the test was prepared by a professional testing organization, the city has the right to reject the test results if minorities do not score adequately
C) Deliberately oversampling minorities to seek to create a fair test is irrelevant if the test results show that minorities still scored poorly
D) Ricci, as a member of the white majority, had no grounds to sue when the city was seeking the legitimate aim of nondiscrimination

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is A. In Ricci v. DeStefano, the Supreme Court ruled that an employer may not simply disregard a test based on unwanted results unless the test is shown to be biased or deficient.

Explanation:

Ricci v. DeStefano is a Supreme Court ruling of 2009, after a lawsuit by nineteen firefighters who claimed to have been discriminated against in terms of career development.  They denounced that they had been discriminated after having passed the admission tests and still had not been promoted, since no African-American candidate had passed the tests. They also denounced that they had not been promoted because the Fire Department did not want to promote a group of new recruits without including within it any member of racial minorities.

Finally, the Supreme Court established that said procedure violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, since in the case equal access to employment was not guaranteed (in this case, favoring minorities over white firefighters), for set different demands for purely racial reasons.

a. the demand for product A is likely to have a low price elasticity

b. product A and B are subtitutes

c. products A and B are complements

d. the demand for product B is likely to have a low price elasticity

2. Fast food is believed to be an inferior good. This means that:

a. the quantity of fast food consumed decreases as income increases

b. the income elasticity of demand for fast food is positive

c. The quantity of fast food consumed will always be high

d. fast food is really not quality food

Answers

Answer:

b. product A and B are subtitutes

a. the quantity of fast food consumed decreases as income increases

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.

Cross price elasticity = percentage change in quantity demanded of good A / percentage change in price of good B.

The cross price elasticity of substitute goods are always positive because if the price of good B increases, the Quanitity demanded of good A rises.

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.

Complement goods are goods that are used together. E.g. car and gas

Inferior goods are goods whose demand increases when income falls and whose demand falls when income rises.

From the question, Linea, who is an employee of Hard Labor Industries (HLI), is injured in a work-related accident and based on the diagnosis of Newt, who is a doctor, Linea accepts $50,000 from HLI and waives the right to future claims.

We are also informed that Newt's diagnosis later proves to have been wrong. In terms of the impact on Linea's agreement with HLI, Newt's mis-diagnosis is to set aside the settlement with HLI.

This will be necessary to make them understand that it was a mistake and make a settlement with Hard Labor Industries so that Linea won't be affected as they make think she has it planned in order to collect money from them so the hospital should make a settlement.

The firm's tax for the year was $113,900. e. None of the above

Answers

Answer:

e. None of the above

Explanation:

total revenue $980,000

- operating costs $196,000

- depreciation $50,000

- interests $95,000

income $639,000

+ dividends from outside corporation = $8,000 x (1 - 80% DRD) = $1,600

total taxable income = $639,000 + $1,600 = $640,600

current corporate tax is 21%, so the company's marginal tax rate would be 21%

income taxes for the year = $640,600 x 21% = $134,526

the company's after tax income = $640,600 - $134,526 = $506,074

Cumlative Non Cumlativepreferred Dividends for 2018 preferred Dividends in arrears for 2017 Remaining Dividends to common stockholders Total Dividens:

Answers

Answer:

1.

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $20000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $2000

2.

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $10000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 =  $12000

Explanation:

The preferred stock dividends are always paid before the common stock dividends.

Cumulative preferred stock is the stock which accumulates or accrues dividends if the dividends are partially paid or not paid at all in a particular year. These dividends are accrued and are required to be paid by the company whenever it declares dividends.

Non cumulative preferred stock does not accrue or accumulates dividends. Thus, if dividends are not paid in a particular year, the company has no obligation to pay these dividends ever in the future.

1.

If the preferred stock is assumed to be cumulative, then the dividends in arrears for 2017 will be paid in 2018 along with dividends for 2018 on preferred stock before paying the common stock holders.

Preferred stock dividend per year = 2000 * 100 * 0.05  

Preferred stock dividend per year = $10000

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 10000 + 10000 = $20000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 22000 - 20000 = $2000

2.

If the preferred stock is assumed to be non cumulative, then the dividends in arrears for 2017 will not be paid in 2018. Only the dividends for 2018 on preferred stock will be paid before paying the common stock holders.

Preferred stock dividend per year = 2000 * 100 * 0.05  

Preferred stock dividend per year = $10000

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $10000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 22000 - 10000 = $12000

Oriole Company had sales of $392000, variable costs of $192000, and direct fixed costs totaling $97000. The company’s operating assets total $809000, and its required return is 10%. How much is the residual income?

Answers

Answer:

Residual Income = $ 22,100

Explanation:

Residual income is the excess of the controllable profit over the opportunity cost of capital invested.

It is computed as follows:

Residual income = Controllable profit - (cost of capital× operating assets)

Controllable profit = 392,000 - 192,000- 97,000 = $103,000

Residual income =  103,000 - (10%× 809,000)= 22,100

Residual Income = $ 22,100

If a company uses a predetermined rate for absorbing manufacturing overhead, the volume variance is the: Group of answer choices a. Underapplied or overapplied variable cost element of overhead. b. Underapplied or overapplied fixed cost element of overhead. c. Difference in budgeted costs and actual costs of fixed overhead items. d. Difference in budgeted costs and actual costs of variable overhead items.

Answers

Answer: c. Difference in budgeted costs and actual costs of fixed overhead items.

Explanation:

If a company uses a Predetermined rate for Manufacturing Overhead this means that they have budgeted a certain cost of overhead that they believe will be sufficient for production. This is usually possible for fixed overhead items.

The Variance therefore would be the difference between this budgeted figure and the actual figure for the fixed Overhead items.

A business received an offer from an exporter for 10,000 units of product at $13.50 per unit. The acceptance of the offer will not affect normal production or domestic sales prices. The following data are available: Domestic unit sales price $21 Unit manufacturing costs: Variable 12 Fixed 5 What is the amount of the gain or loss from acceptance of the offer

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= $15,000 increase

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A business received an offer from an exporter for 10,000 units for $13.50 per unit.

Unit manufacturing costs:

Variable 12

Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.

Effect on income= number of units*unitary contribution margin

Effect on income= 10,000*(13.5 - 12)

Effect on income= $15,000 increase

Hubert: Demand decreased, but it was perfectly inelastic. Kate: Demand decreased, but supply was perfectly inelastic. Manuel: Demand decreased, but supply increased at the same time.

Answers

The complete part of the question.

The price of coffee fell sharply last month, while the quantity sold remained the same. Five people suggest various explanations

Answer:

Kate, Manuel and Poornima

Explanation:

Given that, the price of coffee fell but the quantity sold remained the same.

1. Hubert: Demand decreased, but it was perfectly inelastic.

If an elastic demand shifts the demand curve will move to the left. This would cause both prices as well as quantity to decline. So HUBERT's statement is not correct.

2. Kate: Demand decreased, but supply was perfectly inelastic.

This can be true, because of the inelastic supply curve. If the supply curve is an inelastic vertical line then a fall in demand will not affect quantity while the price will fall. So, KATE's statement can be right.

3. Manuel: Demand decreased, but supply increased at the same time.

If there is a decrease in the demand curve, it will shift to the left. Now, if there is an increase in the supply by the same amount the price will fall but quantity will remain the same. So, MANUEL's statement is right.

4. Poornima: Supply increased, but demand was perfectly inelastic.

Here, the rightward shift in the supply curve will cause the price to fall but quantity will remain the same. So, POORNIMA's statement is right.

5. Shen: Supply increased, but demand was unit elastic.

if the demand curve is unitary elastic, an increase in supply will cause the price to fall and quantity to increase. So, SHEN's statement is not correct.

A government has the following liabilities at the end of the year: General obligation bonds Compensated absences Salaries payable $1,500,00 120,000 40,000 What amount of liabilities should be reported in the governmental activities column of the government-wide statement of net position

Answers

Answer:

What should be reported is $1660000

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Thus

General obligation bonds=$1,500000

Compensated absences=$120,000

Total liabilities in the governmental activities column=$1660000

Therefore, the amount $1660000 should be reported in the governmental activities column of the government-wide statement of net position.

The receiving department has three activities: unloading, counting goods, and inspecting. Unloading uses a forklift that is leased for $15,000 per year. The forklift is used only for unloading. The fuel for the forklift is $3,600 per year. Other operating costs (maintenance) for the forklift total $1,500 per year. Inspection uses some special testing equipment that has depreciation of $1,200 per year and an operating cost of $750. Receiving has three employees who have an average salary of $50,000 per year. The work distribution matrix for the receiving personnel is as follows:
Activity Percentage of Time on Each Activity
Unloading 40%
Counting 25
Inspecting 35
No other resources are used for these activities.
Required:
Calculate the cost of each activity.
Unloading $
Counting $
Inspecting $

Answers

Answer:

Calculating the cost of each activity,

Unloading = $ 80,100

Counting = $ 37,500

Inspecting = $54,450

Explanation:

Given:

Unloading lease = $15,000 per year

Fuel for the forklift = $3,600 per year

Maintenance for the forklift = $1,500 per year

Inspection uses some special testing equipment that has depreciation of $1,200 per year

Operating cost = $750.

Receiving employees average salary = $50,000 per year

Salaries; 3 × 50,000 = 150,000

Unloading salary = 40%  × 150,000 = 60,000

Counting salary = 25%  × 150,000 = 37,500

Inspecting salary = 35% × 150,000 = 52,500

Sexton Corp. has current liabilities of $510,000, a quick ratio of .93, inventory turnover of 6.9, and a current ratio of 1.5. What is the cost of goods sold for the company?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of goods sold for the company is $2,005,830.

Explanation:

This can be calculated from the available information using the following steps:

Step 1: Calculation of Current Assets

To do this, we use the current ratio formula as follows:

Current ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

Substituting the values in the question into the equation above and solve for Current Assets, we have:

1.5 = Current Assets / $510,000

Current Assets = $510,000 * 1.5 = $765,000

Step 2: Calculation of Inventory

To do this, we use the Quick Ratio formula as follows:

Quick ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities

Substituting the values in the question and from Step 1 into the equation above and solve for Inventory, we have:

0.93 = ($765,000 - Inventory) / $510,000

0.93 * $510,000 = $765,000 - Inventory

$474,300 = $765,000 - Inventory

$474,300 + Inventory = $765,000

Inventory = $765,000 - 474,300 = $290,700

Note that this inventory of $290,700 is the ending inventory.

Step 3: Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold

To do this, we use the Inventory Turnover formula as follows:

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / Average Inventory

Note that average Average Inventory is the addition of the beginning and closing inventory divided by 2. But since the beginning inventory is not available, the practice is to use the ending inventory in place of the average inventory. This is what we do here below.

Substituting the values in the question and from Step 2 into the equation above and solve for Cost of goods sold, we have:

6.9 = Cost of goods sold / $290,700

Cost of goods sold = 6.9 * $290,7000 = $2,005,830

Therefore, the cost of goods sold for the company is $2,005,830.

Ordinary business Expenses are the expenses generally accepted according to the  industry standards associated with running of a business.

Here, the ordinary business expenses for Zoom  include

cost of good sold= $19,-000

employee wages= $17,000

rent expense = $11,500 and therefore will be deducted from its sales revenue.

charitable contributions and qualified dividends, do not cut across all industries and so are not classified under Ordinary Buisness expences.

Ordinary Business income loss = Sales revenue - cost of good sold, -employee wages- rent expense.

Assume a​ Cobb-Douglas production function of the​ form: q equals 10 Upper L Superscript 0.33 Baseline Upper K Superscript 0.75. What type of returns to scaleLOADING... does this production function​ exhibit?

Answers

Answer:

Since 0.33 + 0.75 = 1.08 is greater than one, this production function therefore exhibits increasing returns to scale.

Explanation:

From the question, we have the following restated equation:

[tex]q=10L^{0.33} K^{0.75}[/tex]

Where q is the output, and L and K are inputs

To determine the types of returns to scale, we increase each of L and K inputs by constant amount c as follows:

[tex]q = 10(cL)^{0.33}(cK)^{0.75}[/tex]

We can now solve as follows;

[tex]q = 10c^{0.33+0.75} L^{0.33}K^{0.75}[/tex]

[tex]q=c^{1.08} L^{0.33} K^{0.75}[/tex]

Since 0.33 + 0.75 = 1.08 is greater than one, this production function therefore exhibits increasing returns to scale.

Any boxes left with a question mark will be automatically graded as incorrect.)

Answers

Answer: a. To ensure assets and liabilities are reported at appropriate amounts.

b. To ensure the related revenues and expenses are reported in the proper period.

Explanation:

Adjustments must be made at the end of the period to make sure that the figures in the books are the proper and true reflection of the transactions that took place. That way records are neither overstated or understated thereby giving the users of the Accounting records a proper and accurate opportunity to assess the company's financial standing.

Records must also be adjusted to abide by the Accrual basis in accounting which posits that revenues and expenses should be recorded only in the periods when they occured regardless of if money has been received or paid for them. This way it is easier to match Expenses as well as Revenue to their respective periods.  

Which of the following is a community lifeline

Answers

Answer:

Safety and security

food, water, and shelter

health and medical

power and fuel

communications and transport

Explanation:

A lifeline allows business and government structures to continue to operate and is beneficial to human health and financial stability. Lifelines are perhaps the most important resources in the community that allow all other facets of society to work when balanced. The interconnected network of resources, services, and securities ( food, water, and shelter, medical care, communications facilities, etc) that provide lifeline services is used on a daily basis to facilitate the community's regularly occurring needs and give all other elements of society to perform efficiently.

Communications are the Community's lifeline. Safety and security, health and medical care, communications, hazardous materials, food, water, shelter, energy (power & fuel), and transportation are the seven community lifelines that FEMA has defined. Thus, option C is correct.

The Community Lifelines idea from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is a framework for event management that gives emergency managers a reporting system to swiftly stabilize a community after a disaster.

Safety and security, health and medical care, communications, hazardous materials, food, water, shelter, energy (power & fuel), and transportation are the seven community lifelines that FEMA has defined. It is a sign that lives are in danger, and daily routines and food chains are disturbed, if any of these Lifelines go down due to a disaster or emergency.

Answers

Answer:

a. .938 If the exchange rate is less than this, it costs more dollars to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in the Euro area.

Explanation:

We can see in the example that the Euro is cheaper than the dollar in purchasing-power parity. More specifically, the exchange rate is .938 euros per dollar.

This is why it is more expensive to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in Europe. The Euro is cheaper.

More burden of tax should fall on the consumers because their demand is inelastic. So, if prices rise as a result of the tax, there would be little or no change in quantity demanded.

But in the case of suppliers, they are sensitive to price and a rise in price would cause quantity supplied to fall and revenue would fall.

I hope my answer helps you
