Answer:
2. False
Explanation:
The market for money is like the market for any other good: if demand is higher than supply, then, the price of money (the interest rate), will have to be lowered, so that money becomes cheaper and more abundant, and supply and demand become equal and reach equilibrium.
In this case, the centrla bank needs to lower the interest rates by buying bonds. When the central bank buys bonds, it prints more money that is put in the market, effectively increasing the supply of money, and lowering the interest rate in the meantime.

High fixed costs and low variable costs are typical of which approach? product process mass customization repetitive product and mass customization
Answer:
Product and mass customization.
Explanation:
In Financial accounting, fixed cost can be defined as predetermined expenses in a business that remain constant for a specific period of time regardless of the quantity of production or level of outputs. Some examples of fixed costs in business are loan payments, employee salary, depreciation, rent, insurance, lease, utilities etc.
On the other hand, variable costs can be defined as expenses that are not constant and as such usually change directly and are proportional to various changes in business activities. Some examples of variable costs are taxes, direct labor, sales commissions, raw materials, operational expenses etc.
High fixed costs and low variable costs are typical of product and mass customization.
Hence, the high fixed costs are usually a determinant for pricing a product that aren't produced in mass because to break even, businesses would need to rake in more revenues to meet the the increasing (high) fixed costs.
However, when this products are manufactured in mass, this would help to cut or lower down the total cost of production.
Magic Realm, Inc., has developed a new fantasy board game. The company sold 48,500 games last year at a selling price of $61 per game. Fixed expenses associated with the game total $873,000 per year, and variable expenses are $41 per game. Production of the game is entrusted to a printing contractor. Variable expenses consist mostly of payments to this contractor. Required: 1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year. 1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage. 2. Management is confident that the company can sell 60,625 games next year (an increase of 12,125 games, or 25%, over last year). Given this assumption: a. What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year? b. What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)
Answer:
1a.
Contribution format income statement for the game last year
Sales ( 48,500 games × $61) $2,958,500
Less Variable Expenses ( 48,500 games × $41) ($1,988,500)
Contribution $970,000
Less Fixed Costs ($873,000)
Net Income / (loss) $97,000
1b. 10.00
2a. 250%
2b. $339,500
Explanation:
Contribution Income Statement : Shows Separately the Variable Costs and Fixed Cost
Degree of operating leverage = Contribution / EBIT
= $970,000 / $97,000
= 10.00
Increase in net operating income = Degree of operating leverage × Percentage Increase in Sales
= 10.00 × 25%
= 250%
Expected amount of net operating income = Last Year`s net operating income × 3.5
= $97,000 × 3.5
= $339,500
Wilt's has earnings per share of $2.98 and dividends per share of $0.35. What is the firm's sustainable rate of growth if its return on assets is 14.6% and its return on equity is 18.2%?
Answer:
16.06%
Explanation:
According to the given situation the computation of sustainable rate of growth is shown below:-
Sustainable Growth Rate = Return on equity × (1 - Dividend payout ratio)
= 18.2% × ( 1 - 0.35 ÷ 2.98)
= 18.2% × ( 1 - 0.1174)
= 16.06%
Therefore for computing the sustainable rate of growth we simply applied the above formula.

Explanation:
The market value of a company is total value of a business. It is calculated by multiplying number of outstanding share with market value per share. This is also known as Market Capitalization. Cost of equity is the rate of return required by the equity holders of the company. The company decides its cost of equity based on the risk level of its business. The market price for Appscale will be:
Ke 12%
EPS $10
Market value is $120/share
(12% * $10 per share)
The capital accounts of Hawk and Martin have balances of $160,000 and $140,000, respectively, on January 1, the beginning of the current fiscal year. On April 10, Hawk invested an additional $10,000. During the year, Hawk and Martin withdrew $86,000 and $68,000, respectively, and net income for the year was $258,000. The articles of partnership make no reference to the division of net income. Based on this information, the statement of partners' equity would show what amount in the capital account for Martin on December 31?
Answer:
$213,000
Explanation:
We will figure out first Hawk's share of profit to reach the capital account is shown below:-
Hawk's share of profit = $258,000 ÷ 2
= $129,000
Capital account of Hawk as on December 31 = Opening Balance + Capital Introduced + Profit Share - Drawings
= $160,000 + $10,000 + $129,000 - $86,000
= $213,000

Medium of exchangeExplanation:
Money's four functions are:
Medium of exchange = you can use money to purchase or sells goods and services. Unit of account = money helps us to understand the relative value of goods and services, since the higher the price, the higher the value of a good or service is. Store of value = you can save money for future useStandard of deferred payment = money allows people to take or hand out loans that will be repaid in the futureGeorge's Chemicals allocates overhead based on machine hours. Selected data for the most recent year follow. Estimated manufacturing overhead cost $235,000 Actual manufacturing overhead cost $244,200 Estimated machine hours 20,300 Actual machine hours 22,700 The estimates were made as of the beginning of the year, while the actual results were for the entire year. The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per machine hour is closest to
Answer:
$11.58 per machine hour
Explanation:
Given that: Estimated Manufacturing overhead cost =$235,000, Actual manufacturing overhead cost = $244,200 Estimated machine hours = 20,300, Actual machine hours= 22,700
The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per machine hour = Estimated manufacturing overhead cost / Estimated machine hours
= $235,000 / 20,300
= $11.5763
= $11.58 per machine hour
2014 ending inventory was overstated by $25,000, but it was too late to correct the financial statements. Which of the following describes the effect of the inventory error on the 2014 financial statements?A. Net income and stockholders' equity are both understated.
B. Net income is understated and stockholders' equity is correct.
C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
D. Net income and stockholders' equity are both unaffected.
Answer:
C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
Explanation:
In the income statement , ending inventory is deducted from the addition of the beginning inventory and net purchases to arrive at the cost of goods sold. Therefore, the cost of goods can be stated as an equation stated as follows:
Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + Net purchases - Ending inventory
From the above equation, it can be observed that if the ending inventory is overstated, cost of goods sold will be understated by that amount.
Since gross income is determined by deducting cost of goods sold from the net sales, an understated cost of goods sold will result in an overstated gross income and subsequently overstated net income.
Since net income is one of the components of the stockholders' equity, an overstated net income will leads to an overstated stockholders' equity.
Therefore, the correct option is C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
A North Face retail store in Chicago sells 500 jackets each month. Each jacket costs the store $100 and the company has an annual holding cost of 25 percent. The fixed cost of a replenishment order (including transportation cost) is $100. The store currently places a replenishment order for Q.
1. What is the annual holding and ordering cost?
2. On average, how long does a jacket spend in inventory?
3. If the retail store wants to minimize ordering and holding cost, what order size do you recommend?
4. How much would the optimal order reduce holding and ordering cost relative to the current policy?
Answer:
(1) The annual holding cost is =$6250, The ordering costs is = 500 units
(2) The total cost is = $7450
(3)224 unit
(4) $1,864.30
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The annual demand = 520 units * 12
= 6,240 units
The cost per order = $100 per order
The Carrying Cost = 0.25% * $100
= 25 per unit per year
Thus
(1) The Ordering quantity = 500 units every month
The annual holding cost =0.5*quantity ordered*holding cost
The Annual Holding cost = 0.5*500*25
Annual Holding cost =$6250
(2) The ordering (Annual)cost = number of orders *cost per order
Annual ordering cost =(500*12/500)*100
Annual ordering cost =$1200
Total cost = 6250+1200=7450
(3)Thus
EOQ=(2*D*S/h)^0.5
EOQ=(2*6240*100/25^)0.5
EOQ=223.43
=224 unit
(4)The ordering cost =(6240/224)*100=2785.70
Holding cost=0.5*224*25
=2800
Total cost= 2785.70+2800
Total cost=5585.70
Total savings = 7450 - 5585.70
= $1,864.30
At the beginning of the year, Ann and Becky own equally all of the stock of Whitman, Inc., an S corporation. Whitman generates a $120,000 loss for the year. On the 189th day of the year, Ann sells her half of the Whitman stock to her son, Scott. Becky's stock basis is $41,300. How much of the Whitman loss belongs to Ann and Becky
Answer:
Becky's loss = $60,000
Ann's loss = $31,068
Explanation:
Assuming a 365 day year, the loss allocation should be as follows:
Ann (then Scott) 50% x $120,000 = $60,000Becky 50% x $120,000 = $60,000From the 50% that corresponds to Ann:
Ann = 189/365 x $60,000 = $31,068.49 = $31,068Scott = $60,000 - $31,068 = $28,932A stock just paid a dividend of $3. The stock is expected to increase its dividend payment by 30% per year for the next 3 years. After that, dividends will grow at a rate of 8% forever. If the required rate of return is 10%, what is the price of the stock today?
Answer:
Price of stock today = $334.56
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.
This model would be applied as follows:
Year Present Value ( PV)
1 3 × 1.3 × 1.1^(-1) = 3.5454
2 3 × 1.3^2 × 1.1^(-2) = 4.1900
3 3 × 1.3^3 × 1.1^(-3) = 4.9519
Total 12.6874
Year 4 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
Step 1
D× (1+g)/k-g
3 × 1.3^4/(0.1-0.08)
=428.415
Step 2
Present Value in year 0
=428.415 × 1.1^(-3) = 321.87
Total present value = 12.6874 + 321.87 = 334.56
Price of stock today = $334.56

Assume that demand increases from D1to D2; in the new long run equilibrium, price settles at a level between P1and P2This means that the industry in question is a(n) __________-cost industry.a. decreasingb. increasingc. constantd. marginale. low
Answer:
The answer is B. Increasing
Explanation:
An increasing-cost industry is an industry whose costs for production increase as more companies compete.
Why is this so? - This is because each new company in the industry increases its demand for supplies and factors needed for production.
A decreasing‐cost industry is one where costs of production reduces as the industry expands.
Examples of cash equivalents include all of the following except:
a. U.S. Treasury bills.
b. notes issued by major corporations (referred to as commercial paper).
c. currency and coins.
d. long-term notes receivable.
Answer:
d. Long-term Notes Receivable.
Explanation:
Cash and cash equivalent are those financial instruments which can be converted into cash easily and within a short period of time. Cash and cash equivalent includes the treasury bills, commercial papers( notes issued by major corporation), bills, currencies and coins but it does not include the long term notes receivable.
All the equivalents are easy to convert to cash easily except the Long term notes receivables because it requires to wait for some long period before such note can be converted into money.
Assume that today is December 31, 2019, and that the following information applies to Abner Airlines: After-tax operating income [EBIT(1 - T)] for 2020 is expected to be $700 million. The depreciation expense for 2020 is expected to be $150 million. The capital expenditures for 2020 are expected to be $375 million. No change is expected in net operating working capital. The free cash flow is expected to grow at a constant rate of 7% per year. The required return on equity is 13%. The WACC is 11%. The firm has $199 million of non-operating assets. The market value of the company's debt is $3.534 billion. 120 million shares of stock are outstanding. Using the corporate valuation model approach, what should be the company's stock price today
Answer:
The company's stock price today should be $71.17 per share.
Explanation:
The corporate valuation model approach can be used to estimate this by using the following steps:
Step 1: Calculation of the free cash flow
Free cash flow is the cash a firm generates after accounting for capital expenditure. This can be estimated using the following formula:
Free Cash Flow (FCF) = After-tax operating income + Depreciation expenses - Capital expenditure
For this question, we therefore have:
Free Cash Flow (FCF) = $700 + $150 - $375 = $475 million
Step 2: Calculation of Value of operations (Vo)
Vo = FCF / (WACC - FCF growth rate) = 475 / (11% - 7%) = $11,875 million
Step 3: Calculation of the Firm value
Firm value = Vo + Non-operating assets = $11,875 + $199 = $12,074 million
Step 4: Calculation of value of equity
Value of equity = Firm value - Debt = $12,074 - $3,534 = $8,540 million
Note: The correct amount of debt is $3,534 not $3.540 as mistakenly given, may be due to typographical error, in the question.
Step 5: Calculation of stock price per share today
Stock price per share = Value of equity / Number of shares outstanding = $8,540 / 120 = $71.17 per share
Therefore, the company's stock price today should be $71.17 per share.

A client believes that XYZZY stock has topped out in price and is ready for a steep drop. What recommendation would give the customer the smallest profit if this occurs
Answer: Buy XYZZ stock and sell an XYZZ call
Explanation:
Since the buyer seems convinced that XYZZ stock has bottomed its price, he should purchase the stock since it has gotten to its cheapest Point.
And since he believes that XYZZ's price would rebound soon, He should exercise a little patience and not sell at a call option for XYZZ. Because if he attempts to sell at a call option then his earnings becomes very limited, since the price set at the call option would be very low.
My best advice would be for him to hold on to XYZZ stock for a while and allow for its price to rebound.
