An investor who was not as astute as he believed invested $264,500 into an account 12 years ago. Today, that account is worth $204,000. What was the annual rate of return on this account

Answers

Answer:

-19.061%

Explanation:

interest earned= principal x time x interest rate

Interest earned = $264,500 - $204,000 = $-60,500

$-60,500 = $264,500 x 12 x interest rate

interest rate = -0.19061 = -19.061%

You need to borrow money and you are considering two loans. The terms of the two loans are equivalent with the exception of the interest rates. Loan A offers a stated rate of 3.125% compounded monthly. Loan B offers a stated rate of 3.15% compounded semi-annually. What are the effective annual rates for the loans? Which one do you prefer

Answers

Answer:

For Loan A = 3.170%

For Loan B = 3.174%

Loan B has a higher effective annual rate.

Explanation:

The computation of effective annual rates for the loans is shown below:-

For Loan A

We will assume effective annual rate is a

Stated rate(r) = 3.125% compounded monthly

= Number of periods in an year n = 12

So,

(1 + a) = (1 + r ÷ n) × n

= a = (1+0.03125 ÷ 12) × 12 - 1

= 0.03170

or

= 3.170%

For Loan B

We will assume the effective annual rate is b

Stated rate (r) = 3.15% compounded semi annually

= Number of periods in an year n = 2

So

(1 + a) = (1 + r ÷ n) × n

= a = (1 + 0.0315 ÷ 2) × 2 - 1

= 0.03174

or

= 3.174%

From the above calculation we can see that Loan B, is greater than Loan A and has a higher effective annual rate.

Which of the following is an incorrect statement? a If individual audit risk remains the same, detection risk bears an inverse relationship to inherent and control risk. b The greater the inherent and control risk the auditor believes exist the less detection risk that can be accepted. c The auditor might make separate or combined assessments of inherent risk and control risk. d Detection risk cannot be changed at the auditor’s discretion.

Answers

Answer:

d Detection risk cannot be changed at the auditor’s discretion.

Explanation:

Audit risk can be defined as the risk that financial reports issued by an auditor are materially incorrect due to fraud or errors, despite the fact that the inappropriate audit opinion states that the financial reports are void of any material misstatements. There are two (2) main components of an audit risk, these are;

1. Detection risk: this deals with the fact that procedures used by the auditor will not detect any material misstatement as a result of errors.

2. Risk of material misstatement: this deals with the material misstatements of financial statements before auditing. There are two main types namely, inherent and control risks.

The following statements are true and correct;

A. If individual audit risk remains the same, detection risk bears an inverse relationship to inherent and control risk.

B.The greater the inherent and control risk the auditor believes exist the less detection risk that can be accepted.

C. The auditor might make separate or combined assessments of inherent risk and control risk.

However, saying that detection risk cannot be changed at the auditor’s discretion is false. Since it is arises as a result of error, if the auditor conducts a proper sampling procedure it can be detected and eventually changed.

Assume that the number of people affected by these external costs is large. If the government wishes to establish an optimal allocation of resources in this market, it should

Answers

Answer:

tax producers so that the market supply shift leftward (upward)

Explanation:

Since S is the market supply curve, and S1 is the supply curve composed of all the other costs of production even external costs.

We recognize that external costs are the expenses involved when such goods and services are generated by third parties (who were not a part of the transaction).

A company's output imposes higher external costs on the people and hence the people most affected by such external costs is large.

Therefore, if the government needs to launch an appropriate resource allocation wherein resources are efficiently allocated at least contribute, the producers should be taxed.

The costs of production rise whenever the producers are taxed, which reduces the quantity given.

This will upward shift the supply curve from S to S1 to the left.

C. Cash 960,000
Discount on Bonds Payable 40,000
Bonds Payable 1,000,000
D. Cash 960,000
Bonds Payable 960,000

Answers

Answer:

Option C is correct

Explanation:

The cash proceeds from the bond issuance is 96% of its face value i.e 96%*$1,000,000=$960,000

The discount on bonds payable=Face value-cash proceeds

The discount on  bonds payable=$1,000,000-$960,000=$40,000

The appropriate entries would be to credit bonds payable with $1000,000 while cash and discount on bonds payable are debited with $960,000 and $40,000 respectively

Oral Roberts Dental Supplies has annual sales of $5,625,000. 80% are on credit. The firm has $475,000 in accounts receivable. Compute the value of the average collection period.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 38 days

Explanation:

The average collection period is the number of days it takes a company to convert its credit sales to cash

Average collection period = (account receivables/average credit sales) x 360 days

Credit sales = 80% of $5,625,000

=0.8 x $5,625,000

=$4,500,000.

Average collection period is therefore,

($475,000/$4,500,000) x 360 days

=0.10555556 x 360days

=38 days

Sufra Corporation is planning to sell 150,000 units for $2.90 per unit and will break even at this level of sales. Fixed expenses will be $93,000. What are the company's variable expenses per unit

Answers

Answer:

$2.28

Explanation:

Breakeven point is the number of units produced and sold at which net income is equal to zero.

Breakeven = F / P - V

F = fixed

P = price

V = variable cost

150,000 = $93,000 / $2.90 - V

Multiply both sides of the equation by $2.90 - V

= ($2.90 - V)150,000 = $93,000

$435,000 - 150,000V = $93,000

V = $2.28

The cost of an asset is $ 1 comma 050 comma 000​, and its residual value is $ 130 comma 000. Estimated useful life of the asset is ten years. Calculate depreciation for the second year using the doubleminusdecliningminusbalance method of depreciation.​ (Do not round any intermediate​ calculations, and round your final answer to the nearest​ dollar.)

Answers

Answer:

$168,000

Explanation:

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life)

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/10) = 0.2

depreciation expense in year 1 = 0.2 x $1,050,000 =$210,000

book value at the beginning of year 2 = $1,050,000 - $210,000 = $840,000

depreciation expense in year 2 = 0.2 x $840,000 = $168,000

The equal total payments pattern for installment notes consists of changing amounts of interest but constant amounts of principal over the life of the note.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

The equal total payments pattern for installment notes is when the regular payments on an installment note are always for the same amount. However, the amounts of interest and principal change over the life of the note because at the begining, most of the payment amount goes toward the interest and as you make payments your principal starts to decrease making the amount that goes toward the interest to decrease and the money that goes towards the principal to increase. According to that, the statement is false.

b) 19.32% more than females
c) $19.32 per hour
d) $19, 320 more per year than females^2

Answers

Answer: b) 19.32% more than females

Explanation:

According to the model for calculating how wages are paid to employees, there is a .1932 coefficient attached to being a male employee. This means that 0.1932 (19.32% ) is added to an employees salary if they are males. This simply means that males are getting paid 19.32% more than other employees in the company which is this case are females.

Answers

Answer:

$15,391.91

Explanation:

the first step is to find the present value of the cash flows. After the future value of the sum would be determined.

present value is the sum of discounted cash flows.

present value can be determined using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $1500

Cash flow in year 1 = 0

Cash flow in year 2 = $1500

Cash flow in year 3 = 0

Cash flow in year 4 = $1500

Cash flow in year 5 = 0

Cash flow in year 6 = $1500

Cash flow in year 7 = 0

Cash flow in year 8 = $1500

I = 9%

PV = $5472.36

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r) n

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years  

$5472.36(1.09)^12 = $15,391.91

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

   Quick ratio for current year =2.05

b. Improving

Explanation:

A.

To find quick ratios we need to divide current assets by current liabilities

Quick Ratio = [tex]\frac{currentasssets}{currentliabilities}[/tex]

Current assets                         Dec 31 current year      Dec 31 previous year

Cash                                                  $1,430                                $1,710

Temporary investment                    $3,120                               $3,840

Accounts receivable                        $7,150                               $2,610

Inventory                                         $2,340                                $2,300

Total current assets                      $14,040                              $10,460

Current liability                              

Account payable                            $6,500                                $5,100

Quick Ratio                                     [tex]\frac{14040}{6500 }[/tex]                                 [tex]\frac{10460}{5100}[/tex]

Quick Ratio                                      2.16                                  2.05

                         

B.

As you can see above that in the previous year Nabors company had a quick ratio of 2.05 but it has slightly increased by 0.11 in the current year.  

Answer:

Quick Ratio for the current year = 3.78

Quick Ratio for the previous year = 1.6

Explanation:

Nabors Company

                               Dec. 31, Current Year         Dec. 31, Previous Year

Cash                                    $1,430                                      $1,710

Temporary investments      3,120                                     3,840

Accounts receivable            7,150                                   2,610

Inventory                              2,340                                  2,300

Accounts payable               6,500                                   5,100

Quick Ratio = Cash + Cash Equivalents + Accounts Receivables/ Accounts Payables

Quick Ratio for the current year = $ 1430+ 3120 + 7150/ 6500

                                                      = 24570/6500=  3.78

Quick Ratio for the previous year = $ 1710+ 3840 + 2610/ 5100

                                                      = 8160/5100=  1.6

A quick ratio less than 1.0 means that the current liabilities exceed the quick assets.  a rule of thumb the quick ratio must have a value greater than 1.0 to conclude that the company is unlikely to face near term liquidity problems. . A value less than 1.0 raises the liquidity concerns unless the a company can generate enough cash from inventory sales or if much of its liabilities are not due until late in the next period.

Similarly a value greater than 1.0 can hide a liquidity problem if payable are due shortly and receivables are not collected late until next period.

It is improving.

The Physical Inventory Worksheet is used when: Multiple Choice inventory items are physically placed in the warehouse All of the choices are correct the computer system goes down taking a physical count of inventory on hand

Answers

Answer:

taking a physical count of inventory on hand

Explanation:

The Physical Inventory Worksheet is used when taking a physical count of inventory on hand. This is the only way to tell how many items are really available for sale and allows a business to do it efficiently. An example would be counting the number of steaks the restaurant has on hand on a Saturday afternoon. This also allows the business to analyze the expected sales with the actual inventory in order to determine whether or not they need more.

Assume that there is an autonomous increase in investment spending of $20 billion and the MPC is given as 0.4, and assuming taxes, imports, and savings are all equal and no leakages:

Answers

Answer:

a. 1.67

b. $33.4 billion

c. A larger MPC

Explanation:

a. The Spending Multiplier is used to calculate how much an Economy increases as a result of an extra dollar being put into it and can be calculated by using the following formula;

= 1 / ( 1 - MPC)

= 1/ ( 1 - 0.4

= 1.67

b. Total Change in GDP = Amount invested * Spending Multiplier

= 20 * 1.67

= $33.4 billion.

c. An Economy is helped when it's GDP increases. A higher Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC) will help it more in that case because from the formula, a larger MPC would reduce the divisor of 1 resulting in a larger Spending Multiplier which will increase the GDP more per dollar.

To explain further, the MPC measures how much of an extra dollar that people in the Economy spend, if the MPC is higher it means they spend more which will contribute to a rise in Consumption which is part of GDP.
