Answer:
obey his or her employer's lawful orders concerning the employment.
Explanation:
As there are several duties owed by employers to their employees, so do we have duties that must be performed by employees to their employers. Example of such duty is employee must obey his or her employer's lawful orders concerning the employment terms.
Other duties or obligations included in the employment terms that must be carried out by an employee are; serve faithfully, account for all money or property received, cooperate with the employer, perform duties with proper care and diligence , otherwise may be sued the employer . There are also duties owed by an employee to an employer even though such are not mentioned in the contract terms, i.e duty to be honest, to do what is deemed reasonable by an employee in any situation, not to disclose employer's confidential information etc.
Change all of the numbers in the data area of your worksheet so that it looks like this:
Data
4 Unit sales 10,000 units
5 Selling price per unit $20 per unit
6 Variable expenses per unit $8 per unit
7 Fixed expenses $90,000
A) What is the break-even in dollar sales?
B) What is the margin of safety percentage?
C) What is the degree of operating leverage?
1. Using the degree of operating leverage and without changing anything in your worksheet, calculate the percentage change in net operating income if unit sales increase by 20%.
2. Confirm your calculations in Requirement 3 above by increasing the unit sales in your worksheet by 20% so that the Data area looks like this:
Data
4 Unit sales 12,000 units
5 Selling price per unit $20 per unit
6 Variable expenses per unit $8 per unit
7 Fixed expenses $90,000
1. Using the degree of operating leverage and without changing anything in your worksheet, calculate the percentage change in net operating income if unit sales increase by 20%.
2. Confirm your calculations in Requirement 3 above by increasing the unit sales in your worksheet by 20% so that the Data area looks like this:
A. What is net operating income?
B. By what percentage did the net operating income increase?
Answer:
A) What is the break-even in dollar sales?
$150,000B) What is the margin of safety percentage?
25%C) What is the degree of operating leverage?
41. Using the degree of operating leverage and without changing anything in your worksheet, calculate the percentage change in net operating income if unit sales increase by 20%.
if unit sales increase by 20%, then profits should increase by 80%2. Confirm your calculations in Requirement 3 above by increasing the unit sales in your worksheet by 20%
A. What is net operating income?
(10,000 x 1.2 x $20) - (10,000 x 1.2 x $8) - $90,000 = $240,000 - $96,000 - $90,000 = $54,000B. By what percentage did the net operating income increase?
net operating income increased from $30,000 to $54,000 (an 80% increase)Explanation:
selling price $20
variable costs $8
contribution margin $12
break even point = $90,000 / $12 = 7,500 x $20 = $150,000
margin of safety = (current sales - break even) / current sales = $50,000 / $200,000 = 25%
degree of operating leverage = (quantity x contribution margin) / [(quantity x contribution margin) - fixed costs] = (10,000 x $12) / ($120,000 - $90,000) = $120,000 / $30,000 = 4
or contribution margin / net profits = $120,000 / $30,00 = 4
April 5 $10 April 10 $12 April 15 $14 April 20 $16 April 22 $17 One unit is sold on April 25. The company uses the weighted average inventory costing method. Identify the cost of the ending inventory on the balance sheet. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: $55.20
Explanation:
The Weighted Average Cost method of valuing inventory averages the cost of the entire inventory in stock and then uses the resultant cost to value all of the inventory.
As it is an average, it works by adding up all the costs and dividing by the number of units.
1 unit of each good costing the prices listed were purchased so,
= $10 + $12 + $14 + $16 + $17
= $69
5 units were purchased so the average is,
= 69/5
= $13.80 is the cost per inventory unit.
One unit was sold on April 25
4 units therefore remain.
Cost of ending inventory is,
= 13.80 * 4
= $55.20
I have attached the complete question below.
The company has 15 employees, who earn a total of $1,960 in salaries each working day. They are paid each Monday for their work in the five-day workweek ending on the previous Friday. Assume that December 31, 2015, is a Tuesday, and all 15 employees worked the first two days of that week. Because New Year's Day is a paid holiday, they will be paid salaries for five full days on Monday, January 6, 2016. Use the information to prepare adjusting entries as of December 31, 2015.
Answer:
Preparation of the adjusting entries as of December 31, 2015.
Dr Salaries Expense 3,920
Cr Salaries Payable 3,920
Explanation:
Since we were been told in the question that all the 15 employees worked the first 2 days of that week, the Adjustment we therefore be $3,920( 1,960×2) . And the transaction will be recorded as:
Dr Salaries Expense 3,920
Cr Salaries Payable 3,920
The Adjustment will be :
1,960 x 2 = 3,920
Therefore the pay that occured in New Year's Day will not be used because it falls in the next year.

Explanation:
Bill Phillips is developing a Monte Carlo simulation to value a complex and thinly traded security. Phillips wants to model one input variable to have negative skewness and a second input variable to have positive excess kurtosis. In a Monte Carlo simulation, Phillips can appropriately use:_________
Answer: Both of them
Explanation:
The Monte Carlo Simulation is a forecasting technique that allows one to find out the probability of occurence of different outcomes which may be difficult to come up with because there are multiple random variables involved.
Monte Carlo simulations are used in many diverse fields such as Finance, Engineering and Science.
As earlier mentioned, this simulation allows for multiple random variables so Phillips can use it to model both the variables to have different characteristics.
Coronado Company had the following department information for the month: Total materials costs $55000 Equivalent units of materials 10000 Total conversion costs $81000 Equivalent units of conversion costs 15000 What is the total manufacturing cost per unit
Answer:
10.9 per unit
Explanation:
Total manufacturing cost per unit= Material cost per unit + Conversion cost per unit
Material Cost per Unit= Total materials cos / Equivalent units of materials
Material cost per unit = 55000 / 10000 = 5.5
Conversion cost per unit = Total conversion costs / Equivalent units of conversion costs
Conversion cost per unit = 81,000 / 15000 = 5.4
Hence, Total manufacturing cost per unit = 5.5 +5.4 = 10.9 per unit
You own a portfolio equally invested in a risk-free asset and two stocks (If one of the stocks has a beta of 0.66 and the total portfolio is equally as risky as the market, what must the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio? (Hint: Remember that the market has a Beta=1; also remember that equally invested means that each asset has the same weight- since there are 3 assets, each asset's weight is 1/3 or 0.3333). Enter the answer with 4 decimals (e.g. 1.1234)
Answer:
The beta of the other stock or stock B is 2.34
Explanation:
The beta of the portfolio is the weighted average of the individual stock betas that form up the portfolio. To calculate the beta for the portfolio, we use the following formula,
Portfolio beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N
Where,
w represents the weight of each stock in the portfolioAs the portfolio is equally as risky as the market, the portfolio beta is assumed to be the same as that of the market and the beta is 1.
The beta is the measure of systematic risk and a risk free asset does not have risk and has a beta of 0.
To calculate the Beta of stock B in the portfolio, we simply put the available values in the formula for the portfolio beta,
1 = 1/3 * 0 + 1/3 * 0.66 + 1/3 * Beta of B
1 = 0 + 0.22 + 1/3 * Beta of B
1 - 0.22 = 1/3 * Beta of B
0.78 * 3 = 1 * Beta of B
2.34 = Beta of B
Thus, the beta of the other stock or stock B is 2.34
E-Eyes just issued some new preferred stock. The issue will pay an annual dividend of $14 in perpetuity, beginning 19 years from now. If the market requires a return of 4.4 percent on this investment, how much does a share of preferred stock cost today
Answer:
Price of stock = $181.78
Explanation:
PV of dividend in year 13
PV =A×(1- (1+r)^(-n)/r )
PV of dividend in (year 13) = 14/(0.044=318.18
PV of dividend in year 0
PV = Div× (1+r)^(-n)
Dividend in year 13, r-interest rate, n- number of years
PV in year 0 = 318.1818182 × 1.044^(-13)= 181.78
Price of stock = $181.78

Thornton, Inc., had taxable income of $128,267 for the year. The company's marginal tax rate was 35 percent and its average tax rate was 24 percent. How much did the company have to pay in taxes for the year?
Answer:
$30784.08
Explanation:
Taxable income can be refer to as the amount of income used to calculate how much tax an organisation owes to the government in a particular tax year.
Thornton Inc. had taxable income of $128,267 for the year
The company's marginal tax rate is 35 percent
The company's average tax rate is 24 percent
To know how much did the company have to pay in taxes for the year, we multiply the Taxable income by the Company Average tax rate for the year.
=$128,267 * 24%
=$128,267 * 0.24
=$30784.08
Thornton Inc will pay $30784.08 for the year.
Gross national product gnp would include Select one: a. Final goods and services produced by American resources b. Final goods and services produced in other countries by US firms c. Final goods and services produced in the United States by US firms d. Final goods and services produced in the United States
Answer:
Option D, Final goods, and services produced in the United States.
Explanation:
Option D is correct because the gross national product is the value of all goods and services produced in the domestic boundary of a nation during the accounting year and all the net factor income from abroad. Since there is a lack of information regarding the net factor income from abroad in the question, so just consider the value of final goods and services produced in the domestic territory that will be part of GNP.

Botox Facial Care had earnings after taxes of $350,000 in 20X1 with 200,000 shares of stock outstanding. The stock price was $72.50. In 20X2, earnings after taxes increased to $420,000 with the same 200,000 shares outstanding. The stock price was $83.00. a. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X1. (The P/E ratio equals the stock price divided by earnings per share.) (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.) b. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X2. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.) c. Why did the P/E ratio change
Answer:
a. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X1.
EPS = $1.75 per stock
P/E ratio = 41.43
b. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X2.
EPS = $2.10 per stock
P/E ratio = 39.52
Explanation:
after taxes net income $350,000 in 20x1
200,000 outstanding common stocks
stock price $72.50
after taxes net income $420,000 in 20x2
200,000 outstanding common stocks
stock price $83.00
EPS = net income / outstanding stocks
20x1 = $350,000 / 200,000 = $1.75 per stock
20x2 = $420,000 / 200,000 = $2.10 per stock
P/E ratio = stock price / EPS
20x1 = $72.50 / $1.75 = 41.43
20x2 = $83.00 / $2.10 = 39.52

Similar to stock prices, bond values are derived as the discounted value of all cash flows received from bond ownership in exchange for the bond's price. The two main cash flows an investor receives in exchange for purchasing a bond are:
Answer: b. Interest or Coupon Payments (PMT) throughout the bond's life expand and the repayment of the principal or Face Value at the bond's maturity (FV).
Explanation:
For most bonds, a bond holder receives interest payments from the bond issuer in terms of coupon payments for the duration of the life of the bond. The coupon payment is a steady payment based on the par value of the bond.
When the bond matures, the bond holder receives the Principal/Face Value of the bond back. This value of usually the Par value of the bond regardless of how much the bond holder bought the bond for.
Tony saved enough money to place $125,500 in an investment generating 10% compounded monthly. He wants to collect a monthly income of $1,350, at the beginning of each month, for as long as the money lasts. How many months will Tony have this income coming to him?
A.165.
B.145.
C.192.
D.162.
Answer:
The answer is 162 months, option (D)
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
Tony saved an amount of money =$125,500
Investment generates a =10% compounded monthly
A monthly income of =$1350
Now, we have to find How many months will Tony have this income coming to him
Thus
The current income value will be equal to = $125,500.
So,
125,500 = 1350 + 1350/1.0077 + 1350/1.0077^2 + 1350/1.0077^3 + ... + 1350/1.0077^n
125,500 = 1350 * 1.0077 / 0.0077 * ( 1 - (1/1.0077)^n )
Therefore n= 162 months

1. If you are a major shareholder or an owner of a company, what could you do to make sure that your hired top managers are working in your interest? 2. If a firm is growing at its internal growth rate forever, what will happen to its capital structure or debt equity ratio? And why? 3. If you want to start a business, what long-term investments do you plan to choose and what assumptions and methods do you use to estimate your sales growth rates?
Answer:
1) As a shareholder, I have no direct control over what happens in the business. I'd influence the HR situation via the CEO. As the owner, I'd have a site down with the Head of HR to design a compensation plan that ties the performance of the Managers to the profitability of the company. One of such HR strategies are:
Profit-Sharing Incentives: This can be designed to be enforced on an enterprise-level or at the Business Unit Level or both. A profit-sharing compensation system ensures that a percentage (which is usually decided by the Remuneration Committee) is distributed according to points accrued based on the company's performance assessment for each unit/individual Sales/New Business Commission/Bonuses: This is a bonus/commission given for every sale/new business brought in to the company This encourages everyone in the company to become a salesperson. How much commission to give will depend on the advice fo the Chief Financial officer and the HR department.2) Internal Growth Rate is the maximum level of expansion attainable for a company using only self-financing or profits reinvested.
When this is the case, the company's capital structure will comprise mostly of ploughed back profits.
The Debt to Equity ratio will tend towards zero. This is because the company is funded more from Equity than from debt.
3) A long-term investment refers to an asset remains in the company's holding/books for a year and above. Its value is usually recorded on the assets part of a company's balance sheet. Investments which can be held for the long term are stocks, bonds, real estate, and interest earning savings.
Prior to igniting a startup, best practice requires that one holds a combination of various kinds of long-term investments. This portfolio will depend on a host of various factors such as:
Risk Affinity andEconomic PulseGovernment Bonds, Rent earning Real Estate and Interest-Earning Savings are relatively safe options. A ratio of 20:20:40 respectively will make for a great combination. The ratio for cash reserves is highest because, the higher the cash, the higher the interest. Besides, it's safe to keep maintain longterm investment that can be quickly converted when the need arises.
Sales Forecasting
As a startup, I'd go for the Intuitive Forecasting Method.
This method has a lot of demerits as it is not based on historical evidence or data. However, it's the best way to start off. If combined with market intelligence, (that is, data of businesses in a similar industry) this method can prove to be more effective.

A medical group practice is considering offering a new service with risk that is greater than the current risk of the business. When evaluating this investment, the decision maker should:
a. increase the internal rate of return of the project to reflect the greater risk
b. increase the net present value of the project to reflect the greater risk
c. reject the project because its acceptance would increase the risk of the business
d. ignore the risk differential if the project represents only a small fraction of the total assets of the firm
e. increase the cost of capital applied to the project to make it higher than the business's corporate cost of capital
Answer:
e. increase the cost of capital applied to the project to make it higher than the business's corporate cost of capital
Explanation:
When a project is more risky compared to the current risk of the business, the business shouldn't use the company's weighted average cost of capital but use a cost of capital higher than the company's wacc to reflect the riskiness of the project. .
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested
NPV and IRR are determined by amount invested in the project, cost of capital and cash inflows. It cannot be randomly manipulated.

Van Frank Telecommunications has a patent on a cellular transmission process. The company has amortized the patent on a straight-line basis since 2017, when it was acquired at a cost of $10.8 million at the beginning of that year. Due to rapid technological advances in the industry, management decided that the patent would benefit the company over a total of six years rather than the nine-year life being used to amortize its cost. The decision was made at the beginning of 2021.Required:
Prepare the appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2021 to reflect the revised estimate.
Answer:
The appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2021 to reflect the revised estimate would be as follows:
Amortization Expense Dr. 3 million
Patent Cr. 3 million
Explanation:
In order to Prepare the appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2021 to reflect the revised estimate we would have to make the following calculations:
Calculation after the Change:
Original Cost =$10.8 million
Annual Amortization (Old) =$10.8 million/9 = $1.2 million
Amortization till Date (2017 - 2021) = 1.2*4 = 4.8 million
Unamortized Value = 10.8 - 4.8 = 6 million
Remaining Life = 6 - 4 = 2 Years
New Amortization = Unamortized Value/Remaining Life = 6/2 = 3 million
Therefore, the appropriate adjusting entry for patent amortization in 2021 to reflect the revised estimate would be as follows:

Hancock Medical Supply Co., earned $85,000 of revenue on account during Year 1, its first year of operation. During Year 1, Hancock collected $67,600 of cash from its receivables accounts. The company did not write-off any uncollectible accounts. It estimates that it will be unable to collect 1% of revenue on account. What is the net realizable value of receivables that will be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1
Answer:
realizable value of the receivable = $16,550
Explanation:
First of all let us lay out the important information to be used in calculation clearly:
earnings = $85,000
receivables collected = $67,600
uncollectible amount = 1% of $85,000 = 0.01 × 85,000 = $850
Net realizable value of receivables is the total amount to be received, but that has not yet been received, and is not classified as uncollectible amount. This is calculated thus:
Net value of receivable = earnings - uncollectible amount - receivable collected.
= 85,000 - 850 - 67,600 = $16,550.
Note that the receivable collected is subtracted from the total earnings because it is no longer classified as receivable, once it has been received, hence whatever remains of the total earnings that has not bee received make up receivables.
Jane, Joseph and John are supporting their father who lives in a separate apartment. Their contribution towards his support is 10%, 35% and 55%, respectively. In a multiple support agreement, who would be entitled to claim the father as a dependent?
Answer:
Joseph or John
Explanation:
In order to claim a person as a dependent in order to be eligible for tax benefits, one must contribute with more than 10% of the person's support.
In this case, only Joseph and John contribute with more than 10% and therefore only Joseph or John would be entitled to claim their father as a dependent.
On January 1, a company has 700,000 shares of issued and outstanding common stock. On March 1, the company repurchases 60,000 shares. On June 1, it effects a 2-for-1 stock split. On November 1, it issues 240,000 shares. The company has a net income for the year of $2,720,000.
Required:
What is the basic earnings per share of common stock for the year (rounded to the nearest cent)?
Answer:
Basic EPS = 1.8
Explanation:
March 1 outstanding shares = 700,000 - 60,000= 640,000
June 1 outstanding shares = 640,000 × 2 = 1,280,000
November 1 outstanding shares = 1,280,000 + 240,000 =1,520,000
Net income = $2,720,000.
Basic earnings per shares (EPS) =
income available to ordinary shareholders/Number of shares outstanding
=$2,720,000/1,520,000 units = 1.789
Basic EPS = 1.8

Stilley Corporation had earnings after taxes of $438,000 in 20X2 with 200,000 shares outstanding. The stock price was $42.10. In 20X3, earnings after taxes declined to $208,000 with the same 200,000 shares outstanding. The stock price declined to $28.30. a. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X2. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.) b. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X3. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)\
Answer:
a) Earnings Per Share for 20X2 = 2.19
P/E ratio for 20X2 = 19.22
b) Earnings Per Share for 20X3 = 1.04
P/E ratio for 20X3 = 27.21
Explanation:
a) Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X2.
The compute the earnings per share use the following:
Earnings Per Share for 20X2 = (Earnings after tax-Preference Dividend) / shares outstanding
[tex] = \frac{438,000 - 0}{200,000} = 2.19 [/tex]
Earnings Per Share for 20X2 = 2.19
Then find P/E ratio:
P/E ratio for 20X2 = Market Price per share / Earnings Per Share
[tex] \frac{42.10}{2.19} = 19.224 [/tex]
P/E ratio for 20X2 = 19.22
b) Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X3.
The compute the earnings per share use the following:
Earnings Per Share for 20X3 =(Earnings after tax-Preference Dividend) / shares outstanding
[tex] = \frac{208,000 - 0}{200,000} = 1.04 [/tex]
Earnings Per Share for 20X3 = 1.04
Then find P/E ratio:
P/E ratio for 20X3 = Market Price per share / Earnings Per Share
[tex] \frac{28.30}{1.04} = 27.21 [/tex]
P/E ratio for 20X3 = 27.21
Suppose your friend is a music major who sings at weddings. She has no fixed or marginal costs for singing and has two types of customers: 20 customers think it is worth paying $200 to have her sing at their wedding, whereas 10 customers think her singing services are worth only $100. Il earn S if she can charge only one price to:________.
(a) If your friend is able to sing at each wedding and maximizes profits all customers.
(b) She will earn S If she can perfectly price discriminate.
Answer: a. $4,000
b. $5,000
Explanation:
a. If she can sing at each wedding but decides to maximise profits, she will only sing at the weddings of those paying her $200 as it is the higher of the two payment options.
Should she sing at the $200 customer weddings, she would make;
= 20 people * $200
= $4,000
b. Price Discrimination is the charging of different types of customers different prices for the same or similar goods.
If your friend knows how to perfectly charge the two different groups the different prices that they value her at then she will be able to attend and sing at both weddings making her revenue;
= (10* $100) + (20 * $200)
= 1,000 + 4,000
= $5,000
