Jake owns a company called Boat Builders, LLC and one evening he took several of his employees out after work to a bar. After eating and drinking for several hours Jake invited them back to the Boat Builders premises so he and some of the employees could show off a boat they’d been working on. After arriving at Boat Builders they all continued to drink and two of the employees, Tyler and Mark, got into an argument. When Tyler went to use the bathroom Mark attacked him from behind causing him to lose consciousness and break a tooth. Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it and went to check on Tyler. Tyler sat up and asked what happened and Jake told him that Mark had attacked him from behind. About an hour passed by during which time Jake went out to his car and got his phone so he could play music for everyone. After an hour, Tyler and Mark began to argue again and they walked outside into the Boat Builders parking lot where Mark attacked Tyler again. Mark left and was later arrested for aggravated battery. Tyler regained consciousness after 10 minutes and drove home even though he was badly injured.
Does Tyler have a negligence claim against Boat Builders? Why or why not? A complete answer will be at least 5 sentences and mention critical facts.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, because Boat Builders, LLC failed to exercise a reasonable standard of care at their premises.

Explanation:

Remember, we are told, "Jake... invited them back to the Boat Builders premises," meaning they (Boat Bilders, LLC) had a duty of care responsibility toward all of his employees present.

Note we are told, "Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it," this was a moment that shows Jake's negligence because as the owner of Boat Builders he had a duty of care to ensure no one is hurt without their own fault within their premises (which included their "parking lot").

Forrester Company is considering buying new equipment that would increase monthly fixed costs from $425,000 to $445,500 and would decrease the current variable costs of $60 by $15 per unit. The selling price of $100 is not expected to change. Forrester's current break-even sales are $1,140,000 and current break-even units are 11,400. If Forrester purchases this new equipment, the revised break-even point in dollars would be:

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point (dollars)= $810,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $445,500

Unitary variable cost= $45

Selling price= $100

To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 445,500 / [(100 - 45) / 100]

Break-even point (dollars)= $810,000

Mr. C made the following gifts: $12,000 to a university to pay tuition costs for his niece.

Various shares of stock to his wife that had an adjusted basis to Mr. C of $15,000 and a fair market value of $40,000. Mr. C did not consent to gift-splitting. What is the total amount of taxable gifts

Answers

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

Gifts are only taxed when their fair market value is higher than $15,000. Any gifts made to your spouse are not taxable. Gift taxes are calculated on a  per person base, as long as they do not exceed the lifetime exemption (which is $11.58 million).

The tuition costs of her niece are not taxable since they are less than $12,000. The stocks given to his wife are not taxable either. The only taxable gift is the land given to his sister which had a FMV of $25,000. The taxable amount = $25,000 - $15,000 = $10,000

Suppose the banking system has $40 billion in reserves. Also assume that there are no cash leakages or excess reserves. If the central bank lowers the required reserve ratio from 20 percent to 16 percent, the money supply will

Answers

Answer:

Money supply increases by $1.6 billion

Explanation:

The reserve ratio is defined as the amount of a bank's reserves that the central bank of a country expects banks to keep as cash and not lend out.

Reserve ratio is also called cash reserve ratio.

This requirement is put in place in case customers decide to make mass withdrawals.

Central banks tend to control cash supply by increasing or reducing the reserve ratio.

When money to be supplied as loans is to be increased, the reserve ratio reduces so that banks can use more of their reserves for lending rather than for cash withdrawals.

In this instance reserve ratio reduced from 20% to 16%.

That is a 4% reduction

This means 4% of the reserves is freed up for lending or money supply to the public

Extra money supply = 0.04 * 40 billion = $1.6 billion

Money supply increases by $1.6 billion

You will invest $25,000 in an ice cream shop your sister is starting. You expect to triple your investment in six years. What is the rate of return that you have in mind? (Rounded to the nearest percent.)

Answers

Answer:

r = 20.09%

Explanation:

we can use the future value formula to calculate the expected rate of return:

future value = present value x (1 + r)ⁿ

future value = $25,000 x 3 = $75,000present value = $25,000n = 6

$75,000 = $25,000 x (1 + r)⁶

(1 + r)⁶ = $75,000 / $25,000 = 3

⁶√(1 + r)⁶ = ⁶√3

1 + r = 1.2009

r = 0.2009 = 20.09%

Wyle Co. has $3.9 million of debt, $1 million of preferred stock, and $2.1 million of common equity. What would be its weight on preferred stock

Answers

Answer:

Weight of Preferred stock = 0.1428571429 or 14.28571429% rounded off to 14.29%

Explanation:

The capital structure of a business is made up of at least one or at most all of the following components namely Debt, Preferred Stock and Common Equity. The ratio in which each of these components form the capital structure might differ from business to business. The weightage of each component in the capital structure can be calculated by dividing the market value of each component by the sum of the market value of all the components.

Weight of a component = Market Value of component / Sum of market value of all components

Weight of Preferred stock = 1,000,000 / (3,900,000 + 1,000,000 + 2,100,000)

Weight of Preferred stock = 0.1428571429 or 14.28571429% rounded off to 14.29%

Answers

Answer:

$61

Explanation:

The computation of unit product cost for the month under absorption costing is shown below:-

Unit product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Variable Manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing cost

= $18 + $10 + $4 + ($255,200 ÷ 8,800)

= $61

Therefore for computing the unit product cost for the month under absorption costing we simply applied the above formula.

Division A makes a part that it sells to customers outside of the company. Data concerning this part appear below: Selling price to outside customers $ 40 Variable cost per unit $ 30 Total fixed costs $ 10,000 Capacity in units 20,000 Division B of the same company would like to use the part manufactured by Division A in one of its products. Division B currently purchases a similar part made by an outside company for $38 per unit and would substitute the part made by Division A. Division B requires 5,000 units of the part each period. Division A has ample capacity to produce the units for Division B without any increase in fixed costs and without cutting into sales to outside customers. If Division A sells to Division B rather than to outside customers, the variable cost be unit would be $1 lower. What is the lowest acceptable transfer price Division A should accept

Answers

Answer:

Lower selling price= $29

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price to outside customers $40

Variable cost per unit $ 30

Total fixed costs $10,000

Capacity in units 20,000

The variable cost per unit would be $1 lower.

Because there is unused capacity, and it won't affect other sales. We will not take into account the fixed costs.

The lower selling price is the one that equals the unitary variable cost.

Unitary variable cost= 30 - 1= $29

Lower selling price= $29

A new manufacturing machine is expected to cost $278,000, have an eight-year life, and a $30,000 salvage value. The machine will yield an annual incremental after-tax income of $35,000 after deducting the straight-line depreciation. Compute the accounting rate of return for the investment.

Answers

Answer:

22.7 %

Explanation:

Accounting rate of return = Average Profits / Average Investments × 100

Where,

Average Profit = Sum of Profits ÷ Number of Years

                        = $35,000

and

Average Investment = (Initial Investment + Salvage Value) ÷ 2

                                  = ($278,000 + $30,000) ÷ 2

                                  = $154,000

Therefore,

Accounting rate of return = $35,000 ÷ $154,000

                                          = 22.7 %

you can acquire an existing business for $2 million. You are uncertain about future demand. There is a 40% chance of high demand, in which case the present value of the business will be $3 million. There is a 25% chance of moderate demand, and the associated present value is $1.5 million. Finally, there is a 35% chance of low demand, in which case the present value is $1 million. Draw a decision tree for this problem. What is the expected net present value of the business

Answers

Answer:

Expected net present value of the project = $1,925,000

Explanation:

The cost of acquiring business = $2,000,000

Expected net present value of the project =  High demand NPV*High demand percent + Moderate demand NPV*Moderate demand percent + Low demand NPV*Low demand percent

Expected net present value of the project = $3,000,000 *40% + $1,500,000*25% + $1,000,000*35%

Expected net present value of the project = $1,200,000 + $375,000 + $350,000

Expected net present value of the project = $1,925,000

Conclusion: The cost of acquiring business is more than expected net present value, it is advisable not to invest in the project.

[Same investments as the prior question] Suppose two local start-ups are raising funding by issuing shares of equity at $10,000 per share. One start-up is a whiskey distillery; the other is a beer brewery. You estimate the expected returns on your investment to be 50% over five years in both cases. You also believe that the likelihood of being paid out $20,000 per share is greater with the distillery than with the brewery. Suppose now that you hold a portfolio of many other risky assets, and that this would be your N 1 investment. Which investment do you prefer to make, the distillery or the brewery

Answers

Answer:

you should purchase the brewery's stock

Explanation:

First of all, as investors we should always try to maximize our returns while avoiding risks. It is really hard to balance both, but we must compare stocks to see which may represent a higher gain while posing the lesser or same risk.

Initial investment in each = $10,000 (equal for both)expected returns over 5 years = $5,000 (equal for both)but there is a higher possibility of the distillery's stock being more valuable, and that makes a difference.

Both stocks seem equally risky, but they are not. When you calculate expected returns, you multiply the possible returns by their probability. I'm not sure how they calculated the expected returns of the above stocks, but the following can help you understand my point:

stock B                        return         probability        expected return

great                             100%             25%                    25%

normal                            50%             50%                    25%

bad                                  0%              25%                     0%

total                                                   100%                    50%

stock D                        return         probability        expected return

great                             100%             30%                    30%

normal                            50%             40%                    20%

bad                                  0%              30%                     0%

total                                                   100%                    50%

Both stocks have the same expected return, but stock B is less risky because the chance of being a bad investment is lower.

Yoshi Co.'s 12/31/2020 inventory on a FIFO basis was $980,000. The following information is available: Estimated selling price is $1,020,000; Estimated cost of disposal is $40,000; Normal profit margin is $120,000; and Current replacement cost is $900,000. At 12/31/2020, assuming Yoshi uses the loss method, what amount of loss should Yoshi record from applying LCM

Answers

Answer:

Yoshi Co.

The amount of loss that Yoshi Co. should record from applying LCM (the lower of Cost or Market price) is:

$40,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

FIFO inventory on 12/31/2020 = $980,000

Current replacement cost = $900,000

Net realizable value = $980,000 ($1,020,000 - $40,000)

Normal profit margin = $120,000

Loss to be recognized based on current replacement cost = FIFO purchase cost minus Current replacement cost

= $80,000 ($980,000 - $900,000)

b) Under the US GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) of prudence and conservatism, the loss of $80,000 must be recognized in the current period, since the inventory will be booked at $900,000, its current replacement cost, which is lower than the FIFO purchase cost of $980,000.

Exercise 17-5 Assigning costs using ABC LO P3 Xie Company identified the following activities, costs, and activity drivers for this year. The company manufactures two types of go-karts: Deluxe and Basic.

What is the overhead cost per unit of each model? (Round activity rate and average OH cost per unit answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activity rate for each activity:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Handling materials= 625,000/100,000= $6.25 per part

Inspecting product= 900,000/1,500= $600 per batch

Processing= 105,000/700= $150 per order

Paying suppliers= 175,000/500=$350 per invoice

Insuring the factory= 300,000/40,000= $7.5 per square feet

Designing packaging= 75,000/2= $37,500 per model

Now, we can allocate overhead to each model:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Deluxe:

Handling materials= 6.25*20,000= 125,000

Inspecting product= 600*250= 150,000

Processing= 150*50= 7,500

Paying suppliers= 350*50= 17,500

Insuring the factory= 7.5*10,000= 75,000

Designing packaging= 37,500*1= 37,500

Total allocated overhead= $412,500

Basic:

Handling materials= 6.25*30,000= 187,500

Inspecting product= 600*100= 160,000

Processing= 150*20= 3,000

Paying suppliers= 350*10= 3,500

Insuring the factory= 7.5*7,000= 52,500

Designing packaging= 37,500*1= 37,500

Total allocated overhead= $444,000

Finally, the unitary overhead:

Deluxe= 412,500/10,000= $41.25

Basic= 444,000/30,000= $14.8

1. Prepare the Journal Entry to record the Issuance of the Bond

January 1, 2020, bonds issued at a discount

Dr Cash 475,000

Dr Discount on bonds payable 75,000

    Cr Bonds payable 550,000

2. Determine the amount of the Discount/Premium that is still not amortized (using the Straight-Line Method)

total bond life = 16 years, 5 years have passed

amortization of bond discount per coupon payment = $75,000 / 16 = $4,687.50

so $51,562.50 have not been amortized yet

3. Prepare the Journal Entry to record the Retirement (Redemption) of the Bond.

Before being able to redeem the bonds, the remaining discount must be amortized:

December 31, 2025, amortization of bond discount

Dr Interest expense 51,562.50

    Cr Discount on bonds payable 51,562.50

the journal entry to record the redemption of the bonds

December 31, 2025, bonds redeemed at a loss

Dr Bonds payable 550,000

Dr Loss on retirement of debt 11,000

    Cr Cash 561,000

Dr. Bob Jackson owns a parcel of land that a local farmer has offered to rent from Dr. Bob for the next 10 years. The farmer has offered to pay $20,000 today or an annuity of $3,200 at the end of each of the next 10 years. Which pay-ment method should Dr. Jackson accept if his required rate of return is 10 percent

Answers

Answer:

Dr. Jackson should accept the $20,000 paid today

Explanation:

you must analyse the present value of both payment options:

the present value of the $20,000 paid today is exactly $20,000the present value of the annuity = $3,200 x 6.1446 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 10  periods) = $19,662.72

Since the present value of the immediate cash payment is higher than the annuity payment, Bob should choose that offer.

4. Give two reasons why GDP is often not seen as the best measure of living standards.


Answers

Answer:

Different factors account to it.

Explanation:

Because many factors that contribute to people's happiness are not bought and sold, GDP is a limited tool for measuring standard of living. To understand it's limitations better, let's take a look at several factors that are not accounted for in GDP.

GDP does not account for leisure time. The US GDP per capita is larger than the GDP per capita of Germany, but does this prove that the standard of living in the United States is higher? Not necessarily since it is also true that the average US worker works several hundred hours more per year more than the average German worker. The calculation of GDP does not take German workers extra weeks of vacation into account.

GDP includes what is spent on environmental protection, healthcare, and education, but it does not include actual levels of environmental cleanliness, health, and learning. GDP includes the cost of buying pollution-control equipment, but it does not address whether the air and water are actually cleaner or dirtier. GDP includes spending on medical care, but it does not address whether life expectancy or infant mortality have risen or fallen. Similarly, GDP counts spending on education, but it does not address directly how much of the population can read, write, or do basic mathematics.

Your grandpa doesn't trust "young 'uns" so you are set to inherit a $1,000,000 trust fund on your 50th birthday. Your Grandpa also doesn't like banks so he has buried the cash somewhere on his 40-acre farm in a location that will be revealed to you by his lawyer since Grandpa will not be around when you turn 50. If you could possibly get your hands on it now (when you are 20), you could put it in a bank at 6% annual interest. If you were able to dig up the money now, how much would you have when you turn 50?

Answers

Answer:

FV= $5,743,491.17

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Present value (PV)= $1,000,000

Number of periods (n)= 30 years

Annual interest= 6% = 0.06

To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 1,000,000*(1.06^30)

FV= $5,743,491.17
