Explanation:
Steve and Holly report the following items for 2020: Dividend income $16,000 Interest income 14,000 Itemized deductions (none of the amount resulted from a casualty loss) (26,000) Business capital gains 2,000 Business capital losses (10,000) In calculating their net operating loss, and with respect to the above amounts only, what amount must be added back to taxable income (loss)
Answer: ($4000)
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the amount that must be added back to taxable income (loss) in calculating their net operating loss, will be:
Dividend income = $16000
Add: Interest income = $14000
Add: Business capital gain = $2000
Less: Business loss = $10000
Less: Itemized deduction = $26000
Taxable loss = ($16000 + $14000 + $2000) - ($10000 + $26000)
= $32000 - $36000
= - $4000
The rational rule of consumption is to consume more today if the: marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future. price of consumption today exceeds the dollar-plus-interest in the future. marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is less than the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future. real interest rate in the future is expected to be higher than the real interest rate today.
Answer:
marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future.
Explanation:
A rational consumer should consume more today when the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future.
A rational consumer should continue to consume up until the point where the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is equal to the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future
If the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is less than the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future, a rational consumer should postpone consumption until the future.

The first cost of the project is $30 million with annual maintenance estimated at $340,000. If the restored/expanded beaches attract visitors who will spend $6.2 million per year, what is the conventional B/C ratio at the social discount rate of 8% per year
Answer:
The conventional B/C ratio is 1.83.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Officials from the City of Galveston and State of Texas gathered to celebrate the start of a beach restoration project that involves dumping sand and adding antierosion structures. The first cost of the project is $30 million with annual maintenance estimated at $340,000. If the restored/expanded beaches attract visitors who will spend $6.2 million per year, what is the conventional B/C ratio at the social discount rate of 8% per year. Assume the State wants to recover the investment in 20 years.
Explanation of the answers is now given as follows:
From the question, we have:
First cost = $30 million, or $30,000,0000
Estimated annual maintenance cost = $340,000
Expected annual revenue = Amount to spend per year by the visitors = $6.2 million, or 6,200,000
r = social discount rate per year = 8%, or 0.08
n = number of recover the investment years = 20
Incorporating the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity, we have:
B = Present worth of annual revenue = Estimated annual revenue * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) = $6,200,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.08))^20) / 0.08) = $60,872,513.93
C = Present worth of cost = First cost + (Estimated annual maintenance cost * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r)) = $30,000,0000 + ($340,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.08))^20) / 0.08)) = $33,338,170.12
B/C ratio = B / C = $60,872,513.93 / $33,338,170.12 = 1.83
Therefore, the conventional B/C ratio is 1.83.

Apartments is a ​-unit apartment complex. When the apartments are​ 90% occupied, monthly operating costs total $220,040. When occupancy dips to​ 80%, monthly operating costs fall to $215,480. The owner of the apartment complex is worried because many of the apartment residents work at a nearby manufacturing plant that has just announced it will close in three months. The apartment owner fears that occupancy of her apartments will drop to 55​% if residents lose their jobs and move away. Assuming the same relevant​ range, what can the owner expect her operating costs to be if occupancy falls to ​55%?
Answer:
Missing word "Use the high-low method to determine operating cost equation y=$_____, x + $ = ____"
Cost on (800*90%)=720 units is 220,040
Cost on (800*80%) = 640 Units is 215,480
Variable cost per unit = Changes in total cost/High activity-low activity = 4560 / 80 = $57 per unit
Fixed cost = Total cost - Variable cost = 220,040 - (720*$57) = 220,040 - 41,040 = $179000
Cost equation:
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost per unit
Y = 179000 + 57X
Y = 179000 + (57*440)
Y = $204,080
Paul Company had 100,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, 2021. On September 30, 2021, Paul sold 40,000 shares of common stock for cash. Paul also had 6,000 shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding throughout 2021. The preferred stock is $100 par, 6%, and is convertible into 3 shares of common for each share of preferred. Paul also had 420, 8%, convertible bonds outstanding throughout 2021. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 30 shares of common stock. The bonds sold originally at face value. Reported net income for 2021 was $270,000 with a 40% tax rate. Common shareholders received $1.20 per share dividends after preferred dividends were paid in 2021.
Required: Compute basic and diluted earnings per share for 2021. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Basic EPS = [$270,000 - (6% * $100 * 6,000)] / [100,000 + 40,000 * 3/12]
Basic EPS = [$270,000 - $36,000] / 35,000
Basic EPS = $234,000 / 35,000
Basic EPS = 6.685714285714286
Basic EPS = 6.69
Diluted EPS = [$270,000 + ($420,00*8%*60%)] / [100000 + 40,000 * 3/12 + (420*30) + (6,000*3)]
Diluted EPS = [$270,000 + $2,016] / [35,000 + 12600 + 18,000]
Diluted EPS = $272,016 / 65,600
Diluted EPS = 4.146585365853659
Diluted EPS = $4.15
The Bonita Inc., a manufacturer of low-sugar, low-sodium, low-cholesterol TV dinners, would like to increase its market share in the Sunbelt. In order to do so, Bonita has decided to locate a new factory in the Panama City area. Bonita will either buy or lease a site depending upon which is more advantageous. The site location committee has narrowed down the available sites to the following three very similar buildings that will meet their needs.
Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $611,000, useful life 25 years.
Building B: Lease for 25 years with annual lease payments of $71,370 being made at the beginning of the year.
Building C: Purchase for $657,400 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 25 years at a net annual rental of $6,800. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year. The Nash Inc. has no aversion to being a landlord.
Required:
In which building would you recommend that The Bonita Inc. locate, assuming a cost of funds?
Answer:
Building C
Explanation:
Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $611,000, useful life 25 years.
Building B: Lease for 25 years with annual lease payments of $71,370 being made at the beginning of the year.
Building C: Purchase for $657,400 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 25 years at a net annual rental of $6,800. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year.
11% cost of funds
we must determine the present value of each option:
Building A's present value = $611,000
Building B's present value = $71,370 x 8.4217 (PV annuity due factor, 11%, 25 periods) = $601,057
Building C's present value = $657,400 - ($6,800 x 8.4217) = $657,400 - $57,268 = $600,132 (LOWEST PV)

The Anderson Company has equal amounts of low-risk, average-risk, and high-risk projects. The firm's overall WACC is 12%. The CFO believes that this is the correct WACC for the company's average-risk projects, but that a lower rate should be used for lower-risk projects and a higher rate for higher-risk projects. The CEO disagrees, on the grounds that even though projects have different risks, the WACC used to evaluate each project should be the same because the company obtains capital for all projects from the same sources. If the CEO's position is accepted, what is likely to happen over time? a. The company's overall WACC should decrease over time because its stock price should be increasing. b. The CEO's recommendation would maximize the firm's intrinsic value. c. The company will take on too many low-risk projects and reject too many high-risk projects. d. The company will take on too many high-risk projects and reject too many low-risk projects. e. Things will generally even out over time, and, therefore, the firm's risk should remain constant over time
Answer:
d. The company will take on too many high-risk projects and reject too many low-risk projects.
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of capital is the firm's is the rate which a firm has to pay to the lenders of fund. There can be different WACC for different projects as the WACC is based on the business risk. The beta factor can be different for all projects and since it is dependent on the nature of project and the risk it involves.

Explanation:
Business strategy sets the overall direction for the business because it focuses on defining how a business would achieve its goals, objectives, and mission; as well as the funds and material resources required to implement or execute the business plan.
Planning is a term used to describe the process of developing the organization's objectives and translating those into courses of action.
This ultimately implies that, planning is a strategic technique used by organizations to make an aggregate plan for its manufacturing (production) process typically ahead of time, in order to have an idea of the level of goods that are to be produced and what resources are required so as to reduce the total cost of production to its barest minimum.
While implementing an affirmative action plan, an employer is expected to do all of the following;
I. Establish objectives that can be met by applying good faith efforts.
II. Make all employment decisions in a nondiscriminatory manner.
III. Ensure that hiring objectives do not establish a floor or a ceiling for employment of certain groups.
You just received a bonus at your job of $4,000 which you decide to put in a savings account at the local bank. Assume that banks lend out all excess reserves and there are no leaks in the banking system. That is, all money lent by banks get deposited in the banking system. Round your answers to the nearest dollar.The reserve requirement is 18%, how much will your deposit increase the total value of checkable deposits?If the reserve requirement is 7%, how much will your deposit increase the total value of checkable deposits?Decreasing the reserve requirement _____ the money supply.a. Decreasesb. Increases
Answer:
$22,222.22
$57,142.86
INCREASES
Explanation:
Reserve requirement is the portion of deposit received by banks that the central bank requires to be kept as deposit.
If $4000 is deposited and reserve requirement is 18%
reserves would increase by $4000 x 0.18 = 4720
Increase in the total value of checkable deposit is determined by the money multiplier
Money multiplier = amount deposited / reserve requirement
$4000 / 0.18 = $22,222.22
$4000 / 0.07 = $57,142.86
It can be seen that the higher the reserve requirement, the lower the increase in the total value of checkable deposit
Kevin O’Leary suggests that Jenn and Kelley decrease the price of their product by 50% and sell 10 times as many. That is, he predicts if they drop the price of their product from $40 to $20 they will increase their quantity demanded from 6,000 to 60,000. Calculate the price elasticity of demand for Pursecases using the midpoint formula from this information
Answer:
The price elasticity of demand for Pursecases using the midpoint formula from this information is -2.45.
Explanation:
From the question, we have:
New quantity demanded = 60,000
Old quantity demanded = 6,000
New price = $20
Old price = $40
The formula for calculating the price elasticity of demand is as follows:
Price elasticity of demand = Percentage change in quantity demanded /
Percentage change in price ................ (1)
Where, based on the midpoint formula, we have:
Percentage change in quantity demanded = {(New quantity demanded - Old
quantity demanded) / [(New quantity demanded + Old quantity demanded) /
2]} * 100 = {(60,000 - 6,000) / [(60,000 + 6,000) / 2]} * 100 = 163.636363636364%
Percentage change in price = {(New price - Old price) / [(New price + Old
price) / 2]} * 100 = {(20 - 40) / [(20 + 40) / 2]} * 100 = -66.6666666666667%
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Price elasticity of demand = 163.636363636364% / -66.6666666666667% = -2.45454545454546
Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:
Price elasticity of demand = -2.45
Therefore, the price elasticity of demand for Pursecases using the midpoint formula from this information is -2.45.
When The price elasticity of demand for Purchase then we are using the midpoint formula from this information is: -2.45.
Elasticity of demandAccording to the Elasticity of demand, are refers to the degree within the change in demand and also when there is a little change in another economic factor, like price or income.
Then New quantity demanded is = 60,000Old quantity demanded is = 6,000
After that New price are = $20
Then Old price is = $40
When The Price elasticity of demand is = Percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price are
Percentage change in quantity demanded = * 100
= * 100
= 163.636363636364%[/tex]
Percentage change in price
= * 100
= * 100 = -66.6666666666667%[/tex]
Then Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Price elasticity of demand is =163.636363636364% [tex]-66.6666666666667% = -2.45454545454546[/tex}
Then the Price elasticity of demand is = -2.45
Thus, the value elasticity of demand for Purchase using the midpoint formula from this information is -2.45.

In recent years, Avery Transportation purchased three used buses. Because of frequent turnover in the accounting department, a different accountant selected the depreciation method for each bus, and various methods were selected. Information conserning the buses is summarized as follow.
Bus Acquired cost salvage Value Useful Life in Years Depreciation Method
1 1/1/12 $99,100 $7,900 4 Strait-line
2 1/1/12 128,000 11,000 4 Declining- balance
3 1/1/13 66,350 8,800 5 Unit-of-activity
For the declining -balance method, the company uses the double-declining rate. for the units-of-activity method, total miles are expected to be 115,100. Actual miles of use in the first 3 years were: 2013, 23,400; 2014, 32,700; and 2015, 31,900. For Bus #3, calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.(Round answer to 2 decimal places,e.g.$0.50.).
Compute the amount of accumulated depreciation on each bus at December 31, 2014 (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. $2,125.).
2014

BUS3 $
If bus 2 was purchased on April 1 instead of January 1, what is the depreciation expense for this bus in 2012 and 2013? (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g.$2,125.).
2012 2013
Depreciation expense $ $
Answer:
1. For Bus #3, calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method
Depreciation expense per mile = ((Cost of bus - Salvage value) / Total miles)
= ($66,350 - $8,800) / 115,100 miles
= $0.5 per mile
The depreciation expense per mile is $0.5 per mile.
2. BUS 1
Depreciation for 1 year = (Cost of assets - Residual value) / Useful life
= $99,100−$7,900 / 4 years
= $22,800
Accumulated depreciation = Depreciation for 1 year * 3 years (from 2012 to 2014)
= $22,800 * 3 years
= $68,400
BUS 2
Depreciation rate = (1/4 *100)*2 = 50%
Years Annual Depreciation Accum. depreciation

Decision Making: Stormcenter A decision is a choice made from among available alternatives. Decision making is the process of identifying and choosing alternative courses of action. This activity is important because managers need to know how to make effective decisions, sometimes quickly. The goal of this activity is to provide you with problem-solving skills when it comes to issues related to decision making. A storm is on track for a possible hit on a major city and the government has set up a command center to monitor it and make decisions. There is some disagreement between government officials on whether or not an evacuation of the city should be ordered. There is limited time to make a decision and things get quite heated at the storm center. How is the team handling the situation? How would you? At the beginning of the video, Ava does not properly follow the third step of the formal decision-making process. What did she do wrong?
Answer:
The team should take the matter very seriously as the storm effects is unpredictable.
I would take decision to inform the residents of the city about the storm and its intensity. The plans should be made in case if the storm get wild, the relocation can be made with ease.
Ava should discuss all the concerns with the team and she should encourage the team to gather ideas.
Explanation:
The government has the responsibility of the entire city. In case of natural disasters the government is held responsible for not taking the immediate precautionary measures.

A company makes a product using two materials, one of which is interchangeable with a third material. The standards for producing one 200-pound batch are presented below. The last 200-pound batch was produced using 185 pounds of M and 210 pounds of O. The price of M was $0.03 per pound and the actual price of O was $0.10.
Material Standard Quantity (lbs) Standard Cost/lb. Total Cost
O 0 $0.10 $0
H 125 0.08 10.00
M 75 0.02
1.50 200 $11.50
Is the material mix variance favorable or unfavorable
Answer:
The material mix variance unfavorable.
Explanation:
This can be determined using the following 3 steps:
Step 1: Calculation of the total Standard Cost of Actual Mix of the 3 materials
Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material O = Units of material O used * Standard cost of material O = 210 * $0.10 = $21
Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material H = Units of material H used * Standard cost of material H = 0 * $0.08 = $0
Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material M = Units of material M used * Standard cost of material M = 185 * $0.02 = $3.79
Total Standard Cost of Actual Mix of the three materials = Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material O + Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material H + Standard Cost of Actual Mix of material M = $21 + $0 + $3.79 = $24.70
Step 2: Calculation of the total Standard Cost of Standard Mix of the 3 materials
Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material O = Standard Units of material O * Standard cost of material O = 0 * $0.10 = $0
Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material H = Standard Units of material H * Standard cost of material H = 125 * $0.08 = $10
Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material M = Standard Units of material M * Standard cost of material M = 75 * $0.02 = $1.50
Standard Cost of Standard Mix of the three materials = Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material O + Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material H + Standard Cost of Standard Mix of material M = $0 + $10 + $1.50 = $11.50
Step 3: Calculation of material mix variance
Material mix variance = Total Standard Cost of Actual Mix of the three materials - Standard Cost of Standard Mix of the three materials = $24.70 - $11.50 = $13.20
Since the Total Standard Cost of Actual Mix of the three materials is greater than Standard Cost of Standard Mix of the three materials (i.e. by $13.20), this implies that the material mix variance unfavorable.

You have just purchased a municipal bond with a $10,000 par value for $9,500. You purchased it immediately after the previous owner received a semiannual interest payment. The bond rate is 6.6% per year payable semiannually. You plan to hold the bond for 7 years, selling the bond immediately after you receive the interest payment. If your desired nominal yield is 10% per year compounded semiannually, what will be your minimum selling price for the bond
Answer:
$12,341.80
Explanation:
The computation of the minimum selling price for the bond is shown below:
Semi-annual = 10% ÷ 2 = 5%
Semi-annual compounding periods = 7 × 2 = 14
Semi-annual coupon (for 10 bonds) = $10,000 × 6.6% × (1 ÷ 2) = $330
as we know that
Here We assume the selling price be S
The Present worth of the bond = PW of future cash flows
$9,500 = $330 × P/A(5%, 14) + S × P/F(5%, 14)
$9,500 = $330 × 9.898641 + S × 0.505068
$9,500 = $3,266.55 + S × 0.505068
S × 0.505068 = $6,233.45
= $12,341.80

You are considering investing $1,000 in a T-bill that pays 0.05 and a risky portfolio, P, constructed with two risky securities, X and Y. The weights of X and Y in P are 0.60 and 0.40, respectively. X has an expected rate of return of 0.14 and variance of 0.01, and Y has an expected rate of return of 0.10 and a variance of 0.0081. What would be the dollar values of your positions in X and Y, respectively, if you decide to hold 40% of your money in the risky portfolio and 60% in T-bills
Answer:
The answer is "[tex]x=\$240 \ and \ y= \$160[/tex]"
Explanation:
Total amount[tex]= \$1000[/tex]
when [tex]40\%[/tex] a risky portfolio [tex]= 0.4 \times \$1000=\$400[/tex]
calculating the risky portfolio value on [tex](\$400)[/tex]
When [tex]60\%[/tex] consist of x
[tex]\to \$400 \times 0.6\\\\\to \$240[/tex]
When [tex]40\%[/tex] consist of y
[tex]\to \$400 \times 0.4\\\\\to \$160[/tex]
So, the dollar value in [tex]x=\$240 \ and \ y= \$160[/tex]
A company making tires for bikes is concerned about the exact width of their cyclocross tires. The company has a lower specification limit of 19.930 mm and an upper specification limit of 20.070 mm. The standard deviation is 0.18 mm and the mean is 20.000 mm. b. The company now wants to reduce its defect probability and run a "six-sigma process." To what level would they have to reduce the standard deviation in the process to meet this target? (Round the answer to 5 decimal places.)
Answer:
Missing word "a. What is the process capability index for the process?"
a. Cpk = Min[USL-μ/3σ, μ-LSL/3σ]
Cpk = Min[(20.070-20)/(3*0.18) ,(20-19.930)/(3*0.18]
Cpk = Min[0.1296, 0.1296]
Hence, process capability index is 0.1296
b. 2 = Min[USL-μ/3σ, μ-LSL/3σ]
2 = Min[(20.070-20)/(3*σ) ,(20-19.930)/(3*σ]
2 = Min[(0.07/3*σ, 0.07/3*σ)]
= Min[0.07/6, 0.07/6]
σ = 0.07/6
σ = 0.0117
Hence, reduced standard deviation level is 0.0117

A company purchased a new pizza oven for $12,676. It will work for 5 years and has no salvage value. The tax rate is 41%, and annual revenues are constant at $7,192. For financial reporting, the straight-line depreciation method is used, but for tax purposes depreciation is 35% of original cost in years 1 and 2 and the remaining 30% in Year 3. For this question ignore all expenses other than depreciation. What is the tax payable for year one?
A. $2,535 $3,169
B. $4,657 $2,748
C. $2,748 $2,535
Answer:
straight line depreciation rate = $12,676 / 5 = $2,535.20
financial reporting income = $7,192 - $2,535.20 = $4,657 x 41% = $1,909
Accelerated depreciation = $12,676 x 35% = $4,437
taxable income = $7,192 - $4,437 = $2,755 x 41% = $1,130
tax expense for year 1 = $1,130
deferred tax liability for year 1 = $1,909 - $1,130 = $779
financial reporting income = $4,657
taxable income = $2,755

JRJ Corporation issued 10-year bonds at a price of $1,000. These bonds pay $60 interest every six months. Their price has remained the same since they were issued; that is, the bonds still sell for $1,000. Due to additional financing needs, the firm wishes to issue new bonds that would have a maturity of 10 years and a par value of $1,000 and pay $40 interest every six months. If both bonds have the same yield, how many new bonds must JRJ issue to raise additional capital of $2 million
Answer:
JRJ must issue 2,596 bonds to raise additional capital of $2 million.
Explanation:
From the question, we have the following:
Amount needed to be raised = $2 million = $2,000,000
Coupon rate = 8.0%, or 0.08
FV = Face value = 1000
Year to maturity = 10
NPER = Number of period = Year to maturity * Number of semiannuals in a year = 10 * 2 = 20
PMT = (FV * Coupon rate) / Number of semiannuals in a year =(1000 * 0.08) / 2 = 40
Rate = Semiannual interest / FV = $60 / $1000 = 0.06
The net proceeds can be calculated using the following excel function:
Net proceed = PV(rate, NPER, -PMT, -FV) ........... (1)
Substituting all the relevant value into equation (1), we have:
Net proceed = PV(6%, 20, -40, -1000)
Inputing =PV(6%, 20, -40, -1000) in any cell in excel sheet (Note: as done in the attached excel file), we have:
Net proceed = $770.60
Therefore, we have:
Number of bonds that must be raised = Amount needed to be raised / Net proceed = $2,000,000 / $770.60 = 2,596
