Answer:
1. Kate cannot sue United based on negligence, which is the duty of care. United was not negligent and owed no duty of care in this instance to Kate.
2. Kate can rather sue based on a breach of warranty. There was a warranty (a written specific guarantee) on the mattress label, which indicated that it was "flame resistant."
Explanation:
A warranty, in this case, involves the written statement or claim by United Mattress Co. that the mattress was "flame resistant." United could have limited its liability for breach of a warranty by indicating clearly that the mattress could only slow the flaming process instead of just resisting flame. By making the onerous claim that the mattress was "flame resistant," United was exposing itself to liability claims by Kate, who was clearly negligent in putting a candle near her mattress while sleeping.
Suppose there are only two firms that sell smartphones: Flashfone and Pictech. The payoff matrix that follows shows the profit (in millions of dollars) each company will earn, depending on whether it sets a high or low price for its phones. For example, the lower-left cell shows that if Flashfone prices low and Pictech prices high, Flashfone will earn a profit of $10 million and Pictech will earn a profit of $3 million. (Hint: Assume this is a simultaneous game and that Flashfone and Pictech are both profit-maximizing firms.) Pictech High Price Low Price Flashfone High Price 8, 8 3, 10 Low Price 10, 3 5, 5 If Flashfone prices high, Pictech will make more profit if it chooses alow price, and if Flashfone prices low, Pictech will make more profit if it chooses ahigh price. If Pictech prices high, Flashfone will make more profit if it chooses alow price, and if Pictech prices low, Flashfone will make more profit if it chooses ahigh price. Considering all of the information given, pricing highis not a dominant strategy for both Flashfone and Pictech. What is the Nash equilibrium of this game
Answer:
Flashfone and Pictech
The Nash equilibrium is achieved when Pictech and Flashfone price their smartphones high without the other party changing their strategy.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Pictech
High Low
High 8 8 3 10
Flashfone
Low 10 3 5 5
b) By acting at the Nash equilibrium and pricing their smartphones high, Pictech and Flashfone achieve a payoff of $8 million respectively. This payoff level does not put any of the two firms at a disadvantage.
You enter into a short crude oil futures contract at $43 per barrel. The initial margin is $3,375 and the maintenence margin is $2,500. One contract is for 1,000 barrels of oil. By how much do oil prices have to change before you receive a margin call
Answer:
The correct answer is "43.875". A further explanation is provided below.
Explanation:
The given values are:
Initial margin,
= $3,375
Maintenance margin,
= $2,500
Barrels of oil,
= 1,000
Now,
The loss on the position will be:
= [tex]3375-2500[/tex]
= [tex]875[/tex] ($)
then,
⇒ [tex]1000 (P - 43) = 875[/tex]
⇒ [tex]1000P-43000=875[/tex]
On adding "43000" both sides, we get
⇒ [tex]1000P-43000+43000=875+43000[/tex]
⇒ [tex]1000P=43875[/tex]
⇒ [tex]P=\frac{43875}{1000}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=43.875[/tex]
Sage Company is operating at 90% of capacity and is currently purchasing a part used in its manufacturing operations for $16.00 per unit. The unit cost for the business to make the part is $20.00, including fixed costs, and $11.00, excluding fixed costs. If 32,842 units of the part are normally purchased during the year but could be manufactured using unused capacity, what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it
Answer:
$164,210 decrease
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it
Differential cost increase or decrease=(32,842 * 16)- (32,842 * 11)=
Differential cost increase or decrease=$525,472-$361,262
Differential cost increase or decrease=$164,210 decrease
Therefore what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it is $164,210 decrease
Your opinion is that CSCO has an expected rate of return of 0.15. It has a beta of 1.3. The risk-free rate is 0.04 and the market expected rate of return is 0.115. According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model, this security is
Answer:
Overpriced
Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
As we know that
Expected rate of return = risk free rate + beta × ( expected market rate of return - risk free rate )
= 0.04 + 1.3 × (0.115 - 0.04)
= 0.1375
As the return of the security is 0.1375 i.e. more than the expected rate of return i.e. 0.115
Hence, it is overpriced

Determine the temporary difference between the book value of depreciable assets and the tax basis of these assets at the end of 2019 and 2020.
Answer:
2019 $8,000
2020 $19,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the temporary difference between the book value of depreciable assets and the tax basis of these assets at the end of 2019 and 2020.
Calculation for 2019 Temporary differences
2019
Using this formula
2019 Temporary differences = 2019 Depreciation- 2019 depreciation expense
Let plug in the formula
2019 Temporary differences =$32,000 - $24,000
2019 Temporary differences= $8,000
Calculation for 2020 Temporary differences
Using this formula
2020 Temporary differences=(2019 Depreciation+2020 Depreciation)-( 2019 Depreciation expense+2020 Depreciation expense)
Let plug in the formula
2020 Temporary differences= ($32,000 + $37,000) - ($24,000 + $26,000)
2020 Temporary differences=$69,000-$50,000
2020 Temporary differences= $19,000
Therefore the temporary difference between the book value of depreciable assets and the tax basis of these assets at the end of 2019 and 2020 will be $8,000 and $19,000

Assume that Saudi Arabia has production possibilities to produce either 100 barrels of oil using 100 worker hours or 25 bushels of corn using 100 worker hours. If it decides to produce 60 barrels of oil, how many bushels of corn can it produce
Answer: 10 bushels
Explanation:
If they produce 100 barrels of oil using 100 worker hours, it means that the number of work hours taken for 1 barrel is:
= 100 / 100
= 1 work hour
For bushels however, 1 worker hour produces:
= 25 / 100
= 0.25 bushels of corn
If 60 barrels of oil are produced, it means 60 worker hours were used which would leave 40 worker hours.
Bushels of corn produced is therefore:
= 40 * 0.25
= 10 bushels
Castille Corp. purchases, for $600,000, land upon which a building and a dilapidated shed are situated. Castille plans to use the building as-is for operations but immediately razes the shed at a cost of $5,000 minus scrap recovery of $1,000. A recent tax appraisal of the property allocated $100,000 to the land and $400,000 to the building. In the entry to record the acquisition of the property, at what amount will Castille debit Land
Answer:
$120,800
Explanation:
Give that;
Cost of land = $600,000
Associated expenses :
Razing down the shed = $5,000
Income from scrap = $1,000
Total expenses = $4,000
The total cost of the land would be;
Total cost of land = Cost of land + Total expense
= $600,000 + $4,000
= $604,000
Tax allocation: land and building = $500,000
Land allocation will now be
= 100,000/500,000 × $604,000
= 0.2 × $604,000
= $120,800
Oriole Company purchased for $8,767,800 a mine that is estimated to have 48,710,000 tons of ore and no salvage value. In the first year, 2,830,000 tons of ore are extracted. (a1) Calculate depletion cost per unit. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 0.50.) Depletion cost per unit $enter the depletion cost per ton amount in dollars per ton
Answer:
the depletion cost per unit is $0.18 per ton
Explanation:
The computation of the depletion cost per unit is shown below;
We know that
Depletion cost per ton is
= (Total cost - salvage value) ÷ total estimated units
= ($8,767,800 - $0) ÷ 48,710,000
= $0.18 per ton
Hence, the depletion cost per unit is $0.18 per ton
we simply applied the above formula so that the depletion cost per ton could come
Rhoda Morgenstern just settled an insurance claim. The settlement calls for increasing payments over a 20-year period. The first payment will be paid one year from now in the amount of $50,000. The following payments will increase by 2 percent annually. What is the value of this settlement to Rhoda today if she can earn 5 percent on her investments
Answer:
PV = $733,271
Explanation:
From the given information:
The annual payment (P) = $50,000
number of years (n) = 20
The growth percentage = 2% = 0.02
Rate of percentage earned = 5% = 0.05
Using the formula illustrated below to determine the Present Value (PV) of a growing annuity;
[tex]PV = \dfrac{P}{r-g}\Big ( 1 - \Big ( \dfrac{1+g}{1+r} \Big) ^n \Big)[/tex]
[tex]PV = \dfrac{50000}{0.05-0.02}\Big ( 1 - \Big ( \dfrac{1+0.02}{1+0.05} \Big) ^{20} \Big)[/tex]
[tex]PV = \dfrac{50000}{0.03}\Big ( 1 - \Big ( \dfrac{1.02}{1.05} \Big) ^{20} \Big)[/tex]
[tex]PV =1666666.667 \Big ( 1 - \Big ( 0.9714285714 \Big) ^{20} \Big)[/tex]
[tex]PV =1666666.667 \Big ( 1 -0.5600379453 \Big)[/tex]
[tex]PV =1666666.667 \Big (0.4399620547 \Big)[/tex]
[tex]PV =\$733270.0913 \\ \\ \mathbf{PV \simeq \$733,271}[/tex]
MAD Inc. has a capital structure consisting of 40 percent debt and 60 percent common equity financing. The company has $400 million in net income and plans to pay out 25 percent of their earnings as dividends. What is the maximum amount of new financing that the company can raise without selling new common stock
Answer:
$500 million
Explanation:
Retained earnings = Income * (1 - Dividend payout percentage)
Retained earnings = $400 million * (1-0.25)
Retained earnings = $400 million * 0.75
Retained earnings = $300 million
Amount that can be raise without selling new stock: Retained earnings / % of equity financing in total capital
= $300 million / 60%
= $300 million / 0.60
= $500 million
At the beginning of the year, Nothing More, Corp., had a long-term debt balance of $37,929. During the year, the company repaid a long-term loan in the amount of $10,839. The company paid $4,235 in interest during the year, and opened a new long-term loan for $9,525. What was the cash flow to creditors during the year
Answer:
$5549
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the cash flow to creditors during the year
Using this formula
Cash flow to creditors =Interest -New debt
Let plug in the formula
Cash flow to creditors=4235-(9525-10,839)
Cash flow to creditors=4235-(-1314)
Cash flow to creditors =$5549
Therefore the cash flow to creditors during the year is $5549
In the current year, she sold her interest in Activity D for a $10,000 gain. Activity D, which had been profitable until last year, had a current loss of $1,500. Answer the following questions to determine how the sale of Activity D affects Sarah's taxable income in the current year. a. The amount of suspended losses carried forward to the year of the sale is $fill in the blank 1 20,000 . b. What amount of the suspended losses is allocated to Activity D
Answer:
a. -$20,000
b. -$2,000
Explanation:
a. The amount of suspended losses carried forward to the year:
= 30,000 + (-30,000) + (-15,000) + (-5,000)
= -$20,000
b. Suspended losses allocated to Activity D:
First find the total amount of losses:
= -30,000 - 15,000 - 5,000
= -$50,000
Activity B accounted for -$5,000 of this loss.
Suspended losses to be allocated to D would therefore be:
= -5,000 / - 50,000 * -20,000
= -$2,000

Consider a trader who takes a long position in a six-month forward contract on the euro. The forward rate is $1.75 = €1.00; the contract size is €62,500. At the maturity of the contract the spot exchange rate is $1.65 = €1.00. A. The trader has lost $625. B. The trader has lost $6,250 C. The trader has made $6,250 D. The trader has lost $66,287.88
Answer:
B. The trader has lost $6,250
Explanation:

First step
You will buy at $1.75 and spend= (1.75 × 62,500) You will buy at $1.75 and spend= $109,375
Second step
But you could buy and spend= (1.65 × 62,500)
But you could buy and spend= $103.125
Now let calculate the amount the trader has loss
Loss=$103,125 - $109,375
Loss = -$6,250
Therefore The trader has lost $6,250

A company projects an increase in net income of $135,000 each year for the next five years if it invests $900,000 in new equipment. The equipment has a five-year life and an estimated salvage value of $300,000. What is the annual rate of return on this investment
Answer:
the annual rate of return is 22.50%
Explanation:
The computation of the annual rate of return is shown below:
Average investment is
= ($900,000 + $300,000) ÷ 2
= $600,000
Now
Annual rate of return is
= Annual net income ÷ Average investment
= $135,000 ÷ $600,000
= 22.50%
hence, the annual rate of return is 22.50%
Harvey Dent wants to sell the $43,000 TriForcebonds he purchased 3 years ago at par value. The bonds have a 2.80% coupon, 9 years to maturity, and are trading at a 2.45% yield to maturity. If Harvey sells the bonds today, his proceeds from the sale would result in:
Answer: $1203
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the proceeds gotten from the sales if Harvey sells the bonds today will be:
Formula for bond price = Present value (Rate, Period, -Coupon amount, -Par value)
= PV(2.45%, 9, -43000 × 2.8%, -43000)
= 44203
Therefore, the proceeds will be the difference between the selling price and the purchase price which will be:
