NeverEver Corporation is choosing between a taxable bond at the yield of 7% and a municipal bond at the yield of 5.75%. Calculate the NeverEver Corporation's break-even tax rate. g
Answer:
18%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the NeverEver Corporation's break-even tax rate.
Using this formula
Break-even tax rate=1- ( Municipal / Corporate )
Let plug in the formula
Break-even tax rate=1- (0.0575-0.07)=0.821429
Break-even tax rate=1-0.821429=0.178571
Break-even tax rate=0.178571 *100
Break-even tax rate= 17.8%
Break-even tax rate=18% Approximatel
Therefore the NeverEver Corporation's break-even tax rate is 18%

Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
We weren't provided with the number of hours per unit or the hourly rate. But, let's suppose that each unit requires 0.1 hours and the hourly rate is $10.
Production= 28,000 units
Direct labor hours required= 28,000*0.1= 2,800 hours
Total direct labor cost= 2,800*10= $28,000
Taggart informs Anderson that the satellite television system Anderson installed does not include the PAC-12 network that was promised under their contract and thus disputes the $1000 per the contract he (Taggart) is supposed to pay. Anderson agrees to accept $800 and Taggart is pleased. If Taggart does not pay the $800 Anderson may sue Taggart for $1000.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The contract was renegotiated and the new consideration is now $800, not $1,000. Assuming that one party breaches the contract, the other party can sue for the value of the contract. In this case, if Taggart does not pay Anderson, Anderson may sue for $800. That number will probably increase due to associate costs and other damages, but the original breach was for $800.

Penny Arcades, Inc., is trying to decide between the following two alternatives to finance its new $28 million gaming center: a. Issue $28 million of 6% bonds at face amount. b. Issue 1 million shares of common stock for $28 per share. 2. Which alternative results in the highest earnings per share
Answer:
Penny Arcades, |nc.
a. Issue $28 million of 6% bonds at face amount.
Explanation:
Alternative A will surely result in higher earnings per share than Alternative B. It has been established that some financial leverage enables the stockholders to earn more per share. This is not a debatable issue. The hard work lies with the corporation's ability to find the debtholders that can finance its activities and assets. This means that the stockholders of Penny Arcades, Inc. will be at a much more financial advantage if they can find creditors to lend it the $28 million for the gaming center than making the finance available themselves.

Explain how negative externalities and, more specifically, pollution often result from a lack of clear property rights.
Answer:
An externality exists if a financial transaction affects the benefit to third parties. Externalities can be both positive and negative, depending if these affect the benefit to third parties on a positive or negative way.
An example of a negative external effect is air pollution; a factory owner may lack the incentive to limit air pollutant emissions because the damage mainly affects someone else, that is, it doesn't affect his property, but someone else's property or common property (such as the case of the environment).
Therefore, if there were more specific regulations regarding property and the effects of the misuse of this right, contamination could be avoided.

A retail store has two options for discounting items to go on clearance.
1: Decrease the price of the item by 15% each week.
2: Decrease the price of the item by $5 each week. If the cost of an item is $45, write a function rule for the difference in price between the two options.
Answer:
Difference = 1.75 , Function = mod [ 0.15x - 5 ]
Explanation:
Discount case 1 = $5 {Each week} , Discount case 2 = 15% {Each week}
After 1st week , for item cost = 45
Discount in case 1 = $5 , & price = 45 - 5 = 40 Discount in case 2 = 15% of 45 = 6.75 , & price = 38.25Difference in price = 40 - 38.25 = 1.75 .It is same is difference in discount = 6.75 - 5 , ie = 1.75
Functional rule in price difference , for item with unknown price 'x' = mod [ (x - 5) - (x - 0.15x) ] = mod [ x - 5 - x + 0.15x ] = mod [ 0.15x - 5 ] , which is same as difference between discount '0.15x & 5'

George is the owner of numerous classic automobiles. His intention is to hold the automobiles until they increase in value and then sell ous events (e.g., antiqu In 2017, he sold a classic automobile for $1.5 million. He had held the automobile for five years, and it had a tax basis of $750,000.
a. Was the automobile a capital asset? No. It is depreciable property used in a business.
b. Assuming a rate of return of 7%, how much would he have had to invest five years ago (instead of putting $750,000 into the car) to have had $1.5 million this year? The present value factor for 5 years at 7% is .7130.
Solution :
a). The capital asset that can be found as any type of property which is held by the assessee for a long period of time and it costs more than the useful day to day costs of operation, whether it is connected with the business or the profession of the assessee. It includes that all types of the properties which is movable, tangible, fixed or circulating.
The classic automobile sold by George in the year 2017 is considered not as a depreciable property which was being used in the business and had a determined a lifetime which was held for more than a year.
The depreciation property is any type of asset which is eligible for depreciation. The IRS Publication 96 requires a depreciable asset to meet the following requirements :
1. It must be any property that a person owns or possesses.
2. It is used for the business and the income of the producing activity.
3. It must have a determined useful life.
4. It is expected to last for more than a month.
b). The computation of the present value of the automobile :
Present value = future value x present value factor
PV = FV x PVF
= 1500000 x 0.7130
= $ 1,069,500
It is given that:
FV = $ 1,500,000
N = 5 years
The rate of return = 7%
So the PVF at N = 5 years and the rate of return = 7% is 0.7130
Thus, George should have invested his money for 5 year ago with a value of $ 1,039,5000 instead of putting $750,000 into a car.
