Answer:
a. Estimate purchases (in units) for June and July.
June = 11,400 partsJuly = 11,100 partsb. Estimate the cash required to make purchases in June and July.
June = $192,600July = $168,300Explanation:
Beginning stock June 1 = 12,000 parts
June's expected sales = 12,900 parts
July's expected sales = 10,500 parts
August's expected sales = 11,100 parts
purchase price $15 per part
60% paid in current month and 40% paid in the next month
15,000 parts were purchased in May at $225,000 ($90,000 to be paid in June)
estimated purchases June = estimated sales June + estimated sales July - beginning inventory = 12,900 + 10,500 - 12,000 = 11,400
estimated purchases July = estimated sales July + estimated sales August - beginning inventory = 10,500 + 11,100 - 10,500 = 11,100
cash payments June = (May's purchases x 40%) + (June's purchases x 60%) = (15,000 x $15 x 40%) + (11,400 x $15 x 60%) = $90,000 + $102,600 = $192,600
cash payments July = (June's purchases x 40%) + (July's purchases x 60%) = (11,400 x $15 x 40%) + (11,100 x $15 x 60%) = $68,400 + $99,900 = $168,300
Mountain Lake Corporation's accounting records show the following at year-end December 31, 2014:
Purchase Discounts $7,230 Beginning Inventory $32,660
Freight-In 8,730 Ending Inventory 29,170
Freight-Out 12,260 Purchase Returns and Allowances 4,190
Purchases 164,250
Assuming that Mountain Lake Corporation uses the periodic system, compute the cost of goods purchased and cost of goods sold.
1. Cost of goods purchased$=?
2. Cost of goods sold$=?
Answer:
Cost of goods purchased= $161,560
Cost of goods sold= $165,050
Explanation:
1. Cost of goods purchased (net) = Purchases - Purchase discount - purchase returns and allowances + Freight in
= $164,250 - $7,230 - $4,190 + $8,730
=$161,560
2. Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + Net purchase - Ending inventory
= $32,660 + $161,560 - $29,170
= $165,050
The sensitivity parameter in the consumption function that measures how sensitive consumption is to changes in consumer confidence is referred to as the marginal propensity to consume.
a. True
b. False
Answer: False
Explanation:
The Sensitivity Parameter that measures the sensitivity of changes in consumption to changes in consumer confidence is not the Marginal Propensity to Consume.
The Marginal Propensity to Consume rather measures what proportion of additional income is spent on consumption. For example, if you earn an extra $50 this month and you spend $40, the Marginal Propensity to Consume is 40/50 = 0.8.
You will be paying $10,200 a year in tuition expenses at the end of the next two years. Bonds currently yield 9%. a. What is the present value and duration of your obligation
Answer:
Present value of obligation is $17,942.94
Duration 1.4785 years
Explanation:
Present value of obligation can be calculate by using following formula
PV = Tuition payment x ( 1 + yield rate )^-n
PV of First year payment = $10,200 x ( 1 + 9% )^-1 = 9,357.80
PV of Second year payment = $10,200 x ( 1 + 9% )^-2 = 8,585.14
PV of Obligation = PV of First year payment + PV of Second year payment
PV of Obligation = 9,357.80 + $8,585.14 = $17,942.94

Bermuda Cruises issues only common stock and coupon bonds. The firm has a debt–equity ratio of .75. The cost of equity is 11.6 percent and the pretax cost of debt is 6.7 percent. What is the capital structure weight of the firm's equity if the firm's tax rate is 40 percent?
Answer:
the capital structure weight of the firm's equity will be 57.14 %.
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of Capital is the return that is required by the providers of long term sources of finance.
A debt–equity ratio of 0.75 means:
Debt : Equity = 0.75 : 1
The Total Ratio will be = 0.75 + 1.00
= 1.75
Therefore, the capital structure weight of the firm's equity will be :
Equity Weight = Equity Ratio ÷ Total Ratio
= 1.00 ÷ 1.75

A stock just paid a dividend of $5.37 and is expected to maintain a constant dividend growth rate of 4.6 percent indefinitely. If the current stock price is $77, what is the required return on the stock
Answer:
The required return on the stock is 11.89%.
Explanation:
To calculate this, the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula is used as follows:
P = d1 / (r – g) ……………………………………… (1)
Where;
P = current share price = $77
d1 = next dividend = Recent dividend * (1 + g) = $5.37 * (1 + 0.046) = $5.61702
r = required return = ?
g = dividend constant growth forever = 4.6%, or 0.046
Substituting the values into equation 1) and solve for r, we have:
77 = 5.61702 / (r - 0.046)
77(r - 0.046) = 5.61702
77r - 3.542 = 5.61702
77r = 5.61702 + 3.542
r = 9.15902 / 77
r = 0.1189, or 11.89%
Therefore, the required return on the stock is 11.89%.
Which of the following is not a finding or conclusion of the research study by ou and penman that used traditional accounting measure to predict whether a company's income would increase or decrease?
a. The researchers were unable to describe the following year earnings changes correctly in most cases.
b. Markets are not as efficient as efficient-market advocates would like to believe.
c. Better accounting standards might improve the predictive ability of accounting information.
d. Fundamental analysis is still important for investment purposes.
Answer: a. The researchers were unable to describe the following year earnings changes correctly in most cases.
Explanation:
It was long believed and shown by the works of researchers before Jane Ou and Stephen Penman that the price and performance of stock prices can be used to predict the direction that earnings would take. They attributed this to the fact that stock prices have off information about how the company would perform and by extension how much earnings it would make.
Ou and Penman expanded on this research by showing that the information that the stock prices had was already inside the financial statements of the company. As such they were able to describe the earnings changes in the coming period.
Stock market prices plunged tremendously in 1929, contributing to the Great Depression as the AD curve shifted greatly to the left. The ordinary AS/AD model predicts that a falling short-run aggregate supply would bring deflation and move the economy back to potential output. Which of the following describes the impact of dynamic feedback effects on this return to potential output?
a. expectations that stock prices would rise back again would cause the AD curve to shift left.
b. expectations that stock prices would fall further could shift the AD curve further to the left.
c. expectations that stock prices will fall further would cause the AD curve to shift to the right.
d. falling stock prices would make people feel poorer which would cause the AD curve to shift to the right.
Answer:
b. expectations that stock prices would fall further could shift the AD curve further to the left.
Explanation:
The AS/ AD model stated the aggregate supply and aggregate demand model which stated level of prices and its output by maintaining the relation between the supply and demand
As in the given situation, it is mentioned that the aggregate supply of short run decline and that brings deflation and it moves the economy back to the output i.e potential. It impacts the expectation of stock prices would result in declines and further it shifted the AD curve to the left side
Hence, the correct option is B.

If during the signing appointment the borrower divulges that the property being financed is an investment property, while the loan papers indicate it is for a primary residence, the Notary Signing Agent should:
Answer:
contact the lender's representative immediately before signing the documents.
Explanation:
The above is an example of Actual or Potential misrepresentation which falls under Code of Conduct 5.10. Once a notary signing agent notices that during the signing appointment, the information provided by the borrower differs from what is on the loan document, he should immediately report such false misrepresentation (potential or actual misrepresentation or falsehood known) witnessed by the NSA in connection with a transaction to the representative of the NSA.
By contacting the lender's representative, the purpose for obtaining the loan will be confirmed whether the property being financed is an investment property or for a primary residency otherwise the notary signing agent will be held responsible for any infraction if his signature is appended because he is expected to verify the authenticity of the information provided.
Frances is a retired teacher who lives in Denver and does some consulting work for extra cash. At a wage of $50 per hour, she is willing to work 10 hours per week. At $65 per hour, she is willing to work 19 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Jake’s labor supply between the wages of $50 and $65 per hour is approximately _______ , which means that Jake’s supply of labor over this wage range is ______ .
Answer:
Midpoint elasticity = 2.38
Supply of labor is Elastic
Explanation:
Midpoint elasticity = (Change in labor supplied / Average labor supplied) / (Change in wage rate / Average wage rate)
When Change in labor supplied= 19-10=9
Average labor supplied=(19+10)/2 =14.5
Change in wage rate=65-50=15
Average wage rate =(65 + 50)/2=57.5
Midpoint elasticity = (9/14.5) / (15/57.5)
= 0.62/0.26
= 2,3846
= 2.38
Since elasticity is higher than 1, supply of labor is Elastic.
You work for a marketing firm that has just landed a contract with Run-of-the-Mills to help them promote three of their products: guppy gummies, frizzles, and mookies. All of these products have been on the market for some time, but, to entice better sales, Run-of-the-Mills wants to try a new advertisement that will market two of the products that consumers will likely consume together. As a former economics student, you know that complements are typically consumed together while substitutes can take the place of other goods. Run-of-the-Mills provides your marketing firm with the following data: When the price of guppy gummies increases by 5%, the quantity of frizzles sold decreases by 4% and the quantity of mookies sold increases by 5%. Your job is to use the cross-price elasticity between guppy gummies and the other goods to determine which goods your marketing firm should advertise together. Complete the first column of the following table by computing the cross-price elasticity between guppy gummies and frizzles, and then between guppy gummies and mookies. In the second column, determine if guppy gummies are a complement to or a substitute for each of the goods listed. Finally, complete the final column by indicating which good you should recommend marketing with guppy gummies. Relative to Guppy Gummies Recommend Marketing with Guppy Gummies Cross-Price Elasticity of Demand Complement or Substitute Frizzles Mookies
Answer:
Cross Price Elasticity of Demand is a measure of the complimentary or substitutional nature of two goods. It enables one to know if goods go together or are replacements for each other.
When the Cross Price Elasticity is Positive then both of the goods are Substitutes.
This is because when the price of one increased, some people abandoned it and went to the other one which then increased the demand of the latter.
If the Cross Price Elasticity is negative then both the goods are compliments because when the price of one increased, people decided to stop buying it and because the other good is a compliment (goes together) people didn't buy the latter either thereby reducing its demand.
The formula for Cross Price Elasticity is,
= % Change in Quantity Demanded of Good A / % Change in price of Good B
Guppy Gummies and Frizzles.
= -4%/ 5%
= - 0.8%
Cross Price Elasticity is Negative so they are Compliments.
It IS RECOMMENDED to market Frizzles with Guppy Gummies.
Guppy gummies and Mookies
= 5% / 5%
= 1
Cross Price Elasticity is positive so these are Substitutes.
It is therefore NOT recommended to market Mookies with Guppy Gummies.

In the above table, find the Treasury bond that matures in May 2036. What is the asked price of this bond in dollars?
Answer:
$1,247.12
Explanation:
For computing the asked price we need to apply the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below
Given that,
Future value = $1,000
Rate of interest = 4.151% ÷ 2 = 2.076%
NPER = 17 years × 2 = 34 years
The 20 years come from May 2019 to May 2036
PMT = $1,000 × 6.193% ÷ 2 = $30.965
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the present value or the ask price is $1,247.12
