Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$8,588

Explanation:

income tax brackets 2019

tax rate         income

10%       $0 to $19,400

12%       $19,401 to $78,950

total ordinary income = $64,200 + $33,500 + $1,500 = $99,200

taxable ordinary income = $99,200 - $24,400 = $74,800

tax liability = ($19,400 x 10%) + ($55,400 x 12%) = $1,940 + $6,648 = $8,588

long term capital gains = $13,200 - $10,100 = $3,100

since their total taxable income is below $78,750, their long term capital gains tax rate is 0.

total tax liability = $8,588

(D)-$387,500

Answers

Answer:

Option B, $387,500, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Total number of Swiss franc ( contract) = 100

Size of contract = 125000

Purchase price = $0.9535

Settlement price = $0.98450  

Below is the calculation:

Gain on the trade = ( Price at the date of settlement - purchase price ) x number of contracts x size of the contract

Answers

Answer:

The ending inventory using the periodic inventory system and the weighted average cost method is $36.48

Explanation:

Weighted Average Method.

The average cost of goods held is recalculated each time a new delivery of goods is received. Issues are then priced out at this weighted average cost.

First Calculate the average cost per unit

average cost per unit = Total cost / total units

                                     = ($30 + $60 + $56) / 24

                                     = $6.08

Then calculate ending inventory cost

ending inventory cost = units at hand × average cost per unit

                                     = 6 units × $6.08333

                                     = $36.48

Conclusion :

The ending inventory using the periodic inventory system and the weighted average cost method is $36.48

Investors expect the market rate of return this year to be 14.50%. The expected rate of return on a stock with a beta of 1.2 is currently 17.40%. If the market return this year turns out to be 12.10%, how would you revise your expectation of the rate of return on the stock?

Answers

Answer:

14.52%

Explanation:

The computation of the rate of return on the stock is shown below:-

The expected rate of return on the stock = Beta × (Rate of return - Market rate of return)

= 1.2 × (0.121 - 0.145)

= - 2.88%

So, the expected rate of return on the stock = Current percentage - expected rate of return on the stock

= 0.174 - 0.0288

= 14.52%

Therefore we simply applied the above formulas

Westover Winds just paid a dividend of $2.10 per share. The company will increase its dividend by 8 percent next year and will then reduce its dividend growth rate by 2 percentage points per year until it reaches the industry average of 2 percent dividend growth, after which the company will keep a constant growth rate forever. What is the price of this stock today given a required return of 11 percent?

Answers

Answer:

Price today = $26.54

Explanation:

The price of the stock can be calculated using the Dividend Discount Model (DDM). The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.

The formula to calculate the price of the stock is attached.

Price today = 2.1 * (1+0.08) / (1+0.11)  +  2.1 * (1+0.08) * (1+0.06) / (1+0.11)^2  +  

2.1 * (1+0.08) * (1+0.06) * (1+0.04) / (1+0.11)^3  +  

[(2.1 * (1+0.08) * (1+0.06) * (1+0.04) * (1+0.02)) / (0.11 - 0.02)] / (1+0.11)^3

Price today = $26.54

The calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the firm plans to pay in 40 days than in 30 days.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

The terms of 2/10, net 30 implies that the firm is entitled to receive a 2 percent discount if it makes payment within 10 days for the goods it bought on term but the seller expects to pay full amount of the amount due in 30 days if it fails to pay within 10 days.

However, since there will be no more discount after the discount period, the cost of trade credit will continue to fall longer the payment is extended. For this question this can be demonstrated using the formula for calculating the cost of trade discount as follows:

Cost of trade discount = {[1 + (discount rate / (1 - discount rate))]^(365/days after discount)} - 1 ................... (1)

We can now applying equation (1) as follows:

For payment in 40 days

Cost of trade credit (payment in 40 days)= {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/40)} - 1 = 0.202436246672765, or 20%

For payment in 30 days

Cost of trade credit (payment in 30 days) = {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/30)} - 1 = 0.278643315029666, or 28%

Conclusion

Since the 20% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 40 days is lower than 28% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 30 days, the correct option is A. True. That is, the calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the firm plans to pay in 40 days than in 30 days.

What are the three major components of DSSs, and what do they do? How do DSSs help in tax planning? How do DSSs help in website planning and adjustment? Please state your answers in 2-3 page paper in APA format. Include citations and sources in APA style.

Answers

Answer is given below

Explanation:

Most of the DSS consists of three main components: the Data Management Module, the Model Management Module and the Dialogue Module. These modules help (1) file the request in a user-friendly way, (2) find large amounts of data to focus on relevant facts, (3) process the data through the desired model, and (4) the results. Output in one or several formats is easy to understand. These steps follow the decisive sequence described by Herbert Simon.  There are actually some applications that people don't think of as DSS. Turbotax, taxcats and other tax-making applications have been developed over the years to do more than just fill out help forms. With the ultimate goal of paying taxpayers, they come up with sophisticated principles to help taxpayers create the best strategy for choosing options. For example, applications compare filing status and deduction options: which policy is less common taxes, filing as two individuals or filing jointly as spouses? Should deductions be reduced, or standard exemptions taken? Small education loan, or large education exemption? Based on the combination of taxable income and deductions taken, the apps warn customers of the possibility of being audited by the Internal Revenue Service and give them the opportunity to modify the deduction. Apps remind users of optional reductions, tell them what the exception does and make it easier for filers to make decisions. When customers complete their tax preparation for the previous year, they can plan their tax for the coming year based on their total income, type of wages (wages, occupation, capital gains, etc.). And how much the pension funds, which serve as a tax to reduce tax arrears for the coming year, can contribute to earnings and other benefits as most companies use the web as a marketing, sales and customer support tool, the decisions to make websites are very important. Some companies offer DSS designed specifically to analyze the behavior of shoppers on their sites, such as pages viewed, pages viewed, options clicked and page buyers sorted. For example, Datanatics, Inc. The G2 provides an analysis system that analyzes how visitors navigate through a site. Managers can be impressed that 30 percent of shoppers who follow a specific order of web pages are buying an item. However, the software may reveal that another unexpected upside order ends when 90 percent of shoppers buy another item. This can lead to the decision to increase those pages or buy a few pages between the home page and the last page before finishing.

For every $1 in assets, the firm earned $5.1 in net income. For every $1 in assets, the firm paid $5.1 in expenses during the period.

Answers

Answer:

For every $1 in assets, the firm produced $5.1 in net sales during the period.

Explanation:

The formula to compute the total asset turnover ratio is shown below:

Total Asset turnover ratio = Net Sales ÷ Average Total Asset

where,

Net sales come after deducting the sales discounts, and other expenses

And, the average total assets could be computed by taking an average of opening and closing total assets

So, the total asset turnover shows that for every $1 of assets would create $5.1 of sales

Hence, the first option is correct

Answers

Answer:

The weighted-average unit contribution margin is $7.40

Explanation:

The weighted average unit contribution margin is given by the below formula:

weighted-average unit contribution margin=Wa*Margin of A+Wb*Margin of B

Wa is the weight of product A=70% or 0.70

Margin of product A is $8.04

Wb is the weight of product B =30% or 0.30

Margin of product B is $5.92

weighted-average unit contribution margin=(0.70*$8.04)+(0.30*$5.92)

weighted-average unit contribution margin=$ 7.40  

The weighted-average unit contribution margin is $7.40

What is the weighted-average unit?

Although, The weighted average unit contribution margin is given by the below formula:

weighted-average unit contribution margin=Wa*Margin of A+Wb*Margin of B Wa is that the weight of product A=70% or 0.70

The margin of product A is $8.04

Wb is that the weight of product B =30% or 0.30

The margin of product B is $5.92

weighted-average unit contribution margin=(0.70*$8.04)+(0.30*$5.92)

Zone of service is the period where there is intensive service to be rendered to customers because of the number present per hour.  Since they can serve 162 customers per hour, one can estimate that they would be serving about a thousand customers per night within a six-hour period.  In the zone of service, every hand would usually be on deck and the tables and chairs would be fully occupied with customers making their food and drink demands.

Assume that the following data characterize the hypothetical economy of Trance: money supply = $200 billion; quantity of money demanded for transactions = $160 billion; quantity of money demanded as an asset = $10 billion at 12 percent interest, increasing by $10 billion for each 2-percentage-point fall in the interest rate.
a. What is the equilibrium interest rate in Trance? _____ percent.
b. At the equilibrium interest rate, what is the quantity of money supplied, the money demanded, the amount of money demanded for transaction, and the amount of money demanded as an asset in trace?
Quantity of money supplied = $ _____ billion
Quantity of money demanded = $ _____ billion
Amount of money demanded for transactions = $ _____ billion
Amount of money demanded as an asset = $_____ billion

Answers

Answer:

a. What is the equilibrium interest rate in Trance?

The equilibrium interest rate is 6%, because it is the interest rate that brings the money supply and the money demand to equilibrium.

At 12% interest rate, the quantity of money demanded is 170 billion, while the money supply is 200 billion.

The quantity of moned demanded as an asset increases by 10 billion if the interest rate falls by two percentage points. Thus, if the interest rate falls 6 percentage points, the quantity of money demanded as an asset will increase by 30 billion, reaching 40 billion.

At this point, money demand is:

$160 billion (money demanded for transactions) + $40 billion (money demanded as an asset) = $200 billion.

Which is the same as the money supply.

b. At the equilibrium interest rate, what is the quantity of money supplied, the money demanded, the amount of money demanded for transaction, and the amount of money demanded as an asset in trace?

The quantity of money supplied is still 200 billion.

The quantity of money demanded is 200 billion.

The amount of money demanded for transactions is 160 billion.

And the amount of money demanded as an asset is 40 billion.

Stock Y has a lower expected growth rate than Stock X. d. One year from now, Stock X should have the higher price. e. Stock Y has the higher expected capital gains yield.

Answers

Answer:

a. Stock X pays a higher dividend per share than Stock Y.

Explanation:

stock x, dividend = $1.25

$25 = $1.25 / (12% - g)

12% - g = $1.25 / $25

12% - g = 5%

g = 7%

stock y, dividend = $0.75

$25 = $0.75 / (10% - g)

10% - g = $0.75 / $25

10% - g = 3%

g = 7%

both growth rates are equal, what varies are the dividends that the stocks yield and the required rates of return

A seller accepts a contingent backup offer from a second buyer and notifies the first buyer under a release clause. The first buyer decides to remove the sale of buyer's property contingency. What happens next

Answers

A stock has an expected return of 12.6 percent, the risk-free rate is 7 percent, and the market risk premium is 10 percent. What must the beta of this stock be

Answers

Answer:

0.56

Explanation:

In this question we used the Capital Asset Pricing Model formula i.e shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium

12.6% = 7% + Beta × 10%

12.6% - 7% = Beta × 10%

5.6% = Beta × 10%

So, the beta is

= 5.6% ÷ 10%

= 0.56

Hence, the beta of the stock is 0.56

A company issued 8%, 15-year bonds with a par value of $550,000 that pay interest semiannually. The market rate on the date of issuance was 8%. The journal entry to record each semiannual interest payment is:

Answers

Answer:

                                                               Debit                             Credit

Bond Interest Expense                        $22,000

   Cash                                                                                        $22,000

Being semi-annual interest payment on bonds

Explanation:

The semi-interest payment on the bonds equals

Coupon rate × par Value × 1/2

Semi-annual interest payment = 8%× 550,000 × 1/2=22,000

Semi- annual payment = $22,000

The accounting entry to record the interest payment each time payment is made would be:

                                                               Debit                             Credit

Bond Interest Expense                        $22,000

   Cash                                                                                        $22,000

Being semi-annual interest payment on bonds

Note that interest payment is an expense, hence to increase an expense the expense account is debit. On the other hand. the interest payment is a cash outflow, which reduces the cash asset, hence the cash account is credited.

Sprint allocates general plant management costs on the basis of the number of production employees and plant security costs on the basis of space occupied by the production departments. In November, the following overhead costs were recorded:

Melting Department direct overhead $110,000
Molding Department direct overhead 400,000
General plant management 100,000
Plant security 50,000

Other pertinent data follow:

Melting Molding
Number of employees 35 40
Space occupied (square feet) 10,000 20,000
Machine hours 10,000 2,000
Direct labor hours 4,000 20,000

Required:
a. Prepare a schedule allocating general plant management costs and plant security costs to the Melting and Molding Departments.
b. Determine the total departmental overhead costs for the Melting and Molding Departments.

Answers

Answer:

a.

General Plant Management Costs

Cost is $100,000

These costs are allocated on the basis of number of production employees.

Melting Department employs 35 workers and Molding employs 40 for a total of 75.

Melting Department = [tex]\frac{35}{75} * 100,000[/tex]

Melting Department = $46,666,67

Molding Department = [tex]\frac{40}{75} * 100,000[/tex]

Molding Department = $53,333.33

Plant Security Costs

Cost is $50,000

These costs are allocated on the basis of space occupied by the production departments.

Melting Department occupies 10,000ft² and Molding occupies 20,000 ft²  for a total of 30,000 ft²

Melting Department = [tex]\frac{10,000}{30,000} * 50,000[/tex]

Melting Department = $16,666,67

Molding Department = [tex]\frac{20,000}{30,000} * 50,000[/tex]

Molding Department = $33,333.33

2. Melting Department

= 110.000 + 46,666.67 + 16,666.67

= $173,333.34

Molding Department

= 400,000 + 53,333.33 + 33,333.33

= $486,666.66

When the market rate of interest was 12%, Halprin Corporation issued $257,000, 11%, 10-year bonds that pay interest annually. Use the present value tables below. The selling price of this bond issue was?

Answers

Answer:

$242,478

Explanation:

The computation of the selling price of this bond issue is shown below:-

Issue price of bonds = Present value of interest + Present value of maturity payment

= ($257,000 × 11% × 5.65022) + ($257,000 × 0.32197)

= $159,731.72 + $82,746.29

= $242,478.01

or

= $242,478

Therefore for computing the issue price of bonds we simply applied the above formula.

Samsco has current after-tax operating income of $65 million and a cost of capital of 9.5%. Assume that the firm is in stable growth, growing 3% a year forever and that the reinvestment rate is 35%. What is the return on invested capital

Answers

Answer:

10%

Explanation:

Return on Invested Capital = After-tax operating income / Invested capital

After-tax operating income = 65,000,000

Invested capital = ?

Invested capital = After-tax operating income  * (1 - Reinvestment rate ) / (Cost of capital - Expected growth rate)

After-tax operating income  = 65,000,000

Reinvestment rate = 35%

Cost of capital = 9.5%

Expected growth rate= 3.0%

Invested capital = 65,000,000 * (1 - 35%) / (9.5% - 3%)

Invested capital = 65,000,000 * 65% / 6.5%

Invested capital  = $650,000,000

Hence, Return on Invested Capital  = $65,000,000 / $650,000,000

Return on Invested Capital  = 0.10

Return on Invested Capital  = 10%

The placing of direct materials into the production process is recorded by an entry debiting:_________.A. Materials Expense.
B. Raw Materials Inventory.
C. Work in Process Inventory.
D. Finished Goods Inventory.

Answers

Explanation:

When Raw Materials are purchased they are simply put into the Materials Account.

When the company needs to start working on them however, they will transfer the raw materials to the Work in Progress account which records the Direct Materials and Direct Labor that are used in the Production process. By Debuting this account they indicate that the materials in it have increased.

One of the limitations of aggregate accounting is that: Multiple Choice it includes market transactions that should be excluded. it doesn't take depreciation into account. it measures market activity, not social welfare. there isn't enough data available in most developed countries to have national income accounts.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: it measures market activity, not social welfare.

Explanation:

Aggregate accounting is the process of collecting different data from almost all financial accounts of a family or individual in a single location.

Therefore, although this is an efficient indicator for measuring a country's economic activity, it cannot be used as a measure of social well-being, as it does not understand essential aspects that promote human well-being. One of its limitations is that the index does not include non-market transactions, the degree of social income inequality, environmental degradation, the negative externalities of the productive system, etc.
