You are given the following information for Ted’s Dread Co.: sales = $82,000; costs = $57,700; addition to retained earnings = $7,500; dividends paid = $3,320; interest expense = $3,030; tax rate = 25 percent. Calculate the depreciation expense for the company.
Answer:$6,843.33=Depreciation
Explanation:
To Calculate the depreciation expense for the company
Net income = Dividends + Addition to retained earnings
Net income = $3,320 + 7,500
Net income = $10,820
Also,
Net income = Taxable income - (Taxable income)(Tax rate)
Net income = Taxable income(1 - Tax rate)
Therefore,
Taxable income = Net income / (1 - Tax rate)
Taxable income = $10,820 / (1 - 0.25
Taxable income = $10,820/0.75 =14,426.67
But
EBIT -interest = taxable income,So
EBIT = Taxable income + Interest
EBIT = $14,426.67+3,030
EBIT = 17,456.67
EBIT = Sales - Costs - Depreciation
$17,456.67 = $82000 - 57,700 - Depreciation
$17,456.67= 24,300-Deprecistion
Depreciation =24,300-17456.67 =
$6,843.33
You are an analyst working for a mutual fund. Your job is to select stocks for the fund. You want to select only one of the following tech stocks to add into your current portfolio: Appscale, Bitwise, and Carbivore. All three stocks are similar along many metrics. They are all in the technology space and have been growing very fast over the past few years. However, it is hard to get all the information for those three stocks, and so far you have collected only the following relevant information to help you make the decision: Appscale is a tech firm that focuses on developing and integrating mobile apps. Reading through analyst reports and based on your own judgement, you think the cost of equity for Appscale is 12%. Appscale estimated earnings per share next year are $10. It pays all its earnings as dividends. Bitwise is a fintech company that is involved in Bitcoin and blockchain technology.

Tiago makes three models of camera lens. Its product mix and contribution margin per unit follow: Percentage of Unit sales Contribution Margin per unit Lens A 25 % $ 38 Lens B 40 30 Lens C 35 43 Required: 1. Determine the weighted-average contribution margin per unit. 2. Determine the number of units of each product that Tiago must sell to break even if fixed costs are $187,000. 3. Determine how many units of each product must be sold to generate a profit of $73,000.
Answer:
A. $36.55
B. 5116 units
C. 7114 units
Explanation:
Requirement 1: Weighted average contribution margin per unit
Lens A = $38 x 25% = $9.5
Lens B = $30 x 40% = $12
Lens C = $43 x 35% = $15.05
Total Contribution margin per unit = $36.55
Requirement 2: Breakeven if fixed cost is $187,000
Break even point (units) = Fixed cost / Contribution per unit
Break even point (units) = 187,000/36.55
Break even point (units) = 5116 units
Lens A = 5116 x 25% = 1279 units
Lens B = 5116 x 40% = 2046 units
Lens C = 5116 x 35% = 1791 units
Requirement 3: How many units to be sold to generate $73,000 profit
Required units = Fixed cost - required profit / contribution per unit
Required units = ($187,000-$73,000)/$36.55
Required units = 7114 units
Lens A = 7114 x 25% = 1779 units
Lens B = 7114 x 40% = 2846 units
Lens C = 7114 x 35% = 2489 units

One way in which monopolistic competition differs from oligopoly is there are no barriers to entry in oligopolies.Immersive Reader
Answer:
The statement is false.
Explanation:
Oligopoly is a market situation where the market of a given good or service is dominated by a few strong, powerful providers. It could be described as a mix between monopoly and perfect competition, where there are several players in the market, but not so many that they can not influence the market price, and in which those providers are strong enough to establish a monopoly if they could. Examples of oligopoly markets are the market for cars and oil, among others, in which there are few but powerful enterprises in the market.
In oligopolies there are almost as many barriers as in monopolies: although there is competition between companies, for a new company it is almost impossible to enter the market since prices, quality and customers are retained by companies already established in the market.

A client believes that XYZZY stock has topped out in price and is ready for a steep drop. What recommendation would give the customer the smallest profit if this occurs
Answer: Buy XYZZ stock and sell an XYZZ call
Explanation:
Since the buyer seems convinced that XYZZ stock has bottomed its price, he should purchase the stock since it has gotten to its cheapest Point.
And since he believes that XYZZ's price would rebound soon, He should exercise a little patience and not sell at a call option for XYZZ. Because if he attempts to sell at a call option then his earnings becomes very limited, since the price set at the call option would be very low.
My best advice would be for him to hold on to XYZZ stock for a while and allow for its price to rebound.

Solis Company uses the FIFO method to compute equivalent units. It has 4,000 units in beginning work in process, 20% complete as to conversion costs and 50% complete as to materials costs, 66,000 units started, and 6,000 units in ending work in process, 30% complete as to conversion costs, and 80% complete as to materials cost. How much are the equivalent units for materials under the FIFO method
Answer:
The equivalent units for materials under the FIFO method are 68,800 units
Explanation:
Equivalent units is a measurement of number of units completed in terms of percentage of inputs of production in output inventory.
Calculation of Equivalent Units under FIFO method.
To finish Opening work in process ( 4,000 units × 50%) = 2,000
Started and Completed units (66,000 - 4,000) × 100% = 62,000
Closing Work In Process (6,000 × 80%) = 4,800
Equivalent units of Production = 68,800
Conclusion :
The equivalent units for materials under the FIFO method are 68,800 units.
Western Electric has 31,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $77 and a rate of return of 13.10 percent. The firm has 7,200 shares of 7.60 percent preferred stock outstanding at a price of $94.00 per share. The preferred stock has a par value of $100. The outstanding debt has a total face value of $398,000 and currently sells for 110 percent of face. The yield to maturity on the debt is 8.02 percent. What is the firm's weighted average cost of capital if the tax rate is 39 percent
Answer:
Weighted average cost of capital = 11.10%
Explanation:
Market value of common stock = $31,000 * 77 = $2,387,000
Market value of preferred shares = $7,200 * 94 = 676,800
Market value of debt = $398,000 * 110% = 437,800
Total market value = Market value of common stock + Market value of preferred shares + Market value of debt
= 2,387,000 + 676,800 + 437,800
= 3,501,600
Weight of common stock = Market value of common stock / Total market value
= $2,387,000 / $3,501,600
= 0.6817
Weight of debt = Market value of preferred shares / Total market value
=437,800 / 3,501,600
= 0.1250
Weight of preferred stock = Market value of debt / Total market value
= 676,800 / 3,501,600
= 0.1933
Preferred dividend = 7.6% of 100 = 7.6
Cost of preferred stock = (Preferred dividend / price) * 100
Cost of preferred stock = (7.6 / 94) * 100
Cost of preferred stock = 8.0851%
Weighted average cost of capital = (Weight of equity *cost of equity) + (Weight of preferred stock * cost of preferred stock) + (Weight of debt * after tax cost of deb t)
Weighted average cost of capital = (0.6817 * 13.10%) + (0.1933 * 0.080851) + (0.1250 *0.0802*(1 - 0.39)
Weighted average cost of capital = 0.089303 + 0.015628 + 0.006115
Weighted average cost of capital = 0.1110
Weighted average cost of capital = 11.10%
"Total revenue equals the price multiplied by the quantity. The relative change price and quantity is given by the concept of ________________."
Answer:
Elasticity
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.

Skolits Corp. issued 15-year bonds 2 years ago at a coupon rate of 7.3 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments. If these bonds currently sell for 103 percent of par value, what is the YTM?
Answer:
6.94%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity can be computed using excel rate function found below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the coupons that bond has left to pay i.e 26 semiannual coupons in 13 years
pmt is the semiannual coupon amount i.e $1000*7.3%*6/12=36.5
pv is the current market price i.e 103%*$1000=$1030
fv is the face value of $1000
=rate(26,36.5,-1030,1000)=3.47%
semiannual yield =3.47%
annual yield =3.47% *2=6.94%

Major Manuscripts, Inc., is currently operating at maximum capacity. All costs, assets, and current liabilities vary directly with sales. The tax rate and the dividend payout ratio will remain constant. In 2013, no new equity will be raised and sales are projected to increase by 10 percent. Construct the pro formas for 2013 and answer the following questions (show your work!).
Projected total assets= $______
Projected retained earnings= $______
Additional new debt required= $______
Answer: Projected total assets = $10,318
Projected retained earnings = $4,675.30
Additional new debt required = $537.70
Explanation:
external financing needed ( EFN )= [(total assets/total sales) x ( sales )] - [(total current liabilities/total sales) x ( sales )] - [profit margin x forecasted sales in $ x (1 - dividend payout ratio)]
total assets = $9,380,
projected total assets = $9,380 x 1.1 = $10,318
total sales = $7,800
sales = $780
current liabilities = $1,550
profit margin = net income / sales
= $410 / $7,800
= 0.052564
forecasted sales = $7,800 x 1.1 = $8,580
dividends payout ratio = dividends / net income
= $187 / $410
= 0.4561
Therefore:
EFN = [($9,380/$7,800) x ($780)] - [($1,550/$7,800) x ($780)] - [0.052564 x $8,580 x (1 - 0.4561)]
EFN = $938 - $155 - $245.30
EFN = $537.70
projected retained earnings = current retained earnings - projected net income - projected dividends
= $4,430 + $451 - $205.70
= $4,675.30
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a debit balance of $800 at the end of the year (before adjustment), and bad debt expense is estimated at 3% of credit sales. If credit sales are $556,000, the amount of the adjusting entry to record the estimate of the uncollectible accounts
Answer:
$15,880
Explanation:
The Bad Debt Expense = $16,680 ($556,000 x 3%)
This will be credited to the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and debited to the Bad Debt Expense account. When balancing the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts (the Uncollectible Accounts), the $800 debit balance will be netted off to arrive at $15,880 as the balance.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a contra asset (Accounts Receivable) account. It is a way for prudently providing for credit losses. The Bad Debt Expense account is the account where the expense for uncollectibles for the period is charged.
An office building owned by Milo was destroyed by Hurricane Mel on September 25, Year 4. On October 2, Year 4, the President of the United States declared the area where the office building was located a federal disaster area. Milo received settlement of his insurance claim for the destruction of his building on January 2, Year 5. In order to qualify for nonrecognition of gain on this involuntary conversion, what is the last date for Milo to acquire qualified replacement property
Answer:
December 31, year 9
Explanation:
Here, we want to state that date that is possible for Milo to acquire qualified replacement property.
In order to avoid being taxed on a gain resulting from an involuntary conversion, the property subject to the conversion must be replaced within a specified time, measured from the end of the calendar year in which the proceeds are received.
Generally, the period is 2 years, but it is 3 years when the involuntary conversion results from government condemnation or eminent domain and is extended to 4 years when the loss is in connection with a declared federal disaster area.
We are told from the question that Milo received the recovery on January 2, Year 5, the property would have to be replaced within 4 years from the end of Year 5 or by December 31, Year 9
"Suppose a firm wants to take advantage of an upward-sloping yield curve. If the firm believes that interest rates will stay constant and it wants to use the current yield curve to bolster profits, which approach should the firm follow?"a. Conservative approach b. Aggressive approach c. Maturity matching approach
Answer: b. Aggressive approach
Explanation:
The Aggressive approach refers to using short term finance to finance temporary working capital and some of permanent working capital.
When facing an upward sloping yield curve which means that interest rates are expected to.rise in future, it is better to use the current rates to bolster profit. By engaging in an Aggressive approach, the company can borrow now to fund their operations as the Aggressive approach involves using short term financing to cater for working capital. This will keep interest costs at a minimum because they will.not be calculated based on the impending increase in interest rates but rather on current short term rates.
Suppose the U.S. dollar-euro exchange rate is 1.11.1 dollars per euro, and the U.S. dollar-Mexican peso rate is 0.10.1 dollars per peso. What is the euro-peso rate? nothing euros per Mexican peso. (Enter your response rounded to three decimal places.)
Answer:
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
1 euro=1.11 dollars
1 peso=0.10 dollars
Hence, 11.10 peso=1.11 dollares
So, 1 euro=11.10 peso
Therefore, 1/11.10 euro=1 peso
0.09009 euro=1 peso
The euro-peso rate is 0.09009 euro=1 peso
A North Face retail store in Chicago sells 500 jackets each month. Each jacket costs the store $100 and the company has an annual holding cost of 25 percent. The fixed cost of a replenishment order (including transportation cost) is $100. The store currently places a replenishment order for Q.
1. What is the annual holding and ordering cost?
2. On average, how long does a jacket spend in inventory?
3. If the retail store wants to minimize ordering and holding cost, what order size do you recommend?
4. How much would the optimal order reduce holding and ordering cost relative to the current policy?
Answer:
(1) The annual holding cost is =$6250, The ordering costs is = 500 units
(2) The total cost is = $7450
(3)224 unit
(4) $1,864.30
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The annual demand = 520 units * 12
= 6,240 units
The cost per order = $100 per order
The Carrying Cost = 0.25% * $100
= 25 per unit per year
Thus
(1) The Ordering quantity = 500 units every month
The annual holding cost =0.5*quantity ordered*holding cost
The Annual Holding cost = 0.5*500*25
Annual Holding cost =$6250
(2) The ordering (Annual)cost = number of orders *cost per order
Annual ordering cost =(500*12/500)*100
Annual ordering cost =$1200
Total cost = 6250+1200=7450
(3)Thus
EOQ=(2*D*S/h)^0.5
EOQ=(2*6240*100/25^)0.5
EOQ=223.43
=224 unit
(4)The ordering cost =(6240/224)*100=2785.70
Holding cost=0.5*224*25
=2800
Total cost= 2785.70+2800
Total cost=5585.70
Total savings = 7450 - 5585.70
= $1,864.30
Peroni Corporation sold a parcel of land valued at $300,000. Its basis in the land was $250,000. For the land, Peroni received $75,000 in cash in the current year and a note providing Peroni with $225,000 in the subsequent year. What is Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year, respectively
Answer:
Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year is $12,502 and $37,507
Explanation:
In order to calculate Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year we would have to calculate first the Gross profit on sale with the following formula:
Gross profit on sale=(parcel of land sold-land basis)/parcel of land sold
Gross profit on sale=($300,000-$250,000)/$300,000
Gross profit on sale=16.67%
Hence, Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year would be as follows:
current year=amount received in cash*Gross profit on sale
current year=$75,000*16.67%
current year=$12,502
subsequent year=$225,000*16.67%
subsequent year=$37,507
Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year is $12,502 and $37,507

In large organizations, the potential exists for different parts of an organization to pursue its own goals rather than the overall company goals. Proper _______ can help to resolve conflicts when they arise
Answer:
Objectives
Explanation:
Generally, organizations are required to set short or medium-term objectives to ensure there's an effective customer relationships management, improve worker's efficiency or productivity and more importantly to increase their revenues and profits. These objectives are usually drafted by the executive or top management of an organization and it's mandatory that all the employees are diligently working towards achieving this set goals.
In large organizations, the potential exists for different parts of an organization to pursue its own goals rather than the overall company goals. Proper objectives can help to resolve conflicts when they arise.
For instance, the sales department in a bid to meet daily or monthly targets may result to unauthorized marketing channels and procedures which may be in contrast to the objectives of the human resources department.
With proper objectives such as policies and guidelines, conflicts of goals would be mitigated as various departments would ensure their activities are in tandem with the overall company goals. This can be easily achieved by appointing functional managers who have an oversight function of supervising the employees in their departments at all times.

I have $1,000,000 which I can use to buy C$1,250,000 (C$ = $1,000,000 x 1.25). Then I would use my C$1,250,000 to buy €812,500 (€ = C$1,250,000 x 0.65). Finally, if you use your €812,500 you can purchase $1,300,000 ($ = €812,500 x 1.6).
We started with $1,000,000 and ended up with $1,300,000 by purchasing Canadian dollars first and then Euros.

Service Cost for the year = $39,500

In the context of project management, a task duration is always the same as the amount of work (effort) it takes to finish the task. true or false?
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The statement that says that in the context of project management, a task duration is always the same as the amount of work (effort) it takes to finish the task is false because the effort is the time a person needs to finish a task while the duration is the period of time that a person has to finish it. For example, an employee has a task that takes forty hours of work to finish it but he has a month to do it. In this case, the effort is forty hours but the task duration is one month.
If the total debt ratio is 36%, and the allowable mortgage debt ratio is 28%, which of the following debt ratios would a loan applicant qualify for if:
a. The loan applicant's gross monthly income is $2,500, with a mortgage payment of $600
b. A car payment of $250, and minimum monthly credit card payment of $75
Answer:
The loan applicant would qualify for the mortgage debt ratio in option a because his mortgage debt ratio is 24% and the allowable mortgage debt ratio is 28%.
Explanation:
First, you have to calculate the debt ratio in each case. It is calculated by dividing the total debt by the income.
a. Debt= $600
Income= $2,500
Mortgage debt ratio=600/2,500= 0.24→24%
b. Debt=$600+$250+$75=$925
Income=$2,500
Total Debt ratio=925/2,500= 0.37→37%
The loan applicant would qualify for the mortgage debt ratio because his mortgage debt ratio is 24% and the allowable mortgage debt ratio is 28%. The loan applicant would not qualify for the total debt ratio because his ratio is 37% and the allowable total debt ratio is 36%.
Hudson Corporation will pay a dividend of $3.60 per share next year. The company pledges to increase its dividend by 4.60 percent per year indefinitely. If you require a return of 7.00 percent on your investment, how much will you pay for the company's stock today
Answer:
The maximum that should be paid for the stock of the company today is $146.64
Explanation:
The current price of the stock can be calculated using the constant growth model of DDM. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.
The formula for the price of the stock today under the constant growth model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
D0 is the most recent dividend paid
D0 * (1+g) is the dividend expected to be paid next period
r is the required rate of return
g is the growth rate in dividends
As we don't have a D0 but instead are given a D1, the constant growth rate will be applied from year 2 and we will calculate the price of the stock at year 1 using the constant growth model and discount is back one year to calculate the price of the stock today.
P1 = D1 * (1+g) / r - g
P1 = 3.6 * (1+0.046) / (0.07 - 0.046)
P1 = $156.9
Price of the stock today is,
P0 = P1 / (1+r)
P0 = 156.9 / (1+0.07)
P0 = $146.635514 rounded off to $146.64
