Answer the below case problem, giving the legal issue, the governing law and the rationale in support of your conclusion.
Arthur Jensen, Inc., was a corporation engaged in the housing construction business.
Arthur Jensen set up and was the sole owner and president of the corporation. Alaska Valuation Service [AVS] conducted housing appraisals for Jensen on numerous occasions over the years. When AVS took the orders for appraisals, it was not aware that it was dealing with a corporation. It believed that it was dealing directly with Jensen [i.e., as a sole proprietor]. Jensen never specifically informed AVS of his status as the president of Arthur Jensen, Inc. When AVS was not paid for appraisal services that it had performed, AVS sued Arthur Jensen, attempting to hold him personally liable for the unpaid appraisals.
Arthur Jensen argued that he could not be personally liable because he had acted on behalf of his corporation.
1. Decide the case based on the above stated facts.
2. Assuming Arthur Jensen could be held personally liable, how could Arthur
Jensen have better protected himself? [we discussed this in class]
Answer:
1. Decide the case based on the above stated facts.
Corporations provide limited liability to their owners, and one person corporations are legal in all states. Depending on how Arthur handled his business, the corporate veil might or not be lifted. If he separated the corporate account and managed the corporation separately for his other assets, then he is not liable.
On the other hand, if he paid the bills using his personal account, or used the corporation's assets as his own, then the outcome might change. We are not given enough details.
2. Assuming Arthur Jensen could be held personally liable, how could Arthur Jensen have better protected himself?
Simple, he should sign as the president of the corporation and pay using the corporation's account.

Genesis Scents has two divisions: the Cologne Division and the Bottle Division. The Bottle Division produces containers that can be used by the Cologne Division. The Bottle Division's variable manufacturing cost is $2, shipping cost is $0.10, and the external sales price is $3. No shipping costs are incurred on sales to the Cologne Division, and the Cologne Division can purchase similar containers in the external market for $2.60. The Bottle Division has sufficient capacity to meet all external market demands in addition to meeting the demands of the Cologne Division. Using the general rule, the transfer price from the Bottle Division to the Cologne Division would be:
Answer:
Hence, the minimum transfer price = $2
Explanation:
Transfer price is the price at which goods are exchange between branches or divisions of the same group
Where a division is operating at the less than the existing capacity, to optimist the group profit, the minimum transfer price should be set as follows
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost
It is worthy of note that there is no opportunity cost associated with any transfer to the Cologne division because the Bottle division is currently having excess capacity- it can meets all demands both external and internal.
Therefore, any offering price equal to or above the variable manufacturing cost of $2 would be acceptable and optimize the group profit.
Hence, the minimum transfer price = $2

At December 31, DePaul Corporation had the following cumulative temporary differences associated with its operations:
Estimated warranty expense, $36 million temporary difference: expense recorded in the year of the sale; tax-deductible when paid (one-year warranty).
Depreciation expense, $116 million temporary difference: straight-line in the income statement; MACRS on the tax return. Income from installment sales of properties, $60 million temporary difference:
income recorded in the year of the sale; taxable when received equally over the next five years.
Rent revenue collected in advance, $36 million temporary difference; taxable in the year collected; recorded as income when the performance obligation is satisfied in the following year.
Required: Assuming DePaul will show a single noncurrent net amount in its December 31 balance sheet, indicate that amount and whether it is a net deferred tax asset or liability. The tax rate is 25%. (Enter your answer in millions (i.e., 10,000,000 should be entered as 10).)
Answer: $26 million Net deferred tax liability
Explanation:
Net deferred tax liability (asset) = (Taxable temporary differences - Deductible temporary differences)* Tax rate
Taxable temporary differences = Depreciation expense + Income from installment sales
= 116 + 60
= $176 million
Deductible tax differences = Estimated warranty expense + rent revenue collected in advance
= 36 + 36
= $72 million
Net deferred tax liability (asset) = (176 - 72) * 25%
= $26 million

Answer:
$651.56
$1037.50
$245.57
$969.64
$1543.99
Explanation:
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
a. 400 x (1.05)^10 = $651.56
b. 400 x (1.1)^10 = $1037.50
formula for determining present value is
PV = f / (1 + r)^n
$400/ (1.05)^10 = $245.57
d. $2515 / (1.1)^10 = $969,64
$2515 / (1.05)^10 = $1543.99
Nadine Chelesvig has patented her invention. She is offering a patent manufacturer two contracts for the exclusive right to manufacture and market her product. Plan A calls for an immediate single lump payment to her of $35,000. Plan B calls for an annual payment of $1,200 plus a royalty of $0.40 per unit sold. The remaining life of the patent is 10 years. Nadine uses a MARR of 7 %/year.
a. What must be the uniform annual sales volume of the product for Nadine to be indifferent between the contracts, based on a present worth analysis?
b. If the sales volume is below the volume determined in (a), which contract would the manufacturer prefer?
Answer:
A) 9458 units
B) She would prefer the one with the single lump payment of $35,000 because the present value of the other one would increase with an increase in the units sold.
Explanation:
A) To calculate the uniform annual sales volume based on a present worth analysis, we will make use of the formula for present value of annuity.
Thus;
P = PMT × (1 - ((1/(1 - rⁿ))/r
From the question, we are given;
P = $35,000
PMT = (1200 + 0.4x)
r = 7% = 0.07
n = 10
Thus, Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
(1200 + 0.4x)((1 - (1/(1 + 0.07)^10))/0.07 = 35000
This gives;
(1200 + 0.4x) × 7.0236 = 35000
(1200 + 0.4x) = 35000/7.0236
(1200 + 0.4x) = 4983.2
0.4x = 4983.2 - 1200
0.4x = 3783.2
x = 3783.2/0.4
x = 9458 units
B) She would prefer the one with the single lump payment of $35,000 because the present value of the other one would increase with an increase in the units sold.

5. Hamid has just graduated as a lawyer from an esteemed law school. He confident of getting a job and has already refused a few lower paid jobs.
Answer:
1.James - CYCLICAL UNEMPLOYMENT
Eric frictional unemployment
2.Craig - structural unemployment
3. Sarah cyclical unemployment
4. Hamid - frictional unemployment.
Explanation:
structural unemployment is an unemployment that occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition . Structural unemployment tends to be permanent.
Frictional unemployment . the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job.
Voluntary unemployment : e.g. worker at a fast-food restaurant who quits work and attends college.
Cyclical unemployment : it occurs as a result of fluctuations in the economy. Unemployment would be high in a downturn and low in a boom
LUVFINANCE, Inc. is estimating its WACC. It is operating at its optimal capital structure. Its outstanding bonds have a 12 percent coupon, paid semiannually, a current maturity of 17 years, and sell for $1,162. It has 100,000 bonds outstanding. The firm can issue new 20-year maturity semiannual bonds at par but will incur flotation costs of $50 per bond. The firm could sell, at par, $100 preferred stock that pays a 12 percent annual dividend that is currently selling for $120. The firm currently has 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding. Rollins' beta is 0.94, the risk-free rate is 3.72 percent, and the market risk premium is 6 percent. The common stock currently sells for $100 a share and there are 5,000,000 shares outstanding. The firm's marginal tax rate is 40 percent.
Required:
What is the WACC?
Solution :
Given :
The cost of the debt is yield to the maturity of the bonds.
The yield on the bond is 10%
The tax rate is 40%
After the tax cost of the debt = 10 ( 1- 0.4 )
= 6 %
Add floatation cost at the rate of 5% = 11%
Cost of the preferred stock = [tex]$\frac{\text{dividend}}{\text{price}}$[/tex]
= [tex]$\frac{120}{12}$[/tex] = 10%
The cost of equity = risk free rate + β x market risk premium
= 3.72 + 0.94 x 6
= 9.36%
WACC is weighted average of the individual securities :
Particulars Value per No. of Market value Weight Cost of Product

Litton Company estimates that the factory overhead for the following year will be $1,250,000. The company has decided that the basis for applying factory overhead should be machine hours, which is estimated to be 40,000 hours. The machine hours for the month of April for all of the jobs were 4,780. If the actual factory overhead totaled $141,800, determine the over- or underapplied amount for the month.
Answer:
Overapplied overhead= $7,575
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,250,000 / 40,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $31.25 per machine hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 31.25*4,780
Allocated MOH= $149,375
Finally, the over/under allocation:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 141,800 - 149,375
Overapplied overhead= $7,575
Problem 8-15 Nonconstant Growth [LO1] Metallica Bearings, Inc., is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next nine years because the firm needs to plow back its earnings to fuel growth. The company will pay a dividend of $15 per share 10 years from today and will increase the dividend by 6 percent per year thereafter. If the required return on this stock is 12 percent, what is the current share price
Answer:
$84.14
Explanation:
P9 = Nest dividend (D10) / Required rate (r) - Growth rate (g)
P9 = $14 / 12% - 6%
P9 = $14 / 0.06
P9 = $233.33
P0 = P9 / (1+Required rate of return)^9
P0 = $233.33/(1+0.12)^9
P0 = $233.33/2.7731
P0 = $84.1404926
P0 = $84.14
So, the current share price is $84.14

Windsor, Inc. just began business and made the following four inventory purchases in June:
June 1 129 units $890 June 10 172 units 1340 June 15 172 units 1440 June 28 129 units 1140 $4810
A physical count of merchandise inventory (rounded to whole dollar) on June 30 reveals that there are 180 units on hand. The inventory method which results in the highest gross profit for June is:_______.
a. the FIFO method.
b. the LIFO method.
c. the average cost method.
d. not determinable.
Answer:
c. the average cost method.
Explanation:
Windsor INC. purchased inventory during the month of June as follows:
June 1 129 units at $890
June 10 172 units at $1340
June 15 172 units at $1440
June 28 129 units at $ 1140
and at the end of the period, there are 180 units on hand.
In order to get highest gross profit the closing sock should be the highest, accordingly the value of inventory at hand should as as follows under different method explain below:
Under FIFO method the inventory first enter into the enterprise is available for sale at first so the inventory of 180 units at end should be values at the last price mentioned in the question i.e $1140, therefore the value amounts to $1140*180 units=$205200
Under LIFO method, likewise the last entered inventory will be available for sale and the inventory at the end of period will be valued at the price at which the inventory first bought i.e $890, therefore the value amounts to 180 units*$890=$160200
Under Average cost method the effect of differential price is distributed over the quantity bough during a period so that the company remains in ineffective condition during the period from the price change
Average cost per unit= (129*$890 +172*$1340+ 172*$1440+129*$1140)/602 units
=$1229.29
and for the 180 units the value amounts to 180*$122.29=$221271.429
so, as per explanation given above, it is certain that the highest value will be in average cost method.
The correct option is - c. the average cost method.
QS 8-7 Computing revised depreciation LO C2 On January 1, the Matthews Band pays $65,200 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for five years and after five years it can sell the equipment for $2,000. Matthews Band uses straight-line depreciation but realizes at the start of the second year that this equipment will last only a total of three years. The salvage value is not changed. Compute the revised depreciation for both the second and third years.
Answer:
$25,280 per year
Explanation:
The computation of the revised depreciation for both the second and third years is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
Depreciation for year 1 = [Cost – Salvage Value] ÷Useful Life
= [$65,200 - 2,000] ÷ 5 Years
= $12,640
Now Book Value at point of revision is
= Cost - First year depreciation
= $65,200 - $12,640
= $52,560
Now
Remaining Depreciable Cost = Book Value at the point of revision - Salvage Value
= $52,560 – 2,000
= $50,560
And, finally Depreciation per year for Year 2 and 3 is
= Depreciable cost / Remaining useful life
= $50,560 ÷ 2 Year
= $25,280 per year

You have been promoted to the Chief Procurement Officer (CPO) position within your organziation. The Chief Operations Officer wants to add a requirement to all contracts involving vehicle-related acquisition (transportation services, vehicle purchase, etc.) requiring the installation of a monitoring system. The system would provide information on vehicle speed and location, among other data. You have reservations, and know that, in the same way having a second set of eyes proofread a paper is helpful, another person can provide affirming or corrective perspective. Also, having an ally to support your views in a meeting offers valuable credibility beyond your interpretation of facts and data. The Chief Risk Officer (CRO) shares some of your concerns, which may include:
a. Information collection is boring.
b. No one will monitor the data collected.
c. Both "a" and "b" are correct.
d. As a company, your risk of being sued is increased, and data could be used to support a claim against you if there is an accident, critical materials shipment delay, or other conflict.
Answer:
d. As a company, your risk of being sued is increased, and data could be used to support a claim against you if there is an accident, critical materials shipment delay or other conflict.

How have technological Innovations Increased risks in business organizations!
Answer:
Businesses are more susceptible to information leakages as a result of technological inventions.
They also have to spend more money in the purchase of technologies that might be expensive to maintain.
Explanation:
1. Business organizations carry out a lot of activities that center on information sharing. The advent of technologies comes with risks from hackers who might want to intrude in the information of the company. When the system is compromised, customers can be disappointed and important and sensitive information may be lost to attackers or competing organizations that might fund such attacks. This will impose an information risk to the company.
2. The purchase of new technologies come at a high price. Personnel conversant with the use and operation of these technologies may be hard to find and might require training to be effective in the use of these machines. These machines can easily fall into disuse when they are not properly maintained. This will impose a financial risk to the company.
Answer:
Businesses are more susceptible to information leakages as a result of technological inventions.
They also have to spend more money in the purchase of technologies that might be expensive to maintain.

Statute of frauds is used as a defense to a lawsuit and not as an offense. For example, S owns a lot that B wishes to purchase. They enter into a verbal contract whereby B will deliver $6,000 at noon on Friday to S, and S will provide B with the deed to the property. If either party breaches the contract for the sale of the real estate lot and is sued by the other party, the defendant may raise statute of frauds as a defense, saying that there is nothing in writing or signed by the defendant.
Required:
What is the result?
Answer:
Since both parties can breach the contract without fearing any penalty as a result of doing it, its execution will depend on the good will of both parties. It will also require a coordinated action where B hands out the money at the same time they are receiving the deed. If both things do not occur simultaneously, for example, S promises to deliver the deed the next day or B promises to pay the next day, they will not do it. For example, B pays the $5,000 and S decides to increase the price to $10,000. Or S gives the deed and B says that the agreed price was $1,000.
