A company that wanted to increase its capital through equity financing would most likely get involved in which of the following markets
Answer:
Stock market
Explanation:
Equity financing is one of the ways that a public listed company can use to raise finances by issuing and selling shares to investors while the investors take ownership interest on the basis of shares owned.
After the initial public offering where the company sells shares to the general public , the secondary market , also known as the stock market is the place where the investors and stock brokers meet to buy shares at either an agreed price or the prevailing market price.
This market is regulated by the government authority.
The company is currently selling 6,500 units per month. Fixed expenses are $184,000 per month. The marketing manager believes that a $7,800 increase in the monthly advertising budget would result in a 190 unit increase in monthly sales. What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change?
Answer:
$14,050
Explanation:
Calculation of what should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change
Contribution Income Statement
6,500 units 6,690 units
Sales (at $190 per unit)$1,235,000 $1,271,100
Variable expenses (at $75 per unit)
$487,500 $501,750
Contribution margin$747,500 $ 769,350
Fixed expenses ($7,800 increase)
$184,000 $191,800
Net operating income$563,500 $577,550
6,500 units+190 unit increase in monthly sales=6,690
Fixed expenses ($7,800 increase)
$184,000 +$7,800$= $191,800
Net operating income$563,500 -$577,550 =$14,050
Therefore Net operating income would increase by $14,050
is (R$), has been trading at R$3.40/US$. Exports to Brazil are currently 50,000 printers per year at the reais-equivalent of $200 each. A rumor exists that the reais will be devalued to R$4.00/$ within two weeks by the Brazilian government. Should the deva
Answer:
Some information was missing, so I looked it up:
Should the devaluation take place, the reais is expected to remain unchanged for another decade.
Accepting this forecast as given, DP faces a pricing decision which must be made before any actual devaluation: DP may either 1) maintain the same reais price and in effect sell for fewer dollars, in which case Brazilian volume will not change or 2) maintain the same dollar price, raise the reais price in Brazil to compensate for the devaluation, and experience a 20% drop in volume. Direct costs in the U.S. are 60% of the U.S. sales price.
What would be the short-run (one-year) implication of each pricing strategy? Which do you recommend?
In the short run:
if you decide to keep the current price in reais, then your contribution margin per unit will decrease from $80 to $50. Total contribution from sales to Brazil will reduce from $4,000,000 to $2,500,000.
If you decide to increase the price in reais, then your contribution margin per unit will remain at $80, but your total sales will fall to 40,000. Total contribution margin from sales to Brazil will reduce from $4,000,000 to $3,200,000
Personally, I would recommend increasing the price since operating profits will reduce in a smaller proportion.

The combination of the degree of complexity and the degree of change existing in an organization's external environment is/are called:________
a. strategic fit.
b. strategic issues.
c. scenarios.
d. environmental uncertainty.
e. strategic factors.
Answer:
D. environmental uncertainty.
Explanation:
This could be explained to be a condition or situation when an organisation in form of a firm is said to have little or no information about its external environment and in this condition, making it unpredictable; especially when not expected. In other words, the term environmental uncertainty can be easily explained to be unpredicted, unexpected uncertainties that are said to happen in an external environment.
Global warming can be capitalized to be one of the physical and major environmental uncertainties that occurs in such a place.
Your client is an attorney. Her new admin is just learning how to use QuickBooks Online. The Automatically create invoices and don't notify me setting is on. The attorney charges her clients for copies made. These should have been entered using delayed charges, but the admin did not know that, and they were not entered into QuickBooks Online. What is the risk/danger of the new office admin person not entering the copies made in the Delayed Charges? 1. Job costs for this client will be reduced 2. There is no risk. Invoices will go out just fine 3. The attorney's clients will be undercharged 4. Photocopy expense will be understated
Answer:
3. The attorney's clients will be undercharged
Explanation:
Since the QuickBooks Online is set to "automatically create invoices" and clients are charged for copies made. The only missing link is that the charges to clients have not been entered into the Delayed charges, which will capture the expenses on photocopy. Therefore, "the risk/danger of the new office admin person not entering the copies made in the Delayed Charges" is that "the attorney's clients will be undercharged."
rawford Trucking plans to dispose of two trucks in 2022. They sell the first truck on January 2 and the second truck on July 9. If the end of their fiscal year is December 31, how will the calculation of book value differ for these two vehicles?
Answer: C : They will need to subtract a partial year of depreciation from the book value of the second truck but not the first truck.
Explanation:
When disposing of fixed assets such as vehicles, depreciation has to be charged on them to see their Net Book Value.
Companies usually depreciate their vehicles on a yearly basis in accordance with the end of their fiscal year. This company therefore most likely depreciates on December 31.
The first truck is sold 2 days after this Depreciation so there is no need to add more depreciation to it.
However the second truck on the other hand was sold 6 months later. Depreciation needs to charged on this substantial period but since it was not for the full year, a partial one needs to be charged.
Expenditures on a nation's domestic production Group of answer choices are less than its domestic production. are equal to its domestic production. are greater than its domestic production. could be less than, equal to, or greater than its domestic production.
Answer:
are equal to it's domestic production
Explanation:
A country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is defined as value of all goods and services produced in a country during a given time. Domestic production refers to those goods and services produced at home for local consumption.
Expenditure refers to the monies expended by all entities namely; household, firms and government on goods and services with a country.
When all the entities involved in generating a country's GDP spend their money towards purchasing goods and services produced in a country, then local producers would have more money to buy materials that will be used for further production. The higher the money spent, the higher the production and vice versa.
The above is a cycle that is repeated each time household, firms and government buys locally produced goods hence expenditure on a nation's domestic production equal to it's domestic production.

Cost of Goods Sold Pine Creek Company completed 200,000 units during the year at a cost of $3,000,000. The beginning finished goods inventory was 25,000 units at $310,000. Determine the cost of goods sold for 210,000 units, assuming a FIFO cost flow. $
Answer:
$3,085,000
Explanation:
FIFO means first in first out. It means it is the first purchased inventory that is the first to be sold.
The costs of goods sold would first be allocated to the beginning inventory = $310,000
The remaining cost of goods sold Je allocated to the inventory made during the year = 210,000 - 25,000 = 185,000
185,000 × ( $3,000,000 / $200,000) = $2,775,000
Total cost of goods sold = $2,775,000 + $310,000 = $3,085,000

Dechert's camera fails to focus properly so he takes the camera to a camera store that sells new and used cameras and also repairs them. When Dechert returns to the store a week later to pick up the camera it is not found. It turns out after the camera was fixed a dishonest employee sold it to a customer who came in to buy a used camera. If Dechert finds out the name of the customer who bought the camera can he recover it from the customer?
Answer: No.
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Dechert's camera fails to focus properly, therefore he takes the camera to a camera store that sells new and used cameras and also repairs them. He later returns to the store to pick up the camera it is not found and he later found out that after the camera was fixed, a dishonest employee sold it to a customer who came in to buy a used camera.
Even if Dechert finds out the name of the customer who bought the camera, he cannot recover it from the customer because this is an exception to the rule of law whereby it is stated that a legal title cannot be transferred to a property by a thief. Because the store sold both used and new cameras, the store has the power to give out Dechert's title to someone who purchases in an ordinary course of the said business.
Verizox Company uses a job order cost system with manufacturing overhead applied to products based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the most recent year, the company estimated its manufacturing overhead cost at $181,090. Estimated direct labor cost was $481,580 for 19,900 hours.Actual costs for the most recent month are summarized here:Item Description Total CostDirect labor (1,800 hours) $46,361Indirect costs Indirect labor 2,540Indirect materials 3,420Factory rent 3,300Factory supervision 4,730Factory depreciation 5,760Factory janitorial work 1,270Factory insurance 1,890General and administrative salaries 4,240Selling expenses 5,350Required1.

Calculate the amount of applied manufacturing overhead.Applied Overhead Rate _____3. Calculate actual manufacturing overhead costs.Actual Manufacturing Overhead Costs _____4. Compute over- or underapplied overhead.Overhead _____
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated overhead= $181,090
Estimated direct labor houra= 19,900
Actual costs:
Indirect labor= $2,540
Factory rent= $3,300
Factory supervision= $4,730
Factory depreciation= $5,760
Factory janitorial work= $1,270
Factory insurance= $1,890
Actual overhead= $19,490
Actual direct labor hours= 1,800
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= 181,090/19,900= $9.1 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead based on actual direct labor hours:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 9.1*1,800= $16,380
Actual manufacturing overhead costs= $19,490
Finally, we can determine the over/under allocation:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 19,490 - 16,380
Under/over applied overhead= $3,110 underapplied
Cambridge Manufacturing Company applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of machine hours. At the beginning of the year, the company estimated its total overhead cost to be $325,000 and machine hours to be 25,000. Actual manufacturing overhead and machine hours were $372,000 and 26,000, respectively.
Required:1.Compute the predetermined overhead rate
Compute applied manufacturing overhead.
Compute over- or underapplied manufacturing overhead.
Answer:
Under/over applied overhead= $34,000 underapplied
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
At the beginning of the year, the company estimated its total overhead cost to be $325,000 and machine hours to be 25,000. Actual manufacturing overhead and machine hours were $372,000 and 26,000, respectively.
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= 325,000/25,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $13 per machine-hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 13*26,000= $338,000
Finally, we determine the over/under allocation:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 372,000 - 338,000
Under/over applied overhead= $34,000 underapplied
What are the 4 phases in doing research?describe each phase
(for psychology)
Answer:
•Discovery
• Data
• Analyze

Explanation:
• Discovery . Here, there are observations of events or actions which bring about new knowledge that will be further exposed to new hypothesis.
• Data . Raw data(qualitative- non numerical and quantitative -numerical) are collected in this stage and then processed to become information.
• Analyze . This is a stage where the processed data and information are analyzed. It is where the data are cleaned, inspected, transformed and then modeled with the aim of making meaningful insights, drawing conclusion and then support further decision making.
• Ethical. In this stage, researchers check to determine whether their procedures are ethical or not. This is where the data analysed are checked whether they conform with the correct rule of conduct.
How much would you be willing to pay today for an investment that pays $1,300 per year at the end of the next 10 years
Answer:
The investment is worth $8,732.11 today.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow= $1,300
Number of years= 10
To calculate the present value, we need a discount rate. If not, the value of money through time is irrelevant.
Imagine a discount rate of 8% compounded annually.
First, we will calculate the future value:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual cash flow
FV= {1,300*[(1.08^10) - 1]} / 0.08
FV= $18,832.53
Now, the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 18,832.53/1.08^10
PV= $8,732.11

asyFind manufactures and sells golf balls. The company is conducting a price test to find a better price point. Presently their golf balls sell for $21 per dozen. Their current volume is 4,250 dozen per month. They are considering reducing their sales price by 24% per dozen. What % increase in unit sales is necessary to achieve the same level of total contribution?
Answer:
%variation= 31.58% increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price per dozen= $21
Sales in units= 4,250
They are considering reducing their sales price by 24% per dozen.
First, we need to determine the actual total contribution:
Total contribution= 21*4,250= $89,250
Now, with the new selling price, the percentage variation in sales units:
Selling price= 21*0.76= $15.96
89,250= 15.96*units
5,592= units
Percentage:
%variation= [(5,592/4,250) - 1]*100= 31.58%
Sunshine Blender Company sold 3000 units in October at a sales price of $45 per unit. The variable cost is $25 per unit. Calculate the total contribution margin.
Answer:
Total contribution margin= $60,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units sold= 3,000
Selling price per unit= $45
Unitary variable cost= $25
First, we will calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= 45 - 25= $20
Now, total contribution margin:
Total contribution margin= 3,000*20= $60,000
Who would benefit if the exchange rate with yen (in U.S. dollars) increased (i.e. one dollar can buy more yens)?
Answer:
The answer is US consumers
Explanation:
Exchange rate is the rate at which a country can exchange its currency with another country’s currency.
An increase in the exchange rate of dollar with Yen discourages the Japanese from buying american goods.
Since US dollar is appreciating in relative to Japanese Yen, US consumers will benefit since they are buying the goods at a now cheaper rate.

Answer:
Altira Corporation
August 2021 Ending Inventory & Cost of Goods Sold:
1. Ending Inventory = 9,000 units at $5.88 per unit = $52,920
2. Cost of goods sold =
9,600 x $5.87 = $56,352
7,000 x $5.95 = $41,650
16,600 units = $98,002
Explanation:
a) Calculations:
Units Unit Cost Total Cost
Beginning Inventory 2,000 $5.70 $11,400
Purchases 12,000 $5.90 $70,800
Weighted average cost = ($11,400 + $70,800) / 14,000 = $5.87
Sales (9,600) $12.00 $115,200
Units remaining 4,400 $5.87 $25,828
Purchases 7,200 $6.00 $43,200
Weighted average cost = ($25,828 + $43,200) / 11,600 = $5.95
Sales (7,000) $11.40 $79,800
Units remaining 4,600 $5.95 $27,370
Purchases 4,400 $5.80 $25,520
Weighted average cost = ($27,370 + $25,520) / 9,000 = $5.88
Ending Inventory 9,000 $5.88 $52,920
b) The 'Average Cost Method' or the Weighted Average Cost Method assumes that the cost of inventory is based on the average cost of the goods available for sale during the period. To compute the average cost, divide the total cost of goods available for sale by the total units available for sale.

Easter Egg and Poultry Company has $1,040,000 in assets and $649,000 of debt. It reports net income of $120,000. a. What is the firm’s return on assets? (Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) b. What is its return on stockholders’ equity? (Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) c. If the firm has an asset turnover ratio of 4 times, what is the profit margin (return on sales)? (Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
A. 11.54%
B. 30.69%
C. 2.88
Explanation:
Return on assets = net income/ total assets
= $120,000 / $1,040,000 = 0.115385 = 11.54%
Return on equity = net income/ total equity
Total equity = total assets - liabilities = $1,040,000 - $649,000 = $391,000
$120,000 / $391,000 = 0.3069 = 30.69%
Profit margin = gross profit/ revenue
Asset turnover = revenue / total asset
4 = revenue / $1,040,000
Revenue = $4,160,000
Profit margin = $120,000 / $4,160,000 = 0.0288 = 2.88

What do you see as the major deficiencies current information systems budgeting and prioritization processes are run
Answer:
The major challenges with the current information systems budgeting and prioritisation process are:
The focus was overly on how the budgeted monies will be spent and how much return it will bring to the business. Not much thought was given to how the monies required for the expenses will be generated. Budgeting not only looks at the outflow, it examines existing and potential sources of income/revenue. When this is balanced, the company can integrate such into their marketing strategy armed with what information about the market that they possess.The prioritization is all wrong. Budgeting is because there is are organisational objectives to be met with limited resources.
Because those resources are limited, the said objectives have to be prioritized. Income-generating projects must hold more priority over non-revenue generating activities.
If there is a strategic link between the company's Information Systems upgrade and an increase in its bottom line, then it must be given priority.
Cheers!
