Answer:
$73,120
Explanation:
Bartholomew company purchased a new stamping machine with a list price of $70,000
They were given a discount of 5%
Other costs that are associated with the machine include
Transportation costs= $1,300
Sales tax= $3,120
Installation costs= $1,000
Routine maintenance during the first month= $1,200
Then, the cost of the machine can be calculated as follows
(70,000-5/100×70,000) + $1,300+$3,120+$1,000+$1,200
$66,500+$1,300+$3,120+$1,000+$1,200
= $73,120
Hence the cost of the machine is $73,120
A company should pursue unrelated diversification instead of related diversification when: a. the bureaucratic costs of implementation do not exceed the value that can be created by realizing economies of scope. b. it wants to maximize growth. c. its core skills are highly specialized and have few applications outside its core business. d. the company's top managers are skilled at acquiring and turning around poorly run enterprises. e. its core technological skills are applicable to a wide variety of industrial and commercial situations.
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Unrelated diversification can be defined as the form of diversification when the business adds some of the new products not related to the core strength or core products of the company.
It tries to penetrate into some other business. Example: A shoe making company starts making sports wear.
The companies whose core strength is skilled and specialized and has only few applications outside the core skills. These company can pursue unrelated diversification instead of related.
A sinking fund is established by a working couple so that they will have $60,000 to pay for part of their daughter's education when she enters college. If they make deposits at the end of each 3-month period for 8 years, and if interest is paid at 10%, compounded quarterly, what size deposits must they make
Answer:
quarterly deposit= $12,460.99
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
FV= $60,000
Number of periods= 4*8= 32
i= 0.10/4= 0.025
To calculate the quarterly deposit required, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= quarterly deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
A= (60,000*0.025) / [(1.025^32) - 1]
A= 12,460.99
Critically analyze the difference and points of convergence between floor inspection and functional inspection
Answer:
Please refer to the below;
Explanation:
Difference between Floor inspection and Functional inspection.
• Floor inspection is usually conducted in a production environment. It involves checking of materials while processing in the machine by inspectors. Rather than checking the materials in the machine at the beginning of production, floor inspection checks the materials while in process inorder to ensure that the defected ones are quickly detected and expunged. It also ensure that the equipments used in processing are properly functioning.
• Functional inspection is an inspection that checks the overall function of a product rather than what makes up the component parts. For instance the load capacity and speed of a vehicle can be checked for optimal performance whereas individual parts that make up the vehicle are not checked, yet bring out satisfactory performance when combined together. This form of inspection is concerned with verification of final output and does not provide details about different sections instead provides a wider understanding of comfort that emanate from inspecting same item.
Points of Convergence between Floor inspection and Functional inspection.
• The key objective of both floor and functional inspection is quality output having reviewed and examined their expectations.
• Both floor and functional inspection work to prevent defective product from flowing down the successive operations and avoid loss to the company
• Both floor and functional inspection aim at meeting customers requirements, wants and needs.
On 12/31/X4, Zoom, LLC, reported a $55,500 loss on its books. The items included in the loss computation were $27,000 in sales revenue, $12,000 in qualified dividends, $19,000 in cost of goods sold, $47,000 in charitable contributions, $17,000 in employee wages, and $11,500 of rent expense. How much ordinary business income (loss) will Zoom report on its X4 return
Answer:Ordinary Business income loss =-$20,500.
Explanation:
Ordinary business Expenses are the expenses generally accepted according to the industry standards associated with running of a business.
Here, the ordinary business expenses for Zoom include
cost of good sold= $19,-000
employee wages= $17,000
rent expense = $11,500 and therefore will be deducted from its sales revenue.
charitable contributions and qualified dividends, do not cut across all industries and so are not classified under Ordinary Buisness expences.
Ordinary Business income loss = Sales revenue - cost of good sold, -employee wages- rent expense.
$27,000- $19,000-$`17,000-$11,500= -$20,500. to be reported on its X4 return

Quality Timber Pty Ltd is a well-established logging company. With below-average performance, their packaging department is consistently behind schedule. Employees often take long lunch breaks and frequently stop to chat with co-workers. However, the employees get along very well and frequently spend time together, even outside work. In this scenario, the performance norms are _____ and cohesiveness is _____, so productivity is ____.
Answer:
Quality Timber Pty Ltd
In this scenario, the performance norms are _below-average____ and cohesiveness is _ high____, so productivity is _low___.
Explanation:
It has been established that group norms influence individual behavior and group performance. Performance Norms refer to how a person should work in a given group and what his or her output should be.
Cohesion, according to wikipedia.com, "can be more specifically defined as the tendency for a group to be in unity while working towards a goal or to satisfy the emotional needs of its members." Employees of the packaging department tend to be enjoying so much group cohesiveness. But, they need to break some habits to focus on achieving corporate goals by increasing their productivity.
According to Paul Krugman of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, "Productivity is commonly defined as a ratio between the output volume and the volume of inputs. In other words, it measures how efficiently production inputs, such as labour and capital, are being used in an economy to produce a given level of output." A rough assessment of the packaging department employees' performance shows low productivity, as they are "consistently behind schedule and take long lunch breaks, and frequently chat with co-workers," instead of concentrating on their jobs.
In Ricci v. DeStefano, Ricci, a white firefighter, took and passed the City of New Haven firefighter's test, required of all applicants for promotion in the city's fire department. The test was thrown out when it was discovered that minorities scored poorly and the city feared a disparate impact-based lawsuit. How did the court rule?
A) An employer may not simply disregard a test based on unwanted results unless the test is shown to be biased or deficient.
B) Even though the test was prepared by a professional testing organization, the city has the right to reject the test results if minorities do not score adequately
C) Deliberately oversampling minorities to seek to create a fair test is irrelevant if the test results show that minorities still scored poorly
D) Ricci, as a member of the white majority, had no grounds to sue when the city was seeking the legitimate aim of nondiscrimination
Answer:
The correct answer is A. In Ricci v. DeStefano, the Supreme Court ruled that an employer may not simply disregard a test based on unwanted results unless the test is shown to be biased or deficient.
Explanation:
Ricci v. DeStefano is a Supreme Court ruling of 2009, after a lawsuit by nineteen firefighters who claimed to have been discriminated against in terms of career development. They denounced that they had been discriminated after having passed the admission tests and still had not been promoted, since no African-American candidate had passed the tests. They also denounced that they had not been promoted because the Fire Department did not want to promote a group of new recruits without including within it any member of racial minorities.
Finally, the Supreme Court established that said procedure violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, since in the case equal access to employment was not guaranteed (in this case, favoring minorities over white firefighters), for set different demands for purely racial reasons.

A package delivery service uses vans and employees to deliver the maximum number of packages given a fixed budget. The last van added 600 packages to total output, while the last employee added 500 packages. If vans cost exist400 per week and employees earn exist300 per firm:________.
a. could deliver more packages with the same budget by using more employees and fewer Vans
b. could deliver more packages the same budget by using more vans and fewer with employees
c. use more vans and fewer employees because the last dollars spent on vans added more to total output than the last dollar spent on employees
d. is delivering the maximum number of packages given the fixed budget
e. both b and c
Answer: e. both b and c
Explanation:
Van delivered 600 per week and cost $400.
The cost per package for the Van is;
= 600/400
= $1.5 per package
Employees delivered 500 and cost $300 which means the cost per package is;
= 500/300
= $1.67 per package.
The results show that it costs more to deliver with Employees ($1.67) than with the Vans ($1.5). Using more Vans will therefore allow for more packages to be delivered using a fixed budget as the last dollar spent on Vans gave more output than the last dollar spent on Employees.
Clay Earth Company sells ceramic pottery at a wholesale price of $ 5.00 per unit. The variable cost of manufacture is $ 1.25 per unit. The fixed costs are $ 6 comma 700 per month. It sold 4 comma 200 units during this month. Calculate Clay Earth's operating income (loss) for this month. A. $ 9 comma 050 B. $ 14 comma 300 C. ($ 6 comma 700) D. ($ 9 comma 050)
Answer:
A. $ 9 comma 050
Explanation:
The operating income(loss) of a business is the result of the sales less operating costs. The operating cost is made up of the fixed cost and the variable cost.
If the Sales is more than the operating cost, the business makes an income otherwise, a loss.
Sales = $5 * 4200
= $21,000
Operating cost = $1.25 * 4200 + $6,700
= $11,950
Operating income(loss) = $21,000 - $11,950
= $9,050

Harry has a Personal Auto Policy (PAP) with liability limits of 100/$300/$50 and medical payments limits of $5,000 insuring his SUV. Harry also has other than collision and collision coverages with deductibles of $250 and $500, respectively. The local taxicab drivers are on strike and Harry decides to capitalize on the situation by transporting persons in his SUV for a fee. While transporting a businessman, Harry loses control of his SUV and hits a parked car. The damages are as follows:
Harry's medical costs - $2,000The businessman's medical costs - $1,000Damage to the parked car - $14,000Damage to Harry's car - $12,000How much, if any, will Harry's PAP insurer pay for damages under Part A—Liability Coverage?A. $0B. $14,000C. $17,000D. $29,000
Answer:
A) $0
Explanation:
The personal automobile policy (PAP) is an automobile insurance contract which most people purchase in order to protect their automobile from costs that may arise due to auto accidents.
Under the Part A—Liability Coverage, there are exclusions whereby the insurer won't pay for any damage, and one of the exclusions states that "for that “insured’s” liability arising out of the ownership or operation of a vehicle while it is being used as a public or livery conveyance, no liability coverage would be provided."
In this case, since Harry used his SUV to transport people for a fee, Harry's PAP insurer won't pay for damages under Part A—Liability Coverage because he used his SUV for livery conveyance.
Some quotes were stated from "Types of Automobile Policies and the Personal Automobile Policy"
An investor is considering the purchase of a residential rental property that has an asking price of $400,000. The property has four rental units that are expected to rent for $1,200 each per month. Operating expenses and vacancy allowances are expected to be 45% of gross income. An 5% interest only mortgage loan is available for 5 years at 100% of the purchase price. How much cash income will the investor receive each month of the first year after paying the monthly mortgage payment
Answer:
The answer is $973
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
A residential rental property asking price = $400,000
Property expected to rent = $1200
Operating expenses expected = 45%
Interest =5%
Mortgage loan available for =5 years
Purchase price =100%
Now, we find out the cash income the investor receive each month of the first year after paying the monthly mortgage payment
Thus
Rental income (1200*4 units)=$4800
Less: operating expenses (4800*45%)=$2160
The Net income per month=$2640
So,
Less:Monthly mortgage interest payment=$1667 [(400000*5%)
=20000/12=1667]
The Cash income =$973
Therefore the investor will receive $973 each month of the first year.
Nielson Motors is considering an opportunity that requires an investment of $1,000,000 today and will provide $250,000 one year from now, $450,000 two years from now, and $650,000 three years from now. If the appropriate interest rate is 15%, then Nielson Motors should
Answer:
The NPV is - $14958.49 . The opportunity should not be pursued as the NPV of the project discounted at the interest rate of 15% comes out to be negative . Thus, Nielson Motors should not proceed with the project.
Explanation:
To determine whether the project should be accepted or not, we need to calculate the NPV or Net Present Value of the project. If the NPV is positive, the project should be accepted.
The formula to calculate the NPV is attached.
NPV = - 1000000 + 250000 / (1 + 0.15) + 450000 / (1 + 0.15)² +
650000 / (1 + 0.15)³
NPV = - $14958.49429
The opportunity should not be pursued as the NPV of the project discounted at the interest rate of 15% comes out to be negative. Thus, Nielson Motors should not proceed with the project.
If a Starbucks tall latte cost $3.20 in the United States and 3 euros in the Euro area, then purchasing-power parity implies the nominal exchange rate is how many euros per dollar?
a. .938 If the exchange rate is less than this, it costs more dollars to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in the Euro area.
b. .938 If the exchange rate is less than this, it costs fewer dollars to buy a tall latte in the U.S. then in the Euro area.
c. 1.067 If the exchange rate is less than this, it costs more dollars to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in the Euro area.
d. 1.067 If the exchange rate is less than this, it costs fewer dollars to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in the Euro area.
Answer:
a. .938 If the exchange rate is less than this, it costs more dollars to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in the Euro area.
Explanation:
We can see in the example that the Euro is cheaper than the dollar in purchasing-power parity. More specifically, the exchange rate is .938 euros per dollar.
This is why it is more expensive to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in Europe. The Euro is cheaper.

Group of answer choices Debt Preferred Equity Derivatives Common Equity Equity
Answer:
Debt
Explanation:
Debt is the lowest cost source of financing because the interest return given to holders of debt has a tax shield (tax deductible) that is provided by the Section 11j of the Income tax Act.

Why are adjustments made to the accounting records at the end of the period? (You may select more than one answer. Single click the box with the question mark to produce a check mark for a correct answer and double click the box with the question mark to empty the box for a wrong answer. Any boxes left with a question mark will be automatically graded as incorrect.)
Answer: a. To ensure assets and liabilities are reported at appropriate amounts.
b. To ensure the related revenues and expenses are reported in the proper period.
Explanation:
Adjustments must be made at the end of the period to make sure that the figures in the books are the proper and true reflection of the transactions that took place. That way records are neither overstated or understated thereby giving the users of the Accounting records a proper and accurate opportunity to assess the company's financial standing.
Records must also be adjusted to abide by the Accrual basis in accounting which posits that revenues and expenses should be recorded only in the periods when they occured regardless of if money has been received or paid for them. This way it is easier to match Expenses as well as Revenue to their respective periods.

Sexton Corp. has current liabilities of $510,000, a quick ratio of .93, inventory turnover of 6.9, and a current ratio of 1.5. What is the cost of goods sold for the company?
Answer:
The cost of goods sold for the company is $2,005,830.
Explanation:
This can be calculated from the available information using the following steps:
Step 1: Calculation of Current Assets
To do this, we use the current ratio formula as follows:
Current ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Substituting the values in the question into the equation above and solve for Current Assets, we have:
1.5 = Current Assets / $510,000
Current Assets = $510,000 * 1.5 = $765,000
Step 2: Calculation of Inventory
To do this, we use the Quick Ratio formula as follows:
Quick ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities
Substituting the values in the question and from Step 1 into the equation above and solve for Inventory, we have:
0.93 = ($765,000 - Inventory) / $510,000
0.93 * $510,000 = $765,000 - Inventory
$474,300 = $765,000 - Inventory
$474,300 + Inventory = $765,000
Inventory = $765,000 - 474,300 = $290,700
Note that this inventory of $290,700 is the ending inventory.
Step 3: Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold
To do this, we use the Inventory Turnover formula as follows:
Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / Average Inventory
Note that average Average Inventory is the addition of the beginning and closing inventory divided by 2. But since the beginning inventory is not available, the practice is to use the ending inventory in place of the average inventory. This is what we do here below.
Substituting the values in the question and from Step 2 into the equation above and solve for Cost of goods sold, we have:
6.9 = Cost of goods sold / $290,700
Cost of goods sold = 6.9 * $290,7000 = $2,005,830
Therefore, the cost of goods sold for the company is $2,005,830.

Last year, Rotterdam, Inc. had sales revenue of $980,000. Costs other than depreciation and interest expense were 20 percent of sales. Depreciation expense was $50,000, interest expense was $95,000, and dividends paid were $23,000. The company also received dividends of $8,000 from a company in which it had 30% ownership stake. Which of the following statements is most CORRECT?a. The firm's taxable income was $637,400. b. The firm's after-tax income was $405,564. c. The firm's marginal tax rate was 39 percent. d. The firm's tax for the year was $113,900. e. None of the above
Answer:
e. None of the above
Explanation:
total revenue $980,000
- operating costs $196,000
- depreciation $50,000
- interests $95,000
income $639,000
+ dividends from outside corporation = $8,000 x (1 - 80% DRD) = $1,600
total taxable income = $639,000 + $1,600 = $640,600
current corporate tax is 21%, so the company's marginal tax rate would be 21%
income taxes for the year = $640,600 x 21% = $134,526
the company's after tax income = $640,600 - $134,526 = $506,074
Hubert: Demand decreased, but it was perfectly inelastic. Kate: Demand decreased, but supply was perfectly inelastic. Manuel: Demand decreased, but supply increased at the same time. Poornima: Supply increased, but demand was perfectly inelastic. Shen: Supply increased, but demand was unit elastic. Who could possibly be right
The complete part of the question.
The price of coffee fell sharply last month, while the quantity sold remained the same. Five people suggest various explanations
Answer:
Kate, Manuel and Poornima
Explanation:
Given that, the price of coffee fell but the quantity sold remained the same.
1. Hubert: Demand decreased, but it was perfectly inelastic.
If an elastic demand shifts the demand curve will move to the left. This would cause both prices as well as quantity to decline. So HUBERT's statement is not correct.
2. Kate: Demand decreased, but supply was perfectly inelastic.
This can be true, because of the inelastic supply curve. If the supply curve is an inelastic vertical line then a fall in demand will not affect quantity while the price will fall. So, KATE's statement can be right.
3. Manuel: Demand decreased, but supply increased at the same time.
If there is a decrease in the demand curve, it will shift to the left. Now, if there is an increase in the supply by the same amount the price will fall but quantity will remain the same. So, MANUEL's statement is right.
4. Poornima: Supply increased, but demand was perfectly inelastic.
Here, the rightward shift in the supply curve will cause the price to fall but quantity will remain the same. So, POORNIMA's statement is right.
5. Shen: Supply increased, but demand was unit elastic.
if the demand curve is unitary elastic, an increase in supply will cause the price to fall and quantity to increase. So, SHEN's statement is not correct.

Which of the following is a community lifeline
Answer:
Safety and security
food, water, and shelter
health and medical
power and fuel
communications and transport
Explanation:
A lifeline allows business and government structures to continue to operate and is beneficial to human health and financial stability. Lifelines are perhaps the most important resources in the community that allow all other facets of society to work when balanced. The interconnected network of resources, services, and securities ( food, water, and shelter, medical care, communications facilities, etc) that provide lifeline services is used on a daily basis to facilitate the community's regularly occurring needs and give all other elements of society to perform efficiently.
Communications are the Community's lifeline. Safety and security, health and medical care, communications, hazardous materials, food, water, shelter, energy (power & fuel), and transportation are the seven community lifelines that FEMA has defined. Thus, option C is correct.
The Community Lifelines idea from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is a framework for event management that gives emergency managers a reporting system to swiftly stabilize a community after a disaster.
Safety and security, health and medical care, communications, hazardous materials, food, water, shelter, energy (power & fuel), and transportation are the seven community lifelines that FEMA has defined. It is a sign that lives are in danger, and daily routines and food chains are disturbed, if any of these Lifelines go down due to a disaster or emergency.
