In the MBTI personality model, Disney "imagineers" are more likely to have high _____ scores, while Disney accountants who determine currency transfer equivalencies are more likely to have high _____ scores.
Answer:
In the MBTI personality model, Disney "imagineers" are more likely to have high __INTJ___ scores, while Disney accountants who determine currency transfer equivalencies are more likely to have high __ISTJ___ scores.
Explanation:
1. MBTI personality model is the Myers-Briggs Theory. It was developed by the mother-daughter partnership of Katharine Briggs and Isabel Briggs Myers. At the heart of Myers Briggs theory are four preferences, depicting personality preferences as follows:
1. People and things (Extraversion or "E"), or ideas and information (Introversion or "I").
2. Facts and reality (Sensing or "S"), or possibilities and potential (Intuition or "N").
3. Logic and truth (Thinking or "T"), or values and relationships (Feeling or "F").
4. A lifestyle that is well-structured (Judgment or "J"), or one that goes with the flow (Perception or "P").
These four major classifications mean that one tends to have more of each than the other. This means that there are 16 traits or combinations of traits for a given personality.
2. INTJ personality type: Disney "imagineers" are likely to direct their energies to deal with (Introversion) ideas, information, explanations, and beliefs, as people in research and development at Disney. The information they deal with will be based on ideas, new possibilities, and not obvious things (Intuition) instead of facts and what they know and see. Their decision making will be based on objective logic, using analytic and detailed approaches. Their work will be planned and well-structured to reflect their lifestyle as opposed to flowing with the trend and maintaining flexibility.
3. ISTJ personality class: Disney accountants will bear similar traits like the "imagineers" except that instead of dealing with unknown and not obvious ideas and possibilities like the imagineers, they would prefer their information for processing to be based on clear facts and what they see and know.
Answer:
In the MBTI personality model, Disney "imagineers" are more likely to have high __INTJ___ scores, while Disney accountants who determine currency transfer equivalencies are more likely to have high __ISTJ___ scores.
Explanation:
railway cabooses just paid its annual dividend of 1.70 per share. The company has been reducing the dividends by 11.3 percent each year. How much are you willing to pay today to purchase stock in this company if your required rate of return is 12 percent?
Answer:
8.24
Explanation:
According to the given situation, the computation of purchase stock is shown below:-
Purchase price = Dividend in paid in next year ÷ (required rate of return - Growth rate)
= (1.70 ÷ (1 - 0.113)) ÷ (0.12 - (-0.113))
= 1.92 ÷ 0.233
= 8.24
Therefore for computing the purchase price we simply applied the above formula.

CDB stock is currently priced at $80. The company will pay a dividend of $4.57 next year and investors require a return of 10.8 percent on similar stocks. What is the dividend growth rate on this stock
Answer:
The answer is 5.09%
Explanation:
The model used in this question is the Dividend Discount Model and it is one of the methods used in determining the price of stock. Here, the price of stock had already been determined. We are looking for one of the variables (growth rate) used in determining the price.
The formula for determining price of stock is:
Po = D1/r - g
Where Po is the price of stock
D1 is the dividend for next year
r is the rate of return
g is the dividend growth rate
$80 = $4.57/0.108 - g
Cross multiply:
8.64 - 80g = 4.57
80g = 8.64 - 4.57
80g = 4.07
g = 4.07/80
g =0.05088
g = 5.09%

Exercise 7-3A Allocate costs in a basket purchase (LO7-1) Red Rock Bakery purchases land, building, and equipment for a single purchase price of $360,000. However, the estimated fair values of the land, building, and equipment are $115,000, $253,000, and $92,000, respectively, for a total estimated fair value of $460,000. Required: Determine the amounts Red Rock should record in the separate accounts for the land, the building, and the equipment
Answer:
Land = $90,000
Building = $198,000
Land = $72,000
Explanation:
The Fair Values of Land, Building and Equipment are used to apportion the single purchase price to the respective asset accounts as follows :
Land = $115,000/ $460,000 × $360,000
= $90,000
Building = $253,000/ $460,000 × $360,000
= $198,000
Land = $92,000/ $460,000 × $360,000
= $72,000
Super Carpeting Inc. (SCI) just paid a dividend (D₀) of $3.12 per share, and its annual dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate (g) of 6.50% per year. If the required return (r s ) on SCI’s stock is 16.25%, then the intrinsic value of SCI’s shares is
Answer:
Intrinsic Value = $33.23
Explanation:
The intrinsic value of a stock using the dividend valuation model is the present value of the the future dividend expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.
This model is represented as follows
D(1+g)/(r-g) = P
Price, D- dividend payable in now, ke- required rate of return, g- growth rate
D- 3.12 , g-6.50% r-6.25%
Intrinsic value = (3.12× 1.065)/(0.1625-0.065)= $33.228
Intrinsic Value = $33.23
Item 11Item 11 You are going to deposit $24,500 today. You will earn an annual rate of 5.5 percent for 8 years, and then earn an annual rate of 4.9 percent for 11 years. How much will you have in your account in 19 years
Answer:
$63,637.94
Explanation:
$24,500 is deposited in the bank
5.5% annual rate will be earned in 8 years
= 5.5/100
= 0.055
4.9% annual rate will be earned in 11 years
= 4.9/100
= 0.049
The first step is to calculate the future value of the amount after 8 years
= amount deposited×(1+r)^n
r is the annual rate, n is the number of years
= $24,500×(1+0.055)^8
= $24,500×1.055^8
= $24,500×1.534686515
= $37,599.8196
Therefore, the amount that would be present in the account in 19 years can be calculated as follows
= amount at the end of year 8×(1+r)^n
where r = 0.049, n= 11
= $37,599.8196×(1+0.049)^11
= $37,599.8196×1.049^11
= $37,599.8196×1.692506597
= $63,637.94
Hence the amount present in the account in 19 years is $63,637.94
How much would you need to deposit in an account now in order to have $4000 in the account in 5 years? Assume the account earns 3% interest compounded monthly.
Answer:
PV= $3,443.48
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future value= $4,000
Interest rate= 0.03/12= 0.0025
Number of months= 5*12= 60
To calculate the initial investment required, we need to use the following formula:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 4,000/(1.0025^60)
PV= $3,443.48
If the fixed costs are $450,000, the unit selling price is $75, and the unit variable costs are $50, what are the old and new break-even sales (units) if the unit selling price increases by $10
Answer:
Old break even points= 18,000 units
New break even points= 12,857 units
Explanation:
The fixed costs are $450,000
The unit selling price is $75
The unit variable costs are $50
The unit selling price have an increase of 10 units
The first step is to calculate the contribution margin per unit
Contribution margin per unit= Selling price per unit-Variable cost per unit
= $75-$50
= $25 per unit
The old break even point can be calculated as follows
= Fixed costs/Contribution margin per unit
= $450,000/$25
= 18,000 units
Since there is an increase in the unit selling price by $10 per unit then, the contribution matgin per unit can be calculated as follows
= $25+$10
= $35
Therefore, the new break even point can be calculated as follows
= $450,000/$35
= 12,857 units
Hence the old break even point and new break even point are 18,000 units and 12,857 units respectively
Classical economists contend that official measures of unemployment: Multiple Choice understate the problem due to the existence of discouraged workers. overstate the problem because most unemployment is voluntary. understate the problem due to involuntary part-time employment. overstate the problem because most unemployment is cyclical.
Answer: overstate the problem because most unemployment is voluntary.
Explanation:
Unemployment is a term that is used to refer to individuals who are looking for job but can not find a job.
Classical economists contend that official measures of unemployment
overstate the problem because most unemployment is voluntary.
According to the Classical economists, there is increase in employment because those seeking employment do not want to work for lower wages but will rather wait for high paying jobs and this therefore leads to overstating of the unemployment rate.
E6-23 (similar to) Aunt Betty Bakery reported net sales revenue of $ 59 comma 000 and cost of goods sold of $ 17 comma 000. Compute Aunt Betty's correct gross profit if the company made either of the following independent accounting errors. a. Ending merchandise inventory is overstated by $ 4 comma 000. b. Ending merchandise inventory is understated by $ 4 comma 000.
Answer:
a. Ending merchandise inventory is overstated by $4,000.
net sales revenue of $59,000
cost of goods sold of $17,000 + $4,000 = $21,000
gross profit = $38,000
Since ending inventory was overstated, it means that COGS were understated.
b. Ending merchandise inventory is understated by $4,000.
net sales revenue of $59,000
cost of goods sold of $17,000 - $4,000 = $13,000
gross profit = $46,000
Since ending inventory was understated, it means that COGS were overstated.
In calculating a predetermined overhead rate, a recent trend in automated manufacturing operations is to choose an activity base related to
Answer: c. machine hours.
Explanation:
In reference to Automated Operations, the Activity base that is usually used to in determining a pre-determined overhead rate are Machine hours.
It is standard practice to relate overhead to the Direct Labor involved in the production of a commodity and since in this case the direct Labor mostly consists of Machines (Automated) then it is best to relate activities to the Machine hours involved instead.
g For this question, ignore inflation. Suppose Jenny earns $60,000 per year working as a tax analyst. After ten years, she quits her job and pursues a PhD in Art History. For the 5 years she is in school, she gets a teaching stipend of $12,000 per year. For the next 35 years, she is an art director and earns $95,000. If she expects to live for 20 years in retirement. If Jenny doesn’t earn any interest on her savings and wants to perfectly smooth consumption across her life, how much will she consume every year? What might prevent her from perfectly smoothing consumption?
Answer:
If Jenny doesn’t earn any interest on her savings and wants to perfectly smooth consumption across her life, how much will she consume every year?
Jenny's total income during her life = income as tax analyst ($60,000 x 10) + income as PhD student ($12,000 x 5) + income as Art Director (35 x $95,000) = $3,985,000
she generated income during 50 years and expects to live 20 more, so in order to perfectly smooth consumption across her life, she must divide her total life income by 70 years = $3,985,000 / 70 years = $56,928.57 per year
What might prevent her from perfectly smoothing consumption?
First of all, besides inflation, you also earn interest on your savings. That is why 401k and other retirement accounts work so well (the magic of compound interest). Even if inflation and interests didn't exist, you cannot know exactly what you are going to earn in the future and for how many years. In this case, she earned $60,000 for 10 years, but then earned only $12,000 during 5 years. If she really wanted to smooth her consumption, she would have needed to get a loan because her savings during the first 10 years wouldn't be enough.
The bid-ask spread exists because of _______________. A. market inefficiencies B. discontinuities in the markets C. the need for dealers to cover expenses and make a profit D. lack of trading in thin markets
Answer:
C. the need for dealers to cover expenses and make a profit
Explanation:
In the market for securities there are two pricing of securities.
The ask price is the price at which the buyer is willing to purchase a security.
The ask price or the offer price is price at which the seller of a security is willing to sell it. Ask price can be firm or negotiable.
Bid ask spread is the difference between the highest amount a buyer is willing to buy a security and the lowest price at which a seller is willing to sell it.
This spread exists because dealers need to cover expenses and make a profit
Obama drives up miles-per-gallon requirements Emissions from all new vehicles must be cut from 354 grams to 250 grams. To meet this new standard, the price of a new vehicle will rise by $1,300. Source: USA Today, May 20, 2009 What is the opportunity cost of reducing the emission level by 1 gram?
Answer:
$12.5 per gram
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the cost which is:
Future related costCash flow in natureIncremental Cost or DifferentialIn simple words, opportunity cost is the benefit lost due to given up another best alternative.
To reduce the pollution level from 354 to 250 gram, the price of new vehicle will increase by $1300.
Hence
The increase in price per gram = $1,300 / (354 - 250) = $12.5 per gram
This is the opportunity cost per gram increase in Carbon dioxide emission which the companies will have to bear if they don't opt to environmental free vehicles.

A customer buys 100 shares of ABC stock at $44 and sells 1 ABC Jan 45 Call at $5. Subsequently, the market price of ABC goes to $59 and the call contract is exercised. The customer has a:
Answer:
loss = $1,000
Explanation:
the customer will receive $5 (call price) + $44 (call price) = $49 for every share that he/she owns.
since the market price was $59, then the customer lost $59 - $49 = $10 for every share that he/she owned, resulting in a total loss = $10 per share x 100 shares = $1,000
A call option gives the buyer the option to purchase a stock at a set price during a specific time frame.
Webby Inc. is a web development company. Webby’s monthly production function for developing websites is given in the table below. Webby pays $4,000 a month in rent for office space and equipment. It pays each programmer $3,000 a month. There are no other production costs. Fill in the table of production costs.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the filling of the given table for the production cost is shown in the attachment below:
As we know that
Total cost = Fixed cost + variable cost
Average fixed cost = fixed cost ÷ websites
Average Variable cost = Variable cost ÷ websites
Therefore the average total cost is
= Average fixed cost + average variable cost
The marginal cost is
= Change in total cost ÷ change in quantity
These formulas are used to complete the table as given below.
Cindy's current year adjusted gross income (AGI) is $300,000 and her current year total tax liability is $60,000. Her immediate prior year AGI is $200,000 with a total tax liability of $40,000. To avoid an underpayment interest penalty, what is Cindy's minimum required total tax payment amount for the current year
Answer:
The answer is $44,000
Explanation:
Solution
Given that
Now
Present/current year AGI = $300000
Present /current year tax liability = $60000
Prior year AGI = $200000
Prior year tax liability = $40000
Thus
As per Tax rule or applying the Tax rule
If Adjusted gross income(AGI) of prior year is below $250000 then the minimum required tax payment in the current year in order to avoid interest penalty is lower of
(1) 90% of present /current year tax (liability) or
(2) 110% of prior year tax liability
So
Because the prior year AGI is $200000 which is lower than $250000, in order to avoid interest penalty, the minimum required payment amount of tax liability in current/present year is lower of
(1) 90% of current year tax liability of $60000
Then
$60000 *90% = $54000
Or
(2)110% of prior year tax liability of $40000
$40000 ×110% = $44000
Hence, minimum required total tax payment amount for the current year is $44,000
Keidis Industries will pay a dividend of $5.15, $6.25, and $7.45 per share for each of the next three years, respectively. In four years, you believe that the company will be acquired for $69.00 per share. The return on similar stocks is 11.4 percent. What is the current stock price
Answer:
The answer is $59.85
Explanation:
This question will be solved using the Dividend Discount Model. It is one of the valuation methods used in valuing price of Equity/stock.
Po = D1 + (1 + r)^n + D2 + (1 + r)^n + D2 + (1 + r)^n + CF4 /(1 + r)^n
Po is the current worth of stocks
D1, D2, D3 is the dividend paid in year 1, 2 and 3
CF4 is the price of the company in year 4
r is the discount rate
n is the number of years
$5.15 /1.114^1 + $6.25 /1.114^2 +$7.45/1.114^3 + $69/1.114^4
$4.62 + $5.04 + $5.39 + $44.80
Current price of the stock = $59.85
On December 31, 2014, Flint Corporation sold for $100,000 an old machine having an original cost of $180,000 and a book value of $80,000. The terms of the sale were as follows:
$20,000 down payment
$40,000 payable on December 31 each of the next two years
The agreement of sale made no mention of interest; however, 9% would be a fair rate for this type of transaction. What should be the amount of the notes receivable net of the unamortized discount on December 31, 2012 rounded to the nearest dollar? (The present value of an ordinary annuity of 1 at 9% for 2 years is 1.75911.)
a. $70,364
b. $90,364.
c. $80,000.
d. $140,728.
Answer:
a. $70,364
Explanation:
We must determine the present value of the notes receivable using the 9% discount rate.
PV of accounts receivable = $40,000 / 1.09 + $40,000 / 1.09² = $36,697.25 + $33,667.20 = $70,364.45
When a notes receivable is issued and carries no interests, you have to record the present value of the notes receivable in order to determine the amount that should be recorded as interest income in the future. In this case, interest income = $80,000 - $70,364 = $9,636
If James and Kamanda had reached a void agreement that included conditions, then Kamanda would have had to give James the toaster if the conditions were satisfied.
a. True
b. False
There is a problem with the question, the word void should not be there. A void agreement is simply not enforceable since it is not valid. So I will assume that they both reached a valid agreement and it was a typing mistake.
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
If two (or more) parties engage in a valid contract that includes certain specific conditions that are necessary in order to complete performance, and these conditions are met by one of the parties, then the other party must perform their part. In other words, if James performed all the conditions that were included in their contract, then Kamanda should hand over the toaster to James.

For the Third Quarter of 2017
Sales (30,000*34) 1020,000
Direct materials (30,000*16) 480,000
Direct labor (30,000*7) 210,000
Variable manufacturing overhead (30,000*3) 90,000
Total Variable Costs 780,000
Contribution Margin 240,000
Fixed Expenses 140,000
Total fixed manufacturing overhead $120,000
Fixed selling and administrative 20,000
Net Income 100,000
In this case the net income under both variable and absorption costing does not change because the units produced are units sold. No cost is charged to ending inventory under absorption costing.

Several years after reengineering its production process, King Corporation hired a new controller, Christine Erickson. She developed an ABC system very similar to the one used by King's chief rival. Part of the reason Erickson developed the ABC system was because King's profits had been declining, even though the company had shifted its product mix toward the product that had appeared most profitable under the old system. Before „ adopting the new ABC system, the company had used a plantwide overhead rate, based on direct labor hours developed years ago. For the upcoming year, King's budgeted ABC manufacturing overhead allocation rates are as follows:
Activity Allocation Base Activity Cost allocation rate
Materials handling Number of parts $4.00 per part
Machine setup Number of setups $375.00 per setup
Insertion of parts Number of parts $28.00 per part
Finishing Finishing direct labor hours $54.00 per hour
The number of parts is now a feasible allocation base because King recently purchased bar-coding technology. King produces two wheel models: Standard and Deluxe Budgeted data for the upcoming year are as follows:
Standard Delux
Parts per wheel 8 10
Setups per 1,000 wheels 20 20
Finishing direct labor hours per wheel 2 3.5
Total direct labor hours per wheel 2.6 3.4
The company's managers expect to produce 1,000 units of each model during the year.
Required:
a. Compute the total budgeted manufacturing overhead cost for the upcoming year.
b. Compute the manufacturing overhead cost per wheel of each model using ABC.
c. Compute the company's traditional plantwide overhead rate. Use this rate to determine the manufacturing overhead cost per wheel under the traditional system.
Answer:
King Corporation
a. Computation of total budgeted manufacturing overhead cost:
Activities Standard Deluxe Total
Materials handling (number of parts):
Standard = 8 x $4 x 1,000 $32,000
Deluxe = 10 x $4 x 1,000 $40,000 $72,000
Machine setup (number of parts):
= 20 x $375 $7,500 $7,500 $15,000
Insertion of parts (number of parts):
Standard = 8 x $28 x 1,000 $224,000
Deluxe = 10 x $28 x 1,000 $280,000 $504,000
Finishing (direct labor hours):
Standard = 2 x $54 x 1,000 $108,000
Deluxe = 3.5 x $54 x 1,000 $189,000 $297,000
Total $371,500 $516,500 $888,000
b. Computation of the manufacturing overhead cost per wheel of each model using ABC:
Standards = $371,500/1,000 = $371.50
Deluxe = $516,500/1,000 = $516.50
c. Computation of the company's traditional plantwide overhead rate to determine manufacturing overhead cost per wheel:
Overhead rate = $888,000/6,000 = $148
Manufacturing overhead cost per wheel:
Standard = $148 x 2.6 = $384.80
Deluxe = $148 x 3.4 = $503.20
Explanation:
a) Calculations:
Total overhead cost = $888,000
Allocation based on total direct labor hours per wheel
Plantwide overhead rate:
Total labor hours:
Standard 2.6 x 1,000 = 2,600 hours
Deluxe 3.4 x 1,000 = 3,400 hours
Total labor hours = 6,000 (2,600 + 3,400)
= $888,000/6,000 = $148 per direct hour
b) According to wikipedia.com, "Activity-based costing is a costing method that identifies activities in an organization and assigns the cost of each activity to all products and services according to the actual consumption by each. This model assigns more indirect costs into direct costs compared to conventional costing."
Tom and Suri decide to take a worldwide cruise. To do so, they need to save $15,000. They plan to invest $2,500 at the end of each year for the next six years to earn 9% compounded annually. Calculate the future value of the investment. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: $18,808.25
Explanation:
There is a constant cashflow of $2,500 making this an annuity.
The future value of the $2,500 paid every year for 6 years at 9% will be;
Future value of Annuity = 2,500 * Future Value of Annuity factor, 6 periods, 9%) (refer to attached table)
= 2,500 * 7.5233
= $18,808.25
The future value of the amount is more than the amount they would require.
