Answer:
Rate is 1.5 times the straight line depreciation rate which is;
= [tex]\frac{80,000}{8}[/tex]
= $10,000 per year
Rate = [tex]\frac{10,000}{80,000}[/tex] * 100%
=12.5%
Reducing balance rate = 12.5% * 1.5
= 18.75%
The Depreciation Schedule would be;

Mars Inc. produces 100,000 boxes of Snickers bars which sell for $4 a box. If variable costs are $3 per box, and it has $150,000 fixed operating costs, in the short run, it should
Answers
Answer:
It should continue the production in the short-run.
Explanation:
Given the unit produced by Mars Inc. = 100000 boxes.
The selling price of boxes = $4 per box.
The variable costs = $3 per box.
The fixed costs = $150000
The total sales revenue = number of boxes × selling price
= 100000 × 4
= $ 400000
In the short run, the firm should continue its production because it still covers the variable costs.

A seller lists property with a multimillion-dollar broker. The broker's agreement calls for him to enter the listing into the MLS within three working days. On the second day, the broker shows the property to a prospective buyer, who loves it. The buyer is leaving town the next day but will be back in one week to purchase it if it is still on the market. The broker wants to double his commission by selling his own listing, so he withholds the information from the MLS for 10 days. Based on this information, the broker ______________.
Answers
Answer: B) may be liable to the seller for violating duties required by the listing agreement.
Explanation:
The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a database that allows brokers to cooperate in finding buyers for homes. They list the properties for sale and if other brokers know people who need such a house they will reach out and buy it. The listing broker and the selling broker will then share commissions.
This is what the broker was trying to avoid by withholding the information from the MLS.
However, the broker is in violation of the listing agreement which stated that he should post it on the MLS within 3 working days and as such there is a very real chance that he is liable to the seller for this violation.

a-1. From a legal perspective, what is the maximum amount of dividends per share the firm could pay? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
a-2. Is this realistic?
A. Yes
B. No
b. In terms of cash availability, what is the maximum amount of dividends per share the firm could pay? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
c. Assume the firm earned an 20 percent return on stockholders’ equity last year. If the board wishes to pay out 40 percent of earnings in the form of dividends, how much will dividends per share be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answers
Answer:
a-1. From a legal perspective, what is the maximum amount of dividends per share the firm could pay?
Dividends can only be paid from retained earnings because a corporation can distribute dividends only if it has made a profit.
Maximum amount of dividends per share = $811,000 / 300,000 common shares = $2.7033 per share
a-2. Is this realistic?
B. No
No corporation has a 100% dividend payout rate because it uses retained earnings to finance existing or new projects.
b. In terms of cash availability, what is the maximum amount of dividends per share the firm could pay?
$1.35 per share because the firm has $406,000 in cash and it has 300,000 outstanding shares.
c. Assume the firm earned an 20 percent return on stockholders’ equity last year. If the board wishes to pay out 40 percent of earnings in the form of dividends, how much will dividends per share be?
ROE = net income / stockholders' equity
20% = net income / $1,411,000
net income = $1,411,000 x 20% = $282,200
dividends = $282,200 x 40% = $112,880
dividends per share = $112,880 / 300,000 = $0.38 per share
The purpose of a buffer statement in a negative message is to ________. a. ensure that the company avoids legal liability. b. reduce the reader's shock or pain related to the bad news. c. inform the reader of the reasons for the bad news. d. explain company policy regarding the bad-news message.
Answers
Answer:
The correct answer is: b. reduce the reader's shock or pain related to the bad news.
Explanation:
Communication is a fundamental tool that promotes synergy for a company to achieve its objectives and goals. Through this process, it is possible to pass on essential information, integrate employees, strengthen the organization's reputation, promote a good relationship with the internal and external environment, etc.
However, many times companies also need to transmit some bad news, so it is important that there are resources and tools so that communication is carried out in a clear and effective manner without causing any type of situation that alarms the recipients of the message, therefore the buffer statement is used at the beginning of a letter or commercial communication to reduce the impact of bad news, helping to prepare the reader for what will be communicated, explaining the context of the message in a more neutral and not so alarming way.

If the ending inventory of a firm is overstated by $50,000, by how much and in what direction (overstated or understated) will the firm's operating income be misstated? (Hint: Use the cost of goods sold model, enter hypothetically "correct" data, and then reflect the effects of the ending inventory error and determine the effect on cost of goods sold.)
Answers
Answer:
50,000 overstated.
Explanation:
As the ending inventory is overstated by 50,000 we can conclude the implications using the inventory identity:
Beginning + Purchase = COGS + Ending
As the left side will be the correct display they will have no error.
Therefore the COGS will compensate the mistake in the ending ivnentory
0 = COGS + 50,000
COGS = -50,000
The COGS are 50,000 lower than it should be therefore the gross profit is overstated as
Sales - COGS = Gross Profit
0 - (-50,000) = Gross Profit
+ 50,000 = Gross Profit
This also makes the operating income which, derives from gross profit to be overstated as well.
Structuring a Special-Order Problem Harrison Ford Company has been approached by a new customer with an offer to purchase 10,000 units of its model IJ5 at a price of $5 each. The new customer is geographically separated from the company's other customers, and existing sales would not be affected. Harrison normally produces 75,000 units of IJ5 per year but only plans to produce and sell 60,000 in the coming year. The normal sales price is $12 per unit. Unit cost information for the normal level of activity is as follows: Direct materials $1.75 Direct labor 2.50 Variable overhead 1.50 Fixed overhead 3.25 Total $9.00 Fixed overhead will not be affected by whether or not the special order is accepted.
Direct Materials $1.75
Direct Labor 2.50
Variable Overhead 1.50
Fixed Overhead 3.25
Total $9.00
Requried:
a. What are the relevant costs and benefits of the two alternatives (accept or reject the special order)?
b. By how much will operating income increase or decrease if the order is accepted?
Answers
Answer:
Effect on income= $7,500 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Special offer:
Units= 10,000
Price= $5
Production costs:
Direct Materials $1.75
Direct Labor 2.50
Variable Overhead 1.50
Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.
Effect on income= number of units*unitary contribution margin
Effect on income= 10,000*(5 - 1.75 - 2.5 - 1.5)
Effect on income= $7,500 increase

Pension funds are pools of investment that are used to prepare an employee for retirement. Pension contributions are made either by the employer or the employee.
These funds are collected and invested by Pension Fund Administrators (PFA).
Primarily pension funds are invested in stocks and bonds.
The aim of the investments is to make low risk profit on the funds. So Ryan is not worried about the safety of his pension contributions because they are put in conservative investments that have low risk of loss.
The Jewel Golf Club Company, which recently began using a kanban system, has had problems with high inventory levels of one of the handle grips used to make several versions of its clubs. Daily demand for the grip is 3000 units, average waiting time during production is 0.20 day, processing time is 0.10 day per container, and a container holds 150 grips.Use the information in Case 6.2. How many Kanban containers would Jewel require if a 10% policy variable is used? a. three or fewer b. four or five c. five or six d. six or seven
Answers
Answer:
d. six or seven
Explanation:
Given that:
Daily demand for the grip = 3000 units
average waiting time = 0.20 day
processing time = 0.10 day / container
a container holds = 150 grips
percentage of policy used = 10% = 0.10
The objective of this question is to determine the amount of Kanban containers would Jewel require.
the amount of Kanban containers = Demand ( wasting time + processing time)(1+percentage policy)/ amount of container holding
the amount of Kanban containers = 3000( 0.2 + 0.1) ( 1+ 0.10)/ 150
the amount of Kanban containers = 3000 ( 0.30) (1.10)/150
the amount of Kanban containers = 990/150
the amount of Kanban containers = 6.6
SO we can infer that the amount of Kanban containers would Jewel require if a 10% policy variable is used falls within the range of six or seven.

The company believes that with this new machine, it will improve productivity and increase quality, resulting in an increase in net annual cash flows of $98,800 for the next 6 years. Management requires a 10% rate of return on all new investments
Required:
a. Calculate the internal rate of return on this new machine. Should the investment be accepted?
b. Calculate cash payback period, internal rate of return, and apply decision rules.
Answers
Answer:
10%
Yes
4.36 years
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.
IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator:
Cash flow in year 0 = $-430,300
Cash flow each year from year one to six = $98,800
IRR =10%
The project should be accepted because the IRR is equal to the required rate of return
Cash payback calculates how long it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flow.
Cash payback = amount invested / cash flow =
$430,300 / $98,800 = 4.36 years
To find the IRR using a financial calacutor:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

After deciding to acquire a new car, you can either lease the car or purchase it with a three-year loan. The car you want costs $38,000. The dealer has a leasing arrangement where you pay $105 today and $505 per month for the next three years. If you purchase the car, you will pay it off in monthly payments over the next three years at an APR of 6 percent. You believe that you will be able to sell the car for $26,000 in three years. a. What is the present value of leasing the car
Answers
Answer:
The present value of leasing the car is $16,704.86 and the break even sale price is $25483.48.
Explanation:
Solution
Given that
The monthly rate =0.06/12 =(6%/12)
the number of period = 3 * 12 =23
Now
The present value of leasing the car is computed below:
Payment day =$105
add: Present value of future monthly payment = 505 * (1-(1+(0.06/12))^-36/(0.06/12)
= 166,599,86
Present value of the car =$105 +$166,599,86
=$16,704.86
Thus
The present value of purchasing the car:
Purchase cost = $38,000
Less: present value of resale = 26000/(1+(0.06/12))^-36
=21,726.77
Present value of purchasing the car is $38,000 + $21,726.77
=$16,273.23
Now
The break even sale price
Let the resale price be x
38000 -(x/((1+(0.06/12))^-36 =16704.86
(x/((1+(0.06/12))^-36 = 38000 - 16704.86
(x/((1+(0.06/12))^-36 = 21295.14
x = ((1+(0.06/12))^-36 * 212954.14
x = 25483.48
Therefore the present value of leasing the car is $16,704.86 and the break even sale price is $25483.48

Answers
Answer:
1. Record a liability.
2. Disclose in notes.
3. Disclose in notes.
Explanation:
The issue here relates to a Contingent Liability which is a provision that is recorded in the books as a liability if there is a likelihood that the firm will incur it in future. This is usually done for law suits.
The general rule is: Record a liability if the loss is probable and estimable.
If a loss is not probable, disclose it in the notes.
If a loss is not estimable, disclose it in the notes.
1. Loss is both estimable and it is probable that Humphrey will lose the case. It should be recorded as a liability.
2. It is probable that Humphrey will lose the case however, loss is not estimable. Disclose in the notes.
3. It is not probable that Humphrey will lose the case. Disclose in the notes.

A stock has an expected return of 15.0 percent, its beta is 0.90, and the risk-free rate is 5.3 percent. What must the expected return on the market be
Answers
Answer:
16.07%
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return on the market is shown below
As we know that
Expected Return on stock = Risk free return + beta ( Expected Market Rate of Return - Risk free return )
15 % = 5.3% + 0.90 × (Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3%)
15 % - 5.3% ÷ 0.90 = Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3%
10.77% = Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3 %
So, expected market rate of return is
= 10.77 + 5.3%
= 16.07%

Blue Sky Drone Company has a total asset turnover ratio of 3.50x, net annual sales of $25 million, and operating expenses of $11 million (including depreciation and amortization). On its balance sheet and income statement, respectively, it reported total debt of $2.50 million on which it pays a 7% interest rate. To analyze a company’s financial leverage situation, you need to measure the firm’s debt management ratios. Based on the preceding information, what are the values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratios?
Answers
Answer:
The values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratio is 0.35
Explanation:
In order to calculate the values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratios we would have to make the following calculation:
debt management ratio=Total Debt / Total Assets
According to the given we have that it reported total debt of $2.50 million.
To calculate the total assets we would have to use the following formula:
Total Asset Turnover Ratio = Net Sales / Total Assets
3.50=$25,000,000/Total Assets
Total Assets=$25,000,000/3.50
Total Assets=$7,142,857
Therefore, debt management ratio=$2,500,000/$7,142,857
debt management ratio=0.35
The values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratio is 0.35

Answers
Answer: 5.33%
Explanation:
Use a financial calculator to get this faster.
On the calculator input the following.
FV = 1,000 because when it matures in 18 years it will be worth this
PV = -1007.49 as that is the current value. Should be in negative.
PMT = 54 because the coupon payments are 5.4% from the par of $1,000 which is $54.
N = 18
Click compute / CPT and then click I/Y.
You should get a YTM of 5.33%.

Meade Nuptial Bakery makes very elaborate wedding cakes to order. The company has an activity-based costing system with three activity cost pools. The activity rate for the Size-Related activity cost pool is $1.22 per guest. (The greater the number of guests, the larger the cake.) The activity rate for the Complexity-Related cost pool is $36.21 per tier. (Cakes with more tiers are more complex.) Finally, the activity rate for the Order-Related activity cost pool is $83.33 per order. (Each wedding involves one order for a cake.) The activity rates include the costs of raw ingredients such as flour, sugar, eggs, and shortening. The activity rates do not include the costs of purchased decorations such as miniature statues and wedding bells, which are accounted for separately.

Risk and Return. Suppose that the risk premium on stocks and other securities did, in fact, rise with total risk (i.e., the variability of returns) rather than just market risk. Explain how investors could exploit the situation to create portfolios with high expected rates of return but low levels of risk. (LO12-2)
Answers
Answer:
The overview of the given scenario is described in the explanation segment below.
Explanation:
Diversification could never eradicate the systematic risk. It's indeed primarily even though all securities shift somewhat in unison (a significant part of their volatility is purposeful) also that diversified stock strategies remain volatile. Additionally, if I am a thing that separates by purchasing a proportion throughout the S & P indicator, I would also have indeed very variable returns because the global economy as a whole has been fluctuating widely.The unsystematic risk seems to be the volatility in share markets arising through factors unique to something like an individual's abilities. The risk involved with this kind of volatility is essentially the form whereby diversification could increasing.The entire premise of portfolio selection would be that, to both the degree that shares don't shift in unison all of the occasions, variations throughout the performance from every other given sector appear to have been wiped clean or softened out by additional differences in contributions from several other investments.
