Explanation:
1. Current ratio = Curren assets / Curren liabilities.
For Simon:
Current assets are:
Cash and cash equivalents $ 620
Short-term investments $3,690
Net receivables $992
Inventory $510
Other current assets $335
Total current assets $6,147
Current liabilities are:
Accounts payable $7,220
Short-term debt $1,270
Other current liabilities. $0
Total current liabilities $8,490
So current asset is $6,147/$8,490
0.72:1
For Garfunkel:
Current assets are:
Cash and cash equivalents $2,920
Short-term investments $0
Net receivables $1,330
Inventory $203
Other current assets $477
Total current assets $4,930
Current liabilities are:
Accounts payable $4,285
Short-term debt $1,028
Other current liabilities. $1,306
Total current liabilities $6,619
So current asset is $4,930/$6,619
0.74:1
1b Simon current asset is 0.72 while Garfunkel's own is 0.74
Therefore Garfunkel with 0.74 has a better current ratio
2a. Acid-test ratio = total current assets minus Inventory / total current liabilities
For Simon:
($6,147 - $510) / $8,490
=0.66:1
For Garfunkel:
($4,930 - $203) / $6,619
=0.71:1
2b. Garfunkel with 0.71 has a better acid-test ratio

If the government removes a binding price floor from a market, then the price received by sellers will Group of answer choices decrease, and the quantity sold in the market will decrease decrease, and the quantity sold in the market will increase increase, and the quantity sold in the market will decrease. increase, and the quantity sold in the market will increase.
Answer:
decrease, and the quantity sold in the market will decrease decrease,
Explanation:
Price floor is set by the government or an agency of the government and it is the minimum price that a good or service must be sold.
A price floor is binding if it is set above equilibrium price.
If a binding price floor is removed, price would fall back towards equilibrium and the quantity sold would decrease.
The fall in quantity supplied is in line with the law of supply which says the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied and the lower the price , the lower the quantity supplied.

Crisp Cookware's common stock is expected t opay a dividend of $1.50 a share at the end of this year; its beta is 0.6. The risk free rate is 5.6% and the market risk premium is 4%. The dividend is expected to grow at some constant rate and the stock currently sells for $50 a share. Asuming the market is in equilibrium, what does the market believe will be the stock price at the end of 3 years
Answer: $57
Explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
The risk free rate = 5.6%
The market risk premium = 4%
The stick beta = 0.6
The required return will be:
= Risk free rate + (Beta × Market risk premium)
= 5.6% + (0.6 × 4%)
= 5.6% + 2.4%
= 8% = 0.08
Crisp Cookware's common stock is expected to pay a dividend of $1.50 a share at the end of this year, Therefore,
D1 = $1.50
The current stock price will now be:
= D1/(Required return - Growth rate)
50= 1.5/(0.08 - growth rate)
(0.08 - growth rate) = 1.5/50
(0.08 - growth rate) = 0.03
Growth rate = 0.08 - 0.03
Growth rate = 0.05 = 5%
D4 = D1 × (1+Growth rate)³
D4 = 1.5 × (1 + 0.05)³
D4 = 1.5 × (1.05)³
D4 = 1.5 × 1.1576
D4 = $1.7364
The stock price at the end of the year 3
will be:
= D4/(Required return - Growth rate)
= 1.7364/(0.08 - 0.05)
= 1.7364/0.03
= $57
The market believe that the stock price at the end of 3 years will be $57
If the government sets a price ceiling of $4, market forces will cause:
a. the quantity demanded to drop and the quantity supplied to rise.
b. a shortage will exist. a surplus will exist.
c. market forces will cause demand to drop and supply to rise.
d. market forces will cause supply to drop and demand to rise.
The table for the question is in the attachment.
Answer:
b. a shortage will exist.
Explanation:
Considering the table from the diagram, it shows that, when the price of Refrigerator Magnet is at 4 dollars, the Quantity demanded is 9, while the Quantity supplied is 4. This equates that, there is shortage of 5 in quantity supplied.
In other words, at the price of 4 dollars, the Quantity demanded is greatee than the Quantity supplied by 5.
Hence, the correct answer is B. A shortage will exist.

Answer:
Explanation:
For each situation, identify the possible root cause or causes of activity cost, among these:
1. Plant Layout
2. Process design
3. Product design
(A) PROCESS DESIGN
The design of the process of production is the root cause of activity cost here. From the rates given, it's clear that the manual method of production costs more time and money than the mechanical production method.
A minor cause of activity cost here is the PRODUCT DESIGN; the cost of which varies with the use of labour and the use of machine.
(B) PRODUCT DESIGN
Change in design of the gear (removal of some component parts) reduces set up time and cost.
(C) PLANT LAYOUT
Redesign of manufacturing plant saves the time and cost of moves.
The Green Giant has a 6 percent profit margin and a 37 percent dividend payout ratio. The total asset turnover is 1.2 times and the equity multiplier is 1.4 times. What is the sustainable rate of growth
Answer:
0.0678
Explanation:
Given:
Profit margin = 6% = 0.06
Dividend payout ratio = 37% = 0.37
Total asset turnover = 1.2
Equity multiplier = 1.4
Required:
Find the sustainable rate of growth.
First find the return on equity using the formula: Equity Multiplier × Assets turnover × Profit margin
= 1.4 * 1.2 * 0.06
= 0.1008
Return on equity = 0.1008
To find the sustainable growth, we have the following:
[tex]= \frac{0.1008 (1 - 0.37)}{1 - (0.1008 (1 - 0.37))}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{0.063504}{1 - 0.063504} = 0.0678[/tex]
Therefore, sustainable growth = 0.0678
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

Benge Automotive issued a corporate bond with a face value of $1,000, with a 10% annual coupon rate paid semiannually. The bond matures in 12 years and sells at a price of $1,080. What is the component cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation
Answer:
The answer is 8.90%
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The bond face value =$1000
Annual coupon rate =10%
Maturity rate =12 years
Price sold at =1080
Now we find the component cost of debt for use
Thus
The debt (cost) = Yield to maturity
So
YTM = Annual interest payment + [(Face value - Present price / Years to maturity] / [0.6(Price of bond) + 0.4 (principal payment)]
= $100 + [($1000 - $1080) / 12] / [0.6 * $1080 + 0.4 * $1000]
= $100 - 6.67 / $1048
= $93.33 / $1048
= 0.0890 or 8.90%
Therefore the debt for use is 8.90%
Gilbert Company generated sales revenues of $1,800,000 in 2017. Its cost of goods sold amounted to $990,000. Calculate Gilbert's gross profit percentage. Supporting Materials Cost of goods sold / Group of answer choices 55% 45% 222% 182%
Answer:
45%
Explanation:
The computation of the gross profit percentage is shown below:
As we know that
Gross profit percentage = Gross profit ÷ Sale revenue × 100
where,
Gross profit is
= Sales revenue - the cost of goods sold
= $1,800,000 - $990,000
= $810,000
And, the sales revenue is $1,800,000
So, the gross profit percentage is
= $810,000 ÷ $1,800,000
= 45%
Hence, the gross profit percentage is 45%
After your project team has completed the task to develop potential ideas to increase productivity, as the project team leader, what would be your FIRST step (message-sending process) when presenting your ideas for approval and further guidance.

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.
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.

The issue pays interest annually and has 11 years remaining to its maturity date. a. If bonds of similar risk are currently earning a rate of return of 9%, how much should the Complex Systems bond sell for today? b. Describe the two possible reasons why the rate on similar-risk bonds is below the coupon interest rate on the Complex Systems bond. c. If the required return were at 16% instead of 9%, what would the current value of Complex Systems' bond be? Contrast this finding with your findings in part a and discuss.
Answer:
a. Complex Systems' bond price today = $1,476.36
Explanation:
a. If bonds of similar risk are currently earning a rate of return of 9%, how much should the Complex Systems bond sell for today?
This can be calculated by adding the Present Value of Coupons and the Present Value of Par Value as follows:
Calculation of Present Value of Coupons
The present of coupons is calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
Present value of coupons = C × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + r)]^n} ÷ r] …………………………………. (1)
Where;
C = Annual coupon amount = Par value * Coupon rate = $1,000 * 16% = $160
r = required rate of return or return of similar risk = 9%, or 0.09
n = number of years = 11
Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:
Present value of coupons = $160 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.09)]^11} ÷ 0.09] = $1,088.83
Calculation of Present Par of Value
To calculate this, we use the present value formula as follows:
Present Value of Par Value = Par value / (1 + r)^n
Since Par Value is $1000 and r and n are as already given above, we have:
Present value of Par Value = $1,000 / (1 + 0.09)^11 = $387.53
Therefore, we have:
Complex Systems' bond price today = Present value of coupons + Present value of Par Value = $1,088.83 + $387.53 = $1,476.36
b. Describe the two possible reasons why the rate on similar-risk bonds is below the coupon interest rate on the Complex Systems bond.
The following are the possible two reasons:
1. Interest may vary bust the coupon is fixed. What can cause the interest rate to vary is the bond rating by rating agency. But his will not affect the coupon rate which is fixed. When the rating is high, the interest will be low. But when the rating is low, the interest will be high. This indicates a negative relationship between the rating and the interest rate.
2. The level of demand may also influence the interest rate to change. When the demand is high, the interest will be low. But when the demand is low, the interest will be high. This also indicates a negative relationship between the demand and the interest rate.
c. If the required return were at 16% instead of 9%, what would the current value of Complex Systems' bond be? Contrast this finding with your findings in part a and discuss.
To do this, we simply change he required return to 16% (or 0.16) in part a and proceed as follows:
Present value of coupons at 16% = $160 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.16)]^11} ÷ 0.016] = $804.58
Present value of Par Value at 16% = $1,000 / (1 + 0.16)^11 = $195.42
Complex Systems' bond price today at 16% = $804.58 + $195.42 = $1,000.00
Comparing part c result with part a result shows that if the coupon rate is greater than the required rate of return, the bond is sold at a premium. That is, price of bond will be more than par. As it can be seen in part a, the price of bond is $1,476.36 when the coupon rate of 16% is greater than the required return of 9%.
Also, the bond will be sold at par when the coupon rate and require return are equal. This is shown in part c where the bond is sold at $1,000 when both coupon rate and required return rate are equal to 16%.
By implication, we can also infer without doing any calculation that the bond will be sold at a discount if the coupon rate is less than the required rate of return.
ProBuilder reports merchandise sales of $80,000 and cost of merchandise sales of $20,000 in its first year of operations ending June 30, 2016. It makes fiscal-year-end adjusting entries for estimated future returns and allowances equal to 3% of sales, or $2,400, and 3% of cost of sales, or $600.Required:a. Prepare the June 30, 2016, fiscal-year-end adjusting journal entry for future returns and allowances related to sales. b. Prepare the June 30, 2016, fiscal-year-end adjusting journal entry for future returns and allowances related to cost of sales.
Answer and Explanation:
The adjusting entries are as follows:
1. Sales returns and allowances $2,400
To Sales refund payable $2,400
(Being the returns and allowance is recorded)
For recording this we debited the sales returns as it increased the sales return and credited the sales refund payable as it increased the liabilities
2. Inventory returns estimated $600
To Cost of goods sold $600
(Being the cost of sales is recorded)
For recording this we debited the inventory returns as it increased the returns inventory and credited the cost of goods sold as it decrease the expenses
Suppose the demand for macaroni is inelastic, the supply of macaroni is elastic, the demand for cigarettes is inelastic, and the supply of cigarettes is elastic. If a tax were levied on the sellers of both of these commodities, we would expect that the burden of
Answer:
both taxes would fall more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers
Explanation:
Here are the options:
a. both taxes would fall more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers. b. the macaroni tax would fall more heavily on the sellers than on the buyers, and the burden of the cigarette tax would fall more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers c. the macaroni tax would fall more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers, and the burden of the cigarette tax would fall more heavily on the sellers than on the buyers O d. both taxes would fall more heavily on the sellers than on the buyers.
Tax is a compulsory sum levied on goods and services. Taxes increases the price of goods and services
Supply is elastic if a small change in price leads to a greater change in the quantity supplied.
Demand is inelastic if there's little or no change in demand when price is increased.
More burden of tax should fall on the consumers because their demand is inelastic. So, if prices rise as a result of the tax, there would be little or no change in quantity demanded.
But in the case of suppliers, they are sensitive to price and a rise in price would cause quantity supplied to fall and revenue would fall.

Suppose that policymakers are doing cost-benefit analysis on a proposal to add traffic barriers to divide the flow of traffic in an effort to increase safety on a given highway. Which of the following statements is correct?
A. Because human life is priceless, any measure to increase traffic safety would generate benefits that outweigh the costs.
B. Estimating the value of a human life is difficult but necessary in order to evaluate the proposal.
C. The benefits are usually easier to measure than the costs.
D. Both a and b are correct.
Answer:
B. Estimating the value of a human life is difficult but necessary in order to evaluate the proposal.
Explanation:
Cost benefit analysis is a method used to guage the cost involved in an undertaking or process compared to the benefit.
If the coat is higher than the benefit the activity is discarded.
However if the benefit is greater than the cost it is a good activity to adopt.
In this scenario there is a proposal to add traffic barriers to divide the flow of traffic in an effort to increase safety on a given highway.
We will weigh the cost of setting up traffick barriers and the estimated value of human life.
If cost is more than the value of human life then the project is abandoned. But if value of human life is higher than the cost the project can proceed.
Although it is hard to estimate value of human life, we need to make an estimate in order to use the cost benefit analysis
Jason just joined a new gym and signed up for a one-year membership. Membership fees can be paid in 12 monthly payments of $50, due at the beginning of each month or in one payment today. If the appropriate interest rate is 11%,.How much should he pay today for the annual membership?
Answer:
$570.91
Explanation:
For computing, the amount pay today for the annual membership we just need to apply the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attachment
Provided that
Future value = $0
Rate of interest = 11% ÷ 12 months = 0.916666%
NPER = 12 months
PMT = $50
The formula is shown below:

Answer:
1. What was the balance in gross accounts receivable as of 12/31/2020?
= allowance for doubtful accounts 2020 / 10% = $28,000 / 10% = $280,000
2. What journal entry should Johnson record to recognize bad debt expense for 2021?
Dr Bad debt expense (= 46,670 + 51,300) 97,970
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 97,970
3. Assume Johnson made no other adjustment of the allowance for uncollectible accounts during 2021. Determine the amount of accounts receivable written off during 2021.
= credit balance allowance for doubtful accounts January 1 + debit balance allowance for doubtful accounts December 31 = $28,000 + $51,300 = $79,300
4. If Johnson instead used the direct write-off method, what would the bad debt expense be
The bad debt expense would equal $79,300. The allowance for doubtful accounts is used as an estimate of future bad debt expense, while the direct write off method directly writes off bad debt as they occur.
Explanation:
beginning balance of allowance for doubtful accounts $28,000
gross accounts receivable $466,700 x 10% = $46,670 bad debt
before adjustments, the allowance for doubtful accounts had a debit balance of $51,300
On January 1, 2021, Perez Co. issued at par $10,000 of 6% bonds convertible in total into 1,000 shares of Perez's common stock. No bonds were converted during 2021. Throughout 2021, Perez had 1,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Perez's 2021 net income was $4,500, and its income tax rate is 30%. No potentially dilutive securities other than the convertible bonds were outstanding during 2021. Perez's diluted earnings per share for 2021 would be:_________.a. $5.00.
b. $4.54.
c. $4.50.
d. $4.72.
Answer:
EPS = $4.50
diluted EPS = $2.46
Explanation:
no option is correct since EPS = $4.50, and the rest of the options are all higher amounts. Diluted EPS are always smaller than EPS.
common stock outstanding = 1,000 stocks
bonds shares (diluted) = 1,000 stocks
net income = $4,500
bond interest = $10,000 x 6% x (1 - 30%) = $420
diluted earnings per share = ($4,500 + $420) / (1,000 shares + 1,000 shares) = $4,920 / 2,000 shares = $2.46

Gall Manufacturing sells a product for $50 per unit. The fixed costs are $840,000, and the variable costs are 60 percent of the selling price. As a result of new automated equipment, it is anticipated that fixed costs will increase by $200,000 and variable costs will be 50 percent of the selling price. The new break-even point in units is
Answer:
41,600 units
Explanation:
The computation of the break even point in unit is shown below:
As we know that
Break Even Point:
= Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
where,
Fixed Cost = $840,000 + $200,000
= $1,040,000
And,
Variable cost per unit is
= 50% 0f selling price
= $50 × 50%
= $25
So, the break even point in units is
= $1,040,000 ÷ $25
= 41,600 units
