Suppose a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) research firm is approached by the state legislature and asked to provide data about vehicle movement within the state for all cars that can be tracked with direct GPS or through the owner's smartphone. Based on the movement of the cars (and phones) over a certain time, the police can decide when a car was speeding. They intend on using this data to send speeding tickets to those who moved too far, too fast. Also, if an underage driver spends too long parked by an adult only establishment, police will be notified to investigate. If you are the research firm, would you supply the data?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No. I would not supply the data.

Explanation:

Was the GIS research firm commissioned by the state legislature?  The state lacks the authority to demand the GIS information.  Moreover, the data subjects did not give their consent for the information to be used for this purpose.  It will be a violation of data privacy rules to provide the data when the consents of the data subjects were not obtained.

Each restaurant has a debt–equity ratio of 35 percent and makes interest payments of $53,000 at the end of each year. The cost of the firm’s levered equity is 20 percent. Each store estimates that annual sales will be $1.54 million; annual cost of goods sold will be $790,000; and annual general and administrative costs will be $525,000. These cash flows are expected to remain the same forever. The corporate tax rate is 40 percent.
Use the flow to equity approach to determine the value of the company’s equity.
What is the total value of the company?

Answers

Answer:

A. $516,000

B. $696,600

Explanation:

A. Calculation to to determine the value of the Company's equity

First step is to calculate the Net income

Sales1,540,000

Less: Cost of goods sold790,000

Less: General and administrative costs525,000

Less: Interest expenses53,000

Income before corporate tax 172,000

Less: Corporate tax 40% 68,800

(40%*172,000)

Net income103,200

(172,000-68,800)

Now let determine the value of the Company's equity using this formula

Value of the Company's equity

= Net income/ cost of the firm’s levered equity

Let plug in the formula

Value of the Company's equity = $103,200/0.20

Value of the Company's equity = $516,000

Therefore The Value of the Company's equity is $516,000

B. Calculation to determine the total value of Company equity

First step is to calculate the Debt

Debt equity Ratio = 0.35

Debt/Equity = 0.35

Debt/ $516,000 = 0.35

Debt = $516,000 * 0.35

Debt =$180,600

Now let determine The Company’s value using this formula

Company’s Total value = Equity + Debt

Let plug in the formula

Company’s Total value = $516,000 + $180,600

Company’s Total value = $696,600

Therefore the total value of Company equity is $696,600

Benson Company estimates its uncollectible accounts by aging its accounts receivable and applying percentages to various aged categories of accounts. Benson computes a total of $1,800 in estimated uncollectible accounts as of December 31, 2013. Its Accounts Receivable account has a balance of $56,400 and its Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a credit balance of $300 before adjustment at December 31, 2013. How much bad debts expense will Benson report in 2013

Answers

Answer:

$1,500

Explanation:

With regards to the above, we would compute Benson's Company bad debt expense for 2013 as;

= Estimated uncollectible accounts as of 31, December 2013 - Credit balance in the allowance for doubtful account before adjustment at December 31, 2013.

= $1,800 - $300

= $1,500

Therefore, Benson Company would report $1,500 as bad debts expense in 2013.

If you required return on this investment is 11%, how much will you be willing to pay for the stock today?

Answers

Answer:

$69.87

Explanation:

The price i would be willing to pay for the stock can be determined by finding the present value of the dividend payments

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 1 = 3.1

Cash flow in year 2 = 3.38

Cash flow in year 3 = 3.70

Cash flow in year 4 = 4.02

Cash flow in year 5 = 4.38 + 95 = 99.38

I = 11%

Present value = $69.87

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Hill Corporation issued $2,100,000 of 8% bonds at 98 on January 2, 2019. Interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds had a 10-year life from the date of issue, and the company uses the straight-line method of amortization. On March 31, 2022, Hill recalls the bonds at the call price of 107 plus accrued interest.

March 31, 2022:

Debit Bond Liability $2,247,000

Debit Interest Payable $42,000

Credit Cash $2,289,000

To record the recall of the bonds, including accrued interest.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

January 2, 2019: Face value of bonds issued = $2,100,000

Proceeds from the issue of the bonds at 98 =    2,058,000

Discount from the issue =                                        $42,000

Semi-annual amortization under straight-line = $2,100 ($42,000/20)

Coupon interest rate = 8% with payment made semiannually

Annual interest payment = $168,000 ($2,100,000 * 8%)

Semiannual interest payment = $84,000 ($2,100,000 * 4%)

Bonds duration = 10 years

March 31, 2022 Recall price of 107 = $2,247,000

Accrued interest from January 1 to March 31 = $42,000

Total payment to bondholders = $2,289,000

2 Jodi owns 112 shares of stock selling for $16.20. How many more shares can she purchase after receiving a dividend of $0.80 por share? Round your answer to a whole number.​

Answers

Answer:

The number of new shares = 6

Explanation:

Dividend is the proportion of profit paid by a company to its shareholder as a form of return on their investment. Another form of return on share investment is the capital gain; which is the difference between the selling price of a share now and its cost when it was purchased.

For Jodi, we need to first calculate the amount of dividends earned on the total shares she owns. And then divide the result by the current purchase price of a share to arrive at the number of shares she can buy more. This is done as follows:

Total dividends =  112× 0.80 = $89.6

Current price of a share = $16.20

THe number of shares that can be purchased= 89.6/16.20=5.5

The number of new shares = 6

Prepare the stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet at December 31

Answers

Answer:

Total stockholders' equity = $509,300

Explanation:

Before the stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet is prepared, the following are calculated first:

Common stock = Number of common shares issued * Par value of common share = 21,000 * $6 = $126,000

Additional-paid-in-capital (APIC) – Common stock = Number of common shares issued * (Common stock cash per share - Par value of common share) = 21,000 * ($19 - $6) = $273,000

Preferred stock = Number of preferred stock issued * Par value of preferred stock = 3,100 * $10 = 31,000

APIC – Preferred stock = Number of preferred stock issued * (Preferred stock cash per share - Par value of preferred stock) = 3,100 * ($23 - $10) = $40,000

Therefore, the stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet at December 31 can now be prepared as follows:

Ohio Swiss Milk Products manufactures and distributes ice cream in Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia. The company wants to expand operations by locating another plant in northern Ohio. The size of the new plant will be a function of the expected demand for ice cream within the area served by the plant. A mar-ket survey is currently under way to determine that demand. Ohio Swiss wants to estimate the relationship between the manufacturing cost per gallon and the number of gallons sold in a year to determine the demand for ice cream and, thus, the size of the new plant. The following data have been collected.

Plant Cost per Thousand Gallons (Y) Thousands of Gallons Sold (X)

c. Suppose that the market survey indicates a demand of 325,000 gallons in the Bucyrus Ohio, area. Estimate the manufacturing cost per gallon for a plant producing 325,000 gallons peryear.

Answers

Answer:

a. The regression equation required is Y = 915.18 – 0.2819X.

b. b-1. Correlation coefficient (r) = –0.9423

b-2. Coefficient of determination = r^2 = 88.80%

b-3. The negative correlation coefficient of -0.9423 implies that increase in X mostly causes a decrease in Y. The coefficient of determination implies that 88.80% variation in Y is explained by X.

c. The manufacturing cost per gallon is $823.56.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of Mean of X and Y and other values.

a. Develop a regression equation to forecast the cost per gallon as a function of the number of gallons produced.

The regression can be written as follows:

Y = bo + b1X ………………… (1)

b1 = (Sum of (Y - Mean of Y) * (X - Mean of X)) / (Sum of (X - Mean of X)^2) = –34,273.08 / 121,585.14 = –0.2819

b0 = Mean of Y – (b1 * Mean of X) = 1,018.20 - (365.44 * 0.2819) = 915.18

Substituting b) and b1 values into equation (1), regression equation to forecast the cost per gallon as a function of the number of gallons produced can be written as follows:

Y = 915.18 – 0.2819X ……………………….. (2)

Equation (2) is the regression equation required.

b. What are the correlation coefficient and the coefficient of determination? Comment on your regression equation in light of these measures.

b-1. Correlation coefficient (r) can be calculated using the following formula:

r = (Sum of (Y - Mean of Y) * (X - Mean of X)) / ((Sum of (Y - Mean of Y)^2) * (Sum of (X - Mean of X)^2))^0.5 = –34,273.08 / (10,879.60 * 121,585.14)^0.5 = –0.9423

b-2. Coefficient of determination = r^2 = –0.94^2 = 0.8880, or 88.80%

b-3. The negative correlation coefficient of -0.9423 implies that increase in X mostly causes a decrease in Y. The coefficient of determination implies that 88.80% variation in Y is explained by X.

c. Suppose that the market survey indicates a demand of 325,000 gallons in the Bucyrus Ohio, area. Estimate the manufacturing cost per gallon for a plant producing 325,000 gallons per year.

Since X and Y are in thousands, 325,000 gallons implies we have:

X = 325

Substitute X = 325 into equation (2), we have:

Y = 915.18 - (0.2819 * 325)

Expressing in full form, we have:

Y = $823

Therefore, the manufacturing cost per gallon is $823.56.

-Good guy-bad guy routine

-Browbeating

-Red herring

-Trial balloon

-Lowballing

Answer:

-Red herring

Explanation:

-Goog buy-bad guy routine is a strategy in which one person appears to be on your side and when you get to an agreement, this person goes to the bad guy for approval who will renegotiate.

-Browbeating is a strategy in which the buyer tries to affect the saleperson atittude by saying unflattering things.

-Red herring is a strategy in which one of the parties tries to distract the other one from certain isues to get an advantage.

-Trial balloon is an strategy in which one of the parties says something to the other one to get information about its position in the negotiation.

-Lowballing is an strategy in which the buyer makes a really low offer to test the seller.

According to the definitions, the answer is that the win-lose strategy used by the salesperson is red herring because Clara didn't consider the information related to the delivery when purchasing the units as she was probably distracted by other aspects and didn't consider this.

Folklore Music manufactures harmonicas. Folklore uses standard costs to judge performance. Recently, a clerk mistakenly threw away some of the records, and only partial data for July exist. Folklore knows that the total direct labor variance for the month was $350 F and that the standard labor rate was $11 per hour. A recent pay cut caused a favorable labor rate variance of $0.40 per hour. The standard direct labor hours for actual July outputs were 5,910.

Required:
a. Find the actual number of direct labor hours worked during July. First, find the actual direct labor rate per hour. Then, determine the actual number of direct labor hours worked by setting up the computation of the total direct labor variance as given.
b. Compute the direct labor rate and efficiency variances. Do these variances suggest that the manager may have made trade-offs? Explain.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. The actual direct labor rate per hour will be:

= Standard direct labor rate per hour - favorable labor rate variance

= $11 - $0.40

= $10.60

Then, the actual direct labor hours worked during July will be calculated as:

= (5910 × $11) - $350 / $10.6

= ($65010 - $350) / $10.6

= $64660 / $10.6

= 6100

b. The direct labor rate variance will be:

= (Actual rate per hour - standard rate per hour) × Actual labor hours

= (10.60 - 11.00) × 6100

= 2440F

Direct labor efficiency variance will be:

= (6900 - 5910) × $11

= 2090U

The direct labor rate variance that was favorable shows that the manager paid a lower rate to its staffs while the direct labor efficiency variance that was unfavorable implies that the manager used less efficient workers. This indicates that a trade-off took place.

= (6900

Which one of the following statements is TRUE? a. If a company has a classified board, fewer board seats are filled each year. b. A classified board is one in which an announcement requesting applications for board members appears in the newspaper. c. One tool of corporate governance is choosing a good investment banker. d. A classified board is one in which the board members serve anonymously. e. In a classified board, it is easier for dissidents to gain representation since fewer seats are up for election each year.

Answers

Answer:

The true statement about a classified board is:

a. If a company has a classified board, fewer board seats are filled each year.

Explanation:

If Company A has a classified board of directors, it implies that it has a structure that enthrones continuity and stability, enables some portion of the directors to be elected each year, and ensures that different directors have different terms to serve the company.  Depending on their classifications, some directors serve one or two years, some three or four years, some five or six years, and others servicing seven or eight years.  This type of structured board staggers the board membership, helping to save the company from unintended takeover bids, and ensuring stability and continuity.

Leandro Corp. manufactures wooden desks. Production consists of three processes: cutting, assembly, and finishing. The following costs are given for April: Cutting Assembly Finishing direct materials $7,000 $10,000 $3,000 direct labor 3,000 14,000 2,000 applied overhead 4,000 5,000 6,000 There were no work in process inventories and 1,000 podiums were produced. What is the cost transferred out of the assembly department. a.$29,000 b.$43,000 c.$54,000 d.$14,000 e.None of these choices are correct.

Answers

Answer:

a. $29,000

Explanation:

With regards to the above, the cost transferred out of the assembly department is computed as;

We would sum up all the cost associated with the Assembly department.

= Direct materials + Direct labor + Overhead

Direct materials = $10,000

Direct labor = $14,000

Overhead = $5,000

Therefore, cost transfered out of the assembly department is

= $10,000 + $14,000 + $5,000

= $29,000

Bond prices depend on the market rate of interest, stated rate of interest, and time. Determine whether the following bonds payable will be issued at face value, at a premium, or at a discount:a. The market interest rate is 4%. Denton issues bonds payable with a stated rate of 4%.b. Starkville issued 8% bonds payable when the market interest rate was 8.25%.

Answers

Answer:

a. Par value

b. Discount

Explanation:

a. As the market interest rate is 4% and the stated rate is also 4% so that means the bond would be issued at face value because both the rates are same

b. The bond rate is 8% and the market interest rate is 8.25%

so the stated interest rate is lower than the market interest rate, that means the bond would be issued at discount

hence, the same would be considered

The company is now using only 70% of its normal capacity; it could fully use its normal capacity by processing the assembly further and selling it for $51 per unit. If the company does this, material and labor costs will each increase by $2 per unit and variable overhead will go up by $1 per unit. Fixed costs will increase from the current level of $160,000 to $225,000.

Prepare an analysis showing whether Jensen should process the assemblies further.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The preparation of the analysis shows whether the assemblies should process further or not is presented below:

Differential revenue  (38,000 units × ($51 - $44)) $266,000

Differential costs:  

Direct material (38,000units × $2 per unit) ($76,000)

Direct labor (38,000units × $2 per unit) ($76,000)

Variable overhead (38,000units × $1 per unit) ($38,000)

Fixed costs ($160,000  - $225,000) ($65,000)

Additional income (loss) from processing further $11,000

Since the amount comes in positive so it should be processed further

On the worksheet the adjusted balance of a contra asset account would be extended to:

Answers

Answer: the Balance Sheet Credit column.

Explanation:

A contra account is simply an asset account which has a credit balance, unlike the normal asset account that typically has a debit balance.

The two main types of contra account include the accumulated depreciation and the allowance for bad debt. We should note that on the worksheet the adjusted balance of a contra asset account would be extended to the credit column of the balance sheet.

3. The price elasticity of demand for wine is estimated to be 1 at all possible quantities. Currently, 200 million gallons of wine are sold per year, and the price averages $6 per bottle. Assuming that the price elasticity of supply of wine is 1 and the current tax rate is $1 per bottle, calculate the current excess burden of the tax on wine. Suppose the tax per bottle is increased to $2 per bottle. What will happen to the excess burden of the tax as a result of the tax increase

Answers

Answer:

The excess burden would quadruple to $33,333

Explanation:

In order to calculate the excess burden as a result of the tax increase, we first calculate the excess burden at current tax rate which is $1 per bottle. Excess burden is calculated using the following formulae:

W = 1/2(T)²(Q/P) x (Es x Ed / (Es - Ed))

where:

T = Tax per unit

Q = Total Quantity

P = Price per unit

Es = Elasticity of Supply

Ed = Elasticity of Demand

W = 1/2(1)² (200,000/6) x (1 x 1 / (1 - (-1)))

W = 1/2 (33.333) x (1/2)

W = $8,333

Now after-tax rate goes up to $2, the excess burden would as follow:

W = 1/2(2)² (200,000/6) x (1 x 1 / (1 - (-1)))

W = 2 (33.333) x (1/2)

W = $33,333 per year

Hence, the excess burden is $33,333 after the increase in tax.

Which of the following is NOT a correct statement about diversification? A) As Dr. Melton stated in class, most diversification benefits are realized with just 20 to 25 stocks. B) Diversification is the process of reducing the riskiness associated with individual assets by spreading an investment across numerous assets. C) There is no limit to the amount of risk that can be eliminated through diversification. D) Non-diversifiable risk is the only risk that matters to a diversified investor. E) None of the above.

Answers

Answer: C. There is no limit to the amount of risk that can be eliminated through diversification.

Diversification is referred to as the process of reducing the riskiness associated with individual assets such that an investment is spread across numerous assets.

All the options given in the question are correct about diversification except that "There is no limit to the amount of risk that can be eliminated through diversification".

There is a limit to the amount of risk that diversification can eliminate. We should note that the risk in the investment cannot be completely eliminated no matter how the economic agent diversifies their portfolio. Even though the risks are reduced, every stock are still affected by general market risks.
