Answer:
The six-month forward rate on the Norwegian krone would have to be Kr/$ 5.93 to prevent arbitrage
Explanation:
In order to calculate the six-month forward rate on the Norwegian krone we would have to calculate the following formula:
six-month forward rate = S (1+id) / (1+if)
According to the given data we have the following:
S=5.83
id=5.33%
if=3.63%
Therefore, six-month forward rate =5.83 (1+5.33%) / (1+3.63%)
six-month forward rate =6.14/1.04 = 5.93
The six-month forward rate on the Norwegian krone would have to be Kr/$ 5.93 to prevent arbitrage

Explanation:
At an output level of 6,000 units, you have calculated that the degree of operating leverage is 2.3. The operating cash flow is $12,000 in this case. a. Ignoring the effect of taxes, what are fixed costs
Answer: $15,600
Explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question:
Output level = 6,000 units
Degree of operating leverage = 2.3
Operating cash flow = $12,000
Contribution margin = Degree of operating leverage × Operating cash flow
= 2.3 × $12,000
= $27,600
Fixed cost = contribution margin - Operating cash flow
= $27,600 - $12,000
= $15,600

21. Find the present values of these ordinary annuities. Discounting occurs once a year. a. $400 per year for 10 years at 10%. b. $200 per year for 5 years at 5% c. $400 per year for 5 years at 0% d. Rework parts a-c assuming they are annuities due.
Answer:
a.
PV = $2457.826842 rounded off to $2457.83
b.
PV = $865.8953341 rounded off to $865.90
c.
PV = $400
d.
PV = $2703.609527 rounded off to $2703.61
PV = $909.1901008 rounded off to $909.19
PV = $400
Explanation:
An annuity is a series of cash flows that are constant, that occur after equal interval of time and that are for a defined period of time.
An ordinary annuity is the one whose cash flows occur at the end of the period. While an annuity due is the one whose cash flows occur at the start of the period. The formula for the present value of both the ordinary and the due annuity are attached.
a.
PV = 400 * [(1 - (1+0.1)^-10) / 0.1]
PV = $2457.826842 rounded off to $2457.83
b.
PV = 200 * [(1 - (1+0.05)^-5) / 0.05]
PV = $865.8953341 rounded off to $865.90
c.
PV = 400 * [(1 - (1+0.0)^-5) / 0.0]
PV = $400
d.
PV = 400 * [(1 - (1+0.1)^-10) / 0.1] * (1+0.1)
PV = $2703.609527 rounded off to $2703.61
PV = 200 * [(1 - (1+0.05)^-5) / 0.05] * (1+0.05)
PV = $909.1901008 rounded off to $909.19
PV = 400 * [(1 - (1+0.1)^-10) / 0.1]
PV = $400
The jewelry department has an initial markup of 55.6%, with total retail reductions of 15%. There are no alteration costs or cash discounts. What is the maintained markup percentage and the gross margin percentage
Answer:
Maintained markup percentage = 48.9%
Gross margin percentage = 48.9%
Explanation:
Given:
Initial markup = 55.6%
Total retail reductions = 15%
To find the maintained markup percentage use the formula below:
%MMU = Initial MU% - Retail reductions% (100% - Initial MU%)
Substitute figures:
%MMU = 55.6% - 15% (100% - 55.6%)
= 55.6% - 15% (44.4%)
= 55.6% - 6.66%
= 48.9%
Therefore, the maintained markup percentage = 48.9%
To find the gross margin percentage, use the formula below:
GM% = (Net sales - Total cost of goods) /Net sales
We can also use this formula below to find the maintained markup percentage:
MMU% = (Net sales - Gross cost of goods) /Net sales
But we are told that there are no alteration costs or cash discounts here. Therefore the gross cost is the same as the total cost of goods.
This means that the mantained markup percentage and the gross margin percentage are equal.
GM% = 48.9%
Determine the uniform annual value for the cash flow below at an interest rate of 11% per year.
Year 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Cash Flow, 0 $ 30,000 30,000 30,000 30,000 45,000 45,000 45,000 45,000 45,000
a. $38,474
b. $37,744
c. $36,595
d. $39,595
Answer:
$36,595
Explanation:
The computation of the uniform annual value is shown below:;
Before that we need to find out the present worth which is
= $30,000 × (P/A , 11%, 4) + $45,000 × (P/A , 11%, 4) × (P/F , 11%, 4)
= $30,000 × (3.1025) + $45,000 × (3.69590) (0.65873)
= $202,630.51
Now the annual worth is
= Present value × (A/P, 11%,9)
= $202,630.51 × 0.18060
= $36,595

a. Entry Mode
b. Exporting
c. Turnkey Project
d. Licensing
e. Joint Venture
f. Wholly-Owned
g. Subsidiary
Answer:
Exporting
Advantage
Cost avoidance
Disadvantage
Lower Costs Loss.
With Exporting, one can get into a country with lower costs because they will not have to set up. However they stand to have the disadvantage of losing lower costs.
Turnkey Project
Advantage
Profit from Processes
Disadvantage
Little Future Revenue
Turnkey projects involve building a facility for another company and then fully equipping it. When it is ready you hand it over. You stand to make profits from the process of building but because the facility is given to the purchaser, there is little chance for future revenue.
Licensing
Advantage
Low capital Requirement
Disadvantage
Lost Economies
With Licensing, one does not have to spend a lot to get into a country as other companies just use your license. You however stand the risk of losing your control in the country.
Joint Venture
Advantage
Access to Local Expertise
Disadvantage
Battles for Control
With Joint Venture, an International firm will have access to the expertise of its partners who are locals and know how things are done. However, because the locals know how things are done and are in their country, there might be battles between the partners about who should dominate.
Wholly-Owned Subsidiary
Advantage
Tight Control
Disadvantage
Most Costly Method
With a wholly-owned Subsidiary, an international company will have complete control over the affairs of the business and not have to battle for it with anyone. The drawback however is the cost it will take to set up. Large amounts will always have to be spent on starting a fresh company in a different country.
The core CPI looks at the price changes of a market basket without Select one: a. luxury goods b. taxes c. food and energy d. imported goods
Answer:
The correct answer is the option C: food and energy.
Explanation:
On the one hand, the concept known as "Consumer Price Index" or CPI is refered to the measure that is basically used in economics in order to obtain the variation of prices in general that happens in a certain period of time, so that means that it focus in calculating the inflation of an economy by examinating the weighted average of prices of a basket of predetermined goods.
On the other hand, the "Core CPI" calculates the inflation in the costs of goods and services of a predetermined basket by does not include the ones from the food an energy sectors.

Skolnick Corporation has provided the following information: Cost per Unit Cost per Period Direct materials $ 5.00 Direct labor $ 4.50 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.60 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 112,000 Sales commissions $ 1.20 Variable administrative expense $ 0.50 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 35,200 Required: a. If 8,000 units are produced, what is the total amount of direct manufacturing cost incurred? (Do not round intermediate calculations.) b. If 8,000 units are produced, what is the total amount of indirect manufacturing costs incurred?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials $5.00
Direct labor $4.50
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.60
Fixed manufacturing overhead $112,000
First, we need to calculate the direct production costs if 8,000 units are produced:
Direct costs= direct material + direct labor
Direct costs= (5+4.5)*8,000= $76,000
Now, the indirect costs of production for 8,000 units.
Indirect costs= total variable costs total fixed costs
Indirect costs= 1.6*8,000 + 112,000
Indirect costs= $124,800
What are the kinds of purchases for which you’ll "spare no expense"? What kinds of purchases do you want to buy spending as little as possible? What are the major differences between these two categories that drive your attitude regarding price?
Answer:
"Spare no Expense" Purchases
When purchasing long-term items (assets) which cannot be consumed within a short-term period, one tends to "spare no expense." These purchases are dictated by their quality and not price. For example, in constructing a building an individual or an entity does not consider the price as a deciding factor. Instead, the entity goes for the best quality at whatever price. In such a situation, it can be described as "sparing no expense" because it can spend as possible as is needed to ensure that the quality of the construction was of the highest standard. A wealthy man does not spare any expense to receive medical treatment. Vacationists spare no expense to go on vacation
These purchases or items come with high prices and they last longer than a year.
On the other hand, one does not want to spend much resources on goods that are not durable. So, the person involved tend to spend as little as possible. No one wants to buy expensive food items. But, the same person can pay for an exorbitant car. No one wants to expend much resources on inner wears, but the same person can spend thousand for the outer wears, to put up appearances.
Ostentatious goods that convey image attract higher prices much more than private goods that others co not care whether you use them or not. This accords with our human natural way of believing in appearances.
The major factors that differentiate between these two categories that drive our attitude regarding price include:
a) Scarcity, b) Longevity, c) Quality, d) Price, e) Durability, f) Ostentation
Explanation:
The expression "spare no expense" means to spend as much financial resources as needed in order to make something happen or bring about an outcome.
When organizations, in an attempt to prevent _____ asks customers to not enter characters but instead select them one by one from boxes, intruders may counter with
Answer: a. keyloggers, screen scrapers
Explanation:
When organizations, in an attempt to prevent keyloggers asks customers to not enter characters but instead select them one by one from boxes, intruders may counter with screen scrapers
Keyloggers is a program that allows another person to record the keys struck on a keyboard without the person typing knowing. The person recording can them compile the information to find out very confidential information. By asking customers to select characters this can be mitigated.
Screen Scrapers on the other hand are more lethal because they record that is being displayed on a screen and transmit it to another person thereby enabling them to see what the target is doing even if they select characters from boxes.

If the real money demand is greater than the real money supply, interest rates must rise to reach equilibrium in the money market as institutions sell bonds to obtain more money.1. True2. False
Answer:
2. False
Explanation:
The market for money is like the market for any other good: if demand is higher than supply, then, the price of money (the interest rate), will have to be lowered, so that money becomes cheaper and more abundant, and supply and demand become equal and reach equilibrium.
In this case, the centrla bank needs to lower the interest rates by buying bonds. When the central bank buys bonds, it prints more money that is put in the market, effectively increasing the supply of money, and lowering the interest rate in the meantime.
Bonds owned by investors whose names and addresses are recorded by the issuing company, and for which interest payments are made with checks or cash transfers to the bondholders, are called:
Answer: Registered Bonds
Explanation:
A registered bond is one that has the owner's name and contact information recorded by the issuer so as to ensure that interest payments depending on the bond terms are rightly given out and also to track claims to coupons.The two ways bonds can be registered and transferred
1. Physically by printing owners details at the back of the certificate and BY signing or endorsing a certificate during transfer of bonds,
2. Electronically bY recording on a system database for ownership claim and for transfer of bonds.
The opposite of a Registered bond is a Bearer bond, Here, the owner"s details and information are not recorded.

Joseph's tax basis in his partnership interest is $40,550
b. According to the given data Joseph contributed equipment with a tax basis of $14,800, therefore, Berry Hill’s basis in the equipment is $14,800
Companies increasingly strive to achieve the ______ performance when formulating their corporate strategy.
Answer:
triple bottom line
Explanation:
Companies increasingly strive to achieve the triple bottom line performance when formulating their corporate strategy. The triple bottom line (TBL) is a framework used in business that focuses on equally on social/environmental concerns as well as profits, thus creating three equal points of interest (bottom lines) which are profit, people, and the environment. This leads to a successful and balanced company.
A jeans maker is designing a new line of jeans called Slims. The jeans will sell for $355 per pair and cost $262.70 per pair in variable costs to make. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Required:
a. Compute the contribution margin per pair.
b. Compute the contribution margin ratio.
Answer:
a.$92.30
b.27.55%
Explanation:
a. Computation for the contribution margin per pair
Sales 355.00 per pair
Less:Variable cost $262.70 per pair
Contribution margin $92.30 per pair
Therefore the Contribution margin per pair will be $92.30
b. Computation for the contribution margin ratio.
Using this formula
Contribution margin ratio=Contribution margin per unit/Selling price per unit
Where,
Contribution margin per unit =$92.30
Selling price per unit =$335.00
Let plug in the formula
Contribution margin ratio=$92.30/$335.00
Contribution margin ratio =27.55%
Therefore the Contribution margin ratio will be 27.55%
Michael is unaware that it is very important for those from Japan to establish close personal relationships before talking about business. His violation of such ____, which concerns routine social conventions, is probably the main reason that he fails to have Norio sign the contract.
Answer:
Mores
Explanation:
Mores are the behaviors and customs that people have in a particular place and usually, they expect that you adhere to them when you are there and you would probably be judge based on that. According to this, the answer is that Michael's violations of such mores, which concerns routine social conventions, is probably the main reason that he fails to have Norio sign the contract because he didn't follow the custom people have in Japan to establish close personal relationships before talking about business and that affected his image because Michael's behavior was not acceptable for them.
Sebastian purchases two pieces of equipment for $189,000. Appraisals of the equipment indicate that the fair market value of the first piece of equipment is $132,300 and that of the second piece of equipment is $207,900. What is Sebastian's basis in these two assets? If required, round your interim calculations to two decimal places. Use rounded amounts in subsequent computations. If required, round final answers to the nearest dollar. Sebastian's basis for the first piece of equipment is $ and $ for the second piece of equipment.
Answer:
Sebastian basis in first piece of assets is $73,500 and second piece of assets is $115,500
Explanation:
Calculation of the total fair market value
Total fair market value = Fair market value of first piece of equipment + Fair market value of second piece of equipment
Total fair market value = $132,300 + $207,900
Total fair market value = $340,200
Therefore, the total fair market value is $340,200.
Calculation of Sebastian “S” basis in assets:
“S” basis in assets in first piece of assets = Fair market value of first piece of equipment / Total fair market value * Purchase cost
= $132,300 / $340,200 * $189,000
= $73,500
“S” basis in assets in second piece of assets = Fair market value of second piece of equipment / Total fair market value * Purchase cost
= $207,900 / $340,200 * $189,000
= $115,500
“S” basis in first piece of assets is $73,500 and second piece of assets is $115,500.
On May 10, Monty Corp. issues 1,900 shares of $4 par value common stock for cash at $13 per share. Journalize the issuance of the stock. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)
Answer:
May 10, 2020, 1,900 shares issued at $13
Dr Cash 24,700
Cr Common stock 7,600
Cr Additional paid in capital 17,100
The common stock account increases using the pay value as reference. For example, if the common stock account = $200,000 and the par value of the stocks = $4, then we know that the company has 50,000 common stocks outstanding.
If investors pay any amount over the stocks' par value, that amount must be reported as additional paid in capital, in this case for common stock.

When longer-term employees' salaries are lower than those of workers entering the firm today, ______ has occurred.
Answer: Salary compression
Explanation:
Salary compression is a situation that occurs when there is a negligible differences in pay between the workers in an organization despite the experience and skills level.
It usually occurs when the pay of the current employees that are working with a company does not keep up with the rise in market pay rate thereby giving rise to a situation whereby new employees are employed at a identical pay or better pay to those that have been at the organization.
Suppose there is an improvement in technology in this market and the price of lamps, a complementary good, increases. What changes do you predict in the equilibrium price and quantity
Answer:
Complementary goods are those goods that, as the word implies, are often used together. For example: milk and cereals, or gasoline and cars.
If the price of a complementary good increases, then, the price of the other complementary good will likely increase as well. The quantity demanded for both will fall, will the supply will increase.
This is exactly what would happen in the case, the price of the good that is complementary to lamps will increase, and its quantity demanded will fall.
