Answer:
Infant-industry argument
Explanation:
Here is a paraphrased version of the lobbyist's claim and it is from here that we get our answer.
"He claims that this industry in question is new and currently cannot compete with foreign industry".
What this tells us is that this industry in question is an infant industry. An infant industry is a new industry yet to be past it's developmental stage and which cannot be compete yet with other established industries.

Calloway Company recorded a right-of-use asset of $790,000 in a 10-year finance lease. The interest rate charged by the lessor was 10%. The balance in the right-of-use asset after two years will be:
Answer:
$632,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of balance in the right of use asset after two years is shown below:
Balance in right of use asset after 2 years is
= Recorded value - ((Recorded value × rate of interest) × number of years)
= $790,000 - (($790,000 × 10%) × 2)
= $790,000 - ($79,000 × 2)
= $790,000 - $158,000
= $632,000
hence, the balance is $632,000
Robert G. Flanders Jr., the state-appointed receiver for Central Falls, RI, said his city's declaration of bankruptcy had proved invaluable in helping it cut costs. Before the city declared bankruptcy, he said, he had found it impossible to wring meaningful concessions out of the city's unions and retirees, who were being asked to give up roughly half of the pensions they had earned as the city ran out of cash.
True or False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Missing question: The ability to declare bankruptcy increased the disagreement value of the city during negotiation with the unions
Alternatives available to an agreement determine the terms of an agreement. If bankruptcy is been declared in a situation where the cities can manipulate and evade much of their pension obligations owed to unions, such scenarios gives the city a much better alternative, if the favorable agreement with the city's unions and retirees emerge.
At the end of 2020, Payne Industries had a deferred tax asset account with a balance of $25 million attributable to a temporary book-tax difference of $100 million in a liability for estimated expenses.

g you are eligible for a 30 year fixed rate home mortgage with 3.6% interest rate what is the maximum loan you can get
Answer:
the maximum loan is $379,417
Explanation:
The computation of the maximum loan is shown below:
As we know that
Maximum Loan = Present Value of all monthly Payments
= $1,725 × PVAF(0.3%,360 months)
= $1,725 × [1- (1+0.003)^-360] ÷ 0.003
= $1,725 × 219.9517
= $379,417
hence, the maximum loan is $379,417
Here the interest rate is divided by 12 and the months should be multiplied by 12 as this is the case of monthly basis

Explanation:
Which section of a CAR Residential Purchase Agreement is a provision divided into three sections: mediation, arbitration of disputes, and additional terms?
Answer: Appraisal contingency and Removal.
Explanation:
The appraisal contingency, is a kind of CAR residential purchase agreement, which allows a buyer to back out of the deal if the house appraises for less than the already agreed-upon value. and the loan contingency, this term lets the buyer back out if he/she can't get their loan approved for the said purposes.
The section of a car residential purchase agreement that separates it into three sections would be:
Section 9C
The section titled 9C functions to separate the property purchase provisions into three varied divisions. These divisions include mediation followed by arbitration of disputes, and the external terms that fulfill the remaining ones.The other options are present in order to fulfill if either of them fails to resolve the dispute.Thus, "section 9C" is the correct answer.

On January 1, 2021, Taco King leased retail space from Fogelman Properties. The 10-year finance lease requires quarterly variable lease payments equal to 3% of Taco King's sales revenue, with a quarterly sales minimum of $600,000. Payments at the beginning of each quarter are based on previous quarter sales. During the previous 5-year period, Taco King has generated quarterly sales of over $750,000. Fogelman's interest rate, known by Taco King, was 4%. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
Required:
1. Prepare the journal entries for Taco King at the beginning of the lease at January 1, 2021.
2. Prepare the journal entries for Taco King at April 1, 2021. First quarter sales were $760,000. Amortization is recorded quarterly.
Answer:
Jan 1st, 2021 entry:
Equipment 746,168 debit
Lease Liability 723,668 credit
Cash 22,500 credit
April 1st, 2021 entry:
Interest expense 7,537 debit
Lease Liability 15,263 debit
Cash 22,800 credit
Explanation:
We will assume a 750,000 sales revenue per quarter. As this was their historical and expected value:
750,000 x 3% = 22,500 per quarter
Now, we solve for the present value of the lease payment:
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate}(1+r) = PV\\[/tex]
C 22,500
time 40 (10 years x 4 quarter per year)
rate 0.01 (4% annual / 4 quarters)
[tex]22500 \times \frac{1-(1+0.01)^{-40} }{0.01}(1+0.01) = PV\\[/tex]
PV $746,168.2419
we subtract the first payment of 22,500
lease liability reocrded in the enrty: 723.668
As lease sales were 760,000
lease payment: 760,000 x 3% = 22,800
less expected of 22,500 = 300 additional interest expense
interest expense: 723,668 x 0.01 = 7,237 + 300 = 7,537
amortization on lease liability: 22,800 -7,537 = 15,263

Julie Brown is a single woman in her late 20s. She is renting an apartment in the fashionable part of town for $1,000 a month. After much thought, she's seriously considering buying a condominium for $175,000. She intends to put 20 percent down and expects that closing costs will amount to another $5,000; a commercial bank has agreed to lend her money at the fixed rate of 6 percent on a 15-year mortgage. Julie would have to pay an annual condominium owner's insurance premium of $560 and property taxes of $1,000 a year (she's now paying renter's insurance of $550 per year). In addition, she estimates that annual maintenance expenses will be about 0.5 percent of the price of the condo (which includes a $30 monthly fee to the property owners' association). Julie's income puts her in the 25 percent tax bracket (she itemizes her deductions on her tax returns), and she earns an after-tax rate of return on her investments of around 4 percent.
Required:
a. Evaluate and compare Julie’s alternatives of remaining in the apartment or purchasing the condo.
b. Working with a friend who is a realtor, Julie has learned that condos like the one that she’s thinking of buying are appreciating in value at the rate of 3.5 percent a year and are expected to continue doing so. Would such information affect the rent-or-buy decision made in a?
c. Discuss any other factors that should be considered when making a rent-or-buy decision.
d. Which alternative would you recommend for Julie in light of your analysis?
Answer:
a. Julie should continue live in her own apartment.
b. She should then purchase the condo
c. Home maintenance cost and tax benefit.
d. She should live in her own apartment and rent the condo after purchase.
Explanation:
Buying cost of condo $175,000
Loan interest amount $8,400 [ $175,000 * 80% * 6%]
Insurance premium $10 [560 - 550]
Property taxes $1,000
Maintenance expense $875 [$175,000 * 0.5%]
Total additional cost per year $10,280
If Julie plans to buy the condo she will have to incur additional cost of $10,280 per annum.
b. If the price of condo increases by 3.5% per year then she should consider buying the condo.
Deal Leasing leased equipment to Hand Company on January 1, 2021. The leased equipment's book value is $420,000 with no estimated residual value at the end of its useful life. The remaining useful life of the leased equipment is 15 years. The lease payments were calculated to provide the lessor a 10% return. Ten annual lease payments of $60,000 are due at the beginning of each year beginning January 1, 2021. Both companies use the straight-line method in depreciation/amortization their assets.
Answer:
The requirements are missing, so I looked for a similar question. This is a financial lease since the PV of the lease payments represents 97% of the asset's value.
January 1, 2021, equipment leased from Deal leasing
Dr Right of use asset 405,541.20
Cr Lease liability 405,541.20
the right of use asset = PV of lease payments = $60,000 x 6.75902 (PV annuity due, 10%, 10 periods) = $405,541.20
January 1, 2021, first lease payment
Dr Lease liability 60,000
Cr Cash 60,000
December 31, 2021, depreciation expense on leased asset
Dr Depreciation expense 40,554.12
Cr Accumulated depreciation 40,554.12
depreciation expense = $405,541.20 / 10 = $40,554.12
December 31, 2021, interest expense on asset lease
Dr Interest expense 34,554.12
Cr Interest payable 34,554.12
interest expense = ($405,541.20 - $60,000) x 10% = $34,554.12
f Europe has a real GDP growth rate of 5%, and the United States has a real GDP growth rate of 6%, while money growth in Europe is 7%, and money growth in the United States is 5%, what would the monetary exchange rate model predict for exchange rates in the long run
Answer:
the dollar will appreciate by 3% against the euro
Explanation:
long run change in the exchange rate = (growth rate money supply Europe - growth rate money supply US) - (growth rate real GDP Europe - growth rate real GDP US) = (7% - 5%) - (5% - 6%) = 2% - (-1%) = 2% + 1% = 3%
This is a very simplistic approach to the monetary exchange rate model, but since we are given only this information, it's all that we can use.

Marketing by the Numbers: Pricey Sheets
Many luxury sheets cost less than $200 to make but sell for more than $500 in retail stores. Some cost even more consumers pay almost $3,000 for Frett'e "Tangeri Pizzo king-size luxury linens. The creators of a new brand of luxury linens, called Boll & Branch, have entered this market and are determining the price at which to sell their sheets directly to consumers online. They want to price their sheets lower than most brands but still want to earn an adequate margin on sales. The sheets come in a luxurious box that can be reused to store lingerie, jewelry, or other keepsakes. The Boll & Branch brand touts fair trade practices when sourcing its high-grade long staple organic cotton from India. Given the cost information below, refer to Appendix 2: Marketing by the Numbers to answer the following questions.
Cost/King-size Set
Raw Cotton $28.00
Spinning/Weaving/Dyeing $12,00
Cut/Sew/Finishing $10,00
Material Transportation $3,00
Factory Fee $16,00
Inspection and Import Fees $14,00
Ocean Freight/Insurance $5,00

10-13 Given the cost per king-size sheet set above, and assuming the manufacturer has total fixed costs of $500,000 and estimates first year sales will be 50,000 sets, determine the price to consumers if the company desires a 40 percent margin on sales.
10-14 If the company decides to sell through retailers instead of directly to consumers online, to maintain the consumer price you calculated in the previous question, at what price must it sell the product to a wholesaler who then sells it to retailers? Assume wholesalers desire a 10 percent margin and retailers get a 20 percent margin, both based on their respective selling prices.
Answer:
10-13 Given the cost per king-size sheet set above, and assuming the manufacturer has total fixed costs of $500,000 and estimates first year sales will be 50,000 sets, determine the price to consumers if the company desires a 40 percent margin on sales.
variable cost per unit = 28 + 12 + 10 + 3 + 16 + 14 + 5 + 8 + 15 + 30 + 15 = $156
average fixed cost per unit = $500,000 / 50,000 units = $10
total cost per unit = $166
desired profit margin = 40%, so total costs must be 60% of selling price
selling price = $166 / 60% = $276.67 ≈ $277 per unit
10-14 If the company decides to sell through retailers instead of directly to consumers online, to maintain the consumer price you calculated in the previous question, at what price must it sell the product to a wholesaler who then sells it to retailers? Assume wholesalers desire a 10 percent margin and retailers get a 20 percent margin, both based on their respective selling prices.
retailers' margin = $277 x 20% = $55.40
selling price to retailers = $277 - $55.40 = $221.60
wholesalers' margin = $221.60 x 10% = $22.16
selling price to wholesalers = $221.60 - $22.16 = $199.44 per unit
The Titanic Shipbuilding Company has a noncancelable contract to build a small cargo vessel. Construction involves a cash outlay of $273,000 at the end of each of the next two years. At the end of the third year the company will receive payment of $650,000. Assume the IRR of this option exceeds the cost of capital. The company can speed up construction by working an extra shift. In this case there will be a cash outlay of $595,000 at the end of the first year followed by a cash payment of $650,000 at the end of the second year. Use the IRR rule to show the (approximate) range of opportunity costs of capital at which the company should work the extra shift.
The company should work the extra shift if the cost of capital is between ___________ % and ___________ %
Answer:
19% to 19.7%
Explanation:
Cost of capital is the firm cost of sources of financing. It includes debt, equity and all other sources of finance with keeping the track of their required rate of return. The cost of capital is the expected return which is required by the lenders of fund.
Consider the experiments. Experiment 1: A study is done to determine which of two fuel mixtures allows a rocket to travel farther over a period of time. Rocket A, which requires additional equipment to keep it stable, is used to test one fuel mixture, and rocket B is used to test the other. Both rockets are identical aside from their mass. The results indicate that rocket B traveled farther than rocket A over the same period of time. Experiment 2: A double-blind experiment is performed to test whether a new drug is effective in lowering blood pressure. A random sample of subjects with high blood pressure is assigned to two groups. One group receives the new drug and the other group does not. Neither group is permitted to take any other medications during the experiment or to change their lifestyles in any way. The results of the experiment show that the drug is effective in lowering blood pressure.
Identify the experiment in which confounding occurs and the reason for its occurrence.
a. Neither experiment has a confounding variable.
b. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the fuel mixtures. Varying the fuel mixture could skew the results of the study and should be kept constant.
c. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the type of experiment. A double-blind experiment may increase the risk of the placebo effect and possibly skew the results.
d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.
e. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the subjects used. Choosing a sample of subjects with high blood pressure instead of individuals with different blood pressure levels may confuse the results.
Answer:
d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.
Explanation:
Both experiments have confounding variables. But the reasons given for the occurrence of the confounder in experiment 2 do not justify (c) and (e) as correct answers. By definition, confounders are factors other than the independent variable that cause differences in outcome. For experiment 1, the different masses of the two rockets affect the independent variable (fuel mixture) being studied, and actually cause the discrepancy in the distance traveled as indicated in answer (d). Other examples of confounders are placebo, weather, age, and experimenter bias which a double-blind can eliminate.

• What are the advantages and disadvantages of owning versus outsourcing for each of these components (staff, computer servers, software licensing, and data storage)?
Answer:
Explanation below
Explanation:
Outsourcing simply involves the act of contracting our certain business activities and processes to third-party providers.
Staff
When you outsource your staff, you can be able to save cots and use the freed capital for other things but the disadvantage would certainly be around the issue of confidentiality of business information.
When you outsource computer servers, software licensing, and data storage, you would gain access to world-class capabilities because the third-party providers would likely provide them to meet their customers.
There would also be shared risks as part of the benefits. The disadvantages could include loss of control. People who discourage outsourcing of these functions are of the opinion that third-party vendor cannot be able to match the level of responsiveness and levels of services that could be offered by an in-house team

Among advanced economies, the three-month moving average of the CAI has been particularly strong in the Euro area and Sweden (around 2pp above their post-crisis average), Japan (1.3pp) and the US (1.1pp). A number of EM economies have recently outpaced their post-crisis average, although growth is likely still below potential in a number of emerging economies.
Answer:
The third sentence.
Explanation:
The third sentence contains the central idea of the passage/paragraph.
- A number of DM (Developed Market) economies have recently outpaced their post-crisis average, although growth is likely still below potential in a number of EM (Emerging Market) economies.
The first sentence somewhat defines "strength in global economic growth". The second sentence gives statistics, particularly on the quality of growth in advanced economies (DM economies).
The third sentence summarizes both points and clarifies that potential for growth is still existent in emerging economies.
Wholemark is an Internet order business that sells one popular New Year greeting card once a year. The cost of the paper on which the card is printed is $0.40 per card, and the cost of printing is $0.10 per card. The company receives $3.75 per card sold. Since the cards have the current year printed on them, unsold cards have no salvage value. Their customers are from the four areas: Los Angeles, Santa Monica, Hollywood, and Pasadena. Based on past data, the number of customers from each of the four regions is normally distributed with mean 2,300 and standard deviation 200. (Assume these four are independent.)
What is the optimal production quantity for the card?
Answer:
9644
Explanation:
cost of paper on which a card is printed = $0.40 per card
cost of printing = $0.10 per card
profit made per card sold = $3.75
number of areas where customers are located (n)= 4
mean of customers from each region = 2300
standard deviation for each region = 200
note : each region is independent
The optimal production quantity for the card can be calculated going through these steps
first we determine
the cost of card = $0.10 + $0.40 = $0.50
selling value = $3.75
salvage value = 0
next we calculate for the z value
= ( selling value - cost of card) / ( selling price - salvage value )
= ( 3.75 - 0.50 ) / 3.75 = 0.8667
Z( 0.8667 ) = 1.110926 ( using excel formula : NORMSINV ( 0.8667 )
next we calculate
u = n * mean demand
= 4 * 2300 = 9200
б = [tex]200\sqrt{n}[/tex] = 200 * 2
= 400
Hence optimal production quantity for the card
= u + Z (0.8667 ) * б
= 9200 + 1.110926 * 400
= 9644.3704
≈ 9644

Answer:
Growing the country's economy Aiding in the creation of capital formation Managing and mitigating the risksExplanation:
The Financial system is very important because it helps grow the economy of the country. They do this by creating capital when they transfer funds from those who have it (savers) to those who need it (borrowers). These borrowers will then use it to invest in projects that will grow the economy.
The Financial system also works to manage and mitigate risk because they have experience in such areas and are able to discern which projects to go after to avoid or properly manage risk.
Managers must be able to determine whether their workers are doing an effective and efficient job, with a minimum of errors and disruptions. They do so by using a performance appraisal, an evaluation that measures employee performance against established standards in order to make decisions about promotions, compensation, training, or termination. Managing effectively means getting results through top performance. That's what performance appraisals at all levels of the organization are for—including at the top, where managers benefit from review by their subordinates. In the 360-degree review, management gathers opinions from all around the employee, including those under, above, and on the same level, to get an accurate, comprehensive idea of the worker's abilities.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
This system of performance review is a 360-degree review or feedback process where a given employee receives inputs on her performance (or other criteria such as behaviors, competencies and results achieved) from different employees with varying working relationships and at different levels. The idea is to ensure that the employee's performance is not partial or biased. Using this system, the employee who may be a manager will have her performance reviewed by employees below, above, and on the same level with her.

Answer:
a. Current Ratio = current assets / current liabilities = 190,000 / 153,000 = 1.24
b. Acid-test ratio = (current assets - inventory) / current liabilities = (190,000 - 50,000) / 153,000 = 0.92
c. Times interest earned = EBIT / interest expense = 65,000 / 8,000 = 8.13
d. Inventory turnover = COGS / inventory = 90,000 / 50,000 = 1.8
e. Total asset turnover = net sales / total assets = 210,000 / 525,000 = 0.4
f. Operating profit margin = operating income / total sales = 65,000 / 210,000 = 0.31
g. Days in receivables = (accounts receivables / total sales) x 365 = (30,000 / 210,000) x 365 = 52.14 days
h. Operating return on assets = operating income / total assets = 65,000 / 525,000 = 0.12
i. Debt ratio = total liabilities / total assets = 273,000 / 525,000 = 0.52
j. Fixed asset turnover = total sales / fixed assets = 210,000 / 335,000 = 0.63
k. Return on equity = net income / total equity = 45,030 / 252,000 = 0.18

essays on art or literature biographies memoirs journalism historical scientific technical economic writingConsider a multifactor model with two factors. A well-diversified portfolio (Portfolio P) has a beta of 0.75 on factor 1 and a beta of 1.25 on factor 2. The risk premiums on the factor 1 and factor 2 are 1% and 7%, respectively. The risk-free rate of return is 7%. What is the expected return on portfolio P, according to a two-factor model
Answer: 16.5%
Explanation:
Expected Return on portfolio P will be calculated as:
= Rf + (Beta1 × F1) + (Beta2 × F2)
where,
Rf = Risk Free rate
F1 = risk premium on Factor1
F2 = risk premium on Factor2
Expected Return will now be:
= 7% + (0.75 × 1%) + (1.25 × 7%)
= 7% + 0.75% + 8.75%
= 16.5%
The expected return on portfolio P, according to a two-factor model will be 16.5%.
Answer:
16.5%
Explanation:
A multi-factor model can be used to explain either an individual security or a portfolio of securities. It does so by comparing two or more factors to analyze relationships between variables and the resulting performance.
DATA
Risk Free rate = Rf = 7%
risk premium on Factor1 = F1 = 1%
Beta (Factor 1) = 1.25
risk premium on Factor2 = F2 = 7%
Beta (Factor 1) = 2
Expected Return = Rf + (Beta1 x F1) + (Beta2 * F2)
Expected Return = 7% + (0.75 x 1%) + (1.25 x 7%)
Expected Return = 0.07 + 0.0075 + 0.0875
Expected Return = 0.165 or 16.5%
