Answer: Liability Gains & Losses
Explanation:
The Projected Benefit Obligation refers to the present value of the amount that a company owes its employees as pension if its employees retire with the company so this is a liability to the company.
If this PBO is to change therefore and actuarial gains or losses are recorded from this change, they would affect the liabilities of the company and would therefore have to be referred to as liability gains and losses.
Dev is a strategist for the firm Stark Industries, which produces high-quality HD movie cameras. This company needs a specific material for a new camera they are developing, which is manufactured in large quantities by a competitor called LENS Inc. However, this material is difficult to trade. Because of this, which of the following is most likely the best strategy for Dev to suggest?
A. Stark industries should acquire LENS
B. Stark industries should enter into co-opetition with LENS
C. Stark industries should form a long term agreement with LENS
D. Stark industries should form a short term agreement with LENS
Answer: A. Stark industries should acquire LENS
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the best strategy that Dev should suggest is that Stark industries should acquire LENS.
Since Stark Industries require the material from LENS and it's difficult to trade, the best option is to acquire it. The acquisition will make the production of the high-quality HD movie cameras easier.
It should be noted that entering into a competition with LENS is not advisable as that'll lead to the material not gotten. Also, a short or long term agreement isn't advisable as well.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
Castille Corp. purchases, for $600,000, land upon which a building and a dilapidated shed are situated. Castille plans to use the building as-is for operations but immediately razes the shed at a cost of $5,000 minus scrap recovery of $1,000. A recent tax appraisal of the property allocated $100,000 to the land and $400,000 to the building. In the entry to record the acquisition of the property, at what amount will Castille debit Land
Answer:
$120,800
Explanation:
Give that;
Cost of land = $600,000
Associated expenses :
Razing down the shed = $5,000
Income from scrap = $1,000
Total expenses = $4,000
The total cost of the land would be;
Total cost of land = Cost of land + Total expense
= $600,000 + $4,000
= $604,000
Tax allocation: land and building = $500,000
Land allocation will now be
= 100,000/500,000 × $604,000
= 0.2 × $604,000
= $120,800

Bonaime, Inc., has 7.7 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $62.70, and the book value per share is $5.70. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $71.7 million, a coupon rate of 7.2 percent, and sells for 89.5 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $36.7 million, a coupon rate of 8.2 percent, and sells for 88.5 percent of par. The first issue matures in 22 years, the second in 14 years. The most recent dividend was $3.70 and the dividend growth rate is 8 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 30 percent.

What is the company’s WACC? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
WACC
Answer:
Bonaime, Inc.
1. The company's cost of equity = 5.90%
2. The company's after-tax cost of debt = 5.92%
3. The company's equity weight = 83.32%
4. The company's debt weight = 16.68%
5. The company's WACC = 5.9035%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Common stock outstanding = 7.7 million shares
Current share price = $62.70
Book value per share = $5.70
Most recent dividend per share = $3.70
1. Cost of equity = Dividend/Current share price = $3.70/$62.70 = 5.90%
Value:
Book value = 7.7 million * $5.70 = $43,890,000
Market value = 7.7 million * $62,70 = $482,790,000
Bonds outstanding: First Bonds Second Bonds Total
Face value = $71,700,000 $36,700,000 $108,400,000
Coupon rate 7.2% 8.2%
Annual coupon payment $5,162,400 $3,009,400 $8,171,800
Market value per bond 89.5% 88.5%
Market value of bonds $64,171,500 $32,479,500 $96,651,000
Before tax cost of debt = $8,171,800/$96,651,000 = 0.08455
2. After tax cost of debt = 5.92% (0.08455 * (1 - 0.30))
3. The company's equity weight = Equity Market Value/Total Firm's Value
= $482,790,000/$579,441,000
= 83.32%
4. The company's debt weight = 1 - 0.8332
= 16.68%
5. The company's WACC = Cost of equity * Weight + Cost of Debt * Weight
= (5.90% * 83.32%) + (5.92% * 16.68%)
= (0.0590 * 0.8332) + (0.0592 * 0.1668)
= 0.04916 + 0.009875
= 0.059035
= 5.9035%
b) The costs of equity and debts are based on their market values instead of the book value. The market values are always more relevant in capital decision-making than the book values.

Determine the temporary difference between the book value of depreciable assets and the tax basis of these assets at the end of 2019 and 2020.
Answer:
2019 $8,000
2020 $19,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the temporary difference between the book value of depreciable assets and the tax basis of these assets at the end of 2019 and 2020.
Calculation for 2019 Temporary differences
2019
Using this formula
2019 Temporary differences = 2019 Depreciation- 2019 depreciation expense
Let plug in the formula
2019 Temporary differences =$32,000 - $24,000
2019 Temporary differences= $8,000
Calculation for 2020 Temporary differences
Using this formula
2020 Temporary differences=(2019 Depreciation+2020 Depreciation)-( 2019 Depreciation expense+2020 Depreciation expense)
Let plug in the formula
2020 Temporary differences= ($32,000 + $37,000) - ($24,000 + $26,000)
2020 Temporary differences=$69,000-$50,000
2020 Temporary differences= $19,000
Therefore the temporary difference between the book value of depreciable assets and the tax basis of these assets at the end of 2019 and 2020 will be $8,000 and $19,000

Bing Corporation acquired two inventory items at a lump-sum cost of $120,000. The acquisition included 3,000 units of product LF, and 7,000 units of product 1B. LF normally sells for $30 per unit, and 1B for $10 per unit. If Bing sells 1,000 units of LF, what amount of gross profit should it recognize
Answer: $7,500
Explanation:
3,000 units of LF normally costs:
= 3,000 * 30
= $90,000
7,000 units of 1B normally costs:
= 7,000 * 10
= $70,000
Together they cost:
= 90,000 + 70,000
= $160,000
Use this to calculate the proportional cost of LF from the lump sum:
= 90,000 / 160,000 * 120,000
= $67,500
Cost per unit of LF purchased at lump sum cost:
= 67,500 / 3,000 units
= $22.50
Gross profit:
= (Selling price - Cost per unit) * 1,000 units
= (30 - 22.50) * 1,000
= $7,500
Which work trait do most employers look for in a perspective employee? (Hint: it deals with time)
Answer:
time management
Explanation:
Based on my experiences, I believe that the best trait that employers look for in these employees would be time management. In other words, an employee is able to divide their time between various tasks and responsibilities as efficiently as possible. Every employee will have more than one responsibility and if they are able to accomplish all of them efficiently by organizing their schedule and putting all their focus into each task, it ultimately saves the company a huge amount of money and generates more profits because things are getting done.

Rover Corporation purchased a truck at the beginning of 2017 for $109,200. The truck is estimated to have a salvage value of $4,200 and a useful life of 120,000 miles. It was driven 21,000 miles in 2017 and 29,000 miles in 2018. What is the depreciation expense for 2018
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $25,375
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $109,200
Salvage value= $4,200
Useful life in miles= 120,000
To calculate the depreciation expense, we need to use the units-of-activity method:
Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in miles]*miles operated
2018:
Annual depreciation= [(109,200 - 4,200) / 120,000]*29,000
Annual depreciation= 0.875*29,000
Annual depreciation= $25,375
