Answer:
The answer is: application of matching principle and contra-asset
Explanation:
The allowance for doubtful accounts is a management estimate of bad debts (amount owed by the customers that is deemed uncollectible). In order to demonstrate the recoverable amount of the accounts receivable, it is usually applied as a reduction in the asset (accounts receivable) by applying contra asset (that is, a way of netting the two accounts).
The estimate of bad debt is in conformity with the matching principle of accounting. The principle states that the revenue generated in a particular accounting period must be matched against the expense for that particular period. In this instance, the the bad debt expense is the expense.
The overall economic performance of developing countries is expected to outpace that of the United States over the coming years. A customer that wishes to profit from this should receive which recommendation and accompanying risk disclosures?
A.
The customer should be recommended a special situations fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume regulatory risk and market risk
B.
The customer should be recommended a specialty fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume credit risk and extension risk
C.
The customer should be recommended an emerging markets fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume political risk and exchange rate risk
D.
The customer should be recommended a sector fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume unsystematic risk and market risk
Answer: C. The customer should be recommended an emerging markets fund, as long as the customer is willing to assume political risk and exchange rate risk
Explanation:
In order to take advantage of the opportunity that presents itself from developing countries outpacing that of the US in years to come, the customer should invest in an Emerging Markets fund. This fund invests in securities from the more rapidly developing countries like China and Brazil so the customer will be poised to take advantage of the opportunities offered by this.
However, they should be wary of Exchange rate risks as their currencies are not as strong as the US dollar and can be unstable.
They also need to worry about political instability as quite a lot of developing countries do not have strong democracies and Economic decisions are influenced by political decisions a bit too much.
Home Depot entered fiscal 2014 with a total capitalization of $27,213 million. In 2014, debt investors received interest income of $830 million. Net income to shareholders was $6,345 million. (Assume a tax rate of 35%.) Calculate the economic value added assuming its cost of capital is 10%.
Answer:
Economic value added=$4,163.20
Explanation:
Calculatation for the economic value added assuming its cost of capital is 10 percent
The first step is to find the After-tax operating income using this formula
After-tax operating income = (1 - tax rate) * Interest expense + Net income
Where,
Tax rate=35%
Interest expense =$830
Net income=$6,345
Let plug in the formula
After-tax operating income=(1 - .35) *$830 + $6,345
After-tax operating income=0.65*$830×$6,345
After-tax operating income= $539.50+$6,345
After-tax operating income=$6,884.50
The next step is to find the Economic value added using this formula
Economic value added= Ater-tax operating income - (Cost of capital * Total capitalization)
Where,
Ater-tax operating income =$6,884.50
Cost of capital =10%
Total capitalization=$27,213
Let plug in the formula
Economic value added=$6,884.50 - (.10 * $27,213)
Economic value added=$6,884.50-$2,721.3
Economic value added=$4,163.20
Therefore the Economic value added assuming its cost of capital is 10% will be $4,163.20
One of your customers has just made a purchase in the amount of $23,200. You have agreed to payments of $445 per month and will charge a monthly interest rate of 1.26 percent. How many months will it take for the account to be paid off?
Answer:
85.43 months
Explanation:
Purchase = $23,200
Payment per month = $445
Interest rate = 1.26%
Therefore the solution is:
$23,200 = $445[(1 − 1/1.0126^t) / .0126]
t = 85.43 months
The previous value of a portfolio that must be regained before a hedge fund can charge their investors performance fees is known as a
Answer:
high watermark
Explanation:
A high watermark refers to the mark at which the investment could be reached at a high peak. It to be calculated on that date when the performance fees are charged and it could be charged only on that case when there is a rise in the value of the portfolio
Moreover, in the high watermarks there is no need to pay the performance based fee when there is a poor performance
Therefore the given situation represent the high watermark
There are several bridges along highway 280 which are free to ride on. This bridge was built and is being maintained by the government... not the "free" market. Let's think about why that is the case... The economic logic of government ownership and having a marginal price of 0 (that is, it is free to cross the bridge) is:
Answer:
The bridge 's owner has a natural monopoly, and the marginal production cost (letting another car drive through it) is close to nil.
Explanation:
Since building several bridges to compete is inefficient, but building one bridge at a lower average cost to customers would be effective. If the private monopolist builds the bridge it can charge customers exceptionally high prices.
There is a high fixed cost involved with constructing a bridge. Hence constructing a bridge is a mere privilege. Furthermore, there is no extra cost to allow another car to cross the bridge. It means that the marginal cost is zero or closer.
A company incurs $2,700,000 of overhead each year in three departments: Ordering and Receiving, Mixing,?
and Testing. The company prepares 2,000 purchase orders, works 50,000 mixing hours, and performs 1,500 tests per year in producing 200,000 drums of Goo and 600,000 drums of Slime. The following data are available:
Department Expected use of Driver Cost
Ordering and Receiving 2,000 $800,000
Mixing 50,000 1,000,000
Testing 1,500 900,000
Production information for Slime is as follows:
Expected use of Driver
Ordering and Receiving 1,600
Mixing 30,000
Testing 1,000
Compute the amount of overhead assigned to Slime.
a) $1,350,000
b) $2,025,000
c) $1,645,234d) $1,840,000
Answer:
Total allocated overhead= $1,840,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Department Expected use of Driver Cost
Ordering and Receiving 2,000 $800,000
Mixing 50,000 1,000,000
Testing 1,500 900,000
Production information for Slime is as follows:
Expected use of Driver
Ordering and Receiving 1,600
Mixing 30,000
Testing 1,000
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each activity:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Ordering and Receiving= 800,000/2,000= $400 per order
Mixing= 1,000,000/50,000= $20 per mixing hour
Testing= 900,000/1,500 = $600 per test
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Ordering and Receiving= 400*1,600= 640,000
Mixing=20*30,000= 600,000
Testing= 600*1,000= 600,000
Total allocated overhead= $1,840,000
DSO and accounts receivable Ingraham Inc. currently has $205,000 in accounts receivable, and its days sales outstanding is 71 days. It wants to reduce its DSO to 20 days by pressuring more of its customers to pay their bills on time. If this policy is adopted, the company's average sales will fall by 15%. What will be the level of accounts receivable following the change? Assume a 365- day year.
Answer:
$49,084.51
Explanation:
days of sales outstanding (DSO) = accounts receivable / average daily sales
71 days = $205,000 / (total sales / 365 days)
total sales / 365 days = $205,000 / 71 days
total sales = ($205,000 / 71 days) x 365 days = $1,053,873.24
after the change, annual sales will decrease by 15%:
$1,053,873.24 x (1 - 15%) = $895,792.25
average sales per day = $895,792.25 / 365 = $2,454.23 per day
new DSO = accounts receivable / average sales per day
20 days = accounts receivable / $2,454.23 per day
accounts receivable = $2,454.23 per day x 20 days = $49,084.51
Common stock $10 par value 20,000 shares authorized and 10,000 shares issued, 9,000 shares outstanding $100,000 Paid-in capital in excess of par value, common stock 50,000 Retained earnings 25,000 Treasury stock 11,500 Assuming the treasury shares were all purchased at the same price, the cost per share of the treasury stock is:
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
The following data has been collected about Keller Company's stockholders' equity accounts: Common stock $10 par value 20,000 shares authorized and 10,000 shares issued, 9,000 shares outstanding $100,000 Paid-in capital in excess of par value, common stock 50,000 Retained earnings 25,000 Treasury stock 11,500 Assuming the treasury shares were all purchased at the same price, the cost per share of the treasury stock is:______
Answer:
$11.5
Explanation:
The data that was gotten from Keller company stockholders equity account include:
Amount shares in common stock is 20,000 shares
The number of issued shares is 10,000
Number of outstanding shares is 9,000
The excess paid-in capital is $100,000
The common stock is 50,000
The retained earnings is 25,000
Treasury stock is 11,500
The first step is to calculate the amount of shares that was acquired in the treasury stock
= Number of issued shares-number of outstanding shares
= 10,000-9,000
= 1,000
Therefore, the cost per share of the stock in the treasury can be calculated as follows
= Treasury stock value/amount of shares acquired
= 11,500/1,000
= 11.5
Hence the cost per share of the treasury stock is $11.5

Celia Inc. has two types of handbags: Standard and custom. The Controller has decided to use a plant-wide overhead rate based on direct labor costs. The president has heard of activity-based costing and wants to see how the results would differ if this system were used Two activity cost pools were developed: Machining and Machine set-up. Presented below is information related to the company's operations
Standard Custom
Direct Labor cost 60,000 $ 12,000
Machine Hours 1,500 1,500
Set-up Hours 100 500
Total estimated overhead cost are $342,000. Overhead cost allocated to the machining activity cost pool is $222,000 and $120,000 is allocated to the machine set-up activity cost pool
1. Calculate overhead allocated to each product using the traditional (Plant-wide) approach
2. Calculate overhead allocated to each product using the activity based costing approach
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard Custom
Direct Labor cost 60,000 $ 12,000
Machine Hours 1,500 1,500
Set-up Hours 100 500
The total estimated overhead costs are $342,000.
A. First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Total direct labor cost= $72,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 342,000/72,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $4.75 per direct labor dollar
Standard= 4.75*60,000= $285,000
Custom= 4.75*12,000= $57,000
B. Now, we need to calculate a predetermined overhead rate for each activity:
Machining:
Total machine-hours= 3,000
Total overhead= 222,000
predetermined overhead rate= 222,000/3,000
predetermined overhead rate= $74 per machine-hour
Setup:
Total set-up hours= 600
Total overhead= 120,000
predetermined overhead rate= 120,000/600
predetermined overhead rate= $200 per set up-hour
Standard= 74*1,500 + 200*100= $131,000
Custom= 74*1,500 + 200*500= $211,000
Suppose that a baseball player eligible for free agent status signs a contract with a new team that promises to pay him $100,000 more than his current team for each of the next three years. Assuming the discount rate is 6 percent, what is the maximum the current costs of moving could be and still have this investment be worthwhile?
Answer:
Maximum current cost = $267,301.19
Explanation:
The maximum current costs of his moving would be worth of the $100,000 annuity in today's dollars, that is the present value.
The present value of the annuity would be determined as follows:
PV = A × (1- (1+r)^(-n) )/ r
Annual cash flow, n- number of years, r-rate of interest
A- 100,000, r- 6%, n- 3
PV - 100,000 × (1- 1.06^(-3))/0.06
PV = $ 267,301.19
Maximum current cost = $267,301.19
The rate established prior to the beginning of a period that uses estimated overhead and an allocation factor such as estimated direct labor, and that is used to assign overhead cost to jobs, is the:
Answer:
This is the Predetermined overhead rate
Explanation:
The predetermined overhead rate assigns a particular amount of manufacturing overhead to each direct labor or machine hour. This helps businesses allocate resources and also set pricing. This computation is usually done at the beginning of each period.
To calculate this, we divide the estimate of the manufacturing overhead cost total by the estimated number of machine hours. It is used to assign overhead cost to jobs.

Which of the following are restrictive covenants often used to protect the firm’s bond value and bondholder wealth? Check all that apply. Provisions that require firing the firm’s CEO whenever the firm’s bond price decreases by more than 15% Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels Provisions that require issuing new debt securities whenever interest rates drop below 5%
Answer:
1. Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels.
2. Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels.
Explanation:
A bond refers to a fixed income instrument that signifies the indebtedness of the borrower to the bond issuer (investor or creditor). Basically, they are loans that are given to government or large corporations.
This simply means that, when a bondholder or creditor purchases a bond, an agreed amount of money is being borrowed to the bond issuer as a loan. As a result of the loan being borrowed, the bond issuer is required to pay an interest with a return of principal at maturity to the bondholder (investor or creditor).
A bond covenant can be defined as a standard and legally binding agreement between an investor or creditor (bondholder) and the issuer of a bond (bond issuer) in order to protect their respective interests. The bond covenant is classified into two (2) categories;
1. Positive or affirmative covenants: which states certain requirements that must be met by the bond issuer.
2. Negative or restrictive covenants: which states certain actions that are forbidden to the bond issuer.
The following are restrictive covenants often used to protect the firm’s bond value and bondholder wealth;
1. Provisions that prohibit reducing the firm’s liquidity ratio below specified levels.
2. Provisions that prohibit the borrower from increasing debt ratios above specified levels.
The restrictive covenants are written directly in the trust indenture or bond deed. Also note, the more the restrictive covenants that exists in a bond, the lower its interest rate because it makes the bond appear safer.
Classify the following markets as perfectly competitive, monopolistic, or monopolistically competitive, and explain your answers.
Wooden no. 2 pencils
Copper (hint: there are many sellers)
Local public utilities (ex. water, electricity)
Peanut butter
Lipstick
Answer:
Wooden no. 2 pencils
Perfectly competitive market because there are many buyers and suppliers of pencils. Also, wooden no. 2 pencils are basically identical no matter which brand you purchase.Copper (hint: there are many sellers)
Copper is considered a commodity which has many suppliers and consumers around the world, therefore, it is classified as a perfectly competitive market. No individual supplier, nor any individual consumer has enough market power to affect the price and supply of copper.Local public utilities (ex. water, electricity)
Monopolistic market because there are generally only one supplier of each type of public utilities, e.g. one water company per city.Peanut butter
Monopolistically competitive markets since there are many consumers and suppliers, but each supplier produces a slightly different product. Even though there are several peanut butter brands, no two brands offer the same peanut butter.Lipstick
Monopolistically competitive markets since there are many consumers and suppliers, but each supplier produces a slightly different product. Even though there are several lipstick brands, no two brands offer the same lipstick.In this way, it should be classified.

Bank Robbery. Victor robbed Safe Bank of a significant sum of cash. Safe Bank offered a reward of $10,000 for anyone who captured or provided information leading to the capture of Victor. Ted, a police officer in town, promised Safe Bank officials that he would apprehend Victor. While on duty, Ted arrested Victor at a hamburger joint in town. He found Victor based upon a hunch he had after Ursula, who dated Victor, told him about various places Victor enjoyed eating. The bank refuses to pay either Ursula or Ted any of the reward money. Which of the following is true regarding the offer of the reward?A. The bank is likely to prevail because Ursula only provided past consideration.
B. The bank is likely to prevail because Ursula was tainted by being Victor's girlfriend.
C. The bank is likely to prevail because no valid bilateral contract existed.
D. Ursula is likely to prevail because a valid bilateral contract existed.
E. Ursula is likely to prevail because an enforceable unilateral contract exists based on her provision of information leading to the capture of Victor.
Answer:
E. Ursula is likely to prevail because an enforceable unilateral contract exists based on her provision of information leading to the capture of Victor.
Explanation:
A unilateral contract is in existence because safe bank has made an offer to pay $10,000. And in a unilateral contract when an offerer like safe bank makes an offer, the offer is accepted through actual performance which Ted has done through information Ursula provided. Therefore Ursula would prevail because unilateral contracts are enforceable by the law.
There are zero coupon bonds outstanding that have a YTM of 5.97 percent and mature in 19 years. The bonds have a par value of $10,000. If we assume semiannual compounding, what is the price of the bonds
Answer:
market price = $1,104.20
Explanation:
yield to maturity of zero coupon bonds = (face value / market price)¹/ⁿ - 1
YTM = 5.97%n = 19 x 2 = 38face value = $10,000(face value / market price)¹/ⁿ = YTM + 1
face value / market price = (YTM + 1)ⁿ
market price = face value / (YTM + 1)ⁿ
market price = $10,000 / 1.0597³⁸ = $10,000 / 9.0563 = $1,104.20
During the year, the Senbet Discount Tire Company had gross sales of $1.24 million. The company’s cost of goods sold and selling expenses were $593,000 and $246,000, respectively. The company also had notes payable of $850,000. These notes carried an interest rate of 5 percent. Depreciation was $123,000. The tax rate was 23 percent. a. What was the company’s net income? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 1,234,567.) b. What was the company’s operating cash flow? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 1,234,567.)
Answer:
Net income= $139,755
Operating cash flow= $346,835
Explanation:
Senbet discount tire company has a gross sale of $1.24 million
The cost of goods sold is $593,000
The selling expense is $246,000
The company has a note payable of $850,000 with an interest rate of 5%
Depreciation is $123,000
Tax rate is 23%
(a) Inorder to calculate the tax expense the first step is to find the interest
Interest= debt×interest rate
= $850,000×5/100
= 850,000×0.05
= 42,500
Therefore, the net income can be calculated as follows
= (sales-cost of goods sold-selling expense-depreciation-interest)(1-tax rate)
=( $593,000-$246,000-$123,000-42,500)(1-0.23)
= 181,500×0.77
= $139,755
(b) Inorder to calculate the operating cash flow the first step is to find the tax expense
Tax expense= (gross sales-cost of goods sold-selling expense-depreciation-interest)× tax
($1,240,000-$593,000-$246,000-$123,000-42,500)×0.23
= $235,500×0.23
= $54,165
Therefore, the operating cash flow can be calculated as follows
= gross sales-cost of goods sold-selling expense-depreciation-tax expense+depreciation
=$1,240,000-$593,000-$246,000-$123,000-$54,165+$123,000
= $346,835
Hence the net income is $139,755 and the operating cash flow is $346,835
The current zero-coupon yield curve for risk-free bonds is as follows: Maturity (years) 1 2 3 4 5 YTM 5.05 % 5.49 % 5.78 % 5.93 % 6.09 % What is the price per $ 100 face value of a four-year, zero-coupon, risk-free bond?
Answer:
The answer is $79.42
Explanation:
Zero-coupon bonds does not make any periodic payments of interest. It pays both the interest and the face value at maturity.
N(Number of periods) = 4 years
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 5.93 percent
PV(present value or market price) = ?
PMT( coupon payment) = 0
FV( Future value or par value) = $100
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 4; I/Y = 5.93; PMT = 0; FV= $100; CPT PV= -79.42
Therefore, the market price of the bond is $79.42

A stock has a beta of 1.29 and an expected return of 11.57 percent. If the risk-free rate is 4.4 percent, what is the stock's reward-to-risk ratio
Answer:
5.56%
Explanation:
the reward to risk ratio of this stock is:
reward to risk = (expected return - risk free rate) / beta
reward to risk = (11.57% - 4.4%) / 1.29 = 5.56%
The reward to risk ratio shows the investors how much extra money they should expect to earn for every dollar that they invest in a certain stock due to the stock's risk. A stock with a beta of 1 only carries the market risk, but since this stock's beta is 1.29, its risk is higher.
