Answer:
-$150
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return from the insurance company is shown below:
= Annual premium × probability of the stolen painting - 1 × theft of painting
= $15,000 × 0.01 - 1 × $300
= $150 - $300
= -$150
By multiplying annual premium with the probability of the stolen painting and then substracted theft of painting so that we can get to know the expected return and the same is to be considered

A corporation has operating income of $75,000. What is its taxable income if it receives a $20,000 dividend from another corporation in which it has the following ownership?
a. 10% is:
b. 65% is:
c. 90% is:
Answer:
Taxable income is $ 85000, $82000, and $75000
Explanation:
Given operating income = $75000
The dividend received from other corporations = $20000
Dividend received is taxable as, if the percentage of ownership is less than 20 percent then the deduction is 50 percent. If between 20 percent to 80 percent then 65 percent deduction. If more than 80 percent then 100 percent deduction.
a.10 percent ownership.
Taxable income = 75000 + 20000(1 – 50%) = 85000
b.65 percent ownership.
Taxable income = 75000 + 20000(1 – 65%) = 82000
c.90 percent ownership.
Taxable income = 75000 + 20000(1 – 100%) = 75000

a. Given that the equilibrium price is $8, what is the equilibrium quantity given the data displayed in the two tables?
b. What if, instead of bags of oranges, the data in the two tables dealt with a public good like fireworks displays? If all the buyers free ride, what will be the quantity supplied by private sellers?
c. Assume that we are back to talking about bags of oranges (a private good), but that the government has decided that tossed orange peels impose a negative externality on the public that must be rectified by imposing a $2-per-bag tax on sellers. What is the new equilibrium price?
Answer and Explanation:
a. The equilibrium quantity for the given two tables is
As if the equilibrium price is $8 so the six consumers i.e bob, barly,bill,bart, brent, betty) are paying more than the equilibrium price and on the other hand six producers (carlos, courtney, chunk, cindy, craig, chad) are accepted the price as the equilibrium price is more than the accepted price
Hence, the equilibrium quantity is 6
b. Now if all the buyers are free to ride so the quantity supplied by private sellers is 0 as the minimum accepted price is more than the willingness price as producers is not able to produced
c. At imposing $2 per bag tax on sellers, the new equilibrium price is $9 as the price rise to $9

At the date of the business combination, the book values of Spice’s assets and liabilities approximated fair value except for inventory, which had a fair value of, and land, which had a fair value of
Answer:
$830,000.
Explanation:
Step one: determine or Calculate the total number of assets.
Total number of assets = Retained Earnings + inventory(spice) + cash + land fair value + inventory (pumpkin)
Total number of assets = 180,000 + 25,000 + 15,000 + 95,000 + 30,000 = $345,000.
Step two : Calculate or determine the total liabilities.
Total liabilities = retained earnings + bonds payable + Account payable (pumpkin) +
Total liabilities = 180,000 + 40,000 + 10,000 = $230,000.
Step three: determine the value for the total amount of goodwill.
Total amount of Goodwill = A - B
Where A = paid consideration + non controlling interest fair value.= $(210000 + 90000) = $300, 000.
B= acquired Assets - assumed liabilities. = $(345,000 - 230,000) = $115,000.
Total amounts of Goodwill = A - B = $185,000.
Step four: determine the consolidated sheet;
185,000 + 95,000 + 65,000 + 360,000 + 30,000 + 95,000 = $830,000.

A store has 5 years remaining on its lease in a mall. Rent is $1,900 per month, 60 payments remain, and the next payment is due in 1 month. The mall's owner plans to sell the property in a year and wants rent at that time to be high so that the property will appear more valuable. Therefore, the store has been offered a "great deal" (owner's words) on a new 5-year lease. The new lease calls for no rent for 9 months, then payments of $2,600 per month for the next 51 months. The lease cannot be broken, and the store's WACC is 12% (or 1% per month).
A. Should the new lease be accepted? (Hint: Be sure to use 1% per month.)
B. If the store owner decided to bargain with the mall's owner over the new lease payment, what new lease payment would make the store owner indifferent between the new and the old leases?
C. The store owner is not sure of the 12% WACC. It could be higher or lower. At what nominal WACC would the store owner be indifferent between the two leases?
Answer:
A. Should the new lease be accepted?
No, since the PV of the new deal is much higher than the PV of the current deal.
current deal's PV = $1,900 x annuity factor (1%, 60 periods) = $1,900 x 44.40459 = $84,368.72
new deal's PV:
$2,600 x annuity factor (1%, 51 periods) = $2,600 x 39.79814 = $104,475.16
$104,475.16 / 1.01⁹ = $95,525.80
B. If the store owner decided to bargain with the mall's owner over the new lease payment, what new lease payment would make the store owner indifferent between the new and the old leases?
To determine which lease value would make the store owner indifferent between the two options, we have to determine the future value of the first 9 payments that are not paid. Then that value should be equal to the present value of the increase in rent for the next 51 months:
step 1, calculate future value of 9 payments:
F V = payment x [(1 + r)ⁿ - 1] / r
payment = $1,900 r = 1% n = 9F V = $1,900 x [(1 + 0.01)⁹ - 1] / 0.01 = $17,800
step 2, calculate the present value of the increase in rent:
PV = payment / {1 - [1 / (1 + r)ⁿ] / r}
payment = $17,800r = 1% n = 51PV = $19,674 / ({1 - [1 / (1 + 0.01)⁵¹]} / 0.01) = $17,800 / 39.8 = $447.24
the new lease payment for which the store owner would be indifferent = $1,900 + $447.24 = $2,347.24
C. The store owner is not sure of the 12% WACC. It could be higher or lower. At what nominal WACC would the store owner be indifferent between the two leases?
in order to determine at what WACC would the store owner be indifferent between both alternatives, I used an excel spreadsheet to determine the IRR of the differential amount between both lease amounts:
periods 1 - 9 = -$1,900
periods 10 - 50 = $700
this results in a monthly IRR = 2.74%
WACC = 2.74% x 12 = 32.88%
The interest rate on loan would be an effective 5% per semiannual, compounded monthly. What is the APY(annual percentage yield)
Answer:
The APY is 10.43%.
Explanation:
The annual percentage yield (APY) can be described as the real rate of return that is earned on investment or a saving deposit considering the impact of compounding interest. It is different from a simple interest rate that does take into account the effect of compounding interest.
APY can be calculated using the following formula:
APY = [(1 + r)^n] - 1 ............................... (1)
Where, for this question;
r = monthly interest rate = 5% / 6 = 0.83%, or 0.0083
n = Number of compounding periods per year = 2 semiannual in a year * 6 months = 12
Substituting values into equation (1), we have:
APY = [(1 + 0.0083)^12] - 1
APY = 1.1043 - 1
APY = 0.1043, or 10.43%
Therefore, the APY is 10.43%.
Your company is trying to decide which of the two following devices should be selected.
Device A: costs $1,000 but can save $300 annually
Device B: costs $1,350 but can save $300 the first year, but savings is increased $50 annually thereafter.
Both devices have 5-year useful life and no salvage value
a) Draw cash flow diagram for each option
b) If interest rate is 7%, which device should your company purchase?
Answer:
a) Find the attached jpeg file for the cash flow diagram
b) The company should purchase Device B.
Explanation:
a) Draw cash flow diagram for each option
A project cash flow diagram is a tool that is used to present a visual representation of the cost of a project and cash it is expected to generate over a specified period of time. On the diagram, x-axis represents the year, and y-axis represents cash out flows and/or inflows.
Note: See the attached jpeg for the cash flow diagram.
b) If interest rate is 7%, which device should your company purchase?
To determine this, we compare the Net Present Value (NPV) of the 2 devices.
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the NPVs of the two devices.
From the attached excel file, we have:
NPV of Device A = $230
NPV of Device B = $262
Decision: Since $262 NPV of Device B is greater than the $230 NPV of Device A, the company should purchase Device B.
Suppose the reserve requirement ratio is 20 percent. Assuming no bank holds excess reserves and nobody withdraws cash, a $10,000 injection of new reserves by the Fed can create (in the entire mult-banking system), a maximum of:
Answer:
The maximum money created is $50000
Explanation:
The given reserve requirement ratio is = 20 percent
The injection of cash = $10000
So, first, we have to find the money multiplier and then multiply with the injected amount.
Since the reserve requirement is 20 percent so the money multiplier = 1/ 20 = 0.5 or 5.
The Fed can create the maximum money = 10,000 x 5 = 50,000
With perfect price discrimination the monopoly a. charges each customer an amount equal to the monopolist's marginal cost of production. b. eliminates all price discrimination by charging each customer the same price. c. eliminates profits and increases consumer surplus. d. eliminates deadweight loss.
Answer:
Option D, Eliminates the dead-weight loss.
Explanation:
Option D is correct because there is dead-weight loss under monopoly because it produces less as compared to perfect competition. Therefore, a monopolist eliminates this dead-weight loss by producing at the level where the marginal cost curve cuts the marginal revenue curve and charging each consumer their willingness to pay the amount
The following data were reported by a corporation: Authorized shares 34,000 Issued shares 29,000 Treasury shares 10,500 The number of outstanding shares is:
Answer:
Number of outstanding shares is $18,500
Explanation:
Simply put, Number of outstanding shares is difference between number of shares issued and number of shares in treasury stock.
Hence, Outstanding shares = Shares issued - Treasury shares
= $29,000 - 10,500
= $18,500
The following data were reported by a corporation: Authorized shares 34,000 Issued shares 29,000 Treasury shares 10,500 The number of outstanding shares is Number of outstanding shares is $18,500. Simply put, Number of outstanding shares is difference between number of shares issued and number of shares in treasury stock Hence, Outstanding shares Shares issued - Treasury shares -$29,000-10,500 = $18,500.
Treasury shares are the shares that a corporation keeps in its own treasury. They could have come from a portion of the float and outstanding shares before being repurchased by the company, or they wouldn't have been possible issued to the public at all.
When a company buys back its own stock, the shares are designated as "treasury stock" and are decommissioned. Treasury stock isn't particularly valuable in and of itself. These stocks have no voting rights as well as do not pay dividends.

Assuming conversion costs are incurred uniformly during the process, the equivalent units for conversion costs are:
Answer:
Equivalent units= 464,760
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
beginning work in process 25100 units (70% complete)
completed and transferred out 449400 units
ending work in process 51200 units (30% complete).
To calculate the equivalent units for conversion costs, we need to use the following structure:
Beginning work in process = beginning inventory* %incompleted
Units started and completed = units completed - beginning WIP
Ending work in process completed= Ending WIP* %completed
=Number of equivalent units
Beginning work in process = 25,100*0.3= 7,530
Units started and completed = 449,400 - 7,530= 441,870
Ending work in process completed= 51,200*0.3= 15,360

Today you purchase a $600 face-value, 8% coupon bond for $600. This bond matures over 10 years. What is the value of the cash flow in year 5?
Answer:
the value of the cash flow in year 5 is -$48
Explanation:
Cash flow in year 5 include a capital repayment and interest expense.This can be determined by constructing an amortization schedule from the data given.
The first step in constructing the amortization schedule is to find the Yield to Maturity.
Pv = -$600
Pmt = $600 × 8% = $48
P/yr = 1
N = 10
Fv = $600
YTM = ?
Using a Financial Calculator the Yield to Maturity is 8%.
then to determine the cash flow for year 5, we need the coupon amount (interest) and the amount of capital repayment.
Coupon $48
Capital $0
Total $48
Therefore the cash flow in year 5 is -$48.

Common Stock $500,000 $400,000
Additional Paid-in Capital 200,000 100,000
Retained Earnings 300,000 200,000
Assume that the transaction is accounted for using the acquisition method. In the consolidated balance sheet at the end of the next year, the Additional Paid-In Capital account should be reported at
A) $400,000.
B) $300,000.
C) $500,000.
D) $200,000.
Answer:
Option C. $500,000
Explanation:
The reason is that the new additional Paid In Capital will be calculated by taking the stock issuing company's Addition Paid-In Capital and the additional paid in capital arising from stock issue, which means that:
Addition Paid-In Capital after merger = Addition Paid-In Capital of Paul Company + Addition Paid-In Capital arising from shares issues
Here
Addition Paid-In Capital of Paul Company = $200,000
Addition Paid-In Capital arising from shares issues = 60,000 shares * ($15 per share - $10 per share) = $300,000
By putting above values in the equation, we have:
Addition Paid-In Capital after merger = $200,000 + $300,000

Assume the total cost of a college education will be $395,000 when your child enters college in 18 years. You presently have $65,000 to invest. What annual rate of interest must you earn on your investment to cover the cost of your child’s college education?
Answer:
8.87%
Explanation:
Calculation for the annual rate of interest you must earn on your investment to cover the cost of your child’s college education
Using this formula
FV = PV(1 + r)t
Based on the information we were told to calculate for annual rate of return, this means we would be Solving for r
r = (FV / PV)1 / t– 1
Where,
FV =$300,000
PV=$65,000
=1 / t =1/18 years
Let plug in the formula
r = ($300,000 / $65,000)1/18– 1
r=(4.6153846)^0.055555 -1
r=1.08867-1
r= 0.0887 *100
r=8.87%
Therefore the annual rate of interest you must earn on your investment to cover the cost of your child’s college education will be 8.87%

When advertising a test product, should test locations in particular markets be isolated from media with a far reach, such as television?
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
In a test scenario such as this one, the test locations should be isolated from media with a far reach, such as television. This is mainly due to the fact that if media advertising reaches areas outside the market being tested, it will eventually attract customers from outside the test population which will in term contaminate the data. This can lead to false results, such as a product selling more than it really will.
The December 31, 2018, balance sheet of Whelan, Inc., showed long-term debt of $1,420,000, $144,000 in the common stock account, and $2,690,000 in the additional paid-in surplus account. The December 31, 2019, balance sheet showed long-term debt of $1,620,000, $154,000 in the common stock account and $2,990,000 in the additional paid-in surplus account. The 2019 income statement showed an interest expense of $96,000 and the company paid out $149,000 in cash dividends during 2019. The firm's net capital spending for 2019 was $1,000,000, and the firm reduced its net working capital investment by $129,000.
What was the firm's 2019 operating cash flow, or OCF? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)
Operating cash flow
Answer:
$606,000
Explanation:
For the computation of operating cash flow first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-
Net New borrowing = Long-term Debt, 2019 - Long-term Debt, 2018
= $1,620,000 - $1420,000
= $200,000
Cash flow to creditors = Interest expense - Net new borrowings
= $96,000 - $200,000
= -$104,000
Net new equity = Common stock 2019 + Additional paid in surplus 2019 - Common stock 2018 + Additional paid in surplus 2018
= $154,000 + $2,990,000 - $144,000 - $2,690,000
= $310,000
Cash flow to stockholders = Dividend 2019 - Net new equity
= $149,000 - $310,000
= -$161,000
Cash flow from assets = Cash flow to creditors + Cash flow to stockholders
= -$104,000 + (-$161,000)
= -$265,000
and finally
Operating cash flow = cash flow from assets + Net capital spending + Change in Net working capital
= (-$265,000) + $100,000 + (-$129,000)
= $606,000
