Answer: -30%
Explanation:
The Nominal gain is:
= 100,000 - 20,000
= 80,000 foci
Tax on nominal gain:
= 20% * 80,000
= 16,000 foci
After tax nominal value of land:
= 100,000 - 16,000
= 84,000 foci
The real value given the price index is:
= 84,000 / 600 * 100
= 14,000 foci
After tax real rate of cap. gain:
= (14,000 - 20,000) / 20,000
= -30%
Item4 3 points eBookHintPrintReferencesItem 4 Spotter Corporation reported the following for June in its periodic inventory records. Date Description Units Unit Cost Total Cost June 1 Beginning 12 $ 8 $ 96 11 Purchase 38 9 342 24 Purchase 20 11 220 30 Ending 24 Required: Calculate the cost of ending inventory and the cost of goods sold under the (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, and (c) weighted average cost methods.
Answer:
a. FIFO
cost of ending inventory = $256
cost of goods sold = $402
b. LIFO
cost of ending inventory = $204
cost of goods sold = $454
c. Weighted average cost
cost of ending inventory = $225.60
cost of goods sold = $432.40
Explanation:
Periodic method means cost of sales and inventory balance are determined at the end of the period.
Step 1 : Units Sold
Units Sold = Units available for Sale - Units in Inventory
= (12 + 38 + 20) - 24
= 46
Step 2 : FIFO
FIFO assumes that the units to arrive first, will be sold first.
cost of ending inventory = 20 x $11 + 4 x $9 = $256
cost of goods sold = 12 x $8 x 34 x $9 = $402
Step 3 : LIFO
LIFO assumes that the units to arrive last, will be sold first.
cost of ending inventory = 12 x $9 + 12 x $8 = $204
cost of goods sold = 20 x $11 x 26 x $9 = $454
Step 4 : Weighted average cost
Weighted average cost method calculates a new unit cost with every purchase made. this unit cost is then used to calculated cost of sale and ending inventory.
Unit Cost = Total Costs ÷ Units available for sale
= (12 x $8 + 38 x $9 + 20 x $11 ) ÷ (12 + 38 + 20)
= $9.40
cost of ending inventory = Units in Inventory x Unit Cost
= 24 x $9.40
= $225.60
cost of goods sold = Units Sold x Unit Cost
= 46 x $9.40
= $432.40

Lindsey Company uses activity-based costing. The company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A is 5,000 units and of Product B is 2,000 units. There are three activity cost pools, with estimated total cost and expected activity as follows: Estimated Expected Activity Activity Cost Pools Overhead Cost Product A Product B Total Activity 1 $ 24,000 200 800 1,000 Activity 2 $ 36,900 750 150 900 Activity 3 $ 63,000 1,000 800 1,800 The overhead cost per unit of Product A under activity-based costing is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activities rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 24,000 / 1,000= $24 per activity unit
Activity 2= 36,900 / 900= $41 per activity unit
Activity 3= 63,000 / 1,800= $35 per activity unit
Now, we can allocate costs to product A:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 24*200= $4,800
Activity 2= 41*750= $30,750
Activity 3= 35*1,000= $35,000
Total allocated costs= $70,550
Finally, the unitary cost:
Unitary cost= 70,550 / 5,000= $14.11

Sunland purchased the license for distribution of a popular consumer product on January 1, 2020, for $158,000. It is expected that this product will generate cash flows for an indefinite period of time. The license has an initial term of 5 years but by paying a nominal fee, Sunland can renew the license indefinitely for successive 5-year terms. What amount should be amortized for the year ended December 31, 2020
Answer:
No amount should be amortized since the license can be renewed indefinitely for successive 5-year terms.
Instead, the license should be tested for impairment annually to determine impairment loss.
Explanation:
An intangible asset that can be used indefinitely is treated like purchased Goodwill. It should never be amortized. Annually, the asset should be tested for impairment. The test is to compare the market value of the license with the book value.

Explanation:
Portfolio Returns i. stock has mean of 8% and stdev of 20%; ii bond has mean of 6% and stdev of 15%; iii correlation b/w stock and bond of -0.3; iv. Risk free rate for cash lending and borrowing is at 1%. a. What is the mean and stdev of a portfolio of that is 60% in stock and 40% in bond (3 points)
Answer:
Portfolio Mean = 7.2%
Portfolio Stdev = 0.1169615 or 11.69615% rounded off to 11.70%
Explanation:
The mean return of a portfolio consisting of two securities can be calculated by multiplying the weight of each security in the portfolio by the mean return of that security and adding the products for each security. The formula for two asset or security portfolio return (mean) can be written as follows,
Portfolio Mean = wA * rA + wB * rB
Where,
w represents the weight of each securityr represents the mean return of each securityPortfolio Mean = 60% * 8% + 40% * 6%
Portfolio Mean = 7.2%
The standard deviation is a measure of the total risk. The standard deviation of a portfolio consisting of two securities can be calculated using the attached formula.
Portfolio Stdev = √(0.6)² (0.2)² + (0.4)² (0.15)² + 2(0.6) (0.4) (-0.3) (0.2) (0.15)
Portfolio Stdev = 0.1169615 or 11.69615% rounded off to 11.70%
Company A Company B Market Value of Equity $400,000 $600,000 Market Value of Debt $100,000 $800,000 Cost of Equity 9% 9% Cost of Debt 3% 4% Tax Rate 35% 35% Based solely on their current weighted average cost of capital, which company should pursue an investment opportunity with an expected return of 6.5%
Answer:
Company B should pursue the investment
Explanation:
To determine a profitable investment opportunity to pursue, we would compare the weighted average cost of capital WACC to the expected return on the investment opportunity. An investment return greater than the cost of capital implies a profitable investment and vice versa
The weighted average cost of capital (WAAC) is the average cost of all the various sources of long-term finance used by a business weighted according to the proportion which each source of finance bears to the the entire pool of fund.
Lets first work the after tax cost of debt for the companies:
After tax- cost of debt = cost of debt × (1-tax rate)
Company A= 3%× (1-35%) = 1.95%
Company B = 4%× (1-35%)= 2.6%
WACC coy A= 9%× (4/4+1) + 1.95% × 1/(4+1) = 7.6%
WACC coy B= 9%× (6/6+8) + 2.6% × 8/(6+8) = 5.3%
Company B has a cost of capital of 5.3% which represents the minimum
return required by by the providers of capital. An investment an expected return of 6.% appears profitable as it is greater than the company's cost of fund of 5.3%
Company B should pursue the investment

Reid Company is budgeting production of 100,000 units of product R for the month of September this year. Production of one unit of product R requires three units of material B. For material B, the actual inventory units at September 1 were 22,000 units and budgeted inventory units at September 30 are 24,000. How many units of material B is Reid planning to purchase during September?
Answer:
Purchases= 302,000 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 100,000 units
Production of one unit of product R requires three units of material B.
For material B:
Beginning inventory= 22,000
Desired inventory= 24,000
To calculate the purchases, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 100,000*3 + 24,000 - 22,000
Purchases= 302,000 units

The multiplier effect occurs when an initial increase (or decrease) in autonomous expenditure produces a greater increase (or decrease) in real GDP than the initial change. In which type of discretionary fiscal policy does the multiplier play a role? tax changes only neither government spending changes nor tax changes government spending changes only both government spending changes and tax changes Assume a marginal propensity to consume (MPC) of 0.5. Which discretionary fiscal policy would have a more pronounced impact on the economy? A 800 billion dollar increase in government spending, or a 800 billion dollar tax cut, would both have an equal impact on the economy. A 800 billion dollar increase in government spending would have a more pronounced impact on the economy. A 800 billion dollar tax cut would have a more pronounced impact on the economy.
Answer:
The answer is "Choice d and Choice b".
Explanation:
In question 1:
The multiplier effect is produced whenever an initial rise (or decrease) of self-employed market capitalization (or decreases) GDP Growth higher than the original change. Where both increases in public spending or adjustments in taxes are produced by a budgetary monetary strategy, a multiplier mostly on the economy plays a major role in public spending and new taxes.
In question 2:
This marginal demand risk of 0.5 would have a more noticeable influence on financial spending, via an 800 billion dollar increase in government expenditure. This will have more major economic effects on fiscal policy. More noticeable effects of increased spending will have on the aggregate throughout the economy.
The use of government budget funding policies to impact economic factors, particularly macroeconomic variables such as aggregate consumer spending, employment, inflation, and economic growth, is referred to as fiscal policy.
How is a fiscal policy that is discretionarily chosen?The multiplier impact occurs anytime an initial increase (or drop) in self-employed market capitalization (or reduces) GDP Growth that is greater than the original change.
When a fiscal monetary strategy produces both increases in public expenditure and tax adjustments, a multiplier based primarily on the economy plays a significant role in both public spending and new taxes.
This marginal demand risk of 0.5 would have a greater impact on financial expenditures, resulting in an 800 billion dollar rise in government spending.
This will have a greater impact on budgetary policy. The aggregate consequences of higher expenditure will be more visible throughout the economy.
Thus, Options B and D are correct.

Suppose you are the money manager of a $5.21 million investment fund. The fund consists of four stocks with the following investments and betas: Stock Investment Beta A $ 320,000 1.50 B 780,000 (0.50) C 1,260,000 1.25 D 2,850,000 0.75 If the market's required rate of return is 10% and the risk-free rate is 5%, what is the fund's required rate of return
Answer: 8.65%
Explanation:
First find the weights of the stocks:
Total = 320,000 + 780,000 + 1,260,000 + 2,850,000
= $5,210,000
Stock A:
= 320,000 / 5,210,000
= 6.14%
Stock B:
= 780,000 / 5,210,000
= 14.97%
Stock C:
= 1,260,000 / 5,210,000
= 24.18%
Stock D:
= 2,850,000 / 5,210,000
= 54.70%
Then calculate Portfolio Beta.
Portfolio beta = (6.14% * 1.50) + (14.97% * - 0.5) + (24.18% * 1.25) + (54.72% * 0.75)
= 0.7299
Required rate of return using Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)
= Risk free rate + Beta * (Market return - risk free rate)
= 5% + 0.7299 * (10% - 5%)
= 8.65%
