Suppose that there are three beachfront parcels of land available for sale in Asilomar and six people who would each like to purchase one parcel. Assume that the parcels are essentially identical and that the minimum selling price of each is $595,000. The following table states each person's willingness and ability to purchase a parcel.
Willingness and Ability to Purchase Dollars
Bob 620,000
Cho 570,000
Eric 540,000
Ginny 530,000
Sean 750,000
Yvette 660,000
Which of these people will buy one of the three beachfront parcels?
a. Bob
b. Cho
c. Eric
d. Gianny
e. Sean
f. Yvette
Assume that the three beachfront parcels are sold to the people that you indicated in the previous section. Suppose that a few days after the last of those beachfront is sold, another essentially identical beachfront parcels is sold, another essentially identical beachfront parcel becomes available for sale at a minimum price of $582,500. This fourth parcel _____ be sold, because _____ will purchase it from the seller for at least the minimum price.
Answer:
When the minimum price is 582,500, the forth parcel WILL not be sold because the willingness to pay is LESS and no one will purchase it from the seller for atleast the minimum price.
Explanation:
Bob 620,000
Sean 750,000
Yvette 660,000
The people that will buy one of the three beachfront parcels are Bob, Sean and Yvette because they are the ones willing and has the ability to purchase the beachfront parcel of land available for sale in Asilomar.
Cho, Eric and Gianny may as well have the desire to own the beachfront land in Asilomar, but they do not have the ability to pay the selling price.
Therefore when the minimum price is 582,500, the forth parcel WILL not be sold because the willingness to pay is LESS and no one will purchase it from the seller for atleast the minimum price.
Clark Company estimated the net realizable value of its accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019, to be $178,000, based on an aging schedule of accounts receivable. Clark has also provided the following information: The accounts receivable balance on December 31, 2019 was $190,600. Uncollectible accounts receivable written off during 2019 totaled $13,300. The allowance for doubtful accounts balance on January 1, 2019 was $17,600. How much is Clark's 2019 bad debt expense
Answer: $8,300
Explanation:
Clark Company estimates that the net realizable value of their Accounts Receivable is $178,000. This is while their Accounts Receivable balance on the same date is $190,600.
This would infer that out of $190,600, they only intend on recovering $178,000.
The difference in these figures will be the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance at the end of the year because that is the amount that they do not believe they'll receive.
= 190,600 - 178,000
= $12,600
When the year started, the Allowance Balance was $17,600. Uncollectible Amount written off was $13,300. This amount would be written off from this account which would supposedly leave the balance to be,
= 17,600 - 13,300
= $4,300
The balance on the Allowance account is supposed be $12,600 yet the amount written off brings it to $4,300. The bad debts Expense for the year therefore, is the difference between these 2 figures because it is the bad debt expense that was written off from the $12,600 to bring it to $4,300.
= 12,600 - 4,300
= $8,300
Clark's 2019 Bad Debt expense is $8,300

Explanation:
Under SEC rules, internal controls over financial reporting (ICFR) are processes that provide reasonable assurance that financial reports are reliable. Which of the following is not assured by ICFR? A. Financial reports, records, and data are accurately maintained. B. Transactions are prepared according to GAAP rules and are properly recorded. C. Unauthorized acquisition or use of data or assets that could affect financial statements will be prevented or detected in a timely manner. D. IT controls that contain financial data are maintained.
Answer:
C. Unauthorized acquisition or use of data or assets that could affect financial statements will be prevented or detected in a timely manner.
Explanation:
Internal Control Financial Reporting is a framework designed to help companies manage their financial reporting and achieve the greater goals of risk assessment, control, information and communication, as well as monitoring. One of the weaknesses that could characterize ICFR is its inability to assure timely prevention and detection of unauthorized acquisition or use of data.
The scheme however ensures that financial records are maintained and that transactions are prepared according to GAAP rules. ICFR ensures that misstatements are detected in financial reporting.
Hank, a calendar-year taxpayer, uses the cash method of accounting for his sole proprietorship. In late December, he performed $20,000 of legal services for a client. Hank typically requires his clients to pay his bills immediately upon receipt. Assume his marginal tax rate is 30 percent this year and will be 33 percent next year, and that he can earn an after-tax rate of return of 12 percent on his investments.a. What is the after-tax income if Hank sends his client the bill in December?After- tax income ?b. What is the after-tax income if Hank sends his client the bill in January? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round "PV Factor" to 3 decimal places. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)after-tax income ?c. Should Hank send his client the bill in December or January?DecemberJanuaryd. What is the after-tax income if Hank expects his marginal tax rate to be 25 percent next year and sends his client the bill in January? (Round "PV Factor" to 3 decimal places. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: a. $14,000
b. $14,106
c. January
2. $15,535
Explanation:
a. If Hank sends the bill in December.
Tax rate is 30% this year.
Amount is $20,000
After Tax Income = 20,000 * (1 - tax)
= 20,000 ( 1 - 30%)
= $14,000
b. If Hank pays Next year
Tax rate is 33%
After tax return rate of 12%
Amount is 20,000
Tax = 20,000 * 33%
= $6,600.
Because this is next year, the present value of the tax needs to be computed for better comparison.
With an after tax return of 12%, the PV will be,
= 6,600 * PV factor ( 12%, 1 period)
= 6,600 * 0.893
= $5,894
The income therefore will be,
= $20,000 - 5,894
= $14,106
c. Hank should pay in January as he would make more income.
2. Tax rate is 25% next year and income is to be received next year.
Tax = 20,000 * 25%
= $5,000
PV of $5,000 = 5,000 * PV Factor (12%, 1 period)
= 5,000 * 0.893
= $4,465
After tax income = 20,000 - 4,465
= $15,535
53. To determine how to crash activity times a. normal activity costs and costs under maximum crashing must be known. b. shortest times with crashing must be known. c. realize that new paths may become critical. d. All of the alternatives are true.
Answer:
D. All of the alternatives are true.
Explanation:
Crash activity time are been used in the in different organisations for different reasons. In the case, above the mentioned conditions in all options are been put to consideration. Because in its determination, one has to analyze thoroughly its critical path method in its first step; here the tasks are been shortened before being tackled. Secondly, you identify the newer critical ways in dealing of the things.
Also, normal activity costs and costs under maximum crashing are been made known. Therefore, all options above appear to be one of the steps in critical ways of determining crash activity time.
Robert Necco and Nelson Packard are economists at Economic Research Associates. ERA asks Necco and Packard for their opinions about the effects of fiscal policy on real GDP for an economy currently experiencing a recession. Necco states that real GDP is likely to increase if both government spending and taxes are increased by the same amount. Packard states that if both government spending and taxes are increased by the same amount, there is no expected net effect on real GDP.
Regarding the statements made by Necco and Packard:
Necco Packard
A) Correct Correct
B) Correct Incorrect
C) Incorrect Incorrect
D) Incorrect Correct
Answer: B) Correct Incorrect
Explanation:
Whilst it was generally believed at some point that raising taxes and Government Spending by the same amount would have no effect, research has disproven this thought.
This is because it was shown that an increase in Government Spending leads to a larger increase in GDP than an increase in taxes reduces it.
This is because when the Government spends money, the Multiplier effect of Government Spending is always 1 more than that of the Taxes therefore raising taxes and spending by the same amounts still increases the Real GDP because Government Spending will create more income than taxes will take.
Necco is right, Packard is wrong.
Initially, you produce 100 boxes of jelly beans per time period. Then a new customer calls and places an additional order for jelly beans, requiring you to increase your output to 101 boxes. She offers you $1.75 for the additional box. Should you produce it?
Answer:
You should produce as long as the marginal cost per additional box is lower than the marginal revenue obtained by the additional box.
In other words, if the marginal cost of producing the 101th box is lower than $1.75, then, you should continue to produce, because revenue will be higher than cost, and a profit will be made as a result.
Nutall Corporation is considering dropping product N28X. Data from the company's accounting system appear below:
Sales $ 660,000
Variable expense $ 285,000
Fixed manufacturing expenses $ 244,000
Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 192,000
All fixed expenses of the company are fully allocated to products in the company's accounting system. Further investigation has revealed that $195,500 of the fixed manufacturing expenses and $110,500 of the fixed selling and administrative expenses are avoidable if product N28X is discontinued.
Required:
According to the company's accounting system, what is the net operating income earned by product N28X? (Input the amount as a positive value.)
Answer:
net operating income earned by product N28X is $ 69,000.
Explanation:
Only the avoidable costs will be accounted for in determining net income earned by N28X for its decision.
Sales $ 660,000
Less Variable expense ($ 285,000 )
Contribution $ 375,000
Fixed manufacturing expenses ($195,500 )
Fixed selling and administrative expense ($110,500)
Net Income / (loss) $ 69,000
Therefore, net operating income earned by product N28X is $ 69,000.
Consider the market for meekers in the imaginary economy of Meekertown. In the absence of international trade, the domestic price of a meeker is $30. Suppose that the world price for a meeker is $40. Assume that Meekertown is too small to influence the world price for meekers once they enter the international market.
If Meekertown allows free trade, then it will (import/export?) meekers.
Given current economic conditions in Meekertown, complete the following table by indicating whether each of the statements is true or false.
Statement True False
Meekertownian consumers are worse off under free trade than they were before.
Meekertownian producers were better off without free trade than they are with it.
True or False: When a country is too small to affect the world price, allowing for free trade will always increase total surplus in that country, regardless of whether it imports or exports as a result of international trade.
Answer:
Export
True
False
True
Explanation:
Free trade is a form of trade policy where there are no restrictions to imports or exports of goods and services.
The price of meekers is $30 in Meekertown and $40 In the world. Because meeker's are cheaper in Meekertown, it means that Meekertown is efficient in the production of meekers. As a result, they would export meekers to the rest of the world. It would be cost efficient for the rest of the world to import from Meekertown.
Consumers in Meekertown are worse of because of the trade because the price of Meekers would rise.
Producers are better off because they would earn more profits from the sale of Meekers at the world price.
Free trade increases total surplus because of efficient production. If a country is inefficient in production, it would import . This would increase consumer surplus and if it is efficient in production, it would export increasing producer surplus.

Answer:
Market economy:
2. The invisible hand guides resources to their highest valued uses
4. Prices are sey by supply and demand
6. Buyers and sellers are motivated by self-interest
Non-market economy:
1. Prices are set by government agencies
3. Buyers and sellers are motivated by government directives
5. Buyers and sellers are motivated by a sense of communal well-being
Explanation:
On the one hand, the concept of market economy refers to a type of economy system that basically indicates that the market will find the equilibrium and work properly without the help of the government and therefore it establishes that the economy does not need from the figure of the government and that this last one must worry only about the other issues that do not include the economy.
On the other hand, a non-market economy like its name indicates, it refers to the type of system that do consider that the presence of the government is very important for the correct system of the economy and all of its factors regarding the market. Therefore that this type of system approves the planning of the economy from the government without discussions.
