Answer:
Cotwold Company
The Molding Division
The Molding Division should not accept the transfer price proposed by management. It is not reasonable and fair according to the rules for transfer pricing. However, the amount is above the marginal cost for the Molding Division.
Therefore, the division should exhaust opportunities for renegotiation of the transfer price. However, ultimately, management's decision will prevail.

A company purchased a new pizza oven for $12,676. It will work for 5 years and has no salvage value. The tax rate is 41%, and annual revenues are constant at $7,192. For financial reporting, the straight-line depreciation method is used, but for tax purposes depreciation is 35% of original cost in years 1 and 2 and the remaining 30% in Year 3. For this question ignore all expenses other than depreciation. What is the tax payable for year one?
A. $2,535 $3,169
B. $4,657 $2,748
C. $2,748 $2,535
Answer:
straight line depreciation rate = $12,676 / 5 = $2,535.20
financial reporting income = $7,192 - $2,535.20 = $4,657 x 41% = $1,909
Accelerated depreciation = $12,676 x 35% = $4,437
taxable income = $7,192 - $4,437 = $2,755 x 41% = $1,130
tax expense for year 1 = $1,130
deferred tax liability for year 1 = $1,909 - $1,130 = $779
financial reporting income = $4,657
taxable income = $2,755
The stock of Business Adventures sells for $40 a share. Its likely dividend payout and end-of-year price depend on the state of the economy by the end of the year as follows: Dividend Stock Price Boom $2.00 $50 Normal economy 1.00 43 Recession 0.50 34 a. Calculate the expected holding-period return and standard deviation of the holding-period return. All three scenarios are equally likely. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) b. Calculate the expected return and standard deviation of a portfolio invested half in Business Adventures and half in Treasury bills. The return on bills is 4%.
Answer:
a. Expected holding-period return = 8.75%; and Standard deviation = 17.88%.
b. Portfolio expected return = 6.38%; and Portfolio standard deviation = 8.94%.
Explanation:
Given:
Dividend Stock Price
Boom $2.00 $50
Normal economy 1.00 43
Recession 0.50 34
a. Calculate the expected holding-period return and standard deviation of the holding-period return. All three scenarios are equally likely. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of expected return on standard deviation
The following are used in the excel.
HPY = Holding period yield = (((P1 - P0) + D1)/ P0) * 100
P1 = Year ending price of stock
P0 = Beginning price of stock
D1 = Dividend in each of the scenarios.
Boom = (((50 - 40) + 2)/ 40) * 100 = 30%
Normal = (((43 - 40) + 1)/ 40) * 100 = 10%
Recession = (((34 - 40) + 0.50)/ 40) * 100 = -13.75
From the excel file, we have:
E(X) = Expected holding-period return = 8.75%
Variance = 319.79
SD = Standard deviation = √variance = 17.88%
b. Calculate the expected return and standard deviation of a portfolio invested half in Business Adventures and half in Treasury bills. The return on bills is 4%.
W1 = Weight of T - Bills = 0.50
W2 = Weight of stock = 0.50
Rf = Return on T - Bill = 4
Rs = Expected return on stock = 8.75
Portfolio expected return = (0.50 * 4) + (0.50 * 8.75) = 6.38%
Portfolio standard deviation = (0.50 * 0) + (0.50 * 17.88) = 8.94%

Projected benefit obligation, December 31 $485 million
Add Benefit payments to retirees, December 31 $58 million
Less Interest cost ($42 million)
(350*12%)
Less Projected benefit obligation, January 1 ($350 million)
Service cost $151 million
Therefore the service cost component of pension expense for the year ended December 31 will be $151 million
A recent national survey found that high school students watched an average (mean) of 6.8 DVDs per month with a population standard deviation of 1.8 DVDs. The distribution of DVDs watched per month follows the normal distribution. A random sample of 36 college students revealed that the mean number of DVDs watched last month was 6.2. At the .05 significance level, can we conclude that college students watch fewer DVDs a month than high school students?

a. State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis.
b. State the decision rule.
c. Compute the value of the test statistic. (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
d. What is your decision regarding H0?
e. What is the p-value? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
Answer:
A)Null hypothesis; μ ≥ 6.8
Alternative hypothesis; μ < 6.8
B) The decision rule is that we reject the null hypothesis for all z-scores less than - 1.65
C)test statistic: z = -2
D) We reject Null hypothesis H0.
E) P-value ≈ 0.0228
Explanation:
We are given;
Sample size; n = 36
Population mean; μ = 6.8
Sample mean; x¯ = 6.2
Standard deviation; σ = 1.8
A) Let's state the hypotheses;
Null hypothesis; μ ≥ 6.8
Alternative hypothesis; μ < 6.8
B) The significance level is 0.05.
Let us find out the z-score that corresponds to a probability of 1 - 0.5 - 0.05 = 0.45 in the normal probability table attached.
From the table attached, we can that the corresponding z-score is approximately 1.6 + 0.05 = 1.65
The alternative hypothesis contains less than symbol which means this test is left tailed.
Thus, the rejection region includes all z-scores that are smaller than -1.65. Which means we reject the null hypothesis for all z-scores less than - 1.65
C) Formula for the test statistic is;
z = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)
z = (6.2 - 6.8)/(1.8/√36)
z = -0.6/0.3
z = -2
D) The test statistic gotten is z = -2
This is less than the z-score for the rejection the rejection region is answer B above.
Thus, we reject the null hypothesis.
E) from online p-value from z-score calculator attached , using; z = -2; significance value = 0.05, one tailed hypothesis, we have;
P-value = 0.02275
To 4 decimal places gives;
P-value ≈ 0.0228
A standard measure of leverage is the debt/equity ratio. According to conventional wisdom among financial analysts, a high debt/equity ratio indicates a high risk of insolvency or ultimate bankruptcy; conversely, a low debt/equity ratio indicates that the company is relatively solvent and able to meet its long-term obligations. Please see PowerPoints 59 and 60 in chapter 3 (copied below). In the case of Apple, their debt/equity ratio actually increased from 2002 to 2020. In other words, Apple carries more debt today relative to its equity than it did in 2002. However, very few people would argue that Apple is a riskier company today than in 2002. Please make an argument, supported by data, for why Apple is at least as solvent today as it was in 2002, despite its much higher debt/equity ratio. The argument should not just be supported by data, but you also need to provide either an additional keen insight (addressed to an accounting/finance professional) or do an excellent job explaining the concept to an audience member who is not an accounting/finance professional.
To whom did you address the answer above, to a professional or non-professional?
Answer:
There are three main reasons why Apple is a less risky company in 2020 than it was in 2020:
Apple is sitting on an enormous amount of cash. Apple has over 39 billion in cash, which is a very good amount to meet interest payments and dividend payments, making it very unlikely for the company to become unsolvent in the near future.Apple has a very high market capitalization, which is the total monetary value of the company stock. In fact, Apple is the number one company in the world by market capitalization, with 2.0 trillion dollars of market cap.The value of the stock of Apple has gone up substantially since 2002, sitting currently at 121 USD per share. This represents public confidence in the company from investors, and since Apple has good fundamentals, it is unlikely that the price of the stock will go down substantially in the near future.
The rational rule of consumption is to consume more today if the: marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future. price of consumption today exceeds the dollar-plus-interest in the future. marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is less than the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future. real interest rate in the future is expected to be higher than the real interest rate today.
Answer:
marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future.
Explanation:
A rational consumer should consume more today when the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future.
A rational consumer should continue to consume up until the point where the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is equal to the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future
If the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is less than the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future, a rational consumer should postpone consumption until the future.
Activity Expected Costs Expected Activity Handling materials $ 625,000 100,000 parts Inspecting product 900,000 1,500 batches Processing purchase orders 105,000 700 orders Paying suppliers 175,000 500 invoices Insuring the factory 300,000 40,000 square feet Designing packaging 75,000 2 models Required: 1. Compute a single plantwide overhead rate, assuming that the company assigns overhead based on 125,000 budgeted direct labor hours. 2. In January 2017, the Deluxe model required 2,500 direct labor hours and the basic model required 6,000 direct labor hours. Assign overhead costs to each model using the single plantwide overhead rate.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1. Plant wide overhead rate = Budgeted Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity.
where,
Budgeted Overheads :
Handling materials 625,000
Inspecting product 900,000
Processing purchase orders 105,000
Paying suppliers 175,000
Insuring the factory 300,000
Designing packaging 75,000
Total Cost 2,180,000
And, the budgeted activity is 125,000
So, Plant wide overhead rate is
= Budgeted Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity.
= $2,180,000/125,000
= $17.44 per direct labor hour
Now Assignment of Overheads
As Deluxe model required 2,500 direct labor hours
So, Deluxe model = 2,500 × $17.44
= $43,600
As Basic model required 6,000 direct labor hours
So, Basic model = 6,000 × $17.44
= $104,640

ABC Industries manufactured 2400 units of its product Huge in the month of April. It incurred a total cost of $132,000 during the month. Out of this $132,000, $45,700 comprised of direct materials used in the product and the rest was incurred because of the conversion cost involved in the process. It had no opening or closing inventory. What will be the total cost per unit of the product, assuming conversion costs contained $10,000 of indirect labor
Answer:
Unitary cost= $55
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Total number of units manufactured= 2,400
Total cost incurred in production= $132,000
Beginning inventory= 0
Ending inventory= 0
To calculate the unitary cost, we need to use the following formula:
Unitary cost= total cost / units manufactured
Unitary cost= 132,000 / 2,400
Unitary cost= $55

What profit or loss would Security Brokers incur if the issue were sold to the public at the following average price
Answer:
a. Profit = $780,000
b. Profit = $3,780,000
c. Loss = $2,220,000
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Beedles Inc. needed to raise $14 million in an IPO and chose Security Brokers Inc. to underwrite the offering. The agreement stated that Security Brokers would sell 3 million shares to the public and provide $14 million in net proceeds to Beedles. The out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Security Brokers in the design and distribution of the issue were $220,000. What profit or loss would Security Brokers incur if the issue were sold to the public at the following average price
a. $5 per share
b. $6 per share
c. $4 per share
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
The profit or loss can be calculated using the following formula:
Profit or loss = Sales proceed - Net proceeds to Beedles - Out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Security Brokers ........... (1)
Where;
Sales proceed = Average price * Number of shares = Average price per share * 3,000,000
Net proceeds to Beedles = 14,000,000
Out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Security Brokers = $220,000
We can proceed as follows:
a. profit or loss at average price $5 per share
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
Profit or loss = ($5 * 3,000,000) - $14,000,000 - $220,000 = $780,000 profit
b. profit or loss at average price $6 per share
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
Profit or loss = ($6 * 3,000,000) - $14,000,000 - $220,000 = $3,780,000 profit
c. profit or loss at average price $4 per share
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
Profit or loss = ($4 * 3,000,000) - $14,000,000 - $220,000 = -$2,220,000 loss

Jessica Adams is 21 years old and has just graduated from college. In considering the retirement investing options available at her new job, she is thinking about the long term effects of inflation. Explain the effect of long term inflation on meeting retirement financial planning goals. If long term inflation is expected to average 4% per year and you expect a long term investment of 7% per year- what is Jessica's long term expected real rate of return (adjusted for inflation)
Answer:
The summary as per the given query is summarized in the explanation section below..
Explanation:
The given values are:
The nominal rate of return,
= 7%
i.e.,
= 0.07
Inflation,
= 4%
i.e.,
= 0.04
Lengthy-term inflation would lessen the return on investment that lowers the net return as long-term investments are made.It can also aim to obtain a higher return that will comfortably exceed the rate of inflation and therefore is beneficial towards diminishing the average return.Now,
The rate of return will be:
= [tex](\frac{1+ nominal \ rate \ of \ return}{1+Inflation}) -1[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
= [tex](\frac{1+0.06}{1+0.04} )-1[/tex]
= [tex](\frac{1.07}{1.04} )-1[/tex]
= [tex]1.028846-1[/tex]
= [tex]2.8846 \ percent[/tex]
Therefore it isn't able to measure the average return rate because the quantity of years for its expenditure.
RideShare offers short-term rentals of vehicles that are kept in small lots in urban neighborhoods with plenty of potential customers. With one lot, it has six cars. The interarrival time of potential demand for this lot from its base of customers is 20 minutes. The average rental period is 4 hours. If a customer checks availability of vehicles in this lot online and finds that they are all rented for the desired time, the customer skips renting and finds alternative arrangements. However, because customers pay a monthly fee to subscribe to this service, RideShare does not want customers to be disappointed too often.
Required:
a. What is the offered load?
b. What is the implied utilization?
c. What is the capacity of the process (rentals per hour)?
d. What is the probability that all eight cars are rented at the same time?
Answer:
a. Offered load = 1 lot / 4 hours = 6 cars/4 hours = 1.5 cars/hours
b. Demand rate = Total cars per 4 hours/20 minutes time
Demand rate = 6*4 / 20
Demand rate = 24/20
Demand rate = 1.2 cars/hours
Implied utilization = Demand rate / Offered load
Implied utilization = 1.2/1.5
Implied utilization = 0.8
Implied utilization = 80%
c. Capacity of the process = 1 lot / 5 hours
Capacity of the process = 6 / 5
Capacity of the process = 1.2 rentals per hours
d. Probability that all eight cars are rented at the same time
=> (1 - 0.8) * (0.8)^8
=> 0.2 * 0.1678
=> 0.03356

Penn Company uses a periodic inventory system. At the end of the annual accounting period, December 31 of the current year, the accounting records provided the following information for product 1: Units Unit Cost Inventory, December 31, prior year 2,000 $ 5 For the current year: Purchase, March 21 5,000 6 Purchase, August 1 3,000 8 Inventory, December 31, current year 4,000 Required: Compute ending inventory and cost of goods sold for the current year under FIFO, LIFO, and average cost inventory costing methods.
Answer:
Total unit sold = Opening balance + Purhase in march + Purchase in August - Closing balance
Total unit sold = 2000 + 5000 +3000 - 4000
Total unit sold = 6000 units
1. FIFO method:
So total cost of goods sold is (2000*$5) + (4000*$6)= $34,000
Ending inventory value is (1000*$6) + (3000*$8) = $30,000
2. LIFO method:
So total value of goods sold is (3000*$8) + (3000*$6) = $42,000
Ending inventory value is (2000*6) + (2000*$5) = $22,000
3. Average cost of inventory:
Opening inventory (2000* $5) + Purchase on Mar.21 (5000*$6) + Purchase on August 1 (3000*$8) = $64,000
Total units = 2000 + 5000 + 3000
Total units = 10,000
Average cost is $64,000/10,000 (units) = $6.40 per unit
So, Cost of goods sold is 6000*$6.40 = $38,400
Ending Inventory value is 4000*$6.40 = $25,600

The old machine is more durable and is expected to have a remaining useful life of four years. The current market value of the old machine is $80,000. The expected salvage value of both machines is zero.
Required
Calculate the total avoidable costs in keeping the old machine and buying a new machine. Should the machine be replaced?
Answer:
Yes, the machine should be replaced
Explanation:
The calculation is given below:
Particulars old Machine New machine
Purchase price $300,000
Less:
Salvage value -$80,000
Operating cost $400,000 $144,000
($100,000 × 4 ) ($36,000 × 4)
Total cost $400,000 $364,000
Hence, the financial advantage is
= $400,000 - $364,000
= $36,000
As there is a financial advantage of $36,000 therefore the old machine would be replaced with the new machine

Lionel is an unmarried law student at State University Law School, a qualified educational institution. This year Lionel borrowed $24,000 from County Bank and paid interest of $1,440. Lionel used the loan proceeds to pay his law school tuition. Calculate the amounts Lionel can deduct for higher education expenses and interest on higher education loans under the following circumstances.
A) Lionel's AGI before deducting interest on higher education loans is $50,000.
B) Lionel's AGI before deducting interest on higher education loans is $74,000.
C) Lionel's AGI before deducting interest on higher education loans is $90,000.
Answer:
A) $ 1,440 deduction
B) $1,056 deduction
C) not allowed
Explanation:
IMPORTANT:
As 2020 student loan became interest-free according to Trump administration and extended by Joe Biden up to September 2021
We are going to work the numbers with 2019 values. Which is the closest year one could claim this deduction.
Below AGI of 70,000 we can have a full deduction.
so A) will be a $ 1,440 deduction
Between 70,000 and 85,000 we have a partial deduction.
so we do:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{74,000 - 70,000}{85,000 - 70,000} =\\\displaystyle \frac{4,000}{15,000} = \frac{4}{15}[/tex]
This is the fraction we are disallowed to deduct.
We take our interest expense and multiply by 1 less this amount:
[tex]\$1,440 \times (1 - \displaystyle \frac{4}{15} ) = \$1,056[/tex]
And that is the deduction we can make.
C) as the tax benefit phase-out above $85,000 AGI if Lionel's AGI is $90,000 there is no possible tax deduction
A) Lionel can deduct $1,440 for interest on higher education loans.
B) Lionel can deduct $1,440 for interest on higher education loans.
C) Lionel cannot deduct any amount for interest on higher education loans.
A) Lionel's AGI before deducting interest on higher education loans is $50,000.
Lionel can deduct the full amount of the interest paid on the higher education loan, which is $1,440. There is no limitation on the deduction for individuals with an AGI below $65,000 ($135,000 for married filing jointly).
B) Lionel's AGI before deducting interest on higher education loans is $74,000.
Lionel can still deduct the full amount of the interest paid on the higher education loan, which is $1,440. However, the deduction begins to phase out for individuals with an AGI between $65,000 and $80,000 ($135,000 to $165,000 for married filing jointly).
C) Lionel's AGI before deducting interest on higher education loans is $90,000.
Lionel is no longer eligible to deduct the full amount of the interest paid on the higher education loan. The deduction is phased out completely for individuals with an AGI above $80,000 ($165,000 for married filing jointly).

Two constant growth stocks are in equilibrium, have the same price, and have the same required rate of return. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The two stocks must have the same dividend per share. b. If one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a lower dividend growth rate. c. None of the above. d. The two stocks must have the same dividend growth rate. e. If one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a higher dividend growth rate.
Answer:
e. If one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a higher dividend growth rate.
Explanation:
Rate of return can be defined as the percentage of interest or dividends earned on money that is invested.
In Financial accounting, a return refers to the amount of profit generated by an investor on an investment over a specific period of time.
Basically, the rate of return which is typically expressed as a percentage of the initial costs of an investment can either be a gain or a loss on an investment. Therefore, a positive rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, simply means that an investor is making a profit (gains) while a negative rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, indicates that the investor is running at a loss.
Two constant growth stocks are in equilibrium, have the same price, and have the same required rate of return. Thus, if one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a higher dividend growth rate and vice-versa.
Answer:
e. If one stock has a lower dividend yield, then it must also have a higher dividend growth rate.

Paul Company had 100,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, 2021. On September 30, 2021, Paul sold 40,000 shares of common stock for cash. Paul also had 6,000 shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding throughout 2021. The preferred stock is $100 par, 6%, and is convertible into 3 shares of common for each share of preferred. Paul also had 420, 8%, convertible bonds outstanding throughout 2021. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 30 shares of common stock. The bonds sold originally at face value. Reported net income for 2021 was $270,000 with a 40% tax rate. Common shareholders received $1.20 per share dividends after preferred dividends were paid in 2021.
Required: Compute basic and diluted earnings per share for 2021. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Basic EPS = [$270,000 - (6% * $100 * 6,000)] / [100,000 + 40,000 * 3/12]
Basic EPS = [$270,000 - $36,000] / 35,000
Basic EPS = $234,000 / 35,000
Basic EPS = 6.685714285714286
Basic EPS = 6.69
Diluted EPS = [$270,000 + ($420,00*8%*60%)] / [100000 + 40,000 * 3/12 + (420*30) + (6,000*3)]
Diluted EPS = [$270,000 + $2,016] / [35,000 + 12600 + 18,000]
Diluted EPS = $272,016 / 65,600
Diluted EPS = 4.146585365853659
Diluted EPS = $4.15
