a) true
b) false

Answers

Answer:

b) false

Explanation:

On its website, the SBA states its objective as "We support America's small businesses. The SBA connects entrepreneurs with lenders and funding to help them plan, start and grow their business."

The SBA does not actually lend to small businesses but connects them with lenders.  Apart from this, they offer many other services that an entrepreneur requires to start off his or her business.  They offer business planning, coaching, advice, and support at every stage of the business as it continues to grow and guarantee lending to small businesses.  The SBA does not turn down any entrepreneur.

Explanation:

During the week ended May 15, 2019, Scott Fairchild worked 40 hours. His regular hourly rate is $15. Assume that all of his earnings are subject to social security tax at a rate of 6.2 percent and Medicare tax at a rate of 1.45 percent. He also has deductions of $32 for federal income tax and $22 for health insurance. What is his gross pay for the week? What is the total of his deductions for the week? What is his net pay for the week?

Answers

Answer:

Gross pay = 600

Deductions = 99.9

Net Pay = 500.1

Explanation:

Requirement A:

Gross Pay = 40 hours x $15/hour

Gross Pay = $600

Requirement B:

Security Tax ( 600 x  6.2%)  = $37.2

Medicare tax ( 600 x 1.45%) = $8.7

Federal Income = $32

Health Insurance = $22

Total deductions = $99.9

Requirement C :

Net Pay = Gross pay - all deductions

Net Pay = $600 - 99.9

Net Pay = 500.1

Future Value At age 20 you invest $1,000 that earns 7 percent each year. At age 30 you invest $1,000 that earns 10 percent per year. In which case would you have more money at age 60?

Answers

Answer:

In the case of age 30, there will be more money at the age of 60

Explanation:

When person start investing at the age of 20 then total year till 60 years age is  = 40 years.

Interest rate (r ) = 7 percent or 0.07.

Investment amount (Present value) = $1000

Now the total amount at the age of 60 years is calculated below.

[tex]Total \ amount = Present \ value (1 + r)^{n} \\= 1000 ( 1 + 0.07 ) ^{40}\\= 14974.4578 \ dollars[/tex]

Now calculate the total amount at the age of 60 years when he invest at the age of 30 and earns interest rate 10 percent. Now the number of years is 30.

[tex]Total \ amount = Present \ value (1 + r)^{n} \\= 1000 ( 1 + 0.1 ) ^{30}\\= 17449.4023 \ dollars[/tex]

Alpha Company has assets of $610,000, liabilities of $255,000, and equity of $355,000. It buys office equipment on credit for $80,000. What would be the effects of this transaction on the accounting equation

Answers

Answer:

Both assets and liabilities increase by $80,000

Explanation:

To start with, it is imperative to show the equation before and after the purchase of equipment on credit

Assets                   =Equity                         +    liabilities

$610,000              =$255,0000                 +$355,000

The equipment's purchase would increase the value of assets and liabilities by $80,000

Assets                   =Equity                         +    liabilities

$610,000+$80,000=$255,000                +($355,000+$80,000)

Answer: Decrease

Explanation:

According to the Law of  Demand, The quantity demanded for purchase of a commodity inversely varies with the price.

That is to say that "ceteris paribus" ( with everything being equal),When the prices of a particular good go higher, people will buy less of such commodity but will buy more, if the prices of the goods reduces.

We can say demand is elastic if quantity demanded for a commodity decreases with increase in price which will make people choose another  lower substitute good eg, detergent, ice cream

Also if  quantity demanded does not change much with increase in price , then it is referred to as Inelastic Demand  for example necessity commodity such as gasoline.

= 0.065/12

= 0.0054

= 0.54%

b. What is the​ EAR?

The effective annual rate will be calculated using the formula:

EAR = (1 + (APR / m)^ m) - 1

EAR = (1 + (0.065/ 12)^12) - 1

EAR = [(1 + 0.0054)^12] - 1

EAR = (1.0054)^12 - 1

EAR = 1.06676 - 1

EAR = 0.06676

EAR = 6.68%

A fruit company sells oranges for 32 cents a pound plus $7.50 per order for shipping. If an order is over 100 pounds, shipping cost is reduced by $1.50. This program is supposed to ask the user for the number of pounds of oranges and then print the cost of the order, but it is all mixed up! Can you put the lines in the right order?

Answers

Answer:

def cost_of_order(amount):

        cost = amount * 32

        if amount <= 100:

                print (cost + 7.50)

        else:

                print(cost + 7.50 - 1.50)  

cost_of_order(10)

Explanation:

This question requires we write a code to get the cost of the order. The total cost of the order including the shipping cost . Let us use function to solve this and the code will be written in python .

def cost_of_order(amount):

The first line of code depict a function we declared and called it cost_of_order. The parameter is amount which is the weight of the oranges ordered in pounds.

cost = amount * 32

Now the cost of the orange will be the product of the weight in pounds and the price of each pound. The actual price of the product will be 32 multiply by the amount in pounds.

if amount <= 100:

This simply means if the amount in pounds of the orange is less or equal to 100 the next line of code we run

print (cost + 7.50)

This block of code will run if the amount of orange in pounds is less than or equals to 100. Remember the amount in pounds must be over 100 before the cost of shipping will be deducted by $ 1.50 . Therefore, the cost will be added to $7.50 and printed.

else:

this simply means otherwise

print(cost + 7.50 - 1.50)

This line of code will be printed if the amount in pounds is over 100. Notice that $1.50 is reduced from the usual cost(including the shipping cost)

cost_of_order(10)

We call the function at this stage with the parameter which is the amount in pounds.

Run this code you will get the cost of the order .

Answer units (b) Determine the unit sales volume required to earn a profit of $5,000. Answer

Answers

Answer:

(a)

5,500 units

(b)

6,125 units

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the per unit selling price.

                        2007       2008

Unit sales        5,000      8,000

Sales revenue $60,000 $96,000

Selling Price    $12           $12

Now we need th separate the vairbale and fixed cost from total expense using high low method

Variable cost = ( Higher activity Expense - Lower activity Expense ) / ( Higher activity - Lower activity )

Variable cost = ( $76,000 - $64,000 ) / ( 8,000 units - 5,000 units )

Variable cost = $12,000 / 3,000 units = $4 per unit

Fixed cost = $76,000 - ( $4 x 8,000 units ) = $44,000

Contribution Margin = Selling Price - Variable cost = $12 - $4 = $8

(a)

Breakeven Point = Fixed Cost  / Contributin margin per unit

Breakeven Point = $44,000 / $8 = 5,500 units

(b)

Target sales = ( Fixed cost + Desired Profit ) / Contribution margin per unit

Target sales = ( $44,000 + $5,000 ) / $8 = 6,125 units

Suppose a bond issued by the European Central Bank and denominated in euros pays 44​% per year. Today the exchange rate is 1.521.52 dollars per euro. It is expected that the exchange rate in one year will be 1.671.67 dollars per euro. What is the annual dollar return on this​ bond? A. negative 5−5 percent B. 1919 percent C. 44 percent D. 1414 percent

Answers

Answer:

D. 14 percent

Explanation:

The computation of the annual dollar return is shown below:

But before that we need to do following calculation

Let us assume the par value be $100

So, the bond par value is

= $100 × $1.52

= $152

The interest rate is

= $100 × 4%

= 4 euros

Future interest rate in dollars is

= 4 euros × 1.67

= $6.68

Now par value in the future is

= $100 × 1.67

= $167

Now the annual dollar return on this bond is

= (Future par value + Future interest rate in dollars - bond par value) ÷ (bond par value)

= ($167 + $6.68 - $152) ÷ ($152)

= 14.26%

hence, the correct option is d.

A store will give you a 2% discount on the cost of your purchase if you pay cash today. Otherwise, you will be billed the full price with payment due in 1 month. What is the implicit borrowing rate (EAR) being paid by customers who choose to defer payment for the month? Show your calcuation steps. If you use the financial calculator, tell me your inputs and output (i.e. pv,fv,n, i/Y, pmt).

Answers

Answer:

The implicit borrowing rate (EAR) being paid by customers who choose to defer payment for the month is 24.48%

Explanation:

In order to calculate the implicit borrowing rate we would have to calculate the following formula:

implicit borrowing rate=Discount%/(1-Discount%) *12/( payment months - discount month)

According to the given data we have the following:

Discount % =2

Payment days = 1 month

Therefore, implicit borrowing rate=2%/(1-2%)*12/1

implicit borrowing rate=(0.02/0.98)*12

implicit borrowing rate=24.48%

The implicit borrowing rate (EAR) being paid by customers who choose to defer payment for the month is 24.48%

Using the CAPM, compute the cost of equity capital for the lodging division at the target leverage ratio for the division. Explain why this is higher than the cost of equity capital if Marriott had a zero-debt policy.

Answers

Answer:

Information from 1987:

There is a lot of information missing, I'll try to fill some important blanks:

Marriots's total debt $2,500 million (59% of total capital)

since debt to capital ratio = total debt / (total equity + debt)

then, we can assume equity = $1,737 million (41% of total capital)

the lodging division's number were a little different:

debt to capital 74%

equity = 26%

cost of debt = 1.1% + long term US securities interest rate (8.95%) = 10.05%

cost of equity = risk free rate + (beta x risk premium) =

risk free rate = short term T-bills = 5.46%beta = 1.11market premium = 7.92%

cost of equity = 5.46% + (1.11 x 7.92%) = 14.25%

Marriot's Lodging division's WACC = (26% x 14.25%) + (74% x 10.05% x (1 - 42% corporate tax rate) = 3.71% + 4.31% = 8.02%

If Marriot had a zero debt policy, its cost of equity would be lower because the business risk would be lower. The cost of debt is lower because interest payments decrease income taxes. But at the same time, you have to earn enough money to pay your interest obligations on time. That extra pressure to make more money, increases the company's risk. As the company's risk increases, investors will demand higher returns for their investment. That is why T-bills yield the lowest returns, simply because they are a extremely safe investment. As risk increases (more interests = more risks), investors will demand a higher rate of return and cost of equity will increase.  

Overton Company has gathered the following information. Units in beginning work in process 20,300 Units started into production 185,700 Units in ending work in process 24,900 Percent complete in ending work in process: Conversion costs 60 % Materials 100 % Costs incurred: Direct materials $103,000 Direct labor $333,306 Overhead $186,200

Required:
a. Compute equivalent units of production for materials and for conversion costs.
b. Determine the unit costs of production.
c. Show the assignment of costs to units transferred out and in process.

Answers

Answer:

a. Materials = 206,000 units and Conversion costs = 196,040 units

b. Materials = $0.50 and Conversion costs = $2.65

c. Costs to units transferred out = $570,465 and Costs to units in process =  $59,511

Explanation:

a. Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production for Materials and for Conversion costs

Units Completed and Transferred  = Units in beginning work in process + Units started into production - Units in ending work in process

                                                          = 20,300 +  185,700 - 24,900

                                                          = 181,100

Materials

Units Completed and Transferred (181,100 × 100%) =    181,100

Units in Ending Work in Process (24,900 × 100%)   =    24,900

Equivalent Units of Production                                  = 206,000

Conversion costs

Units Completed and Transferred (181,100 × 100%) =    181,100

Units in Ending Work in Process (24,900 × 60%)    =     14,940

Equivalent Units of Production                                  =  196,040

b. Calculation of  the unit costs of production.

Unit costs of production = Total Cost / Equivalent Units of Production

Materials = $103,000 / 206,000

               = $0.50

Conversion costs = ($333,306 + $186,200) / 196,040

                             = $2.65

Total Unit Cost = $0.50 + $2.65

                         = $3.15

c. Assignment of costs to units transferred out and in process.

Costs to units transferred out = 181,100 × $3.15

                                                 = $570,465

Costs to units in process

Materials  ($0.50 × 24,900)             = $12,450

Conversion costs  ($3.15 × 14,940)  = $47,061

Total Cost                                         =  $59,511

If government regulators guarantee a natural monopolist that it will earn normal profits, then the monopolist will Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

If government regulators guarantee the natural monopolist that it will earn a normal profit, then, the monopolist will not have any incentive to hold down costs.

Explanation:

Normal profits are the profits that allow a business to cover its total costs: both explicit costs and implicit costs. Explicit costs are those that have to be paid explicitely, for example: rent or wages, while implicit costs are the opportunity costs of not running a business.

If the natural monopolist has a government guarantee that it will always make a normal profit, then, it will not have any incentive to reduce costs, whether explicit costs or implicit costs.

The people in an economy have $10 million in money. There is only one bank that all the people deposit their money in and it holds 5% of the deposits as reserves. What is the money multiplier in this economy?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 20

Explanation:

The money multiplier show us how an initial deposit can lead to a higher final increase in the total money supply or it relates to the maximum amount of bank money that can be created, given a certain amount of money from central bank money.

Money multplier = 1 / reserve requirement

Reserve requirement is 5% of the deposits

Therefore, money multiplier is

1 / 0.05
