Answer:
Explanation:
The total Expenditure is the summation of all the following parameters ( Spending on Education, Spending on Welfare and social security, Spending on Healthcare, Spending on Defense, Payments on Debt, Other Spending)
The total Expenditure = $(320+890+270+120+170+240) million
The total Expenditure = $2010 million
However;
The total Revenue = Income Tax+ Sales Tax+ Corporate Tax+ Social Insurance
The total Revenue = $(800+270+300+340) million
The total Revenue = $1710 million
The debt now will be the difference between the total expenditure and the total revenue.
Debt = $(2010-1710) million
Debt = $300 million
Therefore, Littleland needs to borrow $300 million
At the end of 2010, the total debt = Total debt of 2009 + amount borrowed in 2010
Total debt of 2009 = $ 3.5 billion
amount borrowed in 2010 = $0.3 billion
At the end of 2010, the total debt = $(3.5+0.3) billion
At the end of 2010, the total debt = $3.8 billion
Therefore; the Debt to GDP ratio in 2010 = 3.8/7.3 = 52.05%
The Debt to GDP ratio in 2010 = 52.05%
To the nearest whole percentage ≅ 52%
A company buys a machine for $68,000 that has an expected life of 8 years and no salvage value. The company uses straight-line depreciation. The company anticipates a yearly net income of $3,250 after taxes of 36%, with the cash flows to be received evenly throughout each year. What is the accounting rate of return?
a. 3.44%.
b. 4.78%.
c. 9.56%.
d. 6.12%.
e. 38.24%.
Answer:
c. 9.56%
Explanation:
Accounting Rate of Return = Average Profit / Average Investment × 100
where,
Average Profit = $3,250
Average Investment = $68,000 ÷ 2 = $34,000
Therefore,
Accounting Rate of Return = $3,250 ÷ $34,000
= 9.56 %

Cromwell's Interiors is considering a project that is equally as risky as the firm's current operations.The firm has a cost of equity of 15.4 percent and a pretax cost of debt of 8.9 percent.The debt-equity ratio is .46 and the tax rate is 34 percent.What is the cost of capital for this project?A) 11.97 percentB) 12.40 percentC) 11.02 percentD) 11.62 percentE) 12.38 percent
Answer:
Cost of capital = 12.40% (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Cost of equity = 15.4%
Pretax cost of debt = 8.9%
Debt-equity ratio = 0.46
Tax rate = 34%
Computation:
Equity multiplier = 1 + Debt-equity ratio
Equity multiplier = 1 + 0.46
Equity multiplier = 1.46
Weight of equity = 1 / Equity multiplier
Weight of equity = 1 / 1.46
Weight of equity = 0.685
Weight of Debt = 1 - Weight of equity
Weight of Debt = 1 - 0.685
Weight of Debt = 0.315
Cost of capital = [Weight of Debt x Pretax cost of debt] x (1-tax rate) + [Cost of equity x Weight of Debt ]
Cost of capital = [0.315 x 8.9% x (1-0.34)] + [15.4% x 0.6849]
Cost of capital = 12.40% (Approx)
What are the arithmetic and geometric average returns for a stock with annual returns of:__________.
a) 4%,
b) 9%,
c) -6%,
d) 18%
Answer:
Arithmetic average return = 6.25%
Geometric average return = 5.89%
Explanation:
Annual returns of 4%, 9%, -6% and 18%
Arithmetic average return of the stock = ∑ 4%,9%,-6%,and 18% / n
= 25%/4
= 6.25%
Geometric average return formula = x1,*x2*x3 .....^1/n - 1
Geometric average return = 1.04*1.09*(1-0.06)*1.18^1/4 -1
Geometric average return = 1.04*1.09*0.94*1.18^1/4 - 1
Geometric average return = 1.25789^1/4-1
Geometric average return = 1.0589 - 1
Geometric average return = 0.0589
Geometric average return = 5.89%

b. Decreases by 4.33%
c. Decreases by 4.5%
d. Does not change
e. Increases by 4.5%
f. Increases by 60.6%
Answer:
c. Decreases by 4.5%
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the percentage change in the PV
First step is to calculate the present value when r is 5%
PV = 100 / (1 + 5%)^1
PV = $95.24
Second step is to calculate present value when r is 10%
PV = 100 / (1 + 10%)^1
PV = $ 90.91
Last step is to calculate the percentage change in the PV
Percentage change in the PV = (90.91 - 95.24) * 100 / 95.24
Percentage change in the PV = - 4.55% (Decrease)
Therefore the Percentage change in the PV Decreases by 4.5%

List three pieces of information listed in a credit card agreement that you believe are important to review before
Explanation:
Annual Percentage Rate (APR). This is the cost of borrowing on the card, if you don’t pay the whole balance off each month. You can compare the APR for different cards which will help you to choose the cheapest. You should also compare other things about the cards, for example, fees, charges and incentives
Minimum repayment. If you don’t pay off the balance each month, you will be asked to repay a minimum amount. This is typically around 3% of the balance due.
Annual fee. Some cards charge a fee each year for use of the card. The fee is added to the amount due and you will have to pay interest on the fee as well as on your spending, unless you pay it in full.

Where a producer chooses the intensity level of its market coverage, which level is chosen to utilize the “shotgun” approach?
Answer:
The level that utilizes the "shotgun" approach to market coverage is:
Intensive Distribution (mass coverage).
Explanation:
This marketing approach aims to reach many consumers through as many sales channels as possible. In this situation, consumers have easy access to the goods or services. The other approaches include Selective Distribution (where few outlets in specific locations are selected for the distribution of the goods and services) and Exclusive Distribution (where limited outlets are chosen because of the target market).
On January 1, a store had inventory of $48,000. January purchases were $46,000 and January sales were $90,000. On February 1 a fire destroyed most of the inventory. The rate of gross profit was 25% of cost. Merchandise with a selling price of $7,500 remained undamaged after the fire. Compute the amount of the fire loss, assuming the store had no insurance coverage. Label all figures.
Answer:
the amount of the fire loss is $16,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of the fire loss is shown below
January 1 inventory $48,000
Add purchases $46,000
Goods Available $94,000
Less Cost of Goods Sold ($90,000 × 100 ÷ 125) $72,000
Less Cost of undamaged goods ($7,500 × 100 ÷ 125) $6,000
Goods Lost by Fire $16,000
hence, the amount of the fire loss is $16,000
True or False: Under the average-cost pricing policy, the cable company has no incentive to cut costs.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
The cable company will not have any incentive to cut costs. This is because it knows that its costs will be averaged to determine the average cost to which a certain percentage is then added to arrive at the selling price. Having the cost averaged in this way will not motivate the cable company to seek cost minimization strategies that it could use to increase its income.

Waterway Industries factors $3000000 of its accounts receivables without recourse for a finance charge of 3%. The finance company retains an amount equal to 7% of the accounts receivable for possible adjustments. Waterway estimates the fair value of the recourse liability at $310000. What would be the debit to Cash in the journal entry to record this transaction?
Answer: $2,700,000
Explanation:
The debit to Cash in the journal entry to record this transaction will be calculated as:
= $3,000,000 - [($3,000,000 × 3%) + ($3000000 ×7%)]
= $3,000,000 - ($3,000,000 × 0.03) + ($3000000 × 0.07)
= $3,000,000 - [$90,000 + $210,000]
= $3,000,000 - $300,000
= $2,700,000
Therefore, the debit to cash will be $2,700,000.
Zhang Industries budgets production of 220 units in June and 230 units in July. Each unit requires 1.5 hours of direct labor. The direct labor rate is $12.40 per hour. The indirect labor rate is $19.40 per hour. Compute the budgeted direct labor cost for July.
Answer:
Budgeted direct labor cost for July = $4,278
Explanation:
Given:
Production in July = 230 units
Hours of direct labor = 1.5 hours per unit
Direct Labor rate = $12.40 per hour
Indirect labor rate = $19.40 per hour.
Find:
Budgeted direct labor cost for July
Computation:
Budgeted direct labor cost for July = (Production in July)( Hours of direct labor)( Direct Labor rate)
Budgeted direct labor cost for July = (230)(1.5)(12.4)
Budgeted direct labor cost for July = $4,278
