Kano International Publishing, headquartered in Berlin, Germany, is a leading global publisher of scientific, technical, and medical journals and books for researchers in academia, scientific institutions, and corporate R&D departments. For print publications, assume that Kano owns a Didde press (now manufactured by Graphic Systems Services) that was acquired at an original cost of $330,000. It is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over a 20-year estimated useful life and has a $43,000 estimated residual value. At the end of the prior year, the press had been depreciated for a full five years. At the beginning of January of the current year, a decision was made, on the basis of improved maintenance procedures, that a total estimated useful life of 25 years and a residual value of $83,000 would be more realistic. The accounting period ends December 31.Required:a. Compute the amount of depreciation expense recorded in the prior year.b. Compute the book value of the printing press at the end of the prior year.c. Compute the amount of depreciation that should be recorded in the current year.d. Prepare the adjusting entry for depreciation at December 31 of the current year.
Answer:
a. Compute the amount of depreciation expense recorded in the prior year.
$71,750b. Compute the book value of the printing press at the end of the prior year.
$258,250c. Compute the amount of depreciation that should be recorded in the current year.
$8,762.50d. Prepare the adjusting entry for depreciation at December 31 of the current year.
December 31, 202x, depreciation expenseDr Depreciation expense 8,762.50 Cr Accumulated depreciation - Didde press 8,762.50Explanation:
depreciation expense per year of Didde press = ($330,000 - $43,000) / 20 years = $14,350 per year
accumulated depreciation = 5 years x $14,350 = $71,750
net book value = $258,250
adjusted useful life of 25 years, 20 remaining
new residual value of $83,000
depreciation expense per year = ($258,250 - $83,000) / 20 years = $8,762.50 per year

Determine the uniform annual value for the cash flow below at an interest rate of 11% per year.
Year 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Cash Flow, 0 $ 30,000 30,000 30,000 30,000 45,000 45,000 45,000 45,000 45,000
a. $38,474
b. $37,744
c. $36,595
d. $39,595
Answer:
$36,595
Explanation:
The computation of the uniform annual value is shown below:;
Before that we need to find out the present worth which is
= $30,000 × (P/A , 11%, 4) + $45,000 × (P/A , 11%, 4) × (P/F , 11%, 4)
= $30,000 × (3.1025) + $45,000 × (3.69590) (0.65873)
= $202,630.51
Now the annual worth is
= Present value × (A/P, 11%,9)
= $202,630.51 × 0.18060
= $36,595

Magnolia, Inc. manufactures bedding sets. The budgeted production is for 31,600 comforters this year. Each comforter requires 7 yards of material. The estimated January 1 beginning inventory is 4,980 yards with the desired ending balance of 4,200 yards of material. If the material costs $3.10 per yard, determine the materials budget for the year.
Answer:
$683,302
Explanation:
The computation of the materials budget for the year is shown below:-
Total Material required = Budgeted production units × Material Required per unit
= 31,600 × 7
= 221,200
Material to be purchased (Yards) = Total Material required + Desired Ending material inventory - Beginning Material inventory
= 221,200 + 4,200 - 4,980
= 220,420
Cost of Material to be purchased = Material to be purchased (Yards) × Price Per yard
= 220,420 × $3.10
= $683,302
Bonds owned by investors whose names and addresses are recorded by the issuing company, and for which interest payments are made with checks or cash transfers to the bondholders, are called:
Answer: Registered Bonds

As a financial manager for WillPower, Inc, you have the following information: a) The company follows a residual dividend policy; b) The total capital budget for next year is likely to be $8,000,000; c) The forecasted level of earnings next year is $8,000,000; d) The target or optimal capital structure is a debt ratio of 40%;
Answer:
a. Amount funded with equity is $4,800,000
b. Dividend is $3,200,000
c. Dividend Payout ratio is 40.00%
Explanation:
Note: This question is incomplete, and the complete one is as follows:
As a financial manager for WillPower, Inc, you have the following information: a) The company follows a residual dividend policy; b) The total capital budget for next year is likely to be $8,000,000; c) The forecasted level of earnings next year is $8,000,000; d) The target or optimal capital structure is a debt ratio of 40%;
Please answer the following questions:
a. What will be the amount funded with equity for the project ? (Keep the answer to a whole number. Example of answer format: $1,000,000)
b. Compute the amount of the dividend . (Keep the answer to a whole number. Example of answer format: $1,000,000)
c. Compute the dividend pay-out ratio . (Keep the answer to two decimals. Example of the answer format: 55.55%)
The following are therefore the explanation of the answers to the question:
a. What will be the amount funded with equity for the project ? (Keep the answer to a whole number. Example of answer format: $1,000,000)
Given that the target or optimal capital structure is a debt ratio of 40%, this implies that there will be 40% debt finance and 60% (100% - 40%) equity finance. Therefore, we have:
Amount funded with equity = Total capital budget for next year * Percentage of equity finance = 8,000,000 * 60% = $4,800,000
b. Compute the amount of the dividend. (Keep the answer to a whole number. Example of answer format: $1,000,000)
Since the company follows a residual dividend policy, it implies that the earnings available are employed to finance capital expenditure budget first before dividends are paid to the shareholders.
Since amount funded with equity is $4,800,000 as obtained in part a, it implies that this must be deducted first from the forecasted level of earnings next year to obtain the residual that will be paid as dividend as follows:
Dividend = Forecasted level of earnings next year - Amount funded with equity = $8,000,000 - $4,800,000 = $3,200,000
c. Compute the dividend pay-out ratio . (Keep the answer to two decimals. Example of the answer format: 55.55%)
Dividend payout ratio refers to the percentage of the earnings or net income of a company that is paid by the company to its shareholders as dividend. This can therefore be calculated
Dividend Payout ratio = Dividend / Earnings = $3,200,000 / $8,000,000 = 0.40, or 40.00%
Therefore, WillPower, Inc is expected to pay 40% of its earnings as dividend to its shareholders.
The core CPI looks at the price changes of a market basket without Select one: a. luxury goods b. taxes c. food and energy d. imported goods
Answer:
The correct answer is the option C: food and energy.

a. The present value of a 3-year, $150 ordinary annuity will exceed the present value of a 3-year, $150 annuity due.
b. If a loan or investment has annual payments, then the effective, periodic, and nominal rates of interest will all be different.
c. An investment that has a nominal rate of 6% with semiannual payments will have an effective rate that is smaller than 6%.
d. The proportion of the payment that goes toward interest on a fully amortized loan increases over time.
e. If a loan has a nominal annual rate of 8%, then the effective rate will never be less than 8%.
Answer:
e. If a loan has a nominal annual rate of 8%, then the effective rate will never be less than 8%.
Explanation:
As we know that
EAR = (1 + r ÷ n)^n -1
where,
EAR = Effective annual rate
r = interest rate
n = number of years
By applying the above formula we know that the effective annual rate should always be greater than the normal annual rate
Hence, the correct option is e.
Therefore all other options would be wrong
At an output level of 6,000 units, you have calculated that the degree of operating leverage is 2.3. The operating cash flow is $12,000 in this case. a. Ignoring the effect of taxes, what are fixed costs
Answer: $15,600
Explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question:
Output level = 6,000 units
Degree of operating leverage = 2.3
Operating cash flow = $12,000
Contribution margin = Degree of operating leverage × Operating cash flow
= 2.3 × $12,000
= $27,600
Fixed cost = contribution margin - Operating cash flow
= $27,600 - $12,000
= $15,600

Corporation is expected to pay the following dividends over the next four years: $13, $9, $8, and $3.50. Afterward, the company pledges to maintain a constant 5 percent growth rate in dividends forever. If the required return on the stock is 12 percent, what is the current share price?
Answer:
Price of share $ 59.747
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.
This model would be applied as follows:
PV of dividend from Year 1 to Year 4
(13× 1.12^-1) + (9× 1.12^-2 ) + ( 8 ×1.12^-3 ) + (3.50 ×1.12^-3 )= 26.38
PV of dividend from year 5 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
PV in year 4 terms
PV = D× (1+g)/ke- g
D- 3.50, g- 5%, ke- 12%
PV = 3.50× 1.05/ (0.12- 0.05)
PV = 52.5
PV in year 0 terms
52.5 × 1.12^(-4)= 33.36469912
Total PV = 26.38 + 33.36 = 59.747
Price of share $ 59.747
The jewelry department has an initial markup of 55.6%, with total retail reductions of 15%. There are no alteration costs or cash discounts. What is the maintained markup percentage and the gross margin percentage
Answer:
Maintained markup percentage = 48.9%
Gross margin percentage = 48.9%
Explanation:
Given:
Initial markup = 55.6%
Total retail reductions = 15%
To find the maintained markup percentage use the formula below:
%MMU = Initial MU% - Retail reductions% (100% - Initial MU%)
Substitute figures:
%MMU = 55.6% - 15% (100% - 55.6%)
= 55.6% - 15% (44.4%)
= 55.6% - 6.66%
= 48.9%
Therefore, the maintained markup percentage = 48.9%
To find the gross margin percentage, use the formula below:
GM% = (Net sales - Total cost of goods) /Net sales
We can also use this formula below to find the maintained markup percentage:
MMU% = (Net sales - Gross cost of goods) /Net sales
But we are told that there are no alteration costs or cash discounts here. Therefore the gross cost is the same as the total cost of goods.
This means that the mantained markup percentage and the gross margin percentage are equal.
GM% = 48.9%
When organizations, in an attempt to prevent _____ asks customers to not enter characters but instead select them one by one from boxes, intruders may counter with
Answer: a. keyloggers, screen scrapers
Explanation:
When organizations, in an attempt to prevent keyloggers asks customers to not enter characters but instead select them one by one from boxes, intruders may counter with screen scrapers
Keyloggers is a program that allows another person to record the keys struck on a keyboard without the person typing knowing. The person recording can them compile the information to find out very confidential information. By asking customers to select characters this can be mitigated.
Screen Scrapers on the other hand are more lethal because they record that is being displayed on a screen and transmit it to another person thereby enabling them to see what the target is doing even if they select characters from boxes.
A bank has $10,000 in excess reserves and the required reserve ratio is 20 percent. This means the bank could have __________ in checkable deposit liabilities and __________ in total reserves.
Answer: $100,000; $30,000
Explanation:
The reserve rate is the amount of money that is made compulsory by the central bank of a country to the commercial banks to keep with them. It is a way of controlling the money in circulation.
A bank has $10,000 in excess reserves and the required reserve ratio is 20 percent. This means the bank could have $100,000 in checkable deposit liabilities and $30,000 in total reserves.
Since deposit is $100,000 and reserved rate is 20%, this will give an amount of: 20% × $100,000 = $20,000. Adding the $10,000 excess reserve will make $30,000 to which is the total reserve

Disadvantage
Battles for Control
With Joint Venture, an International firm will have access to the expertise of its partners who are locals and know how things are done. However, because the locals know how things are done and are in their country, there might be battles between the partners about who should dominate.

Tight Control
Disadvantage
Most Costly Method
With a wholly-owned Subsidiary, an international company will have complete control over the affairs of the business and not have to battle for it with anyone. The drawback however is the cost it will take to set up. Large amounts will always have to be spent on starting a fresh company in a different country.
Net credit sales = $400,000 Net income = $100,000 Average total assets = $80,000 Average accounts receivable = $20,000 What is the average collection period in days (rounded to the nearest whole day)?
Answer:
73 days
Explanation:
average collection period = number of days in a period / receivables turnover
receivables turnover = revenue / average receivables = $100,000 / $20,000 = 5
average collection period = 365 / 5 = 73 days

21. Find the present values of these ordinary annuities. Discounting occurs once a year. a. $400 per year for 10 years at 10%. b. $200 per year for 5 years at 5% c. $400 per year for 5 years at 0% d. Rework parts a-c assuming they are annuities due.
Answer:
a.
PV = $2457.826842 rounded off to $2457.83
b.
PV = $865.8953341 rounded off to $865.90
c.
PV = $400
d.
PV = $2703.609527 rounded off to $2703.61
PV = $909.1901008 rounded off to $909.19
PV = $400
Explanation:
An annuity is a series of cash flows that are constant, that occur after equal interval of time and that are for a defined period of time.
An ordinary annuity is the one whose cash flows occur at the end of the period. While an annuity due is the one whose cash flows occur at the start of the period. The formula for the present value of both the ordinary and the due annuity are attached.
a.
PV = 400 * [(1 - (1+0.1)^-10) / 0.1]
PV = $2457.826842 rounded off to $2457.83
b.
PV = 200 * [(1 - (1+0.05)^-5) / 0.05]
PV = $865.8953341 rounded off to $865.90
c.
PV = 400 * [(1 - (1+0.0)^-5) / 0.0]
PV = $400
d.
PV = 400 * [(1 - (1+0.1)^-10) / 0.1] * (1+0.1)
PV = $2703.609527 rounded off to $2703.61
PV = 200 * [(1 - (1+0.05)^-5) / 0.05] * (1+0.05)
PV = $909.1901008 rounded off to $909.19
PV = 400 * [(1 - (1+0.1)^-10) / 0.1]
PV = $400
Sebastian purchases two pieces of equipment for $189,000. Appraisals of the equipment indicate that the fair market value of the first piece of equipment is $132,300 and that of the second piece of equipment is $207,900. What is Sebastian's basis in these two assets? If required, round your interim calculations to two decimal places. Use rounded amounts in subsequent computations. If required, round final answers to the nearest dollar. Sebastian's basis for the first piece of equipment is $ and $ for the second piece of equipment.
Answer:
Sebastian basis in first piece of assets is $73,500 and second piece of assets is $115,500
Explanation:
Calculation of the total fair market value
Total fair market value = Fair market value of first piece of equipment + Fair market value of second piece of equipment
Total fair market value = $132,300 + $207,900
Total fair market value = $340,200
Therefore, the total fair market value is $340,200.
Calculation of Sebastian “S” basis in assets:
“S” basis in assets in first piece of assets = Fair market value of first piece of equipment / Total fair market value * Purchase cost
= $132,300 / $340,200 * $189,000
= $73,500
“S” basis in assets in second piece of assets = Fair market value of second piece of equipment / Total fair market value * Purchase cost
= $207,900 / $340,200 * $189,000
= $115,500
“S” basis in first piece of assets is $73,500 and second piece of assets is $115,500.
The Internal Rate of Return (IRR) represents which of the following: Multiple Choice The discount rate that must be lower than the required rate of return. The discount rate that makes the net present value equal to zero. The discount rate that makes the net present value positive. The discount rate that makes the net present value negative. The discount rate that is affected by the cash flows external to the project.
Answer:
The discount rate that makes the net present value equal to zero.
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.
It is the discount rate that makes the net present value equal to zero.
