Waterway Industries estimates its sales at 240000 units in the first quarter and that sales will increase by 26000 units each quarter over the year. They have, and desire, a 25% ending inventory of finished goods. Each unit sells for $35. 40% of the sales are for cash. 70% of the credit customers pay within the quarter. The remainder is received in the quarter following sale. Cash collections for the third quarter are budgeted at:
a. $5,735,800.
b. $11,574,800.
c. $8,380,400.
d. $10,056,200.
Answer:
d. $10,056,200.
Explanation:
The computation of the cash collection for the third quarter is shown below;
Sales in quarter 1 is 240,000 units
Sales in quarter 2 is 240,000 + 26000 units = 266,000 units
And, the sales in quarter 3 is 266,000 units + 24000 units = 292,000 units
Now
= (292,000 units × $35 × 40%) + (292,000 × $35 × 60% × 70%) + (266,000 units × $35 × 60% × 30%)
= $4,088,000 + $4,292,400 + $1,675,800
= $10,056,200
Examples of successfulness of the competition policy in South Africa
Explanation:
By Kgomotso Ramotsho
The Competition Law Committee of the Law Society of the Northern Provinces held its last Annual Gala Breakfast in October 2018 in Johannesburg. The gala breakfast was organised and hosted by ENSafrica. Members of the panel discussed ‘Experiencing twenty years of competition practice’. The Competition Commission Commissioner, Tembinkosi Bonakele, said South Africa (SA) has challenges in the economic front and added that employment growth numbers were not impressive.
Mr Bonakele said this is a challenge and added that there can be talks about what the Competition Commission can contribute, however, there are concerns about the structure of the economy and concentration levels in the economy. He pointed out that another challenge, is with regards to developing competition experts. He said that SA could have done better in developing experts. He pointed out that when looking at who the experts are, the economic front is dominated by European experts, instead of local experts.
Mr Bonakele said it was easy for legal practitioners to make the transition into competition law. However, he added that another challenge is with economists. He said universities should produce a pool of economists that can help in the industry. Full-time member of the Competition Tribunal, Yasmin Carrim, added that the industry was not doing enough and that the pool of economists is small. She pointed out that it was not only up to universities to produce expert economists. She said the industry needed to grab the opportunity and utilise different strategies, such as giving practical training or internships to students, so that when they graduate they would have a sense of the work environment.
Full-time member of the Competition Tribunal, Yasmin Carrim, listed the quality of work done by competition law legal practitioners and economists in South Africa as one of the successes in the industry. She spoke at the last annual gala breakfast held in Johannesburg by the Competition Law Committee of the Law Society of the Northern Provinces.
Ms Carrim, however, said that from her personal experience, one of the successes in the industry has been the quality of work done by both legal practitioners and economists in the country. Mr Bonakele added that SA has made strides in establishing itself as a respected jurisdiction with locally developed practices and sharpened skills in the competition area, he noted that these were good signs. Judge President of the Competition Appeal Court, Dennis Davis, posed a question to Mr Bonakele with regards to work done by experts outside SA.
Mr Bonakele said the Competition Commission has relied on local experts. However, he pointed out that the issue is with the number of local experts. He noted that the country has knowledgeable experts even though they are few in numbers. He added that even though foreign experts are brought in to work in SA, they should team up with local experts as they understand the local conditions, they are open minded and are trained by the best in the world.

Olivia wants to buy some vacant land for investment purposes. She cannot afford the full purchase price. Instead, Olivia pays the landowner $14,500 to obtain an option to buy the land for $290,000 anytime in the next four years. Fourteen months after purchasing the option, Olivia sells the option for $18,125. What is the amount and character of Olivia's gain or loss?
Answer:
$3,625
Explanation:
Missing word "She has a long-term capital gain of $..................."
Long term capital gain = Sale price of option - Buying price of option
Long term capital gain = $18,125 - $14,500
Long term capital gain = $3,625
So, the amount and character of Olivia's long-term capital gain is $3,625.

Diversification tends to increase portfolio performance, because:____.
A. Diverse portfolios have a higher expected return.
B. Diverse portfolios have a lower volatility.
C. The assets in a diverse portfolio are perfectly correlated.
D. A diverse portfolio is more likely to have a stock inside of it that performs amazingly well.
Answer:
D. A diverse portfolio is more likely to have a stock inside of it that performs amazingly well.
Explanation:
Diversification of portfolio means adding different stocks / shares in investment portfolio.
Option D is correct because when we have different kind of stock, there are chances that if one fails to perform, one can outperform and it is likely to have a stock which can perform amazingly well.
Now we will see that why all the options are incorrect one by one.
option A is not true because it is not necessary that diverse portfolio cannot fail altogether. So it cannot be guaranteed that it will have higher return for sure.
Option B is not true as diverse portfolio cannot have lower volatility if all perform like same.
Option C is also incorrect as correlation is not necessary in diverse portfolio.
The town of Draper, with a population of 20,000, sits adjacent to State University, which has an enrollment of 27,000 students. Downtown Draper merchants have long complained about the lack of parking available to their customers. This is one primary reason for the steady migration of downtown businesses to a mall several miles outside town. The local chamber of commerce has finally convinced the town council to consider the construction of a new multilevel indoor parking facility downtown. Kelly Mattingly, the town’s public works director, has developed plans for a facility that would cost $4.5 million to construct. To pay for the project, the town would sell municipal bonds with a duration of 30 years at 8% interest. Kelly also estimates that five employees would be required to operate the lot on a daily basis, at a total annual cost of $140,000. It is estimated that each car that enters the lot would park for an average of 2.5 hours and pay an average fee of $3.20. Further, it is estimated that each car that parks in the lot would (on average) cost the town $0.60 in annual maintenance for cleaning and repairs to the facility. Most of the downtown businesses (which include a number of restaurants) are open 7 days per week.
Required:
a. Using break-even analysis, determine the number of cars that would have to park in the lot on an annual basis to pay off the project in the 30-year time frame.
b. From the results in (A), determine the approximate number of cars that would have to park in the lot on a daily basis. Does this seem to be a reasonable number to achieve, given the size of the town and college population?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Let the break even sales be represented by x.
Firstly, we will calculate the total fixed cost which will be:
Investment = $4.5million/30 = $150,000
Add: Annual labor cost = $140,000
Add: Interest = 8% × $4.5million = $360,000
Total Fixed cost = $650000
The total variable cost will be: = 0.60 × x = 0.60x
Therefore, total cost:
= fixed cost + variable cost
= 650000 + 0.60x
Total revenue = Selling price × sales
= 3.20 × x = 3.20x
Break even point will now be:
Total revenue = Total cost
3.20x = 650000 + 0.60x
3.20x - 0.60x = 650000
2.60x = 650000
x = 650000/2.60
x = 250000
Therefore, number of cars that would have to park in the lot on an annual basis to pay off the project is 250000.
b. The approximate number of cars that would have to park in the lot on a daily basis will be:
= 250000/365 days
= 684.91
=685 cars

Emily buys only ice cream and chocolate and spends all of her income on the two items. Suppose the price of ice cream rises. Emily adjusts her optimal consumption bundle such that Emily now buys less ice cream and more chocolate at her new consumer equilibrium. According to marginal utility theory:_________
a. The substitution effect must have been bigger than the income effect since we observe Emily buying more chocolate.
b. The substitution effect must have been bigger than the income effect since we observe Emily buying less ice cream.
с. The income effect must have been bigger than the substitution effect since we observe Emily buying more chocolate.
d. The income effect must have been bigger than the substitution effect since we observe Emily buying less ice cream.
Answer:
d. The income effect must have been bigger than the substitution effect since we observe Emily buying less ice cream.
Explanation:
Since in the given situation it is mentioned that the ice cream is increased and she adjust her optimal consumption so that she purchased less ice cream and more chocolate so here the income effect would be high as compared with the subsitution effect as the high price of the ice cream decrease the real income with the actual income left and it would lead to purchase less

Kaiwan, Inc., a calendar year S corporation, is partly owned by Sharrod, whose beginning stock basis is $55,000. During the year, Sharrod's share of a Kaiwan long-term capital gain (LTCG) is $8,250, and his share of an ordinary loss is $33,275. Sharrod then receives a $33,000 cash distribution. Compute the following.
a. Sharrod's deductible loss.
b. Sharrod's suspended loss.
c. Sharrod's new basis in the Kaiwan stock.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Sharrod's deductible loss.
= Beginning stock + Long term capital gain - Cash distribution
= $55000 + $8250 - $33000
= $30250
b. Sharrod's suspended loss.
Beginning stock + Long term capital gain - Ordinary loss - Cash distribution
= $55000 + $8250 - $33,275 - $33000
= -$3025
c. Sharrod's new basis in the Kaiwan stock.
Sharrod's new basis in the Kaiwan stock is 0.
During 2020, XYZ Corporation had 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000 shares of 6% preferred stock outstanding. The preferred stock does not have cumulative or convertible features. XYZ declared dividends of $200,000 and $400,000 to preferred and common shareholders, respectively, during 2020.
On January 1, 2010, XYZ issued $2,100,000 of convertible 6% bonds at face value. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into five common shares. XYZ's net income for the year ended December 31, 2020, was $6,200,000. The income tax rate is 25%.
Required:
a. What is XYZ's basic earnings per share for 2020, rounded to the nearest cent?
b. What will XYZ report as diluted earnings per share for 2020, rounded to the nearest cent?
Answer:
XYZ Corporation
a. Basic earnings per share = $6,000,000/1,000,000
= $6.00
b. Diluted earnings per share = $6,000,000/1,010,500
= $5.94
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Outstanding shares December 31, 2020:
Common stock = 1,000,000 shares
6% Preferred stock = 50,000 shares
Dividends declared:
Preferred $200,000
Common $400,000
Issue of shares during the year:
6% Convertible Bonds = $2,100,000
Each $1,000 bond convertible into = 5 common shares
= $2,100,000/$1,000 * 5 = 10,500
Net income for the year = $6,200,000
Preferred dividend = (200,000)
Available for common stock = $6,000,000 ($6,200,000 - $200,000)
Income tax rate = 25%
Carla Vista Co. purchases land and constructs a service station and car wash for a total of $592500. At January 2, 2021, when construction is completed, the facility and land on which it was constructed are sold to a major oil company for $670000 and immediately leased from the oil company by Carla Vista. Fair value of the land at time of the sale was $70500. The lease is a 10-year, noncancelable lease. Carla Vista uses straight-line depreciation for its other various business holdings. The economic life of the facility is 15 years with zero salvage value. Title to the facility and land will pass to Carla Vista at termination of the lease. A partial amortization schedule for this lease is as follows:
Payments Interest Amortization Balance
Jan 2 2018 510000.00
Dec. 31, 2018 $83000.15 $51000.00 $32000. 47 7999.85
Dec. 31, 2019 83000.15 47799.99 35200. 44 2799.69
Dec. 31, 2020 83000.15 44279.97 38720.18 404079.51
The total lease-related expenses recognized by the lessee during 2019 is:_______
Answer:
$87,766.66
Explanation:
Computation of Lease related Expense Recognized by lessee in 2019
Depreciation Expense = (Total cost - Salvage value) / Estimated life
Depreciation Expense = $670,000 - $70,500 / 15
Depreciation Expense = $39,966.67
Interest Expense = $47,799.99
Total lease-related expenses = Depreciation Expense + Interest Expense
Total lease-related expenses = $39,966.67 + $47,799.99
Total lease-related expenses = $87,766.66
The spot price of BOA is $150. The risk free rate is 3%. Assume that BOA follows a log-normal model with volatility 20% and expected rate of return 2%. Consider a 1-year 150-180 bull spread on BOA made of calls. What is the probability that the payoff this bull-spread is $20 or more?
a. none of the above
b. between 0.42 and 0.46
c. below 0.42
d. above 0.46
Solution :
The probability of the payoff is greater than equal to $ 20 that will be fulfilled when the price of the stock crosses 170. But at price 180, the payoff will get stabilize.
Now the price of the BOA follows lognormal distribution, the continuous returns would follow the Normal distribution.
∴ So for the payoff of $ 20 or more than that, return has to be [tex]$\ln(170/150)=12.5163 \%$[/tex] Pa or more than that. So, x = 12.5163 %
[tex]$Z=\frac{x-\text{mean}}{s_d}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{12.5163-10}{20}$[/tex]
= 0.12582
∴ Using Z table, the cumulative probability to the left side = [tex]$0.550061$[/tex]
But the probability of the return which is more than 12.5163 % is given by :
= 1 - 0.55061
= 0.449939
= 0.45

At a price of $1.00, a local coffee shop is willing to supply 100 cinnamon rolls per day. At a price of $1.20, the coffee shop would be willing to supply 150 cinnamon rolls per day. Using the midpoint method, the price elasticity of supply is about:______.
a. 2.20
b. 0.90
c. 1.11
d. 0.45
Answer:
a. 2.20
Explanation:
The computation of the price elasticity of supply is shown below;
Here,
P1 = $1 Q1 = 100
P2 = $1.20 Q2 = 150
We know that
Price elasticity = percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ percentage change in price
where
Percentage change in quantity supplied = (Q2-Q1)÷(Q2+Q1) ÷ 2)×100
= (150-100) ÷(150+100) ÷ 2)×100
= 40
And,
Percentage change in price is
= (P2-P1) ÷ (P2+P1) ÷ 2)×100
= ($1.20 - $1) ÷ ($1.20 + $1) ÷ 2)×100
= 18.1818
So, price elasticity of supply is
= 40 ÷ 18.1818
= 2.20
At a price of $1.00, a local coffee shop is willing to supply 100 cinnamon rolls per day. At a price of $1.20, the coffee shop would be willing to supply 150 cinnamon rolls per day. Using the midpoint method, the price elasticity of supply is about:______.
A. 2.20B. 0.90

A small delivery truck was purchased on January 1 at a cost of $25,000. It has an estimated useful life of four years and an estimated salvage value of $5,000.
Requird:
Prepare a depreciation schedule showing the depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and book value for each year under the straight-line method.
Answer:
depreciation expense accumulated deprecation book value
$5,000 $5,000 $20,000
$5,000 $10,000 $15,000
$5,000 $15,000 $10,000
$5,000 $20,000 $ 5000
Explanation:
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($25,000 - $5000) / 4 = $5,000
Book value in year in subsequent years = previous book value - that year's depreciation expense
Year 1's book value = $25,000 - $5000 = $20,000
Year 2's book value = $20,000 - $5000 = $15,000
Year 1's book value = $15,000 - $5000 = 10,000
Year 1's book value = $10,000 - $5,000 = $5,000
Accumulated depreciation is sum of depreciation expense
Year 1 = 5,000
year 2 = 5000 x 2 = 10,000
year 3 = 5000 x 3 = 15,000
year 4 = 5000 x 4 = 20,000

At the beginning of 2017, your company buys a $34,000 piece of equipment that it expects to use for 4 years. The equipment has an estimated residual value of $2,000. The company expects to produce a total of 200,000 units. Actual production is as follows: 41,000 units in 2017, 49,000 units in 2018, 45,000 units in 2019, and 65,000 units in 2020.
Required:
a. Determine the depreciable cost.
b. Calculate the depreciation expense per year under the straight-line method.
c. Use the straight-line method to prepare a depreciation schedule.
d. Calculate the depreciation rate per unit under the units-of-production method.
e. Use the units-of-production method to prepare a depreciation schedule.
Answer:
32,000
8000
see below
.16
see below
Explanation:
I'm not really sure what the schedule is supposed to look like (im not good at accounting) exactly but i whipped up something real quick in excel and if you have any questions ask
the depreciable cost is just cost-salvage (the amount that's going to be depreciated) so for us its 34000-2000 or 32,000
the depreciation expense is just the depreciable cost divided by the useful live (32,000/4)=8000
see my attempt at a depreciation schedule below
The deprecation rate per unit is the depreciable cost divided by the total units
32000/200000= .16
and you can see below my attempt at the units of production schedule

ECB Co. has 1.25 million shares outstanding selling at $25 per share. It plans to repurchase 97,000 shares at the market price. What will be its market capitalization after the repurchase? What will be its stock price? The market capitalization after the repurchase is million. (Round to three decimal places.)
Answer:
Market cap = 28.825 million
Stock price = $25
Explanation:
Current outstanding shares = 1,250,000
Current price per share = $25
So, ECB current market cap = 1,250,000 × $25 = $31,250,000
Repurchase shares = 97,000
So repurchase value = 97,000 × $25 = $2,425,000
Hence, Market capitalization after repurchase = current market cap - repurchase value
= $31,250,000 - $2,425,000 = 28,825,000 or 28.825 million
Stock price = $25
Hot Dress. Doreen writes a check for a dress to Hot Dresses, Inc., a small specialty shop owned primarily by Betty. Betty was getting ready to go on an extended European vacation and temporarily closed the shop the day after the dress sale to Doreen. When Betty returned, she had a number of other things to do and did not take Doreen's check and some other checks to the bank for three months. Betty was independently wealthy and only ran the shop as a hobby, so she had not been in need of funds. When Betty finally took Doreen's check to the bank, Betty requested that her bank, ABC Bank, deposit the check into her account. When ABC Bank, however, requested payment from Doreen's bank, XYZ Bank, the check was dishonored because of insufficient funds in Doreen's account. Although Betty did not particularly need the funds, she did not like to feel as if she had been cheated; therefore, she demanded that Doreen make the check good. Which of the following parties is the holder of the check?
a. Doreen's bank
b. Hot Dresses, Inc.
c. Betty, because she owns Hot Dresses, Inc.
d. Bety's bank

So here as per the given situtation, the holder of the check would be doreen as we considered that he is the drawer of the check
So , the option a is correct
A computer company has $2,800,000 in research and development costs. Before accounting for these costs, the net income of the company is $2,000,000. What is the amount of net income or loss after these R & D costs are accounted for?
$800,000 loss
$2,000,000 net income
$0
Cannot be determined from the information provided.
Answer:
$800,000 loss
Explanation:
The Research and development cost is recorded as an expense in the income statement. Before considering the income statement the net income of the company is $2,000,000 it means the research and development expense has not been charged yet. After charging the expense against the income for the period will be:
Net income = Net income beofre R&D cost - R&D cost = $2,000,000 - $2,800,000 = -$800,000
Hence, there is a loss of $800,000 if we consider the R&D cost.
