Answer:
Correct Answer:
C) only $25,000.
Explanation:
In the case between Blackacre and Paris over the piece of land, the value recoverable will be the difference between the original value of the land the the newest value of the land when the breach of contract occurs. Hence, the only amount recoverable by Paris would be $25, 000.
Rossdale Co. stock currently sells for $72.87 per share and has a beta of 1.22. The market risk premium is 7.10 percent and the risk-free rate is 2.90 percent annually. The company just paid a dividend of $4.29 per share, which it has pledged to increase at an annual rate of 3.45 percent indefinitely. What is your best estimate of the company's cost of equity?
Answer:
Cost of Equity =11.56%
Explanation:
The cost of equity can be determined using any of the following methods:
The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM)Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)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.
Price = D/Kp
D- Dividend payable
Kp- cost of preferred stock
The capital asset pricing model (CAPM): relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c
This CAPM is considered superior to DVM because it incorporates risk. Hence, we will use the CAPM
Using the CAPM , the expected return on a asset is given as follows:
E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)
E(r) =? , Rf- 2.90%, Rm-Rf- 7.10% β- 1.22
E(r) = 2.90% + 1.22×(7.10)% = 11.562 %
Cost of Equity =11.56%
Domingo Corporation uses the weighted...
Domingo Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. This month, the beginning inventory in the first processing department consisted of 2,300 units. The costs and percentage completion of these units in beginning inventory were:
Cost Percent Complete
Materials costs $7,400 50%
Conversion costs $3,600 20%
A total of 8,700 units were started and 8,000 units were transferred to the second processing department during the month. The following costs were incurred in the first processing department during the month:
Cost
Materials costs $160,600
Conversion costs $122,300
The ending inventory was 85% complete with respect to materials and 75% complete with respect to conversion costs. How many units are in ending work in process inventory in the first processing department at the end of the month?
a. 700.
b. 1,700.
c. 6.400.
d. 2,700.
Answer:
3,000 units
Explanation:
Calculation for How many units are in ending work in process inventory
Using this formula
Ending work in process units =Beginning work in process units + Units started into production - Transferred to the second processing department units
Let plug in the formula
Ending work in process units= 2,300 units + 8,700 units - 8,000 units
Ending work in process units= 3,000 units
Therefore 3,000 units are in the ending work in process inventory in the first processing department at the end of the month.
Oriole Company purchased equipment for $41600. Sales tax on the purchase was $2496. Other costs incurred were freight charges of $624, repairs of $364 for damage during installation, and installation costs of $696. What is the cost of the equipment
Answer:
The cost of the equipment is $45,416.
Explanation:
The cost of a newly purchased equipment is the addition of all relevant costs uncured in order to make the equipment ready for use.
The cost of the equipment includes costs such as purchase price, tax paid on the purchase, installation costs, etc.
However, any cost incurred to repair any damage to an equipment during installation is not part of equipment cost. Such repair costs are just ordinary expenses that are charged to the income statement during the period.
Based on the explanation above, the cost of the equipment by Oriole Company can be calculated as follows:
Equipment cost = Purchase price + Sales tax + Freight charges + Installation costs ..................... (1)
Since,
Purchase price = $41,600
Sales tax on the purchase = $2.496.
Freight charges = $624
Installation costs = $696.
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Equipment cost = $41,600 + $2,496 + $624 + $696 = $45,416
Therefore, the cost of the equipment is $45,416.
In the Vaughn Manufacturing, indirect labor is budgeted for $108000 and factory supervision is budgeted for $36000 at normal capacity of 160000 direct labor hours. If 170000 direct labor hours are worked, flexible budget total for these costs is:
Answer:Flexible budget =$ 150,750
Explanation:
Variable overhead rate = $108,000 / 160000 = $ 0.675 per hour
(budgeted supervision cost) Fixed overhead = $ 36,000
Flexible budget = Variable over head rate x direct labour + budgeted supervision cost (fixed overhead)
0.675 x 170,000+ 36,000
= 114,750+36,000
=$ 150,750
g According to the CAPM, what is the expected rate of return for a stock with a beta of 1.2. when the risk-free rate is 6% and the market rate of return is 12%
Answer:
20.40%
Explanation:
According to CAPM :
expected rate of return = risk free rate + (beta x market rate of return)
6% + (1.2 x 12%) = 20.40%
Compare and contrast the following forms of business organization: sole proprietorship,general partnership,limited liability company,and corporation as to ease of formation,liability of owners,management,and tax implications.
Answer:
Find the explanation below.
Explanation:
1. Sole Proprietorship is owned by a single person or a married couple.
a. Ease of formation: This business is very easy to form because owners are not required to have legal documentation for the business to begin operation.
b. Liability of Owners: Owners are personally liable for the success or failure of the business. This means that they bear the cost of whatever debt or losses that are incurred in the business and can be sued for it.
c. Management: The owner makes all the management decisions that could affect the business. He sets the time when his business can be run as well as the prices for his products.
d. Tax Implications: They fill out Schedule C where they calculate the profit and loss from their business. They declare their income in Standard Form 1040 and they are subject to Self-employment tax.
2. General Partnership is a business agreement between to or more owners.
a. Ease of Formation: It is quite easy to start this business because little or no legal documentation is required to kick-start the business.
b. Liability: All partners are liable for debts and losses incurred in the business.
c. Management Decisions: The management decisions are made by the general partners. This affords them a measure of flexibility.
d. Tax implications: Income tax is not paid rather, a separate tax return form is filed.
3. Limited Liability Company: These business entities are run by two or more business partners.
a. Ease of Formation: It is relatively easy to form because it is governed by state rules and regulations which must be adhered to by the business owners.
b. Liability: There is a limited liability as just the business assets can be withheld when there is a legal battle. Personal assets of partners can not be withheld.
c. Management Decisions: There could be a member-managed LLC where members make decisions in the business or a manager-managed LLC one or two non-members are employed to manage the business and make business decisions therein.
d. Taxation: Taxation is done once and profits realized are passed through to the personal income taxes of the members.
4. Corporations are set up by a group of businesspeople.
a. Ease of Formation: They are not easy to form as proper documentation which is governed by state laws must be adhered to.
b. Liability: There is a limited liability as shareholders are not held accountable for the debts and losses of the corporation.
c. Management: There are directors of the corporation who are elected by the shareholders, They make decisions for the corporation. Business officers are also appointed.
d. Tax Implications: There are lots of taxation requirements for which the corporation might seek advice from a taxation advisor to prevent double taxation.

richard has two investment opportunities. He can invest in the sunglasses company or the umbrella company. if he diversifies his investment by putting 50% of his money into each company, what is the expected return and standard deviation of his portfolio
Answer:
Some information was missing, so i looked it up:
State of Prob. of the state Sunglasses Umbrella
the economy of the economy Company Corporation
Sunny .50 25% 0%
Rainy .50 0% 25%
expected returns:
Sunglasses Company = 0.5 x 25% = 12.5%
Umbrella Corporation = 0.5 x 25% = 12.5%,
so the expected return of the portfolio = (12.5% x 0.50) + (12.5% x 0.50) = 12.5%
standard deviation:
Sunglasses Company = √{[(0% - 12.5%)² + (25% - 12.5%)²] / 2} = √156.25 = 12.5%
Umbrella Corporation = √{[(0% - 12.5%)² + (25% - 12.5%)²] / 2} = √156.25 = 12.5%
so the standard deviation of the portfolio = 12.5%
If, because of an externality, the economically efficient output is Q2 and not the current equilibrium output of Q1, what does D1 represent?
Answer:
Hello attached below is the complete question
D1 represents the demand curve reflecting private benefits ( c )
Explanation:
The effects of an externality is positive( shift of the demand curve to the right ) when the production of goods and service has a positive effect on the consumers ( people that are not involved in the production process ). this positive effect will lead to an increase in quantity demanded as well from consumers.
The curve ( D1 ) does not represent the social benefits for the consumers but represents the demand curve reflecting private benefits,

You plan to buy a $127,242 house. You have $30,313 to use as the down payment. The bank offers to loan you the remainder at 18% nominal interest compounded monthly. The term of the loan is 20 years. What is your equal monthly loan payment
Answer: $1,495.92
Explanation:
The amount you plan to borrow from the bank is:
= Cost of house - down payment
= 127,242 - 30,313
= $96,929
The amount to be paid is constant and so is an annuity. The loan amount is the present value of this annuity.
Term = 20 * 12 = 240 months
Interest = 18% / 12 = 1.5% monthly
Present value of annuity = Annuity * ( 1 - (1 + rate) ^-number of periods) / rate
96,929 = Annuity * (1 - (1 + 1.5%) ⁻²⁴⁰) / 1.5%
96,929 = Annuity * 64.79573209
Annuity = 96,929 / 64.79573209
= $1,495.92

Suppose that the income tax rate is reduced by the federal government and simultaneously a recession hits causing the economy to move below its potential output, this will:
Answer:
Raise both the cyclical and structural deficits
Explanation:
During economic downturn the cyclical deficit will rise, leading to rise in already structural deficit of federal government. The Structural deficit arises when government continue to spend more than its revenue, and thus cyclical deficit will add upward pressure in structural deficit.
Therefore there will be Raise in both the cyclical and structural deficits
A stock has a beta of 1.28, the expected return on the market is 12 percent, and the risk-free rate is 4.5 percent. What must the expected return on this stock be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
Expected return on stock =14.1 0%
Explanation:
The Capital Asset pricing Model (CAPM) can be used to determined the expected return on the stock.
According to the Capital Asset pricing Model the expected return on stock is dependent on the level of reaction of the the stock to changes in the return on a market portfolio.
These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.
Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)
Rf-risk-free rate (treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market, Ke-return on stock
Using this model, we can work out the return on stock as follows:
DATA
Ke-?
Rf- 4.5%
β-1.2 8
Rm- 12%
Ke = 4.5% + 1.28× (12-4.5)%=14.1 0%
Expected return on stock =14.1 0%
In 2019, Dan transferred 5-year property to Fleck Corp. in a tax-deferred Section 351 transaction. Fleck took Dan's adjusted basis in the property. Dan originally placed the depreciable property in service in 2017. What year of the depreciation schedule will Fleck use to depreciate the property
Answer:
The property will be depreciated using the remaining 3 years of its life after the tax-free incorporation transfer year. This is because Dan had already depreciated the property for 2 years before the transfer.
Explanation:
Sec. 351 allows a tax-free incorporation transfer if certain requirements are met, including that the property must be transferred to Fleck Corporation by Dan in exchange for stock in Fleck Corporation, and, immediately after the exchange, the Fleck Corporation is in control.
The common stock of Flavorful Teas has an expected return of 19.65 percent. The return on the market is 14.5 percent and the risk-free rate of return is 4.2 percent. What is the beta of this stock?
Answer:
beta= 1.5
Explanation:
The common stock of flavorful tea has an expected return of 19.65%
The return on the market is 14.5%
The risk-free rate is 4.2%
Therefore, the beta of the stock can be calculated as follows
Required return= Risk free rate+beta(market rate-risk free rate)
19.65%= 4.2%+beta(14.5%-4.2%)
19.65%= 4.2% + 14.5beta-4.2beta
19.65%= 4.2% + 10.3beta
19.65%-4.2%= 10.3beta
15.45%= 10.3beta
beta= 15.45/10.3
beta= 1.5
Hence the beta of this stock is 1.5
Assume that investors have recently become more risk averse, so the market risk premium has increased. Also, assume that the risk-free rate and expected inflation have not changed. Which of the following is most likely to occur?a. The required rate of return will decline for stocks whose betas are less than 1.0 b. The required rate of return on the market, rm, will not change as a result of these changes c. The required rate of return for each individual stock in the market will increase by an amount equal to the increase in the market risk d. The required rate of return on a riskless bond will decline. e. The required rate of return for an average stock will increase by an amount equal to the increase in the market risk premium.
Answer: e. The required rate of return for an average stock will increase by an amount equal to the increase in the market risk premium.
Explanation:
The market risk premium is the interest rate over the risk-free rate that investors will be compensated with for taking on the risk. Returns consist of both the risk-free rate and a premium charged for risk.
If investors become more risk averse, they will have to be compensated for what they view as riskier investments by increasing the premium being given to them.
Should this happen, the return that they will require will therefore increase by the same amount that the premium has increased.
An investment adviser representative's friend provides him with a list of 10 prospective clients. The representative agrees to pay his friend a referral fee for each person on the list that opens an account with the adviser. Which statement is TRUE
Answer: C. The arrangement is permitted only if it is in writing between the investment adviser and the friend and the arrangement is disclosed in writing to any customer opening an account
Explanation:
The friend in this case will be ruled to be a Solicitor under SEC Rules as they are referring clients to the Investment Adviser for a fee.
As such this business relationship between the friend and the Investment Adviser representative will fall under SEC Rule 206(4)-3 Cash payments for client solicitations. This rule makes it clear amongst other things that the investment adviser will have to prepare a written disclosure document which will inform any customer opening an account of the agreement between the adviser and his friend.
On July 1, Shady Creek Resort borrowed $250,000 cash by signing a 10-year, 8% installment note requiring equal payments each June 30 of $37,258. What amount of interest expense will be included in the first annual payment
Answer:
Interest expense = $20,000
Explanation:
Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.
The annual installment is computed as follows:
Annual installment= Loan amount/annuity factor
Annual installment is already given as = 37,258 (already given)
Interest payment = interest rate × Loan balance at the beginning of the year
DATA
Interest rate = 8%
Loan balance at the beginning of the year = $250,000
Interest expense = 8%× 250,000 = $20000
Principal paid = Annual installment - Interest = 37,258-20,000 = 17,258 (this is not required but to explain the concept)
Interest expense = $20,000
Lilliput is a country that has closed borders and does not import or export any goods or services; hence, they do not worry about trade with other countries.
Total spending for the federal government of Lilliput for the last fiscal year was $1.06 billion. The country collected $1.05 billion in taxes during this same fiscal year. Assume government transfers were zero. Based on this information, what is Lilliput's budget balance? In the last fiscal year, Lilliput was running:______.
a. a budget surplus.
b. a balanced budget.
c. a budget deficit.
Answer: budget deficit
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the total spending for the federal government of Lilliput for the last fiscal year was $1.06 billion and that the country collected $1.05 billion in taxes during this same fiscal year.
Since the expenditure of $1.06 billion is more than the revenue of $1.05 billion, this show that there was a budget deficit.
Suppose you invest equal amounts in a portfolio with an expected return of 16% and a standard deviation of returns of 18% and a risk-free asset with an interest rate of 4%. Calculate the expected return on the resulting portfolio. Group of answer choices
Answer: 10%
Explanation:
You invest equal amounts in a portfolio yielding 16% and a risk-free asset yielding 4%.
The expected return will be a weighted average of these two;
= (Weight of the Portfolio * Portfolio return) + (Weight of the Portfolio * risk-free rate)
= (0.5 * 16%) + (0.5 * 4%)
= 8% + 2%
= 10%
Consider two bonds, a 3-year bond paying an annual coupon of 5%, and a 20-year bond, also with an annual coupon of 5%. Both bonds currently sell at par value. Now suppose that interest rates rise and the yield to maturity of the two bonds increases to 8%. a. What is the new price of the 3-year bond?
Answer:
$922.69
Explanation:
The price of the 3-year bond can be computed using the below bond price formula:
Price=face value/(1+r)^n+coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n)/r
face value is $1000
r is the new interest rate of 8%
n is the number of annual coupons the bond would pay which is 3
coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*5%=$50
price=1000/(1+8%)^3+50*(1-(1+8%)^-3)/8%
price of 3-year bond=$922.69
An asset for drilling was purchased and placed in service by a petroleum production company. Its cost basis is $60,000,and it has an estimated MV of $12,000 at the end of an estimated useful life of 14 years. Compute the depreciationamount in the thirdyear and the BV at the end of the fifth year of life by each of these methods:
Answer:
straight line depreciation:
depreciation expense per year, the same for every year = ($60,000 - $12,000) / 14 = $3,428.57
book value end of year 1 = $56,571.43
book value end of year 2 = $53,142.86
book value end of year 3 = $49,714.29
book value end of year 4 = $46,285.72
book value end of year 5 = $42,857.15
double declining balance:
deprecation expense year 1 = 2 x 1/14 x $60,000 = $8,571.43
book value end of year 1 = $51,428.57
deprecation expense year 2 = 2 x 1/14 x $51,428.57 = $7,346.94
book value end of year 2 = $44,081.63
deprecation expense year 3 = 2 x 1/14 x $44,081.63 = $6,297.38
book value end of year 3 = $37,784.25
deprecation expense year 4 = 2 x 1/14 x $37,784.25 = $5,397.75
book value end of year 4 = $32,386.50
deprecation expense year 5 = 2 x 1/14 x $32,386.50 = $4,626.64
book value end of year 5 = $27,759.86
sum of digits:
depreciable value = $60,000 - $12,000 = $48,000
total sum of digits = 120 years
deprecation expense year 1 = $48,000 x 15/120 = $6,000
book value end of year 1 = $54,000
deprecation expense year 2 = $48,000 x 14/120 = $5,600
book value end of year 2 = $48,400
deprecation expense year 3 = $48,000 x 13/120 = $5,200
book value end of year 3 = $43,200
deprecation expense year 4 = $48,000 x 12/120 = $4,800
book value end of year 4 = $38,400
deprecation expense year 5 = $48,000 x 11/120 = $4,400
book value end of year 5 = $34,000

A company has established 7 pounds of Material J at $2 per pound as the standard for the material in its Product Z. The company has just produced 1,000 units of this product, using 7,200 pounds of Material J that cost $13,080. The direct materials quantity variance is:
Answer:
-$400 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of direct materials quantity variance is shown below:-
Direct material quantity variance = (Standard Quantity × Standard Price) - (Actual quantity × Standard price)
= (1,000 × 7 × $2) - (7,200 × $2)
= $14,000 - $14,400
= -$400 unfavorable
Therefore for computing the direct material quantity variance we simply applied the above formula.

A firm has a market value equal to its book value. Currently, the firm has excess cash of $1,200 and other assets of $7,800. Equity is worth $9,000. The firm has 600 shares of stock outstanding and net income of $760. What will the new earnings per share be if the firm uses its excess cash to complete a stock repurchase?
Answer: $1.46
Explanation:
Earnings per share = Net Income/Number of shares
Value of shares at current = 9,000/600
= $15 a share
Excess cash is $1,200.
Using that, the following number shares can be purchases;
= 1,200/15
= 80 shares
New number of shares = 600 - 80
= 520 shares
New EPS
= 760/520
= $1.46
