How does international trade affect the lives of U.S. citizens?
Answer:
The United States is the world's largest economy and the largest exporter and importer of goods and services. Trade is critical to America's prosperity - fueling economic growth, supporting good jobs at home, raising living standards and helping Americans provide for their families with affordable goods and services.
In 2017, the U.S. was the world's largest goods and services trading nation, with exports of goods and services totaling $2.35 trillion.
• U.S. goods and services trade (exports plus imports) totaled $5.3 trillion during 2017, up 6.5% ($321 billion) from 2016, and up 31% from 2007. U.S. goods trade totaled $3.9 trillion and U.S. services trade totaled $1.3 trillion.
• Agricultural goods accounted for $264 billion in total (two way) U.S. trade during 2017. Exports were $143 billion; Imports $121 billion; and the trade surplus was $22 billion.
• Manufacturing (a subcategory of goods trade) accounted for $3.3 trillion in total (two way) U.S. trade during 2017, up 5.3% from 2016, and up 24% from 2007.
• Services accounted for $1.3 trillion in total (two way) U.S. trade during 2017, up 5.6% from 2016, and up 56% from 2007. The United States is the largest services trading country in the world.
Trade expansion benefits families and businesses by:
• Supporting more productive, higher paying jobs in our export sectors
• Expanding the variety of products for purchase by consumers and business
• Encouraging investment and more rapid economic growth
Trade keeps our economy open, dynamic, and competitive, and helps ensure that America continues to be the best place in the world to do business.

Indiana Co. began a construction project in 2018 with a contract price of $161 million to be received when the project is completed in 2020. During 2018, Indiana incurred $33 million of costs and estimates an additional $89 million of costs to complete the project. Indiana recognizes revenue over time and for this project recognizes revenue over time according to the percentage of the project that has been completed. Suppose that, in 2019, Indiana incurred additional costs of $66 million and estimated an additional $53 million in costs to complete the project. Indiana:________
a. Recognized $3.75 million loss on the project in 2022.
b. Recognized $5.25 million gross profit on the project in 2022.
c. Recognized $7.5 million gross profit on the project in 2022.
d. Recognized $1.5 million loss on the project in 2022.
Answer:
Recognized $3.75 million loss on the project in 2017.
Explanation:
Calculation for what Indiana Co. Recognized
First step is to calculate the Percentage of contract is completed in 2019
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=($33 million+$66 million )/($33 million+$66 million + $53 million)
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=$96 million/$149 million
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=0.64429*100
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=64.43%
Second step is to calculate The estimated gross profit
Estimated gross profit=$161 million-$149 million
Estimated gross profit=$12 million
Fourth step is to calculate gross profit to date
Gross profit to date=64.43%*161=103.7
gross profit to date=33 million / (33 + 89 million) * 161 million
gross profit to date=33 million/122 million* 161 million
gross profit to date=43.54
= $44.01 million in revenue in 2021 (4)
Now let calculate the amount recognized

Which of these is a group of producers working together to raise prices and
increase profits?
A. defense contractors
B. a cartel
C. a trading bloc
D. a labor union
Answer:
B. a cartel
Explanation:
A cartel is a group of independent producers who collude to promote and protect their trade interests. Large producers in the same industry form cartels to manipulate supply and fix prices. Through the cartel, the large producers set prices that guarantee maximum profits for their members. The cartel eliminates price competition among the major producers in the industry.
Assume that you live in California and are on vacation, traveling by car from California to Texas. You are injured in a motel room when the bed on which you are sleeping collapses, causing you to fall to the floor. You suffer substantial back and leg injuries, requiring many medical treatments and causing you to miss work for 15 weeks. Your medical bills total $50,000 and your lost wages total $15,000. You intend to sue the owner of the Texas motel.
Required:
a. Can you bring your case in federal court? Why or why not?
b. Can you commence the case in California? What additional information might you need to answer this question?
c. At the end of the trial, the jury awards you $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages). After the trial, the attorney for the hotel approaches and offers to settle the case for $50,000. Should you consider accepting the settlement? Why or why not?
Answer:
a. No. A state court will do a better job in this case because it exercises unlimited jurisdiction. Moreover, you can only bring your case to a federal court if the amount of your claim is up to $75,000 or the issue is exclusive to the federal court. This is not the case here.
b. Yes and No. We need some additional information about the accident location to help answer this question definitively.
c. No. You should not consider accepting the offered settlement. The jury award is meant to pay for your medical bills and also to help you recover financially as though the accident did not happen in the first place. Accepting any lesser amount after the judgment is rendered is in bad taste. The other party should have negotiated to settle out of court before the final judgment was rendered. But it did not. So, go with the jury award.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Missed work for 15 weeks
Total medical bills incurred = $50,000
Total lost wages incurred = $15,000
Jury award = $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages)
Settlement offer = $50,000

Elliot, Inc., uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior. The company observed that at 20,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $10.50 per hour. When activity jumped to 24,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $9.75. On the basis of this information, the company's fixed maintenance costs were:
Answer:
$90,000
Explanation:
At the activity level of 20,000 machine hours:
total maintenance costs=20,000* $10.50=$210,000
At the activity level of 24,000 machine hours:
total maintenance costs=24,000*$9.75=$234,000
variable maintenance cost per hour=(total maintenance costs at higher activity level-total maintenance costs at lower activity level)/(higher activity level-lower activity level)
variable maintenance cost per hour=($234,000-$210,000)/(24000-20000)
variable maintenance cost per unit=$6
Using the higher activity level data:
total cost=fixed cost+(variable maintenance cost per unit*number of hours)
$234,000=fixed cost+($6*24000)
234,000=fixed cost+$144,000
fixed cost=$234,000-$144,000
fixed cost=$90,000
Exercise 1-16 Cost Classifications for Decision Making [LO1-5] Warner Corporation purchased a machine 7 years ago for $383,000 when it launched product P50. Unfortunately, this machine has broken down and cannot be repaired. The machine could be replaced by a new model 300 machine costing $373,650 or by a new model 200 machine costing $342,000. Management has decided to buy the model 200 machine. It has less capacity than the model 300 machine, but its capacity is sufficient to continue making product P50. Management also considered, but rejected, the alternative of dropping product P50 and not replacing the old machine. If that were done, the $342,000 invested in the new machine could instead have been invested in a project that would have returned a total of $445,600. Required: 1. What is the total differential cost regarding the decision to buy the model 200 machine rather than the model 300 machine
Answer:
Missing word "2. What is the total sunk cost regarding the decision to buy the model 200 machine rather than the model 300 machine? 3. What is the total opportunity cost regarding the decision to invest in the model 200 machine?"
1. Differential cost of buying model 200 machine = Cost of model 200 machine - Cost of model 300 machine
= $342,000 - $373,650
= -$31,650
We'll have a savings of $31,650 if model 200 is purchased rather than model 300
2. $383,000 (The Cost of existing machine). Note: $383,000 is a sunk cost since it has already been incurred.
3. Opportunity cost is the total return of the project if the money was invested elsewhere. The Opportunity cost of investing in model 200 machine is $445,600 (Returns from the alternate project)
a) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $111,111 received every year. The first cash flow occurs in year 1. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate. b) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $222,222 received every second year. The first cash flow occurs in year 2. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate. c) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $333,333 received every third year. The first cash flow occurs in year 3. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.
Answer:
a) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $111,111 received every year. The first cash flow occurs in year 1. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.
PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $111,111 / 11% = $1,010,100
b) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $222,222 received every second year. The first cash flow occurs in year 2. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.
PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $222,222 / (11% x 2) = $1,010,100
c) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $333,333 received every third year. The first cash flow occurs in year 3. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.
PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $333,333 / (11% x 3) = $1,010,100
Explanation:
Since the interest rate is simple, not compounded, the three perpetuities have the same present value.
A firm has total assets of $162,000, long-term debt of $46,000, stockholders' equity of $95,000, and current liabilities of $21,000. The dividend payout ratio is 60 percent and the profit margin is 8 percent. Assume all assets and current liabilities change spontaneously with sales and the firm is currently operating at full capacity. What is the external financing need if the current sales of $150,000 are projected to increase by 10 percent
Answer:
$8,820
Explanation:
The percentage of sales formula for computing the funding requirement is stated thus:
AFN = (A/S) x (Δ Sales) - (L/S) x (Δ Sales) - (PM x FS x retention ratio)
AFN=additional funds=unknown
A-current level of total assets=$162,000
S- current sales $150,000
=Δ Sales=Change in sales=increase in sales=$150,000*10%=$15000
L-spontaneous liabilities=current liabilities=$21,000
PM-profit margin =8%
retention ratio=1-dividend payout ratio=1-60%=40%
FS-forecast sales =$150,000+$15000=$165,000
AFN =($162,000/$150,000)*$15000))-($21,000/$150,000)*$15000-(8%*$165,000*40%)
AFN =$16,200-$2,100-$5280
AFN=$8,820

Suppose Bob and Cho form a cartel and behave as a monopolist. The profit-maximizing __________price isper gallon, and the total output is__________gallons. As part of their cartel agreement, Bob and Cho agree to split production equally. Therefore, Bob's profit is__________, and Cho's profit is____________.
Suppose that Bob and Cho have been successfully operating as a cartel. They each charge the monopoly price and sell half of the monopoly quantity. Then one night before going to sleep, Bob says to himself, "Cho and I aren't the best of friends anyway. If I increase my production to 40 gallons more than the cartel amount, I can increase my profit even though her profit goes down. I will do that starting tomorrow."
After Bob implements his new plan, the price of water ________ to__________per gallon. Given Cho and Bob's production levels, Bob's profit becomes________ and Cho's profit becomes___________. Because Bob has deviated from the cartel agreement and increased his output of water to 40 gallons more than the cartel amount, Cho decides that she will also increase her production to 40 gallons more than the cartel amount. After Cho increases her production, Bob's profit becomes__________, Cho's profit becomes_________, and total profit (the sum of the profits of Bob and Cho) is now____________.
Answer:
Suppose Bob and Cho form a cartel and behave as a monopolist. The profit-maximizing price is 2.10 per gallon, and the total output is 240 gallons. As part of their cartel agreement, Bob and Cho agree to split production equally. Therefore, Bob's profit is $252 and Cho's profit is $252.

After Bob implements his new plan, the price of water decreases to 1.75 per gallon. Given Cho and Bob's production levels, Bob's profit becomes 280 and Cho's profit becomes 210 . Because Bob has deviated from the cartel agreement and increased his output of water to 40 gallons more than the cartel amount, Cho decides that she will also increase her production to 40 gallons more than the cartel amount. After Cho increases her production, Bob's profit becomes 224 , Cho's profit becomes 224 , and total profit (the sum of the profits of Bob and Cho) is now 448.

Explanation:
The Pioneer Company has provided the following account balances: Cash $39,800; Short-term investments $5,800; Accounts receivable $7,800; Supplies $57,000; Long-term notes receivable $3,800; Equipment $105,000; Factory Building $198,000; Intangible assets $7,800; Accounts payable $28,200; Accrued liabilities payable $3,100; Short-term notes payable $17,600; Long-term notes payable $101,000; Common stock $198,000; Retained earnings $77,100. What are Pioneer's total current assets
Answer:
Pioneer's total current assets are $110,400.
Explanation:
Pioneer's total current assets can be calculated using the following formula:
Current assets = Cash + Short-term investments + Accounts receivable + Supplies ............... (1)
Where;
Cash = $39,800
Short-term investments = $5,800
Accounts receivable = $7,800
Supplies = $57,000
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Current assets = $39,800 + $5,800 + $7,800 + $57,000 = $110,400

Peach Company uses a weighted-average process-costing system. Company records disclosed that the firm completed 84,000 units during the month and had 18,700 units in process at month-end, 50% complete. Conversion costs associated with the beginning work-in-process inventory amounted to $248,000, and amounts that relate to the current month totaled $990,000. If conversion is incurred uniformly throughout manufacturing, Peach's equivalent-unit cost is:
Answer:
the equivalent unit cost is $13.26
Explanation:
The computation of the equivalent unit cost is shown below:
Calculation of Peach Equivalent-unit cost is
= Total Cost ÷ Units
= ($990,000 + $248,000) ÷ (84,000 units + (18,700 units × 50% completion)
= ($1,238,000) ÷ (93,350 units)
= $13.26 per unit
Hence, the equivalent unit cost is $13.26

Return to questionItem 4 Required information Skip to question Retained earnings at the beginning of the period was $300. During the period, Kilgore Company earned revenue of $1,100 and incurred expenses of $400. Assuming dividends paid to stockholders were $200, the ending balance in retained earnings must have been:
Answer:
$800
Explanation:
The first task here is to determine the amount of net income recognized in the year which is the earned revenue minus incurred expenses as shown thus:
net income=earned revenue-incurred expenses
earned revenue= $1,100
incurred expenses=$400
net income=$1,100-$400=$700
retained earnings for the period=net income-dividends paid
dividends paid=$200

Baxter Inc. has a target capital structure of $30 million debt, $15 million preferred stock, and $55 million common equity. The company's after-tax cost of debt is 7%, its cost of preferred stock is 11%, its cost of retained earnings is 15%, and its cost of new common stock is 16%. The company stock has a beta of 1.5 and the company's marginal tax rate is 35%. What is the company's weighted average cost of capital if retained earnings are used to fund the common equity portion
Answer:
12%
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of Capital = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Preferred Stock * Cost of Preferred Stock + Weight of Debt * Cost of Debt
Particluars Weights (given) Cost Weights*Cost
Common stock 55% or 0.55 16% = 8.8 %
Debt 30 % or 0.30 7% (after tax) = 2.1 %

Suppose a company has a contract to construct a building for a total sales price of $60 million. The building will take an estimated three years to complete, with a total estimated cost of $50 million. If the company incurs costs of $20 million in Year 2, how much revenue and profit should be recognized in Year 2 if the percentage of completion method is used
Answer:
$24 million
Explanation:
During year 2, the percentage of completion = $20 million / $50 million = 40%.
Since the building advanced 40% during that year, then the company must recognize 40% of total contract price as revenue for this year = 40% x $60 million = $24 million.
The percentage of completion method is not cumulative, it is calculated on a year to year basis.
Lakeland Chemical manufactures a product called Zing. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process, and conversion activity occurs uniformly throughout production. The beginning work-in-process inventory is 60% complete with respect to conversion; the ending work-in-process inventory is 20% complete.
The following data pertain to May:
Units Work in process, May 1 15,000
Units started during May 60,000
Units completed and transferred out 68,000
Work in process, May 31 7,000 Total
Direct Materials Conversion Costs
Costs: Work in process, May 1 $ 41,250 $ 16,500 $ 24,750 Costs incurred during May 234,630 72,000 162,630 Totals $ 275,880 $ 88,500 $ 187,380 Using the weighted-average method of process costing, the cost per unit of conversion activity is:________.
a. $2.50.
b. $2.53.
c. $2.70.
d. $2.76.
Answer:
$2.38
Explanation:
Note : I have uploaded the full question below as an image
Step 1
Calculate the Equivalent units of production with respect to conversion costs
Units Completed and Transferred (81,000 x 100%) = 81,000
Plus Units in Ending Work In Process (9,000 x 20%) = 1,800
Total Equivalent Units = 82,800
Step 2
Calculate the Total Conversion Costs during the period
Total Conversion Costs = $197,380 (given)
Step 3
Calculate Cost per Equivalent Unit
Cost per Equivalent Unit = Total Cost ÷ Equivalent Units
= $197,380 ÷ 82,800
= $2.38
Organizations sometimes choose robust strategies in which they know they will have no regrets regardless of what takes place. This route makes sense when: Select one or more: a. quantitative odds can be ascribed b. feedback occurs c. qualitative outcomes described d. technology is important
Answer:
b. feedback occurs
c. qualitative outcomes
Explanation:
In the given scenario a business is willing to take robust challenge with resultant effect that does not bother them.
The only scenario where businesses are comfortable with this is when there is feedback and when only qualitative outcomes like interventions in the job.
When a business has constant feed back strategies change accordingly to meet business needs.
When only qualitative outcomes are important, volume of production does not matter

The statement "The courts ruled that the pay disparity between the sexes at Jaxon Corp. was illegal and ordered the company to remedy it. Jaxon Corp. cannot lower the wages of the higher-paid group in order to comply with the law" is true.
What is disparity?The disparity can be defined as a lack of equality or likeness, particularly in an unfair way: the widening discrepancy between the affluent and poor.
Inequalities in other parts of society, such as the legal system, education, academe, commercial institutions, and politics, are referred to as social disparities. Most of the time, the social discrepancies listed above are the result of other disparities, such as economic disparity, gender disparity, or racial disparity.
The courts determined that Jaxon Corp.'s wage inequality between the sexes was unconstitutional and ordered the corporation to correct it. To comply with the legislation, Jaxon Corp. cannot reduce the compensation of the higher-paid group. Therefore, the above statement is true.

b. Compute the total asset turnover ratio.
c. Compute the return on assets (investment).
Answer:
a. 9.15 times
b. 4.61 times
c. 31.52%
d. 1.08 times
e. 20.88 %
Explanation:
Note : I have attached the full question as image below.
Interest Coverage = Earnings Before Interest and tax ÷ Interest expense
= $85,100 ÷ $9,300
= 9.15 times
Fixed Charge Coverage = EBIT + Lease Payments ÷ Interest Payments + Lease Payments
= $85,100 + $11,700 ÷ $9,300 + $11,700
= 4.61 times
Profit margin = Operating Profit / Sales x 100
= $85,100 / $270,000 x 100
= 31.52%
Total asset turnover = Sales ÷ Total Assets
= $270,000 ÷ $249,000
= 1.08 times
Return on assets (investment) = Earning Before Interest after Tax / Total Assets x 100
= ($45,480 + $9,300 x 70%) / $249,000 x 100
= 20.88 %
You purchased a 5-year, 6% annual-coupon bond with $1,000 par value. The yield to maturity at the time of purchase was 4%. You sold the bond after one year, right after receiving the first coupon payment. The bond's yield to maturity was 3.4% when you sold it. What is your holding period return on the bond
Answer:
6.12%
Explanation:
the market value of the bond when you purchased it was:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.04⁵ = $821.93
PV of coupon payments = $60 x 4.4518 (PV annuity factor, 4%, 5 periods) = $267.11
initial investment = $1,089.04
after 1 year, you receive $60 +
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.034⁴ = $874.82
PV of coupon payments = $60 x 3.6818 (PV annuity factor, 3.4%, 4 periods) = $220.91
market price = $1,095.73
total holding return = ($1,095.73 + $60 - $1,089.04) / $1,089.04 = 6.12%
