Answer:
I could display the qualities of a visionary leader by offering a coherent vision for the future, and a good economic plan.
Explanation:
A visionary leader in such a dire situation would first of all show a guide to the people, would tell them that there is hope, and would explain to them why such hope still exists.
Such leader would also lay out an economic plan that can resolve, at least, some of the economic issues of the country, because it is true that no plan is perfect, and no government policy solves all problems by itself.

Monetary policy are policies taken by the central bank of a country to increase or reduce aggregate demand.
There are two types of monetary policy :
Expansionary monetary policy : these are polices taken in order to increase money supply. When money supply increases, aggregate demand increases. reducing interest rate and open market purchase are ways of carrying out expansionary monetary policy
Contractionary monetary policy : these are policies taken to reduce money supply. When money supply decreases, aggregate demand falls. Increasing interest rate and open market sales are ways of carrying out contractionary monetary policy
Goals of monetary policy include
financial market stability economic growth high employment price stabilityThe dual mandate of the Federal Reserve was birthed as a result of the stagflation of the 1970s. Stagflation is a period of high unemployment and high inflation levels

Remember only Income and expenses are accounted in an income statement.
You are a lobbyist hired by a less developed country to try to prevent a developed country from increasing trade barriers against labor-intensive manufactured imports such as textiles. Make your case, arguing from both developed and developing country perspectives, in terms of who gains and who loses.
Answer:
The answer is explained below in separate headings.
Explanation:
Resources available such as land, labour, capital and entrepreneurship are different for each country. Some may have more while others might have less. The large (developed) countries tend to be more resourceful than those small (developing) countries.
Developed Country
In this case, the capital available at the developed country's disposal helps them export manufactured goods and import labour-intensive goods from developing country with relative ease in order to produce and profit from the market.
Developing Country
From their point of view, the potential to trade outward results in the enhancement in the country's growth and efficiency. This ultimately creates an opportunity for the consumers to benefit from the variety of goods available to choose from and workers of higher incomes.
Hence, if the trade barriers are increased then it would affect both the country's in terms of profit. However, the effect would be more adverse for developing country rather than for a developed country.
Rooney Company, which sells electric razors, had $350,000 of cost of goods sold during the month of June. The company projects a 5 percent increase in cost of goods sold during July. The inventory balance as of June 30 is $28,000, and the desired ending inventory balance for July is $29,000. Rooney pays cash to settle 75 percent of its purchases on account during the month of purchase and pays the remaining 25 percent in the month following the purchase. The accounts payable balance as of June 30 was $39,000.
Required:
a. Determine the amount of purchases budgeted for July.
b. Determine the amount of cash payments budgeted for inventory purchases in July.
Answer:
A. $368,500
B. $276,375
Explanation:
A. Calculation to determine the amount of purchases budgeted for July
Using this formula
Budgeted purchase = Cost of goods sold + Ending inventory - Beginning inventory
Let plug in the formula
Budgeted purchase=$350*000*1.05 + $29,000 - $28,000
Budgeted purchase=$367,500+$29,000-$28,000
Budgeted purchase=$368,500
Therefore the amount of purchases budgeted for July is $368,500
b. Calculation to Determine the amount of cash payments budgeted for inventory
Cash payment = $368,500*75%
Cash payment= $276,375
Therefore the amount of cash payments budgeted for inventory is $276,375

Fees earned $942,135 Office expense 216,690 Miscellaneous expense 18,845 Wages expense 452,225 Accounts payable 23,555 Accounts receivable 65,950 Cash 252,875 Common stock 135,000 Land 301,000 Supplies 11,305 Cash dividends of $35,800 were paid during the year. Retained earnings as of June 1, 20Y5, were $254,000. Prepare the balance sheet as of May 31, 20Y6. When entering assets, enter them in order of liquidity.
Answer and Explanation:
The preparation of the balance sheet as on May 31, 20Y6 is as follows:
Assets
Cash $252,875
Accounts receivable $65,950
Supplies $11,305
Land $301,000
Total Assets $631,130
Liabilities
Accounts payable $23,555
Common Stock $135,000
Retained earnings (see working below) $472,575
Total Liabilities $631,130
Working note
For retained earnings first determine the net loss or net income as the case may be
= Fees earned - office expense - miscellaneous expense - wages expense
= $942,135 - $216,690 - $18,845 - $452,225
= $254,375
Now the ending retained earning balance is
= opening retained earning balance + net income - dividend paid
= $254,000 + $254,375 - $35,800
= $472,575

The following is a partially completed lower section of a departmental expense allocation spreadsheet for Brickland. It reports the total amounts of direct and indirect expenses for the four departments. Purchasing department expenses are allocated to the operating departments on the basis of purchase orders. Maintenance department expenses are allocated based on square footage. Compute the amount of Purchasing department expense to be allocated to Fabrication. Purchasing Maintenance Fabrication Assembly Operating costs $ 42,000 $ 24,000 $ 106,000 $ 72,000 No. of purchase orders 15 5 Sq. ft. of space 3,800 2,200
Answer:
The amount of Purchasing department expense to be allocated to Fabrication is $31,500.
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question as follows:
Purchasing Maintenance Fabrication Assembly
Operating costs $42,000 $24,000 $106,000 $72,000
No. of purchase orders 15 5
Sq. ft. of space 3,800 2,200
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
Amount allocated to Fabrication = Purchasing department expense * (No. of purchase orders by Fabrication / (No. of purchase orders by Fabrication + No. of purchase orders by Assembly)) = $42,000 * (15 / (15 + 5)) = $31,500
Therefore, the amount of Purchasing department expense to be allocated to Fabrication is $31,500.
Dobler Company uses a periodic inventory system. Details for the inventory account for the month of January 2022 are as follows: Units Per unit price Total Balance, 1/1/2022 300 $5 $1500 Purchase, 1/15/2022 150 ..5.3 795 Purchase, 1/28/2022 150 ..5.5 825 An end of the month (1/31/2022) inventory showed that 240 units were on hand. If the company uses LIFO, what is the value of the ending inventory
Answer:
$2,405
Explanation:
LIFO assumes that the units to arrive last will be sold first. Therefore the value of ending inventory is based on the earlier (old) prices.
Ending Inventory = 240 units x $5 = $2,405
Consider each situation for Kathy, Inc. below independently.
Kathy, Inc. issued 10,000 shares of its $25 par common stock (current fair value of common is $35 per share) for a large tract of land. The land was appraised at $400,000.
Kathy already had 500,000 shares of common stock outstanding.
Kathy, Inc. issued 2,000 shares of $10 par Class A common stock at $12 and 100 shares of no-par Class B common stock at $20.
Required:
a. At what amount should land be recorded?
b. What is the total amount that should be recorded for additional paid-in capital from the second situation?
Answer:
Kathy, inc.
a. The land should be recorded initially at $250,000. This is what it caused the company to acquire it in exchange for common stock.
b. The total amount that should be recorded for additional paid-in capital from the second situation is:
= $4,000.
Explanation:
Data and Calculations
a. Common stock issued for land = 10,000
Par value of common stock = $25
Market value of common stock = $35
Appraised value of land = $400,000
Value of land = $250,000 ($25 * 10,000)
b. Outstanding common stock = 500,000 shares
New issue of 2,000 $10 par Class A common stock at $12 = $24,000
New issue of 100 shares of no-par Class B common stock at $20 = $2,000
Total amount received = $26,000
Common stock value:
2,000 at $10 = $20,000
Additional paid-in capital = $4,000 ($24,000 - $20,000)

You are considering two different methods for constructing a new warehouse site. The first method would use prefabricated building segments, would have an initial cost of $6.5 million, would have annual maintenance costs of $150,000, and would last for 25 years. The second alternative would employ a new carbon-fibre panel technology, would have an initial cost of $8.2 million, would have maintenance costs of $650,000 every ten years, and is expected to last 40 years. Both buildings would be in CCA Class 1 (at a rate of 4 percent) and it is expected that each would have a salvage value equivalent to 25 percent of its construction cost at the end of its useful life. The discount rate the firm uses in evaluating projects is 11 percent. The tax rate is 35 percent. What is the annual cost for each option? (Enter the answers in dollars. Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round the final answers to 2 decimal places. Negative answers should be indicated by a minus sign.)

Drew Chow has an annual salary of $110,250. He is married with no dependents. The married exemption for his state is $4,000. He pays $2.656.25 in state income taxes. What is the state income tax rate?
Answer: 2.5%
Explanation:
Drew salary is $110,250 and he gets a married exception of $4,000.
This reduces the taxable income to:
= 110,250 - 4,000
= $106,250
He pays $2,656.25 in taxes on that taxable income so the income tax rate can be found as:
106,250 * tax rate = 2,656.25
Tax rate = 2,656.25 / 106,250
= 2.5%
After successfully completing your corporate finance class, you feel the next challenge ahead is to serve on the board of directors of Schenkel Enterprises. Unfortunately, you will be the only individual voting for you. a.If the company has 430,000 shares outstanding and the stock currently sells for $45, how much will it cost you to buy a seat if the company uses straight voting
Answer:
$9,675,045
Explanation:
In order to win the election of the board of directors, voting powers should have half a of the voting power and one vote.
Calculating the cost incurred to buy the voting power:
Total cost = [Number of shares / 2 + 1] * Stock price
Total cost = [430,000/2 + 1] * $45
Total cost = 215,001 * $45
Total cost = $9,675,045
So, it will cost one $9,675,045 to buy a seat if the company uses straight voting.
Consider a hypothetical economy where there are no taxes and no international trade. Households spend $0.50 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.50. If there are no taxes and no international trade, the oversimplified multiplier for this economy is __________
Suppose that the price level in our economy remains the same and that there is still no international trade. Now, however, the government decides to implement an income tax of 5% on each dollar of income. The MPC and MPS, however, remain the same as before. In this case, after accounting for the impact of taxes, the multiplier in this economy is ___________, and a $200 billion decrease in investment spending will lead to a billion in output.
Answer:
i) 2
ii) 1.9
iii) $200 billion decrease in investment will lead to a $380 billion decrease in output
Explanation:
i) Determine the oversimplified multiplier for this economy
MPC value of the economy = 0.5
spending multiplier = 1 - / 1 - MPC VALUE )
∴ oversimplified multiplier = 1 / 0.5 = 2
ii) Given that the Government implement an income tax of 5%
The Multiplier of the economy = 1 / [ 1 - MPC (1-t) ]
= 1 / [ 1 - 0.5(1-0.05 )]
= 1 / ( 1 - 0.475 ) = 1.9
iii) $200 billion decrease in investment will lead to a $380 billion decrease in output
total change in output = 1.9 * 200 =$ 380
The following labor standards have been established for a particular product: Standard labor hours per unit of output 4.3 hours Standard labor rate $ 17.80 per hour The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual hours worked 6,300 hours Actual total labor cost $ 112,770 Actual output 1,400 units Required: a. What is the labor rate variance for the month
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
With regards to the above, labor rate variance is computed as;
Direct labor rate variance = (Standard rate - Actual rate) × Actual quantity
Given that;
Standard labor rate per hour = $17.8
Actual hours worked = 6,300
Actual total labor cost = $112,770
Actual rate = $112,770/6,300 = $17.9
Therefore,
Direct labor rate variance = ($17.8 - $17.9) × 6,300
= $630 unfavourable

Answer:
The inventory of surgical equipment would be valued at $204.
Explanation:
The data given in the question are first sorted as follows:
Surgical Surgical Rehab Rehab
Equipment Supplies Equipment Supplies
Selling price $ 325 $ 185 $ 405 $ 230
Cost 235 155 315 227
Replacement cost 305 145 300 223
Costs to sell 56 18 38 36
Normal gross profit ratio 20 % 20 % 20 % 30 %
The value of the inventory of surgical equipment can now be calculated as follows:
Ceiling = Net realizable value = Selling price - Costs to sell = $325 - $56 = $269
Floor = Net realizable value - Normal gross profit ratio = $269 - (325 * 20%) = $204
Replacement cost = $305
Market is the middle value of ceiling, floor and replacement cost.
Market value = Flor $204
Cost = $235
Lower of cost or market = $204
Therefore, the inventory of surgical equipment would be valued at $204.
Assume that as of August 1, 3,000 units of flat panel displays have been produced and sold during the current year. Analysis of the domestic market indicates that 2,000 additional units are expected to be sold during the remainder of the year at the normal product price determined under the product cost method. On August 3, Crystal Displays Inc. received an offer from Maple Leaf Visual Inc. for 800 units of flat panel displays at $225 each.

After a major earthquake, the San Francisco Opera Company is offering zero coupon bonds to fund the needed structural repairs to its historic building. Buster Norton is considering the purchase of several of these bonds. The bonds have a face value of $2,000 and are scheduled to mature in 10 years. Similar bonds in the market have an annual YTM of 12 percent. If Mr. Norton purchases three of these bonds today, how much money will he receive 10 years from today at maturity
Answer:
Buster Norton and the Bonds of San Francisco Opera Company
If Mr. Norton purchases three of these bonds today, in 10 years from today at maturity, he will receive:
= $6,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Face value of each zero coupon bond purchased = $2,000
Number of bonds purchased by Norton = 3
Value of bond investments at maturity = $6,000 ($2,000 * 3)
Maturity period of the San Francisco Opera Company bonds = 10 years
Annual Yield to Maturity of similar bonds in the market = 12%
From an online financial calculator:
Present value of bonds = $1,932 (with each as $644 ($1,932/3))
N (# of periods) 10
I/Y (Interest per year) 12
PMT (Periodic Payment) 0
FV (Future Value) -6000
Results
PV = $1,931.84
Total Interest $4,068.16

Explanation:
If, at the present output level, marginal revenue is $50 and marginal cost is $35, the purely competitive firm Group of answer choices should increase output to maximize its profit or minimize its loss. should reduce output to maximize its profit or minimize its loss. should increase its price to maximize its profit or minimize its loss. should stay at its current output to maximize its profit or minimize its loss.
Answer: should reduce output to maximize its profit or minimize its loss
Explanation:
Since we are given the information that at the present output level, the marginal revenue is $50 and the marginal cost is $35, this implies that the marginal revenue is more than the marginal cost, which simply means that there'll be a positive marginal profit.
In such scenario, therefore, the purely competitive firm should reduce output to maximize its profit or minimize its loss.
Multiple Choice Question Mahan Corporation expects total sales to increase by 20% over the next year. The corporation has no spare capacity and must increase plant and equipment by 20%. The corporation currently has $100,000 in assets, $40,000 in debt, and $60,000 in equity. The corporation desires to maintain the debt-equity ratio. The corporation's debt will be _____. Multiple choice question. $72,000 $40,000 $60,000 $48,000
Answer:
$48,000
Explanation:
The computation of the corporation debt is shown below:
Since the asset is increased by 20%
The present asset is $100,000
ANd, the increased assets is
= $100,000 + $100,000 × 0.20
= $100,000 + $20,000
= $120,000
Now the debt is
= $120,000 × 0.4
= $48,000
hence, the last option is correct
