Answer:
Beta is 2.25
Explanation:
The return total return on the stock can be computed using the holding period return stated below:
=Pi-Po+D/Po
Pi is the expected price of the bond at year end which is $117
Po is the initial stock price of $100
D is the dividend expected at year end
holding period return=($117-$100+$1)/$100=18.00%
In Capital Asset Pricing Model,expected return formula is as follows:
expected return=risk free rate+beta*market risk premium
18.00% =4.5%+Beta*6.0%
18.00%-4.5%=Beta*6.00%
13.500%=Beta *6.00%
Beta=13.500% /6.00%
Beta=2.25
The auditors are concerned that these practices are inadequate and that more secure alternatives should be explored. Management has expressed counter concerns about the high cost of purchasing new equipment and relocating its data center. Required: What risks currently exist that are of concern to the auditors
Answer:
Audit Risk
Explanation:
Auditors could be Internal or External auditors, however, they both perform similar function in accessing company financial statements or reports. If the auditors are unable to find out financial misstatement and flag the report as correct, meanwhile, the report in actual sense contain errors, it is termed Audit Risk. It comprises of three components which are Detection risk, Inherent Risk, and Control risk
An investor is considering the purchase of a residential rental property that has an asking price of $400,000. The property has four rental units that are expected to rent for $1,200 each per month. Operating expenses and vacancy allowances are expected to be 45% of gross income. An 5% interest only mortgage loan is available for 5 years at 100% of the purchase price. How much cash income will the investor receive each month of the first year after paying the monthly mortgage payment
Answer:
The answer is $973
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
A residential rental property asking price = $400,000
Property expected to rent = $1200
Operating expenses expected = 45%
Interest =5%
Mortgage loan available for =5 years
Purchase price =100%
Now, we find out the cash income the investor receive each month of the first year after paying the monthly mortgage payment
Thus
Rental income (1200*4 units)=$4800
Less: operating expenses (4800*45%)=$2160
The Net income per month=$2640
So,
Less:Monthly mortgage interest payment=$1667 [(400000*5%)
=20000/12=1667]
The Cash income =$973
Therefore the investor will receive $973 each month of the first year.

It is one of the methods of costing inventory. Others include LIFO, Weighted Average, and Specific Identification.
A business received an offer from an exporter for 10,000 units of product at $13.50 per unit. The acceptance of the offer will not affect normal production or domestic sales prices. The following data are available: Domestic unit sales price $21 Unit manufacturing costs: Variable 12 Fixed 5 What is the amount of the gain or loss from acceptance of the offer
Answer:
Effect on income= $15,000 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A business received an offer from an exporter for 10,000 units for $13.50 per unit.
Unit manufacturing costs:
Variable 12
Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.
Effect on income= number of units*unitary contribution margin
Effect on income= 10,000*(13.5 - 12)
Effect on income= $15,000 increase

On 12/31/X4, Zoom, LLC, reported a $55,500 loss on its books. The items included in the loss computation were $27,000 in sales revenue, $12,000 in qualified dividends, $19,000 in cost of goods sold, $47,000 in charitable contributions, $17,000 in employee wages, and $11,500 of rent expense. How much ordinary business income (loss) will Zoom report on its X4 return
Answer:Ordinary Business income loss =-$20,500.
Explanation:
Ordinary business Expenses are the expenses generally accepted according to the industry standards associated with running of a business.
Here, the ordinary business expenses for Zoom include
cost of good sold= $19,-000
employee wages= $17,000
rent expense = $11,500 and therefore will be deducted from its sales revenue.
charitable contributions and qualified dividends, do not cut across all industries and so are not classified under Ordinary Buisness expences.
Ordinary Business income loss = Sales revenue - cost of good sold, -employee wages- rent expense.
$27,000- $19,000-$`17,000-$11,500= -$20,500. to be reported on its X4 return
Blossom Distribution Co. has determined its December 31, 2020 inventory on a LIFO basis at $962000. Information pertaining to that inventory follows: Estimated selling price $1000000 Estimated cost of disposal 38000 Normal profit margin 118000 Current replacement cost 882000 Blossom records losses that result from applying the lower-of-cost-or-market rule. At December 31, 2020, the loss that Blossom should recognize is
Answer:
The answer is $118,000
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
Now
The selling price estimated is = $1,000,000
Less: Cost of disposal = $38,000
Less: Normal profit margin = $118,000
The net realizable value = $844,000
The market value of inventory is lesser of Net realizable value
Thus
The net realizable value = $844,000
The cost of replacement = $225,000
The Market value of inventory greater of the above) = $844,000
Inventory is valued at cost or market value which ever is low
Then
Cost = $962,000
The market value = $844,000
Hence
The value of Inventory (lesser of the above) = $844,000.
Now,
The loss = $962,000 - $844,000
= $118,000
Therefore, At December 31, 2020, the loss that Blossom should recognize is $118,000
, a doctor from the local hospital, is a friend of Fran, the owner of a candy store. Every day, Ed spends about five minutes in Fran’s candy store during his breaks, looking at the candy and usually buying one or two candy bars. One afternoon Ed goes into Fran’s store, looks at the candy and picks up a $1 candy bar. Fran is busy talking and checking out another customer so to avoid interrupting, Ed merely waves the candy bar at Fran without saying a word as he is walking toward the door. Fran smiles but keeps talking to the customer as Ed walks out. Based upon the information given, as well as making your own assumptions...do Ed and Fran have a contract? If so, what type of contract is it? Is it enforceable? Why or why not.
Answer:
- Yes,
- Bilateral, Implied contract which is enforceable.
Explanation:
Note, both parties consented to a contract even though it was an informal setting. Remember, certain gestures were used by Ed to show contract acceptance, There's also valid consideration since the value of the exchange is known; which is a candy bar for $1.
Fran thus understands that Ed will pay for the candy later since he saw the sign, this also makes it a bilateral contract (between two parties only). The contract is also enforceable since it is legal to sell candies.
You have just bought a 10-year security that pays $500 every six months. Another equally risky security also has a maturity of 10 years, and pays 10%, compounded monthly (that is, the nominal rate is 10%). What price should you have paid for the security that you just purchased
Answer:
PV= $6,178.61
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Number of years= 10
Cash flow= 500 semiannually
Discount rate= 10% compounded monthly
First, we need to calculate the semiannual interest rate:
i= 0.10/12= 0.00833
i= (1.00833^6) - 1= 0.051
Now, we need to calculate the final value of security:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= cash flow
FV= {500*[(1.051^20) - 1] / 0.051
FV= $16,708.79
Finally, the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 16,708.79/1.051^20
PV= $6,178.61
A group of investors has formed SandInn Corporation to purchase a small hotel. The price is $200,000 for the land and $800,000 for the hotel building. If the purchase takes place in June, com- pute the MACRS depreciation for the first three calendar years. Then assume the hotel is sold in June of the fourth year, and compute the MACRS depreciation in that year also.
Answer:
1. Land is not to be depreciated under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) depreciation schedule.
The Building however will be depreciated over a period of 39 years as it is considered an place of business and not a residential property.
The depreciation for such assets is 1.3% in year 1 and 40, and 2.6% for the years in-between.
Year 1 = 1.3% * 800,000
= $10,400
Year 2 = 2.6% * 800,000
= $20,800
Year 3 = 2.6% * 800,000
= $20,800
The total for the first 3 years is,
= 10,400 + 20,800 + 20,800
= $52,000
2. Depreciation in Year 4
= 800,000 * 2.6%
= $20,800
Agency conflicts between managers and shareholders An agency relationship can degenerate into an agency conflict when an agent acts in a manner that is not in the best interest of his or her principal. In business, these conflicts most frequently involve the enrichment of the firm's executives or managers (in the form of money and perquisites or power and prestige) at the expense of the shareholders. This usurping of shareholder wealth is most likely to occur when shareholders do not have sufficient information about the decisions and actions being made by the firm's management. Consider the following scenario and determine whether an agency conflict exists: Daniel owns Daniel's Tantalizing Tees, a T-shirt shop in a small college town in Kansas. With a staff of three part-time employees, Daniel operates the business in accordance with his personal goals, dreams, and capabilities.
Does Daniel have an agency conflict to deal with?
A. No; by having part-time, as opposed to full-time, employees, Daniel is prevented from experiencing an agency conflict.
B. Yes; as both the owner and operator of Daniel's Tantalizing Tees, Daniel has created the necessary agency relationship through which an agency conflict can exist.
C. No; as both the owner and operator of Daniel's Tantalizing Tees, Daniel has not created the necessary agency relationship through which an agency conflict can exist.
D. Yes; there is always an inherent conflict of interest between owners and operators (managers). Consider the following scenario and determine whether an agency conflict exists: Five years ago, Li created a plant-care business that grew, stocked, and maintained fresh plants in office buildings throughout Denver. Over time, The Green Zone Inc. (TGZ) has grown from a proprietorship into a corporation, now reaching far beyond Denver. To finance and support this growth, TGZ issued shares that were sold to TGZ employees, Li's family members, and selected outsiders. Li is TGZ's chairman of the board of directors and CEO, but he is no longer the largest shareholder. At the latest annual meeting, two mutually exclusive proposals were placed on the ballot for discussion and vote. The first was put forth by Li and TGZ's management team, and the second was proposed by a small group of other shareholders. Both groups are adamantly opposed to the other group's proposal, even though both proposals would likely have the same effect on TGZ's value and riskiness.
Does an agency conflict exist between TGZ's management and the small group of opposing shareholders?
A. Yes; an agency relationship exists, and an agency relationship always gives rise to agency conflicts, regardless of the actual behavior of the participants.
B. Yes; any conflict or disagreement between the firm's managers and its shareholders constitutes an agency conflict.
C. No; although an agency relationship exists between TGZ's management-including Li as TGZ's chairman and CEO and the firm's shareholders-there is no agency conflict, because no expropriation or wasting of the shareholders' wealth has occurred.
D. No; Li was the original owner of TGZ, so he would always be sensitive to the concerns of the firm's current owners (shareholders) and would not engage in an agency conflict. For the past 40 years, companies have attempted to attract, retain, and encourage managers by developing attractive compensation packages. These compensation packages have also been intended to reduce potential agency conflicts between these managers and the firm's shareholders. In the best interest of shareholders, compensation packages should be structured in a way such that managers have an incentive to maximize the____value of the company's common stock price. Great Fortunes Baking Company's stockholders are mostly individual investors, and there is relatively little institutional ownership. If several pension and mutual funds were to take large positions in Great Fortunes Baking Company's stock, direct shareholder intervention would be likely to motivate the firm's management. Katz Investment Group's stock price is currently trading at $20 per share. The consensus among market analysts is that the stock should trade for $27.5 per share, given the amount, timing, and riskiness of the company's dividends. Is Katz Investment Group more or less likely to receive a hostile takeover bid?
1. Less likely
2. More likely
Answer:
1. C. No; as both the owner and operator of Daniel's Tantalizing Tees, Daniel has not created the necessary agency relationship through which an agency conflict can exist.
For an agency problem to exist, the owners and the managers must be two different sets of people. If they are the same person, then practically speaking, they cannot usurp their own wealth.
2. C. No; although an agency relationship exists between TGZ's management-including Li as TGZ's chairman and CEO and the firm's shareholders-there is no agency conflict, because no expropriation or wasting of the shareholders' wealth has occurred.
Indeed there is an Agency relationship in effect because some shareholders are not in management. However, it cannot be said that there is a agency conflict because there is no evidence shown that shareholder wealth is being expropriated.
3. Intrinsic
The Intrinsic value of a stock is the value that an investor believes the stock is worth. A Manager should therefore get incentives that will inspire them to take investor perception of stock high. When this happens it increases shareholder wealth primarily through capital gain.
4 ... direct shareholder intervention would be more likely to motivate the firm's management.
Institutional Investors such as Pension and Mutual funds usually have more say in a company as they represent several shareholders and have expertise in the field. Should they get involved, their direct intervention would motivate the firm's management.
5. More likely
If investors believe that the stock should be trading for higher than it actually is, this is incentive to try to lay their hands on the stock to take advantage of this undervaluation. They would be able to offer the current shareholders more money than what it is currently worth which will most likely get them the shares they want. This is classified as a Hostile takeover.

You want to go to grad school 3 years from now, and you can save $5,000 per year, beginning one year from today. You plan to deposit the funds in a mutual fund which you expect to return 9% per year. Under these conditions, how much will you have just after you make the 3rd deposit, 3 years from now
Answer:
$16,390.50
Explanation:
For computing the amount after you make the 3rd deposit we need to use the future value formula i.e to be shown in the attachment
Provided that,
Present value = $0
Rate of interest = 9%
NPER = 3 years
PMT = $5,000
The formula is shown below:
= -FV(Rate;NPER;PMT;PV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the future value is $16,390.50

Williamson Industries has $7 billion in sales and $2 billion in fixed assets. Currently, the company's fixed assets are operating at 90% of capacity. What level of sales could Williamson Industries have obtained if it had been operating at full capacity
Answer: Williamson industries would have obtained $7.78 billion in sales
Explanation: According to the question, the company is having a total of $2 billion in fixed assets. The fixed assets are currently operating at 90% (0.9) of its total capacity. At his level, the company is able to achieve a sales figure of $7 billion. The implication is as follows;
Fixed assets (at 100%) = 2 billion
Fixed assets (at 90%) = 2 * 0.9
Fixed assets (at 90%) = 1.8
If the company utilizes $1.8 billion to achieve a $7 billion sales figure, then operating at full capacity (100%) would yield the following;
7/x = 90/100
(Where x equals sales level at 100% capacity)
7/x = 0.9
Cross multiply
x = 7/0.9
x = 7.7777...
x ≈ 7.78
Therefore, if Williamson Industries had been operating at full capacity, it would have obtained a sales level of $7.78 billion

Incremental revenue 42000 Incremental savings on variable costs -14000 Incremental savings on direct fixed costs -5000 Incremental decrease in profit to drop video line 9800
Answer:
($3,000)
Explanation:
Preparation of the incremental analysis of the effect of dropping the Video product line.
Incremental analysis:
Incremental revenue($30,000)
Incremental savings on variable costs +23,000
Incremental savings on direct fixed costs +4000
The Incremental decrease in profit to drop the video line($3,000)
Incremental analyses tend to only show the differences that occured in revenues and costs. While the comparative income statements, tend to show the net amounts to be reported after the drop are not incremental analyses.
Therefore the incremental analysis of the effect of dropping the Video product line will be ($3,000)

Based on the following data, estimate the cost of the ending merchandise inventory:
Sales (net) $1,450,000
Estimated gross profit rate 42%
Beginning merchandise inventory $100,000
Purchases (net) 860,000
Merchandise available for sale $960,000
Cost of Ending Merchandise Inventory
Merchandise available for sale $
Less cost of merchandise sold
Estimated ending merchandise inventory $
Answer:
Ending inventory $119,000
Explanation:
Estimation of cost of ending merchandise inventory:
Merchandise available for sale $960,000
Less Cost of goods sold $841,000
[1,450,000* (100%-42%)]
Ending inventory $119,000
( $960,000 - $841,000)
Therefore the cost of the ending merchandise inventory will be $119,000
A sinking fund is established by a working couple so that they will have $60,000 to pay for part of their daughter's education when she enters college. If they make deposits at the end of each 3-month period for 8 years, and if interest is paid at 10%, compounded quarterly, what size deposits must they make
Answer:
quarterly deposit= $12,460.99
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
FV= $60,000
Number of periods= 4*8= 32
i= 0.10/4= 0.025
To calculate the quarterly deposit required, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= quarterly deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
A= (60,000*0.025) / [(1.025^32) - 1]
A= 12,460.99

Explanation:
Sexton Corp. has current liabilities of $510,000, a quick ratio of .93, inventory turnover of 6.9, and a current ratio of 1.5. What is the cost of goods sold for the company?
Answer:
The cost of goods sold for the company is $2,005,830.
Explanation:
This can be calculated from the available information using the following steps:
Step 1: Calculation of Current Assets
To do this, we use the current ratio formula as follows:
Current ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Substituting the values in the question into the equation above and solve for Current Assets, we have:
1.5 = Current Assets / $510,000
Current Assets = $510,000 * 1.5 = $765,000
Step 2: Calculation of Inventory
To do this, we use the Quick Ratio formula as follows:
Quick ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities
Substituting the values in the question and from Step 1 into the equation above and solve for Inventory, we have:
0.93 = ($765,000 - Inventory) / $510,000
0.93 * $510,000 = $765,000 - Inventory
$474,300 = $765,000 - Inventory
$474,300 + Inventory = $765,000
Inventory = $765,000 - 474,300 = $290,700
Note that this inventory of $290,700 is the ending inventory.
Step 3: Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold
To do this, we use the Inventory Turnover formula as follows:
Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / Average Inventory
Note that average Average Inventory is the addition of the beginning and closing inventory divided by 2. But since the beginning inventory is not available, the practice is to use the ending inventory in place of the average inventory. This is what we do here below.
Substituting the values in the question and from Step 2 into the equation above and solve for Cost of goods sold, we have:
6.9 = Cost of goods sold / $290,700
Cost of goods sold = 6.9 * $290,7000 = $2,005,830
Therefore, the cost of goods sold for the company is $2,005,830.

Return to questionItem 12Item 12 Part 2 of 2 0.62 points Required information Use the following information for the Exercises below. [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Daley Company prepared the following aging of receivables analysis at December 31. Days Past Due Total 0 1 to 30 31 to 60 61 to 90 Over 90 Accounts receivable $ 585,000 $ 399,000 $ 93,000 $ 39,000 $ 21,000 $ 33,000 Percent uncollectible 1 % 2 % 5 % 7 % 10 % Exercise 9-9 Percent of receivables method LO P3 a. Estimate the balance of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts assuming the company uses 6% of total accounts receivable to estimate uncollectibles, instead of the aging of receivables method. b. Prepare the adjusting entry to record Bad Debts Expense using the estimate from part a. Assume the unadjusted balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a $12,300 credit. c. Prepare the adjusting entry to record bad debts expense using the estimate from part a. Assume the unadjusted balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a $1,300 debit.
Answer:
total accounts receivable = $585,000 + $399,000 + $93,000 + $39,000 + $21,000 + $33,000 = $1,170,000
a. Estimate the balance of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts assuming the company uses 6% of total accounts receivable to estimate uncollectibles, instead of the aging of receivables method.
bad debt = $1,170,000 x 6% = $70,200
b. Prepare the adjusting entry to record Bad Debts Expense using the estimate from part a. Assume the unadjusted balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a $12,300 credit.
= $70,200 - $12,300 = $57,900
Dr Bad debt expense 57,900
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 57,900
c. Prepare the adjusting entry to record bad debts expense using the estimate from part a. Assume the unadjusted balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a $1,300 debit.
= $70,200 + $1,300 = $71,500
Dr Bad debt expense (= $70,200 + $1,300) 71,500
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 71,500
Since the allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance, any previous debit balance must be cancelled by crediting the amount.

Preferred stock valuation TXS Manufacturing has an outstanding preferred stock issue with a par value of $68 per share. The preferred shares pay dividends annually at a rate of 9%. a. What is the annual dividend on TXS preferred stock? b. If investors require a return of 4% on this stock and the next dividend is payable one year from now, what is the price of TXS preferred stock? c. Suppose that TXS has not paid dividends on its preferred shares in the past two years, but investors believe that it will start paying dividends again in one year. What is the value of TXS preferred stock if it is cumulative and if investors require a(n) 4% rate of return?
Answer:
a. Annual dividend on TXS preferred stock is $6.12 per share.
b. The price of TXS preferred stock is $153 per share.
c. The value of TXS preferred stock if it is cumulative and if investors require a(n) 4% rate of return is $164.77 per share.
Explanation:
These can be calculated as follows:
a. What is the annual dividend on TXS preferred stock?
The formula for calculating the annual dividend on preferred stock is given as follows:
Annual dividend on preferred stock = Par value of preferred stock * annual dividend rate
Since we have the following for TXS:
Par value of preferred stock = $68 per share
Annual dividend rate = 9%
Therefore, we have:
Annual dividend on preferred stock = $68 * 9% = $6.12 per share
Therefore, annual dividend on TXS preferred stock is $6.12 per share.
b. If investors require a return of 4% on this stock and the next dividend is payable one year from now, what is the price of TXS preferred stock?
The formula for calculating the price of preferred stock is given as follows:
Price of preferred stock = Dividend per share / Preferred stock required rate of return
Since for TXS, we have
Dividend per share = $6.12 per share
Preferred stock required rate of return = 4%, or 0.04
Therefore, we have:
Price of preferred stock = $6.12 / 0.04 = $153 per share
Therefore, the price of TXS preferred stock is $153 per share.
c. Suppose that TXS has not paid dividends on its preferred shares in the past two years, but investors believe that it will start paying dividends again in one year. What is the value of TXS preferred stock if it is cumulative and if investors require a(n) 4% rate of return?
Cumulative preferred stock implies that unpaid previous dividends can be carried forward as arrears to when the dividend is paid.
Since TXS has not paid dividends on its cumulative preferred shares in the past two years, but will start paying dividends again in one year implies that preferred stockholders will receive the dividends in arrears of one year together with the next dividend payment.
Based on this, we have
TXS preferred stock value = PV of two dividends + Preferred stock price
PV of two dividends = Present value of two dividends in arrears to paid now = M / (1 + r)^n
Where,
M = 2 * Annual dividend on TXS preferred stock = 2 * $6.12 = $12.24
r = 4%, or 0.04
n = 1 year
Therefore, we have:
PV of two dividends = $12.24 / (1 + 0.04)^1 = $11.77
Since from part b. preferred stock price is $153 per share, we therefore have:
TXS preferred stock value = $11.77 + 153 = $164.77 per share
Therefore, the value of TXS preferred stock if it is cumulative and if investors require a(n) 4% rate of return is $164.77 per share.
As per the question, the TXS company has outstanding preferred stock issues with a value that is parred USD 68 per share and prefers to pay the dividend at an annual rate of 9%.
Thus the yearly dividend of the TXS on preferred stock is a. total dividend on TXS stock is of $6.12 per share. If the investors gained four percent on this stock and next is made payable 1 year from now, then the prices of TXS stock will be $153/share. If the TXS is not being paid then the preferred share for the two-year period is total and if investors require at 4% rate of return which is at $164.77 per share.Learn more about the TXS Manufacturing has an outstanding.
