Answer: $27,343.75
Explanation:
The original yearly depreciation was ;
= (147,000 - 8,500) / 8
= $17,312.50
Value at beginning of Year 3;
= Cost - Accumulated depreciation
= 147,000 - (17,312.50 * 2)
= $112,375
Using the new figures, depreciation per year is now;
= (112,375 - 3,000) / 4
= $27,343.75

On January 1, 2020, Global Sales issued $25,000 in bonds for $29,800. These are eight-year bonds with a stated rate of 15% and pay semiannual interest. Global Sales uses the straight-line method to amortize the bond premium. On June 30, 2020, when Global makes the first payment to bondholders, what is the amount that will be reported as Interest Expense? (Round your intermediate answers to the nearest dollar.) Group of answer choices $1575 $3225 $1875 $1225
Answer:
$ 1,875
Explanation:
Note that cash payable to bondholders semiannually( semiannual coupon payment) is the face value multiplied by the stated rate of 15% apportioned to reflect six-month payment rather than a whole year as computed below:
semiannual coupon payment=face value*coupon rate*6/12
face value=$25,000
coupon rate=15%
semiannual coupon payment=$25,000*15%*6/12
semiannual coupon payment=$1,875
On January 1, Year 1, Lowing Company acquired a patent from Generics Research Corporation for $3 million. The legal life of the patent is 20 years, but Lowing expects to use it for 5 years. Pawson Company has committed to purchase the patent from Lowing for $500,000 at the end of that 5-year period. Lowing uses the straight-line method to amortize intangible assets with finite useful lives. What is the amount of amortization expense each year
Answer:
patent amortization expense per year = $500,000 per year
Explanation:
patent amortization expense per year = depreciable value / useful life of the intangible asset
depreciable value = purchase cost - salvage value = $3,000,000 - $500,000 = $2,500,000useful life of the patent = 5 years (the legal life is different than the useful life)patent amortization expense per year = $2,500,000 / 5 years = $500,000 per year
LaMount works for a company in downtown Chicago. The company encourages employees to use public transportation (to save the environment) by providing them with transit passes at a cost of $275 per month.
a. If LaMont receives one pass (worth $275) each month, how much of this benefit must he include in his gross income each year?
b. If the company provides each employee with $275 per month in parking benefits, how much of the parking benefit must LaMont include in his gross income each year?
Answer:
a. $60 per year
b. $60 per year
Explanation:
The IRS decide the limit for Employee Fringe Benefit every year. As per the Latest Statutory limit, we can generally exclude the value of Transportation benefits during 2020 from the Employee's wages up to $270 per month for combined commuter highway vehicle transportation and transit passes. In this case, since no year was mentioned in the question, it has been assumed as 2020.
a. The amount of transit pass benefit to be included in gross income each year is as follows:
Benefit included in gross income = Worth of pass - Slab rate
Benefit included in gross income = $275 - $270
Benefit included in gross income = $5 * 12 month
Benefit included in gross income = $60 per year
b. The amount of parking benefit that LaMont must include in his gross income each year is as follows
Parking benefit included in gross income = Parking benefit provided by the company - Slab rate
Parking benefit included in gross income = Worth of pass - Slab rate
Parking benefit included in gross income = $275 - $270
Parking benefit included in gross income = $5 * 12 month
Parking benefit included in gross income = $60 per year.
Which of the following statements about adjustments is correct? Multiple Choice Accrued wages are wages owed, but not yet paid, to employees; the accrued wages will need to be recorded with an adjusting entry that increases expenses. When making an adjustment to recognize supplies used in a period, total assets will not change. Deferral adjustments are used to update amounts that have been previously deferred on the income statement. Depreciation is an example of an accrual adjustment.
Answer:
The Statement that is correct about adjustments is:
Accrued wages are wages owed, but not yet paid, to employees; the accrued wages will need to be recorded with an adjusting entry that increases expenses.
Explanation:
Unpaid wages are adjusted with a debit to the Wages Expense account, which increases the account, and a credit to the Wages Payable account, which also increases the account by the same amount. The purpose of this accrual adjustment is to ensure that the amount reported as Wages Expense is the actual expense incurred for Wages, whether actually paid or not, and thus report the accurate net income and liabilities for the period.

A project with a zero net present value indicates that it is acceptable. unacceptable. going to have an acceptable cash payback period. profitable.
Answer:
acceptable.
Explanation:
Project management can be defined as the process of designing, planning, developing, leading and execution of a project plan or activities using a set of skills, tools, knowledge, techniques and experience to achieve the set goals and objectives of creating a unique product or service.
Generally, projects are considered to be temporary because they usually have a start-time and an end-time to complete, execute or implement the project plan.
The net present value (NPV) of a project can be defined as the difference between present value of cash-inflow into a project and that of cash-outflow over a specific period of time. Thus, it is simply the value of all cash-flows for a project with respect to its life span.
A project with a zero net present value indicates that it is acceptable.
This ultimately implies that, investors and project managers are advised to only invest in projects that are having a positive net present value that is greater than or equal to zero.
Suppose the Federal Reserve (the Fed) announces that it is raising its target interest rate by 50 basis points, or 0.50%. It would achieve this by _____________________: The sequence of events that results in a new equilibrium interest rate, after the Fed makes the change you selected, may be described as follows: Because there is ____________ in the financial system the quantity of money demanded __________.
Answer: decreasing money supply; less; decreases.
Explanation:
When the Federal Reserve wants to increase its target interest rate by 50 basis points, this can be done if the Fed reduces the money supply that is in circulation.
This will in turn, lead to a new equilibrium rate and there will also be a decrease in money in the financial system as there'll be a reduction in the quantity of money demanded.
An all-equity firm is considering the following projects: Project Beta IRR W .63 9.4 % X .76 10.5 Y 1.29 14.0 Z 1.40 17.1 The T-bill rate is 5.1 percent, and the expected return on the market is 12.1 percent. a. Which projects have a higher/lower expected return than the firm’s 12.1 percent cost of capital? b. Which projects should be accepted? c. Which projects will be incorrectly accepted/rejected or correctly accepted/rejected if the firm's overall cost of capital were used as a hurdle rate?
Answer:
Project Beta IRR project's cost of equity
W .63 9.4% = 5.1% + (0.63 x 7%) = 9.51%
X .76 10.5% = 5.1% + (0.76 x 7%) = 10.42%
Y 1.29 14.0% = 5.1% + (1.29 x 7%) = 14.13%
Z 1.40 17.1% = 5.1% + (1.40 x 7%) = 14.9%
the company's cost of capital = 12%
a. Which projects have a higher/lower expected return than the firm’s 12.1 percent cost
of capital?
higher expected return ⇒ projects Y and Z lower expected return ⇒ projects W and Xb. Which projects should be accepted?
accepted ⇒ projects X and Z (their IRR is higher than their Re) rejected ⇒ projects W and Y (their IRR is lower than their Re)c. Which projects will be incorrectly accepted/rejected or correctly accepted/rejected if the firm's overall cost of capital were used as a hurdle rate?
if the company uses its cost of capital, then it would incorrectly reject project W and incorrectly accept project YGross Corporation adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory valuation on December 31, 2019.

Information regarding inventory for subsequent years is as follows: Inventory at Current Date Current Prices Price Index December 31, 2020 $1,284,000 107 December 31, 2021 1,450,000 125 December 31, 2022 1,625,000 130 What is the cost of the ending inventory at December 31, 2021 under dollar-value LIFO
Answer: $1,175,000
Explanation:
Cost of ending inventory December 31, 2021;
= December 2019 ending inventory + {(Inventory at 2021 price/2021 index * 2019 index) - December 2019 ending inventory} * 2021 index / 2019 index
= 1,100,000 + {(1,450,000/125 * 100) - 1,100,000} * 125/100
= 1,100,000 + 75,000
= $1,175,000

Define the three economic effects of oligopoly
Answer:
Some of the oligopoly effects are discussed as follows:
i. Restriction on output:
Implies that oligopoly results in small output and high prices as compared to other market structures, such as perfect competition.
ii. Price exceeds average costs:Implies that under oligopoly, there are restrictions on entry of new organizations. Thus, organizations charge prices more than the average costs. Therefore, consumers have to pay more in case of oligopoly market.
iii. Lower Efficiency:
Leads to non-optimum levels of output. This is because the output produced under oligopoly depends on the market share held by the organization. Thus, the oligopoly organizations fail to build the optimum scales of economies and achieve optimum output.
iv. Selling Costs:
Refer to high promotional costs. The oligopolists engage in high promotion tasks to take the share of its rivals. Thus, the resources are wasted in form of high selling costs which do not add to the satisfaction of customers.
Apart from aforementioned points, oligopoly shows the poor performance from various other angles. From the point of economic welfare, it fails to satisfy customers since the price charged is very high, even more than average costs. In addition, sometimes oligopolists may face wasteful fluctuations in output as the output is not determined optimally.

Divac’s preferred stock is $100 par, 8% stock. If the stock is liquidated or redeemed, stockholders are entitled to $120 per share. There are no dividends in arrears on the stock. The common stock has a par value of $10 per share. Assume that the common stockholders have a right to the total net income of $74,000.
Answer:
1. 59.21%
2. $15.98
Explanation:
Note: The table is attached as picture below
Required: "1. Determine the dividend payout ratio for the common stock 2. Determine the book value per share of Divac’s common stock."
1. Dividend Payout Ratio = Cash Dividend / Net Income * 100
Dividend Payout Ratio = 45,000 / 76,000 * 100
Dividend Payout Ratio = 59.21052631578947%
Dividend Payout Ratio = 59.21%
2. Number of Shares for Preferred Stock = Total Value of Preferred Stock / Par Value Per Share of Preferred Stock
Number of Shares for Preferred Stock = 110,000 /100
Number of Shares for Preferred Stock = 1,100
Liquidation Value of Preferred Stock = Number of Shares of Preferred Stock * Liquidation Price Per Share
Liquidation Value of Preferred Stock = 1,100 * 120
Liquidation Value of Preferred Stock = 132,000
Total Stockholders' Equity ′ = Preferred Stock + Paid in Capital Preferred + Common Stock + Paid in Capital Common + Retained Earnings
Total Stockholders' Equity = 110,000 + 55,000 + 500,000 + 50,000 + 216,000
Total Stockholders' Equity = 931,000
Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock = Total Stockholders' Equity - Liquidation Value of Preferred Stock
Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock = 931,000 - 132,000
Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock = 799,000
Number of Shares of Common Stock = Total Value of Common Stock / Par Value Per Share of Common Stock
Number of Shares of Common Stock = 500,000 / $10
Number of Shares of Common Stock = 50,000
Book Value Per Share = Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock / Number of Shares of Common Stock Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock
Book Value Per Share = 799,000 / 50,000
Book Value Per Share = $15.98
So therefore, the Book Value Per Share is $15.98 per share

What were Sraibn271 Corporation's common fixed expenses?
a) $131,450
b) $43,650
c) $51,000
d) $94,650
Answer: b) $43,650
Explanation:
Contribution margin of Domestic division + contribution margin of Foreign division - traceable fixed cost - common fixed cost = Net operating income for company
46,400 + (0.35 * 243,000) - 51,000 - Common = 36,800
80,450 - Common = 36,800
Common = 80,450 - 36,800
= $43,650

Explanation:
Net Present value is the present value of inflows less present value of outflows.
The project has annual inflows of $54,000 except in 4th year where it will have inflows of $65,000 because the salvage value will be added to the inflows.
Present value of inflows = 54,000/1.12 + 54,000/1.12² + 54,000/1.12³ + 65,000/1.12⁴
= $160,516
Net Present Value = 160,516 - 160,000
= $516
In examining investors’ preferences for dividends, it is useful to begin with the concept of dividend irrelevance. Dividend irrelevance suggests that in a world with no taxes or brokerage (or transaction) costs, firms and investors are indifferent to the paying or receiving of dividends. However, as these restrictions are relaxed, various factors suggest that firms should pursue high or low payouts. One such factor is:
Answer: Favor a high payout
Explanation:
Investors are allowed to exclude as much as 70% of dividend income from taxes. They will therefore demand a higher payout in terms of investment so that they make make more income after they exclude taxes.
For instance, assume investors had a choice between receiving $40 and $60 in dividends.
On $40, the non-taxable amount would be = 40 * 70% = $28
On $60, the non-taxable amount would be = 60 * 70% = $42
They will pick the higher payout of $60 in order to get more income after tax.
Onofkp411 Corporation has a time contraint on one of its special machines. The company makes three products that use this machine. Data concerning those products appear below: Magnifico Bellissimo Lovely
Selling price per unit $ 335.18 $ 228.46 $ 199.21
Variable cost per unit $ 259.26 $ 173.08 $ 159.61
Minutes on the constraint 7.50 4.30 5.50
Assume that sufficient time is available on the constrained machine to satisfy demand for all but the least profitable product Q) Up to how much should Onofkp 411 be willing to pay to acquire more of the constrained resource (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
a) $75.80 per minute
b) $14.17 per unit
c) $39.48 per unit
d) $774 per minute
Answer: $7.20 per minute
Explanation:
Find out the profitability of each product as Contribution Margin per minute.
Magnifico
Contribution margin per minute = (Selling price - Variable cost) / minutes on the constraint
= (335.18 - 259.26) / 7.5
= $10.12 per minute
Bellissimo
= (228.46 - 173.08) / 4.3
= $12.88 per minute
Lovely
= (199.21 - 159.61) / 5.5
= $7.20 per minute
Their least profitable product is $7.20 per minute.
The machine does not have sufficient time to satisfy the needs of Lovely so they will have to pay more to acquire more of the resource but they should not pay anything more than $7.20 per minute as this is their contribution margin for the product. and anything more would result in a loss.
Options are most probably for another variant of the question.

If a proposed expenditure of $80,000 for a fixed asset with a 4-year life has an annual expected net cash flow and net income of $32,000 and $12,000, respectively, the cash payback period is 2.5 years.
a. true
b. false
Answer: a. true
Explanation:
Cash payback period shows the amount of time it will take for cash inflows from an investment to pay off the investment.
Cash payback period = Investment/ Cash inflow
= 80,000/32,000
= 2.5 years
Statement is proven true.
