The following amounts were received by ABC throughout the course of the year: $10,000 from consumers; $6,000 from the bank for long-term borrowing; $5,000 to suppliers; $1,000 in dividends; $2,000 to employees; and $8,000 for machinery. The amount that would be reported for investment net cash flows is -8000.
What is meant by Cash Flow?A cash flow is a physical or fictitious flow of funds:
The phrase "cash flow" is typically used to represent payments that are anticipated to occur in the future, are thus unknown, and so need to be projected using cash flows;
A cash flow in its restricted sense is a payment (in a currency), especially from one central bank account to another;
A cash flow is determined by its time t, nominal amount N, currency CCY, and account A; symbolically, CF = CF (t,N,CCY,A).
Nonetheless, it is common to use the term "cash flow" in a less precise sense to describe (symbolic) payments into or out of a business, project, or financial product.

Jack and Jill are the only two residents in a neighborhood, and they would like to hire a security guard. The value of a security guard is $50 per month to Jack and $150 per month to Jill. The competitive wage for a security guard is $120 per month, and irrespective of who pays the guard, the guard will protect the entire neighborhood. Furthermore, suppose Jack earns $1,000 per month and Jill earns $11,000 per month.
Required:
a. What is the most a guard can charge per month and still be assured of being hired by at least one of them?
b. Suppose the competitive wage for a security guard is $120 per month. The local government proposes a plan whereby Jack and Jill each pays 50 percent of this monthly fee, and asks them to vote on this plan. Will the plan be voted in? Would economic surplus be higher if the neighborhood had a guard?
Answer:
Jack and Jill
a. The most a guard can charge per month and still be assured of being hired by at least one of them = $120
b. The vote will be 50 - 50. The local authority will decide since there is a 50 - 50 chance.
The economic surplus would be higher if the neighborhood had a guard by $80 ($200 - $120).
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Value of a security guard to Jack = $50 per month
Value of a security guard to Jill = $150 per month
Total value = $200 per month
Competitive wage for a security guard = $120 per month
Waldo Company has been approached about providing a new service to its clients. The company will bill clients $160 per hour; the related hourly variable and fixed operating costs will be $70 and $24, respectively. If all employees are currently working at full capacity on other client matters, the per-hour opportunity cost of being unable to provide this new service is:
Answer:
$90 per hour
Explanation:
Opportunity cost means the benefit one have forgone, for choosing another alternative. Opportunity cost of being unable to provide new service = Billing price - Variable cost per hour. Here, fixed cost is not considered because it will be incurred irrespective of the capacity of working.
So, Opportunity cost = $160 - $70 = $90 per hour
Stanford Corporation has four categories of overhead. The expected overhead costs for each category for next year are as follows:

Setups 75,000
Inspection 150,000
The company has been asked to submit a bid for a proposed job. The plant manager believes that obtaining this job would result in new business in future years. Bids are usually based upon full manufacturing cost plus 30 percent. Estimates for the proposed job are as follows:
Direct materials $5000
Direct labor (375 hours) $7500
Number of material moves 4
Number of inspections 3
Number of setups 2
Number of machine-hours 150
Expected activity for the four activity-based cost drivers that would be used is:
Machine-hours 10,000
Material moves 2,000
Setups 100
Quality inspections 4,000
Required:
a. Determine the amount of overhead that would be allocated to the proposed job if 20,000 direct labor-hours are used as the volume-based cost driver.
b. Determine the total costs of the proposed job.
c. Determine the company's bid if the bid is based upon full manufacturing cost plus 30 percent.
d. Determine the amount of overhead that would be applied to the proposed project if activity-based costing is used.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
a)
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 2,325,000 / 20,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $116.25 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 116.25*375
Allocated MOH= $43,493.75
b)
Total cost= 5,000 + 7,500 + 43,493.75
Total cost= $55,993.75
c)
Selling price= 55,993.75*1.3
Selling price= $72,791.88
d)
First, we need to calculate the activities rate:
Maintenance= 210,000 / 10,000= $21 per machine hour
Materials handling= 90,000 / 2,000= $45 per material move
Setups= 75,000 / 100= $750 per setup
Inspection= 150,000 / 4,000= $37.5 per inspection
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Maintenance= 21*150= 3,150
Materials handling= 45*4= 180
Setups= 750*2= 1,500
Inspection= 37.5*3= 112.5
Total allocated costs= $4,942.5
The ABCD Partnership has the following balance sheet at January 1, 2017, prior to the admission of new partner, Eden. Cash and current assets $ 39,000 Liabilities $ 52,000 Land 234,000 Adams, capital 26,000 Building and equipment 130,000 Barnes, capital 52,000 Cordas, capital 117,000 Davis, capital 156,000 Total $ 403,000 Total $ 403,000 Eden acquired a 20% interest in the partnership by contributing a total of $71,500 directly to the other four partners. Goodwill is to be recorded. Profits and losses have previously been split according to the following percentages: Adams, 15%; Barnes, 35%; Cordas, 30%; and Davis, 20%. After Eden made his investment, what were the individual capital balances
Answer:
Adam = $26,000, Barnes = $52,000, Cordas = $117,000, Davis = $156,000 & Eden = $87,750
Explanation:
Net Assets before admission of Eden= $403,000-$52,000 (liabilities) = $351,000. So, this will be 80% i.e (100-20%) after admission of Eden. So, proportionate value = $351,000/80*100 = $438,750
Net assets after admission of Eden = $351,000 + $71,500 = $422,500. So, the difference = $438,750 - $422,500 = $16,250
Goodwill = Eden's proportionate share - Invested Money
Goodwill = [$438,750*20%] - $71,500
Goodwill = $87,750 - $71,500
Goodwill = $16,250
Journal Entry will be:
Cash a/c Dr $71,500
Goodwill a/c Dr $16250
To Eden's capital a/c $87,750
Individual capital account balances:
Adam = $26,000
Barnes = $52,000
Cordas = $117,000
Davis = $156,000
Eden = $87,750

NuPress Valet has a proposed investment with an initial cost of $62 million and cash flows of $12.5 million for 5 years. Debt represents 44 percent of the capital structure. The cost of equity is 13.7 percent, the pretax cost of debt is 8.5 percent, and the tax rate is 34 percent. What is the company’s WACC?
Answer:
WACC= 10.14%
Explanation:
Weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of all of the long-term types of finance used by a company weighted according to the that amount of finance used in relation to the total pool of fund.
WACC = (Wd×Kd) + (We×Ke)
After-tax cost of debt = Before tax cost of debt× (1-tax rate)
Kd-After-tax cost of debt
Ke-Cost of equity
Wd-Weight f debt
We-Weight of equity
After tax cost of debt = (1-T)× Before-tax yield on debt
= (1-0.34)× 8.5%
=5.61%
Cost of equity = 13.7%
WACC = (Wd×Kd) + (We×Ke)
We= 100-44=56%, Wd= 44%
WACC= (5.61%× 44%) + (13.7%× 56%)
= 10.14%
WACC= 10.14%

A company acquires a natural resource for and spends another on development of the site and for a nonmovable tangible asset installed at the site and for tangible movable equipment. Both assets have an expected useful life of 10 years. The natural resource is expected to yield units over its expected life. In year 1, units are extracted from the resource. What is the depletion expense for year 1? (Round any intermediary calculations to the nearest cent, and round your final answer to the nearest dollar.) A. B. C. D.
Question Completion:
A company acquires a natural resource for $1,400,000 and spends another $530,000 on development of the site and $320,000 for a non-movable tangible asset installed at the site and $150,000 for tangible movable equipment. Both assets have an expected useful life of 10 years. The natural resource is expected to yield 140,000 units over its expected life. In year 1, 45,000 units are extracted from the resource. What is the depletion expense for year 1?
Answer:
The depletion expense for Year 1 is:
= $77,143.50.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Acquisition cost of the natural resource = $1,400,000
Site development cost = 530,000
Cost of non-movable equipment = 320,000
Cost of movable equipment = 150,000
Total cost of natural resource = $2,400,000
Expected useful life of assets = 10 years
Expected units yield from the natural resource = 140,000
Resource extracted in Year 1 = 45,000
Depletion rate = $2,400,000/140,000 = $1.7143
Depletion expense for Year 1 = $1.7143 * 45,000 = $77,143.50

Under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, the ending inventory is calculated using the cost of the lasts units incorporated into inventory:
Ending inventory in units= 180
Endign inventory cost= 54*22 + 126*20
Endign inventory cost= $3,708
if the company chooses the lease option, it will have to pay an immediate deposit of 25000 to cover any future damages to the equipment. deposit is refundable at the end of the lease term. the annual lease payments are made at the end of each year. based on a net present value analysis with a discount rate of 20% what is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying the equipment rather than leasing it
Answer:
The answer is "68,788".
Explanation:
Net cash flow present value = immediate deposit + Annual lease payment present value
[tex]= 25000+(18000\times 2.991)-25000\times 0.402[/tex]
Net cash flow present value [tex]= 78838-10050 = 68788[/tex]
A firm with unlimited funds must evaluate five projects. Projects 1 and 2 are independent and Projects 3, 4, and 5 are mutually exclusive. The projects are listed with their returns. A ranking of the projects on the basis of their returns from the best to the worst according to their acceptability to the firm would be ________.
Answer:
4, 1, 2,
Explanation:
Here are the projects and their returns
Project Return (%)
1 14
2 12
3 10
4 15
5 12
the firm should choose the project with the highest returns
Projects are mutually exclusive if the projects cannot occur at the same time. If one project is chosen, the others cannot be chosen.
Project 3,4,5 are mutually exclusive. If one of the projects are chosen, other projects cannot be chosen.
Project 4 has the highest return, so it would be chosen first.
the next project with the next highest return is project 1 and then project 2

You were hired as a consultant to Quigley Company, whose target capital structure is 35% debt, 10% preferred, and 55% common equity. The interest rate on new debt is 6.50%, the yield on the preferred is 6.00%, the cost of common from retained earnings is 11.25%, and the tax rate is 40%. The firm will not be issuing any new common stock. Quigley's WACC is closest to: 8.15% 8.48% 8.82% 9.17% 9.54%
Answer:
8.15 %
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the business Cost of permanent sources of finance pooled together. It shows the risk of the business and is used to evaluate projects.
WACC = Cost of Equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt
Remember to use the After tax cost of debt :
After tax cost of debt = Interest x ( 1 - tax rate)
= 6.50% x (1 - 0.40)
= 3.90 %
therefore,
WACC = 11.25% x 55% + 6.00% x 10% + 3.90 % x 35%
= 8.15 %
Thus,
Quigley's WACC is closest to 8.15 %.

According to the Taylor Rule, the Fed should use monetary policy to stimulate the economy when it dips below the potential GDP.
One way it can do this is to reduce interest rates. This will make the cost of borrowing less and convince both people and businesses to borrow money. They can then spend and invest this money which would contribute to both consumption and investment spending thereby ultimately increasing GDP.

The car was parked in the lot along with other cars, some of which were for sale. The manager of ABC Motors accidentally sold the car to Connie because she saw it and took it upon herself to offer a good price. The manager was attempting to increase the shop's profit margin. Connie had no idea that the car did not belong to ABC Motors. When Robby went to pick up the car, he was very upset that it was gone. The manager told Robby that he was very sorry, but that he was not negligent and only made an honest mistake.

At the time of his death on July 9, Aiden held rights in the following real estate: Fair Market Value (on July 9) Apartment building $2,100,000 Tree farm 1,500,000 Pastureland 750,000 Residence 900,000 The apartment building was purchased by Chloe, Aiden's mother, and is owned in a joint tenancy with her. The tree farm and pastureland were gifts from Chloe to Aiden and his two sisters. The tree farm is held in joint tenancy, and the pastureland is owned as tenants in common. Aiden purchased the residence and owns it with his wife as tenants by the entirety. Compute Aiden's gross estate based on the scenarios:
Answer:
The answer is [tex]\$1,200,000[/tex]"".
Explanation:
[tex]\to [\$500,000 (\frac{1}{3} \times \$1,500,000) + \$250,000 (\frac{1}[3} \times \$750,000 + \$450,000 (\frac{1}[2} \times \$900,000]\\\\\\to \$1,200,000[/tex]
Though this tree farm is jointly held, Aiden is assumed to have given 1/3 of the treatment because his mother gave her a gift to create the lease. The tenancy of the major chunk is subjected to the fifty percent spouse exclusion rule. None of the structures is included as Chloe does not escape Aiden.
