Under what conditions does a Cobb-Douglas production function,
q= 10L^0.71. K^0.84
Show how output changes if both inputs are doubled.
Answer:
Exhibits increasing returns to scale.
Explanation:
Given that,
Cobb-Douglas production function:
[tex]q=10(L)^{0.71}(K)^{0.84}[/tex]
If both inputs are doubled, then
[tex]q=10(2L)^{0.71}(2K)^{0.84}[/tex]
[tex]q=10(2)^{(0.71+0.84)}(L)^{0.71}(K)^{0.84}[/tex]
[tex]q=10(2)^{1.55}(L)^{0.71}(K)^{0.84}[/tex]
Therefore, this Cobb-Douglas production function exhibits the increasing returns to scale because the power of 2 is greater than 1. Under the condition of increasing returns to scale, an increase in the output of the firm is greater than the increase in the input of the firm.
Dumphy and Funke are rival tattoo artists in the small town of Feline. There are no other tattoo artists in town. It costs $30 to produce a Tweety Bird tattoo. Assume for simplicity that fixed costs are zero and that Dumphy and Funke perform identical work. For a while, there was too much demand for Funke and Dumphy to handle and they both charged $200 for a tatoo. But recently, demand has dropped significantly and there isn't enough work for both to fill their days at any price. However, there is some demand at all prices.a. What will be the equilabrium price that Dumphy and Funke will charge?b. What are the profits for Dumphy and Funke at the equilibrium price?c. What type of competition would Funke and Dumphy likely engage in after the decrease in demand?
Answer:
Part a: What will be the equilabrium price that Dumphy and Funke will charge?
Answer: Price charged = $30
Part b: What are the profits for Dumphy and Funke at the equilibrium price?
Answer: Profit on equilibrium price = $0
Part c: What type of competition would Funke and Dumphy likely engage in after the decrease in demand?
Answer: Price competition
Explanation:
Part a: What will be the equilabrium price that Dumphy and Funke will charge?
Answer:
Price charged by each of the artists will be equal to their marginal cost.
Thus, equilibrium P = MC = $30.
Part b: What are the profits for Dumphy and Funke at the equilibrium price?
Answer:
Equilibrium profits will be 0 at the equilibrium because price charged is equal to MC, leading to no profits.
Part c: What type of competition would Funke and Dumphy likely engage in after the decrease in demand?
Answer:
Price competition - as changes in price will lead to changes in demand and thus sales
In this limited market with two providers, the equilibrium price and profits cannot be decisively calculated without specific demand and supply information. However, the decline in demand will likely bring about price competition or differentiation in services or products.
Explanation:In this scenario, tattoo artists Dumphy and Funke operate in a duopoly market as there are no other competitors. As they perform identical work and have similar costs, they will likely end up charging the same price to remain competitive.
a) Equilibrium Price: The equilibrium price is determined by market forces - supply and demand. Given that demand has dropped, the equilibrium price would likely be lower than $200. However, the exact equilibrium price can't be determined without specific demand and supply information.
b) Profits: To calculate the profit, subtract the total cost of producing the service from the total revenue (price x quantity). As the cost of production for each tattoo is $30, anything above this would be profit. However, in a scenario of reduced demand, both artists might not have enough work to optimize their profits. Exact profits can't be determined without knowing how many tattoos they sell at the equilibrium price.
c) Type of Competition: After the decrease in demand, Dumphy and Funke could engage in price competition, where each attempts to undercut the other's price. Alternatively, they might differentiate their services by offering additional services or unique tattoo designs.

Sunland Company had 1570000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at December 31, 2020. On July 1, 2021 an additional 1259000 shares were issued for cash. Sunland also had stock options outstanding at the beginning and end of 2021 which allow the holders to purchase 373000 shares of common stock at $15 per share. The average market price of Sunland's common stock was $20 during 2021. What is the number of shares that should be used in computing diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021?
Answer:
3,202,000 shares.
Explanation:
Diluted earning per share (EPS) is an EPS that is calculated using both the common stock and all convertible securities like convertible preferred stock, convertible debt, equity options, warrants, or convertible bonds which are converted into common stock or equity.
Diluted EPS is different from an EPS that is calculated using only the common stock.
From the common stock, the number of shares that should be used in computing diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021 are the addition of all the shares obtained as follows:
Number of shares for diluted EPS = 1,570,000 + 1,259,000 + 373,000
= 3,202,000 shares.
Therefore, the number of shares that should be used in computing diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021 is 3,202,000 shares.
On September 30, Silver Corporation, a calendar year taxpayer, sold a parcel of land (basis of $400,000) for a $1 million note. The note is payable in five installments, with the first payment due next year. Because Silver did not elect out of the installment method, none of the $600,000 gain is taxed this year. Silver Corporation had a $300,000 deficit in accumulated E&P at the beginning of the year. Before considering the effect of the land sale, Silver had a deficit in current E&P of $50,000. Sam, the sole shareholder of Silver, has a basis of $200,000 in his stock. If silver distributes $900,000 to Sam on December 31,

In the economy of Cycladia, the total unemployment rate is equal to 11.0 percent, the structural unemployment rate is 2.42.4 percent, and the frictional unemployment rate is 4.4 percent. The cyclical unemployment rate equals ____ percent. (Enter your response rounded to one decimal place.)
The cyclical unemployment rate in the economy of Cycladia is 4.2%.
Explanation:The cyclical unemployment rate in the economy of Cycladia can be calculated by subtracting the sum of structural and frictional unemployment rates from the total unemployment rate.
In this case, the total unemployment rate is 11.0%, the structural rate is 2.4%, and the frictional rate is 4.4%.
So, to find the cyclical unemployment rate, we subtract 2.4% and 4.4% from 11.0%, resulting in a cyclical unemployment rate of 4.2%.
Final answer:
The cyclical unemployment rate in Cycladia is 4.2 percent, calculated by subtracting the sum of the frictional (4.4%) and structural (2.4%) unemployment rates from the total unemployment rate (11.0%).
Explanation:
To calculate the cyclical unemployment rate in Cycladia, we start by understanding that the total unemployment is the sum of frictional, structural, and cyclical unemployment. The total unemployment rate in Cycladia is 11.0 percent, the frictional unemployment rate is 4.4 percent, and the structural unemployment rate is 2.4 percent. To find the cyclical unemployment rate, we subtract the sum of frictional and structural unemployment rates from the total unemployment rate:
Total Unemployment = Frictional Unemployment + Structural Unemployment + Cyclical Unemployment11.0% = 4.4% + 2.4% + Cyclical UnemploymentCyclical Unemployment = 11.0% - (4.4% + 2.4%)Cyclical Unemployment = 11.0% - 6.8%Cyclical Unemployment = 4.2%The cyclical unemployment rate in Cycladia equals 4.2 percent.
While living in her home country of Tanzania, Sophia Kiwanuka signed an employment contract with Anne Margareth Bakilana, a Tanzanian living in Washington, D.C. Kiwanuka traveled to the United States to work as a babysitter and maid in Bakilana’s house. When Kiwanuka arrived, Bakilana confiscated her passport, held her in isolation, and forced her to work long hours under threat of having her deported. Kiwanuka worked seven days a week without breaks and was subjected to regular verbal and psychological abuse by Bakilana. Kiwanuka filed a complaint against Bakilana for intentional infliction of emotional distress, among other claims. Bakilana argued that Kiwanuka’s complaint should be dismissed because the allegations were insufficient to show outrageous intentional conduct that resulted in severe emotional distress. If you were the judge, in whose favor would you rule? Why? [Kiwanuka v. Bakilana, 844 F.Supp.2d 107 Miller, Roger LeRoy. Business Law: Text & Cases - The First Course - Summarized Case Edition (p. 123). Cengage Learning. Kindle Edition.
In this example, Kiwanuka is suing for intentional infliction of emotional distress. This can be defined as extreme and outrageous conduct which results in severe emotional distress to another person. This act must be severely extreme, to an extent that is not normally tolerated by society. In such cases, threatening conduct coupled with repeated annoyances can be enough to offer support to a claim of intentional infliction of emotional distress.
If I were the judge, I would rule in favor of Kiwanuka, as I the fact that Bakilana held Kiwanuka in isolation and confiscated her passport is evidence of extreme emotional distress.
Boston Cycles started October with 12 bicycles that cost $42 each. On October 16, Boston bought 40 bicycles at $68 each. On October 31, when the average cost per unit was $62.00, Boston sold 34 bicycles for $100 each. Boston's cost of goods sold under the FIFO, LIFO and weighted-average methods is summarized as follows: FIFO LIFO Weighted-average bicy Cost of Goods Sold $2,000 $ 2,312 $ 2,108 Which inventory costing method produced the lowest cost of goods sold?
Answer:
FIFO method of inventory valuation produced the lowest of goods sold at $2000
Explanation:
The implication of FIFO producing the lowest costs of good sold is that profit under FIFO method will be much higher since a lower costs of good sold is deducted from sales revenue to arrive at gross profit for the period
In addition, higher gross profit is also a pointer to higher net income and higher tax expense overall.
In order to manage tax exposure effectively,the LIFO method of valuation would be the best option as it has the highest costs of good sold,hence lower profit figure and lower tax liability
Hoi Chong Transport, Ltd., operates a fleet of delivery trucks in Singapore. The company has determined that if a truck is driven 114,000 kilometers during a year, the average operating cost is 12.7 cents per kilometer. If a truck is driven only 76,000 kilometers during a year, the average operating cost increases to 14.8 cents per kilometer.
Required:
1.Using the high-low method, estimate the variable and fixed cost elements of the annual cost of the truck operation. (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round the Variable cost per kilometer to 3 decimal places and Fixed cost answer to nearest whole dollar amount.)
2. Express the variable and fixed costs in the form Y = a + bX. (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round the Variable cost per kilometer to 3 decimal places.)
3. If a truck were driven 95,000 kilometers during a year, what total cost would you expect to be incurred? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Explanation:
The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:
Variable cost per hour = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High driven in kilometers - Low driven in kilometers)
where,
High operating cost = 114,000 km × 12.7%
= $14,478
Low operating cost = 76,000 km × 14.8%
= $11,248
So,
= ($14,478 - $11,248) ÷ (114,000 km - 76,000 km)
= $3,230 ÷ 38,000 km
= $0.085 per km
Now the fixed cost equal to
= High operating cost - (High driven in kilometers × Variable cost per km)
= $14,478 - (114,000 km × $0.085)
= $14,478 - $9,690
= $4,7882
2. The equation is as follows
Y = a + bx
So,
Total cost = $4,788 + 0.085X
3.
Y = a + bx
= $4,788 + 0.085 × 95,000
= $4,788 + $8,075
= $12,863
1. Variable Cost per Kilometer is $0.085 and Fixed Cost is $4,788 2. Cost Formula is [tex]\( Y = 4,788 + 0.085X \)[/tex]. 3.Total Cost for 95,000 Kilometers is $12,863.
To solve this problem, we'll use the high-low method to estimate the variable and fixed cost elements of the annual cost of truck operation.
Step 1: Determine Variable and Fixed Costs
Given Data:
High activity level: 114,000 kilometers, cost: 12.7 cents/km
Low activity level: 76,000 kilometers, cost: 14.8 cents/km
Total Costs at High and Low Activity Levels:
High activity total cost: [tex]\(114,000 \times 0.127 = 14,478\)[/tex] dollars
Low activity total cost: [tex]\(76,000 \times 0.148 = 11,248\)[/tex] dollars
Variable Cost per Kilometer:
[tex]\[ \text{Variable Cost per Kilometer} = \frac{\text{Cost at High Activity} - \text{Cost at Low Activity}}{\text{High Activity Kilometers} - \text{Low Activity Kilometers}} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Variable Cost per Kilometer} = \frac{14,478 - 11,248}{114,000 - 76,000} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Variable Cost per Kilometer} = \frac{3,230}{38,000} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Variable Cost per Kilometer} = 0.085 \text{ dollars} \][/tex]
Fixed Costs:
Using the variable cost per kilometer, we can calculate the fixed cost using the total cost equation for either the high or low point.
Let's use the high point:
[tex]\[ \text{Total Cost} = \text{Fixed Cost} + (\text{Variable Cost per Kilometer} \times \text{Kilometers Driven}) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 14,478 = \text{Fixed Cost} + (0.085 \times 114,000) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 14,478 = \text{Fixed Cost} + 9,690 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Fixed Cost} = 14,478 - 9,690 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Fixed Cost} = 4,788 \text{ dollars} \][/tex]
Step 2: Express the Costs in the Form [tex]\(Y = a + bX\)[/tex]
Where:
\(Y\) = Total Cost
\(a\) = Fixed Cost = $4,788
\(b\) = Variable Cost per Kilometer = $0.085
\(X\) = Number of Kilometers Driven
[tex]\[ Y = 4,788 + 0.085X \][/tex]
Step 3: Predict the Total Cost for 95,000 Kilometers
Using the cost formula:
[tex]\[ Y = 4,788 + 0.085 \times 95,000 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ Y = 4,788 + 8,075 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ Y = 12,863 \text{ dollars} \][/tex]
A significant improvement in auto technology will: A. Shift the supply of cars out and to right, decreasing the equilibrium price of cars, but increasing the equilibrium quantity. B. Shift the demand for cars in and to the left, lowering the equilibrium price and quantity of cars. C. Shift the supply of cars in and to the left, increasing the equilibrium price of cars, but lowering the equilibrium quantity. D. Shift the supply of cars in and to the left, raising the equilibrium price and quantity of cars. E. Shift the demand for cars in and to the left, raising the equilibrium price of cars, but lowering the equilibrium price.
Answer:
A. Shift the supply of cars out and to right, decreasing the equilibrium price of cars, but increasing the equilibrium quantity.
Explanation:
The effect of technology on supply is that it will shift supply to the right. As cost of production reduces, producers can have more output at the same cost.
There will be excess supply (surplus), so customers will pay less for the product.
The equilibrium quantity will also increase as more cars are available in the market.
This is illustrated in the attached diagram. Equillibrum price reduces from P1 to P2. The equillibrum quantity increases from Q1 to Q2.
Government can influence cost of production through taxes, regulations and subsidies. Therefore they also influence shift of supply curve.
A significant advancement in auto technology will shift the supply curve for cars outward and to the right, which will decrease the equilibrium price but increase the equilibrium quantity of cars, aligning with option A.
Explanation:An improvement in auto technology, such as more fuel-efficient cars, will lead to a change in the market for cars. This improvement is typically viewed as a positive change in production technology, which makes it cheaper to produce cars or allows more cars to be produced with the same resources. Consequently, the supply curve for cars shifts outward and to the right, indicating that manufacturers are willing and able to supply more cars at each price level. This shift will lead to a decrease in the equilibrium price of cars, as the increased supply puts downward pressure on prices. However, the equilibrium quantity of cars will increase because more cars are available at lower prices, which can boost sales. This scenario matches option A: A significant improvement in auto technology will: Shift the supply of cars out and to right, decreasing the equilibrium price of cars, but increasing the equilibrium quantity.

Assume that the spot rate of the singaproe dollar is $.664. The ADR of a Singapore firm is convertibe into 3 shares of stock. The price of an ADRis $20. What is the share price of the firm in Singapore dollars
Answer: 10
Explanation:
1 ADR = $20
1 ADR = 3 Shares
Hence,
3 Shares =$20
1 share =$20/3
1 Singapore dollar =$0. 664
1$= 1/0.664 =1.506
20$ =20 x 1.506 /3
=10.10

The calculation is as follows:
1 ADR = $20
1 ADR = 3 Shares
So,
3 Shares =$20
1 share =$20 ÷÷3
1 Singapore dollar =$0. 664
Now
1$= 1 ÷ 0.664 =1.506
And,
20$ =[tex]20 \times 1.506 \div 3[/tex]

A manufacturer of brand A jeans has daily production costs of Upper C equals 0.3 x squared minus 120 x plus 12 comma 585, where C is the total cost (in dollars) and x is the number of jeans produced. How many jeans should be produced each day in order to minimize costs? What is the minimum daily cost?
Answer:
a. 200 jeans should be produced each day in order to minimize costs.
b. The minimum daily cost is $108,585
Explanation:
a. How many jeans should be produced each day in order to minimize costs?
Given C = 0.3x^2 - 120x + 120,585 ........................... (1)
Cost is minimized when MC = C' = 0
To obtain MC, equation (1) is differentiate with respect to x as follows:
dC/dx = MC = C' = 0.6x - 120 = 0 ............................... (2)
From equation (2), we can now solve for x follows:
0.6x - 120 = 0
0.6x = 120
x = 120 ÷ 0.6
x = 200
Therefore, 200 jeans should be produced each day in order to minimize costs.
b. What is the minimum daily cost?
Substitute 200 for x in equation (1) to have:
C = 0.3(200^2) - 120(200) + 120,585
= 12,000 - 24,000 + 120,585
C = $108,585
Therefore, the minimum daily cost is $108,585.
a. 200 jeans should be produced each day in order to minimize costs.
b. The minimum daily cost is $108,585
On July 1, an investor holds 50,000 shares of a certain stock. The market price is $30 per share. The investor is interested in hedging against movements in the market over the next month and decides to use the September Mini S&P 500 futures contract. The index is currently 1,500 and one contract is for delivery of $50 times the index. The beta of the stock is 1.3.
What strategy should the investor follow?
Answer:
The strategy the investor should follow is to short the September Mini S&P 500 futures contract by 26
Explanation:
Parameters:
Portfolio value= P = 50,000 * 30 = $1,500,000
Beta of stock β = 1.3
Index price = 1,500
Multiplier = $50
Futures Value A = 1,500*50 = $75,000
The formula to calculate number of contract N;
N= β ∗ P/A
N= 1.3*1,500,000/75,000
N= 26
The strategy the investor should follow is to short the September Mini S&P 500 futures contract by 26
To hedge their portfolio, the investor should enter into a short position of approximately 26 September Mini S&P 500 futures contracts. This allows the investor to mitigate risk associated with market movements.
Explanation:In this scenario, the investor is looking to hedge their portfolio using the September Mini S&P 500 futures contract. Given that their portfolio has a beta of 1.3, it suggests that the portfolio is more volatile than the market. The use of futures can help to reduce this risk.
The investor needs to calculate the number of futures contracts to enter into, which can be calculated using the formula:Hedging Ratio = Beta x (Value of the Portfolio / Future Price). In this case, the Value of the Portfolio is $1,500,000 (50,000 shares x $30/share). While, the Future Price is $75,000 (1,500 index value x $50). Plugging these into the formula, the investor would need approximately 26 futures contracts to hedge their portfolio.
So, the investor should short 26, September Mini S&P 500 futures contracts.

Arundel Company uses percentage of sales to estimate uncollectibles. At the end of the fiscal year, December 31, 2018, Accounts Receivable has a balance of $78,000 and had a total of $805,000 in credit sales. Arundel assumes that 2.0% of sales will eventually be uncollectible. before adjustment, the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts had a credit balance of 4,000. What dollar amount should be credited to Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts at year end?
Answer: The dollar amount that should be credited to Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts at year end is $12,100.
Explanation: As provided in the question, Arundel Company already had a credit balance of $4,000 in allowance for uncollectible accounts, before adjustment. Remember, the allowance account is usually in credit balance and mapped to the accounts receivable account to show the net balance of the receivables that is recoverable, and to show the true and fair position of that amount.
The 2% of credit sales (2% of $805,000) is $16,100 - this should serve as additional provision for bad debts expense at year end and the following journals should have been recorded: Debit Bad debt expense $16,100; Credit Allowance for uncollectible accounts $16,100. But there is $4,000 balance in the allowance account, which serves as the opening balance. The amount deemed irrecoverable during the year is $16,1000, which should represent the additional provision but since there is an exisiting balance in the allowance account, the differential would be recorded as additional provision ($16,100 - $4,000).
Mustard Corporation (a C corporation) owns 15% of the stock of Burgundy Corporation (a C corporation), which pays an annual dividend to its shareholders. Mustard is considering the purchase of additional shares of Burgundy stock. Would this stock purchase affect the amount of dividends received deduction that Mustard can claim
Answer:
Yes, it will affect it.
Explanation:
The dividends received deduction (DRD) refers to a US federal tax law that allows some corporation that are paid dividend by related entities to deduct certain percentage of the dividend received from their income tax depending on their percentage of ownership of the related entity that paid the dividend.
The three criteria or tiers that determines how much to deduct as DRD are as follows:
1. Generally, the DRD a corporation is qualified for is 70% of the dividend received.
2. A DRD equals to 80% of the dividend received can be deducted if the corporation holds more than 20% but less than 80% shareholding of the company that paid the dividend.
3. If the corporation holds more than 80% shareholding of the company that paid the dividend, a DRD of 100% of the dividend applies.
Therefore, additional stock purchase will affect the amount of dividends received deduction that Mustard can claim.
Final answer:
Purchasing additional shares of Burgundy Corporation could affect Mustard Corporation's dividends received deduction (DRD). The impact depends on whether the additional shares purchased increase Mustard's ownership stake to reach certain thresholds, which would allow a higher percentage of the dividends to be deducted from taxable income.
Explanation:
The purchase of additional shares of Burgundy Corporation stock by Mustard Corporation would affect the dividends received deduction (DRD) that Mustard can claim for tax purposes. The DRD allows a corporation that receives a dividend from another corporation in which it has an ownership stake to deduct a portion of that dividend from its taxable income. Notably, the amount of deduction depends on the percentage of ownership. Owning more shares typically entitles the shareholder to a larger deduction. Under U.S. tax law, corporations that own less than 20% of another corporation can deduct 50% of dividends received, those owning between 20% to 80% can deduct 65%, and those owning more than 80% can deduct 100%. If Mustard Corporation purchases additional shares and its ownership stake in Burgundy Corporation increases to meet one of these thresholds, the DRD percentage that Mustard Corporation can claim may increase, leading to a potentially more favorable tax treatment of the received dividends.
According to the dynamic AD-AS model, what is the most common cause of inflation? A. AD increases by more than LRAS. B. Total spending increases faster than total production. C. The U.S. Mint prints too much currency. D. All of the above. E. A and B only.
Answer: Option E
Explanation:
Inflation is an economic term that refers to a situation of continuous increase in the price level of goods and services. Inflation can either be as a result of a rise in demand or due to a rise in the production cost.
When the available resources in the economy are used in the production process, such economy will have little supply of products in the long run.
When there is an increase in aggregate demand as a result of other factors apart from the price of the product, there will be a rightward shift of the aggregate demand curve on the LRAS.
The rightward shift in aggregate demand curve will result into an increase in price but the quantity supplied does not increase which leads to inflation.
Answer:
A and B only.
That is
A. AD increases by more than LRAS.
B. Total spending increases faster than total production.
Explanation:
Inflation can be defined as loss of value of goods and services. The price of a basket of goods and services increases over time, meaning the purchasing power of money reduces.
In the AD-AS model inflation occurs of total spending occurs faster than total production. Goods and services become scarce, there is too much money chasing scare product, prices will go up resulting in reduction of purchasing power of money (inflation).
When AD increases more than the LRAS (long run aggregate supply) it results in shortage of goods and increase in price of goods.
A company had calculated net income to be $77,850 based on the unadjusted trial balance. The following adjusting entries were then made for: Salaries and wages owed but not yet paid of $820 Interest earned but not received from investments of $780 Prepaid insurance premiums amounting to $580 have expired Unearned revenue in the amount of $780 has now been earned.
Answer:
Adjusted net income will be $78,010
Explanation:
According to the Accrual concept all the accrued expenses should be recognized and deducted from the unadjusted net income and all the earned revenues should be recognized and added to unadjusted net Income.
Salaries and wages owed but not yet paid of $820 is an expense which is accrued but not been paid it should be recorded and deducted from the unadjusted net income as earlier expenses were understated.
Interest earned but not received from investments of $780 is the revenue recognized but not been received until now. Accrual Concept requires that when revenue is realized it should be recognized into the accounting records. So it should be added to the net income.
Prepaid insurance premiums amounting to $580 have expired is actually an accrued expense which previously recorded as prepaid expense. It should be deducted from the net income as it is a expense which need to be recognized.
Unearned revenue in the amount of $780 has now been earned. Now it should be added to the net income because it is a revenue item that should be recognized as it is recorded as unearned revenue earlier.
Net income to be $77,850 based on the unadjusted trial balance.
Adjusted Net Income = $77,850 - $820 + $780 - 580 + 780 = $78,010
Final answer:
Adjusted net income is calculated by considering the effects of adjusting entries for unpaid salaries and wages, interest earned, expired insurance premiums, and now-earned unearned revenue on the net income previously based on the unadjusted trial balance. The adjusted net income is $78,010 after accounting for these changes.
Explanation:
The question involves making adjusting entries to a company's financial records to reflect events that have occurred but are not yet recorded in the accounts. This process is a key part of the accounting cycle, ensuring that the financial statements reflect the true financial position of the company at the end of the accounting period. Adjusting entries for salaries and wages, interest, prepaid insurance, and unearned revenue will affect both the company's balance sheet and income statement.
To calculate the adjusted net income, we need to consider the effect of these adjustments on the originally calculated net income:
Interest earned (revenue increases, increasing net income): $780
Expired insurance premiums (expense increases, reducing net income): $580
$77,030 + $780 (increase in accounts receivable - interest)
$77,230 + $780 (decrease in deferred revenue)
Adjusted net income: $78,010
The president of a company gave two talks, one on Monday and one on Tuesday. A total of 405 employees attended the Monday talk, 275 attended the Tuesday talk and 55 went to both. How many employees attended at least one of the talks
Answer:
625 employees
Explanation:
Given that,
Let the Monday talk be A and the Tuesday talk be B,
Employees attend Monday talk: I A I = 405
Employees attend Tuesday talk: I B I = 275
Employees attend both talks: I A ∩ B I = 55
Employees attended at least one of the talks: I A ∪ B I
= I A I + I B I - I A ∩ B I
= 405 + 275 - 55
= 625
Your firm needs to invest in a new delivery truck. The life expectancy of the delivery truck is five years. You can purchase a new delivery truck for an upfront cost of $200,000, or you can lease a truck from the manufacturer for five years for a monthly lease payment of $4000 (paid at the end of each month). Your firm can borrow at 6% APR with quarterly compounding.
The present value of the lease payments for the delivery truck is closest to $____.
Answer:
The present value of the lease payments for the delivery truck is closest to $207,050.
Explanation:
First we need to calculate the monthly discount rate for the lease arrangement.
EAR = (1 + APR / k) [tex]^{k}[/tex]- 1
= (1 + 0.06 / 4)[tex]^{4}[/tex] - 1 = 0.06136 or 6.14%
Monthly rate = (1 + EAR)([tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex]) - 1
= (1.06136)[tex]^{\frac{1}{12}}[/tex] - 1 = 0.004975 = 0.4975%
Now we can apply the PVA formula in excel or calculate the PV of the lease or by a calculator:
I = 0.4975
N = 60 (5 years × 12 months/yr)
FV = 0
PMT = $4000
PV = 207,051.61.

In 2016, Chaya Corporation, an accrual basis, calendar year taxpayer, provided services to clients andearned $25,000. The clients signed notes receivable to Chaya that have a fair market value of$22,000 at year-end. In addition, Chaya sold a 36-month service contract on June 1, 2016, and received payment in full of $12,000.
How much income does Chaya report from these transactions in 2016?
Answer:
$27,333.33
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of income reported is shown below:
= Provided services to the customer + Payment received × number of months ÷ given number of months
= $25,000 + $12,000 × 7 months ÷ 36 months
= $25,000 + $2,333.33
= $27,333.33
The seven months is calculated from the June 1 to December 31. We assume the books are closed on December 31
Chaya Corporation reports a total income of $27,333.33 for 2016, which includes $25,000 from services provided and $2,333.33 from the service contract sold on June 1, 2016.
For Chaya Corporation, which is an accrual basis, calendar year taxpayer, the income reported for 2016 from the transactions mentioned can be determined as follows:
1. Services Provided: Chaya earned $25,000 from providing services. Under the accrual basis of accounting, income is recognized when services are performed, regardless of when cash is received. Thus, Chaya reports the full amount of $25,000 as income.
2. Fair Market Value of Notes Receivable: Chaya received notes receivable with a fair market value of $22,000 for the services. However, for accrual accounting, the income is recorded based on the amount earned, not the lower fair market value of the note receivable. Therefore, the $22,000 is not considered.
3. Service Contract: Chaya sold a 36-month service contract on June 1, 2016, and received $12,000. For accrual purposes, income must be allocated over the period the service is provided. For 2016, Chaya should report ($12,000 / 36 months) * 7 months = $2,333.33 as income earned from the service contract in 2016.
$25,000 from services provided$2,333.33 from the service contractTotal income reported for 2016: $25,000 + $2,333.33 = $27,333.33

P3= $3.40(1.24)3(1.06) / (.14 − .06)
P3= $85.89
Therefore the price of the stock today is the PV of the first three dividends, we then add it with the PV of the Year 3 stock price.
Hence the price of the stock today will be:
P0= $3.40(1.24) / 1.14 + $3.40(1.24)2/ 1.142+ $3.40(1.24)3/ 1.143+ $85.89 / 1.143
P0= $70.07
The current shape price is $70.07
