Gabriele Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with eight years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and selling for $964. At this price, the bonds yield 6.7 percent. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds?

Answer:

The value of Liability is $15,993,281

Explanation:

Red Sun Rising Corp. is making annuity Payment of $1,100,000 for a period of 20 years. The value of this liability can be calculated by taking net present value of all future cashflows.

Present value of Annuity = P [ 1 - ( ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ]

Present value of Annuity = $1,100,000 [ 1 - ( ( 1 + 3.25% )^-20 ) / 3.25% ]

Present value of Annuity = $1,100,000 [ 1 - ( ( 1 + 0.0325 )^-20 ) / 0.0325 ]

Present value of Annuity = $1,100,000 [ 1 - ( ( 1.0325 )^-20 ) / 0.0325 ]

Present value of Annuity = $15,993,280.76

The value of the liability today for Red Sun Rising Corp.'s lease is $17,181,350.71.

To determine the value of the liability, we need to calculate the present value of the lease payments. The present value of an annuity formula can be used for this calculation. The formula is:

PV = PMT x (1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r

Where PV is the present value, PMT is the annual payment, r is the interest rate, and n is the number of periods.

Substituting the values into the formula, we get:
PV = $1,100,000 x (1 - (1 + 0.0325)^-20) / 0.0325

Calculating this gives us the value of the liability today as $17,181,350.71.

Answer:

The diluted earnings per share is $5.25

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to compute the diluted earnings per share.

To calculate this, we employ the mathematical formula below for diluted earnings per share:

Diluted earnings per share

= (Total income - preference dividends) /( outstanding shares + diluted shares)

To be able to use this formula, we need a formula expression to get the value of the diluted shares.

Diluted shares = Options issued - value of options

Also,

Amount paid towards shares = Options issued * Exercise price per share = 1,200 * 6 = $ 7,200

Value of options = Amount paid towards shares / Current market price = $ 7,200 /$ 15= 480

Hence, diluted shares = 1,200 - 480 = 720

Thus, the diluted earnings per share =

( 51,000) / ( 9,000 +720) = $5.25 per share

Answer:

The amount allocated to ending inventory for June is $2,753

Explanation:

The FIFO is a method used to account value for inventory. Under the method, the first item of inventory purchased is the first one sold.

A physical count of merchandise inventory on June 30 reveals that there are 350 units on hand.

Following the FIFO, 350 units on hand include:

290 units were purchased on June 28: $2,291

60 units were purchased on June 15: $1,540/200 x 60 = $462

The amount allocated to ending inventory = $2,291 + $462 = $2,753

Answer:

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual hours

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The production used 2.5 labor hours per finished unit, and the company paid $21 per hour, totaling $52.50 per unit of finished product.

We weren't provided with enough information to solve the problem. We need estimated production hours and rates. But, I can leave the formula to solve it.

To calculate direct labor rate variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Hours

Answer:

Net Cash Increase of $115

Explanation:

Receivable Increases by $150 means a cash outflow in receivable by $150 because Increase in Receivable indicates that there are more sale on credit is made than cash received from the customers. So, the outflow in the receivable section is more than the inflow.

Inventory Decreases by $95 means the inventory sold during the period is more than purchases / manufactured. It result in cash inflow as cash is not being held in the form of inventory.

Accounts Payable increases by $225 means that company is making less payment to its suppliers, so that its balance has been increase. Company made more purchases than payment made to suppliers. Net cash Inflow is observed from this.

Common dividend payment of $55 means a direct cash outflow because actual cash has been paid during the year.

Net Effect on Cash = Cash inflows - Cash outflows

Net Effect on Cash = ( Inventory decrease + Accounts Payable increase ) - ( Accounts Receivables increase + Common dividend payment )

Net Effect on Cash = ( $95 + $225 ) - ( $150 + 55 )

Net Effect on Cash = $320 - $205

Net Effect on Cash = $115

Net Cash Increase of $115

Cost recovery deduction = $1520

Solution:

Given data

purchase price = $38,000

used the car  business  = 80%

used the car  personal = 20%

solution

cost recovery limit are,

cost recovery limit = asset value × statutory % × mid quarter convention  

We recognize the 5-year MACRS convention of car and the depreciation rate of MACRS is 20 percent in the first year.

so we use MACRS statutory % method

cost recovery limit = $38000 × 5%

cost recovery limit = $1900

we know maximum limit is $3160

so cost of recovery is $1900

so,

cost recovery deduction is

cost recovery deduction = cost recovery limit - personal use

cost recovery deduction = $1900 - ( $1900 × 20% )

cost recovery deduction = $1520

The Firm Should Buy the New Equipment since an incremental Profit of $ 1500 is expected from this decision.

A cost-volume-profit analysis suggests the firm should buy the new equipment and increase the selling price to yield a higher profit despite a decrease in volume. The firm breaks even in the first scenario and makes a profit in the second scenario.

The subject of your question revolves around cost-volume-profit analysis. This is a method used in managerial economics to understand the relationship between a firm's costs, its production volume, and its profits. This is done by considering the impact of different levels of output and costs on a company's net income.

In order to determine whether the firm should buy the new equipment, we need to conduct a cost-volume-profit analysis. If the firm goes ahead with its plan for improved quality, the total cost (including fixed and variable costs) will be $20,000 + ($0.60 x 50,000) = $50,000. Given their plan to stay at the $1.00 selling price, the total revenue will be $1.00 x 50,000 = $50,000. As you can see, the total cost equals the revenue, meaning there is neither a profit nor loss, effectively breaking even in this scenario.

In the other scenario, where the firm increases the selling price to $1.10 and volume drops to 45,000 units, the revenue would now be $1.10 x 45,000 = $49,500. The total cost will be $20,000 + ($0.60 x 45,000) = $47,000. This means the firm would make a profit as the revenue is higher than the total cost. Therefore, under these changed circumstances, it would be advisable for the company to buy the new equipment and increase the selling price.

Answer:

9.32%

Explanation:

The formula to compute the required rate of return is shown below:

Market price per share = Next year dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)

where,

Market price per share is $30.16

Next year dividend is

= $1.24 + $1.24 × 5%

= $1.24 + 0.062

= $1.302

And, the growth rate is 5%

So, the required rate of return is

$30.16 = ($1.302) ÷ (Required rate of return - 5%)

Let us assume the required rate of return be X

So,

$30.16X - $1.508 = $1.302

After solving this, the required rate of return is 9.32%

A) how the entity's non separately stated income is $82000

to calculate the non separately stated income

(Total long term stated income) - (total short term stated income)

long term stated income

book value = $100000

long term capital loss/gain = $6000

book value + long term capital loss = $106000 ( total long term stated income )

short term stated income

tax exempt = $3000

dividends = $9000

1231 gain = $7000

net passive income = $5000

total short term stated income = 3000 + 9000 + 7000 + 5000 = $24000

hence non separately stated income = $106000 - $24000 = $82000

B) To show how one of he kitsch shareholder is bearing $205000 income or loss

Answer: b. means that an agency does not automatically receive its previous year’s base budget.

Explanation: By definition, zero-based budgeting (ZBB) implies commencing a budget from a zero base and justifying each segment of the budget rather than merely adding to historical budgets or actual.

Conventionally, budgets are queried when they show variations from previous years but in ZBB, there is a positive attempt to eliminate inefficiencies and slack from current expenditures.

The concept of ZBB was developed by Peter Pyhor in 1969 and identified the following structured systematic approach to budgeting:

* organisations are divided into sections known as decision unit or expense control units

* decision units are clearly defined

* for each unit, a decision package is defined for the minimum level of spending and this sets the tone for the cost, purpose, and performance measurement and consequences

* similar decision package is defined for incremental allocations to activities

* decision package is specified for alternative methods of performing those activities

* decision packages are ranked

Example of ZBB is: if an organization notices a percentage increase on an expenditure line, the organization can compare all available and suitable alternatives before taking that increase as bona fide, the organization can also consider using its outsourced or internal employees to achieve same purpose. Proper scrutiny is required in ZBB unlike the traditional budgeting process.

There are other types of budgets like rolling and flexible budgeting.

The expected rate of return for Walter Utilities stock, which trades at $28.00 and is expected to pay a $2.05 dividend growing at 6.50% annually, is calculated using the dividend discount model to be 13.82%.

The question asks how to calculate the expected rate of return on a stock from Walter Utilities, which pays an annual dividend and expects a constant growth in this dividend. Since the stock currently trades for $28.00, and the company will pay a $2.05 dividend at the end of the year that grows at a rate of 6.50% annually, we can use the dividend discount model (DDM) to calculate the required rate of return.

The formula for the expected rate of return using DDM is:

Expected Rate of Return = (Dividend Payment / Current Stock Price) + Dividend Growth Rate

Using the provided figures:

Expected Rate of Return = ($2.05 / $28.00) + 6.50%

Expected Rate of Return = 7.32% + 6.50%

Expected Rate of Return = 13.82%

This is the expected rate of return for Walter Utilities stock.

The expected rate of return for Walter Utilities is calculated using the Gordon Growth Model and is found to be 13.82%, considering the given dividend, growth rate, and stock price.

To calculate the expected rate of return for Walter Utilities, we can use the Gordon Growth Model (also known as the Dividend Discount Model). This model assumes that dividends will grow at a constant rate indefinitely. The formula for the model is:

P = D / (r - g)

Where P is the current stock price, D is the dividend per share one year from now, r is the required rate of return (which we are solving for), and g is the growth rate of dividends.

Rearranging the formula to solve for r:

r = (D / P) + g

Using the numbers given, the expected dividend (D) is $2.05, the growth rate (g) is 6.50%, and the current stock price (P) is $28.00.

Therefore, the expected rate of return (r) would be:

r = ($2.05 / $28.00) + 0.0650

After calculating, we find that:

r= 0.0732 + 0.0650

r = 0.1382 or 13.82%

This implies that an investor would expect a 13.82% return on their investment in Walter Utilities, considering the expected dividend and growth rate.

Answer:

None of the choice is correct;  The correct answer is $459,000

Explanation:

The company is just breaking even at current volume of 51,000 books sold per year, then its revenue = total cost

↔ unit sold * selling price = fixed cost + unit sold * variable cost

↔  51,000 * $22 = fixed cost + 51,000 * $13

↔ Fixed cost = $1,122,000 - $663,000

↔ Fixed cost = $459,000

Enterprenural ability= $12 billion

Explanation:

Enterprenural ability can be defined as the human resource that gives the ability to combine other resources available to a business to create a product, make non routine decisions, innovate, and bear risks.

The main traits of an enterpreneur are research, focus, cash management, communication, and learning.

In the given instance a company buys four resources (labour, land, capital, and enterprenural ability) for $110 billion from households.

Enterprenural ability= Total spent- wages - rent- interest

Enterprenural ability= 110 billion- 64 billion- 12 billion- 22 billion

Enterprenural ability= $12 billion

Households are paid $12 billion for providing entrepreneurial ability. This is calculated by subtracting the total funds received in wages, rent, and interest from the total resources purchased by businesses.

To find out how much households are paid for providing entrepreneurial ability, we need to subtract the wages, rent, and interest that households receive from the total amount businesses pay for the four resources. So, to calculate this:

Therefore, households are paid $12 billion for providing entrepreneurial ability.

Explanation:

The period cost is the cost that is incurred with the passage of time. It mainly involves the major portion of the selling and administration expenses like - selling expenses, advertising expenses. It is a fixed cost

While the product cost involves the cost related to the product. It involves direct material cost, direct labor cost, and the manufacturing overhead cost. It is a variable cost

So, the period cost is the operating cost that are expenses when it is incurred

Whereas the product cost is treat as an asset for external financial reporting. First this is recorded as an asset on the balance sheet until asset is sold and then it is transferred to the cost of goods sold i.e expense account

Now on the income statement the product cost or cost of goods sold is subtracted from the sales revenue so that the gross profit could come

Then the period cost is deducted to find out the operating income

Now the classification of the product cost and the period cost are as follows

Shaft and handle of weed trimmer  = Direct material cost

Motor of weed trimmer   = Direct material cost

Factory labor for workers assembling weed trimmers  = Direct labor cost

Nylon thread used by the weed trimmer (not traced to the product)  = Manufacturing overhead cost

Glue to hold housing together   = Manufacturing overhead cost

Plant janitorial wages   = Manufacturing overhead cost

Depreciation on factory equipment   = Manufacturing overhead cost

Rent on plant   = Manufacturing overhead cost

Sales commissions  = Period cost

Administrative salaries  = Period cost

Plant utilities  = Manufacturing overhead cost

Shipping costs to deliver finished weed trimmers to customers = Period cost

Answer:

The price of the common stock when it was first issued was $19 per share

Explanation:

Price at which the stock is issued is consists of Par value and add-in-capital in excess value. It is recorded in different accounts and reported as separately on the balance sheet.

Common Stock at par value of $12 = $2,280,000

Number of outstanding shares = 2,280,000 / 12 = 190,000 shares

Paid-in-Capital in Excess = $1,330,000 / 190,000 = $7 per share

As we know

Price of share = Par value + Paid in capital in excess

Price of share = $12 + $7 = $19 per share

Explanation:

Find attached.

The bond's issue price depends on the market yield at that time. Journal entries at issuance debit Cash and credit Bonds Payable. When purchased by a company, it debits Investments and credits Cash.

Firstly, we need to compute the price of the bond. The price at issue is the present value of the future cash flows, which are interest payments of ($51 million * 10%)/2 = $2.55M every six months for 40 periods (20 years * 2) and the face value of $51M at the end of the 20 years. Using the semi-annual market yield of 12%/2 = 6% (1-a) or 9%/2 = 4.5% (2-a), the present values of the cash flows can be calculated. Journal entries would consist of debiting 'Cash' and crediting 'Bonds Payable' for the issue price (1-b and 2-b).

For instance Broadcourt Electronics, the entry would debit 'Investments' and credit 'Cash' for the calculated price of the bonds (3).

Final answer:

To determine the APR and EAR for the finance company's loan, specific financial formulas must be utilized that incorporate the effects of compounding, which are not provided by the simple interest quote.

Explanation:

The local finance company quoting an interest rate of 18.1% on a $39,000 loan results in an annual interest amount of $7,059. Given that the total repayment amount is $46,059 to be paid over 12 months, the monthly payment would be $3,838.25. However, the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) and Effective Annual Rate (EAR) are not immediately evident from these numbers, as they would incorporate the effect of compounding on the interest rate.

To find the APR, which is the nominal interest rate without compounding, we can use the formula provided by financial regulations, which typically involves dividing the total amount of interest paid by the loan amount and then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage. It is important to note that while the APR provides a way to compare different loans, it does not account for the effects of compounding.

To calculate the EAR, which includes the effects of compounding, we use a different formula that takes into account the frequency of compounding within the year. In cases where monthly payments are involved, this would be compounded monthly. The EAR formula reflects the actual yearly rate that borrowers would pay if they account for compounding within the year.

The legally quoted APR for the loan is 18.12%,

and the effective annual rate (EAR) is 19.76%. These rates account for the monthly interest and compounding effects over the year.

Calculating the Required Interest Rates

To determine the legally required quoted interest rate (APR) and the effective annual rate (EAR) for a loan, you can follow these steps:

a. Annual Percentage Rate (APR):

The APR is the nominal interest rate considering the costs associated with the loan. Here, we calculate the monthly interest rate first:

The total interest [tex]APR = 0.09843 * 12 * 100 = 118.12%.[/tex]the year is $7,059.

The principal is $39,000.

The monthly payment is $3,838.25.

The monthly interest rate can be calculated using the formula: R = (payment/principal) - 1.

So, R = $3,838.25 / ($39,000 / 12) - 1 = 0.09843.

Convert the monthly rate to an annual rate: APR = 0.09843 * 12 * 100 = 118.12%.

APR = 18.12%

b. Effective Annual Rate (EAR):

The effective annual rate considers the compounding effect:

The EAR is calculated using the formula:[tex](1 + monthly interest rate)^12 - 1.[/tex]

With the monthly rate R = 0.09843, we get:

[tex](1 + 0.09843)^12 - 1 = 0.19759.[/tex]

EAR = 19.76%

Therefore, the legally quoted APR is 18.12%, and the effective annual rate (EAR) is 19.76%.

Answer: The supply of beef would increase, decreasing beef prices.

Explanation: if there is a decrease in the price of the feed grains used to feed cattle, it would leads to an increase in the supply of beef in the market and consequently decrease the price of beef in the market. It would result to an increase in the supply of beef because the cattle rearers would have enough feeds for the cattle which will make them grow faster.

A decrease in the cost of feed grains would likely increase the supply of beef, which could lead to a decrease in the price of beef. This is because lower production costs would allow farmers to raise more cattle for beef, thus increasing supply.

If the price of feed grains that are used to feed cattle falls, it reduces the cost of producing beef. Consequently, this may lead to an increase in the supply of beef as cattle farmers may find it more profitable to raise more cattle for beef production. This, in turn, could potentially lead to a decrease in beef prices because when supply increases relative to demand, prices typically fall. Therefore, the correct option is d. The supply of beef would increase, decreasing beef prices.

Final answer:

Choosing between re-performing a client's account reconciliation and inspecting documentation depends on the assurance needed, risk of misstatement, quality of client documentation, and historical errors. Re-performance is more direct and reliable but also more time-consuming compared to documentation inspection.

Explanation:

When planning to test a client's account reconciliation, the choice between re-performing the reconciliation and inspecting documentation depends on several factors. Re-performance might be chosen over documentation inspection if there's a need for higher assurance, when the risk of material misstatement is deemed to be high, or when the documentation provided by the client is not sufficiently detailed or objective. Moreover, if there's a history of errors in the client's accounting processes or discrepancies noted in previous audits, an auditor might opt for re-performance to verify the accuracy of the current reconciliation process.

Re-performance provides the auditor with first-hand evidence regarding the effectiveness of the client's internal controls and the accuracy of their account reconciliation. It is a more direct and often a more reliable method of testing than examining documentation, which could be incomplete or misleading. However, it is also more time-consuming and costly. In contrast, inspecting documentation can be efficient and effective when the internal controls environment is strong, and no significant issues have arisen in the past.

Explanation:

In this case, the clause of a contract stipulates that, in the event of a potential breaches or infringements of the contract, a certain percentage of the dollar is to be payed. However, liquid is specified, deposited, or fixed. Liquidated judgments are therefore distinguished from fines. A fine shall be incurred in case of a default or breach of a contract which shall penalize the infringement by the party. The fine shall be paid. Provisions for liquidated losses usually often apply. However the clause covering the amount will not be applied, and recapture will not be limited to actual penalties, where, however, the courts think that includes a fine.

When a legal rule needs to be settled on liquidated damages or fines, the courts will address these two issues. The first question is: was it clear that in case of an violation it would be impossible to measure damages before the deal has been concluded?  

Second, I would like to ask:

Was the figure a fair and not unreasonable calculation of damages? The deal will still be restitution in this case. The bond that recovers goods, properties or funds previously transferred to each other. If the goods or properties may be recovered, they have to be recovered. Now if the property or product is taken, it is appropriate to render restitution in an quantity of equal dollars. Restitution may be appropriate, though, when a contract is terminated.

In this contract dispute, the issue is whether Carnack can retain Willard's deposit as liquidated damages. The enforceability of liquidated damages clauses depends on the reasonableness of the amount and whether it represents a good faith estimate of the actual damages. In this case, the deposit amount of $10,000 may be considered reasonable based on the subsequent sale price of the property.

In this case, the issue is whether the provision in the contract that allows Carnack to retain the deposit as liquidated damages is enforceable. Liquidated damages are predetermined amounts of money agreed upon in a contract that serves as compensation for a party's breach of the contract. The general rule is that liquidated damages are enforceable if the amount is reasonable and represents a good faith estimate of the actual damages that would be incurred.

In this case, the deposit of $10,000 represents 10% of the purchase price, which is a common practice in real estate transactions. Moreover, Carnack was able to sell the house and lot to Balkova for $105,000, which is $5,000 more than the original purchase price. Therefore, it can be argued that the amount of the deposit is a reasonable estimate of the damages suffered by Carnack as a result of Willard's breach.

Based on these factors, it is likely that Carnack is correct in claiming the deposit as liquidated damages. However, it is important to note that the enforceability of liquidated damages clauses can vary depending on the jurisdiction. Therefore, it would be advisable for Carnack to consult with a local attorney to confirm the validity of the provision in this specific case.
