Payment Loan
Amt InterestRate
MonthlyRate
NumberMonths

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

This can be achieve using Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet. Please find attached the Excel file

Explanation:

we will need the following variables:

Payment (Down payment) LoanAmt InterestRate MonthlyRate NumberMonths

For clarity of will assume the following

Price of Car = $30,000

No. of Payment (Down Payment)= $10,000

Loan Amount =$20,000

Interest Rate = 15%

Number of Months =12

Repayment =12

We will need the following formulas:

Interest Rate =15/100 =0.15

Monthly Rate = Interest Rate/12 = 0.0125

Payment =[ LoanAmt * MonthlyRate * (1 + MonthlyRate)^NumberMonths]÷ [((1 + MonthlyRate)^NumberMonths) – 1]

Let LA= Loan Amount

MR= Monthly Rate

n=Number of Months

Payment = LA*MR*(1+MR)^n/(( 1+MR)^n-1)

Now (1+MR)n = (1+0.0125)^12 = 1.1608

Payment = (20,000*0.0125*1.1608)/(1.1608-1)

Payment = 290.2/0.1608 =1,804.7

This can be implement using a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. Please find attached the Excel spreadsheet.

The INPUTS are the column whose heading is in green. The Variable is the column whose heading is in blue color.

PAYMENT is the last column in the Excel spreadsheet.

(If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts. Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually.)

Answers

Final answer:

The three transactions of the Oriole Company involve accounting for sales, cost of goods sold, sales returns and allowances, and subsequent payment collection. Journal entries are provided for each transaction.

Explanation:

The first transaction on December 3 involves a sale of merchandise. There are two journal entries required: one to record the revenue from the sale and one to record the cost of sales. The entry for sales would debit Accounts Receivable for $492,200 and credit Sales Revenue for $492,200. The cost of the goods sold would be recorded by debiting Cost of Goods Sold for $325,100 and crediting Inventory for the same amount.

The second transaction on December 8 involves granting an allowance to Cullumber Company. In this case, Oriole Company would debit Sales Returns and Allowances for $22,900 and credit Accounts Receivable for the same amount.

The final transaction on December 13 is when Oriole Company receives the balance due from Cullumber Company. In this case, Oriole would debit Cash for the balance amount ($492,200 - $22,900) and credit Accounts Receivable for the same amount.

Answers

Answer:

(-$158,000)

Explanation:

Given that,

Net income = $480,000.

Issued common stock for cash = $77,000

Paid cash dividend = $14,000.

Cash paid to settle a notes payable = $105,000

Cash paid to acquire its treasury stock = $116,000

Net cash flows from financing activities:

= Common stock issuance - Cash dividends paid - Payment of note payable - Purchase of treasury stock

= $77,000 - $14,000 - $105,000 - $116,000

= (-$158,000)

Your friend Ed has a money market mutual fund account, automatic deposit of his paycheck into an interest-bearing checking account at the company credit union, and a CD form the local branch of a bank that advertises "coast to coast" banking. What is the benefit of "mixing and matching" financial institutions and their services?

Answers

Answer and explanation:

"Mixing and Matching" financial institutions are those that take their customers' money and link different investment vehicles with the customer's expectations, diversifying risk compared to having the money in only one asset. The benefit of using financial institutions as middlemen relies on the cost of accessing the securities since they are much lower for individual investors. Besides, customers receive an assessment from professionals on what to invest in but sometimes this implies paying an additional fee.

Paradise, Inc., has identified an investment project with the following cash flows. Year Cash Flow 1 $625 2 875 3 1,150 4 1,250 Required: (a) If the discount rate is 11 percent, what is the future value of these cash flows in year 4? (b) What is the future value at a discount rate of 18 percent? (c) What is the future value at discount rate of 30 percent?

Answers

Answer:

(a) If the discount rate is 11 percent, what is the future value of these cash flows in year 4?

To solve this problem, we must find the FV of each cash flow and add them.

To find the FV of a lump sum, we use:

FV = PV(1 + r)^t

FV@11% = $625(1.11)^3 + $875(1.11)^2+ $1,150(1.11) + $1,250 = $4459

(b) What is the future value at a discount rate of 18 percent?

FV = PV(1 + r)^t

FV@18% = $625(1.18)^3+ $875(1.18)^2+ $1,150(1.18) + $1,250 = $4852

(c) What is the future value at discount rate of 30 percent?

FV = PV(1 + r)^t

FV@30% = $625(1.30)^3+ $875(1.30)^2+ $1,150(1.30) + $1,250 = $5597

b. An economy produces only two goods, hot dogs and hamburgers. Both goods are produced efficiently. If a discovery is made of the remarkable health benefits of hot dogs were to change consumers’ preferences, i. Use the productions possibilities frontier to explain what would happen.

Answers

Answer:

This will result in move of the economy along the production possibilities frontier.

Explanation:

The production possibility frontier shows the various combinations of resources that can be used to produce two goods in an economy.

For example if hot dogs and hamburgers can be produced and if resources are used equally between them we can get 5:5 ratio of hotdogs to hamburgers.

If a discovery is made of the remarkable health benefits of hot dogs and there is change in consumer preferences, more of available resources will be used to produce hotdogs and less will be dedicated to hamburger production. The ratio of hotdogs to hamburgers may now be 8:2.

Below is an illustration of movement along the production possibility frontier.

Hughes Company manufactures harmonicas which it sells for $ 23 each. Variable costs for each unit are $ 10 and total fixed costs are $ 7 comma 900. How many units must be sold to earn income of $ 2 comma 500​?

Answers

Answer:

800 units

Explanation:

The net income earned is the difference between the total sales and the total cost. The total cost is the sum of the fixed and variable cost. The sales and variable cost are dependent on the level of activities or number of units produced and sold.

The difference between the sales and variable cost gives the contribution margin.

In light of the above,

let the number of units to be sold to achieve targeted income be x

Total sales = $23x

Total variable cost = 10x

2,500 = 23x - 10x - 7,900

13x = 7900 + 2500

13x = 10,400

x = 800 units

Answers

Answer:

124.38%

Explanation:

Capacity utilization = [actual output/ potential output] %

= (45,400/365) %

=124.38%

The balance in the supplies account, before adjustment at the end of the year, is $9,000. Journalize the adjusting entry required if the amount of supplies on hand at the end of the year is $1,575. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.

Answers

Explanation:

The adjusting journal entry is as follows:

Supplies expense A/c Dr  $7,425

                   To Supplies A/c  $7,425

(Being supplies account is adjusted)  

The supplies expense is computed by  

= Supplies balance before adjustment - supplies on hand  

= $9,000 - $1,575

= $7,425

For recording this adjusting entry, we debited the supplies expense account and credited the supplies account

Final answer:

A debit of $7425 is made to the Supplies Expense account and a credit of the same amount is made to the Supplies account to adjust for the consumed supplies. This is necessary to correctly reflect the amount of supplies on hand at the end of the year.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is Accounting, specifically about adjusting entries in the ledger. An adjusting journal entry is required when the amount of supplies on hand at the end of the year is different from what is reflected in the account. In this case, the balance in the Supplies account is $9,000, while the actual amount of supplies on hand is $1,575.

To reflect the correct amount, a journal entry must be made to deduct the value of the consumed supplies. This is computed by subtracting the actual remaining supplies from the initial recorded amount (i.e., $9,000 - $1,575 = $7425). Therefore, you need to debit the Supplies Expense account and credit the Supplies account by this difference ($7425).

The common stock is priced at $37 a share and there are 28,000 shares outstanding. What is the weight of the common stock as it relates to the firm's weighted average cost of capital?

Answers

Answer:

Weight of the common stock = 45%

Explanation:

WACC is the average cost of a company long-term sources of finance. Each source is weighted according to the proportion of its  market value to the total market value of the pool of funds.

To calculate the weighted of the common stock , we will follow the steps

below:

Step 1

Calculate the total market value of all the sources of fund

Market value of common stock

Bonds =  $990 × 1,200 = $ 1,188,000

Preferred Stock = $28 × 2500 =$70,000

Common stock =  $37 × 28,000 =$1,036,000

Total market value =  1,188,000+ 70,000 + 1,036,000

$2,294,000.00

Step 2

Calculate the weight of common stock

Weight of the common stock = ($1,036,000/ $2,294,000.00 ) × 100

                                              = 45%

Weight of the common stock = 45%

You can sell the motherboards for $194 each.
What is your profit at the current exchange rate? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

the value of 1 Singapore dollar = 1/1.2871 = US$0.776940409  this is called direct quotation

or

Value of US$1 = 1.2871 this is called direct quotation

In the question we have indirect quotation

First we need to calculate Singapore dollar For purchases = 34000*233.5

                                                                                                  = 7939000

Sale proceeds in US$ =34000*194 = $US 6596000

Using the direct quotation method to convered the USD in to Sigapore $

$1usd = 1.2871

Sale proceeds in Singapore dollar =6596000*1.2871 =            8489711.6

Using the indirect quotation method to convered the USD in to Sigapore $

6596000/0.77694       =8489711.6 indirect Calculation

Gain = Sale - purchase =7939000-8489711.6

Answers

Answer:

Honesty.

We do not deceive or mislead.

We negotiate in good faith.

Explanation:

As a manager, I am responsible to follow ethical values of the contract. Because the contract sometimes cannot be modified. Moreover negotiations over a contract means win win situation for both parties.

Honesty: Since i had the estimate, which i could have shared with the other party but i did not because it would have harmed my profits so, I wasn't honest and violated this clause at first.

We do not deceive or mislead: Once again, I had an information which if shared could have changed the contract but since it was harmful to my business I didn't and I deceived the other party into believing that the contract is done fairly but later on the other party finds out about it they will go to court over this.

We negotiate in good faith: The purpose of this clause is to make sure that all parties involved want something better for everyone. No party is looking for win-lose situation. But the action I as a manager did, also violated this clause, for which the other party can sue me in the court.

Answers

Answer:

B. Invite further correspondence.

C. Close with good wishes.

D. Buffer the opening.

Explanation:

These are all strategies that can be used to soften the bad news of rejection for a candidate that is not going to be hired. When you buffer the opening of your correspondence, you contribute to making the reader feel less negative about the news. Moreover, by inviting further correspondence, you demonstrate that the rejection is nothing personal and should not be taken as such. Finally, by closing with good wishes, you end on a positive note that is reassuring to the candidate.

Answer:

Explanation:

When employers do send out rejections, they tend to be impersonal and non-specific, either through a lack of time or from fear​of causing offence.  Failing to give feedback is one of the most common mistakes employers make.

The rule of thumb is to make feedback as constructive and personalized as possible.  A standard email may be acceptable for candidates rejected prior to the interview process, but more detailed feedback is important for interviewees. So the time they have taken to give an interview is well paid

Saying whatever makes you appear as the "good guy" wont help either as interviewer needs to care about company's brand name.

Buffer the opening with the appreciation and thank you note. When you’re giving constructive criticism to a candidate, whether on the phone or by mail, it’s always a good idea to start off with the positives and give them some compliments before you tackle the areas where they fell down.

Wherever possible, tell them exactly which areas of the interview they could have handled better - most will already have a good idea of where they struggled.  Make sure your reasons are concrete, not subjective like “I didn’t feel your personality would fit with the rest of the team”.  You also need to avoid any comments that could be misinterpreted, like “I didn’t feel you could handle the workload” that could leave you open to potential charges of discrimination.

To make the feedback process feel less one-sided and more of a conversation, why not ask the candidate to supply their own comments on the interview.  This can help head off problems with your recruitment process and gives you the chance to improve your interview technique.

 Invite further correspondence.

To make the feedback process feel less one-sided and more of a conversation, why not ask the candidate to supply their own comments on the interview.  This can help head off problems with your recruitment process and gives you the chance to improve your interview technique.

If you are likely to consider the candidate for future opportunities, letting them know you’ll keep their details on file will help soften the blow of the rejection.

Close with good wishes.

You can wish them luck for future opportunities as well invite them for future job posts. This is how interviewee will know the company is welcoming and rejecting for right reasons.

"Please do apply again in the future should you see a job posting for which you qualify. Again, thank you for applying. We wish you all the best. "

An example of a conflict of interest is influencing the recruitment of an applicant because the representative knows that person.

In case the cost of conflict is high, even higher will be the cost of non-action in removing the conflict since it will be detrimental for the company's interest over the long run.

Answers

Final answer:

To compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs, consider the units started into production and the units in ending work in process.

Explanation:

To compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs, we need to consider the units started into production and the units in ending work in process.

For materials, the equivalent units of production would be the sum of units started into production and the percentage of completion of the units in ending work in process multiplied by the number of units in ending work in process.

For conversion costs, the equivalent units of production would be the same as the equivalent units of production for materials.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $2340.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Ruth is a self-employed surgeon and is required to take a week of continuing medical education every year to keep her license. This year she paid $2,000 in course fees for her continuing medical education in Honolulu. She also paid $1,500 for airfare and a hotel room and $400 for meals. Ruth may deduct 60% of the medical education fees and travel and 50% of the meals. What is the total amount she can deduct on her Schedule C?

The question states that she can deduct 60% of the medical education fees which for $2000 comes up to $1200. She can also deduct 60% of her travel expenses which for $1500 comes up to $900. The 50% deduction for the meals at $400 comes up to $240. In total, the amount she can deduct is $2340.

I hope this answer helps.

Final answer:

Ruth can deduct 60% of her medical education fees and travel expenses and 50% of her meals expenses on her Schedule C, totaling $2,300 in deductibles for continuing medical education.

Explanation:

Ruth, a self-employed surgeon, can indeed deduct certain percentages of her expenses for continuing medical education on her Schedule C. According to the information provided, Ruth can deduct 60% of her medical education fees and her travel expenses, and she can deduct 50% of her meals expenses. Calculating these deductions, we find:

Medical education fees: $2,000 x 60% = $1,200

Travel: $1,500 x 60% = $900

Meals: $400 x 50% = $200

Adding these up, Ruth can claim a total of $2,300 in deductions related to her medical education expenses on her Schedule C.

A stock has a beta of 1.24, the expected return on the market is 11.8 percent, and the risk-free rate is 4.55 percent. What must the expected return on this stock be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Expected return %

Answers

Answer:

The expected return on this stock must be 13.54%

Explanation:

We use the Capital asset pricing model to calculate the expected return on the stock.

ERi  = Rf  +βi  (ERm  − Rf )

Where,

ERi = Expected return on investment

Rf = Risk-free rate = 4.55%

βi = Beta of the investment = 1.24

ERm  = Expected return on the market = 11.8%

ERi  = Rf  +βi  (ERm  − Rf )

ERi = 4.55 + 1.24 ( 11.8% - 4.55% )

ERi = 13.54%

Answers

Answer:

(I)

b. Use the reasons-before-refusal plan.

(II)

a. Keep the refusal respectful, sensitive, and upbeat.

b. Disclose all reasons for the refusal.

d. Provide alternatives that encourage the customer to continue business with you.

Explanation:

In the first case, the best strategy to adopt is that of presenting the "reasons-before-refusal" plan. This means that before conveying a negative message to the client, you explain the reasons of why this message necessarily has to be like that. By reading the reasons first, the customer will be more likely to agree with your assessment of the situation.In the second example, these are all strategies that you can use to ensure that the letter you are writing is kind and appropriate. In this letter, it is important to be respectful, sensitive and upbeat in order for the customer to know that you are taking his claim seriously. Moreover, you should be able to disclose all the reasons for the refusal so that the person is well-informed of the situation. Finally, you should be able to provide alternatives to the customer, as this might allow him to continue having business with you.

The predetermined overhead rate is $50 per machine-hour, under-applied overhead is $5,000, and the actual amount of machine-hours is 2,000. What is the actual amount of total manufacturing overhead incurred during the period?

Answers

Solution:

Actual machine hours = 2,000 machine hours

Per-determined overhead rate = $50 per machine hour

Applied manufacturing overhead = Actual machine hour multiply with Predetermined overhead rate

= $50 multiply with 2,000 machine hours = $100,000

Underapplied overhead = $5,000

Thus, in order to calculate manufacturing overhead cost that has been incurred, the following costs will be added

Actual manufacturing overhead incurred = Applied manufacturing overhead + Underapplied overhead = $100,000 + $5,000 = $105,000

Hence, Answer is A.$105,000

5. Describe a firm you think has been highly innovative. Which of the four types of innovation—radical, incremental, disruptive, or architectural—did it use? Did the firm use different types over time?

Answers

Answer:

Apple is the most innovative brand on the face of this earth. It has created iPhone, Mac-book, iPod, iTunes etc. Steve Jobs made it one of the most innovative brand in the world, when he was alive Apple was using disruptive innovation, they were creating totally new and innovative products which the world had never seen before. The way they changed the cell phone industry was simply phenomenal. They came up with iPhone when there was no concept of doing all of your computing works on the phone. But after Steve Jobs, company has almost lost its innovative charm, they could not come up with a disruptive innovation, they have just kept on changing the size, price and features of their iPhone which means they are involved in incremental innovation since after the death of Steve Jobs.

Final answer:

Apple Inc has demonstrated radical innovation with the creation of the first iPhone, and disruptive innovation with the introduction of the Apple Store.

Over time, Apple also used incremental and architectural innovations to maintain a balance of exploring and exploiting ideas.

Explanation:

One firm that I believe demonstrates high levels of innovation is Apple Inc. Over the years, Apple has exemplified multiple types of innovation, but notably, they have made significant strides through radical and disruptive innovation.

Radical innovation was evident in the creation of the first iPhone in 2007. This completely transformed the notion of cell phones and made a significant leap in technological progress.

The iPhone integrated an internet communicator, a mobile phone, and a music player into one device, something unprecedented at the time.

Disruptive innovation was observed when Apple introduced the Apple Store.

This step disrupted the traditional software distribution channels and enabled developers to directly distribute their applications to users.

Consumers benefited from a variety of high-quality applications, altering market dynamics.

Over time, Apple has also used incremental and architectural innovations, ensuring a balance between exploring new ideas and exploiting existing ones.

One day, Barry the Barber, Inc., collects $450 for haircuts. Over this day, his equipment depreciates in value by $30. Of the remaining $420, Barry sends $40 to the government in sales taxes, takes home $270 in wages, and retains $110 in his business to add new equipment in the future. From the $270 that Barry takes home, he pays $80 in income taxes.Based on this information, complete the following table by computing Barry's contribution to the measures of income listed. "Barry's Contribution (Dollars)", "Measure of Income "Gross Domestic Product_____, Net National Product______, National Income______, Personal Income__________, Disposable Personal Income_________.

Answers

Explanation:

Data given in the question

Collection made for haircuts = $450

Equipment Depreciates value = $30

Sales taxes = $40

Wages = $270

New equipment = $110

Home collection = $270

Income taxes = $80

So by considering the above information, the calculation is as follows

Gross domestic product is $450

Net national product is

= Gross domestic product - depreciation

= $450 - $30

= $420

National income is the same as net national product so it is also $420

Personal income is

= National income - new equipment - sales taxes

= $420 - $110 - $40

= $270

And, the disposal personal income is

= Personal income - income tax

= $270 - $80

= $190

Final answer:

Barry the Barber's activities result in $450 for GDP, $420 for NNP, $380 for NI, $350 for PI, and $270 for DPI. These figures are based on his daily earnings, equipment depreciation, taxes, and personal income.

Explanation:

To complete the requested table, we need to understand various economic concepts that Barry the Barber's activities affect: Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Net National Product (NNP), National Income (NI), Personal Income (PI), and Disposable Personal Income (DPI).

Here are the calculations based on the provided information:

Gross Domestic Product (GDP): This includes total income from services provided which is $450.

Net National Product (NNP): This is calculated by subtracting the depreciation of equipment from GDP, which results in $450 - $30 = $420.

National Income (NI): This includes what's left of NNP after paying sales taxes: $420 - $40 = $380.

Personal Income (PI): Barry takes home $270, but we also add back in the income taxes he pays since PI includes all income before taxes, so PI is $270 + $80 = $350.

Disposable Personal Income (DPI): From Barry's PI, we subtract the income taxes he pays, so DPI is $350 - $80 = $270.

What is an example of a situation in which the cost of capacity is substantially more than the cost of waiting? What would the waiting line look like in that situation?

Answers

Answer:

Cost of Capacity, Cost of Waiting and Waiting Lines which are concepts indicated in the question speaks to Queuing Theory under Operations Management.

The goal of studying this theory simply relates to Optimizing Efficiency.

Let's define the concepts highlighted in the question.

Capacity cost is defined as the total amount of expenses incurred by an organization to provide for or increase its ability to conduct business operations. It can also be referred to as the cost of service.

Cost of Waiting on the hand within the context indicated above is how much it costs a business to keep customers waiting.

The more customers leave without making a purchase or do not return because of frustrating wait times, the higher the waiting cost.

Waiting Line -  This is simply a line of people waiting to be attended to, or access a product or service. It could also refer to Assembly Line. Or simply, a queue.

Explanation:

Cost of Waiting plus Cost of Service equals Total Cost.

An optimized situation is where the total cost is at it's lowest. Reducing capacity may reduce costs of service, but cause an upward spike loss of sales due to lost customers.

Excessive capacity, on the other hand, will reduce the loss of sales due to the loss of customers but lead to an increase in operating costs.

To answer the questions, an example of a situation in which the cost of capacity is substantially more than the cost of waiting is given below:

a) If One ATM can serve 3 customer in 2 Minutes, and ATM users arrive the ATM Gallery at the rate of 3 customers every 4 minutes, then haveing 5 ATM Machines installed at such a location would translate to higher cost of capacity in relation to cost of waiting (Assuming that the cost of purchasing the machines and profit accruable from the ATM use charges are not factors under consideration)

b) the waiting line in such a condition would be substantially smaller than an optimised gallery or close to zero

Explanation:

Lindor and Sons purchased an available-for-sale investment for $800,000. The fair value of that investment is $750,000 at the end of the current fiscal year. The company’s total net income for the year is approximately $2,500,000.
Based on this information, which of the following statements is accurate?

a. The company will recognize an unrealized holding loss.
b. The company will need to report their investment at an amortized cost.
c. The company will be unable to include the unrealized gain or loss in their comprehensive income.
d. The company will not recognize their dividends as revenue.

Answers

Answer:

a. The company will recognize an unrealized holding loss.

Explanation:

An unrealised loss is defined as a decline in an asset theta is held by a business. The asset can be held until it's value appreciates to cancel out the unrealised loss. If such an asset is sold, it will now be a realised loss.

The unrealized loss of (800,000-750,000= $50,000) will be recorded in the accumulated other comprehensive income account under the equity section of the balance sheet.

Unrealised loss is also called paper loss because the loss is only recorded on paper and is not yet realised.

Final answer:

The company will recognize an unrealized holding loss because the value of the investment fell below its purchase price. This unrealized loss is accounted for in the income statement and affects the net income of the company.

Explanation:

Based on the information given, Lindor and Sons purchased an available-for-sale investment for $800,000 but by the end of the fiscal year the investment's fair value dropped to $750,000. As a result, the accurate statement would be 'a. The company will recognize an unrealized holding loss'.

An unrealized holding loss occurs when a company has an investment that decreases in value but is not yet sold. In this case, all unrealized losses need to be recognized in the income statement, which will indirectly reduce the company's net income.

It's important to note that this is different from an amortized cost, which is used for loans and held-to-maturity investments, not for available-for-sale investments. Also, unrealized gain or loss can be included in comprehensive income according to the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated Direct labor hours= 6,250

Estimated Machine hours= 4,375

We weren't provided with the estimated manufacturing overhead for the period. But, with an example, I can guide the answer.

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

For example:

Estimated overhead for the period= $275,000

For Direct labor hours:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 275,000/6,250= $44 per direct labor hours

For Machine-hours:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 275,000/4,375= $62.86 per machine hour
