Final answer:
Gerald's paid out $60,000 in dividends during the year. This was calculated by determining the expected Stockholders' Equity after accounting for Net Income and comparing it to the actual Stockholders' Equity, accounting for the increases in total assets and liabilities.
Explanation:
To determine the amount of the dividend paid, we need to assess the change in Stockholder's Equity using the accounting equation:
Stockholder's Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities
We know Gerald's starting Stockholders' Equity is $160,000. Over the year, Total Assets increased by $240,000 and Total Liabilities increased by $120,000, thus:
New Total Assets = Old Total Assets + Increase = Starting Stockholders' Equity + Increase in Total Assets = $160,000 + $240,000 = $400,000.
New Total Liabilities = Old Total Liabilities + Increase = Increase in Total Liabilities = $120,000 (since we don't have the starting total liabilities).
New Stockholders' Equity = New Total Assets - New Total Liabilities = $400,000 - $120,000 = $280,000.
Net Income which contributes to Stockholder's Equity = $180,000. Thus, before considering dividends, the expected Stockholders' Equity should be the Starting Stockholders' Equity + Net Income = $160,000 + $180,000 = $340,000.
The actual Stockholders Equity though is $280,000. This means that the difference, which is paid out as dividends, is Stockholders' Equity expected - Actual Stockholders' Equity = $340,000 - $280,000 = $60,000.
Therefore, Gerald's paid out $60,000 in dividends during the year.

Assume a zero-coupon bond that sells for $270 and will mature in 25 years at $1,850. Use Appendix B for an approximate answer but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods. What is the effective yield to maturity? (Assume annual compounding. Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
8.00%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Selling price of the bond i.e current value = $270
Future value = $1,850
Maturity time, t = 25 years
Now,
Effective yield to maturity, r = [tex](\frac{\text{Future value}}{\text{Current value}})^{\frac{1}{t}}-1[/tex]
on substituting the respective values, we get
Effective yield to maturity, r = [tex](\frac{\$1,850}{\$270})^{\frac{1}{25}}-1[/tex]
or
Effective yield to maturity, r = 1.0800 - 1
or
Effective yield to maturity = 0.0800
or
= 0.0800 × 100% = 8.00%
Everly Corporation acquires a coal mine at a cost of $400,000. Intangible development costs total $100,000. After extraction has occurred, Everly must restore the property (estimated fair value of the obligation is $80,000), after which it can be sold for $160,000. Everly estimates that 4,000 tons of coal can be extracted.
If 700 tons are extracted the first year, prepare the journal entry to record depletion. (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.)
Answer:
Explanation:
The journal entry is shown below:
Inventory A/c Dr $73,500
To Accumulated depletion A/c $73,500
(Being the depletion is recorded)
The computation is shown below
First we have to compute the depletion per ton which is shown below:
= (Acquired cost of coal mine + Intangible development costs + fair value of the obligation - Sale value) ÷ (Number of estimated tons of coal extracted)
= ($400,000 + $100,000 + $80,000 - $160,000) ÷ (4,000 tons)
= $105
Now if 700 are extracted in first year, so the depletion would be
= 700 × $105
= $73,500

You are considering buying a company using leveraged buyout. The company is projected to have sales of 500 million each year in the three years after buyout. The cost of sales and other administrative expenses are 60% of the sale. Depreciation and amortization are 5% of the sale. Tax rate is 40%. Suppose that the change in net working capital and capital expenditure each year is zero. If you borrow 1.5 billion at interest rate of 8% per year, and you use all the cash flow to repay debt.
What is the net income in the first year after the buyout?
Answer:
Net income= $33 million
Explanation:
A leveraged buyout is a buyout of an entity by it's own managers/board members mostly through debt financing. Now the expected sales after the buyout is 500 million, we are asked to calculate net income only in the first year. First of all lets see what net income is. Net income is the remaining amount of income after having paid all the expenses which is mostly the residual income available for either distribution to shareholders or transfer to retained earnings.
The formula for net income is as follows:
Net income/profit= Sales revenue - COGS - Administrative expenses- depreciation and amortization - Interest expense - Tax
Let first calculate COGS & other administrative expense, depreciation and interest expenses first.
COGS & ADMIN: 500*0.6=300 m
Depreciation: 500*0.05 =25m
Interest expense for the year: 1500 * 0.08= 120m
Now lets substitute values in the formula mentioned above:
Income before taxes: 500m - 300m - 25m - 120m
Income before taxes: 55m
Income after taxes; 55m - 22m (taxes= 55*40%)
Net income= $33 million
Which of the following is NOT a valid condition for denying a patent application?Select one:
a.The "invention" sought to be patented is actually a living creature.
b. The invention was known or used by others in this country, or patented or described in a printed publication in this or a foreign country.
c. The inventor has abandoned the invention.
d. He did not himself invent the subject matter sought to be patented
The answer is option a, which states that an invention sought to be patented is a living creature. Since Diamond v. Chakrabarty, genetically modified organisms can be patented, making option a incorrect as a reason for denial.
The correct answer to the student's question about a valid condition for denying a patent application is option a: The "invention" sought to be patented is actually a living creature. After the 1980 Diamond v. Chakrabarty case, it became possible to patent genetically modified organisms, meaning that living creatures, if altered by humans, could be subject to a patent. This decision allowed for the patenting of genetically modified bacteria, plants, and even specific genes, as long as they met the criteria of being distinct, new, and not naturally occurring.
Options b, c, and d represent legally recognized reasons for denying a patent. In option b, if an invention was previously known or documented, it is not considered novel and therefore not patentable. Option c, abandonment, refers to a situation where the inventor stops pursuing the patent without a good reason, and in option d, one must be the true inventor to apply for a patent. However, none of these options represents a barrier to entry that is both a valid reason for denying a patent and directly government-enforced.
On June 30, 2018, the High Five Surfboard Company had outstanding accounts receivable of $600,000. On July 1, 2018, the company borrowed $450,000 from the Equitable Finance Corporation and signed a promissory note.
Interest at 10% is payable monthly. The company assigned specific receivables totaling $600,000 as collateral for the loan. Equitable Finance charges a finance fee equal to 1.8% of the accounts receivable assigned.Required:
Prepare the journal entry to record the borrowing on the books of High Five Surfboard. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
The Journal entry is as follows:
On July 1,
Cash A/c Dr. $439,200
Finance charge Expense A/c Dr. $10,800
To Financing arrangement A/c $450,000
(To record the amount of borrowings)
Workings:
Finance charge expense = ($600,000 × 1.8%)
= $10,800
So, cash account = $450,000 - $10,800
= $439,200
The correct journal entry to record the borrowing on the books of High Five Surfboard Company is as follows:
Cash 600,000 Finance Fee Expense (1.8% of $600,000) 10,800 Interest Expense (10% of $450,000 for one month) 3,750 Discount on Notes Payable 10,800 Notes Payable 450,000
To record the borrowing of $450,000 with interest at 10% and a finance fee of 1.8% on assigned accounts receivable totaling $600,000.
1. High Five Surfboard Company borrowed $450,000 from Equitable Finance Corporation, which is recorded as an increase in Cash and a corresponding increase in Notes Payable.
2. The company is required to pay interest at 10% on the loan. Since the interest is payable monthly, we calculate the interest for one month as 10% of $450,000, which is $45,000 annually. For one month, the interest expense is $45,000/12 = $3,750. This is recorded as an expense (Interest Expense) and a decrease in Cash.
3. Equitable Finance charges a finance fee equal to 1.8% of the accounts receivable assigned as collateral for the loan. The accounts receivable assigned total $600,000, so the finance fee is 1.8% of $600,000, which is $10,800. This finance fee is recorded as an expense (Finance Fee Expense) and a decrease in Cash.
4. However, the finance fee is offset by a Discount on Notes Payable, which represents the amount by which the face value of the note is reduced due to the finance fee. This means that although the finance fee is an expense, it does not result in an outflow of cash because it is subtracted from the amount borrowed. Therefore, the Discount on Notes Payable is credited for $10,800, which effectively reduces the Notes Payable to the amount actually received in cash ($450,000 - $10,800 = $439,200).
5. The net effect of the transaction is that High Five Surfboard Company receives $600,000 in cash ($450,000 from the loan and $150,000 from the assignment of accounts receivable), pays $10,800 in finance fees (which does not affect cash because it is offset by the discount on the note), and accrues $3,750 in interest expense for the first month.
6. The journal entry reflects the increase in Cash by $600,000, the recognition of Finance Fee Expense and Interest Expense, and the increase in Notes Payable by $450,000, net of the Discount on Notes Payable of $10,800.
Sandusky Inc. has the following costs when producing 100,000 units: Variable costs $600,000 Fixed costs 900,000 An outside supplier is interested in producing the item for Sandusky. If the item is produced outside, Sandusky could use the released production facilities to make another item that would generate $150,000 of net income. At what unit price would Sandusky accept the outside supplier's offer if Sandusky wanted to increase net income by $120,000?
Answer:
$6.30
Explanation:
For computing the unit price, first we have to determine the difference in cost which is shown below:
= $150,000 - $120,000
= $30,000
Now the break even price would be
= Variable cost + cost difference
= $600,000 + $30,000
= $630,000
So, the unit price would be
= Break even price ÷ number of unit produced
= $630,000 ÷ 100,000 units
= $6.30
You would like to invest $20,000 and have a portfolio expected return of 14 percent. You are considering two securities, M and N. M has an expected return of 20 percent and N has an expected return of 10 percent. How much should you invest in stock M if you invest the balance in stock N to achieve the 14 percent portfolio return?
Answer:
The amount invested in M = $8,000
The amount invested in N = $12,000
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Total amount invested = $20,000
Expected return on portfolio = 14%
Expected return on M = 20% = 0.20
Expected return on N = 10% = 0.10
Now,
Let the amount invested in M be 'x'
thus,
Amount invested in N will be = $20,000 - x
Thus,
According to the question
0.20(x) + 0.10($20,000 - x) = 0.14($20,000)
or
0.20x + $2,000 - 0.10x = $2,800
or
0.10x = $800
or
x = $8,000
Therefore,
Amount invested in N will be = $20,000 - $8,000
= $12,000
Hence,
The amount invested in M = $8,000
The amount invested in N = $12,000
Sheffield Corp. maintains its accounting records using IFRS. The company recently signed a lease for a new office building, for a lease period of 9 years.

What amount will the company receive at the time the lease expires?
Answer:$75,680
Explanation:8% of 44000=3,520. For 9years= 3520×9=31680. Total money at the end= principal+interest= 44000+31680=75680
Maxim manufactures a hamster food product called Green Health. Maxim currently has 19,000 bags of Green Health on hand. The variable production costs per bag are $3.20 and total fixed costs are $24,000. The hamster food can be sold as it is for $11.00 per bag or be processed further into Premium Green and Green Deluxe at an additional cost. The additional processing will yield 19,000 bags of Premium Green and 4400 bags of Green Deluxe, which can be sold for $10 and $8 per bag, respectively. Assuming Maxim further processes Green Health further into Premium Green and Green Deluxe, revenue from the two products would be:
Answer:
$225,200
Explanation:
Revenue from the two products would be:
= Green health + Hamster food
= (Unit sales × selling price per unit) + (Unit sales × selling price per unit)
= (19,000 × $10) + (4,400 × $8)
= $190,000 + $35,200
= $225,200
Therefore, Assuming Maxim further processes Green Health further into Premium Green and Green Deluxe, revenue from the two products would be $225,200.
Assume that the marginal social benefit of the last unit of vaccination provided is greater than the marginal social cost. Which of the following can be used to achieve efficiency in the market for vaccination?Select the correct answer below:a. A per-unit subsidy for vaccinationsb. A lump-sum tax for vaccinationsc. A price ceiling for vaccinationsd. A per-unit tax on vaccinations
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": A per-unit subsidy for vaccinations.
Explanation:
A unit subsidy is a certain amount per unit produced given to the manufacturer. This type of subsidy will downturn the supply curve because of the amount of the subsidy. Typically, this is done to decrease the price level and increase the output quantity.
In that case, by creating more output for the vaccinations the marginal cost will be higher which reaches the marginal benefit at a certain point provoking market efficiency for the vaccinations.
Final answer:
A per-unit subsidy for vaccinations is the policy that can be used to achieve efficiency in the vaccination market when MSB exceeds MSC, as it bridges the gap between the market equilibrium and the socially desirable level of output.
Explanation:
To achieve efficiency in the market for vaccination when the marginal social benefit (MSB) of the last unit of vaccination provided is greater than the marginal social cost (MSC), the government can provide a per-unit subsidy for vaccinations.
This subsidy acts like a voucher that consumers can use as 'income' to purchase vaccinations. With this financial assistance, the supply and demand in the market adjusts so that the equilibrium quantity of vaccinations, Qsocial, corresponds to the point where MSB equals MSC. At this point, the market produces the socially optimal quantity of vaccinations.
Thus, the answer to the question is: a. A per-unit subsidy for vaccinations. Suppliers would receive payment of Psocial per vaccination, and consumers would use the voucher to pay a lower price of Psubsidy. The end result is an increase in vaccinations to a level that achieves social efficiency by ensuring that the marginal social benefit of vaccinations equals the marginal social cost.
Record the following transactions for Sparky’s Pet Shop. Date Transaction August 1 Purchased $6,000 of merchandise on account, terms 2/10, n/30. 3 Returned $1,500 of merchandise purchased on August 1 due to defects. 7 Recorded cash sales for the first week of August, $9,750; cost of the merchandise was $4,000. 10 Made sale on account to a local breeder for $500, terms 1/10 net 30; cost of the merchandise was $200. 11 Paid for the merchandise purchased on August 1, less return. 20 Received payment from sale of August 10.
The transactions listed are common retail transactions that include purchases, sales (cash and credit), merchandise returns, and receipts of payment. Each transaction has specific impacts on Sparky's Pet Shop's financial position in terms of cash, merchandise inventory, accounts payable, and accounts receivable.
Explanation:The first transaction was a purchase on account from a supplier for $6,000 of merchandise with terms 2/10, n/30. This means Sparky's Pet Shop can take a 2% discount if they pay within 10 days but the full amount is due within 30 days.
On August 3, Sparky's Pet Shop returned $1,500 of defective merchandise. So, the new amount due to the supplier is $4,500 ($6,000-$1,500).
On August 7, the store recorded cash sales of $9,750, this increased the cash balance and decreased the inventory by the merchandise cost of $4,000.
On August 10, they sold items on account to a local breeder for $500 on credit, terms 1/10 n/30 with a cost of $200.
On August 11, payment was made for the merchandise purchased on August 1, the amount that was paid is $4,500 which is the total cost of purchase less the returns.
Finally, on August 20, they received payment from the sale made on August 10, this decreased accounts receivable by $500 and increased cash by $500.

3. A property that produces a first year NOI of $80,000 is purchased for $750,000. The NOI is expected to increase by 15% in the sixth year when some of the leases turnover. The resale price in year 10 is expected to be $830,000. What is the net present value of the property based on the 10-year holding period and a discount rate of 9.5%? (D)
Answer:
Net Present Value (NPV) = $ 115,998
Explanation:
Calculation of the Net Present Value
Net Present Value = Cash Inflows - Cash Outflows
NOI from 6th year = 80,000*115% = 92,000
NPV = 80000 (PVAF, 5 year) + 92,000 (PVAF, (105), 9.5%) + 830,000/(1.095)10 - 750,000
NPV = (80,000 x 3.839) + (92,000 x 2.439) + (830,000 x 0.403) - 750,000
= 307,120 + 224,388 + 334,490 - 750,000
The Net Present Value will be $ 115998
The net present value of the property is approximately $95,235.12.
Explanation:To calculate the net present value (NPV) of the property, we need to discount the cash flows from the property at the given discount rate. The formula to calculate NPV is:
NPV = CF0 + Σ(CFt / (1+r)t) - C0
In this case, CF0 is the initial purchase price (-$750,000), CFt is the expected cash flow in year t, r is the discount rate (0.095), and C0 is the expected resale price in year 10 (+$830,000). We need to calculate the present value of each year's cash flow and then sum them up to find the NPV.
The cash flows for each year can be calculated as follows:
Year 1: $80,000 (no discounting needed)Year 2-5: $80,000 × (1+0.15)t-1Year 6-9: $80,000 × (1+0.15)t-1 × (1+0.155)Year 10: $830,000 × (1+0.15)10Substituting these values into the formula and summing up the discounted cash flows, the net present value of the property is approximately $95,235.12.

total return = $66 - $60 + $1.5
total return = $7.5
so now rate of return will be here as
rate of return = [tex]\frac{total\ return}{stock}[/tex]
rate of return = [tex]\frac{7.5}{60}[/tex] × 100
rate of return = 12.50%

The Great Giant Corp. has a management contract with its newly hired president. The contract requires a lump sum payment of $24,800,000 be paid to the president upon the completion of her first 9 years of service. The company wants to set aside an equal amount of funds each year to cover this anticipated cash outflow. The company can earn 8 percent on these funds. How much must the company set aside each year for this purpose?
Answer:
The company must set aside $1,985,976.79 each year for this purpose
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Required payment = $24,800,000
Time = 9 years
Interest rate = 8% = 0.08
Now,
Required payment = A × [( ( 1+ r )ⁿ - 1) ÷ r ]
Here,
A is the amount required to be set aside each year
Therefore,
$24,800,000 = A × [( ( 1+ 0.08 )⁹ - 1) ÷ 0.08 ]
or
$24,800,000 = A × 12.48755
or
A = $1,985,976.79
Hence,
The company must set aside $1,985,976.79 each year for this purpose
A management that wanted to increase the financial leverage of its firm would: raise additional capital by selling fixed interest rate long-term bonds. raise additional capital by selling common stock. use excess cash to purchase preferred stock for the treasury. try to increase its ROI by increasing asset turnover.
Answer: Raise additional capital by selling fixed Interest rate long term bonds
Explanation:
A firm can finance it's operations through equity or debts, the art of a firm financing it's operations through debts like bonds etc it's refered to as financial leverage.
A firm cannot increase it's financial leverage by selling common stock, neither through buying stock from his cash and financial leverage does relate with asset turnover.
The argument that import restrictions save jobs and promote prosperity fails to recognize that:
a. there are no secondary effects of import restrictions.
b. import restrictions will lower prices in the protected industries.
c. import restrictions cannot create jobs in any industries.
d. U.S. imports provide people in other countries with the purchasing power required for the purchase of U.S. exports.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": import restrictions will lower prices in the protected industries.
Explanation:
Import restrictions apply to specific tariff and non-tariff barriers levied by an importing nation to regulate the number of goods coming from other countries. This situation boosts domestic consumption in certain industries but the demand for those goods increases in quantity which causes the price of those products to drop.
Maldovar Company is considering purchasing a new machine to replace a machine purchased one year ago that is not achieving the expected results. The following information is available:
Expected maintenance costs of new machine $ 12,000 per year
Purchase price of existing machine $150,000
Expected cost savings of new machine $ 20,000 per year
Expected maintenance costs of existing machine $ 8,000 per year
Resale value of existing machine $ 35,000
Which of these items is IRRELEVANT?
a. Expected maintenance costs of new machine
b. Expected maintenance costs of existing machine
c. Purchase cost of existing machine
d. Expected resale value of existing machine
Answer:
c. Purchase cost of existing machine
Explanation:
Relevant costs are the incremental costs that can be avoided by avoiding the functional activity with which the costs are associated.
Maintenance costs are relevant as they are directly linked to the use of machinery and as such are incremental with the use. The same is the case with the maintenance costs of the existing machine as they are avoidable if the new machine is purchased.
Expected cost savings would be incremental with the improved new machine. These cost savings thus are relevant.
Resale value of existing machine are also relevant as these would contribute towards the purchase of new machine.
The purchase price of existing machine is irrelevant as the machine cost has already been paid and regardless of purchasing the new machine or not, this cost is not a part of any calculations.
Hope that helps.
Final answer:
The purchase cost of the existing machine is a sunk cost and therefore irrelevant to the decision of whether to purchase a new machine for Maldovar Company. The relevant costs to consider are those that impact future cash flows, such as maintenance costs and resale value.
Explanation:
In evaluating whether to replace an existing machine, certain financial factors must be considered to determine the relevant costs and benefits. When analyzing the information provided for the Maldovar Company's decision to purchase a new machine, it's important to distinguish between relevant and irrelevant costs. The relevant costs are the expected maintenance costs of both machines, the expected cost savings of the new machine, and the resale value of the existing machine, as these will impact the future cash flows of the company.
The purchase cost of the existing machine is considered a sunk cost, meaning it has already been incurred and cannot be recovered. The sunk cost is therefore irrelevant to the decision-making process because it will not affect the future costs or revenues associated with the new machine. This makes option c. Purchase cost of existing machine the correct answer as it has no bearing on the decision about whether to purchase the new machine.
Gilberto Company currently manufactures 50,000 units per year of one of its crucial parts. Variable costs are $2.50 per unit, fixed costs related to making this part are $50,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $50,000 per year. Allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys the part. Gilberto is considering buying the part from a supplier for a quoted price of $3.70 per unit guaranteed for a three-year period.Required:1. Calculate the total incremental cost of making 50,000 units.2. Calculate the total incremental cost of buying 50,000 units.
Answer:
a. Incremental cost of making the part $
Variable cost (50,000 units x $2.50) = 125,000
Attributable fixed cost = 50,000
Incremental cost 175,000
b. Incremental cost of buying the part from outside
= 50,000 units x $3.70
= $185,000
Explanation: The incremental cost of making the part is the total relevant cost of production, which involves variable cost and attributable fixed cost.
The incremental cost of buying the component refers to cost of buying the part from outside.
Southern Alliance Company needs to raise $45 million to start a new project and will raise the money by selling new bonds. The company will generate no internal equity for the foreseeable future.

The Lotus Point Condo Project will contain both homes and apartments. The site can accommodateup to 10,000 dwelling units. The project must contain a recreation project: either a swimming-tenniscomplex or a sailboat marina, but not both. If a marina is built, then the number of homes in theproject must be at least triple the number of apartments in the project. A marina will cost $1.2 million,and a swimming-tennis complex will cost $2.8 million. The developers believe that each apartment willyield revenues with a net present value of $48,000, and each home will yield revenues with a net presentvalue of $46,000. Each home (or apartment) costs $40,000 to build. Formulate an integer program tohelp Lotus Point maximize profits.
The Lotus Point Condo Project can be interpreted as an integer programming problem for maximizing profits. The problem can be modeled with variables representing homes, apartments, and the decision to build either a marina or a swimming-tennis complex. The resulting linear equation and constraints represent the profit and the project requirements respectively.
Explanation:The problem can be understood as a linear integer programming problem. In this type of problem, we are aiming to maximize or minimize a linear function, subject to certain linear constraints. Our function in this case is the profit, which we aim to maximize.
The variables for this integer program could be defined as follows:
H: Number of homes to be built in the project A: Number of apartments to be built in the project M: Binary decision variable for building marina (1 if yes, 0 if no) S: Binary decision variable for building swimming-tennis complex (1 if yes, 0 if no)
The objective function, which represents the profit, can be represented as follows:
Maximize Z = 46,000H + 48,000A - 40,000(H + A) - 1,200,000M - 2,800,000S
The constraints can be defined as follows:
H + A <= 10,000: The total number of dwelling units cannot exceed 10,000. H >= 3A*M: If a marina is built, the number of homes must be at least triple the number of apartments. M + S = 1: Either a marina or a swimming-tennis complex must be built, but not both.Learn more about Integer Programming here:
