Answer:
(A). Commerce and industry would decline as the nation expanded its agricultural base.
Explanation:
"Manifest destiny" (coined by John Sullivan in 1845) is an idea that God has destined the United States to expand its territories and dominate the whole North American continent from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Expansion of territory led to availability of more lands for farming and as such, agricultural expansion and increase in food supply. It also brought about an increase in commerce and industry.
Final answer:
The belief that commerce and industry would decline with national expansion is not a part of Manifest Destiny; rather, Manifest Destiny encompassed the expansion of American democratic institutions and commerce from coast to coast, the Americanization of new territories, and the divine right to expand.
Explanation:
The idea of Manifest Destiny included several core beliefs but did not suggest that commerce and industry would decline as the nation expanded its agricultural base. This notion contradicts the widely-held beliefs of the time that American expansion was about spreading and enhancing commerce and industry, not diminishing it. According to the beliefs intrinsic to Manifest Destiny, the nation's domain was to extend "from sea to shining sea", expanding democratic institutions and American values across the continent. It was believed that God had conferred upon America the right and destiny to expand its territory and influence, Americanizing the diverse populations encountered. Moreover, this expansion was seen as a way to spread freedom, with the idea that the settled agricultural use of the land was superior to nomadic hunting.
According to the modern view of the Phillips curve, expansionary macroeconomic policy that leads to inflation will reduce unemployment
a. only if people underestimate the inflationary side effects of the policy.
b. only if people overestimate the inflationary side effects of the policy.
c. if people accurately anticipate the inflationary side effects of the policy.
d. only if monetary policy provides the macroeconomic stimulus.
Answer:
a. only if people underestimate the inflationary side effects of the policy.
Explanation:
The modern Phillips curve suggests that as inflation increases, unemployment reduces and vice versa dependent on two factors; the level of inflation and the excess of growth rate of wages over the expected inflation. The larger the excess, the greater the effect of the expansionary monetary policy. Thus, if it is underestimated, then the unemployment will greatly reduce.
You are the manager of BlackSpot Computers, which competes directly with Condensed Computers to sell high-powered computers to businesses. From the two businesses’ perspectives, the two products are indistinguishable. The large investment required to build production facilities prohibits other firms from entering this market, and existing output firms operate under the assumption that the rival will hold constant. The inverse market demand for computes is P=5,900 – Q, and both firms produce at a marginal cost of $800 per computer. Currently, BlackSpot earns revenues of $4.25 million and profits (net of investment, R&D, and other fixed costs) of $890,000. The engineering department at BlackSpot has been steadily working on developing an assembly method that would dramatically reduce the marginal cost of producing these high powered computers and has fond a process that allows it to manufacture each computer at a marginal cost of $500. How will this technological advance impact your production and pricing plans? How will it impact Blackspot’s bottom line?
Answer and Explanation:
In order to know how this affects the production we will first find out the quantities produce before and after the technological advance.
Profit maximizing, MR = MC (Marginal revenue = Marginal Cost)
TR = P x Q
TR= (5900 - Q) x Q = 5900Q - Q^2
MR = 5900 - 2Q (Taking derivative)
Now, MR = MC
5900 - 2Q = 800
Q = 2550
After Technological advancement,
MR = MC
5900 - 2Q = 500
Q = 2700
After technological advancement, Backspot Computers are able to produce more quantities. An increase of 150 units. The technological advancement has helped them.
Your client has been given a trust fund valued at $1.07 million. He cannot access the money until he turns 65 years old, which is in 30 years. At that time, he can withdrawal $28,500 per month. If the trust fund is invested at a 5.0 percent rate, how many months will it last your client once he starts to withdraw the money?
Answer:
285 Months
Explanation:
n = 30 years × 12 = 360
percent rate = 5.0 % divided by 12 = 0.417.
Now recalling the statement of time value for money,
We have future value = present value × ( 1 + rate) ∧ n
future value = 1, 070,000 × ( 1 + 0.417 ) ∧ 360
future value = 3.33065667 E 60
At age 65, the value 3.33065667 E 60 will be the present monthly withdrawal at $28,500.
present value of ordinary annuity, = annuity ( 1 - (1 + r) ∧ -n ÷ r
= 3.33065667 E 60 = 28500 (1 - ( 1 + 0.417) ∧ - n ÷ 0.417
= 3.33065667 E 60 ÷ 28500 = (1 - ( 1 + 0.417) ∧ - n ÷ 0.417
1.168651462 E 56 = (1 - ( 1 + 0.417) ∧ - n ÷ 0.417
we now introduce logs to determine the value of n
Solving further, we discovered that n= 285.
Therefore, the number of months it will last one he start to withdraw the money is 285 month
Final answer:
To find out how many months a trust fund will last with monthly withdrawals, calculate the future value of the trust fund and divide it by the withdrawal amount. It requires understanding annuity distributions and applying formulas for both future value and annuity present value in financial mathematics.
Explanation:
The student's question pertains to determining the duration of monthly withdrawals from a trust fund invested at a 5.0 percent rate until the fund is depleted. To solve this question, we must employ the concept of annuity distributions in financial mathematics. The trust fund grows for 30 years and then the client starts withdrawing money monthly. This situation calls for a calculation where both future value and present value of annuities must be considered.
First, we calculate the future value of the trust fund after 30 years. After that, we use the present value of an annuity formula to determine how many months the withdrawals of $28,500 will last. However, a crucial detail that is missing from the question is whether the trust fund continues to earn interest at the same rate after the client begins to withdraw money. Assuming it does not, the calculation would be more straightforward - simply dividing the total future value of the trust fund by the monthly withdrawal amount.
Assuming the trust fund does not earn interest after withdrawals begin, the calculation is:
Future Value of the trust fund: FV = P \\times (1 + r)^n
Future Value of $1.07 million invested for 30 years at 5% annual interest rate: FV = 1,070,000 \\times (1 + 0.05)^30
Calculate the total amount available for withdrawal.
Divide this total by the monthly withdrawal amount of $28,500 to determine the number of months the fund will last.
Without the precise calculations, we cannot provide an exact number of months. Nevertheless, these steps outline the process the student should follow to determine the duration of the trust fund's payouts.
In 1993, the government increased the tax on gasoline producers from 14.1 cents per gallon to 18.4 cents per gallon. Our model of supply and demand predicts that:_____a. the demand for gasoline decreased. b. the supply for gasoline increased. c. the demand for gasoline increased. d. the supply for gasoline decreased. e. both the supply and demand for gasoline decreased.
Answer:
In 1993, the government increased the tax on gasoline producers from 14.1 cents per gallon to 18.4 cents per gallon. Our model of supply and demand predicts that
both the supply and demand for gasoline decreased.
Explanation:
The reason why both supply and demand will be decreased is a result in the increase of tax which will have direct effect on the price i.e the price will increase as result of tax increment and this will affect the rate at which the gasoline will be demanded for, hence; affects the supply rate as little quantity will be made available for sales.
On August 1, 2016, ACE Corp. purchased parts from SUPPLY Corp. In payment for the $54,000 purchase, ACE issued a 1-year installment note to be paid in equal monthly payments at the end of each month. The payments include interest at the rate of 12%.
1. What entry will ACE make to record the August 1, 2016 purchase of the parts?
2. What entry will ACE make to record the 1st installment payment on August 31, 2016? 3. How much interest expense will ACE report in its income statement for the year ended 12/31/2016?
Answer:
a- Parts - (asset) Dr $54000
Note payable Cr $54000
b- Note payable Dr $4500
Cash/Bank Cr 4500
c- Interest expense for the year end= $2700
Explanation:
The entry to record the purchase of parts from SUPPLY Corp will result in, an increase in asset and liability because ACE Corp isn't settling the purchase via a cash/bank payment rather it's issuing a 1-year installment note. Therefore the entry is as follows:
Parts - (asset) Dr $54000
Note payable Cr $54000
Now the payments on the 1-year note are installment based which means the $54000 note payments would have to be split between twelve months (i.e one year). The monthly payment would be $4500 against note payable.
The entry to record first installment payment on august is as follows:
Note payable Dr $4500
Cash/Bank Cr 4500
Moreover, along with payment of $4500 ACE Corp is also liable to pay interest on the payments made. Therefore, interest shall be calculated on monthly payment of $4500 at the rate of 12% as follows:
Interest on payment = $4500×12%
Interest on monthly payment = $540
The interest expense to be reported by ACE in its income statement for the year ended 12/31/2016 is of Five months (i.e from Aug till Dec), see as follows:
Interest expense for the year end= $540×5
Interest expense for the year end= $2700
Famous Productions performs London shows. The average show sells 900 tickets at $ 65 per ticket. There are 115 shows per year. No additional shows can be held as the theater is also used by other production companies. The average show has a cast of 55, each earning a net average of $ 330 per show. The cast is paid after each show. The other variable cost is a program-printing cost of $ 9 per guest. Annual fixed costs total $ 580 comma 500.
Compute revenue and variable costs for each show.
Final answer:
Revenue per show for Famous Productions is $58,500, and the variable costs per show are $26,250, which includes $18,150 for the cast and $8,100 for printing programs.
Explanation:
To compute the revenue and variable costs for each show for Famous Productions, we first calculate their revenue by multiplying the average tickets sold per show by the price per ticket. So, revenue per show would be 900 tickets × $65 = $58,500. Next, we calculate the variable costs which include the payment to the cast and the program-printing costs. Payment to the cast is 55 cast members × $330 each = $18,150, and program-printing costs are $9 × 900 guests = $8,100. Adding these together gives us the total variable costs per show: $18,150 for the cast plus $8,100 for programs, which equals $26,250.
For a nonmonetary exchange of plant assets, accounting recognition should not be given to
a. a loss when the exchange has no commercial substance.
b. a gain when the exchange has commercial substance.
c. part of a gain when the exchange has no commercial substance and cash is paid (cash paid/received is less than 25% of the fair value of the exchange).
d. part of a gain when the exchange has no commercial substance and cash is received (cash paid or received is less than 25% of the fair value of the exchange).
Answer: The correct answer is "c. part of a gain when the exchange has no commercial substance and cash is paid (cash paid/received is less than 25% of the fair value of the exchange).".
Explanation: For a nonmonetary exchange of plant assets, accounting recognition should not be given to part of a gain when the exchange has no commercial substance and cash is paid (cash paid/received is less than 25% of the fair value of the exchange).
In nonmonetary exchanges of plant assets in accounting, recognition should not be given to part of a gain when the exchange lacks commercial substance and cash is received, as long as the cash paid or received is less than 25% of the fair value of the exchange.
Explanation:In the context of accounting, a nonmonetary exchange of plant assets pertains to a transaction where an entity swaps assets that are not cash, for something else. The key rule is that accounting recognition should not be given to part of a gain when the exchange has no commercial substance and cash is received, if the cash paid or received is less than 25% of the fair value of the exchange, as per the US GAAP regulations. Hence, answer (d) is the most appropriate.
The recognition of a loss or gain when the exchange has commercial substance doesn't generally result in a defiance with US GAAP rules on recognition. A nonmonetary exchange that has commercial substance will generally lead to recognition of a loss or gain due the fact that the future cash flows change as a result of the transaction.

Holt Company purchased a computer for $8,000 on January 1, 2019. Straight-line depreciation is used, based on a 5-year life and a $1,000 salvage value. In 2021, the estimates are revised. Holt now feels the computer will be used until December 31, 2022, when it can be sold for $500?
Answer:
$2,350
Explanation:
On January 1, 2019
Cost of computer = $8,000
Useful life = 5 years
Salvage value = $1,000
Annual Depreciation = (8000 - 1000)/5
= 7000/5
= $1,400
In 2021 estimates are revised i.e after 2 years of use
Carrying value = 8000 - (2 × 1400)
= 8000 - 2800
= $5,200
Remaining Useful life after revised estimate = 2 years
Revised salvage value = 500
Annual depreciation = (5200 - 500)/2
= 4700/2
= $2,350
A company uses cash basis accounting. Their income statement for the year shows sales of $600,000 and net operating income of $200,000.

Data provided in the question:
Sales reported for the year = $600,000
Net operating income = $200,000
Accounts receivable = $120,000
Accounts payable = $40,000
Now,
The adjusted statements show sales of
= Sales reported for the year + Accounts receivable
or
= $600,000 + $200,000
or
= $720,000
hence,
The adjusted statements show sales of $720,000

Summarize the consequentialist arguments for and against affirmative action.
Answer:
Explanation:
Arguments supporting Affirmative Action:
1) Affirmative action is a method that ensure the diversity is obtained and maintained in schools and workplaces. Moreover, it also helps to create tolerant communities therefore, it exposes people to a variety of cultures and ideas that are different from their own.
2)Affirmative action assists disadvantaged people that come from areas of the country where opportunities are limited be able to advance and they otherwise could not. In other words, it bestows everybody the same playing field.
3)Affirmative action is for to help by compensating to some races who are"started late in the race" , due to many years of oppression, and it also helps level the playing field.
Arguments against Affirmative Action:
1) Affirmative Action can be described as reverse discrimination. More specifically, past discrimination against some minority groups does not justify existing discrimination against them.
2) It weakens the notion of meritocracy and instead weakens races as a dominant factor in recruitment and recruitment procedures. Regardless of the situation, the best people for the position should be placed there.
3) Students / staff involved in the approval process are often not fully prepared for the assignment.
4) Affirmative Action strengthens stereotypes and racism compared to the previous point. People who give a position almost positively because of their activity are often unsuitable and the idea that all people in this race are "stupid" is endless.
5) People of different races or ethnic backgrounds do not need to have differences of opinion in the workplace / university. People with the same skin color are not necessarily the same in terms of vision or culture.
The summary of the consequentialist arguments for and against affirmative action is:
Diversity is said to be gotten (FOR)It enables equality (FOR)It is seen as reverse discrimination (AGAINST)It eliminates meritocracy (AGAINST)What is Affirmative Action?This refers to the policy of favoring people who have been discriminated against before.

In January, Prahbu purchased a new machine for use in an existing production line of his manufacturing business for $90,000. Assume that the machine is a unit of property and is not a material or supply. Prahbu pays $2,500 to install the machine, and after the machine is installed, he pays $1,300 to perform a critical test on the machine to ensure that it will operate in accordance with quality standards. On November 1, the critical test is complete, and Prahbu places the machine in service on the production line. On December 3, Prahbu pays another $3,300 to perform periodic quality control testing after the machine is placed in service.
How much will Prahbu be required to capitalize as the cost of the machine?
Final answer:
Prabhu will capitalize a total of $93,800 as the cost of his new machine, including the purchase cost, installation fee, and pre-service testing.
Explanation:
The cost that Prahbu will be required to capitalize as the cost of the machine includes the purchase price, installation costs, and costs for testing performed before placing the machine into service. Specifically, these costs are the purchase price of the machine ($90,000), the installation cost ($2,500), and the cost of the pre-service critical test ($1,300). However, the periodic quality control testing costs performed after the machine is placed in service ($3,300) are generally considered operational expenses and are not capitalized.
Therefore, the total cost Prahbu will capitalize for the machine is:
Purchase: $90,000
Installation: $2,500
Pre-service testing: $1,300
Total capitalized cost: $93,800
Final answer:
The capitalized cost of the machine is $93,800, which includes the purchase price, installation fees, and critical testing costs. Periodic testing costs after the machine's installation are not capitalized.
Explanation:
Prahbu needs to determine the cost of the machine for his manufacturing business. To calculate this, he needs to add the cost of the machine, the installation costs, and the costs of any additional services that are necessary to prepare the machine for its intended use. The initial purchase price of the machine is $90,000. The installation costs are an additional $2,500. The critical testing that is required to ensure the machine operates to quality standards was $1,300, which is considered a capital expenditure since it's necessary to bring the asset to a working condition. Therefore, these costs should be included in the capitalization of the machine's cost. The total capitalized cost is the sum of these amounts: $90,000 + $2,500 + $1,300, equalling $93,800.
However, the $3,300 paid for periodic quality control testing after the machine is in service is not capitalized as it is considered a periodic expense and not essential to bring the asset to a working condition. Thus, this amount should be treated as an expense in the period it was incurred.
Which would likely require a cost development using reproduction cost?
A. Condominium
B. Historic landmark
C. Manufactured dwelling
D. Modern retail building
Answer: Option C
Explanation: Manufactured dwelling implies a trailer, a camper van or perhaps an engineered residence. It relates to a formation, portable in one or maybe more parts, that is built on a continuous frame and, when linked to the necessary services, is intended to be used even without a perpetual structure.
In simple words, Manufactured accommodation (usually referred to as U.S. mobile homes) is a form of precast concrete accommodation that is primarily constructed in manufacturing plants and then transferred to use locations. Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is C.
A company purchased factory equipment on April 1, 2017 for $168000. It is estimated that the equipment will have a $22000 salvage value at the end of its 10-year useful life. Using the straight-line method of depreciation, the amount to be recorded as depreciation expense at December 31, 2017 is a. $16800. b. $12600. c. $10950. d. $14600.
Answer:
c.10950
Explanation:
The depreciation expense in a particular year is charged from the date on which the asset is purchased by the entity. In this case, the factory equipment is purchased on April 1, 2017, so the depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 will be charged from April 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017 i.e. 9 months.
The Depreciation expense is calculated using the following formula:
(Cost of factory equipment-salvage value/useful life)*9/12
Depreciation expense=(168000-22000/10)*9/12=$10,950
Answer is c.$10950
Burnett Corp. pays a constant $8.75 dividend on its stock. The company will maintain this dividend for the next 10 years and will then cease paying dividends forever. If the required return on this stock is 12 percent, what is the current share price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Final answer:
The current share price calculation for Burnett Corp. involves discounting the promised $8.75 dividends over 10 years at a required return rate of 12 percent, using the present value formula for an annuity.
Explanation:
The student's question involves calculating the current share price of Burnett Corp., which pays a constant dividend and has a finite dividend-paying period. To find the share price, we must discount the stream of $8.75 dividends that will be received over the next 10 years back to present value terms using the required return rate of 12 percent. This is a typical problem encountered in finance and investment courses and involves the use of the present value formula for a finite annuity.
Dividends are a way for companies to share profits with shareholders, and the amount a shareholder receives is proportional to the number of shares owned. As noted, stable companies, like utility firms and well-known brands, often provide dividends as a way to return value to shareholders. The historic trends show a shift from higher dividends in the past to a focus on capital gains in more recent times.

On January 1, 2017, Garzon purchased 6% bonds issued by PBS Utilities at a cost of $40,000, which is their par value. The bonds pay interest semiannually on July 1 and January 1. For 2017, prepare entries to record Garzon's July 1 receipt of interest and its December 31 year-end interest accrual. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
July 1st: Debit Cash=$1,200 Credit Interest Received=$1,200
December 31st: Debit Interest Receivable=$1,200, Credit Interest Earned= $1,200
Explanation:
July 1st Receipt of Interest
Step 1: Calculate Interest Receivable for the entire Year
=($40,000×6%)= 40,000×0.06= $2,400
=$2,400
Step 2: Calculate Interest Receivable for the first 6 months (Semi-annual Payment)
January 1st to July 1st is 6 Months, we therefore divide the annual interest receivable into 2
$2,400÷2=$1,200
Step 3: Entries for the July 1 Receipt of Interest
Debit Cash = $1,200
Credit Interest Received=$1,200
Step 4: Calculate the Interest Accrual for the Decembe 31st
Between July 1st and December 31st is equally 6 months, therefore, the remaining $1,200 is for the second half of the year.
Step 5: Entries for December 31st Interest Accrual
Debit Interest Receivable = $1,200
Credit Interest Earned= $1,200

Ethan's Eggroll House, a calendar year corporation, purchased a new computer and printer in January for $1,500. In February, the business purchased a new oven for $1,200. No other assets were purchased during the year. How much depreciation will be taken on these items in the current year if the taxpayer does NOT elect to use Section 179 and does NOT use bonus depreciation?A. $300 computer; $171 ovenB. $525 computer; $300 ovenC. $375 computer; $300 ovenD. $300 computer; $240 ovenE. $525 computer; $420 ovenF. $214 computer; $171 oven
The depreciation for the computer and printer is $300 per year and for the oven is $171 per year. This calculation is based on the Straight-Line Depreciation Method. The correct answer is (A) $300 computer; $171 oven.
Explanation:To answer this question, we need to understand that the IRS sets a different rate for different types of tangible business property that can be depreciated over time. The computer and printer are typically classified as 'Information Systems' which have a depreciable life of 5 years. The oven is classified as 'Restaurant Equipment' which has a depreciable life of 7 years.
To calculate annual depreciation, we use straight-line depreciation, wherein the value of an asset is reduced uniformly over its predetermined life. For the computer and printer, the annual depreciation would be $1500 / 5 years = $300. For the oven, the annual depreciation would be $1200 / 7 years = $171.43 (round up to $172).
Therefore, the correct answer would be $300 depreciation for the computer and printer and $171 for the oven, making the correct answer (A).
