Answer:
$697,102.99
Explanation:
VU = EBIT(1 - tC)/RU
EBIT =$95,000
tC=21%
RU=11.7%
Hence
VU = ($95,000)(1 - .21)/.117
VU=($95,000)(0.79)/.117
VU=$75,050/0.117
VU = $641,452.99
The value of the levered firm:
VL = VU + tCD
VU=$641,452.99
tCD=0.21($265,000)
VL = $641,452.99+ .21($265,000)
VL=$641,452.99+$55,650
VL=$697,102.99
Therefore the value of the firm according to M&M Proposition I with taxes is $697,102.99

Salvia Company recently purchased a truck. The price negotiated with the dealer was $40,000. Salvia also paid sales tax of $2,000 on the purchase, shipping and preparation costs of $3,000, and insurance for the first year of operation of $4,000. At what amount should the truck be recorded on the balance sheet prior to recording depreciation expense
Answer:
The amount the truck should be recorded on the balance sheet prior to recording depreciation expense is $45,000.
Explanation:
The insurance premium of $4,000 would not be added to the cost of the truck. Insurance is usually for one year, it will be treated as prepayment and amortized over one year.
Based on IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, the cost of an asset includes directly attributed costs that are necessary to bring the assets to the condition intended by management. The cost components, based on the standard, are:
purchase price plus import duties and taxesany directly attributable cost to bring the sset to the location and condition to be capable of operating in the manner intended by managementthe initial estimated of the cost of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is locatedBased on the above, the cost is $40,000 + $2,000 + $3,000 = $45,000
Prahm Corp. wants to raise $4.7 million via a rights offering. The company currently has 530,000 shares of common stock outstanding that sell for $48 per share. Its underwriter has set a subscription price of $23 per share and will charge the company a spread of 5 percent. If you currently own 6,000 shares of stock in the company and decide not to participate in the rights offering, how much money can you get by selling your rights? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
If you choose not to participate in Prahm Corp.'s rights offering and sell your 6,000 rights, you can receive approximately $37,500 based on a subscription price of $23 per share and an ex-rights price of $12.50.
To calculate the value of the rights, you can follow these steps:
1. Determine the Subscription Ratio:
[tex]\[ \text{Subscription Ratio} = \frac{\text{Number of New Shares Issued}}{\text{Number of Existing Shares}} \][/tex]
In a rights offering, the subscription ratio is usually 1:1, meaning for every existing share, shareholders can buy one new share.
2. Calculate the Number of Rights You Hold:
[tex]\[ \text{Number of Rights} = \text{Number of Existing Shares You Own} \times \text{Subscription Ratio} \] \[ \text{Number of Rights} = 6,000 \times 1 \][/tex]
3. Determine the Ex-Rights Price:
[tex]\[ \text{Ex-Rights Price} = \frac{\text{Market Price - Subscription Price}}{1 + \text{Subscription Ratio}} \] \[ \text{Ex-Rights Price} = \frac{\$48 - \$23}{1 + 1} \][/tex]
4. Calculate the Value of One Right:
[tex]\[ \text{Value of One Right} = \text{Ex-Rights Price} - \text{Subscription Price} \] \[ \text{Value of One Right} = \frac{\$48 - \$23}{1 + 1} - \$23 \][/tex]
5. Calculate the Total Value of Your Rights:
[tex]\[ \text{Total Value of Rights} = \text{Number of Rights} \times \text{Value of One Right} \][/tex]
Now, you can substitute the values and calculate:
[tex]\[ \text{Ex-Rights Price} = \frac{\$48 - \$23}{1 + 1} = \frac{\$25}{2} = \$12.50 \]\[ \text{Value of One Right} = \frac{\$25}{2} - \$23 = \$6.25 \]\[ \text{Total Value of Rights} = 6,000 \times \$6.25 \]\[ \text{Total Value of Rights} = \$37,500 \][/tex]
Therefore, if you decide not to participate in the rights offering and choose to sell your rights, you can potentially receive $37,500.
How does a payroll accountant use the information in the General Ledger? (You may select more than one answer. The account balances form the basis for accounting reports. Payroll expenses contained in the General Ledger are not used to make personnel decisions. General Ledger account balances aggregate data to determine payroll costs. The payroll accountant uses General Ledger balances to determine the effectiveness of individual employees.
A payroll accountant uses the General Ledger to manage payroll expenses, prepare accounting reports, and ensure accurate financial statements. They do not assess individual employee effectiveness but focus on overall payroll cost aggregation and reconciliation.
A payroll accountant primarily utilizes information within the General Ledger to manage and analyze the company's payroll expenses. The account balances found in the General Ledger serve as the foundation for various accounting reports and are crucial for accurate financial statement preparation.
Contrary to assessing individual employee effectiveness, which is not the role of a payroll accountant, the General Ledger helps in aggregating data to determine overall payroll costs, ensuring that payroll is correctly accounted for as an expense of the organization in line with the accounting recognition principles.
In practice, the payroll accountant might also use the General Ledger to reconcile payroll expenses and ensure that they are accurately reported in those financial statements, which include the income statement and balance sheet.
They aim to verify that expenses align with budgeted amounts and to check for accuracy in employee compensation, taxes, benefits, and other associated costs. It's important to understand that the personnel decisions or assessing individual employee performance are generally not derived from payroll accounting but rather from human resources management metrics and performance evaluations.
Mr. Bass transferred a building that had an adjusted basis to him of $300,000 and a fair market value of $500,000, to Corporation C solely in exchange for 100% of C’s only class of stock. The building was subject to a mortgage of $100,000, which C assumed for bona fide business purposes. The fair market value of the stock on the date of transfer was $550,000. What is the amount of gain to be recognized by Mr. Bass?
Answer:
$0
Explanation:
This transaction classifies as a § 351 exchange since Mr. Bass is exchanging his asset for 100% of Corporation C's stock.
§ 351 establishes that no gain or loss must be recognized when property is transferred in exchange for stock in a corporation. In order for this exchange to classify as § 351, the new stockholder must assume immediate control of the corporation as established by § 368 (c). This means that at least 80% of the stocks must be exchanged.
Sharon Foods Company reported the following transactions for September 2017. a) The business received a $21,000 cash contribution from the owner. It was credited to Sharon, Capital. b) The business purchased office equipment for $9,000 for which $4,000 cash was paid and the balance was put on a note payable. c) Paid insurance expense of $1,500 cash. d) Paid the September utility bill for $800 cash. e) Paid $1,600 cash for September rent. f) The business had sales of $12,000 in September. Of these sales, 40% were cash sales, and the balance was credit sales. g) The business paid $8,000 cash for office furniture. What are the total liabilities at the end of September, 2017
Answer:
The total liabilities at end of September is $5,000
Explanation:
The $21,000 received from business owner is capital which would have been credited to capital and debited to cash.
The purchase of office equipment meant that cash decreased by $4000,a credit of $4,000 and a credit of $5,000 to notes payable while the $9000 is debited to equipment account.
The insurance expense,utility bill,rent as well as the purchase of office furniture were all cash settled and had no liability impact,hence the only liability outstanding at month end is the notes payable on office equipment of $5,000
Dawson Toys, Ltd., produces a toy called the Maze. The company has recently established a standard cost system to help control costs and has established the following standards for the Maze toy: Direct materials: 8 microns per toy at $0.32 per micron Direct labor: 1.2 hours per toy at $6.50 per hour During July, the company produced 5,100 Maze toys. The toy's production data for the month are as follows: Direct materials: 78,000 microns were purchased at a cost of $0.28 per micron. 27,000 of these microns were still in inventory at the end of the month. Direct labor: 6,620 direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $46,340.
Compute the direct materials price and quantity variances for July. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effectCompute the direct labor rate and efficiency variances for July. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect
Answer:
1.-3,120 Favorable variance.
2.$704Unfavorable variance
Explanation:
Material price variance:
Actual price is $0.28
Standard price 0.32
Actual quantity 78,000
Material price variance = (Actual price - Standard price) Actual quantity=
(0.28 - 0.32)*78,000
= (-0.04) 78,000= -3,120 Favorable variance.
2. Material quantity variance:
Actual quantity of material used (78,000 - 27,000) = 51,000
Standard quantity of material for the actual level of production (5,100 toys x 8 microns per toy) =48,800 toys
Standard price per unit of material = $0.32
Material quantity variance = (Actual quantity used - Standard quantity of material for actual level of production) Standard price
= (51,000 - 48,800)* $0.32
= (2,200) $0.32 = $704Unfavorable variance
Answer:
Explanation:
Std material Qty allowed (5100*8) = 40800
Std price: 0.32
Actual qty purchased: 78000
Actual qty used: 78000-27000 =51000
Actual price = 0.28
Material price variance= Actual Qty (Std price -Actual price)
78000 (0.32- 0.28) = 3120 fav
Material Qty variance= Std price (Std qty-Actual Qty )
0.32 (40800-51000) = 3264 Unfav
Std labor hours (5100*1.2) = 6120 Hours
Std rate per hour: 6.50
Actual Labor hours: 6620 hours
Actual labor cost = 46340
labor rate variance = Actual hours *Std rate-Actual labor cost
6620 *6.50 - 46340 = 3310 Unfav
Labor efficiency variance = Std price (Std hours -Actual hours )
6.50 (6120-6620 ) = 3250 Unfav
Quantum Company uses the highminuslow method to estimate the cost function. The information for 2017 is provided below: Machineminushours Labor Costs Highest observation of cost driver 1 comma 000 $ 32 comma 000 Lowest observation of cost driver 200 $ 16 comma 000 What is the estimated cost function for the above data? A. y = 32 comma 000 + 32X B. y = 12 comma 000 + 20X C. y = 20 comma 000 + 80X D. y = 16 comma 000 + 40X
Answer:
The correct option is B,y = 12 comma 000 + 20X
Explanation:
Total =fixed cost+(variable cost*X)
where X is quantity of items produced
Variable cost=Highest observation cost-lowest observation/highest machine hours-lowest machine hours
variable cost=$32,000-$16,000/(1000-200)=$20
Substituting the variable cost in highest activity figures,we would arrive at fixed cost
$32000=fixed cost+($20*1000)
$32000=fixed cost+$20,000
fixed cost=$32,000-$20,000=$12,000
The correct option is B,y=12,000+20X
The y stands for total cost

Ana was complaining about her workload before the staff meeting began. Later, when the manager announced that twelve parking spaces would be lost as a result of construction across the street, she raised her hand and said, "Then where, exactly, do you expect us to park?" The manager tried to provide some recommendations, but Ana continued to complain until the manager gave up and announced that the meeting was over.
What should Ana do to make the next meeting more effective and productive?
Answer:
Bring a positive attitude
Explanation:
In this scenario Ana was already frustrated by the excess workload she has before attending the meeting. So when the manager raised the issue of construction affecting parking spaces she expressed a negative reaction, and kept complaining until the manager gave up and announced that the meeting was over.
For the next meeting to be more productive Ana should bring a positive mindset, and consider recommendations provided by the manager.
This will result in her working collaboratively with the manager to find solutions to the parking space problem.
Poodle Corporation was organized on January 3, 2021. The firm was authorized to issue 83,000 shares of $5 par common stock. During 2021, Poodle had the following transactions relating to shareholders' equity: Issued 26,000 shares of common stock at $6.40 per share. Issued 23,000 shares of common stock at $9.30 per share. Reported net income of $110,000. Paid dividends of $50,000. What is total paid-in capital at the end of 2021
Answer:
$380,300
Explanation:
Paid-in-capital is the amount of cash received from the investors of the company for issuance of stocks. Paid-in-capital is recorded for both common and preferred stock separately. The value st par is recorded separately from the value excess of par of each stock type.
Issue of stock
first issuance
Common stock = 26,000 shares x $5 = $130,000
Add-in capital excess of par- Common shares = 26,000 shares x ( $6.4 - $5 )
Add-in capital excess of par- Common shares = $36,400
second issuance
Common stock = 23,000 shares x $5 = $115,000
Add-in capital excess of par- Common shares = 23,000 shares x ( $9.3 - $5 )
Add-in capital excess of par- Common shares = $98,900
Total Paid-in-capital = ($130,000 + $36,400) + ($115,000 + $98,900)
Total Paid-in-capital = $166,400 + $213,900 = $380,300
To find the total paid-in capital for Poodle Corporation at the end of 2021, add the amounts received from the issuance of common stock. The total paid-in capital at the end of 2021 is $380,300.
Total Paid-In Capital Calculation:
Calculate the total paid-in capital by adding the amounts received from the issuance of common stock. $6.40 per share * 26,000 shares + $9.30 per share * 23,000 shares = Total Paid-In Capital.
Calculate the total paid-in capital: $166,400 + $213,900 = Total Paid-In Capital.
Total Paid-In Capital at the end of 2021 is $380,300.

Explanation:
Volunteer work must be recorded in the In-Kind Contributions account, which is used to record contributions received as volunteer work:
E.g.
Dr Wages and salaries - masonry 1,200,000
Cr In-kind contributions 1,200,000 (or contribution revenue)
Volunteer work does not accumulate revenue, since it must be expensed immediately against the appropriate account. The finished building must be recorded at fair value.
Peter's Plants, Inc., specializes in growing Pink Tuberous Begonia flowers. Peter's enters into a contract to deliver 1,000 of its genetically modified pink begonias to Lester's Flowers for $5 a plant. Relying on the contract, Lester's enters into a second contract with a large apartment complex to plant 1,000 pink begonias around its property. A large ice storm demolishes all of Peter's begonia flowers. In turn, Peter's didn't meet its supply to Lester's, and Lester's didn't plant the flowers at the apartment complex. The apartment complex sues Lester's for breach of contract, and Peter's is brought as a cross-claim defendant. What are the arguments Lester's and Peter's should make in defense of not performing under their respective contracts
Answer:
Explanation:
This incident occurred as a result of natural disaster which was beyond the control of the parties involved. Moreover , this incident would have been covered by so many news media and channels which would serve as evidences to buttress their claim.
Therefore , it is easier to make a defense in the fact that the breach occurred due to the natural disaster that was neither forseen nor could be prevented by their effort.
Lester's Flowers and Peter's Plants, Inc. can argue that they were unable to perform their contracts due to the ice storm.
Explanation:In this scenario, both Lester's Flowers and Peter's Plants, Inc. can make arguments in defense of not performing under their respective contracts due to the unforeseeable event of an ice storm. Lester's Flowers can argue that the ice storm prevented them from receiving the pink begonias from Peter's Plants, Inc. and therefore they could not fulfill their contract with the apartment complex. Peter's Plants, Inc. can argue that the ice storm destroyed their flowers and prevented them from meeting their supply obligations to Lester's Flowers.

Suppose seafood price and quantity data for the years 2000 and 2009 follow. Use 2000 as the base period. Seafood 2000 Qty. (lb) 2000 Price ($/lb) 2009 Price ($/lb) Halibut 75,190 2.01 2.33 Lobster 83,080 3.62 3.09 Tuna 50,779 1.87 1.97 (a) Compute a price relative for each type of seafood. (Round your answers to one decimal place.) Seafood Price Relative Halibut Lobster Tuna (b) Compute a weighted aggregate price index for the seafood catch. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
Answer:
a) Price Relative for Halibut is 115.9 (1 d.p)
Price Relative for Lobster is 85.4 (1 d.p)
Price Relative for Tuna is 105.4 (1 d.p)
b) The Weighted Aggregate Price Index for the seafood catch is 98.4.
Explanation:
a) The Price Relative for a good refers to it's current price divided by it's base price times 100. It therefore measures a change in price across different periods.
Writing the formula as stated is,
Price Relative = Current Price / Base Price * 100
Price Relative for Halibut = 2.33/2.01 * 100
= 115.9 (1 d.p)
Price Relative for Lobster = 3.09/3.62 * 100
= 85.4 (1 d.p)
Price Relative for Tuna = 1.97/1.87 * 100
= 105.35
= 105.4 (1 d.p)
b) The Weighted Aggregate Price Index enables us to see how prices in a particular basket has changed over a period of time. It is calculated as follows,
Weighted Price Index = (Sum of Weighted Current Price ) / ( Sum of weighted Base Price) * 100
Sum of Weighted Current Price = (75,190 * 2.33) + (83,080 * 3.09) + ( 50,779 * 1.97)
= 538,124.53
Sum of Weighted Base Price = (75,190 * 2.01) + (83,080 * 3.62) + ( 50,779 * 1.87)
= 546,838.23
Weighted Price Index = (538,124.53 / 546,838.23) *100
= 98.4
The Weighted Aggregate Price Index for the seafood catch is 98.4.
Cosmo contributed land with a fair market value of $332,500 and a tax basis of $138,000 to the Y Mountain partnership in exchange for a 40 percent profits and capital interest in the partnership. The land is secured by $163,000 of nonrecourse debt. Other than this nonrecourse debt, Y Mountain partnership does not have any debt
a. How much gain will Cosmo recognize from the contribution? (Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable.)
b. What is Cosmo’s tax basis in his partnership interest?
Answer:
a. Zero gain
b. Cosmo’s tax basis in his partnership interest is $55,200
Explanation:
a. According to the given data there is a Zero gain, therefore Cosmo will recognize $ 0 gain from the contribution.
b. In order to calculate Cosmo’s tax basis in his partnership interest we would have to make the following calculation:
Cosmo’s tax basis in his partnership interest= tax basis to the Y Mountain partership×percentage of profits and capital interest in the partnership
Cosmo’s tax basis in his partnership interest=$138,000×40%
Cosmo’s tax basis in his partnership interest=$55,200
Cosmo’s tax basis in his partnership interest is $55,200
Final answer:
Cosmo will recognize $0 in gain from the contribution of land to the Y Mountain partnership. His initial tax basis in the partnership interest will also be $0 after accounting for relief of the nonrecourse debt.
Explanation:
Calculation of Gain Recognition and Tax Basis:
Cosmo contributed land to the Y Mountain partnership which triggers certain tax considerations. Firstly, the gain recognition:
Cosmo would not recognize any gain on the contribution of property to a partnership in exchange for an interest in the partnership under Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code, assuming the contribution did not result in a change of 80% or more of the ownership of the partnership.Thus, the gain Cosmo recognizes is:
Recognized Gain: $0Next, for the tax basis in the partnership interest:
The basis of his land contributed is $138,000.However, since the land is subject to a $163,000 nonrecourse debt which the partnership assumes, Cosmo must reduce his basis by the amount of the debt relieved.Therefore, Cosmo's initial basis would be decreased by the nonrecourse debt.Adjusted Tax Basis = $138,000 - $163,000 = -$25,000. However, since basis cannot be negative, Cosmo's basis would be $0. It's important to note that future income allocations or additional contributions could increase this basis.In conclusion, Cosmo's initial tax basis in the partnership is $0.
Keating Co. is considering disposing of equipment with a cost of $72,000 and accumulated depreciation of $50,400. Keating Co. can sell the equipment through a broker for $26,000 less 10% commission. Alternatively, Gunner Co. has offered to lease the equipment for five years for a total of $48,000. Keating will incur repair, insurance, and property tax expenses estimated at $8,000 over the five-year period. At lease-end, the equipment is expected to have no residual value. The net differential income from the lease alternative is
a. $24,900
b. $19,920
c. $16,600
d. $11,620
Answer:
Option (c) : $16,600
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
For computing the net differential income we need to do following calculations which are shown below:
Sales consideration = $26,000
Commission = $26,000×10%
= $2,600
Net income = $26,000 - $2,600
= $23,400
Lease amount = $48,000
Repair, insurance, and property tax expenses = $8,000
Net income = $48,000 - $8,000
= $40,000
Income if offer of lease accepted = $40,000
Income if equipment is sold through a broker = $23,400
Net differential income from the lease alternative =$40,000 - $23,400
= $16,600
Hence, option (c) : $16,600 is correct answer.

-The company can produce as many as 5,000 wrenches per day, but is more likely to produce 4,500 per day.
-The demand for wrenches for the next three years is expected to average 4,250 wrenches per day.
-Fixed manufacturing costs per month total $374,000.
-The company works 22 days a month.
-Fixed manufacturing overhead is charged on a per-wrench basis.
Required: Answer a. – d. below
a. What is the theoretical fixed manufacturing overhead rate per wrench for the next month?
b. What is the practical fixed manufacturing overhead rate per wrench for the next month?
c. What is the normal fixed manufacturing overhead rate per wrench for the next month?
d. What is the master-budget fixed manufacturing overhead rate per wrench for the next month?
Answer:
a. $3.40 per wrench
b. $3.78 per wrench
c. $4 per wrench
d. $3.82 per wrench
Explanation:
a) Theoretical Fixed Manufacturing Overhead.
This is the cost associated with what the company can produce.
They can produce as much as 5,000 wrenches per day for 22 days on a budget of $374,000.
Theoretical Manufacturing Overhead is therefore,
= 374,000 / ( 5,000 * 22)
= $3.40 per wrench.
b. The Practical Fixed Overhead would be the costs to be incurred with the more likely level of production.
Company will more likely produce 4,500 wrenches a day.
Following from a,
= 374,000 / (4,500 * 22)
= 3.7778
= $3.78 per wrench.
c. The normal overhead is the cost associated when the company produces according to demand.
The demand is expected to be 4,250 wrenches for the next 3 years.
Therefore,
= 374,000 ( 4,250 * 22)
= $4 per wrench.
d. The master budget overhead rate is cost associated with the level the company Plans to produce.
Soul Socket plans to produce 4,450 wrenches a day.
Therefore,
= 374,000 (4,450 * 22)
= $3.82 per wrench.
Joslyn Company manufactures metal brackets. The estimated number of metal bracket sales for the first three months of the current year is: Month Unit Sales January 1,250 February 1,400 March 1,200 Finished goods inventory at the end of last December was 300 units. Desired ending finished goods inventory is equal to 20 percent of the next month's sales. Joslyn Company expects to sell the brackets for $20 each. How many brackets should Joslyn produce in February?
Answer:
Production= 1,240 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales:
February= 1,250
March= 1,200
Desired ending finished goods inventory is equal to 20 percent of the next month's sales.
To determine the production required for February, we need to use the following formula:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Production= 1,250 + (1,200*0.2) - (1,250*0.2)
Production= 1,240 units
What is ecotourism? Write a short essay that includes the following information:
1. your own definition
2. definitions provided by other people and/or organizations; select the one you consider most accurate and complete
3. the main guidelines or requirements for ecotravelers
4. a statement indicating whether you think ecotourism is a good way to protect the environment; why or why not?
Explanation:
1. For me, ecotourism seeks to protect the natural resources that we have in the present so that future generations have the opportunity to take advantage of them, while promoting social, cultural and economic growth of the local population. According to other definitions, ecotourism is an environmentally responsible tourist modality. Its purpose is to visit and enjoy relatively unalterable natural areas as well as any cultural manifestation of the present or past, with the active participation of local populations. Ecotourism includes educational and interpretive content and tries to reduce negative impacts on the natural and socio-cultural environment as much as possible.
-The Ministry of Tourism in Mexico defines Ecotourism in the following way: "they are the trips that have the purpose of carrying out recreational activities of appreciation and knowledge of nature through contact with it." From another perspective, it is a tourist product aimed at those tourists who enjoy natural history, and who want to actively support and participate in the conservation of the environment.
-The environmentalist architect and international consultant of Mexican origin, Héctor Ceballos Lascuráin, popularized in 1993 when he was included in the book “Ecotourism. The Potential and the Pitfalls ”:
"Ecotourism is an environmentally responsible tourist modality, consisting of traveling to or visiting natural areas relatively undisturbed in order to enjoy, appreciate and study the natural attractions (landscape, wild flora and fauna) of said areas, as well as any cultural manifestation ( of the present and the past) that can be found there, through a process that promotes conservation, has a low negative environmental and cultural impact and fosters an active and socioeconomically beneficial involvement of local populations. ”
Ecotourism aims to achieve the preservation and maintenance of natural ecosystems; tourism plays its role as a supplier of oil economic that directly benefits local residents. Community will provide their knowledge and services to tourists and they will benefit economically.
- Ecotourism provides jobs and income to the local population.
-Provide environmental education to tourists.
-Create funds for purchase and supplies for improvement and protection of natural areas. This is beneficial to attract future tourism.
- Motivates the preservation of the environment and the creation of new or larger national parks, biosphere reserve, preservation of forests, recreation areas, beaches and natural attractions.
Third world countries are important recipients of ecotourism. In Brazil nature trips have become one of the new and more great markets of economic income of the country. In south-central Africa, the Rwanda's ecotourism is the third largest source of resources economic.
Final answer:
Ecotourism is conscious travel that conserves environments and benefits locals. It's important for economic development and environmental protection, but it requires strict adherence to sustainability to avoid greenwashing. Ecotourism can be a powerful conservation tool if managed responsibly.
Explanation:
Ecotourism refers to a form of tourism that is directed towards exotic natural environments, intended to support conservation efforts and observe wildlife. My own definition of ecotourism is the practice of visiting natural areas with the intention to learn, appreciate, and participate in conservation while striving to have minimal impact on the ecosystem. This form of tourism generates revenue for conservation, educates the traveler, and directly benefits the economic development of local communities. The International Ecotourism Society provides a more formal definition, describing ecotourism as 'responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment, sustains the well-being of the local people, and involves interpretation and education'. Jonathan Tourtellot's concept of geotourism complements this by emphasizing the 'stewardship of place'.
The main guidelines for ecotravelers include respecting local cultures and natural habitats, participating in conservation efforts, minimizing environmental impact, and supporting local economies. It is crucial that ecotourism maintains ethical standards and is accessible, not just to wealthy tourists but also to local residents.
In my opinion, ecotourism is an effective tool for environmental protection as it provides economic incentives to preserve natural areas, engages local communities and travelers in conservation, and fosters greater environmental awareness. However, without rigorous standards, there is a risk of greenwashing, where claims of sustainability are made without substantive actions to back them up. Therefore, the success of ecotourism as a conservation strategy depends on robust management and genuine commitment to sustainability principles.
Lois Bragg owns a small restaurant in Boston. Ms. Bragg provided her accountant with the following summary information regarding expectations for the month of June. The balance in accounts receivable as of May 31 is $56,000. Budgeted cash and credit sales for June are $145,000 and $591,000, respectively. Credit sales are made through Visa and MasterCard and are collected rapidly. Sixty five percent of credit sales is collected in the month of sale, and the remainder is collected in the following month. Ms. Bragg's suppliers do not extend credit. Consequently, she pays suppliers on the last day of the month. Cash payments for June are expected to be $710,000. Ms. Bragg has a line of credit that enables the restaurant to borrow funds on demand; however, they must be borrowed on the last day of the month. Interest is paid in cash also on the last day of the month. Ms. Bragg desires to maintain a $38,000 cash balance before the interest payment. Her annual interest rate is 10 percent. Required Compute the amount of funds Ms. Bragg needs to borrow for June. Determine the amount of interest expense the restaurant will report on the June pro forma income statement. What amount will the restaurant report as interest expense on the July pro forma income statement
Answer:
Compute the amount of funds Ms. Bragg needs to borrow for June.
$162,850Determine the amount of interest expense the restaurant will report on the June pro forma income statement.
$0, money is borrowed on June 30th there is no interest expense during JuneWhat amount will the restaurant report as interest expense on the July pro forma income statement
$1,357Explanation:
accounts receivable May 31 is $56,000.
budgeted cash sales for June $145,000
credit sales for June $591,000
65% of credit sales are collected in current month, 35% collected next month
suppliers are paid on the last day of the month
budgeted cash payments for June 30th = $710,000
cash balance $38,000
how much money does Ms. Bragg need to borrow on June 30?
total cash collections in June = $56,000 (from previous month) + $145,000 (cash sales) + $384,150 (65% of $591,000) = $585,150
payments - cash collected = $710,000 - $585,150 = $124,850
money borrowed on June 30 = $124,850 + $38,000 (desired cash balance) = $162,850
interest expense during July = $162,850 x 10% x 1/12 = $1,357
Which one of the following statements is correct? Question 19 options: A longer payback period is preferred over a shorter payback period. The payback rule states that you should accept a project if the payback period is less than one year. The payback period ignores the time value of money. The payback rule is biased in favor of long-term projects. The payback period considers the timing and amount of all of a project's cash flows.
Answer:
The payback period ignores the time value of money.
Explanation:
This could primarily be classified to be amongst the major disadvantages of the payback period that it ignores the time value of money which is a very important business concept. In the other hand, the payback period disregards the time value of money. It is determined by counting the number of years it takes to recover the funds invested. Some analysts favor the payback method for its simplicity. Others like to use it as an additional point of reference in a capital budgeting decision framework.
The payback period does not account for what happens after payback, ignoring the overall profitability of an investment.
The correct statement here is that the payback period ignores the time value of money.
Contrary to what is obtainable in other ways of capital budgeting, the payback period is known to not have the need for the time value of money.
The time value of money can be described as the idea that the money that is at hand today has more value than the same amount of money in the future.
This is due to the potential that the money has today in terms of earnings.

For which capital component must you make a tax adjustment when calculating a firm’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC)? Equity Preferred stock Debt Water and Power Company (WPC) can borrow funds at an interest rate of 10.20% for a period of seven years. Its marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%. WPC’s after-tax cost of debt is (rounded to two decimal places). At the present time, Water and Power Company (WPC) has 5-year noncallable bonds with a face value of $1,000 that are outstanding. These bonds have a current market price of $1,050.76 per bond, carry a coupon rate of 10%, and distribute annual coupon payments. The company incurs a federal-plus-state tax rate of 25%. If WPC wants to issue new debt, what would be a reasonable estimate for its after-tax cost of debt (rounded to two decimal places)? (Note: Round your YTM rate to two decimal place.) 6.53% 7.51% 5.22% 7.84%
Answer:
Debt
7.65%
6.53%
Explanation:
The debt finance has its capital component adjusted for tax when computing weighted average cost of capital.
The after tax cost of borrowing =pretax cost of debt*(1-t)
t is the tax rate of 25% or 0.25
The after tax cost of borrowing =10.20%*(1-0.25)=7.65%
The pretax cost of bond=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the duration of bond which is 5 years
pmt is the annual interest=$1000*10%=$100
pv is the current price of $1,050.76
fv is the face value of $1000
=rate(5,100,-1050.76,1000)=8.70%
After tax cost of bond=8.70% *(1-0.25)=6.53%

Sheldon, Inc. declared a stock dividend of 50,000 shares on a date when the company's common stock was selling for $ 18 per share. Prior to this date, Sheldon had 500,000 outstanding shares of $ 1 par value common stock. As a result of this stock dividend, Sheldon's common stock will ________, the additional paidminusin capital will ________, and the retained earnings will ________.
Answer:
As a result of this stock dividend, Sheldon's common stock will increase by $900,000, the additional paid in capital will not change, and the retained earnings will decrease by $900,000
Explanation:
Stock dividend is paying dividends by issuing additional stocks to shareholders.
In this case,50,000 shares were issued instead of paying cash dividends.
The stock dividend is financed from retained earnings and the amount involved is $900,000(50000*$18).
However,common stock would witness an increase of $900,000 by a way of credit and retained earnings would reduce by the same amount with no impact in the paid in capital in excess of par since the par value of the stock was not provided,hence it is no par value stock.
