For a three-year simple payback period, the permissible capital investment is $60,000. What is the internal rate of return on this $60,000 battery pack if it has a residual value of $10,000 at the end of six years

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

26.14%

Explanation:

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-60,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 5 = $20,000

Cash flow in year 6 = $20,000 + $10,000 = $30,000

IRR = 26.14%

To find the IRR using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

2017 $ 400,000 $8,000

2018 600,000 14,000

$1,000,000 $22,000

At December 31, 2018, (assuming the accrual method) what amount should be reported as an estimated warranty liability?
Why are warranties recorded as an expense in the year of the sale, i.e., what accounting principle applies?

Answers

Answer:

1. $82,000

2. Accrual / Matching Principle

Explanation:

The two year warranty against defects is known as an Assurance Type Warranty.

With  Assurance Type Warranty, there is no option on the customer to take the warranty or not. Therefore this is not a separate performance obligation.

Assurance Type Warranty are accounted for in terms of IAS 37 Provisions.

At December 31, 2018, the Warranty Expense is calculated as follows :

Sales 2017 : $ 400,000 × 6%   = $ 24,000

Sales 2018 : $ 600,000 × 12% =  $ 72,000

Total                                          =  $ 96,000

Journal

Warranty Expense $ 96,000 (debit)

Warranty Provision $ 96,000 (credit)

When Warranty Claim is Subsequently received in 2018 the entries will be as follows :

Journal

Warranty Provision $14,000 (debit)

Cash $14,000 (credit)

Thus Warranty Liability will be : $ 96,000 - $14,000 = $82,000

A stock’s price fluctuations are approximately normally distributed with a mean of $29.51 and a standard deviation of $3.87. You decide to sell whenever the price reaches its highest 10% of values. What is the highest value you would still hold the stock?

Answers

Answer:

$34.46

Explanation:

In this Question there is Highest value of 10% and the probability of 90%.

we will use following formula to calculate the highest value of the stock

z value = ( x - mean ) / Standard deviation

where

x = the highest value

z score value at 10% = 1.28

Placing value in the formula

1.28 = ( x - $29.51 ) / $3.87

1.28 x $3.87 = x - $29.51

$4.9536 = x - $29.51

x = $4.9536 + $29.51

x = 34.4636

Effect on Liabilities = $50,000 + $568 + $1,648   =  ($52,216)

Effect on Equity (Total)                                            =   $20,184

Conclusion :

Therefore, After the adjustments stockholders’ equity on 7/31 will be  $20,184.

Country A is a main producer of agricultural goods. In the past three years, farmers in country A have seen their sales drop because consumers have begun to buy cheaper imported produce from country B. Not wanting the income of its farmers to drop, the government of country A imposes a tax on all agricultural imports from country B so that those goods are more expensive, and therefore less attractive, to consumers. The farmers in country A see their incomes begin to rise. Two months later, country B retaliates by levying a tax on all imports from country A. Because the manufacturing firms in country A lose business from the country they export to the most, they are forced to close.
What impact did the tariff that country A imposed on country B have?

Answers

Answer:

It created a trade barrier

Explanation:

trade barrier are government policies that restrict internatinoal trade.

The policy of country A on goods imported from country B created a barrier that affected country A's industries.

Answer:

Country B imposed a tariff on country A’s goods to retaliate for country A’s tariffs. So, while incomes increased for farmers in country A, the country’s manufacturers lost a substantial amount of export business. The manufacturers closed, and their employees lost their jobs. Ultimately, country A’s regulations had an unfavorable effect on the country’s own economy. Additionally, the tariff may have harmed country A’s reputation as a trade partner and affected its future trade prospects.

Which level of critical thinking have you reached when you are able to recall
something you know about the subject matter at hand?
a) Comprehension
b) Analysis
c) Knowledge
d) Application​

Answers

Answer:

d) Application

Explanation:

Critical thinking can be defined as the ability of an individual to establish clear and reflective thinking on any subject, whose focus is on making their own decisions and finding out what they want to believe in, rather than just accepting what they see or it is heard as an absolute truth.

Therefore, the most appropriate alternative to this question, about what is the level of critical thinking achieved when you can remember

something you know about a subject, is the application level.

Applying information occurs when a person makes use of information previously learned and understood, therefore the application of information on a new subject, helps in transferring solutions from one problem to solving another problem.

Answers

Answer:

The total medical expenses deductible before the​ 10% limitation is 2090

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

The Total expenses included is stated as follows:

Th Hotel room  is = $150 * two rooms * three nights

Mileage of = $900,

Miles = 1000

Doctor's bill ins an Francisco = 1,600

Now,

To next step is to find the total medical expenses deductible before the​ 10% limitation is given as follows:

Doctor's bill = 1,600

The total expenses  i hotel room is calculated as :150 * 1 *3 = 450

So,

The total = 1600 + 450 = 2050

It is also important to know that only 10% of the expense stay for the accompanied person is permitted

Therefore,

450*10% =45

Total 2050+45 = 2090

Explanation:

We can find the Annuity value by using the annuity formula which is as under:

Future Value = Annuity Value * Annuity Factor

Here

Future Value given is $1,000,000

Annuity Factor at 12% for 10 year bond = [1 - (1 + 12%)^10] / 12%  = 17.548735

By putting values in the formula given above, we have:

$1,000,000 / 17.548735  = Annuity Value

Annuity Value = $56,984

Suppose you were going to save $1,000 per year for three years at a 10% interest rate compounded annually, with the first investment occurring today. What would be the future value of this investment

Answers

Answer:

$13,310

Explanation:

The investment would be 100% = $1000 * 100% / 10% = $10,000

So this is the amount that would be deposited today to earn $1000 each year which is 10% of the amount deposited today.

The Future Value is given as under:

Future Value = Present Value * (1 + r)^n

Here,

Present value is $10,000

r is 10%

and n is 3 years

So, by putting values we have:

Future Value = $10,000 * (1 + 10%)^3  = $13,310

General formula for for finding rate of interest of a week

Week Rate = Previous Week's Rate (LIBOR from table) + Floating Rate

Lets find the values:

Week 2 rate  = Week 1 rate + 0.25%   = 1.98% + 0.25% = 2.23%

Week 3 rate  = Week 2 rate + 0.25%  = 1.64% + 0.25% = 1.89%

Week 4 rate  = Week 3 rate + 0.25%  = 1.54% + 0.25% = 1.79%

Week 5 rate  = Week 4 rate + 0.25%  = 1.31% + 0.25% = 1.56%

Week 5 rate is lower than the minimum rate, rate of Week 5 can be taken as minimum rate

Week 5 rate = 1.71%

Week 6 rate  = Week 5 rate + 0.25%  = 1.57% + 0.25% = 1.82%

Week 7 rate  = Week 6 rate + 0.25%  = 1.69% + 0.25% = 1.94%

Week 8 rate  = Week 7 rate + 0.25%  = 1.66% + 0.25% = 1.91%

Week 9 rate  = Week 8 rate + 0.25%  = 1.94% + 0.25% = 2.19%

Week 10 rate = Week 9 rate + 0.25%  = 1.92% + 0.25% = 2.17%

Assume that all investors have the same information and care only about expected return and volatility. If new information arrives about one​ stock, can this information affect the price and return of other​ stocks? If​ so, explain​ why? If new information arrives about one​ stock, can this information affect the price and return of other​ stocks?

Answers

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, because with the existence of the new information, there would be changes in attractiveness of the stock. If there are no changes in other stock prices, it, would change the expected return on this stock. If expected return was to go up, then investors would be interested in this stock, implying they would not be holding the market portfolio.

New information regarding stock attracts investors, leading to shift in portfolio of investor. With greater demand for the particular stock, revenues/prices of other stock declines. This is because, investor becomes more attracted to buying that particular stock and other stocks are sold off in the market.

A company estimates that the revenue (in dollars) from the sale of x doghouses is given by R(x)=14,000ln(0.01x+1). Use the differential to approximate the change in revenue fro the sale of one more doghouse if 110 doghouses have already been sold.

Answers

Answer: The change in revenue for the sale of 1 more doghouse $ 66.67 dollars

Explanation: Differential is a function that can be used to approximate function value with a great degree of accuracy. This is done by the following.

Mathematical definition of derivative: f'(x) = lim f(x+Δx) - f(x)/Δx.

If Δx is very small:

f'(x) . Δx ≅ f(x+Δx) - f(x)

Knowing that Δy ≅ f(x+Δx) - f(x) and the diferential of variable x can be written by dx as the variable y can be dy:

dy = f'(x) dx

which means that the differential dy is approximately equal to the change Δy, if Δx is very small.

For the question, R(x) = y(x) = 14,000ln(0.01x+1)

f'(x) = [tex]\frac{d[14,000.ln(0.01x+1)]}{dx}[/tex]

Using the chain rule, the derivative will be:

f'(x) = 14,000.[tex]\frac{0.01}{0.01x+1}[/tex]

dy = 14,000.[tex]\frac{0.01}{0.01x+1}[/tex].dx

dx is the change in x. For the question, the change is 1 (1 more doghouse) and x is 110:

dy = 14,000[tex]\frac{0.01}{0.01.110+1}.1[/tex]

dy = [tex]\frac{140}{2.1}[/tex]

dy = 66.67

The change in revenue is $66.67 dollars.

A $38,000 coil winding and unwinding machine is estimated to provide additional value to production by $15 per unit. When the machine is operated at 58 units per hour, it needs to be cooled down after 4 hours of operation and receive minor maintenance for 15 minutes. When the machine is operated at 118 units per hour, it needs to be cooled down after 5 hours of operation and receive minor maintenance for 30 minutes. The production line runs 8 hours per day. If each maintenance check costs $625 and the machine has a useful life of 80,000 hours of operations, at what speed should the machine should be operated

Answers

Answer: 118 units per hour

Explanation:

At 58 units per hour:

The cycle time = 4 hours + 0.25 hours

= 4.25 hours

The cycle per day = 8/4.25 = 1.88 cycle

The value added per day will be:

= 1.88 × 4 × 58 × 15

= $6542.4

The cost of maintenance per day will be: = 1.88 × $625 = $1175

The cost of operating the machine per day will be:

= $38,000/80,000 × 4 × 1.88

= $3.57

The net increase in the value per day will be:

= $6542.4 - $1175 - $3.57

= $5363.83

At 118 units per hour:

The cycle time = 5 hours + 0.5 hours

= 5.5 hours

The cycle per day = 8/5.5 = 1.45 cycle

The value added per day will be:

= 1.45 × 5 × 118 × 15

= $12832.5

The cost of maintenance per day will be: = 1.45 × $625 = $906.25

The cost of operating the machine per day will be:

= $38,000/80,000 × 5 × 1.45

= $3.44

The net increase in the value per day will be:

= $128322.5 - $906.25 - $3.44

= $11922.81

The machine should be operated at 118 units per hour because it gives a higher value.

On October 1, 2018, Iona Bell Co. issued stock options for 300,000 shares to a division manager. The options have an estimated fair value of $3 each. To provide additional incentive for managerial achievement, the options are not exercisable unless divisional revenue increases by 6% in three years. Bell initially estimates that it is not probable the goal will be achieved, but then after one year, Bell estimates that it is probable that divisional revenue will increase by 6% by the end of 2020. Bell will:

d. record compensation expense of $600,000 in 2019 and $300,000 in 2020.

Answers

Answer: d. record compensation expense of $600,000 in 2019 and $300,000 in 2020.

Explanation:

In 2019, with 2 years left on the on the incentive, the Iona Bell's estimate has changed from not believing that the target could be reached to believing that it could.

This will move their estimate for Compensation from 0 in 2018 to (300,000 * $3) $900,000 at the end of 2020.

They will have to account for it across the 2 remaining years.

In 2019, with 2 years out of 3 elapsed, they will apportion it in this manner ,

= 900,000 * 2/3 - $0 (previous year's estimate)

= 600,000 - 0

= $600,000

In 2020 with the third year elapsed, they will apportion it as such,

= 900,000 * 3/3 - $600,000 (previous year's estimate)

= $300,000

Cambridge Manufacturing Company applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of machine hours. At the beginning of the year, the company estimated its total overhead cost to be $325,000 and machine hours to be 25,000. Actual manufacturing overhead and machine hours were $372,000 and 26,000, respectively. Required: 1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate. 2. Compute applied manufacturing overhead. 3. Compute over- or underapplied manufacturing overhead.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The estimated total overhead= $325,000

Estimated machine hours= 25,000

Actual manufacturing overhead and machine hours were $372,000 and 26,000, respectively.

First, we need to calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate:

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 325,000/25,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $13 per machine-hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 13*26,000= $338,000

Finally, we determine the under/over allocation:

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead= 372,000 - 338,000= $34,000 underallocated

At December 31, the unadjusted trial balance of R&M Entertainment reports Unearned Revenue of $3,001 and Service Revenues of $33,944. 53% of the unearned revenue has been earned as of December 31. When R&M prepares the adjusting entry on December 31, what is the amount that will be reported as a liability on the balance sheet as of December 31?\

Answers

Answer:

$1410.47

Explanation:

Unearned revenue is the revenue upon which cash has been received by the entity prior to the entity discharging its responsibility of providing services in respect of the payment,hence it is a liability until it is finally earned and recorded as revenue.

The balance of the unearned revenue is the liability that R&M must report in its balance sheet as of December 31.

Balance of unearned revenue=$3,001-($3,001*53%)

balance of unearned revenue=$3,001-$1590.53 =$1410.47

Thomas Company has decided to purchase a company vehicle. The accountant was given all of purchase details. Which should be used to record the vehicle in the accounting records? The price negotiated with the dealer. The manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP). The amount of the loan with the bank. The average selling price of similar vehicles in the area.

Answers

Answer:

The price negotiated with the dealer.

Explanation:

Since in the question it is mentioned that the Thomas company decided to purchase a company vehicle. And the accountant provided all the purchase details.

So for recording the vehicle in the accounting records the price negotiated with the dealer is used as in the accounting, only numbers are recorded which are based on the type of the transactions.

The purchase details includes color of a vehicle, price, mileage, capacity, etc

Therefore for accounting purpose, we only considered the price and the same is to be considered.

Stoneheart Group is expected to pay a dividend of $3.17 next year. The company's dividend growth rate is expected to be 3.9 percent indefinitely and investors require a return of 11.7 percent on the company's stock. What is the stock price?

Answers

Answer:

The price of the stock= 40.64

Explanation:

According to the dividend growth model, the price of a stock is the present value of expected dividend discounted at the required rate of return.

This is done as follows:

Price of a stock = D×(1+r)/(r-g)

D(1+g) - Dividend for next year = 3.17

g- growth rate - 3.9%

r- required rate of return - 11.7%

P = 3.17/(0.117- 0.039)=40.641

The price of the stock= 40.64
