Answer:
I had once visited a client and he, unusually, offered me a complimentary tip. Somewhere at the back of my mind, it felt off. So I declined. He on the other hand persisted.
Because I wanted to round up the meeting, I eventually accepted and left.
The next day was our weekly in-house academy - a day of the week when we set aside about 2 hours for learning and re-learning.
At that meeting, the HR Executive did a reminder on the value of the organisation, as well as the ethics which guide our operations. There she mentioned categorically that it was prohibited by the company to accept any type of cash gifts from the client or from the insurance companies.
As, soon as the meeting was done, I reported myself to the HR Executive and she advised that I return it and I did immediately, thankfully, the exact note was still in my possession.
I wrote a letter to the client respectfully returning the gift on the grounds that company policy forbade it and that marked the end of that episode.
If I had the company blueprint on ethics at my fingertips, I would have insisted on my initial position not to take the gift.
Cheers
Heels, a shoe manufacturer, is evaluating the costs and benefits of new equipment that would custom fit each pair of athletic shoes. The customer would have his or her foot scanned by digital computer equipment; this information would be used to cut the raw materials to provide the customer a perfect fit. The new equipment costs $107,000 and is expected to generate an additional $43,000 in cash flows for five years. A bank will make a $107,000 loan to the company at a 15% interest rate for this equipment’s purchase. Compute the recovery time for both the payback period and break-even time. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
Chart Values are Based on:
10%
Cumulative Cash Inflow Present Value of Inflow Year Present Value PV Factor (Outflow) (Outflow)
(91,000) x 1.0000- (91,000) $ (91,000) 36,000 x 36,000 x 2.5 years
Answer:
Payback period = 2.49 years
Break-even time = 3.36 years
Explanation:
a. Calculation of payback period
The payback period can be described as the amount of time it will take a firm recover its cost on a project or an investment.
The payback period can be calculated as follows:
Equipment cost = $107,000
Annual cash flow = $43,000
Payback period = Equipment cost / Annual cash flow = $107,000 / $43,000 = 2.49 years
b. Calculation of break-even time
Note: See the attached excel file for the computation of the cumulative present value of inflow (outflow).
In the attached excel, the present value (PV) factor is calculated using the following formula:
PV factor = 1/(1 + r)^n ............................... (1)
Where;
r = interest rate = 15%
n = a particular year from 1 to 5.
Break even time can be described as the amount of time that is needed for both the discounted cash flows and the initial cost of a project to be equal.
The break-even time is calculated using the following formula:
Break-even time = X + (Y / Z) .................... (2)
X = Last year with a negative cumulative cash flow = 3
Y = Absolute value of cumulative cash flow at the end of period X = $8,821.32
Z = Present value of cash inflow for the period following X = $24,585.39
Break-even time = 3 + ($8,821.32 / $24,585.39) = 3 + 0.36 = 3.36 years
On December 31, 2019, The Bates Company's revenue is $440,000 and expenses total $340,000 before consideration of the following: Accrued wages total $21,000; Accrued revenues total $56,000; Depreciation expense is $27,000; Rental revenue of $7,000 was earned; the rent from a tenant was initially recorded by Bates as unearned rent revenue; The income tax rate is 40% of income before income taxes. What is Bates' net income after consideration of the above information
Answer:
Explanation:
Revenue = $440,000
Expenses = $340000
Accrued wages = $21000
Accrued revenues = $56000
Depreciation exp = $27000
Rental value earned but not recorded = $7000
Income tax rate = 40%
Total revenue = 440000 +56000 + 7000 = $503000
Total expenses = 340000 + 21000 + 27000 = $388000
Income before tax = 503000 - 388000 = $115000
income tax = 115000 x .4 = $46000
Net income = 115000 - 46000 = $69000 .
Easton Company uses the periodic inventory system and had the following inventory & sales activity for the month of May 2019: Date Activity Quantity Unit Price 5/1 Beginning Inventory 100 $10 5/5 Purchase 250 $12 5/15 Purchase 200 $14 5/25 Purchase 250 $16 Sales were 580 units at $20. Using the LIFO method, determine the dollar value of Cost of Goods Sold for the month of May.
Answer:
.$7,280
Explanation:
Date Activity Quantity Unit Price
5/1 Beginning Inventory 100 $10
5/5 Purchase 250 $12
5/15 Purchase 200 $14
5/25 Purchase 250 $16
Sales were 580 units at $20.
Using the FIFO method, cot of goods sold is:
= (100 x $10) + (250 x $12) + (200 x $14) + (30 x $16) = $7,280
when you use the first in, first out (FIFO) method, you calculate cost of good sold using the oldest units in inventory first (not necessarily the oldest physical units but their price).
If the interest rate this year is 8.8% and the interest rate next year will be 10.8%, what is the future value of $1 after 2 years? What is the present value of a payment of $1 to be received in 2 years?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The interest rate this year is 8.8% and the interest rate next year will be 10.8%.
a) To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV1= 1*1.088= 1.088
FV2= 1.088*1.108=$1.206
b) To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula:
PV=FV/(1+i)^n
PV2= 1/1.108= 0.903
PV1= 0.903/1.088= $0.83
he Presley Corporation is about to go public. It currently has aftertax earnings of $7,000,000, and 2,000,000 shares are owned by the present stockholders (the Presley family). The new public issue will represent 500,000 new shares. The new shares will be priced to the public at $25 per share, with a 4 percent spread on the offering price. There will also be $250,000 in out-of-pocket costs to the corporation. a. Compute the net proceeds to the Presley Corporation. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer:
Missing question is "a. Compute the net proceeds to the Presley Corporation. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.) Net proceeds
b. Compute the earnings per share immediately before the stock issue. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Earnings per share
c. Compute the earnings per share immediately after the stock issue. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Earnings per share "
a. Net proceeds = Shares issued * Share price*(1-0.04) - Direct cost
Net proceeds = 500,000 * $25*(1-0.04) - $250,000
Net proceeds = 500,000*$24 - $250,000
Net proceeds = $12,000,000 - $250,000
Net proceeds = $11,750,000
b. EPS = Earnings / Shares
EPS = $7,000,000 / 2,000,000 shares
EPS = $3.50 per share
c. EPS = After tax earnings / Total shares
EPS = $7,000,000 / (2,000,000 + 500,000)
EPS = $7,000,000 / 2,500,000 shares
EPS = $2.80 per shares
Decision on Transfer Pricing Materials used by the Instrument Division of XPort Industries are currently purchased from outside suppliers at a cost of $185 per unit. However, the same materials are available from the Components Division. The Components Division has unused capacity and can produce the materials needed by the Instrument Division at a variable cost of $154 per unit. a. If a transfer price of $168 per unit is established and 33,200 units of materials are transferred, with no reduction in the Components Division's current sales, how much would XPort Industries’ total income from operations increase?
Answer:
$1,029,200
Explanation:
The computation of net income increases is shown below:-
Market purchase cost = 33,200 × $185
= $6,142,000
Component division variable cost = 33,200 × $154
= $5,112,800
Net income increases = $6,142,000 - $5,112,800
= $1,029,200
hence, the net income would be increased by $1,029,000 and the same is to be considered
You and a partner are considering the purchase of a convenience store.? The store has annual sales of $500,000 and is paying annual payroll of $100,000. The cost of goods sold every year is $150,000. The firm has miscellaneous expenses (taxes, insurance, garbage, electricity, natural gas, security, maintenance, property taxes, training, advertising, accounting fees, bank charges, etc.) of roughly $68,000 per year. If depreciation is equal to $15,000 per year and the tax rate is equal to 38% then what is the net income?
Answer:
the net income is $103,540
Explanation:
The computation of the net income is shown below:
= (Annual sales - annual payroll - cost of goods sold - miscellaneous expenses - depreciation expense) × (1 - tax rate)
= ($500,000 - $100,000 - $150,000 - $68,000 - $15,000) × (1 - 38%)
= $103,540
Hence, the net income is $103,540
We simply applied the above formula
For a country A, the GDP growth rate is 8 percent and inflation is 4 percent. If the velocity of money remains constant, what is the change in real money balances
Answer:
The change in the real money balance is 12%
Explanation:
As per gievn data
GDP growth rate = 8%
Inflation = 4%
The real money change is as follow
Equation
Delta M + Delta V = Delta P + Delta Y
Where
Delta M = Real money change = ?
Delta V = Change in velocity = 0
Delta P = Inflation rate = 4%
Delta Y = GDP growth rate = 8%
Placing values in the above equation
Delta M + 0 = 4% + 8%
Delta M = 12%
Hence the money balance will increase by 12%.

Answer:
Direct material price variance= $13,800 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Simpleton, Inc. budgeted a material cost of $10 per lb.
Actual:
2,300 lbs at $16 per lb.
To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (10 - 16)*2,300
Direct material price variance= $13,800 unfavorable

The Jackson-Timberlake Wardrobe Co. just paid a dividend of $1.55 per share on its stock. The dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 6 percent per year indefinitely. Investors require a return of 14 percent on the company's stock. a. What is the current stock price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What will the stock price be in 3 years? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) c. What will the stock price be in 7 years? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
(A) 20.54
(B) 24.46
(C) 30.88
Explanation:
(A) The current stock price can be calculated as follows
Po= 1.55(1+6/100)/(14/100-6/100)
= 1.55(1+0.06)/(0.14-0.06)
= 1.55(1.06)/0.08
=1.643/0.08
= 20.54
(B) The stock price after 3 years can be calculated as follows
Po = 1.55(1+6/100)^4/(14/100-6/100)
= 1.55(1+0.06)^4/(0.14-0.06)
= 1.55(1.06)^4/0.08
= 1.55(1.2624)/0.08
= 1.9567/0.08
= 24.46
(C) The stock price after 7 years can be calculated as follows
Po= 1.55(1+6/100)^8/(14/100-6/100)
= 1.55(1+0.06)^8/(0.14-0.06)
= 1.55(1.06)^8/(0.08)
= 1.55(1.5938)/0.08
= 2.470/0.08
= 30.88

"The fund is earning a low, but safe, 3% per year. The withdrawals will take place annually starting today. How soon will the fund be exhausted if Debbie withdraws $40,000 each year?"
Answer:
The question is missing the amount that Debbie's fund has, so I looked for similar questions and the number I found was $368,882.
we can use the present value of an annuity due formula to determine how long it will take Debbie to empty her account.
present value of annuity due = (payment / i) x {1 - [1 / (1 + i)ⁿ]} x (1 + i)
368,882 = (40,000 / 0.03) x {1 - [1 / (1 + 0.03)ⁿ]} x (1 + 0.03)
368,882 = 1,333,333.33 x 1.03 x {1 - [1 / (1 + 0.03)ⁿ]}
368,882 = 1,373,333.33 x {1 - [1 / (1 + 0.03)ⁿ]}
1 - [1 / (1.03)ⁿ] = 368,882 / 1,373,333.33 = 0.268603398
1 - 0.268603398 = [1 / (1.03)ⁿ]
0.731396601 = 1 / (1.03)ⁿ
1.03ⁿ = 1 / 0.731396601 = 1.367247261
n = log 1.367247261 / log 1.03 = 0.135847062 / 0.012837224 = 10.58 years
Debbie will exhaust the fund in 10.58 years. That means that Debbie will be able to withdraw $40,000 for 10 years, and then the last withdrawal will be lower.

Ivanhoe Construction Company had a contract starting April 2021, to construct a $23000000 building that is expected to be completed in September 2023, at an estimated cost of $21000000. At the end of 2021, the costs to date were $7560000 and the estimated total costs to complete had not changed. The progress billings during 2021 were $3800000 and the cash collected during 2021 was 3100000. Ivanhoe uses the percentage-of-completion method. At December 31, 2021 Ivanhoe would report Construction in Process in the amount of:
Answer:
$8280000
Explanation:
From the given information;
The percentage of the completion method used in construction is equal to the contract price multiplied by the percentage of estimated total cost incurred to date i.e.
Cumulative cost to date $7560000
Estimated total cost $21000000
Percentage of completion 36% ( $7560000/ $21000000 )
The contract price for this project is $23000000
Therefore,
At December 31, 2021 Ivanhole would report construction in process in the amount of: $23000000 × 36%
= $8280000
Tim is the vice president of western operations for Maroon Oil Company and is stationed in San Francisco. He is required to live in an employer-owned home, which is three blocks from his company office. The company-provided home is equipped with high-speed Internet access and several telephone lines. Tim receives telephone calls and e-mails that require immediate attention any time of day or night because the company's business is spread all over the world. A full-time administrative assistant resides in the house to assist Tim with the urgent business matters. Tim often uses the home for entertaining customers, suppliers, and employees. The fair market value of comparable housing is $9,000 per month. Tim is also provided with free parking at his company's office. The value of the parking is $350 per month.
The amount associated with the free parking that Tim must include in his gross income per month is?
Answer:
$80 (in 2020)
Explanation:
I will assume that this question takes place during the current year (2020). An employee is required to include as income all transportation benefits that exceed $270 per month. In this case, free parking is considered a transportation benefit and Tim must report $350 - $270 = $80 as taxable benefits. The exclusion amount varies depending on the year, e.g. it was $265 in 2019.
The amount that should be included in the gross income per month should be $80.
Calculation of the amount:The employee should needed to involved the income in terms of transportation benefits that should be more than $270 per month. Since the free parking should be considered as the transportation benefit
So here the amount associated should be
= $350 - $270
= $80
hence, The amount that should be included in the gross income per month should be $80.

Revenues and gains included in arriving at net income that do not provide cash.
Answer:
Non-cash revenues.
Explanation:
Non-cash revenues can be defined as revenues and gains included in arriving at net income that do not provide cash.
Basically, on the statement of cash-flow, non-cash revenues are considered not to be a real cash-flow because they don't add to the total inflow of cash.
Some examples of noncash revenues are amortization of premium relating to bonds payable, cash flow from investments that are carried under the equity method, accrued revenues, and gains from disposals of non-current assets.

Which of the following best describes why German firms were nationalized after World War II?
A. Extract money.
B. Job preservation.
C. Ideology.
D. Happenstance.
Answer:
D. Happenstance.
Explanation:
The fact that German firms were nationalized has often been regarded as mere happenstance; meaning it just occurred based on the circumstances they were in immediately after World War II.
It thus encompasses several factors such as the cost of operations, changes in government, etc, not just one factor.
German firms were nationalized after World War II because of Happenstance.
World War II:The fact that German companies were nationalized has frequently been dismissed as a coincidence, implying that it happened simply because of the circumstances in which they found themselves following World War II.
It thus incorporates multiple aspects, not just one, such as operational costs, government changes, and so on.

Explain the risks associated with leveling resources, compressing or crashing projects, and imposed durations or "catch-up" as the project is being implemented. Why is it critical to develop a time-phased baseline? Subscribe to unlock
Answer:
Explain the risks associated with leveling resources, compressing or crashing projects, and imposed durations or "catch-up" as the project is being implemented.
a project manager will try to level resources in order to even out the use of resources throughout the whole project, but that can result in a deficit of resources during critical times. E.g. trying to use 25% of resources during each year for a project that lasts 4 years. But some activities require a lot o resources but last a short time, while other activities might last longer and consume fewer resources. a project manager will try to compress a project's schedule because he/she wants to finish early, ideally without affecting the project's scope. The problem with compressing a project is that you might have to skip or eliminate certain activities in order to so so. E.g. a lot of pharmaceutical companies are trying to develop a vaccine that ends the current health crisis, and their rush are not following the appropriate steps. crashing activities refers to trying to finish some critical activity early by assigning more resources to it. The risks of crashing critical activities is that they might not be well done, or it might be too expensive.Why is it critical to develop a time-phased baseline?
Without a well done time-phased baseline, it is very difficult to prepare a project schedule, or at least one that actually works. It is also important because it is very useful for cost control, and projects can easily go out of control and cost more than their budget.
At the end of the current year, Leer Company reported total liabilities of $319,000 and total equity of $119,000. The company's debt ratio on the last year-end was:___________.
a. 72.8%.
b. 268%.
c. 3-68%.
d. 37.3%.
e. $438,000
Answer:
72.8%
Explanation:
The first step is to calculate the total assets
Total assets= Total liabilities + total equity
= $319,000 + $119,000
= $438,000
Therefore the debt ratio can be calculated as follows
= Total liabilities/total assets
= $319,000/$438,000
= 0.728×100
= 72.8%
You have just been hired as a financial analyst for Barrington Industries. Unfortunately, company headquarters (where all of the firm's records are kept) has been destroyed by fire. So, your first job will be to recreate the firm's cash flow statement for the year just ended. The firm had $100,000 in the bank at the end of the prior year, and its working capital accounts except cash remained constant during the year.

manufactures an optical switch that it uses in its final product. TechSystems incurred the following manufacturing costs when it produced 73,000 units last year: LOADING...(Click the icon to view the manufacturing costs.) Another company has offered to sell TechSystems the switch for $13.00 per unit. If TechSystems buys the switch from the outside supplier, none of the fixed costs are avoidable. The company prepared an outsourcing decision analysis to show the cost per unit of making the switches versus the cost per unit of buying (outsourcing) the switches. LOADING...(Click the icon to view the outsourcing decision analysis.) TechSystems needs 82,000 optical switches next year (assume same relevant range). By outsourcing them, TechSystems can use its idle facilities to manufacture another product that will contribute $220,000 to operating income, but none of the fixed costs will be avoidable. Should TechSystems make or buy the switches? Show your analysis. Complete the Best Use of Facilities Analysis. (Enter a "0" for any zero amounts.) TechSystems Best Use of Facilities Analysis Buy and Use Facilities for Other Make Product Expected sales price of the other product × × Total variable cost of obtaining the optical switches Expected net cost of obtaining the optical switches
Answer:
Since the question is missing most of its numbers, I looked for similar question.
variable cost per unit = $1,015,000 / 73,000 = $13.9041
total fixed costs = $490,000
since fixed costs are not avoidable, but can be used to generate $220,000 in revenues, the differential analysis is the following:
Make Buy Net income increase
(decrease)
variable costs $1,140,136.20 $0 $1,140,136.20
fixed overhead $490,000 $270,000 $220,000
purchase price $0 $1,066,000 ($1,066,000)
total $1,630,136.20 $1,336,000 $294,136.20
TechSystems should outsource the production since it will be able to increase its operating profits by $294,136.20.
