He expects to work until 68, and live until 90. He anticipates an 8% return on his investments. Additionally, Social Security Administration has notified him that his annual retirement benefit, in today s dollars will be $26,000. Using the purchasing power preservation model, calculate how much capital Steven needs, in order to retire at 68. "

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Savings Per Month- 80% of $80,000 = $ 64,000.

 Future value for the Yearly saving of $64,000 and Social security of $26,000 for balance years of 25 (68-43)

Future Value= Present value (1+rate of interest)n

Future Value =64,000(1+0.03)∧25= 134,001.7875

Future value= $26,000(1+0.03)∧25- 54,438.22617

Difference= 1,340,001.7875 - 54,438.22617 =  $79,563.56133

present value of a number of cash flows for 22 years after his retirement i.e. 90-68.. The Net rate is 5% i.e. (8%-5%)

Present Value= C   1−(1+r)−n                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             r

                 =$79,563.56   (1−(1+.05)−22                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              0.05

Present value =$1,047,295.35

So he needs capital of $ 1,047,295.35 in order to retire at 68

The estimated inventory at June 30, 2021, would be:

Answers

Answer:

$70,765

Explanation:

                                             cost                         retail

beginning inventory       $64,500                  $123,000        52.44%

net purchases               $315,000                  $483,000        65.22%

sales during the first six months totaled $493,000.

we must first determine the cost of goods sold:

COGS = [(cost beginning inventory + cost net purchases) / (retail beginning inventory + retail net purchases)] x total sales = [($64,500 + $315,000) / ($123,000 + $483,000)] x $493,000 = ($379,500 / $606,000) x $493,000 = $308,735

ending inventory = cost beginning inventory + cost net purchases - COGS = $64,500 + $315,000 - $308,735 = $70,765

None of the above

Answers

Answer:

c. $385,958.90

Explanation:

Step 1 Determine the Total Cost Incurred for Both materials and Conversion

Raw Materials

Opening Work In Process                  $200,000

Add Cost Added during the year    $2,000,000

Total                                                   $2,200,000

Conversion

Opening Work In Process                  $200,000

Add Cost Added during the year    $2,500,000

Total                                                   $2,700,000

Step 2 Determine the total equivalent units for materials and conversion

Materials

Closing work in process 100 × 100%                         = 100

Completed and Transferred (600+200-100)×100% =700

Total                                                                            =800

Conversion

Closing work in process 100 × 30%                          =  30

Completed and Transferred (600+200-100)×100% =700

Total                                                                            =730

Step 3 Determine equivalent cost per unit of materials and conversion costs

Materials = $2,200,000/800 = $2,750

Conversion = $2,700,000/730 = $3,699

Step 4 Determine the cost assigned to Ending WIP

Materials  ($2,750×100)           = $275,000

Conversion Cost ($3,699×30) = $110,970

Total                                           =$385970

Milo Co. had 800,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, issued 126,000 shares on May 1, purchased 63,000 shares of treasury stock on September 1, and issued 54,000 shares on November 1. The weighted average shares outstanding for the year isA. 851,000B. 872,000C. 893,000D. 914,000

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 872,000

Explanation:

The shares are bought on different dates, so we need to factor this in.

From January 1 to December 31:

800,000 shares(A full year)

From May 1 to December 31:

8/12 x 126,000 shares

=84,000 shares

From September 1 to December 31:

4/12 x 63,000 shares

= 21,000 shares

And from November to December 31;

2/12 x 54,000 shares

9,000 shares.

Therefore, the weighted average shares outstanding for the year is:

800,000 + 84,000 - 21,000 + 9,000 shares

= 872,000

The reason why 21,000 shares was substracted from the rest was because the 63,000 shares was a treasury stock i.e shares buy back and treasury stock reduces number of outstanding shares

Final answer:

To calculate the weighted average shares outstanding for the year for Milo Co., consider the shares issued and repurchased at different times throughout the year.

Explanation:

Milo Co. had 800,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, issued 126,000 shares on May 1, purchased 63,000 shares of treasury stock on September 1, and issued 54,000 shares on November 1. To calculate the weighted average shares outstanding for the year, you have to take into account the time period each set of shares was outstanding.

The weighted average shares outstanding can be calculated as: [800,000 shares * 12 months + 926,000 shares * 8 months + 863,000 shares * 4 months + 917,000 shares * 1 month] / 12 months = 872,000 shares.

A) She looks at her watch.B) She checks her phone for messages.C) She asks, "How much do I need to put down now to reserve the date?"D) She asks, "Why don't you offer pre-set desserts?"E) She says, "The country club offers a chocolate fountain at no extra cost."

Answers

Answer:

C) She asks, "How much do I need to put down now to reserve the date?"

Explanation:

Anne asking "How much do I need to put down now to reserve the date?" is a signal that she is ready to sign the contract to book the reception.

Obviously, Anne Mason would only ask how much is required to put down to reserve a date at the Brook Park Zoo because they had just finished negotiating all the details of her upcoming wedding reception and she's satisfied with the service.

Final answer:

Anne Mason's clear signal of readiness to finalize the wedding reception contract with Lacey Abrams at Brook Park Zoo is when she asks about the deposit required to reserve the date, showing her intention to secure the venue.

Explanation:

A signal that a client is ready to move forward with a purchase or agreement, such as booking a venue for a wedding reception, typically comes in the form of a clear indicator of commitment or preparation to take the next step. In the context of Lacey Abrams, a sales representative for Brook Park Zoo, handling Anne Mason's wedding reception booking, the signal that Anne is ready to sign the contract would likely be an action or a question that directly relates to the finalization of the agreement. Among the options provided, the clear signal of readiness to close the sale is C) where Anne asks, "How much do I need to put down now to reserve the date?" This shows her intention to secure the venue by understanding the financial commitment required at this stage.

Other options, such as checking the phone or inquiring about offerings like pre-set desserts or what competitors offer, are signals that could indicate hesitancy or a need for further clarification, rather than a readiness to conclude the transaction.

Which of the following could cause an appreciation of the real exchange rate in a small open economy? A decrease in the domestic interest rate. The expiration of an investment tax-credit provision. An increase in government spending. An increase in taxes.

Answers

Answer: An increase in government spending

Explanation:

Currency appreciation is an increase in the worth of one currency against the value of another currency. Due to the appreciation of a currency, imports get cheaper.

In a small open economy, the appreciation of the real exchange rate can be caused by an increase in government spending as this puts pressure on domestic currency to appreciate, which leads to current account deterioration.

The production of rice in the year 2001 was 1000 tones which was 25% of the total food grain production in that year. In the next year if the production of rice decreased by 4% and production of rice as a percentage of total food grain production increased by 5 percentage points, what is the total food grain production in 2002?

a) increase the number of B consumed.
b) increase the number of A consumed.
c) increase the number of A and B consumed.
d) do nothing; she cannot increase utility with the same amount of money.

Answers

Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

A rule for maximizing utility  is that if an individual wants to maximize total utility, for every dollar that is spent, he/she should spend it on the commodity that yields the greatest marginal utility per dollar of expenditure.

In the scenario presented above, we can see that the marginal utilities per dollar for both commodities that Jane consumes are equal, therefore she can neither increase or decrease spending on any particular commodity in order to increase or decrease its marginal utility, this is because she gets an equal amount of marginal utility from both commodities.

Therefore, with the same amount of money, Jane cannot increase utility.

B) recognized in the current period under the percentage-of-completion method, but the completed-contract

C) recognized in the current period under the completed-contract method, but the percentage-of-
completion method defers the loss until the contract is completed.
D) deferred and recognized when the contract is completed, regardless of whether the percentage-of-
completion or completed-contract method is employed.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is A.) Recognized in the current period, regardless of whether the percentage-of-completion or completed contract method is employed.

Explanation:

The long -run cost function can be estimated using either time-series cost-output data collected on a plant (or firm) whose size has been variable over time, or cross-sectional cost-output dasta collected on a sample of plants,(firms) of different sizes at a particular point on time.

Answer:

The correct answer here is A)

Here is why.

Explanation:

If it is not recognized in the current period, it may be misleading. A forecast is indicative that a budget has already taken place and that resources have been released.

So even though cost estimates at the end of the incumbent period may indicate that a loss will result once the contract is completed, under the Zero-Profit, Completed- contract and percentage-of-completion methods, the entire loss that is expected on the contract must be recognized in the current period.

Ormand Company uses variable costing for internal decision-making purposes and has the following information for June: Sales $900,000 Variable cost of goods sold 440,000 Fixed manufacturing costs 160,000 Variable selling and administrative expenses 100,000 Fixed selling and administrative expenses 70,000 Determine the income from operations for June.

Answers

Answer:

$130000

Explanation:

Given: Sales revenue= $900000.

          Variable cost of goods sold= $440000.

          Fixed manufacturing cost= $160000

          Variable selling and administration expense= $100000.

          Fixed selling and administrative expense= $70000.

Now, finding the income from operation for June.

Formula; Income from operation= [tex]Revenue- cost\ of\ goods\ sold- administrative\ expense[/tex]

⇒ Income from operation=  [tex]\$ 900000- \$ 440000-\$ 160000- (\$ 100000+\$ 70000)[/tex]

⇒ Income from operation= [tex]\$ 900000- \$ 600000- \$ 170000[/tex]

⇒ Income from operation= [tex]\$ 900000 - \$ 770000[/tex]

∴ Income from operation= [tex]\$ 130000[/tex]

Hence, $130000 is the income from operation for June.

Lucas is planning to buy a house owned by Janet. He gives her an initial amount of $10,000 to hold the offer open for a 45-day period. Janet will deduct the $10,000 from the purchase price if Lucas purchases the property within those 45 days. If he does not, Janet can keep the $10,000 and offer the house to another party. Which of the following contracts does this scenario best illustrate?
A. Option contract
B. Void contract
C. Implied contract
D. Executed contract

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Option contract.

Explanation:

An option contract gives a buyer the right but not the obligation to purchase an asset at a certain price -usually fixed- and date. The term is mostly used while talking about stocks. A buyer can profit both from the upward and downward movements of the stock price. If the price goes up, the investor could bet on call options while the decreasing price could allow investors to profit from put options.

Lucas's case reflects an option contract because he is planning to purchase a house from Janet at a price and date in the future but he agreed in not having the obligation to buy the house when that date arrives.

In 2019, Jasmine and Thomas, a married couple, had taxable income of $150,000. If they were to file separate tax returns, Jasmine would have reported taxable income of $140,000 and Thomas would have reported taxable income of $10,000. Use Tax Rate

The subject involves determining marginal tax rates for a married couple based on different filing statuses. A couple with a joint income of $150,000 may encounter different tax rates if they file separately rather than jointly, owing to the progressive tax system in the U.S. Marginal tax rates vary depending on the amount of income and filing status.

The question revolves around understanding the marginal tax rates and how they differ when a married couple files jointly versus separate tax returns. Marginal tax rates essentially describe the percentage of tax applied to your income for each tax bracket in which you qualify. For a married couple with a combined income of $150,000, their marginal tax rate would be determined by the tax brackets set by the IRS for the respective tax year.

The scenario provided splits the combined income into $140,000 for Jasmine and $10,000 for Thomas if they were to file separately. This could result in different marginal tax rates for each individual due to the progressive nature of the U.S tax system. The tax rate applied to each individual's income would typically be lower for Thomas since he falls within a lower income bracket, whereas Jasmine's income puts her in a higher tax bracket, hence a higher marginal tax rate. However, in practice, married couples often benefit from a lower tax rate on their combined income when filing jointly, compared to what they would owe in total if they filed separately, due to the way tax brackets are structured for married filing jointly status.

The local printing company purchases a new copy machine that reduces the cost of making a color copy by ten cents a copy. It normally makes 50,000 color copies a year and is in the 28 percent income tax bracket. The annual taxes on this purchase will be ___________.A) $3,600. B) $5,000. C) $6,400. D) $1,400.

Answers

Answer:

D. $1400

Explanation:

Given that

Tax rate = 28%

New purchase reduces cost by 10 cents

Copier makes $50000

Thus,

Annual taxes on purchase = (50000/10) × 28%

= 5000 × 28%

= 5000 × 0.28

= $1400

Therefore, Annual taxes on purchase is $1400.
