The net income reported on the income statement for the current year was $240,000. Depreciation was $52,000. Accounts receivable and inventories decreased by $5,000 and $15,000, respectively. Prepaid expenses and accounts payable increased, respectively, by $500 and $14,000. How much cash was provided by operating activities?a. $277,500.b. $287,500.c.$295,500.d.$228,500.

Answers

Answer 1

Final answer:

The cash provided by operating activities is calculated by adjusting the net income for changes in working capital and adding back depreciation. The correct calculation provides a result of $325,500, which differs from the options provided in the question.

Explanation:

To calculate the cash provided by operating activities, you need to adjust the net income by changes in working capital and add back non-cash expenses such as depreciation. Here's the calculation:

Start with Net Income: $240,000.Add back Depreciation: $240,000 + $52,000 = $292,000.Adjust for decrease in Accounts Receivable: $292,000 + $5,000 = $297,000.Adjust for decrease in Inventories: $297,000 + $15,000 = $312,000.Adjust for increase in Prepaid Expenses (which uses cash): $312,000 - $500 = $311,500.Adjust for increase in Accounts Payable (which provides cash): $311,500 + $14,000 = $325,500.

Therefore, the cash provided by operating activities is $325,500, which is not listed in the options provided.

Dry cleaning of clothing produces air pollutants. Therefore, in the market for dry cleaning services, the equilibrium price:

A) and output are too low to be optimal.

B) and output are too high to be optimal.

C) is too low to be optimal, and equilibrium quantity is too high.

D) is too high to be optimal, and equilibrium quantity is too low.

E) is optimal, but there is an excess supply.

Answers

Final answer:

The presence of air pollution, an external cost not accounted for in the price of dry-cleaning services, results in an equilibrium price and quantity that are too high to be optimal. Implementing a pollution-control program would likely increase costs and reduce output, moving the market towards a more socially optimal outcome.

Explanation:

When a market neglects external costs, such as pollution, it tends to result in an equilibrium that does not reflect all societal costs. This phenomenon, known as a negative externality, means the market output and price are higher than what would be socially optimal because the external cost of pollution is not included in the supply curve. Therefore, if the dry-cleaning industry's air pollution is unchecked, the equilibrium price and quantity would be too high to be optimal. In response to part 6, the current price and output of dry-cleaning services benefit from ignoring the cost of air pollution, which implies that the industry is producing more than the socially optimal output at a lower price than it should if the costs of pollution were internalized. If a pollution charge is introduced, as discussed in the scenarios provided, it would increase the costs for dry-cleaning firms, which would likely lead to higher prices and reduced output, moving the market toward a more socially optimal level. To address the critics of pollution charges in part 7, while it's true that firms may pass on the extra costs to customers, the overall pollution level could still change. The higher prices may reduce demand for dry-cleaning services, leading to lower overall production and, consequently, less pollution.

Suppose that the economy is at equilibrium at $1,000 billion, and potential output is $1,200 billion. If the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.9, then government spending must increase by $_____ billion to reach potential output.

Answers

Answer:

20

Explanation:

The computation of the increase in the government spending is shown below:

= (Economy is at equilibrium point - potential output) ÷ (Multiplier)

= ($1,000 billion - $1,200 billion) ÷ (10)

= $200 billion ÷ 10

= $20 billion

The multiplier is computed below:

= (1) ÷ (1 - MPC)

= (1) ÷ (1 - 0.9)

= 1 ÷ 0.1

= 10

We simply first apply the multiplier formula, than calculate the government spending increment

An office manager is concerned with declining productivity. Despite the fact that she regularly monitors her clerical staff four times each day—at 9:00 AM, 11:00 AM, 1:00 PM, and again at 3:00 PM—office productivity has declined 30 percent since she assumed the helm one year ago. What would you recommend that the office manager do to improve office productivity in the future?

Answers

Answer:

Absolutely Not, recommend that the office manager invest more time monitoring the productivity of her clerical staff.

Explanation:

As clerical staff know the timings of monitoring. So, at that time they just show her that they are doing their work with dedication. But just after her monitoring, they known that she will not come before 2 hours. So, basically this is the actual problem in this case. Despite the four times monitoring each day, it does not result in higher productivity, instead productivity has declined 30 percent since she assumed the helm one year ago.

The best way to overcome this problem, office manager should not fix their time of monitoring. So that, clerical staff does not know the time when she come for monitoring. This will lead to improvement in the productivity level.

Answer:

A. $2,029.58

Explanation:

The computation of the gross pay for the first half of June is shown below:

= Regional sales × commission percentage + earning × number of months ÷ total number of months in a year

= $103,500 × 0.25% + $42,500  ÷ 12 months × 2 months

A local college is deciding whether to conduct a campus beautification initiative that would involve various projects, such as planting trees and remodeling buildings, to make the campus more aesthetically pleasing.

For the students of the college, the visual appearance of the campus is (non-rival/rival) and (non-excludable/excludable). Thus, the visual appearance would be classified as a public good.

Suppose the college administrators estimate that the beautification initiative will cost $8,160. To decide whether the initiative should be undertaken, administrators conduct a survey of the college's 490 students, asking each of them their willingness-to-pay for the beautification project. The average willingness-to-pay, as revealed by the survey, is $17.

The benefit of the beatification initiative, as suggested by the survey, is $___. Because the estimated benefit is (less/greater) than the cost, the college administrators (should/should not) undertake the beautification initiative.

The calculation of the benefit of the beatification initiative relied on the ability of the administrators to accurately capture the true willingness-to-pay of each student.

Which of the following scenarios would cause the survey used by the college administrators to yield misleading willingness-to-pay data? Check all that apply.

_ Students are surveyed at random, using conventional survey and data-gathering methods.

_ Students believe that if the initiative does not happen, the funds for the initiative will not be spent elsewhere.

Answers

Answer:

Students believe that if the initiative does not happen, the funds for the initiative will not be spent elsewhere.

Explanation:

The visual appearance is both non rival and non excludable I.e. Pure public good

Benefit is 17*490=8.330

Benefit is greater than cost so college administrators should undertake the beautification initiative

Final answer:

The college administrators should undertake the beautification initiative as the estimated benefit is greater than the cost. The survey used may yield misleading data if students are surveyed randomly or if they believe the funds will not be used elsewhere.

Explanation:

The benefit of the beautification initiative, as suggested by the survey, is calculated by multiplying the average willingness-to-pay ($17) by the number of students (490). Therefore, the benefit is $8,330. Since the estimated benefit is greater than the cost ($8,160), the college administrators should undertake the beautification initiative.

The survey used by the college administrators would yield misleading willingness-to-pay data if the students were surveyed at random, using conventional survey and data-gathering methods. This is because random sampling may not accurately capture the true willingness-to-pay of each student. Additionally, if the students believe that if the initiative does not happen, the funds for the initiative will not be spent elsewhere, their willingness to pay may be lower, leading to misleading data.

Answers

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

If there is an increase in the income taxes then as a result there is a leftward shift in the labor supply curve and we know that labor supply curve indicates the the amount of labor hours workers devoted towards the production of the goods. Hence, this will lead to a reduction in the real GDP as there will be less working hours devoted by the workers because of the higher income taxes.

4. College logo T-shirts priced at $15 sell at a rate of 25 per week, but when the bookstore marks them down to $10, it finds that it can sell 50 T-shirts per week. a. What is the price elasticity of demand for the logo t-shirts? b. Indicate if the price elasticity of demand for the logo T-shirt is perfectly elastic, relatively elastic, relatively inelastic, or perfectly inelastic

Answers

Answer: PED = -1.665

The price demand elasticity is relatively elastic because PED is greater than 1..(ignore the minus sign)

Explanation:

Using the formula PED = % change in quantity/ % change in price

PED = ((Q1 - Q0)/(Q1 + Q0))/((P1 -P0)/(P1+P0))...EQU 1 where Q1 = 50 is quantity of product at Price P1 =10 and Q0 = 25 is quantity of product at Price P0 = 15 and PED is price of elasticity

Substituting figures into equ1

PED = ((50 - 25)/(50+25)) /((10 -15)/(10+15))

PED = -1.665

The price elasticity of demand for the logo T-shirts is 3.0, indicating that the demand is relatively elastic.

To find the price elasticity of demand for the college logo T-shirts, we follow these steps:

Identify initial and new prices:

Initial Price (P1) = $15 New Price (P2) = $10

Identify initial and new quantities sold:

Initial Quantity (Q1) = 25 T-shirts New Quantity (Q2) = 50 T-shirts

Calculate the percentage change in price and quantity sold:

Percentage Change in Price = (P2−P1)​ / P1 ×100

(10−15)/ 15 ​×100

−5​/ 15×100= −33.33%

Percentage Change in Quantity = (Q2−Q1)​/ Q1 ×100

(50−25)/ 25 ​×100

25/ 25​×100 =100%

Calculate the price elasticity of demand (Ed):

Price Elasticity of Demand = Ed​ =Percentage Change in PricePercentage Change in Quantity​

−33.33%/ 100%​

This simplifies to Ed​=−3.0

Since we are interested in the absolute value, we consider ∣Ed​∣=3.0.

Interpret the elasticity:

An elasticity of 3.0 indicates that the demand for the college logo T-shirts is quite elastic. This means that a 1% decrease in price results in approximately a 3% increase in the quantity demanded. Based on the value of the elasticity, we categorize it as:Elastic (> 1): The demand is relatively sensitive to price changes.

Marsden Company has three departments occupying the following amount of floor space: Department 1 15,000 sq. ft. Department 2 10,000 sq. ft. Department 3 25,000 sq. ft. How much store rent should be allocated to Department 3 if total rent is equal to $200,000?

Answers

The Marsden Company  has three different departments which acquire different floor spaces. The premises is a rental premise and the rent have to be divided based on the area in square feet.

Given

Total rent is $200,000

Area of D1 is 15,000 sq. ft.

Area of D2 is 10,000 sq. ft.

Area of D3 is 25,000 sq. ft.

We have to find the rent of Department 3 which has the area of 25,000 sq.ft.

Calculations

[tex]\rm Rent\: per\: square\: feet=\dfrac{Total\:rent}{Total\:area} \\\\Rent\: per\: square\: feet= \dfrac{\$200,000}{D1+D2+D3} \\\\Rent\: per\: square\: feet=\dfrac{\$200,000}{50,000 sq.fr.} \\\\Rent\: per\: square\: feet= \$4[/tex]

Area of D3 multiplied by Rent per square feet will give us the rent of D3.

Thus , [tex]25,000 x \$4 = \$100,000[/tex]

Therefore the rent of department 3 of Marsden Company  is $100,000.

Department 3 occupies 50% of the total floor space of Marsden Company. Thus, it should be allocated 50% of the total store rent, which is $100,000 out of the $200,000 total rent.

To determine how much store rent should be allocated to Department 3 when the total rent is $200,000, we use a method based on the proportion of floor space each department occupies. First, let's calculate the total amount of floor space in the company:

Department 1: 15,000 sq. ft.Department 2: 10,000 sq. ft.Department 3: 25,000 sq. ft.

The total floor space is the sum of the space occupied by all departments, which equals 15,000 + 10,000 + 25,000 = 50,000 sq. ft.

Next, we calculate the percentage of the total floor space that Department 3 occupies:

Percentage of space for Department 3 = (Space occupied by Department 3 / Total space) * 100 = (25,000 / 50,000) * 100 = 50%

Now, we allocate the rent based on this percentage:

Allocated rent for Department 3 = Total rent  ×Percentage of space for Department 3 = $200,000 × 50% = $100,000

Therefore, Department 3 should be allocated $100,000 out of the total $200,000 store rent.

Andrews Corp. ended the year carrying $100,338,000 worth of inventory. Had they sold their entire inventory at their current prices, how many more dollars of contribution margin would it have brought to Andrews Corp.?

Answers

Final answer:

To find the additional contribution margin that Andrews Corp. would have earned if they sold their entire inventory, multiply the value of the inventory by the contribution margin percentage.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the additional contribution margin that Andrews Corp. would have earned if they sold their entire inventory, we need to know the contribution margin percentage. The contribution margin is the difference between the selling price and the variable cost per unit. Let's assume that the contribution margin percentage is 40%. To find the additional contribution margin, we multiply the value of the inventory by the contribution margin percentage: $100,338,000 x 0.40 = $40,135,200.

Garcia Company issues 10%, 15-year bonds with a par value of $240,000 and semiannual interest payments. On the issue date, the annual market rate for these bonds is 8%, which implies a selling price of 117¼. Prepare the journal entry for the issuance of these bonds. Assume the bonds are issued for cash on January 1.

Answers

Answer:

The journal entry for the issue of bond for cash is shown below:

Explanation:

January 1

Cash A/c..........................................Dr  $281,400

   Bonds Payable A/c....................................Cr $240,000

    Premium on Bonds Payable A/c...........Cr $41,400

Working Notes:

Cash = Bonds Par Value × Selling Price

= $240,000 × 117.25 %

= $281,400

Premium on bonds payable = Cash - Bonds Payable

= $281,400 - $240,000

= $41,400

Final answer:

The issuance of Garcia Company's 15-year, 10% annual bond, with a $240,000 par value and semiannual payments, sold at 117.25% of par would be recorded in a journal entry with a Debit: Cash = $281,400, Credit: Bonds Payable = $240,000, and Credit: Premium on Bonds Payable = $41,400.

Explanation:

Garcia Company is issuing a 10% per annum, 15-year bond with a par value of $240,000 that pays semi-annually. Hence, the semi-annual bond interest amount will be $240,000 * 10% / 2 = $12,000. The bond was sold at a price of 117.25% of the par value which equals $240,000 * 117.25% = $281,400.

The journal entry for the issuance of these bonds on January 1 would be:

Debit: Cash = $281,400Credit: Bonds Payable = $240,000Credit: Premium on Bonds Payable = $41,400

The premium on bonds payable indicates that the bonds were sold at higher than face value because the stated interest rate (10%) was more attractive to investors than the prevailing market rate (8%).

There's more water than just what you can see. You see water all around you every day as lakes, rivers, ice, rain and snow. There are also vast amounts of water that are unseen---water existing in the ground. And even though groundwater is unseen, it is moving below your feet right now. As part of the water cycle, groundwater is a major contributor to flow in many streams and rivers and has a strong influence on river and wetland habitats for plants and animals. People have been using groundwater for thousands of years and continue to use it today, largely for drinking water and irrigation. Life on Earth depends on groundwater just as it does on surface water. There are rivers flowing below our feet... a myth? Have you ever heard that there are rivers of water flowing underground? Do you think it is true? Actually, it is pretty much a myth. Even though there are some caverns, lava and ice tubes, and horizontal occupies the spaces between rocks and subsurface material. Some rivers , such as the Alapaha River in northern Florida, USA, can disappear underground during low-flow periods. Generally, water underground is more like water in a sponge. It occupies the spaces between soil and rock particles. At a certain depth below the land surface, the spaces between soil and rock particles can be totally filled with water, resulting in an aquifer from which groundwater can be pumped and used by people.
