Answer: c. the value of your time, but not the price you pay for the ticket.
Explanation: The opportunity cost is the alternative cost we waive when we make a decision, including the benefits we could have obtained from choosing the alternative option. Saying this, the opportunity cost would be the time invested in the concert, since we could have gone to do other activities at that time.
You paid $713 last year for a zero-coupon bond that promised to pay you $1,000 at the end of 5 years. Rather than hold it for the remaining four years, you have decided to sell it today. The prevailing effective annual interest rate is 9%. To the nearest dollar, what price do you expect to get for your bond?
Answer:
The bond today will be valued at 708.4252
Explanation:
The price for the bond will be the present value of 1,000 at the current market rate of 9%
We will use the present value of a lump sum to calculate this:
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 1,000 dollars
time 4 years
rate 9% = 9/100 = 0.09
[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.09)^{4} } = PV[/tex]
PV $708.4252
This will be the expected market value for the bond.
Lucas Co. has a job-order cost system. For the month of April, the following debits (credits) appeared in the general ledger account, work-in-process: April 1 Balance $ 24,000 30 Direct materials 80,000 30 Direct labor 60,000 30 Factory overhead 54,000 30 To finished goods (200,000) Lucas applies overhead to production at a predetermined rate of 90% based on direct labor cost. Job No. 100, the only job still in process at the end of April, has been charged with factory overhead of $4,500. The amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 100 was
To find the amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 100, you need to calculate the total direct materials used in April and allocate it proportionally to the jobs. Based on the provided information, the amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 100 is $56,000.
Explanation:In a job-order cost system, direct materials are charged to each specific job. To find the amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 100, we need to calculate the total direct materials used in the month of April and allocate it proportionally to the jobs.
Based on the information provided:
Total direct materials used in April = Direct materials debited in general ledger - Initial balance = $80,000 - $24,000 = $56,000Total direct labor cost in April = $60,000Factory overhead applied to Job No. 100 = $4,500To find the amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 100, we can use the predetermined overhead rate:
Direct materials charged to Job No. 100 = Total direct materials used in April × (Direct labor cost of Job No. 100 / Total direct labor cost in April)
Direct materials charged to Job No. 100 = $56,000 × ($60,000 / $60,000) = $56,000
Final answer:
To calculate the amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 100, we would typically subtract direct labor and factory overhead from the ending work-in-process inventory and to finished goods costs. However, not all necessary figures are provided in the question.
Explanation:
The student is asking how to calculate the amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 100 given factory overhead and a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor cost. Lucas Co. applies overhead to production at a predetermined rate of 90% of direct labor cost. Since Job No. 100 was charged with $4,500 in factory overhead, we find the direct labor cost by dividing the factory overhead by the predetermined rate:
$4,500 ÷ 0.90 = $5,000 (direct labor cost for Job No. 100)
To find the direct materials cost, we use the information on the job-order cost system and the fact that the ending balance of work-in-process inventory will consist of the direct materials, direct labor, and applied overhead for Job no. 100. Given that Job No. 100 is the only job still in process, we need to use the following equation:
Ending Work-in-Process Inventory = Beginning Balance + Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Factory Overhead - To Finished Goods
Since we're solving for Direct Materials in this case and we have all other values, we can rearrange the equation:
Direct Materials charged to Job No. 100 = Ending Work-in-Process Inventory + To Finished Goods - Beginning Balance - Direct Labor (already found) - Factory Overhead (already found)
However, the question does not provide all of the necessary figures to find the ending balance of work-in-process or the total charges to finished goods for the period; additional information is needed to answer this calculation.

In the RST partnership, Ron's capital is $80,000, Stella's is $75,000, and Tiffany's is $50,000. They share income in a 3:2:1 ratio, respectively. Tiffany is retiring from the partnership. Each of the following questions is independent of the others.
Refer to the above information. Tiffany is paid $56,000, and all implied goodwill is recorded. What is the total amount of goodwill recorded?
A. $0
B. $6,000
C. $30,000
D. $36,000
Answer: Option (D) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Ron's capital = $80,000
Stella's = $75,000
Tiffany's = $50,000
Income sharing ratio = 3:2:1
Tiffany is retiring from the partnership
Amount paid to Tiffany = $56,000
Bonus = Amount paid to Tiffany - Tiffany's capital
= $56,000 - $50,000
= $6,000
Above bonus is 1/6th of goodwill.
Therefore, the total amount of goodwill recorded would be:
Goodwill = [tex]\frac{6,000}{\frac{1}{6} }[/tex]
= $36,000

All of the following are methods that aid management in analyzing the expected results of capital budgeting decisions EXCEPT:
a. accrual accounting rate-of-return method
b. discounted cash-flow method
c. future-value cash-flow method
d. payback method
Answer: Option A
Explanation: Capital budgeting is the process by which an analyst using different tools such as discounted cash flow, future cash flow and payback period tries to evaluate the prospective long term investments of an organisation.
Accrual accounting method is an accounting convention and not a capital budgeting tool. It states that every transaction of the entity must be recorded on accrual basis.
Thus from the above we can conclude that the correct option is A.
The future-value cash-flow method is not typically used in analyzing the expected results of capital budgeting decisions. Instead, the accrual accounting rate of return, discounted cash flow, and payback methods are commonly used.
Explanation:All of the options provided are methods that may help management to analyze the expected results of capital budgeting decisions except for the future-value cash-flow method. The accrual accounting rate of return method, the discounted cash-flow method, and the payback method are all widely utilized to analyze capital budgeting. However, the future-value cash-flow method is not typically used in this context as capital budgeting is about evaluating the present value of future cash inflows and outflows relevant to a project, rather than the future value of these cash flows.

What effect will each of the following have on the demand for small automobiles such as the Mini-Cooper and Fiat 500?
a. Small automobiles become more fashionable:
b. The price of large automobiles rises (with the price of small autos remaining the same):
c. Income declines and small autos are an inferior good:
d. Consumers anticipate that the price of small autos will greatly come down in the near future:
e. The price of gasoline substantially drops:
Answer:
a. Demand will increase.
b. Demand will increase.
c. Demand will increase.
d. Demand will decline.
e. Demand will increase.
Explanation:
a. If small automobiles become more fashionable, people will prefer them more. This will lead to an increase in demand for autos.
b. If there is an increase in the price of large automobiles and the price of the small automobiles remain the same, people will prefer the cheaper substitutes. This will cause the demand for small automobiles to increase.
c. Inferior goods have a negative income effect. SO, when income declines the demand for small autos will increase and vice versa.
d. If consumers expect the price of small autos to fall in the near future, they will hold their money to buy autos when their price fall. This will cause the current demand to fall.
e. When the price of gasoline drops it will become cheaper to use autos. This will lead to an increase in demand for autos.
Answer:
(a) This will lead to an increase the demand for small automobiles such as mini-cooper and fiat 500.
(b) An increase in the price of its related good, will lead to an increase the demand for small automobile.
(c) There is an inverse relationship between the income of an individual and the demand for an inferior good. So, if the income of an individual declines as a result the demand for small autos increases.
(d) This will reduces the demand for small automobiles as future prices of small autos are expected to be fall.
(e) This is ambiguous. We know that autos and gasoline are complimentary goods, so if there is a decrease in the price of gasoline then this will result in rising demand for all the cars.
You have 25 years left until retirement and want to retire with $1.1 million. Your salary is paid annually, and you will receive $61,000 at the end of the current year. Your salary will increase at 4 percent per year, and you can earn a return of 10 percent on the money you invest. If you save a constant percentage of your salary, what percentage of your salary must you save each year?
Answer:
percentage of your salary save each year is 13.24%
Explanation:
given data
time period t = 25 year
amount = $1.1 million
salary = $61000
increase r1 = 4 percent per year = 0.04
return r2 = 10 percent = 0.1
to find out
what percentage of your salary must you save each year
solution
we consider here annual saving = A
so amount formula is
amount = A × [tex]\frac{(1+r1)^t -(1+r2)^t}{r1-r2}[/tex]
here A is annual saving and r1 is increase rate and r2 is return rate
1100000 = A × [tex]\frac{1.1^{25} - 1.04^{25}}{0.1-0.04}[/tex]
A = $8079.45
so
proportion of salary is [tex]\frac{8079.45}{61000}[/tex]
proportion of salary = 13.24%
so percentage of your salary save each year is 13.24%
Suppose that France and Sweden both produce oil and shoes. France's opportunity cost of producing pair of shoes is 4 barrels of oil, while Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a Pair of shoes is 8 barrels of oil. By comparing the opportunity cost of producing shoes in the two countries, you can tell that has a comparative advantage in the production of shoes and has a comparative advantage in the production of oil. Suppose that France and Sweden consider trading shoes and oil with each other. France can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than of oil for each pair of shoes it exports to Sweden. Similarly, Sweden can gain from trade as long as it receives more than of shoes for each barrel of oil it exports to France. Based on your answer to the last question, which of the following terms of trade (that is, price of shoes in terms of oil) would allow both Sweden and France to gain from trade? Check all that apply. 3 barrels of oil per pair of shoes 1 barrel of oil per pair of shoes 5 barrels of oil per pair of shoes 9 barrels of oil per pair of shoes
Explanation:
France's opportunity cost of producing a pair of shoes is
= 4 barrels of oil
Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pair of shoes is
= 8 barrels of oil
France's opportunity cost of producing a barrel of oil is
= [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
= 0.25 pairs of shoes
Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a barrel of oil is
= [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
= 0.125 pairs of shoes
A country is considered to be having a comparative advantage in producing a good if it can produce it at a lower opportunity cost as compared to the other country.
Here, France has a lower opportunity cost of producing shoes. So we can say that it has a comparative advantage in making shoes.
Sweden has a lower opportunity cost in producing oil so it has a comparative advantage in making oil.
France can gain from trade if it gets more than 4 barrels of oil for a pair of shoes. While Sweden can gain from trade if it gets more than 0.125 pairs of shoes for a barrel of oil.
The price for trade to happen should be 5 barrels of oil per pair of shoes as France want more than 4 barrels of oil which is its opportunity cost.
9 barrels of shoes is more than Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pair of shoes, so Sweden will not be willing to pay it.
Your wealthy uncle established a $2,200 bank account for you when you were born. For the first 8 years of your life, the interest rate earned on the account was 6%. Since then, rates have been only 4%. Now you are 21 years old and ready to cash in. How much is in your account? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
$5.838,52
Explanation:
First of all, you have to calculate the future value of your money with a compound interest rate, but initially you have to calculate the first 8 years with the interest rate of 6% so you have to do the next operation:
Future Value= Present Value *(( 1+ interest rate)^(n))
where n represents the number of years
Future Value= 2.200* (( 1+ 6%)^(8))
Future Value 8 year = $3.506,47
Now that you have that value you need to calculate the money generated in the next 13 years with the same formula but with the new amount of money
Future value 21 year= $3.506,47 *(( 1+4%)^(13))
Future value 21 year= $5.838,52
Finally, you can ask to the bank the $5.838,52 cash
The amount in your account at age 21 is $5,841.22. This includes the interest accrued over both periods.
Step 1
To determine the amount in the bank account at age 21, we need to calculate the compound interest in two phases: from birth to age 8 (at 6%) and from age 8 to age 21 (at 4%).
Phase 1: From Birth to Age 8 (6% Interest)
The formula for compound interest is:
[tex]\[ A = P \left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \][/tex]
where:
- A = the future value of the investment/loan, including interest
- P = the principal investment amount ($2,200)
- r = the annual interest rate (6% or 0.06)
- n = the number of times that interest is compounded per year (assumed to be 1 for simplicity)
- t = the number of years the money is invested (8 years)
First, calculate the amount after 8 years:
[tex]\[ A_1 = 2200 \left(1 + 0.06\right)^8 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ A_1 = 2200 \left(1.06\right)^8 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ A_1 = 2200 \times 1.593848 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ A_1 = 3506.47 \][/tex]
Step 2
Phase 2: From Age 8 to Age 21 (4% Interest)
Now we use the amount from Phase 1 as the principal for the next period.
- [tex]\( P = 3506.47 \)[/tex]
- [tex]\( r = 0.04 \)[/tex]
- [tex]\( t = 21 - 8 = 13 \)[/tex]
Calculate the amount after the next 13 years:
[tex]\[ A_2 = 3506.47 \left(1 + 0.04\right)^{13} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ A_2 = 3506.47 \left(1.04\right)^{13} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ A_2 = 3506.47 \times 1.665318 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ A_2 = 5841.22 \][/tex]
We calculate the future value of the initial deposit over the first 8 years at a 6% interest rate, then use the resulting amount as the principal for the remaining 13 years at a 4% interest rate. The compound interest formula is applied in both phases to determine the final amount.

Tim mows neighborhood lawns for extra money. Suppose that he would be willing to mow one lawn for $10, a second lawn for $15, and a third lawn for $24. Also suppose that three neighbors are interested in having their lawns mowed. Mrs. Jones would be willing to pay $31 to have her lawn mowed, Mr. Wilson would be willing to pay $30, and Ms. Smith would be willing to pay $24. If Tim offers to mow lawns for $24 each, what will be his producer surplus? $ nothing. (Enter a numeric response using an integer.)
Answer:
The producer surplus is $23
Explanation:
Producer surplus: The producer surplus show a difference between the producer willing to supply and the received price
In mathematically,
Producer surplus = (willing to supply - received price by the consumer)
So,
The producer surplus would equal to
= ($24 - $10) + ($24 - $15) + ($24 - $24)
= 14$ + $9 + $0
= $23

Ending work in process inventory 36,300
Direct materials 164,000
Direct labor 102,000
Total factory overhead 80,100
Stellar Corporation's Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year is:
(A) $346,100
(B) $347,500
(C) $381,000
(D) $309,800
Final answer:
To find the Cost of Goods Manufactured, we add Direct Materials, Direct Labor, Total Factory Overhead, and the beginning work in process inventory, then subtract the ending work in process inventory. The calculation yields $344,700, which does not match any of the provided answers. It is possible there is a typo in the options or an error in the question's calculations.
Explanation:
To calculate Stellar Corporation's Cost of Goods Manufactured (COGM), we will add up all manufacturing costs and then adjust for the change in work in process inventory:
Begin with the total of Direct Materials, Direct Labor, and Total Factory Overhead.
Add the beginning work in process inventory.
Subtract the ending work in process inventory to find the COGM.
Thus, the calculation is:
Direct Materials ($164,000) + Direct Labor ($102,000) + Total Factory Overhead ($80,100) + Beginning work in process inventory ($34,900) - Ending work in process inventory ($36,300) = COGM
$164,000 + $102,000 + $80,100 + $34,900 - $36,300 = $344,700
Therefore, none of the options provided (A) $346,100, (B) $347,500, (C) $381,000, (D) $309,800 precisely match the calculated COGM of $344,700. There might be a typo in the options or a mistake in the calculations within the question. It is important to double-check the calculations and the given answer choices.

The consumer surplus is just the difference between the price payed and the price willed to pay by the consumer, in this case the price payed was $4.25 but Michelle was willing to pay up to $7.75 so we just substract this numbers
7.75 - 4.25 = 3.5
Same for the producer surplus which is the difference between the price the consumer pay and the price that the producer was willing to accept.
4.25 - 0.75 = 3.5
Michelle's consumer surplus is $3.50 and Paul's Cafe and Bakery's producer surplus is also $3.50.
Explanation:In the context of this question, the consumer surplus refers to the difference between the maximum price a consumer is willing to pay and the actual price paid. Similarly, the producer surplus is the difference between the lowest price at which a producer is willing to sell a product and the actual price received.
Therefore, in Michelle's case:
(a) Consumer Surplus = Willingness to pay - Actual price = $7.75 - $4.25 = $3.50(b) For Paul's Cafe and Bakery, Producer Surplus = Actual price - Cost of production = $4.25 - $0.75 = $3.50Learn more about Surplus here:https://brainly.com/question/35248992

On March 1, 2015, the board of directors declared a 15% stock dividend, and accordingly 1,500 additional shares were issued. On March 1, 2015, the fair value of the stock was $6 per share. For the two months ended February 28, 2015, Gunkel sustained a net loss of $15,000.
What amount should Gunkel report as retained earnings as of March 1, 2015?
Answer:
The ending balance of the retained earning is $71,000
Explanation:
For computing the ending balance of the retained earning account, we need to apply the equation which is presented below:
Ending retained earning balance = Beginning retained earning balance - net loss - dividend declared
= $95,000 - $15,000 - (1,500 shares × $6 per share)
= $95,000 - $15,000 - $9,000
= $71,000
The 15% dividend represents additional shares issued

Kangaroo Company had the following amounts on its balance sheet as of December 31, 2018: Inventory $325,000 Notes Payable 100,000 Cash 150,000 Common Stock 750,000 Net Property, Plant, & Equipment 600,000 Accounts Receivable 30,000 Accounts Payable 45,000 Retained Earnings ? What is the balance of retained earnings? 210,000 180,000 310,000 750,000
Answer:
The balance of retained earning is $210,000
Explanation:
In this question, we have to apply the accounting equation which is shown below:
Total assets = Total liabilities + shareholder's equity
where,
Total assets = Inventory + Cash + Net Property, Plant, & Equipment + Accounts Receivable
= $325,000 + $150,000 + $600,000 + $30,000
= $1,105,000
Total liabilities = Notes payable + account payable
= $100,000 + $45,000
= $145,000
And, the shareholder equity = Common stock + retained earnings
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the answer would be equal to
$1,105,000 = $145,000 + $750,000 + retained earnings
$1,105,000 = $895,000 + retained earnings
So, retained earnings = $210,000
The balance of retained earnings can be calculated using the formula: Retained Earnings = Beginning Retained Earnings + Net Income - Dividends. However, without information on net income or dividends, the precise balance cannot be determined.
Explanation:The balance of retained earnings can be calculated by adding the net income or profit for the year to the beginning balance of retained earnings and then subtracting any dividends paid. In this case, we don't have information on net income or dividends, but we can calculate retained earnings by using the formula:
Retained Earnings = Beginning Retained Earnings + Net Income - Dividends
Since we don't have the net income or dividends, we can't calculate the precise balance of retained earnings.
Which of the following is true about finding the present value of cash flows? Finding the present value of cash flows tells you what a cash flow will be worth in future years at a specified rate of return. Finding the present value of cash flows tells you how much you need to invest today so that it grows to a given future amount at a specified rate of return.
Answer: The statement 2, "Finding the present value of cash flows tells you how much you need to invest today so that it grows to a given future amount at a specified rate of return." Is TRUE.
Explanation: "Finding the FUTURE VALUE of cash flows tells you what a cash flow will be worth in future years at a specified rate of return." is the definition for FUTURE VALUE.
Finding the present value of cash flows tells you how much you need to invest today so that it grows to a given future amount at a specified rate of return.
Understanding the present value (PV) of cash flows is essential in financial planning and investment analysis.
The present value calculation allows investors to determine the current worth of a future sum of money, factoring in a specific rate of return or discount rate. This is critical because money has a time value, meaning a certain amount today is worth more than the same amount in the future due to its potential earning capacity.Here's a detailed breakdown:
Concept: Present value helps in determining how much to invest today to reach a desired future value. Application: It is used in various fields like finance, real estate, and retirement planning to make informed investment decisions. Importance: It accounts for the time value of money, helping investors understand the worth of future cash flows in today's terms.For instance, if you want $1,000 in 5 years and the annual interest rate is 5%, you would need to invest approximately $783.53 today, calculated using the PV formula.
In a free market, if the price of a good is above the equilibrium price, then;
A. suppliers, dissatisfied with growing inventories, will raise the price.
B. demanders, wanting to ensure they acquire the good, will bid the price lower.
C. government needs to set a lower price.
D. suppliers, dissatisfied with growing inventories, will lower the price.
Answer: (B) demanders, wanting to ensure they acquire the good, will bid the price lower.
Explanation:
In the free market, if the product price are above the equilibrium price then, the demand of the product rise and the demanders ensure that they acquire good quality products in the low price. Then, the quality and quantity both demand increases until the equilibrium are reached.
On the other hand, if the quantity of the product demand is less as compared to the quantity supply then it create shortage of the product.
Therefore, Option (B) is correct.
In a free market, if a good's price is above the equilibrium, suppliers will lower the price due to dissatisfaction with increasing inventories. This occurs because there's a surplus in the market, and the decline in price aims to clear that surplus.
Explanation:In a free market, if the price of a good is above the equilibrium price, then suppliers, dissatisfied with growing inventories, will lower the price. This is because suppliers recognize there's a surplus of goods, with more supply available than demand from consumers. Consequently, they will reduce the price with the aim of selling the surplus and clearing the inventories. It's also important to understand that in a free market, consumers aren't willing to pay more than the equilibrium price, and the market forces tend to restore the balance, hence the decrease in the price to meet the equilibrium stage again.

Explanation:
Hokey Min's Kleen Karpet cleaned 85 rugs in October, consuming the following resources:Labor: 525 hours at $17 per hourSolvent: 120 gallons at $8 per hourMachine Rental: 20 days at $50 per hour(a) Labor productivity per dollar = ____ rugs/dollar (round your response to four decimal places).(b) Multifactor productivity =_____rugs/dollar (round your response to four decimal places).
Answer:
(a) The Labor productivity per dollar = 0.0095 rugs/dollar.
(b) The Multifactor productivity = 0.0078 rugs/dollar.
Explanation:
Given information:
Number of rugs = 85
Labors: 525 hours at $17 per hour.
Total cost of labors = 525 × 17 = $8925
Solvent: 120 gallons at $8 per hour.
Total cost of solvent = 120 × 8 = $960
Machine Rental: 20 days at $50 per hour.
Total rent = 20 × 50 = $1000
Total cost = Total cost of labors + Total cost of solvent + Total rent
Total cost = $8925 +$960 +$1000 =$10885
(a)
We need to find Labor productivity per dollar.
[tex]\text{Labor productivity}=\frac{outpu t}{\text{Labor cost}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Labor productivity}=\frac{85}{8925}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Labor productivity}=0.0095238[/tex]
[tex]\text{Labor productivity}\approx 0.0095[/tex]
Therefore the Labor productivity per dollar = 0.0095 rugs/dollar.
(b)
We need to find the Multifactor productivity.
[tex]\text{Multifactor productivity}=\frac{Outp ut}{\text{Total cost}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Multifactor productivity}=\frac{85}{10885}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Multifactor productivity}=0.0078089[/tex]
[tex]\text{Multifactor productivity}\approx 0.0078[/tex]
Therefore the Multifactor productivity = 0.0078 rugs/dollar.
Final answer:
Labor productivity per dollar for Hokey Min's Kleen Karpet is 0.009526 rugs/dollar, and the multifactor productivity is 0.004275 rugs/dollar, both rounded to four decimal places.
Explanation:
To answer the question about labor productivity per dollar and multifactor productivity for Hokey Min's Kleen Karpet, we need to calculate these based on the information given about the resources consumed.
(a) To find the labor productivity per dollar, we use the total number of rugs cleaned and divide that by the total labor cost:
Labor cost = 525 hours × $17 per hour = $8,925Labor productivity per dollar = 85 rugs / $8,925 = 0.009526 rugs/dollar (rounded to four decimal places)(b) To calculate the multifactor productivity, we sum all the costs and divide the number of rugs cleaned by this total cost:
Total solvent cost = 120 gallons × $8 per gallon = $960.Total machine rental cost = 20 days × $50 per hour = Assume a 10-hour day, $50 × 10 hours = $500/day, so $500/day × 20 days = $10,000.Total cost = Labor cost + Solvent cost + Machine cost = $8,925 + $960 + $10,000 = $19,885.Multifactor productivity = 85 rugs / $19,885 = 0.004275 rugs/dollar (rounded to four decimal places).Stimpleton Company engages in the following cash payments:
Purchase equipment $4,000
Pay rent 700
Repay loan to the bank 5,900
Pay workers' salaries 1,050
What is the total amount of cash paid for operating activities?
A.$1,750
B.$4,000
C.$6,950
D.$9,900
Answer:
A. $ 1.750
Explanation:
from the given infomation, the operating activities are:
1. pay rent = $ 700
2. pay workers salaries = $ 1.050
The total cash paid fpr operating activities = $ 700 + $ 1.050
= $ 1.750
Therefore, the total amount of cash paid for operating activities is $ 1.750.
The total cash paid for operating activities by Stimpleton Company is $1,750, which includes rent and workers' salaries, as purchase of equipment and loan repayment are not operating activities.
Explanation:The total amount of cash paid for operating activities by Stimpleton Company can be calculated by adding up only those expenses that are related to the company's primary operations. In this case, that includes the payment of rent and salaries to workers. The purchase of equipment and repayment of a loan are not considered operating activities; these are investing and financing activities, respectively. To find the total, we sum the rent payment of $700 and the workers' salaries of $1,050 which equals $1,750 (Option A).
Yield to Call and Realized Rates of Return Six years ago, Goodwynn & Wolf Incorporated (G&W) sold a 17-year bond issue with a 12% annual coupon rate and a 7% call premium. Today, G&W called the bonds. The bonds originally were sold at their face value of $1,000. Compute the realized rate of return for investors who purchased the bonds when they were issued and who surrender them today in exchange for the call price. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
YTC = IRR = 12.844% (exact using excle of financial calculator)
using approximation formula: 12.72%
Explanation:
The call premium means it were called at 107 of the face value
1,000 x 107/100 = 1,070
The investment was for 1,000
The bond yield a six years annuity of 120
and then called at 1,070
We need to know teh YTC:
[tex]YTC = \frac{C + \frac{P-F}{n }}{\frac{P+F}{2}}[/tex]
Coupon payment =1,000 x 12% = 120
Call Price: 1070
Face Value: 1000
n: 6 years
[tex]YTC = \frac{120 + \frac{1,070-1,000}{6}}{\frac{1,070+1,000}{2}}[/tex]
YTC = 12.7214171%
This method is an aproximation to the YTC
To solve for the YTC we can use excel IRR funtion
we write
-1,000 (investment)
120
120
120
120
120
+1,070+120 = 1,190 (total cashflow at year 6 call price and coupon)
and we calculate IRR selecting this values:
which give us 12.844%
Which is close to our approximation.
You are saving for the college education of your two children. They are two years apart in age; one will begin college 15 years from today and the other will begin 17 years from today. You estimate your children’s college expenses to be $40,000 per year per child, payable at the beginning of each school year. The appropriate interest rate is 7 percent. Your deposits begin one year from today. You will make your last deposit when your oldest child enters college. Assume four years of college for each child. How much money must you deposit in an account each year to fund your children’s education?
Answer:
It will deposit $ 10,082.68 per yearto fund their children tuiton
Explanation:
We calculate the present value of the tuiton:
We must notice payment are made atthe beginning of the year. So this will be an annuity-due
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate}(1+r) = PV\\[/tex]
C 40,000 per year
time 4 year
rate 7% = 7/100 = 0.07
[tex]40000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-4} }{0.07} (1+0.07) = PV\\[/tex]
PV $144,972.6418
we round to 144,972.64
Then, we have two children and we stop the payment when the oldest children goes into college.
so one tuiton must be carryied two years into the future:
[tex]Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount[/tex]
Principal $144,972.64
time 2 years
rate 0.07000
[tex]144972.64 \: (1+ 0.07)^{2} = Amount[/tex]
Amount 165,979.18
We add both to get the total value of our fund:
144,972.64 + 165,979.18 = 310,951.82 = 310,952
Finally we calculate the couta of this annuity for 17 years
[tex]PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C\\[/tex]
PV $310,952.00
time 17 years
rate 7% = 0.07
[tex]310952 \times \frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-17} }{0.07} = C\\[/tex]
C $ 10,082.68
Based o the fact that there are two children involved and the annual savings have to be uniform, the annual amount to fund your children's education will be $10,808.
How much should you deposit yearly?The amount needed for both children is:
= 2 students x ( College expenses x Present value factor for Annuity due, 7%, 4 years)
= 2 x (40,000 x 3.6243)
= $271,597
This is the total amount to be saved so the amount to be saved yearly is:
271,597 = Amount x ( ( 1 + 7%)¹⁵ - 1) / 7%
Amount = 271,597 / 25.1290
= $10,808
