Answer:
O None of the above
Explanation:
The expenses at the end of December 31, 2019, will be 6 months interest.
Interest = p x r x t
in this case
p= $200,000
r=9% or 0.09
t= 6 months or 0.5 years
Interest = $200,000 x 0.09 x 0.5
Interest = $ 18,000 x 0.5
Interest = $9,000

ear, Inc. generates a $100,000 net operating loss in the current year. Plum, Inc. generates $500,000 of taxable income. Compute the current year tax if Pear and Plum do/do not file a consolidated return.
Answer:
Consolidated=$84,000
Not consolidated= $105,000
Explanation:
Computation for the current year tax if Pear and Plum do/do not file a consolidated return.
Computation for Consolidated
Taxable income = ($500,000 - $100,000) x 21%
Taxable income =$400,000×21%
Taxable income = $84,000
Computation for Not consolidated
Not consolidated= $500,000 x 21%
Not consolidated= $105,000
Therefore the current year tax if Pear and Plum do/do not file a consolidated return will be :
Consolidated=$84,000
Not consolidated= $105,000

Suppose the local government imposes an annual lump-sum tax per plant.How will the average fixed cost, average variable cost, average total cost, and marginal cost curves faced by a steel manufacturer be affected
Answer:
The Tax is a lump-sum which means that it does not change by output. It is therefore a fixed cost.
Average Fixed Cost ⇒ INCREASE
The new tax would increase the fixed costs which would lead to an increase in the average fixed costs.
Average Variable Cost ⇒ UNCHANGED
The tax is a fixed cost not a variable cost which means variable costs will not be affected.
Average Total cost ⇒ INCREASE
Fixed costs is a part of total cost and if that increases, the total cost will have to increase as well.
Marginal Cost ⇒ UNCHANGED
As the cost that changed is a fixed cost, the total cost will not change as a result of more production so marginal cost will not change.

The United States' economy is growing at a faster rate than the economy of its trading partner, the United Kingdom. As a result, the rate of American inflation is increasing.Draw correctly labeled graphs to show how the increase in inflation will affect the supply of the U.S. dollar and demand for the British pound in the foreign exchange market.Based on the scenario, what will happen to the value of the U.S. dollar
Answer:
If the U.S. economy fast paced growth causes inflation to rise, this will make the value of the U.S. dollar go down, because more U.S. dollars will be needed to buy the same amount of goods and services (including foreign currency) since what inflation causes is a loss of purchasing power of the currency.
For this reason, international investors will demand less U.S. dollars in the foreign exchange market, including British investors.
While the supply of U.S. dollars will continue to grow (because inflation is primarily caused by a rise in the money supply) demand will continue to fall, both against the British pound, and other currency. This will further lower the value of the U.S. dollar in the foreign exchange market, while appreciating the British Pound at the same time.

= $778
Now
Carrying value on may 1, 2018 is
= $106,000 - $778
= $105,222
Now
Retirement value is
= 100,000 × 1.16
= 116,000
So,
Gain on retirement is
= 116,000 - 105,222
= $10,778

Problem 3. A company wants to forecast demand for June using a two period weighted moving average with weights of .6 (for May) and .4 (for April). Calculate the forecast for June. Jan 100 Feb 150 Mar 200 Apr 500 May 800 June
Answer:
June forecast = 680
Explanation:
Since we are required to use two period weighted moving average, the forecast for June can be calculated using the following formula:
June forecast = (April figure * Weight for April) + (May figure * Weight for May) ....... (1)
Where;
April figure = 500
Weight for April = 0.4
May figure = 800
Weight for May = 0.6
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
June forecast = (500 * 0.4) + (800 * 0.6) = 200 + 480 = 680

Dr. Land Account ______50,000 pounds
Cr. Appreciation on Land 50,000 pounds
Explanation:
As Land is recorded at the value of $50,000 and it is needed to be appreciated on December 31,2X12.
The appreciation will increase the value of the land so the land account will be debited as it is a fixed asset account that has debit nature.
On the other hand, the appreciation on the land account will be credit because it is an unrecognized income/gain account that will be reported as other comprehensive income.
Adjustment = Appreciated Value - Carrying Value = 100,000 pounds - 50,000 pounds = 50,000 pounds
Note: As depreciation is not applicable on the land so, the carrying value on December 31, 2X10 will be the same on December 31,2X12 before adjustment.

What is meant when economists say that the US economy has a higher safe speed limit than it had previously
Answer:
When economists say that the US economy has a higher safe speed limit than it had previously, it means that:
Overheating the US economy does not produce high inflation.
Explanation:
The US economy is being overheated through rapid economic expansions. Some of these expansions are engendered by rapid technological changes. The US government also often indulge in aggressive economic expansions by ensuring maximum employment and capacity utilization. But these measures have been found to not distort the economy with high inflation rates. As a result, an economist can conclude that "the US economy has a higher safe speed limit than it had previously."
When trade barriers began to fall, what was the motivation for much of the foreign direct investment by non-U.S. firms
Answer:
The motivations were all the advantages that the U.S. market offers.
These advantages are many, because the U.S. is a developed country, with a very large population, and a robust legal system that protects private property, including the property of non U.S. firms that invest in the country.
For these reasons, once trade barriers began to fall, many non U.S. firms took advantage of the new opportunities, and started to invest in the U.S. market.
