In the 1990s there was tremendous interest by government officials in breaking up Microsoft into two companies. One of the companies would have produced operating systems for computers, like Microsoft Windows. The other company would have produced software for this operating system, like Microsoft Excel. Which concept from class could Microsoft use to argue that this breakup would increase total costs
Answer: Economies of scope
Explanation:
Economies of scope refers to the
proportionate saving that's gained when a company produces two or more goods, such that the cost of producing the goods is less than the cost incurred when each good is separately produced.
In such case, the average total cost of production will reduce as a result of the rise in the number of different goods that are produced.
Therefore, the concept that Microsoft use to argue that this breakup would increase total costs is Economies of scope
MFI Inc. has a beta of . If the expected market return is percent and the risk-free rate is percent, what is the appropriate required return of MFI (using the CAPM)? Using the CAPM, the appropriate required return of MFI is 14.74%. (Round to two decimal places.)
Answer: 14.38%
Explanation:
Required return using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is:
= Risk free rate + Beta * (Expected market return - Risk free rate)
= 6.5% + 1.05 * (14% - 6.5%)
= 6.5% + 7.875%
= 14.38%

Should the firms' overseas operations be judged by the standards (legal, economic, cultural, and moral) of the country in which it is operating or should they be judged by the standards of the U.S. market?
Answer: Standards of the country they operate in
Explanation:
Various countries have differing norms on what is legally, socially, morally and culturally acceptable. In order to be able to operate in those countries, companies would have to adapt to these requirements in order to maximize business operations.
It would therefore be illogical to judge these overseas operations in terms of the U.S. market which would be different from them. They should be judged on their own merit and then a standardizing factor can be used to relate them to the U.S. market to see whether they are performing well given their unique circumstances.

Bantam company calculated its net income to be $38,775 based on the unadjusted trial balance. The following adjusting entries were then made for:
Salaries and wages owed but not yet paid of $395.
Interest earned but not received from investments of $375.
Prepaid insurance premiums amounting to $275 have expired.
Unearned revenue in the amount of $805 has now been earned.
Required:
Determine the amount of net income (loss) that will be reported after the adjustments are recorded.
Answer:
the amount of net income or loss is $39,285
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of net income or loss is shown below:
= Net income + interest earned + unearned revenue - salaries & wages - prepaid insurance
= $38,775 + $375 + $805 - $395 - $275
= $39,285
hence, the amount of net income or loss is $39,285

How should partnership net income for 2008 be allocated to D, E, and F?
Answer:
The DEF Partnership
Allocation of Partnership Net Income for 2008:
D E F Total
Net income $130,000
Salaries $25,000 $20,000 $15,000 (60,000)
Bonus on net income 13,000 ----- ----- (13,000)
Remainder 34,200 17,100 5,700 (57,000)
Total allocation $72,200 $37,100 $20,700 $130,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2008 = $130,000
Order of distribution of partnership profits and losses:
D E F
Salaries $25,000 $20,000 $15,000
Bonus on net income 10% ----- -----
Remainder 60% 30% 10%
Bonus on net income = $13,000 ($130,000 * 10%)
Remainder after salaries and bonus = $57,000 ($130,000 - $73,000)
D = $34,200 ($57,000 * 60%)
E = $17,100 ($57,000 * 30%)
F = $5,700 ($57,000 * 10%)
Under the accrual basis of accounting, many of the account balance in the ledger at the end of the accounting period are reported in the financial statement without change. Some accounts require updating, though. When preparing financial statements, the economic life of the business is divided into time periods. The matching principle states that:___________.
1. A purchase made by a business is matched with the actual cost of the item
2. The accounting records and reports are matched with objective evidence
3. The transactions of a business are matched with the transactions of hs owner, creditors and other bussiness
4. The expenses incurred during a period are matched with the reverse that those expenses generated.
Answer: 4. The expenses incurred during a period are matched with the revenues that those expenses generated.
Explanation:
The accrual basis of accounting works by matching accounting transactions to the period that they occur in. For instance, if revenue is sold in year 1 but the cash for it is only received in year 2, the revenue will be recorded for year 1.
The matching principle falls under the accrual basis and matches the expenses in a period to the revenue that the expenses generated in that same period. This is why the expenses in the income statement are only those that occurred in the current period and expenses for future periods are put in the balance sheet.
Amanda is playing a game of chance in which she rolls a number cube with sides numbered from to 1 to 6. The number cube is fair, so a side is rolled at random. This game is this: Amanda rolls the number cube once. She wins $1 if a 1 is rolled, $2 if a 2 is rolled, $3 if a 3 is rolled, and 4 if a 4 is rolled. She loses $0,50 if a 4, 5 or 6 is rolled.
(a) Find the expected value of playing the game.
(b) What can Elsa expect in the long run, after playing the game many times?
1) Elsa can expect to gain money. She can expect to win__dollars per roll.
2) Elsa can expect to lose money. She can expect to lose___dollars per roll.
3) Elsa can expect to break even (neither gain nor lose money).
Answer:
a. 0.75
b. elsa can expect to gain money. 0.75$
Explanation:
x = 1/6 = 0.166667
given an outcome of 1,
1$ win * 0.166667 = 0.166667
given an outcome of 2,
$2 win * 0.166667 = 0.33333
given an outcome of 3,
$3 win*0.166667 = 0.5
remember that if she has an out come of 4, 5 and 6 she loses 0.5 dollars
given an outcome of 4,
-$0.5 * 0.166667 = -0.083333
given an outcome of 5,
-$0.5 * 0.166667 = -0.083333
given an outcome of 6,
-$0.5 * 0.166667 = -0.083333
The expected value of playing the game = 0.166667+0.333333+0.5-0.083333-0.083333-0.083333
= 0.750001
expected value of plying game = 0.75
b. in the long run, after playing the game many times, Elsa can expect to gain money. she can expect to win 0.75$ per role. option 1
