Answer: $42.93
Explanation:
To solve this question goes thus:
Year 1:
Cash flow = $2.50
PV at 10% = 0.9091
Present value = $2.27
Year 2:
Cash flow = $2.70
PV at 10% = 0.8264
Present value = $2.23
Year 3:
Cash flow = $2.92
PV at 10% = 0.7513
Present value = $2.19
Price at Year 3:
Cash flow = $48.23
PV at 10% = 0.7513
Present value = $36.24
Price to be paid = $2.27 + $2.23 + $2.19 + $36.24 = $42.93

Haylock Inc. bases its manufacturing overhead budget on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 7,500 direct labor-hours will be required in August. The variable overhead rate is $1.50 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $100,410 per month, which includes depreciation of $8,940. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The August cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:
Answer:
Overhead cash disbursement= $102,720
Explanation:
First, we need to allocate variable overhead using the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 1.5*7,500
Allocated MOH= $11,250
Now, we can calculate the cash disbursement for August. Depreciation is not a cash expense. We should deduct it from fixed costs.
Overhead cash disbursement= 11,250 + 100,410 - 8,940
Overhead cash disbursement= $102,720
Ace Leasing acquires equipment and leases it to customers under long-term sales-type leases. Ace earns interest under these arrangements at a 6% annual rate. Ace leased a machine it purchased for $790,000 under an arrangement that specified annual payments beginning at the commencement of the lease for five years. The lessee had the option to purchase the machine at the end of the lease term for $200,000 when it was expected to have a residual value of $350,000. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Calculate the amount of the annual lease payments. (Enter amounts as positive values rounded to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer:
$143,750
Explanation:
We have to first calculate the present value of the bargain purchase option:
PV = $200,000 / (1 + 6%)⁵ = $149,451.63
net lease amount = $790,000 - $149,452 = $640,548
PVIF Annuity due, 6%, 5 payments = 4.546
Annual payment = $640,548 / 4.456 = $143,750
Parent Co. purchased the entire business of Subsidiary Co. including all its assets and liabilities for $600,000. Below is information related to the two companies: Parent Subsidiary Fair value of assets $1,050,000 $800,000 Fair value of liabilities 575,000 300,000 Reported assets 800,000 650,000 Reported liabilities 500,000 250,000 Net Income for the year 60,000 50,000 How much goodwill did Parent pay for acquiring Subsidiary
Answer:
$100,000
Explanation:
Calculation of Net amount payable:
Net Amount Payable = Fair Value of asset - Fair Value of liabilities = $800,000 - $300,000 = $500,000
Calculation of Goodwill that Parent pays to Subsidiary:
Goodwill = Actually paid amount - Net amount payable = $600,000 - $500,000 = $100,000
Dream, Inc., has debt outstanding with a face value of $6 million. The value of the firm if it were entirely financed by equity would be $18.25 million. The company also has 440,000 shares of stock outstanding that sell at a price of $32 per share. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent. What is the decrease in the value of the company due to expected bankruptcy costs? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.)
Answer:
$955,000
Explanation:
According to the Modigliani and Miller theory, we can calculate the value of the levered firm which is denoted by;
VI = Vu + tB
VI = 18.25million + 0.35(6million)
VI = 20.35 million
We can also calculate the total market value of the firm Vt by adding the debt (B) with the total equity (SV)
Vt = B + SV
Vt = 5 million + 440,000(32)
Vt = 5 million + 14.80 million
Vt = 19.80 million
Then the decrease in the value of the company due to bankruptcy is
Vb = VI - Vt
Vb = 20.35 million - 19.80 million
VB = $955,000
Kayak Co. budgeted the following cash receipts (excluding cash receipts from loans received) and cash payments (excluding cash payments for loan principal and interest payments) for the first three months of next year.
Cash Receipts Cash payments
January $528,000 $473,700
February 405,000 350,700
March 470,000 536,000
According to a credit agreement with its bank, Kayak requires a minimum cash balance of $40,000 at each month-end. In return, the bank has agreed that the company can borrow up to $160,000 at a monthly interest rate of 1%, paid on the last day of each month. The interest is computed based on the beginning balance of the loan for the month. The company repays loan principal with any cash in excess of $40,000 on the last day of each month. The company has a cash balance of $40,000 and a loan balance of $80,000 at January 1.
Required:
Prepare monthly cash budgets for January, February, and March.
Answer:
Ending Cash Balance as are follows:
January = $40,000
February = $67,535
March = $40,000
Also, Loan Balance End of Month as follows:
January = $26,500
February = $0
March = $38,465
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the cash budget.
In the attached excel file, the following calculations are made:
January loan repayment = January Preliminary cash - January Interest expense - Minimum required cash balance = $94,300 - $800 - $40,000 = $53,500
February Loan repayment = January Loan Balance End of the Month = $26,500
March Additional Loan = Minimum required cash balance - March Preliminary cash balance = $40,000 - $1,535 = $38,465
From the attached excel file, we have Ending Cash Balance as follows:
January = $40,000
February = $67,535
March = $40,000
And also, Loan Balance End of Month as follows:
January = $26,500
February = $0
March = $38,465

A baseball team plays in a stadium that holds 48000 spectators. With the ticket price at $8 the average attendance has been 20000. When the price dropped to $5, the average attendance rose to 24000. a) Find the demand function p(x), where x is the number of the spectators. (Assume that p(x) is linear.) p(x)= b) How should ticket prices be set to maximize revenue? The revenue is maximized by charging $ per ticket.
Answer:
The ticket price should be $10.2
Explanation:
The revenue is given by the equation:
1 /3 (5000x + 102,000) x
dy / dx = -5000 * 2/3 x + 34,000 = 0
x = 10.2
The ticket price should be $10.2 per ticket. This is the optimal price which will maximize the revenue of the stadium.
Capalbo Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on the estimated labor-hours for the upcoming year. At the beginning of the most recently completed year, the company estimated the laborhours for the upcoming year at 52,000 labor-hours. The estimated variable manufacturing overhead was $2.78 per labor-hour and the estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead was $1,192,360. The actual labor-hours for the year turned out to be 52,600 labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to: A. $2.78. B. $25.45. C. $25.71. D. $22.93.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $25.71 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (1,192,360 / 52,000) + 2.78
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 22.93 + 2.78
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $25.71 per direct labor hour
Swifty Company's financial information is presented below. Sales Revenue $ p?Cost of Goods Sold 536000 Sales Returns and Allowances 37000 Gross Profit p?Net Sales 868000 The missing amounts above are: Sales Revenue Gross Profit a. $905000 $332,000 b. $832,000 $332,000 c. $ 905,000 $416,000 d. $832,000 $416,000
Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
The gross profit is calculated by deducting from net sales the cost of goods sold:
Gross profit= net sales - COGS
Gross profit= 868,000 - 536,000
Gross profit= $332,000
Now, the sales revenues are the sales before returns and allowances. Therefore, we need to add them to the net sales:
Sales revenue= 868,000 + 37,000
Sales revenues= $905,000

Answer:
a. Michelle moves her food truck between various locations on a daily rotation. Last week, Michelle was stopped for speeding. She paid a fine of $215 for speeding plus $170 for legal advice in connection with the ticket.
Speeding tickets and fines cannot be deducted as business expenses. But Michelle can deduct all legal expenses.
b. Michelle paid $865 to reserve a parking place for her food truck for the fall football season outside the local football arena. Michelle also paid $210 for tickets to a game for her children.
Michelle can deduct the $865 paid for the space outside the football field, but she cannot deduct the tickets (personal expenses).

Political donations are not deductible as business expenses.8. Zelda owns a 50% general interest in YZ Partnership. At the beginning of the current year, the adjusted basis in her partnership interest was $95,000. In the current year, YZ generated a $110,000 business loss, earned $15,000 dividend and interest income on its investments and recognized a $7,000 capital gain. YZ also made a $5,000 distribution to Zelda. Compute Zelda’s adjusted basis in the partnership at the end of the year.
Answer:
$52,500
Explanation:
Computation for Zelda’s adjusted basis in the partnership at the end of the year.
Zelda’s adjusted basis=$95,000-(50%*$110,000)+(50%*$15,000)+$5,000
Zelda’s adjusted basis=$95,000-$55,000+$7,500+$5,000
Zelda’s adjusted basis= $52,500
Based on the information given we assumed 50% because Zelda is a 50% partner.
Therefore Zelda’s adjusted basis in the partnership at the end of the year will be $52,500

Tulane Tires wrote a contract for a $104,000 sale of tires to the new Garden District Tour Company. Tulane only anticipates a slightly greater than 50 percent chance that Garden will be able to pay the amounts that Tulane is entitled to receive under the contract. Upon delivery of the tires, assuming no payment has yet been made by Garden, how much revenue should Tulane recognize under U.S. IFRS
Answer: $0
Explanation:
Under the United States IFRS, we should note that in this case, the contract according to the question will not be able to qualify for revenue recognition since the percentage of it occuring is more than 50% which mean that it is very likely it'll exist.
Therefore, in this case, revenue recognized will be $0.

Total assets
= 187,500 + 325,900 - 186,000 + 375,000 + 8400 + 6000 + 11,200 + C
where C is the closing balance in the cash account
= 728,000 + C
Total liabilities
= 51,200 + 7500 + 21,000
= $79,700
Total equities
= 620,300 + 100,000
= $720,300
Since Assets = Liabilities + Equities
728,000 + C = 720,300 + 79,700
C = 720,300 + 79,700 - 728,000
C = $72,000

Revi Corp. provides the following information for the upcoming year: It expects to sell 29,000 pool cues for $13 each. Direct materials costs are $3, direct manufacturing labor is $5, and manufacturing overhead is $0.83 per pool cue. The following inventory levels apply to the upcoming year: Beginning inventory Ending inventory Direct materials 24,000 units 24,000 units Work-in-process inventory 0 units 0 units Finished goods inventory 1,200 units 2,800 units What are the budgeted costs for direct materials, direct manufacturing labor, and manufacturing overhead, respectively
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the production budget and this will be:
Sales = $29000
Add: Closing inventory of finished goods = $2800
Less: Opening inventory of finished goods = $1200
Production budget = $30600
Direct material purchased:
Production = 30600
Add: Closing inventory of direct material = 24000
Less: Opening inventory of direct material = 24000
Direct material purchased = 36000
a. Budgeted costs for direct materials
= Direct material purchased × price per unit
= 30600 × $3
= $91800
b. Direct manufacturing labor
= Production unit × Cost per unit
= 30600 × $5
= $153000
c. Manufacturing overhead
= Production units × Cost per unit
= 30600 × $0.83
= $25398

We are evaluating a project that costs $660,000, has a five-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 69,000 units per year. Price per unit is $58, variable cost per unit is $38, and fixed costs are $660,000 per year. The tax rate is 35 percent, and we require a return of 12 percent on this project. a. Calculate the accounting break-even poin
Answer:
39600
Explanation:
Breakeven quantity are the number of units produced and sold at which net income is zero
Breakeven quantity = fixed cost / price – variable cost per unit
Fixed cost = cost of machine + depreciation expense
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
$660,000 / 5 = $132,000
total fixed cost $660,000 + $132,000 = $792,000
$792,000 / ($58 - $38) = 39,600

According to the theory of liquidity preferences, expanding the money supply will _____ nominal interest rates in the short run, and, according to the Fischer effect, expanding the money supply will _____ nominal interest rates in the long run. Group of answer choices increase; increase; increase; decrease decrease; increase decrease; decrease
Answer: decrease; increase
Explanation:
According to the Liquidity Preference theory, in the short run, increasing money supply will mean that there is more money in the economy which translates to more money for investment. This will lead to a decrease in interest rates as there are more sources of investment.
In the long run however, the Fischer effect shows interest will move with inflation. If money supply is expanded, it will lead to inflation in the long run because there will be more demand. This rise in inflation will cause interest rates to rise as well.
