Answer:
85%
Explanation:
With regards to the information above, predetermined overhead will be computed as;
Predetermined overhead = (Estimated overhead / Expected labor cost) × 100
Estimated overhead = $85,000
Expected labor cost = $100,000
Then,
Predetermined overhead = ($85,000 / $100,000) × 100
Predetermined overhead = 85%
Therefore, its predetermined overhead rate for the next period should be 85%

2. Interest expense for the July1–December 31 period was $_____.
3. Book value of Bonds on June 30 was $_____.
4. Book value of Bonds on December 31 was $_____.
5. Interest payment on June 30 was $_____.
Answer:
ARC Inc.
1. Interest expense for the January 1–June 30 period was $__5,798___.
2. Interest expense for the July 1–December 31 period was $__5,850___.
3. Book value of Bonds on June 30 was $__89,998___.
4. Book value of Bonds on December 31 was $__90,848___.
5. Interest payment on June 30 was $__5,000___.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
January 1, 2017:
Face value of issued bonds = $100,000 ($1,000 * 100)
Coupon rate of interest = 10%
Effective rate of interest = 13%
Price of issued bonds = $89,200 ($892 * 100)
Discount on bonds = $10,800 ($100,000 - $89,200)
Interest payment = June 30 and December 31 (semiannually)
June 30:
Interest expense = $5,798 ($89,200 * 6.5%)
Cash payment = $5,000 ($100,000 * 5%)
Amortization of discount = $798
Value of bonds = $89,998 ($89,200 + $798)
December 31, 2017:
Interest expense = $5,850 ($89,998 * 6.5%)
Cash payment = $5,000 ($100,000 * 5%)
Amortization of discount = $850
Value of bonds = $90,848 ($89,998 + $850)
If a firm has sales of $100, total expenses (including interest and taxes) of $50, has a stock that is selling at $50 per share and has 10 shares of stock outstanding, then the firm has a P/E ratio of:
Answer: 10
Explanation:
P/E Ratio = Price per share/Earnings per share
Earnings per share:
= (Sales - expenses) / number of shares outstanding
= (100 - 50) / 10
= $5.00
P/E Ratio is therefore:
= 50 / 5
= 10

Nouvelle-Aquitaine Railroad is comparing two separate capital structures. The first structure consists of 405,000 shares of stock and no debt. The second structure consists of 252397 shares of stock and $1.82 million of debt. What is the price per share of equity?
a. $75.56.
b. $88.76.
c. $82.42.
d. $72.12.
e. $93.20.
Answer:
$11.93
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the price per share of equity
Using this formula
Price per share of equity = Debt under Plan II / (Number of shares under Plan I - Number of shares under Plan II)
Let plug in the formula
Price per share of equity= $1,820,000 / (405,000 - 252,397)
Price per share = $1,820,000 / 152,603
Price per share = $11.93
Therefore the price per share of equity is $11.93
In a small open economy, output (gross domestic product) is $25 billion, government purchases are $6 billion, and net factor payments from abroad are zero. Desired consumption and desired investment are related to the world real interest rate in the following manner:
World Real Interest Rate Desired Consumption Desired Investment
5% $12 billion $3 billion
4% $13 billion $4 billion
3% $14 billion $5 billion
2% $15 billion $6 billion
For each value of the world real interest rate, find national saving, foreign lending, and absorption. Calculate net exports as the difference between output and absorption. What is the relationship between net exports and foreign lending?
Answer:
Consumption is given.
Investment is also given.
Government spending is $6 billion.
GDP is $25 billion.
National Saving = GDP - Consumption - Government spending
Foreign lending = Savings - Investment
Absorption = Consumption + Investment + Government spending
Net Exports = GDP - Absorption
The relationship/ correlation between Net Exports and Foreign Lending is one that is perfectly positive as both measures are exactly the same.
What happens to the price of a three-year annual coupon paying bond with an 8% coupon when interest rates change from 8% to 8.96%
Answer:
It would reduce to -24.3185
Explanation:
I solved this on paper and have added the solution as an attachment
At 8% rate of interest the price of this bond is 1000
At 8.96% rate of interest the calculated price of the coupon bond is 975.681
975.681-1000 = -24.3185
When the interest rate falls from 8% to 8.96%, the price of the bond reduces by -24.3185
The demand for aloe vera hand lotion, one of numerous products manufactured by Smooth Skin Care Products Inc., has dropped sharply because of recent competition from a similar product. The company's chemists are currently completing tests of various new formulas, and it is anticipated that the manufacture of a superior product can be started on December 1, one month in the future. No changes will be needed in the present production facilities to manufacture the new product because only the mixture of the various materials will be changed.
The controller has been asked by the president of the company for advice on whether to continue production during November or to suspend the manufacture of aloe vera hand lotion until December 1. The controller has assembled the following pertinent data:
Sales (400,000 units) $32,000,000
Cost of goods sold 28,330,000
Gross profit $3,670,000
Selling and administrative expenses 4,270,000
Loss from operations ($600,000)
The production costs and selling and administrative expenses, based on production of 400,000 units in October, are as follows:
Direct materials $15per unit
Direct labor 17per unit
Variable manufacturing cost 35per unit
Variable selling and administrative expenses 10 per unit
Fixed manufacturing cost $1,530,000 for October
Fixed selling and administrative expenses 270,000 for October
Sales for November are expected to drop about 20% below those of the preceding month. No significant changes are anticipated in the fixed costs or variable costs per unit. No extra costs will be incurred in discontinuing operations in the portion of the plant associated with aloe vera hand lotion. The inventory of aloe vera hand lotion at the beginning and end of November is expected to be inconsequential.
Required:
Prepare an estimated income statement in absorption costing form for November for aloe vera hand lotion, assuming that production continues during the month.
Answer:
Estimated loss from operations for aloe vera hand lotion in November = -$534,000.
Explanation:
The following calculations are done first:
Direct materials per unit = $15
Direct labor per unit = $17
Variable manufacturing cost per unit = $35
Fixed manufacturing cost per unit = Fixed manufacturing cost for October / Number of units in October = $1,530,000 / 400,000 = $3.825
Cost of goods sold per unit = Product cost per unit = Direct materials per unit + Direct labor per unit + Variable manufacturing cost per unit + Fixed manufacturing cost per unit = $15 + $17 + $35 + $3.825 = $70.825
Also, we have:
Expected sales in unit for November = Sales in unit for October * (100% - Expected percentage drop in sales) = 400,000 * (100% - 20%) = 320,00 units
Selling price per unit = Sales in October / Units sold in October = $32,000,000 / 400,000 = $80
Variable selling and administrative expenses per unit = $10
Fixed selling and administrative expenses for October = $270,000
Based on the above calculations, an estimated income statement in absorption costing form for November for aloe vera hand lotion can be prepared as follows:
Smooth Skin Care Products Inc.
Estimated Income Statement for Aloe Vera Hand Lotion
(Absorption Costing)
For November

Gross profit 2,936,000
Selling and administrative expenses:
Variable ($10 * 320,000) (3,200,000)
Fixed (270,000)
Loss from operations (534,000)
Therefore, we have:
Estimated loss from operations for aloe vera hand lotion in November = -$534,000

A stock just announced that its next annual dividend will be $1.02 and it expects to increase that dividend by 2.5 percent annually. The stock is currently selling for $28 a share. How do you compute the expected rate of return?
a) i = ($1.02/$28) + 0.025
b) i = [($1.02 x 1.025)/$28] + 0.025
c) i = ($1.02/$28) - 0.025
d) i = ($1.02 X 1.025)/$28
Answer: A. i = ($1.02/$28) + 0.025
Explanation:
The expected rate of return will be calculated as:
= (Expected dividend/Price today) + growth rate
where,
Expected dividend = $1.02
Price today = $28
Growth rate = 2.5%
Then, slotting the figures into the equation will give:
= (1.02/28) + 2.5%
= (1.02/28) + 0.025
Therefore, the correct option is A

What is a bond?A bond is a sort of security used in finance where the issuer owes the holder a debt and is required, depending on the terms, to repay the principal and interest on the bond at the maturity date.
The interest is typically due at predetermined intervals, such semiannually, annually, and less frequently at various times.
A bond is therefore a type of loan or IOU. With the help of bonds, the borrower can finance long-term investments or, in the case of government bonds, current expenses.
Although both stocks and bonds are considered securities, stockholders have an equity ownership in a corporation, whereas bondholders have a creditor stake.
Bondholders have precedence over stockholders in terms of debt. In the event of bankruptcy, they will receive payment before stockholders but after secured creditors.
Another distinction is that, unlike stocks, which often have an unlimited shelf life, bonds typically have a defined term, or maturity, after which the bond is repaid.

Current operating income for Bay Area Cycles Co. is $26,000. Selling price per unit is $100, the contribution margin ratio is 25% and fixed expense is $104,000. Required: 1. Calculate Bay Area Cycle's breakeven point in units and total sales dollars. Break-even units Break-even dollars 2. Calculate Bay Area Cycle's margin of safety and margin of safety ratio.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= 100*0.25
Unitary contribution margin= $25
Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units and dollars:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 104,000 / 25
Break-even point in units= 4,160
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 104,000 / 0.25
Break-even point (dollars)= $416,000
Finally, the margin of safety in dollars as a ratio:
Current sales= (26,000 + 104,000) / 25
Current sales= 5,200
Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)
Margin of safety= (5,200*100 - 416,000)
Margin of safety= $104,000
Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level
Margin of safety ratio= 104,000 / 520,000
Margin of safety ratio= 0.2 = 20%

As per the description, the exact amount that is being contributed from the corn bushel to the Gross Domestic Product would be $ 25. The price at which the farmer sold it to the supermarket would not be included in the GDP because it would be considered as an intermediary good because the good purchased for the resale purpose is not included in GDP as it leads to double-counting. Thus, only the price of the final good i.e. $ 25 would be included in GDP as it will now be used for final consumption by the customers.
which of the following is false? when a cboe call option on ibm is exercised, ibm issues more stock. an american option can be exercised at any time during its life. a put option will always be exercised at maturity if the strike price is greater than the underlying asset price
Answer:
The false statement is:
when a CBOE call option on IBM is exercised, IBM issues more stock.
Explanation:
CBOE = Chicago Board Options Exchange. CBOE pioneered the options trading in 1973. It has remained the largest U.S. options market operator. It supports options trading on thousands of publicly listed stocks and exchange-traded products. Exercising a call option on the exchange platform does not affect the outstanding IBM stock and will never force IBM Corporation to issue more stock.
