Answer: $0
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Nick and Katelyn paid $1,600 and $2,100 in qualifying expenses for their two daughters, Nicole and Naomi, respectively, to attend the University of Nevada and that Nicole is a sophomore and Naomi is a freshman.
We are further told that Nick and Katelyn's AGI is $202,000. Based on the above scenario, their allowable American opportunity tax credit will be $0. This is because when AGI is more than $180,000 for such taxpayers, the credit is being phased out.
Describe the main differences for revenue spending between ""for profit"" companies and ""not for profit"" companies. Describe how the main financial documents of Goodwill are similar to those companies that are ""for profit"". Describe how the main financial documents of Goodwill are difference to those companies that are ""for profit"".
Answer with Explanation:
The analysis includes the assessment of Non profit organization's efficiency both in fundraising and spending, economy of operations and the effectiveness of the operations. This can be explained with an example. For example if the non profit organization has an objective to increase the book reading habit because it believes that the people who read more are not violent personalities and in this way they can reduce the crime rate. So it has established number of libraries in different communities. Now we will look at at what cost it has acquired these libraries (Economy), how much people have visited these libraries (Efficiency) and whether the crime rate in the community has sufficiently fallen or not (Effectiveness). So this helps in understanding whether the objective was met or not.
However when we analyze the financial statement of profit making organizations then we use many profit and efficiency ratios to assess the performance of the organization. These ratios can also be helpful if the NGO is in business as well. But most of the NGOs rely on grants and these grants are subjective to their previous performance.
The NGOs are also required to publish reports according to the grant provider's enforced accounting principles, rules and guidelines. Just take the example of US-AID program that requires the Non profit organization to publish financial reports in specific format and enforces different Generally Acceptable Principles to be used in preparing these financial reports. So yes it is much more different in analyzing the financial statements of Non profit organization and profit making organization.
firm x projects an roe of 14% and it will maintain a pplowback ratio of .45 its earnings this year will be 3.60 per share investors expect 11% rate of retrun on the stock what price do you expect form x shares to sell for in 2 years
Answer:
$47.61 per share
Explanation:
As we know that:
Current Price = Expected Dividend / (Required Return - Growth Rate)
Here
Expected Dividend is $1.98 (Step1)
Required Return is 11%
Growth Rate is 6.3%
By putting values, we have:
Current Price = $1.98 / (0.11 - 0.063)
Current Price = $42.13
The price of Stock in 2 years will be adjusted by growth rate:
Price of Stock in 2 years = Current Price * (1 + Growth Rate)^2
Here
Current Price of the stock is $42.13 per share
Growth rate = ROE * Plowback Ratio = 14% * 0.45 = 6.30%
By putting values, we have:
Price of Stock in 2 years = $42.13 * 1.063^2
Price of Stock in 2 years = $47.61 per share
So, you should expect the share to sell at $47.61 in 2 years
Step 1: Find Expected Dividend
Expected Dividend = Expected Earnings * Payout Ratio
Here
Expected Earnings is $3.6 per share
Payout Ratio = 1 - Plowback Ratio = 1 - 0.45 = 55%
By putting values in the above equation, we have:
Expected Dividend = $3.60 * 55%
Expected Dividend = $1.98 per Share

Group of answer choices
a. Principal capacity and charged the client a markup
b. Agency capacity and charged the client a commission
c. Principal capacity and charged the client a commission
d. Agency capacity and charged the client a markup
Answer:
a. Principal capacity and charged the client a markup.
Explanation:
In this scenario, a client purchased 1,500 shares of stock from a broker-dealer, a registered market maker in this stock. The broker-dealer acted in a principal capacity and charged the client a markup.
A market maker can be defined as an individual or organization such as a broker-dealer who is usually willing to trade (buy and sell) stocks. This simply means that, a market maker is engaged in the business of trading shares of stock.
Generally, in the trading of stocks a market maker actually acts in a principal capacity and could charge his or her clients either a markup or markdown.
A markup can be defined as the difference between the amount of money paid by a customer and the market price of a stock being held by a broker-dealer.

If a firm has a strong set of innovation skills and capabilities, it should pursue entrepreneurial opportunities through acquisitions. joint ventures. strategic alliances. internal innovation.
Answer: Internal innovation.
Explanation:
If a firm is blessed with a strong set of innovation skills and capabilities then they should look in-house to come up with new entrepreneurial ventures and opportunities that can make them grow.
They could establish a Research and Development department to come up with various ways to grow the company. The key talent that R&D departments need to succeed is to be able to be innovative which is something that the company apparently has. If they can leverage these skills inwardly then they can grow from within like Apple did in its early days.
In an efficient market, professional portfolio management can offer all of the following benefits except which of the following?
A. A superior risk-return trade-off
B. Low-cost diversification
C. A targeted risk level
D. Low-cost record keeping
Answer:
A. A superior risk-return trade-off
Explanation:
In a normal and efficient market a professional portfolio management service is able to offer Low-cost diversification, A targeted risk level, and even a Low-cost record keeping. What they cannot offer is a superior risk-return trade-off, this is because risk-return holds a very correlated trade-off in which the higher amount of risk your portfolio holds the higher returns you can get from it, but this does not get rid of the risk which can cause you to lose all of your money. Therefore "superior" is unnachievable.

A portfolios is composed of two stocks, A and B. Stock A has a standard deviation of return of 19%, while stock B has a standard deviation of return of 25%. Stock A comprises 70% of the portfolio, while stock B comprises 30% of the portfolio. If the variance of return on the portfolio is .034, the correlation coefficient between the returns on A and B is_____.
a. 536.
b. 375.
c. 161.
d. 134.
Answer:
0.536
Explanation:
The computation of the correlation coefficient is shown below:-
[tex]\sigma^2_A \times w^2_A + \sigma^2_B \times w^2_B + 2\times w_A \times w_B \times \rho_{AB} \times \sigma_A \times \sigma_B = 0.034[/tex]
[tex]0.19^2 \times 0.70^2 + 0.25^2\times 0.30^2 + 2*0.70 \times 0.30 \times \rho_{AB} \times 0.19\times 0.25 = 0.034[/tex]
[tex]0.023314 + 0.01995 \times \rho_{AB} = 0.034[/tex]
[tex]0.01995 \times \rho_{AB} = 0.010686\\\\\rho_{AB} = 0.536[/tex]
Therefore for computing the correlation coefficient between the returns on A and B we simply applied the above formula.
So, according to the question the option is not available. The right answer is 0.536 and the same is not considered
An investor has 15 thousand dollars to invest among 3 possible investments A, B, C. Each investment must be in units of a thousand dollars. Not all the money need be invested. He must invest at least 3 thousand dollars on the investment A and at least 5 thounsand dollars on the investment B. How many different investment strategies are possible
Answer:
36 ways
Explanation:
There are 3 possible investments A, B and C.
If x represents the amount of money to be invested in the ith opportunity, it is given as:
[tex]x_1+x_2+x_3=15 \\[/tex]
Let y be the minimum investment to be made, therefore:
[tex]y_1=x_1-3\\y_2=x_2-5\\y_3=x_3\\\\Therefore:\\\\y_1+y_2+y_3+3+5=15\\\\y_1+y_2+y_3+8=15\\\\y_1+y_2+y_3=7\\[/tex]
The number of possible combinations is:
C(n + k - 1, k - 1)
Where k is the number of investment = 3 and n = 7. Therefore:
The number of possible combinations is = C(n + k - 1, n - 1) = C(7 + 3 -1, 3 - 1) = C(9, 2) = [tex]\frac{9!}{(9-2)!2!}=\frac{9!}{7!2!}=36\ ways[/tex]
Norman Bates is considering opening a motel. He estimates that the following costs will be incurred during his first month of operations: Rent $9,200, Wages $16,400, Laundry service 7,000, Occupancy taxes $10.00 per night. Soap & Shampoo will cost $3.00 per night. He must also pay a management company a management fee of $1.10 per night, since he will not be able to manage all aspects of the motel. In addition, cleaning costs are expected to behave in relation to the number of nights as follows: Number of nights Cleaning Costs 40 $ 600 60 $ 730 90 $ 960 120 $1260 140 $1500 Norman anticipates that he can charge $90 per night for each room. Instructions (a) Using the high-low method, determine the variable and fixed cost components of the cleaning costs. (b) Calculate the total variable costs and total fixed costs (c) Determine the break-even point in number of nights and sales dollars.
Answer:
Fixed costs:
Rent $9,200
Wages $16,400
Laundry service $7,000
Variable costs:
Soap & Shampoo $3.00
Management fee $1.10
Mixed costs (cleaning):
40 $600
60 $730
90 $960
120 $1,260
140 $1,500
a) variable cost = ($1,500 - $600) / (140 - 40) = $900 / 100 = $9
fixed costs = $600 - ($9 x 40) = $240
b) total fixed costs = $32,840
total variable costs per night = $13.10
c) contribution margin = $90 - $13.10 = $76.90
break even point = $32,840 / $76.90 = 427 nights
sales dollars = $427 x $90 = $38,430
Thomsen Computer Company produces three products: Earth, Wind, and Fire. Earth requires 80 machine setups, Wind requires 60 setups, and Fire requires 180 setups. Thomsen has identified an activity cost pool with allocated overhead of $360000 for which the cost driver is machine setups. How much overhead is assigned to each product?
Answer:
Earth = $90,000
Wind = $67,500
Fire = $202,500
Explanation:
Activity based costing is a costing system that assigns the cost of identified activities , mostly overhead and indirect cost to all products and services produced according to the respective volume of the activities consumed by each of the products and services , using cost drivers.
Workings.
The cost driver in the scenario is Machine set up
Earth = 80 set up
Wind = 60 set up
Fire = 180 set up
Total = 320 set up
General Overhead = 360,000
Earth = 80/320 *360,000 = 90,000
Wind = 60/320*360,000 = 67,500
Fire = 180/320*260000 = 202,500
Olsson Corporation received a check from its underwriters for $72 million. This was for the issue of one million of its $5 par stock that the underwriters expect to sell for $72 per share. Which is the correct entry to record the issue of the stock
Answer:
Debit Cash for $72,000,000
Credit Common Stock for $5,000,000
Credit Paid in capital in excess of par for $67,000,000
Explanation:
The correct entry will be look as follows:
Account Name Dr ($) Cr($)
Cash 72,000,000
Common Stock (w.1) 5,000,000
Paid in capital in excess of par (w.2) 67,000,000
(To record the issue of one million of $5 par stock.)
Wokings:
w.1: Commons stock = 1,000,000 * $5 = $5,000,000
w.2: Paid in capital in excess of par = Amount received from underwriter - Common stock = $72,000,000 - $5,000,000 = $67,000,000
Debt: 5,000 7.2 percent coupon bonds outstanding, $1,000 par value, 30 years to maturity, selling for 108 percent of par; the bonds make semiannual payments. Common stock: 440,000 shares outstanding, selling for $62 per share; the beta is 1.05. Market: 11 percent market risk premium and 5.2 percent risk-free rate. What is the company's WACC?
Answer:
the company's WACC is 15.07 %.
Explanation:
WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)
kd = cost of debt
Pv = $1,000 × 108% = - $1,080
n = 30 × 2 = 60
pmt = ($1,000 × 7.2 %) ÷ 2 = $36
p/yr = 2
Fv = $1,000
r = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the Pre-tax cost of debt, r is 6.5852 or 6.59 %
After tax cost of debt = Interest × (1 - tax rate)
I will use the pre-tax cost of debt for now since i do not have the tax rate on this question.
ke = cost of equity
= Return on Risk free security + Beta × Market Risk Premium
= 5.20 % + 1.05 × 11.00 %
= 16.75 %
E/V = Market Weight of Equity
= (440,000 × $62) / (440,000 × $62 + 5,000 × $1,080) × 100
= 83.48 %
D/V = Market Weight of Debt
= (5,000 × $1,080) / (440,000 × $62 + 5,000 × $1,080) × 100
= 16.52 %
WACC = 16.75 % × 83.48 % + 6.59 % × 16.52 %
= 15.07 %
Suppose a firm is the exclusive supplier of Painite, the world's rarest gemstone. Output is sold in two markets, A and B. Assume consumers in the markets are unable to sell gemstones to one another and can only purchase directly from the firm. Market A has a more inelastic demand than market B. What can be said about the prices the firm charges in each market?
Answer:
d. Market A will have a higher price than market B
Explanation:
As we know that in the non elastic market, the seller could charge the high price while on the other hand in the elastic market it can charge a smaller price
as if there is an inelastic demand than it would leads to 1% rise in price that decrease the quantity demanded by smaller than 1%. Also if the price increased the total revenue also rises
And if there is an elastic demand than it would leads to 1% rise in price that decrease the quantity demanded by more than 1% and the price increased the total revenue is decreased
As it is given that the Market A contains more inelastic demand than market B so the seller charged a high price in market A than in Market B
Hence, the last option is correct
assume the fixed overhead per unit was $1.50 for both the beginning and ending inventory. what is net income under absorption costing
Answer:
Net income under absorption costing is $904,370.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete and it contains an error in the only available data. The complete correct question is therefore provided before the question is answered as follows:
Kluber, Inc. had net income of $908,000 based on variable costing. Beginning and ending inventories were 55,800 units and 53,600 units, respectively. Assume the fixed overhead per unit was $1.65 for both the beginning and ending inventory. What is net income under absorption costing?
The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:
Variable costing is a costing technique that takes only the variable cost into consideration and exclude the fixed manufacturing overhead from the production production cost of a product.
Absorption costing is a costing technique in which the fixed overhead cost of production is allocated to products produced.
For this question, net income under absorption costing can be determined as follows:
Net income based on variable costing = $908,000
Total beginning fixed overhead = Beginning inventories * Fixed overhead per unit = 55,800 * $1.65 = $92,070
Total ending fixed overhead = Ending inventories * Fixed overhead per unit = 53,600 * $1.65 = $88,440
Adjustment for fixed overhead for the period = Total ending fixed overhead - Total beginning fixed overhead = $88,440 - $92,070 = -$3,630
Net income under absorption costing = Net income based on variable costing + Adjustment for fixed overhead for the period = $908,000 + (-$3,630) = $908,000 - $3,630 = $904,370
Therefore, net income under absorption costing is $904,370.

Find a numerical equation relating planned aggregate expenditure to output and to the real interest rate. [i.e. write down the PAE equation]
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Aggregate expenditure is the current value of finished products in an economy, it is gotten by summing all expenditures spent over a period of time in an economy. It is given by the formula:
PAE = [tex]C^d+I^p+G+X[/tex]
Where PAE is the planned aggregated demand, C is the household consumption, X is the difference between exports and imports, I is the investments while G is government expenditures
Suppose that in 1984 the total output in a single-good economy was 10,000 buckets of chicken. Also assume that in 1984 each bucket of chicken was priced at $10. Finally, assume that in 2005 the price per bucket of chicken was $16 and that 22,000 buckets were produced.
Required:
a. What is the GDP price index for 1994, using 2005 as the base year?
b. By what percentage did the price level, as measured by this index rise between 1984 and 2005?
c. What were the amounts of real GDP in 1984 and 2005?
Answer:
a. 62.5
b. 60%
c. $160,000; $352,000
Explanation:
a. Price Index = (Price in year of interest/ Price in Base year) * 100
= (10/16) * 100
= 62.5
b. Rose from 62.5 in 1984 to 100 in 2005
= (100 - 62.5)/62.5
= 60%
c. Using 2005 as the Base year means that the Real GDP will be based on 2005 prices.
Real GDP 1984
= 10,000 buckets * 16
= $160,000
Real GDP 2005
= 22,000 * 16
= $352,000
Last year, when the stock of Waldo, Inc., was selling for $28 a share, the dividend yield was 3.5 percent. Today, the stock is selling for $35 a share. What is the required return on this stock if the company maintains a constant dividend growth rate of 5 percent?
Answer:
The required rate of return on the stock is 8.087%
Explanation:
The constant growth model of DDM is used to calculate the price of a stock whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate forever. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The price of the stock under this model can be calculated as,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
P0 is price of the stock todayD0 * (1+g) is the dividend expected from the stock for the next periodr is the required rate of returng is the constant growth rate in dividendsTo calculate the r or required rate of return, we first need to determine the dividend that was paid last year. Then we will apply the constant growth rate to that dividend to calculate the dividend today or D0. We will them input the value of stock price, the current dividend and the dividend growth rate in the formula above to calculate the required rate of return.
Dividend per share - Last year
Dividend yield = Dividend per share / Price per share
0.035 = Dividend per share / 28
0.035 * 28 = Dividend per share
Dividend per share = $0.98
The dividend per share today (D0) is,
D0 = 0.98 * (1+0.05)
D0 = $1.029
35 = 1.029 * (1+0.05) / (r - 0.05)
35 * (r - 0.05) = 1.08045
35r - 1.75 = 1.08045
35r = 1.08045 + 1.75
r = 2.83045 / 35
r = 0.08087 or 8.087%
