Answer:
transitional matrix.
Explanation:
transitional matrix allows to have
probabilities with more than one states moving from one to another. With transitional matrix, prediction can be made as well as the followed trend of events.it can be regarded as stochastic matrix.
In the case whereby Paul, needs information about the number of employees currently providing customer service, the number likely to be in those jobs next year, and the number expected to move to other positions in the organization, it will be easier to organize and interpret all these information if Paul uses transitional matrix because there are different states of information here, and he needs to move from one to the other.
ethical dilemma ethical lapse
Answer:
An ethical lapse is a mistake or error in judgement that produces a harmful outcome (Roslyn Frenz, n.d., para. ... Otherwise there are grave consequences for such ethical lapses and could result in widespread harm to the company and to the society at large.
In both situations presented, I believe them to be ethical dilemmas. An ethical dilemma is considered to be a problem between two possibilities that are not acceptable or preferable. Making a choice between the two would result in hurting the other. Employing the child is wrong because of labor laws, but the child is able to provide for themselves because of it. Taking away the employment would make the child homeless and hungry. The second scenario is also a dilemma because you run the risks of loosing profits if you do things the correct way. Neither choice would result in a preferable outcome. Doing the right thing sometimes comes with a price.
Explanation:
Examples of ethical lapses include business-related misconduct such as fraud, bribery, insider trading, and environmental disasters involving negligence or recklessness. They also include personal ethical misconduct, such as inflated résumés and sexual indiscretions.
Interest rates affect corporate profits and security prices. Based on your understanding of the relationship between interest rates and corporate profits and security prices,identify which of the following statements is true and which is false. Statements 1. Interest rates affect the level of economic activity, which in turn affects the profits earned by a business organization, all other considerations remaining constant. 2. Interest rates will affect the preference of investors to own stocks versus owning bonds. 3. A sharp decrease in interest rates will increase the price of bonds, which can significantly decrease the potential for capital gains and the yield earned by a bondholder. This should decrease the demand for bonds compared to the demand for stocks, all other considerations remaining constant. 4. An increase in market interest rates will increase the opportunity cost of investors' funds and increase the price of financial assets.
Answer:
1. Interest rates affect the level of economic activity, which in turn affects the profits earned by a business organization, all other considerations remaining constant.
TRUE, higher interest rates "cool down" the economy, reducing economic activity, disposable income and the profits earned by companies. Lower interests rates due the opposite.
2. Interest rates will affect the preference of investors to own stocks versus owning bonds.
TRUE, e.g. if interest rates increase, the price of bonds decrease, which can result in higher yields for bondholders. Since money is limited, if more people invest in bonds, less people will invest in stocks. A decrease in interest rates results in the opposite.
3. A sharp decrease in interest rates will increase the price of bonds, which can significantly decrease the potential for capital gains and the yield earned by a bondholder. This should decrease the demand for bonds compared to the demand for stocks, all other considerations remaining constant.
TRUE, for the same reasons as question 2.
4. An increase in market interest rates will increase the opportunity cost of investors' funds and increase the price of financial assets.
FALSE, as the interest rates increase, the price of financial assets decrease. They basically go on the opposite way. If the interest rates decrease, then the price of financial assets increases.
A segment is unattractive if the company's suppliers are able to raise prices or reduce quantity supplied. Which of the following is the best illustration of the threat of suppliers' growing bargaining power? A. Sears unsuccessfully attempted to compete with WaI-Mart and Kmart. B. McDonald's is the largest fast food franchise and is still growing. C. The U.S. Post Office has merged package operations with FedEx. D. Oil companies must purchase a significant amount of their product from OPEC. E. Wal-Mart has almost no competitors in its market space.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The bargaining strength of suppliers is one of Porters five forces. The higher the bargaining power, the less attractive a segment is as companies would not have less power to negotiate prices for their supplies.
Bargaining power would be lower where there are less number of suppliers. This is the case with oil companies that have to purchase their oil from OPEC. They have no choice but to buy from OPEC. If OPEC increases oil prices, oil companies don't have the option of buying from another supplier

Think of a business idea that offers opportunity for customer credit. Assuming that you want to adopt this idea, what criteria would you consider to offer a consumer credit?
Answer:
an example for a company that offers back customers credit is Jimmy Johns, they have online rewards that you can sign up with you or phone number or online to earn points for your meals. When you sign up they promote you to go buy a sandwich for your first free sandwich, after that every time you come back and buy something you will be racking up points for free things like sandwiches, chips, cookies, pickles, and drinks.They also have special offers like on your birthday you get a free sub (and after you sign up). If I wanted to do something similar with my business I make would make a rewards systems where you earn points for discounts.
Explanation:
Identify a business idea with which you can proceed. For example, you start a business that designs and creates landscaping for customers (front garden space, back patio, and so on).
This type of business provides opportunity for consumer credit, as most people would not want to pay a huge amount upfront in cash or even through credit cards.
Since the only other way is to offer credit facility, you will have to make a list of questions. You will then have to research the customer’s credit worthiness.
Check for the customer’s credit rating with the credit- and information-management companies, such as TransUnion or Equifax.
Check for the customers’ current financial positions. You can do so by finding out whether they have a secure job or a well-performing business, number of earning members in the family, and so on.
Depending on the information you acquire, you may decide either to offer complete credit, with a relatively shorter credit period, or only offer a certain percentage of credit spread across a wider credit period.

Explanation:
Nancy may suffer from gephyrophobia because she has a fear of bridges. This phobia is the anxiety disorder or specific phobia characterized by the fear of bridges. Thus, the patient of gephyrophobia may avoid routes that will take them over bridges.
Galvanized Products is considering purchasing a new computer system for their enterprise data management system. The vendor has quoted a purchase price of $90,000. Galvanized Products is planning to borrow 1/4th of the purchase price from a bank at 18.00 % compounded annually. The loan is to be repaid using equal annual payments over a 3-year period. The computer system is expected to last 5 years and has a salvage value of $4,600 at that time. Over the 5-year period, Galvanized Products expects to pay a technician $28,000 per year to maintain the system but will save $51,000 per year through increased efficiencies. Galvanized Products uses a MARR of 18.00 %/year to evaluate investments.
What is the present worth of this investment?
The purchase price is 90,000
Suppose that Clancy, an economist from a university in Arizona, and Eileen, an economist from a public television program, are arguing over saving incentives. The following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate: Eileen: I think it's safe to say that, in general, the savings rate of households in today's economy is much lower than it really needs to be to sustain an improvement in living standards. Clancy: I think a switch from the income tax to a consumption tax would bring growth in living standards. Eileen: You really think households would change their saving behavior enough in response to this to make a difference? Because I don't. The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to . Despite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree? Lawyers make up an excessive percentage of elected officials. Tariffs and import quotas generally reduce economic welfare. Minimum wage laws do more to harm low-skilled workers than help them.
Answer:
1. The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to .
scientific judgments.
2. Two economists chosen at random most likely are likely to agree on:
Lawyers make up an excessive percentage of elected officials.
Explanation:
Economists will disagree with each other regarding the appropriate size of the government, the power of trade unions, the adverse effects of unemployment and inflation, the equitable distribution of income, and whether a policy of tax cut is desirable or not. When economists disagree due to differences in scientific judgments, they disagree about a factual matter: the type of tax policy that would lower the budget deficit. In contrast, disagreements due to the differences in values reflect differing assessments on fairness or equity.

Gould Corporation uses the following activity rates from its activity-based costing to assign overhead costs to products: Activity Cost Pool Activity Rate Setting up batches $ 59.71 per batch Processing customer orders $ 73.05 per customer order Assembling products $ 4.40 per assembly hour Data concerning two products appear below: Product K91B Product F65O Number of batches 92 63 Number of customer orders 42 56 Number of assembly hours 496 903 How much overhead cost would be assigned to Product K91B using the activity-based costing system? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Total allocated costs= $10,743.82
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Activity Cost Pool Activity Rate
Setting up batches $ 59.71 per batch
Processing customer orders $ 73.05 per customer order
Assembling products $ 4.40 per assembly hour
Product K91B:
Number of batches 92
Number of customer orders 42
Number of assembly hours 496
To allocate overhead, we need to use the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Setting up= 59.71*92= 5,493.32
Processing= 73.05*42= 3,068.1
Assembling= 4.40*496= 2,182.4
Total allocated costs= $10,743.82
The best estimate of the total cost to manufacture 5,100 units is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a. $1,009,560
Explanation:
Note: The full question is attached
Variable portion = (Total overhead for 5,400 units - Total overhead for 4,400 units) / (5,400 units - 4,400 units)
Variable portion = [($68.30)(5,400) - ($74.30)(4400)/(5,400 - 4,400)
Variable portion = (368,820 - 326,920)/1000
Variable portion = 41.9
Total cost for manufacturing 5,100 units = (5,100) ($77.90 + $50.20 +$ 41.90 )+ (368,820 - (5,400)(41.90)
Total cost for manufacturing 5,100 units = $867,000 + $142,560
Total cost for manufacturing 5,100 units = $1,009,560
If the wage is larger than the marginal revenue product of labor then the profit maximizing firm will
Answer:
decrease the units of labor
Explanation:
The marginal revenue product is basically the market price of the extra goods or services produced by employing one additional unit of resources (in this case labor). If hiring an additional unit of labor results in a higher MRP than the cost of labor, then the company will keep adding labor until the cost of labor is higher than the MRP generated by that unit of labor.
E.g. A worker earns $100 per day. He can produce 40 units and each unit is sold at $5. Since the MRP of labor is higher than the cost of labor, more workers will be hired. But eventually, a worker will only be able to produce 20 or less units (law of decreasing marginal returns), and the MRP will be less than the cost of labor. At that point, the worker will be fired.
aker Industries’ net income is $27000, its interest expense is $5000, and its tax rate is 45%. Its notes payable equals $24000, long-term debt equals $80000, and common equity equals $260000. The firm finances with only debt and common equity, so it has no preferred stock. The data has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file below. Open the spreadsheet and perform the required analysis to answer the questions below. Open spreadsheet What are the firm’s ROE and ROIC? Round your answers to two decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Answer:
ROE = 10.3%
ROE = 10.3%
Explanation:
ROE can be calculated by dividing net income by common equity and ROIC can be calculated by dividing EBIT after tax by the total invested capital.
1) Computation of ROE
ROE = Net Income / Common Equity
ROE = $27,000 / $260,000
ROE = 0.103 or ROE = 10.3%
2) Computation of ROIC
ROIC = [EBIT * (1-tax rate)] / Total Invested capital
ROIC = [$50,000 * (1 - 0.40)] / $365,000
ROIC = 0.0821 or ROIC = 8.21%
EBT = Net income *100 / (100% - T)
EBT = $27,000 x 100% / 60%
EBT = $45,000
EBIT = EBT + interest = $45,000 + $5,000
EBIT = $50,000
Invested capital = Notes payable + Long term Debt + Common stock
Invested capital = $24,000 + $80,000 + $260,000
Invested capital = $365,000
Sarah is using the needs approach to determine how much life insurance to buy. Her cash needs are $30,000; her income needs are $140,000; and special needs are $100,000. Sarah has the following assets: $20,000 in bank accounts, $30,000 in retirement plans, and $40,000 in investment accounts. Sarah owns no individual life insurance. She is covered by a $50,000 group life insurance policy through her employer. Based on this information, how much additional life insurance should Sarah purchase? A. $80,000 B. $130,000 C. $150,000 D. $160,000
Answer:
$130,000
Explanation:
Sarah is making use of the needs approach to determine how much life insurance to buy
The first step is to calculate the total amount of life insurance
Total amount of life insurance = Total needs - total assets
Total need = income needs + cash needs + special needs
= $140,000 + $30,000 + $100,000
= $270,000
Total assets= retirement plan + bank account + investment account
= $30,000 + $20,000 + $40,000
= $90,000
Total amount of life insurance = $270,000-$90,000
= $180,000
Since Sarah is covered by $50,000 group insurance by her employer then the additional life insurance that should be purchased can be calculated as follows
= $180,000 - $50,000
= $130,000

The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $880,000, and it would cost another $19,500 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $463,000. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445, and 0.1481. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $14,500. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $330,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell's marginal tax rate is 25%. A.

The CEO of Harding Media Inc. as asked you to help estimate its cost of common equity. You have obtained the following data: D 0 = $0.85; P0 = $22.00; and dividend growth rate = 6.00% (constant). The CEO thinks, however, that the stock price is temporarily depressed, and that it will soon rise to $40.00. Based on the dividend growth model, by how much would the cost of common from reinvested earnings change if the stock price changes as the CEO expects? a. −1.49% b. −2.03% c. −1.84% d. −2.23% e. −1.66%
Answer:
c. −1.84%
Explanation:
the dividend growth model:
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
currently
P₀ = 22Div₁ = 0.85 x 1.06 = 0.901g = 0.0622 = 0.901 / (Re - 0.06)
Re - 0.06 = 0.901 / 22 = 0.041
Re = 0.041 + 0.06 = 0.1009 = 10.09%
if stock price increases to $40, then
40 = 0.901 / (Re - 0.06)
Re - 0.06 = 0.901 / 40 = 0.0225
Re = 0.0225 + 0.06 = 0.0825 = 8.25%
decrease in Re = 8.25% - 10.09% = -1.84%

"You are considering an investment in the FIN340 Company and want to evaluate the firm's free cash flow; From the income statement, you see that FIN340 Company earned an EBIT of $1,725,000, paid taxes of $326,025, and its depreciation expense was $86,250; FIN340 Company's gross fixed assets increased by $500,000 from 2017 to 2018. The firm's current assets increased by $545,000 and spontaneous current liabilities increased by $97,000 - What is FIN340 Company's free cash flow in 2018?
A. "$170,725
B. "$450,975
C. "$1,398,975
D. "$1,485,225
E. "$364,725
D. "$537,225
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Free cash flow is the cash flow available to all the providers of capital of a firm
FCF = EBIT ( 1 - Tax rate) + deprecation - fixed capital - working capital
Tax rate = $326,025 / $1,725,000 = 18.9%
$1,725,000(1 - 0.189) + $86,250 - $500,000 - ( $545,000 - $97,000)
= $537,225
"You wrote a piece of software that does a better job of allowing computers to network than any other program designed for this purpose. A large networking company wants to incorporate your software into its systems and is offering to pay you $516,000 today, plus $516,000 at the end of each of the following six years, for permission to do this. If the appropriate interest rate is 6 percent, what is the present value of the cash flow stream that the company is offering you? (Round factor values to 4 decimal places, e.g. 1.5215 and final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)"
Answer: $3,053,326.80
Explanation:
Constant payments are annuities so the $516,000 annual payment is one.
Seeing as you will get a payment of $516,000 today, that is the present value of that first payment. The total present value therefore will be that first $516,000 plus the present value of the annuity discounted at 6% for 6 years.
Present value of Annuity = Annuity * Present value interest factor for 6%, 6 years.
= 516,000 * 4.9173
= $2,537,326.80
Present Value of cashflow;
= 516,000 + 2,537,326.80
= $3,053,326.80
The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $15.00 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost. Last year, the company sold 36,000 of these balls, with the following results: Sales (36,000 balls) $ 900,000 Variable expenses 540,000 Contribution margin 360,000 Fixed expenses 263,000 Net operating income $ 97,000 Required: 1. Compute (a) last year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls, and (b) the degree of operating leverage at last year’s sales level. 2. Due to an increase in labor rates, the company estimates that next year's variable expenses will increase by $3.00 per ball. If this change takes place and the selling price per ball remains constant at $25.00, what will be next year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The company has a ball that sells for $25.
Unitary variable cost= $15.00
Fixed expenses 263,000
To calculate the contribution margin ratio, we need to use the following formula:
Contribution margin ratio= contribution margin / selling price
Contribution margin ratio= (25 - 15) / 25
Contribution margin ratio= 0.4
Now, the break-even point in units:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 263,000 / 10
Break-even point in units= 26,300 units
Degree of operating leverage= contribution margin / operating income
Degree of operating leverage= 360,000 / 97,000
Degree of operating leverage= 3.71
If the unitary variable cost increases by $3:
Contribution margin ratio= (25 - 18) / 25
Contribution margin ratio= 0.28
Break-even point in units= 263,000 / 8
Break-even point in units= 32,875
At the end of the preceding year, XYZ Inc. had a deferred tax asset of $17,500,000, attributable to its only temporary difference of $70,000,000 for estimated expenses. At the end of the current year, the temporary difference is $45,000,000. At the beginning of the year there was no valuation account for the deferred tax asset. At year-end, XYZ Inc. now estimates that it is more likely than not that one-third of the deferred tax asset will never be realized. Taxable income is $12,000,000 for the current year and the tax rate is 25% for all years. Required: In its current year balance sheet, what amount should XYZ report as income tax payable? In its current year balance sheet, what amount should XYZ report as deferred tax asset (net of the allowance)? In its current year income statement, what should XYZ report as income tax expense? In its current year income statement, what should XYZ report as net income? Prepare the journal entry to record XYZ's income tax expense for the current year.
Answer:
Kindly check the explanation section.
Explanation:
So, we are given the following data or parameters in this particular Question which is going to help us in solving this particular Question.
=> the taxable income = $12,000,000 for the current year.
=> the tax rate is 25% for all years.
=> deferred tax asset = $17,500,000.
=> The temporary difference = $70,000,000 for estimated expenses. => "At the end of the current year, the temporary difference is $45,000,000."
So, let us dive straight into the solution;
Step one: calculate or Determine the income tax expense.
So, we have ( $45,000,000 × 25%) - $17,500,000 = − $6,250,000. This is recorded in the credit side as $6,250,000.
Step two: Determine the income tax payable.
=> taxable income × tax rate for all years = 12,000,000 × 25% = 3,000,000. This is recorded at the credit side.
Step three: Determine the valuation allowance in deferred.
The valuation allowance in deferred = 1/3[ 45,000,000 × 24] = 3,750,000. This is also recorded in the Credit side.
Paris Company had common stock of $350,000 and retained earnings of $490,000. London Inc. had common stock of $700,000 and retained earnings of $980,000. On January 1, 2018, London issued 34,000 shares of common stock with a $12 par value and a $35 fair value for all of Paris Company's outstanding common stock. This combination was accounted for using the acquisition method. Immediately after the combination, what was the amount of total consolidated net assets? A. $2,520,000. B. $1,190,000. C. $1,680,000. D. $2,870,000.
Answer: D. $2870000
Explanation:
Consolidated Assets are the assets that a company owes whether directly or indirectly through a subsidiary which will then be shown on the consolidated balance sheet of the company.
From the information given, the amount of total consolidated net assets will be calculated as:
= ($34000 × 35) + $700,000 + $980,000
= $1,190,000 + $700,000 + $980,000
= $2,870,000
