Answer:
Coronado Corporation
a) The preferred stock is noncumulative and nonparticipating:
Allocation Preferred Stock Common Stock
of Dividends
$87,500 $17,100 ($190,000 * 9%) $70,400 ($87,500 - 17,100)
b) The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating:
Allocation Preferred Stock Common Stock
of Dividends
$87,500 $51,300 ($190,000 * 9%)*3 $36,200 ($87,500 - 51,300)
c) The preferred stock is cumulative and participating
Allocation Preferred Stock Common Stock
of Dividends
$87,500 $48,944 $38,556
Amount due $17,100 ($190,000 * 9%)
Participation $31,844 = $31,844/$87,500 * 100 = 36.4%
Participation = $87,500 - ($17,100 + $38,556) = $31,844
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Outstanding capital stock:
9% Preferred stock = 1,900 shares of $100 par value ($190,000)
Common stock = 5,400 shares of $50 par value ($270,000)
Assuming retained earnings = $87,500 to be paid out in dividends.
No preference stock dividends were paid out during the last 2 years.
1) The preferred stock is noncumulative and nonparticipating:
Allocation Preferred Stock Common Stock
of Dividends
$87,500 $17,100 ($190,000 * 9%) $70,400 ($87,500 - 17,100)
2) The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating:
Allocation Preferred Stock Common Stock
of Dividends
$87,500 $51,300 ($190,000 * 9%)*3 $36,200 ($87,500 - 51,300)
3) The preferred stock is cumulative and participating
Allocation Preferred Stock Common Stock
of Dividends
$87,500 $48,944 $38,556
Amount due $17,100 ($190,000 * 9%)
Participation $31,844 = $31,844/$87,500 * 100 = 36.4%
Participation = $87,500 - ($17,100 + $38,556) = $31,844

On January 1, 2019, Cullumber Corporation acquired machinery at a cost of $1650000. Cullumber adopted the straight-line method of depreciation for this machine and had been recording depreciation over an estimated life of ten years, with no residual value.

The yield is stated as an annual rate of return. For example 7% per year.
Usually the longer the maturity period of bonds the higher the yield of the bond
You wish to retire in 20 years, at which time you want to have accumulated enough money to receive an annual annuity of $24,000 for 25 years after retirement. During the period before retirement you can earn 10 percent annually, while after retirement you can earn 12 percent on your money. What annual contributions to the retirement fund will allow you to receive the $24,000 annuity
Answer:
$3,286.52
Explanation:
Interest rate per annum = 12.00%
Number of years = 25
Number of compounding per per annum = 1
Interest rate per period (r) = 12.00%
Number of periods (n) = 25
Payment per period (P) = $24,000
PV of $24,000 payments after 20 years = P * [1 - (1/(1+r)^n)]/ r
PV of $24,000 payments after 20 years = 24000*[1-(1/(1+12%)^25]/12%
PV of $24,000 payments after 20 years = $188,235.34
Interest rate per annum = 10.00%
Number of years= 20
Number of payments per per annum = 1
Interest rate per period (r) = 10.00%
Number of periods (n) = 20
Future value of annuity (FVA) = $188,235
Annual contribution (P) = FVA/ ([ (1+r)^n - 1] / r)
Annual contribution (P) = 188235/(((1+10%)^20-1)/10%)
Annual contribution (P) = $3,286.52

The above is an incomplete question. From a similar question, we were given cost of goods sold to be $60,800.
Firm's day sales in inventory is computed as;
= (Ending inventory / Cost of goods sold) × 365
Given that;
Ending inventory = $41,000
Cost of goods sold = $60,800
= ($41,000/$60,800) × 365

You work in the finance division of a company listed in the Stock Exchange. You have just learned that your supervisor has been using infomation on quarterty retums, prior to the time they are made public, to trade in the company's stock. Is this unethical? If yes, name the elhical issue. Explain why you think there is or not an ethical issue
Answer:
Yes it is. Ethical issue ⇒ Insider Trading.Explanation:
Trading on the stock exchange is supposed to be as fair as possible so that every investor has a fair chance of making returns. If a person - like this supervisor - is using information that is material but not publicly disclosed yet to trade on markets, the fairness of the market is compromised because the person will have an edge over other investors which will enable them make unfair profits.
Information on quarterly returns is usually material so we can expect it to be material here as well which means that the supervisor is engaged in insider trading.
Insider trading is not only unethical but also highly illegal. Reporting your supervisor can get them sent to jail.

You start a new business in town that is very successful. However, you find out after the first year of operation that you must have a safety permit, and that safety permit must be obtained upon commencement of your business. Obviously you have violated the law. You never had any training in running a business nor did anyone tell you about this law. You can tell the judge you did not know what the law was and he will dismiss your case because of that.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
b. False
Explanation:
False, the judge will not dismiss your case because the fact that you did not know about the safety permit does not exonerate you from fulfilling or breaching the law.

Recently, a group of university students decided to incorporate for the purposes of selling a process to recycle the waste product from manufacturing cheese. Some of the initial costs involved were legal fees and office expenses incurred in starting the business, state incorporation fees, and stamp taxes. One student wishes to charge these costs against revenue in the current period. Another wishes to defer these costs and amortize them in the future. Which student is correct
Answer:
The student wishing to defer these costs and amortize them in the future.
Explanation:
Indeed, according to standard regulatory requirements, all the initial costs associated with incorporating a business cannot be deducted all at once in the first year of operation.
However, these costs are spread over a long period of time. And one way to do this is to amortize them in the future. Therefore, the second student deferring cost is correct.
BSW Corporation has a bond issue outstanding with an annual coupon rate of 5.4 percent paid quarterly and four years remaining until maturity. The par value of the bond is $1,000. Determine the fair present value of the bond if market conditions justify a 11 percent, compounded quarterly, required rate of return. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Answer:
$820.74
Explanation:
Rate = 11%/4 = 0.0275
Nper = 4*4 = 16
Pmt = 1000*5.4%*1/4 = $13.50
Fv = $1,000.00
Present value of bond = PV (Rate, Nper, Pmt, Fv)
Present value of bond = PV(0.0275, 16, 13.50, 1000)
Present value of bond = $820.74
So, the fair present value of the bond if market conditions justify a 11 percent, compounded quarterly is $820.74
Keuka Studies does custom metal sculptures of horses and other animals. A horse sculpture is composed of numerous parts. They use a lathe to construct two types of parts. The "Body" part is used to support the torso of the horse and the "Leg" part is used to support the legs. Each horse sculpture needs 1 Body part and 4 Leg parts. Switching between either of the types of parts requires 12 minutes. Once ready to produce, the lathe produces a Body part in 3 minutes and a single Leg part in 3 minutes. The lathe only makes horse parts. For parts (a)-(d) assume Keuka operates a cyclic schedule in which they make 100 Body parts and then 400 Leg parts. Furthermore, assume the lathe is the bottleneck. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.
a. What is the maximum number of horse sculptures Keuka can make per hour? Do not round intermediate calculations. Enteryour answer as a percentage rounded to 2 decimal places.
b. What is the utilization (%) of the lathe?
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation of the maximum number of horse sculptures can make per hour is shown below:
= (12 × 2) + (100 × 3) + (400 × 3)
= 24 + 300 + 1200
= 1524 minutes
Now cycle time in hours
= 1524 ÷ 60
= 25.40 hours
Number of horse scupltures could made is
= 400 ÷ 4
= 100
In per hour, it would be
= 100 ÷ 25.40 hours
= 3.94 hours
b. The utilization rate is
= (100 × 3) + (400 × 3) ÷ 1524 minutes
= 300 + 1200 ÷ 1524 minutes
= 1500 ÷ 1524 minutes
= 98.43%

The toy buyer had the option of ordering stuffed animals directly from the manufacturer or from a nearby wholesaler. The manufacturer will not ship orders for less than $1,200 total list price. Delivery typically requires five weeks, and freight averages 2.5% of total billed cost. Trade discounts on this merchandise are 40% and 10%; terms are 2/10, n/30.
A wholesaler, located in the retailer's area, stocks many of the same stuffed animals. He does not require a minimum order and will deliver at no charge in the area if the order has a billed cost of at least $500. The manufacturer and wholesaler base cost on the same list price; however, the wholesaler sells with trade discounts of 40% and 8% and terms of 1/15. n/30.
Required:
What is the difference in the total net cost (including freight) of merchandise with a total list price of $1, 200 from these two vendors?
Answer:
difference between supplies = $4.68
Explanation:
cost of merchandise from manufacturer if paid within discount period:
$1,200 x (1 - 40%) = $720
$720 x (1 - 10%) = $648
freight cost = $648 x 2.5% = $16.20
discount for early payment = $648 x 2% = $12.96
total cost = $651.24
cost of merchandise from wholesaler if paid within discount period:
$1,200 x (1 - 40%) = $720
$720 x (1 - 8%) = $662.40
discount for early payment = $648 x 1% = $6.48
total cost = $655.92
difference between supplies = $4.68
Cost of merchandise from manufacturer if paid within discount period:
$1,200 x (1 - 40%) = $720 and $720 x (1 - 10%) = $648
Cost of merchandiseFreight cost = $648 x 2.5% = $16.20
Discount for early payment = $648 x 2% = $12.96
Then Total cost is = $651.24
Then the price of merchandise from wholesaler if paid within discount period: $1,200 x (1 - 40%) = $720 and $720 x (1 - 8%) = $662.40
After that discount for early payment is= $648 x 1% = $6.48
Then the full cost is = $655.92
Thus, the right answer is that the difference between supplies = $4.68

The board of directors of Milligan Company has decided to dispose of an unneeded parcel of land through a property dividen to their shareholders. Invidivdual homesites have been identified on the land, and those individual sites will be deeded to the shareholders in proportion to their stock holdings. On december 31, 2013, the board of directors declares the property dividend. The land is to be officially deeded to the shareholders as of January 15, 2014 (i.e., pay date).
The board estimates the land to be worth approximately $200,000 on December 31, 2013. The book value of the land prior to the declaration is $175,000. On January 5, 2014, however, the city of Green Valley announces that the adjoining land will become the home of new recreational area, which will cause the value of the Milligan land to increase in value by an additional $100,000.
Required:
Prepare below journal entries to record the declaration of the property dividend on December 31, 2013 and the payment of the dividend on January 15, 2014.
Solution :
The declaration date of the dividends of Milligan Company is Dec,31 2013 on which the loss or the profit on the property will be booked. The book value in this case is $ 175,000 while the FMV is 200,000 dollars. Therefore the gain or the profit is = 200,000 - 150,000 = $ 500,00.
Therefore to gain a profit on the land appreciation of $500,00.
Declaring the dividends on Dec 31, 2013 from the retained earnings, that is the value of FMV of the land is given as :
The earnings retained = 200,000
To the dividends payable = 200,000
On the dividend payment date, Jan 5 2014
Dividends payable at = $200,000
To the land = 200,000
So the FMV or the value of the land is not relevant after Dec 31.
Which of the following events would cause a bank to reduce a depositor's account?
The depositor orders new checks through the bank at a cost of $50.
The bank collects a note receivable and related interest on the depositor's behalf.
There are outstanding checks drawn on the account at month-end.
There are deposits in transit on the account at month-end.
The bank corrects an error from previous month by adding $75 to the depositor account
Answer:
There are two events that would reduce a depositor's account:
- the depositor orders new checks through the bank for $50
- there are outstanding checks drawn on the account at the month-end
Explanation:
These situations will decrease the depositor's account balance by $50 and for the amount of the outstanding checks (which amounts were not stated).
For each of the following scenarios, show how each market is affected. Label the initial equilibrium price P1, and the original quantity Q1. Label the new equilibrium price P2 and the quantity Q2.Due to perfect weather conditions, there is a larger than expected crop of oranges this year. The weather conditions do not affect the crop of tangerines. Citrus juice is made from either oranges or tangerines and consumers have no preference for one or the other. Lastly, citrus juice and oatmeal are complements and oats are required to make oatmeal.a. Market for oranges,b. Market for citrus juice,c. Market for tangerines,d. Market for oatmeal,e. Market for oats.
Answer:
See answers below; in details.
Explanation:
A rephrase of the question:
Consider the following conditions and describe what happens to equilibrium price and quantity in each of the listed markets.
(A) MARKET FOR ORANGES
- There are better (or perfect) weather conditions this year
- This will bring about a larger harvest of oranges
- Q2 > Q1
- P2 < P1 , owing to the law of demand and supply. Truly, in this case, 'all other things' such as consumer taste are constant and the weather conditions didn't increase or reduce the turnout of tangerines.
(B) MARKET FOR CITRUS JUICE
- The information given (where consumer taste is constant) shows that the law of rationality applies. Customers/Consumers are rational. They'll go for the cheaper type of citrus juice and this price depends on the magnitude of raw materials such as the tangerines or oranges themselves.
- Given a higher output of oranges, the market for citrus juice will boom. Hence Q2 of citrus juice > Q1 of citrus juice
- P2 of citrus juice < P1 of citrus juice
(C) MARKET FOR TANGERINES
- The information given about absence of consumer preference shows that oranges & tangerines are perfect substitutes.
- Substitution here means that one can perfectly replace the other and/or both fruits give the same value to end users.
- This means that there'll be less purchase of tangerines (either raw or juice) owing to the increased availability of oranges. Keep in mind that the quantity of tangerines harvested or produced did not fall in the year.
- So Q2 = Q1
- There is less purchase of tangerines this year and tangerine is a perishable good (it spoils or loses value with time) so, to encourage consumer purchase, producers in the market for tangerine will reduce the price. So P2 < P1
(D) MARKET FOR OATMEAL & (E) MARKET FOR OATS
- Citrus juice and oatmeal are complements. This means that they go together; in consumption. Just like the consumption of PMS is complementary to the consumption of car tires.
- The markets for oats and oatmeal will boom because the market for citrus juice is booming.
- As people consume more citrus juice, they'll purchase and consume more oatmeal.
- The output of oats under this weather condition isn't given so, we'll assume it to be constant.
- So the quantity of oats is constant but the price of oats will rise because its demand will rise or has risen. Q2 = Q1 ; P2 > P1
- In the market for oatmeal, quantity will increase and price will rise, due to higher demand. Q2 > Q1 ; P2 > P1
A company produces and sells hair dryers in a market where price (p) and demand (D) are related follows: p = $35+ (3,000)/D-(4,800)/D2 The fixed cost (Ct) is $800 per month and the variable cost per hair dryer (c.) is $38. - Add to % E Q
With reference to the company in Question 1, assume price and demand are unrelated. The company sells the hair dryers for $80 each if they spend $8,000 per month on advertising (C.). CF and c, remain as indicated in Question 1. The maximum production capacity is 5,000 hair dryers per month.
a) What is the demand breakeven point?
b) Is the company's demand breakeven point (in %) more sensitive to 10% increase in sales price or 20% reduction in variable costs? Explain your answer.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that:
[tex]p = 35 + \dfrac{3000}{D}- \dfrac{4800}{D^2}[/tex]
The total revenue = p × D
∴
multiplying both sides by D; we have:
[tex]p\times D = 35 \times D + \dfrac{3000}{D} \times D- \dfrac{4800}{D^2}\times D[/tex]
[tex]= 35 D +3000}{D} - \dfrac{4800}{D}[/tex]
The total cost = (Per unit Variable cost × D) + Advertising cost
The total cost = 38D + 8000
The selling price = 80
From D units, the total revenue = 80D
∴
The break-even will take place when total revenue equals total cost.
So;
8000 + 38D = 80D
8000 = 80 D - 38D
8000 =42D
D = 8000/42
D = 190.48
(b)
Suppose the new sales price
Then;
8000 + 38D = 88D
8000 = 88D - 38D
8000 = 50D
D = 160
Hence, the break-even decreases by:
[tex]\Big(\dfrac{190.48-160}{190.48}\times 100\Big) = 16\%[/tex]
However; suppose the variable cost = 30.4
Then;
8000 + 30.4D = 80D
8000 = 80D - 30.4D
8000 = 49.6D
D = 8000/49.6
D = 161.29
Therefore;
This implies that the break-even decreased by:
[tex]\Big(\dfrac{190.48-161.29}{190.48}\times 100\Big) = 15.32\%[/tex]
Hence, the break-even is more likely to change by 10% in its selling price.
