When considering sources for research, Maria should take she must consider sources that meet the following requirements:
DepthObjectivityCurrency of SourceAuthorityPurposeExplanation:
Depth: A source with just a simple cursory overview may not suffice. It is pertinent to elect a source that treats the subject matter in sufficient depth and which uses data to support its position on the topic she is researching Objectivity: If any source takes a biased position on the topic Maria is researching, then it is not a good source. Maria wants to ensure that the author of the source has not taken a position that does not have a balanced view. If any source is not properly cited it should not count.The currency of source: Simple logic requires that a source that is more up-to-date should be preferred above one that is dated. The rule of thumb requires that where possible, sources cited should not be older than 3 years.Authoritative: The more qualified an Author is in the field under consideration, the more reputable the company it works for, the more authoritative that source is considered to bePurpose: Sometimes a text may contain several sub-topics which build up to buttress its primary purpose. Sometimes, these sub-topics may deviate slightly from the main topic. To cite from the sub-topics because it aligns with her work would be a mistake on Maria's part. For example, if she cites from a research proposal whose main topic is Photo Journalism in the Wild West, but which references or the importance of social media in one of its paragraphs, that citation would not be considered adequate because the purpose of the main body is not specific to her work.Cheers
Financial statements are inexorably moving to a model where all assets and liabilities will be measured on the basis of fair value rather than historical cost.
Required:
a. Discuss the conceptual differences between historical cost and fair value.
b. Discuss the merits and demerits of the two alternative measurement models.
c. What types of assets (or liabilities) more readily lend themselves to fair value measurements? Can we visualize a scenario where all assets are measured using fair value?
d. What are the likely effects of adopting the fair value model on reported income?
Answer:
Part a
historical cost = this is when we carry assets and liabilities at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization.
fair value = this is when we carry assets and liabilities at amount that they could be exchanged for at arms length between market participants
Part b
Historical Cost
Merits : Value are easy to obtain since they are generated internally
Demerits : Is not very accurate.
Fair Value
Merits : Accurate method as it reflects market situation
Demerit : Costly as data and information is obtained externally
Part c
Assets : Investment Property and Financial assets measured through Profit and Loss
Liabilities : Bonds
Part d
Income is shown more accurately and eliminates biases form estimates.
Explanation:
Historical Method carries assets and liabilities at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization while Fair Value Model carries assets and liabilities at amount that they could be exchanged for at arms length between market participants
The firm's fixed costs are $60 000, variable cost per unit is $15 and selling price per unit is $20. The contribution margin per unit is: Group of answer choices $5 $15 $20 $35 g
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
With regards to the above, the contribution margin is computed as;
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Selling price per unit = $20
Variable cost per unit = $15
Then,
Contribution margin per unit = $20 - $15
Contribution margin per unit = $5

why do you think that the npv method choosen by you is the most suitable method in ecaluating the proposed investment?
Answer:
Hind Petrochemicals Company
The reason that the NPV method is the most suitable method in evaluating the proposed investment is that
the NPV reduces all the cash outflows and inflows to their present value to assess their relative values vis-a-vis the time value of money.
Explanation:
NPV, therefore, creates a common denominator for project evaluation. If the cash outflows in their present values are more than the cash inflows in their present values, then Hind may need to reconsider its decision to buy the refineries from the government. Using NPV enables Hind Petrochemicals to compute the revenues and costs in their present values and cash flow forms.

Delta Screen Corporation is currently operating at 60% of capacity and producing 6,000 screens annually. The normal selling price is $750 per screen. They recently received an offer from a company in Germany to purchase 2,000 screens for $500 per unit. Delta has not previously sold products in Germany. Budgeted production costs for 6,000 and 8,000 screens follow:Units Produced 6,000 8,000 Direct Materials Cost $ 750,000 $ 1,000,000Direct Labor Cost 750,000 1,000,000Variable Overhead 900,000 1,200,000 Fixed Overhead 1,200,000 1,200,00 Total Cost 3,600,000 4,400,000Full Cost per Unit 600 550Delta’s marketing manager believes that although the price offered by the German customer is lower than current price, the order should be accepted to gain a foothold in the German market. The production manager, however, believes that the order should be rejected because the unit cost is higher than the price offered.If the president of Delta were to call on you to resolve the difference in opinion, what would you recommend? Explain.What is the minimum price for the special order if Delta is operating at full capacity?
Answer:
a. I would recommend the the special order should be accepted.
b. The minimum price for the special order is the current selling price of $750.
Explanation:
a. If the president of Delta were to call on you to resolve the difference in opinion, what would you recommend?
Because the existing data's format and findings are deceiving, I would suggest to the president to let us perform a differential analysis before making a recommendation.
Note: See the attached excel file for a analysis of accepting the order.
In the attached excel file, the following calculation is done:
Special order revenue = Difference revenue = Units of special order * Special order price per unit = 2,000 * $500 = $1,000,000
Revenue with the special order = Revenue without the special order + Special order revenue = $4,500,000 + $1,000,000 = $4,500,000
From the differential analysis in the attached excel, it can be observed that accepting the order will increase profit by $200,000.
Therefore, I would recommend the the special order should be accepted.
b. What is the minimum price for the special order if Delta is operating at full capacity?
Since other sales opportunities has be forgone if the special order is accepted if Delta is operating at full capacity, the minimum price for the special order must be or is the current selling price of $750.

Units of inventory sold = Units of inventory purchased - Units of inventory returned = 100 - 20 = 80
Therefore, the journal entries will be as follows:
Date Details Debit ($) Credit ($)
June 5 Inventory (100 * $10) 1,000
Accounts payable 1,000
(To inventory purchased on account.)
June 9 Accounts payable (20 * $10 ) 200
Inventory 200
(To record inventory return.)
June 16 Account receivable (80 * $15) 1,200

Answer:
SafeRide, Inc.
a. The financial implications of accepting the order are that total production cost will increase by $315,000 with a corresponding increase in sales revenue of $540,000, and an increase in net income by $225,000.
b. Under full capacity, the total production cost will increase by $1,485,000 for adding additional facilities while the sales revenue would increase by $540,000, resulting to a loss of $945,000.
c. Under full-capacity circumstances, there is a financing disadvantage of accepting the order because the order will entail additional capacity and facilities, resulting to a loss of $945,000.

1. Sharon, a newly engaged woman, saw an advertisement in a bridal magazine for a beautiful pearl necklace priced at $69.99 from Precious Jewelry. She thought the necklace would be a wonderful present for her bridesmaids, so she ordered 5 necklaces from Precious Jewelry. After a few weeks, Sharon received a letter, along with her returned check from Precious Jewelry. The letter stated that the jeweler was sorry they could not fill her order because they had been overwhelmed with so many requests that their supply of necklaces ran out very quickly.
a. List the 3 elements of an offer and describe each (in your own words).
b. Did Precious Jewelry make an offer when they placed the ad in the magazine? Did Sharon make an offer when she placed the order? Why or why not?
c. What will be the likely outcome if Sharon sues Precious Jewelry to force them to fill her order? Explain your answer.
Answer:
a. The three elements which make an offer valid are communication, commitment, and definite terms. The communication of an offer happens between the offeror and the offeree and not with the general public, as depicted by the ad. Commitment in an offer requires that Sharon and Precious Jewelry are identified as the involved parties and are committed to enter a valid contract. Definite terms require no ambiguity.
b. Precious Jewelry did not make an offer when it placed the ad in the magazine. The ad was an invitation to treat. Sharon initiated the offer when she ordered for the jewelries. At this point, Precious Jewelry could accept or reject the offer, depending on its capacity.
c. If Sharon sues Precious Jewelry to force it to fill her order, she does not have the good standing required to enforce specific performance of a contract because there is no basis for the existence of a contract between her and Precious Jewelry. Moreover, Sharon’s offer was never accepted by Precious Jewelry and there was no consideration.
Explanation:
A valid contract will exist between Sharon and Precious Jewelry when the five elements of a contract are present. These include valid offer, acceptance, mutual consent (or assent), consideration, and legality (including the capacity of the contracting parties).

1) Please give an example of a market that comes close to being considered perfectly competitive.2) What does it mean when firms in a perfectly competitive market earn $0 in economic profits?
Answer:
the agricultural market e.g market for oranges
2. A firm earns zero economic profit when accounting profit equals implicit cost.
it means that they only earn accounting profit
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
In an agricultural market e.g. market for oranges, the goods are identical and the prices are the same.
A firm earns economic profit when accounting profit equals implicit cost. So, it only earns accounting profit

What is the present value of an investment that will pay $2,000 at the end of the year when interest is compounded annually at 5.10%
Answer:
the present value of an investment is $1,902.94
Explanation:
The computation of the present value of an investment is given below:
present value
= Future value ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^time period
=$2,000 ÷ (1+.051)^1
= $2,000 ÷ 1.051
= $1902.94
Hence, the present value of an investment is $1,902.94
Part 1
a) Well done! From 2007 Q4 to 2009 Q2, real GDP fell from $15,762 to $15,134.1, or by -3.58%.
b) That's right! The deflator rose from 93.15 to 94.84, or 182%. If you put 1.74%, that's an approximation.
Part 2. Good! In each of those quarters, real GDP was lower than in the previous quarter.
Part 3. You had the right idea, but you assumed that real GDP grow at 3% for only one year
By the end of 2009, the economy had recovered slightly; however, the economy was still smaller than it was two years prior. From 2007 to 2009, real GDP had fallen from $15,762 billion to $15,356 billion. How deep was the recession?
Suppose that the long-run growth trend of real GDP was 3% per year. If the economy had grown at 3% per year since 2007, there was a shortfall of_____billion at the end of 2009.
Answer: $1,365.91
Explanation:
Shortfall = Expected GDP - Actual GDP
Expected GDP in 2009 is based on the premise that the economy has grown by 3% since 2007.
Expected GDP in 2009 will therefore be;
= 15,762 * ( 1 + 3%)²
= $16,721.91
Shortfall = 16,721.91 - 15,356
= $1,365.91

You are analyzing ABC Company, a computer manufacturer. You notice that inventory turnover this year is significantly lower than in prior years. You also notice that accounts receivable turnover is significantly lower this year when compared to previous years. Provide three explanations that would be consistent with your observation for inventory turnover and include an explanation of whether these would be of concern to you, as well as what the effect might be on the next period's financial results. In addition, provide three explanations that would be consistent with your observation of the accounts receivable turnover, and explain whether these would be of concern to you.
Answer:
ABC Company
1. Observation: Current year's inventory turnover is significantly lower than those of previous years.
Explanations:
1. Lower inventory turnover implies weaker sales for the current period than those of previous years.
2. Lower inventory turnover results from excessive inventory, which increases storage costs and interest expenses.
3. The ratio may also indicate that the demand for the product is declining rapidly. Many reasons can be adduced for this situation. Little marketing efforts, bad product, and lack of product competitiveness.
a) The formula for computing the inventory turnover equals Cost of goods sold/Average Inventory. The ratio shows the number of times goods are sold in a period. When goods are sold more frequently, sales activities increase, including revenue and profit.
2. Observation: Also current year's accounts receivable turnover is significantly lower than in previous years.
Explanations:
1. Billing inefficiency can contribute to lower accounts receivable turnover.
2. Poor credit policy may give rise to inefficient collection process, excessive bad debts, long credit days, bad customers, and lack of incentives to customers to settle their invoices.
3. Lastly, lower accounts receivable turnover may point to declining demand of the product by customers.
b) The formula for calculating the accounts receivable turnover is Net Credit Sales divided by Average receivables. The ratio determines the effectiveness of the company's credit policy.
